CH 196

Liao Sufan stared at the black fog as his hand smoothly pulled Bai Lixin behind him.

The black fog had hit the ground hard and dissipated a bit. Bai Lixin and Liao Sufan could vaguely see a person wrapped in it. The person in the black mist got up from the ground, and with a wave of his hand, more black mist wrapped around him again.

Bai Lixin and Liao Sufan looked at each other. Bai Lixin pulled out three talismans from his sleeve and sandwiched them between his index and middle fingers. The talismans flew to Liao Sufan as they wrapped together and formed a sword.

Liao Sufan gripped the hilt of the sword and rushed into the black fog. Bai Lixin outside the black fog did not forget to channel mana into Liao Sufan’s sword.

With the mana and Liao Sufan’s Heavenly Yang Qi, Bai Lixin soon heard a painful cry from the black mist, and a figure was beaten out. With the figure out, the black fog was no longer as terrifying as it had been, and with a purification spell, Bai Lixin made the black fog dissipate.

Liao Sufan and Bai Lixin looked at the man who had fallen to the ground. The man was wearing a golden Qin Dynasty robe embroidered with a phoenix with its wings spread.

The man in the phoenix robe was staring angrily at them. His eyebrows extended to his ears in a sinister manner, and his face was covered in strange runes. His lips were delicately lustful. It was surprisingly Fang Xuelin, who had been missing for several days.

“Fang Xuelin?” Liao Sufan held his sword against his throat, “What have you done this time?”

Fang Xuelin looked at Liao Sufan’s disgusted and cold expression, and he tilted his head as he laughed angrily, “What do you think I’m doing?”

A red glint appeared in his eyes and he laughed in an extremely hideous manner, “Liao Sufan, I’ve been so devoted to you, but you have hurt me more than once. If I hadn’t been intolerant every time you hurt me, how could you have gotten away with it? ”

Bai Lixin raised his eyebrow and gave a “bah” at the ruins, ” Your infatuation is your business. Does Liao Sufan have to reciprocate by force? Are you stupid? You’re retarded. No wonder you are played and treated as a puppet by others. ”

“Ah!!! You don’t deserve to talk to me. Shut up!!!” Fang Xuelin, who was looking at Liao Sufan with some sense, went crazy as soon as he heard Bai Lixin’s voice, “You bitch! I don’t know what you used to seduce Liao Sufan! If it wasn’t for you…if it wasn’t for you! It’s all your fault!!!”

The red in his eyes deepened and slowly turned to black, and the runes on his face began to spread.

Just as he was about to summon the black fog, he fell unconscious. Another black fog suddenly gushed out of the well. The black fog was so aggressive that Bai Lixin hurriedly pulled Liao Sufan back.

They were forced back, but the black mist did not pursue them. It stayed by Fang Xuelin’s side before gradually dispersing, and another figure appeared from the mist.

The man’s hair reached his heels and snaked to the ground. He looked so pale, with extremely heavy dark circles under his eyes, looking a little dishevelled. The man was handsome, and his face, like Fang Xuelin’s, had strange runes on it. He was dressed in a golden dragon robe, and he took the fallen Fang Xuelin in his arms.

With a light touch on the already unconscious Fang Xuelin’s forehead, Bai Lixin and Liao Sufan saw a black mist slowly draw out.

The man looked at Fang Xuelin with an extremely gentle gaze, but there was a vague evil aura in his eyes. Bai Lixin looked at the man who appeared out of thin air and then at the dragon robe he was wearing, and the name of a person suddenly popped up in his mind. Liao Sufan frowned at Bai Lixin, and they both saw the surprise in each other’s eyes.

The man held Fang Xuelin in his arms and slowly floated up. He looked down at Bai Lixin and Liao Sufan. “Are you the ones who beat my empress to the point of bruising his body?”

Bai Lixin spread talismans around his body and Liao Sufan’s, and asked in return, “The Heavenly Sea King?”

The man sneered, “You have some insight, but I will let you go today.”

After dropping his fierce words, the Heavenly Sea King did not stay long. He held Fang Xuelin in his arms and summoned the black mist again, returning to the ancient well.

After they returned to the well, the black fog that had erupted like a volcano disappeared as if it had no energy.

