Chapter 420 The Pillow Book 1
Chapter 420 The Pillow Book 1
Xueying felt an indescribable strange feeling in her heart, as if something was gently plucking her heartstrings. The atmosphere exuded by this world, with an inexplicable sense of intimacy, made her involuntarily immersed in it.
At the same time, the two people mentioned by Tuanzi, Emperor Donghua and Supreme God Zheyan, were returning from the East China Sea. Halfway through the journey, something unexpected happened! Supreme God Zheyan, who was originally strolling leisurely, suddenly stopped and frowned slightly, as if he had noticed something unusual. Emperor Donghua, who was following behind him, also stopped when he saw this.
Emperor Donghua flicked his sleeves behind him and asked calmly, "What's the matter?"
Supreme God Zhe Yan looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "I actually felt a strong attraction from the Phoenix bloodline."
Hearing this, Emperor Donghua showed a look of surprise: "Phoenix? You should be the only one in this world who possesses such noble bloodline, could it be... there is another phoenix?" While speaking, Emperor Donghua also used his magic power to carefully investigate the surrounding situation.
After a while, Emperor Donghua nodded slowly and said, "Well, it seems that there is something strange. In this case, why not follow this power and find out what's going on."
The Supreme God Zheyan readily agreed. After all, as the only phoenix in this vast world, he often felt lonely. Now that he knew that there were still people of the same race in the world, he was extremely happy. So, he immediately followed the guidance of the phoenix bloodline and walked forward with big strides. Soon, the two arrived at a quiet forest, and the source of the mysterious phoenix bloodline was Xueying who was hiding there.
Xueying's extremely sharp sense instantly detected someone approaching this place, but when she looked closely, she couldn't help but feel a complex emotion in her heart. It turned out that the person who came was a person from the world she had set foot in before. However, at this moment, Xueying already knew that this world was definitely not the place she had lived in before.
The man named Donghua appeared in front of him with another person. That person was Zheyan. He saw the swaddling clothes placed beside him and quickly stepped forward to pick it up. After he looked at it carefully, he suddenly showed a look of surprise on his face and shouted excitedly: "Donghua, this is really a small and exquisite phoenix! And judging from its appearance, it is still in its infancy."
As he spoke, Zheyan gently lifted a corner of the swaddling clothes, and in an instant, a deep blue light shone out - the baby in the swaddling clothes was revealed, and it turned out to be a phoenix with a dark blue body and immature wings. Such a beautiful and unique fur color made Zheyan very happy, and his eyes were full of love.
At the same time, Donghua looked around, frowning slightly. He noticed that this was an extremely ordinary and simple forest. Apart from the lush trees, there were no other eye-catching sights. However, it was really incredible that such an unknown baby would appear in such an ordinary place.
"Well, this is indeed strange. It is unreasonable for her to be here alone." Donghua murmured in a low voice. Although he was puzzled, he also knew that it would not be easy to figure out the reason.
At this time, Zheyan suggested: "It doesn't matter. No matter what, we can always find out the truth. Let's take her back to my place for now, and we'll make a long-term plan later." Hearing this, Donghua nodded in agreement. So, the two of them carefully held Xueying in her arms, turned around and slowly left, and their figures gradually disappeared into the depths of this mysterious forest...
Xueying gently closed her eyes and quietly nestled in Zheyan's warm embrace. She slowly mobilized the immortal power in her body and began to let it flow through the meridians of her body. The body she had at this moment was exactly the body she had in the Three Lives World, but now she had returned to her childhood. However, Xueying was already familiar with cultivation. Although she was young at the moment, her state of mind was as calm as an old man who had experienced vicissitudes of life.
At the same time, Xueying suddenly realized that her companion fairyland had also appeared here. It was just that she was in such a hurry that she did not notice such an important thing. Unfortunately, even if she knew where the fairyland was, she could not go there easily. After all, in her current situation, it was not wise to act rashly.
Xueying thought to herself that although she didn't have much affection for this old fellow Zheyan, she thought he must have quite some experience in raising children. In this case, it might not be a bad idea to stay with him for a while. However, when she thought of those cunning foxes in Qingqiu, Xueying felt annoyed. She wondered if she could think of a way to separate Zheyan from those foxes to avoid unnecessary interference.
But before that, the most urgent task is to figure out what time it is. If it is too late and Bai Qian has successfully ascended to the position of a supreme god, then staying here will probably only cause more trouble. Instead of doing that, it would be better to get out as soon as possible. Besides, Xueying still has many important matters to deal with after returning this time. For example, to find out whether Shao Wan's soul is still alive. If the soul is still there, perhaps everything can be turned around, and she can also find more room for operation.
Xueying followed closely behind Zheyan, and together they returned to the beautiful peach blossom forest that stretched for dozens of miles. However, Emperor Donghua left first and headed straight towards the Taichen Palace.
