Chapter 9 Seeing the Towering Imperial City

"Xiyan! What's wrong with you?" Qiu Sheng wanted to hug her looming body, but couldn't touch it.

Qiu Sheng put his hand on her chest, and slowly passed on her spiritual energy to her, and her dreamlike body gradually stabilized.

Seeing this, Qiu Sheng picked her up and carried her to her dormitory, then put her on the bed very gently and slowly, as if treating her like a fragile porcelain doll.

He unbuttoned her clothes, examined her wounds carefully, his soft palm brushed over every inch of her skin from top to bottom like fallen leaves blown by the wind.The wound on the broken soul faded and disappeared after he brushed it away, but she still couldn't see her awake.

"Who the hell?" He grinned angrily, feeling sorry for the many scars on her body, and after confirming that there was no external injury, he covered her with a quilt.

Putting his hands on his abdomen, Qiu Sheng forced out the spiritual power in his body, and the spiritual power diverted in his body turned into a solid body, twisted together in his open mouth, and then gathered into a round body.

Qiu Sheng gently opened her small cherry mouth, and fed the elixir into her mouth with his own lips, and pushed the elixir into her stomach with his hand along her throat.

However, her body began to twitch violently.Qiu Sheng immediately got luck in the palm, and placed the big palm full of strong internal force in front of her abdomen, using the internal force to restrain the restless pill.

"Xiyan, don't be afraid, I'm here." As if hearing his soft words, her uneasy body stabilized.

After she calmed down, he sat down beside her bed in peace, watching over her until she slowly woke up.

Staring at her with wide open eyes, lifeless but beautiful pupils: "Xi Yan, I'm sorry, I'm late." Qiu Sheng lovingly stroked her head: "Tell me, who hurt you?"

"Xiyan..." Her unfocused pupils rolled: "Xiyan's corpse..."

Corpse?No wonder she felt a little off when she woke up.

He closed his eyes abruptly, and then opened them again. The originally bewitching purple pupils instantly turned cold blue.His smooth and tender hands, like bamboo shoots, swept across her body.From his eyes, he saw her broken main soul, but, among the souls that kept floating in his eyes, the dead dog soul was missing.

"Who is it?" His gentle tone suddenly became vicious.

She looked at the ceiling and said uncertainly: "I don't know...he is bald on the top of his head, has beards and hairs on his temples, and the tip of his nose is turned up, like a bird pecking..." She frowned slightly: "What is it? Woolen cloth?"

Isn't this a characteristic of vultures?Could it be him? "It's a pity, you are only good at martial arts, and it really isn't enough to protect yourself. It's just that you have one-tenth of my mana now, and I will avenge you someday when I teach you how to use it."

She nodded slightly and closed her eyes: "Master, I'm so tired."

Thinking of her playful smiling face in the past, but now it's a thing of the past, leaving only a puppet-like body alive, he was so angry that he couldn't control himself, and vowed to pay with his blood.

"Xiyun." Dragging his seriously injured body, he found him in the imperial study.

"Wrong Shadow, why did you come here? I have been enthroned for several days." Xi Yun happily brought him in, then closed the door of the imperial study, but was stunned when he found the blood on his body: "Wrong Shadow...you..."

"The Jade Emperor wants to take back half my life's cultivation, and go down the mountain of swords and the sea of ​​fire to suffer." Cuoying collapsed on the beauty in the corner of his imperial study.

"Why..." Xiyun was about to cry anxiously, and suddenly thought of something: "Could it be because of me? Because you hurt Hei Tiangu and snatched the throne?"

"No, don't blame yourself." Wrong Shadow grabbed his hand to calm his heart: "I'll just take a rest."

"Then I'll wash your wound and change your clothes." Xiyun said and left.

The wrong shadow called him: "No, I can still heal myself from this injury. It's just that if I teach you part of my practice, will you accept it?"

"Pass it on to me? You have given me too much favor, I really don't want it anymore." Thinking of everything he has done for him, he was so touched that he couldn't extricate himself.Driven by what kind of emotion, can Wu Ying be desperate for him?Is it really just because of a debt?

"Xiyun, listen to me. If the Jade Emperor really takes half of my life to practice, it will really destroy everything I have cultivated for 5000 years. Do you understand?"

Beauty Xiyun took a seat by the side: "But, is it really okay for you to entrust your most important thing to me, an ordinary person?"

"Xiyun, you already have an immortal body, and you are no longer a mortal." I wanted to tell him before, but was suddenly called back to the heavenly court by the heavenly soldiers and generals. Now I have this opportunity, so of course I can't let it go.

"No wonder..." Xiyun suddenly remembered that before he was captured, his hands were on fire. He felt that he had many questions unanswered: "Why did that happen? What happened after I fainted one day? Why did you delay for several days?" The genius came back? Is it because he was imprisoned?"

