Shen Li recovered very quickly, and felt much better the next morning.

She opened her eyes and looked around. The woman Jing Yan cared about had already woken up and was sitting quietly in the corner. Seeing Shen Li looking at her, she nodded and greeted him, and Shen Li also returned the greeting. She turned her eyes and saw Xingzhi leaning against the pillar in the temple with his eyes closed. The sunlight outside the window shone through the shabby window paper, and a little bit fell on Xingzhi's face, making his face look leisurely and peaceful. In a trance, it seemed that Shen Li saw the mortal sitting in a rocking chair under the grape vines in the courtyard again.

Shen Li closed her eyes and was quiet for a while, throwing away all the thoughts in her mind. When she opened her eyes again, she didn't want to meet Xingzhi's eyes when he woke up: "Are you feeling better?"

"Well..." Shen Li looked away, blinked twice, stood up suddenly, pushed open the temple door, and the morning light spread all over her. The miasma in the sky has almost subsided. Although there is still some smell in the wind, it is much better than before. Shen Li took a deep breath. Although the sunlight made her face pale, it also made the light in her eyes extremely bright. She raised the corners of her lips: "Although we didn't catch the mastermind this time, we can exchange for peace here, which is also a gain."

Xingzhi slept all night leaning against the big pillar in the temple. His shoulders and back were a little stiff. He rubbed his arm and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "In my opinion, the prince just lacks wisdom and strategy, and he has to make up for it with fate."

Shen Li raised an eyebrow and looked back at him: "It's strange to say, before meeting the God, Shen Li had never been injured so badly whether he was on the battlefield or fighting in private. After meeting the God, every battle will be wounded, and every wound will be serious. "She paused and teased, "If this continues, Shen Li may die on the battlefield one day. At that time, the God will have to pay with his life. "Xingzhi smiled: "Nonsense."

Shen Li turned to look at him in the backlight, and said with a bit of a joke: "The God is reluctant to part with his precious body."

Xingzhi stood up, patting his clothes and saying casually: "If there is such a day, Xingzhi will pay you with this life."

I didn't expect him to say such a thing. Shen Li was stunned and stared at Xingzhi for a long time. Suddenly, she turned her head and smiled, shook her head, and said nothing more.

"Ah!" There was a sudden exclamation outside the temple. Shen Li recognized it as Jing Xi's voice. Shi Luo, who was sitting quietly in the corner of the room, moved her expression and leaned out slightly. Shen Li frowned and walked towards that direction. Before she got close, she heard a noise. Many people were watching and whispering. Jing Xi was anxiously persuading, "Brother Jingyan! What are you doing!"

Shen Li pushed through the crowd and looked inside. She saw Furong sitting on the ground. His expression was not embarrassed, but rather a look of pride as if his evil plan had succeeded. On the contrary, Jing Yan, although standing, looked murderous, but his face was slightly haggard. He stared at Furong fiercely, as if he wanted to kill him as soon as possible.

Jing Xi stepped in front of Furong, her eyes full of dissatisfaction: "Brother Jing Yan is too much!"

Jing Yan's face became even colder: "Get out of the way, I must get rid of him today."

Furong said coldly: "Xiao Xi, your senior brother is so powerful."

Seeing this scene, Shen Li knew what was going on without thinking. She immediately turned cold and took two steps forward, kicking Furongon the butt: "What are you

pretending for? Get up, you are hurting people again!" Furong was kicked, turned around and was about to lose his temper, but when he saw that the person coming was Shen Li, the anger in his heart instantly turned into exclamation: "Brave man! You recover so quickly." Seeing Xingzhi also slowly coming over, Furong cleared his cough, stood up, and waved to the onlookers: "Don't look, don't look, go back to your own places."

The crowd dispersed, but there was one person who stood quietly without moving. When Jing Xi saw Shi Luo, her expression froze for a moment, and she lowered her head silently. Seeing her reaction, Jing Yan also looked in Shi Luo's direction, but seeing Shi Luo standing there with a pale face, Jing Yan was startled, and the anger on his face subsided a little, and he clenched his fists somewhat unnaturally. Xingzhi walked over slowly, smiling lightly: "Furong's play ended very early, Xingzhi didn't have time to see anything."

Furong curled his lips: "Xingzhi, the God, issued an order to drive people away yesterday, and Furong naturally dared not delay even a moment. So he planned to return to the heaven."

"Want to leave?" Hearing the implication of Furong's words, Jing Yan's anger was aroused again. He suddenly drew his sword and stabbed it straight at Furongjun. Jing Xi was so anxious that she blocked Furongregardless of anything and shouted, "What are you going to do!"

The tip of the sword turned in front of Jing Xi's chest, drawing an arc in the air, and was thrown aside by Jing Yan with great force. The crisp sound of metal hitting the ground aroused the nerves of Jing Xi and Shi Luo. Jing Xi looked at Jing Yan, who was always calm and restrained, in astonishment. He seemed to be unable to endure it any longer. He stared at her and said angrily, "You are staying with an inexplicable man all night. Not back yet! What do you think I'm going to do! "

Jing Xi was stunned, and after a long while, he said, "The Immortal King just took me to see the stars for one night..."

