Balala the Magic Fairy

Chapter 129: The Ghost Hunt in the Red Mansion (23)

The Third Prince devoted himself to cultivating Taoism in Mount Qingcheng, and had gradually abandoned the troubles of the world. However, on this day, he suddenly felt a strong sense of confusion in his heart, as if he could sense something related to Concubine Qi.

"Could it be that my mother met with an accident in the garden?" The Third Prince was extremely worried and could no longer concentrate on his cultivation. He decided to go down the mountain to track down Yi Xiu's remaining soul and find out the safety of Concubine Qi.

The Third Prince galloped day and night, relying on the Taoism he learned in Qingcheng Mountain, to pursue the vague clues all the way. On the way, he encountered all kinds of difficulties and obstacles, including evil spirits and bad weather, but he was eager to save his mother and never had the intention of retreating.

Finally, he arrived at an ancient town. There was a strange atmosphere in the town, and he keenly realized that this place might be related to Yixiu's remaining soul. After searching around the town, he learned that many people had disappeared mysteriously recently, and strange noises were often heard at night.

The Third Prince was certain that this matter must be related to Yixiu's remaining spirit. As night fell, he hid his body and quietly explored the town. He saw a black shadow moving through the streets and alleys. The Third Prince followed quietly and saw the black shadow enter an abandoned temple.

He approached the temple cautiously, and as soon as he stepped through the gate, a strong evil force rushed over. The third prince was startled and quickly used his Taoist magic to resist. Inside the temple, the candlelight flickered, and the figure of Yixiu's residual soul was approaching and elusive.

"Third prince, you actually came here!" Yi Xiu's remaining soul laughed coldly.

"Yixiu, you have done so many evil things. Tell us the whereabouts of my mother as soon as possible!" The Third Prince glared at her.

Yi Xiu's remaining soul laughed loudly, "Your mother? Her life or death now depends on my thoughts."

Upon hearing this, the Third Prince's blood boiled and he rushed towards Yi Xiu's remaining soul without hesitation. However, Yi Xiu's remaining soul lightly waved his sleeves and repelled the Third Prince.

"With your insignificant skills, you dare to compete with me?" Yi Xiu's remaining soul said contemptuously.

The Third Prince got up from the ground, his eyes determined: "Even if it costs me my life, I will save my mother!"

At this moment, a strange light suddenly burst out from the Third Prince's body. It turned out to be a magic weapon he obtained when he practiced in Qingcheng Mountain. It sensed the strong will of its master and activated itself. The light enveloped Yixiu's residual soul, temporarily restricting his movements.

The Third Prince took the opportunity to attack again and started a fierce fight with Yixiu's remaining soul. However, Yixiu's remaining soul was very powerful after all and gradually gained the upper hand.

Just when the Third Prince was beginning to feel overwhelmed, a shout was heard from outside the temple. It turned out that Zhen Huan and others had followed the Third Prince's trail and rushed over.

"Yixiu, today is the end of you!" Zhen Huan shouted.

Everyone used their own Taoist magic to fight against Yixiu's remaining soul together with the Third Prince. Facing the siege of everyone, Yixiu's remaining soul began to find it difficult to resist.

"You bunch of ants, I will never let you off easily!" Yi Xiu's remaining soul roared angrily, trying to make a final struggle.

However, everyone worked together and finally subdued Yixiu's remaining soul.

"Third Prince, your mother is fine, don't worry." Zhen Huan comforted.

Upon hearing this, the Third Prince felt relieved.

Time flies, and years pass by. After the Third Prince and Concubine Qi returned to Qingcheng Mountain, the tranquility and peace of the mountain gradually healed their inner wounds.

Qingcheng Mountain is surrounded by clouds and mist, and is quiet and beautiful. The Third Prince and Concubine Qi lived in a simple thatched cottage. Every morning, they would wake up and practice Taoism when they heard the cocks rooster. At sunset, they would sit opposite each other in front of the stone table, enjoy the bright moon and talk to each other.

In this quiet environment, Concubine Qi gradually let go of her past hatred and obsessions. She began to reflect on her past actions in the palace, and her heart was filled with regret.

