"Master!" Zheng Xiyao threw herself in front of Lingjun's body.
The sleeping Master Lingjun showed no reaction. Zheng Xiyao stretched out her hand to check Lingjun's pulse. Her pulse was weak and weak, and it was obvious that the oil was exhausted.
"Junior brother's heart has been seriously damaged and there is no way he can recover." Qingxu said with sadness.
Li Yuan stepped forward and hugged her, wanting to comfort her. Zheng Xiyao was panicking at the moment, and countless thoughts flashed through her mind to save Master Lingjun. Because Master Lingjun is not only her master, but more like a father.
"Yao Yao, you still have me." Li Yuan comforted in a low voice.
Zheng Xiyao shook off Li Yuan's hand, pursed her lips tightly, and her heart heaved.
"Li Yuan," Zheng Xiyao looked at Li Yuan intently, "he is my master." For her, no one can replace Master Lingjun.
Li Yuan stiffened and nodded slowly, "I know. Without him, there would be no me."
Zheng Xiyao was in confusion, and guilt flashed through her heart: For Li Yuan, Master Lingjun is also very important. She shouldn't blame him.
But even if she knew, she didn't have the energy to care.
Exhausted physically and mentally, Zheng Xiyao rummaged through the ancient books in the library, hoping to find a way to save her master.
But nothing was found.
Just when she was at a loss, Master Qingxu summoned her to meet.
"Headmaster."
"I heard that you have been looking for a way to save your junior brother in the library these days?"
"yes."
"Is there any harvest?"
"...Not yet."
After a long time, Master Qingxu said, "Don't be persistent. People who cultivate immortality have already ignored life and death."
Zheng Xiyao did not speak, but a sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of her mouth: If you really care about life and death, then why do cultivators pursue ascending to immortality and attaining immortality?
"I have been with my junior brother for hundreds of years, and I really don't want him to end up like this." He looked at Zheng Xiyao, who was bowing his head silently, and said mysteriously: "Actually, I once heard that if you have the blood of an immortal, you can bring the dead back to life, junior brother It can be saved. But it’s a pity.”
Zheng Xiyao suddenly raised her head and looked at Qingxu eagerly: "What did you say? Can the immortal's painstaking efforts save the master?"
"These are just legends and cannot be true."
"That's it..."
Zheng Xiyao narrowed her eyes and looked at Qingxu, a trace of doubt flashing in her eyes.
When she walked out of the hall and looked back at Master Qingxu standing at the door, a strange emotion arose in her heart.
"Junior sister!" A familiar voice called her.
Zheng Xiyao turned around and saw his senior brother Zhou Qi.
"Senior brother."
"Are you going to find Junior Brother Li?" Senior Brother Zhou asked nervously.
Zheng Xiyao was thoughtful, looking at Zhou Qi she could tell that he was worried.
"Senior brother, what's going on?"
"I……"
"Senior brother, did you hear something?
Zhou Qi's face was tangled, and he tore off his clothes at a loss. "Master, can he really not wake up?"
"Yes." Zheng Xiyao responded softly.
"Then are you going to ask Junior Brother Li for the true dragon's heart?"
Zheng Xiyao thought to herself that her senior brother couldn't tell whether he was really stupid or pretending to be stupid, so he said such a thing so harshly.
"Yes, I'm going to find Li Yuan."
"Click."
Zheng Xiyao followed the sound but found nothing.
There are only dead leaves of crabapple blown down by the wind.
"But how can you bear it?"
"Why don't you want to find Li Yuan?"
"You're not going to go," Zhou Qi suddenly approached and whispered, "to take my junior brother's heart blood."
"I'm not a pervert, so why should I take his blood?" Zheng Xiyao pushed away Zhou Qi who was approaching. "Li Yuan will ascend soon. When he becomes a god, it will not be easy to save the master." Zheng Xiyao said matter-of-factly.
