Chapter 54 Be Careful of Xiao Qi
Chapter 54 Be Careful of Xiao Qi
When Xu Linghe returned to Ao Ze, he found that Grandmaster’s room was still lit. Through the thin window paper, Xu Linghe saw the person inside the room cast off the sorcery and coughed with his palm covering his mouth. In the candlelight, Grandmaster’s hair were gray at the temples. “Grandmaster, this is... ” Xu Linghe’s nose twitched.
“Grandmater, have you slept?”
The person inside the room did not expect that the grand disciple would come, so he disguised himself with sorcery hurriedly. Xu Linghe standing outside the room just stared at everything quietly. When the door opened, Grandmaster was in high spirit again, showing no trace of weakness before.
“It’s so late. Why not take a rest?”
“Grandmaster, today, my elder brothers of the human world came to find me. They were taken by the Hall of rewards and punishments and egged to come to Kunlun... Although the two brothers were merciless to me, I can’t be ruthless to them. After all, they are my brothers. To save me, my father destroyed his own heart meridians. I can’t hurt my father’s children...”
“He’er, you did the right thing. Repaying injury with kindness is what a true and indomitable man should do. How can my grand disciple not have forgiveness?”
“Grandmaster,there is still one thing I don’t understand. Zhou Yi collides with the Qi’s Emperor in the human world and Chidi. He must have something to do with unsealing the demon-suppressing pagoda. Why does Grandmaster clean the Sect?”
“And what can we do after cleaning them? There will be another Zhou Yi. In the entire Kunlun, there are many persons like Zhou Yi. We should cast a wide net to wait the enemies into the net. After a few days, Kunlun will announce to the three realms that it will hold a grand ceremony for you to become the Sect Master. At that time, will the bandits like Zhou Yi sit by and watch?
“Grandmaster, you mean to cast the net, lure the enemy to come in and then kill them all. But we can’t see the enemy, but they can see us.”
“He’er, Chidi’s resurrection is to lead the three realms, but Kunlun is his greatest enemy. If he wants to unify the three worlds, he must remove Kunlun. But he has no strength to win. He can only carry out secret attacks. So Chidi set finger men in Kunlun. But if we dispose of the spies in the Sect now, He’er, If you were Chidi, what would you do?”
“I would find the next target. As long as I can provide more benefits, there are some persons who dare to make a reckless move. Because the position of being the Head of the Kunlun is quite tempting in the three realms.”
“He’er, there are five influences in the three realms. First is the Kunlun; second is Chidi; third is Xiao Qi in the Fairy Kingdom; fourth is the weakest one, Di Qing in the human world; and the last is the most fathomable, Zhu Jiuyin. The reason why Chidi helped to replace the Emperor in the human world was to get common people’s blood. Now, Di Qing in the human world has been under the command of Chidi. And there are actually four influences now. Except Zhu Jiuyin, only Xiao Qi is the only choice. In your opinion, will Chidi join hands with Xiao Qi to attack Kunlun?”
“Impossible! I believe in cousin’s character. He will not set himself against me.”
“What about Zhu Jiuyin? I guess it may be Zhu Jiuyin who helped Chidi return to the position and unlock the demon-suppressing pagoda in Kunlun.”
“Isn’t Zhou Yi? Could it be said that Chidi is related to Zhu Jiuyin as well?”
“It is possible! The night before yesterday when the demon-suppressing pagoda were unsealed, I cast the spell to seal it up again. But a Spirit Power came to stop me. Linghe, who had such ability in the three realms? Because of it, time delayed and Chidi could return to his position... Oh, it may be the Heaven’s will, but it is a disaster for the living creatures in the world. This unavoidable calamity will only be reversed and stopped by our Kunlun so as to bring less suffering to the people. He’er, Black Emperor created the world for the living creatures to give a place to live in. In the past a hundred thousand years, the three realms have been living together peacefully. Although there are some friction and little fights, there are still places for living creatures. But if Zhu Jiuyin and Chidi associated with each other to find out the Pangu Divine Being Heaven Roll, it is the last thing that we want to see.”
