The fairy is fierce

Nine figures were suspended under the scorching sun, and the woman's stern rebuke resounded throughout heaven and earth:

"...Don't you have any conscience at all? Did my master ever mistreat you in the slightest? No one in Sword Imperial City spoke up, but you jumped out to sing the opposite. Are you afraid that my master will come back and steal your position?... "

The voice was filled with anger, but there was also excitement and prayer in it.

Lord Peach Blossom understood very well that under the current situation, if Shangguan Yutang relented, her master might not be safe; but if Shangguan Yutang did not relent, no one could save her master when Mr. Wang came that day.

It's a pity that these words have no meaning anymore.

After Shangguan Yutang spoke, the other Lord Sword Emperors present all had answers in their minds as to whether they should give Mei Jinshui the prodigal son a chance to turn around.

Shangguan Yutang is right. The monks who can reach the top of the mountain are far more firm in their Taoism than others.

The evil path may one day figure out how to abandon darkness and turn to the light, and the righteous path may also figure out how to take a crooked path, but it is absolutely impossible to repeatedly jump between good and evil, especially for a peak cultivator like Mei Jinshui.

Mei Jinshui was able to go to the alien tribe of Youying, and he must have had his own way to stick to it. Even if he found out that he was wrong after thousands of years, with the mentality of the monks on the mountain, he would either live without shame in the world, or hide in Youying. Foreigners will make up for their mistakes in the future, so how can there be any reason to run back to their hometown in despair and repent?

As a result, the expressions of everyone present turned to preparedness.

Shangguan Yutang did not get angry when Lord Peach Blossom was scolding him, and finally warned:

"This matter has nothing to do with you. You leave now. For the sake of your master-disciple relationship, today's impulsive actions will be forgotten. As a lord, you must distinguish the boundaries between public and private. If you insist on going your own way and take action against us, you Understand the consequences.”

Master Peach Blossom naturally knew that what she was doing was wrong, but the safety of her mentor was at stake, and her choice of loyalty or filial piety was a mistake. Everyone was selfless, and if she killed her relatives out of justice, could it be that all the efforts she had made in the past had been fed to the dogs?

Lord Peach Blossom obviously would not listen to the advice. She wanted to use both soft and hard tactics to make everyone around her change their minds. However, before she could speak, the woman behind her spoke first.

The woman in a snow-colored white dress still maintains an easy-going attitude in the face of the hostile crowd:

"Yutang's character hasn't changed at all. He never hesitates about right and wrong. But Yingying, it's time for you to change your temper."

"Master..."

"Don't worry about me. I came here today not to seek death, so why would I stand here waiting for you to discuss how to deal with me."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone present changed slightly.

They surrounded Mei Jinshui here and hesitated to take action. In addition to respecting their former friends, they also couldn't figure out Mei Jinshui's intentions.

The three elders and four sword kings present represent more than half of the combat power of the top level of Yuyaozhou. They can kill anyone they meet. No matter how strong Mei Jinshui is, there is no way he can defeat seven of them one by one. ඏ ♦ ♦♦

Dao Xing, who can live close to the sea, will not come back to die after surviving enough. If this appearance was planned in advance, the problem will be huge.

An expert is always an expert wherever he goes. Mei Jinshui has a high status in the Youying Foreign Clan. When necessary, he can call all the top bosses of the Youying Foreign Clan.

If Mei Jinshui's trip was to lead a foreign tribe to raid Yuyao Continent, and she was here to lure the tiger away from the mountain, then it is very likely that Yuyao Continent would have been mostly occupied at this moment.

Thinking of this, the three elders and the four sword emperors secretly sensed their hometowns with their spiritual thoughts. Fortunately, everything in Jade Yaozhou was as usual, nothing unusual.

Mei Jinshui didn't mean to show off, and continued:

"I came here this time, firstly, to completely destroy Wuyezi and fulfill my old friend's last wish; secondly, to reminisce with you, we are different, but our friendship is still there. We haven't seen each other for so long, I really miss you; thirdly..."

When Mei Jinshui said this, he suddenly lowered his head and looked at his feet, which no one was paying attention to.

The Lord Sword Emperor present concentrated his spiritual thoughts on the position where Mei Jinshui was looking, but he saw four strangers standing on the hillside in the distance. What Mei Jinshui was looking at was one of them, a handsome swordsman with an extremely young face. .

"This little friend's poem is good, 'I am wearing this body in the ice and snow forest, not like peaches and plums mixed with fragrant dust. Suddenly, the fragrance spreads all night, spreading like spring in the universe.' This poem is the best plum blossom poem I have ever heard, compared to Chao Li's limerick is much better. In the past, I had to show up and talk about it in person, but this time, there is no exception. "

"..."

The whole place was silent.

This silence was not a shock, maybe a little, but it was not the main reason.

The main reason was that when the immortal heroes were at war, Mei Jinshui suddenly recited a good poem, and the major sword emperors didn't know how to respond; in this kind of situation, they couldn't say "Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful".

