Chapter 6: All the way east
Plop! Plop!
Xie Yi and Xie Qiang didn't dare to hesitate anymore. They both knelt down, facing Zhou Hao, and kowtowed to apologize, making the ground clang. Especially Xie Qiang, no matter how severe the pain in his whole body was, the pain was only getting worse now. His heart was already dominated by fear! At this moment, the two of them completely realized that they had caused a huge disaster!
"Zhou Daxian, we were wrong, we were wrong, please spare us, we are ignorant, we are blind, you, the great immortal, do not care about the faults of the lesser immortals, please let us go!"
"Great Immortal forgive me, Great Immortal spare my life. The Xie family deserves death for provoking the Zhou family. Please give me a way to survive. We will be grateful and never forget the kindness of Great Immortal in our lives!"
At the same time, Xie Feng also knelt down and apologized to Zhou Hao in every possible way, saying: "Brother Zhou, Taoist brother, we, the three brothers of the Xie family, have committed such a catastrophe tonight. I only ask that brother Taoist have more, and don't affect the Xie family. We The three of them are willing to accept any punishment!”
At this time, Xie Yulan and Xie Fan, two fairies from the Xie family, also came to Gongchen Bridge. They saw Xie Feng, Xie Yi and Xie Qiang kowtow to the handsome young man in white to admit their mistake, although they felt very uncomfortable. , but they also understand the seriousness of the matter.
The Zhou family is a behemoth in the Nine Immortal Realms. No sect in the Immortal Realm dares to offend, not even Sun, Moon and Heaven.
There were rumors that the destruction of the previous era in the Immortal Realm was due to the first ancestor of the Zhou family. The Zhou ancestor was the real founder of this era, not the nine unparalleled masters that everyone knows.
As we all know, the nine great immortal realms are headed by the Daluo Immortal Territory. The main reason is that the Daluo Immortal Territory has the strongest overall strength. If other immortal realms have Tiandu as the center of power, they dominate and control the rise and fall of an immortal realm. The Daluo Immortal Domain is different. It is a three-legged situation. Although Daluo Tiandu occupies the first place on the surface, the Zhou family and Kunlun Mountain are not restrained and act independently.
One is the first immortal family, and the other is the home of the gods!
Xie Yulan and Xie Fan stepped forward and faced Zhou Hao. They bowed their upper bodies slightly, nodded in greeting, and said deeply: "Please be generous to the Zhou family and forgive the offense committed by the Xie family's children!"
Although Xie Yulan has always been at odds with Xie Yi and Xie Qiang, this moment concerns the entire Xie family after all, and Xie Feng seems to be involved. She has admired the third brother, the number one young genius in the family, since she was a child, so she is willing to be humble and noble. The head intercedes for him.
Xie Fan is the youngest daughter of Xie Shangyuan, the current head of the Xie family. Although she is young, she is smart and has a good understanding of the world of people in the fairyland. Although the boy in white in front of him is alone, since it is confirmed that he is a member of the Zhou family, it means that he has the entire Zhou family behind him. Who dares to touch a hair on him? Not to mention the human-immortal family, it is the sacred fairy race. The family will light the soul lamp for the newly born clan members. Once the lamp goes out, it means death! This young man in white was able to come to Shuntian City, so he was naturally an important member of the younger generation of the Zhou family. He was a genuine foreign genius. Killing him would be tantamount to pushing the Xie family into doom.
However, Zhou Hao, the person involved, felt a little flattered. Now all the eyes of the audience were looking at him. He became the center of attention. He was pointed at and talked about non-stop. Even people with bad ears could hear the gossip clearly.
"I have already said that this young man in white is a talented person. He can fight with Xie Feng at a young age. He must be a genius from outside the country. Look, as expected, I have a unique vision." Someone among the onlookers was full of enthusiasm and pointed to the bridge. , said with joy.
"You can pull him down. You just said clearly that he couldn't last a round in Xie Feng's hands, and yet you still want to place a bet on him to lose!" someone next to him said.
"Why are you so willing to slander others? Besides, the final bet didn't come through. Don't you all think that Xie Feng will win? Huh, is it fun for the eldest brother to laugh at the second brother?" The man's face flushed at first, and then he became confident. .
"I really didn't expect that this young man in white would be a member of the Zhou family of the Great Luo Immortal Realm. He really can't be judged by his appearance! Although the Xie family is a hegemon in Shuntian City and is considered one of the top ten forces among celebrities, it can't be touched This super big iron plate last week still has to pretend to be a grandson, no, a real grandson." Someone said with emotion and sarcasm.
