Xu Zhiqiong took Jiang Mengyun and deceived many guards along the way and arrived at Anshuyuan.
There was someone in Anshu Courtyard. Emperor Changle was sitting in the courtyard, talking to the blood tree.
This blood tree had been drained of all its blood by Emperor Zhaoxing, and had completely lost its vitality for a while.
But not long after the death of Emperor Zhaoxing, the blood tree came back to life again, and even He Shuiling didn't understand the reason.
Xu Zhiqiong took Jiang Mengyun and hid in the outer courtyard of Anshu Courtyard, quietly listening to the sounds in the inner courtyard.
"Mom, that bastard killed you back then, but he still came to me and acted arrogantly. But this time I can't care much. I have to kill that bastard!"
Who is the bastard? Does he mean Liang Yushen?
No wonder Emperor Changle hated Liang Yushen so much. This was not only a matter of grabbing the throne, but also a personal vendetta.
Waves of night wind blew by, blowing the branches of the blood tree, and kept falling on Liang Yuyang.
Xu Zhiqiong was really worried that the branches of the blood tree would suddenly wrap around Liang Yuyang and absorb him as part of himself.
He knew that this blood tree was Liang Yuyang's mother, but he didn't think that this blood tree could always remain sane.
But this blood tree really maintained its rationality. Its branches kept caressing Liang Yuyang, calming Liang Yuyang's anger with utmost gentleness.
"Mom, you always tell me not to be angry. What should I do about this? How long should I endure it?"
Is the blood tree talking?
Why can't Xu Zhiqiong hear it?
It is true that his hearing is much better than that of Liang Yuyang.
There must be a special way of communication between mother and son.
Liang Yuyang and Xue Shu muttered to each other for an hour, then got up and left.
Xu Zhiqiong took Jiang Mengyun into the inner garden.
"Senior, let's make one thing clear first. If you really come to save people, I won't stop you. But if you want to destroy the last bit of Queen Chai Qiuci's soul, I can't agree to it.
This is not because I am not trustworthy, this is the emperor's trust. If this trust is gone, it will drive him crazy, and the people of Daxuan will suffer."
Jiang Mengyun laughed and said: "You really think a lot about the people, you are afraid that they will suffer a loss."
Xu Zhiqiong said: "Because the people have suffered so much, few people have thought about them."
Jiang Mengyun sighed: "Don't worry, how could I be willing to kill her? She is a piece of my heart."
While talking, Xu Zhiqiong heard a familiar singing voice, the singing voice he heard for the first time when he came to Anshu Courtyard.
Xu Zhiqiong reminded Jiang Mengyun: "Please pay attention, this song is a bit penetrating."
Jiang Mengyun smiled: "How scary can it be?"
"You will know after you have heard it."
When he first came to An Shuyuan, Xu Zhiqiong was only a ninth-grade official and the lowest-cultivated being in the Taoist sect. The singing of the blood tree once made his hair stand on end.
Now he is a second-grade Star Lord, an absolute top figure in the Taoist sect, but the song of the Blood Tree still makes him shudder.
This song is so sad.
"Who knows about my hatred?
Who can explain my grievances?
My hatred has no end,
My blood is still wet!"
Wait, the sound has changed, it's different from what I heard before.
It's not completely different. The timbre and quality are similar, but there's just a little more overlap.
It seems that not only the Blood Tree is singing again, but there seems to be another person singing along with the Blood Tree.
Xu Zhiqiong raised his head and found Jiang Mengyun's lips moving. She was singing the same song as Blood Tree.
There is still one word left to sing.
Jiang Mengyun slowly turned towards Xu Zhiqiong, stared with blood-red eyes, and sang together with Xue Shu: "I will kill!"
Whoosh!
Xu Zhiqiong jumped on the wall: "Senior, we have something to discuss!"
The voices are the same, the voices of Jiang Mengyun and Xue Shu are exactly the same.
Even the murderous aura emanating from her body was exactly the same as the blood tree.
Jiang Mengyun walked gently to the blood tree and whispered: "You have suffered."
Jiang Mengyun's voice was so low that Xu Zhiqiong could barely hear it clearly.
He confirmed again that Jiang Mengyun's voice was indeed exactly the same as Xue Shu's voice.
This is not the first time Jiang Mengyun has shown red eyes, Xu Zhiqiong has seen it before.
But today, the way her pupils were filled with blood reminded him of another person.
Liang Yuyang.
Jiang Mengyun's blood-red pupils were so similar to Liang Yuyang's.
The singing of the blood tree stopped, Xu Zhiqiong jumped down from the wall and walked to Jiang Mengyun.
There seems to be some kind of connection here.
The connection between Jiang Mengyun and Emperor Changle.
"Senior, you said this is a piece of meat in your heart. Is Queen Chai Qiuci your daughter?"
Jiang Mengyun shook his head and said: "She is my clone."
"Clone?"
Jiang Mengyun nodded: "I have many clones. They were supposed to be in the underworld, but suddenly one of them was so restless and came to the Yang world.
After she came, she refused to leave. She wanted to get married, she wanted to have children, and she wanted to watch her children grow up.
As a result, before the child grew up, she was harmed and suffered for many years.
Ma Changshi, you don’t want me to harm him, and I really don’t want to harm her, but she was hit by Chaos’s Dark Light technique, and I can’t reverse it.”
Xu Zhiqiong knew that Jiang Mengyun’s cultivation level was higher than that of the mortal world, and there was a high probability that it was not just Xingjun: “With the cultivation level of my predecessor, I couldn’t handle the Mixing Light technique? As far as I know, the cultivation level of the person who performs this technique is
It’s not too high.”
