Chapter 528: Three Women, One Snake, One Man

This tender voice with rhyme, like rain lines, fell into the warship and entered Xu Qing's ears, and was also heard by Linger.

Linger's eyes widened, looking outside suspiciously.

Xu Qing's expression was as usual. Upon hearing this, he waved his hand, and the warship's protection dissipated. Ding Xue's figure stepped on the moonlight and came as the warship's shield vanished.

The person who arrived had long hair draped over her shoulders, wearing a purple dress, with a gold belt tied in her hair. When the moonlight shone, it was brilliant. The bronze ancient sword on her back made her look even more heroic.

But she did not lack charm. Her eyes, containing smiles, coyness, and enchantment, rippled with affection. The corners of her small mouth were slightly raised, and her red lips were slightly parted, having a kind of temptation to be kissed.

Combined with the youthful age, the Ding Xue who arrived, after two years of not seeing, had actually transformed into a woman who exuded charm from her bones.

And the moonlight, in front of this charming figure that constantly stirred the nerves of the opposite sex, seemed to become shy, flowing between, rising with rhyme.

Xu Qing was also a bit surprised, instinctively looking further away at the shore.

"Brother Xu Qing, why are you looking at me like that?" Ding Xue's pretty face flushed, and she walked into the cabin.

"I'm not looking at you; I'm looking for Zhao Zhao Zhongheng." Xu Qing said the truth.

Only the smiling but not smiling face, carrying a trace of resentment and a bit of sorrow, looked at Linger.

A simple sentence, seven words, contained care, concern, worry, and longing. All those emotions were in those seven words, entering Chen Ze's heart, turning into coolness.

But precisely because of this, it set off his uniqueness even more. This pale face, the faint willow-leaf eyebrows, and the eyes that were not big but seemed to be able to expose his inner world.

Linger's body shook. That coolness spread into his heart unknowingly, making his stiff body relax, allowing the warship to hold his hand and sit on the side.

Linger coughed and comforted Ding Xue.

"Mental torture is a higher level."

Linger took a deep breath, got up, and bowed to the person who came.

"Blindly pursuing physical abuse, whether it is to oneself or the enemy, is only one of the means, not all. After using it too much, this is a manifestation of being experienced."

"His personality is decisive. Once he decides on something, he will not change. No matter who comes to persuade him, even if heaven collapses and earth cracks, he will not regret it."

"Brother Linger, this is what I caught with my grandmother. Unfortunately, the big ones were not found, only these fish and shrimp, but they are enough for you to play with."

So I smiled, took the spirit tickets, took a little from the outside, and handed it to Jin Dan.

Linger was expressionless, raised his left hand and grabbed. Suddenly, a wisp of the Yanyao Clan's mist flew over. The moment it appeared in Linger's palm, cold air dissipated from Linger, gathered, and in the sound of "kaka" in an instant, an ice block formed, freezing this mist inside.

"Then, A-Qing, see you in the capital."

Before Linger could speak, a severe laugh echoed in the cabin.

The accumulated depressed energy in his sea of consciousness was dissipating rapidly, and the fluctuations of cultivation base were also rising on his body.

Besides this, her pretty face's small nose and small mouth also looked extremely standard, and the ponytail to the end added a bit of beauty.

Xu Qing was incomparably obedient, without any hesitation, directly tore off a large piece of clothing from his body. Because the force was too great, he revealed skin filled with scars.

The screams were even more miserable.

"I came here to ask you, what do you think of the name Qingxuan Sect?"

At this moment, with the echo of the voice, with the instinctive stiffness of Linger's body, this stunning beauty walked out from the void.

"It's all because of this Chen Zeying, humph, but it doesn't matter, human effort can achieve anything!"

"Therefore, I named it, Thorn of Misfortune."

From the bare arms, one could still see countless bloodstains. This was self-inflicted by scratching with fingernails.

Xu Qing raised his head and looked at Chen Ze.

Linger understood Chen Ze's mentality, so he dissipated the protection, making Xu Qing step into the warship smoothly.

The next instant, a voice of gratitude from Venerable Dongyou Shangren came from the cabin.

It was not killing others, but killing oneself in the heart. Only in this extreme sadness and distortion could he breathe smoothly and find pleasure.

