Chao Lu knew that fighting here would only bring her more trouble, so she raised her eyebrows slightly. The Blazing Sword drew a circle on the ground and firmly built a protective barrier. The thousand miles of smoke and clouds rolled over, and the wind blew and the clouds rolled, the flourishing brocade cloth in the square flew more happily in the smoke and cloud cage.
Chao Lu held her breath. The enchantment shook slightly under the move of “Thousands of miles of smoke and clouds,”but at least it could still hold on.
However, how could she, a half-immortal, fight against an immortal.
This stalemate was only temporary. If Yun Fu didn’t like her and casually threw out a dharma treasure, she would probably be defeated like a landslide.
Fortunately, Yun Fu only watched from the side with a dark face. This impetuous woman rarely made a move. If most of the immortal empresses of Brocade Palace were chasing after the fluttering brocade cloth in the sky, and a small number of them were watching from the side with their hands in their hands, Jiao Chaolu would be extremely frustrated.
She did not have enough strength. Her feet were slightly floating, and the enchantment kept shaking.
A sneer appeared on the corner of Yun Xiu’s mouth. Her wide sleeves danced, and another sharp light rushed toward the enchantment with smoke and clouds.
This was a warning from the winner to the loser. The cold smile appeared again and again in Chao Lu’s eyes, and finally turned into a wild smile.
The enchantment was about to collapse, and the laughter grew louder and louder. Then a light chuckle was heard, which suppressed the wild laughter.
Chao Lu looked up, and the wind blew the celestial alkynes into the air. She stood in front of the enchantment with a graceful figure, and after a light laugh, she said, “Exalted Immortal Yun Xiu, do you dare to attack me?”
In the ninth heaven, it was more like the human world when one was not in the human world. The hierarchy was still the same. Who Dared to touch Empress Lan Zhi’s close friends? Now was the time for Lan Ruo to be proud of herself. Unless you really didn’t care, no one would dare to touch her.
Therefore, Yun Xiu hurriedly withdrew her hand, her face gloomy.
Lan Ruo looked at the messy square and felt angry. At first, she couldn’t bear to see these two silly women suffer such a big disaster, so she accepted their kindness again and brought them to her square. Who would have thought that these two were not silly at all, but stupid, extremely stupid!
“Exalted Immortal Yun Xiu, you should know where to hit someone. What do you want by causing trouble in my Brocade Cloud Palace?”Lan Ruo narrowed her phoenix-like eyes.
Yun Xiu raised her head, her face slightly pale, and tried to reason. “It was this girl who insulted US first.”
“Exalted Immortal Yun Xiu, are you two going to repeat the scene in the Heavenly Palace? Are you going to complain first?”Lan Ruo cut her off and said fiercely, “Don’t forget your duty in my Brocade Cloud Palace to atone for your sins.”
Then she turned around with a smile, looked at Chao Lu, held her hand and said, “Sister, I haven’t arranged any work for you yet, have I?”
Chao Lu shook her head, wanted to say something, but hesitated. She closed her mouth under Lan Ruo’s gaze.
“Why don’t I arrange a job for you and help me manage these two insensible exalted immortals?”
“You!”Yun Xiu and Yun Fu both took a step forward, their eyes wide with disbelief.
Lan Ruo ignored the two of them and held onto Chao Lu’s hand as she walked forward. Her tone was very calm, so calm that no emotions could be heard, “Exalted immortals, you need to understand that no one knows how the vicissitudes of life will turn out in thousands of years. I also don’t know who will be the senior in this ninth heaven. I only advise the two of you to stop looking for trouble. Just like that villain, it will lower your status as exalted Immortals!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Chao Lu looked at the woman in front of her. She originally thought that she was a smooth-talker and a two-faced person. Her original image had completely collapsed, and she could not help but feel a little grateful.
As Lan Ruo walked, she stepped over the square made of colorful brocade cloth and entered the main hall of Brocade Cloud Palace.
“Thank you,”Chao Lu said softly.
Suddenly, she heard the woman next to her laugh. She covered her mouth and turned her head. “What I said just now was the truth. I’m not talking about what will happen to you in the future, but I’ve encountered this kind of thing before, so I’ve never looked down on anyone.”
Chao Lu lowered her head, her black hair hanging down. She looked so plain that it made people feel sorry for her.
Then, Lan Ruo patted her hand and said, “Big sister will give you a hairpin.”
She immediately thought of the little vermillion bird that Su Bai had given her. It seemed to be what Lan Ruo had always wanted. At that moment, a sense of guilt rose in her heart, but she could not suppress her curiosity. She could not help but ask, “Big sister Lan Ruo, this... Little Vermillion Bird...”
