3. Light clouds cover the moon, drifting winds return to the snow

Black and blue meet, two people look at each other from far away.

Shen Qingxian saw Gu Jiuyuan, but at one glance the hazy shadow in his memory materialized.

On the road of delusion, the man’s skin is white, his body is long and shoulder is wide, and his dark red robe is like the vibrant flowers blooming in the middle of the night, his demonic aura was heavy.

Far away, but Shen Qingxian saw his eyes: a pair of magnificent ruby-like eyes.

He looked at him, and he fixated his gaze on him. On one hand, the clouds were light and the wind was light, on the other hand, he was determined.

Shen Qingxuan frowned lightly… the Tao immediately drew their swords!

Zeng Ziliang, Ye Zhan and others have been silent, waiting for the war!

Suddenly, a hot air rose from the soles of the feet, followed by a mysterious fragrance filled the air, which is confusing, as if it drifted out from the deepest, most beautiful dream.

It arouses the most innocent ignorance of young people, the deepest desire on the long road of life, and the deepest emotion.

Suddenly, thousands of elites of heavenly path fell at the same time, even the six great sects were staring blankly, unable to distinguish reality from illusion.

Reality… Illusion…

What are they?

A deep and charming voice sounded: “Why do you bother?”

Slow and lazy words, but they ring deep in the bottom of the hearts, rushed into the mind, seized all the spirit and reason, causing people to feel helplessly lost.

Joy, anger, worry, thought, sadness, fear, shock, the most disturbing emotions at this moment into one, fusing into a straight line, sweeping warm and hot surge in the blood…

A cold breeze broke through.

The sky then suddenly changed, the beautiful illusion collapse, the false warmth dissipated, shock filled the heart.

Ye Zhanxiu’s cultivation was the highest. He was the first to regain consciousness. The man who used to be calm and proud in the past had cold sweat on the back of his palm.

It’s an illusion!

The ecstasy of Jiuyuan Devil Emperor!

Never thought that even though there was Lianhua Lord, the devil emperor was still so arrogant!

It has long been known that Jiuyuan Devil emperor is good at controlling people’s hearts. A single cast of ecstasy can make thousands of people unable to distinguish truth and illusion. But it was hard to imagine that he dared to cast it here, at this time, on such a large scale?

What is more scary was that all but Lord Lianhua went under his spell.

All the people present are trained to be highly attentive and alert, and mostly wore magic-proof armour.

Not to mention the monks who opened the sea, they had their own ways and had never feared any illusion.

But a moment ago, everything was turned upside down.

If it hadn’t been for the Lord Lianhua, they would have been afraid of the destruction of the whole army.

There was a chill in everyone’s hearts, and no one dared to belittle the devil emperor.

Can fight with the the first-ranked of the heavenly sect for the title of first under the skies, he… He’s terrible!

When the illusion was removed, people realized that the two sides were very close.

From a distance, the Jiuyuan Devil lord is standing in front of their own Lord. He is slightly taller. His magnificent red eyes are full of jokes: “Shi Shu, long time no see.”

Looking at the seniority, Gu Jianshen really should call Shen Qingxian shi shu.

At that time, Shen Qingxian was a close disciple of Shi Fu. Gu Jianshen is Shen Qingxian’s shi xiong’s close disciple. Although they had hardly met each other and had no deep friendship with each other, they had a real relationship with each other.

Of course, both sides stand in this position and say that these are provocative.

Shen Qingxian’s face remained unchanged: “Emperor is polite, however the sides are different, seniority is not needed.”

Gu Jianshen is silent, just look down at him, from his cool hair to white forehead, and finally stop on the eyebrow print – the blood-colored lotus on the snow-like skin, adding a touch of sadness and beauty.

Gu Jiuyuan’s thin lips raised slightly and sighed softly: “Light clouds cover the moon, the wind drifts back to snow.”

Once the words fall, the heavenly way people exploded one by one!

This demon emperor, dared… dared to…

After that Gu Jianshen said something even more arrogant, he smiled deeply and asked, “Lord, have you ever been praised for your earthly appearance?”

“You dare!” Ye Zhan could not bear it. He just wanted to die with this devil.

Shen Qingxian raised his hand and stopped him. Ye Zhan was so angry that he was about to explode. Looking at the entire cultivation world, who dared to speak so wilfully to the Lord?

This demonic cultivator is absolutely abhorrent!

Compared with the anger of his disciples, Shen Qingxian had a calm look. He looked at Gu Jianshen and said softly, “Vibrant red and fragrant scent, Mt. Wu is heartbroken.”

Gu Jianshen hesitated.

Shen Qingxian stared at him: “The posture of emperor is magnificent.”

This time, the Four Guards, Eight Generals and the Sixteen Death Guard of Xin district exploded!

This Shen Lianhua actually compares their emperor to a woman who serves the monarch!

In few words, the Tao and Xin district have drawn their swords, and now they want to fight.

But after a short pause, the two people in the center looked at each other and smiled.

Yes… Smiled!

The Six Factions of Tao thought they were blind.

The Xin district think that their brains have stopped functioning.

