76. Critical Blow
"How do you know?" Twilight looked at Ling Yi in disbelief.
Ling Yi pushed away the hidden link that was protecting him and walked in front of Qingxun and Twilight, "What do you know? Do you know that the mermaid clan's spirit bead is at the tail of the fish?"
"Hahahaha..."Ling Yi laughed, "The mermaid clan is indeed the most magical race in Zeguo, and other races can only obtain spirit beads after acquired cultivation, and they are all in the most vulnerable heart. But the merfolk not only have their own spirit beads since birth, but the spirit beads are also hidden in the tail of the fish protected by hard scales. ”
Twilight stood up from the ground, "This is the merfolk clan's secret of self-preservation, how do you know?"
"Do you think it's the only one who knows? Ask Qingxun next to you, doesn't he already know!"
Hearing Ling Yi's words, Qing Xun's body holding the sword shook, avoiding the questioning eyes that Twilight looked at. "Ling Yi, don't talk nonsense, let Li'an go!"
Ling Yi waved his hand, blood spurted out of Qingxun's throat, and he knelt on the ground, he used his sword to support himself from falling.
"Let Li'an go, and then you can take her spirit beads?"
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
Li An in the iron cage, his eyes fell on Qingxun, "Qingxun, what do his words mean?"
Qingxun looked at Li'an, who was dying in the water, and before he could speak, tears fell silently.
Ling Yi smiled playfully, as if he thought it was funny.
"Li'an, I was very angry when I knew that Mu'er was relegated to the mortal realm for you, but I was even more angry when I knew that he was still wishful thinking. The prince of my Dragon Palace will fall in love with you as a down-and-out mermaid princess, and what's even more ridiculous is that in your heart, he also lost to a scheming water snake. ”
"Ling Yi, what the hell do you want to say!" Li An gritted his teeth and looked at Ling Yi.
Ling Yi slowly walked in front of Qing Xun, "Have you sneaked into the Dragon Palace, right?" If I guessed correctly, the ancient book in my dormitory was stolen by you. The book contains secrets about the Merfolk Orbs and how to obtain them for your own use. ”
"How is that possible?" Twilight was shocked.
"How is it impossible? Obtaining the spirit bead of the mermaid clan is equivalent to obtaining a shortcut to cultivation, someone has already made this idea, and succeeded, and recorded this. The book has been sealed in the forbidden room of the Celestial Realm. ”
"Book?" Li An suddenly remembered in her mind, Lingshan, Qingxun's bedroom, the ancient book with yellowed footers in the messy collection, she opened the title page, it seemed to be painted with a mermaid pattern, and it was snatched by Qingxun before she could see it clearly, and she had never seen it since.
Li An looked at Qingxun, "That's the book, right?"
"Li'an, that book, has been destroyed by me. Qingxun looked at Li'an's eyes seriously.
Ling Yi once again seized the right to speak, "Ruined? What can it prove, you already knew what this king was going to do, and you already knew what happened to Li'an after resolving the resentful spirit, but you never reminded her, didn't you? Not only that, but you also helped her successfully resolve the resentful spirit again and again, which is why I know that you stole the ancient book, and you will keep you until now." Qingxun, you have been reluctant to return to Zeguo, aren't you afraid that your identity will be exposed?"
"No, no, the reason why Xun'er will help An'er is because he has An'er's scales on his body, and when An'er is in danger, he can sense that Qingyuan-jun and I have made an agreement that the Water Snake Clan will protect An'er. Twilight stepped forward and explained.
Hearing Twilight's words, Li An smiled and shook his head, "Qingxun, I finally understand now, is this the reason why you show up every time I am in danger? So, you were also there when I met the man in black in Linyuan, right?" You were there when the headless resentful spirit Qin Yi stuck my throat, right!"
"Mother, do you still remember, that day I saw the snake shadow in the water, you said that I was dazzled, now that I think about it, do you still think I am dazzled?" Thinking back to the scene after meeting Qingxun, she thought it was the destined induction and fate between her and him, but she didn't expect it to be just a joke.
"Li'an, I don't. Qingxun opened his mouth to explain, "At first, I didn't show up when I was in Linyuan, because I wanted to investigate the identity of the man in black, but later when I learned that he was the Dragon King Ling Yi, I wanted to take revenge, for my father and mother, for the Water Snake Clan, but my strength was too weak, I ......"
"So, you think that you can get my spiritual power after dissolving the resentful spirit before him, and then take away my spirit bead, so that you have the strength to take revenge?" Li An smiled, but tears kept falling.
"At first, I did protect you because of the agreement, but, Li'an, you have entered my heart, and then as long as you go to the mortal world, I will watch you in the dark, I can't bear you to be hurt in any way, I don't want to see you sad and sad, I reminded you to take off the bracelet, but the bracelet has become one with you......"
"That's enough, Qingxun" Li'an slowly got up in the water, stood up with a fishtail despite the pain, and looked at Qingxun, "I just want to ask you, have you ever thought of using me?"
"Li'an!" Qingxun's eyes were full of unspeakable sorrow.
Li An looked straight at him, "Yes, or no?"
Qingxun stood up with his sword propped himself up, the corner of his mouth on the right side of his mouth was slightly raised, wanting to reveal his habitual evil smile, and tears slipped into his mouth.
"Yes!"
One word, shattered all Li'an's first illusions about love.
"My aunt said that I love someone when I think of him and I laugh, but all the pain in my body now is not as good as this heartache, I must be wrong. Closing his eyes, tears rolled down, and Li'an no longer saw clearly.
A golden light flashed, and Ling Yi urged the sword in his hand to go straight towards the distracted Li'an,
The leaping fishtail shone, the sound of the sword entering the chest was dull, and Twilight held the sword halfway into his chest with both hands.
At the same time as Ling Yi swung the sword out, Twilight revealed his true body and flew forward to catch the deadly sword for Li An.
"Mother!"
"Aunt Xi!"
At the same time, an exclamation sounded, and with the falling figure, it fell.
"Ahh
Li An flew to catch the falling twilight and hugged her tightly in her arms, "Mother, mother, don't scare An'er. ”
Wanting to condense spiritual power, but his hands kept trembling, Twilight in his arms gently held Li An's hand, shook his head, and opened his mouth with anger, "An'er, don't blame Qingxun, he is just confused for a while, if it weren't for us, Qingyuanjun would not have been targeted by Ling Yi, and the Water Snake Clan would not have been destroyed." ”
"Mother, I'll take you away, I'll take you back to Linyuan, don't speak. Tears kept falling from her eyes, and she held Twilight, struggling to get up from the water.
The cold hand caressed Li'an's cheek, "An'er, live well." ”
"Mother...", the hand on her face slipped down, and the person in her arms became lighter and lighter, turning into a fine fluorescent light and slowly rising into the night sky.
Li An still maintained the position she had just held, staring blankly at her empty hands.
Wiping away tears, Li'an reached out and grabbed the golden sword that pierced Twilight's chest and stood up from the water.
She looked up at the man standing above the water dungeon, a bloodthirsty smile on her face.