Zuo Lingquan was watching solemnly from a distance when he was suddenly stared at by the gods in the sky and was slightly stunned. After hearing the woman reciting a poem in public, his scalp went numb with embarrassment!

What the hell? Why did you mention me?

Zuo Lingquan wanted to open his mouth to explain, but in this situation, nothing seemed appropriate.

Fortunately, the woman in white clothes in the sky did not stay long on Zuo Lingquan. After praising him, she turned to the old swordsman behind Zuo Lingquan:

"You have something to ask me?"

Hearing this, everyone turned their gazes, only to see 'Lu Shisan', who was once famous in Central Continent, standing there blankly, like an old man who had lost his soul.

Although Lao Lu is not the Sword King of Central Continent, he is ranked thirteenth, which is actually just one step behind him. To be able to show such a devastated look shows that his heart is in turmoil and has reached the point where he cannot suppress it.

Before the desperate fight in Huoyan Valley, Lao Lu heard Lin Zifeng say that there was an expert from the Youying alien tribe who might be able to help him. ♦♦  ♦♦

Lao Lu was dubious about this, or maybe he was just lucky. Seeing today's scene, if he guessed correctly, the master Lin Zifeng was talking about was the woman in front of him who could make things difficult for the Lord Sword Emperor.

Lao Lu once traveled across thousands of mountains and rivers, frantically asking for help from experts and celebrities, trying to find a way to redeem his past, but the answers he got were all disappointing. This may be the closest he got to the answer.

But practicing together, asking and answering, is a kind of kindness.

And if he gets an answer from the evil way that he doesn't have in the right way, what's the price?

Lao Lu was alone and seemed to have nothing to lose. But after a long silence, he calmed down and smiled hoarsely while holding his sword:

"I, Lu Jianchen, have been practicing swordsmanship all my life. I have missed thousands of times, and I also have evil thoughts in my heart. But fortunately, I have been on the right path my whole life, and I have not ended up like Lin Zifeng, who was betrayed by everyone. So, I have nothing to ask."

This sentence shows the line between good and evil.

"Taking it in the right way" is the right way. Even if Lu Jianchen misses thousands of times and feels that he is not worthy of being a human being and living in this world, as long as he still holds the sword in his hand, he would rather suffer the consequences for the rest of his life. I won’t beg for mercy from the evil ways and ask for the regret medicine!

Several giants of the immortal family in the sky who had been begged by Lu Jianchen in the past roughly understood what Lu Jianchen wanted to ask, and were quite surprised when they heard the words.

Seeing Lao Lu's answer, Mei Jinshui didn't say much. She looked back at the people who were watching eagerly and said goodbye:

"Goodbye. This is the farewell. I don't know when I will see you again. I hope everything goes well for you all. However, we have different paths and we will meet again sooner or later. Don't take any chances. As Yutang said, what I want to do, No one can control me, and when the time comes that you can’t stop me, I won’t hold any hand against you, just like Yutang wants to kill me; under the great road, there are no personal feelings.”

After saying the last sentence, Mei Jinshui's body gradually became unreal.

When several Lord Sword Emperors saw Mei Jinshui trying to escape, they naturally tried to stop her. However, following the fluctuations of her soul, they discovered that Mei Jinshui's true form was actually the ancestral tree in Peach Blossom Pond.

Lord Peach Blossom, who had been anxious all this time, noticed this scene and his eyes turned into confusion.

"That peach tree was planted by me to take care of Yingying as she grows up, and it is connected to my destiny. Otherwise, Shenjun Meng Zhang would not have placed it on that peach tree when he gave her the opportunity. Don't cut down the tree either. It’s so difficult, I have deleted the contact and will not come back again.”

Before the sea water disappeared, he thought about it, glanced at Zuo Lingquan again, and sighed:

"Those who follow the destiny will be miserable, and those who resist the destiny will die. In fact, no matter which path you take, it is not easy, but if no one has planted trees before, where will the descendants enjoy the shade..."

Before he could finish his words, his figure had completely disappeared.

At the same moment, something seemed to have disappeared in the ancestral tree far away in Peach Blossom Pond, losing a bit of its former aura...——

The sudden peak confrontation ended quietly when the fragrance of plum blossoms dissipated between heaven and earth.

The eight Lord Sword Emperors did not relax their vigilance and searched all possible places, but the source pointed to the ancestral tree in Peach Blossom Pond that had taken root for thousands of years.

The ancestral tree had been planted before the Battle of Stealing Pills. It was the foundation of Lord Peach Blossom. After Mei Jinshui left, the Three Elders were reluctant to destroy this sacred tree that could contact Divine Monarch Meng Zhang, and only erased it. The writing on the stone tablet, but I didn't expect that the ancestral tree and Mei Jinshui were still connected.

Looking back, this is actually reasonable. Mei Jinshui only has one disciple, Lord Peach Blossom. In troubled times, it is human nature to keep his disciple under his nose and take care of him.

Haijin's water skills are very high, and his research on the Five Elements magic is as good as anyone in the world. He secretly leaves a mark on the ancestral tree, which is difficult for outsiders to detect.