“Grandmaster, Chidi has the different purpose from Zhu Jiuyin. Zhu Jiuyin wants to destroy the world while Chidi wants to be the ruler of the three realms. Besides, Chidi will never share power with others, unless Zhu Jiuyin can give more benefits than the three realms.”
“If Zhu Jiuyin is powerful enough and Chidi has no way but to surrender?
He’er, we should resue Black Emperor before discussing more. Only Mentor knows Pangu’s Zhu family well. As for Chidi, he has returned to his position for a while. He will be occupied with the matters in Mount Da Huang.”
“Grandmaster, I got it. We should stir up trouble inside the Mount Da Huang first.”
“He can cause internal strife in the Kunlun Sect, and we can do the same to his Mount Da Huang. This is also a gift to my Junior Brother for his returning to his position.”
“It turns out that Junior Uncle Grandmaster has been prepared. I am still here at a loss what to do.”
“Your Great Grandmaster used the Class 9 sound transmission to ask us to find out the Pangu Divine Being Heaven Roll. But my junior uncle master is also nonplussed over it, not knowing where the Heaven Roll is. Anyway, we should rescue Black Emperor from Si Shui.”
“I am going to save Black Emperor, but the burden to protect Kunlun will fall on Grandmaster’s shoulders again.”
“He’er, old as I am, I still have hard bones. I think Chidi will not come in a short period. Maybe the Mount Da Huang now is in a chaos.” f𝘳ℯℯ𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oν𝑒Ɩ.c𝑜𝙢
“Grandmaster is thoughtful.”
“All is fair in war. Chidi dares to muddy the water in Kunlun. Why can’t we set fire on the Mount Da Huang? But it is still the battle of the same master.”
“Grandmaster, you’re right. But it is also a helpless move.”
“If Xu Linghe does forget Fox, it will be too pitiful... Chenyang.”
“My fool, come with me to the Fairy City. Aren’t you afraid that the Fairy Kingdom will take away your territory?”
“Will you? If one day the two countries fight, will you help Xiao Qi to attack the fire tribe?”
“If I am still the Commander in Chief, I will. Because... I have to obey the order.”
“You... do let me down.”
Phoenix kicked at him. “How hot-tempered the woman is!” Su Chenyang thought and dodged again and again, but Phoenix was breathless and tired, thinking, “This man is terribly honest.” Su Chenyang looked at the pouting woman and laughed. He said to himself inwardly, “How can this little fool understand me? If one day, the fire tribe and the Fairy Kingdom made war, I will persuade Xiao Qi to give peace to the fire-tribe border areas.” But Su Chenyang would not let Phoenix know his own mind, but he just needed to protect her, hoping that his little fool would always followed him as she did in the childhood.
Across the forest was the Fairy City. Su Chenyang followed Phoenix closely as he thought, “She is so hot-tempered. I don’t know what to do if one day she becomes my wife. Will Su family have a shrew?” And then two words appeared in his mind, “Tune up.”
Viewing the Fairy City from afar, Phoenix sighed with emotion in her heart, “Although I am the fire-tribe princess, I spent my childhood in the Fairy Kingdom. Every place is as familiar as my memory.”
“Chenyang, look at the soul battle arena... It is the same and does not change. Last time, you lost the battle, and I kept crying for a long time...”
“Fool, it is common for a soldier to win or lose...”
“Chenyang, I think I can’t face Fox, afraid that I let something slip in a moment of carelessness. If Fox knows that Xu Linghe has forgotten her...”
“Phoenix... Xiao Qi wants to know the current situation about Chidi... I have to report it back in the Fairy City.”
“I am afraid that I can’t manage my mouth...”
“What a fool.”
“Why is here covered with snow...”
“It is said that it was cursed by Chidi, but don’t know why.”
“Father is staying pretty close to Chidi. If Xiao Qi vents his anger on the fire tribe, what should I do? I will be homeless at the time... Fox once said it was not a benevolent act to stop a war with a war. But I don’t have the strength to subdue Xiao Qi without weapon. My fire tribe is always weaker than the Fairy Kingdom. If Father continues to go against Xiao Qi, Father will only have a bad ending.”
“Your father followed Chidi in order to find a backer, but he should not help the evildoer to do evil deeds. You also saw the underground palace in the Qi Kingdom. To become the Devil God, Chidi sucked living human’s blood, even engulfed my spirit...”
