Chapter 216: The End of the Road
Long Qi examined Lingxiang carefully, his face full of nervousness. He didn't know whether Lingxiang was injured, but he didn't dare to overstep the line in front of Zhao Wuyang and Adao.
Lingxiang didn't look like she was before, her expression had returned to normal, but although she said that it was okay, she was comforting the worried Long Qi while listening carefully to Zhao Wuyang's pulse.
Zhao Wuyang's walking on the Gangdao used up a lot of spiritual energy. Even though he took the Spirit Gathering Pill later, he still had to force himself to do it again.
In fact, Zhao Wuyang was already fine, and Lingxiang's elixir would certainly not go wrong, but she was still very worried. Zhao Wuyang's resolute look lingered in her mind.
She had never thought that anyone would die for her, never, but at that time Zhao Wuyang was clearly determined to die!
Long Qi frowned and looked at Ling Xiang. He had never seen Ling Xiang show her concern for others like she did today. It was not that Ling Xiang didn't care about others, but she would always make plans for others without leaving any trace, even when she was laughing or scolding.
Looking at Ling Xiang like this, Long Qi's eyes darkened. Thinking back to just now, Ling Xiang's expression was something he had never seen before, full of fear and deep self-blame...
If Xinyi and I hadn't rushed back in time, Lingxiang and Wuyang would have died at the hands of that old witch.
When he thought of this, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in Long Qi's eyes.
That Yinghua killed his family, and now she wants to take Lingxiang away from him. Fortunately, she ran fast. If she meets her again, she will be doomed!
While Long Qi was lost in thought, Ling Xiang had finished treating Zhao Wuyang. Zhao Wuyang brushed off his robe, stood up and looked outside the cave, his eyes full of worry.
"Brother Xinyi, he..."
Although he hadn't finished speaking, everyone knew what he wanted to say. Long Qi sighed and said nothing.
"I guess Madam Lu is saying goodbye to him now!"
Lingxiang said as she held Long Qi's hand, and Long Qi shook her hand back, but his eyes were looking outside the cave - he was also very worried about Xinyi.
"Farewell?" Zhao Wuyang was puzzled. "What farewell?"
Lingxiang sighed and thought of Zhuhuang of Kunwu Sect, who was just a child.
"That's what Xianghua did. She trapped a person's soul in a body so that she could know everything about the body and deceive others."
Zhao Wuyang's eyes widened when he heard this. Peeling off a person's skin was already extremely cruel, and trapping the person's soul in the skin, this... this is simply...
"Inhumane!" Zhao Wuyang said hatefully with a frown.
Lingxiang smiled, but her smile looked a little sad: "She is originally a demon, how can she be humane?" She hasn't even said anything worse yet!
If you want to confine the soul in the skin, you must skin the person alive. This is what Lingxiang later saw in "Majin Yihua".
However, Lingxiang looked at the mist outside the cave and did not say this. Zhao Wuyang was a simple child, simple and kind. At his age, it was better not to let him know such dark things.
She really couldn't forget that look, that smile, and...
And there is Long Qi.
Although I lost my mind at that time, I was not out of my mind.
……
Yinghua raised her claws and roared, and Zhao Wuyang also shouted the name of Beidou. Lingxiang tried her best to pull Zhao Wuyang. There was a loud bang, broken wood flew everywhere, and the Huanghuali table and chairs were smashed to pieces...
However, it was just a table and chairs. Not far away, Long Qi was holding Lingxiang with his back to Yinghuan, while Zhao Wuyang was carried on Xinyi's shoulder with one hand and a tray with a teapot and teacups on it in the other hand.
"After running all the way, tea is indispensable." Xinyi said, putting Zhao Wuyang down.
Zhao Wuyang finally came back to his senses from his surprise, and when he saw Xinyi, tears welled up in his eyes. He thought this was the end of his rope, and he was determined to die.
Seeing him like this, Xinyi smiled and touched his head, then handed the tray over: "Thank you for your help."
Zhao Wuyang took the tray and tears rolled down his eyes.
Long Qi also gently put Lingxiang down, but Lingxiang felt that Long Qi was a little different. She could sense that Long Qi was full of violence.
Lingxiang looked up at Long Qi, but Long Qi had already rushed out with his sword. The Longyuan Sword glowed red, steaming the surrounding water vapor, and was violently slashed by Long Qi, and every move was extremely fierce.
Yinghuan was completely unable to fight back against Long Qi's fierce sword moves and could only use her giant turtle to block.
Even so, Long Qi was unable to do anything to her. Even though Yinghua had drunk Lingxiang's tea and was too weak to attack, she was still a demon general after all, while Long Qi was only at the foundation building stage. With such a huge difference in strength, he only left a few shallow wounds on her body.
But Long Qi did not stop. His sword moves seemed to be in disarray, as if he was just swinging his sword randomly.
No! He was just slashing randomly! Long Qi didn't treat Long Yuan as a sword at all, but slashed like a knife!
Seeing Long Qi like this, Lingxiang suddenly remembered that Long Qi had also fallen into the same situation in Liangcheng last year. She hurriedly said to Xinyi, "Stop him quickly! Otherwise, he will go crazy!"
Xin Yi naturally noticed Long Qi's abnormality, but he couldn't intervene for the time being. Long Qi's spiritual energy was chaotic and his sword energy was rampant. If he wanted to stop him, he had to find a flaw, otherwise he might be implicated.
At this moment, perhaps because Yinghuan had accumulated enough strength, she turned around and exposed herself in front of Long Qi. Then she caught the Longyuan Sword with one claw, and used the other claw wrapped in poison gas to attack Long Qi's chest.
In a flash, Xinyi twisted her fingers, and then her figure flashed behind Long Qi, restraining him and dragging him backwards.
"Long Qi! Calm down! You scared Ling Xiang!"
When Long Qi heard Xin Yi mention the spiritual incense, he came back to his senses and suddenly felt that he had lost all his strength. At this moment, Yinghua disappeared in a flash.
……
Lingxiang glanced at Long Qi, her eyes full of worry. This was not the first time that Long Qi had lost his mind. Last time, she was able to subdue him with the Qingxin Talisman only because her cultivation was higher than his. Now that their cultivations were equal, if she met him again, she would probably find it difficult to subdue him.
The reason why Long Qi became like this is related to his childhood experiences. This is a heart injury that cannot be cured by ordinary medicine.
Lingxiang caressed Long Qi's palms, thinking about how to prevent him from falling into the same situation again. The calluses on his hands were much thicker than before, probably because he had held the sword too many times.
Lingxiang glanced at Zhao Wuyang again and decided on something. When she was about to speak, she saw Xinyi walking in from outside.
Zhao Wuyang wanted to comfort him, but he couldn't say a word after he walked over. Seeing his worried face, Xinyi just smiled and rubbed his head. That smile didn't look sad, but relieved.
"Mrs. Lu...sent her off?" Lingxiang asked.
Xinyi nodded, his eyes were red, obviously he had been crying, but he didn't say anything else, instead he said something else: "It's not advisable to stay here for long, pack up and leave!"
