"The fate of all living things in the world is doomed. You see them walking on the street, with visible threads on their shoulders, pulling these bodies towards the unknown road ahead."
"When you see this thread, you will understand the meaning of Yinghuo. We never change the fate of others, we just push them back."
"Long and leisurely determines the heaven and earth, chaos and separation determines the human heart."
The long embankment is covered with pink and green willows, and people are coming and going on the long streets on both sides. Sitting on the embankment is a leisurely old man, dressed in coarse linen clothes, with beard and hair as white as snow, and a face that looks kind after age. He was sitting on the shore holding a fishing rod, fishing and muttering something.
Rather than talking to himself, it was more like talking to the fish in the fish basket.
There was only one fish in the fish basket made of bamboo strips. It was a fat five-color koi carp with excellent color and appearance. Just now, a wealthy man passing by took a fancy to it and offered it hundreds of taels, but the old fishing man didn't even sell it.
"The Celestial Master's cultivation is so high that it's almost divine. We look up to it but can't reach it." The fat koi spit out a bunch of bubbles, then put its head out of the water and uttered human words.
If any of the maids around the concubine saw it, they might look familiar. This was the fish that was swimming in the palace pond that day.
"Holy?" The old fisherman sighed and shook his head, "It's far from perfect."
He continued to speak slowly, "Every great road in the world has its own door. The Luanli Avenue is strong in Tianyuan, and the corresponding price is that it is almost hopeless to reach Tongxuan."
In fact, everyone knows this truth.
If you advance to an avenue with a low threshold, it will be more difficult to advance; if you advance to an easier avenue, your combat power will be weaker... Taken together, all avenues in the world are actually fair.
"It has been rare for thousands of years for the world to be sacred. It is enough for the Heavenly Master to be invincible in the eighth realm." The fat koi fish quickly added another flattery.
As he spoke, a thin layer of clouds began to cover the sky.
"It seems like it's going to rain?" The old fisherman looked up at the sky, "The smell of these clouds... is a bit familiar."
"Maybe it's Yao Dengxian's method?" Fei Koi said.
The most famous power of Siyun Avenue is to call the wind and rain.
When the Golden Dragon was in charge of this way, if there were droughts or floods and the climate was unharmonious within the dynasty, the emperor could place an incense table and invite the Golden Dragon to improve the local climate.
It's just that the golden dragon is noble after all and cannot be called upon at will. It will only take action when there is a real disaster. It is inevitable that there will be some disturbances and waves in various places, and the people are not that comfortable yet.
For more than a hundred years, Siyun Avenue has been in Yao Deng's immortal palm. Whenever the weather in Kyushu is not good, he will secretly take action whenever the court orders it. Therefore, the Yu Dynasty has been going smoothly in these years, which is unprecedented in ancient times.
It's just that the court couldn't publicize his achievements, otherwise people everywhere wouldn't be stingy about building temples to pray for him.
When the drizzle fell, there were a little ripples in the fish basket.
"It is indeed him." Fei Koi said decisively: "The golden dragon must have gone away, so I cast a spell to find him. It seems that everything is going according to the plan. The Heavenly Master has a clever plan and he will definitely succeed tonight."
"The magical calculations are based on observing the sky. What we pay attention to is...observing people." The old fisherman said, "It's just that the human heart is sometimes more unpredictable than the heart of heaven. All we can do is do human things and obey the destiny. Yao Dengxian has already spread all over the eyes and ears, You should go back first."
As he spoke, he slowly stood up, lifted the fish basket, and poured it into the river.
People chatting in the tea shop on the shore couldn't help but be surprised. The old man let the koi go free without selling it for a hundred taels of silver?
Looking at the fat koi disappearing into the water, the old man muttered to himself one last time.
"It didn't succeed eighty years ago. I hope it can happen this time. We have no time to lay out the plan again."
…
"We still have a lot of time. You can take a rest for now. The palace officials will come to familiarize us with the dinner later." Wang Xuanling said.
The convoy of Golden Winged Pegasus entered the imperial city, taking several people from Shushan into the palace, and then dropped them off at a palace. Rolex had already led a group of palace people to greet him and brought everyone into the palace.
The Qinghong Banquet is a dinner, but they arrived in the morning, because they need to familiarize themselves with the environment in advance, buy clothes, explain the procedures, etc., which requires a lot of effort.
The Qinghong Banquet is a big event. Although there are only a few people eating Qinghong Meat, there are children of the royal family and civil and military officials accompanying them. It is considered a grand event that takes place every twelve years, so naturally it cannot be careless.
