Now that the atmosphere was ruined, Xiao Ming couldn't continue to express his feelings in front of the public. He ruthlessly ignored Xuan Yue's slightly dissatisfied gaze, and bowed to Xuan Qi: "It's the Scarlet King of the Monster Race."
Xuan Ke was inexplicably stared at by his junior brother's stare, but at this moment he didn't have the energy to think deeply, his eyes were still fixed on the big red bird.
The big red bird was injured first, and then all its blood was extracted. At this time, it could only flap its wings feebly and let out a hoarse cry—not only could he not transform into a human form, he could not utter human form. I've said it—but those golden bird eyes still look so proud and indifferent.
Xuan Qi looked at the red-winged bird with a dazed expression.At this moment, he thought of a lot, such as drinking and chatting with King Chi in the forbidden place where he was detained, such as the uneasiness and apprehension he felt when he made up his mind to let him go, such as the self-blame when King Chi broke his promise and became fat, and severely injured his master And remorse——Xuan Ke once imagined thousands of scenes of killing the Red King with his hands. He thought that he would never have such a chance, and he would even sacrifice his life for it, but he never thought that the Red King would one day Appearing in front of him in such a weak and powerless posture.
After a long time, Xuan Qi took a deep breath, raised his eyes to look at Xiao Ming: "This...what the hell is going on? How did the Scarlet King end up like this?"
"This matter is a long story, let's talk about it one by one after meeting the head." Xiao Ming shook his head slightly - he didn't want to repeat the same lie twice, because it would greatly increase the chance of being exposed.
Xuan Qi was not persistent either, and nodded silently.
The head of the Luoshui Sect came very quickly. After seeing the "unscathed" Xiao Ming, he finally eased his tense face for many days, and let go of the heart he had been holding.
——Fortunately Xiao Ming was fine, otherwise Xuan Yue would have been destroyed too.The head of the Luoshui Sect is both gratified and dissatisfied with these two juniors. It is certainly a blessing to have a Taoist couple who love each other and share weal and woe, but if something happens to one of them, it will definitely implicate the other. .
"Tell me, what's going on here? Why were you arrested by the Yaozu? Where's your apprentice? The Scarlet King...why did you end up like this?" The head of the Luoshui Sect held the two juniors The impulse to reprimand him was the first to deal with the business.
Hearing the headmaster's question, Xiao Ming was slightly surprised. He glanced at Xuanyue and said hesitantly, "The headmaster...doesn't know about the relationship between me and Tianyu and the Yaozu?"
"Of course I don't know!" The head of Luoshuizong stared and snorted coldly at Xuanyue, "Xuanyue only said that you were eight out of ten and nine were captured by the demon clan, but you refused to reveal the reason, it's really maddening Already!"
Regarding the headmaster's accusation, Xuan Yue was not moved at all, but looked at Xiao Ming seriously: "I promised you that I will never let a third person know."
Xiao Ming's heart softened, and he gently squeezed Xuanyue's fingertips - he knew that Xuanyue made a promise, but he never thought that at such a time, he would still stick to his promise, he couldn't help feeling helpless and funny.
Seeing the sticky behavior between the two, the head of Luoshuizong became more and more dissatisfied, but unexpectedly, without waiting for him to continue questioning, he saw Xiao Ming lift up his clothes and kneel down neatly.
The head of Luoshuizong was taken aback: "What is this for?!"
"This junior has done something wrong, so naturally I have to apologize." Xiao Ming lowered his head slightly, and immediately told the whole story about his apprentice's bloodline from the demon race—of course, he concealed that he knew that Lu Tianyu was a half-demon when he was recruiting his apprentice. In fact, anyway, the Lu family has been murdered and silenced, but instead vividly described how Lu Tianyu was bullied and tortured by his tribe when he was a child.He met Lu Tianyu by chance, and felt pity for this child. Later, he found out that this child was extremely talented, so he thought of taking him as his apprentice.After knowing the identity of the other party's half-demon and inferring that the other party's biological father is the Scarlet Queen, he couldn't bear to expel and hurt the child he raised single-handedly, so he helped him hide it until Lu Tianyu was discovered by his biological father, and he was arrested together with him. Yaozu.
All in all, Xiao Ming was a white lotus in this process. He was first deceived because of his kindness, and then he was sheltered because of his love for his disciples. What he did was a choice that a pure, kind and soft-hearted person would make— —and then take all the blame on his own shoulders.
"All of this was caused by this junior's selfishness. This junior feels deeply guilty and is willing to accept the punishment." Xiao Ming bowed his head, his voice was calm but trembling slightly.
