Chapter 499: Failed Tribulation?
Hong Ningxiang grabbed Xu Youfang and landed in front of the gate of the Spring Palace, crushed the password charm, broke the heavy prohibition in front of him, and went straight to the spring pool where Liu Qingming was resurrected.
However, stepping into the palace, Hong Ningxiang felt that something was wrong.
Along the way, her divine sense wandered around the entire Spring Palace, except for a few maids and demon soldiers, she didn't even detect the breath of Liuli and Liu Qingli.
Not only that, but the spring pool was also like a pool of stagnant water, and her divine sense could not capture Liu Qingming's breath.
She's only been away for one night, what's going on here?
"Ruri, Ruri!" Hong Ningxiang called out with her heart, although she tried her best to maintain her composure, she still couldn't suppress the inexplicable uneasiness in her heart.
Xu Youfang's heart was traumatized because of the regression of cultivation, and he was unable to check the situation around the Spring Palace, but when he saw Hong Ningxiang's expression was different, he suddenly felt a little nervous. Remembering that day she stole the Soul Binding Bell, and then practiced in retreat for more than ten days, she never saw him again, and she didn't know if there were any sequelae of the resurrection technique he used.
Just as the two were wandering, a figure flashed out of a rockery in front of them.
Hong Ningxiang saw that it was Chongliuli, and greeted him, seeing that his face was pale and his eyes were red, he hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, Liuli?" ”
"Mother-" Chongliuli wanted to rush over and cry bitterly in his arms, but he knew that he was her child, he was her pillar, and he had to remain calm in the face of big things. If even he can't hold on, who will accompany his mother and comfort him.
"Good guy, why are you crying?!" Hong Ningxiang saw the tears that were about to fall in his eyes, and when she saw him like this, she felt heartache and panic.
"Mother, I'm fine, you-you come with me first."
Chongliuli was very contradictory on the way here, and he didn't know how to tell his mother the bad news, and now he could drag it out for a while, he raised his head, forced himself to swallow back the tears in his eyes, and grabbed his mother's hand and walked into the tunnel under the rockery. After taking a few steps, he noticed that his mother was still holding on to someone, and he couldn't help but stop.
Chong Liuli glanced at Xu Youfang carefully, and found that this woman's breath was unstable, and her cultivation had regressed to the demon body stage, but she was afraid that her current skills were not as good as his, so she frowned and said, "Mother, did you catch her?" ”
Hong Ningxiang nodded, "Liuli, I fought with this woman last night, and I hit her demon baby hard, and now she can't run away." However, she was pregnant, and I couldn't touch her anymore. ”
She ...... Pregnant?" Chongliuli's expression changed.
Although he has never had anything to do with men and women, he also knows what it means for a woman to be pregnant.
But the key is that Xu Youfang followed them to the Spring Palace that day, and then she took advantage of her father's coma to steal the soul bell and go to retreat and practice.
When did she conceive the baby? Who is the child's father? He didn't dare to think deeply.
"Don't ask so much, take me to see your father." Hong Ningxiang was unwilling to destroy Liu Qingming's image in Liuli's heart before finding out the truth.
She didn't want to say too much, maybe it was because she didn't want to believe the memories in Xu Youfang's mind, and subconsciously she still had a trace of luck, she didn't believe that Liu Qingming would deceive her.
Passing through the tunnel, Chongliuli broke through several prohibitions and led the two into a secret room.
The temperature suddenly became cold, and there was a dazzling white in front of him, and after a while, Hong Ningxiang's eyes adapted to the light of the secret room, and only then did he see that the secret room was full of snow-white ice bricks, and it was actually a large ice room.
There are two ice walls in the center of the ice room, and between the ice walls is an ice couch.
There was a man lying on the couch, motionless, as if dead.
He's dead?
Hong Ningxiang was frightened by the thoughts that flashed in his mind, but after seeing the person on the couch clearly, he stiffened, and subconsciously let go of Xu Youfang.
The man on the couch was Liu Qingming's own appearance, he changed into a red robe, and the robe was embroidered with large Lingxiao flowers, which were so gorgeous that they were eye-catching.
His long black hair hung down at his side without any disorder, because of the low temperature in the ice room, his whole body was covered with thick frost, and even the face of the demonic beings lost its lustre, the handsome oblique eyebrows froze, the breathtaking phoenix eyes were slightly closed, and the lips as thin as willow leaves lost their blood, and they looked as if they had fallen into a deep sleep, but they were terrifyingly quiet.
Xu Youfang was also shocked when she saw Liu Qingming's appearance. She took a few steps back, clinging to the wall, and nearly fell.
Looking up again, I saw Hong Ningxiang rushing to the ice couch and trying to touch Liu Qingming, but saw a figure flash out from behind an ice wall next to him, raised his hand and grabbed Hong Ningxiang's arm, "Ah Xiang, don't move him!" ”
Hong Ningxiang turned around and saw that it was Liu Qingli, and shook off her hand, "Qingli, what are you stopping me for?" ”
Liu Qingli had been thinking about how to confess what happened last night, but when she saw her eyes, she swallowed back her words with a weak heart.
Chongliuli also walked over, and Hong Ningxiang saw that his eyes were the same as Liu Qingli's, full of sadness, and her heart sank little by little.
The two of them didn't dare to say anything, for fear that if they said the wrong word, the woman in front of them would go crazy.
The more they didn't say it, the more uneasy Hong Ningxiang became, and that uneasiness gradually magnified, so big that it was suffocating, she vaguely understood something, but subconsciously she couldn't believe her guess.
Holding on to the ice couch to stabilize her body, she no longer ignored the obstruction of the two, she rushed to the ice couch. grabbed Liu Qingming's hand, but the tentacles were cold.
Her hands trembled violently, groped, and put them under his nose, testing his breath, without a trace of warmth.
Still not believing it, she put her head on his chest and listened to his heartbeat! Strange, why is there no heartbeat?
She stroked his wrist again, searching for a pulse, but his pulse was gone.
Wasn't he okay when she left yesterday morning?
He had just been resurrected, and he obviously needed to rest, but he woke up for half an hour to talk to her, and he hugged her and kissed her fiercely!
He also promised her that when she finished settling accounts with Xu Youfang, she would return to him safely.
Now that she's back, how did he die?
No way! How could he die if he was so powerful?!
He must have played tricks on her again as before, scaring her and bullying her in this way!
"Hey! Liu Qingming, don't play dead! Wake up, wake me up! Wake up, bastard! I still have a lot to ask you, do you think I'll let you go if you pretend to be dead? Bastard! ”
Hong Ningxiang's voice sounded so pale and weak, Xu Youfang looked at this scene in a daze, she also seemed to be drained of strength, covering her stomach tightly, trying her best to support her body.
Chong Liuli wiped the corners of her eyes, stretched out her hand and put it on Hong Ningxiang's shoulder, and said softly, "Mother-don't be like this!" ”
Hong Ningxiang pushed him away with his backhand, glanced at him, then at Liu Qingli, and asked word by word: "Before I left, didn't I tell you to take good care of him and protect the Fa for him, how did you take care of him?" Ah Ming - What's wrong with him? ”
After a period of dead silence, Chong Liuli glanced at his aunt, knowing that she didn't know how to speak, he knew that he couldn't hide, and choked up: "Mother." After you left yesterday, Daddy experienced seventy-seven forty-nine thunder tribulations at night, and he failed to cross the tribulation. ”
