Fengyunlu

Bai Ximo didn't say much, as he knew clearly in his heart that the other party's words were just excuses, and the real situation was definitely not like that. Moreover, the boy's evasive eyes showed that there was something fishy going on, and he must be hiding some unspeakable secret, possibly related to some shady plot.

Bai Ximo listened patiently for a moment, then pretended to walk away before sneaking back in. He was draped in a purple cloud robe and used a technique to conceal his presence, making him completely invisible to the ordinary disciples. In this way, Bai Ximo, armed with his divine weapon, deftly circumvented the formation and ultimately arrived at Fairy Ji Yao's side courtyard.

At that moment, Bai Ximo felt a particularly strong sense of turmoil. This was where the chaos of Yin and Yang Qi began. The guards around the side courtyard were particularly strict, each one in high spirits and not at all careless. It was obvious that they were guarding something important.

Although Bai Ximo had reached the Heavenly Stage, he lacked a Primordial Spirit. He was eager to use his divine sense to investigate. While his spiritual awareness could glimpse some situations, it was limited after all. If he accidentally left a trace, he would be discovered immediately. If he didn't understand everything and attacked without knowing why, it would be fine if he hit the right person, but if he wrongly accused a good person, it would be a huge joke.

Bai Ximo thought about it over and over, but still had no idea. Just as he was getting worried, the middle-aged Taoist priest came into the courtyard. As soon as he came in, he seemed to notice something, frowned, and glanced in Bai Ximo's direction.

Bai Ximo was startled, thinking he had been discovered. Just as he was about to take action, the half-grown Taoist priest turned away and muttered to himself something like "Be too careful." Bai Ximo knew he was fine, so he continued to hide in the dark, hoping to see what secrets the courtyard held.

Suddenly, the middle-aged Taoist priest pushed open the door and entered the room, and without saying a word, they started arguing. From the room, they could only hear a burst of scolding, and occasionally a woman's voice, which sounded like she was trying to defend herself. Bai Ximo listened for a long time before finally understanding the general situation.

It turned out that the woman should have had a breakthrough tonight, and logically she should have had the corresponding skills to follow up, but the old Taoist refused to give it to her, saying that the skills were special and required a solid foundation and a tempered state of mind.

Of course Bai Ximo didn't believe these words. He could feel that the Yin and Yang Qi within a radius of hundreds of miles were already turbulent, especially the Taiyin Qi. It was as excited as a child who had left home and found his way home after being lost. Before his eyes was the long-lost light.

This phenomenon was so special that Bai Ximo guessed correctly that the woman in the room must have a special physique, and most likely a feminine type, otherwise the Taiyin Qi would not be so excited.

However, Bai Ximo was puzzled as to why such a great talent would be wasted, but he also considered some possible reasons. The woman had a unique physique, yet they refused to let her cultivate, likely because they feared she would advance too quickly, becoming difficult to control or do anything about. And Bai Ximo sensed that the woman's breakthrough tonight would likely lead to the Dongxuan realm.

In this case, preventing her from advancing in realm, yet allowing her to achieve a small amount of success, and only remaining at the Phoenix Initial Realm, the woman's physique born during the Yin period, these two points basically match. Bai Ximo thought of his brother Bai Xibo and Feng Wanli and the other four who were investigating this matter at the time, and a hint of hostility flashed in his eyes. Although he didn't know where the other women were imprisoned, he knew that one of them was definitely in the room before him.

Bai Ximo was immediately enraged. Saving every last one he could was better than watching them suffer. So, his purple cloud robe rustled, and he swung his Qingping Sword. A Nine Phoenix Courting Ceremony instantly killed several disciples on duty, and even shattered the door with a single strike.

The heavenly level of cultivation suddenly erupted. The half-grown Taoist in the house thought that a powerful enemy was attacking and was about to escape. He glanced and saw Bai Ximo, but saw that there was no one beside him. The two had similar levels of cultivation. He immediately disappeared from his panic and showed a hint of ruthlessness on his face.

Bai Ximo smiled softly, and the two of them immediately started fighting after they had a disagreement. Fairy Ji Yao saw Bai Ximo's extraordinary bravery in the house and knew that she had met a savior, but she also understood that this was a place for outsiders after all, and if another expert came, Bai Ximo would be outnumbered and it would be useless. So she told Bai Ximo not to fight any longer, as long as he could rescue her sister.

Bai Ximo took a closer look during his free time and discovered two beauties hiding in the house. He pondered for a moment. Although carrying these two people would make his movements inconvenient, as a descendant of the Great Emperor, how could he stand by and watch them perish? So, he used all his skills, using his magical weapons to force the half-grown Taoist priest to the point of nearly being injured. Before the enemy reinforcements arrived, he quickly conjured a huge bundle from his purple cloud robe, wrapped up the sisters Ji Yao and Ji Long, and then fled in a flash towards the southwest.

