In the evening, Ling Li and Ling Qinglan finally returned from the palace, with a team of guards behind them carrying boxes, which were obviously gold and silver jewels given by Dongfang Xiao.
Entering the palace to meet the saint and receiving a reward was a great event that would bring glory to one's family. The Ling family could not avoid having a family banquet organized by Qiu Meng at night, which was quite lively.
The only thing that Qiu Meng felt regretful was that Ling Ping was still supervising the war at the border and could not come back to reunite.
"Aunt, don't worry. The second brother has his own destiny. How many times have he been on the battlefield over the years and he still isn't fine? Now that he is the marshal, he doesn't have to fight by himself in the battle, so he is naturally safer."
Ling Qinglan comforted her, which finally made Qiu Meng's sad expression a little relieved. After the case was closed, once the pressure on the Ling family was relieved, he could free up his energy to focus on the war. Ling Mo had already arrived at the border. Regardless of the outcome of the war, the outcome of Ling Ping's life was Absolutely no problem.
At this time, the ancient Taijun, who had been silent for a long time, slowly said: "Qinglan, don't put too much pressure on yourself. The Ling family is not as fragile as you think. I won't be able to hold on for a few more years with my old bones." question."
"Mom, our family is fine now. Is there any danger? It depends on what you said."
Qiu Meng couldn't help but say.
The ancient Taijun smiled, but secretly sighed in his heart, Qiu Meng... wasn't it that she was attracted to this girl who was simple-minded and would not bully the honest and honest Ling Feng
But because of this, she couldn't see the dangerous situation the Ling family was in now. Qing Lan has made such a great contribution, but Dongfang Xiao only rewarded her with some useless gold, silver and jewels, and didn't even mention it when she was promoted. How can this not explain the problem
It's a pity that the only people in the Ling family who can see this now are Ling Ping and Ling Qinglan who are away at war, except for this old guy like her.
As for Ling Li...
The ancient Taijun glanced at Lingli who was still secretly flirting with Su Li. He felt helpless and nodded: "Okay, let's not talk about it. In short, Qinglan, do your best and don't take risks."
"I understand."
Ling Qinglan nodded slightly, the conversation ended, and the family banquet finally came to an end in a more relaxed tone.
After the meal, everyone took a rest. Ling Li returned to the east courtyard and looked at Ling Li who had a calm expression and hesitated several times. In the end, he didn't ask a word and just said: "I will sleep in the study tonight." Then he turned the wheelchair and left.
Su Li looked at his leaving figure, her eyes gradually softened, and then mixed with many reluctant and unclear emotions. In the end, all the complex meanings turned into coldness and determination.
Ling Li should have gone to refine the elixir she gave her. Of course, she did not prepare this elixir for herself, but condensed it specifically for Ling Li!
The elixir contained nothing but her own five hundred years of experience! With such pure power, if Ling Li could absorb 50% of it, he would not only be able to break through the Immortality Realm, but he could even be quickly promoted to the first level of the Immortality Realm!
"The battle in Gushan was not difficult. It only took thirty years of my inner strength. The other twenty years of my inner strength...were all wasted on the road."
Su Li sat in front of the dressing table and looked at the person in the mirror quietly. To be precise, she looked at the newly inserted red jade gold hairpin on her head.
That was what Ling Li secretly stuffed to her during the family dinner just now.
"One shot, fifty years of experience is not much."
Su Li took off the hairpin on her head and rubbed it gently, "The consumption of the foundation after sealing the cultivation is smaller than I thought, but can I really stay with him like this? Really, can I..."
Suddenly, the window of the side door of the wing
The bag suddenly opened, and a figure appeared silently behind Su Li, respectfully saying: "See the Great Holy Lord!"
Su Li turned around slowly and saw the person coming, it was Qu Xiao.
She nodded expressionlessly, "Did Jing Xin ask you to come? Also, why did you call me the Great Holy Master?"
Qu Xiao did not dare to be disrespectful at all, he bent down and offered a wooden box with both hands, and then said: "The Holy Lord has declared that you will be the Lord. No one of the twelve masters dares to disobey! Now the True Spirit Building is gathering troops, ready at any time Wait for the Great Holy Lord to give orders!"
Su Li took the wooden box, but did not open it immediately. Instead, he said: "The heart of the mirror is the heart of the mirror, and I am me. If you are not convinced, you can raise it yourself. There is no need to compromise."
When Qu Xiao heard this, he immediately showed fear on his face and said hurriedly: "The Great Holy Lord has misunderstood! We, the Twelve Builders, are willing to go through fire and water for the Holy Lord, and our lives are ruined! We have no grievances at all, and we ask the Great Holy Lord to show his understanding!"
Su Li frowned slightly. She didn't understand why Qu Xiao was so loyal to Zhen Lingzhu, but that was fine...
"You go and guard outside first, don't be discovered by people in the house. If there is any trouble, alert me immediately."
"yes!"
After Qu Xiao retreated, Su Li opened the wooden box, and immediately a ray of light flew out from the gap and turned into an illusory figure, which was exactly what the mirror looked like.
Understanding!
This is a recognition.
This word naturally crossed Su Li's mind, and she wanted to recall it further, but found that it was completely blank and could not recall more.
