Volume 5: The Mystery of Shamo Chapter 70: You Know a Person's Face, Not His Heart
When this "Fire Phoenix Nirvana" appeared, both Wu Su and Elder Qingsong were stunned for a moment. It seemed that no one had expected that Yao Ji had quietly refined Sha Mo's unique skill to the seventh level!
In the thousands of years of Shamo's history, it seems that only their Shamo God Jianyi has reached this level... How did she do it?
Elder Qingsong did not seem to have much time to think about all these. He hurriedly used the protective spell, but at this moment, something strange happened. The flames that the fire phoenix spit out from its wings were about to reach his body, but suddenly, they circled and went out by themselves !
At this moment, not only Elder Qingsong, but even Yinglili himself was stunned for a moment...
What's going on? Has this "Fire Phoenix Nirvana" not yet been mastered? Or is it just an embroidered pillow, all show and no substance?
Only Yinglili herself knew the real reason. Her golden-brown pupils suddenly widened as she stared intently at Elder Qingsong's face. Then, her face turned ashen, and her silver teeth nearly broke as she gritted her teeth, "You're not Uncle Qingsong!"
Her abrupt words turned the already stunned Wu Su into stone. What did she say? Isn't this Uncle Qingsong?
He subconsciously looked up and looked again and again. He had seen the face in front of him for more than 20 years. There was no doubt that it was Uncle Qingsong. What did she mean by this?
If this isn't Uncle Qingsong, who else could it be?! He turned around and saw a flash of sadness in her eyes. She suddenly lowered her eyes, as if suppressing some emotion in her heart, and then trembled and said, "Why, why you?!"
"Junior sister, what did you mean by that just now?" Wu Su was a little confused.
"He is not the real Uncle Qingsong, he is just using Uncle Qingsong's mask. If I am not mistaken, he should be Uncle Qingchen." As soon as these words came out, it was like a bolt from the blue, leaving Wu Su speechless for a long time!
He hurriedly looked up at Uncle Qingsong. It was impossible. That was clearly Uncle Qingsong's face. How could it be Uncle Qingchen?
What?! Is this person Uncle Qingchen?
Wu Su suddenly raised his head, glanced at his junior sister behind him, and then glanced at his uncle in the void. He almost thought he had misheard, but he was surprised to find that the man did not deny it. Instead, he looked at them calmly, with a bit of approval in his eyes: "You girl, you are not too stupid."
At this moment, the clear voice that originally belonged to Master Qingsong suddenly became rhythmic. Ignoring the face, this voice was indeed Master Qingchen...
What is going on? !
Could he really be Uncle Qingchen? Why would he be disguised as Uncle Qingsong? And how did Junior Sister figure it out?
Wu Su's heart was in a mess at this time.
"Why?! Why you?!" Ying Lili subconsciously took a few steps forward, staring at Elder Qingchen in the void with burning eyes, and asked in a trembling voice. At this moment, her face turned pale in an instant, and she bit her lower lip tightly. It was obvious that her lips were trembling slightly.
She had always thought that even if the other three uncles wanted to kill her, this most amiable uncle would definitely want to protect her. However, reality slapped her hard in the face, reminding her of her naiveté and bad luck in choosing the right person. If it weren't for this fight just now, she would probably have been kept in the dark by him and would have foolishly believed that Uncle Qingchen, who had deified her that day, was a good person.
"Junior sister, what on earth is going on?!" Wu Su was concerned about another question at this time: how did the junior sister see all this? He stared at his junior sister with burning eyes.
"Yesterday, when I went to the Tianxuan Secret Realm, I tampered with Uncle Qingchen's soul." Pinglili's trembling voice slowly revealed the mystery. She lowered her eyes, as if trying to calm her chaotic mind...
"What on earth have you done?!" Wu Su turned around and looked at her intently.
Elder Qingchen, who was pretending to be Elder Qingsong, also looked at her with a look of ridicule, as if he was also very curious about what she had done to him that not only could she see through his identity, but also help him block her own attack? He was very clear that the sudden extinction of the "Fire Phoenix Nirvana" just now was not due to his own use of the protective spell, but the cause was the other party.
Ying Lili bit her lower lip and stopped talking. Suddenly, she snapped her fingers, and a circle of light golden light appeared faintly around Master Qingchen, who was originally floating in the air. Could it be that it was this circle of light golden light that had just stopped the "Fire Phoenix Nirvana"?
