With no other choice, Bo Yang turned to Zhou Ying and said, "It seems that only you can open the secret realm and leave. From now on, you will cultivate here and increase your cultivation."
Zhou Ying smiled bitterly, "Even if I have to cultivate, I should at least let me take a breather."
He had just gone through two big battles, adding injuries on top of injuries, he was in a sorry state.
In this kind of situation, it was not appropriate for the male lead to cultivate forcefully. Bo Yang frowned, flicked his sleeves and said, "Alright, come here, I'll help you heal."
Zhou Ying's body was full of wounds, his face was pale, and his clothes had holes and seams. If he was thrown into a crowd of people, they would probably think he was a refugee.
Bo Yang was not much better, his clothes had already been torn by the fierce aura during the fight.
Two refugees together, it was really not a good sight.
Of course, no one cared about their image, healing was more important.
When Zhou Ying heard that Bo Yang was willing to heal him, he hurriedly dragged his battered body to his side. Bo Yang only wanted to get out as soon as possible, so he did not waste any time and directly turned him around, using his demonic energy to heal him.
Demonic energy and spiritual energy repelled each other, so it was not easy for them to get along. If it was not done well, it would instead worsen the injury. However, this was not a problem for someone with high cultivation.
Bo Yang concentrated on healing Zhou Ying's meridians, so the cell with only the two of them was very quiet.
After an unknown amount of time, Bo Yang felt that it was about time, so he let Zhou Ying heal himself.
As the Son of Seven Stars, Zhou Ying was favored by the heavens, so his body was different from normal people. If it was a normal person who forcefully raised his cultivation to the Great Ascension realm, they would have already exploded and died, but he was able to withstand it and gradually recover. Because he forcefully raised his cultivation, his meridians had widened, and his cultivation showed signs of improving.
In the Mysterious Dragon Secret Realm, Bo Yang could not do anything else, so he could only stay on the side and watch Zhou Ying, monitoring his condition.
After a while, Zhou Ying opened his eyes, his dark pupils were shining like gems — — this was a sign that his cultivation had increased.
His spirit was much better, and his face was rosy. There was no trace of injury at all.
Bo Yang was secretly amazed by his physique. Just as he was about to remind him to quickly come out of seclusion, Zhou Ying suddenly spoke.
"Are you Mr. Xie?"
Bo Yang was slightly stunned.
Zhou Ying's eyes were very clear. She stared at him quietly and asked again, "Are you Mr. Xie who gave me the pill that time?"
Bo Yang subconsciously retorted, "No."
Zhou Ying said, "Don't lie to me. You are Mr. Xie!"
Bo Yang was expressionless. "Don't spout nonsense."
Zhou Ying said, "There's no point in denying it. I know it's you."
Bo Yang: "…"
Just as he was about to deny it again, he remembered that he had broken off relations with Lou Jianfeng and was trapped in the Arcana Realm. Everything he had done had been seen by Zhou Ying. It seemed that there was no need to hide it, so he sighed.
His silence was the best answer.
Zhou Ying's expression became extremely complicated. After a while, she asked, "The person who saved me in the Mirage of Secret Flower was also Mr. Xie, right?"
This made Bo Yang very surprised. He couldn't help but look at Zhou Ying. "How did you know?"
When Zhou Ying fell down the cliff and was unconscious, how did he know that he was the one who saved him?
Zhou Ying said, "I woke up halfway. I remember what Mr. Xie said to me. He said that I was the Chosen One and would definitely not die. Mr. Xie's words encouraged me and allowed me to hold on. I even got the Dragon Sword."
So this kid woke up halfway!
"How did you know it was me?" Bo Yang asked.
Zhou Ying said, "I didn't dare to confirm it before. Then I met Mr. Xie at the restaurant in Anning Town. I felt that Mr. Xie's figure was very familiar. After chatting, I felt that Mr. Xie's voice was very similar to the one I heard in the Mirage of Secret Flower. However, I still didn't dare to confirm it. After many times, I was sure that it was Mr. Xie."
Bo Yang was speechless.
No wonder when he wrote a letter to Zhou Ying asking him to go down the mountain, this kid went down the mountain without a second thought. At that time, he was still wondering why Zhou Ying trusted him so much. It turned out that this guy had suspected him from the beginning.
Zhou Ying's expression was complicated. "Speaking of which, after I came out of the Mirage of Secret Flower and went to the Heavenly Punishment Stage, I was almost torn to pieces. Fortunately, I was kidnapped by the Demon race and escaped. Now that I think about it, Mr. Xie kidnapped me and Senior Sister Zhao to save me."
Bo Yang was speechless.
The male lead's brain was not simple!
Zhou Ying continued, "After that, Mr. Xie gave me pills twice and secretly helped me cultivate. I misunderstood Mr. Xie many times and even hurt Mr. Xie. It's my fault!"
As he spoke, he actually knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Bo Yang. "I'm sorry!"
