Chapter 480 What did you say?
……
Mingchuanfang.
Yihe Pond Garden.
Ning Mei took Jian Qiong and Ye Xi for a stroll around the house, chatting and laughing about the many rumors about the dispute over Tianxiang City in Zhongzhou. Shuyue and Qinghuan also followed them to listen and see how much difference there was between Zhongzhou and Yongning.
Jian Ting left on Zhao Qing's walking jade boat, heading to greet the many clan prodigies wearing blood-stained robes, such as Xiang Qin from Yan Chuanzhou's Mingyue Mansion, and Li Wushuang from the Jizhou Li Clan...
Some are of the same generation as him and Zhao Qing, while others are direct descendants of the great clans under the Blood Robe.
For example, Li Wushuang of the Li family is the younger brother of Li Suya of the Blood-Robed Nine Walks...
Zhao Qingshang might not be familiar with some of these people, but it would be easier to let Jian Ting deal with them. After all, Jian Xuezi of Zhongzhou has seen too many such scenes.
Moreover, it is only fitting that the host, Zhongzhou Xuezi, should make all the arrangements for the guests of Blood-Clothed to come to Zhongzhou.
After a few interactions, Jian Ting and Jian Qiong became the stewards of Zhao Qing's family.
Jian Ting helped deal with some old acquaintances from other states, while Jian Qiong accompanied Shuyue Hongning and Tang Shiqi to deal with some Yujing disciples who came to visit.
Zhao Qing naturally became a hands-off boss, and he was still very confident in Brother Tingzi.
Although the two were enemies in Longyuan before, and remained enemies in Tianxiang City...
But Zhao Qing knew clearly that since Jian Ting came to Broken Star to find him, it was obvious that he came to help sincerely.
Mr. Jian, who comes from an ancient clan in Zhongzhou, is an extremely down-to-earth person. He really has some of the demeanor of a great family. This can be seen from the fact that he personally went to Shattered Star to explain Jian Qiong's affairs clearly.
Besides, Zhao Qing was not afraid that he had any other thoughts. Suya, himself, and Senior Brother Yan... the three Xueyi were all traveling in Zhongzhou. As the head of an ancient clan, the Jian family would not be confused about what they should do.
There are side halls and small pavilions in the pond garden.
Zhao Qing glanced at his old junior fellow student before him, and said with a wistful smile, "I came to Zhongzhou before."
"The Danxia Sect of Chu State was actually founded by Cheng Yue, a disciple of Zizhu."
"When the Pill Tower opened, I had the honor of traveling with many alchemists from the Chu State to the Purple Pearl Holy Land to participate in the Pill Tower Trial..."
Miao Jian listened quietly, his eyes looking out the window in a daze.
He did not say much about his love and grudges with Shen Su, and Zhao Qing did not ask much either. He just smiled and sighed that he had not seen Shen Su for a long time, and he hoped to see him when he had the chance in the future.
Because Zhao Qing suddenly discovered that the situation was far beyond his expectations.
The Miao Jian who refused to believe in fate and refused to admit defeat has changed... He now never mentions his family feuds and old grudges, but only sighs that it has not been easy all these years, and he hopes that he will be able to reach a higher level in the future and see the vastness of the world.
Doesn’t he know that Shen Su is manipulating everything behind the scenes?
of course I know!
But she was the person who had been by his side for more than ten years...
"It's just that my alchemy skills were not good back then, so I failed to enter the fourth level of the Alchemy Tower and missed the opportunity to become a disciple of Yujing."
"However, we traveled together and were fortunate enough to meet Junior Sister Zhou, who was desperately seeking the elixir formula."
"After that, he returned to Chu State and wasted several years before becoming a Blood Robe disciple of the Changsheng Sword Sect. There were also Yujing cultivators in Chu State, but they were too few and their status was too high, so few people in ordinary clans knew about them."
Zhao Qing spoke casually, reminiscing about the past with his junior fellow apprentice whom he had not seen for more than ten years.
As for the relationship between Miao Jian and Shen Su, as well as the various secrets of the Heavenly Dao Fragments, he did not intend to say more to Miao Jian.
