Chapter 186: I'll Protect You
"If you don't give it a try, how can you make Hua Yan obediently hand over the Soul Eater Cup?" Ruobai's tone was indifferent. Flash Dance
"But... The Soul Eater doesn't seem to be in his hands, even if he has some connection with Lu Dabao, it doesn't have to be... ”
"It's not helpful to say more." Hearing Yan Ruo's defense for Hua Yan, and seeing her hesitation, Ruobai was even more unhappy in his heart.
Yan Ruo knew his temperament very well, closed his mouth in a daze, silently retreated behind him, watched him cast a spell to divide the lake from the middle, and when he saw him walk in, he himself followed.
The further I went, the more uneasy I became, and I was so depressed that I was almost out of breath.
When he was about to reach the sealed place deep at the bottom of the lake, Yan Ruo stretched out his hand and grabbed Ruobai. "Shall we go back? I always felt that we shouldn't have come, that Mo Xiu's power was not something you and I could compete with. ”
Ruobai thought that she was reluctant to hurt Mo Xiu, her eyes darkened, she glanced at her, and continued to walk forward without saying a word.
Always soft-hearted, always subject to others.
Yan Ruo saw that he still refused to listen, so he struggled for a while, but he still followed.
At the bottom of the lake, ghosts were everywhere, rampage around the Zhenling Pillar, but they didn't dare to rush up because of the power of the Bundle Immortal Rope, and those resentful spirits circled around Mo Xiu, eyeing and waiting for an opportunity to move.
The arrival of Yan Ruo and Ruobai alarmed those resentful spirits, and they were so frightened that they hid one after another, observing the movement in the dark.
Mo Xiu was not surprised by their arrival, and when he saw Yan Ruo, he slowly showed a smile to her, just like a long, long time ago, when he made a mistake and wanted to be punished, he would always show this sweet smile to her to intercede and escape punishment. But now such a smile is a gift for reunion after a long absence.
After all, it was because of her that he was imprisoned at the bottom of this lake for tens of thousands of years.
Yan Ruo looked at him without blinking, he seemed to have grown a little bigger, taller and longer, and his hair was long, but because no one took care of him, he had to be draped behind his shoulders. The only face that hasn't changed much is also a little less childish, and a lot of gloom has been added between the eyebrows.
Mo Xiu was handsome, and this was evident when he was very young. There are always many palace ladies and fairies who like to go to the Moon Immortal Mansion to see him, or bring him some food, or bring him clothes made by himself, in short, when he was very young, Mo Xiu was more popular than the Lord of Heaven and Earth.
It's just that now, with the years precipitating, Mo Xiu's smile is still very sweet, but the innocence in his eyes is no longer there. In the end, the years are merciless.
The three of them were mysteriously silent.
Yan Ruo couldn't help but speak, as if explaining, and as if he was comforting Mo Xiu: "Don't be afraid, we won't hurt you, we also need your cooperation, play a bitter trick, deceive Hua Yan and Fu Qingxue, and let them hand over the Soul Devouring Cup, it's okay." ”
Subconsciously, Yan Ruo took out a piece of candy from his arms and wanted to hand it to Mo Xiu.
She also treated him like a child. She always treats him as a child, even if thousands of years have passed, Mo Xiu is still the innocent child in her heart who has not been pestered by her to ask for candy.
Mo Xiu looked at her and laughed lowly: "Good sister, it's hard for you to remember that I like to eat sugar." But now, ordinary sugar is not sweet enough, these tens of millions of years of captivity are too bitter, how can such a small piece of sugar be enough? ”
"I..." Yan Ruo withdrew his hand and unconsciously clenched the piece of candy.
"Heh-" Mo Xiu sneered, his deep voice seemed to come from a distant time and space, ethereal and sad. "Good sister, will you take me out of here? I don't want any artifact or the identity of the demon lord, you let me go back to you, okay? ”
Just like a long time ago, the young man pulled her sleeve and looked up and begged: "Good sister, I'll eat another piece, okay?" I'm done with my schoolwork, so I'll eat another piece of candy, okay? ”
Good no good?
Yan Ruo was in a trance, and suddenly turned his head away and chose to be silent.
"Mo Xiu." Ruobai couldn't let him continue to speak, his voice was extremely cold, and he said expressionlessly: "You should know what kind of fate it is to fall into the devil's path. ”
"Falling into the devil's way, it is naturally a person of the demon race, and since then he has been at ease, he doesn't have to stick to the old rules or abide by those boring rules, and he is very free." Mo Xiu scoffed.
Ruobai felt that he was hopeless, and reprimanded: "Nonsense! The immortal cultivator's heart is not right and has fallen into the devil's path, and he should be punished by thunder by eliminating the immortal bones, and he will think about his sins at the bottom of this lake for eternity! ”
"Why be so excited." Mo Xiu disagreed, "You're in such a hurry, isn't it because the young lady is worried about me?" ”
Mo Xiu's face was full of ridicule, and he looked directly at Ruobai: "Do you think that now that you are standing in front of me, you can teach me a lesson without shame?" Or do you think that the young lady likes you, so you can hurt me unscrupulously? ”
"Great Heaven and Earth Commander, who do you think you are, in my eyes, you are just a negative man, a shameless person who hurts the young lady and brazenly uses her!"
Mo Xiu's words undoubtedly made Ruobai angry, but Ruobai was afraid of Yan Ruo's presence, so he endured it stiffly. The fist in his sleeve slowly loosened, and he said indifferently: "You don't need to use the agitation method, it's too small for pediatric things, it's not enough to see at all." ”
Yan Ruo was surprised by Ruobai's words, but she was even more worried about Mo Xiu, worried that if the two of them fought, it would be her fault to help anyone.
