Rao Yinyin, who was behind Xu Xiaoshou, was completely dumbfounded.
She had previously guessed that Xu Xiaoshou had an unknown relationship with Mr. Sang, so she would ask for the Throne Pill from Xu Xiaoshou.
But I insist on calling them master and apprentice...
Rao Yinyin doesn’t believe it!
With the weird temperament of the vice-dean.
As his apprentice, you can only be tortured to death, but you can't grow up.
But when Lu Ke's body burned with the signature white flame from Sang Lao, Rao Yinyin was completely convinced.
No, it can't.
Xu Xiaoshou is Mr. Sang’s apprentice!
If it was just the "Jinzhao Tianyan" from the past, it could also be said that Xu Xiaoshou was just one of the vice-dean's test subjects.
But only those who have stayed in the inner courtyard for a long time have seen the power of Bai Yan.
That one glance was enough to burn half of the Izumo Peak, the tallest towering mountain in the Tensang Spirit Palace, into Izumo Tower. Not everyone was qualified to cultivate it.
"Being feared, passive value, +1."
Previously there was still a little bit of Xiao Jiujiu in my heart.
But this time, Rao Yinyin really didn't dare to mess around.
The terrifying intensity of the Ember Sky Flame is enough to threaten all spiritual refiners.
And Bai Yan is the ability that can directly burn even the way of heaven, even if you become enlightened and become a sect.
It has no fixed direction.
But if you insist on saying it.
Everyone present, regardless of sword cultivation, physical cultivation, or spiritual cultivation... were all targeted by Xu Xiaoshou.
This is how terrifying Bai Yan is!
"receive!"
Xu Xiaoshou stood in the void, watching the entire crowd being suppressed. Without any further hesitation, he waved his hand and moved the "Dao Pattern Primary Stone" and the Tianji Formation into the Yuan Mansion.
This kind of thing will change later.
Not to mention that people are still coming here non-stop.
"Plop..."
"Plop..."
The strange sound of fire echoed in the silent scene.
The people above the ground were completely helpless.
Even if they watched Xu Xiaoshou pocket the coveted "Dao Pattern Primary Stone", there was nothing they could do.
At this moment, the only extravagant desire in my heart has changed from asking for treasure to hoping that Xu Xiaoshou will not let his anger turn on himself.
After all, no one in the room could bear that anger.
Including Lu Ke!
"Hiss! Ah——"
"What the hell is this?!"
Lu Ke screamed.
There was one third of panic, one third of pain, and nine hundred and ninety-four helplessness in the cry.
He was completely unable to undo the white inflammation damage caused by Xu Xiaoshou's glance!
The Bai Yan, which was born out of the "Jinzhao Tianyan", has made a qualitative leap in burning speed.
In the past, even the spiritual essence of an innately powerful person would have to be burned for half a day before it was completely burned out.
Leave it at this moment.
Lu Ke couldn't even sustain it for twenty breaths, and the sea of qi was almost completely exhausted.
But he understood that this method of exchanging spiritual energy for time was completely treating the symptoms rather than the root cause.
Once the sea of qi is really empty.
The object burned by the white flame will also be transferred from the spiritual essence to his real body.
And look at the temperature...
In just a few breaths, he, Lu Ke, will disappear into thin air!
"Xu Xiaoshou!"
Lu Ke raised his eyes in horror, his eyes filled with begging for mercy.
But young people want to save face and suffer the consequences.
Even if he could no longer hold on, he could only murmur a few times with his lips, unable to utter those words of begging for mercy.
"Little guy, I told you not to go against me."
"It's good for you, but you just don't listen."
"Why bother?"
Xu Xiaoshou sighed helplessly: "Killing is not my intention, not to mention that you are in red, and I have some friendship with Senior Vigil. I really don't want to see you die miserably."
"Then quickly untie the flames from my body!" Lu Ke was anxious.
At this moment, his Qi sea was completely empty.
And without the spiritual shield, when the high temperature drops, he is not the body of a master, not even an innate physical body, so how can he resist?
"Certainly!"
Xu Xiaoshou grabbed it with his empty palm, and Bai Yan had just enough control.
It does not invade Lu Ke's body, but the remaining heat released can slowly roast him.
An unpleasant smell of burnt meat spread.
Lu Ke was completely stunned.
This is puzzling...
