Those Years When the Demon King Undercovered the Immortal Gate

In the room, Song Changqing scratched his head in distress, looked at Luo Zichen and explained, "Just before you disappeared, news broke out that Shen Xun was Sima Xun. Let Qingniao take him away from Changyao to find you first, and leave him a letter."

"There is a magic talisman on this letter, and it can only be opened after three days when the magic talisman burns out." At this point, Song Changqing recalled Sima Xun's expression and tone before continuing: "I reckon this letter, he probably hasn't read it yet. Time to see."

Luo Zichen rubbed his fingers against the edge of the bed and asked, "What did you write?"

"It's nothing else, but in the letter I mentioned a sentence similar to your time is not long. The words are cryptic. If he doesn't know that you have a medical problem, he won't be able to see it for a while, but he will look at it now and estimate it. ..."

Luo Zichen: "..."

He asked Song Changqing to drive people away, because he knew that his time was numbered and he was afraid that Sima Xun would be sad when he found out.

If it was before, he would have thought that Sima Xun would be happy when he said no, seeing that his time was numbered. After all, there were so many misunderstandings and barriers between them.

It is very normal for Xiao Xun to hate him, and Xiao Xun did intend to kill him before.

But right now...

Thinking of this, Luo Zichen couldn't help but fell silent.

What is Xiao Xun thinking about him, if he still can't see it today, then he is really a bit of a jerk.

When he was in a daze in the cave before, the other party called his name in a low voice in his ear, and when he looked at him with blurred eyes but full of suppressed emotions, he had a faint feeling.

Not to mention that Sima Xun did not hesitate to block Gao Zhuo's blow when he was in the Chongming Palace on Changyao Mountain yesterday.

In fact, at that time, seeing Sima Xun, who was only in the Alchemy Realm, standing in front of him, Luo Zichen felt that he had really experienced the ups and downs of living and dying, and dying and living again.

However, he could also see that although Sima Xun liked him, Sima Xun's inner feelings were obviously very complicated.

He doesn't want the other party to suffer, especially because he likes him.

Song Changqing saw that Luo Zichen's face was heavy and he didn't know what he was thinking, and continued: "Actually, I think he has not turned his head for a while. Even if there is no letter, he will have to come again sooner or later."

"If the person really comes back when the time comes, you—"

Song Changqing paused here.

After a while, he continued: "We have been senior brothers for so many years, you can still tell what you are thinking. Even if there is really no way to solve the matter of Tianyanjue, even if it is really time The days are running out, and you don't want to see him again?"

Luo Zichen fell silent, he closed his eyes and thought for a while, the expression on his face seemed to relax a little.

After a while, he said: "He probably won't come back. If he does come back, I'll go see him, but—"

Luo Zichen's eyebrows moved slightly, and when he said this, he inexplicably recalled what happened during the battle between immortals and demons.

After the battle between immortals and demons that year, he chose to go back to Changyao for seclusion and did not look for anyone, because he discovered the flaws of Tianyanjue after he entered the soul.

He was actually a little arrogant at that time, thinking that if he wanted to promote the development of the relationship with Sima Xun, he would face countless pressures and twists and turns from the outside world. It is difficult to move forward in the world of cultivating immortals.

At that time, there was much more estrangement and hatred between Zhongxianmen and Jiuyou Palace than what can be seen today.

Even in Changyao, countless disciples died at the hands of Jiuyou Palace. The relatives, friends, teachers and disciples of these disciples all gritted their teeth at Jiuyou Palace, wishing they could tear their skins apart.

These hatreds, even if they are left to this day... Even if 3000 years have passed, almost all the people who witnessed the events of that year have gone, and the immortals still hate the demons and Jiuyou Palace deeply.

Of course he believed that his Xiao Xun was not some treacherous and evil person.

But the hatred between the demons and the immortal gate is an extremely difficult problem left over from history.

Although Luo Zichen could convince all the immortal sects at that time, it was simply too difficult to solve this problem.

At that time, he was arrogant and naive, and he really hoped that he could solve this difficult problem by himself.

At that time, he happened to be just one step away from the Divine Soul Realm, so he thought that things would be much easier when he reached the Divine Soul Realm.

