Chapter Twenty-Three: The First Encounter
Yue Luo didn't know what she was talking about, but if she wanted to come here, it would definitely not be for some trivial matter. However, her next sentence made him freeze in place immediately, and she whispered, "This gate of hell will be opened in about half a year, are you ready?"
Hearing what she said, Yue Luo stood up abruptly and said sharply, "What are you talking about?"
Xuan Che still sat calmly, his eyes looked at the dim sky of the underworld, and the words that came out of his mouth were infinitely mocking, "Such a trick can deceive others, but it can't deceive me." She finally showed her true colors, and it was a cold contempt to the bone. I don't know why, what he did was actually very brave, but he just thought he was a coward, maybe he was like this, he was too similar to himself, he did such a reckless thing back then, and paid a heavy price for it. Later, she gradually understood that this is not called bravery, and those who do things without thinking about the consequences are actually cowards. Because he couldn't face the consequences of his choice, he chose to die. But in this world, it is easy to die, but it is difficult to live. What is it to choose what is easy and what is not easy to escape, not a coward?
When Yue Luo saw her like this, his murderous aura had already poured out. He felt threatened, and he wanted to kill the woman in front of him. Although he knew that his cultivation was not as good as her, he still unsheathed the pure Jun sword that had been hidden in his sleeve. As soon as she was distracted, he killed her in one fell swoop. This is a natural human reaction when threatened.
Even if Xuan Che doesn't have to look at him, he can see what he wants clearly. A sneer crossed the corner of her mouth, and the smile was like a sharp blade flashing in the dark night, and he didn't know where it would appear next. And she doesn't care about any preemptive strikes but is controlled by others, she just wants to quickly stab her pure Jun sword into her heart and end this oppression.
He watched her look up at the dim sky outside the window, so he carefully lifted his sword and poured twelve points of true power into the sword, in order to kill the enemy with one sword. She looked at the sky of the underworld, her brows furrowed slightly, as if she was thoughtful. He quickly raised his sword and walked towards her, the tip of which was pointed straight at her heart. There is no real move in this sword, he only has one move, which is to insert the sword into her heart, so whether she uses her palm, fingers, sword, or knife to block his sword or stab him back, he will not stop.
Xuan Che felt the murderous aura approaching, but he was still unmoved. Like a lazy cheetah, waiting to deliver his fatal blow. His sword was getting closer, five, four, three, two, one. The tip of his sword had reached her chest, but it didn't slow down. And now, whether she fights back or blocks, it's too late.
He confidently plunged his sword into her heart, and she was unmoved, just glanced back at him. He couldn't help but meet her gaze. But I found that I seemed to see a deep whirlpool, and this whirlpool was about to suck itself in. He immediately felt a trance, as if every qiē in front of him had been blurred, he felt that his hand holding the Chunjun Sword slowly let go, and he heard the Chunjun Sword fall to the ground, making a dull sound. He felt his consciousness a little blurry, but also a little sober. She saw her get up slowly, her cold gaze was like snow in winter, teaching people to feel cold all over her body. She stretched out her white hand and gently stroked the face of the purple-clothed man kneeling in front of her, but her eyes were looking at him in the air, and she said, "If there is a next time, I will not be polite." Then a sneer crossed the corner of his mouth, turned around and picked up the unconscious Qing Ming, and slowly walked out of Yueluo's dormitory.
With her gone, the house became deserted. Yue Luo's mind also slowly calmed down, he was now floating in the air, and his own body was kneeling on the ground, kneeling in front of the place where she had just been sitting. The man in purple he touched when he left was himself. She actually captured his soul in an instant. He didn't know what was going on at all, he only remembered that before being dementored, he was holding the Chunjun Sword and was about to stab her heart, and before the stab, he couldn't help but glance at her, and then he felt a chill in his heart, and then his mind was in a trance, and when he regained consciousness again, his soul was already floating in the air. And she left without knowing when, and took away the Taoist priest who was knocked unconscious by herself. He seemed to remember what she said to herself before she left, if there was a next time, she would not be polite. He knew that there was a huge disparity in strength between him and her, but he didn't expect that he wouldn't be able to pass under her hands, and he was inexplicably captured by her. He couldn't help but laugh at himself: What else can you do? But it's useless to laugh at himself, he has to find a way to get his soul back to its place right now.
Hyun Che carried Qing Ming back to Orchid's residence, then put him on the bed and roughly checked his injuries. He didn't have any external injuries, but his internal injuries were extremely serious, and his ribs and back were also injured. Although Yue Luo deliberately spared his life and never dealt him a heavy hand, it was not easy for him to heal from these injuries. In particular, the injuries on his back and internal injuries, even if he can heal now, will leave hidden dangers in the future, which will slow down his cultivation speed, or at worst, maybe his cultivation path will end here, and maybe his cultivation will not be able to make greater progress in the future. Xuan Che glanced at the little Taoist priest with a frown on his brows a few times, and he was also quite embarrassed in his heart. It's a pity to be young.
She beckoned the maid Cuiping to come in and help him wipe the blood on his face, and when Cuiping came in, she saw a young ghost waiter lying on the orchid bed, but she didn't dare to ask more, and obediently scrubbed his face clean. He had just been fighting with Yue Luo, and the human skin mask on his face had already fallen off, and Cui Ping couldn't help blushing when she saw his young and handsome face at this time. Then he looked up at the orchid who was sitting at the table in contemplation, and a look of doubt flashed in his eyes.
Seeing that she had cleaned up the little Taoist, Hu Ji said lightly, "You go out first." Then he went to the bed and tried to untie his clothes and take a closer look at his wounds. As soon as her hand reached mid-air, she was grabbed by Cui Ping, who took her hand, knelt on the ground, and said carefully, "Madam, there is a doctor in this house who can cure the disease." Under the melon field and plums, you have to avoid suspicion. ”
Xuan Che knew what she was thinking, so he only laughed lightly, "It's okay, I have my own measure, you go down." ”
Cui Ping was also slightly surprised when she saw that she was bold in admonishment, but it did not attract any punishment. It's just that the master has already said so, and no matter how much the slave says, it's not good, so he has to go out carefully.
Xuan Che saw Cui Ping go out, so he sat down in front of the bed and carefully examined his wounds. The injury was similar to what she had just seen, except for the injury to her back, which was more severe. Probably because of hitting the wall, the tail vertebrae have been broken, and I think I may be left with a disability in the future.
Xuan Che glanced at Qing Ming, who was still unconscious, sighed, and saved him, and he should accumulate virtue and do good. Then he stretched out his hand and pressed it on his wound, using the method of interception to slowly heal him. He is just a mortal, and it is still much easier and faster to govern than to cultivate the source. But after his wound healed, Hyun Che still felt a huge wave of tiredness hit him. Maybe I really can't do it, and it's so hard to save even a mortal.
After Xuan Che accelerated the healing of the wound for Qing Ming, he collapsed beside Qing Ming and fell into a deep sleep.
