Chapter Eighty-Six: See the Old Man Again
"Click...... Click......
With the sound of rustling, an ominous fog quietly shrouded the "Imperial City" at night, and I saw those crouched one-eyed monsters emerging from all corners of the surrounding area like ghosts, approaching gluttony and frog strides step by step.
"Gluttony...... Glutton, we've been discovered......!
As soon as he saw that so many ambushed Gu eagles suddenly appeared beside him, Frog Stant was so frightened that he sat on the ground, and with a "poof" he took off the appearance of "horse belly" and changed back to the original form of a toad.
"Don't look at who's here. ”
Unlike the panicked frog strider, the "young woman" next to it smiled calmly, ignoring the gloomy one-eyed monsters around her, but still raised her head and looked at the robed man on the dome, and opened her mouth leisurely:
"I said Si You, people finally came to the Netherworld, and you used these things to entertain me?
"Oh, how do you want me to 'entertain' you?" said the man in the dome as he looked at the mocking "young woman" below.
"Don't stand there coldly~ You should also come down and do your 'landlord's friendship', right?" The young woman smiled and stretched out her hand, pretending to hook her fingers at the man. "Or ...... Are you trying to get me up?"
"Then it depends on whether you have the ability to do it......"
Si You said, a cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and in an instant, several sharp ice blades instantly formed in mid-air, stabbing straight towards the gluttony and the frog!
"Hehe, what are you doing in such a hurry? Aren't I here~"
Another joking voice suddenly sounded, and this time the source of the sound seemed to be much closer, but Si You maintained a calm face, and without saying much, he stretched out his hand to the right and waved, and the flying ice blade suddenly flew towards the right front of the dome like a torrential rain, with the roar of the explosion and the strange sound of tearing the fabric, the phantom of a charming young woman quietly appeared on the roof not far away, and he was still carrying a toad ghost who was about to be stunned, and he was not hurt at all.
"Oh, I haven't seen you in so long, you're getting more and more rude, Si You. ”
The "young woman" smiled at the man, and the clothes torn by the ice blade rippled in the wind, revealing the "spring light" that leaked between her skirts, but the "young woman" herself seemed to be completely unimpressed, but instead looked at the man's expression with a smile, as if appreciating the reaction of the other side.
"Hmph, how long are you going to disgust me with that look?"
Si You's unchanged indifferent expression seemed to have finally changed slightly. I saw a frown between his brows, and in an instant, a fierce momentum erupted from his body! In the blink of an eye, the roof where the "young woman" was located was shattered, but this time, the "young woman" didn't seem to have time to dodge, and suddenly fell into the broken masonry; at the same time, the Gu eagles who were watching around also roared as if they had received an order, and rushed up in the direction of the broken roof, engulfing the two figures in an instant.
"Kalala......
The flying dust and the falling rubble shrouded the group of Gu Eagles that were frantically besieging, and Si You looked down with cold eyes, and the emotions in his dark blue pupils were unclear. After a while, a black shadow suddenly flew out of the group of Gu Eagles and smashed straight towards Si You's face! Si You's body didn't move, but his eyes widened slightly, and in an instant, the black shadow was torn to pieces by Si You's coercion, and at this time, he realized that the black shadow was actually a broken Gu Eagle body.
However, a brief interlude is the beginning of a slaughter.
One, two, more...... With the terrible screams of the Gu Eagles, the remains of the Gu Eagles were thrown out of the rubble ruins, and by the time the dust cleared, almost half of the Gu Eagles had been reduced to corpses, while the rest stepped back with a low roar, looking up at the red-haired man in the middle of the ruins with his true face in fear.
"Tsk, Si You, Si You, I'm just here to find someone, why are you so nervous. Gluttony chuckled, got up from the ruins, tossed aside the frightened frog streak, took a piece of cloth from his pocket, and began to wipe the blood from his hands.
"I don't care what you're here for, I said back then, don't let me see your face again!" Si You's words concealed murderous intentions.
"I said what you are talking about? The vengeance of more than a hundred years ago is now. Tao Tao shook his head, looking helpless. "I was just joking with you back then, and I didn't mean to deceive ......."
"Shut up!"
Si You's seemingly calm face finally couldn't hold back, and the hatred that burst out of his eyes became more and more undisguised, as if he recalled some unbearable past, and even the coercion around him instantly increased sharply. He raised his hands suddenly, and the cold cold air caused the surrounding fog to accumulate and shatter in an instant, and finally freeze into countless sharp ice needles, seeing that another storm attack was about to start, but at this moment, a blood-red glimmer suddenly flashed from Si You's chest, and Si You's movements also froze slightly at that moment.
"Bang ——!"
The rainstorm of ice needles finally fell, but this kind of power and speed was not enough to threaten in the eyes of gluttony, only to see him pick up the frog again, and easily jumped in the opposite direction of the ice needle falling, dodging Si You's attack cleanly.
