I couldn't refuse my arch-nemesis' courtship today.

Chapter 113

He Changsheng was blocked on the road by Shen Shimian, surrounded by Shen Shimian's killing formations, Shen Shimian thought it was intentional but not intentional, He Changsheng's cultivation level was not high, so he was hard to fly.

The owner of the longevity store said quietly, "Did Xuan Ying ask you to ask me?"

"He doesn't want to doubt the friends he has known since childhood, so I will be the villain."

He Changsheng took out his folding fan habitually again, but said something irrelevant, "I said, will you let me count your fate carefully?"

Shen Shimian frowned, wondering why this person was so obsessed with his own destiny over and over again, the only thing special about him was that he possessed the blood of a demon god, what did He Changsheng know?

Out of caution, Shen Shimian did not refuse outright, but said carefully, "If your answer satisfies me."

He Changsheng's eyes lit up instantly, and he immediately said, "It's a deal."

That cheerful look seemed to have taken advantage of something.

He Changsheng pretended to shake his fan again, "Although I don't mind talking about it now, I think Xuan Ying would also like to listen to it together, what do you think?"

Shen Shimian suddenly became vigilant, Xuan Ying has always been hard-spoken and soft-hearted, if He Changsheng sees Xuan Ying, he is not sure whether he will use Xuan Ying's soft-heartedness to fool him, so he rejected He Changsheng's proposal without hesitation , "I don't want to use extreme measures against you for the time being."

There was a hint of murderous intent in his words, and He Changsheng paused his fingers slightly, gaining a better understanding of Shen Shimian. This is a person who is as tough as his heart and appearance. He Changsheng is not familiar with him at all. The only way to go is to obediently cooperate.

He Changsheng didn't tell the whole story immediately, but instead asked Shen Shimian with great interest, "What kind of extraordinary means?"

Shen Shimian didn't answer, the surrounding formations began to exude coercion, He Changsheng sweated on his forehead after a while, and smiled with difficulty, "You have a bad temper, and you use violence when you disagree, how can Xuan Ying stand it? "

It's good that he didn't mention Xuan Ying, but when he mentioned Xuan Ying, it was Shimian's inverse scale that was sinking, and the suppression of the formation instantly increased by another level.

He Changsheng's finger bones holding the fan turned white, but he still didn't let go, "I don't think you want to see blood on the day when the contract is about to be formed, so why stand in a stalemate with me here, so what if I meet Xuan Ying?" ?”

Shen Shimian said coldly, "Say everything clearly, and I will decide according to the situation."

Both of them refused to give in, and were at a stalemate for a while.

Seeing that he was so stubborn, He Changsheng secretly sighed, and an idea popped up in his thoughts.

He closed the folding fan, and then said, "Although I want to tell him about Xuan Ying in person, in order to win your trust, I can tell you another thing first."

Shen Shimian's heavy eyes fell on him, silently beckoning him to speak directly.

He Changsheng said, "I saved your life indirectly. A few months ago, you were in danger in the Ruannan Secret Realm. I hired an old friend, stole something from Xuan Ying, and lured him to the Ruan Nan Secret Realm. Looking for you."

Shen Shimian's pupils shrank slightly, because of the coincidence that Xuan Ying rescued him, both of them had a lot of speculations, and no one thought that it was He Changsheng who indirectly contributed to this incident.

No wonder he could know that Xuan Ying had won an artifact, and he could also grasp Xuan Ying's temper, knowing that Xuan Ying would pursue him closely, and finally handed over the artifact easily and disappeared without a trace.

Everything was obviously premeditated, but the people who premeditated and the direction they thought were very different.

He Changsheng looked at his expression, but couldn't tell anything from the outside, "If I had any ill intentions towards you, I wouldn't have put in all my effort to save you, and I wouldn't have helped Xuan Ying find his Taoist partner, would I?"

……

Xuan Ying stayed alone in Tiangongtai's room, because someone took over the ceremony, so he simply hid in the room to avoid being watched, and by the way, take advantage of Shen Shimian's absence to accompany Yuhua Shenjun, who has been down for many years , I don’t know all kinds of later generations.

Although Yu Hua Shenjun said very little, Xuan Ying was actually very happy to see him again, and briefly talked to him about some things in the cultivation world after the fall of Shenjun, but Yu Hua always had that detached expression. Yingjian, as a pillar of heaven, connected to the God Realm for tens of thousands of years, and then collapsed, had some reaction.