Just as the saying goes: language does not rest till it has shocked people to death. People thought that Gu Jianshen would be angry, and the scene would be filled with millions of corpses, blood flow thousands of miles… in the end however, Gu Jianshen good naturedly said, “To have the praise of the Lord, this life will be a blessed one.”

Xin district’s left guard Jianlian’s eyes widen: no, no, no, no, your majesty, it is not like this, it is not praise ah!

Shen Qingxian smiled, “Your Majesty, please.”

Gu Jianshen replied politely: “Lord, please.”

They walked side by side, stepping on the vast sea of stars, while also stepping on the deep and bottomless road, two slender figures standing together, made a beautiful scene for thousands of years to come.

No, no, no, not a beautiful scene!

People who have seen this scene are trying to hypnotize themselves, this isn’t beautiful, this is the most scariest scene in the world!

On this day, for the first time in thousands of years, the disciples of the Tao and disciples of Xin district were like-minded.

Ye Zhan and others kept up with him, and they were very upset: it’s our fault, causing the Lord to have suffered!

The Six Factions of Tao were thinking: once the two sides meet, Gu Jianshen gave Tao a dismounting prestige, that one spell casted just now made everyone lost their will, even if the Lord did not get sucked in, but they also have some misgivings.

If the two sides go to war, if Gu Jianshen take the opportunity to manipulate the people of Tao, they fear that the Lord will not be able to take care of them, and everyone would take massive damage, so the Lord has endured, and decided to hold back the plan.

Thinking, Ye Zhan and the others became even more hateful, hate that that devil emperor is so arrogant and also hate their own incompetence, burdening the Lord!

The Xin district are also thinking about it.

Even though Gu Jianshen was the first to strike, using ecstasy to explore minds of the disciples of Tao, but what Ye Zhan and others did not notice, was that the Xin district disciples were also in a predicament.

Almost at the same moment when the ecstasy was casted, Shen Qingxian’s enormous consciousness came overwhelmingly, and instantly covered all the Xin district disciples.

The spiritual cultivation takes “idealism” as the first element, but Shen Qingxian’s God consciousness is too strong, it came crashing down on Xin district disciples and suppressed them like a landslide, worthy of admiration.

Admiration and idealism are mutually exclusive. If Shen Qingxian continues to exert pressure, these Xin district disciples will only be afraid that all of them will be able to cultivate the Tao.

Of course, Gu Jianshen saw that Shen Qingxian’s spell and also timely raised the barrier, blocking Shen Qingxian, but that moment’s enormous pressure gave the mind of Xin district’s disciples trauma.

So Xin district people also feel that their emperor has suffered great grievances! It must be for the sake of protecting their centuries of cultivation that Gu Jianshen did not do anything to the Tao.

The everyone thought a lot, but the results are good, not only did they not fight, but also calmly sat together, began to talk!

In fact, there is nothing to talk about.

The rule of Tao is that it obey the rules of the heaven and let it into flesh and blood.

The Xin district’s belief is in the mind, to follow the heart.

If they begin to talk about their beliefs, they will want to fight every minute.

There are too many differences in ideals. To be brutally honest, to say a single word is a word too much.

Shen Qingxian didn’t want to discuss with Gu Jianshen either. He looked at the Jade slip. The “First, meet Gu Jianshen” had turned pale gray, which meant that it was completed. At the same time, he realized that the sky ladder in the his finally had a small step.

Although it seems like a joke, it seems that following what is written in the Jade slip can really repair the ladder.

Seeing results, Shen Qingxian became more and more energetic.

“Second, drink with Gu Jianshen.”

Drinking? Although Shen Qingxuan hasn’t touched this for thousands of years, it is doable, which can’t be much of a trouble to the Lord Lianhua.

It’s just… How do I speak about it?

One thing Ye Zhan and the others guessed right, Shen Qingxian was really worried about them, but not of the fact that they were controlled by the illusion, but that he would frighten them into suspecting whether they are alive.

Such as their never-drink-a-drop-of-alcohol founder beging to ask for drinks…

At the time of Lianhua Lord’s distress, Emperor Jiuyuan respectfully gave him an opportunity.

Gu Jianshen said, “For the sake of this first discussion, Xin district has prepared a gift, wondering if the Lord can give it a try?”

As his voice fell, and the apostles of Xin district poured in, with graceful posture, leisurely gauze, with a flowing jade bottle of fine wine.

When the bottle stopper was opened, the full-bodied aroma of wine filled the hall in an instant.

Even if one does not know the taste of the wine, the smell of wine caused one’s heart to feel drunk.

The apostle was about to pour wine for Shen Qingxian, but Gu Jianshen took over the Jade Pot and say, “Let me.”

The apostles were shocked, but dared not disobey, so they bowed and backed down.

My Lord, the people of the Tao felt the deep ache in their hearts.

Wine… Wine… Wine!

Everyone knows that the Lord is detached from the world. He has not touched this vulgar thing for a long time. Now, for their sake, he actually……actually……

Ye Zhan clenched his fist and gritted his teeth.
