Chapter 32: Welcome to the Palace of Reincarnation
Wang Tianzong did not express his position in the end.
The luck of Zhongzhou is related to the overall situation of the Wang family in Beihai.
He chose to remain silent.
Silence is often more powerful than assurance.
Wang Tianzong looked intently at the fruit plate placed on the marble table in front of him.
The fruits in the fruit plate are very fresh.
A drop of crystal water dripped down the grapes in the fruit plate.
There were ripples in the air.
Wang Tianzong's figure gradually faded and finally disappeared.
Wang Xiaoyao's body took two steps forward.
He looked at the gray-faced Xuan Xuanzi with complicated eyes.
The dragon veins were reunited, and Li Tianlan carried the dragon veins. Wang Shengxiao lost the opportunity, and the dragon veins were withdrawn, occupying Lin'an Gushan and killing Li Honghe.
He thought about the conversation between Xuan Xuanzi and his elder brother.
He has many questions to ask.
But in the end he didn't speak.
Xuan Xuanzi sat numbly in the pavilion. In a short period of time, he was sweating all over his body, and the sweat soaked through his robes. This master of metaphysics, who became more and more important in Zhongzhou after the death of Master Wuwei, looked extremely weak.
He pinched a grape with an expressionless expression.
The peeling hands were visibly shaking.
When he put the fresh fruit flesh into his mouth, it felt sour and sweet.
Xuan Xuanzi looked down at his trembling hands, his eyes filled with exhaustion and weariness.
In my decades-long career in metaphysics, from a charlatan to a great master, I have been beaten, scolded and driven away, respected, feared and worshiped. It has been a lifetime of ups and downs, I have encountered unimaginable poverty, and I have also enjoyed it.
Live in dazzling luxury.
Xuan Xuanzi suddenly laughed at himself.
He has helped many people in his life, but it seems that he has never accomplished anything he really wanted to do.
Because there is only one thing he wants to do.
Xuan Xuanzi's eyes were blank, and after his luck had completely dissipated, he looked like a dying old man, lonely and lonely.
At this moment, he suddenly thought of the beginning of the ups and downs of his life.
He has a daughter...
The daughter buried by his ambition.
In the early summer morning, the Dibing Mountain is warm, and the fragrance of flowers permeates the mountains and plains.
Xuan Xuanzi suddenly began to miss the cold wind and snow back then.
He breathed hard, forced his weak and tired body to stand up, and whispered: "Go down the mountain."
"I send you."
Wang Xiaoyao spoke at the right time.
The two walked out of the pavilion.
Walking on the stone path full of flowers.
The flowers in the mountains are in full bloom, and the path winds down among the flowers and grass. In the quiet morning, there are colorful purples and reds everywhere.
Xuan Xuanzi's body was swaying and he staggered downwards.
Wang Xiaoyao frowned, and finally couldn't help but said: "Taoist Master, your current condition is not good, how about you rest on the mountain for two days?"
He has a really good relationship with Xuan Xuanzi, and he really cares about him now.
It's just that Xuan Xuanzi now wants to see the wind and snow.
He shook his head and said softly: "It's okay."
"You look like this..."
Wang Xiaoyao's brows furrowed even more.
"how?"
Xuan Xuanzi looked at Wang Xiaoyao with a smile and said gently: "Are you afraid that I will die?"
Wang Xiaoyao smiled bitterly.
Even though Xuan Xuanzi has lost his fortune for many years, he is still the master of metaphysics in Central Continent. Such a figure cannot be inferred by common sense, but his current state is indeed worrying.
"I won't die."
Xuan Xuanzi said.
His eyes were firm.
He only wants to do one thing, but he has accomplished nothing in this life. He neither dares to die nor can he die.
Master Wuwei could not die back then, but he had to die.
But Xuan Xuanzi didn't mind surviving.
Among the flowers all over the mountain, a patch of white snow suddenly appeared in front of the stone path.
That is the purest color.
Like pure snow that has never been trampled by anyone.
Xuan Xuanzi looked at the white flowers in front of him.
White flowers fell to the ground one by one in the morning breeze.
The wind is getting stronger.
The white petals began to spin and fly in the wind, like falling snow.
Xuan Xuanzi looked at it quietly and suddenly said: "What kind of flower is this?"
"This is Snow Eagle."
