Yuling

===========================

Before Xu En could finish his words, his whole body had already disappeared into a cloud of smoke, not even the elixir left behind.

Yan Yi fell to the ground, staring at the place where Xu En disappeared.

Crackling, a crisp breaking sound sounded from within his body, Yan Yi raised his hand to cover his heart, feeling the cracks appearing on the Ghost Vessel Spirit Pill.

There was a wry smile on his face, almost expending all the ghost force Liu Yadu gave him to deal with a half-human, half-ghost Xu En, it really wasn't worth it.

Just for Lu Zhiyan, he had to make a quick decision.

Thinking of Lu Zhiyan, Yan Yi struggled to stand up and stumbled to his side.

Looking at Lu Zhiyan who was in a coma, Yan Yi stretched out his hand to caress his pale cheek, and whispered, "I really owe you."

With difficulty, he lifted him up from the ground and walked towards the astrolabe step by step.

Putting Lu Zhiyan down next to the gap on the astrolabe took almost all of his strength.

Yan Yi panted heavily, and after a while, he formed his handprints, and poured the last remaining ghost energy towards the crack.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth seemed to be guided, and it turned into a streamer and slowly entered Lu Zhiyan's body along with the ghostly energy.

A black ghostly aura slowly poured out from Lu Zhiyan's forehead.

His complexion also gradually improved.

Yan Yi was relieved when he saw this, the ghost energy in Lu Zhiyan's body was dispelled, his panacea was gradually repaired by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and the spiritual power in his body was no longer scattered.

He's fine.

Suddenly, loud noises came from all around.

The astrolabe under his feet began to be unstable, and the spiritual veins underneath were surging, and he felt like he was burnt.

Yan Yi's heart skipped a beat, cracks appeared on the five beams of light, and countless halos poured out from the cracks, dazzling and dazzling.

"Oops." He frowned.

"Ah Yan..." Lu Zhiyan woke up quietly, and the moment he opened his eyes, he felt the strangeness of the large formation protecting the city.

Hearing the sound, Yan Yi quickly helped Lu Zhiyan up, and he said with a straight face: "The formation is about to break, it's time to go."

Lu Zhiyan shook his head, "No, we have to find a way to repair the formation, otherwise the spirit veins will pour out, and Jiangcheng will be over."

Yan Yi knew Lu Zhiyan's temperament well. As the head of the spirit master clan, it was his duty to protect the spirit veins.

How could he be so conscientious and rigorous to persuade him to give up?

"Lu Zhiyan, I like you." Yan Yi said abruptly.

Lu Zhiyan was taken aback for a moment, turned around to look at Yan Yi in surprise, and said in disbelief, "What did you say?"

"I said I like you. I liked you five years ago, and I still haven't forgotten you five years later. No matter how many unpleasant things happened to us before, you are always the one I Yanyi believes in. Lu Zhiyan, don't forget Don't miss me, either." Yan Yi smiled, and his eyes were slightly red.

"Ah Yan? What do you mean by that?" Lu Zhiyan frowned slightly, it seemed that now was not the time to talk about love.

He had obviously been looking forward to his heart for a long time, but this confession of true feelings now made his heart extremely uneasy.

"I have a way to repair the formation." Yan Yi smiled slightly.

He knew that even if he left the formation, the elixir would be shattered, and he would become a useless person again.

Yu Lu knew how he was standing by his side.

Standing beside him should be a powerful existence.

Instead of becoming his burden, it is better to use the last bit of strength to fulfill him and also fulfill myself.

Yan Yi asked himself that he had never been a generous enough person to sacrifice himself for the sake of the world, but Lu Zhiyan was worth it.

All he has to do is protect him well.

After hearing Yan Yi's words, Lu Zhiyan became even more uneasy.

"What way?" He frowned.

But what responded to him was Yan Yi's magic circle that suddenly formed, and the red astrolabe surrounded him.

"What do you mean? Ah Yan?" Lu Zhiyan panicked, and he tried to break through the magic circle with his spiritual power.

"It's useless, you just recovered, and your spiritual power is not enough to break through my magic circle. Lu Zhiyan, do what you should do, and keep Jiangcheng safe. I don't need you here anymore." Yan Yi waved his hand, Fa The formation led Lu Zhiyan to fly out of the large formation protecting the city in an instant.

"Ayan!" Lu Zhiyan opened his mouth in surprise, Yan Yi's resolute eyes and the last few words that were drowned out by the loud noise reflected in his dark pupils.

pat.

The elixir in his body shattered, and Yan Yi gasped in pain.

There was not much time left for him.

When he strayed into the big formation, the formation on the stone tablet came to mind. Yan Yi never thought that one day he would become the fool who sacrificed himself to the formation at the mouth of Liu Ya.

He closed his eyes, recited the formula according to the formation and formed his handprints.

The ghost energy entangled him with the aura of heaven and earth, like a black and red lotus flower blooming on the broken black astrolabe.

He could feel that his life was crazily passing away, his limbs and bones were shattered into sand, gradually submerged into the lotus flower, and then turned into sparks and flames circulating in the formation.

"Goodbye, Lu Zhiyan..."

