Shuchen stared at Qiao Xuan, his eyes gradually became serious, and he said slowly: "Don't think about it."
Qiao Xuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you know what I'm thinking?"
Shuchen said: "You want to use the fire of chaos to fight against the Dao of Heaven. If you have this idea, I advise you to give up as soon as possible. It is not a power you can control at all..."
Qiao Xuan giggled: "You think too much, I, I'm sleepy and I'm going back..."
As he spoke, he staggered and walked back drunk.
Shu Chen grabbed his wrist, frowned and said in a low voice, "You really didn't..."
Qiao Xuan turned his head, fell on Shuchen, and fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.
Seeing Qiao Xuan drunk like this, Shu Chen showed a wry smile for a while, raised his hand and hugged Qiao Xuan back.
Xue Ming turned into a giant white wolf, lazily lying in front of Qiao Xuan's house, seeing Shu Chen coming back with Qiao Xuan in his arms, but he didn't show any surprise, he only glanced at Shu Chen indifferently, and moved away .
Shuchen walked in, carefully placed Qiao Xuan on the bed, covered him with the quilt, looked at him with a complicated expression, turned and walked out.
Seeing Shuchen come out, Xueming's golden eyes flickered, and then he said in a deep voice, "He went to Taichu?"
Shu Chen nodded.
Xueming lowered his head and closed his eyes again, lay down on the ground and continued to sleep.
Shu Chen showed surprise: "Don't you have anything to ask?"
Xue Ming opened a gap in his eyes, and said nonchalantly, "Wherever he wants to go and what he wants to do, I will stay by his side, and I'm not interested in the rest."
Shu Chen was slightly taken aback.
... ... ...
Qiao Xuan lay on the bed with his eyes open, the morning light leaked in through the gap in the window, he squinted his eyes.
After one night, my brain still hurts a little.
But what happened, I didn't forget it at all, I still remember it clearly.
Shu Chen's words really inspired him and gave him an idea, but this matter is not something that can be done on impulse, it is indeed too risky. As for the power of the fire that destroys the world, Qiao Xuan has also seen it with his own eyes. Not good, if I don't say that I lost my life, I'm afraid that I will really become a sinner who will destroy the world.
So we need to think long term.
The previous two times, the fire of chaos was delivered to the door by himself. Qiao Xuan didn't do anything. It can be seen that the power of the seal has indeed weakened after so many years, but those are the other two seals, Donggan Shengzun and Fuyi Great Emperor also died long ago...
This last seal must be in Master's Hanging Valley, but Master has been guarding it all the time, and it may not be as easy as before to open it.
But that's just the first step...
Qiao Xuan's purpose is not to destroy the world, but to get a bargaining chip to negotiate with Heaven, so he still needs to prepare.
Qiao Xuan pondered for a long time, sat up suddenly from the bed, opened the door and walked out.
Xue Ming lay on the ground, as if she hadn't moved all night, when she saw Qiao Xuan come out, she opened her eyes and took a look at him.
Qiao Xuan reached out and touched the giant wolf's head, and said softly: "I thought of a way to save Master, but it's very dangerous, I'm not sure..."
Xueming said: "I will help you."
Qiao Xuan was taken aback: "Don't you ask me what I'm going to do..."
Xueming said lazily, "Is this important?"
Qiao Xuanding stared at it for a long while, then smiled relievedly, yes, Xueming has always been like this, never questioning any of his decisions, never asking or talking, and silently by his side.
Thank you.
Qiao Xuan made up his mind and said with a smile, "I'm going out for a while, and I'll be back in a few days."
Xueming asked: "Do you need me to accompany you?"
Qiao Xuan said, "No need."
It's better for him to go alone.
... ... ...
The Yunhai Tiangong where Hualan is located seems a little deserted recently.
Because the emperor closed the door to thank guests, no one came for a long time, and a few fairy servants guarded the gate, doing nothing but chatting.
"Dijun has closed the door to thank guests for a long time, is it possible that he is preparing to retreat?"
"I don't know, since I came back from the Buddha's banquet last time, I have been in a bad mood."
"I know why! I heard that Dijun likes a person, and that person is Qingheng Jianjun's former Taoist partner. Dijun almost got into a fight with Jianjun at the banquet."
"Really, then Palace Master Mi Yun is going to die of anger."
