The condensation lamp, carved in the shape of lotus petals, shimmered faintly in the room, illuminating the mysterious man's face. Jiang Chetong's pale face flickered in the light, and he couldn't say a word when he looked at it.

Xie Qian gritted his teeth hatefully: "What are you going to do?" ”

"My request is simple for you." The mysterious man said this, throwing over a dagger with a red body, "As long as you stab Mu Chengye with this, Jiang Chetong's spirit and spirit lamp will be given to you." ”

The dagger fell at Xie Qian's feet, she didn't pick it up, but said with a cold face: "You spent so much effort just to let me stab Demon Venerable?" ”

"Believe it or not." The mysterious man said and carefully collected Jiang Chetong's spirit into a blood bead, and said slowly, "But Jiang Chetong and Yun Qihe's spirit shouldn't be able to withstand the toss." ”

She knew what was at stake, but no matter how she chose, it wasn't what she wanted.

Xie Qian clenched the spirit hairpin in his hand, and was about to attack it, when he saw the mysterious man set up an enchantment defense in front of him, and sneered: "You are undoubtedly the most stupid thing to do if you attack now." First, you are not as strong as me. Second, Jiang Chetong's spirit will be damaged on the spot. ”

As he spoke, his eyes looked at the red dagger: "You stabbed the Demon Venerable, but it only caused him a slight injury, but it can save two people." ”

"Why do you do that?" Xie Qian still didn't understand.

The mysterious man sneered, and continued: "I'm not interested in the position of the Demon Venerable, and I don't want to have the strongest power, I just want him to taste the feeling of being betrayed by his beloved." ”

Sounds a little perverted.

Xie Qian raised his eyes and looked at the mysterious man.

After a while, she picked up the dagger as if she had made up her mind, looked at the face reflected above, and said lightly: "I promise you." ”

The mysterious man seemed to have expected that Xie Qian would agree, and the smile on the corner of his mouth rippled. He put away Jiang Chetong's spirit, looked at Xie Qian with a playful smile, and spit out four words: "Happy cooperation." ”

"I can't talk about cooperation with you." Xie Qian put the dagger into his waist with a cold face, "I hope you can keep your promise." After saying that, without waiting for the mysterious man to say anything, he walked straight out of the house.

At this moment, the sky was already slightly white, and it was another sleepless night. The stars set early, leaving only the moon hanging quietly alone in a corner.

She didn't even know how she had returned to the Immortal Mountain Dormitory, and when she came back to her senses, the sun rose.

Xie Qian said that he was sick and did not go out despite the dark circles under his eyes, and was speculated by a group of disciples whether he was thinking about how to harm Yun Qihe before he woke up.

She had long been accustomed to the messy rumors, so she didn't bother to explain.

When the disciples of Cangming Mountain went to the cultivation ground to train, the entire dormitory hall was empty. She relaxed a little, went to the courtyard behind the living room, and sat at the stone table in a daze.

She thought about how to tell Mu Chengye the news unconsciously and act in a play. The dagger changed from her left hand to her right hand, and from dawn to dark, the disciples around her came and went several times to report something, but they did not recall her train of thought.

When he raised his eyes, the entire courtyard darkened, and the disciples guarding the dormitory also left.

She was so tired that she was about to go back to rest when a dark shadow flashed, and then the mysterious man reappeared. Xie Qian realized that it was not that he couldn't see the person's face clearly, but because he used a special spell, his whole face was hidden in the dark.

His eyes were fierce and cold, revealing a hint of mockery.

"It's already this time, aren't you ready to call the Demon Venerable out?" He asked, and slowly came to Xie Qian's side.

She immediately stood up and squinted her eyes in alarm: "I'm just thinking about how to do it without knowing it." ”

"Then you'll have to think about it faster." The mysterious man said coldly, "My patience is limited, I only have one day, and tomorrow I will throw Jiang Chetong's spirit into Zhuxiantai." ”

Xie Qian clenched the dagger in his hand: "If you watch here, aren't you afraid that the Demon Venerable will feel your breath?" ”

"Don't try to find a puppet, I can tell." The mysterious man stretched out a finger and shook it, "I am one of the Seven Kings, and my breath will not be easily detected." ”

It turns out that he just calculated this to be the case.

Xie Qian frowned: "How can I trust you?" ”

"In this way, return the condensation lamp first, which can be regarded as a sign of my sincerity." The mysterious man said this, and directly placed the condensation lamp on the table.

There was a faint glow in the lamp, illuminating Xie Qian's eyes. She closed her eyes and said nothing.

The mysterious man seemed impatient with something, and suddenly leaned in to pull the hairpin from her hair. Before she could react, the pinching maneuvered to flicker.

Then he threw the hairpin to her and said slowly: "If you don't want to call him, I'll help you." It's just that if I don't do it, I'm going to let Jiang Chetong's soul fly away as soon as the time passes. ”

As soon as the words fell, he pinched the trick to hide his body.

After a while, Mu Chengye appeared in the courtyard. He looked at Xie Qian's blank eyes, and couldn't help but worry: "Did something happen?" ”

"That's it, I found the Soul Lamp." Xie Qian's eyes turned to the condensing lamp on the stone table, "Tell you." ”

Mu Chengye was slightly surprised, leaned over and picked up the condensing lamp, and after confirming that it was true, he sighed: "You are so powerful, I don't even have any clues." ”

"It's fine." Xie Qian sighed, and the melancholy on his face was about to overflow. Her hand holding the dagger began to sweat, and the nervousness was written on her face.

Sensing that something was wrong with Xie Qian, Mu Chengye said curiously: "You seem to have something on your mind." ”

"I ......"

Xie Qian opened his mouth, and the pain in his chest came in bursts. Her head was a little dizzy, and consciousness dissipated for a moment.

It was just a moment's effort, and when she came back to her senses, the dagger in her hand had already sunk into Mu Chengye's chest!

She let go of her hand in disbelief, and saw the blood on her hands, and she couldn't help but tremble. She slowly raised her head and met the sad and indignant look in Mu Chengye's eyes.

Xie Qian panicked and took a step back, almost unable to stand on his feet. She took several deep breaths to ease her emotions a little before she spoke, "What's going on?" ”

"That's what you called me for?" Mu Chengye asked word by word.

Xie Qian didn't have time to answer, a cloud of black gas flashed through the air, and then Jiang Chetong's spirit appeared in front of her. The shackles on his body had been untied, and a piece of paper had fallen from his feet.

The eyes of the two looked at the same time, and when they saw the words on the paper, their faces were gloomy at the same time.

There are only four words on it: "The deal is done." ”

Mu Chengye instantly understood what was coming, glanced at the condensing lamp, turned his head and glanced at Jiang Chetong, and suddenly sneered. The blood on his chest was barely visible on the dark robes, but his cheeks were getting paler.

He stared at Xie Qian's eyes and laughed at himself: "So you decided to stab me like this for the sake of Yun Tian and Jiang Qiu?" ”
