My Taoist buddy has practiced surrogacy

Chapter 1371-Awakening
Zhou Xing’s doubts grew more and more serious.

At this moment, a dancer suddenly attacked and stabbed Ling Xue. Ling Xue reacted quickly and drew her sword to block the attack. Zhou Xing took the opportunity to hold the eldest prince hostage, but was surprised to find a magic mark on the back of the eldest prince's neck. What is going on? There seems to be a huge conspiracy behind it.

While tracking down clues about Beidi, Ling Xue discovered the secret files of the previous emperor's extermination of the Demon Cult 20 years ago. At this time, Zhou Xing's old injury relapsed and he coughed up black blood. Ling Xue hurriedly tore open his clothes and saw a totem on his chest that was the same as the eldest prince's. The two looked at each other and understood in their hearts that they were involved in a terrible conspiracy.

Ling Xue decided to lead troops to encircle and destroy the Demon Sect's stronghold, hoping to find the key to cracking the conspiracy. During the battle, Zhou Xing was pushed into the altar blood array. The blood array flashed with light, and Zhou Xing actually awakened his magic pupil. Through the magic pupil, he saw clearly that the national teacher who presided over the ceremony was the residual soul of the predecessor of the Haoqing Sect who failed to ascend.

The Imperial Master saw Zhou Xing and Ling Xue and laughed wildly: "The last ten of the nine thousand tribulations are hidden in the monarch and minister tribulations! Do you think you can escape?" Just as the Imperial Master was about to take action, Ling Xue cut the chains of the altar and released the imprisoned dragon soul. Zhou Xing used the power of the dragon soul to reshape his meridians. His eyes became firm and he said, "It's time to end it."

However, at this moment, Ling Xue suddenly put the sword against Zhou Xing's throat and said coldly: "Actually, I'm here to kill you." Zhou Xing looked at her and said calmly: "I know this is sudden, but I believe you won't." A hint of hesitation flashed across Ling Xue's eyes, and at this moment, the nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-ninth thunder tribulation fell from the sky.

The thunderbolt descended, and the powerful force made the whole world tremble. Zhou Xing saw the scenes of his previous life in the lightning, and he finally remembered his true identity - the chief disciple of Haoqing Sect. Ling Xue also recovered the memory of the female warrior, and the sword in her hand cut off the disguise of the national teacher.

It turned out that all this was a test from Heaven. The incarnation of Heaven appeared and said coldly: "One of you must be reincarnated for eternity as the price." Zhou Xing looked at Ling Xue, smiled and held the sword pointed at him, and said: "I choose her to ascend." Ling Xue's eyes were full of tears, she kissed Zhou Xing's bloodstained lips fiercely and said: "I choose you to live."

The two disasters merged to form an annihilation vortex, and the two hugged each other tightly in the thunder and fire. Zhou Xing handed the life magic pill to Ling Xue and said with a smile: "Remember to check the snow in the upper realm for me." Ling Xue nodded with tears in her eyes.

Ling Xue successfully ascended and returned to Haoqing Sect. She stood on the ascension platform, looking at the sea of ​​clouds below, holding the sword in her hand that was not stained with dust. At this time, the headmaster sighed and said, "Zhou Xing's soul lamp has gone out." Ling Xue felt a sharp pain in her heart, and she secretly vowed to find Zhou Xing.

In a teahouse in a small world, the storyteller was telling the unofficial history of "the abandoned prince and the female general" in vivid detail. By the window, a blind scholar chuckled, and the reflection of the teacup flashed with a golden light. He was Zhou Xing. Although his soul lamp had gone out, he was reborn with his tenacious will and his longing for Ling Xue.

Ling Xue found the star disk left by Zhou Xing in the crack of the sect scroll. She activated the star disk with blood, and nine thousand stars turned into stairs to ascend. She crushed the immortal steps and said firmly: "Nine thousand calamities are not complete if one calamity is missing." She was going to embark on a journey to find Zhou Xing, and she would meet him again no matter where in the world.

Su Li noticed Zhou Xing and Ling Xue's actions, and he activated the blood sacrifice formation. For a moment, all the teachers and students in the school fell into collective hysteria, their eyes were empty, and their behavior was weird.

Zhou Xing knew that time was running out, so he forced the black flower to devour the nightmare. The black flower grew wildly, covering the entire playground. However, the excessive use of force caused Zhou Xing to suffer a backlash, and blood oozed from his seven orifices, and his body was shaky.

Ling Xue felt distressed when she saw Zhou Xing's expression. She gritted her teeth and used the "Pseudo-Nascent Soul Explosion" skill that she had exchanged from the system to blast the center of the formation. The powerful impact of the explosion caused cracks to appear in the formation.

In the explosion, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue interlocked their fingers. The blood pattern on Zhou Xing's palm resonated with the ice bracelet on Ling Xue's wrist, emitting a dazzling light. At this moment, they felt the power of each other blending.

