My Taoist buddy has practiced surrogacy

Chapter 1375: Hard Talk
Zhou Xing felt his eyes spinning, and when he regained consciousness, the memories of his original self in this world suddenly flooded into his mind. He had become a proud and arrogant young marquis of the Daliang Dynasty, and his fiancée Ling Xue was actually the cold and aloof daughter of the Shangshu Mansion.

Today was the day for the two to discuss the marriage, but Zhou Xing deliberately put on airs and was reluctant to meet Ling Xue. In the garden of the Marquis's mansion, he mocked the marriage in front of a group of singing and dancing maids. "Humph, the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion looks rigid and boring. This Marquis doesn't want to marry her." Zhou Xing said as he threw the stone in his hand at random. Unexpectedly, the stone flew straight in the direction of Ling Xue.

At this time, Ling Xue was standing in the corridor not far away, quietly waiting for Zhou Xing. The stone came at a high speed and was about to hit her, but Ling Xue was not in a hurry. She just raised her sleeve slightly and easily blocked the stone. A broken gap appeared on her sleeve instantly, but she just glanced at it lightly and returned to her cold expression.

When Zhou Xing saw this scene, he inexplicably felt guilty, but his arrogant personality made him unwilling to admit it. "Humph, it's just good luck." He said stubbornly.

The two were forced to ride in the same carriage to the palace. The atmosphere in the carriage was very awkward. Zhou Xing secretly glanced at Ling Xue, only to see that she was resting with her eyes closed, with a cold expression. Zhou Xing's heart moved, and he secretly used his spiritual power to keep her stable. Just as he was using his spiritual power, Ling Xue suddenly opened her eyes and said coldly: "My Lord, don't force yourself, I can keep myself stable." Zhou Xing was blocked by her words and felt a little angry, but when he saw the alienation in her eyes, he inexplicably dared not speak again.

After entering the palace, the emperor gave them poisoned wine "Jade Pot Ice", nominally to test their harmony. Zhou Xing looked at the cup of poisoned wine and made a plan in his heart. He pretended to accidentally knock over the cup, and then used his spiritual power to dissolve the poisoned wine into nothingness by wiping it. Ling Xue watched from the side, her fingertips trembling slightly. She noticed Zhou Xing's actions, and she also had a different feeling for this arrogant marquis.

After returning to the mansion, Zhou Xing sensed a strange atmosphere in the mansion. He secretly investigated and found that his stepmother actually raised evil cultivators in the mansion. These evil cultivators secretly carried out some evil activities in the underground secret room of the mansion. When Zhou Xing was about to take action, he heard Ling Xue's voice. It turned out that Ling Xue had already noticed the stepmother's conspiracy. She came here one step ahead and had set a trap.

The two joined forces to fight against the evil cultivator. During the battle, Zhou Xing was accidentally injured by the evil cultivator's poison while trying to protect Ling Xue. He endured the pain and fought off the evil cultivator together with Ling Xue. After the battle, Ling Xue looked at the injured Zhou Xing and made an exception to bandage his wound. During the bandaging process, their fingertips touched, and a feeling like an electric current spread throughout their bodies. Zhou Xing's heartbeat accelerated involuntarily. He secretly glanced at Ling Xue, but found that Ling Xue was also lowering her head and did not dare to look at him.

At this time, the war in the northern border broke out. The emperor ordered Zhou Xing and Ling Xue to comprehend the "Heavenly Evolution Array Diagram" in the library within three days. If they could not comprehend it, they would be sent to the battlefield. Time was tight, and the two studied day and night in the library. However, they encountered a bottleneck and could not comprehend the mystery of the "Heavenly Evolution Array Diagram".

At night, Ling Xue went out to relax and accidentally discovered an ancient altar. The relief on the altar seemed to hide some secrets. After careful study, she found that the relief was actually the clue of "Tian Yan Zhen Tu". She hurried back to the library and went to the altar with Zhou Xing. The two practiced the formation on the altar and finally attracted the stars. A ray of light flashed by, and the two had their first candid conversation in this light.

"My Lord, I was prejudiced against you in the past, but today I discovered that you are not what I imagined." Ling Xue said softly.

"Hmph, I'm not that bad. You're just too cold and aloof, making it hard for people to approach you." Zhou Xing said stubbornly, but his tone lacked the arrogance of the past.

