You said you could kill the evil spirits without me, why are you crying now?

Chapter 218: The Paper Man Haunting Incident in the Great Xia Empire

"Besides that weird old man, who else is there?" Chu He asked.

I spent most of my time with that weird old man.

He teaches me many fighting techniques every day.

But he never taught me any of the truly supreme secrets.
I suspected that he was on guard against me, perhaps worried that one day I would become stronger than him and get rid of him.

Of course, I have always been a man who takes revenge when I have revenge, and I avenge my injustices when I have injustices. Although the old man has locked me up there, there is no need for me to kill him.

In a sense, the old man can be regarded as my master.

But there should be many people like this old man.
For example, Chen Jia, Chen Yi and others who were killed by you.

This person was trained by the old man, but he is not the old man's apprentice.

I once heard a term from an old man called the inheritance of ancient martial arts. "

Xia Chengli squatted aside, poking the ground with a small branch in his hand.

“Why are you hostile to this old man?

Logically speaking, this old man has trained you since you were young and taught you many things.
With your strength and talent, plus your current age, you are one of the few in the world.

This requires not only that you have great potential, but also that you have a good teacher who is truly capable and able to guide you carefully.”

Chu He always felt that Xia Chengli's mood was quite strange.

"Yes, why is that?"

Xia Chengli dropped the branch in his hand and stood up: "I wouldn't have noticed it if you hadn't told me.

This hostility seems to exist deep in my soul, as if it is innate.

Could it be that I am not an orphan, but that the old man killed my family members?

Just because he saw my talent.

I happened to witness the whole process when I was just beginning to remember things. The old man didn't know about it, and I myself had forgotten many of the memories because I was too frightened.

This has led to the current unexplained hostility.”

Chu He twitched his lips and said, "You'd better stop imagining this. Otherwise, you might just frame your mentor for nothing."

"Mr. Chu is right." Xu Ping'an also nodded.

Then I heard Xia Chengli tell me some other things.

Chu He always felt that the old man Xia Chengli mentioned was hiding a huge secret.
Perhaps there is another small group of people in this world who master many things that ordinary people can hardly imagine.

But they were secretly planning many things, which made Chu He difficult to understand.

Because according to Xia Chengli, the old man is even stronger than him.

But why do such a person, or such a group of people, just hide in the dark and never show up?
Three days flew by.

In the endless battle, Xiao Yu, Nan Tingxue, Lin Zuoguang and Ye Lingyun,

He quickly mastered the powerful force that expanded within his body in a short period of time and the control over the supreme divinity.

The entire demon cave was completely cleared out by these four people.

Xiao Yu, Nan Tingxue, Lin Zuoguang and Ye Lingyun all had expressions of deep fatigue on their faces.

However, as they watched the haze dissipate, the four of them still felt a sense of accomplishment.
Their actions completely put an end to the root of the evil spirits in the Great Xia Empire.

So the group set off back to the royal city of the Great Xia Empire.

When they returned to the manor, only Liu Yuzhu was sitting on the lawn.

As for Xiao Yu, Nan Tingxue, Lin Zuoguang and Ye Lingyun, they had all returned to their respective homes or residences to rest.

They were extremely tired during this period, not only physically but also mentally.

There are many dangers in the devil's cave, even though Xia Chengli is protecting us.

However, they did not dare to put their lives entirely in Xia Chengli's hands.

Because there were several times when they almost lost their lives.

Paying close attention to the surrounding situation all the time makes your nerves extremely tired.

"Mr. Chu, you're back?" Liu Yuzhu quickly stood up and looked at Tamamonomae, Xia Chengli and Xu Ping'an behind Chu He.

Liu Yuzhu was naturally familiar with Xia Chengli, but it was the first time she saw Tamamonomae and Xu Ping'an.

Chu He briefly introduced the identities of the two people, and a hint of surprise flashed in Liu Yuzhu's eyes.

