After being divorced by the Chosen One

Jiang Zhuyue searched in the canyon for a whole day. He found Sunset from the early morning, and even after sunset, he did not find Lin Jin.

Even the breath left on the cloak gradually became thinner.

In the end, the voice in Jiang Zhuyue's heart quietly told him that Lin Jin had really left.

He silently closed his eyes, pursed his lips, walked out of the gradually deserted valley as he stepped into the twilight.

Qi Ji woke up by himself in a dream.

As if telepathic, he opened his eyes, looked not far away in the night wind, and saw Jiang Zhuyue, dressed in white, walking out of the canyon.

Qi Ji just glanced at it, and couldn't help standing up from under the tree.

At this time, the bright moon hangs high, the clear light is boundless, Jiang Zhuyue's long hair is scattered on his shoulders, and he is dressed in white clothes, cold and dust-free. His beautiful face is like a transparent jade, flawless, and the whole person exudes a A clear brilliance.

It's just that Jiang Zhuyue's eyelashes drooped slightly at this time, and the slightly raised eye ends were slightly red, and her whole person's aura was a little gloomy.

Qi Ji stared intently for a moment, and felt a little parched.

He never thought that Jiang Zhuyue's original appearance was like this...

But soon, Qi Ji realized one thing—why did Jiang Zhuyue come out without a mask? Did something happen to him?

Then, Qi Ji noticed that Jiang Zhuyue was actually stepping on the ground with a pair of white bare feet, some places on the insteps were slightly red, as if they had been scratched.

Qi Ji's heart trembled, he couldn't help but walked forward, and said in a low voice: "Senior...are you injured? Why don't you wear shoes?"

Jiang Zhuyue raised his eyes, glanced at Qi Ji indifferently, and noticed Qi Ji's slightly emotional eyes, he frowned, and subconsciously reached out to touch his face.

The mask is gone...

But at this moment, Lin Jin's disappearance had already caused Jiang Zhuyu's whole heart to sink. He thought about it, and simply lowered his hand, without covering it up again.

And Qi Ji looked at Jiang Zhuyue's action, and he guessed something in his heart, but he was a little lucky.

If it wasn't for Jiang Zhuyue's momentary mistake, he probably would never have seen the true face of this "senior".

After Jiang Zhuyue exposed her face, she became more and more lazy to hide her emotions. At this time, she walked to the side of the tree without saying a word, and took out the new shoes in the storage ring to wear.

Qi Ji walked over silently.

When Jiang Zhuyue was putting on his shoes, Qi Ji stood not far away and watched quietly, and he didn't dare to get too close.

Jiang Zhuyue was halfway through her shoes, and suddenly said coldly: "Don't you know that no evil is seen?"

As soon as Jiang Zhuyue spoke like this, Qi Ji found that his usually clear and gentle voice was slightly hoarse.

Qi Ji felt more and more that something happened to Jiang Zhuyue.

But Jiang Zhuyue said so now, and Qi Ji could only say "I'm sorry, senior" in a low voice, and then quietly turned his head away.

Jiang Zhuyue put on her shoes, stood up, turned around and left.

Qi Ji at the side hesitated for a moment, then hurriedly followed.

Hearing Qi Ji's footsteps behind him, Jiang Zhuyue felt irritated for no reason. Suddenly he turned his head blankly, looked at Qi Ji coldly and said, "I don't know why you followed me? I took the Tongtian Monument I won't give you half, don't think you can get some benefits by following me."

Qi Ji was slightly silent when he heard Jiang Zhuyue's words.

After a while, he looked at Jiang Zhuyue's cold and beautiful face, pondered for a moment, and said in a low voice: "I just feel that senior's mood is a bit wrong at this time, and I'm afraid that senior can't think about it for a while, so I followed."

As soon as Qi Ji said these words, Jiang Zhuyue was stunned.

After a while, Jiang Zhuyue lowered his eyes and let out a low laugh.

That's right, even an outsider like Qi Ji could tell that he was in a bad mood, so how could Lin Jin not know what would happen to him after he left without saying goodbye?

Or maybe... Lin Jin was watching him secretly from somewhere nearby.

Seeing him anxious, seeing his distraught appearance...

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhuyue bit her lip violently, then suddenly turned her head and met Qi Ji's eyes.

Qi Ji suddenly looked at Shang Jiang Zhuyue's beautiful and clear eyes, his heart trembled slightly, and then he whispered: "Senior...are you leaving?"

