Chapter 20 Immortal Lord 020%
!!!
Qu Yaoyao thought she was dazzled.
Late at night, a heavy snowstorm was falling outside. A thin layer of snow coated Qu Yaoyao's long eyelashes, blurring her vision. She couldn't see clearly. She tried to console herself, but her legs gave way uncontrollably. She tried to run, but the snow buried her feet, and she ended up sitting down on the ground.
Xie Qingxun appeared very calm.
Ever since he changed into white clothes, he expected Qu Yaoyao to find out, but he didn't expect the seemingly silly girl to be so sensitive and become suspicious in just one day.
But what if I get discovered?
Xie Qingxun slowly put his mask back on, as if nothing had happened. Seeing Qu Yaoyao fall, he walked up to her, his tall figure casting a large, oppressive shadow.
"Why did you come out?" Without changing his voice deliberately, Xie Qingxun's voice was slightly lowered through the mask, and his tone was steady.
Qu Yaoyao's dress was covered with snow. She moved back in a panic, and the snow piled on both sides covered her skirt, almost burying her half.
Her eyes trembled as she tried to calm down, but her voice betrayed her emotions. "Who are you?"
Xie Qingxun stood with his back straight, his white silk robe sleeves swaying slightly.
Tonight, he wore a full-face mask, painted blue, resembling a cold, beautiful fox. He gazed down at Qu Yaoyao, seemingly laughing at her silly question. After a moment, he replied, "Xie Qingxun."
Xie Qingxun.
Qu Yaoyao silently repeated the name in her heart, her shoulders trembling slightly.
To this day, she still didn't know that Qingxi Immortal Venerable's name was Xie Qingxun. She just felt so foolish for being deceived. How could he have the nerve to lie to her? Did he really think she was blind and couldn't see clearly?
Misty eyes filled up, and Qu Yaoyao bit her lip, wanting to deceive herself that she was seeing things. But she couldn't. Di Shu was standing behind this person. He was Qingxi Immortal Venerable's disciple, and he could only be with Qingxi Immortal Venerable.
"Woo..." Qu Yaoyao couldn't hold it in any longer. Her breathing became rapid and tears were about to burst out of her eyes. She whimpered uncomfortably.
"Xie Qingxun, huh?" She murmured, raising her hand to rub her eyes fiercely. Her eyes were red as she stretched out her arms towards Xie Qingxun, her tone full of tantrum and arrogance, "Pick me up."
Xie Qingxun glanced at her. The girl in the snow turned her head to look at the ground, breathing rapidly and sobbing. She looked like she wanted him to pick her up but refused to look at him. She looked awkward and a little pitiful.
In all his life, no one has ever dared to order him in that tone.
Xie Qingxun should have turned and left, leaving her to rage in the snow. After all, without his protection, there were many evil demons out there who wanted to eat her. But as he listened to Qu Yaoyao's increasingly suppressed sobs, he frowned slightly. Knowing this girl's temper, he knew she was capable of such a thing.
If he didn't care, she would really sit in the snow stubbornly and not get up.
Under Di Shu's surprised gaze, Xie Qingxun moved.
His dark hair slid down the smooth silk fabric as he leaned over to Qu Yaoyao, ready to lift her up sideways. Suddenly, something unexpected happened. Qu Yaoyao, who had been throwing a tantrum and demanding he hold her, suddenly moved sideways to avoid his touch.
Snap——
The distance between the two of them shortened, and Qu Yaoyao quickly pulled off the mask on Xie Qingxun's face.
Their eyes met, and the man's cold phoenix eyes slightly raised his long eyelashes. At close range, Qu Yaoyao saw his face clearly this time. Tears instantly welled up in her eyes. She pushed him angrily and asked in a sobbing voice, "How long are you going to lie to me?"
Even if I don't like the face in front of me, it has already been engraved in my bones. It is so beautiful and cold, it is the real Qingxi Immortal Venerable.
The cold wind was blowing, and the mask that Qu Yaoyao had thrown away fell to the ground.
Xie Qingxun hadn't expected Qu Yaoyao to be so bold. He endured several accusations from her: "Is teasing people fun?"
"I treated you sincerely as a friend, but you lied to me and treated me like a fool. How could you be so mean!"
Chong'an was right, she was too naive, Xie Qingxun was really a bad person.
Qu Yaoyao was furious, but she couldn't utter a single curse word. She could only bring up the word "bad guy" again, wiped her tears, and shouted, "Big liar!"
"You're a big liar!"
