Chapter 175 Encounter
"Meet Fairy Qingyuan."
"Good day, fairy."
Whenever Jiang Jiu strolled around the Ninth Heaven, she could hear a series of greetings. Every immortal bowed respectfully to her when they saw her. Even if the Immortal Lord Ji Chen came in person, he would not be so respectful.
"Don't mind me."
Jiang Jiu just came out for a walk because she was too depressed. She didn't expect that after leaving Zixia Palace, there were still many people looking at her with stars in their eyes.
Now he has truly become an idol in all six realms.
"No, no, no, the fairy is so righteous that she bravely braved danger alone to eliminate the threat of the demon. How can we ignore the fairy's contribution?"
"The fairy is here now, and everyone knows her. The Immortal Lord has promised you the position of God of War."
Jiang Jiu just stood there, and soon a group of immortals surrounded him. As Jiang Jiu tried to refuse, their words became more and more exaggerated.
The villain in Jiang Jiu's heart was so frightened that he crawled all over the floor.
However, she could only pretend to be calm and act indifferent on the surface.
"Thank you for your compliments."
Jiang Jiu said this politely and humbly, then turned around and tried to slip away, but Ji Chen just happened to arrive and landed opposite Jiang Jiu.
"If Fairy Qingyuan wishes to become the God of War, please speak to me."
Ji Chen also heard the discussion of those immortals. There was a look of recognition on his cold and aloof face. He was wearing a noble black and gold robe with a green jade pendant. At first glance, Jiang Jiu thought it was Yu Zimo.
It is rare to see Ji Chen wearing clothes other than white.
"No, I don't want it."
Jiang Jiu felt a little awkward when she saw Ji Chen. She knew that Ji Chen could hear her thoughts, and she always felt a little autistic as if her secrets could not be hidden in front of him.
Especially that day in the side hall, his back as he turned and left without hesitation left a psychological shadow on Jiang Jiu.
"Fairy, you have made great contributions, but I haven't arranged a reward yet. This is really unacceptable."
"Why don't you take the initiative to ask for it, and save me the trouble."
Ji Chen's pale golden eyes stared at her intently, as if the whole world could not catch his eye, but only her.
But the conversation was very distant, not even between a master and a disciple, but between the Immortal Lord and Fairy Qingyuan.
From that day on, Jiang Jiu felt this strange sense of separation from Ji Chen more than once.
It's like...
He still loved her very much, but for some reason he had to restrain himself.
"Nothing, nothing I want."
Jiang Jiu looked away, not wanting to continue looking at Ji Chen. It wasn't because she felt guilty, but because she didn't dare. She didn't know why.
The immortals who were eating melons looked at each other, confused by the scene before them.
According to rumors, the Immortal Lord and Fairy Qingyuan are master and disciple, and their love is forbidden. But why is it different from what was said in the legend when I saw them today?
It looks like...
These two people don't seem to be familiar with each other.
"In that case, it will be up to me to decide."
When Ji Chen said this, the expression on his face softened slightly, as if spring had arrived and the ice and snow had begun to melt.
"Well, whatever you want."
After all, Jiang Jiu was not used to facing Ji Chen like this. In the end, he just left after saying this and hurried away.
Leaving a group of immortals confused.
Really?
Did the Immortal Lord and Fairy Qingyuan have a fight?
...
Jiang Jiu didn't want to go back to Zixia Heavenly Palace. After all, that was Ji Chen's territory. He had just offended him in front of others. Wouldn't it be very embarrassing if he ran into Ji Chen when he went back?
She drifted aimlessly in the ninth heaven, choosing to walk in places with few people to avoid being surrounded.
For a moment, Jiang Jiu didn't know where he was going. He only knew that there was a heavy and ancient building in front of him, with a slight smell of blood. He could hear painful howls when he got closer.
Jiang Jiu paused, but still couldn't control his curiosity.
The Ninth Heaven is where the bright and clear gods live. It feels... a bit strange that there is such a dark place.
Jiang Jiu took a closer look and saw clearly that the words "Punishment Hall" were written on the plaque.
"oh..."
After seeing it clearly, Jiang Jiu couldn't help but feel stupid. Why did he need to look closer? He only needed to think about it to know where it was.
She turned around and wanted to leave, but the door opened at that moment and a familiar voice sounded behind her.
"Instead of locking me up in the Sea of Prison, it would be better to put me on the Immortal Execution Platform."
The female voice sounded a little childish, and Jiang Jiu's mind instantly flashed through Chen Xing's petite body.
"If you want, you can."
The man's tone of voice was quite cruel and cold, not like he was talking to a living being.
If the voice wasn't so pleasant and familiar, Jiang Jiu would have suspected that she had recognized the wrong person.
Jiang Jiu hesitated for a moment, but still turned around and looked over. As expected, it was Yun Shuili.
Yun Shuili obviously didn't expect to meet Jiang Jiu here. She was stunned at first, then subconsciously looked at Chen Xing who was tied up by the Binding Rope, as if she didn't want Jiang Jiu to see her.
"Is she going to be thrown into the sea of prison?"
Jiang Jiu asked.
“.....”
Yun Shuili fell into a suspicious silence, and the confusion lingering around him was visible to almost everyone.
"According to the laws of heaven, yes."
But in the end, Yun Shuili did not gloss over the truth, but simply brought out the Heavenly Law to prevent Jiang Jiu from saying any words of pleading.
He was worried that Jiang Jiu was so kind that he would plead for Chen Xing.
"I never thought I'd have the chance to see you again."
Chen Xing is petite, but even though she was tied up with the Immortal Binding Rope, she did not bend her body. She stood straight and looked at Jiang Jiu.
"Um."
Jiang Jiu couldn't say what he felt towards Chen Xing, neither hating him nor liking him.
"Zhenxing is dead."
Chen Xing said.
"I know."
Jiang Jiu had been to the ruins of the Seven Gods Temple and heard other people talking about it. He heard that he died under Chi Li's thunder tribulation.
"He didn't flee, nor did he resist the thunder tribulation. He was completely reduced to ashes."
Chen Xing kept talking to himself, seemingly not caring whether Jiang Jiu was listening or not.
"That's enough."
Yun Shuili frowned and wanted to ask Chen Xing to leave directly to prevent her from talking nonsense in front of Jiang Jiu.
"No, just listen to her."
Jiang Jiu waved his hand to signal Yun Shuili not to move.
Chen Xing smiled self-deprecatingly and continued.
"We don't understand why the Supreme God likes you so much. You have connections with the ancient demon dragon and even fish. You are obviously not worthy of the Supreme God. Why?"
"And Zhenxing never intended to murder you. Why! Why! Your soul and body were separated. Why did you almost die?!"
Chen Xing screamed hysterically, seeming very confused.
Jiang Jiu understood that Chen Xing probably liked Zhen Xing. Now the person he loved was dead, and died because of her. How could he not hate her?
"Because I'm still a mortal, a mortal in the Void Refinement Stage."
"The poison in the Nine Heavens will only make immortals feel uncomfortable, but it is fatal to mortals."
Jiang Jiu spoke frankly and said there was nothing she couldn't say. She had been misunderstood for too long.
"......?What?"
Chen Xing's expression froze on his face, and he turned to look at Jiang Jiu in disbelief.
