Chapter 3549: Avatar of the Outside World

"I understand, Father."After the revelation, Douglas also became excited. He had been pursuing Helena for two reasons: her beauty and her hidden identity. He wanted to become the emperor's son-in-law....Looking at He Honglian's corpse, Bai Ling sighed deeply.

As the saying goes, a single misstep can lead to utter ruin. Making this young man an enemy was the biggest mistake he ever made.

But regret is useless now, everything is too late. All I can do is slowly close my eyes.

Zu Fangkuai wanted to say something more, but before he could speak, Ye Bufan's dragon tooth had already swept across his neck, and a head flew high into the air.

In the blink of an eye, the three betrayers who had defected from the Liu Guang Jian Zong all died on the spot, their blood serving as a sacrifice to Gong Qingxuan's spirit.

Ye Bufan once again used the Refining Demon Bottle to take away the two people's souls, then waved his hand, letting Jin Meier and the others all retreat.

In the vast hall, he was alone, with only the solitary spirit tablet before him.

"Master, it's my fault that I implicated you!"

Ye Bufan simply knelt before the spirit tablet, tears streaming down his face uncontrollably.

If it weren't for him, the people from the Three Heavenly Domains wouldn't have come to Liuguang Sword Sect, and Gong Qingxuan wouldn't have fallen.

At this moment, images of Gong Qingxuan, Yu Hualing, and Yu Huafen constantly flickered in his mind.

Although it is now known that the Rain Flower Sisters are all incarnations of Gong Qingxuan, the three leave distinct impressions in his heart.

"Ye Bufan is my own disciple. He killed your son, which means your son deserved it. He killed your grandson, which means your grandson deserved it. There's nothing to complain about!"

"Young Master, you said before that if I'm in danger, you would do everything you could to save me, right"

That's it. I will also do my best to protect you. With me here, no one can hurt you!

"Brother-in-law, you should keep it. I miss my sister a bit, I'm going to go find her. I can help block these bastards for you on the way."

Recalling bits and pieces of the past, his tears flowed even more uncontrollably.

After a long while, he slowly stood up, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and took out Hu Bingyu's storage ring.

Ye Bufan's hands trembled slightly, wondering what his master had left him.

After a brief pause, he swept his consciousness into the ring, and then a fist-sized stone appeared before his eyes.

"Shadow Stone!"

Looking at this stone, Ye Bufan's heart moved. It seemed that Master had made preparations in advance and left him a message.

Reaching out and lightly touching the stone, a light and shadow instantly appeared before his eyes, it was Gong Qingxuan. However, she wasn't wearing her mask this time, nor was she as serious as usual. Instead, she seemed as lively as Yu Hualing.

"Little one, should I call you my disciple, brother-in-law, or young master"

Gong Qingxuan let out a series of giggles as she spoke. Ye Bufan, however, felt his heart aching at her words, and the tears he had just stopped welling up again.

"Little one, did you cry I tell you not to cry first, there will be a surprise for you later."

The Shadow Jade is an image left behind by Gong Qingxuan. It cannot communicate, but it seems to be able to perceive everything about Ye Bufan, knowing his reactions as if they were on display.

Ye Bufan raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corner of his eye. Facing Gong Qingxuan without a mask, his mood was extremely complex.

Although she knew this was her own master, the impression Rainhua Ling and Rainhua Fei left on her was too deep to shake off in her heart.

Gong Qingxuan smiled brightly and continued, “I guess you have a lot of questions for me, so I'll answer them one by one.”

"Before that, Yuhua Ling and Yuhua Fei were both my avatars created to better protect you."

This answer Ye Bufan already knew, but he still felt puzzled.

He also has avatars, even some at a very high level, like the Three Pure Ones.

But avatars have their own limitations. In general, it is impossible for them to have flesh and blood, let alone a soul, but the previous Rainflower Spirit and Rainflower Flying were obviously not.

He was a doctor, and he could clearly feel that the other person was not an energy body or a soul body, but a living human being.

Gong Qingxuan continued, "Are you surprised by my avatar Let me tell you, this is my unique secret skill, an externalized incarnation."

Although it's an avatar, it's formed from my own essence blood. Not only does it have a physical body, but it can also condense a primordial spirit. Moreover, it has its own thoughts and the ability to act.

This is a body-splitting technique passed down from ancient times. Its advantage is that no one can detect it, but its disadvantage is that its power is somewhat lower than the original body.

And once a clone falls, it will inflict some damage on the main body. The extent of the damage depends on the amount of essence blood used.

"This…"

Ye Bufan had solved the mystery in his heart, but a new layer of mist rose in his eyes.

Both Yuhua Ling and Yuhua Fei revealed that their primordial spirits protect them, which shows how deeply their master cares for them.

If it weren't for the consumption of these two avatars, perhaps this wouldn't have ended in their demise.

"What's wrong Are you going to cry again"

Gong Qingxuan smiled and said, "Those two avatars were not highly cultivated. They did not consume much of my essence blood, and their impact on my cultivation and combat power was minimal."

"Uh!"

Ye Bufan was speechless for a moment. This master was truly too shrewd. Although he was just an image left behind, he grasped Ye Bufan's every move perfectly.

"There are two messages to tell you, one good and one bad. Which one do you want to hear first"

Gong Qingxuan also knew she wouldn't get an answer from him, and said to herself, "I guess you must hear the good news first, so let me tell you this. It's also the surprise I mentioned just now that I want to give you."

Ye Bufan's expression was calm. His master's death was a huge blow, and at this moment, nothing could make him happy.

Gong Qingxuan smiled and said, "The surprise I have for you is that, in fact, I am not dead!"

"What"

Upon hearing this, Ye Bufan instantly felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his expression becoming extremely complex.

"Really Master, is this really true You're not lying to me, are you"

A string of questions poured out, only then did I realize that the other party was just an image left behind, incapable of communicating with me.

Gong Qingxuan's expression faltered for a moment, "How should I say this... the Master you see in your eyes is dead, but in fact, I am not."

"This…"

Ye Bufan was completely baffled, utterly confused about what was going on.

What does it mean to be dead but not dead Is this death or life

Gong Qingxuan said, "Because the one you met before was also just a clone of me."

"What Another clone"

Although he had been shocked repeatedly, Ye Bufan at this moment was still stunned.

The master who taught him the skill of "Flowing Light and Shadow" and the sword technique "Flowing Light Sword" turned out to be just a clone!

The headmaster of Liuguangjian Sect, it turned out, was just a clone!

A mere avatar, a peak Immortal King, was able to hold back the mighty from the three heavens outside the sect alone!

This message was too shocking for him. Just now, Gong Qingxuan had said clearly that the strength of the avatar created by the external incarnation would be reduced.

If even the avatars are so powerful, what about the main body

"Master, who is your true form, and where are you now"

After Ye Bufan finished speaking, he realized he had asked the wrong question again.octor Ye!"Ye Bufan followed behind and walked in. After entering, he was slightly stunned.In the room stood a tall and graceful woman. Her long black hair was adorned with white silk, and her exquisit...
