44|Extreme Bliss and the Heart of the Earth Revisited

Xie Ren didn’t expect him to suddenly light a fire, there was no time to stop him. The firelight was extremely bright, reflecting the figure of a man in black.

The man in black leaned against the stone wall at the end of the road, his face was as white as paper, his black hair was disheveled, but his eyes in the disheveled hair were brilliant, as if they were two channels of burning ice. Although he was sitting cross-legged, a strong smell of blood in the air showed that he was really seriously injured, and it was clear that he had been imprisoned here. He said “no comment”, probably took them as people who came here to torture.

Shi Qingxuan saw the man’s face clearly and said, “It’s you!”

The man did not seem to have expected the visitor, stuttered for a moment, as if he also wanted to say “it’s you”, but finally held back. Xie Ren put away the Ruoxi that was secretly storing power, and said, “So you two know each other?”

After a few twists and turns finally found someone here, Shi Qingxuan showed a look of relief, and was about to reply, who knew that the man categorically said: “Do not know.”

Shi Qingxuan was furious at his words, pointing his folding fan at him, “Is knowing me something to be ashamed of? That’s not very nice of you to say, Ming, but I’m your best friend!”

The man flatly refused, “I don’t have any friends who would go around dressed like that.”

“……”

Shi Qingxuan is still wearing that tattered purple sarong, it really is …… unbearable to look at. Xie Ren wanted to laugh, thinking that someone would really use “someone’s best friend” to define themselves, which is probably also a characteristic of Shi Qingxuan’s person. On second thought, “Brother Ming”? Vaguely remembering that amongst the five divisions, the Earth Master’s name was Ming Yi, so Xie Ren said, “Could it be that this is the Earth Master?”

Shi Qingxuan said, “That’s him. You’ve seen it before.”

Xie Ren sized up Ming Yi and said, “Have I met before?” He didn’t seem to remember such a figure. Shi Qingxuan said, “I’ve seen it before.”

Ming Yi, however, said, “Never seen it.”

Shi Qingxuan heatedly said, “I’ve obviously seen it before! Last time at the Half Moon Pass, you guys can’t have forgotten so quickly, right?”

“……”

Looking at Ming Yi’s face that had turned from miserable white to iron blue, Xie Ren finally remembered. The last time they met at Half Moon Pass, wasn’t there another black-clothed woman beside Shi Qingxuan!

At that time, Hua Cheng said to him that this person was not a water master, but he was definitely one of the five masters of wind, water, rain, earth|thunder. Sure enough, Shi Qingxuan was not only keen on transforming the female form himself, he was also keen on dragging others to join him in transforming the female form. No wonder that black-clothed woman’s face was extremely pale at that time, as if she was disgusted. Remembering that before entering the ghost market this time, Shi Qingxuan had also encouraged him to “have fun together”, Xie Ren thought to himself, “Luckily, I was able to hold it together. He said, “Master Earth Master, did you send the Fire Dragon Xiaotian to ask for help?”

Ming Yi said, “It’s me.”

Finding the right person. Xie Ren nodded his head once and said, “I’m afraid that the Earth Master is not lightly injured, so hurry up and evacuate, we’ll talk about it afterward.”

Without saying a word, Shi Qingxuan squatted down and carried Ming Yi on his back, saying, “Alright then, let’s go!”

The three of them returned along the original road, Shi Qingxuan said while walking, “I explain brother, you did not say that you are very capable of fighting, we separated in the Half Moon Pass there when you still see you well, in just a few days how to beat into such a way? How did you get into trouble with the Blood Rain Detective?”

There was also a bit of gloating in his tone, and Xie Ren Xin said, “Well, this kind of way of speaking without fear of being punched, is really a good friend.” Ming Yi, however, seemed to be unable to stand hearing Shi Qingxuan speak anymore, and three words burst out, saying, “You shut up!”

But this was a question that Xie Ren also wanted to know, and asked in a different way, “Master Earth Master, why did Flower City make things difficult for you?”

