The hostess said I flirted with her

Nan Shuyu's expression froze, and she followed Yun Yanqing towards a certain place with a sword in her hand, but within a matter of breathing, they rushed to that courtyard.

In the backyard, a half-person-high milky-white monster floated in mid-air, it floated in front of the woman and touched her forehead, a soft white light emanated from the joint of their foreheads——

A picture appeared in the white light. In the picture, a woman was hugging a boy tightly by a pond, her face was full of excitement of regaining what was lost.

Nan Shuyu was taken aback. She learned from her junior sister that this woman's son fell into the lotus pond and drowned because of her negligence. Her family blamed her for not taking good care of her son. The woman has been immersed in the pain and guilt of losing her son. middle.

This--

"That's a mirage." Yun Yanqing clenched the sword tightly, "They claim to be praying gods, and let the praying ones live in the illusion forever."

Nan Shuyu, who wanted to kill the monster, couldn't help but stop when she heard this. If this was what those people expected, why did she stop it?

Yun Yanqing raised her sword and shouted loudly: "Stop!"

The mirage paused, and slowly raised its head to look at Yun Yanqing, the white light disappeared in an instant, the woman leaned back as if she was asleep, a junior sister quickly hugged the woman and dragged her away from the battle ring.

The mirage didn't stop it, but tilted its head, and said, "What's the matter with you?"

The ethereal voice is like a ray of fairy voice from outside the sky, and the tone is gentle without the slightest attack.

Yun Yanqing looked at it vigilantly holding the sword, she couldn't test the cultivation level of this mirage at all, the other party was at least the cultivation level of Jindan stage.

"You have killing intent on me." Mirage narrated calmly, as if she didn't quite understand, "Why?"

Nan Shuyu hurriedly took the sword and stood beside Yun Yanqing, Mirage looked at her calmly and said, "You have no intention of killing me."

The younger brothers and sisters all surrounded the mirage with swords, staring at the mirage vigilantly, waiting for Yun Yanqing's signal.

The mirage slowly glanced around, and finally looked at Nan Shuyu, "They are all hostile to me, but you are not. Can you tell me why?"

As soon as these words came out, most of the disciples couldn't help looking at her, as if she was a traitor.

Yun Yanqing looked sideways at her, frowned and said, "What are you waiting for, draw your sword!"

Nan Shuyu still didn't draw his sword, and said to Yun Yanqing, "It's not hostile to us, we don't need to be like this, why don't we ask first?"

Before Yun Yanqing could speak, Nan Shuyu took a step forward.Yun Yanqing's complexion changed and she reached out to grab her, but Nan Shuyu shook off her hand, looked directly at the mirage, and asked directly: "Did you eat the nine missing people in this town?"

The mirage tilted its head and pondered for a moment, then said, "I don't eat people."

Nan Shuyu choked, and asked another way, "Did you take those nine people away?"

The mirage thought for a while, and said, "If you mean those petitioners, I took them away."

Hearing its confession, Nan Shuyu couldn't wait to ask: "Are they still alive?"

Mirage nodded.

Seeing this, Nan Shuyu couldn't help asking: "Can you put them back?"

Mirage didn't seem to expect that she would say such a thing. After a moment of daze, she slowly shook her head, "That's their wish, and I can't go against their wish."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere on the field stagnated, and several junior sisters couldn't help but looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Fifth Senior Sister, what nonsense are you talking to it, it must be lying to us!" A junior couldn't help but shouted.

Mirage heard this and turned to look at him. Although the latter was a little scared, he still held his sword tightly and stared at it cautiously.

"I'm not like you humans, I never lie."

Yun Yanqing snorted coldly, "Just talking nonsense, the illusion is the biggest lie!"

The mirage was taken aback, and after thinking for a while, he said, "That's different, those are the dreams of the wishers, and I'm just fulfilling their wishes."

Yun Yanqing's eyes were cold, "That's also fake!"

Mirage sighed for a long time, "You want to kill me?"

Nan Shuyu hurriedly stood in front of Yun Yanqing, "Senior sister, wait, if we kill it like this, the nine of us will never come back!"

Yun Yanqing's face was shaken when she heard the words, but her gaze was firm and she said in a firm tone, "At least we can prevent others from being taken away."

Is this about to start?

Nan Shuyu wanted to say something more, but was pushed aside by Yun Yanqing.Yun Yanqing's eyes sharpened, and she muttered something while pinching the formula with her slender hands. The younger brothers and younger sisters immediately formed a sword formation, and Ling Lie's sword energy almost pierced the night sky.

Faced with such a situation, Mirage did not move, but sighed heavily, "Why bother?"

