Chapter 29 Chapter 29 The girl was born with a good complexion, this...
Chu Liangxiu practiced the ice and snow mental method. As he grew older, his hair turned whiter and his mood became colder and lonelier.
The colorful world quietly faded away, the myriad sounds died down, the colors of the world faded away, and she seemed to be standing alone on the top of a thousand-foot snow-capped mountain, with neither sadness nor joy, and even less love or hate.
Apart from the strong, she is rarely deeply moved by anyone or anything.
But Chen Qian knew that Chu Liangxiu was not as cold and ruthless as he seemed. Wrapped in ice and snow was a burning heart.
She has people she loves and things she hates, and the icy blood flowing through her limbs and meridians cannot extinguish the raging flames.
When Chen Qian'niang was alive, she once said that Chu Liangxiu was the most suitable person to practice ice and snow mental skills, and she would never be harmed by the mental skills and turned into a soulless snowman.
Now Chu Liangxiu was grabbing Chen Qian's collar, looking down at him with an expressionless face. His eyes seemed to be filled with ice, his bloodless face was tense, and his aura for a moment had some of the cold and evil power of a snow witch.
Wang Mianzhi was the first to sense something was wrong and quickly stepped forward to stop her: "Senior Sister Chu, what are you doing? He's been badly injured, he can't..."
A heavy sword with ice edges flashing with cold light was summoned out, and with a "swoosh" sound, it pierced Wang Mianzhi's eyebrows and hovered an inch away. The biting cold instantly made Wang Mianzhi's eyebrows covered with ice crystals.
Wang Mianzhi swallowed his saliva and looked at Gu Wuchen for help: "Uncle Gu..."
"Hey, Xiu'er, don't be impatient!" Gu Wuchen said with a headache. Just as he took a step, the Bingling heavy sword suddenly turned and stabbed into the floor.
In an instant, all the teacups in the room froze, the floor, tables and chairs creaked, and white steam rose from everyone's breath.
Chu Liangxiu turned his head slightly and glanced over, and everyone stopped where they were.
She turned her head and ignored what was behind her.
Among the righteous and evil forces in Jiuzhou, there are only a handful of people who have reached the out-of-body stage. In this room, no one is a match for Chu Liangxiu.
Chu Liangxiu looked at Chen Qian and asked the question again: "Do you still remember?"

On the cliff of Tianshu Sect, the maple leaves are redder than the flowers in February.
Meng Yaoguang couldn't believe it. "Ancient Secret Realm? Is a treasure like the Nirvana Pill that easy to find?"
Yao Ning smiled and said, "Maybe I'm lucky."
The ancient secret realm is extremely dangerous, with miasma, ferocious beasts, incessant rain, and an eerie silence where only the chirping of insects and birds can be heard.
Yao Ning walked for a full ten days, searching almost every inch of the mountain range, but found nothing.
Dirt and unknown liquid stained her red dress. A sticky, wriggling insect fell from her neck and was crushed to death by her. The bright red blood that burst out changed its shape, becoming extremely dazzling in the gray sky and earth, tempting people to sink into it.
The air was hot and humid, and sweat was pouring down. My skin was sticky and occasionally stung, but when I touched it, there was nothing. But in a blink of an eye, I felt dizzy, and the scenery and people were no longer the same as before. It was another illusion that unfolded at an unknown time and place.
When she was awake, she looked at her hands and asked herself, "Am I really awake?"
She felt tired, a kind of deep tiredness that came from losing a reference point, not knowing what day it was, not knowing why she had this body, and gradually forgetting where she came from.
The Fuguang Sword was summoned with a humming sound, and a faint light flickered, slightly dispelling the gloom. Yao Ning grasped the sword with an expressionless face. The sharp pain and blood awakened a little clarity of mind.
Her eyes were fixed, and the mountains in front of her rose and fell like a giant breathing. She suddenly flew into the air, and several brightly colored small snakes fell from her body with a crackling sound. The small snakes landed on the ground and swam rapidly towards the grass.
She looked up from the sky and found that the giant python she had been looking for for a long time was lurking in the mountains.
"The giant python has absorbed the essence of heaven and earth and cultivated for tens of thousands of years. How can a mortal body defeat it and steal the elixir?"
Meng Yaoguang walked back to the table and brewed another pot of tea. As the aroma of the tea lingered, she asked Yao Ning, "How did you do it?"
"After all, I have reached the state of Great Perfection of Out-of-Body Cultivation. The giant python has practiced for thousands of years, but it is also lazy and limited by its snake body." Yao Ning said indifferently, "It didn't take much trouble for me to obtain the elixir."