Wang Xiaoyao smiled and said: "The new varieties that my sister-in-law cultivated in the past few years only bloom in spring. After early summer, they all fade away."
Snow Eagle...
Xuan Xuanzi looked at the petals flying in the air. He had never heard of the name of this flower, but it was indeed very beautiful.
"Xia Zhi is a thoughtful person."
Xuan Xuanzi said softly.
Wang Xiaoyao smiled and said nothing more.
The two of them walked down in a sea of white flowers, as if they were walking on a snow-capped mountain.
The white petals are blowing and falling in the wind, constantly rising and falling.
A faint fragrance gradually wafted into the air.
The aroma is subtle and profound.
Wang Xiaoyao smelled this strange smell and wondered if his sister-in-law had improved Snow Eagle's genetic composition again.
Xuan Xuanzi looked deeply at the flowers and plants in front of him.
The snow eagles spread over a large area. No matter whether they are moving forward or backward, they are surrounded by a field of snow-white petals fluttering, with an unchanging beauty.
The environment is disturbing.
Xuan Xuanzi's eyes gradually became trance-like in the unchanging scenery.
The petals are disappearing.
The fragrance is getting stronger.
There was only wind and snow in front of him.
The wind and snow are cold and cold.
Xuan Xuanzi subconsciously wrapped his Taoist robe tightly around him.
A butterfly appeared before his eyes.
Xuan Xuanzi suddenly came back to his senses. Looking at the white flowers around him, he realized that he was on Emperor Bing Mountain. The white flowers around him were just flowers after all.
Butterflies fluttered and flapped their wings in front of Xuan Xuanzi, and they were colorful.
Xuan Xuanzi stopped and looked quietly at the butterflies flying in front of him.
It's so free and carefree.
The butterfly kept hovering in front of Xuan Xuanzi. Xuan Xuanzi could see its wings and even the butterfly's small eyes.
Those eyes were very deep, as if they were looking at him.
Wang Xiaoyao also stopped.
He didn't see the butterfly.
He just looked ahead.
At the end of Snow Eagle less than a hundred meters ahead, there stood a woman in white.
She is quiet and ethereal, as if she is one with the endless snow eagles.
Several figures stood beside her, carefully guarding her and not emitting any aura.
Wang Xiaoyao was not surprised, he felt as if he had seen a ghost in the daytime.
He didn't know how the other party appeared here without being discovered. This was a supernatural event that was even scarier than seeing a ghost.
The butterfly flew away.
Disappearing in the petals falling like snow.
Xuan Xuanzi, who didn't know how long he paused, felt lost. He laughed to himself and subconsciously took a step forward.
The winding stone path suddenly turned into an abyss.
Time seems to have been fast-forwarded countless times.
The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying high in the sky, and the sun is rising continuously.
The temperature started to get scorching hot, then dry.
The entire scorching sun seemed to be pushed by human hands from the east to the west.
Dusk fell completely.
Xuan Xuanzi took one step in the air and fell suddenly.
Twilight shrouded the abyss, and there was an extremely quiet darkness everywhere.
Xuan Xuanzi's heart kept sinking along with his body.
He didn't think about what was wrong with this. The chaotic time and the abyss that shouldn't have appeared were filtered subconsciously in his mind.
In his heart was only the most instinctive fear of death.
Xuan Xuanzi kept struggling in the abyss. He wanted to shout, but in the extreme darkness and silence, no sound could be made at all.
The body fell uncontrollably downwards.
It's like falling straight from the human world to hell with no end.
Suddenly there was the sound of waves all around.
The majestic sound of the waves swept over everything.
Xuan Xuanzi still didn't feel anything was wrong.
He remembered that he was in the Imperial Army Mountain, and there was the sea at the foot of the Imperial Army Mountain.
The roaring waves were deafening.
A light suddenly lit up in the endless darkness above.
The light occupied all of Xuan Xuanzi's field of vision. Xuan Xuanzi groaned and his body fell hard to the ground.
The dark ground is like the soft sea surface.
The grass and flowers were vivid in the lonely light of the sky, but the whole ground was rolling like waves.
Xuan Xuanzi looked around.
All the light fell on him.
Vaguely, he only felt that he was standing on the only small piece of land in the darkness.
The almost boiling sound of the tide occupied all his hearing.
Xuan Xuanzi laughed.
