There was a hint of inquiry and doubt in Xiuhe's tone, and when I listened to his words, a bold, unrealistic, but impossible to ignore suddenly flashed through my mind. I panicked and overwhelmed by the thought, so I clenched my fists tightly and tried to control my trembling that I couldn't stop because I was too excited, and then I looked at Xiuhe and replied cautiously:

"Tatsubei said that part of the man's spell was related to stones, so they thought that the stone had disguised himself and did this, but ......"

"But you don't think so, right, with your character and knowledge of stones, I think you should think that the purpose of those people should actually be to resurrect stones. ”

Xiuhe did not shy away from telling out what I was thinking in my heart, without any concealment at all, and there was no fluctuation in his tone. The way he expressed it so bluntly made me feel a kind of horror, as if I was just a little white rabbit waiting to be tested in front of him, and there were no secrets to speak of. I felt the oppression of a disparity in status, which prompted me to bite my lip and force myself not to think along these lines anymore. However, even if I wanted to escape now, I knew very well that I had already thought of the answer I would get next.

It's just that I've never dared to admit it.

Seeing me standing there with red eyes and not saying a word, Xiuhe knew that what he had just said had had a great impact on me. He frowned, walked up to me, raised his hand and stroked the corner of my eye, then lifted my chin and said to me:

"As I said, some things are far from being as simple as you see, and what you think is always what you think. So far, compared to Sinan and Chenbei's inferences, I am more inclined to your answer. But you also have to know that I have experienced much more than the two of them, and I like you, so I want you not to get involved in this anymore, naturally there are enough reasons, and it is also for your own good. ”

Xiu's tone changed from the previous stern or cold, as gentle as the newly stretched petals that were still stained with dew in the early morning. However, at this moment I had no intention of appreciating his tenderness, and I knocked off his hand that rested on my chin, and shouted at him:

"If you're really doing it for my good, help me activate the blood jade. ”

"As I said, there are too many involved in this matter, and you can't handle a small demon who can't learn any magic. And theoretically speaking, matters related to Monkey King should have been handled by the Heavenly Realm. So, you don't have to worry about this, I, as the lord of the underworld, will naturally solve it. So from today onwards, you will be honest and not allowed to go anywhere, unless I come to you......"

Xiuhe's voice was still impeccably gentle, but his gaze at me was as cold as the cold light reflected by a sharp blade, and even the smile carried a chilling chill. Although he was only halfway there, the meaning he wanted to convey had already been transmitted to my mind by his hand that was holding my chin. I felt a fear again, and for the first time, this fear stemmed from the origin of his identity.

Ever since I met Xiuhe, he has always faced me with a proud and frivolous attitude, which gave me a very peaceful illusion. This delusion made me ignore his identity, yes, I forgot, he is the king of Hades, he is the lord of a realm, such a status, relying on his good-looking skin and lips and tongue that can say love words more than anyone else can't be exchanged at all. War and status only gave him a chance to show his decisiveness, not the crucible that shaped him. There is a kind of ruthlessness and determination in his bones, which is his innate nature, and because of this, he can survive the battle of the Three Realms, and then, become the master of the underworld.

I've never been willing to face up to his identity, but now I finally have to understand it.

There was a faint pain in my jaw that was pinched by Xiuhe, and I snorted, and then reluctantly spoke, and asked in as calm a tone as possible:

"Xiuhe, do you have any friends?"

I could feel a visibly twitch in Xiuhe's hand when he heard my words. And my heart hurt, and tears almost welled up in my eyes.

I know that I shouldn't take advantage of the relationship between Xiuhe and Jade Soul Gui, using this relationship as bait is a harm to me and to Xiuhe. I'm ashamed that I've become so mean, but I can't cry now, and I can't stop.

Because there is no other way for me to choose.

Although there is no substantial evidence that those people were using me to wake up the stone, judging by the actions of these people, my guess is at least eighty percent likely. I don't know what their purpose is, but my instincts tell me that they must not be allowed to find the stone first.

He finally escaped, even if he was once brilliant and had the power to destroy the world, and wanted to do something, now I only hope that he can live in peace and well!

Xu guessed my intentions, and Xiuhe finally slowly let go of me. He turned his head sideways to look at Xiuhe, sighed, and then replied to me:

"I have lived for tens of thousands of years, and in these tens of thousands of years, I have become the master of the underworld step by step from an obscure god, and ordinary people must not be able to imagine what I have experienced. I don't care how many human corpses I used to pave my path to success, because at that time, everyone was determined to die and sacrificed their lives for the so-called unification. In fact, now that I think about it, those of them all have strong strength, as long as they are willing to work hard, any of them can become the lord of the heavenly realm. It's a pity that they don't have the guts and the determination to be able to bear failure, so Jing Rong has a chance to stand out among those people, and I, his friend who grew up with him, also have a chance to become the current Lord of the Underworld. You ask me if I have any friends, I have, before I came to this underworld, Jing Rong was my best friend, not only him, but all those who fought side by side with me were my friends! But now, all of them have left me. Forget it, you will always be superior when you are clever, and I will never be able to win against you. You've managed to catch my weakness this time, but it's been so late that I'm afraid it's too late to stop it. Since you want the jade soul to return, just wait for Mo Bai to wake up. ”