"My son, I have made many mistakes in the past because of jealousy in the palace. Now I think I shouldn't have done that." Concubine Qi had tears in her eyes and her tone was full of guilt.

The Third Prince gently held Concubine Qi's hand and soothed her: "Mother, the past is like a passing cloud. Now we concentrate on practicing here, and we will surely find peace and liberation in our hearts."

During his time in Qingcheng Mountain, the Third Prince's Taoism improved day by day. He often sat alone in the mountains, blending with the nature of heaven and earth, and comprehending the true meaning of the Tao. With her son's company, Concubine Qi became more peaceful. Although her cultivation was not as good as the Third Prince's, she had made considerable progress.

At the same time, Yan Lili, Zhen Huan, Shen Meizhuang and others in the Grand View Garden were also practicing in seclusion.

Yan Lili was in the secret room, surrounded by colorful spiritual light, and the jade flute in her hand trembled slightly, making a pleasant sound. As her mind method was running, the true energy in her body rushed like a river, constantly impacting the shackles of the meridians.

Zhen Huan sat in a sea of ​​flowers, the jade pendant in her hand emitting a soft glow. She closed her eyes in deep thought, muttering something, and the flowers around her seemed to understand her spell and bloomed with more brilliant colors.

Shen Meizhuang was in a quiet cave, with a clear spring in front of her reflecting her dignified face. She formed seals with her hands, and cast spells into the water, causing ripples. The fish in the water also swam with her magic power, as if performing a mysterious dance.

After several months of closed-door training, everyone's cultivation has improved significantly. Yan Lili successfully broke through the bottleneck of cultivation and reached a new realm; Zhen Huan's magic has become more sophisticated, and she can control the power of heaven and earth at will; Shen Meizhuang has made a major breakthrough in the cultivation of her state of mind, and her mind has become more resilient and not moved by external things.

One day, a mysterious visitor suddenly came to the Grand View Garden. The visitor was dressed in a black robe, and his face was covered by shadows, so his true appearance could not be seen clearly.

"Who are you? How dare you trespass into the Grand View Garden!" Moge shouted loudly.

The mysterious man said nothing, but waved his sleeves lightly, and Mog was blown away by a powerful force.

The news soon reached Yan Lili and others who were practicing.

"How dare they act so presumptuous in the Grand View Garden? Let's go out and take a look!" Yan Lili stood up first and went there with Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang.

When everyone arrived at the garden, they saw the mysterious man standing with his hands behind his back, emitting a powerful aura.

"Who are you?" Zhen Huan asked vigilantly.

The mysterious man slowly raised his head, revealing a stern face.

"I am Pei'er, a messenger from the demon world. I have been ordered to come and challenge you, the immortal cultivators." Pei'er's voice was like a loud bell, shaking people's hearts.

"Pei'er?" Shen Meizhuang frowned slightly, "We and the Demon Realm have always kept our distance from each other, why are you here to provoke us?"

Pei'er sneered: "Humph, you cultivators are so arrogant, but you don't know that the balance of this world is about to be broken. Today, I am here to break your beautiful dreams!"

After saying that, Pei'er formed seals with his hands, and a black flame gushed out from his hands, heading straight for everyone.

Yan Lili showed no fear at all. She waved her jade flute and an ice wall instantly rose up to block the attack of black flames.

Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang also used their respective magic spells to engage in a fierce battle with Pei'er.

Suddenly, the Grand View Garden was filled with interlaced lights and roaring spells. Pei Er's spells were strange and powerful, and everyone gradually felt powerless.

"It's not a good idea to continue like this. We must attack together!" Yan Lili said loudly.

Everyone nodded and gathered their magic power together.

"The sky and the earth are boundless, and the universe borrows the law!" Everyone shouted in unison.

A powerful light shot out from their hands and hit Pearl directly.

Pei'er's face changed slightly when she saw this, and she hurriedly fought back with all her might.

There was a loud bang, and the light collided with Pearl's magic, causing a huge explosion.

The smoke cleared and Pearl's figure disappeared.

"Did he escape?" Shen Meizhuang looked around vigilantly.

"I'm afraid it's not that simple. Pei'er must have some plan for coming here this time. We must strengthen our defenses to prevent the demon world from attacking again." Zhen Huan said worriedly.

