C46

There was a quiet courtyard outside the palace, and Ding Hong was currently in this courtyard's room. When he woke up a moment ago, he discovered that his clothes had been replaced with a set of luxurious red clothes. He was originally a bit surprised, but when he saw the bronze mirror in front of him, he immediately saw everything. Angele stood up and looked at himself in the mirror.

The mask had already been removed and placed to the side. The person in the mirror revealed Ding Hong's face.

The left side of his face was still as handsome as it always was, but the right side …

It was pitch black from the eyebrows down to the cheekbones. His skin and flesh were entwined.

Ding Hong himself did not know what kind of feeling he should have.

He couldn't figure out what was going on in his mind. He was originally a easy-going person, and after that, he even comprehended the "Heart of Tranquil Water" realm, allowing most things to happen naturally. In addition, he had spent two years in Penglai's residence meditating on the Yin-Yang Diagram, and he knew exactly how it felt for all things to follow the path of the Dao.

But even so, he was still a little unable to accept his current appearance. But in the blink of an eye, losing half a face was much better than losing his entire life, right?

"Dong Dong", two knocks sounded from the door.

Ding Hong stood up and took a deep look at his face through his glasses. He shook his head and walked to the door and found it open. The sound was simply a sign of courtesy. In front of the door stood two peerless beauties and a charming little girl.

Ding Hong looked at them. They were also quietly sizing up Ding Hong.

From their point of view, they could see the burning flesh on the right side of Ding Hong's face. Although it looked disgusting and terrifying, they could not see any dissatisfaction or vexation from him.

Chu Yao was slightly surprised and said, "I, Chu Yao, have the temerity to visit Young Master. Please forgive me Young Master."

Ding Hong was looking at Xi Feng at first, but he saw that her expression was a little mixed, and it was unknown what she was thinking. Hearing Chu Yao's words, he shook his head and said, "What presumptuous words. If it weren't for you saving me, I might really have reported to Yama Minamiya. Come in." He stepped aside and made a gesture of invitation.

Listening to his tone and expression when he spoke, Chu Yao was even more surprised that Ding Hong didn't feel any anger or inferiority from the destruction of his face.

Chu Yao looked at Xi Feng. She really wanted to know the background of this young man in front of her. Seeing Ding Hong's politeness, Lian Nan, who was shouting, felt a little embarrassed.

The few of them led the way and walked in together.

The room was divided into a side room and a bedroom. Two tables and three chairs were placed on each side of the room.

When Ding Hong saw them enter, he cupped his hands together and said, "Also, show me some gratitude for saving your lives." Even if he didn't know what was going on, he still knew that it had something to do with the person in front of him.

Chu Yao waved her hand and said, "Don't say that. If it wasn't for young master, Xi Huang wouldn't have come back."

You can't come back? When he heard this, he felt a sense of curiosity and asked, "May I know where we are?"

"This is the Sun Realm." Xi Feng continued.

Ding Hong looked at her with a frown and said, "What kind of place is the Sun Realm?"

Xi Feng was stunned. It really was difficult to answer his question. Seeing her like this, Chu Yao said, "This Sun World is a world of its own. It was created by a capable man of power in this world. The Fusang Inner City is similar to this place in many ways." As if she had thought of something, she continued, "These things were recorded in books in the mortal world. However, due to an accident, most of the books that were recorded in the ancient, ancient, ancient, and recent history were combined and burned by someone. That's why very few people know about it today."

Even though it sounded mysterious, Ding Hong was not in a good mood, and he was not in the mood to think about other things. He sighed from the bottom of his heart. He hadn't thought that he would waste so many chapters just for a 'Ever-Flame Sword'. The difficulty of the remaining seven chapters could be imagined! It was just that he had thought that the Ever-Flame Sword had been cast, but the sudden appearance of the final fiery-red stone had completely disrupted his following steps. In the end, the stone had suddenly flown in and caused him to look like this. However, when Ding Hong thought of this, he suddenly felt gratified. Fortunately, his hair was not burnt …

He wasn't sure of the appearance of the Ever-Flame Sword, nor did he have the time to check it out.

Seeing that his mind wasn't here, the smart Chu Yao and Xi Feng could tell what he was thinking at the moment.

Ding Hong returned to his senses and saw the sympathy in their eyes, especially from Chu Yao. He couldn't help but smile as he said, "I am just depressed. I don't have any other thoughts, so why are you all looking at me like that?"

Xi Feng coughed a few times and said, "Are you really okay?"

Ding Hong laughed, "As long as Princess Yu Die doesn't pursue the matter and I follow you into that pavilion, I will naturally be fine."

Just as he wanted to say something, he suddenly remembered that day when he had just awakened his spirit fire. When he came out of the pavilion, he was hit by Ding Hong and his entire body was seen through.

Seeing Xi Feng like this, she thought she was still injured and quickly said: "Xi Feng, are you alright?"

Xi Feng took this chance to descend and said: "Yes, I think so, then I'll go back first." Without waiting for an answer, she left.

Chu Yao looked at Xi Feng strangely and smiled apologetically at Ding Hong.

