Time flew by. The seasons changed continuously, and the flowers bloomed in spring and the fruits in autumn. Four years had passed in a hurry, and in the blink of an eye, everything had changed. Heavenly Star Continent Calendar, Heavenly Star Year 438, Autumn. The ground was already withered and yellow leaves were flying on the trees. It was already late autumn. To the south of Ziyue Kingdom, the originally barren and nameless valley had somehow become beautiful and pleasant in the past four years. The valley was filled with red maple trees and all kinds of exotic flowers and plants. At the same time, there were also many rare and strange beasts living here, especially a kind of fiery red bird whose name was unknown. It occupied half of the forest in the valley. Their bodies were fiery red and blended with the red maple leaves. It was usually difficult to discover them. Only when they let out a melodious cry would they be able to determine their exact location. Other than that, there were many other exotic beasts that I won't list one by one. The place where Zhang Zixun had fallen four years ago was a place overgrown with weeds. Now, many unknown and beautiful flowers had miraculously bloomed. It was a lively scene. As they got closer, they could see that Zhang Zixun's body was covered in flowers and grass. Even her clothes were not damaged at all. Perhaps it was because of the immortal energy on her body, but there was a green area around her. Although there were no signs of autumn in other places, the degree of brightness was obviously much lower. Although Zhang Zixun had no intention of waking up, her breathing was still stable. She had not changed in the past four years, whether it was her appearance or her body. All of this was probably due to the purple butterfly dream in her hand. Since the moment she fainted, it had always surrounded her with a protective barrier. This was also the reason why Zhang Zixun was not affected by the outside world at all. Not only Zhang Zixun herself, but even the entire valley seemed to be enveloped by a wave of immortal energy, becoming somewhat ethereal. It also made the small monsters that had discovered this place long ago not dare to approach easily. Otherwise, even with the protection of the Primordial Divine Artifact, Zhang Zixun would not be able to escape the fate of being eaten.
South of the Ziyue Kingdom, inside the Thousand Caves Cave of the Thousand Caves Mountain. A man sat on the throne directly above. This person's entire body emitted a cold air. It was not the ordinary cold air, but the coldness that came from the netherworld that went straight to the depths of one's heart. It could not help but make one's hair stand on end. At this moment, the bewitching silver-haired, green-eyed Xuanyuan Qingjue, who was the king of all demons, was frowning. He seemed to have a lot on his mind, as if there was something he couldn't solve. However, what could it be that even this supreme expert of the Demon Realm could not do it? At this moment, footsteps came from the inner room. Xuanyuan Qingjue didn't move at all. He didn't even blink. He didn't need to think to know that it was the Foxy who was known as the most beautiful woman in the Demon Realm. However, this did not affect him at all. Because his heart had long been given to another person. As expected, Foxy's enchanting figure slowly walked out of the inner room with a jug of fine wine in her hand. She came in front of Xuanyuan Qingjue and saw the latter's cold expression. She frowned at first, but then she relaxed and smiled charmingly. "Your Majesty, what are you troubled about?" Come, drink a glass of wine and stop thinking about those unhappy things.”As she spoke, she brought the wine to Xuanyuan Qingjue's mouth. At the same time, his body was almost touching hers. The latter frowned in disgust and turned his face away. Foxy's seductive expression changed, but she didn't dare to say anything. In front of absolute strength, the weak could only lower their heads obediently.
