Chapter 3 Chapter 3 Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion Pei Zichen, greetings to all of you...
Watching Shen Yuqing walk away, Jiang Zhaoxue finally felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
Qingye, who was standing beside her, put a cloak on her and said anxiously, "Lady, please come in quickly. Your spirit has been destroyed and you haven't recovered properly yet. You can't hide this anymore. You must tell the Island Master and the Young Master..."
"Alright, alright." Jiang Zhaoxue held her down and said seriously, "Qingye, I'm very weak now. Please let me get some sleep."
"Then this matter..."
"I'll tell it myself," Jiang Zhaoxue promised Qingye, "I'll definitely tell my parents and brother, don't worry!"
Qingye looked at her with eyes full of distrust, but seeing Jiang Zhaoxue's firm attitude, he didn't say much. He could only let Jiang Zhaoxue push her out of the door and warned her, "Then you must tell me! Don't give your son-in-law any more face!"
"I know, I know," Jiang Zhaoxue said like coaxing a child, "I'm telling you now, don't come in."
As he spoke, Jiang Zhaoxue closed the door, and the room finally became quiet.
She walked back to the desk tiredly, sat down, rubbed her forehead, and couldn't help but curse: "What's going on..."
"Master, you are so amazing."
Anan's voice echoed through his mind again, full of admiration, "In just a split second, you managed to come up with this trick of feigning illness and successfully evaded the Heavenly Fate Palace! Now that you're staying in Yunfu Mountain, with no restrictions in place, you can run away whenever you want! What should we do next? Run?!"
"I can't run away."
Jiang Zhaoxue held his forehead and sighed, "With the heart contract, there's nowhere to go."
"ah?"
Anan was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening: "Oh, that's right, the Heart Contract can sense the other party's location. As long as he wants to know where you are, he can know where you are... Then what will you do?"
Jiang Zhaoxue did not answer it. She closed her eyes for a long time and sorted out the plot from the fragments in her dream.
This is how the plot in the book unfolds from an overall perspective.
Mu Jinyue was poisoned by her, and then Pei Zichen was sent to the Wuyue Forest near the Jiuyou Realm barrier to look for the trumpet creeper. As a result, when he arrived at the Jiuyou Realm monument, a strange magic circle suddenly opened in the Wuyue Forest, and an extremely ferocious black snake appeared.
The black snake beat up all the disciples, and no one from the outside could enter the formation and exit. When Lingjian Xian Pavilion was about to give up on Pei Zichen, Mu Jinyue received a message and regardless of her life, she entered the Wuyue Forest to save him.
For Mu Jinyue, Shen Yuqing had no choice but to take risks.
But Shen Yuqing had just used the Book of Destiny, and in order to protect Mu Jinyue's spiritual roots, his spiritual power was insufficient, so he could only fight the black snake to a draw. So at the critical moment, Shen Yuqing fled with Mu Jinyue in a panic, leaving Pei Zichen alone to face the black snake, which was already at the end of its strength, giving Pei Zichen a chance to take advantage of the situation.
That night, Pei Zichen took out the precious Tianji Lingyu from the black snake.
After being poisoned by a snake and spending a night with Mu Jinyue, Shen Yuqing began to realize that he had feelings for Mu Jinyue that went beyond that of a master and disciple.
Mu Jinyue went through life and death for Pei Zichen and became the white moonlight in Pei Zichen's heart.
The gears of fate for the three of them began to turn.
As for her?
It's not written in the book, but I know from my imagination that she must have had a hard night.
If Shen Yuqing was beaten, could she run away? If Shen Yuqing was injured, she would bear half of the injuries. Without her, would Shen Yuqing still be able to feel the charm of the heroine even when he was seriously injured?
Maybe he would have been beaten by the black snake's tail so badly that he couldn't tell whether he was a man or a woman.
"So now you have two paths."
Anan suddenly spoke up, pondering, "The first is to change Shen Yuqing. He hasn't confirmed that he likes Mu Jinyue yet. If you can change the fact that he likes Mu Jinyue, or even make him like you, then you can prevent him from standing against the male protagonist, reverse his fate as a villain, and save you from a dead end. And you can also get a happy marriage. It really is a win-win situation for both love and career!"
"Can you tell what I'm thinking?"
When Jiang Zhaoxue heard Anan's words, he immediately realized something was wrong.
Jiang Zhaoxue knew about the existence of the destiny beast since he became a destiny master, so he did not doubt its authenticity.
