Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 706: Legend of Ancient Sword 22

Although Ouyang Shaogong was happy, he still couldn't help asking about Baili Tu Su's current situation and Xiang Ling's story about the incident in Wumeng Linggu more than ten years ago.

Except for Jiang Xinxin, everyone else was completely unprepared for Ouyang Shaogong. Baili Tu Su even revealed everything Han Xiuning had said. Feng Qingxue also brought up Jiang Xinxin's suggestion of looking for a treasure that could replenish the soul, and said that there was no such thing in Youdu, but there were treasures that could nourish the soul, so everyone didn't need to rush around.

Ouyang Shaogong immediately shifted his attention to Jiang Xinxin. Jiang Xinxin felt that there was nothing to hide at this moment, so she followed Feng Qingxue's words and said, "Tu Su is innocent. It's fine if he wants to live. It's also fine if he doesn't want his soul to be mixed with other people's things. All we can do is help him find a treasure to nourish his soul to ensure that his soul does not dissipate, and then slowly look for a treasure to replenish his soul later."

At this point, Ouyang Shaogong could no longer keep a smile on his face. Fortunately, everyone was drunk, and only he and Jiang Xinxin were still sober. Jiang Xinxin did not think of exposing his identity, otherwise even the most innocent Xiang Ling would have noticed that something was wrong with him.

But the play must go on. She had said a lot to Ouyang Shaogong before, but after only three years of not seeing him, he had committed more sins. It was obvious that he had never thought of turning back.

Ouyang Shaogong obviously also thought of the content of the conversation three years ago. He frowned and still felt that the heavens had treated him unfairly. "If I didn't use this soul-transferring technique, I would have disappeared between heaven and earth long ago!"

Jiang Xinxin knew that Ouyang Shaogong was accusing her of pretending to be indifferent and being friends with him even though she had given up on him a long time ago, which was very hypocritical; on the other hand, he was using her to accuse Nuwa, who had behaved in a similar way to her.

Even though she knew that everyone else, including Baili Tu Su, was completely drunk and couldn't hear anything, Jiang Xinxin still set up a soundproof barrier between her and Ouyang Shaogong.

Jiang Xinxin said seriously: "The deal I made with Nuwa was to help her preserve Baili Tusu's soul. At first, I didn't know that Baili Tusu had a quarter of your soul, so I thought Nuwa had completely given up on you. But later I found that something was wrong, especially after I went to Wangchuan Haoli with Tusu, I realized that he had a quarter of the immortal spirit of Prince Changqin."

"So I think, maybe Nuwa did intend to preserve Tu Su in the beginning, but wasn't she also hoping that the Prince's Qin would not completely disappear between heaven and earth through this method?"

But Ouyang Shaogong didn't listen at all. He stood up and looked at the sun hanging high in the sky with a wanton and dangerous look in his eyes.

"So what? Since you have already chosen someone else and given up on me, do you still want me to be grateful to you?!"

Seeing that Ouyang Shaogong was completely confused, Jiang Xinxin said directly: "What I mean is, if you still have a little merit and luck left in you, I will not watch you disappear!"

"But look at yourself. Three years ago, you had not yet exhausted all of Prince Changqin's merits, but now you are only filled with sins."

"As a deity born in ancient times, do you need others to explain to you how important merit and luck are?!"

"To tell you the truth, it's not impossible to save you, but my own merits and luck are not obtained in vain. You know the price I have to pay to save a fairy like you who is full of sins. And you are really not worth such a huge price!"

When Jiang Xinxin said that he could still be saved, Ouyang Shaogong was furious but still retained his rationality. He couldn't help but start thinking in his mind whether he could come up with a way to get the idea out of Jiang Xinxin, or make Jiang Xinxin save him willingly or forcedly.

Jiang Xinxin saw through Ouyang Shaogong's various calculations when he lost control of his emotions. She couldn't help but sneered and said, "You still don't understand what I mean."

"If you can realize that you were harmed by the Emperor Fuxi, and still have a little bit of willpower to get back at yourself, I would be happy to cooperate. But in fact, you only pick on the weak. You joke about the safety of the human world. Don't you have any hope that Nuwa or Shennong will show up to save you?"

