Beautiful apprentice dressed as a demon

Li Wenzhao had only been back for a while, and wanted to go back to Yunge to rest, but before his feet crossed the threshold, a subordinate stepped forward to report.

"My lord, you are finally back." The subordinates hurried to catch up, and before they had time to salute, they saw Li Wenzhao glanced at him slightly from the side. The coldness in his eyes was so severe that the subordinates were startled, and cold sweat rolled down their backs. He whispered and dared not speak.

Li Wenzhao frowned slightly, entered the pavilion, sat on the grand master's chair, first ordered the maid to get some tea, and then said: "What's the matter."

The subordinate was so frightened by his earlier look that he did not dare to breathe, saluted and replied: "Reporting to the lord, this subordinate is from the Seventh Elder Peak, and the Seventh Elder has never been here since the night ten days ago. I met a lot of people, but I have never met the Seventh Elder, I thought that the elder was ordered to go out, but in the end, just last night... someone sent the Seventh Elder's head to the peak last night."

When the subordinate said this, he couldn't continue. He knelt on the ground, lowered his head, and could only see Li Wenzhao's leather boots from his panning vision.

Li Wenzhao crossed his legs, was silent for a while, and asked, "Who brought it up?"

"No, I don't know..." The subordinate was silent.

The maid quickly brought up the hot tea, but Li Wenzhao remained silent. His eyes slid past his subordinate and looked elsewhere. Hot tea was poured into the teacup and handed to him.

Seeing that he was silent, the subordinate couldn't help but look up, the room was too quiet, and he didn't dare to breathe.

Li Wenzhao noticed it: "Go down." He said to the maid beside him.

"Yes." The maid retreated in response, and when she stepped out of the threshold, she closed the door.

"Does anyone else know?" Li Wenzhao used the porcelain lid to remove the floating tea leaves, and took a sip of the tea.

The subordinate understood what he meant, and quickly replied: "The subordinate has already ordered you to go down. Before you come back, no one is allowed to disclose this matter. Now, except our peak, no one knows about this matter."

Li Wenzhao glanced away, and stopped fiddled with the tea leaves, but waited for him to finish.

"Honorable Lord, the Seventh Elder went back to the peak ten days ago, and then went to Taohuayan that night, saying that he had something to ask the Ninth Elder, and he never came back since then. His subordinates went to Taohuayan to ask, and they said that Jiu The elder has not returned to the peak since then, there are killing arrays around Jiuyi Mountain, if it is not for people from Jiuyi Mountain, it is impossible to go up the mountain easily, and you can retreat completely."

Having said that, the meaning is clear, he feels that Xie Xiao did all of this, there is no doubt about it.Li Wenzhao put down the teacup, thought calmly, with Xie Xiao Jindan early stage ability, to kill an elder in the Nascent Soul Stage without leaving any traces, it is a bit fantastic.

Having said that, he may not be unable to borrow a knife to kill people, but Xie Xiao is not so stupid that he would disappear after killing someone, obviously taking the biggest suspicion on himself.

The subordinate saw that he was silent again, and immediately added fuel and jealousy: "Master, this subordinate knows that the ninth elder is your disciple, but the seventh elder has also been helping you for so many years, you can't just because of this—"

Before he finished speaking, Li Wenzhao looked at him suddenly, his eyes were full of coldness.

The subordinate knew that he had said something wrong, so he prostrated himself on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly: "My lord, my lord, this subordinate knows his mistake, this subordinate shouldn't talk too much, this subordinate deserves death."

Li Wenzhao didn't want to talk to him any more, so he said in a cold voice: "Stand back, and bring the things here."

"Yes, yes." Hearing the sound, the subordinate ran away in a scramble, fearing that Li Wenzhao would take his life if he was only a moment late.

After he left, the door was closed again, Li Wenzhao flicked his fingers, and a water mirror appeared in front of him instantly, and the surrounding water mist swayed, and after a while, a picture was formed.

It was Xie Xiao on the screen. It was late at night, and he was rummaging for something in the study. After searching for a long time, he finally sat down and closed his eyes for a moment. It seemed that he had received a sound transmission, but the water mirror only showed the picture , there will be no sound, so it is impossible to deduce what he heard.