However, there are too few fortune tellers, and a fortune teller with a fortune beast has not been seen in three thousand years. Jiang Zhaoxue's master was only three hundred years old when he died, and he was only at the Spirit Transformation Stage. Jiang Zhaoxue only read about the existence of fortune beasts in books, and she does not understand the characteristics of fortune beasts.
She asked harshly, and Anan was frightened into silence.
Jiang Zhaoxue slammed the table and said coldly, "Don't play dead. Can you sense my emotions and know what I'm thinking?"
"Well, I can indeed sense you in your sea of consciousness." Anan hesitated, "If you don't want to... just give me some energy, and I can transform."
After hearing Anan's words, Jiang Zhaoxue pondered for a moment, then poured a stream of spiritual power into his sea of consciousness.
After a moment, Jiang Zhaoxue felt the shape of a bird gradually appear in his sea of consciousness, and then a pitch-black crow appeared in front of Jiang Zhaoxue.
Jiang Zhaoxue: "..."
No, why is her zodiac animal a crow? Is it so unlucky?!
As if sensing Jiang Zhaoxue's thoughts, the bird turned its head sadly and said, "A beast's fate follows its master. You're just cannon fodder and have bad luck. I didn't want to look like this."
Hearing this, Jiang Zhaoxue took a deep breath, raised his hand and said, "It's not important, get out of my sea of consciousness!"
"Okay."
Ah Nan, knowing current affairs, immediately flew out of his sea of consciousness and landed on the table next to Jiang Zhaoxue. He tilted his head and said, "Okay, now I can only sense your emotions of happiness and sadness. Let's continue discussing the important matters. What do you think of my plan just now? Please pour me a cup of tea, thank you."
"Not very good."
Jiang Zhaoxue poured it a cup of tea and pushed it over. Anan tilted his head and asked in confusion, "What do you think?"
"I can't put my life in someone else's hands." Jiang Zhaoxue pondered and analyzed calmly, "As long as the Heart Contract exists, I will always be passive. No matter if I want to change Shen Yuqing, myself, or even Pei Zichen, I can't let this Heart Contract continue to exist."
"But that thing...isn't it hard to solve?"
Anan hesitated, blinking his eyes and trying hard to recall, "It seems to be a contract written in the Book of Destiny? Can this thing be untied?"
"able."
Jiang Zhaoxue spoke up, and Anan became interested: "How do you solve it?"
"There are two options. Either you use your own life to erase the contract you made. Or, you must use the divine artifact born from heaven and earth." Jiang Zhaoxue raised her eyes and calmly uttered a name, "Heavenly Jade."
"Heavenly Jade?" Anan pondered, "Sounds familiar."
"The Jade of Heaven's Secret was conceived by heaven and earth, and it only appears once in a million years. It contains the purest power of heaven and earth, and is the only artifact that can break the contract written in the Book of Destiny. However, as a gift from heaven, the Jade of Heaven's Secret can only be obtained by those with great luck. It just so happens..."
"Pei Zichen!!" Anan reacted instantly and exclaimed in surprise, "It's tonight, the Heavenly Jade will be born!"
"That's right."
"So what you wanted to do from the beginning was to steal the Heavenly Jade?" Anan finally realized Jiang Zhaoxue's plan. He turned around in shock. "You pretended to be sick to buy time. You deliberately reminded Shen Yuqing how miserable you would be tonight after being poisoned by the fire. You even told him that if he came back to see you tonight, it meant he liked you. You wanted him to let his guard down. You did everything just to make it easier for you to escape tonight?!"
"Correct answer."
"Weren't you afraid that he would cure your fire poison?"
"That's even better." Jiang Zhaoxue sipped his tea and analyzed, "Without the fire poison restraining me, I can move more freely. But Shen Yuqing definitely doesn't believe that I've truly been annihilated. He has to keep the fire poison in me to restrain me and torture me. Didn't you hear what he said? As long as I hand over the antidote, he'll forgive me. He must be waiting at Luoxia Mountain for me to admit my mistake and give me the antidote."
"How come you are so smart?" Anan looked at Jiang Zhaoxue with admiration in his eyes.
Jiang Zhaoxue tucked her hair behind her ears and was about to be humble in words and vain in her heart when she heard Anan continue, "You have such a small brain, yet you can think so quickly!"