Mountains collapsed, broken rocks and soil fell, huge trees fell, and birds fled in fright.
The giant python lurking at the bottom of the mountain woke up from its slumber, and its body, which stretched for miles, crushed the hills, making loud noises as it moved.
Yao Ning narrowed his eyes, and the Fu Guang sword moved casually, suddenly shooting under the giant python, bringing out a panicked cultivator.
Yao Ning moved quickly and took a few people with him. Together with Fu Guang, he sent the people to a distant place, and then returned with a sword.
The giant python blocked out the sky and the sun, its body was as thick as a building, and its eyes looking down were like a room with candles burning at night.
A huge snake head hung down from the sky, its tongue hissing, and its cold vertical pupils stared at the mortal on the ground who was as small as a speck of dust.
Between heaven and earth, a tiny red dot faces off against a gigantic monster.
The python's breath was foul-smelling and the wind it created made Yao Ning's long hair swirl and her dress flutter.
She held a sword, her eyes gleaming with determination and a fierceness that showed she was not afraid of death.
The giant python suddenly raised its tail and smashed down high. Yao Ning went up against the wind, and a barrier fell around him, blocking the sight of other people in the secret realm and isolating all dangers.
The barrier shook continuously, and faint flashes of light of various colors could be seen exploding from outside. At first, everyone in the secret realm looked up at that spot.
But as time went by, the cultivators gradually shifted their gaze and went to look for their own treasure opportunities.
The war lasted for who knows how many days.
The barrier was retracted silently without disturbing anyone.
The last part of the giant python's tail drilled deep into the ground, and the cave was filled with rolling gravel and sand. A red pill fell into Yao Ning's palm.
She put away the pill, her eyes and eyebrows were bright and clear, and she had used a cleansing spell on her body, so her snow-white skin was not stained by dust.
The girl slowly exhaled a breath of blood, took a step forward, and walked away along the mountain road. Her back was as straight as a green bamboo, and her red clothes were as bright as a peony in spring.
Blood rolled down from the hem of his clothes and sank into the dust, gradually becoming unclear.
Just like the state she had fallen from, no one else noticed.
That was the first time Yao Ning fell into adversity in his life.
"Does Chen Qian know?" Meng Yaoguang poured tea for her.
Yao Ning's eyes trembled. She held the teacup and felt the warmth to her touch. She smiled calmly, "Whether you know it or not, it doesn't matter anymore."
The damage caused by the first fall in realm was far more serious than Yao Ning had imagined. She had to go into seclusion to heal her injuries immediately, and she could not bring back any elixirs.
Yao Ning found a cultivator wearing the Xuanqing Sect's uniform, who happened to be one of the people she rescued from the giant python. The young disciple's cultivation was not very high, and although he escaped the giant python, he could not avoid the sneak attack from other ferocious beasts and was seriously injured.
Yao Ning used his remaining spiritual power to heal her, gave her the elixir, and told her to bring it back to Xuan Qing Sect and give it to Chen Qian as soon as possible.
The young disciple promised with tears in his eyes that he would do it.
Yao Ning knew nothing about what happened after that.
She didn't know that the young disciple was a man of his word, and indeed he didn't linger on the many treasures in the secret realm. He only wanted to rush to the exit and return to Xuanqing Sect.
However, the ancient secret realm only opens once every sixty years, and because of the rampant ferocious beasts in it, many cultivators suffer casualties.
The young disciple carefully avoided most of the dangers, but collapsed at the exit.
She was bitten on the ankle by a small snake.
The little snake was brightly colored, with sinister vertical pupils, and was somewhat similar to the giant python from before.
The giant python gave birth to the resurrected dead, flesh and bones, and the Nirvana Pill that reversed yin and yang. Its own poison was so deadly that even if the nine gods and Buddhas were here, they would be powerless to save the situation.
The Xuanqing Sect disciples gathered at the exit used up all their elixirs and spiritual power, but were unable to save the young disciple.
The young disciple had a vague feeling that this might be his fate.
She should have died when the giant python woke up, but was saved by Yao Ning. However, she still couldn't escape death.
The young disciple felt relieved. Thinking of Yao Ning's instructions, he took out the Nirvana Pill from his arms and stuffed it into the hand of another Xuanqing Sect disciple who was holding her, "Take it back... to Uncle Master Chen Qian..."
She coughed up a mouthful of blood and held the man's hand tightly: "I must... give it to..."
