Chapter 27 What is he?

Last time, Feng Mingye disguised himself and entered the secret realm of Tianxuan Sect to pollute the array eye. He thought that the spirit of the Three Realms was inside, and that obtaining the demonic energy would make things much easier. However, he still did not find any useful clues.

Feng Mingye sent people from the Demon Realm to inquire and learned that there was a magical artifact in the palace that could supposedly guide people and guide them to whatever they wanted.

Regardless of whether it was true or not, Feng Mingye became interested and was determined to get his hands on it.

It was only after arriving at the palace that he truly understood what purple aura was, to the point that he was completely unable to kill anyone. He could only weave a nightmare to haunt the old emperor every day, making him think that something evil was behind it.

However, someone took advantage of the chaos and actually cooperated with this play to kill several people, making the tale of vengeful spirits in the palace seem increasingly real.

Feng Mingye did not intend to take the old emperor's life. There was a Ziwei Dragon Vein in the palace. As long as he depleted the dragon vein, he could obtain the magic weapon.

So he deliberately hinted to the old emperor that as long as the Ziwei Dragon Vein was used as bait, the entire cultivation world would come to deal with the matter.

The plan was initially well-conceived, but unexpectedly, all those who came were useless. They were scared away before even entering the palace gates. The few who had the courage could only conclude that it was a vengeful spirit seeking revenge, and could not see anything else.

For the first time, Feng Mingye felt resentment towards his status as the second-best cultivator in the world. He used to hate being second to others, but now that he had witnessed the demeanor of the number one, he felt at ease accepting his second place.

Unexpectedly, Su Yunyu appeared this time, and he actually wanted the Ziwei Dragon Vein.

Regardless of its intended use, Feng Mingye thought he could offer it up with both hands...

*

This dream lasted for a very long time. When the palace servants protecting the emperor saw that his obese body was trembling uncontrollably and that large beads of sweat were rolling down his forehead, and that they could not wake him up no matter what they did, they almost thought that he was about to die.

Fortunately, the old emperor woke up. Upon opening his eyes, he saw several palace servants showing concern for his well-being, and his face immediately contorted with terror. He screamed:

"You are not allowed to kill me! You bunch of castrated dogs, you are not allowed to kill me!"

It seems the trauma from the dream left a deep scar.

When Su Yunyu reappeared in the main hall, Xiao Shuying glanced around without showing any emotion and found that she was not injured, but her chest was heaving, as if she was experiencing some kind of emotion.

This was the first time Xiao Shuying had ever seen someone so calm and composed exhibit such obvious emotional fluctuations. Her heart sank, and she asked:

"Master, what did you see?"

Su Yunyu gets angry whenever this is mentioned.

In my dream, I showed him a tragic drama, and told him it was fake, but then I said at the end that it was real.

Is it really interesting to mix truth and falsehood?

He was so heartbroken for that child in his dream, and as for whether it was Feng Mingye or not, he couldn't be bothered to investigate further.

Hearing this, he suppressed his displeasure and quietly replied:

“I saw Feng Mingye.”

Xiao Shuying's gaze deepened, as if deep in thought:

Why did he do that?

Before Su Yunyu could ponder or speculate, the old emperor in the hall recovered from his shock. He first glared fiercely at the palace servants, then noticed Su Yunyu wearing a mask. Suddenly remembering something, his eyes darted around, and he asked:

"May I remove my mask, Your Excellency? I do not wish to make deals with someone who hides their true identity."

"..."

Su Yunyu didn't understand what was going on.

Logically speaking, shouldn't the culprit be apprehended quickly?

Xiao Shuying's expression darkened slightly. On one hand, she mocked the old emperor for not knowing what was important, and on the other hand, she worried that Su Yunyu really wanted to treat people with sincerity.

For some reason, he didn't want anyone else to see Su Yunyu's true face.

He even wished he could replace the blue-faced, fanged mask in his own space with the one he had in his own space, so that people would be too scared to look at him again after just one glance.

Just as Su Yunyu remained silent, the old emperor narrowed his eyes impatiently, thinking about what the person in red in the dream had said, such as the words "the most beautiful woman in the world".

He had clearly seen all the beauties in the world, and that woman in red was already a rare beauty, yet he still said that he was blind and couldn't see the most beautiful woman in the world.

The old emperor's life was temporarily out of danger, and his infatuation with beautiful women rekindled, so he immediately urged:

"What, are you perhaps afraid to show your true face?"

While inwardly cursing the old emperor's inevitable demise, Su Yunyu slowly removed her mask—

The old emperor immediately leaned forward, eager to see what the most beautiful woman in the world was, only to find an ordinary face beneath the mask.

This so-called "most beautiful woman in the world" is probably just someone bluffing him!

"..."

The old emperor's face was gloomy.

"..."

Xiao Shuying chuckled inwardly, thinking that he wasn't too stupid.

The hall was silent for a moment. Su Yunyu felt smug, thinking that everyone should be satisfied now. Just as she was about to speak about the mastermind behind it all, a knocking sound came from the latticed window.

The old emperor immediately forgot his anger and looked behind the three-tiered, six-bowl window at the latticework window. He saw a shadowy red figure and immediately recognized it as the person from his dream.

Realizing this, his obese body trembled instantly. Finally remembering the danger to his life, all traces of arrogance vanished. He frantically ordered Su Yunyu two things:

"Quickly, catch him!"

Even without him saying it, Su Yunyu knew that the red figure was Feng Mingye.

I just didn't expect that he usually only appears in dreams, so why did he suddenly show his real form now?

Without a second thought, Su Yunyu simply flew out to chase after her. The people in the hall could only see her white-clad figure transform into a fleeting shadow and fly away, like a snowflake in flight.

