When I woke up, my whole body was paralyzed. Although the burning sensation had subsided, the memory of the overwhelming pain still stayed in my mind and shocked me.
I calmed down and looked around, and suddenly I felt moved again.
Although I am lying on a stone bed in a stone house, if the things around me were made of wood, I would probably think that time has flown back.
Such a situation, the furnishings in this room... I quickly turned my head, and my heart suddenly tightened. On the stone table beside the bed, sure enough, there was a bowl of steaming... clear porridge...
I was in a trance, thinking I was still in a dream. This is obviously a demonic realm, but why is there porridge?
I was about to sit up when the door was pushed open.
The man stood at the door, wearing a black brocade robe with a faint blue halo. He looked in my direction with burning eyes, paused briefly, and then walked over again.
He walked to the bed, and I tried hard to calm down. I hurriedly tried to sit up, and called out weakly:
"Lord, Lord."
He bent down, held my back with one hand, and looked at me without hesitation. At this moment, I completely woke up. After all, the scene in front of me would never be the same again. The person in front of me
, and now I don’t remember that I am an old friend.
I sat up straight and rolled over from the bed. I no longer felt that powerless at this moment. I stepped aside, not knowing what I should do next.
"Who is the person who broke into the Demon Realm with you?"
I never thought that the first words he said to me would be like this. I was a little flustered for a moment, but it seemed to be expected.
Even if I changed my appearance and made up a reasonable origin, since he showed that look in the armory that day, I guessed that no matter what I changed, he would probably have seen through it.
I subconsciously put my hand on my chest, and sure enough, his eyes followed him immediately. I felt a little hot in my heart, because what I touched was the crystal hair pendant, and he did recognize it.
Hair pendant.
But he didn't recognize me that day. What happened? Although he lost his memory, didn't he lose it completely?
"and who are you?"
Before I could answer, he suddenly took a step forward, pressed in front of me, and looked down at me, the eagerness in his eyes extremely clear.
I looked back into his eyes, trying to find some familiar traces from the depths of those pupils.
We looked at each other directly, and his breathing seemed to speed up a little, and the breath fell on my cheek, still showing a little warmth.
The air around me seemed to be about to freeze. I suddenly came back to my senses, quickly avoided his gaze, and took two steps back. I didn't know how to answer, but I heard a voice coming from outside the door.
"Report to the Lord that envoys from the Qinghu Army have come to visit and say they have important matters to discuss."
He finally looked away from me reluctantly, but his frown did not loosen.
He thought for a moment, turned around and said to me: "Stay here, don't leave, wait for me to come back."
Then, he turned around and walked out.
I breathed a sigh of relief, but when I thought about the message passed by the demon soldier just now, I couldn't help but feel panic again.
Qing Chu's envoy actually came to see him. Are he and Qing Chu in the same camp? If so, my situation will be even more dangerous. I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to send a message to Cang Li or the Demon Emperor.
I'm even more puzzled, how could he be of the same faction as Qing Chu? Qing Chu is so vicious and cunning, did he even change his character after becoming a demon?
I walked to the bedside, but lowered my head and saw the bowl of porridge. I frowned, unable to sort out the various thoughts in my heart.
Since I can't figure it out at the moment, I simply want to ignore it for now. When I see the Demon Emperor and Cang Li, I naturally don't need to guess blindly about the situation in the Demon Realm.
After making this decision, I walked directly to the door, and when I was about to open it, I was startled. A black figure blocked my sight at the door and almost bumped into me. I looked up and saw that he was also looking down at me.
"Yun..." I lost my words for a moment, quickly changed my tone, and took a step back, "Lord, Lord..."
"Where are you going?"
"I...I just..." I tried hard to give a reasonable reason, "I just want to find the...token I just left behind."
Finally I found a more reasonable explanation, so I met his eyes again and firmly expressed the authenticity of my explanation.
But he stepped forward and forced me back into the room.
"Now, you don't need that token anymore." He closed the door behind him. I knew that if I didn't answer his question tonight, I might not be able to get out.
I held a breath in my chest, and suddenly I felt a little dizzy, my eyes went dark, and I could hardly stand. I leaned to the side, and he quickly supported me, and then helped me to the bed.
He helped me sit down.
I held my forehead with one hand and peeked at his reaction at the moment. I just hoped that when he saw me like this, he wouldn't ask any more questions, or that he would lock me back in the stone prison and I would just look for an opportunity to escape.
.
