Chapter Forty-Eight: The Lord of the Phantom City
Lan Yao and Feng Qing never left the stream, and the sky gradually darkened, almost instantaneously, and the sky was shrouded in darkness.
"Let's go." Lan Yao patted the dust on his body and got up to prepare to go back to the city.
Feng Qing put down the bad things and took the beauty's hand and entered the city with her.
Sure enough, there was still a lot of people in this city during the day, and there was no one left at the moment, and Lan Yao deliberately opened a few doors, and there was no one inside.
"Here's the show." Even though Lan Yao was cold, the eagerness in his eyes was clearly seen by Feng Qing, his Qingqing was really a restless person, fortunately, he liked it.
"Deathβ" The city that had been empty suddenly appeared in the distance, hundreds of monsters, these monsters had ugly faces, their fangs glowing blue, their eyes hollow, and their mouths repeatedly chanting the word 'death'.
Lan Yao and Feng Qing were quickly surrounded, and the two of them gave their backs to each other very tacitly, and each faced the monster in front of them.
I don't know which monster rushed up first, Lan Yao stretched out his hand, used his spiritual power, punched the monster's face, and then kicked back, knocking the monster to the ground. Soon another monster attacked, Feng Qing manipulated the mana, and those monsters were crushed into powder by him before they could get close.
Lan Yao dodged these ugly-looking monsters while heading in the direction where the monster came from, "Feng Qing, help me clear the way." β
"Okay." Feng Qing replied and helped Lan Yao block most of the obstacles.
Lan Yao was powerless at the moment, she could only use her spiritual power to manipulate her bare hands, she jumped forward, stepped on the head of the monster, stepped on them, and where she stepped on, those monsters left deep footprints on their heads one after another.
It's getting closer, it's getting closer, and Lan Yao feels that the truth is about to be revealed.
"Isn't Your Excellency still showing up?" She raised her voice and asked, "Cowering doesn't look like a hegemon should be." Lan Yao sneered and looked into the depths, where the monster had come.
"It's interesting, it's a good way to provoke." Suddenly, a stunning man dressed in lilac appeared in the night sky, his figure was almost integrated with the night, his face was very exquisite, the bright red lips, delicate, his demeanor was exquisite, sword eyebrows and phoenix eyes, the appearance of the empty eyes, it was really the same as the cang face in her dream, no difference between up and down.
"How did you find me?" The man in purple asked with great interest, The Phantom City has existed for tens of millions of years, but no one has ever suspected that this Phantom City is a master.
"Your Excellency has hidden it very well, I have not found it." Lan Yao smiled, still fending off the attack, and explained, "I just tried it casually. β
Lan Yao's eyes flashed with a gleam, she saw these monsters coming from one direction, as if some kind of manipulation, so she tried one or two, and really deceived the lord of this phantom city.
"Very good." The lord of this phantom city, a person has lived for thousands of years, he feels that there is no fun in living, his life is boundless, there is no end, it is rare to meet a smart person, he really likes it.
"Your Excellency, everything in this phantom city is an illusion." It's not a question sentence, but an affirmative sentence, Lan Yao is so sure, "And the death of the Qinglou woman, Furong, I think it has something to do with this taboo." β
"Tell me about it." The man in purple smiled very beautifully, and his appearance was equal to Feng Qing, who was fighting at the moment.
"I heard Feng Qing say that there is a divine object in the world, all living people will die when they enter, and they will die in a dream, and it is difficult for people to perceive, so this hibiscus is a living person, I don't know why she entered this phantom city, she gradually forgot her original identity, passed away in her sleep, but always thought that she was still alive, so she repeated her usual habits."
Lan Yao's clear and cold face, those eyes almost saw through everything: "It's because she thought she hadn't died, so I stopped her out of the door that day, and she died alone in the backyard of the Smoke and Rain Beauty Pavilion, looking shriveled." I'm afraid that this phantom city has set up a ban, and all dead things will turn into their original appearance in the moonlight. Fleur was probably over a hundred years old, so she died in the moonlight, restoring her body to her age, even the old and young of the dead family. And those who had not been exposed to the moonlight and hid in the house turned into transparency, as if they had disappeared, just like me and Feng Qing that night. β
In fact, Lan Yao can explain everything clearly, partly from Feng Qing, and partly from that dream.
"He's such a smart guy, I like it." The Lord of the Phantom City raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and in an instant, those monsters turned into phantoms and ceased to exist.
Lan Yao can finally breathe a sigh of relief, her spiritual power has been consumed a lot, and she has never summoned Leng Hui to herself, leaving the last hole card.
If it is really husband and wife, although Feng Qing is not as uncomfortable as Lan Yao, it is not much better, and he did not invite Po Xi either.
"I have a question." Lan Yao never understood one thing.
"Say." The man in purple looked at Lan Yao as if he was rewarded, and thought with interest about what else Lan Yao didn't understand.
"I had a dream, and if it weren't for the help of the person in my dream, I would have died here." Lan Yao straightened up, his eyes staring at the handsome man in purple, "In my dream, I went back five thousand years ago. I want to ask if the dream is real or false? β
"That's it, hehe. False is true, true is also false, false and true, true and false, girl, do you think it is true or false? "The lord of the Phantom City, he deliberately looked at Lan Yao with a bad taste.