"Yo, what's wrong with you? ”
Tao Tao saw Si You's abnormality at a glance, and how could he miss such a rare flaw. I saw that he was teasing on the side of his mouth, and his feet did not stop at the same time, and he broke through the encirclement of the Gu Eagles as he spoke, and jumped towards the corner where there was no one in front of him, but he had just taken a few steps, but the gluttonous face suddenly retracted for a moment.
Gluttony lowered his head, glanced at the frost that spread up under his feet and gradually imprisoned his legs, and then looked at the man on the dome again, who was holding his chest and looking down at him with cold eyes, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked.
"Oh, I can't see it, you've always been straightforward, and you've even started to play the 'trap'. ”
"Do you think I'll watch you run away again like I did back then?" Si You put down the hand that was pressed on his chest, forcibly pressed down a certain strangeness that flashed in his eyes, and then straightened up, and stretched out his right hand again to the red-haired man below.
"Since you're leaving, let me personally send you back to the realm, but ...... It's in the form of being 'born again' after you die. ”
Si You said coldly, and the ice cubes in the air around him also quickly condensed at the same moment.
"Die. ”
"Rumble——!
The ice storm that spread in an instant was deafening, and it completely swallowed the crimson phantom.
--------------------------------
"Whoa......
The sudden shock startled Jiang Yao and Lu Xingyue, and the dust that was shaken fell from the top of the road, and the two of them were suddenly disgraced.
"What's going on??" Jiang Yao looked nervous, but as soon as he said the words, he realized that he seemed to have said something stupid—where did the earthquake come from in the netherworld?
But fortunately, Lu Xingyue was not in the mood to taunt Jiang Yao at this time, at this time he was vigilantly looking around, and after confirming that the two of them had not triggered any mechanism, he calmed down and took a closer look at the 'Star Swirl Disk' in his hand.
"Fortunately, the pointing is still clear and there is no interference. Lu Xingyue said, and her nervousness seemed to ease a lot. He looked up and followed the hands of the Star Swirl disk, his eyes lit up.
I saw that in front of this long road, there seemed to be two forks on the left and right, among which the left fork faintly revealed the faint light of the candle flame, and a figure that seemed to be there was reflected on the stone wall, swaying with the light of the candle flame.
"This, this is ......!?" Lu Xingyue looked directly at the figure on the stone wall, and the expression on his face suddenly disappeared. Immediately after, he suddenly rushed in the direction of the figure as if he was enchanted, and even turned a deaf ear to Jiang Yao's anxious inquiries behind him.
"You...... Sure enough, here...... I...... I've been looking for you for a long time......" Lu Xingyue's gold and silver eyes reflected the dark shadow in the depths, and his soulless face didn't know whether it was excitement or sadness, and his steps were getting faster and faster.
“…… Xingyue ...... Lu Xingyue!!"
"Hmm......!" A burst of pain from his shoulder made Lu Xingyue suddenly wake up from his trance, only to see Jiang Yao, who was full of anxiety, was holding his shoulder tightly at this time, and the position one step away from Lu Xingyue was a one-person-wide hole, which was bottomless, and it seemed to be a trap left by a triggered mechanism.
"Ah......" Lu Xingyue, who came back to her senses, hurriedly stepped back, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
"What's wrong with you?" suddenly ...... like this" Seeing Lu Xingyue's abnormal appearance, Jiang Yao was surprised.
"I see that there is a light ...... ahead" Lu Xingyue turned her head and pulled Jiang Yao to point forward. "There's light there, and there's ...... People ......"
"People?" Jiang Yao was stunned, looked up in the direction that Lu Xingyue was pointing, but only saw the deep and dark corridor, let alone people, and didn't even see the slightest shadow of light.
"You speak of light...... Where?" Jiang Yao wondered. "And...... I didn't sense anyone when I put out the spell to explore the way ahead, huh?"
"Ah, it's impossible, there's obviously a ...... ahead" Halfway through the words, Lu Xingyue was suddenly stunned, and when he turned his head, he found that the fork in the road was gone, and the strange light and figure disappeared without a trace, and in front of him, there was only a dim and endless narrow road.
"It's ...... What's going on?" Lu Xingyue rubbed her eyes, opened her eyes and looked forward, but she didn't find the slightest trace of light and shadow and fork in the road.
“…… Maybe you're too tired. Jiang Yao sighed. "Why don't we take a break?"
As soon as the words fell, a slight chuckle suddenly floated in front of the dark corridor, ethereal, soft, and straight into people's hearts, like a girl's dream.
[Huh...... Hehe......]
This time, it was not only Lu Xingyue, but even Jiang Yao raised his head suddenly.
"You too...... Hear?" Lu Xingyue looked at Jiang Yao with some uncertainty.
"I hear you. ”
Jiang Yao looked ahead, his brows furrowed slightly.
"It's really ...... It's not just the two of us!"
