After Cultivating With the Enemy

At Haishi, the evening class is over.

The crowd was bustling as they stepped out of the classroom, Qi Xuan was walking among the crowd, and was whispering something to the disciple beside him while tilting his head.Suddenly, a light and shadow crossed in front of the crowd, heading straight for Qi Xuan's direction.

Qi Xuan only felt a flash of plain white clothes in front of his eyes, and then he was pushed with a strong force, and his back slammed into the ancient pine beside him.He barely raised his head, and a thin and slender hand instantly grabbed his throat: "Where are my things?"

It's Ji Chaoyun.

When Ji Zhaoyun treats others, he always looks cold and indifferent, but he never makes things difficult for others.But now, his dark and bright eyes were shining with a strange faint light, and a little blood streaked up his eyes, which looked a little scary.

The hand strangling Qi Xuan's throat tightened forcefully, Ji Chaoyun stared at him, and repeated in a cold voice: "Where are my things?"

"I...I..." Qi Xuan had difficulty breathing, and couldn't say a word under the almost suffocating force.

They were outside the classroom at this time, and people were coming and going on the pine forest path, and they were all stunned by the accident.

Ji Zhaoyun didn't realize it, and the voice that was close to Qi Xuan's ear was bitingly cold: "You are the only one who touched me today, did you steal my purse?"

"No, I..."

Qi Xuan's face was flushed red, and he shook his head vigorously, a cold light flashed in Ji Zhaoyun's eyes, and his fingers slowly tightened.

Everyone woke up like a dream.

"Ji, Ji Chaoyun! What are you doing?"

"What's going on, how did you start fighting?"

"If you have something to say, let him go!"

More and more people gathered around, trying to separate the two.

Ji Zhaoyun glanced around quickly from the corner of his eye, let go of the hand that restrained Qi Xuan's neck, and grabbed his shoulder instead, the two bodies soared into the air, and disappeared into the night as a white awn.

In the middle of the night, Hongmeng Mountain was shrouded in clouds and mist, and snow began to fall in the mountains at some unknown time.A ray of light like a swimming dragon descended from the sky, and Ji Chaoyun showed his figure from the ray, and with a random push, he pushed the boy in his hand onto the floating stone bridge.

He leaned down and grabbed Qi Xuan's collar.

The movements of the two brought up the frost on the surface of the stone bridge, and they fell into the bottomless canyon one after another.

Ji Zhaoyun said in a low voice: "There is an abyss below here. Even if the fairy body falls, the muscles and bones will be broken at the slightest, and the bones will be crushed at the worst. Do you think I dare to push you down?"

Qi Xuan's face was as pale as paper, he grasped Ji Chaoyun's wrist weakly, and said tremblingly: "I, I don't know what you are talking about, I really don't know..."

A mocking smile appeared in Ji Zhaoyun's eyes, without hesitation, he raised his hand and pushed Qi Xuan off the stone bridge!

Qi Xuan's body fell rapidly, unable to make any sound under extreme fear.

But at this moment, a rope quickly sprang out from Ji Chaoyun's sleeve, wrapping around Qi Xuan's ankle like a snake.The other end of the rope was tied to an ancient pine branch at one end of the floating stone bridge. Qi Xuan's rapidly falling body finally stopped, and he was hung upside down between the cliffs.

He tried his best to look up, and Ji Chaoyun was standing on the top of the cliff, covered with heavy snow and thick ink-like night sky behind him, his face seemed to be frosted, and he looked down at him indifferently.

Afterwards, he raised his hand, and a silvery-white light transformed into a sword from his palm, and the sharp edge of the sword reflected the sharp cold light and rested on the rope.

Even one more movement would cut the rope.

Ji Chaoyun: "Don't you know now?"

"No, no...don't!" Qi Xuan said anxiously, "I said, I'll tell you everything!...It was Senior Brother Xu, it was Senior Brother Xu who asked me to steal your purse, and he asked me to do it!"

Ji Zhaoyun paused: "Where are my things now?"

"……I have no idea."

Ji Zhaoyun narrowed his eyes dangerously, and Qi Xuan pleaded: "Brother Xu really didn't tell me where the things are, I just stole them for him. But! But today, Kaiyang Xianjun sent him out, and he left with a purse Yes. He said, he said..."

