Guo Shi's father and Zhong Shan's group headed for Li Fire Saint Capital as quickly as they could.
Three days later, they finally arrived at Li Fire Saint Capital!
"The Holy King knows you're here and is waiting for you in front of Li Fire Saint Palace. Let's go there directly!" Guo Shi's father said.
"Okay!" Zhong Shan was very direct.
The two went straight to the center of Li Fire Saint Palace.
Although Li Fire Saint Capital had just returned to the Greater Thousand Realms, it had more fate than the Daikon State. Countless buildings were erected, and the grandest palace in the center was Li Fire Saint Palace.
When Zhong Shan flew closer, there was already a group of people waiting in front of the palace.
Ling 'er wasn't among them. Leading them was the Emperor of Dali Heavenly Dynasty, Nie Fanchen, who had once dominated the Lesser Thousand Realms!
Nie Fanchen wore a robe with nine dragons and a crown on his head. He stood with his hands behind his back as he waited. He was still as elegant as ever. He handled things calmly, as if he had everything in his heart.
Behind Nie Fanchen was a white-haired elder wearing a robe similar to Guo Shi's father's. He looked at Zhong Shan with bright eyes.
Many other officials were also looking at them curiously.
"Chung Holy King, welcome to Dali. Forgive me for not coming out to greet you!" Nie Fanchen smiled faintly.
"Zhong Shan is worried about Ling 'er's safety and has offended you. Zhong Shan has been rude!" Zhong Shan said as he approached.
"Holy King, Chung Holy King once said that his friend is a spell master and can take a look at Princess Qingqing's curse!" Guo Shi's father immediately said.
"Oh? Spell master? "Nie Fanchen was slightly surprised.
"Is she the Princess of the Heavenly Court of the Four Great Continents, Hao Meili?" The elder behind Nie Fanchen asked.
"You know her?" Guo Shi's father was puzzled.
Guo Shi's father was the Prime Minister of the Right of the Dali Dynasty, and this elder was the Prime Minister of the Left of the Dali Dynasty. It was obvious that he was of high status as well.
Nie Fanchen and the old man looked at each other. The old man said, "I just heard the news recently. I thought all the princesses of the four great continents had died in that battle. I didn't expect the eighth princess to still be alive. My apologies!"
"And this is?" Zhong Shan looked at Nie Fanchen.
"Jiang Shang greets the Chung Holy King of Daikon State!" The Left Prime Minister said.
"Jiang Shang?" Zhong Shan narrowed his eyes.
Jiang Shang, Jiang Ziya, who had participated in the Investiture of the Gods? He was the Prime Minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty. After the Investiture of the Gods, a large number of Divine Souls had been transferred to the Investiture of the Gods, which meant that they had entered the Heavenly Court of the Four Great Continents. However, Jiang Ziya did not. He had stayed in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Jiang Shang was still alive?
What kind of person was Jiang Shang? Needless to say, Zhong Shan already knew his capabilities.
"My apologies!" Zhong Shan said to Jiang Shang.
"Chung Holy King is too polite!" Jiang Shang immediately said.
"Holy King Nie, I think we should hurry and see Princess Qingqing. After all, she was cursed to save Ling'er. The longer we delay, the more dangerous it is!" Zhong Shan said.
"Alright, please!" Nie Fanchen was also very direct.
Jiang Shang waved his hand and the officials retreated. Only Guo Shi's father and Jiang Shang followed.
The group quickly arrived at a fiery red palace. Outside the palace, a large number of guards were waiting.
"Holy King!" The guards bowed respectfully.
Nie Fanchen ignored them and led the group into the palace.
Inside the palace, there was a screen blocking the view. After going around the screen, there were many palace maids busying themselves.
In the center was a pool about six meters wide. It emitted a fiery red light and was filled with red liquid. Inside was a beautiful woman dressed in white. Only her head was exposed. It was Nie Qingqing who had helped Zhong Shan many times!
Nie Qingqing lay there with her eyes closed. She looked extremely peaceful, but there was a pitch-black rune between her eyebrows that looked extremely evil.
