Xiaoying herself inherited the wind spirit power from her parents and was extremely talented. Although Situ Yunmeng had weak spiritual power, he studied the wind spirit magic method intensively. Therefore, during the more than half a year of becoming her teacher, Xiaoying had learned Become proficient in the use of wind control.
With the blessing of wind control, Xiaoying can fly much faster than ordinary birds by waving her wings.
Although Chaohu is three thousand miles away from Taiping Town, it only took Xiaoying more than two hours.
Soon, Xiaoying flew within the boundaries of Bai Lingzhou.
Bailingzhou is a small island with a radius of five miles in the center of Chaohu Lake. It is only more than ten miles away from Juchao Kingdom, another demon kingdom at the bottom of the lake. However, Bailingzhou has little contact with Juchao Kingdom because Zhu Yudiao has a high self-esteem. .
There is an extremely huge ancient banyan tree growing on Bailingzhou, which looks like the Nine Heavens Divine Tree. The bird demons in Bailingzhou call it the "main tree". Although it is not as tall as the sacred tree, which is 45,000 miles high and as wide as the sky. , but it is also extremely rare in the human world.
The birds in Bailingzhou rely on this towering ancient tree to build their nests and shelter from wind and rain.
but now……
Everything has changed!
From a distance of more than ten miles, Xiaoying saw the main tree burning with purple flames, and the thick smoke rising to a height of ten thousand feet, putting the entire Baili Chao Lake under a haze!
The sky is clear outside, but inside Chaohu Lake there are dark clouds as if it’s about to rain!
Xiaoying had a premonition that something was not going to happen, so she sped up her flight.
The closer she got to Bai Lingzhou, Xiaoying felt that the heat wave coming from the island was getting stronger and stronger!
When they arrived only one mile away from Bai Lingzhou, smoke was rising from Xiaoying's wings!
Xiaoying was panicked but not confused. She remembered the water-gathering technique taught by her master, and used the water from Chaohu Lake to wrap her body in a three-inch-thick layer of running water armor, finally blocking out the heat wave.
With the help of water and wind magic, she successfully landed near the main tree where the purple flames had not yet been affected, only to realize that this place had turned into a purgatory!
There is no longer a living bird to be seen in the entire Bailingzhou!
Not even the dead body of the bird could be found!
On all sides there were feathers swept up into the air by the heat wave.
Some of the feathers have been completely reduced to fly ash;
Another part of the feather was also in pieces.
In the land of hundreds of feathers, not a single feather is intact! !
My hometown and people were all burned to ashes by this terrifying purple flame! !
Xiaoying felt like she was suffocating.
She didn't want to believe what she saw, she just thought it was a nightmare.
She covered her mouth with her hands, trying to keep the tears from flowing from her eyes.
She had a bit of luck in her heart, thinking that her mother Zhu Yudiao might still be alive...
Even if it's just dying?
"mother--!"
"Mom——!! I'm back——!!!"
Xiaoying shouted loudly amidst the purple fire and thick smoke, using up all her spiritual power.
But no one responded to her.
No one.
Xiaoying frantically searched for her mother in the main tree temple where she once lived, but all she saw were pieces of vermillion feathers that were scorched black by the purple flames and drifted away in the wind.
Xiaoying recognized it, it was the feather of Zhu Yu's eagle!
Although her reason told her that Zhu Yudiaohou had most likely been murdered by a gangster, she still subconsciously shouted anxiously:
"mother!"
"mother--!!"
She didn't stop shouting until she saw a line of words on the stone wall of the temple opposite the gate.
Xiaoying saw ten large characters written on the stone wall with strong wind energy:
The murderer and genocide is the golden-winged roc!
Under the words, there is a golden roc feather inserted into the wall to prove the identity of the writer.
"mother……"
Xiaoying knelt weakly in front of the stone wall, her pupils gradually dilating.
She gasped for breath and tried to face this reality:
finally! The Golden-winged Dapeng still led his army of bird demons to bloodbath Bailingzhou, killing the three elders and all the tribesmen, and burning her biological mother to ashes! !
