Chapter 47: First Day of the Rain (IV) “You must kill her, your God…
"Tsk, I'm so envious. It's so easy to give up your life."
Chu Ji leaned on the monster and made sarcastic remarks.
"This formation is impenetrable to living beings, but can penetrate inanimate objects. It seems Immortal Lord Miaomiao has deep feelings for you, sister."
Mingyao on the side didn't care what Chuji said.
She timidly imitated Chu Ji, bending over and trying to carefully check Xuanxiu's situation.
However, the formation appeared and disappeared intermittently, and Xuanxiu's presence and disappearance in it were unpredictable, which made her afraid to act rashly for a while.
I had no choice but to separate Chu Ji quietly.
She had seen Xuanxiu die many times in the ghost town before. Although he would be resurrected, he needed a buffer period each time. If Chuji attacked him now, she would probably suffer a lot.
Mingyao's thoughts naturally could not be hidden from Chuji.
But she didn't care. This mortal was so stupid that he knew nothing about the fairy mountain and the people of destiny. What's the point of guarding against her? Even if Immortal Lord Miaomiao was dead and not moving, she couldn't kill him.
Chu Ji floated above the demon's head and looked at the formation which was halfway completed. Only half was left. As long as she waited a little longer, her plan would be accomplished.
Chu Ji curled his lips, not knowing whether this immortal was really stupid or just pretending.
What difference does it make whether he goes in or not? Once this formation is destroyed from the outside or the inside, Mingyao will suffer casualties.
It's just a waste of time.
But it's interesting that he can come in.
After a while, the formation was completed. When he saw her taking over Mingyao's body with his own eyes, he didn't know whether this immortal king would be willing to take action.
With a rather malicious smile on his lips, Chu Ji, in a good mood, floated back to Mingyao's soul and took a look.
I saw the demonic energy and immortal power entangled. This immortal king looked like both a demon and an immortal. Although he was conscious, he could not open his eyes.
It would take a while anyway, so Chu Ji didn't mind continuing to chat with Ming Yao. After so many years, the plan was about to be completed, so naturally she had to talk about her happiness.
"It seems that the immortal power in the immortal king is not enough now."
Chu Ji took a few steps back and sat down, swinging his legs. "I guess it will take some time for the Immortal Lord to wake up. Why don't I talk to my sister about something else first?"
"Sister, do you know that Immortal Lord Miaomiao was born..."
"I know." Mingyao interrupted Chu Ji. She didn't want to listen to Chu Ji's nagging anymore. "I saw it in the immortal mountain classics."
Chu Ji raised an eyebrow: "I thought that sister had been a piece of wood in the fairy mountain for so many years, but I never thought that sister had read some books."
"Then you know that this so-called innate immortal power does not belong to Immortal Lord Miaomiao."
Seeing Mingyao's expression frozen for a moment, Chuji laughed out loud. This mortal didn't even know how to conceal his expression. Being able to live to this day probably proves the saying that fools have good fortune.
"Sister." Chu Ji's tone became more cheerful. "Since you don't know, I'll tell you."
"The Immortal Mountain guards the human world, and the Xuan family is the head of the Immortal Mountain. Although they are respectfully called Immortal Lords, they are not immortals in the final analysis."
"Miaomiao Immortal Lord and Xuan Hui were born together. Xuan Hui inherited the bloodlines of both the Xuan and Chu families and is the future leader of the Immortal Mountain. As for Miaomiao Immortal Lord...he was just a ball of immortal energy at first."
"Immortal energy comes from the heavens. In the past, there were also some gifted people who were born with immortal energy in the immortal mountains."
"This immortal energy may transform into a sword, a birthmark, or some accessories to prove the extraordinary nature of the person born."
"But the immortal energy that accompanied Xuan Hui's birth was exceptionally...large."
"It was so big that it was in the belly, and it absorbed the Chu family's bloodline and transformed into a child who looked very similar to Xuan Hui."
"This child possesses what is known as a natural immortal body."
"The remaining innate energy was transformed into ten points of immortal power, stored in his body. He could only use seven or eight points at most."
Chu Ji said this, glancing at Immortal Lord Miaomiao, whose eyes were still closed, with a half-smile and a rather disdainful tone.
"He wasn't really a human at first. He was just a living being that stored immortal energy."
"The Chu family's patriarch at the time, Xuan Hui's biological mother, was unrivaled in the world in terms of numerology. She acted decisively and used the power of her bloodline to control five percent of Xuan Hui's immortal energy, diverting it for his own use."
"And with only the remaining three or four percent of immortal power he could control, he was able to become unrivaled and even possess an immortal body."
"Sister, if it were you, and you possessed this kind of immortal power, would you be willing to lose it?"
Without waiting for Mingyao to answer, Chuji spoke out his own answer: "If it were me, I would be reluctant to do so."
Mingyao was silent for a while. It was human nature. With such power in hand, who would be willing to lose it?
