The #1 Pretty Boy of the Immortal Path

Chapter 203 - Fragile Glass

Edited by Animeart

In short, this was how things happened irreparably.

Lin Shu felt very flustered.

He set up the marriage alliance agreement, divided it into two parts, sealed it in a cylinder– one for each family, and then broke half a smoky jade stone as a token, and the marriage agreement was completed.

Lin Shu naturally knew that their ancestors kept their promises. The effect of a piece of marriage alliance agreement was 10,000 times stronger than that of the marriage certificate. From now on, regardless of the changes of time, whether across thousands of mountains and rivers, Phoenix Mountain Villa would need to marry it’s Big Miss to an unnamed descendant of Sword Pavilion.

For the Phoenix Mountain Villa, this marriage contract not only solved the sequelae of Phoenix Blood once and for all, but also eliminated the possible gender exposure of Ling Fengxiao that might be caused by the Emperor’s random choice of alliance for marriage, which was simply undesirable.

As for Lin Shu, although he got the corresponding ancient book for the chick, he also sold himself to Phoenix Mountain Villa for the rest of his life– it was simply because of a father’s touching love, although he and the chick’s relationship was still unknown.

At this time, the night was deep. The Empress held a glass palace lamp in her hand, her beautiful clothes dragged on the ground, and led Lin Shu into the library in the depths of the Palace: “Lord Taoyuan, please take a look.”

At that moment, he suddenly heard a gentle friction of clothes in the corner.

The sound was not from the Empress or himself.

Lin Shu took out his sword.

But he didn’t need to use his sword.

The Empress stepped forward, and the Palace lantern illuminated the thief who was stealing some books.

The thief was holding the book and staring at the Empress in a daze. He already looked a bit silly after he had taken a look at the Empress.

At the next moment, the man came back to his senses, with books scattered in his arms and started fighting with Lin Shu.

He was naturally inferior to Lin Shu in Martial Arts, but his body skills were so strange that Lin Shu couldn’t catch him.

Like a wisp of smoke, he hooked the window and flew out like a bat without a trace– perhaps an illusion. At the last moment, Lin Shu saw him looking back at the Empress again.

He knew who this man was.

This was Shadowless. Back when they were in Northern Xia, Lin Shu met him and even ate his eggs fried with scallions.

This man was the best thief in the world. His only failure was because he saw the most beautiful woman in the world and lost his heart.

So he hung nine big characters in his residence: “Thieves must not pick flowers, if you pick flowers, you’ll lose.”

Lin Shu asked the Empress: “Did he steal it?”

The Empress leaned over and picked up the scattered books. The tassels of her crown collided with a soft sound.

She said, “Even if he had stolen it, he would return it.”

Lin Shu knew what she meant.

Because, the word affection, it caused the most damage to oneself. People in the world were often obsessed with outward appearance. Perhaps she just needed to smile and many people would be willing to go through fire and water for her.

Because of her extraordinary beauty and tenderness, she had been loved by others all her life.

The love of the Emperor, the love of the Phoenix Mountain Villa Headmistress, the love of Shadowless… And even Xiao Shao’s love.

Perhaps, it was precisely because she had long been accustomed to the love and sincerity of others, when she knew that the Emperor could kill their children with his own hands for the eternal glory and authority of the royal family–she knew that there was another thing in this world that could make people crazy.

Then he heard her say softly, “I know Your Excellency is not a bad person, it has nothing to do with seeing your Sword Pavilion token.”

Lin Shu: “Why is that?”

She stepped forward, very close to Lin Shu and she whispered, “Your eyes are very clean. I have never seen anyone who saw me and didn’t have any changes in behavior. Therefore, if you were not focused on Taoism, you have a sense of belonging. If you have a sense of belonging to such a degree, it could be seen that you are a person with a pure mind.”

Lin Shu lowered his eyes slightly and said in his heart, it’s not because of this. One is that you are my mother-in-law, the other is that I hate you deeply.

He opened his mouth and said, “I met a man when I was a teenager, and he was gorgeous. Beauty is nothing to me.”

The Empress seemed interested: “Oh?”

“Only floating dust seems like a dream, everything is false, the skin is easy to destroy, and the glass is fragile,” he said faintly, looking into the Empress’s eyes. “The same can be said for appearance, the same can be said for the power and wealth of the world, all of it like a passing cloud, soon can become a thing of the past.”

The Empress chuckled: “Are you trying to warn me?”

