Chapter 102 Hongyi Doesn't Want to Light the Fire Anymore (Please Subscribe) (1/2)

The voice of the red-robed Taoist boy echoed in the empty hall.

Cheng Guang was shocked by the strange corpse of the red-robed Taoist boy in front of him, and he felt numb for a moment, not knowing what to say.

At the same time, even the well-informed Cheng Shiyuan beside Cheng Guang behaved in the same way.

The red-robed Taoist boy did not get a response from Cheng Guang, and his crying became louder and louder. The slightly sharp crying sound entered Cheng Guang's ears, making his eardrum feel a tingling sensation.

Cheng Guang frowned slightly, and had a bad premonition in his heart. When he was about to say something, he saw the red-robed Taoist boy in front of him shaking his shoulders and sobbing softly.

"Forget it, even if you don't tell me, I know that Master probably won't come back."

"Hongyi was abandoned, but even if she was abandoned, she can't leave this Taoist palace, and she can't disobey Master's orders."

"Hongyi doesn't know what to do, Senior Brother."

The Taoist boy in red sobbed and whispered, and after a while, his crying gradually subsided.

His slightly empty eyes stared at Cheng Guang.

"Senior Brother..."

"You come back now, are you going to make a fire with Hongyi?"

Cheng Guang's lips moved slightly, and he felt a little dry in his throat, and laughed dryly: "Aren't there any firewood? How can we burn it?"

The Taoist boy in red was a little sad at this time, and a little smile appeared on his pale face: "There will be a way."

"The fire of the alchemy furnace cannot be extinguished. If there is no firewood, you can put some useless things in it as firewood."

"Useless things?" Cheng Guang seemed to realize something when he heard this, and cast his eyes into the raging fire burning under the alchemy furnace.

The flames burning under the tall furnace were extremely hot. Even though they were far away and separated by the furnace, Cheng Guang could still feel how hot the flames in the furnace were.

Even though his spiritual and martial arts cultivation had reached the fourth level, if he was thrown into the furnace, he would still be instantly refined into a pile of ash stains.

Cheng Guang cast his eyes on the orange-red flames dancing in the heat wave, and could vaguely see some phantom-like human figures in the orange-red flames in the furnace.

But those human figures were a little more distorted than normal people, and they were thinner and more weird.

At first, Cheng Guang only glanced at the human figures in the furnace flames and retracted his gaze without thinking much, but after being reminded by the red-clothed Taoist boy in front of him, he suddenly felt that these things in the furnace that were used as firewood, and the things that the red-clothed Taoist boy called "useless things", might be living people.

People who were accidentally involved in the secret realm.

Thinking of this, Cheng Guang's scalp tingled instantly.

He suddenly realized why this Tushita Palace looked so quiet, and there was not much danger when walking in it, and why Qin Yanqiu died here in the system task prompt.

It turned out that all this was done by the slightly weird red-clothed Taoist boy in front of him.

He caught it and threw it into the alchemy furnace as firewood.

Cheng Guang realized this, and Cheng Shiyuan beside Cheng Guang also realized this. His old face condensed slightly, and his eyes looked at the red-clothed Taoist boy in front of him, and the vigilance became more intense.

The breath on his body began to surge. As long as he found something wrong, or the red-clothed Taoist boy in front of him showed signs of taking action, he was ready to send Cheng Guang out of the secret realm as soon as possible.

Cheng Guang looked at the red-clothed Taoist boy in front of him, and felt that the hair on his body stood up.

For so many years, the red-clothed Taoist boy has been burning fire.

It is conceivable that over the years, the red-robed Taoist boy has thrown many people who were accidentally involved in this place into the alchemy furnace as firewood.

Many of them may have extremely high cultivation strength, and there may be strong people who have reached the heavenly realm, but they have not been able to stir up a wave in this Tushita Palace.

The red-robed Taoist boy in front of him is very strong!

His strength is not ordinary and terrifying!

Cheng Guang is a little doubtful at this time, whether Cheng Shiyuan will not be the opponent of the red-robed Taoist boy in front of him.

In addition, Cheng Guang is inexplicably a little worried at this time. He doesn't know how Qin Yanqiu is now. If he is caught by the red-robed Taoist boy and thrown into the alchemy furnace as firewood, it is basically impossible for him to survive under the scorching high temperature of the alchemy furnace.

