Chapter 71 Chapter 71 "Sister, when I grow up, I...
"Before you kill me, can you take a look at this first?" Du Wuzhu smiled good-naturedly and handed over a mirror.
The Ice and Flame Mirror amplifies the desires and fears in people's hearts.
In the demon world, Yao Ning saw the fear of the people around him, and Bing Yanjian did not reveal his true strength.
She glanced at Bing Yanjian, then looked up at Du Wuzhu.
Du Wuzhu did not come alone, he was followed by Du Xuandu.
Du Xuandu exudes a pure and kind aura, with gentle and compassionate eyes, like a bhikkhuni who has attained enlightenment.
However, she was wearing revealing clothes, and the bells on her ankles jingled as she walked. Her jet-black hair contrasted with her snow-white skin, giving her an inexplicably erotic aura.
Du Xuandu had a blank look in his eyes as he stood quietly behind Du Wuzhu, like a porcelain doll that had lost its soul.
"What did you do to her?"
Du Wuzhu smiled and said, "It's just a minor punishment for insubordination."
A butterfly fluttered its wings and landed on the fragrant flower ornament on Du Xuandu's forehead. Perhaps it mistook the flower ornament for a real flower, so it stayed for a moment and then left.
Du Xuan didn't even turn his eyes.
Du Xuandu gave people the feeling of a walking corpse, with no response to the outside world. Perhaps her soul had really been moved somewhere, and what was in front of her was just an undecayed corpse.
Du Wuzhu noticed Yao Ning's gaze and said, "Are you concerned about her changes? After all, it was after she entered the Bingyanjian that she became so well-behaved and sensible."
Yao Ning did not touch the Bingyanjian.
Du Xuandu became like this, and Du Wuzhu told her openly that it was because of the Bingyanjian, and then when she was full of murderous intentions towards him, he asked her to fall into the trap.
"Do you think I'm arrogant?" Du Xuandu seemed to be able to see through her thoughts and chuckled, "Or do you think I'm crazy?"
He ignored Yao Ning's cold murderous intent, and they talked and laughed as if they were good friends who had met again after a long separation.
Yao Ning's face was cold.
She hated the way Du Wuzhu looked, always at ease, fearless, looking down from a high position, and always having the upper hand.
The Fu Guang sword stabbed out unexpectedly, as fast as lightning, and when it was about to touch Du Wuzhu's eyebrows, it suddenly stopped.
A smile flashed in Du Wuzhu's eyes: "What?"
Yao Ning put away his sword and continued chopping wood in silence.
A strong murderous aura emanated from her body, and the heavy, wet wood snapped in half.
This person is not a masterless person.
Yao Ning thought of the human body in Xizhou Pavilion where Du Wuzhu's soul temporarily descended, the top star of Xizhou Pavilion, and the disciple of Taohua An who was exiled to the human world.
The sword was just thrust out, and the person who died was probably an insignificant little person.
Du Wuzhu said: "You have seen too little of the truth."
The aroma of wood floated in the air, debris flew, and some sawdust fell on Yao Ning's head and shoulders.
Du Wuzhu stretched out his hand, as if wanting to brush it away for her.
Yao Ning chopped the wood with his axe and asked, "Why didn't you dare to come, but let her come with you to die?"
Du Wuzhu paused, not reacting.
Yao Ning didn't wait for his answer and continued, "If you dare to touch the corner of my clothes with your dirty hands, I will chop Du Xuandu with an axe."
Du Wuzhu's expression turned strange.
After a while, he seemed confused and annoyed, and withdrew his hand.
Yao Ning wiped the sweat off her forehead and began to carry the chopped firewood to the wall and stack it. She was furious and angry, and she wanted to hack to death anyone and anything that stepped into her territory.
She touched her belly. She had heard that pregnant female animals would become extremely ferocious. Perhaps her growing temper and bloodlust were related to the baby in her belly.
Yao Ning caught a glimpse of the broken wood on his shoulder and brushed it off.
She thought of the day in Xizhou Pavilion when Du Wuzhu said, "Dust has fallen on your shoulders."
There was a chaotic battle between good and evil in the middle, and Du Wuzhu showed mercy.
On the journey to the demon world, the Ice and Flame Mirror was opened and someone let him go.
Even though Yao Ning had never been sentimental, she had wondered why Du Wuzhu treated her differently again and again.
She originally wanted to attribute it to Adu's origins.
But the myriad threads of connection are secretly connected, seemingly pointing to another possibility.
"You're his."
When Yao Ning sat down again, he looked directly into Du Wuzhu's eyes and said affirmatively.
He is the man behind the scenes, the chess master, and the instigator.
Du Wuzhu didn't deny it: "I said before, you've seen too little of the truth. We just want you to see clearly that everyone in the world is ungrateful and unlucky. This world is not worth your lingering in."
He raised his chin behind him, and Du Xuandu walked forward woodenly and put down a photo bead.
"I know you are wary of me and won't enter the Ice Flame Mirror. This was the fear you felt that day in the Demon Realm's White Bone Palace."
Yao Ning sneered: "Why should I watch?"
"The Ice Flame Mirror has been passed down since ancient times, created by the universe and nature, and it cannot be false. The future a person fears may shift for various reasons, but the past they fear has already happened, unshakable, and the dust has settled."
Du Wuzhu stood up and said, "Your husband and your beloved senior sister have done something behind your back. Don't you really want to know?"
"I heard that the world has been in turmoil recently, and the leader of the Tianshu sect—who was also your close friend—was the first to denounce you."
