Longevity, starting from traveling and telling stories

Chapter 154 Not on purpose

It's getting dark.

The cold moon hangs high in the sky, the breeze blows gently, and waves of the fragrance of elixir flowers come in, which is refreshing.

Under the cold moon, beside the ancient well in the courtyard, a figure was sitting, frowning as he thought about something.

View panel.

[Name: Ye Beixuan, Age: 20]

【Lifespan: 200 years】

【Cultivation: Foundation Building】

[Kung Fu: Chaos Art, Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique]

[Current Effect: Increase lifespan, strengthen]

Why can others build their foundations to be 300 to 400 years old, but I am only 200 years old? Ye Beixuan has been pondering this question. When he first came here, he was free of illness and disaster, but his life span was only years old. He was forced to travel around and tell stories.

Now that his cultivation had broken through, and his life span had been extended by storytelling, he was only two hundred years old.

Was I really here to complete the Investiture of the Gods? Just like Jiang Ziya? But Jiang Ziya's endgame was to enjoy all the wealth and then die of old age, but I don't want to die of old age! If I wanted wealth and fame, I would have had a litter of children with the Zhou Emperor long ago. I just don't want to die!

This Investiture of the Gods is really hilarious. Shen Gongbao didn't want to become an immortal but only wanted wealth and glory in the human world, but he ended up becoming an immortal. Jiang Ziya devoted himself to cultivating immortality but ended up dying of old age.

"What are you thinking about?" A clear voice like a mountain spring flowed through Ye Beixuan's heart.

At the same time, a pair of slender hands embraced his waist. He felt a softness on his back and a fragrance came with it. Some of the scattered hair gently brushed across his cheek, bringing a slight itch. It turned out that Li Xianglian's chin was directly pressed on Ye Beixuan's shoulder.

Amitabha, the Buddha of Infinite Life.

Ye Beixuan turned his head, and their lips were only two fingers apart, and their noses were almost touching. They could feel each other's breath and the touch of their noses.

"I'm thinking of you." Ye Beixuan didn't say anything more and immediately used his ultimate move.

"Really?" There was joy in Li Xianglian's tone.

"Really." His heartbeat was accelerating, and Ye Beixuan unconsciously approached her slowly.

However, just as he was about to get closer, Li Xianglian stretched out her soft hand and gently pushed him away. She whispered, "Change back."

"." Ye Beixuan transformed back to his original appearance. Li Xianglian felt that this was much more pleasing to the eye. Then she closed her eyes obediently, her red lips slightly opened, as if waiting for him to taste and take what he wanted.

The moonlight is like water, and the silver light fills the courtyard. The breeze blows, bringing bursts of floral fragrance.

The moonlight shone on their faces, as if giving them a soft halo.

Li Xianglian raised her head slightly, and Ye Beixuan looked down at her with a gentle gaze.

The two figures intertwined under the moonlight, as if they had merged into one between heaven and earth.

As the breath approached, Li Xianglian's eyelashes trembled slightly and a faint smile appeared at the corner of her lips.

The two people's breaths intertwined, and it seemed that even the air became sweet.

Finally, their lips touched lightly, like two bright red petals gently encountering each other in the wind, gentle and lingering.

The moonlight fell on them, the picture froze, and even the wind seemed to have stopped breathing.

Not far away, Ye Xiaobei was hiding behind the crack of the door, his eyes wide open, staring at the scene without blinking.

His face looked like that of an old father who was worried sick.

He muttered in his heart: "Master, oh master, you have finally been taken down by Master's wife."

Just when the two were in love.

A streak of light streaked across the sky, and Li Xianglian's cheeks instantly turned red, like clouds illuminated by the sunset.

She lowered her eyes, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she used a little force with her hand to gently push Ye Beixuan away.

A thousand paper cranes quickly flew in front of the two of them. Li Xianglian stretched out her palm, and the paper crane landed lightly in her palm.

She slowly opened the paper crane and checked the contents inside. Her eyes changed and her expression became complicated.

"What's wrong?" Ye Beixuan asked softly.

Li Xianglian gritted her teeth and replied, "Master asked me to go back and discuss who should be sent to assist the Great Zhou in fighting against the Northern Liang."

Looking at her complicated expression, Ye Beixuan probably understood that she didn't want to go to Da Zhou to meet Emperor Zhou now. This was her inner demon. She felt that taking advantage of her situation was like betraying her sisters.

So he said softly, "It's okay! It's just a discussion, go ahead."