Thinking of this, Cheng Guang asked: "Where did you find the useless things you mentioned? Have you put them into the furnace now?"

The red-clothed Taoist child listened to Cheng Guang's question, tilted his head slightly to one side, thinking, and then shook his head and said: "Most of the useless things I put into the furnace are mortals who broke into the Tushita Palace. I don't know where those mortals came from. It stands to reason that mortals cannot enter Master's Tushita Palace."

"However, I didn't put all these mortals directly into the furnace."

"Most of them were imprisoned. Just burn a little every day. At this time, Master is not here, and there is no elixir, so there is no need to increase the firepower, so just keep the furnace fire burning."

"Brother, you have become stupid."

The red-clothed Taoist child said at the end, pointing at Cheng Guang and laughing.

When Cheng Guang heard this, he realized that the mortals mentioned by the red-clothed Taoist child might be Qin Yanqiu and his group who were involved in the secret realm.

Although the cultivation of Qin Yanqiu and his group was not particularly high, it was definitely not low. Cheng Guang did not expect that they could be called mortals in the mouth of the red-clothed Taoist boy.

Cheng Guang could not see through the strength of the red-clothed Taoist boy at this time.

Cheng Guang took a deep breath and tried to calm his inner emotions. After a while, he asked, "Then... where did you imprison those mortals?"

Although the red-clothed Taoist boy was terrifyingly powerful, his temperament seemed very simple. Facing Cheng Guang's question, he did not hide anything. Instead, he was a little childish and pulled Cheng Guang with one hand, grabbed Cheng Guang's dress, and pulled Cheng Guang to the inner room as if showing off.

"Brother, come with me, we are all here."

The moment the red-clothed Taoist boy's hand reached out to Cheng Guang, Cheng Shiyuan's scalp tingled, and he immediately wanted to pull Cheng Guang behind him and retreat.

But seeing Cheng Guang shook his head, his expression was calm, without a trace of panic.

Cheng Shiyuan's heart also calmed down a little.

He felt inexplicably that his child seemed to be very familiar with this secret realm. First, he asked him to wear such a slightly strange outfit, and then told him not to use his vitality.

Although Cheng Shiyuan didn't quite understand all these operations, he could sense them. Perhaps it was because he wore such a strange outfit that the red-clothed Taoist boy only glanced at him when he appeared, and did not show much hostility.

Otherwise, he would have been gone by now.

As a result, Cheng Shiyuan completely didn't understand why the red-clothed Taoist boy in front of him called his grandson "senior brother".

Even if he didn't use his vitality, his strength would probably not be hidden from the eyes of the red-clothed Taoist boy.

But even so, the red-clothed Taoist boy didn't look at him for a few more times, but instead focused all his eyes on Cheng Guang.

All this can hardly be described as coincidence.

Cheng Shiyuan was in a state of shock at this moment, but he did not say much. He planned to ask his grandson what was going on after he went out.

Cheng Shiyuan tried to calm himself down, staring at the figure of the Taoist boy in red with his old face, and then slowly followed Cheng Guang.

Facing such a strange corpse of a Taoist boy who had existed for who knows how many years, even if Cheng Shiyuan himself was in the realm of heaven and man, he had to be cautious.

If there was an accident, Cheng Shiyuan thought, even if he didn't care about his own life, he had to save Cheng Guang.

Thinking of this, Cheng Shiyuan's old face revealed a little bitterness. He originally came in to save Qin Yanqiu, and at the same time let him show his sainthood in front of his grandson.

Who would have thought that it was his grandson who showed his sainthood in front of him.

Cheng Shiyuan looked at Cheng Guang's calm and composed expression, and couldn't help sighing in his heart.

As an old man who has reached the level of a celestial being, the mentality of Cheng Guang is not as stable as that of his grandson.

Cheng Guang did not pay much attention to Cheng Shiyuan behind him at this time, and put his eyes on the red-clothed Taoist boy in front of him.

From the beginning, Cheng Guang felt that the red-clothed Taoist boy seemed to regard him as someone.

Maybe it was because of the Taoist robe on his body, but it was definitely more than that.

Because the red-clothed Taoist boy saw himself and Cheng Shiyuan at the same time.

Cheng Shiyuan also wore a Taoist robe, so why did he call himself senior brother but didn't care much about Cheng Shiyuan?

You know, Cheng Shiyuan's cultivation is much stronger than his own.

Is it because of his face, or some other reason?

