Chapter 361 Embers of the Heart
Ning Wuxie and Xuan'er were startled, but turned around and saw the middle-aged men sitting on the ground taking a deep look at Ning Wuxie, then stood up at the same time, picked up the package on the ground, and got into the right side of the room. In the woods.
Ning Wuxie was stunned, then turned around and continued walking with Xuan'er. Then she also picked a place and went into the woods on the right.
After pushing aside the bushes and passing through a group of trees, Ning Wuxie really saw the three middle-aged men and children! They just stood there waiting for him.
I saw white flames evaporating from the three middle-aged men like smoke, flying into a lantern in the little boy's hand.
Ning Wuxie was stunned, he recognized this thing.
It’s Ye Yong’s “Hidden Flame”!
And as the hidden flames peeled off, the three middle-aged men also revealed their true colors. They were Wu Yuan Zhenren, Xiao Qiuxian and You Youshan!
Ning Wuxie opened her eyes wide, wondering how they dared to show their true colors here, and quickly walked over in panic.
As soon as he got close to the three of them, Wu Yuan raised his hand: "It doesn't matter, there is a formation set up by Qiu Xian here, no one can detect it."
Ning Wuxie breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that they had been prepared for it.
He looked at the three of them. Wuyuan and Youyoushan were no different from the past, but Xiao Qiuxian surprised her a little.
He looked natural and peaceful, not like he had suffered a huge blow...
Have you already come out?
"Has the child been born?" Wu Yuan asked at this time.
"Yes." Ning Wuxie nodded, "My name is Ning Chen, it's been seven months."
"everything is normal?"
"Yes, everything is fine."
Several people were obviously relieved. As a fairy spirit, Xuan'er's childbirth was quite worrying.
"How long have you been in Dongli Mountain?"
"Half a year."
"...Sure enough, I guessed that you would come too, but we also didn't dare to leave the Strange Fire Tower."
Wu Yuan stroked his beard and said: "What you did is right. Ye Qingxuan has already monitored all the Snow Dragon Ridge in the north, Donghuang Dongli Mountain, and Chouyun River in the south. Except for the Yihuo Pagoda disciples in the four towns of Dongli, Any other cultivators who appear here will be kidnapped by the Renzong...or Ye Qingxuan's men."
"He actually did it so brilliantly?" Ning Wuxie was surprised. This was nothing short of a demonic approach.
What will happen to those abducted cultivators? All of them will be silenced?
You Youshan said: "The situation is very critical. We can hardly control the situation in the Strange Fire Tower, but fortunately you are here."
"Ye Liang told me that the elder of Yihuo Tower tried to ask Renzong for help to drive you away..."
"Yes," Wuyuan smiled bitterly, "It's really hard to explain, but now that you are back, the position of Emperor Yan can be handed over to you. It's just and legitimate, and the elders won't say anything."
"Wouldn't the Renzong know that I am Emperor Yan?"
"No, the Strange Fire Tower has always been closed-minded and low-key. It does not consider itself to be the right way, and of course it will not tell the Renzong. After you become Emperor Yan, just stabilize the situation in the sect and let those people continue to study the Strange Fire with peace of mind."
Ning Wuxie nodded, but then realized something and raised his head, looking a little sad.
"So...Senior Yanxiao is real..."
"I'm here."
The immature boy's voice came. Ning Wuxie looked down and saw that it was that handsome little boy!
"?" Ning Wuxie and Xuan'er opened their eyes wide at the same time, looking at the child who was no older than 8 years old.
"What?"
The little boy smiled and turned to look at Xiao Qiuxian: "Qiuqiu, tell them."
He was only as tall as Xiao Qiuxian's waist, but when he said this, he naturally put his hand on Xiao Qiuxian's thigh.
Xiao Qiuxian looked at the expressions of Ning Wuxie and smiled, touched the boy's head and said:
"This is your Senior Yan, who is indeed the legendary 'Fire Emperor'."
"Resurrection successful?!" Ning Wuxie said in surprise.
