Chapter 13 Immortal Lord 013%
“…”
Chong'an didn't allow Qu Yaoyao to go find Qu Yushu, and he was not joking with her.
He explained calmly, "You are now a fugitive from Xianxu. If you rashly go to him before the truth about Huasong is revealed, you will only cause him trouble."
In a few words, Chong'an extinguished Qu Yaoyao's enthusiasm. Like an abandoned animal, she leaned against the window, looking in the direction where Qu Yushu had left and asked, "What should I do?"
She understood the principles, but now she was in the underworld with no one to rely on and had no idea where to go.
"Let's find a place to hide first."
Chong'an thought for a moment and said, "Go north, there's a town called Yunta. I know there's a place you can hide in. You can go there and hide for a while."
Qu Yaoyao nodded and said obediently, "Okay."
At this moment in the delusion.
The leader of the Medicine King Sect clenched the book of crimes and gritted his teeth as he read out a name: "Qu, Yao, Yao!"
"It was Qu Yingsi's youngest daughter who killed my son. From now on, my Yaowang Sect and Xingyang Sect will be sworn enemies and will never coexist!" He looked at Xie Qingxun and asked with suppressed anger, "Where is Qu Yaoyao?"
Xie Qingxun stood on the high steps with his hands behind his back and calmly uttered two words: "Escaped."
"She ran away?!" Hua Tianhai's temperament changed drastically after losing his son, no longer as honest and good-tempered as before. "Qu Yaoyao has no spiritual roots and no cultivation, how could she escape from the Delusion Ruins?"
As if remembering something, his face twisted a little, and he sneered sarcastically, "I forgot that there is still an engagement between Qu Yaoyao and Qingxi Immortal Venerable. Could it be that the Immortal Venerable is deliberately protecting Qu Yaoyao and letting her go?"
Xie Qingxun had a blank expression on his face, his eyes fixed on Hua Tianhai's face.
Gu Tianci, who was standing by, could no longer tolerate this and shouted, "How dare you!"
"Master Hua, are you crazy? Who gave you the courage to offend the Immortal Lord!" Even the master of the Wanmen Immortal Sect had to be courteous to Xie Qingxun when he came in person. Why did Hua Tianhai have the right?
Hua Tianhai knew he was too impulsive and quickly knelt on the ground. "Please calm down, Immortal Venerable. I have lost my beloved son and my emotions are difficult to control. I hope you will not be offended."
Xie Qingxun remained silent, looking down at Hua Tianhai, who was kneeling on the stage. He waited for a moment before responding calmly, "I have already scattered the Green Emperor's orders throughout the upper and lower realms. I will be able to capture Qu Yaoyao soon."
This is best.
Upon hearing this, Hua Tianhai kowtowed to Xie Qingxun again and said loudly, "This woman was ruthless in slaughtering her fellow disciples. Now she has defected from the Immortal Sect and her whereabouts are unknown. I hope that after the Immortal Venerable finds her, he will put aside his personal feelings and hand her over to the main sect for handling and give an explanation to the entire Immortal Sect!"
He was determined to kill Qu Yaoyao, but was afraid that Xie Qingxun would step in to protect her because of their engagement.
Xie Qingxun curled his lips coldly and promised: "Of course."
When he decided to push Qu Yaoyao out to take the blame, he had no intention of letting her live.
Tomorrow will be a full moon.
After Hua Tianhai retreated, Xie Qingxun waved his hand to let Gu Tianci leave as well. Turning his palm, he saw the icy blue magic light in his palm surrounded by dark mist, faintly revealing a bloody color.
This body is becoming increasingly difficult to control.
Xie Qingxun pursed his lips and stared at his palm, his brows and eyes frosted with a bit of weirdness, and a hint of red gold appeared in his eyes.
When Fang Shu entered the palace, Xie Qingxun was dozing with his forehead propped up on a golden chair high up on the steps. Wisps of evil energy lingered around his feet, shrouding the entire palace in a layer of mist, obliterating the celestial aura.
"Master..." Seeing this scene, Di Shu was so scared that he quickly opened the barrier, fearing that someone would accidentally push the door and break in.
He took three or two steps to the higher level, knelt beside Xie Qingxun and tried to help him dispel the evil spirit, but was instead covered in evil spirit.
"Don't waste your energy." Xie Qingxun said in a low voice.
As he slowly opened his eyes, his enchanting, bewitching red-gold pupils revealed themselves, thickening the sinister aura surrounding him. Subtly, his facial features shifted, with Xie Qingxun's face now adorned with vibrant makeup. His thin lips were a deep crimson, a streak of blood slithering down the corners.
He looked like a completely different person, not like a banished immortal, but more like a fallen god or ghost.
Di Shu was unable to resist the evil spirit from Xie Qingxun and could only retreat in embarrassment. He half-knelt on the ground and asked worriedly, "How did the evil spirit from Master become so severe?"
