[Comprehensive] Extreme Night

Chapter 10 Immortal Sword 44

The process of double sword cultivation was not as smooth as everyone expected.Although Wang Shu and Xi He both found hosts, their cultivation progress was not consistent.They are deeply worried that if this situation continues, they may not be able to catch up with the time when the twilight world approaches the human world once in 19 years.

But no matter how the elders tried to insinuate, the two of them just said that they would practice more diligently.Seeing the expressionless Xuan Xiao and the cold Su Yu, and their unrelenting attitude, the elders had no choice but to leave with a sigh.

Su Yu nodded to Xuan Xiao, and turned around without saying a word.

Because of Xuan Zhen's incident, this junior sister had a lot of criticisms about him, how could Xuan Xiao not know?There are probably not a few people in Qionghua who have this idea, but Xuan Xiao doesn't bother to argue.Therefore, apart from the matter of sword practice, the two of them had nothing to say, and this was probably the biggest reason why the elders were worried that their cultivation would not go well.

But the matter has come to this point, Xuan Xiao is not Yun Tianqing, and this matter is not something that can be exposed by being slick and tricky.Furthermore, he was interested in Xihe, so it would be a joke to defend himself.In his heart, Qionghua's ascension to immortality was indeed more important than any personal honor or disgrace.

When Xuan Xiao stopped the sword in his hand, it was already night.Xi He kept vibrating, Xuan Xiao felt a wave of heat pouring into his body, and his inner breath surged, so he had to stop to adjust his breath.However, the more you adjust your breath, the more painful your meridians will be. Recently, this kind of situation has gradually increased, and Xihe's ability to absorb the host's spiritual power has also increased.Xuan Xiao was upset, so he simply didn't go back to his residence, but walked towards Jianwuping instead.

But there was already someone standing on the platform.

"...Senior Brother Xuan Zhen."

The man turned his head and smiled at him, "Junior Brother Xuan Xiao." His smile was very gentle, and for some reason, the person whose sword was taken away by him was the only one in Qionghua who treated him as usual.

Xuan Xiao's heart relaxed slightly, most of the thoughts of leaving that had just arisen dissipated, he nodded, and walked to Xuan Zhen's side.

"Brother also come to watch the stars?"

"Yes," Xuan Zhen laughed, "I don't want my junior brother to be so good."

Xuan Xiao couldn't help showing a smile, "In the night, the Milky Way hangs in the sky and the stars are shining, which naturally makes people's chests open."

"Is your chest open?" Xuan Zhen nodded, and suddenly sat down cross-legged, "I just yearn for this tranquility. At this moment, everything is silent, only the stars hang high, so I can naturally cast aside my troubles."

"... What troubles senior brother is the matter of Xi He?" Xuan Xiao said after a moment of silence.

"If I say no, the younger brother is trustworthy."

"I believe."

Xuan Zhen turned his head to look at him, and suddenly smiled, "Junior Brother Xuan Xiao is really different from ordinary people. You know that no matter where I go, others are always careful to comfort me, which really annoys me."

"But you, the 'culprit', made me feel a lot easier."

Xuan Xiao was silent.It's just that he also sat down cross-legged, and didn't mention anything about "I'm ashamed of my brother".

Whether it's him or the Wu Chen under Xuan Zhen's skin, they all feel from the bottom of their hearts that this is the most peaceful time in their hearts.For Wu Chen, only by gazing at this quiet night sky can he slightly calm down the restlessness that comes from his soul.In other worlds, he often does this. Compared with the thousands of stars above his head, what is a mere human being?The world is so big, everyone is different, with different looks, different figures, different personalities, different hobbies, and different talents. As long as you think about it this way, he who was born with such bloodthirsty beliefs is really nothing.

