Late winter, New Year.
The five Qingfeng sects did not agree to the request of the Wanjian Sect, so the two sides agreed to fight. As a result, the sect that protected the Qi Kingdom found that even though it had developed for two hundred years, it was still far inferior to the Wanjian Sect, and was defeated in three battles.
Immediately afterwards, the prince held the jade seal in his hand, rode a thousand-mile horse, and traveled thousands of miles to Wanjian Sect to pay homage to the sect leader.
It's been more than a month since I left.
The New Year in the capital is decorated with lights, firecrackers sound, fireworks bloom, children play and chase each other, and everyone puts on new clothes and walks on the streets.
Xia Ji is fifteen years old.
He has completely re-adapted to the way of life as a human being, and his strength has become stronger due to the accumulation of these years, and he has become more persistent in his heart.
As for running out and saying that you are a master, only a fool would do it.
I don’t know where the nine ancestors are now, the water in the world is so deep.
He and Su Tian are no longer related by blood, and he has no idea what her attitude is.
And if you say you are the Master, will others believe it
Besides, what kind of monster is a person who was dragged away by the source of tribulation and disappeared for thousands of years but then returned
People's hearts are fickle and can change in a moment, and there are many who go back on their word, let alone after a thousand years
Believe it or not believe it or try to prove it, the same stupidity...
Because, this is already a universe where one person's power and one person's way can conquer the world and cover the whole world.
Xia Ji vaguely remembered the fairy tales of his previous life. Among the Three Purities, Tongtian and Yuanshi both had disciples all over the world, but their strength was not as good as their elder brother. However, the elder elder brother and Hongjun were average and avoided those mundane affairs. , while pursuing his own path.
…
years later.
The prince who went to Wanjian Sect is back.
Still miserable.
Because the sect leader of Wanjian Sect did not need one person to come to see him, but the entire Daqi royal family. As punishment, the sect leader ordered everyone in the Daqi royal family to arrive within ten days.
Everyone was stunned and didn't know what to do for a while.
On this journey of thousands of miles... Qi Xiu was afraid that he would die halfway.
Moreover, traveling more than 10,000 miles in ten days, there are rugged mountain roads, frozen waterways, evil cultivators of bandits, etc. This is simply life-threatening.
At this time, the seventeenth prince came out and said that he would go alone and the matter would be resolved.
What he said was naturally unreliable, but the commander-in-chief actually vouched for him.
When Commander Jin spoke, the weight suddenly became much heavier.
Everyone looked at the commander's solemn and solemn look and guessed that this mysterious strong man might have an old acquaintance with the Wanjian Sect, so they asked the disciples to go...
Thinking of this, the Qi royal family breathed a sigh of relief.
No one thought much about anything else.
First of all, no one would deliberately commit suicide.
Secondly, the Seventeenth Prince is not a young and energetic person.
Thirdly, even if the Seventeenth Prince was stupid, the Commander-in-Chief was not stupid. He was naturally very confident before he dared to do this, and it seemed that he himself did not intend to go. This was obviously because his relationship with Wanjian Sect had reached a certain level.
Even Hua Xiaochan didn't think much when she saw her son's calm appearance. She just warned him to be careful on the road, and wanted to beg the emperor to arrange some guards to go with him. After all, his son came first. This time I traveled far away, and I didn't know that the world was dangerous and people's hearts were complicated.
Xia Ji smiled and said it was okay.
Hua Xiaochan was worried, and Qi Xiu also planned to send a thousand experts to accompany him for protection.
Then, Xia Ji asked Xiao Su to take good care of his home, so he left a letter directly, took the Qi State Jade Seal, and walked out of the capital city where he had stayed for fifteen years.
If he wants to leave, who can catch up
When Qi Xiu found out, he immediately asked people to search everywhere.
But when thousands of people rode out of the city, Xia Ji had long since disappeared.
…
At this time, in the palace.
Prince Qi Heng experienced a tragic defeat of Feglai Kingdom and a humiliation of Wanjian Sect, and he was drowning his sorrows in wine.
One failure can destroy a person, let alone two
If he can still drink here without being destroyed, he has a strong mind.
However, he began to doubt himself crazily.
Suddenly, there was a report outside the court, coming from afar.
"The Queen has arrived~~~"
Qi Heng didn't get up either. He just drank the bitter wine by himself.
Not long.
A dignified woman wrapped in a golden phoenix robe walked into the courtyard.
This is the queen.
The queen rebuked the accompanying father-in-law, sat alone opposite the prince, and said coldly: "See what you look like now?"
Even though the prince felt angry and aggrieved in his heart, he would not vent it to his mother, so he let out a long sigh.
