Chapter 226
Although she was not hurt from the fall, she still got up cursing because of Mo Yu's sudden attack.
"I knew the demons couldn't be trusted. Damn it."
The surroundings were filled with demonic energy, and Le Zheng Shui Ling just noticed it and quickly covered her mouth. Not only that, visibility was also very low. Fortunately, several people fell together.
Qinglian and Lezheng Qiming immediately erected a barrier, giving everyone a chance to observe their surroundings.
The Netherworld Underground Palace is a place full of mystery and weirdness. A chilly breath came towards me, as if it could penetrate my bones, making me shiver involuntarily.
The surroundings were filled with black mist, which seemed to have life and was lingering around, sometimes gathering and sometimes dispersing.
The fog blocked my view, I couldn't see the road, nor could I see what was around me. There were strange sounds, sometimes like someone crying, sometimes like the roar of a wild beast, which made people feel terrified.
There seemed to be countless pairs of eyes peering at them in the darkness.
Suddenly, the fog rushed towards them with a roar like a group of ferocious faces, and the barrier was hit and creaked and seemed to be crumbling.
Soon, the barrier was shattered, and Qinglian and Lezheng Qiming fell to the ground due to the backlash of the power. Lezheng Shuiling and Lezheng Yuhua were about to step forward to show concern when an unknown force grabbed Lezheng Shuiling's waist and pulled her away.
"Shui Ling!"
The voice was instantly drowned out and seemed to be very far away. Le Zheng Yuhua let go of Qinglian and immediately chased after it. Qinglian and Le Zheng Qiming also chased after it, and just like that, they got lost and scattered in the black mist.
"Qi Ming? Brother Yuhua?"
Le Zheng Shui Ling rubbed her sore butt and tried to call out to others but got no response. She wanted to cover her mouth again, but then she gave up because there were so many people around her.
"Ouch!"
Without paying attention, Le Zheng Shuiling bumped into something. When she got closer, she saw that it seemed to be a pillar.
It was covered with all kinds of strange runes and patterns, flashing a faint light in the black fog.
Although it looked very dangerous, Le Zheng Shuiling couldn't help but reach out to touch the runes, but she felt a cold force coming from her fingertips, as if it was going to suck something out of her body.
Le Zheng Shuiling also felt as if her consciousness had left her body, and some blurry images appeared before her eyes.
The endless sea of flowers and the startled dots seemed like countless flying fireflies. She seemed to see herself holding a ball in her hand, and she knew in her heart that it was the Dark Spirit Pearl.
"Why can't you just leave with me?"
"If you can't let go, why force me to let go? We don't talk about the world, we only talk about our people. If it were you, you would do the same."
Le Zheng Shuiling touched her cheek, there were tears on her face, but there was no Ming Lingzhu in her hand.
She looked at her empty hands in a daze in the dim light, and suddenly a folding fan was handed to her.
"The girl is lost?"
Le Zheng Shuiling looked up, and the evil spirit around her seemed to have disappeared, and she could see the other person's face clearly.
"Moyu? Is it really you?"
Mo Yu was stunned, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes. Just as he was about to reply to her, Le Zheng Shuiling pounced over and strangled him tightly.
"Tell me quickly, where are my two brothers?"
Mo Yu turned into black gas and ran behind her, breathing heavily.
"You were so gentle before, but now..." Although Le Zheng Shui Ling couldn't be hurt at all, he was still shocked by her behavior. Mo Yu couldn't help but smile and said, "Miss Shui Ling, please be patient."
"Calm down? You almost killed us, and you still want me to calm down. That doesn't make sense."
Le Zheng Shuiling grabbed Ruyi and hit him, but Mo Yu dodged it easily.
"You are no match for me."
"so what?"
Mo Yu did not attack, but just kept dodging her attacks. Although she looked different, Mo Yu still smiled dotingly at her different personality.
