A sword beam slashed towards where the eldest grandson Jun was standing. He dodged to the side, and the stone at his feet was immediately smashed into powder.
Gao Tianzhu's sword missed, and he continued to attack while chanting incantations. In an instant, eighteen blue sword shadows swirled around him, stabbing at Changsun Zijun from all directions! Changsun Zijun immediately opened his body-protecting sword energy, and the eighteen sword lights were bounced away by his body-protecting sword energy. Under Gao Tianzhu's control, they continued to attack his body protection, intending to penetrate his body protection!
Gao Tianzhu actually used the Hongmeng Eighteen Styles of the Hongmeng School right away. Once this sword style is used, unless the attacker takes the initiative to withdraw the move, no matter where the enemy escapes, the eighteen swords will always chase the enemy until the attacker's spiritual power is exhausted. This is a sure-kill move that is only used when chasing and killing a vicious and extremely evil person, and Gao Tianzhu did not even listen to the eldest grandson Zijun's explanation before using such a killer move, as if he had a blood feud with him!
The eldest grandson, Zijun, only protected himself and did not fight back. He looked at Master Hong Yi with no expression on his face: "Master, you have recognized the wrong person."
But even though he said this, Gao Tianzhu's hostility did not diminish at all, and the people around him drew their swords and stood ready to surround him. After all, for others, the weight of his words was not the same as that of Master Hong Yi's words.
Even Yi Xichen was blocked. He was in the same group as his eldest grandson, Zijun. Everyone was watching closely, fearing that he would escape. Yi Xichen resisted the urge to draw his sword - once he drew his sword, there would be no turning back - he pretended to be relaxed, but his hand was already beside the scabbard, his eyes fixed on Master Hong Yi, to see if he insisted on identifying them.
However, Master Hong Yi was surprised. It was obvious that he was not aware of the Tianjian Sect's wanted order: "Wanted? What's going on? Tianzhu, stop it now!"
Gao Tianzhu was attacking fiercely, so he was unwilling to stop. He shouted, "Master, you were in seclusion before leaving the mountain, so you didn't know that Changsun Zijun and Yi Xichen killed his master. The elder of Tianjian Sect's medicine pavilion, Yao Budu. Tianjian Sect has issued a wanted order throughout the world. If anyone sees them, Changsun Zijun, the evil disciple, should be executed on the spot, and Yi Xichen should be brought back to Tianjian Sect to be punished according to the sect's rules!"
Master Hong Yi was surprised and frowned slightly. He looked at his eldest grandson Jun and remained silent.
The eldest grandson Jun was still just protecting his body, but Gao Tianzhu couldn't break his body protection even with all his strength. The eldest grandson Jun emphasized: "Master, you've admitted your mistake!"
Master Hong Yi was relieved: "Since you said so... I must have made a mistake. When I first met that old friend, he was only seven or eight years old. Now more than ten years have passed, and his appearance should have changed."
Gao Tianzhu was still unwilling to give up and wanted to attack again. Master Hong Yi shouted, "Gao Tianzhu, I'll let you come back!"
Having been addressed by name, Gao Tianzhu could no longer ignore Master Hong Yi's orders. He reluctantly put away his sword and returned to Master Hong Yi's side. The eighteen blue sword lights surrounding the body of the eldest grandson Jun disappeared, and the eldest grandson Jun also put away the sword energy that protected his body.
Master Hong Yi said, "I'm sorry, young friend, for causing you trouble."
The eldest grandson Zijun looked indifferent and said, "It's okay. If there is nothing else, I'll take my leave." After saying that, he pulled Yi Xichen up and was about to leave.
Gao Tianzhu asked anxiously, "Master, are you sure he is not the eldest grandson, Zijun? You have mentioned him every year, and now that you have seen him, how could you have mistaken him?"
Master Hong Yi gave him a stern look and said, "How can you act so rashly? The young man I know is not a bad guy!"
