Fengyunlu
Chapter 925 Cruel and ruthless
"Yao'er, it's up to you whether to continue waiting or to work together to find a solution to this problem!" Bai Ximo muttered to himself, then calmed down and began to try to call out from his heart. His voice was low and full of anticipation, as if he was waiting for a miracle to happen, or expecting some kind of response.
There's a saying that goes, "As soon as the mind moves, the spirit can reach." The spirit is truly magical, unlike anything else. Even if you're far away in the sky, as long as your mind moves, you can instantly feel something extraordinary. Those with profound cultivation can even make the entire world move with a single thought. This is the key to Bai Ximo's understanding. Although he and Fairy Ji Yao haven't yet achieved the legendary telepathic connection, mutual induction, silent calling, and mutual reflection are still a piece of cake for them, provided Fairy Ji Yao is willing to respond. This unique method of communication is infeasible for anyone else, not even Fairy Ji Long, who is married to Bai Ximo.
Speaking of which, the atmosphere in Yaochi Fairyland was currently tense. The mysterious woman's origins were unknown. Although she was merely a spirit, the Taiyin Mirror gave Fairy Ji Yao and Master Gu Yuan the impression that she could attack them at any moment, with incredible swiftness and ferocity. Even with their advanced cultivation, they were not entirely confident they could withstand this woman's threat.
Fengchen was well aware of the situation and could only rely on his magical soul to devise some countermeasures. However, these methods were merely escape strategies. Not to mention the Taiyin Mirror, and the Holy Qilin currently being repaired within the Taiyin Mirror, Fengchen and the other two had no way of taking it away. Unless they had other means, if they angered that mysterious woman, they would have to temporarily abandon the Qilin.
However, Fengchen was, after all, a congenital spirit with a superior mind, and he was able to remain calm even in the face of such a master. He began to try to speak to the mysterious woman in a gentle tone and a humble manner, and the woman didn't seem to be offended. Perhaps because she had been trapped for countless years, the mysterious woman's eyes flashed with curiosity as soon as Fengchen opened his mouth.
"Oh? Since there's a legend, then tell me about it. Well said, I might be able to help you realize some of your wishes." The mysterious woman smiled as she spoke. Although Fengchen couldn't see her expression clearly, he could sense a softening in her tone, as if she were seeking some kind of exchange, wanting to gain something from Fengchen. As for the so-called interest, Fengchen felt it was probably just a way for the mysterious woman to save face.
But no matter what, as long as there was hope, Fengchen was willing to try again. Because the matter of the Taiyin Mirror not only concerned what he had promised others, but also concerned Bai Yu's fate, which was what Fengchen cared about most. So he quickly responded, "Since you are willing to listen, I will naturally not refuse. The legend you just mentioned is from ancient times, which my father heard by chance. Although it sounds a bit bizarre, the person who said it was also from ancient times, perhaps even longer. In short, the credibility of the legend should be no problem, and..."
"Wait." Feng Chen was about to continue when the mysterious woman suddenly interrupted him and asked suspiciously, "You said there was someone from ancient times, so who was that person your father saw? And where is he now?"
Fengchen didn't care about the questioning. There was a huge gap between his status and that of the mysterious woman, and their seniority was even more difficult to measure. But as long as she was interested in the topic, Fengchen would be able to find a breakthrough. It was just that Fengchen himself was not quite sure about what she asked this time, so he could only relay his father's original words: "Replying to the senior, what my father saw back then was not a member of the human race, but an ancient strange beast. Although it has a bad reputation among humans, it is indeed from ancient times and has never come out to cause trouble. It just sleeps in the place where it guards. As long as no one disturbs it, it and the human race basically live in peace. The reason why my father was able to meet it was because for the sake of my broken meridians, he had to look for opportunities, and that's how he came to the place where the strange beast was. As for the specific process, my father rarely mentioned it, but only told me some legends. As for the identity of the strange beast, I don't know either. I only heard that it was secluded in the giant tree in the sea, guarding something, waiting for the arrival of the destined person. As for the specific situation, even my father didn't understand it when he went there himself."
"So that's it..." The mysterious woman nodded, muttering to herself, as if she understood something. However, after listening to it, she did not continue to ask questions, but fell into deep thought.
