Mixed in the heavens, merits and virtues become immortals

Chapter 412 Tearing open Chonglou's heart

A love story spanning three lifetimes, Changqing's hope of becoming an immortal...

Zixuan's anger was becoming increasingly difficult to contain.

"Wow……"

Lin Qing'er burst into tears at just the right moment.

This loud cry made Zi Xuan suppress her anger. Looking at Lin Qing'er in Gu Qing's arms, who was crying and stretching her arms and legs, Zi Xuan felt angry, ashamed, wronged, and disappointed. She snatched Lin Qing'er back and couldn't help but cry out.

As descendants of Nuwa, is it really that difficult for the three of us to reunite as a family...?

The older one was crying, the younger one was making a fuss, and Gu Qing stood aside quietly, acting as an outsider. He let Zi Xuan have a good cry first, so that she could vent some of her anger and grievances.

Does this count as fulfilling Zixuan's wish to cry?

Gu Qing also failed to uncover any merits.

Once Zixuan's crying subsided, Gu Qing said at the opportune moment, "The child is just hungry."

Zi Xuan raised her face, her cheeks streaked with tears, her eyes filled with a hidden hatred, and said, "You don't need to worry about it!" This mention of being hungry reminded Zi Xuan of what Gu Qing had said earlier, the nonsense that had made her vomit again.

“I just looked around and saw a mother with a child at the foot of the mountain. I’ll go catch two pheasants for her. You hold the child and let Qing’er have a meal first.”

Gu Qing whispered a word of advice.

Lin Qing'er's crying continued unabated.

Zi Xuan channeled her spiritual energy and found the child's mother at the foot of the mountain. Now that Gu Qing had ruined the alchemy within her body, Zi Xuan was furious and somewhat disheartened. Now that Lin Qing'er was hungry, she no longer wanted the puppet soup. The maternal love that had been delayed for many years burned in Zi Xuan's heart.

Holding the child, Zixuan took a step and went straight down the mountain, while Gu Qing followed behind, carrying two pheasants. The people around Huangshan were simple and honest. When the mother saw the baby, she burst into tears and, without even looking at the pheasants, hugged them to her arms and began to feed them.

Looking at Lin Qing'er's current appearance, Zi Xuan felt ashamed again.

After Lin Qing'er finished drinking, Zi Xuan took the child and had Gu Qing bring over a pheasant to thank them properly. When Gu Qing returned to Zi Xuan's side, Zi Xuan smelled a sweet fragrance.

It smelled like honey and osmanthus, hazy and indistinct. Zixuan couldn't quite tell the difference. She wanted to smell it again to distinguish it, but then she was surprised to find that the scent was spreading from Gu Qing.

"I don't have time to deal with you right now!"

Zi Xuan raised her eyes and said coldly.

She ruined her three lifetimes of love and cut off Xu Changqing's path to immortality. This debt must be settled!

"But you won't have to wait long; I'll come knocking and take it back!"

Zi Xuan's voice was filled with malice; she hated Gu Qing to the extreme.

"Actually, have you noticed that Qing'er isn't absorbing your spiritual energy right now?"

Gu Qing said with a hint of reserve.

what?
Zixuan immediately checked Qing'er and saw that there was nothing wrong with Qing'er's body. She was growing normally and increasing her spiritual power just like the descendants of Nuwa. Such a change had never occurred in the Nuwa clan before.

"I have some secret techniques."

Gu Qing said in a simple and honest way, but his appearance was not suitable for making such a silly and cute expression. In Zi Xuan's eyes, this expression was a bit like playing tricks.

"How long can your secret technique last?"

Zixuan asked.

“If Qing’er cultivates in the future, this will be permanent.” Gu Qing replied, “However, you should also cultivate. This way, one will be sealed and the other closed, so that if one of them has a problem, it won’t affect the other.”

This question and answer made Zi Xuan's expression towards Gu Qing increasingly complicated. On the one hand, Gu Qing destroyed the alchemy process in her body, causing her to persevere for so long and fail at the last moment. On the other hand, Gu Qing's secret method might save the Nuwa clan from tragedy and rewrite their destiny.

In this world, there is only one descendant of Nuwa. If there were a few more, let this descendant of Nuwa become the Nuwa clan...

[To Zixuan's satisfaction...]

[To Zixuan's satisfaction...]

[To Zixuan's satisfaction...]

Gu Qingshan's interface kept fluctuating. This secret method not only fulfilled Zi Xuan's wish as a mother to raise Lin Qing'er, but also satisfied Zi Xuan's joy at the change of the fate of the Nuwa clan, as well as her preparations for Xu Changqing's next life...

That's right, Xu Changqing has failed in this life, and Zixuan can no longer commit to it. She can only plan for the next life.

After drifting in thought for a while, Zi Xuan looked at Gu Qing beside her. Seeing that Gu Qing was still by her side, coaxing Lin Qing'er, Zi Xuan felt inexplicably irritated.

"Could you teach me the secret?"

Zi Xuan stated her request, and after thinking for a moment, she realized she should offer Gu Qing some conditions. However, the impact Gu Qing had had on her before was too great, making Zi Xuan reluctant to let Gu Qing off easy. She said, "Even if I don't pursue the matter with you."

The best outcome would be for both parties to call it even.

"of course can."

Gu Qing immediately agreed, then looked at Zi Xuan and said, "I took out the Water Spirit Pearl, which ruined your important plans. I owe you a lot. It would be best to make up for it with a secret manual. However, I'm afraid it won't be very good for you to practice this technique..."

Zi Xuan frowned, puzzled.

Gu Qing immediately spoke up, saying, "The main issue is the physical structure of your Nuwa clan. There are many things I don't understand. If you don't understand these things, it would be like me prescribing medicine without a proper prescription. Whether it can cure you or not is up to you. After all, your Nuwa clan also has a transformation ability, right?"

Gu Qing's words were reasonable and well-founded. He did want to figure out the physical mysteries of the Nuwa clan. This human-headed, snake-bodied creature was said to be the "Dao".

Zi Xuan frowned as she looked at Gu Qing. Seeing the calmness in Gu Qing's eyes, she knew that this was necessary. Her gaze then turned to little Lin Qing'er... This matter did indeed affect the overall inheritance of the Nuwa clan. This kind of thing could not be entrusted to Lin Qing'er, after all, Lin Qing'er was already an adult when she could transform.

After much thought, it seems that only Zixuan can cooperate with Gu Qing.

“Alright, you can pass on the secrets to me, and I will transform in front of you and explore these mysteries with you.”

Zi Xuan stared intently at Gu Qing and said, "This doesn't mean anything!"

Of course, it doesn't mean anything!
Gu Qing nodded heavily, but this kind of cooperation was probably a heartfelt one for Chonglou.

When Chonglou's good deeds came to light, Gu Qing knew that this Demon Lord had been secretly observing Zi Xuan, watching her joys and sorrows, and silently keeping her in mind. He would step in to protect Zi Xuan when she was in danger... But everything between Gu Qing and Zi Xuan was kept to a minimum.

This also prevented Chonglou from having a chance to show his face.

Where should we seek enlightenment?

Zixuan looked at Lin Qing'er in her arms and asked.

"Why don't we go back to the Nuwa Temple together?"

Gu Qing had nowhere else to go, so he directly chose the Nuwa Palace, which earned him more merit from Zi Xuan and also caused Chonglou, who was hiding in the shadows, to feel grief.

In this world, the brave are always the first to enjoy life.
