Sui Yuan and Xuan Ling's double cultivation ceremony shocked the entire cultivation world's jaws, firstly because it was a pair of dogs and men—no, it was two male cultivators, and secondly because of Xuan Ling's deterrence as a sword cultivator in the Mahayana period.
Not long ago, he was so angry that he became a blue face, and he took out the entire Demon Sect with a single sword, and even severely injured the Demon Ancestor who was one step away from the true transformation of demons. Whether they want to admire his demeanor or take pictures of his strength, they all expressed their blessings one after another. It can be called a universal celebration. Even those who are disdainful in their hearts absolutely dare not show it in public. I can only ridicule in private, and feel all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred for that Jindanqi Daoxiu who has crossed the barriers of strength, seniority, gender, etc. to climb the big tree of Xuanling through some shit luck.
And at this moment, what is this Jindanqi Daoxiu who became famous for hugging his thigh in one fell swoop doing
... He was hooking up with the heroine.
5237: "..."
"Brother, don't say it!" Shen Jiayi took a step back with a hint of pain, but then restrained his emotions in an instant, "You are the master's partner, and the elder I respect, no matter what the past is, now we can only be Elders and juniors!"
Sui Yuan also closed his eyes sadly, his face turned pale and ugly.
"...I know you have pain in your heart." Shen Jiayi sighed lightly, his tone softened, and his expression was filled with pity and sadness, "I am very grateful and grateful that you formed a partner with Master for the sake of the sect's benefit." ... Sad, but Master loves you so much and is willing to give everything for you. I believe that he will treat you very well, and you... will gradually fall in love with him... "
"Like him? Obviously I have another love..." Sui Yuan said softly, but in the end he didn't continue, just smiled wryly, "Yes, you are right, since I made such a choice for the benefit of the sect , then you must continue to bear it, and there should be no untimely delusions."
"Senior brother..." Shen Jiayi also hesitated to speak, and finally bowed his head in salute, "I wish you and Master a hand in hand with the immortal journey and soar together."
"...Thank you." After a long time, Sui Yuan squeezed out these two words from between his teeth, and then watched Shen Jiayi turn around in a hurry and leave quickly, as if he couldn't wait to escape.
Sui Yuan looked at her back, raised his hands to cover his face to cover his happy expression, and deeply felt that this scene of Liu Minghui's struggle and love for the heroine was not bad.
"It can be scored eight points." 5237 Ding Ding commented.
"What's with the other two points deducted?" Sui Yuan is a good student who knows his mistakes and can correct them, and keeps pace with the times.
"It's because there is no such paragraph in the original text." 5237 replied.
Sui Yuan suddenly felt that his knee was hit by an arrow, and his figure almost knelt down in a flash! Then he was suddenly grabbed by someone.
"Ming Hui, how do you feel?!" Shao Peiyuan asked anxiously, he had come here a long time ago and heard the conversation between Sui Yuan and Shen Jiayi. Seeing Shen Jiayi leaving quickly, Sui Yuan looked at her back with deep affection like the sea, and seemed to be crumbling as if unable to bear the blow, couldn't help but feel heartbroken, and even forgot to cover up his impolite behavior of listening to the corner, and found out rashly body.
Ever since he knew that Sui Yuan was going to hold a double cultivation ceremony with Xuan Ling, Shao Peiyuan felt that something was wrong with him! In a hurry, he wanted to rush over to ask Sui Yuan how he got back, but he was stopped by the master who seemed to know everything well, telling him to wake up.
Shao Peiyuan tried to wake up, but still couldn't bear to meditate, and finally found an opportunity to run out and go straight to Tianyuzong.
Just now, the conversation between Sui Yuan and Shen Jiayi let him really know the whole story, and his hesitation was instantly replaced by anger. If he didn't still have a sliver of reason, he really wanted to challenge Xuan Ling directly like this, and let him still Sui Yuan is free.
Shao Peiyuan only thought it was to fight for his friend, and couldn't bear to see him being treated like this, but he never thought deeply about the other meanings contained in it—or, he didn't dare at all.
Sui Yuan was taken aback by Shao Peiyuan's sudden appearance. Fortunately, he was used to maintaining the proper demeanor of playing a role anytime and anywhere, and there was no possibility of revealing his secrets. Seeing Shao Peiyuan's sad and resentful look, his heart moved, and he took Shao Peiyuan's hand behind his back.