Revenge for killing your mother!
The hatred of genocide! !
All of this must be "thanked" to her biological father - the Golden-winged Dapeng!
Xiaoying slowed down her breathing and regained her composure. She knew that her mother and the Bailingzhou people could not be resurrected. The only thing she could do now was to find the Golden-winged Dapeng and kill him to avenge everyone!
However, even the powerful mother cannot defeat the golden-winged roc, what else can Xiaoying do?
At this time, Xiaoying's mind echoed the words of Zhu Yudiaohou:
…
"In the future, when your mother is no longer around, Mr. Situ will be your second mother! You must listen to Mr. Situ in everything, okay?"
…
Xiaoying clenched her fists and regarded these words as her mother's will. She nodded and looked at the stone wall with the golden-winged roc's message engraved on it and said:
"Mother, elders, fellow compatriots... I swear on my life! I will smash the golden-winged roc into thousands of pieces, smash the bones and spread ashes!!"
…
…
…
Three days after Bai Lingzhou was exterminated.
It was the day after Han Ye and others destroyed the Antian Jiaoyue Altar.
Taiping Town, inside Hanzhai.
Empress Biyou Sanxiao was sitting at a table, drinking Suzhou Biluochun and Hangzhou Longjing brewed by Situ Yunmeng for them, listening to the children reading poems and books, and feeling the summer sunshine shining in the courtyard, which was quite enjoyable.
Situ Yunmeng did not use water magic to make tea, but still used her hands that exuded the fragrance of flowers to scald the pot, set the tea, warm the cup, high brew, and low bubble.
Because she felt that showing off her magic in front of three highly skilled immortals was really just trying to do something for everyone, or even disrespectful to others.
Situ Yunmeng looked expectantly at Empress Sanxiao drinking tea and asked, "Seniors, how do you like the tea I made?"
"senior?"
Hearing this, Yun Xiao quickly put down the tea he was drinking.
Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao almost spit out their tea!
Yun Xiao stood up and bowed in fear: "Please Yun Meng don't call us senior anymore, I really can't bear the word senior!"
Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao also said:
"That's right!"
"If you keep calling me that, I won't be able to talk to you anymore!"
Situ Yunmeng had no choice but to stand up and ask them to sit down one by one, and asked without explanation: "But... you have practiced immortal magic for thousands of years, and I have only practiced immortal magic for more than ten years. It is not appropriate to call you senior." ?"
Yun Xiao responded seriously: "Yun Meng, master has arranged for us to assist you in annihilating the Antian Sect and governing the Six Realms. We have a relationship between monarch and minister. Have you ever heard of a monarch calling his subordinates 'senior'?"
Qiong Xiao also said: "You have no airs. We all understand that you treat us as friends, which is fine!"
Bixiao followed: "But calling each other equals is enough to make us uncomfortable, and now you are calling yourself even more humble! This is definitely not okay!!"
Situ Yunmeng saw that Empress Sanxiao was always nervous and her face was tense, so she had to change her words and said: "Okay, fellow Taoist..."
"I'll call these three fellow Taoists, not seniors. That's alright, right?"
Empress Sanxiao breathed a sigh of relief.
Yunxiao said: "It's acceptable."
Qiong Xiao said: "It's okay."
Bixiao said: "Okay."
Later, Empress Sanxiao said that she couldn't tell the difference between Biluochun and Longjing, but she just thought it tasted good.
It turns out that Empress Sanxiao devoted herself to cultivation on Sanxian Island and did not care about worldly affairs, while tea culture was heard in the Western Zhou Dynasty, flourished in the Tang Dynasty, and flourished in the Song Dynasty, perfectly avoiding the scope of Empress Sanxiao's knowledge.
In fact, for Empress Sanxiao, drinking tea is secondary, and experiencing the new era with Situ Yunmeng is what they are most interested in.
During the past few days of living with Situ Yunmeng, Empress Sanxiao was warmly received by Situ Yunmeng and talked about the past and present every day. They became more and more aware of the loveliness of this world.