"Now that the selection of new students in the Mingmi Temple is about to begin, more and more young golden immortals from all over the Immortal Realm are becoming stars. Shuntian City is the giant city closest to the Mingmi Temple, and it is bound to gather forces from all directions. The appearance of this person from the Zhou family It just proves that the geniuses from all walks of life have already arrived, and they are just waiting for the ancient academy to ring the bell and open the gate." Someone said in a deep voice.
"I don't know which young geniuses from the other six major immortal realms will come. How do they compare with the young golden immortals from our Sun and Moon Immortal Region? I really want to see them first!" Some people couldn't wait and said excitedly.
"Some time ago, rumors leaked out that the Six Immortal Realms will send out young talents from all the major heavenly capitals this time. Since even the Zhou family's children have appeared today, it seems that this news is true. Those legendary sects , families, forces, etc., will all show up one by one!" Someone said mysteriously.
"Fellow Taoist, don't let other people's ambitions destroy your own prestige. We in the Sun and Moon Immortal Domain also have many talented people. Although we dare not say that we are superior to the six domains, we can still be no weaker than others and do not teach other domains to be more beautiful than others." Someone. He said unconvinced.
"Yes, in our Sun Moon Immortal Domain, since the beginning of the Nine Realms Era, when the Sun and Moon twin masters established the universe, strong men have emerged one after another, and the masters have become new over time. What's more, this time is the recruitment of the academy hosted by the Sun Moon Immortal Domain's own home court, and the other six domains are no more. This is an away game, which is enough to prove that the Sun and Moon Immortal Realm has a high status among the seven Immortal Realms." Someone said impassionedly.
"I have a question that I have been puzzling over. Forget about the Ancient Immortal Realm, everyone knows that it is a broken world that has existed since ancient times, and there are countless immortals and gods in it. But why is the Hunyuan Immortal Realm never considered or invited? ?" Someone asked with doubts in their hearts.
When the question was raised, the crowd was silent for a moment. Everyone looked at each other in confusion, not knowing where to start. Obviously, this question was puzzling to more than just one person.
"I know that the Hunyuan Immortal Realm has existed for a very long time. It is even said that it is the same era as the Ancient Immortal Realm." Finally, someone broke the silence and gave the answer.
"The same era? Could it be the original era - the Ancient Era!" Many people exclaimed.
The man who knew the answer nodded and continued slowly: "In the ancient era, the immortal family in the Hunyuan Immortal Domain claimed to be the last immortal clan, the True Immortal of the Hunyuan Realm, and regarded the immortals in the seven great Immortal Domains as false immortals. . They look down upon our Seven Immortal Realms very much and are unwilling to interact with the Seven Realms at all. They believe that contact with the pseudo-immortal world will pollute the immortal energy and degenerate into demons."
"Bah, what era are you in, and you have degenerated into demons? I think those people in the Hunyuan Immortal Realm are just a bunch of old-timers and stubborn people. Now that we are in the Nine Realms Era, we can still distinguish between immortals and demons so clearly, so to speak Aren’t all demons in the Fallen Fairy Realm? They can’t coexist harmoniously with us.” Some people couldn’t help but said with disdain.
"Although the Hunyuan Immortal Domain is one of the Immortal Domains, it has never thought about interoperability. It has always adhered to the old rules and never changed from the past! In their world, the ancient times have never passed, and the grievances between immortals and demons will never be resolved even if they last forever. They do It is the last immortal clan, but it is definitely not the last immortal." Someone put forward their own opinion.
"Alas, it doesn't matter if I don't mention this Hunyuan Immortal Realm, it makes people speechless." Everyone came to a unanimous conclusion.
Zhou Hao listened and found that they were getting further and further apart. He simply didn't bother to pay attention to these people and just wanted to talk. Anyway, he just wanted to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible. He had only been here for one day, but actually It has caused a storm in the whole city. How can it continue like this? Will he still be remembered every day in the future? How to practice in this way?
"Cultivation? The Mingshixiang they just mentioned is a fairy academy that is enrolling students. Can't I try it? Yes, isn't this the teacher resource that I, a loose immortal, are most lacking now? It's amazing. This special Is it tailor-made for me? Haha..." Zhou Hao thought of practice and suddenly connected a hot topic among the crowd.
On the opposite side, the three brothers Xie Feng, Xie Qiang and Xie Yi were still kneeling. Xie Qiang and Xie Yi were even more addicted to kowtow. They mechanically apologized earnestly, admitted their mistakes, and begged Zhou Hao for forgiveness.
