Phoenix Returns - C58

Chu Shiyu walked along the long corridor. Although he couldn’t be sure that Murong Jiuqing was still in Yan Shi Shi Shi, he still wouldn’t give up until he got the dragon scale. If he wanted to completely put an end to his thoughts, he could only get rid of him.

He wanted to see who Sikong Xun would use to seize the dragon’s scale for him.

He had asked the Fire Lion to call Long Ao Tian, hoping that Long Ao Tian would help her protect Yan Shi because of the battle in the Hallucination Formation.

Yu Wuyou could have done so just to help her heal her body and head to the God Realm Mountain Range to retrieve some medicine for her.

However, after Yu Wuyou left for just three days, Murong Shixiong started to get restless again.

Murong Shi Chou knew both the voodoo Gu and the formations, and he could even disguise himself. She could deal with the voodoo Gu, but she wasn’t strong enough, not to mention that Murong Shi Chou had the Yin Bone Soldier.

As he was thinking, Chu Shiyu realized that the road in front of him was no longer the path to the Great Sun Palace, but instead, an open area filled with smoke. When he turned around, he was no longer in the Imperial Palace.

“What’s going on? Am I not in the palace? ”

She opened her eyes wide, searching for the path she had come from, looking for the familiar scent, but there was nothing in the clearing but a haze.

He felt dizzy and intoxicated!

Chu Shiyu pulled out her dagger vigilantly and scuttled through the haze in search of clues. However, after searching for a long time, she realized that she was only walking in circles.

There was no signs of human presence, no sound of the wind, only a deathly stillness.

Rubbing his heavy head, he saw a trail of blood on the ground. He took two steps forward and saw a few corpses.

He suddenly raised his head and saw his brothers and sisters who had died a terrible death. The corpses in the palace were piled into mountains. Chu Shiyu searched the crowd in horror, looking for her brother Chu ShiTing, her royal father and mother.

She fell to her knees in the haze. Weren’t these reflections years ago? Why did she go back in time?

“Imperial Father, Imperial Mother …”

In the pile of corpses, she could not find the corpses of her parents, nor could she find the corpse of her brother. She only saw the empress dowager, and the little prince that her royal father doted on the most.

The youngest prince was born from royal father’s imperial concubine, and in another month, he would be one year old, born on his first birthday.

As for Lifei, her clothes were in disarray and her neck was covered in handprints. She bled profusely from all seven orifices and screamed miserably as she escaped from the bedroom. She was stabbed in the heart and slowly fell to the ground.

Master Chu held his head and shouted loudly!

Ahh!

It was clearly the past, why would these mirror images appear? She did not want to look, did not want to. When she opened her eyes, the ground was covered in blood, and blood flowed from the corpses into the river. It was a horrible sight to behold.

“This isn’t real, it’s just an illusion. Exactly who set up this illusion formation for me to see the previous scene, who was it …”

Before he could stand up, he felt a boiling feeling in his chest!

With a “pu ~” sound, blood spurted out from his mouth. Chu Shiyu knelt on the ground and closed his eyes, not looking at the scene in front of him.

This was her inner demon. It was only because the inner demon was being accused that her mind was muddled. The person who set up this formation wanted to control her inner demon.

How could he break this inner demon? She knelt there for a long time before slowly opening her eyes.

A little boy was standing not far away, waving at her! Royal sister, save me! “Royal sister, I don’t want to die, save me …”

“Ting Er …”

The enemy slowly approached Zhu Shi Ting with his sword in hand, and approached him step by step. When he was about to approach Zhu Shi Ting, he saw Zhu Shi Ting reaching out his small hand and running towards him with all his might.

“Royal sister ~ Save my son …”

Chu Shiyu gripped the dagger tightly, and watched as Zhu Shi Ting approached her step by step. When Zhu Shi Ting ran to her side, he stabbed the dagger in his hand into Chu Shi Ting’s stomach.

