This was the imperial city at the end of autumn. The banyan trees were all nearly withered and bare with old and thick branches stretching out just like small hands reaching towards the sky. Some leaves on the branches were dry and red. The crescent was still vaguely hanging in the sky. The rays of the morning sun had crossed a thin and long line, just like the back of the whale that jumped over the sea surface.
The rotten leaves piled up under the banyan trees still remained the marks of the heavy rain last night.
Dawn just came like the tide before everything truly faded away.
The imperial city was gradually lit, adding radiance to the ancient city walls and grey tiles full of vicissitudes now.
The defending troops for the city were feeling the bright and dazzling morning sunlight with narrowed eyes. The palms of their hands holding the spears were full of calluses.
The horrifying scene that happened yesterday seemed
From the Immortal Forest to Lake Qifeng, Qiu Li walked along the path piled up with fallen leaves, followed by two armored guards dressed in black.Now, the ice and fire above Lake Qifeng had faded away. The calmness carried the unique bleakness of autumn. The imperial city that hadn’t been repaired was facing the lake, which appeared rather desolate to Qiu Li.Before yesterday, he was the chief disciple of the wizard patriarch of the Immortal Forest, who would inherit the ancient book and take over the throne of the wizard patriarch.Within one day, the world was turned upside down. The wizard patriarch who was regarded as a deity by him was dead without a full body. And he would be imprisoned shortly.How could he be reconciled?Qiu Li walked silently with his head lowered. More and more people came and went. He ambled through them quietly toward the imperial palace along the long street washed by the blood.
Ning Changjiu didn’t understand why the thing would become like this.Neither did Zhao Xiang’er... Because according to her plan, she just needed to show the marriage letter, point out his master and force him to admit it. All she wanted to do was taking a look at her fiance and then returning the marriage letter. However... Ning Changjiu had no sense of propriety at all. How could he play dumbness in front of so many people?Hence, she claimed to break off the engagement out of anger so as to irritate him.Unexpectedly, the young man still remained calm as if it had nothing to do with him...His calmness made her even angrier but she could lose her temper in public so she could only pretend to be calm.Of course, what she said was also beyond the expectation of Ning Changjiu. In his eyes, this was simply a misunderstanding. What did the engagement breakoff have to do with Ning Changjiu?If the worst came
Now, in the imperial palace, most of the guests had left continuously. The palace maids went around, cleaning the messy tables.The sun rising high shone in the palace as if paving a snow-white carpet ahead. At the end of the bright carpet, Zhao Xiang’er stood before the broken throne with a cold shadow. What she would do next was to pronounce the sentence on the true sinners of the state of Zhao.Ning Changjiu was sitting before the table with his eyes closed, his sleeves drooping on both sides. He received the marriage letter but he didn’t read it.Ning Xiaoling only felt a bit embarrassed sitting by his side... Her fellow disciple became the fiancé of Zhao Xiang’er now?Before stepping into the hall, she could never think of the current situation and the three-year agreement... She knew that her fellow disciple was really awesome but if he was to fight with Her Highness, she was still worried about him.After all, H
The blood arrow that went through the air got cut off by the sword and then dispersed by the sleeves. Everything just happened too suddenly. Its rushing momentum was hardly stoppable. The blood arrow was cut off, broken, sprinkled and finally, it landed.Ning Changjiu turned around right away and stared at the “red mole” on the white neck in astonishment.Ning Xiaoling couldn’t even have time to react at all.“Chang...”The moment the unfatal blood landed on her, her Qi was suddenly changed. All the words were stuck in her throat. She couldn’t continue talking.Zhao Xiang’er pupils also shrank instantly because she could clearly see three snow-white and illusory tails vaguely appeared behind the young girl!The demonic nature readily suppressed in her body by Ning Changjiu was activated by these several drops of blood now!Ning Xiaoling was at a loss. Her lips, cheeks and skin were getting pal
Ning Xiaoling acted extremely swiftly. Now that the city walls collapsed, she met no obstacles on the way.Only within the blink of an eye, her figure couldn’t be seen at all. The imperial city was just like a lake. Her figure just dived into it and disappeared.The noises gradually subdued. Ning Changjiu slowly walked out of the hall. He looked exhausted, his arms hanging feebly and sleeves billowing in the wind.This was the first time that he had such a clear sense of incapability.Even if there were serious problems with his body which he didn’t know how to solve at all, he was somehow confident about the future cultivation because he had trodden on the road of cultivation smoothly in his prelife. However, today, he truly understood what Lu Jiajia said that day--lack of time.He watched helplessly the blood sprinkled on his fellow disciple, that she became a demon and that she forced herself to run away from him wi
