On Xixuan Mountain, at the top of Mogan Peak, there is a scene of joy and peace everywhere. This is not just as simple as putting on lanterns and colorful decorations, green luanans are whirling in the blue sky, red cranes are in groups at lakes and streams, white tigers are sleeping on the green grass, and so on.

Fang is the atmosphere of the immortal family, which is different from the ordinary people.

However, although the Taoist priests and guests coming and going in the Taishang Daode Palace were well-dressed, they all had worried looks on their faces, which was incompatible with the festive atmosphere of the surrounding celebrations.

There is a palace complex in the northeast corner of Taishang Daode Palace that is different from others. This palace is called Jiuyou Palace. It has gray walls and black tiles. The courtyard is full of dead trees and grass. Under the corners and eaves, there are cobwebs and dust everywhere. I don’t know how long it has been.

It has not been cleaned. There are a few black crows resting on the dead trees in the courtyard, cawing incessantly, making this Jiuyou Hall ghostly and very different from other halls.

The main door of Jiuyou Hall was closed, and four Daode Sect disciples were guarding in front of it. Master Ziyun was walking around in front of the hall, his face was anxious, and he seemed to have lost his calm demeanor. He walked through hundreds of circles.

Suddenly he stood still, and in a flash he was standing at the top of the jade steps, in front of the palace door.

The two black iron doors creaked and opened slowly, and a bone-chilling wind immediately surged out of the hall. Even though the four disciples were not weak, they felt like their limbs were all broken when they were blown by this cold wind.

It was like being pierced by dozens of sharp needles, and his face turned pale for a moment. Master Ziyun seemed to be facing the cold wind, just looking at the palace.

After the palace door opened, Master Gu Shouzhen walked out of the palace. After him, Taiwei and Yuxuan walked out simultaneously, one on the left and one on the right. The three Masters looked exhausted, and the light in their eyes was no longer there.

"How?" Master Ziyun asked.

Gu Shouzhen smiled and said: "Tao Ancestor's protection finally brought Ruochen's three souls and seven souls back to the earth from the underworld."

Master Ziyun said happily: "This is the best! You masters don't know, the sky in the clouds has been causing trouble in the past few days, and only Master Ziyang with such good self-cultivation can tolerate him! I think he is probably

I want to force Master Yuxu to risk a trip to the underworld to see if he can find Ruochen's soul. If Master Yuxu has been injured in any way, is it not in line with his wishes? Where is Ruochen now and when will he be able to return?

Mountain?"

Master Shouzhen smiled bitterly and said: "We have exhausted our true energy and are unable to use the three-hole Feixuan Formation to search for Ruochen's location. However, there is no doubt that Ruochen's soul has returned to his body. He knows the world well and will know when he wakes up.

The hour has passed, and we will definitely make the journey back to the mountain at dawn and night, Master Ziyun, there is no need to worry. After three days when our true energy is fully recovered, we can check Ruochen's position again."

Master Ziyun nodded and said: "Very good! The three masters will go to rest first. I will immediately inform Master Yuxu to leave the customs, and then inform all the guests in Yunzhongju about the matter. This will also save Yunzhong Tianhai from making noise every day!"

After a while, the argument broke out again in Fengxixuan where guests were waiting.

"What great news, it turns out I still don't know when that brat will return to the mountain! Humph, his soul has returned to his body, but I don't know when he will return. I will also say such prevarication! If you claim to be a Taoist sect.

Qing'er, who is number one in the world and looks down on us, why didn't you tell her earlier?"

Old Man Tianhai's face glowed red, and the more he talked, the angrier he became. Finally, he couldn't help but slap the case. It didn't matter that he slapped him, because the final game of chess in front of him was already shot away.

Old Man Tianhai's words were indeed a bit harsh. Master Ziyun's face was immediately filled with black energy, and black cloud patterns appeared in the corners of his eyes, and he seemed to be planning to take action. Old Man Tianhai looked at him sideways, but he was not afraid.

At this time, Master Ziyang, who was opposite Wen Ping, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Our Daode Sect just has more disciples. It is far from being as rigorous as Yunzhongju in choosing disciples. How can we dare to claim to be the best in the world? Qing'er has a very good character regardless of his cultivation level.

It is a rare encounter in a hundred years. Ruochen can find such a beautiful couple, which is really a blessing that has been cultivated for hundreds of years. This matter was unexpected and missed the right time. Our sect has tried its best to make up for it, and Taoist brother Tianhai also sees it. Brother Taoist

Don't be angry, it's rare that you and I have met each other many times in the past few years, our fate is very close, come and come, play chess, play chess!"

Old Man Tianhai stared and said, "This game of chess is already messed up, how can we still play it?"

Ziyang said with a smile: "This round of officials has messed up their tattoos before they are finished, so it doesn't count. Let's start over."

