Chapter 164 Old Love and Old Grudges
The smoke and dust split to the left and right, and Shi Zhixuan walked out calmly.
He adjusted his scholar's scarf and lightly brushed his sleeves.
There is a natural sense of elegance and grace in his movements, which is related to his peerless skills and "Phantom Demon Body Technique". Even when he is still, he seems to contain the agility that can disappear at any time.
Looking at the woman in front of him who was wearing light-colored clothes, full of youthfulness and exuding an intoxicating charm, Shi Zhixuan smiled even more.
However, that expression was only on his face, and he was already wary in his heart.
It was very strange that he didn't take immediate action to kill him after Shan Yin encountered him.
No one is more familiar with the woman in front of him than him.
Therefore, even from a very subtle observation, one could faintly feel the change in her breath.
In an instant, he listened carefully and heard an imperceptible cracking sound spreading around his body.
An even stronger feeling of spatial collapse pulled at the energy in his body. This feeling made it impossible to exert strength and was extremely uncomfortable, and the force was far greater than before.
The demonic energy in the force field was unpredictable, extremely yin and soft, yet abundant and thick, as if it had become a living thing.
They wrap around the body, making people feel out of control.
"This is the Reincarnation Chapter."
Shi Zhixuan looked at Zhu Yuyan and said, "Xiaoyan, you have broken through the shackles of many years. It is truly a cause for celebration."
Yin Hou held a ribbon in her hand, and her eyes, half covered by her light shirt, stared coldly at Shi Zhixuan: "Who has shackled you for so many years?"
The demonic power surrounding Shi Zhixuan suddenly tightened.
The Heavenly Demonic Art has reached a level of infinite changes, which is enough to restrict his magical body movements.
Seeing the serious vigilance in the eyes of this hateful man for the first time, Queen Yin felt happy even though she had calmed down.
She stretched out her hand and grabbed, and the spatial fluctuations became stronger.
"A day of marriage is a hundred days of grace. We should fight at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed. Don't make things so awkward."
"Go to hell."
A trace of anger appeared in the Yin Queen as she advanced, leaving several shadows in the Heavenly Demon Force Field. When she was near the Evil King, the shadows merged into one, and several ribbons turned into sharp blades that entangled with the power of the Heavenly Demon, trying to drag Shi Zhixuan into the center of the Heavenly Demon Force Field.
At the same time, she opened her mind, integrated her true energy, and made the attack extremely precise, avoiding any possibility of evasion.
The spirits of both sides collided, and their true qi also collided.
The phantom demon's body movement was restrained, but the evil king's spiritual power, which was a combination of Buddha and demon, was still superior to that of the Yin Queen. His state of mind was also more stable than that of the Yin Queen. At this time, he used the rotation of the two energies of life and death to stabilize all the true energy in his body, and cast a seal to dissolve the demon's ribbon.
At the moment of stabilizing the true energy, he did not fight back, but directly moved away from Yin Hou.
"Stop fighting."
Shi Zhixuan raised his hand to stop him: "The Great Demonic Art is indeed powerful. I admit that Xiaoyan is the person in this world with the best chance of killing me, but the corresponding price will be the destruction of both ourselves."
"I have let you down in the past, but we still have some friendship."
The Queen of Yin groaned softly, but did not attack again.
Seeing the sadness in his eyes, he murmured:
"You've been chasing me for so many years, but I just ran away and never attacked you. It was only because I also felt guilty, thinking about how we used to be lovers."
Even in middle age, his charm remains the same, and he is even more charming with the passage of time.
The Queen's voice was devoid of emotion: "Don't try to flatter me. Do you still think I'll let you deceive me like I did decades ago?"
Shi Zhixuan smiled gently and did not dwell on the issue on which he had made a big mistake.
"Now that you have broken free from your shackles, you should pursue the ultimate realm of martial arts. If we fight to the death here, it will only benefit others."
He looked at the veil covering Queen Yin's face and said in a negotiating tone, "Why don't you and I join forces and seize the relic together?"
Seeing that Queen Yin hesitated for a moment, Shi Zhixuan tried to find out that the relic was not with her.
