Before speaking, she cleared her throat, appearing very calm, even a little playful like a child.
But both Shang Xingzhou and Chen Changsheng could hear her voice trembling slightly.
It wasn't because he was excited to meet Chen Changsheng in a free body, but because he was uneasy.
She felt that she was too close to the middle-aged Taoist priest, which was dangerous.
At this time, she didn't know that this person was Chen Changsheng's master, but she clearly felt that the other person had the ability to hurt or even kill her.
There are very few strong human beings in the world who are capable of harming or even killing her, but she just escaped from the prison for hundreds of years tonight, and she met one person.
This made her feel a little frustrated in the face of fate, so that she didn't dare to look at Shang Xingzhou, but just stared into Chen Changsheng's eyes, looking extremely serious and focused.
She didn't know that in Shang Xingzhou's eyes, she was also a very dangerous existence.
Human beings have recorded very clearly in Daozang that they cannot be too vigilant against dragons, the highest-level creatures under the starry sky.
What's more, she is the noblest and most powerful Xuanshuang dragon in the dragon clan. Her petite body is full of energy that countless human beings dream of but will never have. If she learns to use those powers, or those powers Even if it explodes passively, it will inevitably cause extremely terrifying momentum and tragic consequences.
She was afraid of Shang Xingzhou, and Shang Xingzhou was wary of her, but Chen Changsheng was just surprised.
He didn't expect that she would escape from the bottom of the well!
Even if the method he and Xu Yourong used at the beginning was correct, his blood, driven by the sublimation of Xi Liudian, is constantly accelerating the speed at which the iron chain is eroded by time. According to his calculations, there are still at least two years left for the chain to be eroded by time. The iron chain will be broken, and after she left the ground, why didn't she leave her least favorite continent full of human breath and return to the warm archipelago in the south but came to the Orthodox Academy
There were more variables in this negotiation, and it was vaguely beneficial to him, but Chen Changsheng was not happy. He didn't want anyone or anything other than himself to participate in this negotiation, whether it was the priests of Li Palace, the teachers and students of Orthodox Academy, Li Shan and Huai Yuan, and the senior brothers who were worrying in the Night Palace at this time, and what she said What do words mean
protector? Chen Changsheng remembered the relevant records in the seventh volume of the Dao Canon, Chen Guangyueli, and then remembered some past events that the Pope seemed to have mentioned inadvertently that night.
Regardless of the state religion or the previous Taoism, if we want to maintain an unchanging orthodoxy, we must attach great importance to inheritance. Contemporary popes often start planning many years in advance, educating and cultivating successors. Those young disciples are extremely gifted in cultivation and have amazing potential, but it will take a long time to grow into a real strong man who can lead the Taoism forward. There are many tests to go through, and the number of orthodox descendants of Taoism has always been very small. For example, the previous generation only had the Pope and Shang Xingzhou, and this generation only has Chen Changsheng and Shang Xingzhou.
Such a long and difficult journey of cultivation, with such a small number of successors, logically speaking, the inheritance of Taoism should be cut off at any time. However, Taoism has been passed down for countless generations for countless years, and there has never been such a situation. Apart from the fact that those descendants are as great as the brothers Yin and Shang, there is another very important reason, that is, when these young descendants are in the world When traveling and cultivating, Taoist sects often invite an extremely powerful or prestigious senior to be the guardian of that successor.
The orthodoxy is immortal, and this kind of rule has been maintained for many generations, even longer than the Great Zhou Dynasty. If Chen Changsheng lived as an orthodox heir of the state religion when he was in the old temple in Xining Town, then he should indeed have a guardian, and that guardian must be one of the most powerful people in the mainland, and the most likely one is the wind and rain in all directions One of them, but no one in the whole continent knew his identity at that time. Now that he has become the pope, does he still need a guardian? And why her
"It turns out that Yin was talking about you."
Shang Xingzhou's expression was calm, without any surprise, obviously he knew about this beforehand.
He looked at the little black dragon and said, "After hundreds of years, you can finally leave the old well at Beixinqiao and be free. Why don't you go back to the South China Sea?"
"Because this is my promise." Little Black Dragon stood in front of Chen Changsheng, looked at him and said seriously.
It was obvious that Shang Xingzhou had put a lot of pressure on her. Her little face was full of tension, but she was still determined.
Shang Xingzhou suddenly asked, "Will you protect him?"
She raised her face and said proudly, "Of course."
Shang Xingzhou continued to ask: "Would you like to become one with him in front of the starry sky, love him, respect him, and comfort him just like you love yourself, no matter if he is sick or healthy, rich or poor, successful or unsuccessful, Always put his name before his own, until he left this world and returned to the Star Sea?"
This passage is like a breeze, coming slowly, and like thunder, rumbling endlessly.
This is one of the oldest texts in the scriptures, this is the oath of the guardian, and this is the rule of the Li Palace.
She was silent for a while, then said, "I am willing."
Shang Xingzhou asked, "Even if you have to pay your life for it?"
Without any hesitation, she said, "Yes."
A few years ago at the bottom of the Beixin Bridge, she had already given something more important than life to Chen Changsheng, at least in her own opinion.
Of course, this does not mean that she is really willing to die for Chen Changsheng without asking any conditions, nor does it mean that she is not afraid of death. As dragons with a long life, death is something they rarely consider, but because life is too long, when they think about it occasionally, they will have fears far beyond ordinary humans.
She stared into Shang Xingzhou's eyes and said, "Wang Zhice didn't dare to kill me back then, he only dared to imprison me. I don't believe you dare to kill me."
In the general cognition of the world of cultivating Taoism, the dragon race is often immortal. The main reason why there is such an impression that goes against the facts is that the dragon race is the highest level of life under the starry sky and has an extremely long life span. Years and unimaginable strength, and tens of thousands of years ago, when the dragon clan withdrew from the continent, it formed a pact with the worlds of all parties-any life that actively offends the dragon clan must die.
The main reason why this agreement has been passed down to this day is of course not how much the demons and humans value promises, but because of the strength of the dragons. Regardless of the peak strength of the demon race or the human race, even if they face a lonely or even weak dragon, they will rarely try to do anything, because there is a soul orb in the dragon's body, once the dragon is killed If you die, the soul orb will be shattered, and the clansmen in the far south will definitely take extremely crazy revenge after sensing it.
Even the Great Zhou Dynasty ruled by His Majesty Emperor Taizong was unwilling to bear such a price. Back when the little black dragon was raging everywhere, Wang Zhice used tricks to capture her, but he never killed her. Apart from her forgiveness, the more important reason was because she was not easy to kill and not easy to kill. Of course, these two things are not easy to kill. mean.
For countless years, the Dragon Clan has always been an object of reverence far away from the mainland.
But at certain historical moments, there are occasional surprises.