Xuan Yue looked at it with special distress, and even selectively forgot a part of the "truth" that he once knew. The wife and husband followed (?) and knelt down side by side with Xiao Ming: "I should be guilty of the same crime if I don't report what I know."
The head of Luoshuizong stroked his beard and sighed softly.Although he blamed Xiao Ming for concealing such a major event and almost causing a catastrophe, he could empathize with it.As a master, you can't do anything with your beloved disciples, and you always hope that the other party will go well, but if you can smooth out the mistakes, you will want to reach out to help smooth them out—such as Lu Tianyu's to Xiao Ming, For example, Xuan Yue is to him.
These juniors are all debt collectors, but people have to willingly protect them.
"Okay, what are you doing kneeling! Stand up! I'll talk about the plea later, let's talk about the business first!" The head of Luo Shuizong snorted, obliquely erased the "pleading" from the "business", decisively Continued the tradition of short-term protection.
Xiao Ming and Xuan Yue responded in a low voice, then they both stood up, Xuan Yue remained silent, while Xiao Ming began to describe how he and Lu Tianyu were captured and imprisoned by the monster clan.
As long as the fault of Lu Tianyu's half-demon blood is exposed, there is nothing to hide from now on. Xiao Ming erased the small actions he made in it, and shifted the responsibility of catching the half-demon for experiments to the Red King, and then put the last Lu Tianyu's whereabouts were changed: "When the Scarlet King heard that someone was attacking, he ordered the demon cultivator to remove Tianyu and the medicine vat, and he went out to check the situation..." After a pause, Xiao Ming looked at Luo Luo expectantly. The head of the Water Sect, "Has anyone found Tian Yu's whereabouts?"
"No." The head of the Luoshui Sect shook his head, and he couldn't bear to see Xiao Ming's dim eyes instantly, but he had to ruthlessly point out everything, "He is a half-demon, and now he has probably removed the blood of the human race and became a real demon." Yaozu. You...just pretend you don’t have this disciple, after all, you are human. Yao Shutu, what you have done for him is enough.”
"Junior...understand." Xiao Ming closed his eyes, his eyelashes trembling slightly, and his voice suppressed reluctance and bitterness.
"Then what's going on with the Scarlet King of the Monster Race?" Not wanting Xiao Ming to continue to indulge in the emotion of losing his beloved disciple, the head of the Luoshui Sect changed the topic.Xuan Qi, who had been standing silently by the side, was shocked immediately, and looked at Xiao Ming with piercing eyes.
Xiao Ming calmed down his emotions, and hesitated for a moment: "This... I am not very clear. At that time, the Red King saw that the situation was over, and wanted to take me away together, but the younger generation would rather die than follow - I thought it was inevitable. I never thought that a senior would appear suddenly and knock the Scarlet King flying with a single palm."
Xiao Ming completely erased the relationship between himself and "that senior", but he simply shirked that the purpose of "senior" was the thousand-year-old red-winged bird's blood essence, and it was just a passing convenience to save him.After the thousand-year-old red-winged bird's blood was obtained, the senior left, and Xiao Ming thought of the grievances between Luoshuizong, Xuanyue master and apprentice, and the Red King, so he took the opportunity to restrain the Red King who had lost all his skills, so as to make up for his past. fault.
Xiao Ming's statement is ambiguous, but there is not much mistake.Xuan Yue is known as the No. 1 Taoist combat power, but that only refers to the range of frequent activities in the cultivation world today, and there are old monsters in the stage of leaving the body and the stage of crossing the catastrophe. .
The blood essence and blood of the thousand-year-old red-winged bird are extremely precious, it can be said that it is the only one, and a certain ancestor needs it, so he takes advantage of it.It is not impossible to come out and seize it during the demon calamity.
Xiao Ming, who was the only one present, could not have caused any harm to the Red King, so the only remaining possibility was the powerful Patriarch who appeared suddenly.
The head of Luoshuizong looked sideways at Zhenjun Yuanying, who had checked the scene beside him, and seeing the other party nodded slightly, he knew that the traces left at the scene were not much different from Xiao Ming's description.Since it made sense, the head of Luoshuizong didn't want to, or didn't have the time and energy to delve into it, so he simply raised his hand to let the two of them back down, and put his energy on other places.
This time, all the people who participated in the raid were Nascent Soul and Elder Jindan of Luoshuizong. They not only successfully killed most of the elite demon cultivators under the Red King's seat, but also arrested the Red King himself. Solve this monster invasion and restore peace to the world.
Not long ago, the monster cultivators who were still staring at his Nascent Soul flesh and blood, but now they have all become alchemy and weapon refining materials for human cultivation. Such a rapid feng shui rotation made Xiao Ming feel deeply moved.