The system's countdown entered its final stage, and Ling Xue's heart became increasingly flustered. She was afraid of being separated from Zhou Xing, and afraid that after this catastrophe, they would never see each other again.

In order to prevent Ling Xue from disappearing after completing the mission, Zhou Xing made a life-or-death decision. He refined the black flower into his body, and from then on, a crack would appear in his heart every time he healed a person. He knew that doing so would cause him great pain, but he didn't want to lose Ling Xue again.

When Ling Xue was checking the school archives, she discovered a shocking truth. It turned out that the principal was the senior brother who died in the Ascension Tribulation. And the century-old cocoon hidden in the basement of the clinic was wriggling, as if a huge crisis was about to come.

On the day of the graduation ceremony, the entire campus was immersed in a joyful atmosphere. However, Su Li triggered a wave of resentful spirits at this time. Countless resentful spirits came from all directions, making shrill cries.

Zhou Xing and Ling Xue stood back to back, their palm lines intertwined into a light shield to resist the attacks of the evil spirits. Zhou Xing looked at Ling Xue and said softly, "The nine thousand and ninety calamities are not as good as making tea and listening to the rain with you."

Ling Xue's eyes flashed with emotion, and she held Zhou Xing's hand tightly. At this moment, the heavens rained down golden rain, washing away the karma on them. From then on, they were no longer the proud disciples of the Haoqing Sect of the Demon Sect, but ordinary psychological counselors and female teachers and doctors in this small world.

After the disaster, Zhou Xing continued to run his clinic. He found that every cured patient would bring a ray of golden light, which repaired the cracks in his heart.

Ling Xue quit her job at the school and became a school doctor. Every day when she bandaged the wounds of the students, the bandages would inexplicably turn into peach blossom shapes. The students said that there was magic in the school clinic, but only Ling Xue and Zhou Xing knew that this was the mark left by the disaster they had experienced together.

One day, a new inspector from the Education Bureau visited the school. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue were stunned when they saw the inspector's face. It was Su Li. Su Li was wearing a neat suit, and the totem on the back of his hand had turned into a watch.

Su Li smiled and handed them a gold-plated invitation: "The head of the family invites you two to attend the Demon Sect's annual meeting." Zhou Xing and Ling Xue looked at each other, with mixed feelings in their hearts. They knew that although this disaster was over, their fate with the Demon Sect was far from over.

At night, the moonlight sprinkled on the lake surface of the campus. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue sat by the lake, Ling Xue's fingertips were wrapped around the red string on Zhou Xing's chest. She asked softly, "What if the nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine calamities were all lies?"

Zhou Xing looked at her with deep affection in his eyes: "If you are my calamity, I am willing to fall into nine thousand reincarnations."

At this moment, in the reflection of the bronze mirror at the bottom of the lake, countless small worlds flickered like glass lamps. The lines on their palms turned into galaxies, winding and rising, as if telling the story of their future. After Ling Xue returned to her residence, she could not forget her experience in the tea garden. She made tea specimens from the moss on the broken monument and displayed them in the live broadcast room. Unexpectedly, this specimen triggered a bidding boom among collectors. For a time, the popularity of the live broadcast room remained high, and orders continued to flow in.

However, as the number of people watching the live broadcast increased, Zhou Xing discovered a strange phenomenon. Whenever the number of viewers in the live broadcast room reached a thousand, the tea tree would grow faster by a hundred years. This phenomenon made him realize that Ling Xue's special physique might have attracted the spies of the Demon Sect.

In order to find out the truth, Zhou Xing brought Ling Xue to the village archives. They found the record of Hao Qing Sect's exorcism three hundred years ago in the dusty county annals. On the yellowed pages was a totem of Zhou Xing's black iron tea scissors. This discovery made them more certain that there was a huge secret hidden behind this tea garden.

On a moonlit night, everything was quiet, and Zhou Xing was patrolling the tea garden as usual. Suddenly, he saw Ling Xue dancing in the moonlight, holding a live broadcast fill light in her hand. The fill light flashed with a strange light, illuminating the tea ridges. Then, something incredible happened, and a glowing star map emerged from the tea ridges.

Zhou Xing's heart moved, he recognized that this was the lost fragment of "Taixu Tea Classic". At the same time, Ling Xue also discovered her special ability. The special magnetic field she emitted during the live broadcast made the century-old tea tree bloom instantly. The snow-white flowers exuded a faint fragrance, just like a fairyland.

A rainstorm hit the tea garden, the wind was howling, and the tea trees were shaking in the wind and rain. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue hurried to protect the tea trees. In a panic, their palms touched. In an instant, a powerful force flowed between them, awakening the sealed life instruments. Ling Xue's hairpin turned into a blue phoenix, and Zhou Xing's tea scissors turned into a white tiger. The two instruments confronted each other, as if telling the entanglement of their fate.

Because the spiritual tea absorbed too much love, it triggered the warning of the nine-fold thunder tribulation in advance. In the night sky, purple thunderclouds covered the ten-mile tea garden, and the atmosphere was so depressing that it made people breathless.