Tian Ling'er sat to the side, her face extremely haggard. The palm-sized Vermilion Bird was also quietly standing on Tian Ling'er's shoulder. Zhong Shan and the others didn't notice anything when they entered the palace. They looked at Nie Qingqing with concern. Two lines of dried tears hung on her cheeks.
"Chirp, chirp, chirp …!"
When the Vermilion Bird saw Zhong Shan, it suddenly jumped and screamed.
"Little Red, I'm not in the mood right now. Stop messing around!" Tian Ling'er said sadly.
Seeing this scene, Zhong Shan felt a slight pain in his heart.
"Ling'er!" Zhong Shan called out.
Tian Ling'er quivered as if she couldn't believe it. She then slowly turned her head.
When she saw Zhong Shan, Tian Ling'er was slightly stunned. She then used her fist to rub her eyes twice in an extremely cute manner.
"Zhong Shan, you're finally here!"
Tian Ling'er immediately jumped up and pounced on Zhong Shan. When she was about to reach Zhong Shan's embrace, Tian Ling'er suddenly stopped.
When he stopped, everyone was slightly stunned. What happened to Tian Ling'er?
"Osmanthus cake!" Tian Ling'er said with a tone of seeking confirmation.
Zhong Shan smiled with gratification and said, "Die!"
This was the secret code that Zhong Shan had told her back then. Only the two of them knew the secret code. Osmanthus Cake. It was a sentence that Tian Ling 'er had always been worried about. It was a sentence that Zhong Shan had said at the risk of his life. Tian Ling'er would never forget it. As for the die, it was the first time Zhong Shan and Tian Ling'er went out. In the casino, Zhong Shan took revenge for Tian Ling'er.
This was what Zhong Shan had instructed before the opening of the sky. Although Zhong Shan had never seen a transformation technique like Nian Youyou's, he believed that it definitely existed in the Great Wide World. Just in case, he had designed this secret code.
"It's really you. You're finally here. You're finally here!"
Tian Ling'er threw herself into Zhong Shan's arms. Tears flowed out of her eyes again. It was a kind of happiness and relief.
"I'm here. I'm here to pick you up!" Zhong Shan caressed Tian Ling'er's back and comforted her.
At the side, Hao Meili's eyes flashed with a trace of envy as she watched. She took a few deep breaths to calm her mind.
"Zhong Shan, I'm going to take a look at Nie Qingqing!" Hao Meili said.
"Okay!" Zhong Shan nodded.
Tian Ling'er hid in Zhong Shan's arms and felt Zhong Shan's aura as if she never wanted to come out. However, when she heard about Nie Qingqing, she immediately left Zhong Shan's embrace. However, she refused to let go of Zhong Shan's hand.
"Big Sister can't move her body!" Tian Ling'er said somewhat anxiously.
"Meili is a Dark Incantation Master. She should take a look at Nie Qingqing and try her best to save her!" Zhong Shan said.
Hearing Zhong Shan's words, Tian Ling'er immediately cried out: "Meili, you must save Big Sister. As long as you save Big Sister, I will remember your kindness for the rest of my life."
"Big Sister Ling'er, rest assured. I will do my best!" Hao Meili immediately said.
"Okay!" Tian Ling'er nodded with a crying voice. Her eyes were full of expectation.
Hao Meili also walked forward.
"What happened at that time?" Zhong Shan asked.
"Wuu wuu, those three bad guys. They wanted to capture me and cast a curse on me. They also wanted to use some mirror to absorb my light. At that time, Big Sister suddenly stood in front of me. Otherwise, the one lying in the pool would be me!" Tian Ling'er sobbed.
"Nie Qingqing happened to be by your side?"
"Big Sister has been by my side all these years. Whenever I missed you or felt sad, it was Big Sister who comforted me. Every day, she would tell me many stories and give me good things. When I cried, she would hug me. It was the same that day. When I missed you, she told me that you were coming. At that time, those three bad guys suddenly flew out. Wuu wuu … "The more Tian Ling'er spoke, the sadder she became.
"She said that I was coming?" Zhong Shan was surprised.
Nie Fanchen opened his mouth: "This is what I told Qingqing. I will explain it to you later!"