Zhao Qing roughly understood Qingying's meaning... Actually, he should ask Shen Su about these things.
As an ancient cultivator who survived the Dao calamity safely, Shen Su and Dao Xin Zhang Jie were not the same kind of people.
He should now represent Yujing's will and contact the Sixth Sword Master of Ruyi Immortal Sect. Only in this way can he understand why she told the truth to Miao Jian and what she wanted to do by doing this.
Zhao Qing felt strange.
Judging from the situation, Miao Jian is now completely in love. Between the old family feud and the person next to him, he chose the latter - even though Shen Su may have never treated him sincerely.
"Blood Robe Tower... Is there one in Danxia West Quarter?"
"Junior brother, you must be remembering correctly, right?"
Miao Jian's face showed a look of reminiscence, and his words were full of joy and curiosity.
"Danxia Blood Robe Tower has now been relocated to Nanze along with the sect, and it no longer resembles what it once was."
Zhao Qing chuckled and nodded, without mentioning much about his own Siyou Sect. Instead, he asked in a low voice, "Junior Sister Shen Su has been practicing in seclusion in the Ruyi Realm for how long?"
Shen Su...
Miao Jian suddenly laughed and drank alone: "Almost a month."
"Nine Swords disciples need to spend contributions to enter the Ruyi Realm, and Su'er will be coming out soon."
"I was originally going to the Nine Swords Ruyi Square to pick her up, but I happened to hear the rumors about the Star-Grabbing Terrace, so I couldn't wait to come and meet Brother."
Zhao Qing: ???
What do you mean by picking her up? Are you and Shen Su going to sleep together in the future?
He was speechless for a moment.
It was outrageous enough that he slept with Si He. Miao Jian didn't even let go of the enemy who had wiped out his clan. He actually treated an ancient cultivator who lived tens of thousands of years ago as his Taoist partner.
Uh--
It seems that not sleeping is even worse...
"Then if you change your route to Shattered Star, won't that delay your meeting with Junior Sister Shen Su?"
Miao Jian nodded with a smile, his eyes, no longer clear and resolute as they used to be, now flickered with anticipation: "So I'm going back now."
"I think Su'er also misses Senior Sister Shuyue very much."
"Brother, you're so busy here...why don't we meet in Tianxiang City and talk about it?"
Tianxiang City...
Zhao Qing raised his eyes slightly with a smile. Seeing the expectation in Miao Jian's cloudy eyes, he knew what was going on: "You and Shen Su, are you going to help me capture the city?"
Miao Jian nodded as a matter of course and said, "...and reminisce about the past."
"Brother, don't underestimate me. I can now truly slash a golden elixir with my sword! It would be even easier for this commoner to cross the border and strike!"
Yes Yes Yes.
If you can't even cross the border, then the Ruyi Immortal Sect has been in vain for all those years.
Zhao Qing was secretly happy about this. Now he didn't have to avoid Shen Su, as he had Shen Su as his father to help him... Although he was alone, he seemed to be invincible in the same realm.
He clinked his glasses, laughed heartily, and said to himself, "Then I'll take Shuyue with me and wait for you two in Tianxiang City. I really want to see what kind of skills and strength Junior Brother has now."
Miao Jian nodded heavily, his smile growing even brighter: "That's great... great..."
Hearing this laugh and sigh, Zhao Qing's heart suddenly stagnated for no reason, but he quickly responded with a smile and sent this junior brother from the 59th courtyard of Dingzi away from Mingchuanfang.
After Miao Jian left.
Zhao Qing couldn't help sighing, walking alone in the deep alleys west of Mingchuanfang, listening intently to the noise around him and gazing at the morning glow in the distant sky...
Even though Miao Jian didn't say much about his grudge against Shen Su.
But his cloudy and lonely eyes, and his carefree and cheerful manner of drinking and laughing, seemed to say it all.
What could he do?
Would he suddenly abandon his own opportunities? Would he turn against the person he had been with for over a decade? Would he cultivate his sword skills and write a letter to Zhang Jin seeking revenge? Would he go all out to make an enemy of the entire Yujing?
