Chapter 656 A World Within Three Inches of the Palm

修行 is like evolution.

Each realm is vastly different. A divine body is formed as if a species has been transformed. A great demon in human form looking upon a mortal is as inconceivable as an ancient dragon sowing its seed throughout the world, without distinguishing between meat and vegetables.

It's like a human developing affection for an earthworm. Regardless of whether it exists or not, in the eyes of true cultivators, it is extremely unreasonable.

Sun Zhengyi and the others didn't understand the demon race, but An Qisheng would not be deceived.

Even though this female demon was Sun En's mother in this life.

"As expected, I cannot hide it from you, Senior..."

Hearing An Qisheng's words, the female demon raised her head. Her exquisite and picturesque face, even with its fatigue and pallor, was still pleasing to the eye.

An Qisheng could tell at a glance that she was not human, but she could not see through An Qisheng's background.

Concentrating her gaze, it was like facing the heavens, vast and boundless, yet she could see nothing.

"The demon race is not like the human race, it is cruel and bloody. My fox clan's position in the demon race is precarious. I was hunted down by enemies and injured my origin. Fortunately, Sun Lang saved me, and I felt grateful in my heart.

So I offered myself to him and bore him a child, then I would leave..."

The female demon had a sorrowful expression as she answered softly, looking at the sleeping child with eyes full of love.

"Hunted down by enemies?"

Hearing this, An Qisheng shook his head, "It seems you really haven't been in Dongzhou for many years..."

"What do you mean by that, Senior?"

The female demon was somewhat surprised.

"Otherwise, you wouldn't have the thought of deceiving me."

An Qisheng's eyes were deep and flickering:

"The demon race is headed by the Tianpeng and Shenyuan clans, who have been fighting endlessly for countless years. But apart from these two clans, there is also the Qingqiu lineage within the demon race.

I've heard that the foxes of this lineage are incredibly beautiful, yet they also understand the secrets of heaven. Their methods are no less than those of the human race's sacred grounds, which are famous for their knowledge of heavenly secrets!"

"Is that so, or is it not?"

The female demon's expression finally changed, and she could no longer maintain her composure: "Who exactly are you?"

"This humble Taoist is Yuanyang."

An Qisheng stared at the female demon, a cyan brand sketched in the depths of his eyes, its light flashed and disappeared: "The young master of the Qingqiu fox clan, running to the heart of the human race to have an affair and bear a child..."

Returning a favor?

That can only deceive ordinary people.

The Qingqiu fox clan's position in the demon race is no less than that of the Mingyue Holy Land in Dongzhou. Would the direct bloodline fox clan of the ancient three clans demean themselves to a human in order to repay a favor?

What a joke!

In fact, the Sun family's calamity that he had seen, Sun En's death tribulation, came from this Qingqiu female fox!

If he hadn't come.

After giving birth to the child, this female demon would have used thunderous methods to slaughter the entire Sun family, and even the entire city!

Finally, strangling Sun En!

Ascension is like reincarnation. Even if Sun En had great abilities at this time, he would not be able to escape from the hands of a great demon!

This was one of the reasons why An Qisheng had traveled thousands of miles to come here.

"Heh."

With a soft laugh, accompanied by the flow of green light, the woman on the couch had already landed on the ground.

She wore a green silk dress, her black hair couldn't hide her snow-white neck, her figure was graceful, her appearance was beautiful, charming but not enchanting.

Her appearance was already excellent, but now she appeared even more beautiful and moving, with a captivating charm that stirred the heart.

This was not something she intentionally displayed, but something she possessed naturally.

"Qingqiu Qianqian greets Daoyou Yuanyang."

The female demon bowed slightly, but there was a hint of nervousness on her face.

She had obviously guessed the identity of the Taoist in front of her. She never imagined that she would encounter such a master in such a small city.

However, she had been living here for a long time, and the rumors she had heard were still from thirty years ago. She did not know what had just happened.

Otherwise, she would not even have the courage to speak.

"This humble Taoist has heard that the Qingqiu fox clan has a secret art that can see through the secrets of heaven. You have been here for several years, even demeaning yourself to a human. What did you see?"

An Qisheng's expression was indifferent, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.

In fact, he was also a little curious.

The female demon's aura was pure, without much bloodiness, indicating that she had not committed any killings.

But why would such a demon be Sun En's death tribulation?

"Daoyou knows quite a bit about my Qingqiu clan."

Qingqiu Qianqian's eyes flickered, and light and shadows flickered in her heart.

She had already used the Qingqiu secret art.

The Qingqiu secret art had the ability to see a corner of the future. As the direct bloodline of Qingqiu, she naturally possessed it.

But no matter how she deduced it, the future she saw was extremely similar.

As long as she made any unusual movements, she would be buried here in the next instant.

Her mind raced, and the more she deduced, the heavier her mood became. Finally, a fine layer of sweat appeared on her smooth forehead.

It seemed that death was inevitable.

An Qisheng didn't seem to be in a hurry, and waited quietly.

"Daoyou, please be clear."

Qingqiu Qianqian gritted her teeth and spoke. As soon as she opened her mouth, she was about to burst into tears, looking pitiful and moving: "To be honest, this junior was also forced to come..."

"Although my Qingqiu lineage has some status, it has been declining in recent years, and each generation is not as good as the previous one. We are no longer a match for the Tianpeng and Shenyuan clans..."

Da!

An Qisheng tapped the table lightly, and said in a cold tone: "Get to the point!"

"...Yes."

Qingqiu Qianqian's voice choked, and she carefully lifted the corner of her clothes, her face becoming even paler:

"It's the Tianyao Pavilion. My Qingqiu clan received instructions from the Tianyao Pavilion to come here and demean myself to Sun Bailu..."

