Qin Shi nodded.
After bidding farewell to Fu Jun, Qin Shi left the first district.
Before he left, Ning Yu reminded him again and again not to forget the stakes of the bet.
Towards this wretched fatty, Qin Shi was full of helplessness.
After leaving the first district, he went straight back to the fifth district. It was already noon. The blazing sun was baking the earth, adding a bit of restlessness to the outer region.
Qin Shi returned to the guest room. Kong Hyun-hui was pacing back and forth in the living room with a worried look. Her beautiful eyes turned red when she saw Qin Shi. "Qin Shi!"
With a soft shout, she threw herself at Qin Shi and hit him with her cherry lips. "You're finally back. I didn't see you this morning. I thought something had happened to you. I almost went to find Jian Zhun and fight him. Do you know that?" Qin Shi's face darkened.
The sudden warmth in his arms stunned Qin Shi. His big hand slid through Kong Hyun-hui's hair and said gently, "Alright, I'm back now."
"Where did you go?" Kong Hyun-hui raised her head and teased him.
Qin Shi hesitated for a while and told Kong Hyun-hui everything that happened in the morning. He only hid the part about meeting Jian Zhun and fighting him.
He didn't want Kong Hyun-hui to worry.
Knowing that Qin Shi joined the Mist Alliance, Kong Hyun-hui felt a bit relieved.
But after a while, her almond-shaped eyes flashed and said, "If it's the Mist Alliance, you won't have to be afraid of Jian Zhun. But the Mist Alliance didn't have an easy time in the past three years. You still have to be careful in the future."
"You said the Mist Alliance didn't have an easy time because of the Creation Group, right?" Qin Shi smiled.
Kong Hyun-hui was slightly shocked. She didn't expect Qin Shi to know about the Creation Group. But she didn't ask much and shook her head. "No, not all. The Creation Group is only a part of it. The real reason why the Mist Alliance declined wasn't because of the Creation Group, but because of the accident three years ago."
"The accident three years ago?" Qin Shi frowned in surprise. "What accident?"
"I don't know if you remember, but I told you when you fought Old Daoist Golden Eagle on the Wild Charming Night that Old Daoist Golden Eagle's cultivation wasn't enough to enter the Talisman Demon Association. He joined forces with the current Head Talisman Demon Association and framed the previous Head Talisman Demon Association."
Qin Shi nodded. He remembered this.
Three years ago, Xing Moyuan wasn't the only one in the Outer Realms. At that time, the Outer Realms was divided into two factions. One was the ordinary disciples that Xing Moyuan was in charge of, and the other was the Talisman Demon Association. The Talisman Demon Association is a very strange organization that the Chaotic Realms greatly values. After all, a group of Talisman Demon Masters can greatly increase the strength of the Chaotic Realms. "
"But three years ago, Old Daoist Golden Eagle, Xing Moyuan, and the others joined forces with the current Head Talisman Demon Association to frame the previous Head Talisman Demon Association. After that incident, Xing Moyuan took control of the Talisman Demon Association and became the most powerful person in the Outer Realms."
"The original Mist Alliance was supported by the Talisman Demon Association, and the Genesis Group was supported by Xing Moyuan. But three years ago, after the Head Talisman Demon Association was killed, the Talisman Demon Association gave up on supporting the Mist Alliance. You should know that in the Chaotic Realms, no matter how strong an individual is, they can't go against the government. Now, without the Talisman Demon Association, the Mist Alliance only exists in name."
Kong Hyun-hui sighed as she explained. As she spoke, Qin Shi could clearly see a hint of suppressed sadness in her beautiful eyes.
"So that's how it is?"
Qin Shi suddenly understood. He hadn't thought that such a thing could happen.
But he couldn't help but be curious. "How could a Head Talisman Demon Master be so easily framed?"
Seeing Qin Shi's confusion, Kong Hyun-hui shook her head.
"Actually, you also know about this." Her pearly white teeth trembled slightly. "Do you remember Wang Zheng from the Eagle City's black market?"
"You mean, that Disguise Master?"
"Yes, that's him."
Kong Hyun-hui nodded and said, "Three years ago, Xing Moyuan and the current Head Talisman Demon Master, Deng Kai, schemed. They sent Daoist Golden Eagle to steal the Thousand-faced Scepter from Wang Zheng's family and framed the previous Head Talisman Demon Master. At that time, Wang Zheng was enraged and slaughtered thousands of Outer Realm disciples. Then, he fled the Outer Realm. In the end, this matter was blamed on the previous Head Talisman Demon Master. Not only was his position in the Talisman Demon Association removed, but he was also expelled from the Chaotic Realms."
"I see."
Qin Shi suddenly understood. Everything formed a thread in his heart.
"Three years ago, the Chaotic Realms was really chaotic."
He snorted mockingly. He remembered that the matter between Yu Wenshang and Kong Hyun-hui also happened three years ago in the Chaotic Realms.
"Yes, so in these three years, Xing Moyuan's power increased greatly. She supported the Creation Crew with all her might. The Mist Alliance was gradually disintegrated from the inside. Only a few senior disciples were left to support them." Kong Hyun-hui sighed and shook her head. "The situation is already over."
Understanding this, Qin Shi nodded. Kong Hyun-hui was right. But he didn't want to alienate Fu Jun and the Mist Alliance because of this. Instead, he felt pity and pity for the Mist Alliance.
