Chapter 512: Picture of the East Gate of the Great Elder
"What, do you want to be free?" Seeing the change in his expression, Yinyue instantly guessed what the other person was thinking.
"Don't you want to?" Xiaoqi asked directly.
"It's different." Yinyue smiled and continued,
"I'm just temporarily staying with him. In the future, I will leave the spiritual world directly and gain a free body. But you are different. As his spiritual pet and knowing so many of his secrets, you will never be able to leave in this life.
His control."
"It's a spiritual beast, not a spiritual pet!" Xiao Qi immediately retorted loudly and said angrily,
"That guy was simply taking advantage of others' danger. If I hadn't been seriously injured at that time, how could I have fallen into his hands."
"So, you hate him?" Silver Moon's bright eyes flashed.
"You don't need to tempt me. No matter what, I will never repay kindness with hatred." Xiao Qi still couldn't understand the meaning of the other party's words, so she snorted coldly and continued,
"In the past, I was plotted against me and my life was in danger. If he hadn't come to save me, I would have been dead long ago. How could I have recovered one day? In order to refine the Soul Restoration Pill, he even went to great lengths to find a way to nourish me.
Soul wood, and collecting a large number of rare resources, etc., of course I cannot forget these kindnesses one after another."
"That being the case, what are you still struggling with?" Yinyue looked slightly surprised.
"I was simply unhappy. I practiced well in the cave and never provoked anyone. However, an inexplicable disaster fell from the sky. Xilihutu was seriously injured and on the verge of death. When I woke up again, I had become someone else's soul.
Beast, would you be happy if it were you?" Xiao Qi sighed helplessly, with a look of depression in his eyes.
She also knew in her heart that the root cause of all this was still to blame that stupid monkey, who caused all the troubles. What was annoying was that the relationship between the two parties was very close, and the other party did it unintentionally, which made her hate it.
Can't get up.
I also have to blame myself for not living up to expectations. As a great demon in the transformation stage, facing human monks of the same level, not to mention winning, at least not losing, right?
In battles of the same level in the world of cultivation, monsters always have the upper hand. But she was defeated in just a few rounds, and the defeat was so complete that she almost lost her soul.
It's so useless, it really embarrasses the demon race compatriots. Of course, the human race monk must also be blamed for being too cunning, so that she can't even use 30% of her 100% strength.
Oops, the more I think about it, the angrier I get! My head is about to explode!
I simply didn't bother to think about it anymore, I bent my limbs in frustration and lay on the ground.
"Uh! What are you..." The other party's sudden look of being 'unlovable' made Yinyue's face filled with astonishment. You are a great demon in the transformation stage, you are not so fragile inside, right? Could it be that Yuan
Did God’s unsuccessful recovery from his injuries leave any sequelae?
"It's nothing, I just thought about it too many times and accepted my fate." Xiao Qi shook her head. Life and death depended on Mo Juren's thoughts. She had no choice but to resist. She could only accept the reality. Besides, that guy was nice to her and had better cultivation qualifications.
It's contrary to nature, and following the other party is not a bad idea.
After she transformed in the past, she had been living in seclusion in the Forbidden Sea and practicing hard. After a long period of time, she could no longer survive, which also made her distressed for a long time.
"You don't have to be so depressed. It might be an opportunity to meet Mo Juren in the past and become his spiritual beast." Yinyue straightened her expression and continued,
"You are of the Ice Deer clan, and your bloodline level is not high. It is only due to mutation or atavism that you have evolved into a seven-color spiritual deer, and you can achieve success. However, if you want to continue to evolve and improve, it will become increasingly difficult.
, you are really slim on your own."
"I know all this." Xiao Qi nodded slightly, agreeing with what the other party said.
"It's good that you can figure it out. Anyway, don't miss such a good opportunity." Both are from the demon clan. Yinyue hopes that the other party can grow up. She reminded her earnestly and then changed the subject.
"By the way, how are you recovering from your injuries? Can you transform?"
"It was basically fine a few years ago, but there are still some subtle stagnations that need to be slowly rested. As for the transformation, you can do it at any time, I just didn't want to be exposed before." As he said that, his whole body was instantly filled with seven-color brilliance.
, a figure of a girl with picturesque features and exquisite beauty emerged.
Such a delicate and unparalleled woman, even the equally beautiful Yin Yue couldn't help but admire her from the bottom of her heart, and there was a trace of unconcealable surprise in her eyes.
