Originated from mountains and seas, life never ends

Chapter 195 Everything Trembles

Oh no, he's coming!

Nangong Huaxue suddenly realized that a terrifying aura was approaching rapidly, and he became nervous unconsciously.

Wang Ji on the side also obviously noticed it, but he just paused and still did nothing.

Nangong Huaxue saw that he didn't react and didn't answer the previous question. Although she didn't know what was going on, the most important thing now was to pull the child out.

So Nangong Huaxue stopped looking at him, turned around and ran towards the grass cocoon, with flames rising in his palms, trying to ignite it directly.

At the moment when the flame was about to touch the outer grass, a green light flashed, and dozens of thick grass leaves attacked her, and danger came.

Nangong Huaxue had to take a few steps back to avoid the attacks from all around, and with a wave of his arm, flames rose up, engulfing all the abnormal grass leaves, including the solid green grass ball.

In the light of the burning fire, I could vaguely see the outline of a firebird, perhaps because the high temperature caused the distortion of the air and created an illusion.

The magnificent figure only appeared for a moment, and disappeared along with the dissipating flames in the next second.

It didn't burn.

Nangong Huaxue fell from mid-air, glanced at the smooth grass ball, and frowned.

Is it fireproof?

She remembered that Wang Ji once told her that if a cultivator's cultivation was much higher than hers, or if he was intentionally training his attributes, he could avoid water and fire.

Just like the grass cocoon now.

Nangong Huaxue flipped over in the air and landed next to Wang Ji. Looking at the grass ball covered with several layers not far away, she couldn't help but let out a "tsk".

"If you hadn't wanted to hit me just now, the child would have been rescued long ago." Nangong Huaxue said half complainingly.

The voice also changed.

Wang Ji closed his eyes and concealed his expression.

"If you hadn't stopped me, this matter would be over now." Wang Ji looked at her coldly and finally spoke.

"How is it possible? How can you be so murderous?" Nangong Huaxue said dissatisfiedly, "There was a chance to save him."

"Even if he is rescued now, with his identity, he will definitely have different troubles in the future... It's better to just end it here." Wang Ji did not change his opinion.

Nangong Huaxue frowned, and looked at him with a complicated look, as if she couldn't understand why he had such an idea.

Ignoring the woman's incomprehensible look, Wang Ji stared at the old man who had arrived, his eyes calm.

"It's even more lively than I thought." The old man sneered and waved his hand to lift the huge grass ball into the air and fly it towards him.

“——Wait!” Seeing this, Nangong Huaxue tiptoed the ground and wanted to chase after him.

Murderous aura filled her body. Countless blades of grass suddenly appeared and surrounded her. The sharp leaves turned into sharp knives, forming a shocking whirlwind around her, and it seemed that she was about to be torn into pieces.

At the critical moment, flames rose from it, and the scorching heat waves engulfed all the grass leaves in an instant. The temperature of the flame core rose to a high level, burning it to ashes.

But after all, it is a realm of strength that has never been recorded before. The eye-catching blue color appears again in the center of the flame. Ignoring the high temperature around him, he vows to cut the woman in the center of the air into pieces!

The entire process from the blue color reappearing to approaching the eyelids took only the blink of an eye.

The sharp blade cut the woman's earlobe. Nangong Huaxue was startled and had to give up the pursuit.

Sensing the murderous aura coming from her limbs, driven by her combat instinct from her previous life, she dislocated all of her limbs without hesitation, and her whole body twisted like a twist, passing through the gaps between the leaves and flipping over to the ground.

She said that it was still necessary to practice this skill.

Nangong Huaxue rubbed his shoulders and stretched his body in a strange way, with teeth-grinding "crackling" sounds constantly coming from his body.

It is the sound of the joint being repositioned.

How dangerous...

Nangong Huaxue was still frightened and looked back at the leaves floating in the air.

It was almost scraped into a stick.

At the same time, the old man who had just caught a "Shadow Bite" raised his head and looked at the man in front of him with a forced smile.

"It's really unexpected that you can give the shadow attribute such attack power. You have a good talent."

"But...it's a pity."

The old man said this in an ambiguous way, and his hand slowly tightened. Wang Ji sensed the danger, let go first, stepped back a few steps, and left the danger area.

Wang Ji ignored his words and glanced at Nangong Huaxue beside him. After confirming that she was not injured, he turned his gaze away slowly.

Nangong Huaxue glanced at him secretly and found that his expression was somehow even colder than before, which was a bit strange.

Wang Ji pursed his lips, thinking back to how she had just broken her joints without hesitation, and suddenly felt anxious.

"What on earth do you want to do, old man?" But Nangong Huaxue didn't think too much about it. He rubbed his shoulders with a gritted teeth and looked at the old man.

She and Wang Ji were no match for him, and they would be the ones to suffer if they acted rashly.

Nangong Huaxue decided to have a talk first. Even if he couldn't convince her, it could at least delay some time.

