All sects work

Chapter 248: Destroying the Heaven (20)

Under the old locust tree in front of the village house, the young man saluted with a smile: "General Xiao, I hope you can forgive me for not welcoming you in person."

Xiao Hongfan quickly returned the greeting: "Mr. Chen, you're welcome."

The two entered the village surrounded by the crowd. Shi Xuanying looked around and found that it was the quiet village she had seen before. She was dazed for a moment, and then she realized something was wrong: she had clearly exited Xiao Hongfan's dream, so why could she still see these scenes?

With doubts in her mind, she followed the two of them.

From their conversation, Shi Xuanying determined that the young man called "Mr. Chen" by Xiao Hongfan was none other than Chen You, the leader of the restoration army of the Little Chen Kingdom who died before dawn.

And now, Xiao Hongfan was recruited by the Restoration Army.

In the real timeline, although Xiao Hongfan had never clearly defined his goals, he had already pictured a future in his mind.

The reason why she agreed to Chen You's recruitment was not for the high position and generous salary, nor was it a weighing of the pros and cons, but because of the golden wheat waves, the smiles on the faces of the people, and the clear sounds of children reading...

This scene was still deeply engraved in her mind until she dragged the whole world to be buried with her.

Shi Xuanying had felt it was a little strange before, that Xiao Hongfan died so peacefully! She was a person who clearly distinguished between love and hate. If she dragged the whole world to be buried with her because of backstabbing and coercion, she must have hated him very much, and it was unlikely that she would have no emotional fluctuations towards the betrayer.

Now, it seems that the reason has been found.

Xiao Hongfan subconsciously wanted to create a civilized country and had been working hard for it. Even though the Seven Stars fell one by one and the Red Blood Army died in vain, the fire of hope in her heart was still not extinguished until she finally faced the people who were forced to become beasts by their desire to survive...

Those are a pair of eyes that go against "civilization".

The end of the world killed all kindness, leaving only selfishness and killing. Her faith was overwhelmed by the most primitive and vicious side of human nature, and she believed that these people did not deserve a bright future.

However, at the last moment before her death, she remembered her original intention of joining the Restoration Army.

Shi Xuanying boldly guessed that the obsession attached to the Red Blood Flag actually had no clear goal, but was a question coming from the depths of the soul.

——Does humanity deserve a better future?

Shi Xuanying seemed to have found the answer to how to clear the obsession and kill Tiandao, but now her consciousness was trapped in another space.

She explored the entire space slowly and leisurely, then sat cross-legged under the old locust tree. She spread her hands and made a gesture. A red line emerged from her fingertips, continuously extending and growing, and no one knew where it led to.

Blood traction technique is a relatively common tracking technique. Master Xuanying once used this method to find Zhuang Qiqi in the illusion. This time, she improved it by herself and used blood and mental power to create an "anchor point" outside the body in advance.

The sun sets in the west and rises in the east, repeating this cycle several times.

Shi Xuanying sensed the fluctuation of spiritual energy in front of her and suddenly opened her eyes. She glanced at the tip of the knife that was hanging less than an inch in front of her, and then her gaze shifted to the young man holding the knife.

The boy had a face as big as a palm, with a little fat on his cheeks, a pair of narrow eyes, more white than black, and murderous intent in his dark eyes. It was Jiang Chuixing.

Shi Xuanying stretched out a finger to push away the long sword, then stood up and patted his head: "As expected of a descendant of my Sword Sect, you are very useful."

Jiang Chuixing turned away and said fiercely: "Let's go!"

Shi Xuanying was dragged by him and followed the red line into a white light.

When he opened his eyes again, his consciousness had returned to his body.

She immediately looked inside and found that the red flowers in the purple palace space had connected into a piece, forming deep and light red, which at first glance looked like a bloody hole.

