Chapter 119 Chapter 119
"Don't lose heart, maybe things can turn around. Don't forget that Miss Liu Liu is still here. We can ask her after her performance."
"Yeah." Zhiyuan nodded vigorously.
Amid the commotion, the door suddenly opened. No, it wasn't a human, but a ferocious tiger walking upright—or more accurately, a tiger demon on the verge of madness.
"You despicable humans! How dare you skin and tear my son apart? What a vicious heart! Today, I will make you die with my son!" Its voice was filled with endless hatred. It seemed as if its cultivation had gone awry, and it had become possessed. The tiger demon exuded an unfamiliar aura from head to toe.
After saying this, its eyes instantly turned scarlet, and it lost all rationality. Then it suddenly rushed into the crowd and began killing indiscriminately.
Suddenly, shrill screams broke out from the crowd.
While there were monks present, the majority were ordinary mortals. Witnessing the tragedy so closely, many were frozen in fear, their screams echoing. They moved in absurd positions, unable even to stand up and flee.
Liu Liu and the dancers on the stage were equally panicked, but their first reaction was not to run away, but to pick up the painting hanging in the center of the stage.
But the more anxious you are, the more likely you are to make mistakes. The other dancers took down their paintings and ran away, but Liu Liu's painting was stuck on a thin thread, and she couldn't take it off no matter how hard she tried.
Seeing the mad monster getting closer and closer to her, tears gradually filled her beautiful peach blossom eyes.
It’s over. Is this where my life will end?
"You Lin!"
At Phoenix's command, You Lin summoned his Dragon Spear and leaped down, piercing the tiger's neck with a precise strike, interrupting its movement. Seeing this, Ah Xue summoned her sword and slashed it, severing the rope that was in the way.
Seeing this, Liu Liu hurriedly picked up the scroll and ran towards Axue without looking back.
At this time, Fenghuang was the only one left in the box on the second floor.
He sighed softly, then summoned his folding fan and said calmly, "Since you're here, why don't you show up and sit with me?"
"Can I take this as an invitation?" A strange voice suddenly appeared in the space, dark and hoarse like a poisonous snake, with a strange accent.
A cold breath suddenly came close to Fenghuang's ear, and the tone was ambiguous: "Now there are only two of us left here, just the two of us."
"You are the instigator of this skinless case." Although it was a question, Phoenix was absolutely certain at this time that the man in front of him was the culprit.
Senior Brother Zhiyuan's situation remained uncertain for the time being, but whether it was the fragments or the scroll, the aura on them was too similar to this person, making it difficult not to recognize him: "Who are you, and why have I never seen you before?"
This breath was so strange that for Fenghuang, it was like a pair of black shoes that she had never seen before suddenly appeared in her very familiar home. She could detect the abnormality at a glance.
For no reason, Fenghuang suddenly remembered the issues he had discussed with Liuhe many years ago when the human race had not yet developed.
If a world collapses and cannot sustain itself, what will happen to the living beings in it?
Liuhe’s answer was, of course, to either perish or plunder other worlds.
"Haven't you guessed it?" The being made a sound similar to a laugh. "He" lifted a lock of Phoenix's hair and said with emotion, "I did all this just to see you. To be honest, I was very unsure. I thought you wouldn't come, but thankfully, you did after all."
The words He spoke were very strange, like a parrot that had just learned to speak human language. Nine out of ten of His sentences were gibberish.
"The language of your world is too difficult to learn. And the captured samples can't read their memories..."
"Is that so?" Phoenix looked up at him and suddenly smiled. He looked very calm, as if he was just smiling innocently.
The unknown being seemed unperturbed, openly stunned for a moment. In that split second, the strand of hair in his hand snapped apart. Without the energy to sustain it, the hair reverted to its most primitive form, phoenix fire, igniting in his hand.
"According to your habit, should I scream out, it hurts?" This unknown being was humble and eager to learn.
At the same time, a bolt of lightning struck down, and the earth-shaking sound startled everyone, and even the tiger demon regained consciousness briefly.
"What's going on? Who got struck by lightning?" Ah Xue subconsciously looked up and found that it was their private room that was on fire. She immediately asked in shock, "Is Xiaohong still in there?"
You Lin tightened his grip on the gun for a moment, then released it: "He'll be fine, I'll go check on him."
The tiger demon, who had regained consciousness, clearly recognized You Lin. His eyes froze, his legs softened, and he knelt straight down.
"Big...big..."
"Shut up and don't say anything you shouldn't." You Lin said coldly, then ran to the second floor.
"The laws of nature in your world are so violent." The invader, whose body was charred black, said so, although he was originally pitch black.
"Really? I think it's cute."
Seeing that the lightning bolt couldn't extinguish it, a dark cloud suddenly gathered over the theater, and purple-gold lightning bolts struck down without mercy. Fenghuang even heard Liuhe's extremely angry voice in his ears: "Get away from my little Phoenix!"
Phoenix sighed helplessly and rubbed his ears which were almost numb from the shock.
Countless thunderbolts came down, and even though it was a precise strike, this originally magnificent performance venue was inevitably affected and turned into ruins in an instant. The invader was either killed or escaped, and no trace was left.
"Dead? Dead?"
"He ran away and said we'd talk next time." Phoenix said, "What's going on? How could an outsider suddenly appear in our world?"
"Damn you, a bunch of indestructible cockroaches!" Liuhe said angrily, "We've been targeted. A shameless world has opened a hole in the wall of our world, and some filthy creatures have slipped in through it.
And they actually have a way to block the perception of the Heavenly Dao. I couldn't find where they were. I only caught that guy because he couldn't hold it back after you burned him just now."
"The world on the other side is probably no lower in level than mine. Phoenix, from today on, you must be extremely careful. These guys' first target upon entering will undoubtedly be destroying the world's internal defense mechanisms, meaning you. They will definitely attack you."
"Yeah." Phoenix nodded, and suddenly felt overwhelmed.
He cut his consciousness back into his original body, and the incarnation instantly dissipated as his consciousness moved away.
After digesting the memories brought back by the split soul, Fenghuang immediately made some arrangements. Then he wrote a letter and stuffed it into Liuliu's mouth: "Same as always, send it over."
Although Liuliu didn't understand what was going on, she saw that Fenghuang's expression was more serious than ever, so she quickly took the letter and flew away without even bothering to act coquettishly.
"Teacher, what happened?" The young peacock gently tugged at Phoenix's sleeve. From his perspective, the teacher who had been patiently teaching him magic suddenly stood up and wrote something seriously on a piece of paper, even sending the mascot bird to deliver it.
Although the little peacock didn't know what was going on, he instinctively sensed that something was wrong in the atmosphere.
Phoenix looked at the cub's tender face, touched his head, and chuckled: "It's nothing, continue studying, Xiao Sanhuo."
Some things are not suitable for the cub to know.
"Teacher, my name is Yan..."
…
The incarnation regrouped. When Phoenix regained consciousness, she opened her eyes and saw You Lin digging holes in the ruins.
He couldn't help asking, "What are you digging?"
When You Lin heard the voice, he looked at him suddenly and a tear fell down.
Phoenix was startled: "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing. I just hit my eyes during the fight and it feels a little uncomfortable." You Lin stammered.
Ah Xue came out from a corner, holding Zhi Yuan and a scroll in her arms. Her eyes lit up when she saw Feng Huang, and she said to You Lin, "That's enough, there's no need to dig anymore. The person is back."
Only then did Phoenix realize that not long after the clone disappeared, the entire building collapsed completely. You Lin... probably thought he was buried because he couldn't escape in time.
