With Feng Xing

Chapter 16 The Feast of Flowers

The Hundred Flowers Banquet will be held tomorrow. After talking to Xing Zhi that day, Shen Li has not seen Xing Zhi again. Even under the same roof, it is extremely easy for two people with magical powers to avoid each other.

After that, Xing Zhi would still cook and deliver it to the door of Shen Li's room, but Shen Li would not move the meals served at noon until evening. After two days, Xing Zhi would no longer deliver meals.

However, Shen Li couldn't let herself go hungry. Although she didn't like the immortals in the heaven, she still had to go out and wander around every day. On this day, she wandered over to the venue where the Hundred Flowers Banquet was held, hoping to get some fairy fruits to satisfy her hunger, but she didn't expect She was about to grab a peach, but when she turned around, Goddess Luotian was standing behind her, staring at her.

Shen Li coughed softly: "The peaches in heaven grow quite big." After saying this, he was about to throw the peach back.Youlan said: "This peach is not that big. It comes from a peach tree that has been producing fruit for 100 years. It is not a rare thing. You can try this peach, and then try the 500-year-old peach on the plate next to it." , high and low will be judged."

Does this mean... let her eat whatever she wants?Shen Li blinked and looked at Youlan. Youlan looked away unnaturally and turned her head. She walked to Shen Li, picked three peaches, took a bottle of wine, stuffed it into Shen Li's arms, and drooped her head. Walked away.

Shen Li looked at the food in his arms and still didn't realize what he meant by this goddess now.Do you want to choke her to death with these peaches?Or do you want to frame her to steal the fairy fruit?There was a little fairy maid beside him who was busy. Shen Li turned around and asked, "If I take the things that your goddess gave me, won't they be stolen if I take them?"

The little fairy maid was startled: "The prince is joking. Since it was given by the goddess, it certainly doesn't count as stealing."

Shen Li raised an eyebrow and decisively took a peach and put it into his mouth.

Shen Li slowly returned to Xiyuan, drinking wine and eating peaches. But when she got to the room, Shen Li felt something was wrong. The wine in this world was a bit too strong. She couldn't open her eyes as soon as she fell on the bed. , Shen Li pulled up the quilt and buried her face in it, muttering: "I knew An An had bad intentions and was waiting for me here..."

Shen Li slept the whole night without waking up. It was not until the next day that the bell for the Hundred Flowers Banquet rang throughout the nine heavens, and it struck a full 81 times before Shen Li woke up.Shen Li stretched out his head from the quilt and woke up immediately when he saw the sky outside.

She is here on behalf of the demon world. If she is late, it will be a big joke.She turned over and sat up, quickly tied up her hair, and opened the door. Xingzhi was no longer there, and the guy didn't even call her!Shen Li felt an evil fire in her heart, but she suppressed it helplessly. It was best for them not to be roommates...

Walking to the front yard, Shen Li wanted to fly on the clouds, but suddenly a red light flashed across the sky. Shen Li frowned. At first, he thought it was a fireworks from heaven, but when he saw the red light getting closer and closer, it turned out to be a direct firework. Coming towards Xiyuan, Shen Li frowned. While he was still hesitating whether to stop him, he saw the red light suddenly accelerating and fell on the roof of the Xiyuan lobby. He only heard a "bang" and the earth trembled. The lobby of the garden collapsed, and the blazing flames spread instantly, burning an orange-red sky.

Heaven... was attacked?
This thought flashed through Shen Li's mind. She looked up and looked into the distance, only to see fireballs shot from nowhere hitting Xiyuan again. The place where one of the fireballs was about to fall was the place where the spiritual tablet was placed. Wing room!
The genuine smile on Xing Zhi's lips flashed across Shen Li's heart. Without any hesitation, she landed on the roof of the wing in a flash.

The magic power that had been washed away in the marrow washing pool had not yet been recovered. Shen Li shouted loudly and barely managed to form a semicircular barrier to protect the wing.However, this fireball was completely beyond her imagination. It was extremely hot and carried huge pressure. If the Phoenix was not born with fire, it might have been burned to ashes before she could catch the pressure.

