Stealing the Pen: Kirin's Primordial Lotus

At that moment, Wu Xie was struck by lightning and learned so much complicated information. The amount of information was so huge and shocking that it instantly stirred up a storm in his already restless heart, and his mind was in turmoil. And at this critical moment when his mind was lost, a mysterious person who had been lurking in his shadow seized the opportunity and quickly took advantage of the opportunity like a ghost.

At this moment, everyone present was exhausted, as if all the strength in their bodies had been drained. They lowered their heads, nodding slowly, like a candle in the wind, which could go out at any time. No one noticed that Wu Xie, who also lowered his head, had quietly changed at some point, as if his soul had suddenly been replaced. Even Fatty Wang, who was tightly attached to Wu Xie, did not notice anything unusual at this moment.

At the same time, Hua Yu and Zhang Qiling, who were on the top floor, were concentrating on absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy to replenish their own losses. They were so focused that they had no time to take care of other things, so naturally they failed to notice the changes happening below in time. As a result, Wu Xie was unprepared and the mysterious person successfully controlled his body and mind.

Time passed by minute by minute, and finally, the cleaning work in the ancient building was completed. Xie Yuchen struggled to break free from Zhang Haike's hand, and slowly walked out of the room with a staggering step. However, before he set out on the road to the top floor to find his father and father, an abrupt figure broke into his peripheral vision. Xie Yuchen subconsciously turned his head to look, but was surprised to find that the figure was Wu Xie, who was supposed to be with the others!

Wu Xie was seen wandering aimlessly in the corridor on the fifth floor with a dazed look and erratic steps. Xie Yuchen's heart tightened, and an ominous premonition came to his mind. He walked forward quickly, stretched out his hand to hold Wu Xie's shoulder, and asked in a deep voice: "Wu Xie, why are you here? Aren't you supposed to be with Huo Xian Gu and the others? What happened?"

"Huo Xian Mushroom? She's dead!" Just this sentence, uttered lightly from Wu Xie's mouth, was like a thunderclap in Xie Yuchen's ears. Wu Xie raised his head slightly, and the look in his eyes instantly made Xie Yuchen feel like he was falling into an ice cellar and facing a great enemy.

Xie Yuchen stared at Wu Xie's eyes in horror. His eyes, which were originally black and white, were now swallowed by endless darkness, without any white in them, like two bottomless black holes. What was even more horrifying was that Wu Xie had a very strange smile on his face, which seemed to be neither crying nor laughing, revealing an indescribable gloom and terror.

At this moment, Xie Yuchen's eyes moved downwards, and he suddenly discovered that scarlet blood was slowly flowing down from Wu Xie's fingertips, dripping onto the ground, splashing blood flowers.

"You are not Wu Xie! Who are you?" Xie Yuchen could no longer suppress his fear and anger. His voice suddenly rose, so sharp that it could almost pierce a person's eardrum. This sudden shouting not only scared Zhang Haike and others who were rushing to help, but even the air around them seemed to freeze at this moment.

Zhang Haike and his companions ran all the way to Xie Yuchen's side. Before they could ask about the situation, they looked in the direction of Xie Yuchen's trembling finger. In an instant, they were also stunned by the scene in front of them - they saw that the 'Wu Xie' who should have been very familiar to them was like being possessed by an evil ghost, staring at them with his eyes without whites, and still had that weird smile on his face, which made people shudder. Looking more closely, the corners of 'Wu Xie's' mouth seemed to be stained with some unknown liquid, which was shining with a disgusting luster under the moonlight.

"No, block the way! Get out of the way!" Wu Xie stared at the front with a gloomy face, speaking word by word, as if every word contained endless anger and majesty. When the last word fell like thunder, Xie Yuchen and others suddenly felt a strong and suffocating wind sweeping towards them.

This strong wind was like a raging sea, surging in with overwhelming force. Xie Yuchen, Zhang Haike, and Zhang Hailong were blown all over the place in an instant, unable to stand firmly. They looked at each other in horror, turned around without hesitation, and ran towards the nearest room next to them, trying to avoid this terrifying strong wind.

After entering the room, the two quickly closed the door and lay on the gap of the window, looking out nervously. They saw that Wu Xie just lightly lifted his foot, and the whole person was like a ghost, and in the blink of an eye he had walked ten meters away. This speed was incredible, as if he could move instantly, which made people dumbfounded.

When Wu Xie passed by their hiding place, he suddenly stopped, turned his head slightly, and glanced coldly at Xie Yuchen and Zhang Haike in the house with his dark, emotionless eyes. Just this one glance made Xie Yuchen feel a chill rising from his spine. In those deep eyes, he clearly saw a trace of undisguised disdain, and the contemptuous look that regarded them as insignificant like ants.

Then, Wu Xie's thin lips moved slightly, and he whispered: "You who don't know your own identity, are you qualified to stop me?" Although the voice was not loud, it hit Xie Yuchen's heart like a heavy hammer.

