After reconciliation with Jianzun

That night.

Ye Zhili changed into a more comfortable outfit, and sneaked towards Tao Zizhen's residence.

At the end of the day, even the busiest long street had its lights turned off, and the Xianmeng, which was radiant in daylight and looked like a heavenly palace, fell silent and fell asleep in the clear brilliance of the full moon.

Although there were patrols at twelve o'clock in the Xianmeng, Ye Zhili's journey from one inner disciple's residence to another inner disciple's residence was relatively smooth.

He was not called Lu Juchen during this trip, let alone Sheng Jian.

In the evening, Sheng Jian was sure that Lu Wanchen thought more of him than a friend. He recalled it carefully. Lu Wanchen was originally a bit frivolous, and he liked to take advantage of him, but if he really liked him, it seemed Not so.

But Sheng Jian is not an unreasonable person. Although Lu Juchen always likes to fight against him, Sheng Jian will not slander him just because of this.

It would be a bit abrupt to ask Lu Juchen rashly, and it is not easy for him to accept the other party's kindness without asking clearly, so he has to find an opportunity to test it out.

In the whole world, only the debt of love is hard to repay.

Isn't he and Sheng Jian entangled so far because of the unsightly love affair?

He shook his head, now thinking of Sheng Jian gave him a headache.

Even though Sheng Jian lowered his posture and wanted to stay, he still refused.

It's just that it's useless as always, and Sheng Jian doesn't intend to leave at all, so it's not an exaggeration to say that it's shameless.

God knows how much he misses the cold and invincible Sword Master Yuan Heng.

It's just that people have to have three points of face. He has refused so many times, and he doesn't believe how long Sheng Jian can last.

Just walking while thinking like this, after about half an hour, Ye Zhili arrived at Tao Zizhen's residence without any surprise or danger.

As a direct disciple of the lord of the Immortal League, Tao Zizhen's courtyard was about the same size as his. It seemed that Xia Xingchui treated him really well.

Without delay, he went directly to Tao Zizhen's study.

Tao Zizhen went to clean up the monsters in Chuanzhai eight days ago. What happened five days ago, the body was not transported back for burial until yesterday, so the things in the house have not been moved much.

The furnishings in the study are neat and orderly, and there is still a long-soaked medicinal fragrance in the air.

If Tao Zi really wanted to leave him something on purpose, he would definitely not put it in a too obvious place, but it would not be so that he could not find it.

He found the medicine house from the study, ran into Tao Zizhen's bedroom, and finally found a hidden compartment under the carved wooden bed.

really.

Tao Zi was really prepared.

He took a stick from the side to open the hidden compartment, and after a few breaths, seeing that there was no hidden weapon, he leaned over cautiously.

There are several letters and a scroll in the dark compartment.

Letters are a thing that needs to be read for a long time. Now he sneaks into Tao Zizhen's residence to find things by himself, and he is not serious enough to read them directly at the scene of the crime.

However, he could get a general idea of ​​the scroll at a glance. Out of curiosity, he unwrapped the red silk wrapped around the scroll.

This is a portrait.

On the painting, it was exactly what he looked like before.

Tonight, the bright moonlight shines into the room through the wide-open windows. The painting scroll has obviously been carefully framed, and it feels cool and slippery to the touch. Ye Zhili stares at the person in the painting expressionlessly. The face, however, became very different at this moment.

There is also a portrait of him in Shengjian, which shows him with smiling eyes, picking peach blossoms with his sword, warm and lingering.

Painting can show your heart, what kind of emotion is in your heart, what you paint is what it is.

But he can understand how Sheng Jian paints him.

In Tao Zizhen's painting, the sky is just right, he is standing half-length in the river, holding clear water in his hands as if about to splash out of the painting, carefree and natural.

If he was not familiar with Sheng Jian's brushwork, he would even think that this painting was also written by Sheng Jian.

When he saw the scroll, he was already mentally prepared to see himself on it, but he thought it would be a cold portrait of Zhang Bingbing, but unexpectedly it concealed a faint emotion, which made people even more chilling.

Ye Zhili calmed down, rewound the scroll, and put it into the storage bag along with the letter.

If there are any clues, it must be among these letters, but it's not early, he should go back.

He found the courtyard wall when he came in, kicked his feet, stretched his thin waist upwards, turned over and flashed out neatly, bowed and stood firmly on the bluestone bricks outside.

The alley was very quiet, only the sound of his light and quick footsteps under the shadow of the fence.

As soon as his back foot stepped into the bright range, as if he had been waiting for him for a long time, a figure followed him unhurriedly from the side.

"What a coincidence."

someone!

He stopped in his footsteps, his handsome eyebrows were pressed down slightly, his eyes were full of defense, and his hand quietly picked up the formula, ready to call out Liuxian at any time.

He turned around slowly, and the person who came was wearing a water-green coat that was much simpler than in the daytime, with one hand behind his back, smiling, and standing upright in front of him, with a rather elegant demeanor.

It's Xia Xingchui...

Ye Zhili's thoughts turned.

Why is Xia Xingchui here?Looks like you're still waiting for him on purpose?How much does Tao Zi really know about Xia Xingchui?Where did the demon's infiltration go?

In an instant, countless guesses flashed through his mind, but he didn't show anything on his face, and saluted respectfully.

"I have seen the ally."

