Chapter 57 Immortal Lord 057%
“…”
With half a month left before the Fairy Sword Conference, the Wanmen Immortal Sect had already begun to bustle with activity.
The Fairy Sword Conference is different from the competitions within the sect. It is a competition among the major sects in the entire cultivation world. The first conference was proposed by the founder of the Wanmen Immortal Sect, Wanfa Emperor. Since then, it has become a tradition to be held every sixty years and has been passed down to this day.
Because so many sects participated in the Immortal Sword Conference, the number of participating disciples from each sect was previously limited. This conference happened to be the 150th, and also the first presided over by Master Huang of the Wanmen Immortal Sect. When Xie Qingxun asked the two Immortal Venerables for their opinions, he saw through his thoughts and said with a half-smile, "If you want to make it a big event, go ahead and do it. I'm not so idle as to even care about this matter."
Master Huang really wants to do it on a grand scale.
Seeing that Xie Qingxun and Pei Ziyi had no objections, he waved his hand and changed the previous rules. Therefore, there was no limit on the number of participants in this Immortal Gate Conference. No matter what level of cultivation you have, as long as you want to participate, you can sign up and give it a try.
This is also the model of the first Xianjian Conference.
Because of this, Mo Xuanxiao was qualified to participate in the Immortal Sword Conference, and he diligently practiced swordsmanship and magic every day. He took Qu Yaoyao's words to heart and carefully read the medical book, discovering the secrets hidden within.
This is not only a medical book, it also contains a special cultivation system. Mo Xuanxiao tried to practice it and found that this strange breathing practice method was strangely suitable for him, so he went to the library several times for this purpose.
Unfortunately, as a disciple, his authority was too limited and the books he could borrow were limited.
Coincidentally, he ran into Qu Yaoyao in the library that day. The girl was leaning against a bookshelf, flipping through a book boredly. When she saw him come in, her eyes lit up and she smiled sweetly and said, "You're here."
She seemed to know he would come.
Mo Xuanxiao smiled back, "Come here to find some information."
"What information are you looking for? Do you need my help?"
Mo Xuanxiao was just racking his brains over how to get into the study on the top floor. Seeing how warmly Qu Yaoyao treated him, he paused and said, "There's something I really need Madam's help with."
He wanted to borrow an ancient book about the origin of cultivation from the upper library, but only the headmaster and the two masters could enter the top library at will. Apart from them, anyone who wanted to enter the top floor had to get a pass token, and at this time, Qingxi Immortal Master's pass token was hanging on Qu Yaoyao's waist.
As they followed Qu Yaoyao up to the top floor, Mo Xuanxiao couldn't help but ask, "Why is Madam Yao here?"
Qu Yaoyao was a little annoyed when she talked about this. She said sullenly, "Xie Qingxun said I was too stupid and asked me to come here to learn more."
As she spoke, she looked at Mo Xuanxiao unconvinced, "Do you think I'm stupid?"
"In Xuanxiao's opinion, Madam Yao is extremely intelligent." Mo Xuanxiao smiled and shook his head to appease her. "Master probably just said it casually. Madam, don't take it to heart."
Qu Yaoyao muttered softly, "He only knows how to bully me."
Mo Xuanxiao heard this but didn't respond. In his opinion, Xie Qingxun doted on Qu Yaoyao to the extreme, otherwise he wouldn't have given her the pass token and allowed her to browse the books on the top floor at will.
The books on the top floor weren't ordinary books; they were mostly ancient texts and fragments of ancient history. The origin of cultivation that Mo Xuanxiao was looking for lay within these fragments. Seeing Qu Yaoyao flipping through other books with her back to him, he pursed his lips, pulled a scroll from the shelf, and leaned against the window to read it carefully.
Found it.
After flipping through several volumes of ancient history, Mo Xuanxiao finally found what he was looking for. Regarding the origins of cultivation, ancient history categorized them into four main sources: Heaven, Earth, Dragon, and Phoenix.