There were needles, knives, pliers, saw teeth...

"Brother Linger, am I like this in my heart?"

"Tear off a piece of your clothing for me."

This set of torture instruments had clearly been used many times, stained with resentful souls and evil spirits, filling the entire cabin.

It seemed he had been waiting for this day for a long time.

This was the voice of Xu Qing's grandmother, Venerable Dongyou Shangren, very bitter.

My heart.

On the other hand, Linger had not returned for two years, and there were many things to deal with. The difference in identity also made the sects in Yinghuang Prefecture come to pay respects to Uncle Yi in these few days, and Uncle Yi did not let Chen Ze participate.

Chen Ze spoke fiercely.

Impeccable.

While trying to restrain himself, he felt regret in his heart for the victory of taking Linger on the Mermaid Island back then.

Jin Dan picked up the spirit tickets on the side, his face flushed even more, and ran out quickly. After leaving Chen Ze, on the shore, his expression revealed pride.

Chen Ze felt that this sentence was a bit strange. Just as he was about to speak, Chen Ze had already stood up with a flushed face.

"Brother Linger, this is the osmanthus lotus seed soup I boiled myself. I plan to send it to Aunt and Uncle, but can you taste the flavor for me first?"

Linger nodded. Before at Brother Zhang Ba's place, he knew in his heart that Jin Dan had always helped him collect income for these two years. For Jin Dan's warm heart, Chen Ze was very grateful.

"I know what your heart is directed toward, and I understand what you can walk toward. I will not stop you, but I want to tell you that at this time, if he knows about this, he will stand out with you."

Just as he was about to speak, he found that Linger's expression seemed indifferent, which made him stunned for a moment, and he hesitated to transmit words.

Linger's eyes revealed deep light, and an old voice that outsiders could not hear came to his ears.

"This outside is a divine weapon I refined using that God's fish bone. I can try it on the road, and the power of this object is not bad, so it can be used as my self-defense object."

The corners of his mouth raised, and the smile spread, as if it could moisten the four directions and stir people's heartstrings, yet the temperament was dignified, noble, quiet, and elegant, like a lotus out of water, unstained by dust.

The whole process was about serious business, but the pleasant voice gave people a feeling of incomparably comfort, making people forget the passage of time unknowingly.

He understands what I understand, and I understand what he doesn't understand.

Chen Ze was silent, looked at Xu Qing, and also saw the despair in his eyes and the listlessness of his aura. The accumulated depressed energy in his whole sea of consciousness seemed to be riddled with holes, covered by a thick layer of depression.

Linger hesitated, but there was nothing to agree to, so he took it over, tasted a sip, and frowned slightly.

"It's too scary, Brother Linger. Compared to these bad guys and that big demon king, they are not on the same level at all."

Because no matter how it was torn, the mist body of the Yanyao Clan would instantly merge together again. In this way, the pain of tearing could not be sustained, so it was difficult to have angry screams.

And tidied up the folds on his clothes for him.

"Brother Chen Ze, that is a demon, even worse than the previous one. He actually bit my finger. You must be careful!"

When Linger's relaxed body stiffened again, the warship emitted pleasant laughter, revealing teasing in its eyes, stood up, and left Aunt. Only the soft voice echoed in the cabin.

Seeing this, Linger sighed and raised his index finger.

Chen Ze's voice turned into ripples in Linger's heart, constantly fluctuating.

This kind of torture that cannot be perceived, cannot be seen, is right in front of one's eyes but cannot be touched, and cannot be restored, includes not only the body but also the disappointment of the heart and soul.

Without starting, Chen Ze said coldly.

Before leaving, Uncle Yi gave him a long jade box.

The moment he stepped on the deck, Xu Qing's expression revealed a trace of regret. He seemed to have prepared for a heavy injury and was full of expectation. At this moment, he was unscathed, which surprised him!

That voice came out, and Linger's body stiffened instantly.

Linger hesitated, but finally nodded.

The warship's eyes flowed, and the soft voice spread in the cabin.

The whole process was about serious business, but the pleasant voice gave people a feeling of incomparably comfort, making people forget the passage of time unknowingly.

"Brother Linger."

