Chapter 158



382

The area in front of the Zhengyang Hall of Shenxu Palace was in a mess, the Demon-Slaying Formation was destroyed, and the entire Shenhua Peak was torn into pieces. However, the monks of Shenxu Palace were in no mood to repair Shenhua Peak at this time, and of course, they were in no mood to care about the Demon-Slaying Formation.

They knew the sky was falling.

A misty world appeared above the Zhengyang Palace. That was the companion space of the Demon Slaughtering Formation. The portal of the companion space was wide open, but no monks went in to pick up the spiritual treasures inside. The monks gathered at the entrance of the passage. At this time, they caught Yun Zheng coming out of the middle of the passage and asked: "General Yun Zheng, how are the demon gods?"

Yun Zheng sighed heavily: "Not very good."

Yun Zheng looked down at the broken demon-slaying formation. Previously, he was excited about the fact that he and Chonghua Laodao had joined forces to destroy the demon-slaying formation, but at this moment, he felt extremely disappointed. Yun Zheng whispered, "The saint is gone, and they don't want to live anymore."

The Demon Slaughter Formation was destroyed three days ago, and the monks present still remember what happened that day. That day, the Demon Slaughter Formation suddenly activated, and the majestic demonic energy attacked the monks outside the Demon Slaughter Formation. The younger generation of Shenxu Palace had never seen the Demon Slaughter Formation activated, and they were almost scared silly when they saw this scene.

On that day, the elders of all the major sects gathered in front of the Zhengyang Palace. Just when they were at a loss as to what to do, a bloody thunder bell fell from the Demon Slaughter Formation. Then a blood-soaked voice resounded throughout the Shenxu Palace: The Demon Slaughter Formation has been destroyed, help!

Wu Buping immediately recognized the owner of the voice. It was the voice of Du Heng from the dining hall! His intuition told him to listen to Du Heng. However, they were willing but unable to do so. It would take a high level of cultivation to destroy the demon-killing formation, and there was no out-of-body cultivator among the group of people outside.

At this time, five spiritual lights flew in from outside the Shenxu Palace. When they fell to the ground, they turned into five demon cultivators emitting powerful demonic power. Without waiting for Wu Buping and the others to ask, the demon cultivators all bowed and announced their names. They were the generals Yun Zheng and Chong Hua under the command of the Phoenix Lord, the general Hun Dun under the command of the Fox God, and Zhou Lianhua and Zhou Xiyue under the command of the Dragon Lord.

Fortunately, the three great demon gods in the demon world have extremely high prestige among human cultivators, and the cultivators of the Shenxu Palace do not have conspiracy theories, so Yun Zheng and Chonghua were able to join forces to break the demon-slaying formation.

After the demon-killing formation was broken, the monks from the three major sects who survived the catastrophe finally came out. However, they were not ecstatic. From their mouths, everyone learned a sad news - the person who spread the news was the reincarnation of the saint Qingheng, and he was gone.

Du Heng died, and the three demon gods locked themselves in the cave of the Wanzong Ruins. They drove all the cultivators out of the Demon Slaughter Formation. After the Demon Slaughter Formation was destroyed, the companion space would gradually collapse. The living creatures in the formation ran out of the ruins like crazy, while the three people with the highest cultivation in the cultivation world seemed to have given up struggling. They didn't want to come out. They were just waiting for the Demon Slaughter Formation to be destroyed and take the three of them away.

Xiaoxiao's face was full of tears. He flapped his wings and tried to get into the Wanzong ruins. However, before he could reach the cave entrance, Yun Zheng stopped him. Xiaoxiao pecked at Yun Zheng's hand and cried.

Yun Zheng felt uncomfortable, and he hugged Xiaoxiao firmly: "Little Feng Jun, Feng Jun told you that you need to rest well after repairing your spiritual roots."

Xiaoxiao cried even harder when he heard this. He opened his mouth wide and started to cry. Big tears flowed down his cheeks. In the midst of his crying, everyone heard his voice: "I don't want to be separated from my uncle and the others. I want my uncle and Du Heng. Woo woo woo, I don't want to transform anymore. I just want to be with everyone. Together in life and in death."

Hearing Xiaoxiao's cry, the monks' eyes were red. Wen Qiong came up and took Xiaoxiao: "Xiao Fengjun, I understand your feelings."

Xiaoxiao cried and burrowed into Wen Qiong's arms: "How could they do this? How could they repair my spiritual roots while I was asleep? How could they throw Xiao Yuma and me out here without consulting me at all. Wuuuuuu, Qiong Qiong, they don't want me anymore... wuuuuuu..."

