In the darkness,
That figure took a step forward,
Finally exposed under the light of the fire.
Mu Qing's expression was gloomy, but he didn't speak. Feng Xin grabbed Xie Lian and said, "Previously in Immortal Capital, I was looking for someone when someone suddenly hit me from behind. Otherwise, how could I have fainted?"
Xie Lian's thoughts raced.
He blinked his eyes.
"Was he the one who hit you?"
Feng Xin resolutely and decisively said, "I can't be wrong.
It was him! "
Xie Lian: "After he hit you, you immediately fainted?"
Feng Xin: "More or less! In short, Your Highness, be careful.
Either you don't go near him.
Or you quickly catch him! "
Mu Qing couldn't help but say, "Let you … …"
Xie Lian hurriedly said, "Wait! Feng Xin, there's a problem. Since he sneak attacked you from behind,
You immediately fainted — — then how did you know,
That the person who hit you from behind was Mu Qing? "
Feng Xin didn't expect him to ask this question and froze for a moment. Mu Qing immediately seized this moment and snorted.
"At that time, Immortal Capital was in such a chaotic state. It wouldn't be strange if someone accidentally knocked you out.
Yet, you just had to throw the blame on me. Can't you admit that you saw wrongly? "
Feng Xin grabbed Xie Lian and stood up. In a deep voice, he said, "No.
It was definitely you! "
Mu Qing said, "What makes you say that?"
Feng Xin said word by word, "It's because at that time, Immortal Capital was on fire.
There were flames everywhere, and the ground reflected the shadow of the person behind me. Although I didn't have time to turn my head, when I fell, I saw the shadow's figure and moves. That was your shadow! "
Xie Lian attentively listened to the confrontation between the two people. Mu Qing still didn't show weakness.
"In the end, you still didn't see it with your own eyes. It's normal for things like shadows to be distorted. How can you determine that it was me based on a shadow? I almost fainted, what could I see clearly? "
Feng Xin said, "You know very well that I can't determine it. Your Highness as well. "
Xie Lian indeed knew. No matter what, the three of them grew up together and cultivated together. They couldn't be more familiar with each other's figures and moves. Even if they didn't see each other's faces, they were eighty percent sure!
Feng Xin said again, "Your Highness, did you come together? Did he do anything suspicious on the way? "
Xie Lian: "This …"
To be honest, Mu Qing had been too suspicious and restless the entire time. But in this situation, Xie Lian couldn't say it in front of Mu Qing. Feng Xin said again, "No! Now that he thought about it, he was suspicious from the moment he arrived. With his personality, why would he risk his life with you? Is this still Mu Qing? "
Mu Qing's expression darkened. "Don't be so absolute. Giving birth to a son doesn't seem like something you would do, but didn't you still give birth to one? "
"…"
Xie Lian had a bad premonition that this direction wasn't good. He hurriedly said, "Alright, stop quarreling. If you keep quarreling, I'll pick up a dragon and calm down!"
Mu Qing continued, "Besides, if I was the one who knocked you out, why would I waste so much effort to lure them here?"
Feng Xin also said, "Because you didn't expect me to recognize you even though you attacked me from behind! Moreover, I don't know what kind of damned place this is. You might not have lured His Highness and the others here to find me. Did the Bloodrain Tanhua get separated from you on the way? "
Mu Qing said, "You want to say that I'm a fake and deliberately lured His Highness and the others here to fall into a dangerous trap? I'm sorry, His Highness the Crown Prince and the Bloodrain Tanhua were traveling with me. If I was a fake, there's no way they wouldn't have discovered me. "
Xie Lian said, "That's true … …"
However, that was also Mu Qing on the way. But after entering the underground Wuyong Imperial Palace, could Mu Qing have been swapped while they weren't paying attention? This couldn't be guaranteed.
Mu Qing sized up Feng Xin and said, "Your Highness, I think it's better for you to stay away from him. After all, he was lying here the moment we arrived. The Bloodrain Tanhua also disappeared. If he suddenly woke up and provoked us, wouldn't that make him look even more like a fake? "
Bai WuXiang had once disguised as these two people, so it wouldn't be strange for him to do it again. Xie Lian rubbed the space between his eyebrows and said, "How about this, you guys say something that only the three of us know and verify it?"
