When he entered the door, he saw Xu Youming sitting cross-legged on the couch, Le Wuyan followed, bent over and leaned in front of him with a grumpy face.

"Xianzun has such a big temper."

There was a faint smile in his dark glazed eyes, Xu Youming remained expressionless, his eyes remained motionless, staring at him for a moment, then closed his eyes.

Le Wuyan was taken aback for a moment, but still ignored him?

"What are you angry about?" Le Wuyan sighed helplessly, turned around and sat on the couch beside her.

After a while, he turned sideways again, drawing out his voice: "Yaoyao..."

Xu Youming still didn't respond.

"Ignore me, I'm leaving."

Le Wuyan got up and made a gesture to leave, but before he stepped out, Xu Youming grabbed his arm and dragged him back, fell into his arms, and met Xu Youming's frowning eyes.

"Why? Didn't you ignore me?" Le Wuyan was annoyed.

Xu Youming looked at him without making a sound.

Le Wuyan: "Why are you so angry?"

Xu Youming: "You only look at people's faces?"

"Otherwise?" Le Wuyan asked strangely, "Didn't you ask knowingly?"

When the words came out, it seemed that he was blessed in an instant, and he suddenly understood why Xu Youming was angry, and he was overjoyed, and couldn't stop laughing: "You are really..."

Xu Youming's face became more tense, and Le Wuyan raised his hand and pinched it hard: "I chose you because of your face, so I'm angry? Do you think I will abandon you without this face?"

Le Wuyan laughed and said: "I don't know how to tell stories about immortals and spirit birds. I'm just so superficial. If you are as disfigured as Qi Feng..."

Xu Youming grabbed his hand: "How about the disfigured?"

Le Wuyan: "You can't break your face."

"Okay, don't be awkward, I said that even though it's because of your face, I only have my eyes on you. I don't think differently about Qi Feng's face with yours. Are you angry with me?"

Just because of his casual words in the car just now, this man got angry, his mind is smaller than the eye of a needle, right?

Xu Youming remained silent, Le Wuyan: "I'm not right?"

For a moment, Xu Youming lowered his head and touched the flame pattern on his forehead with his lips. Le Wuyan closed his eyes and reminded him: "Next time, don't lose your temper indiscriminately, let alone get angry with me casually."

Xu Youming lowered his voice: "Yes."

Le Wuyan pulled him down, couldn't bear Xu Youming's constant rubbing of his sensitive forehead, and gnawed on his lips.

There was a knock on the door outside, and the two of them didn't intend to answer. The other party persisted. The knock on the door was not heavy, but it continued.

In the end, Le Wuyan panted and pushed Xu Youming, sat up from his disheveled clothes, and asked impatiently, "Who?"

"Immortal Chief, our wife would like to invite the two Immortal Chiefs to go and have a talk, and also ask the two Immortal Chiefs to give Madam a face."

It was a strange middle-aged woman's voice, and Le Wuyan could tell that it was not someone close to Madam Hou, so Xu Youming said, "Madam."

Le Wuyan also immediately thought of it: "She actually took the initiative to find us?"

Xu Youming: "Go and have a look."

Le Wuyan felt a little regretful and stood up.

After tidying up his appearance and going out, there was indeed a new face outside the door. The woman said to him with a gentle attitude: "Thank you, you two elders."

Le Wuyan nodded: "Lead the way."

The place the other party took them to was indeed in the bamboo forest.

The forest is deep and deep, very clean, the Buddhist hall is deep in the bamboo forest, surrounded by streams outside, the yard is not big, but neat and elegant, not as extravagant as other places in this Marquis Mansion.

Walking into the Buddhist hall, to their surprise, no gods and Buddhas were enshrined, only an old lady, dressed in a plain dress, with white hair in a simple bun, decorated with green jade hairpins, was waiting for her Flowers and plants under the window.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the other party turned to look at them, with a look in their eyes, but not abrupt.

Le Wuyan was also looking at the other party. The old lady looked gentle and full of energy. There were marks on the face carved by years of wind and frost, but she didn't look old, and she could still see the appearance of her youth.

