At this time, the girl also saw Zhang Xiaofan and the unconscious Lu Xueqi who was lying next to him, she obviously didn't expect that there would be living people in this Necromancer Abyss, her expression changed, she was also surprised.
Immediately, she saw Zhang Xiaofan's face clearly, was stunned for a moment, a trace of surprise flashed across her face, and then she smiled.
"Where do we never meet again in life!" She walked over gracefully in the darkness like a beautiful and blooming lily.
Zhang Xiaofan stood up, intentionally or unintentionally standing in front of Lu Xueqi, after all, it would not be ordinary people who come to this Necromancer Abyss haunted by ghosts and monsters.
As the girl approached, Zhang Xiaofan saw clearly that on her right finger, there was a small white flower, which emitted a faint white light, illuminating the land near the girl, and he didn't know what kind of alien it was .
But Zhang Xiaofan has no time to take care of this flower now, although facing this strange woman, he still has some vigilance in his heart, but no matter what, seeing her in this dark and lonely Necromancer Abyss, he immediately feels a little more close.
"Hello." Zhang Xiaofan wanted to say some polite greetings, but only these two words remained after he uttered them.
The girl glanced at him, smiled and said: "Isn't this Zhang Xiaofan and Zhang Shaoxia from Qingyun Mountain? Why did you come to this spooky place? This is not where you should come."
Zhang Xiaofan was startled, said: "How do you know I'm under Qing Yun's sect?"
The girl smiled and didn't answer.
Zhang Xiaofan frowned, he felt that this girl is not simple, he was thinking about it, but he heard the girl chuckle lightly, and said: "May I ask Zhang Shaoxia, how long have you been here, have you found the 'Dripping Blood Cave'?"
Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, then said: "What blood hole?"
The girl snorted, and the smile on her face gradually faded, but she still said calmly: "Young man Zhang is really good at pretending to be confused, you so-called upright people, if it wasn't for the things in the dripping blood hole, how could you come to this dark and dirty place?" Come?"
Zhang Xiaofan was confused by what she said, but he vaguely understood that there is a blood-dripping hole here, there may be something important in the hole, but before he went down the mountain, he had never heard of it from his master or the head master, but what he was thinking at the moment But it was not these, but heard the meaning of the girl's words, said in a deep voice: "You say that our righteous way is hypocritical, then who are you?"
The girl flicked her water-green clothes, and the flower between her fingers followed her jade-like hand to draw an arc in the air, and the white light left a trace in the air, as if it was also nostalgic for this darkness, and remained for a long time , and then slowly dissipated.
"Aren't I the demon girl you hate so much?" She smiled sweetly.
Zhang Xiaofan's heart sank, he suddenly felt a sense of loss, but this thought just passed away without leaving a trace, then he snorted and focused on his guard.
Since he entered the Qingyun Mountain sect, he has heard the teachings of the elders and brothers on how to harm the world and be cruel and innocent. According to the Qingyun sect's regulations, it is strictly forbidden to associate with people in the demon way. They are enemies of life and death. A total of death.
However, the girl didn't seem to have the intention of attacking immediately, instead she glanced behind Zhang Xiaofan, took a look, and suddenly said with a smile: "This sister seems to be waking up, right?"
Zhang Xiaofan looked back and saw Lu Xueqi turn over slightly, the corners of her mouth twitched twice, and slowly opened her eyes. Zhang Xiaofan was overjoyed, turned around and said: "You're awake!"
Unexpectedly, Lu Xueqi suddenly showed shock and struggled: "Be careful..."
Before Zhang Xiaofan could react, he felt a sudden strange fragrance around him, where the white light flashed, a white flower appeared in front of his eyes.
In the darkness, under the Necromancer Abyss, where can there be any flowers? Zhang Xiaofan was horrified, took a step back, but saw that the flower was calm and automatic, as if showing a smile to him in mid-air, nodded, and in an instant, a flower was torn apart, the petals were white and lovely, and the edges were A faint green light flashed and flew towards him.