While Xiao Ming was watching with great interest the many Jindan elders with lower cultivation levels in the Luoshui Sect tirelessly cleaning the battlefield and picking up corpses, the hand hanging by his side was touched quietly tentatively, and then Before Xiao Ming could react, he was held firmly again.Slowly but firmly inserted his slightly cool fingers with calluses from years of holding swords.Entered between Xiao Ming's fingers, intertwined with his fingers.
Xiao Ming looked sideways at Xuan Yue, and also held Xuan Yue's hand.
Xuan Yue's eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up. Although his face didn't change much, it was still as calm as before, but anyone could tell at a glance that he was in a happy mood at this moment.
Tightening the hands that held Xiao Ming, Xuan Yue coughed lightly, and said in a low voice: "You haven't finished what you said earlier."
Xiao Ming looked at Xuan Yue with a smile, and brushed the other's gradually congested auricle teasingly, knowing what he was talking about, but negligently denied it: "What are you referring to? What else do I have to say? "
Although he had been with Xiao Ming for a hundred years, at that time Xiao Ming was gentle and considerate. Unless he had to stick to the bottom line, he would never make things difficult for Xuan Yue. How could he have such a vile appearance now?Xuan Yue could naturally see Xiao Ming's teasing, although he was bewildered, but a little sweet, and felt that this kind of Xiao Ming was real and alive.
"Ask knowingly." Xuan Yue pursed his lips, completely unsure of how to deal with the current situation of both joy and worry, and a bit of annoyance and grievance could not help but appear in his calm tone.
"You really wronged me. How could I ask the question? I really can't remember?" Xiao Ming tilted his head in surprise. Both his expression and tone were extremely sincere. Only those eyes full of smiles His eyes revealed his bad taste at this moment.
Xiao Ming refused to admit it life and death, and Xuan Yue had nothing to do with him, so he could only follow his inducement and continue to speak: "You said that you thought a lot about the things between you and me in Yaozu."
"So that's how it is." Xiao Ming suddenly realized and nodded, letting Xuan Yue go for a while, "I really thought about it a lot. Originally, I just wanted to take you as my best friend in this life, but when I was in the Yaozu, I really thought that I would be with you." When you have no chance to meet again, you find out that my friendship with you does not stop there."
Facing Xuan Yue's star-like eyes, eyes full of anticipation and love, Xiao Ming couldn't restrain himself from playing tricks on the other party and looking at the other party.desire to change.see.Instead of continuing to confide the words Xuanyue wanted to hear, he frowned in distress: "But if it's not just friendship, then what is it?"
Xuan Yue: "..."
——The root of the tooth is so itchy!
Taking a deep breath, reminding himself to be calm, Xuan Yue was about to speak again, but suddenly closed his mouth and turned his head to look to one side.
Xuan Ke, who had just been released by the sect master after his lecture, was walking towards the two of them, suddenly stopped and shivered, with a bit of embarrassment on his face.
It's not that Xuan Qi is unsophisticated, it's just that his attention was focused on the Red King and he ignored the others.Now that the matter has been resolved and the dust has settled, Xuan Ke also realizes how spoiled he was at that time, but now... seems to have spoiled the scene again?
Xuan Qi tiptoed quietly, wanting to leave quietly, but unexpectedly Xiao Ming also turned his head and greeted him friendly: "Fellow Daoist Xuan Qi."
Being stopped by Xiao Ming, Xuan Ke had no choice but to bite the bullet and approach: "Even if you belong to the Tianxuan Sect now, you should still call me Senior Brother."
Xiao Ming was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "It was indeed my negligence, Senior Brother."
Previously, he didn't want to get too close with Xuanyue, so he even alienated people related to Xuanyue, but now...it's not necessary.
Xiao Ming's voice was soft and soft, this "senior brother" made Xuan Qin feel like a spring breeze, and the expression on his face was even more gentle and intimate.Xuan Yue, who was watching from the side, had a gloomy breath, frowned slightly and tugged at the hand that was holding Xiao Ming, to express his dissatisfaction with being ignored--watching his senior brother insert a vat horizontally, almost confirming his relationship with him The Taoist couple had a great time talking or something, and it was heartbreaking.
"I don't have anything else to do here this time, I just want to thank Junior Brother Xiao, thank you for subduing the Red King, and fulfilling my long-cherished wish for many years." Xuan Ke cupped his hands at Xiao Ming, trying his best to ignore his senior brother who had deep resentment .
"Senior brother, you don't need to be like this. I'm just going as far as I can. The one who really should thank is that unknown senior." Xiao Ming raised his other hand and said no.
