In this way, Murong Qingyan also joined the group.
Because of Chen Junyi's guidance, the group's itinerary was fairly safe, and they didn't encounter much danger. Along the way, they also saw a lot of good things. For those things, Murong Qingyan did not take it as his own, but let them share it.
Although Murong Qingyan was not obvious on the surface, he had been observing the brothers Chen Xiangjie and Chen Xiangxiang secretly, and found nothing unusual. However, she did not let her guard down because of this.
Inside the Song family—
The Chen family's saintess canonization ceremony, the Song family naturally sent people to participate. Therefore, when the people of the Song family came back, the patriarch of the Song family soon knew what happened on the canonization hall. When he heard that the Shenhuo of the Chen family had been recovered, and that person was not from the Chen family, the head of the Song family immediately burst into laughter.
The identity of Murong Qingyan has not been widely advertised yet. Therefore, only those families who are friends with the Chen family know some news. The people of the Song family are naturally unclear.
Therefore, after hearing such news, the head of the Song family felt that even if he was sleeping, he would be woken up by laughter. The Song family and the Chen family are both one of the four major families, and both belong to the alchemy family. One can imagine how fierce the struggle between the two is. Even for this time, the canonization ceremony of the saintess, other families sent people of relatively high status to participate, but the Song family only sent a few unimportant people, which is evident.
The Chen family has obviously fallen over the years, but it is because they have always owned the fire that they can maintain their status as one of the four major families. Now that the Chen family has lost even the divine fire, the decline in the future can be imagined.
Thinking of this, the Song Family Patriarch felt extremely happy.
Like the head of the Song family, the rest of the Song family were equally happy after hearing such news. But only one person is an exception. This person is none other than Song Liyi.
She was quite happy when she heard about the Shenhuo of the Chen family. But after hearing the name of the person who stole the Shenhuo from the Chen family, her original joy completely disappeared, replaced by a strong hatred.
After being a couple for many years, Song Kaizhi naturally saw that Song Liyi was wrong. After returning to the room, Song Kaizhi asked.
"Liyi, what's the matter with you?" Song Kaizhi frowned and looked at Song Liyi, "You didn't seem very happy just now."
"Happy, why am I so happy?" Song Liyi's face couldn't help but be stained with a bit of meanness when she spoke, "Didn't you hear who the person who took away the fire of the Chen family just now? Is that Murong Qingyan, have you forgotten who Murong Qingyan is?"
Over the years, perhaps it should be said that since Song Lin's fall, Song Liyi has fallen into an inextricable hatred. She made various designs, just to kill Murong Qingyan, but she has been unable to do so. Later, Murong Qingyan disappeared for fifty years without knowing where he went.
However, her hatred for Murong Qingyan did not disappear with the passage of time, on the contrary, it became more and more profound. It can be said that Murong's face is not dead, she can't be calm no matter what.
"Liyi, it's been so many years, can't you put it down?" After hearing Song Liyi's words, Song Kaizhi couldn't help sighing, "Lin Er has been dead for decades, you are still alive. Remember, do you think you can be happy? Besides, we have no way of determining whether it was Murong who killed Lin'er back then."
Song Lin died in the secret realm back then, and every time she practiced in the secret realm, many people would fall. Therefore, there is no way to be sure that it was Murong who killed Lin'er. But Song Liyi has been unable to let go for so many years.
"I don't care." Song Liyi was almost obsessed, "In short, Lin'er's death has absolutely nothing to do with that Murong Qingyan, and I will never let Murong Qingyan go. You don't want to do it for Lin. If you want to take revenge, then I will do it myself."
"You—" Seeing Song Liyi's obsessive appearance, Song Kaizhi was very angry, "You said to yourself, how many things have you done to deal with this Murong Qingyan. It was also because of you back then that we harmed less of our family. So many distracted powerhouses. In order to cover up this matter for you, I have done so many things, and now you are still making trouble."
