After Crossing Through Ten Worlds, I Failed To Run Away - Chapter 28

[chapter 28]

In the blink of an eye, it had been a few days since Ji Ning came to Ying Qianqiu’s world. During these two days, the mighty team of Demon Lord finally arrived at their destination. It was a majestic palace built on the top of Cangshan Mountain. , the mountain is towering into the clouds, towering and dangerous, it is not only a desperate situation, but also a quiet place with excellent scenery.

After arriving at the Cangshan Palace, Ji Ning had fewer chances to see Ying Qianqiu. Ying Qianqiu was very busy and seemed to have to deal with a lot of things. Only the girl still seemed to have nothing to do and came to accompany Ji Ning.

“Last time we went to see the city lord of Tiandu City. The city lord intends to cooperate with us to bring down the last three branches of the twelfth aristocratic clan.” The

girl said to Ji Ning with a smile while eating the spirit fruit, “That’s right. Now , those three clans are about to end, as long as he’s not stupid, he should know who to follow is good, uh…”

Having said that, she tilted her head and looked at the boy, seeing that he looked confused, she immediately stopped Words: “Forget it, I won’t tell you this, it must be boring for you, and you probably don’t understand.”

Ji Ning blinked and gave her a small smile, in fact he could understand , but his current identity is a monster cub, of course he has to pretend he doesn’t understand.

And there is no need for him to remind anything. The cooperation between Ying Qianqiu and the city lord of Tiandu City is the plot in the original book. They jointly overthrew the last three families of the twelfth generation, and they will maintain a cooperative relationship in the future. They are reliable people, and there are no traps. .

In the past two days, Ji Ning pretended to be a child very happily. Apart from injecting inspiration into Qin Ruwang every day, there was no need for him to do anything. It was just that Ying Qianqiu would come over to see when he had time. When you need to cheer up a bit.

Judging from his situation now, it’s fairly safe, and Ying Qianqiu occasionally tests him, which means that although Ying Qianqiu has some doubts, he hasn’t been sure that he is Ji Ning.

He has already obtained the power and has passed the most dangerous period, and then he just needs to step by step and sneak in.

“Okay, it’s almost time to rest.”

The girl ate the last spirit fruit, clapped her hands, stood up, and said to Ji Ning, “Come on, continue cultivating profound energy.”

Ji Ning nodded, and following the girl’s instructions, she closed her eyes and meditated, trying her best to absorb the slightest faintness in the air. The profound energy gathered in his body.

In fact, he himself has profound energy, and he has cultivated to a certain level, which is much higher than the girl, but he can restrain his profound energy as much as possible. He has no knowledge of the cultivation base, just treats him as having no foundation and patiently teaches from the beginning.

Because he had practiced before and knew the normal speed of cultivation, Ji Ning deliberately adjusted his speed to be very fast, but it was within the normal range. The girl was surprised by his talent, but she would not doubt it.

On the one hand, he did this to let the girl take out the corpse refining picture book as soon as possible to refine the death energy for Qin Ruwang, and on the other hand, after accumulating profound energy to a certain extent, he could transform into a youthful body in a fair and bright manner. Appearance, he is still a little difficult to adapt to.

After eating more shape-changing pills and absorbing profound energy, Ji Ning finally fixed himself as a boy, which was still different from his original appearance, and changed his voice a bit.

Looking down at his slender fingers, he was very satisfied. After all, a child’s hand is too soft and too small to hold even chopsticks.

“It’s not bad…” The

girl circled around Ji Ning, who looked like a teenager, and praised with tsk tsk.

The young man was dressed in white, with a very slender waistline and well-proportioned limbs, long black hair falling down, and a very white complexion. Even though he was wearing a half-mask, he could still see that he had a handsome face and was quite a beautiful young man.

The only pity is that Xue Tuan still refuses to take off the mask…

She rubbed her chin, and suddenly began to wonder if the boy’s aesthetics were crooked. Although she was very good-looking, she wanted to think that she was ugly.

