Predecessors all over the world

Three days later.

Yin Miaomiao, together with Yan Baiyu and Song Zhiqiu, arranged a hidden formation on the Sixiangmen ruins. Its function was to interfere with the teleportation technique and gain insight into the lives that appeared within it.

——They can't wait here endlessly. The best way is to seal it with a formation and send disciples to guard it all year round.

After doing all this, she contacted Xiang Tianya again.

What he recounted was very simple: Ever since they met Mei Ji on a narrow road that day in Suzaku City, the two spent several days with each other. The moment the Qiming Pearl appeared, Mei Ji gave a sweet smile and left.

She was unable to take away Tun Wuliang, and Xiang Tianya used the Hidden Dragon Mirror fragment to restrain that small part and left it in place.

Therefore, Yin Miaomiao asked Song Zhiqiu to make a trip and use the power of Xianchun to seal the Tun Wuli fragment to prevent it from staying in Suzaku City and harming innocent people.

Song Zhiqiu agreed and expressed his willingness to take Tun Wuliang away for research. He also said that if the fragments and the main body's sensing method could be found, they might be able to find Ling Xihai.

Yin Miaomiao didn't have much hope for this, so she agreed to it.

At this point, the Soul-Sealing Fish fell into the hands of Guiyuan Sect, the Soul-devouring Flame was found by Wanshui Pavilion soon after, the Heart-Breaking Flower was brought back to the sect by Ren Wuwei, and the Crazy Blood Chalcedony and Fang Wuji merged into one, and were suppressed in Qingjing

Under the tower, the main body of Tun Wuli was taken away by Ling Xihai, while the fragments were left in Xianchun Villa. They no longer have the ability to cause harm to one party.

Among the seven people in the Dai domain, Wan Liyao was injured by Mei Ji when he first arrived and later died in front of Qu Zhiyang. The corpse demon Jiang Buhui died in the hands of Yin Miaomiao, Bai Yishen and the King of Hell. Jiang Liting was killed by Ren Wuwei, and Shui Ji

Killed by Lan Suxin, Ling Xihai fell into the abyss, not knowing whether he would live or die.

The only hidden danger left was Mei Ji. But in the vast sea of ​​people, and she was good at a strange possession technique, it was obvious that no trace of her could be found in a short period of time.

You can only be a thief for a thousand days, but you can't guard against a thief for a thousand days. Yin Miaomiao is not prepared to invest too much energy in Meiji, and just asks the Taoist sect to pay more attention to such a person.

After she finished all these arrangements, she remembered something important: "How is the situation in the five cities?"

Kong Li, who came over temporarily to watch, brought the first-hand news from Zhongzhou: "The news of the death of the old city lord Qin has been spread, but Qin City is strong and cannot be conquered overnight. The problem lies in the civil strife and the disappearance of Yulong

, Qin Ziyu is dead, others will inevitably covet the position of city lord."

"Yulong was killed by me." Yin Miaomiao said concisely.

"No wonder." Kong Li nodded and continued, "You may not guess what happened next. City Lord Chu killed Wu Zhiwen and forced the whole city of Wu to surrender."

Yin Miaomiao was surprised: "So cruel, they were allies just a few days ago."

"It's easy to start with allies. After all, they are familiar with each other." Kong Li mocked, "Qicheng is not much better. The Lord of Yue City is dead, and he is also a piece of fat. But Ruan Qingchou is quite capable. You know what she did.

What?"

Yin Miaomiao thought for a while: "Yuecheng is the weakest and has lost its backbone. No matter what we do, it will be difficult to end well."

"That's right, but after seeing it through, not everyone can afford to take the position of the Lord of a City." Kong Li opened the folding fan and sighed, "I underestimated Ruan Qingchou, but she actually really

He is so cruel that he is willing to throw away the name of 'Yuecheng'."

"How to say?" She became interested.