There was a "click" sound under her feet, which was the crisp sound of broken tiles. Shen Li gritted her teeth and her eyes glowed red. She shouted in a deep voice, and the magic power around her body turned into a beam of golden light, heading straight towards the fireball with an overwhelming force. Go and shatter it from the inside, turning it into dust-like sparks that are scattered around the wing.

Shen Li stood alone on the roof, blood slowly dripping from his hand hanging down, as the wound on his back opened.

However, before giving her any time to rest, the fireball came towards her again.Shen Li's face was solemn, and he did not hide or evade. He clenched his fists, and his eyes showed the determination that he would never back down.

After the 81st bell rang, Tianjun bowed slightly and said to Xingzhi: "Shenjun, please take your seat." On such an occasion, even Tianjun could not sit in the highest seat, but no one knew that Xingzhi disliked sitting there the most. Regarding the location, the white jade seat on the steps is too cold...

A beam of red light flashed across the sky, and the eyes of the immortals followed. One of the immortals smiled and said: "Whose car is that? It looks so majestic and beautiful." Before he finished speaking, there was a loud noise, and the sky in the west became bright. Red, the fairy mist-shrouded cloud tops trembled, the cups and plates fell over, and everything fell into a mess. The fairy Gong'e couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice.However, after the panic, there was a period of terrible silence, and no one in Tianjie, who was used to being comfortable, realized what had happened.

Before Xing Zhi sat down on the white jade seat, he raised his eyes and saw several more fireballs chasing the previous red light in the distance.His brows darkened, and he felt a little panicked for no reason.

"Report——" The guard's long voice was particularly harsh in the silent Baihua Banquet. He ran all the way, his gorgeous and cumbersome armor making a crisp sound. The immortals loved the music, but no one had the intention to appreciate it at this time. With a crisp sound, the guard shouted in panic: "There's... there's a fire attack! Let's go to Xiyuan!"

All the immortals were shocked.The guard's voice was hoarse and trembling: "It's burning!"

As soon as the breeze passed, no one saw when the people present disappeared. When everyone came back to their senses, the figure of the God of Xingzhi was nowhere to be found at the Baihua Banquet. Only then did the Heavenly Lord react and hurriedly summoned the generals and hurriedly distributed As for the task, he personally led a group of people to Xiyuan quickly.

King Bi Cang went to the banquet on behalf of the Demon Realm, but she was not present at this time. She should still be in Xiyuan. If she was attacked in the Heaven Realm, it would not be easy to explain to the Demon Realm. Moreover, Xiyuan also enshrines the spiritual throne of the ancient god... Look at Xingzhi Shenjun He knew from his anxious look that those spiritual positions were extremely important to him and he couldn't afford to lose any of them.If the guards fail to do so and the god becomes angry, that will be terrible.

The fireballs fell one after another, and all the roof tiles under Shen Li's feet were shattered. She cursed those idiots in Xingzhi and Tianjie more than once. They didn't know how to set up a barrier to protect such an important place, and after it happened for so long, they... Doesn't anyone see something wrong here? !With such a high-profile attack in the air with fireballs, no one would find the attacker and kill him? !

The idle people in the heaven have really lived in comfort for too long, and their brains have been used to gain weight!If the demon world were to attack the heaven one day, Shen Li felt that it wouldn't take more than a day to make these drunken people surrender!

Another fireball fell, and the force was a bit heavier than before. Shen Li heard the creaking of the beams under her feet. Obviously, this wing could not support it for much longer, and these attacks were not over yet... Shen Li Li gritted her teeth, feeling extremely aggrieved. She had always been good at attacking but not at defending, and she liked quick battles. The barrier that had allowed her to hold on for so long today would be more comfortable if she was directly slashed several times by the enemy.

The wound on her back kept opening, and the blood had soaked the clothes on her back. Excessive blood loss and lack of mana gradually made Shen Li unable to hold on. Her body felt like it was being hollowed out, and fireballs hit her chest one by one. The huge pressure caused her to bend her knees slightly, and what was even more troublesome was the scorching flames. Without the magic power, the fragments of fireballs penetrated into Shen Li's already precarious barrier, branding her cheeks. A red mark, but Shen Li never cared about skin injuries, as she was afraid that those sparks would burn her eyes... Just as she was thinking about it, a spark whizzed towards her pupils, and Shen Li closed her eyes subconsciously, lowering her head to avoid it. .