When he was young, he was terrified by the bloody thoughts that gradually emerged in him. He could not sleep at night and almost had to self-mutilate to stay awake.When he grew up a little, he immersed himself in reading books, hiding himself and feeling anxious and inferior.He once distortedly hostile to countless ordinary people around him, resenting them for easily obtaining the happiness he dreamed of.He has also questioned the gods countless times, out of thousands of people, why is he the only one!Why should he leave his insistence as a human being after giving him such cruel faith?Why is he the one who struggles to survive the torture day and night?

But now he has long learned not to dwell on those useless things.A person who is constantly indulging in pain must be because of his weakness.Wu Chen quietly looked up at the unchanging night sky, and the smile on the corner of his mouth gradually became deeper.

"Speaking of which, I have something I've always wanted to ask Junior Brother Xuan Xiao."

"Brother, please tell me." Xuan Xiao turned his head, and the expression on his face became serious.

Xuan Zhen smiled slightly, "This is a private matter of junior brother. Junior brother doesn't have to be so serious, even if he doesn't answer it, it's nothing." Seeing that the other party still had the same expression, he couldn't help but smile, and his tone became more gentle, "Why is it, junior brother?" Why are you so obsessed with raising your faction?"

"Senior brother, why did you say that?" Xuan Xiao frowned.

"If you just want to ascend to immortality, with the aptitude of your junior brother, I am afraid that you will be able to succeed in one day as long as you devote yourself to cultivation. If it is not for the purpose of ascension, why bother to cultivate the double swords and suffer from it?"

"you know……"

"Junior Brother, have you forgotten that I was also the Lord of Xi He?" Xuan Zhen's eyes fell on Xuan Xiao's side, Xi He seemed to know that the old master was nearby, and he was as excited as if burning.

"It's the same when senior brother is practicing..." Xuan Xiao was taken aback for a moment.

"The reverse of the meridians is like adding thousands of needles to the body." Xuan Zhen pointed to his leg, "Yang Yan enters the body, and the pain is a hundred times worse." He smiled wryly, "I am not a pure Yang body, but I want to become Xi He The lord should also have this report."

Seeing what Xuan Xiao wanted to say, he waved his hand, "Do you know why I'm saying this, junior brother? The practice of double swords is extremely dangerous, and if you are a little careless, you will be lost forever. If junior brother just wants to ascend to immortality, there is no need to take risks This is a risk. Others only see the scenery of the Lord of Two Swords, so they don't know the dangers behind. Xihe belongs to fire, so the danger is even more dangerous. I hope my junior brother will think about it—"

"You haven't practiced for long, so it's not too late to give up now."

Xuan Xiao was stunned, under the moonlight, Xuan Zhen's side face was blurred, "Brother... are you persuading me to give up?" Others either envied him for getting this famous sword, or urged him like Tai Qing and others Practice diligently so that Qionghua can ascend as soon as possible.And he has been urging himself, even if the meridians are faintly painful and his spiritual power is exhausted, he ignores it.No one has ever told him that practicing Xihe is too dangerous, it is better to give up.

Abandoning Xihe, this kind of thought is too unbelievable, and it goes against Master's expectations. He should have directly reprimanded him, but now he just felt a soft emotion in his heart, which was different from Xihe's scorching heat, but gentle and ironic. .

But it was only for a moment.Xuan Xiao sat up straight, looked into Xuan Zhen's eyes and said, "Xuan Xiao dare not live up to Master's expectations." Seemingly feeling that the words were too cold and harsh, Xuan Xiao's eyes flashed a trace of annoyance, and said again, "Ascension faction is promoted, It was the wish of Qionghua in the past, how could he back down and give up because of Xuan Xiao alone. How could Xuan Xiao not repay the favor of teaching him?"

Xuan Zhen looked at him, and suddenly smiled, "Junior brother is indeed as I thought, he is a very affectionate person, I was the one who said too much before. Now that junior brother has made a decision, I only hope that you will be careful in everything and everything will go well."

"How could this be?" Xuan Xiao said with a warm heart, "Xuan Xiao hasn't thanked senior brother for his concern yet."