"Naturally, I will never forget the kindness of that senior, but my junior still remembers the grievances between the Red King and us in such a dangerous situation. He didn't let the Red King take the opportunity to escape, and he treated me like a mountain of kindness." Xuan Qi forced a smile, "Next, the head of the sect plans to use the Scarlet King to cause civil strife in the demon tribe. After the demon calamity is over, I will be able to bring the Red King to the master's spiritual throne, and use his blood to pay homage to the master's spirit in heaven."
"And then?" Xuan Yue said coldly, "Will you stay in Luoshuizong, or continue guarding the Ten Desolate Forest?"
"...Maybe I stayed in Luoshuizong." Xuan Ke looked at his junior brother, "The master said that I have been in self-exile for long enough. This time, the senior unexpectedly appeared and helped me avenge my revenge. It is probably God's will to let me Let go of this past. After paying homage to Master, I plan to retreat and try to expel my demons."
"That's very good." Xuan Yue nodded slightly, "Your talent is not inferior to mine. Whether it's senior brother, me, master, or head, I hope you can regain your strength and go on the road again."
"Thank you for your good words." Xuan Ke's smile finally relaxed a little, "Wait for me to slay my demons, the three of us brothers and sisters must have a good drink!"
Xuan Yue tilted his head, making no secret of his lack of interest in drinking, but he did not object.
"Of course, Junior Brother Xiao has to come with you! Eldest brother likes tea, and junior brother doesn't even touch alcohol. Only you, Junior Brother Xiao, can accompany me for a few drinks!" Ignoring his junior brother's frustrated expression, Xuan Qi turned Xiao Ming opened his mouth to invite, and just raised his hand to pat him on the shoulder, but was frozen in mid-air by Xuan Yue's cold gaze, and finally had to withdraw it resentfully, and scratched his hair instead.
"If there is nothing wrong, you can leave." Pulling Xiao Ming behind him to block him, in order to prevent his unscrupulous senior brother from continuing to touch him, Xuan Yue kicked him out without any love from his senior brother.
"It's okay, it's okay! I won't disturb you anymore!" Xuan Ke waved his hand, took a step back helplessly and compromised, nodded to Xiao Ming, then turned and left.
Xuan Yue watched his back disappear, then relaxed his body, and looked back at Xiao Ming.
"Why do you look like you're facing a big enemy? Can't I just talk to other people?" Xiao Ming's tone was slightly complaining, and he couldn't be called unhappy, but he was really not used to Xuan Yue's way of protecting a calf. The appearance that separated him from everything around him.
"That's not the case." Realizing Xiao Ming's dissatisfaction, Xuan Yue was also a little at a loss, "I just... don't like you talking to other people, but ignore me... I don't like people getting close to you—I'm sorry .”
Xuan Yue was depressed, and Xiao Ming couldn't help but slow down his tone: "Why didn't you find out that you have such a problem of possessiveness before? At that time, I drank wine and tea with others, played the piano and played chess, and you never controlled me. "
Xuan Yue thought for a moment, then lowered his eyes slightly: "Probably... it's because I didn't really like you before."
Before being hit by the Gu worm, Xuan Yue had only a slight liking and familiarity with Xiao Ming, but after being controlled by the Gu worm, the love and attachment Xuan Yue felt was all controlled by the Gu worm.Gu worms can imitate the sweetness of love, but they can't understand the more complicated concerns about gains and losses, jealousy and confusion under the sweetness.
From love comes sorrow, from love comes fear.Love is never a single emotion, but a collection of many emotions—this kind of feeling can only be experienced by Xuan Yue who has dispelled the Gu worm and chased Xiao Ming with his true will and emotion.
The traction of fate and cause and effect; the vague affection when we first met; the sweet and harmonious relationship for a hundred years; the obsession and unwillingness after waking up; It is sweet, but more restless, apprehensive and lost.He wanted to get closer to Xiao Ming, but was pushed away time and time again by Xiao Ming, who was also full of anxiety. Even though he was now in love with the other party, the negative feelings that had remained in the past could not fade away so easily.
When rejected, you can restrain your desire to approach.Hope, now that Xiao Ming accepts it, he can't stand it anymore.
Xuan Yue couldn't wait to prove his importance in Xiao Ming's heart, wanted to stay with Xiao Ming all the time, and didn't want to see Xiao Ming's attention being attracted by any other person or thing—this worried him I just had a sweet dream, and then I will see Xiao Ming draw a clear boundary between the two again.
Xuan Yue's speech is clumsy, he can't describe his feelings at this moment in detail, he can only express his most sincere thoughts in a concise manner: "I'm afraid you will leave me again."
