MTL - Estranged-Chapter 128 I mean, he won't believe it.
Jiang Li is not a countryman who has never seen the world. He makes a lot of fuss at every turn. The reason why he can change his face in such a horrified way is naturally because of something terrible happened to the other party. Chi Bijiang was originally focused on Jiang Li, but now seeing his eyes, he couldn't help but also look at Mr. An opposite.
In the next moment, she also showed a look of astonishment and horror. Compared with Jiang Li, she was even worse.
Under the hood that covered most of the face was a black mask. The other party took off the mask to reveal a face that could no longer be called a human face. Most of the flesh and blood on the face was rotten, and the white bones could be seen faintly even in the dark. Where the eyeball should have been, one is a dark hollow, and the other one can barely see the shape of the eye, but it's just barely, because most of the skin around the eyelids has also turned black.
Chi Bijiang gasped, and subconsciously wanted to retreat, but Jiang Li grabbed his arm.
A little warmth came through the clothes, making her feel like returning to the world.
After a moment of bewilderment, Mr. An put the mask back on.
The hood covered half of the face, and the night covered it. The ghostly and terrifying face seemed to be just their hallucination.
But Yun Weisi knew it wasn't.
Mr. An must have suffered inhuman cruel torture and died in endless pain, because ghost cultivators who have reached his level of cultivation can change their appearance at will, such as the ghost king Linghu You, who is also a ghost cultivator, but his appearance is very handsome. But for the ghost cultivator in front of him, the pain before his death could never be erased, so that it was deeply burned in his memory, and at the same time affected his present skin.
Seeing the horrified expressions of Jiang Li and the others, Mr. An let out a mocking low laugh.
"Does your brother look like this?"
Jiang Li was speechless.
"Is your senior brother not only a ghost, but also such an evil ghost?"
Mr. An raised his head and laughed loudly. His laughter echoed like a night owl in the silent night, making one's heart chill.
"You don't want to admit it, and I won't force you. All these years, I thought you were dead, but I haven't forgotten the fire in the scripture building. Do you still remember that two days before the accident, you and I had a fight. At that time, you asked me if I wanted to replace you. You said a lot of nasty things. I was angry at first, but when I looked back, I felt something was wrong. You don’t look like this kind of person, at least Mostly it’s because you’re in a bad mood, venting to your own people, but what could be causing you to be in a bad mood, have you become obsessed with practicing Qigong, or is there something else hidden?”
Jiang Li's voice was very soft, but steady, and could be heard clearly in the night.
He even took a step forward and approached Mr. An.
"I noticed the abnormality, but I didn't go into it. Just treat it like a few days later. I didn't expect such a change to happen later. I regret it. If I had paid more attention at that time, maybe the tragedy would not have happened. Senior brother, I really want to You, Master, too, if he knows that you are still alive, he must be very happy."
"Alive?" Mr. An gave a strange smile, "I've died a long time ago, and I'm not your senior brother either. But it's a misfortune for the person you mentioned to have a junior like you!"
While speaking, Yun Weisi noticed that there was always a black mist looming around the courtyard, as if wandering and coveting, waiting for an opportunity to invade.
Those black mist are not like ghost aura, they seem to exist and disappear, they gather and disperse at times, blending with the night, so even he didn't realize when the black mist appeared.
"Here has been restricted by people. The technique is very clever. It is not a pure formation, but a combination of illusion and talisman."
Chi Bijiang also noticed it. She raised her hand and sprinkled a piece of golden starlight. Those bright and beautiful "starlight" fell to the ground and turned into golden threads. go back.
But the black mist became more frustrated and courageous, and soon recondensed into a thicker mist, which was bounced back by the golden thread again. It was only reunion again and again, and the golden thread gradually faded until it was completely swallowed by the black mist.
"What are these!" Jiang Li asked Mr. An loudly, "Brother, do you hate me that much?"
Mr. An sneered: "I didn't set this up. I want to kill you. I don't need to make such an effort. Although you are the sect master of the Wanjian Immortal Sect, your cultivation level has not yet reached the threshold of a great master. You are just showing off your status!"
Between the words, it is already acquiescing to one's own identity.
Jiang Li smiled wryly, but was also not angry: "My aptitude has never been far inferior to yours. If you are still here, the suzerain must be you."
Yao Wangnian said coldly, "Even if I'm still here, the suzerain won't be me."
Jiang Li heard that there was something in his words, and was about to ask carefully, but saw that Chi Bijiang sprinkled several pieces of golden light one after another, forming three golden circles, surrounding the few of them, the black mist soon reached the first circle, and was shot After going back several times, he persevered, and quickly ate up the first golden thread, and bumped into a wall outside the second golden thread. Several times in a row, he couldn't get in, and the offensive eased down instead.
Jiang Li sacrificed the flying sword, and the sword energy was vertical and horizontal, instantly illuminating most of the area above the heads of the four of them. Chi Bijiang only felt the coldness, piercing the soul, and thought, is this the power of the legendary Lonely Moon Sword? Yao Wangnian sneered again, Jian Guang not only failed to split the black mist, but was bounced back by the black mist, and directly attacked Jiang Li and Chi Bijiang!
