blues paradox

Lan Tuo closed his eyes, his mind was full of Xiu's voice and smile, and the words that were almost broken kept reverberating in his mind, until he heard him heartbroken, as if a certain corner of his heart had been forcibly hollowed out.

There is also that pair of gentle and doting eyes, the golden eyes are faintly shining with a silver streamer, making it impossible to stare at, and the smile on the corner of the lips is light and gentle.

In Lan Tiao's memory, Xiu always seemed to like to wear such a smile, which was faintly mixed with a hint of playfulness and evil charm.

However, it wasn't until today that Lan Tiao discovered that that smile never existed at all—it was just a habitual way of pulling the corners of his lips, never a smile.It's like some people are habitually expressionless.

"Hey, what's going on, internal strife?!"

A teasing voice mixed with a bit of schadenfreude rang in his ears. Lan Tiao opened his eyes. His emerald green eyes were like green lakes, but they had already returned to their usual calmness. He looked at the strange man in front of him expressionlessly The man who knew when to come had an ethereal and piercing voice, "When did you get here, Hong?"

"Just now, just a second before that Highness left." Hong held Xiao Jiu with one hand, looked around at the crumbling temple because of the loss of the enchantment, and said mockingly: "Xiao Jiu said that this temple has an ancient knot. World, we were planning to avoid disaster, but we didn't know that we came by such a coincidence, and we happened to see... huh... such a wonderful scene."

There was a condensed killing intent in Lan Tuo's clear eyes, but he calmed down quickly. He forced himself not to think about anything related to Xiu, because the current situation does not allow him to do whatever he wants or lose his mind. He did not forget the thunder and lightning lingering in the sky, and now, the temple without the sealing stone is definitely not safe.

Lan Tiao carefully thought about Red's words, but quickly discovered something unreasonable. The Red World is definitely not close to the temple, not to mention that the sea area around the Red World is completely occupied by storms, and the usual method is impossible to get out.He looked up at Hong, and asked coldly, "How did you get here? Didn't you lose your magic power?"

Hong looked at Lan Tiao in astonishment, a hint of admiration and approval flashed in his eyes, he never thought that this young man could still maintain his rationality, think calmly, and do such a thing even when he encountered such a situation that was close to being betrayed and abandoned. To such an extent, if it wasn't that he didn't care about Xiu at all, it was that his mind was extremely firm and easily unshakable.Hong recalled the details of how Lantiao and Xiu got along, combined with his not too deep but real enough understanding of Lantiao, obviously, it could never be the first case.

Hong smiled lightly, and waved casually towards a corner of the temple, "Come out, you guys, you've been discovered!"

Lan Tuo followed Red's line of sight, and saw two people wrapped in black cloaks coming out from the corner, each holding a candlestick in their hands. Now, the candle that was supposed to be extinguished by the energy absorbed by the sky was still burning unscathed. The dim yellow candlelight swayed in the cold wind, adding some warmth to the bleak temple out of thin air.

"What... what's going on?" Lan Tiao frowned tightly, looking at the scene in front of him in surprise. Although his face was still calm, there was already a storm in his heart. Could it be...they could resist it? Is it the magic of the emperor of the demon world?

"Hehe..." One of them chuckled, the voice was soft and euphemistic, like a gentle stream, obviously a woman's voice.Lan Tiao felt that the voice was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't match it with anyone in his memory, and always felt a little incongruous.

The two stretched out their hands to pull down their hoods, and Lan Tiao's pupils constricted suddenly. Those two were... An and Meisha who disappeared in the Moon Forest.

"You..." Lan Tuo's eyes gradually became condensed, and he spoke softly, without any sloppiness, decisive and decisive, "Who are you guys...or should I ask, how did you do it?" up to this point?"

"Didn't you already know that we are all members of the Ice Flame Clan, as for how to avoid being absorbed by the magic power..."

In the past, when encountering such a situation, An always came out to answer, while Meisha hid behind An timidly and tremblingly. However, Meisha today is completely different from the past. A confident and flamboyant charm of a successful personality, like a pearl that has washed away its lead, exuding a soft but beautiful halo.

She took a step forward, her body was swaying with an inexplicable seductive temptation, she did not answer Lantiao's question directly, she asked with a light smile: "Master Lantiao, do you know why such a big demon world can't accommodate a small one?" The little Ice Flame Clan?"

