Eight days ago, He Mansion.
Shen Jianglei came to the door as promised and was sitting in the guest seat in the main hall.
Today, she changed from yesterday's sassy dress and put on a peach blossom and snow-white gauze skirt that looked more ladylike. There were also some gold hairpins and jade ornaments on her black bun.
Not to mention, it has a unique and exotic style.
Just like the all-powerful tiger who was turned into a kitten by the immortal, ready to break free and rise up at any time.
It can be seen from the stiffness she occasionally shows that she is not used to such graceful attire.
She clearly valued this visit.
He Qinghai, who was sitting in the seat, looked embarrassed. He had discovered that his son had run away last night. Now my future daughter-in-law came to my door, and I didn’t know what to do.
After a brief chat, Shen Jianglei seemed to mention it casually and asked: "Uncle He, why do you care about others?"
It can't be said that this brat ran away secretly. He Qinghai could only say half-truths and half-false words: "Gu'er has gone back to practice. He has been practicing outside with his master since he was a child. There must have been something urgent yesterday, so he was in a hurry We said goodbye and left the city."
Shen Jianglei was extremely intelligent, and He Qinghai had a look of surprise when he first saw her coming to the door, plus his ambiguous answer now, so he roughly understood the situation.
Not only was her fiancé reluctant, he also disliked her to the point of wanting to run away.
She clenched her teeth with hatred and her red eyes wanted to eat people.
He Qinghai, who was above him, pretended not to see it, feeling worried for his son.
As a father, he still recognized Shen Jiangli. After all, it was always good for his son to have a good wife to take care of him.
It's not his fault anyway.
Shen Jiangli also knew that the impression should not be ruined, so she gathered her emotions and greeted He Qinghai for a while, and finally said goodbye.
He Qinghai comforted her while sending her out: "Gu'er rarely has a chance to come back a year, and it may take a long time next time. Once he returns to the clan, I will send someone to inform my niece."
"Uncle He, can you tell me where he practices?"
He Qinghai did not hide anything and said seriously: "I don't know about this either. I only heard him say it was a remote and secluded place in the north."
Shen Jianglei nodded calmly, said goodbye and left the He family.
On this day, she made an important decision in her life: to go out for spiritual practice.
Although she had not fought against He Gu yesterday, she felt a little oppressed during the final confrontation.
To forge an iron, you need to be strong yourself, and to marry a husband, you need an iron rod and a hammer. She already has a sense of crisis.
This mysterious master of her fiancé might be the strong man her grandfather feared.
If she doesn't work harder, she may not have a chance in the future.
Maybe he would even be kicked away by this hateful man.
Thinking about the outcome of being so frustrated, she became more motivated to fight.
The Shen family, Shen Jianglei's boudoir.
After learning about this, Shen Zhengli and his wife ran in anxiously.
"My daughter, the world outside is difficult and dangerous, and you have a fledgling family. How can you make us feel relieved?" Mrs. Shen burst into tears.
Shen Zhengli had no objection. He had always admired practical training and despised meditating behind closed doors all day long.
But with a somewhat worried look, he advised in a gentle voice: "The family's ancestral training dictates that when people go out to practice, they must reach the three realms. You are still a little short of it. It's not too late to talk about it in a few days."
The realm of cultivators is divided into one realm to nine realms, and there is also the legendary fairy realm above.
Shen Jiangli was at the peak of the Second Dao Realm at the age of twenty-four, and was considered outstanding among ordinary families.
"The Red Cloud Sect is recruiting disciples soon. My daughter doesn't want to waste time waiting until next time." Shen Jiangli changed into a red dress and packed her things.
After ancient evolution, the Xuandao Continent is now divided into five regions, namely the East Dao Territory, the West Demon Territory, the North Immortal Territory, the South Demon Territory, and the Zhonghuang Continent where the imperial power is supreme.
The Chiyun Sect uses fire to build its way, and is one of the best sects in the Northern Immortal Territory except the Wu Sect of Dragon Head.
Shen Jiangli happens to have a medium-to-high-grade fire spirit root, and has long been interested in joining this sect.
But now the trip has been moved forward a year because of He Gu.
"My daughter is determined to be higher than others, and she also knows that her life is very powerful. She hopes that her parents will fulfill her wish." Shen Jianglei bowed with her gun in her hand, her words made up her mind.
"Okay, okay!" Shen Zhengli laughed three times upon seeing this, extremely pleased. After he smiled, he added: "Dad supports you. I will ask the Great Elder to send you on this trip."
Although Mrs. Shen was reluctant to part with her daughter, she understood the general outline and said nothing more about the matter.
The next day, Shen Jiangli left Qingshan City under the escort of the elder of the Shen family.
Above the goshawk, Shen Jiangli looked back at her hometown. After that, she made up her mind.
"He Gu, I will capture you sooner or later, even if you escape to the ends of the earth and turn into ashes..."
…
The imperial capital of Zhonghuangzhou, deep inside the palace.
The maids were waiting for the graceful empress to take a bath in an orderly manner.
The belt of her clothes was untied, and Gu Cangyue's noble dragon robe was carefully taken off by the maid, and then pieces of dark-scented underwear were removed.
Suddenly, a plump and ripe jade body was exposed to the moist air.
The skin is delicate and as white as suet.
The mountains are majestic and the valleys are quiet.
The curves are hot and a masterpiece.
Even the maids on the side couldn't help but their eyes moved a few times.
The water vapor was thick, and the empress slowly stepped into the spring pool with her long and beautiful feet. The ripples of water finally covered this perfect jade body.
"Please step back first." The empress raised her delicate jade hands, which were dripping with water, to call the maids back.
After the maids had left, she suddenly said: "Come in."
As soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow flashed down and knelt beside the spring pool.
"My lord." The woman's voice was cold and respectful.
"Well, how's the check going?" The empress gently touched the winding snow-white shoulders. Underneath his seemingly calm face, his mind is not so calm.
"It is true that the eldest elder of the He family is an acquaintance of He Qing. According to her recollection, when she met He Qing outside Shiwanda Mountain, he was injured and alone, without his children. He Qing then entered Shiwanda Mountain alone. , and there has been no news since.”
The empress's beautiful eyes were long: "Taizu met the ancestors of the He family in Wolong City. Wolong City was only a hundred miles away from the Shiwanda Mountain. The He family, who has a strong Seven Mirrors, had no trace of the Zhonghuang Continent before. If none of them stayed, then the He family should have moved here from the East Dao Territory.
Send people to the East Domain to secretly investigate all the big families with the surname He four hundred years ago. You continue to trace the whereabouts of my nephew. You have carefully checked all the way from the imperial capital to Shiwanda Mountain. Let King Dongling solve the inconvenient places for you. "
"yes."
"Go." The empress tiredly waved her jade hands.
The woman in black quietly disappeared.
An inconspicuous red rope was tied around the empress's neck, and the lower end fell into the mountains.
At this moment, she pulled up the red rope with a "pop" sound, and a sapphire appeared behind the soft shock waves.
There was a bit of white light swaying slightly in the jade, and she was fascinated by it.
The empress got this jade from a rebel. If it weren't for this life jade, she wouldn't even know whether her nephew was alive or dead.
"Li'er, where are you? My aunt has been looking for you for seventeen years."
The empress frowned and looked ashamed.
"I am ashamed of my sister for causing trouble to the He family back then. Now you are the only one who can make up for it..."