Zhou Qi's eyes widened and he suddenly realized: "Junior sister, you are right. I was worried that you would hurt your junior brother for the sake of master. This would be great." The young man swept away the tangle just now and smiled on his face, as if all the problems had been solved. generally.
Zheng Xiyao smiled indifferently and passed by her senior brother. Zhou Qi suddenly said: "Junior sister, don't do anything that you will regret."
She was stunned for a moment and looked at her senior brother, but the man had already left calmly.
"Why do you even ask me what I will do to him?" Zheng Xiyao murmured to herself.
[Host, now is the last critical moment. As long as the hero ascends successfully, you can leave this world. 】
【I know. 】
[As long as the male protagonist succeeds, all problems will be solved, and the host does not have to worry. 】System comfort.
【hope so. 】
Zheng Xiyao always has some fear in her heart, and she doesn't know why.
She walked to Li Yuan's residence and found that the man was wielding the Red Abyss Sword. The sword was fierce and decisive, turning everything it touched into dust.
What's going on here?
Zheng Xiyao clearly felt that Li Yuan was unhappy. She stood aside and watched without coming forward.
Seeing that Li Yuan was getting more and more crazy and had no intention of stopping, Zheng Xiyao ran out of patience and said, "Li Yuan!"
Li Yuan paused for a moment, then continued to move his hands deliberately, obviously going against her. Zheng Xiyao narrowed her eyes and said, "Li Yuan," she crossed her arms over her chest, "I'll count to three. If you don't come over, I'll leave."
"1, 2" before she finished speaking, Li Yuan had already put away his sword and moved in front of her instantly, hugging her and saying aggrievedly, "Yao Yao, why are you so cruel."
Zheng Xiyao pushed away the head that was leaning on her shoulder, "Go away, you are so sweaty and dirty."
"I don't, this is what I want." Li Yuan didn't listen at all, but hugged him tighter. Zheng Xiyao felt the uneasiness in the man's heart and asked strangely: "What's wrong with you?"
Li Yuan said nothing.
"If you don't want to say it, let me go. I still have to go to the library to find a way to cure Master."
"Is Master Lingjun that important to you?"
"……right."
"You," Li Yuan buried his head on her shoulder and murmured softly, "What about me, am I not important at all?"
Zheng Xiyao's heart suddenly tightened. She put her arms around the young man's waist and hugged him back, "You are equally important."
Li Yuan snorted dissatisfied, "Then which one of us is more important?"
Zheng Xiyao frowned, why is this conversation so familiar?
"Who do you save first when Lingjun and I are in danger?"
Zheng Xiyao:......
She asked helplessly: "If Master Qingxu and I are in danger at the same time, who will you save first?"
Li Yuan: "You."
"...Who is more important in your heart, me or Qingxu?"
"you."
The man answered decisively again.
Zheng Xiyao was stunned, trying to find hesitation in his eyes, but Li Yuan's expression was clear, and it could be seen that the answers just now came from his sincerity.
"Why?" she couldn't help asking.
"Yao Yao, no one is more important to me than you." Li Yuan looked directly into her eyes and answered solemnly.
Facing Li Yuan's calmness and determination, Zheng Xiyao suddenly felt despicable.
"I will save Master." Zheng Xiyao replied softly. She felt her waist tighten, and the man unconsciously exerted force.
Zheng Xiyao's expression remained unchanged, "Master has given me the kindness to raise and teach me, so I will save him. But..." Zheng Xiyao held Li Yuan's face, "I will be with you, no matter what you encounter, I will be with you, Li Yuan. So you don’t have to worry, and you don’t have to differentiate between you and others. To me, you are different."
"This is what you said, you can't abandon me."
"I won't."
When Li Yuan calmed down, Zheng Xiyao didn't ask him what happened just now. They had a tacit understanding to avoid this problem. Zheng Xiyao thoughtfully changed the subject and talked about his proposal for ascension.
"I..." Li Yuan hesitated.