Ouyang Shaogong's face was completely torn off by Jiang Xinxin. He could have covered it up, but after talking about everything that happened today, he suddenly didn't want to do that anymore. He even looked at Jiang Xinxin with a fearless look, waiting for her reaction.

Jiang Xinxin is not the type to be coerced. She laughed in anger: "Very good, I really don't want to do anything to you at the moment, but I can make you lose your identity as Ouyang Shaogong in advance. Besides, you have planned to destroy the world anyway. Even if I let you succeed today, it will only be in advance. I can still afford this price."

"Besides, once I save Baili Tu Su, maybe I won't have to pay even those tiny costs."

Ouyang Shaogong really had no bargaining chips against Jiang Xinxin. She came from another world and had no demands on this world, so naturally she didn't need any contributions. Moreover, she had Nuwa's support behind her. If he really used the people of the world to kidnap and threaten her, he would probably just be a villain in vain and add to his sins.

Nuwa has fallen, and what remains in the world is only her divine power and the obsession to protect all people in the world. With his mind racing, Ouyang Shaogong has figured out a lot of things.

For example, Baili Tu Su may have never done any evil, but he should not have the merits and luck to protect him from being devoured by the Fen Ji Sword Spirit. However, he has ignored it until now, and only occasionally suffers from the evil spirit entering his body on the full moon nights. It is obvious that it is the merits and legacy of the Wumeng Spirit Valley that has guarded the Fen Ji Sword for thousands of years that are protecting him.

Thinking of this, Ouyang Shaogong couldn't help but feel angry and his mind could no longer calm down. He even looked at the Fen Ji sword on Baili Tu Su's back and wanted to snatch it away.

But he also knew very well that Jiang Xinxin's confession of everything today, even the various secrets that she was too lazy to hide, was an ultimatum to him. If he insisted on doing so, then the only outcome that awaited him would be a death sentence.

In order to grasp this last glimmer of hope, Ouyang Shaogong felt that he could do everything Jiang Xinxin wanted!

The group of people finally woke up after the sun set. As soon as Baili Tu Su woke up, he saw Fang Lansheng sleeping next to him. He also saw that this was the room where he had stayed temporarily when he came to Ouyang's house, and he immediately felt much more relaxed.

On the other side, Feng Qingxue woke up earlier than Xiangling. Originally, Ouyang Shaogong did not allow Xiangling to drink, but she secretly drank a glass when no one was paying attention, and ended up sleeping until now.

"My head hurts so much..." Feng Qingxue started suffering from a headache as soon as she woke up. Jiang Xinxin heard the noise inside and hurriedly brought in honey water, letting Feng Qingxue drink a cup from her hand.

"You, you obviously can't drink, but I told you to stop trying to be stubborn." Jiang Xinxin put down the water cup and handed Feng Qingxue a handkerchief, saying unhappily.

Feng Qingxue wiped her face and became completely sober. Recalling how she laughed and made noises at noon, she could only smile and pretend nothing had happened.

However, thinking of the reunion with everyone, she couldn't help but smile: "I am so happy today, Xinxin. I was worried when I left Tianyong City three years ago. I didn't expect that today, three years later, we would have the opportunity to get together for a drink and meet a new friend, Xiangling!"

Three years have passed, and Feng Qingxue has only been focusing on cultivation, without any smart thinking at all.

Jiang Xinxin didn't want to continue worrying about everyone, so she quickly threw those thoughts away. Seeing that Xiangling was about to wake up, she pinched a handkerchief for Xiangling and put it aside.

When Xiang Ling finished packing and walked out of the yard, she saw Baili Tu Su, Fang Lansheng and Ouyang Shaogong waiting outside the yard.

Ouyang Shaogong greeted directly: "I made a bad arrangement at noon. I didn't expect that everyone couldn't drink. At night, let's just eat and enjoy the moon. I will play a song for everyone as an apology."

Xiang Ling and Fang Lansheng clapped their hands and said yes. Baili Tu Su and Feng Qingxue also praised Ouyang Shaogong's piano skills. When Jiang Xinxin saw Ouyang Shaogong looking at her, she just smiled slightly, with no targeting intention, and was as close to him as before.
