Chapter 109 Chapter 109 See her secretly again
(PS: In order to follow the main storyline, the plot where Xin Luoyi decides to assassinate Jiang Zhaoxue and Song Wulan appears in the previous chapter has been deleted. Two male servants, Die Lan and Die Qing, have appeared. The additional content is posted in today's post, so you don't need to look back.)
Ye Tianjiao lunged forward as he spoke. Qingye was the first to react and kicked him, sending Ye Tianjiao tumbling on the spot. He angrily shouted, "You come up here and touch the lady, who do you think you are!"
"Okay."
Jiang Zhaoxue felt sorry for Ye Tianjiao lying on the ground, staring at her with longing eyes. She instructed Qingye, "I know this guy. Take him to change his clothes and check if he's injured. If he's fine, bring him back to me."
Ye Tianjiao listened with gratitude in his eyes, but Qingye looked at him with a hint of disdain. He said, "Get up and follow me."
Ye Tianjiao obediently stood up. Before leaving, he saw Pei Zichen in the pool. He was stunned for a moment. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Jiang Zhaoxue say, "Let's talk when you come back."
Ye Tianjiao nodded solemnly with something in mind, then turned around and followed Qingye.
He followed behind Qingye and looked up at her. He saw Qingye tying the sachet to him and complained in a low voice: "Why is it this kind of person..."
Ye Tianjiao listened to her complaints, his eyes fell on the sachet he left behind, and his eyes couldn't help but soften.
Jiang Zhaoxue watched them walk away. Anan jumped onto her shoulders and looked at Ye Tianjiao's back with some emotion: "Ah, Tianjiao has become much calmer."
"It's been a thousand years since we last met," Jiang Zhaoxue said softly, "It's time to calm down."
Jiang Zhaoxue waited for a while, and Ye Tianjiao came back after changing his clothes.
He sat down across from Jiang Zhaoxue with some restraint, and subconsciously glanced at Die Lan and Die Qing who were sitting behind Jiang Zhaoxue. He wanted to ask something, but didn't dare to speak. He could only bite the bullet and greet her first: "Sister... Oh no," he seemed to have realized something and hurriedly said, "Lady."
"Tell me." Jiang Zhaoxue looked up at him, "Why are you running away from me?"
“I…” Ye Tianjiao laughed awkwardly, “Am I not a person in the Nine Nether Realm now?”
Ye Tianjiao almost cried with laughter, and said with all his strength: "After all, I am also a high-level person in the Nine Nether Realm, so... then let's meet... in case..."
What if he is beaten to death because of different opinions?
Jiang Zhaoxue understood what he said, closed her eyes, and sighed: "Idiot."
"Ha ha……"
Ye Tianjiao laughed dryly. Jiang Zhaoxue didn't waste any words with him and said directly: "I'm summoning your soul. Why are you here in person?"
"I don't know either."
Upon hearing this, Ye Tianjiao remembered his summoning talisman and took it out, saying, "I was being chased by someone and suddenly heard you calling me. The summoning talisman in my hand lit up and I came over."
Jiang Zhaoxue found this strange. Ye Tianjiao thought for a moment and said to her, "Why don't you show me your summoning array?"
Jiang Zhaoxue didn't hide anything when she heard this. She knew that Ye Tianjiao was better than her in the art of talisman arrays, so she raised her hand and drew a soul-summoning array in front of Ye Tianjiao. Ye Tianjiao took a look and realized, "Oh, the writing style is similar to my summoning talisman, except that there are some differences in summoning the soul and summoning the body. However, my summoning talisman has a stronger sensing ability than ordinary summoning talismans. As long as it is connected to spiritual power, it can be directly summoned and teleported. Your spiritual power has reached me, and although it summons the soul, I am still here."
As he spoke, Ye Tianjiao recalled the formation pattern he had just seen. He glanced hesitantly at Pei Zichen in the pool and said hesitantly, "You...are you summoning spirits?"
Jiang Zhaoxue looked up at him, but didn't answer immediately. She just pushed a cup of tea in front of Ye Tianjiao, raised her hand to let Qingye go, and said calmly: "I have two things to ask you."
"Ah..." Ye Tianjiao knew the person was up to no good, so he said stiffly, "Go ahead and ask."
"First of all, what happened after we separated?" Jiang Zhaoxue looked up at Ye Tianjiao. "Why did Li Xiuji establish the Nine Netherworld Realm? Why did he go to the True Immortal Realm? Now that he's back, why didn't he ever think of looking for Pei Zichen and me?"