“The Little Vermillion Bird won’t do...”Lan Ruo smiled and held her hand intimately.
“No, no, I just wanted to ask, what’s the story behind the Little Vermillion Bird?”
Lan Ruo’s watery eyes were filled with surprise. She thought that all the female immortals in the ninth heaven knew about the Little Vermillion Bird’s story.”... you still don’t Know?”
Chao Lu shook her head blankly. Lan Ruo then pulled her to a jade block in the side hall and sat down. A cool breeze gently blew in and a trace of yearning actually appeared on Lan Ruo’s face.
“Little Vermillion Bird, rumor has it that it’s a token of love that Imperial Emperor Rao Tian gave to his loved one.”
Her heart suddenly skipped a beat. Why was it them again? They had heard about two past events in the past few days and both of them were related to Imperial Emperor Rao Tian... however, she could not help but ask, “Was it given to... that mortal woman by Imperial Emperor Rao Tian?”
As soon as she spoke, her mouth became dry and bitter. She felt an indescribable tightness in her chest.
Every time she heard about this past from others, she would feel sad and disappointed for no reason. She did not want to speak anymore. However, there were all kinds of questions in her heart. She had to ask.
Then, she heard Lan Ruo say in surprise, “So you know. Don’t you yearn for it? Although there are differences between mortals and Immortals, you love each other deeply. It really makes people envious...”
“Sister... Don’t you think that... Empress Zhao Hua is more pitiful?”Her heart felt like it was being cut by a knife. Her breathing became a little uneven, and the pain seeped into her five meridians and eight meridians.
Ever since she had followed her master, Mo Chen, all her emotions had been muddled. No matter how many layers of gauze she had covered, there had been no ripples. Now, at this moment, there was actually a strong feeling coming from the bottom of her heart. It was not like her usual state of mind, she suddenly hugged her body tightly and buried her head between her knees, not daring to listen to what was going to be said next.
That’s right, how could anyone in Zhaohua sympathize with her.
Little Vermillion Bird, Little Vermillion Bird... ordinary people looked at the love that was carried on the Little Vermillion Bird, but they did not see the pain behind that thing.
Lan Ruo was somewhat surprised. She turned around and looked at Chao Lu. Seeing her miserable expression, she could not help but sneer, “Little sister, you’re too immersed in your act. Who wouldn’t want to be a beloved mortal woman after hearing this story? If not you, why would you think of Empress Zhaohua?”
The sound of the zither was sobbing, as if it was crying and complaining. A wave of water gently rippled in the faint sound of the zither.
When it was in harmony with the wave of water, each note was melodious and cut through the intestines. It rushed straight into the hearts of those listening to the music. It was ethereal, but it lingered endlessly. Anyone who listened to it would feel a wave of sadness from their chest that hid their limbs and bones -- that kind of sadness, it was so moving.
The bright little vermillion bird swayed back and forth in his mind, and the zither suddenly stopped playing.
He slowly said, “I seem to have remembered something...”
No one answered. The fifty-string zither suddenly vibrated gently. “You really can’t learn it?”
He continued, “I seem to have remembered something...”
The fifty-string zither finally gave up and asked, “Remembered what?”
“When I saw that Little Vermillion Bird, I felt very sad and sad.”
“Perhaps, that was something from your previous life, that’s why you’re like this.”If the fifty-string zither was a human, it would definitely shake its head, “Look at how silly you are usually. You finally seem to have a human heart now. Why Don’t you get the Little Vermillion Bird from your disciple and do some research on it?”
He thought of the disciple who was wearing a simple flowery dress. She was standing there with her hands folded in front of her, smiling as she conversed with the Big Fat Peach Blossom Chicken in her hands.
Sigh, it was already the fifth day and he actually missed his disciple who was jumping around behind him.
He was just worried that he would lose the little vermillion bird somewhere if he allowed his temper to continue. Then, his disciple would fly into a rage. He shook his head repeatedly when he thought of this scene, he said, “That Vermillion Bird was given to Lu'er by er er er, so forget it.”
“You’re actually afraid of your own disciple. What kind of master is this?”Chang Qin had been with him for a long time, so she was very understanding.
Mo Chen actually lowered his head and looked at Chang Qin, whose strings were moving wildly as if she had a life of her own. A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. “It’s not bad to be a master who’s afraid of his disciple occasionally.”
If he was not a useless master, how could his disciple grow up? How could she turn from a meek little girl who was full of grievances into the person she was today, full of vigor?
