Chapter 94: Unexpectedly, this clone is perfect, and unlike the previous ones...
This clone was perfect, completely different from the emotionless flesh puppets before, but Xu Hui did not forget the first clone of Yi Qingxue they saw, which was exactly the same as the real person.
So when Xu Hui handed him the pill just now, she was careful, and it turned out that they were not exactly the same.
It was hard to explain the feeling, but she just sensed that something was amiss with this clone. Perhaps it was her natural affinity for plants that made her very sensitive to scents.
This was the case with the demons Fentian and Yi Qingxue before, and it is the same with this clone.
Since she felt something was wrong, she acted without hesitation, because she was very sure that if it was the real Wei Mubai, she would not succeed no matter what.
Sure enough, this clone was pierced through by her sword!
His hand trembled, and the spiritual power gathered at the tip of the sword suddenly exploded, blowing him into pieces and blood splattering everywhere.
Xu Hui took a few steps back in disgust, looked at the messy corridor, frowned, and decided to go back to the main hall first.
She is not familiar with battle formations or anything like that, so it's better for her not to wander around.
If Wei Mubai finds something wrong, he will definitely come to find her.
Thinking of this, he turned around and saw Wei Mubai standing at the entrance of the passage not far away. His expression was natural, and he was only slightly surprised.
Xu Hui was stunned, and the tip of the sword suddenly pointed at him, condensing with powerful sword intent.
Wei Mubai just lightly tapped the sword, and the sword's intent dissipated. At the same time, the sword spontaneously combusted without fire, and white flames rose up, burning the top-grade spiritual sword with a buzzing sound.
Xu Hui only felt a buzzing sound in her ears, and it seemed as if something collapsed in front of her eyes, and she returned to reality.
Looking around, people were still in that passage, and there were still corpses and countless body parts scattered everywhere.
"This is..." She looked at the sword and threw it to the ground. She saw a puff of black smoke rising from it, accompanied by a shrill scream. After a while, the black smoke was swallowed by the leaping white flames.
"Am I trapped in an illusion?" Xu Hui frowned, but the scene now was almost exactly the same as before.
"It's the demonic mind charm technique," Wei Mubai said. "When you were fighting Fentian, he wanted to use it on you, but you were not only wearing the Shard Silk vestments, but also the Shining Golden Lotus, so the charm was useless against you. So he had to settle for the next best thing and put the heart charm on the spirit sword. You kept using it against the enemy, and unknowingly fell for it."
What a cunning demon! Even after death, you still plot against others!
Xu Hui curled her lips, "What is the charm technique?"
A smile flashed in Wei Mubai's eyes. "The Heart Charm Technique can only be used by high-level demons who have burned their hearts and souls. Simply put, it is to confuse the mind. Usually, they use it to charm the person they like, making the other person gradually fall in love with them."
Xu Hui nodded in understanding. This was the method Fentian used on Yi Qingxue. Otherwise, according to Yi Qingxue's character, she should be a cold, ruthless and cautious heroine. How could she easily accept a demon and take risks for him?
A heroine like this should be saved again and again before she can open her heart.
"That's not right," she suddenly realized something was wrong, "It's impossible for Fentian to like me, so why would he use his charm on me?"
She was not so narcissistic as to think that she could surpass the heroine Yi Qingxue and make Fentian fall in love with her at first sight.
"So he used another method on you," Wei Mubai smiled, and there seemed to be stars twinkling in his eyes as he looked at her. "Your strength has surpassed his. He knows he is no match for you, but he is unwilling to do nothing. So he took advantage of the opportunity when you hurt him to integrate the condensed blood heart charm into the spirit sword. This touch of heart charm will amplify your dissatisfaction with me. When the emotion grows stronger, that will be the time when we turn against each other."
Xu Hui suddenly realized, "This inner charm is to make me hate you, despise you, and even want to kill you?"
"Yes, it only affects your emotions, it doesn't mean you are hallucinating," Wei Mubai nodded.
"Then why I was so irritable just now..." Xu Hui immediately felt relieved. It was not her fault. She was angry for a reason.
She said that she had inherited all of Yi Qingxue's wealth, which was dozens of times her previous property. She should have been overjoyed, but how could she be so irritable and ruthless to Wei Mubai's clone? It must have been Xin Mei's fault.
Unexpectedly, Wei Mubai shook his head, his tone raised, with a relaxed smile, "You are not dissatisfied with me, not even a trace of resentment, so you are not affected at all."
"Ah? Really?" Xu Hui herself was a little bit unbelievable. Did she have such a good feeling towards Wei Mubai?
The evil magic of mind charm is actually very powerful and hard to guard against!
You know, how can there be no friction when people get along with each other?
As long as there is friction, there will be resentment. When ordinary people feel resentful, they will argue and quarrel, and then the matter will pass and the emotions will dissipate.
But the heart charm will magnify resentment, and it will never be eliminated. Sooner or later, the resentment will grow to the point where it cannot be contained, and you may even kill the other party to eliminate the hatred in your heart!