Bo Yang was shocked. He could not accept the male lead's bow and hurriedly avoided it. At the same time, he helped him up. "Don't kneel to me for no reason."
Zhou Ying was very emotional. "Mr. Xie, Zhou Ying will never forget your great kindness to Zhou Ying!"
Bo Yang's head hurt. "I don't ask for anything in return. You just need to cultivate well and ascend to the Upper Realm."
"Mr. Xie, I don't understand." Zhou Ying's face flushed with emotion. "I don't understand why you're helping me like this. Why?"
Why?
Because I want to go home.
Bo Yang did not know how to explain the reason, so he changed the topic. "I'm just helping you. Why are you asking so much? Cultivate quickly and we can get out of here sooner. "
Zhou Ying did not listen to him and continued to ask questions. "Mr. Xie, I must understand why you're helping me like this."
"Because I want the Dragon Sword."
Bo Yang was too lazy to argue with him. He just gave him a reason to dismiss him.
Unfortunately, Zhou Ying was not an idiot. He was not easy to fool. He shook his head and said, "Mr. Xie, you always say that you want the Biyun Zhu or the Dragon Sword before you help me. But I don't think so. Can you tell me the truth?"
Bo Yang was already anxious. He became even more irritated when he was questioned. He said angrily, "Fine, I'll tell you the truth if you want it. I'm only helping you because you have something I need. Are you satisfied now?"
Zhou Ying did not seem to understand why he was suddenly angry. He was slightly startled and then said, "I have something that you want? What is it? "
Bo Yang waved his sleeve impatiently. "I can't tell you now. Just cultivate quickly and ascend. You'll know when the time comes."
Zhou Ying was silent for a moment and said, "If you have any requests, Zhou Ying will definitely satisfy you."
"Then you must remember what you said today." Bo Yang was still anxious. "If I have any requests and you don't give them to me, don't blame me for being rude."
Zhou Ying hurriedly promised, "Don't worry, I, Zhou Ying, swear to the heavens that I will keep my promise and give you what you want."
Bo Yang's irritated heart was slightly comforted. At least the situation was not the worst. At least the mission could still be completed.
He gave Zhou Ying a push. "Cut the crap and hurry up and cultivate!"
"Okay." Zhou Ying obediently sat on the ground and began to cultivate.
When he was cultivating, golden threads suddenly appeared on the indestructible stone walls around him. They were like spider webs crawling all over the stone walls in all directions. Threads of spiritual energy flowed out from the golden threads and gathered into Zhou Ying's body like smoke.
With such dense spiritual energy nourishment, Zhou Ying's cultivation speed increased by several times.
Seeing this, Bo Yang let out a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Zhou Ying would cultivate for ten or even a hundred years and still not be able to get out. Then he would also be locked in there.
With this kind of cultivation speed, he should be able to break through to the Great Ascension Realm very quickly.
The Mystery Dragon Secret Realm was a place specially created for the male lead to cultivate. It was also one of the places where the Dragon Sword was called the golden finger. Entering the Mystery Dragon Secret Realm would allow one to cultivate quickly and also hide from enemies. The exit of the Mystery Dragon Secret Realm was not the same as the entrance. The exit was random. If they entered the Mystery Dragon Secret Realm from Phoenix City, it was very likely that they would not be in Phoenix City when they exited. As for where the exit was, no one knew.
Bo Yang felt that as long as the exit was not in Phoenix City, it would be safe.
There was no sun or moon in the mountain.
The waves hit the beach wave after wave.
A tall figure stood by the beach, calmly staring at the red sun that was slowly rising above the horizon. The sea breeze blew his black hair, brushing his tall nose and fair face.
His black robe fluttered, the waves stealthily soaked his shoes, but he still stood there silently, as if he was a statue.
A black-clothed man came from afar and knelt down on one knee in front of him. "Master, Lord Lou has arrived."
The sound of the water rustling could be heard.
The Eternal Night Devil calmly said: "Let him come here."
"Yes."
The black-clothed man stood up and quickly left.
Not long after he left, Lou Jianfeng came from afar, came to the Eternal Night Devil's side and clasped his hands: "Master, your subordinate has something important to report."
The Eternal Night Devil didn't even look at him, still staring at the rising sun in front of him, and simply said: "Speak."
Lou Jianfeng followed his gaze, only to see nothing on the flat surface of the sea.
He didn't know what there was to see on the surface of the sea, so he looked away and said: "It's about Xie Zetian."
"I know" the Eternal Night Devil said.
Lou Jianfeng was slightly startled: "Master knows?"
The Eternal Night Devil finally turned his head, his dark eyes quietly staring at him: "Didn't you send me a letter before?"
Lou Jianfeng said: "Master, the letter didn't say it clearly, but it's about the defection of the Demon race. Your subordinate felt that it was necessary to report it to you in person, so I hurried over … …"
He didn't understand why the Demon King stayed at the seaside.