The so-called heaven refers to the spiritual bodies that are nurtured and given life by heaven and earth, such as plants and animals; while earth refers solely to humans. It is obvious that the cultivation system that Mo Xuanxiao has come into contact with is not the first two. He fixed his eyes on the last two categories and was surprised to find that the cultivation system in the medical book... is exactly the same as the dragon clan's cultivation method!
He is not a dragon, so how can he practice according to the dragon clan's methods?
Mo Xuanxiao was in a trance, thinking carefully about his family background. He remembered that before his father fell ill and passed away, he often held his hand and said to him, "We are the last dragon descendants of the Mo family. Xiao'er, you are the hope of our clan."
At that time, his father had been mad and talking nonsense for many days, so Mo Xuanxiao didn't take it seriously. Now, holding the fragment of paper in his hand, he couldn't help but think of the time before he became a disciple of Qingxi Immortal Venerable. The cold and lonely Immortal Venerable once stood in front of his father's grave late at night and asked him indifferently, "Are you from the Mo family?"
"Mo Xuanxiao, have you ever heard of the dragon clan?"
He was still too young at the time, and was only happy that the Immortal Master Qingxi was willing to accept him as a disciple. Later, he was puzzled as to why his master was so cold to him, but he never paid attention to his casual question.
Mo, a descendant of the dragon clan, was once sent by his master to search for Longshan.
As the mysteries piled up one after another, Mo Xuanxiao felt like he had grasped something. He carefully put the fragments back in their place and turned to look at Qu Yaoyao again.
"Mrs. Yao."
Qu Yaoyao was looking for information about the Phoenix Clan. When she heard Mo Xuanxiao's voice, she quickly turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I've found the information..."
Qu Yaoyao took over his words, "I know you're anxious to go back and practice. I don't need you to accompany me here, so you can go without worry."
Mo Xuanxiao got stuck in his words. What he originally wanted to say was, "What book are you looking for? I can help you find it."
Whatever.
Since Qu Yaoyao said so, Mo Xuanxiao had no reason to stay. As he thanked her and left, Qu Yaoyao waved to him and encouraged him with a smile, "I'll wait for your performance at the Fairy Sword Conference."
She didn't ask any questions, nor was she curious about what information he was looking for. Everything went so smoothly, as if she knew what he was doing and came to help him.
What exactly does this Mrs. Yao want to do?
Facing Qu Yaoyao's clear, smiling eyes, Mo Xuanxiao smiled back and left. Qu Yaoyao breathed a sigh of relief as she watched him leave, muttering to herself, "Does this count as a success?"
"You did a good job." Chong'an's voice came to my ears.
Qu Yaoyao came to the library this time, actually at Chong'an's behest, to help him. She didn't know what information Mo Xuanxiao was looking for or what he was going to do, but she trusted Chong'an unconditionally, and at the same time, she was puzzled, "Why do you want to train Mo Xuanxiao?"
Chong'an said lightly: "I am training you."
"For me?" But isn't Mo Xuanxiao Xie Qingxun's apprentice?
Chong'an didn't explain too much, but simply said calmly: "You just need to know that everything I do is to pave the way for your future."
Knowing what Qu Yaoyao was worried about, in order to get her to continue helping Mo Xuanxiao, he added coldly, "Don't worry, Mo Xuanxiao is a kind person. As Xie Qingxun's apprentice, he won't do anything to harm his master."
Qu Yaoyao had never thought about it that way. She opened her mouth to explain, but finally chose to shut up.
Since she chose Xie Qingxun, there was bound to be a gap between her and Chong'an.
.
Qu Yaoyao came to the library to help Mo Xuanxiao find information, but her complaints about Mo Xuanxiao were all true. Xie Qingxun did say that she was stupid and asked her to come to the library to enrich her knowledge.
When Xie Qingxun came, Qu Yaoyao had already found the book about the Phoenix Clan and was sitting at the table reading it page by page.
As the sun sets, the morning glow dyes a large area of the sky red, and the afterglow of the sun pours into the attic.
Qu Yaoyao read carefully. When she saw the colorful portraits of the Phoenix Clan, she opened her eyes wide and pointed at one of the Phoenixes. "It looks like..."