The girl decided to correct Ji Ning’s aesthetics in the future, but now she has more important things to do. She clapped her hands happily, and said happily, “Since you have reached this point in your practice, we can start refining Qin Ruwang.

” She summoned the maids and told them to inform Ying Qianqiu.

She thinks that the boy is an immature snow beast cub who doesn’t know the language, let alone the exercises, so she has been working hard on the picture book and asked Ying Qianqiu many questions. The purpose is to help the young man refine this murderous corpse, so that he can become a great help for the young man.

This is the first time they have tried corpse refining. Although the steps are not complicated, the girl thinks she is fully prepared, but because the corpse is different from the ordinary corpse, she is still uneasy, so she has to agree with Qianqiu and invite him to come Sit in person to avoid accidents.

In this regard, she has already greeted Ying Qianqiu in advance, and asked him to push aside other matters and come to guard.

After the maid left, Ying Qianqiu came to her palace shortly after, and sat on the side, his eyes stayed on the boy for a moment, then turned to the girl and nodded slightly to her, indicating that she could start.

“Come on, Yingxue, I’ll teach you how to refine it.” The

girl beckoned to Ji Ning and taught him basic formulas and fingerings.

The corpse training method itself is not complicated. As long as you run the profound energy according to the fingering method, press your fingertips on the life gate of the corpse to inject the profound energy, walk around the corpse, absorb the dead energy, and slowly replace the filling with the profound energy. corpse refining.

Naturally, this is only the most superficial technique, but with the young man’s current cultivation, he can only do this, and because his profound energy is too weak, after research, the girl feels that his profound energy is not enough to walk through the gate of life whole body, but requires another special approach.

I hope he can accept it…

The girl muttered in her heart and said to Ji Ning, “I said just now that profound energy should enter through Qin Ruwang’s gate of life, but your profound energy is not enough, so you have to change your position.”

As she said that, she pointed to Qin Ruwang’s bloodless lips: “If you want, you can stick to his mouth and inject profound energy into his body by breathing.” She was afraid that the young man would not understand, so it was popular. “It was you who kissed him with profound energy—”

“No.”

However, before Ji Ning could answer, Ying Qianqiu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly opened his mouth, and his light eyes swept across the girl. , but made the girl tremble, and suddenly felt a very dangerous feeling.

“This method has never been recorded in the picture book. If you try it out rashly, it may change.” The

silver-haired devil said indifferently, stepped forward and grabbed Ji Ning’s wrist, and a pure and mighty profound energy slowly poured into it, enriching Ji Ning. of mystery.

“I’ll help you.” He looked down at Ji Ning, “You can try refining him.”

“Thank you, Qianqiu.”

Ji Ning blinked, transforming Ying Qianqiu’s profound energy into her own strength , hold down Qin Ruwang’s life gate, and refine the death energy in his body.

The endless profound energy was transformed, and Qin Ruwang’s dark pupils had a glimmer of light. After the refining was over, he looked at Ji Ning, lowered his head and said, “Thank you, Master.”

He His sanity had clearly recovered. Ji Ning was happy and smiled at him, but suddenly felt that the fingers of Ying Qianqiu’s wrist tightened a bit.

“Qianqiu?”

Ji Ning gave him a puzzled look, Ying Qianqiu quickly let go of his hand and said, “If you want to refine a murderous corpse, you can ask someone to tell me, if I have nothing to do, I will come. Do n’t use the breath refining method.” After

speaking, he looked at the girl again, the girl had been keenly aware that Ying Qianqiu seemed to be faintly angry, and was about to sneak away quietly, but was nailed to the original by his icy voice. land.

“Stop.” The

girl’s body froze, although she didn’t know how she had provoked Ying Qianqiu, but her instinctive sense of crisis made her quickly show a pleasing smile, and turned back timidly: “Qianqiu…”

“You go to the Gongfa Pavilion to copy the book for three days.” Ying Qianqiu said, “Yingxue will be taught by me in the future.”

