Please call me Huanxian

Chapter 351 Traveling Together and Discovering

There was a sudden knock on the door, interrupting the intimate embrace of two people in the backyard garden.

Bian Qiuyan's voice came at an inopportune moment: "Uncle Junior, Senior Ye sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that there can be no delay and that he wanted me to hand it to you personally."

Liu Xianfeng rushed to the stone bench opposite at a speed faster than the blink of an eye, and sat down like the wind. Her face was flushed and she sat sideways, twisting her fingers.

She was able to enter and exit the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion because she had met Bian Qiuyan in advance and wanted to give the young master a surprise.

"come in."

Xu Yuanchang sat up straight, wondering why Lao Li wanted to talk to him so urgently.

The forces in various continents of the Dark World have reached a new balance and are all stepping up the exploitation of mineral resources in their respective territories. Zhu Zongshan leads the coalition monks in tireless patrols, assisting the defenders of the four passage cities and repelling countless attempts at counterattacks by the Black Spirit.

For some minor incidents and frictions, a joint elders group composed of five-story monks from various continents would negotiate, investigate and resolve them, so as to keep the situation within a certain range.

Bian Qiuyan sensitively noticed that the atmosphere in the pavilion was not right. Liu Xianfeng's face was as red as a kitten that had stolen some fish. It was too obvious. He hurriedly used his magic power to deliver the envelope, handed it over, and hurried out.

She didn't forget to close the door considerately, and ran away with her hands covering her mouth and laughing.

Xu Yuanchang tore open the seal, took out the letter and scanned it. There was a sentence scribbled inside with a rough handwriting.

"Humans and demons have different paths, and cannot practice together; reborn, after the seventh level."

He was stunned for a moment. Is there such a broken rule?
He remembered that Lao Li was a Taoist partner with a female cultivator from the Wu Ya Sect thousands of years ago. Lao Li himself was a thousands-year-old monster, but he still had a passionate and life-and-death experience with a human woman. Lao Li had risked his life several times for the woman, and after his death, his bones would be buried in the same pit.

Many mountain gods and deities recorded in ancient books did not follow the principle of "humans and demons are different" when looking for partners.

For example, Xu Shengtian had no idea what kind of relationship he had with the Wu Luo god who had been summoned down to earth several times. The god married a famous phoenix girl from the demon clan. At that time, he wanted to know about the past of the Wu Luo god, and he accidentally saw it while looking through ancient books, and was quite impressed.

Liu Xianfeng took a quick glance, read the words on the note clearly, and was also stunned.

Are there still such restrictions?

She thought that she had reached a certain level of cultivation and could condense a body that was no different from a human woman, so that she could be with the young master...

Xu Yuanchang cursed: "Bullshit!"

It flew into the air, broke through the restrictions in the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion, and hovered seventy or eighty feet in the air, overlooking the city within a radius of more than fifty miles. The lights on the streets gradually rose, and people came and went.

"Ye Changmeng, I know you are hiding in the city, 300 miles west of the city. Let's meet and talk about anything."

Xu Yuanchang's shout spread throughout the city and flew towards the west of the city.

He had wanted to meet Lao Li for a long time. That guy hid himself secretly and showed up occasionally, like a rat in the gutter, often showing his presence, and he was as despicable and annoying as ever.

Everyone was shocked, but when they saw that it was the city lord who lived a reclusive life, they felt it was natural.

It is rumored that the city lord and Senior Ye are very close friends, and it is true.

Liu Xianfeng hurriedly flew out of the backyard and followed closely. She was worried that the angry young master would fight with Ye Changmeng.

Bian Qiuyan was stunned watching from below, and hurriedly called two guests assigned to the Fifth Floor Tower of the City Lord's Mansion and rushed to the west of the city. Not far out of the city, they were stopped by Xu Yuanchang who waved his hand and forbade them to follow.

Everyone watched as the City Lord and Fairy Liu disappeared into the night.

