lively
Zhu Ru took the book, her expression becoming increasingly conflicted. "That's true, but I feel like... this is something that can't be accomplished."
Qin Yuan seemed to be lost in thought before speaking, "The Soul Gathering Formation has become so widespread because it can be cultivated with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which is widely applicable. However, the Nether Qi and Miss Yan's Chaos Spirit are rare."
The atmosphere was somewhat solemn.
After a moment, Yan Zhu laughed out loud: "That being said, the world is unpredictable. In the long river of time and space, who knows what will happen in the future?
Perhaps the spiritual energy of heaven and earth will revive as usual, and the six realms will be connected.
Perhaps not only spiritual energy, but also magic power, dark energy, and chaotic spirits have been popularized.
It is also possible that the spiritual energy will gradually decline until it disappears, and there will be no more spiritual springs, no more cultivation, and no more godhood."
“Who can say for sure then?”
Yan Zhu smiled, then turned and asked the man, "What do you think, Lord Qingxuan?"
"What the Purifying God said makes sense."
Qingxuan looked at the two of them and said slowly, "Everything is possible. It all depends on human effort."
"Then let's do as you two say and give it a try."
Zhu Ru clapped her hands to confirm the answer, then turned around and returned the book to Yan Zhu, saying in a flattering manner with a hint of cunning: "But... I don't understand formations, and I don't know much about Chaos Spirits. I don't understand how to create the Three Qi Formation even more.
So, I'm going to the God Realm to stay with Sister Yanzhu!"
"Your Highness, are you serious?"
Yan Zhu looked at Qin Yuan with uncertainty in her eyes.
Will this work?
"Your Highness, think twice."
Qin Yuan raised his hand and saluted respectfully, but his tone was firm, "The six realms are no longer as peaceful as they used to be. If Your Highness stays in the outside world for a long time, the Lord of the Underworld will be very worried."
Unexpectedly, Zhu Ru waved her hand, took Yan Zhu's arm, and smiled in her heart, but on the surface she showed a sense of righteousness as if no one else could do it but her.
"This is the only way to quickly create the Three Qi Formation. My brother will agree. Besides, with Sister Yanzhu here, I'll be fine, right, Sister Yanzhu?"
Yanzhu glanced at Qingxuan who was silent beside her, feeling quite happy about his misfortune: "I'm fine."
In this way, anyone who knows what's good for them will move out as soon as possible.
The fact is, she overestimated Qingxuan's knowledge.
The man chuckled. "That's fine with me. I'll live in the west room. I'll keep some things in the south room. Your Highness can live in the north room."
He didn't mention moving out at all, and his expression was extremely frank, as if he was introducing his own home naturally.
Zhu Ru was unaware of the inner struggle between the two and said happily, "Great! I'm going to the God Realm to see the rosy clouds and seas of clouds! I want to see the beauty that can't be found in the Underworld!"
Some are happy and some are sad.
Yan Zhu: “…”
Not only did this man start acting again, but his fickle side was exposed.
Qingxuan raised his eyebrows, his expression normal.
"Of course, you can, but how long do you plan to stay, Your Highness?"
"?"
Zhu Ru's face froze in joy. How could this person be so fickle? He was on her side just now, but he switched sides so quickly?
Zhu Ru didn't care, hehe: "Let's talk about it later, I haven't moved in yet. If I'm bored, I'll leave. If it's interesting, or if I kidnap a young man from the God Realm, then I really don't know when I'll leave."
Yanzhu raised her eyebrows. Zhuru still had such thoughts?
"Your Highness can do whatever you want."
"Sister Yanzhu is still the best."
Zhu Ru leaned her head on Yan Zhu's shoulder, just like sisters.
Qingxuan said no more, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he glanced at Qin Yuan. He saw that the latter had thought deeply and seemed to have made an important decision.
Qin Yuan said, "I still need to protect the princess. Can I go with her to the Divine Realm? After all, I will come here to purify the two energies for the time being, so this will be more convenient."
