He has changed
Yanzhu looked at Qingxuan suspiciously, only to see that he was also looking at her with a vague smile, which contained a darker color that she could no longer understand.
Suddenly, the irritating memory in the broken mirror came back to her, and Qingxuan stabbed a dagger into her heart.
No matter what, since Rong Shang is here now, she will give him some face. Later, she will definitely drive him out of the lonely land!
He actually stabbed her in the back.
Qingxuan didn't know that Yanzhu had already kicked him out in her heart, so she continued, "Either you bet your life that you will never be possessed by a demon, or you can constantly refine your sea of consciousness to reduce the impact of purifying the turbid air."
Rong Shang added: "Or, Ah Yan, don't try to purify the turbid air in the future."
Hearing this, Yan Zhu looked gloomy, and the corners of her eyes drooped: "Listen, it's not easy for any of us."
The Heavenly King wishes that she would be on duty every day and purify herself at all times.
Yan Zhu pursed her red lips tightly, her face showing an awkward expression as she made a final effort: "You all know that I'm not very talented. I never cultivated the basics before, and now I have to cultivate to perfection. This... too much stuff pouring in all at once, my sea of consciousness... won't be able to handle it."
Qingxuan said nothing, just looked at Yanzhu indifferently, and the latter immediately had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, she heard Qingxuan say, "It's okay. I'll teach you myself and practice slowly. Don't worry, I won't force you to learn."
Yanzhi's eyes widened.
What?
Yan Zhu jumped up and refused loudly: "No!"
What's there to teach? After Rong Shang left, the first thing she would do was to drive away this two-faced man.
Yan Zhi was immediately unhappy about his young master being disliked, and curled his lips, Bala: "My young master rarely teaches others to practice in person, you should be content."
Yan Zhu said, "Hehe," "Your young master is too noble. It would be a waste of my talent to teach him."
Yanzhi's little face looked thoughtful.
Qingxuan took a sip of tea and asked, "I'm familiar with the Lone Realm and can even predict the backlash of turbid energy. Is there anyone more suitable to teach you than me?"
Rong Shang chuckled, "Indeed, Qingxuan's divination can compensate for the unknown risks. After all, this path of turbid cultivation is unprecedented."
Qingxuan looked at Yanzhu calmly and raised his eyebrows.
Yan Zhi was a fence-sitter, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "Yes! My young master is really amazing."
Yan Zhu's eyes darkened, she held her forehead and glared at Qing Xuan, gritting her teeth: "Did you do this on purpose?"
Another reason to stay in this lonely place.
Qingxuan smiled, avoided Yanzhu's sharp eyes, and refilled Rong Shang's tea.
Rong Shang comforted Yan Zhu: "There is a Netherworld Fruit in the underworld. It bears fruit once every hundred years. During this time, it absorbs the essence of the Moon Turbidity. I think it will be helpful for your Turbidity Cultivation."
Yan Zhu's eyes lit up: "Can it improve my cultivation?"
Rong Shang shook his head. "It only helps to consolidate your foundation, and has no effect on improving your cultivation. If Ah Yan has any ideas, the Netherworld Fruit will fall to the ground and ripen in ten days. You two can come to the Netherworld then, and I will treat you well."
Before Yan Zhu could express her gratitude, she heard Qing Xuan beside her say with a smile, "Thank you, Rong Shang."
Yan Zhu was secretly dissatisfied, but he was very familiar with her.
Suddenly, a sound transmission note flew from the sky and landed steadily in front of Yan Zhu, with gold-plated patterns on it flashing continuously.
Qingxuan: "It is the oracle of the Nine-Layered Temple."
Yan Zhu slightly put his hands together and raised them high, respectfully receiving the sound transmission talisman. The moment they touched, Haotian's low, intimidating voice was heard.
"After not seeing you for years, the Lord of the Underworld is finally able to enjoy the scenery in the divine realm. This is a remote and isolated place, so I'm afraid I'll neglect you. How about Yanzhu and Qingxuan respectfully welcome you to the palace? I'll wait for you."