Ding Hong seemed to have thought of the reason that Xi Huang acted like this just now and felt a little embarrassed. He coughed a few times and said, "Thank you for saving my life, Lady Yuyao."

Chu Yao shook her head and said, "I've already said this, you and me owe each other nothing. "You saved Xi Feng once, we saved you once."

Ding Hong nodded his head. This matter did not sound too bad, and he did not leave behind any kindness. Thinking that staying here for a long time would not be a big deal, he asked, "That's for the best, but I seem to have been unconscious for a long time."

Chu Yao said, "According to the time on earth, today should be September 20th. Young Master must have been asleep for the 17th."

Ding Hong was startled. He never thought that after being unconscious for such a long time, he would have wasted so much time. When he had just woken up, he had checked his body and discovered that he didn't feel uncomfortable in any part of his body. Moreover, he felt a type of spiritual energy that would occasionally release and absorb on his skin, circulating faintly. When he realized that he had nothing better to do, he should have left by now. He said, "This humble one has stayed here for a long time. I wonder if it is possible for me to leave?"

Chu Yao frowned, "Of course you can, but why did Young Master stay here for a few more days to recuperate?"

Ding Hong replied, "No need, I have some things to do, so it won't be troublesome."

Chu Yao looked at him and did not discriminate against Ding Hong's looks. She kindly said, "Young Master, there are still some medicinal herbs in the Sun World. Who knows..."

Ding Hong shook his head. From his bosom, he took out a brush mask. After looking at it carefully, he suddenly made up his mind and put it on his face. On the right side of the mask was a large foggy area, which happened to be tightly covering the destroyed area on his right side. He smiled and said, "Isn't that good enough?"

Seeing him like this, Chu Yao could only say, "Since Young Master is so, then I won't say much more. I wonder when Young Master will leave."

Ding Hong's eyes lit up as if they had a new ray of hope. He said, "Now."

When he put on the mask, the last thoughts about his appearance vanished without a trace. He had to give up a mere piece of skin, so why did he care so much?

He had seen the illusion earlier, and that golden butterfly mask had been burnt to a crisp. He probably couldn't use it, but it was a pity that it was a good magic treasure. Once he put on the mask, it meant that he had become the man of his time and tribulation. It meant that he had become someone else. He no longer had to worry about his own face.

Seeing him speak like that, Chu Yao didn't have any further words to persuade him. She said, "Young Master has been unconscious for more than ten days, and although he has given you supplements during that time, you are still too weak. You should eat and then leave, right? And let me go and tell the Virgin. "

When he thought of leaving in such a hurry, he felt that something wasn't right. He apologized, "Thank you for your help."

Chu Yao smiled, "The meal will be served soon, so I'll be leaving now."

Ding Hong cupped his hands.

Chu Yao left the house and the yard. She called a waiter to give her some orders and then went back to the main hall. After bowing in the main hall, she said, "Holy Mother, that young master wants to leave."

After a while, the empty hall suddenly lit up with a faint flame, and the voice of the Ninth Heaven's Holy Mother came from inside, "Oh? Why is he thinking of leaving right after waking up? "

Chu Yao said, "Chu Yao doesn't know."

After a while, the Nine Heavens Goddess slowly said, "Let him stay."

Chu Yao stared blankly for a moment before asking in puzzlement, "Since he insisted on leaving, why did the Holy Mother force him to stay?"

The voice slowly said, "The sword formation he is cultivating is extremely strange, it allows him to use all the good fortune in heaven and earth. It was one thing if he was unable to complete the casting process, but once he did … I couldn't tell you then. However, his thoughts are currently muddleheaded, and if he is not able to sort things out for him, then he will become a disaster in the future! "

Hearing the Ninth Heaven say this, Chu Yao's heart trembled. She bowed and said, "Sorry for the intrusion."

The voice said, "Go and keep him here first, or you can go and find him when I'm done! "If there's nothing else, then leave."

Chu Yao bowed and said, "Got it, Chu Yao will be leaving now."

With that, he turned and left the hall.

Ding Hong, who was sitting in the room, did not know about these things. After eating the meal that was delivered, he took out the burned illusions and carefully examined them.

After hearing about it for a period of time, he roughly understood that this illusion should have been made by an elder of the Heavenly Palace when he was young. However, judging from its magical equipment, it should be pretty good. To be burnt like this, Ding Hong couldn't help but touch the scar on his face, secretly rejoicing.

After a while, Chu Yao suddenly asked from outside, "Is Young Master in?"

When Ding Hong saw her, he smiled and said, "Of course I'm here."

Chu Yao looked at him and said, "The Holy Mother said to let you rest here first. She'll come find you later to talk about some matters."

Ever since Ding Hong arrived, he had heard them talk about the Virgin, but he had no idea who she was. He couldn't help but ask, "Who is this Holy Mother?"

Chu Yao said, "The Holy Mother is the Realm Lord of the Sun, the Holy Mother of the Nine Heavens."

Ding Hong frowned and said, "You once said that the Sun Realm and the inner city of Fusang have the same way of doing things. I wonder how big this inner city and the inner city of Fusang are?"

