Lord Jiyue's face looked ugly. He plucked the strings harder, stuck with the new sound. Han Zhang and Wenying stared blankly at the source of the sound, their faces filled with disbelief. They never expected that they would meet Wen Jiu again at this juncture... No, shouldn't it be reasonable for him to appear here?
He was still dressed in long clothes, looking like a handsome young man. The flute in his hand was like a piece of fresh bamboo, so green that it was incompatible with the vast vermilion. When did he come here? Did he just arrive, or has he been waiting for a long time? Neither Han Chang nor Wenying knew because they couldn't detect his aura.
A scent that should be extremely familiar to them.
"Warm wine...!"
Han Zhang was somewhat disturbed. After all, this was his first meeting with Wen Jiu after many years of separation, and Wenying had already met him before. Compared to Hanshang, Wenying seems to be much calmer, but it is impossible to say that there is no disturbance at all. Wen Jiu gently moved the instrument away from his lips, and Lord Jiyue also stopped his hand in a cooperative manner. What is this guy going to say?
"Ask Ying... you were really careless." He said gently, "You lost the farewell gift I gave you. However, this may have been predestined - so we meet again here. "
Wenying was a little at a loss and her face was slightly hot. She hoped it wouldn't be so obvious against the backdrop of the desert. Indeed, she lost the agate-carved Xun, but now Wenjiu already knows about it. It is a pair with the flute. Originally, if she would never meet again, she would be able to stop thinking about him. Now that Wenjiu appeared in front of them again, she was somewhat shaken.
How could a relationship of so many years be broken up so easily?
"What are you doing here?!"
This scream actually made the fox brothers and sisters sober up. They looked at Ling Huan, who asked angrily about the uninvited guest, which made Wenying feel grateful. Ling Huan swept away his previous timidity and shouted rather aggressively:
"Are you deliberately here to disgust your two old friends? You have avoided them for so many years, and they have been looking for you for so many years, and now, you still have the nerve to show up openly like this? I don't know what your reasons are. I only know that you have made my current friends sad! The friendship between childhood sweethearts can be so cheap in your eyes, I really feel worthless for them!"
This was a somewhat emotional speech, definitely not rational, and it was also very different from Ling Yu, who usually thought about and had many concerns. But it was obvious that she was really angry, and this anger even made her temporarily forget that she was in a dangerous battlefield. But this posture actually made Wen Jiu startled slightly, and then he smiled lightly.
"She really looks like your sister... not only in appearance, but also in temperament. It would be a bit unbelievable to say that we are not blood sisters."
"Stop changing the subject here!" She seemed even more angry.
Facing Wen Jiu's rescue, Tao Zhu didn't seem so grateful. She complained:
"That's awesome. If you had come later, I don't know how much more embarrassed my brother and I would have been."
"I'm really sorry about that. There's something going on over there...the two of them are going to demolish Lan's hometown."
"I don't care about him."
"What?!" Ling Huan exclaimed, "Ah - what happened to Xie Zhe and Master Lintian?"
Wen Jiu shook his head gently and responded: "You don't have to be so nervous. If there was only one named Xie, I would still have room to resist. But that Master Lintian has a very deep Taoist practice, so I also fell into some embarrassment. situation. It should be good news for them: I failed to stop them, so I escaped here. However, it may also be bad news that hinders you."
"Don't talk nonsense to them, just get rid of them like this." Tao Zhuyou said resentfully, "I still remember the revenge of my broken arm to this day."
Wen Jiu shook his head again.
"Miss Tao, please don't forget that this is not within the scope of our work. I came here out of my own will...and the same goes for you. Come to think of it, you have not actually received the order of Wuyonglan's garrison. It’s a mission in the world, right?”
Tao Zhu was obviously stunned. Wen Jiu showed no mercy and continued:
"You are here, as if you are telling everyone clearly where the lies are hiding, and how to find them fastest. But in order to mobilize these puppets, you just greeted him, and he (this chapter is not over yet!)
Chapter 436: Zhumo Sheben
You didn't take a stand, so you just acquiesced. Guess, why didn't he say anything? "
"H-How do I know?"
"Well...actually I don't know enough. But if I insist on saying the reason why you are here, maybe I can make a rough guess. Oh, I don't want to say it in front of all the guests, so I'll do it for you Just keep it a mystery. But the most obvious thing is that you are still evil and still covet that girl's arm. After all, that is the only place in the world besides Death Shadow Pavilion where the power of Ghost Fairy Girl remains. …”
"What?"
Several people were stunned for a moment, not understanding the meaning of his words, but they all felt a little uneasy. He didn't show off when he warmed the wine, and told them frankly, saying:
"Gui Xiangu is dead."
"How……"
Ling Huan turned around and glanced at Lord Jiyue, but he remained silent.
"Is this, is this true..."
People kept dying.
People kept dying to help them.
