Chapter 73: Waiting for Her
"The barrier of Mirror Lake is definitely not something she can easily break."
The two pursued the breath of Mu Sanniang's departure, and Jiang Qiuchi was the first to speak, breaking the silence.
Chen An snorted, but did not say the guess in his heart.
After leaving Mirror Lake, Mu Sanniang's speed became faster and faster, and even if it was Chen An'an's power imperial sword, he could only barely keep up.
The most important thing is that neither Chen An nor Jiang Qiuchi can accurately perceive the girl's location now, so they can only search in the general direction.
This way is like looking for a needle in a haystack, unless Mu Sanniang is willing to take the initiative to turn back, the chances of them finding someone are very slim.
Of course, Chen An will not just give up.
It's just that with the passage of time, Dongfang is white, and what Chen An is most worried about still happens.
In a dense forest where the aura gathered, they stopped.
Because in front of them was a huge corpse of a monstrous demon beast.
This is a demon beast in the Qi cultivation period, it died miserably, its eyes were like copper bells, as if it had experienced some great pain before dying.
Thinking of the slightest black gas from the wound of the corpse, it is not difficult to guess the truth of the matter.
Chen An frowned, and his tone was very solemn.
"What I'm most afraid of is that under her impulse, she will be eaten by the magic and lose her mind, so that she will never return to the evil path......"
Jiang Qiuchi stood silently beside him and did not make a sound.
The boy raised his eyes and looked ahead.
A huge silhouette loomed, it was the city they had come from.
This city is far larger than Liucheng, and there are several times more mortals living in it.
And Mu Sanniang's next direction is Xiangcheng.
……
……
After all, it's still too weak......
Standing quietly at the head of the city, the girl looked down at the city at her feet.
The white dress on her body was blown by the wind, outlining the graceful body inside.
That beautiful face, as expressionless as ever.
may be different from someone's expectations, but in fact, Mu Sanniang feels that her current state of mind is very peaceful.
She didn't really blame her brother.
She just heard too much helplessness from the young man's words.
Although he may not have wanted to express this meaning, when it fell into Mu Sanniang's ears, it automatically became what she wanted to see.
The younger brother is always only hers, and can only belong to her.
It's just that because of his weakness, he was temporarily coerced.
It all seemed to be getting simpler again.
Only by becoming strong enough can you protect your brother and cut off all the hands that are trying to reach out.
The girl's eyes lowered slightly, and her gaze fell on the city with a population of hundreds of thousands at her feet.
As the sun rises, you can see that there are already many pedestrians on the street.
There are early vendors, hunters who are ready to go out of the city to hunt with tools, and officials from the upper office.
Soul devouring has never been something that can only be devoured by devouring demon beasts......
Although the soul of a mortal is much weaker than that of a monk.
However, the number of mortals, and the difficulty of obtaining them, are by no means comparable to monks.
This is a very simple arithmetic problem.
It is no wonder that since ancient times, those demons have always set their sights on mortals.
As for causing the whole world to be miserable, or carrying hundreds of thousands or even millions of karmic obstacles, what can it be compared to the temptation of becoming stronger?
The lives of hundreds of thousands of people now seem to be in her thoughts.
Inexplicably, Mu Sanniang suddenly remembered the admonition when she drew her knife for the first time.
"There's no turning back when you draw a knife, just like you can't change the ending."
It's true...... Can't go back?
Mu Sanniang's musings were interrupted by an eager shout.
It was a Ding soldier who climbed the city wall to watch the wind, about thirty years old, and was now staring at the girl in the white dress who was standing quietly with his lewd little eyes open.
"Hey, the girl over there, come here, it's too dangerous to stand over there, come here uncle, let uncle and I show you something good."
The man said, he could barely restrain himself at first, but when he said that he was not pretending to be in the back, there was lust in his eyes, and he wanted to rush forward and eat the girl alive.
After all, he has lived for half his life, and it is the first time he has seen such a good-looking girl.
What made him even more ecstatic was that the girl actually walked straight towards him.
People in these years are so easy to deceive?
As soon as the thought flashed in the man's heart, his excited expression froze.
Because there was a long, black knife that pierced his somewhat hunched body at some point.
Without too many words, the girl didn't even look at him.
The wind blew in the early morning and blew the body that had fallen from the city walls.
And the white dress is long gone.
……
……
Crossing the city and traveling three thousand miles to the west, it is a Jedi that is difficult for mortals to reach.
It is full of yellow sand, no grass, no people, and poisonous scorpions everywhere, in which only monks can survive.
In the world of cultivating immortals, this place is called the Circumference Domain.
It's just that because of the remote location and the thin spiritual energy, except for those monks who specialize in the outer ways of demons, there are generally no monks who come to this ghost place.
Gradually, with the increase in the number of evil cultivators, the uncircumferential areas became more and more mixed, and there were even several cults of cults on the surface, all of which took root and preached here.
On the seventh day of chasing his sister, the figure of the young man slowly appeared in a piece of yellow sand.
This is already the belly of the Circumference, belonging to the altar of the Yin Corpse Sect.
And this time, what was placed in front of Chen An was no longer the fierce beasts with different cultivations in the past.
That's a bunch of real 'people'.
It's just that these people have now lost their voices, and they are all neatly dismembered by a knife, and the corpses are scattered everywhere, and the wisps of dark blood are poured all over the altar.
The stench of countless corpses attracted many vultures to hover high in the air.
Looking at the messy scene in front of him, the young man was a little silent.
Among these evil cultivators, there are many demons in the Jindan period.
But for the girl who always walked ahead of them, it seemed to be just one more slash.
What kind of rate of progress is this?
He couldn't imagine that in just seven days, the girl who had only just entered the foundation was in what kind of state she was in now.
Chen An didn't know for a moment whether he should feel happy or unhappy.
Fortunately, until now, the girl still retains a trace of conscience and has never pointed the butcher's knife at innocent people.
Unfortunately, no one knows if or when that day will come.
Beside him, Jiang Qiuchi's increasingly solemn voice sounded.
"We chased all the way, and all these corpses we encountered seemed to have one thing in common."
"Their souls are missing, it doesn't look like they will disperse naturally, otherwise there wouldn't be even a trace of remnants left."
Chen An was speechless, just looked farther away.
The yellow sand there obscured the sky and the sun, covering up all the ghosts and ghosts in this uncircumferential area.
Sanniang didn't want to see him.
……
In the yellow sand in the sky, the boy continued to chase for half a month.
Along the way, every few days, there will be a scene as tragic as before.
Moreover, the evil cultivators who have died, it is obvious that their cultivation is still rising.
From the very beginning of refining qi to building the foundation, to the current torture and killing of Jindan.
He didn't know why the girl was able to find the strongholds of these evil cultivators so accurately.
He could only imagine and gradually construct in his mind what it looked like at that time.
The painful wails of the people, the terrible screams of vultures in the air, and the incomplete corpses that could be seen everywhere on the ground.
Only the girl stood on the altar, holding a thin knife, and looked at the blood slowly flowing under her feet with a blank face, until the blood clotted and became dull.
In the end, the yellow sand blew through, leaving a wolf everywhere.
Finally, the boy stopped the chase.
He was tired.
"Let's go back."
Jiang Qiuchi was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously asked, "Don't continue to chase?" ”
The boy shook his head, "She doesn't want to see me now, she can't catch up." ”
"So, where are we going back?" Jiang Qiuchi asked again.
The boy turned around, and one last glance in the direction of his sister's departure, he spoke softly.
"Go back to Taixuanzong."
"Wait for her."
