Double world undercurrent

Chapter 24 Chapter 24 Invitation

After get off work, when Gu Xiaoxing returned home, the streets outside were roaring loudly, the scraps of paper rolled up between the shops, the leaves were falling, and a demonic wind blew.The sky darkened ahead of time, and the lights in the community were turned on early.

Her light figure shuttles back and forth between the kitchen and the dining room, and the fragrance of food fills the forest-style cabin, which makes her truly feel that she is still living a decent life.

Mingshuo invited Mingshuo to discuss the matter of mana suppression. Gu Xiaoxing changed the location to her own home. First, she thought her home was relatively closed and it was not easy to leak important information. Second, she sincerely wanted to invite Mingshuo to express her gratitude to him for his repeated rescues; The third is that the home is full of her life as Gu Xiaoxing, rather than Leng Xin. In this regard, she is indeed careful...

After Gu Xiaoxing finished setting up the dining table, he closed the bedroom door, then moved into the living room, poured water on the pot of white lisianthus, then sat back on the sofa nervously and expectantly, and gently brushed his black hair.

She was startled when her phone rang suddenly.

It's my mother's call!For more than 20 years, Gu Xiaoxing's adoptive parents have treated her as her biological daughter, and in her heart, they have long been her biological parents.

"Xiaoxing, have you eaten yet? We received the massage chair you bought. It's really useful! Your dad also likes it very much."

The mother on the other side of the phone wore thin-rimmed glasses, and an intellectual and kind appearance floated in front of my eyes.

"As long as you like it, I... haven't eaten yet."

"No matter how busy you are at work, don't forget to eat. Your body is important."

"I know……"

Gu Xiaoxing glanced at the delicacies on the table.

"Xiaoxing, the golden period of a girl is only a few years old. You have to seize the opportunity. Your Auntie Ye asked me again today, when will you come back? The kid in her family was interested in you before studying abroad. Now he is back to start a company. Still chasing you, I think you can..."

Gu Xiaoxing's face is full of black lines, it's impossible to guard against it!
"Hey...Mom...I haven't felt for them for so many years, the twisted melon is not sweet..."

"That kid is in good condition, you can cultivate your feelings again..."

Gu Xiaoxing really doesn't want to hear her talking about this matter:
"Hey, by the way, Mom, have you and Dad got the results of the physical examination reports, how are you doing?"

"It's all good. I'm still thinking that if you're too busy with work to come back, your dad and I will come to Yangcheng to see you. Anyway, he's going to take his annual leave."

"do not……"

Gu Xiaoxing thought about her situation, if they came to Yangcheng to see her, it would put them in a dangerous situation.

"During this period of time, the company has been working overtime, and I can't accompany you well when you come, or I can go back to see you after I finish my work."

"Okay, Xiaoxing, you take care of yourself alone..."

"Know it……"

After hanging up the phone, Gu Xiaoxing glanced out the window, she just vaguely heard thunder outside.

Ding-dong-

The doorbell rang.

She had a bright face, and the corners of her small mouth were slightly raised. She got up and stroked her dress, and walked briskly to open the door.

Ming Shuo actually made her eyes shine. He changed from the domineering and mysterious phantom robe he used to wear, and wore simple, clean, and high-quality casual clothes. His cool and handsome short hair and tall figure were infinitely magnified by this outfit.

A different kind of aura spread into Gu Xiaoxing's beating heart, she was only slightly startled, but ripples arose in her heart.

She invited him in with a smile on her face, and praised generously;
"Your body...you look so pretty..."

Ming Shuo locked her with a golden glow in his tender eyes.When he came here, he was still worrying about her mana suppression, worried that she would be harmed by Leng Yi, but seeing her so optimistic and positive, he was relieved a lot.

"As long as you think it looks good..."

He said.

Gu Xiaoxing's smile became shy, her cheeks were flushed, and her voice was as thin as a mosquito's legs, and she muttered:

"You look good no matter what..."

She turned around deftly like a kitten, moved lightly to the dining table, and invited Ming Shuo to take a seat in the way of hospitality.

Wherever it passed, there seemed to be a gust of breeze blowing in the clean and tidy forest room, even the few white eustomas on the flower stand shook comfortably.

The beauty in his eyes is fragile and tenacious, colliding with Mingshuo's heart, and the wings stretched out for her grow quietly again.

"Is this...a gift for me?"

