Chapter 175 Angry
In the blood-red projection screen, a member of the Wang family, his chest pierced by a branding knife, slowly collapsed in front of the unconscious Zhang Qiling.
Behind the Wang family, Yan Huai, his dark blue robe tattered, his face and body covered in blood, his eyes gleaming with a murderous intent, seemed to finally reveal Yan Huai's true nature when they met through the projected screen...
However, a ruthless and malicious glint flashed past, breaking Zhang Qiling's daze and slightly choked breathing. His pupils contracted, and before he could even react, Qi Yu, who had the same expression in his hand, was thrown aside, causing him to fall face down.
What made Qi Yu even more uneasy was that when he got up and looked up again, there was no one in front of him.
Where are Zhang Qiling people?!
The projector hanging in mid-air gave him the answer...
Consciousness was outside the realm of existence. Zhang Qiling's hand, which was half-gripping the Black Gold Ancient Blade, suddenly tightened. In his open eyes, he did not see Yan Huai's shadow, only the blade imbued with phoenix flames that was attacking Yan Huai's back.
Ke Yanhuai seemed to still be reeling from the sudden awakening of Zhang Qiling. He stared at the azure dragon pattern that appeared on the other's neck, his heart feeling as if it were being enveloped by something burning hot, and then burning repeatedly.
The black and gold ancient sword passed by, and by the time Yan Huai reacted, his body had already instinctively grasped Zhang Qiling's right hand—the pitch-black blade was covered in cyan, and after the two merged, they finally shattered the Wang family's sharp blade, just like that decapitated corpse...
The several skirmishes between Yan Chen and the seven members of the Yan family gradually subsided. The group, looking somewhat disheveled, huddled together, but their faces showed undisguised relief and the same regret that could not be made up for in the past.
The grudges and conflicts unknown to outsiders quietly came to an end. None of the Wang family members who entered the Qinling Mountains returned.
The dark mist in Yan Huai's eyes had dissipated at some point. He released his grip and looked at Zhang Qiling with a complicated expression. Just as he was about to say something to cover up his guilty conscience, a not-so-unfamiliar voice came from above.
"Yanhuai, it's a deal..."
As the world consciousness finished speaking, everything around them began to become clear, and even the messy traces of the previous fight were deliberately erased by an invisible force.
Corpses, bloodstains, scents, destroyed trees... all these things have been restored to their original state, as if their battlefield with the Wang family had never existed.
Yan Huai remained calm and expressionless, but when he looked at Zhang Qiling, he seemed to be probing for forgiveness after making a mistake. He lightly touched Zhang Qiling's wrist, but the other party avoided it by using the action of sheathing his knife.
Oh no, I'm so angry...
Yan Huai touched his nose, only to find his hand covered in sticky blood.
"..."
Seeing that Zhang Qiling not only turned his head away unmoved, but also abandoned him to check on Xie Lianrui's condition, Yan Huai felt even more bitter.
Fortunately, Yan Chen and his family members came over nearby, breaking the strange atmosphere between the two.
Yan Li and Yan Yang exchanged a glance. Under the guise of confirming safety, they also went to check on Xie Lianrui's situation. Finding nothing amiss, they stood aside and nudged each other with their elbows, urging the other to probe Zhang Qiling's intentions.
Yan Chen looked at him with a mocking expression, but to be honest, he couldn't get involved in coaxing people. What mattered more to him was the World Consciousness's last words, "It's a deal."
It seems that Xiao Huai agreed to something in the illusionary space... Was it a threat, or a new agreement? Could it cause any harm to Xiao Huai?
"That guy's a smooth talker, don't fall for it! What did he say?"
As for who that guy was referring to... everyone present knew perfectly well; it was none other than World Consciousness.
Upon hearing this, Yan Huai could only temporarily abandon his plans to coax and apologize. He withdrew his gaze, but his body still leaned a few steps closer to Zhang Qiling.
At the same time, Zhang Qiling also looked up at Yan Huai's right shoulder. Although the penetrating wound there had stopped bleeding, the blackened wound made his expression even colder.