"Hmph, don't say it so nicely, the reason why you bothered to cover it up for me is just because you don't want to drag yourself down." Song Liyi said disdainfully, "Besides, don't talk about yourself so righteously, back then You were also involved in that incident. You were only doing it for yourself."
Back then, she didn't do it alone. Although it was her idea at the beginning, Song Kaizhi also participated in it in the end. If there is no Song Kaizhi, how can she use the powerhouses in the distraction period! It's impossible to push everything down on her now!
After hearing Song Liyi's words, Song Kaizhi's face became a little ugly, "Don't think that I don't know what you have done. After that, didn't you also promise me, will you forget it? But in the end, But you made those deals with Bai Ruo. Don't think that I don't know about the things between you and Bai Ruo, I just didn't say it. "
"What, do you feel bad?" Song Liyi's face was full of mocking smiles, "Bai Ruo is your daughter, so you feel bad. If that's the case, why didn't you stop it in the first place? Just let Bai Ruo recognize his ancestors and return to the clan, then so many things won't happen, right?"
As for Bai Ruo, the person she used to use, she has long since forgotten about it. If it wasn't because Song Kaizhi mentioned it today, maybe she would have forgotten this person long ago. However, this Bai Ruo was not enough at the beginning and more than failed, and he was simply a waste. However, this waste seems to have died many years ago.
"You are simply unreasonable." Song Kaizhi pointed at Song Liyi, so angry that he was almost speechless, "If I really want to care, do you think you can still sit firmly in the seat of the Song family's wife now? In the future, Don't worry about Murong Qingyan's affairs, whether she lives or dies has nothing to do with you."
"Impossible." Song Liyi refused without hesitation, "I can't feel at ease if this Murong Qingyan doesn't die for a day, no matter what, I can't let her go."
"Nonsense." Song Kaizhi flicked his sleeves, his face full of anger, "Why don't you stop for a while? This Murong Qingyan has offended the Chen family now, and it is impossible to have any chance of turning over again. You Why do you have to intervene?"
According to the current situation, it is impossible for the Chen family to let Murong Qingyan go, and there is no need for them to intervene in this matter. Moreover, this Murong Qingyan didn't seem to be a fuel-efficient lamp, and he was able to steal everyone's magic fire under the eyes of the Chen family. Such people, they are really not suitable to continue to provoke.
"Of course you don't care at all." Song Liyi looked at Song Kaizhi and said with a sneer, "Now that you have other children, it's not that you don't care about Liner's death. But I am Liner's mother. , I must avenge her."
After so many years of Lin'er's death, Song Kaizhi already had other children. However, those children were not born by her, but by those concubines. Because of having other children, Song Kaizhi no longer cared about Lin'er. But she was different. She would never allow her only daughter to die like this.
"What are you talking about!" After hearing Song Liyi's words, a trace of embarrassment appeared on Song Kaizhi's face, "Don't those children also call you mother?"
He is a man, and naturally he cannot allow himself to have no children. If there is no heir, then he wants to compete for the position of the head of the family, which is simply wishful thinking. Therefore, over the years, those concubines have given birth to several children for him, both male and female, and the oldest one is almost fifty years old this year.
However, these children were born from concubines. Over the years, Song Liyi has not had any more children.
"Hmph, can those bastards be compared with my Lin'er?" Song Liyi said disdainfully, "I will never admit the status of those bastards."
Hearing that Song Liyi used the word "bitch" to describe her children, Song Kaizhi's face suddenly turned gloomy, "What are you talking about, although those children are from concubines, they are also my children. Whether you want to admit it or not, they are all my children, this is a fact that cannot be changed."
"Song Kaizhi, don't force me." Song Liyi looked at Song Kaizhi with red eyes, "Lin'er is dead, I don't care about anything now. I just want to send the bitch who killed Lin'er down. Hell, why do you keep blocking me?"
"I'm not trying to obstruct you, but I don't want you to pay for yourself." When Song Kaizhi looked at Song Liyi, there was a trace of resentment in his eyes, "Father has already said that about Liner, It is impossible to pursue further investigations. If you do this, you will only gain more than you lose."