Mu Qing said, "What is it?"
Xie Lian thought for a moment and casually said, "On the top of the snowy mountain, what did you two shout?"
After he finished speaking, the two people's faces froze. Xie Lian folded his hands in his sleeves and said, "If the two of you can't match, then it means that one of you isn't the original one. Let's first confirm your identity, then we can talk about other things. "
The two people looked at each other in dismay and didn't say anything. This made Xie Lian, who originally wasn't very curious about what they were talking about behind his back, become curious. After a while, Feng Xin also didn't directly answer. Instead, he said, "You guys are mistaken. I don't suspect that he's a fake."
Mu Qing narrowed his eyes. "So what you mean is?"
Feng Xin bluntly said, "From the beginning, I felt that he was the real Mu Qing. He originally didn't like seeing us, so it wouldn't be strange for him to do anything. "
Mu Qing's hands clenched into fists. His knuckles crackled as he backhanded a palm!
Feng Xin was injured and barely managed to avoid it. The two of them started fighting. Although Xie Lian had long since expected this, he still felt a headache coming on. He said, "Calm down … … How about we just pick up a dragon?"
As soon as they started fighting, Xie Lian felt the murderous aura around them become even heavier. Several balls of flames flew around randomly, illuminating the entire room. Only then did Xie Lian clearly see that the walls and shelves in all directions were densely packed with all kinds of swords, spears, swords, halberds, and other weapons. The air was dense and cold.
As it turned out, this place was an armory. No wonder there was an icy cold murderous aura all around them!
Xie Lian himself had once had an armory like this. He was extremely fond of it and would often linger inside, forgetting to leave. However, this armory made him feel extremely uncomfortable, so he didn't want to stay any longer. But for the time being, he didn't know which of these two people he should believe. He also didn't know which one he should help — — to tell the truth, both of them were extremely suspicious!
In the end, Xie Lian could only say, "Ruo Xie!"
I'll first tie them up and talk later!
Ruo Xie, who had been waiting for a long time, finally had a chance to show off. Unexpectedly, before the white silk even came out, Xie Lian suddenly felt another wave of coldness spreading from behind him.
He immediately changed the direction of his attack. Grabbing Ruo Xie, he swung it backwards. As soon as he felt the white silk wrap around something, Xie Lian grabbed Ruo Xie and fiercely pulled, but he couldn't move it.
His heart sank, and in the next moment, he was instead pulled by Ruo Xie from the other end. His back firmly crashed into someone's embrace, and there was also an icy cold hard thing that pinched his waist. Xie Lian, "???"
Although his body didn't look very sturdy, his strength was still very astonishing. Unless the other party was a colossus, how could they have pulled him over so easily?
Xie Lian was just about to backhand and punch when he felt a hand wrap around his waist. A voice from above said, "Gege, it's me."
Xie Lian said, "San Lang?"
Sure enough, when he looked down, he saw that the hand that was wrapping around his waist was wearing a silver wristband carved with maple leaves, butterflies, and fierce beasts. When he turned his head again, he saw that the person who caught him was a tall and slender person dressed in red. The person was calm and composed, and a silver scimitar hung from his waist. That thing that had pinched his waist just now was most likely the hilt of this scimitar.
Flower City!
Xie Lian immediately understood. It turned out that just now, it was Ruo Xie who had taken the initiative to drag him over to Flower City. He was basically fighting one against two, so of course he was instantly pulled over!
He steadied himself and silently picked up Ruo Xie. He said to it, "You're too much of a traitor … …"
At this moment, Ruo Xie knew that it was pretending to be dead, so it didn't move an inch. Xie Lian also didn't want to talk about it, so he tossed it aside and said, "San Lang, what happened just now? Weren't you always behind me? Where's Shifu? "
Hua Cheng said, "This place is very strange. Halfway through, the front and back roads were all sealed off. We encountered something a bit troublesome, so it took a bit of time to resolve."
If even Hua Cheng said it was a bit troublesome, then it seemed that it really was troublesome. Xie Lian faintly felt uneasy in his heart. He asked, "Are you alright?"