Jiang Zhuyue said: "Is what you said just now the truth?"

Qi Ji said calmly: "Every word is true, there is absolutely no falsehood."

Jiang Zhuyue pondered for a moment, then stared straight into Qi Ji's eyes and said, "Since that's the case, let me tell you, I already have a Taoist companion, and we met last night. So, you still want to follow me?"

Hearing Jiang Zhuyue's words, Qi Ji stared into Jiang Zhuyue's eyes for a moment, and suddenly said in a low voice, "But he broke your heart, didn't he?"

Jiang Zhuyue suddenly froze.

He originally thought that his words could make Qi Ji give up, but he never expected that Qi Ji could see through his thoughts all at once.

Jiang Zhuyue: ...

Could it be that his love for Lin Jin is really that deep?

An outsider can see it.

So Lin Jin, Lin Jin, why did you leave without saying goodbye again and again?

Looking at the surging emotions in Jiang Zhuyue's eyes, Qi Ji couldn't help but think of the man in black he saw last night. He was as smart as him. In fact, he had already guessed that that man was Jiang Zhuyue's Taoist companion.

But at this time, Qi Ji kept silent, and only said softly: "Senior, don't misunderstand, it's just that you saved my life before, so I just want to do something for you, and there is nothing wrong with it."

Jiang Zhuyue was silent.

At this time, Qi Ji whispered again: "Although Qi Ji is not a Mahayana monk, his family background is quite strong, and he has brought a lot of strong followers by his side. How about letting them spread information and help seniors find seniors' Taoist companions?"

After hearing Qi Ji's words, Jiang Zhuyue was silent for a long time, and said lightly: "No need, if he doesn't want to come out, no one will find him."

Although Jiang Zhuyue's words sounded cold, Qi Ji could already hear that his tone was a little softer than before.

His eyes moved, but Qi Ji didn't force it, he just said: "Then I will go out with senior first."

This time, Jiang Zhuyue could no longer refuse as coldly as before.

Of course he knew that Qi Ji might have taken a fancy to his cultivation and ability, and wanted to cling to him and make friends.

But what Qi Ji said just now, to help him find Lin Jin, really hit his weakness.

The current him has a strong inner strength, but he can't even keep the person he likes.

Even if Qi Ji intends to cling to him, but at this moment, it is better to have such a person by his side than to go on the road alone.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhuyue closed his eyes and said lightly, "As you wish."

Qi Ji finally smiled slightly, and said in a low voice, "Senior, please follow me."

Jiang Zhuyue was silent for a moment, and said: "Don't call me senior, I may not be older than you."

Qi Ji's heart trembled, and he said as calmly as possible: "Then dare to ask..."

"Just call me Shen Yu."

Qi Ji's eyes moved slightly, and he repeated the word Shen Yu several times in his heart, then smiled silently: "Brother Shen."

Jiang Zhuyue's eyes moved, a little surprised—he thought Qi Ji would take the opportunity to call her more affectionately, but he didn't expect Qi Ji to choose the most polite address.

In this way, Jiang Zhuyue lowered Qi Ji's vigilance even more.

"If you want to call it that, then call it that."

Qi Ji smiled faintly: "Okay, Brother Shen, go this way."

Just as Jiang Zhuyue stepped forward, suddenly, a black figure jumped out of the night and flew onto his shoulder.

Jiang Zhuyue was startled at first, then realized that it was a little monster.

Immediately, Jiang Zhuyue gave a wry smile, touched the little monster's head, and said in a low voice, "It's all my fault, I forgot about you."

The little monster smacked its lips and gnawed at Jiang Zhuyue's finger, expressing that he forgave him.

Seeing this, Jiang Zhuyue smiled silently.

Qi Ji on the side looked at Jiang Zhuyue's smile as bright as a bright moon under the moonlight, and was a little dazed for a moment, and then watched Jiang Zhuyue's interaction with the little monster, and he felt more and more that Jiang Zhuyue Yue is not the kind of person who is really hard-hearted.

Thinking of this, Qi Ji had an idea in his mind.

·

After the Tongtian Monument is taken away, the secret realm will be completely closed within three days. The monks on the periphery have already sensed this change and left early.

Jiang Zhuyue and Qi Ji were the last two to leave.

