fairy cage.

Chapter 695: Jump out and see him off in person
Yu Lie's arrival caused an even stronger sense of coldness.

As it swept through, all the guests and ladies in the red building were frightened to the point of pissing their pants and running out in panic, which became a major spectacle in Heishui Town that day.

After a long while, the chill that permeated the Red Mansion finally subsided and was no longer as creepy as before.

But even so, the guests and ladies outside the building still did not dare to step in, as they were still frightened.

Some curious people immediately asked what happened inside the building.

Although most people were stunned and had no idea what was going on, there were still some people who noticed the coldness in the building. It was a young female Taoist priest who appeared after she walked in.

Immediately someone muttered, "Damn it, they caught her cheating right here. She deserves it for not being able to keep an eye on the man."

However, as soon as that person muttered a few words, the people around him immediately covered his mouth with their hands and feet. Someone even picked up a pile of dog shit from the ground and stuffed it into that person's mouth.

"Hush! You don't want to die, but we do."

Although no one knew the identity of that woman, her murderous intent was so strong and she acted so unscrupulously in the town. She must have at least cultivated spiritual consciousness and was a Taoist official, or even the legendary Taoist priest!

And now in the Red Mansion.

Yu Lie's face was filled with shame, and he also lowered his head and eyes, not daring to look up at the female Taoist.

This female Taoist was none other than Zi Zhuzi.

Zi Zhuzi had already severely reprimanded the two of them, but she couldn't help but sneer as she smelled the obscene air in the room and looked at the messy scene in the room:
"The palace is busy, but you two seem to be enjoying yourself, quite leisurely and elegant.

But you two should at least choose a good place. Why do you have to seek happiness in such a rural place? Aren't you afraid of getting dirty or getting sick?"

When Heishuizi saw Yu Lie beside him, he seemed to not want to be looked down upon by Yu Lie, so he coughed lightly and said,
"Junior sister, you are joking. We are all in the Dancheng stage. If you want to pollute our bodies, your body must be extremely poisonous."

"Humph!" Zi Zhuzi raised his eyebrows and shouted:

"Hei Shuizi, you are quite arrogant."

Heishuizi immediately closed his mouth and even his eyes, intending to let Zizhuzi scold him and leave it at that.

But at this time, Yu Lie beside him couldn't help but coughed lightly: "Master Zi, please understand, I have not been hanging around here, I just came back."

"Hey, hey!" Heishuizi couldn't help it this time. His Taoist name was Heishui, not Heiguo, and he immediately teased:

"You're the one having the most fun!
Tsk, you are right, I am old and frail, how can I be as vigorous as you!"

Suddenly, a chill rose from Zi Zhuzi's body again, and white threads shuttled back and forth around her.

Zi Zhuzi spoke word by word: "You two, you seem to be having a lot of fun."

Heishuizi's face suddenly changed. He stopped standing there and jumped up, stretched out his two hairy legs, and strode out of the red building.

As he charged, he shouted:
"Hey! The woman said, a man lives between heaven and earth, so what's wrong with being happy?"

Heishuizi still had some conscience, and called out to Yu Lie: "Idiot! If you are beaten with a small stick, you will take it, but if you are beaten with a big stick, you will run away. Why are you still standing there? Run."

But this conscience is not much, just a little.

Before he could finish his words, Heishuizi had already disappeared.

Facing Zi Zhuzi who had unleashed all his magical powers, Yu Lie smiled bitterly, bowed, and did not run away.

What followed was another round of scolding, ridicule, and accusations, and the chill in the Red Mansion finally settled down again.

"What a bad old man! How dare you lead Le'er astray."

Zi Zhuzi was still indignant, gritting his teeth and saying, "When I find him, I will definitely break one of his legs!"

Yu Lie stood in front of her and couldn't help but touch his cheek, wisely remaining calm.

After Zi Zhuzi finally calmed down, Yu Lie walked up to him, asked him about his well-being, and asked him how he got here and what had happened in the Immortal Palace or the Qian Palace.

What surprised Yu Lie was that Zi Zhuzi's visit was not due to any matter concerning the two palaces, but he simply came to look for Yu Lie.

Zizhuzi asked doubtfully:

"By the way, where is Tie Jianlan? She came all the way here to look for you. Why haven't I seen her in sight for so long?"

Yu Lie's expression changed slightly when he heard that. He waved his hand and numerous formations enveloped the two of them. The entire red building was also submerged in heavy fog, completely isolating the inside from the outside.

"Master Zi, how many people in the palace know that Tie Jianlan came to see me?" Yu Lie asked with a frown.

When Zizhuzi heard this, she restrained her previous emotions, pondered for a moment, and answered affirmatively:

"No one outside knows this. This woman only came to see me."

Yu Lie breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon he heard Zi Zhuzi's cold snort again: "As I expected, this woman came to find you, hiding a secret that cannot be revealed."

