Chapter 230: Going Through Fire Together "This is the only time that a demon cultivator lost to an immortal cultivator in terms of betrayal." Xizui's hoarse voice was very low, "I can stay to cover our retreat, but can I trust that you won't betray the Saint Demon Lord again?" "You have no choice." Ruan Xing said leisurely, "I'm not a subordinate of the Saint Demon Lord. I don't care about her hard work." Wash away the sin and become silent. He looked at Xie Feng helplessly, then turned around and rushed out of the eggshell. He faced the bloody corpse that was on fire. While his sharp claws were cutting the bloody corpse's body, magma and fire also splashed on him. The blazing white flames were burning, and Xizui's expression looked extremely painful, but he still kept his duty in mind and did not let the blood corpse get close to the eggshell. Ruan Xing didn't feel any urgency about the time she had bought to wash away her sins. She turned to Xie Feng and said, "Just now I said I deliberately let you two meet, you didn't seem very surprised?" "Why, it's my turn now?" Xie Feng laughed. "I know you've been on guard against me. It's normal for Liu Jian to keep an eye on me. You can guess it, but I don't think I said anything to that elder, right?" "Does it matter what was said?" Ruan Xing raised his eyebrows. This was the first time she used the suppressive power in the contract to make Xie Feng obey her orders unconditionally.
Xie Feng's expression changed slightly. However, this was also her first time using the contract, and she was not sure whether Xie Feng had the ability to resist the contract. She took Shen Lingyun out of the storage bag. Shen Lingyun looked at the situation in front of her in confusion. Xie Feng turned his head away and refused to look at her. She seemed to understand something and pursed her lips slightly. Ruan Xing instructed Shen Lingyun, "After I open the Suilingzhu channel, I will put away the Xumi Mirror. Xie Feng will go to stop the big guy below, and you stay here to protect me. If Xie Feng doesn't obey and wants to bring the big guy up, you know what to do, right?" Shen Lingyun nodded solemnly. "Ruan Xing, you are so bad." Even when facing death, Xie Feng still had a meaningless smile on his face. With Shen Lingyun's rigid personality, she will definitely carry out Ruan Xing's orders meticulously. Not to mention that he is now suppressed by the contract and unable to resist, even if he wants to resist, he has to kill Shen Lingyun first. He had the ability to kill Shen Lingyun, but if he wanted to kill him, he would have killed him long ago and would not have stayed until today. Isn't the purpose of a demon cultivator to do whatever he wants in his life? He doesn't want to. "I don't think so." Ruan Xing had already taken out the Suiling Pearl and started to build a passage. She had used it twice in the previous small world and had some experience. Even if she didn't wash her sins, she could use the Suiling Pearl to go back alone. "You are practicing the way of devouring, right? Then you should work hard to eat all these blood corpses and magma, and make this small world yours alone. You can be the uncrowned king here. Don't say that I don't care about our friendship. I have left you a glimmer of hope." "But they taste terrible." Xie Feng said bitterly, "Fairy, do you think so too?" Shen Lingyun pursed her lips and said nothing. "Okay, you've wanted to kill me for a long time, and now you finally got what you wanted, alas." Xie Feng sighed. Ruan Xing had already opened the passage. She said to Shen Lingyun, "After I go back, I will only have ten breaths of time. Don't delay and enter the passage as soon as possible." After seeing Shen Lingyun's agreement, Ruan Xing put away the Sumeru Mirror. The flames in the sky were so hot that they burned the air, making everyone's face red. Xie Feng's body fell vertically without support and landed in a sea of fire.
