Chapter 107
Jiang Suiyan's heart was in turmoil, but the boundless thick fog around him had already framed his choice.
A hint of annoyance flashed across his clear black eyes. Jiang Sui Yan pursed his lips to suppress his emotions, his brows calmed, and he raised his foot to continue walking forward.
One step, two steps, three steps...
The familiar feeling of restraint arrived as expected, and the emerald green bracelet on the wrist began to heat up again after being quiet for a long time.
Jiang Suiyan's expression was indifferent, but a slight smile of pride appeared on his lips, as if he was a small animal that lurked cautiously, attacked decisively, and finally succeeded in pinning its prey under its claws. The soft and childish nature that was well protected by its parents had not yet faded, but the sharp and fierce nature of a hunter in his bones had quietly peeked out from under his soft and fluffy fur, an eager tip.
As expected, he probed his spiritual sense into the Jiuchun bracelet.
Sure enough, the Ruyi Yinhuajian emitted a faint silver light in the jade box, emitting the same restlessness as the Jiuchunzhan bracelet.
A hint of understanding flashed across the young man's clear black and white eyes. When he looked up again at the white mist slowly dispersing in front of him, his eyes were filled with anticipation.
A bright and beautiful girl in purple danced through the lush green forest, her steps light and her expression lively.
However, when he raised his eyes and frowned, there was always a subtle sense of disharmony.
"We're here." Pushing aside the branches in front of us, an elegant light brown wooden house came into view.
The beautiful and pure smile on the girl's face became even more charming when she saw the tall and handsome young man standing in the open space in front of the wooden house, and the strangeness in her smile disappeared silently.
"Chu Xu!" she called with a smile.
The young man looked over at the girl's figure. When his eyes met her figure, a smile filled her deep and handsome face. "Jingjia."
The girl walked over briskly.
Both of them are beautiful and graceful. Standing together among the green trees and the fresh breeze, with the golden sunlight shining on them, they are an enviable couple at first glance.
Jiang Suiyan's expression faded, and his beautiful dark eyes showed a coldness.
He expected Aunt Jingjia to appear.
Even illusions need something to rely on. When the mist dissipated, the experiences of A-niang and my aunt reappeared.
Those past events have almost all been hidden by the passing of time - Jiang Suiyan didn't know, his brother didn't know, and Shao Jishuang didn't know either.
Since it was not captured and deduced from their memories, it must have come from another source.
Jiang Suiyan gently turned the jade-like green bracelet on his wrist, recalling the strangeness of the Jiuchunzhan bracelet and Ruyi Yinhuajian along the way. What else was there to not understand?
Some extremely spiritual artifacts can carry part of the owner's emotions and memories. If the owner passes away, they will be left outside. When they accidentally meet a very suitable person, that person will have a chance to see the fragmentary memories of the predecessor through these artifacts.
It seemed that this illusion had brought back the memories attached to the Jiuchun Bracelet and the Ruyi Yinhua Mirror, which was why he saw the scenes in the white fog.
The Jiuchunzhan bracelet and the Lanqiuying bracelet are a pair of twin Sumeru bracelets. He has reacted... Is his brother also walking in this endless white fog like him?
As for the Ruyi Yinhuajian, although Jiang Suiyan is not very clear about the details, from the information currently known, it must be related to his aunt.
Shao Jishuang... Jiang Suiyan's long, thick, black eyelashes gently drew a light and agile arc.
He probably has an equally close relationship with Aunt Jingjia and the Holy Vessel.
Before I knew it, my thoughts drifted a little too far.
Jiang Sui Yan looked at the interaction between Aunt Jingjia and the handsome young man in the memory that reappeared in front of him, and coldly pulled his thoughts back.
The appearance of the handsome young man was beyond Jiang Suiyan's expectations, but upon closer thought, it was also reasonable.
The second prince of the demon clan, His Highness Chaoxi.
He has always had a strange attitude towards the Jiang Suiyan brothers and Shao Jishuang.
In Jiang Suiyan's memory, he and his brother had never had any deep interactions with the second prince of the demon clan. Therefore, the strange closeness and complex emotions shown by the second prince of the demon clan were particularly strange.
Some things always happen for a reason.
Jiang Sui Yan gradually calmed down, looking at the changing scene in front of him and thinking, is this the reason why Chao Xi treated them strangely?
The past events recreated in the illusion continue.
Jiang Suiyan also understood the general situation.
At that time, A'niang led away most of the pursuers sent by the Tianji Clan, and the pressure on Aunt Jingjia's side was suddenly relieved. In addition, Aunt Jingjia was very smart and quickly got rid of the Tianji Clan's pursuit and disappeared into the dark.
But my aunt did not let go of those things. She took out the sacred artifact Flame Lamp she brought from the Tianji Clan and started trying to control the Flame Lamp again.
The attempt did not go well.
It was as if Yan Mingdeng knew that she had escaped from danger and no longer responded to her in the same way as in the Tianji Clan.
My aunt was not reconciled.
Jiang Sui Yan watched quietly.
As a bystander, he clearly realized that his aunt's mentality had become extreme.
She has a demon in her heart.
My aunt was trapped by her inner demons.
She was trapped in a nightmare. Although her body was free, she was still trapped in the dark and lonely palace.
My aunt wanted to use the power of the Flame Lantern to seek revenge, but when the Flame Lantern stopped responding to her, she began to try various secret techniques.
Fortunately, my aunt still had a bit of rationality. She only used spiritual plants and rare materials to set up spells and never killed anyone.
On the way to search for various spiritual plants and strange stones, Aunt Jingjia and the second prince of the demon clan, Chaoxi, who goes by the alias Chuxu, get to know each other.