"Isn't it? It's just that I haven't seen Palace Master Mi Yun for a long time. Could it be that he's also in retreat?"
A group of fairy servants discussed it enthusiastically. It has only been a few months since this incident, and there are various versions spread outside, and even Qiao Xuan's identity is rumored to be miraculous. It is said that he is the only phoenix in the Three Realms!
This celestial gossip is so interesting.
"So there are phoenixes in the Three Realms. If they are phoenixes, they are actually quite suitable for the emperor."
"But the Phoenix has many admirers..."
"You said Phoenix, does he like Dijun more, or Jianjun?"
Everyone's discussions are in full swing.
A bell rang suddenly at the gate of Tiangong, which meant that a visitor had come to visit.
The immortal attendants stopped discussing, and two of them immediately came out from the side door, and asked respectfully, "Which immortal is coming?"
Qiao Xuan stood at the gate of Tiangong, nodded and smiled: "Hanging River Valley, Qiao Xuan."
The fairy attendant started to be stunned, this young man looked unfamiliar, his name was not familiar, he looked like an unknown little fairy, what did he come to Yunhai Tiangong? Don't say it's the little fairy, even if the other gods are here, the emperor won't see him, so the fairy attendant said according to the emperor's order: "the emperor doesn't see outsiders, please go back to the god."
Qiao Xuan was not in a hurry, but said with a smile: "Please tell me, the emperor should meet me."
This fairy servant is a little impatient, where did he come from without eyesight, the emperor said he was gone, do you think that whoever came, the emperor should pay attention to it? Dijun doesn't even see other gods, if everyone wants him to communicate like this, Dijun won't be angry sooner
The Immortal Attendant's expression was a little cold, but his tone was quite polite: "The Emperor has already ordered me, and I haven't seen anyone during this time..."
As soon as he spoke, the fairy servant next to him stared at Qiao Xuan, looked left and right, seemed to suddenly think of something, poked the fairy servant beside him with his elbow, and said in a low voice: "Wait, Qiao Xuan, I remember the name." Where have you heard it!"
Speaking of which, the fairy servant raised his head to look at Qiao Xuan, and said respectfully, "Are you the Phoenix God of Hanging River Valley?"
Qiao Xuan nodded.
The other immortal servants were stunned immediately, staring blankly at Qiao Xuan.
The immortal attendant who asked Qiao Xuan was the most clever, and immediately said with a respectful smile: "Wait a moment, let me go and pass it on."
Although Dijun said that he would not see outsiders, this is Dijun's sweetheart, he almost turned against Jianjun because of him, and he ignored the years of friendship with Miyun Palace Mistress... Maybe even this retreat is because of frustration in love! Now that the person Dijun is thinking of has come to the door, if he and others block him in a daze, it will be really bad if he is found out in the future!
Qiao Xuan waited outside, but after a while, the fairy servant came out respectfully and welcomed Qiao Xuan in.
But he didn't take Qiao Xuan to the main hall, but went around and led him to the secret forbidden place where he found the puppet when he came to Tiangong for the first time, and then quietly retreated away.
This forbidden place is the same as before, it was built according to Qiao Xuan's mortal home in that life, but there is no ban now.
Qiao Xuan took a stroll in the courtyard and came to a quiet courtyard.
Hua Lan sat alone at the stone table under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree. Seeing Qiao Xuan approaching, she put down the wine glass in her hand and said with a complicated expression, "Why do you want to come?"
Qiao Xuan looked around, but he didn't see the puppet before. Could it be that he saw himself coming? So it was temporarily put away
That's right, after all, it's quite embarrassing to be face to face with your own puppet...
Hua Lan seemed to guess what he was thinking, and said slowly: "Since the old friend is still there, why bother to think about others."
Qiao Xuan was stunned for a moment, and smiled: "Yes."
The two looked at each other silently for a moment.
Seeing Hua Lan's silence, Qiao Xuan sighed. He sat in front of Hua Lan and said, "Actually, I told you before that I lied to you by cultivating the ruthless way."
Back then when they met in Nanyue Country in the Mortal Realm, in order to dispel Hua Lan's thoughts, he pretended to cut off love and hope that Hua Lan would let go.
Hua Lan's eyes moved slightly, she looked at Qiao Xuan deeply, her voice was hoarse: "Oh? Then why are you telling me now?"
