Hard to be a master

It is said to be reminiscing about the past, but in fact, the three people who only had a hasty side a few years ago have no old things to continue.Before knowing the relationship between Guan Jingxuan and Shen Ziliu, Ye Zhiyuan did have a good impression of Guan Jingxuan, so he gave him a city bag in order to have a chance to associate with him.In the past two years, he has been busy with family affairs, and now he came to Kunlun to visit friends just after he had some free time, and he did have some careful thoughts.However, he has always been a free-spirited person. After knowing that Guan Jingxuan and Shen Ziliu had become Taoist couples, he immediately adjusted his mentality and did not intend to entangle him at all.

When the Liancheng pouch was returned, Guan Jingxuan was thinking about finding something to chat about so that the three of them would not sit awkwardly in the front hall, when Ye Zhiyuan suddenly said: "Jingxuan, do you Kunlun monks also collect monsters at home? "

Guan Jingxuan was stunned, and said: "How could it be? Monsters are not only useless to cultivators, but also affect their cultivation. Even if a monk brings back a monster, it must be thrown into a secret realm or put into the magic lock bag. And Kunlun's dragon vein aura will purify the devil's energy. Even if the magic weapon of the devil world is placed in Kunlun, its effectiveness will gradually weaken. Only a demon cultivator who is as advanced as Mr. Ye and can freely release the devil's energy can stay In Kunlun without being repelled by the dragon vein aura."

"That's weird."

Ye Zhiyuan propped his chin and said slowly: "Since I entered Qingmengyuan, I have been vaguely feeling a trace of demon energy, although it is weak, it is very pure."

Guan Jingxuan was a little surprised when he heard this, and said: "Xiaoliu and I have lived in Kunlun all year round. We entered the world in Yangzhou two years ago, and we have never had any monsters around us. If we have to talk about contact, the only time we met Ye Gongzi was when we discussed Taoism in Shushan. I was hit by Wanye to appeal for love, and Xiaoliu was also planted with magic incense several years ago, but it has been lifted long ago. Could it be...?"

Ye Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "No, it's not Wanye's appeal. From the point of view of magic energy, the level of this item is much higher than Wanye's appeal, let alone such a low-level monster as Yinmoxiang."

Guan Jingxuan looked at Shen Ziliu, and Shen Ziliu's eyes were also full of confusion: "When I retreated alone, I never brought out the monsters in the illusion."

Guan Jingxuan thought for a while, then frowned slightly, and said to Shen Ziliu in a low voice: "Could it be when we were on Mount Emei..."

Before Shen Ziliu recalled the situation when he met Jiuli carefully, he heard Ye Zhiyuan say: "This devilish energy does not come from the two of you, but in this courtyard."

Both the master and the apprentice looked at Ye Zhiyuan, who caressed the folded fan in his hand and said casually, "I don't know if Jing Xuan would mind taking me around Qingmeng Garden? After all, I am a member of the Demon Race." , the perception of demonic energy is much stronger than that of ordinary people, and maybe you can find things that you can't find."

In fact, cultivators are quite sensitive to demonic energy, but no matter whether Guan Jingxuan, Shen Ziliu, or Sun Yumo and Ling Xifeng who often come to Qingmengyuan, none of them is aware of the demonic energy Ye Zhiyuan mentioned. Qi has noticed.If it was true what Ye Zhiyuan said, then the monster hidden in Qingmeng Garden might be in big trouble, so Guan Jingxuan readily agreed, got up and led Ye Zhiyuan back to the front yard.

After some investigation, Ye Zhiyuan said that there was nothing unusual in the front yard, so Guan Jingxuan led him through the front hall and into the back yard.Almost as soon as he entered the backyard, Ye Zhiyuan's gaze was fixed on the lotus pond under the plane tree in the backyard.To be more precise, it is on the closed lotus flower in the lotus pond.

After walking to the edge of the lotus pond, Ye Zhiyuan looked at the lotus for a while, then turned to Guan Jingxuan, "Does Jingxuan know when and where this lotus came from?"

Guan Jingxuan said truthfully: "I don't know. I built Qingmengyuan here more than 30 years ago. At that time, this lotus pond and this flower had existed, and they had not changed for decades. The flower was a few years ago. It once opened a crack, but it didn't take long before it returned to its original appearance, until today... Is there anything wrong with this flower?"

Ye Zhiyuan was thoughtful when he heard the words, and said, "Let me confirm."

As he spoke, Ye Zhiyuan raised his right hand and gathered a cloud of purple-black devilish energy in his palm. Outside the devilish energy was covered with a barrier to protect the devilish energy from being swallowed by Kunlun's dragon vein aura too quickly.He changed his usual lazy appearance, and concentrated on staring at the palm of his hand. There was a circle of blood in his deep black eyes, which looked a little strange.

Soon, a phantom of a black lotus gradually condensed from the surging devilish energy. Ye Zhiyuan raised his hand and sent it into the lotus pond. After the phantom of the black lotus circled around the lotus in the pond twice, the phantom The flower bone, which had been tightly closed all this time, shook and began to bloom at an extremely slow speed.

As the layers of petals gradually unfolded, the lotus pond, which was still aura pure just now, was instantly filled with strong magic energy, as if a high-level monster was imprisoned in this pond.The two spirit carp scrambled anxiously in the pool, and kept bumping against the wall of the pool farthest from the lotus without knowing the pain.Guan Jingxuan was surprised to find that although the outermost layer of the lotus in the pool was green, the petals wrapped inside were black, only the edges and tips of the petals were stained with blood red, and the phantom of the black lotus condensed by Ye Zhiyuan Almost exactly the same.

"What is this..."

Guan Jingxuan was looking at the half-bloomed black lotus in the lotus pond and muttering to herself, but suddenly heard a short muffled groan from the people around her, and when she turned her head to look, she saw Shen Ziliu holding his clothes tightly on his chest and bowing slightly His body was bent, his brows were frowning, and his face turned blue and white, as if he was suppressing great pain.

"Xiaoliu?!"

Guan Jingxuan was taken aback, and subconsciously stretched out her hand to help him, not wanting that just as she touched Shen Ziliu, the other party groaned in pain and knelt down on one knee, the veins on his forehead bulged, and his head was covered with fine sweat.Guan Jingxuan panicked, and was about to take out the dream to relieve Shen Ziliu, but Ye Zhiyuan who was beside him said calmly, "Don't worry", then he clenched his right hand suddenly, and the phantom of the black lotus disappeared in an instant, while the person in the pool The lotus also quickly closed and returned to its tightly closed appearance.At the same time, Shen Ziliu took a deep breath and finally recovered.

Guan Jingxuan tentatively touched Shen Ziliu's forehead, and seeing that the other party didn't react as violently as before, she stretched out her hand to help him up, with distressed and worried eyes.

"How? Are you still uncomfortable?"

Shen Ziliu quickly adjusted his breathing, gently shook Guan Jingxuan's hand, shook his head and said, "I'm fine, I just had some palpitations just now, master, don't worry."

Ye Zhiyuan glanced at him with a half-smile.

After wiping the sweat off Shen Ziliu's forehead, Guan Jingxuan looked at Ye Zhiyuan: "Young Master Ye, what happened just now?"

Ye Zhiyuan suppressed all the devilish energy, returned to that casual look, and said with a slight smile: "It's not a big deal, it's just that your little disciple's inner devil is connected with this devil flower."