Xie Qingxun wiped the blood from the corner of his lips with the back of his hand, and instead of answering, he asked, "Has the Cold Pond Snow Lotus been found?"
A flash of frustration crossed Di Shu's face. "My disciple is incompetent. I have never been able to find the snow lotus. There is no movement from Qu Yingsi either."
Xie Qingxun's face became paler and paler. The overflow of evil spirit that he had suppressed with his cultivation had caused him to suffer a severe backlash. If he didn't release it, he might lose control and become bloodthirsty like he did that night.
"That's strange..." Xie Qingxun murmured, and couldn't help but think of what Qu Yaoyao had said to him.
Xie Qingxun appeared to believe her confession, but he still had doubts. He felt that Qu Yaoyao's words contained many doubts. How did her sister get into the Ruins of Delusion? How did she evade the guards and steal the snow lotus? Where did she hide the snow lotus?
Xie Qingxun originally thought that she had helpers who took the Hantan Snow Lotus away, but now so much time has passed and there is still no news of the Hantan Snow Lotus. Xie Qingxun had to suspect that the Hantan Snow Lotus had already merged into Sister Qu Yaoyao's body, and he personally separated her and the snow lotus.
"Perhaps, I should go find Qu Yaoyao myself." Too many doubts remained unanswered, and Xie Qingxun found that he could not let Qu Yaoyao die too early.
It just so happened that the full moon was approaching and the evil spirit in his body could no longer be suppressed, so he could find an excuse to go out and hide.
"If anyone asks about the days I've been away, just tell them that snow beasts are rampant in the lower realm and I'm going down to investigate."
Di Shu obeyed the order.
His master had four disciples, and he was the only one who knew his master's true identity. Worried about Xie Qingxun's health, he wanted to go with him, but Xie Qingxun said calmly, "Mo Xuanxiao has been searching for Dragon Mountain for half a month and hasn't returned. Bring him to see me."
"Okay." Di Shu hesitated for a moment, "Then where should we meet up with Master?"
Xie Qingxun narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment before slowly uttering three words: "Longxiao Tower."
“…”
Before leaving Yingxian City, Qu Yaoyao followed Chong'an's advice and went to a pawnshop, where she pawned all her jewelry. She then went to a clothing store, bought a cloak and a hat, and wrapped herself up tightly.
"Hey, have you heard? The daughter of the leader of the Wanmen Xianzong has rebelled against the sect, and the one in the Xianxu Sect has even issued the Qing Emperor's Order."
"Is this true? Fellow Daoist, do you know which sect leader's daughter this is?"
"It seems to be the youngest daughter of Xingyang Sect's leader Qu Yingsi, named Qu Yaoyao. It is said that this leader's daughter is bloodthirsty and slaughters her fellow disciples. She has an extremely evil heart."
Qu Yaoyao wrapped herself in her cloak and hood. As they walked past, she heard someone say, "Qu Yaoyao? Why do I remember this young lady from Xingyang Sect being engaged to the guy from Wangxu? Could it be that I remembered the wrong person?"
"Daoyou is not mistaken, it is this woman."
"She caused such a big disaster and brought shame upon Qingxi Immortal Venerable. Not only will Xingyang Sect be in big trouble, but even the marriage will probably be canceled."
"The Green Emperor's decree has been issued. Isn't it a foregone conclusion that the marriage is annulled? Let's quickly think about how to accept this Green Emperor's decree."
Qu Yaoyao listened to their entire conversation. After they walked away, she dared to call out to Chong'an, "What is the Green Emperor's Order?"
Chong'an did not respond.
Qu Yaoyao waited for a moment and called out again, "Chong'an?"
This time Chong'an heard it, and he seemed to be thinking about how to explain it to Qu Yaoyao. After a long while, he said, "The order of the Immortal Lord is the Emperor's Order. There are only two people in the entire cultivation world who are qualified to issue the Emperor's Order. In order to distinguish between these two Immortal Lords, the cultivators added the word "Zun" before the Emperor's Order."
The Purple Emperor's Order refers to the Immortal Venerable Zi Cang in Zhenxu, and the Green Emperor's Order refers to the Immortal Venerable Qingxi.
Throughout the world of cultivation, the Immortal Emperor's decree was like the decree of a monarch in the lower realms; who dared disobey the Emperor's orders? Furthermore, the rewards granted by previous Emperor's decrees were extremely generous. This time, the Green Emperor's decree directly awarded ten Marrow Cleansing Pills, instantly increasing the cultivator's cultivation by a hundred years.
"He's really generous in catching me." Qu Yaoyao said sullenly after hearing this.
As she reached the city gate, she saw cultivators pasting portraits onto the wall. A whole stack of portraits, scattered across the floor by the wind, landed at Qu Yaoyao's feet. She saw the woman in the painting, wearing a floral dress and a bright smile, who bore a striking resemblance to herself.
If she hadn't covered her face with a veil, she would probably have been surrounded by all the cultivators in the city.
