Volume 1 The Land of Ashes Chapter 47 The Third Choice
Chu Qingxiao turned his back, seemingly unwilling to say more to Chu Zhaozhao.
"Miss Chu, if I were you, I wouldn't live up to his kindness." Zhu Yuan's voice sounded on the side.
Chu Zhaozhao looked back at him, only to see that Lord Wuzhu had a victorious smile on his face, he bowed slightly, and stretched out his finger to the exit ahead.
Chu Zhaozhao still wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know how to speak.
She knew that compared to everything that Wuling City had suffered.
Any verbal comfort pales.
She took a deep breath and suppressed the emotions that were surging in her heart at this moment.
She finally took a deep look at Chu Qingxiao's back, and finally put away her mind to say anything more.
As if she had been drained of her strength, she lowered her head and slowly walked towards the door to the real world not far away.
That's not really a bad thing for her.
She was originally an ordinary outer disciple of Tianhang Mountain.
In that place, which is known as the head of the Great Yu Sword Sect, there are too many extremely talented demons.
Except for a bit of pose, there's nothing special about her.
In fact, even the current errand of coming to Wuling City to collect the corpse of the deceased was bought by her from others at a great price.
It's just because she found out that there is an old man in this Wuling City.
If you can find their corpses, you will please the little uncle.
Uncle Xiao said that she, a disciple of the outer gate, would be able to enter the inner gate and have the opportunity to go to the Yaoguang Sword Pool.
This is something that her family, who has fallen to the point of guarding the home, is looking forward to.
And now, not only has she found Uncle Xiao's old man, she knows everything that happened in Wuling City, and she can even bring back important information such as the revival of Candle Yin, which is reused by the master, which is almost ironclad.
For Chu Zhaozhao, who is bent on seeking a future, this trip is already worth it.
But she ......
I don't feel happy at the moment.
The exit is not far, but only a few feet away.
But she walked very hard, and every step she took seemed to use all her strength.
Her gaze swept over the people around her, and she saw Liu Pei holding Butcher Liu, father and son with a bright but stiff smile on their faces.
She also saw Mr. Luo, standing among the children with a complicated face.
She also saw Chu Yueshan and Sun Kuan, they obviously couldn't fully accept the facts in front of them, and some of them sat in place.
She didn't have much in touch with them, but she had more or less accepted their kindness.
When she stepped out of that door, they and she would never see each other again in their lives.
She will welcome a bright future, and they will embrace the false world and die in the chaos.
Thinking of this, Chu Zhaozhao was a little sad, her eyes were red, she didn't dare to look at them again, and walked to the exit to the present world with her head down.
β¦β¦
"I've fulfilled your request, and now it's time for you to fulfill your promise." Zhu Yuan looked at Chu Zhaozhao who walked to the exit, and said to Chu Qingxiao with a smile.
As he said this, a hand stretched out, about to go to Chu Qingxiao's chest.
But as soon as his hand was stretched out, the red aura around him suddenly surged, wrapping his arm, making it difficult for him to step forward again.
"You!" Zhu Yuan's brows furrowed, and he looked at Chu Qingxiao's gaze.
"Lord Zhu, you have waited for twelve years, why rush this time?" Chu Qingxiao looked at the other party calmly and said so.
When Zhu Yuan heard this, his brows furrowed a little deeper, but he still had patience.
"What, is there anything you don't like?" He asked.
"It's not dissatisfied, it's just a little confused." Chu Qingxiao said.
"What doubts?"
Chu Qingxiao raised his head and glanced at the huge black dragon head above the underground palace, and the black dragon was also staring down at him.
The other party's eyes flashed with scarlet light, and he seemed to be impatient to get what was in Chu Qingxiao's body.
Chu Qingxiao stretched out his hand and pointed to the head of the black dragon and asked, "That guy is your true god of candle yin?" β
Zhu Yuan was a little displeased, and Chu Qingxiao's words were quite disrespectful in his opinion.
But he still answered truthfully: "Eternal Night is the supreme true god, it has thousands of incarnations, and the appearance of the candle dragon is only one of them. β
Chu Qingxiao seemed a little surprised: "Then apart from this candle dragon appearance, what else can he become?" β
"Monkeys? Tiger? Or people? β
The more he talked, the more energetic he became, as if he had discovered a topic that interested him very much, and even approached Zhu Yuan and asked in a low voice.
"Lord Wu Zhu, do you say that it is possible, in fact, the true god of the eternal night can also turn into a mouse or a fly."
Zhu Yuan didn't have much patience, but Chu Qingxiao's words that obviously ridiculed him were exhausted.
The green tendons on his forehead burst out, and there seemed to be flames in his eyes: "Chu Qingxiao!" What more do you want?! β
"I don't have that much patience to play with you, if you do this again, I have a way to make you regret your frivolity at the moment!"
As he spoke, a black qi gushed out from his body, heading towards the place where the souls of the people of Wuling were standing.
Among those Wuling people, there were many people who had been completely controlled by the candle yin, and they didn't care about the rolling killing machine wrapped in the black air, but walked forward numbly, with a pious look on their faces, as if they were ready to dedicate themselves to the gods in his heart.
