181 “Blessing from Heavenly Official” Chapter 180

Chapter 180 There must be something special about the copper furnace

His head tilted to one side and he seemed to have lost consciousness.When he saw it was Lang Ying, he subconsciously wanted to save her, but he quickly stopped and realized: It was clear that there was only Bai Wuxiang here, so why did Lang Ying suddenly appear?

Seeing that the originally pure and holy statue of Prince Yueshen was stained by the dripping blood, Huacheng was very angry, his face was dark and angry, and the scimitar was filled with coldness in his hand.He said: “Get down.”

“Lang Ying”‘s tilted head really came back, she opened her eyes, and slowly “pulled” herself off the sword and dropped it to the ground.

Just now, after shattering the wave of attacking silver butterflies, he took advantage of the flash of silver light to hide under the white gauze of the statue and transformed into Lang Ying.Since he can transform into Lang Ying, he must have seen Lang Ying somewhere.Thanks for the pity: “Where is the real Lang Ying?”

Huacheng said: “Your Highness, maybe there is no ‘real Lang Ying’ at all.”

If, from the beginning, “Lang Ying” did not exist, but was just a state that Bai Wuxiang had not fully recovered, the matter would be easily explained.However, Xie Lian thought of Miss Xiaoying who died in Yujunshan, and preferred that this argument would not work.He quickly thought of another possibility and said slowly: “Or maybe… he ate Lang Ying.”

Hearing this, the body of “Lang Ying” opposite him gradually lengthened and grew taller, and the bandage on his face slowly fell off, revealing the mask underneath. He raised his head slightly, as if smiling, and said, “You guessed it.”

Sure enough.

Bai Wuxiang was indeed dismissed by Jun Wu.But his ghost lingered, leaving a remnant of his soul wandering in the world. I don’t know how long he wandered, and I don’t know when he found Lang Ying, who also had a ghost body.He must have used some method to bewitch or deceive Lang Ying, so that Lang Ying agreed to let him stay in his body. Otherwise, with his weak remaining soul, he might not be able to devour Lang Ying.After he stuck to Lang Ying, he slowly recovered. The final result was what Xie Lian and Huacheng saw now. The ghost ate the ghost, and Bai Wuxi ate the host Lang Ying.Just like He Xuan devoured the immortal Bai Hua, Lang Ying became his vassal.

After a few words, “Lang Ying” had completely transformed into Bai Wuxiang.Huacheng stared at him and said, “Why did Lang Ying agree to let you borrow his spirit body?”

This kind of request is similar to a stranger saying, “Open your door and let me come in to eat, drink and live with you.” After all, Lang Ying is also a ghost who has lived for hundreds of years. Although he is timid, he is not that stupid.Bai Wuxiang said warmly: “Of course I can answer you. But are you sure the person next to you wants me to say it here?”

Huacheng looked aside.Xie Lian’s expression was slightly weird, but he didn’t notice his gaze at all.Bai Wuxiang said again: “The surname is Lang, Yong’an, human face epidemic. Why did you agree to let me eat him? Don’t you still know why?”

Xie Lian’s face turned pale in an instant, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged. He chopped them off with a sword and shouted: “Shut up!”

Bai Wuxiang dodged, and the sword made a “clang” sound, cutting off the long sword in the hand of his own statue.This is great, the prince is pleased with the statue, but the prince’s sword has become a broken sword, and the statue has become a broken piece.Xie Lian came back to his senses immediately, as if a basin of cold water had been poured on him.The undead butterflies swarmed up as if they were enraged. Bai Wuxiang let out a string of lukewarm laughter. He calmly covered his face with his sleeves, stopped entangled, and quickly disappeared into the darkness.Xie Lian looked at the severed stone sword on the ground and subconsciously said to Huacheng: “I’m sorry…”

Huacheng said: “Brother, isn’t this funny? Why bother saying sorry to me. How about he left?”

Xie Lian calmed down slightly and said: “Did you escape? We can’t let him enter the copper furnace!”

