Fengyunlu
Chapter 786: A Beam of Light
"Why are you hurting me?" Fairy Ji Yao's voice was as cold as ice and her eyes were as sharp as knives. She stretched out the lantern in her hand, as if to illuminate the secret in the other person's heart.
The woman was trembling with fear. When illuminated by the lantern, she huddled into a ball, her voice full of fear: "Sister? Are you my sister? No! I didn't hurt you, it really wasn't me, it wasn't me..." She denied it desperately, as if trying to get rid of some invisible shackles.
"It's not you? Have you forgotten what happened that day?" Fairy Ji Yao pressed on step by step, her eyes filled with murderous intent, as if she really knew the truth of that year. Every word was like a knife, cutting through the silence.
Luo Hongchen was watching from the side, knowing that Fairy Ji Yao was trying to force out the truth, but he was also there, knowing that no one else was behind it, and that he was just a nobody at the time, so there was no reason for him to be schemed against. He knew in his heart that he was just a talented master back then, and wouldn't have gotten into such a big trouble, but he was somehow involved in this dispute.
Even though he has become an emperor now, Luo Hongchen still can't figure out what happened back then. Every time he has a clue, it is always interrupted by something unexpected. When he goes back to check, he is confused again. All the clues seem to have been deliberately erased, which makes him confused and frustrated. It feels like there is an invisible hand controlling everything.
"I haven't forgotten. Nothing happened that day. It really wasn't me, it wasn't me..." The woman's eyes were flustered. She was frightened by Fairy Ji Yao and spoke incoherently. No one knew what she was afraid of. Her words were full of confusion and contradictions, as if she was trying to cover up something.
But the more she did this, the more Fairy Ji Yao was sure that she knew something, but it seemed that she was prevented by some means, so that she could not speak out even when she wanted to. Every time she talked about the key points, she became confused and her words did not make sense. Fairy Ji Yao frowned, knowing that things were far more complicated than they seemed.
Mo Wenjian, who was standing next to her, watched all this and seemed to have thought of something. His eyes became somewhat clear. He walked forward, put the Changli Sword against the woman's throat, and said coldly: "If you tell anyone, you'll die." His voice was as cold as ice, which made people shudder.
As the long sword was withdrawn, the murderous aura was overwhelming. The woman was even more frightened, but she dared not dodge, as if she thought he was someone behind her. Her eyes were full of fear: "I didn't do it, don't kill me, I didn't say anything..." Her voice trembled, full of despair and helplessness.
"Did he ask you to hurt me?" Fairy Ji Yao stepped forward and pointed at Mo Wenjian and asked coldly. Her eyes were full of suspicion and inquiry, as if she wanted to uncover the truth hidden behind the scenes.
The woman covered her head and ears with her hands, closed her eyes and dared not look, she just kept shaking her head: "I don't know, don't ask me anymore, I don't know, it wasn't me who killed my sister, it wasn't me, it wasn't my sister, it wasn't my parents either..." The voice became weaker and weaker, as if she was avoiding something, or resisting something.
The sound became smaller and smaller, and the woman curled up into a ball and knelt on the ground, her body trembling. She was obviously extremely scared, like a child who had done something wrong and dared not admit it when questioned. Her appearance made people feel both pitiful and sad.
"You killed my parents!" Fairy Ji Yao suddenly asked loudly. She seemed to have heard some clues. What happened back then was not simple. Maybe the plan had already started long before the Great Snow Mountain encountered any foreign enemies. What was the purpose of such a long plan? She was filled with doubts and anger.
Ji Yao knew that this matter was probably not just for Luo Hongchen, nor was it just a matter for the Lingyan Pavilion. At least the Jianyin Sect was also involved. Otherwise, how could the Changli Sword fall into Mo Wenjian's hands, and how could he be plotted against and his life hang by a thread? Moreover, Luo Hongchen later became an emperor, and who could predict his future? Not even the Emperor Garden could do that. She began to suspect that there was a deeper conspiracy behind all this.
In this case, who is the protagonist of this game? Who is the person who set up the game? Why did he set up this game? All these questions are no longer just Luo Hongchen's business. Fairy Ji Yao, as the owner of Yaochi and one of the five great emperors, must find out the truth. As for why Mo Wenjian participated, Fairy Ji Yao was curious, but if he didn't tell her, she couldn't get the answer. She knew that the rules of this game were much more complicated than she thought.