After flying about 300 miles, Xu Yuanchang landed on a small hilltop and motioned Liu Xianfeng to stay ten miles away from him. He looked around and shouted, "Ye Changmeng, don't hide. I know you're here. You shameless bastard, you're the only one allowed to set fires, but I'm not allowed to light lamps, right? Come out and let's talk..."

A shadow suddenly appeared and kicked Xu Yuanchang hard on the butt from behind.

"Boom!", blazing two-color flames appeared all over Xu Yuanchang's body, almost igniting the sneak attacking foot figure. He was involuntarily thrown forward over a hundred feet, and just as he stabilized his body, he was kicked on the butt again.

"Bang", this time it was even more brutal.

Including the phantom fire spirit, the whole person smashed into the mud and rocks below, and the flames spread over the ground for dozens of feet.

"I have tolerated you for a long time. Ha, I will let you remember the food but not the beating."

An arrogant and ethereal voice echoed in the night sky.

Xu Yuanchang climbed up from the human-shaped mud pit without any injury. He spat out the mud in his mouth, making himself dirty and embarrassed. He knew that Lao Li did it on purpose. He slapped his robe and hair, put away the flames, and shouted in the same arrogant voice: "When will you ascend to the upper realm?"

Liu Xianfeng flew over from ten miles away, covering her mouth and giggling.

The young master also has his moments of frustration. From the conversation between the two sides, she could tell that the young master and Ye Changmeng had a special relationship.

No more sound was heard in the night sky.

No matter how Xu Yuanchang provoked and scolded him, he never kicked or tripped him from behind.

"he's gone."

Liu Xianfeng, a bystander, reminded with a smile.

After being kicked twice, Xu Yuanchang realized that the day for him to meet Lao Li had not yet arrived and he could not force it. He reached out and took a soft-haired animal, and they returned home together and disappeared into the night.

It doesn’t matter whether he wants to see it or not. He is not interested in seeing the old monster who has transformed into the appearance of a young boy.

A moment later, a young man in a green robe appeared on the top of an empty mountain. With his hands behind his back, he hummed an ancient tune over and over again.

"I wish we could stay together forever and spend the passing years together."

"What can I do, we are so far apart, my tears are falling like rain."

Some pains are so deep that they can’t be forgotten even after reincarnation.

He was reincarnated as a human in this life and was no longer an alien. He needed great merit to bless himself before he could have a chance to fight against those old guys.

It’s not time to ascend to the upper realm yet.

He couldn't bear to see the boy go astray, so he wrote a letter to warn him.

I don’t want the painful lesson from more than 8,000 years ago to be repeated on Xu.

If humans and demons only hang out in the lower world and have no chance to ascend to the upper world in the future, the union of humans and demons will be just that, and they will just enjoy themselves behind closed doors. No one will meddle in their affairs, because they will eventually die and turn into dust.

Even if they can reproduce offspring, they will still be punished by the dark world and it will last forever.

Upon learning that Liu Xianfeng had returned, Xu Shengtian led Xueli, Yuanbao and Huabei back the next afternoon. The backyard, which had been cold for a long time, was now full of laughter and liveliness, with insects flying and dogs running around.

Happy times pass quickly and it’s the end of the month in the blink of an eye.

The newly promoted sixth-floor monk Xie Yunchuan, accompanied by Meng Shanhe and Wen Yining, handed over the city lord's seal to Xu Yuanchang, took over Dingzhou Bianning City, and was responsible for guarding the pass all the way to the gate to the dark world.

After a grand ceremony and banquet, Xu Yuanchang said goodbye and left. Mei Yuanjian chose to go to Wuyan Mountain to serve as the chief protector. Bian Qiuyan went with Meng Shanhe. She will assist Uncle Master Meng in handling various chores.

Xu Yuanchang, Liu Xianfeng, Xu Shengtian, Xue Li and others returned to Fucai Ridge, but the golden toad was still locked in its nest at the foot of the mountain.