Empress Sanxiao believed that they should live in the present and happily practice righteousness with the wise Lord. As for going to Tianwaitian, they temporarily forgot about it.
Situ Yunmeng did not forget her promise to Shui Luoying, the Demon Lord of Infatuation. She pulled Shui Luoying to the table and comforted her by saying that she would help Shui Luoying find Ling Feng's reincarnation now.
Therefore, Empress Sanxiao lent her magic power to Situ Yunmeng, so that Situ Yunmeng could have enough spiritual power to search for the whereabouts of Ling Feng's reincarnation in the world.
But Situ Yunmeng tried his best to sense the mountains, rivers, vegetation, birds, animals, insects, and fish within thousands of miles in the world, but he couldn't find any trace of Ling Feng's reincarnation.
Even with all of Shui Luoying's magic power, I still can't feel it!
Han Ye reminded: "Ling Feng's reincarnation may not be in the human world, the fairy world, or the demon world. He may also be wandering in the ghost world or somewhere in the world of gods and demons."
Shui Luoying knew that Situ Yunmeng had tried his best, and agreed with Han Ye's point of view. Even though she desperately longed to find Ling Feng's reincarnation, she also knew that this matter might not be solved for a while, and she could not ask Situ Yunmeng to be there. Before the Antian Sect is completely wiped out, she has to find her lover all over the world.
Therefore, Shui Luoying silently closed her eyes with a hint of sadness on her brows, and then she compromised and said: "Yunmeng, Ling Feng is important to me, but major events in the six realms are more important. I will wait until I go to other realms." Look for it, aren’t we going to the ghost world soon?”
Xue Yan also agreed: "Yes, back then I floated to the ghost world and waited for Du Gua and Xiao Meng Meng at Naihe Bridge. Later I was found by Du Gua... Maybe Huang Mao was also waiting for Luo Ying nearby? Let's help After the Tenth Palace resolves the matter of Dark Hell, we will launch all the acquaintances in the Tenth Palace to search for him, and we will definitely find him."
Situ Yunmeng was deeply concerned.
Empress Sanxiao faced Situ Yunmeng and suggested: "Yunmeng, since you want to help Demon Lord Chidi, we are willing to do our best... As long as we find Demon Lord Chidi's lover in the ghost world, we can Use the Hunyuan Golden Dou to baptize him and reverse the calamity, which can help stabilize his soul and reverse his luck."
Seeing that Situ Yunmeng was a little confused, Yunxiao patiently explained: "After becoming a god, the world is settled. Uncle Daode has injected a new ability into our Hunyuan Golden Dou, which is called baptism and transformation... Fan Yiyingxian, Ordinary people, saints, princes, emperors, nobles, humble, wise and foolish, after reincarnation, they must first pass through the golden bucket and undergo tribulations, and cannot go beyond this point."
Bixiao added: "Of course, although the magic weapon has this ability, we only focused on cultivation at that time and did not care about worldly affairs, so we have not used it yet."
Situ Yunmeng and Shui Luoying were both overjoyed when they heard this.
Especially Shui Luoying, she was originally worried that Ling Feng was killed by Chong Lou of the third original body, which might have damaged his soul. If he could not become a mortal after reincarnation or was born stupid and chaotic, it would be difficult to take care of him.
Now that she heard that Empress Sanxiao had the power to baptize and reverse catastrophes, she couldn't help but say thank you to Empress Sanxiao.
Qiong Xiao said: "No need to thank us. We are following the wishes of the Lord of the Six Realms. If we want to thank her, we should also thank her."
Situ Yunmeng didn't look at Shui Luoying's grateful look. She drank the Biluochun from the cup and expressed it with actions: Luoying, this is not a big deal, and there is no way to say thank you.
Because a world where gods and demons help each other and treat each other with respect is the world that Situ Yun dreams of.
The life with Han Ye, Xue Yan, Tiantian, Han Yu, Xingchen and his disciples is the life that Situ Yun dreams of.