"...It's all my fault." Xiao Ming sighed, although Xuanyue didn't say it clearly, but in those black eyes that didn't hide his own, he also roughly understood how much damage he had done to Xuanyue.
And this kind of damage cannot be made up for in a few words, probably only a long time of companionship can gradually eliminate the uneasiness deeply imprinted in the other party's heart.
——Even if he kneels down, he has to pay for the sins he made, anyway, he has a lifetime to spend slowly with Xuan Yue.
The Taoist couple who have survived the catastrophe and shared their hearts clasped their hands and intertwined their gazes. At this time, silence speaks louder than words; while the Jindan elders who were picking up the corpses of the monster clans while their ears were pricked up, they tried hard to hide their faces. The excitement and thrill of hearing the shocking secret.
Although the conversation was endless and the semantics were ambiguous, this did not prevent them from picking out the key words of the phrase "I didn't really like you before", and instantly made up a series of sadomasochistic dramas .
The peak master Xuanyue, who is full of scum attributes, brought the poor fellow Taoist Xiao Ming back to Luoshuizong to become a Taoist couple, but it was not because of love but for other reasons. After a hundred years, fellow Taoist Xiao Ming learned the truth and ran away angrily. Only when the peak master loses does he realize how precious it is, and after going through untold hardships and being low-key, he finally coaxed his Taoist companion back...
So everything makes sense! The millennium (?) mystery of "Why Xiao Mingxuanyue, the loving Taoist couple broke up" has finally been solved!Simply exciting!
Elder A: "You really can't judge people by their appearances. I didn't expect Peak Lord Xuanyue to be such a person! I used to see him get along with fellow Taoist Xiao Ming, and I couldn't tell at all!"
Elder B: "Maybe the master of Xuanyue Peak is so scumbag that he has no consciousness at all? You must know that the most terrifying thing is not scumbags, but natural scumbags that don't know their own scumbags at all!"
Elder C: "Perhaps it was due to some accident or the extraordinary treasures that caused this result? After all, there are no wonders in the world. The master of Xuanyue peak accidentally ate poisonous weeds, fell in love with fellow Taoist Xiao Ming at first sight, and took it by force, and then suddenly detoxified How can Fellow Daoist Xiao Ming bear such a blow! One person has delicate feelings, and the other is not good at words, so conflicts naturally arise."
Elder D: "I also think this kind of statement is credible. The master of Xuanyue Peak is pure and consistent, and he can't pretend to be deeply affectionate but not in love. There must be some kind of moth behind him! The master is nothing more than a golden core, and it is not impossible for me to go down the mountain alone to practice for the first time, and accidentally learn something."
Elder E: "This monster is so powerful that it has been lurking in the main body of the peak for nearly a hundred years! Thinking about it, it is terrifying! You must be more cautious in your words and deeds when you go out in the future..."
The elders of Jindan lowered their voices, discussing in full swing, but Xiao Ming, who had already cultivated Nascent Soul in the distance, could hear it clearly, and wiped his face expressionlessly.
——I'm so sorry, Xuan Yue, you've been blamed again.But for our future, you should continue to carry this pot...
Xuan Ke was inexplicably stared at by his junior brother's stare, but at this moment he didn't have the energy to think deeply, his eyes were still fixed on the big red bird.
The big red bird was injured first, and then all its blood was extracted. At this time, it could only flap its wings feebly and let out a hoarse cry—not only could he not transform into a human form, he could not utter human form. I've said it—but those golden bird eyes still look so proud and indifferent.
Xuan Qi looked at the red-winged bird with a dazed expression.At this moment, he thought of a lot, such as drinking and chatting with King Chi in the forbidden place where he was detained, such as the uneasiness and apprehension he felt when he made up his mind to let him go, such as the self-blame when King Chi broke his promise and became fat, and severely injured his master And remorse——Xuan Ke once imagined thousands of scenes of killing the Red King with his hands. He thought that he would never have such a chance, and he would even sacrifice his life for it, but he never thought that the Red King would one day Appearing in front of him in such a weak and powerless posture.
After a long time, Xuan Qi took a deep breath, raised his eyes to look at Xiao Ming: "This...what the hell is going on? How did the Scarlet King end up like this?"
"This matter is a long story, let's talk about it one by one after meeting the head." Xiao Ming shook his head slightly - he didn't want to repeat the same lie twice, because it would greatly increase the chance of being exposed.
Xuan Qi was not persistent either, and nodded silently.
The head of the Luoshui Sect came very quickly. After seeing the "unscathed" Xiao Ming, he finally eased his tense face for many days, and let go of the heart he had been holding.