Even if he didn't know the girl's demon sect identity, he would know it was wrong just by looking at the strange flower, Zhang Xiaofan was suddenly attacked, panicking, retreated a few steps, raised the fire stick in his hand to block in front of him in a panic, those who shot quickly came The petals came into contact with the dark blue light of the fire stick, most of them were blocked, but a few of them slipped by, almost hurting Zhang Xiaofan.
Zhang Xiaofan was still in shock, cursing in his heart that these demon cultists are really treacherous and treacherous, what master, wife and brothers said is really wise and famous, verbatim. But at this moment, he swept his eyes and saw the girl's figure move, but she flew towards Lu Xueqi.
Zhang Xiaofan was taken aback, seeing that Lu Xueqi was seriously injured and had no strength to fight back, and his distance was pulled away again, he hastily waved the fire stick and rushed towards the green-clothed girl.
Hearing the sound of the wind, the girl in green smiled peacefully, and greeted her with her right hand in mid-air. In an instant, all the petals flew back like lightning, gathered on the bud, and the little flower emitting a faint white light between her fingers greeted her. Going up, as soon as the white twilight came into contact with the dark blue light of the fire stick, the two came into contact with each other in mid-air, stalemate for a moment, as if there was no winner, each flew back.
In the darkness, suddenly there was a slightly surprised whisper.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, while continuing to light the fire stick, Zhang Xiaofan hastily returned to Lu Xueqi's side and stood in front of her, preventing this weird and treacherous demon girl from committing further tricks.
But the "weird and treacherous" witch suddenly stopped at this moment, no longer moving forward, let Zhang Xiaofan return to Lu Xueqi's side, looking at Zhang Xiaofan with a look of astonishment.
In the fight just now, she thought that the "sad flower" in her hand could easily cure Zhang Xiaofan, but unexpectedly, when the "sad flower" and the fire stick were in mid-air contact, it could have been passed on to people's hearts. , the strange fragrance that made people paralyzed immediately was pushed back, and there was a hint of backlash, which surprised her endlessly.
Zhang Xiaofan stood in front of Lu Xueqi, helped her stand up, and asked in a low voice: "Are you all right, Senior Sister Lu?"
Lu Xueqi shook her head slightly, Zhang Xiaofan felt relieved, turned his head and said bitterly: "Shameless monster, only sneak attack!"
The surprise in the girl's eyes disappeared immediately, replaced by a look of anger, snorted, and said: "Okay, I'll show you how powerful the demon is!"
While speaking, she wanted to make a move, Zhang Xiaofan hurriedly guarded, but in his heart he was crying, Lu Xueqi was leaning on him at this moment, weak and weak, obviously seriously injured, most likely because of the poison, and the demon girl in front of her was weird and difficult Don't worry, I'm afraid it will be difficult to take care of Senior Sister Lu when I start my hands.
It's a pity that things in the world often don't go as expected, Zhang Xiaofan's thoughts turned sharply here, but he suddenly found that things are getting worse and worse.
In the darkness, there was a little light again, but this light was different from that of the girl in green. Although it was light, it was dark in color. In the darkness, people almost thought it was black light. In the light, a faint figure came out and stopped beside the girl in green. This is a tall woman, dressed in black, with a veil on her face. She was walking with this girl in Shanhaiyuan that day. companion.
Then, under Zhang Xiaofan's astonished eyes, one light after another appeared in the darkness, and about five people appeared, dressed in yellow clothes, they were the girl's attendants who were in Shanhaiyuan that day, and all of them have arrived at this moment here.
Zhang Xiaofan only felt that his throat was dry, under the gaze of so many eyes, he couldn't help but feel cold. At this moment, he suddenly heard Lu Xueqi's soft and powerless words in his ears: "Go quickly, these humanities are not inferior to you and me, they are invincible!"
Zhang Xiaofan turned his head, and saw that pale and beautiful face was beside him, but there was no worry or fear on his face, as if he was just talking about something that couldn't be more normal. Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, shook his head, pursed his lips, turned his head again, facing those members of the Demon Cult who appeared mysteriously.
"Baguio, be careful," the masked woman looked at the two people in front, her gaze finally fell on the fire stick in Zhang Xiaofan's hand, and said in a low voice, "That black stick is a bit weird."
