Chong Zi - Chapter 51 : The Devil's Return

Sima Miaoyuan was satisfied with Yudu's warning, and dared not utter half a sentence from what he saw on Chiyan Mountain that day. He offered his wish to Luo Yinfan many times to worship him under his chair, but Luo Yinfan still closed his eyes, and Qin Ke was still ascetic. He couldn't help it and became more disappointed. His heart was sullen, and at dusk, he wandered under Zizhu Peak again.

"Sima Miaoyuan?" Someone stops him.

Sima Miaoyuan saw that person coming, and reluctantly saluted, "First Shishu."

Because Mu Yu was the incarnation of the Heavenly Devil, the position of first disciple Nanhua was naturally vacant, and Qin Ke, his favorite disciple, had asceticised. So the first position of Nanhua was held by Wen Lingzhi.

Wen Lingzhi said indifferently, "Your Highness seems to be different from usual recently."

“Your Highness forgot things, and I heard that it was caused by self-inflicted fire,” said Sima Miaoyuan with a slight movement in her eyes and smiled.

How could he recognize everyone but only forget that one person? Wen Lingzhi looked at him, "Why can't Headmaster mention it, what's wrong?"

"The first Shishu's words were strange, how would I know?" Sima Miaoyuan half feigned surprise, but half really didn't understand, "Perhaps because he's afraid that His Majesty is still protecting that Evil Being, and a demon will appear in the future and cause damage to the Six Realms."

"Do you think it will benefit you if the old man forgets about you?" Wen Lingzhi said coldly, “Who instigated Yue Qiao's visit to the Ice Prison? You were the only one who could cause trouble that day. Were the Headmaster and Supervisor stupid? You better confess yourself, Sima Miaoyuan. ."

Back then, when she was demoted to the status of a poison bird, only Yan Zhenzhu did her best to help her with everything. Only then did he not believe it and instigated Yue Qiao to go to the Ice Prison to humiliate Chongzi, which ultimately led to disaster. 

Sima Miaoyuan had hidden ghosts in his heart, but now that he was exposed, he was shocked and frightened, but then he thought that this matter had not been investigated, he must have mastered them and was willing to protect himself, so he calmed himself down a little and said with a sneer , "As a disciple of the Overseer, does Shishu also want to spit blood? Brother Qin had entrusted Shishu before entering the hermitage, and he asked to be summoned if there was a big event. Now it is important to..."

Now that Chongzi has entered the demon, but Shishu is reluctant to communicate with him, isn't Shishu also selfish?"

"Really? Then he will punish me severely." Wen Lingzhi turned and left without changing her expression.

Seeing him leave, Sima Miaoyuan turned red with anger, and he stomped his feet after a while and thought; You just want to wait for them to kill Chongzi and then call Senior Brother Qin so you only need to say a few words. I will let Senior Brother Qin know that you are hiding it on purpose. Just see if he still has a good face towards you?

People like Sima Miaoyuan had long been accustomed to speculating on others based on their own thoughts. Thinking of this, he became complacent and used the sword to leave.

***

Above the bamboo forest, a white shadow descended soundlessly.

Looking at the direction where the two left, Luo Yinfan's face was extremely ugly.

When the Heavenly Demon was about to die, he asked him why he had forgotten about it. He already felt strange. Who will hear this conversation sound today. Did he really forget something important? Burned by self fire, was this an accident? What did he forget?

In an instant, a pair of huge black and white eyes slid from the depths of his heart, trying to catch him, but quickly disappeared without a trace.

He suddenly remembered those charming phoenix eyes.

Different eyes, but still the same eyes. The wounds of his despair, too deep, are unforgettable. As long as he saw it once, he would never forget it, it felt...

Luo Yinfan frowned, finally showing a hint of displeasure.

I forgot something, it must have something to do with the Zi Devil? No wonder he has such an attitude. I thought I knew him before. If it wasn't for the Heavenly Demon reminding him, he didn't know that the disciples were talking behind their backs when he heard that the spirits were abnormal. They must know the inside story and they even told him to hide it from me!

