Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1050 White Moon Brahma Star 15

After all, for Tianhuo and Zangshan, the third heart fire is the most important thing at the moment. Anyway, they don't believe that Jiang Xinxin can really let Bai Shuo take out the Wunian Stone without any harm, because the Wunian Stone is a divine object after all, and it cannot be compared with just any thing. They are sure that Bai Shuo is probably the reincarnation of the Goddess of Stars and Moon. Even if not, Bai Shuo, who can make the Wunian Stone recognize him as his master, has a bright future that is visibly bright.

During the Wutong Martial Banquet, the people of the foreign city prayed. Chong Zhao followed Jiang Xinxin and saw a hint of surprise on Jiang Xinxin's face. He quickly explained, "The foreigners were abandoned by all tribes and had no gods to protect them. So over time, they developed the custom of lighting lanterns to pray for blessings, to remind themselves that it is better to rely on themselves than on others."

This did make Jiang Xinxin somewhat appreciative, but the current situation in Yicheng was not something that could be relied upon, and Yiren had been living in Yicheng for too long, and he was afraid that he had long forgotten such an ambition.

There were too many people lighting lanterns and praying around, so Jiang Xinxin couldn't say anything discouraging, and just kept silent. Chong Zhao saw that the atmosphere had cooled down again, and anxiously saw Bai Shuo and Fan Yue holding lanterns with wishes written on them and preparing to release them. He suddenly got an idea and hurriedly called Jiang Xinxin, "Miss Feng, why don't we join in the fun too. I'll go buy two lanterns right now, and please wait here for a while."

As soon as Chongzhao finished speaking, he almost disappeared. Jiang Xinxin wanted to hold him back but before she could, Chongzhao came back with two purple sky lanterns and some writing brushes and ink.

He cast a spell to light the lantern first, and while waiting for it to fly, he handed the pen filled with ink to Jiang Xinxin and said with a smile, "Miss Feng, write down your wish quickly. I'll help you hold the sky lantern."

Jiang Xinxin was no longer old enough to release sky lanterns to pray for blessings, but she could not refuse Chongzhao's kindness, so she only wrote down four small words "I don't ask for anything else" and asked Chongzhao to write down his wish as well.

Chong Zhao was originally very happy to see that Jiang Xinxin still thought of asking him to write down his wish, but it was obvious that Jiang Xinxin had no intention of letting him see her write down her wish. He couldn't help but feel a bit gloomy in his happiness. But overall, he felt that being able to release sky lanterns with Jiang Xinxin was a big progress in itself.

Chong Zhao's thoughts were so obvious, and Jiang Xinxin was not blind that she couldn't see anything. She was really curious, so when she was away from the crowd of people releasing sky lanterns, she asked directly: "Chong Zhao, if I remember correctly, before we came to Yicheng, we didn't have much friendship, right? Why did you change so much?"

When asked this by Jiang Xinxin, Chongzhao immediately wanted to escape from here, because he knew that the next words were definitely not what he wanted to hear.

Without waiting for Jiang Xinxin to ask again, Chongzhao directly excused himself by saying "Miss Feng, the Wutong Martial Arts Banquet is about to begin. Chongzhao will take his leave now."

Jiang Xinxin felt a little depressed by Chongzhao's change, but she had no idea about Wutong Wuyan. She was more concerned about the Wunian Stone in Bai Shuo's body. But Bai Shuo also went to the palace at this time, and she wanted to take the opportunity to obtain the Wunian Stone, so she followed him.

The alien king Hua Lin announced publicly at the Wutong Martial Banquet that after tonight, he would open the alien city and let the aliens into the world. Unexpectedly, this move attracted a lot of ridicule from the immortals and monsters, but Hua Lin insisted on doing it without changing his expression. Bai Shuo and Fan Yue and his party immediately felt that something was wrong, but at the moment the whereabouts of the Wutong Heart Fire prevailed, so they could only stay.

