When the ancestors made a decision, could they have predicted the disasters that the human race and all creatures would encounter in the next 700 years?

Cutting off the Yangdi line, killing Zhulong, no matter which event is worthy of being written into the legend and remembered by others, Chen Wei and Che Shanxue can even vaguely imagine how they encountered difficulties and how they worked together to solve them.At that time, who knew that the 500 years of war almost destroyed most of the books and brilliance left over from the previous dynasty. Even the Yu family had to move several times, and finally shrank in the corner of the northeast.

And Che Shanxue is now facing more pressure than those ancestors.

For the seed of candle dragon.

"The seed of the candle dragon is a spiritual object that is only passed down in the hands of the saintesses of the Yu clan." Che Shanxue said.

This candle dragon seed, and the candle dragon seed born from the dead candle dragon mentioned above, although the two have the same name, are not the same thing.

But Chen Wei didn't really know any of them, so he listened carefully to what Che Shanxue told him.

"After my mother died, the Candle Dragon Seed was not returned to the Yu family, but was put away by my father. It looked like a broken black eggshell at the time, but it felt warm when touched. Putting it in the palm of your hand, you can feel it beating like the heart of a living thing. But it can’t keep warm and beating forever. If no one feeds it with blood essence, the temperature and beating of the scales will gradually weaken, and the aura on the surface will gradually weaken. It will also be dim, for example, when it was passed to me, it looked like a flake of stone."

As Che Shanxue spoke, she fell into memories.

It was a few days after the rainy night when he broke up with Chen Wei, Che Yan's belongings were sorted out.

Although Che Yan did not leave a will before his death, he started to build the imperial mausoleum very early in order to bury his queen.The things left to the two sons have always been prepared.

Some relics have unknown meanings, so naturally they belonged to Che Shanchang first.In terms of specifications, there were also some that were not used by the Ninth Five-Year Lord, so they were sent to Che Shanxue on that day.

Most of them are not precious things, such as the wooden sword that Che Shanxue used to practice swords when she was a child, or the scraps left over from that piece of meteorite after finishing the Star Curtain Sword.Che Shanxue, who had been in a daze since Chen Wei left, slowly regained her sanity while tidying up, and suddenly found a small lacquered gold box among a lot of sundries.

This small box looked familiar, Che Shanxue remembered that Che Yan always carried it around to press the heels of his robes, so that for a period of time, it was fashionable to use the unique box to press the heels of his robes in the whole of Hongjing.

Che Shanxue also has quite a few of them, and often packs a few taels of silver for convenience.However, he had seen this small lacquered gold box on Che Yan so many times, and never thought about what his father would use it for.

People are often like this, if you don't notice it, you will turn a blind eye, if you notice it, your curiosity will not be suppressed for days and nights.

Che Shanxue opened the box as a matter of course, and found a dim and gray Candle Dragon Seed in it, and a long and thin scroll that was as thick as a little finger.

He opened the scroll, only to see that on the impenetrable silk surface, someone wrote petty characters with delicate brushwork, which was——

"This thing sucks people's essence and blood, and takes people's lifespan. It is extremely sinister, so you must not be careless. It is the seed of the candle dragon. If it can hatch, the long-cherished wish can be fulfilled."

Che Shanxue recited the words on that scroll back then, word for word.

Chen Wei frowned when he heard the first two sentences.

He was as aware of something as Che Shanxue was back then, and he couldn't help carefully looking at Che Shanxue's face now.

Of course, Chen Wei didn't see anything unusual, Che Shanxue was already shocked back then, how could he still show signs now.

But he didn't lie to Chen Wei, and said: "I think you also know that most of the saintesses of the Yu family died early, and my mother is the longest-lived one in hundreds of years."

Chen Wei was silent for a moment, then asked, "What about your father?"

"Dozens of imperial doctors couldn't find out the cause of death, so it was a sudden death," Che Shanxue said, "Of course, it makes sense to say that the life span that should have been taken away by something."

Chen Wei ground his teeth.

"You didn't throw away this life-threatening thing..."

"Why throw it away?" Che Shanxue said, "If my father knew it was harmful, but still carried it with him, and then died suddenly, then I have to figure out why he did it."

Chen Wei always hated his tone of not taking his own life seriously.The problem is that now what Che Shanxue has to do has been done, and Chen Wei can't even stop it.I had no choice but to suddenly stuff the teacup into Che Shanxue's hand, let the bastard drink some water and shut up, and give Chen Wei some time to calm down.

Che Shanxue moistened his throat graciously, "Where are we talking?"

When it comes to your decision to commit suicide at that time, Chen Wei replied in his heart.

And Che Shanxue said it casually at first, it is impossible for him not to remember what he said, and now he continued: "So I took the seed of the candle dragon with me, but at that time I was deficient in Qi and blood, and had no blood essence and life span to feed it. Later It would be better if I started to learn Zhuyu, and with the manuscripts of the ancestors of the Yu family brought to me by Yu Xingxing, I also gradually understood the origin of some of these things, such as the inheritance of the saintess of the Yu family. Turned into a candle dragon. At that time, I thought 'candle dragon' was a synonym for a secret technique, but I didn't expect..."

Unexpectedly, an accident happened soon.

