BXBX NOVEL Chapter 124 - 124 A little tacit understanding, but not much
The secret room was not big. At most, it was only 60 square meters. There was nowhere to hide.
As soon as Huo Qiyun entered, he was shocked by the divine weapons in the room. He had remained standing at the door the entire time. If Lin Ran could walk out of the room without being discovered by him, he might need to consider donating his eyes.
But if Lin Ran didn’t leave, why did he disappear into thin air?
“Could he be up there?”
Huo Qiyun looked up. The top of the stone room was abnormally smooth, and there was no one there.
Just as Huo Qiyun was racking his brains to figure out where Lin Ran had gone, a small hand suddenly reached out in front of him. “Go over there!”
Huo Qiyun turned around and saw Xiao Huai staring in a certain direction with an excited expression. He turned to look, and his face revealed fervent excitement.
On the wall in front of them, an abnormally gorgeous sword was embedded in it.
After seeing that sword, they felt that the divine weapons on the ground paled in comparison. It was as if they were just a group of loyal soldiers guarding the gorgeous sword in this small and cramped stone room.
“Sacred Abyss Sword…”
Huo Qiyun muttered, shock written all over his face!
Wasn’t the Sacred Abyss Sword buried in Mount Sword? Why was it here? Who built this stone room? Why were there so many divine weapons?
Questions popped up one after another. Huo Qiyun felt that his mind was about to explode!
However, before he could think about it carefully, he felt the grip on his throat tighten. Xiao Huai urged anxiously, “Don’t just stand here! Go over! That’s the sword I’m looking for!”
Huo Qiyun turned around and realized that Xiao Huai was focused on the Sacred Abyss Sword and did not seem to notice that Lin Ran was gone.
Seeing this, Huo Qiyun decided to go with the flow, although he didn’t know where Lin Ran went or what Lin Ran was going to do.
Huo Qiyun shouted loudly. It sounded like he was dissatisfied with Xiao Huai, but in fact, he was trying to remind Lin Ran. “What’s the hurry? I’m just being careful.”
Then, Huo Qiyun walked slowly past the divine swords on the ground towards the Sacred Abyss Sword on the wall.
While slowing down, Huo Qiyun was also paying attention to his surroundings, preparing to cooperate immediately when he saw Lin Ran. However, when there were only two or three steps left before reaching the sacred abyss sword, nothing happened.
Seeing that Xiao Huai was about to get her hand on the Sacred Abyss Sword, Huo Qiyun couldn’t stay calm anymore. Cold sweat broke out on his face. Although he didn’t want to believe it, from the looks of it, Lin Ran had most likely run away!
“This coword!”
Huo Qiyun cursed in his heart. At the same time, he suddenly exerted strength with the tip of his foot. As he did a backflip and jumped high, he grabbed Xiao Huai’s ankle and pulled her off. Then, he threw her at the spot with the most divine weapons!
At this moment, Xiao Huai was completely focused on the Sacred Abyss Sword and could not react in time. She screamed before her back collided heavily with a divine sword. The sharp blade pierced through her body and instantly split her thin figure into two!
The two parts of her body landed on the ground with a heavy thud. Xiao Huai lay on the ground without moving, her big black eyes filled with fear, as if she had yet to realize that she was dead.
At the same time, Huo Qiyun quietly landed on the ground. He immediately drew his sword and was on guard. However, when he saw Xiao Huai’s corpse, his expression subconsciously became strange.
“She died just like that?”
Huo Qiyun blinked in disbelief. After all, this was a famous demon. Wasn’t it a little too easy to die like this?
Just as Huo Qiyun was feeling puzzled, he suddenly saw wisps of black fog floating out of the two cross sections of Xiao Huai’s corpse.
This fog was like the tentacles of a creature as it slowly conjoined in the air. A moment later, the fog on both sides fused together and began to pull the two parts of Xiao Huai’s body closer…
Under Huo Qiyun’s shocked gaze, Xiao Huai’s split body slowly pieced together. First, her spine returned to normal, then her internal organs, muscles, and skin…
“You can’t kill me.”
Xiao Huai’s muffled voice sounded. Then, she stood up and stared at Huo Qiyun with her big black eyes. There was a cold smile on her lips. “You alone will never be able to kill me.”
Huo Qiyun’s eyes were wide open. He was so frightened that he couldn’t speak.
He had been traveling all over the world all these years and had seen a lot of things. However, even so, the scene just now still blew his mind.
“But I can kill you.”
Xiao Huai’s voice sounded again, and her cold tone entered Huo Qiyun’s ears like a poisonous snake.
The sudden coldness made Huo Qiyun shudder. When he came back to his senses, he saw Xiao Huai gently shake the rattle drum. The three divine swords around her immediately rose from the ground, and a huge net of sword energy that flickered with a cold light swept towards Huo Qiyun!
“Oh no!”
Huo Qiyun hurriedly slashed out a few sword energies to meet the sword net, but he forgot the power of these divine swords…
These were the swords of the famous generals of the Heavenly Saint Dynasty. The sword intent and killing intent contained in them were far from what Huo Qiyun, who had only cultivated for decades, could compare to!
Previously, Xiao Huai could control tens of thousands of standard swords with a wave of her hand in the Hidden Sword Pavilion, but here, she could only control three swords. The power of these swords was obvious.
In just a moment, the sword energy Huo Qiyun slashed out dissipated like fire meeting water. The huge net of sword energy still came at him without even stopping for a moment!
Huo Qiyun watched in a daze as the sword net quickly approached. Deep despair filled his heart, and he did not even know that his sword had fallen to the ground.
“I can’t defeat her. There’s no hope at all.”
After this thought flashed through his mind, Huo Qiyun closed his eyes and prepared to die.
At this moment, a strong wind suddenly whizzed past him from behind. Immediately after that, Huo Qiyun felt his collar tighten before he was pulled over by a huge force!
When Huo Qiyun opened his eyes, he realized that he was lying in an unfamiliar stone passage. Lin Ran was standing at the side with his arms crossed, staring at him as if he wanted to kick him to death.
