Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Sacred Fire Enters the Heart
Lou Yi heard Lu Xueyuan's question, lowered his head, his face instantly became lonely, he looked down at his wrist, the blood stains on it had not been wiped dry.
Lu Xueyuan followed his line of sight, saw his injured wrist, and suddenly remembered the sweetness of his talent. She consciously held Lou Yi's hand and said loudly: "Ah Yi, you ......"
Lou Yi quietly felt the temperature from her fingertips, and said to her white face: "It's okay, you have been asleep all the time, which really scared me." ”
Lu Xueyuan stared at the scar on his wrist, neither deep nor shallow, the cut skin was as shocking as the red-bellied snake just now, and there were obvious traces of being bitten by teeth.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" Lu Xueyuan only felt a sour nose, and tears rolled in his eyes again.
"A-Yuan doesn't have to feel sorry for me or anything, all this is what I willing!" Lou Yi raised his eyes, looked at her crimson eyes, and comforted her softly, "And ......" He hesitated: "Holy flint... Something went wrong. ”
When Lou Yi finished saying this, he showed an extremely uncomfortable expression, as if he had made some big mistake, like a helpless child, who obviously wanted to please the people he cared about, but inadvertently messed up everything, feeling guilty and blaming himself.
"What's wrong? Didn't you already get the flint? Lu Xueyuan asked softly. She remembered that yesterday the Chiye Master of the Chaohui Sect also came to Qingya Mountain to ask for the guilt, and almost took her back to deal with it, but fortunately, the master finally rushed back.
"I got the flint, but it's stained with my blood, and it's now a waste stone." Lou Yi said, and took out a pebble-sized stone from his arms, but the original crystal fire holy flint was like an ordinary stone at the moment, gray and abrupt, without the slightest luster, and even the flame patterns that were originally on it disappeared.
"I... I didn't know it would turn out like this! So... I can't go back to see you! Lou Yi looked at the holy flint in his hand, his heart throbbed for a while, he frowned, and he looked like he was about to cry.
"But I'm looking for a way to reply to it, believe me Ah Yuan, I'll find it soon, and then ......" He only remembered how important the Holy Fire Stone was to Lu Xueyuan, she had put in a lot of effort in order to be able to cultivate and improve her utilitarianism, and she had also endured a lot of things that should not belong to her, so he wanted to help her, and wanted to work hard to realize her wishes, even if it was difficult, but now, instead of really helping her, he also destroyed the Holy Fire Stone that could help her, and the self-blame in his heart can be imagined, go back? How could he go back as a man who kept his promises, unless, he found a solution.
Lu Xueyuan listened to what he said quietly, and when he wanted to continue to explain, he suddenly stretched out his hand and hugged the person opposite into his arms, this was the first time she took the initiative like this, not only herself, but even Lou Yi was really startled.
"Are you a fool?!" Lu Xueyuan grabbed his clothes, his eyes full of pity and self-blame.
"Do you know that compared to losing you, the Holy Fire Stone is not a big deal for me at all, I would rather not open up the spiritual veins than want anything to happen to you!"
Lu Xueyuan's inner confession, I don't know how much courage it took to say it. In her original plan, rebirth and revenge were the only things she had to do, and gaining spiritual power was the key to revenge, and she only had hatred and calculation in her heart, and the most she thought about every day was how to take revenge and how to get rid of the blood contract.
Although these wishes of her have not changed at this moment, it is not as desperate and full of pressure as before, she has a more important person and greater meaning, it is the drive and inspiration of love that makes her crawl out of the cold hell, and she can see the warm light as soon as she looks up. Phototaxis is human nature, and who would refuse to be able to warm themselves unconditionally and spread all the light and heat to their own people?
Even though she didn't want to admit it, she really didn't want to lose, the teenager in front of her who regarded her as her life.
"In the future, I won't allow you to hurt yourself like this again, do you hear Ayi!" Lu Xueyuan let go of Lou Yi, stared at the eyes that were suddenly full of tenderness, and ordered firmly and stubbornly. It seems that the young man in front of him who always sacrifices for her is a part of her, and no one can hurt him without her permission, not even himself!
"Got it." Lou Yi suddenly smiled brightly, his smile seemed to be tired and surprised. It's like a child who has worked hard for a long time, and finally waited for the reward he wanted the most, happy with a little relieved relief, and so sure that he knew it early.
"Fool." Lu Xueyuan smiled and wiped the tears left by the excitement in the corners of her eyes, stood up and patted the dirt on her body, she took Lou Yi's hand, and the gray holy flint came to the outside of the stone cave.
The light in the cave was so dim that she could only see more clearly when she walked outside.
Lu Xueyuan pointed the holy flint in her hand at the sunlight and looked at it, and didn't find anything strange, but the original red holy flint crystal as clear as a pomegranate seed was now like a piece of mud, and her heart was inexplicably a little anxious, not because the holy flint became like this, worried that she couldn't repair her spiritual power and foundation, but because she felt that it was not worth Lou Yi's effort to take it back, and it offended everyone in the Zhaohui faction.
