In the slightly dark and enclosed environment, the light of the candlelight illuminated the surroundings. When Lu Ye woke up, he felt pain all over his body.
A familiar fragrance lingered at the tip of his nose. Behind his head was a warm and soft pillow. On his chest, there was a hand covering his heart. A gentle mana came from the palm, which was obviously helping him heal.
Lu Ye did not move.
He slowly recalled what had happened before.
He chased after the ghost sedan and caused the ghost sedan to counterattack. He almost died on the spot. He did not die, but the bull demon that was with him died without a trace.
Many things before that were unclear. He vaguely had some guesses, but he could not confirm them.
"Your injuries are not too serious. You should be fine after a few days of rest." In the quiet environment, Jiu Yan's voice sounded, as if a burden had been lifted.
Seeing that Lu Ye did not respond, Jiu Yan frowned. "Are you going to lie like this forever?"
Lu Ye suddenly showed a pained expression. "My head is dizzy, and my spiritual soul is a little unstable …"
He used the matter of his spiritual soul as an excuse. Jiu Yan really could not judge whether it was true or false. She could only check the condition of Lu Ye's physical body. Whether there was anything wrong with his Spirit Ocean, she was completely unsure.
Thinking back to when Lu Ye was thrown into the room with his body covered in blood, her heart skipped a beat. She almost thought that Lu Ye was dead. She checked his body in fear and found that the miserable state of Lu Ye's body wasn't his own, but someone else's.
"Then continue to rest." Jiu Yan sighed. She was at her wit's end.
Since the last time, she had been avoiding Lu Ye and tried not to have anything to do with him. Several years had passed, but she did not expect that some things could not be avoided.
God seemed to be against her, throwing her and Lu Ye into such a completely enclosed environment. A man and a woman alone together day and night made her feel uncomfortable all over.
Lu Ye lay down and realized that he was lying on Jiu Yan's lap. Obviously, Jiu Yan had been taking care of him while he was unconscious.
There was a moment of silence.
Lu Ye was still thinking about what had happened before, but Jiu Yan's mind was filled with all kinds of thoughts.
After all, it was impossible to pretend that nothing had happened. Moreover, the future of this trip was uncertain. No one knew if the two of them would be trapped here forever and never be able to escape. If that was the case, then they could only rely on each other for survival.
Since they could not avoid it, they would have to talk about it. At any rate, they could not continue living in such an awkward atmosphere in the future. They were all cultivators. There was no need for them to care so much about certain matters.
With that thought, Jiu Yan made her decision.
"I'll talk and you listen. Don't ask and don't speak," she suddenly said.
"Hmm?" Lu Ye's train of thought was interrupted as she looked into Jiu Yan's eyes. Because Jiu Yan was lying on Lu Ye's lap, their eyes met and they were almost within reach.
Jiu Yan's eyes flickered, and she avoided his gaze.
"Tell me!" Lu Ye finally realized what was going on.
Jiu Yan took a deep breath. Although she had already made up her mind, she still found it hard to say. She gritted her teeth and said, "You're a Sunshine now, so you have some understanding of the External Incarnation Technique. Banci …" Her voice trembled slightly, but she forced herself to calm down. "… is one of my incarnations! Back then, when Shen 'er was in charge of Wushuang Island, I was worried, so I sent my incarnation to help him. Shen' er did not know about this. He has never seen my incarnation. "
Lu Ye thought to himself, Just as I thought.
He had already guessed this before. If Banci was really Jiu Yan's real body, then many things could not be explained. After all, Jiu Yan was a peak Sunshine cultivator. How could she be affected by the Heaven Desire Demonic Spider?
Therefore, Banci's cultivation was real because she was just an incarnation.
Seeing Lu Ye's reaction, Jiu Yan was surprised. "You already knew?"
Lu Ye just stared at her and blinked. Jiu Yan was confused. "What's wrong?"
Lu Ye raised his hand and pinched his mouth. His meaning was obvious. You told me not to talk just now …
Jiu Yan was furious. She raised her hand and patted his chest. "You can say it now!" She had finally gathered her courage and was ready to talk to Lu Ye about this matter. However, Lu Ye played this trick!
Lu Ye's chest was already broken in several places. After being patted by her, he immediately groaned.
Jiu Yan panicked and blushed. Her action was too intimate. She did not know why she did it just now.
She quickly patted Lu Ye's chest to comfort him. However, after rubbing twice, she felt that something was wrong. For a moment, she froze …
"I'm fine. You don't have to worry about it." Lu Ye waved his hand and said, "I did have a guess about this. I only confirmed it after you told me."
Jiu Yan tried to calm herself down, but she did not know what to say.
Seeing her like this, Lu Ye asked, "Where is Banci now?"
Jiu Yan looked at him faintly. "She's dead!"
"How did she die?" Lu Ye was shocked.
"I killed her!" Jiu Yan played it down. "Why? Do you feel sorry for her?"
