"I didn't expect it to be you." Song Wenji, the most cherished adopted daughter of the First Seat of Heavenly Law Hall Immortal Tiehu, who was known for her enchanting beauty and at the same time, was also an outstanding talent of the young generation in the Union of True Immortals. Standing behind Old Ma, she looked at him, frowned slightly and suddenly said such a sentence.
Old Ma didn't seem to be surprised or angry at Song Wenji's somewhat brainless words. He even nodded and said, "More or less, I also didn't expect it to be you."
Song Wenji didn't say anything. Her beautiful eyes flickered and stared at the fat face of Old Ma, her gaze as sharp as a knife.
Old Ma took a step back and raised his hands as if to express his helplessness and harmlessness. He said, "Alright, alright, I didn't mean anything else."
Song Wenji snorted and put away a strange weapon in her hand. Old Ma took advantage of this gap and secretly glanced at her hand. In that hasty glance, he felt that the weapon seemed to be a bit like a strange hook.
But Song Wenji's movements were very fast. That weapon disappeared from her hand in an instant and no one knew where it went.
"Why not Lu Chen?" Song Wenji sneered and looked at Old Ma with a bit of ridicule in her eyes. She said, "Could it be that the person he trusts the most is you? It seems that Lu Chen is just a chess piece on the surface."
Old Ma shook his head and said seriously, "How can we guess the thoughts of that person."
Song Wenji curled her lips and looked as if she didn't care. Then she said, "Alright, let's not talk nonsense. What does that person want from me?"
Old Ma took out a sealed envelope from his bosom and handed it to her. He said, "He didn't tell me either. He just gave me this letter and asked me to pass it to you. He said that you would know what to do after reading it."
Song Wenji's expression changed slightly. She stared at the letter for a moment and was about to reach out to take it when she suddenly retracted her hand. She then took out a pair of thin leather gloves from her bosom and put them on. Only then did she solemnly receive the letter. He looked as if he was facing a formidable enemy, as if he was afraid that the letter would be laced with poison, or that the thin letter contained some extremely dangerous and frightening mechanism.
Old Ma was also a little stunned. After a while, he couldn't help but say, "It can't be like this, right?"
Song Wenji glanced at him indifferently and said, "If you say it's not necessary, then it's not necessary. I'm not familiar with you. Besides, who knows if you've colluded with someone in secret to harm me? "
Old Ma was speechless. He just waved his hand and said nothing.
Song Wenji carefully opened the letter and took out a piece of paper from the envelope. She was very careful throughout the process, but things were just as Old Ma said. Nothing happened.
Song Wenji remained calm and composed. She didn't feel embarrassed at all. On the contrary, she even took two steps back, further away from Old Ma. Only then did she open the letter and read it, looking like she didn't believe anyone at all.
Old Ma also felt helpless. He thought about it and decided to show that he didn't have any ulterior motives, so he simply took a few steps back.
Song Wenji was originally about to read the letter, but at this time, she slightly raised her eyes to look at him. But that was all. She didn't show any other expression on this charming woman. Then, her gaze focused on the letter and she carefully read it.
Old Ma had the letter for a long time, but he really didn't peek at what was written on the letter along the way. First, he didn't have this intention, and second, he really didn't dare to. But this matter clearly showed that what was written in the letter was the most important, so he also stared at Song Wenji, wanting to see something from her expression.
But from beginning to end, Song Wenji's expression didn't change at all. It was as if she had just finished reading an ordinary letter that didn't matter. After she finished reading, she silently folded the letter with her thin leather gloved hands, and then she rubbed her hands a few times. Suddenly, a flame emerged from her palms. Green smoke rose, and the paper was ignited.
Old Ma subconsciously took a step forward. Song Wenji raised her head and looked at him. Old Ma immediately stopped and spread his hands to show that he didn't have any ulterior motives.
Song Wenji faintly looked at him. The flame on her palms burned very quickly, and soon, the entire letter was swallowed up, and all the words on it were burned to ashes.
The woman let go of her hands, and the flame dimmed. The ashes drifted away with the wind, and the disappeared words turned into nothingness, scattered between heaven and earth, and could no longer be found.
Old Ma looked at her, and suddenly felt that the scene in front of him seemed a little familiar. It seemed like the young man from many years ago. They both stood in the dark shadows, silently and alone. In an environment that ordinary people might go crazy, they persevered and tenaciously lived.
Sometimes, even Old Ma himself would wonder what supported such a person.
"I'm leaving." Song Wenji said very casually, as if nothing had happened before.
"It's almost dawn!" When she left, she seemed to say this with some emotion, and there was a bit of a gratified look on her face.
Then, she really left this place, and didn't look back along the way.
Old Ma stood where he was for a while, and then looked up at the sky. He saw the sea of blood in the sky, rolling and gloomy, still pressing towards the center of the city. The sky would only get darker and darker, and there was no sign of it getting brighter.
Old Ma sighed, and turned to look at the ancient roads at the edge of the immortal city in the distance. He looked at the people who were still leaving the bustling city in an endless stream, and said to himself in a low voice, "It's not that Master doesn't trust him, maybe he wants to protect him. As for me … "
His voice gradually became lower, and there was a bit of self-mockery on his face. His voice didn't sound too real.
…
In the end, Lu Chen still felt that there seemed to be something wrong with him. The reason why he only realized it after a long time was because he finally realized that there seemed to be an important person missing from his side. In the past days, that seemingly useless fatty was actually the only one who would tell him the truth and give him timely advice.
Now that he was gone, in this period of time, Lu Chen felt like he had returned to the feeling of being in the Devil Sect in the past. He let go of the shackles in his heart, and looked down on life and death more and more. His attacks became heavier and heavier, and killing became easier and easier. Moreover, after killing, he would get a faint sense of pleasure.
This was something that he had never encountered when he was in the Devil Sect.
Atsu woke him up. One morning, when he woke up, the first thing he saw was a pair of bloodthirsty red eyes.
Lu Chen was shocked, and then suddenly, as if he was enlightened, he suddenly woke up from his trance.
The events of the past few days quickly floated up in his mind, and then he broke out in a cold sweat from the shock.
"What the hell!"
