Chapter 285 Rosefinch and Black Crane

Thousands of years ago, the divine realm.

On the lotus pond, the beautiful and flexible dance posture of the white crane spirit beast made the god Qiansu, who had just quarreled with his son Rosefinch, smile again. He stretched out a hand and summoned the white crane beast to his side.

This is the highest honor for the white crane spirit beast. He flew up gracefully, stepped on the surface of the water and walked slowly towards the gods, and gradually transformed into a human form. When he came to the god Qiansu, he knelt on the ground and kissed his hands. Then raise your head and enjoy the endless love from the Lord of the Divine Realm.

not far away, the black crane Mei Jue looked at all this, and the flame of jealousy burned in his chest and almost burst out of his eyes. He clenched his fist and turned away. Before he came far, a figure appeared in front of him. He recognized that the tall and handsome man was the rosefinch, the eldest son of the god Qiansu. His status and power in the divine realm are second only to that of the god Qiansu himself, which can be said to be below one person and above ten thousand people.

A ghostly smile appeared on the black crane's face. He looked at the rosefinch. If he could make good use of this person, he would definitely have a chance to beat the white crane. And what he wants is not just to win him. He wants to make the gods regret it.

Before arriving at the divine realm, the black crane lived in a huge lake and was the leader of all the birds in that lake. His beauty was always a little charming and seemed to be magical. Anyone who had seen him could not take their eyes off him.

When he first entered the divine realm, he was eager to attract the attention of Tianshen Qiansu, but in the end, Tianshen Qiansu only spoiled the white crane that entered the divine realm at about the same time as him. This made him feel strongly jealous, more like being humiliated. He was determined to take revenge, and now he has finally found a weapon that can be used.

The loneliness of the rosefinch is famous in the divine realm. As the eldest son of the lord of the divine realm, he has had to become the focus of attention since he was born. In order to cover up his weakness, his father taught him to hide deeply. When others can't figure out what he thinks, it is difficult to have a chance to attack him. From a very young age, he understood the difference between himself and his three younger brothers and watched them play together carefreely. Although he was envious, he only forced himself to restrain his desire. He spent all his time reading the endless collection of books and practicing divine power in the temple.

It's not easy to get close to him. A little carelessness may annoy him and cause trouble for himself. But the black crane decided to let go. He found some of the same characteristics as himself from the seemingly invincible eyes of the rosefinch. Especially today, the cold face of the rosefinch is rarely red, as if it has just quarreled with someone, and the black crane recalls that the face of Tianshen Qiansu who had just seen it in the pool is also very bad. He also remembered that there had been rumors that the relationship between father and son was not harmonious in the first place, so he thought of the possibility of quarreling with the rosefinch. It is the god Qiansu himself.

This is a good opportunity for him. In addition to his dancing skills that are not inferior to that of white cranes, the black crane is better at singing. The character Jue in his name represents the crisp and beautiful sound when two pieces of jade collided. At that time, Tianshen Qiansu gave him this name precisely because of this meaning.

He hid in the branches and leaves of a big tree and hummed a small tune that was often sung in the demon world. It was a sad song, and the lyrics described the parting with his lover in the drizzle.

The rosefinch, who had just been annoyed by the quarrel with his father, was suddenly deeply attracted by the song from nowhere, so he looked around. He finally heard that the song came from a big tree, but through the dense branches and leaves, even if he went under the tree, he could not see the singer's face clearly.

"Hey, show your face!" The rosefinch ordered at the figure hiding in the branches and leaves.

The black crane's singing was interrupted. He pretended not to know the identity of the rosefinch and answered coldly, "A rude person."

"Hehe, so bold! In this divine realm, there is still someone who dares to call me like that!"

The rosefinch sneered. He had always been a happy person, but at this moment, he really wanted to vent his anger after quarreling with his father on the person in front of him.

"No matter who you are, it's rude to interrupt other people's singing."

The black crane first poked its face out of the tree, and then jumped off the branch, like a butterfly, coming to the rosefinch. But at the moment of landing, he slipped clumsily and jumped into the arms of the rosefinch, who quickly stretched out his hand to hold him.

Seeing the true face of the singer, the rosefinch's eyes lit up. He had never noticed that there would be such a beautiful person in the divine realm before. His long black hair on his head is as shiny and drooping as black velvet, and his pale skin and slender neck reveal elegance like a lotus. The most beautiful thing is his purple pupils, as bright as two purple gems.

