"No matter what, I'm glad you're okay." Because of the presence of Blue Dragon, Tian Yang couldn't reveal Su Lie's identity, nor could he call him 'Dad', so he could only simplify the title.
Su Lie nodded, took out the key and said, "If you are all well rested, then let's go back."
Naturally, no one wanted to stay in such a haunted place for long, and now that Su Lie was back with the key in his hand, it was time to leave the tomb.
"Let's go back. It's time for us to return." Blue Dragon said steadily.
So they left the house and returned in the direction they had come.
This walk took almost a day.
When night was about to come, they found an underground palace to rest. After entering the palace, Tianyang carefully checked the hall. Fortunately, there were no strange mirrors this time.
Su Lie looked at him strangely and said, "Are you nervous? What are you nervous about?"
"When we came down, we stayed overnight in a palace. The palace was full of mirrors. At night, the Abyss Walker appeared and awakened some things in the mirror. They wanted to rush out of the mirror and enter reality."
Tianyang briefly recounted what had happened to him and his group, but Lanlong and the others didn't seem interested and did not join in the discussion.
Su Lie said in amazement: "That's true. I've been here for so long, and I haven't encountered the situation you described."
Night falls.
The three colonels of Storm sat in a circle. Xue Yan seemed very tired and rested alone in a corner. Tian Yang and Su Lie occupied a space deep in the hall.
Su Lie recounted the battle between himself and Fang Li, and concluded: "That guy has the ability to control space and distance. If his power had not been weakened, it would have been unknown whether I could have held on until he collapsed first."
"That should be a kind of essence." Tian Yang said thoughtfully, "Controlling the essence of the universe is the greatest characteristic of EsGod."
Su Lie's eyes flashed with surprise: "You even know about this kind of thing."
Tian Yang nodded gently, looked at Su Lie and said, "You haven't forgotten what you promised me, right?"
He was referring to the return.
Su Lie snorted softly through the mask: "Do I look like such a dishonest person? I will keep my promise to you, don't worry."
"That's good. After we go back, I'll take you to see mom first." Tianyang began to look forward to the days after leaving the tomb. He let his thoughts wander and made plans. "Then, let's leave Skyfort and go on a long journey together."
"but... "
Thinking of Xun and his other friends, Tianyang's eyes dimmed: "I have to say goodbye to my friends first. I hope they won't blame me."
Su Lie's eyes softened: "They won't do that anymore."
"By the way, we can also explore other worlds together. Maybe we can find more novel things."
"Would you like to go with me?"
Tianyang nodded and said, "I would like to..."
Suddenly, he stopped.
He almost said the words 'I do'.
Although he did not think there was anything wrong with saying these three words now, after all Fang Li had fallen into eternal sleep again, he still did not dare to take the risk, fearing that it might cause some danger.
Su Lieqi asked, "What's wrong?"
"nothing."
Tianyang said it in a different way: "You are right, we can explore together and learn about other inverse realms together."
Su Lie frowned slightly, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes: "You haven't answered my question just now."
"What?" Tianyang looked at his father blankly.
Su Lie said softly: "You haven't answered me yet, are you willing to explore the Reverse Realm with me?"
"I... "
wrong!
Why did he insist that I answer that question
Tianyang felt a sense of alarm and looked at his father, feeling that he had become a stranger.
He coughed dryly and said, "Dad, you've been wearing that mask for several days. Isn't it stuffy? Anyway, they are far away and can't see you. Why don't you take off the mask first?"
Su Lie did not take any action, but just emphasized: "I want to hear your answer to the question just now first."
Tian Yang smiled and said, "I'll answer you if you pick it."
"It's a deal." Su Lie grabbed the mask and took it off. Behind the mask was the face of a middle-aged man.
He is somewhat similar to Tianyang, but very clean, with no stubble and a smooth chin.
He continued, "Now it's your turn. Answer the question I asked you earlier, will you?"
Tianyang stood up, looked thoughtful, and paced back and forth nearby.
When he stopped, he turned his back to Su Lie and shook his head: "I don't want to."
"Because you are not him!"
Tianyang turned around suddenly, and a dark lightning burst out in his arms. The thunder submerged Su Lie like a tide, and the whole hall was filled with deafening thunder.
After the thunder, Su Lie disappeared, and the surrounding scenery also became blurry.
A moment of trance.
When Tianyang woke up, he found himself still in the house that seemed to be prepared for giants, still sitting on the huge chopping board that could be used as a bed.
Was I just dreaming
He looked around and saw Lan Long and his companions either leaning or sitting, all with their eyes closed, as if they were asleep.