As if he was congratulating himself on surviving the disaster, he smiled extremely happily.
"Why is the Taoist priest happy?"
A clear voice suddenly sounded.
The sound was very soft, but it spread throughout the sky in an instant, and even the roaring tide was suppressed in an instant.
Echoes echoed high in the sky.
"Why rejoice..."
"Why rejoice..."
"joy..."
The light in the sky gradually dissipated with the sound.
Xuan Xuanzi finally saw the surrounding scene clearly.
There is light in the darkness.
There is heaven and earth.
The sky glowed an eerie red.
Scarlet blood-red light illuminated the sea below.
The sea water was pitch black, flowing in countless huge whirlpools.
The area he was on was about ten square meters of ground.
The ground is really too small.
Looking around, everything is surrounded by dark water that can swallow everything, and you can't see the edge at all.
A few dark beads stood in the seawater, as if they reached the sky. The scene looked very clear, but it was extremely distant.
"Who are you?"
Xuan Xuanzi looked ahead.
In sight is a woman wearing a white dress.
The light is too dark here.
She was standing in a backlit place. Xuan Xuanzi felt that she looked familiar, but was not sure of her identity.
The woman did not answer Xuan Xuanzi's question.
She just stared at him quietly.
Xuan Xuanzi saw a pair of deep and bright eyes.
Those eyes are calm and cold, like the deep stars.
"What is the identity of Taoist Priest? Why are you in such a miserable state today?"
There seemed to be a hint of smile in the woman's voice, and she whispered: "It really looks like an old dog that is dying."
Xuan Xuanzi fell silent.
She was silent for a long time before she asked uncertainly: "You want to kill me?"
He thought it was ridiculous.
With his ability, anyone who finds him will not want to kill him.
Did we encounter an exception today?
"if not?"
The woman's voice became softer and softer, like a dark wind blowing from the sky: "Don't you want to die?"
Xuan Xuanzi squinted his eyes and looked at the woman in the darkness.
He looked more and more familiar.
"More than twenty years ago, after Kuangtu Li rebelled against the country, you have been planning something. Over the years, you have had three opportunities. The first time was sixteen years ago, but it was destroyed by some uninterruptible factors from the outside world. The second time was
Ten years ago, you felt unsure, hesitated, and missed the opportunity. The third time was about four years ago, and I ruined it."
The woman's tone was indifferent: "The Dragon Vein of Zhongzhou is your fourth chance. Taoist Master, do you really care about the Dragon Vein? You clearly know that the Wang family in Beihai is extremely lucky and things will turn to the extreme. They cannot carry the Dragon Vein at all, but you have always been missing these years.
The Beihai Wang family manipulated their luck and created false impressions, and in the end you deceived Wang Tianzong and Zhongzhou, and now you are regarded as the chief metaphysics master of the Beihai Wang family."
"Do you care about dragon veins?"
The woman said coldly: "It's all a pretense! You have always wanted to provoke a war between the Wang family and the Li family in Beihai. Even if the Li family is now at its end, you don't want to let them go. Don't you deserve to die?"
Xuan Xuanzi's body instantly became stiff.
As if the biggest secret in his heart had been revealed, his breathing suddenly became rapid.
He stared at the exquisite figure in the dim light and said ferociously: "Who are you?!"
"Does it matter?"
The woman said coldly.
Xuan Xuanzi took a deep breath, and under the bloody sky, he laughed maniacally: "Yes, that's not important. What's important is that you seem to have an insight into my plan? In other words, my plan was ruined by you again, right?"
Isn’t that right? I deserve to die. Doesn’t Li deserve to die? Doesn’t Li Tianlan deserve to die? No, they all deserve to die too!”
"I will find an opportunity to completely destroy them. If I can survive this time, when Wang Tianzong kills Li Honghe, I will personally extract the dragon veins from Li Tianlan! I will use the dragon veins to completely destroy the luck of the Wang family in Beihai, haha
, Haha, damn it! Damn it!"
The woman took two steps forward.
"You don't recognize Tianlan?"
she asked softly.
"Why should I recognize him?"
Xuan Xuanzi had a cold face.
He really doesn't like Li Tianlan.
When he met Li Tianlan for the first time in Huating, Xuan Xuanzi saw too much ambition in his calm eyes.
It was a desire that was suppressed to the extreme, too crazy and passionate.
