The first stinger
As the call approached, Lan Di jumped down from the fairy cloud and flashed into the depths of the dense forest. After a moment, a man was covered in blood and was tightly wrapped by two people who were wearing a radiant costume and covered his head and his face with only his eyes exposed. His body was unable to dodge and was cut out by four short blades one after another.
The blood sprinkled all over the ground.
Emperor Lan didn't expect that someone would dare to do such a bad thing in the Xuanmen Fairyland so unrestrainedly? Anger arose, and shouted loudly, "The evil spirit is so brave!" He pointed his hands into a sword, and quickly poked out from the sleeve of the Taoist robe, attacking the two of them.
As soon as he took action, the surrounding scenery changed suddenly, the shape of the trees was distorted, the branches and leaves turned into monster hands, and they were whipped overwhelmed. The ground under his feet was undulating violently like waves. The monsters formed by the mixture of the earth appeared instantly like spring bamboo shoots, and they roared and rushed over.
The two white lights of the sky-breaking swords that took action penetrated the bodies of the two men in black, but there was no resistance. The man who was covered in blood saw someone coming to save him, and his will that had been barely supported suddenly relaxed and fell down softly, and was snatched in his arms.
Knowing that the other party had set up a formation around it, he sneered, "You dare to fiddle with the secret tricks of the carving insects in the Xuanmen!" While speaking, he hugged the seriously injured person with one hand, his feet were mysterious steps, and his sword fingers with the other hand drew out the flying sword energy of the sky to smash and shatter the stone demon tree spirits surrounding him.
Immediately, strange lights appeared one after another wherever their feet were stepped on, forming a magic array. After a violent fluctuation of energy, the surrounding scenes quickly twisted and changed, returning to normal. However, the figures of the two men in black were gone around. Lan Di shouted coldly and said, "Where can you escape!"
The magic circle set up brightly, and thousands of white lights of the flying sword energy of the sky were rapidly spreading in all directions. Two painful hums came from the air ten feet away from the ground. Lan Emperor waved his cuffs and drew the garden quickly, and the sword energy that had originally scattered was locked and made a sound. The large space was continuously flying out of the air.
A man in black showed signs. When he was holding a magic bead in his right hand and was about to push it out, a black blade cut off from his back, mercilessly cutting off one of his arms. Blood was blooming on both feet and thighs at the same time, and he screamed and fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Lan Emperor put away his sword energy and removed the formation. He saw a figure standing behind the seriously injured person, shaking the throat of another man in black with one hand, but wasn't it just a sensation? She looked calm and she seemed to have seen bloody Prajna. She put away the short blade with nothing, and said softly, "You use the formation to go back first. If you know that it's not good to be in such a place today, I will take them to the Watch Palace."
After saying that, he walked closer to check the wounds of the bloody man and said, "This person is still saved."
When Lan Emperor heard this, he looked up at the sky and shook his head and said, "No, it's almost time for morning class, so it can be said that he is getting up early to practice."
Zhao Ke insisted, "Go, this person has no identity, and now you are in trouble. If you undoubtedly commit an unnecessary crime again, wouldn't it be unfair?"
Lan Di thought to himself that those who dare to do such evil things in Xuanmen may have nothing to do with Tianxuan Hall. He nodded and agreed immediately. When he wanted to set up a teleportation formation for Zhao to facilitate the arrival of the Palace of Repentance, she stopped him and said, "The talisman is so precious and rare, it is too wasteful to use such a small matter. I just take them back directly. This person will not be able to treat them for a while in the evening."
He couldn't help but feel silent when he heard this, thinking that she was really like a housekeeper, but no longer insisted. He used a talisman to quickly gather a large amount of heaven and earth true energy needed for the teleportation array, and disappeared in the white light.
Seeing that he was leaving, Zhao also drove the fairy clouds to take the three of them and flew away.
When Emperor Lan returned to his residence, Tian Xuanyun was sitting on her own. Seeing a lot of blood on his clothes, she immediately threw the words she wanted to say out of the sky and said anxiously, "Is anyone going to kill you?"
Seeing her care so much, Lan Di didn't want to make trouble like an enemy who was not meeting him. He immediately calmly said the story. Tian Xuanyun then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Why don't you send the injured person to treatment in person?"
He didn't hide it, and said with a smile, "I'm not embarrassed if I'm so far away on my wedding night?"
When Tian Xuanyun heard what he said, she was a little stunned for a moment, then her expression calmed down and she asked softly, "Did you really fall into the Tianhu's soul-lossing curse?"
"really."
"She is really as attractive as the rumors?"
"I'm afraid it's more attractive than rumors. I can't even see her appearance clearly. It's so powerful with just one look." Lan Di didn't mean to lose a lot, but the truth and feelings were indeed the case.
Tian Xuanyun still said a little unbelievable, "But you don't look like you at all, otherwise how could I misunderstand you earlier? I heard that I had hit the Soul-loss curse, and at first they all looked dumbfounded and muttered to themselves, looking demented, so I got the name Soul-loss."
Lan Emperor thought that he had experienced so much inhuman hardship since childhood. If his willpower was as fragile as an ordinary immortal in the end, wouldn’t it be in vain to suffer so much suffering in the past? He said, “Master said that I had extraordinary will. Although I was hit by this mantra, I still hope to break it, and the impact I was not as deep as others.”
Tian Xuanyun remained silent when she heard this, but she helped to change his outer robe in her hand. She also held the blood-stained clothes to purify and remove the filth.
After a while, he finally said, "If you had made it clear, I wouldn't have misunderstood you. Although you can't fully accept that you suddenly have more wife, this matter is a foregone conclusion, and you should understand why I am like this. In the long years, you and I will face it together. Regardless of whether the soul-lossing curse can be good, I hope you can try to accept it. This requirement is too high?"
