Chapter 30: The Vanishing Blue Butterfly

The one-eyed old witch walked to the blue spiritual fire door, reached out and took out a flame from it, letting the azure spiritual fire beat in his palm, and his body began to be wrapped in a cyclone formed by demonic power. His cyclone was grayish-white, just like the color of his hair, and he turned to Xia Qiu, "Say your name!" ”

Xia Qiu replied solemnly: "Xia Qiu." ”

"Now, Xia Qiu, put your palm on the blue spirit fire in my palm."

Although Xia Qiu didn't know how high the temperature of the blue spirit fire was, he still didn't hesitate to obey the old witch's arrangement and put his palm facing the flame. As she touched the blue flame, she felt a pain coming from the palm of her hand, but the pain was not caused by burning, but more like the feeling of being pricked by a needle, the sharp tip of the needle seemed to drill into the palm of her hand, through her veins to her heart, brain. It seemed to be trying to connect with her nerve center, and it seemed to be looking for resonance with her soul, and there were constant bursts of tingling from the nerve endings, and in an instant, the entire body was pierced by it. Then, as the heart slowly passed back to her palm along the bloodline, the palm became hotter, and the rising force slowly pushed her palm away from the old witch's palm.

In the still beating blue spirit fire, a white sign slowly appeared, which looked like it was made of milky white bones, but it had an ivory luster, and two symbols were engraved on it with a thick black thin seal, one looked like a summer cicada, and the other looked like a maple leaf. The old witch didn't hesitate to pull the spirit card out of the blue spirit fire with his other hand, and then handed it to Xia Qiu.

Then, he turned to Ouyang Xiaoleng again, at this time, there were obvious beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, and it took a lot of demonic power and spiritual power to draw out the spirit card: "Say your name!" ”

"Ouyang Xiaoleng."

"Put your palm on the blue spirit fire in my palm, like Xia Qiu did just now."

The moment Ouyang Xiaoleng came into contact with the old witch under his subordinates, he felt that his demonic power seemed to be burning, he had never seen anyone use demonic power like this, in fact, simply put, the old witch's spiritual power was like fuel, and his demonic power was flame, if he wanted to play a role, he had to keep burning and consuming.

He also felt that his blood and bones were pierced by the blue spirit fire, straight to the heart and brain, and finally found a resonance point there. Then the blue spirit fire returned to his palm the same way, and his spirit card gradually appeared in the blue spirit fire, and the old witch pulled it out of the fire and handed it to him after it was fully formed as before, and his spirit card was engraved with a fox symbol.

The old witch's energy consumption was almost at its limit, and his breathing began to become heavy, even with a slight moan, and it was obvious that this burning was extremely painful for him, but he only breathed a sigh of relief, and began to ask the thousand riders questions again.

"Your name."

"Thousand Riders!"

Qian Qi repeated the same action as Ouyang Xiaoleng and Xia Qiu, when the old witch finally pulled out the spirit card engraved with the dragon-shaped symbol that belonged to him from the blue spirit fire, the old witch's use of spiritual power and demon power was completely overloaded, he couldn't resist the fatigue and took a few steps back, sat down on a chair on the back, gasped heavily, and then pushed the remaining flame in his palm at the blue spirit fire gate, and the flame flew back into the fire gate, reintegrating with the original blue spirit fire in the fire gate.

The old witch gasped heavily, and said, "Okay, you have already got the spirit card!" Let's go outside and see how Hyacinth is doing, I have a bad premonition......"

His expression showed pain, and while he had just used his demonic power and spiritual power to the limit in order to help a few teenagers retrieve the spirit card, his perception had also become extremely sharp. He received a message from Hyacinth, and he exuded a calm and detachment that was different from before, was that a farewell? He even felt the figure of Hyacinth appear in his mind and smiled faintly at him, then gently turned his beautiful face and walked towards the forbidden forest without looking back, no matter how much he shouted in his heart, he could not hold back his steps.

His instincts told him that Hyacinth's life force had died, but he didn't want to accept this fact from the bottom of his heart, and for the first time, he hoped that his hunch was wrong! It must be wrong, he comforted himself, how could that guy leave so easily?!

Bidding farewell to the old witch, the three teenagers immediately returned to the ground on the lift, and when Ouyang Xiaoleng pushed open the door of the Lingyun Palace, he felt that the door was heavier than before, and it was only with the help of a thousand horsemen that he finally pushed it open completely, and it turned out to be the huge body of a spirit guard warrior in front of the door, and it was no longer moving. The air was filled with the smell of sand and blood, and the ground was littered with immobile soul warriors, but Hyacinths were nowhere to be seen.

"Hyacinth!" Xia Qiu shouted loudly.

The three of them searched for his name as they called for it, and for a long time an arm holding the flute stretched out from under the corpse of a spirit warrior, and the hand holding the flute was raised high into the air. Seeing the situation, they hurriedly ran over, and it took a lot of effort for Ouyang Xiaoleng and Qianqi to push aside the behemoth that was pressing on Hyacinth's body.

Hyacinth was badly wounded, and the countless wounds pierced by the stonefall and claw thorns were already blurred with flesh and blood, and he could have hid after they entered the Lingyun Palace, but he fought tenaciously until the last moment, so that they would not be attacked again when they got the spirit card and came out of the Lingyun Palace.