Jing Yan's face turned pale, and Shen Li glanced at Furongbeside him, with doubt in his eyes: "Really?" Furonggestured with his fingers as if to swear, "Of course I'm serious." He turned and glanced at Jing Yan, "Brother Xiaoxi is so angry, could it be that he couldn't find anyone after looking for a whole night, and he was jealous and couldn't help it. "

Jing Xi's eyes lit up slightly, and she looked at Jing Yan with expectation. The light in Jing Yan's eyes deepened for a moment, and then he glanced at Shi Luo, but he didn't speak. The light in Jing Xi's eyes slowly dimmed in anticipation. She suddenly wanted to ask, he said that there was a reason for caring about Miss Shi Luo, so what was this reason?

Just when the scene was silent, Xingzhi suddenly interrupted: "This flirting scene makes me dizzy. It's too tiring to be with women. Are you interested in taking a walk with Xingzhi?" Hearing this, everyone looked at Xingzhi in surprise. Xingzhi smiled, "Don't get me wrong, I just want to take a walk."

There was no one in the wild woods outside the temple. Because the miasma had just receded, there was not even a bird in the sky. After walking in the silent woods for a while and getting farther away from the temple, Xingzhi, who had been silent all the way, said, "Mr. Jingyan, you studied Taoism. Have you learned any magic?"

Jingyan was silent: "To be honest, I have followed my master since I was young, but I have not learned any Taoist magic. My master said that I am not talented in this, so he only taught me some martial arts."

Xingzhi took two steps in silence: "I have a technique I want to teach Mr. Jingyan. This method can expel the miasma in the human body. I wonder if Mr. Jingyan is interested?" Jingyan was stunned: "Of course I want to learn... but I..."

"If you want to learn, you will definitely be able to learn." Xingzhi paused, raised his arm, and gently touched Jingyan's forehead. The light sank into his forehead, and Jingyan's eyes suddenly became empty. The light traveled around him and then disappeared into thin air.

A light flashed in Jingyan's eyes, and when his eyes were full of spirit again, his pupils had turned silver-gray, adding a bit of awe-inspiring coldness.

The curve of Xingzhi's lips was light, but it was an extremely comfortable smile: "Qingye, long time no see."

"My friend Xingzhi." Jing Yan sighed, but his tone was very different from his previous one, "I thought that we would never meet again."

"If I hadn't met you in both lives, I wouldn't know that this was your reincarnation." Xingzhi shook his head, "The power of Heaven, even if I have lived to this day as a god, I can't even glimpse its power. It's all fate that I can find you."

Jing Yan smiled bitterly, "I didn't know it before, so I was frivolous, but now I have been burdened by Heaven for generations, and now I know that no matter you and I, we are just a grain of dust. No matter how powerful we are, it is just a blessing from heaven. If it says it wants to take it back, no one can resist." He sighed, "My friend Xingzhi, you are awakening my divinity at this time. It is not granted by Heaven, and it cannot be done."

"I won't do anything unnecessary, but I will open up all your meridians so that you can practice the magic of eliminating miasma in this life." Xingzhi was silent, "Also open your eyes to let you see who the person you have been looking for in life after life has become in this life. Don't go astray and make the wrong marriage."

Jing Yan was stunned and said with a smile: "You are more nosy than before. This is not a good thing for the gods."

Xingzhi smiled: "Also, I have another question to ask you. Do you still remember Fu Sheng?"

Jing Yan pondered for a moment: "I have some impression. When I was the King Rui, I was murdered by the Crown Prince in my early years. Later, I heard that the plot was proposed by Fu Sheng. Later, you also participated in the battle for the throne between the King Rui and the Crown Prince. You should know how crucial Fu Sheng played in it. I still remember that he was executed."

"Do you think anyone in this life is similar to that person?"

"This..." He pondered for a long time, "There is indeed a person. In this life, Jing Yan is an orphan. Both his parents suffered misfortune when they were young. Jing Yan was kidnapped for two years. Later, he escaped with the help of a girl and met Jing Xi's parents, but the girl disappeared. After careful consideration, the person who harmed Jing Yan's parents is indeed somewhat similar to Fu Sheng."

He was silent, and it was unknown what emotions were deposited in his slightly cold eyes. When he came to his senses, the silver light in Jing Yan's eyes was gradually dissipating. He heard him say, "You The divine power can only last so long. I don't know when we will meet again after this separation, my friend, take care. "Xingzhi

's eyes dimmed but he still smiled and said, "Well, take care."

The light faded, and Jingyan's body suddenly softened and he knelt on one knee. Xingzhi held his arm and said, "Try to touch the ground." Xingzhi didn't need to explain. Because Jingyan was too weak, he supported himself on the ground with his other hand. He felt his palms were hot. When he came to his senses, he found that the land in front of him had been purified to be much cleaner than the surrounding ones: "This... what is this?"

"Purification technique." Xingzhi said, "It is normal to feel a little uncomfortable when your ability is just awakened. You go back and rest. I will be able to eliminate the miasma for everyone soon."

Jingyan was amazed. After a while, his body was able to stand up straight. He didn't want to delay for a moment and hurried back to the temple. Seeing his figure disappear, Xingzhi picked up a stone and threw it at the dead tree behind him: "How long will it take?"

Shen Li slowly walked around from behind the tree trunk and cleared her throat: "I'm just taking a walk."

Xingzhi laughed: "In that case, accompany me for a walk."