The Northern Boundary Monolith had already been destroyed, so the Demon King should have returned to the Demon Realm from the North Pole, but for some reason, he suddenly changed directions halfway and came to the nearest Bewildering Sea, where he stayed for half a month.
The destruction of two Boundary Monoliths in the Human Realm alarmed the entire Cultivation Realm, so Lou Jianfeng was summoned back to the Tengyun Sect to discuss important matters, and only recently was he able to find time to meet the Demon King. Of course, he had already told the Demon King about the matter through a letter, but he was still worried, so he came in person.
"Defection?" The Eternal Night Devil said indifferently: "There's no defection."
Lou Jianfeng said anxiously: "He faked your order to save the real Child of Destiny … …"
"He was acting on my orders." The Eternal Night Devil interrupted him.
Lou Jianfeng's eyes widened in disbelief: "Master, he was really acting on your orders?"
The Eternal Night Devil was expressionless: "Of course."
Lou Jianfeng: "… …"
Suddenly, all his words were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say anything.
That's not right!
Xie Zetian's reaction, his actions, were obviously a form of betrayal, so why did the Master say that he was acting on his orders?
… … Could it really be?
"Why?" Lou Jianfeng didn't understand, and he was a bit agitated: "Master, if you really didn't want Zhou Ying to die, you could've not given the order at the beginning. Even if you changed the order midway, you should've informed me directly, not Xie Zetian!"
No matter what he said, it wasn't right. The Master wasn't someone who would joke about orders. After thinking about it, there was only one explanation: the Master wanted to protect Xie Zetian!
He had risked his life in the human world, and was conscientious and conscientious for the great cause of the Demon World. He had to be careful everywhere, but the Master wanted to protect a traitor?
Lou Jianfeng quickly controlled his emotions, lowered his head and said: "I'm sorry, Master, I was rude."
The Eternal Night Devil's eyes were pitch-black. After a moment, he said: "You did well, but Xie Zetian was indeed acting on my orders."
Hearing this, Lou Jianfeng's lowered face twisted for a moment.
Very good, I worked so hard to build up my foundation in the human world, and Xie Zetian was given the Shadow Guards as soon as he arrived, equal to me. The Master clearly didn't trust me, and sent him to keep me in check.
Now, the Master wanted to protect him again.
Lou Jianfeng's wavering heart finally calmed down. It was time for him to make plans for himself.
He raised his head and said respectfully: "Since it's the Master's order, then this subordinate has been meddlesome. This subordinate will take his leave."
After saying that, he took two steps back, then turned around and disappeared into the morning light by the seaside.
The Eternal Night Devil watched him leave, still expressionless. … …
Mystic Dragon Realm.
After an unknown amount of time, just as Bo Yang was about to fall asleep, a loud noise suddenly woke him up.
Bo Yang immediately opened his eyes and jumped up from the ground, fully alert. "What happened?"
"The door is open." Zhou Ying withdrew his fist and said to him with a smile.
In front of him, a hole was opened in the originally indestructible stone wall. Dust was everywhere, and the stones were scattered all over the place.
Bo Yang was stunned for a bit, then happily said: "We can go out now!"
"Yes, we can go out now." Zhou Ying said.
Bo Yang immediately rushed into the hole. "Let's go."
Zhou Ying smiled and followed him out of the hole.
Outside was a patio, surrounded by stone walls, but there was a hole at the top, and the sun's rays were shining in through the hole.
Bo Yang had been locked up for a long time, so he was extremely excited. Without thinking, he flew up and jumped out of the hole.
As soon as he went out, water poured into his face.
Bo Yang was caught off guard and choked. He hurriedly dog-dived in the water and used his spirit energy to isolate himself from the water.
Fuck, the exit is actually in the water!
He choked until his eyes were red, and his nostrils were burning. He didn't know if it was in a lake, a river, or the sea.
Ugh, there was a salty taste in his mouth, so it should be the sea.
Please don't be at the bottom of the sea.
Bo Yang held his breath and used his spirit energy to rush up, then directly rushed out of the water.
It wasn't the bottom of the sea, it seemed to be very shallow.
He stepped on the water's surface and looked around. What entered his eyes was the distant sea level and spectacular clouds.
It really was the sea.
He sighed and turned around, planning to find the nearest land to go ashore. As soon as he turned around, he saw the nearby beach, as well as the person standing on the beach.
The whistling sea breeze blew that person's robe and hair, revealing a delicate and cold face.
Eyes, nose, mouth … Ah, why are they so familiar?
Isn't this the great Demon King?
But, but it shouldn't be?
Why is the Eternal Night Devil here?
The exit of the Mystery Dragon Secret Realm was random. Even he didn't know where it was, so how could the Demon King know?
So it's a coincidence?
Bo Yang's mind was blank, and he stood stiffly on the surface of the sea.
It should be a coincidence, right?
But … but why are my legs so weak?
I feel … I feel like I'm going to kneel down.
