Chapter 1185 He is no longer alone
Seeing the living Ye Linglong standing in front of him and her smiling and saying, "Long time no see", Mu Xiaoran suddenly felt that there was a breath of life in this deathly underworld.
As soon as she came, the coldness was dispelled by the warmth.
When she smiled, the whole world lit up for her.
He thought he would stay alone in this underworld where there were no strangers and no spring, until he completed his mission or until he died.
But he never thought that what he wanted to do was not yet completed, he was still alive and not dead, so he was no longer alone.
Many years passed, and he finally saw his junior sister again, a living junior sister.
He just stared at Ye Linglong blankly, his mouth open but unable to utter a word.
Ye Linglong saw that he was silent for a long time and thought something was wrong with him.
"Fifth Senior Brother, you won't doubt my identity, right? Even if my appearance and voice can be faked, no one can fake my two swords. Besides, the cloak I'm wearing was made for me by Third Senior Sister in Fukushima. You saw it with your own eyes..."
Before Ye Linglong could finish her words, Mu Xiaoran took two steps forward, opened his arms and held her in his arms.
He hugged Ye Linglong tightly, feeling the warmth of her body, the breath of her life, and the beating of her heart. Only then did he gradually believe and accept the fact that she had really come.
He was finally no longer alone.
Ye Linglong felt that Fifth Senior Brother's whole body was shaking slightly. Although he didn't say a word, his silence at this moment was worth more than a thousand words.
She thought about it, and for the first time after leaving the Nine Netherworlds and Eighteen Abysses, she took off the red cloak on her body, exposing her human aura and identity.
At this moment, on an unknown hilltop in the underworld, two humans radiating spiritual energy hugged each other.
"Junior sister..."
Mu Xiaoran's voice was a little hoarse. He was still suppressing his emotions, not letting them erupt too much.
Because he knew that the two of them were still in the underworld, there were still many dangers around them, and they had to suppress and hide themselves.
"Fifth Brother, I found you, and from this moment on, I will never be separated from you again. I will find all the brothers and sisters I lost, one by one."
Mu Xiaoran took a deep breath, and after a long time, he finally uttered only those three words.
"Junior sister..."
"Do you have anything else to do? It doesn't matter, I'll accompany you."
"good."
"Not only me, but also Second Senior Brother. I brought Second Senior Brother with me as well!"
Mu Xiaoran was stunned for a moment. He let go of Ye Linglong and put the cloak she had taken off back on her. The yin energy here was strong and the cloak could block the energy and cause less harm to her.
"Is Second Brother here too?"
"It wasn't a trap you set. He stepped into it and was beaten up by the ghost beast you summoned?"
Ye Linglong laughed as he spoke, and his words were full of intent to sow discord.
"So, that demon soul is my second senior brother? I saw two ghosts and a demon soul. Their cultivation levels were not lower than mine. I was afraid of exposing myself so I didn't get too close. I watched carefully."
"Yes." Ye Linglong smiled and said, "There's no other way. He wants to follow me into the core area behind the underworld. The demons definitely can't get in, but demon souls can. Just like you hid your body and sneaked in as a human soul, didn't you?"
"Have you been in the underworld for a long time?"
"Not long." Ye Linglong counted on his fingers: "Probably just over a month."
Mu Xiaoran looked at Ye Linglong in surprise.
"He's only been here for a little over a month, and he's already been able to complete the process of his soul leaving his body and preserving his body?"
"yes."
"Your idea?"
"Not really. Those ghost messengers gave me the idea. We were new here and didn't know anything. I tricked three ghost messengers to come and serve as my followers. They helped me solve any problems I encountered."
"So you made it all the way here with their help?"
"yes."
…
It sounds very outrageous, but when this happens to my junior sister, it doesn't seem so outrageous.
Every step she took was on the edge of a cliff, but she managed to perform a miracle by bouncing along.
Seeing that Mu Xiaoran was digesting these things, Ye Linglong took out two spiritual fruits from the space, handed one to him, and ate one himself.
The rich spiritual energy entered between their lips and teeth, and at that moment both of them felt that the world had become much brighter.
After being outside for so long, I still miss the atmosphere of the human world.
"Fifth Brother, why are you in the underworld?"
"When I was traveling from the lower immortal realm to the upper immortal realm, I was sent to the underworld by the formation in the passage."
Ye Linglong, who was chewing a fruit, was stunned for a moment. This means that Fifth Senior Brother has never even been to the world of immortal cultivation?
The second senior brother somehow went to the upper immortal world, where he met the people sent by Manshuqi to find and silence him, and then he followed them to the demon world.
As a result, the fifth brother was taken to the underworld in the ascending channel?
How scared he must be to end up in this place for no apparent reason!
"So, this is another trick of the master?"
“Perhaps.”
Ye Linglong's brows suddenly wrinkled.
"But that's not right. When you entered the City of the Dead, you wore a magic weapon that made it impossible to remember your face. It looked like you came prepared, not accidentally."
"How do you know I'm wearing the magic weapon that can make me forget my face?"
"Because you are wanted by the whole underworld, but no one can draw your portrait. The whole underworld knows this."
Mu Xiaoran chuckled: "Junior sister is really well-informed. I came in unexpectedly, but I was well prepared."
Seeing Ye Linglong's surprised look, Mu Xiaoran began to explain to her slowly.
"Because when I was sent to the underworld, I had a ring in my hand. The ring contained many things I needed in the underworld, including the magic weapon, the Forgotten Mask you mentioned.
In addition to this, there is also a soul-gathering bead, a space mirror, a picture of a world-destroying three-eyed evil ghost, and many underworld stones.
The Mask of Forgetting can make people unable to remember what I look like, the Soul Gathering Orb can allow me to leave my physical body and sneak into the City of the Dead without being noticed, and there is a small world inside the space mirror. The spiritual energy in this small world is rich and endless, which can provide me with cultivation.
These are the most important things I need to survive in the underworld. They were all prepared for me the moment I fell into the underworld.
As for the picture of the world-destroying three-eyed evil spirit, it was a task assigned to me.
In other words, I happened to encounter an organization arranged by someone in the ascending channel. After it was triggered, I fell here and received a task.
Originally, I thought that after I had settled down in the underworld, I would find an opportunity to leave here and return to the world of immortal cultivation. What does the mission have to do with me? Who knows who is behind this prank.