Song Kaizhi still has feelings for Song Liyi, after all, they are husband and wife for many years. Therefore, he didn't want Song Liyi to sink deeper and deeper, and finally be unable to extricate herself. Anyway, now that Murong Qingyan has offended the Chen family, wouldn't it be better for the Chen family to deal with Murong Qingyan
"Song Kaizhi, I'm not the same as your head-shrinking tortoise." Song Liyi didn't even look at Song Kaizhi again, "I absolutely can't forget about Lin'er. But don't worry, don't dare. No matter what I do, it won't involve you."
She never expected Song Kaizhi to help her. She doesn't need anyone's help to avenge her daughter.
Seeing Song Liyi's obsessive appearance, Song Kaizhi didn't know what to say. In the end, he flicked his sleeves, "Hmph, if you continue like this, you will only hurt yourself in the end."
After speaking, Song Kaizhi walked away directly. Having said so much, what should be said and what should not be said, he has already said all. If Song Liyi still wants to go his own way, there is nothing he can do.
Seeing the back of Song Kaizhi leaving, a sneer appeared on Song Liyi's face, but there was no other superfluous expression. After so many years of wear and tear, her feelings for Song Kaizhi have long since worn off. Especially after so many years, Song Kaizhi not only did not take revenge for Lin'er, but when she gave birth to a child and had a child, she had already given up on this man.
Therefore, she doesn't care what kind of thoughts Song Kaizhi has in her heart. The only thing she has to do now is to avenge Lin'er and kill Murong Qingyan. She doesn't care about everything else.
As early as fifty years ago, she wanted to get rid of this bitch Murong Qingyan. It's a pity that Murong Qingyan disappeared not long after Bai Ruo's failure. She just wanted to do it, but she couldn't find anyone. Now that Murong Qingyan appeared again, it was impossible for her to give up this opportunity again.
This time, Murong Qingyan must die. Only in this way, her Lin Er can rest in the spirit of heaven.
Thinking of this, a trace of resentment kept appearing in Song Liyi's mind. A strange smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, causing the temperature around her to drop several degrees.
"yawn-"
At this time, Murong Qingyan, who was in the secret realm, couldn't help but sneezed, and she muttered to herself, "Is someone thinking about me?"
She couldn't help but think of Huangfu Jue. Huangfu Jue had promised her that he would always wait for her outside. After she goes out, the first person she sees will definitely be Huangfu Jue.
Thinking of Huangfu Jue, a sweet smile appeared on Murong's face.
"Miss Biao, are you alright!" Hearing Murong's face sneezing, Chen Ziling stepped forward and asked with concern, "Are you feeling unwell! Do you need to rest here?"
As soon as Chen Ziling said this, everyone immediately looked at Murong with concern, and began to ask questions.
"I'm fine," Murong shook her head and said with a smile, "I just sneezed, maybe someone missed me!"
Originally walking with these people, Murong Qingyan just wanted to find out what the brothers Chen Xiangjie and Chen Xiangxiang wanted to do. However, along the way, others paid too much attention to her, which made her really uncomfortable.
She knew very well that the reason why these people would be courteous to her was purely because of her status at this time. But she couldn't break it.
After hearing Murong Qingyan's self-joking remarks, everyone laughed.
"It's been so long, why don't we just rest in place!" Chen Junyi said with a smile, "Next, we still have a lot of time to stay in this secret realm, so there's no need to rush that much. ."
In this group, everyone is headed by Chen Junyi. Now that Chen Junyi has spoken, everyone naturally agrees.
Soon, everyone sat down and began to rest.
Brothers Chen Xiangjie and Chen Xiangxiang got up and volunteered to find a water source. Everyone had no opinion, and Chen Junyi was even more satisfied with this. Originally, the reason why he let the brothers join was for the convenience of everyone. Now that the brothers are so acquainted, that's the best.
After getting everyone's approval, Chen Xiangjie and Chen Xiangxiang left soon.