"How's the matter I instructed you to do?”He finally spoke, but his tone was so cold that it could instantly freeze a person. Foxy knew that Xuanyuan Qing wasn't joking. Foxy, who had been by his side for so many years, was familiar with his temperament. She knew that whenever he talked about serious matters, his tone and expression would be like this. No one could not bow their heads under his pressure, including herself. Therefore, he immediately took a few steps back and said respectfully,"Your Majesty, I've sent more people to search everywhere in Ziyue Kingdom and even other small countries, but I still haven't found the person you're looking for.”As soon as she finished speaking, Foxy felt the cold air around her increase. She was startled and raised her head in fear. As expected, Xuanyuan Qingjue was looking at her with a pair of green eyes that were filled with a hint of killing intent. Foxy was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and explained in a panic,""Please forgive this subordinate for being incompetent. This subordinate will definitely find her as soon as possible and give you an explanation!”Xuanyuan Qingjue suddenly looked away. The former's body instantly relaxed. The latter sighed and said in a deep voice,""Sigh. Get up first. I can't blame you for this. She wasn't from this world to begin with. Maybe we're not fated to be together.”Foxy was shocked. After being by his side for so many years, when had she ever heard him sigh like this? When had she ever heard him say such negative words? Ever since he went down the mountain, he had been out of his mind, as if he had lost something. Four years ago, he actually drew a portrait of a woman and ordered all the mountain spirits to do their best to find her whereabouts. What was wrong with him? Foxy looked at him in confusion. This was not like the King of Demons who was decisive, ruthless, and never sloppy.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you today? This isn't like you." Foxy paused for a moment before she made up her mind and asked,""Foxy, may I ask, who is the woman you're talking about? Why did he say that she did not belong to this world? Could it be…" At this point, she did not dare to continue because she was afraid that if she guessed correctly, the consequences would be serious. Hearing this, Xuanyuan Qingjue pondered for a moment. His thoughts seemed to have returned to the inn where he first met Zhang Zixun. At that time, the latter was dressed in men's clothing and spoke very straightforwardly. The two of them sat opposite each other and drank happily. Unknowingly, Xuanyuan Qingjue's lips curled into a smile. Foxy was even more surprised. Because from this smile, one could see that it was filled with deep happiness and happiness. It was so warm. This was a completely different person from the usual King.
"Who could make him smile so happily? Who was it? Is it that woman?" As Foxy thought about this, she couldn't help but feel a hint of killing intent flash across her face. She clenched her fists tightly. The king was hers, and no one could take it away from her! She had been by his side for thousands of years in order to win his heart. She had persisted for so long. She definitely could not lose to a woman who had only met him a few times! No!
Not long after, Xuanyuan Qingjue seemed to have woken up from his memories. With a gentle smile on his face, he said slowly,""She's the most special girl I've ever seen. She's carefree and doesn't care about the consequences. He almost lost his life. I felt something I had never felt before, but it was also vaguely familiar. In short, this feeling was very subtle and could not be described with words.”As he spoke, Xuanyuan Qingjue's face was filled with intoxication and happiness. He seemed to be immersed in his memories again. The hatred in Foxy's heart increased."When has he ever shown such an expression to me? Who was it? To be able to charm him to such an extent! We can't let this woman live!" He thought fiercely in his heart. However, if he wanted to make a move, he had to know her background. Thus, he calmed down and asked carefully,""In that case, why did you say that she doesn't belong to this world? Could she be…" Foxy's expression changed drastically as she said this. At this moment, a thought appeared in her mind. The only people in this world who could make the king's city unable to find them were people from the Heaven Realm. Could this person be a fairy from the Nine Heavens? She couldn't believe it. However, her thoughts were immediately confirmed. Xuanyuan Qingjue said with a hint of melancholy and sadness,""You're right. She's a fairy from the Heavenly Court, and not an ordinary fairy. She's the third princess of the Jade Emperor, Zi Yan.”As soon as she finished speaking, Foxy couldn't help but take a few steps back. She had never expected that this person was really from the Heavenly Court, and she was a princess at that. She knew that if it was an ordinary immortal, she would not be afraid at all. However, no matter how capable she was, she would not dare to provoke the Jade Emperor's daughter. However, he thought about it again,'This isn't right. Since he's from the Heavenly Court, how can he descend to the mortal world so casually? Unless…" Foxy's lips curled into an imperceptible sneer when she thought of this possibility.
Her expression returned to normal. Looking at Xuanyuan Qingjue's sad face, her heart ached at first, but then she came up with a plan. He walked up to Xuanyuan Qingjue and comforted him,""Your Majesty, you don't have to be too depressed. So what if she was an immortal? With your strength, you can fight against the Heavenly Court long ago. If it really doesn't work, why don't we just charge into the Heavenly Court and snatch them back? There's no need to be sad now." Xuanyuan Qingjue looked at Foxy with a complicated expression. This was not like her usual self. However, he still smiled faintly."Thank you. It's been hard on you for following me all these years!”Foxy was stunned. A myriad of emotions surged in her heart, When did he ever say such words to her? Now, for another woman, he actually said such words to her!”Immediately, the hatred in his heart intensified.
