"Innkeeper, I am none other than Marquis Xibo..." Ji Chang said with a red face, "I was imprisoned in Youli for seven years. I was pardoned by the Holy Grace and returned home. Fortunately, my son Lei Zhenzi and his brothers saved me.

I have passed five levels, so my bag is empty and I have no money to pay you."

"It's convenient for you. I have the authority to keep you in mind for a few days. When I arrive in Xiqi, I will send officials to deliver you. I will never let you down."

When the shopkeeper heard that it was Xi Bohou, he hurriedly knelt down and bowed down.

Just now he was talking about money, but now he is just saying: "Your Majesty, Thousand Years Old! In my humble eyes, I am guilty of failing to pick up the driver! I hope that Thousand Years Old will forgive me!!"

He also said: "Invite the king to come in again, wait for the common people to bring in the pots of pulp, and personally send the king back to his country."

After hearing this, Xibohou had a thought in his mind and asked: "Who is your surname? How long have you lived here?"

The owner of the shop immediately said: "The commoner's surname is Shen and his name is Jie. He has lived here for five generations."

Xibohou was overjoyed and asked, "Do you have a horse? Lend me one to ride with me. I will thank you generously when you return home."

Shen Jie smiled bitterly and said: "The common people only live in a small household, and there are no horses. However... If the king does not give up, the common people have a grinding donkey in their home to pack the saddles and bridles. The king will borrow it for the time being, and I will go there personally."

Follow me and wait."

As soon as these words came out, Ji Chang was very happy.

Now that we have reached this point, why should we be picky?

Without horses, donkeys are not helpless!

Besides, there are people accompanying you, which is already good.

After a while, several people set off.

…

at this time.

The boundary of Sanshanguan.

Kong Xuan, the commander-in-chief who had been missing for more than several months, returned to this land again.

Why say goodbye?

Because Mr. Kong is not an ordinary person.

His origins are mysterious and his whereabouts are uncertain. Even his close friends only know that their commander-in-chief was already serving as commander-in-chief here when he defeated the late emperor.

Although Master Kong would disappear every day.

But in the decades since Sanshanguan has been in charge, Sanshanguan has never suffered a loss—even the evil and ghost troubles that plagued other areas have never happened.

So even though everyone knew that the Commander-in-Chief might not be a human being, they readily accepted it.

What? Why do you think you doubt it?

I would like to ask, is it possible that the person whose appearance has never changed for decades is an ordinary person?

What's more... Anyone who has met this gentleman knows that there is something strange about this gentleman...

So why accept it?

This is even simpler.

It's like ordinary people don't care who is sitting on the throne as long as they can live their lives.

For the people of Sanshanguan, as long as the Commander-in-Chief can protect them from living and working in peace and contentment, and prevent the evil spirits from causing trouble, no matter whether they are human or not?

As long as it can bring peace and joy to everyone, no matter where you come from, everyone is extremely welcome.

Therefore, when Kong Xuan returned to Shanhaiguan this time, the people were still so enthusiastic that they almost melted.

But Mr. Kong was not used to it.

That's right, even if he has experienced it countless times over the past few decades, it is still difficult for Xuan Xuan to accept such a scene.

——This may be related to Mr. Kong’s childhood experience.

An unhappy childhood takes a lifetime to heal.

Mr. Kong's experience may not be like this, but it cannot be said to be happiness...

Um……

I don't know who the biological father is.

In order to atone for her sins and achieve Nirvana, my mother ran away to some nook and cranny.

He and his brother were left behind.

Then...one day, my brother also disappeared.

From that day on, he practiced very hard.

Because like my brother, I came out of an egg, but the difference is that I am a beautiful peacock, but my brother is an ugly golden eagle. - By the way, why can't my brother be more like me?

If there are any similarities with his brother, Kong Xuan believes that apart from the fact that they are both mothers' children, the only thing is that as birds, they need to practice hard to transform.

But this transformation journey was not easy at all for Kong Xuan.

Because the starting point of his bloodline was too high, he stayed in the formation left by his mother for who knows how many years before he cultivated the Daluo Dao Fruit and emerged. - He also didn’t know how his younger brother, who was just a Golden Immortal at the time, got out.

.

Then, he met a young Taoist priest.

That Taoist was the strongest person he had ever seen in his life, bar none.

Although it looks very ordinary, it gives people a strange feeling, like heaven and earth, and it seems to be the origin of Tao.

If you look carefully, you can see all living things, infinite worlds, infinite time and space, and endless cause and effect from his body, but you can only see his face clearly.

In this way, when Kong Xuan was still ignorant, the Taoist taught him how to practice Taoism.

Kong Xuan walked step by step under his guidance.

Until he successfully surpassed Da Luo and became the Hunyuan Golden Immortal.

He originally thought that this kind of life would continue forever, but one day not long after, three vast and extremely powerful auras appeared one after another, suppressing the world.

That day!

The Taoist suddenly announced to heaven and earth that he had established a great teaching called: Jie!

It means that all sentient beings intercept a glimmer of life from heaven and earth!

That day!

Flowers are falling from the sky, golden lotuses are emerging from the ground, and purple energy is flowing across the sky!

That day!

The body of the Taoist became extremely majestic!

It’s like the incarnation of the supreme!

But that was the day...

The Taoist said to him: Our fate has ended.

From then on, Kong Xuan became a person again.

He wanted to find his mother, but he didn't know where she was.

I want to find my younger brother, but my younger brother has both yin and yang energy, and I don’t know where to start.

In addition, the birds in the sky fought hard with the muscular guys on the ground, and he was a little scared, so he returned to the place where he was born.

Not long after, he discovered that his beautiful feathers were a little unusual, and then he realized the Five Elements and a magical power from his feathers: five-color divine light.

Within the Five Elements, there is nothing that cannot be brushed and nothing that cannot be destroyed.

Just at this time, someone came from the sky. A bird holding a bell invited him to join the heavenly court of Shilaozi. When he refused, he wanted to use the bell to hit people.

I was frightened away by his five-color divine light and never came back again.

Kong Xuan also ushered in a brief moment of peace.

until……

Suddenly one day.

The pillars of heaven and earth were destroyed, and the sky fell and the earth collapsed.

The whole world was in danger, and he saw the ending of the saint saving the world and the lich's decline. At that moment... he understood how small and insignificant he, the Hunyuan Golden Immortal, was.

So he chose to remain in seclusion.

Later, the human race became the protagonist of the world, and the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors came into being. His Taoism finally reached a bottleneck, and he decided to go out for a walk.

As a result, as soon as I went out, I met a woman named Jian Di, who gave birth to a child named Qi.

As soon as he saw this child, he felt that he was destined, and felt that his opportunity to go further lay in this child.

So I showed up to meet this child.

The mysterious bird of destiny descended and gave birth to Shang.
