Chapter 116: The Abnormality of Zuo Zicheng
Xie Tingyu stepped on it, and the monster covered in a layer of tattered disciple uniform began to twist.
The Tianxing Chixiao that was nailed on its head emitted a sharp red sword light, which suddenly expanded outwards as it struggled.
The sword energy penetrated the monster's skin and flesh, almost stirring in its blood.
Cheng Yan frowned, and couldn't help but look over there, but a figure walked over and the shadow blocked Cheng Yan's sight.
Although Xie Tingyu was taller than her, she didn't feel much when they stood in one place on weekdays.
Now it seems that Xie Tingyu is still much taller than her.
Cheng Yan's mind was in a state of confusion. Xie Tingyu's eyes were cold and ruthless. "Who asked him to come up?"
"This is a disciple of Su Yuanxing's cultivation level. Naturally, he got the place based on his own ability." Zuo Zicheng continued. Xie Tingyu's tone made him feel particularly uncomfortable, and his voice was filled with pressure.
"I'm not asking that, I mean, he..." Xie Tingyu pointed his finger at a place.
Upon hearing this, Zuo Zicheng turned around quickly, but there was no one there.
The corner of his mouth twitched, "Is it so fun to scare me?" He turned his head with a curse, and a bloody face suddenly appeared in front of him, with blood flowing from all seven orifices, red eyes with bloody tears, and face covered with scars.
"Ahhhh!" Zuo Zicheng was frightened for the second time and screamed twice. Cheng Yan held his forehead speechlessly and let him grab his sleeve.
When Zuo Zicheng reacted, he patted his chest and rolled his eyes.
Xie Tingyu couldn't help laughing and walked forward to grab the man's shoulders.
The man was bleeding all over, looking extremely scary.
However, in Xie Tingyu's hands, the man's whole body trembled violently, and then fell down in front of Zuo Zicheng, disappearing without a trace before touching the ground.
This time Zuo Zicheng looked at Xie Tingyu first, and combined her expression with the monster behind her that was pierced on the head by Tianxing Chixiao, "Was that a ghost spell just now?"
Xie Tingyu smiled and shook his head, raised his hand and pointed behind him, "No, it's this thing."
"Its soul?" Zuo Zicheng swallowed his saliva and felt a chill on his back. Cheng Yan spoke first, "Was this thing once a disciple of Xuan Yuntian?"
"In the beginning, this disciple was infected by the evil spirit and turned into a monster that is neither human nor ghost. Judging from the degree of corrosion, it should have been at least a year."
"One year? When did these monsters sneak into Xuanyuntian, and under what circumstances did they infect these disciples?"
"The word 'infection' is not accurate enough. It's more of a parasite." Xie Tingyu scratched his head, and bloody scenes flashed before Cheng Yan's eyes.
She stepped back suddenly, and the flame gun appeared in her hand in an instant.
The flames from the flame gun spread along her arm, and with a loud "bang", the flames surged forward with a scorching hot breath.
Zuo Zicheng didn't have time to ask Cheng Yan what he saw, and subconsciously stood in front of Xie Tingyu to resist Cheng Yan's attack.
Cheng Yan's eyes were bloodshot, as if he was possessed.
Xie Tingyu shot a talisman into her forehead. Cheng Yan froze and the hand holding the Fiery Gun relaxed a little.
When the blood in Cheng Yan's eyes faded a lot, Xie Tingyu met her gaze and asked, "Have you touched this thing?"
"No...right?" Cheng Yan's voice was hoarse. He took a deep breath and answered.
Xie Tingyu raised her hand and wiped her cheek with her fingers, leaving a drop of black and red blood. She reached out and placed her fingers on the flame gun.
Her action came without warning and even looked absurd. By the time Cheng Yan reacted, it was too late to stop her. He watched as the flames from the flaming gun entangled Xie Tingyu's fingertips, and the drop of blood on her fingertips boiled.
Xie Tingyu seemed not to feel any pain at all.
Cheng Yan frowned, "Don't be like this."
"The burning degree of the flame on the flame gun is controlled by you as the owner. You won't hurt me, right?" Xie Tingyu glanced at her sideways as if inadvertently. Cheng Yan's brows were wrinkled and he looked particularly worried.
Zuo Zicheng bared his teeth and said, "Don't do this. Why do you seem so crazy lately?"
Upon hearing the word "crazy", Cheng Yan also raised his head. Xie Tingyu has indeed been acting abnormally recently. When she first came to Xuanyuntian, she didn't have a good face when she met anyone. When she and Zuo Zicheng started to interact, she seemed easy-going and easy to get along with, but in fact she maintained an absolute alienation.
I thought that after a year of getting along, their relationship had reached a new level, but now, Xie Tingyu's attitude has returned to the way it was at the beginning.
Her alienation was palpable, and it carried with it a madness she had never displayed before.
Xie Tingyu smacked his lips, "No."
As soon as she finished speaking, several people in the corridor turned their heads and looked at the corridor wall that was pierced by the monster.
Look at the outside world through the big hole left in the wall.
Xie Tingyu hesitated for a moment, Cheng Yan put the flaming gun on his back, and the two of them walked forward together.
Zuo Zicheng hesitated, turned around to glance at his room, then gritted his teeth and ran in the opposite direction.
Xie Tingyu glanced at him, and like Cheng Yan, they both didn't pay any attention.
