Chapter 138: The same destination
The Phoenix of the Sky fell in the backyard of Tianzheng Mansion, and Feng Ji jumped down lightly. This was the second time she had come here. It was deserted and a little depressed, making people feel uncomfortable all over.
She looked around thoughtfully and stared at the subtle changes in front of her. Today, the panicked servants in the mansion were gone. The empty doors and windows of Tianzheng Mansion were closed. After the flowers, plants and trees that were carefully planted were burned by the phoenix fire eight years ago, they were also removed and covered with cold blue bricks.
The blood was wiped out, the fire had already been extinguished, but the sad voices and wails appeared clearly in my ears as if they were yesterday.
Feng Ji sighed, Xiao Qianye noticed the breath of flames and walked out of the room softly, and closed the door carefully with his backhand. Feng Ji's eyes flashed and glanced at the sleeping woman in the room, and asked unhappily: "What stupid thing has she done? She can actually drive the Frost Sky Phoenix Aura?"
Xiao Qianye lowered his head and looked at Likong Jian, smiled helplessly. When his wrist moved, the sword energy turned into a beam of light and approached Feng Ji.
Feng Ji avoided her sideways, but she also showed an unbelievable expression at the same time. She looked at the place where the sword light disappeared in surprise and saw a moment of divine appearance. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she blurted out: "Soul-dividing...a great method?"
"She split her soul and soul and attached it to Likong Sword to protect me." Xiao Qianye also had complicated eyes, and he didn't know what kind of expression he had on his face. When he looked at each other, Feng Ji couldn't help but curse angrily, "Do you know what her situation is? The power of Chen Yue has been exhausted. Now only Frost Tianxue can barely suppress the breath of the Spirit Phoenix, but this stupid thing... No wonder Frost Tian Phoenix wants to leave her. The soul-dividing technique is an evil magic, and will instinctively be rejected by the breath of the Spirit Phoenix in her body. She must have used Frost Tianxue to restrain the breath of the Spirit Phoenix and force the soul-dividing technique to carry out! No wonder Frost Tianqi will leave!"
"I know." Xiao Qianye just glanced at her quickly and looked away, and kept lowering his head and turning the hilt habitually, "I want to save her."
"Save her..." Feng Ji's tone sank, and immediately discovered a subtle abnormality from his strange expression. She suddenly looked up at the distant sky and pondered for a long time before saying, "The time in the heaven world is different from the next one. It has been ten days since you left Feiyuan, but if you were in the heaven world, it would have only been a moment before. Who did you meet? What did they say to you? Feng Jiuqing's...who do you really want to believe those words?"
While she was speaking, she also made the Phoenix Celestial Phoenix surrounded a fire wall out of instinctive vigilance, and coupled with the secondary blocking of her own spiritual power, she formed a completely closed barrier.
"You have said similar things and want to exchange for that ancient seed by yourself." Xiao Qianye smiled slightly, raised his hand to his heart, "He also admitted that this method is feasible, and it has the value of giving it a try."
"He..." Feng Ji showed a surprised expression, then suddenly reacted and exclaimed, "It's Di Zhong! What did he say to you?"
Xiao Qianye's eyes were low, and despite her surprised and suspicious eyes, he spoke calmly: "He has coexisted with me, and he can't live alone even if I die, so he is willing to help me deal with the Night King..."
"You are lying." Feng Ji interrupted him sternly, sneered, and asked sternly, "Even if you cheat others, I know better than you where is the heaven world. Even if he and you already coexist, it is impossible to help you unconditionally! What did he tell you? Was he convinced you or was he brainwashed by him?"
Xiao Qianye held the hilt of the sword in secret, as if he was also struggling violently. Feng Ji kept suppressing her anxiety, her eyes slightly sank, and said in a low voice: "Is it for Yun Xiao?"
“…”
"Sure enough." She breathed a sigh of relief, but seemed to feel relieved, "Is there any way to save her?"
Xiao Qianye took a deep breath, but hesitated: "He didn't say it clearly, but I... have a intuition that he is indeed the one who can save A Xiao."
