Chapter 268 Sculpture
After a long while, Wu Qingyuan looked at Xingnong with suspicion and said in a deep voice.
"Old man, what you just said is true. Don't make it up to deceive me just to get me to save her!"
Wu Qingyuan was obviously shocked by what Xingnong said, and his expression was full of doubt.
"This is just my guess. I can't guarantee it completely, but I'm about 80% sure!" Xingnong thought for a moment and replied thoughtfully.
"Oh?" Wu Qingyuan's eyes moved slightly and he spoke lightly.
"According to what you said, where is the Flame Spirit Beast now?"
"After I see it with my own eyes, what's the point of believing you?"
Hearing this, Xingnong frowned slightly, raised his finger and pointed at the unconscious Xue Wuran, and spoke slowly.
"Now, he is the only one who knows where the Flame Spirit Beast is..."
"But...he was too excited just now and fainted."
After hearing what Xingnong said, Wu Qingyuan glared at Xingnong, and a ray of light flashed from his index finger and gathered at the fingertips, and then hit Xue Wuran.
The light fell on Xue Wu Ran's body and slowly merged into his body.
Not long after, Xue Wu Ran coughed twice and slowly opened his eyes.
Seeing Xue Wu Ran waking up, Wu Qingyuan strode to the bedside and looked at him eagerly.
As soon as Xue Wu Ran opened her eyes, she saw a strange face standing in front of her with a cunning smile.
Wu Qingyuan didn't waste any words and went straight to the point.
"My fellow Daoist, may I ask where the Flame Spirit Beast is?"
This Taoist priest in white robe who appeared suddenly mentioned the Flame Spirit Beast. Xue Wu Ran thought about it and realized that Xiao Hei was the only one by his side.
From the beginning, the ghost general saw Xiao Hei, then Xingnong, and Yu Shangnan, and then to the strange old man in front of him.
In an instant, Xue Wu Ran became alert and secretly accumulated spiritual power just in case.
Wu Qingyuan saw through Xue Wuran's actions, touched the whisk in his hand, and spoke slowly.
"Fellow Daoist, you are no match for me."
Wu Qingyuan’s words shocked Xue Wu Ran. Who on earth was this person who could see through his intentions?
Wu Qingyuan stared at Xue Wuran meaningfully and spoke lightly.
"Do you want to save your disciple?"
Wu Qingyuan's words made Xue Wuran's eyes light up instantly, and he asked quickly.
"You said... you can save Ying'er..."
"Otherwise? Why do you think I'm here?" Wu Qingyuan nodded confidently.
Then, his eyes flashed and he changed the subject.
"But...if you want me to save someone, it's not impossible, but I have one condition."
Convinced that Wu Qingyuan could save Wu Yuying, Xue Wu Ran seemed to have grasped a glimmer of hope and spoke without thinking.
"As long as I can save Ying'er, I will do it, no matter how hard it is."
When Wu Qingyuan saw Xue Wuran agreed so readily, he was stunned and couldn't help but doubt the authenticity of his possession of the Flame Spirit Beast.
"Seriously? If you lie to me, you will bear the consequences!"
"I, Xue Wu Ran, always keep my word!" Xue Wu Ran said with certainty.
Suddenly, Wu Qingyuan's expression turned serious. He straightened up, looked at Xue Wuran and said.
"My request is very simple. All you need is to summon the Flame Spirit Beast and let me see it."
Wu Qingyuan's words made Xue Wu Ran stunned.
I thought he would make some tricky demands, and even thought he had made the worst plan.
Even if... I had to exchange my own life for Wu Yuying's...
However, what he didn't expect was that Wu Qingyuan just wanted to take a look at Xiao Hei.
Such a simple request made Xue Wu Ran a little cautious, so he asked.
"That's it?"
"You don't have a Flame Spirit Beast, are you lying to me?" Wu Qingyuan frowned, looking a little ugly.
Wu Qingyuan's actions made Xue Wu Ran more cautious.
Why do people who see Xiao Hei in this Penglai fairyland act so weird?
Seeing that Xue Wu Ran didn't reply for a long time, Wu Qingyuan said with a little impatience.
"You really don't have a Flame Spirit Beast, and you teamed up with that old guy Xingnong to deceive me?"
Before Xue Wu Ran could reply, Xing Nong at the side couldn't help but get angry.
"Hey Hey hey!"
"Brother Qingyuan, please don't speak nonsense. When have I ever lied to you?"
