Xu Qingyang squatted down, looking expressionlessly at Shangguan Muyun who suddenly aged several decades on the ground.

Except for the slight ups and downs of her chest, Shangguan Muyun was almost no different from a dead person.

There were only layers of wrinkles left on that bright and moving face, and the eyes that were gleaming with autumn waves also turned into a gray and dark color, as if they were covered with a layer of translucent eye shadows.

"Master, she..." Hu Wei, who was behind the crowd, couldn't help shouting out when she saw this scene.

Xu Qingyang stretched out his hand slowly, as if he wanted to grab Shangguan Muyun's neck, but in the next second, his hand was tremblingly grabbed by a skinny hand.

Shangguan Muyun opened his eyes with difficulty, and stared at Xu Qingyang in front of him for a long time, a smile appeared on his wrinkled face like dry bark: "You...you want to kill me .”

Not a question, but an affirmation.

Xu Qingyang tried to withdraw his hand, but was grabbed by the opponent with all his strength, and could only stare at Shangguan Muyun fiercely: "You killed my mother, shouldn't I kill you to avenge her? I have been lurking by your side for so many years just to wait for this moment!"

Unfortunately, he couldn't wait for a chance to have a fair confrontation with Shangguan Muyun after all.

Shangguan Muyun laughed tremblingly as if hearing some ridiculous joke.Her chest was like a bellows leaking air, making a whirring sound.

After laughing for a while, Shangguan Muyun finally stopped: "I know, I knew it when I first saw you."

"You know?" The other person was shocked this time.

Even Ling Xiao looked at the dying Shangguan Muyun in surprise.

As his old opponent, Shangguan Muyun was a person who had died at his hands once, and he couldn't understand this person very well.

According to Shangguan Muyun's character, if he had noticed Xu Qingyang's identity early on, he would definitely not leave any trouble for himself.

Shangguan Muyun slowly took out a silver bracelet from his bosom. There was a gold lock hanging from the chain, and there were two rows of small seal characters behind the lock.

Looking at the surface of the golden lock, it is not like a new item, but more like an old item that has lost its luster after being played with day and night.

Xu Qingyang took the golden lock and saw the words on the back, his eyes were shocked: "My son Qingyang, safe and healthy."

This should be his mother's birthday gift to him when he was 12 years old.

What Shangguan Muyun said was actually true, he really knew his identity from the very beginning.

"Since you already knew, why didn't you kill me?" Xu Qingyang didn't know what emotion to use to face all this at the moment, "Is it interesting to watch me being teased by you?"

Shangguan Muyun twitched the corners of his mouth: "It's not that interesting. You have been immersed in hatred since you were a child, and when teased, you will only fake a perfunctory smile. I don't even want to tease you."

Xu Qingyang almost laughed out of anger, he raised his hand and grabbed Shangguan Muyun's collar, and asked coldly: "Then I have to apologize to you, shall I?"

Ling Xiao sensed something was wrong, patted Xu Qingyang's hand away, stared at Shangguan Muyun and asked, "Is it because you didn't kill his mother that you didn't kill him?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone turned their suspicious eyes to Ling Xiao, and then they all looked at Shangguan Muyun, waiting for his answer.

Shangguan Muyun looked at Ling Xiao with difficulty: "The more I look at you, the more you look like an old friend I once knew."

Only that person can understand him like this.

But Shangguan Muyun squinted his eyes for a long time, and all he saw was that ordinary face, so he finally smiled self-deprecatingly.

Yun Xi had died a long time ago, and now that her body has turned into bones, how could she become the young monk in front of her with such a strong cultivation?

"That's right, Qing Yang, your mother did not die at my hands." Shangguan Muyun took a long breath before slowly saying, "When I woke up, I was already trapped in this woman's body. I have been dead for more than ten years, and my soul has been detained, and I have been waiting for more than ten years in the darkness and chaos."

Everyone fell into silence. In the cool sea breeze, only Shangguan Muyun's intermittent voice reached everyone's ears.

"I remember that when I died, Yun Tanyuan hadn't become emperor yet, he was just a rebellious prince holding the side of the Qing emperor, and Yun Xi was even more ridiculous, she was just a martial artist who only knew how to lead soldiers. And when I was resurrected, Yun Tanyuan has been on the throne for more than 40 years, and Yunxi has also become the first male empress in history..."

Speaking of this, Shangguan Muyun sneered: "At the beginning, I thought that the two of them were just coveting each other's youth and beauty. When they were old, the love that Linggong said to me with the remaining peaches would be shattered. I never thought that the two People really make this seat look up to me."

Ling Xiao raised his chin proudly, his picky eyes were no better than Mr. Dong's, even if he was old and pale, if he threw a half-eaten peach to Tan Yuan, the latter would still eat it with relish.

Shangguan Muyun, this is complete nonsense.

"I really don't know who brought me back to life, but someone has been contacting me in the dark and giving me orders." At this point, Shangguan Muyun's voice became weaker, and Xu Qingyang had to get close to her Listen carefully.

"I've never seen that person's face, and he never showed his true face. He also contacted me recently and told me to get back the water-repelling bead that was given to Tan Yuan at the beginning. If I go to the East China Sea, I will be suppressed at the bottom of the sea. released the Black Demon Flood Dragon."

Speaking of this, Shangguan Muyun's voice was almost inaudible.

Ling Xiao and Xu Qingyang looked at each other, and stared at Shangguan Muyun in unison.

