Chapter 88 A Hair's Breadth Escape

The Way of the Extraordinary

On the stage, a figure in a gorgeous opera costume slowly emerged, her orchid fingers pinched, her phoenix eyes bright and piercing, gazing at Cai Qiao the Elder in the audience. Her voice was gentle and charming: "The past without a trace failed to impact Demigod, why only say it now?"

Cai Zhang the Elder bowed and said, "This subordinate only just received the news." He bowed his head, and a gorgeous skirt appeared in his field of vision. Then, his chin was lifted by a jade-like finger.

Silently, the owner of the Water God Palace teleported to Cai Zhang the Elder in front of the stage.

"Interesting. I just divined a hex with props, and the hex image is all normal. How did you know that the past without a trace failed to impact Demigod? Could it be that you, Cai Qinhe, can see through the secrets of Taiyin's hidden stars?"

That exquisitely beautiful face, painted with red and white, carried a faint, charming smile, but her eyes were as cold as water. "Cai Qinhe, it is very foolish to play tricks in front of me. You and I are both unfeeling people, but we are also people who hold grudges."

Her white and tender fingers stroked Cai Zhang the Elder's face, and she smiled, "My way of revenge is usually to send people back to The Way of the Extraordinary."

Cai Zhang the Elder's expression did not change, and he said straightforwardly: "Palace Master, Ling Tuo and the leader of the Southern Sect have joined forces to snipe the past without a trace. Ling Tuo has been planning for a long time, and the past without a trace will undoubtedly die. You should take action. The Demigod item cannot fall into the hands of the Southern Sect, otherwise it will be another Asura. Moreover, once the past without a trace goes mad, the people of Jinshan City will be in dire straits. Only your mirror image can isolate the Demigods from reality."

In front of Demigods, concealment and tricks are indeed meaningless. He did not intend to hide anything, but to be open and honest, to explain the pros and cons, and then let the Palace Master make her own decision.

The Demigod-level item and the lives of the people of Jinshan City were both things that the Palace Master could not ignore. Cai Zhang the Elder was sure that the Palace Master would take action, this was a blatant scheme.

As for calculating a Demigod and inviting punishment, that would be a matter for later. Of course, if the Palace Master could obtain the Demigod-level item, he would not only be blameless, but would also have made a great contribution.

In Cai Zhang the Elder's opinion, dealing with Yuan Shi Tian Zun was just a side issue. Competing for the Illusion God item was the main theme. If the Five Elements Alliance did not intervene, the Illusion God item of the past without a trace would ultimately fall into the hands of the Dark Night Rose and the Southern Sect.

The Water God Palace Master snorted softly: "The Lord of the Middle Court is asleep, and that little white tiger is strolling around in a copy. I will handle this matter with the Jiang family. As for your little thoughts, I will settle the score with you later."

Her body dissipated like foam, like a residual shadow.

Why is Zhao Xintong calling me for? Zhang Yuanqing did not avoid the Xie family's grandparents and answered the phone frankly.

"Yuan Shi Tian Zun," Zhao Xintong's weak and trembling voice rang out, "There is a Ruler, there is an official Ruler who wants to kill us. We have been discovered. Come and save us. We are at home."

"Beep beep, beep beep..." The call was cut off.

Zhang Yuanqing's scalp went numb, and the slight drunkenness instantly disappeared. He was found at home by an official Ruler? Why would a Ruler give her time to make a phone call? Cai Zhang the Elder is trying to replicate the plane ambush incident?

How did he locate Xiao Yuan? It's impossible to lock them down so quickly with just surveillance cameras. As his thoughts flashed, he felt a chill rising in his heart. Zhang Yuanqing suddenly stood up and said urgently: "Senior, something has happened to my friend. I need to leave immediately. I need help."

The old ancestor frowned slightly, looked at him, and said with a serious expression on her small face: "Are you sure you want to go? Have you forgotten your death tribulation?"

"I'm sure," Zhang Yuanqing did not hesitate.

The old ancestor shook her head slightly, "Deep love does not last long. Xie Su, you accompany him on this trip."

Xie Su stood up.

"Yes!"

At this time, Zhang Yuanqing had already taken out the matchbox, lit two matches in a row, and made a wish to obtain two teleportation jade talismans.

