Xiao Ling naturally knew the identity of the person Qing Lin was curious about.
Back then, Yao Chen was still a passionate young man, wandering around the mainland, and made a lifelong friend, Feng Zunzhe Feng Xian. Later, the two went on an expedition to the Meteor God Icefield together to search for the legendary Bone Spirit Cold Fire.
And Han Shanshan, who was both a teacher and a friend of Yao Chen, quietly followed them because she was worried about Yao Chen.
It's just that they all overestimated their own strength and underestimated the strength of Bone Spirit Lenghuo. In front of Bone Spirit Lenghuo, who had lived for who knows how many years, the three of them together were no match for Bone Spirit Lenghuo.
At the most critical moment, Han Shanshan made a sacrifice with her soul constitution similar to that of Bone Spirit Lenghuo. In order to save Yao Chen, she sacrificed herself, and at the same time eliminated Yao Chen and Feng Xian's memories of her in the Meteor God Ice Field.
After Yao Chen and Feng Xian subdued the Bone Spirit Leng Huo, they left the Meteor God Icefield and returned to Shengdan City. They thought Han Shanshan had disappeared, but they did not realize that she was trapped in the river of time to save them. .
Since then, Yao Chen has searched the Dou Qi Continent, but has never been able to find any clues about Han Shanshan. The name Xingyun Pavilion was chosen by Yao Chen in memory of Han Shanshan. What fell was not a star, but a person, a woman he would always remember in his heart.
Until now, Yao Chen still has not been able to retrieve the lost memory, and he is not sure whether Han Shanshan has disappeared or has suffered misfortune.
"It seems that that person is really important to Master," Qinglin nodded slightly after listening to Xiao Ling's words, and said thoughtfully, "Since Xingyun Pavilion is named in memory of that person, then what? The person should be gone too.”
"If you want to protect those we cherish, you must have enough power." Xiao Ling gently stroked Qinglin's head and said with a smile.
Immediately afterwards, he opened his arms and hugged the little medical fairy and Qinglin tightly, with a hint of firmness and tenderness in his voice: "You are all the things I cherish in my life, and I will do my best. Become stronger so that I can better protect everyone I hold dear.”
"The road to practice is long and lonely. If you can know that you are with me and we will ride through the wind and rain, it will be a wonderful practice. I am not practicing in this life to become a saint, but just so that you can always be by my side and never leave you."
Qing Lin had never heard such straightforward words of love before. Her cheeks were instantly flushed with a blush, but her heart was as sweet as drinking honey.
How could she not understand Xiao Ling's thoughts? Her wish is actually very simple. She just hopes to stay with him for a long time and have a place in his heart.
The little medical fairy was stunned for a moment, then turned away, snorted softly, and said with a bit of dissatisfaction: "Humph, you big carrot, no matter how nice you say it, you can't hide your desire to open a harem. .”
"So what if you want to open a harem?" Xiao Ling made no secret of her feelings and declared with a hint of rogue, "What man can't be tempted when he meets a perfect woman like you who is beautiful, powerful, and considerate? I just made a mistake that all men make. From the day we met, you were destined to be entangled with me for the rest of your life!”
Qing Lin covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes showing her love for Xiao Ling, "Master, it's not a good thing for you to be so domineering, but Qing Lin will always be by your side."
"Eating the food in the bowl and thinking about the food in the pot! Alas, I can only give you an advantage." Although the little doctor said that he was not forgiving, he did not break away from Xiao Ling's arms, but sighed helplessly. tone, and continued to hold him tightly.
Under the bright starry sky, the three of them just snuggled together quietly, enjoying the warmth and tranquility.
……
For practitioners, time is like gurgling water, passing by quietly inadvertently. Once those practitioners with profound cultivation decide to practice in seclusion, years, decades, or even hundreds of years may pass by unknowingly.