After walking far away, after making sure that no one else could hear their conversation, Chen Xiangxiang finally couldn't hold back his doubts and said, "Brother, what are you thinking, we are actually walking with Murong Qingyan now. now. This—"
"Xiaoxiang, don't think too much." A gloom flashed in Chen Xiangjie's eyes, "Since things have become like this, even if you are annoyed here, there is no use."
"But, brother, my heart is still very worried." Chen Xiangxiang's face was full of worry, "The reason why Miss Liuli agreed to help us enter the secret realm is to deal with Murong Qingyan. Now Murong Qingyan is in our team. , what should we do?”
Originally, the two brothers were not qualified to enter this secret realm at all. At the time of the selection, they simply did not pass. Later, it was because of Chen Liuli's help that they were able to enter this secret realm.
But the reason why Chen Liuli is willing to help them is not without any requirements. Her only request is that they help her deal with Murong Qingyan together. But how to help, Chen Liuli did not explain clearly.
For such a request, they still agreed. Being able to enter the secret realm to practice is something that almost everyone in the Chen family is thinking about. In particular, as collateral, they are even more eager for such an opportunity. The people of the collateral family have already lost to the people of the main family in terms of birth.
People of the direct line can get the qualification to enter the secret realm to practice without fighting, but they have to compete every time to get the qualification. This time they failed again, and now they finally have such an opportunity, how could they give up
After entering the secret realm to cultivate, as long as you can leave safely, no one's cultivation will not grow.
Moreover, in the secret realm, it is a small world. After entering the secret realm, where it will be teleported is random. Therefore, the chances of them meeting Murong Qingyan and Chen Liuli are very small. At that time, if there is no way to meet, it is not their fault.
Therefore, when faced with Chen Liuli's request, they agreed without hesitation. But they didn't expect that not long after they entered the secret realm, they met Murong's face, and now they are still walking together.
"Don't do anything for the time being." Chen Xiangjie pondered for a while, and said, "Under the eyes of so many people, we can't do anything. If those people find out, then we will definitely not be able to escape. "
Although they had promised Chen Liuli, they must also put their own safety first, right? If they do something unfavorable to Murong's face at this time, it is unknown whether they will be able to survive after going out.
Especially since the head of the family loves Murong Qingyan so much, he will definitely not let them go. Besides, they weren't necessarily Murong's adversaries. What's more, there is such a person beside Murong's face—
Thinking of Huangfu Jue's icy eyes and awe-inspiring breath, Chen Xiangjie couldn't help but fight a cold war.
"But, brother, isn't it good?" Chen Xiangxiang's face was full of hesitation, "The reason why Miss Liuli will help us is conditional. If we do this, will we betray our promise? Miss knows, we don't have any good fruit to eat."
Although Chen Liuli's status in the Chen family is not as good as before, it is still easy to deal with their two collateral people.
"Don't worry, it'll be fine." Chen Xiangjie shook his head and said, "Although we promised Miss Liuli that we would help her deal with Murong Qingyan, Miss Liuli didn't make it clear to us, did she? Besides, the secret realm It's so big, Miss Liuli can't monitor our every move anytime, anywhere!"
"Brother, what you said makes sense, but I'm still worried." Chen Xiangxiang thought about it and said, "Why don't we leave the current team! This way, we can stay away from right and wrong."
"No." Chen Xiangjie rejected the suggestion without hesitation, "If we leave these people, we can't go so smoothly in the secret realm. When we encounter danger, we may not be able to escape. For the time being Let's stay in this team! In this way, we can also monitor this Murong Qingyan, and if Miss Liuli really wants to ask her for guilt, we have something to say."
Although he felt that this was very unsafe, Chen Xiangxiang couldn't think of any other way, so he nodded, "Okay, brother, I will listen to you."
"Well." Chen Xiangjie continued to exhort, "Xiaoxiang, you must be careful, and don't show any flaws in front of Murong's face. Otherwise, we will definitely die by then."
Because he knows Murong Qingyan's strength, Chen Xiangjie is also very jealous of Murong Qingyan.
Chen Xiangxiang didn't say anything, just nodded, indicating that he had heard it.