Although the two successfully comprehended the "Heavenly Formation Diagram", the emperor still ordered them to go to the northern border battlefield. Zhou Xing used the magic of his previous life to summon the puppet beast of the Demon Sect. However, his behavior was questioned by the general. The general thought he was an evil person and wanted to punish him.

Seeing this, Ling Xue stepped forward and used the secret technique of the Shangshu Mansion to cover up the aura of the puppet beasts. She skillfully performed magic to make the general think that these puppet beasts were ordinary mechanical beasts. The general then dispelled his doubts and allowed them to stay in the army.

At night, the enemy attacked the camp. Zhou Xing pretended to be seriously injured and lured the enemy commander into a trap. Ling Xue set up the "Nine Cold Soul Locking Formation" to trap the enemy commander. The two cooperated tacitly and successfully defeated the enemy commander.

However, the battle was not over. After the main force of the enemy learned that the commander had been captured, they launched an even more frantic attack. In a fierce battle, Zhou Xing took a poisoned arrow to save Ling Xue. The poisoned arrow hit his chest, and his clothes were stained with blood.

Ling Xue looked at the injured Zhou Xing, and was extremely worried. She tore up the marriage contract in public, and decided to ask the family forces for help in the name of her fiancée. Zhou Xing looked at Ling Xue's actions, and felt touched and distressed. "Silly girl, why do you have to do this for me?" Zhou Xing said weakly.

"My Lord, you have given so much for me, how can I just watch you get into trouble?" Ling Xue said firmly.

The two of them shared life and death on the battlefield, which deepened their relationship. However, the way of heaven did not intend to let them go. Suddenly, dark clouds covered the sky, and a thunderbolt struck, turning into the "Cliff of Broken Love" in Ling Xue's fantasy world.

In the illusion, Ling Xue personally pushed Zhou Xing off the cliff. At that moment, Zhou Xing was filled with despair. However, just when he thought he was doomed, he grabbed Ling Xue's sleeve. He used the magic pattern from his previous life to imprint Ling Xue's forehead and said loudly: "The way of heaven wants you to cut off your emotions, but I want you to remember every inch of your heartbeat."

In reality, the two people hugged each other tightly in the thunder tribulation, their hair was covered with frost, but they didn't care at all. There was only each other in their eyes, as if there were only the two of them in the whole world.

After the tribulation, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue found that their swords intertwined to form a yin-yang fish jade pendant. When they touched the jade pendant, fragments of memories from their previous lives emerged. Zhou Xing saw Ling Xue blocking the nine-day thunder and fire for him, and Ling Xue also saw Zhou Xing's feat of reversing time and space for her on the Zhuxian Terrace. Tears flowed down their cheeks involuntarily, and they finally understood each other's feelings.

After the catastrophe, the two returned to the Haoqing Sect. However, they were reprimanded by the elders for using too much emotion. The elders believed that they had fallen into emotional barriers during the catastrophe and needed to be punished.

In order to take the blame for Ling Xue, Zhou Xing voluntarily jumped into the "Pool of Regret". The water in the "Pool of Regret" can make people forget all worldly emotions, and it is one of the most cruel punishments in the Demon Sect. Ling Xue watched Zhou Xing jump into the pool, heartbroken. She rushed into the "Pool of Regret" regardless of everything, and held Zhou Xing's fingers tightly. "Since the way of heaven is unforgiving, I will accompany you to eternal damnation." Ling Xue said firmly.

The two used blood as a medium to recast the Yin-Yang contract at the bottom of the pool. Their love was sublimated in this endless pain. However, their fate did not end there. The sect's forbidden area suddenly rioted, and a huge crisis came. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue joined hands to fight against the incarnation of the inner demon. During the battle, Ling Xue's hairpin shattered, revealing the dagger "Duanyuan" from her previous life hidden inside. Zhou Xing stroked the edge of the blade and chuckled: "In this life, we should use it to cut off all the shackles that block us."

The final battle came, and the heavens sent down nine layers of purple thunder tribulations. This thunder tribulation was so powerful that each one seemed to be able to tear a person's soul apart. Zhou Xing used the forbidden magic of the Demon Sect to resist the thunder tribulation, and his body was shaky in the thunder tribulation.

