After a moment of silence, Li Guijiao walked over stiffly, sat in front of Luo Xue, picked up the wine bowl and drank it all.
"Don't rush to pack up. I know what you are doing in the crypt." Luo Xue said. She raised her hand and filled Li Guijiao's cup again. "Do you want to escape?"
Li Guijiao's expression froze for a moment, then she said in a tearful tone,
"Sir, how do you know all this?"
That's right, after learning that Luo Xue already knew about the existence of the crypt, the evil ghost in the crypt immediately began to pack up his belongings and prepare to escape.
She had already made dozens of plans for escape, but she was worried that one day even the underground would not be safe.
But now... the other party easily saw through everything about her. Li Guijiao felt her hands and feet were cold in the hot summer, and she was shivering all over. She could only admit defeat and beg for mercy.
"Shh, because I'm always watching you."
Luo Xue put her finger on her lips and smiled mysteriously.
The evil ghost in the crypt immediately began to search the entire crypt, trying to find out how the mysterious woman was spying.
"Let me guess again?" Luo Xue crossed her hands, supported her chin, narrowed her eyes, and leaned close to Li Guijiao and whispered, "You are not from this world, right
"You come from... a cage, a place called the Four Regions of Kyushu."
After hearing this, Li Guijiao calmed down a little.
Even her crypt is known, so it's not surprising to know her origins.
"What do you want me to do?" Li Guijiao took a deep breath and said, "I'm just a Nascent Soul cultivator. I'm afraid... I'm of no use to you."
At the same time, her consciousness was secretly transmitted to the "Luoxue", asking the spirit of the white tiger to approach in this direction.
If all else fails, we have no choice but to resort to violence.
Li Guijiao has never liked violence, she just wanted to conduct her research on formations and puppets peacefully, and find a way to return to the four regions of Kyushu.
"Very useful. At least you are...very useful to me."
Luo Xue reached out and tried to lift Li Guijiao's chin.
The embarrassing thing is that she is just a soul now, but she passed through directly.
“… … .”
Even Li Guijiao could see Luo Xue's embarrassment. She touched her chin and it seemed like just a breeze.
"Miss Gui Jiao, what choice should you make?" Luo Xue calmly took her hand back, "Do you want to continue to escape, or..."
However, what Luo Xue did not expect was that after hearing these words, Li Guijiao's expression froze.
She looked straight at Luo Xue, making Luo Xue feel a little uncomfortable.
"What, what happened?"
Luo Xue's eyes couldn't help but evade.
After all, she was teasing Senior Sister Li, so she had to admit that she felt a little guilty.
"Is that you..."
Li Guijiao suddenly spoke softly, tears flashing in her eyes, and her expression trembled uncontrollably.
"I... "
"Junior sister," Li Guijiao stood up, the corners of her mouth moving up and down, it was unclear whether her expression was sad or happy. This was the first time Luo Xue saw such an expression on Li Guijiao's face, "Are you here..."
"I... I'm not your junior sister or anything..."
Luo Xue wanted to explain herself, but saw Li Guijiao rushing towards her.
Although she couldn't hug her directly, she still held Luo Xue tightly.
"I've only told one person my real name." Li Guijiao sobbed, her voice becoming unclear, "That's you... Junior Sister Luo Xue.
"I miss you so much, I really miss you..."
Luo Xue was silent for a while, and the playful and joyful smile on the corner of her mouth softened a little.
Her soul embraced Li Guijiao in return and whispered,
"I miss you too, a lot."
Chapter 203: Junior Sister, you died so tragically!
“No matter what experiences lie ahead, no matter how uncertain the future may be, I will keep moving forward, because... I want to find my way home and the people I miss.”
For more than a thousand years, Li Guijiao has never given up looking for the traces of the Nine Provinces and the Four Regions, even if they are people like her who accidentally entered the ancient demon land, or even people from the Demon Abyss.
Until the end, she only dared to hope to see the creatures, artifacts, or even spiritual power bubbles from the four regions of Kyushu...
But nothing was found.
