Hua Yifeng's gaze was indeed cold as usual. It was just that this gaze was even colder and sharper. Like giving a shield to her fragile feelings. All he knew was that for the umpteenth time, his feelings never returned.
Yeah, ... Never once was.
"Go away," Yi Hua said once more as she touched the red earrings that were in her ears.
Because of that the situation around them felt very awkward. Judging from that they only hoped that Hua Yifeng would not go berserk anymore. It can be dangerous, and certainly a waste of their time.
Wei Wuxie wanted to interrupt in order for the situation to get better. Because, even though this was only her guess._ If it was true that this Yi Hua was Li Wei, then Wei Wuxie believed that Li Wei's actions would always be the same. Li Wei always acted as if she was fine, and attached great importance to others.
It was not that Li Wei was well-intentioned, but that Li Wei wanted to 'be' well.
Li Wei felt her destructive self, hence she was the one repairing. Although Li Wei himself did not know where to fix it. That's why this whole thing feels ridiculous.
However, Ling Xiao pulled Wei Wuxie's arm. Stopping Wei Wuxie from saying anything. And, as usual Wei Wuxie listened to Ling Xiao.
"They do have to talk about this once in a while," Ling Xiao said as he patted Wei Wuxie on the shoulder.
Avoiding it will solve nothing.
"Then, we meet again later, Mr. Hua," continued Yi Hua who smiled faintly at Hua Yifeng.
I don't want to run anymore. I want to meet Hua Yifeng again.
The man still flinched in his place. This made Yi Hua run towards Hua Yifeng. Yi Hua's hand swiftly pulled the sword decoration Hua Yifeng looked from the halves of Hua Yifeng's clothes. Yi Hua pulled it until this 'Li Wei' sword ornament was released from the sword algae.
Yi Hua revealed that beautiful decoration that he managed to take from the sword algae. Showing that thing to Hua Yifeng and smiling sweetly. "I took this hanger as collateral. When we meet again, then I'll give this back to you."
Hua Yifeng only looked at Yi Hua. But his eyes began to calm. Yi Hua used to think that Hua Yifeng was difficult to understand. Her gaze was flat and cold, so no one knew what Hua Yifeng was thinking.
And it turned out that understanding Hua Yifeng was not that difficult.
Yi Hua walked a few steps towards Yue Yan and Huan Ran. However, the little astrologer turned his body back. Then, a small run headed towards Hua Yifeng.
Yi Hua's legs were a bit tiptoed and intended to stick her lips on Hua Yifeng's cheeks. The high distance they made the kiss could only land on Hua Yifeng's lower jaw. A thin kiss as light as when.
"I'm leaving" said Yi Hua who ran over without looking at Hua Yifeng's face again.
Yue Yan who was indeed created with a critic mouth, instantly let out his thoughts as Yi Hua approached again towards him. "You can spend even more time Yi Hua. Maybe until the situation gets worse."
"You better ask your snakes about what I tell you," Yi Hua said, reminding Yue Yan.
Yue Yan clucked and whispered to Yi Hua.
Apparently true!
BAMMMM!!!
A loud voice sounded behind them. It seemed like Hua Yifeng was doing what Yi Hua had done. This made Yi Hua sigh. He had no intention of replying to Yue Yan.
He even concentrated on listening. Of course listen to Xiao.
Yi Hua deliberately distanced Hua Yifeng for Xiao to appear. Yi Hua needed Xiao to guide him. He had only called the Circle of Roses once. That happened about ten years ago.
Throwing away any risk, he must have assurance that this plan works.
"Come not picked up. Home is not delivered," said Yi Hua carelessly.
Sure enough Xiao who had a short-hearted nature immediately commented.
"What do you think I am, HuaHua?" asked Xiao exasperatedly.
Yi Hua watched Ling Xiao who Huan Ran helped to rewrite the transfer magic.
A GRAKKK!
Yi Hua pressed into the crack of the open ground in front of him. If it was indeed where it was, and Hua Yifeng managed to open it from another path. Thus, the Rose Circle will head towards its owner through this path.
THE BAMMM!
Another explosive sound sounded a bit far away. Hua Yifeng seemed to have managed to open the exit. This makes the amount of afternoon sunlight coming down to their view. The situation around them was brighter, and SLAP!
When Yi Hua's hand received the Rose Circle, a foundation of strength was created. Displacement seal looks movable.
If indeed Bao Jiazhen was around them, then Yi Hua could lure him.
***
BLAM!
GRAK!
Yue Yan looked around him. After the strange light that glowed around them Yue Yan realized if they were still in the same place. Does that mean their move fails again?
"Yi Hua, are we failing again?" asked the exhausted Yue Yan.