The girl looks young and is wearing a seven-color floral dress. She is as pure and flawless as an elf in a flower. Her crystal clear starry eyes blink slightly, revealing a faint smile.
"Can you please stop looking at me like that? I feel weird." The voice is like an oriole, soft and sweet, and the tactful tone makes people feel confused.
"If someone sees you like this, they might agree to return the natal card to you." Yin Yue teased with a slight smile.
"It would be better if he was really so easy to defeat." Xiao Qi still couldn't hear the other party's teasing intention, so she couldn't help but give him a blank look.
After nearly a hundred years of getting along bit by bit, after she regained consciousness, all the memories were summarized, which also allowed her to fully understand what kind of character Mo Juren was. Reason always prevailed, allowing him to act against principles for the sake of women.
The possibility of something happening is almost zero.
Furthermore, are there not many stunning women around that guy? His appearance is certainly good, but it is obviously unrealistic to say that his confidante must be better than him. At best, they all have their own characteristics.
He didn't talk about others, only that the silver moon in front of him, his appearance, and his temperament were all no longer inferior to his own. But what was the result? It wasn't that he didn't get the slightest trust from that person, and it didn't make a difference until he obediently became a weapon spirit.
?
Xiao Qi's heart is like a clear mirror at this point, so he will naturally not have any extravagant expectations. And even if he becomes the other party's spiritual beast, it is impossible to be foolproof. He must prove his worth, otherwise he will not have any extravagant expectations according to the other party's growth.
Speed will be 'abandoned' sooner or later in the future.
The abandonment here is not to give her freedom, but to be raised as a real pet like the two blood jade spiders. In that case, she would really become a spiritual pet, which would be more uncomfortable than death.
"What do you seem to be worried about?" Yinyue couldn't hide the change in the other person's expression, and she couldn't help but be curious.
"Not really. It's just that since I've been 'exposed', I can't pretend anymore. I'm a little confused about how to get along with each other and how to deal with myself in the future..." Xiao Qi didn't hide it, and then told some of her
The idea was expressed.
Yinyue couldn't help but be a little surprised. This girl looked weak and innocent. She didn't expect to see so far?
After thinking about it, it's normal. After all, he is still a great demon in the transformation stage. He has lived for an unknown number of years. Even though he has lived in seclusion all year round and lacks human cunning, he does not lack wisdom.
"Actually, it's not as complicated as you think. With your qualifications, as long as you practice hard in the future, you won't be surpassed by him too far. And based on my understanding of him, as his spiritual beast, you belong to me, as long as you
If there is a need for resources, he will never be stingy if he can do his best. This can be regarded as mutual achievement. With the help of the other party's abundant resources, your strength will inevitably grow rapidly, and you can always help the other party." Yinyue analyzed briefly.
After listening to it once, Xiao Qi’s original entanglement instantly dissipated, and her mood suddenly became brighter.
"Thank you!"
"You don't have to be so close to each other. We have to get along with each other all the time in the future. You and I should be like sisters." Yinyue smiled.
"Okay, I'll call you Sister Yinyue." The addition of an older sister made Xiaoqi, who had been accustomed to loneliness since she was a child, feel warm in her heart.
Yinyue was also very happy, but suddenly thought of something and asked again,
"More, is Xiaoqi your name? I will call you sister Xiaoqi from now on?"
"That's not true!" When Xiao Qi mentioned this, his expression suddenly froze and he explained angrily,
"My real name is Caiwei, and Xiaoqi is just that guy who was lazy and made random mistakes."
"Caiwei? What a good name." Yinyue nodded, but turned around and said,
"This name is really good, and it suits you very well. However, the title Xiaoqi is also not bad. It makes people feel very friendly, don't you think?"
"Yes...is there any?" Xiao Qi is not stupid, and naturally has her own judgment. However, the pride in her heart makes her instinctively unconvinced as her name comes from him.
"Okay, the name is just a code name, don't worry about it so much." Yinyue probably guessed what the other person was thinking, and couldn't help laughing. Although this girl is smart, she still has a hint of coquettishness, which makes people laugh.
With the reason to reluctantly convince herself, Xiaoqi naturally no longer dwells on the matter. In fact, after being called this name for so many years, she has long been used to it.
……
Qiling Peak
Different from the past, there is no thick green mist around the peak today. It is obvious that the Biluo Formation has been closed for a long time. Dozens of figures have already gathered in front of the three thatched houses on the top of the peak.