Xie Qingxun couldn't bear to listen any longer.
Qu Yaoyao mistook his patience for a good temper, but in fact he was not a good person at all and could not stand such anger.
When Qu Yaoyao finished scolding him and wanted to run away, Xie Qingxun stretched out his long arm and firmly pinned her to the ground. He leaned over to look at her, his cold brows hinting at hostility. He pinched her chin and asked, "Who gave you the courage to speak to me like this?"
Qu Yaoyao's chin was pinched, and her chubby cheeks were pouting. The anger of being deceived washed away her timidity, and she retorted unconvincedly, "You have the guts to lie to me, so why can't I scold you!"
"fraud!"
"Qingxi Immortal Venerable, you are a big liar!"
"How could you be so mean? How could I ever like a liar like you? What did I do wrong to deserve your bullying?"
Qu Yaoyao became angrier and angrier as she spoke. Her sobbing became louder and louder, and she burst into tears out of pain.
Big tears fell on the back of Xie Qingxun's hand. Xie Qingxun was upset and his tone became colder. "If you cry again, I will strangle you to death."
"Then strangle me to death!"
"I'd rather strangle you than see you, a big liar!"
Qu Yaoyao had never seen anyone who dared to be so arrogant after doing something wrong. She was so angry that she raised her hand and hit him a few times. She kicked her legs while hitting him. Her legs were not weak and her heart was not panicked. She just vented her sadness and the snow flew everywhere. She cried uncontrollably like a child.
Xie Qingxun was hit on the chin by the snow kicked up by Qu Yaoyao. He lost control of himself and almost let the person get up and run away.
But before Xie Qingxun could grab her, Qu Yaoyao got up in such a panic that she couldn't stand steadily, her feet slipped and she fell to her knees in the snow.
The crying became louder. This time, Xie Qingxun did not hesitate, striding forward and directly picking her up. After a while, Qu Yaoyao was covered in snow, almost like a snowman. When Xie Qingxun picked her up, the snow fell down, and a small part of it fell into Xie Qingxun's sleeves.
Qu Yaoyao thrashed and struggled, crying and yelling that Xie Qingxun was bullying her, her temper even worse than before. Xie Qingxun was practically laughing at her. "You're so stupid you fell down, and you're blaming me for it?"
The temperature was extremely low at night, and the mist exhaled by Qu Yaoyao rose up like a cub of fire dragon ready to spit fire at any time.
Seeing that she still seemed unconvinced, Xie Qingxun used his arms to hold her tightly in his embrace, speaking clearly and trying to reason with her: "Listen, I have never lied to you. It's you who keeps saying you love me, but you don't even know my name."
The Immortal Lord Qingxi is named Xie Qingxun. He admitted his identity openly at the beginning and did not pretend to play a role-playing game. It was Qu Yaoyao herself who did not know who this name represented and kept calling him Lord Xie without any defense.
Qu Yaoyao refused to listen and just kept talking nonsense.
In her eyes, Xie Qingxun had long lost his trust and she would no longer believe anything he said.
Di Shu watched the whole show from the side and felt very uneasy. He always felt that his master was a little pitiful at the moment, and he couldn't help coughing to make his presence felt.
"That... Miss Qu."
Di Shu testified for Xie Qingxun, "Master didn't lie to you..."
He cannot call out Xie Qingxun's name, or most of the cultivators in the cultivation world cannot call out this name, but there are indeed many people who know that the Immortal Qingxi is Xie Qingxun.
Qu Yaoyao doesn't trust Xie Qingxun, let alone him.
Having escaped from the upper realm for several days didn't mean that Qu Yaoyao had forgotten how Di Shu had bullied her in the underground palace, so when Di Shu spoke, she simply covered her ears and buried her face in Xie Qingxun's arms, ignoring everyone else.
Di Shu shut up, and Xie Qingxun gave him a cold look.
Di Shu was a little embarrassed as he bit the bullet. Looking at Qu Yaoyao who was still crying, he was a little overwhelmed. "Master, what should we do?"
"What to do?"
Xie Qingxun snorted coldly, "If she wants to cry, let her continue crying. I haven't settled the score with her for deceiving me yet."
She cried and complained about how he had deceived her. In fact, Qu Yaoyao was the little liar. Her brother Chongnan, the lotus fragrance in her blood, and her true identity, all of which he would investigate one by one when he returned. He would definitely expose her to the truth.
"Let's go." Having offended the Yaowang Sect, they could no longer stay in Yunta Town.
