The villain's daily corpse collection
Chapter 58 The Secret Realm
Wang Wei pointed to the flames and red lotuses surrounding him. Yinghuo hesitated for a while, but finally put it away.
"You always think that I am different from you. When I was not yet intelligent and had no independent soul, you could kill me at will. After I became intelligent, because of the power that possessed me, you tacitly accepted that I was a puppet controlled by it. So no matter how you treated me - cutting off my hands and feet, head, or killing me in any way, it was tacitly permitted... If I really died, you would have achieved your goal of destroying the power of the demon. If I didn't die, I would have recovered as before, without even leaving a scar..." Wang Wei's voice was calm, as if he was telling someone else's story.
"In fact, my five senses are very sharp, and I am very afraid of pain." Wang Wei laughed softly, and she moved closer to Yinghuo's face, "Kill your uncle... I gave him a chance, but he thought I had become a puppet of that power and insisted on killing me. His obsession far exceeded his original intention, so I had no choice but to kill him."
When he was young, Yinghuo once passed by his uncle's study, but unexpectedly saw another side of him, anxious and depressed. He convened meetings of the gods day and night, saying that he was going to kill a god who had not yet passed the tribulation.
Yinghuo took it for granted that this person must be a bad guy, and a master among bad guys. But she didn't know at the time that they were going to work together to kill a girl who was about the same age as her. Looking back, what was the legitimate and glorious thing they did?
Now it was Yinghuo's turn to be in a dilemma. She had been hunting Wang for a thousand years, but she seemed to have never figured out what happened back then. She only heard a little bit about it from her family members, and she respected her uncle very much, so she started the so-called revenge. Although, before today, she had not had many opportunities to get close to her.
"The person is already dead. It's hard to tell whether what you said is true or false." Yinghuo looked at her coldly, "We have been enemies for many years. Why should I trust you instead of my family?"
"You regard me as your enemy, but I have never regarded you as my enemy... If I remember correctly, we are people of the same generation." Wang Wei's eyes were calm and his words were sincere.
However, Yinghuo interpreted these words with another meaning. Bo Shangwang thought that he did not regard her as an enemy, but probably as a friend or companion.
"You don't have to bear the fate of others. All causes and effects are caused by him killing me." Wang Wei looked at Yinghuo's slightly moved expression and continued, "Do you always think in your heart that he designated you to inherit the position of Fire God, so you must do something for him in order to sit on this seat with peace of mind?"
"How do you know..." Yinghuo was touched by her thoughts.
"Don't you think you are a gifted person in the Fire Clan? You achieved the position of God-honored by your own strength. How can you say you are unworthy?"
"I, I...I don't know." Yinghuo stammered.
She was not as confident as she seemed. She used to hide in the corner, not as energetic as other children in the same clan, but she finally got the position of God. There were many people who were dissatisfied at the beginning, and because her uncle was cultivated by her, she vowed to challenge the demon god Bo Shangwangwei, who would definitely win her and avenge the previous generation of God, and then those voices gradually subsided.
After all, no one has been able to do it yet.
"Then...come back with me to see the Heavenly Lord." Yinghuo put away her aggressive aura and all restraints, but Wang Wei looked at her with confusion.
She said with a bit of embarrassment: "It was my own wish to hunt you down. As you said, I don't think I deserve it. Since this is my uncle's position, I have to do something for him. But I didn't consider what the original story was... In fact, Tianzun has told me many times that I always felt he was biased towards you, but after seeing you today, I don't think you are as vicious as the rumors say." Yinghuo sighed, "I think I understand why Tianzun would help you. You are pretty miserable."
Wang Wei smiled slightly, not understanding the meaning. However, she still agreed, "It's great that you understand my difficulties."
"Come back with me. Some things need to be explained so that everyone can understand you. Why are you willing to bear a bad reputation? Do you want to keep running away like this?" Yinghuo explained the reason why she wanted to take people back.
Escape? What kind of escape is this? She has a lot of things to do.
Wang Wei shook his head, then walked out the door and waved goodbye to Yinghuo without looking back.
If she returned to the heaven now, it would certainly expose the fact that she did not have the power of the devil. Not only did she not have this power, she also lost her divine body. Even if she was forcibly brought back through the realm, what good fate would she have after returning? She would not put her fate in the hands of others.
