[Phoenix in flight]: It is a metaphor for the joy and love between a couple.
A series of earth-shattering events have occurred in the Six Realms recently.
First, there were constant strange phenomena in the sky, and several immortals were expelled from their immortal positions or died one after another. Of course, the most eye-catching one was the leader of Yunxian Sect, who was executed on the spot by the Immortal Court. A long list of his crimes was made known to the world. Now the Yunxian Sect is in chaos, and even the conference that was supposed to be held has been cancelled.
Counting Ren Tianzun's crimes, it was then that the Six Realms suddenly realized: the person they had always admired was actually a heinous devil! Even the Demon King and the Demon King were framed by his treacherous plot and lost their lives in vain.
Yes, the Demon King and the Demon King, this is another topic that ignited the six worlds after succeeding Tianzun.
In fact, the story of the two people has been circulated in folk drama scripts for a long time. They were either demonized or deified. Almost everyone can tell a different process - of course the result is exactly the same. The two fell off the cliff and died. Isn’t the Demon King’s Tomb under construction
However, unexpectedly, the two are now getting married.
Resurrection from the dead - this is a saying given by the immortal world. The general idea is that the demon king has practiced hard for a hundred years, has completed his merits, and has been recognized by heaven. Moreover, Ren Tianzun was dead and returned the two people's stolen cultivation base, helping them to reshape their bodies, and then they were able to return.
No matter what the explanation is, the ending is dramatic: the demon king who even has his tomb is not only resurrected, but also his lover achieves enlightenment and even gets married.
Regardless of the authenticity of the news. The world is happy that the model Taoist couple who has been passed down for so many years has achieved enlightenment.
And because Xianting personally rectified his name, a "tide of two kings" set off in the six realms - those who make sculptures, make prints, and build temples, springing up like mushrooms after a rain. The people were so enthusiastic that even the Immortal Court was unexpected.
People who cultivate immortality must not only rely on themselves, but also rely on the beliefs of the outside world. These rising buildings have become channels of faith, so the two people at the center of the topic have once again greatly improved their cultivation, and they are in an indescribably good mood.
However, there are still problems.
The first time she saw her cave, Qiao Xiyin was deeply aware of it.
"Where's the shark bead I hung on the plaque?"
The Ghost King's voice was weak: "In the tomb."
She walked in again, asking all the way, "Where is my red emerald coral? Where is my moon brocade? Don't tell me that you even put that painting in?"
Ghost King: "...Probably so."
Qiao Xiyin looked up at the sky: "Am I really that poor??"
Can you actually bankrupt your family by building a tomb? QAQ...
He Yunchao suppressed a smile and said, "Xiao Hei actually did a good job. The tomb is very luxurious."
"Then you go and stay." Qiao Xiyin glanced at him.
He Yunchao: "..."
He chose not to talk to her.
Except for a few missing items, everything in the cave was no different from what she remembered. The only thing I'm not used to is that compared to the past, there are no attendants here and it's very deserted.
"I dealt with all the traitors and didn't let anyone in anymore. I just asked people to clean it regularly," the Ghost King explained. "I think you don't want to be disturbed by them either."
Qiao Xiyin nodded lightly: "It will be like this in the future."
Yes, she suddenly didn't like the excitement in the cave.
When she returned to her almost-empty room, her mood that had been fluctuating suddenly calmed down.
The Ghost King stared at his toes tremblingly. Qiao Xiyin took a deep breath and said calmly: "Go call someone."
Ghost King: "Your Highness, please give me your orders!"
"Move everything in this room in my tomb back:)"
She didn't even expect to move anything else, especially the things embedded in the wall, but the room couldn't be demolished!
The Ghost King nodded hurriedly.
This matter has been settled for now.
This is just the beginning - more headaches are to come.
Qiao Xiyin's cave was evacuated, but He Yunchao's was safe and sound. If he hadn't taken her there, she wouldn't have known that He Yunchao was here - even the Ghost King couldn't find where he put the money.