Ye Tianjiao listened, his expression gradually faded, with a hint of bitterness in his eyes: "You asked this question, which means it's been 1,200 years."
"What on earth happened?" Jiang Zhaoxue stared at him.
Ye Tianjiao thought for a moment and said softly, "How should I put it? Let's start from when we separated."
Ye Tianjiao said, looking up at Jiang Zhaoxue: "Back then, after you and I, we followed Li Xiuji and brought the dying Qian Sisi, Mu Jinyue, and a group of evil demons to the sealed space. That space was empty and without any power, and we all needed power to save our lives."
"Qian Sisi and I are injured and need spiritual power to heal our wounds. And those evil demons, such as Xin Luoyi, took advantage of the chaos to eat Li Xiuji's flesh and blood. From then on, they became a part of Li Xiuji's body. When Li Xiuji is strong, they will become stronger with him. When Li Xiuji is weak, they will become weaker. If Li Xiuji dies, unless they devour him and seize his demigod body, they will also die. But once they succeed in seizing it——"
Ye Tianjiao's eyes showed a cold look: "They will become the new demigods."
"What kind of demigod body is this?"
"A demigod's body is actually just a 'shell' that carries the soul," Ye Tianjiao gestured. "It can transform all the power in the world into the soul, giving it a physical form. However, once the power absorption is cut off, it will slowly disappear."
"But he didn't disappear."
"Yes," Ye Tianjiao nodded. "At the beginning, all of us were waiting to die, but the waiting process was too hard. Drifting in the deep sea can drive people crazy. At that time, Li Xiuji was talking nonsense, as if he could talk to people. One day, he suddenly drew a talisman for me. The talisman enlightened me, and I suddenly realized that a space cannot exist independently. It must be blocked from other spaces in some way, but there is no barrier that can block all the energy in the world. Li Xiuji is a demigod, and the talisman means to communicate with heaven and earth, so I drew the talisman, and Li Xiuji used it to communicate with heaven and earth. Finally, we allowed the power of other spaces to pass through."
"And you were saved?"
Jiang Zhaoxue asked casually, and Ye Tianjiao shook his head.
"No." His expression was heavy. "The power that came through was too weak, not enough to keep us alive. We were filled with despair, but Li Xiuji, seemingly guided by someone, actually used divine power to change the space we were in, so that any power entering it would be transformed into a force similar to resentment, which is what you later called the power of the Nine Netherworld."
Ye Tianjiao spoke with amazement in his eyes, "Li Xiuji seemed like a born god. He completely understood the laws of heaven and knew how to create things. He absorbed all the power to fill himself, and then used this power to condense the first seed, the first tiger."
"tiger?"
Jiang Zhaoxue asked subconsciously, and Ye Tianjiao nodded: "Ah, it's just a little tiger cub. White with golden stripes, blue eyes, often hanging around Li Xiuji. I once wanted to secretly bring it over to play with it, and wow, he almost beat me to death."
Jiang Zhaoxue listened, feeling somewhat strange.
Li Xiuji created this tiger, and also...
But she couldn't say much, so she could only guess that it was probably a coincidence. She listened as Ye Tianjiao continued, "He doesn't like to talk, and basically just sits alone and creates things. The spiritual energy of the True Immortal Realm is born from plants and living things, and the same is true for the Nine Nether Realm. He spent a thousand years creating everything that the True Immortal Realm has. The Nine Nether Realm has long since begun to achieve a self-circulating power. But the problem is, there is a vague force that has been restraining us."
Ye Tianjiao pursed his lips, his eyes revealing an uncontrollable hatred. "We've sensed this power since the creation of the Nine Netherworld. It will barren the land of vegetation and plague. As long as Li Xiuji stops protecting the Nine Netherworld, the Nine Netherworld will immediately fall into turmoil. To combat this power, we must constantly draw energy, especially Li Xiuji. To draw power, we can only expand, but after expansion, the range that Li Xiuji's abilities need to cover becomes even wider. Two hundred years ago, absorbing his body reached its limit, so we had no choice but to burn our boats and send troops to the True Immortal Realm to destroy the Book of Destiny."
Jiang Zhaoxue was stunned by this and couldn't help but ask, "Did you want to destroy the Book of Destiny back then?"
