The first thousand four hundred and tenth chapters of the shackles
After Hua Jiankong left, Chen Xi immediately returned to Jianlu Cave Mansion.
"The only thing I have to worry about now is my mother's safety. I don't know if this decision will stimulate Zuoqiu Feng to desperately start an internal conflict within the Zuoqiu clan..."
Sitting cross-legged in the cave, Chen Xi could not calm down for a long time.
He knew very well that Zuoqiu Taiwu's previous conversation with him must represent a voice within the Zuoqiu clan, and now that he and Zuoqiu Taiwu had reached an agreement, the other party would definitely react in some way when they saw this.
If this happens, it will inevitably affect his mother, Zuo Qiuxue.
However, Chen Xi also knew very well that the reason why his mother could survive so far was that she would not be so prone to disaster. As Zuoqiu Taiwu said, the current Zuoqiu clan is divided into two factions. One faction is named after the current head of the family, Zuoqiu.
Feng is the main faction, and Zuoqiu Xue is the main faction.
The internal conflict between the two factions had already occurred before Chen Xi was born, but now that Zuo Qiu Xue is still alive and well, he must have enough power to make Zuo Qiu Feng's family fearful.
"It seems that the time left for me is getting less and less. I must prepare everything before the internal conflict within the Zuoqiu clan..."
Chen Xi took a deep breath and made a decision in his heart. He would visit Hua Jiankong a month later, quickly return to the human world, and settle his younger brother Chen Hao and the Chen clan members properly. Only in this way, even if he confronts the Zuoqiu clan,
He no longer has any worries.
"As for father..."
Inexplicably, Chen Xi thought of his father Chen Lingjun again, and there was still no news from him, which made him sigh in his heart.
He asked himself that his reputation had already spread in the immortal world. Under such circumstances, if his father Chen Lingjun was still in the immortal world, how could he not come to Daohuang Academy to meet him?
Is he no longer in the fairy world? Or is there another hidden secret?
In the end, Chen Xi shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
…
"Chen Xi is still alive!"
In a splendid hall, Zuo Qiu Sheng's face was gloomy, he gritted his teeth and spoke, his voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, showing a hint of surprise, but more of an anger.
"How could this be? Have you ever met Taiwu Patriarch, and how did he explain it?"
When Zuo Qiuhong heard this, his expression suddenly changed and he asked quickly.
"Ancestor Taiwu...has gone into seclusion!"
Zuo Qiu Sheng's face turned pale and he said in a deep voice, "This is enough to show that Patriarch Taiwu did not make the right choice as Patriarch Huanglin said!"
"Damn it! Why is this happening? With Patriarch Taiwu's temperament, he would never let Chen Xi go so easily. Could it be that something else happened?"
Zuo Qiuhong was suddenly confused. He had been waiting for the news of Chen Xi's death these days, but who would have thought that he would get such bad news!
"Not only that, I heard that when the family leader went to Iris Fairy Prison to meet Zuo Qiuxue, the other party also rejected the goodwill offered by the family leader."
Zuo Qiu Sheng's face was solemn, and his eyes were filled with cold light, "This also means that both Chen Xi and Zuo Qiu Xue have decided to fight the family leader to the end!"
After hearing all this, Zuo Qiuhong was stunned for a moment and said nothing for a long time. After a long time, he said in a deep voice: "What should we do next?"
Zuo Qiu Sheng said angrily: "What else can we do? Let's report this matter to the head of the family first. It's up to the head of the family to decide everything. But I guess... the civil strife that has been building up for many years in the family is about to break out!"
Civil unrest!
Zuo Qiuhong's eyes narrowed again, and he sighed: "Actually, back then, we should have eradicated each other at all costs..."
Zuoqiu said boredly: "That's enough! Don't mention what happened back then!"
…
Iris Fairy Prison.
In a strange space in the deepest place, there are green mountains, green water, fences and thatched huts.
Zuo Qiu Xue stood in the small fenced courtyard as usual, staring quietly at the misty green mountains in the distance, a look of calmness filling her delicate eyebrows.
If Chen Xi were here, he would definitely find that his expression when he was meditating was very similar to his mother Zuo Qiuxue, equally calm and calm.
"Axue."
A hoarse and deep voice resounded, and following the voice, an old man with bare feet and linen clothes, an ordinary face, and an expression as determined as a mountain appeared out of thin air.
He is surprisingly Zuoqiu Feiming, an old antique from the Zuoqiu family!
Ever since Zuo Qiu Xue was detained here, the faction represented by Zuo Qiu Feiming has been fighting against the clan leader Zuo Qiu Feng.
In other words, the existence of Zuoqiu Feiming is roughly equivalent to the status of Zuoqiu Huanglin. The latter assists Zuoqiu Feng, while the former assists Zuoqiu Xue.
"Third uncle, you are here."
Zuo Qiuxue turned her head and said with a slight smile, "It seems that the conflict within the family is about to break out."
Zuoqiu Feiming frowned: "You are right, but it is a pity that the time left for us to prepare is too short. In the event of a conflict, the strength we have now is still weaker than the other party."
Zuo Qiuxue smiled: "I heard that Xi'er has performed very well these years."
Mentioning Chen Xi, a rare smile appeared on Zuoqiu Feiming's lips, and he said with emotion: "Indeed, this little guy's fame in the immortal world is so great that no one can match it."
Hearing the third uncle's praise for Chen Xi, Zuo Qiuxue also smiled, with a hint of pride, and blinked: "Of course, he is my and Lingjun's son."
