Chapter 257 Qimen Dunjia
Yun Qingqing opened her eyes and looked at him questioningly:
"What's wrong?"
Xiao Changheng said expressionlessly:
"What do you need me to do?"
"Oh, no need. Just wait a moment, it will be done soon." Yun Qingqing closed her eyes again, made a hand gesture, and the formation glowed faintly.
Xiao Changheng: "..."
A light laugh suddenly sounded behind him. When he turned around, he saw Zhiluo raising an eyebrow at him and then walking into the dense forest.
Xiao Changheng's eyes darkened and he followed.
After Zhiluo left the formation for a distance, she leaned against a tree, crossed her arms, and looked at him, her red lips curled up:
"Your Majesty, is this unbalanced?"
Xiao Changheng looked at her coldly without saying anything.
Zhiluo mercilessly revealed his thoughts:
"Why is it that even Nan Zheng can enter that formation to help, but you are excluded, right?"
Xiao Changheng squinted his eyes and looked at her for a moment, then his depression suddenly dissipated and he turned to look towards the open space in the distance.
The corners of his lips curved:
"After all, she is determined to draw a clear line between herself and me, which is not difficult to understand."
"It doesn't matter. This king has plenty of patience."
Zhiluo was stunned. Both of these sentences surprised her:
"You think so? And...what patience?"
Xiao Changheng didn't answer any questions.
Zhiluo was silent for a moment and decided to make things clear first.
"As for drawing a clear line, you're overthinking it."
"Oh?" Xiao Changheng turned to look at her, "What do you mean?"
"This heavenly calamity is of no small magnitude. You and your men are involved in it. She has included relevant personnel into the formation, which can greatly improve the accuracy of the calculation." Zhiluo explained.
"But you should know that you carry the destiny of the nation. In other words, your existence is much more important than that of an ordinary person. We call this importance weight."
"The more powerful someone is, the greater the cost. That's why Qingqing has never directly predicted your future events."
Xiao Changheng understood immediately and showed a look of enlightenment.
"I see."
So she chose to join the southern expedition instead of herself, not because she was deliberately distancing herself.
Zhiluo seemed to see through his thoughts and said with a half-smile:
"Don't worry, Qingqing has a pure heart. She never blames people for things they didn't mean to her. Besides, she cut off her feelings for you with her own hands. She knows very well that you won't have any other thoughts about her. How could she possibly do such unnecessary things?"
"You know it very well."
Xiao Changheng curled his lips without a smile.
"There is one thing I don't understand. Why did Miss Zhiluo specifically tell me this?"
"Of course, because I have heard about your deal."
Zhiluo put away her smile and sighed softly.
"My Lord Regent, you would rather break up than let her leave you. Since Qingqing has agreed, I won't say anything more."
"I just hope you understand that the path she's taking is completely unimaginable to ordinary people. If you had no connection with her, it wouldn't be a big deal if you didn't understand these things. But since you've bound your entire life to her, you can't remain completely ignorant like before."
"If you have any questions about this matter in the future, you can ask me. As long as it helps her, I will tell her everything I know."
Xiao Changheng raised his eyebrows in surprise, then nodded and said:
"Then I would like to thank Miss Zhiluo first."
Zhiluo waved her hand:
"No need to thank me. I'm helping you because I just hope you can hold her back as little as possible."
"..." Xiao Changheng withdrew his gaze expressionlessly, turned around and left.
I just thought this mountain ghost was more pleasing to the eye, but it turns out I was overthinking it.
…
In the clear and peaceful interior.
Nan Zheng stared at the surrounding universe and starry sky in amazement, taking a deep breath and not exhaling for a long time.
In the midst of the overwhelming sight, he found himself completely suspended in this space. If Yun Qingqing had not reminded him not to panic, he would have almost screamed out loud.
It's not that he is timid, it's just that the feeling of being suspended in the air makes him feel like he will fall into the abyss at any time.
Yun Qingqing was not surprised by Nan Zheng's reaction. She casually threw a calming spell at him, and Nan Zheng felt reassured and his mind finally became clear.
"...Thank you, Princess." He let out a long sigh and immediately clasped his fists in thanks.
Yun Qingqing nodded at him and said:
"Concentrate your mind and think about the original mission of coming to Pingzhou this time."
Nan Zheng immediately did as he was told.
Yun Qingqing waited for a while, until she was sure that Nan Zheng was fully into the state. She changed her hand gestures and unfolded the three plates of heaven, earth and man in Qi Men Dun Jia.
As the formation plate was unfolded, her expression became somewhat solemn.
She did not directly use the Heavenly Disaster Tribulation to set up the formation, but was very careful to use indirect methods and make indirect divinations.
But this formation is still much larger than the one she used when she was at the northwest border and forcibly searching for Xiao Changheng's whereabouts.
Yun Qingqing had already anticipated that this disaster was man-made.
This is not difficult to judge. Xiao Changheng himself is connected with the national destiny. After the evil energy on his legs was cleared, she used her spiritual eyes to carefully observe the luck around him.
At that time, he was surrounded by pure and majestic purple aura, which showed that Daliang's national destiny was safe and the country was stable.
Afterwards, she also briefly calculated the fortune of Liang State in the past ten years, and the conclusion she came to confirmed this point.
Therefore, this sudden disaster, even if it was a natural disaster, was definitely not caused by nature.
Yun Qingqing closed her eyes, but several huge formations were reflected in her mind exactly.
She carefully used her spiritual sense to move the array plate, calculating the details related to the heavenly calamity.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes sharply and looked up into the void.
