Volume 1 The Land of the Ashes Chapter 42 The Price of Decision
A warm red aura overflowed from the peach tree in front of him, and they wrapped around Chu Qingxiao's body.
Looking at the posture, it seems that he wants to enter Chu Qingxiao's body.
They were the only remaining divine power of the old Taoist, which was used to seal the Candle Yin Divine Blood in Chu Qingxiao's body.
In the years of being imprisoned by Candle Yin for a long time, no matter what kind of miserable situation he was in, the old Taoist priest tried his best to retain this divine power.
He was waiting for Chu Qingxiao's arrival to give this divine power and seal the candle yin divine blood in the young man's body.
For this moment, he has waited for a long time and experienced a lot.
Whether it is the tempering of the candle yin and the flame, or the erosion of endless evil qi.
With one breath, he carried it all.
He was well prepared for this.
He had already calculated that no matter how loose the seal in Chu Qingxiao's body was, the remaining divine power would be enough to strengthen the seal again.
It stands to reason that everything should fall into place at this point.
But those red breaths with divinity and faintly flowing with golden light only surrounded Chu Qingxiao's body, and they could never pour into his body.
On the contrary, in Chu Qingxiao's body, there were faint bursts of black gas that began to overflow.
And the surge of this breath made the black dragon above the dome more and more excited, and the blood in his eyes was even worse, and those severed black tentacles circled around the enchantment again, and they danced around the enchantment like hungry beasts, waiting for the prey that was about to enter their mouths.
Chu Zhaozhao also noticed something unusual, she first looked at the people who fell to the ground and wailed, and then looked at Chu Qingxiao.
At this moment, the young man's eyes were hollow, and his upper and lower lips trembled, as if he was in a terrible nightmare.
"Chu Qingxiao!? What happened to you? ”
Chu Zhaozhao asked anxiously.
Chu Qingxiao, who was in a strange state, couldn't answer her question, but as more and more black qi overflowed from his body, the red aura with divine power that lingered around him began to be dispelled.
The overflowing black gas surged in the enchantment, and the light wall at the edge of the enchantment began to appear one after another under the erosion of the black gas.
Obviously, as long as this last barrier is broken, a very tragic end awaits them.
She looked down at Wang Che and the others who fell to the ground and wailed, she tried to help them up, but before her hand touched each other, a burning sensation came from her fingertips, and she hurriedly withdrew her hand like an electric shock.
She looked at her reddened hands, her face gloomy.
She had to look at Chu Qingxiao again, she vaguely felt that it seemed that the young man himself was rejecting the red aura gushing out of the peach tree, and it was this action that accelerated the collapse of the enchantment in front of her.
"Are you crazy? What exactly do you want to do? Chu Zhaozhao asked loudly.
"I've heard people say that there are two things in the world that are the most difficult to accept."
And just then, a voice suddenly came from outside the barrier.
Chu Zhaozhao looked at the sound vigilantly, and saw that the candle-yin witch Zhu was walking slowly.
One of his hands twisted Song Guicheng, who was covered in blood, and dragged his body on the ground, leaving a shocking trail of blood behind him.
He was followed by more than a dozen Eternal Night Divine Guards, each of whom was carrying Chu Yueshan and the others in their hands.
Most of the people were covered in injuries and bloodstained all over their bodies, but strangely, Zhu Yuan did not kill them.
"You're playing tricks!?" Chu Zhaozhao looked at Na Zhu Yuan and asked in a cold voice with a calm brow.
Zhu Yuan smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and threw Song Guicheng out and threw him in front of the enchantment, and the divine guards behind him also threw out the people they were holding in their hands, all of them around the enchantment.
Everyone looked embarrassed, and there were many people who struggled to stand up, but before they exerted their strength, there was a sharp pain like a cone, and they quickly fell back to the ground.
"Troublemaker?" Zhu Yuan narrowed his eyes.
"I heard that Miss Chu is a disciple of Tianhang Mountain, and we Candle Yin have been living in the barren black abyss since thousands of years ago."
