Chapter 165: The Danger of the Desperate Palace
Chu Lingjiao said: "That's it, the two of you will stay for the time being, and then I will send my junior sister to send some supplies to the two of you." Then he turned and walked away.
Xiao Chen didn't listen to what she was talking about, as if his soul had wandered outside his body, he gently pushed open the wooden fence, every flower and tree in the yard, every house and tile, and a piece of Xiangfei tear bamboo in the corner of the south courtyard, all of them were so familiar, as if once upon a time, they really came here.
Reaching out and touching the little tears on the bamboo, it seemed that the laughter and laughter of the past here sounded in his ears, as if he saw the scene when Weiyang and himself danced the sword in the bamboo forest, but when he reached out and touched it, all the illusions disappeared completely.
"Weiyang!" he shouted in the language of thousands of years ago, running forward desperately, reaching out to grab something, but he could never reach the depths of his memory, the figure that glimpsed in shock, only the bamboo leaves, rustling when the wind blew.
Li Muxue saw that his behavior was extremely strange, and asked softly, "What's wrong with you?"
Xiao Chen came back to his senses and shook his head, even if Weiyang really came here thousands of years ago, but thousands of years have passed, and goodbye is far away, sighing lightly, he walked to the cliff outside the courtyard, facing the cold wind blowing up from the bottom of the mountain, and said softly: "The sun is setting, and the cliff ......is broken."
Li Muxue walked behind him, he had never seen him so sad, maybe the heart of the man in front of him had never walked in.
"You have a past in your heart that you don't want to talk about, and there is someone you can never forget, right?" she asked softly.
Xiao Chen turned around and said softly: "I'm sorry, Mu Xue, she is irreplaceable in this world......"
I still remember that after Weiyang blocked the fatal blow for himself, he fell into his arms, still saying: "You still owe me one last thing...... That is, I want you to live well......"
I still remember that when she jumped off the burial immortal cliff, she whispered: "If there is an afterlife, you are not a disciple of Xuanqingmen, and I am not the daughter of the Demon Emperor, and at that time, we will go to see the fine water and the long stream together, and watch the dusk and sunset together......"
"What if I take the Forgetful Love Pill, even if thousands of years have passed? I can't forget! I can't forget!" A mournful roar echoed in the valley, and every word was like a sharp knife piercing Li Muxue's heart.
She knew that the person in Xiao Chen's mouth would never be herself, but she couldn't watch the other party's grief-stricken appearance at this moment, took a step forward, and said softly: "Brother Xiao......"
Xiao Chen took a deep breath, walked towards her, gently hugged her on his shoulders, and whispered: "I'm sorry, Mu Xue, you will never be more important than her, but you will always be more important than my life......"
With a light breeze, the sideburns of the two were entangled, like an unfinished fate in the past life, and it will continue in this life.
After a while, the two disciples of the Desperate Palace sent some supplies and instructed him to wait here for the two of them, and not to walk around in the valley at will.
Xiao Chen agreed, and immediately walked to the house with two quilts, the furnishings in the house were minimal, a small wooden table, a small bed, and a piano seat on the couch, tidying up this house, and then went to the next door to clean up another hut.
After working for nearly an hour, when it was dark, and an oil lamp in the house was flickering, Xiao Chen told Li Muxue to rest, so he went back to his room, collapsed at the head of the bed, and fell asleep after a short time.
It was about the third watch, suddenly felt a chill hit the house, Xiao Chen opened his eyes in a daze, it turned out that he forgot to close the window before going to bed, at the moment it was hazy outside, like a layer of light smoke and mist, and now there was no sleep, so he gently got off the bed, opened the door and walked to the courtyard.
The mist in the courtyard was lightly shrouded, and only a thin sound could be heard from the corner of the south courtyard, Xiao Chen paced over gently, it turned out that the wind was blowing the bamboo leaves and making a rustling sound, sighed lightly, and sat down on the ground.
After calming his mind, he immediately activated the Xuanqing Exercises, impacting the various meridians, and a pale white true qi flowed in his body, but there was always a trace of invisible black true qi lurking beside him, which could swallow the white true qi at any time.
After an hour like this, Xiao Chen opened his eyes, and now that his cultivation was stagnant at the ninth layer of the foundation, it seemed that it was difficult to break through this shackle and enter the Jiedan realm, only by truly entering the Jiedan realm, maybe he could be fully called a young powerhouse in the world.
Although the decisive battle with Guanshan Ancestor is imminent, this is not what he is most worried about at the moment, what he is most worried about is Qianyumen, he always feels that Qianyumen has some ulterior purpose, this time Guanshan Ancestor's resurrection is in the Purple Mansion and is in an uproar, most likely Xiaoyue is behind the scenes.
The thoughts in his mind were chaotic, he didn't want to think too much, got up and went back to the room, he was woken up by a noise in the early morning, only to see Li Muxue push the door in, and said hurriedly: "Oh no, there seems to be an accident in the Desperate Palace!"
Xiao Chen immediately turned over and went to the outside of the courtyard, looking around, he saw the figure of the Desperate Palace shaking, in addition to many disciples of the Desperate Palace, there were also many people in strange costumes, it seemed that there was a foreign invasion.
"Let's go, go over and have a look. At that moment, he immediately pulled Li Muxue over there.
When they got closer, they saw three people at the head, one of whom was over fifty years old and armed with a long sword. One of them had to be white, holding a skull cane, and the other was dressed as a Taoist, but with an evil spirit.
These three people are the famous Changchun Sanren, Dingshan old monster, and evil Taoist people nearby, only to see the old monster of Dingshan looking up and smiling: "Everyone knows that "Ruthless Xuanjian" is a book of exercises handed down from ancient times, and it is said that we should share it, but your master takes it for himself, and he doesn't say it, but he still occupies the pit and doesn't, if you don't hand over this secret book today, grandpa will kill you all!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he pointed at the skull staff in his hand, and two red rays shot out of the skull's eyes, taking the life of a disciple of the Desperate Palace, and the rest of them were all shocked when they saw this.
Xiao Chen's heart sank, the cultivation of these three people was far from being comparable to the two of them yesterday, and the ruthless Xuanjian that the other party said seemed to be some kind of ancient exercise.
Chu Lingjiao's heart was cold, the master had indeed found such a secret book here, but she never practiced the profound exercises recorded in it, nor did she allow any disciples to practice, but it attracted many people from the outside world to covet it, all along, this has always been a hidden danger in the Desperate Palace, and there have been many people who have committed it in the past, but all of them have been destroyed, at this moment the master is seriously injured and has not come out of retreat, but how is it good?
At that moment, she took more than ten disciples to form a sword formation, and said coldly: "You are so bold!"
"Haha!" Ding Shan's old monster raised his head and smiled: "Don't be bold, how dare you come to the Desperate Palace!" At the end of the words, the skull staff pointed at her, and two red rays shot out, Xiao Chen hurriedly urged the spell, the innocent sword was immediately in his hand, the horizontal sword was swept away, and a sword qi shot out, and the two red rays were immediately dissolved.
Many people here already knew that Xiao Chen had shown his might yesterday and defeated the Northern Evil Twin Evils, and they were all relieved to see him rush to support him at this moment.