He headed southwest, firstly, because it was close to West Kunlun. Although he didn't believe in this or that, Bai Ximo felt somewhat reassured by the Yaochi Wonderland. Secondly, these two beauties possessed extraordinary physiques. If they were brought to Yaochi, Xuan Guzi would surely be delighted to see them. Even if he didn't accept them as disciples, he would certainly protect them.

With Xuan Gu Zi's support, even the most powerful sects would have to think twice. After all, Xuan Gu Zi belonged to one of the Five Great Imperial Sects, and even the Imperial Garden had to give it some respect, not to mention the other sects. So Bai Ximo didn't think much and headed straight for Yao Chi.

However, the pursuers had already arrived, three of them at the Heavenly Rank and one at the Saint Rank, and they were determined to stop him. Bai Ximo escaped at the critical moment, but he was still unsure, so he sent a spiritual message to his brother, saying that the Liangyi Sect was behind the scenes plotting to make the Nine Sons the heir.

The moment this spiritual message was sent, the pursuers became even more anxious. The Saint-level man in the lead gritted his teeth, using his blood essence as fuel, and unleashed the Bleeding Escape technique, chasing directly to Bai Ximo's side. He fought so desperately because Bai Ximo possessed several divine weapons, each a treasure from heaven, especially the Qingping Sword, the personal divine weapon of the Cangyun Emperor, invulnerable to all attacks. Using it to kill the enemy, it was a dazzling display; when in a hurry, no one could catch up. So, seeing that he couldn't stop Bai Ximo, the Saint-level man had no choice but to use his unorthodox methods to stop him, and even severely injured him with a single blow.

Bai Ximo was truly unlucky at the time. Despite all the trouble, he used the zhenqi within his mansion and the power of his Baidi Jue true body to summon the Baidi Dharma Image. He risked his cultivation level to decline, and finally, just as the pursuers arrived, he repelled them with a single move. Then, using the Cangyun Sect's Fuyao technique, using the Qingping Sword as a vehicle, he led Ji Yao and Ji Long through the blockade and escaped again.

This time, the pursuers didn't come after him. It seemed that something serious had happened in Liangyi Sect. A spiritual message drifted in the air, and out of the corner of Bai Ximo's eye, he saw that the guys chasing him turned back helplessly, just glanced at him, and left with regret.

Afterwards, Bai Ximo, still severely injured, finally brought the Ji Yao sisters to the Yaochi Lake. Exhausted, his injuries worsened, and Xuan Guzi had someone treat him. A few days later, Bai Ximo had largely recovered and arrived at the Fairy Lake.

On the throne, Xuan Gu Zi's eyes were full of anticipation. She asked Bai Ximo if he could accept these two beauties. This idea was exactly what Bai Ximo wanted, but he didn't know what the Ji Yao sisters thought. After all, their feelings were the key.

The two sisters had been summoned, already knowing everything. They had heard a great deal during Bai Ximo's recent recuperation, realizing they now resided within one of the five most prestigious imperial sects within the Xuan Sect. The benefactor who had saved them from suffering was also a descendant of the imperial sect. With any of these two families, cultivation wouldn't be a problem, and future revenge would be easy, provided the truth was revealed and adhered to righteous principles.

However, they were grateful for Bai Ximo's life-saving grace and insisted on waiting until he was fine before making any decision. Bai Ximo understood what they meant and knew that they were planning to go back to the South Sea with him and become a disciple of Cang Yun.

That was fine. As the sect of the Great Emperor, Cangyun Sect naturally had no problem teaching two female disciples, and they also had cultivation methods suitable for them. But Bai Ximo thought carefully and felt that if he really went to Cangyun, he might end up misleading the students. After all, everyone has their own specializations. One of the sisters had the Taiyin Saint Body, and the other had the Mysterious Yin Wonder. Either of them would be the object of competition for the Xuanmen Sect, let alone both of them.

But Bai Ximo selflessly considered that the magic of the Yao Chi fairyland was magical, and the power of the moon was unique to the Xuanmen sect. Practicing here, the two sisters could achieve twice the result with half the effort. Moreover, the Yao Chi technique was more suitable for them than Cang Yun's, and it was simply tailor-made for them.

With this in mind, Bai Ximo explained the interests involved clearly, and finally advised the two of them that if they had a deep hatred, they must practice with the Yaochi fairy method to improve themselves, so that they could reach the top of the Xuanmen in the future and all their wishes would come true.

The two sisters were a little reluctant at first, but in the end they willingly accepted Yao Chi's teachings and received special instruction from Xuan Gu Zi. They knew this was a rare opportunity, their only chance to change their fate. From that moment on, their path of cultivation was destined to be extraordinary.

