The Fairy: From the Traveling Merchant

Chapter 722 A blessing in disguise
After coming out of the Zheng family villa, Zhao Chen looked at the pocket watch he carried with him and found that there was still some time before the train departed, so he simply chose to walk to the station and take a look at the city at his feet.

Mianchi is an ancient city. It is said that it was the place where Qin and Zhao held a meeting in ancient times.

Of course, Zhao Chen also learned about this in the history books he learned in his previous life. After all, he was required to memorize the famous "Meeting at Mianchi".

But the strange thing is that although the geographical environment of Mianchi City in Xuantian World is completely different from the world in the previous life, this allusion still remains...

It's just that Xuantian's version of the "Meeting at Mianchi" is somewhat biased towards "martial arts fantasy" or "role of fiction", because according to the "history" of this world, Lin Xiangru is a cultivator with all nine orifices opened and the "special power" of the He Shi Bi, who can perform various types of magical abilities.

The King of Qin was forced to "beat the drum" for the King of Zhao because of his military intimidation...

"The Heshi Bi has strange powers? Oh, are there four great books and the evil king's relics in this world?" Zhao Chen complained and continued to ponder.
"In short, although the history of Xuantian Ancient is roughly the same as the world of my previous life before Emperor Zhuangzong of Tang, it seems to be mixed with many familiar settings from literary works...

"Is this a coincidence, or is it the so-called 'radiation of civilization'?
"Or maybe, there is something that is 'weaving' a script for this world...

"After the Jiashen Heavenly Change and the emergence of evil spirits, this world has developed its own 'characteristics'."

Zhao Chen was touring this ancient city and thinking, and unknowingly he had walked to the street near the station. But at this moment, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye.

Although the man was wearing a long robe and a hood, Zhao Chen still recognized from his back that he was the "excuse" for him and Yan Hongxia to enter Jiuzhou - the fourth of the "Seven Heroes of Mo Nan", "Fire Cloud Gun" Lu Zhen.

He was hiding in Mianchi? Zhao Chen's heart was slightly moved, but he had no intention of arresting him. After all, he took the mission only to facilitate his actions in Jiuzhou. If he was really caught, his privileges would be gone, and it would not be worth it.

What's more, even for the sake of "Little Black Cat" and Wan'er, he couldn't really take credit for the work of Lu Sixia.

But since he had met him, Zhao Chen decided to find out what the other party was like now. If he had been completely contaminated by the "Blood Moon", he would have to deal with him...

After thinking for a while, Zhao Chen took out the "Hundred Flowers Book" stored in the "Fengyun Heming Ring" and released the "Flower Fairy" Feng Wuxian.

With the blessing of "Hundred Flowers Book", Lady Wind has obtained the charm of "Samadhi Divine Wind". Her combat power is no less than that of ordinary low-grade magical powers. It should not be a problem for her to track Lu Zhen who is in Gangsha Realm.

And unlike the other two "flower fairies", Feng Wuxian had to show up regularly and report her safety to her family, otherwise there was no guarantee that Feng Jinzhang would not find her.

As soon as Feng Wuxian's figure appeared in reality, she felt an inexplicable force in the void sweeping over her. The force only dissipated until a pattern similar to a waxing moon appeared on the back of her hand.

When Zhao Chen entered the customs, he was branded with a "Grade B Pass". As the "Hundred Flowers Book" was a magical tool that he had completely refined, the "Flower Fairy" inside it was naturally connected to Zhao Chen's destiny and could share his pass authority, so he was not marked by the "Zhou Tian Xing Chen Array".

After giving a few simple instructions to Feng Wuxian, Zhao Chen continued to walk towards the station, while Lady Feng quietly fell behind Lu Zhen.

……

In a dark alley in the Mianchi station area, Lu Zhen walked quickly, because not only Zhao Chen saw him, he also saw the man who had possessed the fifth sister's body and mind.

His feelings towards Zhao Chen were actually very complicated. There was jealousy and hatred, but he also felt a little ashamed. He felt that it was the right decision for Fifth Sister to choose him instead of him.

But no matter what, he didn't want to face his "rival" in such an embarrassing way, so he had to avoid him. But at this moment, several men dressed in shabby clothes appeared at both ends of the road and blocked him in this narrow alley.

"Kid, this road belongs to the Fiery Gang. You have to pay a toll for trespassing." The leading man played with a knife in his hand and said with a fake smile, "If you know what's good for you, hand it over yourself. This will save us trouble and you will also avoid a beating."

This person was actually in a good mood today, so the tone of his speech was not bad.

But what he didn't know was that after hearing these words, Lu Zhen's eyes, which were hidden by his hood, instantly turned red, and he kept muttering, "Everyone wronged me... Everyone bullied me... Everyone used me... Now even the gangsters dared to come and block me..."

It has to be said that Lu Sixia has been really unlucky recently. He was originally helping his fifth sister to find a replica of the "Yunxiao Golden Crow Crown", but was suddenly told that his family was a den of evil spirits. Not only did his parents and relatives all believe in the "Blood Moon", but he himself had been contaminated by the "Blood Moon" since he was born.

He didn't want to be imprisoned in the prison of the Taoist Office for the rest of his life, so he fought off the Taoist officials who were chasing him and escaped to the Central Plains using a fake identity he had made in the past... But who would have thought that the two Taoist officials were killed by someone unknown and the crime was pinned on him.

Until now, Lu Sixia felt that he was dreaming and had no idea why he had ended up in this situation.

Under such circumstances, his encounter with Zhao Chen had already caused his emotions to fluctuate violently and he fell into self-pity. Now the gang robbery had become the last straw that broke the camel's back.

In an instant, the power of the "Blood Moon" hidden deep in his soul was about to invade his spirit and begin to truly pollute his mind.

But at this moment, a strong wind suddenly blew through the entire alley, blowing the gang members to the ground and making them unable to stand steadily.

Then, a cold female voice came from the wind: "Get out!"

The gang members were not ignorant. They knew that there were cultivators from the Gangsha realm coming to do justice, so they ran away in disgrace without saying a word.

However, they didn't know that Feng Wuxian who came following Lu Zhen was actually the one who saved them.

She didn't want to show up at first, but the changes in Lu Zhen forced her to reveal herself in advance.

On the other hand, after Feng Wuxian drove away the gang members, Lu Zhen actually gradually recovered from that extreme emotion and got out of the state of being almost "contaminated", which surprised Feng Wuxian.

After all, once emotions are ignited by the power of "evil", it is actually very difficult to control them.

What she didn't know was that the reason why Lu Zhen was able to control himself so freely was actually because Ma Guangliang had forcibly catalyzed his "seed of rage".

Unlike the others who all helped to give birth to and picked the flowers that bloomed from the seeds themselves, which caused some damage to their spirits but had almost no sequelae, Lu Zhen was just fishing in a dry pond.

Therefore, no matter how "angry" he was, he was powerless to continue, and when the "fuel" was gone, the potential power of the "Blood Moon" would naturally dissipate on its own.

This can be considered as "a blessing in disguise".
