Chapter 3 Immortal Lord 003%
Qu Yaoyao didn't want to look up.
As a simple and harmless little snow lotus, although she didn't understand anything, she could still sense the danger from the people in front of her.
The invisible power exuded by the Immortal Lord was like a knife on her neck. Qu Yaoyao was very scared now. She was so scared that she clutched her sleeves tightly and didn't know what to do. How could she dare to look up at him?
In the end, she suffered a loss due to lack of understanding. How could Qu Yaoyao know that Qingxi Immortal Venerable always kept his word. If she refused to look up, others would naturally have plenty of ways to make her look up.
A cool hand appeared in front of her eyes, and before Qu Yaoyao could see clearly, the hand accurately placed on her chin.
A slight pain came, and Qu Yaoyao's eyes were panicked. By the time she reacted, her chin had been forced up, and her sight met a pair of black eyes without warning.
"Didn't you hear what I said?" Immortal Qingxi leaned over.
At this time, one of them was standing and the other was sitting. The movement of Qingxi Immortal Venerable leaning over shortened the distance between them, so close that Qu Yaoyao was forced to see his face clearly.
What a poor little girl, because of fear, the corners of her eyes turned red, and her round pupils seemed to have been washed in clear water, trembling and bright, like a deer that had strayed into a hunter's trap.
It's really strange that Qu Yaoyao is actually afraid of him.
Qingxi stared at her. After seeing her expression clearly, he held her chin tightly and asked in a leisurely tone, "What are you afraid of?"
Qu Yaoyao felt that she was not only afraid at this moment, but also had some other emotions.
As expected, the face in front of her was exactly the same as the fallen immortal she saw in the dense forest barrier. However, as she stared at the Qingxi Immortal Venerable stupidly, Qu Yaoyao felt that this person's temperament was very similar to that of the Immortal Venerable who always liked to go to the Cold Pond to accompany her.
Are they the same person?!
Before Qu Yaoyao could sort out her emotions, Immortal Qingxi suddenly put his hand on her forehead.
"Close your eyes."
A faint blue light spread from his palm and slowly penetrated into Qu Yaoyao's forehead. She closed her eyes uncontrollably, feeling as if her soul was washed by clear water. Her whole body became numb and extremely comfortable.
After a while, the dim light gradually faded. Qu Yaoyao opened her eyes blankly and heard Qingxi ask, "Are you calm now?"
The panic and tension just now seemed to disappear, and Qu Yaoyao's mood gradually returned to normal. She blinked a few times and nodded slightly.
Qingxi withdrew his hand and retreated. He saw Qu Yaoyao still holding the hem of his clothes at the waist, and swept it away without a trace. The strong pressure just now seemed to be an illusion. The person in front of him was noble and elegant, and unattainable.
"I don't know when I made Miss Qu so afraid." Qingxi Immortal Venerable sat down opposite her.
He stroked his sleeves casually and uttered a word in a calm voice: "Hand."
Qu Yaoyao didn't think twice and quickly raised both hands and held them in front of him, being extremely obedient.
Immortal Qingxi lowered his eyelashes and ruthlessly brushed one away. He pinched the other wrist, turned it over, and used his fingers to feel her pulse.
There was the sound of wind and falling snow all around.
The pavilion fell into a brief silence, and only the faint sound of breathing could be heard, which belonged to Qu Yaoyao.
After Qu Yaoyao calmed down, she felt her blocked mind become clearer and her thinking ability returned to normal. She looked at the Immortal Venerable across from her cautiously, forming a rough conclusion in her mind: the fallen immortal that night and the Immortal Venerable before her were not the same person.
Although they had the same appearance, the Immortal Lord in front of him was as cold as snow, with a calm and indifferent demeanor. He did not have the ghostly evil spirit of the fallen immortal, nor did he have the strange red-gold eyes.
Seriously speaking, the fallen immortal that night looked more beautiful, like a flower dipped in blood, dangerous and tempting to sink. But the Immortal Lord at this moment gave people a cleaner feeling. Staring at his handsome and delicate face, people dared not have the slightest blasphemy.
Besides, Gu Tianci said that Qingxi Immortal Venerable had just come out of seclusion after several months, so how could he have had the opportunity to kill and commit evil? Most importantly, how could an Immortal Venerable who had fallen into demonic murder dare to stay in the Immortal Sect?
Yes, they are not the same person!
Her immortal has protected her for a hundred years and loved her so much, how could he be willing to kill her?