The queen suddenly said: "Do you feel that all your glory has been taken away by Qi Shi?"
The prince raised his head in astonishment: "Mother... I don't have this intention."
The queen took a deep look at him and lowered her voice: "Today, mother will tell you a secret. With this secret, you will be like grabbing a bargaining chip, and you will no longer have to worry about Seventeen."
She took a deep breath and said in a very low voice: "Your seventeenth brother was a little sick when he was born. My mother asked the palace maid to pick him up and see the imperial doctor. As a result, the palace maid accidentally dropped the baby into the lotus pond...
My mother was helpless for a moment, so she hurriedly asked people to find a baby boy among the people to act as your seventeenth brother. As a result, she happened to find a baby boy who was abandoned by the river.
Therefore, your seventeenth brother is not a member of the royal family of my Qi Kingdom at all, nor does my royal blood flow in his body. He is just an ordinary abandoned baby in the mountains. "
The prince was stunned.
He is not stupid, so he naturally knows that there are many embellishments in his mother's words.
This is basically because his mother had the real seventeenth prince drowned and then replaced him with another.
He also probably knew the reason. Concubine Chan had sinned against the queen severely, and the Hua family had also confronted the queen's family.
But he is not naive either. He has participated in the battle to seize the legitimate son, and his hands have been stained with the blood of many sins. Naturally, he will not denounce why his mother was so cruel in the harem battle.
only…
He was shocked.
The Seventeenth Brother is actually just an ordinary abandoned baby
Silence for a few seconds...
The prince suddenly raised his head. He stopped drinking. He leaned forward and suddenly approached the queen. He lowered his voice and said, "Mother, you are wrong."
The queen looked confused, "Are you weird... did you do something wrong for your mother? Shouldn't you have found an abandoned baby?"
The prince shook his head: "No."
"what is that?"
"My son is saying that the queen mother made a mistake."
The queen became more and more confused...
The prince continued: "Qi Yu is my seventeenth brother, my brother whose blood is thicker than water. He saved my life, and now he has gone to Wanjian Sect.
He is my brother, not some abandoned baby.
In this case, the queen mother must have made a mistake.
There was no palace maid who accidentally dropped the baby in the lotus pond, nor was there any baby boy who happened to be picked up. "
The queen was stunned.
She looked at her son in front of her for a long time, smiled, and said gently: "Drink less, don't let your ambition be sapped."
After saying that, she stood up and left.
It seems that the prince is fine.
And I really should forget this secret forever.
When the queen returned to the palace, she thought for a while and suddenly said to the eunuch who was hanging her head beside her: "Rouge, who just arrived a few days ago, sent half of her son to Concubine Chan."
The old eunuch raised his head in surprise, as if to say, "Don't you and Concubine Chan never get along with each other... And that rouge is your favorite quality product. If you apply a little bit, you will be so beautiful."
The queen said: "Not only do I want to give her rouge, but I also want to treat her as a good sister from now on. She must have everything I have."
The old eunuch didn't understand, but that didn't stop him from knowing that the direction of the wind had changed, and it was probably related to the Seventeenth Son. This was not something he should be concerned about, so he respectfully agreed "Promise."
…
…
"Qi Yu, the seventeenth prince of the Qi Kingdom, asks to see the leader of the Wanjian Sect."
The sound penetrated the falling snow, going against the hillside and along the stone steps to the top of the mountain above.
The sound reached the top of the mountain, passed through the Wanjian Sect disciples who were on duty in front of the gate, and jumped up again, heading towards the towering tower in the vast sea of clouds. There was no way up the mountain, no way down the mountain, and the flying swords came and went. The Yunzhong sect with the treasure pounced.
Xia Ji wore plain clothes and stepped forward.
The disciples of the Wanjian Sect on duty then reacted and faced him directly.
Although they were shocked by the strength of these seventeen princes, the disciples on duty only regarded them as princes with dual identities of the royal family and the sect.
The leader said coldly: "No matter who you are, when you come to my Wanjian Sect, you will hide if you are a dragon, and you will lie down if you are a tiger. You are so loud, do you really think you are so great? Ignorance!"
Another person smiled and said: "The sect master said that he wants the royal family of Qi to come down and pay homage. Where are the others?"
Xia Jidao: "If the Qi Kingdom wants to surrender, it's enough for me to come here alone."
All the disciples on duty were stunned, and then some couldn't help but laugh.
"Come here and surrender. How dare you talk like this?"
"Kneel down on the mountainside first. After I go and report to the sect, I will listen to you. But if you, Qi State, do not respect my sect's orders and have not arrived yet, then... "
While the disciples on duty were talking, a figure suddenly flew out from the sea of colorful neon fog in the distance.
