My Junior Still Hasn't Killed Me

After the spring solstice, it is rain.

The boundless rain was as thin as sorrow, and it fell continuously in Changjin City. Although it was not big, it was enough to disturb people.Gu Xuanyan went to the study early in the morning, and Zhong Yan was bored to be alone, so he practiced sword in the courtyard.

His practice is advancing rapidly, and there is a vague tendency to break through.

After a set of sword skills came down, Zhong Yan raised his eyes and saw Gu Xuanyan standing in front of the corridor. He didn't know how long he had been standing there.

Seeing him looking over, the other party smiled and said, "Senior brother has improved a lot in cultivation."

Zhong Yan raised his hand to block the rain, and ran straight into the corridor.When he was in front of Gu Xuanyan, he said proudly: "Of course." Then he asked: "What happened?"

If nothing happened, Gu Xuanyan would not go to the study early in the morning, besides, last night Zhong Yan also heard the sound of the Northern Wilderness Falcon.

Gu Xuanyan lost his smile and said: "Brother, we are going back."

Zhong Yan was startled, and immediately understood.

"Are they here?"

Gu Xuanyan said: "Brother, are you afraid?"

Zhong Yan glanced at him when he heard the words, and said deliberately: "I'm afraid you won't let me go?"

Gu Xuanyan laughed lowly: "No, brother must be with me."

"That's it." Zhong Yan's tone was as usual, "Then let's go, so what if the four cultivators join forces, whether you are afraid or not, you should always make a breakthrough."

He said this calmly, as if he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. On the way back to the room, the system's tone was full of worry: "Why do you speak more and more like Gu Xuanyan?"

"Is there?" Zhong Yan thought carefully and had to admit. "It seems to be a little bit."

"You have to remember your mission, don't lead Gu Xuanyan back to the right path, and be led on a detour instead."

Zhong Yan: "...haven't I been led into a bend?"

System: "...not funny!"

After Zhong Yan teased the system, he comforted him again: "Okay, I have a sense of proportion."

The system became worried and stopped talking.

Back then when Zhong Yan and Gu Xuanyan came to Changjin from Beihuang, they had the intention of visiting mountains and rivers, so they felt very at ease.Now that he was back in Beihuang, Zhong Yan thought that he would at least feel a little heavy when he was faced with a big event, but at this moment, there was no disturbance in his heart, only a little feeling of "it's finally here".

Zhong Yan turned his head to look, and Gu Xuanyan's expression on the side was still calm, as if he didn't think it was a big deal.

In the midair of the ice field, a group of people marched towards the depths of the northern wilderness with their swords.

This scene is very familiar, but the last time Gu Xuanyan was still in awe of many disciples as a fellow traveller.Now he has become the target of this group of people, and some people even want to get rid of him quickly.

Thinking of this, Ji Changyun frowned slightly.Liang Zheng at the side glanced at him, and said cautiously: "Junior brother, what's wrong?"

"I don't understand." Ji Changyun said. "Gu Xuanyan's talent is extremely high. As long as he concentrates on cultivation, he may be able to become the fastest person among Taoist cultivators to ascend to the Tao. I even had a competition with him here. I didn't expect him to be enchanted."

His face became solemn: "Taoism was originally born to uphold justice and eliminate evil spirits. He is accustomed to the righteous way, so he should understand these truths, but why did he go astray?"

After Liang Zheng listened, he said in a daze, "Junior brother actually said such a long sentence today..."

Seeing Ji Changyun glance at him, Liang Zheng shrank his neck and said, "Maybe it's because of Qin Ming, fellow Taoist Qin."

Seeing Ji Changyun's expression of "who is this" after finishing speaking, he quickly added: "It's the Taoist partner of Gu Xuanyan last time on the ice field."

"..." Ji Changyun obviously remembered what happened last time, paused for a moment, and said again: "What does this have to do with him?"

Liang Zheng didn't expect that Ji Changyun didn't know about this matter that the whole cultivation world knew.After thinking about it again, Ji Changyun has always only had Dao in his heart. He practiced swords in the mountains every day and never heard anything outside the window. Naturally, he had never heard of these rumors.

"According to disciple Qingyan, Fellow Daoist Qin was captured by Cang Luan last time, and he swore a heart-blood oath to him--junior brother also knows that apart from the original owner voluntarily rescinding the contract, only a higher-level demon cultivator can undo the pain-blood oath. Fellow Daoist Gu Maybe there's a reason for that."

Of course Ji Changyun knew what the blood oath was. He frowned, and after a long silence he said, "Although the circumstances are understandable, but for this kind of thing to betray the Dao, or even become a demon, it is a bit of a small loss."

The thing he was talking about did not refer to Zhong Yan being sworn in blood, but a matter of love.Liang Zheng understood, and smiled a little, with a gentle tone.

