Volume 2: Achieving the Nine Heavens and Breaking the Cage Chapter 241: The direction pointed by the unknown
When Gu Xiaoxing returned to the sect after going out, he found Master Bai again and made some arrangements for the sect. Finally, he announced to the public that he was in seclusion.
But only Xu Qianxing knew that Gu Xiaoxing's so-called retreat was actually to use the art of palmistry to deduce how to heal his injuries.
Xu Qianxing already knew the price of the life-control technique, but this time, she did not try to stop Gu Xiaoxing because she also understood that she could not stop him.
Standing outside Gu Xiaoxing's practice cave, Xu Qianxing looked up and gazed quietly at the top of the sect's mountain. His eyes were blurred and he thought of Qiao Yanran's words.
"I am greedy to ride on a flower-picking horse and I am happy to ride on a lotus-picking boat. I dare not ask for anything more to be with Xiaoxing. The only thing I can do is to fulfill his wishes...!"
Xiao Zhuhuo has been serving beside Xu Qianxing. Looking at Xu Qianxing's expression, she knows that her uncle is probably not just in seclusion.
But every time she thought of her uncle, her heart would beat faster and her heart would flutter, and this made her feel extremely guilty every time she faced Xu Qianxing, so she didn't dare to ask too much.
Xiao Zhuhuo only roughly knew that Xu Qianxing had made a mistake in his practice, which resulted in poor health, so she was particularly careful when serving him, not daring to let Xu Qianxing get tired at all.
This also made Xu Qianxing like this little girl even more.
But in fact, Xiao Zhuhuo is only two years younger than Xu Qianxing...
Only when he has nothing to do will Xiao Zhuhuo retreat to one side to practice the Thunder and Fire Pure Skill.
The more she practiced, the more she found that this technique was suitable for her.
Although her current attainments were far from being able to gather lightning, after ten days of practice, she was finally able to refine a wisp of pure green fire.
Even though it's just a wisp of green fire, it is enough to easily burn a person in the early stage of foundation building into ashes.
Even if you are in the middle stage of foundation building, if you are not careful and are contaminated by this fire, you will definitely not feel good!
Feeling the amazing power of that wisp of green flame, Xiao Zhuhuo finally realized the complexity of this technique .
This is just a wisp of green flame!
If all of one's own flames were refined into this kind of green fire, and then gathered into green thunder, how powerful would it be?
It was also on this tenth day that Gu Xiaoxing’s retreat finally ended, and he flew down from the top of the sect’s mountain.
The moment Xiao Zhuhuo saw his uncle, he was stunned. Why did his uncle become like this?
At this moment, Gu Xiaoxing's originally shiny black hair turned gray, with a strand of white hair floating in it.
Although Gu Xiaoxing's face seemed to have not changed much and he still looked like a young man, he gave people a feeling of being surrounded by old age.
Especially the vicissitudes of life in his eyes and the long gray hair, it seemed as if the whole person had aged dozens of years in an instant.
And this is the price of the art of controlling life!
Xu Qianxing's nose felt sore. Although she tried to hold back again and again, she still couldn't bear it anymore. She threw herself into Gu Xiaoxing's arms, not knowing what to say for a moment, and sobbed silently.
Gu Xiaoxing hugged her, put his big hand on her back and gently comforted her, saying: "It's okay, it's just a little life span, it will come back when your cultivation level improves."
Only Gu Xiaoxing himself knew that, in fact, he was much more than just a few decades older.
This time, he lost at least hundreds of years of life, but God helps those who work hard, and finally there was a result!
Gu Xiaoxing narrowed his eyes and looked in one direction, muttering in his heart: "That's just right, it's time to put an end to this."
At the side, Xiao Zhuhuo looked at his uncle, and seeing his disheveled appearance with gray hair , he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and his eyes turned red unconsciously.
In fact, she didn't know why she was like this, but seeing her uncle like this, she felt upset.
Gu Xiaoxing naturally also felt Xiao Zhuhuo's gaze, sighed slightly in his heart, and slowly extended a hand towards her.
This time, Xiao Zhuhuo obviously hesitated for a moment, but finally took the initiative to move his head forward.
Feeling the uncle's gentle caress again and again, Zhuhuo's heart was finally no longer so blocked, and he gradually revealed an expression of enjoyment.
Gu Xiaoxing looked at Zhuhao's happy and satisfied smile, but a hint of bitterness arose in his heart.
Because the deeper he got into Taoism, the harder he found it to keep that innocent smile, and the more he discovered his own shortcomings!
If you want more, you will lose more.
But what Gu Xiaoxing wants... is too much!
In fact, he himself knew that he was very greedy, but this greed was also a part of him that he could not give up.
If you want more, you have to pay more!
This is fair, Gu Xiaoxing understands this, so even if his life span is extended by hundreds of years, he has no regrets!
Just because this is the path he wants to take, he never wants to be like Zhou Shoutai...
It’s okay to walk alone on the road and be lonely in this world.
Lonely little star, I don’t want to be a lonely star!
After a while, when Xu Qianxing's mood gradually calmed down, he looked up and asked, "Are there any results?"
Gu Xiaoxing nodded and said with a smile: "Originally, I wanted to cure your injury before going to the Body Refining Sect, but now it doesn't have to be so troublesome!"
Xu Qianxing was startled for a moment, then reacted and said, "You mean, the Body Refining Sect has a way to cure me?"
"Actually, I'm not too sure, but in that mysterious place, I saw a big change in your destiny, pointing to the direction of the Body Refining Sect...!"
"Little candlelight !"
Suddenly, the voice of her master's uncle rang in Xiao Zhuhuo's ears. Maybe it was because she felt guilty, but she was startled and said hurriedly, "Here... Xiao Zhuhuo is here!"
Gu Xiaoxing looked at her strangely and said, "Do you want to go to the Body Refining Sect to have some fun?"
"I want to!" Xiao Zhuhuo said without hesitation.
"Then go and bring over some magical instruments and treasures with larger storage spaces from the sect."
As he spoke, Gu Xiaoxing took out a token and handed it to her, then continued, "Take my token with you. If anyone asks you, just say it was your uncle who told you."
"Oh!" Xiao Zhuhuo didn't say much. He took his uncle's token and went to the second level of the mountain.
Xu Qianxing naturally saw what Gu Xiaoxing was thinking, but worry was still in his eyes.
After all, the Body Refining Sect is one of the three major sects in the Small Wasteland, with a long heritage, and no one knows how deep its foundation is.
Perhaps the only thing that is inferior to the Sword Controlling Sect is that it does not have any Nascent Soul cultivators.
Gu Xiaoxing also noticed the worry in Xu Qianxing's eyes, and immediately raised his eyebrows, glared at her, and said, "You don't believe me?"
Xu Qianxing blinked his big eyes, and after feeling Gu Xiaoxing's gaze, his heartbeat accelerated.
"I...I believe it!" Xu Qianxing replied with a little nervousness.
"You hesitated!"
"I... ugh!"
Xiao Zhuhuo did not dare to slack off in following his uncle's orders, and moved quickly. Soon he had brought all the magical instruments and treasures with large storage space in the sect .
When she skipped back to the fourth level of the mountain, she immediately saw her master's uncle and aunt kissing each other. Her face immediately turned red and she quickly covered her eyes.
But he couldn't resist his curiosity, so he left a gap between his fingers and observed secretly. Gradually, a strange idea emerged in his mind.
“Candlelight also wants to be with Uncle Master… ahhhh!”
"Candlelight, Candlelight, not only are you shameless, you are also shameless and have no shame! Ugh...how could you think like that?!"