There was murderous intent in her voice. She said:
"Does this woman want to use the matter of Shi Hanzi to threaten you? If so, I will come today to clean up the mess and kill this guy and Shi Hanzi together!"

When Yu Lie heard the other party's cold words, he not only did not feel cold, but felt warm both physically and mentally.

"So the reason Master Zi came here is because he cares about me." Yu Lie thought to himself.

He shook his head and quickly answered Zi Zhuzi's question.

Seeing this, Zi Zhuzi's cold expression disappeared, replaced by a look of deep doubt.

Yu Lie pondered for a moment, but did not reveal any more information. Instead, he looked at Zi Zhuzi seriously and warned:
"Don't tell anyone about Tie Jianlan's visit to me, not even Taoist Hei Shuizi!"

In order to prevent Zi Zhuzi from thinking that Yu Lie was trying to scare him because of the absurd incident just now, Yu Lie added directly: "This matter is of great importance and concerns our lives and property. Master Zi must not let down your guard."

His words made Zi Zhuzi even more confused and he hesitated to speak.

The girl couldn't suppress her curiosity after all, and whispered to Yu Lie: "Lie'er, what on earth happened to you that even your master doesn't want to tell you..."

Yu Lie still frowned and did not give in.

Zi Zhuzi had no choice but to say, "If you really don't want to reveal it, is there anything I can help you with? Just tell me."

As she spoke, she walked forward, held Yu Lie's hand, and stared at him closely with a gentle gaze.

Yu Lie was surrounded by Zi Zhuzi's sincere love and smelled the unique fragrance on Zi Zhuzi's body. He couldn't help but feel his heart beating and a look of hesitation appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Zi Zhuzi simply pulled Yu Lie into his arms and hugged him.

She whispered as if she was coaxing a child:
"Don't worry. Although you are older, as long as I am your master, I will always be your support. Just be frank, even if it means taking my life, it is fine.

At worst, you can wait until you become an immortal and then rescue me from the cycle of reincarnation."

Reincarnation is in vain for beings below the level of immortals.

What Zizhuzi said was not just his deep love, but a promise of life and death.

For a moment, Yu Lie seemed to be back on Purple Mountain, and the scene when he and this girl were together day and night. But at that time, the relationship between the two of them did not seem to be as passionate and direct as it is now.

"Perhaps it's because of our reunion after a long separation, or perhaps it's because of this turmoil." Yu Lie thought secretly in his heart.

However, Zi Zhuzi's actions made him completely give up the idea of ​​telling the other party the truth about the Xuanpin Gate, the Great Heavenly Venerable, and so on.

For matters of such importance, the more Zi Zhuzi knew, the greater the risk.

Yu Lie hesitated for a moment and just said:
"To be honest with Master Zi, I am now faced with two choices. I really don't know which one I should believe. If I make the wrong choice, the consequences will be unpredictable."

Seeing that Yu Lie was willing to open up a little, Zi Zhuzi was already satisfied and joked:

"Could it be that you have let down two women again, and they are forcing you to make a choice?"

Yu Lie smiled bitterly and simply replied: "Then Master Zi will take it as such."

He paused and said:

"But there are not two, but one. Some say she is good, some say she is bad. I have no way to judge and it is difficult to make a decision.

Master Zi, tell me, should I believe she is good or bad? "

When Zi Zhuzi heard this, her beautiful eyebrows raised involuntarily, feeling jealous. However, when she saw the serious look in Yu Lie's eyes, she immediately became alert and realized that what Yu Lie was talking about was not a love affair, but a serious matter.

After she pondered for a moment, she said, "These two statements were made by someone who has a certain relationship with the other party. And what is the other party's attitude?

What will it cost you to believe her good words, and what will it cost you to believe her bad words? "

Yu Liedao:
"Good words are spoken by the person herself. Bad words are spoken by her enemy.

If I believe her, I will certainly enjoy the good fortune, but I may suffer trouble in the future, and I may be afraid of her and feel quite uncomfortable.

If I believe her bad words... all my efforts will be in vain. That woman may even take revenge on me, ruin my reputation, and even my relatives and friends may suffer harm."

Zi Zhuzi immediately had the answer in her heart, but she frowned and asked again:

"If this woman had never appeared before you, would you be disappointed, relieved, or both?"

This question hits the nail on the head.

Yu Lie raised his eyelids slightly, and after pondering for a while, he said accurately:

"Wei Yi heaved a sigh of relief."

Now it was Zizhuzi's turn to breathe a sigh of relief. She chuckled and replied:

"In that case, you don't need to look at it from the perspective of whether the woman is good or bad. Think about it from your own perspective. While there is still a chance to get away from her, you should get away from her as soon as possible."

As if she was afraid that Yu Lie didn’t understand, she added:

"If you don't make a decision when you should, you will suffer the consequences. This kind of woman is not someone you can control, you should avoid her like a tiger.

