After Cultivating With the Enemy

Immortal Domain, Hongmeng Mountain.

The mountains are full of wind and snow, and the vastness is thousands of miles.

A suspended stone bridge spans between the two peaks, and the soft snow covers the bridge deck. Below the stone bridge is an abyss.

Under the light gray sky, a dozen figures walked quickly in the center of the stone bridge.

"Hurry up, we won't be able to catch up with Hongmeng Academy's registration!"

"There's too much snow, be careful!"

The wind and snow were getting stronger, and frost formed on the stone bridge at a speed visible to the naked eye. The sharp cold air seemed to be real, and it was approaching the boy who was walking in the front!

"what--!"

The boy took two quick steps back, his feet slipped, and his body was thrown straight out of the bridge by the cold air, and he was about to fall to the bottom of the cliff.

Before everyone could utter an exclamation, at this moment, there was a sound like a sharp knife piercing the void from the sky.A streak of silver light descended from the sky like a swimming dragon, leaning over and jumping down towards the place where the boy fell.

After a while, that silver light floated up and landed steadily on the stone bridge.

The silver glow dissipated, revealing a face as cold as frost.

The man was a few years older than the boy, and was wrapped in a rough silver-white robe. The lines from the side face to the neck were delicate and thin, and all of them were tucked into the fluffy collar.His skin is as white as snow, but without a trace of blood, he almost blends in with the surroundings.

"The suspension bridge is extremely dangerous, be careful." He lowered his head and said softly to the young man beside him.

From a close distance, one can see that the color of his pupils is extremely dark, but there is an unstoppable faint light flashing in his thick black pupils, like broken light reflected by frost and snow.

The young man was still in shock, staring at his savior in a daze, and after a while he found his voice: "Thank you, Xianchang!"

"I'm not..." He shook his head, just about to say something, but stopped.

"Today is the last day for enrollment in Hongmeng Academy, everyone, please hurry up."

After saying this, the figure of the man in white turned into a silver glow again, soaring into the sky.

A moment later, that plain white figure appeared in front of the mountain gate of Hongmeng Academy.

There is no wind and snow here, and the dense fog is blown away by the wind among the green forests, exposing the corner of the roof ridge with glazed blue tiles in the distance.The ridge of the roof is golden in the warm sunshine, and it looks like it is surrounded by fairy clouds.

Ji Zhaoyun gathered his clothes as if fearing the cold, raised his eyes over the long stone steps of the cloud ladder, and looked at the glazed golden roof in the distance.

Beside the long steps, a stone tablet with the four characters "Hongmeng Academy" stands quietly.

"Ji Chaoyun, are you running to save those newbies again?" Suddenly, a voice came from behind.A tall man in blue jumped down from the bluestone with a smile, and put his arms around the other's shoulders affectionately, "Bring me a drink, and I won't sue you in front of the elders in the inspection hall."

Ji Zhaoyun patted his hand away, his eyes were light: "Didn't you be rescued by me back then? Besides, we are also newcomers."

Once in a hundred years, Hongmeng Academy opened its doors to enroll students, and scattered immortals flocked from all over the fairyland.

Ji Chaoyun is also one of them.

Hongmeng Academy is a place exclusively for disciples of the Immortal Realm to study hard. If Sanxians like them who have ascended from the mortal world want to enroll, they must pass the examinations on Hongmeng Mountain.

"Why bother? Seeing that tomorrow is the final assessment, if you run out at this juncture, in case someone catches you—" the man in blue said this, Ji Zhaoyun suddenly turned his eyes and glanced at him.The latter gave a dry laugh, and weakly finished the rest of the sentence, "I know you have good intentions, but it's not easy to come here. One more thing is worse than one less thing, isn't it?"

"I didn't break the rules." A cold wind blew in front of the mountain, Ji Chaoyun gathered his clothes tightly, half of his face was hidden in the snow-white fur collar, "It's not easy for anyone to get to this point, I just try my best."

"Forget it, it's up to you. I'm looking for you for another matter." The man in blue restrained his smile, and said in a low voice, "Tomorrow's final assessment has been decided, and the person in charge of the assessment is..."

"it's me."

Hearing this voice, the two raised their heads together, and saw a tall figure standing in front of the mountain gate at some time.

The visitor looked at Ji Chaoyun arrogantly with a half-smile, "Ji Chaoyun, my young master said that I won't make it easy for you."