"Li Xiao insisted on going his own way, imprisoning you in the Raksha Sea, and taking on responsibilities that did not belong to you. Back then, I was the one who didn't think carefully, and only wanted to die with him, leaving you to suffer alone." Yu Hua said softly, The transparent figure became more and more indistinct.

Xuan Ying hurriedly shook his head, "It's not the fault of the gods. The gods protect my sword soul, and that's why I am what I am today."

At the end of the speech, Xuanying asked hesitantly, "Shenjun, is it because of you that I was reincarnated as a human?"

Yu Hua's long eyelashes drooped, "Well, you and I killed the evil dragon together back then, and the evil dragon fought back when it was dying, causing your sword spirit to be damaged and almost annihilated. I will separate part of your sword soul from the sword soul Yang Yang, the sword soul was sent into reincarnation, and then Li Xiao...in order to deceive me and restore Zhan Yingjian, I will send your sword soul back to Zhan Yingjian."

Human beings are divided into soul and soul, while weapons have more spirit. Xuan Ying's current body dominates the spirit and part of the sword soul, and the rest of the soul and part of the soul are hidden in the dantian, which can be said to be very complicated.

Xuan Ying has also seen the scene where Li Xiao gave Zhan Ying the sword as a gift, but Xuan Ying can't use his own feelings to guess Yu Hua's feelings. After all, what he experienced was only a pre-stage scene, and he actually manipulated the scene. It is him and Shen Shimian who develop and feel, which is definitely different from Li Xiaoyu's paintings back then.

Xuan Ying couldn't bear to ask any more, it seemed that no matter what he said, that person would inevitably be involved, so he took the initiative to change the subject, raised his smile, "Shenjun woke up just in time, and in two days will be my bond ceremony, you I’m really happy to be here.”

He didn't mention the bad things about Xuan Qingzi, Luo Chan, Shen Yun, and Shen Qing. God Lord Yu Hua only has one soul left, and knowing it would only increase the trouble.

Yu Hua stared at Xuan Ying with glazed eyes, "Seeing that you are doing well, I am relieved."

Seeing that his eyes finally had some warmth, Xuan Ying told him some of his own ugliness in Xiushanyuan. Yu Hua listened quietly, with occasional ripples in his eyes, and returned to calm.

It was almost midnight, and Shen Shimian hadn't returned, so Xuan Ying was a little absent-minded, always listening to the movement outside the door, and after the mandarin duck line was untied, he couldn't sense the other party's position through the connected red rope.

Finally at Zishi, there was a knock on the door, Xuan Ying quickly rushed to open the door, the first person he saw was not Shen Shimian, but He Changsheng, and he couldn't help showing a surprised expression.

He Changsheng rubbed his eyes sleepily, yawned and said, "Xiao Jiu is ill, I asked Brother Qin to stay in town to take care of her."

Of course, Xuan Ying didn't want to ask this. The ceremony of forming a bond is predictable and bloody. Xiao Jiu has no self-protection ability at all. It is safe not to come. The invitation he wrote also vaguely hinted not to bring her, but it is normal. They were supposed to arrive tomorrow, so He Changsheng found it strange to come a day and midnight early.

As if reading his doubts, He Changsheng muttered, "Don't ask me if you have anything to do, ask your brother Shen, where do I live?"

Xuan Ying was stunned for a moment, and took a house number given to him by Steward Qiu and handed it to He Changsheng, who directly stepped into the small-distance teleportation formation not far away and went to his room.

Every room in Tiangong Terrace has a door number, even if it is on the same floor, it is not like ordinary inns in the mortal world where you can move around at will. You can only find your room through the door number, otherwise you will just get lost in the formation and wander around.

Therefore, even though Shen Yun, Xuan Qingzi and Xuan Ying lived on the top floor, they would not meet at will.

Shen Shimian stood aside without making a sound, Xuan Ying said goodbye to Lord Yu Hua and pulled him away, "He Changsheng, a lazy man, is willing to arrive at midnight early, did you do something?"

"I can't hide this from my brother," Shen Shimian confessed, "I changed the date of the invitation."

Xuan Ying was still suspicious, narrowing his eyes, "Then you definitely can't just let him come here, what did you do secretly just now?"

Facing Xuan Ying, Shen Shimian didn't have such a cold heart, and his eyes were innocent, "I just want to confirm with him whether there are any evil intentions."

While speaking, Xuan Ying had already sat back on the bed, patted the seat beside him, "Tell me carefully how you confirmed it."

