The marrow washing pool was filled with fairy air, but it was not a good place for Shen Li. When the rich fairy air washed away the miasma around her body, it also removed a lot of her Immortal Realmic energy. An hour of bathing made Shen Li exhausted as if she had fought a big battle. If she wanted to recover her magic power, she would have to wait until after the White Flower Banquet. Shen Li smiled coldly. She understood that this was exactly what the immortals in the heaven wanted. To remove her magic power and reduce her threat, these hypocritical immortals were always on guard against the Immortal Realm world... Even if they had already surrendered...

A loud "clang" sound came from outside the marrow washing hall, followed by the roar of the beast that seemed to shatter the beams.

Shen Li raised her eyebrows in surprise. There are also Immortal Realm beasts in the heaven? She put on her clothes, tied her hair, and pushed the door out of the marrow washing hall with a mentality of watching a good show.

Above the huge auspicious clouds in front of the hall, a huge white lion pounced on Youlan like crazy. The attendant of the Marrow Washing Hall stood in front of Youlan with a pale face, protecting her from dodging everywhere. However, the lion had already forced Youlan into a corner, and there was no escape. The attendant actually rolled on the ground, rolled under the lion's crotch, and fled in a panic, leaving Youlan standing alone in the corner, staring blankly at the white lion with trembling pale lips.

The white lion roared and raised its claws to slap Youlan. Shen Li frowned, flashed, and landed in front of Youlan. She raised her hand to block. Her arm, which seemed much smaller than the white lion, blocked the white lion's claws. However, although she blocked it, Shen Li frowned. She felt that her breath was unstable and her strength was running out. She couldn't push the white lion away. She knew that it must be the credit of the marrow washing pool. When she was in a stalemate with the white lion, Youlan behind her suddenly said, "No need for the Immortal Realms to rescue me."

"Okay." Shen Li heard this and immediately loosened her hand. The white lion's claws with murderous intent went straight to Youlan's face. Youlan didn't expect Shen Li to let go as she said. She gasped in fear and looked pale. When the claws were about to touch her cheek, they stopped suddenly. Shen Li said, "If you want to save your face, beg me."

If you don't want to get a bargain, then ask for it appropriately. Shen Li thought so.

Youlan hardly dared to turn her head. The wild beast's violent aura on the claws almost pierced her tears. A delicate hand quietly grabbed Shen Li's skirt. Youlan's voice was three parts fear, three parts unwillingness, and more of the weakness of a woman: "Please... please."

Shen Li suddenly didn't know what kind of mentality was satisfied. She smiled complacently, and then shouted in a low voice, pushing away the white lion's claws. With the other hand, she embraced Youlan's slender waist, jumped over the white lion's head, and landed behind it. Shen Li let Youlan go, and saw her fall to the ground limply. Shen Li said: "Originally, I didn't intend to save you even if you begged me, but you came to the Marrow Washing Hall with me, and it was too coincidental that you got into trouble here. I just don't want others to gossip anymore."

Youlan, who had just escaped a disaster, had no mind to pay attention to Shen Li's teasing. She only glanced behind Shen Li, and her face became more and more pale. Shen Li glanced back and saw that the white lion had already pounced in front of the two of them, with its huge claws already swinging. It was no problem for Shen Li to dodge, but it would be a burden to carry Youlan with her. Shen Li estimated that she would only feel pain for a few days after being hit by the white lion's claws, but the goddess might be beaten to death directly. There was no time to weigh the pros and cons. Shen Li hugged Youlan and scratched her back with its sharp claws. Blood and flesh flew everywhere.

Youlan screamed in fear. When had she ever seen such a scene in her life? After the first strike, the white lion's second claw was about to strike. There was some time in between, and Shen Li hugged Youlan and rolled on the ground, escaping the attack range of the white lion.

Youlan's hand accidentally touched Shen Li's back, and she touched her hand with blood. She trembled: "Are you... okay?"