The disciple who was entrusted nodded repeatedly and vowed to bring it back and hand it over to Shen Qian personally.
The young disciple felt relieved. Thinking of how Yao Ning had obtained this elixir by slaying the giant python alone, he commanded with his last breath, "Tell him, yes, yes..."
She paused, a blank look in her eyes.
She didn't know Yao Ning's name.
I don't even know which sect or school of fairy she is from.
The Xuanqing Sect quickly grew from a small sect into a pillar of the cultivation world. Compared to the strict rules of the Brahma Temple, its style is much more relaxed and free.
Not all disciples wear sect robes; many wear whatever they like.
Like senior sister Chu Liangxiu, she wears an ice-blue long dress every day.
There are not many people like Chen Qian who hold high positions but still wear their official uniforms properly.
The young disciple did not know Yao Ning and could not tell her name.
She was extremely anxious, but the light in her eyes gradually faded away.

Under Chu Liangxiu's questioning with suppressed anger, the corners of Chen Qian's eyes gradually turned red.
That year, he failed to break through to the spiritual realm and was in critical condition, and was in a coma for several months.
Fortunately, an outer disciple brought back the Nirvana Pill, which saved his life.
After he regained consciousness, he asked this person about it, but the outer disciple couldn't explain it clearly, and only said that it was a request from a fellow disciple before his death.
The disciple was honest and kind. He was also familiar with the deceased disciple. They both had mediocre talents, so he could only think that the item must have been obtained by chance by the disciple in the secret realm.
He then expressed his guess, but he was tongue-tied and Chen Qian was seriously injured and mentally exhausted at the time, so in the end he only had an impression.
It was obtained by chance by a female disciple in a secret realm, and she asked a fellow disciple to bring it back to her.
Later, Chen Qian was grateful for the kindness of his female disciple, so after he recovered from his injury, he went to the ancient secret realm alone. Taking advantage of the last bit of time before the secret realm closed, he managed to recall the wandering soul of the female disciple.
If the cause and effect are not repaid, it may hinder ascension.
Chen Qian then asked the female disciple if she had any wishes.
The female disciple's cultivation level was not high during her lifetime, and her soul was not solid enough after her death. She was in a daze, with only some instincts and obsessions.
She counted on her fingers and said, I want to sleep until noon every day and spend my days leisurely.
After thinking about it, it seemed that there were some unfinished things in her life, which made her uneasy. She said in a trance, I want to find Chen Qian and tell him about the girl in red.
Shen Qian's mind was moved, and he asked her what the girl in red was.
The female disciple's soul was in a daze and she didn't remember clearly.
Chen Qian had no choice but to create a human body for her to rest her soul.
"Since you have done me a favor and your obsession is related to me, I will accept you as my disciple and protect you for a lifetime of leisure. As for the rest..." Chen Qian paused, "It's fine if you can remember it. If you can't, it's fate."
The female disciple nodded blankly.
"Your previous name can't be used anymore. From now on... you can just call yourself Xianxian, okay?"
Chen Qian brought Xianxian back from the secret realm and accepted her as his only disciple.
When others asked him about it, he didn't say much, just said that the child was grateful to him.
It was more than a month after he recovered from his injury that he returned to Yaoning.
He and Chu Liangxiu were chatting under the flower tree, their disciples standing behind them. Yao Ning happened to pass by and was stopped by Chu Liangxiu: "Little Junior Sister, come here."
Yao Ning hesitated, but still walked over.
Chu Liangxiu asked her about her recent progress and what insights she had. Yao Ning answered obediently, but Chen Qian felt her gaze fall on his face several times.
He looked at her and nodded slightly.
Yao Ning's dark eyes suddenly lit up, like falling stars. She lowered her head and rubbed the grass under her feet, and asked casually, "Brother Chen... are you feeling better?"
Chen Qian said: "I'm recovered, thank you for your concern."
Yao Ning smiled. The girl was already pretty, and this smile made all the spring flowers and trees pale in comparison.
Chen Qian looked away feeling a little uncomfortable for some reason.
He calmed himself down and remembered that he had often seen this little junior sister in the past. A dirty little face and heavy snow stretching to the horizon emerged in his memory.
Chen Qian frowned and looked at Yao Ning. This beautiful face overlapped with the timid and dirty face in the snow. Something was about to come out, but it was hesitant and free, like catkins in the wind, which was clearly right in front of him, but he could not catch it in his palm no matter what.
He forgot.
Chen Qian asked apologetically, "What's your name?"