Fengchen watched quietly from the side, not bothering to interrupt the legend. He stared at the mysterious woman, whose glow flickered, as if affected by something, and her mood fluctuated. This unstable aura inadvertently affected everything around them. But Fengchen felt that this might be an opportunity. So, he chose to wait quietly, hoping that the mysterious woman would come up with a solution and offer to help him.
At this moment, Fairy Ji Yao was slightly startled, her eyes full of doubt, and she couldn't help but look at Master Gu Yuan. Master Gu Yuan also felt something was wrong. He turned to look at Fairy Ji Yao, and their eyes met in mid-air. Although neither of them said it explicitly, Master Gu Yuan understood that Fairy Ji Yao seemed to have other things to deal with.
Feng Chen stood nearby. His soul was unaffected, and the mysterious woman couldn't sense him, so he remained quiet and didn't move. At this moment, he asked, "Aunt Ji Yao, is there something wrong?"
Fairy Ji Yao gently shook her head, indicating that everything was fine and asking Fengchen to focus on the task at hand. As for what she had encountered, Fengchen couldn't help, and neither could Master Gu Yuan. She indicated that she was concerned because she felt the other calling her, and she worried that if she lost her focus, there might be adverse consequences. Therefore, she informed Fengchen and Master Gu Yuan in advance, so that they could be prepared and at least think about how to respond.
The two communicated telepathically. Master Gu Yuan remained calm, while Feng Chen, after careful consideration, realized that if Fairy Ji Yao changed her mind, it might be noticed. If the mysterious woman noticed, all her previous efforts might be in vain. Therefore, Feng Chen used his spiritual body's divine consciousness to form a barrier around Fairy Ji Yao, aiming to block the induction and prevent the mysterious woman from noticing anything unusual.
Fairy Ji Yao nodded slightly. She knew Fengchen was a skilled man. Although his cultivation was not high, his spirit was very special, and the mysterious woman could not sense it. So, she calmed down and felt Bai Ximo's anxious call from tens of thousands of miles away again.
In fact, Bai Ximo's mind has already arrived. She and Fairy Ji Yao have called each other. Fairy Ji Yao has refused many times before. But this time is different. Bai Ximo went to the Jedi Luoshen Peak, which is full of dangers. Before going there every time, she would go to Yaochi to inform him. Fairy Ji Yao understood what Bai Ximo meant, but she was unwilling to respond, and she was unwilling to meet him every time. When Bai Ximo was in danger, she never tried to call him. Fairy Ji Yao also understood that as long as this thought did not appear, Bai Ximo would be safe in the Jedi. This is the tacit understanding between them. Although their fate has ended, it is fate that makes people play tricks on them. Neither of them wants to create the current situation. Therefore, the tacit understanding between them, Fairy Ji Yao and Bai Ximo, can understand each other without speaking.
However, now that Bai Ximo was at Luoshen Peak, Fairy Ji Yao immediately felt uneasy. She didn't know what was happening, and even trembled, thinking that Bai Ximo was in danger. Now was a critical moment, so she and Fengchen signaled to each other while also directly sensing Bai Ximo's thoughts.
"Yao'er..." A soft call sounded in her heart. Fairy Ji Yao closed her eyes, and a vague figure immediately appeared in her mind.
Bai Ximo! ! Fairy Ji Yao responded in her heart, and the figure gradually became clearer. Compared with the time she saw him three years ago, he looked more vicissitudes of life. The original high spirits were gone, and now appeared before her eyes, the figure that was once, and perhaps still is, deeply buried in her heart. Fairy Ji Yao shook her head, and she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Bai Ximo was okay. But the next scene, the scene of the place where Bai Ximo was, was all reflected in her mind, and Fairy Ji Yao couldn't help but become curious again. She had never seen this mysterious ancient cave before, but she always had a familiar feeling, as if she had seen it in a dream, or perhaps it was a memory from her childhood. In short, Fairy Ji Yao felt a blood connection, a feeling of embrace.
"What is this?" Fairy Ji Yao was about to ask, but when she turned around and saw Bai Ximo's expression, she swallowed the words back.
Bai Ximo was the same. He had a lot of things to say in his heart, but when he really saw Fairy Ji Yao, he just stared at her affectionately, moved his lips, but said nothing.
