Chapter 106: Diving into the Water Prison (2nd Update)
I tucked the map in my sleeve, pressed the brim of my cloak, and walked briskly through the ghost-filled alleyways.
Whenβ
Behind me, there seemed to be an iron ring on the ground, my eyelids jumped, my back seemed to be firmly locked by a pair of yin owl eyes, and I stiffened my body and did not dare to move.
"Turn around. β
This is the voice of Northern Liyue!
Although his voice is much weaker than it used to be, it is his that I have heard the most in the past hundred years, so it is quite easy to distinguish.
"Turn around!"
He was furious, and his big hand pressed against my shoulder, and he was very strong.
Hiss β
His hands were so strong that with the strength of his fingertips, he turned the thin fabric on my shoulders into powder.
In the next moment, he ripped off the cloak that was over me with one hand and took me into his arms.
He wrapped one hand around my waist, and with the other hand, he picked up the iron ring on the ground and put it around my neck, "Tonight, it's you!"
I reached out and tugged at the iron ring around my neck, deliberately changed my voice, and asked him, "What are you doing tonight?"
Bei Liyue frowned, threw me aside, and said fiercely, "Did the deity allow you to speak?"
I silenced, patted the dust off my body, stood upright, and walked in the opposite direction.
"Will the deity allow you to go?" As soon as he finished speaking, a palm wind struck me on my back.
I could have dodged to the side, but I was afraid that he would doubt my identity, so I stood there and slapped him alive.
"Disobedient, the deity has a way to make you bow down!" Bei Liyue walked around to me, reached out and pinched my cheek, a hint of doubt flashing in her light blue eyes.
I coughed up blood while clutching my chest and lowering my eyebrows to minimize my presence.
Although I have already transformed into a faceless female ghost, my body shape is not easy to change, for fear that Bei Liyue's sharp eyes will recognize me.
After a long time, he withdrew his gaze and said lightly, "Come with me." β
I nodded in resignation, and followed him slowly, through the ghostly alleyways, into the most extravagant palace.
"How did you come to the Ghost Fire Ancient Battlefield?" he asked in a deep voice, his sharp eyes scrutinizing me.
"I don't know. I whispered, lowering my head to my chest.
Bei Liyue hooked my jaw with one hand, and suddenly leaned her face closer, "The aura on your body is very strange. β
"The aura on your body is weird!, neither human, not demon, not immortal, not demon!" I retorted, trying to pretend to be stupid in front of him.
"Presumptuous!" Bei Liyue grabbed me by the collar and pushed me to the ground, "Ghost fire destroys bones!"
Boom β
The iron ring around my neck instantly ignited a dark green ghostly fire, burrowing straight under my flesh. The ghostly fire penetrated into the marrow of my bones, devouring my remnants in a frenzy.
"Hurt ......"
I shuddered from the fire and curled up in a corner to protect my heart.
Bei Liyue retracted her hand and stepped on the back of my hand, in a good mood, "Woman, you should be like you, faceless and skinless!"
"You probably don't know that not only am I faceless and skinless, but I'm also an out-and-out madman!"
As soon as I spoke, I grabbed his ankles with both hands and broke his leg bones with brute force.
Click-
He looked at me in amazement, holding on to his ankles, and a palm wind hit him, "I don't know if I live or die!"
I swung his palm wind around his lake blue coat and forcibly reversed the direction of the palm wind, causing it to hit his crotch.
Ordinary men can't stand such an attack, let alone Northern Liyue, who has just been out of the palace and doesn't know if his wounds have completely healed.
"Hmm......" he snorted, bent over his waist with a pained expression.
It seems that this is his weakness.
"Give me death!" Bei Liyue was annoyed and slammed her palm into my Heavenly Spirit Gai.
I thought that I would not be able to die if I was slapped by him anyway, and I could escape by faking my death, so I raised my head and met his strong palm wind without dodging.
Bei Liyue withdrew her hand again and again, and sighed in amazement, "If you are really crazy, you are not even afraid of death!"
I closed my eyes and waited for a long time, but finally I couldn't bear it anymore and peeked at him with half-squinted eyes.
Unexpectedly, he had already withdrawn and left, sitting cross-legged on the lotus throne to breathe and cultivate.
Under the lotus seat, there is a dark green ghost fire, which is endless, endless. It's a pity that the Vortex Hook was destroyed, otherwise I would have easily dissolved the power of the ghostly fire silently.
After waiting for a while, I saw that Northern Liyue was silent, so I tiptoed out of the house, looking around for the little girl's traces.
"Stop!
Two fierce guards stood at the door of the water prison, steel knives in their hands.
I pointed to my flesh-and-blood face and said in an unkind tone, "The Faceless Female Ghost that the Ghost Fire Bringer is the most favored nowadays!"
The doorman looked at each other and asked, "How do you prove that you are the most favored?"
I forced a smile, and I always felt that the ghosts in the ghost fire battlefield were not very good-looking, "Do you need to say this, have you ever seen a faceless female ghost who is better looking than me?"
"It's said it's a faceless female ghost, how do you tell what it looks like?" the doorman asked rhetorically.
I argued eloquently, "I just haven't seen a faceless female ghost who looks better than me! β
"Get out of the way! don't get out of the way, let Ah Li burn you to a dry corpse!" I crossed my hands on my hips and put on a look of unforgiving.
The doorman seemed to be terrified of Northern Liyue, and as soon as I heard me mention him, he craned his neck and strode to the sides.
They bowed and raised their arms to the central passage, "Please!"
"There are two Laos. I replied casually, swaggering into the black water prison in front of me.
Although I don't know what the mystery is in the water prison, but in the main city where the guards are not very strong, only the water prison gate is guarded by ghosts.
There must be a demon when things go wrong, and it's better to come in and explore the truth than to wander aimlessly.

In the dark cell, where you can't see your fingers, there is a faint sound of footsteps, accompanied by the sound of an uproar of water, which sounds leisurely and pierces the eardrums.
I turned around and caught off guard at a pair of eyes that still shone light blue in the darkness.
"Northern Liyue!" I screamed, backing back, and one fell into the not-so-deep water, splashing with sparkling water.
"And Song?" he hesitated for a moment, staring at my bloody face, his brow furrowed.
"What? deliberately lure me into the water prison, trying to imprison me without knowing it!"
He crouched down, quietly made a silent gesture, and whispered, "It's me, Beixianyue." β
Listening to the sound, it seems that it is really the northern quarter moon.
But I still lit the fire of thunder, and looked at him carefully by the light of the leaping fire.
I saw that his silhouette was deep, and his eyebrows were full of heroism, and the masculinity of the Northern Quarter Moon was stronger than that of the more feminine Northern Liyue.
I blew out the fire of heavenly thunder and let out a long sigh of relief, "Why are you?"
Bei Xianyue said helplessly, "After I sent Ono back to Qingqiu yesterday, I was shocked to find that Ali's grave had been dug up, only to know that he was not dead, but became a ghost fire messenger under the Holy Monarch's throne. I broke into this place in a rage, slashed him on the head and covered his face, and wanted to wake him up, but I didn't expect to be locked up in a water prison by him!"
