Chapter 18 The Man Who Killed Xiao Liu

The turmoil in Hesheng Hall immediately alarmed Yun Lie who was waiting outside. When he heard the sound and rushed over, he saw the scene in front of him.

"master!"

Seeing Li Fusheng squatting on the ground, Yun Lie hurriedly shouted.But as soon as the words fell, Li Fusheng turned into a flame-colored afterimage, and disappeared in front of everyone with Xiao Yu.

At this moment, Li Fusheng's voice transmission sounded in Yun Lie's mind: "You know what to do."

After Li Fusheng and Xiao Yu left suddenly, the four maids in the tea room looked at each other and didn't know what was going on. The next moment, Yun Lie waved his left hand, and a burst of blue light swept towards the maids. Lie fell down in front of him.

At the same time, a deep and eloquent voice came from an extremely gorgeous palace to the west of the Huoli Kingdom Palace.

"Huh? Something interesting came to the palace..."

The voice was melodious and long, spreading in the most magnificent palace of the imperial palace. This palace is much more flashy than the Huoli Kingdom's monarch, which shows that the monarch attaches great importance to and loves this person.

This person is the empress of the Huoli Kingdom, Chi Yun, she is honored as the Empress of Fire by the palace people.

Although Huo Hou was born in Baoyan Country, a fairyland of mining, she was the youngest sister of the monarch of Baoyan Country who died in the war between Huoli Country and Baoyan Country. Clan affairs, and even severed contact with her mother clan, she didn't even care about Baoyan Kingdom's dangerous situation at this time.

Because of this, in the country of Huoli, the Empress Huo is under one person and above ten thousand people.

At this time, the spacious reclining chair in Changle Hall was covered with thick and soft fur, and the person leaning on it was the queen of the fire.

She was dressed in a fiery red brocade gown, with crystal gemstones embellished on the cloud patterns woven with gold thread on the skirt, and her fair skin was as white as snow against the backdrop of the red dress.She was lying on her side, her chin resting on her back, her eyes were tightly closed, and a few strands of black hair hung naturally in front of her eyes.

The scarlet lips moved slightly, spit out the words just now, and then she slowly opened her eyes.

It was a pair of golden pupils with a metallic luster, which looked even more coquettish under this beautiful face.And she is a real late Yuancheng monk.

She stretched out her white jade-like right hand forward, a red light flickered at her fingertips, and then two buzzing flying insects appeared in front of her fingers.

These two flying insects are shaped like praying mantises, but have six-petal translucent wings. They fly around the palms and backs of Huo Hou's hands very obediently, allowing her to play and tease them.Later, as the queen of fire waved her hand, they flew out of Changle hall in an instant, and flew towards Hesheng hall.

Within the three entrances of Hesheng Hall is Li Fusheng's sleeping hall.At this time, there were only Li Fusheng and Xiao Yu here, and Xiao Yu was placed on his spacious animal skin bed by Li Fusheng. She kept babbling in a coma, as if she was having a very terrible dream.

Li Fusheng quickly arranged a protective barrier around him, and was about to put his hand on Xiao Yu's forehead to detect her breath, but just as his hand touched his forehead, he was shaken away by a very powerful spiritual force. The power was so strong that Li Fusheng's palm was burned off a piece of flesh.

"It turns out that this is where your destiny is. Did your master impose restrictions on you in order to protect you?"

Li Fusheng immediately saw the problem, so he gave up probing from the forehead.After stretching his right hand several times in the air, the scars on the palm of his hand healed quickly visible to the naked eye, and then he put his hand on the back of Xiao Yu's right hand.

He mobilized a little bit of his spiritual power and injected it into Xiao Yu's body, intending to examine her, but this inspection made his hands stiff and his brows furrowed deeply.

"Chilling Gu..."

While muttering in his mouth, suddenly a strange spiritual force, like a tiny flying needle born out of thin air, pierced through the barrier of his barrier.A ray of dazzling red light suddenly appeared behind him, passed through his probing palm, and burrowed into Xiao Yu's arm like a blood-sucking worm.

All this happened so suddenly that Li Fusheng didn't realize that a bloody hole had already been pierced in the palm of his hand.However, he also reacted quickly, and quickly noticed another ray of red aura, and instantly pinched a pinch of open fire in his palm, and rushed towards the red light.