“Let it go...”Lu Jiajia raised her sword to target the dying Blood Feather. Behind her, there came a voice. She turned around only to see a young man in white standing there with a weary face and pressing his palm to her.Lu Jiajia turned aside and looked at Ning Changjiu, saying with a frown, “What did you say?”Rather than answer her question, Ning Changjiu asked, “What is the strongest spell in your sect? Cast the spell on it and then let it go.”Lu Jiajia said, “Casting the spell on the soul is a magic of the evils and demons. I haven’t learned about it before.”Ning Changjiu said, “Then let me teach you Blood and Bones Burning Body Seal.”His words gave Blood Feather a shock. It wailed, “Your fellow disciple is in deadly danger. How can you still be in the vein for torturing me? How can you disregard her life and safety?”Ning Changjiu didn’t respond to it but looked at Lu Jiajia and sai
When the wizard patriarch fought with the old fox on Lake Qifeng back then, the buildings, which were part real and part illusory, were ranked with the ancient book according to the rankings of the book.The first one was Qianyu Palace and the third one was the imperial palace. The second one was Jiuling Tower.Jiuling Tower was the place where the imperial family offered sacrifices to Heaven. In the middle of it, there was a huge statue of Rosefinch, around which nine bronze statues of the spirit beasts were situated. The spirit beasts took various shapes. None of them was recorded in the “Classic of Mountains and Seas.”Zhao Xiang’er used to read some legends about the Jiuling Tower in the Qianyu Palace.It was said that the nine spirit beasts were the descendants of Rosefinch God, each of which was endowed with a certain power by Rosefinch God. Moreover, the bronze statues were elaborately located. Legend had it that they were t
Bu Ke Temple was the Taoist temple where he cultivated himself in his last life.The temple was situated at the end of Dahe Town, hidden in the mountains. The peak was at an extremely high altitude. In the daytime, it was clouds that were in sight. At night, the stars and the moon seemed to be reachable. This was Bu Ke Temple.Previously, Zhao Xiang’er asked him about the temple’s name but he could only vaguely think of one word, Bu.Now that he unfolded the marriage letter and saw the three scribbled words, the full name of the Taoist temple just came to his mind.Of course, he wouldn’t forget such a thing easily. The only one explanation was that even the three words--Bu Ke Temple carried the inherent mystery, which couldn’t be mentioned in the secular world, making it difficult for him to recall.The snow fox also could hardly see the three words anymore.She saw a Taoist temple vaguely. The bright moon
In the imaginary realm, white snow drifted.The water mirror was like thunder and lightning cracking clouds, abruptly shattering.Almost out of instinct, Bai Zang fell back a hundred feet in a flash.At the same time, on the side of the water mirror, the mass of shredded paper Immortals seemed to have received an order and began to rotate, and soon, the edges of each piece of paper ignited with flames, and the entire fragment of Immortals burned up in almost an instant.But it's not a rabbit's death, it's a ney fire.The shredded paper blasted and burned out, a grayish-white translucent spirit state floated out from it, and the spirit life hovered in the air for a moment, abruptly disappearing.Shiruzo made sure there was no danger around him before he released his offensive form, his flying hair and skirt quickly coming to a standstill.What the hell happened?Bai Zang looked at the location where the water mirror had shattered, his m
The world is pale.The saint's cracked stone Buddha stretched across the sky, ancient and solemn, the black python climbed up the stone Buddha at high speed. Its body is already as long as a big river, but still can not be compared with the saint's stone Buddha, the scene at the moment, it is more like a slender wisteria climbing to the mountain sculpture into the body of the stone Buddha.The black python was none other than Divine Lord Quan Scale.Izumi scales glowing with steel ebony opened and closed as she rubbed over the cracked stone Buddha and swam close to the top of it.The top of the saint's stone Buddha still emanated a golden light, a manifestation of long-lived authority, and he was like a man holding up a bright light, stopping the darkness above him.The stone Buddha held up a bright barrier on the outside, but his body had lost a bit of light and glowed a lifeless stone gray.Izumi Scale's form was perched on the dark side, straig
In a voice that sounded like a clear spring shattering jade, Ye Cangong handed over the marriage certificate, and Ning took it for a long time.He unfolded the marriage certificate, the soft paper was like a freshly picked flower petal, and the fragrance of a young girl was still spread on it. Ning long unfolded the marriage certificate, like a flower petal blooming, the familiar handwriting on it came into view.'Ye Chan Palace'.Ning looked at these words for a long time, her fingers trembling lightly, and after a moment she refolded the marriage certificate.He looked at his master and smiled, "Master's orders are hard to disobey, this marriage certificate, disciple will have the audacity to accept it."Ye Chan Gong hmmm'd.The corners of her slightly curled lips slowly smoothed out, and the momentary smile was short, but it was enough to move the heart.The two men sat silently against each other.Ye Chan Gong's beautifully straigh
