Chapter 86 The man behind the scenes
Fireworks burst out from over Yiqian's backyard.
When Muning and Lu Mingzhu rushed to the backyard, they barely managed to avoid the oncoming uncontrolled flying swords.
Among the people lurking in the dark, Jiang Suizui, Li Nianxue, Lin Jingyu, Lin Yao, and even Lan Xue and Ye Xiyao, who were still seriously injured, were all present.
Among the disciples, Li Nianxue protected Meng Heng, who had collapsed to the ground out of fear.
"Senior Sister Nianxue!" Muning shouted.
I saw the female devil in red flying in the air. The human skin on her face seemed to have been torn apart during the fight, revealing the bones and maggots inside. It was disgusting and terrifying.
It was filled with hostility and anger, roaring at the group of people surrounding it.
The billowing air waves attacked Li Nianxue with an overwhelming momentum.
"Let him go! Let him go! Let him go!" The female devil's voice was shrill and strange, with a bit of morbid persistence, and she shouted straight at Li Nianxue.
Apparently she was asked to hand over Meng Heng.
The man was frightened to death. He had never seen such a terrifying monster before. He broke out in a cold sweat and held on to Li Nianxue's sleeve.
He thought that Yiqian would assassinate him out of love and hatred, but he never thought that he would face such a scary and weird thing!
Li Nianxue pulled Meng Heng's hand away irritably.
She didn't have a good impression of the "heartless man" in front of her, and now it was like a dragster affecting her performance.
Just now, in order to protect the weak clerk in front of her, her own sword was knocked away.
Looking at the reinforcements who came to add more troops, Li Nianxue pointed to the person behind him and said, "Follow Muning and don't affect us."
Meng Heng was naturally eager to retreat and quickly ran towards Muning behind him.
He shouted while running, "Miss Mu, Miss Mu, help me! What kind of monster is this!"
Before he could rush to Mu Ning's side, he was blocked by the man beside the girl.
"Go away."
His eyes darkened, and there seemed to be murderous intent under his deep eyes, which made people shudder.
He was originally a handsome man, but he felt inexplicably cold, even scarier than the female devil just now.
Muning acquiesced to Lu Mingzhu's actions and did not protect Meng Heng behind him.
Now is not the time to save people, Meng Heng has to sacrifice again.
The monster was obviously driven into panic.
The strange and ethereal sound sounded extremely anxious in the outer courtyard.
"Meng Lang, come here quickly, come here quickly!"
Each sentence of lingering sorrow was like a curse that made Meng Heng's legs feel like they were nailed to the spot.
He didn't dare to move at all, let alone step forward.
He doesn't even have the courage to face it!
Muning sighed and spoke to him in a low voice.
"You can also see that this monster's target is you. It is determined to get you, and it will be useless for us to confront it head-on. Now, we can only force you to go first, but don't worry, it won't hurt you."
Meng Heng's eyes widened.
"What do you mean it shouldn't hurt me? This is clearly asking me to die!"
"No, it won't kill you. Trust me."
Under Muning's gaze, Meng Heng finally turned around and walked towards the monster step by step.
Everyone made way for him and watched him go towards the monster.
The monster seemed to be appeased, and its originally furious and ferocious expression faded away, replaced by a soft and charming voice.
It whispered like it was seducing the guests in the crypt, and its fatally seductive voice combined with its twisted and weird face made it even more weird.
"Come here... I've been waiting for you for a long time..." "A Ning, are you sure Meng Heng's life will not be in danger in the past?" Li Nianxue said to Muning.
Muning nodded, "At least now... that person will not let Meng Heng die."
She whispered to several people, "Has the soul-killing magic circle been set up?"
"It's laid out. Disciple Jiang and I checked it carefully to make sure everything is safe." Lin Jingyu replied.
The soul-killing array can strangle the spirits, monsters and beasts of heaven and earth and dissipate their souls. It is an extremely powerful and difficult-to-control array.
Muning originally didn't want to use this formation, but this female monster was also blessed by the spiritual roots of heaven and earth, so it was really difficult to deal with it.
The whisper of the monster spurred Meng Heng's steps, and he walked forward step by step, something seemed wrong.
"What's going on with him?" Li Nianxue frowned.
"Maybe I was confused." Muning answered her question.
She seemed to know where the dead bones in the monster's lair came from.
Those men were all bewitched by the monster, became its vessels, and were sucked out of their essence and blood.
Now Meng Heng was naturally bewitched.
"Should we save him? What if the monster wants to harm him?" Li Nianxue asked.
Muning shook his head, "It won't."
As if to confirm Muning's guess, Meng Heng, with dull eyes, walked up to the monster and was not harmed.
The monster's hands groped his body, seeming to be tracing and carving his body, and then it got closer to the face that couldn't be called a face and smelled his breath.
"Meng Lang, you are my Meng Lang, I miss you so much..."
Meng Heng stood there as if he were a mindless object, letting it swing.
The situation reached a stalemate.
Muning was the first to break the atmosphere.
"You've come to this point, why don't you come out?" Muning spoke into the silent darkness. .
"Yixiang."
A woman wearing gorgeous clothes came from the darkness with a mysterious smile, staring at Muning.
She is an old acquaintance of Zangxiang Pavilion.
"Isn't she Yiqian? Why did you call her Yixiang?" Li Nianxue asked.
The woman sneered at first, and then laughed loudly, with some joy and wantonness in her tone.
"I really underestimated you. You actually discovered this secret." The woman with bright makeup looked at Muning and laughed.
"How did you guess that I wasn't Yiqian's?"
Muning didn't hide it either.
"I knew it when Meng Heng told me that Yiqian had a twin sister." Then she added, "There are so many differences between you."
"If I'm not wrong, Yi Qian did die after she fell into the water. It was you who replaced her in the Cangxiang Pavilion. You became the oiran because of your outstanding dancing skills and deliberately took revenge on Meng Heng. Today, it was you who set the trap. "
Yiqian, to be precise, Yixiang, she chuckled, "You are indeed not a mortal."
"Let me guess, who are you..." Yixiang covered her mouth as if thinking, "You are all extraordinary. You must not be ordinary people. You also know swordsmanship and magic. You should be Taoist priests on the fairy mountain."
Before anyone could answer, Lin Jingyu spoke first, "We are disciples of the Immortal Sect, specially sent to go down the mountain to slay demons. We are specifically dealing with evil demons like you! If you know what you are doing, we will capture you without any effort!"
Seeing Lin Jingyu's identity being so straightforward, Muning felt that there was no need to go around any more.
"Yixiang, disciples of the Immortal Sect will not take action against mortals. Hand over the monsters behind you and we will not embarrass you."