After thinking clearly about these things, Qu Yaoyao felt relieved. So when Qingxi Immortal Venerable raised his eyes to look at her, she smiled sweetly and softly at him, and called him with great joy, "Immortal Venerable."
This is the immortal she admires!
Immortal Qingxi didn't know why she suddenly wasn't afraid of him anymore. After examining her, he pulled his hand back.
"It's nothing serious, just rest for a few days." After wiping his hands with a handkerchief, Qingxi Immortal Venerable made his conclusion.
It's also strange that people whose life lamps are extinguished will have nothing wrong with them after resurrection except amnesia.
Qingxi Immortal Venerable said: "I have been in seclusion for many months. It was only after I came out that I learned that something happened to Miss Qu. Please don't be offended."
Hearing his explanation in person, Qu Yaoyao felt more at ease. How could she blame him? After all, it was her first time as a human, so she didn't have any complicated thoughts. At most, she asked again, "Can I come out freely during the Immortal Venerable's retreat?"
It was a very silly question, causing Qingxi Immortal Venerable to narrow his eyes. He then curved his lips and looked at Qu Yaoyao and asked, "Why do you ask that?"
Without waiting for Qu Yaoyao to explain, he patiently explained, "After I enter seclusion, a barrier formation will automatically open outside my cave. If I force myself to leave before the time is up, it will damage my cultivation."
Qingxi didn't deny that they couldn't come out. Instead, what he said made people feel more secure.
It was already late, and Immortal Qingxi still had important matters to attend to.
Before letting her go, he casually asked, "The night the evil spirit invaded, did you see clearly what the demon that hurt you looked like, Miss Qu?"
Qu Yaoyao tilted her head and tried to recall the past very seriously.
She was not taking over another body. The real Qu Yaoyao was already dead when she entered this body, so her memories and emotions from her previous life were also erased, making it impossible for Xiao Xuelian to get a glimpse of them.
Shaking her head helplessly, Qu Yaoyao could only continue to pretend to have lost her memory, "I don't remember."
"Really?" Immortal Qingxi supported his chin with one hand and knocked on the stone table with the other hand.
He just stared at Qu Yaoyao, his slightly upturned eyes deep and indifferent, focused and serious. Being stared at like this by the person she loved, Qu Yaoyao felt a little uncomfortable and could only lower her head and whispered to confirm, "I really don't remember anything."
Yunzhi had asked her this before, and Qu Yushu had also asked her more than once, but she really didn't know who strangled Qu Yaoyao to death.
As she was adjusting her belt with her head down, a shadow suddenly fell in front of her.
When she looked up again, the Immortal Venerable Qingxi, who had just been sitting beside her, had already come to her. She looked at the hand that the Immortal Venerable extended to her, and she was completely defenseless and did not move. She only called out in confusion, "Immortal Venerable?"
Qingxi didn't respond, but lifted Qu Yaoyao's cloak with one finger.
Beneath the thick cloak was a floral dress inlaid with pearls and gems, and strings of jewels were wrapped around Qu Yaoyao's collar. When Qingxi Immortal Venerable saw this, he paused, and then a blue light emerged from his fingertips, and the buttons on Qu Yaoyao's collar instantly opened.
Snap——
The beads hanging in the air made a tinkling sound, and the girl's neckline was wide open, revealing a small piece of delicate and smooth skin.
As a small snow lotus, Qu Yaoyao had no idea what Qingxi Immortal Venerable meant by this action, so when Qingxi touched the purple pinch marks on her neck with his fingertips, although Qu Yaoyao felt a little uncomfortable, she just opened her pair of confused and innocent round eyes, looked at Qingxi Immortal Venerable, and let him touch her neck.
Qu Yaoyao could smell the crisp scent of snow on him at such a close distance, just like the breath of the cold pond that gave birth to her.
Qu Yaoyao missed Hantan a little.
Before she could take a few more breaths of Qingxi's breath, she hissed and said weakly, "It hurts..."
When Qingxi looked at her, Qu Yaoyao explained in a low voice: "Your Excellency, you hurt me."
The wound on her neck would hurt if touched lightly. This sentence did not have any intention of hinting, it just meant what it said.
Immortal Qingxi's eyes were dark, he stared at her for a moment and then withdrew his hand.
Casually gathering up his disheveled collar, Qingxi Immortal Venerable's expression remained calm and emotionless. He briefly explained his actions, "The wound on Miss Qu's neck contains demonic energy. It must have been caused by the demons."
No wonder the scars lasted for a long time.
Qu Yaoyao suddenly realized what was going on, but she didn't reach out to fasten her collar. She even twisted off her coat when she lowered her head to check.