However, just when she was in a daze, another fireball hit the place where Shen Li was standing. The huge impact caused Shen Li's legs to weaken, and she knelt hard on the beam with one knee. She just heard " With a "click" sound, the beam broke, and a piece of it was dented where Shen Li was kneeling.

Suffering this sudden blow, the unstable aura in Shen Li's body became even more chaotic, and her blood surged. Even though she suppressed it with all her strength, blood still spilled from the corners of her mouth.However, she didn't know if she had an illusion at this critical moment. It seemed that a cool air burst out from the damaged beams and wrapped around her body, easing the burning pain.

But at this moment, Shen Li didn't have the energy to feel the coolness. She just felt that this was the first time in her life that she was forced into such a situation without even seeing the enemy. It was really frustrating!Shen Li was angry. When she looked up, she saw a fireball that was bigger than all the previous fireballs coming quickly.

The word "bad" flashed across her mind, and suddenly she felt a sharp chill in her body. The huge pressure was instantly removed. The white clothes floated in front of her eyes. Shen Li, who was kneeling on one knee, saw only one person in the backlight. Back view.

Because he was going to attend the Hundred Flowers Banquet, the bun on his head was pulled up in a more regular manner than usual, but he still looked lazy. When the hot wind blew, his clothes and long hair flew together, making him look very chic.His figure blocked all heat waves and pressure.Shen Li covered her chest with one hand, feeling that her heart, which had been beating rapidly due to the battle just now, seemed to be soothed and soothed.

This back view... can bring too much sense of security.

For King Bicang, it is a sense of security that is rarely experienced...

The heat wave approached, and the huge fireball surged forward with a force that seemed to turn everything into ashes. His face was calm, and he only touched his hand gently, and the fireball suddenly stopped, like a vicious dog with a collar. , I reached the limit of the rope and could no longer move forward.

"Get out!" Xing Zhi yelled and waved his sleeves, only to see the huge fireball being thrown back easily at the same speed and trajectory...

Throw... back.

Shen Li seemed to understand why Heaven did not allow gods to have feelings. If such a powerful power could be used as it pleased and used for personal relationships, wouldn't the world be in chaos?
There was a blazing fire on the side where the fireball flew back, and sure enough, no more fireballs came.Thinking of the other party's busy appearance at this time, Shen Li felt funny, but her heart relaxed and her whole body felt even more tired. She lost too much blood and could no longer control her body. She leaned back and rolled off the tattered roof. Go down.

But before she fell to the ground, she was grabbed by someone as expected, but surprisingly, the person who grabbed her didn't just grab her.

Warm palms were pressed against her already soaked back, and the wounds on her cheeks were gently touched with cool hands.Xing Zhi's face magnified in front of her eyes. Even though Shen Li was too distracted to see anything else, Shen Li understood Xing Zhi's eyes.

He was angry, he was saying: "Shen Li, don't you want to live?"

"I can't die." She heard her muffled voice, "I'm just a little tired."

"Forcing yourself to do this for the sake of this house..." He seemed to be trying his best to suppress his emotions, "How... how heartless are you?"

"I can't..." Shen Li's eyes were about to close, and her tired body could not support her head. She fell forward with her forehead against Xing Zhi's shoulder, her voice was small and vague, "I can't ...It will leave you with no thoughts at all.”

When Xingzhi saw those spiritual statues, Shen Li only took one glance at them with his shining eyes and warm smile, and then he remembered them deeply in his heart and would never forget them again.

Xingzhi's fingertips trembled slightly, as if he had been struggling for a long time. He put one hand around Shen Li's back, and the other hand firmly pressed the back of her head, pressing her into his arms, sometimes tightening, sometimes loosening, He... couldn't control himself.

It turns out that there really is such a person, and he can't even control the strength in front of her...

