Mu Siyue smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The world says it is the opposite of an immortal, but what is an immortal? Does it despise mortal life and death, enjoy the worship of mortals, or is it indifferent to everything about mortals?"
"You have ascended from mortal to immortal, so you should know what I mean."
"Of course, not all demons are good people!"
"Most of the exercises they practice are related to killing, greed, and life and death. But based on this, can we say that what they do is wrong?"
"What if the people they kill are all deserving of death? Can you, Yunze, guarantee that all the people you kill in this life are bad?"
"You can't guarantee it, and neither can other cultivators. What's more, the so-called right and wrong are actually just judgments from different perspectives."
"In that case, what's the difference between demons and immortals?"
Mu Siyue lowered her eyebrows, as if she remembered something: "These are just two titles."
Yunze frowned and said nothing.
In fact, before he entered the path of immortality, he had no favorable impression of the immortal family in his heart. It could even be said that he disliked it.
It was only after meeting Brother Xiao and his actions that Yunze understood that there were good and bad in the Immortal Family.
Later, when he met Brother Yu, he completely changed his view of immortals.
Originally, Brother Yu patted his chest and promised that Brother Xiao was definitely not a member of the devil. But now, in the information he gave him, it was written that Brother Xiao was suspected of being a member of the devil.
Yunze hates the devil from the bottom of his heart!
It was because of the magic technique that my parents were refined into those magic weapons!
But now when I hear what Mu Siyue said, it seems that there is actually no essential difference between demons and immortals. It's just the different people they come into contact with that lead to different opinions.
Mu Siyue said nothing. She knew how much impact these words had on Yunze, so she paused for a while and then smiled.
"...it's still a long time, you can take a closer look."
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared before Yunze's eyes, leaving him alone in the retreat room, meditating.
It seemed that she did not answer Yunze's question, but judging from her reaction just now, she had actually given the answer.
Demon? Fairy?
The two figures of Xiao Hanshi and Yu Xian could not help but appear in Yunze's mind. These two people were the two people he had the most contact with on his journey to immortality.
Both Yu Xian and Xiao Hanshi fit his imagination of immortals.
Chic, wanton, and comfortable, just like the legend from the storyteller's mouth, but now... forget it, I don't think much about it anymore!
Yunze thought this in his heart, but he couldn't calm down while practicing. He kept thinking about what Mu Siyue said in his mind.
Is there really no difference between demons and immortals?
…
Noon the next day.
Yunze left the retreat room about two hours early.
This was the first time that he had such luxury and left the retreat before the time was over.
Even in the second half of the night after Mu Siyue left, he did not practice. Instead, he sat quietly in the retreat room, thinking about the previous conversation.
When the time was almost up, he saw that he couldn't calm down, so he simply stopped sitting in the retreat room, got up, walked out of the retreat room, and walked towards Wei Lanshu's cave.
As soon as Yunze arrived at the door of the retreat room, he saw Li Po waiting respectfully at the door, her head lowered and motionless, as if she was waiting for something.
He looked around and saw no trace of a living thing, let alone a human figure.
"Leave your mother-in-law?"
Yunze stepped forward and just shouted two words when Li Po raised her head and glared at him, blocking out everything he wanted to say.
Li Po raised her head and glanced in the sky. After making sure there was no one there, she breathed a sigh of relief and turned to glare at Yunze.
"Stand by and wait!"
Yunze was speechless for a while, rolled his eyes and walked to the stone table to sit down!
wait?
I'm not a servant of your Wei family, why should I pretend to welcome the master?
You are a loyal servant of the Wei family. I have already given Xiao Shu face by sitting aside to greet you.
Upon seeing this, Li Po just glanced at Yunze and said nothing more.
It's hard to persuade a damn ghost with good words.
I originally wanted to help this guy make a good impression, but since he doesn't appreciate it, it's none of my business!
Buzz!
Soon, a trembling sound came from the entire lonely peak again!
The mandrill on Yunze's waist trembled slightly, causing the sword energy in his body to tremble!
He looked up and saw that the sect leader was already flying in the air with his sword, hanging on the top of the solitary peak and looking into the distance!
That direction is exactly where Li Po worships!
But Yunze looked far into the distance, but couldn't see anyone in that direction.
Clang!
A crisp sound exploded from the horizon, as if echoing the sound of the sword just now.
In just an instant, there was a flash of red on the horizon!
That piece of red slowly approached, spreading from the horizon towards the eyes, as if it was setting the entire sky on fire!
Yunze narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at the red color, finally seeing it clearly.
It looks like... a bird!
A bird whose whole body is burning with red flames!?
This was the first time Yunze saw such a strange beast.
But with just one glance, he moved his gaze away and focused it again on the black sword at Zu Changdao's feet.
Saw this sword again!
Yunze turned to look at Li Po and found that she was already kneeling on the ground and had no time to care about him, so he took out another piece of useless fairy jade.
The fairy jade suddenly trembled and kept flying upwards, as if something in the air was attracting it!
