The two Elder Xiongs entered the pavilion and placed the mirror on the table.
Yin Li sat down, and recited the spell to the mirror, after a wave of ripples, Yin Feilian, who was struggling with the memorials to the Empress, came into view. The expression she had at first was helpless as if her spirit was severely devastated.
Seeing that the person in the mirror is her long-lost baby boy, her eyes instantly recovered, and she cried tears of joy holding the mirror: “A-Li, A-Niang misses you. In the days when you were not here, A-Niang was miserable!”
Everyone says that being an emperor is good, but for the people of the Xiyin imperial family, being an emperor is the most boring thing in the world. Every day was holding court, reading and commenting on memorials to the Emperor, being busy until you’re dizzy, feet not touching the ground. Governing a country was really not a high-end, elegant, and classy, extremely interesting, and challenging affair. Often it’s inquiring after trivial interests/benefits, bickering back and forth while you strive to stop any fight.
If you do more, people’s life will be better, you do less, the people will suffer. If you want to be free, you will find a reason to “hang your robe and rule”(1), and push it to the ministers. But who can guarantee that all of them are as clean and fair as the Xiyin imperial family and that they regard power as dung?
The longer a cultivator lives, the higher and deeper the cultivation, the more transcendence the state of mind is, and the less patience they have for the trivial things of the world. Just like a high-educated Ph.D. student, his life experiences and knowledge reserve has been completed. The next step is to enter the institute, retreat and study his own “great truth”, but he has to become a kindergarten teacher because of worldly ties. Taking care of the food and drink of a group of giant babies.
It is neither impossible nor bad, but a waste of time and mental torture that cannot be detached.
But if the Yins do not firmly occupy the throne and dominate the region, how can they obtain the rich Xiyin Lingshi reserves. If there is no Lingshi, how can you talk about cultivation? All nature has to pay to obtain gains.
This is the reason why though Yin Li was a junior but he was consistently favored and embraced by everyone in the imperial family. He worked diligently to feed the entire Xiyin imperial family.
The one who makes money to support the family is the boss!
Yin Li looked at his mother’s appearance and was quite distressed: “Why won’t father help you?”
Yin Feilian sighed: “Don’t mention it, he can’t even protect himself, your ancestors tied Dongyue’s old thief, but he refused to say the whereabouts of Zhuxian sword. The old ancestors were impatient and gave the matter of questioning him to your father.”
The mother and son talked for a while and exchanged information on each other’s situation. Yin Li was relieved to learn that the immortal reincarnation mirror did not vent its anger on the imperial family, and was quite relieved “You transferred the reincarnation mirror to another treasure-house, isn’t it suspicious?”
Yin Feilian pouted: “To reflect its nobility, we have built a unique treasure house for it. It’s too late for it to willingly give it back.”
Instrument spirit, in the end, has an instrument spirit’s view, its tolerance can’t be compared to mankind’s
Yin Li nodded: “That’s good, we can immediately go home with the transmission fulu.”
The transmission fulu has a fixed transmission location. If it is not properly positioned, it is very likely to be accidentally transferred to a brick and clay. The destination of Yang Huiyan’s transmission fulu is Xiyin Palace, which is the main reason for Yin Li’s delay.
Yin Feilian quickly said: “You don’t come back first. Who knows if the damned xianqi is still crazy? The Elder Xiongs have a few transmission fulu sent by the ancestors, you should stay outside and avoid it.”
Although if her baby boy came back, the burden on her shoulders will be immediately relieved, but out of consideration for his safety, it is better to stay away from the Xiyin Palace temporarily. Who knows if the xianqi with its eye above its head(2) will flip out again.
Yin Li frowned: “What happened?”
Yin Feilian glanced at the Yang Huiyan behind him: “This matter xiao yanyan is aware of; that the descendant of the venerable demon is now born and people from all corners of the world irrespective of the type of cultivation are risking their lives to catch her hoping to get from her mouth the place where the venerable blood sea demon hid her treasures.”
Yang Huiyan whispered: “There is also the hall of darkness xianqi in the hands of the blood sea demon, we have to find a way to get it.”
Originally, it was to prolong the life and cultivation of Yin Li, but now there is another reason which is to restrain the threat of the reincarnation mirror to the xi yin imperial family.
The zhuxian sword, the hall of darkness, even Beifeng’s life and death book; the xi yin imperial family will not let off any of them.
Thinking of the green-robed female devil cultivator who he had met once, Yin Li thought: “Unexpectedly, her existence was exposed so quickly …”
He always felt that something is wrong, but his current information is too small, so he cannot make accurate inferences.
Yin Feilian said: “Now the second prince of Beifeng have caught the descendant of the venerable blood sea demon. We have already sent people to negotiate, and the second prince has agreed to let us enter the treasure place of the blood sea demon.”
This exchange of interest, even not if not elaborated, Yin Li understands: “Do you want me to go with Yang Huiyan?”
Yin Feilian nodded: “We will send fifty ghost cultivating guards to follow you. At a critical moment, you can also use the transmission fulu to directly summon several ancestors.”
Yin Li pondered for a while and slowly nodded
Yin Feilian secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone in the family knew that Yin Li was kind-hearted and was afraid that he would not agree to this plan of killing to get a treasure. In some ways, it is necessary to thank the threat of the reincarnation mirror Xianqi which brought out Yin Li’s killing spirit.