Nan Shuyu suddenly felt that something was wrong, and was about to draw his sword to stop it, when he keenly realized that the surroundings had frozen, and the juniors and younger sisters who were forming the sword formation a second ago seemed to be frozen.

She hastily turned her head to look at Yun Yanqing, but the latter was fixed in place like those junior sisters and juniors.

"What did you do?!" Nan Shuyu stared at the mirage in disbelief. She didn't want to draw her sword at first, but now she couldn't care less.

The strength of this mirage is at least in the late stage of Jindan, otherwise how could it freeze everyone in a breath.

Mirage looked at her calmly, "Just let them calm down for a while."

Nan Shuyu looked at it vigilantly, walked quickly to Yun Yanqing's side, and reached out to grab her arm.

"I advise you not to touch her." Mirage said, "She has fallen into a dream, if you touch her, you will be dragged into her dream."

Nan Shuyu's heart tightened when she heard this, and she asked, "Then when will she wake up?"

"It depends on her." Mirage's ethereal voice came, "Maybe in the next second, maybe in a lifetime."

"you!"

The mirage floated closer to Yun Yanqing, Nan Shuyu drew his sword and stood in front of Yun Yanqing, glaring, "Don't come here!"

Seeing her draw her sword, Mirage slowly shook her head, "Why do you do this? Since you are afraid that she will kill you, why should you protect her?"

These words fell into Nan Shuyu's ears like a thunderclap. She felt chills down her spine and said in disbelief, "What... what did you say?"

But the mirage drifted away, helped up the woman who was dragged out of the battle circle by her junior sister just now, and sighed: "Human beings are always so strange. They want to kill her, but they are reluctant to do so."

Nan Shuyu smiled coldly, "I don't want to kill her at all to sow discord!"

"Whether you want to kill her or not, you and I know very well, I can see the inner desires of all living beings, including you." Mirage said calmly, while hugging the woman's forehead.

Nan Shuyu's mind was shaken, seeing its movement, she didn't care about that little thought, and immediately raised her hand and sent a burst of energy to hit the mirage, and flew towards the woman.

The mirage only leaned back slightly to avoid its strength, Nan Shuyu took the opportunity to pull the woman into his arms, and held the sword to block the mirage.

"Don't you agree with my approach?" Mirage looked at her puzzled, "Why stop me?"

Nan Shuyu took two steps back holding the woman, "I can't watch you take her away."

Mirage shook her head, "I never force others to follow me, unless she is voluntary."

As soon as it finished speaking, Nan Shuyu keenly noticed the weight in her arms lighten, and saw a woman slowly walking out of her arms, walking towards the mirage with a smile on her face.

Nan Shuyu glanced at the woman in her arms with closed eyes, then at the woman facing the mirage, quickly put the woman down, and reached out to stop her soul.

The woman's soul stopped, turned around and saluted her blessed body, "Immortal Master, please stay still, as long as I can see Zhi'er, I will not hesitate to give up my life."

"But that's all fake!" Nan Shuyu hurriedly stopped and said, "That's not your Zhi'er, it's all an illusion! What you got is nothing but a lie, your Zhi'er is dead!"

The woman's soul trembled, and Nan Shuyu regretted it. How could she say such a thing?

But now it's too late, Nan Shuyu can only bite the bullet and say: "What you sacrificed your life for is just an illusion, not your Zhi'er, even so, do you still want to go with it?"

The woman's soul lowered her head, and after a long silence, she tremblingly said: "But I have nothing left. If I can live in the illusion of ambition, what's wrong with it?"

Nan Shuyu's heart sank, the only way to stop her now is to kill the mirage, right?

"You want to kill me." Mirage's ethereal voice came, and it looked at Nan Shuyu for no reason, "You know she is voluntary, why do you want to stop? Do you want her to live in pain? See?"

Nan Shuyu held the sword tightly, so hard that the lines on the hilt left a deep mark on her palm, she gritted her teeth and said, "I just can't just watch someone die like this."

Mirage slowly shook his head and said, "But you can't beat me."

Nan Shuyu's complexion darkened, which was the reason why she didn't take action for a long time. She knew that the opponent's cultivation base was three or four steps higher than her own and wanted to go up. She couldn't act rashly like this.

Seeing her silence, Mirage smiled, "Well, I'll give you a chance."

Nan Shuyu stared at it vigilantly, why did it suddenly let go?

Mirage said calmly, "It's because you told me a secret."

secret?When did she tell it any secret?

Mirage seemed to see through her thoughts, and said with a smile, "Your heart told me."

Nan Shuyu was about to speak, but the mirage changed the subject, "Since you want to save them, then I will let you meet them. If they are willing to go with you, you can take them back. If they are not willing, You don't have to worry about it any more."