And before Jiang Zhuyue left, he had already used his spiritual energy to quietly change his appearance by five or six points, but the appearance after the change was still clean and refined, which was amazing to see—after all, there are many people who know him in Yunzhou Continent, so it is still necessary to reduce A little trouble is better.

Seeing this, Qi Ji's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't say anything.

A team of guards and followers led by Qi Ji had been waiting outside the endless forest for a long time, fearing that Qi Ji might make a mistake.

But they couldn't get in at this time.

Fortunately, Qi Ji's natal jade tablet has been kept by one of the masters of the Void Refining Stage, and it has not been broken, so everyone can feel at ease.

Finally, they waited until Qi Ji.

Not only Qi Ji, but also a young man in white.

The young man in white walked lightly, his eyes were clean, he was born too beautiful, and the refined aura emanating from his body made all the attendants waiting for Qi Ji slightly shocked.

Not only that, but there was also a strange-looking little black monster lying on the shoulder of the young man in white.

But this is the second thing. All Qi Ji's followers, including the master of the Void Refining Stage, couldn't see through the realm of this peerless young man in white clothes.

In the end, it was Nie Xiaoqing, a master of the Void Refining Stage, who took the initiative to greet him, first saluted Qi Ji, then looked at Jiang Zhuyue with a slight frown and said, "This is——"

"Shen Yu." Jiang Zhuyue spoke lightly, her voice was clear and warm, like beating pearls and jade.

Nie Xiaoqing nodded: "Friend Daoist Shen."

At this time, Qi Ji walked forward with a smile, never mentioning that Jiang Zhuyue had obtained the Tongtian Monument, and said: "Brother Shen saved my life in the inner circle earlier, he is my savior, everyone treats Brother Shen Just as you would treat me."

As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately understood, knowing that this white-clothed monk was not only peerless in appearance, but his cultivation was also peerless, so they immediately became respectful.

Unexpectedly, when Jiang Zhuyue heard Qi Ji's words, his eyes moved, but he said: "I only promised to be with you in the endless forest. Now that I'm out, I should go."

Qi Ji was stunned suddenly.

The entourage at the side: ...

But after all, they are all well-trained, so at most their expressions are difficult to understand, but they don't have too many mouths to intervene.

Nie Xiaoqing, on the other hand, saw Qi Ji's slightly lost and anxious eyes, and his eyes moved slightly, so he took the initiative to step forward and said to Jiang Zhuyue: "This fellow Daoist Shen, you were in the endless forest with the young master before, and you don't know the outside situation. Now Many monsters suddenly appeared at the junction of the Western Wilderness Continent and our Yunzhou Continent, and many of them fled to the road to the Endless Forest. They did not appear during the day, but specially ambushed monks at night. We are seriously injured, if Fellow Daoist Shen is with us, we can still take care of each other, and it is definitely not wise to act alone."

When Nie Xiaoqing said this, Jiang Zhuyue couldn't help but frowned slightly.

Monster...

He suddenly thought of the weird red pattern he saw on Lin Jin's wrist that day.

There is also Tongtianbei's extreme rejection of Lin Jin.

That's right... For ordinary monks, even if greed, hatred and ignorance are too heavy, how can the Tongtian Tablet be used as a divine weapon to hurt people at will, unless...

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhuyue's eyes changed color, and her heart became slightly excited.

Afterwards, he immediately changed his mind and said, "Since this fellow Taoist reminded me kindly, then I'd rather be obedient than respectful."

As soon as Jiang Zhuyue said this, Qi Ji beside him couldn't help showing a happy face, and Nie Xiaoqing was silently relieved when he saw this.

But then Nie Xiaoqing looked at the situation of the two of them, and couldn't help but worry about Qi Ji.

Although Jiang Zhuyue did look first-class in appearance and cultivation, why had he never heard of this person?

No matter how you say it, the Qi family is also a wealthy family. Now that Qi Ji likes such a monk with unknown background, he doesn't know whether it is a blessing or a curse.

But Qi Ji himself is like this, so Nie Xiaoqing can't say much.

Although Jiang Zhuyue agreed to go with Qi Ji and others, he was not willing to share a carriage with Qi Ji.

Qi Ji was quite disappointed by this, but thinking about the steady flow of water, he was not in a hurry, so he didn't force it.

Jiang Zhuyue will be sitting alone in the carriage Qi Ji prepared for him, leaning against the wall of the carriage, lowering her eyes slightly, while stroking the little monster's belly, while thinking about what Nie Xiaoqing just said and Lin Jin's previous performance exception.