The reason why Zeng Shanlang was arranged to return to the base for retreat was because of the long-term consideration of the city director.

Half a month later, Xu Yuanchang summoned Xu Shengtian, Xueli and others, and gave them detailed instructions, saying: "The Flower Festival is expected to start in three or two years. Xianfeng will go to the flower world with Jiao Teng, and must arrive in Dingzhou in advance. She will not say goodbye to you. She can't bear the sadness of separation. She hopes to meet you again in the upper world. Please take care!"

Xueli, Yuanbao and Huabei stood there, like stupid statues.

It was not until Xu Yuanchang disappeared into the horizon that they seemed to wake up from a nightmare. The old yellow dog barked at the western sky, as if crying. It was lucky that it could advance to the third level. It would be impossible to advance to the next level in the future. Knowing that it would never see him again, every day of its life would be a memory. Snow grains shrank on the ground, and strings of crystal ice beads rolled down.

The back of the flower makes a hissing sound, and the silk it spits out is like sorrow, the sadness is beyond words.

Decades ago, they knew that the big sister was going to the flower world.

When this day really comes, no one will be able to face it with a smile.

Xu Shengtian sighed silently. He firmly believed that he could ascend to the upper realm, no matter how difficult it was, because his junior sister was waiting for him in the upper realm. He didn't know how to comfort his sad friend.

After living together for many years, he could understand the feelings that Xueli, Yuanbao and Huabei had towards Aunt Liu.

At this moment, he really wanted to drink.

"Woo woo, I can't bear to leave them either... I said goodbye to them the day before yesterday and told them about it. They thought I was joking, so I just treated it as a joke and fooled them. If I stayed in the lower world, I would be even more reluctant to leave you."

Liu Xianfeng cried so hard that her eyes were wet, and a large area of ​​the young man's clothes on his shoulder was wet.

"All good things must come to an end. They have their own paths to follow. Well, if Xueli works hard to cultivate and spends hundreds of years honing his skills, coupled with a little luck, he will most likely advance to the sixth level and ascend to the upper realm. That's what Elder Zeng said."

Xu Yuanchang chose kind words to comfort him.

Lao Zeng is very optimistic about the snow particles that can stimulate the innate spiritual light. Of course, there are countless cultivators and monsters who are qualified to cultivate to the sixth level, but only a few can finally reach that step. There are too many who die halfway or are stuck in a bottleneck and cannot move forward.

Opportunity, fate, luck and diligence are all essential.

"But... Xueli is not diligent enough in her practice. She is more playful and even lazier than me."

"I'll think of a way to throw it to the demon tribe's territory. The competition there is fierce and the survival is cruel. It can't even be lazy. It has to open one eye when sleeping, otherwise it will be eaten by other demons."

“Will it be too harsh?”

"Snowgrain has no other problems except laziness. It can adapt..."

Xu Yuanchang used that lazy bug to distract the little tree spirit who was crying sadly just now.

If jade is not cut and polished, it cannot become a useful object. To deal with lazy people, you have to use ruthless methods and not just let them lie down and practice.

His nephew has extensive connections and is friends with many demon family members in Wangxianzhou, Xiyuezhou, and Tianhuangzhou. He only needs to say hello to them for minor matters and he won't have to worry about it.

The two of them arrived at the Gem City quietly while talking, without alerting their old friend.

Xu Yuanchang had the jade pass for entry and exit given by his uncle Meng Shanhe. He showed it to the monk on duty and walked out of the passage with Liu Xianfeng.

The view in front of me suddenly opened up. I adjusted myself to the bright and scorching sunshine and took a deep breath.

The scent is as fragrant as orchid and the whole body feels comfortable.

"Let's go, the sky is high and we can fly as far as we want. We don't have to limit ourselves to a hundred feet to avoid hitting our heads. Let's go to a thousand feet to see the scenery."

