Chapter 43 The existence behind Li Jue. Will the chosen one also be abandoned? ...

The old voice appeared out of nowhere without any warning.

The sound made Xie Tingyu's weak body tremble with fear, as if a mournful cry was emanating from his body.

Xie Tingyu's mind went blank for a moment.

Suddenly, a hand was placed on my shoulder, and a gentle voice broke through the barrier, "Xie Tingyu."

It was clearly a gentle voice, but it penetrated the shock of that old voice.

Xie Tingyu's mortal body is too weak, and her ghost king's power cannot be completely integrated into her body, to the point that it even becomes a burden to her body.

Xie Tingyu's body was now in a state of fragmentation, and the "tower" built by the unstable fusion of his mortal body and soul was shaking and about to fall.

Li Jue was tied to the jade strip that Han Xunzhen pulled out from the jade slip by Xie Tingyu with a black bone whip. He was tied so tightly that he could only move his head to express his struggle.

Li Jue's eyes were fierce, and it was obvious that the old voice was protecting Li Jue.

Stand up for Li Jue.

Xie Tingyu relaxed his tense nerves, Tianxing Chixiao was caught in his palm, and Xie Tingyu raised his hand and swung out a sword.

Just passing over Li Jue's cheek, the sharp sword light drew another bloody mark on Li Jue's bloody face.

So deep that you can see the bones.

There was a red glow corroding and spreading from the edge of the wound. With every movement, Li Jue's howls became more miserable.

The old man's voice was filled with even stronger anger, "How dare you?"

"Don't use verbal threats every time. If you want to solve the obstacle for him, just kill me directly." Xie Tingyu leaned against Wen Zhiyu's side with a defiant expression. The power emanating from his body was like that of an untamed beast, brutal and powerful.

"But I'm afraid... you can't kill me."

After this sentence, the old voice disappeared for a moment, and a cold smile echoed in the air.

Heat waves are rolling in the desert.

Li Jue's face was a little distorted.

But in front of Xie Tingyu, he slowly fell silent.

The impending storm dissipated in an instant, and Xie Tingyu and the others were slightly stunned.

Is that it?

"Is that all?" Han Xunzhen was dumbfounded.

Apparently, he didn't expect it to end so abruptly. The old voice just now was so majestic.

I thought another battle was about to begin.

Unexpectedly, the old voice turned into a sneer and disappeared directly into the boundless desert.

Wen Zhiyu imitated Xie Tingyu's stiff smile and moved in front of Xie Tingyu, "It seems that he was scared away by his junior sister. His junior sister is really amazing."

Xie Tingyu had prepared for the worst-case scenario of his mortal body being destroyed, but he didn't expect that the master behind Li Jue would act so strangely. What was he doing?

"Are you sure I scared you away? I don't have that kind of strength yet, so please don't flatter me."

"What do you mean by praising and killing?" Wen Zhiyu frowned when he heard this.

Before Xie Tingyu responded, Han Xunzhen pulled Zelan's clothes and said, "Sister, are these two people changing too quickly?"

"What change?" Ze Lan's face was still a little solemn. She always felt that the owner of this old voice would not let it go so easily.

At this time, Li Jue was still lying on the jade bar, breathing weakly, and each breath was dragged out with a long sound, like a grim reaper gasping for air.

Is this the chosen one of this world?

Xie Tingyu suddenly felt that this so-called novel world was too absurd. He thought that others would only be cannon fodder to complete the protagonist, but he didn't expect that even the protagonist could be easily abandoned.

'Is this considered abandonment?'

Xie Tingyu was unsure.

Wen Zhiyu heard Xie Tingyu's inner voice, put away his smile and lowered his eyes slightly, "Junior sister, do you think this world is fair and just?"

Xie Tingyu did not answer Wen Zhiyu's question, which seemed puzzling at the moment. She glanced at him, bent down and picked up a handful of hot gravel.

He threw it casually beside Li Jue.

The hot wind blew the yellow sand onto Li Jue's face. Li Jue's eyelashes trembled, and his cloudy eyes suddenly opened.

"woke up?"

Xie Tingyu had no deep hatred against him, but Li Jue set a trap to lure them into the game. There were many monsters hidden in the sandstorm. Xie Tingyu's soul was strong and he could easily feel the filth and evil that was ready to move inside.

As for Wen Zhiyu, he definitely knew.

After all, he is the world-destroying villain in the original novel who hides his identity and cultivates himself to the end.

Han Xunzhen drew a spell with his fingers and wrote a few red symbols on the jade strip. It was so moving that it was difficult to make out the content.

Bai Lingling examined it carefully for a while and then gave up.

This is written too sloppily.

The jade stick was cast under a spell and it steadily dragged Li Jue up from the ground. Han Xunzhen glanced at Li Jue's half-dead appearance and snorted coldly.

He pointed his finger downwards and slammed the jade bar that was holding Li Jue into the yellow sand.

Li Jue groaned, then spat out a few mouthfuls of bright red blood.

His breath became even weaker. Han Xunzhen raised his eyebrows and pretended not to notice.

"Senior Sister, I can't control this jade strip, why don't you do it?" Han Xun really didn't want to take on this job.

Although it is not difficult, it is inevitable that Xie Tingyu will suddenly come up with some ideas and implement them, and take him to suffer together.

Ze Lan raised Han Xunzhen single-handedly, so how could she not see what Han Xunzhen was thinking? She immediately gave him a cold and threatening look.