Not long after listening to the sound transmission, he left, and before leaving, he used magic to eliminate the traces he left behind.

Li Wenzhao withdrew his hand again, and the water mirror suddenly disappeared. This was the formation he had set up in Tingyun Pavilion before his departure. The purpose was to see if Xie Xiao was really determined to rebel. He guessed countless times along the way, but instead Repeatedly, he didn't want to see Xie Xiao's figure in the water mirror.

However, Xie Xiao finally ran counter to his ideas.

Li Wenzhao picked up the teacup, but didn't drink it. He stared at the ups and downs of the tea leaves, lost in thought, as if he was recalling something, he put his emotions in his eyes, and his whole being fell into another scene.

On the day when Xie Xiao was brought back, there was a heavy snowfall on Jiuyi Mountain.

The hem of the long robe swept across the stone steps, and it was covered with crushed snow. He trotted, leaving snow marks on his feet. It was too cold, and he was afraid that the child would freeze, so he only wanted to return to the pavilion as soon as possible. It was too late to change clothes, so I asked the maid to add a brazier to the house.

Nan Zhu chattered after him, asking him if he really decided to raise this child.

"You really want to raise Xie Zichen's child? There should be a limit to your madness, right?"

Li Wenzhao's complexion was not very good-looking, his hands and face were covered with blood, and even his body was covered with scars. Fortunately, the robe was dark, so it couldn't be seen, but he didn't care, he just asked the maid how the child was doing. .

He didn't have much experience, he only knew that this little guy was crying all the time on the road, and he didn't know if he was uncomfortable somewhere. The maid was frightened by his appearance, so she didn't dare to speak.

"Don't worry about it, the child is just a child, it doesn't matter," Nanzhu asked the maid to step back, pulled Li Wenzhao aside, and said, "Listen to me."

Li Wenzhao never took his eyes off the child. At that time, Xie Xiao was only two or three years old, and he didn't understand what kind of situation he was facing.

"In the case of Xie's family, the people of Xianmen will definitely suspect you. You left Xie Zichen's child behind. You are undoubtedly digging a hole and setting yourself on fire. Have you ever thought that now that you have raised him, he will grow up?" What would happen if you found out that you killed his family?" Nan Zhu pressed his shoulders and refused to let him go, "Think about this matter carefully, it's not something that can be justified with compassion. "

Li Wenzhao's eyes stopped and he didn't speak.

The white jade swordsman Xie Zichen was a well-known existence in the immortal sect, and his entire sect was wiped out overnight by Li Wenzhao.

However, only Li Wenzhao knew that Xie Zichen himself came to the door for this matter. Xie Zichen was only twenty-eight years old and his cultivation was advanced. Demons heretics, if the world finds out, they will be notorious if they fail to keep them clean.

Xie Zichen was born in a famous family, if his reputation is ruined, he will not only be sorry for his ancestors, but also make the next generation feel ashamed. Even though he could not be more cautious, Shen Yao still knew about it.

Shen Yao used this to threaten him and asked him to do things for him. Xie Zichen was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so he had no choice but to agree. However, the more things he did, the more excuses he had.

From killing people with a borrowed knife at the beginning, to being ravaged unconditionally later, no matter how much he pleaded with Shen Yao, Shen Yao also turned a deaf ear to him. He killed too many people, walked through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and left more and more traces , but in just a few years, some people suspected him.

At that time, Li Wenzhao was a young man who was a well-known master of demons in the cultivation world. He was used to being arrogant and domineering on weekdays. No matter what bad things happened, he was the first object of suspicion in Xianmen, and he never bothered to explain it.

The day Xie Zichen approached Li Wenzhao, heavy snow fell all over the mountain.

Even Li Wenzhao was surprised by the downcast appearance of a fairy head from a high and noble family in the rumors.

Xie Zichen's words were very simple, and the meaning was obvious. He knew that he was the most threatening existence in the entire cultivation world, and he wanted to use his life to gain a reputation. He only hoped that Li Wenzhao could help raise his child.

