The man in black smiled: "I didn't expect that friend of yours to be so important to you." It's just that he's so powerful that he can help you get out of the illusion? ”

An Lengyao shook his head and said to him, "No, it's the friendship between me and him that warms me all the time. Since you are good at reading people's hearts, you must have learned about my life through the scenes of the illusion. I was an orphan and was fortunate to be adopted, but unfortunately my adoptive father also passed away. I was originally the most humble existence in the Demon Realm, but although Yue Ming was a demon king, he treated me like a brother and defended me everywhere, which made me have to be moved. When I was in the illusion, I wanted to give up everything and stay here forever, but when I thought of Yue Ming and remembered this friendship, I had to pick myself up and face everything. ”

The man in black was stunned, An Lengyao was right, he had understood everything about him. But An Lengyao didn't know that since he was good at reading people's hearts, he would be able to see many truths that were not understood through people's hearts. When he had already laid down the illusion, he already understood why An Lengyao's adoptive father died, and why An Lengyao had a low status in the Demon Realm...... Even, the illusion he saw was clear to him.

It's just that he doesn't want to tell An Lengyao and Yue Ming all this. Perhaps some of the future outcomes are already predestined, because that was the "cause" that was planted many years ago. But, at least for now, let's give them a good friendship for the time being.

"An Lengyao, since you value this friendship so much, will you be desperate to maintain it?" The man in black asked.

"Yes." An Lengyao said the answer without a trace of hesitation. Of course, he will cherish this friendship that belongs to him only and gives him warmth and hope.

"You answered so thoughtlessly, didn't you ever think that one day, your mind would change?" The man in black asked.

"How could it change?" An Lengyao asked rhetorically, "You have already read my heart, so you naturally understand my thoughts." He really didn't understand why the man in black asked him that.

The man in black looked at his determined expression of friendship, and couldn't help but think back to how he stubbornly believed that sincere friendship could be eternal friendship. But in the end, it all ended with the departure of that person. In fact, many times, he also wanted to create an illusion for himself, and then he indulged in that illusory realm and never came out again.

If he could do it all over again, he would definitely be like An Lengyao now, using all means to maintain friendship and protect friends. It's a pity that he didn't understand the importance of friendship to him back then.

It's ridiculous, it's really ridiculous, he has the ability to read minds, he can read the minds of all creatures in the Six Realms, but at that time, he only didn't read his own minds, and what didn't read was the most important thing for him.

An Lengyao looked at the slightly sad expression and confused and painful eyes of the man in black, and he didn't know what was going on for a while. He asked softly, "What's wrong with you?" Anything comes to mind? ”

The man in black came back to his senses and returned to his previous coldness: "It's nothing, it's not early, you're not in good health, rest early." He said, getting up to get out of here.

The past is like smoke, so why mention it again?

"Wait a minute." An Lengyao opened his mouth to stop him.

"What else?" The man in black turned his head to look at An Lengyao.

"Can I know your name?" An Lengyao asked. He knew that this man in black was dressed in black all day long, and he covered his face with a black veil, and he must not want others to recognize him. But the man in black had helped him so much, he wanted to know his name.

The man in black was stunned, it seemed that no one had asked his name for many years. Ever since he stayed in this cave, year after year, day after day, even if time refused to stop, but after a long time, he could not even feel it leave in a hurry. He sometimes felt as if he was caught in the cracks of time, alone, with only endless emptiness, and even forgot who he was.

But today, this little boy's question made him feel familiar for a long time. Many years ago, that man had asked himself over and over again what his name was.

For a long time, when An Lengyao thought that he would not receive an answer, he heard a deep voice.

"Liangcheng."

After Lin Ye and Yue Ming said goodbye to zero hour, the two traveled all the way west to find Lingzhi. Seeing that it was getting late, I planned to find a place to stay first. But Yue Ming thought of the situation in the demon world and didn't dare to delay any longer, and wanted to get on the road as soon as possible.

"I know you're anxious right now." "I'm familiar with this place, but when it's dark, there are dangers that I can't predict. Dark is not good for us, and you're tired, so you might as well rest for the night. ”

Yue meditated for a while and felt that his words made sense, so he nodded.

Lin Ye wanted to take him to the residence of the prophecy queen Ao Xue to spend the night, but Lin Ye thought about it, Yue Ming's identity is special, after all, he is a person from the demon world, and it is not appropriate for too many people to know, so he lit a bonfire in the woods and will spend the night.

The next morning, the sky was bright, and before the morning fog had lifted, the two boys set out on the journey again.

Seeing that Lin Ye had been silent all the time, Yue Ying couldn't help but want to break this silence, and also wanted to ask him some questions to solve the doubts in his heart.

"Hey, Linye, why did the guy we met yesterday called 'Zero Hour' listen to you so much? If you say a word, he will say no more. Yue Ming tilted his head slightly and said to Linye.

Lin Ye's pace was a little slower, and he asked, "What are you asking for?" Does it have anything to do with your search for Ganoderma lucidum? ”

"Don't get me wrong. I just don't think you're very human, and the last time you helped me, I already thought you were extraordinary. This time in the different dimension, you only appeased the person chasing me with just a few words, and it made me feel that you have an unusual status in the divine realm. Yue Ming explained.

