Looking at his expression,
It was as if waves of pain were coming from his right eye.
It was unbearable. Xie Lian immediately took a step back. "How are you?"
The corner of Hua Cheng's mouth twitched slightly, but he resisted the urge to answer. The silver eye on the hilt of the Misfortune Blade opened, and the eyeball began to spin wildly. The veins on the back of Hua Cheng's hand that was placed on the altar slightly bulged, as if he wanted to overturn the altar. Xie Lian raised his hand to touch him,
But Hua Cheng shouted in a low voice, "Don't come over!"
Xie Lian's movements became sluggish.
Hua Cheng endured and said, "… … Your Highness.
You, quickly leave me. I might … … "
Xie Lian said, "How can I leave like this?!"
Hua Cheng was slightly annoyed. "If you stay here, I … …!"
Wave after wave of ghostly wails and wolf howls came from outside the Thousand Lanterns.
On the main street of the Ghost City, a group of ghosts fell to the ground.
They cried to the heavens, clutched their heads and screamed.
It was as if they had a splitting headache, and it was better to die than to live. Qi Rong ran quickly in front of them.
This was because he was attached to a living person. Although this body weakened his powers, it also acted as a barrier and weakened the attacks against the ghost body.
However, it also served as a barrier that weakened the attacks against the ghost body. Thus, he was still able to barely move about.
He seized the opportunity to run away. The female ghosts holding Gu Zi fell to the ground and cried out in pain. They couldn't sing their hypnotic songs anymore.
Gu Zi woke up in a daze.
He just happened to see Qi Rong madly running. He quickly got up and chased after him, shouting, "Dad! Dad! Wait for me! "
As Qi Rong ran, he turned around and stuck out his tongue.
He rolled his eyes and said, "Lu lu lu la la la, good son, dad is leaving! Hahahaha! "
Gu Zi was still chasing after him with his two short legs. Seeing him running further and further away, he cried out, "Father! Don't leave me! Dad, take me with you! "
Qi Rong spat, "Go away! Go away! Don't chase me! You're a hindrance! "
His spit flew far away and hit Gu Zi's forehead, causing Gu Zi to fall backwards. He sat on the ground and cried loudly, crying his heart out. Xie Lian couldn't bear to listen anymore. He rushed out of Thousand Lanterns Monastery and angrily shouted, "Qi Rong!"
When Qi Rong saw him blocking his way, he was so scared that he quickly ran back. In the process, he picked up the grains on the ground and said, "Don't come over! Come here, I'll bite off this little drag's skull right now for you to see! My good son, you want to be food for your father. How filial of you! Tomorrow, I'll cook you. Braise or steam, you can choose for yourself. Hahahahaha! "
How could Xie Lian be afraid of him? Just as he was about to chase after him, he heard a loud noise behind him. It turned out that Hua Cheng had swept the brush and ink on the table to the ground. As a last resort, Xie Lian didn't have the time to care about Qi Rong. He turned around and said, "San Lang …"
Suddenly, Hua Cheng hugged him tightly and said in a trembling voice, "I lied. Don't leave. "
"…" Xie Lian stiffened like an iron board in his arms. "San Lang? Do you recognize who I am? "
He seemed to be delirious and couldn't recognize who was in front of him. He just hugged Xie Lian tightly and muttered, "… I'm lying, don't leave."
Xie Lian's eyes widened. Outside the Thousand Lanterns Monastery came Qi Rong's proud laughter and Gu Zi's loud wails. Qi Rong said, "Hehe! Dog Hua Cheng! Who asked you to look down on me all day long! Who asked you to act all high and mighty all day long! This is karma, isn't it? You're down! "
The wailing ghosts on the street didn't have any strength left, but they also started cursing, "Green Ghost! You useless trash, where did you get the guts to scold our Master of the City?! "
Hearing the clamor of the people around him, Hua Cheng seemed to be especially angry. He raised his hand and was about to send them flying. Xie Lian quickly hugged him and pressed down his hand. He said gently, "Okay, okay. I won't leave. I won't leave you. " He raised his hand again and made the door of the Thousand Lanterns Monastery close automatically. Qi Rong couldn't come in under such circumstances. He raised his voice and said, "If you want to leave, then leave. I don't have time for you! If you don't leave, be careful … Ah! "
Unexpectedly, it wasn't enough for Hua Cheng to just hug him. He suddenly pushed him down on the jade table. This time, the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone were scattered all over the ground. Xie Lian's hand streaked across the plate of cinnabar on the table. As he struggled, he left a few dark red marks on the paper. In the "Thoughts of Separation", the two words "Wu Shan" in the sentence "Wu Shan is not a cloud" were stained with tender and alluring red marks. Xie Lian said, "Three … …"
Before he could finish speaking, Hua Cheng pressed down on his shoulder and kissed him.