It's a pity that God didn't give him this chance. When he entered the Soul Realm, the difficulties he faced became even more serious.

——As long as he uses his spiritual power, the spiritual power will be uncontrollably chaotic in his physical energy, and then dissipate.

At this time, it is even more impossible for him to go to Jiuyou Palace, which is already evacuating to the extreme north, to find someone.Not to mention dealing with the world of cultivating immortals, but also dealing with Sima Xun who misunderstood him at the time and regarded him as the enemy of life and death, I am afraid it would be difficult.Naturally, we have to wait until the problem of Tianyan Jue is resolved before making any plans.

Gradually later, he also discovered how naive he was when he wanted to solve that problem. Even if he reached the Soul Realm, it was impossible to eliminate the hatred between Jiuyou Palace and the various immortal sects.

So, he only wanted to quickly solve the problem of Tian Yanjue.

He thought about finding someone to explain after Tian Yanjue's problem was solved, and there was still time.

Unexpectedly, this delay has dragged on for 3000 years until today.

As for the sneak attack on Jiuyou Palace by the immortal sects back then, it is naturally impossible for him to do it.

Over the years, he has also investigated this matter.

What happened back then was the head of the Hui Xing Sect at that time, the current elder of the Hui Xing Sect, who organized the people of the Xian Sect to launch a surprise attack on the Jiuyou Palace after receiving the secret letter of the whistleblower.

By the time Luo Zichen came to his senses, the battle had already been bloody, and it was a foregone conclusion.

As for the secret letter, in addition to a letter informing all the immortal sects of the demon clan's intent to launch a surprise attack on Jiuyou Palace, there is also a transfer order that can mobilize the immortal sects.

Only he had this thing at the time.

In fact, Luo Zichen has been unable to figure this out all these years.

He has always endured the outside world putting this matter on him.Although all the immortal sects praised this matter, only he himself knew that he didn't want to attribute this inexplicable "credit" to him at all.

This incident made the original hatred between Jiuyou Palace and the various immortal sects even heavier.

But yesterday he understood it all at once.

Apart from him, there was actually another person who had the transfer order at the time, and this coincidence was Gao Zhuo, the head of the Shanhai Palace who was second only to him in cultivation at that time.

After the battle between Sima Xun and Gao Zhuo, he always thought that Gao Zhuo was dead, so he didn't think about it.

Now that I think about it, Gao Zhuo has been holding back all this time, and it's not surprising that they did this while knowing that Gao Zhuo was in the dark, while he had an appointment with Sima Xun.

But today, although he wanted to understand, he didn't want Sima Xun to know about it at all.

He even felt that if Sima wanted to hate him because of this matter, it would be a good thing to contain this unclear emotion.

If Sima Xun really came back to look for him, he...

Luo Zichen stared blankly at Song Changqing, and continued, "However, what I want to tell him at that time is what I asked you to tell him today."

It's just hurting someone again.

Song Changqing's face froze.

Then he wiped his face with his hand, stared at Luo Zichen with some emotion and continued: "You are too stubborn. In fact, I have always regretted it all these years—"

Having said that, Song Changqing stopped.

He glanced back at the blue bird who was still in the room, and waved his hand to let him go down first.

Blue Bird lowered her eyes and obediently left the room.

After Qingniao closed the door again, Song Changqing continued to talk to Luo Zichen: "I regret these years, why did I have to stubbornly confront the old guy back then."

Luo Zichen knew that the old guy Song Changqing was talking about here was the head of Chang Yao back then, that is, their master.

"He was an upright person all his life, but he happened to be in my hands—" Song Changqing's voice choked up when he said this.

If Luo Zichen could see it right now, he would have noticed that Song Changqing, who had always been indifferent, had red eyes and was closing his eyes to calm down.

After a long time, he continued:

"If I hadn't been so stubborn, I wouldn't have been at All Souls Lake for 3000 years."

"Counting the time he left, when I left, he was actually running out of time."

"I regret it very much. If I was not so stubborn at that time, if I just stayed by his side silently and said nothing, it would be good to see him for one more day later."

Having said that, Song Changqing fell silent again.He pressed his hand to his forehead, hiding the tears that were about to fall along the corners of his eyes.