Jiang Zhuyue still remembered that night in the cave, that Lin Jin whose eyes were blood red and whose expression was very different from Lin Jin's usual.

At that time, he only thought that it was Lin Jin who was stimulated by the incense of expanding consciousness, which made him lose his mind. Now that he thinks about it, maybe that Lin Jin is the devil...

Afterwards, Lin Jin left suddenly several times without warning, and now Jiang Zhuyue felt more and more terrified.

Could it be that Lin Jin was possessed by a monster early in the morning, just because he was afraid of being worried, so he kept silent?

Jiang Zhuyue's heart sank slowly without knowing it.

If that's the case... Lin Jin, Lin Jin, do you really distrust me that much?

Jiang Zhuyue silently clenched the armrest beside the soft couch, and veins appeared faintly on the back of her white hands.

But the matter has come to this point, Jiang Zhuyue can't think of any good solution, so he can only follow Qi Ji's convoy and check the situation of those monsters by the way.

The Qi family's carriage was very stable. Jiang Zhuyue thought for a while, and after he couldn't find any other clues, he leaned on the soft couch with one hand and prepared to rest for a while.

As a result, as soon as he closed his eyes, several people whispered in his ears.

It seemed to come from another carriage.

Jiang Zhuyue silently opened her eyes again.

In fact, it's not that those people were careless, it's just that Jiang Zhuyue's spiritual consciousness has skyrocketed now, and he can clearly see everything around him.

But what caught Jiang Zhuyue's attention this time was nothing but the mention of him by those people.

"I see that the young master seems to be very concerned about that Mr. Shen, and I don't know if it's a novelty or something else."

"Young master has always respected capable people with high cultivation. This Mr. Shen is not only high in cultivation and young in age, but also good-looking. It is common for young master to be tempted."

"But will Lord Hou agree? Didn't Lord Hou always want to marry the Jiang family? The Jiang family is rich and powerful, and the young master of the Jiang family has the body of the best furnace and heavenly yin, and his cultivation base is still low, so it is easy to control. This Mr. Shen has an unknown origin and a high level of cultivation, so he doesn't look like a good stubble, I don't think Master Hou will be accurate."

"The horoscope has not been written yet. Maybe the young master wants to recruit a courtier, so what are you worrying about?"

"Hmm... But speaking of it, it seems that Lord Xiaohe from the Jiang family who retired from his marriage will finally appear in this youth monk competition. For hundreds of years, he has always been in awe, and his appearance this time is a big deal."

"Oh, you don't understand this, right? In fact, outsiders have said that the strength of Tianjianzong has shrunk a lot over the years, and that Mr. Xiaohe is so mysterious. Many people secretly speculate whether Mr. Xiaohe is the Dongfang Grandmaster in disguise. Deliberately trying to give face to his sect. So this time, the other three great masters forced Master Dongfang to promise that Mr. Xiaohe would come forward, otherwise... hum."

"Otherwise what?"

"Otherwise, after this, the Heavenly Sword Sect will lose the right to give priority to recruiting new students. I heard from them that the four great masters have already negotiated, and the results of this young monk competition will directly determine the order in which all sects will recruit new students in the future. If the Heavenly Sword Sect can't win the top spot, there won't be such a good source of students."

"Wow, that's really big news."

"If that Mr. Xiaohe is really a dummy, the four major sects in the Yunzhou Continent may have to reshuffle their cards."

Afterwards, the two chatted about some unimportant matter. Jiang Zhuyue opened her eyes expressionlessly, and a thought suddenly came to her mind——in his opinion, those disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect were all rotten to the root. However, if he used Shen Yu's identity to participate in the competition, crushing everyone, defeating Xiao Han, and causing Tianjianzong to fall out of the position of the four major sects, it would be considered a breath of anger from himself.

Anyway, the Young Monks Competition is two months away, and this time is enough time for him to find Lin Jin.

Thinking about it this way, Jiang Zhuyue's originally depressed mood suddenly became a little happier.

At this time, the little monster seemed to have noticed the change in Jiang Zhuyue's mood, so he turned over on his belly and licked Jiang Zhuyue's fingers affectionately.

This action made Jiang Zhuyue even more happy, and now he lowered his head and scratched the little monster's belly and said, "You should grow up quickly, and when I defeat those guys from the Heavenly Sword Sect, I will set up my own family someday. I will let you be the god beast of the town faction."