Qi Rong obviously heard something was wrong. He laughed and said, "Cousin Crown Prince, you have to be careful! Right now, Dog Hua Cheng is definitely like a mad dog, biting whoever he catches! Laozi will go out and help you guys spread the news. There are a lot of monks and Taoist priests who have a grudge against Dog Hua Cheng. Take advantage of this time to quickly come and settle accounts with him! Hahahahaha … … "His voice gradually faded away. Xie Lian's heart tightened. What if Qi Rong really called over a large group of mages and Taoist priests that Hua Cheng had offended in the past and took advantage of the ghosts? With the current situation, how could the ghosts of the Ghost City remain unscathed?
However, Hua Cheng didn't give him the time to think about these things. He clearly wasn't a living person and didn't have any body temperature. However, at this moment, his body was abnormally hot, as if he was experiencing a high fever. Xie Lian's lips were tightly pressed against Hua Cheng's, and he was forced to endure the surging heat from Hua Cheng's body. The hand that was originally going to push Hua Cheng away instead grabbed the red shirt on his shoulder.
Perhaps it was because Hua Cheng's magic was too strong, but his entire throat, chest, and abdomen felt warm and swollen. It was extremely uncomfortable. Xie Lian felt that if he continued to be forced to endure like this, his entire body would be penetrated by the thing that Hua Cheng had forcefully transferred over. Clenching his teeth, he forcefully struck out with his palm. However, although he struck out with his palm, he couldn't really attack Hua Cheng. He could only strike Hua Cheng's shoulder. This strike was neither light nor heavy. Hua Cheng forcefully grabbed Xie Lian's wrist, pressed it down, and continued to vent.
If this continued, he really couldn't take it anymore. This time, Xie Lian used both his hands to forcefully push Hua Cheng away. He fled to the side of the altar, panting slightly. However, Hua Cheng's eyes were bloodshot as he pressed Xie Lian down on the altar. Xie Lian called out, "San Lang!"
"… …"
Perhaps because his voice had some effect, Hua Cheng stared at Xie Lian's face for a long time before suddenly hugging him tightly.
Seeing that Hua Cheng was obedient and no longer forcefully infused his magic, Xie Lian let out a sigh of relief. However, as he hugged Hua Cheng, he felt that the magic in Hua Cheng's body was going berserk. No wonder Hua Cheng kissed him the moment he caught him. He was so frantic that he had to find a breakthrough point to vent. If Xie Lian wanted to completely calm down and recover his consciousness, he might have to bleed him. However, Hua Cheng wasn't a living person, so how could he bleed him?
After thinking about it again and again, Xie Lian still said, "… … Sorry for offending you."
Thus, he held Hua Cheng's face with both hands and took the initiative to cover his lips. He slowly guided the dry and hot spiritual flow from Hua Cheng's body into his own, helping him relieve the pain and heat. Hua Cheng also wrapped his arms around Xie Lian's waist. Xie Lian lightly trembled, and in the next moment, the two of them tumbled onto the altar.
It really was unfair. Xie Lian didn't dare to touch even the slightest bit of danger on Hua Cheng's body, yet Hua Cheng relied on his delirium to act unscrupulously on Xie Lian's body, forcing Xie Lian to suffer unspeakably. This altar was originally a place where gods were worshiped, yet at this moment, a ghost and a god were lying there, hugging and kissing each other. It was truly absurd and strange, yet it was also affectionate and gorgeous.
The first few times, both sides were still relatively clear-headed. Every time, they seemed to have an incomparably proper reason for doing this. When they did this kind of thing, they could still be considered restrained, limiting it to only lips touching. However, this time, one side's mind was in chaos, causing the other side to be caught unprepared. In his daze, Xie Lian finally confirmed one thing. Although it seemed as if he couldn't control himself every time, in reality, there were times when he couldn't help himself.
After enduring this torment for most of the night, the restlessness in Hua Cheng's body finally slowly calmed down. His arms that were hugging Xie Lian also loosened a little. Xie Lian turned over and sat up. Gazing at Hua Cheng's closed eyes and sleeping face, he sighed.
Evil Fate was thrown to the side, his eyeballs still rapidly moving around. Xie Lian took the scimitar and touched it in his hand for a long time. Only then did Evil Fate slightly narrow his eyes, as if he was finally satisfied. Not long after, Hua Cheng suddenly turned over and sat up. He said, "… Your Highness?!"
