At the beginning of the sage cultivation base, the empress became an ex-wife

Chapter 163 Flowers are old flowers, but love is new

Since then, Xu Ze and Bai Shao have talked a lot.

Bai Shao’s suggestion is.

If Xu Ze really wanted to protect Ye Lingxiao and keep his relatives and friends away from danger, he should go into the wilderness and embark on the road to become emperor.

Bahuang is where all the emperor sects are located. Although Xu Ze and Ye Lingxiao will go there, it will be more dangerous, but it can also keep the Taoist Sect and the Xu family away from danger.

After all, only absolute strength can protect everything.

There is one wasteland among the eight wastelands, which is called ancient wasteland.

Since the Ancient Wasteland is where the 'Emperor Road' opens, the Emperor Road is also called the 'Ancient Wasteland Emperor Road'.

"Since the emperor's path is in the wilderness, why does the emperor's sect still have its layout in Jiuzhou? Wouldn't it be better to just let the 'deserted people' follow the emperor's path and obtain the throne?" Xu Ze asked.

"Because a deserted man cannot become an emperor." Bai Shao sighed:

"Ye Lingxiao's sword turned Jiuzhou into eight deserts, and it also cut off the Tao in the hearts of the deserted people!"

"The way has been broken, how can the emperor become emperor?"

"I am walking around Kyushu in my spiritual avatar, just to make up for the 'remnant path' in my heart with the help of Kyushu Avenue!"

"It's helpless, maybe this is just an extravagant wish."

"So that's how it is." Xu Ze was stunned.

He had already guessed that the white peony root walking around the world and curing people must be related to becoming an emperor.But I didn't expect that there was such a reason.

He also understood.

No wonder everyone in the world says that the Great Dao is incomplete nowadays, so it has become extremely difficult to become a saint, emperor, or even an immortal.

It turns out that this so-called 'incomplete road' refers to the road to becoming an emperor in the minds of the deserted people!

"Is there any way?" Xu Ze asked.

In his previous life, Bai Shao had saved his life.If he can help him become emperor in this life, he may be able to truly repay this kindness.

But in response, Bai Shao just smiled and did not answer.

……

……

Next, the two chatted a lot.Before I knew it, several hours had passed.

Xu Ze stood up and said goodbye.

As he walked along the mountain road, he thought about it.

Bahuang is the place where Emperor Zheng was established, and it seemed like he had to go there.

But Bai Shao once reminded.

It is easy to enter the Eight Desolations, but it is difficult to get out of the Eight Desolations.

Even if you are not a native of the wilderness, once you enter the Eight Wastelands, you will be locked in it, and it will be difficult to leave unless you prove the emperor.

Difficulty does not mean that it is impossible to do.

According to Bai Shao, if the many emperors of Bahuang want to fully appear in Kyushu, it is not impossible, but the cost is extremely high.

And the price is to kill Dao!
Only after he has cut off all his remaining ways, scattered his cultivation, and returned to a mortal body can he appear in the Kyushu region.

Obviously, no one is willing to pay this price.

Therefore, Xu Ze basically does not need to worry about the situation where the Emperor Sect will completely appear in Kyushu and bring a lot of trouble to the Dao Sheng Sect.

"Self-cultivation? Ye Lingxiao seems to have also practiced self-cultivation?"

"She was the one who imprisoned the Emperor Sect in Bahuang, so the reason why she took off her cultivation was definitely not to leave Bahuang, but for other purposes..."

"If this is to imprison the world and accompany Master through life after life, then it doesn't make sense."

"After all, Ye Lingxiao's cultivation is still there at this time! Otherwise Bai Shao wouldn't have said that her cultivation would gradually recover!"

"Is this a rumor? Or did Ye Lingxiao really take a break from cultivation, but then restored it through some method?"

While muttering, Xu Ze kept thinking.

He used to not care about these things, but now that Ye Lingxiao has become half of his junior sister, he naturally wants to know more.

Xu Ze had a vague feeling that this might be another secret!
He originally wanted to turn back and ask Bai Shao about the matter again, but after thinking about it, he finally gave up the idea.

Because at this moment, the true master is in the glazed coffin inside his spiritual ring!
Rather than keep asking Bai Shao, it is better to wait until Ye Lingxiao wakes up and then ask the latter!In this way, the information obtained will be more accurate!

"I thought it was a female sword emperor, but I didn't expect it to be a female sword fairy."

"I thought it was the 'only sword', but I never thought it was the 'only immortal in the world'."

"What's even more unexpected is that such a person has become my junior sister."

Xu Ze sighed while shaking his head.

It really is impermanent!

Compared to this life, he was really ignorant in his last life!

