Lan Chuihan, the "No. 1 son in the world", is known as a romantic, and his dewy love affair is probably quite a lot, and men and women are not taboo. And the Cangyu Sect is not as pretentious as the Central Plains Sect, and dual cultivation is common. From this point of view, it is not surprising that Lan Chuihan and Yun Zhongjun had something to do.
But the person wrapped in Yunzhongjun's shell is the ghost king in red. Xie Bian couldn't imagine that Jiang Qulian would commit himself to him. Ever since he had memories in this life, he has been afraid of the Red Ghost King. He is a person who even Cui Jue can't figure out. Influence is even higher than that of the five ghost emperors who do not manage politics.
Perhaps, the phrase "dewy love" is enough to explain everything.
Lan Chuihan's expression was indescribably weird, contrary to his usual chic and suave demeanor, it seemed to be mixed with many unspeakable emotions.
Xie Bian also became embarrassed: "There is one thing that I still don't understand. Yun Zhongjun is Jiang Qulian from the beginning to the end, or was he replaced halfway?"
"At least when I knew him, he was already Jiang Qulian."
"Then since you met, hasn't he shown his feet in front of you once?"
Lan Chuihan smiled wryly: "I didn't know anything about Cangyumen at all, and I never looked into what I said to him. Besides, no matter how abnormal he is, I can't possibly guess that he is just a ghost."
Xie Bian sighed, "It's true."
"What he said to me, maybe..." Lan Chuihan lowered his eyes, blocking his thoughts with long eyelashes, "None of them are true."
"He lied to everyone." Xie Bian said, "He has never been with you before, does he have any special nostalgia for the human world? Why is he so obsessed with reincarnating as a human?" This is really puzzling, unless Jiang takes Lian is lying, otherwise anyone will want to break their heads, and they don't know why Jiang Qulian insists on being a man.
Lan Chuanhan shook his head slowly.
"He didn't have any truth in his mouth. It's very likely that he said it just to cover up his real purpose. This person must have greater ambitions. Maybe what he wants to get is the Tianji Talisman." Xie Bian thought of this possibility, and his scalp suddenly twitched Ma, "He is the king of ghosts. If he can control the heavenly secret talisman, even the ghost emperors of the five directions may not be able to suppress him."
"So Zong Zixiao is on guard against him. In this way, it is really impossible for the two of them to form an alliance." Speaking of Zong Zixiao, Lan Chuanhan glanced at Bian, "Bian, you and him..."
Xie Bian clenched his hands into fists unconsciously.
"No wonder his attitude towards you is so unusual. He was reincarnated with the memory of his previous life. He has always been a Demon Lord, but he was just keeping a low profile. Thinking about it now, it really makes people shudder."
"I'm so stupid. There were many omens and many facts that reminded me, but I just turned a blind eye. In fact, I didn't have doubts in my heart. I just didn't want to believe it, and even deceived myself. If I exposed him earlier, many things would be wrong. Similarly, perhaps Master’s fate can also be rewritten.” Xie Bian’s voice was as hollow as his eyes, as if this seemingly complete body had been hollowed out piece by piece.
"He has the memory of two lifetimes, so he came prepared, of course he can keep everyone in the dark, Bian, it's definitely not your fault." Lan Chuihan's tone was calm and sincere, with a sense of stability Power, "The fate of the celestial master is the way of heaven that is difficult to defy under the conspiracy and choices of many parties. Jiang Qulian's purpose is not to kill the celestial master, and Fan Wuxi doesn't know it. I'm not defending them, I just hope you understand , It's not your fault, it's not because you didn't recognize the Demon Lord, and a person like Tianshi is destined to serve the common people. Bian, you have suffered enough, don't blame yourself anymore, Tianshi also I don't want to see you embarrass yourself."
"Brother Lan, you don't understand." Xie Bian looked sad, "In the past and present, I can't protect the person I want to protect, and I can't even control my own destiny. What is the reincarnation of heaven and man, the fate of an emperor, what is the ultimate talent? It's just a fiasco."
Lan Chuanhan looked at Xie Bian, and there was a kind of pain like an undercurrent hidden under the water. No matter how calm the surface was, the inside was riddled with holes. It would be a calamity. If it weren’t for your sacrifice in the previous life, the world of cultivating immortals would have been wiped out a hundred years ago. You failed to protect yourself and important people, but you protected the common people.”
