Early in the morning, Yin Xianyin, Helan Zhixuan, Ji Qingxi, Lu Xiao, Zhao Shizhe, and Ping Yuxiao had already set off for the Jinshuo Dynasty. On the way to the Jin Shuo Dynasty, they had their own thoughts.
On the surface, Helan Zhixuan and Ji Qingxi had no choice but to embark on the journey to save the Central Plains of the martial arts world. However, they knew that it was originally their mission to leave the Divine Religion and travel around the martial arts world. Perhaps they would have an unexpected harvest.
Early this morning, Yin Xianyin, Helan Zhixuan, Ji Qingxi, Lu Xiao, Zhao Shizhe, and Ping Yuxiao had already set off for the Jin Shuo Dynasty. On the way to the Jin Shuo Dynasty, they had their own thoughts.
On the surface, Helan Zhixuan and Ji Qingxi had no choice but to embark on the journey to save the Central Plains of the martial arts world. However, they knew that it was originally their mission to leave the Divine Religion and travel around the martial arts world. Perhaps they would have an unexpected harvest.
Regarding Lu Xiang's matter, as the representative of the Kunlun Sect, Zhao Shizhe was naturally obliged to go to the Jin Shuo Dynasty. If this matter could not be resolved smoothly, the Kunlun Sect would not be able to give an explanation to the martial arts world. Thus, Zhao Shizhe was under great pressure.
Lu Xiao's physical and mental suffering was not as good as Zhao Shizhe's. He was someone whose life was in danger, but no matter what the outcome was, he had already made up his mind to live these days well. His greatest characteristic was his optimism and his hope for life.
Ping Yuxiao had come here with the mission of revitalizing the Sword Manor. His goal seemed the purest on the surface.
As for Yin Xianyin, she seemed to be doing this for the sake of the entire martial arts world. However, she was too enthusiastic as she was from the Dark Silk Palace, which made people feel that her motives were not simple.
After traveling for almost a day, they arrived at an inn to rest at night.
At dinnertime, everyone gathered at a table and prepared to eat. The dining table was very quiet.
Lu Xiao glanced at the other five and said,""On the way, everyone had a solemn expression on their faces. We're not going to die, we're going to do something big. There was no need for everyone to have such stiff expressions. Yin Xianyin, why don't you tell us something about the Jin Shuo Dynasty? In the entire martial arts world, only the Dark Silk Palace is familiar with that place.”
"That's right," Ji Qingqing said."Our Heavenly God Cult knows nothing about that place. It's better for us to understand the situation first.”
"Alright then, let me tell you about Jin Shuo's condition." Jinshuo's territory was equivalent to half of Shu. It was a dynasty that had just been established more than 200 years ago and bordered the Central Plains. The emperor of the Jin Shuo Dynasty was called Yang Huo. The Yang family had been the supreme ruler there for more than two hundred years. Yang Huo's father and Yang Huo himself were both extravagant and licentious people. His palace was very luxurious and gorgeous, but his people had to worry about food and clothing. Yang Huo has deposed two queens, and the current queen is called Yin Bishan. I've never seen her before, but I heard that she's a woman with unparalleled beauty. Not only does she have Yang Huo's affection, but she's also extremely scheming and cruel. She also knows how to please Yang Huo. Yin Bishan's family's influence in the court has also gradually expanded…"
"Sorry to interrupt, I was just curious. Is Yin Bishan as pretty as you?”Ji Qingxi revealed a mysterious smile.
When the other four heard Ji Qingxi's question, they also looked at Yin Xianyin with bright eyes, waiting for her answer, indicating that they were also looking forward to Yin Xianyin's answer.
Yin Xianyin shot them a few glances. Hmph, so what if they're young and handsome? They're all just prodigals! " It seems like you five young heroes are more interested in Yin Bishan than the antidote," Yin Xianyin said with a smile.”
The corners of Helan Zhixuan's mouth curled up into a moving arc as she said,"This is also human nature, because you just used 'unparalleled' to describe her beauty.”For Yin Xianyin, one of the three great beauties of the martial arts world, to use this word, it was obvious that she was extraordinarily beautiful.
Even the most steady Zhao Shizhe couldn't wait to ask,""Could it be that the three beauties in our martial arts world are not as good as her?”
