Chapter 358
Chen Xi Yuan learned the young man's movements and patted the statue's chin.
"Is this sturdy."
Li Zhuiyuan: "It's no problem to lock two more."
A smile appeared on Chen Xi Yuan's face, and she said bluntly:
"That's good, I can't beat him."
This sentence has another meaning, that is, she can still fight a few moves.
Before, it was indeed only Chen Xi Yuan who could barely catch the old Daoist priest's moves.
"Little brother, actually you are not sure he is really hiding outside, right?"
"Hmm."
"Hey~"
Chen girl has learned to be obedient now, starting to say her inner thoughts in reverse, and the effect is very obvious.
"Buzz! Buzz. Buzz!"
The statue had a slight tremor, some debris rolled down, but overall, it was still stable.
Li Zhuiyuan raised his head and looked upward.
The white light in the statue's eyes had gradually faded, because the white magma was continuously injecting downward. At this time, those eyes were the only channel outside to observe the inside.
"Brother Runsheng..."
Chen Xi Yuan: "I'll come!"
Li Zhuiyuan nodded.
Chen Xi Yuan grabbed the young man's arm, jumped up from the air, then stepped on the statue's lips and nose all the way up, and landed on the eyelid.
It was very spacious here, like a corridor.
When Li Zhuiyuan just turned around and looked inside, the old Daoist priest's figure appeared right in front of him.
Chen Xi Yuan immediately unfolded her domain, looking vigilant.
Li Zhuiyuan: "It's okay, he can't get out."
The old Daoist priest should have also seen the human shadow outside. At this time, he was covered in flames, and his beard, Daoist robe, and whisk were all burning.
The magma was still in the rising stage, although it hadn't submerged him yet, the environment inside the statue at this time could be called terrifyingly harsh.
The old Daoist priest frantically bombarded the "window" in front of him.
He was tricked in by the young man, and now he had to be watched by the young man for "execution". The fear of death and the hatred for the young man made him fall into a state of hysteria.
But this place was the most solid place of the entire statue at the beginning of the design.
The old Daoist priest hit a bit elsewhere before, which could make the statue tremble slightly. He attacked here, and the outside of the statue didn't react at all.
However, who could remain calm in this situation?
Li Zhuiyuan's gaze fell on the old Daoist priest's whisk, looking at the whisk that had already burned halfway, the young man frowned slightly.
This is definitely a good thing. It looks like a heritage utensil at a glance. Recalling the scene when the old Daoist priest used it, it could add a considerable degree of blessing to the technique and force.
It's a pity, this thing definitely cannot be preserved. Its value is not in its material, but in the delicate formations and restrictions embedded inside, which have actually been destroyed at this moment.
The jade pendant on the old Daoist priest's waist was emitting blue light, covering his whole body, trying his best to resist the scorching heat, but this was just a drop in the bucket, and dense cracks had appeared on the jade pendant.
Li Zhuiyuan's gaze finally fell on that gourd.
This thing seems to be able to withstand this high temperature, and there is no sign of damage yet.
If it can withstand the swallowing of this white magma next, he can pick it back from the ruins.
The whisk, jade pendant, and gourd are the three most precious utensils on the old Daoist priest. Getting one is already a huge gain.
Of course, the biggest gain is to suffocate the old Daoist priest here.
It is only in the Long Wang ancestral home that there is such a special building, making the existence of the old Daoist priest's level helpless. But even so, Li Zhuiyuan couldn't carry this building everywhere.
If he didn't trick the old Daoist priest in here to solve him, he would definitely be a big trouble if he kept following silently in the dark.
Next, the old Daoist priest began to use various means, wanting to escape, taking out all kinds of talisman papers, taking out various small objects, and swallowing many pills.
But gradually, he lost his heart. His Daoist robe had been completely scorched, like a layer of scorched skin, tightly attached to his body.
The magma below was rising higher and higher, and he had no more space to move and dodge, and dense holes had appeared on his face.
One of the old Daoist priest's hands slapped in front of Li Zhuiyuan.
His eyes were filled with complex emotions.
