After rebirth, he became the favorite of the Moon Goddess.

Zixu Academy, outside Zixu Hall.

Just as Jiuge and Qin Xuan were talking, the arena competition not far away had already begun.

"Hush-hush-hush-"

As a series of sword lights flashed across, a young man in blue robe became the first disciple to win.

Immediately afterwards, there were several more sharp breaking sounds, and the two young men landed one after another, successfully winning the competition.

Tang Liu was the fourth to step into the ring. His opponent was Dai Yuntao, a direct descendant of the Tianxuan Sect. Dai Yuntao was 23 years old and a seventh-level great spiritual master, one of the best among the disciples of his age.

After Dai Yuntao stepped onto the ring, he directly sacrificed his sword. Upon seeing this, Tang Liu immediately took out a sword and faced him.

"clang--"

"clang--"

"clang--"

The two swords collided and sparks flew out.

Although Tang Liu was already a sixth-level great spiritual master, Dai Yuntao's cultivation level was one level higher than his, so Tang Liu did not have any advantage during the fight.

However, he did not give up. Instead, he fought more and more bravely. Every move and every move was at the cost of serious injury, and he attacked Dai Yuntao crazily.

"Master, do you think Senior Brother Tang Liu can win today?" Jiuge asked nervously.

"Tang Liu's cultivation is considered top-notch among the disciples. Whether it is talent or understanding, he is not bad. However, his opponent today is too powerful." Qin Xuan sighed.

Hearing this, Jiuge was silent for a while, and then couldn't help but look at the ring again, his eyes full of worry.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind the two of them, "Master, I have something to report."

Hearing the voice, Qin Xuan turned his head and saw Xue Sui wearing the white robe of Tianxin Academy standing behind him. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly found that the other person's face was not very good, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Jiuge looked at Xue Sui, his eyebrows slightly raised, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Master, Junior Brother Ozawa is back." Xue Sui lowered his head and said slowly.

"Oze? He's back?" Qin Xuan was startled for a moment, then quickly asked: "Where is he now?"

"Junior Brother Ozawa has returned to Ziwu Inn, but..." At this point, Xue Sui paused for a moment before continuing: "But looking at Junior Brother Ozawa, he seems to be injured. By the way, he was injured. Someone sent it back.”

"What are you talking about? Ozawa is injured??" Jiuge stared at Xue Sui in disbelief, "Is he seriously injured??"

"Junior sister, don't worry. Junior brother Ozawa just doesn't look very good. The specific situation is not clear yet..." Xue Sui said hurriedly.

"No, no matter how injured he is, I have to go see him!!" After Jiuge said that, he stood up and prepared to leave.

"Ge'er, wait a minute!" Seeing this, Qin Xuan quickly called out to Jiu Ge.

"Master, are you okay?" Jiuge turned to look at him.

Qin Xuan nodded, "Ge'er, tell Xiao Ze that His Majesty the Seventh Prince is leading people around to search for his whereabouts. He must be careful. I will go back to the inn to find you as soon as the assessment is over."

"Yes, Master, I understand." Jiuge nodded, turned around and ran quickly outside the Zixu Palace.

……

Ziwu Inn.

In the guest room on the third floor, Nangong Yueze was sitting on the bed with his eyes closed and resting. His face was slightly pale and his mental state was not very good.

"Your Highness, are you sure you don't want to rest for a few more days in Yin Yue Pavilion?" Su Ho asked softly.

Nangong Yueze shook his head, "No need, now Nangong Jingzheng is sending people everywhere to look for me. If I don't come back, I'm afraid everyone in Tianxin Academy will be implicated."

"I just don't understand why you, the majestic Moon God in heaven, have to get entangled with these mortals in the mortal world?" Su Ho couldn't help but say.

After hearing this, Nangong Yueze opened his eyes and said slowly: "It's a coincidence that I came to the mortal world just to avoid the marriage granted by my father. But then my master Qionghua Shenjun told me There is a reason why my father did this. Master is right, my existence has never been just for myself. I also shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting the Three Realms."

"Is it possible that you really want to marry that water tribe princess as your concubine?" Su Ho asked with a frown.

"Since some things cannot be changed, then just accept it." Nangong Yueze said lightly.

"Hey, okay." Su Ho sighed softly, "Then what are you planning to do?"

Nangong Yueze turned to look out the window and said in a calm tone: "I have thought about it, I will return to the heaven in advance. As for Nangong Yueze's identity, I will treat it as my experience in the mortal world..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door to the guest room was suddenly pushed open, and a figure burst in panting.

Seeing the sudden appearance of Jiuge, Nangong Yueze's eyes flashed with surprise, "Why are you here?"

"Oze, you are finally back. Senior brother Xue Sui came to tell us that you were injured. What happened?" Jiuge walked quickly to Nangong Yueze and asked.

Nangong Yueze was startled for a moment, then a faint smile appeared on his handsome and gentle face, "You came back in a hurry just to see me?"

"I..." A blush suddenly appeared on Jiuge's pretty face. After hesitating for a long time, she said: "Everyone is worried about you. You have been gone for half a month, and we can't find you anywhere. Your whereabouts." Looking at her anxious eyes, the arc at the corner of Nangong Yueze's mouth gradually widened, "Is everyone worried about me, or are you worried about me??"

