Tian Yuan

Chapter 1831 A Gamble

She stood under the paulownia tree, her newly sculpted body naked, without a single piece of clothing, shrouded in mist, looming.

After a moment, she put on a lavender floor-length skirt with exquisite cloud-edge patterns embroidered on the hem and cuffs. She wore a belt of similar color around her waist, a jade hairpin on her head, and her hair was tied up in a high bun.

Creamy skin, red lips and white teeth.

She is tall and elegant, with a waist as slender as a willow and can be held in one hand.

Her eyes are cold, giving people a strong sense of alienation, as if she keeps people at a distance and is not worldly.

"clatter"

With light steps, calm and graceful, he slowly walked towards the outside of his ancestral land.

The moment she walked out of her ancestral land, she faced the warm sun, gazed into the horizon, the corners of her lips slightly raised, revealing a smile as gentle as a spring breeze, adding a different kind of softness to everything around her.

"The past seems like a big dream."

Looking back on the past, I feel filled with emotion.

Reintegrating into this world, the Phoenix Clan's ancestor was in an exceptionally happy mood. With a light tap of his jade feet, a fire lotus blossomed.

In a blink of an eye, she disappeared in the sea of ​​clouds, unnoticed by anyone in the tribe.

When I return to the world, I will take a stroll and enjoy the scenery.

The Phoenix Clan's ancestor had no intention of getting involved in the battles of this era. She just wanted to be a witness and see how prosperous this world could be.

In the end, she will definitely go to the realm of enlightenment and witness the heroes fighting for supremacy.

There is no need to be so anxious for now, just move forward slowly.

If you hear any noise, move over to take a look. If you are interested, stay for a while; if you are bored, turn around and leave.

The ancestor of the Phoenix clan is like a passer-by wandering in the long river of history, seeming out of tune with this world.

Before he passed away, he forced a ray of vitality into his natal imperial weapon. After millions of years of suffering, he was about to die, but fortunately he met Chen Qingyuan, and only then did he have the opportunity to live a new life.

Compared with those long years of hardship, today's leisurely and carefree life seems particularly unreal.

Perhaps only time can heal the broken feeling deep in your heart and slowly restore your body and mind to their original state.

......

Northern Wilderness, Fuliu Galaxy.

The forbidden area of ​​Jinxue is filled with the abyss of heaven and earth.

Ever since the battle in the restricted area that year, Tianyuan has been enveloped by the Jinxue restricted area, and the two have merged into one.

There was heavy snow and a biting cold wind.

On an iceberg deep in the restricted area, a graceful figure in red stands alone on the cliff, particularly eye-catching, like a ball of flame, resisting the chillness of this world.

Her red dress remained the same, and her black hair was tied tightly with an exquisite wooden hairpin.

The cold wind was howling, and the silk scarves and skirts on the clothes were dancing gracefully.

No matter how heavy the snow was, it did not touch her. When it approached her, they all moved away.

Sometimes, An Xiruo would stand here in a daze, reminiscing about the past and looking forward to the future. Sometimes, she would take out some precious silks and sew clothes by hand.

Suddenly, the cold wind stopped.

It was icy and snowy, and everything was silent.

At that moment just now, countless snowflakes were frozen in the air, probably due to the intervention of some force.

Although it was fleeting, An Xiruo noticed it clearly.

Turn slowly and face in a certain direction of the restricted area.

"Are you restless?"

An Xieruo guessed what the situation was and remained calm.

With nothing to do, she hesitated for a moment and decided to go and take a look.

The tip of his toes lightly touched the void in front of him, and he leaped high into the air. In a blink of an eye, he flew to the edge of the restricted area.

Standing high in the air, looking down at the glacier cracks below.

The crack was very long and dark, with no end in sight.

A faint ancient aura spread out from the depths of the crack.

"Why did you bring me here?"

An Xiruo placed her hands lightly under her chest, looking down with a cold gaze and her red lips slightly parted.

The empty and pleasant sound blew along the cold wind into the depths of the crack.

After a long while, a wave invisible to the naked eye began to ripple. The force was gentle, and it reached An Xiruo's front.

"I want to make a deal with you."

There was a voice mixed in with the ripples, it was extremely hoarse, like something stuck in the throat.

"What deal?"

An Xiruo remained alert and asked in a cold tone.

"Help me out of this predicament."

Another wave floated over, conveying a conversation. Its voice was vicissitudes, magnetic and hoarse.

The battle in the restricted area was ended by Emperor Taiwei's finger from a distance. Led by the six emperor corpses, they guarded various places in the sky and formed a very solid invisible barrier to ensure that the power of the rules of the Jinxue restricted area would not hurt An Xiruo.

In that great battle, Chen Qingyuan displayed extremely terrifying combat power, which shocked the world and astonished the great men of ancient times.

The being trapped under the glacier crack is the ancient dragon emperor.

Speaking of which, Chen Qingyuan's body merged with a Dragon Emperor's natal Taoist bone, making his Taoist body stronger.

"What can I get by helping you?"

An Xiruo said indifferently.

“I will teach you everything I have learned throughout my life.”

The ancient dragon emperor replied.

"I do not need."

An Xieruo didn't care about the inheritance of imperial skills that the world longed for, and she rejected it straightforwardly without any ripples in her heart.

"If I am not dead, I will sign a blood pact and allow you to command me for three thousand years."

The ancient emperor was silent for a while, and the hoarse voice was heard again.

By making this solemn promise, he has already abandoned the dignity of the emperor.

In order to get rid of this situation worse than death, the so-called face issue can be completely thrown aside and ignored.

These emperor corpses are all the work of the existence on the other side, using the emperor to plan the way to immortality. Since the direction of studying the way to immortality is of course to ensure that a trace of the original consciousness does not dissipate.

It's just a shell and can't do much.

In the past, Gu Kong was also a puppet. Fortunately, Chen Qingyuan and Emperor Taiwei interfered, giving Gu Kong a chance to escape.

If not for this, Gu Kong would have been a fish on the chopping board all his life, at the mercy of others.

"I am trapped in the restricted area with you. What is the point of sending you?"

An Xiruo said it very bluntly.

"..."

The Dragon Emperor was silent.

Considering that the Dragon Emperor had helped Chen Qingyuan before, and that a battle in the restricted area was not his intention, the coldness on An Xiruo's face dissipated a little, and she said, "Even if I am willing to help you, how can you escape in this state?"

"Gamble."

Hearing An Xiruo's words, the ancient dragon emperor responded immediately.

Over the years, his last bit of original consciousness has been struggling. Rather than continue to exist in this way, he might as well give it a try.

If you succeed, you will be free. If you fail, you will be liberated.

"How confident are you?"

An Xiruo asked again.

"Less than %."

The ancient dragon emperor said in a deep voice.

"I can help you, but there is one request."

Some things need to be said in advance to avoid friction.

"please say."

The Dragon Emperor was mentally prepared to lose all face.

"If you are lucky enough to escape, you don't have to follow me for three thousand years. Promise to help me three times and do your best. You cannot refuse."

After thinking for a while, An Xiruo stated the conditions with a serious face.
