Chapter 213: Picking up the Mirror (18)
She said, "My master has passed away. I begged him to kill me after I became a demon. Now this wish has become a bubble. If it were you, the sword spirit would not be able to stop you. As for the others... Oh, I can't think of anyone in this world who has the ability to kill me. So, I have to think of a way to find a few people to unite and kill me."
madman!
Cang Xue was silent, with a gloomy face. He had never thought that someone could be so crazy!
"I have been losing my mind more and more, and my clear moments are becoming less and less. If I disobey Master's orders, I am afraid... I will think of him, and the way he scolded me when I was a child... I will be sad."
Cang Xue looked at her. This was the first time he showed such a lonely expression after she ascended to become an immortal.
Just like the little girl who longed for her master to spend more time with her more than ten years ago.
Cang Xue resonated with her and felt a little sad in his heart. He regained his composure and asked her again: "Since you want to see the King of Hell so much, why don't you find a few masters in the world to kill you together? Now it seems that you are seeking the farthest thing from the near."
At this time, the female devil regained her usual unrestrained and uninhibited appearance. She raised her head and chuckled, looking at the rolling clouds. Her smile grew deeper and deeper, and she became more carefree and unrestrained. She said, "Haha, this world is just a chess game. All living beings, including you and me, are chess pieces. Heaven has its way, so why fear life and death? If they have the ability to kill me, I will enjoy my destiny! If they don't have the ability to plan, what if I become a devil? That only means that this is my fate! They just don't have that ability!"
Cang Xue's heart was also filled with joy. He narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Okay, I will play this game with you. Life and death depends on fate. I have agreed in advance that I will not participate in any party disputes. You can make your own decisions. I will only give you a little strength when I am in a good mood. Just think of it as me taking care of Lu Xin's apprentice on his behalf."
The female devil put her hands into her wide sleeves. A gust of wind blew, ruffling her long black hair and skirt, making her look wanton and free. She also smiled and said, "Okay."
The illusion on the sword disappeared at this moment, and Mu Hanxing was extremely shocked, as if struck by lightning.
"Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye... I mean, from the time you established Fuyue City to now." Cang Xuejian couldn't help but sigh.
Ten years...ten years...
It turns out that the real original owner was the mastermind who had been planning for ten years!
She spent ten years setting up a grand scheme and planning her own death!
"I think you've won this game of chess, haha." Cang Xue continued meaningfully, "If they could defeat you and better control Fuyue City, it would be fine... but now, the situation is unpredictable..."
……
When she came out of the mirror, Cang Xue had disappeared. She probably hid in the sword and continued to sleep.
She stood alone in the secret room, and what she saw in the mirror took her a long time to digest in her heart. She calmed down for a while before pushing the door open and going out.
Chuntao was the only one left guarding the concubine's room.
She looked around and saw that everyone had left. She asked him hurriedly, "Chun Tao, why are you the only one left?"
Chuntao was supporting her head with one hand and was almost drowsy. When she heard her voice, she shuddered and stood up immediately, going over to see if she had any injuries.
He looked at it and said anxiously, "Lord City Lord! You came out? It's been a whole day and night! We thought something happened to you in there. Master Jing and the others were a little worried, so they tried to go in one by one to find out what happened. Who would have thought that the magic weapon was not allowed to be entered by outsiders? Then they asked me to guard the door of the secret room and not let anyone in, while they went out to do their own things or to keep an eye on you separately."
"What are you busy with? What are you following? Is there anything urgent?" Mu Hanxing asked.
"The leader of Qionghua went to the medicine furnace to research new medicine. Some of them went to keep an eye on Cui Ren and his gang, and the rest went to supervise the promotion ceremony to 'Elder Yaoguang'. Elder Tang sent someone here before and said that you can attend the promotion ceremony after you finish your work." Chun Tao continued, "Then Master Jing said that we should find someone to supervise the promotion ceremony to avoid any mistakes, so that it will be used by people with ulterior motives and hurt you."
She was silent for a moment, thinking that there was nothing wrong with the decision made by several people. Being promoted to Elder Yaoguang was something that many people dreamed of, and it was inevitable that some people would be jealous and deliberately make trouble to prevent her from being promoted.
"Well done, I'll go out and take a look."
"Okay, I'll go with you." Chuntao still dressed up as a chivalrous knight, always following her and protecting her without leaving her side.
At the altar in front of the mountain, many disciples had already started coming and going and setting up banquets. It seemed that the promotion ceremony would be held near the altar. She had never participated in a similar ceremony in the cultivation world and had no idea how it was held. Since it was arranged by her little godfather, she would just obey.
When several disciples of the mountain sect saw her, they bowed and said respectfully, "Elder Yaoguang."
These few people are considered heroes because they know how to adapt to the changing times.
There was no expression on her face, she nodded as a response, this was originally her place, so she just accepted it calmly. The people around her heard the noise, saw her and called her respectfully, but unlike in the past, they treated her like a ghost, with either hatred or fear in their eyes.
It seems that the plan to rescue Cui Ren back to the mountain was successful. At least, she is no longer a possessed person in everyone's mind. She is the hero who saved the leader and her character is established.
"City Lord!" Feng Xiao spotted her from a distance and almost flew over.
He was not shy. After all, everyone in the three realms knew that he was hers, so he flew over and gave her a hug, pulling her into his arms, and rubbed her shoulders like a little animal: "I'm glad you're okay. I was worried sick when you didn't come out for a day."
She hugged Feng Xiao and reassured him: "It's okay. The things my master left me won't be in danger. It's reasonable for you not to enter."
Lu Xin probably doesn't want outsiders to know about this anymore in his life.
When she mentioned her master, her heart ached, and then, a surge of hatred surged in her heart. The more grief-stricken and angry she was, the easier it was for the evil spirits that resonated with her to take advantage of any gaps and control her mind. She could faintly sense that Cang Xue was helping her control the evil spirits and keeping her awake at all times.
"Where are the others?" she asked, letting go of Feng Xiao.
Feng Xiao looked back at the altar and said, "Gong Yu was afraid that someone might have tampered with the candles and incense ashes used in the ceremony, so he went to check it out himself."
That's right, it's inevitable that these people will take advantage of some unexpected incident to prevent the ceremony from taking place.
Mu Hanxing searched carefully near the altar and indeed saw Gong Yu in the crowd. He was carefully checking all the items for the ceremony. She herself had not expected this, but Gong Yu was very thoughtful.