The wind of autumn swept through the world of eternal life, the ancient mirror such as the moon hanging high, sprinkled with a silver great piece, such as a dreamy scene, Ning long and Ye Chan Palace stood side by side, together with the appreciation of this round of autumn moon.It is also mid-autumn on earth.Ning could imagine that Xiang'er and the others must also be looking up at the moon. What they were looking at was not the same moon, but the same heart. Sooner or later, one day, these hearts would cross the divide between the eternal realms and be linked together.Ye Chan Gong looked at the mirror.The mirror hung high, and the silhouette was somewhat blurred."So it's been so many years."Ye Chan Gong looked at the moon, whispering to himself, swallowing the fire to ascend when it was yesterday, but suddenly look back, but it is already a thousand years of time.Just the moonlight from a million feet high in the sky, across the lay
In the ethereal and clear dao hall, Ning Nagisa and Ye Chan Gong looked at each other across the veil.Ye Chan Gong looked at the paper marriage certificate, her eyebrows moved slightly, like the fine breeze fanned by a butterfly's wings."Shall I write it?"Ye Chan Palace returned to tranquility.She is still a fairy as cold as the ice mountain, the fireworks of the world will float over her brow, but can not stick moisten.Ning waited for a long time, and earlier, his thoughts were confirmed, and he couldn't help but touch the top of his head for nothing.In the realm of eternal life, he had no dao and was just an ordinary person, so there was no way to see his lifeline, just like a person has no way to raise his eyes to see the heart of his head.The white veil grew still.Ye Cangong put pen to paper and wrote down a name without haste, and when she was done, she folded the marriage certificate.Ning held out her hand for a lo
Ning sat on the stone table for a long time, looking at the marriage certificate and falling into deep thought.The wedding book is standing still, like a delicate blooming petal, which is not stained with autumn dew, but has the unique poignancy of autumn.Ning looked around for a long time.He couldn't tell whether he was in a dream or in the realm of eternity at the moment, but no matter what, this marriage letter should be the key to breaking the game.Ning Nagisa intends to give it another try.He picked up his pen and wrote the words 'Ye Chan Palace' on the marriage certificate and knocked on the door of the Dao Palace once again.The white veil blew in the Taoist temple, and the silhouette swayed."The marriage contract has been written."This time, Ning Nagisa didn't wait for Ye Canyangong to speak, nor did he sit on his knees respectfully; he stood upright, holding the marriage certificate, and snatched it up, "I wrote 'Ye Can
In the crystal-carved palace, the marriage certificate between Ye Chan Gong's fingers looked like a maple leaf.Ning looked at the marriage letter for a long time, the fingers between his sleeves suddenly trembled, and at this moment, he felt that the world was clear.The wind of butterflies blew through the window, showering the courtyard with golden broken awnings, light falling through the window onto Ning's cheeks for a long time, light and shadows flowing past like water, and silent time flowed in such equally silent imagery.Ye Chan Gong watched him, not knowing if she was looking at him or at the beautiful golden shadow floating across his cheek.A moment later, Ye Cangong's fingers shrunk slightly, seemingly about to take back the marriage certificate, and Ning Changcheng's hand blocked this, his hand falling to the marriage certificate at some point as well, pinching a corner of it.Ye Chan Gong looked at him again, but did not immediately let
The town floated above the Eternal Realm, a rootless, suspended island.Golden butterflies flew all around the town, the world had no sun, so they became countless luminaries, glow worms gathered in lanterns that lit up the world.Ye Chan Gong took his hand and leapt into the world.The world opened up for them.Ning long leapt down from the island-like town, and he spread his arms out like a bird of prey as the wind murmured in his ears.They dropped from the high school all the way down to the earth.The eternal realm is crystal clear and glows with the beauty of the spirit state.The earth here is made up of silvery fine soft particles, incomparably soft, the trees are also like crystal sculptures, towering, like a majestic palace, running between the forest deer, deer like butterflies, also golden, they shuttle between the forest, retaining only the instincts of the pre-life, do not drink, do not eat, forget about life and forget about d
The sea of dust from the star explosion was like a layer of barrier between heaven and earth, as if the myth and legend had been verified, and the heaven and earth were divided into nine, and the sunlight was reflected by the ashes floating in the sky, unable to shine onto the ground. The ground was dim, and the temperature dropped dramatically.The aftermath of the meteorite's explosion was still leveling off at unimaginably high speeds, the tumbling embers were filled with high temperatures, there were no more birds of prey in a thousand-mile radius, and the boisterous dust constructed a purgatory in which living beings could not survive.Not to mention the high altitude, the earth was swept away by the heat wave of the explosion, but fortunately the center point of the explosion was the boundless Mirror LakeThe water in Mirror Lake has been boiled and large numbers of fish carcasses have surfaced from underwater.Bai Zang's body stained with a silver skir