"Junior Brother, everyone values ​​things differently. You were born to eliminate demons and defend the Dao, and the Dao of Heaven is the most important thing in your heart, but perhaps for Gu Xuanyan, Fellow Daoist Qin is the most important thing in his heart."

"For the most cherished person, all other things are dust and smoke, not worth mentioning."

Ji Changyun stopped talking.

Liang Zheng glanced at him, and said carefully: "Actually, there are many cultivators who think that it is justifiable for Gu Xuanyan to become a demon, and the crime is not worthy of death—"

"Brother, do you hope that if you really do it, I can release the water?"

Liang Zheng didn't expect Ji Changyun to see through his intention immediately, and immediately blushed. Ji Changyun continued: "If it's true what the senior brother said, Gu Xuanyan is to protect the most important thing in his heart, then he should go all out with me."

...Liang Zheng was speechless, blushing and lowered his head, looking at the sword under his feet.Ji Changyun raised his eyes and looked into the depths of the Northern Wilderness.

Stepping into Hinayana, the five senses have improved to a higher level, and he can already faintly see the shadow of the palace.

Similarly, Gu Xuanyan in the palace can also feel the aura of the group.

When Zhong Yan first knew that Sixiu was coming to Beihuang, he had really thought about whether he should hide in Changjin to avoid the limelight.But after thinking about it, if the conflict is not resolved for a day, there will always be such a day.

There is no way to avoid it, so I can only raise my sword and go up.

He sighed, raised his eyes and said to Gu Xuanyan: "What would you do without me?"

Gu Xuanyan withdrew his consciousness, laughed softly, and said, "Yes."

The two were joking, and the atmosphere was very relaxed.In fact, if it is true that Da Nazhen in the Fourth Cultivation unites to attack Gu Xuanyan, the probability of Gu Xuanyan's victory is not high.

Just like Cang Luan in the most prosperous period back then, just being joined by the elders of the Taoist world, his vitality was already seriously injured, and he could only heal his injuries and continue his life in the extreme cold of the northern wilderness.

But having said that, it is still unknown whether the four cultivators will attack Gu Xuanyan together as promised.

Gu Xuanyan abolished the cultivation of Li Shan's disciples at the beginning. Li Shan had a deep hatred with him, and he would definitely kill him, but it was just an unranked sect.The buddhist cultivator of Bukong Temple has always been compassionate, but Gu Xuanyan has the audacity to steal other people's relics. Although the other party can't kill people, it's not certain whether they will do it.The demon cultivator has no grievances, let alone a child spirit, so he probably wouldn't do anything.

As for Taoism...

Zhong Yan's mind was spinning quickly, and Gu Xuanyan who was at the side suddenly said, "Ji Changyun is here too."

Seeing Zhong Yan turn his head to look at him, Gu Xuanyan smiled faintly: "He has entered the Hinayana realm, and he has the potential to break the mirror. I can feel his spiritual consciousness."

Zhong Yan was startled, and suddenly remembered that when Gu Xuanyan died in the ending of the original book, Ji Changyun was at the end of the Hinayana period, and broke through in a decisive battle with Gu Xuanyan, and finally defeated Gu Xuanyan.

In the book, everyone went to Beihuang to slay demons, and found that Gu Xuanyan was the culprit behind the scenes, and killed Gu Xuanyan in Beihuang.

Zhong Yan came here with the mission of changing Gu Xuanyan's fate. Although the journey was full of difficulties and dangers, the important fate still coincided exactly with the book - killing Chunqin, beheading Cangluan, and becoming a demon cultivator.

So what about this time?

Zhong Yan remembered that in Qingyan, Gu Xuanyan came to visit him one night and talked to him about the way of heaven.

At that time, Gu Xuanyan had a cold look on his face, and his tone was full of mockery and unwillingness.Today's Zhong Yan finally felt the meaning of being fooled by the so-called fate.

Zhong Yan couldn't help thinking, can his mission really be completed?Can he really help Gu Xuanyan change his fate?

After thinking wildly for a while, his heart sank and his complexion turned pale. Gu Xuanyan suppressed his smile and said in a warm voice: "Brother, what's wrong?"

After speaking, he seemed to feel something, he held Zhong Yan's hand and slowed down his voice.

"Brother, don't be afraid."

Gu Xuanyan's fingers were long and slender, and the warmth of his palm passed through his skin continuously to Zhong Yan's hands, pulling him back from his complicated thoughts, and he suddenly realized that he was over-worried and fell into a mental block.

Zhong Yan stopped fantasizing, he took a deep breath, held Gu Xuanyan instead, and told himself that this time is different.

Gu Xuanyan used to be alone, but now that he has himself, it is shared by two people.

Fortunately, it was two people.

Despite all the difficulties and dangers, we can go hand in hand.