She shook the red rope on her wrist and said thoughtfully: "I know."
It's time to consider changing to a Taoist companion.
He Yunchao held her hand and said with a smile, "It's all yours. This is the betrothal gift."
Her interest was still weak.
"Qiaoqiao," he gently played with her fingers, "let's get married."
The marriage he talked about was a real marriage.
Qiao Xiyin returned to her demon king's throne and was lazily listening to the demon general below reporting on the situation in the demon world over the years when He Yunchao came with his people.
There were a hundred and eighty-eight betrothal gifts, and the main hall of the Demon Palace could not accommodate them. The red carpet was spread all the way to the steps outside the palace. This was the first time that the Demon Palace was so red. The surrounding demon generals and ministers were shocked. Stayed.
He skipped the three rituals of nacai, asking for names, and naji, and went directly to the fourth step.
A fox clan member stood in front and read out a long list of betrothal gifts for an hour. Both the Highness and the Highness were stunned. It was Qiao Xiyin who waved to them to take the betrothal gifts back, thus easing the silence. .
"Your Highness," the young man raised his head and smiled narrowly, "Please take a look."
Qiao Xiyin: "... Your subordinates have worked hard."
She was a little embarrassed.
Previously, He Yunchao only told the world about this matter. She never thought that he was really so concerned about it.
Not only in the demon world, this kind of folk marriage custom is rare in the entire world of immortality. When people in the world of cultivating immortals fall in love, the most they can do is hold a double cultivating ceremony, which is considered to be a Taoist couple. This kind of wedding would only be held between mortals without spiritual power.
Mortal life is short, so a once-in-a-lifetime wedding is naturally grand and cherished. Immortal cultivators are different. They have a long lifespan, and looking for a Taoist companion is more about finding a practicing partner, who may change frequently, so they no longer care much about rituals.
But who doesn’t like the feeling of being cherished
Qiao Xiyin also likes it.
The sixth day of June is a good time to get married.
The Demon King and the Demon King got married, and for the first time the door from the upper three realms to the lower three realms opened without any obstruction. The lights are noisy, the majesty is displayed, the bamboo flutes are played, and the streets are filled with chariots and horses. The six realms seem to be strung together into a whole, engaging in a sleepless carnival.
It's a busy place here, and the one who suffers the most is the Ghost King.
As the only person who was formerly a mortal and got married, the Ghost King undoubtedly became the planner of the wedding. However, that was all hundreds of thousands of years ago, and he himself knew nothing about it. He read local customs and local chronicles everywhere, and even went to the human world to inquire about information, and almost lost all his hair.
Both men and women like to torment him. First, He Yunchao came to him to count the betrothal gift list and asked him frequently if it was not enough. He wished he could move the entire palace to Qiao Xiyin. Then Qiao Xiyin asked him if he wanted to prepare some gifts to send over, saying that he had seen the world. As a gift to Dayan in marriage, she tied up Quanbao and sent him to He Yunchao's mansion, which made Quanbao so autistic that he has not shown up yet. After finally serving this ancestor, He Yunchao called him to guide the decoration of the new house...
He exhaled a breath, his face was full of vicissitudes of life, and he felt that his future was bleak.
At dusk, the wedding officially took place. In front of the Demon Palace, the wedding honor guards stood on both sides. The red color stretched all the way to the point where the sight disappeared, and there were bustling crowds on both sides. This road will lead from the demon world to the demon world.
People who grabbed the front row were finally lucky enough to get a glimpse of the true appearance of the Demon King - a young man riding a cloud horse, wearing a red dress and a black-breasted wedding dress, decorated with a lifelike pattern of two dragons holding beads, and the deep love in his peach blossom eyes was wider than the sea.
Logically speaking, before entering the Devil's Palace, the groom should be made things difficult for him, commonly known as "the son-in-law". Then he went to the hall to bow to his father-in-law, and welcomed the bride out amidst the urging of others. However, the two of them were in a special situation. They had no high places to go to and nothing to worship, so they simply skipped this step. Furthermore, even the people on the sidelines don’t have the guts to make things difficult for the Demon King!