That's stupid.
Isn't it just a family feud? He is Ruyi Sword, and he has no connection with the Miao family.
Isn't it just a tool? His wife is an ancient cultivator from before the catastrophe, and he is willing to face the catastrophe for this.
Or rather... the past and old grudges are in the past, the person beside him is right beside him, and he doesn't want to worry about the unpredictable future.
In this world, live in the present.
He is very strong now, has great opportunities, and lives a good life in Zhongzhou.
He said that he could cut the golden elixir with his sword!
"Fortunately, my luck isn't always so bad..."
"Good teacher, you know that Miao Jian is now also extraordinary. It's easy for him to cut through the golden elixir with his sword..."
"I think Su'er also misses Senior Sister Shuyue very much..."
Zhao Qing was silent for a long time, and unconsciously revealed a relieved smile.
He vaguely remembered that when they parted at the kitchen that year, it was the morning of the White Dew.
It was just dawn when the drunken junior fellow took his Taoist companion away and followed Fatang to Nanze. He once said, "If it is really a lonely star that guides my life...Miao Jian, I will not accept it."
But when they met again more than ten years later, he no longer mentioned the past grudges.
On the contrary, he has said more than once that he can now cut through the golden elixir with his sword...
What else can he kill if not the golden elixir?
This Junior Brother Miao, whose fate was determined by a lone star, said in every word, "Miao Jian, I admit defeat."
Zhao Qing thought about it for a long time and suddenly felt that this was not a bad idea.
Miao Jian is not a person in the storybook, and this is not a story in the storybook.
Although the junior fellow from old years seemed unfamiliar, he was also familiar... He was just a little tired.
The mind was filled with gloomy thoughts, and the white-haired girl's cheerful laughter could be heard: "If suddenly one day, Shuyue also told you another story..."
Zhao Qing's expression froze for a moment, then he chuckled and replied, "So, I think Miao Jian is doing quite well."
……
·
The Star-Breaking Holy Land, the Thousand Puppet Hall.
In the spacious palace carved with lapis lazuli, the fragrance of tea wafts in the air, accompanied by endless whispers.
Small tables made of strange wood were scattered around, and many people from Yujing were walking around and sitting leisurely. The elder of the holy land, Ye Zhongjian, was also present.
There is no distinction in status among the cultivators, but as Ning Ye is a star shatterer, he can't help but preside over some of the meetings here.
Zhao Qing naturally brought Shuyue Qinghuan and Ningmei with him, while He Ma was still practicing and building her foundation in Yihechi Garden.
At this moment, his aunt also returned to his side, smiling sweetly at him. Zhao Qing could be said to have a beautiful woman at his disposal, and he was truly happy and carefree.
There was another person who was similar to him, except that his wives, concubines and Taoist companions were also leaning on wooden tables and sipping tea... Shuiyue had too many Taoist companions, and he only brought some of them to Tianxiang City this time, so there were already seventeen peerless fairies.
In addition to this Li Yan Xingzhao, there are also many beautiful and charming girls around Suixing Ning Ye.
But a doll is just a doll after all, and a puppet cannot compare to a beauty with flesh and blood.
"Just like the meeting with Long Yuan yesterday..."
"What's happening now is still related to Zhao Qing, tsk tsk tsk—"
Pi Wuwang chuckled and started talking, asking everyone to get down to business. Nangong Yao and Gu Nu were both gathered around Senior Sister Ying, leaving him, the bald man, all alone...
Isn't it related to me?
Zhao Qing looked back at the playful smiles on Nangong Yao and Brother Hu's faces, coughed lightly, and continued, "What a coincidence."
"Nine Swordsmen were not seen walking during the Longyuan period, and they are still absent now..."
cough cough.
He said seriously: "There must be some misunderstanding."
Seeing everyone looking at him, Zhao Qing didn't wait for them to ask any more questions and directly explained the whole story.
There's nothing overly complicated about it.
Huangfu Ming wanted to practice formation with him, but he didn't know how.
