Chu Xingyun and Shui Qianyue looked at each other, both speechless.
Shui Qianyue felt a sense of fear in the depths of her heart. She was suddenly worried that if she said those words, the balance between her and Chu Xingyun would be broken, and she would not even be able to stay by his side.
The sense of fear grew stronger and stronger.
There was a moment of silence in the air, and the atmosphere was filled with awkwardness.
Woo woo woo!
At this moment, the sound of a baby crying came from the courtyard, breaking the awkwardness between the two.
Shui Qianyue trembled, as if she had found a life-saving straw. She said to Chu Xingyun, "It seems that she woke up by accident. I'll go and see her."
With that, she did not wait for Chu Xingyun to reply. She turned around and quickly walked into the courtyard.
Looking at Shui Qianyue's hurried back, Chu Xingyun shook his head, a bitter smile on his face.
Chu Xingyun saw Shui Qianyue's thoughts and her tangled thoughts. But it was also because of this that he was also extremely nervous and did not know what to do.
"It's hard. It's too hard to be a human." Chu Xingyun smiled bitterly again. He looked back at the boundless snow, raised his hand, and gulped down large mouthfuls of bitter liquor.
At this moment, the snow grew heavier and heavier, almost covering Chu Xingyun's figure.
However, the heart-wrenching coughs were incomparably clear, and even the whistling of the wind and snow could not drown them out.
No one else knew about Chu Xingyun's worries. At this moment, even though the wind and snow grew fiercer, the scenery inside and outside Wanjian Pavilion was still fiery. Countless people gathered at the foot of Ten Thousand Swords Mountain, staring at the simple sword stele in front of them with burning eyes.
Earlier, Shui Qianyue had already passed down the order that whoever could break through the Water Sword Stele would be able to obtain the Black Tortoise Sword Intent in the Sword Stele and replace her as Chu Xingyun's personal disciple.
As soon as the news came out, the entire Wanjian Pavilion went into an uproar.
Chu Xingyun's feat of erecting seven sword steles and selecting his personal disciples had long been known to everyone. Everyone was filled with admiration and envy. Today, the Water Sword Stele was erected once again. Whoever could break it would be able to replace Shui Qianyue and obtain the precious Black Tortoise Sword Intent.
No one wanted to miss out on such a great opportunity. Thus, everyone from the Wanjian Pavilion came to the foot of the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain and carefully and nervously tried to break through the sword stele.
This lively scene continued for quite some time. When night gradually fell and the sky gradually darkened, there were still many people from the Wanjian Pavilion gathered at the foot of the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain.
What's more, the news had already spread. Very soon, even more people would come to the Wanjian Pavilion to try to break through the Water Sword Stele.
In the pavilion deep within the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain, Chu Xingyun could naturally feel the lively atmosphere at the foot of the mountain. However, he did not pay too much attention to it. He leaned against the cold stone pillar and drank the strong wine in his hand.
His eyes shone brightly. It was as if countless thoughts flashed through his mind. Every one of them was so resolute.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Chu Xingyun seemed to have sensed something. He lowered his head and swept his gaze across. The Ten Thousand Elephant Gauntlet on his right arm was actually trembling. The six Origin Crystals were vibrating and intertwining with each other. The resonance was even louder.
"It's finally here." A smile appeared on Chu Xingyun's face.
As he spoke, a streak of jade-green light tore through the night sky. Instantly, the wind stopped howling and the night sky became slightly brighter. A blurry figure swept over from nearby, constantly approaching Chu Xingyun.
Not long later, the figure arrived above the courtyard. It was an exquisitely crafted flying spiritual puppet. It looked like a roc and its wings were dozens of meters long. Even the cry from its mouth was like that of a real roc.
On the back of the flying spiritual puppet, Mo Wang Gong, who was dressed in green, stood there. His figure flickered and suddenly landed in front of Chu Xingyun. On his face, he couldn't help but grin.
"Thank you for your trouble, Senior Mo." Chu Xingyun bowed to Mowang Gong and thanked him. As soon as he spoke, Mowang Gong was stunned. Then, he did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Kid, can't you let me be happy for a while?"
As he spoke, Mowang Gong carefully took out an item from his chest.
It was a crystal, about the size of a baby's fist. It was completely black in color and there was a brilliance lingering in it. One could faintly see a wisp of black gas floating inside the crystal. It was as dark as the abyss and it was terrifying.
When this item appeared, Chu Xingyun immediately felt the Ten Thousand Elephant Arm Guard tremble violently. The six Origin Source Mysterious Crystals released a dazzling brilliance that seemed to tear the night sky apart. It was so bright and vigorous that it could be seen clearly even from afar.
Moreover, this ink-black crystal was the same. It released a deep black brilliance and the crystal trembled violently, as if it was trying to break free from Mowang Gong's palm.
"Although there were some twists and turns in the process, I did not disappoint you. I brought this Dark Origin Mysterious Crystal back in one piece." Mowang Gong grinned at Chu Xingyun. With a slight thought, the Dark Origin Mysterious Crystal floated in the air and slowly came before Chu Xingyun.
A few days ago, Chu Xingyun entrusted Mowang Gong to go to the Abandoned Land. He asked the latter to help him retrieve the Dark Origin Mysterious Crystal and give him a detailed map.
Before he set off, Mowang Gong knew that the Abandoned Land was full of danger. If it was not for Chu Xingyun's map, he would not have been able to find the Dark Origin Mysterious Crystal. It was too hidden. No wonder no one had been able to find it for thousands of years.
"Oh, right."
Chu Xingyun stared at the Dark Origin Mysterious Crystal. Before he could do anything, Mowang Gong changed the topic and said seriously, "When I was looking for the Dark Origin Mysterious Crystal, I saw traces of the Liu Family."
Hearing Mowang Gong's words, Chu Xingyun was shocked. He asked, "How are they doing?"
When the Ancient Star Sect was destroyed, Chu Xingyun's body was already occupied by the Heart Demon. The Heart Demon faced the Liu Family with murderous intent. However, at the critical moment, Chu Xingyun used the power of the Legendary Ancient Sword to take back control of his body.
In that short moment, he ordered the Liu Family to be banished to the Abandoned Land. They were not allowed to step into the Northern Wilderness Region. Only by doing so would they not be killed by the Heart Demon. "Because of the Dark Origin Mysterious Crystal, the Abandoned Land was shrouded in darkness. It was difficult for ordinary people to survive. However, under the leadership of Liu Wentian, the Liu Family survived. This time, I took the Dark Origin Mysterious Crystal with me. Their living conditions should be greatly improved.
It shouldn't be difficult. " Mowang Gong said honestly. He was very secretive when he went to the Abandoned Land. No one discovered him.
"Why? You want to bring them back? "Seeing that Chu Xingyun was silent, Mowang Gong couldn't help but ask.
However, Chu Xingyun shook his head and said seriously, "They were banished to the Abandoned Land. It can be considered as retribution for what happened in the past. As for whether to bring them back, when to bring them back, and how to bring them back, all the decisions should be left to my parents."
Hearing Chu Xingyun's answer, Mowang Gong's eyes were filled with admiration. As the old saying went, whoever started the trouble should end it. It was enough that Chu Xingyun could do this. Everything else should be left to Chu Xingchen and Liu Mengyan.