"Well, the embers of the heart contain the flesh and blood of the master, and are closely connected to the master's soul. Once the master dies, the soul will instantly escape back to the embers, waiting for resurrection."
Xiao Qiuxian said with a smile, with a hint of pride in his expression: "But after all, it is a thousand-year-old saint-level magic weapon. It is a bit difficult to activate, but I still figured it out."
"It's a pity that this guy was too stingy when he stored his flesh and blood. In the end, the little blood and essence was only enough to shape him into what he looked like when he was eight years old, so that's what happened..."
Xiao Qiuxian's mouth was full of contempt, but when he lowered his head to look at Yan Xiao, his eyes were full of tenderness.
Xiao Yan smiled bitterly, "At that time, I didn't know the relationship between storing flesh and blood and reshaping the body in the future."
Not to mention, his wry smile really sounded like a smile, he was handsome and mature.
"It's actually like this..." Ning Wuxie was shocked, "The embers of the heart are really magical... Congratulations to both of you."
"What is there to congratulate? How can he marry me now that he is so old?"
Xiao Qiuxian pushed Yan Xiao with his thigh. The latter swayed, but his expression was very happy.
"You've been waiting for three hundred years, now you can't afford to wait for ten years?" You Youshan complained, and everyone laughed softly.
Ning Wuxie also found it funny. A mature and beautiful woman like Xiao Qiuxian paired with an eight-year-old boy. This combination is really...
However, in just ten years, Yanxiao will return to the appearance of an adult, even younger. Xiao Qiuxian is really blessed.
"Then senior, isn't this a blessing in disguise? Not only has he gained senior Qiu Xian's heart, but his physical body has also become younger." Ning Wuxie said.
"No," Yan Xiao waved his hand and explained in a young boy's voice: "The Ember of the Heart is a holy magic weapon after all. It has been destroyed this time, and it also consumed fifty years of my life."
Ning Wuxie was stunned.
"So, after I grow up and my physical form is fixed, I will age faster than ordinary people, unless I can advance to the realm of cultivation."
"The senior's cultivation..."
"There is some loss, but not much," Yan Xiao lowered his head and said, "It is still slowly recovering, but it should not fall out of the fairyland in the end."
"After all, the Ember of the Heart is a holy-level magic weapon. It is impossible to have no cost and side effects at all," Master Wuyuan said from the side. "If it were replaced by the Phoenix Emperor's Furnace of Life in history, it would be possible to achieve perfection instantly after death. Resurrection without damaging the artifact."
Ning Wuxie nodded, "That's already good, I'm really lucky..."
"Then since senior is already fine, why do you still need me to be the Emperor Yan?"
"First, because my cultivation has not yet recovered, and second, because I look like a child now. No one in the Strange Fire Tower recognizes me. Even if I stand up, no one will believe me."
Yan Xiao said helplessly: "It's not even as good as you who possesses the Heavenly Fire Order and can convince the crowd."
"Third, for the long-term plan, in the next ten years, we can release the news of my death to confuse Ye Qingxuan, so as to interfere with his judgment."
Yan Xiao said in a deep voice, although for a child's voice, no matter how deep it is, it is still extremely immature.
"Of course, not now, but after we obtain the East China Sea artifact. If the news about the replacement of Yan Emperor in the Strange Fire Tower is released, Ye Qingxuan will know about it."
Ning Wuxie nodded, this is indeed a good idea.
Ye Qingxuan would think that his side's combat power has been severely damaged. In fact, we can suddenly bring out a strong man at the level of an immortal.
It will definitely exceed his expectations.
But that will all happen later. Right now, their target is still the artifact on the East China Sea.
"So, what are our plans next?" Ning Wuxie asked, "I don't know how they arranged it."
"First, take you back to the Strange Fire Tower to stabilize the situation." Wu Yuan said, "Second, let you escape from Qingluo Town without any suspicion."
"Then, we will set off eastward to the Penglai Islands!"
