Chapter 713 I Promise You a Lifetime
The first day of the Xuanmen Conference will mainly focus on the opening and exhibition matches, and the real competition will not officially begin until tomorrow.
Nightfall.
On the highest peak of Tianyu Mountain, Yun Qingqing stood with his hands behind his back.
The night wind blew her clothes, making rustling sounds. Her eyes were full of light, and her pupils reflected the various lights of destiny in the world.
She lightly drew a line in the air with her fingertips, and runes flew away into the distance like shooting stars, disappearing into the night.
After a long time, she finally stopped and spoke softly.
"Why don't you come out?"
There were soft footsteps behind me.
Si Ling walked out from the darkness, his silver hair like a waterfall, glowing faintly in the moonlight.
Her unfocused silver eyes did not affect her movements at all, and she walked accurately to stand beside Yun Qingqing.
"Master...is there something you didn't tell me?"
Yun Qingqing turned to look at her. The little girl's face looked particularly cold under the moonlight.
She smiled calmly:
"After two thousand years of not seeing you, Xiao Ling'er has become more perceptive than before."
Si Ling was unmoved: "So what is it?"
Silence spread between the two of them, and the mountain wind whistled, blowing up a few fallen leaves.
"Qi Mo is back," Yun Qingqing finally spoke, "Chang Liu, you've also seen him. Ying Quan is in the Medical Immortal Valley..."
She paused.
"Tong Hua and Lu Ming worked together to deliver Liu Fang to me. They should have been reincarnated... Only Yan Shu has never been found."
"Fourth Brother..."
Si Ling suddenly turned her head and raised her little face.
The pair of silver eyes that could not see accurately met Yun Qingqing's gaze, as if they could see through everything, but did not focus on any one point.
The little girl's long silver hair suddenly fluttered without wind, and her childish voice had a sense of ethereality.
"The green dragon lurks in the river, the abyss locks the Dongling——"
Yun Qingqing was shocked. She didn't expect that Si Ling's power of prophecy would be activated at this time.
"Qing Chi Qian Jiang..." She murmured and repeated, and something suddenly flashed through her mind, "Dong Ling... Is it Dong Ling River?"
Si Ling's silver hair fell down, and his voice returned to normal, and he said softly:
"Master knows?"
Yun Qingqing nodded, took Si Ling's hand, and gave her some spiritual energy.
"So the one in Dongling River was Yan Shu, no wonder..."
Not long after Tianming Pavilion started operating, she met Youya during the Lu family's "guardian deity" incident. In that case, Lu Yu confessed that when he went south by water, he threw a mother and son into the river as a sacrifice in order to appease the so-called "wrath of the river god."
That river is the Dongling River.
Later, Zhiluo went to investigate the so-called River God, but did not find him. Instead, she discovered that the mother and son who were thrown into the river were rescued safely after drifting in the river for dozens of miles.
Yun Qingqing knew that the "River God" was not an evil creature, so she did not investigate further.
At this moment, her spiritual pupils lit up again, and she was shocked to find that after Si Ling revealed the prophecy, a faint causal line appeared on her body, pointing in the direction of Dongling River.
Her fourth disciple, Yanshu, was originally a green Chi with the blood of ancient dragons.
"Master, are you going to look for him?" Si Ling asked softly.
Yun Qingqing came back to her senses, the clear light in her eyes disappeared, and she pinched her fingers lightly a few times.
"He is still sleeping now, but the spiritual energy in the world is gradually recovering, so he shouldn't be sleeping for long. Let's wait a little longer."
Yun Qingqing's realm is now much higher than before. After Yan Shu's identity was revealed, she easily figured out his situation and understood what happened to Lu Yu's "River God's mischief" incident.
The wind and waves were not caused by Yanshu, he was also sleeping at that time.
It was because Lu Yu had done so many evil things that he deserved to suffer such a disaster. His cargo should have been overturned and sunk into the river, but the innocent people on the boat would not be in any harm.
However, for his own safety, he threw a living person into the river as a "toll", which startled the green dragon and wild goose at the bottom of the river.
Yan Shu himself was weak and unable to accurately control the wind and waves. In order to avoid harming innocent people, he could only forcibly separate a bit of his spiritual consciousness to calm the wind and waves, so as to prevent them from doing anything that would anger God and man.
After secretly sending the mother and child to shore safely, he fell into a deep sleep again, and his breath disappeared, so when Zhiluo went to investigate, she found nothing.
“So that’s how it is…” Si Ling was silent for a moment after hearing the whole story.
"After Fourth Senior Brother handed over the inner elixir, he sank to the bottom of the river and fell asleep."
Yun Qingqing curled her fingertips and remained silent for a long time.
"Why did he hand over the inner elixir and to whom did he give it...you don't remember it, right?" In the end, she just sighed.
Many things are self-evident now.
Si Ling nodded silently.
"It's late at night," Yun Qingqing turned around, "Go to bed early."
"Master, please go back first. I want to be alone for a while." Si Ling did not follow her.
Yun Qingqing didn't say much and turned to leave. She knew that with Si Ling's strength, there would be no danger on Tianyu Mountain.
It was not until the Master's figure completely disappeared into the night that Si Ling whispered to himself at the empty mountain top:
"It's the truth, but... I didn't tell you everything... Master, what are you worried about?"
…
…
Yun Qingqing returned to the courtyard where she lived and paused.
The moonlight flowed quietly like water on the lotus pond in the center of the courtyard. A man in white stood by the pond. He turned around when he heard the voice, stared at her with his deep black eyes, and walked slowly to her.
"Are you done?" Xiao Changheng gently held her in his arms and whispered in her ear, "Thank you for your hard work."
Yun Qingqing's heart beat a little faster. She raised her hands to wrap around his waist, pursed her lips gently, and buried her face in his chest.
Xiao Changheng sensed her silence, lowered his eyes and looked at the top of her head, for a moment, then slowly spoke:
"I always feel uneasy... When I saw you, I knew something was going to happen, right?"
Yun Qingqing's fingertips tightened. This man's intuition was terrifyingly accurate. It turned out that this was the real reason why he came here.
variable.
She was silent for a while, took a deep breath, raised her head, and smiled faintly:
"Don't worry, it will be solved."
The man's deep eyes reflected the moonlight, and he looked at her deeply:
"Of course I believe you, but..."
Yun Qingqing held his face and sealed the rest of his words with her lips.
Xiao Changheng's breathing suddenly stagnated, his pupils slightly dilated, feeling the sweetness of night dew between his lips and teeth, he couldn't help but hold the back of her head and deepen the kiss.
The night wind blew past with the fragrance of lotus, but could not blow away the lingering warmth between the lips.
After a long time, the two of them separated slightly with light breathing. Yun Qingqing raised her eyes, and the moonlight reflected her slightly red face and a pair of clear and unwavering black eyes.
"Remember, no matter what happens tomorrow, I will return to you safely. I have promised you my whole life, and I will never break my promise."
"So, just protect yourself and wait for me to come back, okay?"
Xiao Changheng stared at her, slowly lowered his head, and covered her lips again.
The man whispered in a low voice:
"Well...I believe you..."