Shao Peiyuan's chest froze, and even his thinking was messed up for a moment, so he could only nod along with the other party's pleading instinct.
Seeing him nodding, Sui Yuan's expression widened: "Junior Sister Shen...just ask Brother Pei Yuan to take care of you..."
Shao Peiyuan was stunned for a moment, and it took him a while to realize what he had just promised, and wanted to go back on his word, but seeing Sui Yuan's solemn and pleased expression, he couldn't say anything, so he could only close his eyes slowly, nodded and said: "Don't worry, I agree. I will never regret what happened to you."
Sui Yuan smiled, stretched out his hand and pushed Shao Peiyuan: "Go quickly, Junior Sister Shen... probably needs someone to comfort her right now."
"Then you..." Shao Peiyuan hesitated.
"He has me here." The cold voice interrupted Shao Peiyuan's next words. Xuan Ling, who was dressed like snow in white, walked out slowly. The coercion of the Mahayana period made Shao Peiyuan almost fall to his knees, and his face turned pale in an instant.
Xuan Ling waved his sleeve, and pulled Shao Peiyuan who was very close to Sui Yuan back a few steps. Shao Peiyuan was so anxious that he even forgot his honorific name: "You—when were you there!"
Sui Yuan and Shen Jiayi are Jindan cultivators, so naturally they can't feel that he, a Nascent Soul cultivator, is listening to the corner nearby. Similarly, as a Nascent Soul cultivator, it is even more impossible for him to sense the existence of Mahayana Xuan Ling. If Xuan Ling knew that Sui Yuan had a relationship with Shen Jiayi, and that becoming a Taoist couple with him was just a way to appease him for the benefit of the sect, then - Shao Peiyuan dared not continue to imagine.
Seemingly not seeing the change in Shao Peiyuan's face, Xuan Ling walked to Sui Yuan's side, hugged his shoulders, and only then did he have the heart to look at Shao Peiyuan. That gaze was like a sharp sword, even if Shao Peiyuan, who had been tortured, could no longer look at people's faces, he could still see how deep the other party's hostility towards him was.
—Obviously, he was just a Nascent Soul Stage that Xuan Ling could easily crush to death... Shao Peiyuan naturally knew why Xuan Ling was so afraid of him but didn't do anything, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief and felt a little sad.
Seeing Sui Yuan and Xuan Ling standing side by side, they fit together so well that no one could separate them, Shao Peiyuan finally looked away dejectedly, turned around as Sui Yuan urged, and chased after Shen Jiayi in the direction where Shen Jiayi was leaving.
Seeing that Shao Peiyuan had finally left, Xuan Ling restrained his momentum a little, and let out a soft snort to show his dissatisfaction—even though he knew it was just a show, it still didn't feel good to witness everything with his own eyes.
It's just that Sui Yuan didn't bother to pay attention to his little awkwardness. When the scene was over, he raised his hand and took Xuan Ling's hand off his shoulder. Shi Shiran turned around and walked back.
Xuan Ling, who had gained a body and a status, but still had no status in the eyes of the other party, felt deeply aggrieved, so this aggrieved naturally wanted to vent out on the bed.
Sui Yuan, who was tossed and tossed and tossed and tossed by Xuan Ling abducted him countless times, burst into tears, deeply annoyed that he had foolishly accepted his proposal—this was simply pushing himself to his death!
"Do you know?" After the affair, Xuan Ling lazily embraced Sui Yuan who had buried himself in the quilt, his lips lingering on his exposed shoulders and neck, "I am most satisfied with 5237's choice of the world One point is that time is long. The life of a mortal is only a short hundred years, and most of the plots are only in the best ten years or even a few years of youth, but in this world, ten years is just a short time for a monk. We could even spend hundreds of years together…”
Sui Yuan's throat choked: "...help..."
Xuan Ling: "What?"
"Help... QAQ"
Xuan Ling: "..."
In order to save himself on the bed, Sui Yuan pushed forward the plot desperately. Even if Xuan Ling wanted to procrastinate and often acted against others, he still couldn't stand up to the supervision of Sui Yuan, who knew his essence very well.
So, step by step, apart from having a Taoist partner and collaborators who are completely different, Sui Yuan is still firmly walking on the road of contradictory admiration while cheating the heroine. Similarly, under the secret promotion of him and Xuan Ling, Shao Peiyuan also got closer and closer to the heroine Shen Jiayi.