"However, the immortal energy in her body seems to have been restricted and only half of it is left. Perhaps she was punished to descend to the mortal world because she violated some heavenly law, so she should still be in the mortal world.”Xuanyuan Qingjue said. Hearing this, Foxy was delighted. Things were much easier now!
"Report." At this moment, a person suddenly ran in from outside the cave. It looked like a small demon. Seeing this, Xuanyuan Qingjue's face turned cold again. Foxy asked seriously,""What is it? Tell me!" The little demon trembled and said hurriedly,""Reporting to Concubine Foxy, I was patrolling the mountain just now when I unexpectedly discovered a valley about a hundred miles away from here suddenly emitting bursts of purple light. I wonder what happened. I only know that the valley was barren four years ago. In these four years, the scenery has suddenly become beautiful. The valley is full of red maple trees. I don't know why.”Hearing that, Xuanyuan Qingjue, who was originally calm, suddenly sat up and shouted,""What did you say?" His sudden words scared the little demon so much that its legs kept trembling, and cold sweat seeped out of its forehead. He secretly complained in his heart, I told them I wasn't coming, but they insisted that I come to report. It was said that it was a great merit, but now, it might even lose its life.”Foxy saw him trembling and said sternly,""Hurry up and say it. The king doesn't mean to blame you!”As soon as he finished speaking, that person's heart instantly relaxed. He stammered,"Your Majesty, this subordinate said that an unknown purple light appeared in that valley. I don't know what's going on.”Xuanyuan Qingjue was greatly shocked by this. He thought about it carefully. If he was not mistaken, the light emitted by the Primordial Divine Artifact in Zhang Zixun's hand was purple. Without saying anything, he teleported in front of that person.""Bring me there!" Just like that, before the little demon could react, Xuanyuan Qingjue grabbed it and brought it out of the cave. Only Foxy was left standing on the spot with a face full of hatred. Her eyes were filled with hatred.
Ten miles away from the cave entrance.
"Great King, this won't do! The aura there is a bit strange. Little demons like us don't dare to get close at all. As soon as we get close, we feel very uncomfortable, as if all the strength in our bodies has disappeared.”Xuanyuan Qingjue, who had been flying in the air with him, was delighted when he heard this. It seemed that he had guessed correctly. Only immortal light could make small demons like them feel uncomfortable. So he put it down." Then don't go. I'll follow the light myself."”The man immediately nodded gratefully. Thank you, Great King!" However, he immediately said worriedly,"Your Majesty, you have to be careful too. That aura is extremely powerful. We don't dare to approach it at all."”Xuanyuan Qingjue nodded and disappeared. In a short while, he was already standing at the entrance of the valley. He focused his divine sense on his eyes and observed carefully. He found that this place was indeed surrounded by a powerful immortal energy. Otherwise, there would not be so many dense plants growing in this valley. However, what made him ecstatic was that he was especially familiar with this immortal energy. It came from the Primordial Divine Artifact in Zhang Zixun's hand. Therefore, he ignored the pain coming from his body and jumped down.
In the valley.
"Big Brother, do you think the Bai Clan and Sima Clan will be punctual for this three year agreement? I wonder how much Big Sister Bai and Big Brother Sima's strength has grown. Can anyone beat them?”It was a woman's voice. It sounded extremely pure and ethereal, as if there was no impurity at all. She looked at a man in a fiery red robe beside her and said. Xuanyuan Qingjue, who was hiding on the treetops, could see clearly that a group of people was coming from the other side of the valley. It turned out that there was a small path leading down the valley. There were a total of three people in this group, one woman and two men. They looked like ordinary mortals. Xuanyuan Qingjue remained calm and continued to observe. The woman walked in the middle, and on the left was a man in a silver-white robe with an elegant face. The man on the right was dressed in a fiery red robe. He looked slightly inferior to the man on the left, but he was still considered not bad. The woman had a delicate face and looked quite cute.
