Although the water on the ground of the water prison is not deep, the mermaid statue still needs to be lifted by the base to emerge from the water.
The direction Ren Tianqing was retreating was towards the base of the statue. At her current speed, if she hit the base, she would be unconscious even if she would not be killed on the spot. But Ren Tianqing was like a hedgehog whose feet were tied. He couldn't use any of his abilities in the air and could only wait for his head to be hit and his blood would bleed.
The moment Ren Tianqing was dragged by the blond hair and was about to hit the base of the statue, two sounds of metal breaking through the wind suddenly came from the air.
The next moment, the blond hair entangled with Ren Tianqing's feet was cut off by a dagger coming from the air.
The moment her taut long hair flew to both sides, Ren Tianqing used the force from her long hair to roll twice in the water before standing up. Another section of the blond hair was slapped hard on the statue's face. The head of the mermaid statue seemed unable to withstand the force of the blond hair's rebound and was knocked to the ground.
The blond hair that fell into the water was like the tentacles of a jellyfish. Li Xiaomao suddenly appeared in the water prison and reached out to grab the blond hair in the water. The moment she lifted up the broken hair, she didn't know what technique she used. The hair ball in her hand suddenly burst into flames and burned into a fireball in Li Xiaomao's hand in the blink of an eye.
Ren Tianqing was also helped up by Lu Xinyao who came from behind. After the latter nodded to Lu Xinyao, he walked to Li Xiaomao and asked, "What is that?"
"It's a kind of creature, it should be classified as a Gu insect, right?" Although Li Xiaomao was talking to Ren Tianqing, his eyes kept staring at the ball of fire in his hand, as if he was afraid that if he let go, the ball would burn into a raging fire. The hair will escape from her hands.
After a while, the ball of hair was reduced to a ball of fire the size of a walnut. Li Xiaomao seemed to be extremely nervous. Her left hand that was hanging by her side clenched into a fist. The ring straightened instantly and turned into a silver needle the size of a toothpick.
Li Xiaomao held the silver needle between two fingers and looked at the flame in her hand. She relaxed a little until the flame in her hand gradually extinguished.
Just when Li Xiaomao was about to shake off the ashes on his hands, Ren Tianqing suddenly took action and stretched out two fingers from Li Xiaomao's back to point at the acupoints on the opponent's back.
Before Ren Tianqing's fingertips touched Li Xiaomao's clothes, the latter floated two feet away like a ghost, turned around and slapped the opponent with his palm.
Ren Tianqing turned his fingers into palms and collided with Li Xiaomao. The strong energy flew up and down, and the aftermath of the strong energy pushed the water between the two of them open a gap of more than three feet. After that, the two of them went to different places. The direction goes backwards.
After the two people each took five steps back, they stood up and attacked each other at the same time. The images of their palms were like fireworks flying in the sky, covering the air in an instant. Their figures were completely covered by the shadows of their palms, and water accumulated on the ground. Waves of rain surged around the two of them, filling the long sky like a curtain of rain.
The two people's movements were already at their peak, and there was no warning before they started. Lu Xinyao, who was standing far away, didn't react until the two of them were fighting together: "What are you doing? Stop, stop... Stop fighting and calm down."
Lu Xinyao was so anxious that he was running around in circles, but he didn't dare to rush into the battle between the two. Ren Tianqing and Li Xiaomao didn't seem to hear Lu Xinyao's dissuasion. Their men moved faster and faster, and all the water on the ground was lifted into the air by the two, almost blocking Lu Xinyao's entire sight.
Lu Xinyao retreated continuously under the shock of the other party's energy, until she retreated to the edge of the dungeon. There was a loud bang of palm collision in the rain curtain, and the water that was caught in the air flew into the air, just like a heavy rain falling to the ground.
When the figures of Ren Tianqing and Li Xiaomao appeared in front of Lu Xinyao again, Li Xiaomao's ring turned into a silver needle and was already pressed against Ren Tianqing's throat. One of Ren Tianqing's palms was hanging a few inches away from Li Xiaomao's dantian. .
Ren Tianqing lost, losing at a distance of no more than two inches. Without that silver needle, the two would still be tied.
"You... don't be impulsive!" Lu Xinyao turned pale with fright: "Is there any misunderstanding between you two? Please calm down!"
Li Xiaomao first let go of the silver needle and stepped back: "I want to talk to you."
Ren Tianqing undressed and took a few steps back: "You say it first!"
Li Mao Mao said: "Why did you attack me?"
Ren Tianqing raised his hand and swept away the pile of clothes on the corner. A big fish with blue scales jumped out from the clothes and dived into the water and disappeared. However, in the remaining pile of clothes, a flaming red mark was revealed.
Ren Tianqing pointed to the mark that looked like fire but not fire, and looked like a fox but not a fox and said, "Do you have the same mark on your left shoulder?"
"You're right! This is the Heart Moon Fox. It's also Yinghuo." Li Xiaomao gently took off her coat to reveal her snow-white shoulders. Sure enough, there was the same tattoo on it, but the Heart Moon Fox on her shoulder The fox appeared more agile, and the red starlight in the fox's arms could be clearly seen.