Cheng Guang was thinking in his heart, and suddenly he seemed to think of something, and his eyes were slightly bright.

A strange treasure appeared in his mind.

Breath-gathering beads.

Breath-gathering beads can cover the breath and hide the fate.

As a result, the red-robed Taoist boy could not see through his true colors, and subconsciously regarded himself as someone who was slightly consistent with his memory.

The person called senior brother by the red-robed Taoist boy.

What kind of existence is he?

Thoughts surged in Cheng Guang's mind, and he couldn't figure it out for a while, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

Anyway, being regarded as an unknown senior brother by the red-robed Taoist boy is definitely not a bad thing.

If an ordinary person entered this Tushita Palace, he would have been imprisoned as firewood by the red-robed Taoist boy. He was so respected by the red-robed Taoist boy at this time and treated as a guest of honor, which was already a dreamlike treatment.

While Cheng Guang was thinking, the red-robed Taoist boy paused slightly.

He took Cheng Guang to a side room not far from the main hall where the alchemy furnace was located. After opening the door, the scenery inside came into view.

I saw many figures tied to the sorghum jade pillars, like hanging upside down gourds.

These people were tied up tightly. Although they looked pale and slightly weak, they were still alive.

When the door was pushed open, the red-clothed Taoist child walked in.

Many figures trembled subconsciously, as if they had seen some terrifying monster, their eyes widened in panic, and bursts of suppressed crying came from their throats.

Many of them knew that every time the red-clothed Taoist child came to this room, he would take someone away and throw him into the alchemy furnace.

Although they didn't see it with their own eyes, they could hear it.

Even though they were separated by thick walls and heavy doors, they could hear the horrifying roar full of pain and torture.

So when they saw this strange red-robed Taoist boy again, they all thought of the scene that happened next, and fear crawled all over their hearts like a spider.

Just as they were about to accept the judgment of fate, they suddenly saw the red-robed Taoist boy waving to the outside of the door, proudly with his hands on his waist, as if showing off his achievements to his elders.

"Brother, come and see."

This red-robed Taoist boy, can he speak?

Many people saw it for the first time, and their eyes widened a little.

This red-robed Taoist boy has terrifying strength, but how can he also have intelligence?

In the hall, there was a faint cry, which disappeared in an instant, and there was silence.

Cheng Guang followed the red-robed Taoist boy into the room and looked at the scenery in the room.

This side room is not big. It may have been used to store sundries in the past, and many containers were placed, but now, it is all empty.

Many figures were hanging on the tall jade pillars with many fairy birds and beasts carved on them. Those figures were like inverted gourds hanging in the air.

The complicated ropes wrapped them tightly, leaving only their heads exposed.

Cheng Guang took a quick glance and felt that there were many people here, at least a hundred people.

There were human beings, monsters, and some creatures with strange looks, whose races were unknown.

They were all looking at him with a horrified look.

Their expressions were complicated and desperate.

Cheng Guang didn't know what they were thinking, but he didn't care. He scanned the hall again, wanting to see if Qin Yanqiu was here.

At this time, when the people who were hanging saw Cheng Guang appear, they wanted to cry again.

They saw that the Taoist robes Cheng Guang was wearing were exactly the same as those of the red-clothed Taoist boy.

And Cheng Guang... was called Senior Brother by the red-clothed Taoist boy.

Many people think that Cheng Guang may be a more terrifying and strange existence than the red-robed Taoist boy.

Among the crowd of people hanging, a pair of eyes as bright as stars, but indifferent and cold, were looking at Cheng Guang.

When she saw Cheng Guang's figure, her eyes were slightly stunned.

She was stunned for a moment.

Because she found that Cheng Guang's appearance was inexplicably familiar to her.

But on second thought, it was unlikely.

Although the prince of the Zhenguo Duke she was familiar with would come to Zhenbei City and marry her during this period, there was no reason for him to appear in this secret realm.

It was even more unlikely that the red-robed Taoist boy would respectfully call him senior brother.

I think they are not the same person.

They just look a little similar.

When she was comforting herself like this, she saw another old figure coming out from behind Cheng Guang, and at the same time, his old and majestic eyes swept over her.

Qin Yanqiu just took a look at the old man's face and was stunned.

This is...

Is this the Duke of Zhenguo...?

Qin Yanqiu saw the face of the Duke of Zhenguo Cheng Shiyuan clearly, and she felt as if she was dreaming.