The old emperor then pondered, feeling that the plain-looking face was unworthy of such elegance. When a palace attendant asked for his permission, he finally spoke with confidence:

"Chase!"

As they gradually tried to give chase, the palace servants heard a deafening noise from the Imperial Garden. Several elegantly dressed concubines rushed out, saying:

"A vengeful spirit! A vengeful spirit has come to claim my life!"

When they caught up with them to the Imperial Garden, sure enough, there were two figures, one in red and one in white, facing each other in a large open space.

Su Yunyu asked several questions, but Feng Mingye didn't answer. He just floated there like a spirit, with an indescribable smile in his eyes.

Annoyed by his ambiguous gaze, Su Yunyu drew his sword and attacked. Unlike his usual earth-grade sword used to conceal his identity, he dared not be careless this time and directly summoned the Snow Blossom Sword.

The crowd was suddenly greeted by a burst of bright sunlight, the clouds vanished, and a chill swept over them, accompanied by the rustling sound of swords flashing—

The woman in red merely responded passively, dodging the overwhelming sword intent, and never took the initiative to attack.

Even Su Yunyu couldn't understand what he was doing. He deliberately lured her out, but instead of properly determining the winner, what was the difference between this and playing a 1v1 game where the opponent just stood there and started a fight?

Seeing that he had already removed his mask, revealing an ordinary-looking face, Feng Mingye chuckled softly:

"The Immortal Venerable is truly stingy with his appearance, unwilling to even show his true face to others."

Having said that, he leaped forward, unleashing his demonic energy. He didn't even draw his weapon. Su Yunyu immediately sensed his intention and tried to block him, but she was a fraction too late—

There was no injury on his body; the only change was that his disguise technique was gone.

"..."

Hearing the faint gasps beside her ear, and sensing the old emperor's lecherous gaze without even looking, Su Yunyu bit her lip, speechless.

What exactly do you want?

Last time too, I smashed his mask.

As before, he removed his disguise.

Wait a minute, so determined to reveal your true colors...

Su Yunyu suddenly realized, and looking at Feng Mingye who was passively resisting, she said confidently:

"You're not jealous that I'm more beautiful than you, are you?"

"..."

Feng Mingye's elegant figure stiffened for a moment, his smile unusually halting. He then looked at Su Yunyu incredulously, until Su Yunyu was furious before he covered his mouth and burst into laughter.

"Not necessarily above me."

"..."

Su Yunyu vented her anger on 111 in her sea of ​​consciousness:

"The villains in the original story are all so deserving of a beating."

System: [Honey, don't get yourself involved in this!]

Xiao Shuying arrived a few steps late, having gone to the wrong place. She thought the curtain should have already fallen, but to her surprise, she saw Su Yunyu and Feng Mingye standing side by side, Feng Mingye even smiling, and Su Yunyu staring directly at her. A chill ran through her.

This is how they started making faces.

Su Yunyu, do you seem to be able to take a liking to anyone? It was like that with Xiao Qingran in your first life, and this time…

Wait, the person in the first life is not the person in front of you.

He's confused things again.

Even so, seeing this scene before her, especially with Su Yunyu's disguise gone and the people's drooling eyes, Xiao Shuying was filled with resentment and added fuel to the fire:

"Master, don't let the demons escape!"

Seeing that Xiao Shuying seemed to be urging him to finish the battle quickly, Su Yunyu ignored Feng Mingye's banter and thrust her sword straight at his heart.

Who knew that Feng Mingye would not dodge at all, but would just go to his death like this, causing Su Yunyu's sword to tremble and unknowingly deviate from its position.

Seeing this, Feng Mingye smiled confidently:

"You wouldn't dare kill someone."

"..."

Upon hearing these words, Xiao Shuying's eyes turned icy.

It doesn't matter if Su Yunyu doesn't dare to kill them; he will kill all these troublesome people in the future.

Having already experienced Su Yunyu's "compassion," Xiao Shuying drew her Mu Ling sword and leaped forward, deliberately shouting:

"Master, I'm here to help you!"

Upon hearing this, Feng Mingye's gaze swept coldly over, and seeing the cold glint in Xiao Shuying's eyes, he was first taken aback, thinking to himself that this was quite unusual, but so what? Before this person could grow up, he would be the first to nip him in the bud.

The reason I killed Xiao Shuying in the past was that she must have extraordinary abilities to become Su Yunyu's disciple, so I had to kill her first to prevent future troubles.

Now, in addition to the previous reasons, there is another reason why Xiao Shuying wants to be killed: why does this good-for-nothing have the right to become Su Yunyu's disciple?

Seeing Feng Mingye's murderous aura, Su Yunyu immediately sensed danger. This time, she reacted with utmost speed, thrusting her sword at Feng Mingye as he swung his demonic chains, this time aiming straight for his heart—

Feng Mingye looked down in surprise and saw that his heart had been pierced. He unconsciously vomited a mouthful of blood, and his already ethereal soul became even more transparent.

He was only surprised for a second, then chuckled softly:

"I misjudged you; I never intended to beat you anyway."

Seeing that his situation was hopeless, and knowing that he had only killed a distracted Su Yunyu, he didn't feel much pressure and simply smiled calmly upon hearing this.

"I just don't kill innocent people, but you are not innocent."

Hearing this, Xiao Shuying, who was holding Mu Ling's hand, suddenly raised her eyes to scrutinize every inch of Su Yunyu's expression, trying to see whether he was sincere or not.

But upon closer inspection, Xiao Shuying realized that the man was not faking it. She was stunned, and before she knew it, her sword had fallen to the ground.

If he doesn't kill innocent people, then what is Xiao Shuying?