"Tianyao Pavilion..."

An Qisheng tapped the table gently, lost in thought.

The Imperial Continent gave birth to almost all the Emperors and Venerables of this world. It is the source of life in this world, but the struggles on the Imperial Continent are too terrifying.

Over tens of millions of years, countless experts from various clans have escaped into space.

After the changes in the world, even more clans migrated in large numbers. The Imperial Continent, which had lost the halo of a place to attain the Dao, seemed unworthy of such contention.

Among them, there were naturally experts from the demon race.

The Tianyao Pavilion was formed by the first few celestial demons who escaped, and is further divided into major forces such as the War Ape Mountain and the Silver Snake Valley.

It is said that even in the starry sky, it can be considered a powerful force.

"The human race on the Imperial Continent is powerful, and the escaped Tianyao Pavilion was originally nothing, but with the decline of the demon race, the Tianyao Pavilion has become the number one force in the current demon race..."

Qingqiu Qianqian bit her red lips lightly, also with unwillingness.

Demeaning herself to a human was not what she wanted, but the current Qingqiu clan simply did not have the qualifications to resist the orders of the Tianyao Pavilion.

She had no choice but to come, but she also felt greatly humiliated.

"I heard that the Tianyao Pavilion took away the demon race's treasure, the 'Sun Shooting Bow', is that true?"

An Qisheng's eyes flashed.

He remembered the arrows shot from the starry sky that were mentioned when he used the Dao One Diagram to check the fate trajectories of the 'Itinerant Knife Sharpener' and others.

"That's right!"

Qingqiu Qianqian nodded: "Not only the Sun Shooting Bow, but also the Ten Thousand Demon Diagram! There are two treasures in the Ten Thousand Demon Pavilion, both of which are the foundation of our demon race..."

The Tianyao Pavilion's suppression of the demon race was regarded as a great shame by several major clans, but unfortunately, they were not as strong as others and could only endure it.

"You still haven't gotten to the point."

An Qisheng glanced at her coldly, shattering all her luck: "This humble Taoist does not care whether the Tianyao Pavilion is coercing the demon race or not. What I care about is what you want to do here!"

Humans are not necessarily all cunning, and demons are not necessarily all simple. This fox has been in the human race for a long time, but she has learned to avoid the important and dwell on the trivial.

"I..."

Qingqiu Qianqian's heart trembled, feeling an undisguised killing intent, as if if she continued to play dumb, she would be killed on the spot in the next instant.

Immediately, the resistance in her heart was shattered, and she lowered her head, somewhat dejectedly: "Daoyou, didn't you guess it... I came here to seize luck..."

"The Tianyao Pavilion ordered me to come here to meet Sun Bailu, saying that his son would be blessed with great luck, but such a person would inevitably suffer a backlash if touched, unless I gave birth to him myself.

In this way, whether it is seizing luck or taking his life, there will be no more backlash..."

Qingqiu Qianqian abandoned all luck and was about to narrate when she heard the white-haired Taoist in front of her speak coldly:

"You should have died."

"Se-, Senior."

Qingqiu Qianqian's body trembled, somewhat losing her color.

"Considering that all the evil consequences have not yet been done, I will spare your life today..."

An Qisheng did not care how much Qingqiu Qianqian had concealed, he just looked at her indifferently.

"Senior."

Qingqiu Qianqian's face was pale, and she was somewhat unwilling: "This junior asks myself that I have not offended you, and have not offended the human race. Why do you want to kill me?"

"Not everything has to be done before it can be considered evil... Although you have not done it, if I were not in the Sun residence today, the Sun residence would already be littered with corpses."

An Qisheng's eyes were calm, and he slowly raised his palm:

"Although you have not done it, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living penalty cannot be escaped! Today, I will take away your thousand years of cultivation as a small punishment!"

Bang!

The void was like a drum, rippling with layers upon layers.

"Thousand years of cultivation?!"

Qingqiu Qianqian's expression suddenly changed, and her figure flashed, turning into a green light, about to escape through the void.

She was only one thousand two hundred years old since birth. If she was deprived of her thousand years of cultivation, she would almost be reduced to a useless person. How could she be willing?

Therefore, even though she had heard of the name of this Yuanyang Taoist before she came to Dongzhou, she still chose to escape.

Wanting her to surrender, she would never do it!

Whoosh~

The air surged wildly, instantly covering thousands of miles. Qingqiu Qianqian did not dare to look back. Even though her body was still extremely tired, she still fled rapidly.

Using Qingqiu secret arts, she did not even care about her own losses, with only the thought of escaping.

Boom!

Boom!

At the same time, she threw out spiritual treasures, not to defend against the enemy, but to explode, to block possible attacks.

But to her surprise, the white-haired Taoist did not seem to be chasing after her.

But she did not dare to stay in the slightest, swallowing elixirs, using escape techniques, all the way running, only wanting to escape far away.

Whoosh!~

After a long, long time, long enough that there was no longer any aura around, Qingqiu Qianqian finally landed, letting out a long breath.

"West of Dongzhou is all plains, when did five large mountains appear?"

Just as she breathed a sigh of relief, Qingqiu Qianqian's heart suddenly rose again. In the distance, there were five towering mountains standing in the clouds.

Her eyesight was very good, and faintly, she could still see a few figures looming under the five high mountains.

But they seemed to be suppressed under the mountains.

"That's not right!"

Qingqiu Qianqian was suddenly shocked, and looked up, only to see a pair of deep eyes in the highest part of the misty sky, as if the sun and moon were in the same sky.

Were staring at her indifferently.

She had escaped for so long, but, but...

Qingqiu Qianqian's heart turned cold, and all the desires in her heart disappeared for a moment, frozen, standing still in place.