"Yao'er..." Bai Ximo struggled to squeeze out those two words. Years of longing and concern finally found a response at this moment. Although they were just two simple words, in Bai Ximo's heart, they were more important than a thousand words. This brief response let Bai Ximo know that Fairy Ji Yao still had his lonely figure in her heart.
They both felt a pang of pain they couldn't express. For so many years, the resentment hidden within them, the anger at the injustice of fate, the helplessness at the vicissitudes of life, and the regret that they were not meant to be together—all these things were difficult to change. But they both knew in their hearts that even if they didn't meet, the other would be their greatest concern for the rest of their lives.
But today was different. Fairy Ji Yao thought Bai Ximo's life was hanging by a thread, so she called out from Luoshen Peak. When she got a response immediately, her heart was finally at ease. At the same time, she couldn't help but ask.
"Have you encountered any difficulties?" she asked softly, her eyes full of concern. But upon closer inspection, Fairy Ji Yao's eyes seemed a little evasive, and her tone seemed to carry a hint of fear that she dared not touch.
Bai Ximo knew that the curse on Fairy Ji Yao had killed her only sister three years prior. While she resented Bai Ximo's involvement with her, she hated herself even more. If she hadn't secretly been thinking about someone from the past, how could she have implicated her closest relatives? This life was destined to end, so why was she still hesitating?
"Yao'er..." Bai Ximo called out softly again, a smile in his eyes. He received a response, and he had no regrets in his life. Even if he were asked to die now, Bai Ximo would not hesitate. However, he was still concerned about his beloved daughter's life. If this matter could be resolved, Bai Ximo would die without hesitation.
Fairy Ji Yao understood his gaze and knew that Bai Ximo had finally resolved his grievances. But it was this very look that made Fairy Ji Yao even more worried. She felt that Bai Ximo was undoubtedly at Luoshen Peak, and most likely beneath Jiuxia Stream. Furthermore, she felt that the ancient cave where Bai Ximo was was so familiar to her, as if they were blood relatives. This made her wonder where this place was and why she felt this way.
Bai Ximo also saw her confusion. The two of them were a match made in heaven, and they could understand each other's feelings with just one look. So, Bai Ximo also took a deep breath, sorted out his thoughts, and roughly explained: "This is an ancient cave at the foot of Luoshen Peak. It seems to have some connection with Xiaoyu and Chen'er. However, I felt a call before, and followed the feeling to come here, but I didn't expect to be trapped. But this mysterious lake is extraordinary, and illusions often appear. Although strange, they are related to the two children. And there are many opportunities born from it. It seems that one of the two children needs to crack it. Considering that Xiaoyu's life is now in danger, it is most likely Chen'er's opportunity. It's just out of helplessness that I can't get away now. There is another thing."
"The fortune that appeared on the lake before was a Tongtian Talisman, and I don't know where it went. But I see that its fortune seems to be somewhat similar to the Taiyin Sutra that was lost by the Yao Chi lineage, so I think it is also related to Yao Chi. And not long ago, after the Tongtian Talisman disappeared, another chaotic light broke through the air like a green snake. With my cultivation level, the knot here cannot be broken, and that light flashed by, and I don't know where it went. I didn't notice what happened specifically. These two things may be related, and I think they are both related to Yao Chi." Bai Ximo said roughly, and Fairy Ji Yao listened carefully, not missing a single word.
This is not only related to the importance of what Bai Ximo said, but also to the voices of the two people. Since that year, even when they parted in the desert three years ago, Fairy Ji Yao only complained to Bai Ximo, and other than that, the two of them never said another word. This was Fairy Ji Yao's deliberate avoidance, and Bai Ximo also understood her thoughts. It's just that the two of them had grievances in their hearts that they couldn't say, nor did they dare to say it. But facing the fate of the younger generation, the two did not hesitate and chose to sacrifice each other. In other words, if Bai Ximo really had some good fortune this time, not to mention what would happen to the two of them in the future, even if they died immediately and fell straight into the netherworld purgatory, they would have no regrets in their hearts. It can even be said that such an ending is a kind of relief for each other. In short, no matter what happens in the future, as long as Bai Yu and Feng Chen are fine, Fairy Ji Yao and Bai Ximo will no longer have anything to worry about.
