Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 233 – The fox reappears

Chapter 233 – The fox reappears

Su Yun and Qiu Shuijing left Di Ping's spiritual world on Lingxi and gradually moved away from the palace using the spiritual worlds of palace maids, guards, and eunuchs as a springboard.

Ying Ying was lost and silent.

"Are you thinking about the grievances between us?" Wu Tong tried to probe her heart but found that he couldn't penetrate this little book monster's mind. Ying Ying had extremely high spiritual talent and proficiency, and after awakening the memories of scholar Ying, her proficiency increased rapidly.

Wu Tong was good at manipulating people's hearts, but he still lacked the skills to enter Ying Ying's heart.

"You died in your previous life because of me, and I was even the one who killed you." Wu Tong said, "You were deceived by him and treated as a sacrifice for me. I trusted him and was eventually deceived by him. If you want to take revenge on me, it's only natural."

Ying Ying shook her head and said, "I have awakened the memories of my previous life. I will make my own decision about who to take revenge on."

Because of Su Yun, the two of them had never had a chance to be alone. Su Yun was always worried that Wu Tong would harm Ying Ying and protected her well.

Today, Su Yun was unconscious, and Ying Ying had an adventure. By chance, she met Wu Tong, and they finally had a chance to talk things out face to face.

But as soon as the two women started talking, they realized that what they cared about might not matter to the other person.

"I just want to know, how will Mr. Qiu choose?" Ying Ying continued.

"What's difficult about that? In your eyes, this place is Di Du, but in my eyes, it's a demon's den, where demons are raised."

Lingxi leaped repeatedly and suddenly entered a pure and flawless spiritual world, which was Wu Tong's spiritual world.

Wu Tong's spiritual energy reached out and brought Ying Ying out of her spiritual world. Ying Ying then realized that they were still in the imperial city, and Wu Tong's attire looked like that of an ordinary palace maid.

Wu Tong walked outside, and Ying Ying quickly followed her by flapping her paper wings at her temples.

"The demon nature born from the human heart contaminates the vitality of heaven and earth and turns into demonic energy. The stronger one's desire for power and the more twisted one's human nature, the heavier the demonic nature becomes."

Wu Tong walked around the corner and came out as if nothing had happened. Her red skirt fluttered behind her and became longer and longer. She sneered, "You call yourselves 'obsession,' but in my eyes, it's all demonic nature. Di Ping desires immortality, desires to hold all power in his hands, and desires to live forever and rule the world. This is his demonic nature. But doesn't Qiu Shuijing have demonic nature? He wants to achieve his ambition and must join forces with Di Ping. This is the beginning of his demonic transformation."

Ying Ying was stunned and shook her head, "Mr. Qiu wouldn't do that!"

Wu Tong said indifferently, "Scholar Ying, don't gamble on human nature. Mr. Qiu is someone I respect, but this is also a great opportunity to eliminate political enemies and promote his new policies! He won't miss this opportunity. He will gradually become demonic, slowly let go of all his principles and beliefs!"

Her red skirt shook in the air, and Wu Tong quickly flew away, "Don't try to gamble on human nature with me. Su Lang gambled on human nature with me, and he has already lost!"

Ying Ying was lost in thought, and the red skirt disappeared into the sky, with Wu Tong nowhere to be seen.

"Will Mr. Qiu become the kind of person Wu Tong described?"Ying Ying regained her composure and flapped her paper wings, flying towards the fifth level of the Eastern Capital. A gust of wind blew her around in the air and she thought to herself, "I wonder how Su Shi Zi is doing. Maybe I recited the Qing Yu Town scene too many times... But then again, if Di Ping and Mr. Shui Jing really plan to deal with Dao Saint and Holy Buddha, what should we do about the Nine-headed Xiangliu inside Su Shi Zi's body?"

During the examination at Tian Dao Academy, Su Yun suddenly collapsed, convulsing and foaming at the mouth, which shocked the teachers and scholars.

There were many physicians and scholars at Tian Dao Academy who were proficient in medical skills, but Su Yun's illness was strange and they were all helpless.

Fortunately, after more than half an hour, Su Yun suddenly recovered, but he held his forehead and said it hurt.

"It feels like an axe was chopped on my head."

Su Yun told the doctor who asked about his condition, "It's still stuck in my head. My stomach is also churning, like the sheep I ate is still alive and kicking."

The physician at Tian Dao Academy gave him some medicine for his headache and stomachache and told him to rest.

Su Yun was also puzzled. This time, his illness was more severe. However, he remembered the scene of Qing Yu Town that Ying Ying recited to him very clearly. He didn't know why Ying Ying suddenly recited it to him.