After seeing everything, Bai Ximo returned to the South Sea with peace of mind. However, upon arriving in Cangyun, he heard that his elder brother had already returned. Upon inquiring, he learned that the Liangyi Sect had been wiped out overnight, leaving not a single survivor. Corpses littered the ground, and an underground palace had been opened. This sudden change filled Bai Ximo with confusion and uneasiness. He knew that the Liangyi Sect was a powerful force, and that anyone who could completely destroy it overnight was no ordinary person.

The underground palace was in chaos, all the arrangements gone, but the remaining signs and some tattered cages proved Bai Ximo's spiritual information correct. The Liangyi Sect had been plotting for years to establish the Nine Sons as heirs. Most crucially, the maternal body was rescued by Bai Ximo that night before she could even grasp what was happening. Everything prepared for the Nine Sons as heirs had also vanished, stolen by someone unknown. Bai Ximo secretly rejoiced that he had prevented this evil plan from being carried out, but he also realized that a greater conspiracy might be brewing behind the scenes.

Upon hearing this news, Bai Ximo immediately relayed it to Yaochi, where Xuan Guzi promptly informed Ji Yao and Ji Long. Only then did they realize they had nearly been used as human furnaces, the Liangyi Sect's sinister plot unleashing a powerful new dimension. They began to suspect the Purple Mysterious Scripture was deeply entangled, perhaps linked to their parents, leading to the untold calamities that ultimately led to the bloodbath, leaving them and their sisters behind. Their fate had been entangled in a vast conspiracy from birth, yet they remained oblivious.

Fairy Ji Yao recalled the past, tears welling in her eyes. She gazed deeply at the woman in red before her, feeling an indescribable feeling within her. Her heart was filled with mixed emotions, a mixture of sorrow for the past and uncertainty about the future. She wondered what fate lay ahead for herself and her sister.

Losing both their parents when they were young, they and their younger sister were plotted against. Fortunately, Bai Ximo came to their rescue at a critical moment, allowing them to escape the fate of being killed. But fate played a trick on them, giving them a little hope at first, but just as they tasted the sweetness, it was completely destroyed by their teacher. In the end, even their younger sister's life was lost, and they had no chance of reincarnation. Isn't this just another continuation of bad luck? If they had known this would happen, they would have been better off being killed along with their parents, rather than living in this world, with no way to seek revenge and no worries. Fairy Ji Yao was filled with helplessness and grief, and she didn't know how much longer she could hold on.

Fairy Ji Yao had something on her mind. She walked forward silently until she reached the side of the woman in red. She gently raised her hand, wanting to touch her, wanting some comfort. Her heart was filled with longing, longing for a little warmth, longing for someone to understand her pain and struggle.

She understood that the fate of the woman in red before her might be the same as hers, perhaps even worse. After all, having two souls in one body was a helpless act. There must have been some unspeakable hidden reason behind the cultivation of the Burning Heart Technique, forcing two close relatives to cultivate this path together. This was precisely the reason for their ill-fated fate. Their fate, it seemed, was doomed to tragedy from the very beginning.

"Senior, you know my mother. Could you tell me about her life?" Fairy Ji Yao asked in a trembling voice, her eyes fixed on the woman in red. Seeing her expression soften, Fairy Ji Yao cautiously reached out to touch the large red lantern. She was filled with anticipation, hoping to learn some clues about her mother from the woman in red.

The red-dressed woman's eyes were gentle, as if she were looking at her own child, full of tenderness. She didn't stop Fairy Ji Yao's outstretched hand, but gently dodged it, preventing Ji Yao from touching the lantern. She said, "Child, you can't touch this. The Taiyin Sacred Body is a magical immortal artifact. If it's contaminated by karma, there will be great disaster in the future. I promise you, I won't fight him now." Her words were filled with concern and warning; she didn't want Fairy Ji Yao to fall into an irreversible situation because of her momentary curiosity.

Fairy Ji Yao paused, looking back at Luo Hongchen. Seeing him nod gently, she slowly withdrew her hand, her eyes filled with anticipation as she waited for the woman in red to clear her confusion. She was filled with doubts and uneasiness; she needed answers, she needed to know what her fate would be.

The woman in red seemed to be reminiscing. She looked at the lantern in her hand, then looked at Fairy Ji Yao, and then slowly said: "Your mother and I met because of this lantern. Back then..." Her words were full of memories and emotions. What she wanted to tell was an unknown story between her and Ji Yao's mother.

It turns out the woman in red is also a member of the Lingyan Pavilion in the Great Snow Mountain. The old Pavilion Master married three wives throughout his life, each bearing three daughters. Among them, the woman who performed the sword sacrifice with him was Liu, the mother of Ling Xue'er, who had previously interacted with Luo Hongchen. The other two wives, Liu, died in accidents, and their two daughters, also tragically, died young due to ill fortune. This is a story of family, love, and destiny, steeped in tragedy, and it also reveals the hidden secrets behind Fairy Ji Yao's family.