“But—”

“You can leave.” The silver-haired devil ignored the girl’s sad face, Look indifferent.

“I see…” The

girl was so depressed that her ears fell down, and she left the palace weakly.

Ji Ning was a little confused. He didn’t understand why he suddenly punished the girl. He was secretly guessing what the reason was. Ying Qianqiu said, “It’s too dangerous to change the exercises privately, so she should learn the lesson.”

What a pity…

Ji Ning I silently said sorry to the girl in my heart, after all, she was punished for him, but if this matter is really dangerous, it would be right for her to remember it well.

But what did Qianqiu say just now? Do you want to teach him the exercises in person?

He was slightly startled, looked up at Ying Qianqiu subconsciously, and saw the latter nodded lightly at him, and said, “Tomorrow morning, come to me, and I will teach you the exercises.”

Facing his gaze, Ji Ji Ning felt the pressure doubled. If he got along with Ying Qianqiu every day, the chance of him being seen through would be even greater.

But now he has no reason not to agree, no matter how bitter his heart is, he can still smile and answer cheerfully, “Okay, thank you Qianqiu!” The

next day, Ji Ning brought Qin Ruwang to Ying Qianqiu.

A few days ago, perhaps because he had just returned to Cangshan, he had piled up a lot of things waiting for Ying Qianqiu to decide, which made him very busy and disappeared, but now the affairs have been handled cleanly. Today, Ying Qianqiu has been with Ji Ning all day. Teach him basic exercises.

Ji Ning was a little unsure about what speed she should cultivate at. Unlike a young girl, Ying Qianqiu’s cultivation base was extremely high and her eyesight was quite formidable, so Ji Ning was worried that he would not see that she had cultivated before.

Fortunately, one day passed, Ying Qianqiu didn’t question anything, just expressed a faint praise to Ji Ning’s talent.

After the practice, Ji Ning thought he could be freed, but just when he wanted to leave, a waitress walked in and respectfully replied to Ying Qianqiu, “Honored lord, the medicinal bath is ready.”

Ying Qianqiu nodded and glanced at Ji Ning: “Follow me.”

Ji Ning took Qin Ruwang and followed behind him to a quiet and beautiful place outside the palace. There are several beautiful palace lanterns, the lights are dim, and a pool of warm spring water can be faintly seen, emitting white mist.

In addition to the faint sulfur smell of the hot spring, the air is also mixed with the aroma of medicinal herbs. If you look closely at the water surface of the hot spring, you can see that there are many medicinal herbs in it.

Ying Qianqiu stood beside the hot spring, pointed to the water, and said to Ji Ning, “This is a bone-forging medicinal bath. It can help you keep fit. You can go into the water and soak for half an hour.”

Ji Ning nodded obediently. At the same time, you should also exercise your muscles and bones, otherwise your body will not be able to bear it.

However, in front of Qin Ruwang and Ying Qianqiu, he did not intend to take off his clothes, and after taking the transformation pill, he could no longer return to his original shape at will, so he simply wore the white clothes on his body and walked directly into the hot spring. .

Ying Qianqiu was noncommittal about this, just stood quietly by the water, watching the young man in the hot spring, Qin Ruwang saw Ji Ning walking into the water, and initially wanted to go in with him, but after being stopped by Ji Ning, he stayed behind. On the shore, guard together.

The soaking was a little dizzy…

The hot spring water was hot, and in the curling white air, Ji Ning’s face quickly flushed with blush, the mask condensed with water droplets, and there was also a thin sweat on the forehead. leaning against the shore.

Ying Qianqiu saw the fact that he couldn’t bear the strength of the medicine and the heat of the spring water, but he didn’t make a sound. After waiting for half an hour, he finally leaned down, stretched out his hand to Ji Ning, and said, “Come up. Ji Ning took his hand and staggered to the

shore. Her thin white clothes were soaked through by the spring water. The hem of her clothes dripped with drops of water. body lines.

He was dizzy, his feet were weak, and his body fell forward, but suddenly fell into the warm embrace. In addition to the medicinal fragrance, what lingered in Ying Qianqiu’s body was the cold, snow-like aura.

