Chapter 76 Resurrection (Part 1)
To be honest, Lu Fei felt that Ye Huange was a little weird, and he thought it was no wonder that he was about to become a priest.
However, since Ye Huange needs him so much, he must seize this opportunity.
"I can help you," Lu Fei whispered. He didn't look at Ye Huange's eyes that suddenly lit up, and said, "But I need you to do me a favor."
Ye Huange said generously, "Just speak up."
"I want the sacred Fusang tree."
Ye Huange:?
Ye Huange: You really are asking for too much.
"Do you know what the Fusang sacred tree is?" Ye Huange showed a look of astonishment. "It's a treasure that is associated with the essence of wood. Don't even think about wanting it. Even if I give it to you, you can't take it away."
"That's none of your business," Lu Fei whispered, "just tell me whether you agree or not."
"I agree!" Ye Huange said decisively: "It's not mine anyway. If you can take it, then take it."
Lu Fei had already thought about how to get Ye Huange to cooperate with him at the priest inauguration ceremony and take away the sacred Fusang tree.
Then, he said very trustworthyly: "Okay, how can I help you?"
Now Ye Huange fell into deep thought again. She only knew that Lu Fei could help him, but she had never thought about how Lu Fei could help her.
She thought that if possible, it would be best to smash the temple to pieces so that no one would lose their freedom in the future.
"However, if there were no priests, wouldn't the special abilities of the Ye family bloodline be weakened or even disappear? After all, that ability can be considered a gift from God."
"It's gone," Ye Huange said, not minding the matter at all. "Only those old guys like to use their uniqueness and differences to put themselves above others. I have hands and feet, so I can naturally fight for a place in the world on my own."
Lu Fei spread his hands and said, "It's up to you, but what exactly do you need me to do?"
Ye Huange thought for a moment and said, "Then let's smash the temple, which is the prison I'm about to enter, right?"
Ye Mansion.
The Ye family guards who were looking for Ye Huange reported to the elders that they had returned empty-handed.
An elder with a bad temper smashed the table with one palm, scaring the Ye family guards so much that their legs trembled.
Fortunately, the head of the Ye family came out and acted like a good person, asking the guards to retreat, and these guards escaped being killed by a palm strike.
"Where on earth did Ye Huange run off to?" the hot-tempered elder continued to puff his beard and glare.
"Don't worry, third brother." The head of the Ye family spoke slowly and leisurely, as if everything was under control.
But the elder couldn't stand the Ye family head's leisurely look, and continued to slam the table and said, "Brother, you also know that if there is no priest to offend the gods, I am afraid that the gods will be furious. At that time, the entire Ye family and even Mingzhou City will be in trouble."
This statement caused the other elders of the Ye family to discuss it.
"Yes, only with a priest communicating with the gods can the Ye family use the essence of wood. If there were no priests, not to mention the heavenly punishment, the Lu family in the neighboring Yangjia City would directly want to swallow us up."
Patriarch Ye stroked his long beard and said, "Elders, please be patient. Huan Ge will be back soon."
"After all, those who possess the blood of the Ye family are members of the Ye family in life and ghosts of the Ye family in death. This is already written on the leaves of the hibiscus tree. It is destined."
Lu Fei's residence.
At first, Ye Huange thought she had escaped the pursuit of the Ye family guards and was very happy, but as time got closer to the priest's inauguration ceremony, her whole state began to feel wrong.
It was as if countless bugs were crawling under her skin and in her flesh. It started out as a simple itch, but then developed into an uncontrollable itch. She scratched her limbs until they were ulcerated, but still couldn't suppress the itch.
Later, even the itchiness disappeared, replaced by unbearable pain, as if the insects crawling in her flesh had changed their target and began to gnaw at her internal organs and even her brain.
Lu Fei frowned and looked at Ye Huange's current state.
How similar are they?
Isn't this what he looked like when he didn't drink the blood of the gods again in time? Therefore, all crows are black, and the gods of Cangwu are also controlling humans in some way.
He relied on Aning to get through the difficult times at that time, so there was only one way to solve Ye Huange's problem.
"You have to go back to the Ye family." He said to Ye Huange calmly.
"No!" Even though he could feel the pain of thousands of ants gnawing at his heart, Ye Huange was still stubborn and unwilling to give in. "I don't want to go back. I don't want to be trapped!"
"You'll only end up dead if you keep going like this!" Lu Fei yelled at her, "Don't you want freedom? You can go back now. On the day of the ceremony, I will destroy the temple and the Ye Mansion."
Ye Huange finally seemed to have calmed down a little, but there were still tears in her eyes.
"Yes, you promised to help me."
Ye Huange felt as if the pain in her body was relieved by thinking this way, so she struggled to push herself up from the ground, then grabbed Lu Fei's sleeve. Her eyes, which had just been tortured, looked at him and said, "I will help you take the Fusang sacred tree away. It is something like the root of the Ye family, so you must help me."
Lu Fei nodded, and saw Ye Huange step forward, with a creepy light in his eyes, and added: "Even if I die, you must help me."
