Darkness.
With a light tap of his toes, ripples immediately spread out in all directions like water ripples. Until it disappeared.
Below was water, and above was the sky. It was blue and clear, like the blue crystal core spirit unique to those noble flower demons, without dust or dirt.
On all four sides, the translucent glass walls flickered with a faint fluorescent light as they rotated. In this slightly dark environment, it was like a melody, slowly pursuing its own pace. Silently, it played its unique splendor. Vaguely, through the flickering light, one could see the fine and clear embossed on it, but it was not clear. It was shrouded in a misty haze.
The wall was shockingly close, but it was a void that you could never reach.
There was nothing in the huge space.
It was unknown if the glazed wall surrounded this watery sky or if heaven and earth covered it.
At the entrance of the Abyss Restaurant, the three demons looked at the 'ground' in a daze. His expression was one of shock, astonishment, and disbelief.
In the center of the calm water surface were four strange and charming patterns.
In the row outside, there were three Dark Eternal Flowers that bloomed wantonly.
That was the position they had stood at when they came to Lin Yuan Restaurant to meet Lord Xi. But today, in front of the three Everbloom Flowers, there was a cold and evil word.
Mirror!
Ever since the Three Uniques had arrived here a hundred years ago, they had never seen the word " Mirror ", which symbolized the peak of the assassin, appear. Even if they continued to work hard and cultivate, they would only obtain the Dark Eternal Spirit Flower in the Abyss Tower.
Even though only the top assassins of the Mirror Sunset Pavilion could enter the Profound Tower!
Who was it that had passed them without them knowing and reached the 'mirror' that they had been chasing after for a hundred years?!
"Let's go in. It's a quarter past seven!"
The cold man with grayish-black wolf ears reminded him indifferently.
Upon hearing this, three figures immediately jumped up from where they were and landed accurately on the three Dark Everbloom Flowers in an instant. His eyes were filled with unconcealable panic!
They were supposed to be in position at quarter past seven. Just now, his mind was in a mess because of the word " mirror ", and he had unknowingly stayed at the entrance for an entire moment! Lord Xi hated being late!
With lingering fear, the Three Absolutes lowered their heads and waited for Lord Xi's punishment.
And then…
Silence?
Boundless silence?
After a long while, that cold and stern voice did not ring out. He could only hear his companion's heavy breathing due to his panic.
Ding ding…
The crisp sound of the bell broke the silence.
They still didn't dare to look at the source of the sound. They even wondered if this was Lord Xi testing them.
However…
Ding! Ding! Ding!
The bell chime continued to approach, and a clear, crystal-like sound of collision rang out. It was so natural, without the slightest bit of spell power mixed in, but it was especially pleasing to the ear.
Finally, the green-robed woman standing in the middle carefully glanced behind her, at the source of the voice…
He saw a gorgeous, complicated, and enchanting blood-red off-shoulder robe. The fine silk threads wrapped around the exquisite embroidery on the robe. Her jade-like skin was bone-piercing and exquisite. Her rare gray hair was tied behind her shoulders with a ribbon, making her look extremely charming. The faint sharp ears under her hair silently indicated her race.
As the sound of the bell kept changing, she finally noticed:
This woman didn't wear shoes!
She walked over in lotus steps, her fair feet faintly visible under her robe. Every moment he stopped, exquisite ripples were left behind him. The sound of the ringtone came from the red anklet around her ankle.
The anklet was made of high-grade crystals. It was a clear red without the slightest impurity, like bright red blood blooming at the edge of the cold sword. It was beautiful, ethereal, and mysterious for a moment.
Compared to their panic, the woman was indifferent. She walked elegantly without the slightest panic or confusion.
Who was she? He wasn't even afraid of the ruthless Lord Xi!
As he was puzzled, the woman passed by them and stopped just as she was about to step onto the mirror word.
" It's been 200 years. I thought I was no longer worthy…"
"... Yes, two hundred years..."
A faint sigh sounded out of thin air. It was clear but also vague, and the position of the sound could not be distinguished.
Such an ordinary sigh was more terrifying than thunder in San Jue's ears!
This was their Lord Xi?
He did not blame or punish her for being late!
She was disrespectful, and he did not take her life!
He even sighed!
Why would the usually cold and heartless Lord Xi speak in such a regretful tone?!
As if to confirm their fear, the undulating voice sounded again,
"Zhiming, you are too stubborn.”
The woman who was called Zhi Ming smiled. Her face was beautiful, and she was a little pale, a sickly pale.
"It's just the same. Aren't you also persistent? You've been in Lin Yuan Tower for more than 200 years, right? Isn't this what you rely on?”
He must have been here since her life was hanging by a thread two hundred years ago when Jiali carried her into the Lin Yuan Pavilion.
She was stubborn, but wasn't he?
"Ha, no one has spoken to me like this in two hundred years!”
There was finally some relief in his calm voice.
"Tell me, what's the mission?"
Zhiming lightly cut to the chase, a faint smile on his face.
The invisible male voice fell silent. After an unknown amount of time, it sounded again, cold and emotionless."Canglian Royal City, Young Master Qing Ya. Tomorrow morning, Jia Zhai will leave with you.”
"Yes."
He didn't even want to know who Jia Zhai was, so he used his magic power and disappeared from the Inner Affinity Pavilion.
The green-robed Yao Zhai finally couldn't help it!
When did she become a decorative vase?!
"Lord Xi…"
"Alright, all of you can leave. Zhaiye, here's Young Master Qing Ya's information! [Remember, you can't let Zhiming see the information before the mission is completed!]”
As the indifferent voice sounded, a diamond-shaped jade stone floated up from the water below and slowly fell into the hands of Jia Zhai.
"Yes, sir!"
Even though she was full of questions, she still quietly followed the other two and turned into a light shadow to leave the Lin Yuan Restaurant.