Cuoying sat up, and Xiyun was worried that his wound would be involved when he got up, so he pressed his shoulders and wanted him to lie back, but Cuoying fell on his lap with an unsteady center of gravity.

Cuoying rested his head on his leg, looked straight at him, and raised a smirk: "Well, it's very comfortable. I didn't expect you to be so caring."

"What... what... I... accidentally..." Xiyun blushed up to her neck in embarrassment for a moment.

His flushed cheeks are as charming as fresh and tender fruits, his unique body fragrance comes from his nose, and his head rests on the nephrite fragrance, and the wrong image is a little distracted, but he must endure the hot desire, This taste is really uncomfortable.

"Ke Ke Ke... yes, Ru Ru... if you feel comfortable... just... continue to lie down." To be honest, it was the first time he had such intimate contact with someone other than his parents, even Jun Yi had never had it before, so it was really no wonder He was so flustered.

"Xiyun, you are so cute." Cuoying said the inappropriate adjective sincerely.

"I'm cute? You're cute! If it weren't for your injury, I would ignore you." Xiyun forgot to be embarrassed, and retorted angrily: "Don't change the subject for me, you haven't answered my question just now. "

"Huh? What?" He looked at him with innocent eyes.

His expression really made Xiyun feel uneasy.If he didn't understand his essence, he would be deceived by his innocent appearance like a little white rabbit.

Because she knew him well, she refused to teach him to be vague, so Xiyun recited it verbatim: "Why did that happen? What happened to me after I fainted one day? Why did you delay coming back for several days? It's because Have you been imprisoned?"

"You have a really good memory." It's just what you should remember, but you forgot, his heart suddenly filled with infinite sadness: "I injured him, he will not be able to move for a while."

"Knowing that he is following the Jade Emperor's will, you still act like that, and you deserve the punishment." Although he knew that he was doing it for himself, he really didn't want to see the wrong shadow being hurt because of him: "Then what about my current body? What's going on?" After waking up that time, he suddenly felt full of energy, as if he had been transformed into another person.

"I put the inner alchemy of the Vulture King into your body. Now you are not only immortal, but also his 3000 years of practice." Wrong Shadow calmly said the fact that he was horrified.

"Why do you make such a messy decision for me without authorization!" Xi Yun finally broke out the anger that he had held back for a long time.

"Didn't you be accidentally injured by his blood sword and you were about to die?" To him, this demon pill was a nightmare existence, and redrawing the demon pill was like reminding him of the past that he tried to obliterate: " For me, if I hadn't had to, I wouldn't have let this evil thing touch your ice-clean soul."

After hearing his affectionate confession, Xiyun was stunned: "Forget it, it doesn't matter." The raw rice is already ripe, what else can he do? "Didn't you say that you have practiced for nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine years? If the Jade Emperor wanted you to practice for half your life, would he take four thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine years or five thousand years?" He was really curious.

"You asked a very profound question." Wuying didn't know how much the Jade Emperor would want, but this question can be ignored, because he won't let him succeed: "So you accept it?"

"Are you sure you gave it to me, and it won't have any bad effects on you?" He was most worried about this, he didn't want him to get hurt for him again, he did too much for him, it was enough.

"Don't worry, it's fine." It's not the first time: "But I won't give you too much, because I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it."

"That?"

"In 2000, it's just that after you get the 2000 years of cultivation... you'll be fine." Anyway, he will know when the time comes.Wanting to grant him the 2000 years of practice is not only because he doesn't want the Jade Emperor to take it away, but also because of his little selfishness.

"If you don't say it, don't say it." He had a premonition that he would know sooner or later, not too late: "You haven't told me why you took so long to come back."

"One moment in the sky and two days in the world. I only went for half an hour at most, right?" Cuoying didn't know how long he had been there. Seeing that he had been enthroned for so long, he guessed it was about half an hour.

"So there is such a law." Xiyun opened her eyes full of curiosity.

"There are still many things you don't know." Cuoying saw his innocent eyes, and couldn't help but smile knowingly: "I'm ready, let's start now." Cuoying sat up straight with his hands beside him .

"Then... go to my dormitory and keep it secret."

Xiyun and Cuoying faced each other, sitting cross-legged on the bed, their fingers intertwined.

Misty Shadow slowly transported his aura from the palm of his hand into his body.Before, because he was unconscious, it was refined into pills and fed into his mouth, but now that he is awake, there is no need for that.

It's just that he has a mortal physique, so he doesn't know if he can successfully integrate the demon pill and his aura into his body?

Xiyun frowned, sweating continuously on his forehead, and felt like a family of fire was burning in his abdomen.

The strange images coming from the spring flashed through his mind one after another, as if they were going to tear his whole body apart, without giving him a chance to breathe.