There are so many women in the world, and you haven't let them down yet if you haven't married them, so why should you limit yourself to one corner?

And jump out!"

Boom.

Zi Zhuzi's words "get out of it" made Yu Lie's thoughts race. He felt a buzzing in his head and his thoughts suddenly became clear.

The Great Heavenly Venerable whom he just mentioned was the prototype of that woman.

All these benefits and concerns are exactly the possibilities and influences that arise between Yu Lie's belief in the Great Heavenly Venerable and his belief in Shi Hanzi.

Yu Lie murmured:

"Whether you believe in me or not is not the most important thing to me.

Whether you are there or not is the most important thing!"

After this was revealed, his thoughts suddenly became clear.

He is a person of the immortal way, and the most important thing in the immortal way is to be free and unfettered. Now the Great Celestial Venerable first used the position of the Son of Heaven to entrap him, and then set up a net of heaven and earth to almost catch him and the Immortal Palace that caused chaos, and then entrapped him again with the Celestial Venerable's followers.

If he had no choice, Yu Lie would just accept his fate.

But now there is an opportunity to escape from this situation, which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. What he should do is to seize it and leave.

Yu Lie sighed in his heart:
“Besides, although we, the immortals, must be brave and diligent, why should we rush into the fire like moths?

I have just formed my elixir not long ago, so it is difficult for me to face such a situation. Once I have completed my cultivation, I will be able to face it with a true immortal, earthly immortal, or even a celestial immortal of the same level, and I will be much more relaxed!"

Thinking of this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

He, Yu Lie, is a first-grade immortal golden elixir, and he also has good fortune on his side. What he lacks now is only time!

In an instant, Yu Lie had a complete answer in his heart.

That is to seize the opportunity of the Xuanpin Gate, escape from the mountain and sea world, and escape into the void.

After entering the void, no one will know his origins, and he can change into a thousand forms. Then he can travel on his own and grow steadily.

In the Red Mansion, Yu Lie looked around and realized that he was now in Heishui Town and that Heishuizi had just slipped away.

He immediately remembered what Hei Shuizi had said when he was building his foundation, and couldn't help but sneer and murmur:
"I seek my own way, what power does the emperor have over me?"

In front of Yu Lie, Zi Zhuzi watched Yu Lie's expression changing unpredictably. She frowned, worried whether what she had just said was right or wrong.

Seeing that Yu Lie had calmed down a bit and started talking, Zi Zhuzi called out, "Lie'er, Lie'er..."

Yu Lie raised his head and met Zi Zhuzi's extremely caring gaze, and his heart skipped a beat.

If he left this time, what would be left behind would be Zizhuzi, Heishuizi, Huoluan Immortal Palace, Qianzhou Dao Palace, and more than a hundred bloodline descendants in Heishui Town. This was also one of the key points that Yu Lie had been struggling with before.

Yu Lie immediately thought: "Why not take Master Zi and the others away as well?"

He has the Purple Palace, so this is feasible.

But soon, this idea was rejected by Yu Lie.

Not to mention Zi Zhuzi and the others, all of whom possessed Dao talismans, their whereabouts were like candlelight in the night to the Mountain and Sea Realm. If they were accidentally led into the ancient cultivation camp, they would be in a bigger fire pit!

Yu Lie has great magic power and can transform into any number of forms. He can even deceive the immortals, but Zi Zhuzi and others have no way of doing it.

This time when I leave for the mountains and seas, the best way for me is to leave alone.

Moreover, Yu Lie did not intend to honestly cross the Xuanpin Gate. The risk would be extremely great. He was willing to risk his own life, but others might not be willing or it might not be worth it.

Coming back to his senses, Yu Lie looked at Zi Zhuzi's beautiful face and couldn't help asking again:
"Master, if I escape, what will you do?"

When Zi Zhuzi heard this, she wanted to chuckle in response, but before she could say anything, she finally tasted a clue from Yu Lie's words.

Zi Zhuzi suddenly thought of the day a few days later, when Tianzun would accept Yu Lie as his disciple. In ancient times, literati often used poems about love to express the favor of the emperor. Yu Lie just bluntly said the word "imperial power".

Her expression slowly changed. Although it was still blurry, she understood what Yu Lie wanted to do!

"You..." Zizhuzi hesitated and said with difficulty:

"Lie Er, are you going on a long journey again?"

Yu Lie nodded seriously.

Now it was Zi Zhuzi's turn to hesitate. She lowered her eyes, then raised them again, and lowered them again, with a thousand thoughts in her mind.

Suddenly, Zizhuzi seemed to have thought of something and smiled.

She leaned over to Yu Lie's ear and whispered:

"Then, Master, I will personally see you off today, okay?"

A tingling sensation suddenly crept up from Yu Lie's ears, leaving him stunned.
