Chapter 299
299 The loneliest thing is to want to stay but not be able to
The Black Tortoise left.
Of course, it wasn’t a peaceful departure, but a safe one.
After it had shown enough kindness to Li Chu, it turned around and reintegrated into the void when it saw that he did not move.
He disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Looking at the direction he left, Li Chu was a little puzzled.
“This Black Tortoise seems to be quite friendly?”
“Ha.”
The small monk shook his head with a smile.
“There were ten divine beasts in the primordial year, five auspicious and five inauspicious. Although the four symbols are classified as five auspicious signs, don’t think that they are really close to humans. That’s because their original name was the ‘ten vicious’! ”
“The so-called five good luck is only five good luck after being offered Amnesty,”
the remaining five great beasts are still stubborn and can’t be subdued.
“In fact, the so-called five good and five bad luck can also be regarded as a watershed in strength. Although the ten great divine beasts were all at the peak of the human realm, their battle strength was also divided into high and low. Among them, the one who couldn’t beat the humans became Wu Ji. The rest are the five beasts.”
“This time, Lord Cang hai has clearly reached an agreement with the Black Tortoise. If not for the fact that there is something that Black Tortoise fears, I’m afraid he would not hesitate to help Lord Cang hai destroy shenluo city!”
Li Chu mumbled,”to make Black Tortoise fear him.”
“If I’m not wrong, Yingluo …” The small monk frowned and said,”It has been looking at us just now. It must have felt that if we work together, we have the ability to fight against the top in the world,”
“For this kind of ancient divine beast, increasing its strength may be very important, but it’s not that important. There’s no need for me to risk my life for this.”
“And in order to express goodwill to us, it even decisively killed Lord canghai Zhenzhen.”
The small monk wiped the cold sweat on his bald head.
“That was really close.”
“It’s a good thing we scared it away.”
Was it?
Li Chu was still a little confused.
However, he also nodded in agreement. yeah, that was close.
At the same time, he also turned his gaze to the other side of Tianlu peak.
Inside shenluo city.
He scanned his mind and realized that the entire shenluo city was shrouded in a strange smoke.
It seemed to be an illusion.
“I’ll go take a look.”
Out of concern for the flowers Festival, its audience, and some investors, Li Chu leaped and quickly returned to shenluo city.
Only then did he see.
The entire city was surrounded by peonies, but at this time, all the petals were releasing a cloud of smoke, causing the entire city to fall into a huge illusion.
So it turns out that
Was there such a move in Lord Eon’s plan?
In addition to being used as the reason for the gathering of flowers, these flowers were also the trigger for the illusion. One of his subordinates could use the pollen to cast an illusion.
He wanted all the people of shenluo city to die in the illusionary realm.
What was the reason for being so deranged?
Li Chu had a little confidence in his ability to resist illusions. In addition, he was worried that something might happen, so he directly found the center of the ” mie.
The flower in the center of the storm.
Hua qiluo.
Now that she thought about it, her exchange with Shen Ming’s lover was definitely the work of Lord Cang hai.
It was all for this dream that gathered all the people in the city!
PA.
Li Chu landed on the stage.
Hua qiluo, who was wearing a feather coat, looked at him. She was calm and didn’t panic.
“Since you’re here, does that mean that the Lord has failed?”
“Yes, I am.” you’ve been surrounded, ” Li Chu said coldly. give up on resisting and remove the illusion. You might be able to get a lighter sentence.
“Broad?”
Hua qiluo laughed.
“We’re from The Fiend sects. How can we be magnanimous when it comes to massacring cities? Do you think you’re making noodles?”
Li Chu fell silent.
She was right.
As a direct subordinate of Lord Cang hai, it was indeed difficult for her to have a good end.
“It doesn’t matter. When we did this, we already guessed that this would be the outcome.” Hua qiluo seemed to be very open about it, ” if you win, your chickens and dogs will rise to heaven. If you lose, naturally there will be chaos.
As she spoke, her voice gradually became low and her eyes suddenly became unfocused.
“I’ve kept this body intact. If that girl wants to come back, Yingying can still come back.”
Plop.
Before he could finish, a gorgeous figure fell to the ground.
Li Chu’s eyes flickered. He walked up to her and realized that she had dispersed her soul on her own accord.
This was a very difficult way of dying. Those whose soul cultivation was not high enough could not do it.
Of course.
It was definitely not on par with the difficulty of Lord Eon sea’s summoning of the Black Tortoise to swallow him.
Li Chu did not feel much about her death.
After all, other than a few rare accidents like the flying sand, the people of the demon sect had to sacrifice countless lives before they could rise to power. No matter how he died, it was hard to feel sympathy for him.