The flames and red light collided violently against the wheat awning like needle points, turning into a red cloud in the air, and then disappeared before his eyes.As for the person who used this kind of technique in the palace, Li Fusheng knew who it was without having to guess.

So he transformed into a piece of red jade token in his hand, and threw it towards the barrier, and the original protective barrier suddenly burst into flames, forming an indestructible wall of flames.

After that, he hurriedly came to the window to check Xiao Yu's situation, only to find that the strange insect that had penetrated into Xiao Yu's arm disappeared when it penetrated into her wrist, and it was actually killed by the cold air in her body. .But even though the breath dissipated, the remaining energy of the monster insect had been integrated into Xiao Yu's veins.

At this moment, Xiao Yu was trembling all over, exhaling white mist, her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and her brows were tightly knit together in pain.And Li Fusheng ignored the wound on his hand, changed another hand, put it on the back of Xiao Yu's hand that was also pierced in half, and began to inject her with his own fire attribute spiritual power to relieve her coldness.

"After a hundred years, we finally meet again. Although I know that you are not her, and you have already forgotten me, I hope this time, you can make a different choice from her..."

Li Fusheng whispered to himself, with sadness in his eyes.He stared at the woman who was trapped in a nightmare in front of him, with a sad expression on his face.

A steady stream of spiritual power flowed from Li Fusheng's hands into Xiao Yu's body, and fine sweat was already creeping up Li Fusheng's forehead.Although he didn't know why this Chilling Heart Gu suddenly appeared on Xiao Yu's body, but as one of the only three Chilling Heart Gus left in the world, it was too powerful for him to solve.

Right now, he can only temporarily use a large amount of warm spiritual power to suppress the coldness.

This Gu originally came from the Bai Family in the Southern Demon Realm, and it is an extremely rare item of the Bai Family, because "Heart Gu" is rare in the world, and it is difficult to cultivate, except for the Burning Heart Gu and Heart-biting Gu of the Earth Refining Clan, which have now been exterminated. , it is the chilling Gu of the Bai family.

According to Li Fusheng's understanding, there is no solution to this Gu.

Under the irrigation of Li Fusheng's large amount of spiritual power, Xiao Yu's condition gradually calmed down, his frozen and stiff body was gradually relieved, and his stiff skin quickly became soft and his blood color gradually returned.

But the residual energy of the strange insect after the fire had invaded her lungs. Although Li Fusheng had expelled it in time, the damage to her soul consciousness still plunged her into an infinitely terrifying nightmare...

In the dream, Xiao Yu returned to the underground parking lot again.

On the day of the divorce, there were very few people in the parking lot on the first floor, so she stayed in the underground parking lot alone until dark.

And just when Xiao Yu was about to start the car, the car couldn't start normally for some reason. At that time, she seemed to see a woman in the rearview mirror. She wanted to check carefully, but the person had disappeared.

Afterwards, she was brought to this other world by that hurricane.

But in the subsequent dream, Xiao Yu couldn't tell what kind of timeline it was, nor could he tell whether it was Xiaoliu's memory or his own.

She dreamed that she was walking alone in the snow and lost her way, and even almost died of freezing and starving in the snow, until a warm arm hugged her, and they returned to the empty valley together.

She saw that Jixing carefully taught her spells and learned her own natal method.This teaching lasts for ten years.

But for some reason, on that day, she said a word to Master.

"Master, I don't want to be your apprentice anymore, I want to be an ordinary girl and stay by your side all the time..."

She only remembered that she was severely scolded by Jixing, those words were too vague to hear clearly in the dream, she only saw the only quarrel between them in ten years, after she cried sadly by the mirror lake all night , left the empty valley alone.

Later, in a flash before her eyes, in her dream, the empty valley disappeared, replaced by a dark green, dark, gloomy and mysterious woods, this woods seemed familiar.

It's a lost soul.

In No Return, a young girl is running wildly in the forest, but no one is chasing her. Xiao Yu can feel her fear from the fast breathing of this young girl.

I don't know how long she ran, but she couldn't run anymore. The girl with exhausted legs was sitting slumped under a withered old tree. She wanted to take a breath, but suddenly a fire appeared behind her, and a person appeared behind her.

Accompanied by a strong scent of rouge, it was a woman, and the person snorted coldly.

"What? Did you give up?"

