Chapter 21
Cassel also followed Bai Yi along the temple, looking for the formation set up by the fox demon.
As he was searching, he felt a little worried. He tried to hold back, but in the end he couldn't help asking Bai Yi, "What if Nie Wuhen has no mana? Will he die?"
"..." Bai Yi said, "You should look forward to seeing Senior Brother."
"I'm just scared," Cassel said, feeling the wall to see if there was anything strange. "What if he were to die? What would I do? I'm a little scared."
"If he dies, how can you not live?"
"How can I live?" Cassel cried. When he thought about not being able to go home and see Barbatos, he felt that his life was hopeless. "Wow, please go save him. He must not die..."
"..." Bai Yi felt a headache, "Okay, ancestor, how could Brother die? We were outside for such a long time from day to night, how could we do nothing? To tell you the truth, Brother and I took an order from an escort agency and earned 300 gold. I used 100 gold to develop elixirs, which can temporarily help Brother recover his mana. But the most important thing now is to break the fox demon's formation as soon as possible so that we can recover our mana."
Cassel wiped away his tears: "Oh."
"There's one more thing I want to tell you."
Cassel was confused: "What's the matter?"
Bai Yi touched something loose and guessed that it was some secret room where the formation might be. He simply let go and looked at Cassel seriously: "Look at me first, I'll talk later."
Cassel pursed his lips and faced him, then he saw Bai Yi bow to him and said, "I'm sorry."
Cassel was shocked: "Ah?!"
"Ah, what?" Bai Yi straightened up quickly, his tone a little unnatural. He pressed the strange bulge and said, "We found the formation. After we recover our mana, we should be able to get out."
The temple is about to collapse.
The fox demon fell to the ground, coughing weakly. There was a huge bloody hole on his shoulder, with blood flowing from it, almost staining his clothes red. Not only that, his face and arms were covered with wounds of varying sizes, completely unlike the carefree and carefree man he was that morning.
"You," the fox demon uttered a few words with great effort, and another large mouthful of blood spurted out, "You are possessed by a demon."
"He just has a tendency to be possessed by a demon," Nie Wuhen walked over, dragging the edge of his sword on the ground, making a harsh sound. Blood flowed down his palm, then along the hilt, and onto the ground. "But, whether he is possessed by a demon or not, no one will know."
"You, who are you?" The fox demon seemed to have lost all its magic power and could no longer maintain its human form. It gradually turned into the shape of a fox, first the fox's head, then the tail, and finally the fingers...
"I know I can't survive, but I should at least die knowingly."
Nie Wuhen raised his eyes, bloodthirsty and murderous. He slowly placed the sword on the fox demon's fingers and repeated what he had just said word for word: "Kiss and hug?"
A finger was broken off and the scream of a fox was heard in my ears.
"Bullying and crying?"
Another one.
"Love in the water?" Nie Wuhen's voice was as cold as ice. "Did you touch him?"
"You are about to be completely possessed by the devil," the fox demon forced a laugh, "If I'm not mistaken, you must be from Yun Dian! When a cultivator is possessed by the devil... you will be a thousand times more miserable than me! Ten thousand times!"
Nie Wuhen's eyes were glowing red, and the tip of his tongue was against his back teeth. He couldn't control himself anymore. He wanted to kill someone, kill this ignorant fox demon in front of him!
The black air around spread, gathered like a vortex, and then slowly concentrated in one direction.
There seemed to be thunder in the sky.
At the moment when he was about to be completely possessed by the devil, Nie Wuhen heard someone calling him loudly: "Nie Wuhen!"
Someone is calling my name.
Nie Wuhen paused, the dark energy in his eyes quickly dissipated, he turned his head and saw Cassel rushing towards him!
It was during this moment of shock that the fox demon seized the opportunity, turned over and transformed into light and shadow, and pounced towards Nie Wuhen with bared fangs and claws: "Prepare to die!"
Nie Wuhen was too close to the fox demon. Even if he had time to dodge, he would not be safe. But just when he was about to confront it head-on, someone hugged him, and then, he heard a muffled groan that could not be suppressed.
Nie Wuhen: “!!!”
Cassel felt pain all over his body, his tentacles were trembling violently. He opened his mouth to say it hurt, but the moment his mouth opened, he just let out a "wow" and spat out a mouthful of blood. He had no strength left, no longer had the strength to hold Nie Wuhen, and he began to slide down, with the sky becoming increasingly darker in front of him.
Nie Wuhen's hands were shaking, and he subconsciously wanted to hug Cassel, but the surroundings were in chaos. Countless foxes rushed up, biting the two of them and attacking them with magic.
Nie Wuhen slashed forward with a sword!
“Senior Brother!”
The fox demon didn't know where he got the strength from, but he summoned his own magical weapon. The indigo umbrella flew into the air. The moment it opened, it emitted a white light. The moment it covered the fox demon and Cassel, they disappeared in an instant.
At the same time, the temple collapsed completely.
Cassel felt like he was dreaming. He dreamed that he turned into a wandering soul. He floated in the air and saw the world for the first time. The land was vast and magnificent. The sea is surging, the mountains and rivers are exotic, and the beauty is breathtaking.
He saw that when the sun was about to rise, countless people in solemn clothes were saying "Long live the emperor" to the people above; he saw the top of the mountain was shrouded in clouds and mist, and the people in white were hurried down the mountain, saying something like "Go find Nie Wuhen, contact Bai Yi"; he also saw in a cave that Nie Wuhen had his eyes tightly closed, his body covered with hideous wounds, and Bai Yi was sitting cross-legged behind him with his hands on his shoulders, as if he was healing his wounds.
