Fire and theft prevention

He left the hall.

Gu Xiao wore a cold sword on his waist, stepped into the abdomen of the beast, and shuttled between the ribs of the forest.

The lights were faint, and a snow-colored long sword hovered slowly at the end of the hall, reflecting silver light.Looking closely, there is a crack in the center of the long sword, which is healing at an extremely slow speed.

"You have decided." Someone in the hall suddenly said.

Gu Xiao solemnly knelt down and said, "Forgive me for being unfilial. Today, I will go to Lingao Sect with Senior Le."

"Have you said goodbye to your mother?" Qin Guan asked.

"...No." Gu Xiao's voice was cold and firm, "I don't want my mother to go to that place again."

Qin Guan didn't say anything to persuade him, he closed his eyes and meditated, and his figure was hidden in the darkness again.

But Gu Xiao didn't leave immediately.He knelt down in the hall, and suddenly asked: "Master, have you ever regretted cultivating demons?"

Qin Guan said: "I don't regret it. If I hadn't cultivated demons, even if I spent hundreds of years, I wouldn't be able to match my current status."

He stared at his disciple in the dark, "And you——with your aptitude, you can become a generation of demon masters with all your efforts in training from the palace."

Gu Xiao was silent.He knew that he was different from the master.

Whether Qin Guan admits it or not, the obsession that has imprisoned him all his life is to be treated seriously by the world. In order to realize this long-cherished wish, he must have the power and status to match it.

As for Gu Xiao, he has nothing else to ask for except to destroy Bu Chengbi.In the future, he doesn't care whether he is the king of the demon world or wanders around the world.

"However," Qin Guan's voice revealed a trace of sadness, "Some people will part ways with you because of this, and you will never be able to walk together in an open and honest manner."

After Gu Xiao heard this, he paused slightly.

He thought of Huo Ting, who was noisy and troublesome, and often messed up the jelly grass when he was practicing.When he finished his practice, he behaved like a quail, crouching his neck to listen to his reprimand.

It is said that there is no sun and moon in practice, but only three months have passed since Huo Long's retreat, and he is in the dim scarlet hall, but he has already begun to miss that period of flying around.

The sweet-scented osmanthus of Mount Gaotu has already bloomed.

"'Giving' and 'gaining' always go hand in hand. Whatever you get, you have to let go of it." Qin Guan seemed to sigh deeply, "Sometimes, we think that we want to devote our whole life to obsession, but maybe it's just a momentary fascination." barrier."

Gu Xiao was slightly confused, then suddenly raised his head and observed Qin Guan probingly.He felt that this person who was speaking deeply and rationally did not look like a master, so he couldn't help but be shocked.

Qin Guan coughed in embarrassment, and said: "I didn't say this, it was told to me by your Uncle Mu before. Just listen to it."

Gu Xiao thought to himself, the person the master refers to who parted ways may be Master Mu.The master tried his best to order him to take Uncle Mu to the Demon Realm, but he didn't even say a word until he said goodbye.

If he cultivates demons, I am afraid he will do the same.

"Thank you, master, for your teaching." Gu Xiao bowed his head, his temple hair drooping, covering his brows and eyes, "I will consider it carefully."

-------------------------------------

On Qingqiu Mountain thousands of miles away, Mu Qingjia couldn't help but sneezed and rubbed the tip of his red nose.

Huo Wei looked at him, turned his eyes around his reddish nose and eye sockets, and pursed his thin lips silently.

After nearly a month of being alone, Mu Qingjia has already figured out the courtship signal of his junior brother, and automatically interprets that expression as "seeking kisses and hugs".

"Be more serious." Mu Qingjia secretly smiled inwardly, her face serious, "I'm going to see my mother-in-law soon."

Huo Wei didn't notice that he was being taken advantage of, and only thought that it was the senior brother who wanted to confirm their relationship on his own initiative, so he suppressed his heartbeat and said solemnly: "Got it."

Mu Qingjia turned her face to snicker, only dared to say in her heart: "Young lady is so good."

They climbed the moss-covered stone steps, passed through the dilapidated archway side by side, and came to the Fox Immortal Temple.

Mu Qingjia's lost primordial spirit, together with their hope of living together, is buried here.

He should have been elated, but as they walked towards the fox cave step by step, Mu Qingjia's mind gradually became serious.

When Huo Wei lifted the fox cave's cover-up and was about to step into it, Mu Qingjia suddenly stopped him and said, "I'll go down by myself. There won't be any danger. Ah Wei just wait here for me."

Huo Wei asked, "What are you worried about?"

Mu Qingjia forced a smile, he knew that he must be out of his mind right now.

He knew all the prophecies about Ah Wei's destruction of the world from the fox fairy.

The elder who guarded the mortal world, the former king of all demons, had already known the fate bestowed on Huo Wei by the way of heaven.

If it were anyone, they would spare no effort to kill this possibility of annihilation.

On the Underworld Butterfly Sword, Mu Qingjia had already anticipated all possible situations.

It's a good situation for Hu Immortal to refuse to return his primordial spirit. The worst plan is that she and Ah Wei will have a direct conflict.

But all of this, due to the predictive rules, cannot be clearly stated to the junior.

Seeing that he didn't answer for a long time, Huo Wei pinched the tips of his ears and said, "There's nothing to worry about. I've been here three times already."

With one word to wake up the dreamer, most of Mu Qingjia's worries dissipated in an instant.

