Chapter 973: Butterfly Valley
The white butterfly appeared in sight again and flew towards a quiet and dark bamboo forest. The two of them followed gently. This was the sea of spiritual butterflies bamboos outside the empty holy land, and it was one of the few places that would not be eroded by the forbidden miasma. A tributary of Lishui quietly and gently passed through the bamboo forest, forming a round lake as bright as jade deeper. Although the shore was dilapidated, it was still spotless in the bamboo house. The light and shadow of the butterfly had not dissipated for a long time.
Yun Xiao looked at the scene that suddenly appeared in front of her, as if there was some special force to soothe her nervous mood, which made her breathlessly feel relieved, and murmured, "What is this place? It's so beautiful."
"It's Dongming Butterfly Valley." Xiao Qianye replied in a low voice. The memories of the past suddenly reappeared in front of his eyes, making him pursed his lips slightly and let out a heavy sigh.
"Butter Valley..." Yun Xiao thought about it thoughtfully and asked in surprise, "Is it the Butterfly Valley where the underworld soul is located in Gongsun Yan's hand?"
"Yeah." He nodded, with a little sadness in his face. Yun Xiao held his hand tightly, feeling the unaware ups and downs in this always cold person's emotions. When he thought of the stubborn child's special attitude towards the soul of the soul, he couldn't help but feel curious, "Gongsun Yan can learn some strange magic. Could it be that he learned from the East Butterfly Valley? But I see that the scene here is so beautiful, although there is not a single person, the wind in the air is gentle, and there are small animals resting nearby, unlike where they can use cruel butterfly and soul art."
Xiao Qianye turned to Yun Xiao, not knowing how to explain this historical problem for a while, and thought for a long time before replying: "Flying Yuan is not as numerous as the Central Plains, but there are more complex and diverse aliens. In addition, the two tribes have had evil friendships for thousands of years, and they actually do not interact with each other. When the late emperor was in power, the four major realms had clear regulations prohibiting business with aliens, nor were they allowed to take in aliens. The school was different. Although it was a sect that predicted good fortune and good fortune through astrology, it would pass on the results of astrology to the people of all ethnic groups through spiritual butterflies. Because it is located on the edge of the forbidden area, the disciples in the sect were isolated from the world and would not learn powerful and dangerous martial arts like the White Sect, and they have always been peaceful."
He paused for a long time before sighing and responding to himself: "The plan for the extermination of the White Cult was deployed a long time ago, but for Butterfly Valley, it is actually only a short month from the Bipolar Conference proposal to the military cabinet implementation."
Yun Xiao held his breath and followed him to walk deep into Butterfly Valley. The quiet bamboo forest was blown by the wind. When the bamboo leaves collided, there was a pleasant sound of bells. He took Yun Xiao to the former altar with a familiar way. He looked at the white jade carving in front of him, lifelike butterfly that could fly with a flap of wings, and pointed to the past with a wry smile: "The treasure of Butterfly Valley's valley-stopping treasure "Eight Desert Glazed Stars" is placed on the wings of the butterfly. That thing is more accurate than the giant astronomical meter in Wanyou City. The real purpose of the late emperor's determination to wipe out Butterfly Valley is also for it."
Yun Xiao frowned and asked in confusion: "Why didn't you expect this disaster like that?"
"It should be the Earth-Binding Spirit that is causing trouble. After all, the great palace lord of the Star Sacrifice Palace at that time was transformed by the Earth-Binding Spirit." Xiao Qianye shook his head, but was not sure of his guess. He could only continue to say, "But no one can use the Eight Desolate Glazed Sixingyi after being sent to the Star Sacrifice Palace. Even though he had already moved all the books and collections of Butterfly Valley to study, unfortunately, there was no major progress until..."
He suddenly fell silent, as if there was something he didn't want to mention. He shook his head silently, and a confusion arose from the bottom of his heart, looking at the center of the altar with a long and complicated gaze.
A spirit butterfly came and landed on his arm, then shook violently for a moment, and flew away quickly.
Yun Xiao looked at Xiao Qianye with expressionless face and looked at the butterfly who stayed away from him. He could also know many things without saying that. When he returned to Feiyuan from Kunlun Mountain, his first battle was to attack Qianji Palace, the Bai Cultivation General Altar located on the Qixue Plateau in Gala. It was the great victory of this battle that made him become the new generation of military chief with the strong support of Prince Mingxi. In just one year later, the second important task he performed was to raid the Dongming Butterfly Valley and bring back the treasure Bahuang Glazed Sixingyi.
These two battles allowed a young man who returned from studying in the Central Plains to quickly gain a foothold in his country and fell into it step by step in the following years.
"I thought he was here to save people." Suddenly, Xiao Qianye spoke and broke Yun Xiao's trance, with some sarcasm and disdain, "Therefore he was here to kill people."
