Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 286: As if nothing happened

Views:

Suddenly, Su Yun felt something in his heart. He turned around and looked up. The Taoist third eye between his eyebrows looked upward. There was a huge argali on the bell tower, and there seemed to be a person standing next to the argali.

However, his Taoist Heavenly Eyes were indeed insufficient in terms of vision. He could not see the face of the person on the bell tower clearly, and could not even tell whether it was a man or a woman.

Su Yun's mind moved slightly, and he stepped into the mist, moving upwards continuously, his figure getting taller and taller.

A chuckle was heard from upstairs, and the man stepped back, but the argali stayed where it was.

Su Yun said calmly: "You are able to control the robbery ash and the argali, do you want to leave like this?"

The man said in a rough voice, laughing: "The key to Tongtian Pavilion is indeed worthy of its reputation. Yuan Shuo Tongtian Pavilion is just relying on the key to maintain its face. If it didn't have the key, this orthodoxy would have fallen into the hands of my Great Qin long ago!"

Su Yun climbed higher and higher until he reached the top of the building, with clouds and mist swirling under his feet. He chased after the man. Hearing this, his heart was slightly moved: "Could he (she) be the master of Tongtian Pavilion selected from overseas? Is he (she) doing this this time to test my ability and force me to reveal the key?"

The word "key" has a unique meaning in Tongtian Pavilion. It not only refers to the key to open the door, but also symbolizes the identity of the owner of Tongtian Pavilion.

Not only that, the treasure houses left by successive Pavilion Masters also require keys to open!

The key can also control the spiritual weapons of many pavilion masters. For example, the great holy spirit weapon Dust Curtain Sky can be controlled by the key.

Even the legendary "Bridge to Heaven" built by Tsutenkaku requires a key to open!

The weight of the wooden box was actually far beyond Su Yun’s imagination!

The argali on the bell tower suddenly moved and stood in front of Su Yun. The strength of this argali was even stronger, and its vitality was constantly turbulent, which was extremely shocking!

Just now, it was this argali that threw the holy bell, unleashing the power of the holy bell and forcing Zuo Songyan to retreat again and again!

The demonized argali was not something Su Yun could contend with. Even if he activated the Dust Curtain Sky, he was only trying to protect himself.

Su Yun was about to stop when suddenly a huge bronze bell flew from behind him and hit the demonized argali in mid-air, knocking the argali flying backwards!

Zuo Songyan followed closely behind the big bell, rushing over with a roar. Suddenly, stars began to fall from the sky behind him. He punched out and knocked the argali into the ground!

Su Yun breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly chased after the man.

He waved his hand casually, and the clouds were like quicksand, sneaking away in the mist.

The person's movements were strange, shuttling between the buildings in the clouds and mist. Even the dusty sky could not stop him (her) for a moment.

However, the man dodged everywhere, but was caught up by Su Yun. He suddenly stopped and a bright mirror stood up behind him.

Su Yun was shocked. Before the mirror could unleash its power, he could sense a terrifying holy power!

"The spiritual weapon of the original strong man!"

The wooden box in Su Yun's hand turned into a wooden sword without any explanation. At the same time, the dusty sky also turned into a big sword.

The power of two great holy spirit weapons exploded!

At this moment, both of them seemed to know that holding back would lead to death, and they each put to use what they had learned throughout their lives.

Su Yun controlled the sword and used the wooden sword in his hand to perform the Immortal Sword to Slay the Demon Dragon. At the same time, the big sword transformed from the dusty sky also performed the Immortal Sword to Slay the Demon Dragon!

Opposite him, the man activated the mirror behind him. A light appeared in the mirror, and a door was seen standing. In the center of the door was an eye. The eye suddenly opened, and a ray of light shot out!

"boom!"

The magical powers of the two men collided, and the greatsword transformed from the dusty sky only had time to perform the first half of a move before it was hit by the magical power shot out by the strange eye in the mirror, and the greatsword shattered with a loud noise!

Su Yun's blood surged and impacted his body. A huge force hit him and sent him flying backwards.

At the same time, the wooden sword transformed from the wooden box in his hand flew out, and the second half of the immortal sword's move to slay the demon dragon was performed.

The man didn't expect that he could actually use the second half of the move. He was caught off guard and immediately fled, going behind the mirror.

"laugh!"

The wooden sword still swept the man's back, and Su Yun heard a muffled groan from the man as he was being blown away. This muffled groan was no longer a rough sound, but rather had a feminine flavor.

Before he had time to think about it, another figure rushed over and supported him on the back. Su Yun suddenly felt a soft magical power surging, which removed the impact of the mirror.

The person who made the move was Xing Jiangmu, who looked white-haired and very old. After helping Su Yun to resolve the impact, he came to the mirror like a puff of smoke.

Su Yun was startled and rushed up quickly, mobilizing the dust curtain in the sky. He saw a big bell formed by the clouds in the thick fog.

The man was hiding behind the mirror. Seeing this, he raised his hand and pulled the huge mirror down to cover himself.

The yellow bell bombarded and landed on the mirror, but the man was already in the mirror and was not attacked by Su Yun's magical power.

Xing Jiangmu rushed to the front, but was helpless. He saw the mirror fly up and disappear in the thick fog.

Su Yun waved his hand, and the wooden sword flew back and turned into a wooden box.

At this time, a police whistle sounded in the city. Zuo Songyan rushed over and whispered, "Masters are coming from Yundu. Let's go!"

The three of them left in a hurry, and when they returned to Lanling Street, they saw the clouds dispersing and the sky in the east turned white.

