"Hahaha …" Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive couldn't help but be overjoyed. He laughed and said, "I knew it! How could this guy be poor? He is a celestial official of the Celestial Master Residence! It doesn't suit his status if he doesn't carry some life-saving items with him! "
Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive took a quick look at the Hidden Void Bracelet. Each of the seven layers of space was placed neatly. It seemed that Xiao Hua was also a meticulous person. He placed the money, immortal herbs, elixirs, celestial weapons, Ink Celestial Eyes, and so on neatly. Xiao Hua simply didn't mess it up. However, towards the end, Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive took out three items from the bottom two layers. On the second layer, there was a golden beast egg and a book page. The book page was stained with rust and looked just like Jing Sheng's. Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive stretched out his finger and Jing Sheng's blood-stained metal piece flew over. Sure enough, when the two items were placed together, they produced silk-like bloodstains and stuck together.
"Strange, what is this?" Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive frowned slightly. His eyes lit up again. What surprised Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive was that the blood mist inside the metal piece was surging and he couldn't see the situation inside clearly. Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive understood that if this metal piece wasn't special, then it was because his divine power was not as strong as before. He helplessly put the item aside and picked up the golden beast egg. There were many runes on the surface of the beast egg. However, these runes didn't obstruct Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive's vision. At a glance, Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive saw the embryonic form of a strange celestial beast.
"How … How is this possible?" Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive was dumbfounded. Although he didn't recognize this celestial beast, he was familiar with the aura of the celestial beast sealed by the golden runes. "How can there be such a beast egg in the Celestial World? Could … Could it be that Xiao's senses were wrong? Although Wang Lang is the Celestial Master Residence's envoy, he … he can't possibly have come into contact with a beast egg with this kind of aura, right? "
In the Jade Archive, Xiao Hua had a bad feeling. He wasn't sure if this egg was what he thought it was. He carefully put it away and took out the last item. The last item should be the most precious. However, after Xiao Hua took out the jade archive, he discovered that it was a picture scroll. He raised his hand and opened the picture scroll. A female immortal's back facing the sea of clouds appeared before his eyes.
The painting was simple and unadorned, and the colors were equally simple. It was only rendered in black and white. The boundless sea of clouds and the lonely silhouette of the female immortal filled Xiao Hua's heart the moment he saw the painting.
"Clouds form the mountain ridge and mist form the valley.
The sunset is a neon garment, and the star is a hairpin.
The beauty of the four seasons ends in a single breath.
Thousands of years of morning and evening. "
In the Jade Archive, Xiao Hua couldn't help but recite the beautiful poem that was written in the corner of the painting. A faint moisture appeared in the corner of his eyes. He couldn't help but think of Guo Zhuang and his mother's white hair in the wind …
"Liu Yanyu?" Looking at the name on the painting, Xiao Hua in the Jade Archive whispered, "Is this the name of the female immortal or the painter? Or the poet's name? However, seeing how Wang Lang treasured it so much, could it be that this guy's lover? Forget it, forget it, Wang Lang is already a thing of the past. Xiao, I'm sorry! "
With that, Xiao Hua in the Jade Archive rubbed his hands together. The space around him distorted and fell towards the painting. "Shua", an extremely strange fluctuation appeared from the painting and blocked Xiao Hua's spatial power.
"Eh?" Xiao Hua was stunned. Looking at the fluctuation, he said curiously, "This … This fluctuation's rules seem … seem to be different from the Celestial World? Could it be that there's something strange about this thing? "
However, Xiao Hua didn't know much about the Celestial World. He really didn't know anything about it. He could only put the painting away and think about it later.
It was true that people were in high spirits when they were happy. Then, in the Jade Archive, Xiao Hua happily took out the Ink Immortal Pupil that Shuo Bing gave him and studied it. It didn't take long for him to master it. He also roughly looked at Wang Lang's Ink Immortal Pupil before his mind left the space. He didn't know when the two immortals hiding in the immortal prefecture would make their move. He had to help Shuo Bing set up the "urn" first.
After escaping from the immortal's cave, Xiao Hua was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he activated the Sky Ring and hid in a corner for a while. When he saw that there was nothing unusual, he activated his Sky Ring and flew up to the first level of space. There were immortal soldiers all around the Mount Shooting Residence. They were still carefully watching Hsiao Huaxian's belongings before letting Xiao Hua in.
The Mount Shooting Residence had been a little cold and cheerless before. Now, it was even more desolate. Other than the immortal soldiers on guard duty, there were only a few Chi Family servants. Without any hesitation, Xiao Hua went straight to the study. He knew that the stubborn Chi Xiaoxia would be there.
Sure enough, Uncle Qiu was standing carefully outside the study. When he saw Xiao Hua return, he opened his mouth but didn't say anything. However, the hope in his eyes was obvious. Xiao Hua nodded at him and stepped into the study.
The study had been cleaned up. Three bluestone coffins were placed neatly on the desk. Chi Xiaoxia stood motionless in front of Chi Zhongping's corpse. Her eyes were fixed on Chi Zhongping's calm face.