Rong Shang had an expected look on his face. "It's faster than I thought. It seems the divine realm's defenses are quite strong. The fact that the Mirror Abyss Ghost and the Nine-Tailed Fox managed to sneak in without anyone noticing is quite intriguing."
Rong Shang's hidden meaning was obvious. Qing Xuan was unable to say anything more. He stood up and waved his hand, making a gesture of invitation: "Lord of the Underworld."
——
Qingxuan reached out, wanting to hold Yanzhu's hand as he did last time, leading them up the Cloud Steps. However, this time, her eyes were distant: "There's a difference between men and women."
Rong Shang glanced at Qingxuan, then smiled with his almond-shaped eyes and held out his hand: "If Ah Yan doesn't mind."
"Trouble Rong Shang."
Yan Zhu curled her lips politely and extended her hand, but she did not shake Rong Shang's hand back. Instead, she gently pulled a small piece of his sleeve, then followed Rong Shang's steps and arrived at the gold-carved and jade-built palace gate in the blink of an eye.
Qingxuan stared at the backs of the two men, his expression flickering.
The divine attendant had been waiting nearby. Seeing the newcomer, he said respectfully, "Lord of the Underworld, please follow me. The Purifying God will also be kind enough to wait a moment."
Yanzhu nodded.
Then she looked at Qingxuan, who was deliberately slowing down his pace, as if strolling leisurely in the garden, and snorted, "You're still in the mood to enjoy the scenery? I'll kick you out later."
Teach me how to practice?
There must be other plans.
After a while, Yan Zhu glanced at the person who came and then turned away.
She heard Qingxuan say lightly: "Are you angry?"
Yan Zhu crossed her arms across her chest, with a cold and aloof demeanor. She frowned and snorted softly, "I don't have any."
At this moment, she didn't want to be alone with this person, so she turned around, raised her foot, and strode in the other direction.
After taking a few steps, her wrist was unexpectedly grasped and her body was pulled back uncontrollably. She turned her vision and saw her back pressed against the jade pillar, and a cold feeling came through her clothes.
The hands in front of him were warm but burning, becoming more and more intense, and the distance between them was shortened in an instant.
Qingxuan's face kept getting bigger, but at this moment she was already immune to this face.
"Qingxuan! How dare you!"
Yanzhu never expected Qingxuan to be so frivolous. She cursed in a low voice, and kept pushing with her forearms and elbows in resistance.
But the man in front of her was as still as a mountain, and she couldn't move at all.
"Let go."
The entrance to the hall was so solemn and sacred. No matter who went crazy, she would not think that Qingxuan was crazy or out of control. After all, this man used to be gentle and honest.
However, after the mirror was broken, she had a new understanding of him: he was two-faced, and now he was acting crazy and out of control regardless of the situation...
Once again, it fell below her understanding of him.
Qingxuan today is a completely different person from before.
Yan Zhu's eyes were burning as she stared at the man in front of her. After slightly raising her head to meet his gaze, she was stunned, because Qingxuan's eyes were not as calm and indifferent as usual, but as deep as a pool. At this moment, she could not understand the man's eyes at all.
She had never seen his eyes so aggressive.
Yanzhu's heart was beating like a drum, and she could hear the other person's slightly heavy breathing.
She couldn't figure out what the person in front of her was thinking. At this moment, Qingxuan exuded a dangerous edge.
"Where are you going?"
The man's voice was still clear, steady and light, but it made people feel even colder for no reason.
Yan Zhu suppressed her pounding heart, a look of doubt on her face. Could it be that Qing Xuan also had a dual personality? One side was gentle, the other fierce.
"Where can I go? Isn't it farther away from you?"
Yanzhu organized her words and spoke reluctantly.
She crossed her arms, held firmly in front of her chest by Qingxuan's large hands. She was unable to break free several times, and each time she resisted, she was restrained with even greater force.
I'm so angry.
Yan Zhu was furious, her voice filled with shame and anger. "I can practice on my own, I don't need you to teach me. After Rong Shang leaves, you leave too!"
She found that with every word he spoke, the look in the man's eyes became more dangerous, the shackles in his hands tightened, and the slight gasps in her ears kept rushing into her heart, causing her to feel inexplicably rebellious.