Yinghuo quickly caught up with him, frowned and said, "What's so good about the mortal world? None of you who came down here want to go back. Come back with me, I promise I won't let them hurt you."
Wang Wei didn't look at her again, but said meaningfully: "The cause and effect are not over, the earthly ties are not over, you can't leave." After she finished speaking, she disappeared into the night.
Yinghuo looked at the bright moon hanging high in the sky. Tonight was clear and the past was settled today. He would return to heaven first and make plans later.
Wang Wei rushed to the inn without looking back. When he stepped into the inn, he saw Huo Feng, Du Ximiao and Yuan Xiang downstairs. The few small plates of cold dishes on the table were already empty.
Seeing Wang Wei coming in, Du Ximiao immediately started to prepare, and shouted towards the kitchen, "Waiter, it's time to serve the hot dishes!" Then she turned around to greet Wang Wei, "Sister Weiwei, why are you back so late? We were a little hungry just now, so we had something to eat and are waiting for you!"
"You don't have to wait for me for meals in the future..." Before she finished speaking, she was pushed forward and her shoulders were pressed on the seat by Du Ximiao. She glanced at Huo Feng and found that his face was slightly pale. He tried to avoid Wang Wei's gaze.
"I don't know what happened to him just now. He suddenly fell down when he was going downstairs. He seemed very weak." Du Ximiao whispered in Wang Wei's ear. Wang Wei felt Huo Feng's pulse and patted his shoulder to comfort him.
There was a large table of home-cooked meals, and three people started eating, looking hungry.
Wang Wei held the teacup and reviewed what had just happened in the abandoned house. With her current strength, she would need to use a considerable amount of demonic power to easily kill an ordinary celestial master like Feng'e.
But she was somewhat helpless against even more powerful and god-level figures. She could only fool them like she did with Yinghuo, and try not to take action, so as not to let the other party know her true situation. Not everyone was like Yinghuo and Junzhao, who could be fooled by her pretending to be pitiful. She had to speed up the search for her body fragments and take back more power, so that she could control the whole situation.
"Sister Weiwei, you really don't want to eat! We've almost finished eating." Du Ximiao took a few mouthfuls of rice and muttered.
"You guys eat." Wang Wei did not leave the table early because everyone was waiting for her. Instead, she sat aside to keep them company. Yuan Xiang finished his meal quickly and went to pay the bill.
After dinner, the four of them returned to their rooms. Wang Wei did not return to her room, but went to Huo Feng's place. She had used her power today, so Huo Feng must have sensed it, and was greatly affected.
"Nothing happened to you today, did you?" Wang Wei pushed open the door and went straight to the point.
"Master, why are you here?" Huo Feng had already started meditating on the couch. He opened his eyes when he heard the noise, then stood up to make some space to sit.
Wang Wei sat down, looked up at him, and said slowly: "It's okay, why can't I come over?" Huo Feng tried his best to restrain the surging power in his sea of consciousness, and hurriedly said: "Of course not."
Wang Wei sighed and said, "Practice now. I will be here tonight. Call me if you need anything."
"Master, don't you want to ask about what we have gained today? Today I was..." He was stopped by Wang Wei before he could finish his words.
"I heard that there is a god in heaven who can open the door to the secret realm. I guess the secret realm may contain the artifact we are looking for. I will ask Du Ximiao about this tomorrow. You should conserve your energy, because there will be a tough battle in the secret realm."
Wang Wei had already arranged the follow-up matters. After listening to this, Huo Feng nodded and said nothing more.
As expected, Huo Feng's hands and feet began to tremble around the hour of Yin, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and veins even bulged on his neck. This time the nightmare came as expected.
Wang Wei frowned. She tried to wake Huo Feng up, but she couldn't wake him up. She didn't know what he would dream about this time. Would he find out the truth of the whole thing? She was not an unknown little god at all. She was the demon god Bo Shang Wang Wei.
There were still many days ahead, but at least now she must not be discovered. She tried to force her way into his dream, but was always blocked by a restriction. Perhaps her current magic power was not enough, so she was blocked by the power of the demon.
Wang Wei chanted a meditation spell beside him, and a clear spell was sent into Huo Feng's sea of consciousness. He gradually relaxed from his tense state, and it seemed that nothing shocking had happened. Wang Wei relaxed inwardly, her eyelids began to feel heavy, and then she fell asleep with her head against the wall beside the couch.