Just when Lu Xueyuan's heart was in a hurry, the holy flint suddenly cracked in her hand, and the gray cloud pattern shattered little by little along the less obvious flame pattern, revealing the red chip inside, and a small stone was lying in Lu Xueyuan's palm in pieces. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would have really suspected that this flint was a fake stone.
"What's going on?" Lou Yi heard the sound, came to her side, and saw that the stone in her hand was divided into several pieces, and without thinking, he stretched out his finger, ready to pick up one of the broken stones.
"Be careful!" Before Lu Xueyuan could shout, he saw that as soon as Lou Yi's finger touched, he was pierced by the sharp wall shattered by the sharp stone, and a drop of fresh blood dripped down Lou Yi's finger on the crystal shattered by the holy flint.
He withdrew his hand, and the moment his blood dripped down, the red hedron underwent a mutation. It had changed from a gray-brown stone to a red light, and the red light seemed to be moving, constantly changing shape in Lu Xueyuan's hand, and the moment she withdrew her hand, it rose into the air and floated to Lu Xueyuan's eyes.
Suddenly there was a strong wind outside, and Mo Yun who drifted from nowhere rolled in, and there were several thunderous sounds, as if there was a sense of anger and resentment. The two of them looked at the rapidly changing sky for a while, their brows aching, as if something terrible was about to happen.
At this moment, the red light that was still changing, but at this moment, it turned into the shape of a flame, Lu Xueyuan's heart palpitated and trembled for a while, this flame was so familiar and terrifying, she seemed to... Where have I seen it, just as she was trying to remember, a flame-like red light flew directly into her forehead, aimed at the red iris petals, and instantly melted into it.
"A-Yuan!" Lou Yi looked at her in surprise, it was difficult to predict whether everything that happened in front of him was good or bad, he didn't know that his blood could make the holy flint become what it is now, he originally thought that it was because of the blood that the holy flint had turned from a red body at the beginning to a dead stone.
But now, the 'Holy Flint' has turned into a ball of fire, and entered Lu Xueyuan's body, with the direction of blood flow, a little bit downstream, Lu Xueyuan tightly pinched her neck with both hands, her face was red as if she couldn't breathe, she was extremely uncomfortable, as if something was burning in her body, as if she was going to cut the veins and re-ignite them, inch by inch.
Suddenly, there was a thunderous sound, Lu Xueyuan's head was 'buzzing', her whole body seemed to be on fire, there was no place that was not a faint red light, and every inch of skin on her body quickly turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, just like the saltwater shrimp she liked to eat most on weekdays, the original blue shrimp body turned red the moment she threw it into the hot water.
Lu Xueyuan is now like a shrimp body cooked in boiling water, and the hot temperature seems to be able to burn the skin when touched.
She leaned against the stone wall in pain, her eyes were half closed, the green tendons on her forehead burst out, and the hands that were tightly holding her throat were grabbed by Lou Yi.
"A-Yuan, what's wrong with you?! A-Yuan! Lou Yi almost cried, he blamed himself for taking out the holy flint when he didn't figure out anything, and he regretted that he brought her to find the holy flint, if it weren't for him, Lu Xueyuan wouldn't have suffered such a big crime.
"A-Yuan! A-Yuan, wake up! Lou saw her like this, and wanted to bite her finger again and use her own blood to alleviate Lu Xueyuan's pain at the moment, but she held her down, "No... to...".
Lu Xueyuan raised his eyes with difficulty, looked at him, and slowly spit out these two words from his mouth. No matter how uncomfortable she is at the moment, she doesn't want Lou Yi to hurt herself again.
At the same time, in Lu Xueyuan's body, after the holy flame reached her internal organs, it was like a torch, illuminating the muscles and veins of her whole body, and the blood in her body was speeding up, roaring like an evil dragon like a flood. A beating heart was 10,000 times more loaded than usual, and it was instantly magnified, followed by a rhythm like a thunder drum, rhythmically coming from the left atrium.
"Knock knock! Knock knock! Boom......! ”
Lu Xueyuan felt all this tearingly, the current time was tormenting for her, every minute and second was tormenting, her eyes were completely closed, and her biting lips seemed to be dripping blood in the next second.
"A-Yuan, you bite me, bite my hand!" Lou Yi clenched his hand into half a fist and put it on Lu Xueyuan's mouth, he would rather her regard him as a comfort in pain than see her in such pain.
Suddenly, the flames flowing in the body finally arrived at the most critical dantian, the original chaotic dantian, but at this moment it was shrouded in a firelight, and the filthy qi inside was gradually burned clean, and a faint red light rose from it, and then shrunk, turning into a red core, surging, mixed with blood and qi, and the silk was entwined.
There was still lightning and thunder outside, and then a purple lightning accompanied by thunder quickly slashed towards Lu Xueyuan, Lou Yi was on the side, watching the thunder and fire strike a second ago, and directly pounced on Lu Xueyuan's body.
At the moment when he thought he was going to escape first, a white light appeared, and between the calcium carbide firelight, he caught the thunder.
