"You guys chat."
Seeing Mu Chuxuan looking at him, Xu Yue thought for a while, left Lu Jiuzhou and the others, and walked away.
Although the two of them had met before, they were either in battle or facing off against the enemy.
So speaking of it, this is the first time Xu Yue has truly faced Mu Chuxuan directly after a hundred years.
"Xuan'er."
When he walked up to him and looked at the almost unchanged tall woman in front of him, Xu Yue shouted a little embarrassedly.
"Just call me Chuxuan." Mu Chuxuan said softly.
"This... okay, Chu Xuan." Xu Yue scratched his head, feeling a little uncomfortable with this title for a while.
Mu Chuxuan smiled and waved his hand, and bits of golden light dispersed like dust, causing the area where the two of them were to become confused, cutting off everyone's vision and perception.
"When did we meet?"
After doing this, Mu Chuxuan turned around and looked through the transparent barrier at the blue-haired woman in the distance who was staring here with a bulging face.
"A long time ago... in Beihai, before I met you, but the relationship was truly confirmed in the secret realm." Xu Yue also looked at Lan Ru who was very anxious and pretended to be indifferent. Yan Yan showed a gentle smile.
"Didn't I hear that you two were fighting to the death before?" Mu Chuxuan blinked, her eyelashes trembling.
"That's a misunderstanding." Xu Yue shook his head.
"Okay... As long as you like it and treat you well, that's fine." Mu Chuxuan nodded and whispered, and then the two of them fell into a brief silence.
Xu Yue felt an indescribable feeling in his heart when he looked at this woman whom he had loved and pursued but was rejected. Mu Chuxuan did not look directly at Xu Yue and put her hand into the other hand. There was something gently rubbing in the cuff.
Fortunately, both of them are rational adults. This embarrassing situation did not last long before Xu Yue broke it.
"How do you feel about her?"
Xu Yue smiled lightly and looked at Lan Ruyan, who was already stamping his feet anxiously outside, asking for advice from his best friend.
Hearing this, Mu Chuxuan also smiled and said: "The little girl is very cute. Although she seems to have some internal problems, she is very brave, strong and has good strength. If I insist on saying so, I don't think you are worthy of me."
"Hey Chuxuan, I am also the hero of the party now, why am I not worthy of it!" Xu Yue asked with an unhappy look on his face.
"A heroic lord? I saw Master Xu's heroic appearance in front of senior Lan Wanchu just now."
Mu Chuxuan covered her mouth and chuckled, and Xu Yue also awkwardly prevaricated. The relationship between the two quietly changed invisibly. There seemed to be something more, and it seemed that something was missing.
After a while, Mu Chuxuan waved her hand, stopped teasing Xu Yue, and said softly: "Okay, I isolated this place, not specifically to ask about Miss Lan's situation, to cause misunderstanding... Tell me, what do you want? What to ask you."
Hearing this, Xu Yue also straightened his expression, shook his head and said: "Oh, I can't hide anything from you, so I asked... Chu Xuan, did you have any premonitions about this battle at Yidi Mountain, but... And he deliberately failed to stop it and allowed it to happen."
Xu Yue's smile gradually disappeared and turned serious.
This was the problem he suddenly realized when he was negotiating with Duan Wuya and others just now.
A hundred years ago, why did Mu Chuxuan reject Xu Yue?
If they say they don't have feelings for each other, no one would believe it. After all, the relationship between the two is so close that for a while, everyone thought they were already together.
For example, Qi Yuan once jokingly said that if you wait to drink Xu Yue and Mu Chuxuan's wedding banquet, you will have to pay double the share.
However, things backfired, and in the end Mu Chuxuan did decline Xu Yue's pursuit.
The reason is that her mission and identity do not allow for romance. She has practiced imperial arts early, understood the true meaning of the guardian clan, and even secretly communicated with the "Emperor" of Yidi Mountain. , must devote all his life's efforts to the cause of protecting the fairyland.
"I'm sorry, Xu Yue... I... can no longer be distracted and do other things... If there is trouble in the Immortal Realm in the future, I will not hesitate to sacrifice myself, Yidi Mountain, and even you... So, You won't like such a woman, and if we are together, she will be irresponsible to you."
This was Mu Chuxuan's reply to Xu Yue at that time. This passage also fully reflected the belief and character of the emperor's daughter of Yidi Mountain.
Now, combined with this sentence, various previous signs indicate that Mu Chuxuan is not ignorant of Duan Wuya and others' plan to attack Yidi Mountain. She has made many preparations for this: contact them in advance. The disciples sent into the secret realm by foreign aid such as Jianyuan Mu of the Yushen Sect all retained a trace of their true spirit. Even the boundary stones laid before the start of the secret realm trial were all paving the way for Emperor Sacrifice's back-up plan.
