Chapter 223: Seeing the Sky Again is Unexpected
Even though Yinghuan and Huiwu had escaped, everyone remained wary. After all, the ferocious Xiangliu was still before them. Although it wasn't moving, who knew if it was due to age or poor eyesight, or if it was just waking up and still groggy. If someone upset it and the old man got angry, it would be troublesome!
Just when Lingxiang and the other two were being cautious, Zhao Wuyang walked over with a swagger.
"Oh! Everyone is so quiet and timid. What's going on?"
As expected!
Lingxiang rolled her eyes and said, "You really know how to choose the right time to show up!"
Lingxiang had felt something was amiss just now. Even if Zhao Wuyang had found the innate Qi, his cultivation wouldn't have improved to this point, let alone his already weak body suddenly becoming agile enough to actually injure Hui Wu. Now seeing him like this, what else was there to wonder about?
"Tsk tsk tsk!" Zhao Wuyang smacked his lips, looking arrogant. "It's been a few days since we last met, and you're still so unpleasant, little girl!"
Long Qi and Xin Yi had never seen Zhao Wuyang like this before, and they were both dumbfounded.
How can this still be that confused little guy?
Xinyi, in particular, found it even harder to accept and could only stare blankly, at a loss.
That’s right, the Zhao Wuyang in front of him was indeed not himself, but the eternal sky that he resided in.
"I can't just watch this kid die here, right? After all, I haven't had enough fun yet!" Wan Gu Qiongcang said, and began to scratch his back, looking very weird.
Not long after, he pulled out a small ball of fur from behind him. It was Adao.
During the tremor just now, Zhao Wuyang was nearly hit by a fallen tree. Fortunately, Adao desperately protected him, so he was unharmed. But because of this, Adao was seriously injured, and even half of his tail was broken. He was covered in blood and looked very pitiful.
Seeing this, Lingxiang no longer cared about Xiangliu. She hurried forward and hugged the little furry ball that had turned into its original form with heartache. She checked his breath and confirmed that he was still alive before she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't worry, the little kid is fine!" Wan Gu Qiongcang scratched his ear and said nonchalantly.
But Lingxiang refused to agree: "What do you mean by 'very good'? He's already in this state, and you're still applauding? How dare you say that? You've never raised a child, so you don't know the heart and lungs."
When Wan Gu Qiong Cang heard this, he immediately went into a rage. He put his hands on his hips, glared, and started yelling at Ling Xiang.
"You speak as if you have raised a child. Besides, how do you know that I have never raised a child?"
Really, he is an ancient spirit after all, and the hosts he possesses are more than the grains of salt she has eaten. He has to be on guard all the time, fearing that those hosts might lose their lives one day.
How is it different from raising a child?
"Wuyang, you... you already have a child?" Long Qi was still surprised, and suddenly heard Wan Gu Qiong Cang say this, and he was so shocked that his jaw dropped.
Lingxiang couldn't help but roll her eyes again. Although the events outside Xuancang Cave hadn't been made public, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the Zhao Wuyang before them wasn't the real person. Even Xinyi's expression of surprise faded, but Long Qi couldn't seem to get over it. Truly...
Blockhead - not smart!
Just as Long Qi was struggling, Ling Xiang was helpless, and Wan Gu Qiong Cang was frantic, Xin Yi suddenly spoke up, "After all, this child was injured like this because of you, yet you act like it's none of your business. Are you trying to pass the buck?"
Although I don't know what happened to Wuyang, judging from Lingxiang's attitude, she obviously knows the reason. If that's the case, there's no need to worry about Wuyang.
Thinking of this, Xinyi pinched her chin and blurted out after a moment's hesitation. As soon as the words fell, the ancient sky, which had been jumping up and down, suddenly quieted down.
Seeing him like this, Lingxiang couldn't help but secretly applaud in her heart, praising Xinyi for his excellent work! She also struck while the iron was hot:
"Oh my! Who says it's not true? Maybe you don't have any ability, so you're just pretending to be like this? Oh my! You always boast about how great you are, but I think you only have a resounding reputation, but it's just a facade, so you make excuses like this. You're really just a sharp-tongued, thick-skinned person with an empty heart!"
The tone was so controlled that Long Qi, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but shudder, as if he was back in Youran Residence.
However, Xinyi's words hit the nail on the head, and after Lingxiang fanned the flames, the ancient sky felt a little embarrassed.
"Who? Who said I'm incapable?" Ancient Qiongcang yelled, "Isn't it just a minor injury? I can heal it in the blink of an eye!"
As he spoke, he placed his hand on Adao, and then flipped his hand. A ray of golden light instantly covered Adao. In the blink of an eye, the wounds on his body healed, and even his broken tail grew back.
It’s really a piece of cake!
"Hmph! How about it?" Wan Gu Qiong Cang clapped his hands with a smug look on his face.
Seeing that Adao's wound had healed, Lingxiang hurriedly checked on Adao, who had not yet woken up. Seeing that his breathing was stable, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Since you are so powerful, I believe that dealing with a mere Xiangliu should be no problem at all, right?" Lingxiang put Adao in her arms and said.
"Good fellow!" Shanggu Qiongcang snorted, "So you're waiting for me here? What a pity, what a pity! I won't be fooled by a little rascal like you. I've been away from worldly affairs for many years, so I won't interfere in worldly affairs. Since you've already fallen into fate, you'll just have to wish for good luck!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Wuyang's eyes rolled back and he was about to fall to the ground. Seeing this, Xinyi hurriedly supported him.
"This old guy! He is really unreliable!" Lingxiang spat in hatred, but there was nothing she could do.
At this moment, Xiangliu seemed to have sensed the disappearance of the Eternal Sky, and the eight heads all raised their heads and howled, shaking the heavens and earth, like thunder exploding in the ears.
Oh no! Could it be that the old man didn't get angry before because he knew there was someone here who couldn't be offended? Now that the person is gone, he's going to make things difficult for himself?
Lingxiang cried out that something was wrong, and Xinyi hurriedly carried Zhao Wuyang on his back, ready to dodge at any time.
Long Qi, on the other hand, was not as panicked as before. He looked extremely calm, holding the hilt of Long Yuan's sword, as if he was ready to fight him at any time.
Is he crazy? How can a mortal body compare to the ancient fierce god?
Lingxiang's eyes widened, and she quickly pulled Long Qi and yelled, "What are you doing? Are you trying to challenge it?"
I'm afraid he will be crushed into meat paste in an instant!
However, Long Qi calmly replied, "Since we know what it is, where can we hide now?"
This question stumped Lingxiang.
That's right, according to the book, Xiangliu is skilled in water, so even a sneeze from him would leave them with no chance of survival. Moreover, with Xiangliu's size, if he were to come down on them, there would be nowhere to escape. Rather than thinking about running, it would be better to burn your boats and perhaps escape death.
Can……
Is it really possible?
Although Lingxiang felt uneasy, she also felt that what Long Qi said was very true, so she just used the "Calm Down" technique in the hope of being able to resist.
Long Qi frowned, looking serious. He pulled out the Seven Star Dragon Abyss and was about to use his flying sword, but at this moment, a loud shout came from the sky.
"Wait, wait! Show mercy!"
