Chapter 264 Xuanming Demon Ring
Yan Xueying looked at the ring on her hand, then looked up at Mo Liangcheng, as if she was quickly considering who she should believe. But even though she was gradually being persuaded, Mo Liangcheng's preaching attitude still made her dissatisfied: "Why are you so sure? Could it be that you are ignorant? What you don't know does not mean that it does not exist..."
This time, Mo Liangcheng quickly admitted: "Yes, what I don't know does not mean that it does not exist. But I know more clearly that something that does not exist is that it does not exist, and it is impossible for you to fall from the sky because of your strong desire."
When Yan Xueying was still digesting this tongue twister, she had already let go of her hand and walked slowly around her, slowly circled around her. It was the first time Ye Shuo and Luo Dixing noticed that he was so profound.
"Do you think there is really something so good? I don't know if the kind-hearted person at that time said it to you. It is called the Xuanming Demon Ring. It can indeed absorb demonic energy, but don't be too happy too early. It just absorbs it. The violentness and corrosiveness in it still exist, just like poison will not become non-toxic because it is absorbed by you.
You couldn't absorb it before because when the demonic energy touched the palm, the strong stinging sensation made you immediately shrink your hand. In fact, this is a self-protection mechanism of the human body. It allows you to know what can be touched and what can't be touched. But the Xuanming Demon Ring has just passed this step.
Let me give you an example. If the demonic energy is a poison, it is the needle that stores poison, which transports the poison that you originally avoid to be afraid of into your body little by little...
You should have noticed that the situation at that time was out of your control. Even if you regret it, you would not be able to stop absorbing it actively. Then the demonic energy would cause chaos in your body, destroying all organs until it erodes the soul.
At that time, you will become a living dead person filled with demonic energy. Things like this can only be bought on the black market. Anyway, they only make money and will not care about other people's lives or death."
When Yan Xueying suddenly appeared, she forcibly absorbed the demonic energy in front of the three of them. From failure to success, no one paid attention to the subtle changes in it.
However, when the demonic energy gathered towards her in large areas, it was not as "even" as Ye Shuo absorbed it, and it washed all parts of the body smoothly. Yan Xueying's demonic energy was more concentrated on her fingertips, and then it was quickly spread to the whole body from this point. Since the process was only a blink of an eye, it was not surprising that bystanders could not see it.
But Mo Liangcheng's knowledge of rare treasures was far more important than that of ordinary people, and he almost immediately thought of the Xuanming Demon Ring. When he rescued her later, he saw that she was wearing this ring on her hand at a glance, which was roughly certain.
After his explanation, Yan Xueying's face was blue and white, and her teeth were biting her lips tightly. The last bit of unwillingness in her heart wanted her to find some evidence for herself.
Her eyes swept the room wildly and happened to see Ye Shuo. At this time, she didn't care about the hostile relationship between the two, pointed at Ye Shuo and shouted: "What about him? He was indeed absorbing the demonic energy just now, and I saw it with my own eyes! Do you still want to tell me that he is a demon beast?
Then... even if this ring is really as you said, it at least means that there are other props in the world that can absorb demonic energy!" As he said, his eyes also turned around Ye Shuo, trying to find out if he was wearing hidden accessories.
Mo Liangcheng sighed, as if he also felt that Ye Shuo's existence was a ready-made face-slapping tool. He coughed dryly and said, "Don't look for it. I don't know what happened to him. Anyway, there are always many unsolved mysteries in this world. But as for the props that absorb the demonic energy harmlessly, I can guarantee you, no, at least within the current technical scope, absolutely nothing!"
The alert in Yan Xueying's eyes slowly faded away like the melting of the ice. When she looked at Mo Liangcheng, she was left with doubts: "Why do you know so much? I have never heard of what you just said in the sea ghost king..."
Mo Liangcheng, who had been holding the airs of a teacher, heard her words, suddenly he looked like a real playboy, with his hands on his back at the same time, his eyes were arrogant, and he talked: "How do I know? My business has been open all over the world! I grew up flipping through the account books since I was a child. I don't know what I don't know?
