The veil fell to the ground, so light that there was no sound.
Lu Xiao's pupils suddenly tightened.
The man in the cage had thick, long black hair that cascaded down like a waterfall in the fierce sword wind. On his snow-white body, there was only a thin strand of dark green satin around his waist. He curled up in the broken cage, looking at Lu Xiao in astonishment and bewilderment, looking extremely embarrassed.
Lu Xiao stared at him blankly.
On the handsome face of the young emperor who was originally indifferent and stern, there was only a complete blank at this moment, and even the ruthless thin lips were trembling unconsciously.
"You, you..." His voice trembled uncontrollably.
Qiu Yutong was about to blurt out "Xiao'er, what's the matter?", but suddenly reacted, and shut his mouth suddenly at the nick of time—his almost half-naked attire and his embarrassing identity were too embarrassing , It's too embarrassing.
What's more, even he himself doesn't know how to explain this situation to Lu Xiao...
Forget it, let's play dumb.
Qiu Yutong silently lowered her eyes and said nothing.
Fool it first, and when you return to Shuo Xuecheng, you can always find a solution. After he recovers his cultivation, he will return to Daning Palace to visit Lu Xiao—of course, he must never let Lu Xiao know what kind of "Mr. Xuerong" he used to be.
For a moment, the room was eerily quiet.
Lu Xiao was almost petrified, staring at Qiu Yutong with a dazed expression, which almost made his scalp tingle.
Is there something wrong with the face of this body
"Clang!"
With a crisp sound, a delicate Ru Kiln teacup fell from the edge of the desk and shattered. Then, a snow-white cat lightly jumped down from the desk, gave a low "meow", and seemed to realize that he had gotten into trouble, and ran away.
Lu Xiao was shocked for a moment, and finally came back to his senses, his eyes gradually became clear.
He slowly frowned, staring at the almost half-naked beauty in the cage, his eyes were dark and silent, as if he was thinking about something.
After a long time, he suddenly laughed at himself like a self-deprecating chuckle: "So that's the case, I really... King Jin took great pains."
At this moment, Lu Xiao had completely returned to his original appearance, and the extremely shocked look just now seemed to be just Qiu Yutong's illusion.
Qiu Yutong couldn't figure out what the hell he was doing.
Lu Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, and carefully looked at Qiu Yutong from head to toe.
Compared with just now, his eyes are completely different.
Two thoughtful, cold gazes, like the slippery and scarlet Xinzi of a poisonous snake, swept across Qiu Yutong's body inch by inch, without the slightest emotion, only cold scrutiny and suspicion.
Seeing Qiu Yutong almost terrified, he couldn't help but licked his lips. Just as he was about to say something, Lu Xiao suddenly opened his mouth.
"Just now, I heard from Zhang Defu that your name is Xuerong?"
Qiu Yutong didn't know how to answer, but from what the eunuchs said, it seemed that his body was indeed called "Xuerong"... He nodded as he thought about it.
"King Jin sent such a person here..." Lu Xiao squeezed Qiu Yutong's chin and forced his face up, "You should be very clear about what he is thinking."
The strength in Lu Xiao's hand was quite strong, rather than "pinching", it was more like "pinching" Qiu Yutong's chin severely.
Qiu Yutong let out a soft "hiss" from the pain, and wanted to turn her head away, but was pinched to death by the other party's slender and strong fingers, unable to move at all.
"Answer me."
Qiu Yutong was speechless.
How did he know what that damn King Jin wanted to do? !
"Talk, are you dumb?" Lu Xiao said calmly.
Qiu Yutong was really not used to Lu Xiao's demeanor and tone. Although he was always easy-going, he couldn't help becoming a little irritable at this moment.
Lu Xiao, why are you so embarrassed when you speak
If it was in the past, Qiu Yutong would have slapped this kid on the forehead and punished him for swinging his sword a thousand times.
It's just that the current situation and his identity are too embarrassing... Anyway, people have to bow their heads under the eaves, Qiu Yutong barely suppressed his emotions, endured the dryness and pain in his throat, and opened his mouth with great difficulty.
"I don't know... ahem, I need a rest."
He really didn't know anything, and he really needed a break.
Until now, Qiu Yutong has accepted the fucking fact of becoming a male favorite, he just wants to find a quiet place to relax a bit, sort out this mess of things, and then think about how to get back to Shuoxue city.
As long as you return to the teacher's gate, there is always a way.
Lu Xiao stared at him coldly, pinching his chin tightly with his slender and powerful fingers, like an iron hoop.
Qiu Yutong felt that her jaw was going numb from being pinched by the other party, so she could only repeat helplessly: "I really don't know."
"Oh? You don't know?" Lu Xiao twitched the corners of his mouth emotionlessly, and there was no smile in his dark eyes, "You were sent to Jingxin in the middle of the night with such a face and dressed like this The palace came to 'serve' me...but you said you didn't know?"
What do you mean with such a face
Qiu Yutong blinked her eyes, and suddenly remembered that the two little eunuchs seemed to have said just now that his face looked like someone Lu Xiao hated...
That's why Lu Xiao is so angry
Because he hates this face
Just as Qiu Yutong thought about it, Lu Xiao said coldly, "It's really hard for your master to find someone with such a face. I don't know how much painstaking effort I spent in private, don't you think so?"
Qiu Yutong was really helpless and could only keep silent.
"It's a pity that your master is just pretending to be smart." Lu Xiao paused every word, "The thing I hate most in my life is that other people look like...that person."
Qiu Yutong was puzzled and couldn't help but frowned.