He couldn't help but think of the way she looked when he first met her in his previous life, and couldn't help teasing him again. Le Zheng Shui Ling couldn't hit him, and he teased her in various ways. She was angry and swung the whip directly. Fortunately, Mo Yu dodged quickly, otherwise the whip would have hit her body firmly. Even if Le Zheng Shui Ling's spiritual power was not high, the Jiuli artifact was not vegetarian.
Mo Yu came over and hit her hand with his folding fan. Le Zheng Shuiling let go of her hand in pain. He kicked Ruyi with his foot and caught it in his hand.
"give me back!"
"How much weight does this weapon hold in your heart?"
"I want you to take care of it!"
Mo Yu dodged her hand again.
"How about we make a deal?"
"Trade? Ha, you are much more capable than me. I don't have the capital to trade with you."
"Yes, by yourself."
"What do you mean?"
"I can return Qianji to you, take you to find my brothers, and guarantee your safety in the Netherworld Underground Palace."
"He knows that Ruyi is a Jiuli artifact, but he has no intention of taking it. With such high conditions, I don't know what he means." Le Zheng Shuiling pretended to be indifferent and said: "What does it matter whether I agree or not? However, you give me such good conditions, I would like to hear what you want?"
"I just said that."
Le Zheng Shui Ling thought about it, pointed at herself and asked in confusion: "Me?"
"That's right. As long as you agree to marry me, everything I said above is yours."
"Wait...wait, wait, I seem to hear some words that are infuriating to the heavens and the people? Marry you?"
"Otherwise, why would you ask me to return it to you and help you find a senior brother? I dote on my wife very much."
Le Zheng Shui Ling did not refuse immediately. Instead, she suddenly had an idea and said, "I am a Taoist priest of Le Zheng. My father and mother are both well-known. Even if I am not capable enough, it is not too much to say that I am a rich lady, right?"
"Not too much."
"In that case, I'll just say it straight."
"But it doesn't matter."
"First, I, Le Zheng Shui Ling, will never be a concubine. Second, I, Le Zheng Shui Ling, will never share a husband with anyone else. Third, if you want to marry me, you must give me a betrothal gift. Just like the girls from ordinary families, as the saying goes... a long wedding dress, a sedan chair carried by eight people... a grand ceremony. Fourth, I, Le Zheng Shui Ling, will never take my husband as my priority. I can do whatever I want. Don't try to control me. Fifth..."
Le Zheng Shui Ling listed all the conditions that she thought were excessive, and Mo Yu could not help but laugh out loud.
"What are you laughing at? You can't do it?"
"As long as Miss Shui Ling agrees to marry me, I, Mo Yu, can swear that you will be my only life."
The look in Le Zheng Shui Ling's eyes when she looked at him was full of affection and sincerity, which made her feel timid.
"None of that just now counts."
Le Zheng Shuiling turned around and tried to calm down. Looking at the dangerous situation around her, Le Zheng Shuiling thought about their safety and her own lack of ability, so she turned back.
Before she could say anything, she found Mo Yu approaching very close to her. She quickly took a step back and was hugged by him around the waist.
Le Zheng Shui Ling immediately broke free from his hand and asked in panic: "You didn't lie to me?"
"If you don't believe me, we can worship heaven and earth and become husband and wife right now."
Le Zheng Shui Ling quickly waved her hands and said, "No, no, no, that's not necessary. Ah, well, this is the Demon Palace, I'm worried about the safety of my two brothers, let's find them first."
Even though he knew she was trying to change the subject, Mo Yu still accepted it with a doting look on his face.
Soon, they found Le Zheng Yuhua and others.
When he saw Mo Yu, Le Zheng Qiming got angry.
"He didn't bully you, did he?"
"How can I bear to bully her?"
Le Zheng Shui Ling was worried that he might talk nonsense, so she said hurriedly: "Oh, this is the Demon Palace, we can't stay here for long, let's find the medicine quickly and go back."
Le Zheng Yuhua could see that Mo Yu would not harm Le Zheng Shuiling, so she was relieved. Just as she said, the most important thing now was to find the medicine.
So they ignored the black jade and started searching.