Jiang Zhaoxue froze at this. After a moment, she put down her hand and said coldly, "If you don't know how to speak, you don't have to. That's enough."
Jiang Zhaoxue stood up and began to pack up everything she needed. As she did so, she said, "Stop talking nonsense. My fire poison still has four hours left. Let's hurry to Wuyue Forest and grab the Heavenly Secret Jade. After we break the heart contract, we'll find a place to hide from the fire poison and figure out where to go later."
"Okay, but I have a question." Anan stood at the desk, frowning and thinking deeply.
Jiang Zhaoxue quickly packed up her things and said directly, "Put it down!"
"Isn't it bad for us to steal the hero's things like this?"
Hearing this, Jiang Zhaoxue paused, turned around in shock, and looked at Anan in disbelief.
Anan was frightened by her eyes and stammered, "Do...what?"
"How could someone as uncultured as me have a Fate Beast as morally upright as you?!" Jiang Zhaoxue sighed. She changed into a purple dress she never wore, pulled out a silver mask from a drawer, and covered her face with it, mockingly saying, "You've probably forgotten that he killed me in the book, haven't you? If you think this thing belongs to him, then he's not only responsible for the fate, but also for his life. What's wrong with me stealing my enemy's possession?"
Jiang Zhaoxue slammed the cabinet door shut and squatted on the ground, scraping gold dust. As he scraped, he said, "If you think he had nothing to do with me killing me in the book, then what does the Heavenly Jade have to do with him? I took the artifact by my own ability, so what's wrong with that?"
"That makes a lot of sense."
Anan was completely convinced by her, and then realized: "Then we can not only snatch... no, get the Tianji Lingyu, we can also get a lot of magic weapons. We all know his chances, we are rich!"
"Isn't that right?"
Jiang Zhaoxue seemed to have anticipated this. She filled her Qiankun Ring and Qiankun Bracelet to the brim, her hands gleaming with gold, a stark contrast to the ransacked room. She smiled and said, "Our good days are yet to come."
As she spoke, she turned to look outside the door and said loudly, "Qingye!"
Qingye had been squatting at the door. Upon hearing Jiang Zhaoxue's words, he hurried into the house and asked anxiously, "Lady, have you made an agreement with the island master and the young master?"
"It's a deal."
Jiang Zhaoxue pulled Qingye into the house, closed the door, covered her with his own clothes, and quickly drew a magic circle on the ground.
Qingye watched Jiang Zhaoxue do everything in a daze, and listened to Jiang Zhaoxue's instructions: "Qingye, I'm not poisoned. Don't ask too much. Just sit here and pretend that I'm being sensed by Shen Yuqing for seven hours. I'm going to do something big tonight. When I succeed, I'll let you know. You must immediately take Yunfushan and our Penglai disciples and leave Lingjian Xian Pavilion and run to Penglai."
"ah?"
Qingye was confused by this and looked at Jiang Zhaoxue in disbelief: "What are you going to do?"
"I'm going to take you back to Penglai." Jiang Zhaoxue patted Qingye's shoulder and said seriously, "You must stick to your mission and make sure no one discovers that I'm leaving. Wait for my news."
"Yes! I'll wait for news from the Lady!"
Aoba spoke excitedly.
Jiang Zhaoxue smiled slightly, then stood up and walked to the divination table. He pointed his index and middle fingers together, and a jade stick tube inlaid with gems appeared in the air, shining brightly in the dark night.
Every fortune teller has several divination tools. Some use tortoise shells, some use copper coins, and some use yarrow... Jiang Zhaoxue's divination tools are this Qiankun fortune stick tube and a less commonly used Yin-Yang tortoise.
Jiang Zhaoxue raised her hand and brushed across the lottery box, her eyes covered by a crow feather, and suddenly sent a voice message to Anan: "Anan."
Anan looked up in confusion, then heard Jiang Zhaoxue say, "You said... if this is a book, are my love and hate, and everyone else's love and hate, real? Did I do what I did in the past, and what Shen Yuqing did today, all come from my own heart?"
Anan was stunned for a moment, and before he could answer, he heard Jiang Zhaoxue chuckle: "Never mind, it doesn't matter. The most important thing is to survive."
