As the Universe Turns - Chapter 568
Chapter 568 Sword Tomb
In the forest behind him, the few people from the Tai Shi Dao Sect were gathered together, especially the middle-aged man in red. At this moment, his expression was tense, afraid that the Flowing Fire Pearl would be snatched away.
At this moment, a faint fragrance suddenly appeared in the evening breeze. The red-robed middle-aged man’s heart trembled, “Hold your breath!”
However, he was already speaking slowly. A moving laugh sounded, “I don’t know if I’m a guest in my dreams, but I’ve been greedy for a long time …”
As his voice faded, a faint fragrance burrowed into the noses of the few people. Those people immediately seemed to have lost their minds, and their faces were filled with spring. Even the middle-aged man in red, who had a higher cultivation, had been struck by illusions.
“Heh …”
Hua Weiyang smiled faintly and immediately appeared out of the mist. He reached out to the red-clothed middle-aged man and said, “Give me the Flowing Fire Pearl.”
“Immortal … Fairy …”
The red-clothed middle-aged man’s consciousness was blurry. At this moment, he actually saw her as the Fairy in the sky. Slow down, a small Flowing Fire Pearl was willing to die for the other party. He immediately obediently handed over the Flowing Fire Pearl.
“Not good … the Flowing Fire Pearl was taken away by that demonic woman!”
The two Old man Qingyi reacted and were about to turn around to grab the Flowing Fire Pearl, when a palm force from behind whistled towards them. The two of them had no time to look around, so they could only turn around and press towards the palm force. With a loud boom, a large area of nearby trees collapsed.
“Idiot, I’ve got the Flowing Fire Pearl … Hurry up and leave!”
Hua Weiyang put the Flowing Fire Pearl into his sleeve, and Xiao Chen no longer entangled with the two old men. After sending them back with his last palm, they disappeared.
“Senior Brother … hurry up and chase after him!”
The black-haired old man suddenly reacted and was about to chase after him when the white-haired old man pulled him back, “Junior Brother, wait a moment!”
“What’s the matter?”
The black-haired old man turned around with a slightly puzzled expression on his face. The white-haired old man’s eyes narrowed as he pondered in his heart, “Those two people just now were definitely not ordinary people, and the palm power that that person used was faintly similar to that of the Xuanqing Sect, but it was different. Could it be …”
Hearing this, the black-haired old man suddenly seemed to have thought of something. His face was slightly shocked as he blurted out three words, “Xiao Yichen …”
“Why did you provoke this fiend star …”
The white-haired old man’s expression suddenly darkened and became extremely ugly. If it was anyone else, he would have gone to snatch the Flowing Fire Pearl back tonight. However, when he thought of Xiao Yichen, he couldn’t help but have some misgivings in his heart.
“Then what should we do?”
At this moment, the black-haired old man seemed to be somewhat unconvinced. The white-haired old man shook his head and said, “Find a way to inform the two elders about this matter first.”
Evidently, the two of them weren’t together with the four of them, but they already knew about the four of them. The white-haired old man didn’t want to rashly cause such trouble.
…
Speaking of Xiao Chen and Hua Weiyang, the two of them had already fled a thousand miles away. Because they had obtained the Flowing Fire Pearl, a faint aura of Flowing Fire had already enveloped Hua Weiyang’s body. The aura of the Flowing Fire Pearl could not be concealed. If it was emitted like this, it would easily attract cultivators nearby.
“Let’s go ahead first.”
Xiao Chen saw a valley in front of him. He immediately went in with her and found a cave. After that, he sat down cross-legged and circulated his cultivation to regulate his breathing.
Seeing that he had been looking a little pale since just now, Hua Weiyang asked with a frown, “Are you hurt?”
“No problem.”
As Xiao Chen circulated his martial arts, he slowly said that the sword injuries caused by the Autumn Water Sword could not be easily healed. Otherwise, Qianyu Nichang would not have spent so much effort to heal his injuries in those two days.
Previously, he had affected his injuries and hadn’t fully recovered. He had just fought a few more moves against two Soul Formation cultivators in the woods, and it was obvious that he had faintly affected his injuries.
Hua Weiyang was quick-witted, thinking that if he hadn’t been injured along the way, then the injuries on his body were caused when he was separated from himself.
“Let me see.”
She walked over and pressed her hand on Xiao Chen’s shoulder. She knew that the injury was on her chest, and that it was not light. She couldn’t help but frown, “Why are you injured so badly? You didn’t say …”
As she spoke, she pulled open the front of Xiao Chen’s chest. When she saw that terrifying sword wound, she couldn’t help but tremble slightly, “This is …”
“It’s just a sword wound. It’s fine.” Xiao Chen’s eyebrows furrowed slightly as he gently removed her hand and closed her skirt.
At this moment, a trace of coldness suddenly flashed in Hua Weiyang’s eyes. “She hurt you … She’s really ruthless. This sword strike almost killed you. If you were to tilt your heart a little bit more, wouldn’t that be …”
At this point, she looked at Xiao Chen and said, “She stabbed you with this sword. I will definitely avenge you in the future.”
Xiao Chen did not look like she was joking at this moment, afraid that something would go wrong with her. Even he did not dare to underestimate Qianyu Nichang’s current cultivation. How could Wei Yang be his opponent and say, “Revenge? Can you beat her?”
“Whoever says revenge must rely on force,” said Hua Weiyang.
Xiao Chen shook his head, “Don’t provoke her. If she sees you, she will definitely kill you.”
“Hmph.”
Hua Weiyang snorted softly, and a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes. But gradually, when she looked at Xiao Chen again, the coldness in her eyes had turned into tenderness again …
She couldn’t help but be stunned. She wondered why her heart ached when she saw the sword wound on his body just now. Why did she instantly think of avenging him for this sword attack? Could it be that in just a few short days, she actually had feelings for this idiot?
How is that possible? After all, he used to be a member of the Xuanqing Sect. He still hasn’t forgotten his master and junior sister, but he is …
But if that was the case, why did Xian Shu say that day outside the Hundred Flowers Secret that she would not leave him? Outside, only he could believe that only he would not harm her. Why … what exactly did she forget?
Xiao Chen raised his head and saw her looking at him like this. “What’s wrong with you?” He asked.
“Ah?”
Only then did Hua Weiyang regain his senses and hurriedly turn his face to the side. His heart couldn’t help but pound. His face was also slightly hot, but he thought in his heart, “Strange, what was he thinking just now?”
Seeing her strange expression, Xiao Chen thought to himself, Could it be that she had gradually remembered those memories? If she can’t remember … then that’s fine.
The next day, the two of them headed towards the third floor of the Land of Ancient Desolation. The Sword Tomb was located at the deepest part of the third floor, but it was mostly dangerous and unpredictable.
It wasn’t until twilight fell that the two arrived at the third floor of the Land of Ancient Desolation. This floor was filled with strange clouds, and the sky was extremely abnormal. Sometimes black clouds surged, sometimes lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, and sometimes multicolored light shone down from the clouds.
“Looks like … he is indeed here.”
Hua Weiyang looked at the distant multicolored light. At this moment, she sensed a strange Spiritual Energy. This Spiritual Energy came from a very far place, and that place was also unusual. It should be the Sword Tomb.
