As he spoke, he took another knee step forward, and the point of the sword touched his eyebrows. The sword was sharp, but he seemed unaware. He just looked at Changyuan and asked repeatedly: "Because I am a demon, so Master Want to kill me?"

Chang Yuan's hand holding the sword trembled involuntarily, he gritted his teeth and said: "You are not a devil, you just did such... such a deceitful thing, I can't forgive you."

Zhao Yan's face was sad: "But didn't Master say that when you like someone, you can't help but want to be with him. I...I just like Master, is it wrong?"

Hearing this sentence, Changyuan seemed to be bitten by a poisonous snake, and immediately shouted: "Nonsense, you and I are master and apprentice, you don't care about the immortal rules of Lingtai, you also need to care about ethics, how dare you have such delusional thoughts about your teacher! "

Zhao Yan looked straight at him: "I don't know any fairy rules, and I don't want to care about ethics. I only know Master in my heart. If Master can't tolerate me, he will kill me!" He said, his chin raised , actually handed his neck to the edge of the sword.

Chang Yuan was startled, before he could take back the long sword, a bloodstain fell on Zhao Yan's neck in an instant with the edge of the sword in his hand, and that little sword seemed to be stimulated by the devilish energy in his blood, and suddenly its light became brighter, and the sword sounded again Voice.But Chang Yuan couldn't hear it, he just stared blankly at the blood on the apprentice's neck, his hands trembled slightly, as if he couldn't even hold the sword.

Zhaoyan noticed his trembling, his eyes lit up, and he didn't care about the Shaowei sword on his neck, and was about to approach him again.Seeing his blood meandering down from the blade, Chang Yuan couldn't hold on anymore, he withdrew his hand and threw the Shaowei sword heavily on the ground.At the same time, Zhao Yan rushed forward, hugged him, and said happily: "Master is reluctant to kill me, is he?"

Changyuan glanced at him, then looked at the wound on his neck, saw the blood beads continuously gushing out from his neck, dripping down on his clothes, feeling pity and bewilderment at the same time, his heart was in a mess, I don't know what to do.After a long time, he finally lowered his head and said, "Yes, I can't kill you."

After Zhaoyan heard this sentence, he became more and more happy, buried his face in his chest, and said again: "I know that Master cares about me in his heart, no matter what I am, Master will never kill me."

Changyuan remained silent for a long time, then grabbed his shoulders suddenly, pushed him away a little, and said coldly: "I won't kill you, but I can't spare you either. I'm going to punish you to go to the Xueding Karst Cave to confine you and think about your mistakes. Do you have something to say?"

Zhao Yan was taken aback for a moment, he knew that Xueding Karst Cave was located in a remote place in Buzhou Mountains, away from the 72nd Hall, it was on a lonely peak isolated from the world.The ice and snow do not melt there all year round, and it is extremely cold. Only Lingtai disciples who have committed great crimes will be sent here to contemplate their mistakes.He was not afraid of that lonely place, he just didn't want to leave Changyuan's side, but if he refused to accept the punishment, Changyuan would be annoyed again, so he lowered his head and asked, "Master punished me to go to Xueding Karst Cave to reflect on my past mistakes." , I will go, but I do not know how long?"

But Changyuan refused to answer his question, looked at the top of his head and asked lowly: "Zhaoyan, I only ask you, are you willing to listen to the teacher's words?"

Zhao Yan hurriedly raised his face, looked into his eyes with sincerity and said, "Of course I listen to what Master says."

Changyuan's eyes were deep, he looked at him very complicatedly and said: "Then you promise me that you will stay obediently in the cave on the top of the snow, always silently recite the scriptures of Taoism that I have taught you on weekdays, and never transform into a demon body. Wait until..." When he said this, his eyes flickered for a moment, and he couldn't help stroking his apprentice's hair. He rubbed a strand of fiery red hair between his fingers for a long time, and then said, "When the time is right, I will be a master. to pick you up."

Zhaoyan saw that his brows were full of disappointment, as if he was worried about himself, and suddenly there was sadness in his heart, he grabbed Chang Yuan's lapel and refused to let go.

Changyuan patted his head again, and asked again: "Should you accept me?"

Zhaoyan was extremely greedy for the warmth of him touching the top of his head, and was even more reluctant to part with him. After hesitating for a long time, he said in a low voice: "I promise Master."

After he finished saying this, he saw Changyuan straighten up suddenly, flicked his sleeves outside the hall, the door of this hall opened wide, but saw two teams of disciples rushing in at the same time, they all said to Changyuan Jishou: "Little Master Uncle."