Gao Tianzhu looked embarrassed and had to shut up.
The master and disciple of the Hongmeng Sect had no intention of pursuing the matter, so naturally, the others had to give way. However, after listening to the conversation just now, everyone was confused. Whether it was the invincible man in front of him or not, the person that Master Hong Yi knew was definitely the eldest grandson of Tianjian Sect, Zijun. But Tianjian Sect had already issued a wanted order throughout the country, so there was no way there was a mistake. Master Hong Yi said that the young man was not a bad person, which was strange. There were even those who were busy with troubles, and they had already begun to make up stories about whether Tianjian Sect and the Hongmeng Sect had some hidden ties.
The eldest grandson Zijun led Yi Xichen away from the crowd quickly. Some people followed them but were soon left behind. After leaving people's sight, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Yi Xichen didn't expect that they would encounter so many problems just because they were out for a stroll. He was confused. He asked, "Zijun, do you know that Master Hong Yi?"
"It was just a chance encounter."
"You have a sister? I never heard you say that."
“…”
The eldest grandson, Zijun, pursed his lips, a little irritated. He and Yi Xichen were close friends, but both of them had some pasts that they were reluctant to mention before entering Tianjianmen. Yi Xichen once told him lightly about the blood feud between his parents, because his great revenge had not yet been avenged, and when they cultivated the great way in the future, there would always be a day for revenge. As for the eldest grandson, Zijun's past was not something he deliberately concealed from Yi Xichen, but the past was the past, and the revenge that should have been avenged had already been avenged, so there was no need to bring up the past again.
Yi Xichen had a clear and delicate mind. Seeing that he looked unhappy, he knew that he didn't want to talk about it anymore, so he quickly changed the subject: "I wonder if that beast pill cultivator has been caught." Just after he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something and his face changed, "Where's Feiji?!"
The eldest grandson, Jun, also stopped.
With so many things happening one after another, they didn't even notice that Fei Ji was missing!!
Yi Xichen hurriedly opened the Qiankun bag, but there was no trace of Fei Ji in the bag.
"Oh no, could it be captured by that person?!"
Yi Xichen recalled hastily that he had not seen Feiji since his eldest grandson Zijun fought the Ice Peak Giant Wolf. The Beast Dan Xiu was panicked when he escaped, but he had practiced so many evil arts, maybe he secretly took Feiji away when they were not paying attention!
The eldest grandson, Jun, jumped on his sword and chased after him without saying anything. No matter how much he disliked Feiji, he couldn't just sit there and watch Feiji fall into the hands of such a villain!
However, before he could draw his sword, he saw a fat gray figure slowly flying towards them. It was Feiji!
The two of them were slightly startled. Yi Xichen immediately rushed forward and grabbed the fat bird, feeling both happy and angry: "Fei Ji! Where have you been!"
Feiji burped: "Hi!"
The eldest grandson Zijun and Yi Xichen immediately discovered that Feiji's spiritual power was much stronger than before, obviously because he had just had a full meal!
"Whose spirit stones did you steal again?" Yi Xichen said angrily, "Thief! Didn't I tell you not to eat other people's things?"
Feiji slipped out of his palm unhappily and landed on the ground, chirping and flapping its wings. It couldn't speak human language yet, and hopped around on the ground. The two of them looked closely and saw that it jumped out of the shape of a hexagram, which looked very much like the trap that Dan Xiu had created just now.
The eldest grandson, Jun: "...that Dan Xiu?"
Feiji chirped in agreement and flew back to Yi Xichen's shoulder.
Yi Xichen didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You went to drill into someone's Qiankun bag? You are so brave! Aren't you afraid that he will also give you a slave contract!"
Fei Ji turned his head away to show his disdain: What can you do to a guy like that?
Yi Xichen grabbed it off his shoulder and was about to scold it, but Feiji was impatient to listen, so he made a "chi" sound and went straight back into his Qiankun bag.