Then, he grabbed Little Red Riding Hood and summoned a level 4 Yin corpse to make a wish, obtaining the third teleportation jade talisman.

Then, he summoned his clone outside the courtyard and handed over the Five Elements Spiritual Power Experience Card, the "Sacrifice to Heaven Set," and the three teleportation jade talismans to him. After thinking about it, considering that the clone might need help, he also gave the Ghost Bride to the other party.

"Go and save them quickly," Zhang Yuanqing said in a deep voice.

The official Ruler clearly wanted to use Xiao Yuan to lure him to take action. Now that the goal had been achieved, it was very likely that they would kill Xiao Yuan and the others, so a strong expert must rush to support them immediately.

The clone nodded. The two were connected in heart and soul, and shared the same origin, so there was no need to explain anything.

Watching the clone disappear, Zhang Yuanqing looked at Xie Su again.

"Uncle Xie, take me to Chonghua Community in Jinshan City." The reason why he didn't use the teleportation jade talisman was because those two jade talismans had to be kept to save Xiao Yuan and Kou Beiyue.

Although he could also use Little Red Riding Hood to take them in, Zhang Yuanqing vaguely sensed the arrival of the killing tribulation.

If something happened to him, Xiao Yuan and Kou Beiyue in the hat would surely die.

He only left Xie Su, because Little Red Riding Hood could not accommodate The Way of the Extraordinary who exceeded her own level. Zhang Yuanqing was now at the peak of level six.

Xie Su grabbed a ball of red thread from the item bar, held the ball of red thread tightly, and whispered to himself: "Chonghua Community in Jinshan City!"

After saying that, he held one end of the thread and threw the ball of red thread into the distance. The red embroidered ball fell to the ground and rolled, rolled into the void, and disappeared, leaving only a thin red thread.

"Jinshan City is not far from Crab City. Hold the red thread, follow it, and you'll be there in two minutes," Xie Su said, leading the red thread further and further away, walking into the void.

Zhang Yuanqing suppressed the anxiety in his heart, picked up the red thread, and followed him into the void.

In the room, Zhao Xintong hung up the phone. She knew that she didn't have much time left. After discovering that the Life Essence was not working, she realized that her life was coming to an end.

So she hung up the phone. At the end of her life, she still had other things to do.

Zhao Xintong dialed her grandfather's phone.

Since losing her father in childhood, her grandfather had been the one who loved her the most. Her biological mother hated her, her stepfather abused her, and her lonely personality also made her classmates dislike her. The teachers often said: Although they are wrong, you must also think about your own problems.

Only her grandfather treated her like a treasure. Her grandfather said that she was a little angel. The phone rang for a long time, and finally connected: "Hello, Tongtong..."

Her grandfather's voice was still gentle and kind, but the girl on the bed had already closed her eyes, never to hear it again. Her last words could not be said in the end - Grandpa, the world is too bitter, I want to return to heaven.

"Cough cough, cough cough!"

Kou Beiyue coughed hoarsely, his head was dizzy, and as his consciousness became more and more blurred, the virus was eroding his body, causing his organs to constantly fail.

The Rain Master released the plague, easily destroying his body's functions.

Kou Beiyue crawled and rolled to Xiao Yuan's door, and with difficulty twisted open the door. He saw Xiao Yuan curled up at the door, her cheeks flushed, and her breath weak.

"Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yuan."

Kou Beiyue cried out and pushed her hard, like a helpless child.

Xiao Yuan's lips moved, and she said with difficulty, "Look, look at them."

"No need to look, one person in the room is dead, and the other is about to die. You two have the highest level and the best physique, you can still hold on for a while," A leisurely voice came from the living room.

Tongtong is dead. Kou Beiyue slumped down, and Xiao Yuan showed a sad expression. She looked at the shattered black jade in her palm.

Master Wuhen had no feedback.

"Old, Boss..." A weak call came from the opposite room, he didn't even have the strength to move, he could only make a desperate call.

Kou Beiyue tried his best to crawl towards the little fatty. The person on the sofa in the living room didn't stop him, watching like a cat playing with a mouse.

"Liangchen, I'm here, I'm here..." Kou Beiyue held his hand.

The little fatty opened his eyes with difficulty, and made a weak, hoarse voice: "Boss, save, save me."

