Chapter 109 Chapter 109 "What is this used for...

"What is this used for?" a cultivator asked Li Qinglian.

"To purify your souls." Li Qinglian replied with a snort.

"When can it be used?" asked the immortal cultivator.

"Right away!" Li Qinglian waved at him, asking him to move aside. He walked around the formation and checked it. When he found that there was no problem, he began to add spirit stones into it.

After sufficient power was generated, the formation gradually lit up, flashed for a moment, and then went out. It looked like it was broken. The cultivators around were not quite sure what was going on, so they were startled.

"Isn't it rotten?"

"Can't?"

“Is there something wrong with the painting?”

They were chirping.

Li Qinglian waved at them, circled around again, checked again, confirmed that there were no problems, and said to them: "No mistakes, you will rest in this circle from now on, don't go out, and don't bring demons in. This formation is not good for them, and it will not be good for you if you go out. Your mental state is not right. Staying here will be good for you. Do you hear me?"

As he spoke, he took out a wooden sign and placed it on the edge of the formation. One side of the sign faced the cultivators inside and it read, "Do not leave at will." The other side faced the demons outside and it read, "Do not enter at will."

"It's almost done!" Li Qinglian clapped his hands, looking like he had accomplished something, and stood there, saying happily.

Before he could be happy for long, he suddenly received news and hurried to find Li Hanshuang.

"What's the matter?" Li Hanshuang had just dealt with a monster with heads all over its body. If he had time now, he would probably pull out the monster's heads one by one, but now the main purpose was to kill it, not for fun, so he solved it in one go and glanced at Li Qinglian who suddenly appeared.

Li Qinglian was a little surprised. He looked at the monster falling and asked, "Aren't there only bugs left, and no sealed ones?"

Li Hanshuang made a sound, as if he saw someone insisting on stuffing a poisonous mushroom into his mouth and claiming that it was not poisonous. He raised his sword, and suddenly a white light appeared between heaven and earth, and everyone closed their eyes.

After a moment, they opened their eyes and found that the insects around them had been cleared away, and the remaining sealed ones who were still in the air and preparing to leave had nowhere to hide.

Li Baili waved her hand, and the demons in the air rushed forward, dragging the sealed person who was about to slip away quickly to the spot.

Li Hanshuang held up his sword, looked at Li Qinglian and asked, "Do you think that if you can't see it, it means it doesn't exist?"

Li Baili walked to Li Hanshuang and stopped not far away.

Li Hanshuang smiled and said to Li Qinglian, "Besides, not all the sealed ones who escaped are dead. It's just that they didn't pass by here openly and attacked you, so you didn't notice them. If they wanted to cause trouble for you, you might not be able to react."

He paused, as if he felt that what he said was a bit too depressing, and looked at Li Baili.

Li Baili took two steps, approached Li Hanshuang, and said to Li Qinglian: "Those sealed ones are nearby, staying in the place where they were originally sealed. It just looks like they are not there on the surface. If they want to come, there will be as many as there are."

Li Qinglian suddenly felt that the happiness in her heart was taken away at once. She deflated like a deflated balloon and for a moment she almost forgot what she was going to say.

Li Hanshuang could only frown and remind him again, a little impatient, as if he had failed to close the door three times, and if he couldn't close it the last time, he would start to tear the door apart: "What's the matter?"

"There's news from Penglai," Li Qinglian came back to his senses with a frown and told the story, "There are many escaped sealed ones and a lot of bugs rushing in front of them, and they are about to break through the defense formation. I'm afraid they can't hold on.

The attack power of those things is too strong. Although they have defensive power, their defense cannot withstand the opponent's attack power. I am afraid they need disciples with offensive power."

"So," Li Qinglian hesitated, looked at Li Hanshuang, and whispered, "They hope that we can go back, or at least switch with them?"

Li Hanshuang gave him an ambiguous smile: "Go back? The immortal cultivator and you have gone back, so why should I stay here? If I leave too, only the demon and Li Baihe will be left on the Demon Island.

Tell me, is this a question of the destruction of the world? Or is it a question of the destruction of the demons? Otherwise, how about letting the demons join the sealed ones and the bugs? Maybe the speed of the destruction of the world can be faster?"

As Li Hanshuang spoke, he became more and more angry. He swung the sword in his hand and killed a sealed person who was trying to break through the siege nearby. A huge tiger corpse fell to the ground with a thud.

The demons that had just surrounded the sealed being quietly dispersed to help their other companions.

