Chapter 281 The Ghost Blood Vine Leaves
Zhong Hanshang lowered his head in silence, without making any excuses for himself.
He knew that all this was the retribution he deserved.
Huo Huo's misfortune was indeed caused by him.
If only he had been honest... if only he had woken up from his coma sooner...
Countless "ifs" swirled in his mind, each one cutting into his heart like a knife.
Ying stood aside. Although he had the responsibility to protect Zhong Hanshang, he also knew that this was not the time for him to intervene.
He could only cough lightly and change the subject: "Where is Huo Huo's clone? Can you take us there to see? Maybe there will be some clues."
When Zhong Hanshang saw Princess Huohuo lying there quietly, his heart instantly tightened.
Especially when he saw the face that looked so much like Gao Huohuo, he felt as if he saw her in person.
Princess Huohuo was secretly sent back by Li Wen and Wang Lei at a risky cost.
Ever since the news of Zhong Hanshang's half-demon identity spread, Qingyun Sect became the target of public criticism.
The disciples of the sect could not even raise their heads when walking outside, except the Holy Maiden of the Liuli Sect who kept defending Zhong Hanshang.
This action not only won the favor of the disciples of Qingyun Sect, but also changed the views of Zhong Hanshang's admirers towards the Saint.
But at this moment, Zhong Hanshang didn't care about these things.
The only thing he was concerned about was the safety of his master Dongfang Han.
When he learned that his master had been recalled to the sect by the sect leader Li Qingde, he felt relieved.
In Qingyun Sect, except for his master and the sect leader, everyone else has always been distant from him.
The elders and disciples had repeatedly expressed their dissatisfaction with him, both openly and covertly. The situation did not improve until he broke through to the Nascent Soul stage at the age of sixteen.
Now he only wants to find Gao Huohuo. Zhong Hanshang knows that she has a clone in the demon clan.
In order to ensure that Ying does not tell anyone what happened today, he can only make him swear an oath to heaven first.
After completing the oath to heaven, he began to ask about the demon clan's clones.
Ying didn't expect that Gao Huohuo, who was only at the Nascent Soul stage, actually had two clones.
And judging from the looks of it, the clone's cultivation is even higher than her original body.
No wonder she was able to smash through his bedroom on her own.
At the same time, in the demon clan, the territory of the Mandragora flower demon.
As early as a month ago, Manman suddenly returned late at night, which made the leader of the Mandragora Flower tribe feel that something was wrong.
Later, when he learned that she had actually brought the unconscious Chen Wan'er back, Manman's father suddenly panicked.
Chen Wan'er's status in the demon clan has been getting higher and higher in recent years.
Princess Mu Ling alone forced all the demon tribes to submit to her.
Later on, he even became equal to the famous Blood Demon of the demon clan, which was enough to shock all the demons.
Moreover, she also subdued the Ghost Blood Vine, one of the four most ferocious creatures of the demon race, with her own strength.
Now this legendary figure appears in the tribe unconscious. If the news leaks out, the Mandragora tribe will be in great disaster.
But he was also worried that a legendary figure like Chen Wan'er would come to settle the score with him when she woke up.
After weighing the pros and cons, they could only take Manman and Chen Wan'er to the forbidden area of their clan.
He blocked all news and left Manman alone to guard this place.
Just after everything was settled, Manman received news from Ye Lingyu.
"Manman, how is your sister Chen these days?"
It seemed like an ordinary greeting, but Manman heard a hidden meaning.
"Sister Ye, Sister Chen suddenly fell into a coma a few days ago. I have brought her back to our Mandragora Flower Clan."
At the same time, Manman realized that Chen Wan'er was just a clone of Ye Lingyu's junior sister.
Her real body must have been in danger, so her clone fell into a coma.
Today, Manman suddenly discovered that the bracelet on Chen Wan'er's hand was missing, so she hurriedly called her father.
"Father, Sister Chen is still here. How did the Ghost Blood Vine suddenly disappear?"
Upon hearing this, the leader of the Mandragora Flower tribe checked everything up and down, frowning.
"Chen Wan'er is obviously just in a coma. The Ghost Blood Vine shouldn't abandon its master."
Although over the years, I have never heard of a vicious creature recognizing a human as its master.
But it is said that the ghost blood vine has always been tamed very well by Chen Wan'er, and no one has ever seen such an obedient ghost blood vine.
As soon as he finished speaking, he received a message from Ye Lingyu, "Manman, has your sister Chen changed today?"
"Sister Ye, the ghost blood vine in Sister Chen's hand is gone, and Father doesn't know why.
Is there anything I can do to help?”
Inside the Shadow Moon Sect, everyone hurriedly checked the Evil-Breaking Hairpin on Princess Huohuo's head and found it intact.
It seems that the intelligent ghost blood vine sensed the danger to its host and left on its own.
This news made everyone even more anxious, and they all asked to find Gao Huohuo immediately.
"Nonsense!" Shen Cangxuan shouted, "I know you are all worried about Huo Huo, but this is a special period, and there are more important things."
Lou Chongxiao muttered softly, "My junior sister is missing, what else could be more important than her?"
Originally, Zhong Hanshang and the others were not coming today, and they were about to go out to look for their junior sister.
Shen Cangxuan glanced at him before continuing:
“Before, when Princess Huohuo was still around, the Yin spirits could still be controlled.
Now that your junior sister has fallen, the Qingyun Sect has been affected, and the human race's situation is more critical than before, are you all going to just abandon it?"
After these words were spoken, Lou Chongxiao shrank back in embarrassment.
"Don't you know why your junior sister risked her life to send her clone back to the human race?" Shen Cangxuan asked in a deep voice.
It is precisely because they know this that they want to rescue their junior sister even more.
Zhong Hanshang stepped forward and expressed his opinion in time.
"Master, I'll return to the Demon Clan to find Huo Huo. With the Demon Lord Ying here..."
Before Zhong Hanshang could finish speaking, Ye Lingyu was the first to object.
"I don't agree. Junior Sister is missing because of you two. I must go there myself this time."
"I'm going too." Lou Chongxiao said immediately afterwards.
Bai He was about to express his opinion, but Shen Cangxuan had already made his decision.
"Well, you two can go with us, and everyone else can stay with the human race and wait for news.
The people left behind by your junior sister have suffered heavy losses. While you are there to help, please investigate Han Shang's identity and how it was revealed.
Ye Lingyu said coldly: "Why should we worry about other people's affairs? The Saint of Liuli Sect is very attentive all day long."
As soon as these words came out, everyone who had originally forgotten about this matter stared at him coldly.
Shen Cangxuan said meaningfully: “Han Shang, although my little apprentice is usually a bit noisy, he is smart, lively and cute.
If your heart belongs to someone else, there is no need for you to make this trip. He is my own disciple, and we will save him ourselves."
Upon hearing this, Ying looked at Zhong Hanshang thoughtfully.
If Zhong Hanshang really had an affair with that saint, perhaps he could take advantage of the situation.
As long as he can practice dual cultivation with Huo Huo, his strength will be greatly improved, and he can also get the support of the Shadow Moon Sect.
Although Master Gao Huohuo's sect is not large, each of them is a top master.
They were also reasonable and accepted Zhong Hanshang's identity well.
