You still have the courage to come out
In the dark.
With one hand placed on the cold white jade ground, Jiang Jingyuan exhaled silently and slowly stood up. A chill even colder than what he had felt before in the white jade road permeated his surroundings.
"Caught up..."
It was as if his heart, which had been tightly grasped by an invisible hand, suddenly relaxed, and he was filled with fatigue and weariness. Jiang Jingyuan murmured unconsciously in his heart, and looked up at the hazy darkness around him.
In his mind, Xu Qinglin sighed: "My vision is really good. As expected, you won't die that easily. You are so lucky..."
Jiang Jingyuan: “…Heh.”
You didn't seem to think so just now... Jiang Jingyuan muttered inwardly, but didn't say anything more. The most urgent thing was to leave quickly, so as not to be caught up by those things again.
"People with a bad temper won't be happy in life," Xu Qinglin said indifferently. His words inexplicably revealed a hint of worldly sophistication and sadness.
After a pause, she added slowly, "It's easy to get angry to death."
Jiang Jingyuan: "..."
"You're right."
Jiang Jingyuan responded with a numb expression, then gathered his consciousness and moved away from Xu Qinglin.
Recalling the dark white jade secret room he saw in the illusion and the cold mist that suddenly fell from the sky, Jiang Jingyuan walked straight forward in the hazy darkness towards the wall, as if thinking about something.
Suddenly, a sharp wind blew on his cheek from the side. Jiang Jingyuan's eyes froze, his feet moved faster, and his body leaned back.
"brush!"
A wisp of black hair floating beside her cheek was instantly cut off by the cold light and merged into the darkness. An exquisite and elegant folding fan brushed across her neck, and a murderous aura as cold as a poisonous snake wrapped around her neck.
"Hiss..." The scarlet tongue brushed against her neck again and again.
Jiang Jingyuan stood where he was and slowly turned his head.
In the hazy darkness, "Da, da, da..." accompanied by the crisp and ethereal sound of footsteps, a figure that almost merged with the lightless darkness walked slowly on the cold white jade ground.
"You caught up so quickly..."
Jiang Jingyuan said this in his heart, but in fact he was not very surprised. Instead, he felt calm and indifferent as expected.
"You can escape for a while, but you can't escape forever..." Xu Qinglin sighed, "I spoke too early."
Jiang Jingyuan didn't respond. His dark eyes stared quietly at the figure in white not far away through the thin white gauze.
call--
A faint air current surged in the white jade secret room.
The white dress dotted with green bamboo swayed gently, and as the woman approached, her aura suddenly changed.
It seemed like just a blink of an eye, and she was already dressed in red and copper bell-like clothes. She tilted her head and looked over, her gilded eyes curved, like a ghost crawling out of a blazing hell.
"Bang!"
A punch struck into the invisible darkness, but it made an explosion sound.
Jiang Jingyuan dodged the oncoming punch by moving sideways, his feet retreating as if drifting on water.
She clenched the plum blossom sleeve arrow and was about to raise her hand when she twisted her body and dodged to the side.
As the woman in red danced gracefully, she punched the spot where she had been before, and another loud "bang" shook the entire white jade secret room.
"Huh? You've been hiding all this time. Can't you beat me?" The woman in red said with a smile, "Why hide? Don't you want to leave here?"
Jiang Jingyuan's heart suddenly trembled, his dark eyes trembled twice, and then calmed down again.
Perhaps it was the person before her, or perhaps it was the "Him" they were referring to, who had sensed her "Soaring Snake" mark. They wanted her to use it, perhaps out of curiosity, perhaps to plunder, or perhaps to evaluate—
The more they do this, the less useful Jiang Jingyuan will be, and that means danger.
but……
"So what?" Jiang Jingyuan said coldly in his heart.
She raised her eyes lightly, glanced at the woman in red in front of her, and said lightly: "A fake, do you think you are worthy?"
Inside the Red Killing Realm with the Silver Sachet, Xu Qinglin, who was sitting in front of the dressing table, silently glanced at the indifferent girl in white clothes outside.
"Ha..." The woman in red couldn't help but sneer when she heard the words, her hands either clenched into fists or curled into claws.
"Really?" Her eyes suddenly turned cold, and each move became more and more ruthless. Her gilded eyes stared at him coldly, and the corners of her mouth no longer showed the slightest curve. She whispered, "Don't worry, you will have it too..."
Those gilded eyes suddenly became filled with resentment. "You'd better pray that you can leave here, or just die."
Jiang Jingyuan's expression remained indifferent. He opened his mouth slightly and responded with only one sound:
"Oh……"
The sarcasm and contempt are extreme.
Seemingly dismissive, not even bothering to respond.
The red-clothed woman's face instantly became distorted, her right hand turned into a claw, and she fiercely stabbed at the white-clothed girl in front of her.
The layers of her white dress were like blooming flowers. She stomped her feet and turned quickly. Jiang Jingyuan looked at her with a mocking look, dodging and saying harshly, "It turns out you only learned the appearance and clothes. You didn't learn any of their skills."
"I'm hiding?" Jiang Jingyuan's voice was clear and icy, but her tone was filled with a strong sense of superiority and pity. "If it were those two, I wouldn't even have the chance to dodge. Not to mention now..."
Jiang Jingyuan curled his lips, "You don't have the ability to kill me in one fell swoop, so how do you know if I'm dodging you or if I'm just leading you in circles?"