Zheng Xiyao knew that it was because of her that Li Yuan had always wanted to wait for her to ascend together.
"I know what you mean, but Master's situation waits for no one." Zheng Xiyao held Li Yuan's hand, "This time, please help me, okay."
Li Yuan's expression softened and he nodded: "Okay."
Zheng Xiyao's eyes flashed with joy and she couldn't help but hug Li Yuan.
"Hey, what are you doing in this broad daylight?" A familiar teasing laugh came. Zheng Xiyao raised her eyes and saw that it was Mo Jiang and Liu Jingting.
Zheng Xiyao got off Li Yuan as if nothing happened, "Why are you here?"
Li Yuan turned around and looked at the two of them, his expression obviously unhappy.
"This is not congratulations to you two for coming out of seclusion." Mo Jiang replied cynically, spinning his fan.
She and Li Yuan looked at each other in disbelief.
"Too many things have happened recently, it is necessary for us to meet." Liu Jingting said.
Later, Liu Jingting talked about the current situation. Because Li Yuan's true dragon body was exposed and he killed the dragon, it caused a sensation in all walks of life. Someone is trying to get Li Yuan before he ascends, so as to gain a greater chance.
After all, they had only heard of dragons in legends for thousands of years.
A few days ago, all walks of life put pressure on Fushengmen, and Master Lingjun was seriously injured. Afterwards, Li Yuan and the two came out of seclusion. It was said that Li Yuan's cultivation had reached the stage of overcoming the tribulation. Everyone did not believe it and did not dare to act rashly.
"So they asked you to come here to inquire about information?" Zheng Xiyao asked.
"There's nothing we can do, we can't help it." Liu Jingting smiled bitterly. Zheng Xiyao understood that after all, one was the senior brother of Xuanqing Palace and the other was the heir of Wuji Palace, and both had their own responsibilities.
Zheng Xiyao nodded to Li Yuan, and Li Yuan understood. He opened his arms and touched the ground with his right foot. The wind and clouds changed and the earth trembled. Thunder flashed in the sky, and the beasts in the valley howled, resounding throughout the world.
Looking back, Mo Jiang and Liu Jingting both knelt on the ground.
Li Yuan stopped.
The two of them stood up, and Mo Jiang said: "You can do it, kid. I didn't expect you to reach the stage of transcending tribulation." He laughed loudly.
Liu Jingting's eyes flashed with disbelief, and then his face lit up with joy, "It seems that I, Liu Jingting, will be able to witness the youngest successful person in history in my lifetime."
In the seemingly happy expressions of Liu and Mo, there was a flash of unnaturalness in their eyes. Zheng Xiyao could see the squinting, and she could see some clues.
Sure enough, at night, there were two uninvited guests in her courtyard.
"Please sit down." Zheng Xiyao asked the two of them to sit down.
Mo Jiang and Liu Jingting saw the two wine glasses already prepared on the stone table and knew in their hearts that Zheng Xiyao had been waiting for them.
"Xiyao, us"
"Needless to say," Zheng Xiyao interrupted Liu Jingting and poured wine for the two of them herself. Then he picked up the wine glass neatly and said, "Long time no see. Let's celebrate our meeting again." Zheng Xiyao drank it all in one gulp.
When Liu and Mo saw this, they also drank it all.
In the courtyard.
The moon is bright, the stars are sparse, the breeze is blowing, and the insects are chirping and the birds are chirping.
Zheng Xiyao's eyes were half-closed. Under the moonlight, her hand holding the wine glass was white and transparent. The woman's long hair was casually scattered on her shoulders, and her long red dress was fluttering in the wind, making her look lazy and seductive at the moment.
"Xiyao, go back and tidy up, we'll wait for you." Sunglasses opened his eyes and said.
"Why?" Zheng Xiyao was puzzled.
"Xiyao, you are really dangerous like this. If I don't know you, I'm afraid I will have bad thoughts about you." Liu Jingting frowned and advised, obviously not wanting the woman to look like this outside.