Zuoqiu Feiming smiled and nodded: "I came here this time to tell you that you don't have to worry about Xi'er's safety. I had received news when I came here before that the old guy Taiwu had not done anything to Xi'er."
Zuoqiu Taiwu?
Hearing this name, Zuo Qiu Xue couldn't help but have a complicated look on his lips, which seemed to be disgusting and admiring. After a long time, he said: "If he hadn't been so hesitant back then, Zuo Qiu Feng would have to pay more if he wanted to usurp the position of the head of the family. The heavy price will even make it impossible for Zuo Qiufeng to succeed. Unfortunately, in his heart, all the grudges and struggles are not worth the Zuo Qiu family."
Zuoqiu Feiming said calmly: "But we have to admit that it is precisely because of Taiwu's existence that we have been secretly confronting each other over the years, and we have suffered more than just annihilation and suppression."
Zuo Qiuxue nodded: "This is what troubles me. This time, Ancestor Huanglin wanted to lend Ancestor Taiwu's hand to kill Xi'er. It was indeed a ruthless move, which made me a little agitated. I underestimated the opponent's methods. Fortunately, this did not happen. By the way, Taiwu Patriarch has been hesitating for so many years. Has he made his stance clear this time?"
Zuoqiu Feiming shook his head: "According to the information I got, Taiwu has gone into seclusion. Perhaps, he is completely disappointed with the current situation of his family."
At the end of the sentence, there was a touch of emotion in his voice.
He, Zuoqiu Huanglin and Zuoqiu Taiwu were both figures of the same era, controlling and influencing most affairs of the Zuoqiu family. Unfortunately, the three of them have now taken three different paths.
Zuoqiu Huanglin supported Zuoqiu Feng as the head of the family and advocated Zuoqiu clan.
Zuoqiu Taiwu ignored everything and chose to withdraw from the internal disputes within the Zuoqiu clan and live in seclusion at Daohuang Academy.
Zuoqiu Feiming, on the other hand, has always supported Zuoqiu Xue and wants to regain everything he lost back then. He has been fighting against Zuo Qiufeng and the others.
Now after so many years, this grudge is on the verge of breaking out, but Zuoqiu Taiwu has chosen to retreat. This has to make Zuoqiu Feiming sigh, how similar is this scene to back then?
"Uncle Third, what do you say to the old guy in the family who sleeps all day long?"
Zuo Qiuxue suddenly asked.
Hearing this, Zuoqiu Feiming's expression suddenly became solemn, and he shook his head and said: "The situation is not good. I can no longer contact Uncle Beiyong. This makes me suspect that Afeng and Huanglin have already contacted Uncle Beiyong.
Some kind of agreement was reached.”
Uncle Beiyong!
Zuoqiu Feiming was already very senior in the Zuoqiu family, but he called Beiyong his uncle. So how terrifying should his power and status be?
"What about the old woman who only knows how to practice?" Zuo Qiuxue also frowned and asked slowly.
"Aunt Leng Hua didn't express his position, which is really worrying." Zuoqiu Feiming sighed.
Aunt Leng Hua!
Obviously, this is another being who can rival that great uncle Bei Yong.
"Humph, these two old guys were like this back then, and they are like this now. If my father hadn't been too kind back then, what they did back then would have been enough to expel them from the Zuoqiu clan!"
Zuo Qiu Xue's eyes turned cold, revealing a trace of undisguised disgust. When she said this, she suddenly started slightly, as if remembering something, she raised her eyebrows and said: "Third uncle, do you think they will..."
"Hard to say!"
Before he could finish speaking, Zuoqiu Feiming frowned and said, obviously he had already guessed something, "Death is like a lamp going out. I'm afraid the rules your father set back then have been forgotten by them."
Zuo Qiuxue took a deep breath and said, "It seems that we can only prepare for the worst."
Zuoqiu Feiming nodded, remained silent for a long time, and then looked at Zuo Qiuxue worriedly and said, "Axue, hasn't the power of the 'Forbidden Shackles' been weakened yet?"
Zuo Qiuxue said: "Third uncle, don't worry, as long as I don't leave this place, the shackles of the forbidden can't do anything to me." At this point, she looked at the other party seriously and said, "Third uncle, is there any news about Lingjun?"
Zuoqiu Feiming shook his head.
Seeing this, Zuo Qiuxue was startled, and pursed his lips and said: "The Hongmeng Legacy Land has been destroyed, so he must not give up and go to the outside world to search for the 'Pattern of Divine Appearance'. Only that kind of strange object can open this place."
The shackles of evil ban..."
Zuoqiu Feiming was shocked: "That treasure really exists?"
Zuo Qiuxue shook her head: "I don't know, but I know Lingjun. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, he will definitely do it." At the end of the sentence, her eyes were filled with tenderness, and that sentence flashed through her mind inadvertently.
A familiar figure.
"Axue, I'm leaving first."
After a while, Zuoqiu Feiming said goodbye.
"Third uncle, if this conflict can be delayed longer, it will be more beneficial to us. Please pay more attention to this."
Zuo Qiuxue said quickly.
"I understand, Xue, you also need to be careful. The situation is already chaotic. Don't be careless..."
Zuoqiu Feiming nodded, and the next moment his figure disappeared into thin air.
"I must live well..."
Zuo Qiuxue stood alone in the small fenced courtyard, murmuring softly, her thoughts suddenly flew back to the past years, thinking of her husband, her son...
