Chapter 338 I Watch You Act

Mr. Donkey fished the girl out of the river. Her body was completely soaked in water, her face was pale and bloodless, and it was obvious that she was breathing more than she was breathing in. If they didn't think of a way, she might die on the boat.

Zuo Chen walked up to her and looked at her face.

very beautiful.

She was probably in her twenties, wearing palace clothes, her hair was all loose, her face was pale, her lips were blue, and her chest was still moving slightly, and she seemed to be still alive.

Zuo Chen had seen this man's face before.

At that time in Kyoto, Zuo Chen looked through the portraits of all the princes of the Li family in the scrolls in the imperial study, including that of this girl.

King Xuan of Yangzhou.

Li Yunxiu.

However, the fate of this prince is slowly changing, with two destinies blending and separating into one.

Zuo Chen's mouth twitched slightly.

Speak of the devil and he will appear.

Such a highly accomplished stealing of destiny, if it wasn’t in that person’s destiny, Zuo Chen really couldn’t imagine which genius could have such ability.

However, Zuo Chen could also discover that Li Yunxiu's fate had not been completely stolen by others. There was still a part of his weakened life essence, and that part of his life essence was tightly grasping the last remaining fate, preventing it from being completely lost.

It's like grass roots under a violent storm; they can be blown down but can never be pulled out.

Seeing this scene, Zuo Chen began to think for a moment.

This magical method of stealing life is not the traditional soul possession, but a more advanced magical power. Now the two souls are completely mixed into one. If Zuo Chen extracts the soul in his life, the remaining consciousness of Li Yunxiu will surely disappear.

I had heard before that King Xuan had a very high reputation among the people and should have a good character. If I could save Zuo Chen, I would like to do so.

How to save it then?

The depth of this magic method of stealing is even more complicated and tedious than the magic method of Qingqiu Great Dream. Zuo Chen estimated that he would need to go into seclusion for two or three days to learn it, and another four or five days to reversely study the method of splitting. All in all, it would take less than a week, and King Xuan might not be able to withstand it.

It seems we need to come up with a solution.

"Master, can I use my true energy to save her?"

Caiyi naturally didn't know what Zuo Chen was thinking, but she felt that Zuo Chen was a little weird today, so she pointed at the girl lying on the ground and asked.

Zuo Chen waved his hand:

"I'll do it myself."

With a light flick of his fingers, a stream of spiritual energy directly penetrated into Li Yunxiu's body, and a trace of Zuo Chen's hidden thoughts also sneaked into Li Yunxiu's body.

He tried it a little and found that Mingyou and Li Yunxiu would indeed prosper and suffer together. If he supported Li Yunxiu's thoughts, Mingyou would be strengthened, and if he damaged Mingyou, Li Yunxiu would also be harmed.

So Zuo Chen changed his thinking directly.

He directly used his spiritual energy to install a lot of blockades in this body, adding seals one after another while ensuring that the three souls and seven spirits inside would not notice.

It was as if a layer of solid iron was branded on top of this ever-changing fate, rendering it unable to change.

After he did this, the speed at which his destiny was devouring Li Yunxiu's destiny slowed down at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At the end, it was completely stagnant.

Only then did Zuo Chen change the circulation of his spiritual energy with satisfaction, and simply stimulated the opponent's three souls and seven spirits.

The woman on the deck, who was originally bloodless, quickly recovered her vitality at a speed visible to the naked eye. She suddenly opened her eyes, coughed several times in succession, opened her mouth wide, and spat out a large mouthful of water.

The water mixed with some filth fell onto the boat. The boat shook twice in dissatisfaction, and the place contaminated by the filth instantly became transparent, and the filth was shaken directly into the bottom of the water.

"Queen Xuan", who had recovered from her shock, gasped heavily. She tilted her head slightly and looked at the people in front of her.

The pair of peach blossom eyes swept across the three people and finally fell on Zuo Chen's face.

He paused for half a breath before looking away.

"Thank you so much for saving me. I have no way to repay you."

She tried to stand up from the boat, but her legs seemed a little weak. She swayed a few times before finally sitting down with the help of the boat.

"Have a good rest first." Zuo Chen stared at her, with a kind and gentle smile on his face: "Are you the Queen Xuan?"

"Master Taoist, do you know me?" "King Xuan" opened his eyes wide with an "incredible" look.

"I have been lucky enough to visit Kyoto before, and I have seen portraits of various feudal lords there, including the portrait of Prince Xuan. I thought you looked beautiful enough in the portrait, but I didn't expect that you would be even more beautiful in person."