That's ambition that can ruin everything.
Xuan Xuanzi would not admit that he saw the shadow of himself in those eyes.
He just doesn't like Li Tianlan.
"Does this matter have anything to do with you?"
the woman suddenly asked.
Xuan Xuanzi was stunned.
"No matter what, he must die."
Xuan Xuanzi said.
"You hate Mrs. Li."
The woman spoke slowly but surely.
"You seem to know a lot of things."
Xuan Xuanzi looked at the other party with cold eyes: "Then you should also know that Li's child back then was a girl! That child died in infancy, and where did Li Tianlan appear as a bastard?! Is Kuangtu Li's illegitimate child?
Illegitimate child?!"
The woman was silent.
She seemed to be thinking about something.
The killing intent in the air quietly began to subside.
The bloody light in the sky gradually faded and darkness returned.
The angry sea is no longer boiling.
The ground under Xuan Xuanzi's feet expanded crazily, from about ten meters to over a thousand meters in an instant, like a small island.
"Answer me a question."
The woman's voice echoed between heaven and earth: "Is it the Li family that you hate most? Or the Kunlun City?"
Xuan Xuanzi's expression changed drastically.
Having lost all his luck, he was in the weakest and most dazed state today. At this moment, his heart was on the verge of collapse.
"What on earth do you know?!"
He looked at the woman who had distanced herself from him as the ground beneath his feet expanded, and his tone was furious.
"I know your surname is Li."
The woman said softly: "You want to provoke a war between the Beihai Wang family and the Li family. There will be no suspense in this war, but Li Honghe's current state is too dangerous. If the Beihai Wang family takes action, the Human Emperor will not be able to accumulate energy.
Under such circumstances, the Beihai Wang family will definitely suffer heavy losses, and the Li family will also be completely destroyed. Your metaphysics has already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. When you use the dragon vein to smooth out the fate of the Beihai Wang family, in less than twenty years, the Beihai Wang family will be
Disappeared."
"By then, Central Continent will be the only one in Kunlun City."
"A very good layout. Over the years, who would have thought that the metaphysics master of the Wang family in Beihai is actually from Kunlun City? No, I was wrong. This should be a deal between you and Kunlun City, right?"
Xuan Xuanzi fell to the ground, despairing of all thoughts.
"You don't care about anything. You don't care about dragon veins, you don't care about yourself, you don't even care about Zhongzhou. All you care about is your daughter. What you gave up many years ago for your so-called ambition, and now you are desperately trying to get it back. It's really stupid."
The woman walked over slowly from a distance and commented unceremoniously.
"I am indeed stupid."
Xuan Xuanzi smiled wryly at himself: "Should I regret that..."
"So, to answer my question, do you hate Kunlun City more? Or do you hate the Li family more?"
the woman asked slowly.
"Does it make sense?"
Xuanxuanzi said numbly: "If I can survive, the Li family will be destroyed."
"Of course it makes sense. I actually don't mind if you destroy the Li family. I can even help you deal with Kunlun City."
The woman said softly.
This sentence seems to directly express her position.
Xuan Xuanzi suddenly raised his head: "Are you from the Wang family in Beihai? Are you Xia Zhi?"
"We met in Lin'an."
The woman finally walked up to Xuan Xuanzi and said, "My surname is Qin."
A cold, dreamlike face appeared in Xuan Xuanzi's sight, flawless and noble with a touch of majesty.
"It's you..."
Xuan Xuanzi's tone was very low and somewhat unbelievable: "It's you...you obviously don't understand martial arts..."
"This is not martial arts."
Qin Wei said in a white voice: "This is the realm of the spirit."
"boom!"
Following her words, the world suddenly collapsed.
The red sky, which had almost completely faded, opened countless cracks in an instant, and the sky poured down, and the endless deep sea around it seemed to be suppressed by invisible pressure for an instant.
The ground is rising.
The entire sea area is sinking continuously, thousands of meters, tens of thousands of meters.
An abyss formed between the ground and the sea.
The sky is still breaking.
Xuan Xuanzi finally realized that something was wrong. Looking at this unrealistic scene, he suddenly realized that he was not at the Imperial Arms Mountain at all.
"where am I?"
he asked.
"Imperial Soldier Mountain."
Qin Weibai's answer was a little unexpected.