The magma burned his skin, revealing black and red flesh and white bones. A slender claw stretched out from the magma and grabbed Xie Feng. Xie Feng opened his mouth, chewed the claw into pieces and swallowed it. Xizui had been burned to the point where only half of his body was left of a skeleton. He was still alive, but his mind was not quite clear. He only remembered that he had to stop this bloody corpse, so he stood up again and again and rushed towards the huge fireball. But each attack became weaker and weaker, and his claws and the magic weapons on his body melted in the fire. The blood, magic power and the fire on his body produced a chemical reaction, making a crackling sound. Xie Feng seemed to see what he would look like in the near future. His lower body was also on fire, and soon it would burn his arms and shoulders. The huge fireball leaped into the air again, and the magma on his body splashed randomly. Shen Lingyun stood in front of the transmission channel with a sword across his body, dodging left and right, and refused to give up the entrance to the channel. The Yin energy in Xie Feng's body suddenly burst out, and he opened his mouth to form a black whirlwind, which absorbed the flames burning on the blood corpse towards itself. The blood corpse could not maintain its slender body in the air and was involuntarily sucked down by the suction force. Xie Feng's eyes reflected the firelight, and he shouted, "Why don't you leave? Are you really planning to die with me?" Shen Lingyun stood up in shock, glanced at Xie Feng below with a complicated expression, then turned and flew towards the passage. The passage was less than a few dozen meters away from her, but she was flying very slowly. Xie Feng just looked at her back, waiting for the flames to engulf him. Suddenly, as if he had made some kind of decision, Shen Lingyun flew towards Xie Feng at a faster speed. Xie Feng looked at the white figure in disbelief. Until I hugged her. Her white dress was also stained with fire. Xie Feng held her waist with his bony hands and said, "Why are you coming down? It will hurt to be burned to death." "We are all puppets, so why should we feel pain?" Shen Lingyun said. Puppets without consciousness cannot feel pain. Although they are conscious, they are not using their own bodies after all. Perhaps they will only feel pain when the soul is burned. She looked at the position of Xie Feng's hand with her cold eyes, and said stiffly: "Devil, I allow you to be rude this time." Xie Feng suddenly burst into laughter, "You still understand me... I have spent thousands of years dragging you down with me, and it has finally paid off. You are actually willing to die with me." "I can die with you, but I can't live with you." Shen Lingyun said seriously. So she couldn't save him. She had to obey Ruan Xing's orders. "I know that I have done a lot of evil in my life and I am the kind of person you hate the most." Xie Feng smiled and looked into her eyes, looking at the familiar soul inside her. "In fact, I know that we have been on different paths since the beginning, but in all those years, there were many moments when I wanted to go with you so much, but you refused. I could only ask you to accompany me." "This time, I'm willing to go with you." Shen Lingyun lowered his eyes, "After death, there will be nothing left." "Who knows, what if I really eat it?"
"If I don't die, is it too late for me to regret now?" "It's too late. The passage is closed." In the sea of fire, two figures hugged each other tightly. Ruan Xing waited until the eleventh moment, but Shen Lingyun still did not appear. She asked the hidden Jian Lai beside her, "She won't come back, right?" Jian Lai's voice was filled with the innocence of a young boy, "I will capture her for the master." "No need." Ruan Xing stretched out his hand and closed the transmission channel. She could only let Shen Lingyun make her own choice. If she couldn't get over this hurdle, even if Ruan Xing killed Xie Feng and left her, she wouldn't be able to keep her spirit. She relied on Xie Feng to brainwash herself into accepting the identity of this puppet. Once Xie Feng died, she could not find any reason to live. Neither Ruan Xing nor Xumi Jie could fill the emptiness in her heart. The two connections between Xie Feng and Shen Lingyun in Ruan Xing's mind were completely severed. Taking a deep breath, Ruan Xing walked out of the cave alone and looked at the demon cultivator in the shadows. "Let Shui Linglong come find me." A dark shadow walked out slowly, and the expressionless demon cultivator nodded to her and then left. Shui Linglong soon got the news and came to find Ruan Xing. When she saw that Ruan Xing was the only one there, her expression became a little strange, "Where is Elder Xizuin?" "It's a long story. He died in there. I'll explain it to her in person when I meet the Saint Demon Lord." Ruan Xing said. Shui Linglong's body trembled slightly. She didn't expect that the mysterious and powerful Sin-Washing Elder would die in the secret space. Is this secret space so dangerous? She did not ask any more questions, but said, "Please wait a moment, envoy. I will go and report to the Holy Demon Lord first." Ruan Xing nodded, and Shui Linglong left. After a while, Shui Linglong came back and said, "Saint Demon Lord is free now." Ruan Xing remembered that the demon cultivators in the underground palace could judge whether Saint Demon Lord was in a good mood today by looking at the vines, so he asked, "How is Saint Demon Lord in a good mood?" "I can't really describe it." Shui Linglong replied, "I've never seen that state before. It's neither anger nor happiness." She did not hide the truth from Ruan Xing on purpose. Although the leader of the Fengling Yueying Sect had given her a warning when she went to Nanzhou before, the strong are respected among the magic cultivators. Since the leader was powerful enough to cooperate with the Saint Demon Lord, she had no right to care. Moreover, any movement in the underground palace might be heard by the Saint Demon Lord. She would not say much to Ruan Xing, but she would not lie to him out of selfishness. Ruan Xing felt more confident. Neither angry nor happy, could it be resentful or sad? In short, she knew that Xie Yao was a relatively rational person. Even if he was so angry that he wanted to kill her on the spot, he would endure it and wait until the cooperation was over. She could bear not to kill Ruan Xing even when her own scandal was exposed, so Xie Yao would surely be able to bear to kill one of her subordinates. The little green snake transformed from the pearl curtain twisted itself together like a twist, and did not spit out its tongue when it saw Ruan Xing and Shui Linglong coming. The two men lowered their heads, walked around the little green snakes, and entered the cave.
