According to "Kyushu Strange History", two thousand miles west of Yinghai, in the mist of the sky, there is a fairy mountain called Yunmiao Mountain, which is more than a thousand feet high. Among them, Qionglou in Langyuan and Yunchuang in Wuge, there are ancient gods hiding here...

Although it is a legend, but for thousands of years, there are always a few lucky people who can see the beauty of the fairy mountain and pass it on to future generations.

-------------

In the far west of the Kyushu Continent, there is the endless Yinghai. No one knows how wide this sea is. According to legend, the end of this sea is connected to the sky.

But at this time, in the distant Yinghai, the sea fog suddenly churned up, and in the fog, one could vaguely see the Qiongge of Xianshan Mountain, like a mirage, illusory and dreamlike.

When the clouds and mists completely cleared, a white jade fairy mountain with a height of [-] zhang appeared above Yinghai.

It's just... no one can see this wonder.

On the top of the fairy mountain, the vegetation is verdant, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and it is full of vitality.

In front of an elegant wooden house, stood two figures, one green and one white.

……

To the extreme of emptiness, to keep quiet.

The man in white used his finger as a pen to write six characters in the void. The handwriting was smooth and smooth, plain and true, but still let the people around him see that he was not calm at the moment.

"Su, why are you..." The man in Tsing Yi frowned slightly, his heroic face tinged with melancholy.

Su Qing stood with his hands behind his back, as if surrounded by immortal energy, a smile suddenly appeared on his extremely handsome face, which made the man in Tsing Yi go crazy.

"Qing Yuan, my catastrophe is coming soon." Su Qing looked at the vast and boundless sea in the distance, his lips slowly opened and closed, and there was a flash of light in his smiling eyes.

"What?" Qing Yuan came back to his senses, and said inconceivably, "Where did the calamity come from? Why didn't I feel it at all?"

"Naturally, it's the catastrophe in my heart." Su Qing lightly raised his right hand, and a lark landed on the back of his hand, making a light cry.

"It's been too long, it's been so long, I seem to have forgotten some important things, if I don't find it, I'm afraid I will become a demon." Su Qing looked at the little creature in his hand, his expression softened.

But Qing Yuan frowned even deeper, "What are you going to do?"

"Don't be nervous." Suqing released the lark, put his hands behind his back again, and looked at Qingyuan, "Let's go for a walk, if we can't find that memory, I will resign myself to fate."

Qing Yuan looked at Su Qing who had made up his mind, pursed his lips, and didn't speak again, but his figure gradually became blurred.

After a while, Qing Yuan's figure had disappeared, and at the place where he stayed just now, there was a bright sword floating in mid-air.

Suqing raised his hand to hold the hilt of the sword and shook it lightly, and his tone was also smiling, "Let's go."

-------------

The mainland of Kyushu is the seat of the Yun Dynasty.

With the Qingyuan sword, Suqing crossed the endless sea area and came to the land in the blink of an eye.

"Huh?" As soon as his feet landed, Su Qing raised his eyebrows involuntarily, because his spiritual sense sensed that there was a large group of people rushing towards the sea.

"Su, we are newcomers, so don't attract attention." The Qingyuan sword in his hand trembled, and then Qingyuan's sound transmission sounded in Suqing's mind.

"En." Suqing pursed her lips lightly, and her figure disappeared instantly.

Not long after, a group of people walked over mightily.

These people held some strange things in their hands, Suqing didn't know what they were for, but what surprised him was that the four strong men walking in front of the crowd were actually carrying a girl who was tied up!

Suqing hid behind a rock, looked at it with great interest, and chatted with Qingyuan by sound transmission.

"Xiaoyuan, what do you think they are going to do?"

"From the looks of it, it should be something like a sacrificial offering," Qing Yuan said.

"I see." Su Qing nodded, and found that the group of people had quickly set up a simple altar and lit the firewood.

The girl was lifted onto the altar, her gagged mouth let out a 'woo-woo' sound, and her beautiful face was already weeping.

