There is no blue cloud under the blue sky (1)
Xu Xing gently pulled their connected hands and said in a drawn-out voice, "But Ah Yue hit me so hard just now that it hurts. I don't have the strength to get up."
Looking at Li Zhaoyue's flushed face, he showed his small canine tooth on the right side and smiled, "Oh, I don't have the strength to get up, how can I pick up the compass?"
Li Zhaoyue widened his eyes, obviously shocked by his rogue appearance, and was speechless for a long time.
"I'm just teasing you." Xu Xing chuckled, ruffled her hair, and climbed up from the ground with her hand.
After doing all this, he took out the compass from his arms and handed it to Li Zhaoyue.
Li Zhaoyue rubbed her burning face and hurriedly took the compass. Xu Xing stood aside, quietly looking at her palm. After a long moment of watching her, she didn't move. Puzzled, he looked at her face, which was incredibly red.
"What's wrong?" He took a step forward and asked worriedly.
Li Zhaoyue stuttered for a long time, finally took a deep breath, and whispered: "I... I need two hands to use the compass."
It was obviously she who was nervous and blushing, but Xu Xing suddenly felt a warm current rushing up his cheeks, and his steady heartbeat suddenly accelerated. Her eyes were like a magical drug that made him dizzy.
Xu Xing let go of her hand almost as if to escape, and covered his eyes with his other hand, trying to hide his guilt. He whispered, "I'm sorry."
"No...it's okay." Li Zhaoyue pinched his fingers awkwardly and began to inject spiritual power into the compass in a hurry.
A faint light illuminated the dim room, then fell on the compass. The dense scales slowly lit up, and along with the light, the small black mole between Li Zhaoyue's eyebrows also glowed.
Suddenly, a gigantic tree appeared before her eyes. Its trunk was transparent. Looking forward, she saw countless branches extending from the trunk, each gleaming with golden light. These branches represented the direction of the future. Following all the branches back, everything converged on one person...
Inkstone in the corridor.
She suddenly opened her eyes and pulled Xu Xing back a step.
The table in the middle of the room was surrounded by black air, and suddenly a large part of the tabletop collapsed downwards. As the space was torn apart, large amounts of black mud poured out.
That black thing exuded an ominous aura, an extremely ominous aura.
Li Zhaoyue's hand holding the compass shook slightly, and at the same time, the faint light on the compass suddenly surged out and headed towards the black mud.
The white light mixed with the black mud rolled violently, and the gap in space grew larger and larger, large enough to swallow up the entire room.
The book stuck between the two people's hands fell down with a snap, falling into an unknown space crack, and disappeared into the darkness along with the two people.
When he opened his eyes again, Li Zhaoyue was back in the back garden. Xu Xing was not beside him, and the old book was lying at his feet.
She picked up the book from the ground, but before she opened it, she heard a familiar voice behind her.
"Ayue!"
It was Xie Feng's voice.
Li Zhaoyue turned around suddenly and saw him dressed as a servant, coming from the depths of the path.
"Are you okay? I've been looking for you in the mansion for three days, but I couldn't find any clues..." Xie Feng held her hand, extremely worried.
Li Zhaoyue was thinking about Xu Xing's safety and didn't bother to listen to Xie Feng's words. He hurriedly said, "I accidentally entered a fantasy world and met Xu Xing there. I'm fine. I don't know how Xu Xing is doing. Ah Feng, come with me to look for him."
Xie Feng's joyful look dimmed after hearing these words. He raised the corners of his mouth reluctantly and let go of her hand.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Li Zhaoyue asked in confusion: "Afeng?"
"I came here with him. I have a talisman in my hand that can tell me his safety. It seems that the talisman has no warning effect, so he should be fine." Xie Feng lowered his eyes, his throat a little dry.
Li Zhaoyue was still worried and said, "But the thing we encountered in the illusion was not an ordinary thing. I'm still worried. Let's look for it first."
Intellectually, Li Zhaoyue was right. The entire mansion was very strange. Finding Xu Xing was indeed the right thing to do right now, but emotionally...
Xie Feng closed his eyes and seemed to be sighing: "Okay, I'll go with you."
Li Zhaoyue lifted her skirt and hurried out. Xie Feng followed her with a gloomy look in his eyes.
The gaze that had always been fixed on him seemed to have been divided with someone else. The relationship between him and Li Zhaoyue was no longer as close as before. That person named Xu Xing...
He felt a surge of uneasiness, but it was only for a moment.
"Xu Xing and I have come here secretly this time. We must not reveal our whereabouts. Be careful." He strode forward, grabbed her sleeve and reminded her.
Li Zhaoyue responded obediently and slowed down his movements.
The paths in the mansion were complicated and winding, like a maze. Xie Feng and Xu Xing both had guides, so they could find each other's positions. Xie Feng took Li Zhaoyue and found Xu Xing sitting on the ground in front of a dilapidated house.
He seemed to know they would come looking for him. He winked at them and smiled, "It's much sooner than expected."
Li Zhaoyue hurried forward and asked, "Are you okay?"
Xu Xing was about to smile and say it was nothing, but his eyes swept across Xie Feng's face behind him. Seeing that he looked worried and absent-minded, he rolled his eyes and said weakly, "It's nothing, just a little..."
He deliberately left the second half of the sentence unsaid, leaving it for Li Zhaoyue to imagine. Sure enough, she was extremely anxious after hearing it and reached out to help him.
