180|Copper Furnace will be a masterpiece!

His head is tilted to the side, seemingly unconscious. Seeing Lang Ying, Xie Ren subconsciously wants to go to save him, but quickly stops her footsteps and reacts: just now, there is obviously only Bai Wuxiang here, so how could Lang Ying suddenly appear?

Seeing that the originally unparalleled statue of Prince Yue was tarnished beyond recognition by the pattering blood, Hua Cheng was obviously very angry, his face sullen and furious, and the curved sword, Er Lifan, overflowed with coldness in his hand.

He said, word for word, “Get off.”

“Lang Ying’s crooked head really came back, opened his eyes and slowly “pulled” himself off the sword, falling to the ground.

Just now, after shattering the wave of silver butterflies that surrounded him, he took advantage of the flashes of silver light and hid under the white veil of the statue, transforming into the appearance of Lang Ying.

Since he could transform into Lang Ying’s appearance, he must have seen Lang Ying somewhere. Xie Ren said, “Where is the real Lang Ying?”

Hanagi, however, said, “Perhaps, there is no such thing as the ‘real Lang Ying’.”

If, from the very beginning, “Lang Ying” did not exist, but was just a state that Bai Wuxiang had not fully recovered from, things would be very easy to explain. However, Xie Ren remembered the little Ying girl who died in the mountain with Jun, and preferred that this argument would not work. He quickly thought of another possibility, slowly said: “Or perhaps …… he ate Lang Ying.”

The opposite side of the “Lang Ying” body is gradually lengthened, pulled up, the bandages on the face slowly fall off, revealing the sad and happy face inside, sniffing, slightly raised his head, seems to be smiling, said: “Guessed right.”

Sure enough.

After Bai Wuxiang was dispersed by Jun Wu, he left a wisp of his residual soul wandering the earth, not knowing how long he had been drifting around, and not knowing when he found Lang Ying, who was also in a ghostly body.

He must have compelled or hoodwinked Lang Ying in some way, causing Lang Ying to agree to let him board him, otherwise, with his remaining weak soul, he wouldn’t necessarily be able to devour Lang Ying.

And after he stuck to Lang Ying’s body, he slowly recovered, and the end result was what Xie Ren and Hua Cheng saw under their eyes, the ghost ate the ghost, and Bai Wuxing instead devoured Lang Ying as his host. Just like He Xuan eating the White Talking True Immortal, Lang Ying became his vassal instead.

Within a few moments, “Lang Ying” had completely transformed into Bai Wu Xiang’s appearance. Hua Cheng stared at him and said, “Why did Lang Ying agree to let you borrow his spiritual body?”

You know, this kind of thing is similar to a stranger asking “open the door of your house and let me go in to eat and live with you”. Lang Ying was at least a ghost who had lived for hundreds of years, and although he cowered, he wasn’t so stupid as to go this far. Bai Wu Xiang said in a warm voice, “Of course I can answer you. However, are you sure that the one next to you, wants me to say it here?”

Hua Cheng looked to the side. Xie Ren’s expression was slightly strange, and he actually did not notice his gaze at all. Bai Wu Xiang added, ”Surname Lang, Yong An, Human Face Epidemic. Why did you agree to let me eat him? Are you still not clear on why?”

Xie Ren’s face went white in a flash, veins bulging on the back of his hands as he chopped away with his sword and drank, “Shut up!”

Bai Wuxiang dodged and avoided the sword, the sword was actually “clang” sound, cutting the long sword held in the hands of his own idol.

This is good, the Prince Yue idol, the Prince’s sword has become a broken sword, this idol has also become a piece of handicraft. Xie Ren immediately came back to his senses, as if he had been poured a pot of cold water. Necromantic butterflies were enraged and swarmed up, Bai Wuxiang let out a series of nonchalant laughs, calmly, covering his face with his sleeve, no longer entangled, and quickly disappeared into the darkness. Xie Ren looked at the broken stone sword on the ground and subconsciously said to Hua Cheng, “Sorry ……”

Hua Cheng interrupted him, “Your Highness telling me you’re sorry, isn’t that funny? How about he’s gone?”

Xie Ren’s mind was slightly tranquilized and said, “Escaped? We can’t let him enter the copper furnace!”

