Chapter 44: Change

The bricks and tiles shattered, and the slag that shook off glistened silver in the electric light. The medicine people devoured a large amount of hedron powder, and their bodies became extremely hard, cracking through the walls and stones, and dismantling the tower body and burrowing into the tower.

Under the manipulation and guidance of the corpse chaser, they rummaged through the smell layer by layer. These medicine men rely on instinct to find things, and if there is a cover, they will directly destroy the objects in front of them, which is extremely rude. Finally, they turned over the cover and found a demon artifact on the middle floor of the tower.

It was a small stove with purple powder burning and an odorless white smoke. The medicine people knocked over the furnace, was scalded by the medicine powder, and bit and grabbed it like crazy, instantly breaking the demon artifact into a broken copper piece, and gradually dissolving itself into a pool of green blood, flowing wantonly along the ground.

"The monster is destroyed." The corpse chaser said to Jiang Chenghua.

This thing is so fierce that even the medicine man who has been refined with poisonous blood will turn into pus and blood after touching it, and there is no need to think about the consequences for ordinary people.

Losing the blessing of the demon artifact, the Witch Emperor in mid-air only felt a surge of qi and blood, and at this moment, Sui Han took his cane, and a green light pierced through the flying sand all over the sky and pierced into his heart.

"It is worthy of being the Heavenly Clan Divine Officer Sui Han who commanded 100,000 soldiers, and I admit it if I lose it at your hands." The flowing flame slowly descended, stepping on the eaves of the tower, and the fiery red robe became more vivid after being soaked in blood. He looked at Sui Han, who also fell on the opposite side, and suddenly sneered, "It's just that I don't understand, how can you cooperate with Lihong?" Don't forget, your fiancΓ©e, the princess of the Celestial Clan, died at his hands! ”

Sui Han looked at him sympathetically, and said for a long time: "You have been with him for so long, and you haven't found out that he is not your own brother Lihong?" ”

"Even if he looks the same, you should have noticed that he has completely changed."

"What did you say?" Flowflame said incredulously, "Tell me, who is he?" ”

Although he and Lihong are brothers, they have been separated since childhood, and they reunited many years later, so they naturally know little about each other's true nature. It's just that he never thought that this Lihong was fake from the beginning.

"I believe in him, because he is also a celestial." Sui Han saw that he didn't live long, and he didn't want him to die unclear, so he slowly told the truth, "He is the floating boat that died with your brother in the rumors, Ni Shang is his imperial sister, how could he poison her?" ”

"Pontoon...... How could it be a floating boat......" Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and he fell from the tower on his back. With a few loud bangs, Julei Tower began to collapse, and the sand and gravel flew wildly, quickly burying him completely.

Sui Han got up to avoid it, and after all the dust settled, he stopped beside Jiang Chenghua and withdrew the wind shield.

Jiang Chenghua saw that he was dusty and distributed shawls, but he was not unscathed, and knew that the battle was quite dangerous.

"The Witch Emperor is still alive." Sui Han looked at the ruins and said, "I can't kill him, I can only temporarily abolish him." When the great master returns, he will deal with it personally. ”

On the other side, the battle of the three Dharma Protectors has also ended. Mu Huo held the thick earth that was seriously injured, and the weak water, which was also not lightly injured, guarded the corpse of the wind.

In the distance, the people and horses sent by the national teacher to meet arrived, a group of red cloaks helped the wounded and dead on stretchers, and another group came to Jiang Chenghua.

The leader is Sleepless, and looking at her costume, it seems that she has become a high-ranking member of the Witch Cult. She was full of ambition, stretched out her hand to him on the horse, and smiled like a star: "Come up!" ”

Jiang Chenghua flew on his horse, landed behind Sleepless, and held the reins. He looked at Sui Han again, and when he whistled, a great white horse appeared in front of him, and went with them.

In the palace, the wizards sent by the Witch Emperor to assassinate were rushed to pieces by the army of the four princes, Yan Xi, and they had already collapsed. The two sides were still fighting, and Yan Xi strode into the main hall and asked Yan Longxing for his guilt.

The only son who could be relied on came, and Yan Longxing asked those Praetorian Guards to retreat first, and asked Yan Xi how the battle was going outside.

Yan Xi said everything as it was, and seeing that Yan Longxing's limbs were weak, he knew that the effect of his medicine had not faded.

Seeing his eyes, Yan Long said, "Fourth, why did you come so timely?" ”

"Father, don't you even start to doubt your sons?" Yan Ci felt a chill in his heart.

"Who gave you the guts? I'm asking you! Yan Longxing suddenly became angry, if it weren't for the weakness of his limbs, he wanted to give this son a kick.

Yan Xi didn't want to do too much, but he couldn't help it.

When the shouting and killing outside stopped, so did the fight between father and son.

The emperor died.

It is rumored that the witch cult fought for power with the imperial court, and sent Liao Guifei to poison and kill the old emperor. The heroic crown prince Yan Xi ascended the throne as emperor, and at the same time ordered the great master to take over as the witch emperor.

When Lihong received the news, the annual martial arts event of the four major sects had already been held halfway through, and a large number of disciples who were not in the stream had been brushed down.

"I wonder when His Majesty the Witch Emperor will return to Agni City?" The guards who came to report knelt on the ground and said.

