The blood is dyed red in the underground river. Ji Xiao rushed out of the dungeon with his clothes clean, and walked with a man on his sword.
The arrangement that Lingshan made in the dungeon was originally aimed at the helpers around Meng Xueli, such as the Chichu Feiyu and the two demons. Lingshan knew them well enough to keep them from going back and forth. He didn't know and never thought that Meng Xueli's human Taoist companion would come to the demon world to rob him before he died.
The night sky of Fengyue City was full of fireworks, and the sword light passed through it, like a small meteor, fleeting and inconspicuous.
Feijian crossed the high city wall and fled to the dense forest outside the city. The city guards will enjoy a feast in the Demon King's Palace, and there are only a few drunken patrolling demon soldiers at the front of the city.
Ten miles west of Fengyue City, after Ji Xiao made sure that there were no pursuers, he lowered his sword to the ground and returned the silver hook sword to Ning Wei: "I'll send it here. You know the way back to the world, so you can go by yourself."
Ning Wei took it, only to feel that this light sword became extremely heavy, and it was heavy in his hand, as he was in the mood at the moment: "What do you need me to do back?"
According to his experience, every ounce of favor given to others by others has a conspiracy behind it. But what value does he have for Ji Xiao, is it worth Ji Xiao wasting his true energy and wasting time to save him? Perhaps the other party wanted him to be a witness, to identify the real person Guiqing to the world, as well as Mingyuehu's actions and scheming.
Ji Xiao was inexplicably asked by him: "Do your own thing."
"Why did you save me?"
Ji Xiao: "It's the right time to do it." If it was Jing Di or another young monk in the prison, he would also save him.
Ning Wei was stunned and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will tell you?" Since Ji Xiao is not dead, he must return to the cultivation world and settle his grievances. This news is extremely valuable to many big figures. Whoever knows it earlier can make arrangements first.
Ji Xiao said lightly: "As you like."
"..." Ning Wei was startled, and looked down at the sword, wondering what he was thinking.
Ji Xiao turned around and was about to leave, when he heard the young Jianxiu say, "I want to discuss swords with you."
Ji Xiao stopped.
Ning Wei was afraid that he would not agree, and added: "According to my seniority, I am a disciple of the real Guiqing, the same generation as you; according to my cultivation, I am the strongest in swordsmanship among the young monks in the human world, surpassing Cui Jing by half a small realm. …”
In the secret realm of Hanhai, Ji Xiao once appeared as Xiao Tingyun and compared swords with Cui Jing. Of course, now it looks like it's a guide game. It is understandable that the elders of the teacher's sect teach outstanding descendants. However, Mingyuehu and Hanshan have opposite positions, and Ji Xiao has no reason to take care of other juniors.
Ji Xiao nodded: "Yes." He stretched out three fingers, "Three swords time."
Ning Wei was a little nervous, so he used the honorific title instead: "What sword are you using now?"
Ji Xiao: "At the beginning of the sky, Wu Ya is in the cold mountain, and I temporarily share a sword with the Taoist companion."
Ning Wei: "What?"
Can swords be shared? If it wasn't Ji Xiao who said this, it was someone else, he must think that person was not Jianxiu.
The bright moon hangs in the night sky, the wind blows the jungle, and the waves burst.
"It doesn't get in the way. Don't move the true essence." Ji Xiao put one hand behind him, and broke the twig with the other, "Come."
Ning Wei frowned: "In the secret realm, you and Cui Jing are not like swords." The implication is to ask, do you think I am inferior to Cui Jing, so you despise me.
Ji Xiao said: "I hadn't recovered yet, and now I have the power of the secret realm."
Ning Wei was speechless, and the other party said it so frankly and without any scruples, leaving him speechless.
The forest leaves are intertwined, sifting through the moonlight, shining on the silver hook sword, and the sword body reflects the clear light.
Ning Wei raised his sword, retreated some distance, and bowed to Ji Xiao as a disciple: "Please enlighten me."
Ji Xiao accepted it calmly.
Sui Ning Wei got up, the night wind was blowing in the forest, the leaves were flying all over the sky, the silver hook sword's light soared, as if a curved moon appeared out of thin air, the moonlight passed through the rain of leaves and pierced the sky. He started with "the bright moon goes out of Guanshan", and he would strike out with one sword, and grab people first.
Ji Xiao stood still, his robes rolled up by the sword wind and swayed high. However, when the silver hook sword was imminent, the wind around him stopped, and his sleeves fell back, like a lotus flower that bloomed and withered in an instant.
