If you don't give up, I'd like to be your adoptive father.

Chapter 416 Turbid Air
That night, Yonghe Palace.

A small study outside the prince's bedroom.

"Bang~~" The tea bowl that Li Rongji had just put to his mouth fell directly to the ground and shattered.

He was unaware of anything and just stared blankly at He Xuan in front of him. It took him a long time to recover from his shock.

However, Li Anmin, a commoner, had been shocked when he heard the news outside the palace. He still looked shocked, but not stunned.

"How is Master Xiang's injury?" he asked on behalf of the prince.

He Xuan said: "The internal organs are bleeding and parts of the body are burned, but these flesh wounds are minor.

He also seemed to be attacked by the nightmare power of the Seven Arrows Book, and was still unconscious at this time. "

Li Rongji slowly came back to his senses and asked in a hoarse voice, "Are you sure Zhao is dead without a complete body?"

"It's not completely reduced to ashes." He Xuan waved to the servant behind him, took a wooden box and placed it on the coffee table next to Li Rongji.

"If your highness doesn't mind, you can open it and read it yourself."

Li Rongji's mind was in a mess, so why would he care whether it was a corpse or not?

He immediately opened the lid of the box and saw a thick layer of charred debris inside.

It was like a piece of kraft paper that had not been completely burned and carbonized.

Above the layer of charred debris, there were a few charred remains that looked like hands and feet.

It was completely burnt black, with only the texture of the skin vaguely visible on the surface.

Lee Jung-gi also reached out and picked up the largest piece, which was very light and crispy.

With a gentle pinch, it immediately breaks into pieces.

"Didn't Zhao Zhen suffer the backlash of the curse? How come he seemed to have been placed in a jar and burned for several days before dying?"

He Xuan said: "There was indeed a fire at the scene, but it was not a fire, but Zhao Zhen's body exploded into millions of flames, igniting the nearby decks.

Why is he like this?"

He frowned and thought for a while, then said, “I suspect that the five elements in Zhao Zhen’s body are unbalanced and his anger is too strong.

He had previously experienced symptoms of burning internal organs, and touching his skin felt like touching burning charcoal, very hot.

Xiang Tianshi pushed him onto the altar violently, disrupting the ritual of the spell, and the candlelight directly set Zhao Zhen on fire.

Attacked from both inside and outside, the evil fire in his body could no longer be suppressed and suddenly erupted.

The essence and blood in the body, even the soul, all turned into flames. "

"Even the soul is burned to ashes? The soul is scattered?" Li Rongji was shocked.

He Xuan nodded solemnly and said, “The explosion attracted the City God Guan, and he personally checked it out.

Zhao Zhen's soul is nowhere to be found, and most likely burned to nothingness."

Li Rongji's eyes flickered as he asked, "Are you sure that it was because you interfered with Zhao Zhen's spell casting by Xiang Tianshi that caused this disaster?
Could it be Yu Fengxian’s problem?

She said that she was carrying the destiny, and if Zhao Zhen dared to curse her, he would be retaliated against."

He Xuan said with certainty: “If Master Xiang had not pushed Zhao Zhen down and disrupted the ritual, Zhao Zhen would not have died tonight.

If Your Highness has any doubts, you can ask a sorcerer to go and check the scene.

Or ask Leng Mansion's assassins to come and ask.

At that time, the oil lamp above the straw man was knocked over, which not only set Zhao Zhen on fire, but it seemed that the straw man caught fire first, and then even the seven-arrow book with nails on the head began to burn fiercely.

In that case, let alone the natural saint Yu Fengxian, even if the target of the curse was an ordinary wandering monk, Zhao Zhen would still not die a good death. "

Li Rongji really couldn't accept such an outcome.

If Yu Fengxian attacked the Longxiang ship alone with a sword, she would start a massacre, kill all the assassins in the Leng Mansion, and finally burn Zhao Zhen to death.

He could only curse, "Yu Fengxian is so audacious, he deserves to die."

As for whether Yu Fengxian would die, he didn't know.

Anyway, he was only responsible for reporting the details of the incident to the Daqin Public Vehicle Office.

Now it was Master Xiang Tianshi who was under his command. He received his order and went to the Longxiang Tower Ship. He ended up interfering with Zhao Zhen's spellcasting, leading to the tragedy. Who is responsible?