She was naturally well-known for the name Tamamonomae, and now that she was seeing her for the first time in real life, she couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

As for Xu Ping'an, Liu Yuzhu felt somewhat resistant and afraid.
This kind of resistance and fear is not deliberate, but comes from emotions that cannot be regulated psychologically.

The main reason was that Xu Ping'an looked too ferocious, even if he was just standing next to him,
It will make people feel that the surrounding temperature has dropped.

Currently, Xu Ping'an does not have enough strength to control his own aura, and it is difficult to avoid affecting the surroundings.

"Why are you here?"

Chu He slowly sat down on the chair, and then waved to Tamamonomae and Xu Ping'an.

As for Xia Chengli, there was no need for him to say anything.

Because Xia Chengli had already sat down faster than him, picked up the fruit on the table and started eating it by himself.

"My main task now is to be in charge of the communication between Mr. Chu and Her Majesty the Queen, so I will stay in this manor every day, waiting for Mr. Chu to return."

Liu Yuzhu said with a smile.

"The Great Xia Empire should be much more stable recently, right?"

Chu He picked up a grape and put it in his mouth, feeling the sweet and sour juice blooming on the tip of his tongue. It was a long-lost taste of fireworks full of the breath of life.

“Of course, the last time Mr. Chu displayed his divine power, it shocked all the empires and forces on the entire Blue Planet.

Today, no empire dares to provoke the Great Xia Empire."

Liu Yuzhu smiled and said, "Her Majesty the Queen asked me to keep an eye on him. If Mr. Chu returns, he must go to the palace.

Her Majesty the Queen had already instructed the chef in the palace to prepare a feast to thank Mr. Chu.

After all, for a person like Mr. Chu, there is nothing in the entire Great Xia Empire that can be worthy of gratitude."

"No need to be so polite with me." Chu He waved his hand indifferently.

"But Mr. Chu, I have something to ask you.

A strange thing happened in the Great Xia Empire recently, and many people turned into paper figures. "

Liu Yuzhu changed the subject and took out a stack of photos from the file bag on the table and placed them on the table.

Tamamonomae walked behind Chuhe, stretched out her slender hands, and gently massaged Chuhe's shoulders.

He was so considerate that he took a part of the photo and put it in Chu He's hand.

In those latest photos, there is an indescribable weird atmosphere.

There are many characters in the picture, but all of them have been transformed into pale and bloodless paper figures.
They come from all corners of society and have different identities: students, waiters, teachers, security guards...

Every character has lost the warmth of life and turned into a paper puppet in the memorial ceremony.

These paper figures have two glaring blushes deliberately painted on both sides of their cheeks.
The color was so bright that it was almost eerie, forming a sharp contrast with the paleness of the surrounding area.

Although the materials of their clothes have turned to nothingness, the exquisiteness and details of their clothes have been strangely preserved, still lifelike, showing their respective identities and styles when they were alive.

What is even more terrifying is that the faces of these paper figures not only retain the outlines of their ancestors when they were alive, but also solidify the emotions of that moment into eternity.

Some had their eyes wide open, filled with fear as if they could still hear the unfinished scream.

Some have a calm expression with a faint smile on their lips, but hidden behind that smile may be a deeper despair and helplessness.

What's more, there are complex emotions on his face, including guilt for the past and relief for the future.

It seemed that at this moment, all the grudges and hatreds had been reconciled in some form.

What is particularly striking is that when you look deep into the eyes of these paper figures,
You will find an indescribable smile, a smile that is forcibly distorted by some force, carrying a sense of transcendence and liberation.

It is different from any expression in life, more like the soul after a long and painful struggle.
I finally found my home and gained a moment of peace and satisfaction.

Such a smile, intertwined with the faces that were either terrified, desperate, or calm, formed an indescribable harmony, but it also made people feel cold and their scalps tingle.

The whole photo looks like a carefully arranged horror painting.
Every detail reveals a supernatural weirdness and sadness.