"Intuition?" Feng Ji murmured, thinking - in the legend of the Lingfeng clan, Di Zhong and the Divine Bird did have a brief encounter, and the Divine Bird even made a supreme invitation to the God of War.
"Before this, I must go to the Valley of Confinement to get something back." Xiao Qian interrupted her thoughts, and a snow flashed in her eyes, and she spoke sternly. "The Valley of Confinement is known as the forbidden area in the forbidden area. It is located in the center of the "Empty Holy Land" one of the seven forbidden areas in the Eastern Underworld. The junction of the two forbidden areas is called the Five Emperors Lake, and the ancient Chen was inserted into the heart of the nightmare and sank at the bottom of the lake."
"Do you want me to help you get the ancient Chen?" Feng Ji heard his implication directly, "There are god guards in the forbidden area, and humans are generally not allowed to step on easily. The Five Emperors Lake is one of the four seals of the realm. If you want to go deeper, I can only help you let the god guards go."
"I want to break the seal of the Five Emperors Lake at the same time." Xiao Qianye added calmly. Although it was a shocking remark, his face showed an indifferent expression. "I am trying to win the trust of King Ye and help him regain his body as his fellow practitioner Di Zhong. I am not asking you to let God Shou let go, but just ask you to remind them a little, don't overestimate your ability to stop me, otherwise I can also attack them when necessary."
"You..." Feng Ji raised her eyebrows. She was a smart person. She immediately changed her words, "You want to act with the Night King?"
"How did King Ye die?" Xiao Qianye leaned further, his tone was also quiet for a moment, reminding me, "Shu Shaobai told me that it was when he saw the phoenix in your body that relaxed his vigilance, which allowed the ferocious beasts that had been dormant at his feet to find a fleeting opportunity! Before that, he would rather bear to watch you die once than dare to take action rashly, because he knew that he must win with one blow, otherwise he would not have a second chance to take action, and it is the same now."
"After the seal is broken, it will cause unpredictable natural disasters in the local area... Is that true?" Xiao Qianye paused for a while and spoke in a complicated manner, "If there are aliens living in the underground cracks there, please let them leave as soon as possible. Even if it is acting, I don't want to implicate too many innocent people."
Feng Ji suddenly realized that her face was pale, and she bit her lips for a long time and didn't say anything. This person has changed a lot. If it were the Xiao Qianye when she first met, he would definitely not care about the life and death of hundreds of thousands of humans and alien races there.
"After retrieving Gu Chen, I'm afraid I can't stay in Feiyuan." Xiao Qianye smiled bitterly, "I will become Feiyuan's enemy, and you can't come to Tianzheng Mansion as a guest like now."
Feng Ji pursed her lips, not knowing what to say for a moment.
He was one of the biggest contributors to assist the new emperor in ascending the throne. He should have regained his own power and status and rested with peace of mind as his high-ranking officials and nobles. No one could threaten him or hurt him again. But when everything was about to improve, he had to be an enemy of the entire Feiyuan as a betrayer!
By breaking the seals of the four major realms and destroying the central array eye, he will become the culprit of destroying the flying earth, be regarded as a traitor by everyone, be scolded and revenge-killed. Even if there is a more unfathomable strategy hidden in it, he must be in a darkness that covers the eyes and is absolutely dark.
"You are the hero who saved Feiyuan." Xiao Qianye was obviously more awake than her and smiled, "What a pity, I will eventually go against you."
Feng Ji smiled helplessly. She has been regarded as a hero who saved Feiyuan for so many years. Everyone respected and yearned for her, but she lost patience in her heart with this Liudao falling into the sky and the sea. Even during this long and painful time, this relationship began to undergo subtle qualitative changes. She no longer cared about the living environment of aliens. Whether it was massacre or extermination, she could accept everything calmly and indifferently.
If I had chosen to give up the Island at that time, with their abilities, they could have gone to a brand new place and lived a life like a fairy couple, but at that time, I stubbornly chose to save it.
——Saving a Liu Island and destroying her life. For a moment, she hated this Liu Island that took Shu Shaobai to the core.
The person in front of me is also following the old path, more ruthless than her choices back then, carrying more bitterness and helplessness.