So, surrounded by people, the bride Qiao Xiyin walked out of the gate of the magic palace smoothly.
Compared to the Demon King, the Demon King is much more high-profile among the six realms, and there are rumors about her appearance among the people. Nowadays, she does not wear a hijab. She holds a red satin fan and covers her face nonchalantly. But when you step out alone, you will be filled with nobility.
The first thing that attracted attention was the phoenix crown.
In the front is a golden phoenix with only pearls in it, its wings spread out and ready to fly, with nine golden silk threads hanging down. Not only that, there were two strands falling from both sides, each with six strands, all of which were slender golden wires.
After one phoenix took the lead, eight more golden phoenixes spread out to both sides, like the tail feathers of a phoenix spreading its wings. On the sides of the phoenix, nine golden dragons are carved, intertwined with the phoenix and flying. The dragon eyes, dragon scales, phoenix eyes and phoenix feathers are all decorated with pearls, gems and flower mother-of-pearls, seeming to soar among the jeweled flowers and leaves.
Under the phoenix crown is the wedding dress.
Cranes, auspicious clouds, dragons and phoenixes, parallel lotuses... countless luxurious patterns that symbolize beauty and auspiciousness are embellished with gold and silver threads, jewelry and pearls, and are embroidered on the wedding dress in circles.
As for the Xiapei, it is decorated with five-color tassels, open like a phoenix tail and wrapped around the shoulders. In front of the neck is a necklace made of agate, pearls and rubies, with a lotus-shaped longevity lock tied at the end.
Qiao Xiyin rarely wears red.
But this time, she was covered in gold and red from head to toe. The gold is brilliant and the red is bright, as if there is no more beautiful scenery in the world.
Her mood was that of a spectator. The hand holding the fan trembled slightly, and her eyes filled with warmth.
The wedding dress is originally embroidered by the woman herself, stitch by stitch. Qiao Xiyin has to be cared for in her daily life, so doing needlework is simply out of the ordinary. It was He Yunchao who sent someone to deliver it before the wedding. Many people were present at that time. As soon as the door of the box was opened, their eyes were dazzled by the pearly aura of this box.
"Actually, I made preparations before I left," he said with a smile, "Sister Xiao Qiao, are you not fat?"
It was impossible to be fat, Qiao Xiyin even wanted to beat him.
The only bad thing is that this wedding dress is too heavy - the phoenix crown alone weighs dozens of kilograms, like holding a carton of milk on your head. Fortunately, as a cultivator, I still have a few tricks, so I won't be so miserable walking with milk on my head.
He Yunchao was not just one person riding a cloud horse.
He brought a sedan chair with him.
There are thirty-six bearers on the sedan chair. On the sedan chair is the Chinese character "囍" carved in gold. Colored ropes, colored lanterns, gold thread and gold hollow flower carvings are as gorgeous as a wedding dress.
The Ghost King walked in front and carried Qiao Xiyin onto the sedan chair.
The honor guards on both sides beat gongs and drums and blew suonas. Several children held flower baskets and scattered golden beans and golden peanuts to both sides. People sighed in admiration - this demon king and devil king must be too rich!
It's a pity that no one will rob the tomb of the Two Kings anymore.
From the devil world to the demon world, Qiao Xiyin has walked this road many times. However, it was the first time that thirty-six people carried the sedan to welcome him in. She had never felt that this road was so long, step by step, there was the sound of congratulations in her ears, and the entire six realms seemed to be sending blessings to them.
The Demon King's Mansion was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and it seemed to be more lively than the Demon Realm.
When the sedan chair stopped, He Yunqiao dismounted, lifted up the curtain, and took Qiao Xiyin out of the sedan chair.
The wedding invitations were sent to the Immortal Courtyard. Looking at the guests in this room, Qiao Xiyin unexpectedly discovered that someone really came to the Immortal Courtyard, but it was not the Emperor of Heaven himself.