Le Wuyan looked at her, and the sweet and innocent little girl in memory gradually floated up, overlapping with the old lady in front of her.

He sighed for a while.

"Old man Qi Su, I pay my respects to the two immortal elders."

The other party stepped forward to salute, Le Wuyan immediately said: "Madam please get up."

This old lady, Su Wanyue, who is nearly sixty years old, is exactly Qi Sifan's wife who was only one step away from paying homage to her.

"I don't know what's the reason why Madam asked us to come here?" Le Wuyan asked proactively.

Su Wanyue invited the two of them to a seat, and asked someone to come up for refreshments, and then asked: "You two elders, are you from the east of the Wangchuan Sea?"

Le Wuyan was a little surprised, but she also knew?

Xu Youming opened his mouth: "How much do you know about the things on the east side of Wangchuanhai?"

"I didn't know before," Su Wanyue's eyes showed a bit of sadness, and she quickly covered it up, "After my husband-in-law was taken away by the so-called immortals on the day of our worship, I am not reconciled, and I don't believe that the cousin they said is following the immortals. After going to the Immortal Realm, I sent people from various places to inquire about it. Over the years, I have gradually met some people who have attained the Tao. I heard someone mention the matter on the east side of the Wangchuan Sea, and only then did I know that on the other side of the Wangchuan Sea, there is another world. , but after all, what can be inquired is only a few words, and no one will know more."

"I heard about the first day the two elders came to the mansion. To be honest, I have sent people to pay attention to the two. On the night of the late emperor's death, there seemed to be some differences in the small courtyard where the two lived. After the usual movement, the national teacher couldn't get out of the seclusion, I guess he knew the skills of the two immortal elders, came to trouble you, and was defeated by your hands."

"Why do you think so?" Le Wuyan asked curiously, "You also think that the national teacher is not a good person?"

Su Wanyue said: "Those Taoists I know are far inferior to that national teacher. The national teacher is the only person I have ever seen who may come from the east of the Wangchuan Sea, so I have been sending people to pay attention to him all these years. Although I can't find out much about him, I can vaguely feel that he is not a good person, even though I really want to know about the things in the east of Wangchuanhai, I never planned to ask him."

As she spoke, she raised her eyes hoping to look at Le Wuyan and the two: "Could the Immortal Elder clear up my doubts?"

Le Wuyan thought to herself that Qi Sifan's cousin is really forbearing and strong, she is a strange woman, and she was more polite on the face, and finally said: "We are indeed from the east of Wangchuan Sea."

Hearing this, Su Wanyue tightly grasped the handkerchief in her hand, and asked them calmly: "You must have heard about my cousin, according to the two elders, was he taken away by the immortals as rumored? "

Le Wuyan asked her back: "Why do you think otherwise?"

Su Wanyue said: "When the so-called immortal descended from the sky, I could feel his hostility toward me, even killing intent. An immortal should not be like that."

"He's really not a fairy," Le Wuyan said disdainfully, "He's just an arrogant person, not a good thing."

"We know your cousin." Seeing Su Wanyue's eyes turn red the moment she heard this sentence, Le Wuyan said carefully, "He was taken to the east of Wangchuan Sea, and he has been taken away for 40 years. His people are trapped by his side, but don't worry, he hasn't suffered any physical torture, he just wants to come back all the time, and has never forgotten you."

There were tears in Su Wanyue's eyes: "...Really?"

"I didn't lie to you," Le Wuyan hesitated, and said, "He told me that when he was a child, he lost his way at the Lantern Festival with you and was sent back to the mansion by kind people passing by. He remembers everything in between."

Hearing what Le Wuyan said, Su Wanyue had no doubts anymore, no one in the current Qi family knew about this trivial matter, but this little fairy elder in front of her could say it accurately.

"Why was he taken away?"

Xu Youming said first: "His physical talent is suitable for cultivation, and the person who took him away wanted him to inherit the Tao, so that's why."