At first, it was just a mutual comfort because of the love loss (?) of the same object, and later it was a friendship that gradually deepened without the light bulb of Sui Yuan. As one of the important male supporting roles in the original book who loves the heroine, Shao Peiyuan finally gradually walked out of the secret love that he didn't even know about, and began to be attracted to Shen Jiayi as described in the original book, and Shen Jiayi naturally gradually developed a good impression of him , in short, the process of Shao Peiyuan's transformation from male supporting role to male lead is quite smooth.
Next, what Sui Yuan has to do is follow the original book and start to show his flaws, arousing Shen Jiayi's suspicion.
When Sui Yuan worked hard and finally pushed the plot to the eve of his own death, when he was able to say to Xuan Ling, "I'm going to die first, you continue to work hard", he was almost moved to tears .
Xuan Ling smiled slightly, and raised his hand to stroke his dog's head: "Don't worry, I will follow soon, and I will definitely not keep you waiting too long."
Sui Yuan: "... Please slow down."
"Hey, it's better not to have such unrealistic delusions." Xuan Ling's tone was particularly forgiving.
Sui Yuan&5237: "..."
In Xuanming Cave, Sui Yuan, who planned to seize the heroine's treasure, was instead lured by Shen Jiayi and stepped into the opponent's trap. The restrained Sui Yuan met the extremely sad, disappointed and heartbroken eyes of Shen Jiayi and Shao Peiyuan. "Hahaha" laughed wildly, spitting out blood, and finally said the lines that he had been thinking about for decades.
Every villain who is anti-human and anti-society has his own set of logic, and before they die, they will always publicize their own set of theories in front of the protagonist and the public—the role of Sui Yuan is no exception.
Ever since he became a Taoist couple with Xuan Ling, Sui Yuan has become a celebrity in the cultivation world. Naturally, everyone present knew him, but they never imagined that he was the man behind the scenes that they took the trouble to lure out.
After listening to Sui Yuan's words, Shen Jiayi and Shao Peiyuan became more and more sad: "Brother, we know that you are forced to become a Taoist partner with Master, and you feel pain in your heart, but this time, you really went on the wrong path... What did you want, Master? You will refuse, but why do you want to hurt others and benefit yourself? You do this... Have you ever thought about how sad Master will be? I can't believe that you have been together for so long, and you have no affection for him at all!"
Sui Yuan choked for a moment, silently rummaged through the original text, and found that there was no answer to this question!
Sui Yuan's silence made Shen Jiayi find a glimmer of hope. Just as she was making persistent efforts to persuade her once the most kind and upright senior brother, the sudden voice inserted into it made her eyes widen in shock.
"You're right, how can I refuse what he wants."
Xuan Ling, whose appearance had not changed for decades, appeared out of thin air. Although he was talking to Shen Jiayi, his eyes were always on Sui Yuan, who was covered in blood.
"Master?!" Shen Jiayi yelled in disbelief, "You, you've been here—did you always know?!"
"Yes, I've always known, even, I've been helping him in secret all this time." Xuan Ling replied softly, walked up to Sui Yuan's side, embraced him in his arms, and kissed his forehead lightly, not caring at all His body was stained with the other party's blood.
Shen Jiayi took a few steps back in shock, and was supported by Shao Peiyuan who was equally dazed and even a little unable to react.
She has always believed that the senior brother she likes is behind everything, and the master who has always cared for her has helped him to put himself in danger again and again. Shen Jiayi doesn't understand what's going on, it seems In an instant, the world suddenly turned black and white upside down.
"I know you may not believe it." Xuanling finally gave Shen Jiayi a look, with the tranquility after enlightenment, "But I really can't let him go. If he is a Buddha, I will be a Buddha. If he becomes a devil, I will be a devil." He went astray, I have no power to stop him, so I can only go along with him." Xuan Ling lowered his head, looked at Sui Yuan, who was staring at him hard in his arms, breathing rapidly, and slightly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a touch of peerless elegance With a slight smile, "If he dies, I will die."
Sui Yuan didn't catch his breath, and no matter how aggressive and ambitious he was, he was wiped out by Xuan Ling's affectionate confession. Sui Yuan couldn't think of anything else to say, and finally glared at Xuan Ling with some complaints. He glanced at him, then closed his eyes, and died decisively.
Xuan Ling's eyes dimmed, and he hugged him more tightly with one hand, as if trying to embed him deeply in his bosom, while the other hand held Sui Yuan's hand, interlocking his fingers.