She didn't know much about the shyness and reserve that a young girl should know. Just as she was about to ask more questions, Qingxi Immortal Venerable called out "Tianci," "Send Miss Qu out."
After getting the answer he wanted and doing what he was supposed to do, Qingxi Immortal Venerable no longer had the interest to spend any more time with Qu Yaoyao. However, as he was about to leave, he noticed that Qu Yaoyao hadn't even bothered to button her shirt yet.
Glancing at Gu Tianci who was approaching, Qingxi Immortal Venerable's eyes darkened. When passing by Qu Yaoyao, he bent down to pick up her dropped cloak.
"Put on your clothes." The cold voice was emotionless.
Qu Yaoyao's eyes went dark and the cloak covered her head.
By the time she pulled back her cloak and revealed her head, Immortal Qingxi had already disappeared. She hurriedly tugged at her clothes with both hands, muttering, "I don't know how to wear this."
It took Yunzhi a long time to help her put on such complicated and cumbersome clothes.
“…”
Under Gu Tianci's complicated gaze, Qu Yaoyao came out holding the collar of her cloak with her hands.
One can imagine how surprised Yunzhi and Qu Yushu, who were waiting outside the country, would be after seeing this. Yunzhi even thought, "Is the girl going to offer herself to him again?"
The use of the word '又' is very interesting.
Qu Yaoyao spoke frankly: "The Immortal Master solved it himself."
Yunzhi was stunned for a moment, then a blush flew up her cheeks. She winked at Yaoyao and said, "I roughly understand."
"What do you understand?" Qu Yaoyao didn't understand.
Yunzhi just smiled and said, "Although the young lady is engaged to the Immortal Lord, some things should not be taken too far. You should be careful about the degree."
Qu Yushu listened to the entire conversation between the two, his face slightly lowered, and it was unknown what he was thinking. After a moment, he got on the sedan chair first and called out from above, "Yaoyao, it's time to go back."
The sedan chair was too high. Qu Yaoyao was about to ask Yunzhi to help her up when a hand appeared in front of her. Qu Yushu said softly, "Brother, help you."
.
Returning to Wangxu, Gu Tianci frowned and looked a little angry.
Walking straight along the corridor, he saw the figure of Qingxi Immortal Venerable in front of him and stepped forward to report, "Disciple has already sent the person out."
Qingxi Immortal Venerable responded calmly, then, noticing the anger on his eldest disciple's face, he casually asked, "What's wrong?"
Gu Tianci endured it again and again, but still couldn't help but said: "Miss Qu is ruining your reputation again!"
The Immortal Venerable Qingxi is named Xie Qingxun, a name bestowed upon him by the founder of the Wanmen Immortal Sect, the Saint Venerable Wanfa.
Gu Tianci had been following Xie Qingxun since before his master retired from the world. He knew very well how cold and indifferent his master was, and naturally he could see that his master disliked Qu Yaoyao.
He told Xie Qingxun how Qu Yaoyao came out of Wangxu in a disheveled state and what she said to Yunzhi. He was usually a man of few words, but it was rare for him to say so many words in one breath.
"Just now, just now she actually..." Gu Tianci was unable to say the rest of the words.
Because when Qu Yaoyao left Wangxu, she asked him innocently if he could button his clothes, as if asking him to help her.
Not sure whether he was angry or ashamed, Gu Tianci gritted his teeth and completed the rest of the sentence, "Qu Yaoyao actually wanted to seduce my disciple!"
Xie Qingxun stopped suddenly.
"Master?" Gu Tianci hurriedly stopped, thinking that Qu Yaoyao's behavior had angered his master.
When he looked up, he found that his master was tilting his head to stare at the terrace where the Delusion Ruins and the True Ruins merged, where there was a cold pond.
After a brief pause, Xie Qingxun strode towards the cold pond. He rarely showed any emotion, and this was the first time Gu Tianci had seen him walk so hastily. He hurried to catch up, puzzled, "But what's wrong?"
A hint of chill lingered around them. Xie Qingxun's profile was cold, and his long eyelashes drooped, hiding his expression.
Staring intently at the empty corner of the cold pond, he said coldly, "Who moved the snow lotus in the cold pond?"
In the cold pond, there was one most beautiful and precious thousand-year-old snow lotus missing, a little snow lotus that belonged to him alone.
The author has something to say: Xie Qingxun: Where is my wife? Who stole my soft and lovely wife?!
Xiao Xuelian: Are you polite?