The two chased out of the Cave of the Ten Thousand Gods and climbed to the snow-capped mountains again.As soon as I came out, I felt the ground was shaking.Looking up, I saw avalanches, even worse than before. It seemed that something buried beneath the snow had awakened and was roaring.Thank you for your pity: “Is this still possible?!”

Huacheng grabbed Xie Lian’s hand tightly and said, “Just follow me!”

The two went up against the torrent of ice and snow collapse.Sure enough, although it was extremely difficult and dangerous, almost taking one step and taking three steps back, we still avoided the most violent snow and rock flow and countless pits, and broke out a way up the mountain.

Finally, we climbed to the highest point. The top of the mountain was covered with ice. It was so thick that we didn’t know how many layers there were. Xie Lian felt that he would slip if he walked a little faster, but Huacheng held his hand and walked steadily without any fear.The two came to the crater of the volcano, which looked like a huge mouth roaring toward the sky, which was very spectacular.Looking down, it was pitch black.I don’t know if it was an illusion, but bursts of frightening red light came from the deepest part, disappearing and appearing.Xie Lian had some inexplicable palpitations. He held down the bamboo hat on his head to prevent it from being blown away by the wind and snow, and said, “Has he already gone in?”

Huacheng only glanced at it, then calmed down and said: “Already in.”

“How can I see it?”

“The copper furnace is being closed.”

Xie Lian was shocked and caught off guard: “What’s going on? It’s closed so quickly? Don’t you have to go in and start fighting with a few ghosts inside?”

Huachengdao: “That’s a general situation. But if Tonglu thinks that the entrant has great potential to break through Tonglu, and the ghost makes a request to it to close the mountain, it will also be closed.” After a pause, he said, “That’s what I did at the beginning.”

Xie Lian said: “Is he a Jue? What will happen if the Ghost King who has become a Jue enters the copper furnace again?”

Huacheng said: “It’s the same as what happens if a priest who has already ascended wants to experience another catastrophe.”

In other words, the stronger the stronger!

If Bai Wuxiang were allowed to break through this level, the consequences would be unimaginable.

And after he came out of the mountain, the first person he looked for must be Xie Lian.

After staring at the bottomless and endless abyss for a while, Xie Lian said slowly: “Sanlang, I…may have to go down and make a break.”

Huacheng said softly: “Let’s go. I’ll accompany you.”

Xie Lian looked up at him, and Hua Cheng also raised his head, looked at him, raised an eyebrow, and said with a smile: “It’s nothing more than going down to kill an obstructionist and breaking through the copper furnace again. It’s not necessarily a difficult task.”

Seeing how relaxed he was, Xie Lian’s tense mood relaxed involuntarily and he smiled slightly.Immediately, Huacheng said: “However, there is something.”

Xie Lian: “?”

He tilted his head slightly, and Huacheng suddenly put an arm around his waist and brought him into his arms. The other hand gently raised his chin and captured his lips.

After kissing for a long time in the wind and snow, their lips slowly separated.Xie Lian stayed for a while, and finally woke up with a start, his face flushed, and he opened his eyes and said, “…Why, why are you suddenly?!”

Although this is not the first time they have done this kind of thing, before they used high-sounding reasons such as “borrowing magic power”, “transferring energy”, and “accidentally”.But now that some things have been revealed, these reasons are suddenly exposed as hypocritical, and the significance of this kind of thing is not trivial.He simply didn’t know where to put his hands. Should he grab Huacheng’s arm, push Huacheng’s chest, or block Huacheng’s face?

Huacheng seemed to take a slight breath in his ear, and whispered: “…I will first lend some mana to His Highness in case of emergency…take it, okay?”

Xie Lian swallowed his throat unconsciously and stammered: “Is this, is this a little bit, it seems too much… I haven’t paid back the previous debt…”

Huacheng said: “Not much. Don’t be in a hurry. Pay it back slowly when you have time, and you will eventually pay it off.”

Xie Lian said “Uh huh” randomly several times, and when he was about to run away, Huacheng grabbed him again and reminded: “Your Highness! Where are you running? The direction is wrong.”

