My Taoist buddy has practiced surrogacy

Chapter 1395 Announcement
On the surface, he pretended to be digging seriously, but secretly he was looking for evidence that the queen was colluding with the enemy country.

During the excavation, Zhou Xing finally found the secret letter between the Empress and the enemy country. He was overjoyed and was about to take the secret letter away when he was attacked by the mechanical beast.

The mechanical beast was huge and extremely powerful. Zhou Xing and his men were no match for it. Just when they were in dire straits, Ling Xue arrived.

Ling Xue used blood as a guide to activate the Haoqing Sect's mental method. She teamed up with Zhou Xing to fight against the mechanical beast. In the fierce battle, the two people's consciousness briefly merged.

"A hundred years ago, you and I fought side by side at Zhuxiantai. Do you still remember?" Ling Xue suddenly said.

Zhou Xing was startled. He looked at Ling Xue and said, "I remember now. It turns out we have known each other for a long time."

The two recalled the battle a hundred years ago, and their hearts were filled with emotion. They became more determined to have a mutual affection.

Just when they were about to defeat the mechanical beast, it suddenly launched a final attack. Zhou Xing was hit in the chest by the mechanical beast in order to protect Ling Xue. His chest bone was fractured and blood was flowing.

Seeing this, Ling Xue was heartbroken. She cut her wrist and passed the magic pattern to Zhou Xing to prolong his life. The two interlocked their fingers, and the ice around them blossomed into red lotus.

After the mechanical beast was defeated, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue returned to the palace with the secret letter. They presented the secret letter to the emperor. After reading the secret letter, the emperor was furious. He immediately ordered the queen to be banished to the cold palace and made public her collusion with the enemy country.

The empress was deposed, and the court rejoiced. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue also became meritorious officials of the court. However, their misfortune was not over yet.

In order to commend Zhou Xing for his achievements, the emperor decided to make him a king. However, Zhou Xing refused the emperor's reward. He pointed at Ling Xue's phoenix crown and said, "What I want is not the throne, but the half-inch shadow cast by her eyelashes when she lowers her eyes."

Ling Xue was deeply moved after hearing Zhou Xing's words. She looked at Zhou Xing with love in her eyes.

However, just when they thought they could live happily together, the Haoqing Sect sent down a thunderbolt, which split the imperial mausoleum and revealed the ascension platform.

Zhou Xing knew that this was the last stage of his tribulation. He had to ascend to the ascension platform alone and endure the backlash of ninety-nine emotional tribulations.

Ling Xue looked at Zhou Xing, her eyes full of reluctance. She said, "Jing Heng, I won't let you face this alone. I want to go through this disaster with you."

Zhou Xing shook his head: "Princess, you can't go. This is my personal calamity. You must stay in the human world."

Ling Xue shook her head firmly: "No, I want to be with you. No matter life or death, I will not leave you."

After that, Ling Xue tore off the pearl curtain of the Phoenix Crown and stepped onto the Ascension Platform with Zhou Xing. She kissed Zhou Xing's bloodstained lips in the thunderbolt.

"Three hundred years from now, by the Yaochi Lake, I will be waiting for you, brewing snow tea." Ling Xue said.

Zhou Xing looked at Ling Xue, his eyes full of affection: "Okay, I will definitely come back."

The two of them hugged each other tightly in the thunder, and their figures gradually became blurred...

After the backlash of the ninety-nine love tribulations, Zhou Xing's hair turned white like snow. His body became very weak, but he was always thinking of Ling Xue in his heart.

At the same time, Ling Xue took charge of state affairs in the human world. She transformed the jade hairpin into the token of the Haoqing Sect to suppress the Demon Abyss. Every night at midnight, she would trace Zhou Xing's eyebrows and eyes in her memory in front of the mirror.

Time flies, three hundred years have passed. Zhou Xing finally completed his mission. He returned to the human world and reunited with Ling Xue.

When the two met again, they were both very excited. They boarded the ascension platform hand in hand, ready to ascend to the upper realm.

The moment they stepped into the Heavenly Gate, Xiao Jingheng and Ling Xue's swords merged into one, transforming into a vast galaxy. The magic pattern and the phoenix seal intertwined to form the Twin Lotus Totem that had been passed down for thousands of years in the Haoqing Sect.

From then on, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue lived a happy life in the upper world. They practiced together and explored the mysteries of the heaven. And their love in the small world also became a beautiful memory in their hearts.

The Qionglin Banquet in the Yue Kingdom's imperial city was a lively scene. The newly crowned No. 1 Scholar Zhou Xing was wearing a No. 1 Scholar robe, and his outstanding temperament attracted everyone's attention. He stood at the main seat of the banquet, but his eyes were a little blurred.

At this moment, a poisoned bluebird suddenly flew into the banquet hall and landed on Zhou Xing's shoulder. The bluebird held a half-bloody marriage certificate in its mouth. Zhou Xing was startled and quickly took the marriage certificate.

Before he could take a closer look, the third prince mocked him in public, "It's strange that the top scholar gets along so well with this beast." Zhou Xing frowned and ignored the third prince's ridicule.