Among the crowd, a woman with an ugly mask came out and began to circle around the altar, chanting spells that no one could understand, and sprinkled some powders of different colors on the girl from time to time.

"Are they... are they going to throw this woman into the sea?" Su Qing raised her eyebrows as she watched the weird scene by the sea.

"Isn't it obvious that the woman is a sacrificial offering!" Qing Yuan said with a little disgust, as if mocking Su Qing's slowness.

"I haven't entered the world for a long time, I was just confused for a while." Su Qing stretched out his hand and patted the scabbard, then with a slight movement of his body, he floated onto the rock.

The group of people were busy offering sacrifices, so they didn't notice Suqing.

After about one stick of incense, the woman seemed to have finally reached the most important link after singing, singing and dancing.

Hearing her shout, the wooden stick in her hand suddenly pointed at the girl, and the four strong men stepped forward again, lifted the girl up and walked towards the sea.

"You won't save people?" Qing Yuan reminded.

"Wait a little longer." Su Qing calmly looked not far away.

At this moment, the old woman yelled again, and knelt down on the ground with a 'plop', and the group of people behind her also knelt down with a groan.

"Ah! The noble God of Yunmiao, please listen to our appeal and save the people of Yucun..."

The woman finally said something that Suqing could understand.

Suqing: "..."

The world became quiet in an instant, what the mother-in-law said later was no longer important, at this moment Suqing only felt that the state of mind that had not been very peaceful recently was even more disturbed now.

"Hahaha! So that woman was dedicated to you~" Immediately afterwards, Qing Yuan's gloating laughter sounded in his mind.

The corner of Suqing's mouth twitched slightly, he looked up and saw that the four men had already walked into the sea, after thinking about it for a while, he stretched out his white jade-like palm and gently lifted it towards the sea.

The strong wind and huge waves swept over the sky and covered the sky in an instant, and swept the four men and the girl ashore together, and at the same time frightened a large number of people kneeling by the sea.

"Help!"

"The god is angry! Run!"

The crowd scattered like birds and beasts, and in the blink of an eye, the seaside became silent, leaving only the girl sitting on the beach in a state of embarrassment.

Suqing jumped off the rock, walked to the beach, and helped the girl untie the rope.

"Girl, are you okay?"

The woman had some sea water in her nostrils, she coughed and shook her head, when she finally calmed down and raised her head, her almond eyes widened.

The girl felt that everything around her had disappeared, only the white figure in front of her was left.

Did she see a fairy?

"Girl?" Seeing the girl's dull eyes, Su Qing couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the huge waves just attracted scared the girl into a fool?That would be a sin.

"Huan Shui." Qing Yuan's voice sounded in his mind again, there were only two words, Su Qing couldn't understand, and was confused.

Fortunately, at this moment, the girl had come to her senses, which made Suqing heave a sigh of relief.

"Uh, my son, no! This fairy, are you talking to me? You... are you a fairy?" The girl was full of excitement, remembering that she had almost died in the sea before, but was miraculously killed by a The big wave rolled back, such an unimaginable thing, she had no doubt that it was the fairy-like young man in front of her who cast a spell to save her.

"Immortal?" Suqing couldn't help but smiled, looking into the distance, and said slowly, "If there is a destiny, I would also like to see what an immortal looks like."

The girl was once again lost in Suqing's smile.

-------------

Yucun is a small village closest to Yinghai. The villagers live by fishing. However, in recent years, the people of Yucun have gradually discovered that the number of fish and shrimps in the nearby sea area is decreasing sharply. Not many fish were caught.

Only then did the villagers panic. There were no fish and shrimps in the sea, and the things they depended on for survival were gone. What's wrong!

Ever since, the villagers found a well-known witch in a nearby village.

The witch said that because the villagers overkilled the creatures in the sea and angered the God of Clouds who lived in seclusion in the Yinghai, the punishment was imposed. If they wanted to make up for it, they had to sacrifice a woman to solve the predicament. The villagers They believed it to be true, and that's why today's scene happened.