Not for what, but more on the influence of his new power. Who would have thought if focusing his gaze would really make a pain. Yue Yan's head became heavy like one who was drained of a lot of blood. And, the fatigue had already made Yue Yan's gaze start to normal again.
Believe ... Yue Yan human. His strength was not strong enough to follow that great power.
Ling Xiao also looked a bit chaotic right now. There was a thin sweat on his forehead a sign that Ling Xiao was also using too much of his inner strength. He had already taken out a lot of talisman paper to revive the seal.
For the first time Ling Xiao looked normal like any other human.
But King Li Shen's eyes squinted sharply when he saw the object held by Yi Hua. It was a fragment of the Rose Circle, which somehow ... Fused with perfect.
Previously they only combined the Circle of Roses so that each fault was fused. However, in the hands of Yi Hua the Rose Circle was fused perfectly. Like it's never been destroyed before.
If remembered again this was the first time Yi Hua touched the broken Rose Circle that had been collected all over.
SRETT!
"Yue Yan, you remember about the mirror image that we wanted to seek to heal Liu Xingsheng," Yi Hua told Yue Yan.
Yue Yan nodded. They came to the Lower Kingdom to find a mirror of the shadow which he said could show the original form of the 'object' being reflected. Of course he remembered, because the mirror image was actually a fragment of the Circle of Roses.
It was a bit disappointing because Yue Yan thought the mirror would be even more interesting. However, who would have thought if the legendary object was actually a fragment from Li Wei's sword sheath. The Rose Circle is considered a mysterious object.
They're kind of fooled by the cruel history of this weapon.
"But, what does that have to do with finding the whereabouts of the puppet Prime Minister* that?" asked Yue Yan in an incomprehensible tone.
^^^*The puppet Minister's Prime Minister was the designation of Yue Yan to Liu Xingsheng. It was because during the trip, Liu Xingsheng was silent like a puppet. Although breathable.^^^
"We're not in the wrong place. Bao Jiazhen could not fiddle with the transfer magic, because as the Seer Ling had said, the demonic energy would not be able to touch the holy spell. The wrong place is not the place, but our eyes" said Yi Hua who directed the Circle of Roses before his face.
SRAT!
The conditions around them changed. They are still in the basement. But what makes the place different is the flow of water in front of them.
The water was black and looked deep. A few steps from the puddle of water looked like a tall building with a design like the palace of Xin Kingdom. There was a motive of the Xin Kingdom there, but this palace was not walled.
Only the poles are propping up the roof, so you can see what's there.
There was a black chair occupied by a human skull.
Is correct.
It was Bao Jiazhen's skull that they had seen inside the coffin earlier.
Ling Xiao nodded his head. "We previously entered into the illusion of Bao Jiazhen. Thanks to the mirror image, something reflected shows its original shape."
It is only fitting that the soil around them spontaneously divides when they first move. They have arrived at the right place. Then, Bao Jiazhen broke the ground to bring up a black stream of water for the Water Ghost to appear. Then, the Water Ghost illusion made them enter the game circle of Bao Jiazhen.
The only one unaffected was Hua Yifeng. That was why Hua Yifeng could head towards the room on the right and destroy it. They are not in a room like a labyrinth. They were in a wide place, but the illusionary membrane made it like they were separated by a room.
Yi Hua found out through Yue Yan's count. He deliberately asked Yue Yan to count the nearest room with his 'eyes. Then, Yue Yan's snakes were also scattered to inspect the room.
Then, Yi Hua told Hua Yifeng to stay away to keep Xiao active. Yi Hua could use Xiao to become his 'eye. There Yi Hua realized there was a difference in the number of rooms they saw.
Yue Yan said four nearby rooms. Silently Yi Hua had Yue Yan ask her snake about the number of rooms. And the snakes said different numbers. Yi Hua, with Xiao's help, also said that the number of rooms was different again from the number that Yue Yan and his snakes saw.
Look ... The illusions a person sees depend on how the person thinks. In fact, everyone's thoughts and beliefs are often different. That's what makes that number different.
Because they are trapped in their own illusions. They were stuck with the illusion they saw in their 'eyes. No matter how great Bao Jiazhen was, he could not cover up the weakness of this illusion.
Yue Yan who joined this plan did not even understand. All this time he had only been following Yi Hua's words. Until he knows nothing. He turned to his side to ask Huan Ran.
However, Yue Yan did not find Huan Ran.
"Your rotten illusion has been broken, Bones," said Hua Yifeng who suddenly appeared from behind a high rock around this Sea Kingdom. The man walked until he reached the edge of the black water.
