Not to mention winning, it was already very difficult to survive in Yun Ziyuan's hands. This woman had lost her mind and completely regarded Flower Wind Tower as her own. Therefore, the girls she chose were all ugly and could not be seen by mortals, let alone Wind Flower Pavilion.
Who would have thought that Nangong Xiaoxiang, such a heavenly beauty, would be chosen by Flower Wind Tower at a glance.
Although Nangong Xiaoxiang was famous in the Chinese server, she also had the cultivation of the Four Symbols Second Order. However, after coming here, he had never felt so powerless.
Her battle with Yun Ziyuan was like the difficult version of her battle with the dozen or so experts. At that time, she could still deal with it. After all, cultivation was suppressing her. This time, she was being suppressed.
And it was a woman who was jealous.
Therefore, Yun Ziyuan's every move was fatal and merciless.
Nangong Xiaoxiang was not her match. She was forced to retreat and was eventually pushed into the valley.
In the valley, Nangong Xiaoxiang fell into the forest. The tree branch acted as a buffer, and at least he managed to save his life. However, he still broke a leg and suffered countless injuries.
At this moment, a man carrying firewood on his back walked over and saw Nangong Xiaoxiang hanging on the treetops. She was still breathing. He hurriedly removed the firewood on his body, placed Nangong Xiaoxiang in the basket on his back, and carried her back to his residence.
This man was not an ordinary woodcutter. Nangong Xiaoxiang saw that although his residence was simple, it was decorated elegantly. He also knew how to read and was familiar with music.
While collecting herbs to treat Nangong Xiaoxiang's short legs, he took out his zither and flute and played a song to relieve Nangong Xiaoxiang's boredom.
Nangong Xiaoxiang listened to the tune as if it was telling a story. Moreover, this was not an ordinary zither song. The man had infused his mystic qi into the zither song, forming a unique cultivation technique. It could relieve boredom in leisure, but in battle, a slight change could hurt people.
Nangong Xiaoxiang knew that he wasn't ordinary, so she asked him where he came from.
"I am the deposed Crown Prince of Miluo, Baili Xiaoyao.”the man said.
"What a good name. If you were in the Imperial Palace, it would truly be called Carefree and Unfettered. Living in seclusion in such a place is worthy of your name.”Nangong Xiaoxiang thought that he was an elegant person, but she didn't know the reason.
"I'm ashamed. I didn't mean to live in seclusion. Instead, he was framed by his half-brother and was forced to live here.”Baili Xiaoyao said.
No wonder there was a tinge of sadness in his music. It turned out that there was such a story.
"Then have you ever thought of going back for revenge?”Nangong Xiaoxiang asked him.
"Yes, I have. But with my current realm, I can't leave this valley. Besides, I've been here for a long time, and I've gradually grown fond of this kind of peaceful life. I've already looked down on those worldly fame and fortune. It's better to be happy here.”Baili Xiaoyao's zither music suddenly became gentle. This was probably his other state of mind.
"Is this place still Centaurea Valley's territory?”Nangong Xiaoxiang was worried that Flower Breeze Tower would come looking for them.
"No, Flower Wind Tower can't control them. In terms of paradise, other than the Cloud Sea Celestial Mountain, which had the support of an immortal, no one else could enter. This place could be considered a place where no outsiders would come.”Baili Xiaoyao said.
This way, Nangong Xiaoxiang could rest assured. She could recuperate here and improve her realm.
"I see that you are already at the Four Symbols Second Order Realm. You still can't leave this valley?”Of course, Nangong Xiaoxiang had to plan the way out.
"You have to be at least at the fourth rank of the Four Symbols, and you have to be at the peak of your Great Decay before you cross the fifth tribulation.”Baili Xiaoyao said.
"That high? Just the Great Decay was enough to wait. It would probably be very difficult to get out without thirty to fifty years.”Nangong Xiaoxiang was very disappointed.
"You don't have to be so pessimistic. I'm cultivating so slowly because I'm alone and have no help. Besides, I don't want to leave the valley. If you want to leave, I have a way to increase your cultivation in a short time.”Baili Xiaoyao said.
He had met an otherworldly expert! Nangong Xiaoxiang quickly asked him for advice.
"I obtained a pill recipe previously. On it was recorded the refining method of a pill. This pill could bring forward the Great Decay. Ordinary martial artists would know the exact date after two Great Declines. Therefore, they would hide from their enemies before the great decline. Once the enemy knew about the Great Decay, it would be very bad.”Baili Xiaoyao said.
Nangong Xiaoxiang knew that the bearded man had killed Situ Zheng at this time.
"But with this pill, we can change the date of the Great Decay, avoid our enemies, and speed up our cultivation.”Baili Xiaoyao continued.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's hurry and refine it.”
"Don't rush. The ingredients for this pill are extremely rare and expensive. Moreover, it's the most difficult animal material to obtain. At the very least, you can only do it after you've recovered from your injuries. Even if you get the materials, I don't recommend you try it. Because forcefully changing the time of the Great Decay was against the Heavenly Dao, the Great Decay would come more violently than it did naturally. It would cause the body, spirit, mystic qi, and all other states to decline. If he couldn't hold on halfway, he might die.”