Looking at Nie Fanchen, he finally nodded. His trip to the Western Continent was extremely secretive. How did Nie Fanchen know?
"Back then, you had Ling'er send me a letter, telling me to have Qingqing accompany Ling'er often so that she wouldn't be lonely. Qingqing knew that it was your request and did her best to protect Ling'er. Even this time, she sacrificed herself …!" Nie Fanchen didn't finish his words.
Zhong Shan nodded. He already understood Nie Fanchen's meaning.
At this time, Hao Meili had also finished examining Nie Qingqing. She turned to everyone and said, "Nie Qingqing's curse isn't fatal for a short period of time. Unless it's the caster of the curse, it will be very difficult to remove! I can wake her up once, but once I do, the caster will know and increase the curse from far away. Nie Qingqing will still be unconscious, and it will be difficult for her to wake up again! "
"Difficult? Can it be removed? "Ling'er anxiously asked.
"I don't know, but to remove it, we have to wake her up. I have to ask her about the situation! I don't have full confidence! "Hao Meili said.
"Then wake her up!" Nie Fanchen said.
Everyone nodded.
Hao Meili nodded. She stretched out her hand and a piece of paper appeared at her fingertips. She chanted an incantation that no one could understand. The incantation turned into symbols that came out of Hao Meili's mouth and imprinted on the paper. The paper emitted a large amount of black light.
It pressed towards Nie Qingqing's forehead.
Buzz!
The paper shot into the symbol on Nie Qingqing's forehead.
Whoosh!
Nie Qingqing's eyes opened strangely. The sudden opening made everyone slightly surprised.
"Nie Qingqing, what color is the light you see now? Red, green, or yellow? "Hao Meili immediately asked.
Nie Qingqing suddenly opened her eyes. She seemed to have not regained her consciousness and instinctively said, "Red!"
Red? Hao Meili's pupils shrank, and her face became somewhat unsightly. She then gently retreated.
At this time, Nie Qingqing's consciousness also slowly woke up.
"Sister!" Ling'er cried as she ran over and grabbed Nie Qingqing's hand.
Seeing Ling'er, Nie Qingqing actually revealed a trace of a warm smile.
"Ling'er, it's good that you're fine!" Nie Qingqing said.
"I'm fine!" Ling'er cried.
At this time, Nie Qingqing looked at everyone's faces. When she saw Zhong Shan, her eyes suddenly stopped.
"Zhong Shan!" Nie Qingqing shouted.
Zhong Shan walked closer and looked at Nie Qingqing gratefully.
"Ling'er, I'll help you look after her. No one can bully her, no one can hurt her!"
While speaking, Nie Qingqing's eyes were filled with tenderness.
"I know, I saw it!" Zhong Shan nodded, and his gaze became somewhat complicated.
Seeing Zhong Shan's expression, Nie Qingqing weakly smiled, and then her body trembled and she closed her eyes again.
"Sister, sister, wake up!" Ling'er cried as she grabbed Nie Qingqing's hand.
"That incantation master is casting again. Don't worry, sister Ling'er, Nie Qingqing's life is not in danger for the time being!" Hao Meili said.
Zhong Shan pulled Ling'er, and only then did Ling'er let go of Nie Qingqing's hand while crying.
"Can the curse be broken?" Zhong Shan asked Hao Meili.
Ling'er also looked pitifully at Hao Meili. Everyone else also looked at Hao Meili.
Hao Meili thought for a moment and said, "This is the 'Red Fiend Mind Confusion Curse'. It's extremely vicious. The incantation master wants to control Ling'er, so he connected the curse to his own fate. If you want to break it, the incantation master must be willing to sacrifice half his lifespan! "
"Red Fiend Mind Confusion Curse? Half his lifespan? How could he be willing? "Guo Shi's father shook his head.
PS: In Immortal, there are very few useless side characters. Almost every character's appearance has a purpose. In the first few chapters, a few unknown characters appeared. They weren't for Zhong Shan to show off, but to pave the way for the later chapters. They had to appear. The climax of Great Zhou's rise is about to begin. Begging for monthly votes!