The air in the room was a little frozen.

It seems like a long time, and it seems that it is just a moment.Only then did Song Changqing smirk again, and continued:

"Luo Zichen, in fact, when I helped you drive away Sima Xun today, I felt that he might be the second me in the future."

"He won't blame you at that time, but he will regret it, as I regret it at this moment, regretting why I was so stupid at the time!"

After finishing speaking, Song Changqing told Luo Zichen to practice hard and stabilize the situation, and left the room.

A month later.

Wanling Lake, Green Bamboo Garden.

Song Changqing sent Luo Zichen to the door.

"Really decided to leave?" Song Changqing asked.

Luo Zichen's calm face squeezed out a little smile very rarely, and said a few more words: "Didn't you persuade me to go out for a walk these days, brother?"

"I'm that—" Song Changqing's tone froze, and he didn't continue, he just said: "Okay, you can go. Don't worry, I will watch Changyao Mountain, as long as no one fights with me, there will be no problem. "

Before, he managed to persuade Luo Zichen to soften his attitude a lot, but after a month passed, that little bastard Sima Xun unexpectedly didn't come to find someone. It was a waste of his feelings.Although Luo Zichen looked calm on the surface, he felt a little sore in his heart when he looked at this person, and felt that all the love and devotion with his heart and lungs were in vain.

So two days ago, I casually asked him to go out to relax, but I didn't expect this person to agree immediately.

"Could it be that you have planned to..." Song Changqing said and paused for a while before saying again, "Planned to leave my place a long time ago? Do you think I'm bored here?"

"No." Luo Zichen replied.

"You... do you want to find—" Song Changqing hesitated.

"No." Luo Zichen knew what Song Changqing was going to say as soon as he heard it.

"Forget it, if you want to go, go quickly."

-

The land of the extreme north, Jiuyou Palace.

The palace of Jiuyou Palace is located in a white snow-capped mountain.

The extreme north has been covered with snow for thousands of years, and it can be said that there is almost no grass growing.

However, the palace of Jiuyou Palace is not as cold as the outside. As long as you pass through a few stone gates, there will be a specially set up formation for heating. There are spirit stones embedded in the eyes of the formation. If it is completely exhausted, the palace will be as warm as spring all year round.

Rong Yi walked back from outside Jiuyou Palace wrapped in a bitingly cold wind and snow.

Hua Yun happened to be not far from the gate of Jiuyou Palace, seeing this, she hurried over and quickly took off the purple-black cloak outside for him.

As for Hua Xin, he came back a few days ago, but when he came back, he happened to meet Rong Yi in a very bad mood, and now he is still locked in the dungeon of Jiuyou Palace.

"Where's your majesty?" Rong Yi asked.

This month Rong Yi would ask this every time he came back from outside, Hua Yun had already prepared: "In the quiet room."

"What are you doing, do you know?" Rong Yi asked.

Huayun lowered her eyes.

Rong Yi knew it at a glance.

Sima Xun must have gone to the quiet room to drink again.

Saying this would make him unhappy, so Hua Yun dared not say it.

Without saying anything more, Rong Yi quickly walked towards Sima Xun's exclusive quiet room in Jiuyou Palace.

Standing outside the quiet room, he reached out and touched the things in his arms, his face seemed to have made up his mind.

Then he stretched out his hand and knocked solemnly on the door of the quiet room.

"Who?" Came out with a somewhat confused voice.

"Master Mojun, he is a subordinate." Rong Yi replied.

After that, there was no movement in the quiet room for a long time.

Rong Yi waited for about half a quarter before knocking on the door of the quiet room again, this time Sima Xun didn't give him any response.

After a moment of silence, Rong Yi stretched out his hand and gently pushed open the door of the quiet room, and sure enough, he saw Sima Xun sitting on the ground leaning against the wall in the quiet room, with jars of empty Thousand Day Drunken all around him.

As if he heard the sound of him coming in, Sima Xun raised his head and glanced at him lazily, and said in a bad tone: "What are you doing here? Did you say you can come in? Get out!"

Rong Yi opened his mouth, his expression was not very good, but he still said after a while: "Your Majesty, I'm sorry. But I came in to say, I promise you about that matter."

