Chapter 437
Chapter 437
The night was as dark as ink, gently spreading over the ancient and mottled city walls, and the cold wind was mixed with a bit of uneasiness and expectation.
On top of the city wall, there was a bustling atmosphere, but also a sense of oppression and tension, as if even the air had solidified into a heavy block of ink.
"What's going on? Why did the battle stop for no reason?"
Everyone's eyes tried to penetrate the dark night and capture every movement on the battlefield.
"Who won and who lost? Is the competition over?"
"No, not at all."
"How about, which brother can light a fire and shine it?"
……
On the city wall, the sound of discussion rose and fell, like a surging tide. People either leaned against the wall and looked around, or whispered to each other, trying to find answers from each other, but they found that each other's faces were also filled with the same anxiety and doubt.
I turned around and continued to look, but I felt that there was something indescribably strange about the person next to me. I turned my head again and our eyes met. This had never happened before and it was indescribable.
At this moment, how could they look like enemies that had existed for a thousand years?
Everyone who should know the result already knows the result, but it has not been publicized. For Le Zheng, this is naturally a good thing to be happy and proud of, but for the demons, it is inevitable that they are a little unwilling.
However, amidst the noise and chaos, no one easily announced the result, as if everyone was waiting for some unknown opportunity.
Under the city wall, the battlefield shrouded in the night was still quiet and mysterious, and two figures walked towards them side by side.
Le Zheng Shuiling, Le Zheng Qiming and Qing Guo saw Le Zheng Yuhua's figure clearly appear in front of them and ran over immediately. Mo Yu watched Le Zheng Shuiling hug him tightly. He could only sniff as he saw him being surrounded.
"Who's winning?"
Le Zheng Shui Ling asked knowingly.
Mo Yu looked at her, her heart and eyes filled with only Le Zheng Shui Ling, and asked unhappily: "Didn't you ever think about me winning?"
Le Zheng Shui Ling wiped away tears of joy and worry, looked at Mo Yu, and replied: "I saw it all."
When Mo Yu heard this, she remembered her unusual look, smiled to ease the embarrassment, and said: "This guy is impossible to beat. Injuries are meaningless to him. He can't be killed at all."
Le Zheng Shui Ling then flashed in front of him, stared at him and asked: "What do you mean by that? Do you still want to kill my brother? I remember the sword you used to chop him, it was merciless, humph."
"This competition is all about swords and swords. Even though it was an accident, it's normal if it wasn't an accident, right?"
"That's enough, do you understand?"
"not understand."
"Tie."
Hearing what Le Zheng Yuhua said, Mo Yu said angrily: "You are only making me lose face. Losing is losing, winning is winning. I am not so hypocritical as to be so hypocritical."
"One to one, isn't that a tie? You kill me once, and I beat you once, that's fair."
When it comes to this matter, Mo Yu couldn't help asking: "What's going on with you? You said I killed you, but it's better to say that you killed yourself. Don't try to frame me."
"My magic power grew too fast, and it had long exceeded the load of my body, causing disharmony. Coupled with Xin'er's matter, I was sad and angry, and I couldn't feel at ease. I couldn't control the Heavenly Sword, so the Heavenly Sword flew out of my hand uncontrollably.
You were just attacking me normally, and you expected that I could block it. It was just an unexpected thing, and no one can blame anyone. Besides, don’t you think I got a blessing in disguise?
I have surpassed the limits of human body. I have a body that can accommodate stronger power and has super self-healing ability. This should be the credit of Xin'er. I have her blood in my body, and...
Unfortunately, it's okay to deal with you, but it's not enough to deal with him. As long as he is given enough breathing space during the battle, he may use the Wheel of Fortune to do anything and hurt anyone.
I need stronger strength and the skills to better control the power in my body, otherwise things may get out of control, and I may be killed... In short, everything will become uncontrollable, and this uncertainty makes me very unhappy."
"Although I don't fully understand what you said, I can guess the general meaning. If you want to find someone to help, I'm happy to help you."
Seeing Mu Zichu coming over and saying these words, Le Zheng Shuiling's eyes lit up immediately and asked, "Can you take me with you? It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to learn skills from Master Mu."
"You must be very upset to say this, right?"
Mo Yu tried to put his arm around her shoulders and walk to the side, but she dodged him, and he could only watch her pestering Mu Zichu.
"Is it okay? Is it okay?"
Mu Zichu smiled and replied: "Although I know that there is a ghost clan in the underworld, I don't know much about it. You... I really can't do anything. If you are willing to follow your senior brother and go to Penglai Island with me, you can let Yinyin help you, or... His Highness the Demon Lord."
Being suddenly mentioned by him, and since it was not a request from Le Zheng Shui Ling herself, Mo Yu pretended not to hear it and looked into the distance.
"Penglai? Why do we want to go to Penglai? It's quite good in Jimen Pass. Look at the Jimen Plain, isn't it particularly suitable?"
Mu Zichu sighed, showing a sad expression and said: "Yinyin's mother is in poor health, I can't leave for too long, this is one reason.
Since Jimen Pass has been handed over to the demons and the chess pieces have been released, we have to pretend. To be honest, it is not appropriate to swagger back and forth in and out of the pass every day. This is the second reason.
It is always inconvenient at Jimen Pass, and you have to make them willing to accompany the demons in the show, and tell them in advance that they may have to suffer some hardships and grievances.
Now, a pair of black and white guardians have appeared in the immortal world. We don’t know whether there are other hidden powers. We must be extremely cautious in everything we do.”
Le Zheng Shui Ling nodded after hearing this.
"Mr. Mu is right. Since we have chosen to put on a show, we must do it well, so as not to shoot ourselves in the foot. I will discuss this with all the masters. Send a small portion of the forces that can be cultivated out of Jimen Pass, and let them practice on their own, using the excuse of counterattacking the demons, and be ready to fight at any time. For the rest, I hope the Demon Lord can help, at least to give them some self-protection ability and know what a deadpool is."
"Since you call me Demon Lord, you are discussing this with me as the head of the family. I will also be frank with you. As the head of the family, it is probably not easy for you to leave Jimen Pass. Otherwise, you will have more things to deal with, which will restrict your hands and feet. It is better to let others go to Fengwu City to perform."
Le Zheng Shuiling thought about it and understood what he meant. For a moment, she was caught in a dilemma.
Just then, Le Zhengqin stood up.
"I can use the excuse that the patriarch was seriously injured by the demons and is missing, and his life or death is unknown as an excuse to temporarily take over the position of patriarch. When you come back in the future, I can just say that you were saved by Elder Mu and have been recovering somewhere else, and then the others will shut up."
Le Zheng Shuiling knew that he did this for her and wanted to kneel down to thank him, but he stopped her. His words "Go ahead" made her cry.
On the other hand, Mo Yu wanted to take this opportunity to spend more time with her, so she couldn't help but blame him for meddling in her affairs.