Xia Xingchui gave an "um" inexplicably, and then said like a normal chat: "I just finished my business, and I missed Zizhen who passed away, so I came to have a look."

Ye Zhili echoed, "The leader of the alliance has a deep relationship with Senior Brother Tao as a teacher and apprentice."

Xia Xing smiled: "I heard that Sword Master Yuanheng had a Taoist companion when he was in Xuanjian Pavilion in the early years, and the two of them also have a deep friendship. The Taoist companion of Sword Master seems to be surnamed Ye, and they also have extremely high attainments in formations. "

Ye Zhili moved his fingertips slightly.

When he and Sheng Jian were together in the past, it was only because Sheng Jian kept a low profile, so he never took the initiative to mention it to outsiders, but if he wanted to, it is actually not difficult to find out.

As the leader of the Immortal League, Xia Xingchui must have privately recorded detailed information about the great powers in the world.

And he was too popular, and together with Sheng Jian all day long, Xia Xingchui would inevitably become suspicious.

But he didn't expect that Xia Xingchui could be so perceptive. It wasn't abrupt when he asked Tao Zi's real reason in the afternoon, even so, the other party was still aware of it.

Could it be that Xia Xingchui knew that Tao Zi had a problem?

But now is not the time to discuss this, the important thing is how to explain why he appeared here and his true identity.

He was thinking about how to answer when a familiar male voice came from the alley.

"Master Xia is quite clear about the family affairs of this deity."

Sheng Jian strolled out of the shadows, making no secret of his intention to protect him, and barely stopped when he came in front of him.

Xia Xingcui seemed not surprised, and smiled casually: "It's midnight, and Master Jian came out to enjoy the moon?"

Sheng Jian said lightly: "Master Xia is also in a good mood."

"This moonlight is so suitable for a loving couple. How can a lonely person like me enjoy it." Xia Xingshui glanced over him and Sheng Jian meaningfully, and then said, "I just miss mine apprentice."

Sheng Jian also glanced sideways at Ye Zhili, and then said: "Ye Zi was rescued by Xia League leader's disciple back then, and now returning to Xianmeng, he is also very worried."

Rao let Ye Zhili listen, these words are really reluctant.

Even if you miss it deeply, why don't you come to see it one day, and you have to wait until midnight to climb over the courtyard wall.

The reason why he appeared here was well understood by everyone present.

Xia Xingchui didn't study it carefully, but just looked at Sheng Jian: "Sword Master Yuan Heng's name moved all over the world, from the night sword, demon corpses piled up mountains and blood into a sea, the cultivation world can still survive under the huge and fierce offensive of the demon world, thanks to the sword Respect high righteousness.

"I don't know if Xia can still believe in Sword Master's high righteousness now."

Standing behind Sheng Jian, Ye Zhili saw the wind blowing through the alley gently lifting the ends of Sheng Jian's uncrowned black hair, and the moonlight shone on the gilded shoulder armor in front of him, reflecting dazzling bright colors.

He didn't know when there was a sense of tension in the air, and he took a tight breath, fearing that Sheng Jian would fight Xia Xingcui on the spot after he finished his answer.

Sheng Jian did not hesitate at all, his voice was deep and firm, and he guaranteed his reputation with half his life.

"Trustworthy."

Xia Xingchui got the answer he wanted, and his shoulders dropped imperceptibly, all the temptations and precautions disappeared, as if it was just an illusion.

Shi Shiran, the leader of the Immortal League who claimed to miss his beloved disciple, waved his hand, turned around and left without even looking at the place where Tao Zizhen lived before his death.

"Since that's the case, the moon in Xianmeng will be bright for the two of you tonight, so Xia won't be too annoying, so I will leave."

After confirming that Xia Xingchui had gone far enough, Sheng Jian turned to face Ye Zhili and asked, "Are you okay?"

Ye Zhili shook his head to indicate that he was fine: "Why are you here?"

Sheng Jian replied truthfully: "Tao Zizhen died deliberately and conspicuously, as if it was specially made for others to see. I guess you will come to check on Tao Zizhen late at night, afraid that you will encounter any danger."

Facing Xia Xingchui, he lost all his aura like mountains and seas, and Sheng Jian was a little nervous when he spoke.

Even if he doesn't show up, Ye Zhili has not done anything wrong, and he has an amazing talent, plus he is worried about the relationship between the two, Xia Xingchui may not do anything to Ye Zhili.

But he just couldn't see Xia Xingcui's aggressive look at Ye Zhili, and couldn't see Ye Zhili being wronged in the slightest.

Ye Zhili didn't think about it so much, he just sighed helplessly: "You have tied your reputation to me, if I do something serious in the future, Xia Xingchui will definitely take you to death .”

Seeing that Ye Zhili didn't mean to be unhappy, Sheng Jian felt relieved: "It's okay, just let him come."

Ye Zhili said with a smile: "If Xia Xingchui seeks trouble with you, he is definitely not alone. He must bring the Immortal League behind him, and maybe the entire cultivation world."

Sheng Jian's expression remained unchanged: "Even if it is the entire Three Realms, it doesn't matter."

This oath-like promise was too heavy, Ye Zhixin's head trembled when he heard it, he didn't dare to look at Shengjian anymore, he only looked up at the clear moon, and sighed secretly after a long while.

He wanted Sheng Jian to leave quickly, but was helped by Sheng Jian again.

If this continues, the two of them don't know how long they will be entangled.