"what did he say?"

Qi Xuan: "He said he would throw that thing into the lower realm, so that you can never get it back, and teach you a lesson..."

Nether...

Ji Zhaoyun's lips moved almost imperceptibly, as if he couldn't believe it, and then, a surge of anger replaced sadness.

That was the only thing he had left of him.

Ji Zhaoyun's hand holding the sword tightened forcefully, and it trembled uncontrollably upon closer inspection.Suddenly there was a surge of blood in his heart without warning, he staggered a step, and barely stabilized his figure.

When he looked up again, the ink in his eyes had completely faded away.

There was a strong wind on the cliff, and Ji Chaoyun stood on the top of the cliff, his temperament completely changed.

After cultivating into an immortal body, there will always be a faint layer of immortal energy lingering around him.But at this time, the fairy aura on Ji Chaoyun's body quickly faded, replaced by another more sinister aura.

His black hair turned silver-white at a speed visible to the naked eye, a pair of dragon horns climbed up to his forehead, and those vertical pupils as clear as glass emerged, revealing a cold demonic light in the wind and snow.

Qi Xuan watched this change in astonishment, and was so frightened that his words of begging for mercy were choked in his throat.

"Qi Xuan."

Ji Chaoyun looked down at the person hanging upside down on the cliff, his eyes were full of warmth: "I don't think I'm sorry for you."

Qi Xuan: "Chao, Chaoyun! You spared me this time, Senior Brother Xu threatened me with an assessment, and I have nowhere to go! Please forgive me, please..."

"You are desperate, and you are going to cut off the way of others? Why?"

"I--"

Qi Xuan's voice stopped abruptly. At that moment, he clearly read the cold killing intent from those semi-demonized vertical pupils, as if a basin of cold water was poured on his head, making his whole body icy cold.

In the next second, Ji Chaoyun swung his sword and slashed at the rope!

At this moment, a ray of golden light pierced the night, swept across the sky, and tightly strangled Ji Chaoyun's sword.

Ji Zhaoyun raised his head and met a pair of familiar eyes.

Feng Qi stood in front of Ji Chaoyun with his whip, seeing his appearance at this time, he was slightly taken aback: "Why are you..."

"Go away!" Ji Chaoyun yelled in a low voice, pulled out his sword with his backhand, and swiped at him with the condensed demon power in his palm.

The cultivation base of Ji Chaoyun in the demon body is much higher than before, Feng Qi didn't expect him to be so cruel, he was forced to take a few steps back immediately, and shouted: "Ji Chaoyun! Calm down, you really want to be in Hongmeng Academy Killing? Who do you think you are now, and what is the difference between you and the evil spirits who act recklessly in the world?!"

"Yaoxie..." Ji Zhaoyun raised his head, with a sad self-deprecating look in his gleaming eyes, "Aren't I originally a Yaoxie?"

"you……"

Feng Qi muttered, and before he could speak, Ji Chaoyun swung his sword again and stabbed at him.

Feng Qi sighed imperceptibly.

He turned sideways to avoid Ji Chaoyun's attack, and while his body was gliding across the sword, he lightly touched the back of Ji Chaoyun's neck with his fingertips.The latter's movements suddenly stopped, and the monster light condensed on the sword dissipated instantly.

Ji Zhaoyun tilted his head to look at Feng Qi, his eyes regained his clarity with a bit of bewilderment: "Why do you..."

Before he could finish his words, his feet suddenly softened, and he was about to fall.

Feng Qi's physical instincts were quicker than his brain's. He hugged the person in front of him tightly, but the moment he met him, he felt an absurd sense of familiarity from the bottom of his heart.

It was as if...he had hugged someone like this before.

But that feeling was only fleeting, Feng Qi leaned over and embraced the thin and cold body in his arms, supported the back of his head with one hand and pressed it into his shoulder socket.

They maintained this posture in the heavy snow, and after a while, feeling that the latter's shortness of breath finally gradually calmed down, Feng Qi raised his hand and gently stroked Ji Zhaoyun's long silver hair.

"It's okay, let's sleep for a while."

After his words fell, the long sword rolled down to the ground with a soft sound, Ji Zhaoyun's tense body finally completely collapsed, and his consciousness sank into the darkness.

