It's Lu Qi.
He stood up from the ground with a pale face.
His figure was a little shaky, but he still looked at Xiang An, who was standing on the black tide in front of him with burning eyes.
"Huh?" Hearing this, Xiang An turned to look at Lu Qi.
He raised his brows, and the black tide beneath his feet surged again, pushing his body to Lu Qi's side.
He squinted his eyes, and in the narrow slits, his pupils took on a strange and slender oval shape, with blood-like scarlet red beating in the depths.
Xiang An stared at Lu Qi with a strange expression on his face, and his piercing gaze seemed to peel off Lu Qi's flesh and blood, reaching straight to his soul.
Lu Qi felt goosebumps rising all over his body, and an almost instinctive fear made his body tremble slightly.
"You care so much about that girl named Zhou Ling'er. I threatened her life and you were not willing to sacrifice yourself to me. Why have you suddenly changed your mind now?"
"Why, they are more important in your heart than Zhou Ling'er?" Xiang An asked sinisterly in a high-pitched voice.
"She trusts you so much..."
Xiang An said, his body was like a poisonous snake, driven by the black tide, gently turning around Lu Qi.
His voice was high-pitched, like the sound of sharp nails scratching the surface of a smooth metal object.
Harsh, sharp.
At the same time, it also carries a breathtaking magical power.
As he spoke, dense traces of sweat suddenly appeared on Lu Qi's forehead.
The scene when Zhou Linger died almost uncontrollably flashed through his mind.
The despair in her eyes, her disappearing breath, and the scarlet color that overflowed and spread from under her body all began to flash back and forth in Lu Qi's mind very clearly.
All of this made Lu Qi almost collapse.
He arched his body, his eyes were red, and he let out a low growl of pain.
And this is exactly what Xiang An wants to see.
A smile appeared on his face, and with the support of the black tide, he came to Lu Qi again.
At that moment, the facial features on his face began to surge, his face became delicate, his body became slender, and his stretched out hand became a little whiter.
Chu Qingxiao and Lu Sandao, who were trapped by the divine turbid water on their bodies, could not escape, but they raised their heads with difficulty and looked at the situation here worriedly.
And when they looked at the scene in front of them, their faces showed horror.
Xiang An's appearance changed in just the blink of an eye, from a man to a woman.
The woman's appearance was none other than Zhou Ling'er, who had died in Xiang An's hands not long ago.
This doesn't seem to be a simple disguise.
Not only does she look exactly like Zhou Ling'er.
Even the movements of his hands and feet and the expression on his face when he spoke were exactly the same as Zhou Ling'er.
Even the people closest to Zhou Ling'er would find it difficult to notice the difference, let alone recognize that the other person is a fake.
At this moment, Zhou Ling'er's face showed a look of sadness. She stretched out her hand, gently touched Lu Qi's cheek, slowly raised his head that was lying down due to pain, and then asked with a hint of resentment and a hint of pain. : "Don't you like Ling'er?"
"Why would you rather save them than save me?"
"Lu Qi, do you know? I'm so scared..."
"It hurt so much when that thing passed through my body..."
"Why don't you save me..."
This is an extremely terrible method.
Xiang An, or the evil god awakening in Xiang An's body, is trying to explore Lu Qi's true inner thoughts through this method.
He slept in the Divine Spring Sword for hundreds of years.
He was extremely weak at that time.
He wanted to survive and find a body that perfectly matched his strength.
He has always been cautious.
Therefore, the Shenquan Sword was used to set up a barrier around Ganquan Peak. From now on, no one except the disciples of Ganquan Peak can step into it.
The disciples of Ganquan Peak naturally have an instinctive respect for the ancestral sword. They will try to pull out the ancestral sword, and they will also try to find out the secret of the sleeping ancestral sword, but they will never doubt the secret of their own ancestral sword. There will be an evil spirit inhabiting it.
Hundreds of years passed like this.
Every once in a while, he would wake up, and then use his powerful spiritual consciousness to explore the entire Ganquan Peak, looking for the body he wanted.