Ming Yi didn’t tell him to shut up, but he didn’t answer either. Xie Ren sidelong look, he actually has closed his eyes. I think it is trapped in the underground torture for several days, the injury is quite serious, suddenly see the rescue army heart relief, finally can rest for a moment. Anyway, it is not urgent, then also do not wake him up. Three people ran up the steps, Xie Ren touched the dice and threw. I don’t know what points were thrown out in the darkness, only to hear a light sound in front of the “kah”, pulling open a slit, light from this slit through. Xie Ren pushed the door, and in his heart he was thinking: “I don’t know if I can make it in time to take Lang Ying away as well?” Unexpectedly, he stepped out, but stepped on an empty space.

With this footstep, Xie Ren immediately said, “Don’t come out!”

He flipped in the air and landed on a hard something or other. He was breathing a sigh of relief thinking that it was fortunate that he didn’t land on some mountain of swords and fire, but when he looked up again, he felt that the mountain of swords and fire might be a little better. Only to see Hua Cheng’s exceptionally handsome face just a stone’s throw away, raising one eyebrow, looking at him.

This time, the stone door opened, and with one foot in the air, he actually fell directly onto Flower City!

The place where they landed was surprisingly that armory. At this moment, Hua Cheng was sitting on the main seat of this armory, nonchalantly polishing the scimitar Early Life. Even when someone suddenly fell from the sky and landed on his lap, he only moved his hand away and stopped his wiping action, not really surprised, calmly looking at Xie Ren, seemingly waiting for him to give an explanation. Xie Ren, of course, could not give an explanation, and could only lie on his lap, hardened his eyes against him. Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he glanced to the side of someone, turned his head to see, that person was actually Lang Ying.

The bandaged teenager was sitting on the ground, very frightened, even holding his head in his hands and glaring at the two people over here. Why was Lang Ying also here? From the looks of it, Hua Cheng seemed to be interrogating him about something. Turning his eyes again, Xie Ren glimpsed one white boot of Shi Qingxuan above him stepping halfway out. In desperation, he grabbed Hua Cheng’s shoulders and said, “Offense!”

After saying that, he pounced on Hanagi.

This time he pounced, pounced Hua Cheng out of a ten feet away, and also rolled on the ground a few times, after rolling, he got up fiercely, Shi Qing Xuan had already jumped down with Ming Yi on his back, and landed peacefully, landing right on the place where Hua Cheng was originally sitting. Xie Ren then turned his face, Hua Cheng was still looking at him, and did not show any sign, only one side of the eyebrow raised even higher.

Xie Ren immediately leapt up and backed up a few feet, saying as he retreated, “Sorry, sorry.”

Lang Ying looked at Hua Cheng as if he was extremely scared and flung himself behind Xie Ren to hide. Xie Ren shielded him and said, “Sanlang, allow me to explain.”

Flower City said, “Well, I’m waiting.”

Shi Qingxuan said, “Wait, it’s the other way around, isn’t it? It’s only right that he should give you an explanation, this time the disappearance of the Magus is all his doing, Your Highness the Crown Prince be careful!”

This was really the last situation Xie Ren wanted to face. He gazed at Hua Cheng and said, “Sanlang, I don’t know what exactly is the misunderstanding that the Earth Master has with you, why don’t we calmly and peacefully calculate some things.”

The best case scenario would be for Flower City to let them go peacefully now. Although the earth master was injured, but after all, his life is not seriously impaired, and did not lack arms and legs, if this stops, not to intensify the situation. If Hua Cheng now let go, back to the Heavenly Court to resume orders, is to give up this face, Xie Ren also want to try to beg Jun Wu net open one side.

Who knows, but Hua Cheng said, “Earth Master? What Earth Master?”

After a pause, he said, “Oh, are you talking about the one that Wind Master is carrying? That’s just an untalented subordinate under me.”

Upon hearing this, both Xie Ren and Shi Qingxuan were stunned. Shi Qingxuan said, “This is clearly my Divine Officer of the Upper Heavenly Court, so why are you forcing a deer to be a horse?”

Hua Cheng laughed, “Then, I wonder why on earth you honorable Divine Magi of the Upper Heavenly Court are concealing your identity and condescending to come to me as a Ghost Envoy ah?”

Following the arc of Doom, swabbing out a silver moon, Hua Cheng added, ”If that person is really the Earth Master, then he is really patient, acting for ten years at a time. During these ten years, although I occasionally felt that something was not right with him, I never had any evidence. If I hadn’t gone to Half Moon Pass and bumped into him traveling with the Wind Master, I really wouldn’t have been completely sure.”