“It’s just&#k2026; These things, for this Immortal Lord, are just as transient as passing clouds to me&#k2026;”

There was a vague, mournful bitterness in her smile: “To me&#k2026; But not so.”

She turned around with her lantern, the light flickered, and her clothes flashed brightly: “Here are all the classics. Please help yourself.”

Lin Shu stared at her back. His Qi condensed in the air, silently. A murderous Qi rushed straight at the Empress!

If the Empress’s life ended ahead of time, would the subsequent events change?

However, the next moment, he stopped.

——Because there was a faint golden red glow behind the Empress, the remnant soul of the ancient Phoenix protected her all the time.

Lin Shu turned around, resting his right hand on the spine of the old book.

Even if you go back to the past, would you still not be able to change the future?

In other words, the past that determines the future has its own participation in the present.

When the Empress left, Guiltless came out, looking at him faintly in the dark: “You didn’t touch the little Phoenix.”

Lin Shu: “I only touched his hand.”

Guiltless: “It’s useless.”

Lin Shu: “I will touch him next time.”

Guiltless: “All right.”

Just after he condensed his Qi, Lin Shu faintly felt the abnormality of his soul– this world had consumed it frantically. If he couldn’t get out of here in time, he would be left here forever, or worse his soul would be scattered.

He quickly searched for books. Fortunately, there were records about Phoenix Nirvana.

Guiltless also turned, but said coldly at the same time: “You advising that woman was tantamount to casting pearls before a swine.”

Lin Shu: “If she can understand…”

“How could she understand?” Guiltless licked the corner of his lips. “The world is like this. I have eaten a lot.”

“Xiao Wuzhen, if you eat resentment again, you will become possessed sooner or later.” Lin Shu has nothing to say. If Xiao Shao’s story repeats itself on Guiltless, he really didn’t know how to face it.

After solving the chick’s matter, he must put Guiltless in confinement.

Guiltless didn’t speak anymore.

Lin Shu’s gaze suddenly stopped on a page.

Guiltless came over to his side quietly.

The book said that the Nirvana of Phoenixes was very simple.

When a Phoenix goes on Nirvana, it’s body would become a burden. After being burned to ashes, it would place its blood essence and soul on a bone, a toe, or a feather.

Then, in fertile fields, Phoenix nests, Nirvana rebirth in the Heavenly fire.

Moreover, it must be a special innate fire of the fertile field phoenix nest. Without this fire, the phoenix soul would only be consumed in vain.

Lin Shu: “…”

After he finished reading the book, Guiltless looked at him again: “That’s it?”

Lin Shu did not say anything. In his memory, Xiao Shao seemed to have said this thing, but at that time they thought that the Phoenix was just an illusory legend, and no one really took it seriously.

It turned out that the vitality of the chick was here, which was extremely simple.

Fertile Field Phoenix Nest? In ancient times, this location was now the back mountain of Phoenix Mountain Villa. The innate fire had never been extinguished and had been used by the villa as a forging fire for blades.

Lin Shu closed the book: “… Let’s go.”

Immortal Lord Yuehua said not to stay in this time-point for a long time. Lin Shu immediately activated the mirror and returned to the original point in time.

They landed.

Lin Shu coughed a mouthful of blood, and Guiltless was also not looking good.

After only spending half a day in the past, his spiritual strength was already consumed by half. His cultivation was directly linked with his Divine Soul. He might only be able to display his strength at the Early Stage of Tribulation now.

The next moment, Lin Shu suddenly felt that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in the room.

There was a murderous intent!

He drew his sword out of its sheath and looked around the room.

There were footsteps coming.

Several people appeared in front of him.

It was at that time that several accomplices of “Daoist Qin”, who wanted to attack Xiao Shao and then had attacked Lin Shu back in the Phoenix Mountain Villa, and five or six wizards came– at least three or four of them had the strength of Crossing the Tribulation.

He then heard the leader of the group say: “The manuscript of the Great Wizard was really right. This person’s soul is indeed weak right now and can be killed without effort! The Evil Karma Platform is an ancient artifact. After killing this person, we can offer the artifact to him!”

Lin Shu clenched the hilt of his sword tightly.

After the incident in Phoenix Mountain Villa, these people had disappeared in the Jianghu. Unexpectedly, they still persisted in hunting him… And it seemed that they had learned the secret of the Evil Karma Platform.

The Divine Soul was a person’s foundation. If the Divine Soul was damaged, not to mention a sword move, he could only use a few moves even in 《Extinction》.

But he must survive.

A wizard in the Crossing the Tribulation stage, came forward like a ghost, and Lin Shu gathered his strength to produce a sword move.

