In the Clouds: Mulan Line

Chapter 35
For a moment, Hua Mulan and the others couldn't imagine what changes would happen to Xiaoyu. The thoughts and actions of the white-robed man were so crazy that it was impossible to speculate.

After putting Xiaoyu on the high platform, the white-robed man reached out and stroked the little girl's hair, his eyes full of expectation: "It should be okay this time, it doesn't matter if it doesn't work, as long as it absorbs a lot of life energy this time, Afterwards, it is enough to find some energy donors with the same breath. However, these energy donors collected with great difficulty will probably be used up today..."

When Hua Mulan heard this, anger burst into her heart.

The "energy donors" mentioned by the white robe population are all living girls!It is thousands, or even more lives.

However, in his mouth, it was such an understatement, and he didn't care about taking their life energy.

Such a frenzied behavior must not be allowed to continue.

At this time, Hua Mulan didn't care about these "silk threads" on her body. Even if she couldn't cut off these "silk threads" at will, wouldn't she really be unable to act?

Hua Mulan held the epee and took a step forward.

Almost at the same time, Hua Mulan couldn't help turning pale.

Although these silk threads are not real entities, they are entangled around her body, absorbing her life energy all the time.The loss of life energy made Hua Mulan inevitably weak.

If you just stand still, the loss of life energy can be less, but as long as you move, the silk threads will become tighter immediately, and the loss of life energy will also increase sharply.

If you can't stop the white-robed man before completely losing the ability to resist, then maybe you can really just watch everything happen!

"Baili, Kai, I guess this jade platform can have such an effect just by placing it. Take a closer look and find something that can interfere with the absorption of life energy without destroying the jade platform and ignoring these lines. method."

Hua Mulan said in a deep voice: "I was wrong... The man in white robe doesn't seem to care about the lives of these girls, but he wants to resurrect Xiaoyu, so how can he really not care if we destroy it at will?"

So the white-robed man looked mentally disturbed, but he was actually a little cunning. He just wanted Hua Mulan and the others to be wary of them, and then honestly let him slaughter him.

Turning a person into a jade boy, resurrecting a person's evil method is against the sky, it must be very complicated, if this jade platform is not touched, can't it touch the surroundings of the jade platform?

As long as it can play the role of some interference, it is enough!
"Then captain you..."

Hua Mulan stared at the white-robed man closely: "I'll stop him!"

Here, only she is the closest to the white-robed man!
And as the captain, she naturally did her part.

Even Hua Mulan didn't notice it, and before she knew it, she had already regarded herself as a real captain...

After Hua Mulan finished speaking, she took another step without hesitation.

This time, except that her face became paler, there was almost no abnormality in her expression. Looking at her eyes alone, it was absolutely impossible to see what kind of torture she was enduring at the moment.

Hua Mulan held the epee, her steps became more and more firm, and her movements became faster and faster.

At this time, the white-robed man also noticed Hua Mulan's movements. He looked at Hua Mulan, was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Very good, you are indeed very energetic...but don't waste it I can't let you run around anymore..."

The white-robed man started talking to himself again, and at the same time, when he moved his hands, Hua Mulan saw more silk threads emerging from the high platform, rushing towards her like leeches.

Hua Mulan didn't dodge at all, as if she didn't see these silk threads, she only paused slightly when she was entangled, and then walked towards the white-robed man at a faster speed.

The white-robed man was finally a little surprised, and then showed a troubled look: "How can you still move, you are a waste, it's all a waste..."

As he said that, the white-robed man showed a hint of anger, and he kept manipulating more silk threads to wrap around, looking extremely irritable.

But on the other hand, he caused the high platform to emit a more intense light, which almost completely enveloped the figures of the little girl and Xiaoyu, and completely cut off Xiaoyu's sight inside.

In this way, Xiaoyu can't see Hua Mulan's situation at all.

Such irritability and carefulness towards Xiaoyu almost made the white-robed person feel a sense of division...

At this time, in the eyes of Baili Shouyue and Kai, the place where Hua Mulan was almost completely covered by dense silk threads, but even so, they could still see that Hua Mulan's footsteps were still moving forward firmly.

Baili Shouyue only glanced at it, and then looked away. His eyes were extremely bright, his ears were straight up, and several observation eyes were thrown in different directions by him.

At this time, Baili kept the promise in a very anxious mood, but also very calm.

The captain has already issued a task, so what he should do is to do everything possible to complete the task.

And Kai's body made a crackling sound, and the evil armor exuded an ominous atmosphere wrapped around his two legs, and Kai also took steps because of this, carefully sensing all energy changes under his feet...

Hua Mulan took one step after another. Although the steps were not big, they were still approaching. The man in white robe kept releasing more silk threads, and became more and more irritable because of this.

"Stop quickly! This is wasted energy... You are wasting your life potential by forcefully walking away under pressure, and this is all for Xiaoyu!"