After the banquet, Zhou Xing returned to the inn. As soon as he sat down, he heard the sound of tiles creaking on the roof. He was alert and immediately chased after him.

On the roof, Zhou Xing saw a masked woman. He captured her in a few moves, and just as he was about to unveil her, a jade plaque with "Jingguogong Mansion" engraved on it fell from her sleeve.

Zhou Xing stopped moving, and the woman took the opportunity to press the golden hairpin against his throat and said coldly: "If you don't want to die, let me go."

Zhou Xing looked at the woman and found an unhealed scar on her wrist. He took out the golden wound medicine specially provided by the palace from his bosom and handed it to the woman: "Miss, put down the golden hairpin first, let me treat your wound."

The woman hesitated for a moment and finally put down the hairpin. Zhou Xing took the hairpin and treated the woman's wound. While treating the wound, he caught a glimpse of the three words "Ning Qingyu" on the marriage certificate, and felt that this matter was not simple.

Late at night, Zhou Xing was resting in his room. He suddenly discovered that the marriage certificate had a secret. After burning it with candlelight, the magic runes appeared on the paper.

He found a secret passage under the bed, and walked along it, and saw Ling Xue and the third prince having a secret conversation. However, he soon discovered that this was faked by someone using puppetry.

Just as Zhou Xing was about to leave, a group of men in black appeared and wanted to kill him to silence him. Zhou Xing fought back, but the other side was too numerous and he gradually became unable to resist.

At the same time, Ling Xue disguised herself as a man and sneaked into the brothel. She found the missing maid in the brothel and found secret letters with the enemy country in her room.

However, she was trapped here by the Third Prince. The Third Prince brought a group of his men and surrounded Ling Xue.

"Ning Qingyu, you dare to communicate with the enemy country. Today is the day you die!" said the third prince with a sneer.

Ling Xue looked at the Third Prince, her eyes full of anger: "Third Prince, stop slandering me! This is clearly a conspiracy designed by you!"

Just when Ling Xue was in dire straits, Zhou Xing arrived. Seeing Ling Xue trapped, he felt nervous and rushed over immediately.

Zhou Xing mobilized the patrol army as the top scholar and trapped the third prince and his men in the brothel. He protected Ling Xue behind him and confronted the third prince.

"Third Prince, you framed loyal officials and colluded with the enemy country. I will not let you go today!" Zhou Xing said.

The Third Prince sneered: "Zhou Xing, what do you think you can do to me? I am a prince. If you dare to touch a hair on my head, it would be disrespectful!"

After Zhou Xing brought Ling Xue back to the inn, he decided to tell fortunes for her and change her fate. He took out the astrolabe and began to calculate Ling Xue's fate.

After some calculations, Zhou Xing's face became very solemn: "Miss, I see that your life star is corroded by the evil spirit of 'Lonely Phoenix'. You need to solve this situation within seven days, otherwise your life will be in danger." Ling Xue was a little worried after hearing Zhou Xing's words. But she still pretended to be calm and said: "Then according to what you said, how should we solve it?"

Zhou Xing thought for a moment and said, "I have a way, but I need you to cooperate with me in a play."

The next day, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue were paraded in a carriage. When the Third Prince learned about this, he sent someone to shoot the horse pulling the carriage. The carriage lost control and rushed towards the cliff beside it.

Zhou Xing was quick to grab Ling Xue's waist and turned to avoid falling off the cliff. His clothes were stained with blood, but he still protected Ling Xue tightly.

Ling Xue looked at Zhou Xing and felt touched. She found that she had a special feeling for this man.

At night, the two of them were healing in the cave. Zhou Xing tore off his official uniform to bandage Ling Xue's wound. Ling Xue looked at Zhou Xing's actions and felt a little shy.

She suddenly bit Zhou Xing's finger and wrote a blood oath on the stone mural: "Today I, Ning Qingyu, and Zhou Xing have made a life and death contract. If I break it, I will be struck by lightning!"

Zhou Xing looked at the blood oath on the stone wall, and a sense of pride surged in his heart. He said, "Don't worry, young lady. I, Zhou Xing, will protect you."

The imperial edict granting marriage arrived at the Duke of Jingguo's residence. Zhou Xing protested in the court on the grounds that "the eight characters conflicted with each other".

After the old Duke learned about this, he broke into the palace holding a tiger talisman. He revealed the evidence that the third prince had privately trained the Black Iron Army and intended to rebel.

For a moment, the situation in the court was tense. The third prince was furious, but he had no way to refute.

On the day of the wedding, the rebels broke through the imperial city. Zhou Xing activated the star array buried under the imperial examination hall, trapping 20,000 rebels in the array.

Ling Xue was wearing armor and holding a gun, guarding the Suzaku Gate. She looked at the star array arranged by Zhou Xing with admiration in her heart.

At this moment, the Third Prince took advantage of the chaos to attack Zhou Xing. Seeing this, Ling Xue rushed over without hesitation and blocked the fatal blow for Zhou Xing.

Zhou Xing looked at the injured Ling Xue, and his heart was furious. He mobilized the original power of the Demon Sect and prepared to fight the Third Prince to the death.