Wen Qiong felt bitter in her heart. She turned her head and looked at the ruins that were collapsing: "It's not that they don't want you anymore, they are just tired and want to take a break."

At this time, there were no more small caves in the Wanzong ruins. The area around the ruins was constantly collapsing, and the large forests around the station had disappeared. Large tracts of land were blown away by the strong wind, and the sky in the ruins was dark and the sand and rocks were flying. The strong wind blew towards the former station, and a small bean-sized light was still on in the outermost room of the station.

Jing Nan lay on the bed with a pale face. He opened his eyes slightly: "What time is it..." Feng Gui patted Jing Nan gently: "I don't know, I guess we will be able to see him in another hour."

Jing Nan coughed muffledly. When he woke up, he heard the sad news that Du Heng had fallen again. Disheartened, he repaired Xiao Xiao's spiritual veins regardless of his body needing to recuperate, and then asked Yun Zheng and Chonghua to take the two children out.

Jing Nan was drowsy: "Where's Xiaoyu..."

Feng Gui looked up at Xiaoyu who was cooking wontons beside the stove. In the boiling water, the wontons floated on the surface like little goldfish. Xuan Yu skillfully added chicken soup to the big bowl, and the delicious smell spread. If it weren't for the pieces of land outside flying upwards with the strong wind, this would be a very daily and warm scene.

Xuan Yu's eyes were filled with dead silence. He placed the large bowl on a tray and brought it to Jing Nan, Feng Gui and the others: "Eat. When you're full, we can go on the road together."

Feng Gui picked up a bowl of wontons, scooped a wonton and passed it to Jing Nan's lips: "I'll leave the Feather Tribe to Hong'er, and I can't take care of the rest." Jing Nan chewed the wonton: "I don't have the patience to take care of the beast tribe's mess, whoever wants to be the demon god can do it. The wontons are delicious, give me some more."

Xuan Yu sat silently beside them, eating wontons. Even at this time, his movements were still elegant. After Feng Gui and Jing Nan said a few words, the stone room was so quiet that only the sound of everyone eating wontons could be heard.

After eating half of it, Xuan Yu put down the bowl with regret: "It doesn't taste like what he made."

Jing Nan smiled slightly: "It's okay, when we see him later, we will pester him to make delicious food for us all the time in the future."

Wonton put his head on the bed with a wheezing sound. Feng Gui glanced at Wonton and said, "It's time to put it away." Xuan Yu lowered his eyes and touched Wonton's big head, "He will be unhappy if he can't see Wonton."

The light and shadow outside the cave became more and more mottled. When the ruins collapsed, even the light would be distorted. At this time, the light emitted by the night pearls above their heads became distorted, and the orange-yellow light fled outside the station.

Jing Nan swallowed the wonton in his mouth. He looked at Ye Mingzhu with amusement: "Hey, look, even Guang knows to run for his life." Feng Gui lowered his head and kissed his forehead: "Yes, there are only three of us fools, waiting to die here."

Jing Nan sighed, "In fact, we have been living in secret for ten thousand years. Ten thousand years ago, we should have followed him. Ten thousand years of wandering around, in the end, we only got a flash in the pan. If we had known that he would eventually die for us, why would we have made him run all this way?"

Xuan Yu turned his head expressionlessly and looked at Jing Nan. His lips moved and he finally lowered his head. Ten thousand years of deduction and calculation, in the end, only exchanged for a year of living together with Du Heng. Was it worth it?

Xuan Yu felt it was worth it. When he thought of Du Heng, his heart was full. But he had to admit that Nan Nan was right. If it weren't for their plan, Du Heng would be a happy and simple little cook in another world, and would not end up with his soul torn apart.

Feng Gui put down the wonton in his hand and shook his body: "I want to transform into my original form, so that when I see Qing Heng, he will recognize me at a glance." As he spoke, a chicken that looked similar to Xiao Xiao appeared on the stone bed. Feng Gui showed off his rich fur: "Look, do I look like a child?"

Jing Nan laughed out loud: "Stop kidding, you didn't have so much hair when you were a child." Jing Nan also turned into a skinny fox: "It's only real if you're like me."

Xuan Yu didn't say anything, but a smile appeared on his lips: "He will definitely recognize us at first sight." As he spoke, a turquoise dragon appeared on the stone bed, coiling around the chicken and the fox. He put his head between Jing Nan and Feng Gui: "Take a nap, and everything will be over when you fall asleep."

The night-light in the stone chamber was getting darker and darker, and the wind outside was getting louder and louder. Suddenly, Jing Nan whispered, "I heard Qing Heng's voice. He was calling me Nan Nan."

Feng Gui smiled and said, "I haven't heard it yet. If I try harder, I can..."