"That's right." Ye Tianjiao nodded and said in a deep voice, "According to Li Xiuji, the power that has been suppressing the Nine Netherworld Realm comes from the Book of Destiny. As the book of creation of the Divine Sovereign, the Divine Sovereign has given him the greatest power, but also the greatest restrictions. Normally, he can't even kill a mortal directly, but he can use the power given to him by the Divine Sovereign without limit against all those who are beyond their predetermined destiny and pose a threat to the world. That's why it's called Destiny. And we, the group of people who created the Nine Netherworld Realm -"
Ye Tianjiao picked up the peanuts and crushed the shells, seemingly nonchalantly: "They are all people destined to die by fate. Unless we accept our fate, as long as the True Fairyland protects the Book of Fate, we will be irreconcilable with the True Fairyland."
"What if the Book of Destiny is destroyed?" Jiang Zhaoxue looked up at him and continued to ask, "Does Li Xiuji still need the True Immortal Realm?"
Ye Tianjiao paused after hearing this, pursed his lips and did not answer.
Jiang Zhaoxue knew the answer.
Maybe Ye Tianjiao sent troops to the True Immortal Realm for the Book of Destiny, but that was not the case with Li Xiuzhi.
Li Xiuji's body needs a constant supply of energy. The power of the Nine Netherworld Realm is simply not enough to support Li Xiuji. If he wants to survive, he has no choice but to continue to swallow up other realms until he becomes a god and has a real body.
Jiang Zhaoxue knew that this was the absolute difference in her and Ye Tianjiao's positions.
Except for outliers like Pei Zichen, people who have practiced the True Immortal Realm techniques cannot practice the Nine Netherworld Realm techniques again unless they abandon their practice and start over.
But for the monks, it is better to kill them than to abandon the path and start over.
Even Jiang Zhaoxue himself could not tolerate it.
She lowered her head to drink her tea, knowing that Ye Tianjiao couldn't answer her question. "So what happened next? After he was sealed in the Cangming Sea, without his protection and with the Book of Destiny targeting you, how did the Nine Netherworld Realm survive these two hundred years?"
"In fact, before he sent troops to the True Immortal Realm, he had already left behind the power to protect the True Immortal Realm for two hundred years," Ye Tianjiao scratched his head and said truthfully, "and he also made a series of arrangements in case of failure."
"What deployment?"
Jiang Zhaoxue raised her eyes to ask. Ye Tianjiao paused, and after thinking for a moment, he slowly said, "Tell the truth, Lady Jiang." Ye Tianjiao looked up at her seriously, "This is the secret of the Nine Netherworld Realm. Unless the Lord is willing to tell you, I must not speak of it."
He changed his address to a respectful one, and Jiang Zhaoxue could sense the seriousness in it.
She thought about it and nodded, "I understand. Then tell me what you can say."
As Jiang Zhaoxue spoke, Die Lan stepped forward to refill their newly empty cups with tea. Ye Tianjiao glanced at the gentle young man in blue, tapped the table, glanced at the calm Jiang Zhaoxue across from him, and listened as Jiang Zhaoxue asked, "After he was sealed, what can you tell me about what happened in the Nine Netherworld Realm? Why are you being hunted?"
Jiang Zhaoxue looked up at him and said, "Ever since the unusual movement in the Cangming Sea three months ago, the Nine Nether Realm has been frequently invading and causing conflicts. Why is that?"
"this……"
Ye Tianjiao pondered and spoke slowly, "All I can tell you is that the seal of the Cangming Sea, Li Xiuji's body, was originally condensed from resentment. But a body condensed from resentment cannot bear beautiful things. In other words, he cannot perceive and remember beautiful emotions such as love and kindness. He can only perceive and remember negative things about himself. It was later, after he gradually absorbed the power of all things in heaven and earth over a thousand years to nourish his body, that his divine body gained the ability to bear beautiful things. But the seal of the Cangming Sea, what you did cut off the source of his power..."
"But the resentment cannot be cut off."
Jiang Zhaoxue understood instantly, and Ye Tianjiao nodded: "That's right, resentment comes from the human heart. You trapped him, causing him pain, struggle, and hatred, which will become his strength. When the power in his body from all things in heaven and earth is consumed, and he consumes his own resentment, the resentment in his body will only become purer and purer, becoming a true evil creature. He guessed this result back then, so he specially gave me a pill and asked me to take it when he woke up. This medicine can help him quickly condense the power of heaven and earth and restore his mind. At the same time, he asked me to find something. When I went to the Nine Nether Realm, I gave it to Xin Luoyi to take care of it. As a result, when I came back, the entire Nine Nether Realm was completely under her control, and I had long been sidelined. However, she was unwilling to fully carry out Li Xiuji's goal and was wholeheartedly committed to transforming Li Xiuji into a true evil creature."
