Not to mention the people outside the door, even Shen Budu himself was dumbfounded.

He already believed that there might be only one way to open the Blood Spirit Gate, so even though he hated Li Xinning so much, he didn't kill him, because the only hope was Li Xinning.

When the door opened suddenly, he was stunned for a rare moment, and he didn't react for several breaths, until he was embraced fiercely by a figure who crashed in - the touch and breath were too familiar, and his consciousness was too late. Thinking, he has already hugged the other party with his backhand with the same force.

Xie Jianhuan's nose trembled, like a wounded and dying beast, making strange choking and gasping sounds from its throat.He couldn't say a word, but his fear, helplessness, collapse and despair were all transmitted to Shen Budu through his tight chest. It was so painful and so thick that Shen Budu's eyes instantly wet, and his chest seemed to be scalded. A big hole was opened, and the whole heart was clenched in pain.

"It's all right..." He rubbed the back of the man's neck vigorously with the palm of his hand, and kept comforting him, "Don't be afraid, it's all right..."

Xie Jianhuan opened his mouth, and in front of him was the thin and thin shoulders and neck of that man. For a moment, he wished he could bite on it hard, swallowing this life into his stomach one bite at a time.But he was reluctant, so he could only rub the other person's back fiercely, the knuckles of his hands were protruding, and the veins were stretched out, like a pair of diamond iron buckles, locking the person in his arms forever and ever.

Shen Budu was in pain from being strangled, but he didn't say a word, like comforting a panicked and violent beast, he stroked his back patiently and gently.

The big rock in everyone's heart fell to the ground with a bang. Lu Danxu grabbed Fang Shaojun's arm and cried and laughed.Among the people present, the only one who couldn't laugh was probably Li Xinning.

"How is it possible..." His face was full of disbelief, his eyes were tearing apart, and he roared uncontrollably, "How is it possible!!"

His senior brother was hugging someone else, and this scene in front of him hurt his heart more than the most poisonous poison or the most ruthless sharp knife.At this moment, he lost all his sanity, his only thought was to fight hard with Xie Jianhuan! !

But Xie Jianhuan's movements were faster than his - the man's eyes were scarlet, he suddenly stretched out his arms and grabbed his neck, and abruptly lifted him up!

"It's you who deserves to be damned." His eyes were extremely cold, and his expression was full of extreme violence and hatred, like a dragon that was touched by its reverse scales and completely enraged, suddenly tightened its five fingers!

Li Xinning's feet were lifted off the ground, and there was a terrible crackling of joints in his throat, and the skin of his neck was deeply sunken.His eyes widened, staring at Shen Budu at the last moment of dying, his lips struggled to open, as if he wanted to call his senior brother again.

But Shen Budu didn't look at him, turned his head and closed his eyes.

The 15-year relationship was finally cut off abruptly at this moment and disappeared.

Throwing the lifeless corpse behind him, Xie Jianhuan stepped forward to hold Shen Budu's hand, as if he was afraid that he would disappear again in the next moment.Shen Budu held him back, without looking at the scene behind him, he led him out of the secret room.

"I made you worry." He smiled at the people outside the door, and was a little puzzled, "How did you open this door?"

Unexpectedly, the people outside the door also looked confused. Lu Danxu was staring at the hands of his master and senior brother in a daze. Hearing this, he came back to his senses and said: "I don't know! We tried [-] ways to no avail. Who knew the door would suddenly open just now!"

All of a sudden?

Shen Budu turned around, his gaze stayed on Shimen's fresh bloodstain for a moment, and then fell on Li Xingyu who was closest to Shimen.

"Brother Shen." The young man hadn't recovered from the horrified state just now, and there were still clearly visible tears on his face. Seeing Shen Budu looking at him, he subconsciously called out.

"Yeah." Shen Budu asked, "Is the blood on the door yours?"