A beautiful little box appeared in front of Gu Xiaoxing's eyes.

She was overjoyed, her eyes were as bright as stars.Brighter than the lightning bolt outside the window.

"Well... let's open it and have a look."

The affection in Ming Shuo's eyes floated on the corner of his mouth.

Gu Xiaoxing's heart jumped for joy, how could this be the rhythm for talking about serious business?

"Then I..."

She gently untied the tie with her slender hands, slowly opened the lid of the box, and then froze!

A jade bracelet with fine and transparent texture, fresh and elegant emerald color, and high-quality water was lying in the box.

He actually gave himself a jade bracelet!
This is a special gift!

Gu Xiaoxing suddenly felt a little lack of oxygen, and his hands seemed to weigh a thousand catties, but his heart was floating.Not because of the gift itself, but because of him.

She didn't know when she had been attracted to Ming Shuo, and she seemed to be out of control.Indeed, at this time, the heart expressed by this gift made her heart ecstatic, and the intense joy almost overwhelmed the worries in her heart.

That was the confusion she didn't dare to ask, it was a knot in her heart that she hadn't solved yet.

Gu Xiaoxing's eyes were shining, she couldn't hide the liking in her heart, but she couldn't hide the hesitation in her mind either.

Is Ming Shuo trying to test her?Or, is she just thinking too much?
"I have attached mana to this jade bracelet, which can transform your willpower into external spiritual power, control the divine essence, and help you resist Leng Yi's mana suppression..."

After seeing Gu Xiaoxing's reaction, Ming Shuo said that his gentle and deep eyes are intriguing.

"...Only jade can carry such mana, and the left hand is connected with Shenyuan, this jade bracelet is the most suitable for you..."

There was hope in his eyes.

The left hand is connected to Shenyuan, and the left hand is connected to the heart!
Gu Xiaoxing's almond eyes danced with starlight, and she couldn't help clasping her hands together in front of her chest.

Ming Shuo also attached mana to the jade bracelet, in order to help me deal with Leng Yi...

The warm ocean finally overwhelmed her heart.

With a shy face, she carefully took out the jade bracelet, and wrapped it around her wrist with a cold and smooth touch:
"How do you know I'm... so suitable!"

This size is simply made for her!

Waves flashed across Ming Shuo's eyes.

I remember everything about you.

He said in his heart.

Thunder was billowing outside the window, and it seemed that it was about to rain.The warmth in the house is a quiet warm yellow color, and the delicious food on the table is full of smoke and fire.

"Huh," talking and laughing freely, Gu Xiaoxing took a sip of orange juice and asked curiously, "Do you also eat these in other worlds?"

Ming Shuo's eyes flickered slightly, and after thinking about it, he said:

"The food in the other world is still not the same as here."

"Then you can really do as the Romans do."

Gu Xiaoxing simply smiled.

Her eyes sparkled, her cheeks were slightly drunk, she drank fruit juice, but she still looked so intoxicated.

In Mingshuo's eyes, the unbearable love couldn't hold back and heated up, scorching hot and bright like an expanding light cluster, about to engulf her whole.

He lowered his eyes and looked away, stared at the dishes in the bowl, picked up the piece of goose leg and took two bites.

Gu Xiaoxing took another sip of orange juice and was eating to his heart's content when suddenly, a small white light cluster faded out in his mind, shining softly.Although it floated in my mind, it felt like it was hanging in my sight.

"what happened?"

Ming Shuo noticed something strange in her, raised his eyes cautiously and asked.

"I seem to see a small white light cluster hanging in my mind."

Gu Xiaoxing was puzzled.

"...that is the image of your divine essence, because you are wearing a jade bracelet, which can help you perceive and control your divine essence."

Ming Shuo breathed a sigh of relief.

"Can Shenyuan still see like this?"

Gu Xiaoxing was a little surprised.

Ming Shuo nodded, and then, he seemed to think of something, his eyes froze.

"Xin'er, take a closer look at your Shenyuan, does it only have one color?"

Gu Xiaoxing closed his eyes, focused his attention on the Shenyuan image in his mind.

In the lower right corner of the small white light group, there is an inconspicuous streak of dark red.

She told Mingshuo about this situation.

"That's Leng Yi's mana suppression."

There was a trace of coldness in Ming Shuo's eyes.

"How can I resist his mana suppression?"

Gu Xiaoxing turned his head and asked.