"The river flows east for thirty years, and the river flows west for thirty years. Who can say for sure? Now that Xing Moyuan and Xu Yan are in power, the Genesis Group is acting like a tiger's paw with their assistance, but who can guarantee that fate will always favor them?
Forever standing on their side? "Qin Shi smiled in relief. He had seen this kind of situation many times in the world where the winds and clouds were changing.
The Red Flame Empire was the simplest example.
Too many things had happened in the past hundred years. Didn't Xiao Chong, who was such a huge force, scatter when the tree falls?
Didn't he himself also replace the Burning Sky Sect in the northern region that had dominated for a thousand years?
In another hundred years, who would remember Xiao Chong? Who would remember the Burning Sky Sect?
In this era, only the winner would be remembered. Only the king would be remembered.
Regardless of the process.
Qin Shi's dark eyes, which were as calm as an ancient well, suddenly lit up. The corners of his lips curled up in a strange manner. "Moreover, I have some grudges with Jian Zhun, Liu Ming, Xu Yan, and Xing Moyuan. These grudges will be settled with them sooner or later!"
Feeling the sudden change in the young man's aura, Kong Hyun-hui was slightly surprised. In the end, she smiled bitterly and shook her head, flicking her ponytail to the side.
"No matter what decision you make, I will be by your side and support you."
She gritted her teeth resolutely.
She had witnessed too many miracles and inconceivable things from this young man.
She believed that this time, he could do the same.
Hearing Kong Hyun-hui's words, Qin Shi felt very warm. He and Kong Hyun-hui looked at each other for a long time, secretly delighted.
There was a saying that beauties were hard to find and bosom friends were hard to find.
Qin Shi rejoiced that he was able to have such a soulmate by his side when he was at his loneliest and most confused. He and Kong Xianhui were well aware that the feelings between the two of them did not cross the line at all. This was the most sincere friendship.
To be honest, ever since they entered the Chaotic Lands, Kong Hyun-hui had helped him a lot. He remembered every little bit of it.
By the same logic, when Kong Xianhui was at the lowest point of her life, she met Qin Shi. Qin Shi extended his hand to her and pulled her out of the valley of despair that she had been in for three years, allowing her to find herself bit by bit.
Their relationship was the product of a freak combination of factors. And this product was true love without any impurities.
"Thank you." Qin Shi rubbed Kong Hyun-hui's hair, "I won't let you down."
After that, Qin Shi stretched his numb body. In the next few days, he still had important things to do. He needed to immediately heal the injuries in his consciousness. This time, he met Jian Zhun and realized how terrifying it was to not have mental strength. Moreover, he still had to make a bet with Ning Yu. All of these required mental strength.
"I will be in seclusion for the next few days. Once my injuries have recovered, I will go to the Desolate Beast Mountain Range to refine the Demonic Talisman. Ten days later, I will bring you to the first district." Qin Shi was like a child asking for credit, "How is it?
Am I a good friend? "
"En, you are the best. Is this okay?"
Kong Hyun-hui laughed involuntarily. She realized that the young man in front of her was quite cute sometimes. She smiled, "Go ahead. I will help you guard the next few days. When you go to the Desolate Beast Mountain Range, I will accompany you. With the Mysterious You Zuo Qing sealed, I am unable to cultivate. Anyway, I have nothing to do."
Qin Shi nodded his head and did not reject.
After all, refining the Demonic Talisman was a very tiring task. If there was Kong Hyun-hui to help him kill the Desolate Beasts, it would be much easier for him.
After bidding farewell to Kong Hyun-hui, he entered the secret room in the room alone. This secret room was specially prepared for cultivation. There was a firm barrier inside.
After entering the secret room, Qin Shi sat down cross-legged. He was silent for a long time. His slender hand reached out from his sleeves. In his palm, there was a transparent jade artifact. In it, there was a drop of milky white essence liquid.
This liquid was the Holy Spirit Spring that he had left for himself.
"Whether I can recover or not, it all depends on you."
He took a deep breath and swallowed the Holy Spirit Spring in one gulp. The Holy Spirit Spring was very cool. It immediately spread in his mouth and gently flowed into his blood vessels.
Qin Shi closed his eyes and began to circulate his Blood Qi. He used his Spiritual Energy as a driving force and slowly sent the Holy Spirit Spring's medicinal effect into his Sea of Consciousness.
This process was very painful. But he could clearly feel that the more the Holy Spirit Spring moved, the more the cracks on the periphery of his Sea of Consciousness would recover. The pure and dense Spiritual Energy in the Holy Spirit Spring was like a vast and mighty holy light, illuminating his Sea of Consciousness.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed. During these three days, Qin Shi did not leave his room. The Xuantian Sacred Scripture and the fourth layer of the Fallen Star Tyrant Body Technique were quickly circulating in his Sea of Consciousness. With the assistance of the Holy Spirit Spring, the cracks on his Sea of Consciousness finally recovered.
On the night of the third day, the moonlight shrouded the sky of the outer domain. The silver-gray light fluttered in the air like clothes, mottled in the pavilion.
A wisp of invisible power instantly burst out from the secret room. His sea of consciousness, which had been dim for a long time, finally shone with a brilliant brilliance. Huge waves rolled up in the space of 360,000 meters, and faint purple flames flickered in the sky like stars.
Indifferently, Qin Shi's black eyes were like sharp swords that pierced open. Clear luster appeared in his eyes. There was not a single trace of impurity in them.
The corner of his mouth slightly raised.