Xiaoyi broke Huangfu Ming's Juexian Formation, but Huangfu Ming was not convinced.
So I thought about trying Xiaoyi's formation.
then……
This is the current situation.
Huangfu Ming was taken to the Nine Swords Holy Land to recuperate, and the remaining ten were walking here to discuss matters.
And it is no different from Longyuan, the birth of Tianxiang Walking... Huangfu Ming still can't go there, even if he wants to go.
"I have a video recording here."
"Many Cuiyuan disciples are joining in the fun at the Star-Glancing Terrace~"
Nangong Little Loli smiled and immediately used a secret method to activate the mandarin duck jade in her hand, showing everyone the situation at that time, and she looked like she was gloating.
Although she had a good relationship with Huangfu and knew about the old grudge between Zhao Qing and Huangfu...this was really too funny.
Why would Huangfu Ming go out of his way to find someone to perform a formation, and be injured to the point where his Niwan Dao foundation and Dantian were completely shattered?
It's simply unbelievable...
A mysterious light curtain was projected out by the emerald jade, floating up and down in the hall where spiritual energy was flowing.
The scene on it is quite dreamy and beautiful, with stars crisscrossing the vast fairyland. A woman in black clothes is drawing a bow and arrow, showing her unparalleled beauty...
Everyone present saw the cold woman break the formation with one arrow, and when they looked at the beautiful woman in red beside Zhao Qing, they all showed a thoughtful expression.
Jiang Yanli lowered his tiger eyes slightly, holding his junior sister in his arms and secretly sipping tea with a playful look on his face.
He knew that this should be the magical eye technique that he had noticed something strange in Xiuyuan Yinxingchuan not long ago.
Nangong Yao remained silent, but glanced at Qu Ying'er beside her intentionally or unintentionally, obviously wanting to see what this Southern Immortal had to say.
Qu Ying'er's eyes were still somewhat lost in thought at this moment. She knitted her brows slightly as she whispered softly to herself, "What kind of formation is this?"
Ning Ye: ...
"Juexian."
"The Nine Swords lineage's formation is not my star-shattering method."
"A true Absolute Immortal Formation requires the combined efforts of at least eight Nascent Souls to break it."
He stared at the jade image while explaining calmly, without much surprise in his words.
"This is Heterochromia, Xuanji."
A woman's ethereal whisper echoed in the hall, revealing the truth in one word.
"Xuanji...?"
"It turns out that Fairy Zhou is so gifted... breaking the formation is a piece of cake for her."
Zhao Qing looked up in surprise, glanced at the puppet beside Ning Ye, and just nodded with a smile without saying anything more.
The voice that just exposed the aunt's tricks came from one of the puppets beside Ning Ye. It seemed that some master was speaking through the puppet, which was normal in the Broken Star Holy Land.
"Xiaoyi is really not good at formations, so she can only use the lightning formation to deal with it."
My aunt smiled and spoke softly, admitting that she had heterochromia.
Now that the twelve groups are almost all gathered together, it is impossible to hide it, and there is no need to deliberately cover up anything.
"I see……"
"Look down at the mountains, rivers, seas, and peaks; look up at the heavens and the sky."
"It is mentioned a lot in the ancient secret methods of stargazing, but the heaven and earth have been destroyed, and Yujing has long replaced the heaven and earth and the stars."
Qingrao's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and her gaze met Shuiyue's, but they remained silent.
They couldn't help but think of what happened in Mingshang Liangchuan City back then... Since Zhou Xiaoyi had heterochromia, why didn't she take action to break the formation?
But these are old things.
She was just curious in her heart, just like Qinghuan's Nine Wonderful Medicine Body, she spent her free time pondering and thinking about it.
Listening to the people walking around talking and laughing.
Holy Land Elder Ye Zhongjian immediately frowned.
The old man looked strange: "That's not right..."
"Huangfu Ming clearly fell for Miss Zhou's trick. Miss Zhou is extremely skilled in formations and extremely intelligent. He was lured into the formation because of a slight mistake..."
Zhao Qing: ???