Old Man Tianhai snorted, then sat down in front of Wen Ping, divided black and white, and fought with Master Ziyang at the same place. Master Ziyun laughed and couldn't help but said: "I have heard that Tianhai's masters in the clouds are unparalleled. Today, one

Seeing as expected, the reputation is well-deserved, and the skills are beyond Wen Ping! Hehe, fifteen consecutive victories, a good win!"

It turned out that Tianhai and Ziyang had been playing for seven days and seven nights. He was stronger than Ziyang in chess and had won more than ten games in a row. He was overjoyed and could not help but feel underestimating the enemy. If he was not careful, he would fall behind. The game just now was already in the game.

In the end, Old Man Tianhai still couldn't figure it out, so the argument with Master Ziyun was just an excuse. The real intention was to disturb the chessboard so that the winning streak could continue. It was precisely because Ziyun saw this that he couldn't bear it.

Stay away from making sarcastic remarks.

Tianhai was all focused on Yiqi, but he pretended not to have heard what Master Ziyun said.

Ji Ruochen's whereabouts had been revealed, and the news that he was about to return to the mountain spread instantly. The engagement ceremony, which had been postponed many times and seemed to be far away, was rescheduled for the eighth day of October. As a result, the Taishang Daode Palace had a solemn and gloomy atmosphere.

Sweep it all away. But everything is always happy for some people and sad for others, and not everyone in the Taishang's moral palace is happy.

With a snap, a white stone fell, cutting off the black dragon's chance of survival.

"Your level has plummeted three thousand feet in this round. What do you think? Do you want to start a new round?" Gu Qing put the white piece in his hand into the jade box.

Chu Han smiled bitterly and shook his head, and began to put away the chess pieces on the wooden board. His chess skills were almost the same as those of Lu Qing, but he always lost nine out of ten in Yi chess. In fact, he lost because of his mentality. He was determined and determined.

It is rare in the world, but Gu Qing has a world in his mind, and sees everything in the world as floating clouds, which is a completely different realm from him. Chu Han is worried at this moment, and is completely defeated.

He pondered for a moment and finally said: "Qing'er, this is the last time I will call you this. These days I have thought about it repeatedly, but one thing has always stuck in my mind and I can't figure it out. Now I dare to ask, if you don't want to

Answer, that’s all.”

Gu Qing said: "But it doesn't hurt to talk."

There was a tremor in Chu Han's voice, and he said: "Qing'er, you and Ji Ruochen have only met a few times before, how could... how could you have such a deep love? We are based on the great road, how can there be such a thing as love at first sight?

?”

Gu Qingsu's hand trembled slightly in a very rare way, and he looked at Chu Han for a moment, then continued to collect the chess pieces, while saying calmly: "Senior Brother Chu, if I don't tell you about this, I'm afraid your Taoist mind will be unstable from now on, and it will affect you."

Achievements in this life. Anyway, Ruochen and I have a predestined relationship. The meeting that day on Xixuan Mountain, beside the Taiqing Pond, was actually the fate of our ninety-ninth life. When I say this, Senior Brother Chu understands.

?”

Chu Han was silent for a long time, then Fang smiled bitterly and said: "Everything in the world has a cause and effect. If everything happened according to cause and effect, wouldn't it mean that we would live like a puppet on strings?"

Gu Qing said calmly: "Senior brother, what you said is wrong. Acting against the fate is a kind of law, and acting according to the fate is also a kind of law. How to choose depends only on the heart. Ruochen and I are already at the Taiqing Pond

When we meet, at this moment, even if there is no previous relationship to worry about, we will always be a Taoist couple in this life and never leave."

Chu Han's face became increasingly pale, and he reluctantly said: "I understand..." Suddenly a mouthful of blood spurted out, splattering all over the tattoo.

Without saying a word, he waved his sleeves, and a strong wind blew out from his sleeves, turning the wooden table, clouds, and blood all clean. Then he bowed to Gu Qing and left slowly.

Gu Qing was the protagonist of this ceremony, and she was treated very differently. A whole set of elegant villas in Taishang's Moral Palace stayed with her temporarily. When Chu Han left the hospital, he met Shi Ji head-on. Shi Ji pulled her away

He stopped him and said: "Senior Brother Chu, I heard that Ji Bingxian has left seclusion at noon, and her Taoism has advanced to a new level. Tonight, you can raid the formation for me, and we can attack her Bingxin Residence!"

Chu Han shook his head and just said: "I have some problems with my true energy. I need to calm down for a while. Junior sister, after all, this is Taishang's Moral Palace, not our Yunzhongju. Don't make too much trouble. Be careful, Master.

Punishment. Then I won’t be able to protect you."

