Thousands of years ago, there were two peerless beauties that everyone knew about.
One of them is the current Queen Mother of the West of Yaochi - Concubine Li Qing, and the other is the number one sword immortal in the world - Ning Xuerou, who is also the current leader of the Zhuxian Sword Sect.
Both of them are arrogant geniuses, and there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. I thought that when they met, they would fight each other, or at worst they would secretly compete.
But what everyone can't understand is that the lively and lovely Concubine Li Qing and the frosty Ning Xuerou hit it off and became inseparable friends.
They are as close as twin sisters. Outsiders can't understand it, and there are even rumors that they are suspected of grinding mirrors.
However, the person who spread the rumor was finally found out by them and beheaded in public. After that, no one dared to speak nonsense again.
Any one of the two could conquer all the geniuses at that time. After the two swords were combined, they could no longer find an opponent. They were also dubbed as the peerless two beauties by that generation.
I originally thought that their relationship would continue like this, and everyone in the world thought so too.
Until the opening of an ancient secret realm, everything changed.
The owner of the secret realm is a female immortal from ancient times, named Immortal King Linghan. A secret realm of the Immortal King attracted countless monks to go there, including the two of them.
This secret realm restricted the cultivation level of the monks to be below that of the Celestial Immortal. At that time, Concubine Li Qing was at the peak of the Mahayana Realm, while Ning Xuerou was at a higher level. She had already condensed half a drop of Immortal Essence and was halfway to the Celestial Immortal Realm.
But there is no age limit in the secret realm, so they have to compete fiercely with old monsters who are approaching their longevity.
No one could hold back the inheritance of an Immortal King. This trip to the secret realm was particularly bloody and cruel, and both of them suffered a lot of injuries.
In order to save her, Ning Xuerou used her body to block the fatal blow of a half-step immortal, and suffered a more serious injury. If not treated in time, her cultivation would be damaged.
Fortunately, the two finally made it to the end together and entered the Immortal King's final treasure house, and the final secret treasure was a rare elixir in thousands of years - Immortal Saliva.
As the name suggests, it can even allow a mortal to obtain the qualifications to become an immortal, and for heavenly immortal monks, it can almost be said to be a stepping stone to the realm of the Immortal King.
It's a pity that this drop of immortal saliva can only be eaten by one person, so both of them were in trouble for a while.
In this battle in the secret realm, Ning Xuerou put in more effort, and was seriously injured because of saving her. Due to emotion and reason, Ning Xuerou should give in. With her persistence, Ning Xuerou reluctantly agreed.
In fact, this is only a superficial reason. The deeper reason is that Li Qingfei has sensed her own bottleneck.
She reached the peak of the Mahayana Realm earlier than Ning Xuerou, but she was unable to gather the immortal energy and did not even sense the slightest opportunity. In contrast, Ning Xuerou began to gather immortal energy as soon as she reached this realm.
She knew at that moment that her talent could no longer keep up with her pace. Even the immortal saliva in front of her can only help her break through to the heavenly realm, but Xuerou is different. If she takes this immortal saliva, she will definitely be able to become an immortal king in the future!
Therefore, she said nothing to make Xuerou accept it. What made her happy was that although Xuerou declined in every possible way, she finally agreed.
But just when she was relieved and ready to watch Xuerou take in the immortal saliva, her back was hit hard by the hilt of his sword.
Originally, this attack was aimed at making her faint. Unfortunately, Ning Xuerou's injury was too serious and the force could not be controlled well. However, it was enough to make the already injured Concubine Li Qing unable to move.
The reason why Concubine Li Qing did not dodge was because her back was always given to her with peace of mind. Concubine Li Qing did not understand what Xuerou was going to do:
"Why? Xuerou."
Ning Xuerou, who had always cherished words like gold, chose to explain to her in detail this time:
"Why? Qing Fei, you always think I'm stupid, but I actually understand.
If I drink this immortal saliva, you will no longer practice with me. If you want to leave me behind, have you ever considered my feelings? "
Concubine Li Qing was helpless when her inner thoughts were exposed:
"Xue Rou, you misunderstood, I..."
But Ning Xuerou will not give in anymore:
"Qing Fei! You are always like this, helping me make decisions without authorization. Although it is for my own good, have you ever considered yourself? This time, you can't even think of trying to influence me."
After saying that, he picked up the immortal saliva and poured it into her mouth. Concubine Li Qing was still unable to move and could only yell loudly:
"Xue Rou, if you feed me this fairy saliva, I will never pay attention to you again! Do you hear me!"
She could only stop Xuerou's actions through threats, but Ning Xuerou was extremely determined this time and completely controlled her.
Finally, the immortal saliva entered Concubine Li Qing's mouth, and with the help of Ning Xuerou, the power of the medicine completely dissipated in her body.
Ning Xuerou also passed out completely after doing these things due to her extremely serious injuries.
Of course, no one outside knows about this final treasure house. All they knew was that after Concubine Li Qing came out, her cultivation level directly reached the Heavenly Immortal Realm, while Ning Xuerou was seriously injured and fell into a coma.
A simple guess can tell that the two are competing for the final treasure.
Would you have thought that two people with such a deep friendship would fight for the sake of opportunity? Many people feel that the world is declining and people's hearts are not as good as they used to be.
But if it's a chance to be directly promoted to a heavenly immortal, most cultivators actually don't even think there's anything wrong with it.
In the world of immortality where the jungle prevails, the so-called loyalty and friendship are just due to the lack of chips for betrayal!
But they only dared to whisper these words secretly behind their backs. After all, the guy who spread rumors about these two people last time had his head hanging on top of a mountain!
But the reality seems to be what they thought. The once inseparable pair never moved together again. Even when the two met by coincidence, they just turned their heads away from each other and did not look at each other.
Concubine Li Qing chose to follow her promise and ignore the other party.
Ning Xuerou did not feel that she had done anything wrong. On the contrary, she was a little happy after seeing her good sister break through the bottleneck. However, she was naturally cold-tempered and was not good at expressing her emotions. She kept waiting for the other party to talk to her.
In this way, the two of them broke off their friendship like quarrelsome children.
Everything has changed, not just their relationship.
The lively and lovely Concubine Li Qing gradually became silent, while Ning Xuerou, who was already cold-tempered, became even more "frozen". How to describe it?
If there had been a man pursuing her before, she might have rejected him like this: "Go away."
But now it has become one word: "Get out!"
The relationship between the two has been deadlocked for many years, until now. Concubine Li Qing became the Queen Mother of the West, and Ning Xuerou also took over the position of the leader of the Zhuxian Sword Sect.
At this time, it also confirmed Li Qingfei's initial prediction. Even if she drank the immortal saliva, she would only stop at the Six-Yuan Celestial Immortal, and she could not feel the premonition of breakthrough at all.
And Ning Xuerou has already reached the Ten Yuan Celestial Immortal, only one step away from the Upper Immortal Realm, and has been stagnant here for a long time. Isn't it just the drop of Immortal Transformation saliva that she once had?