Chu Qingxiao's face changed slightly, and he said: "Lord Wu Zhu, don't be so angry, I just want to feel more about what it feels like to be alive." β
"I have one last question, if Lord Wuzhu is willing to solve my doubts, I will immediately donate the Candle Yin Divine Blood in my body."
β¦β¦
Chu Zhaozhao stood in front of the exit.
The decision is not in my hands......
Chu Qingxiao has already made a choice, and I can't interfere with him anymore.
She comforted herself in her heart, and one foot stretched out and stepped out of the exit.
What can I do?
I only have three realms of cultivation, I can't beat those candles, I've done everything I can.
She thought as she lifted her other foot slowly.
Hum!
Who did he think he was!
I can't face the reality, and I still want to comfort my little uncle.
Uncle Xiao, she ......
Wait a minute!
Thinking about this, Chu Zhaozhao's raised hind feet suddenly stagnated.
Her face changed suddenly.
She never talked to Chu Qingxiao about the recent situation of the little uncle, let alone mentioned that the little uncle was trapped by the nightmare of Wuling City.
How did he know?
No......
He didn't know.
He's reminding me of something.
Chu Zhaozhao realized that it was strange, and she almost subconsciously wanted to look back, but she thought that once she turned back at this time, with Zhu Yuan's insidiousness, she couldn't tell if she would see the clue.
Her body suddenly tensed a little, and she began to try to recall every word Chu Qingxiao said in the end.
Open that door......
Don't close it......
Chu Zhaozhao's heart was shocked, and he looked at the exit to the present world in front of him.
Chu Zhaozhao, who realized this, suddenly felt that his right arm was a little hot.
She raised her hand and looked at it intently, only to see a faint red aura lingering on her armβit was the divine power left by the old Taoist priest in Wuling City.
Chu Zhaozhao suddenly remembered that at the last moment, Chu Qingxiao had patted her on the shoulder.
That's when he delivered it!
Chu Zhaozhao looked at her palm, and then at the exit of the black aura lingering in front of her, her heart was enlightened.
She didn't think much of it, and then she raised her head and pressed heavily on the edge of the black gas that lingered around the exit.
As soon as the red aura enveloped this divine power touched the black qi, the black qi dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye as if it had met a natural enemy.
At this moment, the red aura spread around the circular exit, wrapping the entire edge of the exit.
But this was only the beginning, the next moment, the red aura surged, and the space where the exit was located was like a mirror, and cracks began to emerge, spreading around the center of the exit.
β¦β¦
"What's the problem?" Zhu Yuan asked with an unkind face, he didn't have much patience left.
Chu Qingxiao didn't seem to see his displeasure, and said to himself: "Lord Wu Zhu said that this Eternal Night Realm is the world of the True God of Candle Yin. β
"In this world, he is omnipotent, so why does Lord Wuzhu have to go to great lengths to toss me for twelve years, and he hasn't taken out this Candle Yin Divine Blood?"
Chu Qingxiao's question made Zhu Yuan's face change suddenly.
"What do you mean?"
"Lord Wu Zhu, I just have a premature guess."
Chu Qingxiao continued: "This realm of eternal night is indeed the world of the true god of candle yin. β
"But he's not omnipotent."
"He is very weak now, so weak that it will take Lord Wu Zhu twelve years to control us mortals, using all kinds of methods to coerce and entic."
"It's so weak that he can't even take out this divine blood in my body, and he still needs Lord Wuzhu to do it for him."
"By the way, does Lord Wuzhu remember?"
"A few days ago, I was chased and killed by the black armor, when Miss Chu was in danger, I was very anxious, and my brain was hot thinking about killing those black armor, when this thought was strong enough in my eyes, those black armor were really dead."
"Lord Zhu Yuan also said that the true god of Candle Yin has thousands of incarnations, and this appearance of the Candle Dragon is only one of his thousands of incarnations."
"Then can I understand it another way?"
"The so-called gods are only appearances, just like our mortal bodies."
"And the blood of God is the soul, the essence of God."
"Then if I have the blood of the Candle Yin God, then am I your Candle Yin True God?"
Chu Qingxiao's words made Zhu Yuan's face change suddenly, he looked at Chu Qingxiao and scolded loudly: "Arrogance! β
"Do you think the power of the true God is so easy to control? You mere mortals spy on your divine power, and your powerful divine power will swallow you in ten breaths! β
"Ten breaths? So long? Chu Qingxiao showed a look of surprise, and he muttered, "That should be enough." β
"You...... What do you mean? Zhu Yuan was completely panicked at that moment, and he asked in a trembling voice.
The corners of Chu Qingxiao's mouth rose at this time, and he finally smiled.
"I just want a ......"
"In addition to the two choices given by Lord Wuzhu, ......"
"The third option." He narrowed his eyes and said faintly.
Click.
As soon as these words fell, a crisp sound suddenly came from behind Zhu Yuan.
He looked back, only to see that the space where Chu Zhaozhao was standing was still full of cracks, and with the light sound of the body, the space there suddenly shattered like a mirror.
And then......
A ruined but real city came into view at this time.
