As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1153
Chapter 1153 Mysterious Man
Xiao Chen’s eyes were cold as he stared at the thick fog in front of him that was gradually dispersing. At this moment, it slowly gathered again. From thirty feet away, he couldn’t see anything clearly.
Right at this moment, that strange and gloomy laugh came from the depths of the mist once again, “Haha, haven’t you been looking for me? Find me, and you’ll be able to undo the mist in front of you …”
His voice became more and more strange, as if it was not far away from him. However, no matter how Xiao Chen moved forward, the other party maintained a certain distance from him.
The thick fog around him grew deeper and deeper, gradually making him lose his way. He didn’t know where to go, but that strange voice came from right in front of him, sounded from behind him, and then came to the left and right. It was truly strange and unfathomable.
“Playing tricks …”
Xiao Chen’s gaze was icy cold. With a swipe of his finger, the dense fog around him dispersed. He took a step forward and sped forward. About three to five miles away, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. However, when he struck out with his palm, the figure vanished along with the dense fog and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
“What made you feel so resentful? Haha …”
“The past you desperately wanted to know is hidden in this dense fog. You can’t see it. Even if it’s right in front of you, there’s nothing you can do about it …” The strange voice once again resounded faintly, “The past you desperately want to know is hidden in this dense fog. You can’t see it. Even if it’s right in front of you …”
“You know what happened back then.”
As Xiao Chen spoke, he stretched out his divine sense. This was not an illusion. The other party must be hiding in this dense fog. Why, did he want to disturb his mind?
“What happened back then? Haha, of course I know. If you want to know why your parents were hunted down back then, then follow me …”
A strange voice sounded again, but it was getting farther and farther away. Xiao Chen’s expression froze, and Ling Xian Step immediately followed.
Along the way, the voice seemed to have been intentionally or unintentionally disturbing his mind, but now, he was no longer so sensitive to the past.
Regardless of whether it was related to his parents or to Three Corpse Demon, ever since he had “died” in Immortal North Ancient Realm and what Fairy Su Wen had said to him afterwards, he had always been more calm and composed in the face of these things.
“Haha …”
“Your father, Xiao Zhufeng, was said to be a gentle gentleman and a Confucian Saint. Who knew his ambition? He wanted to become the Lord of the Immortal Dimension, he wanted to be the only ruler of the world, and he even sacrificed your mother …”
“Shut up!”
Before this, Xiao Chen’s mind hadn’t been in a state of chaos. However, at this moment, after hearing the other party’s slander, he suddenly felt a surge of hostility in his heart.
Back then, his father stood upright and brave. Outside the Fallen Snow Villa in the Qinling Mountains, in order to protect his mother and his unborn self, on that snowstorm night, he fought alone against those pursuers. Even though he was bathed in blood, those people were unable to approach the Fallen Snow Villa at all.
When Xiao Chen heard these things back in the Qin Clan of the Qin Mountains, it was as if he had experienced them personally. It was as if time had flowed backwards. He had seen with his own eyes that the snowy ground that had been dyed red was filled with blood spilled from his father’s body …
“Haha … Are you unwilling to admit it?”
Finally, the dense fog in front of him dispersed. A figure appeared, his back facing him, wearing a black battle robe.
“Shut up!”
Xiao Chen’s eyes were filled with killing intent. Genuine energy gathered in his palm and abruptly shot behind the man. But when he got closer, the man suddenly turned around. That familiar and unfamiliar face was actually the person he often saw in his dreams.
“How could it …”
At this moment, Xiao Chen’s mind was in turmoil. Why was this person in front of him …
Just as he was absent-minded, the figure in front of him suddenly transformed into a ferocious beast. It opened its bloody mouth and pounced towards him.
“Watch out.”
But at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in the thick fog behind him. That person was Qianyu Nichang. At this moment, he pulled him and flew backwards.
“It’s an illusion created by this person.”
Qianyu Nichang waved his sleeves and quickly formed a seal with his hands. A golden light profound seal flew out, instantly scattering the layers of dense fog that enveloped him.
“Illusion” Xiao Chen’s gaze was certain. Could it be that he had fallen into the illusion created by this person just now?
“Haha …”
At this moment, the strange laughter appeared again. This time, it was not an illusion. A figure slowly appeared where the mist had dissipated.
That person’s entire body was covered in a black robe. He couldn’t see his face, but he could feel two dark and evil eyes beneath the battle robe.
Qianyu Nichang looked at the mysterious black-robed man who suddenly appeared and said coldly, “What? Don’t tell me that you only know how to hide your head and show your tail, and don’t dare to show your true colors?”
“True face? Haha …”
Unexpectedly, the black-robed man only smiled, “All appearances are illusory. Everything is like a dream bubble, like a dew and like lightning … Since all living beings are like this, how can they have their true faces?”
Xiao Chen’s eyes narrowed. The words before him were Buddhist mantras. Who exactly was this person in front of him? Could it be that he was …
Right at this moment, Qianyu Nichang stepped forward and came to his side. He looked at the mysterious black-robed man opposite him and said indifferently, “In this world, there is no such thing as being born together. It is difficult to form together. The length of each person is similar to the other, the height is similar to the other, the sound is similar to the other, and they follow each other back and forth … Why do you say that everything that has a similar appearance is illusory?” In this world, Buddha and demon, good and evil are always opposed to each other, but I don’t know if Your Excellency is a Buddha, a demon, a good or evil. ”
“Haha!”
The black-robed man suddenly raised his head and smiled, “As expected of a disciple under Xuanqing Sect. In the past hundred years, the most outstanding person in Xianyuan Five Realms is just …”
At this point, there seemed to be two deep and cold gazes shot out from beneath the battle robe. At the same time, the black-robed man’s voice became much colder, “But … why didn’t you reveal yourself in your true colors?”
Such a strange sentence stiffened the atmosphere around him. Even Xiao Chen couldn’t help but frown. He subconsciously looked at Qianyu Nichang beside him. What did this man mean? What Qianyu Nichang was, it didn’t show its true colors.
“Haha, what’s wrong? Are you speechless … Fairy Qianyu?”
The black-robed man’s voice became more and more gloomy, and Qianyu Nichang’s expression remained as calm as the autumn water. There was no fluctuation. He sent a secret message to Xiao Chen, “This person is trying to disturb our minds. We mustn’t fall into his trap.”
Xiao Chen slowly turned around and looked at the mysterious black-robed man in front of him. At this moment, he finally dared to determine the identity of this person. He said, “Your Excellency has never revealed your true face, but in the end, that person was still able to find out. This is one of the reasons why you chased after him back then, right? Hidden Saint …”
