Chapter 1 Mutual Complaints About Lovesickness

There is a large island hundreds of miles deep in the East China Sea. The climate in the deep sea area is very different. Although it is cold winter, the island is still lush with lush vegetation and towering trees everywhere.

However, they are all ordinary trees, and there are no spiritual herbs or spiritual materials, so no one cares about this place for thousands of years, and it has always looked primitive and barren.

It's just that there are several beautiful bamboo attics built on the mountain in the depths of the island, which looks a little more crowded.

The attic is surrounded by a quiet bamboo forest. The sea breeze blows through, and the bamboo forest makes a sound like the waves, which is extremely quiet.

A few flashes of light flew from a distance and landed in front of the attic. Four figures appeared, one man and three women.

The four of them looked very young. The man was dressed in a green robe, tall and tall. Although his appearance was not very handsome, he gave off a sense of determination and stability.

Next to the man in green robe, stood a beautiful girl in green shirt, and the two looked intimate.

The other two women are standing a little far away, both of them are also beautiful, one is in a long white dress, with a cold expression like ice, and the other is in a bright red dress, as warm as fire, it is Shi Mu and Zhong Xiu, Ximen Xue and Jin Xiaochai

"You haven't seen each other for many years. You must have a lot to say, so I won't bother you." Ximen Xue took a look at Shi Mu and Zhong Xiu, walked quickly into a bamboo building, and closed the door with a snap.

Jin Xiaochai also grinned, looked at Shi Mu meaningfully, raised her pretty eyebrows, turned around and walked towards an attic.

Soon, there were only Shi Mu and Zhong Xiu in the field.

Shi Mu frowned, but recovered quickly.

Zhong Xiu glanced at the attic where Ximenxue was, with a somewhat complicated expression.

"Is this your residence? It looks pretty good." Shi Mu looked around twice, nodded, then turned to Zhong Xiu and said with a smile.

"Let's talk in the house." Zhong Xiu pulled Shi Mu up and walked towards a nearby attic.

With a smile on his face, Shi Mu stepped forward to follow.

Zhong Xiu's residence was quite simple, without too many gorgeous decorations, only simple bamboo chairs, tables and stools, etc., but each of these things could be seen to have been put into great thought and was very delicate.

"Husband, please sit down for a while."

Zhong Xiu brought Shi Mu to an elegant bedroom, let Shi Mu sit down on a bamboo chair, and was about to turn around and get some tea.

Shi Mu grabbed Zhong Xiu's hand and pulled it lightly, Zhong Xiu threw herself into Shi Mu's arms involuntarily.

"Husband, don't, there are no restrictions around the attic..." Zhong Xiu blushed and murmured softly.

With a wave of Shi Mu's sleeve, several beams of light flew out and landed around the attic, opening a pale yellow light curtain.

Seeing this scene, Zhong Xiu felt even more shy, but she buried her head in Shi Mu's arms and said nothing more.

In another loft not far away, Ximenxue was sitting in front of the window, from here she could clearly see the situation of Zhong Xiu's loft in the distance.

Ximen Xue looked at the attic covered by a yellow light curtain in the distance, complex colors appeared in her black and white beautiful eyes, and she gently closed the window.

"It's no use just looking, but he's already here. If you don't seize this last chance, you're really going to miss it." A voice suddenly sounded, and Jin Xiaochai's figure appeared outside the door at some point.

Ximenxue didn't seem surprised by Jin Xiaochai's sudden appearance, and ignored him, and sat down slowly with a helpless expression.

...

Half a day later, on a big bed in the bedroom, Zhong Xiu still had a trace of blush on his face, snuggling up beside Shi Mu, his expression was full of satisfaction.

"Xiu'er, when something happened to the Tianfeng clan, where did you go? Why did you end up in Lan Haixing?" Shi Mu gently embraced Zhong Xiu, sniffing the fragrance of the beautiful woman in his arms, and asked softly.