No matter what, at least it came back safe and sound. Yi Xichen heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Forget it, let's go back."
This evil Hua City was simply a den of money. Yi Xichen felt uncomfortable just walking around, so he went back to his room with his eldest grandson Zijun to meditate and practice.
In the blink of an eye, it was dark and time to rest.
Yi Xichen was meditating when he heard a noise nearby. He looked up and saw his eldest grandson, Zijun, standing by the bed, making the bed. His back was very straight, and even when he was doing things, he would only bend his waist, not hunch his back, so no matter what he did, his posture was always good. He was calm and unhurried, never humble, and always worthy of being relied on.
Yi Xichen felt itchy inside and suddenly wanted to rush up and jump onto his back.
He liked to lie on the back of his eldest grandson Jun since he was a child. He still remembered the first time he was carried on his back by his eldest grandson Jun. It was because he was making trouble and was punished by Yao Budu to kneel. At that time, they were still young and their cultivation was not deep. After kneeling for three days and three nights, his knees were so painful that he couldn't bend. When his eldest grandson Jun came to pick him up, he saw that he was walking with tears in his eyes, so he took the initiative to squat in front of him and said, "Get up."
He was not polite at all, and leaned over to lie on the back of the eldest grandson, Jun, and hugged his neck. The eldest grandson held him steadily and walked towards the disciples' room. The distance was not long, only about half a cup of tea, but he fell asleep on the back of the eldest grandson, Jun.
Since then, he liked to jump on the back of his eldest grandson Jun. Sometimes when he was meditating, he would approach him from behind, jump on his back and strangle his neck. Then Jun would put his hands behind his back, grab the back of his collar and pull him off. He jumped on again and was pulled off again, repeating several times. Although Jun looked cold, he had a good temper and never got angry with him. Occasionally, when he was annoyed by him, his handsome face would just turn red.
The eldest grandson, Zijun, asked him, "Why do you always throw yourself on my back?"
He said, "Zijun, your back is so comfortable, more comfortable than the bed. You sit in meditation and let me sleep on your back for a while."
"All right."
He knelt on the ground with his legs apart, hugged his eldest grandson Zijun's neck from behind, and buried his face in his shoulders. This posture was not very comfortable, and after a while, he turned around and sat back to back with his eldest grandson Zijun, lazily putting all his strength on Zijun.
The eldest grandson, Zijun, asked him, "How can you sleep like this?"
He twisted his body and said, "It's comfortable. You are more comfortable than the bed and the chair. I don't want to sleep. Let me lean on you for a while."
That happened when they were very young, when they were only ten years old. He was thick-skinned and did things without any taboos. He even did shameless things like dragging his eldest grandson Zijun to compete with him to see who could pee farther. Later, when he grew up, he felt embarrassed to always let his eldest grandson Zijun carry him. But sometimes when they went out of the demon cave or the forest together, he would use the excuse that his spiritual power was exhausted and refused to carry the sword himself, so he let his eldest grandson Zijun carry him with the sword. He stood behind and lay on Zijun's back, and he could sleep comfortably on the cloud.
Yi Xichen began to think again, when was the last time he lay on the back of his eldest grandson Zijun? If he was not dreaming, it should be last night, when he rolled over to Zijun's side while sleeping, put his hands and feet on him, but was pushed down by him. He was addicted to the comfortable feeling of that back, and pressed forward again in a daze, and was pushed down again. Then he heard the stern voice of his eldest grandson Zijun: "Don't do this, you will get pregnant!"
Then what? Then he thought to himself that even a dream was so enchanting, and then he fell asleep.
The eldest grandson, Zijun, had already made the bed and lay down on it first, crawling into the inner side of the bed. He lay with his face against the wall, still leaving his back to Yi Xichen.
Yi Xichen suddenly said: "Zijun..."
"Um?"
Yi Xichen climbed onto the bed and lay down facing his back: "Back then in the dark cave, you said I was the one you liked..."
