At the base of the archway, a ghostly blue light emanated, spreading outwards like a tide. Wherever it reached, the deathly aura of the land was temporarily dispelled, and the black scorched earth on the ground seemed to tremble slightly under this light, fearing this newborn power.
The two suns in the sky seemed to sense something and turned towards Ye Buxin.
But Ye Buxin didn't care at all. She just swaggered around doing her own thing, completely ignoring the dangerous aura above.
Rumble.
Something immense is awakening in the darkness.
Chapter 696 A Featured Event—Bullying Luo Benmo
On the edge of the vast grassland, the wind blows from the wilderness.
The wind howled, and the inn stood there all alone, looking particularly lonely.
The inn's exterior walls are built with rough logs, and you can occasionally see some dried moss in the gaps between the logs.
These logs, weathered by wind and rain, have become dark and mottled in color, like the wrinkles on the face of a seasoned old man.
The walls are decorated with some grassland-style decorations, including brightly colored wool felt embroidered with exquisite patterns, the work of grassland girls; and strings of dried chili peppers and garlic, swaying gently in the breeze.
The main gate consists of two heavy wooden doors with exquisite carvings on the panels. The carvings mostly depict animals from the grasslands: galloping horses, agile antelopes, and eagles soaring high. The door handles are made of brass, polished smooth by time, and adorned with simple patterns. They feel rough to the touch, yet possess a rich texture.
Leng Yan pushed open the door and entered. By the fireplace in the hall, Song Panning was sitting there wrapped in a quilt.
Before leaving, Yang Pingsheng left her some Dao True Traces and Life-Protecting Artifacts. The Dao True Traces helped her repair her physical defects, and the Life-Protecting Artifacts prevented Heaven from targeting her as it had before.
Having regained her memories and still being able to control spiritual energy, she once again became the array master.
The inn here is already under the protection of her formation, and with the help of that life-concealing magic artifact, it is well hidden.
"Fate is indeed a mysterious power, and even more mysterious is this Great Dao True Mark. With the help of these two things, my array formation skills have made a new breakthrough."
She exhaled deeply, somewhat moved.
In the mountain city, not many people know these skills. The most powerful one is the Divine Dance. Powers like Destiny and True Mark of the Great Dao would have been used to wreak havoc in the mountain city long ago.
If Song Panning knew fate, the other party would probably have died the moment they started dancing.
"Where is Luo Benmo?" Song Panning asked Leng Yan.
He said coldly, "She's still just sitting in the backyard, lost in thought. She doesn't respond when I call her."
Song Panning nodded: "Luo Benmo's intuition is truly terrifying. Without regaining his memory, he relied on instinct to draw a portrait of Yang Pingsheng, even though it was very abstract."
She paused for a moment, then continued, "Yang Pingsheng left me with very few Dao True Traces. Constructing new formations and helping Luo Benmo recover his memories consumed a lot of them. What's left is probably only enough to restore one villain's memories."
Leng Yan sighed helplessly, "My lord, my network of connections has been wiped out, and now the royal family is after us. Finding the remaining villains is going to be even more difficult."
Song Panning was not surprised and said, "Of course. The fact that they were able to kidnap Luo Benmo is already a result of their poor guarding, which allowed us to take advantage of them. Now they will definitely be more vigilant and will not give us any chance."
"What should I do?"
"But there is at least one villain whose location we are 100% certain of."
"You mean........."
"That's right, Xu Anlu and Xu Anyin, they are in the palace."
Song Panning would not sit idly by and wait for her doom.
Although she didn't understand why Ye Buxin didn't kill them after taking control of the situation, she was very clear about one thing: Ye Buxin didn't have time to care about them now, and might not even be in this world anymore.
[Heavenly Dao] governs everything. If Ye Buxin really wanted to deal with them, she would have plenty of ways to do so even without killing them. However, she has not appeared yet, and it is the Alliance of Heroes and the royal family who are chasing after them. This shows that Ye Buxin is either in the mood or unable to deal with this matter.
This is Song Panning's opportunity.
While it's true that the Grand Formation excels at defensive battles, Song Panning has already mastered the mobile formation, so with flexible application, it could easily be turned into a siege battle.
However, for an array to be moved, the primary condition is that it must be lightweight and its structure must not be complex. Therefore, Song Panning needs to use the True Mark of the Great Dao to set up an array that can kill with a single blow.
