Chapter 52: Bloody Wife Murder Proves That This World Is Really Sick...
Walking down along the "Death Gate", the strange sounds in Xie Tingyu's ears became louder and louder.
Sometimes it is the crisp sound of dripping water, sometimes it is the sticky sound of sticky liquid, and there is also the gurgling sound of swallowing and chewing.
Mixed together, they formed a terrifying and strange noise.
Wuming floated in front of Xie Tingyu, acting as a pathfinder.
Every time Wuming took a few steps, he would look back to see Xie Tingyu's movements. Xie Tingyu did not say anything, but silently took out the spiritual fruit and ate it along the way.
After walking an unknown distance, Wuming suddenly stopped. Xie Tingyu finally raised his eyes and looked forward along Wuming's back.
A shadow appeared not far away, and the white mist quickly spread when Xie Tingyu stopped, directly covering Xie Tingyu and Wuming.
Xie Tingyu's eyes suddenly turned dark and she felt a stinging pain. When she opened them again, Wuming had already retreated to her side and was standing there motionless. His eyes under the mist seemed to be staring at the opposite side.
Xie Tingyu looked at the black bricks that suddenly appeared under his feet, and sniffed the thick demonic energy that filled his nose. He felt that everything was inexplicably familiar.
There was a gleam of light in her peach blossom eyes, as if she was moved and as if she was afraid.
Xie Tingyu wiped away her tears and angrily cursed, "You are sick, who is spraying chili water in the air?"
"This place seems to have existed naturally." Wuming suddenly spoke, his voice a little hoarse, and then continued after saying this sentence, "There may be traps."
There was a hesitation in his voice, implying that even he might not be able to avoid the danger here.
Hearing this, Xie Tingyu just tilted his head and said, "If this is the only way to go, you can go there once."
"Is the Ghost Tree in here?" Xie Tingyu saw Wuming's hesitation. Although he couldn't see Wuming's expression clearly, Xie Tingyu subconsciously thought that Wuming was entangled in this issue.
No one knew what this sect that seemed to appear suddenly was. The words on the plaque in front of the door were blurred and the content could not be seen clearly.
The tile suddenly fell when Xie Tingyu approached and landed directly at Xie Tingyu's feet.
Xie Tingyu looked up and saw that the plaque on it was even shaking and about to fall.
She separated a strand of red thread and flicked it, then walked in without looking back.
Just like the surface of a lake being stirred up with ripples, it turned into a water mirror the moment Xie Tingyu stepped in. The scene in front of him flipped, and Xie Tingyu felt that everything was spinning in this instant.
The dilapidated sect seemed to have regained its former glory in an instant. Xie Tingyu thought for a moment, then took two steps back and looked up at the plaque.
Inscribed on the plaque were three large flying golden characters: "Tianxing Sect".
"What a big tone, doing justice for the heaven?" Xie Tingyu sneered, raised his hand and hooked the red thread on his fingertips, and the red silk thread bounced in Xie Tingyu's hand.
Wuming just followed Xie Tingyu without making any movement.
Suddenly, a sword light flew from a distance, and Xie Tingyu's heart tightened instantly, but he saw that the sword light slowed down as it got closer to Xie Tingyu.
It fell straight in front of Xie Tingyu.
Transformed into a white figure.
"Senior Sister, you are finally back! That mortal has been refusing to eat or drink for the past few days and insists on seeing you." The little fairy boy danced in front of Xie Tingyu with a bit of anger on his face.
Seeing Xiaoxian being angry, Xie Tingyu didn't know what was going on, but still smiled and looked over and said, "No problem, I'll go see him."
Just as Xie Tingyu took a few steps, the little fairy boy caught up with her, grabbed her sleeve, and stared at her when she turned around.
Seeing this, Xie Tingyu was puzzled and stared at the little fairy boy with wide eyes, "Didn't Senior Sister bring me some candied haws today?"
ah?
Xie Tingyu was slightly stunned. She had already suspected that the thing in front of her was fake, and now she was even more confused. She asked tentatively, "Senior sister, your memory is not good after going out. What's your name?"
"You don't even remember my name? You gave me my name yourself!" Tears suddenly welled up in the little fairy boy's eyes, and Xie Tingyu, who was always indifferent, was caught off guard.
She didn't expect this kind of answer. She smiled and remembered the storage ring that Chen Chanyi gave her, which was filled with countless things. She actually found something in it.
A piece of candied haws that has been stored for who knows how long, but at least it looks exceptionally clean and fresh.
Xie Tingyu turned it in his hand, his eyes filled with hesitation. Would it be a bad idea to give this candied haws that seemed to be expired to this child?
The little fairy boy sobbed in his throat. Xie Tingyu thought he was crying and looked up quickly.
She saw the little fairy boy blinking his eyes and staring at the candied haws in her hand.
"I can't give this to you." Xie Tingyu put the candied haws back into the storage ring with a thought, and then realized that it seemed more like a deliberate temptation.
In order to prevent the candied haws from causing problems for the child, Xie Tingyu pretended not to notice his pitiful expression, "Didn't you say that the man refused to eat or drink? Take me to see him. If he really starved to death, I can collect his body."
The fairy boy quickly calmed down and rolled his eyes, "You are still thinking about him? Just a mortal, can you go to the Demonic Abyss to look for medicine for him several times?"
"Who is he?" Xie Tingyu looked confused.
The little fairy boy looked even more speechless, "Sister, don't pretend you don't remember. You always do this."
The little fairy boy seemed unaware of Wuming's existence from beginning to end. Xie Tingyu followed behind him, listening to him mumbling all the way, and occasionally complaining to Xie Tingyu about some trivial matters in the sect. Xie Tingyu found it interesting and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Wuming hadn't spoken a word since he entered this place. Xie Tingyu didn't care whether he was pretending to be dead or not. Anyway, the thing between his eyebrows was always oppressing him and controlling his life.