After sighing, Xu Ze continued to move forward.

It was already night, with stars on the chessboard and a bright moon hanging high.

After walking through winding paths and dense forests of ancient trees, Xu Ze finally arrived at the foot of the mountain.

He looked forward and was startled.

He saw someone.

It was a woman wearing a light blue straight skirt, standing under the night light, with her hands behind her back, kicking stones on the road as if she was bored.

The moonlight shone on her face, reflecting her fair cheeks.

Although the surroundings were slightly dim, her beautiful eyes with light blue luster were so eye-catching and beautiful. "Shi Yi? Why are you here?" Xu Ze asked after a brief moment of surprise.

Hearing this, Shi Yi's delicate body trembled.

"I, I'll just come over and take a look." She buried her head and hesitated.

Decades passed.

Either because he understands his original intention, or because he has had enough of the torment of missing him.She no longer hides her heart with a cold appearance, and she adopts the attitude of a daughter every time she smiles.

Just one look at it makes people's hearts tremble.

"What's so good about it? Could it be that white peony root can be harmful to me?" Xu Ze couldn't laugh or cry.

For some reason, Shi Yi's face turned red.

The red glow on her face is so conspicuous and moving under the moonlight.

"This is indeed impossible, but not necessarily in other respects..." she muttered.

"What did you say?" Xu Ze asked.

"No, nothing."

Shi Yi shook her head hurriedly.

Seeing that Xu Ze didn't come forward for a long time, she couldn't bear it anymore and took the initiative to greet him.

"Xu Ze, come with me for a walk." When she came behind her, she raised her head slightly and combed her temples.

As they spoke, the two looked directly into each other's eyes.

The blue luster in Shi Yi's eyes shone uncertainly, and the faintly trembling eyes were like a pool of spring water, making people fall into it uncontrollably.

"Okay, where to go?" Xu Ze smiled after being stunned for a moment.

"Just take a walk. You haven't been to my Moon Covering Peak yet, have you? Can I take you to see it?" Shi Yi also smiled.

"it is good."

The conversation between the two ended here, and they walked towards Hiyue Peak at the same time.

Along the way, the two of them walked in step.

Although both of them were silent, neither of them felt embarrassed. Instead, they could feel an ambiguous atmosphere brewing around them.

Under the influence of the atmosphere, the two got closer and closer, and the shadows under the moonlight became longer and longer.

Time passes quietly, quiet and comfortable.

Finally, the two arrived at Moon-covering Peak and came to the peak master's pavilion.

I don’t know since when, a spiritual bamboo and peach tree was planted in the open space in front of the pavilion.

The peach tree is thick and tall. Although I don’t know how long it has been growing, judging from the lush leaves, someone must be taking good care of it.

At this moment, the spiritual bamboo and peach trees are swaying, and the peach blossoms are falling.

The peach blossoms fell with the wind, rising and falling with the wind, and happened to fall on Xu Ze's shoulders and Shi Yi's feet.

"Do you want to enjoy the flowers?" Shi Yi asked.

"Miss you?" Xu Ze asked.

If it was just a matter of enjoying flowers and accompanied by a beautiful woman, he would not refuse.

But if you are missing someone, especially his ex-wife, then it’s okay if you don’t appreciate the flowers.

Xu Ze thinks it is the latter.

Because it is impossible for Shi Yi not to know the significance of this spiritual bamboo and peach tree.In the past, Shi Yi's actions were all for Gu Wanqing.

Who would have guessed...

"Xu Ze, the flowers are old flowers, but beneath them are new people."

"I planted this spiritual bamboo and peach tree decades ago. During your absence, I only spent time in seclusion and watching flowers."

"I used to have a lot of worries, and I used to feel unworthy. But over the past few decades, I finally understood a fact."

"Some things are hard to escape. Some feelings become deeper the more you press them."

Speaking of this, Shi Yi took a deep breath.

She stepped forward slowly and placed herself under the spiritual bamboo peach.

She turned around and let the peach blossoms cover her shoulders and fall on her black hair.

At this moment, the hem of her skirt moved with the wind and swayed with the flowers.

With a smile on her face, she opened her lips and said, "What I like is not flowers, but you."

"For decades, what I have been watching is not the flowers, but your return."

"Xu Ze, I want more than just friends."

"Love is under the tree, meaning is in the heart."

"Are you willing to accompany me to watch the flowers bloom and wait for them to fall?"

Her voice was a little trembling, but more of it was spoken with ease and full of expectation.

Her eyes were so bright at this moment, making it difficult for Xu Ze to look away.

"So, this is a confession?" Xu Ze asked.

"Well, a confession from an 'old nun' or 'old witch'."

"..."