The formation structure established this time is very simple, consisting of only three things: spiritual energy, traces of the Great Dao, and a life-protecting artifact. Song Panning is using only these three things to create a great formation that can deceive fate and then destroy the entire imperial palace.
"Leng Yan, help me hold the line."
"it is good."
The spiritual light of the formation illuminated the inn, and suddenly, with a bang, the door was kicked open.
Luo Benmo, who had recovered, stood at the door, his silver hair dancing in the wind, his eyes looking at the two of them.
-------------
Good and evil are truly a headache-inducing question.
Luo Benmo thought she had seen through evil, but she realized that she was terribly wrong.
Every day she spent in the new world was an incredibly long night. She lived in a daze, surrounded by a frozen silence. The ingratiating smiles of the people around her made her feel somewhat lost. Every time the butler named Lone Wolf addressed her respectfully, she felt extremely uncomfortable.
She felt a void in her heart. She had achieved the respect she desired, but she was not happy.
People came and went, the whole family revolved around her. She was all alone, without any brothers or sisters, and all the love of her family was focused on her.
She was a spoiled princess, the lawless queen of her household.
But she felt that everything in this world had nothing to do with her, and every time she looked in the mirror, she could see her pale face.
Her intuition told her that this shouldn't be the case.
Following her intuition, she created a series of distorted paintings.
She lived a life that others envied, surrounded by a crowd of ingratiating love.
However, she always felt that it shouldn't be like this.
This kind of life belongs to anyone, but not to her, Luo Benmo.
The real Robbenmo.
-------------
Respect? Such a blissful life had numbed her blood.
Now, the truth has been revealed, and memories have returned.
She then realized what she wanted.
A king who rules over evildoers, a leader who sets the rules?
A villain manipulated by fate, a fool controlled by human will?
No, it's not like that.
She may seem domineering, but she is actually insecure; she may seem indifferent, but she is actually unable to let go.
She was just too scared.
She feared her subordinates, feared her brother, and departed like her mother, like a blood pigeon.
Of all the female villains, she seems to be the most capable fighter, but in reality, she might be the most uneasy one.
Perhaps she is the one who needs the most protection and longs for peace of mind.
-------------
Having regained her memories with the help of the Great Dao True Mark, she stood at the door, her silver hair whipped by the wind. She moved her stiff and trembling body as she stepped inside.
Song Panning remained still, calmly looking at her: "Have you calmed down?"
Luo Benmo asked, "Where is Yang Pingsheng?"
"Tsk, is this the first question after calming down?" Song Panning snorted coldly. "He's busy with his own things. I'm here to rescue you."
"what's up?"
"You're asking so many questions, how am I supposed to know what's going on?"
"He didn't say?"
"I didn't say it."
"Then aren't you going to ask?"
"Why should I ask?" Song Panning said, "Do you think I'm as perverted as you, wanting to know everything?"
In fact, in terms of controlling nature alone, Song Panning is no less controlling than Luo Benmo, but she took advantage of Luo Benmo's slow recovery, causing him to miss the opportunity to communicate with Yang Pingsheng.
Luo Benmo remained silent.
The little figure was so frail, it looked as if it would fall over if the wind blew it.
“I know what else you want to ask, like about your subordinates.” Song Panning coughed and continued, “Your subordinates are probably all under the control of the royal palace. There’s nothing I can do about it. After all, I haven’t fully recovered yet. It’s already a miracle that I was able to rescue you.”
Luo Benmo clenched his fist.
The den of villains is finished.
After the arrival of the new world, the Heavenly Dao washed away the identities of those bloodthirsty people and erased the memories of Lone Wolf and others, giving them new identities. Under these circumstances, Luo Benmo could no longer command them as before.
Even if the palace hadn't tied those people up, they probably wouldn't be as loyal to Luo Benmo as before.
She lost everything except Yang Pingsheng.
She pursed her lips, and after a long while, she said in a weak voice, "You can contact Pingsheng, right?"
Song Panning was about to tell the truth, but then a mischievous thought popped into her head.
“Yes, I can contact them.” Song Panning nodded.
"and you........"
"Oh, that's what he told me: if you recover, don't go looking for him."
"why?"
"You don't want me anymore."
Luo Benmo was stunned for a moment, sniffed, and then turned and ran away.
"?"
Song Panning looked at Leng Yan: "What's wrong with her?"
She just wanted to tease her with her mischievousness, but she didn't expect the person to actually believe her.
If Yang Pingsheng could contact her, he would have done so already; why would he need her to relay the message?
