Looking at the pleading in Bai Lingmiao's eyes, Li Huowang struggled, but in the end, he tremblingly let go of his hand.
Standing there, Li Huowang watched Bai Lingmiao tightly grip the purple tassel sword again, and saw the pain in her eyes gradually replaced by indifference and relief.
The previous Bai Lingmiao had returned once again.
At this moment, Li Huowang suddenly understood that the possession of evil energy was never a big problem, it never was. The real trouble was always the unchangeable reality, that he had killed Bai Lingmiao's entire family.
"Hehe." Bai Lingmiao laughed again, this time her laughter was filled with ease.
She bent down and dipped the lead comb into the vinegar bowl, continuing to comb her hair in front of the bronze mirror, appearing to be in a good mood.
Watching her figure, Li Huowang finally gave up, and with a slight twitch of his mouth, he walked up behind Bai Lingmiao and gently embraced her.
"Don't worry, no matter how you change, you will always be my Miao Miao."
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Lingmiao pushed Li Huowang away with all her strength, glaring at him with anger.
"You don't despise me? I despise you! Do you remember what I said to you before? Do you really like Bai Lingmiao as a person, or do you like a concubine who obeys you?"
After speaking, Bai Lingmiao stood up and threw the lead comb on the ground, angrily walking towards the door.
"Where are you going?"
"Why do you care where I'm going? I'm marrying another man now! Taking care of a husband and raising children! Do you still want to continue entangling with a madman like you?"
As Bai Lingmiao was about to leave, a fragrance wafted over, and a soft body leaned against Li Huowang's back. It was Twin Soul.
"Don't worry, she won't..."
Li Huowang grabbed the hand behind him and gently kissed the sharp black nails, saying with deep frustration, "Let's go, it's better to leave. Wait for me in Niu Xin Village, I'll come find you after I solve my troubles."
After rubbing Li Huowang's neck with the soft fur on her face, Twin Soul slowly withdrew and when Li Huowang turned around again, he was alone in the room.
Li Huowang was stunned for a moment, then rushed outside and shouted to the lobby below, "Waiter! Bring me a jar of strong liquor!"
Soon, the wine was brought to the room. Without saying a word, Li Huowang picked it up and drank it all in one gulp.
After several rounds of drinking, Li Huowang's perception had become extremely sensitive. He didn't know when he had passed out.
The only thing he knew was that when he woke up again, he heard the sound of a rooster crowing outside.
Li Huowang held his pounding head and stood up unsteadily. As he walked towards the window, he stumbled and fell to the ground.
Li Huowang struggled to stand firm, and at that moment, he saw some black tattoos appearing on the back of his hand.
Shaking his head vigorously, Li Huowang finally saw clearly that they were not tattoos, but Li Sui's wriggling tentacles.
"I don't have much time left." If he couldn't find a way to dispel the illusion from Beifeng before Li Sui completely took over his body, he would return to that extremely bewildered state.
Li Huowang would rather die than go back to that state, that feeling of being trapped between two worlds was too uncomfortable and suffocating.
"Creak" The sound of the window being pushed open, Li Huowang glared at the sun shining on his face.
Li Huowang clenched his teeth and clenched his fist towards the sun. "You want to torment me, don't you! I want to try defying fate! Come on!! Let's see who is crazier, you or me!"
Li Huowang flipped over and jumped out of the window, heading straight for the prison.
By the time it was bright, Li Huowang had finished burying the coffin and arrived at the entrance of the Jiantiansi.
Looking at the six doors between the two stone lions in front of him, as well as the stone square inside, Li Huowang, who reeked of alcohol, showed his waist token to the guards at the gate and walked in directly.
Inside the Jiantiansi, it was empty and sparsely populated. A huge stone celestial sphere was placed in the center of the square.
Looking left and right, Li Huowang walked towards the low house to the south.
As soon as Li Huowang entered the room filled with the scent of ink, a man holding several scrolls hurriedly approached.
"Hey hey hey, who are you? This is the place where the historical records are compiled, outsiders are not allowed in."
When the man saw Li Huowang's waist token, he pointed to the opposite side and said, "Another wrong turn, your department is on the opposite side."
"Wrong turn?" Li Huowang quickly glanced around the room and his eyes fell on a row of characters hanging on the wall.
"The decree of the Celestial Observatory prohibits the private engraving of calendars. Those who violate the order will be banished along with their three generations."
Li Huowang arched his hand towards the man and turned to walk towards the deserted house opposite, where a huge metal mask on the wall immediately caught his attention.
There were two masks the size of a person, covered in green rust due to wind and sun.
The appearance was similar to the one worn by the prisoner who was beheaded before, except that the position of the eyes had become two protruding pillars.
The two eye pillars that emerged from the eye sockets stared fixedly at the cloudless sky.
Li Huowang averted his gaze and walked into the room next to it, which was not big, only the size of a classroom.
Strangely, there were no furnishings inside, just a square house.
Just as Li Huowang was puzzled, he suddenly felt various gazes sweeping over him, but strangely, there was nothing where those gazes came from.
Seeing this, Li Huowang knew he had come to the right place and directly showed his waist token.
With the sound of a special wooden collision, a hidden door rose from the side of the wall, and a middle-aged man with a thin figure walked out. There was a blind black bird on his shoulder.
"First time here?" The black bird spoke.
This novel is available on "pawread dot com".
Li Huowang nodded, "I have always been in Yincheng City before, today is my first time coming to the capital. Nice to meet you, senior."
"Come on, I'll show you around." The man with the bird turned around and walked back into the hidden door.
As Li Huowang followed, he found that the corridor inside the hidden door was not dim at all.
The oil lamps on the walls illuminated the corridor brightly. There was a crisp sound of footsteps echoing through the corridor.
Li Huowang looked at the man's back and thought it would be better to take the initiative in this situation. "I am Erjiu, from the Aojing Sect. Nice to meet you, senior."
"Sima Lan, from the Mo Family. Don't be too formal, since you've entered the Jiantiansi, you're already half a brother." The black bird continued to speak.
"Mo Family?" Li Huowang's pupils slightly contracted, this was the only phrase he had heard before, undoubtedly feeling a sense of familiarity.
But Sima Lan seemed to misunderstand Li Huowang's reaction. "Don't be afraid, I am from the Mo Family, not the evil cultivator Liang Mo."
