Chapter 31: Upgrades and Endings

The moment the sword was unsheathed, the surrounding scenery became blurred and contemplative.

There is only a long rainbow like a meteor, leaving a thick and colorful mark on this almost static picture.

"Click-"

The crisp sound of metal cracking was particularly harsh in the silent courtyard.

The madness in Monk Deyuan's eyes gradually faded, and the evil Buddha light burning like a flame on his body was also like a candle in the wind, he lowered his head, looked at the blood marks that appeared in the middle line of his body, and the corners of his mouth showed a trace of misery:

"Ahem...... cough cough cough ...... Such swordsmanship...... Dao Guo......"

"Really...... It's not unjust to lose......"

"Pursued a lifetime...... In summary...... But he lost to the demons...... It's a great opportunity to ......."

Monk Deyuan raised his head with difficulty and stared at the young Taoist priest opposite: "Fellow Daoist...... Be careful...... Compassion ......"

Monk Deyuan could not finish his words, and the last trace of life fire was completely extinguished.

He's dead.

"Whew...... Whoop......"

Wang Changsheng half-knelt on the ground, panting violently.

Even if he had been promoted to the early stage of Bigu, with his strength, he still couldn't control the power of the "Imperial Sword Technique", and his body was completely hollowed out after using it.

[Kill the Evil Monk (Bigu Perfection), [Taoist] Experience +200]

[Class: Taoist Lv.3 (330/300)+]

Looking at the hints on the attribute panel in front of him and the full experience slot, Wang Changsheng did not hesitate, and his mind was a little harder on the "+" sign.

——

The moment the [Daoist] level was raised, a strong warm current washed his whole body, causing Wang Changsheng's body to recover quickly due to the use of the "Imperial Sword Technique".

After just a breath, he was back to his peak.

"Hoo ......"

With a long sigh of relief, Wang Changsheng looked at the two corpses of the monk Deyuan who fell in a pool of blood in front of him, and his heart was also quite complicated.

When they first met, he still had a good impression of Master Deyuan, but he didn't expect that the other party was the mastermind behind this series of tragedies in Ammy Town.

The monks were supposed to be merciful, but the monk Deyuan, who was once a "dragon slaying boy", eventually became an "evil dragon" and harmed the people.

Dozens of innocent children died from his radical and crazy thoughts, dead in the most glorious years of years that should have an infinite future.

As for the words that Monk Deyuan said before he died, Wang Changsheng was very concerned.

There is a saying that when a person is about to die, his words are also good.

Finally, in the end, the monk Deyuan asked him to be careful, what is the thing with the word "Ci"?

Does the sentence "losing to the demon in the heart give people a chance", does it imply that behind the Eye Demon incident in Ammy Town, there is a deeper behind-the-scenes promoter?

And what is the ultimate purpose of the people behind the scenes planning all this?

Everything is like a fog, unpredictable.

Wang Changsheng shook his head and pressed these doubts into his heart for the time being.

There is so little information at the moment that blind speculation is pointless, and when more information is known in the future, everything will come to light.

Turning around, Wang Changsheng set his eyes on the girl who was about to die behind him and the dragon beside her.

At this moment, the bodies of one person and one demon have taken on a transparent state, and after a few breaths, maybe they will completely dissipate.

Zhang Ciming's yellow paper clone of the thunder method completely destroyed the origin of the girl and the dragon of the painting demon.

In this case, no matter how clever the medical skills are, it is impossible to save them.

Wang Changsheng walked to the side of a man and a dragon, and the dragon who noticed him approaching seemed to want to move his body and protect the girl, but in the end, he was willing but powerless.

The scarlet dragon eyes stared at the girl, the former violence and viciousness had disappeared, only love, regret, and deep self-blame.

Compared with the dragon of the painting demon, the girl's expression seemed to be very satisfied, and she hugged the untouchable dragon body, as if she really felt the warmth transmitted from above.

This situation made Wang Changsheng a little surprised.

The dragon who painted the demon looked at the girl, and then at the young Taoist priest, his eyes froze, as if he had made some kind of decision.

In the next moment, a thick white light emanated from the blank scroll behind them.