His fingers gently touched her hair, and his lips fell right on Shen Li's ear. Xing Zhi lowered his eyes and lowered his voice. He was half helpless and half bitter, and only said to Shen Li: "Your Highness, you Are you really helping me control..."

Only then did Tianjun hurried over with his guards.Except for the wing room that Shen Li was desperately protecting, all other places had been burned to ashes. Xingzhi Shenjun held King Bi Cang in a pile of broken bricks and tiles. His back was turned to everyone, and no one could see the face of Shenjun. expression on.

Tianjun was slightly shocked: "Xingzhijun..."

"Don't come over." Xing Zhi's voice was light, "I'm helping King Bi Cang treat his injuries." He said, "No one is allowed to come over."

As expected, no one dared to step forward.

Xing Zhi stood in front of everyone, hugging Shen Li and hugging King Bi Cang, who usually looked so strong. Only then did everyone realize that compared to the Lord Shen, King Bi Cang was actually so petite... By the way. , King Bicang is also a woman, she was originally supposed to be slender and petite...

Tianjun ordered a thorough investigation into the fire attack on the heaven. However, it was only three days later that the scene was found in the northern corner of the heaven where the fireball thrown back by Xingzhi was messed up. There was not a single living person. The scene was placed there for people to search for. , the heavenly soldiers have been searching for it for so long, and their low efficiency makes all wise immortals worry.What is even more worrying is that the guy who attacked the heaven this time... is not a monster, not a monster, but the Beihai clan who has been lurking in the deep sea to the north.They are an extremely docile and peaceful ethnic group. They have never provoked a war for thousands of years, but this time they attacked the heaven like crazy. How many unbearable things has the heaven done in the lower world?
Tianjun was furious and immediately sent people to Beihai to find out.However, before the news about Beihai came back, the devil sent an urgent letter five days ago, which made Tianjun turn pale...

Xiyuan collapsed, and Shen Li returned to Fulong Jun's house. However, this time, in order to prevent someone from taking advantage of her serious injury, Fulong Jun personally added a barrier to the room where Shen Li lived, and he did not move or move. He moved into Fulongjun's house politely, and with two distinguished guests staying at home, Fulongjun could no longer act recklessly in the house, and felt very unhappy.

That day, he called an acquaintance of the Immortal Lord to play chess. The other party laughed at him: "Look, this King Bi Cang was injured. The Lord Long Yan was furious. Lord Xingzhi healed her injury and took good care of her. She was not married yet. , the Lord of God and Lord of Heaven supported King Bi Cang’s waist. It seems that the demon world is very prestigious. When we get married in the future, Lord Furong, you...tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk."

Fulongjun's face turned pale when he heard that. He swept away the chess pieces and threw them all over the floor. He said angrily: "I'm still using you to tease you! I came to you to ask you to cause trouble for me? Come on!"

The other party laughed instead of being angry. Just when Fulongjun was so angry that a burst of messy and fast footsteps came into the yard. Youlan's face was serious. Seeing the scene here, she said coldly: "Bicang Where is Wang Chenli?"

Fulong Jun was startled and rubbed his forehead in distress: "Sister Huang, why don't you come here to cause more trouble? She is protected by the Lord God now, how can we get better, please just calm down and go back."

Youlan's eyes were cold, and she stared at Furongjun and asked again: "Where is Bi Cang King Shen Li?"

Only then did Fulong Jun realize that something was wrong, and hesitantly said: "She is...in the wing room in the backyard. In order to recover from her injuries, I set up a barrier for her..."

"Take me there." After saying that, Youlan hurriedly walked forward. After taking two steps, she didn't see Fulong Jun following her. She turned back and glared at him sharply. Fulong Jun was frightened and hurriedly Youlan walked forward to lead the way and asked as he walked: "What happened?" Youlan ignored him. When he reached the door of the small courtyard, Fulongjun suddenly stopped and said, "I will open the barrier. , you go in, I won’t go, I’m afraid when I see Lord Xingzhi..."