Seeing that the person in his arms was finally soothed, Feng Qi raised his eyes and swept the rope on the edge of the cliff, a puff of green smoke lifted the person hanging upside down on the cliff, and landed steadily in front of them.

Qi Xuan's feet softened, and he fell to his knees with a plop.

Feng Qi maintained the posture of embracing Ji Chaoyun with one hand, and looked at him coldly: "Are you going to explain it yourself, or should I put you in front of the immortal?"

When Ji Zhaoyun woke up again, he didn't know how much time had passed.

The sharp tingling sensation in his head made him moan unbearably. Ji Zhaoyun opened his eyes, but in front of him was a familiar face that had been magnified many times.

"!" Ji Zhaoyun regained consciousness in an instant, broke free from the opponent's embrace, turned over, and subconsciously searched for his own sword, but found nothing: "What are you doing?!"

His series of movements were too fast for people to deal with, Feng Qi raised his hands, and said helplessly: "Calm down, I don't want to take advantage of you."

Ji Chaoyun didn't trust him: "Where is this?"

He wasn't anywhere he knew.

The sound of dripping water is endless, and as far as the eyes can see are the jagged stone walls glowing with faint white light, extending to the top.The two are surrounded by water pools on all sides, surrounding the open space where they are.

— This is a cave.

"This cave is called Jingxin Cave, and this pool is called Siguo Pool. As for this place..." His Royal Highness Feng Er sat cross-legged on the ground, smiling nonchalantly, "All disciples call it, prison."

"Prison? How could I—"

Feng Qi ignored him, and said to himself: "You and I have disliked each other for a long time, and finally couldn't help but make an appointment to fight at Hongmeng Mountain. You caught Qi Xuan to testify to us, but in the end, I didn't survive two tricks. I was knocked out and beaten to the original shape. Tianshu Xianjun was furious, let us come here to calm down."

Ji Zhaoyun looked at him silently.

The demon body he showed before has not faded away, and his long silver hair hangs loose behind him, and his glazed eyes look colder than before: "Why help me?"

Feng Qi was puzzled and said, "What did I do for you? Everyone saw you catching Qi Xuan during class, isn't that the truth?"

Ji Zhaoyun withdrew his gaze: "I do things by myself, and I don't need to drag others down. I'll go find the immortal..."

"Ji Chaoyun." Feng Qi called to him, his voice still sluggish, "Do you know how to deal with reckless killing of a classmate according to the school's rules?"

"...Abolish the immortal root and expel it from the academy."

Ji Zhaoyun's eyes moved slightly, and the atmosphere in the cave suddenly became stagnant.

After a long while, Feng Qi smiled lightly, breaking the silence: "Okay, anyway, I have explained clearly to Tianshu, you and I stay here obediently. We can go out at dawn tomorrow."

Ji Chaoyun: "...I can't wait for tomorrow."

He lowered his head, and tightened his hand hanging by his side: "Qi Xuan stole something from me, something... that is very important to me, and I have to find it back. Thank you for your help this time, wait If I find my things, I will report everything to the Immortal Venerable and return your innocence."

After he finished speaking, he was about to leave, but Feng Qi suddenly said, "Do you know where to find it?"

Ji Chaoyun paused.

Feng Qi looked at his back, and said slowly: "Qi Xuan only said that Xu Zixing threw that thing into the lower realm, but he didn't know where it was. You are more familiar with the lower realm than I am. It’s different from looking for a needle in a haystack, where do you find it?”

Ji Chaoyun lowered his head and did not answer.

The other party hadn't moved for a long time, Feng Qi raised his eyes and looked over, Ji Chaoyun was standing not far away with his back to him, his shoulders trembling silently uncontrollably.

"Hey, you're not crying, are you?" His Royal Highness Feng Er was never afraid of anything, but he really couldn't handle this kind of thing, so he walked up to Ji Chaoyun in two or three steps, trying to raise his head.

Ji Chaoyun tilted his head, avoiding his hand: "Stay away from me."

His voice was low and hoarse, his eyes were red, and there was water mist in his glass-like eyes, but he resisted not to let it fall.

Feng Qi's throat slipped silently, for some reason, he felt that this scene was more terrible than Ji Chaoyun crying in front of him.

