Chapter 187 - Arrow

Edited by Animeart

The two younger brothers were thrown into the carriage.

Ling Fengxiao took a step first, and then protectively helped Lin Shu into the carriage.

Lin Shu, a sword cultivator in the realm of Crossing the Tribulation, silently accepted being treated as a person who did not know how to take care of himself in his daily life. As soon as he raised his eyes, he saw the jealous look of the two brothers.

Even in the ancient times, younger brothers always seemed to be hostile towards their brother-in-laws, even the distant cousin Xiao Xuan.

Lin Shu not only didn’t feel sad, but also felt a little expectant.

His sister was robbed by his brother-in-law, and his sister was not his sister at all. He was sure that the pain caused by the latter would be greater.

The horse-drawn carriage rattled forward, headed south, into the boundary of Liang Prefecture, then went up to Phoenix Mountain, and stopped in front of the boundary pillar of Phoenix Mountain Villa.

Phoenix Mountain Villa was still very majestic and beautiful, with red and black architectural tone and was gloomy and solemn, which was a bit more solemn than the Royal Palace of Southern Xia Dynasty.

Ling Fengxiao played with Lin Shu’s fingers and said, “I haven’t seen Baoqing for a long time. I miss her very much.”

Lin Shu thought of those lively girls in Phoenix Mountain Villa and felt that he had not heard from them for a long time.

A few of them were the direct disciples of the Phoenix Villa Headmistress. They were orphans from all over the world. They had no blood relationship with Ling Fengxiao, but they had all grown up together with him and were better than blood relatives.

They got off of the carriage and entered the mountain gate.

The open space in front of the main hall of Phoenix Mountain Villa was made of stone, which was dark black, with a vermillion phoenix totem carved on it.

In the totem was a phoenix fluttering its wings, like soaring in the Nine Heavens, and its entire body was enveloped in a cloud of flames. According to Ling Fengxiao, such totems were scattered all over the halls, beams and walls of Phoenix Mountain Villa. The buildings of the villa stretched for dozens of miles, and there must be one within every three feet.

At first glance, the red color of the totem seemed to be flowing, like flowing blood or cinnabar.

Ling Fengxiao frowned slightly, leaned over and touched the totem pattern, his fingertips were stained with red liquid.

He stopped the silly behavior of Xiao Xuan and Xiao Lingyang from trying to observe, and showed Lin Shu his finger. Lin Shu picked a little drop with his fingertips. He couldn’t smell the vermillion color. It was strange, maybe it was paint.

They continued to march forward with their attendants. The Palace was majestic and oppressive.

Ling Fengxiao frowned slightly and had a bad feeling about what Lin Shu had said during their journey.

The premonition of Immortal cultivators, especially when one reached a realm like that of Ling Fengxiao’s had to be paid attention to. Lin Shu enumerated with him what dangers he might encounter in Phoenix Mountain Villa.

Northern Xia violently attacking them? Impossible.

It was possible for the Empress to break the relationship with Ling Fengxiao.

Ling Fengxiao pondered for a while and said to Lin Shu, “If someone in the villa wants to attack me with the Yi Ri Divine Arrow...”

The Yi Ri Divine Arrow was now in the hands of the Empress. Ling Fengxiao said so, he was ready for the worst.

Lin Shu: “... Hmm?”

“At that time... When the Divine Arrow comes, you... must not subconsciously stop it.” Ling Fengxiao said: “I will protect myself and won’t die.”

Lin Shu thought about it and finally nodded.

Recently, he has been realizing the true meaning of “Concept of One’s Life”. He understood that sometimes protecting or saving a person would be instinctual and a subconscious reaction.... Even if this action would end up bringing devastating consequences onto himself.

He didn’t know whether protecting Ling Fengxiao had become his instinct, but he knew that at this time, he couldn’t add confusion or hinder Ling Fengxiao. He had to remember to trust Ling Fengxiao at all times.

After that, Ling Fengxiao seemed a little relieved, and they continued to move forward.

Several disciples of Phoenix Mountain Villa saluted, said “Big Miss” and then led them — but Lin Shu looked at the buildings of the villa and the red clad disciples in the buildings, and felt that today’s villa was emptier and fewer disciples than when he visited last time.

The old Emperor of the Northern Xia Dynasty has been around for nearly ten years. It was inconvenient for him to move about, and he was also ill. And hence he could not come in person. Therefore, a messenger came with a document and the jade seal.

After so many years of confrontation between the North and the South, he never thought that the moment of peace, surrender and integration would come so soon &#k2014; just as everyone did not expect that one person’s strength could control the success or failure of a war.

The place to meet the envoy of Northern Xia was the sacrificial hall in the central area of the villa. The Headmistress of the Villa had been waiting for a long time, also the important Ministers of Southern Xia and the Sect Masters of several immortal sects were also already in their respective places.

The lineup of Northern Xia envoys also gave Southern Xia a lot of face, including Northern Xia’s Military and Peace Ministers, and even the Dharma protector of the original Great Wizard had come as part of the envoy.