As she spoke, she put her fingers together and the fortune-teller began to shake. A golden magic circle rippled beneath her feet, and spiritual energy surged around her. Jiang Zhaoxue quickly formed seals with her hands, chanting a request in her mind, pouring spiritual energy into her palms: "The way of heaven is unpredictable, I gamble my luck, and I will escape and find someone—"
She raised her hand, and a magical light shone in her palm. The Qiankun fortune-teller in front of her eyes spun rapidly. She raised her hand and pressed it towards the magic circle. The entire magic circle glowed with light and rushed towards the Qiankun fortune-teller: "Go!"
A jade stick flew out from the stick tube and floated in front of Jiang Zhaoxue. Two blood-red ancient characters "Shang Shang" appeared in front of Jiang Zhaoxue, looking extremely beautiful and cute.
Jiang Zhaoxue's eyes lit up with joy, and he turned around and called out, "Anan!"
Anan immediately flew over and landed on her shoulder. Jiang Zhaoxue raised her hand and with a flick of her finger, the jade scepter instantly vanished. A magic circle surged beneath her and Qingye's feet, and then the two of them disappeared into the room together.
When the light appeared again, Jiang Zhaoxue and Anan opened their eyes and saw that there was a forest around them. Jiang Zhaoxue looked around and felt a gloomy atmosphere.
"Is this Wu Yuelin?" Anan asked.
Although it is familiar with the plot of the book, it has just arrived in this world and is not familiar with everything.
Jiang Zhaoxue responded, took out a compass, calculated the direction, and walked forward with Anan.
Seeing that she didn't hesitate at all, Anan couldn't help but wonder, "Master, where are we going?"
"Nine Netherworld Realm Monument."
"Why go there?"
"The Heavenly Secret Jade is a gift from Heaven. It will only appear when someone has great luck. In other words, it doesn't just appear randomly, but only appears when it senses Pei Zichen."
Jiang Zhaoxue recalled the plot and patiently explained, "So we have to go to the place where the Heavenly Secret Jade was born in the book to wait for Pei Zichen. The book says that the Heavenly Secret Jade appeared at the Nine Netherworld Realm Monument, so we have to go there."
"Then why don't we just follow him?" Anan wondered.
"The spirit snake in the book that even Shen Yuqing found troublesome was originally just an ordinary snake. After the Heavenly Secret Jade was born, it accidentally ate the Heavenly Secret Jade and became so powerful. If we want to get the Heavenly Secret Jade, the best time is when it is born. If it is swallowed by the spirit snake, it will be troublesome."
The thought of the mutant snake that could beat up Shen Yuqing made her head hurt.
"What does this have to do with waiting for Pei Zichen at the boundary marker?" Anan tilted his head as he stood on her shoulder, not understanding.
"When the Heavenly Secret Jade appears, the spiritual energy fluctuations are extremely strong. We should go to the place where the Heavenly Secret Jade appeared in advance and set up a spirit-seeking formation that can sense the spiritual energy fluctuations." Jiang Zhaoxue said, walking out of the forest and seeing a vast wilderness. Jiang Zhaoxue holding a compass, continued, "Standing at the center of the formation, any spiritual energy fluctuations will be sensed by us first. So we have to come here first to set up the formation. It would be better if we have time to set up a large formation to kill the spirit snake."
"I understand." Anan nodded, then looked at the empty ground and felt strange: "Why is there such a large open space in this forest?"
Jiang Zhaoxue glanced at her, put away the compass, and then took out the Qiankun fortune-telling box.
"The laws of nature are unpredictable, so we gamble our luck on heaven. Good luck! Break the formation—open!"
As he spoke, a "Shangshang" flew out of the fortune stick holder, and then Anan saw a transparent blue barrier appear before his eyes. Jiang Zhaoxue put away the fortune stick holder and led Anan, saying, "Let's go."
As he spoke, Jiang Zhaoxue led Anan into the barrier. As soon as they entered the barrier, Anan saw a dilapidated temple with bright lights standing in the wilderness.
The lonely dilapidated temple seemed to be surrounded by a layer of blue smoke under the moonlight, which looked particularly strange. The two walked forward together and stepped into the temple.
The temple is dilapidated, but it has all the necessary offering tables, cushions, lamp stands, etc. An altar separates the small temple into inner and outer rooms. On the altar is enshrined a faceless deity, holding a book in one hand and a pen in the other, with a majestic appearance.
"The one enshrined here is Lord Haocang."
Anan murmured, Jiang Zhaoxue looked up at him and said nothing more.
It is said that when the God Hao Cang created the world and built the human world, he took a piece of his heart and turned it into the Book of Destiny, which records the birth, old age, sickness and death, the order of cause and effect in the human world. A person's life is determined by the Book of Destiny.