Hearing this, Sima Xun's face finally regained a trace of clarity.

In fact, it was not a big deal, but after he and Rong Yi returned to Jiuyou Palace, he asked Rong Yi to succeed him as the Demon Lord of Jiuyou Palace, but this kid never agreed.

"Okay." Sima Xun nodded, and said again: "Get ready."

"Yes."

"You, subordinate..." Rong Yi touched the thing in his arms at the moment, hesitantly said.

"Okay, get out." Sima Xun stood up unsteadily from the ground, and waved his hand towards Rong Yi.

Rong Yi hesitated for a moment, and finally quietly exited the door without saying anything.

The quiet room became quiet again, but this time Sima Xun woke up from his drunken dream.

He rubbed the aching brows, and suddenly found something in his hand.

With the faint light in the quiet room, it can be seen that this is a piece of Zhilanpei made of white jade.Gently rubbing with your hands, you can also feel a small word "dust" engraved on the corner of Zhilanpei.

Sima Xun frowned and thought.

When did he dig this thing out?Where did it come from again?

Immediately, some displeasure appeared on his face, obviously he had already thrown the things out of sight, yet he came out again today.

But it's normal to come out.

When he threw this thing away for the first time, he put it in the storage room of Jiuyou Palace.

The miscellaneous room for storing things would not go in once every 100 years, but after he threw things in, he would inexplicably want to go in there every now and then, which caused the disciples of Jiuyou Palace to frequently speculate whether he was here. what to do.

After thinking about it for a while, he took the thing out of the storage.After taking it out, he looked troubled again, so he deliberately threw it to a disciple of Jiuyou Palace, and let the disciple dispose of it as he pleased.

As a result, taking advantage of the night, he went to the disciple's residence and stole the things back secretly.Later, the disciple came to confess to him, saying that he accidentally lost what he gave him, and asked him to punish him.

Later, later, he threw the things into the vast snow mountain outside Jiuyou Palace. The extreme north is snowed all year round, but in one night, the snow mountain outside Jiuyou Palace changed its appearance, and even the direction could not be distinguished. .Standing on the top of the snow peak, he felt as if his whole body was buried in the ice and snow, as if he was bone-chilling.

Then he spent seven days and seven nights turning things out from under the thick snow.

So far he has learned to be good, and when he is unhappy, he will throw it into the corner of the quiet room, and then he will turn it out after a while, and then throw it after turning it out.

It must have been in the quiet room since then.

It's normal now, isn't it?

Sima Xun stared at the jade pendant, feeling very irritable and wanted to get angry with it, but he was afraid that it would be broken by accident.

Holding the jade pendant, he thought to himself that it was Luo Zichen who provoked him back then, why did he make him sad for so many years...

After a while, he thought of what Luo Zichen asked Song Changqing to tell him a month ago.

He couldn't help telling himself that what he said was absolutely true, and Luo Zichen had already made up his mind, so what else could he say...

But after a while, he still inexplicably remembered that Luo Zichen once said that he liked him when he was Chen Luo.Luo Zichen actively raped him in the cave. At that time, he was in a daze, but Luo Zichen was awake.Luo Zichen made an enemy of all the immortal sects for him.

Counting one by one, my heart feels sweet and sour again and again.

When Luo Zichen said he liked him, did he mean it to him?When Luo Zichen rolled with him on the Qingshi bed in the cave, was he with him in his heart?

Luo Zichen did firmly apologize to Hang Gu who had called for his public trial in front of Changyao Chongming Hall.

But Luo Zichen also said a month ago that all of these were all the affection he had back then.

He and Luo Zichen were also considered friends back then. Luo Zichen plotted against him back then without any hesitation. At this moment, he felt guilty and harmless to save his life a month ago. There is no threat to Xianmen.

but……

Did Luo Zichen tell him about his liking?What did Luo Zichen think of him?What happened to Luo Zichen's body?

Did these things just pass away in such an obscure way?

Even unexplainably rolled with him...

Of course, they were all men, and even though he was the first to be so close to someone, he didn't feel that he was at a disadvantage.

But with so many things, he didn't have a showdown with Luo Zichen, it's really hard to get over it.