"Why?"
"She is a grudge demon," Ye Tianjiao reminded. "She only looks like a normal person and has a brain, but she is actually a lunatic. She hopes that Li Xiuji will go completely crazy and kill people everywhere, so that there will be more grudge energy for them to absorb."
"who are they?"
"Oh, they're the people who went to the Nine Netherworld back then," Ye Tianjiao said casually. "Besides Xinluoyi, there were four other evil demons who survived. Li Xiuji named them Zhou Pan, Zhou Shi, Zhou Min, and Zhou Lian. The four of them are the Four Demons of the Nine Netherworld. The Nine Netherworld is divided into four regions and 165 cities. Except for the main city, Cangdu, which is directly governed by Li Xiuji, the others are under the jurisdiction of the Four Demons. Originally, I was in charge of Zhou Pan and Zhou Min, and Xinluoyi was in charge of Zhou Shi and Zhou Lian. But because I... I was devoted to the Tao and loved to practice cultivation, they all mixed together unknowingly. Later, I went away to find something for two hundred years, and when I came back, I was even more alone."
Ye Tianjiao sighed as he spoke, "Three months ago, when Li Xiuji woke up, I was about to deliver medicine when I was suddenly ambushed by the formation that Xinluoyi had already prepared, and then Zhou Shi chased him all the way out. Now Li Xiuji has probably been taken back by them. Without the elixir, he's probably in a bad situation. So I think... Sister," Ye Tianjiao said, rubbing his hands, a little nervously, "Although I'm a demon cultivator in the Nine Nether Realm, but... we still have some friendship and basis for cooperation."
Jiang Zhaoxue listened, a little confused: "Cooperation?"
"Look, I need to see Li Xiuji now and feed him this pill," Ye Tianjiao said, taking out a box and placing it on the table. He then glanced at Pei Zichen beside him and said meaningfully, "As for you, if you want to revive Pei Zichen, how about this? Help me feed this pill to Li Xiuji."
Ye Tianjiao opened the box and said solemnly, "How about I help you resurrect Pei Zichen?"
Jiang Zhaoxue listened, stared at the box carefully, and moved forward.
Qingye, Dielan and Dieqing next to them also came forward.
Ye Tianjiao was a little confused: "What are you looking at?"
"Um," Qingye examined it carefully and pointed at his box to confirm, "Is your medicine dissolved?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Tianjiao was shocked and turned the box around, his eyes widening instantly.
Inside the brocade box, the elixir had already turned into a brown substance, soaking into the cushion.
It looked like a puddle of mud.
Ye Tianjiao knew in his heart what this thing was. It was not an ordinary pill. If it dissolved like this, it would be gone.
He was panicked, resentful, and anxious. Jiang Zhaoxue looked at him carefully. After seeing Ye Tianjiao's expression change several times, he seemed to remember something and pretended to be calm and said, "Oh, I took the wrong one."
As he spoke, he closed the medicine box and put it into his sleeve. After rummaging around for a while, he took out another box and placed it on the table. He opened it with a look of immortality and said, "This is it. Just feed him this medicine, and I will resurrect Pei Zichen for you."
"Just that?" Jiang Zhaoxue couldn't believe it.
Ye Tianjiao said in a deep voice: "However, the feeding method of this medicine is a bit special, and you need to make some sacrifices."
"What sacrifice?"
"This medicine," Ye Tianjiao said stubbornly, forcing himself to make his ridiculous words sound righteous, "must be fed to you mouth to mouth."
"Fuck you!"
"presumptuous!"
"absurd!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qingye Dielan and Dieqing spoke at the same time. Qingye directly pressed his head onto the table and banged it non-stop.
Ye Tianjiao couldn't bear it after just two hits, and quickly said, "It's okay if you don't kiss! Just see him! Feed it to him when you see him!!"
"snort."
Qingye listened, finally relieved and let go. Turning to Jiang Zhaoxue, he said, "My Lady, this man is full of lies, but he's a coward. Why don't I punish him myself? He'll surely tell the truth."
"sister!!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Tianjiao looked at Jiang Zhaoxue in horror. Seeing his expression, Jiang Zhaoxue suddenly felt the same sense of helplessness common to all cultivators. She sighed, waved her hand, and said, "That's not necessary. All right."
Jiang Zhaoxue raised her eyes to look at Ye Tianjiao and said seriously, "I know you have something to say, but I believe you have no ill intentions. Just feed this medicine to Li Xiuji, right?"