In an instant, Xie Ren’s mind turned electric.

So it is!

It turns out that the missing and trapped Earth Master is down to the fact that he has been hiding his true identity since ten years ago and has been working as a Ghost Envoy under Flower City!

–To put it bluntly, it is an undercover agent. Although Flower City occasionally felt that this subordinate was fishy, but because there was no evidence, they still left him behind for observation. And not long ago, the identity of the undercover agent of the Earth Master was dismantled by Flower City.

A few days ago on a trip to Half Moon Pass, Hua Cheng saw the Earth Master traveling with the Wind Master.

Although the Earth Master was encouraged by the Wind Master at that time to put on a female face, Hua Cheng still saw through the fake skin and realized that the black-clothed woman was the very same ghost messenger he suspected, locking her identity as one of the five masters.

After the conclusion of the matter of Half Moon Pass, Flower City left Bodhi Chestnut View, and I am afraid that it is precisely to find him to settle the score. It was probably on the way to be chased by Hua Cheng, and in a moment of desperation, Ming Yi cast a spell for help. Then, Jun Wu found Xie Ren and asked him to make this trip.

The magistrates of the heavenly realm do not work properly in the heavenly court, but disguise themselves to lurk in the ghost realm for decades, which is really a scandal. These hooks and quarrels and not to mention, but if you leave Ming Yi here to continue to be detained and tortured, really killed, the heaven and earth this beam can be a big knot, then the situation will not be more and more chaotic? To that day, no one can be alone. After thinking about it, Xie Ren can only say: “I understand. The fault of this matter lies with us. However, Sanlang, still hope that you can be lenient today.”

Hua Cheng gazed at him for a moment and said in a faint voice, “Your Highness, in fact, there are some things that it is better for you not to get too involved in.”

Suddenly, Shi Qingxuan said to the side, “The wind comes!”

As soon as his fan came out, a fierce wind whistled in the armory. The many weapons on the shelves on all sides vaguely trembled and buzzed. Xie Ren said, “Master Wind Master? We haven’t even made a move yet?”

Shi Qingxuan said, “I see ah you guys are the ones who won’t take the initiative, why don’t I be the villain. Wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind come!”

“Click” a loud noise, Xie Ren felt the top of his head fell rustling dust, looked up, but the roof was the wind topped up one side, prying up a huge crack.

The arsenal has no doors or windows, Shi Qingxuan intended not to attack, but actually wanted to directly pry open the roof and fly out!

Amidst the gale, Hua Cheng’s black hair and red clothes were also fluttering against the wind, but he did not move and laughed, “You have a fan, and coincidentally, so do I.”

Said, casually from the side of the weapon gerry take down a fan. That fan is small and exquisite, fan bone fan surface are made of pure gold, color beauty and calm, flower city will it in the hands of a few turns, a show, guffawing, killing air in a faction of elegance for no reason. Flip a fan, a strong wind with several points of silver light attack. The three averted, only to hear a storm like “dong dong” sound, turn around and look, there are rows and rows of gold foil nailed to the ground. This gold foil pieces of slender, nailed into the ground inches, visible sharpness of its sharpness, the force of the ruthless.

Every weapon in this arsenal was a magic treasure, and taking a handful of them at random had such a strong killing power!

Hua Cheng flipped his hand again, and another gust of golden powder wild wind came out. The wind power from Shi Qingxuan’s fan was strong, however the stronger it was, the more dangerous the situation became. This armory is only a large hall, limited area, part of the wind brought up by the wind master fan will rebound back in the room, hundreds and thousands of pieces of gold foil will be brought by the wind to dance and fly around them. Worried that the gold foil might hurt someone, Xie Ren protected Lang Ying and said, “Master Wind Master, stop for a moment!”

Those gold foils have several times rubbed Shi Qingxuan and Ming Yi flew through, Shi Qingxuan also want to stop, however, that the roof was driven by the wind he topped up, revealing a crack, at this time if stopped, the roof down, the previous work is over.

As soon as he landed on the ground, the man said in a loud voice, “Master Wind Master is sorry, I still can’t stay still!”

Shi Qingxuan was overjoyed and said, “Qianqiu came just in time this time!”

