Chapter 73 Chapter 73 Who is his wife?
The moment the two entered the gap, it closed quietly as expected.
The gap was extremely dark, and one could not see one's hand in front of one's face. The little light also disappeared as the two stepped in.
Bi Qing was at a loss for words: "Why didn't you find another way to trick us in?"
“It’s not a lie.”
Xuan Yi stared into the darkness. "Yes, please."
Such a dark environment was perfect for sneak attacks, but Xuan Yi didn't sense the slightest hint of murderous intent.
"Please let us in?" Biqing asked in disbelief.
This was the first time she had seen guests being entertained in this way.
Biqing's eyes flashed, and she politely saluted: "I am Biqing from the Xiaoxiang clan. I hope you will show yourself to meet me."
"Why is it a god? I hate gods the most."
The man's disgusted voice echoed in the dark environment, and the lingering sound was like ripples on the surface of a lake, lingering for a long time.
Hearing the man's disgusted words, Biqing's heart started pounding and she didn't dare to say anything more.
A soothing pat on the back of her hand made Biqing look at Xuan Yi helplessly. Before she could even utter an apology, she heard Xuan Yi say, "Xuan Yi, leader of the wolf demon clan, apologizes on behalf of my wife, Senior. I didn't realize you hated immortals so much. We have rashly come to offend you, and we hope you will forgive us."
Biqing's heart beat faster, and she felt dizzy with shyness. She didn't hear a word of what Xuan Yi said next.
Who is his wife?
How can you say such things so easily?
The current situation did not allow Biqing to refute. She bit her lower lip and adjusted her rapid breathing.
"Are you a demon?"
The man's voice rose at the end, sounding like he had encountered something extremely interesting.
"Yeah. I'm a demon."
Xuan Yi responded frankly.
Suddenly, a figure appeared before his eyes. Xuan Yi frowned slightly and stared at the transparent shadow in front of him.
Like crystal glass in the dark night, Xuan Yi could only see a rough outline.
The silhouette circled around Xuan Yi and Bi Qing, stopping in front of Bi Qing for a moment and chuckled, "Can a demon be with a god?"
The outline was so transparent that even the hair was transparent. Biqing tried hard to search in her mind, wondering if she had ever seen such a god or monster in any book.
But the silhouette said: "Don't think about it, you haven't seen me."
He said, "I have lived here for ten thousand years, and besides you, only Zi Teng and her husband have seen me once."
"That couple is truly annoying," the silhouette sneered. "The Celestial Realm sent them to guard this place. What business is it of mine? They had to come and pay their respects hypocritically, saying those polite words and disturbing my peace."
Biqing was stunned. She didn't expect that the mysterious man in front of her would be a god.
The man flashed before Xuan Yi and looked him over carefully. "You must be only a thousand years old, right? Little wolf cub, why did you come to such a dangerous place?"
Xuan Yi hated the man's address to him. Thinking about the artifact, Xuan Yi endured it and said with a forced smile, "For my people."
The man was amazed: "You have a strong sense of responsibility."
Xuan Yi didn't want to argue with him any further, so he explained his purpose directly: "The water source in the demon world is being corroded by foul air, and I'm here in search of a divine artifact to purify it. Senior, please lend me your artifact to save the lives of my people."
"You, a demon, are asking a deity to borrow a divine weapon. Are you crazy?"
The man sneered: "Your people have nothing to do with me."
Bi Qing couldn't stand the man's sarcasm and asked harshly, "Why did you trick me and Xuan Yi into coming here?"
The shadow lingering around her suddenly became less transparent: "You were the ones who insisted on coming in."
The man was dressed in white and had a handsome face, but his brows revealed an inexplicable cruelty that made people feel extremely uncomfortable.
The man raised his hands, and Biqing and Xuanyi saw them clearly: although the hands had palms and five fingers, they were transparent.
It looks like crystal or diamond.
The man held a stone flower in his palm. "I let my babies out to see the world, but you took the opportunity to sneak into the heart of this mountain. You even have the audacity to claim that I invited you in."
"I'm not going to kill you, but you're shouting here."
The man crushed the flowers in his palm and stared at Biqing with a cold look: "Disgusting."
Biqing had heard harsher words than this.
I was too weak at that time. Even if I talked back, I couldn't gain the upper hand. In the end, I could only be bullied.
The unbearable memories of childhood came flooding back like a hurricane, blowing the blood in Biqing's body into a turmoil like ocean waves.
"Ignore him, let's go."
Xuan Yi's gentle voice sounded beside her ears, reminding Bi Qing that things were different now.
Xuan Yi glanced at the man, then turned around without looking back, leading Bi Qing. "What a waste of time."
"You disturbed my sweet dream and you still want to leave?"
The man raised the corner of his mouth and grinned: "Little wolf, you look in good shape."
Countless transparent sword blades circled around the man: "If your real body were made into an ornament, it would definitely be very pleasing to the eye!"
Sword blades flew towards Xuan Yi and Bi Qing in all directions like rain.
The two were well prepared. Biqing raised her hand and created a barrier to block the transparent sword blades that were shining with brilliance.
The sword blade pierced the barrier, and the sound sounded different from that of an ordinary iron sword. It was more like a fragile crystal being shattered, making a crackling sound.
"You're taking advantage of your age! How shameless!"
Biqing pointed the tip of her sword directly at the man and shouted angrily, "It's fine if you refuse to help Xuan Yi, but you actually call him a little wolf cub! Who are you to him?!"
The man smiled playfully, "This is the first time I've seen a god protecting monsters. But..."
"I want to see how capable you are, little girl."
He summoned a transparent crystal sword and slashed at the barrier in front of him.
The man's murderous aura was like a raging wave. The moment he raised his hand, Biqing's heart trembled.
