Chapter 380: Your Majesty, can you do me a favor?
It was a fairyland-like scenery, with a tree as cold and white as jade growing on the edge of the cliff.
"Think about it carefully. Do you have any impression of this?" Yun Qingqing asked while paying close attention to Xiao Changheng's reaction.
What is hidden in the deepest level of consciousness must be the most important thing. If we can understand its meaning, it may help to unravel the mysteries surrounding him.
The most important thing is that she intuitively felt that this was related to his sudden coma in Xuanyuan Tower.
Xiao Changheng looked at the scene in the picture carefully and shook his head:
"...I've never seen this before. What is this?"
Yun Qingqing looked at his obviously confused eyes and sighed in her heart.
Yuan Si's voice rang out from outside the door:
"My Lord, the ancient book has been delivered."
Yun Qingqing raised her hand and waved away the screen: "Come in."
Yuan Si came in with a few disciples and carried in several large boxes.
He held a small wooden box in his hand, placed it on the table, and said:
"My Lord, this box contains the ancient history that was researched and supplemented by the elders of the Xuanyuan lineage after the entire clan disappeared. The other boxes contain the classics that came after that time."
"Thank you very much."
Yun Qingqing opened the small wooden box, took out a few books, no more than a dozen in total, and spread them out, her eyes scanning the covers one by one.
Xiao Changheng walked aside and looked at the books. Suddenly, his attention was attracted by the title of a book. He reached out to pick it up and read it.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Yuan Si grabbed his wrist and said coldly, "These ancient books are the treasures of my Seven Star Palace. They are not something an ordinary person like you can touch casually!"
Xiao Changheng froze.
Yun Qingqing's face turned cold, and she pulled him to her side, picked up the book and stuffed it into his hand, then glanced at Yuan Si lightly:
"I let him see it. Do you have any objection?"
"No, I dare not!" Yuan Si's face changed slightly, and he lowered his head and retreated.
"Everyone, go down. Don't disturb us unless necessary." Yun Qingqing sent the others away in a cold voice.
When I turned around, I saw that Xiao Changheng had put down the book, walked back to the window, and stood there silently with an expressionless face.
Yun Qingqing frowned, picked up the book and was about to put it away, but saw the big words "Secret Book of Root Bone" on the cover.
She tightened her fingers and silently put the book down again.
She looked at Xiao Changheng's back in silence for a while, then suddenly opened several large boxes one by one, then sat down at the table, supporting her cheeks with her hands and sighing heavily.
"well!"
Xiao Changheng seemed to move slightly, but still did not turn around, looking at the scenery outside the window with loneliness.
Yun Qingqing frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly picked up a book and flipped through the pages loudly. Then he slammed the book on the table and sighed even more heavily.
She began to talk to herself:
"Oh~~, this is so annoying! What should I do..."
Xiao Changheng was startled by the noise she made and frowned. Turning around, he saw her little face wrinkled and she was looking at the pile of books in front of her with a sad face.
"There are so many things to deal with! I have to refine my willpower overnight. How can I finish reading so many books in such a short time..."
She mumbled as she met Xiao Changheng's gaze. Her black jade-like eyes blinked, and suddenly she smiled. She stood up, ran over, pulled him to the table, and said with a smile:
"Um, Your Majesty, can you do me a favor?"
Xiao Changheng: "..."
"You're free anyway, so I'll give you these books, okay? Don't feel pressured, just read as much as you can, and then tell me about them when you have time."
Yun Qingqing pulled his sleeve and smiled brightly.
Xiao Changheng felt dazed for a moment, and suddenly remembered the day when he first met her. He saw the light again after a long period of darkness, and the little girl in front of him was so vivid... She acted as if it were real.
At that time, everyone said that she was extremely ugly, but his eyes were full of her clear and pure eyes.
Now that I think about it, it was just that one glance that decided everything.
Seeing him speechless in a daze, Yun Qingqing tilted her head, pursed her lips, nodded in sudden realization, and said:
"You can ask for any conditions you want! Don't worry, I won't let you suffer any loss. We know each other so well. You know me. I always do business sincerely and without reservation..."
"good."
Xiao Changheng suddenly chuckled softly, interrupting her chatter.
Yun Qingqing looked at him and blinked:
"So what are your conditions this time?"
Xiao Changheng walked to a large bookcase, dragged a chair over and sat down, picked up the book on top, and said calmly:
"It's just a small matter, no conditions are needed."
"Hey..." Yun Qingqing moved closer and looked at him carefully, "Are you sure? You really don't want to make any demands?"
Xiao Changheng raised his eyes to look at her and was about to speak.
There was a sudden knock on the door, and a disciple quietly announced that dinner was ready.
Xiao Changheng raised his eyebrows, gestured towards the door, and said:
"Okay, on the condition that you eat well, then concentrate on refining your willpower, finish your business here as soon as possible and return to the Imperial Capital with me."
"Deal!" Yun Qingqing smiled.
This person finally returned to his normal self, and the inexplicable tension in her heart dissipated, and she felt relieved.
Xiao Changheng always kept his word. After dinner, he went straight to those ancient books. Before starting, he urged her to go back quickly to refine her willpower and not to delay for too long and hurt her body.
Yun Qingqing watched him carefully flipping through the ancient books, and her brows softened unconsciously.
Before leaving, she picked up the "Secret Book of Root Bones" and wanted to quietly put it into the space, but she looked at Xiao Changheng hesitantly and put the book back to its original place.
She guessed why he was interested in this book, but it was impossible to understand a book about one's constitution without a foundation in cultivation.
If I put it away and don't let him see it, it will only cause him more trouble.
Yun Qingqing gave up the idea and quietly retreated.
When the door closed, Xiao Changheng quietly raised his head and looked at the book on the table that was picked up and put down. His fingers slowly tightened, and his deep black eyes were secretly filled with ripples.
…
Yun Qingqing walked around the villa.
She was in a very good mood at the moment, so she simply found a satisfactory open space and casually set up a huge spirit gathering formation, surrounding the entire villa.
Guhe Mountain, where the Seven Stars Palace is located, is a Feng Shui treasure land. With the gathering formation she set up, the concentration of spiritual energy in the villa soon exceeded that of her small courtyard in the Imperial Capital.
Yun Qingqing nodded in satisfaction and sat in the yard to meditate.
Little did they know that the commotion in the villa soon alarmed the entire inner gate, and spread to the outer gate as if it had wings, shocking the entire Seven Star Hall.
A night passed.
The refining of the willpower went smoothly, except for one slightly unexpected situation.
Originally, Ji Wujiang, the current ancestor of Xuanmen, combined with the wishes of several elders, was already both pure and majestic.
According to Yun Qingqing's current physical condition, she can almost fill 80% of her Qi Hai.
But to her surprise, the refining that could have been completed in half a night, for some reason, began to continue to flow in in the second half of the night.