Three thousand years ago, the Book of Destiny appeared in the hands of Taoist Gujun, the ancestor of Lingjian Immortal Pavilion. Under the guidance of the Book of Destiny, Taoist Gujun established Lingjian Immortal Pavilion to maintain the Great Dao of Destiny. Lingjian Immortal Pavilion then became the protector of the Book of Destiny.
Unexpectedly, a thousand years ago, in the Great Wilderness, a being later known as the Nine Netherworld Emperor appeared. He proclaimed that destiny was unpredictable and that man could conquer nature. To escape the constraints of the Book of Destiny, he abandoned his spiritual cultivation and instead embraced evil spirits. To further cultivate, he created the Nine Netherworld Realm. Wherever the Nine Netherworld devoured, spiritual energy would be transformed into evil spirits, rendering spiritual practitioners unable to survive. The Nine Netherworld spent eight hundred years completely devouring the Great Wilderness, and two hundred years ago, it crossed the Cangming Sea and attempted to devour the True Immortal Realm.
Then the most brutal battle in the True Immortal Realm that Jiang Zhaoxue could remember took place. In that battle, all the elite members of the True Immortal Realm were lost, and among Shen Yuqing's fellow disciples, only he and his two junior sisters were left.
Finally, Patriarch Gu Jun used all his strength to completely defeat the Emperor Xuanming, built a barrier, and completely sealed the Jiuyou Realm behind the Cangming Sea.
The Nine Netherworld Realm and the True Immortal Realm are as incompatible as water and fire. Their only consensus is that Lord Haocang created the world.
This place is where the Nine Netherworld Realm and the True Immortal Realm meet, so it is not surprising to see this God.
only--
"Why is it so clean here?" Anan wiped the candlestick and frowned. "In this desolate place, there are still people guarding this dilapidated temple?"
“This is not a temple.”
Jiang Zhaoxue listened, watched the compass needle spinning wildly, and finally confirmed it.
She put away the compass, glanced at the beam above, then squatted beneath it and began to draw a formation. As she did so, she explained, "This is the Nine Netherworld Boundary Monument. This temple is an illusion created by the monument. You must step into the monument's protective formation to see it. It's its final layer of disguise."
"We are now in the boundary marker?!" Anan was surprised.
Jiang Zhaoxue drew the formation and said, "You can say that."
This temple is a boundary marker, so Jiang Zhaoxue understood why the book described encountering a black snake "in the Nine Netherworld Boundary Monument".
Because Pei Zichen entered this temple.
The Tianji Lingyu needs to sense Pei Zichen's birth, so her mission tonight is very clear.
Bring Pei Zichen into this temple.
As long as he enters the temple, the Tianji Lingyu will naturally appear.
If she remembered correctly, Pei Zichen was boasting about his extraordinary talent, the sect's white jade, and the number one golden elixir...
But it is still a golden elixir.
The future is bright, just like now, there is no power to resist her.
As long as we take the Heavenly Secret Jade before Shen Yuqing shows up, this matter will be settled!
Jiang Zhaoxue made a quick calculation and quickly set up the Soul-Seeking Formation. He then began to draw another large formation.
Although she had made plans to grab the Tianji Lingyu as soon as it was born, if she was unlucky and was really swallowed by the black snake when they met again, she would have to make plans.
She never fights a battle she is not sure of.
She was indeed not as good as Shen Yuqing in facing the black snake head-on, but if she was given enough time to draw the formation like now, it would be hard to say who would win or lose.
After all, a fortune teller gambles with the Heavenly Dao, borrowing its power. Anything is possible. And when she draws a formation, the larger it is, the greater her chances of winning when gambling with the Heavenly Dao. Right now, she has plenty of time to set up a grand formation that could attempt to annihilate a Mahayana cultivator.
She was drawing and thinking at the same time, with such an awesome formation, why not wait for Shen Yuqing to come and kill him?
But when she thought about the existence of the heart-to-heart contract, she didn't want to commit suicide.
Jiang Zhaoxue spent a long time drawing the formation, and after nearly half an hour, he finally finished it.
After she sat down to catch her breath and rest for a while, she heard Anan excitedly: "I heard someone's voice!"
"I heard that, too."
Jiang Zhaoxue closed his eyes and continued to meditate.
