Chapter 982: Remnant Soul Awakening, Mountain People's Secret Art(2/2)
In the ruins of the altar, a figure slowly stood up. It was Chu Yao.
The originally exquisite puppet in her hand has now turned into thousands of silver threads, like a huge spider web, tightly wrapping the woman in purple.
With a sneer on her face, she threw out a roll of wedding books embroidered with a double star map.
"The engagement that Master Xi exchanged for three drops of dragon blood has ended like this." Her voice was cold, like the cold wind on a winter night, with a hint of ridicule and disdain.
The wedding letter slowly unfolded in the air, with the names of Xi Yu and Tianji Pavilion women written on it.
Some clips suddenly flashed through Xi Yu's mind. When he was in a coma, he seemed to see the tattoo on Cai's father's neck... The tattoo was exactly in line with the lotus pattern embroidered on the wedding book!
"No... impossible..." Xi Yu murmured to himself. He felt his brain was in chaos, as if something was about to break out of the ground.
The Thunder Lord's hand trembled and slowly pulled down Xi Wujiang's mask.
A face similar to Xi Yu appeared in front of everyone.
"Brother..." Xi Wujiang's voice was weak and hoarse, with a hint of indescribable complex emotions.
Xi Yu was stunned. He looked at this familiar and unfamiliar face and felt an indescribable fear surged in his heart.
"You...you are..."
He wanted to ask something, but he didn't know where to ask.
The Thunder Lord suddenly fell to the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "I deserve to die, I can't protect the young master..."
"Young Master?" Xi Yu became even more confused. He looked at Lei Hero, then watched Xi Wujiang again, feeling as if he was in a huge mystery.
"The real master of opera...there is another person..." The Lord Lei lowered his head, his voice low and hoarse, as if it was coming from the depths of hell.
Xi Yu's heart sank suddenly. He had a premonition that a bigger secret was about to surface...
The air was filled with a pungent smell of blood, mixed with the dust and decay of the ruined altar.
Xiaohong coughed violently, curled up in a ball, and suddenly coughed up blood-filled jade pieces.
Each piece of debris was like a broken mirror, reflecting the flashing torch light, casting a strange crimson glimmer on the face of the stunned by the bystanders.
When the last piece of jade fragment fell to the ground with a clang, a ghostly violet image appeared above Xiaohong's forehead.
This image vaguely appears as a woman, exuding an ancient power and anger.
Her voice seemed to come from the abyss and echoed in the ruins: "What you stole was not a engagement, but the head's life-saving method - a substitute technique used to continue bloodlines!"
Before her voice could dissipate, a strange deformation began to cover Xi Wujiang.
On his once glittering and brand new armor, strange bronze limbs grew.
The metal makes sharp crunch and moans as it twists, forming a huge and ugly arm with clawed hands at the end.
Each claw is as sharp as a razor, dropping a viscous black liquid that hisses when it drips to the ground.
There was a clear sense of threat in the air, as if a sleeping beast had been awakened.
Xi Wujiang's eyes were now flashing with an unnatural crimson light, staring at Xiaohong tightly, revealing pure and unconcealed hatred.
At the same time, Chu Yao had a firm look on her face and inserted her puppet deeply into the ground.
The ground began to tremble, and a low buzz echoed in the city.
Spider-web-like cracks appeared on the stone floor, flashing with ethereal blue light.
The cracks spread outward, forming a complex, intertwined pattern that looks like a huge lock.
It extends to the end of its sight, shrouding the entire city in its intricate network.
The air was filled with tense expectations, filled with an energy that was both ancient and terrifying.
This is the Tianji Lock Array, a legendary seal that only appears in rumors, is a proof of the power and wisdom of the Tianji Sect.
In the chaos and hustle and bustle, Xi Yu's sharp eyes locked on Cai Wenshuang.
He grabbed her wrist, but it was not painful even though it was strong.
His touch shocked her whole body, and a strange feeling surged in her heart, both fearful and other emotions mixed with...a feeling that seemed familiar.
His low and anxious voice penetrated the noise: "When your father was captured, did they give you... a goat pendant?" His focused and searching gaze stared at her, as if looking for an answer that could unravel the secret of long forgotten.
This question hangs in the air, contains unspeakable profound meaning, which is in sharp contrast with the chaotic scenes being staged around.
Cai Wenshuang widened her eyes and breathed rapidly.
Her hands instinctively touched her chest, groping under the worn-out clothes...
The air was filled with ancient energy, and the light of the Tianji Lock Array spreads on the ground like a ghost, shrouding the entire city in a mysterious blue light.
Cai Wenshuang's heartbeat was like a drum. Her hands instinctively touched her chest, and her fingertips touched the goat pendant covered with cracks.
She has always treasured this pendant in her arms and never shows it to others easily.
She knew that this was the only relic left to her by her father.
"Did they give you this pendant?" Xi Yu's voice was low and anxious. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, penetrating the noise around him.
Cai Wenshuang nodded, her heartbeats faster, and the pendant in her hand seemed to be trembling slightly.
She carefully took out the pendant from her clothes, and the cracked stone surface looked extremely mysterious under the blue light.
She showed the pendant to Xi Yu, and the eyes of the two met, and there seemed to be a strange force surging in the air.
At this moment, a figure suddenly flashed out from the darkness, and the speed was elusive.
It was a woman with a elegant appearance, but her eyes were shining with a cunning light.
She snatched the goat pendant from Cai Wenshuang's hand and sneered loudly: "Twenty years ago, I should have told the truth to Old Man Cai!"
This sudden change stunned everyone. Xi Yu frowned. He quickly protected Cai Wenshuang behind him and stared at the woman like a knife.
"Su Heng, what do you want to do?" His voice was full of threat.
Su Heng sneered disdainfully: "Do you think you can break the Heavenly Secret Lock Array? Naive! This goat pendant is the key to unlocking everything, and you... are just a chess piece."
Before he finished speaking, a burst of laughter suddenly came from not far away.
Everyone looked in the voice and saw Taoist Master Qingfeng madly pulling open his Taoist robe, revealing his chest covered with Tianji tattoos.
The tattoos looked extremely strange under the blue light, and each pattern seemed to be jumping, exuding a mysterious power.
"Look, this is the real core of the Tianji Lock!" Taoist Qingfeng laughed wildly. He pressed the bronze compass in his hand against Xi Yu's heart, and a strong energy burst out from the compass instantly, as if he was about to penetrate Xi Yu's heart.
Xi Yu's face turned pale in an instant, and he felt a powerful force raging in his body, almost making him unable to breathe.
Cai Wenshuang exclaimed, grabbed his arm tightly, her eyes full of worry.
At this moment, a black shadow fell from the sky, making the drama unbounded.
At this moment, his armor completely transformed into insects, and countless bronze tentacles extended out of the armor, entangling everyone.
The tentacles were cold and hard, as if they were chains to bind them so hard that they could not move.
"Xi Yu, Cai Wenshuang! Use twin blood to activate the pendant!" A strange voice suddenly sounded, and everyone looked along the sound and saw a woman standing not far away, holding a puppet in her hand.
The woman was Chu Yao, and her eyes were firm and decisive.
