Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 1766 (One Thousand Seven Hundred and Sixty Six) Gloomy

Wu Xunsheng walked towards Tie Hongyan and found that she seemed to be thinking about something, so he sat on the chair beside her bed, looked at her, and did not speak immediately.

Tie Hongyan didn't know why she was thinking about such inexplicable things. Only after he sat near her did she come out of her previous thoughts.

Tie Hongyan felt sleepy and wanted to take a nap immediately.

He saw it.

"Go to sleep if you're tired." Wu Xunsheng said.

Tie Hongyan nodded slightly.

Wu Xunsheng asked: "Did you have a good rest yesterday?"

Tie Hongyan nodded again.

Thinking of the nightmare she had the day before because of the blue-armored man, he felt relieved when he saw her nodding calmly.

However, he was not sure if she would have a nightmare about that kind of thing again. He hoped that she could still sleep peacefully, so he immediately said, "How about you close your eyes and I'm still talking to you?"

Tie Hongyan smiled and nodded again.

Wu Xunsheng told her all those wonderful things again, just like the day before, and Tie Hongyan fell asleep quickly. [Chapter 198]

After Tie Wandao, Hou Jizhuan and those alchemists left Henglianju, they left Aoqian Palace and walked towards the gray house.

After they entered the gray house, Hou Jizhuan closed the door of the gray house from the inside.

After some alchemists entered, they felt that the atmosphere in the gray house was very strange and gloomy, which made them feel uncomfortable.

When they saw those blue-armored men being controlled for the first time, the alchemists all felt that their expressions looked very scary.

The alchemists were all very quiet after entering the gray house. Many of them thought it was a bit weird to speak on their own initiative in such a place.

However, Hou Jizhuan had long been accustomed to such an environment and took the initiative to talk to Tie Wandao.

Hou Jizhuan raised the stick higher and said to Tie Wandao, "This stick has absorbed the soul-purifying energy from the young patriarch. Next, we will perform a ritual to make the soul-purifying energy take effect on the gray house and these human-shaped tools. When the time comes, when the patriarch abuses these human-shaped tools again, their reactions will surely satisfy him."

Hou Jizhuan wanted to say, "When the clan leader abuses these humanoid tools again, their reactions will be the same as before." If he really said that, there would be nothing wrong, but Hou Jizhuan was uneasy. He knew that even if he and other Taoist priests performed the ritual together and the expected effect appeared, these blue-armored people would not feel pain after being abused by Tie Wandao in the future. Although they would still behave in a way that would satisfy Tie Wandao as they did before when they could feel pain, the fact that they could not feel pain could be said to be different from the previous situation. Hou Jizhuan knew that if Tie Wandao discovered that the blue-armored people were different from before in this regard one day, he, as a Taoist priest, would face great danger. Although Hou Jizhuan believed that it would be very difficult for Tie Wandao to discover that the blue-armored people would not feel pain when they were abused in the future, he still did not dare to say that. If it were in the past, he might have dared to tell Tie Wandao just like that, but after experiencing the problem with the gray house and being whipped, his heart would "skip" from time to time, and he didn't know when he would be attacked by unspeakable fear. Even if the fear was not so obvious the next moment, the ups and downs of his mood had already put him in an uncomfortable state, so he dared not speak carelessly.