"What on earth do you want to do?!" He went crazy.
The so-called life is worse than death, or the pain is too painful to live, it is nothing more than this!
Lu Ke never imagined that one day, he would become the pile of meat on the barbecue grill in the eyes of others.
It's better to just let yourself die decently!
"I won't kill you."
Xu Xiaoshou said rudely: "As you said when you came here, I just want to make a deal with you. After all, I am a businessman."
"Being cursed, passive value, +1."
Lu Ke broke into cold sweat and hot sweat for a while, but they were evaporated in an instant.
"What deal?"
"A very simple transaction."
Lu Ke: "..."
He clenched his fists for a moment, but found that his hands were empty.
Looking down, he saw that in just such a short period of time, even if Xu Xiaoshou controlled the temperature, the flesh and blood on his hands had completely withered.
In some places, even the scorched bones were exposed.
"Devil..."
Everyone below was trembling.
This guy, whose name is Tan Ji or Xu Xiaoshou, is simply a devil.
A real big devil crawling out of the abyss!
Others are almost ready to be roasted into mummies, but you are still here talking nonsense...
Is this intentional?
It was intentional!
This guy is just taking revenge!
"Being feared, passive value, +162."
Lu Ke felt that his mind had begun to drift.
At this moment, he was no longer able to complain about Xu Xiaoshou's behavior.
"What a simple transaction, you, please tell me..."
"very simple."
Xu Xiaoshou smiled and pointed at the long sword on his back.
This may be the only divine object in Lu Ke's body that is completely undisturbed by Bai Yan.
Even under such high temperature, the "green scale ridge" did not move at all, and even the black color was not burnt out.
"You want my sword?"
Lu Ke felt like ice water was pouring down his mind, and he regained his consciousness for a moment.
Then, he said angrily: "This is impossible! Even if I, Lu Ke, are burned alive or roasted to death by you, I will not hand over my 'Green Scale Spine'!"
"Then you go die."
Xu Xiaoshou didn't even hesitate for a moment and clenched his hands.
"Plop."
"Uh-huh——"
A mask of pain was instantly put on Lu Ke's face, and the wailing sound that filled the air made me feel pity for him.
"Xu Xiaoshou, isn't this bad?"
Mu Zixi quietly touched the air, stretched out her little hand and poked Xu Xiaoshou's kidney.
"After all, he is the apprentice of the Seven Swordsmen. If he is really burned to death by you in front of everyone, the situation will be out of control."
In the Yuan Mansion, she had also heard Yu Zhiwen's legend about the Ten Seats and the Seven Sword Immortals.
Naturally, one can also know that the background of Lu Ke in front of him is by no means ordinary.
"Being discouraged, passive value, +1."
Xu Xiaoshou glanced back at Lu Ke.
He knew that even if Mu Zixi spoke in a lowered voice, it would not be difficult to eavesdrop with his spiritual sense based on the strength of the opponent.
But even in this situation, Lu Ke just struggled to support himself without saying any nonsense like "Yes, my master is Wuyue Sword Immortal, you can't kill me."
This made Xu Xiaoshou take a high look.
I have to say, this young man is very stubborn.
Of course, it is also difficult to do.
Xu Xiaoshou frowned and turned back.
In this case, let’s sing a play!
It just so happened that the junior sister also came over, and she simply made a white face and a black face, directly forcing the guy to give in.
The famous sword just appeared in front of me.
Such a good opportunity comes from trading.
Even if a little bit of coercion is used, it is still a transaction.
Xu Xiaoshou would not let such an opportunity go to waste.
He looked at Mu Zixi, his brows moved, his eyes wandered, and after a few gestures, he said in a solemn voice:
"What you said is indeed true, but now I am also on Hong Yi's blacklist. He is forcing me so much. If I don't kill him, I will lose face. If I kill him, I can still get a famous sword. Why not?
?”
"What's more, the dog jumped over the wall when he was anxious!"
"No matter how great this guy's status and background are, I, Tan Ji, have killed many people with great backgrounds. How many of them are there?"
"If you really want to look for me, let them look for me. If you want to take revenge, you have to get a number and queue up. Just wait patiently!"
Everyone below was trembling for a moment.
Lu Ke, who was wrapped in white flames, also trembled, his face full of despair.
"Being feared, passive value, +121."
Mu Zixi was obviously startled.