"Are you going to use all the Great Declines at once?”Nangong Xiaoxiang asked.
"Of course not. Then he would definitely die. One pill could only shorten the time needed for one round, but this method was still too dangerous. No one dared to try it. There was a limit to how much a person's body could withstand. A major decline was like a serious illness. In fact, it was to get rid of the unfavorable factors in the body, so that he would never have the same illness again. The so-called Great Decay was actually a process of rebirth. If he passed the limit safely and had sufficient Profound Qi, he would naturally reach the Four Appearances Fourth Order. Only then did he possess the basic qualifications to transcend the fifth tribulation.”
It was only a basic qualification and could only guarantee that he would not die in the tribulation. Most people who had experienced surviving a great disaster would find it difficult to have the courage to challenge it again.
Therefore, ordinary Four Symbols Tier Four martial artists would have to prepare for at least 30 years before they dared to try. Then how did an expert like Flower Breeze Tower do it? Looking at his age, he was not even thirty years old.
In other words, there must be someone who quickly passed the Great Decay. The method used was probably in this pill formula.
Baili Xiaoyao advised Nangong Xiaoxiang to think it through. However, Nangong Xiaoxiang had already made up her mind. She didn't want to be an old man by the time she reached the level of five spirits. At that time, what was the use of cultivating it?
The cultivation of Xuan Qi was a difficult and challenging process. If those young experts could do it, why couldn't Nangong Xiaoxiang?
Seeing Nangong Xiaoxiang's insistence, Baili Xiaoyao stopped trying to dissuade her and focused on treating her injuries. He also saw that Nangong Xiaoxiang had such a high understanding of music, so he taught her his self-created cultivation method. Nangong Xiaoxiang also taught each other the techniques passed down in her family.
While they were healing, the two of them would play the zither and discuss music. There was some progress in martial arts, and he had gained quite a lot.
It would take a hundred days for a broken bone to break, let alone a broken leg. However, with Baili Xiaoyao's careful care and Nangong Xiaoxiang's mystical Qi self-healing, she was able to recover. A broken leg was originally a permanent injury, but it actually took a month for it to heal completely.
At this moment, Baili Xiaoyao brought him on a sightseeing tour. The scenery in the valley was beautiful. She was so happy that she forgot about the pill formula.
One day, Baili Xiaoyao wanted to burn something by the furnace. Nangong Xiaoxiang hurried forward to stop him. She saw that the pill formula had been burned.
"What are you doing?" Nangong Xiaoxiang asked him anxiously.
"This is the recipe for the decline pill, it's the only one in the world. By burning it, no one would know the method to refine this harmful pill, and no one would lose their lives for it.”Baili Xiaoyao said.
"But I need it!" Nangong Xiaoxiang felt that it was a pity and was also very angry. This was the only way for her to quickly reach the fourth rank of the four symbols. Did she really have to wait another 30 to 50 years? That was something she could never do.
"There are thousands of ways to cultivate in the world. Why do you have to take risks?”Baili Xiaoyao said.
"But I only know this method now. Other people won't tell me their exclusive secret recipe. I really don't want to lose anymore. Do you know why I fell into the valley? It's not that I want to cause trouble. It's someone else who wants to kill me, and I can't beat her! Do you know that in this world, people won't let you off just because you want to live! The only way to survive was to be stronger than others!”Nangong Xiaoxiang said sternly.
She knew that no one would dare to touch her if she relied on anyone. Perhaps it was Beiming Junye, or even worse, there was still her elder brother Marquis.
But she didn't want to. She was born to be strong. She did not want to live in the shadow of others and become a canary in a cage. She wanted to create a world with her own abilities. Was there anything wrong with that?
A woman without talent is virtuous. With your looks, you can easily find a good husband. Why do you have to work so hard?
Countless people had advised Nangong Xiaoxiang like this. How were her childhood playmates now? Whose family did she marry into? She was living like a prince on a high bed. When she was old, she felt angry but helpless as she watched her man take one, two, or even more side rooms.
After that, he fell into the family struggle of scheming. Day after day, he fought until he was burnt and his mind was hurt.
Their men, on the other hand, still had the leisure to smell the flowers and plants, and they were still hale and hearty at the age of 60. He fought three battles a day, but he abandoned them like rubble.
Why did men have more choices? It was because they occupied more resources, their ability, and status. If it was a woman, it would not be impossible.
Nangong Xiaoxiang wanted to be that kind of woman, a woman that all the men in the world would willingly bow down to. He was not only mesmerized by her beauty, but also by her strength.
Therefore, every time Nangong Xiaoxiang saw her, she would stare straight at her and swear that she would protect her. Nangong Xiaoxiang would reject such a man no matter how outstanding he was.
Why does this lady need your protection!
Only Beiming Junye was different. Only he could understand Nangong Xiaoxiang's heart.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:122120183:43AM
