Chapter 234: Hundred-foot-high cliff and thousand-pour flaming waterfall 2

Xie Lian was silent for a long time. The handle of the long-handled knife was burning red. Mu Qing yelled and let go of one hand. He hung on with the other hand for a while, but he didn't dare to hold on any longer and grabbed it again. But white smoke was already coming out of his palms. Although they were far away, the people here seemed to smell the smell of burnt meat.

Hua Cheng casually released a silver butterfly, which flapped its wings and flew several feet away. Before it reached one-third of the distance to Mu Qing, it turned into a wisp of silver mist and disappeared in the air.


Xie Lian knew that he was trying to show him that the Undead Butterfly was of no help and that it was a dead end, not worth risking his life for.

Mu Qing also saw the process of the silver butterfly disappearing, and his expression gradually became desperate.

He understood. Now, firstly, no one was able to save him, and secondly, no one believed him. Under the premise that he had repeatedly stepped on landmines, Xie Lian would not risk his life to come and help him.


However, despite despair, he was still unwilling to give up. Mu Qing gritted his teeth and shouted, "You don't have to believe me, but I will never fall like this!"

As he spoke, he exerted more force on his hands, as if he wanted to spin in the air and stand on the hilt of the knife. Unexpectedly, his body had just risen a few inches when it suddenly sank again!

Mu Qing looked down, and his pupils reflected countless vengeful spirits that had melted into blood red. Their twisted faces and limbs were stuck to his legs and body, pulling him down!

These vengeful spirits were originally dissolved in the flowing magma. They suddenly emerged, hanging one after another under his lower body. They were extremely heavy and hot, adding fuel to the fire and making things worse. Mu Qing was going crazy: "Get out!!!"

In the past few hundred years, he had been on the verge of death before, but that was because he was seriously injured. Being buried in the lava was a thousand times more horrible than dying from injuries. He couldn't accept the thought that he would turn into a wisp of smoke like a lifeless dead butterfly, leaving no trace.


Finally, Mu Qing's hands reached their limit, and his ten fingers loosened slightly, and he could no longer hold on.


There was a gap under the knife - he fell!

A figure fell towards the blazing pool of fire below: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

However, although he screamed miserably, his body fell for a distance and then suddenly stopped in the air and hung in mid-air!

Mu Qing was still in shock, his scalp was numb, but his instinctive reaction was still there, and he quickly touched his body. It turned out that a white silk was wrapped around his waist.

Of course it was Ruo Xie. However, the palace where Xie Lian lived was not close to the cliff where he fell. Ruo Xie couldn't find it before, so how could she catch him after he fell for a while?


Mu Qing looked up and was surprised to find that Xie Lian was not on the roof of the palace at all - he was right above his head.

Mu Qing had nailed the long sword into the rock before, and only held on to the hilt for a while. But Xie Lian was now half-kneeling on the hilt!

Xie Lian quickly retracted Ruo Xie while looking down. Seeing that he was safe and sound, he heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Fortunately, fortunately, we made it in time.”

Mu Qing murmured, "...Your Highness the Crown Prince?"

The moment just now was too exciting, so exciting that his mind was still a little confused. Such a long distance, with rolling magma in the middle and no other foothold, Xie Lian could only jump halfway at most, how did he get here?

In the distance, Feng Xin's voice came: "Your Highness! Are you all right?"

Mu Qing looked in the direction of the sound. Only Hua Cheng and Feng Xin were standing on the roof of the palace. Hua Cheng crossed his arms and stared at this side, as if to make sure Xie Lian was safe. He didn't care about anything else. In the center of the straight line between the palace and the point where he fell off the cliff, a pitch-black long sword stood coldly in the endless red magma.

Heart!

So that's it! Mu Qing finally understood how Xie Lian got here.

With Xie Lian's jumping ability, he could only jump half the distance at most, and could not jump directly from the safe roof of the palace to the cliff point to save him. Therefore, Xie Lian threw Fang Xin out first, placed the sword in the flames as a foothold, and then used Fang Xin as a starting point to jump onto his sword, and at the critical moment, threw Ruo Xie out and barely pulled him back.


Xie Lian said, “I have been trying to think of a solution just now. There is really nothing useful here, so it took some time. You are too impatient. Don’t do it rashly. It will make you fall faster.”

Mu Qing originally thought that Xie Lian’s silence meant that he was hesitating whether to save him, but it turned out that he was thinking about how to save him. Fortunately, the situation was so critical just now that Xie Lian was able to think calmly.

The beads of sweat on his forehead became more dense.

As soon as he looked up, Xie Lian extended a hand to him and said with a smile, “Anyway, although it’s a little late, it’s not too late, right?”

“…”

Maybe it was because he had been holding the knife handle for too long, but Mu Qing felt his arm was extremely heavy and couldn’t lift it. Xie Lian reached his hand down further and said, “Get up.”

Mu Qing finally grabbed his hand.


His whole arm was trembling slightly. Xie Lian exerted his strength and pulled him up. The two of them stood on the hilt of Mu Qing's long sword. Xie Lian turned around, waved to the roof, and said, "Sanlang, it worked!"

Hua Cheng said: "Okay, brother, come back now, immediately!"