She didn't understand what Xu Xiaoshou was trying to express with his wink, nor did she understand how this elder brother, who was essentially greedy for life and fearful of death, suddenly became so fierce.
but……
"Then if you want to kill, you can't do it openly, right?"
"Oh?" Xu Xiaoshou followed her words and asked, "How are you doing?"
"Um……"
Mu Zixi hesitated for a moment, seeming to be thinking of a countermeasure.
After a moment, she pointed to the crowd below and lowered her voice and said: "It's impossible to come in secret now. After all, so many people just saw you burning him."
"Once Lu Ke dies, everyone will know that it was you...Tan Ji who did it."
"So……"
After a pause, the junior sister's eyes became fierce: "I suggest that everyone silence them to prevent the information from leaking out!"
Everyone below:???
What?!
Where did this little girl escape from? Are you here to cause trouble?
Isn’t it too big a deal to watch the excitement?
All the people who had been taking chances at first were now panicking.
"That's not right, girl!"
"We have no grievances, why are you so heartless?"
"None of us saw this matter... Hey, wait, why is it dark?"
"Huh? What's the matter with you... Oh, yes, yes, it's dark! Mad, where's the sound? I can't hear anything!"
The whole audience was startled.
The next second, everyone was boiling.
"Damn it, really, did someone cast a spell? I've been completely invisible since just now. Even my spiritual thoughts have been blocked. This, this, this..."
"Help, someone help me, I can't hear any sound!"
"Damn it, why are you shouting so loudly? My ears are almost deafened. No, I can't hear you either. Go away and yell."
"I'm blind, I'm blind, my eyeballs, I can't even feel my eyeballs -"
"..."
"Being frightened, passive value, +1."
"Receiving help, passive value, +86."
"Being feared, passive value, +155."
The scene was completely out of control.
All kinds of wails and calls came and went, and even Xu Xiaoshou was frightened.
This is crazy...
What about these people?
But, Mu Zixi, what’s going on with you?
Xu Xiaoshou looked at his junior sister in disbelief.
I called you here to be a scapegoat, why did you become so vicious all of a sudden?
Sure enough, you are the real evil devil, I, Xu Xiaoshou, didn’t even destroy the thoughts of the whole audience...
"Xu, Xiao, accept!"
"Being called, passive value, +1."
A voice that seemed to have been completely changed by the heat sounded from behind.
Xu Xiaoshou's heart palpitated and he suddenly looked back.
But he saw Lu Ke, who was surrounded by white flames, and at some point, strands of black mist began to seep out of his body.
As soon as the dense yet cold black mist came out, even the air temperature seemed to have dropped a bit.
"Xu Xiaoshou, do you really think I can't do anything?"
Lu Ke's expression was completely distorted.
Pain, resistance, dissatisfaction...
There are all kinds of emotions, as if the devil in my heart is about to be released and begin to bloom with evil power.
"What the hell?"
Xu Xiaoshou's pupils shrank suddenly.
He could actually feel the yin power in Lu Ke's body that he could only feel in the body of ghost beasts in the past.
But how is this possible?
My heart was in confusion.
Xu Xiaoshou thought he was dazzled.
But when "Perception" focused all its attention on Lu Ke, he realized that this was the truth!
"impossible!"
He exclaimed in his heart, Xu Xiaoshou didn't believe it at all.
Who is Lu Ke?
He is in red!
He is the disciple of Wuyue Sword Immortal, one of the Seven Sword Immortals!
How could he, who is both red-robed and white-robed, one of the two major transcendental organizations in the continent, be in cahoots with ghost beasts?
Moreover, look at this increasingly eerie black mist.
This guy has not only been touched marginally.
He must be the body of a ghost beast!
"But, something's wrong..."
Xu Xiaoshou's thoughts were numb.
At this moment, all kinds of strange emotions came to my mind.
Red clothes, ghost beast?
Extinction, guinea pig?
Seven Swordsmen, White Clothes, Holy Temple, and...
Justice, evil?
"What the hell is this!"
Xu Xiaoshou was confused.
At this moment, he was really in a panic.
What made him panic was not the power of the ghostly beast that suddenly bloomed from Lu Ke's body.
Rather, it was the fear of the unknown that caused the Holy Temple's always righteous style to be suddenly put in double quotation marks in my mind.