A branch sticks out from the bottom of the lotus, and an invincible and powerful aura overflows from the branch.
Ji Xiao turned his wrist, and the twigs lightly circled around the sword, as if there was some kind of strange attraction, absorbing all the moonlight and sword energy on the silver hook sword.
For a time, the branches were full of brilliance, and the green leaves were reborn, like a phantom of the bright moon, wrapped in two swords and slashed towards Ning Wei, which turned out to be a move of "the bright moon leaves Guanshan". But this moon shadow is as bright as the sun, compared to the moonlight of the silver hook just now, it can only be called a candle in the wind.
Ning Wei was shocked, and the long sword in his hand trembled slightly uncontrollably. He couldn't avoid this sword, which aroused paranoia in his heart, and he was about to take it when he was facing him, but Ji Xiao said solemnly, "Raise your elbow. ."
The voice implied the principles of heaven and law. He subconsciously raised his elbows and took advantage of the trend to "moon rushing into the river." Thousands of fallen leaves gathered with the silver hook sword, like a surging river under the moonlight. The branches in Ji Xiao's hands were castrated, and in an instant, the leaves in the air rushed back, and the river poured back, which is also "the moon rushing into the river". Exactly the same sword move, completely different sword stance.
"Left." Ning Wei turned to the left, avoiding the turbulent river. Before he could use his sword, he heard Ji Xiao say, "Go back."
He spun back and blocked with the horizontal sword, still a moment slower. Ji Xiao's branch was placed around his neck, and the sword qi overflowed from the branch, which was worthy of shaving the hair that fell from his temples. The body-protecting true essence was pierced by the sword qi, and one more point could take his life.
In the time when Ji Xiao spit out six words, the two confronted three times, and a sword discussion was over.
The gust of wind ceased, and the shattered leaves fell to the ground. No moon shadow, no river water.
Ning Wei's face was decadent. He prepared three swords and only used two swords. What is the sword that is invincible in the world and invincible in the world, he witnessed it for the first time tonight, and perhaps the last time.
Ji Xiao smiled and threw down the branches, as if he was sitting facing someone and drinking tea and then put down the teacup: "If you take one step faster, you can still make another sword. You see, it's easy to make a sword, but it's hard to turn around."
Relying on "promoting irrigation" to improve the cultivation base, such as the seedlings, will cause endless troubles. If you want to eliminate the ills, you can only start from the beginning if you abandon your previous achievements, that is, "go back".
When the young man heard the words, he suddenly raised his eyes, his expression changed in despair, his eyes were red, and he stared at Ji Xiao: "You big men, high above, say anything lightly! I have come this far, how can I turn back?!"
There were tears in his eyes under the moonlight.
Ji Xiao is not angry either, looking at the bone age, the other party is younger than Jing Di, what is there to be angry about
He only asked: "Do you really like swords?"
Ning Wei was stunned, his emotions calmed down a little, and he said, "Yes."
"Since you like it, practice hard. How to draw a sword is swordsmanship; why to draw a sword is the way of kendo. If the mind of the Tao is not established, the sword is not a family. When you want to understand, you can use the third sword."
Ji Xiao turned around and walked.
The teenager froze in place: "Wait!"
"Is there anything else?" Ji Xiao glanced in the direction of Fengyuecheng. Tens of thousands of spiritual energy lines in the city were violently tossing, like a ferocious living thing, the sky was dark and cloudy and quickly gathered towards the Demon King's Palace, shrouded in ominous blood.
"My master's plans, one is to kill you, and the other is for Mingyuehu Dao Lineage. But I can be sure that Master can't complete these layouts on his own, and he also got instructions from someone. From Vast Sea Secret Realm to Demon Realm Fengyue City, that person Everywhere... believe it or not. How careful you are."
The young man was very vague, but Ji Xiao understood and nodded: "Thank you."
****
Demon Palace. Hundreds of flowers are in full bloom, the night wind blows the lake, and the wine smells.
Que Xianming lightly opened the veil, and when he stepped off the throne, all the demons stared at him with a look of surprise. When he walked to the dance girl team, all the demons suddenly realized that this little demon with weak demon power did not have the gorgeous beauty of the city and the country, but it did not have the pure and moving appearance. It turned out that the king of Lingshan had a unique taste and liked such a male demon.
Chi Chu saw Meng Xueli's expression changed slightly, then looked at "Xinxue", and said in shock, "He can't be..."
Meng Xueli: "That's who he is. When you start, you take Ruan Hui and Bi You to go first, and send a signal to join Feiyu. Otherwise, I won't be able to take care of it, and I'll be distracted instead."