She had expected that someone would come to save her after she was accidentally involved in the secret realm.

But she didn't expect that it would be the Duke of Zhenguo himself.

The Duke of Zhenguo came, which proved that the man who looked like the Duke of Zhenguo and was called "senior brother" by the red-clothed Taoist boy was the Duke of Zhenguo?

Qin Yanqiu felt a little confused for some reason, and couldn't understand what was going on in front of her for a while.

When Qin Yanqiu was looking at the Duke of Zhenguo Cheng Shiyuan and Cheng Guang, Cheng Shiyuan also cast his eyes on Qin Yanqiu as soon as he entered the hall.

Seeing that Qin Yanqiu was temporarily safe, he breathed a sigh of relief.

If Qin Yanqiu, such a brilliant woman, the future granddaughter-in-law, had something wrong in this secret realm, Cheng Shiyuan felt that if he failed to save her, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.

Cheng Guang also found Qin Yanqiu at this time. Seeing her tied up with ropes all over her body and in a miserable state, he felt funny for some reason.

I didn't expect that their first meeting would be in such an awkward situation.

After glancing at Qin Yanqiu, he turned his gaze back to the red-clothed Taoist boy beside him.

The red-clothed Taoist boy's stiff mouth twitched at this time, as if he was laughing, "Brother, with so many people, it can burn for a long time, so don't worry about the fire going out."

Cheng Guang nodded slightly.

He had already seen the red-clothed Taoist boy's obsession with the fire.

Cheng Guang looked at the red-clothed Taoist boy and asked tentatively: "Can I take a few people away from here?"

In Cheng Guang's view, if he could avoid a conflict with the red-clothed Taoist boy, he would try not to have a conflict. He would at least not make mistakes by asking a few questions first.

The red-clothed Taoist boy was stunned when he heard this, as if he didn't expect Cheng Guang to say this. He hesitated for a moment, and then nodded slightly.

"Brother, it's okay for you to take these mortals away, but these mortals have no other use except for firewood. What do you want to do with them?"

Cheng Guang smiled, not knowing how to explain.

The red-clothed Taoist child saw Cheng Guang was silent, as if he had thought of something, and suddenly realized it. He pulled Cheng Guang's sleeve and whispered:

"Brother, I know, you probably want to make some kind of human pill. It's better not to touch this kind of thing. It's okay to use monsters to make pills. After all, there are merits and can offset sins. But if you use mortals to make pills, if the master knows, I'm afraid you can't avoid a punishment..."

The red-clothed Taoist child looked worried. At this point, he sighed again.

"But it doesn't matter. I don't know where the master went and he hasn't returned. Now only the red-clothed man is by my side. I can do whatever I want."

As he said that, the red-clothed Taoist boy waved his hand, and an inexplicable and slightly rotten breath came out of his hand, and the ropes that bound everyone swayed gently.

"Brother, which mortal do you want to practice alchemy?"

The red-clothed Taoist boy looked at Cheng Guang with his eyes flashing with ghost fire.

Cheng Guang was frightened by the red-clothed Taoist boy's gaze, and a slightly stiff smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, pointing at Qin Yanqiu.

"This person."

For now, save Qin Yanqiu first.

Cheng Guang can't care about the lives of others for the time being.

Although the red-clothed Taoist boy agreed to take a few mortals out from here, it doesn't mean that he doesn't value these mortals.

All the people here are his future reserve firewood, and it is impossible for him to allow himself to take people out from here without restraint.

If we can save them later, we will save a few more people. If we can't save them, forget it.

The red-clothed Taoist boy looked at Qin Yanqiu, nodded slightly, and pointed with one hand. The rope tied to Qin Yanqiu seemed to have life, like a thin long snake, and slowly loosened its body.

Qin Yanqiu fell to the ground weakly and landed in front of Cheng Guang.

Her beautiful face was slightly pale, and her expression seemed a little panicked, gasping for breath.

Qin Yanqiu calmed her breathing, raised her eyes and looked at Cheng Guang, with a little gratitude in her cold eyes.

Cheng Guang just glanced at Qin Yanqiu lightly, and then retracted his gaze.

The red-clothed Taoist boy looked at Cheng Guang again at this time and asked, "Brother, do you need anyone else?"

As soon as the red-clothed Taoist boy said this.

In the hall, some people became excited.