The two of them had once guarded a spiritual plant for several months, and the elegant wooden house behind them was built during that period.
The two fell in love as they got to know each other. Aunt Jingjia seemed to have given up the idea of controlling Yan Mingdeng and was willing to stay in the wooden house for Zhaoxi.
Jiang Suiyan should have been happy, but as the white mist dispersed and condensed, scenes after scenes cast a hazy light in his eyes: Aunt Jingjia's beautiful face, the strange coldness revealed when she was alone, the inquiry hidden under her bright smile when she looked towards the morning light...
So Jiang Sui Yan knew that Aunt Jingjia had never given up.
She had known Chaoxi's identity for a long time and intended to gain something from Chaoxi or had other plans... Jiang Suiyan couldn't see clearly this.
As for the second prince of the demon clan, Chaoxi, he had once devoted himself to him with a passionate love.
But when Aunt Jingjia confessed that the Tianji Clan was approaching, his first choice was always the interests of the demon clan.
The Tianji Clan was once the most reliable ally of the Spirit Clan. They deceived the Spirit Clan's trust and attacked them in secret, causing the Spirit Sea to become silent and the Spirit Clan to bleed like a river... But what does all this have to do with the Demon Clan?
It is impossible for Chaoxi to stand against the Tianji clan for Jingjia, and it is impossible for him to fight against the Tianji clan, which is at its peak, for the sake of the orphans of the Ling clan.
The only thing Chaoxi could do for his lover was to conceal her whereabouts and quietly send her into a secret place that he had accidentally discovered when he was a child.
——The Blazing Sun Tower, the Blazing Sun Secret Realm.
It must have been several years since Jiang Suiyan first saw that memory. It had to be said that Aunt Jingjia was truly a genius. Although she hadn't succeeded in controlling the Flame Lantern for her own use, she had successfully helped it transform into a human form.
Seeing the blood-eyed baby boy being held in Taoist Feng Xun's arms in a strange manner, Jiang Sui Yan raised the corners of his lips.
really.
Taoist Fengxun is Jingjia's only friend.
In the Tianji Clan Temple, Jingjia and her sister depended on each other, busy practicing and hiding their hatred.
She had nothing except her sister.
After meticulously planning her escape, Jingjia separated from her sister. Haunted by her inner demons, she exhausted all her energy and plunged headfirst into a path of no return.
She was busy collecting spiritual plants and studying secret techniques... Apart from her lover Chaoxi, she only had Taoist Fengxun as a good friend.
Years of desperate gambles and madness made Jingjia pale and haggard, but she was still very beautiful. Her clear and outstanding bone structure made her look beautiful even though she was sick.
However, the girl who used to snuggle up to her sister with a lively smile has long been lost in the years.
It can't be found.
She was rarely sober.
Jingjia chose to enter the Secret Realm of the Blazing Sun on her own initiative, without anyone forcing her - that was the final chapter she wrote for herself.
After placing a pair of small bronze mirrors in the baby's cradle, Jingjia looked at Chaoxi deeply, turned and walked towards the entrance to the secret realm surrounded by golden light.
The figure gradually faded.
After a long moment, Chaoxi spoke, his voice slightly hoarse: "You want to take him back to Xuanjian Pavilion?"
"Yes." Taoist Feng Xun smiled and said, "You know, hundreds of years ago, I observed the stars and discovered that I would have a disciple in the future..."
"I don't like this predetermined fate. I deliberately ranked my apprentice, who still hasn't even appeared, in an attempt to confuse fate with a false position." He shook the baby, who was gazing at the surrounding scenery with a pair of pure blood-red eyes, and chuckled: "I have refused to accept a disciple for many years. Now it's long past the time I calculated to accept a disciple. Bringing this little guy back now will not only fill the apprentice position that has been vacant for many years, but also fill the position that has been vacant for many years."
After a moment of silence, Chaoxi said, "It's up to you."
…
This time, after the scene was obscured by the white fog, the situation that followed was completely different from before.
The white fog that seemed to be impossible to escape from gradually faded. Jiang Suiyan's watery and cold black eyes moved. He stood there, quietly waiting for the white fog to completely dissipate.
After nearly an incense stick of time, the white mist completely disappeared.
Jiang Sui Yan seemed to sense something and looked towards the place where spiritual energy was fluctuating.
A translucent figure floated in the air, and as if it sensed his gaze, it turned around, revealing a gorgeous face.
——Aunt Jingjia.
Jiang Sui Yan pursed his lips slightly.
A little further away, his brother and Shao Jishuang stood in two different directions, each looking at him with concern.
After confirming with each other that everyone was safe, Jiang Suiyan and the other two started moving almost at the same time.
They met in front of Jingjia's illusory figure.
Jiang Mingyan and Shao Jishuang carefully examined the black-eyed boy with a happy face again before they were completely relieved.
"I'm fine, not hurt at all." Jiang Sui Yan carefully comforted his brother and lover, and after making sure that they had no injuries on their bodies, he raised his eyes and looked at Jing Jia who was looking at them with a smile.
"……aunt."
Jingjia heard the young man who looked very similar to her sister calling out softly.
"It's me." Jingjia responded softly.
"We were all trapped in an illusion earlier..." Jiang Suiyan saw the affirmative looks from his brother and lover, and continued, "Is that the memory left on the Lanqiu Ying bracelet, the Jiuchun Lantern bracelet, and the Ruyi Yinhua Mirror?"
"That's right." Jingjia chuckled, her eyes nostalgic and gentle: "You are as smart as your mother."
Jiang Suiyan wrinkled his nose in annoyance, but still asked frankly, "Aunt, you and my mother have a very good relationship, but why didn't you go to Wuzhou to find my mother?"
