Chapter 230: Ambiguity with "Empress"
Seeing that Lady Qingyi remained silent, Taizhen's eyes lit up with a strange light.
"Sister, if you really like it, why don't you try to accept it? If you can't live as you wish, what kind of immortal are you?"
Taizhen advised.
At the same time, she was a little curious. She wondered what it would be like if her sister, who was as pure as the bright moon, fell in love.
It's really something to look forward to...
Lady Qingyi glanced at her and said calmly, "Love between men and women is nothing but a little love. You and I have cultivated to this point and have our own ways. How could we indulge in little love?"
Taizhen nodded in agreement.
When one reaches their level of cultivation, they will only put their own path first.
Taizhen values detachment, follows her heart, and lives a free and easy life. If she is moved, she will love openly, but if she is tired of it, she will cut off her feelings without hesitation.
In other words, people who have cultivated to the Yang Shen realm and above are definitely not the infatuated men and women in the mortal world, and they cannot be viewed with ordinary eyes.
"Then sister, what is the path you are pursuing?"
Taizhen asked suddenly.
The eyes of the lady in green gradually became profound, as if she had seen through the vicissitudes of time, passed through the mist of history, and crossed the gap between yin and yang.
"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva once said that he would not attain Buddhahood until hell is empty."
"However, there are too many sins in the world: war, killing, greed, lust, disease, hatred..."
There was a look of compassion in the eyes of the lady in green as she recalled the tragic scenes she had witnessed.
In years of great famine, some people even exchanged their own children for food.
The plague was spreading, and the roadsides were littered with sick bones.
Swords of war and horses, blood dyed the rivers red.
Widows, widowers and widowers are lonely and suffer the remaining years of their lives in wind and snow.
The bride leaned against the door, waiting for the person to bury her bones.
The old mother lit a lamp at night to make funeral clothes for her son.
These were the scenes that Lady Qingyi had witnessed with her own eyes. She was a kind-hearted person, otherwise she would not have chosen to burn herself to death in order to save the people of Yuzhang City.
However, what she didn't expect was that as a ghost, she would see more suffering in the world.
"I will not attain Buddhahood until hell is empty..."
The Green-robed Lady sighed softly and said, "It is not important whether or not one can become a Buddha. What is important is when these sufferings can be eliminated. Otherwise, even if hell is empty, isn't the human world another hell?"
Taizhen looked at the Lady in Green and felt a sense of admiration in her heart.
With such a character, it is no wonder that he is worshipped as a god by countless people and his incense has been burning for thousands of years.
Even in that era when gods and Buddhas were still alive, deities like my sister were rare.
At this time, the Qingyi Lady had finished sprinkling the fairy dew for the day. She looked a little tired and said, "Taizhen, please wait here. I'll go take a rest for a while."
These elixir were all transformed by her magic power, and they consumed a lot of energy. After she finished sprinkling them every day, she had to take a short rest.
"Sister, go quickly. I'm here."
The lady in green made hand seals, and her body turned into specks of fairy light and dissipated, as if she had merged into one with the entire Qingming world.
At this moment, a bright moon suddenly appeared in the sky above the Qingming Realm, which originally had only stars, making the surroundings suddenly much brighter.
When they saw the bright moon, the ghost officials bowed their heads and kowtowed.
They knew that it was the transformation of the Goddess.
…
Taizhen felt a little regretful. It was so hard for her sister to have a little worldly desire in her, but it seemed that there was not much hope.
My little junior brother, can't you fight back a little...
Just as she was thinking about it, her expression suddenly moved. She looked into the distance and saw a handsome young Taoist standing on auspicious clouds. He was wearing a green Taoist robe and had a Taoist bun. His demeanor was as gentle and bright as jade, and he was extraordinary. He was flying towards the lotus pond.
Taizhen's heart moved. It was his junior brother. He actually came here!
He must be here to look for his sister...
Suddenly, Taizhen thought of something and a strange light appeared in her eyes.
Since my junior brother is not doing well, why don’t I help him?
Take some strong medicine...
My sister's personality is too noble and cold, so it's impossible to expect her to take the initiative. In this case, I'll find a way to make my junior brother more proactive!
Taizhen's eyes turned and a plan came to her mind.
She made hand seals and performed the art of transformation.
The next moment, her figure and appearance changed, the Taoist robe she was wearing turned into a green skirt, and even her temperament became awe-inspiring and holy, exactly like the Green-robed Lady.
Little junior brother, in order to help you, I risked being beaten to death by you.
If my sister gets angry, you have to protect her...
After a moment.
Li Daoxuan floated down and saw the beautiful figure.
His pupils narrowed and his heartbeat began to speed up. He wanted to turn around, but he couldn't bear to leave the beautiful scenery before him.
By the rippling spiritual pool, the empress took off her outer green robe, wearing only a thin green skirt. The gorgeous jade crown was thrown casually on the ground, and her long jet-black hair was let fall on her snow-white skin.
The slender jade neck and knife-like shoulders were all exposed to Li Daoxuan's sight.
At this time, the "Blue Lady" looked back and said softly, "Here I come."
Li Daoxuan almost didn't dare to look her in the eye, and said in a panic: "Should I... avoid her?"
The "Lady in Green" looked at him quietly, with a hint of amusement in her eyes as bright as stars.
"Do you want to avoid it?"