Many of them, although they heard the terrifying word "Lian Ren Dan" from the red-clothed Taoist boy, but seeing Qin Yanqiu's expression, seemed to feel that Cheng Guang in front of them knew Qin Yanqiu and was not the same kind of person as the red-clothed Taoist boy.

They all looked at Cheng Guang for help.

Cheng Guang did not pay attention to the look of help from the people in the hall, but just glanced at Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo, beside him.

He looked to see if there were any people from the Northern Expedition Army here.

If there were, they could be rescued together.

Just by looking at each other, Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo, understood what Cheng Guang meant and shook his head slightly.

Cheng Guang was slightly stunned when he saw this. Was Qin Yanqiu alone involved in the secret realm?

Or did all the soldiers following Qin Yanqiu meet with misfortune?

A few thoughts flashed through Cheng Guang's mind, but he didn't think much about it. He smiled at the red-clothed Taoist boy and said, "It's okay. Just one person is enough."

The red-clothed Taoist boy nodded slightly, "Okay."

After that, he took Cheng Guang out of the side room.

The door of the side room was closed again.

The hall was quiet again.

The red-clothed Taoist boy walked in front, chatting with Cheng Guang casually, like a chatterbox.

"Brother, these mortals are relatively weak. Although they are not worth mentioning compared to us at the beginning, they are still much stronger than the mortals in the past."

"Using these mortals as firewood, the alchemy furnace can also burn for a long time."

"You use these mortals to refine human pills, and I think the effect is also good."

"But speaking of it, brother, if you want to refine pills, I'm afraid you can't use the pill furnace I burn. This is the pill furnace that only the master can use. Brother, did you bring your own pill furnace back?"

The red-clothed Taoist boy said this and cast his eyes on Cheng Guang.

Cheng Guang thought for a moment after hearing this, and replied, "Not yet, I have to go out to get it later."

The red-clothed Taoist boy nodded slightly and sighed, "Hongyi can't leave here, otherwise he can go out with senior brother."

"Senior brother has disappeared for so many years, where did he go with Master?"

"You didn't take Hongyi with you, Hongyi is here alone, it's really lonely."

"Senior brother, don't come back when you go to get the alchemy furnace this time."

Cheng Guang didn't know how to answer after hearing this, so he stopped responding.

At the same time, Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo, silently checked Qin Yanqiu's body and found that Qin Yanqiu was fine. He just ran out of vitality, but he didn't suffer any injuries. He was relieved immediately.

After confirming that Qin Yanqiu was fine, he wanted to take Cheng Guang and Qin Yanqiu away.

Cheng Guang didn't need Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo, to signal him to leave at this time.

But before leaving, Cheng Guang still couldn't let go of the Nine-Turn Golden Pill in the gourd hanging on the jade pillar in the hall where the alchemy furnace was located.

According to the system task prompt, the secret realm of Tushita Palace will only appear once in a short period of time. After this appearance, it is unknown when it will appear next time.

At the moment, the red-clothed Taoist child has a good sense of himself and will not attack him.

Cheng Guang decided to give it a try, maybe he could turn a bicycle into a motorcycle.

After arriving at the hall where the alchemy furnace is located, Cheng Guang paused and looked at the black jade gourd hanging on the jade pillar. Before he got close, he could smell the faint fragrance emanating from the gourd.

A series of pale golden lights could faintly penetrate the surface of the black jade gourd and enter Cheng Guang's eyes.

Cheng Guang was moved, "Can the pills in these gourds still be used?"

When the red-clothed Taoist boy heard Cheng Guang's words, he paused slightly, then turned his gaze to the mysterious jade gourd hanging on the jade pillar, and said with a smile: "What did senior brother say? You probably haven't been back for a long time and you don't recognize it." , these are not pills.”

"It's just that the master has refined some auxiliary materials for practicing elixirs."

"Oh, that's right." The Taoist boy in red seemed to have just remembered something when he saw the gourd. He stretched out his hand and grabbed one of the gourds in the air and handed it to Cheng Guang.

"Senior brother, if you want to refine the elixir, you may need these auxiliary materials. Now, I'll give you all these."

"There's nothing wrong with moving less. If you move too much, it will be difficult for Hongyi to explain when the master comes back in the future."

Cheng Guang took the gourd from the Taoist boy in red. The faint fragrance filled his nose, and his cultivation level increased a little.

