Chapter 121 Everyone blames each other, regretting not saving Ye Li
In the white light.
Ye Li could only see the scene of her falling. Although it only lasted a few seconds, she could clearly see everyone's expression.
Wen Yao, who kept saying he liked her.
Mo Hannian, who said he would repay a life with a life.
There was also Qingyu Zhenren, who flew over despite being engaged in a magical battle with Elder Song.
They rushed in from all directions and grabbed Su Ying'er's hand tightly.
Mo Hannian and Wen Yao grabbed Su Ying'er's hands from either side, while Qingyu Zhenren's protective spiritual power steadily supported Su Ying'er's back.
With such a desperate rescue, no matter which of the three grabbed Su Ying'er, she wouldn't fall.
But they still rushed over without prior arrangement, letting her fall into the abyss.
Are you sad?
She shouldn't be sad.
Didn't she already know what kind of people they were? Didn't she already have a deep disappointment in them?
But why did her heart feel so empty when she fell?
Perhaps she had heard too many of their feigned remorseful words, leading her to believe that this time they would change somewhat.
Even if there's only one person, even if there's only one person who grabs her hand and pulls her up...
But there was nothing, absolutely nothing.
Once again, they chose to turn a blind eye to her death.
"Mother!"
Just as Ye Li was in a daze, Ah Jin's voice rang out in the silver mirror.
"Mother, something's wrong with your aura! Where are you?!"
The concerned voice warmed Ye Li's heart. Just as she was about to speak, a "snap" sound came from somewhere.
The sound sent a chill down Ye Li's spine. She tried to see where it was coming from, but the surrounding white light was so bright it hurt her eyes, and she couldn't see anything.
The next second, a powerful and domineering suction force surged from the soles of her feet, as if trying to uproot the spiritual energy within her body. It felt as if a thousand steel needles were piercing the depths of her soul, causing unbearable pain.
And this is just the beginning.
This formation is dangerous and domineering. Ye Li formed hand seals to barely maintain the barrier and said in a difficult tone, "I am in the Spirit Mirror Illusion Formation. This formation is terrifying. I may not be able to go back. I will send the Soul Return Mirror to you first."
Ignoring everything else, Ah Jin exclaimed excitedly, "The Spirit Mirror Illusion Array? The Heavenly Gate Sect's Spirit Mirror Illusion Array? Mother, you are so lucky!"
If things weren't so bad, Ye Li would have cursed. She was about to die, where was her good fortune?
Ah Jin said excitedly, "Mother, quickly look! Is there a mirror in the center of that formation? Is it blue?"
Ye Li had noticed the mirror before, but she hadn't paid attention to its color.
Looking towards the center of the formation, it was indeed cyan, just as Ah Jin had said.
As she resisted the destructive force that threatened to crush her barrier, she said, "It is indeed cyan. How did you know?"
“Great, Mother! This mirror is called the Soul-Guiding Mirror. Like the Soul-Returning Mirror, it is also an ancient magical artifact. Now take out the Soul-Returning Mirror and recite the incantation I taught you last time.”
Another mirror?
Ye Li felt that Ah Jin's excitement was strange, but the situation was urgent, so she did as he said.
Just as the last word was pronounced, something strange happened.
The terrifying suction force below stopped, and the originally flowing mirror surface suddenly caved inward. The caved in grew larger and larger, gradually expanding from the size of a mirror to Ye Li's feet.
Ye Li instinctively stepped back, but her feet seemed to be glued to the ground. Not only that, she sank rapidly as if she were sinking into quicksand.
The silvery liquid quickly covered her chest.
Ah Jin seemed to sense something was wrong and asked, "Mother, what's wrong?"
Ye Li quickly explained the situation, "How could this happen?"
"Oh no!"
Ah Jin suddenly remembered something, "It must be that you are a spirit, Mother, and the Soul-Guiding Mirror is trying to suck you in!"
In just a few words, she was already stuck to her neck, asking, "How am I supposed to get out?"
"You need to make the right decision...you..."
"..."
Ah Jin seemed to be saying something, but at this moment Ye Li was completely immersed in the silvery mirror, with only ripples spreading outwards on the surface.
-
Meanwhile, above the formation.
"What have you all done!"
As soon as Elder Song landed, he pointed at their noses and angrily questioned, "Jiang Li is my disciple, what right do you have to force her down!"
Su Ying'er's eyes were red with grievance, but she still defended her senior brothers, saying, "Elder, you misunderstand. Senior sister fell down by accident. None of us wanted to."
"If that's not true, why didn't anyone help her! Didn't you say she was Ye Li after being possessed? Why did you stand by and watch her die!"
"Speak up!"
"..."
The surroundings were completely silent, with only Elder Song's questioning voice echoing in the background.
The people who were just moments ago so eloquent have now all fallen silent.
Even Master Qingyu remained silent, staring at the intense white light, his eyes a somber color that no amount of light could illuminate.
Wen Yao, who was standing to the side, finally reacted. He rushed to the edge of the pit and shouted, "Ah Li! Come up! It'll be too late if you don't come up now!"
"Ah Li!"
There was no response.
He didn't understand why Ah Li, who was standing right next to him just moments before, had vanished again in the blink of an eye.
He tried to make sense of it all, but his mind was a complete mess.
Just as he was feeling lost and helpless, someone suddenly grabbed him by the collar and pulled him up.
"Wen Yao! That's enough!"
Mo Hannian roared, "Don't you like Ye Li?! Why didn't you save her just now?! Why did you watch her fall?!"
"I……"
Wen Yao was shaken by Mo Hannian as if all his strength had been drained. He stared blankly at the array that was flashing with dazzling light, shaking his head. "I don't know, I really don't know how A-Li fell in..."
Mo Hannian said angrily, "The person is gone, what's the use of saying all this! She's possessed, she'll die in the formation, do you know that! How can you just watch her die a second time, how can you!"
The roar seemed to be questioning him, or perhaps questioning itself.
After uttering those words, Mo Hannian collapsed to the ground in despair.
Wen Yao also collapsed to the ground, recalling everything that had just happened.
Hearing Su Ying'er's cries for help, he rushed over to rescue her...
He didn't see Ah Li. Yes, that must be it. He didn't see Ah Li.
He tried to find an excuse for himself, but the reason was completely untenable.
Clearly, he saw it.
He saw Ah Li fall down with him.
But he still chose to save Su Ying'er first, because Su Ying'er was a mortal, and she really wouldn't survive if she went down there.
Moreover, Ye Li had always given him the impression of being strong and independent. This was true back in the Lotus Sect. No matter the circumstances or the danger, she would always let them go first, as she always had a way to escape.
So he instinctively reached out to Su Ying'er, who needed help more...
Oh, right!
Ye Li was with Su Ying'er when she fell!
The memory is becoming clearer.
Wen Yao suddenly looked at Su Ying'er, "You pushed Ye Li down, didn't you!"
Otherwise, Ye Li would never have gone down there herself knowing the danger!
Upon hearing this, Master Qingyu swept his cold eyes over as well, asking, "What exactly happened?"