Not far away, a group of white-robed cultivators passed by. The man in the lead wore a tight-sleeved, tight-fitting uniform and a sword hung from his waist. Seeing a portrait scattered on the ground that looked familiar, he bent down to pick it up. After taking a closer look, he was puzzled, "Isn't this Yaoyao?"
As he was speaking, the Green Emperor's Token landed in front of him along with a voice transmission. When he saw the contents of the token, his face turned pale. The woman beside him asked, "Young Sect Master, what happened in the upper realm?"
Qu Yushu said nothing, but waved his hand and crushed the rumor talisman. Yunzhi's tearful voice rang out, "Young Sect Master, the young lady has been taken away by the people of Wangxu. Please think of a solution quickly!"
A cold wind blew, knocking the portrait out of Qu Yushu's hand. He seemed stunned, and it took him a long time to find his voice: "Yaoyao, something happened."
Qu Yaoyao didn't dare to look anymore. She was afraid that Qu Yushu would find out and implicate him, so she hurried out of the city with red eyes.
Chong'an seemed to sense Qu Yaoyao's sadness and comforted her: "Don't cry, they are not worth your sadness."
"I'm not sad." Qu Yaoyao felt that Chong'an's comfort was a little strange. "My brother is very good to me. He even came to see me before he left, worried about my safety. But I didn't live up to my expectations, so I still made him worry."
Chong'an's tone was unclear, "Do you think he treats you well?"
Qu Yaoyao was puzzled, "What do you mean by that?"
Chong'an didn't explain any further. "Let's go. We have to get to Yunta Town before dark. It's not very peaceful there at night."
.
The teleportation formation consumes a great deal of the cultivator's spiritual energy, and Chong'an cannot use it again in the short term. He also needs to save his spiritual energy to set up a hidden barrier for Qu Yaoyao.
Qu Yaoyao's cultivation was almost non-existent, but fortunately she still had the sachet given to her by Qu Yushu. She took out a wind-controlling talisman that could help her escape from it, and flew to Yunta Town stumbling and bumping.
She was still a little late, the sun was almost setting.
Carrying a pile of food and clothes, Qu Yaoyao followed Chong'an's instructions and turned left and right in the town, and ran to a remote forest in the town.
"It turns out there really is a tower in this town." Facing the last rays of sunset, Qu Yaoyao looked up and saw the octagonal tower looming in the distance, rising straight into the clouds.
Chong'an didn't respond. He just urged, "It's going to be dark soon. Yaoyao, hurry up and find the cave I mentioned."
Qu Yaoyao quickly agreed, not daring to delay any longer.
Perhaps God was jealous of her having the help of an expert, and things did not go as planned. They did not find the cave before dark.
It was snowing here too. Although they were in the same area, the snow in Yunta Town was heavier than in Yingxian City. After the sun went down, the moon disappeared, and a cold wind blew around.
Qu Yaoyao was so frightened when she got lost that she stopped where she was, a little bewildered, and whispered to Chong'an, "Did you hear any sound?"
Boom, boom, boom—
There seemed to be a dull sound of footsteps getting closer and closer. Qu Yaoyao looked around and felt that the sound seemed to be coming from all directions.
"Directly ahead, be careful." Chong'an's cold voice came to my ears.
Qu Yaoyao looked forward, only to see a whirlwind of snow in front of her, a blanket of white that made it impossible to see anything. Suddenly, a shrill roar echoed from the forest, and a white, twisted ghost face appeared in the snow, rushing straight towards Qu Yaoyao.
"Ah!" Qu Yaoyao was so scared that she ran away.
"Is this a ghost?!" This was the first time she had seen a ghost in her life.
The little girl in a large cloak was stumbling across the snow in the forest while holding a bunch of things. Before she had run far, she noticed a white ghost face appearing behind her, followed by blizzard ghost faces on her right and left.
Qu Yaoyao was trapped inside, and only then did she truly realize how uneasy Chong'an really was.
This is not just uneasy, it's deadly!
In a critical moment, if you only think about relying on others to save you instead of thinking of your own solution, you are a real loser. Dropping the things in your hands, Qu Yaoyao was afraid but at least she still had some sense and quickly took out the life-saving sachet in her arms.
She pulled out four exorcism talismans, took a stance, and calmed herself down. As the talismans shone with golden light and ascended into the air, she chanted the exorcism instructions Chong'an had just taught her: "The Way of Heaven is complete, three and five are complete, the sun and the moon are together, and they will appear—"
Out, out, out...
Before Qu Yaoyao finished her command, the Red Lotus Karma Fire suddenly jumped out and surrounded her for protection. The red light around her became brighter. She saw a red-gold phoenix wrapped in flames, flapping its wings and flying out from her pendant.
Hundreds of ghosts howled and the world was filled with fire.
The author has something to say: Xiao Xuelian: Look! There is a big bird, a very big bird!
It’s raining heavily these days. Is it raining where you are, sisters?
