Chapter 175: The Long Nightmare
Although Lao Xiaotou's cultivation was no longer afraid of the spirit-level storm, those maids couldn't stand it.
So the group retreated along the canyon and prepared to return to the previous tribe, each making some preparations, leaving there completely, and building a new camp in this canyon. Maybe in the next few months, they will be in this area.
Virgen Peak.
Cui'er snuggled up in Lin Fulian's arms like a kitten, with a sweet smile on the corner of her mouth, smiling very contentedly and very pleasantly. For countless lonely nights, she longed for such arms to warm herself, but her identity and the terrible spirit made no one dare to approach her. Even the only grandmother was too angry with her, and almost never slept with her. When Cui'er was a child, her childhood seemed to be alive in loneliness and the strange eyes of others, so she had low self-esteem and a strong resentment in her bones. This is why she sometimes becomes very tyrannical and sometimes extremely sentimental. This is the result of the shadow of her childhood.
Huang Ling just strengthened something in her own personality, magnified it infinitely, and finally controlled her as a person. But at the end of the day, it was a part of her original existence, and if she had nothing to complain about, even the ancient demons would not be able to completely control it. This is also why Cui'er is easy to lose herself when she is angry, and why she completely loses the control of evil spirits when she perceives warmth, all of which come from something deep in her personality.
It's just that these people and things have now become her own shackles, if there is a Huang Ling, these characters can exist at the same time, either flaws or perfections, but at this time, such a character is infinitely magnified by the Huang Ling, so that it is incompatible, then she is bound to give up.
Staring at Cui'er's sleeping cheeks, Lin Fulian was also very conflicted in her heart, she didn't know how to define the relationship between herself and her, she was now very sorry for her experience on the one hand, and on the other hand, she wanted to try her best to erase her violent side.
Never mind! Some things just let it go as you like, Lin Fulian stared at Cui'er's pitiful cheeks, shook her head helplessly and sighed. She is not a saint, on the contrary, her Flin Sect is also not tolerated by the righteous path, and is in the middle of both good and evil, so she will not be that kind of guardian, she just wants to be worthy of her conscience, whether it is for the Flin Sect or Cui'er.
Aunt!
Just when Lin Fulian was in a trance, the little girl with long braids walked up to her, pouted, and said angrily: "Auntie, why don't you like Xing'er anymore."
Lin Fulian looked up at the jealous little girl in front of her, she didn't have a smile in her heart, she did ignore her feelings a little in the past few days, so that this girl had an opinion. Lin Fulian raised her hand slightly, and also hugged her in her arms and said, How can my aunt not like you? You're my aunt's only relative in the world.
The little girl with long braids snuggled up to Lin Fulian's arms, staring at Cui'er's sleeping face with bright eyes, and said with a somewhat complicated expression: "Auntie, I'm afraid...", don't look at Cui'er's harmless appearance at this time, but just a few days ago, she saw Cui'er kill tens of thousands of people with her own eyes. In this way, the killer demon king has left an extremely deep mark on the little girl's weak body and mind.
"Xing'er, don't be afraid, Sister Cui'er is not a wicked person" Lin Fulian immediately spoke to appease her, but Xiao Xing'er was obviously unnatural, and it seemed that one or two words alone could not expel the fear in her heart at all.
"Actually, Sister Cui'er is very pitiful, you and I have to care more about her in the future, so that she won't turn into a murderer at will" In order to dispel Xing'er's resistance, Lin Fulian must find a way to persuade her, this is also to protect her, you must know that the other side of Cui'er is a murderous spirit. This is the only way she can keep Apricot safe.
Xing'er seemed to understand something, blinked her big eyes, and nodded hesitantly, but there was a hint of reluctance in her hesitant eyes. The child's heart is the purest, so it is difficult for her to accept Cui'er without any guilt like an adult, but this has made Lin Fulian feel a lot more at ease.
Seven days have passed since that battle, and during this time, the Holy Maiden Peak has almost become the main altar of the Iris Palace, and countless Iris Palace disciples shuttle up and down the mountain all day long, and the original disciples of the Holy Maiden Peak are also incorporated into it. In addition, they also transported the jade coffin of the holy maiden down the mountain together, ready to be escorted back to the Kite Flower Palace.