“Chenyang, Father has a grudge against Xiao Qi. You have not seen that my father was hurt by Xiao Qi so miserable that no one bore seeing him. Father crawled back to the fire tribe all the way. His legs were corroded badly. I had to use ice-soul insects under the fire tribe to scrape his bones, peel away his rotten flesh and re-clean the muscles and bones. At that time, father hovered between life and death with great pains. So, father robbed Fox away in order to retaliate Xiao Qi’s deeds. Anyway, you should be careful of Xiao Qi.”
“The Emperor is a man of great talents and ambitions. It is inevitable that sometimes he acts with a domineering air. The fire tribe came to provoke. So how could the Fairy Kingdom lose a national prestige...”
“Father said that Xiao Qi killed your former king.”
“What do you say? Isn’t he dead in the battle between the two armies?”
“That is the one-sided word of your Emperor. Xiao Qi wanted to kill my father to cover his crime.”
“Fool, can’t your father lie to you...”
“Brother Xiaomao, I put the words here. If one day the Emperor of the Fairy Kingdom tolerate you, you can come to the fire tribe for me... Be my fool husband...”
“What a fool. But I like you. I will let a large sedan chair carried by eight people take you and marry you.”
“Okay. The Imperial City is in front. I will not go to the Fairy City... Su Chenyang, I am serious. You should be careful of Xiao Qi.”
Phoenix left silently, not knowing when they would meet again after parting with him this time. But with the responsibility on her shoulders, how could she wander in the world at leisure? The temperature in her hands got colder, and the wind moaned through Phoenix’s cuffs and chilled her.
“Little fool.”
Phoenix’s body fell into a hug and was held tightly. Her heart was fluttering, and her blood boiling. Her hands were wrapped in big hands. Su Chenyang could feel that Phoenix’s body was changing. “This little fool is scared.” Su Chenyang could not help but laughing, never imagining that such a hot-tempered woman would be so timid.
“Dare to laugh more... I am going to kick your ass.”
Phoenix’s mouth was blocked as she murmured. “This guy is so bold that he dares to kiss me in broad daylight. It seems that men are not deserved giving an amicable face. Otherwise, they may act like a tyrant.” Phoenix opened her mouth slightly, and then a trace of blood appeared on her shell-like teeth. Su Chenyang gave out a cold snort, thinking that, “This little fool dared to bite my lips. She is so unromantic. I should tune her up indeed.”
Phoenix broke away from Su Chenyang and flew away. “That man just took advantage of me!” The more she thought, the more her face burned. Her little hand touched the lips, and they were still hot. “But why I like the feeling a lot?”
Su Chenyang silently watched the woman until she disappeared into the sky. Then, he dived into the palace wall. A little palace servant saw that it was the Commander in Chief and poked out his head to see whether the new Commander in Chief was as amazingly formidable as the female Commander in Chief. Su Chenyang waved his spiritual fingers, and then a mask covered his handsome face. Perhaps the little palace servant did not expect it, so his eyes gaped at him wide and open. Su Chenyang burst into hearty laughter, which shook the snow fall. Not until then did the little palace servant realize that Commander in Chief Su did it on purpose...
Inside the Yun Shu Wan (a residence). Wuyou delighted her child. Several months passing, her child liked laughing more. Wuyou held a small bell and shook, and Xiao Dou Ya’er (Wuyou’s son) crawled over and seemed to like the bell a lot. Xiao Qi sat on the couch, looking at the woman and then the child. Xiaoyao shook the bell and played with the child, no sorrow but happiness on her face. However, Xiao Qi knew that Xiaoyao just hid her sorrow. Being a mother, Xiaoyao had the responsibility for her child except love. Xiaoyao was not what she used to be, since blazing light faded on her, and instead, she became calmer.
Outside the Yun Shu Wan. Su Chenyang had been waiting for the little palace servant to transmit the report. When the little palace servant’s high-pitched reedy voice rang at the door, Xiao Qi stood up and walked out of the Yun Shu Wan. Wuyou took a glance at his hurrying leaving back, wondering, “What drives Xiao Qi in a hurry?” Then, Wuyou held her child and left the residence as well.