Occasionally, great monsters exiled from the ancient monster land would enter the Nine Provinces and Four Regions, namely members of the monster tribes in the southern wilderness, but in the vast world, there is really no sign of the existence of the Nine Provinces and Four Regions.
Li Guijiao was cautious by nature and knew that this secret concerned her safety, so she never revealed it directly.
In fact, after searching for so many years, she grew from a little girl to a young woman, and then to an old woman in a certain sense, but she couldn't get even the slightest clue. Li Guijiao had almost given up.
But what she never expected was... by chance, she met her junior sister again.
"Junior Sister..."
Li Guijiao stood on tiptoe - at least her puppet still looked like a little girl. She looked at Luo Xue and said tearfully,
"You seem to have grown up... You've become very different, even your gray hair is gone..."
You know, in order to get the secret hidden in Luo Xue's naturally white hair, she even created the "Luo Xue" and tried to find the truth through this appearance.
But I didn’t expect that when my junior sister grew up, the white hair was gone.
What's worse is... Li Guijiao can sense that although Luo Xue now looks like a real person, she has actually become a wandering ghost.
Could it be that Junior Sister is actually dead
Thinking of this, tears welled up in Li Guijiao's eyes.
"Ahem, this situation is quite complicated, and I really can't finish explaining it in a short time."
Luo Xue coughed lightly a few times. She really couldn't explain the situation of the Holy Soul Body clearly in a short period of time.
"Don't worry, I will make the best puppet for you," Li Guijiao clenched her fists with a firm expression, "Junior sister, I will revive you! I even resurrected the spirit of the white tiger! Although her body is still alive..."
"Oh, I knew you had a way... Wait, I'm not dead, I'm really not dead!" Luo Xue immediately realized that Li Guijiao had misunderstood. After all, she was using Nangong's soul body. "I just borrowed the soul body of an adult to carry consciousness temporarily."
"Really? This gentleman... is Ancestor Nangong?"
Li Guijiao wiped away the puppet's tears. After the excitement of the reunion, she calmed down a little.
Only then did she realize that the power contained in Luo Xue's current soul was the immortal will that had caused her formation runes to mutate before.
So far, only the Nangong clan has mastered the Immortal Will. Although this is a secret that even the clan members rarely know, Li Guijiao, with the White Tiger Spirit by her side, naturally knows these ancient secrets well.
"Well, the last trace of Nangong's consciousness is still sleeping in her soul. Don't worry, she is a very good ancestor. The Nine Provinces and Four Regions are her small world." Luo Xue chuckled and said, "Speaking of which, we are actually her children - children born in her world."
Li Guijiao's expression immediately became solemn. After so many years of searching, she gradually realized the significance of the existence of the Four Regions of Jiuzhou.
However, the entire Kyushu and Four Regions is just her small world... Isn't the strength of this adult too terrifying
"By the way, she didn't have any unfortunate old age, did she?"
A rather offensive thought suddenly occurred to Li Guijiao, and she said it out loud while shrinking her head.
This level of existence is dangerous even if it is not clear at all...
There are many villains in the novels, and they are all like this!
Even after coming to the Great Thousand World, Li Guijiao still couldn't change her habit of learning from the storybooks, which led to her overestimating the fighting power of this world at the beginning...
To put it in a metaphor, Li Guijiao once thought that the Great Qin Immortal Emperor was an emperor-level existence, but in fact he was still approaching the level of the Great Sage.
"... To be precise, she passed away before she reached old age." Luo Xue touched her nose, feeling as if she was saying something bad in front of someone.
However, given Nangong's personality, he probably won't care too much.
She is an elder who is embarrassed to show off, but she is actually very easy to talk to.
"So, how's your body, little apprentice sister?" Li Guijiao asked curiously, "I remember you should have white hair..."
Why is Senior Sister Li so obsessed with white hair
Luo Xue twitched her lips and said, "This is more complicated... It seems to be gone. Anyway, I didn't find it. Oh, there is another one, placed in a coffin, sinking to the bottom of the Withered Sea."