"Oh, it's not me! I really don't know what's written in the letter. After my parents read it, they just... just... I didn't know it would be like this. It's really not me, it's really not me..." The girl was acting crazy, but she also accidentally revealed some useful clues. Her words were full of panic and denial, but her actions and reactions inadvertently revealed some key information.
Someone had passed the letter to the girl, perhaps taking advantage of her ignorance, or perhaps she had received some promise from the other party, so she passed the so-called letter. The content and source of the letter remain a mystery, but it is certain that the letter played a key role in the incident.
But the strange thing is that when the old master and his wife of the Lingyan Pavilion of the Great Snow Mountain said to the outside world that they only had a little girl left, but this girl was obviously Ling Xueer's sister when she was alive, why didn't they want to tell the truth? Is she hiding some secrets, or is she related to some shocking secret that forced the Great Snow Mountain to conceal the truth? The story behind this seems to be much more complicated than what it seems on the surface.
In addition, from what she said, she and Luo Hongchen had known each other for a long time, but she kept it a secret from others. Why did she not be on guard against Luo Hongchen at the beginning? Was it because he was different at the beginning? Or did she place some bet on him? This made people curious about Luo Hongchen's past and the relationship between him and the girl.
Fairy Ji Yao was confused, but Luo Hongchen heard it clearly. She looked at the Red Makeup Sword with a wandering look, then looked at the Qingfeng Changli in Mo Wenjian's hand. Finally, she sighed and said to the girl, "Alas, everything started because of me. I am useless and have harmed you and your sisters, as well as your parents. After so many years of investigation, the truth has not been found at all, and the blood debt has increased. Well, someone plotted against me just for some dirty tricks. Maybe I shouldn't have come out, or maybe what the master said back then has finally come true."
As Luo Hongchen spoke, he suddenly turned his head and looked in an unknown direction. His eye sockets trembled slightly, and his eyes were far away, as if he had made some important decision. Finally, he turned back and looked at the girl in front of him: "I promised your sister that I would not hurt you in the slightest. Now you have turned into an evil spirit and are dormant in the magic weapon. If you are willing, I will ask that useless disciple to send you to the South China Sea, and the old man Bai will help you break into the reincarnation. If you are not willing, you can stay in this sword. The body of the weapon spirit is also a good destination. In this way, I will help you get rid of the evil spirit. Now you are in the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Pool, which is better than the old man wandering around."
Luo Hongchen raised his hands slightly after he finished speaking, his eyes became more determined, the power of the mortal world gathered in front of him along the fingertips of his hands, and he moved the seals in his hands. It seemed that something was breaking through the air in the sword formation, shaking and bumping. A powerful force gathered in the air, as if it was about to release some unpredictable energy.
"No! You can't let her out, she will kill you, stop it now!!" The girl was out of character, no longer fearful and frantic, only worried, and shouting hysterically between words, she wanted to stop Luo Hongchen from doing what he was going to do next. Her voice was full of anxiety and fear, as if she knew that what was about to happen would have disastrous consequences.
"Kill her if you want. Your sister died under my sword, so I should have died with her. It's a little late now, but I may be able to catch up with her if I hurry." The relief on Luo Hongchen's face did not seem fake. He seemed to be ready to face everything. Whether it was life or death, he was willing to bear the consequences.
Fairy Ji Yao was watching from the side, not knowing whether she should stop him or not. Most importantly, she didn't know what Luo Hongchen wanted to do, so she could only watch and think of countermeasures. Her heart was full of doubts and uneasiness, but she couldn't make a decision, so she could only watch and watch.
Mo Wenjian nodded and smiled slightly, as if he and Luo Hongchen had returned to the time when they first met, no longer from the same poor family, no longer enemies, with only hope in his eyes and a hint of relief for his old friend. His expression revealed his trust in Luo Hongchen and his nostalgia for the good memories of the past.
That subtle sound was like a breeze passing through a small hole, melodious and profound, and no one seemed able to tell where it was drifting to.
Luo Hongchen stopped what he was doing. Before his eyes was a dazzling ball of light, colorful and with no obvious protagonist or clear direction. It just glowed quietly, illuminating the sword formation and isolating the outside world.