Baguio, that is, the girl in green, said, "Aunt You, what did you see?"
The masked woman she called Aunt You couldn't see the expression clearly, but she could hear a hint of confusion from her words: "It seems... the fierceness just now is too similar, but how can people in the righteous way have such things? They don't know how to manipulate the beads, and this, this is a short stick, what's going on?"
Bi Yao snorted, and said, "I want to see how powerful this thing is!" She took a step forward as she spoke, and the man in yellow behind her also walked forward at the same time. Zhang Xiaofan didn't see it right, although he wanted to fight the enemy, but the gap between the enemy and us was too great, so he had to help Lu Xueqi back.
The masked woman in black looked very ghostly, and she floated straight forward in the darkness, following Biguio, almost like a ghost, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "The short club in that boy's hand is extremely fierce, do you feel it?"
Baguio glanced at Zhang Xiaofan who was on guard in front of him, and nodded.
The masked woman paused for a moment, and said: "Although so, I feel that the fierce power in the short cudgel may not be fully released, and it seems to be suppressed by something. From my point of view, the short cudgel is probably more or less the same as the short stick. Our holy religion has something to do with it, this young man's identity is very suspicious, you have to think twice."
Baguio frowned and said, "Aunt You, what do you say?"
The masked woman's voice turned flat, and said: "Just capture it, take it back and show it to your father, the suzerain is wise enough to know this thing!"
Baguio thought for a while and said, "That's fine."
While talking, their feet didn't stop, they kept pushing forward, without the approval of the two of them, the man in yellow next to him would naturally not make a move.
Zhang Xiaofan helped Lu Xueqi to the ground, feeling more and more nervous, but gradually heard the sound of water waves in his ears, it seemed that he had walked back to the edge of the water at the beginning.
Bi Yao was stunned for a moment, then turned to the masked woman and said, "Aunt You, is this the 'Sea of Heartlessness'?"
The masked woman was silent for a while, but sighed in a low voice, and said: "Infatuation is only suffering for Wuqing! Yes, this is the most mysterious 'Sea of Wuqing' among the five seas."
"Ah!" As if due to her youth, Baguio didn't notice the bitterness in the words of the masked woman she called Aunt You, and she was very excited, saying, "I have heard from my father since I was a child that the heartless sea Hidden deep in the ground is the Sea of Nine Nethernesses, and I heard from him that the Blood-Dripping Cave under the Abyss of Necromancers is located on this heartless sea, it seems that we have been searching for three days, and we are finally about to find it."
The masked woman fell into silence and said nothing.
Baguio was a little strange, looked at her, then didn't take it seriously, turned her head and said: "Okay, now I'll capture you first, and then go find the dripping blood hole!"
As she spoke, she waved her hand, and the five men in yellow stepped on together, ready to make a move. Behind Zhang Xiaofan is the boundless ruthless sea in the darkness, and in front of him is surrounded by these people from the Demon Cult, he really has no way out, no way to retreat, he is in a desperate situation.
Lu Xueqi felt gusts of cold wind blowing from the ruthless sea behind her, chilling her heart, and her body was sore and weak, and she felt faintly dizzy and nauseated, probably because of the residual poison.
How clever she is, she knows this situation without thinking, if Zhang Xiaofan wants to take care of her, he can only die together.
She turned her head and looked at Zhang Xiaofan, the young man seemed to be a little nervous at the moment, his body was very tense, even the hand that supported her was tense because of the tension, even in his eyes, there was still a desire for life, a desire for death fear.
However, he obviously didn't flinch even in the slightest.
"Junior Brother Zhang." She called softly, Zhang Xiaofan heard it, and moved his shoulders, as if he was about to turn his head, but for some reason, he finally didn't look back at her.
"Senior Sister Lu, on the platform, even just now you saved me and protected me, I... I... I won't go." Zhang Xiaofan's mood was agitated, and he was about to say something bold, but the words seemed to disappear when he reached his mouth. In the end, I had no choice but to say "don't go" dryly.