Lu Ye was speechless. After a long time, he said, "Why did you kill her?"
Jiu Yan snorted coldly. "My incarnation's cultivation method is special. It requires a body of Primordial Yin. After what you did to her … She can no longer cultivate. What's the point of keeping her?"
"But …" Lu Ye opened his mouth and did not know what to say for a moment. No wonder he had not seen Banci since then. It turned out that this was the reason.
Banci was killed by Jiu Yan. However, Banci was Jiu Yan's incarnation. Should he take revenge? How could he take revenge?
He couldn't take revenge on Jiu Yan. That was unreasonable.
His mind was in a mess. The truth he had been searching for for many years was suddenly placed in front of him. However, Lu Ye found that the result was not what he wanted.
Suddenly, he frowned. "That's not right!"
Jiu Yan blinked. "What's wrong?"
Lu Ye looked at her. "Senior Martial Sister, have you forgotten that I also cultivate a secret technique like incarnation?" If he did not have the Precious Blood Incarnation, he would have been deceived by Jiu Yan. However, when he thought about it carefully, some things did not make sense.
Jiu Yan pursed her red lips and did not speak. Lu Ye continued, "If you really killed her, how could you know so much about her? So, you didn't kill her. You took her back! "
It was just like how he took back his Precious Blood Incarnation. After he took back his Precious Blood Incarnation, he could clearly see everything that the Precious Blood Incarnation had experienced.
"What's the difference?" Jiu Yan looked at him stubbornly. "The truth is that there is no Banci in this world!"
"There is a difference." Lu Ye's expression was serious. If Banci was really killed by Jiu Yan, then everything would completely disappear. However, since Banci was taken back, it was different. Banci had become a part of Jiu Yan. In other words, she was originally a part of Jiu Yan. Sooner or later, she would be taken back. It was just that what happened last time had happened earlier.
Jiu Yan was annoyed. "I'm telling you this today to tell you that Banci's matter has nothing to do with me. Moreover, I have already been married."
"Senior Martial Sister has already been married?" Lu Ye was shocked. He had never heard of this at all.
Jiu Yan said, "If I hadn't been married, where would Shen 'er come from?"
Lu Ye blinked. "Didn't you pick up Chu Shen?"
"He also … I see that your face is ruddy. You should be fine now. Heal yourself!"
Saying this, Jiu Yan angrily pulled Lu Ye aside and shrank into the shadow. Her heart was full of helplessness.
Why did Chu Shen tell others everything?
Furthermore, HanCi had originally appeared in front of Lu Ye and Chu Shen with a different appearance, so even if something had really happened, Lu Ye and the others shouldn't have been able to track her down. However, at the last moment, HanCi had revealed her true appearance to Lu Ye.
Banci was her Precious Blood Incarnation. What Banci did was the manifestation of her inner thoughts. However, until today, Lu Ye still did not understand why Banci did that. As a result, Lu Ye was in an awkward position today.
Perhaps … she was unwilling? The Precious Blood Incarnation probably did not want Lu Ye to remember a face that had nothing to do with her.
Originally, she wanted to have a good talk with Lu Ye to solve their problems. However, this talk did not solve the problem. Instead, it became more troublesome.
On the other side, Lu Ye grimaced in pain. However, there was nothing he could do. He could only continue to lie on the ground and heal himself.
Two days later, Lu Ye felt much better. He stood up to investigate.
For two whole days, Jiu Yan ignored him.
When Lu Ye was recuperating earlier, he had roughly surveyed the surroundings. This place was like a secluded room. There were a few lit incense candles all around. The light in the room wasn't too dark, but it wasn't too bright either.
Strangely, the candles did not show any signs of burning. It was as if they could continue to burn until the end of time.
There was a window on both sides of the room. Red curtains hung from the window. Right in front of him, there was an exit. The door was tightly shut.
Didn't he get sucked in by the ghost palanquin? Where is this place?
With doubts, Lu Ye walked towards the tightly shut door. He raised his hand and pushed it. However, the door did not budge. He channeled his magic power but still could not push it open.
Lu Ye frowned. He raised his hand and pulled out the Pan Shan Saber.
Jiu Yan's voice rang out. "Don't do anything. If you touch anything here, something bad might happen."
Actually, there was no need for her to remind him. Lu Ye felt it himself. Almost at the same time he pulled out the Pan Shan Saber, an invisible malice enveloped him. It was as if if he dared to use the saber, nothing good would come of it.
Jiu Yan had clearly experienced this before. That was why she reminded Lu Ye.
Since she had spoken, she did not hold back. She reminded Lu Ye, "We seem to be in that ghost palanquin."
"That ghost palanquin is not that big, right?" Lu Ye asked. When he observed it on the Wanxiang Sea, the ghost palanquin was not that big. It could only hold one person. Although this secluded room was not too big, it could not hold only one person.
"The ghost palanquin has its own secrets. Look outside the window and you will know."
