Chapter 16: Spiritual Power Lost
For a long time, a touch of grief appeared in Gu Chuanfeng's eyes.
"Hey, what's that in the river?" exclaimed a guard.
With a slump in his body, Gu Chuanfeng slowly raised his head and looked in the direction of his fingertips.
I saw that an extremely deep whirlpool was formed in the center of the originally calm river, which changed from small to large, startling the ripples of the river in the distance.
Rumble!
There was a loud bang, the water splashed, the waves surged, and the water column rose into the sky. A figure swept out of it, and several jumped into it, heading towards the cliff.
One of the sharp-eyed guards was the first to see the comer, and greeted everyone happily.
"It's Miss Lou and the young master! It's the girl and the young master!"
Hearing this, Gu Chuanfeng came back to his senses, and he couldn't even care about the dust on his body, and the other guards hurriedly rushed over, looking relieved.
"Really?"
"Is it the young master and the girl Lou?"
As soon as the words fell, a figure fell.
Everyone was overjoyed and hurriedly stepped forward, but the scene they saw in front of them made their smiles instantly freeze on their faces.
Not far from the clearing.
A woman in a bloody suit sat on the ground with a bloodstained man in her arms. His face was pale, the corners of his lips were bloody, his right hand was drooping, and the tips of his index finger were dripping with blood, staining the ground beside him a dark red.
That piece of red, enchanting and gorgeous, is shocking!
Gu Chuanfeng's eyes trembled, and he walked forward tremblingly, calling cautiously.
"...... girl?"
Hearing Gu Chuanfeng's call, Lou Xinyue moved her fingers slightly, but she didn't even have the strength to speak.
Forcefully raised his head, but before he could see the scene in front of him, he felt that the world was spinning, and the answer that was about to overflow the corners of his lips also came to an abrupt end with the disappearance of consciousness.
In a trance, Gu Chuanfeng's anxious call, staggered figures, and panicked footsteps became more and more confused.
Lou Xinyue completely fainted.
......
The border with the country to the east -
Yilai Innββ
A simplely furnished, clean and tidy room.
The black wooden windows were open, the breeze was blowing, the air was filled with a faint scent of sandalwood, and the hollow carved windows were shining with specks of fine sunlight on a wooden bed opposite, and the white curtains hung down layer by layer, swaying gently in the wind, and the shadow in the curtain was about a figure lying down.
A very light footstep sounded from outside, pushed the door in, and then closed the door. Without pause, he walked to the side of the bed and stopped.
Reach out and lift the layers of curtains.
I saw a woman in white wearing a veil lying quietly on the bed. Her eyes were slightly closed, her breathing was shallow, and although most of her face was covered, Katsuyuki's skin and delicate eyebrows also revealed the extraordinary appearance of the woman.
His gaze fell on the woman's white belt, and the visitor stretched out his hand to her.
As soon as he touched his belt, a Qianqianyu hand grabbed the wrist of the visitor and intercepted his movements.
The cold voice is as cold as winter.
"Who are you?"
The visitor was startled and looked up. At some point, the woman who was still asleep had woken up.
His eyes were cold, with murderous intent.
This person is Lou Xinyue.
With a tightening of his wrist, the person hurriedly explained.
"When the girl was in a coma for a long time, the slave Mo'er was ordered by the son to take care of the girl's daily life. Now change the girl's clothes. β
After a pause, he added.
"My son-in-law's surname is Mu. β
Lou Xinyue's eyebrows were slightly raised.
Surname Mu?
Don't think about it, the son surnamed Mu is afraid that only Mu Qingye will be there.
After roughly scanning the entire room, his eyes fell on the clothes that had been changed on his body and a set of brand new white blouses that were neatly stacked next to the bed, and he instantly sobered up.
Squinting her eyes and retracting her gaze, Lou Xinyue carefully looked at the woman in front of her.
A simple cyan long skirt, holding a simple maidservant bun and inserting a jet-black flying flower hairpin.
Even though her wrist was clenched by her, her beautiful face remained unchanged.
The costume is the costume of the maid of the eastern bordering country. But it's really not an ordinary maid.
Why?
Although the woman in front of her looked plainly dressed, she didn't know that her hairpin was made of a rare ink stone in the east, at least nearly fifty low-grade spars, and the clothes on her body cost hundreds of low-grade spars.
Second, the woman's gait is steady, her breath is calm, she speaks and does things without panic, she is neither humble nor arrogant, and she must have been trained.
The combination of the two is indeed the handiwork of the Mu family.
The suspicion disappeared, and Lou Xinyue believed the words of the woman in front of her almost instantly.
Letting go of the wrist holding Mo'er and leaning on the pillow, Lou Xinyue rubbed her tingling temples and asked.
"Where is this?"
Mo'er withdrew her hand, took a few steps back, and replied respectfully.
"Back to the girl, this is the Yilai Inn on the border of the country in the east, and the entire inn has been taken over by the son. β
Bordering the East?
Lou Xinyue was a little surprised.
"How many days have I been in a coma?"
"Back to the girl, not counting today, it's been three days. β
Three days.
It turned out that she had been in a coma for so long. I don't know what happened to the Lou family.
"What about Uncle Gu and Mu Gongzi?"
"Steward Gu and Gongzi have not come back yet, as for where they went, the slave and maid don't know. β
Nodding slightly, Lou Xinyue's eyes were half-blind, revealing a trace of lacklustre.
"Thank you for taking care of me these days, now that I'm awake, go down and rest. β
"Yes. β
Hearing this, Mo'er didn't say much, leaned over, retreated, and gently closed the door.
The moment Mo'er's skirt disappeared. Lou Xinyue couldn't hold on any longer, and fell on the bed with a bang, a touch of bright red overflowing from the corners of her lips.
Shaking his hands and wiping the corners of his lips, Lou Xinyue's eyes darkened.
In that Tan Cave, she forcibly used the forbidden technique of the divine technique.
Blood Sacrifice.
A forbidden technique that enhances one's own spell for a short period of time at the cost of burning one's own spiritual power.
It can be described as 800 wounds to the enemy and 1,000 self-losses.
Originally, her spiritual power could last until she left the Tan Cave, but she never thought that the backlash of the forbidden art was too powerful, causing her to lose her spiritual power in mid-air, fortunately, she exerted the little remaining Xuan power in time, otherwise she would almost be buried deep in the river with the Tan Cave.
Raising her finger, Lou Xinyue smiled bitterly.
She clearly felt that there was no spiritual power in her body, and her sight, hearing, and acuity were greatly reduced compared to before.
In the past, even when she was sleeping, she could feel any breath in dozens of meters around her. And just now, she didn't know until the servant girl touched her.
Although she knew the consequences of the forbidden arts, because in her previous life, her techniques had already reached the extreme, and she had few opponents in the realm of cultivation. In addition, she has a cold temperament and rarely makes a move. He has never had the opportunity to use the forbidden technique.
And this time, she used. The consequence is countless internal injuries and loss of spiritual power.
Full recovery can take as little as a few months or as many as a few years.
Lou Xinyue sighed lightly.
It seems that she may not be able to use magic for a long time.