Lu Xueqi stopped talking.
Zhang Xiaofan suddenly felt uneasy, did he offend her with his words? For some reason, from the first time he met Lu Xueqi, he was a little afraid of this frosty woman.
An icy cold wind blew from the ruthless sea, blowing the long hair of the silent woman behind him, and gently brushing his neck and cheeks.
The waves of the Heartless Sea seemed to suddenly surge.
In the depths of the darkness, as if sighing, the wind passed by, like a ruthless sea showing a ferocious smile, looking at the people in the world sarcastically.
Baguio smiled, and surrounded by five men in yellow.
Zhang Xiaofan took a step back, but he only felt cold under his feet, he stepped into the icy sea water.
At this moment, on the ruthless sea that was gradually turbulent, suddenly, a huge wave hit high. Steady pace.
The masked woman standing at the end suddenly changed color and shouted: "Baguio, go back!"
Baguio was startled, knowing that Aunt You was well-informed and even her father respected her, so she didn't have time to think about it, so she retreated.
As soon as she moved, the five people in yellow also retreated, only Zhang Xiaofan and Lu Xueqi who were standing closest to the beach, were caught off guard by the huge waves, their whole bodies were drenched, not to mention the chill that penetrated to the marrow of their bones. It was cold but extremely uncomfortable.
Then, everyone looked at the merciless sea that had undergone tremendous changes, and saw two huge bright lights shining with faint green light slowly lit up on the pitch-black sea, but when they looked over, the lights were really strange. Instead of an ordinary round shape, it is a slender shape from top to bottom, especially in the middle, where there are two thin dark gaps, revealing a cold and murderous intent.
"It's it, it's it." The masked woman shook her body, "This beast is still alive!"
Baguio was surprised: "Animal? Aunt You, what is this?"
The masked woman looked at the two circles of light that were getting closer and closer to the coast on the rough and ruthless sea, and said with a hint of fear in her voice, "This is the 'Black Water Snake'."
Baguio was shocked, almost couldn't believe it, and said in surprise: "Isn't this monster killed by the divine beast Yellow Bird in the Western Great Swamp thousands of years ago?"
The masked woman said quickly: "The rumors are so, but today it appeared here, and I don't know why. Baguio, this black water snake is an ancient monster, fierce and fierce, and its natural enemy, the yellow bird, can't get rid of it. Let's quickly retreat."
Baguio took two steps back, then turned her head and said, "But that kid..."
The masked woman shook her head again and again, and said, "I don't care about that anymore, let's go."
Baguio was still hesitating, but Zhang Xiaofan and Lu Xueqi, who were standing on the beach and were soaked by the waves, almost held their breath in the blink of an eye.
When they got close, the two of them saw clearly that the two huge lamps, almost as tall as two people, were actually a pair of giant eyes. Speaking of which, since he entered the Ten Thousand Bat Ancient Cave, Zhang Xiaofan has been seeing strange and huge eyes, from the old red devil's eyes to the pig-headed monster's giant eyes, but no matter which one is compared to the pair in front of him, it is simply inconceivable. It's like mustard seeds compared to Sumeru.
The sea breeze is rushing and blowing, but what it brings is not a slightly salty smell, but an overwhelming fishy smell, which chokes people's noses.
An extremely huge black giant snake slowly appeared in front of them. Its lower body is coiled, and its body is soaked in the sea water. Everyone is less than a third of the thickness of the giant snake, but the upper body and head of the black water black snake standing upright in mid-air are already tens of feet away from the ground. Gao, with snake eyes emitting a faint green glow, was looking down from above at this moment, looking at the crowd who looked like ants to it. (Note 1)
Zhang Xiaofan never knew that there is such a huge creature in this world, he even thought that the Spirit Venerable Water Kylin on Tongtian Peak of Qingyun Mountain is the biggest spirit beast in the world. But compared with the black water snake in front of him, the water unicorn is no different from a puppy in terms of body size.
Needless to say, he, Lu Xueqi beside him, and even Baguio and others from the Demon Cult, who had never seen such a huge beast, were stunned for a while, not making a sound.