After the complicated rituals, the book of surrender was read out.

Lin Shu’s level of classical Chinese was not low, but it fluctuated greatly depending on different fields. He could read the obscure classics of the Immortal family, but when it came to these political documents, he was at a loss.

Only by listening to the emissary’s reading of “Enlightening the door, upholding the great righteousness”, and “Whether morality is weak, stealing the legacy, admiring the weakened discipline and not leading the great religion”, he didn’t know what he was talking about until, “The power of heavens is shaking, the number of people and ghosts can return to power, the fear of the king’s master” and “the divine force is second, dare not change face, obey the order”, he intuitively understood the central idea.

He tried to understand classical Chinese, but he saw Ling Fengxiao, who was beside him, raised his eyebrow and passed over a message: “Baby.”

Lin Shu also said with a blank expression, “Hmm?”

Ling Fengxiao said, “Baby, you said...the Western Border obeys Northern Xia. Today Northern Xia surrendered and the jade seal was handed over. The world is unified. Could this be considered Fortune Luck?”

Lin Shu: “I think it counts.”

Ling Fengxiao: “I have already held the Imperial pen of the Southern Xia Dynasty. Today I received the Imperial Jade Seal of the Northern Xia Dynasty. So did that mean that I could be considered to have been the Emperor for a while?”

Lin Shu: “You can just see if the Emperor’s Luck will have an impact on the Phoenix Blood.”

Ling Fengxiao: “Okay.”

The letter of surrender was extremely lengthy. The Northern Xia’s ministers were trembling facing Ling Fengxiao.

However, no one knew that one person could block millions of masters. Her Royal Highness Fengyang, who has so much flare, was now talking by using mind transmission, to the otherworldly Master of the Sword Pavilion, which only appeared in legends.

Ling Fengxiao said he would force Xiao Lingyang to be the emperor.

Lin Shu asked, “What about Xiao Xuan?”

Ling Fengxiao thought that Xiao Xuan couldn’t do it. He didn’t want to get a wife. It would be no use being an Emperor. The next generation would still have no heir.

At least, Lin Shu thought for a while, Xiao Lingyang’s sexual orientation seemed to be more normal than Xiao Xuan.

However, Ling Fengxiao said that Xiao Xuan shouldn’t be allowed to sit idle either– let him be granted the title of a King. Xiao Lingyang was raised by the Empress and was deficient in dealing with the affairs of the previous court. However, Xiao Xuan often followed his father in and out of the court, which could help.

Now the question was how to convince Xiao Xuan to work alongside Xiao Lingyang? There was no way it could be disclosed that all of this was already planned. Should we say if he doesn’t conform to expectations, he can only be the Emperor?

Lin Shu was shocked by this man’s preparedness, and secretly lamented.

But he forgot that they still had their mind link open and all of these thoughts completely transmitted through from him to Ling Fengxiao.

Ling Fengxiao: “???”

Lin Shu coughed slightly and looked away.

The poor Northern Xia minister who was reading the document thought he was wrong, and trembled even more.

The letter of surrender was finally read, followed by the ceremony.

When the solemn music played, the former Prime Minister of Northern Xia knelt down in front of Ling Fengxiao holding a white jade plate in his hand. In the jade plate was a bronze seal with a dragon engraved on it.

At the ceremony of his accession to the throne, the new Emperor often had to take over the Imperial seal from a highly respected old minister, and then accept the congratulations of all officials and replace it with a surrender ceremony. This was also the same. This Imperial seal represented the authority of a country.

The Prime Minister of Northern Xia said, “I am ashamed to rely on the artifact.”

His Royal Highness Fengyang’s cold white slender jade finger took over the jade plate. The simple handover action was nothing deliberately surprising– but it was, that the rivers and mountains, the country had changed their masters.

But they heard him say: “We do not dare to disrespect.”

Although the voice was light, its meaning was of great importance.

Time was like a swift arrow that flew, people were like flowing water, rivers changed their courses, and the world was divided and merged in an instant.

Hundreds of officials celebrate together.

All kinds of offerings to heaven have been placed on the altar.

Ling Fengxiao held the jade plate, Lin Shu was on his right, the great national teacher was on the left, and officials of all ranks and descriptions followed his side.

But he saw a red dress walking slowly up the platform, facing the altar of colorful earth, and said, “I beg you to partake in this sacrifice for eternal fortune.”

The crowd fell on the ground and kowtowed.

“Eternal peace and fortune.”

Their respectful look and admiring eyes made Lin Shu feel that even if Ling Fengxiao has a female body, at this moment, no one would object to her inheriting the great throne.

After the praising, a clear bird song could be heard coming from the West.

Lin Shu was startled to realize that at this moment, the clouds in the western sky were so incomparably bright and that half of the sky was shining with golden red color.

Suddenly, a large flock of birds flew out of the mountains in the West.

These were no common birds such as sparrows, magpies and crows. They were rare birds with bright feathers, medium size and graceful postures. In detail, there were nearly 100 species.