Shen Shimian, on the other hand, kept it a secret, and changed the subject calmly, "It's not that I'm punished not to sleep on the bed, I can just stand up."

Xuan Ying just wanted to say why you still remember this, but it is true that Shen Shimian has not been in bed recently, and has been meditating beside him, and his behavior is very well-behaved, but he obeys it very much.

This punishment was decided by Xuan Ying himself. Of course he had nothing to say, he pursed his lips, and pretended to say casually, "This punishment is..."

He wanted to say that the punishment was due, but Shen Shimian interrupted him, and warned, "The day after tomorrow is the ceremony of forming the contract, brother, don't recruit me now."

Xuan Ying choked, pondering the meaning of Shen Shimian's words, dare to bear it all the time recently?

He thought that Shen Shimian's personality had changed, but in the end he was saving all of it, Xuan Ying suddenly felt a chill down his back, and clenched his fists uneasily.

With Shen Shimian interrupting him like this, Xuan Ying almost forgot about He Changsheng, and also forgot to say that the punishment will be left alone. He widened his eyes, and Shen Shimian saw his bewildered and cute expression, and lowered his eyes, "I'm just following He Changsheng Changsheng learned the truth about my brother appearing in the Ruannan Secret Realm, but he refused to say anything else."

Xuan Ying was no less surprised than Shen Shimian, and almost jumped up, "He led me there?"

"He hired a friend."

Xuan Ying's face changed back and forth, and finally he rubbed between his brows, "He hides really deep enough."

However, He Changsheng, who had been hiding well all along, deliberately led Xuan Ying to collect the sword soul after that, and handed him the fragments of the sword soul and the news of Shaori Aurora, which made Xuan Ying unable to understand.

What on earth does He Changsheng want to do? Is it really related to the hermit school of divination back then?

The next day was already the last day before the ceremony, but Xuan Ying had never been able to find a chance to ask about He Changsheng, and the other party might not be willing to confess, so he could only temporarily believe that He Changsheng did not have any malice towards them. At this moment, he didn't have any spare mind to take care of He Changsheng.

Fortunately, He Changsheng had been sleeping soundly in his room, showing no signs of making trouble, and Xuan Zhen seemed to have been grounded by Xuan Qingzi and never showed up.

Since the morning, there has been an endless stream of guests arriving, most of them are representatives of various sects and sects who came to watch the ceremony. As one of the protagonists, Xuan Ying will inevitably meet this and that. Shen Shimian was in charge of the High Heaven Pavilion.

Near noon, Jiang Lian, who followed the others from Xuanjiang Gate, and Liang Fu, who had finally escaped from the bitterness of Xiushan Academy's courses, both arrived. Xuan Ying accompanied Jiang Lian to settle down, and Liang Fu ran to Lingxiao Pavilion to look for Shen Shimian. With a mysterious look, he wondered, "This is the reception area of ​​Ling Xiao Pavilion."

The implication was that Liang Fu had gone to the wrong place, but Liang Fu grinned, took out a jade-white bottle and stuffed it to Shen Shimian, and secretly said, "The congratulatory gift of the contract, thirty Yishen pills."

After speaking, he ran back in a hurry.

Shen Shimian was left holding the bottle and laughing. If Xuan Ying found out, he would probably be annoyed again. He put away the Yishen Pill, and his surface was still indifferent.

Everything was in order. After entertaining all the important guests, the unsociable Xuan Ying was dizzy. When he returned to his room, he even went back to his original room. When he opened the door, he saw a book about practicing exercises floating in front of him Only then did Yuhua Shenjun realize that he had made a mistake.

Yuhua Shenjun didn't mind, put away the exercises, and said calmly, "Is everything all right?"

Xuan Ying grimaced and let out a sigh of relief, "It turns out that making a contract is so tiring."

Yu Hua raised the corners of her lips for the first time, and her smile disappeared, "I haven't asked you yet, what do you want as a congratulatory gift?"

Xuan Ying suddenly felt embarrassed, and said in a low voice, "I am already very happy that the god is here."

What God Lord Yu Hua gave him was a gift that he could never end, and Xuan Ying didn't even know what he could use to repay him.

After that, Xuan Ying said casually, "If the god insists on sending it, why don't you tell me where I can get Tianhe water?"

Yu Hua actually pondered for a moment, and replied, "If you can gather your own sword soul and step on the peak, you can reconnect with the heavens, and naturally you can draw out the water of the Tianhe River."