Xiao Hua quietly walked to Chi Xiaoxia's side. He didn't say anything and just quietly accompanied her. He knew that the grief was Chi Xiaoxia's, not his. No matter what he said, it was impossible for Chi Xiaoxia's grief to lessen. It was nonsense to say that sharing grief with others would reduce grief. It would only increase the gloating of others.
After a while, Chi Xiaoxia opened her mouth and said, "I really regret it. I feel that I've lived the first half of my life in vain! I thought that Father would accompany me for the rest of my life. I never listened to him. I didn't know that Father valued me so much that he gave me the most important thing in the family. I always thought that he felt that I was a disgrace to him, so he threw me out! How could I be so stupid? Now that I think about it, I've wasted too much time. If Big Brother and Second Brother can step into the Leaking Immortal Realm, why can't I? If my cultivation was high, I wouldn't have left the Mount Shooting Prefecture that day. With me around, Father, Big Brother and Second Brother wouldn't have been killed … "
Chi Xiaoxia's words were somewhat incoherent. Xiao Hua just listened to her!
"… If I wasn't so arrogant, the Lin Family wouldn't have broken off the engagement. I wouldn't have gone to the Lin Family to make trouble. Father wouldn't have resigned from the position of Mount Shooting Prefecture, and Mount Shooting Wights wouldn't have come here. This … is all my fault …"
Father, Big Brother, Second Brother, don't worry. I'll definitely become a True Immortal. I … I'll definitely avenge you. I'll definitely annihilate Yuan Ling Mountain and all the undead spirits there!!! "
After saying that, Chi Xiaoxia looked up at Xiao Hua. In an instant, Xiao Hua saw an indescribable determination in his eyes. Xiao Hua believed that with this determination, Chi Xiaoxia could trample the heaven and earth under his feet.
"You're back? How did it go? "
"It went very smoothly …" Xiao Hua said calmly, "Do you need me to tell you again?"
"No need!" Chi Xiaoxia said seriously to Xiao Hua. "This matter has nothing to do with me. I don't care about any credit. I only hope that Fellow Immortal Xiao can put in a few good words for me on the day I succeed. Help me get my revenge!"
"Don't worry!" Xiao Hua promised. "Xiao will do his best to help you."
"If you want to come to Mount Shooting Prefecture, then come. If you don't want to, then don't come!" Chi Xiaoxia said. "When Helan Que's ban ends, I will bring the immortal coffin to the Hidden Lake Residence. If you come to Dreamy Cloud Swampland in the future, you can come and see me. If you don't come, I won't blame you!"
"It's still too early to say goodbye …" Xiao Hua shook his head. "Don't say goodbye so early. I haven't prepared myself to leave yet. If you say that, it will make me feel uneasy for a long time."
Chi Xiaoxia didn't answer. He turned to look at Chi Zhicheng's face. Xiao Hua could clearly see sparkling tears falling from the corners of his eyes. It seemed like the memories of his childhood always made his heart soften.
"Sigh, the tears of an immortal are the same as the tears of a mortal!" Xiao Hua sighed. He left quietly, just like how he came in.
The night was as usual. It didn't change because of sadness. Xiao Hua was no longer afraid of Gui Hun Moon. He stood in front of the study and looked at the crystal-like moonlight. He couldn't help but admire the beauty of the moon in the immortal world. However, he suddenly noticed that even though the moonlight in the Immortal Dimension was beautiful, wasn't the moonlight too dazzling? It actually covered up a small half of the sky, and even the dazzling stars in the sky were covered up.
Just as he was thinking, the seven night skies on one side of Gui Hun Moon suddenly trembled and twisted. Then, the seven stars in the night sky lit up. The stars flickered a few times and fell from the sky like rain. They streaked towards a corner of Dreamy Cloud Swampland. When the stars passed by Gui Hun Moon, crimson flowers bloomed!
Xiao Hua was shocked. He wanted to ask Uncle Qiu about it. Unfortunately, Uncle Qiu was focused on the situation in the study. He didn't care about anything else. Xiao Hua could only look at the strange phenomenon in the night sky again and leave Mount Shooting Manor.
Although it was night time, the moonlight of Gui Hun Moon was like water. It washed away the darkness. Xiao Hua felt nothing special flying in the night sky. The Immortal County Manor was naturally at the center of the upper level. Before Xiao Hua even got close, he could already see groups of immortal soldiers patrolling the surroundings! Xiao Hua knew that something was wrong. As expected, when he activated the Sky Ring and got close, faint halos appeared everywhere in the Immortal County Manor. Obviously, all the restrictions had been opened. There were also several Senjō standing guard in front of the door. Although Xiao Hua had the Sky Ring, how could he enter with his current ability?
"Sigh, I've thought of everything, but I forgot about this!" Xiao Hua sighed and quietly retreated. "Although Shuo Bing has already given Xiao the Immortal County Seal and the immortal art to enter the Immortal County Manor, but … but how can Xiao enter without attracting the attention of the Senjō? I'd better wait for an opportunity. When they really want to search the entire Helan Que, I'll wait for the opportunity to act! "
PS: After racking my brains for a solution for Xiao Hua, I've thought of a way. Fellow Daoists, what do you think of using your recommendation tickets to break the restrictions in the Immortal County Manor? Monthly tickets, this kind of large-scale weapon of mass destruction, can be used before giving it to Xiao Hua …