Anan was a little surprised when he saw this: "Hey? Don't you want to go out and take a look? What if they haven't entered the barrier?"
"impossible."
Jiang Zhaoxue must speak.
According to the description in the book, after Pei Zichen entered the mountain, he encountered a ghost wall and was entangled by monsters in the mountain. When he ran outside the barrier of this temple, a tree demon appeared. During the fight with the tree demon, the tree demon shattered the barrier and slapped Pei Zichen and others in.
Now that she had opened the barrier, the tree demon only needed to slap him in with one slap.
If this slap had been more accurate, it might have sent Pei Zichen directly into the temple.
She doesn't exist in the book, but Pei Zichen was still photographed in. Now she has even opened the barrier first, which greatly reduces the difficulty. Is it possible that Pei Zichen still can't get in?
As soon as Pei Zichen entered the barrier, she immediately jumped onto the beam.
She set the center of the spirit-seeking formation on the beam. In the center, she could accurately feel all the fluctuations of spiritual power. When Pei Zichen entered the temple and the Tianji Lingyu moved, she would get the jade in the first place.
Everything went so smoothly and so silky smooth, Jiang Zhaoxue smiled as she thought about it.
After a while, screams of "Ah!" "Ah!" and "Ahhhhhhhh!!" were heard from outside. Anan said nervously, "Master, I feel something is wrong."
Jiang Zhaoxue continued to meditate, ignoring him, and said in a pretentious manner, "Don't interfere too much with fate, otherwise you will end up making things worse."
"No," Anan said anxiously, "but they were all dragged away!"
Jiang Zhaoxue was stunned, then quickly opened her eyes. Turning around, she saw dozens of disciples being entangled by vines and dragged into the forest, getting farther and farther away from the temple where she was.
Although these disciples were fighting hard, compared with the tree demon, they were as powerless as children.
Jiang Zhaoxue hurried out of the temple, staring blankly at the scene. He couldn't help but wonder, "What's going on with the Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion? Are these disciples so useless?! And Pei Zichen, wasn't he the champion of the sect's Baibi Tianzhi Zhizun Sword Trial? He can't even defeat a tree demon. Is Zhongzhou doomed?!"
"Stop scolding me, my lady!"
Anan flapped his wings and said anxiously: "Help!"
Jiang Zhaoxue was speechless. She observed the situation and quickly analyzed it, "We can't just take action. Humans can have too much influence on fate. It's probably just me who's disrupting fate right now. I'll transform and rescue Pei Zichen and bring him into the barrier first. You go intercept the tree demon."
She is a demon cultivator, and using an animal's body to rescue people is the way that least interferes with fate.
Anan nodded and rushed out immediately. As a life beast, she shared Jiang Zhaoxue's spiritual power, so dealing with a tree demon was no problem for her.
Anan moved quickly. Jiang Zhaoxue glanced at the disciples who were being dragged and hung up one by one, and began to identify Pei Zichen.
Over the years, she rarely paid attention to men other than Shen Yuqing. She had no impression of young disciples like Pei Zichen at all. Now that she was suddenly asked to recognize someone, she could only rely on their features to identify them.
Fortunately, Pei Zichen was the leader of the team that came to find the Lingxiaohua this time. The Lingjian Immortal Pavilion would issue a golden task card as a mark to each task leader. Jiang Zhaoxue took a glance and saw a young man.
The young man was wearing a disciple's uniform with moon-colored embroidered cranes and silver wide-sleeved outer garment. He had a youthful, baby-like face, a high ponytail, and was full of youthfulness.
He was dragged inside by the tree demon, struggling and cursing the most fiercely. The golden jade token dangled from his waist, and he desperately kicked the ground and fought against the vines, cursing as he resisted: "Let me go! You evil monster, if you dare to pull me again, I will dig up your roots, wipe out your crops, burn this forest, and kill your ancestors for eighteen generations! Gao Wen, it's all your fault! I told you to stop running around! Go die by yourself and don't drag us down! I will never let you go, Gao Wen!!"
He had a rich vocabulary for cursing, and he would beat and curse at the same time without even taking a breath.
Although Jiang Zhaoxue felt that this seemed a little different from the Pei Zichen she had read about in the article, after comparing the characteristics, she found that he was a young man, good-looking... fairly good-looking, and a team leader...
That’s right, it’s him!
Jiang Zhaoxue couldn't think any more. After sticking a strength talisman and an agility talisman on himself, he pounced forward, concealed his spiritual energy, transformed into a white tiger and rushed towards the young man.