That's right, Ah Wei has come here three times, but every time the fox fairy has no intention of killing him, so at least - she can't hurt Ah Wei in front of him.

As for whether to return the primordial spirit or not, it cannot be decided whether or not to take Awei down.

If she really refused, Mu Qingjia was already ready to grab her.Coupled with Ah Wei's combat power, the chances of winning are even greater.

"What Ah Wei said is true." He smiled and said relaxedly, "Let's go see mother-in-law together."

Only this time did Huo Wei understand the deep meaning of the senior brother's emphasis on the title, and raised his eyebrows.

There are still countless fox armpit silks and soul-destroying bells hanging in the fox cave. They walked forward along the cave, and occasionally encountered one or two young fox demons, who stood by the wall and bowed their heads in salute.

"The king has been waiting for you for a long time." Said a fox demon in the form of a little girl.

Mu Qingjia thanked politely.

"It's us who should thank you." The little girl respectfully said, "I thank the immortal for saving our king from Moxiu last time."

It sounded like the fox fairy had told them everything.After the civil strife in the fox clan caused by the magic cultivator, she became more concerned about all Qingqiu fox monsters' cognition of immortal cultivators and demon cultivators.

Mu Qingjia could feel that most of the fox demons were sincere in their gratitude, while the rest exuded fear.

Just like the little fox clinging to the wall, shrunk into a fox ball, wishing to shrink back into the wall.

The closer Mu Qingjia got, the tighter she shrank.

He rubbed his face, doubted himself for a while, and then suddenly looked behind him.

Sure enough, Huo Wei was following him closely, his expression was unclear in Mu Qingjia's eyes, but murderous in the eyes of other creatures.

Mu Qingjia looked at the shivering Xiaotuanzi again, and realized.

"Did he bully you?"

Hu Tuanzi hurriedly shook his head: "Yes, he let us out of the cage! Thank you, thank you Immortal! Little Fox is very grateful!"

"Then why are you shaking?" Mu Qingjia was puzzled.

"But he, he's so scary." Hu Tuanzi was about to cry, "At that time, our sisters thought that he was going to burn us into a cage and roast all the foxes."

Huo Wei opened her eyes slightly, a little innocently, but in the eyes of the fox demons, they were staring at her fiercely.

Hu Tuanzi finally groaned and burst into tears.

Mu Qingjia covered his mouth, but still let out a "puchi" laugh, he simply couldn't bear it anymore, and leaned on his junior brother's shoulder and laughed lightly.

"Ah Wei was disgusted by the girl." He said, "I need to laugh more in the future."

Huo Wei was rarely annoyed by his teasing, she looked away from him for a while, and then slowly broke into a smile.

Mu Qingjia was stunned.

He thought blankly, if Ah Wei was a concubine, he would inevitably be that foolish prince who plays with the flames of the flames and makes beauties smile by riding on the world of mortals.

"Let's go." Huo Wei kissed his forehead lightly, and took his hand.

The two of them didn't realize that the little fox dumpling who was crying so much just now was so dazed that he forgot to cry when he saw them interacting.A strange blush appeared on her cheeks, and she was peeking at them from the gap in her fox tail.

The Qingqiu fox demon has always been obsessed with beauty and gossip. The stories of the two handsome immortals quickly spread in the mountains, and even drew volumes of pictures of spring palaces, which flowed to the monster clans in all directions.

This is something.

----

No matter how uneasy Mu Qingjia was, they finally came to the ice coffin carrying the fox fairy.

Now he has confirmed that the strange connection he felt in the ice coffin half a year ago came from his primordial spirit, but it was blocked by something, so the attraction was not so strong.

This ice coffin may be another closed world fragment that Xue Ziyi said.

A beautiful shadow floated out of the ice coffin, slowly solidifying, revealing a blank face.

"Jiaer." She said kindly.

Mu Qingjia thought of her mother, her whole body trembled slightly, she closed her eyes and bowed to her parents.

It was difficult for him to face the conflicts that might arise later, and his heart became heavier.

"I remember..."

Before he finished speaking, he looked to the side in a daze.

I saw Huo Wei kneeling beside him, earnestly saluting his parents just like him, and then said solemnly: "I've seen the fox fairy."

There was a polite smile on his face.

Anyone who sees him will probably regard him as a well-behaved son-in-law who came to see his mother-in-law, or a young and promising one.

Mu Qingjia's eyes widened, and she almost couldn't recognize her junior.

Hu Immortal also seemed a little surprised, and said after a while: "Don't come here without any harm, Huo Wei."

Mu Qingjia watched back and forth between the two, clenched his fists nervously, pondering the hidden meaning of the fox fairy's words in his heart.

Huo Wei looked calm and composed, but it was only "look", and his thin lips were tightly pursed, revealing his true emotions.

It's just that the reason why the brothers are nervous is not the same.

"I remembered." Mu Qingjia coughed lightly, and said again, "It's about that prophecy and what I left here. So I'm here...to get back my primordial spirit."

"Come in." Hu Immortal's voice could not detect any emotion, it was still gentle.

Mu Qingjia looked at the ice coffin again.

With his eyes, the ice coffin is similar to the thousands of hanging coffins on the cave wall, covered with dust.However, looking at it with the spiritual eyes, the ice coffin was a transparent ice blue color, and the figure lying inside was clearly visible.

With some speculation, Mu Qingjia opened the coffin.