Of course.
Lord Eon sea’s ‘summoning the Black Tortoise to swallow him’ still made people feel very pitiful.
This was unavoidable.
The moment Hua qiluo’s body fell, the flower mist that covered shenluo city began to dissipate. It turned into countless light spots and disappeared in the north wind.
The audience below also quickly woke up.
The dancing woman on the stage disappeared, and in the blink of an eye, she turned back into a young Taoist priest in green.
In front of the little Daoist priest lay a delicate figure.
“What a good fellow!”
Someone immediately exclaimed.
“This little Taoist came to ruin miss Xie’s first show yesterday, and today he actually committed a crime on miss Hua’s stage!”
“Catch him!”
“We can’t let him go!”
“Hurry and see if miss Hua is alright!”
Looking at the agitated crowd around him, Li Chu really wanted to explain.
No, I just saved shenluo city.
However, it was obvious that no one would listen to what he said. Li Chu could only shake his head helplessly and disappeared on the fiery meteor.
In any case, the Imperial court would definitely make an announcement after this.
It was better to bow first.
……
That night.
Li Chu had a dream.
In his dream, he saw a small itinerant peddler. He was born in poverty, but he relied on his smart mind to do some small businesses and gradually made his days comfortable.
Originally, his life was also considered happy.
That was until he met a courtesan.
He fell in love with the courtesan at first sight and would have to save up for many days before he would have the chance to see her again.
But he enjoyed it.
The courtesan was called Xue ‘e. She wanted to achieve good results in the flower City conference, but she had not been able to do so for several years.
One day, she met an old man who was buying souls.
She had made an agreement with the old man in exchange for a beautiful dance.
If the dance was enough, she was enough.
She shocked the world at the flower City conference and won the top scorer of the flower country that year, bringing her endless glory.
The itinerant peddler was very dejected, because the money he had saved up in his entire life was not enough to meet a top courtesan.
However, Hua kui came to find him.
Hua kui said that she had made a deal with someone and had to sell out a soul that loved her.
However, in the entire shenluo city, only the itinerant peddler truly loved her.
Even after she became famous overnight and gained thousands of fans, she still did not change.
Yes, countless people were fanatical about her and spent a lot of money on her, but the one who truly loved her was still the same person.
It seemed bizarre, but it was the truth.
Now that things had come to this, it seemed that all he had to do was to hand over the little itinerant peddler’s soul to that person.
However, Yingluo
Hua kui had also fallen in love with that little itinerant peddler long ago.
She did not want him to die.
Therefore, she came to remind him to leave shenluo city as soon as possible.
The itinerant peddler was both scared and worried.
Hua kui told him to leave without worry, saying that shenluo city was so big, and he had so many fans. Would he still be worried that he would not be able to find a second person who loved him?
In the end, the itinerant peddler still left.
Actually, he didn’t want to leave. He wanted to stay.
But the fear of death still made him take a step forward.
He left for a foreign land, and his encounters after that were very bizarre. Because of his temperament and talent, he was taken in as a disciple by an Almighty of the demon sect. When he felt that he had gained some cultivation, he quickly returned to shenluo city.
It was only later that he found out that Hua kui had died in the same year.
Shenluo city was so big, yet she still could not find a second person who loved her.
Everything was fake.
A seed of hatred was planted in the little itinerant peddler’s heart.
His own cowardice was also directed at the city.
Wanting to stay but not being able to stay was the loneliest.
Before she finished, only Li Ge was left.
With such an obsession, he was trapped at the gate of becoming a demigod for ten years.
He began to have a crazy idea.
Since this city was so cold and emotionless, it was better to let it be frozen at its most prosperous moment. She wanted everyone in the city to die in her dream and then seal them up forever.
He was good at doing business.
But his obsession was also because of a business.
In that business, he had a chance to struggle on whilst at death’s door, but he lost the person he loved the most.
He had set up this huge gamble, perhaps not just because he wanted to break through, but perhaps just to seek release. Either he transcended the world, or his soul returned to one place.
Death was a reunion after a long time.
In this ancient city, there would be a Grand snowstorm every winter, and brilliant flowers would bloom every May. Every night, there would be beautiful women dancing, but the most beautiful girl would never come back.
More than 30 years had passed.
No one would miss her anymore.
……
When she woke up, it was already the next morning.
The new snow had just fallen.
Li Chu looked out of the window and fell into a daze for a moment.
Lord vastsea was truly a very stubborn person.
The unfinished story, he actually had to finish it in his dreams even after death.
This kind of person.
No wonder he could make a fortune.