Qiao Xuandao: "I came here because I wanted to borrow something from Dijun, and I asked Dijun to do me a favor. Since I need something from others, I should tell it honestly."
Hua Lan looked at Qiao Xuan.
Qiao Xuan then told everything he knew, the fire of chaos that destroyed the world in ancient times, the secrets of reincarnation in the three realms, and how he merged into the heavens and guarded the seal in the early days, and told Hua Lan that the ruins of Nanyue Kingdom were It was left by the ancient Dungan sage.
The Chaos Fire is now divided into three parts and sealed separately. Once the seals are completely destroyed and the Chaos Consciousness merges with the Chaos Fire, the disaster of annihilation will reappear.
Listening to all this, Hua Lan's eyes showed surprise, the reincarnation of the three realms, so it is.
Seeing that Hua Lan had almost digested it, Qiao Xuan said calmly: "And I am that chaotic consciousness, so the heaven wants me to die. I almost died under the catastrophe at the beginning... To save my life, Master sent I have gone through seven lifetimes of reincarnation, and one of them is He Dijun and you."
Hua Lan finally understood, and gave a wry smile. It turned out that he was just one of Qiao Xuan's Seven Love Tribulations.
Qiao Xuan shook his head and smiled: "So, the calamity is not for practicing, but just wanting to live every time, but you have also seen the result, in the end it is still a bad death."
Hua Lan twitched the corners of her mouth in a self-deprecating way: "In this way, if Tiandao borrows a knife to kill someone, I will be your catastrophe."
Qiao Xuan blinked: "That's right, but I didn't take it to heart."
Hua Lan's expression was dull.
Yes, there is no ruthlessness, and there is no love or hate.
Just didn't take it to heart.
That's all.
Hua Lan lowered her eyes and her voice was hoarse: "I see, what do you want me to do for you when you come here today?"
Qiao Xuan said slowly: "Master is about to die, God wants him to die, he has to die, but I want to save him, I want to gamble my luck..."
He got up, leaned into Hua Lan's ear, and whispered something.
Hua Lan's expression changed suddenly, he grabbed Qiao Xuan's hand suddenly, and said sharply, "Are you crazy?"
Qiao Xuanzhan smiled, his eyes brightened: "Of course not, I thought about it for a long time before I came up with such a solution."
Hua Lan's face was extremely serious: "Do you know how dangerous this is? Not only you, but also the Three Realms, you..."
Qiao Xuan said slowly: "Of course I know, and I don't want to die, so I ask you for help. Is the emperor willing to help?"
Hua Lan stared at him fixedly, with desolate and lonely eyes.
Although it was just a lifetime of catastrophe for you, didn't the feelings between us really exist in that lifetime? Why are you able to let go of me so completely and don't care about it, but you can do this to the beginning...
I don't know if you are affectionate or fickle.
Seeing Hualan's appearance, Qiao Xuan sighed, and said, "I know, this matter has made the emperor embarrassed, but if there is no other way, I don't want to go this far. Don't worry, I will never die even if I die myself." It will not harm the Three Realms."
Hua Lan's voice trembled slightly: "You know that what I care about is not just the Three Realms..."
Qiao Xuanding looked at him, and suddenly said softly, "Your Majesty, I always knew that you cared about me."
Hua Lan's expression was shocked, he never thought that Qiao Xuan would call him like this.
Qiao Xuan's eyes were gentle, "I know my request, and it's embarrassing for Your Majesty, but you promised me back then, but you didn't do it until you died... After many years, I'm a human again, and now I want to boldly ask Your Majesty for a promise, May Your Majesty wish to do as I wish?"
Hua Lan looked at the boy in front of him in pain, you deliberately asked me, looked at me, begged me...
It is because I am sure that I cannot refuse your request.
So, this is your choice.
You have to do this for the sake of the beginning, even at the expense of begging me...
It's not that I don't love you, but it's a pity that I'm not the one you want.
Hua Lan smiled wryly, and nodded slowly after a long time.
Thousands of years ago, I watched you die in a sea of flames, and after all, I couldn't promise you a lifetime. This time, how can I refuse your request.
... ... ...
Qiao Xuan left from Yunhai Tiangong, flew for more than a month, asked many immortals along the way, and finally came to the gate of Guiyuan Sword Sect in the heavenly realm.
He looked up at the stretching mountain ranges in front of him with a misty fairy air.