Suddenly, a stream of light shot out from the light ball and headed straight for the woman in red. The woman's body trembled slightly, the expression on her face froze, and her eyes revealed a struggle, as if she was unwilling in her heart, but her fingers moved slightly, as if she wanted to react, but she couldn't change the status quo.
Then, a second stream of light flashed from the light ball and merged into her body. The trembling of her fingertips disappeared, and her eyes began to become empty, as if her soul had been taken away. Then the third and fourth streams of light merged into her body one after another...
Countless streams of light merged into the woman's body one after another. She was suddenly stunned. Her eyes seemed to be able to penetrate everything. She looked directly at Luo Hongchen and instantly became fierce and cold. The aura around her also became icy and bone-chilling, like the howling cold wind in the Nine Netherworld, and like the remnant soul in the Demon Abyss that year reappeared.
She just raised her hand slightly, and the red lantern in Fairy Ji Yao's hand flew out and flew back into the woman's hand. As the wind sounded, the woman's momentum began to rise, and her long skirt fluttered in the wind. Until the wind gradually subsided, the woman's momentum at this time was comparable to that of Luo Hongchen and Mo Wenjian, strong and long, cold and evil, as if the magic power of the Nine Netherworld was released, and it was like the reappearance of the remnant soul of the Demon Abyss.
"You are finally willing to meet me." The woman's voice seemed to contain the tones of two people. She spoke slowly, and her voice carried the mystery of two souls in one body.
Before Luo Hongchen could answer, Ji Yao beside him was stunned: "Burning Heart Technique!!"
"Oh? Did you bring this little girl?" The woman in red first showed a surprised expression, then turned to ask Luo Hongchen.
Luo Hongchen nodded: "You can say that, but you can't hurt her life."
"Okay." The red-dressed woman agreed, turned her gaze to Ji Yao, and shook her head again: "No wonder, although she has the Taiyin Saint Body, she seems to be lacking in something. I guess it's because she lacks a sister with the Xuanyin Body. With such a deep sisterly love, I won't hurt her even if you don't mention it. Moreover, if she can master this Red Makeup Sword, she may be able to resist some disasters in the future."
"You know the Burning Heart Technique, but this technique did not exist in the Lingyan Pavilion of the Great Snow Mountain. So... no, since you died three hundred years ago, how could you be related to my mother's deep hatred?" Fairy Ji Yao's words suddenly became cold, and she woke up instantly. The woman in front of her was already a spirit body, and her mother had died before she was born, let alone gave birth to her and her sisters. Therefore, the subsequent hatred could not be related to her.
However, the woman had two souls in one body, and one soul contained two true spirits. It was obviously a method of condensing the soul of the Burning Heart Technique as the core, and the whole body was like a lamp. This kind of skill had never been seen anywhere else except Fairy Ji Yao's mother, nor had she heard of anyone practicing it. Her master Xuan Guzi had said when he accepted her and her sisters as disciples in the early years that this skill might be the unique secret skill of her mother's family, but today she saw it in this formation, and it was practiced by a deceased person.
"Your mother?" The woman in red was suddenly surprised when she heard this, and seemed to have forgotten that the original intention of her appearance was to deal with Luo Hongchen's past entanglement. She began to look Ji Yao up and down.
After a period of contemplation, the woman seemed to understand something: "Are you Sister Mingyue's child?"
"Do you know my mother?" Fairy Ji Yao was a little excited.
Her parents died when she was young, and she and her younger sister depended on each other for survival. With no one to rely on, their home was occupied by evil people, so they had to wander around. Later, a kind-hearted person found them and claimed to be an old friend of her mother. He told the two sisters that their parents were originally practitioners of the Xuanmen, and because their mother possessed a profound method, she was coveted by others. An evil person beat her up, and she was saved by her father. The two fell in love with each other, and they both hid from the world to avoid disaster.
But the evil man was too cunning and his cultivation was too high. He eventually found their parents and killed them, and the Dharma was also stolen. Before the incident, their parents seemed to have a premonition, so they spread the news, left the two sisters at home, and went to a trap set by themselves to wait for the evil man.
Unexpectedly, the villain had so many helpers. Their parents were outnumbered and eventually met with misfortune. Now that the disaster has happened, if they want to take revenge, they must practice the way of Xuanmen. Only when they have achieved success in their practice in the future can they avenge their parents.