At this time, a mysterious storyteller appeared in the village. He set up his posture and began to tell the story of "Tea Farmer and the Witch". Strangely, every time the wake-up wood was struck, the morning bell of Haoqing Sect could be heard. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue listened to this story and felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity in their hearts, as if this story was inextricably linked to them.

In order to help Zhou Xing survive the thunderstorm, Ling Xue decided to use a live drone to set up a tea protection array. She disguised her own life treasure as a fill light and installed it on the drone. However, under the impact of the thunderstorm, the fill light shattered, revealing half of the "Three Lives Stone Contract" which recorded the marriage contract of the two in their previous lives. This scene shocked Zhou Xing and Ling Xue, and they began to re-examine their relationship.

The thunderbolt officially arrived, and purple lightning roared like a giant dragon and smashed into the tea garden. Zhou Xing quickly cast a spell and bathed his body in tea soup, trying to resist this powerful thunderbolt. But in the fierce confrontation, the Suzaku tattoo of the chief disciple of the Haoqing Sect appeared on his right shoulder.

Ling Xue was extremely anxious when she saw Zhou Xing in danger. She ignored her own safety and forcibly activated the ancient live broadcast array. The wishes of 100,000 viewers gathered into a golden egg, which helped the two to reshape their immortal bones at the critical moment.

However, the tribulation did not end there. The ground suddenly collapsed, revealing a bronze mirror array engraved with vows from past lives. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue walked into the mirror array and saw the scenes of each other's nine hundred reincarnations. Every missed opportunity made them feel heartbroken, but they also knew that this was a test of love that they had to face.

After a difficult struggle, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue finally succeeded in overcoming the tribulation. Zhou Xing planted the spiritual tea into Ling Xue's live broadcast drone, and in an instant, the sky was filled with streamers, illuminating the entire tea garden. Those blooming camellias turned into ferry boats, carrying the villagers of the poor village to their new homes.

In the classics of Haoqing Sect, a new chapter "Love Tribulation" was added, which recorded "Live Broadcasting to Cross the World". And Ling Xue's village official notes became "Ninety-nine Leaves of Love Tribulation Tea Recipe", which became their precious memory of this experience.

Finally, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue came to the reborn ancient tea tree. Two bells were hanging on the tree, one was a modern live camera, and the other was an ancient jade slip. At the same time, the two bells sounded like the call of the crane. They smiled at each other, and embarked on a new journey hand in hand to welcome their own path to ascension.

The two seriously injured drifted to the Black Tooth Kingdom. When Zhou Xing applied medicine to Ling Xue, he found the tattoo mark on her ribs. Ling Xue smiled bitterly and said, "When I was ten years old, I stole the corvée list and was punished by my father to be imprisoned in the ice cell for three months."

Zhou Xing felt heartbroken, and he gently stroked Ling Xue's scars. The witch doctor of the Black Tooth Nation recognized Ling Xue as the descendant of the princess who had married a hundred years ago. He held out the bronze box for offering, and inside was half of a yin-yang fish jade pendant that fit perfectly with Zhou Xing's pocket watch.

The two of them merged the jade pendants together, and a ray of light flashed, as if a new chapter had begun.

At this time, the emperor was dying. Ling Xue rushed back to the country at night, but encountered a blockade. Zhou Xing lit a signal fire and summoned the fishermen along the coast. Three hundred fishing boats came with royal flags and children holding torches on the bows.

With everyone's efforts, they finally broke through the blockade. Ling Xue looked at Zhou Xing with gratitude and love in her eyes. She knew that no matter what the future held, they would face it together.

At the ceremony of the new emperor's enthronement, Zhou Xing presented the Black Tooth Kingdom with a letter of submission. Ling Xue stood on the Danbi and threw the jade pendant. The prime minister tried to stop him, but the hidden weapon on the jade pendant hit his official hat and killed him on the spot.

Everyone cheered and Zhou Xing and Ling Xue smiled at each other. In front of the rebuilt Sea God Temple, Ling Xue placed her mother's phoenix hairpin into Zhou Xing's palm and said, "The betrothal gift I want is not gold or silver, but a promise not to collect maritime taxes for 50 years."

Zhou Xing nodded solemnly, knowing Ling Xue's wish. Six treasure ships carried the young emperor and the learned monk out to sea, and Ling Xue carved the combined names of the two on the stern. In the salty sea breeze, the cry of a baby was heard, which was a new hope.

From then on, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue joined hands to protect this sea area and write their own legendary story. Under the bright moon over the sea, their love is like the tide, endless.

Zhou Xing slowly woke up, feeling sore all over, as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer. He opened his eyes and found himself in an unfamiliar room, filled with a faint smell of spices and ingredients. He was full of doubts, and many unfamiliar memories flooded into his mind like a tide.

It turned out that he had become a cook in the imperial kitchen of the Great Zhou Dynasty. This imperial kitchen seemed to be just an ordinary place for cooking, but in fact it was a secret place planted by the Demon Sect in this world.
