Outliers
According to the demon tribe's calculations, the phoenix, which was still in its infancy and not yet an adult, said sullenly, "Then I will come to bring you white flowers from the cliff every year."
Tinglan: "There's a custom in the East Territory to place white flowers on the graves of the deceased."
Jiang Bailu: ...
You really are stubborn.
Seeing his stunned look, the Queen suddenly laughed. She blinked and said, "But I don't care about that."
This smile broke the deadlock. It seemed like a signal that the time for the Emperor Ji to lecture on big principles had passed. The pain below was that he was speaking to him in the identity of Huo Tinglan.
Jiang Bailu realized that she was teasing him, but he didn't get angry. Instead, he took the opportunity to climb up.
"Regardless of all this, you still won't let me go to the East Territory."
Tinglan said seriously, "You can't. The white flowers on the cliff can't affect me, but you can."
Jiang Bailu: "I can stand there motionless, and you treat me as a decoration."
Tinglan shook her head: "No, if you just stand there, I can't help but be distracted by wondering what Jiang Bailu is doing, what Jiang Bailu is thinking about, whether Jiang Bailu is thinking about me, whether Jiang Bailu is thinking about other girls. And if you move again, my whole mind will be occupied by you, and I won't be able to do anything else."
After removing her majestic presence, the Human Emperor was just an ordinary girl. She half-truthfully complained to her beloved, "You know, I'm more or less an emperor. I have countless things to do every day, and I'm in charge of all the mortals in the four realms. How can I be alone if I only think of you?"
She spoke sincerely, and if Jiang Bailu had not been ignored by her countless times because of her mechanical skills, he would have almost believed it.
He sneered, "Liar, all talk and no action. When I was building the mechanical bird behind closed doors, I ignored you for days and nights."
Tinglan admitted frankly: "Yes, I was lying to you."
The corners of her lips raised in a provocative arc, as if she was certain that the person she deceived would not do anything to her.
The fact is that Jiang Bailu really won't do anything to her.
But after this incident, the uneasiness in his heart dissipated a little.
Because he understood that no matter how much he became the Human Emperor, Huo Tinglan was still the same Huo Tinglan, the Huo Tinglan he liked.
Their past spans eight hundred years, which is firmly recorded in time and cannot be erased by anyone.
He made the final decision:
"Anyway, there are 365 days in a year. I'll let you be Ji Tinglan for 364 days. You have to give me Huo Tinglan back for one day."
Tinglan said, "You're not right. There's also a leap year that comes every four years!"
Jiang Bailu: "Then you will return Huo Tinglan to me for two days."
Tinglan suddenly smiled with her eyebrows curved, making Jiang Bailu's blood jump. This look usually appeared when she was planning something bad.
"You're so easily satisfied. My senior sister asks me to go back to Cangfeng Mountain for at least half a month every year to be the third junior sister."
Jiang Bailu: ...
"Senior Sister can get those people in the East Territory to let you go, but I can't do that."
Now it was Tinglan's turn to be speechless - he was so confident.
Before she could figure out anything, she heard Jiang Bailu excitedly say, "Yeah! I can ask Senior Sister to get you out! After all, all those people from the East Territory combined can't beat Senior Sister alone!"
Tinglan: ...
Once again, she felt that she might have fallen in love with a fool.
When Shen Siyan opened the door, she saw the two of them laughing happily.
When he was hesitating whether to go forward or step back to leave space for them, Jiang Bailu had already discovered him.
"Brother Shen, why are you here?"
Shen Siyan raised his eyebrows: "It seems that I came at the wrong time"
Jiang Bailu wanted to nod, but he was concerned about the face of his senior brother from the next mountain who was not so direct, so he stopped nodding and was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Shen Siyan said with deep sorrow, "I held you in my arms when you were little! I even fed you rice porridge!"
Speaking of which, that was Changxia's first time taking care of a child, and he helped a lot.
Jiang Bailu said carefully: "Then I will take care of you in your old age."
Shen Siyan: ...
He didn't want to be upset by Jiang Bailu anymore, so he turned around and left. He pretended not to hear Tinglan's apology behind him.
After leaving Tunan Pavilion, there is Xiaoling Mountain, which is under martial law. Now almost all the cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage are preparing to go to Chi Zhouhai. People on the road are hurrying back and forth, for fear of wasting time.
Shen Siyan now had no way to find someone to chat with, so he sat on the white jade ladder of Tunan Pavilion and stared at the sky in a daze.
The moon is now at its zenith, and the bright moonlight is as cold as water, without the warmth of the sun during the day.
Chi Zhouhai is not in the east, south, west or north of Cang Xuan. It seems to be in another space, connected to Cang Xuan by countless spatial nodes.
No matter where in the four realms, as long as there is a space gate, Cang Xuan calls it the "border".
Jiang Bailu sat down next to him without knowing when, and said something to him: "Brother Shen, what are you looking at?"
Shen Siyan looked at him for a while, and suddenly asked: "Now everyone is going to kill the monster, what do you think?"
Jiang Bailu said blankly: "What ideas can I have?"
Shen Siyan kept looking into his eyes.