Although Mei Jinshui said that the contact had been erased, Shangguan Yutang and the other two elders checked together and found no clues. However, for the sake of safety, the three of them still joined forces to create a small world in Peach Blossom Pond to isolate the ancestral tree. in.

In this way, even if there is still contact with Haijinshui, he has to break open the small world first, which basically eliminates the possibility of Taohuatan being monitored. Of course, Lord Peach Blossom has nothing to monitor, and he drinks heavily all day long and doesn't care.

Although Mei Jinshui has come and gone in a hurry, the aftermath has not ended.

On the Sand Sea side, the four Sword Emperors did not enter the Nine Sect Realm. After the incident, the three of them turned back. Sword Rider Huang He stayed behind to visit Lao Lu, with whom they had some friendship.

Most of the sword cultivators in Zhongzhou are casual cultivators, and they are not as assertive as the eight masters when they go out. This is especially true for Huang He, who is very popular in Zhongzhou and got acquainted with Lao Lu while drinking together.

Huang He looked like a scholar from the way he dressed to the way he talked and behaved. He also had some knowledge of music, chess, calligraphy and painting. When he heard the plum blossom poem recited by Mei Jinshui, it was difficult to comment on it at the time, but it was still fresh in his memory. After it was over, he wanted to meet that person. A prodigy from the Nine Sects of Swordsmanship whom I have heard about for a long time.

Unfortunately, Zuo Lingquan was blocked by the angry Lord Peach Blossom!

When a woman got angry, she was being unreasonable. Sword Immortal Huang He was a sensible person, but he didn't dare to start a fight with a good old man. He turned around and found Lao Lu, only to see Lao Lu alone, sitting under the old tree on the top of the mountain in a daze.

"Xiao Lu, why are you so lost? Do you want Uncle Huang to enlighten you?"

Huang He became famous earlier than Lao Lu. According to their age, Lao Lu took advantage of him when he claimed to be his grandfather.

But Huang He's face didn't look like he was thirty, so when he said this in front of the gray-haired Lao Lu, he felt a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, Lao Lu was not in the mood to respond to this joke at this moment.

The mountain breeze blew the linen robe, and Lao Lu put his long sword across his knees and looked at the distant sky, his eyes full of loneliness.

But for some reason, the twilight aura about Old Lu that had his feet half in the ground had dissipated so much that Old Lu's appearance had not changed, but he seemed to be younger.

Huang He is ranked seventh in the Sword Emperor City, and his moral skills and eyesight are not to mention. When he saw this scene, his eyes were surprised:

"Have you found an opportunity to break through?"

Lao Lu did not look back, nor did he use his skills to seize that rare opportunity, and said hoarsely:

"You can't live when you want to live, and you can't die when you want to die. I thought that after another ten or twenty years, I would be free in this life, but I never thought that at this time, God would put a thousand years of life in front of me again; It is said that the heart of the sword will be broken, the heart will be in trouble, and it will be difficult to survive in this life. God's thoughts are really hard to figure out. "

Huang He didn't know the specific details of Lao Lu's past. He only knew that Lao Lu was trapped by love. He sat down next to him:

"The so-called knot in the heart means that there is something in the heart that cannot be let go. No matter what you wanted to ask just now, it must be very important to you. In the end, you did not ask the Youying alien tribe, which shows that you have kept the way in your heart, the heart of the way is stable, and you have broken through. The opportunity came naturally.”

Lao Lu shook his head: "Then I'm nothing."

"Um?"

Huang He was puzzled.

Lao Lu did not explain, because Huang He didn't understand what he was giving up by keeping his Taoist heart.

Hongyan has been waiting at the beach for decades, and her parents have been waiting at home for a lifetime.

There was a chance of redemption just now. Although it was slim, it was indeed there. All he needed to do was ask.

But he gave up this opportunity because of the so-called 'right path'.

Lao Lu knew that this was right. As a swordsman, he should do this, but in this way, he would be even more ashamed of his parents.

He could not live up to the right path and his former dearest relatives, but he could not have both, so he followed his heart and chose the former.

This does indeed provide an opportunity to break through the situation, but how can one have the face to accept this opportunity in exchange for redeeming the previous opportunity?

Lao Lu would not deviate from the right path, but he also did not want to let down the past, so he finally chose to spend the rest of his life to atone for his sins.

Lao Lu rubbed the sword on his knees with his fingers, stood up, and dragged his lifeless body towards Feisha City.

Tread

Huang He sat under the tree, watching the lonely old figure gradually go away, and sighed:

"If you give up, the knot in your heart has not been resolved. I can't help you with this matter. You can only look at yourself."

"We'll see you later. If I don't make it until we meet again, don't forget to come every Qingming festival to burn a piece of paper. You don't have to kowtow. Just bring a jar of wine."

"...?"

Huang He opened his mouth and wanted to curse back, but for the sake of Lao Lu, half of his feet were buried in the ground, so he finally decided to let it go...——