There was a boy beside her who was singing verses in a clear tone. Qiao Xiyin smiled and handed over the fan, holding the red silk in one hand, bowing to He Yunqiao, and drank the Hexin wine in one gulp.
The Ghost King said loudly: "The ceremony is completed—"
There was applause both inside and outside.
The two were carried into the new house.
This is a sea of red. The wedding bed is strewn with five-color concentric flowers and fruits, and the quilt is covered with mandarin ducks in pairs.
The people around him retreated quietly.
He Yunchao stretched out his hand, tucked the tassel on her head behind her ears without haste, and kissed her forehead: "I'm marrying you."
***
The two met much earlier than Qiao Xiyin remembered.
He Yunchao is a fox demon, and the most precious bloodline among fox demons, the nine-tailed celestial fox.
The nine-tailed celestial fox clan has a single lineage and has been destined to be the king of the fox clan since ancient times. However, the nine-tailed sky fox was too precious, resulting in a thin population in the clan. He Yunchao's father died under the greedy sword of a cultivator.
His parents had a very deep relationship. After learning about his father's death, his mother followed him early, leaving behind the young He Yunchao.
At that time, he had not yet transformed, just a little furry dumpling. Although he has been extremely talented since childhood, he was unable to fight back under the control of the fox clan elders who were eyeing him.
After many twists and turns, he finally escaped from the demon world and fell into the human world. However, he was seriously injured at this time, and if his bloodline was discovered, he would still be dead.
It was at this time that he met Qiao Xiyin.
He lay down on the eaves of Qiao's backyard to take a nap - the place he accidentally discovered at this time, almost no one came back here, and the guards were only two or three young maids, whose spiritual roots were of the lowest level and were not enough for him. threatening. It is unimaginable that the Qiao family, a wealthy cultivator of immortality, would have such a deserted and deserted place.
It's just that he was too seriously injured, and he didn't even have the strength to jump down, let alone go to Qiao's house to steal the elixir.
A pair of soft little hands picked him up.
She was a little girl, who looked to be only eleven or twelve years old. She had a double braid, and the two braids were thin and soft, very cute.
The little girl took a few bricks to prop her feet up, stepped on them tremblingly, stretched out her arms to reach the eaves, and carefully picked him up. During this period, she almost fell down and grabbed his fox tail, causing He Yunchao to almost jump up and bite her.
He had seen everything in the world since he was a child, and he didn't believe in any true feelings, so when the little girl landed, he did exactly that and bit the little girl's wrist.
The delicate and soft little girl was naturally afraid of pain, her eyes were red, but she said no evil words: "You... are you in pain?"
She carefully lifted his tail, He Yun glanced out of the corner of his eye and only saw the red on her wrist. The tip of the tail was wrapped around her wrist, and the red point was her own blood.
He lay down weakly and did not leave her. Now he can't even scare a little girl, which really insults the power of the Fox King.
"Don't be afraid," the little girl's childlike voice was like a clear spring flowing in the mountains, inexplicably refreshing, "If you are really in pain, can you bite me a few more times?"
She actually took the initiative to hand her hand over to him. He Yunchao lowered his head, feeling that this little girl was both kind and stupid.
When the little girl saw that he didn't respond, she was not disappointed, but carried him to her back room.
He Yunchao couldn't imagine that she was a child of the Qiao family - although she lived in this courtyard, she wore coarse linen clothes and lived in a simple hut with only a bed, a desk and a bookshelf. The only courtyard , a large chunk is still empty.
Only the place where he lay down before was planted with a row of small flowers. It has not yet reached the flowering stage, but it has small leaves.
When did the Qiao family become so poor? Even a little girl has to be treated harshly
He was just a young man at heart, and as he glanced around, he suddenly felt sympathy for this silly little girl.
The silly little girl took out a piece of clothing, wrapped him up and put him on her bed. Then he rummaged through the bookshelf again. The bookshelf was still a bit high for her. She fiddled with it for a long time, moved a stool, and finally got the small medicine bottle.
