Taoist Xiaoyao's words immediately left Ye Xiao speechless.
"Too careless."
Ye Xiao whispered while not using the jade pendant. Instead, he held the jade pendant tightly in his right hand and summoned a fire bomb with his left hand to hit Taoist Xiaoyao.
The fireball, which was like a candle, hit Taoist Xiaoyao's body and immediately turned him into a burning man. However, Taoist Xiaoyao did not panic at all even though his whole body was on fire and he was in the flames.
At this moment, Taoist Xiaoyao showed a strange smile, put his index finger to his mouth and said, "When did you have the illusion that you could hit me?"
Ye Xiao has heard this kind of words again no less than three times in this short period of time.
Regardless of whether the blow hit or not, he frowned and stepped forward, kicking Taoist Xiaoyao, who was already covered in fire, to the floor under the steps of the underground space.
As Taoist Xiaoyao fell heavily to the ground, the flames on his body burned even more fiercely.
This time, Taoist Xiaoyao did not stand up or speak. His body burned freely in the flames, leaving only a charred corpse on the ground.
"What exactly is going on?" Ye Xiao said with a solemn face as he looked at Taoist Xiaoyao's latest burnt corpse.
The series of things that just happened cannot be explained by common sense.
Ye Xiao began to analyze bit by bit after entering the realm of Lingxu.
Encountering a huge monster tortoise, he fell into an underground passage by chance. There were two ways forward and backward. In the end, Ye Xiao chose the one with artificial traces, and then came to such an underground space.
But the way back disappeared, and the entire underground space turned into a secret room-like environment. In this environment, there were only Ye Xiao himself and a corpse sitting in the center of the space.
Faced with this situation, Ye Xiao did not dare to go rashly, but began to practice the exercises bit by bit.
Then the guy named Xiaoyao Taoist appeared, and the peaceful time before was completely interrupted.
...
"Why did the jade pendant work for that guy at first, but then it didn't work just now? And why did the guy's appearance change?"
Ye Xiao clenched the jade pendant in his hand in confusion and looked at the corpse named Xiaoyao Taoist who was still sitting in the center of the underground space.
But the next second, he discovered that there was no body there!
"!"
Ye Xiao looked intently at the empty space where a corpse had been sitting just now. At this time, it was empty, as if there was nothing there from beginning to end.
Just when Ye Xiao was extremely vigilant, Taoist Xiaoyao's voice came to his ears again.
"Because everything you saw was fake from the beginning."
Just when Ye Xiao wanted to take action and leave the high platform temporarily, his left wrist was tightly grasped by a hand that was as dry as a tree branch!
Ye Xiao looked down in horror, only to see that the body that caught him was the corpse named Xiaoyao Taoist who had just disappeared to an unknown place!
But at this time, the corpse was alive. Although it had no vitality at all, it opened a pair of very cloudy eyes and looked at Ye Xiao with a strange smile.
What made Ye Xiao feel even more weird was that the position he was standing at had also changed.
Just now he was in the center of the entire underground space.
But as his wrist was grabbed, his position moved to the edge of the high platform.
But he didn't move at all just now!
The mummy-like Xiaoyao Taoist seemed to like the shocked and confused look on Ye Xiao's face at this time, and a laugh like a ghost from hell came out from his withered throat.
"You have been under my illusion since you entered here. Everything you see is what I want you to see, whether it is me when I was young or the jade pendant that you regard as your trump card."
Taoist Xiaoyao explained very patiently, and the way he looked at Ye Xiao was exactly like the eyes of a winner whose prey has been caught in a trap and the victory is almost certain.
At this moment, Ye Xiao was indeed like a prey caught in a trap. The spiritual power from Taoist Xiaoyao's withered hand that grabbed his wrist directly suppressed Ye Xiao, making him unable to move at all.
Now all Ye Xiao can do is listen and speak.
And this is the right granted to him by Taoist Xiaoyao.
"Now that I think about it, you guided me to get here, right?" Ye Xiao said calmly.
Ye Xiao has had this suspicion since he first saw the strange thing. Now that he has seen Taoist Xiaoyao's true identity and ability, he has become more convinced of this suspicion.
"Yes, it's all because I let you see it, Master Dao, so you can see it. Only when I let you come here can you come here."
Taoist Xiaoyao let out a weird laugh.
The next second, the stone underground space disappeared, and the arrangement of stars in the sky disappeared. Although this is still an underground space, it is a space that was opened up with only strength.
There is no sign of artificial stone bricks anywhere.
Ye Xiao looked to the end of the direction he could see. There was a fitting passage in that direction, which was obviously the exit.
What made Ye Xiao pay more attention was that there was a fresh burn mark on one wall.
Seeing this, Ye Xiao's eyes shrank.
And his appearance immediately made Taoist Xiaoyao feel even happier.
"Everything you saw was false from the beginning."
What Xiaoyao Taoist likes to do most is to attack the hearts of his enemies so that they can't tell what is true and what is false, and finally beg him to solve him.
Ye Xiao, who was controlled by a strange force and unable to move, looked at Taoist Xiaoyao who looked arrogant and almost laughed out loud. He immediately rolled his eyes and spoke.
"You can kill me, but we need to make it clear first, by whose hands will I die?"
Faced with Ye Xiao's question, Xiaoyao Taoist stopped his weird smile and looked at Ye Xiao as if he were looking at an idiot: "Nonsense, of course it's me!"
"who I am?"
Ye Xiao asked very suddenly.
"How do I know who you are, but then..."
Before Taoist Xiaoyao finished speaking, Ye Xiao directly interrupted him.
"Here comes the problem!"
Ye Xiao's voice was extremely loud, directly interrupting Taoist Xiaoyao's next words and completely interrupting his thoughts.
At this moment, Taoist Xiaoyao's dry and turbid eyes were full of doubts. What is this junior from Piaomiao Xianzong talking about? What problem? Who is whose?
Seeing that Taoist Xiaoyao remained silent, Ye Xiao quickly said solemnly: "So, there has been a problem that has been bothering you for a long time."
Taoist Xiaoyao frowned and asked, "What?"
"who I am?"
"Master Dao, how the hell do I know who you are!"
Taoist Xiaoyao was angry. He felt that Ye Xiao was teasing him.
The angry Taoist Xiaoyao's power was immediately reflected in Ye Xiao's body. At this time, he felt severe pain in his grabbed wrist, as if it was about to break.
But Ye Xiao didn't say a word, as if he didn't feel anything at all.
Ye Xiao continued: "So you don't know, do you know? Who are you? Taoist Xiaoyao? No, no, no, it's just a name, a code name. You can be called Taoist Xiaoyao, I can be called Taoist Xiaoyao, and others
They can all be called happy Taoists."
Taoist Xiaoyao remained silent. I don’t know whether he was speechless or because his head was overthinking and about to shut down.
In short, Ye Xiao struck while the iron was hot and continued.
"So after taking out the codename Xiaoyao Taoist, who are you?"
For a moment, this empty underground space fell into silence.
After a long time, Taoist Xiaoyao murmured in a very uncertain voice.