"Anyway, you also call me senior brother," Xuan Zhen smiled, "you don't have to be so alien. If you have to thank me for everything, do I still have to thank my junior brother for treating me with a normal heart and paying me back for a night? clean?"

Xuan Xiao also smiled.

"Speaking of which, you and I have been in the same school for several years, and this is the first time you have spoken so many words to me."

Embarrassment appeared on Xuan Xiao's face, "This..."

Xuan Zhen laughed out loud suddenly, "Okay, I know you have always been reticent, and you don't make excuses when you are hostile. It's just Xuan Xiao, how can you be happy and free if you keep everything in your heart like you?"

"Brother...you are right."

Xuan Zhen patted him on the shoulder, "In the future, you can come to me for matters related to Xi He, some things... I finally have some experience."

Stopping Xuan Xiao's plan to thank you, Xuan Zhen said, "I didn't come here tonight just to hear your thanks. If you really want to thank me, if you have time in the future, come and watch the stars with me."

The familiar warmth spread in his heart, Xuan Xiao smiled slightly, "It's a deal."

.

.

"Senior Brother! Senior Brother! Xuanzhen Senior Brother!" A person hurriedly pushed the door and entered.

The young man in front of the case turned around helplessly, "Tianqing."

The person who came was Yun Tianqing, his expression was rarely tinged with worry, and his tone was a little hasty, "Have you heard about that incident, brother?"

It is rare to see such a Yun Tianqing, Xuan Zhen was also surprised, "What's the matter?"

"Near Kunlun Mountain, almost all monsters have been slaughtered, and several races have been exterminated!"

"Oh," Xuan Zhen's expression remained the same, but his tone lowered a little, "I've heard about this matter too. But, Tian Qing, why are you worried? It's just some monsters, probably caused by the disciples of some faction. Why."

"But those monsters are different from those selected during the trial, and some of them have never done evil... Senior brother doesn't think that the person who did this is too cruel..."

"Tian Qing," Xuan Zhen put down his pen and said with a frown, "As a member of the Taoist sect, I take it as my duty to slay demons. How can you feel pity for monsters? What's more, those monsters don't hurt people at this time. It doesn't mean that you won't hurt people in the future, how can you just tolerate it."

"Why...you even said that, senior brother..." Yun Tianqing had a complicated expression.

Sighing, Xuan Zhen said, "Tianqing, you should know that I was sent up the mountain by my parents when I was young with a high fever, right?"

Yun Tianqing was taken aback, and said, "This matter... I naturally know."

"Later, someone told me that because I was carrying the Heavenly Fire Spiritual Root, the monsters on the Taiyi Immortal Path were greedy for spiritual power and attacked my parents even more than others... The two of them really took my life in exchange for my life. Monster, you can take into account that my life is in danger, but can you take into account my parents' love for their children, are you really innocent?"

"..." Yun Tianqing bowed his head and remained silent.

"Junior brother, today you think about the monsters innocently sparing their lives, and if you are in danger in the future, will they repay you?" After saying this, Xuan Zhen turned his head away.

"...But Suyu and I don't expect anything in return." The person behind murmured.

Xuan Zhen's hand holding the pen paused, "Suyu?"

The author has something to say: "In the past, when I practiced double swords and had no progress, no one asked me to give up... When I first achieved success and my meridians reversed, no one asked me to give up... I was disappointed and hopeful, and I suffered day and night. The suffering of the fire, no one cares about my life... Now, it's too late." I believe everyone has an impression of Brother Xiao's words, I have always resented them very much.Brother Xiao, someone is here to persuade you to give up.

Cough cough, who did the last thing, don't I need to say?Don't pay attention to Wu Chen's logic, Yun Tianqing was not persuaded, it just involved his parents, so it's not easy to continue talking.JJ smoked so much last night that I couldn't even die, so I had to postpone it until today.