From childhood to adulthood, Xie Yuchen had never been looked down upon like this. He clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging deep into his palms, in order to restrain the anger that was about to burst out of his heart. However, reason told him that the current situation was extremely unfavorable for them, and if he acted rashly and impulsively, he would probably only bring himself greater danger. So, despite his heart full of humiliation and unwillingness, Xie Yuchen still suppressed his anger, stared at the arrogant "Wu Xie" outside the window with wide eyes.

"Hmph, you are nothing but a poor creature without even a body. You can only survive in a dark corner like a rat that cannot stand the light. If you had not occupied someone else's body, how could you dare to speak so arrogantly in front of me?" Xie Yuchen looked at 'Wu Xie' in front of him with disdain, his eyes full of disdain.

At this time, Wu Xie only raised his mouth slightly, revealing a contemptuous smile, as if everything the other party said was not worth mentioning to him. He responded lightly: "Haha, I am in a good mood today, and I am too lazy to argue with you, a young boy. However, a small punishment is still necessary, otherwise you will definitely suffer a great loss in the future. Remember, this is all my good intentions for you."

As soon as he finished speaking, an unexpected scene occurred. Xie Yuchen, who was originally standing, suddenly seemed to lose control of his body. His legs bent involuntarily, and then he knelt straight on the ground. No matter how he struggled and resisted, he could not get rid of the shackles of this strange force.

After Wu Xie turned and left, Zhang Haike and the others hurried forward to pull Xie Yuchen up from the ground. However, no matter how hard they tried, even when several people worked together, they still failed to move Xie Yuchen. Just when everyone was extremely anxious, Xie Yuchen, who had been silent and had a terribly gloomy face, suddenly stretched out his hand and pushed Zhang Haike and the others who were surrounding him to the side.

Xie Yuchen straightened his spine slowly, glanced coldly at Zhang Haike and others, and said in a cold tone: "Enough! Stop wasting your energy. That guy is not someone we can afford to provoke. We have no idea where he came from. It is like hitting a rock with an egg if we try to fight against such a mysterious monster with our ordinary mortal bodies. Instead of doing these useless things here, it is better to save some energy and think about how to escape from this damn place later!"

Zhang Haike and the others knew clearly that Xie Yuchen was extremely angry at the moment and in a terrible mood. If his physical condition did not allow it, with his violent temper, he would probably tear the entire five-story building upside down.

"Xiaohua, don't be anxious. In my opinion, since the monster is heading straight to the top floor with great momentum, it will definitely encounter the young prince and the clan leader on the way. As long as the young prince and clan leader Wu can successfully subdue it, the magic cast by the monster can naturally be broken." As he said that, Zhang Haike waved his hand to signal other bystanders to leave, and then he knelt on the ground like Xie Yuchen.

After Xie Yuchen had been a little bit upset for a while, his mood gradually stabilized and he had come back to his senses from his previous state of resentment. He closed his eyes tightly, trying to calm the waves in his heart, and the anger in his eyes gradually died down. After a short pause, he began to arrange the follow-up matters in an orderly manner: "That monster claimed that Huo Xiangu had died. Whether it is true or not, you should send someone to check it out immediately. In addition, check all the people in the ancient building thoroughly. If Huo Xiangu's confidant is still alive, or if she herself is still alive, we must do our best to rescue her. After all, words are not enough. If we explain to the Wu family by ourselves, they may not believe it. It is better to let them hear the exact news from others. It will be more convincing." Zhang Haike naturally knew that they could not participate in the battle on the top floor, nor could they help much. It would be better to provide off-site support and control everything off-site in their own hands.

"I understand. I'll go and arrange the relevant matters." Zhang Haike stood up quickly and left the room in a hurry. After leaving the room, he turned back and told Zhang Hailong who was guarding the door: "Hailong, wait here for a while. You must always obey Xiaohua's orders and instructions." After that, he led the other personnel to walk quickly towards the third floor. The purpose of their trip was to find people who might still be alive.

At the same time, Wu Xie was like a ghost, and he did not encounter any obstacles along the way, and easily reached the top floor. He stood quietly in front of the door of the only room on the top floor, first took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled a breath of white air, as if he was doing some kind of ritual.

At this moment, a deep and attractive voice suddenly came from the room: "Since you have come, please come in! We have been waiting for Pangu the Great God for a long time."

When Wu Xie heard the other party call out "Great God Pangu", his body shook slightly and he froze in place. For several seconds, he stood there motionless, and countless memories of the past seemed to be surging in his mind. But soon, he came back to his senses, and his expression returned to his usual cold and indifferent state.

"Indeed, it has been a long time since anyone has called me like that. You are the first, but I'm afraid you will be the last person who dares to call me like that." After saying this, 'Wu Xie' reached out without hesitation and pushed open the closed door in front of him.

As the door slowly opened, the scene inside the room gradually appeared in front of Wu Xie. In the middle of the room, Zhang Qiling and Hua Yu stood side by side, standing straight like two tall green pines. They exuded an invisible pressure that made people dare not underestimate them easily.
