Chapter 139

Beep——
In the dim cave, the red light on the watch flickered.
However, the owner of the watch had no time to pay attention.
Shi Hanqiao sat cross-legged on the ground, pouring all his spiritual power into his hands, and lowered his head to carve a piece of jade.
Rebuilding the body of Hunyuan Ling is both simple and difficult.
She needs to use her own spiritual power to carve out its original appearance.
Fortunately, for a long time after Luo Wei's death, Shi Hanqiao had the habit of holding the Hunyuan Bell.
It's easy to carve.
The difficulty is that she cannot make any mistakes.
The Hunyuan Bell is an ancient divine object, and its exquisiteness is far beyond the ability of ordinary people to replicate.
Moreover, during the carving process, she must concentrate highly and cannot pause for a moment.
She used her own spiritual power as a guide to connect the jade stone and the soul of Hunyuan Bell.
The young man in spirit form was standing beside her, yawning uncontrollably.
In order not to disturb her carving, he didn't even say a word!
But it's really boring if I don't talk.
He now has to stay with Shi Hanqiao and cannot return to her spiritual palace.
He floated around, observing this cave that was neither too big nor too small.
It is about three meters high, surrounded by stone walls and has no passages.
Shi Hanqiao was teleported here.
There are four crystal stones for lighting at the four corners, a round table in the middle, and the black jade is placed on the round table.
The Hunyuan Bell circled around the stone wall again and again, waiting boredly for her to finish carving.
After turning around for an unknown number of times, the young man suddenly stopped floating, his eyes suddenly widened, and he reached out to touch the stone wall.
However, in his soul state, he could not touch any real objects.
"hour--"
He turned around and called out to her, but a huge force came from him, grabbing him tightly and dragging him into the completed bell.
The jade is white and as delicate as fat, exactly the same as its original body.
Sweat slid down her tight jawline and dripped onto the ground.
Shi Hanqiao held the bell, stood up, and then looked around the cave.
The watch screen popped up, and Shi Qi's message was displayed on it.
Luo Wusheng was taken away?
Hunyuan Ling felt a little uncomfortable, as he and Shi Hanqiao had always been inseparable.
She left for Xuan Yu. If she hadn't left, Luo Wusheng wouldn't have been taken away.
Although Hunyuan Ling was still a little repulsed by the young man, she didn't want anything to happen to him.
A dark vortex appeared behind Shi Hanqiao, and he immediately realized that she was going to move back.
[Wait! There's something wrong with the wall!]
In order to ensure that the Hunyuan Bell soul was perfectly integrated into the new body, Shi Hanqiao withdrew her own spiritual power the moment he entered, and the boy was unable to transmit sound to her because of the fusion.
He was so anxious that he ignored the fact that she couldn't hear him, and just kept shouting, trying to stop her from stepping into the space vortex.
No, no, no!!!
Girl A was completely deaf to the boy's cries and stepped straight into the dark vortex.

"Who are you?"
Luo Wusheng woke up in a dark and damp cave.
The crystal stone lit up, and the darkness in the cave instantly turned into day.
The young man raised his hands to shield his eyes, slowly adjusted to the light, and slowly sat up.
He was in a cave with intricate patterns painted on the ground.
Life-changing talisman? ! !
No, it's different!
He looked down at the lines under his feet, which were different from the life-changing talisman.
The young man found himself unable to get up from the ground, so he tried to break free from the invisible restraints while glaring at the woman standing outside the pattern.
"What do you want to do? One of the conditions for the success of the life-changing talisman is that both parties are willing. I can't be willing!"
"You know quite a bit."
Shi Hanqiao squatted down slowly, touching the modified part with his fingertips. "But I wonder if you noticed the changes in the pattern here."
His eyes suddenly shrank, and he tried his best to control his voice so that it wouldn't tremble.
"You want to take over my body?!"
“No——” The young man took a deep breath, remained calm, and his brain worked rapidly.
"Who are you trying to take my body for?"
Her fingertips froze as they touched the pale golden lines on the ground. She remained in the same posture for a long time without looking up.
"Is it 'me'?"
