The Fairy: From the Traveling Merchant

Chapter 561 Enter
Back to Zhao Chen, the friend he took Ming Xueling to meet was naturally Ming Hongyue, whom he had just met the night before.

The princess originally wanted to leave Xuancheng at dawn and reunite with her men, but the sudden "charm" power trapped her here.

After Ming Hongyue realized that there was a force affecting her, she immediately went to look for Zhao Chen. However, who would have thought that the pollution in her soul became "excited" at this moment, and for some reason she fell asleep and did not wake up until a quarter of an hour ago.

As soon as she woke up, she contacted Zhao Chen through the "contract".

Ming Hongyue's temporary residence is located in the eastern district of Xuancheng. It is an embroidery building with its own gate and courtyard. This is not her property, but the property of Feng Wuxian, another "flower fairy" in the "Bai Hua Pu" besides "Lei Ji".

In a sense, the two "flower fairies" in the "Hundred Flowers Catalogue" are also "treasures".

Since there were no servants in the embroidery building and Ming Hongyue was in a special condition at the moment, Zhao Chen did not go through the door, but jumped directly to the second floor and entered the room through the window.

Seeing him come in, the princess, who was lying on the bed in only her middle dress, curled her eyes sweetly and said in a weak voice: "Master Chen, you are finally here..."

Before she finished her words, she saw Ming Xueling following behind Zhao Chen. She couldn't help but pause before continuing, "I just saw something in my dream, maybe it can help you."

Zhao Chen saw that although she looked very weak, her cheeks were rosy and her aura was much stronger than last night. She looked like she was too weak to be nourished...

He did not rush to ask Hongyue what she had seen. Instead, after apologizing, he walked up to her, grabbed the wrist of the girl with beautiful eyes that was exposed outside the quilt, and input his true energy to sense it carefully.

After confirming that the pollution in her soul was still "sealed" and had not "spread", Zhao Chen said thoughtfully: "It seems that you encountered good things in your dream."

After all, only one night had passed, and the princess's Huang Tian magic power had improved so much, the effect was comparable to that of him and Zheng Qingyan practicing dual cultivation with the secret method.

Ming Hongyue glanced at Ming Xueling, who was standing obediently by the window without saying a word. Seeing that Zhao Chen did not intend for her to avoid him, she pursed her lips and said:
"I dreamed that I turned into a big bird, flying in a picture of Xuancheng that seemed to be drawn in a Western oil painting, competing with the shadow of a big fish for the 'food' that escaped from the city.

"I don't know what that 'food' is, but it's obviously very helpful to both the big fish and me. After I woke up, my soul power surged, and my vital energy was sucked into my body uncontrollably, causing my inner world to be almost destroyed by this power..."

When she said this, a hint of fear flashed across her face. It was obvious that something dangerous had happened when she woke up just now.

Big Bird... I remember that when "Xingcha" examined Hongyue, he clearly pointed out that the "pollution" in her soul came from "Shaohao".

Whether in the previous life or in this Xuantian world, the ancient emperor "Shaohao" is related to the "Xuanniao"...

It is said that when Shaohao was born, there were five phoenixes in the sky, each with a different color. They were created according to the colors of the five directions: red, yellow, green, white, and dark. They all flew into Shaohao's courtyard.

Therefore, he is also called Fengniaoshi... This is also the totem of his tribe.

Therefore, it was the arrangement made by the "Happy Bodhisattva" in Xuancheng that activated the power in Ming Hongyue's soul, allowing her to transform into a black bird in her dream and snatch the "food" that the other party had accumulated for the big fish?
Add to that the inexplicable "information" from the White Pavilion Master of the Joyful Treasure Pavilion... I always feel like someone is secretly sabotaging the plans of the "Joyful Bodhisattva"...

Well, this is not surprising. After the cultivators in this world gain supernatural powers, well, at least high-grade supernatural powers, they will encounter disasters no matter what they want to do that is beneficial to their own cultivation.

The more external plundering there is, the more disadvantageous it is for Xuantian, and the greater the disaster will be.

And if a person like "Joyful Bodhisattva" drags the people of a city into danger, even if not too many people are injured, there will be no shortage of "human disasters".

So, Li Fulan would come back from Taixi so soon, Ming Hongyue's subordinates would be attacked and killed by Taixi wizards, and Ming Hongyue himself would come to Xuancheng to find me at this critical moment, maybe all of them were...

No, it is unrealistic to say that everything can be arranged completely. The most likely thing is to manipulate fate and take advantage of the situation.

This also shows one thing, the source of the pollution in Ming Hongyue's soul may not be a secret in the eyes of the truly top group of people... just like my relationship with Xingcha cannot be hidden from those who are interested, and I was deliberately disguised as a "candidate".