"You've lost a lot of blood. I need to wash you first." She put the medicine bottle aside, took a basin, and brought a basin of water over.
He Yunchao was furious the moment he saw the water.
He was really in despair. He couldn't even beat a little girl. The little girl held down his tail and threw him into a basin to ravage him. The little girl's wrists are thin and white, and her face should have a little baby fat at this age, but she is very thin, missing a lot of nutrients.
He felt some sympathy again, and gradually stopped resisting. Her little hands were warm, not cold at all. She stroked him gently, and he had not felt so at ease for a long time.
The little girl dried him off and held him in her lap. He was already lazy, his tail was curled up, and he hooked the little girl's hand, making her giggle. She took the small porcelain bottle over and said, "This is the Qingxin Pill given by my sister... I have been saving it for a long time."
Pill!
He Yunchao finally had some energy.
This is not a good elixir. It may be useful for this little girl who has just started practicing, but it is just a drop in the bucket for him. But he did not refuse the little girl's kindness and refined it.
At this time, he actually didn't care about any pills. He just needs to find a place where he can settle down and practice, and within a few years, he will be able to transform smoothly - and by then, he will be able to take revenge.
Thanks to this silly little girl for giving him a place to stay.
So He Yunchao stayed like this.
He guessed right. There were only two maids outside. They were not guarding the house all day, and they would come over during meals. Most of the time, the little girl stayed alone in the yard.
Such a courtyard is like a cage, breaking the little girl's wings.
Although he didn't know the rules of the human world, he remembered that he was in the demon world. Anyone with certain qualifications would be sent to practice at this age instead of living a life of imprisonment like this.
She has no relatives or friends, and lives here in isolation. Most of the time, she stares at the wall in a daze, or reads over and over the only books on the bookshelf.
The wall was not high, but she had no ability to climb out. There was a formation set up by the Qiao family outside. He Yunchao could easily pass through it, but the little girl could not.
She was so lonely that she would hold him and talk to herself. He Yunchao learned that her name was Qiao Xiyin, and she took a pen and wrote her name carefully. The calligraphy is quite beautiful, I can't imagine that no one has taught her. Come to think of it, she is not without talent, but extremely talented.
She even wanted to give herself a name, but He Yunchao stopped her before she could think about it. He wrapped his tail around her pen and handed it to his paw.
Unfortunately, his paws were too small to hold a pen, and he even got himself covered in ink.
The desperate He Yunchao jumped out of Qiao Xiyin's arms, rummaged in the bookshelf for a long time, and pointed out the word "Chao".
"This is the sun." The little girl was surprised. "You are so discerning!"
He Yunchao: "..."
He knew that he couldn't argue with a child.
After Qiao Xiyin reads or rests alone, He Yunchao will hang around Qiao's house whenever she has free time.
The Qiao family's mansion was too big and housed thousands of people. No one would remember such an insignificant corner, and no one would care about a wild fox that ran out.
He gradually learned the identity of the little girl. It turned out that she was a legitimate young lady, but she had signs of demonic energy when she was born. She was regarded as an ominous thing and was trapped in the small courtyard.
He began to feel unfair for the little girl, just like when he was in the demon world and listened to those ridiculous bloodline theories.
He began to realize that although this little girl was silly, kind and blind, she was extremely smart. He tried to instruct her to practice some small spells, and she learned quickly, even better than the most talented disciple of the Qiao family.
The little girl is also very sensible. Unlike those rich children who are well-dressed and well-fed, she has a maturity that does not belong to her age group. Only when facing him will he show his innocent side.
Year after year, his cultivation level increased, and his tail that disappeared after being seriously injured also grew back, hovering on the edge of transformation.
The little girl's cultivation level was also improving, but the fox body couldn't teach her complicated spells, so he found books for her from outside.
Qiao Xiyin likes the outside world. He brought back many books: local chronicles, scenery, dramas, classics, teaching books... She has a strong desire for knowledge. No matter what he brings, she is happy.
