Chapter 571 Heart Pond
……
When Zhao Qing and his party steered the fairy boat across the light of transmission above the blood star.
The world before my eyes is completely different.
Qin Chuxin's eyes were blank as she looked at the gathering and dispersing clouds in the distant sky. For a moment, she felt as if she was in another world.
Xiaoyi's eyes couldn't help but tremble slightly, and she glanced at Zhao Qing from time to time, as if she was paying attention to her husband's gaze... She loved this place very much.
All that meets the eye is an endless sea of flowers, and the faint fragrance lingering around makes one's heart flutter, as if there is nothing else on the entire Tianxiang star except flowers, plants and flying pavilions.
There was no falling snow, no sun or moon, but the whole world was filled with light and shadow, and a comfortable breeze caressed the boat... lifting the hair of several beauties on board.
The lush green leaves rub against each other, making a rustling sound.
The branches are full of gorgeous and colorful flowers, and small butterflies are hovering on them.
wow-
wow-
I could faintly hear the sound of sea water hitting the shore, but no matter how I used my spiritual sense, I could not see any trace of water.
The buildings are filled with sea air, and the plants and trees are all filled with natural fragrance!
Zhao Qing's eyes narrowed slightly, and he seemed to feel relaxed and happy. This place was completely different from places like Xuexing Cuiyuan!
With the stars as her sea of plants and flowers, she treated the entire world as her own backyard. I wonder how stunning the owner of Tianxiang Tower must be...
This is what it means to cultivate immortality!
How could there be any human beings in that desolate place of Xueyi?
"Do you need to send a message to Saint Fang? Yuchan will take you there."
Xia Yuchan seemed to be in normal condition, as if she had been here many times.
"Thank you, Xuanxintan Forbidden Land."
Zhao Qing was very straightforward. After stating the destination, he immediately handed the Immortal Boat Jade Talisman to Xia Yuchan.
He and Si He were connected in thought, so he could get there by groping in the direction.
But now that there are ready-made drivers, who would be willing to steer the boat themselves?
Although Chu Xin was a true professional driver, it was her first time setting foot on the Two Stars, and she was still a complete navigator...
The fragrant world with slanting light and shadow seemed extremely dreamy, and the vast blood boat was speeding and swaying, stirring up a slightly cool breeze.
Xia Yuchan and Lan Xin stayed with the Bone Girl.
Pu Xiu, the little lickspittle, naturally followed Zhao Qing's family closely, strolling leisurely on the flying boat and enjoying the scenery.
Only Ye Xi was far away, whispering gossip with Tang Shiqi beside the Immortal Boat Spirit Spring...
But soon, she was also called over by Zhao Qing.
By the railing of the fairy boat, Hong Ning held Shu Yue's arm and whispered to each other with laughter. Qing Huan followed his master as always. Only Qin Chu Xin seemed a little out of place.
It wasn't that she looked embarrassed, it was mainly because... her cultivation was too high.
This generation of people are accompanied by Nascent Soul cultivators day and night. Apart from the two elder sister Taoist companions of Li Yan and Xing Shuiyue, the only one left is Tianxiang the Taoist protector.
After all, the difference in cultivation between them is the difference between a sect leader and a disciple in the mortal world, especially since Qin Chuxin is actually a sect leader...
Not to mention her eldest disciple who was traveling outside.
Later, the siblings Situ Ying and Situ Jing also fought with Zhao Qing over the Changsheng Sword.
At this moment, Qin Chuxin's heart was stirred slightly. She followed Zhao Qing silently, thinking about her own things.
"Brother, why did you call me? Do you have any instructions?"
Ye Xi, with her long black hair loose and brisk steps, came forward happily to ask.
"Just ordinary gossip."
Zhao Qing chuckled and shook his head, tapping the stone table with his fingertips, motioning Ye Xi to sit down and talk.
This wasn't the first time they'd chatted beneath the rocks. After all, they'd met here before in the Sand Gold Secret Realm and even had breakfast...
Xiaoyi stood up and took the wine cup from Qin Chuxin. She leaned over and filled each of the four people's glasses. She smiled softly and thanked them, "I haven't thanked Fairy Ye yet. Without your help, we wouldn't be able to get around in Tianxiang City."
"Now that I've left Zhongzhou for a while, I have a lot of free time. There's no need for me to serve tea. Xiaoyi offers a cup to Senior Sister."