"I thought it was true." Lan Yao felt that everything in the dream was too real, and even the pain of pinching her arm, she still remembered it vividly.
"Okay." The Lord of the Phantom City did not answer Lan Yao's question directly, but said, "You two are here, what is the matter?" β
After all, it had been too long since there had been a living person in this snowy region, and he really found it interesting, and the woman in front of him had also recognized his true body, and he wanted to know why these two people were here.
"Look for the three magic weapons." Lan Yao said loudly, Feng Qing didn't like the purple-clothed man's eyes looking at Lan Yao, as if he regarded Lan Yao as a prey, he swore sovereignty, hugged Lan Demon into his arms, and looked at the man provocatively.
The Lord of the Phantom City didn't care about Feng Qing's actions, he was just a fox fairy, he didn't care about competing with his children for favor, there was nothing he could not get what he wanted.
"Hehe, then it's up to you to take them away." With a wave of his hand, the appearance of the Phantom City changed instantly, and in an instant, the three of them were in a cave.
This cave is very unique, the surrounding wall rocks are made of crystal, and the whole cave is illuminated by the crystal. I saw that in the middle of the cave, there were countless swords, and those swords had different shapes and advantages. In the sword pool, there is a ribbon that is softly wound around each sword, and the ribbon is very beautiful, and the red ribbon is shining with a little silver.
"What is this?" Lan Yao couldn't take his eyes off the ribbon when he saw it, as if he had some kind of heart, the ribbon actually moved, and then returned to the same as before.
"Ancient artifact, ice glass ribbon." The Lord of the Phantom City looked at Lan Yao with a look of your real vision, this ribbon is the most powerful magic weapon in the entire cave.
"Can I take it with me?" Lan Yao didn't believe that the lord of this phantom city was so generous.
"It depends on whether it is willing or not, ancient artifacts have their own temperament." The Lord of the Phantom City said that he himself was a powerful individual, and he never used any magic weapons, so he could naturally give it generously to the beauty.
Lan Yao saw that the Lord of the Phantom City agreed, patted Feng Qing's hand to reassure him, and walked to the edge of the sword pool, she closed her eyes, intending to communicate with her divine sense.
"Who is it?" The artifact's voice was indistinguishable, it heard its name called, it had been asleep for I don't know how many years.
"Would you like to be my magic weapon?" Lan Yao asked.
The artifact looked at Lan Yao, and saw that she was just a mortal of Yuan Ying, and was very disdainful, "You are not qualified enough." β
"Why?" Lan Yao lightly lifted his lips and said sarcastically, "How do you know that I am not qualified, are you born to be a god?" β
"Naturally, I was born to be an immortal magic weapon." The ribbon said ostentatiously, but for some reason, the first time it saw Lan Yao, it had a strange feeling, since its previous owner returned to the mountains and forests, it was abandoned in the sword pool of this phantom city, and it longed to see the light of day again.
"Then don't regret it, if I cultivate to become an immortal, I won't answer you if you come to me at that time. I know that your aura and I are very compatible, otherwise I wouldn't have taken a fancy to you at first sight, and you wouldn't have moved. Lan Yao said half-seductively and half-threateningly, the magic weapon thought for a moment, and then carefully considered Lan Yao in front of her, and saw that she was only a teenager, and she reached Yuanying, which is afraid that she is the best among the entire mortals, and in time, her future is really immeasurable.
"Okay, I'm willing to follow you." The magic weapon finally responded, Lan Yao closed her eyes and felt the silk slip from the sword pool, wrapping her body, the comfortable touch, making Lan Yao feel comfortable for a while, and after a while, the ribbon fell on her waist and tied it into a belt, making her waist look a little smaller, faintly grasping.
Lan Yao opened her eyes, she was very happy, she finally had her own magic weapon, and it was a waste of energy to use her bare hands in normal times.
"It's not quite yours yet, and when you can really handle it, your name will appear on it." The Lord of the Phantom City didn't know about Lan Yao's conversation with the ribbon, but he knew that Lan Yao's current strength really couldn't play the full role of the ice glass ribbon.
"It doesn't matter." She was confident that one day, she would be able to completely release it and let its strength be brought into full play, "What about the second magic weapon?" β
"The second magic weapon is an ordinary ring that can hide thousands of things." The Lord of the Phantom City unreservedly gave it all out, "I'll give it to you." β
The master of the phantom city lightly covered his palm, and a pink ring lay in his palm, which was very delicate and delicate, and it was really suitable for Lan Yao to wear. Lan Yao hurriedly took the ring, she was suffering from the lack of a stored object, this thing should be a coincidence.
"And what about the third one?" Lan also had to be overjoyed, the lord of this phantom city was too generous.
"The thirdβ" The Lord of the Phantom City finally smiled, his purple clothes fluttering in the wind, and his eyes shining brightly like never before.
Lan Yao and Feng Qing suddenly had an ominous premonition.