In the past seven days, the Holy Maiden Peak has been generally calm, but the outside world has been extremely chaotic because of the appearance of the Rakshasa Army. Especially in the several interfaces near the Holy Maiden Peak, many of them directly abandoned their clan lands and fled with their families, and many families directly shuttled to the Holy Fire Realm, preparing to surrender to the Rakshasa Army. It's just that the Rakshasa Army only accepted the women and refused to accept them, but they still took them as the object of protection and got a verbal agreement that the Rakshasa Army would not pursue them. As a result, more plane families came one after another, all gathered in several small planes outside the Sacred Fire Realm.
In just seven days, more than a dozen small planes around the Holy Maiden Peak have been overcrowded, but there are still families who have arrived one after another. Living conditions are no longer so important as the survival of the family.
These things have always been handled by several elders of the Iris Palace, so Lin Fulian doesn't need to be distracted at all, the only thing she has to do now is how to keep Cui'er in this sane state for more time. Nor did these sisters who had been fighting for days fight for as much space as possible to rest. You must know that once the Brilliant Spirit awakens, then the Rakshasa soldiers will definitely face a new war, and at that time, they may no longer be able to live as comfortably as they do now.
Lin Fulian cherished this very much, and would never allow anyone to come to the Holy Maiden Peak to disturb them, so even if there was a disturbance outside, they were still peaceful here. Especially on the north side of the Virgen Peak, where the scenery is beautiful and the mountains are wonderful, you will feel a kind of natural wonder when you stand here. Lin Fulian held Xing'er in one hand and Cui'er in the other, and the three of them hiked on the edge of this steep valley, feeling the spirit of heaven and earth, as if the realm of life had also been sublimated at this time.
But it's not going to go on like this.... Just as Lin Fulian was standing on top of that lonely peak like a fairy, several Iris Palace elders behind her hurriedly rushed in front of the three of them. One of the Iris Elders ignored the threat in Lin Fulian's eyes, and simply bowed down to Cui'er, and said, "Palace Master, the Eight Sects have formed an alliance, they have gathered hundreds of thousands of troops, and they are gathering at the edge of the Divine Water Realm, please ask the Palace Master for instructions."
Cui'er was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then looked sideways at Lin Fulian, her eyes were full of confusion and confusion at this time.
Lin Fulian frowned slightly, then glanced at the few iris elders on the ground and said, "Didn't you say that you should be in charge of everything."
Elder Iris immediately retorted, "But the matter is beyond the scope of our choice, and we look forward to the return of the palace master."
"Hmph" Lin Fulian sneered with some displeasure: "Haven't you called yet?" Why are you in a hurry? βγ
The Elder Kite said with a breathless mouth: "If we really fight, we will have no way to retreat, it is hundreds of thousands of elite troops."
When Lin Fulian heard this, she was also quite embarrassed, she said it easily, but she was still extremely worried in her heart. After all, it's a matter of life and death for all of them.
So she was silent for a long time before turning to Cui'er and saying, "I don't know if the palace master has a choice?" βγ
When Cui'er heard this, her simple face became even more suspicious, her eyebrows frowned, her phoenix eyes turned around a few times, and she shook her head and said, "I don't know.... Sister Lin is in charge of everything", at this time, Cui'er's IQ is like a child, how can she deal with such a complicated matter.
Looking at Cui'er's slightly immature expression, Lin Fulian's heart fell into a tangle again, she really couldn't figure out whether she wanted such a naΓ―ve palace master or a powerful evil spirit master. She was genuinely hesitant at this point, especially when everyone was focused on her, waiting for her to make an idea. You must know that she has no strength to face the next changes, and she can't deal with the alliance of millions of clans, even if it is the strength of a clan.
Lin Fulian was silent, and the entire Holy Maiden Peak was silent, waiting for them to make a final decision.
The mountain wind brought a touch of autumn cold, and also made Lin Fulian gradually recover from that state of distraction, and with a trace of sadness in her eyes, she turned to Cui'er. She stammered for a long time, but she still couldn't say a word. That's right, in the current situation, it is the best choice to let the brilliant spirit come out of her body, but how can she be so cruel to do such a thing.
In the silence, Lin Fulian's body radiated a maternal radiance, she turned behind her sharply, stared at those Iris Palace elders and asked, "Let's withdraw from the Holy Fire Realm and return to the Iris Palace."
