Chong Yuan walked gently into the temple and looked at the exquisite soft sedan chair.
Whether it was because of the fire in the ruined temple or the person in the sedan, there was a deep warmth on the face of the supremely powerful leader of the Demon Cult.
Fire can warm a person's body, but it cannot warm a person's heart.
But at this time, Chong Yuan's eyes were warm, and so was his heart.
This is of course because of the person in his eyes, so he is so gentle.
The man was sitting in the sedan chair.
A woman. No, a girl to be exact.
This is a very special girl because the first impression she gives people is that she is special.
She is special not because of her appearance, but because she is a person between a girl and a woman.
Girls are innocent and pure, and their bodies and looks will grow and change, while women's looks and bodies are mature enough and have unique feminine charm and charm. But the man in the sedan had two different characteristics at the same time.
Although this is a bit unreasonable, this is what makes her special.
She was sitting in a sedan chair, wearing a plain long dress without any embellishment, with eyebrow-length bangs on her full forehead, and her long black hair was braided into two long braids and hung casually on her chest. She looks to be only thirteen or fourteen years old, with a round face that has not completely lost its childishness. Her facial features are not extremely beautiful. The only outstanding thing about her appearance is her two eyebrows under her long eyelashes. Only eyes. Her eyes were particularly clear, like a lake filled with impurities that you could see to the bottom at a glance, and as crystal clear as two gems.
Her figure is petite and exquisite. Like her age, she is not yet completely mature. But the strange thing is that her eyebrows and expressions have the charm of an adult woman, as if she is in the body of a fourteen-year-old girl. , and a twenty-four-year-old woman lived there.
And these strange signs make this girl extra special.
At this moment, she was sitting quietly in the sedan chair, her two tender white and slender catkins gently stroking a silver bell on a bracelet. Her whole person looked indescribably clear and pure. When people see her, they can't help but think of clear lake water and warm sunshine...
Seeing Chong Yuan come in, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and then she smiled.
When she smiled, two deep dimples appeared on the girl's crystal clear cheeks.
Her smile and her dimples gave her an indescribable and unique beauty.
The smile in Chong Yuan's eyes was like seeing the sunshine in spring, warm and gentle.
Chong Yuan also smiled, then he walked to the fire, sat on a dusty stone, and sat in front of the girl.
At this moment, he was not the leader of the demon sect, nor was he a top master with heretical cultivation. It seemed that only in front of this girl would he let go of his arrogant demeanor, unpredictable thoughts, and the compelling evil intention all over his body. He seemed to have changed into a different person, becoming an ordinary person with emotions in his eyes full of tenderness and love.
But he is not really an ordinary person, and that girl is certainly not an ordinary person either.
Chong Yuan took out an oil paper bag from his arms, handed it to the girl with a smile, and said softly: "Try it."
The girl stopped stroking the silver bell, leaned forward slightly with her petite body, stretched out her hand and took the oil paper bag.
The girl gently opened the paper package, and inside were six neatly stacked pastries.
She brought the pastry to her small nose, sniffed it, suddenly smiled and said, "It smells so good, it seems to smell like some kind of flower."
Her voice still has a childish voice, but the timbre has the crispness of an adult woman.
Chong Yuan still kept smiling, but deep in his eyes, there was a hint of sadness that was not easy to detect.
"I know you always like to eat sweet things." Chong Yuan said softly: "This thing is called osmanthus cake in the Central Plains. It is said to be made from the petals of osmanthus. It is delicious, so I will bring you a taste. taste."
There was a glimmer of crystal light in the girl's clear eyes. She picked up a piece of pastry and put it into her mouth, chewing it slowly.
The sweetness of the pastry and the fragrance of osmanthus gradually spread in the mouth, and the girl couldn't help but squint her eyes.
It was a taste she had never tasted before.
"What a strange taste." She slowly swallowed the cake in her mouth and said, "There has never been anything like this in our hometown."
"I heard that this kind of food needs to be made with fresh osmanthus petals to be the most delicious. It's not the time for the osmanthus to bloom yet, so the taste is not the best yet." Chongyuan smiled and said, "When we get to the Central Plains, I will definitely make it for you. Eat the most authentic sweet-scented osmanthus cake. The Central Plains is vast and rich in resources, and there are many good things. You can eat whatever you want."