A steady voice sounded in his mind, so familiar, but he couldn't remember who it belonged to.Every word and every sentence uttered by that voice seemed to be full of affection, passing through the mountains and flowing water, and slipping down to his heart.The owner of this voice was looking at him with amorous pupils, but for some reason there was a trace of sadness.

From his perspective, he couldn't see himself, but what came out of his mouth was a female voice, as soft as an oriole coming out of a valley.However, his heart was so confused that even he himself couldn't figure it out.

The amorous him in front of him held his hand and taught him to play the piano. Just as he was still immersed in this picture, his thoughts changed and his perspective changed.

The same male voice came out of his mouth.His eyes were looking at her with tears streaming down his face, his heart was no longer dazzled, but filled with pain.

Afterwards, strange pictures appeared again and again in my mind.He didn't understand why these inexplicable things invaded his mind, he seemed to have experienced it before, but he had no impression.

When he was struggling to shake them out of his mind, all the pictures suddenly became blank, as if someone had blocked everything.

Xiyun's ten fingers pinched into the back of Cuoying's hand, and blood overflowed, but he still didn't notice it, only felt that there was a kind of magical power constantly pouring into his body.

It is the purest force that just pushed him into the abyss of pain, but pulled him back, soothed his turbulent heart, but also hypnotized him, making his eyelids gradually heavy, and finally closed due to fatigue .

"Actually, what the Dragon King said is quite reasonable." The queen mother kindly persuaded him, after all, it is not easy to cultivate for ten thousand years, and she couldn't bear to ruin his hard work.

But the Jade Emperor still couldn't bear his anger: "You didn't hear how much he said..."

Before he could finish speaking, the Queen Mother went on to say, "How arrogant, right? Are you going to use up a talent just because of your temper?"

The Jade Emperor was silent.

"Let's put it this way, Hei Tiangou did injure mortals and violated the rules of heaven, and you only punished the Dragon King, and didn't punish Hei Tiangou. If he dies, why not consider letting him make up for his mistakes?" The Queen Mother suggested.

"Make up for it?"

"Let him assist the current emperor and resolve his intractable diseases. After all, what is done is done. If there is no way to change it, it is better to accept it from another angle."

"That's fine." The Jade Emperor readily accepted the suggestion, "It's just who should be sent to talk about it?"

The Queen Mother looked at Yao Ji who was standing behind the Seven Fairies: "Yao Ji, you can go."

"Ah? What? Me?" Yao Ji jumped in surprise, she had deliberately hidden herself behind Seven Fairies, but she was still called out.

"Go and explain to the Dragon King what I just said to the Jade Emperor."

"But... I have an appointment with Chang'e and the others..." Yao Ji still wanted to refuse.

"Is that date of yours more important than my confession?" Jade Emperor didn't want to force her either.

"No..." Yaoji shrugged her head recklessly: "I'll go now." After speaking, her feathers fluttered and her body as light as a swallow flew away.

"Yaoji?" Cuoying looked at the masked Yaoji who suddenly appeared in front of her eyes in surprise: "What are you doing here?"

"The Jade Emperor said that he can pardon your crimes, but he only asks you to agree to one condition." Yao Ji deliberately lowered her voice.

"Is your throat hurt?" Hearing that her voice was different from usual, Wu Ying asked curiously.

"It's just... sick." Yao Ji panicked and explained, and from the corner of her eyes, she secretly glanced at Xi Yun who was leaning quietly on the bed.

Although she didn't quite believe it, but she didn't want to say it, so he didn't ask further: "Then what conditions does the Jade Emperor want me to agree to?"

"Let you assist the current Holy Majesty to share your worries and worries."

"That's it?" Cuoying was really surprised when he heard the conditions, after all, it was no difficulty for him.

Yao Ji thought for a while: "Well... Also, the lady said that you missed my appointment, so you have to buy me a few drinks."

"Empress?" Cuoying smiled lightly, folded his arms around his chest: "You mean this is what the Queen Mother meant?"

"Yes." Yao Ji lifted up the face towel, picked up the cup on the table and took a sip, without the panic and nervousness that lying should have.

"Do you think I'll believe you?" It's not that he doesn't want to invite you, after all, it doesn't cost much to eat a meal. Of course, this refers to the situation where only he and she eat together.

"You have to believe it if you don't believe it." Yao Ji blinked her autumn pupils, after all, it was a fact that he caused her to miss the appointment.

The wrong shadow is called bad.

Sure enough, in the next second, her eyes filled with spring water were filled with tears, which slid down her beautiful cheeks, and her small mouth was also flattened.

Fearing that she would get out of control when she cried, he could not help his forehead: "Okay, why don't I promise you?"

Hearing his words, Yao Ji held back her tears, and stopped as soon as she said: "Good boy, my good brother."