During the interval, Huang Hongyuan, Peach, and the bean soldiers had rescued about twenty people from under the crushed ruins, all of whom were almost dying but still breathing.

The black clouds had been brewing for a long time, and a rainstorm was slowly falling. But Bai Lixin’s paper children had already opened a huge barrier over Fengcheng, blocking out all the miasma and rain.

The black clouds gradually dissipated and the rain stopped after only five minutes. The sky cleared again and a seven-coloured rainbow even appeared.

Bai Lixin looked at the dark, bottomless well, and then looked down at the paper man in his hand, and finally gave up the temptation after some thought.

The Heavenly Sea King was so powerful that if he used the paper children to test him, he would only get angry and provoked.

“According to historical records, I remember that he was only a vassal king. Since he was just a vassal king, how come he was wearing a dragon robe?” Liao Sufan gazed at Bai Lixin and voiced out the doubt in his heart.

“That is what I am also wondering. There are many ancient books in the museum. Let’s go and check if there are any historical records about the Sea Heavenly King. ”

Liao Sufan nodded, “Okay.”

……

Down the ancient well was a winding snake-like passage, and as it continued, a huge ancient palace appeared, with four large characters written in small seal script: Heavenly Sea King Palace.

When the Heavenly Sea King stepped into the palace with the unconscious Fang Xuelin in his arms, a mouthful of black blood suddenly spurted out. The black blood landed on the ground and meandered like a worm before soaking into the ground below.

Only after entering the palace did the runes slowly dissipate from his face, revealing a handsome, bloodless face.

He leaned down and kissed the unconscious Fang Xuelin affectionately, sending a mouthful of black Qi into his mouth. Fang Xuelin then opened his eyes with a cry.

“You’re awake.” The Heavenly Sea King tenderly traced Fang Xuelin’s face with his hand, with tenderness in his eyes.

However, Fang Xuelin frowned and pushed him away, taking two steps back, “Don’t touch me.”

Fang Xuelin looked around the dark palace and fell to the ground, slowly recalling the scene of that day.

Taking advantage of the night, he entered the Wang family’s courtyard through the back door. He charmed Wang Baiqian and allowed the Jade Soul to absorb all the aura in the Wang residence. Although Wang Baiqian was being controlled, he was different from the others in a few ways.

When others were controlled, their eyes were dull and they only nodded their heads and did things. But Wang Baiqian was very respectful, calling him “master”. Fang Xuelin only took it as an effect of the golden pupil evolving and thought nothing of it.

He later found out that he was being looked for by the police, and that he would be spotted immediately.

Since the Wang family was under his control, he decided to stay in the house and gave excuses whenever the police wanted to search. While he was at it, he realised that the gambling stones were not shipped from overseas or even from another country. They were simply dug out from under the Wang family courtyard!

Many gambling stones were casually placed outside the well, and when he leaned down to look at the bottom of the well, all he could see was pitch black.

When he poked his head into the opening of the well, he felt that a voice kept calling to him. Although the voice was familiar, it made him feel a little scared. Just as he was about to pull his head back, he felt a force push him and he fell down the well.

As he fell, Fang Xuelin only had time to glance up, and he saw Wang Baiqian with a smile on his face, saying respectfully, “Please reunite with the master of the Wang family.”

He did not experience the expected pain when he fell to the bottom of the well; it was as if something soft and fluffy had caught him. He reached out to touch it, but could not feel anything. The soft mass carried Fang Xuelin forward until he came to this palace.

In the palace, above the great hall, sat a handsome man on a solemn dragon chair.

He was dressed in dragon robes, with a black mist faintly appearing in his eyes.

It was then that Fang Xuelin could see that it was a black mist that was holding him up. It directly lifted Fang Xuelin to the man. “Taiyi, my queen, I finally see you again,” the man exclaimed before Fang Xuelin had a chance to react.

Fang Xuelin was shocked by the underground palace, the thousands of year-old attire, the cold body holding him, the strange name, and the weird black aura.

The man holding him… was he human after all?

“Four thousand years… four thousand years, and I finally see you again,” the man said as he clutched Fang Xuelin in his arms. “Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for you? Even if you were reincarnated as a man, I still love you deeply. ”
