Chapter 311 Abandoned
……
From the moment Fu Chen fell, Suikong's spies immediately evacuated the scene and delivered the news to Helian Shi.
Helian Shi was in Yinchen. When he first heard the news, it was like a bolt from the blue. His ears were buzzing and his mind went blank.
"Uncle..."
Crystal clear tears slowly overflowed from his distracted eyes. He turned around staggeringly and ran towards the palace deep inside.
In spring, flowers are in full bloom, colorful butterflies are flying, and broken jade beads are jumping among the swaying branches and leaves, with mottled green shades.
On the path, Helian Shi was in a daze and looked extremely depressed.
He pushed open the door of the temple, and there was an extremely heavy creaking sound.
"Helendai!!!"
His eyes were anxiously searching for his elder sister. He was terrified and his heart ached as if it was being gnawing at by countless ants.
Finally, the beaded curtain was lifted, and Helian Dai walked out from the inner room holding a pile of books. She glanced at the young man with cold eyes, and then ignored him. She walked to the table, sat down, and started reading.
Helian Shi walked quickly to the table, propped up his arms, and squeezed out every word from between his teeth, "My uncle is dead."
In an instant, Helian Dai's movement of turning the pages of the book suddenly froze.
"My uncle was abandoned. It must be because our Chi Zhao's action did not satisfy them..."
"It's not my uncle who should be damned, but me... I lost the Xuanyuan Sword..."
"Tell me, is it my turn next... I am sorry to my uncle, I am..."
He was trembling as if in a nightmare, and his broken words were filled with fear that penetrated deep into his bones.
It was as if there was a monster in the abyss staring at him, opening its bloody mouth and ready to devour him at any time.
"That's enough Helian Shi! Calm down first!"
Helian Dai shouted loudly and slapped the table with her hand, "Bang——"
The table was broken into pieces and the books were scattered all over the floor.
The noise startled the young man, he looked up blankly and kept hitting his head with his hands.
"Yes... calm down... I need to stay calm and not lose my composure."
Helian Dai was irritated, her brows furrowed, and her face showed a desperate determination:
"The result of this fight is destined to be that only the winner can survive, you, me, her, the loser will be dealt with, isn't this already known?"
"Why are you afraid? Instead of being afraid, why not do something to survive?"
Hearing this, Helian Shi shook his head repeatedly, tears welling up in his eyes: "No... No... I'm not afraid of death, I'm just afraid of dying at their hands..."
Helian Dai shouted coldly: "Then you have to climb to the top and defeat me and Helian Ran, otherwise the crime of losing the Xuanyuan Sword alone is enough to make you die thousands of times!"
"..."
The boy's Adam's apple rolled weakly, and he closed his eyes with a desolate look. He turned and walked out, his voice barely audible: "Sorry... I lost my composure. Thank you for today."
He walked out of the door, raised his head and squinted his eyes to feel the warm sunlight falling. The fragile sadness disappeared without a trace. His expression was fierce and there were no tears in his eyes.
The wind blew into the hall from the open door, bringing with it a refreshing scent of flowers.
In the hall, Helian Dai slowly bent down and picked up the fallen book with her slender fingers.
Under the thick eyelashes, the dark watery eyes seemed frozen in ice, without a trace of emotion.
There was no previous irritability and solemnity at all.
To win.
In this fight, you must use all means and be the winner.
for sure.
……
Hanzhou Underground Palace.
Pu Ran stood in front of the gate that blocked the road and said to Yu Zhixu, "Go and see if there is any mechanism. If there is, go and break it."
Yu Zhixu felt a sense of stagnation in his chest.
You really treat me as a tool.
Pu Ran: "Didn't you inherit the legacy of the Yu family's ancestor? Your mechanical skills must be unrivaled in the world, so only you can do it."
The best in the world.
Yu Zhixu: “…”
Okay, I was coaxed.
He shook his sleeves, letting the breeze rustle, and walked to the door to observe carefully.
Not to mention, there is a mechanism on this door. You can't force your way in, otherwise the entire underground palace will be destroyed.
"This is the mechanical technique of my Yu family."
Yu Zhixu put his hands on the door, knocking on something.
Thousands of years ago, the founder of the Yu family was being hunted down. It was the then-Master of Tianyu Pavilion who stepped forward to rescue him and protect the founder for the rest of his life.
The ancestor was so grateful that he not only built the Demon Locking Tower for him, but also created this exquisite underground palace.
Apart from the Yu family, only the pavilion masters of all generations knew how to enter the underground palace.
However, the method to reach the highest level of the Demon Locking Tower has been lost in the pavilion. Because the rune stone guarded therein is too important, the first pavilion master did not want anyone to obtain it, so he concealed the method to the top and only passed down the key.
The founder made secondary preparations and passed down the method in the Yu family.
If one day in the future, a pavilion master wants to enter, he just needs to take the key and find the heir of the Yu family.
"boom--"
The mechanism was activated and the door opened with a bang.
The two looked at each other and walked in together.
The first half was a complex maze-style structure, with winding walls that kept changing positions, disrupting the route they had memorized and forcing the two into dead ends time and time again.
"Fifth Senior Brother——"
Pu Ran Na shouted loudly.
"Yin Chuanci——"
"Where are you? Say something, please."
There was only her echo in the maze.
After exploring for half a day, Yu Zhixu's eyes suddenly lit up, and it was obvious that he had found the pattern of the mechanism's changes.
He stood there pondering, conceiving of the map of the entire maze in his mind, and then deduced according to the changes in the rules, and soon came up with a cracked version of the new map.
He grabbed Puran's wrist and took complicated, winding steps.
"Come with me."
"Kacha kacha——"
"Boom, boom, boom -"
The mechanisms were operating and the walls were moving, making people dizzy and dizzy.
Yu Zhixu's eyes, however, were clear, as if filled with scattered pearls, gorgeous and beautiful.
He walked with firm steps, holding Pu Ran's hand, slowly and steadily through the ever-changing narrow path, running towards the light of Qinghui bit by bit.
The exit is right in front of you!
Yu Zhixu: “We’re here.”
The two finally walked out of the first half of the maze. As long as they pushed open the door in front of them, they would enter the second half of the underground palace.
Puran clapped his hands like a seal and praised him sincerely: "Oh~ Then you are really great!"
Bringing you here was the wisest decision!
He was originally happy to be praised, but somehow, the other party's words always made him feel a bit uncomfortable.
Then you are awesome.
Feeling a bit... hermaphroditic?
Yu Zhixu sighed, laughed in frustration and helplessness, and replied sincerely: "Then I really thank you for praising me."
Pu Ran looked suspicious: "Are you trying to trick me?"
Yu Zhixu: “?”
How dare you say that?
I also want to ask if you are playing tricks on me.
He raised his lips expressionlessly: "No."
At the same time, he reached out and pushed the door open.
But the scene behind the door immediately stunned them both.
Are you sick? ? ?