After hearing the girl's description, Su Qing frowned slightly, and immediately figured out the reason.

Yunmiao Mountain is two thousand miles away, although the distance is still far, but the overflowing aura will still attract creatures from afar, and over time, even the fish schools here will migrate collectively, which makes sense.

So, in the final analysis, this incident was caused by him, and he almost killed the girl in front of him.

"It's my fault." Suqing sighed softly, and looked at the girl apologetically, "Why did they tie you up as a sacrifice?"

Although the girl didn't know why Suqing suddenly apologized, she still replied honestly, "I am an orphan. My parents went fishing when I was very young and never came back. I have always lived at my uncle's house, but these few days Nian's family was in a difficult situation and couldn't make ends meet, and there were two younger brothers to support, who couldn't afford it at all. It happened that the witch said that she would present a girl to the immortal, so she chose me..."

When the girl said this, she couldn't help but shed tears. She was only 15 years old, but this kind of thing happened to her. She is still afraid in her heart. She is afraid that when she goes back, everyone will tie her up and throw her into the sea.

"It's hard for you." Suqing sighed softly, stretched out her finger and tapped lightly on the girl.

In the blink of an eye, the moisture on the girl's body was driven away, and the clothes became clean as new.

The girl stopped her tears in shock, and looked at Su Qing secretly, becoming more and more sure that the handsome young man in front of her was a fairy descended from the earth.

Suqing didn't pay attention to the girl's gaze, he turned his head to look at the calm sea surface, mobilized his own spiritual power, attracted the fish to come over, and solved the embarrassing situation here.

"You go back, the people here are fine." After finishing everything, Suqing looked at the girl again.

"Uh...ah?" The girl was stunned, "No, are you okay?"

"Yeah." Suqing nodded and turned to leave.

"Immortal Elder, please wait." The girl immediately came to her senses, anxiously grabbed Su Qing's clothes, her cheeks flushed slightly, "Can... can I beg you... to take me with you?"

"Huh?" Su Qing stopped in her leaving footsteps, turning her head puzzled, "Why? Isn't this your hometown?"

The girl shook her head, her eyes were lonely, "Although this is my hometown, I have long been discouraged by everything here. The moment everyone decided to throw me into the sea, this place was no longer my hometown. "

As the girl said, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Suqing, "I don't want to stay here anymore, please take me away, even if I am a slave or a handmaid, I will repay your kindness."

Su Qing showed a look of embarrassment, although he felt some sympathy for the girl, but if he took a girl on the road, it would be very inconvenient.

"Take her with you, you are so stupid, you just have someone to take care of you." Qing Yuan said through voice transmission.

"Huh~?" Suqing's tone turned upwards, which meant that he was not happy at the moment.

"To tell you the truth, you and I haven't joined the world for a long time, so it's hard to integrate for a while, so it's better to have someone take care of you." Qing Yuan said nonchalantly.

"It makes sense." Su Qing pondered for a moment, nodded, and then showed another Qing Yuan's creepy smile, "Since entering the world, it is natural to give up cultivation and return to the true self like ordinary people."

"Huh?" Qing Yuan felt that the sword was cold, and suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Hey! Suqing, what are you going to do? Don't act recklessly—" Before Qingyuan finished speaking, Suqing's jade-like palm was slapped towards him, and a stream of light instantly enveloped the blade of the sword. It is necessary to seal Qingyuan's sword spirit.

"Suqing! You god damn it!!" Only in time to finish shouting this sentence, the Qingyuan sword completely lost its vitality.

A sword should have the appearance of a sword, how can it be so long-winded, like to tease the master's sword.

Su Qing snorted coldly in her heart, shook the Qingyuan Sword in her hand which had become ordinary, and raised her eyes to meet the girl's astonished gaze.

"So, you can follow me from now on." Suqing smiled and helped the girl up.

"Yeah!" The girl nodded blankly.

Suqing: "What's your name?"

Girl: "My name is Hu Niuniu."

Suqing: "..."