At the same time, he didn't want Shen Yao to know about this child. Even if Xie Xiao really stepped into the devil's way in the future, he would be better than those people who pretended to be noble on the surface but did all kinds of evil behind their backs.

When Xie Zichen said this, there was uncontrollable anger in his eyes, but it was deeply suppressed. He laughed at himself, because he was also talking about himself.

After hearing this, Li Wenzhao stared at him in silence for a long time. The outside world often lamented Xie Zichen's high morals and integrity, but they didn't know that he had fallen into the abyss a long time ago, just by a single thought.

What happened to Xie Zichen has passed so long ago that now Li Wenzhao can't remember clearly, but he only remembers what he said before leaving, he said that he is like a burned skeleton, living without dignity is not as good as dying .

In order not to make people suspicious, Li Wenzhao followed Xie Zichen's request and killed dozens of members of Xie's family. The blood that flew that day stained his black robe, and he walked through the blood in short boots and came to Xie Zichen.

"Li Wenzhao, I thank Zichen for never respecting people of the way of demons in this life, but the time is different from the past. I thank someone. I thank you. If there is another life, I thank someone. I will make friends with you and have a drink or two!" He said Come on, make a deep bow to express your gratitude, and go up with your sword.

He was an enemy who was clearly an enemy on different roads, but when they confronted each other, he seemed to be an old friend. Xie Zichen smiled all over his eyes, and after a few tricks with him, he told him that the sword intent comes from the heart, invisible and tangible, and there is no need to follow the volume. as written in.

Li Wenzhao didn't know what he meant. He only remembered that when Xie Zichen was nailed to death on the plaque later, he was smiling. There was an indelible smile in his eyes, as if he was relieved. He closed his eyes slowly in a moment of silence. squinted.

He had been burdened with too many things, and he was finally relieved.

That day, the heavy snow all over the sky wiped away all the past and unbearable, Li Wenzhao stood in front of his corpse, pondering for a long time.

Feeling sad, confused, and sad, Xie Zichen chose this path to bury his unbearable life in the Xie family's reputation, so that the title of "White Jade Swordsman" will always remain in the hearts of the world.

Is it worth it?He wanted to ask, what's wrong with being a demonic obstacle in the world's population and living a happy life?However, Sanli Qingfeng was circling around, as if telling him that all obsessions, grievances and grievances, would eventually return to heaven and earth.

If there is really an emotion that cannot be eliminated, it is probably guilt. He is guilty of his wife and children, and he is guilty of sending the whole family to the point of no return with a single thought. Yao will not stop there.

Later, Li Wenzhao picked up the young Xie Xiao and returned to Jiuyi Mountain. Naturally, Shen Yao did not dare to let people investigate this matter to the end. Once the matter was revealed, there would be too many things to be involved. In all the news, the spearhead was directed at Li Wenzhao.

This was the result Xie Zichen wanted, and Li Wenzhao never explained it.

Now, Xie Xiao probably chose this path because he knew what happened back then from Shen Yao.Li Wenzhao's hand tightened subconsciously, the cup shattered in his hand, the tea dripped all over the floor, and blood dripped from his palm.

He looked at the mess all over the floor, as if it had been years.

Outside the door, Jiang Huai was thinking about how to find an excuse to ask Li Wenzhao about Xie Xiao, when he suddenly heard the sound of something being broken in the room, he didn't even have time to say hello, so he quickly opened the door and came in.

"Master, Master!" He was worried that Li Wenzhao was not feeling well, but when he saw this scene as soon as he entered the door, he couldn't help being dazed.

Li Wenzhao's hands rested on the chair handle, blood dripped down between his fingers, he still maintained a restrained posture, not letting any excess emotions show.

He is always like this, never expressing his joy or anger, but the moment he saw Jiang Huai, he smiled and asked softly: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with looking for me in such a hurry?"

The author has something to say:

About Xie Zichen, I mentioned a little bit in Chapter 3.If Xie Zichen wanted to settle it on his own, Shen Yao would still threaten his family, and with Shen Yao's strength, it would be easy to find his family, and he would not be able to escape, so he chose this path, and Xie Zichen said to Li Wenzhao It was indeed a future trouble, so he agreed to Xie Zichen's request.