Is this the right path? To be honest, they don't even know what path they are taking. There are overgrown weeds under our feet and dense thorns in front of our eyes. Looking back on the path we once took, we are unaware of the dangers until now. Although that was not their intention at first. Along the way, they never refused tasks that were not theirs.
But who makes them this way?
Han Chang looked at Wen Jiu again, his eyes so determined, and the previous confusion seemed to be just a momentary hallucination.
"If you don't want to say it, I don't want this answer. This is the path you and I have chosen, and I just have to accept it."
"..."
Wen Jiu's expression calmed down a bit. He probably didn't expect Han Chang to answer like this. But he quickly raised his lips again and said with a smile:
"You have really changed a lot. To this day, I am still grateful to you, and I still believe that you are my senior brother in my heart. But... I think I am no longer qualified to sit in the position of your senior brother in your heart. It's a pity. But I You know, this is also my own choice. It’s useless to say more... just continue the fight that I interrupted.”
In an instant, his instrument was brought to his mouth again, and Lord Jiyue immediately played the instrument as if he saw it with his own eyes. Lord Kisaragi's movements became very stiff and uncontrollable, as if he were a marionette, while two people above him were fighting for the threads. Her movements were disorganized and she couldn't even take a normal step, which was very different from her smooth movements before.
It seemed that Wenjiu was deliberately targeting Lord Jiyue, and he had to find other ways to defeat Tao Zhu. Among those who can fight, if he wants to disrupt the rhythm of Wenjiu, Han Shang can only be his opponent. But this is still a bit cruel. To Han Sheng, this is still a drama of fratricide. Although it was not impossible, in this case, the only one who had to deal with Tao Zhu was Wenying. Han Zhang was somewhat aware of it during the previous battle - he did get close to Tao Zhu a few times, but he just missed. He clearly saw some blue luster passing over her skin that shouldn't belong to her.
"I guess Wuyonglan put a curse on her." He said to the other three people.
"How could this happen?" Wenying seemed to be frightened, "Isn't this only what big monsters do to control little monsters? This is an unequal contract. Although many monsters do this in order to make themselves stronger, She does not hesitate to attach herself to more powerful demons and become their dependents to gain power...but this will also limit herself. How could she do such a cocoon?"
Jiyue Jun said while playing the piano: "You also heard Wenjiu say that this was her own action. I don't know if he intentionally revealed this information, but it can be judged from this that in addition to coveting Miss Ye's ghost hand, she also She had other purposes. She came to stop us voluntarily, and it was also obvious that she was lying, but he did not stop her. It was probably part of the plan to invite you to the urn. Putting aside the lies, from Tao Zhu's point of view, she probably had something My own plan, and this is a lie that some people care about..."
Tao Zhu really didn't give them any time to chat, and it was obvious that she was eager to solve the obstacle in front of her. She and Tao Ji launched an attack together, but Han Sheng and Wenying parried in time. The battle started again, and the panic resurfaced in Ling Huan's heart. She really wished she could do something, but to this day, she still couldn't use the power of the ghost hand flexibly. No, they wouldn't want her to do that either. As Kanna-kun said, if affected by the shadow, the erosion will be intensified (this chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 436: Zhumo Sheben
, her whole body is at risk of losing control.
The scene was extremely chaotic, and the quiet Zhusha Desert ushered in such a noisy night. Maybe it wasn't the first time, nor was it the last time, but there was a long time before and after. Countless footprints fell on the red sand, belonging to monsters, humans, and dead people. Han Zhang and Wenying were getting more and more tired. They really didn't know where the strength of this banshee came from. Even if she devoted her energy to controlling another being, her combat effectiveness was still the same as before. But during the tug-of-war, they also confirmed their suspicion - the arm she occasionally exposed was indeed branded with demonic patterns of lies.
Why do we need to do this?
At this point, the answer could not be obtained from her. Like them, since this is the path she has chosen, she must take responsibility for it. Her demonic power is endless and her energy is still abundant. Even though she already looked so disheveled and lost all her grace. She may still have some strength left, but her spirit is already in jeopardy. It seems that she only has one thought in her mind, which is to eradicate all the guys who come here without leaving any one behind.
Once again escaping Tao Zhu's fierce attack, Han Zhang felt like he was running out of breath. Really, how much energy does this guy have left? Looking at the disorderly but thick and ferocious branches that were actually growing in front of them, he and Wenying felt from the bottom of their hearts that the banshee had gone completely crazy. But even so, they still can't even defeat a madman.
Without giving him any time to spare, she attacked again. This time it was Taoji who was cutting through thorns and thorns. He was completely unhindered by plants and could cut through hallucinations as easily. Behind him, Tao Zhu, whose eyes were red with blood, glared at the two of them fiercely, which actually made Wenying afraid to step forward.
"hateful--"
At this time, a faint female voice came.
"Tao Zhu! Look here -"
At that moment, her pupils shrank suddenly.
