Chapter 385 Why You?
The burning golden yang fish swung its tail, stirring up the entire carriage and shattering all the doors, windows, beams, tables, and chairs. Everything in front of it melted in the unbearable heat.
Only then did Yu Sui feel the scorching heat, her breathing became heavy, the entire space became enclosed, and the flying sparks ignited her black windbreaker robe.
Gu Gan, lying on the ground, was covered in sweat. His eyelashes, damp with sweat, trembled slightly, and his dark eyes were fixed on the figure in the firelight.
He watched as the other person slowly withdrew the hand that was gripping his neck. As the flames disappeared, a slender figure was revealed in the black robe. The golden skirt was embroidered with mountain birds and cloud patterns, exuding nobility and elegance. The platinum tiger mask was burned and melted by the flames, and the black hair slid down the girl's fair face. In her extremely dark eyes, there was an expression that Gu Gan both knew and found unfamiliar.
Gu Gan felt his throat burning from the flames, making it difficult and painful, but he struggled to make a sound: "...Sui Sui?"
impossible.
How could it be her!
Gu Gan's eyes trembled as he stared in disbelief at the girl in the firelight.
Why you?
In an instant, he recalled the scenes from before: from Yu Sui appearing on the cloud chariot dragon, to swiftly killing several Rakshasa sorcerers from the Nangong Second Division, to just now restraining his Divine Eye of Heaven, the killing accident was leaked, and he almost snapped his neck.
All of this is incredible.
Looking back now, Yangyu's reaction was the first signal he received.
The mutual attraction and murderous intent drove them to madness, determined to crush each other at all costs.
"Sui" Gu Gan leaned against the crumbling wall of the car, and the two of them were burned to varying degrees in the starlight of Yang Yu.
“Brother Gu,” Yu Sui looked down at him, her expression calm and her tone indifferent, “our partnership has ended.”
What?
Gu Gan couldn't understand it, but he could sense the murderous intent emanating from this narrow space.
"You want to... kill me?"
Gu Gan was breathing heavily, his clothes were soaked with sweat, and he gripped the door frame tightly with one hand as he tried to get up, the veins on the back of his hand bulging.
Are you trying to kill me because of the yin-yang symbol?
Before Gu Gan could even ask, countless golden spirit words lit up behind Yu Sui, transforming into long arrows of lightning that pierced straight into Gu Gan's chest, pinning the just-standing Gu Gan to the broken wall.
Blood gushed from Gu Gan's mouth. He raised his hand to grab the long arrow that had pierced his chest, and looked up at Yu Sui in disbelief.
"Why?"
With a deafening roar, the Yang Fish burst through the roof of the Flying Dragon Chariot, and sparks exploded amidst the thunderstorm, illuminating the dark clouds.
Yu Sui was knocked back by the exploding sparks, which burned the back of her hand, ignoring her protective aura.
She was somewhat surprised, not knowing how many years it had been since she had felt the pain of being burned by fire.
The next instant, the Yang Fish charged towards the two of them, like a burning fireball, igniting all the five elements of the world. In an instant, the Cloud Chariot Flying Dragon shattered and shattered, flames completely engulfing the entire Cloud Chariot Flying Dragon, and Yu Sui and Gu Gan plummeted together with the burning Cloud Chariot Flying Dragon.
The burning figure of Yang Yu was reflected in Yu Sui's extremely dark pupils. The scene of countless stars falling in the dark sky made her feel as if she had entered a dream bestowed by heaven.
As Yu Sui plummeted, she caught a glimpse of Gu Gan burning in the air, flames consuming his five elements and body. Just as she was about to chase after him, she was forced back by the wreckage of the cloud chariot. She heard the howls of unknown insects and beasts beside her. When she turned around, she was slammed into the sea by the Yang Fish.
In the blink of an eye, Yu Sui had gone from the high sky to the dark depths of the sea.
The burning figure that was still falling flashed with a silvery-white light, like a bright mirror reflecting another strange phenomenon in the world, before falling into the deep sea along with the wreckage.