Fortunately, at this time Jing Xin opened his mouth to explain: "Master, the spirit body sent from the outside this time is very powerful. I couldn't stand a stalemate with it. It took many days to find a gap. A consciousness separated from the main body. Although It doesn’t have any combat effectiveness, and it won’t last long, but it’s enough to communicate with you.”
As she said that, she pointed to the transparent master in the wooden box, "This is the soul-sealing bead, which is Mei Ruohan's original soul. After I dealt with the spirit body, I went to investigate in person and found that something happened to Mei Ruohan. Due to an incredible change, two souls were born in her body! One soul belongs to the main body, but the other one was created after entering the mirror of reincarnation! "
"What's the meaning?"
Su Li frowned. Her memory had not yet recovered and she could not understand Jing Xin's words at all.
Jing Xin had no choice but to continue to explain patiently: "Master, no matter you are a monk or an ordinary person, there can only be one soul in a body. This is beyond doubt."
Su Li reacted and her eyes flashed slightly, "So, after Mei Ruohan's new soul woke up and gained its own consciousness, it stimulated the original soul and revived it?"
"good!"
Jing Xin's face was full of regret, "The old soul awakened and naturally restored all its original memories, so it tricked you, the master, into breaking the ring. Unfortunately, at that time, the external spirit body suddenly lost its mind and went crazy. In order not to offend the sects outside, I abandoned it. It took a lot of effort to suppress it. Now that I think about it, it was all their conspiracy to distract me! If I had noticed it earlier, maybe Master... "
"That's all, don't mention what has already happened."
Su Li waved her hand to stop Jing Xin from continuing. Her eyes were fixed on the soul-sealing bead for a long time, and then she suddenly said:
"Jing Xin, since you are the mirror spirit of the Samsara Mirror, this illusion should be within your control. Can you directly destroy the Dahan Kingdom royal family?"
Hearing this, Jing Xin smiled bitterly, "Master, you think too highly of me. Not to mention that I am not the real mirror spirit of the Samsara Mirror. There is no master in the Dongfang Family. Do you think so?"
Simple? They have an extremely close relationship with Xiaoshen Palace! "
Xiaoshen Palace
Su Li was slightly confused when he heard this, then his expression changed and he blurted out: "The overlord sect in the true spirit world, Xiao Shen Palace?"
"Master, you are right. It is the Xiaoshen Palace. Xiaoshen Palace has a very long history. It is said that there are ancestors of the supernatural realm in the palace. Even if I take action, I may not be my opponent."
Su Li's breath was stagnant. She had never heard of this word. It must be the realm of immortality. The ninth level of immortality. The difference in strength at each level is incomprehensible. And the ancestor of Xiaoshen Palace Surpassed the realm of immortality? !
"There is another point. I have wanted to tell the master for a long time, but there was not enough time last time. It was delayed until now to explain to the master face to face."
Su Li nodded to express his understanding, "It's not too late to say it now."
Jing Xin showed a helpless look, "I told you last time, I sacrificed myself to forcefully enter the Samsara Mirror out of helplessness. Although it was a blessing in disguise that I became a mirror spirit with an endless lifespan, I knew it the moment I became a mirror spirit. , there is an extremely terrifying existence sleeping in this reincarnation mirror! That existence is the real mirror spirit, and I...maybe just its unconsciously chosen agent."
Su Li's heart was slightly shaken. Jing Xin was just an agent. No wonder he couldn't fully control this treasure.
"Master, this illusion you are in is not actually an illusion in the complete sense. Strictly speaking, there are three types of people living in the illusion now."
"Three kinds?"
Su Li was slightly surprised. Apart from their group of outsiders, there were actually two kinds of people
Jing Xin nodded cautiously: "The first type is outsiders like the master who have only entered it in the past hundred years. The second type is the spiritual wisdom derived from the illusion, just like Qu Xiao, in the strict sense To me, they are not human beings!"
Su Li glanced at Qu Xiao, who was still waiting respectfully outside the door. She didn't look like another species.
"Because existences like Qu Xiao are transformed into illusions, so as long as the illusion exists, they can have eternal life. Even if they are killed, it will take a while to re-condensate! However, the re-condensed intelligence will not Having the original memory will facilitate my brainwashing and control."
At this point, Su Li finally understood where Qu Xiao's loyalty came from. A blank piece of paper was the easiest thing to brainwash.
"What about the third type of person?"
When Su Li asked again, Jing Xin's face instantly became solemn and her tone became lower:
"The last type is... the ancient beings who were trapped in this illusion a long time ago. Although they are trapped, they are not controlled by the illusion of reincarnation. No matter how many lives the illusion reincarnates, they can transcend it. Carefree and at ease, not showing off."
Su Li's heart tightened slightly, and she immediately thought of the old beggar. The vague illusion of being unable to integrate into the world that he felt from him, wasn't it exactly what Jing Xin said? !
"My abilities are limited. I don't know how many of those exist in the illusion and what their strength is. The only ones who can find out are the ancestors of the Xiaoshen Palace."
After Jing Xin shook her head, her figure had become blurry and would soon disappear.
But this time, she was obviously no longer in a hurry. She had said everything she needed to say, and the rest was up to the master to decide.
"Master, I left a secret formula in the wooden box. If you can master it, maybe..."
Perhaps Su Li didn't hear it because Jing Xin's consciousness had dissipated.