“I heard that your disciple is working for you outside to atone for her sins. Aren’t you worried that she will suffer?”Chang Qin continued to shake the strings, vivid and lifelike, causing Mo Chen to be slightly stunned.
He frowned slightly and then sighed softly, “This time, she is the one who insisted on intruding into my tribulation. How can I resolve it? If she really suffers, this is also her tribulation...”
This time, Chao Lu was carrying a bundle of spiritual silk woven by the cloud brocade fairy, Lan Ruo, and was sent to the narcissus palace under her orders.
What a great young master Su Bai. He could really be said to be favored by a beauty frequently, making people drool. She muttered and lifted the spirit silk gauze in her arms.
The past few days had been very satisfying. After becoming the supervisor of Yun Fu and Yun Xiu, she was in a good mood and was exceptionally efficient in doing things.
Now, she also admired Lan Ruo a lot. She asked her to deliver the cloth, and without saying anything, morning dew became the messenger of love for the Swan Goose. To be able to lead a good marriage, it could be considered a good fortune for 2nd and 2nd Xiu.
She lifted her feet and entered Su Bai’s side room, but there was no one inside. Just now, the little fairy maidens told her that Su Bai was in the side room.
Just as she was looking around, she heard the sound of water coming from the inner room of the side room. It was really strange.
Chao Lu gently put down the spirit silk gauze in her hand, then gently pushed aside the gauze curtain outside the inner room and stuck her head in.
In front of her was a huge vase with blue and white flowers and daffodils, which blocked her view.
The sound of water came in waves, and she could even feel a wisp of smoke lingering in front of her eyes. The sound of the water seemed to be bewitching her, teaching her to slowly look away and look inside.
In her mind, Su Bai was lying on the bed with a streamlined neck and blood-red spatter on the lapels of his clothes. It was an enchanting sight that entered her heart.
Then she recalled standing in front of the forest when she was a child. Her snow-white straight back was also streamlined. The description was average, but he didn’t know if this body was still that... attractive.
He had warned himself the day before yesterday not to have any bad thoughts about his childhood sweetheart. However, reality was right in front of his eyes, and his heart still couldn’t help but stir.
Thus, he tiptoed and hid behind the big vase. He stuck his head out again to peek at the spring scenery in the room.
He saw an extremely large hall. In it, countless extremely thin threads hung down from the extremely high vault, and crystal particles dropped down. At a glance, it was sparkling and sparkling. In the light wind, it borrowed the sound of water splashing down like a drizzle of ice. There were many strings of beads hanging down to the ground. They were not in a row, but they intersected in front and behind to form a curtain of beads, blocking the view from outside the door into the hall. Going around the dazzling curtain of beads, it was an imposing atmosphere. On a white jade pool that was hundreds of feet square, there were no tall sculptures, but there were relief sculptures of narcissus catkins and reeds that were three feet wide laid flat beside the pool. Clear water and smoke filled the air. The white jade set off the clear blue water, which rippled and reflected on the many crystal particles in the room. It was really a beautiful scene of immortals. It was like a dream.
There was a black-haired young man lying in the water. From time to time, he would raise his head to look at the ceiling lamp of the white hall. There was a pile of white clothes stacked behind him, blending into the white jade on the ground.
The black-haired young man finally closed his eyes to rest. He casually held the milky-white water with one hand and wiped his body around. The water flew up and landed on his black hair, then gradually slid down.
He still held his back to face morning dew. His back was still as smooth as jade. Against the milky-white color of the water, it shone with a bright luster and dazzled morning dew’s eyes.
She could even imagine that stunning face that was as white as jade and as charming as silk. He was not a woman, but he was stronger than a woman’s beauty. He was handsome, but there was a delicate whiteness hidden in him. His face was like a crown of jade and as beautiful as a peach or plum, but there was also a little more handsomeness. It was a wonder to borrow the water to bloom, but when the water sank, the bone jade became the muscle. It was really like a graceful narcissus that was slowly blooming in this pool. A faint fragrance assailed her nose, and it was peaceful.
In an instant, the fragrance filled the air. The Narcissus spread out in the water and was soft and boneless. She raised her hand and supported herself by the side of the pool. She looked at herself in the pool and seemed to smile with satisfaction.
As expected of the young master of Narcissus... just as she sighed in her heart, she remembered that it was her childhood friend, 22. She imagined that he was rolling in the grass, rolling in the mud, and laughing heartily... She shuddered.
She wondered if she had stayed a little too long.
It was just a childhood sweetheart lying in the water to wipe his body, and he kept showing his back to her. If she continued to look at him like this, she would also feel that she was not normal.