Everyone knows that a bigger crisis is about to come.

Just when everyone in the Grand View Garden was worried about the appearance of Pei'er, Ye Lan'yi suddenly appeared.

She was dressed in green, with a graceful figure but a fierce look in her eyes, full of hatred and determination, which made people shudder.

"Yinzhen, today is the day you die!" Ye Lanyi's voice was icy cold, as if it came from the abyss of Hell.

Everyone was shocked. They didn't know why Ye Lan'yi suddenly appeared and hated Yinzhen so much.

Yinzhen frowned and said in a deep voice: "Ye Lanyi, what do you mean?"

Ye Lanyi sneered: "What do you mean? You killed Yun Li, this feud is irreconcilable!"

It turned out that Ye Lanyi recalled things from her previous life, thought of her past with Yunli, and Yunli's tragic death at the hands of Yinzhen. The hatred in her heart burned like a raging fire and could no longer be contained.

Seeing this, Zhen Huan hurriedly said, "Ye Lanyi, there must be a misunderstanding. I hope you can calm down."

Ye Lanyi glared at Zhen Huan: "Misunderstanding? Zhen Huan, don't make excuses for this evil man!"

After saying that, Ye Lan Yi took out a long sword in her hand. The sword body was shining with a faint blue light, and it was obviously not an ordinary object.

She flashed and stabbed towards Yinzhen.

Yinzhen dodged sideways and said loudly: "Ye Lanyi, don't be impulsive, listen to my explanation!"

Ye Lanyi was not willing to listen, and her sword moves became more and more fierce and deadly.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yan Lili waved her jade flute and a ray of light shot towards Ye Lanyi, trying to stop her.

Ye Lan Yi snorted coldly, swung the sword back, and dispersed the light.

Shen Meizhuang also hurriedly cast magic to try to restrain Ye Lanyi.

However, Ye Lan Yi was filled with hatred at the moment, and her skills were extraordinary, so everyone's attempts to stop her had no effect on her at all.

Just when Yinzhen was exhausted from dealing with the situation, Ye Lanyi seized the opportunity and stabbed Yinzhen in the chest with a sword.

At the critical moment, Zhen Huan stepped forward and stood in front of Yinzhen.

"Hanhuan!" Yinzhen exclaimed.

Ye Lanyi's sword stopped an inch away from Zhen Huan's chest, and a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes.

"Zhen Huan, why are you protecting this evil man?" Ye Lan Yi asked angrily.

Zhen Huan looked pale, but said firmly: "Ye Lanyi, I know you are in pain, but there must be something hidden in this matter. If you kill the master, the truth will never be revealed."

Ye Lanyi trembled slightly and slowly put down the sword in her hand.

"Okay, I'll believe you for now. But Yinzhen, you'd better give me a satisfactory explanation." Ye Lanyi said gritting her teeth.

At this time, the atmosphere in the Grand View Garden was extremely tense.

Yinzhen took a deep breath and said slowly: "Yunli's death was not my intention. The situation was complicated at the time, and various forces were secretly competing. Yunli was unfortunately involved and framed. Although I tried my best to save him, I failed to save his life."

Ye Lanyi snorted coldly: "Do you think I will believe what you said?"

Zhen Huan continued, "Ye Lanyi, what the Lord said may be true. The palace struggles in recent years have been turbulent and complicated, and there are countless conspiracies and intrigues."

Ye Lanyi remained silent, but the hatred in her eyes did not dissipate.

At this moment, a dark shadow fell from the sky.

"Hahahaha, what a good show!" The black shadow laughed wildly.

When everyone looked closely, they found that it was the Demon King from the Demon World.

"Yin'er, why are you here?" Yinzhen asked vigilantly.

Yinzhen sneered and said, "Of course I came to see you cultivators killing each other. Now is a good time for my demon world to take advantage of the situation and move in."

After saying that, Yinzhen waved his hand, and a group of minions from the demon world swarmed out and surrounded everyone.

"Today, you will all become captives of my demon world!" Yinzhen said proudly.

Faced with the sudden attack from the demon world, everyone's heart sank.
