Chapter Twenty-Five: The Heavy Rain Is Coming
"I don't want to. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
The Yin Lord's hand was still raised: "This was originally yours, and you need it now." β
The wind began to become restless again, and gently swirled through the corridors and stairs of the attic of Tsuten, and swirled softly around the two people standing there.
Taking a deep breath, Hanyan tried to calm his mood: "No need, I'm fine now, without it I'm the same master of the Stygian Sea." β
The Yin Lord smiled, stepped forward, and took Han Yan's hand. Like an electric shock, Han Yan subconsciously wanted to pull his hand back, but he didn't know why he didn't succeed, and the dignified master of the Stygian Sea was as weak as an ordinary woman at this time. The Yin Lord took her hand, not cherishing this moment of warmth, but put the heart that was still beating into her hand.
"Take it back," he said, "and we'll meet again later." β
Hearing this, Hanyan chuckled, and the smile on his face was a little more delicate than the bright spring light: "Maybe the next time I see you, it will be another reincarnation." β
"Then see you in the next reincarnation." Closing her hand and seeing her slender fingers wrap the heart tightly, the Yin Lord let go of her hand.
Taking a step back, the Yin Lord bowed slightly: "Offended, but, that's all." With that, he turned and left.
He walked away without looking back, and suddenly Hanyan was stunned for a moment. She opened her mouth, as if to say something, but when she saw the figure of the Yin Lord disappearing into the stairs, she still didn't make any sound after all.
The heart in her hand was beating slowly but forcefully, and Han Yan felt that her palm was hot, so hot that she couldn't help but clench the thing in her hand hard. She breathed hard, but in the cold wind, it was still like she was starved of oxygen, and there was always a feeling that she was about to suffocate. Finally, she couldn't control it, and tears fell like beads with broken threads.
The Yin Lord has left, Huihui has not returned, and she is the only one in the entire Stygian Sea. She stood where she had stood for thousands of years, crying uncontrollably under the cover of the sound of the tide of the Stygian Sea and the wind from above.
After leaving the Styx, the Yin Lord did not go anywhere else, but returned directly to the Yin family in the human realm.
"Why did you come back so soon?" Yin Xiao asked in surprise.
The Yin Lord shrugged: "I'll be back when I'm done." What's going on now? β
Yin Xiao shook his head: "It's not optimistic. We still haven't found any trace of Huo Canglan and his puppet army, and we haven't found any anomalies in the world of Yin Death Qi, so now we can only stand in a stalemate between them in the light and in the dark. β
After a deep sigh, the Yin Lord said, "But if it goes on like this, it's not good for us, right? We don't know what Huo Canglan is doing now, maybe he's planning a new conspiracy right now? β
Yin Xiao nodded: "That's exactly what we're worried about." β
Then he rubbed his eyebrows and said helplessly: "But you also know that Huo Canglan is a person, not to mention his true strength, at least the ability to escape and dodge should be unsurpassed in the Yin and Yang Realm of Life and Death, and now that he deliberately wants to hide, we don't have any good way." β
The Yin Lord also understands this, but now, no matter what, he has to find a way. He thought for a moment and said, "Well, I'll go out and find out the news, maybe I can get something." β
"But now we don't even know where the other party might be, where are you going to find it when you go out so rashly?" Yin Xiao asked.
The Yin Lord said: "I think that since the other party is ready to start a war with us, he will definitely not go too far, not to mention that if he wants to destroy us with the Yin Death Qi, he must be closer to us, so I guess he has not left at all, and has been wandering around us." β
Hearing this, he nodded: "That being said, but our various families attach great importance to the situation around them, and have sent people to search and observe them at the beginning, but there has been no situation, are you sure you can find any new clues?" β
"It's better to look for it than to wait like this."
"It's okay, then let Ruri accompany you." Yin Xiao agreed.