Li Xingyu was stunned for a moment, only to be belatedly aware that the palm of his right hand had been scratched and was in pain, so he replied foolishly: "Ah...it seems to be."

Shen Budu stared at him for a long time, as if he was confirming something through his slightly immature facial features: "Li Yong... is also the founder of Tianya Canghaimen. He had three sons in his life. The youngest son was taken away by the enemy shortly after he was born. It couldn't be found either."

Li Xingyu didn't understand at first, so he looked at him stupidly.

Shen Budu sighed softly, stretched out his hand and rubbed his head: "Xingyu, you were not born in Beihuang, your home used to be here."

Li Xingyu was completely stunned, and it was extremely difficult to digest what Shen Budu said.The others never expected that things would develop like this, and they all opened their mouths in surprise.

Yes, who would have thought of it?

Li Yong's two sons, Zeng En, took revenge and killed Shen Budu. After Shen Budu was reborn, he met Li Xingyu, and Li Xingyu happened to be Li Yong's third son, and accidentally rescued his most beloved brother Shen... …

In the dark, there is a destiny.Things like fate are really wonderful sometimes.

-

The battle situation on the front line was still fierce, Shen Budu immediately took over the command after understanding the situation, and passed on the orders one by one in an orderly manner.

At the same time, he went to the front line and met Murong Yuanqing who fell into a berserk state after being implanted with the Sky Demon Crystal. He took the opponent's head within ten moves, beheaded thousands of monsters, and stabilized the army's morale.All sects gradually stabilized from the panic of encountering shocking changes, and worked together to resist evil cultivators and monsters according to the instructions.

The situation gradually turned around. Zhong Jinglun, who was hiding in the dark to observe the situation, saw that the situation was not good, and immediately chose to retreat cunningly.Many evil cultivators who escaped from Wujian Cliff also fled, and the war finally ceased temporarily. All the monks and common people of Shangling breathed a sigh of relief and hugged the people around them, crying and laughing for the rest of their lives.

All the remaining monsters were wiped out, and the escaped Xiexiu continued to pursue him. He Zhonghan went to track down Zhong Jinglun himself, and Shen Budu asked Fang Shaojun and Lu Danxu to assist him, and then asked Xie Jianhuan to accompany him to a place.

"Acacia Island?"

Landing on the small island, looking at the towering towers in front of him, Xie Jianhuan asked: "Master, come to find Feng Ce?"

Speaking of which, Xie Jianhuan was actually a little puzzled.Feng Ce's thoughts on Shen Budu are extraordinary, and Feifeng Pavilion has great powers and is well-informed, it is impossible for him not to know all kinds of changes that happened in the upper spirit world.But when Shen Budu was locked in the Blood Spirit Gate, Feng Ce didn't show up for a long time, which made Xie Jianhuan secretly surprised.

"Yeah." Shen Budu raised his head, staring at the vermilion-painted Feifeng Pavilion, "There are some things that I want to ask him personally."

There are large tracts of Phoenix trees planted around Feifeng Pavilion, which are in full bloom even in winter, flaming red like a magnificent flame.

The entrance of the pavilion was unguarded, Shen Budu went straight in, walked up to the small building on the second floor.

A light, pleasant-smelling incense was burning in the air, and behind the light red gauze curtain was a silhouette sitting peacefully.As if expecting someone to visit, the person behind the curtain turned his wrist lightly, lifted the pot and poured two cups of new tea, and greeted with a smile as usual: "You are here."

Shen Budu turned the gauze curtain and sat down opposite Feng Ce.Xie Jianhuan didn't sit down, and stood behind Shen Budu without saying a word, like a loyal and silent guard.

Feng Ce glanced at him, and said to Shen Budu in a joking tone: "Why did you bring him too? We don't get along well, you know."

Shen Budu: "I have gained a lot of wisdom after eating a ditch, and finally came out of the Blood Spirit Gate. Who knows if Pavilion Master Feng has any other successors waiting for me?"

