In an instant, two streams of fire burst out with tremendous power. Xiao Mei felt a scorching heat, and the firelight immediately shattered the light wall. Xiao Mei's eyes lost all light and darkness for a moment. She could only feel the temperature, the intense temperature.
The fire bloomed, the flames rose, and the fireworks grew and changed in her palms, turning into huge vines rising from the ground. Bundles of vines coiled and condensed, finally taking shape and turning into a sword that could calm Xuanhuang.
Countless sounds came from the cracks in the light wall, laughter, sorrow, singing, laughter, and sorrow. The cracks are getting bigger and bigger, those voices are pouring into her mind, the memories are reviving, and "that" voice is laughing.
"You did a good job, poor little guy. You are finally no longer deceived." The voice echoed in her mind, and the sea of consciousness was no longer chaotic - Xiao Fu merged with the chaos.
"Now, swing out the sword in your hand."
Xiao Mei closed his eyes. The sword in her hand was hot, wrapped in fire, and the power from the ancient times was condensed in her hand, bit by bit, like the whisper of history itself. The shuddering voice appeared again, not in her ears, but in her heart.
"Swing the sword in your hand."
With a powerful slash, countless past memories flooded into her mind, shaking her heart over and over again. Those already familiar movements flowed through her body again, one move after another, one step after another. The internal energy that had been stagnant for a long time began to flow again, just like spring water breaking through the stagnation of the ice and pouring into the dry waterway. Flames entangled and rolled, swirling out of her body. Xiao Mei clenched the hilt of the sword and allowed the flames to spread outward and break through the barrier in front of him.
Something was calling, something was breaking, but Xiao Mei couldn't stop for it. She raised her sword and moved forward, walking through the darkness in the sea of consciousness, and finally saw the shadow in the darkness clearly for the first time.
It was a tree, a huge neem tree. The tree crown is rich, the branches are dense, and countless branches stretch out. A little girl with red clothes and black hair is sitting on the branch of the tree, swinging her legs and singing freely.
Her singing voice was so vague that Xiao Mei couldn't hear a single word clearly. But she could see that as the girl sang, red and pink flowers gradually bloomed on the neem tree. The flower branches trembled slightly, the petals fell, and the girl waved her hands widely. The edges of the petals suddenly burned and turned into balls of golden-red flames.
Xiao Mei stretched out his hand to touch the rain of flames and sparks falling from the sky. His fingertips burned, and it was so familiar that it made people shudder. The inner energy turned into circles and lines and melted into her fingertips. She heard the girl stop singing, quickly jumped down from the tree, turned her head to look at her, and said with a smile:
"Why are you so stupid?"
After Xu Zhuchen separated the two people, he saw that Xiao Mei could not recover for a long time, so he lifted her up and placed her on an arm chair.
She turned to look at Huahua Cheng, who had put away his infatuation when facing Xiao Mei, which made her feel relieved. Under Xu Zhuchen's gaze, he stood up without saying a word, first invited Xu Zhuchen to take a seat, and then walked to sit opposite Xu Zhuchen.
As he sat down, he saw Xu Zhuchen hugging his fist: "Senior, Xu Zhuchen is here and has no hostility towards you. He just has a few questions to ask. Senior, please feel free to answer them."
"Miss Xu, please allow me to see Miss Xiao again. Although things are no longer what they used to be, this kindness should be tied to my heart." He lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "What do you think? You asked, and the villain answered everything he knew. But I also want to give you a piece of advice."
He looked at the lines on the wooden table, the window was wide open, and the wooden table was covered with a layer of silver gauze in the moonlight: "Miss Xu, you are the best among thousands of people. Sometimes, you don't have to be clear about everything. "
Xu Zhuchen laid Zhanlu flat on the table, stared at Qianhuacheng, and said: "I won't ask about her and you. You should answer truthfully what I want to ask. Senior Hua, what are the activities around Zhiyang? , are you targeting the Shanyin Escort Agency, or do you want to reshuffle the escort agencies in the northwest?"
Qian Qian didn't speak for a long time. After a long time, he slowly spoke: "Miss, this action is aimed at you."
Xu Zhuchen frowned and instinctively didn't believe it. Wang He didn't have Li Fenglong's courage. He just wanted to be a local snake and didn't dare to challenge the Xu family. If it were anyone else, she, Xu Zhuchen, had already stated that she had no intention of inheriting the escort agency. When it came to martial arts, she had no original skills. In terms of status in the world, she could not compare to another senior Tang, the "best swordsman in the world". Targeting her is equivalent to no profit.
She asked: "The world rankings have just been released. It would be too early to compete for the top spot in the world now. Can senior please be more clear?"
Before he could spend the money, he raised his eyes and said, "Miss Xu, no one wants to take anything away from you. What he wants to deal with is you. That's all the villain said."
From what he said, his employer was a person, and he had no intention of revealing more. For a moment, the atmosphere was a little cold, and a thin layer of ice had formed on Xu Zhuchen's hands. She suppressed the doubts in her heart, nodded and accepted Qianqian Cheng's answer, and asked again: "After the situation in Zhiyang changed, most of the surrounding towns were affected. The information was already well-informed, and the seniors already knew that I had arrived in Yuangong, but they didn't Without the transfer, is there anything left in Yuan Palace that needs to be solved by senior?"
Qian Qiancheng didn't reply, but just untied his left arm, revealing a thick bandage soaked in blood under his sleeve. He said calmly: "It was originally a simple mission, but Miss Luo's Cloud Collapse Palm was so powerful that she suffered more injuries during the operation. She had to rest here and did not dare to travel long distances."
When Xu Zhuchen saw the wound, it was shocking. Qian Qiancheng's left arm was almost dented above the elbow. It was the trauma caused by receiving the Cloud Cloud Palm at a very close distance. It was lucky that no bones were injured. No wonder there were so many things left in Jixiang Hotel that were not taken away.
"Is the mission target you mentioned a stone dealer here named Jin Liang?"
Qian Qiancheng held the cuff strap in his hand and shook his head: "No."
Xu Zhuchen was filled with doubts. She had communicated with Xu Rong that Jin Liang's death caused a small commotion in Yuandi because the way he died was too tragic - Jin Liang's entire residence was burned down, all the houses collapsed, and dozens of people in the house, young and old, were killed. All four had their tongues, limbs and hands cut off first, and then were burned. They were unable to call for help or escape, so they were burned alive and choked to death. The fire was also very fierce. When the neighbors found out, the beams and pillars had already been burned, and no one dared to enter the fire scene to save people. The Jin Liang family was tortured to death in this hell on earth.
In Yuan Palace, there are many people with high martial arts skills, but such a high-profile, so bad, and so cruel, non-professional killers cannot do it. According to Xu Rong's information, there are only a few killers still in Yuangong who can do this. If it wasn't the person who paid for it, who would want the life of a stone dealer?
The involvement between Jin Liang and Xiao Mei should have ended when Xiao Mei disappeared in the fire two years ago. Even if Wang He had some scruples about this, he should have disposed of Jin Liang when he found that Xiao Fu's muscles and veins were all gone and he was unable to practice martial arts and passed it on to Li Fenglong. If this person really has nothing to do with Wang He, it makes no sense to suddenly attack Jin Liang.