"What a pity..." Chu Ji sighed softly.
But the rest of the words haven't come out yet.
Mingyao only felt a cool breeze behind him and a stream of air passed by his ear at an extremely fast speed.
Chu Ji, who had been handling the situation with ease, suddenly felt a stream of air pierce through her shoulder, and her mind became a little dizzy for a moment. She covered the wound and looked up to meet those frightening eyes.
"Hey, Immortal Lord Miaomiao is awake. I think you heard what I just said."
"What is the destined person? It's just right for you to tell my sister, okay?"
Mingyao bit her lip and quickly approached Xuanxiu behind her, but her neck was stiff and she did not look back at him.
Ignoring the awkward moment between him and Xuanxiu, Mingyao quickly warned, "Don't worry about her. I don't want to know. The most important thing right now is that I need my soul to return to my body and stop this formation. Is it possible?"
"Can."
But after not hearing his voice for just a while, Mingyao actually felt a little strange.
Xuanxiu took the lead in holding Mingyao's body in his arms, stopped her bleeding, and carefully covered her slightly disheveled clothes.
This scene fell into Mingyao's eyes... It was so strange. Mingyao suppressed his palpitations and quickly turned his eyes away.
"Ayao, your body is now bound to that formation. You can't return to your body for the time being. I'll have to bear with you for a while."
Xuanxiu smiled at her, as if the man who was so aggressive and expressed his love in the cave before was not him.
But the mark of demon possession on the forehead is still there.
Mingyao nodded blankly, only to see Xuanxiu carefully embrace her body in his arms, and cast a spell to protect her soul, isolating it temporarily, and not forgetting to smile at her gently with his eyes curved.
After finishing everything, he glanced at the formation, then glanced at Chu Ji who was standing aside with confidence, and slowly stood up.
Chu Ji sensed a hint of uneasiness.
The immortal power in the hands of Immortal Lord Miaomiao condensed, and the immortal weapon that was originally confiscated by Chu Ji returned to his hands from Mingyue who was standing beside him.
He found a sword from it.
"My Lord, forgive my kind reminder, but once this formation is activated, if it's destroyed, your precious treasure will be destroyed along with it."
Chu Ji forced a smile: "If you want to destroy my soul directly, I am also connected to this formation at the moment, and the result will be the same."
Unfortunately, her reminder received no response.
The sword in Xuanxiu's hand was wrapped in immortal power. He raised the sword, accompanied by gusts of breeze, and the sword tip was extremely sharp.
Chu Ji watched his attitude and couldn't help but panic. Could it be that his feelings for Ming Yao were all fake? Or... had he really found another way to break the spell?
When the sword is about to strike down.
Reluctantly, she lowered her voice and hurriedly tested the situation: "Immortal Lord, if this sword strikes you, your relationship with Mingyao will be severed. You dare not speak of the matter of destiny and destiny, right?"
The sword in Yan Xuanxiu's hand paused.
Chu Ji heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing this, but continued to strike while the iron was hot: "I just want to get rid of this demon body and escape from this prison. I don't want my sister's life. At worst, I don't want my sister's body anymore. I just want to leave once this formation is completed, and stay away from you."
"Even, even... this matter is beneficial to you, Immortal Lord." Chu Ji tried her best to persuade Xuan Xiu. She floated in front of Xuan Xiu and said, "Sister is so afraid of you now that she can't even bear your approach. If, if she is trapped in this monster's body because of this formation and can't escape, then she can only rely completely on you, Immortal Lord."
Chu Ji saw Xuan Xiu had stopped moving and breathed a sigh of relief. His gaze fell on Ming Yao's body in his arms. "Isn't that good? Immortal Lord. This way, her body and soul are completely under your control."
"If one year doesn't work, then two years. If two years doesn't work, then ten years. Immortal Lord, you have a long lifespan, and she is immortal, so you have a lot of time to make her love you."
"Or, if one day you get tired of her." Chu Ji lowered his voice and said seductively, "You can also kill her to prevent future troubles."
There was a moment of silence.
When their eyes met, the smile that Xuanxiu had previously shown towards Mingyao gradually faded.
A sharp sword wind rose from his body, carrying the scorching air around the monster's body, and swept Chu Ji away in an instant.
He swung the sword down neatly.
Chu Ji, who had not yet fully understood the situation, was terrified. At this moment, her hatred for Xuanxiu even surpassed her hatred for Xuan Hui.
It's just the last step, how dare he, how dare he.
As expected, she shouldn't have placed all her hopes on a man's feelings. Even though she knew that if the formation was broken, that idiot Mingyao would die, he still did it.
Chu Ji looked frantically towards Ming Yao, who was protected by Xuan Xiu's magical power, but what he saw was still a confused face, without any panic.
Idiot idiot idiot.
Chu Ji cursed several times.
If she had known this would happen, she would have told her everything early on, letting her die in fear and resentment like her.
Looking through the gaps in the sword light, the diluted blood in the formation had spread to nearly three-quarters.