"Huh, who likes it, huh."
Yi Xichen smiled and poked his back with his finger: "Hey, what do you think love is?"
The eldest grandson, Jun, did not move or answer.
Yi Xichen wanted to say, "I like you too, I like you the most, I like you the most, I like you incomparably." But he felt that his so-called love might be different from the love that Chang Sunzi Jun said. The love that Chang Sunzi Jun said...maybe it was between a couple.
Taoist couple? He had never thought about getting married to a Taoist couple, but if his eldest grandson Jun liked her very much, he would have no objection - he had never thought about separating from his eldest grandson Jun anyway, so there was nothing wrong with getting married to him!
"Zijun, why are you ignoring me?"
The eldest grandson Jun finally turned over and faced him.
Yi Xichen said: "Although you have become strange after being possessed by the devil, but...well, never mind that, I like you anyway."
The eldest grandson Jun shook his head slowly: "It's different."
Yi Xichen had expected him to say this, and immediately continued: "I know, you are talking about the kind of Taoist couple, right? To me, you are the most important person to me, my senior brother, my friend, my elder brother, and also... well, Taoist couple. Although I have never thought about it before, if I want to be a Taoist couple, I will not look for anyone else except you."
Before the eldest grandson Zijun could speak, he continued, "It may sound strange for me to say this, but I can feel that you seem to be... not unhappy recently, but I can feel that you are enduring. I know you want to take care of me, and I feel the same way. I don't want you to always... oh, I don't know how to say it, anyway, I like you very much. I am willing to be your partner and cultivate together... or forget it."
The eldest grandson, Jun, still said, "It's different."
"What's the difference?" Yi Xichen was at a loss. There was nothing between them that they couldn't talk about, and they wouldn't get angry even if they talked about it. Therefore, he never really got angry about the ridiculous obsession of the eldest grandson Jun, because no matter what the eldest grandson Jun said, he couldn't have a child. But now, there were some things that the eldest grandson Jun was obviously unwilling to say.
So he continued to ask: "Why is it different?"
Suddenly, the eldest grandson Jun moved over and closed the distance between them. Very close, so close that they could see a few hairs on each other's face, so close that there was only a piece of paper between their lips, and as long as he moved his lips slightly, they would kiss.
Yi Xichen subconsciously wanted to hide, but he held back and didn't move. He thought this must be his eldest grandson Zijun telling him what was different.
The eldest grandson, Zijun, lowered his eyes, and his long eyelashes brushed across Yi Xichen's nose. His gaze fell on Yi Xichen's lips.
Zijun is going to kiss me, Yi Xichen thought. His heartbeat quickened, and he held his breath, suppressing the little fear and uneasiness in his heart, and did not dodge. But he pursed his lips slightly.
However, the eldest grandson Zijun did not kiss him, but just kept such a close distance that made him feel uneasy, itchy, and confused. His eyes moved up from Yi Xichen's lips and began to look into Yi Xichen's eyes.
They just stared at each other, with only each other in their clear eyes.
From confusion to uneasiness to bewilderment to fascination and then to confusion again, they didn't know how long they had been watching like this, and Yi Xichen became uneasy again.
At this moment, the eldest grandson Jun stepped back.
He said, “It’s different.”
This time, Yi Xichen said nothing. He vaguely grasped the intention of Zhang Sunzijun. He felt something stuck in his chest, but just like Zhang Sunzijun's words "different", he couldn't explain it clearly.
The eldest grandson, Zijun, jumped off the bed and said, "I'm going to go out for a walk. You should rest first."
Yi Xichen: “…Okay.”
As soon as the eldest grandson, Zijun, walked out of the door, a basin of ice water fell from the sky and poured all over his head. Just to resist the urge to rush over had already used up all his self-control, and this was the difference between him and Yi Xichen. Yi Xichen might have been confused for a short time, even confused, but he was not.