Xie Jianhuan's pupils shrank, and because Shen Budu's words stirred up a storm in his heart, he suddenly stared at Feng Ce!

Feng Ce stared at Shen Budu, his dark golden eyes were confused: "Did you guess it?" He paused, and said, "I won't really trap you in it. Li Xingyu was an accident, even without him, I can still let you go." You come out."

"Actually, there is a second method to open the Blood Spirit Gate. It's just that people in the world think this method is impossible, so it hasn't been spread."

Shen Budu nodded: "Phoenix blood, is it?"

Feng Ce said calmly: "Yes. After everything is over, I will personally pick you up."

Shen Budu: "You are a descendant of the Phoenix Clan. You were there when the Yao Clan site was opened on Lingshan. You used your blood to break the seal in the Phoenix Tomb and awaken the remnant soul of the ancestor Phoenix."

Feng Ce: "Did you know it was me then?"

No.Didn't know it at the time.

It's just that there is a phoenix stone wall in the phoenix tomb, and fresh blood remains on the phoenix totem on the stone wall.Shen Budu wondered at the time, the enchantment at the entrance of the Phoenix Tomb was so powerful that several masters from the Heavenly Rankings teamed up to barely break through, who in the world could enter the tomb before them, and why did they leave blood on the totem?

At that time, he couldn't figure it out, but now, Shen Budu actually still doesn't understand.

"Why did you wake up the ancestor Phoenix?" Shen Budu asked, "Revenge on the human race?"

Feng Ce didn't answer, but asked instead: "A'Du, do you know? In order to awaken the ancestor Phoenix, it is not enough to only use the blood of the Phoenix people, one more thing is needed, and that is the blood of the enemy."

He said softly, "Let me show you something."

He stretched out his fingertips, and a cluster of jumping flames quietly ignited on his jade fingertips. It was his natal divine fire - "Prison Lotus".But this is just a disguise, the true face of the prison lotus is the Phoenix Divine Fire.

The bright red phoenix fire burned all over the entire pavilion in an instant, surrounding the three of them.But this fire has no temperature and does not hurt people. It is of the same nature as the flames encountered in the Phoenix Tomb.

When the flames dissipated, a completely different picture appeared in front of Shen Budu.

This is a peach blossom forest.The pink petals are all over the mountains and fields, and there are several simple houses covered in the mountains. There are soft mud and green grass in front of the houses, winding paths, and gurgling water.

Before the fall of the ancestor Phoenix, he left a motto to future generations, saying "never trust human beings".So the descendants of the Phoenix family lived in seclusion in the Taohuayuan for generations, isolated from the world, and completely cut off communication with the world.

The ancestor Phoenix's demon power is powerful, but due to the withered blood and few descendants, the number of Phoenix people after a thousand years is less than a hundred, and the demon power is far less than one ten-thousandth of the ancestor Phoenix.They have lived in seclusion for generations and are self-sufficient. Compared with the monster race, their lifestyle is closer to that of humans.

These tribes love each other, are intimate with each other, and live a leisurely life day after day, but because the demon power is getting weaker and weaker, one day the secret barrier outside the Peach Blossom Spring is accidentally broken, and then more than a dozen humans broke in.

It was the first time that the Phoenix people had lived here for a hundred years and they saw foreigners, so Qiqi couldn't help being very nervous, looking at this group of unexpected guests vigilantly.But those human beings were very polite. The man at the head was in his thirties, with elegant appearance and polite manners, and respectfully reported his family: "I am Zhong Jinglun in Wuliang Villa, this is Murong Yuanqing from Huangji Palace, Du Xiangrong from the Du family, And our subordinates. It is a helpless act to venture into this place, so please forgive me."

Zhong Jinglun explained that the group of monks fell into the trap of the ghost clan and was severely injured. When trying to break out, they accidentally discovered this enchantment and broke in to escape.

