The Prodigal Son of the Mystical Sect

A few days later, Zhong Liye became famous and firmly established himself as the number one genius in the vast land of China, being admired and worshiped by countless people.

Soon after, Zhong Liye went into seclusion to gain enlightenment, triggering visions in the world. He successfully crossed the threshold at a young age and was promoted to... a great practitioner.

…

…

Kyoto during the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The princess's bedroom.

Inside Furong's warm tent, Lu Mei'er was dressed in pink and hugging her knees on the bed. Her expression was sometimes frightened, sometimes dull...

For some unknown reason, at this moment, she felt that her consciousness was blurred, as if she had left her body and entered another space...

Large areas of darkness...

Endless screams...

Countless ghostly shadows...

The coldness is terrifying, lingering, like maggots on the tarsal bones that hunt...

Lu Meier was running helplessly in the darkness, but in reality her face was full of tears and her body was shaking...

"Help me...someone help me..."

After murmuring this sentence in horror, Lu Meier felt that the creepy oppression was already very close...

She almost suffocated!

However, the next moment...

A clear sword light created a bright crack in her world that was already swallowed up by darkness!

Warm and dazzling sunlight shines from the crack...

Immediately, the straight sword slashed away all the ghosts!

A familiar yet unfamiliar voice sounded in her ears...

Intermittent, vague...but so gentle and considerate, it made her feel at ease...

"Just call you... Jue? How about that?"

"Don't be afraid, starting from today, everything will be different."

"Me? Well...my name is Xiao Tianchu."

"Believe me, we will definitely meet again!"

Chaotic memories flooded into Lu Mei'er's mind, impacting her mind, which only made her hold her knees tighter, lowering her head and sobbing, with pear blossoms and rain on her face, and she became more and more pitiful...

"I, I remembered."

"I...remembered everything!"

"No wonder... no wonder the vixen and I are both naturally charming, but we were born in the same era. No wonder that when I saw her, I naturally wanted to get close to her, and wanted to be her..."

"It turns out that the truth...is actually like this..."

"Brother Tianxiao... I want to see you, and I want to see you now!"

With a murmur, Lu Meier wiped away the tears on her face and turned sideways to get out of bed. However, the next moment, she suddenly found herself... her limbs were limp and her whole body was weak!

With a snap, Lu Meier's figure became unstable and she fell heavily on the bed, unable to move again.

"What...what's going on?"

Lu Meier was shocked, and at this moment, a familiar female voice also sounded...

"Haha... It's just a little sequelae that pulls the memory deep in the soul..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a squeaking sound, and a woman in green clothes dressed as a maid pushed open the door and entered with an inexplicable smile on her face...

When she first saw the person coming, Lu Meier was immediately surprised, because this woman was her closest personal maid who had been with her since she could remember!

"Tui'er? How are you... are you a demon? No, that's not right, you're from Cicada's side? No, that's still wrong! This, what's going on..."

After a long string of words fell, the woman in green chuckled: "Your Highness the Princess has so many problems..."

When these words were spoken with a strong sense of ridicule, Lu Meier was immediately frightened, but her mind also calmed down at this time.

She took a long breath, stared at the woman in green and said, "You... want to kill this princess?"

"Your Highness the Princess is joking. There are countless restrictions in the Forbidden City. If you hadn't been restless recently and your thoughts were driving people away, my little maid couldn't even get close. How could I have killed Your Highness?"

"...Then what kind of enchantment method do you want to use to control me?"

"Giggle, Your Highness, you have obviously remembered everything, right? But you still use these words to tease the little maid?" Hearing this, the woman in green laughed so hard that her branches trembled with laughter, but Lu Meier's heart suddenly sank... …

Yes, she has remembered everything... Naturally, she knows that with her noble blood, there is no way in the world to forcibly "control" her mind - only she can control others!

It is precisely because of this that Lu Meier said the probing words just now... Her intention was to be conceited and then counterattack!

"You are indeed a princess who grew up in the royal family of the First Empire... It's a pity..." the woman in green said with a smile, then took a step closer and touched Lu Mei'er's face, "What you are facing, It's 'us'..."

"...you?" Lu Meier frowned deeply, but before she could finish her words, the woman in green took out a strange-looking "sharp knife" with a hint of evil aura from her arms...

The next moment, she put it into Lu Meier's hand, and at the same time, she pressed her body against it!

There was a crash!

Blood surges!

Lu Meier's pupils suddenly dilated!

For a moment, the endless darkness and the cold terror... swept over me again!

"No... don't continue to awaken at this time, no... you can't! -"

"hehe……"

As if to mock Lu Meier's persistence, the woman in green, whose heart and lungs had been penetrated, struggled, and whispered heart-breaking words in Lu Meier's ear...

"It's useless! Your Highness! Your awakening has reached its limit...your fate cannot be changed!"

"From now on, there will never be any Princess Tianmei."

"There is only one... who has been dormant in Kyoto for more than ten years. Once exposed, he killed his personal maid and escaped..."

"Witch!"

After the last sound fell, Lu Meier's pupils suddenly turned blood red!

A bright magic pattern appeared on her forehead, blooming with powerful light, helping her resist the pressure of the Forbidden City's formation!

Seeing this, the woman in green raised her head slightly, and before her death, she murmured: "The situation of Xuanmen... it's so whimsical... Haha... This is it, it's over..."

"Is this... okay? Chief... our belief... is this, okay..."

Before she finished speaking, she tilted her head and breathed her last breath.

…

…

Somewhere in the more secluded "wonderland" of Birdsong Mountain.

Before noon, the bamboo shadows were already slanting.

In a green bamboo forest, there was a constant sound of falling, but there were two old men - one was dressed in white, with eyebrows as white as snow, and the other was dressed in black, with his wrists to his shoulders pitch black.

The two of them were playing against each other on a stone chessboard here.

The game of black and white chess is like a battle between two armies. You come and go, not giving in to each other. After an unknown period of time, the man in black suddenly dropped a word in a certain direction, like a ravine rising from the ground, and the situation suddenly became strange...

Seeing this, the man in white on the left fell into deep thought, but before he could come up with any clever idea, a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared on the horizon...

Blood clouds are visible.

They both looked up at the same time.

"...something happened."

"...Let's go together."

"good."

After saying that, the two looked at each other and said solemnly, like a declaration: "For the sake of all the people in the world."