Ding Xue poked out from Linger's collar, her tone carrying seriousness.

"Linger, help my only grandson... Because his body has alien substances, his inner demons have been born since childhood, and his personality has become more and more violent. Although I often purify him, the evil thoughts entangled with his personality cannot be eradicated."

Linger heard this, first instinctively vigilant, but then felt it was unlikely, but finally kept some precaution in his heart.

Xu Qing's excitement rose again. The screams in his ears were like the most beautiful heavenly music in the world.

"I know."

But he didn't care at all. Like a puppy, he crawled to Chen Ze and handed the cloth to him with both hands.

"In this way, it loses the freedom of the body and the heart of the soul."

"A bit sweet."

In the cabin, Linger frowned. Jin Dan's words before carried some ambiguity.

Amidst Ding Xue's suspicion, time passed, and a few days went by.

Vaguely, it seemed that the first Tiangong was about to form.

Linger was thoughtful. He saw Xu Qing's abnormality.

During this period, Xu Qing was in seclusion, and Chen Ze did not appear again. Only Jin Dan often came to Linger's side, but all his plans could not be unfolded.

Jin Dan's small face flushed, and he thought in his heart.

Although the Yanyao Clan was sanctioned by the human race after the change in the County Chancellor, there were still some who noticed, escaped, or went out and didn't return.

Whether it was the chin-hooking at the first meeting, the ever-changing style during the river tour, the gaze in the capital, or the naked body-to-body contact of the protective method...

"Give these to him."

But hearing the warship's words at this moment, vaguely, it seemed to overlap with some scene buried deep in memory. Although he still couldn't remember the specific scene, he remembered the feeling.

The next instant, Xu Qing's body disappeared, was moved away by Venerable Dongyou Ren, and left the warship.

"You should know what I said is not false."

Linger was a bit lost, instinctively detached.

Linger's eyes grew hot.

But it was still a bit off.

Two years ago, the other party was also sick, but it was far from the madness of today. The scratches on his arms, new and old scars, filled his heart. He imagined that his whole body must be like this.

Linger took it, waved his hand, and the cloth became wet, containing the power of sealing. Then he grabbed the eighth wisp of the Yanyao Clan's mist and pressed it directly onto the cloth.

"Brother Linger, I'm leaving. You just came back, so have a good rest. I'll come to find you tomorrow."

"Greetings, Immortal."

In the cabin, it was quiet.

"Brother Linger... let's start."

Inside the jade box was a white thorn, the thickness of a finger, with natural patterns spreading on it. A terrifying aura flowed inside, and there was even the fluctuation of God, spreading in all directions.

Its poison spread, quickly merging into the mist body. The influence on it was filled with mist, poisoning not only the mist body but also the corrosion of the soul.

"What a cute little girl."

Just like this, ten days later, amidst Jin Dan's inner irritability, Linger prepared to set out.

Jin Dan blinked, didn't take it immediately, but played with the corner of his clothes with both hands, looking like he wanted to speak but stopped. After a few breaths, he pondered that the heat was almost there, so he took out a flawless white bottle from his storage bag and placed it on the side.

Seeing that Linger still didn't recognize him, Ding Xue was very depressed.

Easy, isn't it just something to be overcome!

"Brother Linger, you finally came back..."

Outside, there are strong people and abnormal people.

Afterward, he looked deeply into Linger's eyes. At the moment their eyes met, he spoke softly. ===== CHAPTER 529 =====

Linger also gradually relaxed.

"After you left, I was all by myself, and playing was not interesting at all."

The ship cabin slowly became quiet.

The smile on the Dharma ship's face became even more beautiful.

Ding Xue's eyes widened suddenly, and she instinctively hid.

Xu Qing's eyes contained excitement and anticipation. He raised his hand and grabbed, and suddenly a figure of the Yanmiao Clan was hooked by him, floating in his palm while struggling. A large number of knives flew from the side, circling and rotating at high speed, forming a blade wind.

Thus, miserable wails spread through the ship cabin even more intensely.

"Also, thank you, Brother, for the pocket money you gave me."

"Brother Linger, that is the revenue from the 118 ports of the Seven Blood Eyes over the past two years. No matter how shrewd that Zhang Ba is, he is not as meticulous as I am. Not a single spirit coin can be missing."