She only had one last step left to complete it.
How can I be willing to accept this?
She gritted her teeth, and before Xuanxiu's immortal power completely fell, she endured the severe pain and tore off half of her soul, as if cutting off her tail to survive, in an attempt to gain a glimmer of hope and not be completely annihilated by the backlash of the formation.
However, after the severe pain, the half-abandoned soul did not leave her.
Instead, it floated quietly in front of her eyes like a rag that was about to be torn into pieces, and then gradually turned into a point of light and reunited with her.
Not far away, the formation has stopped.
Under your feet——
Chu Ji slowly lowered her eyes. The demon body of Ji Meng's bloodline, which had trapped her for many years and was still alive, was completely dead at her feet.
The head and body were separated and blood gushed out.
She raised her head little by little and looked at the immortal king holding a sword. His body was covered in blood and he looked like a demon.
So this was his idea... Outside the formation, he couldn't kill Ji Meng's demon body, so he entered the formation.
The formation was originally designed to lock up the demon body of Ji Meng's bloodline. If the demon dies, the formation will still exist, but it will have no target, so it will naturally be unable to do anything to her and Ming Yao.
The formation lost its effect, and Mingyao's soul returned to its place.
Safe and sound.
This time, she was the one who made the mistake.
Chu Ji closed her eyes and forced a smile from her lips. She was wrong from the beginning.
On the other side, the mark of the inner demon on Xuanxiu's forehead flickered, and his hand around Mingyao's waist tightened slightly.
Waiting for Mingyao to wake up.
Mingyao felt drowsy as if he had fallen into a deep pool, and was swept away by the freezing cold water.
I don't know how long I have been floating like this.
"Dad wants to see you."
A voice came from the deep water.
Mingyao then escaped from the pool.
I opened my eyes in a daze and saw the fairy mountain again.
Mingyao was stunned for a few breaths, then he came to his senses and fell asleep again.
Is it still about Xuanxiu this time?
As expected, behind her, Immortal Lord Miaomiao, who looked almost the same as he does now, appeared in front of her, and opposite him was Xuanhui.
"Is he going to die?" Xuanxiu asked with a smile.
Xuan Hui's eyes were filled with murderous intent. He met Xuan Xiu's gaze, and after a long moment, the murderous intent gradually subsided: "Follow me."
The two of them flew on swords all the way.
Mingyao followed Xuanxiu's perspective and walked with them. Along the way, the two of them moved very fast and arrived at the main hall of Xuyou Immortal Mountain in just a moment.
Fortunately, Mingyao could not feel the feeling of weightlessness when flying the sword in the dream. While they were changing scenes, Mingyao thought about it for a while and realized that it seemed that every time she came into the dream, she had encountered some life-and-death situation.
She didn’t understand why she dreamed of Xuanxiu before.
But this time, what Chu Ji said still made her concerned.
Does destiny have anything to do with this?
Without time to think, she had already followed Xuanxiu into the mountain master's hall.
Inside the mountain master's hall, there was a hunched man who looked like an ordinary man in his sixties or seventies.
Seeing Xuanxiu approaching, he subconsciously showed a hint of dissatisfaction between his brows, but it was quickly crushed by him.
This is Xuanxiu and Xuanhui’s…father?
"Your time is up." Xuanxiu still spoke without restraint when he saw the aging Xuanqing.
He glanced at the man in front of him. Without the protection of his immortal power, Xuan Qing aged very quickly and could hardly hold the sword in his hand.
"What does it feel like to die?" Unexpectedly, Xuanqing didn't care this time.
"It doesn't taste like anything." Xuanxiu answered simply.
Xuanqing was silent.
Xuanxiu also did not speak.
Mingyao squatted aside, watching the awkward conversation between father and son. She felt helpless and wanted to find a way out, but the failures of the previous two times discouraged her from doing so.
I can only stay here quietly.
Xuan Qing was choked by Xuan Xiu's words. He paused for a moment, a hint of disgust between his eyebrows, and began to scold: "I am your biological father, and you speak to me so disrespectfully and unfilially?"
Xuanxiu's smile remained unchanged, but his answer became more concise: "I dare not."
"I dare not, huh, I dare not. What do you have as the Immortal Lord Miaomiao..." Halfway through his words, Xuan Qing bent down and started coughing violently. Mingyao could clearly see the blood flowing out from between the man's teeth, as if he was about to ascend to heaven immediately.
Xuanqing coughed for a long time before he stopped.
His face was twisted with pain and torture, and he said nothing more to Xuanxiu.
He raised his head, took a few quick breaths, and finally squeezed out the words, "Xuanxiu, your destiny is your fate."
The twisted face seemed to be filled with brilliance because something extraordinary was mentioned. His eyes suddenly gleamed with brilliance and he stared at Xuanxiu who was silent in front of him.
"You must kill her."
Ming Yao, who was squatting in the corner, was slightly stunned when he heard this.