After he finished speaking, Qingxuan's smile faded. Why did they all come to Lonely Land one after another?
Zhu Ru was the second one who was unwilling: "There's no place to live. You should go back to the underworld. With Sister Yanzhu here, I really don't need protection. Why are you nagging more than my brother?"
Yan Zhu's eyebrows moved. Although King Qin Guang, the head of the Ten Kings of Hell, is a very evil god, his combat power is amazing.
"How could that be? If Zhuru doesn't mind, you can sleep with me, and let Master Qin stay in the north room. After all, your highness's safety is very important. If something happens to you in the lonely land, I will not be able to explain to Rong Shang."
The four of them were all calculating in their minds.
Finally, Yan Zhu made the final decision: "Let's do it this way. Qingxuan will move out in ten days. Zhuru and I will sleep separately again, and Master Qin will live in the north room."
The smile on Qingxuan's lips faded, and gradually became filled with a sinister chill.
Seeing this, Zhu Ru rolled her eyes, as if she had done something wrong, and looked at Yan Zhu apologetically: "Lord Qingxuan, you don't look happy? Sister Yan Zhu, did I disturb you?"
"Ignore him. This is my lonely place. I have the final say on who stays and who leaves."
Yanzhu glanced at Qingxuan, who was emitting a cold aura, and didn't take it seriously.
"Let's go, it's getting late, and we have to practice tomorrow morning."
Yanzhu and Zhuru went out.
Among the remaining two, Qin Yuan stood up with his zither in his arms, nodded slightly apologetically towards Qingxuan, and then followed the two away.
Qingxuan stopped where he was and pressed down hard on his throbbing eyebrows.
——
Yanzhu summoned Wujiu, turned him into a disc, and used the magic weapon to fly into the air.
Wujiu can be big or small, so Yanzhu simply makes it bigger and lets Zhuru and Qin Yuan go with it.
The moon is bright and the stars are shining. The night is quiet under the sky and all things are silent.
Qin Yuan retracted his gaze and said apologetically, "Lord Qingxuan hasn't come yet."
Hearing this, Yan Zhu didn't care much: "Don't worry about him, Qingxuan Divine Lord may have other things to do."
This cunning man was willing to risk his life to continue playing the game until now. Even if she told him to get rid of him, he would still stay in the lonely place.
Excuses kept coming one after another and it was impossible to drive them away.
Now she still has interests connected with this person, so she can only do this for the time being. After all, cultivation is more important.
Zhu Ru seemed even happier, the corners of her mouth curled up uncontrollably as she said sweetly, "Well, the human world's books all say that men who get angry and lose their temper with girls and are emotionally unstable are not to be relied upon."
Yan Zhu raised an eyebrow, and Zhu Ru continued, "Look at my brother. He's very stable. He's the elegant young man Yu Wushuang. He holds a high position but still manages his emotions with ease. He can be decisive and ruthless, yet also gentle and kind. How do you think?"
In Yanzhu's smiling eyes, a ray of black light flickered, like a pearl in a quiet pond at night, attracting people's curiosity.
"What do you mean? Your brother is gentle and reserved, but you, Aru, are lively and cheerful."
Upon hearing that the previous Lord of the Underworld and his wife had both passed away, leaving only the young Rong Shang and his sister. Rong Shang inherited the position of Lord of the Underworld because of his possession of underworld power, while Zhu Ru was born with insufficient underworld power and her cultivation stagnated, so she became a carefree little princess.
It's hard to imagine how Rong Shang was able to handle important matters, practice cultivation, and raise Zhu Ru at the same time...
Zhu Ru said proudly, "Of course. My brother is the dream lover of all the women in the underworld. I have never seen him give Xuanming True Water to anyone for protection. In my opinion, my brother has more than just a simple mind."
Zhu Ru's speculation was quite true, but Yan Zhu knew that Rong Shang had no romantic feelings for her, because he had told her in person that they would always be friends.
