Chapter 21: The Mysterious Man

"Speaking of the apprenticeship ceremony of Jiuxiao Daojun, it was a huge event. Everyone who could be named in a hundred miles radius came to attend the ceremony, just to have a look at the disciple. As soon as the disciple appeared, everyone became excited.

I’m shocked, this disciple turns out to be an immortal spirit body that appears once every ten thousand years..."

On the first floor of the inn, diners were coming and going. People sitting in the hall were eating the delicacies on their plates, listening to the storyteller's witty words, and having a sip of wine from time to time. It was a wonderful day.

What we are talking about at this time is the ceremony of accepting disciples of Taoist Master Jiuxiao of the Heavenly Palace seven days ago. Many people have not witnessed the grand occasion with their own eyes, but they can also get a glimpse of the scene from the storytellers.

As soon as the words "immortal spirit body" came out, everyone present was shocked and sighed.

"It turns out to be this legendary spirit body. It's really not easy for anyone to become a disciple of Lord Jiuxiao."

"Yes, the last disciple is the Lord of the Island and has a great reputation. The next one is also an extraordinary person..."

"I heard that this person was just an ordinary disciple at the outer gate of the Heavenly Palace before he became a disciple. However, he went to ascend the heavenly steps before he was taken seriously by Jiuxiao Taoist Lord. He was found to have an immortal spirit body. I see, this person is both qualified and powerful.

Be patient and you will definitely achieve great results in the future.”

Everyone agreed again.

In the corner, the person in a black cloak put down the wine glass in her hand upon hearing this, and her green-white fingers landed on the ordinary ceramic cup, looking a little out of place.

"Fairy spirit body..."

She chuckled lightly, whether it was sarcasm or something else, she couldn't tell.

It is said that there is an immortal who died and was reincarnated. He was born with smooth cultivation. After practicing the immortal spirit body for more than one month, he can surpass others who have practiced for several years. He has his own understanding in cultivation, so he can understand the mysteries of all the laws in the world. It can be said that it is determined from birth.

He is going to become an immortal.

However, immortal spirit bodies are extremely rare. One in a thousand years is too many, and one in ten thousand years is the norm.

People spread word of mouth and put that person on the altar. Also, with such talent and having an incredible master, he has reached this point and is regarded as the top existence in the world of cultivation. As long as he does not die halfway, as long as he works hard

You can easily become an immortal in half a minute.

Become an immortal.

Those who become immortals must go through thunder tribulations, and then the heavenly gate opens and they walk up the steps to heaven. That is the real step to heaven, the road to the immortal world.

Fairy spirit body.

She lowered her eyes, but the smile on her lips was full of bitterness.

Others said it was so magical, but how could she not know what kind of fairy spirit that person was? They had grown up together since childhood. Their talents were indeed better than those of ordinary people, but they were far inferior to the legendary one.

Immortal spirit body.

Late night...

"Chaohuan."

The person sitting opposite shouted. She raised her head, blinked her cold eyes, and said, "Be careful of hurting your hands."

Only then did Chao Huan notice the cup he was unconsciously clenching in his hand. It was an ordinary porcelain cup. If he applied more force, it would break.

"Well, I understand, thank you for reminding me." Chao Huan let go of his hand and put it by his side. The person opposite was not talking, and he was sitting there without eating or drinking, just like a puppet.

In fact, there is nothing to say thank you to, because it was Jukong Jin who gave the order not to let Chao Huan get hurt. Everything he did was the result of being manipulated against his own will.

The storyteller has already begun to tell another story. It is a story about a pair of crazy men and resentful women who finally overcome many difficulties and get together. Although the ending is good, the process is too painful. Some people are not willing to listen and give money to ask for another one.

The storyteller was naturally happy, took the money, cleared his throat and began to tell the story of how a swordsman fought against a group of demons. This story was loved by everyone, and the hall became lively again.

Chao Huan stopped listening unintentionally. She stood up and said, "Let's go."

Lian Yunlan also stood up and followed her out of the inn. The two of them walked to the door, but Chao Huan bumped into someone.

She raised her head and saw a pair of cold eyes full of wind and snow. It was not that Lian Yunlan had no emotions, but even colder, as if all emotions were frozen under the ice and snow.

The man looked at her and asked, "Are you Wei Sheng Chaohuan?"

Chao Huan said nothing. She looked into the man's eyes, as if frozen and speechless. She realized that the man in front of her was extremely dangerous, but the aura around him prevented her from moving.

Lian Yunlan, who was behind him, sensed the danger. He raised his sword and stepped forward. Before he could get close to the opponent, he was knocked away with a wave of his sleeve.

Lian Yunlan rolled dozens of meters away and finally hit a stone wall. The stone wall collapsed and stone bricks completely buried Lian Yunlan.

"Lian Yunlan!" Chao Huan exclaimed. She subconsciously turned around and wanted to run over, but the man grabbed her wrist very quickly. Chao Huan could not struggle no matter what.

She was worried and scared. Who was this person who suddenly appeared in front of her? She realized that the other party was very powerful, and she could not escape easily with her own cultivation and methods.

But she still forced herself to calm down, at least first to find out who the other person was and what they wanted.

"Who are you?" Chao Huan suppressed the panic in his heart and tried to calm himself down, "What do you want to do?"