He had held this doubt in his heart for a long time, but the joy of finding Zhong Xiu filled his heart, and now he thought of asking.

"Husband, it's a long story. Back then, the Tianfeng Clan was attacked by the Heavenly Court. My master, Zhao Xuanji and I escaped from Suzaku Star through a secret way. The master died in the hands of the Heavenly Court to kill us." Zhong Xiu said with a sigh. , the voice was a little sad.

Shi Mu exerted a little force and pulled Zhong Xiu into his arms to show comfort.

Feeling Shi Mu's firm chest, Zhong Xiu's expression eased slightly.

"What happened next?" Shi Mu asked.

"Later, Xuanji and I were surrounded by a group of people from Heaven. I was desperate, but the leader of those people was Sister Ximen." Zhong Xiu tilted her head and looked at Shi Mu, and said with a smile.

Shi Mu stared blankly, showing surprise.

"I had planned to capture it without a fight, but I didn't expect that she would make a sudden move and kill all the people in the heavenly court and Zhao Xuanji, and then imprison me, but instead of handing over to the heavenly court, she hid me in a secret and safe planet .” Zhong Xiu said.

Shi Mu was taken aback for a moment, but soon felt relieved.

"I thought Sister Ximen was a villain at the time, and I hated her very much. But later I found out that Zhao Xuanji was actually from the Heavenly Court, and she secretly leaked our secret escape route to the Heavenly Court. The master can be said to have been killed by her." Death. Sister Ximen took the risk to save me. It's a pity that I didn't understand at the time and said a lot of exaggerated words to her." Zhong Xiu said with some self-blame.

"Don't say that, you were also deceived in this matter, and I can't blame you." Shi Mu said.

When Zhong Xiu heard this, the expression of self-blame and sadness faded away.

"Husband, Sister Ximen saved me like this, but it's all because of you." Zhong Xiu's expression suddenly changed, and the watery eyes looked at Shi Mu with a half-smile.

Shi Mu touched his nose, his face was expressionless, but his eyes flickered, apparently his heart was shaken.

For him, Ximenxue did this.

If what she did was discovered by the Heavenly Court, her fate would be unpredictable.

He was silent for a while, and said: "I really have to thank Ximen Xue for this matter, but the relationship between me and her has long been..."

Zhong Xiu stretched out his hand suddenly, covering Shi Mu's mouth with his jade hand.

"Husband, Sister Ximen has deep affection for you. Even if she can't hear you at this moment, you shouldn't say that." Zhong Xiu looked a little solemn.

Complicated emotions emerged in Shi Mu's heart, and he sighed from the bottom of his heart.

"What happened next? How did you come to Blue Sea Star?" He didn't continue to dwell on this question, but asked.

"Sister Ximen hid me on a hidden planet. Later, she defected from the Heavenly Court and was about to take me away with her. Unexpectedly, the pursuers from the Heavenly Court arrived soon. The enemy is extremely powerful, and we are no match at all." Zhong Xiu also Didn't talk much about it, just continued.

"How did you escape?" Shi Mu's eyes flashed.

Based on what he knew about Emperor Quan, this person was extremely cunning and scheming. Although Ximen Xue acted cautiously, with her methods, it might be difficult to hide it from Emperor Quan's eyes and ears.

"Just as we were about to be arrested, it was a senior expert named Miao Kong who rescued us, and then he brought us to Blue Sea Star." Zhong Xiu said, there was something strange in her beautiful eyes.

"Miaokong! But a monk?" Shi Mu was taken aback for a moment, then sat up suddenly with a serious expression.

"That's right, husband, is there any problem with this person?" Zhong Xiu couldn't help feeling a little uneasy seeing Shi Mu like this.

She had seen this monk Miaokong once before, a long time ago, when her cultivation base was still very weak.

If there is any enmity between this person and Shi Mu, then things will be a bit complicated.