"Our grudges have not yet been settled."
"Many masters have come to Bashu. You and I can both sense the relic, and the rest of the Saint Sect must be able to do the same. Let's work together to get the relic first. In the end, whether you or I take it, it will be a good outcome. After all, good things should be kept within the family."
No matter how nice he says, the Queen of Yin will not believe it.
But thinking of the situation in Bashu, she glanced at the hateful man but did not refuse.
Shi Zhixuan took her as his tacit consent and couldn't help but frown as he looked towards the mountain path.
"Xiao Yan, did you teach this kid the Heavenly Demonic Technique?"
"Do you think it's possible?"
Seeing his unfriendly expression, Zhu Yuyan slowly said, "Do you think you are the only one who can impress the successor of the Yingui Sect?"
She added sarcastically:
"If he were your contemporary, the Huajian Sect's protector would definitely choose him over you when selecting a successor."
Shi Zhixuan seemed to be thinking about something, then revealed an evil look, as if he was not angry at all.
He tilted his gaze slightly and stared in the direction of the mountain path.
…
Mount Emei was shrouded in mist and fog. A white shadow passed by at high speed, bringing with it a strong wind, which further disturbed the mountain fog and startled the birds in the forest, causing them to flap their wings and fly away.
Despite feeling threatened, Zhou Yi did not relax at all.
They ran for more than an hour without saying a word.
We arrived at a mountain stream, surrounded by overgrown weeds and tangled branches. The stream flowed eastward from the mountain stream and flowed into a small pond. The spring water was clear and pure.
Birds chirp and insects buzz everywhere, making you feel at ease.
I think it is a place where few people go.
Near the spring pond, the clear water was like a mirror, reflecting the two people in the water.
Zhou Yi listened carefully, then stopped and put the person in his arms down.
Shi Qingxuan was a little slow, and it took her a few breaths to react, and she loosened her arms that were hugging him.
The wind was whistling in my ears all the way.
She was restless and had all kinds of complicated emotions, so she regarded Zhou Yi as a temporary support, which was an experience she had never had before.
Turning around, I saw him squatting by the pool and drinking the mountain spring water.
I couldn't help but move closer, and when I got to a position a little downstream, I soaked my hands in the water, and a sense of coolness seeped into my heart.
"Although Shi Zhixuan's skills are high, I am not afraid and choose to retreat. However, another expert has just arrived."
Zhou Yi saw her looking at him and said comfortingly:
"But he said he wanted to kill you, so it's true."
"I fought him once at Longxing Temple. His martial arts and spirit have changed a lot, especially his mental state. He used to have a deep-seated melancholy and loneliness, but this time it's gone."
"If he had achieved full power and regained consciousness, there would be no reason for him to kill you."
Shi Qingxuan sighed softly: "His martial arts skills and spirit have nothing to do with me, I don't want to talk about him."
Her voice was more concerned. "Are you hurt?"
"Of course not."
"Do you know who the person behind is?"
Zhou Yi replied, "Most likely the Queen of Yin."
Then, he told Shi Qingxuan the general situation of Queen Yin.
She thought quickly: "Although your special true energy cannot be absorbed and stored into this yellow crystal stone like the previous evil emperors, it is equivalent to awakening the relics. Perhaps they found it through special intuition."
"This is very dangerous. You'll attract all their attention and cause big trouble."
Zhou Yi also considered that if he lured people from Duzun Fort to the Sichuan Gang, Jie Hui would wake up laughing in his dreams.
Therefore, I don’t plan to touch the relic for the time being and give it to Shi Qingxuan for safekeeping.
Thinking of the battle at Caoting just now, I couldn't help but speculate:
"If it were in the past, Queen Yin would have attacked Shi Zhixuan immediately. This shows that her mentality has undergone a huge change."
After hearing this, Shi Qingxuan revealed a solemn expression: "If they think the relic is with you, they will definitely come after you."
"If you had lost the relic then, even if you could have escaped, it might have ruined your plans in Bashu."
"It's not a good place to stay, let's go quickly"
The two were cautious enough, quickened their pace, and headed straight for Chengdu.