When the two swords collided, Lin Shu consumed a lot of spiritual strength, but the wizard also lost 40% of his power.

But he did not retreat at all and continued to fight with Lin Shu!

At the same time, everyone else joined forces, and the raging murderous intent was like a net from the sky and the earth, heading down towards Lin Shu.

Lin Shu stood in front of them, ready to suffer.

Just at the exact moment, his body suddenly flashed red!

A fiery golden-red spiritual power shielded Lin Shu’s whole body, and it was this life-saving aura that blocked this fatal blow!

Lin Shu gasped.

The Empress had the remnant soul of the phoenix for protection, and he also happened to have a chick.

However, the chick was dying, and now it had consumed a lot of spiritual power…..

Before Lin Shu could figure it out clearly, he saw those people making another move!

He clenched his lower lip, the power of his Divine Soul was being consumed madly, and his “Overwhelming Sadness of Parting” was about to fall!

All of a sudden, the leader of the wizards suddenly stopped.

His body twitched unnaturally and blood burst from his white eyes!

The next moment, his fingertips were bleeding steadily!

At this moment, the north wind blew through the doors and windows, and the heavy snow rolled in, and the man let out a furious wail.

Blood.

His whole body became a vague mass of flesh and blood, and then completely turned into a pool of dirty blood, which penetrated into the ground of the hall.

The shrill screaming did not stop, and the rest of the people, whether they were light or heavy, began to bleed.

Lin Shu’s pupil shrank suddenly.

The shocking situation in front of him and the heartbreaking wails, coincided with what happened on the peach blossom land many years ago.

He suddenly looked behind him– Guiltless!

Guiltless looked at the people in front of him, his face was pale and his figure was shaky–then he lit a messenger fireworks.

Fireworks shot out of the window and exploded in the night sky.

Guiltless pulled Lin Shu’s sleeve and held the Evil Karma Platform with his other hand!

At the next moment, the two were in the high-dimensional world again.

Lin Shu’s mind was blank. He tried his best to stabilize his mind and find the right time node.

The two landed again.

This place was Phoenix Mountain Villa.

The atmosphere in the villa was deadly silent. It was known from the disciples passing by that the Big Miss had been unconscious for a month and everyone was already preparing for the funeral.

Guiltless said without expression: “Since they dared to come, there must be more than just those people. Let’s stay here for a while until the elders of your Sword Pavilion come.”

His body was wrapped with black Qi and blood mist, and his eyes were bright red.

Lin Shu was in a daze for a moment and couldn’t hear what he was saying.

All he could hear was the buzzing of his own blood flowing in his ears.

Vaguely, he felt something was about to come out, ferocious and ugly, hovered over his head.

Lin Shu noticed that Guiltless’s complexion was not right, and his blood red eyes looked straight at him: “What’s the matter with you?”

The accent of Guiltless voice has always been different from that of ordinary people. It had a mannerism of people talking thousands of years ago. Sometimes it is too flat and straightforward, and sometimes there are strange setbacks and turns. For two years, he has been unable to change it.

Like that person.

Five years ago, there was a man who spoke with a special accent.

That man.. also has a pair of blood red eyes.

Lin Shu: “You just killed someone…”

“Yes I killed them.” Before Lin Shu could finish speaking, Guiltless interrupted him with a very negative attitude: “I told you a long time ago, that’s how bad I am.”

“No,” Lin Shu frowned, “The way you kill…”

“Oh.” Guilty said with indifference, he took a few steps back: “Am I too dirty?”

“No.” Lin Shu pressed his eyebrows and realized that he had no way to communicate with Guiltless. This child’s temper was very evil by nature.

Guiltless curled the corner of his lips and slowly said: “If you feel I am too dirty… I can’t help it.”

Then he turned around and left.

Lin Shu held his shoulder: “Stop.”

Guiltless broke away from his hold and stayed away from him.

Lin Shu said, “You… Remember to follow me well. You can’t be alone. When the spiritual strength of the Divine Soul is not enough, we’ll go immediately.”

Guiltless, still had that disgusting expression and slightly raised his eyebrow: “Are you afraid of me falling here?”

Lin Shu had no way to help him, and gradually lost his ability to communicate: “Let’s go.”

Guiltless dropped his eyes, but never approached him, and followed behind him silently.

Lin Shu was confused by him. He stopped and grabbed his hand: “Are you angry?”

Guiltless, with his blood red eyes, gave him a cold look, took back his hand and went into the Qingming Cave without saying a word.