Jiang Zhaoxue said, his eyes fell on the table. Ye Tianjiao nodded quickly. Jiang Zhaoxue thought: "I understand. Then let's think of a way to meet him first..."
As she spoke, everyone fell silent.
Zhongzhou and Jiuyou Realm have had basically no relationship except fighting for so many years. How can she meet Li Xiuzhi and drug him naturally?
Everyone pondered over it. Ye Tianjiao sat restlessly, looking left and right, and said cautiously: "I have a suggestion."
Jiang Zhaoxue turned her head and saw Ye Tianjiao showing a flattering smile. He gestured and said, "I have known him for more than a thousand years. I understand him. If you write a letter right now and tell him that you want to marry him, he will definitely meet you."
Jiang Zhaoxue paused after hearing this, and suddenly sensed something else. She frowned and said in disbelief, "Li Xiuji likes me?"
"That's right!" Ye Tianjiao nodded quickly. Thinking about who was in that shell, he said with certainty, "He's deeply in love with you. Even if he's completely unconscious, if it's you, he'll definitely be able to do it!"
"That's even worse."
Jiang Zhaoxue turned away, but she didn't believe it. She just said calmly: "I have lied to Pei Zichen before. There is no need to lie again unless I have no choice."
"I've been cheated once..."
"But you do have a point." Jiang Zhaoxue completely ignored his dissuasion and analyzed, "After all, I am also the leader of the Immortal Alliance. Now that he has been released from the seal and returned, it is only right for me to visit him to negotiate peace. Why don't I write him a letter, saying that I will personally go to the Nine Nether Realm Demon Palace to negotiate peace."
"What if he disappears?" Qingye was curious.
"If not," Jiang Zhaoxue thought for a moment and said, "then we'll have to take the trouble to go to the Nine Netherworld Realm and choose another opportunity."
"There's really no need to go through so much trouble..." Ye Tianjiao muttered softly, "Just say you want a marriage..."
"Alright, it's getting late." Jiang Zhaoxue put away the medicine, not bothering to pay attention to Ye Tianjiao's nonsense. He waved his hand and said, "Dielan, take Young Master Ye to his place first. Dieqing will have someone draft a visiting card and send it to Li Xiuji in the name of the Immortal Alliance. Qingye, you go and rest."
"Well," Ye Tianjiao felt a little strange when she asked everyone to leave, "Don't you want to ask me something else?"
"there is none left."
Jiang Zhaoxue lowered her eyes and said calmly, "The second thing I want to ask is how to resurrect Pei Zichen."
Ye Tianjiao was stunned when he heard this, and seemed to want to say something, but after thinking it over, he said softly: "You...you don't have to be sad, he will definitely be fine."
"Um."
Jiang Zhaoxue didn't want to say more, only said: "Go and rest, go back and wash yourself, I will get the Wuxiang pen later to draw your face. It's not appropriate for him, a high-level Nine Nether Realm, to hang around in Penglai. From today on, you are my new disciple Ye Chen."
As she spoke, Jiang Zhaoxue looked up at him and urged him, "When the time comes, you will go to the Nine Netherworld with me."
"good."
Ye Tianjiao agreed, and the group went down to rest.
After everyone left, Jiang Zhaoxue thought about it and decided to personally convey the message to Li Xiuji again.
She was a ninth-level destiny master, so it was not wrong for her to forcibly try to send a message to someone, but it would be considered disrespectful to the person being sent the message, which was considered a taboo among cultivators.
But according to what Ye Tianjiao said just now, if the Nine Nether Realm was controlled by Xin Luoyi, if she hadn't sent a message, Li Xiuyi might not have known about the existence of this visiting card at all.
So she thought about it, raised her hand and said, "Heaven has called you, send a message to the Nine Netherworld Emperor Li Xiuji."
As soon as she opened her mouth, Pei Zichen in the Nine Netherworld Demon Forest cut down the resentful insect in front of him with a sword, and instantly stopped, gasping for breath.
He was covered in blood, and drops of blood were dripping down the tip of the sword.
The surrounding resentful insects swarmed outwards with him as the center, fleeing and not daring to get even a little closer.
Who is it?
Pei Zichen was in a trance for a moment, almost thinking he was hallucinating. However, a moment later, he heard Jiang Zhaoxue's voice: "I heard that the Emperor has been released from the seal and returned. I, Jiang Zhaoxue, am the new leader of the Immortal Alliance in the True Immortal Realm. I wish to travel to the Nine Netherworld Realm to congratulate the Emperor and discuss peace between the two realms. I hope the Emperor will agree."