Ling Xue looked at Zhou Xing, feeling extremely painful. She burned her blood and essence to create a lotus platform to hold Zhou Xing up. She decided to share the rest of the thunder tribulation with Zhou Xing. The two exchanged the same heart spell in the lightning, and their figures seemed extremely firm in the thunder and lightning.

After the thunderbolt, the two were lucky enough to survive. When they ascended, they looked back at this world. Zhou Xing put the Marquis's golden seal into Ling Xue's palm and said affectionately: "Next time you experience the thunderbolt, it will be your turn to be the arrogant one." Ling Xue smiled gently, and that smile was as bright as a flower in spring. The two of them embarked on the road to ascension hand in hand.

This discovery made them even more certain that there was a huge secret hidden behind this pharmacy.

On a moonlit night, everything was quiet, and Zhou Xing was inspecting the pharmacy as usual. Suddenly, he saw Ling Xue sorting medicinal materials under the moonlight, holding a live broadcast fill light in her hand. The fill light flashed with a strange light, illuminating the shelves. Then, something incredible happened, and a glowing star map appeared on the shelf.

Zhou Xing's heart moved, he recognized that this was the lost fragment of "Taixu Dan Jing". 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 medicinal herbs bloom instantly, and the flowers exuded a faint fragrance, just like a fairyland.

A rainstorm suddenly hit the pharmacy, and the wind was howling. The medicinal materials on the shelves were shaking in the wind and rain. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue hurriedly protected the medicinal materials. 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 medicine pestle turned into a white tiger. The two instruments confronted each other, as if telling the entanglement of their fate.

Because the elixir absorbed too much love, it triggered the Nine-fold Thunder Tribulation early. In the night sky, purple thunderclouds enveloped the pharmacy, and the atmosphere was so depressing that it made people breathless.

At this time, a mysterious storyteller appeared at the door of the pharmacy. He took his stance and began to tell the story of "The Pharmacist and the Witch". Strangely, every time the wake-up wood was struck, the morning bell of the 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 live broadcast equipment to set up a medicine protection array. She disguised her own life magic weapon as a fill light and installed it on the equipment. However, under the impact of the thunderstorm, the fill light shattered, revealing half of the "Three Lives Stone Contract" that 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 with each other.

The thunder tribulation officially arrived, and purple lightning roared like a giant dragon and smashed towards the pharmacy. Zhou Xing quickly cast a spell, using medicine to temper his body, trying to resist this powerful thunder tribulation. 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 elixir into Ling Xue's live broadcast drone, and in an instant, the sky was filled with streamers, illuminating the entire pharmacy. Those blooming medicinal herbs 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 Save the World". And Ling Xue's store manager's manual became "Ninety-nine Flavors Love Tribulation Pharmacopoeia", which became their precious memory of this experience.

Finally, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue came to the reborn ancient medicine tree. There were two bells 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.

One day, they found a common client - an old professor who lived alone. The old professor had difficulty walking and often needed to buy medicine and daily necessities. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue took the initiative to buy for the old professor for free and delivered them to his door. The old professor was very grateful to them and greeted them warmly every time he saw them.

Zhou Xing's online loan debt collector found his residence and blocked him at the door. The debt collector threatened him viciously and asked him to pay back the money as soon as possible. At this time, Ling Xue came back. When she saw this scene, she raised her mobile phone to record the video without hesitation and shouted: "If you do this again, I will call the police!" The debt collector was frightened by her momentum, hesitated for a while, and finally left.

After this incident, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue's relationship became even deeper. They worked hard and saved a little money. Zhou Xing used the money to buy a second-hand electric tricycle, sprayed the words "Day and Night Flash Delivery" on it, and pasted a fluorescent little sun hand-painted by Ling Xue on the body of the tricycle.

However, Ling Xue's father did not give up the idea of ​​breaking them up. He forged a recording of Zhou Xing's domestic violence and sent it to Ling Xue. After seeing the recording, Ling Xue was heartbroken. She rushed to Zhou Xing's house in the rain to question him, but found that the so-called "domestic violence" was just a lie edited by her father. The moment the truth came out, Ling Xue burst into tears and tore up the plane ticket, releasing the grievances and pain in her heart.

After going through so many things, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue became more determined to be together.
