The old voice suddenly appeared, seemingly calm and unruffled, but because it was so ghostly, like thunder on the ground, it really scared Ning Zhongzi.
She didn't believe what the old man said, but she felt it was too scary. She subconsciously came to the other side of Lu Ya and whispered to Lu Ya.
"Brother, someone is coming."
Lu Ya was still frowning, thinking about his wife's illusion, when he was suddenly reminded by Ning Zhongzi, and then he realized that someone was coming.
He admitted that he was too absorbed in things to avoid being careless.
But the old man's movements are a bit coquettish.
This is a kind of subtle body method that is always on guard against a certain natural enemy and only comes out after being in a state of extreme caution for a long time.
But if you look closely, you will see that this old man is so powerful that he has suppressed his aura to an almost perfect state. Even Lu Ya can't see through his cultivation level.
Why does such a strong man walk so cautiously?
Lu Ya suddenly became interested and turned to look at the old man.
This old man is wearing a reed hat. The edge of the hat is a bit torn. He wears a very old wooden sword on his waist. He is not very tall, but his figure is straight, giving people a sense of vicissitudes of life that has been weathered but indomitable.
All evidence shows that this person is very old, but in fact, based on Lu Ya's intuition, this person's true age may not be very old.
Lu Ya had no evidence, just a very strange intuition, as if he knew this person very well.
Really strange.
In addition, there was a rag doll following behind the old man, hiding behind the old man's legs, grabbing the old man's rags, and looking at Lu Ya warily and timidly.
He looks about five or six years old, with a chubby body and cute facial features, but because he is designed to look too human, he looks particularly scary.
This is the uncanny valley theory.
But in the eyes of the doll girl, Lu Ya seems to be the scarier one.
The chubby little hands grasped the old man's trouser legs tightly, pinching the old man's calf meat until it was bruised.
The old man in the bamboo hat sighed, and his right hand that held the wooden sword relaxed.
This was the first time that the old man noticed that the puppet girl was so frightened. Even in front of Liu Xuanye, the girl had never behaved like this before.
Maybe this time... is not the opportunity to take action.
Lu Ya also sensed the old man's sudden relaxation of fighting spirit and asked casually:
"Who are you? A staff member of the scenic area?"
The old man bowed slightly and his tone was calm and polite.
"I am the ninth disciple of the academy, Emperor Li."
"The ninth disciple?"
Lu Ya was stunned. Is he just the ninth disciple who is so strong?
He remembered that Red Pig Fairy was the eighth disciple of the academy. Although he was very strong, he was far away from this old man and was not at the same level as a player.
Judging from this ghost body technique with weak spiritual power, this old man's strength has gone beyond pure strength...
"Are you sure you are a disciple, not a teacher?"
Lu Ya asked curiously.
The old man smiled, his voice dry and low.
"It's a disciple."
Lu Ya suddenly had an unreliable guess.
"Have I seen you somewhere? Take off your hat and show me."
The old man was silent.
Although Lu Ya couldn't feel the fluctuations in his spiritual pressure, there was no doubt that the old man was having a fierce psychological struggle at this moment.
This is not cowardice.
But it is the nervousness of a truly strong man when facing a heavenly monster.
Nervous, proving that he is strong enough.
finally.
The old man slowly took off his bamboo hat, revealing an old face with chapped skin and numerous gorges.
A pair of deep, bright eyes that are extremely cold, but also have a certain kind of heat.
Lu Ya breathed a sigh of relief.
He once thought he had met his true form or clone before!
Because this kind of footwork and aura is too advanced and familiar.
Fortunately, when he opened his hat, he saw that this old man had an ordinary appearance when he was young. He was far away from his handsome image, and there was no way he could be his original self or his clone.
"It seems to be an illusion."
Lu Ya said.
The old man also breathed a sigh of relief and put on his hat again.
Lu Ya paced, walked around to the old man's side, and suddenly stretched out his hand to grab the doll girl's chubby little face.
With this pinch, the puppet suddenly revealed its majesty and almost went berserk. In the end, it was frightened into a cute state by Lu Ya's big hand.
It can be seen that even a lifeless puppet does not want to die.
"This doll is so cute. It reminds me of my unborn daughter. How about...hey, what is she afraid of?"
Lu Ya bent over and asked harmlessly.
The old man said:
"She's afraid of you."
Lu Ya let go of his hand, straightened up, and walked back to the old man.
"You should be the one who is afraid of me, not the innocent girl."
The old man raised his head and looked at Liu Xuanye's position. He no longer remembered that he had ever been afraid.
"This is a puppet designed to cope with Liu Xuanye's illusion. It can keep me awake at any time."
Lu Ya took a closer look and saw that this was really what happened.