Emperor...
Jiang Zhaoxue...
These words entered Pei Zichen's mind, and his mind gradually became clearer.
Three months ago, he woke up in this body after he and the Book of Destiny were destroyed in the Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion.
This is Li Xiuji's demigod body. After waking up, he learned his identity from Xin Luoyi.
Twelve hundred years ago, Li Xiu Ji became a demigod and was sealed into a space by him and Jiang Zhao Xue who went back to the past. Afterwards, Li Xiu Ji led Xin Luo Yi and others to develop this space into the Nine Netherworld.
However, he entered the Tao as a ghost and had no physical body. He had to cultivate into a divine body to truly "survive".
So two hundred years ago, he went to the True Fairyland, trying to destroy the Book of Destiny and absorb its power to become a god, but was sealed by the True Fairyland instead.
But when he was sealed, he discovered that there was another way to become a god in this world, which was to find the other five artifacts left by the God, namely, the Heavenly Jade, the Time Mirror, the Yuanluo Bow, the Lingxu Fan, and the God-Slaying Sword. After completely awakening the five artifacts, he could become a god and reverse his fate.
The necessary requirements for the five divine artifacts to recognize their master are "the utmost purity and goodness, and the benevolence of a gentleman." Li Xiuji knew that he had no hope of gaining recognition from the divine artifacts, so he reincarnated his soul into himself, Pei Zichen.
After that, Jiuyou Realm put all its efforts into assisting him to obtain the five divine artifacts until he was recognized by the divine artifacts and assisted him to return to Li Xiuji's "demigod body".
But after "coming back", he did not become a god.
He doesn't know the specific reason and doesn't want to know.
This body was too painful. It had no sense of touch, could not see colors, and could not smell odors, but it would hurt. Every day at a fixed time, he would feel as if his soul was being torn apart, and he would have a splitting headache. Staying in it, he was almost driven crazy.
I think about Jiang Zhaoxue every day and night, but the pain only gets worse when I think about her.
Jiang Zhaoxue doesn't want him.
She had always been lying to him. She was nice to him at first just for the five artifacts, and later she let him go just out of pity.
But he didn't want this kind of pity.
Even if he died alone in the secret room of the Nine Netherworld, he could not live under her mercy.
He forced himself not to see her, but the longer the time passed, the deeper his desire for Jiang Zhaoxue became.
Want to see her.
This desire seemed to be engraved in his bones, like the thirst of a thirsty person in the desert for water. His body seemed to be drying up and shrinking in pain due to the absence of this person, but when he realized this, he felt an extreme anger.
The angrier he got, the more scared he became. He was afraid that if he really saw her—
What will you do?
He doesn't know himself.
His mind was a little confused, and the only way to eliminate it was to kill these endless demons in the Nine Netherworlds.
Only when he was killing could he calm down for a moment.
He thought he would never see Jiang Zhaoxue again.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, he actually heard Jiang Zhaoxue's voice.
At first, he thought it was an illusion, but after a moment, he clearly realized that it was not an illusion.
Just one sound disturbed his entire mind. He clenched the tip of his sword and gasped, not daring to make another sound.
Seeing no response from the other party, Jiang Zhaoxue asked doubtfully, "Emperor? Did you hear me?"
The other party still didn't respond.
Jiang Zhaoxue hesitated for a moment, then heard Anan sigh, "Stop yelling! You can feel the fluctuations in his power. He obviously heard it and doesn't want to pay attention to you. Don't let Ye Tianjiao fool you. You and Pei Zichen worked together to seal him for a thousand years, so it's quite generous of him not to kill you."
Jiang Zhaoxue's words made her shudder, realizing that she and Li Xiuji still had some grudges against each other. Feeling guilty for a moment, she coughed lightly and said, "I'm sorry, I'm just worried that the news won't reach the Emperor's ears, so I interrupted you. I hope the Emperor will give me a chance. I'll take my leave now."
Having said that, Jiang Zhaoxue stopped transmitting the message.
Pei Zichen felt her breath dissipate, and his hand gripping the sword was so tight that it drew blood.
He couldn't control himself at all and closed his eyes.
Once, just see you once.
As soon as he thought about it, he turned into a crow and flew away.