"Shh——" Chong'an interrupted her hastily.
In the shadow of the desk, an arm supported the desk from behind her. Xie Qingxun leaned over behind Qu Yaoyao, lowered his eyes to look at the portrait she was pointing at, and asked, "What does it look like?"
Qu Yaoyao had no idea when Xie Qingxun came and was startled by his sudden voice.
Her soft lips accidentally touched Xie Qingxun's face, and she quickly leaned back to cover her mouth, "When did you come?"
Xie Qingxun glanced at her with a half-smile, "Since you don't know when I arrived, then who were you talking to just now?"
Qu Yaoyao was naturally talking to Chong'an.
Her round eyes blinked twice, and she reacted and said, "Is it not okay for me to talk to myself?"
Without giving Xie Qingxun a chance to ask further questions, she pointed to the portrait in the book and said, "It looks like Lian Chao."
The ancient phoenix is divided into six tribes, namely the white swan, the red Suzaku, the blue Qingluan, the yellow Xuanwu, and the purple Cuckoo. Above these five tribes is the golden-feathered divine phoenix with a body of red gold.
The portrait that Qu Yaoyao pointed to was entirely made of red gold and was extremely large. Although the portrait could not depict the stunning beauty of the Phoenix Clan, it was no different from Chong'an's original form that she had seen. Now that she thought about it carefully, it was exactly the same as Lian Chao.
"Is it called the Golden-Feathered Divine Phoenix?"
Qu Yaoyao was reading the introduction about the Golden-Winged Divine Phoenix. Unlike the other five types of phoenixes, the Golden Jade Phoenix only had a brief one-sentence introduction: an immortal bird, a thought can turn you into a god, a thought can turn you into a demon.
Qu Yaoyao continued to turn the pages. Logically, the next page should be a detailed introduction to the Golden-Winged Divine Phoenix. However, after she turned it over, she found that the introduction to the Golden-Winged Divine Phoenix had been torn up.
"Okay." Xie Qingxun held Qu Yaoyao's hand and said, "It's getting dark, come back with me."
Qu Yaoyao felt a little unsatisfied. She found the ancient history fragments on the top floor even more interesting than the books she had read in the lower world. She hugged the ancient book in her arms and asked softly, "Can I take it back and read it slowly?"
It's not allowed in theory, but Xie Qingxun is one of the two masters and no one can control him. Seeing that Qu Yaoyao really likes it, he said casually: "It's up to you."
At first, he thought, it's just a crappy book. If Qu Yaoyao likes it, then she can read more. That way, she won't have to bother him every day. Until they returned to the palace, Xie Qingxun meditated while she read, and when Xie Qingxun went out, she read. When he came back from dealing with trivial matters, Qu Yaoyao was still lying on the table reading, and she didn't even raise her head when she heard him come back.
"Qu Yaoyao." Xie Qingxun's tone turned cold.
He walked to the screen and took off his outer robe. "I heard that Mo Xuanxiao went to the top floor with you today?"
Qu Yaoyao's heart skipped a beat. Feeling guilty, she didn't dare to look up. She said confidently, "You don't need to hear it. He did go up to the top floor with me. He said he wanted to look up some information."
"What kind of information can he find?" Xie Qingxun deliberately raised his voice as he put on his clothes.
Qu Yaoyao still didn't look up, and said perfunctorily: "I don't know either. If you want to know, go ask him."
Xie Qingxun's breathing stagnated and he tilted his head to look at her.
In the past, Qu Yaoyao loved watching him undress, wishing he'd strip completely naked so she could study his body. For this reason, Xie Qingxun rarely changed in front of her. But today, he stood in front of the screen and tossed around for a long time. Qu Yaoyao was so engrossed in her book that she didn't even glance at him. She probably wouldn't have noticed even if he'd stripped completely.
Xie Qingxun could only say: "I'm going to take a bath, you are not allowed to follow me."
Qu Yaoyao turned the page of the book in her hand and ignored him this time.
That’s great.