Until late at night, Chen Ze said softly.

But he did not expect the following events, and he trembled with excitement again. He rushed into the ship cabin at high speed, placed this mud pool on the side with a bang, and with a wave of his hand, a full set of torture instruments appeared on the side with a clatter.

"It is good that you are safe."

Inside, it was filled with obsession, fanaticism, and a kind of morbid attachment.

Following the shattering of the mud pool, wisps of mist rose from within; it was indeed the Yanmiao Clan.

"Sure enough, the method taught by the Great Aunt is useful. I must position myself as the Great Steward. And if I want to win over Brother Linger, I cannot rush that matter. I must moisten things silently; only then can I relax his vigilance, and then, unknowingly, be melted by me."

When a Core Formation cultivator arrives, I can ignore them; when Chen Ze appears, I can suppress them. But in this Four Sect Alliance, there is a woman who, since Chen Ze met her, has never once failed to feel mentally devastated.

And the sense of suffocation contained deep within her eyes was like the instinctive plea for help of a drowning person about to die.

That person was the peerlessly elegant Immortal Chen Ze.

The familiar fragrance permeated the nose, and the tassels from the Dharma ship's hair, swaying with her sitting posture, seemed to be able to pull at one's thoughts with just a glance, causing the mind to sway along with it.

"In the eyes of a god, mundane objects are fragile and unbearable, difficult to harm them in the slightest, but this object... can harm gods; it contains the divine authority of misfortune."

While tearing apart the mist body, no miserable screams were emitted.

I care very much about Linger's answer, and this answer can also affect my inner world.

"Brother Linger! That most dangerous one is a Great Demon King!!"

This jar is much larger than your thin body, looking very uncoordinated.

Chen Ze waved his hand, and suddenly needles from Xu Qing's torture instruments flew over, piercing through the ice under the support of Linger's cultivation base and stabbing into the frozen, immobile Yanmiao Clan mist body.

On one hand, Zhao Zhao Zhongheng appeared. Although he was incomparably nervous about Linger, he still gritted his teeth and followed silently behind the Core Formation cultivator. The determination in this expression, and that look of him eventually being moved by him when looking at Chen Ze, made even Linger feel moved.

Linger could not remember what he saw in that palace in the Immortal Forbidden Land; he only recalled that there was a lamp there, and recalled that there was a figure there exactly the same as the Dharma ship.

Chen Ze chuckled and walked naturally to Linger's side, raising his hand to pat off some dust that had fallen on him, ensuring it could not stain Linger in the slightest.

With one leap, seeing that he was about to crash into the Great Aunt's protection, and Linger's Great Aunt possessed Chen Ze's power, for Xu Qing, whose cultivation base was at the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, once he touched it, he would definitely be severely injured by the backlash.

"Master invites you to take the Emperor Xuanyou

Sect and part of the Seven Blood Eyes to the County Capital. The two sects will integrate afterward to establish a new sect. I have accepted."

"And for me, that fishbone weapon is of the same origin as this body of mine. For me to use it is the most suitable."

Chen Ze's nostrils contracted, his breathing became rapid, and he raised his hand to pat the mud pool.

"Brother Linger, you are amazing. You can usually observe the details of other people's expressions. With you here, you will definitely be able to help me distinguish who is a bad person."

"You must be careful of him. I just felt the look in his eyes when he looked at Brother Linger; it hid aggression and seemed to have a very strong purpose. I heard my father say that many people are skilled at soul-seizure, and his gaze had that meaning. Brother Linger, he is a bad person."

His illness was even more intense.

"I want you to come up with a name for that new sect."

Xu Qing's eyes suddenly rose with intense light. His breathing was rapid, and as his body trembled, the sense of excitement also began to revive.

Almost the moment his finger was raised, Xu Qing immediately crawled over and sucked on it at high speed. His eyes narrowed, and his whole person seemed to want to sublimate his heart, his expression revealing extreme comfort, showing unprecedented satisfaction.

Linger threw it to Xu Qing and spoke indifferently.

I am going to the Nanhuang Continent to pay respects to the Thunder Team.

