It's Lu Qi.

He stood up from the ground with a pale face.

The figure was a little shaky, but he still looked at Xiang An who was standing above the black tide in front of him with burning eyes.

"Huh?" Xiang An turned his head to look at Lu Qi when he heard this.

His eyebrows raised, and the black tide under his feet surged again, pushing his body to Lu Qi.

He squinted, his pupils in the narrow slits of his eyes in a strange and slender oval shape, and the depths of which were scarlet like blood.

Xiang An stared at Lu Qi with a strange look on his face, and his straight gaze seemed to peel off Lu Qi's flesh and blood and reach his soul.

Lu Qi felt goosebumps rise all over his body, an almost instinctive fear, which made his body tremble faintly.

"You care so much about that girl named Zhou Ling'er, I threaten her life, and you are unwilling to sacrifice yourself to me, why did you suddenly change your mind now?"

"What, they are more important in your heart than Zhou Ling'er?" Xiang An asked in a shrill voice.

"She trusts you so much......"

Xiang An said, his body was like a poisonous snake, and under the impetus of the black tide, it gently rotated around Lu Qi.

His voice was shrill like the sound of sharp fingernails cutting across the surface of a polished metal object.

Harsh, sharp.

At the same time, there is a breathtaking magic.

As his words came out, dense sweat stains suddenly appeared on Lu Qi's forehead.

His mind was almost uncontrollably flooded with the scene when Zhou Ling'er died.

The despair in her eyes, the fading breath, and the crimson color that overflowed from under her and spread all began to flash back and forth in Lu Qi's mind very clearly.

All this made Lu Qi almost collapse.

He hunched up, his eyes red, and a low, pained growl came out of his mouth.

And this is exactly the scene Xiang An wants to see.

A smile appeared on his face, and under the support of the black tide, he came to Lu Qi again.

At that moment, the facial features on his face began to surge, his face became delicate, his body became slender, and his outstretched hand turned a little whiter.

Chu Qingxiao and Lu Sandao, who were trapped by the turbid water on their bodies, although they couldn't get out, they also looked up with difficulty and looked at the situation here worriedly.

And when they looked at the scene in front of them, their faces showed horror.

Xiang An's appearance changed, and in the blink of an eye, he changed from a man to a woman.

The woman's appearance was not someone else, it was Zhou Ling'er who died in the hands of Xiang An not long ago.

This doesn't seem to be a simple transfiguration.

Not only does she look exactly the same as Zhou Ling'er.

Even the gestures and the expression on his face when he spoke were the same as Zhou Ling'er.

Even the people closest to Zhou Ling'er were difficult to notice the abnormality, let alone recognize that the other party was a fake person.

At this moment, Zhou Ling'er's face showed a sad look, she stretched out her hand, gently stroked Lu Qi's cheek, slowly raised his head from the ground because of pain, and then asked with three points of resentment and seven points of bitterness: "Don't you like Ling'er?" ”

"Why would you rather save them than save me?"

"Lu Qi, do you know? I'm so scared......"

"When that thing goes through my body, it hurts......"

"Why don't you save me......"

This is a terrible tactic.

Xiang An, or the evil god who awakened in Xiang An's body, is trying to explore Lu Qi's true thoughts through this means.

He slept in the Divine Spring Sword for hundreds of years.

He was extremely weak.

He wanted to survive, to find a body that fit his strength perfectly.

He was always cautious.

Therefore, the Shenquan Sword was used to lay an enchantment around Ganquan Peak, so that no one could step into it except for the disciples of Ganquan Peak.

And the disciples of Ganquan Peak naturally have an instinctive awe of the ancestral sword, they will try to pull out the ancestral sword, and they will also try to explore the secret of the ancestral sword's sleep, but they will never suspect that there will be an evil spirit lodged in their ancestral sword.

Hundreds of years have passed like this.

Every once in a while, he would wake up, and then use his powerful divine sense to probe the entire Ganquan Peak, looking for the body he was happy with.