Ren Tianqing stared at Li Xiaomao and said, "Don't you have any explanation for this?"
Li Xiaomao was silent for a few seconds before saying: "There is another Yinghuo in the dark castle."
Ren Tianqing's eyes suddenly widened and he said, "What did you say? Your master is in the castle?"
"No!" Li Xiaomao shook his head and said, "Not my master. If you believe me, you can come closer and take a closer look at my tattoo."
Ren Tianqing walked to Li Xiaomao suspiciously and tentatively looked at her Yinghuo tattoo. Sure enough, she found a traditional Chinese character "seventeen" in the center of the tattoo.
When Ren Tianqing raised his head in confusion, Li Xiaomao also said: "The seventeen characters represent that I am the seventeenth generation of Yinghuo. Only the true descendants of Yinghuo have numerical marks. You can take a look again, that mark."
Ren Tianqing turned around and looked at the mark on her clothes. The Xinyue Fox was hugging only a ball of fire. Ren Tianqing then stood up: "What's going on?"
Li Xiaomao said: "Yinghuo cannot accept more than two disciples, but there is only one person who can inherit the name of Yinghuo. Therefore, one of the disciples must be eliminated. That person will only die, but Yinghuo's secret technique is not allowed to leak out."
Li Xiaomao paused here and said: "The fourth generation Yinghuo once accepted a pair of twin sisters as his disciples. The sisters were so talented that no one could match them. The fourth generation Yinghuo himself could not make a choice. Just when she When hesitating, the sisters stole the secret book and fled far away."
"The fourth generation Yinghuo chased each other for a long time before returning to the master. Since then, she has set the rules for the order of tattoos for each generation. If you don't see the generation, you won't be Yinghuo."
When Li Xiaomao said this, he looked at Ren Tianqing with a serious expression: "Yinghuo, I have always known that there is another sect like ours in the world. We call it Yaoxing."
Ren Tianqing suddenly looked at the mark on the ground: "You mean, there is a demon star in the Dark Castle?"
Li Xiaomao took a deep breath and said, "If you are willing to believe me, I will tell you that it is indeed the case."
Li Xiaomao continued: "Actually, I also want to know, when did you start doubting me?"
"Start from the church!" Ren Tianqing thought for a while and then said: "The person who doubts you is not me, but Wang Huan. Wang Huan, quietly remind me and let me pay attention to you. I don't know when he started doubting you. However, I believe that he will not give me hints for no reason."
Li Xiaomao nodded and said: "I see. No wonder Wang Huan left with peace of mind after entering the tunnel. He has always been confident! No wonder the master has always told me to beware of the divine eyes and ghost pupils. Wang Huan is a master of the secret technique of ghost pupils. Heir, he can see through my 'flying disasters'"
Li Xiaomao muttered to himself for a while, and then suddenly said: "That's not right. He can't see through the 'flying disaster', he is just doubting it, just like I am doubting the existence of the demon star."
Li Xiaomao said: "I have been suspecting that there is a demon star in the dark castle since Demon Allen appeared. But I have no evidence. Now it seems that Allen is the demon star."
Ren Tianqing's eyes suddenly shrank: "Can't you see the secret technique of your master?"
"I can't tell!" Li Xiaomao shook his head and said: "There are only seven levels of Yinghuo's secret technique handed down from the master, and the remaining three levels are in the hands of Yao Xing. At first, the fourth generation of Yinghuo had not had time to teach the last three levels of secret technique to his disciples. The oil has run out and the lamp has dried up, and he has passed away."
"Before his death, the fourth generation Yinghuo once said that the last 30% of the secret method must be passed down by Yinghuo personally. Without the personal blessing of the previous generation Yinghuo, more than 90% of the people who practice according to the secret book will go crazy. But..."
Li Xiaomao changed the subject and said: "However, there is no shortage of amazing and talented people in the world. Some people can still understand the essence of secret arts without being taught. The demon stars who defected back then may occupy that level. Chance."
"The fourth generation Yinghuo was still worried about this matter before he died. Unfortunately, the descendants of our sect will never have the chance to recover the secret technique."
Li Xiaomao said: "I have always suspected that Allen is the demon star. But I don't have any evidence. It wasn't until I saw Yinghuo's mark that I concluded that it was the demon star."
Ren Tianqing looked at Li Xiaomao and said, "We were all entangled in black hair just now, how did you escape?"
Li Xiaomao asked with a half-smile, "Then how did you escape?"
"I..." Ren Tianqing could not help but be speechless for a moment. Although she was unconscious at the time, she was carrying something that could save her life. She couldn't reveal that thing to the public, or even mention it casually to others.
Li Xiaomao smiled and said: "We all have secrets. We also all have ways to save our lives, so I don't ask you about your secrets, I only ask if you believe me."
Ren Tianqing took a deep breath and said: "I want to ask what happened in the church. I mean the death of Arthur and the others, and the contract signed by Allen and Wang Huan."