As long as Xie Tingyu doesn't let go, Wuming can't escape.
This is not something Xie Tingyu should worry about right now.
Her mind raced, searching for plots related to this place in the novel "The Immortal Journey".
I just felt that the words "Tianxing Sect" were particularly familiar, but I didn't know where I had seen them before.
Xie Tingyu's temple acupoint was aching slightly.
[Ding Dong, triggering a key story scene, the eve of Qingyun Sword Master's enlightenment]
The system, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly made a sound at this moment, and Xie Tingyu showed an expression of both laughter and tears on his face.
'Damn it, now you know it.'
[The villain was always by your side before, I didn’t dare to speak freely]
'Why? Can Wen Zhiyu still sense your presence?'
【able】
As the system said this, Xie Tingyu was startled and her steps froze. She let out a "ha".
This attracted the attention of the little fairy boy, who frowned and said, "Senior Sister."
Xie Tingyu hummed and followed. Wuming took in Xie Tingyu's strange expression and was about to say something.
The triggering key story scene mentioned by the system is the plot where Qingyun Sword Master kills his wife to prove his truth and directly ascends to the immortal world.
This is controversial in "The Path of Immortality". Some people say that Qingyun Sword Master never loved his wife, but just needed someone to prove his truth to him.
Others say that without love, it is impossible to preach successfully.
Xie Tingyu was speechless at the time. His wife had been killed, so who cared about her life?
Everyone is discussing whether Qingyun Sword Master loves people or not. This world is really sick.
But speaking of this, where in the book does Xie Chuyang get killed to prove his point?
Just when Xie Tingyu's thoughts had successfully flown away, the reluctant voice of the little fairy child came from the front, "We're here," pulling her back from these speculations.
The little fairy boy didn't seem to want to go in, and stood there motionless. Xie Tingyu walked past him and heard his low voice that sounded like a warning, "Don't agree to anything from him casually anymore."
Hearing this, Xie Tingyu turned around and raised her hand to give him a slap on the head, "How dare the little kid threaten me?" She curled her eyes and smiled, "I'll do whatever you say."
After all, this place is in the underground palace. Although Xie Tingyu is not afraid of ghosts, there is still something as stinky and dizzying as demonic energy.
Just in case, Xie Tingyu always asked Wuming to be alert to the concentration of demonic energy around him.
She walked around the fairy boy and opened the door. A bitter smell of herbs wafted over her face, and green smoke lingered.
The wind was even colder than outside.
"Where does the wind in this room come from?" Xie Tingyu muttered to himself, and with a glance, a figure appeared in front of the curtain.
He was tall but extremely thin, and even his green gown couldn't hide his thin figure. His face was pale, and his eyes suddenly lit up when he saw Xie Tingyu.
Xie Tingyu was speechless when she saw the other person's face clearly. She pretended to be angry and asked, "Why don't you eat? How can your body bear it if you continue like this?"
"Is it you?" The other party did not answer Xie Tingyu's question.
Xie Tingyu talked about other things and pretended that he was not Xie Tingyu, but a native of this place.
"You can't get better without taking medicine. You are really confused right now." Xie Tingyu frowned slightly, with worry in his words.
I didn't expect to meet Qiu Qingyu here. Although Qiu Qingyu's face was pale at this time, the rebelliousness between his eyebrows could not be concealed.
His gaze was like a sharp needle, piercing straight towards Xie Tingyu.
With inquiry in his eyes, he observed Xie Tingyu's every move.
Xie Tingyu remained calm. From her previous tests on the little fairy boy and her memory of the plot, she had figured out what was going on in this scene.
The illusion copy that was originally meant for the male and female protagonists Li Jue and Bai Lingling to promote their relationship, how come it is her turn now?
Or with Qiu Qingyu?
Xie Tingyu sneered, "I saved you, your life belongs to me, how much loss would I suffer if you died?"
According to the original plot, Tianxing Sect's eldest sister Mu Yi picked up a seriously injured man in the mortal world. She fell in love with this mortal at first sight and took good care of him, putting herself in danger for him many times.
This man also seemed to fall under Mu Yi's gentle attack and gradually let down his guard. Mu Yi searched all over the world for treasures to keep this mortal man alive, hoping to stay with him forever.
On the wedding day, this man revealed his true identity and cultivation level. Qingyun, a rare swordsman genius in the world of cultivation, stabbed Mu Yi in the heart with a sword.
He showed an indifferent look on his face and said impatiently: "You are really the stupidest person I have ever met."
Mu Yi never thought until her death that this man whom she regarded as a ruthless person had never loved her from the beginning to the end.
Recalling this bloody classic plot, Xie Tingyu fell silent again.
Xie Tingyu was speechless.
Is it true that this world of cultivation cannot escape the plot of killing one's wife to attain enlightenment?
If this Qingyun Sword Master wants to kill the person he loves, can't he find his parents? If that doesn't work, he can just dig them out. Isn't that more effective than killing his wife?
Thinking of this, Xie Tingyu threw the sword away and knocked away the teacup that Qiu Qingyu was holding.
The teacup fell on Qiu Qingyu, wetting his clothes, then rolled to the ground and shattered. The tea burned the back of Qiu Qingyu's hand. Xie Tingyu suppressed his disgust and stepped forward to hold Qiu Qingyu's hand.
Her eyes were red as she said regretfully, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I didn't check and the sword flew out and hurt you by mistake."
Innocent Sword: ...?
Qiu Qingyu, whose hands were burned red: …