Le Wuyan didn't say anything when he got to his lips, this excuse is indeed easier to accept, there is no need for people to know those nasty things right now, which will only add to the trouble.

Although Su Wanyue vaguely felt something was wrong, they believed what they said, and asked, "When will you two elders go back there?"

"In another year or two," Le Wuyan said, "some things happened over there, we can't go back now, but don't worry, since we came to see you, we will help you, and we will definitely keep your cousin intact in the future Send it back, and Madam please take care of yourself and wait for your cousin to come back to reunite with peace of mind."

Su Wanyue suppressed her excitement, wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, got up and wanted to thank them with a big gift, but was stopped by Le Wuyan: "Madam, you don't have to."

He said: "However, we have one thing, and I would like to ask Madam, besides the national teacher, have you found any of these nobles in Beijing who have cultivated the Tao, or experienced a major change in temperament, and behaved abnormally?" of?"

Su Wanyue said: "Does Xiao Xianchang feel that there is something wrong?"

"There is indeed something wrong. The behavior of the new emperor who has just ascended the throne is a bit weird. We suspect that his mind has been manipulated by someone. The cultivation level of the person behind him must be no lower than that of the national teacher." Le Wuyan explained.

Su Wanyue thought for a moment, then asked them: "The two elders must have checked all the people who can be checked, but they didn't find who it was?"

Le Wuyan affirmed: "No."

"Where's the Queen Mother?" Su Wanyue asked.

Le Wuyan was taken aback when he heard the words: "The Queen Mother?"

The queen mother she was talking about was the previous queen, a young lady from the Marquis of Changxing.

Xu Youming said: "I have also seen the Queen Mother, there is no problem."

Su Wanyue explained: "Since the head fairy said that the new emperor's mind has been manipulated, I think those close to him must be able to do this. The queen mother came out of the Marquis of Changxing. I do know her a little bit. When she was in the mansion, her disposition was considered gentle and quiet. Within a few years after she married into the palace, rumors spread about her domineering affairs. I went to celebrate her birthday, and I also went, and I saw that she really looked like a different person, her face was still the same, but her demeanor was completely different from before. It gave me a very strange and uncomfortable feeling. It was many years ago Since then, I have claimed to be sick, and have never entered the palace again."

Le Wuyan asked Xu Youming via voice transmission: "Could it be that the queen mother was taken away by the evil spirit Xiu?"

"I saw it that day, she has no cultivation level," Xu Youming frowned and said, "Evil cultivators will not take away from a person with no cultivation level."

Le Wuyan: "...what if? After all, it's the empress, the empress dowager. It's not bad to take away her house to be a domineering blessing. It's not impossible to seize her house again in the future, and you are sure that what you see is the queen mother herself Or maybe she guessed that we would investigate her, and specially found someone to pretend to be the queen mother to fool you, so she hid herself?"

Xu Youming: "Then we can only invite this lady into the palace to meet someone."

Le Wuyan immediately mentioned it to Su Wanyue, Su Wanyue said: "Okay, I used to have a bit of sister-in-law friendship with the Queen Mother, if I handed the card to enter the palace, she shouldn't refuse after so many years."

After that, they didn't say any more, Le Wuyan and the two got up and said goodbye.

Before leaving, Xu Youming took out a bottle of elixir and handed it to Su Wanyue: "This medicine has the effect of prolonging life, Madam has old diseases in her body, taking this medicine will keep her safe."

Su Wanyue didn't refuse, took the pill and thanked them again.

There is hope for her cousin to come back, so she will naturally not give up, she really has to take care of herself.

Xu Youming said: "I also ask Madam to give me a token, and I will give it to Mr. Qi when we are better."

Su Wanyue immediately took off the green jade hairpin in her bun, and handed it to them: "Thank you, you two elders."

Xu Youming nodded and accepted the things.

Walking out of the Buddhist hall, Le Wuyan sighed: "You are still careful, remember to give her medicine to cure her old illness, and remember to ask her for a token for Qi Sifan, so that Qi Sifan can trust us."

Xu Youming said calmly: "You've never been used to being informal, so naturally you don't think about these things."