Xuan Ying was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect to get the answer, but Yuhuashenjun, worthy of being an ancient god, actually gave a clear path.

He was staring blankly, but Yuhua Shenjun turned his face and reminded him, "Your Taoist companion is outside."

Xuan Ying thanked Yu Hua and rushed out excitedly.

Shen Shimian looked happy when he saw him, "Why is brother so happy?"

Xuan Ying wanted to surprise him, so he pursed his lips and smiled, "I won't tell you for now."

But his good mood didn't last long, and then he followed Shen Shimian to see Shen Yun quietly.

Shen Yun didn't express any opinion on their late night visit, but asked softly, "What's the matter?"

Xuan Ying's expression was rare and serious, "There is one thing, I want to ask Master Shen."

Shen Yun thought for a while, "Say it."

"My mother, she has arrived at Tiangongtai today. After the grand ceremony, the variables are unknown. I am worried that Xuan Qingzi will be unfavorable to her. I hope that Master Shen can protect her well."

It was this request, Shen Yun was not stupid, and instantly understood what plans Xuan Ying and Shen Shimian had for the ceremony. As for Jiang Lian, Shen Yun also felt a little guilty for her, so he agreed.

Xuan Ying's tense spirit was only slightly relaxed. He believed in Shen Shimian's judgment and entrusted Jiang Lian's safety to Shen Yun. Shen Shimian knew exactly how heavy the weight was.

The deeper meaning contained in this request is to completely break Jiang Lian out of Xuan Qingzi's control, and now only Shen Yun is free to do this.

At the grand ceremony, Jiang Lian, as an elder, must be the closest to Xuan Qingzi and Shen Yun, and Shen Yun is the most suitable candidate.

After returning to Shen Shimian's room, Xuan Ying couldn't help telling Shen Shimian again, "If mother is in any danger tomorrow, you must protect her."

Shen Shimian grabbed his hand, stroking Xuan Ying's warm palm, "Then Ah Ying must promise me to protect yourself."

Xuan Ying stepped forward and hugged him, "Success or failure depends on one move, and we will all defend ourselves."

Shen Shimian was silent for a moment, and let out a deep hum.

On the day of the official ceremony, as soon as it was dawn, the steward brought over the rush-made ceremony dress. The style of the dress was not gorgeous, but it contained brilliance. It was woven with the unique deep-sea ice silkworm silk of the Raksha Sea. It is very rare to spin silk naturally in red.

Xuan Ying monopolized the entire big bed, curled up lazily under the quilt, and looked sideways at Shen Shimian bringing in the dress from the outside. It was a red dress, exactly the same style, so red that it was even a little dazzling.

After Shen Shimian took the gown, he didn't put it on immediately, but took out many spirit stones and rare materials, and was busy there. Xuan Ying saw that he was engraving formations on the gown, and vaguely thought that Ah Mian was really powerful , As expected of the person he likes, he has a good eye.

Just looking at it like this, Shen Shimian's busy side face was turned against the morning light, which made Xuan Ying look absorbed, almost unaware of the passage of time. After an unknown amount of time, Shen Shimian brought over the remodeled dress, " brother try?"

Xuan Ying sat up suddenly, and the collar of the white coat was opened in a mess. Shen Shimian glanced at it, his eyes dimmed, and he turned his face away calmly.

Flipping through the clothes, including the inner shirt, the outer shirt, and the crown boots, Xuan Ying brushed up the long hair hanging from the sideburns, compared the crown, and found that it was not the simple style he often wears. Put it aside first, stand up and step on the ground.

Shen Shimian took out his inner shirt and handed it to him. Xuan Ying wanted to change directly as before, but when his fingers touched the neckline, he felt that Shen Shimian's presence was terrifyingly high for some reason, so he was so slow to do so.

Seeing him frozen in place, Shen Shimian's lips twitched slightly, and asked intentionally, "Why is brother not moving? I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up if I'm not fast enough."

Xuan Ying swallowed his throat and discussed in a low voice, "How about I go to the next door to change?"

Shen Shimian said meaningfully, "Brother wants to change in front of Yuhua Shenjun?"

Xuan Ying was stuck, of course he didn't mean that.

Shen Shimian's white fingers inserted | into the gap between Xuan Ying's ears and hair, and helped him gather his long hair behind his back. He sprayed warm breath on the side of Xuan Ying's ears, and watched with satisfaction that the beautiful earlobe was slowly dyed. Turning crimson, he said with a smile, "Ah Ying never shied away from me when he was against me before, why is it so shy to form a contract today?"

