The storm is about to come, and the building is full of wind. As the days pass, the uneasy atmosphere becomes more and more intense. Some unknown changes are brewing and fermenting, sweeping inside and outside the Demon Suppression Tower. No one is immune.
On the third day, four sword lights appeared in the sky and landed straight on the Sun Viewing Cliff. Wei Shiqi came forward to greet him. He only recognized Li Hui, his uncle and uncle, and heard them call each other. The other three were named Zheng and Zheng. Liu, whose surname is Guo, is the same generation as Li Hui.
Seeing Yue Shuo's absence, Li Hui was quite disappointed. He frowned and paced back and forth in front of the thatched cottage, restless, as if he had encountered a difficult problem.
"Where has Mr. Yue's nephew gone? When will he come back?" He was so sick that he rushed to the doctor, chasing Wei Shiqi and asking endless questions.
Wei Shiqi could only smile bitterly in return. How could he tell Yue Shuo's whereabouts clearly?
While he was hesitating, a vague singing voice suddenly came from the distance. The melody was euphemistic and the words were clear and clear, as if it was in my ears, but I couldn't understand a word of it.
Wei Shiqi's heart moved. He had heard it many years ago in Chixia Valley. Along with the singing, he seemed to see a pair of snow-white feet immersed in the stream, with graceful lines, no flaws, and as clean as a clear spring in the mountains in early autumn.
On the mountain road, there is a small figure. She is wrapped in green clothes, her hair is combed into double buns, her skin is as bright as snow, and her features are like picturesque. If it's not Ruan Jing, who is it?
She stopped, saluted the four elders from afar, and said: "I have met all the masters. My father... is waiting for you at Wentang Valley. Please move on, master."
Wei Shiqi was slightly startled, and thought to himself, his master is so proud that he sent his daughter to convey a message, but instead of coming in person, he asked all the masters to go see him. I don't know whether he is being arrogant or arrogant.
The Demon Suppressing Tower is connected to Ruan Qing, the Sky Fox. Yue Shuo is just a reason. It doesn't matter whether he comes or not. Li Hui and others all know that Ruan Qing has always disliked seeing the Kunlun sword cultivator. Ruan Jing said this, but he actually left a few Save face. Li Hui was the most experienced person. He smiled, gently lifted it, and invited Zheng, Liu, and Guo to go to Wentang Valley together to ask for a countermeasure.
The four sword lights fled, but Ruan Jing stayed. Wei Shiqi smiled and said: "Senior Sister Ruan, you are safe and well!"
Ruan Jing moved forward, walked to Wei Shiqi, looked up at him, and said with a smile: "We meet again, we said goodbye in Chixia Valley, and it has been a hundred years in the blink of an eye."
"century?"
Ruan Jing sighed: "One day in the mountains, a thousand years have passed in the world. You were outside the Demon Suppression Tower and spent several years in a hurry. I was in the tower and didn't know the passage of time. Hundreds of years have passed."
"Your injuries-"
"Chu Tianyou's Dinghai Pearl is so powerful. My physical body is almost collapsed. It is maintained by the sea of vitality. There is no hope of recovery. I can only survive in this demon-suppressing tower."
Wei Shiqi was filled with confusion. Ever since he entered the Field of Illusion, everything that had happened was too bizarre. The Demon Suppression Tower contained countless secrets. His cheap master and his cheap master wife were obviously the key to it all.
"You must have a lot to ask, right?" Ruan Jing squatted on her heels, reached out and picked a blade of grass, held it between her fingers and played with it for a while, watching blankly as it melted into the void.
Wei Shiqi looked at her face intently. At first glance, she looked as fair as ever, but between her eyebrows, there was a mass of black energy, like a very light cloud, looming.
"Did you see it?"
"Well, there's nothing you can do about it?"
"I haven't seen her since she entered the Demon Suppression Tower. We have never met here."
"Why?"
"Do you know how the bloodline of the Sky Demon is passed down?" Ruan Jing asked back.
Wei Shiqi guessed: "Marriage, childbirth?"
"If it were so simple, the sky demon wouldn't have only one or two people in each generation... The more powerful the bloodline, the harder it is to spread. The sky demon is the strongest of the demon clan, and the offspring born from marriage cannot inherit it. The bloodline is just an ordinary demon clan at best. If the heavenly demon wants to inherit the bloodline, he can only condense the 'blood fetus' in the body, inject a wisp of the residual soul, and place it in the body of others. When the bloodline awakens for the first time, the residual soul can be seized. She, awakened for the second time, recast her body, and awakened for the third time, devouring her parents. Only when you reach this point can you truly inherit the bloodline."
"It's just that as a result of your bloodline awakening, you will no longer be you."
"Exactly. You and I are both human and demon hybrids, with the blood of the sky demon in our bodies. When the bloodline first awakened, due to some reasons, the remnant soul failed to seize the body, and the blood fetus remained. We can cultivate the power of the sky demon clan. Kung Fu, but without that ray of remnant soul, we will never be able to recast our body, let alone inherit our bloodline... The human body is our true body."
Wei Shiqi looked at the back of his left hand and said, "For some reason... is it the Penglai bag?"
Ruan Jing laughed, "Penglai Bag... Isn't there a Penglai Palace in the Immortal Capital of Changying Temple? I'm afraid you might get suspicious and make random nonsense... That thing is a magic weapon made by the Kunlun Patriarch using the Ba Snake Stomach Bag. On the day, it was torn apart and exploded into pieces. It was originally called a demon refining bag, which can swallow and refine souls. These fragments of the magic weapon saved my life and yours."
Wei Shiqi let out a long sigh. No wonder he always felt that the "Penglai Bag" was connected with his flesh and blood, and it turned out to be this reason.
"My mother entered the Demon Suppressing Tower, and her soul was separated from her body. It is no longer possible to condense the 'blood fetus'. Because of me, the bloodline of Shouqiong Tianhu was cut off. She didn't want to see me, for fear that she wouldn't be able to control herself. , took action to harm me. I was her daughter, but I killed the daughter she wanted. She hated me but couldn’t let me go."
That day in the Field of Illusion, Ruan Qing said that she had not seen Ah Ruan for a long time. She wanted to know about her daughter, but she never wanted to see her. The words that came out of her lips, What complex emotions it contains!
"If the soul and body are separated, can they no longer become one?"
Ruan Jing said leisurely: "You and I can do it, but she can't. This is a very long story. If you want to hear it, I will tell you."
"Appreciate further details."
