The dark clouds were changing, but there was no lightning, only thunder. The people of the capital were all worried about this strange phenomenon.
In the small room of the Ruiwang Mansion, the murderous aura was overflowing. Although Chirong still had a smile on his face, he had opened his folding fan in his hand, and Qingyan had already drawn his sword. The atmosphere in the room was on the verge of breaking out. Both sides knew that in this situation, the other side would not show mercy just because they knew each other. If they fought, it would be a fierce fight.
"Your Highness." Chi Rong shook the folding fan in her hand and said with a smile, "Your trip has caused a lot of trouble to the Immortal Realm Lord. The Immortal Realm Lord is already very angry, and now there are pursuers everywhere..." Chi Rong looked at Xingyun behind her, "Your Highness may be able to save himself, but he definitely can't save him. I hope Your Highness can judge the situation and stop acting on his own."
Shen Li ignored him, just slightly turned his body, turned his eyes, and glanced at Xingyun behind him: "Are you still alive?"
"Alive." Xingyun shook his head and laughed: "But he's probably dying soon."
"Not dead." Shen Li took the gun in his right hand, held the silver gun horizontally, held the tip of the gun with his left hand, and exerted force. The sharp gun blade cut through his palm, and the silver gun drank blood, and immediately became radiant.
Qingyan frowned and wanted to catch Shen Li, but he saw Shen Li wave his left hand and blood spots were sprinkled three steps in front of him. Qingyan stepped on the blood and felt like a blazing flame burning his whole body. He used his magic power to disperse the burning air, but he didn't expect that the heat would jump left and right like consciousness, and even hit his eyes. Qingyan had to retreat to protect his eyes.
Shen Li turned the silver spear in his hand and inserted it straight into the ground. The blood on the spear blade slid down the spear body and sank into the earth. A golden light flashed, separating Shen Li from a distance of two feet, forming a light shield that also wrapped Xingyun. Shen Li tore off a piece of her clothes and wrapped her left hand, then looked back at Xingyun:"As long as I am here, you will not die."
Xingyun stared at her blankly, and the light shield flickered behind her, but at this time, no matter how dazzling the light was, it was not as dazzling as Shen Li's. This aura was enough to catch all his attention, making him almost forget himself...
Shen Li's arm passed under his armpit, half carrying and half supporting him, and their bodies were close. The warmth from her body warmed his internal organs along the blood. Xingyun's lips rarely lost their arcs, and he lowered his eyebrows and eyes. I don't know what emotions were hidden, and they were dark.
"Your Highness." Qingyan said solemnly, "The blood sacrifice technique hurts the soul. The wedding date is imminent. I hope your Highness will take care of your body."
Shen Li sneered: "Don't you want to tie me up to get married even if my hands and feet are broken? This is just a little injury to the soul, so what's there to be afraid of." She turned her eyes. Although she couldn't see outside the house, she could detect the position of the pursuers outside. She wanted to find a place with few people to force her way out.
But in the blink of an eye, Qingyan and Chirong understood what she was thinking. They looked at each other and knew they couldn't delay any longer. They tightened their weapons and two sharp rays hit Shen Li's light shield.
They followed the gap created by the magic power and flew forward. The magic power collided and stirred the air around. After a loud bang, the wing room turned into ashes. Before the dust settled, countless rays of light shot down from the dark clouds in the sky.
They were sharp arrows condensed by the magic power of the pursuers in the clouds. In the rain of arrows, two figures, one black and one red, jumped out of the dust. Qingyan knelt on one knee, but could not stop himself. He supported himself with his hands and slid a long way on the ground before he stabilized.
With a "click", a crack appeared on his shoulder armor, and Chirong turned his palm into a claw and slapped the pillars of the corridor bridge.
The backward force pushed him and broke several pillars. The corridor bridge lost its support and tilted to one side, and dust flew. The red figure lifted the collapsed wooden beams with one hand, gently wiped off the light blood on his face, and smiled: "This is the first time I fight with the prince. The prince's strength is really amazing."
The golden light flickered in the dust, as if it could not support it, but after a moment, the light was bright again.
Shen Li stood in it, and blood appeared at the corner of her lips. Xingyun held her shoulder with one hand and stood up with difficulty.
He was not injured, but the poison had entered his heart and he could not stand up. He whispered in Shen Li's ear: "Why..."
The breath from his lips brushed the fine hair on Shen Li's ears.
Shen Li wiped the blood from the corner of her lips: "Don't make a noise." She said, "I will let you live."