A sudden realization crossed Master Qingchen's face. "'Lingxu Jue'? You're truly quite the fool, girl. You were able to manipulate my soul like this without anyone noticing. It's a shame you've only just gotten yourself into trouble! Hahahaha, girl, you're still too naive!" He suddenly burst into laughter for no apparent reason, not knowing if he was mocking her naiveté or celebrating his own good fortune. The laughter was particularly piercing in the empty Shamo Temple.
After hearing the "Lingxu Jue", Wu Su finally understood. This seemed to be a unique skill that only existed in the legend of Shamo and has now been lost. It is said that the person who performs this skill can mark the consciousness or soul of anyone he wants to protect. As long as the person is within a distance of ten feet, all attacks made by the caster will be ineffective against the person being cast.
This could explain everything that had just happened. It turned out that it was not because Junior Sister's "Fire Phoenix Nirvana" was not perfected, but because she had used the "Lingxu Jue" on Senior Uncle Qingchen in that mysterious realm yesterday, so she was trapped in this cocoon today.
Wu Su was actually aware that his junior sister would protect Senior Uncle Qingchen in this way. Back then, it was this Senior Uncle Qingchen who single-handedly placed her on the altar, and he seemed to have always been protective of her.
However, in the end, the person she wanted to protect turned out to be the real enemy. For the junior sister, such a blow is probably more hurtful than the failure of "Fire Phoenix Nirvana".
He frowned deeply and called out softly: "Yao Ji..."
But he didn't know how to start the conversation. It turned out that Master Qingchen was the real person behind the scenes. This blow was almost fatal to him.
"Master Qingchen, why you?!" It was as if Pinglili hadn't heard Wusu's call. She just kept asking the same question over and over again, "Why you?! I originally thought that even if the other Masters wanted to kill me, you would be the last one left to protect me. Why you?"
"A dying person doesn't need to know too many problems." Elder Qingchen was standing in the void at this time. He pointed casually, and there was a thunderclap above his head. Gong Lili subconsciously took a few steps back. At this time, the sky above the temple was suddenly cracked into a space-time crack. At the same time, a ray of lightning struck from the crack and fell on the place where Gong Lili had originally stood.
Even if ten or twenty years had passed, Yan Lili would never forget that face! And the mark on the back of that person's hand would never be forgotten!
That's Zhuo Wei!
When she and Mo Yi first met in the present world that day, the Nayu man who was chasing her!
How did he get here?!
What shocked Gong Lili even more was that behind him, human figures continued to emerge. They were a group of ghostly beings!
What made Gong Lili gasp was that on the backs of those people's hands, without exception, there was a faint mark of a dark-black Vermillion Bird flying!
It was the Nayu people! Why did the Nayu people suddenly appear here? Moreover, they were all gathered around Elder Qingchen. Looking at Elder Qingchen's expression at this time, he actually looked a little proud. Could it be that all this was within his expectations?
Could it be that he had colluded with the Nayu people from the very beginning? Or were the Nayu people actually following his instructions?
Where's Mo Yi? Ying Lili suddenly thought of Mo Yi and had a bad feeling in her heart.
However, a thought flashed through her mind, and she felt something was wrong. Her eyes quickly swept over the group of unfamiliar Nayu people. As expected, she didn't recognize these people except the leader Zhuo Wei. And based on her feeling, these people did not seem to be the Nayu people who had gained eternal life.
The Nayu people who had gained eternal life that she knew of did not seem to be among them. Not to mention Mo Yi, even the three of Jiang Wu were not among them, let alone Mo Yi's father.
Suddenly, Ping Lili seemed to understand that these people were the Nayu people who had fallen into the cycle of reincarnation in this world!
But how did they get together with Master Qingchen? She suddenly remembered that when she and Mo Yi traveled through time, they relied on the guidance of the Nether Butterfly of the Shamo Clan. Could it be that Master Qingchen used the Nether Butterfly to bring them back?
Wait, Gong Lili suddenly thought of another more important question. Could it be that it was Uncle Qingchen who revealed the matter of the Heavenly Stone to the Nayu people, which led to the Sha Mo War?
Before she could say anything, Wu Susen's cold voice echoed in her ears: "Master Qingchen, have you colluded with the Nayu people?! Or did you betray Sha Mo five hundred years ago?! Did you let the wolf into the house?!"