The girl smiled and said: "I heard that the Central Plains is the richest and most interesting place in the world, and there are many delicious things. Are the people in the Central Plains also very interesting?"
She seemed to be full of deep curiosity and expectation for this foreign land she was in now.
Chong Yuan said gently: "Xiaoying, it won't be long before my eldest brother will take you to see the entire Central Plains and eat all the delicious food in the Central Plains."
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Chong Yuan ignored the girl's last question. In his heart, there are indeed some "very interesting" people in the Central Plains, such as the one he met today.
"I know that eldest brother is the best to me." The girl raised her thin eyebrows slightly, and the dimples on her cheeks were mesmerizing.
She looked happy.
But not long after, the girl suddenly put down the pastry in her hand, and there was a hint of gloom between her brows. She raised her head and looked at Chong Yuan seriously, and asked: "Brother, when we come to the Central Plains this time, will we A lot of people died?"
Chong Yuan's face changed slightly, and he fell silent, with some complicated emotions in his eyes. After a long time, he said softly: "You don't need to worry about these things, and it's not something you should care about."
He paused and looked at the girl in front of him, his tone still extremely gentle, "You have to be well, this is the most important thing."
"I'm fine, I'm fine too." The girl's clear eyes flashed and she said, "But I'm very worried about brother, because I know the reason why we traveled thousands of miles to come to the Central Plains."
There was deep solemnity in her young yet clear voice.
Chong Yuan smiled and said, "As long as I'm here, you don't have to worry about anything."
His eyes moved to the bracelet on the girl's snow-white wrist.
There is a small silver bell on the bracelet.
"Xiaoying, were you asleep just now?" Chongyuan suddenly asked softly.
The girl nodded slightly and said, "It's so quiet here, I couldn't help but fall asleep."
"I'm sorry, brother, I shouldn't have let you stay here." Chong Yuan said with a self-blame tone: "You must have been waiting for me for a long time."
The girl shook her head and said, "As long as I see that brother is safe, everything will be fine no matter how long it takes." She suddenly remembered something, her eyes slightly lowered, and said, "It's safe here, brother, don't worry."
"Xiaoying, your vigilance is not good enough." Chongyuan suddenly sighed and said with a somewhat serious tone: "When I came in, the evil guards had already issued a warning, but you didn't respond. Although there are evil guards around, no one can harm you easily, but the habit of being lax on vigilance is very bad."
He looked at the girl with burning eyes and added: "This is what I'm worried about."
The girl said softly, then nodded slightly and said, "I understand."
She subconsciously touched the silver bell.
Chong Yuan breathed out softly and said: "It took me more than ten years to create four evil soldiers. The power they have now is equivalent to the four strongest top masters in the world, regardless of offense or attack." Defense is the most perfect weapon. Now that they are more integrated with your efforts, only you can drive them, and they only recognize you as their master. You just need to stay vigilant and become proficient in how to drive them, then No one in this world can hurt you easily. And it is precisely because of this that I can safely place you in this barren mountain."
The girl raised her head and looked at Chong Yuan, sighing softly: "Brother, I understand your intentions. It was my negligence that made you worry. I will remember your words."
Chong Yuan suddenly gave a bitter smile, and then a look of sadness and anger appeared on his face. He murmured, "If it weren't for me, you could walk and practice martial arts, then I wouldn't need to worry about your safety. …”
He paused for a moment, and the look of sadness on his face suddenly became heavy. He gritted his teeth and sternly said: "If it weren't for me, Xiaoying... would have grown up..."
"Brother!"
Chong Ying, who has the appearance and body of a girl, but the temperament and heart of an adult woman. When she heard her elder brother's almost explosive expression and words, she suddenly raised her head and shouted urgently, interrupting Chong Yuan's words.
She was instantly excited, her round face turned pale, and her tone became sharp.
Chong Yuan, the arrogant leader of the Demon Cult, could not help but have tears in his eyes at this moment.