She put down the tea cup and blessed: "Luo Ying, if we find Ling Feng's reincarnation this time, we must stay together, cherish each other, and live up to both sides."
Shui Luoying nodded heavily, her gratitude beyond words.
Seeing that the female demon lord was sincerely convinced by Situ Yunmeng, the golden god Pingshou on the side couldn't help but joked to Jiutian Xuannv who was holding Han Qianli in her arms: "Xuannv, Lan Xiang is getting stronger and stronger. Are you happy to be my sister?"
Jiutian Xuannv looked at the dignified and beautiful Situ Yunmeng and did not reply. She just nodded slightly, but it was easy to see from her rare smile that she was very pleased.
Xue Yan said to Xing Sheng: "I'm talking about Cat Claw Man, Sister Xuan, you two are almost like normal people when you come down to earth this time. Why did you always like to use ancient expressions in the past, such as 'I' and 'Ru'? of?"
Ping Huan laughed and said: "Isn't this advancing with the times? Now Xuannv and I are learning how to communicate better with mortals. After all, Han Ye and you both have valuable experiences that we can learn from."
Jiutian Xuannv explained: "Before, the Emperor of Heaven ordered us to use 'elegant language' when talking to the sentient beings in the lower world, which is now the so-called 'official language' in the mortal world. This will appear more formal."
"But recently, the Emperor and the three Heavenly Lords feel that if everyone can't understand, it will be inconvenient to communicate, and it will always appear to be condescending, which is inconsistent with the current policy... So in the future, our dialogues will be based on 'faith', ' Da' is the main thing."
Xue Yan said oh and suddenly realized.
But what I was thinking was: You should have done this a long time ago.
Then, following Han Ye's suggestion last night, Situ Yunmeng called everyone to integrate clues from all the six realms to see if there was any branch of the Dark Heaven Sect besides the dark hell of the ghost realm.
While everyone was talking about it, suddenly, the expressions of Jiutian Xuannv, Shuiluoying and Jin Shen Lingshou became serious.
Shui Luoying reminded everyone: "Attention! There is a strange aura approaching here! Very soon!!"
Jiutian Xuannv concentrated on sensing: "Well... the spiritual power is close to the level of gods and demons."
Piao Shou asked doubtfully: "Will it be someone at the level of protector of the Antian Sect?"
The masters of the two worlds of gods and demons were on alert, causing the originally noisy Hanzhai to fall into silence.
Xingchen jumped onto the eaves and used clairvoyance to look into the distance with Tao Gaoming at his feet.
Xingchen said: "It's Xiaoying, she's back! There's an old lady flying beside her."
Tao Gaoming added: "The spiritual power close to gods and demons comes from this old woman."
In fact, Xiaoying's trip to Bailingzhou did not leave any news for the adults at all.
Considering that the last time Senior Sister Susu returned to Lishu Mountain alone, Mr. Situ was very worried. Xiaoying thought that she was just going to Bailingzhou to move reinforcements and there was no danger, so she told Senior Sister Xin'er to ask Mr. Situ to , Master, and all the teachers, please don’t worry, Zhu Yudiao will come back as soon as he is invited.
It is also for this reason that after Situ Yunmeng returned to Hanzhai and learned about the incident, he did not worry too much about Xiaoying.
Both Situ Yunmeng and Xue Yan believed that when Xiaoying went this time, she would definitely bring Zhu Yu Diaohou with her. One more person and more strength would not be a bad thing.
But they didn't expect that what Xiaoying brought was not her mother, but an old woman with good magical powers.
Situ Yunmeng could sense that the aura emanating from this old woman was very similar to that of the Taihu Lake God.
Because of this special aura, she soon remembered who this person was.
This person is none other than the "Chaohu Taimu" who is named the Elder of Juchao Kingdom and is actually the God of Chaohu Lake!
Rumor has it that there was no Chaohu Lake during the Spring and Autumn Period, only Juchao Kingdom.