But after so many years, it has never been as expected.

Until, a few years ago, Lu Qi arrived.

He felt the breath of an ancient god in Lu Qi's body - he was a descendant of a god.

Although after many years of reproduction, the divine bloodline on Lu Qi's body has become extremely thin, as long as there is some divine bloodline, it is equivalent to having the potential to become a divine body.

And he has the means to match it.

So he decided to wake up completely.

This is actually a very risky move.

Once fully awakened, the power in his body will continue to flow, and if he can't find a host before then, then the fate that awaits him will be vanished.

Therefore, he began to try to lure Lu Qi into making mistakes, but this guy named Lu Qi was extremely tenacious, and his demagogy had little effect.

So, he spent a lot of divine power and planted a seed of origin power in Lu Qi's body, wanting to slowly control him.

But what he didn't expect was that there was a soul hidden in Lu Qi's saber, and that soul had insight into the abnormalities in Lu Qi's body and injected its own power into the periphery of Lu Qi's spiritual mansion to resist his erosion.

This tug-of-war lasted for a long time, and he never succeeded.

And a few years have consumed most of his strength.

He became anxious.

At this time, Xiang An broke into his field of vision.

He was keenly aware of the darkness inside this guy.

In the days when he was locked up in Siguo Cliff again, he continued to erode and affect Xiang An.

and used Xiang An to lure Lu Qi to the side of Siguo Cliff.

At such a close distance, he tried to forcibly occupy Lu Qi's body, but the soul hidden in the opponent's sword blade did not hesitate to scatter his soul and still protected Lu Qi.

He became more and more impatient.

There was no way, he could only continue to erode Xiang An's mind, and under his bewitchment, Xiang An went down the wrong path and could not turn back.

And he followed Xiang An's collapse and successfully invaded Xiang An's body.

But even so, he still retained a glimmer of hope and wanted to occupy Lu Qi's body, so he never fused his origin with Xiang An.

It has to be done willingly on both sides.

Origins are strong and fragile, and the more resilient the mind, the more dangerous the process.

Once the other party resists in the process of fusion, it will irreversibly damage his origin and cause great trouble to the ultimate goal he is pursuing.

So he was extremely cautious about it.

It's a habit he's lived for hundreds of years.

It is also the biggest reason why he can live for hundreds of years without being discovered.

Therefore, even if the thing he dreamed of was right in front of him, he still chose the safest way to find out Lu Qi's true thoughts, just in case.

……

At this moment, Lu Qi was already extremely weak, how could he resist such a means.

The look on his face became confused at a speed that was visible to the naked eye, and he looked at the girl he had sworn to protect, and his heart swelled with sadness that seemed to tear him apart......

"Ling'er."

"I'm sorry......" he muttered.

"But it's too late."

"I can't do anything right now." Two lines of tears streamed down his cheeks.

He said, "I want revenge on you. ”

"But I don't have that ability......"

"I can only use my life to call back Brother Chu's life, they are better than me, and they are smarter than me, they live, maybe one day there will be a chance to avenge you......"

"I'm sorry Ling'er, this is the only thing I can do for you right now."

……

Lu Qisheng's heartfelt words with tears in his eyes did not arouse the slightest sympathy from the Ling'er in front of him.

On the contrary, after hearing these words, Zhou Ling'er showed a weird smile on her face.

"In this way, Lu Qi, you are really affectionate and righteous."

As she said this, the features on her face began to distort again.

In the end, it turned into an old human face.

Chu Qingxiao has never seen anyone grow old like this.

The skin on his body was like a broken water bladder, hanging from his body, wrinkled and disgusting.

His eyes were cloudy, his face was covered with spots, and the gray hair on his head was messy like weeds.

From the moment he appeared, even the air seemed to smell of decay.

Chu Qingxiao knew that this was the true face of the evil spirit in the Shenquan Sword.

is also the sixteenth peak master of Ganquan Peak - Yan Yongnian!
