Chapter 64: Rebellion against the Immortals (V) "Husband"
"You want to go with me?"
Yan Chen, who had never received such a message, was in a hurry to rush out.
Mingyao naturally would not miss such an opportunity. Seeing that this was an important node in the secret realm, he offered to go with her.
"I can protect myself." Mingyao held the toad tightly. "You're in a trance right now, so you might do something stupid. I have to go with you."
"...Okay." Without hesitating for too long, Yan Chen gritted his teeth and agreed.
Along with the message came a guiding talisman, which was stained with blood spots, giving it an ominous look.
The distance that can be covered with a guide talisman is not too far, and will take at most half a day.
Mingyao was pulled by Yan Chen and stepped onto the flying sword.
The road led by the guiding talisman was winding and there was a small section that went around and around for several times. When they finally arrived at the place indicated by the guiding talisman, they found that they were in a forest about a hundred miles away from the fairy mountain.
Didn't Xianshu and Chu Dianqing say they were going to kill the demon together? Why was he here?
The shadows of the trees are swaying.
As soon as he landed on the ground, a strong smell of blood came with the wind, mixed with some familiar black air.
Yan Chen's face turned pale for a moment, but he didn't say anything.
She followed the remnants of spiritual energy she saw and groped her way into a cave covered by branches and leaves.
Before entering, Mingyao hesitated briefly. Chu Ji's incident made her a little ptsd about this kind of wild cave, but Yan Chen did not give her too much time to think and dragged her in.
There was no light at all on the road ahead. Yan Chen was anxious and did not cast any lighting spells for her. Ming Yao had no choice but to hold Yan Chen's sleeve tightly as she walked, and from time to time she could hear the sound of water.
I don’t know how long I walked, but suddenly I heard Yan Chen whimpering and rushing forward fiercely.
Mingyao lost his grip and stumbled forward. Fortunately, he was caught by another one and did not fall down. However, he felt a chill on his neck, which indicated that he was obviously held by a weapon.
Then, a bright light appeared before her eyes.
Under the bright light, their eyes met and both of them were stunned.
“…”
After a brief moment of shock.
"Why is Ayao here too?"
The one who spoke was Chu Dianqing. There were several bloodstains on her face. Her long skirt, which was usually light and fluttering, was now gray and stained with grass ash.
When their eyes met, her expression was tense and her lips were tightly pursed, a rare sign of panic and alertness.
Before Mingyao could answer, Yan Chen's crying voice came over: "...Xianshu, don't scare me, what's wrong with you?"
With this howl, the atmosphere suddenly eased.
Before Mingyao could reply, Chu Dianqing sheathed his weapon, walked over, frowned, and scolded him, speaking in a rare, harsh tone: "Yan Chen! Don't shake him! He's seriously injured and just lost consciousness."
Yan Chen still had to listen to Chu Dianqing's words. After stuffing the life-saving pills into Xianshu's mouth, he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, glanced at Chu Dianqing, and greeted her with sobs: "Senior Sister Chu..."
Mingyao also took the opportunity to go over and, with the help of the light, saw Xianshu's injuries clearly.
His clothes were almost soaked with blood, and there was a hint of black air on the wound. His face was as white as paper and there was no sign of life at all. No wonder Yan Chen cried like that.
"Senior Sister Chu, didn't you enter the mortal world to subdue monsters? How could you be... injured like this?"
"It doesn't look like the work of a monster."
Yan Chen asked tearfully.
Chu Dianqing's expression turned grim. "The monster issue wasn't a problem. It was subdued. However, on the way back, we were ambushed by the rebel immortals. In order to escape them, Xianshu was seriously injured."
"A traitor?" Yan Chen was stunned. "A living traitor?"
"How could it be... haven't they all been eliminated by the Mountain Master and his sisters and brothers? There have indeed been rebellious evil spirits causing trouble recently, but how could those living rebellious immortals dare to come here?"
"Those rebellious immortals are not in the Immortal Mountain, and their power is even greater than ours... I escaped back after setting up a magic circle. I sent the message to you using the fuse of the Book of Envy." There was a rare indifference in Chu Dianqing's expression.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not good, Mingyao quickly cleared his throat a few times to smooth things over: "Now that we're here, this place is not far from the Immortal Mountain. After Xianshu takes the elixir and wakes up, shall we go back?"
"We can't just go back." Chu Dianqing frowned, revealing murderous intent, "We must turn back and kill those rebellious immortals."
Mingyao choked up, a little confused. Didn’t they say they couldn’t win? Why not go back and get reinforcements first?