Fentian's plan was extremely clever. By then, either Xu Hui would take advantage of Wei Mubai's trust to attack him, or Wei Mubai would notice and kill her.
However, Wei Mubai said that she didn't have any resentment towards him at all. Is that impossible?
You know, she had complaints about her biological mother, blaming her for being too strict with her, and her father, blaming him for being too kind. If she hadn't saved that person, she would have always been loved by her father.
However, this emotion was quickly resolved by herself. Under her mother's guidance, she learned to look at the world rationally, face her own emotions, and then digest them.
She clearly understood that those thoughts were wrong, so she gradually eliminated these negative emotions.
But she is just an ordinary person, and it is normal for her to have negative emotions, so she doesn't really believe what Wei Mubai said.
Even if she rationally knew that Wei Mubai was good, very good, and even perhaps... maybe... she had some feelings for him, it didn't mean that he was perfect in her heart, right? After all, she still felt resentful about the pain of being trapped in the medicine pool and having her essence and marrow washed away.
Wei Mubai was actually quite surprised. He knew that his young fiancée had good character. In fact, she had advantages that ordinary people did not have, that is, she was rational enough, not easily swayed by emotions, and had a clear understanding of things.
Even though some of her views are strange and inappropriate, her logic is self-consistent, so self-consistent that it can dominate emotions.
Most people cannot do this. They will be swayed by their emotions and then lose control and make all kinds of wrong choices. That is why monks need to temper their minds in the world.
And Xu Hui was born with a strong heart!
But this doesn't mean that she is strong enough to have no negative emotions towards him at all. This is really beyond his expectation, but also... makes him particularly happy!
"As long as you have a trace of resentment, the heart charm will be implanted in your heart, instead of staying on the sword and being seen by me," Wei Mubai explained softly with a smile in his eyes.
In fact, he had been there all the time, so it didn't take too much time to deal with Xu Hui's clone, just a quarter of an hour.
Then he came and happened to see Xu Hui killing his clones in all directions, and was extremely active.
He immediately sensed something was wrong; she seemed to be in an exceptionally high spirit.
Afterwards, he used his spiritual sense to carefully investigate and discovered that the spiritual sword she used actually had a heart charm!
Once this kind of thing is planted, you can only rely on yourself to get rid of it. Asking outsiders to help will only make the problem worse.
So he stayed aside and let Xu Hui vent her anger on his clone. After she had eliminated some of her resentment and left here, he would find a way to help her get rid of it completely.
However, unexpectedly, the heart charm was still on the spiritual sword and had not been implanted into her heart along with the spiritual power.
So he burned it without hesitation.
"Uh, is that so?" Xu Hui was also unsure. "Perhaps it was the work of Jiaosha and Zhaoshi Jinlian. Fentian wanted to plant it on me, but it didn't succeed. Maybe they blocked the spiritual sword?"
She tried to explain, feeling that this made more sense.
Wei Mubai smiled and shook his head, "You seem very excited to kill those clones?"
"No way!" Xu Hui immediately retorted, "I was just angry. How could they have the right to copy your face?"
Wei Mubai is so handsome, he should be unique. Only his temperament is worthy of such a perfect face. Other defective products are simply an insult to him.
Wei Mubai laughed. So this was what she was angry about. It was unexpected but not so unexpected.
"I'm very happy that you didn't fall into the charm!" He looked into Xu Hui's eyes and said solemnly.
Those eyes, as bright as stars, seemed to light up countless pearls, emitting a warm and rich glow, which made Xu Hui's heart beat faster and faster unconsciously.
She felt her cheeks burning and unconsciously looked away, "Um, should we leave?"
The voice was as thin as a mosquito, with an expression that he himself was not aware of.
"Let's go," Wei Mubai stretched out his slender and smooth hand that looked like it was carved from white jade, naturally took his hand, and walked out slowly.
He came to the entrance of the passage, scooped up the dust, and walked towards the cave entrance.
Liaochen's voice rang out, "You finally remembered me."
Xu Hui touched her nose uncomfortably and changed the subject, "Hey Liaochen, I saw a relic in Yi Qingxue's storage bracelet. Is it useful to you?"
"What, relics!" Liaochen was shocked. "No wonder she can come and go freely in the Demonic Sea Abyss."
Relics are gem-like beads left behind after the Buddha's death. They are sacred objects in Buddhism and can only be possessed by enlightened monks.
It is the condensation of all the cultivation and merits of a monk and is extremely precious.
Even in Buddhism, there is only one relic, which is enshrined in front of the Buddha statue and is treasured.
So it was really surprising that Yi Qingxue got one, but considering her incredible luck, it didn't seem so surprising.
As for how it came about, only she knows.
Although Xu Hui coveted the great benefits that the relic would bring, Liaochen had been with them through thick and thin for a long time and they had long been friends. With the relic, he would not be disturbed by external things and could cultivate to the peak period in peace and stability.
So even though she was extremely greedy, she took it out without hesitation.
However, when Liaochen saw the relic, he cried out in surprise, "Master!"
