The Wonderful Way

Chapter 7

70 years ago, Chu Yi was still a respected elder of the late Yuanying period of the Chu family in the Northern Territory, at least until she met He Rumeng.

During a trip, Chu Yi met her Taoist companion by chance or fate, He Rumeng who came to Nanfeng Continent from Xisha Continent to look for her younger brother.

The two happened to go to the same destination, and when they got along, they both found that the other seemed to be made for themselves, and soon expressed their heartfelt love to each other and fell into sweetness.

In the world of cultivating immortals, it is normal for Taoist couples to form dual cultivators, but the two are destined not to be recognized by the two cultivators of righteousness and demons in Nanfeng Continent.

Because He Rumeng is not only a demon cultivator who is despised by most of the righteous ways, but also comes from the He family in the Xisha Continent that makes the demon cultivators of the Nanfeng Continent gnash their teeth when they mention it.

There are faint rumors that He Rumeng is the next head of the He family, the next owner of the magic ring, and some even say that the magic ring has already been handed over to He Rumeng.

……

More than 6000 years ago, there were three true kings of Suhui in Nanfeng Continent, Qingfeng, a demon cultivator, Shangshan and Xuanzhen, a Taoist cultivator. For some reason, the three provoked a war between righteousness and demons, which lasted intermittently for hundreds of years.

It was not until Qingfeng Zhenjun was killed by Shangshan and Xuanzhen that the battle officially ended, but the battle between Shangshan and Xuanzhen began.

The cause of the quarrel between the two was the missing demon spirit treasure, the magic ring. The magic ring was a mid-level spirit treasure.

After the fall of Qingfeng Zhenjun, they disappeared. Both of them suspected that the other party got the object and did not want to destroy it, so they began to slander each other for falling into the evil way.

In the end, Shangshan Zhenjun was defeated and was killed by Xuanzhen Zhenjun. He did not find the magic ring until Xuanzhen Zhenjun ascended.

The Demon Attracting Ring is in the Southern Continent, but it is not known where it was hidden by True Monarch Qingfeng. This news makes both the righteous and the demons ready to move.

The two Taoists, the righteous and the devil, fought fiercely because of this, and both wanted to find the magic ring before the other, but one generation after another had searched for it for thousands of years, but they still couldn't find it.

Xisha Continent has always been dominated by demon cultivators, and there are not many righteous monks. After hearing that the magic ring is in Nanfeng Continent, Xisha monks also secretly established many hidden teleportation arrays and came here to look for it.

The He family is a big magic cultivator family with a long history in the Xisha Continent, and the head of the He family also came to the Nanfeng Continent to try his luck.

Originally, there was no hope, but who would have thought that the Demon Attracting Ring, which both the good and the evil have been looking for for thousands of years, happened to be born in a secret place, and was found by Patriarch He.

The rebirth of the magic ring was bound to be accompanied by celestial phenomena. Patriarch He was already a deity, and when the monks from both sides arrived, he killed several nascent souls from the Nanfeng Continent, and returned to the family across the border.

The Xisha Continent has always been respected by strength, and there are two or three cultivators of the He Family Huashen, whose strength is no less than that of the number one sect, the Seven Emotions Sect, not to mention that the He family has a close relationship with the Seven Emotions Sect.

The He family who got the magic ring became the leading family in the Xisha Continent, and the monks who wanted to go to the He family to steal the magic ring did not end well.

In Nanfeng Continent, the righteous and demons fought one generation after another for 2000 years, but they were robbed of the fat in their mouths by foreign monks at the door of their homes, and many Nascent Soul monks were killed.

The entire world of cultivating immortals had to seal off several found cross-boundary teleportation arrays to stop the civil strife and recuperate.

After this incident, the monks of the righteous demon way in Nanfeng Continent hated the members of the He family, and there have been constant disputes for thousands of years.

……

Chu Yi and He Rumeng only spent 20 years peacefully in love in Nanfeng Continent, and He Rumeng's identity was exposed.

Only one person can recognize the owner of the magic ring, that is, the past patriarchs of the He family, so as soon as the rumors about He Rumeng being the next patriarch of the He family came out, the two have been hunted and killed by the righteous and the evil since then.