In fact, Hua Mulan couldn't hear what the white-robed man was saying at this time. Although she had been staring at the white-robed man closely, she could only see the opening and closing of the white-robed man's lips.

At this time, Hua Mulan was exhausted, every step she took seemed to be squeezing the last ounce of strength from her body.

Tired, really tired, Hua Mulan has never felt so tired before, no matter how hard the training is, no matter how difficult the battle is, she is never as tired as she is at this moment.

This is not just a reduction in physical strength, but all the energy in the whole body is being lost from the inside out.

Hua Mulan could feel that her hearing was declining, the surrounding sounds became blurred, her vision became a little blurred, her mind became dizzy, and even her thinking became muddled.

But even so, Hua Mulan still held the epee tightly, feeling the lines on the hilt and the coldness of the metal, which allowed Hua Mulan to maintain the last bit of clarity.

To stop him!No matter what, be sure to stop the other party!

Hua Mulan couldn't think of anything else at this time, she only knew that she had to go in front of the white-robed man, and then raise the epee in her hand!
The man in white really didn't expect that Hua Mulan could be so resilient. Although he was very satisfied with the vitality Hua Mulan showed, he was even more annoyed by the life energy that Hua Mulan wasted.

And as Hua Mulan got closer and closer, the white-robed man who realized this couldn't help being startled and angry.

Could this Hua Mulan... really be able to resist?

No, he will never allow any problems!

The white-robed man urged him with all his strength, and he decided to give up all of Hua Mulan's life energy to Xiaoyu first!
He had been waiting for this opportunity for too long. He thought it would be a long process, but he didn't expect Xiaoyu to bring Hua Mulan and her companions. This is a godsend opportunity!
By the way, Mulan's companion...

However, as soon as the white-robed man had such an idea, he suddenly felt the silk threads he controlled tremble.

These silk threads were not real silk threads at first, but they were just a kind of energy, just a kind of devouring energy.

They are connected to Yutai, Gaotai, Xiaoyu, the little girl, and those girls... He did not scare Hua Mulan and the others. If he really cut and destroyed these silk threads at will, then the original frequency of devouring might get out of control in an instant. Those girls would have to continue to support for a while...but the moment they lost control, the life energy in their bodies might be directly absorbed.

But just like what Hua Mulan thought, since the silk thread connects the high platform and those jade platforms at the same time, it naturally has no effect on Xiaoyu and the little girl...

Of course, no matter what, the three of Hua Mulan couldn't possibly destroy the silk thread rashly, but that doesn't mean they couldn't affect the silk thread!
At this time, the sudden tremor of the silk thread showed that Baili Shouyue and Kai had indeed found a way to influence the elaborate arrangement laid down by the white-robed man.

The white-robed man was furious, he turned his head suddenly and saw Baili Shouyue and Kai, with one spear and one sword, they even destroyed the ground of the jade platform around them silently!

The jade platform he carefully set up was dug bare and ugly, and a large number of special jade stones were exposed below. Both the jade stone and the jade platform came from this mine vein, and it can be said to be a whole with the jade mine.

But these special jade stones are the core part of the jade mine in this vein... The most important thing is that they are exactly the jade mine where Xiaoyu was born.

It can be seen that this special jade stone played a key role in the arrangement of the white-robed man, but at this time, one of the jade stones was actually held by Baili Shouyue.

The white-robed man was really furious, he didn't care about anything else at this moment, he just wanted to suck the three of them dry first!
How could he have imagined that in such a short period of time, these people really found the most important thing!
But at this moment, the sword in Hua Mulan's hand moved!

In fact, every time Hua Mulan took a step, she was accumulating energy. When her teammates really created an opportunity for her, Hua Mulan unleashed all her accumulated strength without hesitation!
This last force turned into the sword edge that Hua Mulan slashed with all her strength!
hum!
The eyes of the man in white robe suddenly widened!
The next moment, the blood burst!

Hua Mulan's body suddenly went limp, but she didn't collapse on the ground. Instead, she used the heavy sword in her hand to support her body the moment she was about to fall.

Her back remained straight.

And the man in white robe in front of her had a hideous sword wound on his chest, and half of his body was stained red with blood, but...he was still standing!

Hua Mulan's expression didn't change at all. She knew that it was because most of her physical strength was lost, so she couldn't deal a fatal blow to the white-robed man.

The white-robed man was a little stunned by the sword... He really didn't expect that this seemed to have completely fallen into his palm, and the three people he only regarded as energy donors could resist to such an extent !
This sword seemed to wake him up for a moment from that state of madness and paranoia, and the familiarity of Hua Mulan's expression and gaze at the white-robed man at this time suddenly became stronger than ever before.

"Priest Moon?" Hua Mulan asked hesitantly.

And as this title was blurted out, the white-robed man in front of him gradually overlapped with a figure that was almost forgotten in Hua Mulan's deliberately blurred memory.

That was after Hua Mulan was adopted by her adoptive father... and the memory before being adopted is too far away, and Hua Mulan can hardly remember it.

