Chapter 120: The Death of the Shadow
Under the scorching sun, the blood-red peach blossoms became more and more delicate. The sand dunes in the distance were filled with quivering mist, and the heat was prohibitive.
In the depths of the peach blossom forest, a man in white is suspended in the air, there is a peach tree in each of the eight directions around him, from a high place it is a gossip map, the peach trees of Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun, and the eight directions are different, and the man in white hanging in the middle is half-leaning back, his arms are stretched, as if he is carrying out a sacrificial ritual.
"Oh no, here they go!" Yu Xin, who was behind Miao Ren, said loudly.
"What? What started? Xi Ning grabbed the placket of her chest and asked fiercely.
"They're starting to absorb his spiritual power, there, in the depths of the peach blossoms!" Yu Xin pointed to the peach blossom forest and said, "I don't want to live anymore if I do a sacrificial ceremony without a priest!" ”
"Not good! Xiao Xi, that's Brother Sen. Miao Ren stepped forward and said anxiously.
Xi Ning took a closer look, and the man in white hanging in the air was Ethan. "Click" pulled out the crescent moon slash, stomped on the spot and jumped dozens of meters, and flew towards the peach forest.
Ethan's eight major acupuncture points on his body, Fengchi Acupoint, Quchi Acupoint, Neiguan Acupoint, Hegu Acupoint, Houxi Acupoint, Huanqiao Acupoint, Zusanli Acupoint, and Yinmen Acupoint each inserted a needle, and then led the peach tree with a red thread, and the blood beads on the red line slowly rolled down and dripped into the jade box tied to the peach tree, Xi Ning was stunned by what he saw in front of him.
"Yi'er!" Xi Ning shouted and was about to step forward, when three people walked out of the peach forest opposite, and the younger woman stopped him with a loud voice: "No one can save him at this time." If you go up and touch him, you will hasten his death. ”
"What do you want, let him down!" Xi Ning's trembling hand tightly grasped the hilt of the crescent slash, she was enduring it. Suppressed his anger at wanting to step forward and slash the three of them.
"Let my master go!" The young woman pointed to the old man who was tied behind Miao Ren and said.
"You let Brother Sen go first, otherwise you won't talk about it." Miao Ren said loudly.
"Really?" The young woman was none other than Ling Yuzhen, the sect leader of the Ling Sect, and I saw her slowly stepping forward with a sword, standing where Ethan was, and pressing the sword against his back and saying, "If you dare to say anything about it, this sword doesn't have long eyes." ”
"Let it go, let it go! Don't mess around! Xi Ning pushed it out with Yu Xin's neckline. But he missed the success in his heart. Yu Xin glanced at Ling Yuzhen, who was standing in the center, and nodded slightly.
"Next. The game has officially begun, Her Majesty! Ling Yuzhen saw Yu Xin walking behind her and said, "The man who robbed me of Ling Yuzhen also sent someone to destroy my Ling Zong's headquarters." Let's settle this account slowly. ”
"What Ling Zong? I don't know. Xi Ning anxiously argued.
"To know or not to know? It doesn't matter anymore, let's just play the game. Ling Yuzhen walked around the direction of the gossip, and glanced at Yu Wu, who was reciting words with his eyes closed at this time, and sat on the ground after Yu Xin untied his shackles, and his hands were still in place after a complicated handprint.
"Master, they're stalling for time." The shadow strode forward. Do the momentum to rush out to save people.
"It's best that none of you are angry, otherwise your life will be gone, haha...... Ha ha...... His Royal Highness King Ning, who is invincible, even has today. It's so funny. Ling Yuzhen wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said with a smile.
"Oh no, we're poisoned." Wei Hu tried to use his true qi, and a sharp stinging pain came from his meridians.
Miao stepped forward and was about to make a move, when he suddenly felt a tingling pain in his chest. He fell to the ground in an instant.
"Hey...... fell for my aunt's soul extraction Gu, even if you are a fox. It is also difficult to escape the pain of divorce. Ling Yuzhen glanced at Yu Wen and said.
"What the hell do you want to do?" Xi Ning gradually calmed down, she wanted these people in front of her to die, and none of them would be left. She asked aloud with her help Miao Ren.
"I want you dead!" Ling Yuzhen said word by word.
"Don't think!" Miao Ren shouted eagerly, because he was too hard, and the great pain in his heart made him bend down and shrink into a ball. At this time, he felt deceived, thinking about last night, he was obviously trapped in the formation by them, but he unloaded the formation at dawn, and pretended to be weak and fell to the ground, which is why he was arrested. Everything is a conspiracy, pretending to be caught, and then poisoning everyone.
"Really? Now I say, Your Majesty, do you want to find out for yourself? Or did I help you get to know your sweetheart? Ling Yuzhen pointed at Miao Ren, and Miao Ren's pain intensified in an instant.
"Little fox." Xi Ning hurriedly hugged Miao Ren's trembling body and yelled at Ling Yuzhen: "Okay, okay, stop quickly!" I listen to you. ”
Yu Wen's fingertips were gently retracted, Miao Ren stopped trembling, his hand tightly grasped Xi Ning's clothes, and his eyes looked at Xi Ning with pleading eyes and shook his head.
"Give them the antidote! I do what you want! Xi Ning let go of him, stood up, and raised the crescent slash in his hand high.
The shadow looked anxiously at the knife that glittered in the sun, and he felt dizzy after not drinking water for a day.
A mouthful of blood spurted out of Yu's heart, and she stared back in disbelief with wide eyes.
At this time, everyone heard this voice and hurriedly looked up. A man dressed in white cloth and wearing a black black iron mask appeared behind Yu Xin, a long sword piercing her chest. Seeing the mask man quickly pulled out his long sword, the blood in his heart and chest spurted out, like a deflated balloon, and he fell to the ground.