A crying voice came from outside the stone room: "Nannan! Xixi! Xiaoyu! Open the door!!"

The three demons raised their heads and looked at each other. Feng Gui stretched out his claws to scratch Jing Nan's ears: "Nan Nan, your ears are very useful, listen to it?"

She was still crying outside the stone chamber: "Xiaoyu! Xiaoyu, open the door quickly, it's me! Du Heng!"

Xuan Yu frowned and said, "I heard that when the world is destroyed, there will be a beast called Nightmare Beast. Nightmare Beast feeds on people's fear. They trick people into leaving..."

There were footsteps coming from outside the stone chamber. The stone chamber where Xuan Yu and the others were was very close to the cave entrance. In a flash, the footsteps reached the door. In the dim light of the Night Pearl, Du Heng flashed in. His eyes were swollen from crying and his voice was hoarse: "Xiaoyu? Nannan? Xixi?"

Jing Nan was very excited: "Hurry, hurry, Qingheng is here to pick us up! They say the strong wind is powerful. I saw Qingheng before I even felt the cave collapse!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jing Nan and the other three were already in Du Heng's arms. They had grown from three small ones to three big ones, and Du Heng opened his arms to embrace all three of his beloved ones.

Du Heng burst into tears: "I'm back, I'm back. I'm sorry, I made you suffer. It's my fault."

Hot tears fell into his arms. Xuan Yu rubbed Du Heng's face in disbelief: "Qing Heng?"

Du Heng nodded repeatedly. He cried so hard that he couldn't speak. "How could you be so stupid... How could you be so stupid... I'm sorry, I couldn't protect you..."

Du Heng caressed the three in his arms with heartache. He choked up and said, "They are all bald... wuwuwu... It must be so painful, right?"

Jing Nan and the others opened their mouths wide, tears streaming down their cheeks before they could say anything: "Qing Heng! It's Qing Heng!"

A flash of light flashed in the stone chamber, and Xuan Yu fell to the ground and turned into a human form: "I'm sorry, I don't want to die anymore."

After saying this, Xiaoyu took away everything that could be taken away, including the refrigerator and oven in the stone room, like the wind. Wonton followed him, his tail wagging like the wind.

Jing Nan and Feng Gui looked at each other, and Jing Nan gritted his teeth and said, "Xi Xi, carry me on your back. I don't want to die either."

Feng Gui wiped the tears from his face, he changed into a human form and picked up Jing Nan: "Let's go!"

When Xiaoxiao saw the ruins collapse, he screamed and fainted. It was because he fainted that he didn't see the four people and one dog flying out of the ruins at the last moment.

When Xiaoxiao woke up slowly, he twitched his nose and big tears rolled down his face: "Uncle is gone... Nannan is gone... Longjun is gone... Du Hengheng is gone... Wuuwuwu, what's the point of me living? Wuuwuwu, why did you leave me alone?"

A warm hand fell on Xiaoxiao's furry belly, and a smiling voice came: "Come to think of it, Xiaoxiao's crying is much more reserved than Xixi's when she was a child. When Xixi was a child, you had a loud voice. You could be heard three miles away."

Xiaoxiao's tears stopped immediately. He blew a bubble and looked back at the bed in surprise. When he saw the people around him, his eyes lit up. Isn't this Du Heng and his uncle? !

Jing Nan was lying next to Xiao Xiao, with her uncle standing beside the bed and Du Heng sitting. Xiao Xiao looked at Du Heng in disbelief, and Du Heng rubbed Xiao Xiao's belly with a smile: "This is the first time I heard Xiao Xiao's voice. It turns out that our Xiao Xiao speaks so cutely."

Xiaoxiao flapped her wings and burrowed into Du Heng's arms: "Wuwuwu, Du Hengheng, uncle - did I cry to death? Otherwise how could I see you all, wuwuwu, thank Daozu for not leaving me alone."

Du Heng rubbed Xiaoxiao's forehead and said to Jing Nan: "I never knew Xiaoxiao was like this before."

Jing Nan smiled and said, "That's probably because you've never understood what he said, right?"

Xiaoxiao stretched his head out of Du Heng's arms and looked around. This... isn't this a dining hall? ! He sat on Du Heng's lap in a trance and looked into Du Heng's eyes. He didn't know if he was having an illusion, but he always felt that Du Heng seemed different.

What was different? Xiaoxiao stretched out his claws and scratched his chin. He stared at Du Heng's chin, and the more he looked, the more he felt something was different.

First of all, Du Heng's appearance has changed! Du Heng has become more handsome. Of course, Du Heng was also very handsome before, but now Du Heng is more... fairy-like? Look at that chin and that side profile, he is almost catching up with his uncle!