She is so nosy, but she insists that it is her lonely place.
Yan Zhu frowned in displeasure: "Are you going to kill me?"
Qingxuan loosened her grip slightly, but she was unable to break free from the restraints secretly.
"What are you trying to do? If you have something to say, just say it. It's not proper to drag things out like that."
Yanzhu's cheeks turned slightly pink, probably because she was annoyed.
She lowered her voice, feeling very depressed, and her fiery autumn eyes met the man's dark eyes.
Qingxuan stared at her lively expression and said sarcastically, "How come you don't know how to behave in your second form? Now there's a difference between men and women?"
The man's ending tone was light and lingering.
Yan Zhu was stunned, her face full of black lines: "You are holding a grudge? So now, you are seeking revenge?"
Who made him stay in such a lonely place? She gave him a chance.
Yan Zhu turned her head away and said word by word, "I told you to leave earlier, so that my second form wouldn't be able to tease you."
However, the other party misunderstood, and Qingxuan frowned, his smile disappeared, and a stormy look appeared on his face. He sneered: "What? Who else do you want to tease? The Lord of the Underworld?"
Hearing this, Yan Zhu looked at Qing Xuan in disbelief. Qing Xuan's tone was naughty and cold, and her almond eyes widened. "What does this have to do with Rong Shang... You are unreasonable."
The man looked at Yan Zhu, whose eyes were damp with shame and anger, and said with his thin lips, "You were the first to start."
Yan Zhu sneered, her slightly moist eyes glaring slightly, but without any deterrent effect: "What can you do to me? Besides, you stabbed me in the back with a dagger, and I haven't settled the score with you yet, and you're blaming me first?"
Hearing this, Qingxuan smiled, his frozen eyes flashing with a clear light like spring water, revealing a hint of understanding and seriousness: "So, you are angry because of this."
Yanzhu curled her lips and turned away to avoid looking at the man's controlled smile.
"You're about to kill me. Even rabbits bite when they're angry."
"If I wasn't fine, I would have stabbed you back no matter how high or low I went. But now, considering that you're taking care of Lonely Realm, I'm just sending you away. That's good enough for you."
"Besides, I don't want the gift you gave me. What else are you not satisfied with?"
Qingxuan's smile faded when he heard this: "You sentenced me to death without asking. This is unfair."
Yanzhu met the man's gaze with suspicion as he explained.
Qing Xuan said: "In the broken mirror, your sea of consciousness is real, and everything else is fake. According to the rules, you will either kill yourself or be killed by me."
"Jingyuan is a cunning ghost. I learned through divination that the person who is killed will leave the illusion, while the remaining person will be left behind forever."
"Also, I secretly divined and saw the abnormality of the fake heart. I determined that it was the key and took action. I just didn't have time to tell you. I didn't expect you to misunderstand me."
Yan Zhu lowered her eyes without saying a word, but the resistance of her wrist became weaker.
Seeing this, Qingxuan let go, straightened Yanzhu's wrinkled sleeves, and continued unhappily: "If I really kill you, you won't be able to leave the illusion at all, and will directly return to the illusion after the mirror is broken."
Hua Luoyanzhu said "Oh" with mixed feelings.
He whispered, "I thought it was because I was going to be possessed by a demon. Give me a knife so I won't harm others."
"Won't."
Qing Xuantiao's expression had returned to normal, and the impulsive danger just now seemed like an illusion.
Yan Zhu became persistent: "What if I really become possessed by a demon in the future? Will you?"
"Won't."
Qingxuan raised his eyes to look at her and said solemnly, "I believe you. Even if you are possessed by a demon, you will not harm innocent people."
Yan Zhu muttered softly, "Don't answer the question irrelevantly. I'm asking whether you will kill me."
The wind blew, and a strand of Yanzhu's hair was blown into disarray, sticking to her smooth forehead.
She thought Qingxuan would say no, but she didn't expect the man to stretch out his slender hand to straighten his messy hair while speaking with a smile in his eyes, as if he was deeply affectionate.
