Next, he briefly told Lord Jiyue about the conflict between the Lord of the Hundred Skeletons and the Evil Envoy of Greed outside their sight. In the letter sent to him by the Lord of the Skeletons, he not only learned about that encounter
, and also collected fragmentary information through this friend. For example, the gap between the puppets in Xian Cai's hands and the works of the Wuyong family, and the similarities between the two regardless of the difference in strength. Finally, Master Lintian concluded:
"Even if the connection between that group of puppets and the Wuyong clan is not close enough to follow the clues, I can at least understand and deduce them based on similar skills. Next, I plan to meet the evil envoy."
"I wish you good luck." Mr. Jiyue said sincerely. "You are worthy of being able to track down this far and have such perseverance and courage. But is it not too risky for you to act alone?"
"Even if you take risks, you are not completely unsure, let alone be afraid of it." Master Lin Tian said cautiously, "I also have a superficial understanding of Greed and know that she is eager for jewelry, so I am looking for a way to find a comrade to borrow one from her.
The magic weapon sought.”
"Which comrade?"
Master Lintian raised his eyebrows and organized his words, trying to give a pertinent summary.
"He was a fellow practitioner with my Master Dan Ning, but...that person was different from Master Dan Ning. How can I put it, in comparison, Master Dan Ning practiced with a pure heart and few desires, and that person had a pure mind?
Although he can’t be said to have evil intentions, his motives are even more impure. I’m not allowed to make any judgments. The final result is that the person fell into the devil’s path and is now neither a fairy nor a ghost, nor can he be called a human being.”
"It turns out..." Lord Jiyue suddenly realized, "That person is not a difficult person to talk to."
"Well, so I want to give it a try."
"Bon Voyage."
They exchanged a few words at the end. It is true that Master Lintian did not come specifically to visit, he was just passing by for a rest, and quickly turned around and left. Lord Jiyue pretended to scold him, and Shanhai laughed and scolded him a few times. The surroundings returned to silence, except for those nearby.
Occasionally, the tree crowns rub against each other due to a gust of breeze, making a swishing sound. In the distant mountains, an eagle passes by and lets out a loud and distant cry.
Not long after Shanhai disappeared, Lord Jiyue suddenly spoke to the empty crowd:
"How long are you going to listen?"
As soon as he finished speaking, another person came out and appeared under his sight. She muttered, as if she was eager to explain something, but she had too much to say, and it was stuck in her throat.
"Master Lintian can't hear your footsteps...but I can."
Mr. Jiyue said calmly, his tone was not harsh, but very polite. There was a hint of alienation in this politeness.
"I'm the only one." Ye Xuici seemed to be stung, and defended with slight fear. He couldn't help but move his feet slightly, and took a step closer to Lord Jiyue. "Don't worry, I'm here to explore the way.
, look for Yun Wai Jing, it is right there..."
"What have you been doing recently? Why are you looking for this treasure? By the way, isn't it in Xueyan Valley? You have been there."
Lord Jiyue asked softly, interrupting her next words. It was hard to tell whether he didn't care or whether he did it intentionally. In order to maintain a sense of proportion, he did not listen to the important information coming out of the other party's mouth.
"There is no cloud mirror in Xueyan Valley. I am still helping my friend from before. He has been involved in affairs recently, so I will inquire about it for them first."
Ye Xuici took a deep breath and spoke as calmly as possible, still staring at Jiyue Jun eagerly. The latter responded vaguely without comment. He didn't know what she was doing, but he had no interest in finding out.
Despite her gentle gesture, Jiyue Jun was obviously not in a good mood. Ye Xuici was just the opposite. She hesitated for a while, looked at Jiyue Jun, and said softly:
"I...have never had the opportunity to solemnly express my gratitude to you. Back then, it was thanks to you that I..."
"No, I'm not doing it for your gratitude." Mr. Jiyue spoke calmly, but cut off her next words irresistibly, "You live a good life and do good deeds, that is the greatest gratitude you can give me."
"But now I am a monster and an evil messenger." Ye Xuici's breathing seemed to have become cautious, but his tone was difficult to control, "Do you think... I can still look back?"
"It all depends on man."
When he said such words, Lord Jiyue didn't have any confidence. Forget it, at any rate, there is no fault in this sentence, and it sounds good in the scene.
As he thought this in his mind, Ye Xuici seemed to be greatly inspired and let out a trembling sigh.
"Only you... would say such words to me. Just like back then, you were the only one with such a heart and kind deeds."
Having said this, she hesitated for a moment, planning her next words.
"But... I never know why? I know that the six realms of impermanence have heavy responsibilities and many affairs, and it is impossible to save everyone. At that time, why did you come... to save me?"
She looked at Lord Jiyue so eagerly, waiting for an answer that might be imagined or unexpected. No matter what it was, it must be able to explain that there was something special about herself that could be revealed among all living beings.