The water in this world is really deep!

As for who can be considered the truly top-notch ones, Zhao Chen actually has no idea in his heart... Maybe ordinary "Shengxuan" cannot reach that level. At least it takes the peak True Lords like the Qingyuan Temple Priest and Moyun Patriarch, as well as the Dao Lords to be able to do so?

With all kinds of thoughts running through his mind, Zhao Chen opened his "Dongxu Eye" to carefully observe Ming Hongyue again, and asked with concern: "After you woke up from the dream, besides the sudden increase in your cultivation, did you feel any other discomfort?"

Ming Hongyue's beautiful eyes twinkled, and she replied in a good mood, "No... I know you're worried that the power will take the opportunity to 'contaminate' me, but in fact it was very honest, which shows that your piano therapy last night was very effective."

Zhao Chen nodded, knowing that what she said was true. He was about to ask her for more details about the dream, but at this moment, the wedding invitation that Ming Xueling was carrying suddenly jumped up and flew into the air.

Then, the piece of letter paper expanded and deformed at an extremely fast speed, and finally turned into a festive sedan chair carried by eight people.

The curtain of the sedan chair rolled up, and a red wind formed, sweeping Zhao Chen and Ming Xueling up and throwing them into the sedan chair.

As for Ming Hongyue, as a member of the royal family, she was obviously not among the invited guests, just like the county magistrate who was protected by Chen Shang, the "Five Animal Old Man".

When Zhao Chen was surrounded by the red wind, he knew that he could not resist it with his current strength, or he could not resist it successfully without paying a huge price... because he sensed some familiar power in it, which was the "fruit position" suppression that only "Dongxuan" true talents possessed.

He had felt this kind of power too many times in the past "historical fog", especially in Bingquan Town.

“However, the ‘fruit position’ of this sedan chair is real, but why is the magic power used to construct it so mottled?
"Logically speaking, a being that can achieve 'Dongxuan' must have at least the foundation of a fourth-grade magical power. It is impossible for the magical power to be of this quality..."

Zhao Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, and devoted half of his energy to entering the "Star Chariot". With the help of the "Contract" communication, he comforted Ming Hongyue, who was lying on the bed and looking at Zhao Chen helplessly as they disappeared.

At the same time, he also passed the news that he was taken away by the "palanquin" to several of his subordinates in Wuyou Valley, and asked them to pass it on to Qin Sheng.

Just when he finished doing these things, the "Fate Pond" on the corridor on one side of the Xingcha Hall suddenly flew up, absorbed a wisp of energy that appeared out of thin air, and turned it into a black "carp".

"This is..." Zhao Chen was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted. He learned from the records in the "Jade Book" that someone was using the "fate" type of magical power to attack him.

In reality, he also received the "radio waves" from "Lei Ji" Fang Pei Niang, and learned about the conversation between Zhen Fan and Lao Yi, as well as how she was attacked.

"The All-Star Society is indeed looking for something in the ruins... But why did they insist on sending Zhen Fan? Is there anything special about him?

“Or maybe it’s just a cover?

"Zhen Fan wants revenge... on me or Qing Yan? No matter what, I will take over!"

Zhao Chen smiled, and before the "palanquin" completely entered the "Mu family", he took out the "Hundred Flowers Book" and used the cause and effect relationship in it to forcibly take Fang Peiniang back.

This is not the original ability of "Hundred Flowers", but a new function that this magical instrument has acquired after it came into contact with "Star Raft" and the ownership changed. However, to use this function, you need to pay "Star Coins".

……

Northeast of Xuancheng, on a dirt road near a stream.

Zheng Qingyan, who was originally sitting cross-legged in meditation, suddenly opened his eyes, then stood up and looked towards Xuancheng City.

Because just above the urban area of ​​Xuancheng, a layer of sky was faintly descending, replacing the original real sky.

"The 'mental island' where the ruins are located is indeed getting closer and closer to reality...

"The person behind the scenes... well, according to Erlang's guess, it is most likely the 'Pity Bodhisattva' who was suppressed by the Meng family... The location she chose is really good. After all, Xuancheng is one of the real coordinates closest to the 'Heart Realm'."

After mumbling to himself for a few words, Zheng Qingyan withdrew his gaze from the abnormal sky, shook his head and said:
"It seems that there are indeed many forces behind the scenes that are tacitly approving 'Lian Du Bodhisattva' to do this. Otherwise, with such a situation, the 'Dong Xuan' masters from the Six Gates and the Taoist Office should have come long ago."

She calculated with her fingers, and the second-grade magical power "Nine Lines of Celestial Phenomenon" started to operate on its own.