He believed that Yi Xichen really liked him, just like Youyun also liked Hu Zang, but when he met someone who really moved him, he would leave without looking back. Rather than having such a day, he might as well pretend that the eight years of "demon barrier" had never happened, and continue to get along with Yi Xichen as before. Perhaps, the world should be like this.
The eldest grandson, Jun, went downstairs and heard Gao Tianzhu losing his temper.
"What's wrong with you? You are sword cultivators, but you can't even catch an alchemy cultivator!"
"That Dan Xiu was so abominable. I almost caught him, but he actually let his monster die in his place, which is why he escaped..."
"Alright! Now that our Hongmeng sect knows that someone is practicing this evil way, we will not sit idly by! If you find any trace of that Dan Xiu, come and tell me, and I will take care of him!"
The eldest grandson, Zijun, frowned. He didn't expect that even with so many people chasing him, the beast-master still managed to escape. However, although his cultivation was not profound, his methods were very vicious. It would be difficult to kill the master if one had a kind heart. If one wanted to save those monsters, one had to find a way to break his evil magic first.
The eldest grandson, Jun, was just thinking about it, but he didn't think he had to take care of this trivial matter. The Sea of Nothingness was about to be released, and he would not delay his search for the Lord of Nothingness for other things.
The eldest grandson, Jun, came down the stairs. When Gao Tianzhu saw him, he immediately looked at him with hostility.
The eldest grandson, Zijun, ignored him and walked past him. Suddenly, Gao Tianzhu called out from behind him, "Eldest grandson, Zijun!"
The eldest grandson Jun walked out of the inn without stopping.
Gao Tianzhu whispered behind him: "No response? Is this guy the eldest grandson Zijun..."
The night in Evil City was not pitch black. Three miles southeast of the city was the edge of the Sea of Nothingness. There were thunderstorms day and night, and the dazzling lightning illuminated the entire land of darkness and death, as bright as day.
The eldest grandson, Jun, walked slowly towards the southeast.
In the room, Yi Xichen lay on his back, in a daze for a while, then he raised his hand and touched his lips. Did I kiss her just now? Did I not kiss her? Did I touch her for a few moments? Did I not touch her at all...
"Ahhhhhhh!" Yi Xichen rolled around on the bed, covering his face, his cheeks burning. What?! If a kiss can tell the difference...then at least give it a kiss and let me feel it first!! Maybe a kiss will make it the same!! It's not the same...let's talk about it later!!
The eldest grandson, Jun, has already left Evil City. The closer you get to the Sea of Nothingness, the more severe the disturbance of thunder and wind becomes. The reason why Evil City was built three miles from the sea is because the thunder and wind storms have been greatly weakened beyond three miles, to a level that ordinary people can bear.
The eldest grandson, Jun, walked to a distance of two miles from the sea and stopped.
Two days later, the Sea of Nothingness will be opened. The thunderstorm will not stop, but it will be weakened to one third of the past, which is roughly the same as the disturbance he is experiencing now.
Even he himself didn't know how deep his cultivation was now. According to his confused memory, he should have formed a golden elixir, but he had the power of the golden elixir but couldn't feel his own golden elixir. So for the sake of safety tomorrow, he might as well give it a try.
He felt it silently for a while, and suddenly heard someone behind him calling, "Grandson Zijun."
This time, the eldest grandson Zijun turned around and said, "Disciple has seen Master Hong Yi."
Under the illumination of the thunderbolt, Master Hong Yi's face showed a look of joy and anger that was hard to tell: "It is you indeed."
The eldest grandson, Jun, remained noncommittal.
Master Hong Yi said, "After we parted, I heard that the Heaven Sword Sect had accepted a young man with a natural spiritual root, and I knew it was you, but how...what's the matter with the Heaven Sword Sect's wanted order? Did you kill the elder of the Heaven Sword Sect? Is this true?"
The eldest grandson, Zijun, said calmly, "Does the real person believe it?"