The red blood flag was hanging directly above her, and its energy was much weaker than before. This was a good opportunity to suppress it, but Shi Xuanying did not do so. She just calmly watched the red flowers spread and gradually devour her purple palace. After observing for a while, she withdrew from the purple palace.

Jiang Chuixing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that she finally opened her eyes.

Shi Xuanying looked around and found that she was still in Xiao Hongfan's tent.

"After your soul disappeared, I followed your previous instructions and said that the opportunity for breakthrough had arrived, so I suddenly entered into a state of meditation." Jiang Chuixing explained.

He now looked like a little boy again, squatting on a stool opposite the bed, full of resentment.

Shi Xuanying had anticipated that this day would come, and had arranged many things in advance, to prevent Jiang Chuixing from running around like a headless fly after everyone lost their self-awareness.

However, Jiang Chuixing had never tried to leave his body before, let alone break through layers of obstacles to find someone. The difficulty and danger involved were truly beyond words.

"How long will it take for us to get out?" Jiang Chuixing wiped her troubled face, "Your spirit has been missing for three days, and the Taoist priest and Crow Mouth have successively lost their self-awareness and have completely forgotten their original identities."

Previously, the Heavenly Dao on the Red Blood Flag was suppressed by Master Xuanying's spiritual consciousness, but in these three days, the Heavenly Dao took the upper hand, which directly led to the rapid deepening of the assimilation degree of others.

For Yu Jiang Chuixing, the most terrifying thing was that he was the only sober person in the entire world.

"Jian Zi is probably in a worse situation." Jiang Chuixing couldn't help asking, "Uncle Master, do we really have to wait until the world is pacified before we can get rid of our obsession? By then, everyone will be completely assimilated! Although I haven't been assimilated yet, I'm almost bald!"

These past few days, he not only had to continuously draw the pure energy from his body to supply Bai Xuexing with for making medicine, but he also had to search for Master Xuanying's missing soul. His innate bones and spiritual energy were being consumed crazily, and his cultivation level was dropping rapidly. If he continued like this, he would soon become a "waking useless person"!

"The opportunity is approaching, and the Dust Core will be cleared soon. I have already thought of a way to break the impasse!" Putting aside her own precarious soul, Shi Xuanying was full of confidence, "Don't worry, everything is under control!"

Jiang Chuixing was shocked when he heard this: "Really?"

"Uncle Master can still lie to you?!" Shi Xuanying said, "But before that, there is one last thing that only you can do."

Jiang Chuixing has great self-control and has shown no signs of being assimilated so far. It would be safer to let him do some things.

Seeing him nod, Shi Xuanying continued, "I'll write a letter, you take it to Qudu, and find a way to give it to Liu Shuji."

Jiang Chuixing hesitated: "What if your soul has problems again while I'm away?"

"If you use your spiritual energy to speed up your journey, the round trip will take no more than three to five days, and you'll be fine!" After Shi Xuanying got the "answer", she was able to roughly estimate the time of departure, so there was no need to save spiritual stones like before.

Yan Cui left most of the spirit stones behind before leaving. Shi Xuanying waved her hand and gave a bag directly to Jiang Chuixing.

Jiang Chuixing's worries disappeared instantly, and he happily took the spirit stone and the letter and left.

With sufficient supply of spiritual energy, he ran as fast as he could and arrived in Qudu that night.

He originally thought it was just delivering a letter, a simple matter, but when he saw the charred ruins exposed under the snow in front of him, Jiang Chuixing was dumbfounded.

He took out the map and looked at it again and again in confusion.

"That's right..." Jiang Chuixing walked into the ruined city that had been engulfed by fire and looked around in confusion.

The entire city was in ruins, with only broken walls left, and there was no living thing in sight.

Then Liu Shuji wouldn't be dead, right?! Jiang Chuixing frowned, thinking about a very difficult question: If that person is already dead, should he burn the letter on his grave, or take his body back? And, how to identify Liu Shuji's body?

While he was struggling, he rushed to the location of "Liu Mansion" marked on the map.