Changyuan didn't greet them, but turned his back silently: "Take him away."

Zhao Yan originally thought that he would send him to Xueding Karst Cave, but who knew that he was handed over to the disciple in charge, he was startled suddenly, and couldn't help shouting to him: "Master!"

Changyuan turned his back to him, and shook his head faintly: "Zhaoyan, I hope you will remember what you promised to be your teacher."

Zhao Yan felt sour in his heart: "I remember, but...but why doesn't Master refuse to look back at me?"

When he was questioning, a group of discipline master disciples had already surrounded him and trapped him with a magic circle, and they were about to take him away in a blink of an eye.But he didn't care about these people, he just looked at Chang Yuan's back and begged: "Master, look back at me."

Changyuan didn't seem to hear, just stood there, never turned around.

When Zhaoyan's shouts and the chaotic footsteps of Zhang Gui's disciples gradually faded away, he slowly slid down to the ground, looking at the bright red glaring blood beads on the front of his clothes, he couldn't help but reach out and stroke them.He still remembered the feeling of attachment with the red-haired head buried in his chest, but at the moment it seemed to be empty.He hadn't felt this way for a long, long time, as if he had returned to the night when the war started many years ago, he stood alone under the moonlit night, lonely and small.

In the next hundred years, time flies like running water.

In a flash, it was the third day of March again, and it was the day when the Queen Mother of the West held a peach feast. Because Changyuan hadn't gone to the banquet for a long time, his fairy invitation was sent to the Qionghua Palace's case like a decoration.As usual, the post said Beichen Jiuyao Emperor sincerely. Seeing that this irresistible title had followed him for hundreds of years, he couldn't help but smiled wryly, and wrote a reply letter. He was just about to find a disciple to send to Queen Mother of the West. However, as soon as he walked out of the courtyard in front of the hall, he saw a figure in light blue clothes.

At first he thought it was Yun Shen who had slipped back from West Kunlun again, but when the other party turned around, he realized that it was Yun Shang.

"Little uncle." Yun Shang bowed to him with his sleeves drooping slightly.

Now he has the outline of a youth, and even the immortals in the heavens call him "Kunlun Jade Bi".Changyuan is not as familiar with him as he is with Yuncan, at this moment he doesn't know why he came here, but he was a little surprised, he pointed at the hall with a flick of his sleeve and said: "If you have something to say, go into the hall and talk about it."

Yun Shang nodded obediently, followed him into the Qionghua Palace, waited for Chang Yuan to take his seat, then he sat down respectfully at the lower end, and asked in a low voice: "How is little uncle?"

Changyuan nodded lightly: "Everything is fine." After a pause, he asked again, "You came here to find me, what's the matter?"

Yun Shang hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice, "I just want to visit my little uncle."

Changyuan knew that he was different from his elder brother in temperament, so the words must not be teasing him, but he thought it was from the bottom of his heart, but he didn't know what he had to look at, so he couldn't help being stunned for a while.

Yun Shang saw that he had doubts on his face, and sighed softly again: "I see that my little uncle has changed a lot from before."

Changyuan couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "We haven't seen each other for a hundred years, so what has changed in me?"

"Little Martial Uncle used to smile even when he taught others. He looked easy-going and close. Both my brother and I felt that Junior Martial Uncle was a very gentle and gentle person. But since Junior Brother Zhaoyan was grounded in the After Xueding Karst Cave, the little uncle seemed to be a different person, and we rarely saw each other all year round, and rarely smiled anymore."

Changyuan was stunned when he heard this, and after a while he forced a smile and said: "What's the matter, I'm just idle and like wandering around in the heavens, so I don't often see you face to face."

Yun Shang looked at the faint smile on his lips, and felt emotional in his heart, but he didn't say any more, he just said in a low voice: "A while ago, I was ordered by my master to go to Xueding Karst Cave to visit all the guardian disciples. Do you know anything about Junior Brother Zhaoyan's recent situation?"

Hearing this sentence, Chang Yuan couldn't help raising his face immediately, but he didn't want to show an overly eager expression, so he paused for a while before asking: "How is he...?"

"Junior Brother Zhaoyan was imprisoned on the highest floor of the Xueding Karst Cave. Every day, the sun, moon and stars pass by his head. The cave is glare and cold, and it is not a comfortable place."

Changyuan knew how severe the cold was at the highest level of Xueding Karst Cave. Thinking of his apprentice's life of fire, but being trapped in this extremely cold place, his heart was stabbed with pain, but his face was expressionless, and he only said "hmm "A cry.