The two of them chased out of the Ten Thousand Gods Cave and climbed back up to the snowy mountain. Just emerged a head, will feel a burst of ground shaking the mountain. Look upward, avalanche formation, compared to the party, there is no better, it seems to be buried in the snow below what things awakened, is gusting roar, to shake off the body of a thousand years of snow. Xie Ren said, “Is this still going up?!”

Hua Cheng tightly grabbed Xie Ren’s hand and said, “Just follow me!”

The duo went up against the torrent of ice and snow collapses. Although it was difficult and dangerous, almost taking one step forward and three steps back, they managed to avoid the fiercest snow and rock flows and countless ground pits, and rushed out a way up the mountain.

Finally climbed to the highest place, the top of the frozen mountain, thick frozen I don’t know how many layers, Xie Ren feel a little bit faster to slip, Hua Cheng but holding him steadily and walking, completely unafraid. The two came to the crater of the volcano, the crater seems to be a huge mouth roaring towards the sky, very spectacular. Looking down, it was pitch black. Xie Ren had some inexplicable palpitations, pressed the bucket hat on his head to prevent it from being blown away by the wind and snow, and said, “Has he gone in already?”

Hua Cheng only glanced at it, then condensed his expression and said, “It’s already inside.”

“What makes it so?”

“The copper furnace is closing.”

Xie Ren was startled and caught off guard, “What’s going on? It’s closed so soon? Didn’t we have to go in for a few ghosts to start killing each other inside?”

Hua Cheng said, “That is the general situation. However, if, for example, the copper furnace thinks that the entrant has great potential to break through the furnace, and that ghost has asked it to seal the mountain, it will also close it.” After a pause, he said, “In the beginning, that’s what I did.”

Xie Ren said, “Is he an absolute or not? What will happen to a ghost king who has become an absolute if he enters the copper furnace again?”

Hua Cheng said, “It’s the same as what happens when a Magus who has already ascended wants to experience another heavenly tribulation.”

In other words, strong is stronger!

If Bai Wuxiang was allowed to break through this barrier, the consequences would be unimaginable.

And when he breaks out of the copper furnace and comes out of the mountain, the first thing he will look for will inevitably be Xie Ren!

Staring at the bottomless, endless abyss for a while, Xie Ren slowly said, “Sanlang, I …… may have to go down and make a break.”

Hua Cheng said in a faint voice, “Get off. I’ll accompany you.”

Xie Ren raised his head to look at him, and Hua Cheng also raised his head to meet his eyes, raised one eyebrow and laughed, “It’s nothing more than going down and killing the one that’s in the way, and punching through the copper furnace once more. It doesn’t appear to be anything difficult.”

Seeing him so relaxed, Xie Ren’s originally tense mood couldn’t help but loosen up a bit, smiling slightly. Immediately afterward, Hua Cheng said, “However, there is one thing.”

Xie Ren: “?”

He slightly sidestepped his head, and Hua Cheng suddenly wrapped one hand around his waist and brought it into his arms, while the other hand gently lifted his jaw and contained his lips.

Kissing in the wind and snow for a long time, the lips of the two people slowly separated. Xie Ren stayed for a while, finally a jolt, woke up, reddened face, eyes open, “…… dry, do what suddenly?!”

Although it wasn’t the first time they had done this kind of thing, before they had used such grandiose reasons as “borrowing magical power”, “transmitting qi”, and “accidentally”. But now that they had opened up about certain things, these reasons were instantly revealed to be hypocritical, and the significance of this kind of thing was also very significant. He didn’t know where to put his hands. Should he grab Hanagi’s arm, push Hanagi’s chest, or block Hanagi’s face?

Flower City in his ear, seemed to slightly gasp, whispered, “…… I, first lend a little mana to your highness, just in case …… take it, okay?”

Xie Ren unconsciously swallowed his throat and stammered, “This, is this a little bit? it seems to be too much …… the previous ones are still, not yet paid off ……”

Hua Cheng said, “Not much. There is no need to be in a hurry. Pay it back slowly when you have time, you’ll always pay it off.”

Xie Ren made a few random “hmmmmmmmmmmmm” sounds and was about to run away when Hua Cheng pulled him back and reminded him: “Your Highness! Where are you running. The direction is wrong.”