"But Rao is like this, and I have also heard of the name of Tianhang Mountain."
"In your words, Tianhang Mountain is a famous faction, and as far as I know, such a famous faction usually has the habit of claiming justice, flaunting themselves with hypocritical morality, and at the same time blaming others."
"Miss Chu's way of speaking does have a bit of this flavor."
Chu Zhaozhao frowned, she didn't like Zhu Yuan's pointing attitude and mocking tone.
"Miss Chu, doesn't she really understand why Chu Qingxiao is resisting and sealing the divine blood in her body?" Zhu Yuan's voice sounded again.
When he said this, a strange light flashed in his narrow eyes, and he stared at Chu Zhaozhao rather playfully.
Chu Zhaozhao was stunned for a moment, she seemed to understand something, and looked sideways at Chu Qingxiao at this time.
Only then did she realize that the young man's pupils were not godless, but fearful.
His upper and lower lips were not trembling, but murmuring......
He's saying: That's not true...... Not really...... Not really!
"I've heard people say that there are two things in the world that are the most difficult to accept."
"My own incompetence and the death of my loved ones."
"And sadly, he's embracing both." Zhu Yuan walked to the front of the enchantment and said so in his mouth.
Chu Yueshan on the side stood up with difficulty, he looked at Zhu Yuan and scolded: "Phew! Isn't Lao Tzu still alive and well? Don't fucking want to threaten my son with me! ”
Chu Yueshan said this, turned his head to look at Chu Qingxiao in the enchantment and roared loudly: "Little rabbit cub, like a man, don't be damn indecisive, Lao Tzu has been widowed for your mother for so many years, it's time to meet her!" ”
"Your dad is not afraid!"
After saying that, he glared at Sun Kuan next to him again.
Sun Kuan obviously looked a little bitter, but under Chu Yueshan's gaze that was like a copper bell, he was still reluctant to be a hero after all.
"Great nephew! I'm not in such a hurry to see your mother, but these bastards, even if you are soft-hearted now, they won't let us go, if you can solve them, just let them go! Your uncle's life was given to you!! ”
The two of them spoke arrogantly, but Song Guicheng on the side raised his head with difficulty, looked at the two, smiled bitterly, and did not speak.
Zhu Yuan also didn't care about the clamor of the two, he just looked at Chu Zhaozhao, who was pale in the enchantment, and continued: "Miss Chu is an outsider, you know better than anyone what happened in this Wuling City?" ”
"You condemn us for being vile and cruel, but why don't you tell them the truth?"
Zhu Yuan's questioning made Chu Zhaozhao's face pale, and he didn't know how to respond.
The smile on Zhu Yuan's face was even worse, he stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and the enchantment in front of him, which was already densely cracked, was shattered at this moment.
He stepped in front of Chu Qingxiao, and looked at Chu Qingxiao with a smile: "From the time you came to the underground palace, I had the heart to have a good chat with you, but unfortunately someone didn't want you to know the truth, so they blocked it many times." ”
Zhu Yuan said and glanced back at Song Guicheng on the ground.
Then he looked at Chu Qingxiao again, and glanced at the red aura that permeated his body: "This is the divine power left over from that pseudo-god, I can't break through this divine power barrier in a short period of time and hurt you." ”
"Now as long as you have a thought and accept them, you can seal the Candle Yin Divine Blood in your body, and my God will fall into a deep sleep again, and I will lose the source of my power and quickly dissipate."
"But don't you want to know the truth before making that decision?"
Chu Qingxiao's body was trembling, his empty eyes regained some brilliance, and he looked at the man in front of him: "The truth? ”
"Yes, the truth." Zhu Yuan said with a smile.
"You human beings pay attention to your wishes when you do business, and now you also need to make a very important deal."
"I think you should figure out what you're paying before you make a decision."
"Isn't it?"
Zhu Yuan said, took out something from his arms and handed it over.
Chu Qingxiao looked down, it was a somewhat yellowed book, and he felt that this book was somewhat familiar.
He looked at it again, and saw four big words written on the page—
Codex of the Lonely City.