What else was different? Xiaoxiao tilted his head and thought about it, and then he really discovered a clue - Du Heng's aura had changed.

Du Heng's breath used to smell warm and sweet, but now that sweet smell has faded, and there's an indescribable flavor.

Xiaoxiao was a little phoenix who had seen a lot of things. He had smelled at least eight hundred incense sticks, but none of them smelled like Du Heng's. This smell was a little cold, but it made Xiaoxiao feel at ease, just like... the smell of the Dragon King.

Feng Gui frowned and said, "Feng Lin, you should be able to transform now that your spiritual roots have been repaired. Why are you still in this state? How can this be so embarrassing?"

Hearing the familiar curse from the uncle, Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up even brighter - the uncle changed his curse words! But the substance remained the same, he was still the familiar uncle!

Du Heng looked at Xiao Xiao with some concern: "Oh no, is the child stupid?"

Feng Gui snorted: "He is stupid? There are no smart people in the world."

Xiaoxiao looked around and scratched his head suspiciously: "Chirp?"

Feng Gui took out a melon seed from his sleeve and threw it at Xiao Xiao's head: "Speak human language! You must learn to speak human language in the future! Don't always speak in dialect so capriciously."

Xiaoxiao organized her words: "So... I'm not dead?"

Xiaoxiao's voice was crisp and made people feel comfortable. Du Heng smiled and hugged Xiaoxiao: "Of course you are not dead, and neither are we. Look, I am alive now, am I not?"

Xiaoxiao burst into tears again, his tears and snot hanging on Du Heng: "I thought you were dead, wuwuwu... Don't scare me like this in the future. If you scare Xiaoxiao to death, you won't have any more cute little ones."

Du Heng chuckled: "Okay, okay, I won't scare you. Little Feather is waiting for you at the door, go quickly."

Du Heng patted Xiao Xiao's buttocks, and Xiao Xiao jumped off Du Heng and landed on the ground. He felt like he was dreaming: "Du Heng, are you really not dead?"

Du Heng patted his chest and swore: "Look, I am alive and well, am I not?"

Feng Gui showed a malicious smile: "Do you feel it's unreal? Turn right when you go out. Hong'er is waiting for you. You will know if it's real when you go there."

Xiaoxiao hesitantly moved towards his uncle, and hugged his uncle's thighs with his two little wings: "Uncle, it's really great that you are alive. I will definitely listen to you obediently in the future, study hard and become a useful demon cultivator, and you must never abandon me again."

Feng Gui's heart softened when he heard this. He bent down and touched Xiao Xiao's forehead: "You will become the most powerful demon cultivator in the world. Go quickly."

When Xiaoxiao left the house, he still felt like he was dreaming. He tilted his head and looked at the people in the room again and again. There were his uncle, Nannan, and Du Hengheng in the room. Was he dreaming? However, when he turned right, he no longer felt like he was dreaming.

Xiaoxiao saw Taishuhong and General Yunzheng Chonghua, as well as the books that filled half the room. Seeing Xiaoxiao, Chonghua smiled: "Xiaofeng Jun is here? Just in time. I heard that you want to learn how to transform? Come on, we are all masters!"

Suddenly, Xiaoxiao's tears fell on his instep. He wanted to take back what he had just said. He should just let him die. He would be at peace after death. Or he should just let his uncle die. After he died, no one would force him to learn anything.

Poor Xiaoxiao was grabbed by Chonghua's feet and dragged into the room. Xiaoxiao protested loudly, and when he was excited he started speaking in dialect again: "Chirp, chirp!!" After the door was closed, no sound could be heard in the room.

Du Heng and the others laughed out loud, and Jing Nan coughed. Feng Gui patted him on the back and straightened the quilt: "Take it easy."

Jing Nan straightened out his breathing and said with a smile, "Don't blame Xiaoxiao for being in a trance. I am still in a trance now. Who would have thought that you would come back like this."

When saying this, Jing Nan's eyes were on Du Heng. From the time they came out of the ruins to the time they settled down, every moment he felt like he was dreaming.

Du Heng raised his hand and swore: "Look, I am alive. I think your kindness must have touched Daozu, and Daozu took pity on me and told me that there are three important people waiting for me here. Otherwise, how could I come back?"

Even though Du Heng swore solemnly, Jing Nan still didn't believe him: "Give me your hand." Jing Nan couldn't sleep well without taking Du Heng's pulse.

Du Heng reluctantly stretched out his hand and let Jing Nan's fingers fall on his pulse. After having Qing Heng's memory, Du Heng felt that he and Nan Nan and Xi Xi were closer. He smiled and asked, "How is it, is everything okay?"