For a long time, the two embracing each other did not move, but the people in the cave did not dare to be careless. Liu Minghui is fine, but Xuan Ling is a sword cultivator who has half stepped into the ascension stage. If he wants to avenge his Taoist companion, it is estimated that the entire cave, no, it should be said that the entire cultivation world cannot escape his thunderstorm. angry!
In the silence, Shen Jiayi and Shao Peiyuan, who were the first to be impatient, had a deep relationship with both of them.
Softly calling the names of the two, Shao Peiyuan blocked Shen Jiayi behind him, and he tentatively approached, but found that even when he got close to the two, the other party did not respond at all.
A huge fear instantly enveloped Shao Peiyuan. He quickly half-knelt down, raised his hand to brush the clasped hands of the two, but stopped suddenly.
"Peiyuan..." Shen Jiayi called softly, unable to hide his trembling, as if he was trying to prove something cautiously, but he was afraid of getting the final answer.
"They... are gone..." Shao Peiyuan said, suddenly a lump in his throat, and his vision was blurred by tears.
He and Shen Jiayi didn't want to kill Liu Minghui, they just wanted to expose him and put him back on the right track, but they didn't know that he was so violent, and after his deeds were revealed, they didn't give them any chance to explain and dissuade them, so they ended their lives in arrogance. s life.
And Xuan Ling... naturally went with him...
Shao Peiyuan seemed to recall when he was young, the day he first met Liu Minghui, the thin and short boy was stubborn and proud, like an insecure little beast who was wary of everyone around him, he couldn't help it I want to resolve his repulsion and gain his closeness.
The boy gradually grew up, became gentle and courteous, kind and made people want to trust and rely on, with almost no flaws. He remembered that he pulled himself back from the brink of death in a blessed way, but never mentioned it. It seemed that from that moment on, Liu Minghui's position in his heart had changed drastically.
His embarrassment, his smile, his peaceful and beautiful appearance under the moon, every frown and smile are engraved in his heart. It wasn't until he really fell in love with Shen Jiayi that Shao Peiyuan gradually realized that what he cared about Liu Minghui was not just friendship. , there is also a faint feeling that has not yet been discovered.
Even if he went the wrong way, even if he tried to hurt him and Shen Jiayi over and over again, Shao Peiyuan, who learned the truth, never had the slightest resentment towards him, and just wanted to pull him back from the quagmire of self-destruction … and that’s all…
Liu Minghui once saved his life, even if he was asked to pay it back with his life, Shao Peiyuan would never hesitate at all!
However, his understanding of Liu Minghui was not enough. He forgot how proud he was, and he couldn't tolerate any flaws in himself. How could he live in the world with such a stigma
If he had thought a little more and thought carefully, maybe... Liu Minghui would not have given up his life without hesitation
Beside her, there was the sound of her knees kneeling heavily. Shen Jiayi, who seldom cried, had tears streaming down her face. She didn't think she had done anything wrong, but she couldn't forgive her actions that led to the deaths of Liu Minghui and her master. Her forehead hit the ground heavily, and she didn't even notice it being worn out by the stones. Shen Jiayi whimpered, her body twitching a little. All this happened so fast that she had no time to react at all. What was left was only bone-chilling sadness, Fear and confusion.
"... This is their choice." Shao Peiyuan raised his hand, put his arm around Shen Jiayi's shoulder, and comforted him softly with his sobs choked.
Liu Minghui chose to put all his eggs in one basket, and then killed himself with the only dignity and pride when his deeds were exposed and his reputation was ruined. Xuan Ling also chose to stay with the person he loves, as he said just now, and will never change until death .
In the past, Liu Minghui went against his will, gave up his beloved woman because of pressure, put the sect as the most important thing, and became a Taoist partner with Xuan Ling, but he was not happy. How can an upright man be willing to lie under another man he doesn't love, and be secretly ridiculed and ridiculed by the rest? As a result, he gradually distorted and gave up on himself, trying to break free from such shackles at all costs, but as the existence that bound him, Xuan Ling loved him deeply, tolerated his actions, and even finally gave up because of love and guilt. With the opportunity of ascension close at hand, he chose to face death together with him.
The cycle of karma, retribution, no one knows who the culprit is, whether it is Xuan Ling's love, or Liu Minghui's hatred, we can only hope that at the moment they left - they did not regret it...
