Qingxuan was so anxious that she even forgot to do the courtesy. She took a step forward and said: "Your Majesty! Qingshui and I practice hard every day and never dare to slack off, just so that we can go to the cloister with your Majesty that day."
Tianyuan.
We know that we are weak and do not have the ability to suppress the demonic beast that is the leader of the chaos. I just want to walk side by side with you, your empress, to help you solve your problems. I also ask your empress not to abandon me and Qing Shui this year and go on alone.
Fight powerful enemies."
After hearing this, Cang Nanyi couldn't help but laugh softly. Her smile was truly as bright as the wind and the moon, and her eyes were so deep and peaceful that there was no trace of waves.
"The Golden Sea and the Corridor Tianyuan are the largest forbidden areas in Kunlun, our mountain. You are not a defender, so you can enter if you want.
Qingxuan, don’t overdo it. Unless you practice hard in this world, I will follow your true intention."
"But……"
"If you want to enter the Golden Sea, it's easy! Become the guardian of Kunlun Mountain like Yan Poyun, you are naturally qualified."
Qingxuan tried his best to suppress the dissatisfaction in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "The talent of Yan Poyun is not as good as mine and Qingshui. If he hadn't been caressed by an immortal and knelt down, how could he have been so lucky to become the guardian of Kunlun?
Those who are in a state of affairs.”
Cangnan Yi said calmly: "Are you angry that I didn't allow you to receive the enlightenment of the True Immortal Cult, which ruined your future?"
"Qingxuan doesn't dare." Qingxuan raised his stubborn and bright eyes, bit his lip and said: "The True Immortal Sect is just a group of wild people trained by your superiors. They are not qualified to enlighten me.
.
But if the empress is willing to enlighten Qingxuan, Qingxuan will think that he is more qualified than Yan Poyun to become a qualified and powerful defender."
"It's ridiculous." Cang Nanyi's eyes were calm and calm, "The moment you placed your hope on the enlightenment, you have already proven that you are not qualified to enter the Golden Sea, please step back."
Qingxuan felt that at this moment, the feeling of loss surged like a wave and filled his entire heart.
Her tense shoulders slumped little by little with Cang Nanyi's words, and she looked indescribably hurt.
In the year when Chaoyin was about to wreak havoc, Qingxuan still failed to convince the Lord Kunlun.
This year, she was still the one who entered the abyss of the Corridor in an unknown place.
The temple is vast, blown by the wind and snow, and there are no more holy relics on the jade platform.
Except for the two closest female officials around her, no one knew about Cang Nanyi's entry into the Golden Sea, the forbidden area of Kunlun.
Everything is as usual in the mountains, and there is still an endless stream of people climbing to Kunlun.
For Balian, with the opening of the God's Punishment Forest, the process of hunting monster beasts was a little long.
But he also understood that on such a grand day, although there was a mixture of fish and dragons, the defense line in the mountain was naturally not a vegetarian.
He knew that stealing the hearts of generals could not be accomplished overnight, and he never thought about causing any trouble to attract attention on such a grand day.
During this period of time, An An An was his hostage with peace of mind. When this important event was over, the monks in the mountain came down one after another and were completely clean. It was not too late to make plans again.
Anyway, the chaos is just around the corner.
As for the monster in the God's Punishment Forest...
Balian lowered his eyes and gently touched the smooth horns of the little white dragon sleeping in his sleeve with his fingers, with a faint smile on his face.
There was never any shortage of little things around him.
In his world, things like monsters and beasts were never meant to be domesticated and put into weapons.
For fresh life, it is better to keep them in a free and fresh state.
He was not lying when he said he was not interested in the God's Punishment Forest.
What's more, with his current status, sneaking out of the small mountain residence and entering the God's Punishment Forest to hunt monsters is undoubtedly asking for trouble for himself.
No matter what the general's heart is thinking, it is impossible to hide it in that forest.
So no matter how busy people outside the mountain home are doing business, Bailian feels that it is better for him to continue to stay in the quiet place of the mountain home without anyone disturbing him.
Having been in the world for such a long time, the journey has been bloody and bloody, with fighting everywhere.
Although God Lord Kunlun confined him here, seemingly depriving him of his freedom, he also gave him the peace of mind that he had not had for a long time.
In the past few months, Balian's mind has been cultivated to become calmer and quieter.
There are no winds and waves above my heart, and everything is amidst the green mountains and green trees.
Practice quietly, live a quiet life and cultivate your sword. In the calm wind and waves, you can see the true meaning of life and understand the sound of the great road.
The settling of such a state of mind will only bring a lot of benefits and no harm to Bailian when he overcomes the calamity in the future.