So she crouched down and turned around slightly.
She took a step forward and heard a splash in the bathtub. It was actually the sound of someone standing up?
Subconsciously or subconsciously, she turned her head and saw a body that was too strong and too weak standing up from the water. Chao Lu’s heart suddenly pounded. She gulped and almost had a bloody nose and a row of saliva.
Everything about her was just right. Whether it was her appearance or her figure.
Fog swirled around her and her breath was dense. Her heart was beating continuously. A drop of water, glowing with the glow of a ceiling lamp, slowly rolled down from her round and strong shoulders and stopped at her perfectly curved waist. Chao Lu’s eyes did not move as she stared at the drop of water. It was as if she could be seen holding her breath and concentrating in the water. Her waist moved slightly and the drop of water fell again. It rolled to her buttocks, which instantly dyed her cheeks red.
Just as she was about to cover her face, the water droplet finally fell violently and fell straight into the pool along her long, straight legs.
The water in her heart also burst out in an instant, like fireworks filling the sky and making her dizzy.
They were clearly... childhood sweethearts... how could they use such a bewitching scene to repeatedly stimulate her little heart.
She opened her sore eyes slightly and saw that Su Bai had finally brushed away his wet hair. After taking a deep breath, he suddenly turned around.
At that moment, Chao Lu wondered if she should continue to stay behind the vase or leave immediately so that she would not be caught and embarrassed.
At that moment, her eyes instantly widened as if she had seen something extremely terrifying. It was not that Su Bai’s figure was not good, nor was it that he was not beautiful.
It was just that... she clearly saw a sword scar from his shoulder to his waist on his chest, so deep that his bones could be seen.
That sword scar... that sword scar..
In the lush forest, on top of a pool, he took off his dusty white clothes and entered the water. When he turned around, there was a shocking sword scar.
With a buzz, she was so shocked by this sudden memory that she almost lost her breath. Her body swayed slightly, and she held the vase. She held her heart and panted repeatedly, but she did not dare to let him hear it.
He was obviously lying to her.
Gentleness, thoughtfulness, closeness... it was not him.
So he was not the 22 who played with her in the grass and laughed wantonly.
Because he... was the one who was once ruthless and wanted to suck her blood essence... Hua Qing.
With a shake and a slip of her hand, she slid straight to the other side of the vase. This little movement was heard, but a voice came from the bathtub. “Who is it?”
It was no longer the 22 that she knew, the Su Bai that she knew.
She quickly turned around and ran out of the room. There was a gust of wind behind her, and she saw him casually throw out a piece of spiritual muslin, which was chasing after her like a living thing.
Gritting her teeth, she took out the blazing passion sword, and the fire instantly burned the spiritual muslin that was so close to her into two pieces.
Su Bai let out a “Huh”and looked at the familiar lotus-colored dress. The corners of his mouth curled into a smile, and he casually took out a piece of clothing and flew out of the water.
The door of the side room was right in front of him. Chao Lu quickened her pace and rushed out of the door.
After a slight “c***k”sound, a barrier suddenly rose up in the side room and smashed Chao Lu’s body backward.
Then, a hand reached out and slowly caught her flying in the air. He pressed her against the wall and saw her face flying freely.
“Lu'er, what’s wrong with you?”He was wearing a thin, wet shirt that clung tightly to his body. The sword mark on his chest was clearly visible through the shirt.
However, she did not dare to breathe loudly. She only closed her eyes tightly and opened them again. There was a hint of panic in her eyes. “It’s... It’s nothing...”
“You’re just peeping at me taking a shower. What are you so nervous about?”He forced a smile with a hint of doting. He gently tapped the tip of Chao Lu’s nose with his hand and wiped away the cold sweat on her back.
If this question was just a joke, she and Su Bai would still be laughing as usual.
There was an inexplicable sadness in his heart. It was impossible for him to be er-er. If he was er-er, why would he use such a tone to talk to her. But if he was a playboy, then... Where Did Er-er go.
There was a cold sweat and another Cold War.
A hundred years ago, the demon who swallowed the inner core suddenly flashed across her heart and finally stopped on this beautiful face. There were also mixed emotions in his eyes, which were inexplicable.
It was as if he was telling her not to expose him, not to expose him..
Yes, if she pretended not to know, she and Su Bai would still be in peace.
However, when she thought of the mysterious disappearance of 22, she felt a chill in her heart. Then, she looked into his eyes blankly. She was hesitating, but he gradually became cold.
“22... where is He...”she asked word by word in a dry and hoarse voice.