"Don't think about stalling for time, little girl."

Unexpectedly, the old man spoke and directly exposed her thoughts.

Nangong Huaxue: ...

Nangong Huaxue: Tsk.

"No, I'm really curious, what do you want to do? Resurrect Mo Ze? ... Can he really be resurrected?"

Nangong Huaxue asked sincerely.

She was really curious about this.

Mo Ze... the guy Xiao had been looking for for decades. She really didn't have a good impression of him, not to mention that she had heard so many gossips about him after coming to this world. For a while, Mo Ze's image in her heart was so low that it couldn't be any lower.

Although she was very dissatisfied with it, but...

Nangong Huaxue's eyes were dark.

He is very important to Xiao.

No matter how she looked at him, Xiao's attitude towards him had not changed at all, she could see that.

That person... is still so important to Xiao.

damn it……

Nangong Huaxue thought about this and couldn't help but grit her teeth, her eyes gleaming with ferocity: "You know him, right? That guy called Mo Ze... who is he to you?"

"..." The old man was not prepared to answer her question, but something touched him and he suddenly turned to look at Nangong Huaxue.

"You... know him?" The old man looked at her with a very strange look.

"I don't know him." Nangong Huaxue said without hesitation, "I told you, I'm just curious."

"You have cultivated to such an unprecedented level and lived for such a long time. Why are you still persisting? Did you live for such a long time just to revive him?"

"Of course!" Unexpectedly, the old man said without hesitation, with a crazy fire burning in his eyes, "I have lived until now just to bring that adult back to life!"

"The purpose of my life is to revive him!"

The obsession was like a scar deeply engraved in his eyes, even though his eyeballs were already cloudy.

"He wouldn't want to see you like this."

A strange voice suddenly sounded, startling everyone present.

When Nangong Huaxue heard this voice, his blood almost froze and he looked up in disbelief.

The old man suddenly turned around and met the man's cold gaze. Without any hesitation, he threw the grass ball again, this time towards the valley in the distance.

The man turned around to chase after him, but his way was blocked by swollen grass vines.

"Not allowed!"

The old man waved his hand and spread murderous intent.

A flash of silver light passed by, and the grass leaves were easily chopped into pieces by the blade.

But he immediately made up for it.

Countless huge green vines rose up to form a thick wall, surrounding the four sides.

The shadow swung his knife and cut it in half. The thick green vine was as fragile as tofu under his knife.

But the green vine rose up wave after wave like a rolling wave, and at the same time the old man aimed his attack at his back.

The shadow had to stop.

Nangong Huaxue's gaze followed him closely. When she saw him stop and hold his breath, she could see his appearance clearly in the bright moonlight. She didn't dare to breathe for a moment, fearing that it was an illusion.

"you……"

Nangong Huaxue opened her mouth unconsciously and wanted to say something, but then she came to her senses and stopped talking, pursed her lips, and her eyes were complicated.

The two people who were negotiating did not notice her soft moan, but Wang Ji glanced at her.

"You know him?"

The old man blocked the shadow's way, but did not attack like before. Instead, he asked him with a complicated expression.

Although it was a question, the tone was that of a statement, and not only that, it was repeated firmly.

"You know him."

"Why do you say that?" Qin Xiao turned around, looked at the old man, and slowly frowned.

"Only you...only you said that."

The old man was muttering to himself as if he were possessed by a demon.

"Only you...only you..."

"what?"

Qin Xiao frowned.

The old man suddenly raised his head, his eyes emitting a strange light, staring at him with a fierce tone.

"You are the only one who - said "he won't" -!!"

what?

The old man's words confused the two onlookers, but Qin Xiao immediately understood what he meant and his expression became serious.

"For so many years... no matter who they were with, as long as it was related to this plan... they always stood on the child's side, the perspective of a bystander... to criticize me and try to stop me..."

"Only you—"

"You're the only one who said that. That adult wouldn't want to see me like this."

The old man's voice couldn't stop trembling when he mentioned that person.

"Almost everyone assumes that this plan was approved by that adult. Some even think that this was the adult's plan and that I was brainwashed... Only you—"

"You just said it with more certainty than anyone else."

"You must have seen him. Who are you?"

As the old man spoke, a hint of ferocity flashed in his eyes.

"..."

Qin Xiao was silent.

Nangong Huaxue was stunned.

Is this person so... magical?

Should we say he is sharp or that he is nitpicking?

But luck or not, he was right.

Xiao had met Mo Ze before.

Nangong Huaxue looked at Qin Xiao with complicated feelings.

How would you answer?

"The aura on you... is very strong." Seeing that the man didn't speak, the old man continued. He seemed irrational during the previous attack, but when facing things related to Mo Ze, he seemed particularly calm.

"You must have something of his on you. Did he give it to you on his own initiative? Or did he snatch it from you at that time? He should have given it to you on his own initiative, after all, I killed all those people..."