It was like thunder exploding in Lu Fei's ears, but Lu Fei looked straight at her and still made a promise.
"I've heard that after death, people will enter reincarnation and be reborn. So if I ever meet Ye Huange in Cangwu in the future, I will definitely go and help her."
After getting Lu Fei's promise, Ye Huange finally let go of his hand, and then walked onto the long street step by step with heavy steps.
The people patrolling the long street soon found the eldest lady who had been missing for many days and sent her back to the Ye Mansion.
Lu Fei had no idea what happened afterwards, because patrols had been stepped up near the Ye Mansion. He risked being discovered even if he got close, so he could only wait for the day when the ceremony began.
That day soon arrived.
On this day, the entire Mingzhou City was decorated with flowers everywhere. Unlike Luming City, which only had bright red pomegranate flowers, Mingzhou City was full of colorful flowers. Those flowers were woven into long garlands that surrounded Mingzhou City and the city walls, in front of every household's door, and around everyone's neck.
Among them, the most lavishly decorated was the Ye Mansion, and the crowd was heading towards the Ye Mansion in a mighty manner.
Lu Fei also wore a colorful garland and mingled with the crowd. She moved flexibly through the crowd and squeezed to the front of the crowd.
I saw the carved beams and painted buildings in the Ye Mansion, the temple that was very similar to the temple in Luming City, and the towering ancient tree behind the temple.
It was an extremely huge ancient tree. It had existed for who knows how many years, but its leaves were still lush and green. The dense crowd in front of it looked like a group of inconspicuous ants.
Lu Fei touched the wooden box hidden in his sleeve and thought to himself: Can such a small wooden box hold such a big tree?
Before he could think about it, he saw the Patriarch of the Ye Family and the elders of the Ye Family standing in front of the temple and said, "Please ask the priest—"
That sentence seemed to carry an invisible power, dividing the crowd into two sides. Lu Fei was forced to go to one side, and saw sixteen white horses also decorated with flowers, with sixteen golden boxes on their backs.
Then followed a sedan chair carried by eight people. The sedan chair was also decorated with flowers. The sedan chair had a roof, a bottom and four pillars, but the four sides were permeable so that people could see the person sitting inside.
That person was Ye Huange. She was dressed very gorgeously. The gold ornaments and gold armor made her look golden. However, her expression looked dull and wooden, as if someone had taken away her mind.
Lu Fei recalled Ye Huange's words and thought to himself: She cannot be allowed to step into the temple. Once she does, the ceremony will be over and the Ye family will start to drive her away, and he will not be able to get the sacred Fusang tree.
Thinking of this, Lu Fei made up his mind and took action at the most grand moment of the ceremony, when no one expected someone to jump out and disrupt the situation.
Several rays of light headed straight for the temple. There was a loud rumbling sound, and then smoke and dust rose up near the temple, and the crowd was in chaos.
"Who dares to cause trouble in the Ye family?" The head of the Ye family couldn't control his emotions and asked angrily.
Under the cover of smoke, Lu Fei tried to approach the sacred Fusang tree quietly.
But in the corner of the smoke, a golden light flashed.
There is a barrier near the Fusang sacred tree that prevents him from getting closer?
Lu Fei was immediately filled with doubts, but then he heard the elder of the Ye family seem to have seen the golden light as well, and said with a hint of pride: "I don't care where you come from, thief. If you want to take our Ye family's sacred Fusang tree, you're out of luck. Only members of the Ye family can get close to the sacred Fusang tree."
Lu Fei thought for a moment and threw several smoke bombs towards the temple.
He quietly sneaked up to Ye Huange and whispered, "I can't get close to the Fusang sacred tree. You have to help me."
But Ye Huange still looked dazed, obviously in an abnormal state.
Lu Fei was anxious, and immediately remembered a very strange method of restoring people's consciousness that Jian An Ning had mentioned to her when they were together before.
"I'm sorry." He whispered
Lu Fei swung his arm, trying to transform his spiritual power into his fist, and punched Ye Huange with all his strength.
Ye Huange was knocked to the ground. Her lifeless eyes gradually regained their spirit. She rubbed her head, stood up and muttered, "Where is this? Who hit me?"
"It's me," Lu Fei said, and taught Ye Huange the hand seals and spells again, and said, "I can't get close to the Fusang sacred tree. Even the temple rejects me. Help me take the Fusang sacred tree away."
Ye Huange quickly remembered this matter. She quickly ran towards the Fusang sacred tree and turned back to say to Lu Fei: "Don't forget to help me destroy the temple."
At this moment, the smoke gradually dissipated, and Lu Fei did not have any extra smoke bombs in his hand, so the elders of the Ye family saw Ye Huange approaching the Fusang sacred tree and heard their words.
"Stop right there, you traitor to the Ye family!"
Ye Huange ignored him completely. The head of the Ye family and the elders of the Ye family stepped forward together to try to stop Ye Huange.
But Lu Fei held a sword in front of them and said, "I won't let you pass."
