Ji Qingya felt a sharp pain in his throat and was about to struggle hard, but he found that his whole body was locked by some unknown force and he was unable to mobilize his immortal energy.
Big Brother had already made some moves...
His heart was cold, his eyes were red, and he spoke with difficulty, his voice hoarse: "Brother... Senior Brother, I have never treated you as a slave..."
Before Ji Qingya could finish the word "slave", he felt his throat loosen and he was thrown out, hitting the space barrier hard, spitting out blood, and fell to the ground.
He struggled to get up and stared at Xue Kun, as if trying to find out something.
He just didn't want to believe that the person in front of him, who spoke heartlessly and had a face full of jealousy, was his senior brother who grew up with him.
Xue Kun looked at Ji Qingya's embarrassed appearance, and felt very happy in his heart. He said angrily:
"You're such an idiot, so naturally you won't notice anything, but what about others?
Even the servants of Yeqing Palace know that I, Xue Kun, am nominally the eldest disciple of Yeqing Palace, but in fact, I am just a personal servant beside you, Ji Qingya!
The true eldest disciple of Yeqing Palace is you, and even Master has not denied it."
Ji Qingya was shocked. "Big Brother, what are you talking about? Things are not what you think. Master..."
“That’s enough!”
Xue Kun interrupted him coldly, his rapid breathing slowly calmed down, and he finally calmed down completely.
"Junior Brother, do you know the origins of those crazy sky demons?"
He suddenly asked this question, and without waiting for Ji Qingya to respond, he asked and answered himself:
"It's taboo."
Ji Qingya's expression changed instantly, "Big Brother, could it be that you..."
A ball of blood light condensed in Xue Kun's palm.
Looking at the silk thread dancing in the blood light, his eyes were filled with intoxication:
"Those celestial demons were subjected to the forbidden draught of souls and spirits, unable to withstand the pain of assimilation and have since lost their minds. But I... I endured it!
Junior brother, do you know how happy I was the day I mastered the forbidden secret technique? "
After hearing this, Ji Qingya finally understood why his senior brother, who used to treat him like a younger brother, had become so unfamiliar now.
When he thought about what happened today, which was not the eldest brother's intention, he felt much better and hurriedly advised:
"Big Brother, you once told me that taboos are harmful. You should wake up. It's not too late to turn back now."
"It's too late."
Xue Kun looked at Ji Qingya calmly, and slowly raised the corners of his lips:
"I'm stuck in this mess, but it's okay, little brother. You'll be able to join me soon.
This land of assimilation is the last gift I, as your senior brother, give you."
After saying that, he flipped his palm and a black bell magic weapon appeared in his hand.
"Soul-stealing bell?"
When Ji Qingya saw the black bell, his pupils suddenly shrank and his whole body felt cold. He wanted to escape without saying a word, but Xue Kun stepped on his back and he couldn't get up.
"Junior brother, why are you running away?"
Xue Kun looked down at his junior fellow apprentice, his tone returning to its previous gentle tone:
"Soul extraction is only a moment of pain. As long as you can endure it, you can come out with me."
Ji Qingya struggled hard: "What if I can't make it?"
"Then stay here. There are so many crazy demons here, you won't be alone.
As for Master, you don't have to worry. I will go back to Yeqing Palace and fulfill my filial duties on your behalf."
After saying that, Xue Kun was about to take action.
"etc!"
Ji Qingya gritted his teeth and said, "Xue Kun, aren't you afraid that Master will know about this?"
"Finally, you won't call me Big Brother anymore?"
Xue Kun sneered, "Ji Qingya, do you know that every time you call me 'Big Brother', I feel sick.
Master would never know. Even the Nine Heavens Immortal Emperor couldn't see through the calculations left by the taboo.
How could Ye Qing, a mere Daluo Jinxian, possibly be able to discern the mystery?"
At this point, Xue Kun raised his eyebrows and said mockingly:
"You seem to be stalling for time. Are you hoping someone will come here and rescue you?"
Ji Qingya was indeed stalling for time.
He still had a glimmer of hope, hoping that Sister Stone and Qingmu would descend from the sky like divine soldiers, and even more hoping that the eldest brother would show some courage, break free from the influence of the taboo, wake up, and stop harming him.
But this time when he wanted to speak again, Xue Kun did not give him a chance and directly rang the bell.
The soul was attracted by the ringing sound, and a hole was torn in Ji Qingya's sea of consciousness, and his face turned pale instantly.
He had never suffered such severe pain before, and he couldn't help but scream.
Xue Kun paused subconsciously, then a flash of annoyance appeared in his eyes, and he increased the pressure on the bell.
“Ahhhh!”
“Ahhhhhhhhh!”
“…”
The severe pain was multiplied a hundredfold, and Ji Qingya's voice soon became hoarse and he could not shout out. His whole body was soaked in cold sweat.
He saw that half of his soul had been pulled out from between his eyebrows by the Soul-Snatching Bell.
"No wonder my forehead hurts so much..."
In a trance, he saw two familiar figures coming towards him, and a smile subconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth.
I'm having hallucinations. It's over now. I'm not far from death.
But that's okay.
Before I die, I can take one last look at Sister Stone and Brother Aoki, so that I have no regrets...
Sizzle!!
The black arc of light was like lightning, coming too fast. Xue Kun was too hasty to stop it and watched it turn into a knife shadow, directly severing the connection between the Soul-Snatching Bell and Ji Qingya's soul.
Ji Qingya's soul trembled, and his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Xue Kun suffered a backlash and his face turned pale. Seeing the knife shadow coming towards him again, he had no time to grab Ji Qingya, so he immediately pulled away and kept some distance.
The knife shadow did not pursue further, but turned into a black arc of light and returned to Aoki's hand.
Xiang Sheng rolled up his sleeves, rolled Ji Qingya away and retreated behind Qingmu. He quickly made hand gestures with his hands, condensing them into a series of soul-fixing spells, and injected them into the soul body that was half separated from the body.
The soul immediately began to shrink, but not quickly.
Aoki glanced back and said, "I'll go buy time."
After he finished speaking, he rushed out.
When Xue Kun saw that someone really came to save Ji Qingya, and it was the female immortal whom he had always looked down upon, his face became extremely gloomy.
Seeing Qingmu coming to kill him, he was angry but did not lose his composure.
This space is a taboo. The fact that these two people were able to find it shows how difficult they are. We should deal with them with caution.
Seeing that he was not in a hurry to take action, Aoki immediately saw through his thoughts and took advantage of the situation to delay time.
During the confrontation between the two, Xiang Sheng tried another soul-solidifying technique.
Over the years, many ancient tribes have died at her hands. She has many secret techniques and more than thirty soul-solidifying techniques.
However, after trying them one by one, she found that the most effective one was the witchcraft "Soul Thread" she had learned before.
She weaved the small part of Ji Qingya's soul that had dispersed into six soul threads and tied them to the spiritual platform in her sea of consciousness. She then clasped the other end of the soul tightly and pulled it inward.
The soul body was pulled by the soul thread of the main body and returned to the sea of consciousness in just two breaths, and was tightly bound on the spirit platform.
Ji Qingya's breathing calmed down.
Xiang Sheng felt a little relieved when he saw this. Just as he was about to look up to see the battle situation, he suddenly heard the sound of a bell in his ears.