Luo Wusheng's voice was as light as a feather, but it sounded as heavy as Mount Tai to 'her' ears.
'She' quickly raised her head, a shadow drifting through the air, and her white fingertips fiercely pinched his neck.
The young man had difficulty breathing and felt a strong sense of suffocation in his neck, but he still challenged.
"It seems I guessed right."
Shi Hanqiao's heart was beating fast, and his dark eyes stared at him coldly, as if he would kill him if he continued.
Luo Wusheng smiled, with the corners of his mouth turned up.
"You wouldn't dare."
"If you really wanted to kill me, you could have killed me a long time ago instead of bringing me here."
The curve of his mouth widened. "My living body is still useful to you."
Before he finished speaking, the young man pressed the back of her hand.
Even though his breathing became more difficult, he did not let go.
The voice also became low and hoarse.
"Now you should answer my question."
"Who am I? I told you I am—"
Before Shi Hanqiao could utter three words, the young man's voice interrupted her.
"Is Luo Wei's death related to you?!"
"Luo Wei? Who is Luo Wei?"
Shi Hanqiao was obviously stunned, not understanding why he suddenly asked a stranger.
"Who is Luo Wei to you?"
'She' stared at his expression, her curiosity magnified infinitely.
The phoenix eyes moved slightly.
"You don't know Luo Wei."
"Luo Wei, Luo Wei..."
Shi Hanqiao repeated these two words softly.
"Why do you ask Luo Wei?"
'She' raised her eyes to look at him.
Luo Wusheng's voice was noticeably hoarse.
"You haven't answered my question yet. Now I'm threatening you, not you questioning me."
Shi Hanqiao pulled his hand away and lowered his eyes in thought.
'She' didn't know Luo Wei, but she felt that the name was very familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere.
'She' lived too long, and many things were buried by time, so she couldn't remember them clearly.
What’s past is past.
'She' only cares about the present and the future.
Their future.
Luo Wusheng took out a knife and pointed it at his neck.
With his dark eyes suddenly shrinking, he chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I won't commit suicide."
"I was just thinking of something that might bother you."
The young man put down the knife and gently touched the blade with his other hand. A little force might make a wound.
"I don't mind having a small scar on my body."
Phoenix eyes fixed on 'her', and he changed the subject, "But you would care, right? After all, 'I' would care."
"I think 'he' must be someone who can see the big picture from the smallest details. Wherever he goes, he leaves traces. Do you think 'he' will discover anything?"
He is the only one here. Even if 'she' has received the life-changing talisman and can let others take over his body without his consent, the other subject may not be willing.
If 'Shi Hanqiao' had been operating on the Capital Star for many years not for Shi Hanqiao, but for his health.
As a hostage, Luo Wusheng took the initiative. After all, there were only two of them in the cave, and the other person was not there.
There could be many reasons why the other party is not here, but one of them is that Shi Hanqiao definitely doesn't want the other party to find out that they have changed their core.
He noticed this from the subtle movements of her eyes.
'She' narrowed her eyes slightly, with an unfriendly look in her eyes.
"Don't look at me like that. Even if I die, I want to die knowingly."
Luo Wusheng looked calm on the surface, but he was tense inside.
He didn't want to die, he believed Shi Hanqiao would find him.
But he had to find a way to delay time first. It would be even better if he could save himself, so as to prevent Woman A from falling into danger.
"You seemed to be reminiscing just now. If you really didn't know who Luo Wei was, you wouldn't have that expression."
Since he couldn't get up anyway, the young man sat cross-legged on the ground, holding the knife calmly.
After spending so much time with Shi Hanqiao, he had some of her shadow on him. He would not miss even the smallest details of the enemy, so as to find out their flaws and be invincible.
'She' guessed his intention: "Are you stalling for time?"
Talk about something else.
Luo Wusheng knew that he had guessed correctly, and he became more confident. "You should quickly think about where you have heard of Luo Wei's name."
He was entangled in Luo Wei's problem because of Shi Hanqiao.
From her memory, the young man saw how the old woman died - Shi Hanqiao ended her life with his own hands.
——Under Luo Wei’s earnest pleading.