Master Hong Yi was speechless for a moment. He did not expose Chang Sunzi Jun in public because he did not believe it. Although he had met Chang Sunzi Jun more than ten years ago, Chang Sunzi Jun's appearance had not changed much in the past ten years. However, since he asked the question, he hoped that Chang Sunzi Jun could give an explanation, but Chang Sunzi Jun's answer made it clear that he was unwilling to explain.
Master Hong Yi had no choice but to ask, "Where's your sister?"
"Dead."
Master Hong Yi was stunned: "Ah..." Obviously, his eldest grandson Zijun still did not intend to explain.
Master Hong Yi was rather helpless, and asked again: "Why did you come to Evil Hua City? Is there someone here that you are looking for?"
The eldest grandson, Zijun, said, "Yes. The Master of Void."
Master Hong Yi was immediately surprised. Those who came to Evil Hua City at this time were either looking for masters like him, or masters like him were looking for the Master of the Void Sect. But Chang Sunzi Jun... Although he had long known that Chang Sunzi Jun was a natural spiritual root, Chang Sunzi Jun was barely 20 years old this year! No matter how gifted he was, there had to be a limit!
Master Hong Yi's expression twisted slightly: "You? You want to break into the void?"
"Um."
"With whom? Is there anyone to protect you?" In addition to the powerful thunderstorm, there are also many ferocious beasts at the entrance of the Void Realm. If there is a powerful companion, it is not impossible to get through. For example, he came to Evil City just to escort his beloved disciple into the Void Realm.
"Yi Xichen."
Master Hong Yi's expression twisted again: "The one next to you? The kid who just established his foundation? You and him? The two of you entered the Sea of Nothingness?" At the end, his voice cracked.
The eldest grandson, Zijun, glanced at him, then suddenly jumped onto the sword and flew another mile to the southeast. After flying one mile, he was only one mile away from the edge of the Void Sea. He felt a little uncomfortable, so he turned back and landed next to Master Hong Yi again.
Master Hong Yi had a complicated expression: "You...you actually...how could you...you are clearly not even 20 years old..." The closer you get to the sea, the greater the threat of the thunderstorm. The fact that the eldest grandson Jun could get close to within a mile of the sea was enough to prove that his cultivation was very profound. On the opening day, the thunderstorm weakened, and he was able to deal with it.
It was already very late and having experienced the intensity of the thunderstorm, the eldest grandson Jun decided to go back.
Master Hong Yi called him from behind: "Young friend Changsun, my disciple was rude, please don't bother with him. He was originally a good boy, but... his spiritual roots have changed. Alas!"
The so-called spiritual root mutation is not the same as the mutated spiritual root. Yi Xichen was born with a mutated spiritual root, but was sealed by the Heavenly Fire. Gao Tianzhu originally had a single golden spiritual root, and there were signs of mutation in the middle of his life. It is hard to say what kind of physique he will become after the mutation. There is a one in ten million chance that he will become a heavenly spiritual root, or a three-yang body or an ice spiritual root. However, his single golden spiritual root is originally a good qualification, so he is more likely to mutate into a mixed spiritual root or even a false spiritual root. In this way, his cultivation will also be considered to have come to an end. It is no wonder that Gao Tianzhu, as the eldest disciple of the Hongmeng Sect, is so arrogant. It turns out that his mood is already unbalanced.
The eldest grandson, Jun, just hummed, indicating that he was not interested.
With thunder rumbling behind him, the eldest grandson Jun jumped onto the flying sword and went back to the inn.
Another day passed in the blink of an eye, and after another night, it was the opening day of the Sea of Nothingness. At midnight, the thunderstorm that had been raging for ten years finally began to weaken, and the night of Evil City was no longer as bright as day. But even so, the streets were bustling with people. In a few hours, the thunderstorm would be the weakest in ten years. Those who wanted to cross the Sea of Nothingness would prepare to set off, and for the monks who wanted to visit the masters, it would be the last chance.