At the same time, his heart was greatly shocked after hearing the words of the Taoist boy in red.

The divine elixir in the system mission prompt is the Nine-turn Golden Elixir.

It turned out to be the auxiliary material used by the Taoist master in red to make elixirs.

Who is the master of this Taoist boy in red?

Is this the same person as the Taishang Laojun in the myth that I remember?

Cheng Guang was puzzled and couldn't understand, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

Now that he has obtained these Nine Transformation Golden Pills, his cultivation level can be greatly improved.

You must know that these elixirs are also very effective for strong people in the heaven and human realm.

When applied to him, it can almost be described as inhumane.

Cheng Guang put the Xuan Jade Gourd away, nodded slightly to the Taoist boy in red, and said, "Thank you, junior brother."

The Taoist boy in red shook his head and said nothing more.

Cheng Guang already wanted to leave at this time.

All the goals have been achieved, and there is no need to stay in this secret realm anymore.

The Taoist boy in red seemed to have noticed something, and his expression looked inexplicably sad.

"Senior brother, are you leaving?"

Cheng Guang nodded slightly.

The Taoist boy in red raised his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes, sobbing softly, "Senior brother has just come back and is about to leave. I have to leave Hong Yi alone. Senior brother, will you come back?"

"Or are you going to be a big liar like Master and other senior brothers and sisters, leaving Hong Yi here alone?"

Cheng Guang was deeply touched when he saw the red-clothed Taoist boy like this. This red-clothed Taoist boy was just a child, and he had been silently guarding him in this empty Tushita Palace for who knows how many years.

even……

Already dead...

Haven't found out yet that I'm dead...

How lonely is this?

Cheng Guang was silent for a moment and then said, "I'll be back."

When the Taoist boy in red heard what Cheng Guang said, his expression no longer looked sad, but instead he smiled.

"Senior brother said so, so he won't lie to Hong Yi."

"Senior brother is not a liar like Master."

"Senior brother, if you want to get the alchemy furnace, you should go quickly. When you come back, junior brother will light the fire for you."

After the red-clothed Taoist boy finished speaking, he stood quietly on the spot and waved to Cheng Guang.

Cheng Shiyuan pulled Cheng Guang at this time and whispered: "It's time to go."

Cheng Guang nodded slightly.

Cheng Shiyuan took a step forward, pulled Cheng Guang and Qin Yanqiu away, and disappeared from the spot.

After Cheng Guang's figure disappeared.

The smile on the red-clothed Taoist boy's face slowly faded, and his whole expression became lifeless.

The eyes that were originally full of spirituality and dancing with will-o'-the-wisps gradually dimmed, and he sat numbly beside the alchemy furnace, looking at the orange-red flames dancing in the furnace.

"Master, you are a big liar. You promised that as long as you practice for a hundred years, you can become someone like my senior brother..."

"But Hongyi has been burning for so many years, and you haven't come back yet."

"Hongyi doesn't want to light the fire anymore, I don't want to anymore..."

…………

The figure of Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo, appeared on the dark abyss rift. Cheng Guang and Qin Yanqiu stood beside him.

When Zhenguo Duke Cheng Shiyuan, Cheng Guang and Qin Yanqiu appeared over the canyon, the soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army who were guarding the surroundings spotted them immediately.

"The Duke is out!"

"Miss Qin is fine too!"

"Great, it's okay. No one can tell how dangerous this secret realm is. Fortunately, the Duke took action personally. If it were us, we might not be able to rescue Miss Qin."

Many soldiers discussed in low voices.

While many soldiers were talking in low voices, Qin Beifeng also immediately noticed the figure of Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo. The figure turned into a stream of light and rushed over immediately.

When he landed in front of Zhenguo Duke Cheng Shiyuan and saw Qin Yanqiu's figure, safe and sound, without any injuries, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Beifeng then turned his attention to the Zhenguo Duke Cheng Shiyuan. When he saw the Zhenguo Duke Cheng Shiyuan and Cheng Guang wearing strange robes, he was stunned for a moment.

But he didn't think too much and bowed respectfully to Cheng Shiyuan.

"Thank you, Duke. If the Duke hadn't taken action, I really don't know what accidents would have happened to my little girl."

After hearing Qin Beifeng's words, Cheng Shiyuan felt his face blush slightly.

He waved his hand.

"I didn't have much effect this time. It all depends on my grandson's contribution."