Not only the Xuanming Demon Ring, I also know that your belt is called "Xuan Sect", which is actually disguised as a soft sword. When fighting against enemies, it can be used as a sword, and if it swings it round, it can be used as a whip; and this bracelet, called "Bi Shui", has the same function as a storage ring, but the space inside is about fifty times that of an ordinary storage ring, and it is still a very precious treasure, for example..."
"Enough!" Yan Xueying interrupted his knowledge with a cold face. In any case, his equipment was introduced in detail by an outsider, especially in front of the enemy. Perhaps no one would be in a happy mood.
She glared at the ring that made her fool of herself and almost died, and wanted to take it off and throw it away, but she didn't take it off for the first time, just thinking it was caused by too much anger. However, when she tried it several times, the ring still seemed to grow on her hands.
And she didn't know whether it was the Xuanming Demon Ring's punishment for her rude behavior or the psychological effect, she felt that the ring seemed to have suddenly shrunk, causing her fingers to hurt slightly.
"..." Yan Xueying didn't like to show weakness, so even if she suddenly encountered this huge change, she didn't say a word, just caring about herself and being anxious. However, Mo Liangcheng suddenly rushed over and stared at her ring and looked at her carefully. Her expression did not show any surprises, as if she had expected it.
"It's true." Mo Liangcheng held his chin and stared at the Xuanming Demon Ring carefully. At this time, the beautiful obsidian above it had become evil and ferocious, as if it was an eye that was grimly smiling.
"It is said that once this Xuanming Demon Ring is worn, it will follow until the master dies. And its master should have just died of the erosion of the demonic energy...
The black market is indeed dark enough. They not only cost you money, but also make you worth the money after death. If you are eroded by demonic energy and become a living dead, as I said just now, as long as you are still wearing this ring, they will definitely have another way to control you, make your corpse their "yin corpse demon soldiers" and continue to hide in the dark to serve them. A team of undead demon soldiers legion, just think about it and know how terrible it is.
If you are lucky, you just want to take off the ring before absorbing the demonic energy... But what's the use? You will find that you can't take it down, and they are determined to die! - Well, this 'you' is just a general term, and you don't have to be self-indulgent - you have signed them for the sale contract after death, and it actually took a lot of money to buy it. I really saw the first person who is called 'I'm selling it and counting money for others'. I admire it, I really admire it."
"Can't you stop talking sarcastic words?" At this time, Yan Xueying's face was so gloomy that it could be twisted out of water. Looking at Mo Liangcheng's relaxed look, it was obvious that he knew the solution, but he didn't say it. Could it be that he was waiting for him to surrender to him?
For others, it is common for a question at the critical moment of life and death, but it is as heavy as a thousand pounds to Yan Xueying. Her distorted self-esteem has firmly sealed her mouth and strangled her throat.
Fortunately, Mo Liangcheng didn't seem to want to see her jokes, so he quickly put his hands on his back: "Sorry, sorry, I am just a little more emotional. Are you trying to ask for the solution? Don't worry, just as everything is mutually reborn, nothing is absolutely unsolvable.
The reason why this ring cannot be taken down is because there is an evil curse power on it. As long as you soak it in the sacred water, you can resolve the curse and then it will turn back into an ordinary ring.
It is said that there is a Tianlu Spring in the secret realm of Tianlan. It is composed of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and it has the most restraining effect on these evil energy. Moreover, it is not far away. It is also in the Tianxiang Demon Bone Realm. If you go along, you can go there later."
Yan Xueying frowned slightly, and she silently recited the three words "Tianluquan" several times in her heart. Although she had never heard of the legendary "Sacred Water", the other party should not have had to deceive her at this time.
In contrast, this debt of favor that she had been carrying twice and could not be rejected made her even more irritable. She heard her tired voice, which seemed to come from a very distant space: "Why tell me this? What benefits do you want to get?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Dixing subconsciously crossed his gaze. He really wanted to know, Moliang City, which has always pursued "no matter to yourself, and hang up high" to the extreme, what prompted him to repeatedly deal with the strange girl's little business today! Is it the sequelae left by him in the illusion? Or is it still immersed in the illusion and not awake?
In Moliang City's eyes that were as indifferent as the starry sky for many years, there was a rare flash of light at this moment, but no one could tell what it was.
