Chapter 35: "The Roots"
Li Xiuyan's gaze stared at a certain place in the sea of sand, where the sand was extremely wet, and there were many circular holes on the surface, which seemed to be very hidden, but in Li Xiuyan's eyes, it was particularly abrupt.
Dugu's father and son hid under the wet sand, and the round holes were used by them for breathing.
"Dad, what should I do?" Dugu Ji was protected by the water curtain exerted by Dugu Fang, and looked at Dugu Fang with the same pale face with a frightened face.
If there was no water curtain to support, Dugu's father and son would inevitably be locked in the yellow sand like those nine people.
"Don't panic. Dugu Fang took a deep breath, "He can't find us, let's just wait and see." ”
Until now, he didn't know that the remaining nine people had all been killed, and he still hoped that they would be able to defeat Li Xiuyan......
"You like to hide inside, don't come out!"
Li Xiuyan snorted coldly in his heart, and the Li Tian Sword in his hand pointed sharply, and the sword body immediately extended out, but just as the tip of the sword was about to pierce into the sand, his body suddenly shook violently, and the sword body that was more than ten meters long shattered violently, turning into small black points of light in the sky, slowly drifting away.
At the same time, the sea of sand under his feet was like a strange long sword body, turning into dark yellow points of light, and disappeared with the wind.
The medicinal effect of the Storm Soul Pill is gone......
"What's going on?" asked Shen Xuanbing with a stunned expression.
Li Xiuyan's legs were weak, and he almost fell down with Shen Xuanbing.
"It's okay, something is wrong. Li Xiuyan smiled and comforted, and at the same time asked the soul in his heart, "What is the situation, why did the effect of the medicine disappear?!"
The soul said angrily: "It's not that you are spendthrift yourself. ”
Li Xiuyan was stunned when he heard this, "What else do you say?"
"Nonsense, could it be that you haven't taken this elixir in your previous life?"
"Nope. "Li Xiuyan's soul power cultivation in his previous life was all due to his hard work little by little, and he had never taken this kind of elixir that could improve his soul power in a short period of time, so he didn't know much about the medicinal properties of this elixir, otherwise he wouldn't have squandered it as the soul said.
The sea of sand disappeared, and the figure of Dugu's father and son was also revealed.
At this moment, Li Xiuyan has no soul power in his body, not to mention Dugu Fang, even Dugu Ji, who was scared to pee his pants, he is not an opponent.
But Li Xiuyan didn't show it, he didn't retreat but advanced, carrying Shen Xuanbing on his back and approaching Dugu's father and son step by step.
The faces of both father and son were full of horror at the moment, especially when they saw the corpses of those henchmen.
Dugu's mind was in turmoil, and his soul power was difficult to maintain, which made the talisman water curtain completely collapse.
"Xuan, Xuan Bing, read on the past relationship between you and me, help me ask for a favor with you, a friend, let us go, what do you want, as long as I can do it alone, I ......"
"Shut up for me!" Li Xiuyan snorted coldly, interrupting Dugu's begging for mercy.
Dugu was stunned, in Li Xiuyan's eyes, he seemed to see his own death, and his old face was suddenly bloodless.
Dugu Ji was so frightened that he couldn't say a word, and always hid behind Dugu Fang, and his previous arrogance was long gone.
"Uncle Dugu. Shen Xuanbing looked sad and asked Dugu Fang, "Why is this?
Dugu shook his head, staring at Shen Xuanbing with some trepidation, "No, never." ”
"Then why are you doing this?!" Shen Xuanbing hissed.
Dugu's eyes flickered, hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "If you want to blame, you can only blame your Shen family for offending people who shouldn't be offended." ”
"People who shouldn't be offended......" Shen Xuanbing looked dazed, their Shen family has always treated people with kindness, and they have never offended anyone, who is the person who shouldn't be offended in Dugu's mouth?
Don't......
Shen Xuanbing suddenly thought of something and asked Dugu Fang, "Is it the Marquis of the Northern Underworld?"
Dugu Fang sighed and nodded slowly.
Shen Xuanbing heard that he was struck by lightning, it turned out that the Shen family had fallen to the point where it is now because of his own ......
"What's going on?" Li Xiuyan felt that Shen Xuanbing's state was very wrong.
Shen Xuanbing only shook his head, but did not speak.
Looking at her state, Li Xiuyan knew in his heart that no matter how much he asked, he couldn't ask why, turned his head to look at Dugu's father and son, and said coldly: "Thinking of the past relationship between you and the Shen family, I will spare your life today, I hope you will do it yourself." ”
After speaking, he quickly left with Shen Xuanbing.
It wasn't until Li Xiuyan and Shen Xuanbing walked away that Dugu's father and son breathed a long sigh of relief, and then their legs weakened and they fell to the ground.
The faces of the two of them showed a miserable look of the rest of their lives after the catastrophe.
After escaping from Dugu Mansion, Li Xiuyan did not dare to delay for a moment, and escaped from Dongcheng all the way non-stop, making sure that no one was following him before daring to return to Xicheng.
When he returned home, it was already dark, Li Xiuyan took Shen Xuanbing to his room, helped her sit down, and carefully checked it to make sure that she was not injured, and then began to work on her injuries.
When all the tosses are neat, the sky is completely bright.
Since Shen Xuanbing came back, she sat there silently, Li Xiuyan didn't rush to ask, but sat quietly beside her.
It wasn't until a rooster crowed outside the house that Shen Xuanbing slowly came back to his senses, looking at Li Xiuyan, who was already drowsy on the side, and his heart suddenly had mixed feelings.
She stretched out her hand, and wanted to help Li Xiuyan go to bed to rest, but suddenly thought of her legs, and her two little hands froze in the air......
Li Xiuyan felt something shake in front of him, opened his eyes suddenly, and looked at Shen Xuanbing stretching out his hand towards him, and couldn't help but joke, "What, you want to pounce on me while I'm asleep?"
Shen Xuanbing's face flushed, and she hurriedly put her hand down.
Li Xiuyan's original intention was to make a joke and make her feel more relaxed, but looking at her appearance, let alone a joke, even if she danced for him, she might not be happy.
Shen Xuanbing saw the worry in Li Xiuyan's eyes, let out a long sigh, and said slowly: "A month ago, the Marquis of the Northern Underworld invited my father to the City Lord's Mansion, thinking that it was just a routine matter to discuss the military expenses of the Northern Underworld Army, but he didn't want him to propose to my father and let me marry his son. ”
"Your dad didn't agree. ”
"Yes. Shen Xuanbing said: "The Marquis of the North Hades has only one son, who is the concubine of the princess today, but unfortunately the princess can't have children, and the Marquis of the North Hades wants to secretly take a concubine for his son in order to continue the incense of their family." ”
"This kind of thing, isn't it okay to just find a woman?" Li Xiuyan was puzzled, could it be that Shen Xuanbing had something unique about it, so the Marquis of the Northern Underworld would hang himself on this tree?
Shen Xuanbing smiled bitterly, "Blame my martial soul." Hades Sovereign's martial soul is a red flame and flame, and due to improper cultivation, his internal organs and meridians are damaged, leaving him with an illness that cannot be healed, unless he can find a person with a water element or an ice element...... to be healed. ”
