Even after seeing the light, Shi Mingyue still didn't dare to step forward. On the one hand, she was excited, but on the other hand, she had to consider who the person was?
She held her breath and concentrated on listening to the other person's movements, but the person did not make any sound. It was just that the light kept getting closer, which made Shi Mingyue feel scared.
The light was getting closer and closer to her, and Shi Mingyue couldn't help but want to escape, but if she moved, it would make a noise and attract the man to chase her. If she didn't move, perhaps the man wouldn't find her.
But contrary to her wishes, the man seemed to have really sensed her presence, and walked towards her direction very confidently, stopping where she was just barely visible in the light.
Shi Mingyue's spirit was already in a state of high tension. She heard the man say without hesitation: "Mingyue, is that you?"
Shi Mingyue had heard this voice too many times. She was too familiar with it. It was Qin Zheng.
"It's me." Her spirit relaxed because she felt safe.
"How do you know it's me?" Shi Mingyue couldn't help but ask.
Qin Zheng was silent for a moment, then said, "Because I am familiar with your aura."
After all, they had lived under the same roof for ten years. Qin Zheng was too familiar with her aura. Even if she stood there motionless and silent, he could still feel her presence. This was probably a kind of wonderful bond.
"Let's go, don't you want to find Fu Yueli?" Qin Zheng saw that she hadn't spoken for a long time, and knew that she had no feelings for him a long time ago, so there was no point in him saying all this.
The two walked forward in the darkness, and soon heard the sound of weapons clashing. Qin Zheng quickly blew out the fire stick in his hand. The two listened to the noise and were sure that it was Fu Yueli and Helian Yizhuo's men fighting.
Shi Mingyue and Qin Zheng did not make any sound for the time being so as not to disturb Fu Yueli and others.
Then the fighting stopped. It seemed that Fu Yueli's men had won, because Shi Mingyue heard his men calling him "Your Highness".
"Yueli! I'm here!" Only then did Shi Mingyue dare to call out the other person's name with confidence.
When he heard her voice, Fu Yueli was stunned at first, and then ran towards the sound.
Qin Zheng also re-lit the tinderbox at the right time. Fu Yueli saw Shi Mingyue in front of him clearly. She was dressed in dirty clothes and her face was covered with dust. She looked extremely embarrassed. He opened his arms and hugged her.
It was his fault, it was his fault that he put her in crisis.
"Xu Ziling, Helian Yizhuo and the others are all in the ancient city palace!" Shi Mingyue didn't have time to talk to him. She had only one thought in mind now, and that was not to let them go.
The group arrived at the palace, but the gate was not locked but wide open, which made people wonder if there was an ambush inside, waiting for them to enter.
Pushing open the door to the palace hall, the interior was still illuminated by the light of the night pearl, as bright as day. Xu Ziling and Helian Yizhuo were both inside the hall. In addition, unexpectedly, He Jun was also there.
But He Jun was obviously not in the same group with them. He was half leaning against the golden lion statue, the front of his clothes was covered in blood, his face was extremely pale, and he looked quite weak.
Shi Mingyue's heart ached. He Jun in the dream was also so weak. It seemed that he really wouldn't live long.
"Everyone is here." Helian Yizhuo smiled when he saw them all coming in.
Fu Yueli had only one thought in mind, and that was to kill him. "Helian Yizhuo, I gave you a chance to live, but you chose to die."
Helian Yizhuo laughed wildly: "Fu Yueli, you dare to speak like this in front of your ancestors?"
When he said this, Fu Yueli, Qin Zheng, and the others all looked puzzled, but Shi Mingyue remained calm. The dream scene was indeed not without reason; it was indeed a foreshadowing that Helian Yizhuo was Fu Bo.
"What nonsense are you talking about again?" Lu Lingyan, who was standing by, couldn't stand it anymore and asked unhappily.
Shi Mingyue explained: "Because he was once Fu Bo."
Fu Bo smiled and said, "Not bad, Mingwei, you remembered me."
Fu Yueli said sternly: "No matter who you were, today is the day you die."
Fu Bo shook his head: "That's not necessarily true. What if it's the day of your death?" He turned and looked at Xu Ziling.
Xu Ziling clapped his hands, and immediately several people came out from the back hall carrying things.
Those people were carrying a large box. After putting the box down, someone opened it and saw something shining with silver light inside.
"This is the meteorite I've obtained so far, and the core in my hand. They're both covered in radiation-proof covers. Once opened, there are only two outcomes for those present." Xu Ziling took out the core she carried with her. She paused, then said rather frantically, "One is death, complete death, with no possibility of life remaining. The other is life, eternal life with the world.
She then rambled on about her previous research. "I've studied many things, like thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum and medicinal herbs, in an effort to achieve immortality. But apart from prolonging life, those couldn't prevent the aging of the body, so I hoped to use the power of nature. I studied these cores and how meteorites affect the human body, but to no avail. So I wondered what would happen if they interacted together. I've never tried it before, and today presents a perfect opportunity. Different people have different constitutions, and their reactions to radiation vary. Let's take a gamble and see what happens to our fates."
As she finished speaking, the people around her immediately tore off the protective cover on the meteorite. Fu Yueli and the others had no chance to react. They were stunned by the crazy actions of these people. The hall was silent. More than ten seconds passed, and it seemed that nothing had happened. It was still calm.
Everyone seemed to be unaffected and did not feel any discomfort.
Just as they relaxed and someone was about to speak, a man suddenly screamed, attracting everyone's attention.
That was a soldier of Wutan. He was originally a very thin man, but suddenly he swelled up like a steamed bun, becoming fatter and fatter. His skin became thinner and thinner, and finally he could not hold on any longer. He exploded with a bang, and blood and flesh splattered everywhere.
The combined effects of the meteorites affected him, causing his body to expand rapidly, but his skin could not withstand such rapid expansion, so his entire body exploded like a ball.
Seeing someone die so quickly, the others finally panicked. Some tried to flee, but their bodies had already been exposed to radiation, so what was the point of running away now? Sure enough, just as they reached the door, one collapsed with his entire skeleton dislocated. Another died because his hair had grown inversely, burrowing into his flesh and causing blood flow problems. There were all kinds of strange and terrifying deaths.
