All Chapters_Chapter 18: The Return of the Holy Maiden
Surrounded by a group of people, Xiao Kong slowly walked into the gate of the Shadow Killing Gate.
The moment she saw the cloud envoy, another voice in her heart sounded again.
"Stinky girl, once you get in, you really can't regret it, although I don't want to be kicked out of your body, but, I don't want to die in this place and become a pill to improve people's strength, if you change your mind and leave here now, with my skills, we can still do it."
For the first time in so many years, Xiao Kong heard timidity in the monster's voice, but now she can't turn back.
"Don't be afraid, this is the place where the beginning and the place of the end, if we will die, we will also die together."
In fact, Xiao Kong is not sure about driving the monster out of his body, and the worst result is that the two of them die together.
I don't know when it started, Xiaokong is no longer so repulsive to the other person in his body, not only that, but this other self has not done anything out of the ordinary for a long time.
"Xiaokong, don't be amorous, okay, who wants to die with you? I'm going to take your body, and then I'm free to do whatever I want, so I don't want to die. ”
"Then, come on, see in the end, is it only me left in the body, or is there only you left, or ......"
Just as Sora and the other were communicating in their minds, the sound of hurried footsteps came from far and near, pulling the distracted Sora back to reality.
It was a group of women in white robes, dressed completely different from the guards at the door, and a palm-sized red lotus was embroidered on their chests with red silk thread.
Sora knew that they were the priestesses of the Shadow Killing Gate.
"Welcome home."
A priestess who looked to be the oldest had not yet walked up to Xiao Kong, and she knelt on the ground with a pop, and the priestesses behind her also knelt down.
The cloud envoy on the side, her eyes became even more gloomy, she hugged her arm and took a step back.
The black-clothed guards who surrounded Xiaokong also retreated to the back one after another.
In the huge square, the white clothes of the priestesses were blown by the cold wind, which formed a sharp contrast with the black buildings around them.
"I only said that my name is Xue Ruo, don't you all need to check it? So sure, you kneeling are saints? ”
Xiao Kong tilted his head and looked at these people in front of him.
She will never forget that it was these women, when she was so young, who recited those incantations around her every day that she did not understand, so that a second personality was formed in her body.
But for some reason, when she saw these women again, she didn't hate them in her heart.
"No need to test, no matter how a person's appearance changes, his eyes will not change, you are the saint Xue Ruo of our shadow killing door, you are finally, back."
Indeed, Xiaokong's eyes are really easy to recognize, clear and bright, no matter who you are, you will unconsciously think of the stars in the sky when you see these eyes.
Whether she was three years old or now, her eyes have never changed.
"Hehe, yes, I'm finally back."
Smiling softly, Koku took a step and walked up the high black steps on his own.
The priestess in white also rose from the ground and slowly followed behind her.
When Sora walked past the cloud envoy, she thought about it and stopped.
"I remember you, you're Ah Yun, it's been a long time."
Just said a word, and Xiaokong continued to walk forward, without stopping any longer.
The cloud envoy was stunned in place, and all that echoed in his mind was the sentence that Xiao Kong had just said.
I remember you, you are Ah Yun.
It's been more than ten years, and no one has ever called her Ah Yun, the little girl who smiled at her, the osmanthus cake in the little girl's hand, the master's whip, and the pink cherry blossom petals in the sky......
All of the uncontrollable brains appeared in the cloud envoy's mind.
She suddenly felt very cold, and when she looked up, the clouds in the sky had been blown by the cold wind, as if it was going to snow, but not like it was going to snow.
It wasn't until the Cloud Envoy's men walked up to her side that she came out of the memories of the past.
"Boss? You don't have a good face, you, it's okay. ”
"It's okay, go back to your post, remember, strengthen your defenses, and also, you must not let the Thunder Envoy get involved, keep an eye on his people at all times."
"Yes."
"It's going to change, huh!"
Finally, with a cold snort, the cloud envoy also followed the direction of Xiaokong's group just now and walked towards the main hall of the Shadow Killing Gate.
At this time, Xiaokong had also come to the main hall.
In fact, a few minutes ago, the hall was empty, but as soon as the news of the Holy Maiden's return spread, the hall was already overcrowded.
However, although there are many people, they are silent.
Whether it was the master who taught the killer, or the well-trained killer who was masked, or the four protectors under the door master's seat, everyone silently looked at Xiao Kong, who walked in step by step, and in addition to curiosity, there was more fear in their eyes.
However, the most unexpected is the Shadow Messenger, Ray.
He thought it was the saintess brought back by Alain, but he never thought that the saintess came back by herself.
So where did Alain go, and did he die in the desert?
Or is there something else going on?
However, now is not the time to delve into these things.
Xiaokong walked and observed around, this place has basically not changed much, the only difference is that compared with more than ten years ago, there is one less person in the main hall, that is, the Shadow Killing Sect Master who always wears a mask and wears a black dress.
Next to the obsidian chair that shimmered black, there stood only a girl in a white dress fluttering like a fairy.
"Yunruo."
Without thinking, Sora blurted out the name.
When she was a child and was 'educated' by those priestesses, she always had a little girl by her side, which was her alternative, and once she had any accidents in the process of being transformed, she would be replaced by Yun Ruo.
It is because of such a relationship that the names given to them by the owner of the door are so similar.
"Xue Ruo, you're back."
Yun Ruo walked down quickly and came to Xiaokong's side, she was smiling at Xiaokong, and there was a trace of bitterness in her smile.
It was very uncomfortable to look at the little hollow.
Xiaokong remembered Yun Ruo's attitude towards him at that time, Yun Ruo wished that he had died earlier, and then she would replace him.
Now that so many years have passed, her attitude has changed?
If you think about it, it's no wonder that it changes, what is the duty of the saint? It's going to die, in the door master, the holy maiden is a medicine, but in the eyes of the other people in the shadow killing gate, the holy maiden is used to sacrifice to the gods.
No matter what you use it for, the end result is death.
Presumably Yun Ruo has grown up now and understands that the saint is not so easy to be, she should also be glad that it was not she who was chosen as the saint, but someone else.
"Ah, it's back."
didn't want to say anything to Yun Ruo anymore, Xiao Kong answered, pushed Yun Ruo's hand away, and walked to the black throne very consciously.
Touching the cold obsidian, he was silent for a moment, then took off the felt hat on his head and sat on it.
Although he has been away from this place for more than ten years, the research on the Shadow Killing Gate has never stopped.
For hundreds of years, in the Shadow Killing Gate, the status of an adult saint is even higher than that of the door master.
It's just that the ridiculous thing is that no matter how high the status is, no matter how respected, you still have to sacrifice your life to honor the god, of course, this god is also the door master.
This is also explained, the master of the door improves his skills by taking the magic medicine practiced by the holy woman, then the shadow killing door will kill the Quartet without any scruples.
Therefore, in the eyes of the Shadow Killing Sect, this is no different from the priest gods.
After Xiao Kongduan sat down, the people of His Highness, as if they saw a god, knelt on the ground in unison.
Xiao Kong hasn't changed into the saint's outfit yet, just a leather jacket, and there are even some stains on her face.
However, those who bowed down still saw the light in her eyes.
The light seemed to illuminate the gloomy hall.
The Shadow Killing Gate, which has been silent for nearly a hundred years, will be glorious again and dominate the interior of Selangor, just around the corner.