Jiang Cheng, the top ten masters of Hongmeng Academy, is also the final person in charge of the entrance examination of Hongmeng Academy.

Ji Zhaoyun moved his lips almost inaudibly, as if he was cursing something secretly.

Jiang Cheng's parents are both in the immortal class, and they have been immortals since birth. Relying on their talents and high cultivation levels, they are born with fewer detours than others.When Sanxian enters Hongmeng Academy, he has to go through all kinds of difficult assessments, which can be said to be one in a million.And these second generations of immortals have unlimited access and do not have to go through any assessments.

The place of pure cultivation that the loose immortals want to enter, in their view, is just another place to pass the time.

Immortal Territory has always been respected by status, there is no fairness at all.

The people around him were about to say something, Ji Zhaoyun calmly took half a step forward, and asked softly, "Is there something the Immortal Chief wants us to do?"

Jiang Cheng snorted coldly: "Ji Chaoyun, I can give you another chance, obediently accept me softly and apologize, and then be my follower for a school year. Maybe this young master is in a good mood, so I will show mercy and let you You have successfully enrolled."

Ji Zhaoyun and Jiang Cheng looked at each other, and his voice was calm: "The Immortal Chief is the chief examiner. I'm afraid it's inappropriate to promise a new student like this. If the supervisor finds out..."

"You—" Jiang Cheng's complexion changed drastically, and he shouted angrily, "Little demon dragon dares to be rampant, don't be shameless!"

Ji Zhaoyun's eyes sank, and a dangerous light flashed in his eyes.Before anyone could see clearly, he lowered his head docilely and said no more.

"Okay, very good..." Jiang Cheng gritted his teeth angrily, "Just wait, if you can pass the test, I will kowtow on the ground and apologize to you!"

After saying this, he turned angrily and went up the stone steps.

No one is allowed to fly in the sky in front of the mountain gate of Hongmeng Academy. Even if the gods are here, the ten thousand steps have to be climbed slowly one step at a time.

The two stared at the back of Jiang Cheng who was walking up the mountain quickly, and the man in blue looked stiff: "He walked down the ten thousand steps, and now he is struggling to climb back, just to say these few words to you?"

The man in blue shook his head and sighed: "...he really hates you."

"..." Ji Zhaoyun was silent for a moment, then said lightly, "Let's go."

The two turned a corner at the entrance of the mountain and walked to the side mountain path.

Sanxian who have not passed the final assessment are not allowed to step into Hongmeng Academy, and can only temporarily live in Evergreen Garden outside the mountain gate of Hongmeng Academy.

Hongmeng Academy opened for enrollment ten days ago, and Ji Chaoyun was the first batch of Sanxians who came to Evergreen Garden.

And on that day, the news that a little beauty Bingshan came to Evergreen Garden spread in Hongmeng Academy.These second-generation immortals are ignorant all day long, but they are very interested in talking about treasures and beauties. For a few days, some people secretly came to Changqing Garden, wanting to see Ji Chaoyun's demeanor.

Jiang Cheng was born in a superior family and grew up surrounded by stars, which he originally disdained.However, there are always people whispering in their ears, describing Ji Chaoyun as if there is nothing in the sky and nothing on earth.Jiang Cheng couldn't hold it back, and couldn't hold back his face, so he dared to spend most of the night and sneaked into Changqing Garden from the backyard over the wall.

——Then he was beaten out as a thief by Ji Chaoyun who was practicing sword in the backyard.

The beam between the two of them ended like this.

"If you want me to say, you'd better apologize to him. From now on, we'll all be classmates, wouldn't it be good to hold back for a while?" The man in blue leaned against the table, and the jug in his hand jingled.

Under the lamp, Ji Chaoyun was holding a book and reading it carefully.

The candlelight on the table was slowly flicked by the man's clothes in the drinking room, Ji Chaoyun couldn't bear it anymore and raised his head: "Ye Chenxing."

"exist."

Ji Zhaoyun turned a page and said, "Go out after drinking, I haven't finished my homework today."

"You're working so hard before entering school, you don't plan to leave a way for me to wait for the end of the crane?" Ye Chenxing turned his head and teased.

It is said that looking at people under the light adds a bit of color, especially when placed on this person.The light and shadow of the lights made his outline more and more clear, and the black and fine eyelashes drooped down, leaving a light shadow on his porcelain-like face.