Of course, this requirement is not too high, but despite thinking so, he thought about it carefully for a moment. Finally, he decided to agree to this proposal. The matter between the two was indeed a foregone conclusion. If they always face each other like enemies in the future, then the years ahead would be uncomfortable to think about. If she really was Tian Xuanyun, the years ahead would prove that if not, there would always be a day of revealing the situation.
In any case, before that day comes, it is better to respect each other and be harmonious than to hate each other when they meet and hate each other.
"Well, I promise you. But their habits still need to be adjusted and need to be adapted slowly."
The five simple words transformed Tian Xuanyun's unhappiness, making her face full of knowing smiles. Therefore, she gave up the idea of pursuing Zhao's rude behavior and said with a smile, "Are you referring to Dugu Zhao? As long as you and her have already decided to live for life, I can try to accept her strange style."
Seeing that it was not smiling, Landi smiled and said, "I had this idea in the past, but I was sent to the Palace of Repentance before I could finish it. Now I have just come out and become a family member."
Tian Xuanyun raised her hand and squeezed him gently, and said softly, "She is actually your confidant assistant, right? She is always by your side to protect you from your safety?"
Lan Di felt funny, but she was so happy that she misunderstood. Since this conflict was missing, there was no need to explain it clearly. She immediately nodded seriously and said, "Well, I'm a confidant. This is a huge secret, and you must not let the third party know it."
Tian Xuanyun took it seriously and made a solemn promise, saying, "I understand. Just like the father emperor, in order to prevent all kinds of accidents, there must be some confidant helpers around her at all times."
Only then did Emperor Lan understand why she could accept it so easily. It turned out that such a person was always hidden by Emperor Tianxuan. But it was strange that why the dignified Xuanmen leader was still so careful?
She sighed sadly, but still explained patiently.
It turns out that in the realm of Tianxuan Immortal, not to mention the dignified Emperor Tianxuan, the powerful God-like Taishang Zhenzun in time, I don’t know how many assassinations have been encountered over the long years. Most of these assassins come from the world, and only very few come from the inside of Xuanmen. The messengers behind them are so strange that it is difficult to find out one by one.
But in terms of past records, partly comes from the demonic instructions of the demons in the Demon Sect, but more of them come from the rich businessmen in the secular world or the lord of a certain city. This is basically the reason why many local city lords will be suddenly replaced.
Emperor Lan couldn't understand it and couldn't help asking, "The existence of the Tianxuan Immortal Sect has allowed the secular people to have enough food and clothing. Many secular disciples under the sect have traveled all over the place to eliminate demons and protect the way for many years, so that the secular people can avoid being harmed by all kinds of evil demons. Why do they still do this?"
Tian Xuanyun sat down with Landi gently holding her hands. The latter felt very unnatural, but she didn't pull it back. She listened carefully to her and told her the reason.
One is revenge. In the secular world, eliminating evil and helping others are often harmful. Many families are imprisoned for committing evil, which leads to difficulties in life. Old people often feel depressed and their sudden changes in life will soon pass away.
In this way, many young and ignorant secular people will inevitably regard the object of resentment as the Xuanmen itself since childhood. After these people grow up, they either practice on their own to take revenge, or hire assassination masters in the secular world to help them take revenge with a lot of money.
The scope of management of Xuanmen is so large and the population is so large. I don’t know how much this kind of hatred will be buried in just one year. This situation is simply impossible to eliminate. How can people in the secular world look at things as thoroughly and clearly like Xuanmen immortals?
Resentment is resentment. You will not easily abandon your hatred for the sake of the beauty of the environment of sentient beings, and most of you will not even think of so much.
In addition to this main component of the person who came here to try to assassinate, there were several commands of the city lords and wealthy businessmen who were creating classes in the secular world.
Due to their secular interests and power, it is inevitable that some people will gradually develop ambitions and try to gain more dominance in other cities and places. However, Tianxuan Gate will never allow it. If you want to achieve your goal, unless it collapses or causes chaos in Tianxuan Gate, assassination of Tianxuan Emperor and the Supreme True Lord is naturally a must.
Seeing Lan Emperor looking meditative, Tian Xuanyun reminded, "You must be careful too. Since the catastrophe a hundred years ago, the immortal sects have had to recover their vitality as soon as possible, and each has lowered the conditions for recruiting disciples. Although the number of disciples has increased rapidly, many profits that are closely related to the world have been brought in together.
Many Xuanmen disciples who have come to this place have certain power in the secular world. They come here to practice and study not to pursue eternal ways of heaven, nor to eliminate demons and protect sentient beings. They just increase their reputation for secular families, to gain access to immortality, and to make them more convenient to gain benefits in the secular world.
Just say that the person you saved this morning is definitely not a vendetta, but it must be the cause of the fellow disciples who are bribed by the killers in the secular world. The two families have interests in the secular world. Because they are both in the Xuanmen, the struggles in the secular world are difficult to separate and they all rely on. Therefore, this is the worst way to get rid of him, so his family has no support in the secular world, and are at a disadvantage in the struggle.
Now that you are the senior brother of the Wangqing Sect, you will not only be involved in the sect, but you may also accidentally become a thorn in others' eyes outside the sect, and you will inevitably encounter sudden disasters in the future. You must be careful everywhere."
When Emperor Lan heard this, he couldn't help but be silent. He didn't have to ask the secular people how to know the way to come in. He still understood the truth that one person knew about it often. He just suddenly remembered Fairy Beiming, and began to feel a little sympathy for her, but also felt sad for her.
I remember the story of Master, what the king once said to him, a peaceful world does not need gods, and people cannot tolerate Gods who dominate their destiny. Only in the chaos and turmoil do they need and pray for God’s protection.