——Fortunately Xiao Ming was fine, otherwise Xuan Yue would have been destroyed too.The head of the Luoshui Sect is both gratified and dissatisfied with these two juniors. It is certainly a blessing to have a Taoist couple who love each other and share weal and woe, but if something happens to one of them, it will definitely implicate the other. .
"Tell me, what's going on here? Why were you arrested by the Yaozu? Where's your apprentice? The Scarlet King...why did you end up like this?" The head of the Luoshui Sect held the two juniors The impulse to reprimand him was the first to deal with the business.
Hearing the headmaster's question, Xiao Ming was slightly surprised. He glanced at Xuanyue and said hesitantly, "The headmaster...doesn't know about the relationship between me and Tianyu and the Yaozu?"
"Of course I don't know!" The head of Luoshuizong stared and snorted coldly at Xuanyue, "Xuanyue only said that you were eight out of ten and nine were captured by the demon clan, but you refused to reveal the reason, it's really maddening Already!"
Regarding the headmaster's accusation, Xuan Yue was not moved at all, but looked at Xiao Ming seriously: "I promised you that I will never let a third person know."
Xiao Ming's heart softened, and he gently squeezed Xuanyue's fingertips - he knew that Xuanyue made a promise, but he never thought that at such a time, he would still stick to his promise, he couldn't help feeling helpless and funny.

Not long ago, the monster cultivators who were still staring at his Nascent Soul flesh and blood, but now they have all become alchemy and weapon refining materials for human cultivation. Such a rapid feng shui rotation made Xiao Ming feel deeply moved.
While Xiao Ming was watching with great interest the many Jindan elders with lower cultivation levels in the Luoshui Sect tirelessly cleaning the battlefield and picking up corpses, the hand hanging by his side was touched quietly tentatively, and then Before Xiao Ming could react, he was held firmly again.Slowly but firmly inserted his slightly cool fingers with calluses from years of holding swords.Entered between Xiao Ming's fingers, intertwined with his fingers.
Xiao Ming looked sideways at Xuan Yue, and also held Xuan Yue's hand.
Xuan Yue's eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up. Although his face didn't change much, it was still as calm as before, but anyone could tell at a glance that he was in a happy mood at this moment.
Tightening the hands that held Xiao Ming, Xuan Yue coughed lightly, and said in a low voice: "You haven't finished what you said earlier."
Xiao Ming looked at Xuan Yue with a smile, and brushed the other's gradually congested auricle teasingly, knowing what he was talking about, but negligently denied it: "What are you referring to? What else do I have to say? "
Although he had been with Xiao Ming for a hundred years, at that time Xiao Ming was gentle and considerate. Unless he had to stick to the bottom line, he would never make things difficult for Xuan Yue. How could he have such a vile appearance now?Xuan Yue could naturally see Xiao Ming's teasing, although he was bewildered, but a little sweet, and felt that this kind of Xiao Ming was real and alive.
"Ask knowingly." Xuan Yue pursed his lips, completely unsure of how to deal with the current situation of both joy and worry, and a bit of annoyance and grievance could not help but appear in his calm tone.
"You really wronged me. How could I ask the question? I really can't remember?" Xiao Ming tilted his head in surprise. Both his expression and tone were extremely sincere. Only those eyes full of smiles His eyes revealed his bad taste at this moment.
Xiao Ming refused to admit it life and death, and Xuan Yue had nothing to do with him, so he could only follow his inducement and continue to speak: "You said that you thought a lot about the things between you and me in Yaozu."
"So that's how it is." Xiao Ming suddenly realized and nodded, letting Xuan Yue go for a while, "I really thought about it a lot. Originally, I just wanted to take you as my best friend in this life, but when I was in the Yaozu, I really thought that I would be with you." When you have no chance to meet again, you find out that my friendship with you does not stop there."
Facing Xuan Yue's star-like eyes, eyes full of anticipation and love, Xiao Ming couldn't restrain himself from playing tricks on the other party and looking at the other party.desire to change.see.Instead of continuing to confide the words Xuanyue wanted to hear, he frowned in distress: "But if it's not just friendship, then what is it?"
Xuan Yue: "..."
——The root of the tooth is so itchy!
Taking a deep breath, reminding himself to be calm, Xuan Yue was about to speak again, but suddenly closed his mouth and turned his head to look to one side.
Xuan Ke, who had just been released by the sect master after his lecture, was walking towards the two of them, suddenly stopped and shivered, with a bit of embarrassment on his face.
It's not that Xuan Qi is unsophisticated, it's just that his attention was focused on the Red King and he ignored the others.Now that the matter has been resolved and the dust has settled, Xuan Ke also realizes how spoiled he was at that time, but now... seems to have spoiled the scene again?
