The villain's daily corpse collection
Chapter 173 Double Choice (Part )
Inside the City Lord's Mansion, the Wutian Tower shook violently. The people who stayed in the courtyard looked towards the tower in surprise, wondering if they were terrified that their wishes could not be fulfilled, or worried that the tower would be affected by the collapse.
There is still half a quarter left until the You hour.
As soon as the dinner begins, everyone's wish will come true with the reopening of Wutan Tower, and they don't want anything to go wrong.
According to legend, Wutian Tower had never tilted or collapsed before, and today's shaking was also unprecedented. Those guarding the door of the building had no idea what was going on inside. They looked at each other, waiting for the person in charge of the City Lord's Mansion to come out and settle the situation.
However, no one showed up. Instead, all the dreams in my mind and eyes were shattered into dust as the earth continued to shake.
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-"
The servants of the City Lord's Mansion stood there, motionless, as stiff as servants, and then there was a sound of earth collapsing. The servants' bodies were like yellow sand and thick soil, all collapsing and falling to the ground as if being manipulated, and each of them formed a small mound of earth.
When the wind blew, the eerie white bones buried in the loess were exposed, but the number was not consistent, and most of them had lost their skulls.
One moment, these people were living, considerate waiters. The next moment, they looked like nameless wild corpses that had been dug out of a pit long dead and turned into ashes.
The situation got out of control, everyone was screaming and running around, bumping into the candlesticks and starting a fire. A series of chain reactions turned the former glory and tranquility of the City Lord's Mansion upside down.
Many people rushed to the door. They didn't know when the door of the City Lord's Mansion was closed. No matter how hard they knocked, the door did not open as usual.
The crowd was in panic, running around like headless flies, and some even knelt on the ground and begged God for mercy...
Suddenly, the ground of the City Lord's Mansion continued to tremble, and there was a loud roar, as if something had collapsed. The door suddenly opened, and the people who were asking for help at the door fled out of the City Lord's Mansion like flying.
Finally, the bustling and prosperous mansion was empty, and the door of Wutan Tower slowly opened.
Everyone who entered the building came out safely. The leader said goodbye to his team of more than a dozen people. Jun Zhao responded to them and watched them leave.
Wang Wei and Huo Feng walked out slowly from behind. Wang Wei closed her eyes and Huo Feng supported her from the side.
"What happened just now? Did you get your things?"
Only then did Jun Zhao turn her gaze to Wang Wei. She suddenly opened her eyes, and blood red spread in her pupils.
This look startled Jun Zhao. Since he recovered his memory, Jun Zhao recalled that Wang Wei, whom he saw in the mortal world, had eyes that were as gray as a cloudy day.
"your eyes……"
"I found it, I succeeded." Wang Wei raised the corner of his mouth and put down the hand pressing the acupoints outside the meridians. "Congratulate me, my old friend."
"What happened just now? What did you do? Why did the statue collapse?" Jun Zhao asked.
"Now that we have got the things, why bother about the details?" Wang Wei said as he walked out of Wutan Tower.
Huo Feng followed closely behind, but he didn't actually participate much, and he didn't know what happened. He stayed outside to guard Wang Wei's body until she woke up.
However, when he woke up, the statue in the Wutan Tower was collapsing. Fortunately, the other people were hiding in a relatively safe place and were not affected by the collapsed fragments of the statue.
Jun Zhao looked at her back, then turned back to look at the rubble on the ground. The huge red line wrapped around the statue looked like gurgling blood.
Finally, he only remembered some crisp sounds of cracks and the statue was about to collapse. He felt something was wrong and immediately asked everyone to evacuate.
When they fled to the door, the statue fell to the ground with a loud bang, breaking into countless huge pieces of stone that hit the ground, which made him feel a little scared.
Moreover, when he looked back at the statue, he actually felt that the statue's appearance had changed slightly.
"Did you get the artifact?" Jun Zhao still refused to give in.
"Of course I got it."
After several people walked out of the City Lord's Mansion, everything here began to disappear. When they looked back, only the Wutan Tower where they had stayed was left.
The top of this building leads to the ground. After they left, the sealed stairs above were all opened up, and rubble mixed with the body of the statue fell to the ground.
"Why did the statue collapse?" Jun Zhao stepped forward and grabbed Wang Wei's arm, but was thrown away by Wang Wei the next moment. "Zhuang Boyan, you are meddling too much. This trip has nothing to do with you, but you followed along. Since you came here on your own, there is no need for us to communicate with each other!"
What exactly happened in Wutian Building? I am afraid only those involved can explain it clearly.
Huo Feng was somewhat curious, but he didn't want to ask more questions at this moment.
"I got it once I got it. As for the process, it's not important at all." Wang Wei spread out her palms, and in her hands lay two identical beads.
The gem also emitted a bright red light, illuminating this dim place. The light also fell on everyone's face, allowing them to see Wang Wei's expression more clearly.
She didn't look happy, and even though she got what she wanted, her face seemed to be covered with a shadow like ash.
"This bead is of no use to me now. Who of you wants it?"
Jun Zhao raised his hand and took one. He wanted to take a closer look at what kind of magical weapon this was!
The other bead was lying alone. Wang Wei handed it to Huo Feng and said, "Although you acted without my consent, never mind. I won't pursue the matter. This bead looks like a burning flame. It's very beautiful. I'll give it to you as a gift."
Huo Feng took the bead, which still had the warmth of Wang Wei's palm on it. He put the bead in his arms and spoke slowly: "Thank you, Master. But is Master really okay now? Just now..."
Wang Wei coughed lightly and interrupted him: "Of course it's fine, don't worry, let's go back first."
The three of them quickly returned to the inn, and after returning, they began the "purification" process that had always been going on.
Wang Wei was so confused that he even forgot many of the steps he had made up. Huo Feng even reminded him several times.
The reason why she was so confused was because of the final choice she made.
Indeed, they got the pure artifact and the eye with divine power back, which seemed to be a happy ending. However, the process was hard to describe.
Yes, she chose another path.
She didn't know if this was the ultimate reason for the statue's collapse, but she knew that her obedience to her "self" in the illusion would inevitably go against everything.
That "self" is the original self who still relies on the power of the devil. Although she is now trying to separate herself from the power, she used to be extremely dependent on that power.
She used to be willing to give everything for that supreme power.