The old man murmured, and suddenly, as if struck by lightning, he looked at Qin Xiao in disbelief.

“It’s you…it’s you!!”

Qin Xiao was shocked by his reaction and was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to react.

"It's because of you—"

Anger, hatred...the overwhelming negative emotions almost buried him.

The old man stared at him intently, and the hatred emanating from his body almost condensed into a entity, spreading in all directions without distinction.

"It's because of you... that he died!!!"

The old man screamed hysterically, showing unprecedented madness.

The bloody murderous intent overwhelmed Qin Xiao in an instant, and he even lost his sight at that moment.

The pressure from the heavenly realm followed.

All living things tremble and all things lose their color.

Total loss of consciousness.

Nangong Huaxue's body shook violently, his legs and feet went limp and he was about to kneel on the ground.

A second before crawling, he propped up his body with his fists.

too exaggerated……

Nangong Huaxue looked grim, with cold sweat streaming down his face.

It felt like the internal organs were being squeezed into a ball.

Nangong Huaxue covered his chest with his hands. His heart was beating violently in his chest. The bones in his whole body were shaking unconsciously due to the pressure. His teeth kept chattering, making a "clucking" sound.

damn it……

Nangong Huaxue gritted her teeth, feeling a little annoyed with herself.

It was just pressure...but he was already so embarrassed.

Wang Ji was still standing, but his jaw was tightened, his brows were furrowed, and sweat was running down his jaw. It was obvious that he was in a very bad condition.

The two of them were just on the edge and their reactions were so violent, not to mention Qin Xiao who was in the center.

Qin Xiao's eyes went dark, his body trembled, and he was somewhat unsteady on his feet.

But he did not fall down, nor did he even shake violently. He just stood in front of the old man and let him vent his anger to his heart's content.

He's right...

Qin Xiao felt the protest from his internal organs and pursed his lips.

Endless pain engulfed him, but he couldn't fall down.

What the old man said was right. If it weren't for him, Mo Ze wouldn't have died...

Qin Xiao was breathing heavily and sweating profusely.

Every time I think of this, my heart aches uncontrollably, and sometimes I even want someone to cut it out.

I just didn't expect... that he would know all this.

Then why...

Is it just him who doesn't know?

Qin Xiao endured this pressure in a self-mutilating manner, raised his head and looked at the old man, his eyes were sad, but unusually firm.

He hasn't forgotten why he came here.

"Give that...child back."

Every time I say a word, I have to use nearly a thousand times more strength than usual.

"Is that kid so important to you? What about him?!"

The old man roared, took a step forward and grabbed him by the collar.

Qin Xiao faced those angry, questioning eyes, his dark pupils trembled slightly, and blood oozed from the corners of his mouth due to the sudden doubled pressure.

He spoke, his voice still steady.

"He is dead."

Qin Xiao emphasized the word "die" particularly strongly, staring at the eyes opposite him without even blinking.

"You...should...let it go."

Qin Xiao spoke with great difficulty, but his pronunciation was clear and his eyes were firm.

“Put it down…put it down?”

The old man was stunned at first, chewing over the two words again and again, tilting his head, seeming a little puzzled.

“Let go—hahaha, hahahahahaha—”

Finally, as if he was squeezed to the extreme, the old man suddenly burst into laughter, which was extremely crazy and sad.

"Put it down...you don't understand at all!!!"

The old man pushed Qin Xiao out. Qin Xiao staggered a few steps and barely managed to stand firm.

“You don’t understand at all!!”

The old man roared, and there seemed to be unbearable sorrow hidden beneath his furious shout.

"You don't understand at all! Do you know how helpless it was to watch him die? Do you know how weak I was at the time... so I could only hide my presence outside the encirclement and sneak in carefully, but I only saw the people who had benefited from his kindness in the past, their bodies stained with his blood, holding their bloody heads high above their heads in despair? You don't know!!"

As the old man spoke, he seemed to have seen some extremely terrifying scene. He held his head tightly, with unprecedented fear on his face.

"You know how it feels to be so weak that you can only watch his head being lifted up like a trophy and then trampled on like trash? Do you know?!"

"You know, because I was weak, I could only watch those people tearing his body apart like wild beasts, fighting for every part of his body, watching him being torn apart bit by bit..."

"Those people scrambled for his fur and surrounded him like hyenas. They thought that if they ate him, they would break through the bottleneck and achieve immortality...

"So those people sucked his blood, peeled off his fur, tore his flesh, pulled out his tendons, and chopped his bones... Not even a strand of hair was left..."

"You know these... these!! The feeling where you can only watch?! You know?!!!"

The old man's heart-wrenching roar echoed in his ears. Qin Xiao fell to the ground without knowing when, and covered one ear with one hand, seeming to be in great pain, and blood began to ooze out of his ear. Every word the old man said made his soul tremble.

Just thinking about that scenario was going to drive him crazy.