Ze Lan didn't say a word. Han Xun Zhen's eyes were darting around, pretending to be very busy. His fingers kept moving, causing the jade bar to shake along with them.

Li Jue finally couldn't bear it anymore and passed out on the jade bar.

Bai Lingling, who saw the whole process: …

How could this person be so frightened?

Han Xunzhen had to look after Li Jue, so the responsibility of guiding the direction fell on Wen Zhi and one other person.

Unlike the first time when he coughed a few times after walking a few miles, Wen Zhi was now at ease and looked calm.

Han Xunzhen, who saw everything at the end, had his eyes wide open with a sharp light flashing in his eyes.

Wen Zhiyu and this guy were pretending to be weak just now, why are they so strong now?

Ze Lan flew in the front, with the long whip in his hand extended out, piercing through the air without making any sound.

Just detecting obstacles ahead in the air.

Wen Zhiyu came second, Bai Lingling followed Wen Zhiyu, and the small bell on her waist could cooperate with Wen Zhiyu at the right time. Xie Tingyu fell at the end, side by side with Han Xunzhen.

Han Xunzhen dragged Li Jue, and the jade bar was pulled on the yellow sand, making a rustling sound.

He saw Xie Tingyu holding Tianxing Chixiao without saying a word, and couldn't help but want to ask about something he had suspected for a long time, but there were other people here, especially Li Jue, this vicious guy who was neither human nor ghost.

Han Xunzhen finally held it in.

Xie Tingyu Yuguang saw Han Xunzhen hesitated to speak, and looked at him sideways, "You want to ask about my relationship with Mo Yuan?"

Han Xunzhen shook his head immediately. Although he refused quickly, his slightly panicked expression betrayed him. Xie Tingyu raised the corners of his lips and said, "To be honest, Moyuan is a place that cannot produce a genius like me."

I originally thought that Xie Tingyu would say something meaningful. Bai Lingling, who was not far ahead, pricked up her ears, and was speechless for a moment when she heard Xie Tingyu's complacent voice.

"Ever since its birth in the world of cultivation, the Demonic Abyss has been a place where demons and ghosts are born and where evil spirits gather. This place is always surrounded by demonic energy, and no vegetation grows in the surrounding area. There is no life at all. Why do you think the demons in the Demonic Abyss can have intelligence?"

Under Han Xunzhen's speechless gaze, Xie Tingyu straightened his attitude and looked serious. He loosened his arms around Tianxing Chixiao, and soon his fingers tightly grasped the sword.

Wen Zhi and his men were casting spells. His expression was cold and he took Xie Tingyu's words to heart in silence.

The demons in the Abyss cannot develop intelligence?

'Of course not.'

Of course not.

When Wen Zhiyu was denying it in his heart, he heard Xie Tingyu's self-deprecating voice echoing, and the answer was exactly the same as his.

Of course, monsters can also develop intelligence, but this also depends on whether they are conceived by nature or formed under the mysterious control of the heavens.

"The Demonic Abyss has existed for many years. Even our predecessors ten thousand years ago did not know when it was created. How could it not give birth to something intelligent after so many years of nurturing the demonic energy?" Han Xunzhen muttered to himself after thinking seriously for a moment.

At this time, Xie Tingyu stopped talking. She took a few steps back and distanced herself from Han Xunzhen.

Han Xunzhen exclaimed "Eh", turned around and saw Xie Tingyu's back.

Xie Tingyu quickly disappeared from Han Xunzhen's sight. Han Xunzhen was slightly startled, and Wen Zhiyu paid attention to the back and noticed Xie Tingyu's actions.

No response was given.

Continue with your hand movements.

Bai Lingling sighed, "I can never figure out what Miss Xie is thinking."

"Because my junior sister's brain is different from that of ordinary people." Wen Zhiyu didn't even turn his head. Bai Lingling heard an unprecedented gentleness in his voice.

It was a warmth and a gentle tone that had never been shown to her before.

But this is all because of Miss Xie. Bai Lingling understands Wen Zhi's feelings towards Xie Tingyu.

Really, didn’t Miss Xie notice it?

It's so obvious.

"How is it different?" Bai Lingling asked with a smile.

Wen Zhiyu shook his head, "This is not something that can be explained clearly."

It was as if he knew everything and was just keeping it a secret.

Bai Lingling was familiar with this way of speaking, and Miss Xie also liked to speak this way on weekdays, which immediately attracted other people's questioning.

But who learned from whom among these two brothers and sisters?

Bai Lingling was protected in the middle of the team and was extremely safe.

She seemed particularly relaxed, and because of Wen Zhi and Xie Tingyu's extra care for her, Bai Lingling did not feel too worried even though she was in the terrifying White Bone Desert in the Western Regions.

But why hasn’t Miss Xie come back yet?

Bai Lingling kept looking back, but Xie Tingyu was still not within her sight.

Bai Lingling's cultivation level is only the third level of Floating World Jade. Among the teenagers of the same age in the Bai family, she can be considered a genius, but there are countless geniuses in the world of cultivation.

She was shocked by the gifted Xie Tingyu and Wen Zhi.

The range she could see was not far.

"She's back."

A gentle and clear voice interrupted Bai Lingling's thoughts. Bai Lingling said "hmm" and saw with her naked eyes a vague shadow appearing in the distance where the desert and the scorching sun met.

The backlight leaped from the other side of the desert.

Bai Lingling's eyes lit up, and a man in white suddenly appeared before her.

What followed was a strong smell of blood.
