Senior Brother Mu Xue and his sisters were sitting in a side room of a tavern in Fuwang City.
Although everyone had some injuries and bandages on their bodies, everyone was in a good mood at the moment. Thinking of the various bizarre encounters and the various gains and efforts along the way, I couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.
"I have to go back tomorrow, and I'm really reluctant to leave." Lin Yin drank a few glasses and got a little tipsy. He shook the empty wine bottle and muttered, "The wine is gone. Ask the waiter to bring some more."
Ding Lanlan advised: "Take it easy, the prices here are not cheap. Everyone has very few spirit stones left, be careful not to have enough spirit stones to pay the bill when you leave."
Mu Xue smiled and said, "It's okay. I still have some spirit stones left. I'll treat you all to this meal, so just drink as much as you can."
Lin Yin's eyes lit up: "Really? How many spirit stones do you have left? I have to go back tomorrow, and I still have a lot of food I want to eat."
Mu Xue was grateful to everyone for risking their lives to enter Huanximen to save her. She also took advantage of the huge fortune that Cen Qianshan had shared with her. She turned the bright red ring on her finger and called the waiter up.
"Serve all the specialties in the restaurant and order the best wine."
The companions cheered excitedly.
"Invite a few more ladies who can sing and men who can play music to help with the fun." Mu Xue pulled the second brother aside and handed him a handful of spirit stones. "We need the top ladies and men who can sing and play the best music in the music school."
Lin Yin and Ding Lanlan held hands and almost screamed, "Xiaoxue, you are great. I never knew you were this kind of person."
"So I think that when you look at a person, you really can't just look at the surface, and you can't just listen to hearsay." Cheng Yan also drank a little too much, holding up the glass and standing up,
"Back when we were on the mountain, I always thought Junior Brother Zhuo was aloof and arrogant. After getting to know him, I found out that I was totally wrong." He raised his glass to Zhuo Yu, "After getting to know him, I realized that Junior Brother is a passionate and kind-hearted man. Senior Brother, I was wrong. I apologize to you here."
Zhuo Yu was not used to such a lively atmosphere. He raised his glass, clinked it with his, and drank it without saying a word.
"Also, I also thought that Junior Sister Xiaoxue was a flower in the mountains, not concerned with worldly affairs." Cheng Yan raised his glass to Mu Xue again, "But I never thought that a girl like you could be so righteous, regardless of life and death, to save the people. I am ashamed of myself, so I toast to you."
Mu Xue drank a glass of wine with him and waved her hand, "It's not what you said, brother. There is no one in this world who doesn't care about life and death. I can't sacrifice myself for others. It's just that the situation happened to be in front of me, and I can't retreat. I believe that if it were my brothers and sisters, they would do the same as me."
Xiao Changge recalled how he had just rushed into the colorful jade gatehouse left by Mu Xue and directly confronted the demon Xu Kun. He was still frightened. "The demon is too powerful. Fortunately, the altar in the city was destroyed in time, allowing him to retreat back into the void. Otherwise, not only would we all die here, but Fuwang City would also be devastated."
"Yes, luckily he retreated, otherwise even if we were to join forces, we wouldn't be his match. We'll go back tomorrow, and we probably won't run into that devil again."
"If this happens again in the future, Xiaoxue, you must not hide it from us anymore."
"It's fine for us brothers and sisters, but I feel a little guilty that every time I cause Master Cen to get hurt along with us. Before I leave tomorrow, I should find him and say goodbye."
"By the way, why didn't Mr. Cen come to eat with us? When he came out of the clinic, I saw him with a stern face and he just left. He didn't seem very happy."
"Mr. Cen's personality is a bit peculiar, but no matter what, he has rescued and helped us many times along the way. He is really a very good person."
Everyone was talking about Cen Qianshan in a lively manner under the influence of alcohol. Mu Xue thought of the back of the man who left Uncle Nian's clinic without saying a word and left alone, and she felt a little uneasy in her heart.
In the yard where light snow was falling, Qianji slipped out of the house.
"How is it?" the little girl asked him quietly.
Qianji made a helpless gesture with his hands, "It's useless. He won't listen to my advice. He just sits there alone, not saying a word. He just holds his pendant and plays with it over and over again."
Xiaoya sighed: "What should I do?"
"I'm almost dying of worry for him." Qianji stamped his feet and said, "Mr. Mu will be returning to the Immortal Spirit World tomorrow, but the master doesn't even know how to cherish tonight and came back alone to get angry."
The two little ones in the yard were almost worried sick about their owner.
Qianji took out the human behavior research report and wrote a line on it: How should we deal with the situation when a man in love is making trouble
At the end of the sentence, there was a big question mark.
Just at this moment, there was a slight noise on the courtyard wall, and a familiar head popped out from there.
This courtyard has been improved by two generations of weapon masters and has a high-strength defense system. If a visitor knocks on the main door improperly and attempts to break in from a high altitude, it is almost an impossible task.
But it was obvious that the person who came here was very familiar with the various protective gear here. With one arm injured and in a bandage, she easily cracked the mechanism with just one hand, climbed over the wall, and tiptoed into the courtyard.
She saw Qianji and Erya and was not panicked. She just made a silent inquiring expression.
Ji and Erya quickly stretched out their hands and pointed her in the direction of Cen Qianshan.
It was already dark, and there was no light in the house.
The man sat alone on the small wooden bed, using the faint snow light coming in through the window, and repeatedly played with the red dragon pendant in his hand. I don't know what he was anxiously thinking about.