He struggled and said, “What I mean is, is it possible that Zhao Zhen has reached his limit?

"The accidental failure of Xiang Tianshi, which caused him to knock over the lantern, was just the last straw that broke the camel's back?"

He Xuan glanced at him and said, “Your Highness, Master Xiang Tian was just traumatized and fainted.

You can ask him about the specific details after he wakes up."

Li Rongji frowned and said, "Even if it happened suddenly, you were there with many experts, why didn't you stop Master Xiang?"

He Xuan said awkwardly: “I didn’t stand by and watch, and Leng Aotian only watched it twice.

I just saw Zhao Zhen worshipping the Seven Arrows Book and the straw man. There was nothing interesting to see."

After a pause, he hesitated and said, "I heard from the Leng Mansion assassins that Zhao Zhen was staggering and seemed to be about to fall. Master Xiang must have been worried about him, so he went down to support him."

Li Rongji's eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Master Xiang Tian has good intentions."

He Xuan sighed, "He has good intentions, but as a Heavenly Master appointed by the Western Shu imperial court, he should understand that the incantation rituals must not be violated.

He actually pushed Zhao Zhen away with force and might as well not have gone down to support him.

When Zhao Zhen cast the spell earlier, his body was also shaking.

After all, when you worship a straw man, the backlash is the most severe.”

Li Rongji couldn't help but shouted, "What is Master Xiang thinking? Why did he want to overthrow Zhao Zhen?"

Li Anmin asked: "Even if there was no chance to stop Tianshi Xiang from pushing Zhao Zhen down, why didn't he stop the fire from burning the Seven Arrows Book? That is a powerful treasure that can curse and kill immortals!"

He became more and more excited as he spoke, with more indignation on his face, “We, the Li family, have used all our strength to help you seize this treasure, hoping that it can deter the great demon.

Now that the Seven Arrows Book is gone, what should we do?"

Upon hearing this, Li Rongji also looked at He Xuan with a complaining look. He Xuan said calmly, "The Li family of Xishu did make great efforts to help Zhao Zhen bribe several judges of the underworld.

But the Seven Arrows Book came from our Great Qin, and it is a treasure of our Great Qin.

Using the Seven Arrows Book to help the Li family defend East Shu is a gesture of friendship, not a duty.

Moreover, the Seven Arrows Book was burned because your Heavenly Master from Western Shu violated the rituals, causing the candlestick to topple over. "

There was a fleeting look of embarrassment on Li Rongji's face.

He forced a smile and said, "We are not blaming anyone now. We are just wondering, shouldn't it be a matter of course to rescue the treasure? Even the adults in the Gongche Mansion would have such doubts."

Hearing Gongchefu, He Xuan's face darkened, "I was not on the deck at the time. When the explosion occurred and I rushed over, the Seven Arrows Book was already burning.

The flames were extremely evil, as if countless resentful souls were struggling, roaring, and laughing inside. It was very ominous. "

——That is a treasure that can curse and kill immortals. Even if it is ominous, you should fight for it!
Li Rongji was dissatisfied, but he had no right to blame the other party. After all, the accident was caused by Master Xiang Tian, ​​and it was he who sent Master Xiang Tian.

"Now that Zhao Zhen, the straw man, and the Seven Arrows Book have all been burned, does that mean Yu Fengxian has lifted the curse?"

He Xuan shook his head and said, "I don't know either. Let's wait and see what Yu Fengxian's condition is like tomorrow."

The moment Zhao Zhen died and the Seven Arrows Book was burned, Xiao Yu in the dream dimension immediately sensed something.

It was as if I had gotten rid of the shackles that had been on me for a long time, and I suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

"Strange, why is there no Three Pure Ones Exorcist Mantra falling from 'above' today? What is the demon cicada doing?"

She didn't have time to think about the reason.

She got rid of the shackles, and the rotten giant eye opposite her became more energetic, and its power to absorb souls became stronger.

Absorb a large amount of mental power "dust" from the small rotten giant eye.

Xiaoyu was a little panicked.

In the dream dimension, even if she used her magic eye technique with all her strength, she could not fight against the real giant rotten eye.

In the first confrontation, she gained a lot of benefits because of the unexpected intrusion of the demon cicada.