"Great, great, I've never tried flying that high before."

Hand in hand, they flew higher and higher, looking down at the mountains below that were like continuous roof ridges, the rivers that meandered like hemp ropes, the boundless sea in the west with waves forming a line, and small islands dotted like pearls. It was indeed another magnificent scenery.

"I want to go play in the ocean."

"let's go!"

The two swam freely between the blue sea and blue sky, fished on the rocks and reefs, occasionally landed on the backs of giant fish to play, and saw schools of silver fish flying towards the rainbow.

After more than three months of fun, we returned to Dingzhou Continent in the summer. Playing on the sea for too long would become boring.

Setting foot on the grasslands of the Great Qiang Dynasty in the north, the two bought fine horses, galloped across the vast plains, watched the sun set, and watched the birds fly in formation. At night, they used the ground as their bed and the sky as their blanket, hugged each other and looked up at the stars and the upside-down Milky Way.

In the middle of the night, they were disturbed by a pack of wolves, which scared away the untied horses.

"Hate it, disturbing our sleep."

Liu Xianfeng murmured like a little woman and snuggled into the young man's arms.

Countless grass stems grew wildly and waved like whips, hitting the wolves on the head and driving away the uninvited guests.

She was in a good mood and didn't want to kill.

After walking for more than ten days, I would occasionally go to the herdsmen's homes to ask for a bowl of milk tea, pick wild flowers to make a garland and wear it on my head to dress up as a mountain ghost.

I let go and had a lot of fun, and the sadness of parting with my friends disappeared completely.

The war in the dark world is not over yet, and monks are rarely seen on the grassland.

Before leaving the grassland, a knight in ragged clothes appeared from somewhere and followed the two of them from a distance.

"Looks like a horse bandit?"

"Ignore them and go our own way."

"Aren't we going to get rid of harm for the people?"

"Go ahead, I'll see you show off your skills."

Xu Yuanchang laughed and said that he seemed to have a kind of alienation with everything in the mortal world, as if "it's none of my business". He guessed that it was because he was about to "become a mortal", so he left the mortal world and experienced all the mortal world.

Liu Xianfeng wanted to go to the bandit's lair to see for himself, but the knight who was following him ran away alone when it got dark and never appeared again.

"He's sensible. Otherwise, we should destroy their bandit den."

Liu Xianfeng didn't want to use any magic, she guessed it was her own temperament and that of the young master that made the bandits who were following them realize something was wrong and gave up on their business. The bandits, who were wary of blood, had good eyesight.

Pass through the Daqiang Dynasty and enter the Xinwu Dynasty.

The two no longer had to sleep in the open air. Instead, they traveled along the official road through villages and towns, tasting local delicacies and experiencing the local customs and practices.

All the way to Shanyang Country, Liu Xianfeng discovered a problem and said, "Sir, we have been to many places. Have you noticed that there are more bandits and robbers? The villages have closed their doors early, and even the towns have many scammers. The violence in the world is much worse than a hundred years ago."

Xu Yuanchang nodded and said, "Perhaps it is the lack of cultivators to suppress the luck that has led to the growth of hostility in the dynasties."

He also saw the problem. Compared with the time when he was walking the ascetic path, he encountered countless bandits and swindlers.

Witchcraft and illegal activities are rampant in the countryside.

"I will send a message to Zhuang Yixie who is on duty in Gucheng, and ask him to go to the Dark Realm on my behalf and report these situations to Commander Yu. We cannot allow this problem to continue to develop, otherwise the people will suffer."

Xu Yuanchang took out the communication talisman, muttered to himself for a moment, then raised his hand and threw the yellow talisman into the air.

Liu Xianfeng asked, "Doesn't every dynasty have sect monks guarding various places and cities? Can't they see the problem?"

"They prefer to keep things to themselves, or maybe they are used to it and think it is not a problem."

"It is the people who suffer, and they cannot empathize with us."

"..."