Master Chu looked at the dagger in front of his chest, fresh blood dripping onto the ground, as he looked at Master Chu unwillingly.

“Why? I am your younger brother! ”

Chu Shiyu released a vicious light and pushed him down, his body slowly leaning back.

“My brother isn’t even in the Imperial City. Do you think you can use him to confuse my mind? At the time of the coup, my brother went to the west pasture to hunt, and everyone in the court thought that he had returned to the palace. But when the palace fell, my brother never came back, so you weren’t my brother at all. ”

Zhu Shi Ting fell heavily onto the ground, closing his eyes calmly. When he was about to die, he vanished into thin air.

Appearing in front of Chu Shiyu was the long corridor she had walked through.

So the reason he killed her little brother was to break that illusory magic array. All she saw just now were illusory mirrors, and her parents didn’t die in that battle. At that time, her brother wasn’t in the palace either.

She knew that, but she didn’t know who created this illusion array on her, so she didn’t think it was strange that she couldn’t see her parents’ bodies in the array.

If she was able to save her little brother from the illusion, then her consciousness would forever be emptied by that so-called little brother.

Master Chu returned to reality. With one hand gripping his Dagger and the other hand resting on the railing, he looked at the large amount of blood on his chest. In his blurry vision, a figure appeared.

“Ah Yu ~”

The one who walked over to support her was Long Ao Tian. Originally, Long Ao Tian had brought his soul back to the Hunting Palace, but halfway through, he was caught by the Fire Lion, and only then did he know that she had encountered a troublesome problem.

He didn’t want to see Chu Shiyu standing in this corridor as soon as he arrived. His face was pale and his Qi damaged.

She pulled Long Ao Tian’s arm and said: “Murong Shi Chou is still at Yan Shi Shi Yan, he gave me a Heart Magic Array, I was almost unable to get out. Long Ao Tian, on the account that I’m also a member of the Long family, can you help me this once? “My life is not at stake, Ting Er can’t be hurt, the entire responsibility of being a Heavenly Master is on Master Chu, if nothing happens to him, just treat it as me owing you …”

Before she could finish her sentence, she spat out a mouthful of blood from her heart.

“Don’t worry, Master Yan will be fine. I can guarantee your safety, and I can also guarantee yours.”

Chu Shiyu nodded emotionally. His life wasn’t important, and once he faced Murong Shi, he would definitely cause trouble for the others.

She was afraid that Murong Shixiong would use his life as a bargaining chip for the dragon’s scale. At that time, she wouldn’t care too much about it.

With Long Ao Tian helping her protect the palace, he could still go all out to fight Murong Shi.

She did not need Long Ao Tian to fight with his life, she just needed to do his best to protect the Imperial Palace, using the Soulflute to control the birds, preventing them from approaching the Imperial Palace even half a step.

The southern city was a few kilometers away from the abandoned cemetery in the Imperial City. Murong Shixiong would definitely be there to command his Yin Bone Soldiers.

The next day, Master Chu brought the Fiery Lion and the Violet Electricity Spirit Fox to the unmarked cemetery and laid down a Gu spirit array.

This place was filled with bones. After seizing power, many people’s corpses had already been respectfully buried, but there were still many unnamed corpses underground.

They could only be lonely ghosts forever, unable to find a place to stay. Since these bones could be used by Murong Shixiong, she had to be prepared in advance.

Master Chu placed a few silkworm Gu on the ground. These were the silkworms that had just emerged from the pupa in the snowy mountains of the north, and any place they climbed could be frozen in ice.

In the middle of October, the ice was quickly congealing. As long as the entire burial site was frozen, even if he couldn’t immediately kill Murong Shixiong, he would at least be trapped for a period of time.

Master Chu released the silkworm Gu, and the silkworm Gu followed the leaves on the ground and climbed down, watching the leaves on the ground slowly freeze before returning to the foot of the mountain.

At night, a black figure flashed through the forest and landed at the highest point of the unmarked cemetery.
