Chapter 6 Even if you escape to the ends of the earth and turn into ashes
Eight days ago, He Mansion.
Shen Jianglei came to the door as promised and was sitting in the guest seat in the main hall.
Today, she changed from yesterday's sassy dress and put on a peach blossom and snow-white gauze skirt that looked more ladylike. There were also some gold hairpins and jade ornaments on her black bun.
Not to mention, it has a unique and exotic style.
Just like the all-powerful tiger who was transformed into a kitten by the immortal, ready to break free and rise up at any time.
From the occasional stiffness, it can be seen that she is not used to such graceful attire.
Obviously she attaches great importance to this visit.
He Qinghai, who was sitting in the seat, looked embarrassed. He found out that his son had run away last night. Now his future daughter-in-law came to visit him, and he didn't know what to do.
After the simple chat, Shen Jiangli seemed to mention it casually and asked: "Uncle He, why do you care about others?"
It can't be said that this brat ran away secretly, so He Qinghai could only say half-truths and half-false words: "Gu'er has gone back to practice. He has been practicing outside with his master since he was a child. There must have been something urgent yesterday, so he was in a hurry We said goodbye and left the city."
Shen Jianglei is extremely intelligent, so Qinghai already roughly understood the situation due to the surprised look on his face when he first saw her coming to the door, and the ambiguous answer now.
The fiancé was not only reluctant, but also disliked her to the point of wanting to run away.
She clenched her teeth with hatred and her red eyes wanted to eat people.
He Qinghai, who was above, pretended not to see it, feeling worried for his son.
As a father, he still approves of Shen Jiangli. After all, it is always good for his son to have a good wife to take care of him.
It’s not his fault anyway.
Shen Jiangli also knew not to spoil her impression, so she gathered her emotions and treated He Qinghai politely for a while, and finally said goodbye.
He Qinghai comforted her while sending her out: "Gu'er rarely has a chance to come back a year, and it may take a long time next time. Once he returns to his clan, I will send someone to inform my niece."
"Uncle He, can you tell me where he practices?"
He Qinghai did not hide anything and said seriously: "I don't know about this either. I only heard him say it was a remote and secluded place in the north."
Shen Jianglei nodded calmly, said goodbye and left the He family.
On this day, she made an important decision in her life: to go out to practice.
Although she had not fought against He Gu yesterday, she felt a little oppressed during the final confrontation.
To forge an iron, you need to be strong yourself, and to marry a husband, you need an iron rod and a hammer. She already has a sense of crisis.
This mysterious master of her fiancé might be the strong man her grandfather was afraid of.
If she doesn't work harder, I'm afraid she won't have a chance in the future.
You might even be kicked away by this hateful man with pride.
Thinking of such an embarrassing ending, her fighting spirit became intense.
The Shen family, Shen Jianglei’s boudoir.
After learning about this, Shen Zhengli and his wife ran in anxiously.
"My daughter, the world outside is difficult and dangerous, and you, a girl with a fledgling family, can make us feel relieved." Mrs. Shen burst into tears.
Shen Zhengli had no objection. He always respected practical training and despised meditating behind closed doors all day long.
He was just a little worried, and advised in a gentle voice: "The family's ancestral teachings say that when people go out to practice, they must reach the three realms. You are still a little short of it. It's not too late to talk about it in a few days."
The realm of cultivators is divided into one realm to nine realms, and there is also the legendary fairy realm above.
Shen Jiangli, who was twenty-four years old and at the peak of the Second Dao Realm, was considered outstanding among ordinary families.
"The Red Cloud Sect is about to recruit disciples, and my daughter doesn't want to waste time waiting until next time." Shen Jiangli changed into a red dress and packed her things.
After ancient evolution, Xuandao Continent is now divided into five regions, namely the East Dao Territory, the West Demon Territory, the North Immortal Territory, the South Demon Territory, and the Zhonghuang Continent where the imperial power is supreme.
The Chiyun Sect uses fire to build its way, and is one of the best sects in the Northern Immortal Territory except the Dragon Head Wu Sect.
Shen Jiangli happens to have a medium-to-high-grade fire spirit root, and has long been interested in joining this sect.
But now because of He Gu, the trip has been advanced by a year.
"My daughter is determined to be higher than others, and she also knows that life is a powerful thing. She hopes that her parents will fulfill her wish." Shen Jiangli carried a gun and bowed, her words made up her mind.
"Okay, okay!" Shen Zhengli laughed three times when he saw this, and he was extremely pleased. After he laughed, he said: "Dad supports you, I will ask the elder to send you on this trip."
Although Mrs. Shen is reluctant to part with her daughter, she also understands the general situation, and no more words will be said at this point.
The next day, Shen Jiangli left Qingshan City under the escort of the elder of the Shen family.
Above the goshawk, Shen Jiangli looked back at her hometown. After that, she made an obsession in her heart.
"He Gu, I will capture you sooner or later, even if you escape to the ends of the earth and turn into ashes..."
……
The imperial capital of Zhonghuangzhou, deep inside the palace.
The maids are waiting for the graceful empress to take a bath in an orderly manner.
The belt was untied, Gu Cangyue's noble dragon robe was carefully taken off by the maid, and then pieces of dark-scented underwear were removed.
Suddenly, a plump and ripe jade body was exposed to the moist air.
The skin is delicate and as white as mutton fat.
The mountains are majestic and the valleys are quiet.
The curves are hot and can be called a masterpiece.
Even the maids on the side couldn't help but their eyes moved a few times.
The water vapor was thick, and the empress slowly stepped into the spring pool with her long and beautiful feet. The ripples of the water finally covered this perfect jade body.
"Please step back first." The empress raised her delicate jade hands, which were dripping with drops of water, to call the maids back.
After the maids had left, she suddenly said: "Come in."
As soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow flashed down and knelt down by the spring pool.
"Your Majesty." The woman's voice was cold and respectful.
"Well, how's the check going?" The empress gently touched the winding snow-white shoulders. Under the seemingly calm face, her mind was not so calm.
"It is true that the eldest elder of the He family is an acquaintance of He Qing. According to her recollection, when she met He Qing outside Shiwanda Mountain, he was injured and alone, without his children. He Qing then entered Shiwanda Mountain alone.
, and there has been no news since.”
The empress's beautiful eyes were long: "Taizu met the ancestors of the He family in Wolong City. Wolong City was only a hundred miles away from the Shiwanda Mountain. The He family, who has a strong Seven Mirrors, had no trace of the Zhonghuang Continent before.
If none of them are left behind, then the He family should have moved here from the East Road Territory.
Send people to the East Dao Domain to secretly investigate all the big families with the surname He four hundred years ago. You then trace the whereabouts of my nephew. You have carefully checked all the way from the imperial capital to Shiwanda Mountain. If there are inconvenient places, let the King of Dongling take over for you.
Solved."
"Yes."
"Go." The empress was tired and waved her jade hands.
The woman in black quietly disappeared.
An inconspicuous red rope was tied around the empress's neck, and the lower end fell into the mountains.
At this moment, she pulled up the red rope with a "pop" sound, and a sapphire appeared after the soft shock of snow.
There was a little bit of white light shaking slightly in the jade, and she was stunned to see it.
The empress got this jade from a rebel. If it weren't for this life jade, she wouldn't even know whether her nephew was alive or dead.
"Li'er, where are you? My aunt has been looking for you for seventeen years."
The empress' eyebrows were furrowed and she looked ashamed.
"I am ashamed of my sister for causing trouble to the He family back then. Now you are the only one who can make up for it..."