His aura had become quite weak, and the demonic power could not be controlled from his body, and the thousand riders reached out to withdraw the demonic power emitted by Hyacinth as much as possible, and then slowly infused it back into his body. After a while, he gradually regained some consciousness, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he opened his eyes with great difficulty.

"You ...... Have you gotten the spirit card? His voice was weak.

"Well, look!" Xia Qiu brought the spirit card to his eyes.

He tried to keep his eyes open to see what the spirit card looked like, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. There was infinite relief in that smile, he felt that he had never been like this in his life, and he was satisfied from the bottom of his heart, and he no longer wanted more. It turned out that he could have such happiness not because of what he had gained, but because he could do anything to get his friends out of danger and gain something, and he seemed to suddenly understand what the freedom he had been pursuing was.

It's just that the time that belongs to him has come, and his life has come to an end, it seems that the so-called saying that there is no life and death in the Yellow Springs Country is just a rumor, and the only regret is that he looks too embarrassed at this moment and has no consistent beauty. But he didn't know that he was still so beautiful, it was a kind of beauty, and when the bright red blood floated on the blue satin that wrapped his body, his pale skin shone with a warm luster like jade.

"Why don't you leave?! Why not hide?!! ”

Qianqi knew the answer, but he couldn't help but choke up and complain to him. When he found that the speed at which he was pumping demonic power into Hyacinth was nowhere near as fast as the demonic power was dissipating from his body, he felt an uncontrollable tingling sensation in his heart.

Although the relationship with Hyacinth is so short, it is like a partner who has known him for a long time, and the trust that can produce the Demon Alliance is the second time he feels, and in just a few days after leaving Dongyao, he feels that he has experienced more things than before, making him worry about more and more people, and his heart has become more and more heavy and painful.

"This is my decision! When I go, can you please help me hand over this stone and flute to the pothos? Hyacinth slowly spit out these words, then reached into his pocket with his free hand, took out his colored crystal, and handed it to Xia Qiu along with the flute.

"Don't say such things, you can get better after a while, and you will hand it over to her personally when the time comes!" Xia Qiu comforted, and a series of tears flowed down endlessly, like an open river embankment.

"Well, I'm sleepy, let me sleep for a while......" Hyacinth smiled reluctantly, then slowly closed his eyes, his breathing became rapid and heavy at one point, accompanied by a few slight moans, and then slowly began to soothe, slower and lighter, until finally it was so light that he couldn't feel anything.

Until he couldn't hear his own breathing, he felt that his body was no longer as heavy as before, and the pain disappeared without a trace. The whole person returned to a relaxed state, and even the turbid air of the Yellow Spring became so fresh, and his eyes were full of green plants and colorful flowers, which emitted a strange fragrance and light, as if guiding him to spread his wings and fly to his heart's content.

The process was slightly painful, like the darkness and loneliness before breaking out of the cocoon into a butterfly, and when he finally spread his wings, the world expanded and widened. Fly, he said to himself, he heard the song of the pothos, so beautiful, close to his heart, she was calling him. He jumped up and flew higher and higher, but saw his body surrounded by Xia Qiu, Ouyang Xiaoleng and Qianqi underground. Watching others cry for him was a little weird but it made him happy.

"It's silly, don't cry, I've never been happier than I am now, really!"

He shouted to them, but they didn't seem to hear and were indifferent, he saw Ouyang Xiaoleng finally raise his head and look in his direction, he waved his hand to him with all his might, and then followed the sound of the pothos and flew away, flying into a glow and warmth.

When life was exhausted in the Yellow Springs Realm, it was impossible to maintain its form here, and the teenagers watched as Hyacinth's body gradually became transparent, slowly dissipating into the air in a blur. Xia Qiu and Chiki reached out to grab something, but only some golden powder remained in their palms, as if they were the only evidence that Hyacinth ever existed.

Ouyang Xiaoleng looked into the air, and said to Qianqi and Xia Qiu: "Look at it!" ”

Xia Qiu and Qianqi followed the direction pointed by Ouyang Xiaoleng, and really saw Hyacinth from his tear-drenched vision, he waved the peacock blue wings growing behind him, beckoned and smiled at them, and then flew farther and farther.

After Hyacinth disappeared, they silently watched the spot for a while, although the heartache and reluctance were difficult to calm, but they clearly knew that they had to force themselves to leave here at this time, and if they did not do so, they would have failed Hyacinth's affection. They also have to complete his entrustment and hand over his relics to the pothos, and the people in the Demon Realm King City are still looking forward to their return, if they can't get the earth talisman from the Flame Luo Demon King, it will be equivalent to pushing the entire demon world to a desperate situation, and there will be more Lao Yan flying apart, life and death.

Before going to the Yellow Springs Country, they never thought that they would have such a sincere friendship here, but they had to say goodbye to this friend in a hurry, even Ouyang Xiaoleng, who was the best at hiding his feelings, looked so sad at the moment. They silently got up and walked in the direction of the Flame Luo Demon Palace, no one said a word along the way, only the sound of each other's big breaths in the air. Because the tearing pain in their chests made it difficult to breathe, they could only ignore the unpleasant smell of rust in the air in the Yellow Springs Country, and desperately breathe to suppress this heartache, so as to stop the tears from spilling out, and several teenagers seemed to have grown up suddenly.