"It is said that the Bingyan tribe is a race abandoned by the emperor of the demon world..." Lan Tuo seemed to think of something, and was startled suddenly, and his calm face became even paler. He didn't know whether he was shocked or frightened. He spoke slowly, with a tone of inquiry at any time, but between the lines there was affirmation and a slight realization, "Could it be because the Bingyan tribe can... resist the power of the emperor of the demon world?"

Meisha nodded, and said softly: "To be precise, it should be that the Bingyan tribe can counteract the power of the Demon Emperor to a certain extent. In fact, we do not pose much threat to the Demon Emperor. As long as he is willing, he will still He can easily kill us, but we are just a group of ants with special abilities in his eyes, and we can't have any influence on him at all."

"But he still wants to kill you." Lan Tuo slightly lowered his eyes, preventing anyone from seeing the emotion in his eyes.

In fact, from a certain point of view, he is very much in favor of the decision of the Emperor of the Demon Realm, how can others be allowed to snore on the side of the couch?No one can endure a time bomb dangling in front of their eyes. The demons are selfish and violent, and they will do anything to achieve their goals, let alone the demon emperor, the creation god of the demon world? !

"Yes, even if it's just a group of ants, he can't tolerate our existence, so he issued an oracle to make us be rejected by the entire demon world, hide in Tibet, and endure humiliation... After thousands of years, we will not be able to escape the genocide. Destiny, up to now, only me and An are left." Meisha said lightly, with a little regret and a little sadness in her words, but not much hatred or other things, she is more beautiful than anyone else. Clearly, the Bingyan tribe has already become rotten, and this kind of race is no longer suitable for living in this tyrannical and crazy land of the Demon Realm.

"Then, how did you send Hong and Xiaojiu here safely?" Lan Tuo didn't want to talk about the Emperor of the Demon Realm at the moment. The damn Emperor of the Demon Realm was the one who abducted his Xiu!Lan Tuo reached out and fiddled with the pure black ring on his index finger, and said bluntly: "The magic power of the two of you can't cross the sea of ​​​​the Red Realm."

"Indeed." Meisha and Ann nodded at the same time.Meisha's attitude is very calm, her magic power is low, she knows it better than anyone else, and she can accept it calmly.Compared with Meisha, Ann seemed a little humiliated and unwilling. He was an ambitious person. Although he concealed it well, it didn't mean that no one could see it.

Meisha patted Ann's head reassuringly, and continued: "We have set up a barrier around Hong and Xiaojiu, this barrier can offset the power of the emperor of the Demon Realm to a certain extent, so, in fact, , They used teleportation magic to come here..." Meisha spread her hands helplessly, and then said: "By the way, they brought us along."

"Well, that's how it is." Blues nodded, walked up to Meisha, and said as a matter of course: "Give me the enchantment."

The corner of Meisha's mouth twitched, young master, you really don't treat yourself as an outsider!

Of course, she didn't dare to say that blatantly.Different from Meisha's entanglement, An, from a certain point of view, recognized the blues as the main thing, so he obeyed the order and began to set up the enchantment, and added layer after layer with extra consideration.

"Speaking of which, did the thunder stop and the sky darken?" Xiao Jiu leaned against Hong, pointing to the sky through the door.

Lan Tuo looked in the direction of his finger, there was still a huge fluorescent green vortex in the sky, countless silver-blue lightnings were wandering around the vortex, but there was no tendency to descend, without the lighting of these lightnings , The demon world has become darker, only the two candlesticks in the temple are flickering with a dim light yellow halo, so that everyone in the temple can barely see.

"Yes." Hong nodded pretending to be surprised, turned to look at Lantiao, and said jokingly: "Xiaolan, tell me, it's not because of your blessing, since your dear father left, But there wasn't a single lightning strike around the temple! It's good now, even the lightning stopped, I thought it was because he didn't want to hurt his dear baby."

Lan Tuo clenched his hands into fists, settling down the complex and turbulent emotions in his heart, and glanced at Hong with disdain, "The lightning is the attack of the emperor of the demon world, what does it have to do with Xiu."

Hong shook her head, said with a light smile: "Maybe he does have a way to stop it, how unfathomable His Highness Xiu's power is, I believe you should know better than me, right?"