"Aren't you a demon?"
!
Jiang Bailu felt the hairs on his back stand up. He put away his innocent look and said in a low voice with his head down:
"Brother Shen, what are you talking about?"
Jiang Bailu's mind was working rapidly:
His senior brothers and sisters were all close to him. They discovered his identity when he was very young and never harmed him. Tinglan discovered it through their daily interactions, and there was no need to mention his master.
Even the junior brothers and sisters behind him did not know his identity.
How did Senior Brother Shen know this? Does the Sect Leader also know about the other people in Yunting?
If the headmaster and the others knew about it, how would he deal with it? If it was just Senior Brother Shen who discovered it accidentally, how would he respond?
Shen Siyan suddenly smiled. In fact, he was also good-looking, with sharp and handsome eyebrows and eyes. However, because he loved to wear white clothes and liked to joke with others, the sharpness of his body was diluted.
Jiang Bailu felt a little uneasy at the sight of him smiling with his fake face.
"Put away the spiritual power in your hand. Even if the Human Emperor helps you, you can't kill me."
not to mention……
Chen Siyan glanced inside Tunan Pavilion. Jiang Bailu had just come out without closing the door, so he could directly see the Queen pouring tea in the center of the hall.
What's more, the Human Emperor may not necessarily help anyone.
Those who are not of my race must have different hearts. This is an eternal truth.
Jiang Bailu was still worried. He glanced at the guards around him, and thought to himself as if he had been prepared: "They can't hear or see."
Jiang Bailu's eyes darkened: "Brother Shen has great tricks."
Shen Siyan: "A little trick."
"You haven't answered my question yet. What do you think when humans and monsters fight each other?"
Jiang Bailu was stunned. She didn't expect him to be so obsessed with this question, but she still answered truthfully: "I don't have any idea."
It’s true that he is a demon, but he grew up among the crowd and has no sense of belonging to Chi Zhouhai.
But he is not human.
Cang Xuan is not where he belongs either.
"Cang Xuan wants me to kill monsters, but it's not in my nature to do it. Chi Zhouhai wants me to kill people, but my experience prevents me from doing it."
Jiang Bailu smiled mischievously: "Who cares? They should have thought of this outcome when they sent me to my master. At worst, I can live a little longer, collect their bodies one by one, and cry at their graves more often. Even if they don't forgive me, they can't jump out and beat me up."
Shen Siyan looked at him with a strange expression. No wonder this kid just spoke so casually about taking care of him in his old age and seeing him to the end of his life. It turned out that he had planned it for a long time.
but……
It's quite open-minded.
He said lazily, "If you want freedom, don't go anywhere. Stay in Cangfeng Mountain for the rest of your life. No one can do anything to you."
Jiang Bailu thought to himself: Do you even need to tell me this? Everyone in the world knows how powerful my master and senior sisters are.
But now his master and senior sister were not around, and he couldn't beat Shen Siyan, so he could only think about it in his heart.
Shen Siyan saw through his slander and said nothing.
He waved his hand, lifted the guards' restrictions, and without any disgust, he put his head on his hands and lay down on the white jade ladder, continuing to look at his moon.
But the same moonlight cannot shine on Changxia.
There is no sun or moon in Chi Zhouhai.
There is only blood and broken walls here, like the relics left over from the last era after a great war.
Chi Zhouhai's demon's desire for Cang Xuan seemed to be engraved in his blood and soul. He knew no day or night, no fatigue, and would want to squeeze into Cang Xuan as long as there was a tiny gap.
This stems from Chi Zhouhai's lack of "rules".
Although part of Cang Xuan's Six Paths was cut off in the fairyland, it is still complete overall.
The immortal world doesn't dare to do anything about it because they share the same set of "rules".
In other words, the fairyland was once a part of Cang Xuan.
The turbid water descends to become the earth, and the clear water rises to become the sky.
Ninety thousand years ago, the immortals, feeling proud of their superiority, divided the immortal world. However, the immortal world alone could not develop its own six paths, so it could only leave a passage and share the six paths with Cang Xuan.
That passage is the ladder to heaven, Jianmu, by which mortals ascend to heaven.
This is also the reason why, four thousand years ago, except for a small group of people like Ji Zhao, most cultivators were not very interested in the heavenly punishment.
Could it be that the Immortal Realm could still destroy Cang Xuan?
They themselves won't live long this way.
What people didn’t expect was that the fairy world could really do such a thing.
Chi Zhouhai is different.
Changxia heard from Zuo Qin that according to his calculations, Chi Zhouhai should be the remaining part of another Six Paths.
Another world was destroyed, leaving only a lineage of demons.
They wandered the universe in fear, searching for a way out. Finally, one day, they were connected with Cang Xuan for unknown reasons.
At this time, the desire for stability of the survivors who had wandered for tens of millions of years reached its peak, and they desperately wanted to regain their complete six paths.
And Cang Xuan is the big fat meat that can make up for himself.
But why should the Cang Xuan people give up their own peace of mind for them?
Changxia happened to be a native of Cangxuan.
So her sword showed no mercy at this moment.