He indeed didn't ask any more questions, but he didn't let me lie down either. Instead, he hugged me from behind with one hand, reached out to the stone table with the other hand, and lifted up the bowl of clear porridge.
He handed the porridge to me and said, "You have slept all day, so let's eat something first."
I was a little surprised, it turned out that I slept for a whole day! It seems that I am not used to eating those barbecues in the Demon Realm. I have never been full these past few days, and I no longer feel the strange feeling of being hungry.
I took the porridge numbly and took a few bites, deliberately slowing down, constantly guessing what he would say and do next.
Just as he was thinking about it, another very urgent announcement came from the demon soldiers outside the door.
"Report to the Lord, someone has forcibly broken into Yunyuan Pavilion. The intruder is very powerful. The demon soldiers left behind in the pavilion can no longer resist it!"
My hand holding the spoon stopped in mid-air and seemed to tremble slightly.
He obviously noticed something strange about me, stood up suddenly, and said very seriously: "I will come over immediately."
I was still wondering if it was Cang Li. The next moment, he took the bowl away from my hand and grabbed my arm. Then, I felt him activate his spiritual power. After a while, the sky and the earth spun around.
Everything disappeared without a trace, and when his vision became clear again, the world around him had changed.
I was trying to see everything around me clearly, but suddenly I realized that my feet were suspended in the air, and then his grip on my arm disappeared. Only then did I see that I was in a circular transparent barrier in mid-air, and
He is outside the barrier. Opposite us, a golden battle armor with shining lights is none other than Cang Li.
I originally wanted to call him, but when I opened my mouth, I found that I had been cast a silence curse at some point. I frowned, but suddenly I thought that my appearance and body shape had changed, and I didn’t know if Cang Li could
Identify it.
Before I could recover, the barrier I was in was pushed away by a palm. Then, two powerful forces, one black and one gold, collided together. The powerful force counterattacked, causing the surrounding area to tremble.
, but the barrier I was in seemed not to be affected at all, but my line of sight was confused by their battle.
He was actually evenly matched with Cang Li. He became a demon in just ten years, or maybe not even ten years. How could he be so powerful?
In surprise, there was another fierce collision. I was anxious. In my desperation, I suddenly remembered something and silently recited a mantra in my heart.
After reciting the mantra, I began to look around anxiously. After a while, I finally raised the corners of my mouth slightly.
During the fierce battle between the two of them, the sound of wind suddenly rose in the distance, and a huge figure came closer from far away, followed by a loud roar that shook the earth, causing the two people who were fighting to temporarily stop their moves.
, Cang Li placed the Cang Rong sword across his chest and turned to look.
Then, Yunjin appeared completely in our sight, waving its huge wings that covered the sky and the sun. I waved to it desperately in the barrier, and it seemed to understand what I meant, and went straight to where I was.
The circular barrier flew over.
By the time the black figure realized its purpose, it was already too late. Just now, he was probably afraid that the spiritual power of the fight would affect me, so he pushed the barrier I was in a foot away. Now Yun Jin's speed is too fast, even if
He can move instantly, but he may not be able to move faster than Cang Li behind him.
I caught a glimpse of him from a distance and seemed to frown, but then Yunjin's huge head was very close to me. He slammed his forehead against the barrier where I was, and a crack immediately appeared in the barrier, and it opened again.
When I hit it, the barrier was immediately shattered. At the same time, I also fell straight down as the barrier was shattered. Yunjin reacted very quickly and turned sideways downward. I held my breath and was fully prepared, and finally fell down.
It fell on Yun Jin's back. It was just because I had no spiritual power at the moment that I fell. Yun Jin understood and adjusted his posture and speed slightly so that I could sit more steadily.
Before Yun Jin could turn around, he saw a purple-blue edge pass by Yun Jin, and I was shaken to the other side again. But I screamed in my heart.
Sure enough, the moment Yun Jin dodged, a figure formed a shape beside me. I felt my arm being grabbed again, and then, the familiar dizziness came over me again. The last impression left behind was
Cang Li also appeared soon after, but his face showed a bit of surprise that was rarely seen in the past.
Once again, I was taken away by a space spell. When I regained my clear vision, we had returned to the former coach's Shifu.
As soon as I turned my head, I saw his side face with a slightly angry look. He suddenly raised his head and shouted: "Ramp up the troops immediately and march into the Demon Sealing Valley!"