"I will, I will." Kou Beiyue tremblingly took out a tube of diluted Life Essence, glanced back at the door, saw that the official Ruler hadn't come in, and nervously injected the Life Essence into the little fatty's body.

It was given to them by Yuan Shi Tian Zun. A tube of concentrated Life Essence was very rare, even the diluted one was a strategic material in the official.

However, the little fatty's body did not change in any way, and the light in his eyes gradually dimmed.

"Why is this happening, why is this happening..." Kou Beiyue became anxious and coughed, his eyes filled with bloodshot, like a patient with late-stage lung disease.

A chuckle came from the living room.

"The virus he has, the Life Essence can't cure it."

The light in Kou Beiyue's eyes dimmed, but the gray eyes of the little fatty actually rekindled with light.

"Old, Boss, I don't have much time left, listen to me, listen to me." The little fatty looked at him attentively, very seriously, and his voice had strength.

"I sensed it, I sensed his emotions, he is coming for Yuan Shi Tian Zun. He will not kill us all immediately, this is the only hope for you and Xiao Yuan, she has the highest level, you have the strongest physique, you will not die immediately, in a while, I will hold him back, I can hold him for two seconds, then, you immediately take Xiao Yuan away, you can't let Yuan Shi Tian Zun come over again, the Cai family will not let him go!"

His organs were already failing, and he could say so much, which was probably his final moment.

Kou Beiyue's eyes were red, "We'll die together."

"Boss, Boss, I've always listened to you, this time, listen to me, listen to me." The little fatty propped up his body and staggered out, "Give me a chance to atone for my sins, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't intentionally leak your information."

He, he rushed out of the room, he had always cared about this matter, like a tragic warrior, launching a charge against an invincible enemy.

"Plop!" Just after rushing out of the room, Liangchen Zezhu Ershi's body fell powerlessly, turning into a corpse.

But the unyielding soul broke free from the shackles of the body. As soon as the little fatty's spiritual body emerged, he reached out and grabbed an ugly little rag doll. The doll's eyes were simple, and the mouth was a line.

This was his trump card, a consumable item obtained from an A-level Saint dungeon - a Cursed Child.

It can release terrible curses, even a Ruler would not want to be unscathed, but the price of the curse is life.

"I curse you with my soul, I curse you to be scattered like me, and not to die a good death!" Yu Liangchen Zezhu Ershi said sharply.

The Cursed Child's mouth opened suddenly and swallowed Liangchen Zezhu Ershi's soul.

Immediately afterwards, black flames窜起 from the rag doll, burning rapidly楚, and in the next second, Nu Tao Wu Qing's body ashes窜起 black flames, burning his flesh, and also burning his soul.

Kou Beiyue burst into tears and didn't care about the sadness. He staggered out of the room, picked up the weapon that had fallen on the ground, and activated the weapon's Enchanting Demon Bloodthirsty Rage, which could temporarily suppress the negative effects of the disease.

He crashed open Xiao Yuan's room like a bull.

At the door, he saw her breathless and unconscious.

Kou Beiyue wrapped Xiao Yuan in his arms and rushed to the balcony with a fierce look, jumping off the high building.

However, he crashed into an invisible film. The film was made of water, blocking him, and was difficult to see with the naked eye, only visible when touched.

Kou Beiyue and Xiao Yuan were bounced back and fell to the ground.

Xiao Yuan woke up faintly.

"Ridiculous!" Nu Tao Wu Qing's voice came from the living room. He had already extinguished the flames on his body. The so-called trump card, a curse created by a level 4 Saint sacrificing his life, only made him hurt for a few seconds.

"What makes you think that I would forget to seal the residence and obediently wait here for Yuan Shi Tian Zun to rescue you? Of course, you may not live to see that time."

Kou Beiyue's face was full of despair, Xiao Yuan's consciousness was becoming more and more blurred, her heartbeat was becoming slower and slower. The body of a psychic cannot be compared to the demon of Gu.

She smelled the breath of death, and the past flashed before her eyes at this moment. Looking back on her life, there was too much unwillingness and regret, too much resentment and hatred.

But after meeting him, her heart gradually calmed down.

That night, if only she had let him stay overnight.

As she slowly closed her eyes, a figure appeared silently in front of her.

In the room, wearing bright yellow boots, a gorgeous robe, and a cyan jade belt around his waist, it was Yuan Shi Tian Zun.