Finally, she glanced at the woman in red with disdain, her lips curved with a noticeable curve as she whispered, "Fake."
The smile on Jiang Jingyuan's face became more and more obvious. With a light turn as if dancing, he put some distance between himself and the woman in red.
"you!!"
Her heart was beating wildly, and the woman in red had a ferocious expression on her face. Her eyes, filled with resentment and hatred, seemed to be stabbing the girl in white in front of her like a poisoned knife, as if she wanted to torture her to death. She suddenly rushed towards the white figure in front of her.
The five fingers of her right hand, with bulging veins, brushed against the flying black hair. Just as she was about to grab the neck of the girl in white, the girl in the ethereal white clothes glanced at her sideways and disappeared in an instant.
The hideous and distorted features on the red-dressed woman's face had not yet changed, but her gilded pupils suddenly shrank.
"Crackle..." Amid the sound of her spine grinding, she twisted around little by little, her eyes wide open in anger.
In the hazy darkness, a figure in white suddenly twisted and grew rapidly.
Jiang Jingyuan's figure fell behind her.
"It's really offensive to use someone else's appearance to make such an expression..." Jiang Jingyuan murmured softly, holding up the plum blossom sleeve arrow that looked like it was made of ice.
Her dark eyes were calm, deep, and unfathomable, like an endless abyss. She tilted her head.
"call out--"
The darkness in the white jade secret room surged wildly.
The ice arrow seemed to break through the darkness and headed straight towards the red-clothed figure in front who was bound by invisible spiritual power!
A meaningless growl, neither human nor beast, came from the throat of the man in red, and the woman in red began to struggle frantically.
brush--
The invisible spiritual power shattered, and the woman in red staggered two steps. The surface of her raised gilded eyes reflected the water-blue cold arrow.
Xu Qinglin, who was inside the Great Red Killing Realm, was observing the outside world. She felt that Jiang Jingyuan's every move was strangely familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before. She remained calm, thinking to herself, "So this is what the offspring of the Rong and Jiang families look like..."
What I fear most is that a madman can think. As expected, the most terrifying thing is whether he is crazy or not.
"clang!!"
A sharp silver-white cold light flashed in the darkness, and the swords suddenly collided.
"Eh?" Holding a long sword, Jiang Jingyuan's face looked dull and confused.
The red-clothed woman in front of him had a fierce look in her eyes. She raised her silver-white long sword in one hand and grabbed the icy arrow that had penetrated her left shoulder with the other hand, clenching it fiercely.
"Crack..."
The ice arrow instantly shattered into powder and disappeared into the darkness.
"Clang--" the swords and knives quickly distanced themselves from each other.
In the dim darkness, the woman in red lowered her head, her black hair slightly messy. Her body trembled, and she suddenly let out a low sneer.
"Damn! How come she's okay?!" Jiang Jingyuan quickly retreated with his sword in hand, muttering unconsciously in his heart, "It's over, the hatred value is maxed out..."
Jiang Jingyuan said in a daze in his mind: "Xu..."
"Don't call me."
Xu Qinglin's voice, numb and slightly sad, sounded in his mind, as if in the next moment Xu Qinglin would sigh again, "I have such a miserable life."
Jiang Jingyuan: "..."
"No, I'm really going to die this time." Jiang Jingyuan melted into the dark shadows, staring at the trembling figure in red with his head hanging in front of him, and quickly said in his mind, "You should use your brain and think of a solution, don't just stand there and watch!"
"Who told you to say that about her..."
Inside the killing zone, Xu Qinglin said with a melancholy look on his face, "What can I think of? I don't know this place well. I don't even know how you got that plum blossom sleeve arrow. What can I think of..."
She sighed sadly and gently, "Your life is truly wonderful. That's good too. Think about it, these experiences of yours are like living several more lives than others. That's enough..."
However, she didn't see any response from Jiang Jingyuan, either cold or warm, and she couldn't help but feel confused.
After a moment, Jiang Jingyuan uttered a soft "huh" and replied, "So when your sister ran away, you stayed and had someone merge into your magical weapon, right?"
After a pause, she said, "I thought of something, but I don't know if it's useful. What do you think?"
Xu Qinglin chuckled and said, "Now that things have come to this, why not give it a try?"
"uh-huh."
Jiang Jingyuan raised the corner of his mouth and suddenly emerged from the darkness.
"Da..." The small boots landed on the white jade ground, and Jiang Jingyuan's figure suddenly appeared in the dark white jade secret room.
Almost at the same time as she appeared, the figure in red not far away suddenly raised his head and rushed over like an arrow.
Accompanied by a low, suppressed, crazy roar——
"You still have the guts to come out and die!!!"
Jiang Jingyuan stood where she was, her steps not changing at all. She coldly looked at the red-clothed figure getting closer and closer to her. She turned her right wrist and grasped a dark green wooden pole with her five fingers. The lotus root powder and tender green lantern swayed slightly.
The faint blue flame danced, and a light blue, almost white, burst out from the center of the exquisite lantern, illuminating the surroundings.
"ah!!!"
A sharp scream suddenly exploded in the white jade secret room, and the blurred edges of dimness and darkness separated by the fire seemed to be rapidly intertwined and surging.
The red figure in the bright light twisted and transformed into an indescribable mass at a speed visible to the naked eye. Under the blue light, it screamed and gradually melted.