Against Ni Lun's blood, the Zi Devil has always been the scourge of the Six Realms. He mustn't be soft-hearted, luckily, his temper wasn't bad.

With the arrangement, Luo Yinfan began to pay attention to the news about Chongzi, but Chongzi completely disappeared. Not only had he not taken half a step away from the Demon Palace for three years. He didn't even come out of the main hall. The people in the Demon Palace found it very strange. Instead Demon Jiuyou? He was often in and out of the Queen's room so Meng Ji gave him a lot of criticism.

It's much easier to destroy something than to protect it. During this period, the Jiuyou Demon Palace created several disasters in the Human Realm, causing countless casualties. The Immortals were busy dealing with it until July of the fourth year, coincidentally, Luo Yinfan passed through Shuiyue City, just at the time when the demons were wreaking havoc, he helped the remaining Xianmen disciples to drive away the demon army, and only then did he find out the clues from the soldiers' mouths.

On the hillside outside the city, Luo Yinfan dropped his sword and looked around.

The plants and trees were no different from the other hillsides, but there was a familiarity in his eyes.

Luo Yinfan was secretly surprised, but he was relieved very quickly. The Six Realms are immense, and the years are limitless. Where they live, people in Xianmen remember where they have been, or whether they have been here before.

It is said that the Zi Devil often comes here?

Sensing the devil energy, Luo Yinfan turned around and disappeared.

Long hair like a cloud, without any decoration, casually wrapped, wearing a black robe with a dark purple piping around the waist is very simple. He was never blown away by the wind, his whole being was just a gust of wind, light and fluttering, and stopped beside a boulder in an instant.

Luo Yinfan's eyes moved slightly.

Should he kill with a sword or ask plainly?

At this moment, she slowly crouched down and sat on the ground, with her back close to the big stone, her arms folded over her knees, like a normal sad girl.

The sky is not dark, there is no moon and stars, only light clouds.

But she only half raised her pure face, looking up at the sky in a dreamy state.

In the past few years, Luo Yinfan had never heard of him coming out to commit crimes. Maybe he does have a good side. Luo Yinfan couldn't help but hesitate when he saw this. He acts with principles in his life. Even if it is a demon, unless it hurts people's lives, he will be more or less compassionate and give them a chance to change.

By fate, such a girl would very likely destroy the Six Realms. But this is also impossible.

So he resolutely called Chasing Waves, “Demon Zi.”

Luckily, he was independent and didn't make any sneak attacks. Chongzi was shocked and hurriedly parried. He managed to take the sword without speaking to it, and left with the wind.

Luo Yinfan was even more shocked. Even though this sword only uses 50% of the power, it is not easy to keep up with it. He had not stepped out of the Devil's Palace in the past three years, and he was definitely concentrating on his cultivation. If he really cultivates into a devil, no one can stop this disaster!

Luo Yinfan made a fateful decision, raised his immortal power, chanted an incantation with his fingers, and waved the sword-shaped dragon to rise in the air, circling, blocking his path.

Chongzi looked at the person in the sky and stood still.

The phoenix's eyes were still beautiful, but empty and lifeless.

Luo Yinfan's heart moved, and his tone involuntarily softened a little, "I thought you had never committed a crime in the past few years. If you are willing to follow me to the Kunlun Ice Prison to atone for your sins, I will save you from death."

Familiar sound! Familiar words! Chongzi secretly clenched his fists in his sleeves. He hated the tone of her voice, but he didn't want to hear it all the time. Even if he wanted to ignore some things, he couldn't ignore them.

Chongzi turned his face to the side, showing a bit of stubbornness, "You want me to give up my status and freedom, go to a place where the sun will never see the light of day, and be trapped in the chains of immortality forever? I am the Empress of the Demon Palace now, how sure do you think you are?" I will agree?"

In order to persuade him not to say anything else, Luo Yinfan reappeared with Chasing Waves, releasing countless sword energies and sharp blades.

Chongzi hurriedly dodged.