The sisters Xie Yulan and Xie Fan saw a smile suddenly appear on Zhou Hao's face, and wondered if he was willing to resolve this unpleasantness because of the sincerity of the Xie family's apology?
"Brother Zhou Dao, how have you considered it? Our Xie family is willing to do anything to compensate for this unintentional offense to the Zhou family. We only ask for your forgiveness." Xie Feng saw that Zhou Hao was smiling and hurriedly spoke. Ask tentatively.
Zhou Hao came back to his senses when he heard Xie Feng calling him. He glanced around the five members of the Xie family, walked forward slowly, and said: "Our Zhou family has always convinced people with reason. This matter tonight The instigators are Xie Yi and Xie Qiang, so first I have to reason with you two."
The two of them were trembling all over, with their heads hanging down, and kowtowed: "Great Immortal, please forgive me, Great Immortal, please forgive me. The little Immortal is blind and has offended the Great Immortal. Please forgive me, please forgive me..."
As they talked, the two of them began to cry. Tears fell down unsatisfactorily, and their faces were filled with tears. Their voices were blurred and could not be heard clearly. This was a manifestation of extreme fear.
"Get it clear, you two didn't offend me, you offended my fellow Taoist." Zhou Hao squatted down, lifted Xie Yi's chin with one hand, and Xie Qiang's chin with the other hand, and turned around at the same time. This direction, facing the beautiful figure in red under the bridge.
"Hua Huo, come here. The Xie family have something to say to you." Zhou Hao waved his hand, signaling Hua Huo to come to him.
Under the bridge, Hanabi nodded. Under the watch of everyone, she walked quickly towards Zhou Hao, followed closely by the turtle and green snake.
"She is the one you should apologize to." Zhou Hao patted Xie Yi and Xie Qiang's head, and then stood up. The two of them were so frightened that they thought their heads were about to be chopped off.
At this time, Hanabi stood in front of the two of them. The latter kowtowed like crazy: "Fairy, have mercy on me. Fairy, have mercy on me. Fairy, have mercy on me. It's my fault, it's my fault. I deserve death. I'm so obsessed with lust." , I am not a thing..."
Hua Huo's face was indifferent, but her eyes were quite unbearable, and she quickly said: "Stop knocking and get up. As long as you sincerely repent and stop teasing other fairies at will in the future."
"Yes, yes, we will definitely change our ways. We will definitely obey the fairy's instructions. We swear that if we do it again, we will be punished by heaven and earth!" Xie Yi and Xie Qiang stood up, nodded in unison, and swore with the fingers of their left hands.
Hua Huo hummed softly, then turned around and no longer looked at the two of them. She hugged Zhou Hao's waist like a little woman and said softly: "Zhou Hao, don't embarrass them, let them go."
"Okay, it's all up to you!" Zhou Hao said with a doting look on his face as he shaved the nose of the loli girl who was only as tall as his chest.
"My Taoist companion has spoken. I forgive you and thank your family. From now on, everyone will not offend the river. This is the end of tonight's matter. Let's go back to our homes and find our mothers!" Zhou Hao waved his hand towards Xie Feng and others with a smile. Full face.
"Thank you Taoist brother, thank you Fairy, I'll take my leave!" Xie Feng stood up and bowed to say goodbye. The two men and two women next to him also followed his example and followed his example.
Finally, the five members of the Xie family soared into the sky and entered the seven-treasure glazed carriage. The seven silver horses shining in the night snow immediately turned around without any need for the driver to direct them. With the sound of chirping, the seven-horse chariot departed on the moon, and the three hundred black-armored cavalry troops moved from the rear to the front, galloping to keep up with them, and disappeared into the vast night.
Seeing this, Zhou Hao Hua Huo also knew that he could not stay here, otherwise he would be watched, so the two of them rose into the sky and turned into two rainbow lights and rushed towards the eastern sky, which was completely opposite to the Xie family.
"What the hell, you two have left us two behind! Bahhhhhhhhhh... why are you leaving us behind? Then I'm not a thing anymore? Bahhhhhh... why am I not a thing? I am a thing... my nanny..." Oogway Yelled looking at the sky.
"Stop howling, just catch up." The green snake transformed into a blue light and flew into the sky.
"Wait for me, I can't fly fast, I'm afraid of heights!" The turtle did not turn into light, but slowly raised a dark cloud and flew into the sky swayingly, like a little kid who had just learned to ride a cloud. Monster-like.
"You're so stupid!" The green snake couldn't stand the "turtle speed" of the turtle, so she stretched her tail and pulled the turtle onto her.
Seeing that the excitement was gone, the onlookers dispersed one after another and went back to their homes. The originally blocked streets returned to normal again, as if all this had never happened.
