Chapter nine hundred and fourteen: caught off guard
The snow cave was quiet. The sudden change just now made Yun Xiao lean on his shoulder limply. But after a while, she fell asleep deeply. Xiao Qianye carefully touched the other person's forehead. I don't know what kind of memories made her so haggard in an instant. She could only guard patiently until the skylight outside dimmed little by little, and the night came silently. She finally let out a whisper, and then covered her chest with violent breathing in the next second as she woke up.
"A Xiao, are you feeling uncomfortable?" He quickly supported Yun Xiao and prevented her from moving. However, when she saw the dark sky outside, she jumped up and rushed to the door of Xuerong Cave, stomped her feet and cursed, "It's getting dark, why don't you call me up?"
"You are asleep." Xiao Qianye replied absent-mindedly and forced her back. Yun Xiao patted his forehead and said anxiously, "You shouted me when you fall asleep! Time was very urgent, and I was still sleeping in a daze all day. The guy I met on the mountain during the day was strange. The group of children he brought with him was also very wrong. There must be something wrong. Hurry up, follow Feng Ling to the branch of the Demon Cult..."
"You're asleep." He repeated mechanically, without listening to her complaint at all, and stubbornly asked the question just now, "Where are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Yun Xiao grinned at him and pulled him out and wanted to walk out: "I'm not feeling uncomfortable anymore, let's go quickly..."
"I won't go tonight." Xiao Qianye stood there motionless, watching Yun Xiao turn his face hesitantly, and said expressionlessly, "You can rest all night. If it's really okay, we'll set off again when dawn. If there's still something uncomfortable, then I will give up Dunhuang and the Demon Sect immediately and take you back."
"What did you say?" Yun Xiao let go of his wrist, almost unable to believe that he would say such words. He took a step back and looked at him like a stranger, and immediately asked a little angry, "It's all at the foot of Qilian Mountains. You said you want to leave your hands and ignore it now? Lei Gongmo is still in Dunhuang City. The Uighurs' movements are also very worrying. Now the Demon Cult is ready to move. If the three parties join forces to invade the east, wouldn't it be..."
Xiao Qianye looked at her disappointed eyes and his tone was still cold: "We are here to find our senior sister on this trip. Since our senior sister is fine, there is no need to meddle in other people's business. I am from Feiyuan and don't care about the Demon Sect or Zhongyuan."
"You..." Yun Xiao's face changed slightly, his eyes darkened, but he replied with a smile on his lips, "You won't do this."
"I have always been a person who can stand up high as long as it doesn't matter to me." Xiao Qianye retorted without hesitation, revealing a sneer, "From the day when I left Kunlun Mountain and returned to Feiyuan, I am such a person."
"I don't like such people." Yun Xiao looked straight into his eyes, looked at his tough face, and after a brief silence, he laughed softly, "But I know you are not such a person, otherwise from the moment the Night King appears, you can kill Mingxi directly, you will not be involved in the disaster of fragmentation, will not be regarded as a traitor and lackey, nor will you persist alone in the slander and mockery. Do you know something, so you are so anxious to take me away?"
Xiao Qianye stopped silently, Yun Xiao stared at every subtle change of expression, and then remembered the strange flames that ignited the entire mountain range during the day. The suspicion in his heart became more and more surging. He lowered his head and said slowly: "The Demon Cult believes in the holy fire. Although the festivals in Dunhuang City are only mixed with drugs in the flames, causing the people to have hallucinations after inhaling, the flames that appeared on the top of the mountain before... should belong to me."
"A Xiao..." His nervous hands were trembling. Yun Xiao calmly sat down with his arm again, gently pressed his heart and listened to the slight beating of the fire. Suddenly, he sat up straight and looked at his eyes seriously. "Qianye, I have never dared to tell you some things. In fact, I have faintly noticed from the moment I restored the original body of the emperor bird. The death of the previous generation of fire was not real death. It has a very subtle perception inheritance. This feeling is very magical. It is real. It is like having experienced it personally. I am actually different from Feiyuan Feidu, Alang and Lingshuang..."
Yun Xiao bit his lip, his face with a kind of uneasiness he had never seen before, and he held his hand tightly and used unconscious force: "I used to think I was an ordinary woman. Until I went to Feiyuan to meet Sister Feng Ji, I realized that I was one of the Gemini who was lost by Emperor Che. Although I had a little regret, it was nothing wrong to be a bird. But now, when I broke free from my mixed-blooded body and slowly restored the inheritance of the fire seed, I became more and more suspicious of my true life. Even the moment I saw the flames on the mountain, I actually felt like I... I don't know what it was."