Li Daoxuan felt his face getting a little hot. He didn't know if it was because they hadn't seen each other for a long time, but the empress seemed to be quite enthusiastic towards him today.
"Well...as long as the queen doesn't mind, I'm fine with it."
The "Blue Lady" smiled slightly and said, "You are not an outsider, so it's okay."
Li Daoxuan was flattered by the words "I'm not an outsider". Has the queen come to terms with it and is no longer going to distance herself from me?
He remembered the questions his mother-in-law had asked him before.
Could it be that the Queen also has feelings for me, but because she is too shy, she sent my mother-in-law to ask?
Now that you have got a satisfactory answer, you are much more enthusiastic towards me?
When I think about it this way, everything seems to make sense.
"sit."
"Lady in Green" patted her side and motioned Li Daoxuan to sit over there.
He took a deep breath and sat down next to Lady Green. The two of them were very close to each other. Li Daoxuan's nose was filled with fragrance, very fresh, like peach blossoms that had just bloomed.
The "Lady in Green" stretched out her hand and slowly took off her shoes and socks, revealing her white and tender jade feet. Her pearl-like toes stepped wantonly in the clear pool water.
Li Daoxuan became even more nervous, because he knew that in ancient times women's feet were not allowed to be shown to others casually.
"Li Daoxuan, I like to be more proactive."
The lady in green suddenly spoke.
Li Daoxuan was shocked. Here it comes, but it’s a bit too direct to go straight to the point.
I can’t believe that the Empress likes this?
"How proactive should I be?"
The "Blue Lady" smiled and said, "Just be a little more domineering and enthusiastic, and don't be afraid all the time. I won't beat you to death."
Li Daoxuan gritted his teeth and thought to himself that the Empress is pointing at me!
He plucked up his courage, slowly reached out and held the empress's hand.
The moment he held it, Li Daoxuan's spirits perked up, and a look of disbelief appeared in his eyes. He couldn't believe that he really held it like this?
He looked at the empress and found that she was not angry, but was silently looking up at the sky, as if she was unaware of anything.
Li Daoxuan became a little bolder. It seemed that the Empress really acquiesced.
He held the hand of the empress, feeling the delicate and soft touch, and a sense of satisfaction arose in his heart. This was the empress in green, an existence that countless Yangshen mighty could only dream of, but now she was obediently letting him hold her hand...
The man's vanity is bursting!
Gradually, he became dissatisfied with just holding it statically, and began to play with those slender fingers, soft palms, and crystal nails.
While playing with it, he observed the empress's appearance.
Fortunately, although the Empress's expression revealed a little strange and her body seemed to be much tense, she did not show any intention of rejection. She just narrowed her star-like eyes slightly, as if her eyes were moving.
She still pretended she knew nothing and just looked at the bright moon in the sky.
Li Daoxuan smiled and said, "My lady, the moonlight is beautiful tonight."
"Lady in Green" turned and looked at him, the moonlight shining on her silky black hair and stunning face. She was as beautiful as a fairy from the Moon Palace, a banished immortal who had descended to the mortal world.
Or rather, she is a fairy.
Li Daoxuan stretched out his hand, gently gathered a strand of hair in front of her forehead and put it behind her ear. His fingers touched the crystal clear earlobe and separated at the first touch.
"But you are more beautiful than the moonlight."
His eyes became very soft and his voice became gentler.
Li Daoxuan saw a faint blush on the empress's face, which added a touch of charm and brightness to her, and made him feel a little impulsive.
He lowered his head and slowly approached the empress, getting closer and closer to those red lips.
But he kissed nothing.
The "Lady in Green" slipped aside at some point, put on her own green dress, and smiled sweetly.
"I'm a little tired. I'm going to take a rest first. If you have anything to say, let's talk when I come back."
Li Daoxuan was a little surprised. The atmosphere was so good, why did he suddenly leave?
Just as he was about to say something, he saw the empress transform into a stream of light and disappear into the air.
Li Daoxuan saw her silk stockings and embroidered shoes forgotten by the pool, which were embroidered with exquisite bamboo leaves, and couldn't help shaking his head and laughing: "It turns out that the queen can also be nervous."
Lying by the pond, Li Daoxuan looked at the bright moon in the sky and couldn't help feeling excited.
He had not expected that his arrival in the Qingming Realm this time would lead to such a big breakthrough in his relationship with the Empress. Although the Empress did not say openly that she liked him, she had already hinted that he should be more proactive in the future.
After all, the queen is also a woman, and it is understandable that she likes to be pursued.
Thinking of this, Li Daoxuan smiled and felt that the Empress was not so distant at once, but even more lovable.
But after waiting for a while, he found that the surroundings began to darken and the bright moon in the sky gradually disappeared.
"Huh? Why is the moon gone?"
…
Taizhen regained her appearance. She let out a long sigh and her face felt slightly hot.
This time, she made a great sacrifice!
Sister, Junior Brother, if you still can't break through that barrier after this, then I can't do anything about it.
Well, my sister is about to wake up, let’s go quickly!
She pinched her hands together and a handsome and elegant blue bird appeared. When she stepped on it barefoot, she realized that she had forgotten to wear shoes and socks.
It’s all my junior brother’s fault. I didn’t expect that although he looks immature, he is actually an old hand in the world of women.
Those love words were so cheesy...