Xie Yao tilted her head and asked Shui Linglong to leave. The first thing she asked Ruan Xing was, "Did you get the Hongmeng Purple Qi?" "I got it." Ruan Xing replied, "The total amount of this Hongmeng purple energy is enough for the Xiantai tree to grow a path to the sky." "Okay." Xie Yao said. She was silent for a while, then asked, "How did they die?" Ruan Xing's eyes were filled with sorrow. "There is a strange fire corpse in the secret space, guarding the Hongmeng Purple Qi. The fire is burning and there is no solution. They took the initiative to lead the strange fire corpse away for me so that I can get the Hongmeng Purple Qi. However, they are already contaminated with strange fire and cannot be extinguished. If we take them out rashly, I am afraid that the underground palace will be destroyed. I have no choice but to let them stay in the secret space and wait for their flesh, blood and magic power to burn out and die." Xie Yao stopped talking again. She couldn't even be held accountable. Because on the surface, one person each was sacrificed from the Digong and Fenglingyueying Sect. But in fact, Xie Feng was the one who was abandoned since the first day the messenger arrived. Perhaps Xie Yao was the only one who felt sad for the two of them. She let out a long breath and rubbed her fingertips across her palms. She could only wait until everything was over, and then, if she had the chance, she would avenge them. "I understand." Xie Yao said, "When are you leaving?" "After getting one million spirit stones." Ruan Xing replied. Xie Yao felt it was a bit absurd and ridiculous. She was actually still thinking about the one million spirit stones. That’s right, what does Xizui and Xie Feng have to do with her? "It's up to you. If you want to stay in the underground palace, you can ask Shui Linglong to arrange it for you." Xie Yao said lightly. It was long after Ruan Xing left that she looked up at the dome covered with vines with a bitter smile on her face. "Xie Feng, the Sky Devouring Demon Lord who appeared briefly six thousand years ago." “Who will remember you?” She slowly closed her eyes, as if she was falling asleep. Ruan Xing would certainly not stay in the underground palace. After saying goodbye to Shui Linglong, he left the underground palace. Xie Huai was late again as soon as he got the news. When he arrived, Ruan Xing had already gone far away, and only Shui Linglong was left at the entrance of the underground palace. His hurried footsteps stopped on the edge of stepping out of the underground palace. This time no one would sternly stop or warn him not to step out of the underground palace. Xie Huai leaned against the wall in despair, muttering to himself, "Why, why did I die?" Shui Linglong showed pity on her face, and said sympathetically: "Every demon cultivator is like this. You never know whether tomorrow will be the day of your death. Just get used to it."
"I can't get used to it. Isn't he the most powerful elder under the Saint Demon Lord? Why did he die so easily..." Xie Huai couldn't accept it. The old man in gray didn't even wait for the battle between immortals and demons. If he had died in a battle between immortals and demons, perhaps he would not have felt so bad. The news came too suddenly, causing Xie Huai great distress. Yesterday he was still in pain after learning that Saint Demon Lord and Xizui wanted to kill Ruan Xing, and he was struggling over whether to tell Ruan Xing. Today I learned the sad news that Ruan Xing and I had entered the secret space to wash away our sins. Perhaps, Ruan Xing had already guessed what Saint Demon Lord and Xizui were thinking, and was just taking advantage of the situation. Xie Huai looked towards the sky outside the underground palace with somewhat empty eyes. "Go back, Your Highness." Shui Linglong said. However, Shui Linglong, who is in the Jindan stage, can enter and exit the underground palace freely, but he cannot. Is Shui Linglong’s strength enough to protect herself? It's just that he doesn't have the qualifications to talk to or resist the Holy Demon Lord now. Xie Huai clenched his fists dejectedly, then turned and walked towards the interior of the underground palace. His thin and upright figure looked somewhat lonely.