The figure was also dressed in white, stepping on a twelve sword wheel, coming from the clouds and mist, showing that he was not weak in strength.
When he stood in front of him, he saw a woman with the appearance of a fairy-like girl.
The woman in white has a beautiful face, long tangled hair, and a pair of clear eyes, but there is a bit of invisible black energy flowing in them. This is the energy of bad karma, but from this we can also know that she is a powerful person in the thirteenth realm. or.
As soon as she arrived, the disciples on duty hurriedly bowed their heads respectfully and said, "I have seen the Flute Fairy."
The woman in white ignored them.
She glanced at Xia Ji, revealing a bit of ridicule and indifference.
"Are you the only one in the Qi royal family
Or are you saying that you don’t take my words, the master of Wanjian Sect, seriously
Or do you think you are proud enough? "
Xia Jidao: "None of them."
The woman in white said: "The ten-day deadline has expired, and the sect leader will not give you a second chance. In this case... there is no need for your Daqi royal family to exist."
Xia Jidao: "I come sincerely."
The woman in white said: "So what?"
After saying that, she shook her head, scorning the young man in front of her like dust on the ground, and said calmly: "I just want to test my sword formation on you."
As soon as she finished speaking, the disciples on duty hurriedly stepped aside, and at the same time they looked expectant, ready to see how this fairy would perform, and maybe they could learn something from it and see the future path clearly.
Fairy Nongxiao is the grandson daughter of the leader of Wanjian Sect.
The leader is extremely powerful.
It is said that the sect leader existed 1,500 years ago. At that time, the Wanjian Sect was not called the Wanjian Sect, but was called the Wanjian Villa. The current sect leader took over the position of the sect leader after marrying the sect owner’s daughter.
The flute fairy is naturally strong, and she has lived for at least a thousand years.
At this time, she slowly raised her fingers upwards.
The twelve sword wheels suspended behind her shimmered with cold light, each showing a Dharma form. The twelve stacked Dharma forms quickly turned into one. The twelve Sword Wheels seemed to merge into one, piercing the sky. Their light was as bright as a sword. Frozen lightning.
The divine power of heaven and earth gathered together, and the depressing mountaintop here felt like a sudden increase in gravity. Even people standing still felt like they were carrying a heavy iron box on their shoulders...
The disciples on duty at the top of the mountain were dumbfounded.
I feel so strong from the bottom of my heart...
Fairy Nongxiao never looked at the boy opposite her from beginning to end. Instead, she was appreciating and thinking about the power of her sword, and then she pushed it casually.
The still lightning struck forward in an instant, and what came out with it was the power of heaven and earth here.
The wind was howling, the clouds were rolling, and the trees were about to be uprooted. It was like a wind-swept electric dragon violently pushing out from between her jade fingers. The short distance of more than ten feet was completed without even a thought. arrive.
Xia Ji waved his hand and swatted away this extremely sharp sword that contained the power of heaven and earth.
A sword flew out and scattered into twelve swords in the air.
clang clang clang…
Twelve flying swords fell to the ground in a messy manner and were stuck on the ground.
Immediately afterwards, there was another "click" sound.
The sword shattered.
The flute fairy stayed where she was...
Xia Ji looked at her with a smile.
This fairy is experimenting on him, isn't he also experimenting on this fairy
Over the years, he probably understood that the thirteen realms are called karma realms. Bad karma can temporarily lower the level of the dharma body, and good karma can temporarily raise the level of the dharma body.
Therefore, since he had already shot away someone's flying sword that was mixed with the magical powers of the 12th realm, he was waiting for her attack from the 13th realm.
The flute fairy looked at that smiling face and felt disgusting.
The next moment, she decided to directly use the karma of the Thirteenth Realm to temporarily reduce the strength of the young man in front of her from the Dharmakaya level, making him weak, and then take action.
It's too late, it's fast.
Almost at the same time as the flying sword heard the sound of shattering, Fairy Nongxiao had already taken action. The evil karma around her body flowed rapidly, and a "black indescribable, formless ball floating" condensed behind her.
Then, she raised her hand a little.
The black aura "flyed" out as she wished.
Or…
This is not a flying shot.
Because this breath does not reach the target through space, but has another "dimension".
Xia Ji felt this bad karma.
He tried his best to feel it.
It seemed like something was pushing his body.
It seems not.
It doesn't feel particularly clear.
And just when he was trying hard to feel this power, the fairy in white on the opposite side had already let out a scream, and collapsed to the ground, as if going crazy, his eyes turned white, and his hands began to grab at random. On the ground, his legs kicked wildly.
At the same time, the bad karma that entangled him disappeared instantly.
Xia Ji was shocked. He didn't feel the power of the Thirteenth Realm!