Chi Chu was shocked: "Are you going to do it?"
There are hundreds of demon kings here, and there are many demon soldiers. Could it be that Meng Xueli wanted to snatch King Lingshan's "servant pet" all the way out of Fengyue City and return to the world
Meng Xueli said helplessly, "It's not me who wants to move now, it's him who wants to move."
On second thought, it is not the first time that I have been pitted by a bird, this time it is still a familiar feeling, but instead smiled: "Let's adapt accordingly."
Chi Chu suspected that he was crazy.
In the sound transmission between the two, "Xinxue" flew lightly and entered the venue gracefully.
The Lakeside Music Class consists of hundreds of musicians, who play various musical instruments from the Three Realms. After the heavy drum, the light piano sounded.
The dancers' skirts are flying, five-color flowers are blooming, and all kinds of ribbons are flying in the air, like rainbow bridges across the lake, dazzling the eyes of the demons.
Biyou didn't find Xiaoluan, and she was confused. Suddenly, a clear chirping of a bird rang out from the lake, reaching the sky, making the group of demons startled. Most of them do not understand the rhythm, but the appreciation of beauty is the same.
Luan Bird appeared from the depths of the flower bushes. She sang an ancient saying of the demon tribe, and her pronunciation was awkward, but her singing was gorgeous and tactful. At first, it was soft, like gurgling water, and gradually became high with the music, like a majestic waterfall pouring down from a mountain.
Chi Chu lightly bumped into Bi You's arm: "You have a good eye. 'Kunshan Jade Broken Phoenix Cries, Furong Weeps and Fragrant Orchid Smiles', when you marry her, you can hear it every day."
Bi You didn't say anything. He looked intoxicated, and felt that he was floating in the air, and couldn't hear anything except the singing.
After the luan birds sang, the group of demons fell silent. After a while, there was thunderous applause and cheers like a sea, pushing the atmosphere to a climax. Immediately, Bailing, Thrush and other bird demons appeared and sang in unison, in harmony with the sound of the luan bird. Thousands of beautiful voices merged into a great river, galloping endlessly.
The music changed again, the dancers scattered and spun, and fell into the room like flowers and butterflies, dancing beside the demon kings, and even invited all the demons to get up and dance together, causing a commotion in the room. Only Xinxue and Xiaoluan approached the high-level and performed for the king of Lingshan on the throne.
According to the original arrangement, this piece of music, with the best singer and the best dancer, is close to the throne to show the status of Lingshan different from other demon kings. The dancer was originally set to be the bird of paradise, but "Xinxue" was the king's favorite, with a special status, and the performers tacitly gave him the position of the limelight.
Qu Xianming was only ten feet away from the throne.
The group of demons were already deeply drunk, and they danced staggeringly and staggered.
Meng Xueli walked through the chaotic ghost shadows and the tulle of the throne, and when he saw the smile on Lingshan's lips, he couldn't help being shocked.
Just at this moment, the peacock's clear cry penetrated the noise, and a light blue light spit out from the mouth of "Xinxue", borrowing the power of the Jinghong Mirror artifact, straight to the throne!
Que Xianming's natal demon fire is like an electric light, wrapped in strong wind and rushing through the tulle. The king of Lingshan revealed his true face, and he was about to be killed by electric light.
The demons were shocked, and the music didn't even have time to stop. Between the lightning and flint, the sound of Fengming suddenly sounded, and the girl's slender figure was like a fallen leaf in a gust of wind. Under the impact of a cluster of blue demon fire, it flew high—
When Xiaoluan saw the face of the "court painter", his body reacted faster than thinking. The painter was her only friend after coming to Fengyue City. She was gentle and melancholic, and full of talent. They spent countless nights discussing and admiring murals by candlelight, and they became friends with each other.
Why is the painter sitting on the throne? Something must have gone wrong.
Que Xianming never expected that this inconspicuous and weak Luan bird actually sacrificed itself for Lingshan to block the ultimate move. Everything happened too fast, only he and Luanniao were the closest to Lingshan.
"Little Luan!" Bi You exclaimed in horror and flew towards him.
A huge shadow rises from the throne, like black smoke billowing upwards, and the ancient giant tree twigs. The gust of wind swept the ground, and Lingshan instantly showed the original shape of a giant python, which was more than ten feet high, wrapped around a golden armor at seven inches, and swept with one tail.
"There are assassins, protect the king!" The chaos broke out in the field, the big demon roared, the little demon screamed, fled in all directions, the table was poured, and the fruits were flying.