"Okay." Li Xianglian nodded slightly, turned around and left with a complicated expression.

Inside the inner hall of Tianji Pavilion.

A white-haired old woman was sitting at her desk, writing furiously. Her occasional coughing made people feel that she was about to die.

Li Xianglian slowly walked into the inner hall and called softly, "Master."

Chen Qianru didn't look up, but continued writing. As she wrote, she said in a low voice, "Did you go to see that gentleman? You had quite a bit of contact with him this time. Can you tell me what kind of person he is?"

Li Xianglian was stunned, and couldn't understand why her master and the others believed that he was a master. But then she thought about it, she had been in contact with him for such a long time, but it seemed that she knew very little about him and his past, including why he had such a high level of cultivation, literary talent, and musical attainments. It seemed that she really didn't know anything about him except love.

"I only know that he has a noble character and can stick to his heart," Li Xianglian replied softly, but instinctively added in her heart, "Except for that matter. He is really good at it. She seriously suspected that Ao Qin and him had tried it many times."

At this moment, Chen Qianru suddenly put down her pen and stared at Li Xianglian, which made her feel creepy and uncomfortable. The faint light in her eyes seemed to see through her.

a long time.

Chen Qianru sighed and said in a low voice: "I think too much"

Thinking of him being on the list, it was naturally destiny. How could such a man be seduced by beauty? Chen Qianru sighed. She wanted the Tianji Pavilion to rise so badly. Her time was running out. Li Xianglian hadn't grown up yet. Li Moran and Zhao Yunhai's revenge hadn't been avenged. She actually thought of using beauty to seduce him. It was really absurd. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but laugh at herself.

Li Xianglian looked at Chen Qianru, not knowing what she was thinking, but she could probably guess that her master must want the Tianji Pavilion to rise and must be thinking about revenge.

"Master, rest assured. I will definitely avenge Master Mo Ran and Master Zhao."

"I'm relieved that you're so kind." Chen Qianru looked at the things Zhao Yunhai had used and whispered, "Go down! Come to the main hall tomorrow and help me receive the visitors from the Dragon Palace."

"Yes." Li Xianglian was stunned, bowed slightly, bowed and retreated.

a long time.

Chen Qianru's consciousness seemed to have suddenly returned to her youth. In her memory, several people were playing and laughing. She didn't know when everyone started to change, and in the end they even turned swords against each other.

"Ah!" She sighed and murmured to herself in a low voice, "Brother, what should I do?"

The next day, early in the morning.

The main hall square, which was dominated by the three major sects, was filled with people, all eagerly waiting.

Suddenly, a ray of light slowly fell from the sky to the ground. The light rose from bottom to top and transformed into two figures, which were Ao Qin and Prime Minister Gui.

Chen Qianru smiled faintly and walked forward slowly, with the demeanor of an iron lady. Her voice was clear but respectful. She nodded slightly and said, "I respectfully welcome Princess Longgong and Prime Minister Gui to visit Tianji Pavilion. It is a great honor to meet you two today. The princess is extremely beautiful and the prime minister is extremely wise."

"We have both come together to discuss important matters. Please feel free to offer your guidance and discuss good strategies."

There was a hint of humility in her tone. After all, although Tianji Pavilion was now one of the three major sects, it had suffered a series of attacks and was already in tatters.

As soon as Chen Qianru finished speaking, Jintian and Huikong slowly walked forward from behind her, both with smiles on their faces.

Jintian spoke first, with a generous smile on his face and a refined tone:

"Aiya! Prime Minister Turtle, it's been many years since we last met. You are still as charming as ever!"

Huikong clasped his hands together and bowed slightly, his eyes filled with compassion and peace. "Amitabha, Prime Minister Turtle, Your Highness, I am honored to meet you."

Prime Minister Turtle stroked his long beard, his expression became kind and gentle, and he said with emotion:
"Brother Jintian, Master Huikong, it's been many years since we last met. You two are still as charming as ever. Time really flies!" Ao Qin smiled slightly, her demeanor graceful. She no longer had the frivolous look she had when she was with Ye Beixuan. She opened her red lips gracefully and said, "Since we are old friends, it is a rare opportunity for us to meet today. This princess also feels very close to you."

After the welcoming ceremony, Chen Qianru saw everyone bowing one by one, then stepped forward and raised her hand to signal:

"Everyone, today we are all planning something important, and we have gathered in Tianji Pavilion. This is fate. Please follow me to Tianji Hall to discuss this important matter."

After saying this, she gestured with her hand and turned to lead the way.