No wonder the group of second generations of immortals went to great lengths to see him. Looking at Hongmeng Academy, and even the immortal and mortal realms, it might be difficult to find anyone who can compare with him.

Ye Chenxing swallowed subconsciously, turned his gaze, and landed on the book in Ji Chaoyun's hand: "Hey, where did you get this book? The fourth volume of the Sutra of the Supreme Supreme, I thought this book could no longer be found in the Immortal Domain."

Ji Zhaoyun paused, then turned another page: "Given it by a friend."

He obviously didn't want to say more, Ye Chenxing didn't care, he touched his nose, took out a crystal clear spirit stone from his pocket and threw it on the table.

"Here, I only have this one left." Ye Chenxing said, "Before the assessment starts tomorrow, send this thing to Jiangcheng, and then say something nice. He has no reason to make life difficult for a freshman."

"No, take it back."

"You—" Ye Chenxing jumped off the table and scolded anxiously, "I have inquired about it. Tomorrow's final assessment is a competition in the ring. You must win three people to be admitted, and you can't lose even one! Have you ever thought about it? , if Jiangcheng really arranges some masters for you, how will you fight tomorrow?"

Ji Zhaoyun's voice was steady: "But I also remember that freshmen can choose the content of the competition by themselves."

"So what—"

"That's enough." Ji Chaoyun raised his head, his eyes reflected the dancing lights, as if a star fell into the night sky and streaked through a shattered light, "I can win."

Ji Zhaoyun doesn't look very old, and there is still some youthful innocence between his brows, but he always looks calm, as if he never pays attention to anything, beauty is beautiful, but there are a few things missing. Very angry.

But at this moment when he looked from under the lamp, his beautifully shaped lips curved slightly, and his eyes shone with a look of confidence that was rarely seen in the past.

——This look almost brightened his facial features.

Ji Zhaoyun repeated softly in this smile: "Don't worry, I can win."

As the night was dark, Ji Chaoyun closed the book and put it back into the Qiankun bag.He sat quietly at the table for a while, and took out a delicate purse from his arms.In the purse is a feather.

Under the lamp, the feathers glowed with a red-golden luster, and the roots were distinct, and the thick spiritual power flowing on them could be faintly seen.

Ji Zhaoyun gently stroked the surface of the feather with his fingertips, closed his eyes, and the tiny memories flooded in like a tide.

"I heard that mortals give gifts to each other when they are in love. I have received your gift, but unfortunately I have nothing to give you right now... You have to keep this golden phoenix plume. I don't care if it is lost."

"...Cut, what's precious, if you like it, I'll pluck a few more pieces for you, just don't pluck my baldness."

Against the starlight in the sky, the man could hardly see the soft and nostalgic light in his eyes: "When I come back, Xiaolong, after I come back, I will never leave again."

"This thing is worth your life to protect. Do you think he will come back?"

The sound of pattering rain, footsteps and swearing continued one after another, and the blurred figure shrouded his body in the shadow. Ji Zhaoyun's whole body hurt so badly that even his breathing was tinged with blood.

"Hand it over, or don't blame us for being rude!"

"What are you still stubborn about? Even if we kill you now, no one will know. Bring it!"

Lingyu was completely soaked in his blood, just like what he had experienced countless times in the past, Ji Zhaoyun tried his best to raise his head, and he could only see blood everywhere he looked, and he couldn't even see the face of the person in front of him clearly.

Then, a sharp blade with a cold light came with the wind, and a sword pierced his heart.

Suffocation-like pain swept through his body, Ji Zhaoyun opened his eyes, and it took him a while to hear his rapid panting.

His hand holding Phoenix Jinling trembled violently. At this moment, the night wind blew open the window, the lights went out, and the house was plunged into darkness.

The bright moonlight spilled into the window through the shadow of the tree, Ji Zhaoyun turned his head, and the bronze mirror beside the table reflected his current appearance.

Moisture appeared in those beautifully shaped peach eyes, turning red in embarrassment.The ink-like color in the eyes faded, and a pair of vertical pupils gradually appeared in the depths of the pupils, which were as clear as glass.

In front of the forehead, a pair of silver dragon horns slowly emerged, covered with a light halo under the moonlight.

Ji Zhaoyun stared at his appearance, and finally calmed down slowly.He got up and closed the window, returned to the bed, curled up, and carefully put the Phoenix Golden Feather back into his purse.

In the dark, he put his purse close to his lips and said softly, "Good night."