"Who are you coming? You bumped into me head-on without dodging or avoiding." Shi Yun's spiritual power covered the entire flying boat. Her voice was cold and powerful pressure flew out.
Soon, the flying boat shook violently, and the pressure released by Shiyun was forced back, stirring up a brilliant spiritual color.
Xie Tingyu and Cheng Yan stood firmly on the ground.
This kind of fluctuation caused by the struggle of spiritual power is stronger than the usual fluctuation. Even Cheng Yan, who is now at the peak of Fu Shi Yu, can hardly resist it. Looking back, Xie Tingyu's figure has not moved at all.
From this angle, Cheng Yan could only see Xie Tingyu's profile. She had no expression on her face, and it was clear that her appearance had not changed, but her temperament was completely different from before.
The beautiful face that was shown to her yesterday seemed to be covered up by Xie Tingyu again, so that Cheng Yan couldn't tell which one was Xie Tingyu's real face.
"Don't look at it for now. You'll have plenty of time to read it later." Xie Tingyu glanced over and Cheng Yan was startled.
Then he whispered, "Sorry."
The flaming gun turned a circle in her hand, and the flame suddenly sparked in the air. The bright red flame color was wrapped in heat. Xie Tingyu did not retreat, and Tianxing Chixiao separated an illusory shadow from the sword.
The red sword energy instantly filled the corridor, and Tian Xing Chi Xiao's sword energy was extremely sharp.
He rushed out with murderous intent and passed through the big hole in the wall.
Cheng Yan's flaming gun followed closely behind, but it was just blocking the figure in front of the big hole, blocking the figure that wanted to fly out.
Xie Tingyu's figure paused.
Cheng Yan grabbed her clothes and shook his head at her, "You are only at the fifth level of the Floating World Jade."
Xie Tingyu was indeed stopped by these words.
Xie Tingyu glanced at her coldly. Cheng Yan's words were not a mockery, but more like a warning.
He warned her that even if she had a hidden card, she had to hide it well. After all, what she showed to the outside world now was only the fifth level of Fu Shi Yu's cultivation.
It would be fine if it was still within the realm of Floating World Jade, but I'm afraid Xie Tingyu will use his superb ghost spells to kill people here.
If anyone in the cultivation world becomes suspicious of her identity and collectively demands her arrest and interrogation, no one will be able to save her.
Even Yunheng Sword Master, who is highly respected in the world of cultivation.
Cheng Yan was well aware of this and had to advise Xie Tingyu.
Fortunately, Xie Tingyu did not do anything after hearing what she said. He really stopped and stood beside her without saying a word.
Xie Tingyu only released Tianxing Chixiao's clone, the real Tianxing Chixiao was still trapping the monster here.
This monster is so bizarre that even Tianxing Chixiao's sword energy cannot strangle it and can only restrain it.
Xie Tingyu also knew that she couldn't deal with this monster directly in front of Cheng Yan.
This is not a strength that a fifth-level Ukiyodama can possess.
"There's an old acquaintance of ours outside, but he doesn't look friendly." After a long while, Xie Tingyu spoke slowly.
A look of sarcasm appeared on her face.
Hearing this, Cheng Yan took a step forward and walked out along the corridor, "I'm afraid it's not safe here. We'd better leave as soon as possible."
"I can't leave, you go first." Xie Tingyu didn't move at all, Cheng Yan knew that she was concerned about the monster suppressed by Tianxing Chixiao.
After a brief thought, Cheng Yan asked doubtfully, "Can a Heavenly Red Sky clone suppress this thing?"
"It shouldn't be possible, especially since I have already sacrificed a clone."
Xie Tingyu waved at her. Cheng Yan paused and turned around, walking back to Xie Tingyu. She lowered her head and asked, "What else?"
"Come to the theater, we don't have to join in the fun."
Xie Tingyu's figure was reflected in Cheng Yan's eyes. She was sitting cross-legged against the wall, with the big hole that was smashed next to her, and strong wind was blowing in from outside.
Cheng Yan sighed, and the flame gun released flames to seal the gap and block the wind from coming in. "I feel like I'm too used to you."
Xie Tingyu fiddled with her fingers and finally raised her lips, "Thank you for acting with me."
"I felt something was wrong when you suddenly made a gesture to me just now. It's too abnormal for you to do this." Cheng Yan stuck close to Xie Tingyu, their shoulders leaning against each other, feeling the cold breath coming from Xie Tingyu.
It was like being pressed by a block of ice, and soon my shoulder was numb from the cold and I had no feeling at all.
"Can't you control the leakage of your spiritual power?" Cheng Yan raised his hand and pressed it on Xie Tingyu's shoulder. The warm fire-attributed spiritual power penetrated Xie Tingyu's spiritual power protection.
Xie Tingyu did not dodge nor resist, and let Cheng Yan do what he wanted on her shoulders.
"My spiritual power leaking out is not important." Xie Tingyu paused, "The most important thing right now is that there are spies inside Xuanyuntian. With the existence of these people, more people in Xuanyuntian will be infected and become monsters."
Xie Tingyu is a ghost and was originally classified as one of the demons by the people in the cultivation world, but now she helps Xuan Yuntian catch demons.
It's more like a fight between the same kind.
"Do you know where Zuo Zicheng went last night?" Xie Tingyu's voice was not lowered. Cheng Yan's eyelids twitched, and he quickly raised his hand to cover her mouth, his voice very soft.
"You also know this? Could it be that just now..."