When Jiang Zhaoxue cut off the communication, he knew that Li Xiuyi probably would not see him. He sighed and began to think about the second plan. He turned around and went to the Penglai warehouse to get the Wuxiang Pen, which could change a person's appearance and aura, and went to Ye Tianjiao's room to look for him.
Ye Tianjiao had just finished his shower and was making himself a pot of tea in his room. Jiang Zhaoxue pushed the door open and saw that Ye Tianjiao had completely decorated the room into his own in less than half an hour. Besides changing his clothes into Penglai clothing, the room was filled with his talismans, favorite toys, and daily necessities...
"Are you planning to stay here?"
Jiang Zhaoxue frowned.
"As for people," Ye Tianjiao poured Jiang Zhaoxue a cup of tea and said leisurely, "life is everywhere, so you have to take good care of yourself."
"Okay."
Jiang Zhaoxue took out the Wuxiang Pen, walked to Ye Tianjiao, and after studying him for a moment, raised his hand to cast a spell and said calmly: "I just sent a message to Li Xiuji, but Li Xiuji didn't reply. We have to rely on ourselves. Look up."
As Jiang Zhaoxue painted Ye Tianjiao's face, she continued, "From today on, you are my disciple. Tomorrow we will set off and sneak into the Nine Netherworld Realm. When the time comes, you will tell me who Li Xiuji is, and we will wait for the opportunity to act."
"good."
Ye Tianjiao felt the brushstrokes on his eyes and couldn't help but dodge back. Jiang Zhaoxue immediately pinched his jaw, holding him still and said, "Don't move."
"Itchy." Ye Tianjiao forced himself to stay still, with a bit of grievance, "I think you've even drawn on my eyes, sister."
"Call me Master."
Jiang Zhaoxue warned him: "Get used to it. When the time comes, it will be Silla Yi's territory. Get used to it first and don't let it slip."
"Okay, okay, wait, don't touch my ears! They're itchy!"
"Don't move!"
"Hahaha... No no! My ears are really itchy!"
"Don't move."
As the two were struggling, a crow landed silently outside the window. It stared at Jiang Zhaoxue and Ye Tianjiao, so silent that it seemed to blend into the night.
Ye Tianjiao's face was almost finished, and when he finished the last ear, Jiang Zhaoxue put away the Wuxiang Brush and turned around and said, "Tomorrow, when the Nine Nether Realm replies and confirms the rejection, we will leave immediately and go to the Nine Nether Realm together."
"OK."
Ye Tianjiao nodded, then remembered something and warned: "Your two male attendants... named Die Lan and Die Qing, can't be brought along!"
"There's something wrong."
Jiang Zhaoxue glared at him and turned to leave.
She returned to her room and saw Dieqing and Dielan making her bed.
Qingye only loves fighting and doesn't like doing these trivial things at all. Once she returned to Penglai, except for changing her clothes, she left all her daily care to Dieqing and Dielan.
Seeing Jiang Zhaoxue coming back, Dieqing and Dielan saluted her and whispered, "My Lady, the hot water is ready."
Jiang Zhaoxue responded and raised his hand, saying, "Go out."
The two of them went out of the door immediately, closed the door for Jiang Zhaoxue, and then stood guard outside.
Jiang Zhaoxue was very tired after consuming a huge amount of spiritual energy that day. After soaking in hot water, she felt sleepy, so she went back to bed and fell asleep.
Not long after she fell asleep, the barrier spread silently in her courtyard, and then ice and snow came from a distance in an instant. Die Qing and Die Lan only then noticed something was wrong, and their swords were frozen to the ground before they could even draw out.
Then a young man appeared, wearing a purple-black robe with wide sleeves and patterns of the sun, moon, mountains and rivers on it. He stepped on the ice and snow, walked up the steps of Jiang Zhaoxue's cottage with a creaking sound, and pushed the door open.
The entire room, except for Jiang Zhaoxue's bed, was covered with ice, but Jiang Zhaoxue was unaware of it and slept soundly.
Pei Zichen approached her step by step. Everything in his eyes was black and white. Even she seemed to be sleeping between the pages of a book.
But he still couldn't help but move closer, sensing the other person's breath as he walked.
The entire room was filled with other people's spiritual energy.
The most seemed to be two butterflies. He felt the spiritual breath of the two demon cultivators, sat down on the edge of the bed, and his eyes fell on her fingers.
She had just touched the boy with this hand.
She held the other person's jaw with one hand and used the other hand to put makeup on the boy.
That child should be seventeen, just like the age when he first met her. She was used to being indulgent with these young people. Whether it was him, Ye Tianjiao, or Li Xiuji, seventeen was always the best age...