His lips, which had long turned black, continuously opened and closed. Although the sound could not be transmitted, Li Zhuiyuan could understand what he was saying from the other party's mouth shape.
"Whose demon are you?"
The previous demon was to be able to make himself attack justifiably; now the demon is an adjective.
Just now, he saw clearly that Chen Xi Yuan unfolded her domain.
The inheritor of the Long Wang Chen family could willingly stand behind the young man.
Combined with the young man's series of calculations against him, leading him to fall into such an end.
With this temperament, means, ability, and age, once given time to continue growing, the entire Jianghu might be set off by him.
He really wanted to know the young man's identity and wanted to die clearly.
Li Zhuiyuan didn't react.
The old Daoist priest felt that the other party didn't understand what he wanted to ask. He simply retracted his hand, took a few steps back, and began to perform the door ritual. 【358
Chen Xiyuan: "Bixia Sect."
The old Daoist priest has more and more fire holes on his body, yet he insists on completing the sect etiquette.
Li Zhuiyuan: "Tell me your birth date."
Li Zhuiyuan still does not move.
Li Zhuiyuan does not resent the top forces of various families gathering people to collectively attack the Yu family; if this abscess that is the Yu family is not lanced early, it will inevitably lead to even greater disasters later on.
But after they entered the Yu family, they began to take action against the younger generation of river-walkers by utilizing the environment and mechanisms here.
Even if there is the factor of the river water pushing things along here, the ones who ultimately made the decision were they themselves.
Li Zhuiyuan does not acknowledge such martial arts seniors, and such people are not qualified to have him return their courtesies.
The youth is truly fortunate now that the old lady at home is indeed wise.
On the surface, she refused to participate in this matter on the grounds that the Qin and Liu families do not lack heritage, but in reality, she must have divined a hint of the heavenly secrets in advance.
If she had really sent Liu Yi or Qin Shu here, given the family style of the Qin and Liu families...
No,
Liu Yi, that is hard to say.
Zhao Yi is now fortunate that it was Qin Shu and not Liu Yi who came to hold him accountable back then.
If Liu Yi had come, with her skill in using poison, combined with this thick, pitch-black night, she would likely have killed as many other families' river-walkers as possible within the scope allowed by the rules.
Therefore, all along, the old lady has only let Qin Shu go out to handle matters, keeping Liu Yi by her side.
Thus, if someone had to be sent, it would certainly be Qin Shu; Qin Shu would definitely not take action against young river-walkers, and furthermore, according to Qin Shu's temper, he might even directly clash with those old things who intended to make a move.
Inside, the old Daoist priest waits and waits, and seeing that the youth still does not move, he also understands the youth's meaning.
He reveals a miserable smile.
Flames burst from his mouth, and his entire body falls into the white magma below, disappearing from sight.
The magma continues to rise until it completely fills the internal environment of the statue.
Chen Xiyuan suddenly speaks: "Fortunately, my grandfather didn't send anyone from the family here. My grandfather said that while the family's ancestral property is wealthy, the seeds of the descendants are not very good."
Li Zhuiyuan: "Let's go down; this place is about to crack."
Chen Xiyuan grabs the youth's shoulder, lifts her leg to kick the "eye," and the two slide backward.
At the other eye nearby, Runsheng, Tan Wenbin, and Lin Shu You have also climbed up early to watch the show.
Seeing that Brother Xiaoyuan is coming down, the three brothers also immediately go down.
After landing, Lin Shu You laughs: "Inside here, it's like the Eight Trigrams Furnace of the Supreme Venerable Sovereign."
Tan Wenbin: "Only, what's being refined inside isn't the Great Sage."
"Crack... crack... crack..."
On the exterior of the statue, cracks appear one after another.
Except for Li Zhuiyuan, everyone is startled.
"It's fine, it won't overflow; this is her representative work."
That Yu family mechanism master designed this tower for the day when someone would eventually destroy it.
This shows that among the Yu family descendants, someone has appeared who can resonate with her in the way of mechanism arts.
The outer wall falls away rapidly, revealing a white crystal, still the face of that woman, but appearing more delicate and beautiful.