Before long appeared the head with long and long hair. The number was not small, and made the others shocked in shock. It was the carcass of countless Water Ghosts. The carcass floated in the black water that was in front of them. Of course it was a bit of a surprise for all of them. Except for Yi Hua, who had seen the same thing, and of course Ling Xiao who had always known. Perhaps Ling Xiao was the calmest creature in the world.
Hua Yifeng was obviously not caught up in the illusion of Bao Jiazhen, and knew of their situation being surrounded by water ghosts. Therefore, Hua Yifeng did not want to leave Yi Hua. And the illusions of Water Ghosts can't be stopped.
There are only two ways, namely making the unconscious person trapped illusion, or .. killing the Water Ghost to ensure illusion. As Hua Yifeng did in the Wei Family Tomb*.
^^^*Hayo ... There are still those who remember nothing that happened in the Tomb of the Wei family. Yang Yi Hua as General Wei saw Hua Yifeng kill Liu Xingsheng. But it's just an illusion. In that section also briefly explained about Water Ghosts. You can read it again if you forget. But I explained again about the water ghost illusion here.^^^
"What Mr. Hua did was not destroy the walls of the room or find the basement exit. All Mister Hua did was kill the entire water ghost around them. So that the illusion is gone," said Yi Hua who actually did not use the power of the Rose Circle at all.
It was just a series of scenes that Yi Hua had made to make Bao Jiazhen unconscious if her illusion had been broken by Hua Yifeng. Unfortunately, Hua Yifeng still did not want to leave Yi Hua. Because anyone who is trapped in this illusion will not be aware of what is around him. It was dangerous if Hua Yifeng stayed away from Yi Hua.
Yi Hua stared at the dark palace across from them. There was deep water separating them, but it could still be seen the figure that was there. Now they can see if the skull sitting in the chair is not alone.
Behind him stood a figure in his all-black clothes. Her long, pitch-black hair made her appearance much darker. Her white and pale complexion reminded Yi Hua of Hua Yifeng.
Yi Hua began to realize that one of the characteristics of the Bao Clan was pale white jade-like skin.
Around that figure, several skeletons of large fish circled around him. As if guarding their 'Master. This figure was as he called it, the White Skull. Everything around him was bone. Even Yi Hua could see the skeletons of other aquatic animals that were suddenly like beasts.
The skeletal teeth clashed against each other. It can break anything it bites.
They reached the White Skull Kingdom, Bao Jiazhen.
"Welcome to the kingdom of the South Sea, Dear Guests" Bao Jiazhen said with a cold face.
The real face of Yi Hua was unfamiliar. However, Yi Hua was familiar with that cold expression. As in his dream he also saw this face. Although this figure appeared with a younger face in his dream at that time.
The figure no longer used his disguise face anymore.
Even so, his expression remained the same.
"The game of being the fucking Prime Minister is over, isn't it?" hua Yifeng asked with Li Wei's sword in her hand.
Yue Yan suddenly understood something. "You are that Prime Minister Huan," whispered Yue Yan who felt sorry for Liu Xingsheng.
King Li Shen looked at the man in front of them in disbelief. During this time he had Bao Jiazhen as his right hand in Kerjakan Li. Then, Hua Yifeng disguised herself as An. He feels so stupid now.
I don't know what else is hidden around him.
More than anything ...
Liu Xingsheng trusted Huan Ran far more than his own sister. Liu Xingsheng was afraid that Consort Qian would conduct another illegal experiment to cure him. Without knowing if the 'sick' that appears is Huan Ran. Liu Xingsheng fled with Huan Ran because he did not believe Consort Qian.
It was only fitting that the White Skull mark easily appeared on Liu Xingsheng's body. That was what made the White Skull able to draw Liu Xingsheng's consciousness in an endless illusion. So that Liu Xingsheng would be in a long dream. Until his body is left like a puppet that has no consciousness.
Yi Hua sighed before speaking. "The one controlling the walking corpse to mess up at the Feast of Gods is you, Prime Minister Huan. All that so you can poison Prime Minister Liu with corpse powder."
It was only so that Liu Xingsheng's soul was weakened and bound in an illusion.
Huan Ran, or well ... Bao Jiazhen did it gradually. It was even so delicate that it looked like a normal accident to Liu Xingsheng. Though it had been a long time since Huan Ran had placed his magic around Liu Xingsheng. Waiting for the target to continue to weaken little by little. Then, it drowned Liu Xingsheng's soul in the illusions and nightmares presented by Bao Jiazhen.
"Hua Yifeng, you should remember that you should not touch anything in the territory of other demons," said Huan Ran, or well we should get used to calling him Bao Jiazhen.
