Jiang Deng: “…”
Now there is no way I can stop absorbing and refining it.
Putting away his chaotic thoughts, Jiang Deng mobilized all his spiritual consciousness to refine his primordial spirit. Perhaps because his spiritual consciousness was upgraded to spiritual consciousness, Jiang Deng did not feel as much pain this time as last time.
The primordial spirit and spiritual consciousness have the same origin and are merging with each other, and her spiritual consciousness is also strengthened.
Although the energy of the primordial spirit had been almost completely absorbed by the third disciple, he was unable to absorb the essential divine substance that constituted the primordial spirit. This divine substance was a great tonic for Jiang Deng's consciousness.
As his spiritual consciousness grew rapidly, the aura around Jiang Deng also changed, becoming more condensed.
Time passed little by little...
——
Outside.
As Xiahou Qingyu had discussed with Jiang Deng before, she expressed her desire to get married in ten days.
"Do we have to wait until ten days?"
Hearing this, Ancestor Xiahou frowned, "Why are you so busy? Can't we do it in three days?"
Xiahou Qingyu bit her lip and said, "Grandfather, if you told me to get married, I should be mentally prepared..."
"...Whatever you want."
Ancestor Xiahou waved his hand impatiently, "I understand. This Territory Lord will pass this matter on to your brother. Since the wedding date has been set, what are you waiting for?"
He was too lazy to worry about other things. The most important thing now was to find a way to open the treasure house.
These days he has been telling others that he is in seclusion, but in fact he is trying to open the treasure house left by the Sword Master. However, he has tried several times and each time ended in failure.
He was sure that with Sword Master's greedy character, he must have put in a lot of treasures. If he got these treasures, his strength would definitely increase greatly, and then he would be able to sit firmly on the position of Domain Lord!
"Uh... then I'll take my leave."
Seeing that Patriarch Xiahou started to drive people away, Xiahou Qingyu didn't dare to say anything more. After all, if he made a mistake, he would lose everything.
Now they can't afford to lose.
Xiahou Qingyu could only pray secretly in his heart that Jiang Deng's journey would be smooth and would not be discovered by the ancestor.
"Well, let's go."
Under the urging of Ancestor Xiahou, Xiahou Qingyu had no choice but to leave Giant Sword Peak.
Seeing that only Xiahou Qingyu came out, Xin An, who was in charge of guarding the passage, frowned, "Why are you alone? Where is the young master?"
Xiahou Qingyu lied calmly, "Young Master was left behind by the ancestor for guidance. If you don't believe me, you can ask the ancestor yourself."
Xin An: “…”
Just now, he was responsible for informing Xiahou Qingyu to come in to discuss the wedding date, and he had already been scolded by the ancestor. How could he dare to cause trouble again?
After all, the young master is the most beloved descendant of the Xiahou Patriarch, so even if he stays at Giant Sword Peak for a few days, it shouldn't be a problem...
Xin An did not pursue the matter any further and watched Xiahou Qingyu leave with Wang Shouwei.
Xiahou Qingyu turned around and breathed a sigh of relief, and soon returned to his cave.
The Xiahou family guards outside the door were still diligently guarding their duties. It seemed that they would not leave until she got married...
Xiahou Qingyu, who was in the cave, turned her head to look at Xiahou Yu, who was still unconscious under the bed, and her eyes flashed.
Xiaoyu, since you think marrying the head of the Pei family is a good thing, then your aunt will grant your wish.
Because the wedding date was set, everything went smoothly afterwards.
In the blink of an eye, ten days have passed.
On Liushui Peak where the Xiahou family lived, there were the sounds of gongs and drums, and red silk was spread everywhere, making it look quite festive.
Inside the cave.
Xiahou Qingyu was wearing wedding clothes, with her head and face covered, sitting on the bed in a very proper and honest manner.
"Master Pei has brought people to pick up the bride!"
"Please bring out the bride!"
Soon, the matchmakers crowded into the cave.
Only after they lifted the veil and confirmed that the bride was Xiahou Qingyu did they feel relieved.
"But... why is the bride's eyes closed? She seems to have fainted."
Someone asked in a low voice.
Another person immediately lowered his voice and said, "I heard that this bride originally didn't want to get married. Maybe she used some kind of elixir. How can we guess the methods of an immortal?"
"I see……"
Seeing that the time was approaching, the matchmakers did not dare to say anything more and quickly helped the bride out of the cave. No one noticed anything unusual during the process.
As the bride left the cave, the guards outside also dispersed.
"Oh, it went pretty smoothly."
Xiahou Qingyu, who was hiding under the bed, laughed secretly.
Next... is to wait until the time is right.
——
The other side.
Song Shu, who is in the Song family, is also not idle.
Because the news that Song Yuanze was swallowed by the Sword Demon reached the ears of the head of the Song family. Although Song Yuanze deserved to die, as the eldest brother, he did not think so.
The head of the Song family not only blamed Song Shu for failing to take good care of the family, but also intended to remove Song Shu from the position of young master.
This made Song Shu angry. She realized that if she let her father continue to be the head of the family, the Song family would be finished sooner or later.
So, Song Shu took the opportunity to launch a coup and took control of the entire Song family.
Because she is very good at dealing with people, she has won over many people in the Song family over the years. Compared with the unfair head of the Song family, she is a qualified head of the family.
Apart from her father, almost no one objected to Song Shu becoming the head of the family.
After taking down the Song family, Song Shu lied that she was bringing the surrendered captives from the Nangong family to meet with Patriarch Xiahou, but in fact she brought all the cultivators from the Song family who were above the Jindan realm, and gathered them at the door of the Xiahou family.
There were no Nangong Xiangrui or other members of the Nangong family among the crowd. In fact, Nangong Xiangrui, Pei Ranzhi and others had gone to the Pei family. Their mission was to delay the Pei family's progress...
As soon as the Xiahou family sent someone to escort the bride out, they were immediately surrounded by Song Shu and her men.
When this matter reached the ears of the top leaders of the Xiahou family, they quickly sent an elder in the Spirit Transformation Realm to negotiate.
Elder Xiahou looked at Song Shu, who was in the lead, and said impatiently, "Young Master Song, today is a big day for our Xiahou and Pei families. You come here to cause trouble. Are you planning a rebellion?"
"rebel?"
Song Shu didn't show any panic on her face. Instead, she smiled slightly and said, "What a coincidence, you really got it right."
After saying that, a sword shadow flashed through the crowd!
A sharp sword flew over and headed straight for Elder Xiahou's neck.
A hint of panic flashed in Elder Xiahou's eyes. He tried his best to escape, but his body was locked by a powerful energy and he couldn't move at all!
The long sword that was getting closer and closer to him clearly did not carry any sword energy, but the power contained in the sword was particularly terrifying, and it actually contained a powerful force that could create the world!
In the blink of an eye, the long sword was already in front of him. Looking at the familiar long sword, Elder Xiahou discovered something even more terrifying.
"This, this sword is..."