Zhong Lishan went to another cloud-cart, Flying Dragon, and found that the opposite side was not much better off. People in the passageway were either dead or crippled. He made his way to the control panel without any obstacles, and there was only one injured driver.
Zhongli Shan immediately ordered Wen Yangxiu to come over. The poor coachman was threatened again and forced to make the two cloud chariots collide.
Just as Wen Yangxiu brought Shi Yuezhen and Cang Shu over, they heard a loud bang. The group turned around in disbelief to see the cloud chariot, which had barely maintained its flying dragon form, now shattering and disintegrating in the raging flames.
"Xun Zhiya is still..." Wen Yangxiu hadn't finished speaking when the shockwave from the nearby explosion forced them to bend over and dodge, driving another cloud vehicle, the Flying Dragon, away from the center of the explosion.
Amidst the sweltering heat, Zhonglishan opened one eye but closed the other, glancing back at the blazing flames, where he could vaguely see a golden figure plummeting rapidly.
Yin-Yang Pisces?
Did Gu Gan fall down?
Inside the second half of the carriage, A-Jing touched the cracked wooden talisman, put it away, and looked up at Jiang Chi standing by the window.
Jiang Chi gazed thoughtfully at the exploding and disintegrating cloud chariot flying dragon in the distance, and raised his hand to touch the temple that had been bruised by sword energy.
Sheng Fei had three black burn marks on his neck. He was taking a deep breath, pulling out the wood chips stuck in his arm and bandaging it himself. He turned his head to look at the wreckage of the cloud chariot that had crashed outside, frowning. Could Gu Gan still be up there?
"Who was that person just now?" Sheng Fei asked. "His military sword spirit is very strange."
He thought Li Jinshuang's sword spirit was strange enough.
"Third Young Master, no matter who that person is, we'll find them eventually." Jiang Chi glanced at his two dead subordinates, then turned around. Half of his clothes were burned off by the flames, revealing his strong muscles. His right hand, which held the knife, was red and peeling.
"But it seems we've messed up something. Young Master Gu is on the cloud car across the street, and we don't know if he'll be back in time."
After Jiang Chi finished speaking, he rushed towards the control panel in front.
He was clearly more concerned about Gu Gan's life or death than Sheng Fei.
Ah Jing stepped forward to ask Sheng Fei if he needed help, but Sheng Fei refused and followed Jiang Chi with a gloomy face.
They made their way to the control panel and saw several unfamiliar figures standing in front of the open door from afar.
Jiang Chi gripped his longsword tightly, quietly gathering his strength, but Sheng Fei spoke coldly, "What are you doing here?"
Zhong Lishan was the first to turn around, his hand resting on the hilt of his sword. His gaze first fell on Jiang Chi, and then swept over Sheng Fei.
The young master of the Zhongli family?
Jiang Chi glanced at the Shuofeng Sword and raised an eyebrow slightly.
Sheng Fei walked forward: "Where is Gu Gan?"
“I don’t know,” Zhong Lishan said. “He destroyed that cloud chariot, the Flying Dragon, and he himself was on it.”
Sheng Fei's eyelids twitched upon hearing this: "That Mei Liangyu?"
"They fell down." Zhong Lishan's grip on his sword didn't loosen as he slowly looked at Jiang Chi. "The people who attacked our cloud chariot were from the Nangong Second Division, weren't they?"
Jiang Chi shrugged and said, "Yeah, those unlucky bastards must all be dead by now. Young Master Zhongli has finally gotten his revenge. If those blind fools had hurt Young Master Zhongli, we wouldn't have been able to explain it to the General later."
Seeing the cloud chariot getting further and further away from the center of the wreckage, Sheng Fei said with a stern face, "Turn back."
“Impossible.” Zhong Lishan blocked his way.
Sheng Fei sneered, "This is my cloud chariot."
Zhong Lishan said indifferently, "It's already been robbed."