Ever since Xiao Ling arrived at Xingyun Pavilion and successfully refined a new body for Yao Chen, he began to practice in seclusion, trying to break through to the realm of Dou Zun. In the blink of an eye, nearly a year has passed.
In this year, Xingyun Pavilion has also experienced some changes. Although it is not earth-shaking, it is enough to attract people's attention.
The news that Xiao Ling brought a Dou Zun-level expert to join Xingyun Pavilion and was promoted to an elder was not hidden for long, and soon spread in the streets and alleys of Zhongzhou.
This matter has aroused a lot of heated discussion. Everyone is speculating on how Xiao Ling, the famous eighth-level alchemist, did not accept the olive branch of Danta and instead chose to join the powerful and influential team. Far inferior to the Starfall Pavilion in Dan Pagoda.
Within a period of time, this incident became a hot topic among the people of Zhongzhou. People talked about it and speculated on the reasons.
However, as time slowly passed, Xiao Ling never appeared in public again after joining Xingyun Pavilion. This once hot topic was gradually forgotten by people and became a thing of the past.
And Xingyun Pavilion is quietly accumulating strength in this calmness.
With the joining of an eighth-grade alchemist and a Dou Zun expert, Xingyun Pavilion has truly become the leader in Sifang Pavilion, and its power even has a faint tendency to compete with Sangu.
Since Xiao Ling became a member of Xingyun Pavilion, many powerful people from Zhongzhou have come to visit, hoping to hire Xiao Ling to help refine the elixir.
And Xingyun Pavilion's attitude towards visitors is always open to visitors. As long as the reward is suitable and the relationship with Xingyun Pavilion is not hostile, they can trade with Xingyun Pavilion, and those who seek elixirs can always bring them with them. Satisfied with the required elixir, he left.
Such interactions allowed Xingyun Pavilion to establish solid friendships with many powerful people in Zhongzhou. There were even three casual cultivators who, under the temptation of the elixir, became guest elders of Xingyun Pavilion.
Although during this process, the alchemy seekers did not have the opportunity to see Xiao Ling, who was known as the "number one genius in Zhongzhou", all matters were handled by Feng Xian.
However, they were very satisfied with the effect of the elixir they received, so they did not ask too many questions, nor did they raise any doubts. In their hearts, the quality and effectiveness of the elixir are what they care about most.
After all, it is surprising enough that Xingyun Pavilion has an eighth-level alchemist like Xiao Ling. Could it be that there is another eighth-level alchemist hidden in Xingyun Pavilion?
Some people even joked that the legendary Medicine Master Yao Chen has returned to Xingyun Pavilion? But everyone knows that this is just a joke after dinner.
Of course, there are always some gossips who like to compare Xiao Ling with Yaochen back then.
Both of them are peerless monsters in the world of medicine refining, and they both belong to Xingyun Pavilion. This makes people wonder, maybe if Xiao Ling continues to grow, he can really become a legendary figure like Master Yao Chen.
Although this kind of speculation is a bit of a joke, it also makes people full of expectations for Xiao Ling's future.
……
Zhongzhou, the realm of beasts.
Under a blue sky that was so clear that it could almost reflect human figures, the sunlight fell softly, covering the earth with a warm golden coat. Everything seemed so peaceful and harmonious.
However, this tranquility was suddenly broken by a subtle fluctuation. In a corner of the sky, an almost imperceptible ripple in space quietly appeared, like a ripple blown by a gentle breeze on a calm lake.
Immediately afterwards, the ripples expanded rapidly, forming a strange light gate. At this moment, a petite figure jumped out from the twisted light door, as if she had crossed the boundaries of time and space and appeared in this world.
The girl was wearing an exquisite purple dress, the hem of which fluttered gently as she jumped. However, she looks young in appearance, only about fourteen or fifteen years old, but her purple gem-like eyes reveal wisdom and cunning beyond her years, as well as a touch of innocence that cannot be hidden.
Her tender skin is white and delicate, like the first snow in winter, and her small and delicate feet are exposed without any cover, adding a bit of playfulness and vitality to her.