But after so many years, it has never happened.
Until, a few years ago, Lu Qi arrived.
He felt the aura of the ancient gods in Lu Qi's body - he was a descendant of the gods.
Although after many years of reproduction, the divine bloodline in Lu Qi's body has become extremely thin, as long as there is some divine bloodline, it is equivalent to having the potential to become a divine body.
And he just has the means to match it.
So he decided to wake up completely.
This is actually a very risky move.
Once he wakes up completely, the power in his body will continue to flow away. If he cannot find a host before that, then the fate of disappearing will be waiting for him.
Therefore, he began to try to lure Lu Qi into making mistakes, but this guy named Lu Qi was extremely tough-minded and his seduction had little effect.
So, he spent a lot of divine power to plant a seed of original power in Lu Qi's body, hoping to slowly control him.
But what he didn't expect was that there was a soul hidden in Lu Qi's sword. That soul understood the strangeness in Lu Qi's body and injected its own power into the periphery of Lu Qi's spiritual palace to resist his attack. erosion.
This tug-of-war lasted for a long time, and he never succeeded.
Over the past few years, most of his strength has been consumed.
He became anxious.
At this time, Xiang An broke into his field of vision.
He had a keen insight into the darkness in this guy's heart.
During the days when he was imprisoned in Siguo Cliff, he continued to erode Xiang An.
And used Xiang An to lead Lu Qi to Siguo Cliff.
At such a close distance, he tried to take over Lu Qi's body, but the soul hidden in the opponent's sword still protected Lu Qi even if his own soul was scattered.
He became increasingly impatient.
With no other choice, he could only continue to erode Xiang An's mind. Under his temptation, Xiang An took a wrong path from which he could not turn back.
And he followed Xiang An's collapse and successfully occupied Xiang An's body.
But even so, he still retained a glimmer of hope and wanted to possess Lu Qi's body, so he never merged his origin with Xiang An.
That must be something that both parties are willing to do.
The origin is powerful and fragile, and the more mentally tough the person, the more dangerous this process will be.
Once the other party resists during the fusion process, his origin will be irreversibly damaged, causing great trouble to the ultimate goal he pursues.
So he was extremely cautious about this matter.
This is a habit he has developed after living for hundreds of years.
This is also the biggest reason why he can live for hundreds of years without being discovered.
Therefore, even if the thing he dreamed of was right in front of him, he still chose the safest method to find out Lu Qi's true thoughts, just in case.
…
Lu Qi was already extremely weak at this moment, so how could he resist such a method.
The expression on his face became confused at a speed visible to the naked eye. He looked at the girl he had sworn to protect, and a sadness surged in his heart that seemed to tear him apart...
"Ling'er."
"I'm sorry..." he murmured.
"But it's too late."
"I can't do anything now." Two lines of tears kept falling down his cheeks.
He said: "I want to avenge you."
"But I don't have that ability..."
"I can only use my life to bring back the lives of Brother Chu and the others. They are more powerful and smarter than me. If they survive, they may have a chance to avenge you one day..."
"I'm sorry Ling'er, this is the only thing I can do for you now."
…
Lu Qi's heartfelt words, which were filled with tears, did not evoke the slightest sympathy from Ling'er, who was thinking about him day and night.
On the contrary, after hearing these words, Zhou Linger's face showed a strange smile.
"So, Lu Qi, you are really affectionate and righteous."
She said this, and the facial features on her face began to distort again.
Finally, it turned into an old human face.
Chu Qingxiao has never seen anyone look like this.
The skin all over his body was like a broken water bladder, hanging on his body, wrinkled and extremely disgusting.
His eyes were cloudy, his face was covered with various spots, and the white hair on his head was as messy as weeds.
From the moment he appeared, even the air seemed to be filled with a rotten smell.
Chu Qingxiao knew that this was the true face of the evil spirit in the Shenquan Sword.
He is also the sixteenth peak master of Ganquan Peak - Yan Yongnian!