Yin Xianyin sighed. They were starting to reveal their hidden sides. This great beauty wasn't interested in describing another beauty. However, in order to satisfy everyone's curiosity, she said lazily,"I think so. When we reach the palace, you might have a chance to meet her. However, he heard that she was also a famous slut. Yang Huo was so mesmerized by her that he could even tolerate Yin Bishan cheating on her. So, don't expect too much.”
However, everyone didn't dwell on Yin Bishan's debauchery. Instead, they thought about it from another perspective. "I really want to meet her," Lu Xiao said in a very serious tone. After all, a woman who could make an emperor endure such a state must be beautiful to a certain extent!”
Sigh, a bunch of hopeless wastrels. Yin Xianyin didn't want to continue telling them about the Demon Empress and continued,""The Jinshuo Dynasty also has no lack of martial arts experts. Because Yang Huo is fatuous and cowardly, he is afraid of being assassinated. The leader of the guards was called Qi Wushang. He was a person with outstanding martial arts skills and was loyal to the Jin Shuo Dynasty.
The Jin Shuo Dynasty had a few powerful officials. The first was the Hanlin King, Yang Lin. He was Yang Huo's younger brother from the same father and mother and had always had a good relationship with Yang Huo. Therefore, he was Yang Huo's only brother who had power in the court.
The second was an old minister, Duke Cheng, Li Huozhang. He was a benevolent minister who won the hearts of the people. He had once been the teacher of Crown Prince Yang Huo, and Yang Huo respected him very much.
The third was the notorious general, Yuwen Zhuan. He had a strong army and was ruthless. Many loyal officials had died at his hands.
Right, other than these three people, we must also emphasize a person called 'Qi Wushang.' He is also an expert, a commander of the Imperial Army. His martial arts should not be inferior to ours.”
"Where is the antidote? How should we act?" asked Ping Yuxiao.”This kid finally spoke. He had always been the most low-key one because he was so insignificant in front of the other arrogant people.
" There's no rush," Yin Xianyin said." I'll tell everyone about this when we get to Jin Shuo." Alright, the dishes are almost served. Let's eat first.”At this moment, the waiter served the dishes.
Lu Xiao stared at the food, looking especially energetic. He picked up his chopsticks and began to wolf down the food. As he ate, he said,"I'm really hungry on the way here."
The others also started eating. After a day of traveling, everyone was hungry. Yin Xianyin saw that Helan Zhixuan was holding her chopsticks but didn't move, so she said,"?" Helan, don't you have an appetite?"
Helan Zhixuan frowned slightly. She didn't dare to compliment the way these people ate, especially Lu Xiao. She really didn't dare to probe further. "I'm not used to eating with so many people," he said.”
Zhao Shizhe glanced at Helan Zhixuan. He didn't have a good impression of this guy and said,"Young Master Jialan, we have an important mission to complete.”
Although Ping Yuxiao and Lu Xiao didn't say anything, they looked at Helan Zhixuan with disdain.
Ji Qingxi had enough of this delicate young master and sneered."My young master Helan Zhixuan, can you not be so precious?”
Helan Zhixuan had offended everyone with that sentence just now. Now that he saw that everyone's gazes towards him were not very friendly, he could only obediently pick up the vegetables and stuff them into his mouth, chewing with difficulty.
Ji Qingxi felt that the plate of braised lion's head was especially delicious and stared at it for a long time. Just as he was about to pick up a piece of lion's head with his chopsticks, the food he liked was snatched away by Zhao Shizhe. Ji Qingxi missed and glared fiercely at Zhao Shizhe. Only then did Zhao Shizhe realize what Ji Qingxi meant. He smiled at Ji Qingxi in embarrassment.
Ji Qingxi didn't appreciate it. Young Master Xue had this personality. He coldly said,""Loser!"
Zhao Shizhe was already brooding over the poem he lost to Ji Qingxi previously, so when he heard the words 'Ji Qingxi', he said mercilessly,""A defeated opponent's defeated opponent!"
The other four people who were eating stopped when they heard their duel. They saw Ji Qingxi and Zhao Shizhe staring at each other with hostility. They were all young and frivolous, and they were also unwilling to submit to others.
Lu Xiao was stunned for a moment before ignoring the cold war. He was the most open-minded person after being poisoned. He began to eat his food again.
After a moment of stalemate, Ping Yuxiao advised,""Our mission this time is of great significance. Please don't act on impulse. You must put aside your personal grudges and put the overall situation first.”
"Haha." A crisp and charming laugh rang out, and Yin Xianyin said,""That's right. After we complete the mission, you can settle your personal grudges however you want.”