"Where."

"You're welcome." The two of them complimented each other on the small boat.

Caiyi couldn't help but shiver.

When the Taoist priest is about to do something bad, he always becomes so "cheerful", but this is the first time that Caiyi sees Zuo Chen smile so happily.

The damage this time was a little bit bigger.

However, Caiyi really didn't understand what King Xuan had done to make the Taoist priest act like this.

……

"King Xuan" rested for a while and adjusted his state before telling Zuo Chen and the others what happened in Yangzhou City:

“The Holy Lotus Sect has been besieging our city for more than a month. At first, we stayed indoors and planned to contact Kyoto for help. Who would have thought that the group of believers would take out the evil corpse they found on the coast and chant scriptures around it day and night.

"On the first day, the evil corpse did not move at all and listened to their singing quietly. Everyone in the city thought they were just performing a crazy and useless ritual, and no one took it seriously.

"On the second day, the evil corpse that was originally lying sat up, and layers of tender buds and flowers grew around the corpse. The group of people who were singing around her were also transformed into trees. We realized that something was wrong and wanted to send some experts to stop it, but the so-called experts in the city would be affected as long as they got close to the corpse, and they would become her loyal believers and would never waver.

"On the third day, the evil corpse actually stood up and walked towards Yangzhou City. The gate of Yangzhou City could not stop her at all. Everything she passed turned into vegetation. Just by moving forward, she turned most of Yangzhou City into this state."

When "King Xuan" talked about this, there was a look of horror on his face.

It seemed as if the incident had left a profound impression on her.

"Since that corpse has such power, how did you escape from it?"

Caiyi scratched her head and couldn't help asking.

It sounds like under such a great disaster, this Queen Xuan would certainly not be able to escape, but she is standing here intact, and no one knows what means she used.

"King Xuan" sighed:

"After Yangzhou fell, I knew it was not feasible to stay in the city, so I planned to leave under the escort of my retainers. Suddenly, this towering tree grew and broke through the ground. I slipped and fell into the moat. I didn't expect to be able to flow out and be rescued by you. I was really lucky."

Caiyi thought about it for a while and always felt that something was wrong.

According to Li Yunxiu, it shouldn't have taken her too long to fall into the river and float out. However, her soul fragrance had already disappeared before Zuo Chen and the others entered Kyoto.

The timing doesn't match at all!

Cai Yi thought of Zuo Chen's attitude towards this "King Xuan" again. It was estimated that Zuo Chen must have seen something wrong. After thinking for a few seconds, he also showed an exaggerated expression:
"Really? That's too dangerous!"

Donkey Master, who was rowing towards Yangzhou City, turned his head slightly and glanced at Caiyi.

Caiyi has not learned many of Zuo Chen's good qualities, but has learned his bad habits.

It is really difficult to learn good things, but it is very easy to learn bad things.

But Donkey also wanted to see what Zuo Chen was planning to do, so he just kept silent and let things develop as they did.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty. We are going back to Yangzhou City to deal with the matter of the corpse. We will definitely help Your Majesty regain everything that has been lost."

When Queen Xuan heard Zuo Chen's words, she didn't know why she always felt that Zuo Chen had something else in mind, but she still smiled gently and nodded:
"I'm sorry for all the trouble, Taoist priest."

Zuo Chen comforted Queen Xuan a few more words before giving up the cabin so that she could have a good rest alone.

After Zuo Chen left the cabin, "Queen Xuan" still had a kind smile on her face. She closed her eyes and began to rest. No one knew what she was thinking.

Zuo Chen sat down beside the boat and manipulated the true Qi that he had left in Li Yunxiu's body. He soon found the remaining consciousness of Li Yunxiu.

Zuo Chen could still feel a faint consciousness from it.

A strand of thought was separated and slowly merged into the remaining fate, causing some ripples in Li Yunxiu's fate, which was as smooth as a wave.

Zuo Chen had a peculiar feeling of falling into a lake, as if he was weightless in the air.

After a moment, this feeling disappeared, and his thought became real.

Looking up, I saw nothingness all around, and in the middle of this large area of ​​gray and brown stood a woman in palace dress.

Most of her hair was let down, with a hairpin inserted in the place where it was tied, and her hair was as smooth as a waterfall.

Sensing movement behind her, the woman tilted her head slightly.

After she saw Zuo Chen, she showed a slight surprise in her eyes, and then she bowed to Zuo Chen:
"I've met the Taoist priest."

This person,

It is the real King Xuan.