"Yan 'er, don't look at me. I know you want to mock me, but this time, I'm sure that I won't lose to them!”The red-robed man said confidently.
"Tsk, you? The last time during the Three Year Pact, didn't you lose to Big Brother Sima in less than a hundred moves?”The woman called Yan 'er rolled her eyes at him and said disdainfully. Xuanyuan Qingjue, who was on the tree, saw everything clearly."So you're a rising star in the world of martial artists, the younger generation of two of the four great families in the Ziyue Kingdom's martial arts world. He was also the successor. The man in white was Nangong Duxing, the eldest son of Nangong Tian, the master of Nangong Castle. The woman who was affectionately calling him big brother was called Nangong Yan. She was Nangong Duxing's biological sister. The man in red that Nangong Yan was making fun of was the only son of the Autumn Water Manor's Yu Yinhong, one of the four great clans. His name was Yu Yinzhao Bang.”After figuring out the background of this group of people, Xuanyuan Qingjue revealed himself and jumped down, instantly appearing in front of everyone. Of course, he had changed into a light green robe, which gave him a sense of mystery.
"Who is it?" Martial artists were far more sensitive than ordinary people. Therefore, when Xuanyuan Qingjue appeared, Yuyin Zhaobang and Nangong Duxing noticed him at the same time. Instantly, he drew his weapon and made the highest defense. What appeared in Nangong Duxing's hand was a silver spear. There was a faint flash of lightning on it. That's right. The master of Nangong Castle, who dominated a region, was famous in Jianghu for his " Thirteen Moves of Thunderous Spear Skill ". He founded Nangong Castle alone, and it had been more than twenty years since then. Nangong Duxing had already reached the fifth or sixth layer of his father's cultivation. It was already considered pretty good for a twenty-something-year-old like him. Nangong Yan hid behind her brother and watched the situation in front of her worriedly. Since she was young, Nangong Yan had been weak and sickly. Her father had not allowed her to practice martial arts, so now she was just a weak and ordinary woman. What appeared in the hands of the seal was a strange fiery red sword. The Autumn Water Manor was located in the east of Ziyue Kingdom. The manor master used a set of fire-type sword technique, the Burning Fire Heaven Slash. He was named after Nangong Tian and founded the Autumn Water Manor at the same time. The two were equally powerful. Among the younger generation, Nangong Duxing and Yuyin Zhaobang were the best friends. However, the latter was slightly inferior in terms of strength and appearance. The two of them looked at the person in front of them warily. They had accidentally discovered this Red Maple Valley when they came out to roam the martial world. No one else knew about it! Who was this person?
"Duxing, Zhaobang, don't you recognize me? We haven't seen each other for two years." Xuanyuan Qingjue said calmly. Hearing this, the three of them took a closer look and immediately relaxed. Nangong Yan even laughed as she stepped forward and said,"I was wondering who it was. So it was Ye You! You gave us a big jump!" As they spoke, the three of them stepped forward at the same time and greeted each other. It turned out that Xuanyuan Qingjue had not been idle in the past few years. He had used the alias Qi Yeyou to search for Zhang Zixun's whereabouts in the human world. During this period, he got to know Nangong and the others. However, it had been two years since they last met.
"You brat, where did you go? He had disappeared for such a long time?”Yuyin Zhaobang stepped forward and punched Xuanyuan Qingjue's shoulder. The latter didn't answer, only smiling.
"Alright, let's talk in the bamboo house.”Nangong said. Thus, the group of people walked forward. Suddenly, Nangong Yan's gaze shifted and she realized that there seemed to be someone in front of her. It seemed to be a woman."Brother, wait a moment. There seems to be someone in front.”Everyone followed her gaze and saw a stunning woman in a white dress lying in a bush in front of her. When Xuanyuan Qingjue saw her for the first time, he couldn't hide the ecstasy on his face. This was because this person was really the Zhang Zixun he had been searching for for four years.