Jintian and Huikong followed closely behind, while Prime Minister Turtle and Princess Dragon Palace walked side by side. The group passed through a long ancient road with towering ancient trees on both sides, the fragrance of flowers in the air, white jade road surface, and guardrails also carved from white jade, which was pleasing to the eye.

Soon, everyone arrived at the door of the Tianji Hall.

The palace gate is tall, with carved beams and painted buildings, engraved with stars, which complements the architecture of Tianji Pavilion.

Chen Qianru walked to the door, slightly sideways, and gestured with her hand, "Everyone, please take a seat."

Prime Minister Turtle and Ao Qin just stepped inside.

The hall, which was a little dim just now, was suddenly brightly lit. The majestic and spacious hall was filled with tables and chairs on both sides. Tea and snacks were prepared on the tables, and the aroma was lingering in the air.

After everyone was seated, Chen Qianru slowly walked towards the main seat and stood before it with a solemn expression: "I have invited you all here today, presumably for the benefit of the people of this world."

Everyone's eyes were focused on Chen Qianru, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

Only Ao Qin kept looking around with the corner of her eyes, as if looking for something, and suddenly she saw a peerless figure.

Li Xianglian, who was next to Chen Qianru, seemed to sense something and instantly locked her gaze over. The moment their eyes met, a spark like thunder and fire appeared in the air.

However, due to the occasion, neither of them wanted to create too much conflict, and they both looked away at the same time.

"The List of Conferred Gods?" Prime Minister Turtle asked in a puzzled tone, "Excuse me, Pavilion Master Chen, what is this?"

Chen Qianru knew that Prime Minister Turtle would ask this question, so she just smiled faintly and said, "The meaning of this Conferred God List is..."

Then she recounted yesterday's events word for word, and Prime Minister Turtle was even more shocked. "What kind of person is this, with a list of titles on his head? I must meet him when I get a chance."

Ao Qin's mind was full of thoughts. Could this be what he meant by the Battle of the Gods about to begin?
"It's not that I, the Dragon Palace, don't believe what you say." Prime Minister Turtle stood up and bowed, "It's just that this matter is too unbelievable. I hope you can allow this expert to come and discuss it with us."

Old thing! Chen Qianru cursed inwardly, don't you just want to get to know him? Well, he's here today anyway, and this matter is not something I can take on alone.

So she whispered, "Xianglian, go and ask Mr. Ye to come over."

"Yes."

Ao Qin then took this opportunity to glance at Li Xianglian, and was secretly angry in his heart. The women this guy flirted with were more beautiful than each other.

But she herself forgot that she was the one who cut in line and provoked others, and now she acted like she was the eldest sister.

the other side.

Sleeping in is Ye Beixuan’s biggest hobby, nothing else. Others have already finished their work, but he is still sleeping.

Look, after Ye Xiaobei finished practicing sword in the yard, he began to wash his clothes carefully.

Suddenly, the light in front of his eyes changed. When he looked up, he saw that it was his master's wife Li Xianglian.

Looking at his master's wife wearing a light blue long dress and with beautiful features, he felt a little sad in his heart, which reminded him of his father and mother.

But he immediately realized that his master and his mistress would be his parents from now on. He wiped his hands, quickly stood up, and called out softly and sweetly, "Master's Wife! You're here! I'll go call the master!"

Li Xianglian smiled slightly and reached out to gently touch Ye Xiaobei's head. This child was really sensible. She said softly, "I can do it myself! You go and rest."

Ye Xiaobei nodded obediently and watched Li Xianglian walk lightly towards her master's room. He admired in his heart how gentle her master's wife was.

Li Xianglian gently pushed open the door, her lips curled up, a cunning and mischievous look flashed in her eyes, she crouched down and tiptoed over, bent down, lifted a strand of hair from her long hair, and gently brushed it across his nose.

Ye Beixuan was dreaming that he had achieved great success in cultivating the immortality and had become the Emperor Ye Tian, who was surrounded by beauties on both sides, when he suddenly felt an itch in his nose.

He frowned slightly and subconsciously swung out with his palm. He was suddenly startled and his eyes opened instantly. However, his pupils shrank and he quickly retracted his strength. In his haste, a little force still overflowed and his palm just happened to lightly hit her chest.

At the same time, because of the contraction of the palm, the palm also became soft, and the originally straight palm became slightly curved due to the force of the slap.

Li Xianglian was caught off guard, and felt an itch in her chest. She immediately let out a soft "hmm" sound, and her cheeks instantly flushed. She quickly took a step back, shielding her chest with both hands, glared at Ye Beixuan in anger, and whispered: "You...why are you like this right after waking up..."