Youlan didn't hesitate at all, and stepped into the courtyard. The barrier was closed behind her. It seemed that Fulong Jun had spent some time on the place where Shen Li was recovering from his injuries. The winding path led to the quiet place, and there were fragrant plants and trees on both sides of the path. Away from the hustle and bustle of the outside world.Youlan walked faster and faster, but stopped when she was about to walk out of the fragrant forest, because she faintly saw Shenjun and Shen Li standing at the door through the shadow of the trees. Shen Li had a look of hesitation on her face. The two are arguing.

"Why do you have to keep up with skin trauma for so long! It's a waste of time!" Shen Li stood inside the door, holding his hands outside the door to block it. His expression was indifferent, which further highlighted Shen Li's anxiety, "Let me out!"

"You can't go out until the injury is healed." Xing Zhi's voice was light.

"The injury has healed! Those fireballs are not as powerful as imagined..."

"If the spiritual energy in the room hadn't overflowed and my friends had protected your heart with divine power, do you think you could still speak so loudly today?"

Shen Li was stunned, and suddenly remembered that for a moment, she felt much refreshed all over her body. It turned out that... it was the energy of those spiritual places that overflowed to protect her... Shen Li felt that those ancient gods were really amazing. Only one tablet was destroyed, and he still had time to protect people... Shen Li continued: "In this case, I would like to thank you for helping Shen Li when you go to worship next time. In addition, since I was protected at that time, now Shi's injury is almost healed, please let me out quickly."

"No."

Shen Li was furious and asked one word at a time: "Why are you imprisoning me?"

"What are you doing out there?"

Shen Li smiled angrily: "Five days have passed, but Heaven Realm has not caught the mastermind yet. Why go to Beihai to find out the news? Even if the person who found out the information set out the day before yesterday, he can still be between Tianjie and Beihai in these two days. I have been running back and forth for more than a dozen times. Did the person seeking information fall into the water and get lost?" Shen Li scorned: "What an efficiency!"

Xing Zhi said with a smile: "Those who should be anxious should not be anxious, but you are here blindly anxious."

"I'll almost go blind if I'm locked up here!" Shen Li gritted his teeth and muttered to himself, "If it were in the past, I would have taken out the lair of those bastards with a gun."

"You feel unwilling to be beaten and want to take it back." Xing Zhi smiled and pierced her cover. Shen Li looked away. Because of her anger, her mouth subconsciously pursed a little, but the arc was extremely small. You can't notice it if you don't look carefully, but from the angle of walking, you can see her slightly bulging cheeks. The uneven skin color is the mark of her previous burns. Thinking about that day when she fell in his arms Xingzhi almost unconsciously pressed that piece of skin with his thumb and rubbed it twice.Shen Li's recovery ability is very good. Whether it is inside or outside the body, the skin under the fingertips has completely recovered in just five days, leaving only a little color...

"I'll get it back for you." He said softly.Shen Li was slightly startled by the hoarse voice. She looked up at Xing Zhi, and then opened his hand with a slap.She stared at him solemnly, her eyes cold and rational.

There were five finger prints on Xing Zhi's wrist. He looked at Shen Li for a while, then lowered his hand, letting the traces be covered by his large sleeves. He smiled, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Shenjun." Youlan suddenly spoke and walked out of the fragrant forest. She bowed and saluted. "Shenjun, Your Majesty." The two of them looked at Youlan. Before they could ask, Youlan said urgently, "Your Majesty, Tianjun invites you to go to the Lingxiao Palace. There is something important."

Hearing the solemnity in Youlan's words, Shen Li frowned: "Lead the way."

Xingzhi raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why can't you ask someone to send you a message?"

Youlan was silent: "Shenjun, this is really an important matter."

Xingzhi nodded: "In that case, let's go together."

In the Lingxiao Palace, the civil servants and generals of Heaven were on both sides. Tianjun was sitting on the dragon chair with a serious face. When he saw Xingzhi and Shen Li coming together, he frowned slightly and asked people to look at the seats in the first place on the left. Then he said: "King Bi Cang, here is an urgent letter from the devil world. Please take a look." The attendant presented the letter to Shen Li. Shen Li took it, glanced at it, and suddenly turned pale. His voice was sharp: "When did you receive the urgent message?"

"It came five days ago." Tianjun sighed, "But because of the fire attack, all the immortals were busy running around and neglected this urgent letter. Only today did someone submit it to me for reading."