Mu Xue walked quietly behind him and covered the man's eyes with one hand. She could almost see that the tiny hairs on the back of the man's neck stood up.
"I'm injured and it hurts everywhere. Can you practice with me? This way I can get better faster."
She leaned over his back and bit his neck gently with her teeth. She covered his eyes with one hand to prevent him from struggling, "Go to my Huangting this time."
So, she saw the man who was still angry but whose neck turned red after being kissed by her, and nodded helplessly.
In the dimly lit room, Mu Xue held Cen Qianshan's hand and silently recited the formula of the Great Joy Secret Method.
"The most mysterious of the mysteries, the most heavenly of the heavens, the moving snow chamber, the thousand-liquid mountain springs, the Huagai above, the Crimson Palace below."
Along with the chanting of the spell, the scenery in Mu Xue's Huangting changed. A towering canopy descended from the sky and a golden dome-shaped cave rose from the ground.
Outside the house, the waves were rippling, and the sun and moon were shining in the sky. Inside the house, there were red gauze curtains, heavy curtains, fragrant couches with soft pillows, and dragons and tigers sitting in rows.
It is the time when thousands of mountains reflect the water and tigers are captured in the snow.
Cen Qianshan found that his soul was lying in a warm and fragrant red gauze tent. A white tiger passed through the heavy curtains, came up to him and licked him affectionately with its tongue.
Just as he was about to dodge, the red dragon wrapped around him and tightly bound his hands.
"Don't move, this is a step in the practice." Mu Xue sat next to him and said seriously.
Cen Qianshan believed it and had to grit his teeth and endure in the messy curtains in the Huangting, allowing the dragon and the tiger to team up and do whatever they wanted to him. He resisted the electric shock feeling, and the more he was restrained and suppressed, the easier it was for him to fall into the vortex of happiness.
Until the dragon and tiger merged into one, becoming the appearance of Mu Xue, leaning over and kissing him gently. Before he could speak out the complaints and grief that had been stuck in his heart, they turned into soft water and were washed away in the dense and turbulent joy.
The house is full of spring, and in the courtyard,
Qianji carefully added the newly observed answers in his little notebook.
For those who are in love, there is nothing that cannot be solved by practicing together once. If there is, then practice twice.
After several rain clouds, the dragon and tiger gradually rested.
Next to Mu Xue, Cen Qianshan was lying on the bed, his long, sweaty hair sticking to his tight skin, his neck still red. He buried his face in the pillow, refusing to look up at her.
Mu Xue pulled one of his arms, unwound the white bandage wrapped around it, and gently stroked the criss-crossing scars.
During the long period of time, every time Cen Qianshan opened the Netherworld Soul Gathering Formation, he would cut his arm and offer blood as a sacrifice, leaving a deep cross scar on his skin.
"I got some ointment from Uncle Nian that can remove old scars." Mu Xue's fingers slid across the old wounds. "In the future, when we practice dual cultivation, I will remove one scar for you, okay?"
Cen Qianshan, who was buried in the pillow, turned his head and looked at her. The love deep in his eyes was really heart-warming.
When facing the demon just now, he was still gritting his teeth and demanding blood debts from others. But now in front of me, why is he so soft and easy to be bullied
He wanted to ask himself if he could stay in the Demonic Spirit Realm, and when their next meeting would be.
Mu Xue certainly understood what Cen Qianshan was most worried about and afraid of, but was unwilling to ask.
She and Xiaoshan lay on the small wooden bed together and took out a small colorful jade doorplate.
"Do you know what the greatest function of this Joy Gate is?" Mu Xue handed the small artifact in her hand to Cen Qianshan to see, "It allows you to cross space and reach your loved one at any time."
As soon as these words fell, stars instantly appeared in Cen Qianshan's eyes.
"Originally, I was thinking that after I returned to my master's sect, I would use this gatehouse to come back to find you. But thanks to you, my cultivation level has greatly increased since I came to the Demon Spirit Realm this time. It is very likely that I will go to the mine to save gold and condense the golden elixir soon after I return."
"I specialize in forming a golden elixir. The time it takes to form a golden elixir varies, from a few days to several years. I try my best to stabilize my state for a long time under the protection of my teacher. I am afraid that you will be anxious waiting, so I thought of leaving this to you." Mu Xue put the priceless artifact into Cen Qianshan's hand, "If you miss me, come to the fairy world to find me. You and I have the same origin and practice dual cultivation, so you should be able to drive this door."
Cen Qianshan looked at the colorful magic weapon in his hand. He had been worried about gains and losses these days, and the thing that worried him most was that Mu Xue would go back.
The immortals and demons are separated by a ten-year gap, and it is difficult for them to meet. He never expected that Mu Xue had not only found a way, but was also willing to hand the initiative to him. She was even willing to lend him such a precious magic weapon.
He held the small gate tower in his palm and wanted to say, there is no need to do this, I will just wait for you to come to me, even if it takes a thousand or a hundred years, I can wait.
But I felt so sad in my heart that I couldn't say such simple words.
If I hadn’t seen Master before, I could have endured many years. But now that I have seen Master, I find even a moment of separation unbearable.
Mu Xue half-jokingly said, "I heard that before ordinary couples get married, they have to give each other a token of love as a betrothal gift. This will be my betrothal gift to you. When you come to me, return it to me."
Cen Qianshan closed his palms, held the colorful jade in his hands, and hummed softly.