The experience of this night was truly like a dream, which made Xing Jiangmu exclaim in disbelief.

"The ancient god and demon Bai Ze, Bai Ze's strange house, Tongtian Pavilion's book collection world, the tree of books, and Ming Yufei."

Xing Jiangmu returned to the embassy, walked around excitedly, and said with his fist: "There is also the reappearance of the fog from 200 years ago, and the demonic argali eating people. These things have never happened to me in the more than ten years as a junior historian! When I retire and return home, I will definitely write a book about my experiences during this period!"

"Don't write a book. Writing a book is a dead end."

Yingying flew out of Su Yun's spiritual world and said, "It's hard to even support yourself, and not everyone will like to read it. Even if someone does, there will be book monsters like me who will eat it up. Then it will no longer be your book, but my book."

Xing Jiangmu was dying, and had suffered a great blow, and seemed to have aged a little.

Yingying absorbed the contents of more than ten records of the book monster and found it difficult to digest them for a while. Su Yunxingling helped her organize the contents and she gradually felt better.

Before they knew it, it was daybreak and many argali chariots appeared on the streets. If it weren't for what Su Yun, Zuo Songyan and Xing Jiangmu experienced last night, it would be hard to imagine that it was this kind of creature that caused so much killing between two hundred and one hundred and seventy years ago, and countless people were devoured by them.

After breakfast, Zuo Songyan left alone and said, "I need to deal with the gains from Feiyun Valley as soon as possible. I also caught a demonized argali last night. I will give it to Doctor Dong to check first to see if it has any connection with the robbery monster."

Su Yun was surprised and happy: "Doctor Dong is here too?"

Zuo Songyan said: "Doctor Dong is a member of your Tongtian Pavilion. As a member of the Tongtian Pavilion, he must come to the competition for the leader of the pavilion at home and abroad. By the way, you should be careful of Concubine Ming Yu. Concubine Ming Yu knew that we went to Bai Ze's house last night."

Su Yun felt a chill in his heart.

Zuo Songyan left in a hurry.

Su Yun and Yingying sorted out the records of book monsters in the book collecting world and selected useful information from them.

When the sun was high in the sky, there was a knock on the door outside the Yuan Shuo Embassy.

Xing Jiangmu went out to open the door, only to see Ming Yufei coming alone, still dressed the same as yesterday, with a blue dress, blue hair, two phoenix hairpins and silver string necklaces. When she saw Xing Jiangmu, she smiled, her eyes curved into crescents: "Thank you, Grandpa! Is your Master Su here?"

Su Yun was sitting on the second-floor balcony sorting out documents with Yingying. Hearing this, she stuck her head out and waved to her. Seeing this, Concubine Ming Yu hurriedly picked up her skirt and quickly went upstairs.

Xing Jiangmu's head was as big as a bucket, thinking: "The Holy Emperor's concubine is so careless, staying in the same room with Su Shaoshi, if someone sees it... But it seems that Concubine Mingyu never cares about this, otherwise she wouldn't be called the crazy concubine. But it's not good for a single man and a single woman to stay in the same room..."

He shuddered and walked upstairs: "I'll go over there too, so we won't be alone in the same room."

When we got to the second floor, we saw Concubine Ming Yu, Su Yun and Yingying sitting at the table. Some little goblins with teapots, vases and other things were busy serving the three of them.

"Before the Argali Rebellion, some very interesting things happened."

Su Yun stole a glance at Ming Yufei's buttocks, unable to tell if she was injured, so he suppressed his strange thoughts and told Ming Yufei about his discovery, saying, "Before the Argali Rebellion, members of the overseas Tongtian Pavilion discovered the wonderful uses of Jiehui, using Jiehui for lighting, smelting, and even cultivation. I saw a study by a Tongtian Pavilion member, who said that when Daqin was at its craziest, there were even more than ten Jiehui monster riots in the country every day."

Mingyu Fei is as her name suggests. Her skin is as white as jade when exposed to the sun. Her eyes are pure and clear. She tilted her head and said, "I have also seen some research. At that time, some people in Tongtian Pavilion suspected that the argali was contaminated by the robbery ash, so it became violent and cannibalistic. However, Tongtian Pavilion later conducted some experiments and found no abnormalities in the argali after contacting the robbery ash..."

Su Yun listened carefully to her voice, compared it to the person who attacked them last night, and frowned slightly: "The voice is wrong. Could it be that she was not the one who attacked us last night? If I want to verify it, there is another way, that is, I stab that person in the buttocks. I just need to check if there is a wound on her buttocks..."

"There's something unusual!"

Yingying suddenly said, "I found in a volume of Gewuzhi that the bodies of the crazy man-eating argali had traces of robbery ash in their bodies, which means that these argali must have eaten robbery ash before."

She found these pictures and texts and showed them to the two of them.

Concubine Ming Yu came closer to take a look, and Su Yun also came over to take a closer look, and his left hand quietly touched the girl's buttocks.

Concubine Ming Yu screamed, turned her head to look at him, her face flushed, her eyes as clear as autumn water, and she said nothing.

Su Yun calmly withdrew his left hand, as if nothing had happened, thinking to himself: "It's not her, there is no wound on her butt. My sword was very sharp. When I was stabbed in the butt by the immortal sword, I had to lie down for many days before I recovered. If it was her, she would definitely scream out in pain when I pinched her butt, instead of screaming like she did just now..."

Behind the two of them, Xing Jiangmu stared at the scene blankly, his face pale.