A hundred birds circled in the sky, flying slowly in a posture that was almost like holding their heads and tails, forming a beautiful vortex in the sky.

The ancients said that there were hundreds of birds facing the Phoenix. Could it be true?

The crowd began to speculate and said it was a good omen.

Ling Fengxiao also looked at the sky without saying a word.

Lin Shu thought that, in this situation, at this moment, if the Phoenix flies again and bows its head obediently to Ling Fengxiao — then whether it is Xiao Shao or Ling Fengxiao, whether male or female, human or a ghost, that person could immediately claim that they are the Emperor who inherited the destiny of the heavenly scene. The country could not be without a monarch for a day, and the destiny of the heavens could not be violated, and one could ascend the throne.

The premise was that..if this person wanted to be an Emperor.

Lin Shu thought well.

At the next moment, the Phoenix whose tail feathers were as gorgeous as sunset clouds and as red as cinnabar was visible. Sure enough, it slowly flew out of the Western sky with a misty halo.

Everyone was amazed, and the crowd exclaimed.

Only Lin Shu knew that this was not a sign, but that somewhere in the Phoenix Mountain Villa, the Empress was blowing the Phoenix flute and attracted it.

Ling Fengxiao was expressionless.

The ceremonial officer took over the jade plate containing the jade seal of the country, while Ling Fengxiao, with an expressionless face, led Lin Shu with, and wanted to walk under the altar.

The attitude was obvious. It had nothing to do with him at this time. He didn’t cooperate.

The Phoenix flew towards him unexpectedly, seeming to fly extremely slowly, but in fact it dived extremely fast, and the next moment, it hovered directly above Ling Fengxiao.

Its eyes were black, with some warm luster. It looked at Ling Fengxiao, flying lower and lower, and then gently bowed its head to him and showed out the beak.

Lin Shu could feel the tension on Ling Fengxiao’s body.

Ling Fengxiao should have stretched out his hand to stroke the bird’s beak and accept its obedience, but he did not move, just stared at Phoenix indifferently.

The Phoenix gave a low cry, as if urging.

Everyone has been dumbfounded, even the Great Master could not avoid the vulgarity: “This...”

Suddenly, in Lin Shu’s mind, he felt a disturbance.

He frowned, stretched out his hand, and the bronze dice made by Qingming cave appeared in his hand, shaking wildly.

Lin Shu didn’t know what wind was pulling this thing. Using his divine mind, he looked in and saw the cause and effect mirror violently making zigzagging movement left and right in the cave sky, bumping into the wall, knocking deep cracks in the lapis lazuli wall. It seemed that it wanted to go out. The elder martial brother chased it quickly, trying to contain it.

——This reminded Lin Shu of the scene in which the mirror appeared before his eyes last night. He was extremely disturbed. He held the bronze dice and looked at Ling Fengxiao who was very close to him, thinking about whether he should be told about it.

——At this moment, the uneasiness in his heart suddenly magnified!

At that moment, his blood was frozen and his breathing was fast. After his heart stopped beating, he suddenly jumped wildly!

His pupils contracted, and a powerful force of heaven and earth locked him, making him unable to move for half a minute, and this feeling was infinitely enlarged. There were even colorful chaotic phantoms in front of him, like an illusion on the verge of death!

In the distance, there seems to be a flying light shooting at himself, like a white rainbow through the sun, which was unstoppable.

It was too late and too fast. All this happened in an instant.

The red shadow flashed before his eyes.

There was a dull sound.

The five tones, five colors and five flavors seemed to have left Lin Shu in an instant.

The next moment, his consciousness gradually returned.

Ling Fengxiao stood in front of him.

A sinister, pale white, bone-like arrow tip came out from the left back of Ling Fengxiao.

——It means that an arrow had penetrated the left chest of Ling Fengxiao in the position of the heart.

What arrow was it?

Naturally it was... the Yi Ri Divine Arrow.

Ling Fengxiao’s body was a little unstable. Lin Shu hugged him and saw a long and thin bony long arrow firmly nailed to Ling Fengxiao’s left side of chest.

Ling Fengxiao didn’t seem to have reacted yet. He lowered his head to look down at his chest and slowly grasped the arrow tail with his left hand.

At that moment, Lin Shu suddenly saw the sinister intention behind this arrow.

If it was aimed towards Ling Fengxiao, it may or may not have worked.

But if it was aimed towards Lin Shu, Ling Fengxiao would definitely stop it.

It was not defending with a magic spell, or a knife pulling out of its sheath to block it.

At the critical moment of life and death, subconsciously, he would stand in front of Lin Shu.

It was not a phantom body, not an ethereal blood mist. At that moment, he might have forgotten everything. Only a flesh and blood body in intuition can block the light and shadow of the sword.

Lin Shu’s fingers trembled slightly and tried to check Ling Fengxiao’s pulse.

When they went up the mountain, they agreed that if the arrow should go towards Ling Fengxiao, Lin Shu should not block it.

But it didn’t mention that when the Divine arrow went towards Lin Shu... What would happen to Ling Fengxiao subconsciously?

It was all wrong.