It is also a fear that Hong Yi, who always prides himself on being righteous and trying to implement a genocide plan against ghost beasts, harbors a ghost beast host that is impossible not to be detected.
Lu Ke...the body of a ghost beast?
This is completely impossible to cut!
But now, this completely impossible thing appeared before his eyes.
How can people not believe this?
"Perception" Looking at the audience, everyone was equally surprised by the unknown power appearing on Lu Ke.
But looking at their expressions, Xu Xiaoshou could realize it.
All of these people absolutely do not understand the so-called power of ghost beasts.
In fact, they should have only seen the words "ghost and beast body" in books.
But not Xu Xiaoshou!
He has dealt with this thing countless times, how could he not know the secret behind it?
"This is muddy water. If I step in, I might die!"
Xu Xiaoshou felt that he had discovered some ulterior secret.
He also wanted to think it was a coincidence.
but……
Is it possible?
It's possible to change into someone in red.
But a person with a big background like Lu Ke became the host of a ghost beast. Could this be a coincidence?
This is definitely the big secret!
Xu Xiaoshou understood that if this secret were to be investigated further, there might be consequences that he could not afford.
No.
Not possible.
It is inevitable!
"ah--"
A heartbreaking roar interrupted Xu Xiaoshou's thoughts rolled into a ball of twine, and he suddenly came back to his senses.
After the black mist rose, Lu Ke seemed to have an invisible giant mouth open on his back.
The terrifying white flame was swallowed up by one mouthful and completely disappeared.
"Buzz!"
After doing all this, Lu Ke raised his eyes calmly.
Those scarlet eyes, like sharp swords, penetrated the void directly and pierced into Xu Xiaoshou's mind.
"Ghost beast!"
This time, Xu Xiaoshou was completely sure.
Just with this pair of iconic red eyes, Lu Ke, the ghost beast body is really powerful!
"Brother, calm down."
Xu Xiaoshou pulled Mu Zixi and took a step back.
Mu Zixi was startled for a moment, "Xu Xiaoshou, you..."
"Stop talking, something is wrong."
Xu Xiaoshou interrupted the junior sister's inquiry. He had no time to explain at the moment.
Judge according to the previous situation.
If Lu Ke really releases the ghost beast from his body, he will definitely be unable to withstand it with his current strength.
The previous narrow escape was only because Vigil came over to clean up the mess, and that was the result.
Ghost beasts are really not something ordinary people can afford.
Starting from the throne, there is no limit to the top.
Who can bear it?
"Xu Xiaoshou..."
Lu Ke muttered unconsciously, his bone-white fists clenched tightly, but his eyes were closed tightly, as if he was fighting against something.
"calm."
"calm!"
Xu Xiaoshou retreated again. Without thinking too much, he changed his hand and grabbed Yu Zhiwen Hao's wrist.
"Will the teleportation array be there? Be prepared and use it for self-rescue if necessary!"
"Cursed, passive value, +1, +1, +1, +1..."
Yu Zhiwen didn’t reply.
Just when Xu Xiaoshou was about to continue asking, he suddenly "perceived" and saw the girl's expression.
worry.
Very worried.
but!
In Yu Zhiwen's eyes, other than full of worry, there was no special emotion.
Xu Xiaoshou's heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
This unscientific!
As the...saint of the Holy Temple?
Let’s think of her as a saint or something like that!
It is impossible for Yu Zhiwen to be like those ignorant guys who walked out of the nooks and crannies and never heard of the existence of ghost beasts.
Even before "Yan Python" was born, she had seen ghost beasts!
In this case, shouldn't her first reaction to the aura of a ghostly beast coming out of a red-dressed person be shock and disbelief?
Worried?
What the hell is this!
Xu Xiao was shocked and unconsciously let go of Yu Zhiwen's hand.
This girl, she definitely knows something!
Even more than just knowing, could she...
Xu Xiaoshou pulled Mu Zixi and took a few steps back.
At this moment, he completely felt the world's malice toward ignorant civilians like himself.
Perhaps, in the superstructure, such information is known to everyone?
Can……
Why is all this so different from the information about ghosts and beasts spread in the world?
Hongyi’s actions, the existence of the Holy Temple, the plight of ghosts and beasts...
Is all of this really as simple as what I know now?
Sang Lao's face inexplicably appeared in Xu Xiaoshou's mind.