Hero... This is really an ironic title. Everyone wants to be a hero, but everyone cannot understand the hero.
"I invite you here just to let you dismiss the people near the seal early, by the way..." Xiao Qianye shook his head and changed his tone, "By the way, you won't let you continue to cause trouble in the imperial capital. If I step too late, are you going to kill all the guests in Qinlou?"
"Oh...you said this." Feng Ji then remembered what she had done just now and coughed a few times, "It's nothing, don't they treat aliens like this before?"
"It's no problem to kill the chicken to warn the monkey, but don't backfire. After all, you can protect too few people with your own strength." Xiao Qianye reminded him softly, and his eyes instantly touched the unique cultivation of the high-ranking officials of the God Capital. "The regime in the world has just been settled, and His Majesty Mingxi is busy dealing with the heaven world. I'm afraid that he will not be able to make any decision to reform the old system. Are you not afraid of angering those old stubborn people and torture aliens even more severely in places you can't see?"
Feng Ji was stunned for a moment and shook her head: "That's right, after all, the aliens need to become stronger so that they will not be bullied."
"Yeah." Xiao Qianye pursed his lips, his eyes were somewhat anticipated, and he was a little confused. "I came from His Majesty and heard him talk about something. He wanted to hold a bipolar meeting in advance at the end of this month. I hope you and the Forbidden Land God Shou participated. Judging from his implication, it seemed that he planned to transfer the governance power of some areas to foreigners, and he would also reopen schools in the four major realms to teach some knowledge and martial arts. At that time, foreigners can also come to learn it."
Feng Ji thought something and did not respond. She was determined to fight for equal power for the alien race, but she never thought about what to do after this, in politics and business... It seems that none of the aliens who are weak in nature are good at. After all, they are just transformed by plants, trees, birds and animals, and do not have the long historical origins of human beings.
"Take it slow, no one can change overnight." Xiao Qianye saw her worries and comforted her calmly.
"Well..." Feng Ji nodded in a daze, suddenly tilted her head slightly, and her fingertips drifted away the flame barrier.
Yun Xiao walked out of the room in her pajamas and leaned against the door and smiled faintly at the two of them.
"A Xiao, am I waking you again?" Xiao Qianye hurried over, and in an instant it seemed like a different person. He gently touched the woman's slightly pale cheeks and gently pushed her back into the room, "Don't get up, go to sleep for a while. If you're hungry, I'll buy you some snacks later."
"I want to go with you." Yun Xiao stubbornly refused to go to bed and begged, "I recovered very quickly, and now my mind is very clear. Don't rush me to bed, okay?"
"No." Xiao Qianye looked calm and wrapped her quilt without saying a word, then turned around and opened the window for breathability.
"Hey!" Yun Xiao shouted dissatisfiedly. Xiao Qianye glared at her sternly. Yun Xiao felt guilty when he saw this. He could only pout and muttered in a low voice.
Feng Ji was a little surprised by the man's actions, and after a closer look, he found that Yun Xiao was not sleeping in the guest room, but his own room.
Feng Ji smiled gently, her eyes full of joy, but then she sank again, and finally let out a faint sigh.
"Will you bring her with you?" She suddenly asked inexplicably, and saw Xiao Qianye's busy hands pause slightly, a trace of undetectable cold light flashed in his eyes, he pursed his lips and nodded vigorously.
"That's good." Feng Ji sighed silently. Before she could say anything, she heard a noisy sound from the front hall, and then a series of footsteps came over in a messy and rapid manner.
"Who is here?" Feng Ji asked him with a look of farewell. Xiao Qianye's face froze. He seemed to have already been familiar with the strange sound. He hurriedly said, "Don't come out, don't come out!"
Feng Ji and Yun Xiao looked at each other, looked at him in confusion through the open window, and hurriedly closed the door of the room.
Immediately afterwards, a little girl shouted sharply from the backyard, with excitement and ecstasy, and directly crashed into Xiao Qianye's arms like a wild horse that broke free from reins, and hung her on him without any rules.
"Qianye Qianye! You are back!" Princess Longyue's eyes were swaying in tears, and she hugged him without caring about her identity.
