Chapter 245: A plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain
As soon as he finished speaking, a black feather floated towards her in the air, landed in Chu Xu's palm, and then flew away leisurely.
Chu Xu held the black feather in her hand, and the expression in her eyes changed several times, gradually changing from struggle to determination. She looked up, and an ambiguous light flashed in her dark eyes.
When Li Nian arrived on her sword, she did not alarm anyone, but she soon realized something was wrong. It was clearly the Taixu Hidden Bell that sealed off this area.
No one can break through this barrier, even a cultivator in the combined state may not be able to detect it.
Li Nian frowned and was silent for a few seconds. Then she turned around and prepared to leave. It was obvious that it was a trap and entering it would be a dead end.
"Since you're here, why don't you come in?"
A ghostly figure quietly appeared behind Li Nian, approached Li Nian and spoke softly.
A chill arose around Li Nian's neck. She frowned slightly, moved some distance away from her, and looked up at her.
"What do you want me to do?" she asked coldly.
The smile on Chu Xu's lips grew wider and wider. With a pair of innocent eyes, she smiled and said, "Of course, it's to reminisce about the past."
This was the second time Li Nian noticed her strangeness. This place should clearly be a place with rich spiritual energy, but why was there not a trace of spiritual power here?
The power of chaos is the most mysterious and powerful force in the world. Not to mention being able to see through everything, it is more than enough to see through the spiritual platform of a cultivator.
But every time the power of chaos she mobilized approached her, it would be bounced away by an invisible force. What was there that was extra in her body?
She looked at her calmly, "Reminiscing about the past? This is the first time I've heard of someone coming to reminisce about the past in the middle of the night. Princesses are different, aren't they?"
These words were full of sarcasm, but Chu Xu didn't care at the moment. She just raised an eyebrow and looked at her, tilting her chin inward. "Why don't you come in and sit down? You can listen to me tell you about your life story."
Li Nian crossed his arms, looked at her with a hint of disdain, and said calmly, "I'm just an orphan. What's there to say about my life story?"
Chu Xu listened, and she couldn't help laughing out loud, as if she had thought of something. She said in an ambiguous way:
"Heh, are you deceiving yourself, or do you really not care? Don't you realize that part of your memory has been blocked?"
Li Nian paused, looking as if he had no idea what she was talking about, but he didn't turn around and leave. He just stood there quietly looking at her.
Chu Xu glanced at her, then walked slowly into the yard, then turned around and said
"Everything that confuses you, as long as you come in, I will tell you one by one, including Jiang Yuxia."
As expected, when she mentioned Jiang Yuxia, Li Nian's expression fluctuated. After hesitating for a moment, the man came in obediently.
A smug look flashed across Chu Xu's eyes, and she poured herself a cup of tea, picked it up and took a sip.
Li Nian looked into the house, his long eyelashes drooping, not knowing what he was thinking.
"How did you and Jiang Yuxia, two five-year-old children, get to Lanxi Village? And why did Elder Shuanghua bring you back to Tianyan Sect? Have you never had any doubts about all this?"
Li Nian raised his eyebrows and nodded, as if confirming what she said, "Then what do you think I should be suspicious of?"
Chu Xu's eyes lit up with joy. She didn't expect that she would believe her so quickly. She continued
"Weren't the memories in your sea of consciousness sealed by Elder Shuanghua? Apart from him, who else could have sealed your memories so quietly and silently?"
"I was just an ordinary child in Lanxi Village back then. Why would my master seal my memory?"
Chu Xu sneered, "Ordinary? The only chaotic spirit in the world actually calls itself ordinary. You are really modest."
Li Nian's heart skipped a beat. Only a few people knew about the chaotic spirit body, and Su Yu ordered the news to be blocked. How did Chu Xu know about it?
Chu Xu tilted her head and smiled, her eyes innocent yet vicious, "Are you shocked that I know this? But I know everything. Are you afraid?"
"Oh, I'm so scared." Li Nian replied perfunctorily.
Chu Xu didn't care about Li Nian's attitude. She just smiled and said, "I admire your courage. You are fearless because you have Elder Shuanghua as your backer, but have you ever thought that in the end, he was the one who ended your life with his own hands?"
Li Nian's face changed slightly when she heard this, but then she regained her composure. However, her fingertips under her sleeves were deeply embedded in her palms, and she gave a light reminder.
"You're getting off track. Aren't you going to talk about Yuxia and me?"
Chu Xu stared at her for a few seconds, the smile in her eyes becoming more and more obvious. Since the seed of doubt had been planted, it was enough for her.
"My background? If you have any questions, why not go to the Longyuan Kingdom Palace and you will find out."
Li Nian's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he said in a cold voice, "Do you want me to go to your territory so that you can attack me?"
Chu Xu shook her head. "Remember Gui Wenshan? He's the only one who knows your life story. He's in the Longyuan Kingdom Palace."
After taking a look at Li Nian's expression, she continued, "I really do want to kill you, but not now, don't worry."
Li Nian sneered, feeling that she had come here to listen to a bunch of nonsense literature, which was a waste of her feelings. She turned around and was about to leave.
A stream of spiritual energy swung over, blocking her path. Li Nian dodged sideways, "What are you doing?"
"The time has not come yet, you can't leave." Chu Xu held the Taixu Hidden Bell in her hand and spoke slowly.
Li Nian raised his eyelids, looked at her calmly, drew the power of chaos in his hand, and smashed it directly at the barrier, causing tiny cracks to appear.
Then it expanded larger and larger, and the dense cracks were like a spider web. With a crisp sound, the barrier was broken.
At the same time, a loud noise came from the direction of Lingyao Peak. A strange and evil aura instantly spread throughout the Tianyan Sect, and the sect's protective barrier was activated.
Li Nian paused, frowned and thought for a while, then his face turned pale. This was a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain. Chu Xu's target was never him.
"Aren't we leaving? Then let's go watch a good show together."
Li Nian's eyelashes moved slightly, hiding the hostility that flashed across his eyes. He looked at her coldly and flew quickly to Lingyao Peak on his sword.
At this time, Lingyao Peak was in chaos. Elder Kongqing was a medical practitioner and not a combatant, so he was unable to control the chaotic situation for a while.
All the disciples of Lingyao Peak Mountain were constantly fleeing, and the sky was filled with black lines. If they were not careful, they would be infected by the ancient evil spirit.
The disciples with lower cultivation were hit instantly and fell to the ground, rolling around trying to relieve the pain in their bodies, with black lines gradually creeping up their faces.
Fang Hean's hands hardly stopped moving. The disciples around him had relatively low cultivation levels and had no power to resist the attack of the black line.
He turned the sword in his hand, and the spiritual power gathered at the tip of the sword. He was unable to eliminate the black line, so he could only use the wind to push the black line back a few points.
