Chitose words

"what?!"

The expressions of the three of them changed at the same time!

Bo Xi's first reaction was——

"Reversing the meridians? Wouldn't reversing the meridians lead to death due to severe severing of the meridians? And how can there be any martial arts in this world that can reverse the meridians and commit suicide on one's own?"

Han Changsheng was immediately shocked and said incoherently:

"——Ah Zhao, you are as cowardly as ever! You actually dared to use your inner strength even though you knew you were poisoned by that vicious poison. Then how did you avoid exploding to death on the spot?"

Xie Zhao chuckled lightly and said:
  "Don't make such a fuss. I used to be in the Immortal Realm after all, and I also had some unique skills. You must have heard the saying of 'a negative makes a positive, and a poison fights a poison'?"
  My self-created unique internal energy method, the Jialuo Heart Sutra, can reverse the meridians. It has reduced the backlash of the 'Sad Flower Suffering Moon' to the greatest extent, so I was able to save my life and did not die on the spot. . "

Ling You's face was almost ashen, and he suddenly asked in a deep voice:
  "Even if it was you, this was your first time being poisoned. Were you sure at that time that the 'Jialo Heart Sutra' would be able to save your life?"

Xie Zhao touched his chin guiltily and said nothing.

Then of course she can't guarantee it.
  "Sad flowers and sad moon", who is not a big girl trying to get on the sedan chair for the first time? Life and death are just a game.

If she bets right, she can survive.

If she made a wrong bet, all she could do was die.

Fortunately, God was kind to her. She had been unlucky so many times, but that time she really made the right bet——

The "Jialo Heart Sutra" reversed the effect of the meridians, which greatly alleviated the impact of the overwhelming internal force trapped in the Dantian by the "Sad Flowers and Suffering Moon" at that time, allowing her to survive by chance.

As soon as Ling or the others saw her expression, they understood immediately!

I bet this guy is not sure in his heart either. Is this where he is trying to get lucky?
  Han Changsheng hissed and immediately slammed the table!
  "——You fucking!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he remembered Xie Zhao's true identity. He suddenly had a complicated expression on his face, followed his tongue and swallowed back the second half of the foul words, and said:

". They say, 'An eagle is not afraid of the wind, and a hero is not afraid of death.' You are such a hero! Do you dare to gamble on such a life-threatening matter??"

Bo Xi also shook his head slowly and said:
  "Thank you, miss. This is really true."

Could it be that the acting style of the top masters is all about this kind of courageous and fearless spirit of "if you don't take three risks, it's difficult to practice courage"?
  Ling You was silent for a moment, then suddenly hit the target, frowned and said sharply:
  "Xie Zhao, you are not the kind of person who loves power and refuses to let go of it.

Although the "Thousand-year-old Sword Immortal" was well-known in the Southern Dynasties, he established the "Support Department" and frequently went to the people to quell chaos and disaster, but he rarely interfered with the rights of temples.

You are so indifferent, why can't Your Majesty tolerate you? Could it be that you have something deadly in your hand that even the emperor is afraid of? "

Although Ling He talks little, he is really smart and hits the point every time he speaks.

Xie Zhao paused for a moment and nodded frankly:

"almost."

Ling You was stunned when he heard this.

He knew the depth and did not ask what it was. He just said:
  "Could it be that if the emperor holds that thing in his hands, it will cause some serious harm, so you can't give it to him?"

Xie Zhao nodded lightly, smiled slightly in surprise, and said again:
  "It's Ling He. You are really sharp and smart. If you practice the 'Way of Love' like Bo Xi, you will probably improve your martial arts level faster."

It’s just that the “path of sentient beings” is too painful, so it’s okay not to practice it.

Now Ling You roughly understood.

Looking at the entire Southern Dynasties, no people would question the character of Princess Tianchen, the "Thousand-year-old Sword Immortal".

Since Xie Zhao said that the thing was not suitable to be handed over to the Emperor of the Southern Dynasty, it must be inappropriate for His Majesty Emperor Jing to take possession of it.

But from this point of view, in order to get that thing, the emperor of the Southern Dynasties even did not hesitate to poison his sister, the "Thousand-year-old Sword Immortal" who was famous in the Southern Dynasties and respected by everyone. It is obvious that he was determined to get the object owned by Xie Zhao. .

If this is the case, Xie Zhao's situation will be quite dangerous.

If the emperor of the Southern Dynasty knew Xie Zhao's whereabouts, he would probably be pursued endlessly and endlessly.

Ling or after thinking about this, he immediately frowned and said:
  "Xie Zhao, I know you want to help me realize my long-cherished wish, but it's been seventeen or eight years since my mother's incident, so I'm not in a hurry. Let's keep a low profile."

Unexpectedly, Xie Zhao smiled.

She leaned on the pillow and smiled lightly. Fu Bian's face looked very bad, but the look in her eyes was sharp.

"Ling You, who said that this matter is just your private matter now?"

Ling You was startled and saw no hint of smile in Xie Zhao's eyes.