What Jiang Zhuyue said was just a joke, but the little monster was very excited when he heard it. He even raised his head, raised his tail, and howled twice.

The playful appearance of the little monster amused Jiang Zhuyue again. He smiled and played with the little monster for a while, then temporarily put aside the sadness of leaving Lin Jin, embraced the little monster, and fell into a deep sleep .

·

However, Jiang Zhuyue did not expect that many things were not as easy as he imagined.

He originally thought that Nie Xiaoqing was exaggerating about the monster and wanted to keep him.

Unexpectedly, after the carriage drove for several days, what he saw and heard on the road was enough to shock Jiang Zhuyue.

Those monsters were not only fierce but also cunning, they pretended to be injured or hungry lost monks and fell down by the roadside, coaxing the monks to save them.

When the monks stepped forward, the monsters suddenly attacked, possessed the monks' bodies, sucked up their energy, or turned them into puppets, and then attacked the next one.

And seized the monsters of the monks, inherited the memory of the monks, went to find their companions, and wiped them all out.

This kind of method, even after listening to it, makes people feel that the vest is cold and hard to guard against.

It was only now that Jiang Zhuyue understood why Nie Xiaoqing, a master in the Void Refinement Stage, was so nervous.

If you are caught off guard, no matter how high your cultivation level is, as long as you place an order, it will be a delicious meal for the monsters.

And the road in front of him is the only way to go back to the major sects. These monsters are specially ambush here, and they feel that there should be someone behind them.

Jiang Zhuyue pursed her lips slightly, and couldn't help but wonder if these monsters came from the same organization as Lin Jin. Now that they have become like this, what about Lin Jin?Lin Jin didn't get the Tongtian Monument and went back to deal with business. Will his master kill him?

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhuyue's heart ached again.

Soon, it was another day and night.

Originally, the Qi family's team of carriages was heavily guarded, and all carriages were restrained, so they would never stop the carriages to rest at night.

But that night, there was really no way, because for some unknown reason, the horses driving suddenly foamed at the mouth and were too tired to walk.

And this road out of the endless forest has already been blocked by the four great masters. No one is allowed to fly here with the sword, in order to prevent the monks from trespassing when the endless forest is not open, destroying the endless forest. environment of.The monks can only rely on horse-drawn carriages or on foot if they want to go in, and such a huge monster like a carriage is very easy to be found in normal times, and ordinary monks can't reach the Endless Forest at all on foot, which greatly maintains the ecology around the Endless Forest.

Unexpectedly, the current blockade has become a reminder for many monks.

The monsters slaughtered recklessly, and the monks had no idea which one was the real companion.

And this time, the sudden abnormality of the Linjus actually sounded the alarm for everyone.

After Nie Xiaoqing found out about this, he immediately stopped the convoy and strictly prohibited everyone from leaving the carriage.

After all, the carriage was pasted with prohibitions drawn by masters of the transformation stage. As long as those monsters were not powerful enough to a certain level, it would be difficult for them to enter the carriage for a while.

After the convoy stopped, it was eerily quiet for a while.

At this time, Nie Xiaoqing heard the rustling leaves outside the carriage, and said in a deep voice: "No matter what sounds you hear or what abnormalities you see, don't open the windows, let alone leave the carriage, otherwise, no one can save you After that, everything was communicated in coded language, you hear?"

Everyone in the car answered Nie Xiaoqing's words in coded words one by one, and Nie Xiaoqing was relieved, but he still didn't dare to relax his vigilance, his thin lips were slightly pursed, and he used his spiritual sense to sense the abnormalities around him.

At this time, Jiang Zhuyue also lightly pressed her hand on the board wall, listening attentively to the movement outside.

Fortunately, everyone was very cautious at this time, no one left the carriage, and there were no strange sounds outside.

Jiang Zhuyue waited for about an hour, and when he was feeling drowsy, suddenly, a low voice pierced into his ears from afar.

"I'm in a hurry to pee, what should I do? Or I'll get out of the car?"

Jiang Zhuyue: ...

Another voice said: "Don't go, are you courting death?"

"I think it's quite quiet here, there's nothing, not even a ghost."

"Don't take Boss Nie's words for granted."

"Then I can't hold back anymore."

After speaking, there was a sound of the curtain, and the man seemed to have jumped out of the carriage.

And Nie Xiaoqing also said sharply at this moment: "Who got out of the car?"