"If he bothers you, you have to concentrate and try to think of something that can stimulate your fighting spirit. The spirit is connected with the spirit, and the jade bracelet can transform your willpower into spiritual power, help you control the spirit, and also You will not awaken your own spiritual power."

Gu Xiaoxing thought of Leng Yi who appeared in the nightmare, if he invaded her spirit, would she still need to think about other things to stimulate her fighting spirit?As soon as I saw him, I had the fighting spirit to fight.

Thunder and lightning flashed outside the window, finally tore a big hole in the sky, and the torrential rain overturned.

Dense raindrops slapped on the canopy, playing wild howling wind, raging into the house, rolling up the curtains and stirring.

"It's so windy outside..."

Gu Xiaoxing stood up, intending to close the window in the past.

Mingshuo thought to herself, closing the window can be done by snapping her fingers, and she still needs to walk over it herself. Is it because she has too little awakened spiritual power, or is she unable to use it?Although it is a good thing that the spiritual power has not been awakened...

Ming Shuo stared at her walking figure, and asked with concern:

"Xin'er, with your currently awakened spiritual power, what skills are you going to use now?"

Gu Xiaoxing closed the window, turned around, and while wrestling his fingers to think carefully, he said:

"Well... the known skills probably include... opening shields, short-distance teleportation, manipulating water bodies, spell shooting, seeing invisible objects... Actually, I don't know if there are others—"

She was stunned, and she saw extreme panic in her eyes, as if she had seen something terrible.She frowned, lowered her head and gently supported her forehead, her expression froze with intense pain.

The slender and light body almost swayed, if Ming Shuo hadn't passed in time for the phantom to hug her.

"what happened to you?"

The concern and worry in his heart overwhelmed him.

Gu Xiaoxing's eye circles were rosy, she saw the painful scene as if a chip had been implanted in her mind abruptly, and her skull burst:

In a corner of Yangcheng where thunderstorms are raging, the background buildings look like they are in a garden square in the middle of the street. There are more than a dozen corpses lying here and there, and the umbrellas are all over the ground. There are men, women, adults, children, and fat people among them. thin, young, old...

Their postures are either on their backs or lying on their backs, or they are weirdly twisted...

The backlog of rain mixed with blood gurgled into the nearby sewer, and a sharp lightning cut through the night sky, illuminating the face of one of the corpses. The expression on his face was extremely happy, so happy!

In the center of the tragic square, stands a huge light blue talisman - long neck and thin waist, both top and bottom are trumpet-shaped.

Another lightning flashed across, stabbing the angle of the square.

It was a tall woman with ear-length short hair, she turned her head slowly, under her slender phoenix eyes, her charmingly smiling red lips were bloodthirsty and violent!

Gu Xiaoxing didn't know whether it was because of fear or sadness, her eyes were empty and her lips trembled uncontrollably.

"I... I saw... I saw..."

With great difficulty, she told Ming Shuo all this.

"These... are too real... like... a prophecy..."

Mingshuo's brows were low, and the gentle eyes that paid attention to her gradually deepened.

"This isn't a prophecy...it's happening..."

He felt her body still trembling.

"...Xin'er...you used to have a special ability...an ability unique to the gods...I think...the symbol of the forbidden weapon fused with your ability when it awakened your spiritual power, so ...you will...see these."

"My...what ability?"

Gu Xiaoxing was still immersed in the fear of the scene just now.

"The Eye of Rebirth...you can see the picture of people when they died."

She stood there blankly.

Those innocent strangers in the picture, they really just died.There were adults, children, the young, the old... though she had nothing to do with them, she didn't even know them.

But, those are all fresh lives!

It is a life with thoughts and emotions!

She was powerless but still wanted to watch them die!
What is the use of this ability for her!

"...The short-haired woman you mentioned is Lan Youzi...Leng Yi's subordinate...I won't let her run away like this."

Ming Shuo's eyes were cold.

Gu Xiaoxing saw that he had just issued an order.

Suddenly, a messenger crane faded into sight and directly turned into a microphone, which could actually talk:

"Your Highness..."

It was Zareth's anxious voice,

"Say……"

"The energy vortex under the waters of the pier has come alive, and... more than one... We have detected many... densely distributed under the water... At present, groups of dark energy ghouls are constantly emerging from the water. Just attack and absorb the essence of mortals...they have already begun to abuse the city..."
