The silver light faded away, but the night did not re-submerge. The explosion of the puppet in the Yuefan period directly tore apart the clouds in the sky, making the moonlight reflect the entire Yuanhai City brightly. And under this piece of cleanliness, a mess continues to leak.

The crackling sound was constantly ringing, the faint light of the fire was also constantly jumping, and the slight moaning sound was heard all around.

"Ahem, ahem!"

Several coughs rang out in succession in the void, duffling the rest of the voices. A handsome young man waved his hand to fan away the smoke and dust around him, he frowned, and suddenly coughed again with his hand over his mouth. This time he coughed, and he lasted for about a dozen breaths. After the cough was over, he subconsciously looked at the palm of his hand.

A pool of red blood appeared in the palm of his hand, and after the handsome young man looked at it, he couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

"I really didn't expect that I would blow myself up in the end. ”

Muttering softly, he looked down.

"Hiss~ so ruthless!"

Although he had already expected the scene below, he couldn't help but gasp after actually seeing it.

The situation below cannot be explained in a sentence or two, and only a bottomless pit can be seen in the eye. The crackling sound was nothing more than the building at the edge of the crater still crumbling. As for the original place where the pit was located, it had long since disappeared in that silver light.

The handsome young man only heard a slight moan, which he knew was from a monk who was far away. The reason why he didn't hear the cries and noises of ordinary people was that he knew it in his heart. If the estimate is correct, all the ordinary people within a radius of the crater should have died in the aftermath of the explosion.

"Hey, I didn't expect this to happen, I knew that I would have lured this puppet away from Yuanhai City. ”

With a heavy sigh, the handsome young man shook his head with some regret.

Somewhere on the ground, which was still relatively intact, with a flash of earthy yellow light, two figures slowly emerged from the light. These two people are none other than Xu Chenglin and Chen Luoxue, who fled a moment before the puppet exploded.

The two of them ran in time and fast, but no matter how fast they were, it was too late to avoid the aftermath of the explosion. At the moment before the explosion, Xu Chenglin's mind was extremely clear, or he knew how many catties and taels he had. Knowing that he couldn't escape the impact of the explosion, Xu Chenglin wisely took Chen Luoxue to perform the Earth Escape Technique and went directly underground.

Relying on the earth's share of the power of the explosion, the two did not suffer much damage. Of course, a dizziness is inevitable, but this is much lighter than other monks. Those monks who fled in the air, and those who were affected by the explosion, the lightest of them were also spat out of blood.

Venus flashed in front of me, and my ears were full of buzzing sounds, and even my mind felt groggy. Xu Chenglin shook off for a long time, and then gradually came to his senses. For the first time, he looked at Chen Luoxue on the side. When he found that Chen Luoxue was looking at him almost at the same time, Xu Chenglin smiled with relief.

It's okay, Chen Luoxue is okay, this may be the only thing Xu Chenglin feels comforted about now.

Both of them are safe and sound, and they are relieved of each other. However, when they took their attention off each other, what they saw made them worry again. The two of them immediately discovered that a bottomless pit was only more than 20 feet away from them, and some broken buildings were still crumbling into it.

The two of them were slightly stunned, and they just understood what was going on. A layer of cold sweat broke out on their backs, and the two of them were a little happy in fear. Just a little bit of a distance of about 20 feet, they also entered the explosion range. What it would be like at that time, the two of them didn't even dare to think about it.

After rejoicing, Xu Chenglin and Chen Luoxue's faces suddenly turned a little pale. They heard moaning, very slight moans.

The two of them have also worked hard in the cultivation world for more than ten years, but they can judge the current situation. Although their reaction was slow, they also came to a good time

years the same judgment. The two subconsciously looked at each other, both seeing the disbelief in each other's eyes.

A bottomless pit occupies about one-tenth of the area of Yuanhai City. The buildings and creatures in place disappeared in the silver light that pierced the night. It is impossible to count how many people disappeared in total. But to put it mildly, a few thousand people can't stop it. The only thing to be thankful for is that the location of this giant pit is only the edge of Yuanhai City, otherwise it is impossible to estimate how many people will die.

"This ...... How can this be......"

Xu Chenglin's voice trembled, and his tone was even more choked.

Chen Luoxue's eyes were moist, she pursed her lips and shook her head gently. After a few breaths, she struggled to spit out a few words.

"Don't blame us. ”

Afraid that Xu Chenglin would drill the tip of the horns, Chen Luoxue wanted to say something to comfort him. But as soon as these words came out, she felt her heart become heavy.

Xu Chenglin closed his eyes slightly, exhaled a trembling breath, and then nodded slowly. Chen Luoxue's meaning, how he didn't know. It's just that so many dead and wounded still have something to do with them.

After taking a moment of respite, Xu Chenglin finally calmed down his emotions a little. Looking at the worry in Chen Luoxue's eyes, Xu Chenglin gave her a comforting smile. But how did he know that this smile of his was simply more ugly than crying.

But it was this smile that was more ugly than crying that made Chen Luoxue choke up and laugh. Guilt is guilt, but you can't dwell on guilt all the time. Seeing that Xu Chenglin did not drill the tip of the horns, Chen Luoxue was finally relieved.

"Let's go, let's go up, it's not good to let Yuefan seniors wait for us. ”

After taking a long breath, Xu Chenglin reluctantly said to Chen Luoxue.

"Hmm. ”

Responding gently, the two of them clicked on their toes and slowly flew towards the handsome young man in the air.

The age of the cultivator cannot be distinguished from his appearance at all, for example, the handsome young man in front of him, his cultivation has reached the stage of leaping mortal, but his appearance is comparable to Xu Chenglin and the others, and he can't see the appearance of aging at all. In reality, however, no one knows how old this man is.