As long as Yin Li was convinced, no difficulty or obstacle is capable of stopping him.
After the agreement was reached, Yin Li went out to clean up the pavilion’s magic weapon and lift the peripheral defensive array, and Yang Huiyan walked towards the one-eyed ghost with a smile, actually, saying he’s a ghost with bad luck is more appropriate.
The one-eyed ghost was tied up again by several ghost soldiers, and one of the ghost soldiers pulled out his waist knife, gesturing to cut his head. The one-eyed reproached Hong Qitao’s untrustworthiness unwillingly, but looking at the falling blade and he could only close his eyes in despair.
This time his soul will really scatter
However, the expected pain of the cut head did not arrive. There was a clang sound, and a delicate lotus lamp blocked the waist knife of the ghost soldier.
The one-eyed ghost opened his eyes and stared blankly at Yang Huiyan in front of him.
Yang Huiyan said to the ghost soldiers: “go to General Hong and report that this ghost has been handed to me.
A few ghost soldiers looked at each other and went to ask Hong Qitao. Hong Qitao knew Yang Huiyan’s identity and nodded in agreement. Anyway, but it was nothing but a mountain bandit, it wasn’t worth mentioning.
Yang Huiyan held his chest with one hand and rested his chin on the other, and looked at the one-eyed ghost with a smile: “Ghost brother, were you from Beifeng Kingdom in your life?”
Except in front of Yin Li, on many other occasions, when Yang Huiyan smiles sweetly, it is far more terrifying than when he has no expression. This point, his subordinates feel deeply.
The one-eyed ghost climbed up from the ground with difficulty. Out of inexplicable self-esteem, he was not willing to show an embarrassing appearance in front of this evil lamp, and said roughly: “How do you know?”
“Listening to your accent.” Yang Huiyan’s voice was soft, and no specific emotion could be heard. “I was originally from Beifeng.”
The one-eyed ghost was a little surprised. Now he also knew the identities of Yin Li and Yang Huiyan: “Why are you in Xi Yin?”
Yang Huiyan lowered his eyes, admiring his fingernails dyed with carmine, and said lightly: “When I was young, my family was poor. I couldn’t live in Beifeng, so I had to escape to Xiyin.”
The one-eyed ghost was silent for a moment, he met his fellow villagers and his eyes were tearful. Although he did not trust the evil lamp, his resistance to him was reduced.
Beifeng was located in the bitter cold region of the Xuanyuan continent, with formidable folk customs and rampant bandits. Especially in the past millennium, they indeed complied with the phrase “The emperor is done in turns, this year it will be my family’s(3)” as almost every ten years or so, the person on the throne will change.
Frequent regime changes have led to successive years of war in the country, and there is simply no time to cultivate and nourish it.
The people live in dire poverty and starving people are everywhere.
This was why the one-eyed ghost and his soldiers had no sense of honor as soldiers, and they easily fell into being pirates. In Beifeng, the soldiers and robbers are both filthy and have a symbiotic relationship.
Yang Huiyan didn’t want to talk to the one-eyed ghost. He didn’t come to talk to the fellow. He took out dozens of inferior Lingshi from his arms and threw them to the one-eyed ghost.
The one-eyed ghost was shocked: “This…”
There was no free lunch in the world. He stared at Yang Huiyan, and his voice was hoarse: “What do you mean?”
Yang Huiyan showed his usual charming smile: “Buy this ghost!”
The one-eyed ghost understood what he meant and his face was complicated: “You killed so many of my brothers…”
Yang Huiyan looked at him, smiled, and did not speak.
The one-eyed ghost held the Lingshi, and the blue veins in his hand burst out: “This Lingshi …is not enough!”
Yang Shiyan did not say anything, and he took out sixty or seventy pieces of inferior Lingshi and threw them carelessly
The one-eyed ghost’s eyes were blood red, panting: “…”
Yang Huiyan’s expression was a bit cold, and he took out the empty bag of Lingshi and threw it on the ground.
The one-eyed ghost fell on the ground, picked up the scattered Lingshi tremblingly, and packed it into the bag at the fastest speed as if fearing it would be robbed.
Yang Huiyan looked at him coldly: “Is it possible to make a master-servant contract?”
The one-eyed ghost squeezed the bag of Lingshi tightly with both hands, staring at Yang Huiyan for a while, his legs were like lead, and every step of movement seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.
However, he finally walked in front of Yang Huiyan and knelt down on his knees, saying slowly: “… Master!”
Yang Huiyan bit his finger and quickly used his own blood to draw a spell on the one-eyed ghost’s forehead. The one-eyed ghost fell to the ground as if he was being dismembered, and his body twitched continuously in pain.
The more unwilling to be enslaved in a master-servant contract, the more the tortured slave will suffer.
At the end of the ceremony, the one-eyed ghost was almost half dead.
Yang Huiyan looked at him indifferently without any fluctuation in his heart. He still remembers that when he and Yin Li made the contract between master and servant, his heart was just stabbed with a needle. He didn’t notice any change at all, and the ceremony ended.
He didn’t need the loyalty of others, and he didn’t need the emotional attachment of others