Under the completely dark background, the image of the old man wearing a straw hat and withered body suddenly became so tall and unpredictable.
"Before you have absolute power, take it seriously and make a good chess piece!"
He spoke slowly again, and the content was the same as before.
But when Xu Xiaoshou heard the meaning, it completely changed.
"Chess piece, chess player?"
Xu Xiaoshou only felt that he might have to find a breakthrough, and Mr. Sang should be the one who knew the inside story best.
After all, almost every sentence the old man said in the past confirmed the truth of the real world that Xu Xiaoshou discovered by himself!
"So...what's going on?"
Turning his head, Xu Xiaoshou asked Yu Zhiwen.
Yu Zhiwen hesitated for a moment and said, "What you saw."
"What I saw and what I know..."
Xu Xiaoshou shook his head and couldn't speak any more.
Yu Zhiwen fell silent.
"You know something."
Xu Xiaoshou held the little junior sister's hand tightly.
If possible, he hoped to get an explanation from Yu Zhiwen, instead of going to Sang Lao to testify about something as an afterthought.
Moreover, there is still a little extravagant hope in my heart.
Is this experience of living and dying together, which can be regarded as a beautiful memory, worth Yu Zhiwen telling himself everything he wants to know?
On one side, Mu Zixi was squeezed so hard that she wanted to scream.
But realizing that the atmosphere was not right, she suppressed her screams of pain.
Her eyes flickered back and forth between the two people in front of her, her mouth pouting.
"Cursed, passive value, +1, +1, +1, +1..."
…
Shake his head.
After waiting for a short while, Yu Zhiwen still said nothing.
Xu Xiaoshou understood.
He closed his eyes deeply.
"Walk!"
Without much hesitation, seeing that Lu Ke seemed to be losing control of his own strength, Xu Xiaoshou picked up Mu Zixi and turned around to leave.
At this moment, the only person he could catch was this silly junior sister.
Fish knows the temperature...
That’s all.
Some good memories are destined to end in just two words, which is a pity.
"If you don't want to die, run away!"
Throwing these words from afar, Xu Xiaoshou regained all his momentum and lifted the restraint on everyone.
The only thing he left behind was a black shadow thrown down from the sky.
If you have promised others, even if you cannot do it in the end, you must try your best.
"Crack."
The black shadow fell on his palm, Yu Zhiwen stretched out his hand to grab it, and his eyes dimmed immediately.
The black scabbard!
"Xu Xiaoshou..."
She looked at the back of the young man who was fleeing far away and murmured, her eyes full of complexity.
Once upon a time, I really wanted this scabbard with four swords, so I chose to team up with him.
but now……
He obviously got the scabbard.
Why can't I feel any happiness in my heart?
"ah--"
The cry of pain interrupted everyone's thoughts.
The people in the underground who were freed, including the Spirit Palace team, also felt something was wrong in the atmosphere, and began to run away one by one.
"escape!"
"Run away quickly. The big devil is gone and the crisis is over."
"But, what happened to Lu Ke, how do I feel..."
"You don't care how he feels. He looks like he is going to be obsessed with it. He has a famous sword. Can you resist it when the time comes?"
"Well, that's right."
Everyone gathers together to see the vision of heaven and earth, and everyone flies away when disaster strikes.
In this space, only Yu Zhiwen and Lu Ke were left.
"Xiao Ke..."
…
"see it?"
Among the two figures flying far away, Fu Xing asked softly.
Fu Yinhong was confused and said: "What happened? Why did Xu Xiaoshou suddenly give up the famous sword? He..."
"Ghost beast!"
Two words interrupted Fu Yinhong's words.
She was startled for a moment and raised her eyebrows: "You mean, that Lu Ke?"
"Um."
"Impossible!" Fu Yinhong seemed to be frightened and said in a voiceless voice: "He, he is not in red?"
"yes……"
Fu Xing sighed softly and thought back to his father's countless instructions and instructions that night in the study.
If he didn't know a little bit about the inside story, why wouldn't his father reveal even the slightest bit of information that Xu Xiaoshou was suspected of being a ghost beast to the vigilante from Hongyi?
"You don't have to think about anything, just remember one thing."
Fu Xing came back to his senses and said solemnly: "I will stay away from anything related to ghosts and beasts from now on. I won't be able to touch them at all!"