Moreover, even Luo Zichen didn't make it clear to him face-to-face that the sentence that could almost be regarded as breaking up friendship was a bit too much.

Sima Xun took a deep breath, squeezed the jade pendant in his hand, then put the jade pendant around his neck, and hurried to the quiet room.

As soon as he walked out of the door, he unexpectedly saw Rong Yi who was guarding outside the quiet room, he couldn't help being taken aback, and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"Subordinate..." Rong Yi hesitated for a moment, and instead of answering Sima Xun's words, he asked, "Your Majesty is leaving?"

"It has nothing to do with you." Sima Xun said flatly.

Rong Yi fell silent as if sad, and continued with a hoarse voice: "Tomorrow is the succession ceremony, Your Majesty might as well wait until tomorrow is over before leaving."

Sima Xun was stunned for a moment, and then he turned his attention to Rong Yi carefully, and some fragments of memories revived in his mind.

He suddenly felt that he had discovered something, which he hadn't thought about before.

After a while, Sima Xun looked at Rong Yi and said calmly: "You can be regarded as raised by me. Of course, you may not be so dedicated to raising you. All these years you have earned everything by yourself. It's just that you were raised in Yuanyang City that day. -"

"Your Majesty, you don't need to say any more, your subordinates understand." Rong Yi suddenly interrupted Sima Xun's words.

He seemed to feel that his tone was a little hasty and disrespectful, so he hurriedly continued: "It's my subordinate's fault, it's because my subordinate has been thinking about things that I shouldn't have thought about."

At this moment, Sima Xun actually felt a little soft-hearted, because he happened to be in the stage of being trapped by love, so he could understand the pain in Rong Yi's heart.

He really wanted to comfort this subordinate who had always been loyal to him, but of course, this might not be called loyalty.

But after a moment of silence, Sima Xun replied coldly: "It's good that you know."

This thing can't be dragged along. If you really want the other party's good, you are sure that you have no intention of having any entanglements with the other party.

Sima Xun continued: "As for tomorrow's succession ceremony, I believe you will handle it well."

Rong Yi's complexion became obviously worse.

But Sima Xun felt that he could survive.

Just like if he returned to Changyao Wanling Lake this time, if he didn't have an answer that satisfied him, he would definitely survive.

After speaking, Sima Xun turned around and left.

Unexpectedly, Rong Yi hurriedly said from behind: "Your Majesty, I have one more thing to do."

After all, Sima Xun turned around patiently: "What's the matter?"

Rong Yi: "It's about Shen Xun."

"You said."

Rong Yi let out a sigh of relief from his mouth, and said in one breath: "This subordinate went to check Shen Xun's life experience during this time, but in fact, Shen Xun's real identity was leaked by Chang Yaoshan."

"Neither is his name Shen Xun, nor is he an orphan who was abandoned when he was young."

"Actually, he is from Wansheng Valley. He grew up in Wansheng Valley since he was a child. He didn't become a temporary identity until one month before entering Changyao."

"I guess, he was actually specially trained by Wansheng Valley, that is, a person specially trained by Gao Zhuo."

Hearing Rong Yi's words, Sima Xun was really surprised.

If so, it makes sense for Shen Xun to betray him suddenly.But……

"Why is this in Wanshenggu?" Sima Xun couldn't help muttering, "Even if Wanshenggu wanted to plot against me, they would never guess that I can use Shen Xun's corpse to revive my soul."

"My subordinates guess..." Rong Yi hesitated for a moment, "My subordinates guess that they are fighting for Tianyan."

Sima Xun: "?"

Rong Yi's eyes flickered.

After a while, he said: "The blue bird gave you a letter before, and the letter was in your hand at that time, and the subordinate, the subordinate and you went out to read it secretly. Afterwards, the subordinates...burned it."

Sima Xun had already thrown that letter into the clouds at this moment, and now that Rong Yi mentioned it, he just remembered that there was such a thing.

"Is Shen Xun related to this letter?"

"It has something to do with it." Rong Yi continued, "At first I didn't understand the meaning of the letter, but later I realized that there is a paragraph in the letter that Luo Zichen accepted Shen Xun as a disciple because... because of you .”
