Chapter 324: Secret Forest 2
Xuan Qing shouted, "Ten thousand swords return to the sect!"
However, he was surprised to find that the formation suddenly became ineffective.
At this moment, a wisp of green smoke suddenly floated down from the sky and gradually condensed into a human shape. The person who came was the girl in green gauze.
At this moment, she was standing in the air, looking into Xuanqing's eyes on the ground, with a hint of inexplicable meaning in her eyes.
Xuan Qing quickly raised the peach wood sword in his hand, and pointed the tip of the sword directly at the girl in green gauze.
His face was full of shock: "You are not dead?"
Before he finished speaking, the vengeful spirits in the sky began to stir and gradually merged into a huge human figure.
The human figure stood high in the sky, staring at Xuanqing below with fierce eyes, as if he would attack at any time.
However, at this moment, the woman in green gauze gently raised her hand, her face calm and indifferent, and uttered a word: "Back off."
The huge human figure actually obeyed her order, slowly hiding in the ancient tree next to it, and disappeared without a trace.
Xuan Qing looked up at her, his eyes filled with curiosity and confusion: "You're not a demon? Then who are you?"
The girl smiled slightly, her eyes softening. "Congratulations, monk, for passing the first round of trials."
Xuan Qing was puzzled when he heard this: "Is the test to not be bewitched by you and to kill you?"
The girl in green gauze nodded slightly and said, "Half of the answer is correct."
She continued, "I see that you are in such a strange place, yet you remain calm and composed, with good intentions in your heart, and are even willing to use your own cultivation to convert these resentful spirits.
Unfortunately, these vengeful spirits have long been tamed by me and they only obey my orders."
At this point, the eyes of the girl in green gauze became deep, as if she was thinking about some important decision.
Xuanqing looked at her quietly, waiting for her next words.
The girl in green clothes slowly descended from the air like a light feather and stood in front of Xuanqing.
She put on an extremely charming look, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.
Said: "It is truly admirable that the Taoist priest could stare at me for such a long time without even a single distracting thought in his mind."
Xuan Qing's face remained calm as water when he heard this.
He replied calmly, "My mind has long been free of distractions, my six senses are pure, and nothing in the outside world can shake my heart."
Hearing this, the young girl in green gauze gently twisted her waist and said with a charming smile: "The Taoist's sword just now...
Although it only pierced my illusion, in my opinion, it also pierced my body.
Now, I will let you experience the feeling of breaking your vows."
As she spoke, she approached Xuanqing step by step.
Xuan Qing's hand, tightly gripping the peach wood sword, couldn't help but tremble slightly. He forced himself to remain calm and said, "You...don't slander me. I only stabbed you with the sword. How can you call that a loss of virginity?"
Seeing him like this, the girl in green gauze had a hint of teasing in her eyes.
He jokingly said, "How come the Taoist priest can't even hold the sword steady now?"
Then, she sighed softly, a helpless look on her face: "I am helpless too, after all, your trial is not over yet.
Let me take a good look at your heart to see if you have any of those terrible demons."
Xuan Qing lowered his head and muttered to himself: "Inner demon..."
He quickly raised his head and said firmly, "I am a man of the righteous path. How could I easily give rise to a demon in my heart?"
At this moment, the green-shirted girl's hand suddenly turned into a thick vine, tightly wrapping around Xuanqing's body.
The pair of green eyes stared at him, and a green light suddenly shot into his forehead and wandered freely in his sea of consciousness.
Xuanqing's heart moved, he loosened his right hand, and the sword in his hand began to fall.
At this moment, he seemed to have lost his mind.
After a moment, the green light slowly withdrew from her forehead and returned to the eyes of the woman in green.
……
The two looked at each other and the scene changed.
Xuan Qing frowned, the girl in front of him was so similar to the person he had hidden in his heart.
The person was wearing a white Taoist robe and had bright blue eyes. At this moment, he stood in front of him gracefully.
He asked with concern: "Xuanqing, are you okay?"
Xuan Qing was slightly stunned. Looking at Xu Wan in front of him, he shook his head and replied, "I'm fine."
Xu Wan's eyes were as sharp as torches as she scanned the surroundings, and finally her gaze fell on a long sword lying quietly on the ground beside her.
She bent down slightly, with an elegant and light posture, to pick up the peach wood sword.
The moment he bent down moved Xuanqing's heart, as if he was touched by some inexplicable emotion.
Xu Wan stood up straight, holding the peach wood sword tightly in his hand.
She directly took Xuanqing's hand and handed him the sword.
He said with a gentle but firm look: "This peach wood sword is the gift I gave you as your disciple.
How could you just leave it like that?"
Xuan Qing took the long sword and put it into the scabbard behind his back, looking at Xu Wan affectionately.
He whispered, "I have always carried the sword you gave me."
Suddenly, Xuanqing frowned and touched his forehead.
He said with confusion on his face: “I don’t know why this sword is on the ground.
I only remember that I entered the mirror gate in the trial platform and then came to this forest.
Then I heard crying and a tree demon appeared. I pierced her body with my sword.
She was horrified...
And then you showed up.”
Xu Wan listened to his words with a gleam of admiration in her eyes.
She praised: "Xuanqing, you are really amazing."
As she spoke, she reached out her hand to touch Xuanqing's face.
Xuanqing turned his head away and didn't look at her.
His heart was in turmoil, as if troubled by some emotion.
He tried hard to suppress his emotions and refused: "Jinglian, no."
Xu Wan chuckled and said, "You are such a fool.
In this secret forest, who knows what we have done?"
Upon hearing this, Xuanqing turned around and looked directly at Xu Wan, staring into her blue eyes.
Those eyes seemed to have magic, and he couldn't look away.
With a smile in his eyes, he said softly, "Jinglian, I'm really happy that you can come to this trial ground to find me."
As he spoke, he covered his eyes and stopped looking at her, trying hard to suppress his inner emotions and not let them show.
at the same time.
Lingshan Square.
On the high platform, Chen Xuan and others sat majestically.
Their eyes were fixed intently on the mysterious mirror door on the trial platform in the center of the square.
The image inside the mirror door is clearly visible, as if presenting the scene of another world before your eyes.
Chen Xuan shook his head slightly and sighed helplessly.
At this moment, Yun Che, who was standing beside him, had a look of amusement on his face.
He picked up the teacup beside him, shook it gently, and then blew on it, but did not drink the tea.
Then he began to sneer: "Oh, you can't even tell a fake.
I have learned the Dao in vain..."
Chen Xuan heard this and gently patted Yun Che's shoulder.
He advised earnestly: "Yun Che,
It is wrong for Taoist Xuanqing to have distracting thoughts.
But he also tried hard to restrain himself and didn't really take away your love."
Upon hearing this, Yun Che simply shrugged and said coldly, “What a Xuanqing! You want both…”