Xuan Xuanzi suddenly thought of something. He looked at Qin Weibai with complicated eyes: "Hypnosis?"
Qin Weibai remained calm and silent.
Xuan Xuanzi understood it completely, and he remembered the butterfly he saw not long ago.
Xuan Xuanzi suddenly felt a little ridiculous. He pointed at the shattering scene around him: "So, these are all fake? What I saw were all scenes created by hypnosis?"
"But you are real."
Qin Weibai said calmly, looking at the sinking deep sea: "If you jump from here, you will not wake up during the fall. When you really fall into the deep sea, you will fall into a state of brain death.
No one can detect the cause of your death."
Xuan Xuanzi looked at Qin Weibai with a complicated expression.
"Amazing skills."
He said softly.
Hypnosis has always been Li's special skill, but this was the first time Xuan Xuanzi had heard of hypnosis being used to such an extent.
This field is too mysterious, even no less than martial arts.
Only now did he understand why Qin Weibai became the number two figure in the Reincarnation Palace.
"Excellent."
Qin Weibai said lightly.
"Who taught you hypnosis?"
Xuan Xuanzi asked curiously: "Li Kuangtu? No, the time is wrong. Is that Li Honghe?"
Qin Weibai glanced at him.
She waved her hand.
There was light in the sky.
Xuan Xuanzi's vision returned to normal.
"I said, I don't mind if you destroy the Li family."
Qin Weibai said: "Because I hate them too."
"But I heard that you are Li Tianlan's woman."
Xuan Xuanzi looked at Qin Weibai.
The lines on Qin Wei's white face suddenly softened, and he said softly: "So you can deal with the Li family, you can deal with Kunlun City, you can deal with the Wang family of Beihai. These have nothing to do with me. All you need to do is support Tianlan."
"I was going to kill you today. You have many secrets that I know and some that I don't know. But here, I can know everything. I will get everything from you and then make your death ugly."
Qin Weibai said softly: "But I suddenly realized that keeping you alive seems to be a good choice."
"I am alive to help the Li family's heir?"
Xuan Xuanzi sneered.
"You are helping me."
Qin Weibai looked into Xuan Xuanzi's eyes.
"What exactly do you want?"
Xuan Xuanzi was full of doubts in his heart. He was a master of metaphysics, but he did not know everything.
On the surface, Qin Weibai's stance has always been simple.
But only when you have real contact will you find out how complicated the other person's thoughts are.
"Didn't you once say that I, a witch, is a disaster to the country?"
Qin Weibai smiled lightly: "I just want a chaotic world. I need a new era after extreme chaos. The current dark world is too peaceful."
Xuan Xuanzi looked at Qin Weibai dumbfounded, as if he was looking at a madman.
The dark world is too peaceful?
In the past few years, except for the year after the decisive battle in Tiandu, when has the dark world been peaceful in the past two years?
It's all a mess.
"The Taoist Priest won't care about this anyway."
Qin Weibai said: "You yourself know the possibility of a successful transaction between you and Kunlun City. In that case, why not help me? You give me what I want, and I will give you what you want."
"What you want is the so-called new era?"
Xuan Xuanzi looked at Qin Weibai.
"And your life."
Qin Weibai looked at Xuan Xuanzi without giving in: "How about I help you fulfill your wish and let you die with peace of mind?"
"make a deal."
Xuan Xuanzi looked calm.
"This is not a deal."
Qin Weibai shook his head: "This is surrender. From today until your death, you belong to the Palace of Reincarnation."
"Kneel down."
Xuan Xuanzi remembered a somewhat unfamiliar title.
He was silent for a long time, then straightened up, straightened his robes, and knelt down in front of Qin Weibai.
"boss."
Xuan Xuanzi said calmly.
"boom!"
The world completely collapsed.
The darkness, the deep sea, the drifting land, everything disappeared.
Xuan Xuanzi's eyes instantly returned to clarity.
He stood on the path of Emperor Bing Mountain, surrounded by white petals flying like snow.
About a hundred meters ahead, a woman was turning around lightly.
Xuan Xuanzi's ears were filled with the loud sound of earth shattering and Qin Weibai's plain but irresistible voice.
"Welcome to the Palace of Reincarnation."

I really am not digging holes as I like without any lower limit... almost all the holes are dug into bigger holes when I give some clues in the previous article... I can fill them in now, and I can't extricate myself.
