Chapter 262: More danger than good
Chapter 262: More danger than good
"Ah!" Helian Ziyu screamed, and following Yi Mobao's movements, he twisted his body and hid to the side.
Yi Mobao held a silver needle and threw it at Helian Ziyu.
Seeing that Helian Ziyu dodged several times but was still stabbed by him, Yi Mobao sneered: "Helian Ziyu, who gave you the illusion that you could be my opponent?"
A strong sense of unwillingness emanated from the depths of his eyes, and Helian Ziyu took a deep look at the perfect Yi Mobao.
One day, he will definitely defeat Yi Mobao.
Thinking of this, Helian Ziyu turned around and was about to run, but happened to meet Ji Chilian who was chasing him.
Looking at Ji Chilian's approaching handsome face, Helian Ziyu felt as if he had seen the god of death. He turned sideways but had no time to dodge and was pierced through the shoulder by the sword.
As his body was lifted up, Helian Ziyu's back hit the mountain wall behind him hard, and the pain made him dizzy.
"Who is behind you?" Ji Chilian did not draw out the blade immediately, but stared at Helian Ziyu and asked.
Helian Ziyu felt the threat of death and begged for mercy: "I am willing to tell you everything, please let me go first, you hurt me so much, I don't even have the chance to think!"
"Don't listen to his nonsense. If he has the energy to delay time here, can't he just tell us who is the mastermind behind this?" Yi Mobao immediately exposed Helian Ziyu's little thoughts.
Helian Ziyu glanced at Yi Mobao with resentment.
He wasn't actually lying, because he was in so much pain, the sharp blade was stuck right in his shoulder blade.
His fragile bones supported the weight of his entire body, and he was pressed against the bed like a pig waiting to be slaughtered.
"I don't know who that person is. I only know that woman's name is Jinghua. It was Jinghua and her master who sent the Dragon Shadow Guard to save me at that time..." Helian Ziyu saw Ji Chilian narrowed his eyes and immediately said, "I know where Jinghua is. I can take you to see that woman."
boom--!
Before Helian Ziyu could finish his words, a loud noise was heard from outside the cave, followed by a large number of firecrackers being thrown into the cave.
The loud crackling sounds accompanied by the flames produced by the burning firecrackers immediately stirred up a large cloud of smoke.
Stimulated by the strong smell, Yi Mobao coughed and raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose.
At this moment, a cold light came from the air and headed straight for Yi Mobao's face.
Yi Mobao instinctively turned his head slightly and felt something sharp brushing against his face, leaving a scar on it.
Reaching out to touch the blood oozing from the wound on his face, Yi Mobao turned around and looked behind him, and found that a very sharp hidden arrow had sunk into the rock wall behind him.
A bad premonition came to his mind, and Yi Mobao could clearly feel that someone was targeting him in the chaos.
Unable to find any suitable shelter for a while, Yi Mobao was at a loss as he fell into someone's arms the next second.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh-!
The sleeve arrow came flying at high speed and passed by Ji Chilian's body.
The sharp blade in his hand deflected all the sleeve arrows that could not be dodged, and Ji Chilian's movements became faster and faster.
Finally, as the sound of firecrackers faded away, the thick smoke gradually dissipated.
The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder and saltpeter. Yi Mobao coughed twice and said, "The target of these people is not us, but Helian Ziyu."
Ji Chilian raised his eyes and looked forward, and found that Helian Ziyu, who was not far away just now, had disappeared, leaving only a pool of blood on the ground.
"Could it be that the woman named Jinghua rescued Helian Ziyu?" Yi Mobao said this with a look of pity in his eyes, "This Helian Ziyu is really an indestructible cockroach, and he can always escape danger."
"This is enough to show that for those people behind Helian Ziyu, Helian Ziyu is not an object that can be sacrificed casually. His existence must be useful." Ji Chilian said as he let go of Yi Mobao.
"I don't have time to chase Helian Ziyu now. I just want to know where my mother went." Yi Mobao looked around but couldn't find any clues. "Since my mother was taken away by the Uncrowned Mirror, how can we chase her?"
Ji Chilian shook his head: "I don't know how to use the mysterious arts, so I don't know how to find the Uncrowned Mirror. But I can take you to find the head of the Qin Xue family."
Yi Mobao really didn't want to leave here, but he had no choice but to follow Ji Chilian away first.
When it was just dawn, Ji Chilian found Qin Xue and told her the whole story word for word.
Qin Xue's expression was much better than it was in the cell. After hearing this, her expression became serious: "You mean the Crown Prince's wife was swallowed by the Uncrowned Mirror?"
"What's wrong?" Ji Chilian asked directly without beating around the bush.
"Previous reincarnations of the national gods would actively approach the Uncrowned Mirror before being devoured... This time, the Uncrowned Mirror actually actively devoured the Crown Prince's wife. This is enough to show that in the eyes of the Uncrowned Mirror, the Crown Prince's wife must be a very special existence."
Yi Mobao's face was tangled up: "I don't care what this mirror looks like. I just want to know where my mother went."
"Since she encountered the Uncrowned Mirror, she must have been swallowed by the mirror now. However, no ordinary person other than the reincarnation of the national god has ever been swallowed by the Uncrowned Mirror. I think it may be because the fate of the Crown Prince's wife is extraordinary, which caused the Uncrowned Mirror to feel a sense of crisis, so it took the initiative to attack the Crown Prince's wife."
Tan Xue paused and continued, "Once you are swallowed by the Uncrowned Mirror, you will not be able to leave unless you perfectly obtain the power of the National God."
"Then my mother will be doomed?" Yi Mobao's expression was extremely solemn. "My mother is not even the reincarnation of the national god. She does not have the power of the national god. How can she obtain the power of the national god in the Crownless Mirror?"
"So I'm afraid that the Crown Prince's wife is in great danger this time." Tan Xue kept looking at Yi Mobao while speaking.
Seeing Yi Mobao's face as pale as death, Qin Xue really couldn't bear to say more.
But that's the truth, and they can't escape it even if they want to.
"Then let me enter the Uncrowned Mirror! I can find a way to absorb the power of the national god in the Uncrowned Mirror, so that my mother can come out!" Yi Mobao said impatiently.
"To become a national god, in addition to possessing the power of a national god in one's body, one must also meet three conditions. The first is to be immune to all diseases, the second is to have an extraordinary background, and the third, and most important, is to be able to see things that others cannot see. The previous national gods who had reincarnated all met the first and second conditions, but they were still killed by the Uncrowned Mirror.
"I'm sorry to say, with your current strength, even if you enter the Uncrowned Mirror, you're courting death. Moreover, the Uncrowned Mirror has disappeared along with the Crown Prince's wife. There are only two possibilities for it to reappear. One is that the Crown Prince's wife breaks through herself and creates a miracle to become a national god. The other is that the Crown Prince's wife is killed..."