The sound of the child playing with her just now echoed in her ears, surging together with the other party's breath lingering on her fingertips, and the murderous intent that had been suppressed for a long time instantly rose up.
His breathing became rapid, and he stared at the person on the bed. He couldn't help but stretch out his hand and reach towards her neck.
He couldn't tell what he wanted to do, whether he wanted to kill her or touch her. He just panted rapidly and couldn't help but stretch his hand to her neck. Until the moment he touched her -
The warm, soft and smooth touch seemed to flow from his fingertips into his whole body like a torrent. He was so startled that he stood up and stepped back, looking at the person lying on the bed in horror.
With this touch, color gradually appeared on the man's body.
Start from the soles of the feet and spread all the way up.
Snow-white feet, half of the calves exposed, a pure white gauze long skirt, a pink and golden blanket covering half of the body, the exposed neck is as smooth as jade, and the plump lips are bright and tempting...
Pei Zichen stared blankly at the person on the bed, who seemed like a fairy revealing its true form in the night. His breathing became heavier, and the intense touch just now still echoed in his fingertips, making him unconsciously swallow the saliva that had accumulated in his throat at some point.
He couldn't help but want to move forward subconsciously.
I want to touch it again...
The feeling of having all five senses returned was addictive, but he knew clearly that it was not allowed.
If he touches her again, he won't be able to leave tonight.
He has to go.
He has to go.
He couldn't stay here and let her play with him as she had done in the past.
Pei Zichen turned around in a hurry and turned into a flying bird and flew away.
The shattered ice and snow followed him away. When he returned to the Demon Palace in the Nine Nether Realm, his heart was still beating fast. He sat cross-legged in the center of the magic circle he had drawn to suppress his violence. In this deserted place, he took a long time to relax. Finally, he mustered up the courage and lowered his eyes to look at the finger that had touched her.
He moved tentatively, his fingertips touching his palm.
No feelings, except for her.
He is a spiritual body, and his essence is no different from that of a Nascent Soul. The five senses of a spiritual body are thousands of times more sensitive than those of a physical body. The lack of touch is essentially a form of protection.
But I can only touch her...
This means that the feeling of touching her will be a million times more acute.
He looked at his fingertips silently, struggled for a long time, then slowly raised them and hesitantly placed them on the tip of his nose.
Smells so good.
It was her scent, the fragrance of flowers mixed with the freshness of grass and trees.
However, Pei Zichen felt a familiar spiritual energy mixed in.
This spiritual breath was hidden too secretly, so secretly that if he was not a spiritual body, he would not be able to detect it at all.
It was already accustomed to hiding in the world, but Pei Zichen's spirit had been fighting it for a thousand years and was extremely familiar with it. He recognized it in just a moment.
Book of Destiny.
Pei Zichen's expression suddenly turned cold, and he realized it instantly.
The Book of Destiny is watching Jiang Zhaoxue.

The author has something to say: [Small Theater]
Reader: How can I hate without feeling anything?
Author: If you only have feelings for one person, then that's the real hatred to the point of death.
Don't worry, everyone. I figured it out after thinking about it for a long time. The subjectivity issue that everyone is worried about has been resolved, so you can watch it with peace of mind.

As she spoke, she came to the reincarnation pond with the documents in her arms, and saw two young men, one in blue and one in green, standing not far away.
The two young men were similar in appearance and both were extremely handsome. They wore wide-sleeved and gorgeous clothes, which were embroidered with intricate patterns made of crystal-clear stones, which glowed brightly in the sunlight.
Seeing Jiang Zhaoxue, they bowed respectfully to him and said with a gentle smile, "The lady is here."
"Butterfly blue, butterfly green."
Jiang Zhaoxue greeted them. These two were servants who had served her when she was young. They were very good at close combat and their bodies were butterflies, which made them extremely beautiful.
Back then, because Shen Yuqing didn't like it and was also concerned about the rules of the Lingjian Immortal Pavilion, he didn't bring the two attendants of the opposite sex with him.
Now that she is back in Penglai, everything is arranged according to the arrangements she made when she was young. Dielan and Dieqing are not married yet, so they come back to continue serving her.
"Where's Aoba?"
Jiang Zhaoxue nodded and greeted them. The two of them turned sideways, revealing Qingye who was preparing tea and snacks for her.
"Aoba is preparing food for you."
Die Lan likes to talk, and she responded proactively: "I've been waiting for you for a long time."