Of course, she may not have expected that Duan Wuya and others were so powerful, nor did she expect that Tian Mo Ridge had long been turned into a demon cave and the source of all disasters.
But as far as the results are concerned, after this war, internal differences of opinion were forcibly broken by blood and chaos, and the power of the Immortal Realm was greatly integrated. Compared with the previous state of separate camps, the complete and united Immortal Realm is much stronger. , isn’t this the effect Mu Chuxuan wants?
Therefore, Xu Yue had to think about what Mu Chuxuan's original intention was.
Facing the other party's question, Mu Chuxuan was silent for a long time, and in the end, he just said one sentence lightly.
"I said before that all the disciples of Yidi Mountain can die for Emperor Mountain, and Yidi Mountain originally exists for the revival of the Immortal Realm... This world needs a bloody battle to baptize it. Let people see clearly who is the enemy and who is our compatriot."
Mu Chuxuan's voice was very pleasant, but at this time, she said with self-mockery: "But I really didn't expect that this battle would be so tragic. In my expectation, after the Emperor's Sacrifice, the Mutian Divine Sect should have been defeated. , Yidi Mountain can unite with other sects to pursue the victory and force them to sign a series of treaties, thereby restraining the power of the entire Immortal Domain and unanimously facing the outside world, but... alas."
Mu Chuxuan showed a somewhat bitter smile and murmured: "If one day I go to hell, I will apologize to my fellow Yidi Mountain sects and fellow Immortal Territory compatriots who died in this battle... I don't want to lie to you, you are now I also got the answer, what do you want to say? Do you think I am unreasonable, or... blame me for being cruel."
Mu Chuxuan grabbed the arm of her left hand with her right hand and seemed to dare not look into Xu Yue's eyes. She turned her head and looked at the ground with a pitiful expression.
Xu Yue was speechless. He felt a little complicated when he saw the proud and dignified emperor in front of him with her head hanging down and recounting her crimes.
It wasn't until a moment later that he slowly shook his head and whispered: "No, what you do is not for yourself, but for the world, and... someone has to do it, but I hope that in the future, Don't bear everything by yourself. If possible, I would also be the villain, or the so-called 'mastermind'."
Mu Chuxuan was startled, with a slight pain in his chest. He looked up at the familiar and smiling young man in front of him. His heartstrings were plucked, and his golden pupils were faintly fluorescent. After a long time, he said something like a mosquito. : "Thank you, Xu Yue..."
"You're welcome."
Xu Yue waved his hand generously, then stepped forward and patted her shoulder naturally, and said with a chuckle: "Okay, don't be so sad, this is not our unparalleled and confident Emperor Daughter of Yidi Mountain. ! Cheer up, you’ll still be busy in the future.”
Xu Yue's voice was soft and powerful, giving encouragement to Mu Chuxuan. Then he turned his head and looked at the big sapphire eyes that were almost attached to the golden barrier. He said with a thick smile on his face: "Let's go, there are already Too many people are looking this way.”
"good."
Mu Chuxuan also smiled and nodded, burying the unspoken regret in his heart forever, and then removed the barrier here with a wave of his hand.
Buzz!
The barrier suddenly disappeared, and Lan Ruyan was stunned. She was caught red-handed. Looking at Xu Yue and Mu Chuxuan who were staring at her with smiles, her pretty face immediately turned red and her mouth opened, as if she wanted to quibble about something. I didn't know what to say, so I turned around with shame and anger, trying to escape from here.
"Yan'er."
Xu Yue's smile did not diminish, he went up and took her hand, pretending to be confused and said: "Don't leave in a hurry, why are you here? What were you peeking at just now?"
"I need you to take care of it! Let go!"
Lan Ruyan's face turned redder and she shook her a few times, only to find that Xu Yue was still holding her tightly and would not let go at all.
In the distance, Duan Mutian watched this scene quietly, his eyes darkened, and he turned and left.
"Okay Yan'er, I'm leaving now, so stop making trouble."
Xu Yue chuckled lightly, and after letting go of Lan Ruyan, he reached out and rubbed her hair. The other person suddenly became like a kitten and stopped struggling.
But still ignored him.
"Hehe, boss, it's not because you and the eldest sister have been talking inside for so long that Little Lanxian is anxious." There was laughter from the side. Xu Yue turned around and saw Xiao Hu, Fu Xiang, Shang Jun, the oiran, and the wild girl came over.
"Tch, what are you talking about? Thanks to me telling you so much before entering the secret realm, why did Yan'er come back early to report the news and it didn't work?" Xu Yue raised his eyebrows.