Sheng Fei noticed Shi Yuezhen, who was still unconscious behind him, and pointed at her, saying, "Don't try to stop me here. I followed you because of Shi Yuezhen. Last time at the clinic, she insisted that I examine her..."
Upon waking, Cang Shu opened his eyes and said, "It was Nangong Sui who requested it."
Sheng Fei was taken aback: "What did you say?"
“Nangong Sui thinks that your temper has been volatile and you can’t control your emotions these past few years because you’ve been poisoned by a Gu, which is why he asked us to examine you,” Cang Shu said. “But we haven’t found any signs of Gu poisoning on you.”
"Absurd!" Sheng Fei couldn't accept this explanation at all. "You're telling me that all of this was at Nangong Sui's request? She suspects I've been bewitched?"
That's hilarious!
"Believe it or not, it's up to you." Cang Shu had no intention of arguing with him.
Sheng Fei retorted, "Is Shi Yuezhen taking advantage of this opportunity...?"
Before he could finish speaking, Cang Shu interrupted him: "No."
Sheng Fei was not very convinced. Cang Shu stood up, leaning on the door frame, and looked at Sheng Fei: "You are Nangong Sui's brother, so she won't lay a hand on you."
Because Nangong Sui is the person Mei Liangyu likes.
When he was away from home, he was always protected by his family and elder brother, but now he has become the one protecting Seong-young.
This made Sheng Fei feel a lack of reality, and instead he kept thinking of Yu Sui's appearance in the Lake of the Dead, which was unfamiliar, terrifying, like a liar, a monster.
The Nangong Sui in my memory is definitely not her.
All past memories were illusions; only the scene in the Lake Styx where he was genuinely cursed to die was the truth.
It wasn't just me who was deceived; others were too.
Sheng Fei looked at Cang Shu and the others again and suddenly found it very funny.
They were all just fools who, like him, were deceived by Nangong Sui.
Sheng Fei stared at the unconscious Shi Yuezhen, his emotions gradually calming down. He said in a slow and deliberate manner, "You lost Gu Gan, so you should at least bring some people back to report."
He glanced at Jiang Chi out of the corner of his eye; Jiang Chi raised his eyebrows, his smile roguish.
"Thank you for pointing out the way, Third Young Master."
Jiang Chi raised his sword and slashed horizontally, facing off against Zhong Lishan, who was guarding the front.
Sheng Fei doesn't trust anyone now.
He wanted Shi Yuezhen to wake up and personally explain.
...
The deafening explosion of the cloud vehicle vanished the moment they entered the deep sea. In the dark, icy water, only the turbulent sea air ripped at Yu Sui's skin like sharp knives, leaving streaks of blood.
Yu Sui had just regained his balance in the seawater when he looked up and saw Yang Fish staring intently at him from the top.
After Yangyu broke free from the seal within Gu Gan's body, it gradually regained the strength it had when it was still in the Underworld Lake.
Its massive body made the humans in the water appear as tiny as mayflies, and its burning eyes blazed with silent killing intent.
Yu Sui stared directly into its dazzling eyes, without fear. Instead, she gently opened her mouth and silently declared:
Come on.
The Yang Fish swallowed her whole in an instant.
As Yu Sui was thrown deeper into the sea, her limbs and bones were burning, and her skin and flesh were about to peel off in the scalding heat. She seemed to experience the pain of being burned in the prophecy of the world's destruction, which was far more cruel than being devoured by the strange fire in an instant.
Yangyu burrowed into the depths of her soul, heading straight for that cluster of wildly flickering flames.
The moment the two met, their cunning master pulled them both into the vast, cloud-shrouded sea of stars in the Nine Provinces. The wind and waves shattered the rocks, and the stars shone dimly across the sky.
The golden yang fish hovered in the air, attracting each other to the black yin fish that had reverted to its enormous form in the sea. The cluster of burning black flames stood in the void, firmly controlled by the yin and yang fish.
It's time for you to fight each other.
Either the different fire will win, or the yin and yang energies will win.