"Improper thoughts?" Zheng Xiyao narrowed her eyes slightly, opened her red lips slowly, and said something shocking: "Think about it. I can't control other people's thoughts. What other people think is his business. What does it matter to me?"
Women make their own decisions “People have too many ideas, and sometimes they don’t even know what they want.”
"You just trust us two so much?"
"What do you think of me?"
"Humph, you don't know?" Some emotion flashed in Mo Jiang's eyes.
"Are you sure?" Zheng Xiyao asked back. She clearly saw that Mo Jiang seemed to be thinking of something in his eyes, and his eyes froze.
"You don't know what Brother Liu and I think?"
Zheng Xiyao put down her wine glass with an indifferent expression: "I don't know."
"Ayao, you'd better not overestimate a man's self-control." The man who had been silent spoke up, exuding a dangerous aura, and a gust of cold wind blew by.
It was quiet for a moment.
This is the coercion of the late stages of distraction.
However, the woman never said anything, and after another glass of wine, she said, "Don't let this beautiful night disappoint you." As soon as she finished speaking, the chirping of insects and birds resumed around her.
Liu Jingting: "You have actually reached the integration stage."
"Okay," Zheng Xiyao put down her wine glass displeasedly, with a rare serious look on her face, "You two had better think it through before talking."
She played with the wine glass for a while, and then got another glass. "It's like you have had ideas for me, but you have never implemented them, because you know what you should do and what you shouldn't do. Once some things are done, they will be irreversible."
"Of course, and I'm very powerful. I know you don't dare."
Liu Jingting:......
Mo Jiang:......
"Have you thought about it?"
The two of them were silent for a moment, then Mo Jiang drank a glass of wine and said, "I want to go and see Li Yuan on the day he ascends, is that okay?"
Zheng Xiyao raised her eyes and looked at Mo Jiang, and the man looked at Liu Jingting.
Liu Jingting: "I don't want to miss such a rare sight."
Zheng Xiyao raised a smile and said, "Okay, okay."
The two of them didn't see the flash of coolness in her eyes.
Later, Li Yuan came to find her and glared at Liu Mo and Liu Mo fiercely when he took Zheng Xiyao away.
The two looked at each other and smiled bitterly: Zheng Xiyao's dressing up tonight turned out to be not just for the two of them.
On the day Li Yuan ascended, the sky was as blue as an endless ocean, and the clouds were as soft and white as cotton candy. The sun shines on the face, giving people a warm feeling, as if the whole world is illuminated.
Li Yuan did not notify anyone of his ascension this time, so only Qingxu, Zheng Xiyao, Liu Jingting and Mo Jiang were present.
Zheng Xiyao watched the man walk towards the Longque Terrace step by step, and a bad premonition gradually rose in her heart.
"Li Yuan," she ran to the man and took his hand, "Wait for me."
"I'll wait for you." The corners of the man's mouth raised, his brows full of smiles, warm and carefree.
However, why was the young man who was smiling just now covered in blood and with all his bones and muscles broken?
During the Thunder Tribulation, Li Yuan was experiencing the eightieth thunderstorm and was one step away from ascending.
Li Yuan was kneeling on the ground, coughing out blood.
"Li Yuan." Zheng Xiyao covered her chest and murmured in pain.
However, at this moment, Master Qingxu flew in the direction of Li Yuan.
[Host, old man Qingxu doesn’t want to block the final thunder strike for Li Yuan, right? 】
【possible. 】Zheng Xiyao thought that Qingxu had always loved Li Yuan, and maybe he didn't want his apprentice to be injured, so he took action.
"Ahhhh!" A fierce roar woke everyone up.
I saw Master Qingxu setting up a large formation above Li Yuan's head, and golden light shrouded Li Yuan's body.
Zheng Xiyao clearly knew that this was the Seven Killing Formation.
"No, no, what are you doing!"
Two chapters combined into one, a bit long