Guiyuan Jianzong's territory is quite large, with a radius of thousands of miles and no people inhabited.
It was Qiao Xuan's first time here, and he was completely unfamiliar with it, and he didn't know how to get in, so he had to walk around outside.
Fortunately, he was lucky. Not long after, he met two disciples patrolling the mountain.
The two disciples were wearing uniform white robes, carrying long swords, looked at Qiao Xuan vigilantly, and said, "Who is your Excellency?"
Qiao Xuan cupped his hands with a smile, and said: "Xuanhe Valley, Qiao Xuan, come to pay a visit to Sword Lord Qingheng."
The disciple said impatiently: "Mr. Jian retreated and saw no one."
It seems that he has never heard of himself, and the sword cultivators here are isolated from the world at first glance, so the news is too ill-informed! But if this is the case, it will be a bit difficult to meet Jiang Weiqing directly.
It is unimaginable that when he first came to the heaven, a know-it-all like Wu Zimo turned out to be a disciple of Guiyuan Sword Sect...
"This is the territory of Guiyuan Sword Sect. If you have nothing else to do, please leave as soon as possible." The patrolling disciple said with a serious look.
Qiao Xuan was shut down, and pressed his forehead in distress.
But of course he couldn't just leave like this. It is impossible to expect these two disciples to pass on the pass, but Guiyuan Sword Sect is a well-known master of the heavenly world, and he himself does not have the ability to break through alone. He did not expect to be blocked at the door , Qiao Xuan couldn't help frowning and thinking...
Seeing that Qiao Xuan still refused to leave, the disciple urged him again with a serious expression: "Your Excellency, please leave as soon as possible!"
Well guarded...
Qiao Xuan suddenly clapped his hands, thinking of a way! With a wave of his hand, Guyuan Sword appeared in his hand!
Seeing that the young man in front of him not only didn't leave, but also suddenly drew his sword, the disciple suddenly pointed his sword at Qiao Xuan, and at the same time sent out an alarm signal! This young man looked imposing, and he drew his sword without saying a word. I'm afraid he didn't come to trouble Guiyuan Jianzong!
Although I don't know who doesn't have eyesight in the heavens and dares to come to Guiyuan Jianzong to find trouble, but I'm afraid it has some skills to dare to do so.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen beams of light flew over, and all the disciples surrounded Qiao Xuan, shouting: "What are you going to do?!"
Qiao Xuan: "..."
He looked down at the sword in his hand, and quickly explained with a smile: "Misunderstanding, I am not here to fight."
But no one believed it.
Seeing that the atmosphere is tense.
Qiao Xuan was also a little helpless, he really didn't want to make a move, he stared down at the sword in his hand.
This Guyuan sword is a pair with Jiang Weiqing's natal spirit sword Jiguang. They used to be Taoist couples, and their hearts and minds were connected. In that life, Fengxuan was gone, and Jiang Weiqing and Jiang Weiqing had no Taoist relationship. It stands to reason that they were two people who had no relationship for a long time...
I don't know if this method still works.
No matter, try it first.
Qiao Xuan lightly brushed the blade of the long sword with one hand, and the blade made a clear sound like water, and the energy scattered...
When those disciples saw Qiao Xuan move the sword, their expressions immediately turned serious, and they shot without hesitation!
Qiao Xuan quickly turned around and blasted those disciples out with a sword. He was an adult phoenix after all, so these ordinary disciples naturally had nothing to do with him.
Although it was just one move, all the disciples changed their expressions and looked at Qiao Xuan solemnly. This young man is very powerful...
Just as he was about to ask the elders of the sect for help, a white figure suddenly appeared in front of everyone like a stream of light.
The disciples were startled, and bowed again and again: "Sword Lord."
Seeing Jiang Weiqing came out, their hearts fell back. No matter how powerful this young man is, he will never be the opponent of Jianjun, but... before he and others have time to ask for help, how come Jianjun just arrived? It must be too much of a coincidence...
What's wrong
When all the disciples were a little confused, they saw Jiang Weiqing looking straight at Qiao Xuan with a sigh of emotion, "I thought you would never come to see me again."
Disciples: ... What? Is he really Jianjun's old friend? !
Jiang Weiqing silently looked at Qiao Xuan with dark and complicated eyes.