Kong Li said: "She said that the five cities in Zhongzhou came from the five mortal kingdoms. The secular atmosphere was too heavy and it was not like a place of monasticism. Moreover, the country of origin was used to divide the belongings, and the worldly connections were constant, adding to the frustrations. Therefore, she decided to abandon the city.

In order to rebuild a true cultivation sect named Piaomiao Mountain, anyone, whether they are Yuecheng monks or not, can join the sect."

A trace of surprise flashed across Yin Miaomiao's eyes. As Kong Li said, it was not easy for Ruan Qingchou to make such a decision. Because with the name of Yue City, monks born in Yue Kingdom naturally have a sense of belonging and do not worry about the origin of their disciples.

, loyalty is also relatively high.

But if it becomes an ordinary sect, the source of new disciples cannot be guaranteed, and the monks in the five cities have deep grudges. There will be discord when joining a sect, and if it is not handled well, there will be big chaos.

"This is a new trend, but it's not easy to do." Yin Miaomiao sighed.

Kong Li chuckled: "She is smarter than you think. She must have thought about this for a day or two. Half of the people in Yue City followed her and joined the new sect, which is on the famous Misty Peak in Yue City. It turns out that there

It is a private garden that was built decades ago. At that time, everyone said it was luxurious, but now it seems that she has already prepared a way out."

"She is the concubine of the Queen of Yue. She comes from a poor family and is not a nobleman. Without the full support of the Lord of Yue City, she would not be able to take the position of the Young Lord of the City." Yin Miaomiao recalled Ruan Qingchou's past and commented, "Yue City is weak, sooner or later it will

If there is a day of destruction, it would be a wise move for her to prepare her backup plan early."

A lean camel was bigger than a horse. Ruan Qingchou took away some of the monks from Yue City, while also leaving behind Xian Cheng and others. The remaining cake was not small, and it would take time to digest it.

In this way, those who coveted Yue City would not kill them all and force her newly established sect, but would turn a blind eye and carve up Yue City with her.

"More than that." Kong Li unleashed a big move, "She has been walking around Central Continent for so many years and has made many good connections and has close friendships with many casual cultivators. Therefore, as soon as the sect was established this time, many people came to join.

The jade slaves all said they were going to support the sworn sister and be a guest - I really don’t know when they became sworn sworn friends!"

Yin Miaomiao was surprised.

The rogue cultivators in Central Continent are a considerable force. Some of them, like Xiang Tianya, really cannot stand the constraints, and some are forced to disperse because they cannot find a backer. If the latter can be united, Miao Miaoshan can become a medium-sized sect in one fell swoop.

Kong Li shook his fan and predicted: "There will be a lot of excitement in Zhongzhou."

One word becomes a prophecy.

The great drama in Central Continent really kicked off after the death of the three city lords of Qin, Wu, and Yue. The first one to make the thunder was naturally the usually low-key Ruan Qingchou, so I won’t go into details here, but the next one is

It's unexpected and reasonable.

Qi Panxi killed Chu Tang.

Even though the two families have been in alliance for a long time, when City Lord Qi and City Lord Chu left the Sixiangmen site alive, their alliance was destined to end and hostility began.

The two families are indeed in-laws, and they have a tacit understanding in handling things. Chu Tunwu and Qi Tunyue have not encountered any hard bones. However, when it comes to the next step, Qi Panxi takes action a step faster than Chu Tang.

All in all, she took action probably on the day when the four city lords besieged City Lord Qin.

The process was quite simple. She said that Xun Chutang had something to do with him, so she tricked him into a trap and, together with other helpers, killed him directly.

The first thing the Lord of Chu City did after he came back was to annex Wucheng, but he didn't notice it. When he came back to his senses, Chu Tang's body had long been turned into ashes.

He reacted quickly and immediately found Qi Cheng and officially fell out with him.

But as the only two Nascent Souls left, they cherished life unanimously and were only willing to talk and never thought of taking action themselves. This gave Qin Cheng a chance to breathe.