Feng Qi coughed lightly, and said slowly: "I won't tease you anymore. I have asked someone just now, and Xu Zixing did leave the academy with your things today. But according to reliable sources, someone saw him go to the Unknown Sea. "

"...The Nameless Sea?" Ji Chaoyun asked, "Where is that place?"

Feng Qi: "The Wuming Sea penetrates the four realms of immortals, demons, gods and demons, and it is a place outside the realm. As time goes on, many illegal traders are attracted to live in groups, and they make a living by reselling all kinds of rare treasures in the four realms. Therefore, many people call it For, Haishi."

"He sold my purse?"

"That's right." Feng Qi nodded, "Anyway, it's good to know the whereabouts of the things now, and stay at ease. When the restraint is lifted tomorrow, I will find a way to take you out of the academy and find it back."

Ji Chaoyun lowered his head and did not answer.

Feng Qi thought that he was still worried, and continued to persuade: "Don't worry, there is nothing in the sky and on the earth that I can't get back. As for those two idiots, let's deal with it after we get the things back. Hey, Are you listening to me? Ji Chaoyun? Little crying bag? "

"Shut up." Ji Zhaoyun yelled hoarsely, and after a moment of silence, he asked in a low voice, "You...why did you help me?"

Feng Qi looked down at the young man who was close at hand, and suddenly felt an inexplicable sourness and tenderness in his heart.

Ji Zhaoyun is stubborn and stubborn, like a hedgehog who never let down his vigilance, hiding behind the crowd and watching everyone, unwilling to let anyone get close.But at this moment, with all the thorns put away, he looked so vulnerable and helpless, one could only wish to take him back to the nest, so that he could be circled up to protect him.

But Feng Qi felt that what was revealed in front of him at this time was the real appearance of this person.

Feng Qi stared at him for a long while, then turned his gaze abruptly: "You are my person who ascends the Yun Tower now, and you are my follower, shouldn't I help you?"

"When do I..."

"Okay, His Highness is willing, what are you talking about." Feng Qi interrupted him impatiently, and said, "I'm going to rest now, don't make any more noise, if you make any movement, I'll throw you into the water .”

Ji Zhaoyun originally wanted to say something more, but Feng Qi had turned over and lay down, as if he didn't want to talk to him anymore.He had no choice but to say "Oh", and resentfully walked to the rock beside him, and sat down with his back to him.

Silence was restored in the cave, only the sound of water dripping echoed in the silence.

After a while, Ji Chaoyun said softly: "Thank you."

He didn't expect to get an answer, but after a while, Feng Qi's voice suddenly came from behind: "You Dragon Clan, thank you only verbally?"

Ji Chaoyun turned his head, Feng Qi walked towards him, and sat down beside him very naturally.

"...Aren't you asleep?"

Feng Qi rubbed his shoulders and neck uncomfortably, and spat: "This wretched place is damp and damp, why don't you sleep on it."

"..."

Feng Qi squinted at him: "Did you laugh at me just now?"

"No."

"You're just laughing at me." Feng Qi said, "Repay kindness with revenge, are you dragons so heartless?"

Ji Zhaoyun suppressed a smile: "Your Highness does not need to worry about whether the Dragon Clan has a conscience, but the Dragon Clan has never been so...squeamish as Your Highness."

"..." In the sky and on the earth, no one dared to say that His Royal Highness Feng Er is squeamish.Feng Qi was speechless for a long time, but he couldn't find anything to refute, so he said angrily, "You really hate talking."

"Each each other."

The two sat side by side without speaking.After a while, Ji Chaoyun suddenly said: "When this matter is over, I will thank you very much. What kind of gift do you want?"

Feng Qi turned his head to look at him.

Ji Zhaoyun hadn't recovered from the half-demon form yet, with silver hair hanging down his back, so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off it.

A pair of dragon horns stood quietly in front of the forehead, with a soft luster under the reflection of the water waves.

Feng Qi just subconsciously replied, originally he didn't want any thank you gift.But at this time, his eyes fell on the pair of dragon horns, and he felt itchy in his heart and hands, which was quite unbearable.

He subconsciously blurted out: "Let me touch the dragon horn."

The author has something to say:

Yun Yun: ...No, get lost.