Only then did Xie Lian realize that he had actually run back, and immediately walked back. The soles of his feet still slipped on the ice. He quickly held down the hat and said: “No, no. I, I’m just a little cold. I want to run around a few times to warm myself up…”

He put on the bamboo hat and put it on again and again. Finally, he grabbed Huacheng’s hand and held it tightly.The two stood side by side, looking at the huge abyss below.

Huacheng said in a casual tone: “After solving the problem, I will show my brother the most satisfying statue I carved.”

Thanks for the pity: “Okay.”

After saying that, the two jumped down together.

The roaring wind blew past the ears, and the strong impact was like a huge wave hitting the face, but the two people’s hands were not washed away, but held tighter.

Unexpectedly, in mid-air, Xie Lian’s hand suddenly caught something empty.

It wasn’t that his hand slipped or that Hua Cheng threw him away, but that suddenly, the hand in his palm disappeared and became insubstantial.

Xie Lian’s heart tightened and he shouted: “Sanlang?!”

He was falling rapidly. One moment he shouted, and the next moment the voice was more than ten feet above his head, and it sounded unreal.I don’t know how long it took, but Xie Lian finally landed firmly.He immediately stood up and said, “Sanlang?”

No answer.Only the empty echo told him what a vast and empty space he was in at the moment.

There was darkness in all directions, except for the top, Xie Lian looked above his head.Above, there is a snow-white sky that is slowly shrinking.That is the crater of the copper furnace, which is slowly closing.

But where has the Flower City gone?

With a “boom”, Xie Lian held up a palm flame and wanted to take a look at what was happening underneath.However, the darkness was unfathomable, and the fire could not illuminate anything at all. The firelight seemed to be indifferently absorbed by the darkness, and he accidentally failed to control the magic power. The flame was too high and almost burned his hair. He quickly threw the fire aside to the ground.What a coincidence, the firelight just reflected a faint white figure not far away.Xie Lian was immediately alert and said: “Who!”

The white figure turned around and replied quietly: “You know who I am.”

Although he answered, the muscles on the man’s face did not move at all.This is natural, because it is not a human face at all, but a half-crying, half-laughing mask.

Xie Lian blurted out: “Sanlang!”

Although he couldn’t help but feel creepy when he saw this face, and his spine ran cold, but he was not calling out because of fear, but out of worry.Naturally, there was still no answer, and the sad and happy face came a little closer to him and said: “No need to shout. The copper furnace has been closed. Here, there are only you and me, there is no third person.”

Xie Lian subconsciously looked at the sky again.Before, there was still a small patch of snow-white sky above, but now, that small patch of light has been completely swallowed up by the surrounding darkness.This also means that the copper furnace is really closed.

Xie Lian never expected that it would turn into this situation.He, and Bai Wuxiang, were imprisoned in a copper furnace?

Both of them?Why the two of them?!

Xie Lian held Fangxin in his hand, pointed his sword at him, and said: “What’s going on? Is it you again? Where are others? Where are they now?”

Bai Wuxiang held the edge of the Fangxin sword between two fingers of one hand, flicked the blade with the other hand, and made a crisp “clang” sound, saying: “Let’s go.”

When Xie Lian saw his action, his eyes turned cold and he said, “Tell me clearly, what do you mean by leaving?”

Bai Wuxiang said: “I don’t want to follow you anymore. I’ll leave and die. What do you think?”

“…”

Xie Lian’s heart felt cold at first, and then a burst of rage surged up, and he slashed away with a sword: “Stop talking nonsense!”

Bai Wuxiang easily caught the edge of the sword again and said: “Okay, okay. I am indeed talking nonsense. Don’t worry, he has been sent outside the copper furnace. Even if he rushes over now, it is too late.”

Xie Lian was not worried about whether he could make it in time, as long as everything was fine, he was secretly relieved.Bai Wuxiang added: “However, it’s better for him not to come in. Otherwise, even if he doesn’t have that idea now, it’s hard to say whether he will want to follow you after seeing your appearance later.”