She and Anan were far superior to the tree demon in realm, so the tree demon couldn't tell their true strength at all, thinking they were just two ordinary animals charging at it. With a sneer, it dragged "Pei Zichen" into the air to avoid Jiang Zhaoxue, and shouted in a voice that was neither male nor female: "Little beast, you can't eat the food of the tree master. Leave immediately, and I will spare your life!"
Jiang Zhaoxue's attempt to pounce failed, and he immediately chased after him.
The tree demon sneered and swung the boy around like a cat, while countless vines whipped at Jiang Zhaoxue. He said coldly, "Since you want to die, I will take you with me!"
Jiang Zhaoxue didn't bother to pay attention. She dodged the whipping vines swiftly and kept chasing "Pei Zichen" who was being swung by the vines.
The boy had already been thrown so hard that his head was spinning. He screamed and shouted, "Help! Help! Ahh ...
Her movements became faster and faster, forcing the vines to dodge again and again. At the same time, Anan continued to attack the tree itself.
The tree demon's heart is in the trunk. Once it is hollowed out, it will no longer have the power to fight back.
The tree demon was dealing with two people at the same time. Even though the two men didn't use any spiritual power, it was a little overwhelmed. Its movements became slower and slower, and it began to curse in panic: "Where did you come from, little beast? Do you understand the rules of the Black Moon Forest? If you have spiritual power, retreat, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless! Retreat! Retreat!"
The tree demon's scolding became more and more urgent. Seeing that Jiang Zhaoxue was about to bite the vines that bound "Pei Zichen", the tree demon finally lost its patience and shouted, "You're looking for death!"
The moment the sound fell, flames wrapped in blue light suddenly exploded from the tree demon's body, rushing towards the surroundings like a tsunami. Seeing the flames, Anan suddenly opened his eyes wide and subconsciously rushed towards Jiang Zhaoxue, shouting: "This is the Nine Netherworld Fire, run!!"
But it was too late. The blue flames rushed towards Anan's protective magic circle, knocking her aside. The flames rushed forward unimpeded, swallowing up the sky and the earth, rushing towards Jiang Zhaoxue like a giant dragon.
Jiang Zhaoxue immediately turned around and raised his tiger claws. Just as the talisman was about to appear, a sword light broke through the air from the forest!
Wherever it passed, frost and snow froze, chasing the fire waves. The moment before the fire waves submerged Jiang Zhaoxue, they froze the fire waves into ice.
The wind was filled with the scent of pine, and time and space seemed to stand still at that moment. The mountains and rivers were silent, and the moon set silently.
The moonlight was blocked by something, and shadows covered her eyes. Jiang Zhaoxue stretched out her tiger claws and looked up blankly, and saw the young man Mu Yue stepping on the waves not far above her, looking down at her.
He was wearing a white robe embroidered with blue cranes, the standard uniform for disciples, and a silver cloud-patterned gown with red breast ornaments hanging on either side of the gown. His long hair was tied up high with a jade crown, and he was handsome with a bit of the youthful vigor that only a teenager could have.
He grasped the hilt of the spinning sword with his backhand, his wide sleeves dancing in the wind, and the jade ornaments remained motionless.
The waves of fire turned into ice sculptures standing behind him. He blocked all disasters, like a god descending to the world, looking down at the world.
"Pei Zichen of the Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion--" the young man spoke, his ethereal voice like striking jade, and he swung his sword with his backhand. The sword passed through the frozen forest and pierced through the tree monster. Everything behind him that was frozen exploded instantly, and screams echoed in the forest. Everything that exploded turned into broken ice crystals and scattered, reflecting colorful light under the moonlight.
Under the dreamlike moonlight, the young man looked at Jiang Zhaoxue, placed one hand on his chest, slightly bent his thumb and middle finger, and leaned forward slightly to salute. His tone, which should have been cold, unconsciously took on a touch of tenderness.
"Greetings, everyone."
The author has something to say:
----------------------
【Small Theater】
Jiang Zhaoxue: "If you think the Heavenly Secret Jade belongs to him, then the revenge for him killing me also belongs to him. If you think he hasn't killed me yet and I shouldn't pursue the things in the book, then this Jade that belongs to him in the book doesn't belong to him either."
Anan: "Fuck, Master, you're a genius at logic!"
Jiang Zhaoxue: "Proud."
