Chapter 90 One Step Forward, Death

Tang Xiaoyun was pressed down by Fusheng, and she stretched out her wet tongue to lick his face, making him giggle.

Hearing his words, Tang Xiaoyun gasped: "This is in the north, it's normal to snow...Haha, oh stinky dog, stop licking!"

Fusheng has grown too big now, and Tang Xiaoyun can't push it away with just the strength he has.

"Hmm?" Tan Tai Lie's cold eyes swept towards Fu Sheng.

"Oh, oh, oh..." Fusheng was so scared that his ears drooped and he got off Tang Xiaoyun obediently.

Tan Tai Lie then extended his hand and said gently, "Come, I'll pull you up."

Tang Xiaoyun's face flushed slightly, not knowing whether it was because of the cold or the heat. She gently placed her hand in Tan Tai Lie's palm and suddenly curled her lips into a smile.

The next second, he pulled hard, and Tan Tai Lie rushed straight towards Tang Xiaoyun without any defense, and the two immediately gave each other an intimate hug in the snow.

However, he underestimated the weight of Tan Tai Lie, who pressed him so hard that he couldn't breathe: "You, get up first..."

"hehe…"

Tan Tai Lie chuckled, turned over, and lay flat on the snow with him, looking up at the sky.

Tang Xiaoyun stretched out his hand and made a couple of inverted eights toward the sky, a smile playing on his lips as he said, "That's great! I wish it could stay like this forever."

What a pity! I’m afraid I won’t be able to see such a beautiful view again.

He knew very well that sacrificing essence and blood might not be difficult for others, but for him, an ordinary person with no cultivation, it could be fatal.

When Tan Tai Lie heard this, his body trembled. The words "Then don't force it" were stuck in his mouth. He wanted to say it but was afraid of hurting his feelings.

System: [Pooh, pooh, pooh! What unlucky words are you saying so early in the morning? With the boss here, you won't die.]

"Yeah, what if? What if I die? What will the big devil do alone?"

He turned his head to look at Tan Tai Lie, but his eyes met his. That look was filled with deep love, reluctance, and a deep sense of powerlessness.

system:【……】

"Xiaoyun, I..."

"Oh, it's a shame to just lie there in the snow. Come, I'll teach you how to write."

Tang Xiaoyun interrupted Tan Tai Lie, turned over and sat up, picked up a branch, and wrote and drew on the snow.

Tan Tai Lie was curious about what he had written, so he took a closer look and saw that the characters were ones he didn't recognize.

"What is this word?" asked Tan Tai Lie.

"Tang, Xiao, Yun, these are simplified characters, different from the characters you usually write," he explained.

Tan Tai Lie stared at the three words "Tang Xiaoyun" and memorized them deeply in his mind: It turned out that this simplified Chinese character was used in their place.

"Oh, and this..." Tang Xiaoyun said as he wrote the three words "Tan Tai Lie" after the three words "Tang Xiaoyun".

"Hey, this is your name, do you remember it?"

"Um……"

Next to their names, he wrote another sentence in English. Tan Tai Lie looked at the crooked, oddly shaped characters and asked, "Is this also simplified Chinese?"

"Hmm..." He held up a finger and shook it, saying, "This is English. It usually applies to relationships like yours."

As he spoke, he leaned close to Tan Tai Lie's ear and whispered softly, "Tan Tai Lie, I love you."

Tan Tai Lie was confused, "What does this mean?"

Tang Xiaoyun knew that he didn't understand, so she pointed to the English words in the snow and explained, "I love you means I love you. It's usually a sentence used by lovers to express their love. Come on, say it to me again, I love you..."

After knowing the meaning of this English sentence, Tan Tai Lie blushed for the first time, "I, I love you...?"

"Well, that's very well said." Tang Xiaoyun hugged Tan Tai Lie, rested his head on his shoulder, and said with a melancholy tone: "Big devil, don't forget me..."

Hearing this, Tan Tai Lie felt a pain in his heart, and his hands hidden in his sleeves slowly clenched. If possible, he would rather not recover his skills for the rest of his life.

He was willing to stay with him until old age.

The scene of the two of them sitting on the ground hugging each other is so beautiful. If no one disturbs them, it will be a perfect picture.

However, large snowflakes floated down from the sky and landed on their heads.

Tang Xiaoyun reached out to catch the snowflakes, and when he looked up, he saw that the snowflakes were all over Tan Tai Lie's head. He suddenly curled his lips and smiled: "So, we can finally grow old together."

This made him satisfied, and he would be willing to die even if asked to do so now.

Tan Tai Lie secretly tightened his arms around him, the pain in his heart was no less than Tang Xiaoyun's: Xiaoyun, don't worry, I will never let you die.

"Master! We are back!"

The sound of footsteps on the snow came from far away, and Baichuan and Ye Lan came back.

The two separated, and a hint of disappointment flashed across Tan Tai Lie's eyes. Tang Xiaoyun asked anxiously, "Did you get the things?"

"Yes, I got it." Bai Chuan said, taking out the blood Ganoderma lucidum and black ice jade from his arms.

"Great, now all we need is the Netherworld Heart Lotus..."

"Hasn't the mountain eagle come back yet?"

As he was speaking, the voice of the mountain eagle came over: "I'm coming, I got delayed on the way."

"Where is the Earth Heart Lotus?" Tang Xiaoyun asked.

The next second, Shanying took off the bag behind him. When he opened it, it turned out to be a wooden box. Inside the box was the Netherworld Heart Lotus.

After closing the wooden box, Shanying continued, "I've also heard something."

"Speak." Tan Tai Lie said.