These are all core-forming and Nascent Soul powerhouses, the true core of the sect, and they are far from all of them. Some are traveling abroad, including top monks with missions, or many families in Lingfeng Kingdom, etc., in order to
Rather than leaving the rear empty and giving the enemy an opportunity to attack, most of them will not return. This is also a decision that Patriarch Xuan Yuan and Dongmen Tu made very early on.
Mo Juren and Han Yunzhi flew to the ground, and several familiar figures came into view instantly, including Han Zhuo, the Chiling Patriarch, and a familiar figure, it was Gu Ying who had just entered the Nascent Soul stage.
.
The three of them are considered a small group, including some of the disciples at the Dan Formation stage behind them, and they are slightly separated from other Nascent Soul stage monks. When they saw Mo Juren and Han Yunzhi, they all nodded in greeting.
The two of them nodded slightly in response, and then joined in together. They didn't speak during the whole process, they just stood there quietly and waited.
After about a moment, the simple wooden door of the thatched house slowly opened, and a figure slowly walked out.
This person was clearly Feng Ziling, the leader of the Wanling Merchant Alliance. He glanced at everyone, and then announced with a long sigh that the ancestor Xuanyuan had passed away.
As a monk, it is naturally impossible to cry like ordinary people. However, this does not prevent everyone from respecting and mourning the great elder, and everyone showed regret for a while.
"How to deal with senior brother Feng's funeral affairs, junior brother might as well give you a charter. As long as we can do our best, the sect will do its best to satisfy you." After taking a look at Feng Ziling, Dongmen Tu immediately promised.
"Senior brother Dongmen accepted his kindness. However, my brother did not like to be extravagant during his lifetime, and he specifically left an explanation before his death. He must not make any fuss about his funeral. All he had to do was to bring him back to the Feng family and let him return to his roots.
”
"This..." Dongmen Tu was stunned when he heard what the other party said. He naturally knew Senior Brother Feng's hard-working and simple character, but as the elder of the sect, it was a bit unreasonable to have such a shabby background.<
/p>
Thinking of this, he once again spoke to persuade, and other Nascent Soul stage elders behind him also expressed their opinions that they should not be so hasty. However, Feng Ziling's attitude was extremely firm and he always disagreed.
So, everyone doesn’t know what to do?
It is true that Patriarch Xuanyuan is the eldest elder of the sect, but he is also a member of the Feng family. Naturally, the only one who can really make the decision is the Feng family. In the end, everyone is an outsider after all, and it is impossible to overstep his authority.
After some attempts to persuade them to no avail, everyone had no choice but to accept the reality. Feng Ziling did not waste any time. He called several members of the Feng family into the thatched house and walked out in a flash, holding a black gold coffin high.
"Thank you for coming to visit, fellow Taoists. Brother Feng and the Feng family are extremely grateful." Feng Ziling clasped his fists again, and then together with several other clan members, he carried the black gold coffin and left through the air.
The yard suddenly became quiet, and all eyes were focused on Dongmen Tu.
As the saying goes, Taoists take their tea to cool off. This is true in the secular world, and it is even more true in the more realistic world of cultivation. With the death of Patriarch Xuanyuan, the power structure of the sect will also undergo huge changes.
The first to bear the brunt is the Feng family, which was originally ranked first in the sect and will instantly fall. Fortunately, there is still Feng Ziling, a monk in the early stage of Nascent Soul, otherwise it will be directly reduced to a second-rate family.
This is the world of cultivation, where strength is the foundation, and everything else is false. Even if everyone respects Patriarch Xuanyuan, it will not affect anything. The interests of the family are above all else.
It is an unchangeable fact that Dongmen Tu will become the new elder of the Yuling Sect. Correspondingly, the Dongmen family will replace the Feng family on the throne of the first family.
It involves more than just a name, but also involves a huge and complex redistribution of interests.
The same is true for other families. Although they cannot say it clearly, they all understand it tacitly. I am afraid that the sect will not be too peaceful for a long time.
This requires considering Dongmen Tu’s ability. In addition to his own sufficient strength, he must also have strong skills to balance the different needs of the major families.
This is also the issue that Patriarch Xuanyuan has been worried about before. External threats are only caused by scabies. Only internal stability is the most important. This must not cause chaos and give other sects of the Demonic Path an opportunity.
As the successor, Dongmen Tu is definitely not bad in terms of vision and wisdom. He naturally understands the truth. As for what he will do in the future, we can only wait and see.
