Chapter 129 The Truth (2)
"Let me think, how old was Li Zhibai at that time? Fourteen? Fifteen?"
Seeing Master Feng stunned, Li Daoxuan fanned the flames: "Then let me be frank. The person who killed your Ran Ran was the one you were protecting behind the scenes. How come you are now acting like a dog to your enemy?"
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Daoxuan made a sword flower with the peach wood sword in his hand and picked up the inner elixir he had just formed.
In order to prevent someone from helping him to form the elixir again, Li Daoxuan smashed his dantian into pieces.
Li Daoxuan drew back his sword and said, "Tsk!", "It's really hard to kill."
First the corpses were destroyed, and then the demon pills were shattered. The two demons were able to drag their broken bodies and survive for so long, and later they were even able to form pills.
It can be said to be difficult to kill.
It is rare that Li Zhibai cares about him so much, he is actually his own brother.
Commander Feng's body swayed, and then he knelt on the ground, his head drooping limply. He had no strength to stand anymore.
A red mist suddenly appeared and wrapped around Master Feng's body. Li Daoxuan thought about it and did not stop it, allowing the evil spirit to take Master Feng away.
It would be very exciting to see dogs fighting each other.
.
Many of Li Daoxuan's men had experienced fighting on the battlefield, while the soldiers raised by Li Zhibai were accustomed to a life of luxury. Many of them had never even tasted blood with their swords. Naturally, they were not as fierce as Li Daoxuan's soldiers. Li Zhibai and his men were beaten back step by step.
Looking at Li Daoxuan and his group approaching, Li Zhibai said, "Master Ranran, Master Ranran! Where have you been?"
Li Daoxuan pursed his lips and said, "You and your eldest brother flew away. They don't want you anymore."
Li Zhibai's face was gloomy. He took out a pair of finger bones from his arms. He didn't know what he did. Shi Ranran, with a very bad face, suddenly appeared in front of Li Zhibai holding the master Feng.
"Hurry up, put down Changfeng, hurry up!" Li Zhibai roared.
Shi Ranran glanced at Li Zhibai with an ambiguous expression, then looked at Shi Changfeng, who was breathing weakly in his arms.
Commander Feng squeezed her palm imperceptibly, with a soothing look in his eyes.
Shi Ranran kept her head down, and the emotion in her eyes was unclear.
Seeing the two demons still wasting time, Li Zhibai urged them, "Stop wasting time! They're right in front of you! I didn't raise you two demons until now just to watch you two being affectionate!"
The Happy Funeral Demon suddenly glared at Li Zhibai, "Are you blind? Can't you see that he can't move anymore?"
Li Zhibai pursed his lips, stared at her sinisterly and said, "So what?"
The Happy Funeral Demon's expression suddenly changed, and he stared at him intently, his eyes looking as if he wanted to dig a hole in him.
Li Zhibai had long been accustomed to her moody look and pinched a pair of finger bones in his hand.
The Happy Funeral Demon seemed to be in great pain, her demonic power suddenly spread out, she covered her head and screamed in pain.
Li Zhibai said: "Hurry up!"
The Happy Funeral Demon said, "I'll do it, I'll do it, alright! Damn it, stop pushing me!"
Li Zhibai was still not satisfied, so he activated the curse on his finger bones again, and only then did he feel relieved.
Shi Ranran put down his master's command, stood up shakily, and walked towards Li Daoxuan step by step.
She walked so slowly that Li Zhibai couldn't bear to watch and stared at her back.
What no one noticed was that Commander Feng on the ground had disappeared at some point in time. Only Li Daoxuan noticed it with his sharp eyes. He curled his lips, crossed his arms, and there was a hint of watching a show in his eyes.
Shi Ranran looked a little absent-minded, and it was unknown whether Master Feng had told Shi Ranran the truth.
Shen Youan always loved to watch the show. He felt a little regretful. It was a pity that she was not there, otherwise he would have enjoyed watching it to great pleasure, and might even have added fuel to the fire.
Thinking of Chen Qing, Li Daoxuan's patience was somewhat exhausted. He wanted to finish these things quickly and go back to see her as soon as possible.
Shi Ranran finally got closer.
Li Zhibai's eyes were always glued to Shi Ranran's back. When she stretched out her claws, Li Zhibai held his breath.
At the critical moment, a string of finger bones in his hand was suddenly taken away by someone. Upon closer inspection, he saw that it was Commander Feng who took the things away with his last breath.
Li Zhibai's face twisted for a moment, then he smiled again.
"Changfeng, it's useless. Even if you take away the finger bone, you two demons will still be in the same fate, still under my shackles, but you will only lose a finger bone."
Master Feng said lightly: "Of course I know." He flashed to the side of Shi Ranran, forced all the demonic power in his body into Shi Ranran's body, then chanted a series of spells and squeezed his palm hard.
Shi Ranran only felt a warm current rushing through her meridians, making them numb. When she turned around, she saw that her teacher Changfeng had crushed the part of her finger bone that was used to carry the "Life and Death Together" curse. Her knuckles withered at a visible speed, turning into black ash and falling down.
Commander Feng's body was beginning to disintegrate from his feet. His grayish-white robe lost its shape first, followed by his waist, abdomen, and chest, like sand crushed by an invisible wind.
He felt neither pain nor fear, he just tilted his head slightly, his eyes fixed on her face.
The moment his demonic power was exhausted, his shoulders turned to ashes.