This young man shoulder carrying a heavy sword, the blade of the sword is wide enough to be a palm of an adult man, it is Lang Qianqiu. His heavy sword was golden, fixed his eyes and looked closely, but it was not a golden sword, just because the sword body absorbed those sharp and light gold foils, so densely pasted a layer, it appeared as if this huge sword was made of gold.

The iron used in the forging of Lang Qianqiu’s heavy sword was rare, taken from the heart of Magnetic Mountain, and had a strange ability to absorb metal. As long as the mana contained in the artifact did not exceed a certain limit, he held the hilt of the sword, and with his mind activated, he could adsorb the metal artifacts of others and melt and absorb them. Sure enough, within a short period of time, the layer of gold foil was absorbed by the heavy sword, and the layer of gold color disappeared without a trace. Seeing this, Hua Cheng laughed out loud, collected the gold foil fan and casually threw it to the back, saying, “The Heavenly Realm Divine Officials are actually so poor and without eyesight, refusing to let go of the gold when they see it?”

If this was about Xie Ren, he would have just pretended not to hear it. But he was talking about Lang Qianqiu, a royal aristocrat, who regarded money and treasures as dirt in his life, listening to his enemy’s ridicule like this, even though he knew that it was maliciously provoking him, he was very angry, and with his heavy sword raised, he slashed at Hua Cheng. Flower city scimitar in hand, one hand pulled a few silver flowers, calmly stand up the sword to meet the attack.

Lang Qianqiu this chop, spelled out the full force. He was a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers, but Xie Ren had seen the difference in strength between the two sides clearly. If his sword was really chopped down, he would definitely die!

Even though Shi Qingxuan, who didn’t use a sword, couldn’t see the exact difference, his flesh jumped and he shouted, “Qianqiu, don’t take it hard!!!”

But how can an arrow on the string, a thousand pounds, be stopped by a single drink?

Who knows, just as the blade and sword were about to meet, a dazzling to the extreme white light exploded inside the armory.

The white light was extremely large, almost enveloping the entire arsenal, and everyone’s sight was briefly lost. The only thing that could be seen was a dazzling white color. Xie Ren, however, was barely able to see it due to his early preparations, and with his right hand, he gathered all the mana he had borrowed from Shi Qingxuan, transformed it into a flame, and struck out in one direction!

An empty corner of the armory burst into flames majestically. Immediately afterward, Xie Ren flung out Ruo Xie, tying himself, Shi Qingxuan, Ming Yi, Lang Qianqiu, and Lang Ying together, and droned, “Master Wind Master, raise the wind upwards!”

Although Shi Qingxuan still couldn’t open his eyes, he did as he was told, his fan lifted upwards and swung violently, a tornado wind rose up from the ground, finally breaking through the roof that had been shaking!

Ruoxi bundled a group of five people, flying straight up into the sky. In mid-air, a number of people finally regained their eyesight, Shi Qingxuan saw a few feet below the fire in the sky, smoke rolling, actually that armory fire, he was afraid of Huacheng catch up again, backhand is a fan. This is the real “inciting the wind to ignite”, the wind brought the fire instantly rose, the fire jumped to the other room, half of the Joyful Place are burned into a reddish color!

Xie Ren easily caught Shi Qingxuan, who was desperately shaking his fan, and said, “Master Wind Master don’t fan anymore! If you fan it again, it’s going to burn out!”

Shi Qingxuan was grabbed by him and said, “Fine, fine, no more slapping, no more slapping, Your Highness the Crown Prince, let go of me! Your hand is too strong!”

The wind master withdrew his wind before Xie Ren let go of him and looked downward. In the midst of the red flames, Xie Ren still saw that crimson figure. Flying too high, he couldn’t really see it, but he intuited that at this very moment, Hua Cheng was standing there, looking up at him.

He didn’t catch up or try to put out the flames, he just stood there and let the blaze rage.

The street of the ghost market outside the Polar Place screamed in all directions, and the group of ghosts leaped and fled. Xie Ren felt a breathlessness, his voice was muffled, muttering, “I …… just wanted to start a little fire and drag it out a little, how did it turn out like this ……”

Thinking back to a short while ago, Hua Cheng leaned against the gate of that armory, half-jokingly, half-seriously saying that he would give this armory and all the weapons inside to him, but now they all fell into a sea of fire. It is true that many magic treasures are not afraid of fire, but there are also many magic treasures that are born with a taboo against fire, so I am afraid that they will be burned to ashes. And never thought that the fire would burn so fiercely all of a sudden, but also burned to the entire Extreme Bliss Place.