Create a unique self. It can prove to her that her life today does have a different kind of brilliance and is not just a dream.
Lord Jiyue was silent. He did not answer directly.
"Listen to me telling a story."
"What? Okay, okay, you say."
"You must have seen the man just now. He is now called Master Lintian and is respected by all people. But at the beginning, he was just a young man in his twenties. Like many people, he was busy, coming and going
Come and go. Although he has not accomplished anything, he is not a chosen one." Lord Jiyue turned around and faced the rolling hills again. He was silent for a while, and then continued: "But what I want to say
, not his story – but mine.”
When he was still young, Lord Jiyue had two apprentices. One of those two apprentices was named Yun Qingxian and the other was named Yun Qingzhan. One could not hear, and the other could not speak.
The sisters depended on each other and supported each other. Even though they were forced to become deaf and mute, they never gave up on each other. They once served in the Zuojinmen, but due to the failure of a mission, they were in a difficult situation and became homeless.
By chance, they met Lord Jiyue at that time. He persuaded them to give up their career in Zuojinmen and join his sect. He kept his promise and protected them. He taught them their skills and helped them improve their strength.
For a period of time, like all people in the world who find good teachers and friends, they got along harmoniously and happily, almost without any worries.
But Mr. Jiyue knows very well that things in the world have always been complicated and dangers are everywhere.
In that life, Yun Qingzhan was lucky. After going through ups and downs and bloody storms, not only did his sister always accompany him, his master taught and protected him, but he also met his true love. They fell in love with each other and soon became husband and wife.
Even happy events were arranged by Lord Jiyue herself. Once upon a time, everyone thought she had achieved a lifetime of happiness.
Yun Qingzhan was also unfortunate.
When she was working for the Zuojin Clan, she made many enemies. Those who died at her hands had relatives who were still alive and wanted to avenge the blood. At that time, the Zuojin Clan was not under the jurisdiction of Kanna Wujun and was ruthless.
, it is only natural that she will not be protected by such an organization after leaving the Zuojin Sect. Even if the Zuojinmen regards this as another transaction and betrays her whereabouts, it will not cause her death.
People are surprised.
No matter what the reason was, the tragedy happened. Not long after her wedding, the enemy found them...
When Jiyuejun and Yun Qingxian arrived, all they were left with were Qingzhan and the bodies of her loved ones. Yunqingxian was filled with hatred, and although Jiyuejun was also sad about it, he tried his best to stop her, not wanting her to
Let's continue to extend this hatred and revenge. After all, it is true that they have killed other people's relatives. If they continue to retaliate against each other, they will never have peace.
Yun Qingxian was naturally furious. She had a big fight with Lord Jiyue and left angrily.
Later, Mr. Jiyue heard that she had avenged her sisters. For the rest of her life, she was always alone. She didn’t know whether she had not met her beloved, or because she had met her, she did not dare to bring disaster to him.
.
"In the end, she died alone, which can be considered a blessing. After that, I never accepted another apprentice."
After telling this story, Lord Jiyue's expression also turned cold. He stared at the stunned Ye Xuici, word for word:
"And you... why would I save you? The reason is this - you are the reincarnation of Yun Qingzhan."
At this moment, Ye Xuici felt like thunder was pounding in his ears, and he almost forgot to breathe for a moment. But Lord Jiyue continued:
"I failed to protect her, and I couldn't avenge her. My debt to her can never be repaid. So, many years after she passed away, I saved her reincarnation, which is you."
His words seemed to have an attack power that Ye Xuici could not bear. Following his words, she staggered back half a step. She trembled slightly, shook her head slightly, and looked at Lord Jiyue in disbelief.
"This is the truth you want. So, you don't have to be overly grateful, let alone think about how to thank me." Lord Jiyue sighed, "From now on, you and I will still be on the same page, don't do this again.
See you."
"I don't accept it, this is not what I want...!"
"Then what kind of answer do you want? Isn't it good to be like this?"
"So what you see in me is just the shadow of others?" Ye Xuici straightened his spine and asked in a trembling voice, "I...actually don't expect that. You reached out to help me because of how special I am. I
I don’t want you to really see me in your eyes, but I can’t accept it...I can’t accept it, why is it like this?
Such a reason! Everything I own is stolen, only this life belongs to me. And you, you are the most unique glory in this life, which makes me still miss you. But in fact...
In fact, even you, even you whom I value, what you see are not me at all."
"No matter what the reason is, you have been helped. Whether it is because of you or your previous life, there is no difference." Lord Jiyue frowned.
Ye Xuici just shook his head. She walked back and forth for a few steps, then turned to Lord Jiyue:
"Even if I am what I am today - it's all because of you!"
Mr. Jiyue was a little confused at first.
"That was your own choice, and I never interfered in any way?"
"This is all your own opinion and has nothing to do with me! I won't allow you to leave until you explain these things clearly!"
She said fiercely. Mr. Jiyue only felt a terrible headache.