Xie Qingxun lowered his eyes and glanced at the girl who was still sobbing in his arms, and prepared to rush back to Xianxu overnight.
“…”
Qu Yaoyao was forcibly taken away by Xie Qingxun.
Xie Qingxun stayed in the town for a few more days just to allow Qu Yaoyao to recover from her injuries and walk independently. He never thought that the girl would eventually be taken back by him. She would sob and ignore everyone, and even dare to throw a tantrum and get angry with him.
Without the usual laughter and noise, Xie Qingxun did not feel quiet in his ears, because Qu Yaoyao's crying was intermittent and almost non-stop, soaking his clothes.
I don't know where she gets so many tears and energy. She has no ability but a bad temper.
How could Xie Qingxun know that Qu Yaoyao's temper was actually her pride and persistence. In her world, she would explode once she encountered something that she believed she could not do or accept. She believed that people should be clean and honest with each other. It was not that she could not accept being deceived. What the snow lotus could not accept was that she treated him as a friend and was willing to risk her life to protect him, but in the end she found out that he was the one who bullied and hurt her, especially when that person was the immortal she once admired.
"Liar." Qu Yaoyao always gets tired after crying for a long time. After smelling the scent of Xie Qingxun for a long time, she felt as if she had returned to the time when she was still Xuelian. She closed her eyelashes and fell into a daze.
After falling asleep, she returned to the cold pond that gave birth to her.
The cold pool emanated a chill, its water clear and refreshing, making her unable to resist stretching out her petals in comfort. The fragrance of lotus permeated the air, causing a passing cultivator in the corridor to slow down and exclaim, "What a fragrant scent!"
They all assumed the fragrance came from a pond of snow lotus, unaware that it belonged uniquely to that insignificant little snow lotus. As the first thousand-year-old snow lotus to emerge from the cold pond, its fragrance could purify the foul, evil spirits within, yet also draw demons and evil spirits into a frenzy of vying for it.
Another evil demon was attracted by the little snow lotus.
A thin, black, and deformed demonic hand, with long, sharp, and dirty nails, slowly crawled out from the ground.
The little snow lotus was so frightened that it tightly wrapped its petals, its branches trembling helplessly, and it was so frightened that it was about to cry. At this moment, a sharp blue blade blocked the little snow lotus, and the approaching demonic hand touched the blue blade and broke in two.
"Are you turning a deaf ear to my orders?"
The Immortal Venerable in white appeared on the corridor, his brocade white fabric shimmering in the moonlight. He slowly walked to the edge of the cold pond. He stepped on the demonic hand that was trying to escape, and the Immortal Venerable gently curled his lips, "Did I ever tell you not to come near here?"
Hiss——
The evil hand let out an unpleasant roar, as if begging for mercy and life.
The almighty Immortal Venerable was cold and beautiful, and seemed to understand the words of the magic hand. He raised his long eyelashes and nodded his chin lightly, "Then I will forgive you this time."
Look, how noble and kind her immortal is.
The demon's subordinate escaped, and he saw the Immortal Venerable he admired again. The little snow lotus swayed its branches with joy, trying to attract his attention. The Immortal Venerable in White was indeed attracted by her. Walking to the edge of the cold pond, he looked at the little snow lotus that had wrapped her half open, and gently touched her with his long finger, "Are you scared?"
Xiao Xuelian wanted to answer him, but she couldn't even nod.
She could only open her petals as fully as possible and embrace the Immortal Lord with the fragrant lotus scent.
Sniffing the delicate lotus fragrance, the White-robed Immortal Venerable looked up at the night sky, his long eyelashes fluttering as he murmured, "Look, the full moon is here again."
Yes, it’s the full moon again.
Little Snow Lotus answered silently, feeling as though the Immortal Venerable was speaking to her. A gentle breeze blew, and the Immortal Venerable's skirt fluttered. He was filled with loneliness, and for a long time he stared at the night sky. Little Snow Lotus stared at him for the same amount of time he stared at the moon. Occasionally, the Immortal Venerable would come to his senses and look down at her, touching her petals with his long fingers.
This is such a beautiful dream.
Xiao Xuelian was immersed in a beautiful dream and refused to wake up. She sobbed and wanted to keep this immortal forever and tell him how much she loved him.
There are thousands of ways in this world, but the most difficult one is for spiritual plants to awaken their wisdom and transform into human form. There are hardly any spiritual herbs that can transform into human form within a thousand years, but Xiao Xuelian did it. She climbed out of the cold pond with joy and excitedly grabbed the sleeve of the Immortal Venerable.
