Chapter 523: 523

The pitch-black entrance was so deep that no one was able to see the end . It was as though the entrance was a mouth of a mythical beast . Moreover, a cold aura came out of the entrance which added a bit of mysterious horror .

The pupils of Mu Hanyan shrunk and she subconsciously became alert .

“Honorable Envoy, please enter . ” Long Zhan looked at Mu Hanyan and a hint of strange light flashed through his eyes .

Only allowed on Creativenovels . com

Mu Hanyan took two steps forward and stopped right before this entrance . Coldly looking at Long Zhan, she said, “You enter first . ”

“Honorable Envoy is too cautious . Since that is the case, Xian Yun will enter the pa.s.sage first . ” Long Zhan indifferently said and entered that secret pa.s.sage with large strides .

For an unknown reason, Mu Hanyan's heart suddenly jumped violently . She could instinctively feel that something dangerous was approaching her . However, she didn't have much time to think . She quickly reached out to grab Long Zhan who was walking into the inner room .

A strange purple light flashed through the room and Mu Hanyan's hand bounced off Long Zhan's shoulder . It seemed as though there was a strange power stopping her .

“Hahaha, Honorable Envoy, you can slowly enjoy the sumptuous meal respectfully prepared for you by this Xian Yun . ” Long Zhan complacently laughed wildly .

All of a sudden, the entire secret room was shrouded by a layer of purple light . A strange magic array suddenly emerged from under the ground and countless mysterious magic runes appeared on the walls .

“Forbidden magic array! Looks like this is really a trap you set up…” Mu Hanyan suddenly understood . It was basically impossible for him to set up such a large scale forbidden magic array all around the Ximen Residence . He had set it up here in this secret room and his plan was to lead her into this trap since the beginning .

“Correct, unfortunately, Honorable Envoy realized it a little too late . Speaking of which, Xian Yun had yet to thank Honorable Envoy for imparting this forbidden magic array to me . Hahaha” The face of Long Zhan was twisted with a complacent expression . He looked even more abnormal .

“We are from the same side, why do you want to harm me?” Mu Hanyan calmed down and asked coldly .

“Same side? Honorable Envoy… Did you take Xian Yun for a fool? You have already changed sides to the Ximen Clan . Those dark warriors and dark magicians behind Xian Yun were refined using the method you imparted to me . Perhaps, you could annihilate all of them with a single move . You must die here . ” Long Zhan had a ferocious and bloodthirsty expression on his face .

The heart of Mu Hanyan sunk . She had underestimated this fellow . She had never thought that he would dare to deal with her openly .

“Do you think just this forbidden magic array can trap me?” Mu Hanyan coldly said .

“No need to scare me . In the past, it might not have been able to trap you . However, your soul is injured and it has yet to recover . Why else will I dare to make this move against you?” Long Zhan smiled . Now, everything was within his control . This kind of feeling was thousands of times better than being controlled .

The complexion of Mu Hanyan finally changed . The matter of her soul injury was not known by anyone else . Maybe Long Yi knew about it, however, how did this Xian Yun learn about it?

“Want to know where I got the information? Hahaha, I'll let you die after learning everything . I learned about your injury from the Red Sleeves Boat in White Cloud City . You should be able to guess the ident.i.ty of the person who told me . ” Long Zhan roared with laughter . At this moment, he was so proud of himself that he wasn't able to describe it in words .

The expression of Mu Hanyan changed again . She already knew who that person was . It should be none other than Jingjing who had a bitter hatred for her . Presumably, Long Yi talking about her injury to Jingjing . Jingjing should have been the one to tell everything to the Military Advisor . If she knew about this earlier, she would have killed Jingjing long ago .

“Don't be so complacent . Did you forget that we had a blood contract? If I die here, you'll die as well . ” Mu Hanyan faintly said .

Long Zhan laughed harder and there was a strange expression on his face . He looked at Mu Hanyan as though he was looking at a dead person . Shaking his head, he said, “How were you unable to realize it? The person who signed the blood contract with you wasn't me . Of course, it wasn't strange for you to overlook the fact that I had a twin younger brother who felt extremely indebted to me . As an intelligent person, you should know everything now right? Well, enough talking… Honorable Envoy, you should be on your way now . This Xian Yun would part ways with you here . ”

Long Zhan closed his mouth and looked at Mu Hanyan with a peculiar gaze . Turning away, he disappeared into that secret pa.s.sage . The moment he left, the entrance instantly closed and disappeared without a trace .

In the midst of the purple light, Mu Hanyan's strong and indifferent expression collapsed . A painful look appeared on her face .

Forbidden magic arrays… In the legends, even G.o.ds had to restrict the usage of such magic arrays . Only the incomplete version of the magic array was pa.s.sed down . Although the magic array had 'forbidden' in its name, it was not forbidden in reality . The moment the magic array was activated, it would directly erode the person's spirit power, consciousness, and soul . If Mu Hanyan's soul wasn't injured, then she could have easily broken through this forbidden magic array . That was the only reason she dared to teach the magic array to the Military Advisor . However, she had never thought that she would be spinning a coc.o.o.n around herself when she thought that way .

Mu Hanyan gritted her teeth and quickly chanted an obscure incantation . A thin layer of dark mist slowly flowed out of her body as it kept out the invasion of purple light into her body .

At the same time, Mu Hanyan took out a magic scroll made from golden silk and she began chanting another incantation as her entire body trembled .

Suddenly, a strong magic fluctuation appeared a few meters away from Mu Hanyan . s.p.a.ce distorted all around her and the golden silk magic scroll in her hand transformed into a hint of golden light as it disappeared . As for Mu Hanyan, she vomited a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground . A phantom began to appear in front of her eyes . That phantom was a handsome man with s.h.i.+ny black eyes with a hint of a cheeky smile on his face . He was watching her with his affectionate eyes and he had a warm smile on his face . There was no suspicion in his eyes and he wasn't scheming anything . She could see that he only had a pure tender feeling for her .