The wind and snow all over the sky shrouded the entire Jiangcheng in a piece of white.

The blood dissipated, leaving only gloomy and yellow.

Lu Zhiyan was teleported back to the gate of Lu's house by Yan Yi. The corpses lay in disorder on the ground, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

Everything seems to be over.

He stared blankly at everything around him, and stood there as if he had lost his soul.

Until Lu Ye and the others ran out, they breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Lu Zhiyan.

"Patriarch, I knew you would succeed." Lu Ye said with a smile.

"Not long ago, all the zombies produced by the Three-Face Buddhist Association suddenly dissipated on the spot. Presumably, you have successfully dealt with Xu Zhentian and his son. Even the evil spirits are still at large. It will take some time to control the spirits to clear them. Everything is finally over. .”

Lu Zhiyan looked up at the sky, the snowflakes were scattered, and there was a deep chill on his face.

"Where's Xiaoyan?" Lin Sheng followed closely, but seeing that Lu Zhiyan was alone, he frowned and asked.

Only then did Lu Ye realize that something was wrong with Lu Zhiyan.

His whole body was wrapped in sadness, and he lost his soul.

A sense of ominousness arises spontaneously.

"Mr. Yan?" Lu also hesitated.

"Go to the big formation to protect the city." Lu Zhiyan raised his head suddenly, and said without hesitation, he made his handprints again, and a blue vortex appeared out of thin air.

He quickly stepped into the vortex, Lu Ye and Lin Sheng looked at each other and followed closely behind.

The moat array was restored to its original appearance, the black astrolabe disappeared, and the original cracks on the ground also disappeared.

The five beams of light also stood quietly around, as if everything had never happened.

But there is no Yan Yi.

"Ayan..." Lu Zhiyan yelled, and the empty echo rippled through the formation.

The pain of losing again made Lu Zhiyan tremble slightly.

A heart seemed to be severely gripped, and the pain was unbearable.

"Is this how you repair the formation? Sacrifice the formation with your body? This is not your responsibility, why did you do this! Yan Yi, get out!" Lu Zhiyan knelt down on the ground, clutching his heart, his voice hoarse With despair.

Not far away, a red bracelet lay quietly on the ground.

Lu Zhiyan stumbled and ran over to hold it into the palm of his hand, without aura or ghostly aura.

He was having difficulty breathing and could not hold back his tears.

His pride and dignity collapsed in an instant.

For a moment, Lu Ye and Lin Sheng didn't know what it was like.

But they can't say a word of comfort at all. There is no empathy in this world, and any words seem pale and powerless.

"Let's go, let him stay here alone." Lin Sheng said slowly.

Lu also hesitated for a long time, but finally nodded.

Lu Zhiyan stayed in the formation for a long time, as if only here could he perceive a trace of Yan Yi's aura, as if he had become a part of the formation.

Until this day, a slender figure appeared in front of him.

Lu Zhiyan raised his head, his face was pale, his beard was unshaven, and his eyes were bloodshot.

"You still haven't taken care of him." Liu Ya's voice was cold without any warmth.

"Yeah, kill me." Lu Zhiyan sneered, tears falling from the corners of his eyes.

Liu Ya sighed softly, and slowly sat next to Lu Zhiyan, reaching out to pat him on the shoulder, "I can understand your feelings, Yan Yi's sacrifice is not Jiangcheng or the world, but you."

Lu Zhiyan turned his head slightly, the pain in his heart became more and more uncontrollable.

Liu Ya laughed at himself, "Let me tell you a story."

"It is said that thousands of years ago, there was a ghost king in the world who was born due to the evil spirit of the world. The world feared him and wanted to kill him. He asked himself that he had never done anything harmful to the world. He was given a bad name just because he was born because of evil. , Everyone can be punished, this is the world's fear of the strong and the gods, he has always dismissed it, until he met a person, that person was full of righteousness, created the law of controlling spirits, and punished the troubles in the world He also taught him how to behave in the world and be kind to others, telling him that no one can control his own birth, but he can choose his future direction, and he must follow his own heart from good to evil."

"That person is like a master and a father by Guijun's side. They walked the world together, taught him to cultivate his own ghost energy into ghost art, and control the evil nature in his body. Unfortunately, the happy days are too short, even if Guijun has never had one. With the intention of harming others, he was still framed by righteous people in every possible way, pushing him to the point of public criticism, challenging his limits time and time again, and even using the person he respected and loved to threaten him, his evil side was infinitely magnified, let He had the idea of ​​dying with the righteous dog, and the first person who stood up to stop him was the person he wanted to protect, and he actually persuaded him to stop."

"Do you know how much the ghost king hates? He protects the so-called righteous people who want to kill him. He feels that all his sacrifices are a waste of feelings. He vows to bring all the righteous people together with him and let them fall forever." A ghost, so he summoned the ancient murderer Qiongqi, whose power destroyed the world, his spiritual veins were almost destroyed, and the world was turned upside down. The remaining spiritual power sacrificed to the formation with the body, and day after day, the formation of today's protective city was built, and the spirit veins were kept safe."

Lu Zhiyan listened to Liu Ya's story in silence. He didn't know what Liu Ya meant, but this story made him so familiar...