Shen Li didn't even frown: "It's just a flesh wound." Shen Li saw that the white lion was about to pounce in this direction again, and she realized that the white lion had targeted Youlan. Shen Li's brows sank: "Why did you anger it?"

Youlan just stared at the blood on her hand, her face pale and she didn't answer.

Shen Li knew that she had just been in the marrow washing pool, and she must not fight this white lion head-on. She had fought with monsters for many years and was very familiar with the temperament of beasts. When beasts realized that they could not defeat their opponents, they would retreat. This time her goal was not to kill the white lion, but to force it back, as long as she could win it in momentum.

Youlan, who was sitting behind Shen Li, suddenly felt a heat in her body. She looked up at Shen Li blankly. In the backlight, the profile of this woman's face was so handsome that it almost made people forget her gender.

Suddenly, Shen Li's pupils flashed red, and the surrounding atmosphere moved. Youlan seemed to hear the clear cry of a phoenix, which was loud and clear in the sky. The burning breath around her became heavier, and the white lion opposite roared fiercely, unwilling to be outdone. It suddenly became a place for the two to compete for the king.

The immortals around had been pushed far away by the rolling air waves. Only Youlan behind Shen Li could clearly see the red in Shen Li's eyes becoming more and more overflowing until it dyed her whole eyes red. There was another extremely loud cry. The hot air waves seemed to condense into a dazzling phoenix in the air, whistling and rushing towards the white lion. The white lion, which had been roaring continuously, took a step back. The phoenix circled above its head, as if ready to dive and bite it at any time.

The white lion dodged left and right, and finally let out a "woop". Its body suddenly became smaller, and finally turned into a white fur ball, curled up on the cloud and shivered.

The murderous aura was instantly restrained. Shen Li took a step forward, but a hand grabbed her sleeve. She turned around and heard Youlan lower her head and whispered: "Danger... Danger. Don't go, wait until the heavenly generals come and see."

Shen Li raised her eyebrows. This goddess is a person who knows how to repay kindness. She grabbed the goddess's hand and took her away: "It's okay." Shen Li, who turned around and left, didn't see it. Youlan looked up at her back, then touched her hand, with an inexplicably complicated expression.

Shen Li walked to the white fur ball, bent over and picked it up. The white long-haired dog opened its black eyes, looked at her with watery eyes, and let out a whimpering sound for mercy from its throat. She shook it without mercy: "Tell me, who are you, monster!"

The long-haired dog shook even more violently.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please show mercy!" The white-bearded old man holding a whisk hurriedly ran from not far away, until he came to Shen Li, saluted her, and said, "This is the divine beast Huodou raised by the God in the sky, not a monster!"

Raised by Xingzhi? Shen Li threw the long-haired dog to the white-bearded old man and said, "Do you, the God, want to be the big breeder in heaven? He will have a share in everything."

"Hehe, listening to your tone, Your Majesty, it seems like you are complaining that everything is my fault." A word was interrupted and the immortals around him all bowed and saluted. Xingzhi came gracefully. The old man with white beard put down the evil spirit and bowed down: "I am guilty."

Xingzhi helped the old man and his eyes fell on Shen Li. His eyes moved: "Are you injured?"

Shen Li folded her hands and bowed: "Thanks to the God, I only suffered some flesh wounds." Xingzhi

moved his fingertips, and finally seemed to suppress some emotions. He just bent down and picked up the evil spirit and touched its head. The evil spirit rubbed against his palm as if it was very aggrieved. Xingzhi asked softly: "What happened?"

The old man with white beard said: "I followed the God's order to bring the evil spirit from Tianwai Tian to Xiyuan. Who knew that the evil spirit suddenly went crazy when I got here. I couldn't stop it. It hurt the prince and the goddess Luo Tian. It was really my fault."

Xingzhi then looked at Youlan from a distance and was silent for a long time: "It's not your fault that Huodou suddenly went crazy. Send the prince back to the West Garden, and then find a doctor to take a look." He turned around, walked to Youlan, and helped her up, "Come with me."