"Many of us have been seriously injured, and the ghost clan is searching for our traces outside again, so we dare not leave at this time." Chief Zhong Jinglun bowed and sincerely asked, "Can we stay here for a night? After dawn, the ghost clan retreats, and we promise to leave immediately."

The people of the Phoenix tribe hesitated, because these people were indeed miserable, and even a few young people had broken arms, and their lives seemed to be hanging by a thread.But the ancestors have taught that they are never allowed to interact with human beings, so the people of the clan are very embarrassed, and they don't know whether to keep these troubled people.

"Just staying with them for one night, isn't that considered dating?" A 14-year-old girl said timidly, with a bit of unbearable expression, "They look so pitiful."

So these humans are finally left behind.

They kept their word, and left early the next morning. Before leaving, they thanked them repeatedly, saying that they would repay their life-saving grace if they had the opportunity.About half a month later, the man named Zhong Jinglun really came back. He didn't bring anyone else, but he brought many rare and precious things, which he said were gifts from last time.

The Phoenix people refused to take it, but Zhong Jinglun insisted on staying and left.

From now on, Zhong Jinglun will come every once in a while, and every time he comes, he will bring various "thank you gifts".The people of the Phoenix tribe have lived outside the world for a long time, so where have they seen so many strange things? In addition, Zhong Jinglun behaved dignifiedly, warmly and politely. He relaxed his vigilance, and occasionally chatted with him a few words.

At first, the little girl who advised her elders to help those humans was called Fengling. Zhong Jinglun brought her many beautiful clothes and hairpins. She liked them so much that she couldn't put them down, and asked her younger brother shyly and happily: "Ace, look at these things, they are so beautiful." , will flash."

The boy was less than ten years old, much younger than Ms. Ah, but his temperament was very calm.His eyes are dark gold, and he looks much nobler and more beautiful than his clansmen, but at this moment, his eyes are a little dark, and he said: "Don't want that person's things."

Feng Ling was puzzled: "Why?"

The boy asked: "The ancestor Phoenix said, don't associate with humans."

Feng Ling couldn't help but argue: "But they don't look bad."

The boy lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "Did you forget Qin? That person didn't look bad at first."

Everyone in the Phoenix clan knows about the tragedy of the ancestor Phoenix.Fengling suddenly became a little scared. She seemed to have made up her mind and threw away all the clothes and hairpins. Turning around, she saw her one and a half year old sister eating candy. The candy was also given by Zhong Jinglun, so she quickly took it and threw it away. Leo: "Good boy, don't eat what other people give you in the future, remember?"

The little girl didn't know if she understood, but she smiled obediently, and stretched out her short arms for her brothers and sisters to hug.

A few months later, Zhong Jinglun stopped coming and seemed to have forgotten about this place.The Phoenix people couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief—although they felt that the human was not malicious, they still felt uneasy in their hearts when they violated the ancestral precepts and interacted with human beings.

Now that the problem is solved, they have returned to the peaceful and simple days of the past.

Until another night, a group of human beings broke through the barrier and broke into the Peach Blossom Spring. This time, they were not weak people taking refuge, but demons with butcher knives.

"Seal the entrance, don't let them run out." Zhong Jinglun ordered his subordinates lightly, "There are 96 in total, don't miss them."

The subordinates in black responded in unison, drew their swords and rushed into the house, tearing apart the peaceful moonlight.

"If I hadn't discovered it, you'd probably be ready to take it all by yourself?" Murong Yuanqing sneered, "This is the legendary Phoenix family, and you still use those rags to curry favor with them, but they themselves are the most powerful people in the world." A treasure that people are madly looking for."

Zhong Jinglun obviously didn't intend to let others share a piece of the pie, but he was helplessly caught by Murong Yuanqing. He was very disgusted in his heart, and his face was cold and noncommittal.

Du Xiangrong rubbed his hands aside, his eyes were full of fanatical excitement and greed: "It is said that a drop of phoenix blood can boost one's cultivation for a hundred years! We have agreed before that the 96 will be divided into three shares, and no one can take more!"