Although Xu Chenglin did not stay in Jiuhua Academy for a long time, he had the impression that he had never seen this person. He dared to conclude that this man was definitely not a new generation of monks like them.

Before Xu Chenglin could speak, the handsome young man had already taken the lead in speaking.

"When I received your summons, I rushed over without stopping. But I had no choice but to encounter obstacles on the way, so I came a little late. I really didn't expect that in the end, I stopped people, but it ended like this. Thousands of ordinary people were buried in the explosion, I should have led that puppet away from Yuanhai City if I knew this, I was careless!"

The handsome young man shouldered all the responsibilities on his shoulders, Xu Chenglin and Chen Luoxue couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

There are many people who take the credit, but it is rare to see those who take the initiative to take the blame. At this moment, Xu Chenglin and Chen Luoxue's guilt unconsciously diminished a lot. The two looked at each other, not knowing for a moment whether to cry or laugh.

After a few breaths, Xu Chenglin slowly spoke.

"The seniors are serious, and the seniors can't be blamed for this, but the enemy can only be blamed for being ruthless. Who would have thought that a puppet of the leaping period would eventually blow himself up. To put it mildly, if the puppet is not willing to consume, he should be able to get away, and a normal person doesn't think he will blow himself up. ”

"Heh, you're going to comfort people, but this man's rumors don't match the woods. ”

With a chuckle, the handsome young man looked at Xu Chenglin and said.

Xu Chenglin was slightly stunned, he was confident that he didn't know the person in front of him, but from the other party's words, he seemed to know himself.

Seeing Xu Chenglin's doubts, the handsome young man said with a slight smile.

"There are countless monks in the sect, but in recent years, there are not many monks who have the qualifications to impact the Yuefan period. Naturally, we will pay attention to these monks. ”

Xu Chenglin nodded slowly, understanding what was going on. He let out a breath and slowly recounted what had happened earlier. In the end, he remembered Xu Sanshan's matter. He couldn't help frowning, wanting to ask about Xu Sanshan's situation.

As if he saw what Xu Chenglin wanted to ask, the handsome young man slowly spoke.

"That half-step Yuefan died in the explosion a long time ago, if I guessed correctly, the puppet of the Yuefan period finally blew itself up, most likely because he didn't want that person to fall into our hands. ”

Xu Chenglin nodded slowly when he heard this, as soon as Xu Sanshan died, he could be regarded as unraveling a knot in his heart.

After thinking for a moment, the handsome young man said again.

"Don't feel guilty either, you two, no one lives for whom in this world, and no one dies for whom. Even if it weren't for you today, these people wouldn't necessarily be able to live. Who would have thought that for the sake of one person, those guys would be able to have no scruples. ”

Speaking of this, the handsome young man couldn't help but let out a long breath.

"In the past, they only operated in the shadows, and they didn't dare to be so unscrupulous. But now, they dare to openly create a plague! They have turned from light to darkness, and it may not be long before we will really fight them......"

Hearing half of what the handsome young man said, Xu Chenglin subconsciously wanted to ask why he didn't do it sooner. But before he could say this, the handsome young man smiled and spoke.

"You're trying to ask us why we don't clean them up sooner? Hehe, how can it be so easy. Where there is light, there is darkness, and most of the time stewards cannot see the darkness under their feet. They are already well hidden, coupled with the existence of Neiying, it is not that they take the initiative to come out, where to find them. ”

Xu Chenglin sighed and nodded slowly in understanding.

"Hey, it's not easy, it's your seniors. ”

Hearing this, the handsome young man smiled.

"Why does that sound so old-fashioned? I don't even think old, you look old-fashioned. Besides, don't call the old-timers, I'm twenty decades older than you, and I can be regarded as saving your life, and I shouldn't be wronged when my uncle screams. ”

The meaning of joke in the tone of the handsome young man, Xu Chenglin was heard by Chen Luoxue. The two of them cleaned up their mood and smiled, and respectfully called Uncle Shi.

The handsome young man smiled and answered, and then asked the two again.

"What are the plans of the two of you next, do you want to go back to Jiuhua Academy with me later, or do you have other arrangements? ”

Mentioning this, Xu Chenglin and Chen Luoxue couldn't help but look at each other. The two of them originally planned to cultivate immediately afterwards, but because they were troubled by this matter, they didn't have the slightest intention of cultivating. Now the two of them really don't know what to do next.

As if seeing through the thoughts of the two, the handsome young man touched his chin and said thoughtfully.

"I look at you two and I have an idea. Instead of going back to the sect with me to cultivate, it's better to go out and relax. Well, I'll show you a place. ”

The two looked at each other, and they both clenched their fists and said.

"Please also ask Uncle Shi for advice. ”

"It's easy to say, but you have to be careful. The outside is different from the sect, especially now it's a bit chaotic. It's just the two of you, so it shouldn't be a problem to be careful. ”

The handsome young man's lips moved slightly to transmit the sound, and Xu Chenglin and Chen Luoxue nodded slightly after listening. After that, the handsome young man let the two leave first. The next thing, the two of them can't help much. After all, there were too many people who died at once, and he, a monk who leaped into the world, needed to come forward to explain.

Xu Chenglin and Chen Luoxue wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, they nodded and said goodbye to the handsome young man.

Before leaving, Xu Chenglin turned his head and took a deep look at Yuanhai City. He felt that he should never come to this place again. This trip to Yuanhai City can be regarded as a break with here. It's just that this break made him a little unhappy.