Hearing this, Jiuge's ears turned completely red, "Of course...of course everyone is worried about you...I...I just..."

"Haha..." Nangong Yueze raised his lips and smiled.

"Okay, you haven't answered my question yet. What happened to you?" Jiuge blinked and asked.

"I..." Nangong Yueze hesitated for a while, and then said: "I'm fine, I just accidentally injured my soul while practicing, I just need to rest for a while and it will be fine."

"Hurt the soul?" Jiuge's eyes widened.

In her memory, this was the first time she heard the word 'Yuan Shen'.

Seeing Jiu Ge's surprised expression, Su Ho coughed lightly and continued: "Little girl, every cultivator has a soul, but many cultivators' souls are relatively weak and cannot be condensed into shape. They need to go through continuous cultivation. Your cultivation ability will gradually become stronger."

"Wouldn't it be troublesome if the soul is injured?" Jiuge asked with a frown.

"Of course, if the soul is injured, if you are not careful, it will cause serious consequences. If the damaged soul cannot be restored, the level of cultivation will fall, which will directly affect the breakthrough and advancement of cultivation in the future." Su Ho Said seriously.

"Ah!! It's so serious??" Hearing Su Ho's words, Jiu Ge opened his eyes wide in surprise.

"Well, there are medicines that can be used to treat ordinary trauma, but if the soul is damaged, it might be difficult..." At this point, Su Ho stopped and did not continue. After a while, she sighed softly and said : "That's all, you are still young, and you don't understand many things. You just need to know that the path of cultivation is far from as simple as you think."

"..." Jiuge obviously didn't know how to answer the question. Looking at Nangong Yueze's pale cheeks, she felt a faint feeling of pity in her heart.

"Okay, Su Ho, don't talk so much to Jiuge. If you keep talking, she will really be frightened by your words." Nangong Yueze interrupted Su Ho at the right time.

"Okay, I'll just leave it alone." Su Ho shrugged, "It's still early, so I'll go for a walk in Zixu City by myself. Little girl, Senior Brother Ozawa will be in your care."

After saying that, she turned around and left the room.

Soon, only Nangong Yueze and Jiuge were left in the room. After taking a deep breath, Nangong Yueze slowly retracted his gaze, lowered his eyes, and prepared to continue to concentrate on regulating his breath. Just as he closed his eyes, he seemed to remember What did he say, he looked at Jiuge and asked: "By the way, I haven't seen you for half a month, have you decided whether to stay or not?"

Jiu Ge gave a light "Yes" and said, "It's decided. I am Master Qin Lang's disciple. No matter what, I will stay at Tianxin Academy for three years. When I reach the level of a Great Spiritual Master, I can participate based on my own ability. Zixu Academy assessment."

Hearing Jiuge's words, Nangong Yueze paused for a moment, then smiled slightly and said, "This is a good decision of yours. I think Senior Helian will also respect your decision."

Jiuge nodded, "I hope so." After saying that, she came to Nangong Yueze and said softly: "By the way, Xiaoze, you haven't had breakfast yet, I'll get you some food. "

"Okay, thank you, Junior Sister Jiuge." Nangong Yueze nodded slightly.

Leaving the guest room, Jiuge went straight to the first floor of the inn. She asked the waiter for some food, then sat on a stool in the lobby and waited quietly.

After about a cup of tea, Li Yangming, dressed in a dark golden brocade robe, suddenly barged in with several imperial guards.

Without saying a word, the few people rushed towards the third floor.

Jiuge frowned and hurriedly chased after him. As soon as she reached the corner of the stairs on the third floor, she saw Li Yangming breaking into Nangong Yueze's room.

What are they going to do? ? ! !

Jiuge's heart tightened.

She suddenly remembered what Qin Xuan told her before, that Nangong Jing was leading people to search for the whereabouts of Nangong Yueze.

If this is the case, these people must have been sent by Nangong Jing.

How to do? ?How to do? ?

Do you want to rush in and stop them?
But the other party was coming fiercely, and since he had no cultivation, he couldn't help Nangong Yueze at all.

With his thoughts flying, Jiu Ge raised his feet and was about to run downstairs. At this moment, two familiar figures appeared at the door of the inn.

It's Helian Wenyan and Qin Xuan!

"Two Masters!!!" Jiuge's eyes ignited with hope, and he immediately shouted to them, "Hurry up and save Ozawa, someone just broke into his room!"

Hearing Jiuge's call, Qin Xuan and Helian Wenyan frowned at the same time, took quick steps, and ran up towards the third floor.

As soon as the two of them arrived at the door, they saw Nangong Yueze being thrown out by a strong momentum.

"Ozawa!!!!"

Qin Xuan's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly stepped forward to support Nangong Yueze who was retreating.

Nangong Yueze glanced at the person next to him, then fainted in Qin Xuan's arms.

"Oze, wake up! Wake up!!" Qin Xuan picked up the unconscious Nangong Yueze and shouted.

Seeing this, Helian Wenyan quickly stepped forward to check on Nangong Yueze's condition.

The aura in Nangong Yueze's body was very chaotic, and his body was very weak. After noticing all this, Helian Wenyan's entire face darkened. He stared at Li Yangming in the room with cold and terrifying eyes, and asked in a cold voice: "You What exactly was done to this child??!!”