In the vicinity of the Yin Family Manor, the original corpse mountain has now become lush and green, and since the Yin Death Qi and resentment accumulated in the ancient battlefield have been drained, the sunlight and life have returned here. It's like to make up for the so many springs that I missed before, even in the cold winter months, it has always been a refreshing green, and now that spring has really come, the greenery of this place is even more eye-catching.
Standing on the top of the mountain, Huo Liuli asked, "What are we doing here, didn't we say that we were going to find Huo Canglan?" β
"He's your uncle after all, isn't it a little bad for you to kill him in such a hurry?" The Yin Lord chuckled.
Huo Liuli stroked his hair that was blown by the wind, and also smiled: "Actually, I don't want to, but he has done too many evils, it is better to die than to suffer the curse of heaven in the future, it is better to let him die directly in our hands." β
Sighing lightly, the Yin Lord said, "If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have experienced so many things later. β
Glancing at him, Huo Liuli asked, "Why, is it possible that you still think these things are very memorable?" β
"Isn't it?" The Yin Lord laughed.
Huo Liuli shook his head, and the smile on his face narrowed a little: "Regarding such a life and death, I don't even want to remember, let alone experience." β
When these words came out, the Yin Lord's heart trembled. He smiled and said, "Don't think about that, it's all over." β
Then he asked, "Then let's analyze now, where will Huo Canglan and his puppets hide now?" β
"Like you said, it's impossible for him to be too far away from us, but we haven't found any trace of him in these places, so there should be only one possibility," Huo Liuli said, "I think he should have a space similar to the previous Mirror Country, he has hidden all the puppets inside, and we can't find him when he's alone outside." β
After listening to her analysis, the Yin Lord nodded: "Your analysis does make sense, but it is not entirely correct. β
"Oh, so what else do you have in mind?" For the opinion of the Yin Lord, Huo Liuli is still happy to listen.
The Yin Lord pinched his chin and said, "In addition to the situation you mentioned, there is actually another possibility, it is possible that he and his army of puppets have been lurking by our side all along, ready to give us a fatal blow at any time. β
Hearing this, Huo Liuli looked at him in surprise and said, "By our side?" How is this possible, could it be that you mean that he will hide in the manor of the Fire Family or the Yin Family with his army of puppets? β
"Not really, but it's about the same nature." The yin lord stalled his hands.
Glancing at him, Huo Liuli understood what he meant almost instantly, and then continued to ask quietly, "Then why didn't he attack us directly?" β
"Maybe it's because you can't beat us, right?" The Yin Lord smiled, looking at Huo Liuli's disdainful eyes without a little embarrassment on his face, "Okay, I guess it's because I'm afraid of the formation in the manor, right?" β
Although Huo Liuli was beside him, the Yin Lord lowered his head and looked at his feet.
After he finished speaking, Huo Liuli didn't make a sound, and the surroundings suddenly fell into silence. Faced with such a situation, the Yin Lord did not feel embarrassed at all, but still stared at the green grass under his feet, as if his gaze could penetrate the soil and see the inside of this hill.
After a long time, there was a faint sigh from the hills, sounding as if it had come from an ancient time, with some echoes mixed in.
"To be honest, Yin Lord, I really want to kill you, I want to do it very much."
With this voice full of infinite resentment, the Yin Lord and Huo Liuli felt a violent tremor under their feet, as if it had suddenly been an earthquake. However, neither of them panicked, and Qi Qi used the aerial spell, hanging in the air and watching everything below.
It was as if a curtain had been lifted over the mountain, and the original verdant hills had changed their appearance in an instant. All the plants turned yellow at a rate visible to the naked eye, and the trees that had just come to life withered and bent at this moment, as if they had been dead for a long time. Faced with the strange scene in front of them, the Yin Lord and Huo Liuli watched silently, waiting for the appearance of the main master.
As all the messy conditions gradually subsided, countless figures appeared on the hills, and standing at the top of the mountain, that is, the position of the Yin Lord and the Fire Liuli before, it was the Fire Canglan who had not found any trace in the entire Yin and Yang Realm of Life and Death.