Occasionally, he would bring some gadgets, such as candy hairpins and pastries. Once he brought a kite, and he went to send the maid away. Qiao Xiyin secretly flew it alone in the backyard. Her smile was like sweet candy, melting into He Yunchao's heart. heart.
That year, Qiao Xiyin was fifteen years old.
As a girl with hair extensions, she did not have the gift of hair extensions like other girls from the Qiao family.
Her only gift was from He Yunchao.
He Yunchao prepared a big gift for her.
He transformed.
That night, Qiao Xiyin set up a small square table and brought her own flower wine, planning to drink it with Yue.
The white fox soaked in moonlight walked forward and turned into a tall and handsome young man in front of her.
"Qiaoqiao," he stretched out his hand to her, "do you want to go outside and take a look?"
Qiao Xiyin left that prison for the first time in fifteen years.
She was like a newborn child, eager to learn about the world, wanting to capture everything she had lost in a short period of time.
He Yunchao also felt that this was all he had.
But he had to go.
The burden of revenge was on him, and he could no longer linger in the human world. But he can't take Qiao Xiyin with him - the demon world is full of dangers. He may not even have the ability to protect himself, and his chances of survival are slim. He is selfish and unwilling to let Qiao Xiyin lose her life.
In front of the flowers and under the moon, with a faint fragrance and sparse shadows, he kissed the little girl's forehead and made the most solemn vow in his life: "Wait until I come back."
"If I can come back alive, I will definitely marry you."
The little girl's face was as red as a juicy peach, but she responded: "...Okay."
He then erased her memory.
He changed their memories to her and her maid.
The future is uncertain. If he dies, even the news will not be delivered to her. She was fully capable of walking out on her own, and he didn't want him to restrict her steps.
If he successfully ascends the throne, he will definitely take her away, pursue her legitimately, and restore her memory.
However, if He Yunchao could guess what would happen in the future, he would definitely not choose to leave at this time.
Just one year.
A year later, the Qiao family chose to execute Qiao Xiyin. Qiao Xiyin was possessed by a thought and burned the Qiao family completely, never to be seen again.
Two years later, He Yunchao became the Demon King. I only heard that a new demon king took office in the demon world two years ago. She was a young girl, but she didn't pay too much attention to this matter.
He immediately returned to the human world and looked for his little girl. All he saw was empty plain land and an ancestral hall was being built.
The survivors said that a daughter of the Qiao family was possessed by the devil, burned down the Qiao family, and now became the devil.
They told the stories of that year, and their feelings of self-blame were like dense needles pricking He Yunchao's heart. How much pain did the little girl who felt pain when she was bitten suffer
He went to attend the demon banquet and saw Qiao Xiyin sitting in the main seat from a distance - her face was still the same, but it was completely different from the little girl in his memory. This girl is moody and very squeamish. She is always surrounded by people wherever she goes. She has a face as bright as a peach blossom, and she always hides a bit of interest when treating others.
But she is still the same little girl.
She still likes to act coquettishly, like to run around with her turtle, and she smiles harmlessly when she causes trouble.
The outside world said that the Demon King was crazy.
As soon as he met the Demon King, he seemed to not care about anything. He chased people until he didn't even return to the demon world. The Demon King casually said that he liked immortals, so he put on white robes, built caves, cultivated immortals, and came to the immortal world to invite him personally.
He is indeed crazy.
Even at the last moment, when the two of them were on the edge of a cliff, he could cut off the nine-tailed fox tail that everyone coveted and give it all to her without caring.
He no longer cares whether his memory has been restored or not. Their feelings are like a steady stream, rather than repaying the life-saving grace with a spring.
When He Yunchao opened his eyes, it was still dark. Under the bed, flower hairpins, flowers and trees fell to the ground. The little girl was curled up in his arms, sleeping soundly.
He carefully traced her features.
He finally married the girl he wanted to marry.
"What are you talking about?... It hasn't stopped all night." She suddenly muttered, before opening her eyes.
He Yunchao smiled and hugged her tightly:
"I love you."