She only remembered that when she was picking up the grass roots on the ground to eat, she was taken back to his hometown by a serious Great Wall guard, and then told her that this was her home from now on.

It was a very beautiful village, usually isolated from the outside world. When her adoptive father usually went to the military camp, he would take her to the ancestral hall of the village and give her to the young priests to help take care of her.

The young priest was very gentle and respected in the village.The priest has great power, so he also acts as the guardian of the village.

And the priest also has a very cute daughter, who is several years younger than Hua Mulan. At first, Hua Mulan was not able to play with that little guy. The two children, one big and one small, often looked at each other curiously, look on in despair.

But even if she doesn't speak, no matter where Hua Mulan goes, she can always see a little guy following her when she turns her head.

Later, the two children still didn't speak much, but they played together tacitly and looked through the little picture books together.

However, when Hua Mulan was ten years old, the peace was suddenly broken.

The demon species attacked the village, and the original Xanadu was almost wiped out in an instant.

Hua Mulan always thought that in that attack, she was the only one who escaped by chance and became the only survivor, but she didn't expect that there were still people alive...

Too many changes happened that year, and many memories were deliberately forgotten by Hua Mulan, but she never expected to see familiar faces.

The white-robed man in front of him was the young priest Yue Hui back then, and Xiao Yu... was Xiao Douding who ran around with her back then.

Although Yuehui has changed a lot, Xiaoyu's face...is obviously frozen at that time.

Recalling the first time Xiaoyu saw her, she couldn’t wait to pounce on her. After that, no matter where she went, Xiaoyu would follow behind her, or just nestled in her arms... Hua Mulan was in a complicated mood. Xiaoyu has become Yuzi, but she is still exactly the same as before.

Although Hua Mulan did not recognize Xiaoyu, her subconscious mind grew close to Xiaoyu, and even gave Xiaoyu the same name as before.

Although Xiaoyu also doesn't remember Hua Mulan, she also gets close to Hua Mulan instinctively.

Neither of them can remember, but they still look like playmates back then.

And hearing Hua Mulan's words, the white-robed man... Yuehui was also taken aback for a moment: "Who is your name? Do you know me? Who are you?"

At this time, Yue Hui no longer looked like the gentle priest he used to be. He was covered in blood, staring at Hua Mulan carefully with wide-eyed eyes, as if he wanted to see something from Hua Mulan's face.

The name Yuehui has not been called for a long time.

"Are you...that kid from the village back then?" Yuehui finally recalled Hua Mulan with difficulty. For a moment, he had an extremely complicated look on his face, as if he was recalling, but also resisting those memories. .

As soon as Hua Mulan heard it, she knew that she hadn't admitted her mistake.

Back then, as a priest and guardian of the village, Yue Hui did not live and die with the village, but instead hid in such a strange place like a ghost for so many years...

Yuehui quickly recovered from the complicated emotions. He looked at Gaotai, and a hint of madness appeared in his eyes again: "By the way, aren't you Xiaoyu's friend? If this is the case, then you should also want to Let Xiaoyu be resurrected? Look, you have grown so big, but Xiaoyu is still so small, so pitiful..."

Hua Mulan looked at Yue Hui and said in a deep voice, "People don't die and come back to life, Priest Yue."

Yue Hui was slightly startled, and suddenly shook his head vigorously: "No, no, I thought it was impossible at the beginning, but you see, it is actually possible! Although the original body can no longer be used, I can make it Xiaoyu was revived on Yuzai, and once she was fully revived on Yuzai, it would be even better than being alive! No sickness, no death, I no longer have to worry about Xiaoyu getting hurt. She will always be My Xiaoyu will always live in happiness."

When Yue Hui said this, he danced excitedly, as if he had seen such a beautiful scene, and the sword wound on his body seemed to be completely ignored by him.

But Hua Mulan and Baili kept the contract, and Kai listened to Yue Hui's words, not only did not feel good, but felt extremely weird.

Baili kept the promise and Kai, listened to the conversation between Hua Mulan and Yue Hui, and also thought of what Hua Mulan said before, about the attack on her village. It seems that Xiaoyu, who was placed on the jade platform, died in In that attack?
What kind of attack was that?
Baili Shouyi originally thought that the village Hua Mulan was talking about was just a very ordinary village.

But he didn't expect that there was such a sacrifice as Yue Hui in this village.

Such a village was attacked by demon species, and almost no one survived.

"Yuzi is naturally activated from the jade in Yucheng. It is a natural creature born in jade. How did you do it..." Hua Mulan still couldn't believe it. How did a person become a jade boy?

Yue Hui's eyes are shining, he seems to have not communicated with anyone for a long time, and now that success is imminent, he can't wait to share his joy and achievements.

"Natural activation? No, no, no, that's the jade I made specially for Xiaoyu." Yue replied.

Hua Mulan's pupils shrank: "You mean...Xiaoyu, is it your artificially created jade?"