Zhao Shizhe thought of the heavy responsibility he had to shoulder, the honor and disgrace of the Kunlun Sect, and the safety of the martial arts world. He immediately smiled and said,""Zhao Shizhe knows that his martial arts can't match Young Master Ji Qingxi. If he offended you, please forgive him.”
Seeing that Zhao Shizhe's apology was to the point, Ji Qingxi couldn't say anything else. However, after hearing Zhao Shizhe's words, she became even more frustrated. However, if he continued to be unforgiving, it would seem like Zhao Shizhe was broad-minded. He was being unreasonable, so Ji Qingxi could only pick up another piece of braised lion's head and continue eating.
Helan Zhixuan's gaze was fixed on Zhao Shizhe. Helan felt that Zhao Shizhe was indeed able to yield and stand up. He was concerned about the big picture and was a real man. Zhao Shizhe's breadth of mind was not something that ordinary people had. Whether he was really a modest gentleman or he was pretending to be something for his own desires, what Zhao Shizhe could do, Helan Zhixuan's personality definitely could not do it. The extraordinary bearing that Zhao Shizhe displayed could not help but make Helan Zhixuan feel inferior.
It was late at night. Helan Zhixuan sat alone on the roof and looked at the moon. He held the red string with the copper coin in his hand. For him, this copper coin not only had his concern for Ying Qian, but it was also his only memory of his childhood. He had a sister and relatives in this world.
Helan Zhixuan was lost in thought when he suddenly felt a bone-piercing chill behind him. He suddenly turned his head. Everything was as calm as before, but what was that chill just now!
The cold light chilled his heart.
Helan Zhixuan subconsciously looked at the night jade in her hand, but there was still nothing strange. Could it be an illusion again? However, the illusion this time was different from the previous ones. It only felt strange. This time, it felt a little terrifying.
Helan Zhixuan turned around, still struggling with that strange cold light just now. It was like a pair of cold eyes that emitted some kind of deep meaning. It actually made him think like this. Ever since he had left the Divine Religion, more and more questions had plagued him.
With a dazed expression, someone sat down beside Helan Zhixuan. He immediately put away the copper coins and turned to look. It was Yin Xianyin. Just looking at her flawless face was a form of enjoyment.
Sensing that someone had sat down beside him, he put away the copper coins and turned his head to see that it was Yin Xianyin. Just looking at her flawless face was a form of enjoyment.
"What are you thinking about?" Yin Xianyin asked coquettishly. An expert shouldn't allow himself to get close to someone without feeling anything.”
Helan Zhixuan also said with a teasing tone,"If even a beauty with superb qinggong can't do it, who else in the world can do it without me noticing?”
"Why aren't you asleep yet?" Yin Xianyin asked.”
"Aren't you the same?" It can't be because you want to accompany me, right?"
Yin Xianyin saw that Helan Zhixuan didn't take her words to heart at all and felt a little disappointed. This guy didn't know which of his words were true and which were false. "Helan Zhixuan, I'm serious. Can you stop talking to me in this tone?" she said, feeling wronged. Do you have something on your mind?"
Helan Zhixuan could feel her sincerity in his heart. He changed his tone and said,"Everyone in the world has their own worries, don't they?”
Yin Xianyin stared at the man with a sorrowful expression and said gently,""I sincerely hope that you won't always ignore what I say. Can you tell me what's on your mind? Perhaps I can help you."
" Alright then, let me ask you," Helan Zhixuan said." Between me and Zhao Shizhe, if you had to choose, who would you like more?"”
Yin Xianyin was shocked by this question. Did he misunderstand that she was a promiscuous woman? She whimpered,""You…what do you mean? I have no interest in Zhao Shizhe.”
Helan Zhixuan stared into Yin Xianyin's clear and intoxicating eyes. "What do you like about me, then?" he asked.”
"Did I say I like you?" Yin Xianyin asked shyly.”
Helan Zhixuan smiled. So Yin Xianyin knew how to be shy. Usually, she did not hide her good feelings for him. Looking at Yin Xianyin like this, Helan Zhixuan felt that she was cuter than usual. He said,"Then let me tell you very seriously, I don't like Zhao Shizhe. From the first time I saw him on Mount Kunlun, I didn't like him.”
"You don't like Zhao Shizhe?" Yin Xianyin asked curiously. You don't have to explain this to me. Whether you like him or not doesn't affect me.”Actually, she just wanted to know how much he liked her.