"That's not true, but this person is a bit mysterious, and he had some contact with me before, so people can't see through it." Seeing Zhong Xiu's expression, Shi Mu quickly comforted him, but he became more and more vigilant towards Miao Kong in his heart.

Zhong Xiu secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

"Xiu'er, do you know where that Miao Kong is at the moment?" Shi Mu asked after pondering slightly.

"I don't know about this either. He sent us to Blue Sea Star and left quickly. Before leaving, he said that you and Heavenly Court are at the critical point of the battle. If we go out rashly and are caught by the people of Heavenly Court, it will hinder You, so the three of us have been waiting here." Zhong Xiu said calmly.

Shi Mu nodded slowly, with countless thoughts turning in his mind, but his expression quickly returned to calm.

No matter what purpose this Miao Kong has, judging from his previous actions, there should be no malice towards him.

"You guys have been staying at Blue Sea Star since then?" Shi Mu calmed down and continued to ask in a gentle voice.

"The three of us waited here for a while, but for some reason, there was a sudden upheaval in Lan Haixing, and natural disasters such as earthquakes and winds occurred everywhere. The three of us took action to protect the former residence of our husband, so it was not destroyed. After the upheaval, Lan Hai A layer of space barrier appeared around the star, which was extremely strong, and the three of us could not break it together. The interstellar teleportation array of Blue Sea Star was destroyed in the previous upheaval, and we couldn't leave here, so we came here to live in seclusion. Because my husband's former residence is here, I know you will definitely come back, after waiting for a hundred years, you finally come back, my husband." Zhong Xiu said slowly, her eyes were as gentle as water.

A tenderness surged in Shi Mu's heart, and he embraced Zhong Xiu again.

Zhong Xiu smelled the strong masculine breath on Shi Mu's body, and his body and mind were suffocated, and it took him a while to recover.

"Husband, have you experienced a lot outside these years?" She asked.

"Some things happened, and that Miao Kong didn't lie, I did have a battle with Heaven..." Shi Mu slowly said the experience of these years.

Killing the emperor, destroying the heavenly court, opening the gate of the mysterious world, drastic changes in the star field and other shocking events came from his mouth bit by bit.

But he didn't say anything about Yan Luo.

Zhong Xiu listened to it, her wonderful eyes widened, she was almost dumbfounded, and it took her a while to recover.

"I didn't expect so many things to happen outside, and such drastic changes have taken place in the entire Star Territory." Zhong Xiu took a deep breath, with some shock in his eyes.

"The natural evolution of the heavens and the earth cannot be controlled by monks like us. Fortunately, this upheaval has not completely wiped out the creatures in the major star regions." Shi Mu laughed.

"Husband, you gave up the chance to ascend to the upper realm because of me, you are so stupid!" Zhong Xiu then bit her lips with white teeth, and sighed with emotion in her heart.

"I didn't find you, how could I have the intention to go to the upper realm." Shi Mu looked at Zhong Xiu and said in a loving tone.

"Furthermore, according to Shui Lingzi and I's speculation, now that our mysterious plane and the upper realm have strengthened connections, we can already ascend to the upper realm through cultivation, and we don't need to work so hard to open the gate of the mysterious realm. The road to ascension has not been cut off." Shi Mu continued.

"Even so, if you want to ascend, you have to go through the ascension thunder calamity. The thunder calamity must be extremely powerful. Although you are powerful now, my husband, you must be extremely dangerous." Zhong Xiu looked a little self-blaming.

"Hehe, Xiu'er, let's not talk about this, your husband and I are quite sure about getting through the thunder disaster, so you don't have to worry." Shi Mu hugged the beautiful woman in his arms, and said confidently.

Zhong Xiu was a little helpless, but the matter had come to this point, she could only accept it.

The two were tender and lingering for a while, and Zhong Xiu said: "Husband, let's go see sister Ximen and the others, and tell them these things. They must also want to know."

Shi Mu frowned slightly, but quickly relaxed it again.