She is his teacher, and he has the grace of nurturing, two master and disciple, even if he abandons him, hates him, and wants to kill him, he always cares about him, loves him, how can he fight against him?

Luo Yinfan couldn't see his evasion, and was even more surprised.

The Venerable who explores the Six Realms, who can become enemies, Chongzi has doubts, the cult is coming faster, and finally there is no way to retreat. Forced to use the Demonic Sword to block, almost all of the internal organs were shifted by the shock of the immortal power.

He pointed at him with his sword, "Follow me to Kunlun."

Last chance? Chongzi said sadly, "If Master really wants to force me like this, it's better to kill me with a sword!"

...

The sudden deposition, the wind is light, and the grass is moving, gloomy glaring.

The power of the long sword suddenly disappeared, and Luo Yinfan stared at him blankly.

Nothing shocked him more than what he heard at this moment. What did he call him? Teacher? When was there such a person around him, he had no impression at all!

Her beautiful face in a black robe with purple eyes is indeed a bit familiar at first glance, especially those eyes.

Strangely, the more he looked at it, the more he wanted to remember it, but the less he remembered.

Ever since he was burned by his own flames, there were many disjointed things in his memory, and he always felt that something was missing, that they could no longer be linked together. He only vaguely knew it was related to a faint shadow, but he couldn't remember a shred of information about it.

Could the shadow be him? He remembers everyone, but only he is forgotten!

If that was true, then she was his only disciple!

Luo Yinfan was starting to be unsure.

Seeing her like this, Chongzi was speechless, not knowing what to say. He hated her so much, and wished he could end things by forgetting. Why did he have to mention it?

Chongzi regretted it when he heard a soft call, "Chong'er?"

Chongzi's whole body was shocked, and he looked up at him.

He called an unfamiliar name, which was very intimate. Luo Yinfan reacted and felt a little embarrassed. Looking at his expression again, he immediately understood – this really was his disciple! Her disciple was actually Empress Jiuyou… Chongji Demon Zi! No wonder the brothers and the others tried their best to hide it. Everyone in Xianmen knew that he was the only one who didn't know anything.

In fact, the reason is very simple. Nanhua automatically left her past because of her pride. Apart from taking his face into account, everyone in the Immortal Realm shunned this name. Only until now have they been able to hide it.

With the sword tip hanging down, Luo Yinfan almost vomited blood.

Even though he had long noticed that the relationship between the two was extremely close, he had never been able to imagine such an outcome. When did he accept such an evil being, how dare he betray his master and become a devil!

No wonder he had such eyes, no wonder he stepped back step by step and didn't dare to start with him. Because he still recognized him as his teacher. If he had a contrite heart, he didn't obediently kneel down and admit his guilt, and come back with him to plead guilty. Up to this point, he still dared to disobey his teacher!

Luo Yinfan was angry, and was about to scold him. Looking at the slightly flustered face, he couldn't scold her for some reason. In the end, he just sighed in his heart — ——Forget it, as his student, he has an unavoidable responsibility. Born with an evil spirit, and the consequences of continuing to stay in the Demon Palace were serious, so he had to first subdue it and bring it back.

He put away his sword and said firmly, "I know that I am a teacher. Just follow the teacher back to Nanhua to admit mistakes."

Chongzi was confused, "I won't go to Ice Prison..."

Luo Yinfan's heart softened. What kind of place the Ice Prison was, it was no wonder he was afraid. He was really just a child who made a mistake, “If you make a mistake, you will bear the consequences. How long can you stay in the Devil's Palace? This is not what you wanted, and you must not continue. Come here and teacher will bring you back with the teacher."

Chongzi finally regained his senses and shook his head, "They won't let me go."

“As long as you have a heart of repentance and are willing to enter the Ice Prison to atone for your sins, teacher will try his best to save your life as a teacher. In the future, you will be able to cultivate the Heart Mirror Technique and purify your demonic aura and you will be released. " 

After all, I don't know the reason why he is fascinated, so Luo Yinfan doesn't have the confidence to say this.