Youlan nodded with a gloomy face.

Shen Li returned to the West Garden. She didn't wait for the doctor from the heaven. She really didn't dare to trust the people from the heaven. She wrapped her wounds and changed her clothes. Seeing the white-bearded old man in the backyard looking for a rope to put Huodou on, Shen Li stopped him and said, "Don't put it on."

The old man hesitated a little: "But if it hurts the prince again..."

"It's okay not to put it on when it's good, and it's useless to put it on when it's not good, so don't waste the rope." Moreover, Shen Li is not stupid. As a divine beast, Huodou will not go crazy for no reason. Seeing that Xingzhi secretly went to find the goddess today, Shen Li knew that this disaster must have been caused by Youlan herself. Thinking of this, Shen Li sighed a little. She had only been in heaven for a few days, and she had been attacked so many times intentionally or unintentionally. It was really incompatible with this place.

The white-bearded old man thought about it, but he didn't insist on using a rope to tie the evil spirit. He muttered, "That's good. If you like it, play with it more. The God King originally wanted it to kill time for the prince."

After hearing this, Shen Li's body stiffened slightly, and finally pushed the door and returned to her room expressionlessly.

Close and distant, seemingly unintentional but intentional, Shen Li sat in the room for half a day, wondering what Xingzhi thought of her now. She felt like the long-haired dog. When she remembered it, she teased it a few times, like a fun to kill time in her spare time.

In the evening, the door was knocked twice gently. When Shen Li went to open the door, she didn't see anyone, only hot food was placed at the door of the room. Shen Li was not polite, and went back to eat with the food. This person's cooking skills have not deteriorated at all, but Shen Li can't help but feel a little sad when eating such food.

She put the bowl at the door, and suddenly saw Xingzhi walking out of a room opposite her. That was not his room, but Shen Li often saw him coming out of that room.

The two of them met, and Shen Li just nodded to Xingzhi, and closed the door without saying anything.

The words "Is the food to your taste?" stuck in his throat. Xingzhi glanced at the closed door and smiled suddenly, with a slightly bitter expression. "Is the food to your taste?" "Is the wound okay?" "If you are bored, you can play with the Huodou. It won't hurt you anymore..."

There are so many things he wants to say, but he shouldn't say them, and the other party doesn't give him a chance to say them.

Unable to advance or retreat...

So this is what it feels like.

At night, Shen Li couldn't sleep no matter what, so she simply went out for a walk in the yard. The moon in the sky was very round and bright, illuminating the house with the light of the night in the dark. Shen Li saw a twinkling light from the opposite room. She knew that this was the room that Xingzhi often went to. She was curious. Could there be any rare treasures in it? Shen Li glanced at the closed door of Xingzhi's room and walked to the opposite room lightly. She pushed

the door open, entered the room, and closed the door carefully. Shen Li turned her head and saw a huge screen. It was different from the usual flowers, trees, mountains and rivers. It was a dark and blue night sky with stars on it, like a sky curtain. The stars were flowing in it. It was a moving painting.

Shen Li was amazed and thought that there were indeed rare treasures hidden in it.

But when she walked around the screen, she was stunned. This was not an ordinary room, but another space that was opened up. There was no bottom under her feet and no top above her head. Shen Li seemed to have walked into the painting on the screen just now. The stars and the sea of clouds seemed to be out of this world.

What surprised Shen Li even more was that on those bright stars, there seemed to be small words engraved. She squinted her eyes and took a closer look, and her heart was even more shocked.

God Viewing the Moon, God Falling Stars, God Clear Night...

This is actually... the place where the spirits of the ancient gods are enshrined!

"It's best not to come in here." Xingzhi said lightly, but it still scared Shen Li. She turned around and looked at him with wide eyes. Xingzhi saw Shen Li's vivid expression and smiled suddenly, "Didn't I tell you before?"