Affected by natural disasters, Juchao Kingdom sank as a whole, and at the same time the groundwater level rose sharply, eventually forming a lake as famous as Yunmengze, Poyang Lake, Hongze Lake and Taihu Lake, called "Chaohu Lake".
The Grandmother of Chaohu was originally a resident of the Juchao Kingdom. After being canonized as the God of Chaohu by the Emperor of Heaven, she felt compassion for the residents of her country who had suffered disasters, so she drained the entire lake within the Juchao Kingdom to all directions, and finally created the lake at the bottom. A realm with a radius of ten miles.
She took in the poor fairies near Chao Lake who were not accepted by the world and lived with the aborigines of the Juchao Kingdom, gradually forming what is now known as the "Underwater Juchao Kingdom".
Grandma Chaohu claims to be the "Elder of Juchao Kingdom" to the outside world, just to protect the weak creatures of Juchao Kingdom, making the outside world think that Juchao Kingdom still has its own master.
In fact, there are no elders or kings in Juchao Kingdom, only mortals, goblins and immortals who live in peace...
As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together and people divide into groups. Although Zhu Yu Diao didn't have much contact with Chaohu Taimu, Situ Yunmeng knew both Zhu Yu Diao and Chaohu Taimu.
Situ Yunmeng sensed the arrival of Grandma Chaohu and said to Han Ye and Xue Yan: "Aye, Yan'er, Xiaoying came with Grandma Chaohu, but I didn't sense Empress Zhu Yudiao."
Zhu Yu Diaohou didn't come?
Why did Xiaoying go all the way to Bailingzhou, but only brought back a Chaohu concubine who did not know each other well with Empress Zhu Yudiao?
Han Ye was full of doubts, and Xue Yan also felt that something was fishy.
In any case, since the visitor was confirmed to be a friend, everyone naturally put the two of them into the Hanzhai compound.
After Xiaoying led Grandma Chaohu into the courtyard, everyone took a closer look at their clothes and appearance.
The human-shaped Xiaoying is wearing a red orange feather dress. She has a pair of extraordinary heroic eyebrows and a pair of bright eyes full of aura. She is said to be a young eagle monster, just because she was born for the union of the eagle and the roc, and the color of her wings looks a bit... Miscellaneous, this is one of the reasons why Queen Zhu Yu hates the Golden-winged Dapeng. Because of the seed given by the Golden-winged Dapeng, her biological daughter is no longer a pure and beautiful eagle, but the Golden-winged Dapeng still thinks cruelly. Abort her in the womb!
The Chaohu Grandma accompanying Xiaoying is also quite unique. She is wearing a bright red robe. She is very tall, a full head taller than the average mortal old woman. She has an elegant appearance but a slightly thin body. If it weren't for her With her head full of white hair, many people would think that she is only thirty-four years old.
Chaohu Grandma knelt down solemnly in front of Situ Yunmeng and saluted, "Grandma Jiao, the God of Chaohu Lake, pays homage to the benefactor of the six realms!!"
While Grandma Chaohu was speaking, Xiaoying had already knelt down towards Situ Yunmeng, grabbing the ground with her head without saying a word.
Situ Yunmeng has been with Xiaoying for half a year and already regards her as half a daughter and not a guest; but Grandma Chaohu is completely a guest and still needs to be treated with courtesy.
"Please get up quickly!" Situ Yunmeng hurriedly stepped forward to help Grandma Chaohu and said hurriedly: "All living beings in the six realms should not kneel to me, and the same goes for you! Just treat her as equals!"
Xue Yan said from the side: "That's right, Chaohu grandma, really don't kneel down. It took a lot of effort for Xiao Mengmeng to correct everyone's bad habits, but we can't make an exception just because of you!"
Han Ye looked at Xiaoying, then at Grandma Chaohu, and roughly understood the current situation:
Because in his impression, the Golden-winged Dapeng seems to have been entangled with Zhu Yudiao for a long time, and the "Garuda" in the Eight Dragons is a Golden-winged Dapeng. Han Ye has always suspected that the Golden-winged Dapeng will take advantage of the opportunity to join Antian. Teach him to become the master of the Bird God Altar - Garuda!