"Yanruo, I have something to say to him, you go up first." Ruobai's face was not good, but his tone was as gentle as possible, for fear of scaring her, "Good, don't worry." ”
Yan Ruo shook his head. This kind of Ruobai is really abnormal.
"Why don't you go quickly?" Ruobai saw that she didn't move, and actually reprimanded her, "You shouldn't be disobedient, and disobedient children will be punished." Before he could finish speaking, he cast a spell to freeze the words, and then sent her to the lake.
"Ruobai-" Yan Ruo's voice was no longer audible, and only Ruobai and Mo Xiu were left at the bottom of Ruoshui Lake.
"Damn it!" Yan Ruo couldn't unlock his immobilization spell, so she could only sit on the shore and wait for someone to rescue her.
I just waited for a long time, but no one passed by. Until Ruoshui Lake began to surge, Yan Ruo couldn't know the situation at the bottom of the lake, he was sweating in a hurry, and in a hurry, he actually unlocked the fixing spell, Yan Ruo was happy, and hurriedly stood up to return to the bottom of the lake to stop the two of them from fighting.
"God!" Jin Zhi hurriedly ran over to support her, and said angrily, "What's wrong with you, what if you don't pay attention and fall?" Fortunately, I came in time, so in such a hurry, do you want to sneak down to play again? ”
"I'm fine, you go get busy first, I'll go back to the Star Pavilion after a while." Yanruo waved her hand and motioned for her to leave first.
But if Jinzhi listened to her, she wouldn't be Jinzhi. "No, your body is not well, you are already weak, if you don't pay attention to rest, what if you recur your old disease?" Jin Zhi was not at ease, and seeing that Ruoshui Lake was not calm, she asked worriedly, "God, aren't you going down to inspect the situation?" ”
"If Bai is below, I'm worried that Mo Xiu will be angry, and the Bundle Immortal Rope and the Spirit Pillar won't be able to suppress him." Yan Ruo's brows furrowed tightly, looking at the churning lake, as if he had made up his mind, he instructed Jin Zhi, "Jin Zhi, you go to Yaoguang Xianshang and Yuexiao Xianshang, if you have time, go and call the three elders of the beast world together, and say that if there is a change in the water lake." Just go! ”
Seeing her serious expression, Jin Zhi didn't dare to delay, so she hurriedly responded and immediately ran to Yuexian Mansion to find someone. It's just that before she could run a few steps, she was suddenly attacked and flew a few meters away, and fell heavily to the ground.
"Jin Zhi!" Yan Ruo was shocked, and immediately ran over to set an enchantment around her, sending her some spiritual power, seeing her open her eyes, she was glad that the injury was not serious, so she had time to see Fu Qingxue who suddenly appeared.
Fu Qingxue was the first to arrive, preventing Jin Zhi from moving the rescuers, and then Hua Yan also arrived, and the four of them looked at each other coldly, wary of each other.
They don't need to ask about their intentions, if Mo Xiu breaks free from the immortal rope, plus the two of them, I'm afraid that even if Yuexiao and Yaoguang come, it will be difficult to have a chance of winning.
"I don't mean to hurt you, as long as you stay away, I promise I won't hurt anyone here." Hua Yan opened her mouth and took out the Soul Eater Cup. "Because even if you resist, you will not be able to send yourself to death."
Yan Ruo subconsciously protected Jin Zhi behind him, looked at the soul devouring cup in Hua Yan's hand, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. It turns out that the Soul Eater is really in his hands.
"You let her go, and I'll leave you at your disposal." Yan Ruo tried to send Jin Zhi away.
Fu Qingxue glared at her coldly: "You think we are stupid?" Let her go, let her move the rescuers? ”
Jin Zhi grabbed Yan Ruo's hand at once, although she was scared, she didn't want to leave, she didn't want to leave Yan Ruo alone. She has heard those fairies say since she was a child that the people of the demon clan and the demon clan are vicious, killing people without blinking, if it falls into their hands, they will either die or be tortured mad demons, and that kind of pain is not something that anyone can bear.
"I'm not going to tell her to move the rescuers, now that you have the upper hand, I'm not going to let her risk her death. Let her get out of here, whatever the mortal flower world is still your demon race, as long as she can ensure her safety, she can go anywhere. Yan Ruo didn't look at Fu Qingxue, just looked at Hua Yan, and asked lightly, "Jin Zhi is still a child, she doesn't understand anything, I beg you, let her leave." ”
"Huh, kid?" Fu Qingxue sneered, "I didn't know that the gods were so kind, and the little fairy who had lived for thousands of years was still a child in your eyes." ”
Jin Zhi nervously grabbed Yan Ruo's hand, shrunk behind her, her eyes were full of fear, hearing Fu Qingxue's sour ridicule, somehow, Jin Zhi was obviously scared, but she looked up at her, and kept her smug and mean look firmly in her heart.
These people, they all deserve to die.
Jin Zhi felt as if something was breaking through the ground in her body, and she couldn't tell whether it was fear or hatred, all of them came together, like a seedling, little by little, slowly growing and gradually becoming stronger.
The ground suddenly shook violently, and the water lake also suddenly swelled violently, and two water columns rose into the sky, and two afterimages, one white and one black, swept in front of everyone's eyes, and flew into the sky and disappeared.
As if summoned by some kind of summons, Jin Zhi suddenly held Yan Ruo's hands in the palm of her hand, and in Yan Ruo's shocked gaze, Jin Zhi showed a sweet smile to her, and said slowly: "Yan Ruo, I remember everything, don't worry, I won't let you die." You've watched over me for 2,000 years, and that's enough. Now, I'll protect you for once. ”