Chongzi blinked and suddenly asked softly, "Can I return to Zizhu Peak and follow Master in the future?"

She was his student, of course, she was welcome to follow him, so there was no need to ask. Luo Yinfan nodded calmly, "If you really change, of course."

Does he really remember? Remember who he is, remember this place, he really no longer hates him, and agreed to let him return to Zizhu Peak, so that he can accompany him again?

There was nothing left, so I wanted to believe in, possess, and finally grasp something .

Chongzi tried his best to tell himself to get up and not look back, but his heart didn't follow his orders. She wanted to believe him again and walked towards him subconsciously.

Luo Yinfan was even more shocked, and the suspicion in his heart became even greater.

In the past, he only thought that he was born with a demonic aura and hurt people, so he betrayed his teacher, but now that seems not to be the case. When he listened to it like this, he didn't look like he betrayed his sect master.

How could he be his teacher and let such a child fall into the devil?! Luo Yinfan looked at the small face, a trace of guilt appeared, but was quickly dispelled with reason.

If you make a mistake, you have to pay the price. If you really commit a heinous crime, I'm afraid I won't be able to forgive it. Today, he was too dangerous, and he would harm the Six Realms if he wasn't careful.

His disciple, no matter how he would handle it.

Step by step, getting closer and closer to him, Chongzi finally stood in front of him, his eyes full of excitement and anxiety. He wanted to call out to her, but he couldn't.

At this moment, something penetrated into the body, very thin, with a piercing coolness.

The soul seems to be bound by something, and the whole body is uncomfortable. The prodigy in the body resisted instinctively, but the more it resisted, the tighter it tightened, it nearly split his soul.

Severely ill, blood dripped from the corner of his mouth.

Chongzi was a little confused, reached out and touched it, looked at the bloodstained fingers, looked at him after confirming, and muttered, "Teacher?"

The person in front of him regained his majesty, and there was an indifference in his voice that he knew but also didn't recognize, "This is the Nanhua soul-locking silk, it can bind your soul. From now on, if you use magic to hurt others, you will hurt others first." yourself, and as much as you hurt others, that much you will hurt yourself too."

"Soul Locking Sutra! Chongzi staggered backwards, his face as white as paper, he lied to him! He actually lied to him like this! He actually lied to him here!

"If you don't believe me, why don't you just kill me?"

Luo Yinfan felt a little guilty for having to use this method to hurt him, but he quickly calmed down, "If you fall into the devil and betray your teacher, you will no longer be Chonghua's disciple. Do you think I can't handle you?"

No longer a Chonghua disciple, he was finally kicked out of his teacher's door. Chongzi didn't speak.

Luo Yinfan initially reprimanded him casually, but when he saw him like this, his tone softened again, “Given the status of teacher and disciple, you haven't committed any crimes in the past few years, so please spare your life for now and come back with me first.. ."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly stopped, with unconcealable shock in his eyes.

The demonic aura swelled up sharply, like a terrifying wave.

Magic power flowed through his body and collided outwards. Trying to break the soul lock silk, who knows that the lock soul cable not only continues, but becomes tighter and tighter, dark red blood, from the eyes, nose, corners of the mouth flowing down, and the smooth surface of the skin is also bleeding. He slowly fainted, and his whole body turned into a bloody person!

Almost frantically struggling, such determination, unwilling to compromise at the price of tearing the soul.

"You... , Luo Yinfan finally felt a little confused.

Something seemed wrong, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong. What he did was purely for the sake of the bigger picture. He was afraid that he would become a devil and harm the world, so he used a soul-locking silk to limit his magic power, and imposed several punishments and restrictions at the same time.

He is so stupid and paranoid!

The phoenix eyes that were dripping blood were filled with hatred that could shatter the heavens and shatter the earth.

For some reason, the heartache couldn't further increase.

No teacher would want to see their student die in front of him, even if he didn't remember anything, perhaps their teacher-student bond was deeper than he had imagined.

Something in the body woke up, just about to move, as if...