Li Qinglian shuddered, not knowing what she was thinking at the time. She tried to get away with it, like putting a mask on her face, pretending that she had become the object of the mask, and said with a fake smile: "Didn't I say no?"

Li Hanshuang was unceremonious, like an ice knife stabbing straight into the three-foot-three-inch thick snow, wishing to crack the ground as well, and sneered, "If you agree, I will die too."

"Then what do you think we should do about this?" Li Qinglian asked cautiously, as if she had accidentally lost the most valuable gold in her home in the snow and couldn't find it no matter how hard she looked.

Li Hanshuang thought about it and didn't say anything for a while. The expression on his face was the same as always, indifferent with a hint of sarcasm. It was hard to tell what he meant, but he didn't seem to want to help.

Li Qinglian looked at Li Baili next to her.

Li Baili stood next to Li Hanshuang. The willow branch on her wrist had grown out at some point and caught every insect around her, and tied them into green cocoons. She was tying up the wings and antennae of a bunch of insects and handing them to Li Baili. She even made a green plate out of the willow branches.

The green plate holding the wriggling bugs made them look like ingredients about to be fried in oil.

Li Baili pinched a bug that was tightly tied up with willow branches. Only the head of the bug was exposed at the top, with its eyes wide open. It looked very angry, and it made a squeaking sound while flapping its wings vigorously.

I don’t know if it was a mistake or intentional by Li Baili, but the insect squeaked and suddenly broke open, and some sticky liquid popped out.

The willow branch suddenly expanded into a leaf, swallowing the dead insect's body. It trembled and gurgled for a while, then returned to its original size and tried to rub Li Baili's fingers.

A dry cough came out of Li Baili's throat. The leaf froze for a moment, then slowly retracted, moving along the branch little by little to the farthest position.

Then the leaf grew huge and blew away a large number of insects.

Although more insects emerged from the sea below, at that moment, there was not a single insect in the sky.

Li Baili noticed the look Li Qinglian was looking at her, so she took her hand back and smiled at him like a furry gray cat that had just emerged from under the stove: "If you want to change it, just change it. It's not that great, but it's better than nothing, right?"

Li Baili looked at Li Hanshuang. Li Hanshuang raised her eyebrows slightly, then came to her senses. It was like standing at someone else's doorstep, watching others set off firecrackers. She smiled and said, "It's all right."

Li Qinglian silently looked away.

It feels like no matter what Li Baili says, Li Hanshuang will say it's all right, because he doesn't care what others say, nor does he care what Li Baili says, he just obeys Li Baili.

That kind of obedience is not the obedience of subordinates to their superiors, nor the obedience of slaves to their masters, or the obedience of juniors to their elders, but an unconditional, surprising and even a little frightening obedience, as if one were obeying oneself.

It was as if she was listening to her heart! But why would Li Hanshuang's heart be with Li Baili? Li Hanshuang didn't look like someone who had been controlled.

For some reason, when Li Qinglian looked at them, she felt as if she was looking at a tyrant and a beauty. They were so well-matched, as if they had been together in their previous life. This shocked Li Qinglian.

His eyelids twitched twice, as if warning him not to think too much!

"What's your opinion?" Li Baili looked at Li Qinglian and asked.

Li Qinglian came back to her senses and quickly replied, "They are a good match!"

Before he finished speaking, Li Qinglian quickly slapped himself on the mouth, pretending that he hadn't said anything just now. He spoke at a tongue twister-like speed, without changing his expression, and said again: "Then I will arrange it?"

"What are your plans?" Li Hanshuang looked at him like this and had no intention of pursuing the matter. She wondered what the two words he had just blurted out meant, but asked with a little concern.

Li Qinglian replied, "I will let the disciples with stronger attack power return to Penglai first. After resolving the crisis over there, I will exchange the same number of disciples with them and let those with better defense power come over."

He suddenly hesitated when he said this: "There was no problem on the road when I came here, but if Penglai is attacked and the formation is about to be broken, what if the disciples here die on the road?"

"If I can't win in the fight, can't I run away?" Li Hanshuang sighed.

"If Penglai has been surrounded, how are they going to get in?" Li Qinglian scratched his head.

"Then let's pick one person from among us?" Li Hanshuang raised his eyebrows.

"If that's the case, that would be great. The battle here is not as intense as before," Li Qinglian said hesitantly, "but I don't know who will go?"

"Who do you think is more suitable to go?" Li Hanshuang asked.

Li Qinglian thought about it and decided that in terms of attack power, it must be Li Hanshuang, and in terms of defense power, it must be Li Baili.