For Yin Shitian, it is reasonable and natural to take such a powerful person under his command.
Then once the Golden-winged Dapeng obtains divine power from the heavens, he will unscrupulously seek out the troubles behind Zhu Yu Diao in Bai Ling Continent.
In Han Ye's impression, although the Golden-winged Dapeng is a playboy and lecherous, he only flirts with the beautiful female bird and lacks the motive to kill. If Zhu Yudiao resists and refuses to obey, the Golden-winged Dapeng will be far stronger than the opponent. The mana should not be used too strong.
But Empress Zhu Yudiao was very arrogant. After she was entangled by the golden-winged roc, she would definitely not come to Situ Yunmeng for help for her own sake, so Xiaoying was asked to rush back to Hanzhao to report the news.
As for why Xiaoying brought Grandma Chaohu...
Han Ye thought that Xiaoying wanted to get someone thoughtful to testify to prove that the golden-winged roc was harassing women from good families.
So, Han Ye asked Grandma Chaohu: "Senior Grandma Jiao, why did you come with Xiaoying?"
What Grandma Chaohu said next was far beyond Han Ye's expectations.
Grandma Chaohu saluted Situ Yunmeng with a face full of resentment: "The benefactor of the six realms, the Golden-winged Dapeng killed Queen Zhu Yudiao! Destroyed the entire Bailingzhou!! Your disciples were desperate, so you brought me here. Be a witness!”
"What?!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, including Han Ye.
In fact, when Xiaoying returned to Hanzhai and saw Ye Mengyan Xingyu and other elders, she couldn't help but want to cry, but she didn't want to embarrass herself in front of her junior brothers and sisters and many guests, so she had to fight for the ground with her head. Hold back tears.
But as soon as Grandma Chaohu said, "The Golden-winged Dapeng destroyed Bailingzhou after killing Zhu Yudiao," Xiaoying raised her head to look at Situ Yunmeng, and saw that the second mother in her heart was so kind and affectionate. So loving, he couldn't help but burst into tears:
"gentlemen--!!!"
"Help--!!!"
Xiaoying burst out the grievances, sadness, sorrow and hatred she had accumulated for a long time in front of everyone.
Revenge for killing your mother!
The hatred of genocide! !
What could be more heartbreaking than these? !
Xiaoying's helpless cries echoed through the sky! All the heroes present were moved! !
Note:
① "Chaohu Taimu" - the legendary Chaohu Lake God who is as famous as the Taihu Lake God, is the protagonist of the "Chaozhou Trap" incident. According to the "Encyclopedia of Searching Gods from the Origin of Three Religions" and "Sou Shen Ji", there was originally a Chao City in Chaohu Lake in ancient times (some experts traced it back to the Yin and Shang Dynasties and called it Juchao Kingdom). One day, the lake water surged and Chao City was destroyed. A huge fish stranded at the port of the city, weighing ten thousand kilograms, died after not returning to the lake for three days. Everyone in the city came to eat it, except for an old woman who refused to eat it. Suddenly an old man appeared in front of her and said, "This is my son. Unfortunately, you have suffered this disaster and you have not eaten. I will repay you generously. If the stone turtle at the east gate has red eyes, the city will fall." Hearing this, the old woman hurriedly I went to the east gate to see if Shi Gui's eyes were red because she was behaving strangely. A child next to me asked her why, and the old woman told her the truth. Unexpectedly, the child played a prank on the old woman and painted the stone turtle's eyes red with cinnabar. Later, the old woman saw that the stone turtle's eyes were really red and hurried out of the city. A boy in green clothes who called himself Dragon's Son led the old woman up the mountain, and then the whole Chao City really fell into Chao Lake. It is said that Chaohu Lake officially took shape after "Chaozhou was trapped", and the Chao City (Zhao Chao Kingdom) under Chao Lake remained at the bottom of the lake forever. The old woman who left the city alone was known to Anhui people as "Chaohu Tai". "Grandma", the God of Chaohu Lake.