It is also strange to say, the entire courtyard was destroyed under the aftermath of Leifa, only this unsightly picture scroll and bracket remained intact.

Under the white light, the illusory bodies of the girl and the dragon condensed slightly, and then, both of them flew towards the scroll at the same time.

Wang Changsheng's right hand holding the long sword trembled slightly, but after hesitating, he still chose to hold his patience - he didn't feel the slightest malice in the eyes of the demon dragon he had just drawn.

Under his gaze, the girl and the dragon of the painting demon merged into the scroll, and the intense white light emitted so that it was impossible to see the appearance on the screen.

A human figure outlined by a white light appears next to the scroll.

It was a young man dressed as a scholar and wearing a hanging crown on his head.

He looked in the direction of Wang Changsheng, deeply moved, and his voice was vague and distorted: "I wish Zixian below, meet the Taoist chief." ”

"I originally wanted to draw a picture of the real dragon for Anmi Town, so as to pray for the mercy of the dragon king and rain down, but who would have thought that it would be taken advantage of by thieves and cause a catastrophe."

"All are my sins, and I am willing to bear all my sins. It's just that Qiaomei is still young, and all this should have nothing to do with her. ”

"She's just, she misses me too much......"

"I'm dead, but it's just a strong longing that awakens me from the deepest depths of the dragon's spirit."

"I'm dying."

"But before I die, I want to leave a little life for Qiaomei."

"I implore the Taoist chief, let Qiaomei have a way out, she is really a very good child."

"In return, I gave this item to the Taoist Chief, and asked the Taoist to forgive her for her unintentional mistakes."

A ball of light flew out of the scroll and came to Wang Changsheng.

The light dissipated, revealing a milky white cobblestone, shaped like an eye, but completely closed.

"This is the eye of the dragon, and it can only be retained if it is voluntary."

"I don't know what it does, but it's the most precious thing in the painting."

The light on Zhu Zixian's body suddenly dimmed a lot, he maintained a pretentious posture, raised his head, and looked at Wang Changsheng's eyes with a gaze full of Qiji.

"Please also ask the Taoist to be merciful."

Wang Changsheng did not take the meaning of "painting the dragon's eye".

He didn't say yes, he didn't refuse, he just kept silent.

Throughout the whole incident, the painter Zhu Zixian and his only daughter Zhu Qiaomei were also victims.

But the latter is also the perpetrator.

It is true that Zhu Qiaomei was bewitched by the monk Deyuan and practiced the so-called "Perfection and Mercy Method", but it is an indisputable fact that she has created countless eyed demon bodies, killed so many children, and took away their eyeballs.

Such a sin, how can he, an outsider, be forgiven if he says to forgive?

But the deep love for his daughter in front of him also made him unbearable.

Therefore, Wang Changsheng chose to remain silent.

And silence, many times, represents rejection.

A tragic look appeared in Zhu Zixian's eyes: "Dao Chief, in fact, Qiao Mei and I are already mortal people, and my so-called glimmer of life is just a small possibility of her reincarnation." ”

"In this life, she is indeed dead."

"Even if she is reincarnated, she will no longer be what she is now."

"Please also ask the Taoist chief to be merciful and give the little girl a chance."

While speaking, Zhu Zixian knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily.

Wang Changsheng was still silent.

Seeing that Zhu Zixian's body was becoming more and more transparent, and he was about to die, but he still maintained the posture of kowtowing, Wang Changsheng sighed slightly, and finally moved his heart of compassion, spread out his hands, and let the "Eye of the Painted Dragon" fall on his palm.

"The Taoist is merciful."

Zhu Zixian's voice choked.

His body gradually turned into a point of light, merging into the scroll.

And the picture scroll that exudes a strong white light has also reached its peak with the integration of Zhu Zixian.

The dazzling brilliance made Wang Changsheng have to squint his eyes and raise his hand to block in front of him.

It took ten breaths before the light slowly faded.

Wang Changsheng put down his hand and looked ahead.

The huge scroll and wooden frame were gone, and in their place was a small white creature hovering in a clump of ruins.