He was bargaining, as if the numbers in his mouth were not living beings but something else.

Zhong Jinglun was disgusted in his eyes, and said coldly: "Understood. But remember, you must not spread the news tonight, otherwise you and I, the three of us, will never get a foothold in the cultivation world!"

During the conversation, members of the Phoenix tribe were kidnapped by Wuhuada one after another.Men, women and children lined up in several rows, all of them had their mouths sealed and could not speak, only fear, despair and hatred remained on their faces.

"Don't make such an expression, blame your identities if you want to blame." Murong Yuanqing gestured, "Let's get started."

Under the terrified eyes of the Phoenix people, many men in black came to them, cut their throat arteries with knives, and began to collect blood with special instruments.

One knife after another, like slaughtering a lamb that has no resistance, the gagged clansmen can't even scream, they can only let out a mournful and desperate whimper from their throats.The peach petals were dyed blood red, swaying on the branches, and reflected on the ground by the pale moonlight, like ghosts twisted and struggling in purgatory.

Zhong Jinglun turned a blind eye to all this, his eyes swept across the Phoenix people, and his eyes suddenly focused: "That's not right."

He sternly said: "Three people are missing! How are you doing things? Hurry up and find me!"

The subordinates immediately drew their knives and began to search. In the corner behind the wall of the house, Feng Ling hugged her sister tightly in her arms, trembling with horror.

Just now in her sleep, her younger brother hastily shook her awake and took her to hide, thus barely escaping the hunt of those people.But right now, those people are coming over immediately!

In the end...they still couldn't escape death!

Under such circumstances, the younger brother was much calmer, with a faint fire burning in his dark golden eyes, he said in a low voice: "Shut up, follow me."

There is also a secluded path in the back mountain of Taohuayuan. Those people are not familiar with this place, so they didn't send anyone to block that exit.Enduring her fear and tears, Fengling closely followed her younger brother's footsteps, and when she was about to approach the exit, she suddenly shouted from behind: "There! Chase!"

The boy suddenly grabbed her wrist and dragged her to run forward crazily!

But they were too small and too weak.

The footsteps behind them were like butcher's knives about to fall, and they would rest on their necks in the next moment.Feng Ling's eyes were blurred with tears, she suddenly exhausted all her strength, pushed her younger brother forward hard with her backhand, and shouted heart-piercingly, "Run! Run!"

It is impossible for them all to run out, the younger sister is too young, and throwing it to the younger brother will be a drag.The younger brother is the smartest in the clan, if he is alone, he might still have a chance to escape.

Feng Ling turned around with the child in her arms, resolutely ran towards the man in black, lowered her head and bit a man's arm fiercely.

The sound of cursing and kicking sounded behind him, and the boy's back froze for a moment, and he rushed out along the mountain road without looking back.

run...

run! !

The pale moon shone on the mountain road, and the night wind passed through the swaying tree shadows, making rustling noises, like the mournful wailing of a lonely ghost.The road in front of him was black, and it was clearly blood-red. He opened his mouth to pant, his thin body tore through the thick fog of the night, and frantically struggled towards the road of survival.

The people behind caught up, cursing and shouting, and then there was a sound of piercing through the air, something fiercely chasing and smashing on his knees, and the creepy sound of bone shattering rang in his ears.

His leg was broken, and he fell heavily on the icy mountain road.

run……

The boy didn't seem to feel the pain, he stretched out his ten fingers, dug them into the soil in front of him, and crawled forward desperately.

run...

His nails were broken, and there was blood between his fingers. His cheeks were red, his veins were bulging, and his eyes gleamed coldly. The moment the man in black rushed over behind him, he jumped up with all his strength and fell into the depths at the end of the mountain road. bottom of the cliff!

The young Phoenix survived.

But his wings were broken forever.
