The Mysterious Underworld Cave
Pi Yangqiu had already received the order and left Li Qingshan alone, lying on the surface of the water with his limbs spread out.
From this angle, the Mysterious Underworld Cave looked like a deep well. The mouth of the well was a round grey sky that hung high above the darkness and fell into his pitch-black eyes. The drizzle rippled around his ears and his thick black hair spread out and floated with the waves.
He had already become a god and all the god statues had his divinity residing in them. He had seen everything that happened outside Wanxiang City with his own eyes and could not calm down for a long time.
He had never felt that he had done anyone any favors and had never expected such a return. Just as he had never expected such a statue to stand outside Wanxiang City.
So if it was destroyed, then so be it! What did it matter? Even though his former comrades had drawn their blades against him, he did not feel surprised or angry. He just could not help but sigh a little.
After all, it was the trend of the times and the will of the heavens could not be disobeyed … To put it bluntly, he had never asked others to be like "Li Qingshan".
"You are too arrogant!" He suddenly laughed. It was filled with self-mockery but also joy. "Why can't others be like Li Qingshan? What's so great about Li Qingshan!"
A surge of hot blood surged in his chest like the surging magma under the ground. It was a heat that he had not felt for a long time. He seemed to have been floating on the black water for too long and had heard enough of the laments and pleas of the people of the Demon Territory.
So he sat up and said softly, "Comrades, fight alongside me again!"
His voice came from his falling black hair and only echoed in the cave. However, the will of a god would definitely reach the Asura Path and summon his soldiers again.
How can it be said that I have no clothes, I share the same robe as my son. How can it be said that I have no clothes, I share the same hatred as my son.
"I will immediately avenge you!"
Li Qingshan's figure disappeared from the Mysterious Underworld Cave. Those who exerted power and pressure on them would definitely feel an even greater power and pressure. That would be the fury of a god.
… …
The Hundred Herb Garden
The sun rose and set. The date set by Dai Mengfan was approaching bit by bit. Wan Jianfeng, who was standing outside the garden, was ready to charge into the garden at any time to capture and kill Li Fengyuan, or "her".
It was dusk, the sun had not set, and the crescent moon had just risen.
The Hundred Herb Garden fell into an unprecedented silence. The busy figures of the disciples were gone, leaving only a beautiful figure pacing back and forth in the garden.
Only the plants were still thriving, ignorant of the joys and sorrows of the human world.
Even though Ruan Yaozhu has already made up her mind, she can't help but feel her heartstrings tighten little by little, gradually feeling the chill of the evening wind.
This would be her last time in the Herb Garden. She was not afraid of death like Dai Mengfan, but perhaps it was only at the moment of parting that she felt that time was short and that a thousand years were fleeting.
She simply let go of all distracting thoughts and focused on taking care of these plants.
The nine-colored deer silently accompanied her, its gentle and moist eyes full of pity. This price was too heavy for her, and everything was for "that man".
The nine-colored deer raised its head and looked at the hill in the distance. Li Fengyuan was sitting cross-legged under the bodhi tree with a resolute expression, as if he was an eminent monk who was ready to sacrifice himself for his cause and had completely disregarded life and death.
"Sigh, you sure can let it go!"
The nine-colored deer no longer blamed "that man", but it couldn't help but think back to that autumn night many years ago when it met "that man" by chance. It felt that "every drink and every peck was predestined".
In Whitestag, he casually brought a group of beggars to drink with flowers and exchanged a peach tree for a full meal for the beggars. But in the dead of night, he lamented the death of the peach tree.
Perhaps it was at that moment that he touched Ruan Yaozhu's heartstrings. That was why she made an exception during the entrance examination and gambled on whether he was good or evil.
That time, she won the bet and even made a small profit. But this time, the bet was on herself, and whether she won or lost, it was meaningless to her.
The crime of betraying the sect meant certain death.
Even a gambler like Le Tian would never take part in a gamble that was guaranteed to lose, so she could not be regarded as a true gambler at the end of the day. She was just like many years ago, stubbornly believing in "that man".
She believed that "that man" would always be benevolent despite being violent and resolute. He would never associate himself with demonfolk.
Suddenly, Li Fengyuan opened his eyes under the bodhi tree and waved his hand into the distance.
The nine-colored deer gazed in that direction and could not help but widen its eyes. It rubbed its horn against Ruan Yaozhu in a hurry and called out, "Blockhead, blockhead!"
"What's wrong?"
Ruan Yaozhu was currently buried in the flowers and trees. She could not help but raise her head and become stunned too.
Under the bright, red light of the setting sun, a tall, large figure strode over.
He arrived before her in just a few steps. With a familiar smile on his face, he called out "Yaozhu" before spreading his arms and embracing her firmly.
Everything had happened too suddenly. She was unable to respond at all, but she felt her heartstrings ease up as if a tremendous burden had been lifted from her shoulders. She no longer had the slightest bit of strength left in her body, but her eyes reddened.
The nine-colored deer could no longer care about separating them. It only felt like they had been rescued from the jaws of death. They all believed without reason that as long as this man appeared, all of their problems would be resolved.
The nine-colored deer called out, "Li Qingshan, you … you've finally returned! Did you know that the Spirit Sovereign of Sea has already announced that you've betrayed the Demon domain? In order to protect your unlucky son, Yaozhu sealed off the entire Hundred Herb Garden. We almost died because of you! "
Li Qingshan smiled without saying anything, but his expression was the same as usual. His bearing was peaceful, without the slightest hint of demon qi on him. Even the benevolent and benevolent Qilin was nothing more than this. When he looked at Ruan Yaozhu, his gaze was filled with tenderness.
"I knew you wouldn't …" Ruan Yaozhu murmured, but her face reddened again. She gently tried to break free from Li Qingshan's embrace.
But Li Qingshan hugged her even tighter. A trace of regret flashed in his eyes. He shouldn't have let her suffer any more grievances.
Li Fengyuan sighed in his heart. He stood up and carefully examined Li Qingshan.
Li Qingshan seemed to sense something. He also turned his head and looked at Li Fengyuan up and down.
The father and son seemed like they didn't know each other at this moment, but it also seemed like they were confirming something. In the time since they separated, they had undergone earth-shattering changes.
The nine-colored deer said, "Can you two stop looking at each other! Wan Jianfeng is about to kill his way in! "
"Junior Martial Brother Wan! Heh, he's quite gutsy. He dares to bully our Yaozhu! "
"Senior Martial Brother Wan is just following orders. Don't blame him," Ruan Yaozhu said softly. She knew that Li Qingshan's murderous nature was extremely heavy. She was afraid that he would hurt Wan Jianfeng and ruin their relationship.
"Following Dai Mengfan's orders?"
"Senior Martial Sister Dai had no choice. The Spirit Sovereign insisted that she be the eldest senior martial sister."
"In that case, it's all that old tortoise's fault!"
"The Spirit Sovereign is only following the sect's laws. Sigh, he must have gone senile. That's why he made the wrong divination, thinking that you've fallen into the Demon domain. He just needs to resolve the misunderstanding. "
"Oh you! It's still the same. " Li Qingshan couldn't help but shake his head. He looked in the direction of the Myriad Phenomenon Sect. "I'll go find Spirit Sovereign of Sea and explain it clearly!"