After the farewell to Beilinghai, his Dao heart was completely destroyed, so he returned to Guiyuan Sword Sect, retreated and ignored world affairs, but he didn't want to feel the call of Guyuan Sword, so he appeared to meet each other.
Qiao Xuan withdrew his sword and smiled slightly: "Take a step to talk?"
Jiang Weiqing said, "Okay."
This time, no one stopped him. Qiao Xuan followed Jiang Weiqing into the Guiyuan Sword Sect in spite of everyone's curious eyes, and looked left and right curiously. This is the number one sword sect in the heavens.
If he hadn't been so useless in that life, he should have joined this sect after he became a fairy.
The mountain where Jiang Weiqing retreated was very deserted, uninhabited, and there was only a simple bamboo garden. He lowered his eyes and said lightly: "The environment is simple, I'm laughing at you."
Qiao Xuan said with a smile: "It's okay, I'll just say a few words and leave."
Jiang Weiqing nodded: "If you have something to say, just say it, as long as I can do it, I will definitely not refuse."
Qiao Xuan raised his eyebrows.
Jiang Weiqing twitched the corners of his mouth, and laughed at himself: "If you have nothing to ask, how could you come to see me, and..." It must not be a simple matter, so that you will not hesitate to come to see me.
Qiao Xuan smiled, it's easy to talk to smart people, so you don't need to waste your time.
"Everyone says that Sword Lord Qingheng is the number one sword cultivator in the world. He can cut everything with a single sword, and with a sword in his hand, he can become a god..." Qiao Xuan said slowly: "Sword Lord His accomplishments in the way of the sword are recognized by the heavens."
"It's just someone else's reputation. There is still a long way to go before we can really see the limit of the heaven..." Jiang Wei said lightly: "And I am destined to stop here and make no progress. You know this in your heart, don't you?"
Qiao Xuan nodded: "I understand, so I came here today, and I want to ask Sword Lord to do me a favor. If it works, it will be the best of both worlds."
Jiang Weiqing looked at him.
"It's a long story, let me talk about it slowly..." Qiao Xuan was not polite, sat down and poured himself a cup of tea, and told Jiang Weiqing about the reincarnation of the three realms and the fire of chaos. over again.
Jiang Weiqing kept his expression calm all the time. After hearing Qiao Xuan's words, he said in a calm tone: "There will be reincarnation in the three realms, even the Dao of Heaven can't do anything about it. That's why."
"I don't care about reincarnation, but I want to save my master. I'm going to open the last seal, but it's very risky to do so. I'm not sure I'll get out..." Qiao Xuan paused, his eyebrows curled up , smiled and said: "Just in case, if I fail, I hope Lord Jian can kill me, so as not to seriously harm the people of the world."
Jiang Weiqing's expression finally changed, he stared at Qiao Xuan with anger and sadness in his eyes.
Qiao Xuan didn't seem to see it, and said lightly: "As long as Lord Jian is willing to help me, no matter whether it succeeds or not, the grievances and grievances of the previous life will be wiped out. From then on, you will not owe me anything..."
Jiang Weiqing's face was pale, and his lips trembled.
Qiao Xuan looked at him and said word by word: "With my forgiveness, you let yourself go. From now on, there will be no hindrance in your Taoist heart. After you break it, you will stand up again. It may be that there is no chance to go further... In this way, you and I will both get what we want, don't we?" Isn't it the best of both worlds?"
Jiang Weiqing took a deep breath and smiled miserably: "Yes, it's really the best of both worlds."
In order to save another person, you want me to kill you with my own hands...
let me kill you again...
He also said that he would forgive me... Even the debt I owe you, I will let go of it, nothing will be left behind.
Really, very cruel.
Qiao Xuan looked at Jiang Weiqing, and said slowly: "Don't worry, I cherish my life very much, and I don't want to die. If I succeed, Jianjun naturally doesn't need to do anything. In short... as long as you go this time, what I just said will count. ,what do you think?"
"Mr. Jian said just now that as long as you can do something, you will definitely not refuse. Do you have to go back on your word?" Qiao Xuan raised his eyebrows and looked at him deeply.
Jiang Weiqing's Adam's apple rolled, and he looked at the boy in front of him in pain.
The boy is still smiling...
After a long time, Jiang Weiqing closed his eyes, opened his thin lips slightly, and seemed to use all his strength to spit out a word: "Okay."
If so, that's what you want.
I promise you.
