Chapter 282: Finished the work and went home to hug my wife
It's over.
It's completely over.
It was trapped, trapped in this "cage" created by itself, and it became a real turtle in a jar.
"You... who are you?" the evil will asked in horror.
"How could a monster like you be born in this world?"
Ajiu did not answer it. She slowly turned her head and looked at Xiao Yu beside her.
Xiao Yu understood.
He gave Jiu a smile full of trust and doting.
He slowly raised his finger, pointed it at the twisting and rotating dark red pupil, and gently pointed it forward. A golden sword light instantly pierced into it.
"No--"
A shrill howl was heard.
The golden sword light quickly spread out in all directions. Wherever it passed, all the black evil energy was completely purified, decomposed, and annihilated by the extremely strong and yang dragon energy.
The dark red pupil of the huge demonic eye was rapidly fading in color, and the spider-web-like black blood threads were also melting away inch by inch.
In just a few breaths, the huge demonic eye that once covered the sky and the sun completely disappeared in this space.
Xiao Yu's soul was quietly suspended in the air.
His eyes never left the slender figure standing beside him.
Ajiu.
His Ah Jiu is back.
Ajiu did not look at Xiao Yu immediately. She looked at the crack quietly and slowly raised her hand.
Xiao Yu, who was standing next to her, felt his heart tighten suddenly.
He is afraid.
He was afraid that this silly girl would make the same choice again.
A ball of chaotic power that was a fusion of gold and purple slowly emerged from the hand that Ajiu stretched out.
She pressed the crack in mid-air.
"combine."
The chaotic force instantly transformed into billions of golden and purple threads of law, which began to shuttle and intertwine rapidly with the huge Netherworld rift as the center.
They constructed a new three-dimensional magic circle on the rift.
Every node is flashing with the most fundamental law runes.
Every ray of light contains the power of "returning to the source" that is enough to purify all evil.
The Netherworld rift that was originally still rotating and emitting black mist gradually stopped rotating under the coverage of this large net, and finally completely disappeared into the void.
Ajiu slowly withdrew her hand, then turned to look at Xiao Yu, the man who was willing to burn his soul and go into hell for her.
She opened her arms and gently embraced his phantom body.
"Brother Xiong Xiong."
"I'm back."
Ajiu buried her face in his arms, her voice nasal with a hint of muffled sound.
Xiao Yu could no longer suppress his inner emotions, and stretched out his arms to tightly embrace the treasure that he had lost and found again.
As if to rub her into his soul.
"Welcome back."
…
outside world.
Capital city, Regent's Palace, underground secret room.
Chu Xuanyi's eyes were fixed on the two cold jade beds placed side by side.
His forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat.
A full hour had passed since Xiao Yu and Ajiu's bodies completely lost their life force.
However, the red thread of "the same fate curse" connecting the two people's fate still exists.
But this only proves that their souls have not completely died.
As for what exactly happened in the depths of the Netherworld Rift.
How is the battle going?
They...are alive or dead.
He, the man known as the first imperial teacher of the Great Zhou Dynasty, knew nothing and was powerless.
He could only wait.
The feeling of pinning all his hopes on others and waiting helplessly almost drove him crazy.
"Your Majesty...you must hold on."
Chu Xuanyi clenched his fists, his nails digging deeply into his palms.
"Buzz."
A slight energy fluctuation suddenly emanated from one of the cold jade beds.
Chu Xuanyi suddenly raised his head, and his eyes were instantly locked on the petite figure on the bed.
It’s Ajiu.
Ajiu, who was already dead and had a cold body, had a faint purple light on her heart.
"Is this... a soul-guiding lamp?"
Chu Xuanyi's pupils suddenly shrank.
He recognized this power; it was the innate blood talent of the tomb-keeper clan.
It is also their most fundamental connection with this world.
According to legend, every saint who guards the tomb is a walking "soul-guiding lamp".
Not only can they guide the dead souls, but they can also...light a way home for their loved ones between life and death.
The light from the Nine Hearts was extremely bright, and a soft beam of light was projected out from it. It ignored the numerous formations and thick layers of the secret room and went straight into the deepest part of the Netherworld Rift.
It's calling.
She was using the most original light of her soul to summon the lover who had signed the 'same fate curse' with her.
"I'm back..."
Seeing this scene, Chu Xuanyi's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.
He seemed to have been drained of all his strength. He staggered back a step, but a smile of relief appeared on his face.
"They...are back."
…
Deep in the Netherworld Rift.
In that gray space.
Xiao Yu and Ajiu also saw the purple beam of light falling from the sky at the same time.
That is the direction of home.
Ajiu held Xiao Yu's hand with a faint smile on his face.
"Let's go home."
"Okay." Xiao Yu held the slightly cold little hand tightly with his backhand.
"Let's go home."
Their figures gradually became illusory in the purple beam of light, and finally disappeared completely in this space.
…
In the secret room.
Chu Xuanyi stared nervously at the two bodies still lying quietly on the bed.
Just as the purple beam of light slowly dissipated, Jiu's eyelashes trembled slightly, and Xiao Yu, who was lying beside her, also opened his eyes that had been closed for a long time.
Their eyes met in the air, and the silence was worth a thousand words.
Back.
They are finally back.
Ajiu woke up.
This news spread to every corner of the Regent's Palace in just half a day.
The gloomy atmosphere that had been suppressed in the palace for a long time was instantly swept away.
The servants' steps became much lighter.
Even the old man in the kitchen who was in charge of feeding the pigeons was so extravagant today that he added a handful of plump corn kernels to the pigeons' food.
Nothing else.
The prince smiled.
When the prince smiles, it means the sky is clear.
The dark cloud that had been hanging over the palace for months finally dissipated.
Chu Xuanyi has also been feeling particularly comfortable these days.
He no longer had to stay in the cold secret room every day facing two "corpses" and studying those ancient formations that even he could not understand.
There is no need to rack one's brains to deal with the evil spirits in the court who have become restless because the regent has been away from court for a long time.
His main job every day now is to sit with Xiao Yu in the pavilion of the palace to drink tea and play chess.
Then, he stared blankly at the slender figure not far away who was carefully watering the peonies.
"Tell me, how can the gap between people be so big?"
Chu Xuanyi picked up a white piece and hesitated for a long time on the chessboard. In the end, he failed to place it. Instead, he sighed without thinking.
Xiao Yu picked up the teacup and took a sip, but his eyes never left the figure.
