Chapter 294: The sky is blue and the underworld is dark, both are indistinct

"shut up!"

Xiao Nanyue roared, and suddenly swung the Jinghong Sword to hit Helian Feng's sword. The force was so great that Helian Feng's body was shocked and retreated several steps.

"Xiao Nanyan, do you think I don't know your plan? My mother said Xiao Beicheng used Xiyan as bait in exchange for the military token. I knew that you, a heartless person, would not sincerely save her!"

Xiao Nanyan's whole body trembled slightly, his eyes were red:

"Su Qinyao? Did she tell you that Xiao Beicheng only allowed me to come here, otherwise he would kill Xiyan?"

"What?" Helian Feng's eyes trembled slightly.

"Helian Feng, you really have a good mother!"

When Xiao Nanyan saw Helian Feng's confused look, he knew that it was Su Qinyao's doing. At this moment, he wished he could tear her into pieces.

But at the moment, he didn't believe that Xiyan would die here. What he thought was that as long as this mechanism was opened, he would go down and rescue her.

"Helian Feng, if you have any sincerity towards Xi Yan, then stop talking nonsense and help me find the mechanism as soon as possible!"

Xiao Nanyue looked like a madman, no longer paying attention to Helian Feng, and was madly searching for the mechanism in the dark room.

Even if Helian Feng hated Xiao Nanyue, he didn't want Xiyan to really die. He held a long sword and knocked around in the dark room, looking for something suspicious.

At this moment, the accident happened:

The stone door of the dark room creaked loudly and was suddenly sealed!

Xiao Beicheng's laughter came through the crack in the door, mixed with the pungent smell of tung oil:

"Xiao Nanyan, Helian Feng, I never thought that the two of you would die here today for a woman. I have already set the main hall on fire. In less than half an incense stick of time, the gunpowder in the dark room will explode. You can only wait for your destruction!"

Before he could finish his words, there were crackling sounds outside the hall, and tongues of flame licked in through the cracks in the door. The shadows of Xiao Nanyue and Helian Feng were reflected on the stone wall of the Buddha statue, distorted like ghosts.

Helian Feng took a half step back in shock, his back hitting the stone wall. At this moment, he also forgot about the grudge with Xiao Nanyan and exclaimed:

“He really spilled tung oil!”

In an instant, thick smoke filled the air, choking him and causing him to cough violently.

Xiao Nanyue seemed not to hear it and continued to smash the stone slab where Xiyan fell with the hilt of the sword, until his knuckles were worn into a bloody mess.

However, once the mechanism below is locked, the stone slab is several inches thick, how can human power do anything about it?

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of metal clashing outside the hall, mixed with the roar of Han Xiao:

"Xiao Beicheng, quickly open the secret door and release my prince!"

Then came Mo Ren's voice: "Xiao Beicheng, give me your life!"

Suddenly, Manluo's voice rang out sharply: "Old thing, give me back my Xiyan, or I'll fight you!"

For a moment, in the hall outside the dark room, the sounds of swords clashing, kerosene burning, and bricks collapsing mixed together, and the temperature in the dark room rose sharply.

Helian Feng's vision was darkened by the thick smoke. Just when he was in despair, a skylight suddenly appeared on the roof, which was more than three meters high. The sunlight mixed with fresh air poured in.

Helian Feng didn't have time to think about it, he jumped up with a tip of his toes, but the moment he flipped out of the skylight, he subconsciously turned back -

Xiao Nanyue was still kneeling on the ground, digging into the cracks in the stone slab with his fingernails, trying desperately to lift it up.

Helian Feng knew that this place would explode soon. Although he wanted to save Xiyan, he knew that the mechanism had been destroyed by Xiao Beicheng and he was powerless to save the situation. Even if he lost his life here, Xiyan would not come back, so he had to leave quickly.

Just as Helian Feng left, a man in yellow clothes jumped into the dark room. It was Fu Yunqing.

He stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Nanyan's sleeve, trying to lift him up:

"Nan Yan, you're looking for death! This place is about to explode!"

"I won't leave!"

Xiao Nanyan threw Fu Yunqing away, his eyes red from the smoke, pointing at the stone slab and roaring:

"Get out of here right now! I'm going to pick up Yanyan and the child and take them with me!"

His voice was hysterical: "I promised her that I would take her out..."

Fu Yunqing was furious and slapped Xiao Nanyan hard:

"Confused! Nan Yan, you've always been calm, why are you so confused this time? Listen outside, Han Xiao Mo Ren and the others are risking their lives for you, Man Luo is pregnant, yet she still has to use poison to deal with Xiao Beicheng. This place is about to explode, do you want them to be shattered with you?"

Xiao Nanyue heard the sound of metal clashing outside the hall, and his body began to tremble violently.

Fu Yunqing's words hit his heart like a heavy hammer, and the responsibilities that had been hidden by grief and regret suddenly became clear:

He is the regent, the backbone of countless death warriors and the Xiao family army, and the person his mother protects with her life.

"And me!" Seeing Xiao Nanyan's eyes loosen, Fu Yunqing shouted angrily:

"I'm still a virgin, I haven't even touched a woman yet, but I don't want to go to hell with a love-struck person like you!"

Fu Yunqing's insults woke Xiao Nanyue up like a thunderbolt.

He took one last look at the cold stone slab and uttered a cry from his throat like a trapped animal:

"Walk!"

As he spoke, he pulled Fu Yunqing's sleeve and the two of them jumped out of the skylight.

At the same time, Fu Yunqing also sent a signal, asking Manluo and the others to evacuate as soon as possible.

They had only run a hundred steps when a deafening roar came from the dark room behind them.

Then it collapsed with a loud bang, completely burying the dark pit. Blue-gray bricks and stones rushed into the sky like a rainstorm, carrying burning tung oil and smashing into the air.

The entire main hall of Feiyun Temple was now spewing out scarlet flames, with thick smoke billowing and flames boiling.

Xiao Nanyue turned around suddenly and saw the century-old temple being gradually engulfed in fire. Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his heart as if his lungs were being torn apart.

Looking at the pillar of fire rising into the sky, the fragments of my time with Xi Yan appeared before my eyes one by one:

Eight years ago, on the streets of Nanzhao, that brave girl pulled his arm and begged him to take her away;

For eight years, the cold beauty who ground ink for him, stood in the palace for him, and fought for him in battle, was the only warm color in his poisonous schemes.

He and she were entangled every night, wishing to keep her by his side all the time;

He tried to wrap up his greedy possession with coldness and hardness, but the stubborn soul that he wanted to rub into his bones and blood has now turned into wisps of smoke and disappeared.

The sky is blue and the underworld is dark, both are vast and invisible.

She finally took the most cruel revenge on him with her utter determination.

He slowly stretched out his hand, but only caught sparks flying in the sky.

"Xiyan!"

This desperate cry seemed to tear the red sky apart.

Then, a mouthful of bright red blood gushed out from Xiao Nanyue's throat!