His Three Purities Exorcist Spells were like heavy punches, which caused the rotten giant eye to splatter with rotten flesh and sink into the abyss in a miserable state.

The second time, she opened the door to welcome the thief, attracting the giant rotten eye to come up from the abyss. It connected with her spirit, and they were cursed by the Seven Arrows Book together. She also used the Three Purities Exorcism Spell of the demon cicada.

As soon as the rotten giant eye reveals its breath, the evil cicadas in the blessed land of Guaizi Mountain will immediately chant spells to dispel its evil power.

Xiaoyu even heard other people's voices.

The evil cicada seemed to have found a group of Taoist priests to help it chant the Three Pure Ones spell to exorcise evil spirits.

There hasn't been a single accident in the past five days.

Today, everything is "completely over" for Zhao Zhen, but the Sanqing Exorcism Curse has still not been cast.

"Could it be that the demon cicada realized that I was using him to fight against the giant eye of decay? That shouldn't be the case. Even if the demon cicada knows how to enter dreams, he is not a magic eye. How can he accurately find my dream among the dreams of billions of sentient beings in the three realms?"

Looking at the giant rotten eye opposite, Xiaoyu's heart moved: Could it be this?

It knew that I was using its power to fight against the Seven Arrows. Just now, Zhao Zhen seemed to be completely "finished". Could it be that it was secretly doing something? Now it wants to use this opportunity to completely suck me dry?

But how did it stop Yaochan and the others from chanting the spell?
No matter how evil the cicada is, does it dare to cooperate with monsters from outside the domain?
Xiaoyu Demon Eye shook gently a few times, and the rotten demon eye state was cancelled, and it turned into the "Sword Fairy Yu Fengxian" holding the Qiao Shi Sword again.

"Dream Killer!"

When she found something was wrong, she acted decisively and cut off the connection between the "Yu Fengxian Dream" and the "Dream Woven by the Dream Demon" with one sword.

She would rather give up the part of her mental power that was taken away than hesitate and wait for the Three Purities Exorcist Spell of the Demon Cicada.

"Swoosh, whoosh, whoosh~~" One by one, intestinal worms popped out from the giant rotten eye like hooks, quickly building layer after layer of dream bridges, trying to forcibly connect her dream with the nightmare demon's dream.

"It was indeed a premeditated ambush!"

The sword in Xiaoyu's hand danced into a golden disc, quickly cutting off the dream bridges.

Her clever sword is not a fantasy from a dream, but a real sword spirit!
People can enter dreams, and the Qiao Shi sword follows her into the door.

After a while, Xiaoyu's hands were still calm, but she felt a little anxious in her heart.

She is not at a disadvantage now, but in the dream dimension, fighting with countless nightmares, she is destined to be the loser.

While she was anxious, she was also angry in her heart - angry at herself for being so arrogant and treating the Rotten Giant Eye as a wild beast that could only react instinctively.

Even nightmares have strong intelligence, so how could the "Mother Goddess" have no self-will?
"Mother, do you have to keep me?" Xiaoyu shouted at the giant rotten eye.

This was not the first time she called out "Mom".

After all, it calls itself "the original darkness" and the "Mother Goddess", so it is natural for her to call her "Mother".

As long as it has its own will, it will agree.

But until today, she still hasn't been able to activate the "Rotten Giant Eye Killing Method".

This is also the reason why Xiaoyu, a smart person, has always regarded the rotten giant eye as "the remains of a demon that only reacts instinctively."

The Great Destruction of Dad still has not been triggered.

——What's going on? Is it that the Rotten Giant Eye doesn't recognize me as its "daughter", or is it that the Great Destroyer can't activate the method of killing the monsters from outside the domain? No, the nightmare has already touched the Great Destroyer.

"Mother, mother, why don't you speak, don't you respond to your daughter? Are you a fool? I misjudged you, mother, you don't even have your own will.

You are not worthy of calling yourself "Mother Goddess", you are just a piece of dead rotten meat, rotten meat~~~"

The sword in Xiaoyu's hand flashed and he shouted continuously.

"Shut up!"

The rotten giant eye finally responded, it was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman, and there was not even any tone, only pure will.

"You are just a wisp of foul air from Pangu, not even an ant, how can you be worthy of being my child?
Turbid air, come here.

As a trivial food, let me eat you, come here quickly~~"