As for the few immortal disciples who won the first prize, as the protagonists of the Qinghong Banquet, they are the top priority and must be well prepared.
Looking at the waiting palace people, Chu Liang was also a little puzzled, "It's just a meal. Is it necessary to prepare it all day in advance?"
"Alas." A palace maid replied in a low voice: "I heard from the seniors that the original rules were not so complicated. It was just because of the Immortal Sect Conference sixty years ago. Some of the Immortal Sect disciples who won the championship at that time were too vulgar. , which greatly disturbed the Qinghong Banquet. Therefore, the disciples of the Immortal Sect from now on will have to come to the palace much earlier, so that you can first..."
"Don't talk too much." Rolex's voice came from behind. He glared at the palace maid and said, "Sixty years ago, don't talk nonsense. The Qinghong Banquet sixty years ago was very good. There was nothing vulgar about it." Senior, you remembered it wrong."
"Ah..." The palace maid seemed to suddenly remember something and nodded quickly, "I remember the time wrongly."
"Haha." Chu Liang smiled politely.
It is impossible to remember this time incorrectly.
If you search ten times higher or ten times lower, when it comes to the word "vulgar", it is difficult for anyone to surpass her.
Speaking of which, Chu Liang couldn't help but feel worried.
Master said she would come to the palace to have dinner, but she never came back. Could it be that the battle she had agreed on before had already begun?
Although the other party is Master's biological father, the fight is dangerous and unpredictable. Is there really no danger?
But even if he was worried, it was not something he could help with.
After thinking about it, he was taken to the room where he could rest temporarily. The rooms in this palace are all splendid. One bedroom is as spacious as half the palace. Even the frame of the screen is gold-plated, which is quite dazzling.
Chu Liang entered the room and opened the window. It started to rain lightly outside.
The rain was full of spiritual energy, and Chu Liang immediately guessed that this should be Yao Dengxian's method. It wasn't that he knew something about it, but that Little Golden Dragon had reminded him before.
Yao Dengxian is in charge of Siyun Avenue and is the best at making clouds and rain. The little golden dragon will lay down five golden scales outside Yudu City. When Yao Dengxian feels its aura, he will definitely go out to catch it himself.
Chu Liang could take advantage of this moment to go to Yin Dequan and steal the Golden Dragon Ball. Even if he was prepared, at most he would be the subordinates of Supervisor Huan Long, whose cultivation level would not exceed the peak of the sixth realm.
Chu Liang, who now possesses the power of the Blue Dragon Pearl, has great hope of succeeding.
After hearing this, Chu Liang was actually quite surprised. With the wisdom of the little golden dragon, he could actually come up with such a not outrageous plan.
He raised two questions. One was whether Xiao Jinlong could escape from Yao Dengxian's pursuit and delay him long enough.
The second is whether Chu Liang really has the ability to steal the Dragon Pearl after refining it.
The answer of the little golden dragon is that it only needs to use its own breath to attract Yao Dengxian. In the vast world outside, even if he is a powerful person in the eighth realm, it is not so easy to catch a real dragon that spans the universe.
As for Chu Liang, after he refines the Canglong Pearl and feels the power of the real dragon, he will naturally know it.
If Yao Dengxian senses the aura of the golden dragon, he will definitely cast a spell to detect it, and light rain will fall from the sky. At that time, the Little Golden Dragon Society will officially begin to mobilize the tiger away from the mountain, and it will also be the time for Chu Liang to take action.
Seeing the rain outside the window, Chu Liang immediately strode out of the door and walked into Jiang Yuebai's room in front of all the palace people outside.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Yuebai had just sat down and asked when Chu Liang came in.
"I have to do something." Chu Liang said, "If someone asks you later, you have to say that I have always been here."
Jiang Yuebai immediately understood that he was asking himself to prove his alibi.
"What are you going to do?" she asked.
This deep palace garden is full of dangers if you wander around at will, so she can't help but feel a little worried.
"We'll talk about it when we get back." Chu Liang was afraid of wasting time, so he put on the black robe with one hand and escaped, turning into a wisp of breeze and blowing out of the window.
This is one of the powers of the Blue Dragon Pearl.
As an ancient true dragon, Canglong once controlled Tianyuan, and the power it possessed was "wind". For Chu Liang, who has now completely refined the Canglong Pearl, transforming his body into wind couldn't be easier.
"Then you have to come back soon. If it's been a long time, you have been here with me. Tell me..." Before Jiang Yuebai finished speaking, Chu Liang's figure had disappeared, and she was the only one left muttering to the air: "What's it like?" talk."