At some point, the cloudless weather suddenly became gloomy, as if the second heavy rain of the spring was brewing.
He tilted his head and looked at the two people who were high above, his face expressionless. He asked in a cold voice, "How did you find me?" β
The Yin Lord smiled, and that smile was very gentle in the sunlight: "Actually, you know that the reason why you want to kill me is not only because you always lose to me, but also partly because I know you too well. β
Huo Canglan nodded, there was still no expression on his face: "This is also my problem, I really don't understand, there is not much intersection between us, why do you know my mind well." β
While urgently preparing the spell, the Yin Lord said with a smile, "Do you remember what you were like when we first met? β
Hearing this, he was stunned, and said: "At that time, I was just a wisp of remnant soul......" Before he finished speaking, he had already understood the cause and effect, and his face suddenly turned pale.
The Yin Lord smiled and said, "Actually, that's the reason. While it is effective for you to disguise yourself as that kind in order to gain our trust, you have forgotten the most important thing, which is that you were only a remnant soul after all, and the soul had little defense. β
Huo Canglan's eyes narrowed slightly: "So you spied on my soul and thus knew all my thoughts?" β
The Yin Lord shook his head and said, "That's not it, I'm not so shameless. It's just that your soul power is too strong, and that little remnant soul state obviously can't be perfectly hidden. β
"Now that I know your true strength, then I must pay careful attention to you. Fortunately, through my subsequent contact with you, I learned some of the information you inadvertently leaked, and combined with some of your habits, I was able to get to know you approximately. β
He laughed as he spoke: "Speaking of which, you are too anxious, you only focus on your own plan, and never think about any workarounds in it." So after my deduction, those plans of yours can basically be counted as eight or nine without leaving ten. β
Hearing him say this, Huo Canglan's face returned to calm. He looked at the Yin Lord, glanced at the fire glass beside him again, and said in a deep voice, "Since you know so clearly, what do you mean by telling me these things now?" β
"It's time for this to end." The Yin Lord said lightly.
Hearing this, Huo Lan felt a little funny: "Could it be that you think you can solve me now?" β
The Yin Lord smiled: "Almost, I'm not alone." β
As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Canglan keenly felt that there were many breaths approaching from all directions, gradually forming a trend of encircling this place.
He nodded, "It looks like you're taking a hard time." β
Then he smiled: "But you seem to have forgotten something." β
"What?" The Yin Lord asked with a frown.
Huo Canglan smiled and said: "You have almost rescued all the people in Huojia Village, but it seems that you still forgot some people, right?" β
Under the gloomy sky, the Yin Lord looked at him silently, without a trace of gleam in his eyes. Looking at Huo Canglan's smug face, the Yin Lord suddenly smiled.
"I seem to think a little too highly of you." He whispered.
Hearing this, he had a bad premonition in his heart, and he said coldly: "What do you mean." β
"You have calculated the relationship between me and Huo Xiaolu, and you have calculated that Huo Xiaolu is a very filial person, and he will never abandon his parents at a critical time, and I will definitely care about Huo Xiaolu's behavior, it is indeed a powerful move."
Hearing him say this, Huo Canglan's heart became even more uneasy, and he was silent, waiting for the Yin Lord to continue.
At this time, the Yin Lord smiled.
"But you also overlooked something, ignoring that Huo Xiaolu's filial piety is not just worried about his parents, ignoring the arrangement we made because we wanted to kill you."
Huo Canglan's eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes were gradually glowing red.
It was only at this time that he realized that a prohibition associated with his soul had been destroyed, and this pain made him dizzy in front of his eyes, but he forcibly held back, because the discomfort in his soul was far less than the impact of this incident on his soul. Those four people were rescued!
"You also know that Huo Xiaolu's physique has awakened, why don't you still pay attention to him?"
With the Yin Lord's muttered words, all the people of the Yin Fire and Rain family surrounded and firmly surrounded the hill. Dark clouds were surging in the sky, and there was rumbling thunder, and a heavy rain was about to pour down.