"Ha ......" Li Hong said with a smile, "When did I promise Yan Xi to succeed the Witch Emperor?" ”

"Your Majesty the Witch Emperor, aren't you embarrassed?" The guards kowtowed.

"Arrive in Flame City in five days, and as for taking over as the Witch Emperor, I will talk to him in detail." After Li Hong gave an accurate answer, he kicked him out.

As soon as he turned around again, Ding Ruoyu, who had originally gone to Lou Xue to learn swords, came back and knelt straight behind him.

Li Hong took two steps back: "Which one are you playing?" ”

"Lord Witch Emperor!" She respectfully kowtowed, knelt on the ground and said, "I have offended many times in the past, and I hope Your Majesty will be gracious!" ”

Li Hong pulled her up, gently hugged her in his arms, and suddenly tightened his arms, carrying her off the ground and spun around quickly.

Ding Ruoyu was so frightened that his heart jumped to his throat, clutching his clothes tightly, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Looking at her red little face, Li Hong suddenly asked, "You don't like me, do you?" ”

Ding Ruoyu was taken aback, hurriedly let go, looked away and said, "You don't let me like you, why should I like it." ”

"yes," Lihong let go of her, "I almost forgot." ”

Ding Ruoyu pushed the door out a little embarrassed, stayed with Lou Xue all day long, and hid in the room early to sleep when he returned to the room at night, and no longer talked nonsense with him.

In the middle of the night, she suddenly felt that something was wrong, rolled over, and got into the arms of another person.

The bone-chilling skin sucked up all the heat in the bed, and she almost kicked it out.

"How did you climb up?" She asked, sleepy-eyed.

"I'm tired of meditating." Li Hong turned his head to look at her.

The candlelight from outside came through, dim and soft.

Ding Ruoyu looked at his lazy eyes with a hint of bewilderment, and suddenly frowned. The look in his eyes was exactly the same as when he fell asleep that day, as if he were a stranger.

"Don't worry," he said, "you were also a man and woman at the Death Camp, so there was no need to be so nervous. ”

"Why?" Ding Ruoyu shrank up coldly, and said incomprehensibly, "Don't let me have a good impression of you, and take the initiative to come over again......"

"That was before, it's different now." Li Hong's gaze changed back to his usual appearance, and he sighed lightly, "It's still not good, I'm too cold, I'm afraid I'll freeze you." ”

As he spoke, he went out to meditate again.

Ding Ruoyu's outstretched hand stopped outside, and it was frozen cold for a while.

His attitude has changed too quickly, what is he hiding?

In the middle of the night, under the Demon Suppression Tower, the bottom layer cracked a hundred-zhang deep valley. There were faint celestial runes flickering at the crack at the mouth of the valley, and the further down it was, there was another mysterious and unpredictable demon rune formation.

At the end of the deep valley sits the ruins of the barren Demon Domain. Judging from the traces left on the buildings and the mountain, it was a place where the war was extremely bad.

Passing through another complex formation, a ruined palace appeared in front of you. On the lintel, the three words of the Netherworld Hall are written in demon characters, and in the sealed temple door, there is a faint sound of a terrible ghost cry.

In the center of the main hall, on the cold and broken cold jade pillar, a young man who looked to be eighteen or nineteen years old was bound with golden chains, he was ragged, covered in wounds, and was bitten and devoured by more than a hundred dead spirits fluttering in the hall from time to time. But in just an instant, the spell on the pillar would glow with golden light again, and the wounds on his body would be restored as before, so that he would suffer from the devouring of a hundred demons but never die.

The silent boy was bitten to pieces, and then returned to his original state in an instant. He suddenly opened his eyes, and it was the scarlet pupil that was unique to the demons. With a "click", he broke a golden chain, and when the demon pounced again, he grabbed the golden chain and drew it, beating the dead spirits to pieces.

However, this blow also reached his limit at the moment. He fell asleep again, and the torn golden chains returned to their place of their own accord as if they were alive, holding him firmly to the pillar once again.

The necromancers in the hall swarmed up and competed for each other, as if they were avenging the few vanished demons, devouring the young man on the pillar until only a pair of white bones remained.

There was no suspense about the results of the martial arts competition, the four major sects really took the lead, and the other small sects and small sects were not even comparable to their outer disciples. Next, there was a contest between the four chief disciples. Baihumen was originally the two chiefs, and the daughter of the head didn't want to participate, so only Du Changfeng came to the stage.

These days, Ding Ruoyu has watched their drills one move at a time, and he also has a good understanding of Lou Xuejiao's sword moves. These days, when I have time, I go to the courtyard of Louxue to practice swords, and occasionally I can see Pian Pian and Wusheng Sword talking and discussing in one place. It seems that the relationship between the two has eased, and although it may not be possible to become a couple, it is absolutely fine to become brothers.

"When you go back, don't reveal the moves you've learned here." got into the carriage on the way back, and Li Hong told her.

Originally, Ding Ruoyu didn't care much about it, but when he mentioned it, he suddenly reacted. At this time, some of the things he arranged were actually preparing for her to return to the Ding family in the future.

Tianlong's painting, Bai Lou Xue as a teacher, and this decent sword move...... is all explaining what her situation has been over the years.

"Why prepare so early? I'm eighteen years old, and I'm still four ......years away," she remembered, and a sudden uneasiness swelled in her heart.