Jing Nan retracted his hand. He was very satisfied: "The soul and body are integrated very well."

Du Heng sighed, "If it weren't for your spiritual warmth and nurturing over the past ten thousand years, this body would have been useless long ago."

When he woke up, he was surrounded by Xixi's feathers. Those gorgeous feathers were not just for decoration. Qingheng was the first person in the history of the cultivation world to use phoenix feathers to nourish his body.

Du Heng looked at Feng Gui, who shrank his neck: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Du Heng swallowed the words that came to his lips. He wanted to ask Feng Gui if he was a little bald, but he was afraid that if he said it, Feng Gui would chase him for three thousand miles. After thinking for a while, he smiled gently and said, "I can cook now. I will make you delicious food. You can rest first."

Feng Gui sighed: "Nan Nan, take a rest, I still have to go to a meeting."

In fact, Du Heng and his team had only been in the Wanzong Ruins for a few days. From the time they entered the ruins to the time they collapsed, there were only a dozen days. It was the end of the twelfth lunar month, and there was still some time before the Wanzong Conference on the second day of the second lunar month next year. However, because of this incident, the Wanzong Conference had to be held earlier. As demon gods, Feng Gui and his team had to attend the Wanzong Conference openly this time.

Before the meeting even started, Feng Gui wanted to hold a brief briefing with the leaders of the human world to explain what happened in the ruins. To be honest, there is still no news of the Dragon Clan envoy behind the scenes. Xuan Yu plans to attack the Dragon Clan directly after the meeting. If he doesn't catch this guy, the Dragon King will not be in a good mood.

Du Heng walked out of the bedroom only after watching Jing Nan fall asleep. Standing outside the corridor, he felt as if he were in another world. At this time, Yi Can Tang was still under the big tree on Shenzao Peak. Looking up, he saw the lush green branches of the tree. Birds chirped on the branches, and Du Heng felt as if he were in another world.

When he walked to the dining hall in front, he saw Jinghong sitting on a stool.

Seeing Du Heng, Jing Hong quickly stood up and saluted: "Saint." Du Heng scratched his head helplessly: "Don't call me that, you can call me Qing Heng or Du Heng."

When Qingheng was canonized as a saint, he had already died. He did not enjoy the glory of a saint at all, and he did not know what a saint was like. Anyway, he felt that he had a lot of problems and none of them were worthy of the title of a saint.

Jinghong smiled and said, "Etiquette cannot be abolished."

Du Heng looked at Jing Hong. After this girl came out of the ruins, she had completely changed. She had shed all her sorrows and was now neat and unrestrained. Du Heng finally understood why Feng Gui had considered Jing Hong his confidant.

Du Heng smiled and said, "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Jinghong said, "I want to leave Shenxu Palace. I came to say hello to the Saint before I leave." Du Heng asked casually, "Aren't you going to stay here?"

Ji Qingyan is in Shenxu Palace, and now Feng Gui has forgiven Jinghong. If she wants to develop something with Ji Qingyan, it is not impossible.

Du Heng also found out later that Jing Nan had been practicing with Jing Hong for eight hundred years in order to be more confident in repairing Xiao Xiao's spiritual roots. Jing Hong had been awake and in pain for eight hundred years, and now that Xiao Xiao's spiritual roots were repaired, her sense of guilt had finally been partially eliminated.

Jinghong shook her head: "No, I have been trapped in my own trap and forgotten myself these years. Later, after listening to the words of the saint, I decided to do more to help the demon clan solve their problems in the future. If Lord Feng or the saint needs me, just say a word." Her feelings for Ji Qingyan ended here, and all the past grievances and hatreds were wiped out.

After saying this, Jinghong took out a storage bag from his sleeve and handed it to Du Heng: "This is the Feihong Order. Once the Feihong Order is issued, Jinghong will come even if he is thousands of miles away."

Du Heng accepted the storage bag solemnly: "In that case, I will accept it. Are you leaving now? If you don't mind, have a bowl of wontons and go."

Jinghong smiled and bowed: "Thank you, Saint." She has been savoring the wontons from the old Ji family in Linhai City for a thousand years, and it's time to change the taste.

The author has something to say: Before reading the book:

Xiaoxiao: Uncle is the best uncle in the world. I never want to leave him again.

After reading the book:

Xiaoxiao: Let uncle die. He will be at peace after death.

Old Cat: What is this called? When the uncle and nephew don't do their homework, they are kind and filial. When they do their homework, the whole family is in chaos. Now, there are other children, and Xiaoxiao's life is difficult.