Xie Ren then realized that he actually ran backward, immediately walked back, the soles of his feet still slipped on the ice, hurriedly pressed the bucket hat and said, “No, no. I, I’m just a bit cold, want to turn a few circles and warm up a bit ……”

He wore the bucket hat back and forth back and forth, and finally, grabbed Hua Cheng’s hand and held it tightly. The two of them were side by side, looking at the massive abyss below.

Hua Cheng said in a casual tone, “After it is settled, then I will show my brother the idol that I carved to my greatest satisfaction.”

Xie Ren said, “Good.”

After saying that, the two of them jumped together.

Whistling gusts of wind blew past their ears, and the powerful impact was like a giant wave crashing down on their faces, but the two men’s hands weren’t washed away, instead they held on tighter.

Who knows, in mid-air, Xie Ren’s hand suddenly grabbed an empty one.

It wasn’t that his hand slipped, or that he was shaken off by Hanagi, but suddenly, the hand that held his palm disappeared and was no longer physical.

Xie Ren’s heart tightened and he drank, “Sanlang?!”

He was falling rapidly, one moment just shouted out, the next moment the voice was more than ten feet away from his head, and it was very hard to hear. After an unknown amount of time, Xie Ren finally landed firmly on the ground. He immediately stood up and said, “Sanlang?”

No one answered. Only the empty echoes told him what an empty, vast space he was in at the moment.

It was pitch black in all directions, only above, and Xie Ren looked overhead. Above, there was a snow-white canopy that was gradually shrinking. That was the crater of the Copper Furnace, which was slowly closing.

But where has Flower City gone?

“Boom” sound, Xie Ren lifted up a palm flame, wanting to illuminate the bottom of the situation. However, the darkness was unfathomable, this little fire could not illuminate anything at all, and the firelight seemed to be absorbed by the darkness indifferently. Moreover, he was not careful, did not control the magic power, the flame was too high, almost burned his hair, and hurriedly threw the fire to one side of the ground. Coincidentally, that firelight just reflected a faint white back not far away. Xie Ren was instantly alert and said, “Who!”

The white back turned around and replied in a faint voice, “You know who I am.”

Despite the answer, the muscles in the man’s face didn’t move at all.

For, it was not a human face at all, but a mask half-crying, half-smiling.

Xie Ren said offhandedly, “Sanlang!”

Although he couldn’t control the creepy feeling and chills that ran down his back at the sight of the face, he shouted at the moment not out of fright but out of worry. Naturally, there was still no one to answer, and the sad and happy face came a few more points closer to him, saying, “There is no need to shout. The copper furnace has been closed, and here, there is only you and me, no third person.”

Xie Ren subconsciously looked at the sky again.

Whereas before there had been a small sliver of snow-white canopy left above, now that small sliver of light had been completely swallowed up by the darkness that surrounded it.

This also means that Copper Hearth, really, is closed.

How could Xie Ren not have expected that it would turn out to be the current situation?

He, and Bai Wu Xiang, the two of them, were locked in a copper furnace?

Both of them? Why would it be both of them?

Xie Ren held Fang Xin in her hand and pointed her sword at the white shadow, saying, “What the hell is going on here? Is it you again? Where is he? Where is he now?”

Bai Wuxiang clamped the Fangxin sword blade with two fingers on one hand, and with the other hand, he flicked on the blade, “Clang”, a clear and crisp sound, and said, “Let’s go.”

When Xie Ren saw this action of his, his gaze was slightly cold, and his bone joints clicked, saying, “…… You say it clearly, what do you mean by gone?”

Bai Wu Xiang leisurely said, “Don’t want to follow you, leave, die. Pick one.”

“……”

Xie Ren’s heart was first chilled, then a burst of violent anger surged up, and he chopped away with his sword: “You talk less nonsense!”

Bai Wu Xiang once again caught the sword blade with ease and said, “Alright, alright. I was indeed talking nonsense. There’s no need to worry, he’s already been sent beyond the copper furnace, and even if he rushes over now, he’ll be too late.”

Xie Ren was not afraid of rushing over, as long as Hua Cheng was fine, he secretly sighed in relief.