"Okay, little one, open your eyes! Although you are still young, as a member of the Phoenix clan, you can now understand my words." After Zheyan led Xueying into the peach blossom forest, he leisurely sat down in front of a stone table, then gently placed Xueying on the stone table and spoke softly.
In the next moment, Xueying's body was shining with light, and she instantly turned into a colorful phoenix. You must know that in her current original form, she can not only jump happily, but also fly freely in the sky. If she turned into a human child, it would be much more troublesome, after all, with small arms and legs, she can hardly do anything.
"Who are you?" Xueying blinked her big, lively eyes, pretending not to know the person in front of her, and asked in a baby voice. While speaking, she tilted her head playfully, and her innocent look was extremely adorable.
"Haha, I'm Zheyan, also a phoenix. We are of the same clan. How do you feel?" Zheyan looked at the adorable little phoenix with a smile on his face, and his love for her was beyond words. However, when he noticed the doubt in Xueying's eyes, his mind moved, and his body suddenly flashed, and in the blink of an eye he turned into the original phoenix form that was exactly the same as Xueying. Then, he quickly changed back to human form like a flash of lightning.
"Wow! You're so big!" Xueying's eyes widened, and she stared at the huge figure in front of her with astonishment, and she couldn't help but exclaimed. For some reason, she was affected by this body at this moment, as if the mature and stable self in her heart temporarily hid, and was replaced by innocence and childishness. If it were her usual self, she would never lose her composure like this, let alone do such a thing.
"Haha, you will grow up to be as big as me. By the way, cute little guy, what's your name?" Zhe Yan asked with a smile, his eyes full of curiosity. Until this moment, he still didn't know the name of this small and exquisite phoenix.
"Xueying, my name is Xueying." Xueying answered crisply, her voice as sweet as a yellow oriole singing in a valley. As soon as she finished speaking, she flapped her pink wings and flew up like a light snowflake, flying straight towards the peach tree not far away. When she got close to the peach tree, she carefully landed on a thick branch and stepped on it lightly with her slender feet a few times, but she seemed not satisfied, so she flapped her wings and flew back to the ground.
"Zheyan, I want a phoenix tree." Xueying blinked her big, lively eyes and said what she was thinking without hesitation. After all, for young phoenixes, only tall, straight, lush phoenix trees are their most ideal habitat.
"Okay, okay, tomorrow I will go find the most suitable phoenix tree for you to plant." Zheyan agreed readily. In fact, he already knew that young phoenixes would only roost on phoenix trees, so he had already made up his mind to find a good phoenix tree for this cute little phoenix.
"That's great! In that case, I'll have to hurry up and practice." Xueying heard this and happily spread her wings and flew into the house again. After circling back and forth on the soft and comfortable big bed for a few times, she finally found a corner that she thought was quite comfortable, and then landed steadily. After adjusting her posture, she closed her eyes, held her breath, and began to practice with full concentration. For a moment, the whole room was silent, with only the faint spiritual power fluctuations surrounding Xueying.
Zheyan shook his head gently, and the movement was like a breeze blowing across the lake, causing ripples. He slowly waved the delicate folding fan in his hand, and the exquisite patterns on the fan were looming, as if telling ancient and mysterious stories. However, at this moment, his mind was not on the folding fan at all, but on where to find the right phoenix tree.
Time flies, and it's the next day. When Zheyan was about to leave, he couldn't help but feel worried. He knew that Xueying was left here alone, what if something unexpected happened? So, after careful consideration, Zheyan decided to use his magical powers to set up an extremely solid barrier in front of the house. This barrier can not only block interference and invasion from the outside world, but also ensure that Xueying can practice with peace of mind without being disturbed by others.
At the same time, Xueying woke up slowly in the house. It turned out that hunger woke her up from her sleep. She opened her eyes slightly, as beautiful as the flowers that bloomed in the morning. Xueying sensed that there was no one in this beautiful peach forest. Zheyan must have gone out to do business. Then, she thought about it and used her own magical powers to take out some food from her personal space to satisfy her hunger. After a full meal, Xueying dissipated the remaining food smell without a trace. After all, her body is still small now, and her magic power is very limited. It will take some time to quickly recover her past strength. Therefore, at this stage, three meals a day are still indispensable for her.
After filling her stomach, Xueying was not in a hurry to start practicing. Instead, she planned to chat with Tuanzi with great interest.
"Tuanzi, why did we come to this world of three lives this time?" Xueying asked curiously.
Hearing Xueying's question, Tuanzi quickly replied: "Yingying, you don't know that this world is not the world you experienced before. It is actually a new story that developed from the previous world!"
