After Cultivating With the Enemy
Chapter 24
"...I have heard about this medicine. It is a kind of herb called blood lotus. It has very strong spiritual power and is used by the demons to promote cultivation. If taken by ordinary immortals, it will be The pure celestial power in the body is repulsive, useless, and invisible. It's just...
A Tao's voice paused for a while, and she looked at Ji Chaoyun thoughtfully.
Ji Chaoyun immediately understood the deep meaning of her words.
Only because he is a half-immortal and half-demon body, the immortal power in his body is not pure, so he will be stimulated by the blood lotus mushroom, and his demon power will get out of control.
What did Feng Qi notice: "This person... knows his physique very well?"
"Yes." A Tao said, "Although this little boy is half-fairy and half-demon, he hides well. If it weren't for the pulse diagnosis, I hadn't even seen it. But the person who prescribed the medicine seemed to know the boy well and his weakness. , Will use the blood lotus."
Ji Chaoyun's eyes moved slightly and asked, "Blood lotus...where should I find it?"
"Can't find it." Atao shook her head, "Blood lotus is extremely difficult to cultivate, and it needs a lot of magic breath supply for its growth. Once it loses its source of supply, it will die within three days. In other words, except for the land of the Demon Realm, It is impossible for blood lotus to grow anywhere else."
"Devil's Domain?" Feng Qi frowned and asked, "Are you trying to say that someone brought blood lotus mushrooms from the Demon's Domain? How is this possible?"
"Yeah, how is this possible..." A Tao tapped her fingertips on the table and said softly, "Three hundred years ago, the demons attacked violently and almost captured Xianyu. Xianyu was forced to ask God for help, Tianshen. He came into the world and fell into a bitter battle with the demons. After that, the demons were defeated and the gods completely sealed the demons. All demons would never step out of the demons forever."
"...Three hundred years, how could blood lotus mushrooms suddenly appear in Xianyu?"
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became serious, only Ji Chaoyun'an was sitting quietly at the table, his eyes drooping and his expression unclear.
After a long while, Feng Qi spoke with a difficult voice: "Is the seal of Demon Realm already loose?"
A Tao raised her head, no more joking in her eyes: "If this is the case, Xianyu will be a catastrophe. And this time, you and I will not be spared."
Because God's Domain had been closed three hundred years ago, this time, no one would come to help them.
If this is the case, it will be a disaster.
Feng Qi and A Tao fixedly looked at each other. After a while, he took out two things from the storage ring and put them on the table.
Feng Qi said, "Since you know that thing, please help me to check whether there is that blood lotus in the two."
A Tao pondered for a moment, and said, "I need half a day."
"can."
A Tao collected the two things, and said, "But what I just said was just a guess, and I couldn't make it accurately. In case there is someone who has nothing to do and cultivates the blood lotus mushroom with a magic weapon, it is not impossible. "
Ji Chaoyun suddenly asked: "Do you know who has this ability?"
A Tao obviously didn't expect that he would be so sharp, his expression changed slightly, and she said: "There is a half-mob in the sea market, who was left in the fairyland during the melee and had nowhere to go, so he hid in the Wuminghai. That guy. I still can’t let go of my homeland, and I’m immersed in messing around with some messy magic weapons and demonic exercises. Ask him, maybe you will gain."
A Tao pointed out a place for them, Ji Chaoyun stood up and bowed to A Tao: "Thank you, Girl Tao."
Atao nodded, and the latter turned around and went straight out.Feng Qi was about to keep up, but heard A Tao say behind him: "You little beauty, it seems not easy."
Feng Qi glanced at Ji Chaoyun, who had already walked out of the room, and smiled triumphantly at A Tao: "Well, I'm a good person, right?"
A Tao sighed, and said with a sense of sourness: "It's better to be careful with a half-demon and half-immortal body. If you are so unrestrained, you are not afraid that he will suck your essence?"
Feng Qi was startled, and the strange feeling that has been lingering since waking up today finally has a vague answer.
He only felt suddenly cheerful and smiled: "Thanks Atao, if there is a chance in the future, I will also introduce you to a beauty."
"Go away, I don't need it!"
Feng Qi smiled happily, turned around and went out.
The three of them left the Luohuan Tower and followed A Tao's guidance to find the place where the half-mozu lived.On the way, Feng Qi simply relayed what A Tao had said to Jiang Cheng. While he said, he focused all of his attention on Ji Chaoyun.
Ever since seeing A Tao, Ji Chaoyun has been unsettled and seems to have something else on his mind.
After hearing Feng Qi's words, Jiang Cheng pondered: "So, the person who started the attack is not just trying to frame Ji Chaoyun for cheating? Then he is... Dead Phoenix, did you listen to me?!"
Feng Qi looked away from Ji Chaoyun and asked, "Are you talking to me?"
Jiang Cheng gritted his teeth with anger, and said coldly: "...No, get out."
Ji Chaoyun listened to the two people bickering behind him, but his thoughts gradually drifted away.
Why is it a demons?
Is the seal of Demon Realm really loose?Or...there is actually someone else behind the scenes.