Yunze did not dare to take risks and hurriedly put the fairy jade back into the Sumeru Ring. He stopped looking at the black sword and focused his attention on the fire bird opposite Zu Changdao!
There was a figure standing on top of the firebird. Since he was too far away, Yunze couldn't tell whether he was a man or a woman, let alone what kind of attire he was wearing.
But I think the person who could make the ancestor come out to greet him in person must be a big shot.
The two chatted for a few words in the air, but Yunze couldn't hear what they were saying clearly. He only knew that not long after, the firebird began to swoop towards the bottom of the solitary peak, and the ancestor master followed closely behind!
The target is exactly where he is!
Yunze subconsciously wanted to get up, but a pressure came down, preventing him from getting up, so he could only sit there.
Um?
What's happening here?
Yunze looked up into the air and found that as the firebird got closer and closer, the surrounding temperature continued to rise!
Fine sweat had soaked his clothes, and in the next moment... he finally saw clearly the existence above the Fire Bird!
It was a woman wearing a red robe and a red feather cloak.
She is very similar to Wei Lanshu, but her eyebrows are a little less childish and more majestic. It seems that even if she doesn't speak, she can become the center of everyone's worship just by standing there.
This is a temperament that can only be cultivated by people who have been in high positions for a long time.
Just when Yunze was stunned, the firebird landed on the ground.
The moment the firebird that originally covered the sky and the sun landed, it turned into a bird the size of a parrot and landed on the woman's shoulder. His eyes swept across the clouds, and there seemed to be a hint of disgust in his eyes.
The woman's gaze also swept across Yunze, without any emotion in her eyes, as if she was just looking at him.
"Servant, Li, I have met the master of the house!"
Li Po's voice sounded, and she bowed in the direction of the woman!
The woman turned to look at Po Li, her eyes still indifferent, and she just replied indifferently.
"rise."
"Thank you, Master!"
After thanking Lipo, she stood up, folded her hands in front of her like a quail, and waited for instructions.
At this moment, Zu Changdao also fell from the sky. He naturally saw Yunze sitting at the stone table and hurriedly used his eyes to signal him to get up and greet him.
The other party is a guest from afar. I, the sect leader, am standing, but you, an outer disciple, dare to sit down? Are there any rules?
Yunze looked helpless.
He wanted to get up, but... he couldn't get up at all!
Just when he was about to ask the sect leader for help, the woman spoke.
"Are you that Yunze?"
Why does everyone like to ask this?
"Back to senior, it's me."
Yunze replied respectfully, but found that he still couldn't get up, so he could only smile bitterly, and sat there with his hands in his hands: "Junior has seen... Senior! What are you doing!"
Before Yunze could finish speaking, the woman turned around, bent down and bowed towards Yunze!
At this bow, both Li Po and he were dumbfounded, and even Zu Changdao next to him was stunned!
"Wei Huang, thank you for saving my life on behalf of my little girl."
Yunze now knew why he couldn't get up.
This co-author is waiting for me here!
From this point of view, this person is not an unreasonable person, and he is not as demonic as Li Po made him out to be.
Just when Yunze was about to respond politely and tell them about their brother-sister relationship, Wei Huang's voice sounded again.
"Thank you. I wonder when you will return my daughter's belongings?"
Um!?
Yunze looked confused, it turned out that the purpose was still that drop of blood...
But it doesn't matter, this is other people's things. If Xiao Shu wants it, just give it back to Xiao Shu.
But it's best to use up all the sword energy before proceeding.
After all, only when this drop of blood is in his sea of qi can the sword qi be consumed quickly.
As long as I tell this person, she should be able to understand.
Yunze found that the coercion had disappeared from his body, but he had no intention of getting up. He just sat there and said, "You can return it. It belongs to Xiao Shu, but..."
Wei Huang said nothing and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Unbeknownst to others, Li Po knew that every time the head of the family showed this expression, he wanted to kill someone!
Wei Huang said coldly: "But what?"
"We need to wait until the sword energy consumption is over."
Yunze didn't know that the other party already wanted to kill him, so he just said according to what he thought: "Only when that object is in my sea of qi, can it consume the sword energy quickly. If you want to kill the sword in Xiao Shu's body within three months,
After the energy is consumed, the divine object will have to stay in my sea of energy for a while longer."
"...In this case, it doesn't matter."
Wei Huang seemed a little surprised by this answer.
She turned to look at her mother-in-law: "Where's the lady?"
"In the cave, I will call her out right now."
Li Po hurriedly entered the cave, and only Yunze, Wei Huang, and Zu Changdao were left outside.
The air suddenly fell into silence.
Yunze's eyes subconsciously fell on the black sword.
"Ahem."
Zu Changdao coughed twice, breaking the calm, turned to look at Yunze and asked: "Yunze, I remember you.
As the only person from my Wujian Sect who has made it to the top of the Heavenly Ranking, do you have anything that you feel uncomfortable with after joining the sect for one month? If so, please bring it up and I will do my best to satisfy you."