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding iris disciples were shocked, they never thought that Lin Fulian would say such a thing.
Several Iris Elders knelt down to Lin Fulian and begged: "Deputy Palace Master, we can't retreat, once we retreat, people's hearts will be scattered, and then there will be no need for the Eight Sects to encircle and suppress, and the Iris Palace will also collapse."
A group of Kite Palace disciples also knelt on the ground in unison, and they were also extremely clear about the current situation.
"You can't retreat, you can't advance, what do you want to do?" Lin Fulian roared loudly in great confusion, and her emotions were also forced out of anger at this time.
At this moment, the few Iris Elders said in their hearts: "Change back to our palace master, we need her, only she can lead us all to live."
After a sentence, almost everyone looked up again and focused their eyes on Lin Fulian. Looking at the pair of extremely demanding eyes around her, Lin Fulian was confused again, she didn't know how to choose, on the one hand, Cui'er, the friendship of sisters, and on the other hand, tens of thousands of women's lives. All of this seemed to weigh on her like a heavy shackle on her heart, making her a little breathless. With a flick of her hand, she smashed a boulder beside her, then rolled up the gravel and threw it down the cliff.
Standing on the top of the peak, she glanced down with a cold gaze, and at this time there seemed to be a fire in her heart, enough to burn the anger of the world.
Lin Fulian finally compromised, she turned to stare at Cui'er, and said with tears of great shame: "I'm sorry for you... But I can't help it."
Cui'er stared at Lin Fulian's cheeks with tears in her eyes, and said kindly: "Sister, don't be sad, Cui'er doesn't want to see you sad, if you can make your sister happy, Cui'er is willing to do anything."
Lin Fulian couldn't restrain herself from blaming herself in her heart anymore, and hugged Cui'er and cried bitterly. Her cry was so terrible that everyone present was moved. Just as they could cry, several Iris Palace elders had already walked up to them, took Cui'er's wrist and walked out of the Holy Maiden Palace together.
Despair and fear spread among everyone in the Valley of the Eighteen Kings, causing even more collapse in the hearts of those who were on the verge of collapse. They looked at each other, and the panic continued to spread.
At Taniguchi, Takumi's eyes turned red and bulging, and he knew that the last moment had come. Under such a murderous demon king, no one can resist. Even if it is an uncrowned king, it seems that this time the Valley of the Eighteen Kings will not be as lucky as the previous times, but the Eighteen Kings still escaped this catastrophe.
As the figures outside the valley flocked, countless ghosts broke through the first line of protection, and at this time, the black pressure momentum swept in like a violent wind.
Just when Takumi was already desperate in his heart, he was dragged into the valley from behind.
Then several mysterious black-clad soldiers woke him up from his trance: "Young master, we are here to send you out."
"What? You guys? Hurry up and save people" Tuohai woke up from the horror and saw clearly that the person who came was the personal guard of the Eighteen Kings.
"No, the mysterious passage can only pass through one person, they can't do anything about it," one of the guards replied in a resolute tone.
"What" Takumi was stunned again, and he sat on the ground weakly at random, he wanted to cry without tears, and his voice was almost hoarse and roared.
"Young master, hurry up, there's no time," one of the guards urged.
"No, I'm not leaving" Takumi's eyes flashed with a hint of determination, and he turned to the panicked crowd and said, "They are all my subjects, they are all here, I will never leave."
One sentence made several internal guards also look at each other, but they were internal guards, not the guards of the Eighteen Valleys, and they had the right to coerce the young man, so they didn't care about carrying Takumi, struggled all the way out of the canyon, found a boulder and turned over, and saw a mysterious tunnel entrance.
Several internal guards saluted Takumi and said, "Young master, take care, we are offended, but we will not do it again", and after saying that, they threw him down with all their might.
As the vortex turned transparent, Takumi vanished from the tunnel.
Everything seems to turn into a water background, and Takumi feels like a long nightmare.
When he woke up, he found himself lying on a comfortable bed, and he felt very comfortable. There were all kinds of fruits and meat beside him, and it looked like the kind of fine clothes and food he had before. Takumi felt a little for a moment, as if the Demon King's invasion was an illusion, but now it was real. Soon, however, those strange maids came in, and Takumi knew that this was not the Valley of the Eighteen Kings.