"The Pillow Book? What is that?" Xueying frowned and thought hard. There seemed to be some vague impression in her mind, but she couldn't remember the specific plot.
Seeing this, Tuanzi on the side hurriedly explained: "Yes, it's the lingering love story between Donghua and Bai Fengjiu!"
Hearing this, Xueying nodded as if she suddenly understood something, indicating that she seemed to remember some related fragments.
Then, Tuanzi continued to narrate seriously: "Because the Heavenly Dao of this world was too anxious, it hastily teleported us here. The story of this world originally developed to the end, and the situation became extremely bad. As the pillar of the four seas and eight wastelands, Emperor Donghua actually lost half of his heart, and his magic power was greatly reduced. At the same time, in order to gain luck to nourish themselves, the Bai family of Qingqiu acted without restraint, which eventually led to a series of terrible consequences - the four seas and eight wastelands suffered many disasters one after another, and the trajectory of the Heavenly Dao itself underwent earth-shaking changes.
In desperation, the Heavenly Dao had to expend a lot of energy to turn the entire world back to the original time node and sent us to change everything. The first task is to prevent Emperor Donghua and Bai Fengjiu from having any emotional entanglements. If we can't successfully change the status quo, then we have to find a suitable candidate to replace Donghua and become the new Lord of Heaven and Earth, and at the same time, we have to find ways to prevent Bai Zhi's conspiracy from succeeding. "
"Then what has the world's destiny paid for you to be able to do this?" Xueying knew that Tuanzi would not do anything without benefits, so she asked directly.
"A ball of the origin of heaven." Tuanzi said directly without hiding it from Xueying.
"The Origin of Heavenly Dao, this is a good thing!" Xueying said happily. You know, in every world, the Origin of Heavenly Dao is a very precious and rare treasure. Every Heavenly Dao is reluctant to hand it over easily.
"But there's only a little bit of origin left of the Heavenly Dao in this world. There shouldn't be any problem with it, right?" Xueying asked worriedly. She wasn't worried about anything else, but was mainly afraid that I wouldn't forget to give it to them in the end.
"Don't worry, Yingying, nothing will happen. As long as you keep this world in order and everyone in their place, the Heavenly Dao will receive good feedback and become more complete." Tuanzi said with a smile.
"That's good, hehe. However, he asked us to do these things, but now I have lost all my magic power and I have to practice again. So I can only do things slowly." Xueying said helplessly.
"Yingying, don't worry. Heaven will know what to do. It won't be long. He will slowly release the magic power in your body as you practice, so your practice speed will improve by leaps and bounds." Tuanzi said.
"That's good. By the way, Tuanzi, if you want to come out, you'd better wait for me to talk to you later. Because it's not good to appear here suddenly, but I will find a suitable place for you to come out. You can see if there are any suitable skins first. Alaska's skin is not suitable in this world." Xueying said. After thinking about it, I still think that the previous giant panda skin is better, but I can see if there are any better skins first.
"OK, Yingying, wait a minute, I'll find a suitable skin." After Tuanzi finished speaking, he went to find a suitable skin. You know, he can have fun in this world. Although the world above is also okay, he still can't play to his heart's content, and he won't feel anything abrupt about it.
"Wait, let's go check out Qingyang first. This world is just right. I'll find some time to see if it's possible to obtain some dragon blood so that it can transform into a dragon as soon as possible." Xueying thought about it, and then said it out loud.
"Okay, I feel Qingyang will be well soon." Tuanzi stopped and said this before leaving.
Xueying was meditating in the room, feeling the changes in her body.
After a while, she sensed that Zheyan had returned from outside. Xueying stopped practicing and waited for Zheyan to remove the barrier.
After Zheyan came in, he saw Little Phoenix lying on the bed.
"Zheyan, you're back. I'm hungry." That's right, Xueying had almost finished eating, so she was hungry again.
"Oh, I forgot. You just broke out of your shell not long ago and you still need to eat. But I don't have anything to eat here, just some fruits. You can eat some first." Zheyan said.
"Okay, but I want to eat delicious food." Xueying didn't want to eat only fruits, and she had more requirements for this old phoenix so that she wouldn't always raise those fox cubs and forget about her own kind.
"Okay, that's it for today. I'll take you to have a meal later." Zheyan didn't have much cooking ability, so he would take this little phoenix to Donghua to eat more.
"Okay then." Xueying said.
Then Xueying flew out and waited on the stone table for Zheyan to take out the fruit.
"Here, eat it." Zheyan put the fruit on the stone table and said.
Xueying ate the fruit and found it quite good. After all, it was a fruit that Zheyan could appreciate, so it still had some fairy-like aura and tasted good.
"I found the tree. It's right next to the house. You can go to any tree you want from now on." Zheyan waited for Xueying to finish eating, then waved his hand and the table was clean.