Xie Lian replied, “Okay, I’ll be right back!” He then turned to Mu Qing and asked, “Can you still dance? If not, I can take you.”

Mu Qing moved his lips and said, "I..."

Xie Lian observed his expression and said decisively, "I'll take you." As he spoke, he grabbed his back. In the past, Mu Qing would have rolled his eyes secretly and told him not to grab him like that, saying it was disrespectful, but now, he couldn't say anything.

Xie Lian was about to leap up, but at that moment, they both suddenly felt their feet slip at the same time.

As luck would have it, the long knife nailed into the rock did not loosen earlier or later, but just at this moment!

Hua Cheng's face turned pale and he said, "Brother!!!"

This time, there were two figures, falling towards the red pool of fire together. Even as the fire burned his buttocks, Xie Lian was still able to think quickly and said, "It's okay!" He flipped several times in the air, grabbed the long sword in the air, used both hands, and nailed it into the rock again!

With a clang, the fire beads flew everywhere, extremely brilliant. Outside of Xie Lian's protective aura, these fire particles looked like shattered gold sand, but if this layer of protective aura disappeared, a single particle could burn a hole through a person alive!

Ruo Xie mentioned Mu Qing, and Xie Lian said to him seriously, "This sword can't bear the weight of two grown men for too long. We can't go on like this. Only one of us can stay here."

Mu Qing came back to his senses and said, "You mean..."

Xie Lian said, “Don’t stay.”

“……???”

Mu Qing’s pupils shrank slightly, but before he could say anything, Xie Lian grabbed him, threw him upwards, and shouted, “Watch carefully!”

Mu Qing was thrown over the cliff by him and found himself flying towards where Fang Xin was standing. He calmed himself, flipped in the air, and landed on the hilt of Fang Xin's sword.

At this point, he finally understood why Xie Lian threw him up first.

Because, at this distance, maybe Xie Lian could jump over the handle of the knife that was moved down several feet. But he couldn't.

This distance was too far for him. He was able to get up here thanks to Xie Lian's throw!

Feng Xin broke out in a cold sweat and said, "Fortunately, Your Highness, you reacted quickly!"

Hua Cheng looked solemn and said to the people below: "Brother! If you don't come back, I will go down to find you directly!"

His tone was full of warning. Xie Lian hurriedly said, “I’ll be coming up soon! The situation is not bad, it’s not difficult to deal with. I can jump over by myself, so don’t come down.”


Hua Cheng's expression finally eased a little, but he still stared at that place. Feng Xin looked at him and couldn't help but said, "...It's quite unexpected."

Hua Cheng didn't even turn around, and asked without any curiosity: "What."

Feng Xin scratched his hair and said, "I thought you had a lot of opinions about Mu Qing and thought he was not worth saving. You would oppose Your Highness saving him and not let him go."

Hua Cheng then looked at him and said, "Half right and half wrong."

"ah?"

Hua Cheng said: "What you said before is correct. I really think he is not worth saving. What happens to him is none of my business."

Seeing his nonchalant expression, Feng Xin was ashamed: "You are too direct!"

And it’s even more embarrassing to think that maybe this person has the same attitude towards himself in his heart!

Hua Cheng sneered, paused, and then said: "But, His Highness, only he can decide what to choose, and I will never object."

“…”

Feng Xin had never heard such words before. Men wouldn’t say such words to women, let alone men to men. He felt that if Xie Lian heard it, it would be terrible. He didn’t know what expression to show, so he could only say, “…Ah. That’s it.”

Hua Cheng turned his head and stared at Xie Lian who was observing and thinking about countermeasures in the flames. He smiled slightly and said, "Besides, I knew he would do that."

Over there, Xie Lian said, “Mu Qing, hurry up to the roof and don’t run away. We can talk about anything later.”

Mu Qing realized that if he didn't leave Fang Xin, Xie Lian would have nowhere to go. He forced himself to think calmly and prepared to go back to the roof. Unexpectedly, just as he stood up, Xie Lian below suddenly said, "Who?!"

Xie Lian stood on the sword, silently gathering strength, when suddenly, the waterfall of fire behind him parted, and a pair of hands stretched out from the waterfall and suddenly grabbed him.

That thing had clearly come out of the Fire Falls, but its hands were terribly cold. Xie Lian shuddered and heard Hua Cheng say from above: “Your Highness?!”

The hands tightly embraced Xie Lian, and took him down from the knife. Xie Lian was stunned, while the people above saw clearly what grabbed him from behind.

The man was dressed in white and had a mask on his face that looked half crying and half smiling, as if he was happy and sad at the same time.

White without form!

Ruo Xie sensed danger and flew up and passed in front of Mu Qing. Mu Qing subconsciously grabbed it, but the force from the other end of the white silk was too strong, and instead of holding it, it pulled him down.

Xie Lian was falling rapidly amidst the flying sparks. He heard that thing laughing in his ear, “Hahahahahaha… Naive! Too naive, Xianle! Do you think a happy ending with the best of both worlds can come so easily?”

There was a scorching heat wave below, but his heart was filled with horror. In the midst of the ice and fire, Xie Lian looked up and saw a red shadow approaching in the fire and light that filled the dome above.

Huacheng also jumped down!

There's a magma pool underneath!