After a moment, Zheng Qingyan sighed and said:

"So that's how it is...After the curtain opened, the secrets began to become clear."

At this moment, a voice came from afar: "What curtain?"

Zheng Qingyan was not surprised, after all, she had already detected someone's arrival through her spiritual sense.

Soon, as a auspicious cloud fell from the sky, two women appeared in front of Zheng Qingyan.

One of them had a pretty face and graceful demeanor, and the other had delicate features and a slender figure. They were Yan Hongxia and Li Xiuling who were still in Wuyou Cave at noon.

Yan Hongxia's aura at this moment was much stronger than when she first arrived at Wuyou Valley, and it was obvious that her cultivation had improved a lot.

As for Li Xiuling, after getting off the Xiangyun, she retched several times and was obviously a little "airsick".

Zheng Qingyan was not surprised at their arrival. After nodding her head as a greeting, she ignored Yan Hongxia and only looked at Li Xiuling and asked, "Did you bring the things?"

Li Xiuling had recovered a little at this time. She nodded slightly, then reached out and pulled out a "hairpin" from her bunted hair. The "hairpin" grew in the wind and turned into a long stick with gold and red colors and dragon patterns carved on the surface.

It is the "magic weapon" Panlong Stick.

Obviously, the thing that Zheng Qingyan and others used to "break the impasse" was this magic weapon.

Since that relic is related to Emperor Taizu of Song, his queen, and his general Chai Xun, then the "Panlong Stick" used by Emperor Taizu of Song is likely to cause some changes...

"What should we do now?" Yan Hongxia, who was left aside at this time, couldn't help but ask.

Zheng Qingyan glanced at her and knew that she must have gained some benefits in the Baiyu Sect ruins in the cave. She seemed a little impetuous because of her sudden increase in strength, so she simply replied with one word:

"Wait!"

"Wait? What are you waiting for?" Yan Hongxia asked anxiously, "Xiao Chen needs our help."

"Of course, we will wait until he really needs us..." Zheng Qingyan said calmly, "And as his backup, we shouldn't be exposed too early."

……

The sedan chair was carried by something unknown, amid the sound of "music and drums" coming from nowhere, and passed through many bizarre scenes until it arrived outside a huge mansion.

When the sedan stopped, before Zhao Chen and Ming Xueling had time to get off, it suddenly disappeared and turned into an invitation card and fell into Ming Xueling's arms.

"I thought she was going to be taken directly to the bridal chamber in a sedan chair carried by eight people, but she was dropped off outside the house?"

While Zhao Chen was joking to ease the atmosphere, he also looked around and found that the two of them were placed next to a corner door and there was no one else around.

Moreover, this mansion is really "big". The courtyard wall on one side is as far as the eye can see, while the other side is directly integrated into the "wall" that looks like an oil painting.

"The Mu family's house... shouldn't be this big, right?" Zhao Chen said in amazement, "And they put us next to the corner gate, which obviously shows that our status is not 'noble' enough."

“Although the mind world roughly corresponds to reality, the human mind is unpredictable. When countless people’s thoughts are intertwined, naturally any phenomenon is possible.

"Especially since this place is shrouded in the 'Domain of Law', it's even more bizarre." While Ming Xueling was speaking, he took Zhao Chen's hand and then propped up a "bubble" to cover the two of them.

This kind of "bubble" in dreams is not unique to the "Dream of the Goddess of Beauty". Many spiritual powers have similar forms, but the functions are slightly different.

What Ming Xueling simulated with the magical power of "All Things in the Universe" was exactly the "Traveling in the Realm of Mind", one of the three magical powers that can be achieved by the "Twelve Methods of Mind Light".

But simulation is just simulation. Unlike the real "Traveling in the Heart Realm" which allows one to roam freely in the Heart Realm, Ming Xueling's is obviously just a low-end version, which can only ensure, within a certain limit, that the two are not eroded by the various emotions and desires in the Heart Realm.

After glancing at the corner door, and then at the nothingness behind him, and the sound of "seawater" rushing out of the nothingness, Zhao Chen in the foam smiled and said to Ming Xueling beside him:

"Since we are here, let's give the owner some face and go in and take a look."

As soon as he finished speaking, the corner door opened by itself. At first glance, the light and shadow inside were mixed together, like a colorful mosaic, and it was impossible to see what was inside.

Zhao Chen was slightly stunned when he saw this, but after thinking about it, he still took Ming Xueling's hand and walked into the door.

"By the way, they have been saying that the spiritual island of the ruins has been moved here... then what about the original spiritual island of Xuancheng?" Zhao Chen asked curiously the moment he stepped through the corner gate.