Shen Li's face turned even colder, and Xingzhi said, "Tianjun, what happened?"

"The capital of the demon world was also attacked by the Beihai clan. The demon king fell into coma, more than ten demon generals died, and riots broke out everywhere... The situation is extremely dangerous."

Every time Tianjun said something, Shen Li's brows became tighter.This is the battle report from five days ago. Now the situation will only get worse. Shen Li has nothing to say about the efficiency of Tianjie. However, any complaints against allies at this time are useless. The more times like this, the more calm is needed. Analysis... Shen Li closed her eyes and cleared the surging emotions in her heart. After a moment, she said coldly: "It seems that the attack on the heaven five days ago was a feint attack. It was the opponent's method of attacking in the east and attacking in the west."

If you really want to attack Heaven, how can you only arrange a place to launch fireballs, and how can you attack a secluded place like Xiyuan? Others, naturally, could not help the Demon Realm, and its main troops attacked the Demon Realm... But... the Demon Lord fell into a coma, and more than ten generals died...

Such heavy casualties are not what the demon world should have. It is different from the heaven. Shen Li knows very well that those generals are all elites selected from ten thousand...

"Chen Li begs Tianjun to allow me to return to the demon world immediately."

"This is natural." Tianjun waved his hand, and someone else presented several boxes of elixirs, "The demon lord is in coma because he was seriously injured. King Bi Cang will take these boxes of elixirs back to the demon world and give them to the demon lord. I We have already recruited people and troops, and soon they will be able to help the demon world suppress the riots and eliminate the bandits."

"Thank you Tianjun." Shen Li took the elixir and turned around to leave without any delay.

Seeing Shen Li's figure disappearing at the entrance of Lingxiao Palace, Xing Zhi's eyebrows moved slightly, and suddenly he heard Tianjun calling from beside him: "What do you think of this matter, Lord God?"

"The riots in the Demon Realm and the attack on the Heaven Realm are by no means a coincidence. According to common sense, this should be a struggle for power. The Beihai clan may also be a borrowed cover."

Tianjun nodded: "The Divine Lord and I have thought of the same place. The Demon Realm has been subject to the Heaven Realm for many years, and there are many dissatisfied people among them. Some people are secretly working to overthrow the current political power of the Demon Realm and establish a new king. It is not surprising... It's just that at that time, the new king The king must be facing the heaven, which will be a huge trouble."

There was a bit of noise in the Lingxiao Palace for a while, as the civil servants and generals were talking softly with the people around them.

Tianjun turned his head and looked at Xingzhi: "Shenjun has been busy and tired recently, and the Hundred Flowers Banquet was not successful. It is really incompetent for me."

Normally, he would have to be polite, but today he didn't say a word. It seemed like he agreed with Tianjun's words, silently saying "You are incompetent."

Tianjun was silent, and all the officials were silent. Finally, Tianjun coughed twice and said slightly embarrassed: "The Lord Shen has been away from Tianwaitian for a long time. However, Tianwaitian is the source of clean air in the world. These days, the heaven is slightly chaotic and evil. Slightly heavier...God Lord..."

"I will go back to the outer world tomorrow." Xing Zhi said lightly and walked away.

There was silence in the Lingxiao Palace for a moment, and then Tianjun spoke: "This incident has exposed many shortcomings in the heaven. I think everyone has noticed it. After all, we have been living comfortably for too long, and such a small thing has caused chaos in the nine heavens. Once again, fellow immortals, what needs to be investigated and cleared up, it’s time to straighten things out.”

All the officials nodded and said yes.

As soon as Shen Li walked to Nantianmen, she didn't know what she was thinking. She turned around inexplicably and suddenly saw Xing Zhi standing ten feet behind, looking at her calmly.Shen Li cupped her fists and bowed deeply: "Thank you God for taking care of me these days." Without any attachment, Shen Li's long hair tied up high drew a clean arc in the air, and she jumped down to the Nantianmen.

Many days later, Xing Zhi thought about it more than once, why didn't he call her out that day?Why did you let her go so easily...

He obviously still has something to say...