Xie Lian quickly adjusted his expression. Turning around, he happily said, "You're awake? Everything's fine now. "
Hua Cheng looked around. Inside the main shrine of Thousand Lanterns Monastery, the floor was a mess. His expression was one of surprise and bewilderment, as if he didn't remember what happened last night. Xie Lian took the initiative to calmly ask, "What happened last night? All of your subordinates suddenly had headaches, fevers, and were restless. You too, your temper was very big. "
Hua Cheng asked, "Apart from that?"
Xie Lian said, "Apart from that? That's all. "
Hua Cheng stared at him and said, "Is that really all? Then how did I calm down? "
Xie Lian lightly coughed, a little embarrassed as he said, "To tell you the truth, San Lang, please don't blame me. Aside from this …" He raised his hand that was currently stroking Misfortune Sword and said, "I also, cough cough, fought with you."
"… …"
Hua Cheng asked doubtfully, "… … fought?"
Xie Lian's expression didn't change. He looked at him sincerely and said, "Yes, you see, this shrine is in such a mess. It was all because of our fight."
"… …"
After a while, Hua Cheng let out a breath and held his forehead with one hand.
Seeing that he didn't ask any more questions, Xie Lian finally put down his hanging heart and secretly sighed in relief.
At this moment, Hua Cheng said in a low voice, "It's opened."
Xie Lian said, "What?"
Hua Cheng looked up and said in a deep voice, "Bronze Cauldron Mountain has reopened."
Both of them were very clear about the meaning of this sentence. Xie Lian's eyes widened. "A new Ghost King … … is about to be born?"
·
When Xie Lian went back to report, the thunder above the Immortal Capital was rumbling incessantly. Stepping into the Divine Martial Shrine, Xie Lian subconsciously wanted to find someone to ask, "What happened to Master Lei?" But after he said that, he remembered that the position where Master Lei usually stood was no longer occupied. The Navy Master at the front and the Earth Master at the corner were also gone. He was startled and sighed in his heart. Turning his head, he saw Lang Qianqiu enter the shrine.
After not seeing him for a long time, Lang Qianqiu had lost a lot of weight and looked a little more depressed. He looked at Xie Lian and turned his head without saying a word.
Xie Lian looked around but couldn't find anyone he could casually talk to.
A voice answered, "Nothing much, the Ghost King is about to be born. Ghosts are crying and the thunder can't be stopped."
The one who answered was Feng Xin. For some reason, seeing him made Xie Lian feel very close. However, one of Feng Xin's eyes was black. Xie Lian couldn't help but look at Mu Qing who was far away on the other side of the shrine. Mu Qing's cheek was swollen. It seemed that the two of them had a grudge for many years.
Jun Wu said, "I'm sure everyone knows why I called everyone here this time."
The Heavenly Officials all nodded in agreement. Jun Wu slowly said, "Heaven and Earth are the cauldron, and all living beings are the copper.
"Bronze Cauldron Mountain is a naturally dangerous place. It is an active volcano that can erupt at any time.
"Every hundred years, the Gu City in the mountain opens and thousands of ghosts tremble. The previous Ghost Kings were especially affected. All the demons and ghosts who desire to ascend will rush to Bronze Cauldron Mountain. Once they gather, Bronze Cauldron Mountain will be closed again and the slaughter will officially begin.
"When there is only one left, the Ghost King will be born.
"Blood Rain Tanhua and Black Water Sinks Boat are both Ghost Kings from Bronze Cauldron Mountain. It took Heishui twelve years and Huacheng ten years. "
Mu Qing coldly said, "One Black Water and one Hua Cheng is already very troublesome. Let's see what they did. If there is another one, it will be troublesome. "
Xie Lian warmly said, "General Xuan Zhen, I won't comment on what Black Water did. However, Hua Cheng didn't do anything too excessive, right? "
Mu Qing puffed up his swollen cheek and looked at him. Pei Ming said, "It is quite troublesome. That's why we have to stop the tens of thousands of ghosts this time, right? "
Jun Wu said, "Yes. It will take a few months for the ghosts to gather. We must try to stop them before they gather. "
Xie Lian asked, "What if we can't stop them in time? Can we still salvage the situation? "
Jun Wu said, "Yes, but I hope it won't come to that. The most important thing now is that the ghosts have stirred up a wave of chaos. Many of the demons and ghosts that were suppressed in various places have escaped. Many of them are extremely dangerous and non-human, such as the female ghost Xuan Ji, the fetus spirit, and the immortal in brocade clothes. They must be rushing towards Bronze Cauldron Mountain now. We must capture them immediately. "
Xie Lian said, "They all escaped? Then this is indeed a big mess. "
Jun Wu said, "So I'm afraid that the martial gods from the various halls will have to spend more effort to thoroughly investigate the areas under their jurisdiction."
Xie Lian said, "Then … what about me?"
