Cheng Yan tried to ask: "One year during the Flower Festival, your father sent someone to look for you, but you refused to see you. Everyone in the world said that you had entered the Immortal Sect, so you gave up your emotions and never got involved with the world...
…But they didn’t know that at that time you were coming back from a fight with a ferocious crocodile. You were covered in wounds, and you didn’t want your father to see it…right or wrong?”
His Highness Qi's eyes were dark, and Cheng Yuan's words brought him back to the lonely and unbearable years of his youth. It seemed that during those years, he had only one goal, which was to improve his cultivation as soon as possible and be able to see his mother as soon as possible.<
/p>
"One year later, your father was seriously ill. You went back to visit him and gave him the elixir. Your father's illness was cured by the medicine, but you were punished by your master to shut yourself up in the back mountain and reflect on your mistakes."
Cheng Yan was puzzled: "I still don't know why your master punished you. You clearly refined those pills yourself."
"It's because he refined it himself." His Highness Qi stared at the reflection in the pond and said: "Tianyong Sect takes monster control as its own responsibility, and his disciples can only become the most powerful monster control masters in the world, rather than just a training camp.
Those who make alchemy..."
Cheng Yan suddenly realized that in the eyes of his strict master, only controlling monsters was the right path, and all others would be regarded as not doing their jobs properly.
Cheng Yan said: "Fortunately, you have not become a person like your master, otherwise you would be a rigid little old man..."
"Little old man?" His Highness Qi narrowed his eyes: "Are you talking about my Highness?"
Cheng Yuan smelled a hint of danger and hurriedly laughed and said: "I was wrong. Although your age is in the human race - but you are the young master of the demon world, and you have to be calculated according to the demon age. His Highness Qi is upright, young, and handsome.
Mao.
But by the way, how old are you, Your Highness Qi?
If what I said before happened to you, then, if my guess is correct, it all happened tens of thousands of years ago."
His Highness Qi glanced at her: "It's only a mere two thousand years."
"In other words, you are more than two thousand years old?" Cheng Yan glanced at him up and down: "You are still a baby in the Monster Clan, right?"
The lifespan of the demon clan is much longer than that of the human clan, and His Highness Qi is still a dragon. No wonder he would use the term "mere" to describe two thousand years.
Imagining His Highness Qi as Ari, Cheng Yan immediately became bold, reached out and patted his head and said: "Baby Qi, be good, my sister will protect you from now on!"
His Highness Qi suddenly trembled all over, and could not help but get goosebumps all over his body: "Stay away from me!"
"Haha, baby is shy, be good, sister will tell you a story."
"Get out!"
……
After coming out of Longtan, Cheng Yan went to the library in Yaoguang City.
The library here is divided into two parts, the inner and outer. Outsiders like Cheng Yuan can only borrow from the outer library, and they also need to pay a relatively high borrowing fee.
However, the collection of books inside is really rich, and Cheng Yan found books on the art of soul-stirring as he wished.
But she looked it up for most of the day, and there was no one that showed that soul-possession can allow people to see the other person's past.
The soul-stirring spell was cast by His Highness Qi on her. Even if she saw the memory, it was His Highness Qi who saw her. Why is the situation reversed in reality?
Is it possible that her golden finger does not allow His Highness Qi to see her memories?
However, her golden finger is Longtan. Does Longtan have nothing to do with soul-stirring?
Not finding the answer in the soul-stirring technique, Cheng Yan went to search for records about the retrospection formation.
She knew about the backtracking formation from reading a book called "Donngling Yi Zhi".
This formation is so powerful that it requires an extremely powerful formation master to set it up. Such a large formation has appeared in the Suiyang Sect in the southern border and the Xuanyan Palace in the East Ridge.
In addition, this backtracking phenomenon must occur naturally under special circumstances.
As for what happened?
Cheng Yan doesn't know.
Cheng Yuan searched all the classics he could find here, but he couldn't solve the doubts in his heart.
……
On this day, it rained heavily in Yaoguang City.
Cheng Yuan, Yan Chu and others were all enjoying the rain on the second floor of a teahouse. The sound of raindrops and the coolness brought by the wind made Cheng Yuan and others particularly happy. For those of them who have never seen rain all year round, the demon masters
Said, watching the rain is really a pleasure.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the rain curtain almost blocked their sight.
The teahouse waiter repeatedly reminded them to go inside to take shelter from the rain. After Yanchu refused again, the waiter had to close all the windows on the second floor and let them sit outside and watch the rain.
"At first glance, he is from the West Pole." The waiter shook his head.
"With such a heavy rain, Yaoguang City, which normally has all its defense formations open, opened its skylights." Yan Chu asked in confusion: "What's the point of this?"
"It is said that this is the rule for people coming from Yaoguang City. There is a way to bear the water that carries the sky and stirs up the turbid air of the world. I think they should follow this way." Ji Qiuyu held up a spiritual umbrella and blocked the splashing air.
Rain and fog.
Cheng Yan stared in the direction of the city gate. The guards there adhered to their duties and stood under the city gate to monitor the passing demon masters.
But I saw a white shadow flash past.
Cheng Yan didn't take it seriously at first, but he didn't expect that the white shadow actually passed through the city gate and entered the city without any of the guards noticing. Not only that, the protective formation also didn't respond.
Is it a demon?
Cheng Yan looked intently and saw the dragon's shadow fluttering. The next moment, His Highness Qi appeared opposite her.
A few people were surprised.
"Your Highness Qi!"
Wu Zhan was on guard and was about to attack, but Jiang Tu stopped him.
Jiang Tu's face turned pale: "You can't do anything."
"Who is he?" Wu Zhan asked.
"Elite disciple of the inner sect." Jiang Tu said and suddenly said in surprise: "Speaking of which, why is a genius like His Highness Qi not participating in the Honghu Competition?"
Cheng Yan stared at His Highness Qi, greatly surprised.
Obviously we had only met him in Longtan a few days ago, but Cheng Yan felt that something was different about His Highness Qi.
It’s momentum!
"Have you advanced to the golden elixir?"
Cheng Yan's words made Ji Qiuyu and others look over, with disbelief in their eyes.
"How long has it been since His Highness Qi started?" Jiang Tu's hands trembled: "Go crazy, Jin Dan?"
Ji Qiuyu asked Xuan Gui to test it out, and nodded: "Yes, Xiao Gui said this is the taste of the golden elixir stage."
Yanchu's eyes were full of fighting spirit: "I'm going back to practice!"
Not to mention her, Wu Zhan and Jiang Tu also left together.
Jiang Tu, in particular, felt dizzy: "Our lives are also our lives, please don't let such a genius come out to torture us."
Cheng Yan saw several people leaving, but it was difficult to explain that His Highness Qi was just recovering his cultivation, not the first breakthrough they imagined.
If there really was a demon master who broke through the golden elixir within two years of joining the profession, Cheng Yan would be in awe of him, if nothing else.
Ji Qiuyu walked away in the rain holding an umbrella, and then Cheng Yan said, "Why are you here?"
"The competition is about to begin. My Highness is here to watch the competition."
Will he be interested in the Honghu Competition?
"You're not here to watch my competition, are you?"
His Highness Qi raised his eyebrows slightly, and through the hazy rain and fog, Cheng Yan saw him nodding slightly.