Her voice was slightly hoarse, because she was injured. Xingyun suddenly grinned: "Shen Li, life and death are determined by fate.
You don't have the final say, and I don't have the final say." He sighed, "You..."
There was no time for him to finish. Fang Qingyan raised the long sword in his hand and attacked again.
Shen Li's eyes condensed, one hand held Xingyun's waist, turned the silver spear, and shouted in a deep voice.
The magic power turned into a sharp blade and chopped directly at Qingyan. Qingyan snorted disdainfully for such a frontal attack and dodged, but unexpectedly, the sharp blade turned in a different direction out of thin air and killed towards the sky.
Qingyan thought it was not good, and it was too late to turn around to stop it. The golden light crashed into the black cloud.
The soldiers in the cloud were killed by surprise and had to disperse in a hurry, revealing a way to survive.
Shen Li leaped and flew straight to that direction. Qing Yan sneered, "Your Highness underestimated us too much!"
After that, the figure disappeared from the original place, and when it reappeared, it was already blocking Shen Li. "With the burden, you still want to be faster than me?" Qing Yan waved the long sword in her hand, and the strong sword energy smashed Shen Li's light shield slightly into it.
Shen Li's movement was blocked. She gritted her teeth and stepped back several feet. Seeing this, Xingyun quietly let go of the hand holding her shoulder.
As soon as her body fell down, she felt Shen Li's hand tighten. She got angry and said, "Don't make trouble." Xingyun sighed helplessly, "It's not me who makes trouble, it's really... my waist hurts."
Shen Li was strong, and it was no problem for her to hold his waist with one hand, but she didn't want Xingyun's mortal body to be pinched by her strong force. But now in the air, Shen Li couldn't put him down, so she had to grit her teeth and whispered, "Hold it for me."
She danced the silver spear in her hand again, and the sharp light pierced the sky. Chi Rong shouted loudly: "Guard the west, the direction that the earthly immortal left! She still wants to go there!"
Shen Li naturally wants to go there, because the person who can save Xingyun is there.
The black cloud quickly gathered to the west. Shen Li did not dodge or avoid the golden light around her: "Whoever blocks the road will die!" The silver spear was full of murderous aura, and it was about to be stained with the blood of the Immortal Realm world soldiers.
Suddenly! It seemed that a strange force jumped out from the black cloud and pushed Shen Li away several feet away.
The golden light around her seemed to be captured by something, making her unable to move. Shen Li's forehead was covered with sweat: "This power..." Before she finished speaking, the golden light shield shattered, and an invisible force hit her face fiercely, knocking her directly to the open space of the Rui Wang Mansion, and knocking out a deep pit on the bluestone floor of the palace.
After the dust settled, Xingyun was seen pressing on Shen Li. He was not hurt at all, but fainted, while Shen Li fell with a bloody head and fainted on the ground for a long time before slowly coming back to his senses.
At that time, Qingyan and Chirong had already stood by the pit, and there was another person standing on the side with his back to the sun. The man's wide black robe inlaid with gold danced in the breeze, and two golden hairbands fluttered from behind to the front: "You are getting more and more daring to attack your compatriots."
His voice was as steady as ever, with a breathtaking majesty that made Chirong and Qingyan nod and kneel down: "Immortal Realm Lord, calm down."
Did the Immortal Realm Lord come in person...
Shen Li felt that the man's breath on her body had become weaker and weaker, and his body was no longer as warm as usual. Shen Li suddenly felt a chill in her heart, and a helpless feeling of weakness arose spontaneously. In the end, she could not fight against God...
"Come out." The Immortal Realm Lord ordered coldly.
Shen Li wiped the blood from the corner of her lips, hugged Xingyun and jumped out of the pit. She put Xingyun aside and held his pulse. It was weak, but he was still alive.
"Do you know your fault?" The voice from behind the silver mask of the Immortal Realm Lord was a little dull.
Shen Li looked at Xingyun intently: "I don't know." She said, "I don't know what's wrong with not marrying someone I don't love. I don't know what's wrong with not accepting a forced marriage. I don't know what's wrong with not wanting the Immortal Realm Realm to be controlled by the Heaven Realm." Her eyes were slightly cold, looking at the eyes behind the silver mask of the Immortal Realm Lord and said, "The Immortal Realm Realm has been subject to the Heaven Realm for more than a thousand years. Those idle immortals are idle all day long and live comfortably in the Heaven Realm, while my Immortal Realm Realm is confined to the time and space cracks beside the Ruins of the Sky Abyss, and is plagued by miasma all year round. No plants grow, and my people in the Immortal Realm Realm are even more miserable. As royal nobles, we have to help the Heaven Realm. Help the waste to guard the monsters suppressed in the Xutianyuan?"