"Immortal Venerable Immortal Venerable——"
Little Snow Lotus happily called out to the White-Robed Immortal Venerable. She stood behind him, shaking his clothes, and said softly, "Look back quickly. The little Snow Lotus you loved has grown up. I..."
I like you so much, and I want to repay your love for me for thousands of years. Can I follow you?
The full moon is red and the moonlight is dim.
Following Xiao Xuelian's joyful confession, the Immortal in White slowly turned his head, his dark pupils turning into scarlet gold. Half of his face was stained with blood, and his expression was eerie. He grabbed her neck with his backhand.
The person in his arms suddenly trembled.
Xie Qingxun lowered his head and saw Qu Yaoyao suffocating in his arms, her body trembling as if she had had a nightmare.
Adjusting his arms, he let the person buried deep in his arms reveal her little face. After crying for so long, Qu Yaoyao's cheeks were wet and her hair was sweaty. Even after falling asleep, tears were still hanging in the corners of her eyes, and her little mouth was slightly open, looking a little uneasy.
As Xie Qingxun adjusted his posture, Qu Yaoyao began to breathe more peacefully. The suffocation she felt in her dream subsided, and the beautiful dream dissipated into a scene that had happened in reality. She fell from a high altitude and was caught by Xie Qingxun. He shook his legs and asked, "What is your name, sir?"
The man in red took off his mask and succinctly said a name: "Xie Qingxun."
"Liar." Qu Yaoyao was not fooled this time. She grabbed a handful of snow and angrily threw it at the man in front of her. He had clearly concealed his appearance, but he still said that he did not lie to her.
Outside the dream, Qu Yaoyao actually uttered the word "liar" aloud, and Xie Qingxun heard it clearly. It was easy to imagine what she was dreaming about. Xie Qingxun heard Qu Yaoyao sobbing in grievance again and unconsciously scratched his hair.
"Master, we have arrived at Xingyang Sect." Di Shu reminded as they passed by Xingyang Sect.
Xie Qingxun did not slow down and directly brought the person into the delusion.
Seeing Di Shu glance at him suspiciously, he said coldly, "Sending her back to Xingyang Sect now, do you think she'll be obedient and won't run away?"
The Yaowang Sect even dared to snatch people in front of him. Letting Qu Yaoyao go back would only make her die faster.
"Then..." Di Shu was still unsure of Xie Qingxun's meaning.
Having personally witnessed his master carrying someone all the way, Di Shu didn't dare to mention the matter of the underground palace. "How should I, your disciple, arrange for Miss Qu?"
Yes, how to place it.
Xie Qingxun frowned. What was giving him the most headache now was how to deal with the relationship between Yaowang Sect and Qu Yaoyao. Yaowang Sect was determined to kill her. If she didn't die, they would definitely find a way to make things worse. If he protected her, he would get into trouble too.
"Lock her up in my bedroom first."
There was a forbidden magic circle in Xie Qingxun's bedroom. No one else could get in, and Qu Yaoyao couldn't get out. By locking her there, he didn't have to bother watching her.
Di Shu was stunned for a moment, then quickly responded, "I'll make the arrangements right away."
Last night's incident could have been a major or minor event. My master's words clearly indicated his intention to protect Qu Yaoyao, and he had also severely injured Hua Tianhai's adopted son. The Medicine King Sect would not let this go. The only one who could currently rival Qingxi Immortal Venerable was Zicang Immortal Venerable of Zhenxu.
Di Shu frowned. If Immortal Zi Cang took action, things would be really troublesome.
Now there is a pile of mess in Wangxu waiting for Xie Qingxun to clean up personally. Di Shu is very clear about how busy his master is. He thought that his master would go directly to Chengyu Hall to deal with important matters, so he considerately reached out to take the person in his arms.
He thought, since his master was so busy, he would send Qu Yaoyao to the bedroom for him.
Xie Qingxun held Qu Yaoyao's hand tightly, and looked at Di Shu coldly. He did not praise his thoughtfulness and consideration, but asked in return: "When did I say I wanted to go to Chengyu Palace?"
Di Shu was stunned for a moment, "But what about the Medicine King Sect..."
"Let them wait."
The forbidden magic arrays in the bedroom opened, and Xie Qingxun turned into a blue light and disappeared. Before going to deal with the troublesome group from the Medicine King Sect, he had something more important to ask Qu Yaoyao first.