Listening to Xingnong's words, Wu Qingyuan asked back with a smile.
"Haha, old man, but you went to Qianjue Ridge to ask me for help."
After hearing what Wu Qingyuan said, Xingnong seemed a little unhappy and spoke angrily.
"Who asked you to help? It's up to you to save me or not. If you don't, I'll think of other ways."
Suddenly, the two of them started arguing because of something Wu Qingyuan had said earlier.
Seeing this scene, Xue Wu Ran frowned and began to think.
After weighing the pros and cons, Xue Wu Ran looked at Wu Qingyuan and asked out of eagerness to save his disciple.
"Fellow Daoist, can you take what you just said about being able to save my disciple seriously?"
Wu Qingyuan was very angry at the moment. After hearing Xue Wuran's words, he snorted angrily and turned around.
Looking at Wu Qingyuan's attitude, Xue Wu Ran's eyes flashed, he took out the storage bag and released Xiao Hei.
He knew that the target of this Taoist priest in white robe was Xiao Hei.
"Master Xue!" As soon as Xiao Hei came out, he came to Xue Wu Ran's side.
Seeing Xiao Hei appear, Xingnong also showed a smile on his face.
"Little guy, come here quickly and give me a hug."
Xiao Hei had no concerns about Xingnong.
After hearing Xingnong's call, he immediately ran over happily.
"Where to run!"
Unexpectedly, when Xiao Hei had just run halfway, he felt darkness in front of his eyes.
In an instant, a pair of strong hands restrained him.
"Big bad guy, let me go!"
"Grandpa Xingnong, save me..."
Xiao Hei struggled desperately and asked Xingnong for help.
All of this was naturally Wu Qingyuan's behavior.
Ever since Xue Wu Ran took Xiao Hei out of the storage bag, Wu Qingyuan noticed it.
When Wu Qingyuan saw Xiao Hei's appearance, his entire expression changed.
In order to further confirm whether Xiao Hei was really a fire spirit beast as Xingnong said, Wu Qingyuan simply reached out and blocked Xiao Hei's way.
Wu Qingyuan picked up Xiao Hei and looked at him carefully.
Being stared at like this by a stranger who was stronger than himself, Xiao Hei began to feel suspicious.
Although this old man didn't look like a good person, Xiao Hei felt an indescribable sense of familiarity in his heart.
"Where are you from, little one?"
After hearing Wu Qingyuan's words, Xiao Hei didn't know how to respond.
How could it know its own origins, and its little eyes couldn't help but look at Xingnong.
"Grandpa Xingnong, please save me, he's so scary!"
After hearing what Xiao Hei said, Xue Wu Ran walked to Wu Qingyuan and looked at it warily.
Xingnong, who was standing by, naturally understood Xue Wuran's intention, and quickly spoke to Wu Qingyuan.
“Brother Qingyuan, now that the Flame Spirit Beast has seen it, it’s time to save people!”
Hearing Xingnong's words, Wu Qingyuan glanced at him and said with dissatisfaction.
"Humph, it's not your turn to teach me how to do things."
After saying this, Wu Qingyuan smiled and looked at Xiao Hei lovingly.
"Little thing, wait until I save that girl, then I'll come and reminisce with you."
Then, Wu Qingyuan's lips moved slightly, as if he was muttering something.
When Xue Wu Ran was about to reach out and pick Xiao Hei up, something strange happened.
I saw that Xiao Hei, who was originally in Wu Qingyuan's arms, gradually turned into a sculpture.
Seeing this scene, Xue Wu Ran's expression changed drastically and he stared at Wu Qingyuan intently.
"What did you do to it."
However, Wu Qingyuan seemed not to have heard Xue Wuran's words. After putting Xiao Hei aside, he walked towards Wu Yuying who was lying not far away.
Wu Qingyuan's attitude made Xue Wu Ran angry, and the Wind and Rain Sword appeared in his hand.
Xingnong, who was standing by, saw this and hurried forward to stop him.
"Fellow Daoist Xue Wu Ran, please do not be angry. This is Brother Qing Yuan's spell. It will not harm Xiao Hei."
Perhaps it was because of Xingnong's explanation and knowing that Xiao Hei was not seriously injured, Xue Wu Ran's anger gradually eased.
Now, Wu Yuying's life or death is uncertain.
If something unexpected happened to Xiao Hei again, how would he explain to Wu Yuying?