The beauty who suddenly appeared in front of him made the rosefinch silent for a while, and then remembered to ask, "You are..."

"I am a spirit beast living near the lotus pond, the black crane charm." The tone of the black crane is as beautiful as when he sings.

"Oh, it turned out to be the new favorite brought back by my father from the demon world." The rosefinch, who was still angry with his father, said disdain when he mentioned him.

"Father?!" The black crane deliberately pretended to be frightened and asked.

"Yes, I'm his eldest son." The rosefinch shook his head expressionlessly, thinking that there were still people in this divine realm who didn't recognize him. It was really strange.

"The little one is really damned, with no eyes... Please forgive me, Lord Rosefinch!" The black crane knelt to the ground in a panic.

"Well, then punish you to sing another song for me." The rosefinch thought for a moment.

"Yes!"

The black crane slowly raised his face, and the afterglow of the sunset coated his cheeks with a layer of gold. He sang another song.

The rosefinch was completely intoxicated by his singing and couldn't extricate himself and couldn't bear to leave. It was from that day on that he regarded the black crane as a confidant. Whenever he was burdened by rights and responsibilities, he would come to the black crane and let his singing relieve his worries.

Everything is developing in the direction expected by the black crane. The rosefinch's dependence on him is increasing day by day, and even the contradictions between him and his father and brothers, and the various secrets in the divine realm are not hidden from him. Because of the gentleness and understanding of the black crane, his dependence gradually turned into a morbid possessiveness. In order to leave the black crane by his side, he did not hesitate to pay any price.

And the black crane took advantage of this just right. As long as he moved his wrist a little, he could make the rosefinch obey him. He also heard about the divine charm from the rosefinch. The rosefinch told him that because the charm contains part of the divine power of his father's god Qianju, it has extraordinary energy, so with it, anyone can become comparable to God.

So the charm became the biggest target of the black crane. He encouraged the rosefinch to steal the charm for himself, and then he would rely on the charm to gain strength and assist the rosefinch to usurp power. He made him believe in his rhetoric that as long as he could become the lord of the divine realm, he could be completely liberated. The seemingly wise rosefinch became extremely naive in front of love. He agreed to him without hesitation, but he agreed with him that he could not hurt his father and brothers in any case.

The rosefinch really stole the magic charm for the black crane, but after getting the magic charm, the black crane still had time to get the divine power from it, and was seriously injured in the battle with the white crane. The white crane fell into the demon world with the divine charm, and its whereabouts have been unknown since then. The black crane was caught by the god and imprisoned in the black fire purgatory.

Before he was sentenced to black fire purgatory by the god at that time, the rosefinch was still begging his father, hoping that his father could open up and take the black crane lightly. Looking at his son who was completely confused by the black crane, Tianshen Qiansu felt that he was so strange. He was both angry and sad, and also felt deep guilt and pity for his son. But everyone's eyes were focused on him. He had to punish the son who stole the charm, but in the end, he still couldn't cruelly put his son in the black fire purgatory.

"As a father, I couldn't treat my son fairly, so I made another terrible mistake!"

Tianshen Qiansu looked at the Feather Crane Fairy in front of him and said that he could see that he had remembered everything, and his painful and desperate expression was enough to show how great the impact was when this memory was awakened again.

"So how did you deal with him?" The Yuhe fairy reluctantly cheered up and asked.

"I stripped out the part of his soul that I thought caused him to make a mistake."

"What?"

"Yes, including his hatred for me, his twisted feelings for the black crane, his desire for freedom, his fear of his own rights, and even his simplicity and kindness that are easy to be used, and that memory... Now he is completely different from the past."

"You mean that all his emotions have been stripped off?! So what's the difference from a puppet?!"

"I thought he would be relaxed without these, but now he doesn't even have the ability to be happy. He is like a precise machine. No matter what order I give, he will finish it without any difference."

"I can't figure out how the soul of the black crane came from the black fire purgatory with the help of the soul. I once tried to use the soul to enter the black fire purgatory, but failed."

"Someone helped him. Although on the surface, his plan to get the key through the strange array and enter the Blackfire purgatory was not successful, in fact, it used this array method to open a door, a door that only the soul can pass through."

"Qingyun... Why did he help the black crane? He came to me a long time ago, that is, he wanted me to enter the black fire purgatory through the soul to meet someone. Now I finally know that that person is the black crane."

"I intended to destroy the part that was stripped from the soul of the rosefinch immediately, but I didn't succeed."