The girl turned her head back in horror, her body stiffened and she slowly turned around.

At this time, Xiao Yu also saw clearly the appearance of the girl in the dream. Isn't this girl Xiao Liu?

"Your life element is very interesting, I want it, how about giving it to me?"

The woman's body was hidden in the darkness, and she was walking towards Xiao Liu at this moment. No, Xiao Yu couldn't tell whether it was Xiao Liu or herself. The other party walked towards him with an unbearable pressure.

"No, Master is still waiting for me, Master, Master, help me..."

Xiao Liu yelled helplessly.

"Your master will never come..."

A pungent aroma came along with a surge of strong spiritual power, and it also flew towards Xiao Liu mercilessly with countless sparkling powders.

In an instant, flames started to ignite on Xiao Liu's body, and she writhed on the ground in pain, calling out to Master incessantly, and as the flames became more and more intense, that person's face was also revealed.

That person is actually the Queen of Fire!
So beautiful, yet so vicious.

She just stood in front of Xiao Liu so quietly, watching Xiao Liu struggling and rolling in pain in the fire with cold eyes, and watching those struggles gradually become weak until the breath on Xiao Liu's body almost completely disappeared, There was only a trace of life left, but those flames were still sticking to her body, as if they would never dissipate.

The old tree behind Xiao Liu was burnt black, and his torso became shriveled and charred just like Xiao Liu's body at this time, and he couldn't even see his original appearance.At this time, Hou Huo's footsteps finally moved.

She slapped her nose with her hand, as if she disliked the smell of Xiao Liu being burned alive.Her footsteps stepped on the dry fallen leaves, making broken sounds.She stretched out her hand to Ming Yuan between Xiao Liu's forehead, and a fire ignited at her fingertips.

Just as Huohou was about to peel off Xiaoliu's body, a loud and deep voice came from deep in the forest.

"graft."

The sound came, as if it came from that person's mysterious spell, causing the fire on Xiao Liu's body to gradually go out, but the old tree behind her suddenly caught fire, and burned out in an instant, turning into fly ash.

What followed was an incomparable terrifying spiritual power, like a violent storm falling on the land of no return, it extinguished the fire on Xiao Liu's body and frightened the fire queen not far away.

"It's you... huh, it seems that I wasted my trip today... You ruined my good deed again. Although I can't beat you now, it doesn't mean I'm afraid of you. Let's see, her soul, Sooner or later, I will come to pick up..."

Huo Hou was shocked by the opponent's sense of oppression, and even spat out a mouthful of blood, but he still sneered and said.Afterwards, she turned into a burst of extremely crimson flames and disappeared in an instant.

"It's a pity. Daddy just found this person, but this person is about to die."

The visitor sighed and said in a hoarse voice.But this voice was so familiar to Xiao Yu in her dream, she would never forget that stinky beggar who sold herself to Baiyue Tower and cheated away the golden hairpin.

"It doesn't matter daddy, the King of Hades wants her to die at the third watch, and he can't keep her until the fifth watch. Maybe next time, we can find her earlier."

At this time, it was the little beggar with a face full of snot who was talking to the old beggar.

"The King of Hades ordered people to die on the third watch, and they can't keep them until the fifth watch... and next time? Are you trying to kill me? Hehe, dear son, you stand back."

In the dark, the old beggar seemed to have made some important decision, and said to the little beggar.

Afterwards, the spiritual power in his whole body exploded in an instant, and he made a tactic in his hand, his eyes glowed darkly, and he murmured in a heavy and slightly strenuous breath.The light in his eyes seemed to merge with the endless darkness in the soulless, but there were two strange dark rays of light, like ghost eyes from the underworld.

"spiritualism!"

His voice was old and hoarse, like a secret language forced out of his restrained throat, every word was paused, resounding like a boulder falling to the soul.

In front of his eyes, Xiao Liu's vitality was rapidly recovering, his tragic and scorched body gradually transformed into delicate and smooth, and every hair that disappeared on his body was rapidly recovering...

"Girl, I gave up half my life to save your life. I hope you will cherish it. When I leave you alone in the future, please remember today's kindness..."

The old beggar's voice became weak, and his breathing became extremely short.His spiritual energy was rapidly depleted due to excessive consumption, as if he had become older in a short period of time.

"Daddy, do we have meat tonight..."