The man's eyes fell on Chao Huan. It was a very cold look, as if everything could not be seen. It could also be said that he was arrogant.

It was not that arrogant look, but rather a look of compassion for heaven and man. But the last time Chao Huan saw such a look was from a person who ruined everything for her.

That is the sight of God, but God never shows mercy to ordinary people. They are aloof and arrogant.

Chao Huan flinched and resisted his desire to take back his hand.

The man seemed to have noticed Chao Huan's discomfort, and he said calmly: "Do you know Ji Kong Ji?"

The day is gone.

Chao Huan was stunned when she heard the name from the other party. She immediately realized that the other party was coming for Ju Kong Jin. Maybe he was an enemy of Ju Kong Jin. He didn't know where he got the news about her and wanted to get it from her.

Start here.

But what the other party said later dispelled her speculation.

"I'm going to take you away. You don't have to think about contacting Ji Kongjin, he can't help you."

This time Chao Huan understood that he was not here for Ju Kong Jin, but for her.

but why?

Facing Chao Huan's doubts, the man didn't try to explain. He grabbed Chao Huan's hand and was about to leave. Chao Huan couldn't struggle from his hand, but the people coming and going from the inn seemed to have seen nothing.

They passed by and entered the inn without looking back.

"No, I..." Chao Huan resisted, but the difference in strength was too great. In order to prevent her from escaping, the other party even imprisoned her spiritual power. She could only feel the spiritual power in her body disappear and change.

Become an ordinary person.

With a "click" sound, Lian Yunlan, who was buried by the stone wall, stretched out a bloody hand. He stood up suddenly. Most of the black robe on his body was damaged. Even the sword cultivator who had trained his body was damaged by the blow just now.

He was seriously injured and it was difficult to stand up.

"Lian Yunlan..."

Even Yunlan was breathing heavily, and the mysterious man was a little surprised by the other party's amazing perseverance, but to him, it was nothing more than that.

"return···"

"give me back."

Lian Yunlan pulled out his long sword, and the spiritual power gathered in the sword, giving off a dazzling light.

"Give her back to me!"

At night, the moon is like a bright pearl.

In the woods, beside a bonfire, Chao Huan was sitting on a stone. The firelight illuminated her shadow. The girl's slender figure looked particularly fragile under the firelight. She had obviously cried, and her eyes were red and swollen.

The mysterious man on the side was meditating with his eyes closed. The huge forest was silent and there was no sound except for the crackling sound of firewood burning.

After an unknown amount of time, another sound sounded, a heavy breathing sound, as if all life was being burned away, and every sound was mixed with great pain.

Chao Huan's eyes suddenly lit up. Her expression was both sad and happy, extremely complicated.

The mysterious man opened his eyes and said calmly: "You are really stubborn. You followed me even though you were so seriously injured."

In front of the inn, Lian Yunlan fought with the mysterious man but his identity was revealed in an instant. His desperate blow did not give him any chance. The moment he was about to approach the mysterious man, he was knocked away again by the mysterious man.

He rolled dozens of meters away, like a pile of rotten meat, with blood dripping all over his body, and there was no intact part of his body.

Chao Huan screamed, but the mysterious man said: "If you come with me, I can let him go."

Chao Huan was silent for a moment and nodded with tears in her eyes. She fed Lian Yunlan a few pills, supported him in a hiding place, and finally left with the mysterious man.

However, Lian Yunlan followed them, relying on his strong will to follow them stubbornly.

After hearing the mysterious man's words, Chao Huan was extremely nervous. She was afraid that the mysterious man would kill Lian Yunlan, so she quickly said: "You promised me you wouldn't kill him."

The mysterious man glanced at her, and Chao Huan tensed up. She felt the mysterious man looking at her, but there was no hostility.

After a while, the mysterious man said: "I'm a little curious. He is Jiuzhili's clone. Why do you value him so much."

In fact, when the mysterious man mentioned Ju Kong Jin, she only thought that he was one of Ju Kong Jin's enemies. But when she realized that the mysterious man was coming towards her, she thought of another person.

Jiuzhili.

Probably in this world, apart from murdering people and seizing treasures, there is only one person who would come looking for her after knowing her identity.

At this time, the mysterious man's words convinced Chao Huan of his guess.

She looked at the fire and was silent for a moment before speaking slowly.

"I'm sorry for him."

"Oh? Do you feel guilty? You took advantage of someone who knows nothing."

After being told what he was thinking, Chao Huan fell silent.

The man sneered, "If what I know is correct, he seems to have been plotted by Ji Kong from the beginning to the end. Even the master who is both his master and his father is a scam. In his opinion, the encounter with you

It was a beautiful coincidence, but I didn’t know that it was the result of someone’s calculation. The person who was doing his best to help him was actually taking advantage of him from the beginning and only wanted his sincerity..."

"Stop talking!" Chao Huan stood up. She subconsciously looked at the place where the gasping sound was. Lian Yunlan fell under a tree and was already unconscious.

She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled.

"Stop talking, I know all these things."

"I know what a despicable thing I am doing, plotting against an innocent person. Even this is just the beginning. I will harm more people and hurt more people. They died because of me, and I will bear this sin forever.