“I’m sorry…”

Knowing that she was caught by Ying Qianqiu, Ji Ning said in a daze, vaguely seeing that her beautiful silver hair was already soaked by the water on her body, she couldn’t help feeling a little ashamed, trying her best to try Get up.

But his back was gently pressed by a hand, Ying Qianqiu hugged him in his arms, instead of letting him get up, he tightened his arms.

His handsome face was a little unreal in the mist, his eyelashes were drooping, his eyes were deep and dark, and he was silent, staring at the boy in his arms.

“…Qianqiu?”

Ji Ning put her hand on his arm, her reaction was a little slow, and she looked up into his eyes.

Ying Qianqiu didn’t answer, suddenly raised his hand to caress Ji Ning’s cheek, his fingertips touched the cold mask, and it seemed that it was about to be gently removed in the next moment –

a pale hand suddenly blocked Ying Qianqiu’s hand, preventing his He moved and pulled Ji Ning into his arms.

Qin Ruwang half hugged and half caressed Ji Ning, looked at Ying Qianqiu expressionlessly, and said, “He doesn’t want to show his true face.”

“…”

Ying Qianqiu slowly put down his hand without saying a word.

“I’m sorry, Qianqiu, I’ll go back first.”

Qin Ruwang’s icy body temperature made Jining suddenly sober a lot, he smiled at Ying Qianqiu, and Qin Ruwang helped him leave the place.

The silver-haired man didn’t stop them from leaving, he just looked at the boy’s back and tightened his fingers slightly.

In fact, he knew that the face under the mask was not what he wanted to see. He had already noticed that the face was covered up by some means, and it was not the real appearance.

Just looking at the person he was thinking about day and night was in his arms, he still had a hint of gaffe.

In the past few days, he tried his best to maintain his normal state, pretending that he was still doubting the identity of the young man, and made several concealed temptations in order to keep the illusion and prevent the young man from realizing that he had confirmed that he was Xiao Xiao.

He can’t fall short.

It’s just… he can’t confirm how long he can endure.

…

Qin Ruwang helped Ji Ning to go to the palace where he lived. On the way, he met many servants who seemed to want to help, but they were afraid of the corpse, and Qin Ruwang was a stranger again. Not getting too close, they all stopped and walked hurriedly with their heads lowered.

Along the way, Ji Ning has woken up quite a bit and can walk on her own. He patted the back of Qin Ruwang’s hand, indicating that he could let go of himself, but he didn’t expect Qin Ruwang to just glance at him, then unexpectedly stretched out his hands, wrapped his arms around Ji Ning’s back and the crook of his legs, and hit him. Hugged.

“Ruwang?” The

body suddenly lightened, Ji Ning was startled, and immediately hugged Qin Ruwang’s neck and looked at him in surprise.

“You’re tired, I’ll take you back.”

Qin Ruwang replied, carrying Ji Ning all the way back to the palace, gently placing him on the soft couch, and placing his hand on his soaked shirt: “I serve Change your clothes.”

“No need.” Ji Ning quickly pushed Qin Ruwang’s hand away, shook his head and said, “I’ll do it myself.”

He pinched the magic of the world of self-cultivation, and quickly dried his wet clothes and hair. , and plan to take a bath later.

Qin Ruwang watched his actions and remained silent for a long time, then asked in a low voice, “Master, are you closer to him or closer to me?”

“…” Ji Ning looked at him in surprise, not expecting that he would Such questions will be asked.

Could it be that he is… jealous?

He suddenly found that Qin Ruwang’s recovery was much faster than he thought.

Seeing that he didn’t answer, Qin Ru didn’t continue to ask, but leaned forward, took off his mask, stroked his cheek, and said, “I want to see the original appearance of the master.” No one was watching, but he complied with Qin Ruwang’s request, wiped away his inspiration, and revealed his true appearance.

Qin Ruwang stared at his graceful face, and suddenly curled the corners of his lips, his handsome and elegant eyebrows smiled, and instantly became vivid.