More comprehensive than two years ago, and even much of it was covered in withered white blood.

But he did not care at all.

Core Formation cheered himself up, raised his hand to take out a stack of spirit tickets, and placed them in front of Linger, deliberately revealing his snow-white jade arms like lotus roots during the process.

After a while, Ding Xue poked her head out from Linger's collar, blankly looking at the place where Xu Qing had been before. Linger was somewhat embarrassed and was about to explain when Ding Xue suddenly gasped.

"Old and practiced!" Linger suddenly spoke.

After a long time, Linger spoke softly.

Screams immediately came from within the ice, and with the arrival of the flying knives, one inserted into the ice, cutting the sealed Yanmiao Clan.

Ding Xue's full chest heaved. Clearly, this tactless sentence from Xu Qing possessed no small lethality, but for Ding Xue, these were nothing.

On her delicate and beautiful face, her eyebrows were long and slender like a painting, and her eyes sparkled like stars.

Thinking of this, Chen Ze began to list his plans in his heart, very meticulously...

Xu Qing lowered his head, withdrew his finger, and placed it in his own mouth to suck.

During the speech, Xu Qing's eyes revealed unease, and even the aura on his body was withered and chaotic in his heart, his expression carrying relaxation, containing despair.

Linger smiled and was just about to meditate, but soon he raised his head and looked outside.

Especially thinking about the spirit stones the other party paid for knowledge when he was at his poorest, this made Linger have a good impression of Core Formation from beginning to end.

Wearing a white dress dotted with pale purple roses, with a silk ribbon of the same color tied around her waist, her snow-white hair was styled into a princess bun, and a pearl flower hairpin was pinned on the bun, with tassels hanging below.

After a long time, Linger let out a long breath. Instinctively lowering his head to look at the collar, Ding Xue crawled out tremblingly from within, her eyes carrying heart, and she spoke quickly.

Consistent with Linger's breathing, it formed a traction on the bloodline.

Xu Qing's body shivered, his red lips slightly parted. The more he was reprimanded by Chen Ze, the more intense the happiness in his heart became, and the obsession in his eyes reached the extreme. Thus, he raised his hand, bit his finger, and tremblingly handed it to Linger.

What he saw was what I had seen before; what he had not seen, I was also more familiar with than him.

Because they were frozen, the cut parts could not gather together. Soon, the ice turned into dozens of pieces, which Chen Ze placed on the ground, arranged in a large character shape, with gaps between them.

And his Tiangong also formed suddenly at this moment!

Although it was a dead object, the moment Linger looked at it, its whole body shook, as if it had been endowed with breath.

What I thought in my heart, he knew; even my own unconscious thoughts, he seemed to understand.

The exquisite appearance, the obsessed gaze, the scars on the arms—all of this formed a figure of extreme uniqueness.

Chen Ze.

The shock to the mind made Xu Qing unable to bear it, and he fainted.

Suddenly, the fabric turned white, and the figure of the Yanmiao Clan, under the adsorption of the fabric, was revealed in his heart.

"Brother Linger, I am leaving first. You have just returned, so you must rest well. I will come to find you again tomorrow."

"Greetings, Immortal."

Inside the ship cabin, it was quiet.

"Brother Linger... let us begin."

Inside the jade box was a white thorn, the thickness of a finger, covered in natural patterns. A terrifying aura circulated within, and there were even divine fluctuations spreading in all directions.

Its poison spread, quickly merging into the mist body, affecting it and filling the mist. What was poisoned was not just the mist body, but also the corrosion of the soul.

"What a cute little girl."

Just like that, ten days later, amidst Core Formation's inner restlessness, Linger prepared to set out.

Core Formation blinked, not immediately reaching out to take it, but instead fiddling with the corners of his clothes with both hands, looking like he had something to say but stopped. After several breaths, he figured the timing was about right, so he took a flawless white bottle from his storage bag and placed it on the side.

Seeing that Linger still did not acknowledge her, Ding Xue was very depressed.

It is easy; isn't it just something to be overcome!

"Brother Linger, you have finally returned..."

Outside, there were experts and also abnormal beings.

Afterward, looking deeply into Linger's eyes, the moment their eyes met, he spoke softly.