She paused for a moment, glanced at Xiao Qianye carefully, as if she was a little scared, approached him and continued to say in a low voice: "Xinmo once said that the origin of the fire came from a fire that flowed out of the sky. After falling to Yinghuo Island, she accidentally devoured the young phoenix son who had not yet hatched, and then obtained a body that looked like a phoenix. Since then, it has been called the "Immortal Bird". However, the inheritance of the fire I can perceive is only after leaving Yinghuo Island. When Shuhuang went to Fushi Island, there was a piece of water light, and a bird was asleep under the water. She tried to separate her fire for the first time. From then on, that kind of bird became a new "Immortal Bird", retaining the characteristics of the fire, and inheriting the constraints of blood. Shuhuang chose to settle down in Fushi Island, stopping his purposeless wandering for tens of thousands of years, and transplanting the blue trees into the water center, becoming a holy place for thousands of birds to live in."
She took a deep breath, and closed her eyes and could see all the things that happened back then. However, the clearer she could see, the deeper the doubts in her heart: "So the current 'Immortal Bird' tribe is actually the same as the Lingfeng tribe. They are all races that have obtained the power of fire and are bound by the blood contract. Although the fire has immortal and powerful divine power to itself, except for the gift of the emperor bird, the others cannot be contaminated with external forces at all. It is a very domineering force. So the source of this power, Shuhuang, Chehuang, and my sister and I... what is it?"
"A Xiao, this doesn't matter." Xiao Qianye hugged her, as if he didn't want to continue the topic, and murmured to comfort her, "I never care whether you are a woman or a bird. You are by my side more important than anything else."
"But I want to know the truth." Yun Xiao suddenly looked up and saw the worry flashing in his eyes, as if there was something bottomless gloom hidden, which made her heart pound, "The flame of the immortal bird was given by Emperor Su, and the flame of the Lingfeng clan was given by Emperor Che. Where did the flame of the Demon Cult come from?"
"Is that really your flame?" Xiao Qianye frowned and looked ahead blankly, saying an excuse that he didn't believe it. "Can you feel wrong? Your injury has not healed, and it's not surprising that you made a mistake."
"No." Yun Xiao grabbed his hand and placed it in his heart, muttering to himself with a serious expression, "There will be a special resonance between the fires. I did hear that sound the moment I saw the flames on the top of the mountain burning. And when you hugged me and jumped off the cliff, I also saw some very strange scenes..."
As she spoke, Xiao Qianye had already seen the scene in her mouth through the hands that were placed on her heart. His eyes passed through the clouds and mist of the Qilian Mountains and through the clear and bright sky. He stared at the Void Gate and saw the desolate field behind him, shrouded in a cold and silence. Everything was covered with a thick layer of gray and white, and everything was quiet and lifeless.
Suddenly, a name suddenly jumped out and exploded in his mind like thunder - the wilderness of Ningyuan! This is the wilderness of Ningyuan, the eastern pillar of the divine realm that Langjiang once mentioned!
The next second, the Void Gate disappeared in sight, replaced by another paler world, the white ground, the gray sky, silent, light and temperature. The only color is a slightly burning flame in the middle. It was imprisoned by the power of the Emperor of Heaven in the gap of nothingness, and spent every day of suffering day after day. I don’t know how long this long life has passed until the vibration of the sky collapsed and the cracks of the earth caused cracks to appear in the gap, and the long-lost sunlight poured on the flame, causing the fire that had been silent for many years to shake violently.
The shackles suddenly disappeared, and the fire regained its posture as a goddess. After a brief confusion, with the cheering prisoners of the Heavenly Prison escaped, she returned to the wilderness of Ningyuan where she was born, but there was only a desolate left in her eyes. The pursuers behind her were getting closer and closer. In despair, she searched for memory to come to the place where the Emperor of Heaven opened the gates of the six realms. Then, the gate of void suddenly opened, and a terrifying light fell from the sky and fell into the mortal world, like a grand fire-colored meteor shower, drifting down magnificently towards all directions with long light tails. The firelights were bright and bright in their vision, but they exuded a faint gloom from afar, forming two completely opposite auras.
Such a magnificent scene really reminded him of a possibility - the heavenly fire in the divine realm cannot stay in the human realm for a long time, and the fire seeds snatched the young son of the phoenix after falling to Yinghuo Island to survive. The scattered flames scattered on the Shenzhou continent by hastily escaped and scattered on the Shenzhou continent. If you encounter the spiritual weapon left by the true god, you can keep it alive. Such things are not common, but not without them. Such jade rings on the statue of Queen Mother of the West in the Wuyan Valley have the power to carry the heavenly fire.
The Demon Sect... Could it be that it was also by chance that something similar?
Xiao Qianye took a breath of coldness and immediately withdrew his hand. However, it was too late. Yun Xiao looked at him blankly as if he had been evacuated. Just as she wanted to present the scene she saw when she jumped off the cliff to Xiao Qianye, she unexpectedly saw a more shocking scene in his eyes. The goddess who broke free from the shackles and transformed from the flames actually looked amazingly similar to her current appearance!
It seemed like a destined thing, unexpectedly born in this world with a human body, but it had a face that was tens of thousands of years ago and was exactly the same as the goddess in the heavenly realm.