Bai Wu Xiang added, “However, it’s better if he doesn’t come in. Otherwise, even if he doesn’t have that idea now, it’s hard to say if he’ll still want to follow you after seeing you later.”

“……”

Xie Ren couldn’t bear it any longer, and with another sword, he drank, “Shut up!”

Bai Wu Xiang dodged each of his swords calmly, and Xie Ren said angrily, ”I’ve had enough of you, what do you want! What exactly do you want? Just how long are you going to pester me!!!! Why are you still alive? Why did you come to the Copper Furnace!”

Bai Wu Xiang said, “Because of you!”

Xie Ren’s movements lagged for a moment, gasped, and said, “What do you mean?”

Bai Wu Xiang replied calmly, “Because you have come, therefore, I have also come.”

Hearing this kind of answer, Xie Ren’s face twisted a little.

However, even if he was furious and his killing intent was heavy, Bai Wuxiang would always act as if he could anticipate how his next sword would come out, missing by a hair’s breadth. The more Xie Ren used his sword, the more he realized a cruel fact:

Can’t win!

“Yes.” As if he could see into his heart, Bai Wu Xiang said, “You can’t win.”

As soon as his words fell, he slashed at Xie Ren’s wrist with one hand. A sharp pain spread throughout his body, Xie Ren couldn’t help but let go of the sword, and then he grabbed his hair and slammed it into the ground with a hard hand!

The ears buzzed, the nose and mouth were bloody, and the brain was shaking.

It was a while before Xie Ren felt a hand lifting his head out of the broken ground, and a voice said from above, “Poor, poor.”

Xie Ren choked out a mouthful of blood, his vision blurred by blood and darkness. Bai Wu Xiang said, “Every time you see His Highness the Crown Prince, you always look like this. It’s heartbreaking and pleasurable.”

Xie Ren bit down on a mouthful of blood to keep it from choking out, and said in a mute voice, “…… Don’t be too complacent. Right now I can’t win against you, but …… someone else can. Even if you can get out of the copper furnace, Jun Wu may not be unable to kill you again.”

Not to mention, there’s Flower City!

Who knows, but Bai Wu Xiang said, “Who said it would be me coming out of the copper furnace?”

At those words, Xie Ren was stunned.

Not him? Who else could it be?

Bai Wu Xiang lifted his face up and locked eyes with him, saying in a warm voice, ”Your Highness, I think that you may have misunderstood. In this copper furnace, there will indeed be a Jedi going out, but it’s not me. Rather, it is you.”

Xie Ren was stunned, “…… What did you say? It’s not like I’m ……”

The words came back to him in a cold sweat.

Bai Wu Xiang said, “Exactly, congratulations, you finally understand my true purpose. Isn’t this your favorite ‘third way’?”

In the copper furnace now, there was only a ghost and a Magus, and it looked like there were only two ways out. Either Bai Wuxiang kills him and breaks through the copper furnace; or both of them don’t want to get out and are locked in this copper furnace together forever.

But, in fact, there is a third way.

As long as Xie Ren immediately committed suicide here, transformed into a ghost, and killed Bai Wuxiang, he would be able to become an absolute on the ground and break through the bronze furnace!

Xie Ren easily came back from the shock and said, “What …… do you want to do? You don’t have to think about it! Why did you have to go this far? Just to make me become absolute? I’m not as crazy as you are! Even if you want me to kill you, I can’t win! If you lose to me on purpose, the Copper Furnace might not even admit it!”

Bai Wuxiang, however, said, “Is that so? You can’t win against me? That’s not necessarily true.”

With that, he stretched out his other hand. With the light of the fire not far away, Xie Ren could see that a mask appeared on that hand, identical to the one on Bai Wu Xiang’s face.

Bai Wu Xiang said, “Remember this sad and happy face? It suits you.”

Xie Ren’s eyes widened instantly.

Fear was like a wave of worms, densely crawling up to his heart. He barely said, “…… Take it away, take it away …… Take it away!”

Bai Wuxiang laughed and said, “It looks like Your Highness the Crown Prince doesn’t have a good memory. In that case, let me help you think about it, okay?”

After speaking, without any further ado, he fused that miserable white face of sorrow and joy with the boundless darkness, and pressed it heavily towards Xie Ren’s face.