The scales called Candle Dragon Seed were nourished by Che Shanxue's spiritual power, turning black and shiny, making them even less ordinary.One time, Che Shanxue took it out of the small box to observe, and dropped it to the ground, and then it blended into the shadow of the ground without any violation.

Che Shanxue spent several days looking for it, but in the end he couldn't find it, so he could only admit that he accidentally lost it, and all his previous efforts were wasted.After seven days passed, a shadow not much thicker than a child's finger crawled up to Che Shanxue, trying to get into the small box.

If it wasn't for feeling a familiar aura from it, Che Shanxue would not have recognized it as the seed of the candle dragon.

Because considering that this thing seems to have something to do with the spiritual veins, Che Shanxue has been raising it ever since, and at first it was only raised with spiritual power.Later, the seed of the candle dragon grew half an inch, dissatisfied with only eating spiritual power, and was driven by his evil nature to attack others. Che Shanxue used his eyes as bait and imprisoned him in his own eyes.

"This kind of candle dragon is not a real candle dragon. It has no real body so far, and it is definitely not the same kind as the candle dragon that broke out of its shell 700 years ago." Che Shanxue said.

"I think you're right," Chen Wei nodded, and then asked, "So what are you worried about?"

Che Shanxue hesitated for a moment.

"It is impossible to have the same name for things that have nothing to do with each other. Although the seed of this candle dragon is not the seed of that candle dragon, there must be inextricable connections between the two. If the Lingmai Orb is telling the truth , then the Candle Dragon Seed in my hand—"

Before he finished speaking, Chen Wei put his fingers against his lips.

Both of them knew his unspoken meaning.

Will leaving this object lead to the resurrection of the candle dragon that the ancestors tried to kill 700 years ago?

The Candle Dragon Seed, who was snoring in the dream, would never have imagined that the reason why Che Shanxue was so anxious these days was because he was considering whether to kill him.

This is a rare thing. Generally, Che Shanxue really has murderous intentions for a person, and will never postpone making a decision until the next day.

However, he has been hesitant about this decision for four days.

And, after he told everything, Chen Wei showed a helpless smile and said, "So you are worrying about this kind of thing out of nothing."

Che Shanxue's forehead twitched, and repeated the word: "Worry?"

"Isn't it unfounded to worry about?" Chen Wei asked back, "For example, more than 70 years ago, you liked me, but you didn't tell me. Because you thought I would definitely not like you—"

"……and many more?"

"—From the fact that you please me, you can think about it all the way to if I find out about your secret love, what methods will you use to kill me, and there are a lot of plans attached to each method. Don't interrupt, this is an analogy. What's the problem with your thinking this way? After you make every guess except the first guess, it is based on the previous guess. In fact, your guesses may all be Wrong, right, there is only one thing, you please me."

"...Chen Wei," Che Shanxue said, "You're very short-mouthed today."

Chen Wei stretched out his hand to smooth Che Shanxue's frowning brows.

There was a smile that couldn't be hidden at the corner of his mouth, and he said, "Well, I'm so ecstatic."

Then he calmed down and said: "700 years ago is different from today, you are not wrong, don't think too much."

Che Shanxue's tense heart suddenly relaxed.

It's really strange that Chen Wei's words are not convincing, but they are like the sound of heaven in his ears.

At present, the Candle Dragon's Seed hasn't changed much, just be prepared.The most important things right now are the Demon Realm and the Spirit Vein.

Che Shanxue, who thinks like this, will not admit the impact of Chen Wei's words just now on him, restraining his emotions, and glanced at Chen Wei while saying: "Didn't you just say that I was right about one thing?"

In terms of eloquence, Sect Leader Chen will never be able to gain the upper hand over Che Shanxue.

But now he doesn't care about whether he has the upper hand or not. Since Che Shanxue confessed his heart last night, he has always maintained a state of bliss, like a kite flying with the wind.Fortunately, one end of the thread was firmly held by Che Shanxue, otherwise he might not have understood what Datong himself said just now.

To put it another way, Chen Wei still hasn't gotten rid of the little bit of drunkenness from last night.

Until Che Shanxue pushed open the paper window and looked out, letting the sky light pour on his face.

The half-dried black hair fell down like a waterfall, making Che Shanxue's face pale and blue.

Chen Wei woke up with a start.

When I saw Che Shanxue last night, this person's complexion wasn't so bad. Even Lin Yuan, who was picky, felt that Che Shanxue was recovering well.Now that one night has passed, all the effort Chen Wei spent over 20 days was in vain.

He clenched his clothes tightly in his hands and fell silent.

But Che Shanxue saw more and more people on the street, and suspected that if she didn't go back, the two apprentices might go to some minister's house to make trouble.He didn't want others to know that he didn't come home all night last night, and now that the packing is done, he shouldn't stay in Qingyun Tower any longer.

I don't know whether Chen Wei will continue to live here, or go to the side courtyard with him.

Che Shanxue remembered that there were still many vacant rooms in the courtyard.

He turned his head and was about to ask Chen Wei, when he raised his eyes and saw Chen Wei's flickering gaze, he couldn't help being stunned.

The two looked at each other for a few breaths, Chen Wei suddenly looked away, and said, "I need to travel far away, and I will be back in about seven days."

Che Shanxue: "..."

and many more.
