Chapter 696 I Hope It’s Not a Sinkhole
On the Sword-Coming Flying Boat, Feng Aotian looked at the crystal of luck in front of him and was moved.
The preciousness of this thing was such that even at his peak, it was still something that could not be found by chance.
"Thank you, Master!"
He took it with great care and thanked Zhong Qing, and was very excited.
On this day, Feng Aotian left with the entire Three-Eyed Phoenix Dog Clan.
Zhong Qing and his party also continued to move towards the depths of the Xuanyu.
As they walked and passed, they left behind a field of corpses of the high-level members of the Chiyang Clan.
For Zhong Qing, this matter was not a big deal, and even from beginning to end, it did not cause much waves and shock in his heart.
But for the entire Chiyang Clan, it was undoubtedly a catastrophe.
The lack of high-level combat power will inevitably lead to the decline of the entire Chiyang Clan.
Judging from the past actions of the Chiyang Clan, what will greet them next is probably the division and erosion of the surrounding forces.
The cultivation world is undoubtedly cruel.
There are many cases where a race or force was strong yesterday, prosperous today, and dead tomorrow.
Obviously, the Chiyang Clan will be one of the many cases.
And the source of all these troubles comes from the greed of the Chiyang Clan's high-level officials.
...
After entering Xuanyu, Zhong Qing put away the flying boat.
The next trip is mainly for traveling.
Feel the customs and people of Xuanyu, and the beautiful mountains and rivers.
There is no rush for the appointment of the domain master.
As for the matter of accepting disciples, it is not forced.
Everything is gathered by fate.
When the fate comes, the precious disciple will naturally come to you.
This is the experience he has summed up from many true disciples.
The moonlight is like water, and the stars dot the sky!
The mist is faint, and it melts into the moonlight.
In the mountains and forests, Zhong Qing and his party camped in the wild.
The bonfire is raging, and the smell of meat is everywhere.
A group of people gathered around the bonfire, drinking wine, eating meat, looking up at the stars, and chatting about life, which is not a kind of enjoyment.
As all members of the Three-Eyed Phoenix Dog Clan retreated, the Twelve Demon Generals went into seclusion again to improve their strength, while Qilin and Xiaoga turned into totem marks, entrenched on Zhong Qing's arms, and practiced hard in the totem marks.
Now, those gathered around Zhong Qing also included Ye Ji, Huo Mei, Shen Jinkuo, and even Zhao Yu who was rescued on the way.
When Zhong Qing and others left the Void Realm before, it was early spring, the season when the snow melted.
After tossing all the way to the Mysterious Realm, it was late autumn.
The lush forests were withered and yellow in autumn.
Under the shining of the starry sky, the whole forest was filled with the bleakness of autumn.
Shen Jinkuo sat by the campfire, looking at the moonlight from afar. Perhaps the moonlight was too beautiful, or perhaps the melancholy was too strong. Looking back on the past, he felt a sense of trance and mottled.
After a sip of strong liquor, people were drunk even if they were not drunk.
With a little bit of intoxication, he said to Zhong Qing awkwardly: "Master, I have something to ask for!"
Zhong Qing took a sip of wine: "What is it?"
"I had an encounter with Fang Yi, the saint of the Fang family in Fangcheng, Xuanyu before."
"We made a vow to stay together for life under the moonlight."
"But at that time, her family had a major change, and they needed to get a powerful force as a backer ally through marriage to help her family through the crisis."
"As the saint of the Fang family, she was the first to become a political bargaining chip for the family marriage."
"Fang Yi once looked for my disciple and asked if I was willing to marry her?"
Speaking of this, Shen Jinkuo felt a little bitter.
When he learned about this, he was naturally very willing in his heart.
But he was competing for the position of the head of the branch of the Shen family, and it was a very critical moment.
The struggle for power is always cruel and full of blood.
There is no time to care about love.
In the face of love and power, he finally chose power.
The result was that the woman he once loved became a married woman in the blink of an eye.
This incident can be regarded as Shen Jinkuo's lifelong regret.
After explaining the cause and effect to Zhong Qing, he said with some embarrassment: "I know that I have no face to see her in this life."
"But I want to say to her in person - I'm sorry!"
"If... if Master has time, can I dare to ask Master to accompany me for a walk to give me courage."
At this point, he was expectant and nervous.
Zhong Qing glanced at this disciple and wanted to say something.
Since both parties have missed each other, why bother each other for the rest of their lives.
But he opened his mouth and turned into silent silence.
Don't advise others to be good without experiencing their suffering.
Zhong Qing has never suffered the pain of love, so naturally he can't empathize with the sadness of the person involved.
So he didn't plan to take office immediately.
It's not impossible to go with this disciple.
After thinking for a while, Zhong Qing nodded.
"Then, I'll go with you tomorrow!"
After saying this, Shen Jinkuo's face was filled with joy: "Thank you, Master!"
At this time, Zhao Yu, who had been silent, had a strange look on his face.
"Brother Shen, are you talking about Fang Yi from the Fang family of Wanren City?"
Shen Jinkuo asked in surprise: "Brother Zhao also knows her?"
Zhao Yu looked puzzled, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Know something!"
Hearing this, Shen Jinkuo said impatiently: "Then, then Brother Zhao, can you tell me how she is now?"
Since he and Fang Yi met for the last time a thousand years ago, the two sides have been out of touch.
There was no more information exchange.
At this moment, Shen Jinkuo suddenly learned about the news of the white moonlight in his heart. His heart was like an endless wave, and he could no longer remain calm.
Zhao Yu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he was afraid that the truth would be too cruel for Shen Jinkuo.
Even with his one-sided words, he was afraid that if he told them, the other party would think he was making trouble.
At that moment, he said with a strange look: "Regarding the matter of the Fang family saint, it is better for Brother Shen to investigate it personally."
"But the result may be very different from what you imagined."
"I hope Brother Shen is mentally prepared!"
This made Shen Jinkuo puzzled.
"Brother Zhao, can you explain it in detail?"
However, no matter how he asked, Zhao Yu was unwilling to reveal too much information.
This scene made Zhong Qing's eyes look strange.
His apprentice's former white moonlight was hard to let go. It seemed that there was a big melon hidden!
I hope it is not a sinkhole.
Originally, Zhong Qing didn't care about the love affairs between men and women.
But now, after being evasive by Zhao Yu, even he couldn't help but feel a little curious.
At this moment, a huge sound suddenly came from the sky above.