Just watching Chu Han's figure disappear, Shi Ji paused and said to himself: "There is something wrong with the true essence. I think it's true that I feel lovesickness in my heart. Alas, this big piece of wood,

It seems that I have no hope. Apart from him, there is no one I like in the sect. What should I do?... Well, it seems that I should choose a Taoist companion in the Taoist Sect like Sister Qing did.

alright."

She turned around and entered the other courtyard, and saw Gu Qing standing by the window, quietly looking at the vast sky. Shi Ji stood behind Gu Qing and chuckled: "I heard that Ji Bingxian came out of seclusion at noon and entered the next level of Taoism.

!Sister Qing, come with me to attack Bingxinju tomorrow night and see how powerful Ji Bingxian has become."

Gu Qing snorted and said calmly: "She has only reached the Supreme Saint Realm after traveling to the first level. There is nothing to attack."

Shi Ji stuck out his tongue and said: "Of course there is nothing easy to attack for you, but it is different for me! Alas, it doesn't matter if you don't want to go, I will go and attack on my own."

Gu Qing turned around and said with a smile: "You also know the temper of the head brother. You took the initiative to provoke this time and won everything. If you lose, you will probably have to face the wall for at least a year. You have to think

Let’s make a decision later.”

Shi Ji's face suddenly became ugly. He paused and said angrily: "Even if you face the wall for three years, that will be in the future. What should I be afraid of?"

Gu Qing sighed: "You...there are many guests coming to the ceremony this time. Among them, Li Taibai is not only the most talented poet, but also extraordinary in his conduct. If you can get him and you to have a few poems and calligraphy treasures, I think it will be the best."

If you lose the battle, the head brother will not blame you."

Shi Ji's eyes lit up, he ran around Gu Qing, and said with a smile: "You are the best! By the way, it's rare to see you looking so worried. Then Ji Ruochen has already found it, isn't there anything else to worry about?

of?"

Gu Qing said: "There are many guests here to congratulate you, and there are a few special people among them. Well, I just want to meet them one by one."

Shi Ji asked curiously: "Then just go and see him. What's so difficult about it?"

Gu Qing frowned slightly and said, "I don't know why, but I always feel that there is one person among the guests this time that I will never see."

This time Shi Ji was really at a loss.

When he stepped on the stone steps leading to Taishang Daode Palace again, looking at the dark crowd in front of him, Ji Ruochen couldn't help but be a little speechless. He never expected that there would be such a big battle. Among the people waiting in the square, there were still disciples of Daode Sect.

A few, mostly guests in different colors to congratulate guests. Ji Ruochen clearly remembered that Master Ziyang said that only three or five close Taoist friends would be invited to the engagement ceremony this time, but at this moment, there were nearly a hundred guests in the square alone.

What's going on? And among the guests, there are clearly a few people who shouldn't be there.

Two young Taoist priests from the Taoist Sect who were leading the way came forward and said, "Uncle Ruochen, all of you have been waiting for a long time at the Taishang Taoist Sect..." Suddenly, a tall and burly figure appeared between them.

The figure, as strong as an elephant and as powerful as a dragon, leaned his shoulders to the left and right, and the two Taoist Sect disciples fell out to the left and right.

He took his position and saluted Ji Ruochen with cupped fists. The face of the dragon-headed elephant, which was as black as the bottom of a pot, glowed red with excitement. The sound was comparable to the giant bell of Taishang Daodezong's evening class, and everyone in the mountain heard: "Ji Shaoxian is very happy."

! Even the gods in heaven can only have such a wonderful companion. How can such a grand event be without our two brothers? This time... Eh?!"

This person is none other than Dragon Elephant Heavenly Lord. The Seven Sacred Mountains belong to the evil sect, and although they cannot be said to have a life-and-death relationship with Tao Te Sect, they were originally friends who never got in touch with each other until death. Long Xiang Tian Jun can stand upright and proudly as the Supreme Taoism.

It is not a big or small thing to be in front of the palace without being dismembered by the Taoist Sect. At this moment, you can still stand here and talk freely?

Ji Ruochen was still surprised. When the Dragon Elephant Heavenly Lord mentioned the four words "our brothers", he suddenly felt that the people around him were very deserted, which was very different from the past. So he looked around and saw that the White Tiger Heavenly Lord was nowhere to be seen. He was shocked.

Thinking of congratulations on such a great thing, I should move forward bravely and never fall behind others. The White Tiger Heavenly Lord was clearly beside me just now, but why did he disappear at this moment? Could it be that some old god from the Taoist Sect has plotted against me?

The Dragon Elephant Heavenly Lord widened his eyes, searched around, and finally found the White Tiger Heavenly Lord in the crowd. The White Tiger Heavenly Lord was hiding among the guests, winking at the Dragon Elephant Heavenly Lord desperately, and pointing behind Ji Ruochen.