Xuan Qi tiptoed quietly, wanting to leave quietly, but unexpectedly Xiao Ming also turned his head and greeted him friendly: "Fellow Daoist Xuan Qi."
Being stopped by Xiao Ming, Xuan Ke had no choice but to bite the bullet and approach: "Even if you belong to the Tianxuan Sect now, you should still call me Senior Brother."
Xiao Ming was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "It was indeed my negligence, Senior Brother."
Previously, he didn't want to get too close with Xuanyue, so he even alienated people related to Xuanyue, but now...it's not necessary.
Xiao Ming's voice was soft and soft, this "senior brother" made Xuan Qin feel like a spring breeze, and the expression on his face was even more gentle and intimate.Xuan Yue, who was watching from the side, had a gloomy breath, frowned slightly and tugged at the hand that was holding Xiao Ming, to express his dissatisfaction with being ignored--watching his senior brother insert a vat horizontally, almost confirming his relationship with him The Taoist couple had a great time talking or something, and it was heartbreaking.
"I don't have anything else to do here this time, I just want to thank Junior Brother Xiao, thank you for subduing the Red King, and fulfilling my long-cherished wish for many years." Xuan Ke cupped his hands at Xiao Ming, trying his best to ignore his senior brother who had deep resentment .
"Senior brother, you don't need to be like this. I'm just going as far as I can. The one who really should thank is that unknown senior." Xiao Ming raised his other hand and said no.
"Naturally, I will never forget the kindness of that senior, but my junior still remembers the grievances between the Red King and us in such a dangerous situation. He didn't let the Red King take the opportunity to escape, and he treated me like a mountain of kindness." Xuan Qi forced a smile, "Next, the head of the sect plans to use the Scarlet King to cause civil strife in the demon tribe. After the demon calamity is over, I will be able to bring the Red King to the master's spiritual throne, and use his blood to pay homage to the master's spirit in heaven."
"And then?" Xuan Yue said coldly, "Will you stay in Luoshuizong, or continue guarding the Ten Desolate Forest?"
"...Maybe I stayed in Luoshuizong." Xuan Ke looked at his junior brother, "The master said that I have been in self-exile for long enough. This time, the senior unexpectedly appeared and helped me avenge my revenge. It is probably God's will to let me Let go of this past. After paying homage to Master, I plan to retreat and try to expel my demons."
"That's very good." Xuan Yue nodded slightly, "Your talent is not inferior to mine. Whether it's senior brother, me, master, or head, I hope you can regain your strength and go on the road again."
"Thank you for your good words." Xuan Ke's smile finally relaxed a little, "Wait for me to slay my demons, the three of us brothers and sisters must have a good drink!"
Xuan Yue tilted his head, making no secret of his lack of interest in drinking, but he did not object.
"Of course, Junior Brother Xiao has to come with you! Eldest brother likes tea, and junior brother doesn't even touch alcohol. Only you, Junior Brother Xiao, can accompany me for a few drinks!" Ignoring his junior brother's frustrated expression, Xuan Qi turned Xiao Ming opened his mouth to invite, and just raised his hand to pat him on the shoulder, but was frozen in mid-air by Xuan Yue's cold gaze, and finally had to withdraw it resentfully, and scratched his hair instead.
"If there is nothing wrong, you can leave." Pulling Xiao Ming behind him to block him, in order to prevent his unscrupulous senior brother from continuing to touch him, Xuan Yue kicked him out without any love from his senior brother.
"It's okay, it's okay! I won't disturb you anymore!" Xuan Ke waved his hand, took a step back helplessly and compromised, nodded to Xiao Ming, then turned and left.
Xuan Yue watched his back disappear, then relaxed his body, and looked back at Xiao Ming.
"Why do you look like you're facing a big enemy? Can't I just talk to other people?" Xiao Ming's tone was slightly complaining, and he couldn't be called unhappy, but he was really not used to Xuan Yue's way of protecting a calf. The appearance that separated him from everything around him.
"That's not the case." Realizing Xiao Ming's dissatisfaction, Xuan Yue was also a little at a loss, "I just... don't like you talking to other people, but ignore me... I don't like people getting close to you—I'm sorry .”
Xuan Yue was depressed, and Xiao Ming couldn't help but slow down his tone: "Why didn't you find out that you have such a problem of possessiveness before? At that time, I drank wine and tea with others, played the piano and played chess, and you never controlled me. "
Xuan Yue thought for a moment, then lowered his eyes slightly: "Probably... it's because I didn't really like you before."