Yan Zhu chuckled and jokingly asked, "Is this true?"
Zhu Ru was about to say the word "really" when she was interrupted by a voice unexpectedly -
"Fake."
Zhu Ru curled her lips and looked back. At the same time, Qin Yuan also turned his head. Only Yan Zhu moved his eyes slightly and did not look at the person who came.
Qingxuan stepped onto the disc, his steps neither hurried nor slow, his long robe fluttering slightly in the night wind, reflecting layers of moonlight.
Zhu Ru looked at the man's smile that didn't reach his eyes, and the cold aura around him, and subconsciously moved an inch closer to Yan Zhu. Then, she came to her senses and realized what she was afraid of. So her expression became tough again.
"What's fake?"
Qingxuan scoffed, "Of course it's your brother. His intentions are fake, but his righteousness is genuine. I think the Lord of the Underworld is very busy. Although he gave your sister Yanzhu the Xuanming True Water, it's because your brother has a sense of righteousness and foresight. He knows that Yanzhu's past cultivation would make her vulnerable to being bullied. If she had nothing to protect herself, she would be plotted against and unfortunately fall. Without anyone to purify the turbid air in the six realms, then those with ulterior motives would take advantage of the situation and disrupt the laws of heaven."
Finally, the man added, "The Lord of the Underworld is incredibly wise, truly a blessing to the six realms."
Three people: "..."
Yanzhu turned her face away. Really, she felt it was too much to bear to watch. Qingxuan, who was talking nonsense at the moment, looked like he had bags under his eyes.
But some people believed it.
Zhu Ru and Qin Yuan looked at each other: Is this true? My brother (the Lord of the Underworld) has such thoughts?
——
In the time it took to drink a cup of tea, the four of them passed through the Divine Gate and returned to the lonely land.
Yanzhi was drowsy on the roof. When he saw someone coming, he shook his wings, closed his eyes and continued to sleep.
Qingxuan stopped Yanzhu and said, "It's late, you should go and rest first."
Then he turned to look at Qin Yuan, and with the attitude of a host, he led the way and said, "Brother Qin, please come this way. I will take you to the north room."
Yan Zhu rolled her eyes and was too lazy to bother with these trivial matters. Under Zhu Ru's astonished gaze, she pulled the latter to the east room.
“Is Lord Qingxuan so familiar with your home?”
"Is there a cat?"
Zhu Ru couldn't hide her joy in her surprised voice, and she couldn't resist Mao Rongrong.
"Yes, call her Mimi." Yanzhu explained.
The candlelight flickered briefly and then went out.
In the courtyard, Qin Yuan followed Qing Xuan and said, "Thank you, Lord God. I have sent a message to the Lord of the Underworld on the way. We will stay here for a few days.
Your Highness was spoiled by the Lord of the Underworld. He has a free-spirited personality, loves to play, and is only half-hearted in everything he does. I think it won't be long before he leaves this place and no longer bothers the Lord of the Underworld."
Qingxuan's laughter was polite and courteous, without any dissatisfaction. "Brother Qin, you are joking. Guests are welcome. If you need anything else, feel free to ask."
Qin Yuan: "Thank you, Lord God, for bothering me."
Qingxuan pushed open the door to the north room, performed a Dust Purification Technique, and lit the incense burner. He said, "This is the powder of the crushed and dried Anshen Flower. The smell is extremely light. It helps with sleep and is very beneficial for cultivation."
A light and elegant fragrance wafted through his nose, and Qin Yuan bowed his hands in thanks: "Thank you very much."
Qingxuan nodded in return.
——
The next day, at one quarter past the hour of Mao, Mimi tickled Yanzhu with her tail. The latter reluctantly opened his eyes and touched Mimi.
After getting used to her biological clock of waking up early, she found that getting up was not as difficult as before.
Yanzhu tiptoed out of bed.