But in fact, these excitements are indeed normal to everyone, and there are too many of them. There are duels almost every three days, a small fight every three days, a big fight every five days, and a master duel will be staged every half a month.
The final analysis is that this Shuntian City is too vast, with a vast land and many immortals, many immortals and many monks, so there will never be a shortage of fighting and martial arts competitions!
The moon gradually disappeared, and the end of the eastern horizon was still dark, as if it was the primordial chaos before the world opened up, ignorant and unknown.
Zhou Hao's fireworks no longer controlled the rainbow, but instead flew into the clouds and mist. The turtle and the green snake were also on the clouds. They had been chasing the former for more than ten minutes. When they finally learned that Zhou Hao was testing the speed of the two beasts, the turtle almost died. He immediately went berserk and tried to hit Zhou Hao with a full set of Overlord Fists.
"Zhou Hao, where are we going?" Hanabi asked, looking up at Zhou Hao. Her big eyes blinked, as energetic as a deer in the morning. At this moment, she was held tightly in Zhou Hao's arms. She enjoyed the warmth. , praying in my heart that it would be best never to leave.
Looking down at these red diamond-like eyes, Zhou Hao felt that his heart was about to melt. He had to admit that Hua Huo really looked like a combination of an elf and an angel. He was too beautiful and too delicate. So cute...
"Why are you always staring at me? Is there something on my face?" Hanabi's big eyes showed confusion.
"No, I was so cute by you that I was completely stunned." Zhou Hao chuckled and subconsciously touched his nose.
"I hate it~" Hanabi let out a coquettish cry. Instantly, Xia Fei's cheeks turned as red as a ripe peach, making people want to take a bite.
Zhou Hao swallowed his saliva, then quickly raised his head and turned around, not daring to look at Hua Huo anymore. He was afraid that he would do some animal behavior. After all, Hua Huo had only been incarnate for a hundred years, and was only equivalent to a little girl in her early ten years in the mortal world. No matter how urgent it is, we still have to wait until she reaches adulthood!
"Ahem... Let's go to the Mingyi Temple and participate in the freshman selection. The new practice will start from there!" Zhou Hao coughed twice.
"Mingyi Zhixiang? It's such a familiar name. I seem to have heard it somewhere." Oogway thought thoughtfully.
"Didn't the onlookers keep mentioning this Mingshihiro before? It seems that many young golden immortals are going to participate in the freshman selection competition held by Mingshihiro." Hua Huo said.
"No, what I mean is that I already have the memory of Mingyi Zhixiang in my mind, but I just can't remember it for the moment." Wugui shook his black head and said.
"Me too, I also have an impression of the four words "Mingyi Zhixiang", but I can't remember the memory of it." Green Snake said.
"Is there such a thing? Where did you two come from? Have you ever been to the Capital of the Sun and Moon?" Zhou Hao was surprised and confused at the same time.
"Forget it, I feel like my head is going to explode. There must be memories of me in this ambiguity. Maybe it's an unsolved love. That's why in my previous life, in order not to be disturbed by love, I swung my sword to cut off the love thread... …” The turtle developed rich associations.
"Stop, stop, your current wife is still here. If you don't want to be beaten, stop your random thoughts." Zhou Hao winked at Wugui.
"There are some turtles that just need to be taken care of!"
However, Zhou Hao's worries were not unfounded. The turtle still couldn't escape after being beaten. Green Snake's headache directly turned into her strength to cut and chop the turtle.
Soaring in the clouds and riding in the mist, all the way to the east!
Not long after, the sky gradually broke, and the light blue sky was inlaid with a few remaining stars. The earth was hazy, like a silver-gray veil. The dawn is like a sharp sword cutting through the veil, releasing the brilliant morning light, ushering in a new day.
"It's so beautiful. Isn't this the sunrise?" Hanabi looked at the front where the heavy clouds had dispersed and the sun was rising. The mountains and rivers turned from darkness to light in almost an instant. For a moment, she was mesmerized.
"Yes, the sun rises and everything revives. This scene is really beautiful!" Zhou Hao nodded. Under their feet, the huge city was vast and there was no end in sight, but the rising sun illuminated the entire city.
There are immortals sitting cross-legged on the green hills, eating the glow and eating their breath, there are immortal beasts sticking their heads out of the water to breathe the first breath of immortal energy in the morning, and there are also birds flying in the wind to chase the end of the sun where the sun falls...
"Zhou Hao, you are the first person to watch the sunrise with me." Hua Huo said shyly with her little head pressed against Zhou Hao's chest.