"Yeah, it's not as empathetic as the Immortal Venerable." Le Wuyan laughed.

Xu Youming glanced at him, said nothing, and grabbed his wrist: "Go back."

Supreme Immortal League.

In the middle of the night, Qin Ziyu rolled over and sat up, unable to fall asleep or calm down to settle down, only full of irritability.

After a moment of daze, he got up and got off the couch, went to the door and pushed it out. There was no one in the courtyard, and the courtyard wall was not high. Looking around, the night tide was heavy, and there was only boundless darkness.

Qin Ziyu's thoughts moved, knowing that it was impossible, but he wanted to give it a try, and desperately wanted to leave here.

Leaping up, he just crossed the wall, was blocked by an invisible barrier, and fell to the ground in embarrassment.

When he raised his head again, Xie Shigu fell in silently, right in front of him, with a tall figure covering him, looking down at him.

"Where are you going?" the person in front of him asked in a deep voice.

This person came here in a hurry, with bloody smell on his body, he must have gone outside before returning, and even killed someone.

Qin Ziyu didn't want to talk to him, propped himself up, got up and planned to go back to the house.

When he turned around, Xie Shigu grabbed his arm and pulled him over: "I asked where you were going just now?"

Facing Xie Shigu's extraordinarily cold eyes staring at him, Qin Ziyu said impatiently: "I want to go, but you set up an enchantment, I can't go, give up, can I?"

"You want to go?" Xie Shigu's voice became darker, "Where are you going? When did I tell you that you can go?"

Qin Ziyu: "I have nothing to say to you, let go, I'm going in."

Xie Shigu tightened his fingers and tightened his strength even more.

Qin Ziyu was in pain from his clutching, and he held back and said nothing, Xie Shigu bent down and hugged him up.

Xie Shigu forced him to throw him on the couch again, Qin Ziyu struggled desperately to resist, Xie Shigu held him down, pressed him down with a cold face, imprisoned him with spiritual power, and kissed him.

Qin Ziyu couldn't avoid it, his reddened eyes stared at the person who was suppressing him, and there was no tenderness in the forced kiss. Xie Shigu quickly tasted the bloody smell spreading from his mouth, and gasped for breath. squinted.

When his eyes intersected with Qin Ziyu's, he stopped suddenly.

The eyes in front of him gradually turned into another person's, full of despair and sadness, and the voice that kept repeating in his head was Shi Wei's words "You betrayed me, never see you again".

Repeatedly over and over again, eroding his consciousness like a nightmare.

The evil thoughts in my heart broke out of the cage.

The hatred in Qin Ziyu's eyes gradually turned into astonishment. He saw that the color of Xie Shigu's eyes was constantly changing. They were as black as ink, sinking to the bottom, and then scarlet blood rose up, spreading quickly in his eyes, as if he was no longer eyes of a normal person.

Before he could figure out the reason, Xie Shigu had already grabbed his neck with one hand.

Qin Ziyu was soon out of breath, struggled violently, opened his mouth but couldn't make a sound, tears were forced out of the corners of his eyes, he could only keep his red eyes wide open, looking helplessly at the person who seemed to have completely lost his mind.

Xie Shigu didn't know what he was doing. After Shi Wei's voice, another voice kept urging him: "Let him disappear, let him disappear, he is not Shi Wei, let him disappear..."

It was his own voice, hoarse and malicious, his demon.

Qin Ziyu's aura gradually weakened, and when his eyelashes were about to droop, Xie Shigu suddenly let go of his hand, as if waking up from a dream, and retreated abruptly.

His eyes returned to normal, he looked at his trembling hand in disbelief, and then at Qin Ziyu who was dying on the couch.

What was he just... doing?

After being stunned for a while, Xie Shigu stretched out his hand and sent Qin Ziyu's spiritual power.

Qin Ziyu gradually recovered, closed his eyes from exhaustion, and couldn't speak a word.

After a long time, he noticed that the person said "sorry" in his ear, got up and left, and the footsteps quickly disappeared.
