One Qi Chaoyang

Chapter 372 Chapter 373: The Man Seeking Light

There was silence in the darkness. A person like a yellow cloud was floating in the air, and a ball of brilliant golden light was soaring around the yellow cloud.

Below, Zhao Fuyun stood on the top of a distant mountain, holding a dimly lit lamp in his left hand and a grayish-white ring in the other.

He didn't know whether what the giant snake demon said was true or false. He had no way to judge, and didn't want to judge.

Although he was not a dying man as she said, he could not explain to her. He turned around and walked away, heading down the mountain. The yellow clouds and the flames in the sky followed him down and gathered towards the land on the other side of the mountain.

In the midst of the fire, a three-legged golden crow flew downwards. The fire quickly shrank smaller and smaller, and finally landed on the lamp that Zhao Fuyun was holding in his left hand.

The originally dim flame on the lamp suddenly became brighter.

Along with the fire, a yellow cloud also fell down. Under the reflection of the fire, the yellow cloud looked like a piece of yellow gauze floating down, forming a yellow ribbon and penetrating into the fontanelle of Zhao Fuyun's forehead.

Seeing Zhao Fuyun leave, Fourth Aunt's eyes flickered. Finally, she sighed, took a step forward, and came to Chunshengjun's side.

Chunshengjun lay on the ground, motionless.

She discovered that Chunshengjun's body was actually sunk into the soil. The part of his back that was in contact with the ground looked as if it had been buried in the soil for a long time, and his flesh seemed to have turned into soil.

"Mr. Chunsheng?" Fourth Aunt stood there and called out condescendingly.

Chunshengjun was certainly not dead, and even Fourth Aunt didn’t know if his injuries were as serious as they looked.

"Why don't you take action?" Chunshengjun asked with his eyes closed. Although his voice sounded a little weak, his attitude did not soften.

"Because I don't know where the second infant god beside him came from." said Fourth Aunt.

"I thought you let him go because you knew Yun Yiqing." Chun Shengjun said.

"I thought you would pretend not to hear it." said Fourth Aunt.

"What do you want to do?" Chunshengjun opened his eyes. His eyes had turned into a yellowish earth color, or even like mud, as if someone had rolled two small balls of mud and stuffed them into his eye sockets.

Seeing this scene, even though Fourth Aunt had seen many strange things, she couldn't help but be moved.

She could imagine that Chunshengjun's eyes had turned to mud, and his internal organs must not be in good condition either.

But despite this, Chunshengjun still did not die.

She even knew that if she let him hide here, it wouldn't be long before he would be able to get up again and slowly get better.

"Can't you guess what I'm going to do?" Fourth Aunt said quietly.

"Haha, if I die here, the Emperor's gaze will fall here, and He will know that you have betrayed the darkness. You should know that those who betray the darkness will be forever addicted to it." Chun Shengjun said.

Fourth Aunt looked at the sky. It was pitch black. The lights just now were something she had not seen in many years.

"I am just repaying a favor to an old friend. As you just heard, I have forgotten the name Yun Yiqing over the years. Besides, Yun Yiqing is not a taboo in this darkness."

"Whether it is a taboo or not is not up to you to decide. It depends on the Emperor's intention. I heard that in recent years, a group of people have been looking for the place where Chi Yan is buried. Yun Yiqing is a main member of them. Otherwise, how could people who are involved with her be 'revealed' just because of the news about her?" Chun Shengjun said so much as a warning.

No one wants to die if they can live.

"Really? I was born and raised here, and I've never heard of the place where the Red Flame is buried. Do you know where the Red Flame is buried?" Fourth Aunt asked suddenly. Chun Shengjun was stunned, then laughed and said, "In the darkness, asking about the secret of the Red Flame is the greatest sin. Do you want to ask about it too?"

"Don't you think this dark sky is a bit monotonous?" Fourth Aunt suddenly asked.

"What do you want to say?" Chunshengjun asked.

"You have also been to the White Land. You should know that in the White Land, everything is so bright and colorful." said Fourth Aunt.

Although Chunshengjun's eyes had turned into two mud balls, he still turned to look at Fourth Aunt and said slowly: "What do you want to do?"

Fourth Aunt smiled and suddenly took out a robe from her sleeve. She untied the silver rope tied to the bag, and a gust of wind rushed out, pulling Chunshengjun into the bag.

She looked at the direction where Zhao Fuyun left, and couldn't help but recall her experience of wandering around with a young girl, searching for secluded caves.

That memory quickly revived in her heart, recalling the happiness of that time.

Compared to the current situation where there are so many snakes everywhere and they dominate the world, she would rather go back to the feeling of being curled up in the snake bag around the girl's waist.

She recalled the swaying feeling, and the girl's intermittent voice seemed to reappear in her ears.

"Xiao Si, come and see, that is the glow of the sunset."

"Come on, let's get closer and see where this glow is coming from."

"This glow is the afterglow of the red flame. If we find its starting point, we can find the place where the red flame is buried."

"Oh, what a pity, it disappeared again."

"Xiao Si, do you think these are just my hallucinations? In fact, there has never been any glow."

"Xiao Si, you are so smart. Grow up quickly and be my mount in the future. You see, others ride cranes and beasts, but I ride clouds all the time. I will teach you the art of flying clouds. If you fly, I will ride you."

"Xiao Si, I have a bad feeling. The night seems to be watching me."

"Do you think they are reliable?"

"Those people actually said they were light chasers. It's hilarious. However, they seem to know a lot of secrets. I'm going to get in touch with them."

"Xiao Si, you should stay here. This mountain is suitable for your cultivation."

"..."

The memory of Yun Yiqing was revived in her heart.

As for what she had said to Zhao Fuyun about Yun Yiqing before, she was naturally only saying it to Chunshengjun.

But later she changed her mind again and put it into the wind bag.

"Miss Qing, what did you do to me? How could I have forgotten your existence and only remember you today?" Fourth Aunt felt mixed emotions.

Holding the wind bag, she transformed into a giant snake and soared into the sky, disappearing into the darkness in the blink of an eye.
