Chapter 222 Illusion
"Then let's try it out. Either you eat me, or I kill you!"
At this point, Dongfang Qi no longer hid his abilities. He threw out a handful of fire talismans, forming a small fire formation.
He shouted, "Die!"
A raging fire suddenly broke out around them.
The wind was rustling and the fire was blazing, but the false god who had been deceiving others just now was standing in the fire, unaffected at all.
"With just these little tricks, you dare to show off in front of me?"
She shouted angrily, but with a wave of her hand, the talisman fire array in the hall disappeared without a trace.
Only Dongfang Qi was left standing there blankly, with a look of panic on his face.
This formation was the most powerful move he had learned from Lin Qingyue before.
But I didn't expect it to be resolved so easily.
At the same time, the strange woman smiled softly: "That's the person you cherish in your heart, right? In that case, I will let you watch her die!"
With that, she suddenly rolled up her wide sleeves, and a tremendous force suddenly struck. Dongfang Qi had no time to dodge and was thrown towards the beam.
He wanted to struggle, to resist, but his entire body was held tightly by an invisible force, unable to move or speak. Only his eyes could still see, taking in everything below.
At this moment, the door of the hall creaked open, and a figure in a red dress danced in.
As Lin Qingyue walked into the hall, the door behind her closed with a "bang".
She could tell at a glance that all the furnishings in this hall were exactly the same as those in the Yun Palace back then.
Lin Qingyue looked around, trying to find any trace of Dongfang Qi.
But there was no one here, only waves of fog slowly filling the surroundings, making her vision gradually blurred.
From the east?
Did he fight a false god? Could it be...
She tried to sense Dongfang Qi's safety through the Twin Talisman, but she could sense nothing.
The twin talisman is invalid!
A red oil-paper umbrella slid out from the wide sleeves and opened with a swish like a blooming flower.
Lin Qingyue held the red umbrella, and with a turn of her wrist, a breeze blew up, clearing away the thick fog in front of her eyes.
"Yueyue." A familiar voice called out suddenly and unexpectedly reached my ears.
Lin Qingyue saw the man in white dancing gracefully, looking at her with a smile in his eyes: "Yueyue."
This is...Master!
"Yueyue, it's been a long time since we last met. You've lost a lot of weight." The smile in the master's eyes faded, leaving only worry.
"What happened? Why do you look not as happy as before?"
Scenes from the past were instantly brought back to mind.
The man before me, every move, every frown, every smile, was exactly like what I remembered. He was still so young, so unworldly. It was as if even time couldn't bear to leave any trace on him.
"Master, is it really you?" The crimson oil-paper umbrella fell from her hand, and her tears rolled down in an instant.
The man who had been engraved in the depths of her soul in past and present lives, the man she thought she would never see again, now stood vividly before her, calling her "Yueyue" as before.
"Master, I miss you so much."
Most of the time, Lin Qingyue was thinking about it.
If Master hadn't died back then, if Master and I had discovered the secrets of the world of immortal cultivation together, could we have turned the tide together? Would they have avoided that inevitable fate?
My heart aches beyond words.
Tears blurred my vision and the face of the person in front of me.
She wiped away her tears hastily, fearing that if she lost focus she would never see him again.
"Yueyue, Master missed you too. Now we are reunited as master and disciple."
Then the next moment, flames shot up into the sky, and the scene before his eyes changed to the master trapped on the execution platform, with the red lotus fire raging beneath him.
“Master!”
Lin Qingyue was horrified and jumped over to save her master from the red lotus fire.
But there seemed to be a powerful wall of air in front of her, blocking her way.
"Master, Master!" She was completely immersed in her own inner demon illusion at this moment, forgetting that she was in the temple of Guifang Kingdom and the purpose of this trip.
Everything seemed to have returned to a thousand years ago, in that most tragic scene that she could not bear to look back on. She watched helplessly as her master was roasted by the red lotus fire, his flesh and bones charred, his face distorted with pain.
Master's eyes were filled with tears, and he looked at Lin Qingyue reluctantly: "Yueyue, Master is in so much pain, please save Master, save Master!"
Lin Qingyue burst into tears, repeatedly knocking on the invisible wall in front of her, crying, "Master, I will save you, I will definitely save you! But, but how can I save you, Master..."
His sinister eyes were filled with immense hatred as he secretly spied on everything in the palace: It turned out to be you, Demon Lord Qingyue, you have also been resurrected!
Unfortunately, you can't save anyone!
The master in the illusion said seductively, "Just lead the Red Lotus Karma Fire over there. As long as you lead the fire over there, Master will be saved. Ah—Master is in so much pain, so much pain! Please save Master, please save Master!"
Lin Qingyue raised her hand and pointed two fingers together, muttering, "Is it enough to just draw the Red Lotus Karma Fire over here? Draw it here, draw it here!"
At the same time, Dongfang, who was on the beam, looked down and saw Lin Qingyue shouting "Master" in a panic. He also saw that the spiritual power was gathering at her fingertips, as if she was going to do something.
Dongfang Qi couldn't see the fantasies in her eyes, he only heard something like "Red Lotus Karma Fire, draw it over here..."
Although he didn't know what the Red Lotus Karma Fire was, he knew it was extraordinary just by hearing the name.
What's the purpose of bringing it here?
A cluster of dark red flames slowly condensed at Lin Qingyue's fingertips——
Dongfang Qi was even more surprised: Could it be the Red Lotus Karma Fire?
No, I can’t just watch Yueyue get killed!
Yueyue! Don’t be fooled, don’t!
At that moment, the worry about Lin Qingyue touched off a certain power deep in Dongfang Qi's soul. A spiritual power stronger than ever before suddenly erupted from the depths of his dantian, breaking through the restraints of his body!
"Yueyue!" Dongfang Qi jumped down gracefully and landed in front of Lin Qingyue. He raised his hand and slapped a stream of pure spiritual power on her forehead, which instantly cleared the confusion in front of her eyes.
Lin Qingyue suddenly came back to her senses, and the next moment the red lotus fire in her palm suddenly expanded and hit the man in black robe.
The black-robed figure disappeared like a reflection in the water, leaving only his voice floating in the distance.
"Qingyue Demon Lord, you are a traitor to the world of immortal cultivation. You should have died with your short-lived master long ago!"