"Ayue, you just escaped from danger. I'm really causing you trouble by doing this." He obediently held Li Zhaoyue's hand, used some skill to stand up, and said softly.
Xie Feng saw that his face was rosy and his aura was in good order, especially the look in his eyes that was looking at him, which was full of obvious provocation.
"I have learned some medical knowledge from my master and can help Junior Brother Xu to see what disease he has. He can't even walk." Xie Feng snorted coldly, pushed Li Zhaoyue away, and held Xu Xing's wrist.
Sure enough, the qi and blood flowed smoothly and there was no sign of illness.
"I didn't know that my junior brother was in such good health?" He sneered.
Li Zhaoyue finally realized what was happening. She looked at Xu Xing and saw that he was smiling brightly and his face was rosy. She realized that he was lying again. She immediately shook his hand and said angrily, "Why do you always lie to me?!"
Xu Xing looked at Xie Feng, whose face was ashen, with satisfaction, smiled at him provocatively, and then changed his expression when facing Li Zhaoyue.
He rubbed the hand that Li Zhaoyue had just shaken off, walked slowly towards her, and said deliberately: "I did feel a little uncomfortable just now. It might be because I sat on the ground for too long, and my blood circulation is not smooth. I didn't mean to lie to you, Ah Yue."
After saying that, he glanced in Xie Feng's direction and said, "Thank you very much, Senior Brother, for taking my pulse. It seems that my feeling was not accurate. I almost caused trouble for you."
Then he smiled at Li Zhaoyue and said, "Maybe I just came out of there and I'm not used to it. I feel much better now. Ah Yue, don't be angry with me."
Xu Xing's face was too deceptive, and he was particularly good at disguising his emotions. After hearing what he said, Li Zhaoyue's expression quickly softened, and she even felt a little sorry for him.
"I was impulsive just now. I'm sorry." She saw the sweat on his forehead and subconsciously reached towards her waist, wanting to take the handkerchief from her bag, but her bag was lost, so her right hand stayed there awkwardly.
Xu Xing chuckled and held her fingertips.
"Ayue, do you want to help me wipe the sweat off my face?" He stared straight at Li Zhaoyue, his lips curled up. But before Li Zhaoyue could answer, a pair of hands came between them and forcibly pulled Li Zhaoyue away.
"Let's go. We can't stay here for long." Xie Feng pulled Li Zhaoyue to the right and said without even looking at Xu Xing.
Xu Xing smiled but did not answer. Li Zhaoyue was blocked by Xie Feng. From his perspective, he could only see her with her head lowered, with the golden tassels of her hairpin hanging down to her ears, making her skin look even whiter. At the same time, Xu Xing could also see the slight blush on her face.
He chuckled and followed the two men forward.
When the two of them sneaked into the Lou family secretly, Feng Ran and his group also entered the Lou family openly in the name of helping.
"This talisman is called the Guiding Talisman. Hang it around your waist and we will be able to know your whereabouts. At the same time, we can communicate in case of emergency." Hua Shangguan opened the sealed book and casually drew on both sides of the page, and two talismans appeared.
"Thank you." Xu Xing took the talisman, but his eyes remained on the seal book.
"Are you interested in this?" Hua Shangguan said lightly.
Xu Xing nodded.
"This is Luo Xuechi's sect's treasure, the Sealed Book. It collects all the mysterious spells and talismans in the world. It is a divine weapon." Feng Ran explained with a smile.
"Elder Hua is the user of the most spells created by the Sealed Book to date." Su Zi continued.
After the elders explained what they needed to do, they parted ways with them. Before leaving, they specifically reminded them to take good care of the guide talisman, which could provide them with help when necessary.
But so far, the guiding talisman hanging around his waist has never lit up. Xie Feng took off the guiding talisman and shook it, but there was still no response.
"Maybe the elders have no time to take care of this side?" Li Zhaoyue said.
"No," Xie Feng suddenly clenched the talisman, his fingertips sinking into the yellow talisman paper, his face extremely grim. "Our connection with the elders has been cut off, and there's no one else on the entire Floating Island who can do this except that person."
"Are you talking about him?" Xu Xing asked.
"Anyway, there must be something wrong with the Lou family," Xie Feng threw away the guide talisman, drew the Meteor Sword from his waist, and pointed it at the sky. Li Zhaoyue looked at the guide talisman thrown on the ground, and sensed the entanglement of the aura. He rushed to Xu Xing and ripped off the guide talisman from his waist.
"Don't wear it, someone has tangled it." She said anxiously.
Xu Xing frowned, watched her throw away the talisman, and then looked at Xie Feng.
He seemed to want to break the formation by force.
"The maze created by Feng Shui cannot be broken by force." Xu Xing walked to Xie Feng and whispered.
"There are two evil spells here, entanglement and prohibition. If we don't use sword energy to break them, we will be trapped here to death." Xie Feng said coldly, his hands still moving.
The Meteor Sword whistled loudly, and the sword body fell into the clouds like a meteor, emitting a dazzling light. The sword energy rushed into the sky, and as expected, it stopped at a certain height and hit the transparent barrier.
Xie Feng's face lit up with joy, but then the woman behind him suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
The Meteor Sword fell instantly, followed by the backlash of the sword energy. Xie Feng was blown away, bright red blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, accompanied by pain in his meridians.