Qincheng, as the strongest among the five major cities, has always been a dark cloud hanging over the other cities. This time they only dared to attack Qincheng after uniting the four families, and their fear is evident from this.

Therefore, when there were other better annexation targets, they all chose to reluctantly give up Qin City. It must be said that although the old city lord Qin died, he left a way for others in the city to survive.

However, no one could have predicted the subsequent development.

There are no people in Qin City who can hold their own, but there are many who are ambitious. In just a few months, many conspiracies and conspiracies have been staged, and even the ordinary Qin State wants to get involved - the King of Qin has wanted to enter the world of cultivation for a long time!

Of course the result was rejected by the monks.

The farce was staged one after another, which made the most powerful guards of the Qin family in Qin City very unhappy. They thought, we are loyal to the old city lord himself, not to the identity of Qin City Lord. Since the old city lord is dead, why should we continue to grovel?

So they discussed it secretly, and simply worked out their own futures, divided several large fairy cities under Qin City, and became the lords of one city. But at the same time, they knew very well that the power of one city was limited after all, and it could not withstand the expansion.

Chucheng and Qicheng.

Then they made a blood alliance and made an oath of inner demons together: Although each of them governs his own city, he will always watch and help each other. If one city is in trouble, other fairy cities must send troops to support them, and they must not stand idly by.

The old city lord Qin originally had nine guards. Qin Jiu died at the hands of city lord Wu, and another died in civil strife. There were still seven people left, so their fairy city alliance was called the Seven Star Alliance.

After that, in order to appease the monks in Wucheng and Yuecheng, Chu City was renamed Chuwu Immortal City, and Qi City was renamed Qiyue Immortal City. The five cities in Zhongzhou that lasted for nearly a thousand years came to an end.

A new history has begun.

Zhongzhou, on the outskirts of Qicheng, the princess's tomb.

After Chu Chan was buried, Qi Panxi came to visit her daughter for the first time. She didn't bring any fruit or wine, but only brought a bag of seeds, which she scattered in front of the tomb in the wind.

After a while, the flower seeds took root and sprouted, and a large field of pure white lilies bloomed.

The wind blew through her hair, Qi Panxi watched quietly, and after a while, she smiled slightly: "If Chan'er knew that you came to see her, she would be very happy."

"People are dead, how can they know." Xiang Tianya approached, looked at the exquisite patterns and carvings on the tomb, and shook his head secretly, "You are doing this just to make yourself feel better."

Qi Panxi curled her lips: "You are really merciless."

"It's just the truth." Xiang Tianya disagreed, "You love her a little more than Chu Tang, but only a little."

Qi Panxi was silent for a moment and nodded: "You are right. When Chan'er was first born, I just felt relieved. This child who represents the alliance of the two cities was finally born. I finally got through the hell of giving birth.

There is no need to worry that this child will absorb my spiritual power while practicing."

Xiang Tianya could not experience a woman's childbirth, so he could not understand the sadness in her words and could only listen quietly.

"She is a task and even a burden for me. I am actually very happy to get rid of her." Qi Panxi didn't know if she was telling him or listening to it herself, "I went into seclusion before she was one month old. After she came out, she had already

She is more than ten years old and she is not close to me. To be honest, I don’t care. I don’t love Chu Tang, so it doesn’t matter whether she is good or bad.”

Xiang Tianya sighed: "She shouldn't have been born in your family."

Qi Panxi's eyes looked a little helpless: "Yes, she is not like me."

Chan'er is neither as ruthless and ruthless as Chu Tang, nor as meticulous and forbearing as her. Anyone who can be like either of them, relying on Wang Ji's identity and resources, can make a breakthrough in the world.

"Forget it, what's past is past, and you have avenged her." Xiang Tianya had nothing to give to the little princess, so he took out a pot of wine and sprinkled it on the grave. "Chan'er, remember, don't do anything in the next life.

Born into the imperial family."

Qi Panxi listened and silently added: In the next life, you must not end up with parents like me and Chu Tang.

