Volume 5 Chapter 226 The Bottom of the Endless Cliff
Although Wujue Cliff was dangerous, it was not difficult for Bai Fei, who was in the saint realm. It didn't take long for him to get his feet on the ground.
At the bottom of Wujue cliff, there is a cave.
Looking up, he saw misty clouds, which reminded Bai Fei of the deep valley in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range.
That's a very distant memory.
The creek gurgled, and after crossing the muddy path, the eyes suddenly opened up.
The fairy atmosphere here is rich, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant.
Looking around, there are rare and exotic plants everywhere.
Behind a clump of flowerbeds, there are several rooms scattered around, and there is an aura pulsating inside.
Suddenly, Bai Fei's eyes narrowed.
A little girl came out from behind the flower garden and was looking at the strange visitor curiously.
But I saw her, about five or six years old, wearing a pink gauze skirt and two braids. Her skin was as white as jade, as delicate and cute as a porcelain doll.
She wasn't afraid when she saw Bai Fei. She only heard her milky voice and asked, "Are you here to see big sister?"
big sister?
Bai Fei realized that it must be Tang Kelan.
Just as he was about to speak, a figure rushed out of the house. It was not Tang Kelan.
Bai Fei looked at her.
Tang Kelan's figure only stagnated for a moment, then flew into his arms, hugged him tightly, and burst into tears.
"Bai Fei... I thought I would never see you again."
Her tears soaked Bai Fei's clothes, and her delicate body trembled violently, as if she had received an extremely serious blow.
"Kelan, I'm late." Bai Fei stroked her hair and comforted her gently, feeling guilt and love in his heart.
"By the way, come with me." After a while, Tang Kelan stopped crying, took Bai Fei's hand, turned to the little girl and said, "Du Juan, you come too."
…
An old man sat cross-legged on the bed, with the aura of death lingering on his body.
Bai Fei immediately moved forward, his immortal power bursting out.
After a while, the old man opened his eyes, nodded slightly towards Bai Fei, and said calmly: "This must be the Bai Sheng that Miss Tang mentioned."
Bai Fei nodded.
The old man added: "Thank you, sir, for your help. My time has come. Sir, don't waste your immortal power in vain. I am satisfied with having this cup of tea."
Bai Fei retracted his hand. With his ability, he could naturally see through the old man's condition at a glance. The old man was almost at the end of his life and could not be saved by human power.
He had many questions, but he didn't ask them. He also believed that the other party would explain them.
"Du Juan, come." The old man said softly.
"Grandpa!" The little girl Du Juan climbed onto the bed, lay on the old man's knees, and called out.
The old man stroked her head lovingly, raised his head, looked at Bai Fei and Tang Kelan, and slowly said: "I haven't said anything during this time. I guess Miss Tang also has a lot of doubts in her heart, so I will just talk about it together today." come out."
After a pause, he asked: "Have you ever heard of Wujueshen?"
Bai Fei and Tang Kelan looked at each other, shook their heads and said, "I've never heard of it."
The old man said: "That's right, for those people, this name is a shackle in their hearts, and since something like that happened again, they naturally don't want to mention it. Except for you two, maybe even most people in the God Clan have never heard of it. Pass."
"I think back then, Wujue Island, Wujue Palace, and Wujue God were very famous among the gods... Oh, by the way, I heard Miss Tang talking about Baoxuan Island. Wujue Island was the predecessor of Baoxuan Island. Naturally, there was no Baoxuan Palace before, but Wujue Palace. Come to think of it, even among the top experts on Baoxuan Island today, very few people know about this, alas!"
The old man sighed and continued: "Thousands of years ago, the Gods had only one big force, Wujue Palace, Wujueshen, and it was the belief of all the Gods monks. At that time, Wujueshen's actions were indeed a bit extreme, and because of this I have offended many people, but those people are afraid of Wujueshen’s strength and power and dare not speak out.”
"One day, a guest came to Wujue Palace... The guest talked with Wujueshen in the secret room for seven days and seven nights... No third party knew what they talked about, but since then, Wujueshen He restrained himself a lot, and spent most of his time with his Taoist companions, and left all the affairs to others to take care of. However, it is hard to fathom the human heart, and finally one day, one day..."
The old man became inexplicably sad and angry, and it took a long time for him to calm down a little.
Bai Fei and Tang Kelan looked at each other.
The old man continued: "...led by Ming Ri, Yi Dan, and Yi Zhen, they united more than a dozen forces to secretly plot against Wujue Palace..."
"In that battle, there was really a river of blood inside and outside Wujue Palace, and corpses were everywhere."
"At that time, suppressed by the power of heaven and earth, even Wujue Shen could not overcome the shackles of the eighth-grade earth immortal peak. How could he, with his own strength, fight against dozens of strong men who were only slightly weaker than him? The siege? Coupled with the fact that many powerful men in Wujue Palace defected on the battlefield, the situation became even more unfavorable to Wujueshen, but...but he still killed nearly half of the enemies..."
At this point, the old man trembled all over, clenched his fists tightly, and his joints cracked.
Bai Fei's heart skipped a beat.
That battle must be earth-shattering. The old man said it simply, but the real battle situation must be so tragic that it is unbearable to see.
The old man was silent for a long time before slowly calming down.
He wiped away the remaining tears from his eyes and smiled.
"Wu Jueshen knew that the situation was over, and he was ready to fight to the death. Those people were already wary of him, and no one was willing to touch this bad luck. How could they have thought that this was Wu Jueshen's deliberate action? While they were retreating, Wujueshen seized this fleeting opportunity and saved the madam and the old man. Those who wanted to chase them were already too late."