Luo Yinfan was even more shocked.

When was he full of lust?!

Everything came too quickly and unexpectedly, and there was no time to weigh it. Seeing that his body was almost crushed, and his soul was being torn apart by the soul lock, he didn't hesitate to endure it and no longer let him struggle. Maybe it was because of that intuition, the kind of intuition that made him so uneasy, if he didn't stop it, he would regret it.

The ruins automatically gathered together to form a complete Demon Shrine.

Thunder rumbled in the clear sky, the seas roared, the wind blew across the flat land, where the devil energy arrived, the plants and trees withered, and the birds and beasts all over the mountain rushed to flee.

Large swaths of blood-red thick clouds quickly gathered, filling the mountains and rivers, blocking the sunlight, covering half of the world, casting a dazzling red shadow, and the strange and majestic scene revealed endless sorrow and terrible meaning.

The sudden downpour, mixed with shrill lightning, was terrifying, and people hid in their homes and dared not come out.

On the Nanhua Tianji Peak, Xingxuan stood on the top of the mountain, his face serious, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Behind him, Min Yunzhong finally couldn't help but sigh, "What happened?"

Xingxuan smiled bitterly, "The devil has been born."

The answer is predictable. The sudden appearance of such a vision in the human world is definitely a huge change from the demon world. It's just that everyone is reluctant to face the truth.

Yu Du fell silent.

Xingxuan sighed, "I didn't expect it to come so quickly."

Min Yunzhong didn't show much despair, he raised his eyebrows and said, "This is something we can't avoid. There's no point in sighing, we must arrange countermeasures as soon as possible."

A few people were talking when suddenly a disciple came running, "Qi reports to Headmaster, the Qingmen gods of Shushan, Maoshan, Changsheng Palace and Kunlun are all here, and they want to see Headmaster and His Highness. They are drinking tea in the side hall."

"They naturally guessed such a big move." Min Yunzhong waved his hand to let the disciple down, turned around and saw Luo Yinfan beside him looking dazed, he couldn't help frowning and reminded, "Yinfan?"

Luo Yinfan came back to his senses, nodded lightly, and left without saying anything.

Min Yunzhong was shocked, "He is..."

"Could he remember?" Xingxuan was a little uneasy.

"What if he remembers it?" Min Yunzhong said with a sullen face, “If he really didn't have any evil thoughts, how could he forget about it?! He lost his sense of proportion in doing things on his own so we were forced to use this method. doesn't care about his identity, and he actually gave birth to that Evil Being… If this matter spreads out. See what kind of person he is?! The headmaster did this to save him, how dare he blame him?”

According to the temperament of the younger brother, it is difficult to say the consequences of being discovered by him. Yu Du smiled bitterly and stopped Min Yunzhong, "Forget it, this isn't the most important thing right now. The Sect Masters are all waiting in the hall. Let's leave as soon as possible to discuss important matters."

Min Yunzhong completely stopped talking, and the three of them rushed to the main peak.

Here, under Yuchen Peak, Wen Lingzhi stood above the long sword, holding the tri-colored sword spike in his hand, hesitating.

Calling him out now might not help, what should I do?

He was in a daze, and a female disciple rushed over with a sword, looked at him and said happily, "So the first Shishu is here, hurry back to the palace."

Wen Lingzhi quickly put away the sword spikes and said, "I heard that some sect leaders are here?"

The female disciple said, "That's right, there is a big situation in the demon world, and now Your Highness and the others are discussing in the hall. I'm afraid that if the Headmaster and His Highness have orders and Shishu isn't there, it won't be a mistake." , so I came to look for you."

“You sure are wise,” Wen Lingzhi nodded with a smile, thought for a moment and said, “I have something I want to ask of you.”

The female disciple hurriedly said, "Shishu, please do whatever you want."

"You go to Qinghua Palace on my behalf," Wen Lingzhi motioned for her to come over, gently ordered a few words, and handed her something, "Don't let Young Lady Zhuo pay attention, this matter must be done."