Hua Yifeng shrugged his shoulders lazily. "I've warned you not to involve Yi Hua in it."
"I may never be familiar with you." Bao Jiazhen ordered a dragon skull the size of a tree trunk to attack Hua Yifeng.
Arguing and fighting as usual.
Hua Yifeng slashed the bones of the aggressive moving dragon until it split in two. "I happen to have no intention of getting along with you."

Happy reading 😉
Don't forget to put your thumb in place. Give criticism and suggestions so that this story is better for the future.
Holaa ...
So, Bao Jiazhen is Huan Ran. Maybe some of your guesses are right. Yet was Bao Jiazhen also involved in Li Wei's rebirth? Or was this Li Wei (Yi Hua) accidentally involved in the matter of Bao Jiazhen and Liu Xingsheng as well as Consort Qian?
Actually this story is simple, which is to understand the existing clue. Every time there is a little leak that connects the facts with each other.
Due to its back and forth plot, the sequence of events in the novel by time is:
About fifteen years ago Li Wei, Hua Yifeng, Wei Wuxie first became acquainted with Ling Xiao when they were children. Then, Ling Xiao raised Hua Yifeng as a child. Li Wei who was friends with Wei Wuxie was also instantly familiar with Zhang Yuwen. Zhang Yuwen was an acquaintance of Wei Wuxie actually.
Then, five years later after that meeting, the groove led to their time in Cloud Training. There Li Wei met Hua Yifeng again, but she did not remember ever meeting him. Wei Wuxie remembered, but assumed that there was nothing important about their first meeting. So he did not tell Li Wei anything. In Cloud Training there is also its own part. Please re-read if you forget. In Cloud Training there was also an incident where Hua Yifeng obtained his spiritual sword, which would later be named Li Wei.
Continuing one year later, they graduated from Cloud Training. Li Wei was still friends with Zhang Yuwen and Wei Wuxie. Then, starting with Li Wei who was given a letter through an arrow. Li Wei was told to catch the chicken at the market because there was a letter there. You could say this was the beginning of a disaster.
There Hua Yifeng also became the Li Kingdom's High Office. Zhang Yuwen and Wei Wuxie. Then, there was a huge flood caused by Li Wei's brother Li Jun's mistake. Many casualties fell, and Li Wei forced to intervene in the issue of evacuation of victims. It was allowed with the royal side, but Li Wei departed with Hua Yifeng.
Continues to appear strange diseases ... That is, stone disease. Every time a wound appeared on a human's skin, his blood would turn to stone.
In the time adjacent to Li Chen's death, Li Wei's second brother made another matter. Due to the death of Li Chen, who incidentally was a traitor to the kingdom and a spy for the Xin Kingdom, Li Wei was accused of being an assassin. The Xin Kingdom attacked while the Li Kingdom was in turmoil.
That's where the great tragedy of the Li Kingdom is. Major disasters 1, 2, and 3 occurred, namely the Black Princess Li Wei, the Devils of Destruction Hua Yifeng, and the Bloody Curtain Zhang Yuwen. Remember the five famous disasters discussed in this novel?
The interval of a few months was the time Hua Yifeng made the Human Shell. Although it didn't work. Later, it was studied by Consort Qian. So that he managed to revive Liu Xingsheng. It was the 4th great disaster, namely the White Skull of Bao Jiazhen. The story of the actual Feast of the Gods discusses the tragedy that befell Bao Jiazhen.
Five years later, the soldier who had helped Li Wei in Cloud Training, Shen Qibo. It only briefly appears, so it may not remember. But there was an incident where Li Wei fell in the basement of the Li Kingdom for the first time. There Li Wei met Shen Qibo.
So the point is about Shen Qibo. Long ago when Li Wei was still in Cloud Training, Shen Qibo was still a night warrior of the Li Kingdom. Then, five years later Shen Qibo rebelled. This is said ... In fact, you know, if you really read this story.
He said Shen Qibo killed in one night in one of the villages in the Valley of Dust. That was, the village where Yue Yan lived. That's where the 5th tragedy is ... Blind Priest Shen Qibo.
Then, the main setting in this story is the future ... Five years after the events of Shen Qibo, Yi Hua died in a dungeon after uttering his prophecy. There was reborn Yi Hua who was actually Li Wei.
Until it gets to its homecoming now ....
So, that's the time jump in this story. I hope not confused anymore. The five major disasters are a sequence of events that are actually connected to the main enemy in this story.
Is there a shadow?
I can't say. But readers of my stories sometimes have imaginations that align with this author gaje. They usually have their own shadow. Sometimes they get stuck with a puzzle.
Hope your day gets confused.
Let's meet in the next chapter.
Adios~