Looks like "that guy"
Who is "that person"
Lu Xiao has always been calm and reserved, and doesn't get angry easily. What did "that person" do to make Lu Xiao hate him like this
Even people who look similar, also hate together
Qiu Yutong remembered that the person Lu Xiao hated the most was the old emperor who killed his mother. But, that old man died a long time ago... Besides, since this body is the so-called "excellent beauty", it doesn't look like that old man.
Or, the person that Lu Xiao hated so much appeared in the last five years, so he didn't know him
Qiu Yutong was completely at a loss, with a series of questions in his mind, just want to find a mirror to take a picture quickly, to see who is the sacred face, or which evildoer.
Seeing that he was still refusing to say anything, Lu Xiao suddenly sneered, and slowly loosened the fingers that pinched the opponent's chin: "Actually, even if you don't tell me, I can still guess what King Jin is planning."
Qiu Yutong blinked: "Oh?"
Lu Xiao said coldly: "Back then, this uncle of mine held a heavy army and almost had power in the government, and he didn't like me very much. If it weren't for... I might not be alive today. Now, he actually gave away such a person Come here, I see that he is impatient."
He didn't continue talking, and slowly raised the long sword in his hand, pointing the tip of the sword straight at Qiu Yutong's throat.
"Since you are so loyal to King Jin, you don't want to say anything... Then, I will fulfill your loyalty, that's all."
The blade of the sword was as dark as water, and the cold air was overwhelming.
"This sword, this sword is..." Qiu Yutong looked at the long sword, stunned.
He didn't pay attention to it just now, and it wasn't until now that he noticed that the long sword in front of him was the spiritual sword he gave to Lu Xiao - "Night Rain".
Qiu Yutong does not have a natal sword, as long as there is happiness, everything can be a sword. But back then, for the convenience of walking in the world, he bought a pair of low-grade spirit swords in a weapons shop. One was like a blue sky after rain, and he used it himself, while the other was as dark as water, and gave Lu Xiao self-defense.
At that time, Lu Xiao was still a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old. After getting the spirit swords, he was so excited that he named the pair of low-grade spirit swords. One was called "Night Rain" and the other was called "Tian Shui Bi". ", which is said to be inspired by the poem "The rain at night dyes the sky blue" in the previous dynasty.
Qiu Yutong was noncommittal about this. Apart from sword manuals, he only liked to read gossip stories about talented scholars and beauties, and he knew nothing about poetry and songs, and was not interested. Besides, they are just two low-grade spirit swords, and they are not the top-grade spirit sword "Zhi Ge" like the senior brother in the sect. This kind of low-grade spirit sword is named so carefully, I feel a bit... inexplicably ashamed, cough cough.
However, Lu Xiao seemed to like these two sword names very much, and spent a lot of time carefully engraving them on the bottom of the sword body. Although Qiu Yutong didn't think so, he couldn't bear to pour cold water on him, so he simply let him go.
It's the same for children's homes.
Not long after, Lu Xiao encountered a great danger, and Qiu Yutong almost missed it. In order to prevent this kind of thing from happening again, he sealed a sword qi inside the "Ye Yu" sword body. This sword qi contained the spiritual power of his full blow, which was enough to dispatch most first-class masters and protect the safety of this little apprentice. .
However, the current situation is very embarrassing.
Lu Xiao held "Ye Yu" with the tip of the sword pointing directly at his throat.
Looking at the low-grade spirit sword in front of her, Qiu Yutong really had a headache.
He changed his body, not only lost his spiritual power, but he didn't even have a chopstick at hand. Although Qiu Yutong doesn't have a natal sword, anything that is handy can be his sword, such as tree branches, ice edges...even chopsticks. But now, let alone chopsticks, there is not even a toothpick.
It couldn't be, just two hours after rebirth, he was killed by his own sword energy... This is too bad, enough for people in the whole cultivation world to laugh for three hundred years.
The blade of the sword was as dark as water, and the room was silent.
On the candlestick, dozens of candles burn silently, occasionally making a slight crackling sound. The dark sword body of "Ye Yu" shone with a strange gleam in the hazy yellow candlelight, making everyone's beard and hair cold.
The faces of the two are also bright and dark in this light and shadow.
So far, yet so close.
So vague, yet so clear.
So hateful, and so...
Lu Xiao stared at Qiu Yutong's face, his expression was extremely complicated, it seemed to be in great pain, and he was unspeakably depressed, and the muscles on his face were even a little distorted.
"That's all!" He closed his eyes fiercely, and the sword light of "Ye Yu" suddenly shot up!
An incomparably sharp and cold sword energy roared towards Qiu Yutong, with awe-inspiring killing intent!
Qiu Yutong subconsciously turned sideways slightly, but this body is very dull, and there is no way to avoid this sword energy from his past!
In the blink of an eye, there was only a slight "嗤——", a coolness passed over the side of the neck, followed by a slight pain.
The extremely fierce and cold sword energy narrowly brushed past his neck, bringing up a string of hot blood beads!
Then, there was only a crisp sound of "Kach!", and a delicate screen obliquely behind was chopped off by the sword energy!
The sword energy turned in the wrong direction.
Lu Xiao was stunned.
Qiu Yutong let out a sigh of relief——this sword energy still recognizes him as the master.
From this point of view, even if he changed his body, as long as his soul remained the same, he could still control his past sword energy.
Lu Xiao quickly came back to his senses. He looked down at the long sword "Yu Yu" in his hand, and frowned deeply: "Yu Yu... doesn't want to hurt you?"