Even the Tiance Junshan Sword, which was born with difficulty in gathering souls, has gradually formed into the prototype of the sword spirit under the daily nourishment of Bai Lian's own essence and blood.
Prior to this, Balian had also nourished his sword with essence and blood day and night, but the effect was far from as remarkable as it is now.
Although the state of mind is different, even if the essence and blood are of the same purity, the sword intent cultivated is indeed completely different.
Counting the days, Balian will be happy just thinking about how many more months he can have such a comfortable life.
However, not long after such a comfortable life, the tranquility of the mountain residence was broken by sudden changes.
The reason was that the two immortal attendants who were guarding Balian didn't return all night, and Balian didn't take it seriously at first.
After all, this is the Kunlun Mountains, the territory of their fairies, and these two people are working under the female officer Qing Shui, so there will be no danger.
Bai Lian only thought that they were tripped up by other important matters Qing Shui ordered.
It wasn't until noon the next day that Qi Shan came back alone and in despair, and he realized that something was wrong.
With that look, Balian could tell that something was wrong.
Qi Shan usually attaches great importance to neatness and etiquette, but today his clothes are dirty and messy. His sleeves and hem are full of tears, his mouth is bruised and bloody, and there is a mark between his eyebrows that looks like he was burned by incense.
It looks like he got into a fight and was bullied?
What's more important is that only one of the two people who have been inseparable from Shang Chang all day long came back today.
This is really a strange thing.
Bai Lian didn't want to be troublesome, but seeing his appearance, he couldn't help but asked in the end: "What happened? Why are you so embarrassed? Why don't you see Shang Chang and others?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Qi Shan stumbled into the courtyard as if he had not recovered from his soul, with an expression of indescribable anguish and pain on his face.
Facing Balian, he seemed unwilling to talk more. He just shook his head and straightened up to go back to the house.
"Nothing? Brother, he has other important things to do. I will be the only one taking care of you these days..."
Bailian said sternly: "If something happens, you can go to Qingshui Female Official. If you are worried about offending any powerful people, don't worry too much. Qingshui Female Official has an upright character and will never allow outsiders to bully the Kunlun Immortal Clan."
Maybe Balian's words hit the nail on the head and hit Qi Shan's wound.
His face twitched hard, and there was a bit of bitterness and unwillingness on his face.
He laughed at himself and said, "What does Master Qingshui care about? We are just the lowest immortal servants in the mountain.
Our ancestors have not given birth to a glorious person with immortal bones, and without the protection of our ancestors or the support of our family, we cannot afford to offend anyone in this mountain, let alone those who are still followers of the True Immortal Sect."
Qi Shan's face was full of misery: "That's the True Immortal Sect, what does Master Qingshui have to do with it?
Even if I reported it to her, how could she be willing to have trouble with His Majesty for the sake of our people who are as small as dust?
We, the people of Kunlun, are born to speak lightly and cannot benefit Kunlun. How can we make trouble in front of the empress and alienate the couple?"
Balian frowned deeply and deduced a rough guess from his words.
"The True Immortal Sect is located in Kunlun Jingxu. How can it cause trouble to others for no reason? Shang Chang still didn't listen to the advice and went to find the people of the True Immortal Sect to pray to their souls, right?"
Qi Shan's eyes were full of bitterness: "At this time, I hope that my brother will not listen to the advice. He just listens to the advice too much and is too stubborn, so he gets angry."
Bailian asked: "What on earth is going on?"
Qi Shan raised his eyes and glanced at Balian, and said: "Only now do I know that my hunch and your guess are not wrong.
The True Immortal Sect seems to be selflessly benefiting the immortal people of Kunlun, and does not hesitate to waste its own cultivation to pray for others, but secretly it may have some ulterior secrets."
"Although my brother is a little naive sometimes, he is not stupid. That day, after your Excellency secretly enlightened him, he also realized something.
Therefore, when the True Immortal Sect offers blessings and prayers once a month, we two brothers will find excuses to refuse the True Immortal Sect’s call.”
"The gift of blessing and kowtowing to the soul is a matter for the immortals in the mountains to accept voluntarily or not.
In the beginning, my brother and I didn't go to listen to Taoist teachings, so everything was normal.
But I don’t know why, there have been rumors in the mountains recently, and it is said that the True Immortal Sect has other motives for blessing and knocking souls, and it has bad intentions and is causing great harm to Kunlun."
"When such rumors spread, they got out of hand. The immortal people in the mountains already have strong belief and respect for the True Immortal Sect.
Now that my brother and I are refusing in every possible way to do the kowtow ceremony, we have naturally become the target of public criticism, causing the True Immortal Sect to be dissatisfied."