Hua Cheng said, "Of course I'm alright. However, the State Preceptor's whereabouts are unknown, so we might have to continue deeper. By the way, what are those two fighting about? It's so noisy. "
Xie Lian said, "Oh, they … …"
At the side, Feng Xin and Mu Qing finally noticed this side. Mu Qing immediately shouted, "Hey! You be careful! Don't casually get close to people who suddenly appeared! "
The two of them temporarily stopped fighting. Feng Xin also said, "Your Highness, don't pounce on him when you see him!"
Xie Lian immediately defended himself, "What! What do you mean pounce on him when I see him? I didn't pounce on him, it's Ruo Xie's problem … … "At this point, he suddenly realized why they were so nervous.
Since Feng Xin and Mu Qing were both suspected of being swapped, then … … didn't that mean Hua Cheng was also the same?
The one standing in front of them, was it really 'Hua Cheng' himself?
Hua Cheng raised an eyebrow and said, "So right now, you guys are doubting my authenticity, right?"
Xie Lian propped up his elbow with one hand and propped up his cheek with the other. He began to seriously observe him.
Hua Cheng noticed his gaze and turned around to stare at him.
"… …" Xie Lian couldn't continue observing him. After pondering for a while, he came to a conclusion and said to the two people, "I think this is real."
Mu Qing unhappily said, "'You think' isn't necessarily correct. Don't forget where this is. This is Bai WuXiang's old nest. It wouldn't be strange for anything to appear here. You should think of a way to test it out yourself. "
Hua Cheng smiled and said, "Well, this is too simple. Brother, come here. I'll tell you a good method. You'll be able to determine it immediately. "
Xie Lian listened to him and modestly asked, "What good method?"
Mu Qing said, "Don't just do whatever he says, okay? Right now, he's the one who's doubtful of my authenticity! "
Hua Cheng said, "Read the first half of my psychic password to me, and I'll read the second half to you. Then, you'll know if I'm real or not."
"… …"
The two people whispered a few words in each other's ears. Xie Lian turned around and lightly coughed. Then, he said to the two people, "This … … This is real."
Only then did Feng Xin look slightly less tense. Mu Qing doubtfully asked, "Are you sure? Don't just look at his face and make him confused. "
Xie Lian said, "I've already said this is real. There's no doubt about it. Everything you guys do makes it sound like I'm very … …"
Hua Cheng said, "Alright, it's settled. Speaking of which — — Brother, what exactly were the two of them fighting about? "
Xie Lian explained a few words to him. Using his hand to support his forehead, he said, "That's it … … To be honest, I don't know who's more suspicious."
However, Hua Cheng said, "Do you still need to ask? Of course, he's more suspicious. "
The direction he was pointing at was Mu Qing.
Mu Qing unhappily said, "Even if you guys are making slanderous accusations, you should have a bottom line, right? Don't push the blame onto me every time something happens. "
Hua Cheng said, "Alright. Then, let me ask you a question — — what's that thing on your wrist? "
Hearing this, Mu Qing's expression immediately changed.
He quickly retreated, but Feng Xin's eyes and hands were fast. Grabbing onto him, he asked, "Wrist?"
On his wrist, there was a cursed shackle!
Mu Qing pushed Feng Xin's hand away. The veins on his forehead bulged as he glared at him. When Xie Lian saw that thing, he put down his crossed arms. Stunned, he asked, "Mu Qing, what's on your hand?"
Mu Qing's expression sank and he didn't say anything. Hua Cheng said, "I suggest you honestly answer the following questions: Why did Jun Wu summon you to the Divine Martial Palace? What did he say to you? Why did you receive better treatment than the other Heavenly Officials and could return unscathed? And why did you act out of character and take the initiative to come to Bronze Furnace Mountain to save someone? What's up with this thing on your hand? Why did you lure us here? "
Seeing that the situation wasn't good, Mu Qing took a step back and immediately said, "Wait! Don't attack first! Listen to me first! "
Hua Cheng spread his hands and said, "Please. Speak. "
Feng Xin said, "Tell me first, did you hit me?"
After pausing for a moment, Mu Qing gritted his teeth and said, "… … Maybe it was me. But it's not what you think! "