However, the warning thunderclouds of Haoqing Sect descended, and Zhou Xing realized that he could no longer use the power of the Demon Sect recklessly.

In the Imperial Temple, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue stood facing each other. Zhou Xing used cinnabar to draw a contract formation on Ling Xue's forehead.

"This formation will cost me half of my lifespan, and I will bear the calamity for you." Zhou Xing said.

Ling Xue looked at Zhou Xing, her eyes full of emotion: "Why do you treat me like this?"

Zhou Xing smiled and said, "Because you are my beloved. I am willing to give everything for you."

At this moment, the Third Prince led the Netherworld Cavalry out of the ground. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue joined hands to fight.

Ling Xue's phoenix hairpin turned into three thousand silver needles, piercing the enemy's armor. Zhou Xing used blood as ink to rewrite the core of the city defense formation, strengthening the defense.

The two fought back to back, and in the fierce battle, their feelings grew deeper and deeper.

In the final battle, the Third Prince used the forbidden weapon of the Demon Sect. Zhou Xing forcibly broke through the realm in order to protect Ling Xue.

He was bleeding from all seven orifices, but he still held Ling Xue's hand tightly. Ling Xue looked at Zhou Xing, her heart full of heartache.

She bit her tongue and passed her life essence to Zhou Xing. Their hair intertwined to form a knot, and they fought against the Third Prince together.

Nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine thunderbolts split the capital of Yue Kingdom. Zhou Xing's hair turned white like snow, but he still held Ling Xue's hand tightly.

Ling Xue disassembled the Phoenix Coronet into twelve jade swords, forming the Haoqing Sect's sect formation. The two embraced each other in the fire, and their swords turned into twin lotus flowers blooming in the sea of ​​clouds.

On the ascension platform, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue smiled at each other. Zhou Xing drew eyebrows for Ling Xue, and Ling Xue straightened Zhou Xing's collar.

"This time it's my turn to wait for you for three thousand years." Ling Xue said with a chuckle.

Zhou Xing nodded: "Okay, I'll wait for you."

The two of them walked into the Heavenly Gate hand in hand and disappeared in the thunder. From then on, they lived a happy life in the upper world, and this experience in the small world also became a beautiful memory in their hearts.

In the cold winter, snow was falling heavily, and the sky and earth were covered with silver. Zhou Xing, dressed in a messy costume, stumbled forward in the wind and snow. His face was full of fatigue and fear, and behind him was a group of wolf-like pursuers.

Zhou Xing was a loyal minister of the court, but he was framed by treacherous officials and his entire family was raided. He was the only one who managed to escape. Now, he was forced into a desperate situation by the pursuers, and his heart was filled with despair.

Just when he was about to be caught up, a sharp arrow suddenly shot from a distance and accurately hit the throat of a pursuer. Then, a nimble figure rushed out from the woods and rushed towards the pursuer like a cheetah.

The person who came was Ling Xue, the daughter of a hunter in the mountains. She came out hunting today and happened to see Zhou Xing being chased. Ling Xue was agile and defeated the pursuers in a few moves. She held a scimitar and looked at the remaining pursuers coldly: "Get out! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, the pursuers fled. Ling Xue turned around and looked at Zhou Xing. Seeing that he was covered in wounds and breathing weakly, she couldn't help but feel a little pity in her heart. She squatted down and asked, "Are you okay?"

Zhou Xing opened his eyes with difficulty, looked at Ling Xue, and said weakly: "Thank you for saving my life, young lady. I... I was framed by someone, and ended up like this."

Ling Xue frowned and said, "Come back to the hut with me first, I will heal you." After that, she helped Zhou Xing up and walked towards the hut not far away.

In the hut, Ling Xue started a fire and boiled herbs for Zhou Xing. While busying herself, she said, "There are often herbalists getting lost in this mountain. My father taught me how to use herbs to save people. Your wound is festering, and the rotten flesh must be cut off."

Zhou Xing watched Ling Xue treat his wounds skillfully, feeling grateful and curious: "Young lady, you have such great medical skills, why do you live in this deep mountain?"

Ling Xue smiled and said, "My father and I are both hunters and have lived in these mountains all our lives. I have been hunting and collecting herbs with my father since I was a child and have learned some skills."

Zhou Xing nodded, and his favorable impression of Ling Xue increased. At this moment, Zhou Xing suddenly found that the wolf tooth pendant around Ling Xue's neck flashed a strange red light. He was startled, but did not say anything.

A few days later, Zhou Xing's injuries had healed a lot. Ling Xue took him to the forest to hunt. The two of them shuttled through the forest, looking for prey.

Suddenly, a snow fox jumped out from the bushes nearby, attracting their attention. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue immediately chased after it. They chased the snow fox to the edge of a cold pond, only to find that the snow fox had disappeared without a trace.

At the edge of the cold pond, Zhou Xing saw his own reflection in the water, and the scene of his past life being ripped out of his heart by the elders of the sect emerged in his mind. He felt a sharp pain in his heart, and his Taoism almost collapsed.

Ling Xue noticed something was wrong with Zhou Xing and quickly held his hand.