Her withered body that has been withering for thousands of years is still silent until now, and no one knows what changes will occur after it is combined with her current eternal and immortal soul.
It is still unknown whether the two will be destroyed or harmoniously become an existence that truly controls the will of immortality and withering.
"You said you're not dead, you're lying... Wuwu little junior sister... I will definitely save you..."
Li Guijiao started crying again. It was difficult for her to control her emotions when she saw a familiar figure again after many years.
"He is indeed not dead. Hey, everyone says the situation is very complicated."
Luo Xue was quite helpless. She couldn't even wipe away Li Guijiao's tears. She could only wave the soul's hand and change the subject.
"How about you? How have you been these days? I heard that you are doing well in the world."
"Wow... Still, it's okay..."
Li Guijiao wiped her tears again. She was not such a crybaby, but she couldn't help it.
"How many years have you been here?" Seeing this, Luo Xue continued the topic, "I haven't looked into it in detail, but it should be several decades, right?"
Thinking back to that year, she entered a dream again, and in a trance, twelve years had passed.
Now I am in a trance again, but it is another vicissitudes of life. I don’t know how many decades have passed...
"The 1,365th year, the 203rd day," Li Guijiao whispered, "If I don't go home, I will have forgotten... what the four regions of the Nine Provinces are like, what the Juexiao Sect is like, what my senior brothers and sisters, my master and uncle are like."
The only one who hasn't been forgotten is Luo Xue.
This was the only motivation that kept her going throughout her long years.
"A thousand years have passed?"
Luo Xue's eyes flickered slightly and she sighed.
Putting aside the sense of time and space disorientation she felt when passing through the dream, it had actually been less than a year since she and Li Guijiao separated.
But Li Guijiao has lived alone in this strange world for thousands of years...
Luo Xue calmed down and asked,
"By the way, Senior Sister, how did you come to the Ancient Demon Land? Haven't you found a way to go back yet?"
"I didn't find it. I forgot how I got here." Li Guijiao scratched the back of his head in distress and said, "I just remember that after I separated from you, I changed direction and walked... I passed out while walking.
"When I woke up, I was already in the wilderness."
"... I see."
Luo Xue nodded thoughtfully, which means that Feng Zun is still guarding the gates of the four regions of Jiuzhou, and has not allowed the human race to leave this home that is both a cage and a cradle.
Li Guijiao can only be regarded as a lucky person. She accidentally came to the ancient demon land and couldn't go back...
I don’t know whether to say that she is unlucky or lucky. She accomplished so easily what so many powerful gods could not achieve.
"What about you, Junior Sister? What happened to you later?"
Li Guijiao looked at Luo Xue hopefully, wanting to get more information about the four regions of Jiuzhou from her.
She missed the life in the sect, even though her master always forced her to go out and wanted her to stop hiding...
But compared to the monsters in the wilderness and the cultivators of the Immortal Dynasty, everyone in the sect is a very good person.
Li Guijiao's innate magical power can see through the essence of the soul. She rebuilt the underground cave after wandering for a period of time. This period of time brought a great shock to her young mind.
As a direct result, she has not left the dungeon for at least a thousand years until now, and can only walk using a puppet.
"What happened... Actually, I don't know much, because after you and I left, I went to the blood sea deep in the Demon Abyss, and then... I have been sleeping until recently."
Luo Xue smiled bitterly and said, "In short, I may know a little more about the truth of the four regions of Kyushu than you do. I can only say that the current situation has been caused... I am helpless."
It’s not that she didn’t want to tell Li Guijiao about the post-apocalyptic world, it’s just that it would take too long to finish talking about it.
Besides, even the matters concerning the four regions of Kyushu and the ancient demon land have not been dealt with yet, and the connection between the post-apocalyptic world and the falling of the immortal boat that she saw in the Holy Soul consciousness is even more unclear.
"It's okay, we'll talk slowly when you get to my crypt!" Li Guijiao looked very happy. "By the way, how about I lend you the Luo Xue? I just asked the White Tiger Spirit to bring it here. It's a puppet that looks similar to you when you were a child!"