"Who knows. Maybe it's because I happen to be doing a good deed every day; or maybe it's because you're an old acquaintance of your benefactor brother; or maybe it's because you're a person I know; or maybe it's because I'm a person who has died once and knows the value of life better than others. There are many reasons, just choose one that's easy to hear."
Perhaps only he knows how much sincerity is hidden in these jokes.
Naturally, Luo Dixing and Yan Xueying would not understand. They only thought that he was fooling himself like ordinary people, so they could only sigh. But Ye Shuo was different. As someone who had also experienced his entire fantasy, Ye Shuo could understand why he took special care of Yan Xueying.
At first, Yan Xueying's arrogant and cold look probably reminded him of Mo Gucheng. In the following few exchanges, as a person with the same experience, he probably could see that Yan Xueying's appearance that she wanted to become stronger at all costs was also due to the lack of family affection. Her madness was also out of wanting to be recognized by her family, which naturally made him feel a little sympathetic.
The difference is that the family in Mo Liangcheng's memory is still very warm. His father loves him deeply, and all the guards and servants also like him very much. He carries the hopes of the whole family and works hard to cultivate in order to win back his brother's displaced heart. No matter how difficult it is, at least he still has the most solid backing made of family affection.
What about Yan Xueying? She was rejected by the whole family. She was the one who was displaced, or exiled. There was no one behind her. If she could not become stronger, then she would have nothing. That is why she became so cold and sharp. These are also tools she used to protect herself. No matter from any aspect, Yan Xueying was more pitiful than herself.
Mo Liangcheng, who had just been freed from the illusion, does seem more fragile and susceptible than usual, so he said so many things to Yan Xueying for the first time. While helping her, he is also venting the emotions he has accumulated in the illusion, which is equivalent to completing a self-salvation.
However, there is a limit to sympathy. Mo Liangcheng will not be able to spread love to help her resolve family conflicts. At most, it is nothing more than just that she just happened to meet her now, so she can help her to survive.
Since he was selfish and others, Ye Shuo certainly had no objection. But as the matter came to an end, he suddenly remembered that he had been disturbed by the Xuanming Demon Ring, and he almost forgot the matter. He hurriedly rushed forward and called Yan Xueying: "Wait! After leaving the realm of the Sea Ghost King, shouldn't you go back to Tianxiao Pavilion with Yan Xuemeng? Why did he appear here?"
Yan Xueying turned to Ye Shuo, and at this moment her face was covered with coldness as usual: "How could I go back with her? Let the old guys in the clan know that their judgment on me was not wrong!"
After so many years, Yan Xueying could still see the elders of those clans pointing at him as soon as they closed their eyes. When they looked at Yan Xuemeng, the gentle and appreciative gaze would turn into an unconcealed sigh and disgust when they fell on him.
She had heard the elders' comments about her more than once, not even caring about whether she was present or not.
"Oh, they are all the bloodlines of the Yan family, why is the gap so big?"
"Yes, I still can't learn a simple spiritual escape technique when I'm ten years old! Xue Meng learned it at the age of three!"
"Forget it, for it, the tree has dead branches. Even my children of Tianxiao Pavilion cannot guarantee that everyone is excellent. There will always be a few incompetent people. It is enough for us to have Xuemeng! Moreover, there are many outstanding juniors in this generation of family divisions, such as Julin and Yueque. As long as you cultivate more in the future, you will definitely be able to take on the main responsibilities."
"Yes, they are getting older next time. In order to avoid bad influence, don't let her play with Xue Meng again."
On a cold winter night, these words were colder than the snowflakes that smashed into her heart.
"Yes, my qualifications are indeed very average, but I have been working hard all the time... Why can't you see my efforts..."
Once upon a time, she wanted to get a compliment from them, hoping to hear them say that Xueying is also good.
But gradually, she learned to stop asking for extravagance.
If she followed Yan Xuemeng back to Tianxiao Pavilion to heal her wounds now, she could even imagine the elders' contemptuous tone: "After all garbage, I can't make a fortune outside, so in the end she can only go back to Tianxiao Pavilion to seek shelter!"
——No! She definitely doesn’t want it!