"Hey, boss, you can't blame us. It's Mo Chen and the other old demons who are too cunning. Little Lanxian can't argue with her, but we have always firmly believed in her." Xiao Hu said, spreading his hands.
"Is that so, Mr. Shang?"
Xu Yue looked at the heir of Three Thousand Swords Sect, and when he saw the other person nodded, he casually raised his hand to Xiao Hu, and apologized perfunctorily: "Oh, if that's the case, then I really misunderstood Great Genius Xiao. "
"Feel sorry."
However, before Xiao Hu could speak, Shang Jun, who came over, apologized directly to Xu Yue, leaving him a little confused.
"how……"
"A hundred years ago, it's not that I didn't help you. The sect had instructions not to disobey. Before, I also wanted to take action, but I was bound by others and couldn't act rashly... In short, I hope you won't be surprised."
Shang Jun was a little ashamed. As soon as he raised his hands and before he could clasp his fists, Xu Yue pressed his hands down and said with a smile: "Don't be like this, you are really out of touch."
However, Shang Jun was silent for a few seconds, then shook his head and said: "I don't just worship you, between you and me, naturally there is no need for this. But if the Three Thousand Sword Sect could help you a hundred years ago, maybe the Xiao organization... can keep more People."
Hearing this, Xu Yue's eyes darkened, and he no longer stopped Shang Jun's actions. The upright swordsman bowed solemnly, and Xu Yue remained silent, accepting the pain on behalf of his dead brothers.
After doing this, his tense body relaxed slightly, and he smiled at Shang Jun and said, "Did Jiang Li give you that thing?"
"Give it."
Shang Jun nodded, stretched out his right hand, looked at the brand-new Dawn Ring, and said with a smile: "I always felt that you guys were not doing your job properly when you got together. In addition, the sect has been urging me to practice, so I refused again and again. I accepted your invitation... Now that I think about it, it’s really a pity that I couldn’t spend those years with you.”
"It doesn't matter, time will come."
Xu Yue was very open-minded, and then he moved closer to Mr. Shang, and whispered into his ear: "Hey, when did you and this beautiful fellow Taoist from Wanhua Valley... get together?"
"What is hooking up?"
Shang Jun straightened up and said in a deep voice: "Can a legitimate relationship be called hooking up?"
"Fellow Daoist Xu, I can hear you."
From the side, the long voice of the courtesan also came. Xu Yue looked and saw this flower-like woman looking at him with a smile.
"Just hear it if you hear it. You are praising others. Are you afraid that others will hear you? Just don't forget to notify me when you get married."
Xu Yue smiled and waved his hand, then turned his head and looked at the wasteland girl's thin face under the cloak and her gray eyes. His expression softened, and he took the initiative to step forward and give her a simple hug.
"Good sister, I'm lucky for you this time." Xu Yue said with emotion.
"No, you're fine. Grandma said you haven't been to Huangcheng for a long time. If you have time, you must come to my house for a few meals. But you must tell me in advance when you enter the city so that she can prepare the ingredients." The voice was clear and bright, making Mu Chuxuan, Xiao Hu and other people who were familiar with her stunned.
Only when facing Xu Yue, this silent woman would appear so normal.
"Okay, you go back and tell our mother that I will definitely go when I have time!"
Xu Yue let go of Huang Nu, like a brother who was about to leave, saying goodbye to his sister.
In the end, he looked at Xiao Hu, who was as bad as Qi Yuan. After thinking about it, he threw his hand and threw something.
"Take it, it's yours."
Snapped.
Xiao Hu subconsciously reached out and took it, then looked at the word "Xiao" on the ring and looked up in confusion.
"This thing has been yours for a long time, but due to various reasons, I have never been able to give it to you... Brother, I hope you don't blame me. From the first day we met, you and Lao Lu Jiangli have nothing to do with them. the difference."
"Boss..."
Xiao Hu's eyes began to turn red quickly, and his voice was choked.
He failed to officially join Xiao, although he kept saying it didn't matter, but in fact, who could understand the pain and grievance in his heart?
He had been waiting for this day for too long.
"Why are you crying? Isn't this a happy thing? By the way, there's also..."
Xu Yue looked at Fu Xiang, who was about the same height as Xiao Hu next to him, and said with a smile: "Be good to my brothers and sisters. Come to the Sea of Clear Sky to find me when you have time."
"What sibling? She..."
Before Xiao Hu finished speaking, Fu Xiang held down his head and smiled at Xu Yuetian: "I know, Brother Xu, come to the West Desert to play when you have time!"
"good."
Xu Yue smiled and nodded. He was still very satisfied with the girl Fu Xiang.