Shi Ranran watched his jawline blur and disappear, leaving only his eyes still bright, staring at her stubbornly.
Until the last trace of demonic power merged into her body, his eyes never closed. Along with them, they turned to ashes, along with the last two words that escaped from his lips - "Ran Ran."
His body dissipated. Shi Ranran reached out to grab it, but her fingertips only passed through a cold void.
Commander Feng is dead.
The finger bones were destroyed, and the backlash force was completely absorbed by Master Feng, and Master Ranran was free.
He chose to perish along with his enemy, passing all his demonic power to Shi Ranran, and then lured the backlash from Shi Ranran onto himself, helping Shi Ranran regain his freedom at the cost of his life.
From then on, Master Ranran felt relaxed and would no longer be bound by the "Life and Death Together" curse, nor would she be controlled by Li Zhibai's curse through her finger bones.
Li Zhibai's eyes were about to burst: "No——"
He said, "I never wanted you to die! I just, I just--" His words stopped abruptly.
Shi Ranran was free, and suddenly bared her fangs. She said, "Idiot."
But a scene flashed through her mind. He smiled and said, "If you don't like this surname, just take my surname and call me Shi Ranran, okay?"
Her heart felt heavy and she felt very uncomfortable. Shi Ranran's face darkened. She was about to take advantage of the chaos to escape, but suddenly turned back halfway. She said, "You should go and accompany him!"
The words were directed at Li Zhibai.
Li Zhibai was unconvinced and said, "You are the one who should be accompanying him! I was kind enough to resurrect you, but you treat me like this!"
Shi Ranran said sharply, "How dare you say that! I'm in this state, all thanks to you! The person who wanted to kill me wasn't a member of the Shen family at all, it was yours, right?"
"Changfeng told me a long time ago that the reason you claimed to be a member of the Shen family was just to deceive me and trick me into destroying the Shen family for you! You are full of lies and you have killed your brothers and sisters. You have really learned the coldness of Emperor Jingren to the letter!"
Li Zhibai said, "Shut up! I'm not like him! In order to cover up the truth about the wrongful killing of the Gao family, he directly ordered 30,000 people to be imprisoned alive in Guisui Hill, causing the Gao family to become so controversial. In terms of coldness, how can I compare to him!"
Li Daoxuan suddenly opened his eyes.
He said, "What do you mean?"
Li Zhibai laughed heartily. "You don't know yet, do you? Actually, when Emperor Jingren sent people to seal Guisou Slope, the Gao family army hadn't completely perished yet! They were struggling to hold on, waiting for supplies and support from the imperial court. It was precisely because your mother knew the Gao family army was still alive that she escaped from the palace and headed alone to Guisou Slope, hoping to break the seal single-handedly."
"Even if your mother was proficient in Taoist magic, so what? Even if she cared about the people, so what? She was still pissed off to death! To be more precise, she died of exhaustion and grief." He sighed, "What a female bodhisattva, so compassionate to the world."
Li Daoxuan's face was so gloomy that ink could drip out of it.
"So, he was yours in the beginning?"
Li Zhibai knew what he was asking and denied it, "No, it's not me. Is it your bad luck that your tendons and veins were broken? Who knew you would run after a stranger without saying a word? How stupid."
Li Daoxuan said nothing, but rubbed the gold bead hanging on his chest with his palm through a layer of cloth.
This was all that was left of his mother. A rib. The only part of her body he had a chance to hold onto.
My stomach started to churn and I felt extremely uncomfortable.
Li Daoxuan frowned, closed his eyes and said, "A quick fight and a quick decision."
The Happy Funeral Demon didn't even care about Li Daoxuan and went straight for Li Zhibai.
Li Zhibai has some skills, but he does not know Taoist magic, nor would he have expected that his master Feng would choose to perish together with his master to help his master Ranran regain his freedom.
This scene was something he had never imagined.
The Shi family army will arrive in a few days. It will be soon. There will come a time when you, Li Daoxuan, can no longer smile. Li Zhibai thought.
He lay down in a panic, dodging Shi Ranran's attack. He frantically pulled out a crumpled talisman from his pocket and tore it into pieces.
Li Daoxuan saw his little movement clearly, frowned and took a step forward, but it was still too late.
Li Zhibai was surrounded by white light, and then he disappeared.
Li Daoxuan followed the place where he disappeared and found a talisman torn into two pieces.
It's a teleportation talisman.
The host was so generous that he was willing to give him the extremely precious teleportation talisman.
Li Daoxuan's brows were gloomy, and he said, "The rest of the people will stay outside the palace and search every inch."
Although the teleportation talisman is extremely precious, it has limitations. The longest distance it can teleport is from one side of the palace to the other, and even the location cannot be determined.
Such a big person, you can always find it.
As for the monster that likes funerals.
He coldly swung out the peach wood sword and nailed the Happy Funeral Demon to the ground.
“Ahhhhhh—”
Shi Ranran cried out in pain.
Li Daoxuan: "Chen Youan has no grudge against you, but you have tried to attack her several times. It seems that I cannot let you go."
Shi Ranran said, "It was Li Zhibai! Li Zhibai lied to me! He was the one who said that the people who harmed me were from the Shen family!"
"You believe everything he says, idiot." Li Daoxuan drew his sword swiftly, without further ado, and prepared to strike again.
The stab missed.
A wisp of black smoke swept Shi Ranran away at lightning speed.
The corners of Li Daoxuan's eyes twitched.
It’s really hard to kill him.
Tsk.