"He... do you think it's Gongsun Yan?" Yun Xiao asked, seeing a cold light suddenly appear in his eyes, and his fingers tightly said, "The White Sect is the most believed in by aliens. After the military pavilion wiped out the White Sect, a series of resistance broke out in the four major areas. Although the scattered and unorganized aliens quickly defeated, Butterfly Valley did not know how to avoid suspicion at this time, and even intended to assist the absconding aliens to hide in the deeper valley of confinement. This also gave the Star Palace, which coveted the Eight Desolate Glass Sixingyi, an excuse for justice. The crown prince missed the Double Pole Club due to illness. How could the ministers in the court who were changing their minds when they saw the wind could not see the thoughts of the superiors? So at the joint proposal of the left and right ministers, the late emperor personally approved the request and decided to eradicate the Butterfly Valley."
"The Bipolar Society was originally the highest-level meeting of the imperial capital, above the three pavilions and two palaces, and half of the seats were appointed by the late emperor. So when the order was passed to the military pavilion, I immediately set off and rushed over from Yudu. In order to prevent the Eight Desert Glass Starry to predict this operation in advance, I asked the three legions in the Eastern Ming territory to raid overnight. Although Butterfly Valley is proficient in astrology, most of the disciples are women. Compared to the attack on the White Sect a year ago, we suffered losses of soldiers and generals, this time it was simply effortless."
He stood up and walked towards the center of the altar, then stopped and turned to look at Yun Xiao: "In this position, Bipolar will ask all disciples to be executed on the spot. The charge is to assist the aliens in absconding place. They knelt here side by side, with more than 5,000 people begging for mercy."
Yun Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and the crisp sound of bamboo leaves came slowly, and there was no longer the crisp and pleasant sound of a moment ago. Instead, there was an indescribable sting, which made her whole body tremble. Xiao Qianye sneered silently and recalled the cold past in his heart: "My master once taught me to 'to help the world with compassion', but when the women who caused trouble for compassion knelt in front of me, I had no way to plead for them and disobey military orders. Not only would I die, but my elder brother would also be implicated."
There was a silence between the two, and the spirit butterfly fell on his shoulder again, as if he could peek at his heart. Xiao Qianye turned his head slightly, frowned and waved the spirit butterfly away, and said, "If the sick prince had not learned the news and ordered the deputy general of the capital, Mu Yun, with the prince Jin Ling, to come over to stop him, then the five thousand innocent women in Butterfly Valley would be killed by me in one day."
"The prince is the only son of the late emperor and the late empress. He has been favored since childhood. Anyway, the Eight Desert Glass Sixingyi has already obtained the remaining disciples who only know small magic are not too threatening. The late emperor simply turned a blind eye to the prince's behavior, but the two leading ministers were in trouble. After all, the suggestion to attack Butterfly Valley was proposed by them. The emperor and the prince suddenly made a completely opposite decision. The two old ministers always had to give Shuangji a brief explanation, so they found Gongsun Yan."
"When the order to withdraw troops was passed to Dongming, Gongsun Yan also came together. I knew he and the valley master were old acquaintances. He said he wanted to chat with Die Jing alone, so I agreed. As a result..." Xiao Qianye suddenly stopped, his eyes were terrifying, and he gritted his teeth and paused, "As a result, he killed Die Jing directly, cut off her head and took it back to the Shuangji Society. Since the culprit was punished, the remaining disciples let him go with just a little warning. The two ministers saved their face as they wished. The emperor and the crown prince also took a step back tacitly. This matter was never mentioned again."
"He killed the valley master?" Yun Xiao covered his mouth in disbelief and exclaimed, "But that underworld soul...the underworld soul recognizes the master. Whoever creates the underworld soul will always follow the master, and will not disobey and cannot leave."
Xiao Qianye nodded, a kind of confusion gradually covered his entire eyes, and murmured: "The basic foundation of Gongsun Yan's magic was originally from Bishop Butterfly Jing Valley. The obscure and cruel forbidden techniques behind him were taught by him by himself by his privately detaining the ancient books of Butterfly Valley. I don't know what happened. He killed Butterfly Jing and then made her his own soul with him. He kept saying that Butterfly Jing was his favorite person, and for this, he used drugs to poison A Xue to delay the marriage. Haha, I really don't understand, and I still don't understand. He fell in love with her after he killed her."
This question made Xiao Qianye’s heart tremble, and he remembered another person who was unwilling to think about it for a second, and then immediately shook his head and threw all his thoughts out.
Yun Xiao had already walked to the center of the altar. Now the Butterfly Valley is peaceful and peaceful. The wind swept through the bamboo leaves, and the spirit butterfly flew slowly. The thrilling things that were back then dissipated in the tunnel of time and no longer existed. She kicked her toes and let out a long sigh, and there was a hint of hesitation and asked to herself: "Did you realize that you fell in love with her after killing her? Since that's the case, you should be more free. The soul of the underworld is a soul bound by forbidden art and will never enter the cycle of reincarnation."
Xiao Qianye's voice was very calm, as if he was just narrating an obvious fact: "Feiyuan does not believe in reincarnation, death is the end of life."
Yun Xiao turned his face, he lowered his head and couldn't see clearly his expression, and his tone was faint. Her fingers gently wiped the other person's cheeks and smiled: "Then you must learn to let go, not only to relieve the other person, but also to yourself."