As soon as the figure of the girl in purple skirt jumped out of the space light door, she looked around quickly like a frightened deer. After confirming that no one was following her, her tense nerves finally relaxed and she breathed a long sigh of relief.
Immediately afterwards, there was another wave of space fluctuations around the girl in the purple skirt, like water ripples, and her figure disappeared without a trace in an instant. The next moment, she landed lightly on a soft lawn, like a light feather, without stirring up a trace of dust. After confirming again that no one was following her around, the girl in the purple skirt breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately patted her flat chest. A proud smile appeared on her face, and she said to herself,
"Hey, I finally escaped this time. It seems that those old guys haven't discovered me yet. Sure enough, as long as I break through the eighth level, those old guys can't do anything to me. I am really talented. Haha.”
Just as the girl in the purple skirt was immersed in her own little pride, suddenly, the colorful snake wrapped around her wrist suddenly moved. It twisted its body and jumped into the air flexibly.
Immediately afterwards, a dazzling red light pierced the air, and the figure of the colorful snake changed rapidly in the light. In an instant, it transformed into a beautiful woman wearing a red dress.
This woman has a look that will captivate a country. She is tall and curvy, wearing a purple brocade robe, looking noble and cool. Her lavender eyes are charming and seductive, with three thousand black hair hanging down to her waist. Her face is delicate and beautiful, and her red lips are like fire. Her every move and gesture exudes the aura of a queen, which can be said to be unparalleled elegance.
As soon as the beautiful woman appeared, she chuckled and flicked the girl in purple on the forehead, and asked: "Zi Yan, have we successfully left Donglong Island? Where are we now?"
The girl in the purple skirt suddenly woke up after being hit like this. She stretched out her little hand to rub her forehead and said with a smile: "Hey, sister Medusa, I scouted around, and those old guys probably haven't followed up. We, we are free now”
"As for where we are now, I'm not sure, but it's probably in the beast realm. Let's just grab any monster and ask for directions, and then go find Xiao Ling. By the way, that big guy Hei Qing said where Xiao Ling is. What... is coming? ”
"Oh, it's Xingyun Pavilion. Okay, there happens to be a seventh-level star-studded silver-scaled snake over there. Let's go and catch it. We'll first ask where this place is, and then let it take us to Dan. Domain." Medusa sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness in her tone.
As soon as he finished speaking, Medusa's figure was like a red lightning, and instantly appeared in front of a giant snake covered with silver-white scales.
Immediately afterwards, a majestic fighting spirit and bloodline coercion emitted from her body, surging out like ocean waves.
This aura of the peak Douzong, coupled with the bloodline pressure of the colorful sky-swallowing python, was simply an overwhelming shock to the seventh-order star silver-scaled snake in front of him.
As soon as the breath spread, the starry silver-scaled snake was immediately frightened and did not dare to move. Its eyes were full of fear, and its huge body trembled involuntarily, shivering, as if it was under the pressure of Medusa. The courage to escape was lost.
Immediately, a female voice came from the mouth of Xingyao Silver Scale Snake, with a hint of trembling: "My lord, what are your orders?"
Medusa stood in the void, playing with her nails carelessly with one hand, squinting at the shining silver-scaled snake, and said with a trace of laziness in her tone: "Where is this place? Tell me what you know about the situation. Tell me everything..."
Hearing Medusa's inquiry, the Star Silver Scale Snake could only answer her questions honestly and truthfully, not daring to hide anything.
After getting the required information, Medusa did not hesitate and directly commandeered the Starry Silver Scale Snake to use it as a means of transportation for the two of them to the Dan Realm.
At Medusa's command, the Starry Silver Scale Snake spread out its pair of broad wings behind it, waved it hard, and then galloped towards the distant skyline.
Sitting on the broad back of the Xingyao Silver Scale Snake, Zi Yan looked at the ground farther and farther away, her excitement was beyond words, and she shouted loudly,
"Xiao Ling, I'm coming to see you right now!..."