Chu Yao thought for a moment, then said, "I don't know about the Fusang Inner City. The Sun World spans over a hundred thousand feet, stretching over a hundred thousand feet."

Hearing such a big statement, Ding Hong couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. How much cultivation did the creator of this place need to be to be able to do such a thing? He could not help but feel a little envious.

Ding Hong cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, young lady."

Chu Yao waved her hand and said, "No need, I have already spoken with Chu Yao, so I will be leaving first."

Ding Hong said, "Yes."

The Sun World was filled with sunlight all day long, but it was as if the sun was not in the human world. Because the light was light red, the whole place seemed red. Ding Hong didn't know how long he sat in the room, but it felt as though many years had passed.

Suddenly, the air in front of Ding Hong fluctuated. A masked woman wearing a long red dress and a golden phoenix hairstyle walked out from the void.

Presumably, this was the Ninth Heaven's Holy Mother. Ding Hong did not dare to neglect his etiquette and bowed, "Holy Mother."

Nine Heavens Holy Daughter nodded: "Come with me." With a wave of her hand, a vortex of fire appeared before her. As soon as the door opened, she walked in.

Ding Hong hesitated for a moment before he followed him in. When they entered the flame door, the flame didn't have any heat, but it felt soft when it touched his body.

After passing through the flaming door, they arrived at a desolate little village.

The surrounding weeds were growing everywhere, and the houses were old and worn out. Even so, there were still many people wandering around in the houses. Many people walked past him and the Nine Heavens Goddess, but they only gave them a numb look. They weren't surprised that they would suddenly appear here.

Ding Hong did not know why the Nine Heavens Goddess brought him here. Just as he was about to ask, the Nine Heavens Goddess said, "Follow me." As he spoke, he walked forward. Hearing her words, Ding Hong could only follow her.

There was wind, a very strong wind, blowing up the dust, also blowing up many random hit on the roof of the straw shelter rain.

When they reached the middle of the road, the Nine Heavens Goddess stopped and indifferently said, "Look at them."

He glanced at the people around him. Their expressions were numb, cold, and stupid. They didn't seem human at all. And in some corners, there were actually people gnawing on something that looked like human limbs. Suddenly, a few fierce-looking men with sabers ran out from a nearby street. They opened the paper in their hands and started flipping through it. Suddenly, they pointed at an old man and shouted, "This is the thief! Arrest him and bring him back!"

"Alright!" The big guys behind him answered loudly. Soon after, they all went up to catch the old man. The old man was frightened and shouted, "What are you doing, what are you doing!"

The leader coldly snorted and said, "Did you break into the Li Residence yesterday night and steal a piece of its porcelain? Someone saw your face and drew you. Look! " As he spoke, he opened a piece of yellowed paper in his hand, on which was drawn a skinny old man.

The old man widened his eyes and shouted, "No …"

Before he could even finish his words, the big man fiercely slapped his throat. His voice suddenly became hoarse and he was unable to speak. After that, the several big men laughed out loud. One of them said, "To be delivered to the government office would require earning some money."

"That's right!" A slightly shorter man answered.

Seeing this scene, Ding Hong's heart was filled with anger. Just as he was about to step forward and argue, the surrounding scenery suddenly shattered like a mirror. The fragmented fragments then turned and formed a different scene. As soon as the scene appeared, the Nine Heavens Goddess suddenly disappeared.

He was on the street in front of a building. The sky was dark, and it was already night.

There were very few pedestrians on the street; it was very dark. However, lanterns hung all over the building, making it look extremely bustling.

"Heh, Fifth Brother Tang, you came on time." A well-dressed youth suddenly patted his shoulder.

"

Ding Hong was stunned. He turned his head to look at the young man and asked, "Who are you?"

The young man was surprised for a second, then he laughed and said: "Oh, Brother Tang, could it be that you want to have a meal with the Courtesan Belle of the Smoky Jade Pavilion alone tonight?"

Ding Hong raised his hand and opened the hand that was placed on his shoulder. He frowned and said, "I really don't know you!"

The young man was not angry, and only smiled: "Alright, alright, Fifth Brother Tang, you don't know me, Li Cheng, right? Come, come, come. Let's go in, let's go in. "

Ding Hong looked at the pavilion in front and knew that it was the land of flowers and dust. His disgust deepened as he used some strength in his hand to push Li Cheng to the side. Who would have thought that after his palm landed on Li Cheng, it was as if he had hit the water. After that, Li Cheng let out a "puchi" and turned into water, scattering in all directions.

With this dispersal, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed as well.

The sky was white, and a lotus leaf was beneath his feet. The water around him was vast, but there was only black and white, as if he was drawing an ink painting.

After a moment, the lotus leaf that Ding Hong was on involuntarily moved forward.

When he thought of the successive scenes before him, Ding Hong's eyes flashed. He knew that the Nine Heavens Goddess must be trying to prove something to him. Even though it looked simple, Ding Hong felt that there must be some other secrets behind it.

Suddenly, the sound of a zither could be heard. Ding Hong looked over at the source of the sound and saw that there was a small pavilion on the distant water waves. Inside the pavilion, a girl dressed in green was fiddling with her zither.