Seeing that the sword was about to hit the barrier, Biqing and Xuanyi flew out and spread out to both sides.
The sharp sword energy split the barrier, lifted the corners of the two people's clothes, and blocked their sight.
Biqing could feel a murderous aura through the clothes. Without time to think, her body instinctively leaned back and rolled over to dodge.
The sword energy passed along her back.
With a "swish", Biqing felt a chill on her back.
"Biqing!"
Xuan Yi summoned his sword upon hearing the noise, quickly locked onto the man's position, and slashed at him without hesitation.
The man smiled and disappeared into the dark crevice in the blink of an eye: "Little wolf, that's not how you use a sword."
Xuan Yi ignored his words and hurried to Biqing's side.
Xuan Yi's heart relaxed a little when he could no longer smell the scent of blood. He turned to look at Bi Qing's clothes and asked, "Where are you hurt?"
Before Biqing could respond, Xuan Yi felt a chill on his back, followed by a huge force in front of him, pushing him aside.
Biqing created a barrier to block the crystal sword that was about to attack Xuan Yi. "Xuan Yi, find a way out!"
"Naive." The man's voice sounded in the darkness.
A black shadow emerged from the long sword, startling both Biqing and Xuanyi.
A meteorite iron sword emerged from the crystal sword.
The tip of the Meteorite Sword turned and rushed towards Xuan Yi rapidly.
Biqing frowned, and a stream of spiritual power shot out and wrapped around the black sword, reminding Xuanyi where the sword was.
The meteorite sword that was flying towards Xuan Yi sensed Biqing's spiritual power, turned the sword body, and raised it upwards, actually dispersing that spiritual power.
That bit of spiritual power dissipated for a moment, then gathered together again and took advantage of the momentum to fall onto the blade of the crystal sword.
Biqing raised her wrist and eliminated the barrier in front of her.
At the moment of collision with the crystal sword, a spark was produced, sending the crystal sword flying.
The crystal sword turned twice and landed several feet away from Biqing, attacking her again.
Biqing saw anger from the long sword, and a strong wind came from her waist. Biqing jumped up and dodged by stepping on the sword spine of the crystal long sword.
Bi Qing used the force to move further, to prevent the sword from entangling Xuan Yi. She reminded Xuan Yi, "Be very careful."
She was answered with a low "I know".
The crystal sword caught up with Biqing again, and Biqing dodged nimbly.
One man and one sword, fighting in the darkness.
Recalling that all the swords that attacked the barrier were shattered into pieces, Biqing was sure that as long as she cut off the long sword in front of her, she would be able to escape.
Biqing saw the right moment and flung the crystal sword into the air. She dodged in front of the sword and swung it to cut it off.
Unexpectedly, the man suddenly appeared behind the crystal sword and curled his lips at him: "He is quite agile."
Such pure spiritual power, just like...
The moment Biqing was stunned, the man grasped the crystal sword and stabbed her heart fiercely. "It's a pity that immortals don't leave their true bodies after death. Otherwise, I would make you into a decoration, so that you can both be happy."
The tip of the sword was close at hand, and the cold light was reflected in Biqing's eyes.
The smell of blood filled the air and reached Xuan Yi's nose.
Xuan Yi's body trembled violently.
Rather than being careful himself, Xuan Yi was more worried that Biqing would be injured by the long sword.
Saber techniques are very different from sword techniques, but Xuan Yi can more or less wield a long sword using saber techniques.
What's more, he can see at night, but Biqing can't.
The strong smell of blood disturbed Xuan Yi's mind, and he called out in a lost voice, "Biqing!"
There was dead silence.
The golden-blue mandarin duck eyes were suddenly bloodshot. Xuan Yi did not stop for a moment, following the smell of blood to find Biqing.
There was a sound of breaking wind in front of him, and Xuan Yi turned sideways to dodge the meteorite sword that was heading straight for his heart.
"Take my life?" Xuan Yi summoned his longsword and slashed at the Meteorite Sword. "You're dreaming!"
"Dream?"
The man suddenly appeared behind the meteorite sword. He grasped the sword and said with a smile, "I haven't had a dream in a long time."
Xuan Yi had no time to pay attention to the nonsense of the man in front of him. He knew very well that if he couldn't get rid of this man in front of him, he would not be able to find Biqing.
The longer he delayed, the more danger Biqing would be in and the closer she would be to death.
"Angry?"
The man sneered, "A monster is a monster. It can't do anything."
Xuan Yi's eyes were filled with coldness as he drew his sword and attacked him.
The man calmly took Xuan Yi's chopping blow and said, "I told you, that's not how you use a sword."
The man twisted his wrist, intertwining his two swords. Using Xuan Yi's strength, he flung the longsword out of his hand. "You can't even hold your sword steady, you can't even protect yourself, and you still dream of saving your entire clan?"
Xuan Yi didn't answer, but controlled his demonic power to pull back the flying sword.
The long sword fell back into his palm. Xuan Yi stared closely at the man in front of him, not daring to relax even a little bit.
The smell of blood in the air reminded Xuan Yi that time was passing by every second.
Biqing's life was fading away bit by bit.
"I forgot to tell you." The man chuckled, "Demons can retain their true bodies after death, but gods can't."
"Life and death together, that's a story among the same clan. You two, ah, are just empty talk."
"It's just empty talk."
Xuan Yi's eyes were bloodshot, and blue demonic power burst out from his body, enveloping his entire body.
Xuan Yi had long, sharp fangs that protruded from his lips. He had a pair of wolf ears on his head and a tail growing out of his back.
Xuan Yi opened his lips, his voice unusually hoarse, "Biqing and I won't die. The one who will die is you."