He looked at the girl in front of him with tears in his eyes, and more regret, sadness and anger. At this moment, his expression was extremely complicated.
"Brother, haven't I told you a long time ago that we won't mention the past anymore." Chongying restrained his excitement and said softly: "I also said that I will never blame you. Because you are my only relative in this world, and my eldest brother has never thought of hurting me, all of this is just fate."
While speaking, the girl lowered her eyes and looked at her legs hidden in the hem of her skirt.
Those legs had lost feeling for many years, and since then she could only sit and watch the world. What's even more frightening is that in addition to being paralyzed, there are even more unacceptable things happening in her body.
And this incident was the most painful, regretful and sad thing in Chong Yuan's life, and it was also something that he had to spend his whole life to redeem.
"Fate?" Chong Yuan suddenly laughed coldly. He instantly regained the aura of the devil's sect king who was decisive and ruthless, and said in a deep voice: "I never believe in fate. If all this belongs to me, Chong Yuan, I should bear the fate, so why should you suffer for me? I can even create evil soldiers, so I can definitely restore Xiaoying's body. At that time, I want to see you grow up Then I will watch you get married and have children..."
His demeanor was almost paranoid and arrogant, but he was definitely not joking.
Chongying suddenly covered her mouth and smiled, and said softly: "I have never doubted my brother's ability. But if I really get better, but find that I have turned into an ugly monster, then brother, don't regret it."
Chong Yuan was slightly startled, then slowly regained his gentle expression, and said with a smile: "My Xiaoying has been a beauty since she was a child, so when she grows up, she will naturally be a beautiful woman..." He suddenly choked in the middle of the sentence, as if he was He accidentally touched his own reverse scale.
Then his face couldn't help but darken again.
Chongying didn't speak. She just picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and put it in her mouth, tasting and chewing it gently.
Chong Yuan's breathing became a little heavy, and his eyes were sharp.
"Brother, you are here again." Chongying swallowed the cake and said with a smile: "As long as brother thinks I am beautiful, then I will be the most beautiful woman in the world."
Chong Yuan looked at her and said categorically: "Don't worry, as long as you let me get those two things, you will be able to return to normal. This matter is more important than anything else. I have been planning for many years just for that day .”
Chongying's childish face suddenly became expressionless, and she said in a serious tone that did not suit her age: "Eldest brother, try to say these words as little as possible in the future, let alone the ears of the leader. Now, as the Holy Cult King, eldest brother The leader has a heavy responsibility. And the leader is suspicious by nature. If she knows that the elder brother has another purpose for this trip, I am afraid it will make her unhappy. "
Chong Yuan smiled calmly and said, "Don't worry, Xiaoying, big brother has his own sense of proportion."
Chongying frowned slightly and said: "In the past ten years, eldest brother has tried many methods to restore me, but he has never achieved anything. Why has he suddenly become so confident now that he has come to the Central Plains? Brother Who are the two things I just mentioned, and do they really have such magical effects?"
Hearing the words, Chong Yuan did not answer immediately. He lowered his head slightly and pondered for a moment before slowly saying: "You don't understand these things even if I tell you, because there are too many things in this world that you don't know and can't imagine. But I can tell you clearly that those two things have functions and powers that are unimaginable to ordinary people. As long as you get them, it will be easy to restore your body. I know where one of them is, but it will take some time and methods to get it. And The other thing is in the Central Plains, it has been sealed somewhere, and finding it is also the primary purpose of our trip."
Seeing Chong Ying's confused expression, he smiled again and said, "Big brother has his own plans for these things. As long as Xiao Ying waits patiently, it won't take long for you to know that I'm not lying to you."
Chongying shook his head slightly and said: "I'm not doubting what my elder brother said, I'm just worried. Although I don't pay attention to the affairs of the Holy Religion, but now that the leader has devoted all the power of the Holy Religion to come to the Central Plains, I also know that the conspiracy is not trivial. . If the eldest brother differs from the leader's plan because of my affairs, then according to the leader's character, no matter how much she relies on you, she will definitely have a problem with you. And because I know that this action is of great importance, I will I’m even more worried about my eldest brother’s safety. Everything he gets now is hard-earned. You must not be affected because of me, otherwise your years of hard work will be in vain.”