Xuan Ying recalled that when Shen Shimian and Shen Shimian had just tied the mandarin duck line, in order to torment each other, he asked Shen Shimian to sit by the bed and read the classics all night. When he woke up in the morning, he naturally took off his underwear and changed it casually At that time, Shen Shimian knew to move the book up to block his sight, and do not look at evil.

It would be a dream to find the forbearing and restrained Shen Shimian now.

So Xuan Ying could only quickly change his clothes at a speed invisible to the naked eye, and there was nothing wrong with leaving a tiara in the end.

Seeing his clumsiness, Shen Shimian took the initiative to take the tiara, helped Xuan Ying tie up his long hair little by little, and finally fixed it firmly with the silver-white tiara.

Xuan Ying turned his back to him, but his heart beat like a drum.

After the tiara was put on, Xuan Ying's whole person took on a whole new look. The lazy and casual temperament when he first got up was swept away, replaced by bright red and bright, with high spirits. Pull them all together, revealing the slender and flexible neck. The red dress sets off the white skin, and the bright eyes are full of elegance.

Shen Shimian's eyes darkened, he really didn't want to, didn't want others to see such Xuan Ying, he clenched his fingers and then loosened them, finally expelling the dark desire in his heart.

Compared with the neatly dressed Xuan Ying, Shen Shimian's hair was loose. The two of them stood together, and there was a harmony of hot, cold, quiet and moving.

Xuan Ying turned around, and wanted to ask Shen Shimian if he needed help, but before he could open his mouth, Shen Shimian pressed his back and pressed him hard into his arms, his warm lips blocked his, his lips and teeth Si Mo, it was the strength and eagerness to tear him apart again.

The body is already very familiar with Shen Shimian's intimacy, Xuan Ying habitually clung to his back, and said vaguely, "My hair crown will be messed up."

But Shen Shimian soon left him no time to think about these issues. When Xuan Ying was let go, Shen Shimian seemed to lick the corner of his lower lip unsatisfied, and narrowed his eyes slightly, "I used spiritual power to fix it for you." .”

Xuan Ying only felt that his lips and tongue were numb, and Shen Shimian seemed extra irritable today.

He thought he couldn't stay in this room any longer, so he left a sentence saying "you should dress well", and ran out without looking back.

Xuan Ying went straight to the rooftop, where some guests were already seated one after another, waiting for the auspicious time to watch the ceremony.

In fact, according to Xuan Ying's own personality, he doesn't like this kind of ostentatious ceremony at all, and Shen Shimian probably doesn't like it either, but when things come to an end, Xuan Ying can dig out a secret excitement.

After all, it's a little different to be infected by the atmosphere.

In the separate room next to the rooftop, Liang Fu saw his elder brother in fiery red, and suddenly felt that Xuan Ying's lips were extremely red, and he didn't know if it was an illusion caused by the color of the dress.

Liang Fu waved at him, and then Xuan Ying saw He Changsheng next to him, hesitated for a moment and nodded to He Changsheng to say hello.

He Changsheng covered his mouth with a folding fan, seemed to yawn again, and greeted him in the same way.

The timing was wrong, Xuan Ying held back and didn't ask He Changsheng about other things.

Amidst Xuan Ying's uneasiness, the auspicious time arrived quietly, and Shen Shimian's figure also appeared on the rooftop, avoiding the guests and going to the next room.

With the sound of "the auspicious time has come".

Shen Shimian and Xuan Ying stood side by side on the teleportation array, and their figures appeared on the high platform of the ceremony.

Sitting on the high platform were Xuan Qingzi, Shen Yun, their respective masters, and Jiang Lian.

Xuan Qingzi's eyes flickered, as if seeing that his wish for many years was about to be fulfilled, no matter how deep his scheming was, he couldn't hide his excitement, while Shen Yun seemed to be relieved and worried. As for Jiang Lian, she looked at the woman in front of her. The scene was actually a little tranced.

This scene seemed familiar, she seemed to have seen it somewhere.

But soon Jiang Lian restrained his thoughts and concentrated on looking at the pair of handsome and extraordinary Taoist couples in front of him. They stood side by side and were impeccable lovers.

The master of ceremonies stood beside, and there were countless guests sitting under the stage. Banban squatted on Liang Fu's shoulders with a black dragon around his neck and jumped happily. Everything seemed harmonious and beautiful.

And in Xuan Ying's perception, he could feel the gaze of Yuhua Shenjun secretly cast from nowhere.