The puppet girl is equivalent to the old man's mechanical assistant. This is the dual soul processor. No matter how powerful Liu Xuanye's illusion is, it can only interfere with the old man's soul and cannot have any effect on the puppet.
The only thing Lu Ya didn't understand was that this old man was much stronger than Liu Xuanye, so why was he so wary of her?
Or is it that the old man saw another side of Liu Xuanye that no one knew about, but he didn't see it because he sealed the illusion?
"Is it really okay to tell me this kind of thing?"
Lu Ya didn't care and asked curiously.
The old man said:
"To a certain extent, we are closer to being comrades-in-arms, and Liu Xuanye is the enemy. It's just that you were deceived by beauty. I'm confused. The appearance of the immortal is the least important thing, but it alone deceives the most.
You are strong."
The strongest?
There is only one word difference between the strongest and the very strong, but it can reveal the speaker's vision.
You can say that anyone is strong, but to say that a person is the strongest, one condition must be met——
You have fought against every possible strong player in the world.
You've fought everyone.
you are still alive.
The meaning is obvious.
Lu Ya smiled and said:
"You are really immodest."
The old man touched the doll's head.
"I just made a random guess based on the puppet's reaction."
Lu Ya asked again:
"So, are you better than the teachers in the academy?"
"The teacher's power is beyond my reach."
"I understand."
Specifically, it means that the power is hard to match, but everyone's skills in using power are different. For example, Lu Ya, who has understood the lowest laws of heaven, only needs a little bit of the spiritual power of the Immortal Lord to overcome all dissatisfaction in the immortal world.
This is the first top-notch person Lu Ya has encountered since time travel. He looks ordinary, but his words and deeds are impeccable.
Lu Ya imagined that if one day he met someone stronger than himself, his behavior would be the same as this old man.
What an exciting scene that was!
What a pity.
"The academy asked you to find me...do you want to seek peace?"
Lu Ya asked casually.
The old man said:
"Like you, I'm just here to be an audience. No matter how much blood is stained on Madam's hands, your children are still innocent. Letting the born children see their parents is the most basic kindness of human beings, but if
If you insist on associating with the witch, we will eventually take action."
Lu Ya asked:
"Are you sure you can beat me?"
The old man stood on the edge of the cliff, and there seemed to be a hint of desolation in his firm figure.
"Fight ten thousand times...if I'm lucky, I can win once."
"interesting."
Lu Ya really felt that this was possible. After all, after fighting ten thousand times, a person would get tired of winning and become numb to winning. In order to taste the taste of failure, or just a simple rebellious mentality, it is understandable that he would give up and lose once.
Just like online voting, no matter how outrageous the options are, people will vote for them.
For example, who is more beautiful, Tang Yan or Luo Yufeng?
Any reasonable person will think that Tang Yan is beautiful, but as long as there are enough voters, someone will choose Luo Yufeng.
Thinking like this, Lu Ya said:
"It's a pity that I don't have time to accompany you ten thousand times, just once. You go back and prepare more. I remind you: uniting eggs in the world to deal with stones is the wrong direction."
The old man smiled and said nothing. Together with the doll girl, his figure sank and disappeared, as if submerged into the sea of chaos.
Lu Ya clicked his lips, obviously he met a strong person, but the whole process was full of talk, which was inevitably a bit boring.
"It's a pity. This old man originally wanted to take action, but when he saw that the doll was afraid of me, he stopped."
Ning Zhongzi was silent the whole time, too nervous to speak.
Lu Ya said again:
"There is also something wrong with this old man's physique..."
At this moment, the curtain of the space was suddenly opened, and the scary big head of the doll girl suddenly poked out and appeared in front of Ning Zhongzi.
Although Ning Zhongzi liked children, the sudden appearance of a baby face so close to her made her mind buzz and her face turned pale.
The puppet girl seemed to have thought of something, so she turned around and asked:
"Sister, what's your name?"
This was the first time that Ning Zhongzi was called sister.
"I?"
"Well, you."
"Ning Zhongzi."
"Your new name sounds pretty nice."
"Um?"
Ning Zhongzi was stunned for a moment. Before he could react, the girl disappeared again.
After thinking about it for a long time, Ning Zhongzi thought about it very carefully, but he couldn't figure it out.
"What does she mean?"
Since Lu Ya had already discussed the senior sister issue with Liu Xuanye, although he was a little surprised, he was not particularly shocked.
"Maybe I've met senior sister before."
"Why don't I have any impression?"
Suddenly, Ning Zhongzi's face froze.
"You mean...Xuan Ye may have blocked my memory?"
Lu Ya couldn't deny it and suddenly asked:
"Can I see Senior Sister's body?"
"..."
Ning Zhongzi suppressed her blush. She understood what Lu Ya meant. The senior brother was just not good at words. She said with a serious face:
"If necessary, senior brother, you can watch it if you want."