"The Nine-headed Xiangliu's spirit is in symbiosis with mine, which is equivalent to a part of my spirit. Therefore, I have no idea what happened specifically."

"Something must have happened in my body that made Ying Ying fearful."

Su Yun's eyes flickered. "This is the third time Ying Ying has triggered my memory seal. The first time was when Dao Saint and I checked my memory seal together. The second time was when the Gluttonous Demon God went out of control. This time..."

He suddenly remembered that Dao Saint and Holy Buddha had mentioned that the Gluttonous Demon God had sealed 96 of them inside his body!

"Could it be that I suppressed 96 demon gods in my memory and one of them went out of control? So that's why Ying Ying recited Qing Yu Town to me?"

Su Yun was vaguely uneasy. He stopped a treasure sedan and was about to get on it when he suddenly caught sight of an old fox sunbathing lazily on the wall across the street.

Su Yun was stunned and immediately chased after it.

The old fox saw him coming and quickly flipped over and ran, leaping onto a building.

Su Yun chased after it, but the old fox darted back and forth through the alleys, agile and elusive, getting further and further away.

"I can't let you get away this time no matter what!"

Su Yun gritted his teeth, took out the wooden box, hesitated for a moment, and then put it away.

"The key to the Tongtian Tower controls the entire Eastern Capital and may be my last resort to deal with future situations. I can't expose it now!"

Suddenly, his body changed and he activated the Honglu Transformation. His body transformed into the Gluttonous Demon God and he rushed forward, jumping into the air and then suddenly leaping!

The Gluttonous Demon God jumped into the air, spun around, and suddenly a raging fire surged out of his body, exploding into a bright red feathered wing!

Su Yun flapped his wings hard, transformed into Bi Fang, and swooped down, rushing through the alleys, chasing after the wild fox.

The wild fox ran fast and suddenly turned.

The Bi Fang that Su Yun transformed into was about to hit the wall on the opposite side, but suddenly his body changed again, turning into a giant demon wolf, crouching on the wall, using its limbs to run wildly on the wall, heading straight for the wild fox!

The wild fox was fast, but since Su Yun comprehended the higher level of the Honglu Transformation, the 24 divine transformations were at his fingertips, extremely agile.

Despite the wild fox's attempts to evade, Su Yun quickly caught up to it in a dead end.The wild fox had nowhere to escape. Suddenly, it took out a pen from somewhere and drew a door on the wall, then walked into it.

"No wonder I couldn't find it last time. It turns out it has such an ability!"

Su Yun was surprised and hurried over, but he saw the door drawn on the wall gradually fading away and about to disappear.

He quickly opened the door and saw a colorful flower garden in front of him. There were many rockeries and winding corridors, each step revealing a new scenery.

Many maidservants were busy picking flowers. Someone urged them, "The master is about to come back. Pick the flowers quickly and prepare some delicious food! The master is injured and will need several days to recuperate!"

Su Yun's blood was boiling. He walked towards the busy maidservants, but they ignored him. Since meeting the girl Wu Tong, he had been fighting with her, and he had learned some of her techniques. He was able to conceal his presence from these maidservants with his Qi.

In front of him, the old fox's footsteps slowed down, as if waiting for him on purpose.

Su Yun followed the old fox all the way, and after a while, it stopped in a courtyard of this mansion, stood up, and tried to push open the door before walking in.

Su Yun followed it into this small courtyard and pushed open the door. He saw that it was a study room with various books on the shelves, but the old fox was nowhere to be seen.

Su Yun walked past rows of bookshelves and felt a familiar feeling. He randomly picked up a book and closed his eyes, lightly touching the words on it. The familiar feeling became stronger.

When he was studying under the wild fox teacher, he used to touch the teacher's handwriting with his fingers to understand the pronunciation and writing of the words. That was how he learned to read and write.

He was very familiar with the wild fox teacher's handwriting.

"I personally buried the teacher..."

Su Yun put the book back in place. At this moment, there was a rustling sound in front of him. Su Yun followed the sound carefully, passing through rows of bookshelves without making a sound.

The rustling sound in front of him gradually became clearer.

In front of a desk, a fox with its back to him suddenly pulled its belly, and its fur fell off.

The old fox touched its head, took off the fur piece by piece, shook it hard, and then hung it on the wall.

Su Yun was stunned and trembled, "Who are you? Why did you lead me here? Where did you get this fox fur?"

The person who took off the fox fur seemed not to hear him. He took out a pen and drew a door on the wall, then pushed open the door and walked in.

Su Yun hesitated for a moment, walked over, and pushed open the door.

Behind the door was a secret room, and the first thing Su Yun saw was the body of Prime Minister Wen Guanshan.