It is undeniable that she felt sad about her daughter's death, but after killing Chu Tang, this sadness quickly faded away and was replaced by a sense of relief that could not be ignored.

The Taoist couple is dead and the relationship is over.

The sweet girl is buried, no longer bound.

She clearly realized that she was more of a monk than a mother, so after worshiping today, she would not think about her daughter at all in the future.

"You don't have to come again in the future." Qi Panxi said, "The tomb is empty, and there isn't much I can do for her. At least I can't let her live in peace after she dies."

He raised his eyebrows towards Tianya, seeming to realize: "Is this the flower?"

Qi Panxi smiled but said nothing, and just said: "I'm leaving, do you want to go back and sit with me?"

"Let's stop here." Xiang Tianya casually hung the wine gourd on the tombstone, "The fate is over."

"That's fine." They nodded together and said, "See you soon."

He waved his hand towards Tianya and dispersed like the wind.

The sky is high and the clouds are light.

Qi Panxi breathed out softly, turned around and left without looking back again. Behind her, pure white lilies were blooming all over the mountains and fields, and their fragrance drifted far away in the wind.

The old life has been bid farewell, but I hope to live up to the future.

On this day, Yin Miaomiao finally finished handling the trivial matters in Central Continent and prepared to return to East Continent.

Before leaving, she said goodbye to Yan Baiyu and talked about the future cooperation between the two sects. With Mozhou's cooperation and this helping hand, everything went very smoothly.

If there are no accidents, Beidou Hall, Huangyue Valley and Chongxiao Sect will carry out exchanges and cooperation in various aspects in the future.

Finally, Yan Baiyu said: "Since you and I will be as close as one family from now on, I have a heartless request, and I hope you won't be stingy in agreeing to it."

Yin Miaomiao was in a good mood and said with a smile: "Senior, it's okay to say that you have helped me a lot this time. I will definitely not shirk the responsibility if it is within my power."

"That's good." Yan Baiyu coughed lightly and said calmly, "I want to lend Ye Zhou to Beidou Hall for a while. I'm going to send an alchemy team. It's really... outrageous. I want him to be a guest and teach the disciples.

They."

Yin Miaomiao did not expect this, and was startled for a moment before saying: "He is a disciple of the Chongxiao Sect. This matter must be done by his own will. I cannot force others to make things difficult."

Yan Baiyu immediately said: "Don't worry, I've already asked him, and he said it's no problem."

Have you asked him? No problem? This person has disappeared recently. Was he a guest at Beidou Hall? Yin Miaomiao remained silent for a while.

"Why, you can't bear it? Just pretend I didn't say anything." Yan Baiyu started to play with retreat.

"Senior is joking. Since he is willing, he can do anything." Yin Miaomiao looked indifferent.

Yan Baiyu also knew that this was done unkindly, but as the head of a sect, his face was nothing! So he pretended not to feel her dissatisfaction, and smiled and finalized: "Okay, okay, then it's settled. Don't worry, our Beidou Hall

I must treat him like a distinguished guest and entertain him well."

"Sorry to trouble you, Hall Master." Yin Miaomiao nodded politely, "If there's nothing wrong, just leave."

Yan Baiyu smiled and said: "Have a nice trip."

Yin Miaomiao nodded, and the moment she turned around, the light danced and flew into the distance.

End of this volume

The author has something to say: The story of the Five Cities, from the beginning of the Fengyunhui to the present, has finally come to an end. The Five Cities have since become history, just like the Four Elephant Gates. When new sects are built, new stories will begin.

Xiang Tianya, Qi Panxi, Chu Chan, Chu Tang, the grudges between parents and children have been settled, and the fate of lovers and Taoists has also ended. The stories of these supporting characters also have their own endings.

I have to say that the most interesting thing about writing cultivation articles is that there are times of ups and downs, ebb and flow, the wheel of history rolls forward, old friends fall into dust, and those who survive have witnessed everything and will continue to move forward.