"Um……"
Lu Ya nodded seriously.
The corners of his eyes gathered together, and he took a close look at the senior sister's body for a second.
In Lu Ya's view, just as Liu Xuanye said, the senior sister's immortal platform is not fully developed, and her body shape and temperament are not as elegant as a pure immortal, and she is not like the fireworks of the world.
Generally, the hormone levels of immortals are very low due to the Qi Sea in Sendai, which causes most immortals to have poor sexual health.
But the senior sister's hormones are obviously on the high side, and she is closer to a mortal than an immortal. To be precise, she is closer to a pure mortal who cannot practice cultivation.
Lu Ya closed his eyes. Although he only took a glance, he looked too deeply. Considering his status as a senior sister, he felt a little guilty.
Ning Zhongzi was a little surprised.
"Senior brother, are you ready so soon?"
"I……"
Lu Ya's forehead was full of black lines and he quickly changed the topic:
"Actually, Xuan Ye told me about your physique. How should I put it? It's a native human physique."
"Native human?"
This was the first time Ning Zhongzi heard this word.
"They are the ancestors of immortals."
"how come……"
Lu Ya’s analysis:
"There are probably three possibilities. Either you are born to return to your ancestors, or your age is older than the Three Realms, or..."
Lu Ya suddenly fell silent, not knowing what to say.
Ning Zhongzi became nervous.
"Either what?"
Lu Ya thought for a while and realized that he had already seen the whole body of his senior sister, both inside and outside. If he tried to hide it any more, it would be too much.
"The third possibility...you are a time traveler."
"Traveler?"
"They are people from other universes. There may be the most primitive human beings living there. These humans have not yet evolved spiritual roots or immortal platforms and cannot practice cultivation. They are then summoned to the Three Realms universe by some high-level immortal magic."
These days, Ning neutrons have long been popularized in the existence of billions of universes in the sea of chaos. Lu Ya's explanation is relatively easy to understand.
She was shocked:
"Can anyone really do this?"
Indeed, Lu Ya didn't think anyone else in the Sea of Chaos could do this except himself.
If there is, it must be an existence outside of chaos, such as the main god, the author or something...
"If it were me, I should be able to do it. Xuan Ye definitely doesn't have this ability."
Ning Zhongzi breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Ya said again:
"If senior sister really had her memory wiped away, it probably wasn't Xuan Ye's fault. Her illusion skills haven't reached the full level yet, so she can't completely hide it from me."
Ning Zhongzi stood on the edge of the cliff with his hands behind his hands, his beautiful face shrouded in mist serious and firm.
"I also believe Xuan Ye, she must be just a clone."
Lu Ya thought for a while, it should be a higher level form than the body, but he couldn't explain these things to his senior sister.
"What would you do if one day you find out that Xuan Ye's true self is a heinous demon?"
Ning Zhongzi said:
"I don't know...but in the three thousand years that Xuan Ye has been in the Zhuquan Sect, he has never killed anyone who shouldn't be killed."
"That's enough."
After confirming the determination of his senior sister, Lu Ya breathed a sigh of relief and stood on the edge of the cliff, watching the Xingluan battle in front of him.
He suddenly asked:
"Aren't you worried about yourself at all?"
Ning Zhongzi sighed:
"My talent is mediocre and my cultivation is low. Meeting Xuan Ye and my senior brother is the greatest luck in my life."
"Don't underestimate yourself, senior sister. The old man just now has the same native physique as you, but he is terrifyingly strong. Because of the interference of the doll girl, even I couldn't see his true strength."
Lu Ya tried to comfort him.
"It's impossible for him to reach this level based on his physical talent alone. I guess he has a golden finger or a system to assist him... Maybe one day, senior sister will also encounter her own system."
Ning Zhongzi was at a loss for words.
"Goldfinger? System?"
Lu Ya didn't know how to explain it.
"Forget it, it's just a guess."
Ning Zhongzi asked:
"What about senior brother? Senior brother said that he is a person from outside the world, and his hometown is far away. Could it be that he is also a time traveler?"
Lu Ya smiled and said:
"Too many things have happened recently, and I can't figure it out. As a time traveler, maybe I am too strong, so I have to consider other possibilities."
Seeing that Ning Zhongzi was obviously a little flustered, Lu Ya said again:
"Sister, don't worry, no matter who I am, who you are, or who Xuan Ye is, after all the chaos, we will always be together, I promise."
"Um."
Ning Zhongzi nodded.
Lu Ya casually hugged his senior sister's shoulders and kissed her forehead.
At the same time, in Lu Ya's mind, a black thread was entangled by Lu Ya's neurons, and was dragged step by step into the abyss of the sea of consciousness.