Chi Bijiang was taken aback, but saw that Jiang Li's hands were forming seals, and when the sword light was approaching, he dispelled it, and there was no danger.
But his actions just now also proved that the black mist is difficult to split with force, no wonder Yao Wangnian sneered.
"Eldest brother, I know you are not the murderer, but there must be someone behind the gathering of dream monsters and fox spirits here. We need to find out that person before we can break the situation in Hongluo Town. You came here earlier than me. He is beside the town supervisor, so he must know more than me, can you give us some pointers?" Jiang Li asked earnestly.
Yun Weisi also thought that the master of the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Sect was mediocre, far inferior to his master Luo Mei in terms of cultivation and sophistication, perhaps it was because of this that he was taken away by Luo Mei and pretended to be his identity for so many years, but at this moment Hearing the conversation between him and Yao Wangnian, I found that this person spoke in a very steady state of mind, neither surprised nor angry, and he didn't get angry when he was repeatedly teased by Yao Wangnian. Either he had a good temper, or the city was deep. Judging from the later events, It should be the former. But Jiang Li's temperament is easy to get along with among ordinary people, but he still lacks the means and courage to be the leader of the clan.
Yao Wangnian stared at him for a long time, then suddenly said: "Jiang Li, I didn't expect you to be so naive after becoming suzerain, Wanjian Xianzong will be destroyed sooner or later if it is handed over to you."
Chi Bijiang was slightly annoyed: "Your Excellency has time to say these things, why don't you help expel the black mist and leave this place, if we all die here, what's the point of your words!"
Yao Wangnian said indifferently: "The black mist hasn't existed for a day or two, it's just that someone suddenly gathered them here to invite you into the urn and trap me here to death. Even if you don't die, you will be enchanted. Your arrival is just an accident. The big deal is to catch them all. Just keep it alive."
Jiang Li's eyes were fixed: "Who wants to kill you?"
His answer was silence.
Yun Weisi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "This person must be someone you and he both know, and he is very familiar with him. He has never given up on tracking Yao Wangnian from the scripture library back then to now. Once he finds out that your elder brother is still alive , will definitely kill the killer, without hesitation."
"Who are you!" Yao Wangnian looked at him suddenly, his gaze under the mask was as sharp as a knife.
"A guest who met by chance." Yun Weisi's face was light, "Yao Wangnian, you already have the answer in your heart, but you dare not say it. Now, you have been harmed by him. We are all trapped." Life and death are unpredictable here, how long will you help him hide it?"
Jiang Li and Chi Bijiang were in shock, especially Jiang Li, whose eyes wandered between Yun Weisi and Yao Wangnian.
"Friend Daoist Yun, what do you know?"
Yao Wangnian fixed his eyes on Yun Weisi.
"You are not from Wanjian Xianzong, who are you!"
"I said, I have nothing to do with you, I met by chance, and accidentally glimpsed a corner of the truth. If you don't tell the truth about the past, your junior brother will only repeat your mistakes in the same way in the future. You, him, Wanjian Xianzong, and even The whole world will be overthrown because of this. You should be very clear that the person who can do this kind of thing to you is a villain, a merciless person, and will not have any mercy at all. This is true for you, let alone for the world people?"
Yun Weisi looked back coldly, her aura was not inferior to him at all.
At this time, although his cultivation base has declined compared to more than a hundred years later, he was once the head of the Taoist sect and the master of Jiuchongyuan. Compared with the three present, his demeanor is no less than that of the three present. He deliberately restrained his breath before. , Yao Wangnian also focused on Jiang Li. At this time, he let go of the aura around him, and immediately made Yao Wangnian alert.
Cultivators have a keen sense of smell, especially ghost cultivators, who transcend ordinary people and wander in the dark. Yao Wangnian faintly sensed something from Yun Weisi's attitude and aura, but he couldn't tell. This kind of mysterious and mysterious The feeling made him stop asking, but fell silent. After a while, he said hoarsely: "Even if I say, he won't believe it."
Yun Weisi: "If you don't tell, he will never know."
Jiang Li didn't know what charade they were playing, and was about to speak when a soft and warm hand suddenly grabbed his.
"My three golden threads can last for a while." Chi Bijiang whispered over his ear.
Although she still didn't understand what happened, she could detect Jiang's anxiety in time.
Jiang Li hummed lightly, and his anxiety suddenly eased a lot. He found that Yao Wangnian's attitude was slightly looser, not as stubborn and extreme as before. I don't know how much impact Yao Wangnian's words will bring to him.
At this time, Jiufang Changming had just repelled Huafan and other fox spirits' sneak attack attempts when he ushered in a new powerful enemy.
He took three steps back, lowered his head slightly, and spat out blood.
"Senior!" A Rong turned pale with shock, and quickly supported him.