"The Mozu came here prepared this time. They know our plan well. I think there may be their internal response in the fairyland."
"The Immortal Domain is at stake, and no one can trust it. Xiaolong, wait for me in the mortal world. When I seal the Demon Domain, I will come back to pick you up."
"...I will definitely be back."
Ji Chaoyun raised his hand subconsciously, and just touched the familiar purse through the clothes, and immediately let go of his hand like lightning.
This action was pure instinct, he was stunned. He hadn't figured out why he was doing this, and suddenly a dangerous strange flashed in his heart.
Ji Chaoyun paused, stopping the two behind him: "Wait, something is wrong."
Feng Qi and Jiang Cheng were quarreling vigorously, stopped at hearing the word, and then noticed the weirdness.They have now walked into a remote narrow alley, which extends in all directions, winding and winding, where the half-devil lives.
The three of them raised their heads in clusters, and several dark shadows in black fell from the top of the roof, surrounding them.
Black clothes, long swords, rainy night.
Ji Chaoyun's pupils shrunk slightly, his gaze crossed several people in black and looked towards the end of the lane, where a shadow flashed by.
"Leave it to you here!"
Ji Chaoyun quickly explained, drew out the matching sword and waved it, and Ling Xun's sword intent tore a gap in the surrounding circle.He didn't hesitate, and dashed to chase away.
He used this sword too fast, and the black-clothed man who attacked them was too late to react. When he wanted to chase them again, he was blocked by a slender figure.Feng Qi shook the golden whip and slammed the few people in front of Jiang Cheng, before turning his head to look at Ji Chaoyun's leaving back, with a secret smile in his eyes.
The little dragon hadn't noticed yet, his spiritual power had increased a lot overnight.
"Fuck, Feng Qi, why are you in a daze? Help!" Jiang Cheng was the only one left in the narrow lane, shouting angrily.
Feng Qi retracted his gaze, his tone of voice was not hurried, "I am injured, and I can't use force. The owner of Jiang Xiaodao will work harder, you can't beat these little things?"
While speaking, someone stabbed at Feng Qi, Feng Qi dodged and kicked the person in front of Jiang Cheng, almost hitting him head-on.
In Jiang Cheng's curse, Feng Qi calmly said: "You hit first, I'll go see Chaoyun."
"Dead Phoenix, you—"
He stopped paying attention to Jiang Cheng and turned to chase after Ji Chaoyun left.
On the other side, Ji Chaoyun followed the shadow all the way to chase, not knowing how many turns he had turned, his footsteps suddenly stopped.
In front of him is a house with a courtyard.The door of the old room was hidden, making it impossible to see what was inside.Ji Chaoyun pondered for a moment, then raised his hand and pushed open the door. At this moment, a flash of blood flashed in the courtyard.
The man with a sword pierced his chest fell to the ground, his unquenched eyes crossed the black man in front of him, and he caught Ji Chaoyun's gaze outside the upper courtyard.
The blood on Ji Chaoyun's face faded, and the memories of his previous life and dying came back.
"The realm of the gods is already closed, and it will not be possible to open it within a thousand years. What is the use of keeping the Phoenix Golden Ling, do you think he will come back?!"
"Even if we kill you now, no one will know, hand over the things!"
The bloody and shattered memory finally merged into a complete scene at this moment, Ji Chaoyun raised his head, the past and reality overlapped before his eyes.
The man in black turned his back to him, and the sword edge rolled a string of blood on his feet.Ji Zhaoyun finally saw clearly that what was hidden under the black hood was a pure white mask with only his eyes exposed.
"...It really is you."
Ji Chaoyun breathed quickly, and his voice was so low that he could hardly hear him.
The man in black didn't hear what he was talking about, but smiled softly: "If I were you, I would never chase you alone."
Ji Chaoyun: "Who are you on earth?"
"...The one who wants your life."
As soon as the man in black had finished speaking, he pierced Ji Chaoyun with his sword.It wasn't until this time that Ji Chaoyun could see clearly that the long sword in his hand was covered with a layer of black mist, making it difficult to see what it looked like.
Ji Chaoyun stepped back subconsciously. The familiar sights of past and present intertwined made him look in a trance, and his movements couldn't help but slow down by half a minute.
Jianfeng came in a flash, and it was too late to escape.Ji Chaoyun had only time to protect the vital point in a short time, and was about to suffer this sword for life.
But at this moment, a golden light struck the edge of the sword, and Ji Chaoyun was pulled from behind and slammed into an embrace.
Feng Qi guarded Ji Chaoyun and stepped back, eagerly asking, "Is it okay? Are you injured? Can't you wait for me if you let you catch up?"
Ji Chaoyun raised his head to look at the person in front of him with a trance.
Those people in the previous life came for the Phoenix Golden Ling, and only he could open the purse containing the Phoenix Golden Ling, so he didn't die at the hands of those people in the first place.
Like a predator teasing his prey, he was chased by those people for several days, almost exhausted.
He once prayed in his heart, no matter who it is, as long as he can save him.
But no one came to death.
Ji Chaoyun lowered his eyes, his throat was a bit dry: "I'm sorry, I'm afraid he will run away..."