Xie Lian couldn’t bear it anymore and struck another blow with his sword, shouting: “Shut up! I’ve had enough of you, what do you want! What do you want?! How long are you going to pester me!!!”

Bai Wuxiang dodged each of his swords calmly, and Xie Lian said angrily: “Why are you not dead yet? Why did you come to the copper furnace!”

Bai Wuxiang said: “Because of you!”

Xie Lian stagnated for a moment, took a breath, and said, “What do you mean?”

Bai Wuxiang replied calmly: “Because you are here, so I am here too.”

Hearing this answer, Xie Lian’s face was a little distorted.

However, no matter how furious and murderous he was, Bai Wuxiang always seemed to be able to predict how his next sword would come out, and missed it with just a hair’s breadth.The more Xie Lian used his sword, the more he understood a cruel fact:

Can’t win!

“Yes.” Bai Wuxiang said, as if he could see his heart, “You can’t win.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he slashed Xie Lian’s wrist with a knife.A sharp pain spread throughout his body. Xie Lian involuntarily let go of the sword, and then he grabbed his hair and smashed it into the ground!

There was a buzzing in his ears, his nose and mouth were extremely bloody, and his brain was concussing.

After a while, Xie Lian felt a hand lift his head out of the broken ground, and a voice said from above: “Pity, pity.”

Xie Lian choked out a mouthful of blood.Bai Wuxiang said: “Every time I see His Highness the Crown Prince, you always look like this. It’s heartbreaking and satisfying.”

Xie Lian bit a mouthful of blood to prevent it from choking out, and said hoarsely: “…Don’t be too proud. I can’t beat you now, but…someone can. Even if you can get out of the copper furnace, Junwu may not be able to kill you again.”

What’s more, there is also a flower city!

Unexpectedly, Bai Wuxiang said: “Who said it would be me coming out of the copper furnace?”

Hearing this, Xie Lian was stunned.

Not him?Who else could he be?

Bai Wuxiang raised his face, looked at him, and said warmly: “Your Highness, I think you may have misunderstood. There will indeed be a Jue in this copper furnace, but it is not me. It is you.”

Xie Lian was shocked: “…What did you say? I’m not…”

Before he finished speaking, he thought about it and broke into a cold sweat.

Bai Wuxiang said: “Yes. That’s right. Congratulations, you finally understand my true purpose. Isn’t this your favorite ‘third way’?”

There is only one Jue and one priest in the copper furnace now. It seems that there are only two ways.Either Bai Wuxiang kills him and breaks through the copper furnace; or neither of them can get out and are locked in this copper furnace together forever.

But, in fact, there is a third way.

As long as Xie Lian commits suicide here immediately, transforms into a ghost, and kills Bai Wuxiang, he can become a master immediately and break through the copper furnace!

Xie Lian finally recovered from the shock and said: “You don’t have to think about it! Are you crazy? What do you want to do? Why do you want to do this?! Let me become a master? I’m not as crazy as you! Even if you want me to kill you, I can’t beat you. Tonglu will not admit such a master!”

The truth.Being a good person may not necessarily make you a god; being a god may not mean you are a ghost.Bai Wuxiang said, “Really? That’s not necessarily the case.”

As he spoke, he stretched out his other hand.With the light of the fire not far away, Xie Lian could see clearly that a mask appeared on the hand, which was exactly the same as the one on Bai Wuxiang’s face.

Bai Wuxiang said: “Remember this sad and happy face? It suits you very well.”

Xie Lian opened his eyes wide, fear like a swarm of insects crawling into his heart.He reluctantly said: “…take it away, take it away…take it away!”

Bai Wuxiang laughed and said: “It seems that His Highness the Crown Prince’s memory is not very good. In that case, let me help you think about it, okay?”

After finishing his words, he couldn’t help but blend the pale face of sorrow and joy into the boundless darkness, and pressed heavily on Xie Lian’s face.

The author has something to say: Don’t scare yourself by making random guesses about the plot.

Warning: cut the roll!

The next volume is volume four, cutting the timeline, just after the second ascension.The fourth volume is not long.Volume 5 is the final volume and may be slightly longer than expected.