As soon as Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo, said these words, he almost burned Qin Beifeng's cup.

He couldn't understand what entering the secret realm to save his daughter Qin Yanqiu had to do with Cheng Guang.

In Qin Beifeng's opinion, Cheng Guang followed Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo, into the secret realm, and at most he could join in the fun. He could not play any other role and could not help at all.

Although Qin Beifeng did not quite understand what Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo, meant by this, he still bowed to Cheng Guang.

"Thank you, Prince."

Cheng Guang nodded slightly in response.

Qin Beifeng pulled Qin Yanqiu over and looked at his daughter's pale face. He originally wanted to preach a few words, but he could not say anything harsh.

"Yanqiu, you should have a good rest in the city for a while during this period of time. Don't come to the battlefield of the boundary. You are about to get married with His Royal Highness the Prince. You should concentrate."

Qin Yanqiu frowned slightly and wanted to refute, but under the gaze of Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo, and Cheng Guang, he could not say anything.

The embarrassing scene just now was seen by her future husband. Qin Yanqiu felt that her reputation was almost ruined.

If the conditions had not allowed it, Qin Yanqiu would really want to find a hole to crawl into.

Cheng Shiyuan lowered his eyes and looked at the time and space rift in the canyon, which was slowly fluctuating and gradually disappearing, and he was still frightened.

"This secret realm is not simple, grandson, thanks to you this time. If it weren't for you, even if I could bring you back, I might not be able to save Yanqiu."

"Let's go back first. I have to check the information to see what's going on."

After Cheng Shiyuan said this, he pulled Cheng Guang and rushed towards Zhenbei City in one step.

However, in a breath, the figures of Cheng Shiyuan and Cheng Guang disappeared from the spot.

Qin Beifeng, who stayed in the original place, heard Cheng Shiyuan's words before he left, and his majestic eyes were slightly stunned.

Why did the Duke say this again?

Is this secret realm really related to the prince?

Did the prince make a lot of contributions in it?

Qin Beifeng looked at his daughter and asked his doubts.

Qin Yanqiu was also puzzled by Qin Beifeng's doubts.

After all, she still felt like she was dreaming about everything that happened in the secret realm.

However, she could also feel that the red-clothed Taoist boy respected Cheng Guang very much, but didn't care much about Cheng Shiyuan in the Heaven Realm.

Although Qin Yanqiu didn't know the reason, she could think of it.

The fact that they didn't have any conflict with the red-clothed Taoist boy this time and were able to come out of the secret realm safely and without any waves really had a lot to do with Cheng Guang.

"Dad, this time it's really thanks to the prince."

Qin Yanqiu breathed a sigh of relief and spoke slowly.

Qin Beifeng heard his daughter say this, and finally confirmed that the prince must have made a lot of efforts in this secret realm.

After listening to Qin Yanqiu's story about the experience in the secret realm, when he heard the red-clothed Taoist boy appear, his eyes couldn't help but shrink for a while, and he couldn't help but feel a little scared.

If the prince hadn't arrived at this time, the Duke alone might not have been able to save Qin Yanqiu from the strange red-clothed Taoist boy.

"No, I have to thank the Duke and the prince after I go back."

After Qin Beifeng said this, he cast his eyes on Qin Yanqiu. Looking at the silver moon armor Qin Yanqiu was wearing, he felt a headache.

"Yanqiu, when you go back, take off your armor and change into clothes that other normal women wear."

"Just now, as a father, I observed that the expression of the prince looking at you is not much different from that of looking at a piece of pork. How can you make the prince's heart move like this?"

"You are going to get married soon. If the prince is not satisfied with you, you will be unpopular in the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion, and you will suffer in the future."

Qin Yanqiu's expression did not change much after hearing this, but she said indifferently: "Dad, I don't care. Anyway, even if I get married, I can't go to the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion to be a lady of a noble family."

Qin Beifeng frowned slightly and moved his lips. His family knows his own affairs. Qin Yanqiu is destined to take over his position in the future and be independent in this Northern Expedition Army. It is impossible for her to leave.

So he didn't say anything in the end, but just sighed.

How could my daughter please the prince with such a look? If the prince marries a few more concubines in the future, there might not be a place for my daughter in the Zhenguo Mansion.

Qin Beifeng was worried and took Qin Yanqiu and a group of soldiers back to Zhenbei City.