Although the Chu family has been helping the two secretly, it is only one family after all, unable to resist the coercion of all monks of the two ways of righteousness and evil, so they had to let the two resign themselves to their fate.

He Rumeng's father is the current head of the He family, and she is also rumored to be the next owner of the magic ring. She is almost a thorn in the side of the Nanfeng Continent's magic cultivators.

Even if she knew that the magic ring might not really be in her hands, if it was in the He family, she would not be able to take it no matter what, she still wanted to kill He Rumeng here.

After a few fights, both sides were already red-eyed, fearing that the two would go to the Xisha Continent through the secret cross-border teleportation array.

The two Taoists, the righteous and the devil, almost simultaneously guarded all the places they found that could be teleported across borders, just waiting for the two to take the bait.

Chu Yi and He Rumeng had no choice but to run around while resisting. Six years ago, when He Rumeng was careless, Yuanying was seriously injured by a monk, and the two went to the southern region.

Because they didn't want to be found by people from the cultivating world, the two had no choice but to stay away from the city of monks, and found a small mountain village with relatively good feng shui aura to stop to heal and recuperate. Only then did they find out that He Rumeng was pregnant.

Once a monk enters the alchemy stage, it is very difficult to have children, and He Rumeng is already in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, and may only have this child in this life.

He Rumeng suppressed the injury, and didn't even dare to take the high-level elixir, for fear of hurting the child in her womb, so she only focused on protecting the pregnancy and letting the Nascent Soul's injury recover on its own.

Soon it was the time of Chu Miao's birth, He Rumeng tried all her strength but failed to give birth to Chu Miao, so she had to exhaust her true energy to force Chu Miao out.

But the Nascent Soul that had been suppressed all the time and failed to recover also shattered almost at the same time, and passed away without even being able to hug her daughter.

……

Listening to her father calmly recounting the past, Chu Miao felt a deep sense of powerlessness in her heart only when she said that her mother had died.

The picturesque smile of her mother before her death is still imprinted in her mind, and soon her father can only be stored in her mind and cannot be seen again.

After Chu Yi finished speaking, she continued to suppress the demon energy with all her strength, took off the storage ring in her hand, and took out a women's storage ring, a jade hairpin and two jade pendants from her sleeve and handed them to Chu Miao.

"This is the entire net worth of me and your mother, and you can't open it now that your cultivation level is low, and you can't use the things in it now.

The two rings and your mother's body-protecting spirit hairpin have concealment formations, and it is difficult for ordinary cultivators to find out. You wear the spirit hairpin on your body to protect yourself, and you can open it after the foundation of the storage ring is established.

The two jade pendants are the tokens of the Chu family and the He family respectively. You should cultivate well in the southern region, and you must have the power to protect yourself before returning to the northern region. Do you remember? "

Chu Miao took it with tears in her eyes, and nodded heavily, her bitten lips could only tremble slightly, but she couldn't say a word.

Chu Yi didn't open the barrier all this time, but gently stroked Chu Miao's face through the barrier, and forced a smile, but her eyes were full of reluctance.

"Father went out to lure the bad guys away, you wait here for a while before you go out, you must live well in the future, whether it is in the past life or the present life, don't let hatred blind your eyes."

After finishing speaking, he placed another barrier on Chu Miao, and left the dark cave without looking back.

Chu Miao in the barrier tightly held the two rings and jade pendant left by her father, unable to hear any movement outside.

She knew that her father's Nascent Soul could not be saved, and she also knew that her father dragged his wounded body to go out to lure away the monks chasing him outside, so that she could live well.

She could only wait in the strangely quiet barrier, filled with hatred for her own insignificance.

Without strength, I am like an ant, always unable to protect the people I value in my heart, and even the chance of revenge for them seems so far away.

Chu Miao has never closed her eyes to rest, nor has she been able to calm down to practice. After sitting for a few days, Chu Miao felt a palpitation, as if she had lost something.

The enchantment shattered into pieces, and then shattered into grains of light. After illuminating the dark cave for a moment, it completely dissipated in the darkness.

Chu Miao knew that the only family member in this life had also left her, and now she was really the only one left.