Tianyang did not dare to delay and immediately jumped off the chopping board and shook or patted them to wake them up.
Lan Long and the others looked at him in confusion: "Tian Yang, what's wrong?"
"I just had a dream."
Tian Yang briefly recounted what happened in his dream, and said: "Fang Li must be able to influence us through some means. He can sneak into our dreams."
"If we say 'I do' in our dreams, we will probably end up like him."
The three colonels gasped.
Colonel Danqing didn't know what he was thinking about, and his face flushed slightly: "Just now I dreamed of a very important person, and he did ask me if I was willing to agree to something."
"I was about to say yes when I was woken up. Now that I think about it, it was a close call."
Before he finished speaking, someone in the house suddenly shouted, "I do!"
A chill suddenly crept up Tianyang's back.
This is Xue Yan’s voice!
He turned his head and saw Xue Yan had stood up from the ice chair she had made and was looking at her hands, as if she was getting familiar with her body.
Tian Yang suddenly felt something was wrong, and then he saw Xue Yan looking towards them: "Hello."
"Although it's a woman's body, it's relatively fragile, but fortunately I'm still a Level 6 Ascendant. As a skin bag, it can be considered to be barely passable."
Tianyang and the others couldn't help but gasp.
In the end, Fang Li succeeded!
The alien god occupying Xue Yan's body scanned Tian Yang with his heterochromatic eyes: "Why, do you want to save her?"
"That's not impossible. As long as you say those three words, I will return this woman's body to her."
Tianyang was stunned.
Why is Fang Li so obsessed with occupying my body
If we only look at the rank upgrade, Xue Yan clearly has an advantage over me.
It has already occupied a Level 6 Elemental Heart, so there is no need for it to occupy my body again. Unless...
With Black Thunder in hand, thunder is spewing out.
Tianyang released a thunderstorm in the direction of Xueyan. The dark lightning swept through, turning the area into charcoal.
Xue Yan disappeared where he was.
As a result, the surrounding scenery became blurry.
It’s still a dream!
A dream within a dream
After Tianyang was in a trance for a while, he found himself in a shed in the lower city of Qingtian Castle.
There was a sound of a door opening behind me, and a familiar voice said, "When did you come back?"
"You didn't even inform me in advance when you came back so I could buy groceries and cook."
Tianyang's whole body was shocked.
This is the voice he has been hearing for seventeen years, the voice he thought he would never hear again, the voice of his mother Nan Fei.
Tianyang gritted his teeth, anger rising in his heart, but he didn't dare to turn around.
Then I heard that familiar voice say, "How about we go out to eat. I know a good restaurant, how about that, are you willing?"
"Shut up!"
Tianyang lifted up Heiting: "You are not allowed to speak with her voice!"
boom!
The lower city was flooded with black lightning.
Sizzle...
The sound of electricity flowing was still heard in the air. Tianyang looked around and found himself in an extremely deep and open space.
He stepped on the gray ground, which stretched out in all directions with no end in sight.
In this world, he couldn't see anything above the horizon, not even the sky, there was not a single cloud in it.
desolate.
Empty.
"Welcome to my dream."
Tianyang turned around suddenly and saw a blurry figure. It had a vague human appearance, but its facial features and other parts were unclear like paste.
"Fang Li?"
Tianyang asked uncertainly.
The blurry figure spread his hands and said, "It's me."
"You have probably realized that there is some kind of connection between you and me." The figure who called himself Fang Li seemed to be in no hurry to act and took a few leisurely steps.
Then it was submerged by a black thunder.
But the next second, it appeared from somewhere else and said helplessly: "Don't be so irritable, at least let me finish what I'm saying, this is the most basic courtesy, isn't it?"
Tian Yang also knew that in this dream, it seemed difficult for him to hurt it, so he could only remain alert: "How did you and I become connected?"
Fang Li nodded. His expression could not be seen through his blurry face, but Tianyang felt that he was smiling.
"Remember those bodies?"
"Those corpses are not just tools to attack you. They have another important purpose. They are a medium."
"When you attack them, the greater the force you use, the more you kill. Then, the deeper the connection between us will be."
"And you killed them all in one go. It was helpless. I originally wanted to connect with other people so that I would have more skins to choose from."
"But now, I can only get in touch with you."
Tianyang exhaled softly: "Is that so? That's great."
"good?"
Fang Li's blurry figure laughed loudly: "Hey, don't take it too easy. You are in my dream now. No matter what kind of power you have in reality, it won't work here."
"I guess you've probably discovered that your methods, which are similar to ours, don't work on me here."