"Ling You, someone has started to play a very big game of chess behind his back more than ten or twenty years ago - his chess game has included all the four realms of the world, with unpredictable methods and hidden murderous intentions. Now we Although I don’t know what his ultimate goal and intention is, it is obvious that if he succeeds in the end, it will inevitably alienate the four dynasties, cause chaos in the world, and make countless people displaced by the war.”

Xie Zhao looked calmly at the frightened expressions of the three people in front of him, and said slowly:
  "Ling You, so this is no longer a family matter for you alone, but a matter for the world - the honor, disgrace and safety of me is a small matter, but the life and death of all people in the world is a big matter, so I will never stop."

In the silence of the room, Ling Or whispered:

"But, with your current body, can you really protect yourself in such a treacherous dark chess game? If you unfortunately die, I am afraid that the world will be in trouble again in the future, and no peerless master will be willing to protect the life and death of the people. "

Ling He's words are by no means groundless.

The top martial arts masters in the world throughout the history have not wanted to join the world and only pursue the martial arts in their hearts.

In the eyes of peerless experts, the general trend of the world and the Lihuo of the four realms are just natural trends that follow the trend. They are too lazy to intervene, and they are unwilling to waste their minds and energy on such mundane things.

Especially the sword immortals in the world are mostly cold and ruthless.

Sword immortals like the "Thousand-year-old Sword Immortal" Fu Jingci have been rare for thousands of years.

Xie Zhao smiled half-heartedly and said:

"What? Do you really think that I am a weakling with no strength? Don't worry, the broken boat still has three pounds of nails. I have been in the rivers and lakes for so many years, and I am not a vegetarian."

Ling You suddenly frowned, looked at her pointedly, and said:
  "Of course no one doubts the ability of the 'Thousand-year-old Sword Immortal', but you are too soft-hearted. If the world's situation in the future is really so dangerous, you might be ruthless enough to make a decision?"

yo?

Xie Zhao smiled slightly when he heard this.

How could Ling, a gentle and honest gentleman like him, call others "kind-hearted and soft-hearted"?
  She asked doubtfully: "Why do you have such an idea? In the past, I fought from the official road of Guangling City in the Northern Dynasty to the border of the Southern Dynasty. My evil reputation back then is still spread in the northern grasslands, intimidating many people in Han and Yong. Bandit, why do you think I am a soft-hearted person?"

Ling You shook his head slowly and said: "Xie Zhao, you will certainly do your best to eliminate evildoers who really kill people, but you may not do the same to those around you."

Xie Zhao was slightly startled.

Han Changsheng and Bo Xi were silent thoughtfully, obviously agreeing with Ling You's point of view.

Ling You said slowly: "Xie Zhao, the sword sore on your body that was injured by the 'Golden Platform' was a fatal injury.

The dead branches and grass leaves at the foot of the Immortal Ridge are all soaked in your blood, and even your clothes are stained with blood so much that you can't see your true colors - that sword is clearly aiming to kill you! "

His eyes were heavy, and his expression was obviously frightened and angry.

"If His Majesty the Emperor is ruthless in attacking you for the sake of power and the throne, it can be regarded as a reasonable motive. But what about the 'Golden Terrace' Road Suffering Bird? What reason does he have? The rights promised by the Emperor? He attacked you. , that is the traitor!
  Such an insidious villain, but we occasionally talked about this person in the past, but you never showed a trace of resentment and hatred. What is this if not soft-hearted? "

Han Changsheng nodded heavily when he heard this, and immediately said loudly:
  "That's right! Although the little emperor is cold-hearted and indifferent, Lu Shangque is even more cruel and treacherous!
  ——Fortunately, I used to respect him as a grassroots counterattack hero, but he turned out to be an immature white-eyed wolf! "

Regarding Lu Shangque's back stab, Xie Zhao was truly speechless.

But deep down in her heart, she still couldn't believe that Lu Shangque would seek refuge with Jing Yan for the sake of power and position, and secretly kill her.

There are many doubts about it, but it is actually not clear.

She used to be discouraged and didn't want to pursue it, but now she suddenly and strangely realized that there might be another mystery and reason for this matter.

Xie Zhao was silent for a moment, then suddenly said:

"I know you are worried that when I face my old friend in the future, I will not stop talking and I will be disturbed by him.

But I hope you understand that Fu Jingci has never been a bad person who behaved in a confused manner, and Xie Zhao certainly will not be either.

I didn't want to pursue it before because I thought it was just my personal matter. On the one hand, I don’t want to immerse myself in sadness, anger and negative emotions and struggle with these things. On the other hand, I think that I am not a perfect person. In the past, I did not do a good job in dealing with the relationships with people around me, causing people around me to suffer. Disengagement and morality.

However, if the people around me in the past did not have any hidden troubles and simply acted out of personal selfishness and endangered the safety of the people, then I would never be soft-hearted and tolerate them. "

Ling You looked at her quietly and suddenly asked:

"Even if the other party is Lu Shangque from the Golden Terrace, or the emperor of the Southern Dynasty?"

Xie Zhao paused slightly, then replied seriously:
  "This world has been in turmoil for too many years. The current peace and prosperity are due to countless predecessors who have sacrificed their lives for hundreds of years.

——Anyone who brings misery to all living beings for their own selfish interests deserves to die and must die.

There are no exceptions to this. "