Ye Beixuan exhaled a breath of foul air, feeling helpless and amused. You almost grew a size bigger just now.

He sat up, rubbed his still sleepy eyes, and said with a wry smile, "Xianglian, if I hadn't reacted quickly, you would have been sent flying right now."

Li Xianglian's face flushed even more when she heard this. She stamped her feet lightly in anger and said shyly, "Who told you not to get up?"

Seeing her shy look, Ye Beixuan's heart was moved. Recalling the feeling just now, he couldn't help but admire it in his heart, so soft.
He coughed lightly and said in a serious tone, "Okay, okay, it was my mistake. What brings you to me so early?"

Only then did Li Xianglian remember the purpose of her visit and almost forgot the main business.

Then, he said softly, "It's like this, Master asked me to invite you to the main hall."

Ye Beixuan stretched nonchalantly and said lazily, "Isn't it time yet?"

Li Xianglian rolled her eyes. This guy doesn't look like a master at all. Although she thought so in her heart, her eyes were full of tenderness.

Seeing that he was still delaying, she stretched out a slender jade finger, pushed Ye Beixuan's forehead, and urged softly: "Hurry up! Master and the others are waiting!"

Ye Beixuan slowly put on his clothes, washed up, and said, "I guess there must be a distinguished guest at Tianji Pavilion today! Otherwise, it would be unreasonable to call me so early."

Did they really believe my story from the Investiture of the Gods? That doesn't make sense! I was just saying it casually. It's fine this way, it saves me the trouble.

"Yeah." Li Xianglian seemed a little unhappy and said, "Indeed, two distinguished guests have come."

Sure enough, Ye Beixuan understood in his heart that this was a hope for him to continue to talk about the List of Conferred Gods to continue to shock the people in other immortal organizations. This would be good, as his team would continue to grow and the Conferred Gods War would begin, which would also be beneficial to him.

Hou Fangting is probably just a pawn, and there must be someone manipulating him behind the scenes, otherwise Li Jiuxiao would not have fallen so quickly. The more teams he has, the greater his chances of winning.

"Well, let's go without further ado!" Ye Beixuan said excitedly, and he was getting excited and impatient in his heart.

Li Xianglian looked slightly displeased when she saw this. "Great! Are you so happy that your old lover is here?"
On the way, the two walked side by side as usual. Ye Beixuan wanted to hold her hand, but she refused several times in a petty way, which made him confused. How did I offend her?

Soon, the two of them bumped into each other and arrived at the Tianji Hall. Li Xianglian led Ye Beixuan to the center of the hall.

Everyone from the various immortal palaces stood up to show their respect. Prime Minister Turtle was shocked. This, this, this, it turned out to be him. No wonder, no wonder!

Ao Qin blushed, but in order to maintain her image as the future majestic Queen of Dragon Palace, she forced herself to suppress her blush and looked at him "calmly" with her eyes.

Ye Beixuan's pupils shrank, and tens of thousands of horses were galloping in his heart. It turned out to be someone from the Dragon Palace. No wonder Li Xianglian had been acting like a spoiled child just now. Now he understood everything.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became silent.

As the host, Chen Qianru stood up and introduced, "Princess Ao, Prime Minister Gui, this is my Tianji Pavilion. Although Mr. Ye is usually not particular about trivial matters, he is extraordinary in strength and has a wide range of knowledge. It is truly a fate to meet you two today."

Li Xianglian's eyes moved between the man and the dragon. There was no special eye contact between the man and the dragon, but Li Xianglian always felt that the atmosphere between them was a little subtle.

Ye Beixuan stood there calmly with a smile on his face.

He raised his eyes to look at Ao Qin. Although her face looked normal, he noticed a faint blush at the base of her ears. He immediately understood that this girl was pretending to be calm.

Prime Minister Turtle, on the other hand, had a meaningful look on his face.

Seeing Ye Beixuan staring at him, Ao Qin could only nod slightly, his tone calm but still dignified: "Mr. Ye, I have heard of your great name for a long time."

Ye Beixuan raised the corner of his mouth and cupped his hands: "Thank you for the compliment, Princess."

Chen Qianru felt relieved when she saw the three of them being polite to each other. She smiled and said, "Since everyone knows each other, please come in, Mr. Ye."

There was a hint of pleading in Chen Qianru's eyes, and it was obvious that she wanted him to talk about the List of the Gods.