Yu Wen jumped up at that moment, and Yu Wu was still insisting on doing the final sacrificial ceremony. It didn't mean that Wen didn't make any moves, Yu Wu also fell to the ground in an instant, and the black shadow that appeared out of thin air behind her directly cut her throat with a sword.
Ling Yuzhen raised his sword and quickly stabbed Ethan who was slowly falling, Xi Ning ran out at the same time to protect Ethan in his arms, although it was very fast, but he only had time to catch him, Ling Yuzhen's speed was very fast, and the distance was close, and after Xi Ning hugged Ethan tightly, he only had time to turn his back to Ling Yuzhen's sword. At this critical moment, the sound of the "poof" sword piercing into the flesh sounded.
Xi Ning closed his eyes tightly, and the pain in waiting did not appear. She hurriedly turned back, on the ground behind her. The shadow fell in a pool of blood.
"No!" Xi Ning felt that the blood in his heart was flowing backwards, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, staining Ethan's white clothes red.
Miao Ren, who was attached to Weihu, witnessed this moment. He couldn't believe that the shadow could have that speed at that time. Wei Long endured the stinging pain in the meridians and came to Xi Ning's body and took Ethan in her arms.
"The old man is still a step too late!" An old voice sounded on the tip of the peach blossom tree, and everyone looked up and saw an old man in a black robe, full of fairy wind and bones, standing at the end of the peach blossom tree. He flew down to Ethan's side and fed him a red pill. I fed Miao Ren another one.
"I'm sorry! I'm late! The visitor stepped forward and said to Xi Ning, who was holding the shadow.
"Save him!" Xi Ning's eyes were red. There was still blood at the corner of his mouth. The shadow in her arms, her chest was blood-red, and blood kept gushing out.
The weak voice of the shadow of the "master" sounded: "No, Ning. I'm not saved. In the future, I... can't protect you anymore. ”
"Shadow, I'll save you, don't talk nonsense, you'll be fine." Xi Ning covered the wound on his chest with one hand, trying to stop the blood from flowing out.
"Ning, don't cry!" As the shadow smiled and spoke, the blood from the corners of his mouth flowed more and more, and his hand wanted to hold something. In the end, he hung down weakly, Xi Ning hurriedly clenched his hand, shook his head and said, "Don't!" ”
"I love you!" Shadow spat out three words with his last breath. As soon as his body went soft, his head slid into Xi Ning's arms.
"No!" Xi Ning shook the shadow's body vigorously, and the shadow only swayed back and forth with her strength, and when she didn't open her eyes, the smile on the corner of her mouth was still there, as if she was very satisfied with death.
The black-robed old man shook his head. Step by step, he walked towards Yu Wen.
Miao Ren gradually regained his strength, and his resentful eyes searched for Ling Yuzhen's figure all over the audience. At this time, there was no one there, Ling Yuzhen disappeared without a trace before the old man came. Along with the disappearance are the masked man and the man in black who saved them.
"Yu Wen" The cold voice of the black-robed old man seemed to come from hell, which made Yu Wen's whole body tremble.
"Mo Yan, what you want is ruined by me, haha......" Yu Wen laughed, which later turned into a wild laugh, and finally exploded and died.
"This dead hair method is also cheap for you!" The black-robed old man stepped forward, the fingers of his right hand formed a claw-like shape, and he pulled out her remaining one soul and three spirits from the top of his heart, put it into a jade box, and collected the one soul and three souls of Wen and Yu Wu in the same way.
"Xiao Xi, the shadow is gone!" Miao Ren hugged Xi Ning's trembling shoulders and said, "You still have me, and Brother Sen." Brother Mori is not in good shape! ”
"Yi'er!" Xi Ning looked back with teary eyes, and Ethan in Weilong's arms was lifeless, hanging on Weilong's arms like that, his hands hanging to the side.
Xi Ning stood up, and Miao Ren helped her to walk to Wei Long's side and took Ethan in his arms.
At this time, the black-robed old man also walked over, put his hand on Ethan's wrist, and said, "Follow the old man back to the clan first, and the Qianyan Mountain in the clan can restore his vitality." ”
Xi Ning nodded and said, "Weilong, with a shadow on his back, let's go with him." ”
The black-robed old man collected the jade boxes tied with red thread on the peach tree one by one, and then poured the blood inside into a covered jade cup, and then led a few people to the depths of the peach blossoms.
After walking for a long time, he came to a natural pit, and the old man in the black robe jumped down first. Xi Ning looked down at the bottomless pit, hesitated, and jumped along.
The temperature here was very high, and a sultry breath greeted him, and Xi Ning hugged the man in his arms tightly. His body was extremely cold, and he seemed to be holding a large block of ice in this hot cave.
"Later, you followed the elder to unravel the Soul Separation Gu in your body, and the pill that the old man gave you was only temporarily suppressed." The black-robed old man came to Miao Ren's side and finished speaking, and then said to Xi Ning: "Today, I sensed the spirit ceremony and rushed there, but who knew that it was still a step too late. I'm sorry about your husband. There is a thousand-year-old ice coffin in the clan, and if you put people in it, if you have a chance in the future, you may be able to return your soul. ”
Xi Ning seemed to see the light at this moment, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"However, Yi'er is more serious than you think, and you need your help to save him."
"Okay, go now!" Xi Ning hurriedly said.
"Don't worry, although the Soul Separation Gu has not had an effect on you, it has also hindered your mobility, and you need to cultivate for a few days. Moreover, you are pregnant, and your spiritual power has declined. The black-robed old man said. (To be continued)