Du Wuzhu said regretfully: "I feel so sorry for you."
Yao Ning stared at him and touched the axe handle.
"You're pregnant." Du Wuzhu seemed to be unable to see the anger boiling in Yao Ning's eyes. "What a pity! Another speck of dust has fallen on little Aning's shoulders."
*
After Du Wuzhu left, Yao Ning threw away the axe, went back to the cabin, packed his luggage, and prepared to leave.
The person behind the scenes wants to kill her.
Du Wuzhu knew her whereabouts and informed the Demon Lord or the righteous side, and even informed both sides that this place was no longer safe.
Yao Ning didn't know whether the person behind the scenes was watching her fleeing in embarrassment under his nose, and whether he was going to tease her before forcing her into a desperate situation.
But as long as she can still live, she will spare no effort to survive.
After she gives birth, she will go to the demon world to kill Du Wuzhu first.
Find that coward who dares not show up and let him experience what it feels like to be homeless.
Before leaving, Yao Ning touched his stomach, and the hostility in his red eyes subsided a little.
"Be good, Mommy will take you somewhere else to see the scenery."
When Yao Ning left, the photo bead left by Du Wuzhu followed her stealthily.
She took a look and was about to crush it when the ground in front of her began to shake. Yao Ning's body swayed from side to side and he shouted impatiently, "You're looking for death!"
She thought that on the first day, she had defeated everything here and let them know who was bigger and who was smaller.
Just as he was about to make a move, the undulating land in front of him returned to stability, and characters began to appear tremblingly on the ground in front of Yao Ning.
It was a strange symbol that Yao Ning had never seen before. However, when she saw it, she naturally understood its meaning.
"Someone."
Yao Ning was stunned. These days she had discovered that using spiritual power would increase the sluggishness and adhesion of consciousness, so she had been deliberately reducing its use.
Yao Ning released his spiritual sense, which instantly covered an area of several miles.
From all directions, dense crowds of people gathered here.
She saw Chen Qian and Chu Liangxiu.
*
At the edge of the dense forest, two different teams collided.
Chu Liangxiu glanced at Meng Yaoguang and her fellow disciples and followers behind her, and asked sincerely, "How dare you come out here?"
Meng Yaoguang subconsciously pressed his chest: "What did Senior Sister say?"
Chu Liangxiu was naturally indifferent, but at this moment, a rare look of disdain appeared on his face: "Liar."
She pushed away Wang Mianzhi who was holding her and walked to the other side away from Chu Liangxiu.
Wang Mianzhi glanced at Meng Yaoguang with a complicated expression. Seeing that her face seemed a little pale, he seemed to want to say something but hesitated. Finally, he walked away silently and went to Chu Liangxiu.
Meng Yaoguang looked normal.
Meng Yaoguang and Shen Qian were the only ones left at the front of the two teams. They were silent for a moment. After a moment, Shen Qian spoke first, "When the three of us were little, you were the most serious one. You were unhappy if you didn't get first place. If Mian Zhi invited other kids, you wouldn't be happy either."
Meng Yaoguang was stunned. He didn't expect Chen Qian to mention this.
"I often thought back then that your competitive nature is exactly what my mother likes. If I had half the personality you have, she would surely be very pleased."
Meng Yaoguang smiled. "If someone kept telling you day after day that you were the descendant of the Human Queen, the only heir to the Tianshu Sect, and that you were invaluable, you would involuntarily slip into that shell, fearing you would make a mistake and be ridiculed."
Chen Qian remained noncommittal: "Obviously, with An Ning's identity, even if she approached you on her own initiative, she would just be one of those kids you excluded from the game. You looked down on her background, so why did you lie to her?"
Meng Yaoguang didn't answer but asked, "You knew I cared about status, so why didn't you stop her?"
"A Ning likes you." Chen Qian sighed, "But I know her personality. The eldest sister treats her very well, but she was hostile to her in the past. What's more, she thinks you and I..."
Chen Qian was silent for a moment, then asked Meng Yaoguang, "You used your mind to seduce her, didn't you?"
The two men each led a team forward, and the atmosphere was relatively peaceful, but they both knew in their hearts that they were enemies to the death.
The corners of Meng Yaoguang's mouth curled up into a smile that seemed to be mocking, but also sneered: "Just take it as it is."
*
When Yao Ning was stunned, the image-recording bead behind him trembled twice, and a scroll unfolded in the void.
The lush grass stretches to the end of the sky and the earth.
A full moon hangs in the sky.
The moonlight fell on the young man's face, and his plump lips opened and closed, as if he wanted to say something.
Yao Ning glanced at it and recognized it as the scene she saw when the Ice and Flame Mirror of the Demonic Realm was unfolded.
She ignored the photo beads and started to run for her life in a certain direction.
The image-retaining bead seemed to be attached to a formation, following Yao Ning closely. The shaking picture changed in her peripheral vision, and the young man's eyes were gentle and handsome.
Chen Qian, who was eleven or twelve years old, looked exactly like he did when she first met him.
Yao Ning thought that Du Wuzhu had been a demon cultivator for too long, and was accustomed to fleeting romances and the law of the jungle, and was not familiar with the complexity of human nature.
At the Immortal Alliance Conference that day, she and her senior sister were attacked at the same time, and Chen Qian gave up on her.
At that time, she had experienced the greatest fear of her life.
Nothing could have frightened her more than it did then.
The image on the photo bead shook and swayed, and the young man's deep and clear voice came out, as gentle as silk woven by moonlight.
"Senior sister, when I grow up, I will marry you."