Bi You only cares about holding Xiao Luan. Her whole body's demon bones had been shattered, and blood spurted out of her mouth. She still tried her best to speak, but there was only a gurgling sound in her throat. The last moment Xiaoluan was still singing, at this moment they were all dead. How short-lived the monster is, it is too late for anything to change. Bi You's heart was empty, and she let the snake's tail strike down. The expected death did not come, and he was led out after being carried by a force: "Come on!"
It turned out that the bird Xianming turned into the original shape of the peacock, and fought against Lingshan with a demon fire. Blood spilled from his lips, and his red eyes stared at the giant python, and he suddenly said in surprise, "A Diao!"
After Meng Xueli became a human being, Que Xianming didn't call him that for a long time.
Meng Xueli stood in mid-air, holding two swords, the two short swords were crossed, locking the snake's head. The gigantic snake head was so high, it struggled endlessly, and the huge figure tumbled along with it, the lakeside and the garden shook the mountains, and the flowers and leaves were annihilated.
"Take them away!" Meng Xueli shouted to Chi Chu. Before he finished speaking, the scales on the snake's neck cracked, and there seemed to be a living creature squirming under it. A snake's head burst out alive, its fangs were wide open, and it bit down on Meng Xueli.
Meng Xueli rolled over to dodge, and at the same time threw out the mirage in his sleeve: "Go!"
The mirage fell to the ground and opened its mouth, and the mirage condensed the city's white fog, which quickly spread out and enveloped the entire Demon King's Palace. Meng Xueli used the mist to hide his figure, walking like a little water. The python swayed its tail, causing the clouds to rippling.
Lingshan's voice was like rolling thunder: "Since you are here, why hide your head and show your tail!"
Meng Xueli flickered and reappeared, and immediately retreated when he missed a hit, only leading Lingshan in circles to buy time for Chi Chu. He stepped in the void and seemed to be running for his life with his true essence, but in fact, every step he stepped on the aura line of Fengyue City, so as to take advantage of it.
Wherever the giant python passed, the palace walls collapsed, the turf rolled over, and the ground was in disarray. Thousands of lanterns by the lake were knocked into the lake by the giant python. However, the lake was full of spirits, and it ignited in case of fire. The wind helped the fire, and the more it burned, the more prosperous.
The cries of "Protect the King" could no longer be heard, and the group of demons fled desperately outside the palace, but they didn't know what kind of alcohol it was.
The fire rained, the banquet turned into purgatory, the palace of the demon king was full of fire, and the music and laughter turned into cries, moans, and roars.
Xiaoluan's demonic power passed away, and it was not enough to maintain the human form, and turned into a bloody luan bird, which was held in the palm of Bi You's hands. Chi Chu had an idea, he helped Biyou with one hand, and opened a bag with the other, and suddenly the wind was full of water, and a river of water poured from the bag, clearing a way for them.
Chi Chu was startled: "What is this, fortunately I didn't open it to myself!"
The magic weapon that King Baihe gave him to protect himself and protect his life was actually a waterfall of Baihe water.
Lingshan's original body was majestic, with thick flesh but bulky, not as good as Meng Xueli's personal combat skills and flexible weapons. He transformed into a handsome and sinister human figure, floating in the air.
Two demons, no, one person and one demon finally faced each other.
Old friends meet again, enemies meet, no jealousy, only life and death.
Meng Xueli said in a deep voice, "Use blood and fire to sacrifice the flag, and use fear to secure the throne. There is no demon to show your sincerity, and you are hanging in the air. Are you really happy?"
Lingshan said disdainfully: "Aren't you just hanging on to each other? Who understands your ambitions, is it the childish demon of Qu Xianming, or the two naive idiots of Chi Chu and Fei Yu?"
Meng Xueli calmed down a little: "I already have a Taoist companion and a home."
This time, Lingshan really didn't expect it. He only knew that Meng Xueli was in the human world together, but the dragon trapped in the shoal would bite people, how could the big demon give in so easily
Hearing this tonight, he seemed to be betrayed and became angry for no reason: "Dao Companion? How long have you known him, three years? Ha! He is already dead!"
Lingshan sneered, "It's ridiculous. Who has spent the past few hundred years with you? It's me! You are a man of flesh and blood, and your nature is still a demon. How can a demon love someone
Meng Xueli turned the two swords into a spear: "What if you get excited?"
Lingshan pointed to the underground purgatory-like scene:
"Open your eyes and look at this demon world. There are brains, demon power, and determination to change the demon world. Only the two of us should be together!"
Meng Xueli shook his head: "You're crazy."