The next morning, Wang Wei opened her eyes and found herself lying on the couch, covered with a quilt. She stood up and saw Huo Feng quietly brewing tea.
"Master, you're awake." Huo Fengxian brought a glass of water, "Drink some water first." Wang Wei took the cup. She tried hard to recall what happened last night. She clearly came to check on Huo Feng, but she didn't expect that she fell asleep as if she had fainted.
"What did you dream about last night?" Wang Wei took the initiative to ask about this. Huo Feng showed a very unnatural look for a moment. Wang Wei didn't understand. Her past was nothing but bloody and violent scenes. He had seen it before. Why was she so hesitant this time?
"I... I dreamed of a scene that seemed to be at a banquet. Those people seemed to have made an appointment... I didn't see their faces clearly, they took me to a remote place in the back mountain, tied my hands and feet with ropes made of strange material, seemed to have drugged me, and put a few strange-looking snakes into my collar..." Huo Feng frowned as he recalled, still looking frightened.
"Is this all you dreamed about?" Wang Wei asked.
"I also dreamed that you, Master, came to save me." Huo Feng said cautiously.
"what?"
"It's absolutely true!" Huo Feng said firmly, "It's just that the master didn't look very old at that time, and his hair was black. But I'm sure that person was you. You look exactly the same. Last time in Mengzhou, I also dreamed of the black-haired master, and he really looks exactly the same."
Wang Wei was very sure who he was talking about, the person who looked exactly like her—Bo Shang Wang You, her nominal sister.
The bullying in the dream was a relatively mild incident among the many killings. At that time, she had natural antibodies to any poison and was not afraid of snakes. Compared with beheading, these things were very mild.
Anyway, in the end, she gave all the participating celestial beings to her ferocious beasts as dinner.
"Master, did we really not know each other before?" Huo Feng couldn't help but ask.
"These dreams are all false. Don't spend too much time thinking about them. They don't make any sense. You dreamed of being oppressed, which only means that you have been under a lot of pressure recently. Relax and don't think too much." Wang Wei interrupted Huo Feng's thoughts.
Huo Feng agreed, saying that although these dreams were real, they were indeed dreams and should not be taken too seriously.
"By the way, did you find out anything about the secret realm yesterday?"
"Yesterday I went to some bookstores and newspapers to look for news, and unexpectedly heard someone mention the words Yangyue An family and the secret realm, but they just mentioned it briefly." Huo Feng recalled, "However, recently many cultivators have come to Yangyue City, and some people from the Yangdu Imperial Court have also come here. I wonder if they are related to this secret realm."
Wang Wei thought for a moment and said, "The Yangyue An family has close ties with that man called Prince Xian. Du Ximiao can help us find out first. It seems that you two got along well yesterday. You may need them a lot in the future, so you should maintain a good relationship."
Huo Feng hesitated to speak, but finally nodded.
Wang Wei went out to the next door and threw the matter to Du Ximiao. Du Ximiao's smiling face visibly fell.
"Sister Weiwei, are you serious?" Du Ximiao's voice was filled with disbelief.
"You are a member of the imperial family. It would be most appropriate for you to investigate this matter. What's the problem?"
"Sister, I have offended both the current leader of the Yangyue An family and Prince Xian. Now I dare not see them and I usually avoid them. Now if you want me to meet them... it's too difficult." Du Ximiao looked worried.
"If the secret realm is true, I will tell you how to negotiate with them." Wang Wei smiled slightly, "Aren't you always thinking about that high position? Escaping will not make you successful. If you escape when encountering trivial matters, how can you achieve your ideals?"
Yuan Xiang couldn't help but say, "But the risk is too great. If the talks fail, Your Highness will be in danger. Since the last breakdown of relations, Your Highness has severed all contact with them and has never appeared in the same occasion with them again. The last time they parted, it was also the beginning of Your Highness's offense to the power center."
"There are no eternal enemies in the power field, but there are eternal interests. As long as we give them enough benefits, this cooperation will definitely succeed." Wang Wei pointed out the key point, "You can go with peace of mind. I will support you in the dark, and we will be prepared even if there are any accidents."
Du Ximiao and Yuan Xiang looked at each other, and Du Ximiao nodded and agreed to the request.
