Chapter 13067 There are 2 souls in the body
Long Chen frowned, "The Holy Temple, with its powerful strength and means, quietly uprooted the forbidden land and completely wiped out its traces from this world. Such behavior is not only shocking, but also makes people deeply doubt the true face of the Holy Temple."
Hearing Long Chen's story, Ling Xiao's face became more solemn, and his eyes seemed to be covered by a layer of dark clouds, revealing deep worry and vigilance. As a demon cultivator, the grudge between him and the Holy Hall has long been deeply rooted, and they are real mortal enemies.
However, even someone like him who had long disregarded life and death could not help but feel shocked and terrified by the terrifying power of the Holy Temple. He knew very well how difficult and dangerous it would be to be an enemy of the Holy Temple.
Long Chen seemed to have noticed Ling Xiao's change of mood. He paused for a moment, then remembered another frightening rule. He clenched his fists and spoke with a hint of indignation and helplessness:
"The Holy Hall is not only powerful, but also has extremely strict rules. In the Dazhen Dynasty, there is an unwritten rule that any warrior who wants to leave this land to explore a wider world and find better training resources must first join the Holy Hall and accept the so-called 'holy light baptism'. This is not just a ritual, but also a bondage, a deprivation of the freedom of warriors."
Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao frowned, with doubt and confusion in his eyes: "Is there no one who can escape this bondage and truly leave the Dazhen Dynasty?" There was a hint of urgency in his voice, as if he was looking for a glimmer of hope.
Long Chen suddenly said excitedly: "Of course there are! In this world, there are always some evil beings, they are gifted, powerful, and not bound by any rules. Just like a strong man like you, if you really want to leave, who can stop you?
But unfortunately, most warriors do not have such strength and courage. They can only be firmly trapped in the Dazhen Dynasty by this rule, wasting their talents and youth day after day, and can never see the outside world with their own eyes, let alone pursue the broader path of cultivation. "
At this point, Long Chen's eyes flashed with a complex emotion, including dissatisfaction and anger towards the Holy Hall, as well as sympathy and helplessness towards those bound warriors. He knew very well that in this world where the strong are respected, the rules are often made by those who stand at the top, while the weak can only silently endure it all.
"Interesting." Ling Xiao's lips curled up into a playful smile, which contained both anticipation for the secret to be revealed and a bit of indifference towards the unknown challenge.
Suddenly, his eyes seemed to penetrate the fog of space and accurately locked onto the unfathomable entrance to the mysterious area. At this moment, an unusual aura quietly approached, causing his eyes to focus.
I saw a figure slowly walking into everyone's sight in the dim light. Every step seemed to be stepping on the cracks of time, carrying an indescribable weirdness and heaviness.
Jiang Xiqing blurted out almost subconsciously: "Jiang Zhan!" There was both surprise and disbelief in her voice, because this man was the leader of the Jiang family's secret guards whom she knew, the strong man who was once known for his loyalty and bravery.
However, Ling Xiao's reaction was more acute than hers. He shook his head gently, and his eyes, which seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, flashed with complex light.
"No, that's not right," he whispered to himself, with a hint of certainty and contemplation in his tone, "He is no longer Jiang Zhan...or rather, he is not pure Jiang Zhan." This sentence was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples and making everyone present feel unprecedented shock.
Ling Xiao slowly stood up, his movements were graceful and firm, as if every step was on the vein of fate. His eyes were fixed on the gradually approaching figure, as if he wanted to see through the appearance to its essence.
"There is a second soul inside this person." His voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone, carrying an unquestionable power.
Jiang Xiqing was filled with curiosity and uneasiness when she heard this. She once again focused her attention on Jiang Zhan. This time, she observed him more carefully, trying to find the answer from every detail.
As expected, as she observed more deeply, she found that Jiang Zhan's aura was indeed subtly different from before. In that aura, in addition to the familiar aura of Jiang Zhan, there was also a hint of strange and powerful existence, like a faint light in the dark night, which made people feel cold.
At this moment, Jiang Xiqing's heart was filled with doubts and worries. She didn't know what this "Jiang Zhan" had experienced, nor did she know who the second soul was, but she knew that behind all this, there must be a huge secret and crisis hidden.
Jiang Zhan's mouth slowly curled up into a meaningful smile, which was a recognition of Ling Xiao's keen insight, mixed with a hint of subtle coldness and provocation. His eyes met Ling Xiao's cold gaze, as if two invisible forces collided in the air, stirring up invisible ripples.
"You are so amazing. Jiang Xiqing couldn't even notice anything wrong with me, but you could see through it at a glance." His voice was low and magnetic, and every word seemed to be carefully crafted, revealing a majesty that should not be underestimated.
Hearing this, Ling Xiao's lips curled up in a sarcastic arc, and his deep eyes flashed with a playful light.
"You're welcome. However, I'm curious. Are you planning to commit suicide by coming here?" His tone was full of disdain and provocation towards Jiang Zhan, as if he had already seen through the other party's intentions.
Jiang Zhan was not angry at Ling Xiao's ridicule, but just glanced at him coldly, and then turned his eyes to Long Chen. His brows were slightly furrowed, and a trace of doubt and scrutiny flashed in his eyes, as if he had a strong interest in Long Chen's identity.
"Young friend, what should I call you?" There was a hint of politeness in his voice, but beneath that politeness lay an unfathomable calculation.
"Long Chen." Long Chen responded calmly, without any emotion in his tone, as if everything was under control. He stood tall and straight, with a firm gaze, and even when facing a strong man like Jiang Zhan, he never flinched.
Jiang Zhan frowned even more when he heard this. He naturally knew Long Chen's identity - the young master of Fuzun Mansion, a person of noble status and extraordinary strength. This made him secretly regretful, and a feeling of helplessness and unwillingness surged in his heart.
"So you are the young master of Fuzun Mansion. How disrespectful." His words were filled with a bit of false respect, but he was indeed wary of Fuzun Mansion. (End of this chapter)
