Chapter 177 Those Forgotten Pasts
Chapter 177 Those Forgotten Pasts
The same situation occurred again: the black mist passed through the magic attack once more, hit Erlang Shen, dispersed, then reformed and rushed towards Yan Ning, who was right next to him.
Without hesitation, Lord Luo Hua shoved Yan Ning hard, sending him and the jade willow in his arms flying, taking the blow of the black mist for Yan Ning.
The exact same thing happened again. After the black mist re-condensed, it flew towards Yan Ning once more, with an aura of not giving up until it achieved its goal.
Yu Liu has now regained consciousness. She is being held in Yan Ning's arms, and her hands are not bound. Although she knows that the spells she casts now will not be effective against this black mist, she still can't help but want to try.
Two white orbs of light condensed in her hands. After the orbs left her hands, they collided with the black mist again. This time, however, the collision was not the same as before.
The white light collided with the black mist, and the black mist vanished instantly upon contact with the white light, with an immediate effect.
However, the white light was too small, and most of the black mist disappeared. The remaining part accelerated again and crashed straight into Yan Ning.
Yu Liu no longer had time to launch another attack. Yan Ning glanced back, knowing there was no escape, and looked down at Yu Liu deeply. Following the example of the Fallen Flower God, she decisively threw Yu Liu away.
"Yan Ning—"
Yu Liu instinctively tried to grab him, but her hand brushed past him, and she flew out, only to be caught by Luo Hua Shenjun.
"puff--"
"what--"
The black mist collided with Yan Ning, but instead of dispersing as before, it all entered Yan Ning's body. Yan Ning felt something rising in her throat, and she opened her mouth and spat out a large pool of blood, staining the sky in front of her red.
Immediately afterwards, a deep, bone-chilling pain spread, and my body began to tremble uncontrollably.
With a "thud," unable to hold on any longer, Yan Ning fell from the sky and crashed directly to the ground.
Ying Qing appeared beside Yan Ning in an instant, reaching out to touch Yan Ning's wrist: "A Ning, how are you?"
Yan Ning knelt on the ground, her head hanging limply, and showed no reaction to his words.
"Yan Ning?"
Yu Liu also rode her white cloud down in front of Yan Ning, cautiously calling out to him, her voice already choked with emotion.
"What did you do to him?!" Erlang Shen glanced at them, then turned his gaze to Hades, who was watching the show with great interest. He had already pointed his spear at Hades, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.
"Heh, you ask me what I did?" Hades was very satisfied with his success on the first try: "I didn't do anything, I just turned him into a puppet of our underworld. The mist I just released was just a small magic spell. It was quite powerful, but it could only be used on people whose bodies and souls were extremely mismatched, to control their souls and put them under my control."
Hades explained triumphantly to Erlang Shen, admiring his face which turned pale in an instant.
No wonder it didn't work no matter how we tried to stop it. The reason is that Erlang Shen, Ying Qing, and Luo Hua all have their own bodies and souls, making them the most compatible. Yan Ning, on the other hand, is in a special situation and can only possess Dongfang Qingyuan's body, which perfectly meets Hades's conditions.
Hades was truly smug. He had guessed everything about Yan Ning. Hades didn't know whether Yan Ning's soul and body were actually compatible. He had just been gambling.
"A-Ning?!!"
The divine power circulated through Yan Ning's body, finding nothing amiss. Ying Qing released Yan Ning's wrist, attempting to awaken him.
Yan Ning lowered his head, his expression contorted in rage, veins bulging all over his body, and as his meridians continued to swell, blood began to seep from his skin.
"So beautiful." Watching Yan Ning gradually turn into a bloody mess, Hades chuckled foolishly, his disdainful gaze falling on Erlang Shen and Ying Qing, who were hesitant to act, before he burst into laughter: "My dear little servant, come here, come and protect your master."
"Uh-"
Yan Ning let out a painful roar, and her controlled body slowly began to stand up, moving slowly toward Hades.
"Yan Ning..."
Yu Liu clutched Yan Ning's sleeve, her heart trembling. So much blood—even if Yan Ning were a god, she would still die…
"Come here, protect your master as he leaves~ Hehehehe~"
Hades had given up on defense, but neither Erlang Shen nor Ying Qing dared to make a move at this moment. Yan Ning's life was now in Hades' hands, so they couldn't... they couldn't act rashly!
"Yan Ning... don't go over there... don't..." Tears slowly streamed down her cheeks, and Yu Liu's hands clenched even tighter.
However, Yan Ning's rationality was gradually fading. He didn't even turn around to look at Yu Liu. His eyes were fixed on Hades, and his feet did not stop.
A powerful force snatched the hem of her garment from Yu Liu's hand. Yu Liu stared blankly at her empty palm, then raised her head, glaring angrily at the culprit through gritted teeth. Her whole body trembled uncontrollably, and she slowly forced out a few words: "Hades! Let go of Yan Ning!!!"
Hades was even happier by Yu Liu's innocent words. He laughed a few more times before looking at Yu Liu with contempt: "Let go? Why should I listen to you? I'm counting on him to escape from here! Look how useful he is! I've got him under control, and none of you dare attack me anymore!"
"You!" Yu Liu was furious, pointing her finger at Hades, her breathing becoming rapid.
No, we can't panic! We must stay calm! We must save Yan Ning!
Yu Liu looked at Hades with hatred in her eyes, forcing herself to calm down.
"Little Willow, your attack can make his black mist disappear..." Luo Hua Divine Lord, who had moved behind Yu Liu at some point, reminded her in a low voice. He had seen clearly the attack that Yu Liu had just launched, even though others had not noticed it.
Yes! Yu Liu gasped for breath, suddenly recalling the scene where the white light she had emitted collided with the black mist, causing the black mist to disappear upon contact.
The remaining black mist entered Yan Ning's body. Once it disappears, Yan Ning will definitely recover!
Yu Liu calmed herself down and began to mobilize the energy within her body. A powerful will condensed into a small white ball in her hand. She continuously drew upon every bit of will power within her body, not letting a single drop go to waste, and poured it all into the white ball at her fingertips.
Erlang Shen and Ying Qing were drawn to her movements and spontaneously stood beside her to protect her.
Hades naturally noticed Yu Liu's actions. He hadn't taken Yu Liu seriously at first, but then he remembered that Yu Liu had shattered the three divine sparks in his hands before, and he became wary again. Relying on Yan Ning, Erlang Shen and Ying Qing dared not make any moves and were about to leave with Yan Ning.
"...I've already told you, let go of Yan Ning!!!"