Yan Chen's temper flared even more. Now that Xianshu was injured like this, she was furious. Although she still respected Chu Dianqing, her words were not polite at all: "Senior Sister! Xianshu is almost dead! The Immortal Mountain is just around the corner. Why not call for some external help? The traitorous immortal can be killed at any time. Why today?"
"Yes, I must die today." Chu Dianqing did not give in at all.
It was very strange. Ming Yao, who was watching the battle, felt something was wrong. Chu Dianqing was just like Xuanxiu, always smiling. He rarely showed such respect to others, and rarely was he so cold.
When Xuanxiu's temperament changed drastically, it was because of the demon in his heart.
Could it be that Chu Dianqing's personality changed so drastically that he became obsessed and turned into a demon?
Mingyao stepped back silently.
Perhaps the two of them were arguing too loudly, or perhaps the magic medicine that Yan Chen stuffed into Xianshu's mouth took effect.
"Cough cough..." A light cough interrupted the argument between Yan Chen and Chu Dianqing. It was Xian Shu who woke up.
Mingyao rarely saw him in this fantasy world, and now when he saw him again, he still felt a little strange.
"Xianshu, are you okay? Don't be afraid, I'm here, I will take you back to the fairy mountain." Yan Chen was very determined.
As he said this, he was about to help Xianshu up and leave the cave.
"No." In the dim cave, Xian Shu rejected her. He reached out to stop Yan Chen, holding his hand tightly, so tightly that his fingertips turned slightly white. "...I heard everything you said just now."
"Senior Sister is right. I must kill those rebellious immortals first."
Mingyao listened carefully and keenly caught the trembling in Xianshu's voice.
"Why?" Yan Chen was very anxious.
"Because—I've become possessed by these rebellious immortals." Xianshu paused mid-sentence as he scanned the crowd. His gaze fell on Mingyao, and he continued, "I must personally kill those rebellious immortals to avenge the tragic deaths of my junior sisters and brothers. Only then can I slay the demons in my heart, cast aside my evil thoughts, and return to the immortal mountain to continue my cultivation."
"So, Yan Chen, I have no choice."
I admire the book and look up, every word is sincere.
No wonder.
Mingyao pursed her lips and looked at Chu Dianqing. Was Chu Dianqing so determined just now because he wanted to help Xianshu keep the secret? Her expression was grim. Perhaps it was because the junior brother she had raised had been infected with evil spirits right under her nose.
After many years, the immortal mountain no longer regarded cultivators who were possessed by demons as enemies. This was partly because they already had mental methods to suppress them, and also because of external forces.
But at this time, because of the rebellion against the immortals, the immortal mountains would either kill all the cultivators who were possessed by demons, or abolish their life-long cultivation and become mortals.
Mingyao was already surprised that Chu Dianqing was willing to give Xianshu a chance at this time and even send a letter to Yan Chen.
Thinking of this, Mingyao's gaze fell on Yan Chen's face again. She trembled slightly and the color of her lips faded. Obviously, Xianshu's words were beyond her expectations.
"Okay, okay, I will naturally help you." Yan Chen wiped his tears and said with gritted teeth, "What did those rebellious immortals do to you? Why did you become a demon?"
"Now is not the time for a long conversation. It's still dark and those rebel immortals are still there. It's not too late to go now. Yan Chen, you are good at observing the flow of energy. Remember, when you land, don't worry about the others. Just focus on the rebel immortal with the strongest energy and tell me. We must capture the leader first. We don't have the energy to care about so many other things."
Chu Dianqing interrupted Yan Chen's question and spoke rapidly, making Mingyao's heart pound.
Perhaps because Mingyao had no involvement in this matter, the people in the illusion tacitly ignored Mingyao.
The teleportation formation was set up, and in a moment, the world changed.
hot.
As soon as I landed, my whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of hot water vapor, which was sticky, stuffy and unbearable.
Mingyao squinted his eyes and looked around. In the dark night, under the steps, the surroundings were wrapped in thick white fog, mixed with bursts of blood mist, and shrill screams came from it.
This is--
Mingyao suddenly turned around and came face to face with the familiar statue of immortal.
Under the night sky, the statue of the immortal stood peacefully, and under the statue, a group of people stood.
"Rebellious Immortal——"
Beside me, I envy you for writing words filled with hatred.
Mingyao was stunned and looked at the group of people.
"Remember the shadows of Yunmeng, the steps on Lingbo, the fairy clothes and the beautiful face." "1"
She had not expected that the so-called traitorous immortal would be so...immortal-like, with a calm and composed demeanor. Compared with the previous Chu Dianqing, he had more of the charm of an immortal.
As for the unexpected arrival of Yan Chen and the other two, they didn't even raise their eyes. They just gathered in twos and threes, looking at a little kid who was about four or five years old with smiles on their faces.