Shanying said, "In the past two days, many masters from various sects have disappeared. No one has seen them alive, and no one has found their bodies."

Bai Chuan, who was standing by, turned pale and said, "I was just about to say that."

"Do you know who did it?" Tan Tai Lie frowned tightly. It seemed that a lot had happened in the past two days.

Bai Chuan straightened his expression and clasped his fists, saying, "It was the Blood Immortal. To be more precise, it was the Junior Cult Leader. The Blood Immortal ordered the Junior Cult Leader to gather experts for him to help him recover his strength. Moreover, the Great Elder Heijiang is also... dead."

Everyone's expressions changed as soon as these words were spoken. Tang Xiaoyun's voice suddenly rose in pitch and asked, "Are you saying that not only is Hei Jiang dead, but even Tan Tai Yin is controlled by that Blood Immortal?"

"That's right. I fled the Heavenly Demon Sect as soon as I got the things. If I had been a step slower, I would have ended up like Hei Jiang."

This was not an exaggeration. When he learned that Heijiang had died at the hands of the Blood Immortal, all he could do was escape.

Upon hearing this, Tan Tai Lie frowned, a cold light flashed in his eyes, his knuckles turned slightly white from clenching his fists, and the aura around him was as cold as frost.

"If the Blood Immortal's strength recovers to its peak, I'm afraid even the leader won't be his match..." Ye Lan said with a worried look on his face.

If even Tan Tai Lie is no match for the Blood Immortal, then aren't they doomed to die?

"What are you waiting for? Let's get started!" Tang Xiaoyun urged.

Seeing him so anxious, Tan Tai Lie felt unhappy. Although he wanted to recover his power, he could never do it if it required sacrificing him.

Tang Xiaoyun seemed to see his worry and turned to Bai Chuan and said, "Elder Bai, is there a cold pond here?"

"Yes, there is a cold pond a hundred miles away, but I'm afraid it's frozen over now."

"Just break the ice. There's no time to lose, let's go there quickly." Without saying anything, he pulled Tan Tai Lie and walked towards the cold pond.

Baichuan, Shanying and the others looked at each other and admired Tang Xiaoyun from the bottom of their hearts. There were probably not many people who could do this for the world.

The three of them hurried to catch up, and when the five of them arrived at the edge of the cold pond, they saw a thick layer of ice on the water surface.

"Mountain Eagle, smash the ice!"

"yes!"

Shanying drew out his long sword, and several sharp sword energies smashed the ice to create cracks. Then he stomped his foot, and the cracks shattered. The cold pond water came out all at once, accompanied by a hint of cold air.

Tang Xiaoyun looked at Tan Tai Lie and said, "Go..."

Tan Tai Lie hesitated to speak. At this point, there was no turning back: "...Okay..."

Tan Tai Lie stepped onto the ice and sat cross-legged in the hole. Tang Xiaoyun then said to Bai Chuan, "Elder Bai, what should I do?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Chuan handed over a dagger and said, "I will set up the formation first. The master must enter the formation when it is formed and sacrifice his blood and essence to complete the union of yin and yang."

"Understood."

Bai Chuan nodded, then took the three rare treasures and threw them at three locations around Tan Tai Lie, then quickly made a hand gesture: "Formation, start!"

"Master, now is the time, hurry up and get into the battle formation!"

Tang Xiaoyun rushed into the formation without delay, then stabbed himself in the heart with the dagger.

[Damn, this really hurts!]

"Master, don't worry. I will protect your heart and won't let you die."

"With your words... I feel relieved." Tang Xiaoyun lay down, and his blood was absorbed by the formation, and after being melted with the three rare treasures, it was injected into Tan Tai Lie's body.

Bai Chuan had to maintain the formation and could only turn to Ye Lan and Shan Ying and say, "Go guard the entrance, as if someone is coming to disturb us."

"good."

Shanying and Ye Lan went to guard the entrance, while Tan Tai Lie felt that the Nine Yin Absolute Meridians in his body were being pulled by the Nine Yang Absolute Meridians to flow throughout his body. The blood vessels that had been blocked and unable to move forward finally loosened a little.

Bai Chuan reminded: "Master, start practicing the Blood Demonic Art now and rebuild your skills."

Hearing this, Tan Tai Lie began to practice the Blood Demon Art. With the baptism of the Nine Yang Absolute Meridians, he was able to practice the Blood Demon Art smoothly this time, and the faintly fatal heavenly punishment did not come.

Outside, Shanying and Ye Lan were guarding the entrance, chatting from time to time.

"Mountain Eagle, you said the young lady..."

"Shh! Someone's coming!"

I looked in the direction the two of them were walking towards me, and the next second I saw two men, one tall and one short, walking towards me.

The shorter man saw Ye Lan at once and said with surprise, "Senior Brother Ye Lan!"

Ye Lan was stunned and frowned at the two of them: "Junior Brother Chu Xiao, Senior Brother Lin Feng, why are you here?"

It was a rare reunion for the brothers, and Chu Xiao seemed particularly excited: "We asked around and found out that the leader was in this village, so we came here. What are you doing here?"

"We..." Ye Lan stole a glance at Shanying and laughed, "We didn't do anything."

Lin Feng stared at Shanying expressionlessly. Shanying was also looking at him, his eyes occasionally glancing behind Shanying. Then he heard Lin Feng ask, "Is the leader in there?"

"No comment." Shanying said bluntly.

Lin Feng was not surprised by Shanying's attitude. "Let me in. I have something important to report to the leader." As he said that, he was about to force his way in.

"One more step forward and you'll die!"