"A word is settled!"

Although Nan Shuyu said so verbally, she was not sure in her heart——

Cruel reality and beautiful illusion, this kind of thing is completely one's own choice. Those who choose the former will not indulge in this false beauty, and those who choose the latter will not want to return to reality.

All she could do was tell them everything and wait for them to make a decision.

The mirage raised its hand slightly, and a beam of white light flowed from its fingertips to the ground. The moment the white light landed, it turned into a huge picture scroll. On the picture scroll was the gate of Xizhi Town, but inside it was the sound of birds singing in the clear sky. People who come and go are all smiling, looking at it is a warm and lively picture.

The ethereal voice sounded again, as if it came from a distant country, "Go, go and ask them if they would like to come back with you."

Nan Shuyu's heart moved, the bright colors of the warm picture in the white light gradually faded, the buildings and scenery inside also faded one by one, the people who came and went gradually disappeared, and finally only nine people with surprised expressions remained.

That is the nine missing people in Xizhi Town.

Nan Shuyu's heart was agitated for a while, she thought for a while, and said, "You should have seen it, what you saw during this time is an illusion."

The few people were not surprised, they just kept silent.

Nan Shuyu's heart sank, is that really the case?

"Even if you know it's all fake, do you still want to stay here?" Nan Shuyu looked at them gravely.

Unexpectedly, one of the little boys moved. He was wearing warm and clean clothes, but he was only as tall as Nan Shuyu's waist.He trotted to Nan Shuyu, his face was full of seriousness, "I'll go with you."

Nan Shuyu's eyes lit up, and she stretched out her hand happily, "Are you Chengzi?"

Chengzi held her hand without hesitation, nodded and said, "Mother and grandma must be very anxious during my absence."

Nan Shuyu couldn't help rubbing his head, "As long as you are fine, they will be very happy to know."

She looked at the others, "I can understand your choice, but do you really want to stay here?"

Just when Nan Shu thought that no one would pay any attention to her, a girl with a calm face came over.

Nan Shuyu didn't know the names of the others, but she remembered what her junior sister said about the indifference and ruthlessness of the families of the two "eaten" girls. Seeing her coming, Nan Shuyu hesitated.

Before she could speak, the girl seemed to see through her thoughts, and calmly said, "I'm not for those people, I don't need these fake things, what I want, I will get it myself in the future!"

Nan Shuyu's expression froze, and he stretched out his hand to her without hesitation. The girl glanced at her, and handed her hand to her hesitantly.

Even after hearing what the girl said, the rest of the people were still unmoved, they just turned their heads and stopped looking at them.

Nan Shuyu had expected it in her heart, and it was an unexpected joy to find the two of them back.

At this moment, the mirage's voice sounded again: "Take these two children back, the rest will not go with you."

Nan Shuyu nodded, tightly held the hands of the two children, and slowly pulled them out of the white light.

As the two children gradually left the white light, the clothes on their bodies began to become worn out, and purple bruises appeared on their wrists.

The two children who had completely escaped from Bai Guang fell limply in her arms, Nan Shuyu hurriedly went to check their breathing, and found that they were only relieved when they were asleep.

At the moment when the white light was about to disappear, the soul of the woman who had been standing silently by the side suddenly moved, and jumped into the white light.

"!"

The white light turned into white dots and floated back to the mirage's palm.

Nan Shuyu couldn't help being silent, her heart was extremely heavy.

Mirage looked at the two children in her arms and said calmly: "Since I have taken away the petitioner and you get what you want, then I will not stay any longer."

"Wait!" Nan Shuyu stopped it loudly, the mirage paused, and turned to look at her.

Nan Shuyu said in a deep voice, "Get them out of the dream!"

The mirage was startled, glanced around calmly, and finally landed on Yun Yanqing, "The others are just asleep, and they will wake up naturally at dawn."

Nan Shuyu also found the key point in what it said, she said anxiously: "What about my senior sister?"

Mirage looked suspicious, "You know she will kill you, why do you care about her life?"

Nan Shuyu's face was gloomy, and she said coldly: "This has nothing to do with you! Wake her up!"

Hearing this, Mirage only sighed, "She has fallen into a dream, and she cannot wake up unless her demon is killed."

Devil? !

Nan Shuyu looked at Yun Yanqing in shock, Yun Yanqing still maintained her original posture, but she didn't know when she quietly closed her star pupils.

The misty voice of the mirage came again——

"If you're so worried about her, you might as well go in and help her."

"But if you can't kill the demon, you will stay in her dream forever, have you figured it out?"