My aunt chuckled as she spoke, covering her face with her sleeves and drinking the spirit wine in one gulp.
Zhao Qing accompanied them calmly, and even Qin Chuxin drank it as well, which made Shuyue Ningmei laugh and watch.
This made Ye Xi feel a little embarrassed. He never thought that the Blood-Clothed Man would thank him?
She hurriedly joined him in drinking, then stood up to return the favor and pour the wine: "How can you be so ridiculous... Senior Brother Zhao promised me a long time ago, giving me the opportunity to embark on the path to immortality..."
The girl paused for a moment, her charming eyes swept over Zhao Qing, and then she jokingly said, "If it weren't for my senior brother's agreement, I wouldn't dare to join forces with anyone."
Zhao Qing:?
He drank with a smile and asked casually, "Oh? Why is that?"
"It's nothing."
Ye Xi and Xiao Yi exchanged strange glances. Ye Xi glanced at the Bone Girl meaningfully, then leaned over the stone table and whispered to each other, "Among the eleven people walking, only Senior Brother Zhao and Fairy Bone are traveling alone with friends."
"If there's a vacant opportunity on the immortal path... Ye Xi will consider it carefully. If it's Nangong Huangfu, or Young Master Ning Ye and Shuiyue..."
My aunt frowned slightly, then a look of understanding appeared on her face.
Zhao Qing naturally understood Ye Xi's thoughts.
It's very simple. If you hang out with those big clans, you basically have no chance.
Only myself and Bone Girl have a weak foundation, so there may be extra opportunities for her and enough say in the decision.
Listening to the girl and Xiaoyi's private laughter and whispers, Zhao Qing simply nodded slightly, then curiously asked, "Is there any movement in the Ye clan?"
"You sent Ye Qiuying out of Tianxiang City earlier. How is the situation at home?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Ye Xi fell silent, but he still had a smile on his face and nothing could be seen.
Zhao Qing was at his ease, secretly communicating with Xiaoyi while quietly watching the girl waiting.
The reason why their family met Ye Xi privately was for these matters.
Although Ye Xi was not in harmony with the direct lineage, at that time, the city was full of compliments from the Ye family, but she raised her knife and directly chopped Ye Qiuying...
The Tianxiang incident had just ended and no further news had been heard yet, but the people inside the Ye family were obviously furious.
Zhao Qingxiaoyi originally thought that Ye Xi would ask her family for help, but she remained calm and said nothing. However, it was reasonable for her to ask about his concern.
After all, he was fighting for the position of walking companion on behalf of Ning Mei. If he needed to clean up the mess, Gu Nu was by his side. Together with Si He, they were already the third of the walking companions. In this area of Zhongzhou, it was more than enough to help Ye Xi out of his predicament.
Ye Xi's eyes flickered, sometimes moving between Zhao Qing and Xiaoyi, sometimes glancing sideways at Qing Huan's gentle smile, and even curiously looking at Qin Chuxin, and listening to what Shu Yue and Hong Ning were whispering and laughing about...
Although she still had a smile on her face, she felt extremely depressed in her heart, but when she thought about it carefully, it was nothing serious.
He responded casually, "The Ye clan hasn't made any moves yet, but they did send a message saying... if I help Jian Qiong take over Tianxiang City, the clan will bring my father back to life and make him the head of the clan."
How can you live if your father is dead?
Zhao Qing looked surprised. Seeing that Ye Xi's words were more joking, he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he smiled and said casually, "It would be great if it could be done that way."
"After the Tianxiang Dharma Assembly, we won't stay in Zhongzhou for too long. If you have any trouble, just let me know."
The girl's eyes remained smiling as she nodded lightly, looking around and talking about something else. She reminded Xiaoyi softly, "Xi'er has just arrived in Yujing. It's time for Xi'er to call me Senior Sister."
The aunt raised her beautiful eyes slightly, observing the other person's gaze with interest: "Could it be that it's even later than me and Shuyue?"
Seeing that Ye Xi didn't have any excessive demands, Shuyue's feelings towards him suddenly improved a lot. She took Hong Ning's arm and said with a crisp smile: "Xiaoyi and I were both born around the Bingchen year. We are disciples of the Blood Robe of Yongning Prefecture. Qinghuan came earlier."
"Bingchen..."
Ye Xi muttered to herself, then suddenly laughed: "Then it's Xi'er's turn to call the senior sisters."
