live for yourself

Platycodon grandiflora and the others walked through the dense forest, wisps of sunlight shone through the layers of leaves, refracting bits and pieces of brilliance on the fallen leaves.

After passing through a hidden cave, it suddenly became clear to them that a vast lake appeared in front of them. A few waterfowls were playing leisurely on the lake. A row of willows, at the end of the willows, a few simple small houses are sparsely arranged.

"Master Kikyo, my master lives in the house over there." Xingchen pointed to the thatched hut not far away, and happily said to Kikyo, "At this time, Master should have woken up, let's go directly."

"En." Kikyo nodded.

"Master, Master, I'm back!" Xing Chen shouted fiercely, "Master, look who I brought here!"

"En? Why is Xing Chen so excited?" A male voice sounded, and then a tall red figure came out of the room.Seeing Kikyo, he couldn't help being a little surprised, "I don't know who it is, it turned out to be a witch, why, Xingchen, you actually abducted a witch."

"Senior brother, don't talk nonsense. Master Kikyo saved me, otherwise I would have been eaten by a big tiger long ago!" Xing Chen threw himself at the man in red and twisted into a ball with him.

"Tiger? Could it be the one who just became a demon?" The man in red heard this, glanced at the bow and arrow on Kikyo's back, and looked at Kikyo differently. Very patient."

"Chi Lian, you've missed your mark." At this moment, another man in a blue gown with a handsome face walked out of the room, and said to the man in red with a smile, "She is not an ordinary witch."

"Master, why did you say that?"

"It's just that I noticed a trace of unusual aura." The man in the green shirt nodded to Kikyo, "Welcome to the priestess who returned from the Disaster of the Dead in the distance. My name is Qingxuan, and standing next to me is me. Great apprentice—Chi Lian."

Xingchen didn't understand, so he quickly asked Qingxuan: "Master, where is the Ruins of the Dead? Why have I never heard of it?"

"How much do you know?" There was a flash of excitement in Chi Lian's eyes, he stroked Xing Chen's hair, with a hint of pampering, "Let's go, I'll take you to the lake to fish, as for that witch..." Chi Lian He glanced at Kikyo with some confusion, "I guess Master has something to tell her, so let's not bother them."

"But..." Xing Chen wanted to say something, but Chi Lian directly took him away.

Only Bellflower and Qingxuan are left in front of the house, oh, plus Cong Yunya.

"Jiaojie." Kikyo said his name to Qingxuan. Although he didn't know the details of this person, he couldn't see any malice in his eyes.Moreover, from this person, Kikyo even felt an illusion of being unattainable. This man called Qingxuan is not simple.

Qingxuan looked at the expressionless Kikyo, and smiled faintly, "Miss Kikyo, you don't know me, but I know you. You are the priestess who guards the jade of the four souls, and died of hatred because of Naraku's tricks. I really didn't expect that I would meet you one day."

"Are you...?" Kikyo didn't expect this person to know him at all.

Qingxuan slowly approached Kikyo, looked at Kikyo, with a slight smile in his eyes, "I am not in the world, so I don't care about the world. Now I just want to be here and live a peaceful life without being disturbed. But I What is more curious is that you are clearly dead, but your body still seems to be alive..."

"I took the blue star grass and purple star grass in the seven star grass." Bellflower didn't hide anything.

"It turns out that's the case. You can be called a great opportunity. From ancient times to the present, countless people have been looking for this kind of thing, but unfortunately, they have never even seen the shadow of the Seven Star Grass in their entire lives." Qing A look of admiration appeared on Xuan's face.

"It's just..." Qingxuan hesitated to speak.

"Master Qingxuan might as well just say it straight."

"Do you know that this Seven Star Grass is a divine object, so the person who swallows it will have the breath of a god on his body, and you are no longer a human being."

"I know, from the moment I took the purple star grass, I clearly understood that my body is different from ordinary people, and I don't know why the breath has changed, but I can still mobilize the dead soul worms. ..." Kikyo nodded, looked at Qingxuan and said, paused, and continued, "In addition, what I want to say is that I, as a human being, ceased to exist 53 years ago."

Qingxuan was very satisfied with Kikyo's answer, "It's just this kind of tolerance and openness that ordinary people don't have. It's just Kikyo, I want to know why you want to return to the world even if you do this."

"I think... if I live for myself and no longer for others, then I can change my destiny as a witch." Kikyo lowered her head and said softly.

Qingxuan shook his head, "How powerful is the tide of fate, can it be reversed by manpower?"

"But if you haven't worked hard, how will you know if the final outcome will be different?"

"Then how do you know that the path you have chosen is the right one? Maybe, you are not taking the path of redemption, but a path of no return to destruction?" Qingxuan looked at Kikyo's firm eyes, and felt a little shaken .

"If this path is wrong, then I will find the right path... One day I will find the right path..."

"..." Qingxuan was silent for a long time, "Maybe you are right, I am stuck in the world."

Qingxuan raised his head and looked at the traces of flying birds in the distance. He didn't know whether to tell Kikyo or himself, "I don't know how long I have lived. Time can kill everything, even with the original passion. It also disappeared. I actually forgot what my original self looked like..."

"Jikyo, I want to thank you, thank you for reminding me of who I used to be. Moreover, you are my benefactor for saving Xingchen. The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by the spring. Although you look like ordinary people now, but Anyone with a slightly higher cultivation base or a demon can feel the difference in you."

Qingxuan took out a necklace from the house, "This name is Soul Locking, which I got in the depths of the Shura Sea. One of its functions is to lock your soul. Unstable, could it be that you are just a remnant soul? If this is the case, this soul lock can help you. It can cover up the breath of God on your body so that others cannot feel it. This soul lock has no advantages in our opinion. But for you, it is extremely useful."

"Thank you, Lord Qingxuan." Kikyo thanked him and took over the soul lock.It didn't take long to leave here.

Looking at the departing Kikyo, Qingxuan couldn't help but sigh, "I've never seen such a soul, who obviously bears a lot of pain, but can still move forward like this!"
