Chapter 269 Who are you?
The moment Mu Qingge jumped out of the light gate, she encountered a sandstorm. The strong wind prevented her from returning to the passage, and she was carried away for a long distance. When she stopped, there was no light in her blurred vision, only darkness in front of her.
Not only was she swept out of the range of the light gate, but she also lost her direction because she could not see.
In order to avoid people close to her, she chose the most reckless option. If she couldn't find the light gate as soon as possible, she would be completely lost in the secret realm.
Even if he wasn't dead, he would have missed the three-month search period because of the time difference.
But the most important thing right now is to recover her strength, undo the spell that her master cast on her eyes, and find the light gate to return as soon as possible.
The wind and sand around her finally stopped, but the softness and flow under her feet reminded her that she was probably in a desert.
She squatted down on the spot and touched the tiny particles of sand to confirm this.
It was at this moment when she squatted that she felt the vibration of the ground at close range, and fine sand was flowing from high to low.
Although the sound of the wind in his ears was mixed with the friction of sand and gravel, which was a bit disturbing, because of his blindness, Mu Qingge's hearing became more sensitive.
She heard the tearing and colliding sounds of air currents.
She remembered the sandstorm she encountered when she jumped out of the light gate. It was not a natural wind, but an air tornado formed by the collision of forces.
Is there anyone here? She briefly reached several secret realms through the light gate, and this was the first time she encountered someone.
But now she is blind and seriously injured, so meeting people has become a dangerous thing.
The dangerous air currents were gradually approaching, which meant someone was coming this way. She couldn't see the surrounding situation clearly and could only roughly sense the terrain through her spiritual sense.
And when he senses a large obstruction, he quickly flashes behind it to hide.
But what she didn't expect was that as soon as she arrived, she bumped into something that seemed real and unreal. When she was about to summon her sword to fight back, someone covered her mouth and nose.
"Shh!" The man hugged her from behind and made such a sound in her ear.
The man was terribly cold, and judging by the way he was able to wrap his arms around himself, he must be a tall man.
"Are you alive?" The man asked in a low voice, somewhat surprised. "No wonder they came here?"
living person?
Mu Qingge frowned. What kind of statement was this? Could there be dead people who could walk and hide?
"If you want to live, listen to me, hold your breath, and don't make any noise."
Although Mu Qingge was alert, she did not sense any hostility, so she held her breath and nodded as he said.
Seeing how obedient she was, the man loosened his hands that were covering her and looked towards the green light and black fog approaching in the distance.
There was finally light in the dark vision. Although it was just a green spot, it gave Mu Qingge a basis for identification.
She listened carefully, but did not hear any footsteps, only the sound of several air currents blowing long traces on the sand pile. It felt like the person coming over was not walking, but dragging his body slowly on the ground.
Her action attracted the attention of the man behind her. He glanced at her wide-open eyes and subconsciously stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Mu Qingge.
But she caught it in an instant, and it was this sudden movement that brought about a sound.
“It’s a living soul!”
An excited voice came from the black fog.
"Not good!" The man behind him pulled Mu Qingge up and ran, "Can you fly a sword?"
Mu Qingge nodded, but felt a little embarrassed. In her current situation, she could summon the sword, but she might not be able to control it.
But hearing the man's tone and the obviously dangerous aura approaching from behind, he could only forcibly summon his sword. Just as he was about to infuse spiritual power into it, the Flying Fish Sword suddenly moved on its own.
The next moment, the man embraced himself and jumped onto the sword, rising into the somewhat cold sky.
She couldn't see the expression of the man next to her, but she could see the green light chasing after her, and there seemed to be invisible tentacles approaching her outside the light.
The man turned around on the sword, put two fingers together, crossed his hands and turned them over, formed a seal in front of his chest, and enlarged it the moment he pushed it out, completely isolating the green-eyed black mist that was chasing him.
After feeling the man's power, the black mist trembled with anger and shouted, "It's you again!"
The anger was hoarse, like several voices intertwined together, and it was clearly audible, as if this was not the first time that the man had fought.
But the roar sounded like a recognition to the man, causing him to smile roguely, "We are so predestined, but I offended you again."
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around, hugged Mu Qingge from behind again, and drove the Flying Fish Sword to fly quickly to the other side.
As soon as he landed, Mu Qingge pushed away the person behind him with a palm, took two steps back, and pointed the falling Flying Fish Sword at the man's neck.
Her face was already flushed, and she was obviously blaming him for his closeness and offense just now. But after a moment, she calmed down because she knew in her heart that he had to do it to save her.
He couldn't say the words to blame, but the Flying Fish Sword pointing at him did not fall.
She didn't say anything, and unexpectedly, the person on the other side didn't say anything either. Time seemed to suddenly stand still.
The light here was too dark, and Mu Qingge could not see the situation on the other side. He could only listen carefully to confirm that there was indeed a breath on the other side. Then he gritted his teeth and asked, "Who are you?"
After thinking about it, she concluded that it could only be a disciple from an immortal sect who entered the Wuji Abyss, or an evil cultivator from the Three Corpses Sect.
If it was the latter, even though he had just saved me, they couldn't coexist.
The man did not resist at all and just chuckled.
"Girl, I just saved you, and you drew your sword against me. Isn't that a bit ungrateful?"
Mu Qingge looked embarrassed. This point was really unacceptable.
Seeing this, the other side laughed again, almost inaudibly. While Mu Qingge was thinking, he moved the Flying Fish Sword a little further with his fingers, but still let it lie across his shoulder. He changed the subject, "But the situation was urgent just now, and I did offend the young lady. If the young lady pursues this matter, I will let you handle it."
Mu Qingge couldn't see his expression, but she could tell from his tone that he was definitely smiling.
However, after he made his words clear, I couldn't pursue the matter any further. If I did, I would appear ungrateful and making a big deal out of nothing.
He could only retract the Flying Fish Sword in his hand, slightly turned his body, and said in an indescribable way:
"Thank you."
The pretty girl, who was clear about gratitude and resentment, attracted several careful glances from the man opposite her. If she could not see, he would not dare to look at her directly.
After a long while, Mu Qingge could only ask again: "Who are you? Why are you here? What was that thing just now? Where is this place?"
From the conversation between him and the green light just now, it was obvious that he had been here for a long time. However, the possibility of time difference could not be ruled out. He might have just entered here earlier than me.
"You asked me so many questions in a row, I really don't know which one to answer first?"
The man's tone did not sound annoyed, but rather like he was thinking seriously.
Mu Qingge said directly: "Then let's start with you."
The man did not answer but asked: "What is your name, girl?"
Mu Qingge pursed her lips and said, "Mu Qingge."
"I am..." He paused, as if thinking for a while before saying, "A guide."
Mu Qingge slightly turned her body and faced her, obviously questioning his reply.
The person on the other side smiled again and explained, "My name involves my past. I don't want to mention it. Please forgive me, young lady."
Once again, he stated his reasons directly.
Since it was a personal matter, Mu Qingge didn't dare to ask any more questions, but after the exchange just now, she always felt that the person opposite her was somewhat familiar.
Although she couldn't see the expression of the person opposite her, she could feel his eyes on her, but she didn't feel offended.
As if possessed by a ghost, she used her only blurry vision to try hard to recognize the face of the person opposite her.
After a long time, he asked:
"Have we met before?"