"He's in good spirits, but he doesn't want to talk to others. I heard from the supervisor that he always sits in a corner silently, as if thinking about something." When Yun Shang said this, he glanced at Chang Yuan again, "I When I went, he took the initiative to talk to me, and he asked my junior uncle if he forgave him, and when he would let him go back."

Changyuan said: "How did you answer him?"

Yun Shang lowered his head: "I said that the little uncle also misses him very much, and he will naturally let him go when the time comes." After finishing speaking, he raised his eyes again and looked at Chang Yuan, "But Zhao Yan smiled, saying that he knew, Little Martial Uncle won't see him again."

Hearing this sentence, Changyuan's chest trembled, and he asked in a trembling voice, "He really said that?"

Yun Shang nodded, and said again: "I persuaded him for a long time, but he didn't seem to listen to a word, and in the end he yelled at me angrily, saying that he had been waiting in this prison for a hundred years, and no one would I understand how hard it is for him for a hundred years." He sighed, "I think Junior Brother Zhaoyan has a deep demonic nature, which seems hard to get rid of for a while, is it possible... Is it really necessary to lock him up for thousands of years?"

Changyuan's heart sank when he heard this, his eyes were dark, he was actually full of worry, he forgot to answer for a moment, and after a while he said in a low voice: "Thank you for telling me this."

Yun Shang saw that he seemed to be full of thoughts, so he didn't want to delay too much, he just bowed politely, and then left.

After Yun Shang left, Chang Yuan sat alone in the hall silently for a long time, until the day and night passed, he finally couldn't bear it anymore, got up and walked out of Qionghua Hall, and drove straight to the Xueding cave.

Xueding Karst Cave is located on a lone peak, with 81 caves from bottom to top, and a dozen guard disciples.Changyuan didn't want people to know that he came to visit his apprentice, so he landed on the top of the cave, thinking to meet Zhaoyan privately, and leave as soon as he sees him safe and sound.Unexpectedly, when he reached the top of the cave, he saw that the entire cave seemed to be opened by some giant monster, and the surrounding demon energy was soaring, and the fence made of fairy crystal cold iron at the entrance of the cave was torn in half. There was no one there, so there was no sign of Zhaoyan.

His shock was no small matter, and he hurriedly searched all the way down, only to find that there was no one in the 81 holes.It wasn't until he entered the bottom of the cave that he found a dozen or so disciples lying in a pool of blood. He hastily formed a golden mask to cover the disciples, but he was unable to recover.When he was in a state of anxiety, he heard a moan from a disciple in the corner, and he was actually rescued.

Although the disciple woke up slowly, he was very weak, and he called out to him in a low voice: "Changyuan Xingjun." Then he struggled and said, "Just now a group of demons broke into this place, and they started killing and rescued him. I saw the red-haired monster on the top of the cave, quickly... quickly send a message to Taoist Zichen."

Chang Yuan didn't care to respond, but asked: "Can you see what those demons look like, and where did they escape from?"

The disciple closed his eyes forcefully: "I only recognize the leader. It is the disciple Hao Yuan who turned down the Lingtai earlier. He knows the structure of the Lingtai like the palm of his hand, and he has brought the group of demons back to the lower realm."

As if being struck by lightning, Changyuan was afraid that he would faint again, so he pressed his hand on his chest, continuously losing the immortal power, and at the same time asked anxiously: "Why did that evil barrier come here, and how did he kidnap Zhaoyan?"

The blood was still gushing from the corner of the disciple's mouth, but he sneered coldly: "Zhaoyan, it's the name of that red-haired monster, right? He was kidnapped, and he clearly swaggered and walked with that group of monsters."

Changyuan was in a turmoil, and immediately said: "Is this true? Could it be that you misunderstood or misunderstood in the confusion, Zhaoyan... how could Zhaoyan be willing to go with them?"

The disciple seemed to be extremely angry, he coughed and forced himself to say: "I saw it with my own eyes, how could it be false! Among them was a powerful demon king who split open the roof of the cave with a huge axe and released the red-haired monster .My senior brothers and I all stepped forward to stop them, but were killed by those demons one after another. If it wasn't for...if it wasn't for my senior brother to block the sword for me, I would have already...cough cough..."

He coughed more and more violently when he spoke, Changyuan heard something wrong, and then he saw black blood from the wounds on his arms and legs, which seemed to be a sign of severe poisoning.He wanted to prevent the other party from speaking, so as not to exhaust his immortal energy, but the disciple held onto his hand tightly: "Quick... Hurry up to the Lingtai to pass the message, the demon world will come back, I'm afraid there will be a catastrophe." Then, there was no more sound.