In Xu Zhiqiong's impression, He Shuiling's cultivation level was not very high to begin with.
Jiang Mengyun sighed: "Chaos techniques are so elusive. Since she has become like this, I have no choice but to recall her soul."
"Does the clone also have a soul?" Xu Zhiqiong was very puzzled.
Jiang Mengyun said: "The clone has a soul, some souls are a shadow, some souls are an afterimage, some souls are part of the original soul,
Her soul is part of my soul, and after recalling her soul, her soul will be integrated into my soul."
Xu Zhiqiong thought for a moment, shook his head and said: "For this clone, this is equivalent to complete death!"
Jiang Mengyun sighed softly and said: "For her, it is considered dead. Some of her thoughts and thoughts will be passed on to me, which will make me have a mother-son feeling for Emperor Daxuan, and nothing else will be left.
"
This is not the result Xu Zhiqiong wants.
This is not the result that Emperor Chang Le wanted.
Emperor Changle survived his father's knife with great difficulty. He was able to survive until the day he ascended the throne. His mother was his spiritual support.
The next time Emperor Changle came to Anshuyuan, he found that his mother was gone. It is hard to say what would become of this wise monarch.
Seeing Xu Zhiqiong's solemn expression, Jiang Mengyun sighed and said: "I can't save her body, nor can I save her soul. Unless you can find someone to reverse the Hunmang technique, recalling her soul is the only way to save her."
The only way.”
Reversal the art of mixed light.
This thing doesn't seem too difficult.
If you give He Fang a little more time, she might be able to do it.
"Senior, what do you think about waiting another year and a half?"
"I can't wait. If I could wait, I wouldn't come here to declare the country easily," Jiang Mengyun shook his head and said, "Her soul has suffered too much damage, and her soul is not intact.
If I don't take her soul back today, her soul will be gone at dawn tomorrow, and all her ideas and thoughts will disappear. I was sure that this was her last day, so I took the risk to save her.
.”
In other words, even if Jiang Mengyun is stopped, Liang Yuyang will still have no mother in the future.
How can I reverse the Hunmang technique?
Yuan Chengfeng can do it.
But can he still do it now?
Take him out of the underworld and let him save Chai Qiuci's life?
In the past, I couldn't find Yuan Chengfeng because I was afraid of breaking the rules of life and death in the underworld. Now that Jiang Mengyun is here, this method should be feasible.
"Senior, are you a high-ranking disciple of the Underworld?"
Jiang Mengyun nodded.
"Please follow me to the underworld and release Yuan Chengfeng."
Jiang Mengyun shook his head and said: "I can't reveal my identity when I go to the Underworld. I'm just an ordinary woman. They probably won't take care of my face."
This would be troublesome. If Jiang Mengyun didn't come forward, Xu Zhiqiong would have to negotiate terms with the Yin Division.
After talking to Yinsi, we still have to talk to Yuan Chengfeng.
Yuan Chengfeng will definitely have his sentence reduced. How much will be reduced will have to be negotiated.
By the time we're done talking, it's probably going to be dawn soon.
Yuan Chengfeng can't do it. Is there any Taoist practitioner of Impermanence who can help?
Shen Shuliang?
He doesn't know how to blend light.
He only knows the techniques of confusion, blocking, and orifice sealing. Xu Zhiqiong taught him the orifice sealing technique.
Shen Weiyi?
This is even worse and will only confuse the technique.
Pay Ji?
This one also doesn’t have the skill of mixing light...
There are many Chaos cultivators in Qiancheng Kingdom, but Xu Zhiqiong has eliminated all those who are good at Chaotic Light skills.
There are many candidates in mind, but none of them can succeed.
"The most promising one is Shen Shuliang. After all, his cultivation is there. I will teach him again!"
When Xu Zhiqiong was about to leave, Jiang Mengyun reminded: "Inversion and resolution are two different things. With Shen Shuliang's foundation, he may be able to learn the skill of mixing light overnight, but he may not be able to resolve it. Even if he can learn to resolve, he will never be able to learn it."
The means of inversion.”
Jiang Mengyun roughly explained the difference between inversion and resolution.
Dissolving the mixed light technique is equivalent to removing the effects of the mixed light technique, causing the blood tree to lose its chaotic characteristics and become an ordinary tree.
Inversion is to find the original root of the blood tree and turn the blood tree into a human again.
Xu Zhiqiong thought about Shen Weiyi's understanding ability. Just explaining this concept to him clearly would not be enough in one night.
Moreover, it cannot be said directly. The secret of chaos cannot be said or heard. We have to find a way to let Shen Shuliang understand it.
From this we can conclude that Shen Shuliang cannot do it.
If you want to save Chai Qiuci, the basic requirement is to know the principles of the Hunmang technique.
From this point of view, besides Yuan Chengfeng, are there any other suitable candidates?
It seems there is another one.
Xu Zhiqiong stared at the blood tree for a moment and said, "I'll try."
Jiang Mengyun said in astonishment: "Do you know the techniques of the Tao of Impermanence?"
"Know a little bit."
"I just said that dissolving and inverting are two different things. If you directly resolve the Tao of Impermanence, my clone will really turn into a tree."
Xu Zhiqiong said: "Give me an hour. If I can't succeed in an hour, I will go to the underworld to find Yuan Chengfeng."
When the time comes to go to the Yin Division, there will be no time for negotiation. Xu Zhiqiong has to find a way to get Yuan Chengfeng out.