"Go back and pack you." Feng Qi pulled him behind and looked up at the person in front of him, but a strange sense of familiarity flashed in his heart, "You are..."
Before he finished speaking, the man in black suddenly smashed a talisman, and his figure turned into a ray of light and disappeared in place.
Transmission symbol.
Only Feng Qi and Ji Chaoyun were left in the courtyard looking at each other. After a while, Jiang Cheng panted and rushed: "How, have you caught someone?"
Feng Qi spread his hands and said innocently, "I've run away."
"..."
Ji Chaoyun stepped forward and squatted down beside the corpse that had gradually begun to cool down: "This should be the half-devil clan mentioned by Miss Atao. It has been killed."
"One sword kills, there is no room for struggle." Feng Qi said, "I don't know if that person is too strong or this half demon is too weak."
"Very strong." Ji Chaoyun raised his eyes to look at Feng Qi, and said, "If you really fight, it may not be under you."
Feng Qi sighed, and Jiang Cheng asked, "So who the hell is that? How did he know that we found this place and lay in ambush beforehand? My mother thought it was the school disciple who wanted to make Ji Chaoyun a stumbling block. what's up?"
"..."
"You see what I do, what I said is wrong?"
Ji Chaoyun lowered his head to stare at the deadly corpse, and suddenly stretched out his hand to gently close the opponent's eyes.
Feng Qi averted his gaze and patted Jiang Cheng on the shoulder: "Don't ask, the owner of Jiang Xiaodao, quickly find out if there is anything useful. The sea is not safe, so we will return to the academy as soon as possible."
The three of them almost turned the courtyard upside down, did not find any valuable clues, and had to return empty-handed.
It was going to be dark when he returned to the academy. Feng Qi declined Jiang Cheng’s desire to return to Wen Qufeng with them, and then analyzed and analyzed the current clues’ proposal, and ensured that A Tao’s results would be notified immediately, he would be driven away, and Ji Chaoyun returned Wen Qufeng.
The two were walking slowly on the mountain road of Wenqu Peak, Ji Chaoyun kept his eyes down and said nothing.
Feng Qi wanted to reach out and hand him: "Chaoyun."
Ji Chaoyun instinctively shrank back and avoided his hand.Feng Qi's hand froze in the air, Ji Chaoyun looked away and asked, "Sorry, what did you say?"
Feng Qi calmly retracted his hand, with a natural expression: "It's okay, I just want to talk to you about the person I just met."
Ji Chaoyun: "Didn't you say that clues are missing now, there is nothing to say?"
"That's for Jiangcheng." Feng Qi smiled and said, "If you are not tired, come with me. I will take you to a place."
The two diverted their way up the mountain in the depths of the bamboo forest, passed through the bamboo forest halfway up the mountain and quickly reached the summit.When they reached the summit, the sun was just setting, and the rays of the sky had not yet dissipated, and it was reflected in the distant peaks.
"It's not bad here?" Feng Qi said proudly, welcoming the sunshine, "They say that Jiutianya is the most beautiful scenery of the academy. They have never been to Wenqu Peak before. I cast a spell on Wenqu Peak, here at four o'clock The changes are the same as in the world, spring, summer, autumn and winter, the sun and the moon alternate, and the scenery is not much better than the Jiutian Cliff, which has been like a day for thousands of years?"
Ji Chaoyun was in no mood to laugh with him, and asked, "You brought me here just to see this?"
"Well, not really." Feng Qi sat down on the bluestone on the top of the cliff, observed Ji Chaoyun's expression, and asked, "Have you already guessed what the other party's purpose is?"
Ji Chaoyun fell silent.
After a long time, he said softly: "I think... maybe they just want to drive me out of the college."
"...When I was in the mortal world, I met today's men in black. They wanted to grab my wallet."
Feng Qi: "Why didn't they succeed?"
Ji Chaoyun dodged his eyes a little, and said slowly: "I'm lucky, someone saved me."
Feng Qi nodded, did not ask any more, and said: "So they are making a comeback this time, it should be for this thing. They will give you medicine and drive you out of the academy, is it because you can't start at the academy?"
"maybe."
"But I still don't understand, what did they do with Phoenix Jin Ling?"
Ji Chaoyun was taken aback: "How do you know that there is Phoenix Jin Ling? Have you opened the purse?"
"..."
Ji Chaoyun tilted his head to look at him, the latter's expression erratic.After a long while, Feng Qi sighed and said truthfully: "I admit, I did open this thing. At that time, I redeemed my purse in Luohuan Tower. I was a little curious about what was inside, so... I accidentally opened it. I really did. I didn't mean to see your secrets."
Ji Chaoyun said in a daze: "But, but he said, this thing is only me and him..."
Feng Qi interrupted: "I know that there is a divine deed on this, and only you, him, and those who share his blood can open it."
The blood is common, and it is nothing more than father and son brothers, and relative descendants.
The more Feng Qi thought about it, the more desperate he became. He pressed his eyebrows, and his voice was a little weak: "Stop talking, I really don't want to know at all, what kind of blood relationship I have in common with that person."