Xie Qingxun stayed in the bathroom for nearly half an hour. When he came out, he found Qu Yaoyao no longer at the table. His cold expression improved a little, and when he entered the inner room, he found Qu Yaoyao sitting on the jade bed reading a book.
Hearing that he was back, she finally looked up at him, smiling and saying, "This ancient history book is really interesting. Is everything written in it true?"
Xie Qingxun's hair was wet and draped behind him. His thin inner garment was tightly fitting, revealing his perfect waistline. He raised his chin indifferently, "For example?"
"The book says that in ancient times, the heaven and earth gave birth to all things, and the dragon and the phoenix ruled each side. The dragon clan had a group of mythical beasts and generals such as the Viper Jiao and Zhu Jiuyin, while the phoenix clan had a group of mythical birds such as Kunpeng, Guicha, and Bifang. I have never heard of many of these mythical creatures."
Xie Qingxun didn't say anything.
Qu Yaoyao added, "It also says that the Ghost Chariot is a bird with nine heads, and Bifang has only one leg."
Xie Qingxun still didn't say anything.
Qu Yaoyao flipped through a few pages, and finally returned to the page with the picture of the Phoenix Clan. She carefully compared it with the one with the picture of the Dragon Clan. "The dragon is pretty, and the phoenix is beautiful too. If I really had to choose..."
"I still prefer Phoenix."
"Xie Qingxun, which ancient creature do you think is the most beautiful? The dragon or the phoenix?"
A white, slender hand suddenly appeared and snatched the book from her hand.
Xie Qingxun walked in front of her at some point. He threw the ancient book to the ground and leaned over to pinch her chin. Tiny drops of water slid down her forehead.
"I don't know which is more beautiful, the phoenix or the dragon. I only know—"
"The Phoenix likes to eat people."
Facing Qu Yaoyao's frightened eyes, Xie Qingxun moved closer and closer to her face, whispering in her ear, "Especially little girls who like to eat... and talk too much."
Feeling the dangerous aura of Xie Qingxun, Qu Yaoyao shrank her head back a little bit. Perhaps she realized that Xie Qingxun was annoyed with her, so she mumbled softly, "Then I won't say anything..."
"Can I stop talking?" She reached out to grab Xie Qingxun's collar.
Xie Qingxun held her hands in return and sneered, "It's too late."
As soon as he finished speaking, he leaned in and pecked Qu Yaoyao's lips, then took them in his mouth and gently bit them. Originally, Xie Qingxun just wanted to tease her, but Qu Yaoyao's nervous and confused expression was so adorable that he couldn't help but start sucking deeper. When he let her go, Qu Yaoyao's ears were red, a rare sight.
Trying to calm her breathing, her eyelashes fluttered as she looked at the person hugging her, and her attention shifted away from the book. Only then did she realize that Xie Qingxun, after taking a bath, was as beautiful and charming as a blooming flower, much more beautiful than the content in the book.
Hooking her arms around Xie Qingxun's neck, she panted slightly and asked, "Which one do you want to eat?"
"Hmm?" Xie Qingxun didn't react, and his lips rubbed the corner of her eye again.
Qu Yaoyao asked, "Didn't you say that phoenixes eat people?"
"The book says cannibalism has two meanings. One is literally eating people, and the other is..." She carefully recalled the contents of the book and stammered, "It seems to be the kind of eating you just did."
She said it so generously that Xie Qingxun was stunned for a moment, "Which book did you read that from?"
"'The Domineering Immortal Fell in Love with Me'."
It's this book again.
Xie Qingxun said: "You are not allowed to watch it anymore."
Qu Yaoyao was reluctant. Due to her posture, she could only see Xie Qingxun's chest without looking up. Now she saw his shirt slightly open, revealing his beautiful collarbone, and she couldn't help but lick her lips.
"Xie Qingxun."
"What happened again?"
Qu Yaoyao reached out and poked his collarbone, "I'm hungry."
Just as Xie Qingxun was about to stand up, the girl beneath him hugged his arms, hung on him, and looked at him with wide eyes, "Can I eat you?"
Phoenix likes to eat little girls who talk too much, while Xiao Xuelian likes to eat clean and good-looking immortal masters.