Both of them had frowned brows.
Cassel also became scared. Nie Wuhen was injured so badly. If he died, what would he do? How would he get home?
A voice from outer space called him, and an unknown force pulled him. Cassel didn't know where that force was going to pull him. His whole body was resisting. He didn't want to leave. He wanted to look at Nie Wuhen and see him open his eyes. Only if he was alive could he go back.
But the force was too great.
Cassel couldn't break free.
"I don't want to go back," Cassel cried anxiously. He watched himself getting farther and farther away from Nie Wuhen, and finally broke down and cried, "Wuwuwu, Nie Wuhen, I don't want to leave you! Save me, please, save me..."
The sound became farther and farther away and gradually disappeared.
Meanwhile, in the cave.
Nie Wuhen struggled in the nightmare for a while and said something slowly.
Bai Yi collected his magic power and quickly moved over, his voice full of undisguised worry: "Brother, wake up."
Nie Wuhen's eyelids moved slightly, and after a long time, he finally opened his eyes.
His eyes were clear and there was no sign of being possessed by the devil.
The fox demon cave is near the forest.
When Cassel woke up, he felt as if his body was not his own. He was in so much pain, his whole body was in pain. When he moved his arm slightly, the sound of chains came into his ears first. It took him a long time to realize that he was standing.
His long eyelashes trembled, and he raised his eyes with great effort, finally seeing the current scene clearly.
Rows of torture instruments that he had only seen in the lower level of the devil's hell were neatly arranged, with four pots of charcoal fire burning next to them. The green light was particularly creepy in the cold and damp environment. Several demons with fox heads and human bodies gathered together, whispering, and it was unknown what they were discussing.
And he was like the devil he had seen before, tied to the cross by the angel, with no possibility of escape.
"You're awake." The little fox demon laughed playfully, with a tone that could not hide the malice, "Go and report to the master quickly."
Cassel opened his mouth weakly and wanted to say something, but he didn't have enough strength to speak.
I don't know how long it took, but finally I heard the sound of footsteps.
Lingyou stood opposite Cassel, lifted his chin with a rough whip, and patted him in an extremely vicious way: "Finally woke up."
He didn't hold back his strength at all, and the whip was covered with tiny spikes, which hit his cheek and instantly cut his skin. Strands of blood flowed down his cheek. Cassel couldn't help it, so he tilted his head and started crying, saying it hurt.
"It hurts? That's right." Ling You in front of him smiled, with naked malice in his eyes. He hated that man and naturally hated Cassel. If it weren't for the man in front of him, he wouldn't have broken three fingers and suffered such serious injuries.
The spiked whip slid down, Ling You grinned and asked, "It's worth it that I saved your life. If I don't torture you well, it would be a waste of my magic medicine."
Cassel clenched and unclenched his fists, chattered his teeth, trembled, and said nothing.
"What's the name of the person who saved you?"
Cassel said nothing, and refused to say anything. The sharp whip came through the air, and Cassel was caught off guard. After screaming, he turned his head away. His cheeks became red and swollen at that moment, and it was burning with pain. His mouth was instantly filled with the taste of rust.
He wanted to swallow the blood, but he couldn't. The moment he opened his mouth, all the blood slid down the corners of his mouth intermittently. He wanted to vomit and dry heave, but in the end he could do nothing. Tears fell along the scars on his cheeks, making it even more painful.
Cassel gritted his teeth again. He thought that Nie Wuhen would definitely come back to save him, so he would not die and neither would he. If no one came to rescue him...Casel's nose felt sore, his throat was dry, and he almost bit his lips.
If you don’t want to come, then don’t come.
It’s just that I can’t go home.
Wuuwuwu... But he would never see Barbatos again.
Another whip, this time Cassel finally swallowed his scream and just let out a suppressed groan. His clothes were torn, with streaks of blood showing, which soon soaked the clothes. Cassel couldn't bear the pain and struggled hard, causing the chains to rattle, but he was only beaten more severely.
His consciousness was groggy, and he was finally awakened by the piercing pain in the palm of his hand. He heard Ling You ask with a smile: "Do you think I won't know if you don't tell me?"
Cassel gasped and was forced to open his hands.
There was a scar on the palm of his hand.
"The scar of the Wuwang Sword," Ling You said sadly, "It seems that the man is the Sword Master of Yundian, Nie Wuhen. I heard that Nie Wuhen has a confidant, the Yundian Medicine Master, Bai Yi. I think it is the person next to him. This is much clearer. I was wondering how in the world I created, there are people who can use magic at will."
Cassel lowered his head and his little antennae drooped.
He felt the person in front of him pulling his little tentacles with great force. Cassel couldn't help crying and begged, "Can you please stop pulling my little tentacles?"
"Okay," Lingyou approaches, whispering like a demon trying to persuade you to do good, "If you're honest, I'll let you go. Tell me, what's your name?"
Cassel's voice trembled: "Ka, Cassel."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cassel felt his little tentacles hurt even more. He broke down and cried, "I, I really didn't lie... Why don't you believe me?"
"If you are really honest," Lingyou pinched the tentacles and listened to the sound of the little fox sharpening the knife next to her, and said faintly, "I will naturally believe you. It's a pity that you even lied to me about your name."