“I won’t hurt you.”

With a smile in his eyes, he pressed his lips to Ji Ning’s, kissed gently, and whispered at the same time.

“I also asked the master to refine me with the method of breathing.”

Ji Ning was startled, but before he could refuse, Qin Ruwang stroked his shoulders, gently pressed him down on the soft couch, and asked him for it with a cold kiss. Profound energy.

Was he recovering too fast…?

Ji Ning couldn’t help but think so.

…

When most of the profound energy in his body was drained, Qin Ruwang finally let go of Ji Ning and apologized for his rudeness.

If I was really sorry, this wouldn’t have happened.

Ji Ning looked at the young monarch who was bowing his head to her. She was silent for a while, but she didn’t say anything. After taking a bath, she lay down on the bed and quickly fell asleep.

Before falling asleep, he vaguely remembered that when he explained the refining method, the girl mentioned the disadvantages of corpse refining. One of them was that refining would absorb the dead energy of the corpse, which might lead to nightmares at night. I’m not afraid, but I also hope that I don’t dream of too scary things.

Then he fell asleep, and he was not conscious in the dream. He didn’t know that he was dreaming, but he did dream something bad.

The dark night sky, the streets with the heavy drizzle, there are no pedestrians on the streets, the doors of the shops on both sides are closed, only a glass window reveals a dim light, and the wind chimes under the eaves are jingling, making bursts of crisp sounds. .

…Why does this place seem familiar?

With doubts, Ji Ning raised his hand to block the raindrops falling in front of him, and walked towards the shop where there was only light. Outside the shop, he saw the old sign above, which was a grocery store.

The door of the store was not closed, and the gramophone placed in the corner sent out a gentle singing, ethereal and illusory, as if stepping into this door, you would be lost forever inside.

Ji Ning stepped back for a moment, feeling bad in his heart, but this shop seemed to have magic power, he couldn’t control himself, so he just walked in.

Under the ambiguous orange light, a young man in a white shirt stood behind the counter, lowered his head and couldn’t see his face clearly, holding a silver spoon in his slender fingers, stirring the hot coffee in the cup, and following the singing happily. Humming a tune.

Hearing the footsteps, he raised his head, showing beautiful and affectionate brows, smiled at Ji Ning, and said with a smile, “You’re here.”

It was Huo Wuling!

Suddenly seeing Huo Wuling without any warning, even in a dream, Ji Ning was horrified and suddenly remembered that he had indeed seen this place before.

Not long ago, in another world, he saw Huo Wuling in the mirror, and then pulled into this space. At that time, he also met Huo Wuling in this grocery store and was almost killed. Death was brought to the world where Huo Wuling was.

“Ning Ning, are you so afraid of me?”

Huo Wuling at the counter tilted his face, tilted his head, and laughed suddenly. Ji Ning ran away and rushed into the street, but it seemed that he hit hard. When something was on, his forehead hurt, and then he suddenly woke up from the dream.

“Ha…haha…”

When he opened his eyes and saw the curtain in front of him, Ji Ning gasped heavily and sat up from the bed, still in shock.

The lights in the palace were very dark, so Ji Ning looked around by candlelight. Everything was the same as before, and there was no abnormality, so he was relieved.

Just had a nightmare?

He wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and deeply felt the horror of corpse refining. This nightmare was so realistic that it really scared him.

But after calming down for a while, Ji Ning felt that something was wrong, and suddenly realized that Qin Ruwang was not by his side, and Qin Ruwang would always be there when he was sleeping.

“Ruwang?”

He lifted the quilt, stepped on the cold ground with bare feet, and checked it carefully in the palace, but there was really no Qin Ruwang.

“Are you looking for me?”

Suddenly there was a chuckle from behind Ji Ning, he was startled, and when he looked back, he saw Huo Wuling lying on his side on his bed, with one hand supporting his head and the other rushing towards him. He waved and said with a smile.

“Good evening, Ningning.”