Helan Zhixuan said in disappointment," There are some things that can't be said. Zhao Shizhe, he will definitely become a great hero respected by martial artists in the future!”
"If Zhao Shizhe can do it, so can you, Helan Zhixuan!" Yin Xianyin said.”In her heart, Helan Zhixuan was not inferior to anyone else.
Helan Zhixuan smiled and shook her head,"It's impossible for me to have a chance. The heavens didn't give me this chance. I'm destined to be a person who serves as a foil to those great heroes. Perhaps there will be a day when I will be despised by the world.”
Seeing Helan Zhixuan's difficulties, Yin Xianyin didn't ask for the reason anymore. Her understanding of the Heavenly God Sect was still very shallow, but she could see that Helan Zhixuan's wish was to be a true hero who had the world in his heart and was admired by thousands of people. But why did he indulge himself and look at the world coldly? In Yin Xianyin's eyes, Helan Zhixuan was a mystery that she could never see through. She wanted to get closer to his heart, but an iceberg blocked her way. "Not everyone in the world will abandon you, at least I will never, no matter what you do in the future."”
Helan Zhixuan looked at Yin Xianyin tenderly, and Yin Xianyin stared at him in a daze. He reached out and caressed her beautiful face."In this world, I don't trust anyone but myself! Alright, it's late at night. I still have to continue on my journey tomorrow, so I'm going to sleep first.”After saying that, Helan Zhixuan jumped off the roof.
He left like the wind, and Yin Xianyin felt an inexplicable sadness. She wiped the corner of her eyes with her hand and realized that there were tears.
Early in the morning, Helan Zhixuan was awakened by a knock on the door. He got up and asked,"Who is it?"
"Lu Xiao!"
"Wait a minute." Helan Zhixuan put on her clothes and opened the door. She asked," What's the matter?”
Lu Xiao said," Everyone's up except you. I'm here to call you to have breakfast together. We're about to set off again."”He jumped into Helan Zhixuan's room.
Helan Zhixuan looked at Lu Xiao. He didn't look like someone who was poisoned and in danger. He Lan started to admire this man's sunshine.
"Hey, why are you looking at me like that?" Lu Xiao asked. Didn't you not allow me to look at you like this in the past?”Helan Zhixuan was so domineering. She could make things difficult for others like that!
"I'm finding you more and more adorable."”
"You're comforting a person who doesn't have long to live, right?”
"Don't worry, we'll definitely get the antidote. I don't want you to die so quickly.”
"You can't bear to part with me?"
"Even so."
"I finally feel that you have some conscience today!" Lu Xiao laughed.”His palm tightly gripped Helan Zhixuan's arm. Lu Xiao wasn't sure why either. After the first time he met He Lan, he had hoped to become life and death friends with He Lan Zhixuan. Even if He Lan treated him coldly, he was still willing to treat him sincerely. Perhaps meeting He Lan was his destiny.
Helan Zhixuan's other hand also grabbed Lu Xiao's hand on his arm. He started to be moved by Lu Xiao's enthusiasm. In his heart, he had long regarded Lu Xiao as a friend. Otherwise, he would not have been worried about Lu Xiao's life and death. He began to feel that the worries in his heart were increasing. Lu Xiao saw a very exquisite bundle on the table and fiddled with it curiously. He Lan Zhixuan said,"If you like to look, then carry it on your back along the way. I'll let you look as much as you want."”
Lu Xiao was puzzled. Helan Zhixuan had never been a generous person. Could it be? "For me?" he asked.
"Dream on! To be my friend, you must give something. I'm giving you a chance to help me carry my luggage." Helan Zhixuan smiled and walked out of the door. Lu Xiao bit his lips. She was still so heartless! He had no choice but to carry this burden. He really couldn't figure out why he was so willing to listen to Helan Zhixuan. After all, he was someone who only knew how to bully his fellow disciples in the Sacred Light Sect. This time, he actually played the role of being bullied.
On this day, the six of them set off without stopping. Just like that, they walked for five days and were already approaching the territory of the Jin Shuo Dynasty. What was waiting for them?
Helan Zhixuan always felt that the inexplicable cold light came too suddenly, as if it was hiding another secret. His unique intuition told him that this trip to Jin Shuo was not a blessing. His heart was filled with waves and confusion, and he could not calm down for a long time.