Even if Hanagi didn’t consider this place “home”, it was still his residence!

Seeing him so broken, Shi Qingxuan was also embarrassed and said, “Uh …… I am sorry Your Highness the Crown Prince! I didn’t think too much, I only thought to run away quickly, this matter is my fault, originally it was indeed only a little fire …… If Blood Rain Explorer looks for you to compensate him next time, you can just push my head. Don’t worry, how much I have to pay! Fear what are not afraid of no money!”

Where is this a question of compensation or not, Xie Ren closed his eyes, unable to speak. And Shi Qingxuan patted him on the shoulder, suddenly felt that his hand was wet and moist, there was also an unusually pungent smell of blood, turned around and looked, alarmed: “Your Highness, what happened to your hand!”

Xie Ren’s right hand was covered in blood. His entire arm was dyed with this blood, and the trembling could no longer be labeled as “slight”. However, his hands were still firmly tugging on the white silk, preventing the crowd from being blown apart in the gale. Shi Qingxuan said: “What’s wrong with you?!”

Xie Ren returned a little bit of God, barely regained his composure, shook his head and said, “It s okay …… a little bit of small injuries, just go up.”

Shi Qingxuan remembered and said, “That white light was you just now? Your Royal Highness, you separated the two of them?”

Xie Ren said, “I am a sword user after all.”

Shi Qingxuan’s guess was right. In the square, just before Hua Cheng and Lang Qianqiu’s swords were about to meet, Xie Ren dodged forward.

He casually took a sword from a weapon rack on the side and probed between this blade and sword, making a total of two moves.

In the first move, he first knocked back Lang Qianqiu’s heavy sword, and in the second move, he then blocked the scimitar Doom.

The force of these two moves was not only strong, but also controlled to an extremely subtle degree, which was why although both the knife and sword were blocked by Xie Ren, they did not rebound off the attacker himself.

Because, Xie Ren was sandwiched in the middle, and had already used that one sword, and one of his arms, to take both attacks as much as he could.

Lang Qianqiu’s heavy sword was fine, but Hua Cheng’s blade wind was truly unstoppable. The sword that Xie Ren casually drew out was naturally also a precious blade since it was collected by Hua Cheng in the armory, so the blades met and exploded in that huge burst of white light.

So two moves came next, the first strike against Lang Qianqiu’s heavy sword, Xie Ren this sword was struck out of the cracks; the second strike against the curved sword Doom, directly pulverized.

All the movements were completed in between the lightning, fast to the point where the eye could not see. Shi Qingxuan saw the miserable state of his right hand, and felt that this arm was only afraid to have been bloodied, and said, “Your Highness the Crown Prince you are also …… too raw, actually dare to use one hand to receive these two strokes!”

The Flower Crown Martial God had a sword in one hand and a flower in the other. He had only remembered the flower, but had forgotten that Xie Ren had ascended because of the sword.

Thinking about the close call just now, Shi Qingxuan said with palpitations in his heart, “Luckily, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came down so twice, otherwise Qianqiu would not know how many cuts he would have to give to the Blood Rain Scout.”

Strangely enough, although Lang Qianqiu on the side seemed to be intact, he looked stunned, as if his soul had flown away, and Shi Qingxuan said: ”Qianqiu? Qianqiu? What’s wrong with you? Wake up! What’s going on, your eyes were blinded by that light and you haven’t recovered yet?”

The group rode this gust of wind and finally flew up to the Immortal Capital. Even dragging their backs, they rushed through the Ascension Gate and ran straight to the Divine Martial Hall. Lang Ying could not enter the hall, and was casually placed in a side hall by Xie Ren. No one was on duty at the moment, so he shouted within the psychic formation, ”May I ask which Immortal Bureaucrat is present! Please hurry to the Divine Martial Hall! Matters are urgent, a Magus here has been injured!”

As he shouted on this side, Shi Qingxuan on the other side snapped his fingers and finally changed back into that white Daoist robe, waving his hand and scattering 100,000 merit, saying, “It’s the two Divine Magi!”