……
Zhongzhou, Burning Flame Valley.
In the meeting hall, the atmosphere was solemn and solemn.
In the vast hall, several old men in red robes were sitting around the hall. These were the elders of the Burning Flame Valley.
At the top of the hall, Tang Zhen, the owner of Fenyan Valley, was sitting upright. His face still maintains the usual majesty, but if you look closely, it is not difficult to find a trace of worry hidden in those deep eyes.
"Valley Master, the invitation letter sent by our Burning Flame Valley has been responded to. Several sixth-grade alchemy masters have accepted the invitation. They will arrive one after another soon." At this time, a white-haired elder stood up and said .
Tang Zhen was sitting in the main seat. When he heard the news, his expression softened significantly. He then asked with some urgency: "It can't be done without a seventh-grade alchemist. So what's going on with Master Huan? Has it been negotiated?"
Another elder stood up and replied: "Valley Master, Master Huan does seem to be interested, but he mentioned that he has recently gained a new understanding of alchemy, so he hasn't given us a clear answer yet."
After Tang Zhen heard this, his brows that had just relaxed slightly furrowed again. He said in a deep voice, "Then you can ask next time how much time it will take. Huo'er's condition won't last long."
"As you command, Valley Master." After hearing the order, the elder bowed slightly and then sat back in his seat.
As the elder sat down, the meeting hall was once again enveloped in silence.
Just when everyone thought that today's discussion might not make much progress, a crisp knock on the door suddenly broke the tranquility. Immediately afterwards, a girl's voice floated into the ears of Tang Zhen and the elders through the heavy door,
"Father, it's me."
Hearing the voice of his daughter, Tang Zhen showed a look of confusion on his face, and he waved quickly. A soft fighting spirit shot out from his palm, gently pushing open the door of the closed meeting hall.
The door slowly opened, revealing Tang Huo'er wearing a red dress. With a heroic appearance and firm steps, she walked into the meeting hall unhurriedly.
"Huo'er, has something happened? Or are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Do you need me to check you out as a father?" Tang Zhen asked with concern when he saw his daughter.
Tang Huoer first bowed politely to the elders around him and saluted, then turned to his father, with a hint of excitement in his voice: "Father, someone from Xingyun Pavilion has sent news. They said they can help us refine fire." Bodan.”
Tang Zhen frowned, a little confused: "Xingyun Pavilion? We didn't send them an invitation letter."
"It was the disciples of Xingyun Pavilion who heard the news themselves and offered to help." Tang Huo'er explained, "According to the disciples they sent, Master Xiao Ling will come to Burning Flame Valley in person later. Take it upon yourself to help us refine the elixir we need.”
Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Tang Zhen's eyes, but then he heard Tang Huo'er add: "But they put forward a condition, which is to ask us in Burning Flame Valley to teach the Three Mysterious Transformations of Sky Fire to Xiao Ling."< br>
"Valley Master, this must not be done!" Wu Chen, the elder of Burning Flame Valley, suddenly stood up and said with righteous indignation, "The Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire are the treasure of our Burning Flame Valley and must not be spread easily!"
When Wu Chen spoke out, several other elders also nodded in agreement.
Facing such a scene, Tang Zhen frowned, and Tang Huoer felt a sense of sadness in his heart. After all, this was related to her life and safety, but these elders seemed to value the inheritance of a secret technique more.
Immediately, Tang Huoer cast a searching gaze on Tang Zhen.
Tang Zhen responded with a firm and reassuring look, and his voice sounded in the hall, calm and powerful: "I have made up my mind on this matter. If the alchemists we invited can successfully refine the elixir, there is no need to bother. Master Xiao Ling.”
"But if they can't complete it, then even if we have to come up with the Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire, we have to ask Master Xiao Ling to help. My decision will not change, this matter is settled..." (End of Chapter)