Along the way, Qin Beifeng looked at Qin Yanqiu from time to time, wanting to say something, but every time the words came to his lips, he would swallow them again.

In the end, he couldn't say anything.

——The sorrow from the old father.

…………

Cheng Guang was taken back to the Zhenguo Mansion in the center of Zhenbei City by Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo.

The Zhenguo Mansion is much simpler than the Zhenguo Mansion in Kyoto. There are not many flowers, trees, rockery and flowing water decorations. Most of them only have some necessities of life.

Although Cheng Guang has not been to Zhenbei City many times, his room is still kept in the Zhenguo Mansion in Zhenbei City all year round.

Perhaps Cheng Guang will soon marry Qin Yanqiu in Zhenbei City, so people have decorated the Zhenguo Mansion with wedding characters and hung red lanterns.

There is a festive atmosphere inside and outside.

"Grandson, you should rest well. I will take care of the wedding. You can rest at ease. I will call you when the wedding comes. You don't have to worry about other things."

Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo, brought Cheng Guang into the room, gave a brief warning, and then turned around and left.

He has a lot to do at this time.

In addition to helping Cheng Guang arrange his marriage, he also had to investigate who the Taoist boy in red was in the secret realm.

And why Cheng Guang asked him to wear slightly weird clothes so that he could avoid the hostility of the Taoist boy in red.

What did this slightly weird outfit symbolize? He had to go to Haosheng to find out.

It would be okay to ask Cheng Guang directly, which would save a lot of trouble. However, the majesty of his elders and his grandfather's sense of reserve made it impossible for him to ask questions without shame for the time being.

Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo, planned to ask his grandson what was going on when he really couldn't find out.

Zhenguo Gong Cheng Shiyuan left.

Qingluan walked over slowly. She had already helped Cheng Guang pack away the bedding and everything else, and said hello to Cheng Guang.

"Qingluan, I want to have a training session. I have nothing to do. Don't let anyone come and disturb me."

Cheng Guang said.

Qingluan nodded lightly, without asking any further questions, and walked out slowly, closing the door behind him.

After Qingluan closed the door, Cheng Guang couldn't wait to take out the mysterious jade gourd from the jade ring in storage.

This mysterious jade gourd is the biggest thing Cheng Guang has packed up during his trip to the secret realm, apart from saving Qin Yanqiu.

Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo, could probably feel that it was not easy for Cheng Guang to obtain the elixir in this mysterious jade gourd, but he did not ask or say much.

Anyway, it was his grandson who got something. No matter how good it was, he would only be happy for Cheng Guang and not be greedy.

Cheng Guang took out the Xuan Jade Gourd, and a faint fragrance that was unique to the elixir filled the room.

Cheng Guang just took a whiff, and his cultivation level improved slightly.

He couldn't wait to open the mysterious jade gourd, and golden light emerged from it.

Cheng Guang looked into the Xuanyu gourd.

There are about ten pills in this mysterious jade gourd.

The elixir is full and golden, and its surface is covered with lines. If you count it carefully, it has nine layers.

Cheng Guang poured out a Nine-turn Golden Pill, slowly put it into his mouth, and then put the Xuan Jade Gourd away again.

Cheng Guangdie started practicing on his knees.

The Nine-turn Golden Pill that had just been taken into his mouth quickly melted into a warm current and poured into his abdomen not long after the entrance.

The vitality in the surrounding heaven and earth seemed to sense some kind of call.

As if he didn't need money, he rushed towards Cheng Guang.

Cheng Guang didn't even need to run the Divine Emperor Cultivation Method. The energy of heaven and earth roared towards him and poured into his body.

At the same time.

Some information that had never happened before appeared in Cheng Guang's mind.

The level of martial arts cultivation that had just broken through the magical power realm was rising rapidly at this time.

The magical mark is growing rapidly and becoming perfect.

At the same time, his spiritual practice was also growing rapidly.

The soul instantly became solid.

Inexplicable magical marks began to appear on the pure and flawless soul.

Just a moment.

Cheng Guang felt that his soul was more in tune with the world.

Fifth level of spiritual path, destiny realm!

In addition, a disturbance originating from the depths of the bloodline was faintly heard.

Cheng Guang's eyes were slightly startled, a little dazed.

"This is... bloodline magical power..."

Cheng Guang reacted.

His eyes showed joy.

I just said how could I not awaken my bloodline magical power!

Turns out you were waiting for me here!