I naturally know why he suddenly ordered an attack on the Demon-Sealing Valley. It seems that he must have guessed Cang Li's identity during these two battles. Only by ordering an attack on the Demon-Sealing Valley can he distract Cang Li as quickly as possible, so that he will have no time.
Come to me.
After saying that, he suddenly tightened his grip on my arm and immediately pulled me into the Shifu.
I thought he would get angry, or throw me into the stone prison again in anger, or he would try his best to find out the answer he wanted from me. But unexpectedly, he just threw me into the house.
He sat down on the chair, and then he also sat down on the chair next to him.
He was silent for a long time, then breathed heavily, and then said: "In a moment, our army will arrive at the Demon Sealing Valley. If I go to war with the Demon Emperor, it will inevitably trigger the second fierce battle in the Demon Clan Civil War.
Everyone will suffer losses, and those who are fighting me today will certainly not be spared."
"What do you want to know?"
Seeing that I understood his intention, he turned to look at me and said solemnly: "Who are you? What is the origin of the crystal pendant you are wearing?"
I smiled slightly, but I couldn't tell the difference between happiness and sadness in my heart. Because I really didn't know how to explain it to him.
I clenched my fists and said, "It's not that I don't want to say it, but I really don't know how to say it." I paused and asked, "Then do you know who you are?"
When I asked him this question, he was indeed a little surprised, but then, from his eyes, there was a hint of sadness.
He stood up, took a few heavy steps, and said slowly: "At this moment, I really don't know who I am."
"Then, do you know where the other half of the crystal fell?"
Hearing this, he immediately turned his head and looked straight at me, with a mixture of emotions in his expression.
Immediately, he came over, pulled me up again, and said, "Follow me."
He took me all the way to the armory. With a wave of his hand, the heavy metal door suddenly opened on both sides. Shang He immediately came out, still with a flattering look on his face. When he saw me following him, he glanced at me.
, and then showed a look of fear.
"My lord, is this...could it be that Shi Lao has not served you well and dares to neglect you?"
He didn't respond, but took me directly in. Shang He was frightened behind him, frowning and winking at me, hoping that I would tell him what happened.
We went straight to the stone door without a door. He looked sideways at Shang He. Shang He was stunned for a moment, then he backed away obediently.
Then, he raised his arm and activated his spiritual power, and the stone door slowly opened.
He motioned for me to follow him in. I tilted my head and glanced at Shang He, who was waiting far away. Seeing that he was holding back his surprise and had a complicated look on his face, I suddenly felt a little funny. It turns out that no matter where you are, there will be people who follow others' influence.
I followed him into the door, and there was another long passage, but this passage went downwards and seemed to be connected to the mountain behind the armory. We went down the steps, and not long after, we came to a
There was a slightly spacious stone room, and the opposite side was no longer a stone wall, but a mountain wall without stones. He raised his hand to signal me to stop, and then injected a stream of spiritual power into the mountain wall, and then, the middle part of the mountain gradually became blurred.
When an arch came through, he stepped towards the cave again.
I followed his footsteps and entered the arch.
Immediately, our eyes were much brighter than before. We entered a relatively regular cave. There was nothing else in the cave. There was only a long box on one side of the stone. He walked to the box and slowly
Open the lid.
I walked closer, looked down, and was shocked.
What is placed in that box is a sword, and it is a sword used by mortals. There is a depression on the sword's head, and its shape is still a memory to me, even after all these years.
Still new. Next to the sword, lying quietly is a small object, which is a crystal hair pendant tied with a purple knot.
When I got closer, the crystal pendant glowed slightly with blue light. I lowered my head and found that the pendant on my chest had the same reaction.
He obviously saw this change, so he picked up the pendant and brought it to me. The two pendants shone at the same time, especially the cracked gap, which was almost white. It looked like,
If two crystals are put together, they can form one piece again.
"So, who are you? And who am I?"
"Are you serious, you have forgotten all this? Then why did you choose to enter the Demonic Realm?" I looked at the pendant in a daze, and involuntarily shed a tear.
I picked up the pendant from his hand, picked up the one on my chest with my other hand, and carefully placed the two crystals in the same palm. The light was stronger than before, and I couldn't open my eyes for a while.
I opened my eyes. When the light dissipated, I saw the person in front of me covering his head, with a look of pain on his face.
"What's wrong with you?" I saw that he seemed to be in great pain, staggered two steps and almost fell down, so I quickly stepped forward to support him.
He shook his head vigorously and murmured: "Yin... Luo..."