Shen Li sneered: "I look down on his heaven. I don't know what's wrong with not marrying him."
These words made Qingyan and Chirong on both sides silent. The Immortal Realm Lord was silent for a while and said: "I'm at a loss, but in this matter, you disobeyed the king's order." The Immortal Realm Lord waved his hand, "Take her away and go back to receive the punishment."
Qingyan stood up and wanted to grab Shen Li's arm, but was scolded by Shen Li: "This king will leave!" She stared at Xingyun quietly. Perhaps her eyes were too hot, so Xingyun opened his eyes in a daze. Seeing Shen Li looking at him like this, Xingyun split his pale lips and chuckled as usual:"Shen Li, you look like you want to flirt with me."
"Yeah." Shen Li responded, "Just think of it as me flirting with you."
She leaned over and kissed Xingyun's lips heavily in front of everyone. Shen Li's golden hairband had broken, and her hair was loose, hanging beside Xingyun's cheek. The cool touch of the hair and the hot temperature of her lips collided with a strange feeling in his body, which made him stunned. Shen Li didn't know how to kiss, so she could only cover Xingyun's lips fiercely, so hard that Xingyun felt pain.
At this time, her hand also covered the back of Xingyun's hand, and the tip of her index finger just stopped on the piece of skin that was burned.
The fingertips flickered, and a bead gradually formed on her fingertips, slowly melting into Xingyun's flesh and blood, filling the piece of skin that was burned. "I told you that you can live."
Shen Li left his lips and said hoarsely, "Although, life may not be comfortable in the future. But you will definitely live. In peace."
She was not good at medicine and could not cure the poison in Xingyun's body, so she could only transform her magic power into his flesh and blood, and let her magic power fight and suppress the toxins in his body. So that those toxins could not attack Xingyun's heart, but Xingyun could not avoid pain.
She straightened Xingyun's clothes and patted his shoulder before leaving: "I said that I really like you. But I was forced to get married and can't be with you. Take care."
Shen Li got up and left without any reluctance, and her figure disappeared with the other three. Not long after they left, the black clouds that stayed over the capital city also disappeared. Xingyun lay on the ground in a daze, the breath in his body stirring back and forth made him very uncomfortable, but his spirit was much better than before.
The warmth on his lips seemed to still be there, making him look at Taitian involuntarily, touching his lips. After a while, he laughed and murmured, "It's as if... if you want to be with me, I will definitely be willing."
A long hair fell from the sky and covered his face. Xingyun pinched it in his hand. Suddenly, for some reason, he felt that he couldn't laugh at all.
Can't be with him...?...
The clouds passed by him in an instant.
"It's only a hundred or ten years for a mortal to enter reincarnation and forget the past.
" The Immortal Realm Lord stepped on the cloud and said coldly, "Why waste five hundred years of cultivation and magic power for him."
Hearing this, Chirong and Qingyan looked at Shen Li in surprise. Five hundred years of cultivation is so important to people like them who often lick blood on the tip of a knife. Lord BiCang... actually gave it to a mortal?
Shen Li's hands were tied together by a black iron chain, and her loose hair made her look a little embarrassed, but there was no trace of dejection in her eyes. She just looked into the distance: "I like it."
The face under the Immortal Realm's mask seemed to sneer: "You are just worried that I will send someone to kill him again and cut the grass and root it out." He said coldly, "Why do I need to do it? In just one or two years, this mortal will forget you, marry a wife and have children, and live a life that has nothing to do with you. Your intentions are just in vain."
Shen Li was silent, but she thought in her heart that if that was the case, it would be nice. She recalled the small courtyard in her memory, the rustling sound of the breeze passing through the grape trellis, so peaceful, people like Xingyun should have lived that kind of life all the time, but a person is always too lonely, and it would be good to have another person to accompany him. Although... that person is not her.
Shen Li suddenly remembered the first time she saw Xingyun when she woke up in the small courtyard that day. The sun was pouring, the warm wind was just right, and he closed his eyes and took a nap on the rattan chair. I hope he can be so peaceful for the rest of his life.
Shen Li took a deep breath, looking at the clouds in the distance, and suddenly understood Xiao He's feelings a little bit. Some things have nothing to do with whether they are worth it or not, but only whether you are willing to do them.