"I ...... It's just a person under the Spirit King, and he doesn't have much power. Linye replied in a low voice.

Yue Ming saw a slight hesitation in his words, and knew in his heart that he was afraid that this person did not want to reveal his identity. However, it's nothing, after all, didn't he himself choose to hide his identity?

"Oh." Yue Ming smiled, "In this way, the people around the Spirit King should not be underestimated. ”

Lin Ye smiled faintly and didn't say anything more.

After that, the two men were silent all the way. After a while, they came to a large clearing, which was full of golden plants. These plants are like the branches of a tree, strange and surrounded by a golden light.

A stuffy feeling came from Yue Ming's chest. In fact, he had felt this way on the road just now, but when he got here, it was even stronger.

"Hmm......" Yue Ming covered his chest and made a slight sound uncomfortably.

Lin Ye took out a lilac bead from his bosom and put it on Yue Ming's hand: "Feng Gang forgot to remind you, because of the growth of Ganoderma lucidum here, the aura is overflowing. You are a person from the demon world, and it is inevitable that you will be uncomfortable. You put away this spirit bead, it can help you resist the aura. ”

"Thank you." Yue Ming took the spirit bead and put it on his body, and it was really much better.

Approaching the place covered with Lingzhi mushrooms, he opened his arms, and countless light filaments composed of light purple emitted from his body. The filaments of light spread out in all directions, gradually covering the top of the Lingzhi.

Yue Ming had never seen such power, but he knew that doing it must have something to do with obtaining Lingzhi.

Those light purple filaments of light fluctuated around for a while, and finally gradually concentrated on a single Lingzhi.

Seeing this, Lin Ye raised his hands up at the same time, and the lingzhi plant floated in the air and flew to Lin Ye's hand.

"Here you go." Lin Ye handed over the Lingzhi to Yue Ming.

Yue Ming took the lingzhi and carefully put it on his body. He looked at Linye, not knowing what to say to thank the man in front of him who had helped him so much. What's more, this person is still from the divine realm.

"No thanks." Lin Ye seemed to see the thoughts in his heart, and then he explained what he had just done, "The Ganoderma lucidum here has its own growth period, if you pick it at will, it will wither and be useless after taking it out." What I did just now was to find the one that was satisfactory during the growth period. ”

"I see." Yue Ming suddenly realized.

"I know you still have something to do. I heard you say last night that your friend is still waiting for you in the cave, and you can walk east from here to that cave. Lin Ye said, "The spirit bead I just gave you can make you don't have to take so many detours when you came, you can directly climb over the mountain here, this bead will resist some spiritual energy for you, so that it won't take long to return to the demon world." ”

Yue Ming nodded and replied, "Linye, the great grace is not grateful." I owe you a favor today, and I will pay it back later. He never let people help him in vain, and he secretly promised in his heart that if one day, when he needed his help at night, he would also go to the soup and do his duty.

Lin Ye bent his lips and said softly, "You go quickly, don't delay any longer." ”

In fact, he understood that he should not have helped this boy because of his feelings. The grievances between the two worlds of gods and demons, he couldn't be clearer. But from the first time he saw this boy, from the boy's body, he saw a person from the demon world who was different from what his father depicted in his father's mouth. He believed that this man was not the same as the cold and murderous demons he had heard. He believed he wouldn't have bad motives.

However, many years later, when Linye remembered the scene again, he could not help but think that if everything was done again, he would not choose to help this man. The world is as black as a crow, the devil is the devil, and it is always indifferent and ruthless. It's a pity that I didn't recognize this when I was young, thinking that this boy was different from those people.

Yue Ming didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurried on the road after saying goodbye to the night.

Luckily, he had the guidance of the night, so it didn't take him much time to return to the cave. An Lengyao was surprised and delighted when he saw him return safely, he didn't expect that he had successfully obtained Ganoderma lucidum in just one day.

"Hades, are you hurt?" An Lengyao asked.

"I'm so good. Fortunately, with the help of capable people, this road is finally thrilling. Yue Ming smiled and said, "By the way, how are you?" ”

"Although it has not fully recovered, it will finally not cause mobility problems or anything. So, we can hit the road with confidence. An Lengyao said, "By the way, what kind of capable person did you just say helped you?" ”

Yue Ming pretended to make a mysterious gesture and said to An Lengyao: "You must not have imagined that it was the person from the Divine Realm who I mentioned to you last time that I helped me expel the Divine Bird. ”

"Is that him?" An Lengyao was also stunned. He couldn't have imagined that a person from the Divine Realm would actually lend a helping hand to Yue Ming.

"Okay, I'll talk to you on my way back. Now, we have to hurry back to the Demon Realm and hand over the Lingzhi to Elder Ye and my mother. Yue Ming also understood that they had been out for so long, Yin Qianluo and Ye Qian must be very worried about the two of them.

At this moment, the man in black came out of the depths of the cave.