Before being hit by the Gu worm, Xuan Yue had only a slight liking and familiarity with Xiao Ming, but after being controlled by the Gu worm, the love and attachment Xuan Yue felt was all controlled by the Gu worm.Gu worms can imitate the sweetness of love, but they can't understand the more complicated concerns about gains and losses, jealousy and confusion under the sweetness.
From love comes sorrow, from love comes fear.Love is never a single emotion, but a collection of many emotions—this kind of feeling can only be experienced by Xuan Yue who has dispelled the Gu worm and chased Xiao Ming with his true will and emotion.
The traction of fate and cause and effect; the vague affection when we first met; the sweet and harmonious relationship for a hundred years; the obsession and unwillingness after waking up; It is sweet, but more restless, apprehensive and lost.He wanted to get closer to Xiao Ming, but was pushed away time and time again by Xiao Ming, who was also full of anxiety. Even though he was now in love with the other party, the negative feelings that had remained in the past could not fade away so easily.
When rejected, you can restrain your desire to approach.Hope, now that Xiao Ming accepts it, he can't stand it anymore.
Xuan Yue couldn't wait to prove his importance in Xiao Ming's heart, wanted to stay with Xiao Ming all the time, and didn't want to see Xiao Ming's attention being attracted by any other person or thing—this worried him I just had a sweet dream, and then I will see Xiao Ming draw a clear boundary between the two again.
Xuan Yue's speech is clumsy, he can't describe his feelings at this moment in detail, he can only express his most sincere thoughts in a concise manner: "I'm afraid you will leave me again."
"...It's all my fault." Xiao Ming sighed, although Xuanyue didn't say it clearly, but in those black eyes that didn't hide his own, he also roughly understood how much damage he had done to Xuanyue.
And this kind of damage cannot be made up for in a few words, probably only a long time of companionship can gradually eliminate the uneasiness deeply imprinted in the other party's heart.
——Even if he kneels down, he has to pay for the sins he made, anyway, he has a lifetime to spend slowly with Xuan Yue.
The Taoist couple who have survived the catastrophe and shared their hearts clasped their hands and intertwined their gazes. At this time, silence speaks louder than words; while the Jindan elders who were picking up the corpses of the monster clans while their ears were pricked up, they tried hard to hide their faces. The excitement and thrill of hearing the shocking secret.
Although the conversation was endless and the semantics were ambiguous, this did not prevent them from picking out the key words of the phrase "I didn't really like you before", and instantly made up a series of sadomasochistic dramas .
The peak master Xuanyue, who is full of scum attributes, brought the poor fellow Taoist Xiao Ming back to Luoshuizong to become a Taoist couple, but it was not because of love but for other reasons. After a hundred years, fellow Taoist Xiao Ming learned the truth and ran away angrily. Only when the peak master loses does he realize how precious it is, and after going through untold hardships and being low-key, he finally coaxed his Taoist companion back...
So everything makes sense! The millennium (?) mystery of "Why Xiao Mingxuanyue, the loving Taoist couple broke up" has finally been solved!Simply exciting!
Elder A: "You really can't judge people by their appearances. I didn't expect Peak Lord Xuanyue to be such a person! I used to see him get along with fellow Taoist Xiao Ming, and I couldn't tell at all!"
Elder B: "Maybe the master of Xuanyue Peak is so scumbag that he has no consciousness at all? You must know that the most terrifying thing is not scumbags, but natural scumbags that don't know their own scumbags at all!"
Elder C: "Perhaps it was due to some accident or the extraordinary treasures that caused this result? After all, there are no wonders in the world. The master of Xuanyue peak accidentally ate poisonous weeds, fell in love with fellow Taoist Xiao Ming at first sight, and took it by force, and then suddenly detoxified How can Fellow Daoist Xiao Ming bear such a blow! One person has delicate feelings, and the other is not good at words, so conflicts naturally arise."
Elder D: "I also think this kind of statement is credible. The master of Xuanyue Peak is pure and consistent, and he can't pretend to be deeply affectionate but not in love. There must be some kind of moth behind him! The master is nothing more than a golden core, and it is not impossible for me to go down the mountain alone to practice for the first time, and accidentally learn something."
Elder E: "This monster is so powerful that it has been lurking in the main body of the peak for nearly a hundred years! Thinking about it, it is terrifying! You must be more cautious in your words and deeds when you go out in the future..."
The elders of Jindan lowered their voices, discussing in full swing, but Xiao Ming, who had already cultivated Nascent Soul in the distance, could hear it clearly, and wiped his face expressionlessly.
——I'm so sorry, Xuan Yue, you've been blamed again.But for our future, you should continue to carry this pot...