"Oh my, this kid has quite a talent, he was born with a pair of beautiful eyes. It would be a shame if he became an immortal, it would be a waste of his talent."
"Yes, yes, it's better to kill him. If he embarks on the road of no return in cultivating immortality, it's all over, it's all over."
Their voices were vague, their words were gentle, their faces were blurred, and they were crowded together. From time to time, a soft laugh could be heard. The little kid who was surrounded by them looked at the ethereal fairy mist all around him and laughed along.
They all burst into laughter for a moment, and the atmosphere was very unfriendly.
Seeing this, Mingyao felt a chill on his spine.
Looking forward to the fairyland, and behind is the purgatory, smiles are accompanied by wails.
It's really weird.
Before the laughter died down, the little kid floated into the air with the power of the rebellious immortals.
"They are going to throw her to death!" Chu Dianqing said this and rushed out to save people without waiting for Yan Chen to identify who the "king" was.
Ming Yao glanced at Xian Shu. The demonic energy in him could no longer be suppressed the moment he arrived here.
Half-kneeling on the ground, staring at the screams and blood mist below.
"Yan Chen... Junior brothers and sisters, they are all dead..." His eyes were bloodshot, his expression twisted, "Those rebel immortals... killed them and turned them into a bloody mist. It's my fault for not protecting them."
Yan Chen gritted his teeth and stood up, pushing Xianshu to Mingyao's side: "Keep an eye on him, I'll go help Senior Sister and capture those rebellious immortals, and let Xianshu take action."
"Oh oh." Ming Yao, who was standing aside, didn't expect that he would have a role to play. He nodded, half squatted down, supported the staggering Xianshu, and stayed by his side.
In his ear, Xianshu kept on ranting about the shamelessness of the traitors. His inner demons were uncontrollable, and he was insane.
Mingyao couldn't help but frown, thinking of Xuanxiu. He also had inner demons, but why did he feel that his inner demons were quite easy to control... He hadn't gone as crazy as this.
Looking up at the stairs again, the baby was rescued by Chu Dianqing, but even with Yan Chen's joining, facing too many rebellious immortals, the two of them were still at a disadvantage in every move.
Well... according to the plot, at this time, there should be someone to save the situation.
Mingyao secretly speculated, could it be Xuanqing... Chu Dianqing and Xuanqing are a couple, and the situation is critical now. According to the plot arrangement, it is time for them to appear.
Sure enough, not long after, a sharp breeze blew from outside and split the layers of white fog.
Mingyao felt a sense of satisfaction as if he had guessed the plot correctly, and couldn't wait to turn back to confirm.
The thick fog dispersed, and above the night sky, a tall man in a red robe and black clothes looked down at her.
Mingyao felt a burn from the toad hanging around his neck.
…
etc.
The two looked at each other, both of them were stunned.
"Miao Miao..." Mingyao blinked, somewhat incredulous, "How could it be you?"
Before she could greet it, she felt a familiar immortal power rushing towards her, flying up from her fingertips like a gentle breeze. After exploring it up and down, it rubbed her wrist tenderly, making her unable to hold back her temper.
And Xuanxiu also arrived at this time.
The beautiful fox eyes held a hint of smile as they glanced at Mingyao holding Xianshu's hand. The smile didn't reach her eyes, but her tone was gentle and tender: "Ayao, who is this?"
here we go again.
Ming Yao scratched her face. At this moment, she had many questions to ask him, but obviously, if she did not quickly deal with Immortal Lord Miaomiao's little emotions at this time, he might become like the last time in Chu Ji's Lingxu Cave, where his inner demons would run rampant and he would start to go crazy.
Thinking of this, Mingyao steeled herself, looked directly into Xuanxiu's eyes, pinched her fingertips, and replied nonchalantly, "...Ahem, husband, this is my friend's Taoist companion."
Anyway, this is what I said to Yan Chen and Xian Shu when I went out early in the morning, so I might as well just go through with the show.
Mingyao explained it to himself in his heart without any further ado.
A gentle breeze blows on my face.
Mingyao saw with his own eyes that a hint of confusion appeared in Xuanxiu's eyes, and a blush rose on his jade-white cheeks.
For a moment, the awkwardness in my heart was suppressed by the expression of Immortal Lord Miaomiao.
Tsk tsk, that’s all.
A teasing feeling arose in my heart.
Mingyao stepped forward: "Husband, what's wrong?"
Before his eyes, the originally ferocious Immortal Lord Miaomiao was completely defeated, his long eyelashes trembling again and again -
"Nothing... nothing."
Mingyao won a great victory and felt very proud.
