Chapter 148 Dark Elf 17
Qingyu smiled faintly, turning her beautiful profile slightly to the side. "System, what are you afraid of?"
The system paused for a moment, then said hesitantly, "I'm afraid you'll go down the same old path!"
"Before?" Qingyu raised an eyebrow, a hint of allure in her eyes. "What was I like before?"
"As long as you don't touch this, I'll tell you... just a little bit!" the system said hesitantly.
Qingyu bit her lip, a malicious smile appearing on her usually beautiful face. "Even if you don't tell me, I'm still going to touch it!"
The next second, she grabbed the stone, and in an instant, a burst of fire erupted.
In the firelight, Qingyu saw some blurry images flash by quickly.
It was like something she had experienced before, but the image flashed by in an instant, and before she could see it clearly, she felt an intense pain in her mind.
"What is this?" Qingyu asked the system, her doubts growing.
The system, however, wore a bitter expression and complained, "You shouldn't have touched it! Now you're in big trouble!"
"What trouble?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding space suddenly began to distort and deform, and the air around him seemed to be suppressed.
Qingyu felt as if she was being drawn into an unknown vortex, the powerful attraction making her unable to move. She tried to break free, but found that her body was out of her control.
Does it really mean I have to remember?
The thought flashed through her mind, and in the blink of an eye, the firelight in front of her disappeared, and she found herself in an unfamiliar, ancient courtyard.
The surrounding architecture is ancient and mysterious, and a faint floral fragrance permeates the air.
Everything seemed peaceful and serene, and very familiar to Qingyu.
"Where are we?" Qingyu asked the system, and before the system could answer, she asked again, "Do you recognize that rock? What is it?"
The system replied listlessly and helplessly, "Because you touched that stone, we were transported to an unknown space. It may hold secrets from your past, but it is also full of dangers."
Subconsciously, Qingyu thought of something else: the people from before had reappeared in this world...
I don't know if they're friend or foe!
Qingyu's eyes flickered. She stroked the gauze scarf a few times, then stood up with a determined look in her eyes: "No matter what, I must find out about my past."
After saying that, she walked deeper into the courtyard.
But unexpectedly, someone suddenly appeared at the door—
It's Mitsuba! Exactly the same Mitsuba!
Qingyu was startled. Before she could speak, Sanye walked in and sighed, "Are you still going to look for him? He's not worth it. He betrayed you."
Qingyu's eyes trembled. Before she could speak, she saw another version of herself leaning against the door frame, looking dejected. "I know, give me some time."
"I will always be with you, Qingyu." Sanye stepped forward with deep affection, her eyes shining brightly, as if concealing countless emotions.
Qingyu raised her eyes slightly, looking at the scene before her, her red lips pressed tightly together, her heart filled with doubt.
She didn't know who this "he" Mitsuha was talking about was, nor did she know what had happened.
Qingyu took a deep breath and tentatively asked Sanye in front of her, "Who exactly are you? What's going on here?"
Unexpectedly, Mitsuha turned to look at her and smiled slightly, "We are all part of your memories, or rather, a past sealed here."
Qingyu was speechless. She wanted to ask something more, but found that the scenery around her began to distort. She suddenly felt a splitting headache, and countless memories were running wild in her mind before disappearing.
Suddenly, a bright light flashed, and in a daze, she saw a blurry figure. The person stood with his hands behind his back, looking desolate, yet somehow familiar.
"Is it him?" Qingyu murmured to herself.
Mitsuha sneered, "That's right, it's him. He once brought you endless pain."
As soon as she finished speaking, Qingyu bit her red lips tightly, her watery eyes filled with determination. She gritted her teeth and rushed towards that figure.
She wants to uncover the mystery herself!
However, as she approached, the figure gradually disappeared, and when she reached out, she could only grasp a gust of wind.
The person left behind only one sentence that echoed in the air: "I'm sorry..."
The three words, brimming with pain, seem to convey a sense of deep despair.
Qingyu was stunned, staring at her hands, unable to come to her senses for a long time.
Once the surrounding environment returned to normal, Qingyu suddenly realized that she seemed to be one step closer to the truth, but she felt even more confused.
"System, what exactly is this stone?"
The system doesn't know either, and it's even cursing and swearing now. If it finds out who put the stone there, it will definitely kill them!
First a left hook, then a right hook, and then a flying kick!
The system, growing increasingly angry, replied irritably, "I don't know! It must have been those people who put it there! Maybe it was Misu!"
Qingyu gripped the stone tightly, still able to feel the familiar power within it. She was becoming increasingly certain that perhaps her past self, the dark elements, were also her "friends."
"Qingyu! What's wrong?"
Anmei and Sanye, who arrived late, saw Jiaren standing not far away, looking forlorn. Their hearts tightened, and they quickly ran over.
Upon seeing the stone in Qingyu's hand, Sanye's eyes lit up. He hesitated, but when he met the beauty's clear and bright eyes, he finally revealed the truth, "This is fire element, and... I put it in."
His voice was hoarse, with a hint of nervousness, as he feared that Qingyu would think he was cunning and distance herself from him if she found out.
"You put it there?" Qingyu raised an eyebrow and looked over indifferently. Sanye's eyes did not have the same emotions as the "Sanye" in the previous scene, which meant that the current Sanye was not the same as the one in the previous scene.
That thing...
"Did the Lord of Darkness order you to release it?"
This was the first time Qingyu had mentioned the Lord of Darkness, and it was in front of these two people, which was tantamount to laying his cards on the table.
She had been watching their expressions closely and hadn't missed a single moment of unease in Anmei's eyes.
Mitsuha, on the other hand, remained silent.
Silence signifies acquiescence.
Qingyu didn't pursue the matter further, because ultimately, the so-called Lord of Darkness was dealing with Xuanyuan Wu, not him.
Thinking of this, she put away the stone and casually asked, "Are you the only ones who came out? Where is Xuanyuan Wu?"
"You care about him a lot?" Anmei pursed his lips tightly, his eyes cold, as if he would explode if Qingyu admitted it the next second.
He was indeed about to explode; he couldn't bear to see Qingyu caring about other people.
However, Qingyu smiled knowingly, her beautiful face blooming like a flower, but the words that came out of her red lips startled Anmei, "What are you talking about? Didn't you want to mess with Xuanyuan Wu? I was just curious whether he was dead or not?"
A smile played at the corners of his dark eyes; he knew his beauty would guess—
He is the Lord of Darkness.
She's truly intelligent; she's becoming more and more captivating.
"Yes, it's my business." He chuckled softly, his voice filled with magnetism and joy, revealing just how happy he was.
Mitsuha, standing to the side, was confused but vaguely sensed that the situation was unfavorable to him. He was about to speak when his pupils dilated and his face suddenly darkened.
Dark Enchantress transformed into another form.
That is……
"Lord of Darkness!"
--------------
As the thick fog gradually dissipated, Xuan Yuanwu immediately discovered that Ling An and Wei Duo were missing, and the dark figure had also vanished without a trace.
"Where are they?!" Michael exclaimed in alarm, calling out several times in his anxiety.
Will stopped him, saying, "We don't know the situation right now, so we can't shout."
Xuanyuan Wu didn't speak; he was more concerned about the other two.
What about Dark Enchantress and that city lord?
Did they leave together?
These questions lingered in Xuan Yuanwu's mind, making him increasingly suspicious that it was all a conspiracy.