Qi Shan's tone was heavy, and his usually gentle brows were now full of gloom.
"I don't know who is behind this, but the True Immortal Sect has become very popular in Kunlun Jingxu in recent years, teaching Taoism and absorbing the power of faith from all over the world. Naturally, it does not allow its own religious beliefs to be shaken in the slightest.
At this point, even though we know that the purpose of the True Immortal Sect is impure, the meager strength of the two brothers is ultimately unable to resist such a behemoth as the True Immortal Sect.
Today, followers of the True Immortal Sect came to visit me, and I had no choice but to allow them to go to the altar of the True Immortal Religion in front of everyone in Kunlun to offer their faith and receive prostrations."
At this point, Qi Shan's eyes darkened and his voice became softer: "Before this, brother, he was clearly looking forward to becoming an immortal by praying to the spirit. Now, as long as he pretends not to know how to obey, it will be fine.
Nothing will happen.
If I had not reminded him of this, he would still be like the other immortal believers in the mountains, fervently believing, looking forward to, and pursuing the hope in his heart.
But he just used that moment of energy when he should have been confused, and insisted on fighting head-on with the True Immortal Sect."
Qi Shan blamed himself very much: "If I hadn't been smart enough to tell him this, he wouldn't have been taken away by the True Immortal Sect?"
Balian said unexpectedly: "Being taken away by people from the True Immortal Sect? The True Immortal Sect is so rampant that they dare to take people at will in the mountains?"
Qi Shan shook his head, his thin face tense, and traces of secretly gritted teeth were imprinted on his face.
"This is Kunlun Jingxu, and we are all the subjects of Kunlun Jingxu. Even if His Majesty is behind their True Immortal Sect, they would not dare to take people in public without any reason."
"It was only after this incident that my brother became more convinced that there was something fishy about the kowtow ceremony. He didn't want me to accept the kowtow ceremony from the True Immortal Sect, so he got into a fight with the people from the True Immortal Sect.
The hand he moved first hurt someone, so of course he was wrong. Now the people from the True Immortal Sect have taken my brother away by force, and I'm afraid he won't be able to escape with a whipping."
Qi Shan's words were clear and the whole story was explained in an orderly manner, but Bailian still felt that something was not quite right. He frowned and looked at Qi Shan.
"Shang Chang is not an impulsive and mentally ill person. It is impossible for him to not know the consequences of hurting someone first."
Qi Shan was startled, and then seemed to react. He looked at Balian with wide-open eyes, and his face turned pale:
"You mean, he intends to offend the people of the True Immortal Sect?"
Bai Lian took two steps forward, pushed aside the bangs of Qi Shan's hair with his fingers, and saw the traces of burns from incense on the center of his eyebrows, and said: "It seems that the people from the True Immortal Sect did not kowtow for you.
"
Qi Shan looked uneasy and said, "Yes... that's right. Brother, he injured someone from the True Immortal Sect. Later, for some reason, the True Immortal Sect gave up praying for our two brothers."
Bailian said: "The reason why the True Immortal Sect is so aggressive this time is just because of the opposition from some people who question their followers.
In this case, if you want to stabilize your power and credibility in Kunlun Mountain, praying for you two in front of everyone is the best way to deal with it, but they actually... gave up? "
Qi Shan looked at Bai Lian with a deathly expression: "Brother, he...brother, he..."
Bai Lian made it clear: "Shangchang should have reached some kind of agreement with the True Immortal Sect before they gave up on praying for you."
From this point of view, Shang Chang was taken away by the people of the True Immortal Sect, and it was not just a simple matter of being whipped.
Qi Shan was so confused that he suddenly became anxious and turned around to leave.
Balian grabbed him and said: "No one knows where they are now. If you blindly go to the True Immortal Sect at this moment, it will not help. You will only get yourself involved."
"But……"
Balian interrupted him and calmly comforted him: "Even if you prepare for the worst, you have to understand that this is Kunlun Mountain.
Shang Chang is a citizen of Kunlun, and the True Immortal Sect does not dare to take his life rashly, unless they dare to ignore the Kunlun God Lord and do whatever they want."
Qi Shan has a smart mind. Even though he is in a state of confusion at the moment, he also understands the reason why the authorities are in chaos.
At this moment, he knew that Bailian was better able to analyze the pros and cons of the situation than he was. He shook his head and said:
"I...I don't know how immortal people like us can be used by the True Immortal Sect."
Balian asked: "They neither punished you in public to consolidate their reputation, nor did they enlighten you.
So... what use can a demon immortal who has never experienced knocking spirits be of use to them?
Moreover, this kind of use must be something you yourself are willing to actively cooperate with?"