The next moment, the alien king Hua Lin invited the immortals and demons to join him in lighting the Wutong branches and the third heart fire. "There are three Wutong heart fires at a time, but the last one is too dim at the beginning. It can only be awakened successfully with the blessing of the first two heart fires. This is also the origin of the name Wutong Wuyan."

Bai Shuo had no choice but to temporarily hand over the first two heart fires for the sake of the third heart fire. The three tribes jointly lit the paulownia branches to awaken the third heart fire. The hall became a mess, and Tianhuo took the opportunity to get the three heart fires and handed them over to Bai Shuo in an instant.

Bai Shuo wanted to leave immediately. Chong Zhao saw Bai Shuo in danger, looked at Jiang Xinxin beside him, hesitated and did not go up to help him immediately.

Jiang Xinxin was speechless and pushed Zhong Zhao. "Since you are worried about Bai Shuo's safety, why don't you go up and help!"

Chong Zhao felt that he had received Jiang Xinxin's permission, and immediately smiled, "Miss Feng, you have to be careful, I'll be back soon."

Although Fuling came to Yicheng, she was not interested in either Wutong Heart Fire or Wutong Elixir, and even allowed Chongzhao to do whatever he wanted in Yicheng. She herself ambushed in the underground palace and captured Fan Yue, Bai Shuo and Chongzhao who had fallen into her trap.

Fuling's face suddenly turned very ugly when she saw Chongzhao, "It seems that you have forgotten the mystery of your parents' death, and you have also forgotten that you are now a seat in Lengquan Palace!"

"If you capture Bai Shuo and Fan Yue and bring them here immediately, I will naturally speak well of you in front of Master. Otherwise, just wait for Master's punishment."

Chong Zhao, however, was quick-witted and lied in front of Fan Yue and Bai Shuo with his eyes open: "I have already agreed with Bai Shuo that I will ask for one for the Palace Master after I get the Wutong Elixir. This elixir is rare and I believe it will be of some use to the Palace Master."

Bai Shuo and Chong Zhao also had some tacit understanding, and quickly nodded to confirm that this was true: "Chong Zhao is right, we already have three Wutong Heart Fires, and the Wutong Spiritual Pill must be in our pocket. Chong Zhao helped us today, and one Wutong Spiritual Pill is the reward he deserves."

But Fuling didn't believe it at all, and directly captured Fan Yue and Chong Zhao, asking Bai Shuo to choose between them.

On the other side, Tianhuo used three fake Wutong Heart Fires to lead to the courtyard where her mother Mei Han lived before her death. After cutting off Hua Lin's retreat, Tianhuo began to accuse Hua Lin: "How dare you, a mere alien, try to create a god? Do you think that gods are something you can touch? You will only harm yourself and the entire alien race by doing this!"

Hua Lin was full of confidence, and even seemed to see the upcoming victory. He softened his attitude towards Tianhuo, the daughter he had always regarded as rebellious, and said, "Hong'er, you have always blamed me for sacrificing your mother, so you tried to destroy the Yi Wang Sword. I don't blame you for all this, because I also thought about doing that."

"At the beginning, I agreed with your mother to put on a show. I even gave her the fire-proof beads in advance and dug a passage under the furnace. When the time comes, as long as your mother goes up and shows her face, our family of four can still stay together forever—"

Tianhuo didn't believe that Hua Lin would have any other arrangements. "But the fact is that my mother was burned to death in the furnace. She didn't get the fire-proof beads, and there was not even a so-called passage under the furnace!"

Hua Lin has been investigating the fire-proof beads and the passage over the years, but unfortunately he hired the wrong person. Wuzhao suddenly turned against him and denounced Hua Lin's incompetence without hiding his ambition. It was at this time that Hua Lin and Tianhuo, the father and daughter who had been at odds for a long time, realized how many misunderstandings and calculations there were in the past.