Chong Yuan said solemnly: "In my heart, nothing is as important as Xiaoying. My current status as one person below ten thousand people is all because of Xiaoying's sacrifice. If I can't restore you, Then all my efforts over the years will be truly in vain.”
Chongying smiled, the clear water in her eyes wavering, and she said softly: "Let everything take its course, brother, you should understand what I mean."
"Don't worry, Xiaoying, big brother knows what to do." Chong Yuan nodded: "Big brother will never give up any opportunity unless I die."
"Brother, promise me you will never mention that word again." Chongying's expression suddenly changed, her voice was soft but her tone was heavy, and she said: "Otherwise, you will really let me down."
Chong Yuan couldn't help but stayed for a moment, he understood what the girl meant.
Then he nodded slowly.
"Brother, when we come to the Central Plains this time, will many people die and encounter many dangers?" Chongying was silent for a while, and then suddenly said: "If there is no danger, how can big brother take those four evil bodies?" Bingwei stays with me to protect me? Does this mean that my eldest brother may leave me at any time in the future? "
This time, Chong Yuan did not deliberately avoid the girl's question. He nodded and said: "This time the leader came to the Central Plains in large numbers to avenge the defeat by the Central Plains martial arts, so of course many people will die. I know Xiaoying is kind-hearted and does not want to see killings, but some things are not what you imagined. It's so simple. As for the danger, Xiaoying, don't worry. With my current cultivation level, there are only a handful of people who can hurt me, but I will protect myself very well. This time is very important, and many things need me. I will do it myself, so I will be separated from you often. Without the evil guards to protect you, I cannot do anything with confidence."
Chongying pondered for a while and said: "Although I usually don't care about the affairs within the church, I do know some things. Before setting off, I heard that many people in the Presbyterian Church were opposed to the leader leading the crowd. Those in the Central Plains, if it weren't for the fear of Big Brother, I'm afraid they would stop him with force. So what I'm worried about is not that Big Brother's cultivation is not high enough, but that this is the Central Plains after all, and there are too many surprises. Besides, people from the Presbyterian Church may I won’t just sit back and watch..."
She looks like a teenage girl, but her mind is as delicate and sophisticated as an adult's.
Chong Yuan suddenly smiled coldly and said with disdain: "I have known these things for a long time. A bunch of old guys can only mutter with their mouths. Besides, what other useful things can they do? Now The power of the Holy Religion has already brought out nine out of ten cases, and they alone cannot make any trouble."
"Now the goal of the Holy Tradition is the entire Central Plains. No one can stop the general trend."
Chong Yuan suddenly turned cold and said in a deep voice: "Whoever dares to block my way will die!"
Chongying looked at her elder brother's expression and couldn't help but sigh secretly in her heart. Then she said softly: "I know that eldest brother has his own way of doing things, but if you can try not to kill people, it's better not to kill people."
Chongyuan suddenly smiled and said: "Xiaoying, I said that many things can't be done whatever we want. I know you don't like to see others die, so I let you separate from me. After all, this journey begins , it’s already full of blood.”
Chongying wanted to say more, but Chongyuan continued: "Because some grievances need to be paid with blood."
The girl choked on the words. She is a member of the Demon Cult, so she naturally knows some of the past history.
The brother and sister were silent for a while, then Chongying changed the subject and asked: "Brother, does the leader know that you are here?"
Chong Yuan shook his head and said: "The leader has led the crowd to march into the Central Plains. She can't wait to meet some old acquaintances."
Chongying said "oh" and asked again: "What about sister Shou Zhen?"
Hearing this, a strange smile suddenly appeared on Chong Yuan's face. He turned his head slightly, his eyes drifted to the outside of the temple door, and said with a half-smile, "She is probably going to attend a feast now."
Chongying didn't understand and looked out the door in confusion.
Chong Yuan withdrew his gaze, looked at the fire, and said calmly: "Back then, she helped me a lot for the evil soldiers. Now that she has such an opportunity, of course she wants to try her work to see if it can work. How much is it?"