"I also tried to find out the identity of that person, but after searching for a long time, there was no clue. However, what I can confirm now is that he is a fairy who came down from the heaven..."

Before he finished speaking, Shangguan Muyun's eyes lost the last gleam of light.

"Dead." Ling Xiao took a glance, and saw the messenger of the underworld suddenly appearing not far away.

After ordinary human beings die, their souls will go directly to the underworld, but if monks die, their original souls will be stronger than ordinary people. Many people choose to lie in the world.

Apart from him, no one else could see the two messengers in white.

The two receiving envoys noticed that there was a fairy from the upper realm at the scene, and immediately stepped forward to salute Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao nodded slightly: "What's the situation?"

One of the escort messengers with a pale complexion and a handsome appearance said: "Report to Xianjun, Shangguan Muyun died more than 60 years ago, but his living soul has never appeared, and the two of us are responsible for guiding his living soul into the underworld. However, before now, someone has been blocking the two of us. Today, his ghost is weak, so the two of us can sense his existence, and come here specially to connect him to the underworld."

As soon as the words fell, a man's living soul was seen standing up from Shangguan Muyun's body.

The man was handsome, with a white face and beardless, exactly what Shangguan Muyun looked like when he died.

"Take it." Ling Xiao nodded lightly.

The two guides did not wait for Shangguan Muyun's dazed spirit to figure out what had happened, and each of them pressed down on his wrist and dragged him directly into the ground.

Watching this scene, Ling Xiao rubbed his chin lightly.

The original soul that stays in the human world and refuses to go down, once it goes to the underworld, I'm afraid there will be a lot of repulsion.

After all, few people in Hades have a good temper.

"Brother, what should we do with Master's body?" Hu Wei carefully looked at Xu Qingyang's face.

Xu Qingyang was silent for a moment: "I want to take my mother back to Cuiyu Mountain. She likes the azaleas in the back mountain the most. I want to bury her behind our house."

The house there is just a leaky wooden house, but it is the only home for him and his mother.

Hu Wei showed a bit of distress on her face: "Brother, I will accompany you back."

Xu Qingyang wanted to take his mother's remains back for burial, but the others didn't say anything.

After bowing deeply to Ling Xiao, he took his mother's body and turned away with Hu Wei.

Seeing that the catastrophe of the fish had been resolved, the other cultivators also bid farewell to Chu Hanyi in dismay, and went back to their homes.Not getting any merit, everyone left in a huff.

"Senior." Chu Hanyi turned to look at Ling Xiao.

Ever since he knew that this monk Wangchen was the one he had been thinking about for hundreds of years, Chu Hanyi could almost be regarded as inseparable from Lingxiao.

How can this work?

Ling Xiao glanced at a certain Tiandi who was calm on the surface, but the frequency of wagging his tail was getting faster and faster. Knowing that the emperor was getting more and more unhappy, he smiled and asked Chu Hanyi to go to the Marshal Temple to wait for him .

As long as he accepts the squid in the temple, the merits and virtues will naturally be accounted for by Chu Hanyi.

Chu Hanyi followed Ling Xiao's instructions almost verbatim.He immediately carried his sword on his back and went to Marshal Yuqing Temple without saying a word.

It was also at this time that Yunjing Lake finally got the chance to talk to Ling Xiao.

"Senior, you have been away for so long, we are very worried." He squeezed to Ling Xiao's side and looked at Ling Xiao with wide eyes.

Ling Xiao looked at the dark circles under the little boy's eyes, and felt a little helpless: "This is your Majesty, have you not slept all night?"

Before Yun Jinghu could speak, Shen Lingjun, who was standing beside him, took credit for his boss: "Your Majesty was worried about the safety of the two seniors, so he couldn't sleep at night, so he escorted He Qingyan to Anyi for interrogation all night."

"What was the result?" Ling Xiao asked.

Yun Jinghu said first: "I asked Mr. Shen to take the iron certificate of the Dan book and interrogate He Qingyan in the name of the former emperor. Who knew that He Qingyan used to rely on the Queen Mother's relationship to utter wild words, saying that the first emperor Even if the crimes he committed are unspeakable, Mr. Shen can't help him. At that time, I was hiding behind the bead curtain to hear the trial, and I was so angry by this guy."

"Afterwards, I ordered Mr. Shen to stand still for the time being, and deliberately provoke him to tell more crimes. When he was arrogant, he suddenly appeared and revealed his identity. Hahahaha, senior, did you see that guy's face changing from time to time? It's so much fun to go."

Yunjinghu is like a child who is asking for credit in front of his parents, and the more he talks, the more excited he is: "In the end, I ordered my left and right to behead him on the spot, and hang his body on the top of the city for three days to show off to future generations." .”

"Little Mirror, you have grown up." Ling Xiao sighed softly, and squeezed Yunjing Lake's cheeks, "You are more decisive and agile in handling things."

"Yes, Father, I..." Yun Jinghu suddenly covered his mouth with both hands, and looked at Ling Xiao in panic.

The next second, he nervously stepped forward and grabbed Ling Xiao's wrist, incoherently ordering everyone to back down.

Soon the two of them were left alone on the empty beach.

"Tell me, when did you recognize me?" Ling Xiao simply stopped pretending, and simply sat down on the rock next to him, taking the time to look at his flustered little boy.

The little boy bowed his head silently: "From the very beginning."