"Zong Zixiao became enchanted because of me. It is my responsibility to stop him. It is what I should do. There is no sacrifice."
"You could have done nothing. You could have continued to be your Zong Tianzi under the shadow of Zong Zixiao. No matter how much the world misunderstands you, you can't belittle yourself."
Jie Bian slowly tightened his jaw: "In any case, in the past and present, it is my mission to stop him."
"Heavenly masters have knowledge in the underground, and they will only be proud of you." Lan Chuihan stretched out his hand, "You are not fighting alone, and my Lan family will advance and retreat with you."
Xie Bian looked at Lan Chuihan gratefully, and clasped his hands tightly with a "snap"——
When Xie Bian returned to Hades, it seemed like a lifetime away.
Tianshi Palace looks the same as before, but it has lost the most important person. Bo Zhu was waiting for him at the door, and when she saw him, she threw herself into his arms with tears in her eyes, but kept silent.
It was because he was afraid that he would be sad, so he didn't dare to cry.
Xie Bian touched Bo Zhu's head, and said softly, "I've been away for too long this time, and I forgot to bring you a gift."
Bo Zhu's shoulders trembled violently, and he said vaguely, "Master Bai, it's good that you come back."
Xie Bian's eyes warmed up: "I'm sorry, I couldn't bring Master back." When he left Hades, he vowed to change his fate for Master. In the face of destiny, can people really only be defeated
Bo Zhu hugged Zhi Bian's waist tightly, and sobbed softly against his chest.
Jie Bian felt boundless pain in his heart.
After returning to Tianshi Palace, Xie Bian neither dared to go to Zhong Kui's bedchamber nor approached Fan Wushi's former residence. Although the time the three of them stayed in Tianshi Palace was very short since Fan Wuxi came under Zhong Kui's sect, every place here is full of memories. Up to now, he still has difficulty convincing himself that his master is no longer there, and he is resisting with all his will, but the truth will not spare anyone.
He couldn't stay in Tianshi Palace any longer, so he took two jugs of wine and went to the judge's mansion.
Cui Jue was waiting for him, looking at him deeply with pity and sadness.
"Mr. Cui Fu." Xie Bian cupped his hands.
Cui Jue said softly: "Bian, it's hard for you."
Xie Bian pursed his lips: "Mr. Cui, thanks to you sending day tours and night tours, otherwise the world would have been destroyed."
Cui Jue sighed, and said deeply: "I have neglected my duty. If I could break through Jiang Qulian's disguise earlier, I would not have come to this point."
"Jiang Qulian hides too deeply, no matter in the human world or the ghost world, he lied to everyone."
"He disappeared again this time, and I don't know when he will be found." Cui Jue said solemnly, "He can freely enter and leave the world of ghosts and humans. He is extremely dangerous. As a last resort, I am afraid that the Ghost Emperor must be called in, but..."
"It's just that Lord Cui doesn't trust Ghost Emperor very much."
Cui Jue nodded: "Jiang Qulian was able to achieve his current position thanks to Ji Kang's support. The two of them later drifted apart. Who knows if it was Jiang Qulian's scheme."
"Yes, you can't trust anyone at this time."
"What's more, there is Fan Wushi." Cui Jue said worriedly, "He has already taken back the map of Shanhe Sheji, and when he recovers his previous life's cultivation, it may really be possible to shake the Eastern Emperor Bell."
Xie Bian said sadly: "The world of humans and ghosts is in danger."
The two were silent for a while.
"The errands I sent are still looking for the two of you. This is the end of the matter. We should go all out to fight against this catastrophe." Cui Jue looked at Jie Bian with calm eyes, "Bian, don't dwell too much on the past." Heavenly Master wants to see you inherit his mantle, take the common people as your own responsibility, and make your noble spirit last forever."
Xie Bian's eyes turned hot: "Yes." He bit his lips, "Master, he..."
"Do you want to ask, why did the celestial master reincarnate like this?"
Xie Bian nodded with tears in his eyes.
"The Celestial Master said that if he saw you, he would be reluctant to leave." Cui Jue gently opened the drawer and took out a letter, "The Celestial Master has already explained to us, and he left this letter for you. "
Jie Bian was shocked, and he took the letter tremblingly. These thin pages suddenly weighed over a thousand catties.