Looking back at Shuyue's suspicious gaze, the girl held up her pretty face and muttered, "When I was in the Ye family, I had no contact with Yujing at all. It was only after I joined Yuelian that I was fortunate enough to become a disciple of Tianxiang. It has only been five years since then."
Zhao Qing's expression changed when he heard this. Fairy Yue Lianye... has only been a Tianxiang cultivator for three to five years?
It's hard to tell from her seven soul techniques and piano proficiency.
"Why is Chu Xin silent? Is she planning to learn from Qing Huan?"
The aunt pushed the cup away with a smile and asked Qin Chuxin jokingly.
The woman looked back with her beautiful eyes and said with a calm smile, "I can't get a word in. I've been in seclusion for a long time, and I always feel like there's something between us."
Gu Qinghuan pursed her lips and smiled, and was pulled by Ningmei to Zhao Qing's side, pouring wine one glass on the left and one on the right.
Everyone knows that Chu Xin feels that she is too old and no longer suitable to chat and laugh with her fellow junior sisters. If Bai Wanqiu is here, it would be fine, but she is speechless when she is left alone.
Shuyue asked the girl with a smile: "Then look, Junior Sister Ye, who is the senior sister in our family?"
???
Ye Xi glanced at Zhao Qing with her almond-shaped eyes, only to see the man holding Qing Huan with a gentle smile.
She pondered for a long time, then said with a slow laugh, "Senior Sister Qinghuan has been cultivating the three meridians together, so she should have been cultivating earlier than you. Is Qinghuan the eldest senior sister?"
Zhao Qing looked up at the girl in surprise. It was true. Qinghuan became Xueyi with him, earlier than Shuyue and Xiaoyi.
but……
Qin Chuxin chuckled and asked, "Where's Ning'er?"
Ye Xi: ...
She only needed to look at the playful expressions on their faces to realize that she had guessed wrong.
I only heard everyone calling her Ning'er Ning'er, and I thought Hong Ning had been practicing for about the same time as me...
Ning Mei leaned comfortably against Xiao Yi and said with a smile, "My husband has called me Senior Sister before. Even his becoming a Blood Robe disciple was approved by me~"
what! ?
Ye Xi's heart paused, and he toasted with a slightly puzzled smile.
I thought to myself, your family is such a mess. Xiaoyi is clearly the eldest wife, so how come it’s such a mess?
……
·
It didn't take long.
The blood boat approached a mountain pool surrounded by flowing light, but was blocked by a ban and could not enter.
Tianxiang, Xuanxin Pond!
It is definitely the best fairyland among the twelve towers of Yujing, and is as famous as Cuiyuanshuiling and Xueyilongyuan, and has the miraculous effect of transforming people!
Even if he is just a sect servant thrown in, he will come out as a rare immortal in the world. With time and practice, he will be able to look down on countless geniuses in Zhongzhou!
Zhao Qing was limited by his aptitude in his early years, and Shuyue was unable to practice cultivation because of her spiritual roots, not to mention her physical fitness... They naturally understood the precious immortal fate involved.
However, such an opportunity is just an additional benefit of being a Tianxiang walker.
A gorgeous boat came rushing over.
The white-haired fairy with beautiful eyes was sitting there calmly, with Saint Fang Ying by her side. In addition, there were seven other women, all of whom were not only extremely beautiful, but also... had reached the level of Divine Transformation!
As the seven people watched Zhao Qing and his group approach, their expressions varied. Someone said softly, "Then we'll leave now. If there are any plans for the Eighth Route Army, Junior Sister Fang can inform us at any time."
Hearing this, Si He just nodded slightly, looking like a cold and indifferent goddess.
The people gathered around her, except for the protector Fang Ying, are seven people who are clearly the leaders of the Tianxiang clan in the seven states!
Tianxiang itself does not have many resources, but it has Tianxiang Towers spread all over the world, and a small part of the profits from them belong to the walking tours.
Si He was previously accompanied by Fang Ying to meet the head of the Tianxiang Valley in Qizhou. It was an early meeting, and he could get involved in the affairs and resources of Qizhou in the future.
Moreover, Si He chose large states for cultivation, such as Qionghai State, Ji State, and Leihuang State.
As for Zhongzhou or Xiuyuanzhou, which have more abundant resources, they are now under the jurisdiction of other provinces.
Although Yongning Prefecture was right in his home, Si He honestly avoided this option...