"At that time, Madam was pregnant with Liujia, and her fighting ability was greatly reduced. Even if I fought to protect her, she would not be able to escape. Fortunately, the owner of Mengdie Island, Li Mengdie, was merciful and had a chance to be rescued by Wujueshen. Listen. Miss Tang said that it is a pity that Li Mengdie has passed away!"
"When those people saw us jumping off Wujue Cliff, they must have thought that we were all dead. How could they have thought..."
"The Danger of Wujue Cliff is indeed worthy of its name. With Wujueshen's strength, injuries on his body, and the two of us, the chance of survival is very slim... Later, Wujueshen told me that the guest It was expected that he would be in a terrible disaster, so I left him two magic weapons before leaving. It was precisely because of these life-saving things that the three of us were able to escape death, but the magic weapon was also broken."
"Another magic weapon..."
"My wife's injuries were not serious. After giving birth to a daughter, she only lasted for three years before she died. From then on, Wujueshen locked herself up..."
Bai Fei glanced at Du Juan, and he could actually guess that this little girl was the daughter of Wujueshen.
"Another three years later, Wujueshen finally died due to excessive sadness. He tried every means to freeze the little master in ice. This letter lasted for a thousand years."
"You two, I can feel the great changes taking place in the Canglan Realm, and my strength has improved as a result. But to be able to save Miss Tang with such strength is still a dream, and here, I have to mention the guest. The second magic weapon left behind."
"Wu Jueshen told me before he died that when the little master wakes up, this magic weapon will be used."
The old man smiled and continued: "In the past thousand years, I don't know how many people have fallen off Wujue Cliff for various reasons and have accumulated bones, but I still dare not use that magic weapon, just because the little master has not woken up yet. .”
"That day, the little master woke up suddenly. I didn't dare to hesitate at all. I took the magic weapon and stayed at the bottom of Wujue Cliff, and then I rescued Miss Tang. You don't need to thank me, this is not me or even Wu Jueshen's credit is entirely due to the magic weapon left by the guest, and also benefited from the guest's accurate prophecy. Wu Jueshen did not tell me what he and the guest actually talked about during those seven days and seven nights. Something, but it can be seen from his words and deeds that he has endless gratitude and admiration for that guest, and that level is not accessible to people like me."
Could it be Senior Zhan again? Or is it his men? Bai Fei thought to himself.
Zhan Mingxiao had given him so many surprises that he naturally wouldn't dwell on this matter.
"With Master Bai's ability, Wujueya can come and go freely. I have been alone for thousands of years. Now I have finally completed Wujueshen's instructions. The oil has run out and the lamp has dried up. I am relieved."
"Master Bai, the only thing I can't worry about is my little master Du Juan. I have something to ask of you, sir, and I hope you..."
Bai Fei understood what he meant, glanced at Du Juan, and said solemnly: "Don't worry, old man, I will definitely do my best to cultivate Du Juan. If she intends to control the entire God Clan, I will help her fulfill her wish."
The old man shook his head and said: "Everything in the past is like a cloud of smoke. As long as this girl can live a peaceful and happy life, I will be satisfied."
…
Tombstones are newly erected, and the dead are gone.
Bai Fei, Tang Kelan and Du Juan kept vigil for the old man for seven days.
In any case, the old man stayed alone for thousands of years and helped Tang Kelan save his life, which was enough to win Bai Fei's respect.
Bai Fei didn't know very well what kind of person Wujueshen was, but at least he had a good vision and he didn't misjudge the old man.
"Do you really want her to become my teacher?"
Beside the stone table, Tang Kelan leaned on Bai Fei's chest, glanced at the cuckoo chasing butterflies behind the flower bed, and asked softly.
"If possible, I would rather teach her myself. After all, this is my promise to the old man. However, I am afraid that it will delay her. I think she is very dependent on you. It is up to you to teach her. I will also Don’t worry, why, aren’t you willing?”
"No." In fact, Tang Kelan was absolutely convinced, but he was just a little emotional.
"Can we stay here one more day?"
Tang Kelan leaned into Bai Fei's arms and asked softly.
Bai Fei was stunned for a moment. He had promised to leave here after a while. He saw Tang Kelan's eyelashes fluttering a few times and a blush on his cheeks. He didn't know what the girl was thinking, so he immediately agreed.
…
The cuckoo was still carefree and jumping around chasing the flying butterflies. She would occasionally glance at the sudden appearance of the barrier, shake her little head, and then start playing again.
Within the barrier, Tang Kelan burst out with unprecedented enthusiasm and took the absolute initiative.
But it didn't take long for her to be defeated, and she had no choice but to let Bai Fei gallop around with his whip.
After the enthusiasm passed, Tang Kelan cried.
"Bai Fei, I'm sorry for Huizi, I'm sorry for Aqiu, I'm sorry for Huahua, I'm sorry for Qingqing, I'm sorry for Yanyan, I..."
Tang Kelan's heart felt like a knife piercing her heart when she thought of the five followers. She also truly felt the despair and loss that Luo Qingcheng had been feeling for so long. Only those who have experienced this kind of thing personally can feel the pain like a sharp knife piercing the heart. Sadness and helplessness.
Bai Fei hugged her tightly and warmed her with his tenderness.
"Can she still be saved?"
After a while, Tang Kelan held back her tears. She was asking about Xianghua. When Bai Fei said that these things were related to the dragon's shadow, she realized that she couldn't hate Xianghua at all.
"Maybe!" Bai Fei is not sure. After all, he still doesn't know where Xianghua has gone.
"Bai Fei, promise me, if it is not a last resort, let her live! She...she is also a miserable person. After she wakes up, she will be so sad when she finds out what she has done!"
"Kelan, thank you."
To be honest, Bai Fei had no intention of getting rid of Xianghua directly from the beginning. After all, the second-grade Immortal Lord was too rare. Perhaps, in this world of Canglan, no one would take this step again in the future.