Afterwards, the conversation became more and more blurred, Xiao Yu felt that he was getting farther and farther away from Xiao Liu who was lying on the pile of burnt ashes, and the voices of the beggar father and son gradually became inaudible...

The next moment, with a scream, Xiao Yu suddenly sat up from the bed.Her clothes were soaked, and most of the hair scattered around her neck was soaked.

All kinds of scenes in the dream kept flashing in her mind, causing her brain to send out bursts of unbearable stinging pain. She curled her knees and hugged her head, sitting there gasping for breath, her body felt the stinging pain directly hitting the soul, as if The fierce burning flame is still on him.

Although the fire burned on Xiao Liu's body, the part of Xiao Liu's lost memory was now accidentally retrieved by Xiao Yu with the invasion of the strange insect behind the fire, and now she can truly empathize with it up.

It turned out that Xiao Liu was killed by the queen of the fire, and that person actually used such a horrific technique to burn Xiao Liu to death without returning her soul, leaving her to die alone in despair.

At this moment Xiao Yu could feel every inch of pain in Xiao Liu's body, and what he saw when Xiao Liu was dying, the old and the young beggars.

That person was supposed to be Xiao Liu's savior.But there are always so many self-defeating things in this world, and now the old beggar used half his life as the price to use the soul-calling technique, and the soul that was brought back was not Xiao Liu's soul, but her, a person from another world.

Everything was a trick of fate, such a coincidence, made Xiao Yu feel a lot of guilt, as if she was the one who killed Xiao Liu with her own hands, and she deprived Xiao Liu of his only chance to be reborn!

She suddenly recalled that during the day, the Empress of Fire just passed her by in full view. Now that she thinks about it, she feels a little scared, feeling like passing by death again, and she doesn't know if the other party recognizes it. own.

At this time, she was the only one in the room. She didn't know how long she had slept, but looking at the surrounding furnishings, she was obviously still in the palace.There was no one around, she kept adjusting her breathing, trying to get rid of that feeling of fear as soon as possible,
At this time, she also recalled that the moment before she passed out, she seemed to be enveloped by an inexplicable cold, which hit her soul directly, and she even felt that her soul was frozen to death at that moment, and she lost consciousness because of it. alleviated.

"Meow!!!"

Suddenly, a sharp meow came from outside, making Xiao Yu tremble with fright.She had just woken up from a nightmare, and the meow was like a little ghost's fingernails scratching on a smooth ground, scratching hard on the eardrums of people, and it was also creepy.

Feeling vigilant, Xiao Yu jumped out of bed and stepped on the ground barefoot, wanting to find out.But before she stepped out of the door, suddenly there seemed to be hundreds of cats howling outside. The screams were sharp and cold, and they came from all directions outside the bedroom, and at the same time, they were accompanied by screams one after another.

There were men and women screaming, and it was accompanied by the fighting with swords. Xiao Yu couldn't check through the doors and windows, but the sound was more like a one-sided massacre.During the massacre, Xiao Yu could clearly hear the miserable screams of sobbing and sobbing, as if countless ghosts were weeping sadly outside her dormitory.

And that voice was rapidly approaching the sleeping hall at this moment.

The strong smell of blood rushed towards her face, and Xiao Yu was so uncomfortable with the smell of salty fish, her stomach was overwhelmed, and she felt a little nauseous. This was the first time she experienced it in her life.

The breath unfolded in an instant, the spiritual power was released in an instant, and the senses also suddenly expanded in the courtyard outside the sleeping hall.With a movement of spiritual power in her right hand, she instantly pulled out the snow-white long sword in the broken world, and she rushed out before the enemy.

When she left the room, the flame barrier set up by Li Fusheng was instantly extinguished.

As soon as he opened the two doors of the bedroom, he saw a lot of corpses lying here and there all over the courtyard, all of them were dressed and dressed as maids and guards arranged by Li Fusheng in the garden.

What was even more frightening was that there were countless translucent people floating in the air. Those people were in ragged clothes, and some of them didn't even have complete clothes. All of them had pale faces and wounds on their bodies. They all looked like they were before death.

Their eyes were staring, as if they were not able to think independently, some were floating back and forth among the dead, sucking flesh and blood, and some were besieging the few living people left, constantly attacking and killing.

This is a group of frightening little devils!