Are you kidding me?
What kind of money can there be in a place like Yongning Prefecture?
I'm afraid that the Liu Tui that Ning Mei handed over that year was the most precious thing sent to Tianxiang in the past 700 years in Yongning.
If Zhao Qingshuyue were to choose, home would naturally be better and more comfortable.
But for Si He, she had long stayed in Yongning Prefecture long enough, and... she was the biggest consumer of spirit stones in this family.
The tens of millions of dollars spent by the family before, even the old demon marrow that Qin Chuxin bought, was nothing to her.
What she needs... cannot be bought with spirit stones.
"Qingrao meets Junior Sister Sihe."
At this moment, the Bone Girl's beautiful eyes swept over Fang Ying, and she joked and laughed with Si He in a relaxed manner.
Thinking back to the time when she had just become a walking being and had met Si He, it was still on Shouyun Mountain...
"Well, Senior Sister Gu smiled."
Si He's eyes were filled with a curious smile, as if she was trying to adapt to her new identity. At least her incarnation was only at the foundation-building stage.
Fang Ying looked normal and did not greet anyone. She just nodded to Zhao Qinggu and followed Hong Ning with light steps.
Now, the rest of her life belongs to this family, so there is no need to say any more polite words.
"What are you waiting for? Let Senior Sister Fang take you in!"
Shuyue directly pulled Ningmei over and drove her off the fairy boat in a bad mood.
No matter how magical this Xuanxin Pond is, Si He's immortal body does not need it at all, and he will not use this opportunity to incarnate.
Sister Ning's eyes sparkled, and she puffed out her fragrant cheeks softly as she breathed softly, "Why don't you let your husband go in? It will be beneficial for him to practice dual cultivation with us in the future."
what! ?
Zhao Qing was stunned for a moment. Is there such a saying?
Xuanxin Pond is where generations of Senior Sister Tianxiang practiced. Is it appropriate for a grown man like me to go in and bathe?
He looked back and asked half-jokingly, "Is it possible?"
Fang Ying's beautiful eyes were dazed, and she obviously didn't expect Hong Ning to say this.
This……
Seeing that Senior Sister Fang looked hesitant, Zhao Qing stopped torturing her. This was definitely inappropriate and so presumptuous.
"We'll wait for you outside."
He chuckled, pushed Ning Mei, and sent her to Fang Ying without saying a word.
Hong Ning glanced sideways in dismay: "How long will it take..."
Seeing this, Fang Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Whether Hong Ning goes in or anyone else goes in, it is naturally Si He who has the final say.
But if it was really Zhao Qing who went in, she would probably have to ask Liu Xingxing first...
"It will take about half a day. The three of you can take your friends to stroll around Tianxiang first."
……
Only after Ning Mei left, looking back every few steps, did Zhao Qing and the others relax and look at the differences of Tianxiang with a smile.
"Keep it. Return to Shouyun Mountain and I'll help you refine it into your Life Palace."
Si He took out a soul tablet and gave it to Shu Yue to keep, obviously wanting to share all the benefits of Tianxiang's travels.
Shu Yue was a little hesitant now, and whispered suspiciously, "I'm not even a Tianxiang cultivator, is it appropriate for me to carry the Guardian Soul Tablet?"
Shuyue felt that these were not important because she had her husband by her side and was protected by him. However, Xia Yuchan and Pu Xiu had already glanced at her inadvertently.
Before Zhao Qing could say anything, the bone girl's laughter could be heard: "Whether you are a disciple of Tianxiang or not, isn't it Si He who decides?"
Right now.
At the end of the sky, there was an upside-down mountain flying towards us at a rapid speed. It looked like the bald man’s treasure.
Zhao Qing smiled as usual, gently pressed down his wife's slender hand, and temporarily put away the Protector's Soul Tablet.
"They're all here."
He exchanged glances with the Bone Girl, then stood up and stayed with Si He.
But Si He obviously didn't feel strange meeting all the people walking around. Instead, he chuckled and said playfully, "This Tianxiang walking around is really fragrant. You were only accompanied by the Blood Clothes people on Blood Star, but Tianxiang is accompanied by the Eleven Veins of Yujing."
Zhao Qing: ...
Who said no?
"The main thing is the Blood Robe Star..."
He paused for a moment to gather his thoughts, then looked at a man on the mountain and bowed with a smile, "Brother Huangfu, are you alright?"