Xie Ren busily said, “Don’t be agitated, Master Wind Master, speak properly and don’t scatter the merits. Everyone will naturally come when they hear.”

Shi Qingxuan, however, said, “No, Your Highness the Crown Prince, you must know that dispersing merit is a hundred times faster than speaking properly!”

Not long afterward, a voice said from a distance, “Who’s hurt?”

When the voice said “who”, it was still in the distance, but when it said the last word, the person had already appeared, and it was Feng Xin. He entered the hall, looked at Xie Ren, and then at Lang Qianqiu, and his expression stagnated. Xie Ren said: ”I am not in any way. I’m afraid that the Earth Master is not lightly injured.”

After a moment of silence, Windsong said, “What happened to your right hand?”

At this time, another voice said, “So what if I’m injured, with so many Divine Officers in the Upper Heavenly Court, which one of their patrols is without color.”

This voice was already very gentle, warm and soft, but the words were not very pleasant, naturally, it was Mu Qing. He stepped into the Divine Martial Hall and also looked at Xie Ren before looking at Lang Qianqiu. However, his complexion was very different from Feng Xin’s, but he slightly raised an eyebrow, kind of like he was about to watch a good show. Seeing that Feng Xin had gone to look at Xie Ren’s arm, he leaned over to check on Ming Yi and said, “This is Lord Earth Master?”

During this period, many other magi came one after another. The Earth Master had always been a god who could not be seen or heard, and since it was the first time for almost all of them to see him, they had to look at him vigorously. All of them were confused and did not know why they were suddenly summoned here, but having received the merit of the Wind Master, they could not help but come over to take a look. Xie Ren said to Feng Xin, ”Many thanks. But it’s fine, it’ll be fine if you put it on its own.”

Feng Xin didn’t say much more and said, “Take care of yourself.”

Xie Ren whispered his thanks again, and when he turned around, he saw Lang Qianqiu staring blankly this way and asked, “Your Highness Tai Hua, what’s wrong with you?”

Feng Xin also sensed that Lang Qianqiu looked out of sorts and said, “Is His Highness Tai Hua injured somewhere as well?”

Xie Ren said, “I don’t think so. Let me take a look.” Saying this, he stretched out a hand and probed towards Lang Qianqiu’s brow. Who knows, Lang Qianqiu was quick on his feet and grabbed his wrist.

Although Lang Qianqiu’s face still looked somewhat hesitant, as if he had discovered something and couldn’t be sure, there were already flames burning in his eyes. Xie Ren felt a shiver of anger travel from his arm to his own.

Now, the surrounding Magi sensed that the situation was abnormal and whispered and exchanged words. Shi Qingxuan and Mu情 both stood up, and Feng Xin said, “Your Highness Tai Hua, what are you doing?”

Lang Qianqiu finally spoke. He only said two words, but heard Xie Ren’s heart sink straight to the bottom.

He gritted his teeth and said, “…… State Master?”

Xie Ren’s pupils contracted slightly.

Some of the onlookers were confused and asked quietly, “What Master of the Kingdom? Who is the State Master?” Some of them were so meticulous that they immediately made sense of it.

Lang Qianqiu is the crown prince of Yongan country, and the Yongan country’s national teacher of the same generation as him is the other one of the double teachers of the demonic path, the Fangxin national teacher, and no one knows what the identity and origin of this person is. At this moment, Lang Qianqiu grabbed Xie Ren, shouting him “national master”, this is not to say …… that Xie Ren is the scourge of the country’s demon road – Fangxin national master?

However, Xie Ren was the Crown Prince of the Xian Le Kingdom, and the Xian Le Kingdom was destroyed by the Yong An Kingdom, so how could he be the State Master of the Yong An Kingdom?

His Highness Tai Hua in the upper heavenly court is famous for cheerfulness and joy, consistently no heart, and never make things difficult for people, and never showed such a look, like sadness like anger, like hatred like hate.

Lang Qianqiu dead grasp Xie Ren, chest sharp rise and fall, barely before saying, “You …… I clearly personally killed you, personally sealed you into the coffin, you …… state master, you really magical ah!”

It’s no good. I’m afraid something big is going to happen today!
