Tragic death in the previous life: After rebirth, the sickly prince pampers her every night

Chapter 2782 Xiaoman (Universal Talisman)

Originally, she was certain that after Hu Xiaoman was dragged into the lava river by the fire dragon, he would die and have no chance of survival.

But I never expected that she was still alive!

Chu Ran's gaze quickly moved away from Hu Xiaoman's face, and he began to look around impatiently.

I saw that the bottom of the lava river was surrounded by extremely thick pillars of fire.

These pillars of fire are like fountains from hell, continuously spewing out hot and boiling lava sparks.

However, the area where they were located seemed to be surrounded by some kind of barrier.

The gushing magma sparks were blocked outside by an invisible force the moment they touched the barrier, and could not cause any harm to the people inside.

Just when Chu Ran was secretly rejoicing and calming down, a face completely enveloped in flames and filled with surging flames suddenly appeared in her sight.

The sinister sneer on that face made Chu Ran feel an unprecedented sense of terror and palpitations.

"what!"

Chu Ran screamed in fear, his legs went weak, and he frantically used his hands and feet to support himself on the ground, desperately taking several steps back, looking extremely embarrassed.

Her funny and panic-stricken appearance successfully made Hu Xiaoman burst into laughter.

The laughter echoed in this hot space, adding a different meaning.

Chu Ran also realized that he had behaved ugly in front of Hu Xiaoman, and he immediately became angry and clenched his fists in anger.

Her eyes were filled with fear and confusion as they fell on Hu Xiaoman's face.

"What's so funny?"

"Hu Xiaoman, you are just like me, tied up here and unable to move!"

In her heart, at least she has not yet been tied up by this weird old man with a fiery face and a devil-like look.

In comparison, he seems to be a little stronger than Hu Xiaoman.

However, before her voice faded away, the ghostly old man swung his hand violently.

In an instant, a ray of flame intertwined with black flame and blazing fire spurted out from his fingertips, twisting and turning in the air, instantly wrapping around Chu Ran's body, binding him tightly to a fiery and hot incendiary pillar that emitted billowing heat waves.

Chu Ran was horrified. The talisman in his body that was originally used to protect himself instantly lost its effectiveness at this moment.

A piercing burning sensation instantly swept through his body. A sizzling sound like barbecue came from his back, and a burnt smell gradually filled the air.

"what!"

Chu Ran screamed miserably.

She quickly closed her eyes and muttered something, then saw several talismans flying out from the storage ring in her hand.

These talismans were accurately affixed to her body.

As the talisman was absorbed, the painful expression on Chu Ran's face gradually eased.

Just at the moment when those talismans flew out of Chu Ran's ring, Hu Xiaoman's attention was attracted by those talismans.

She stared at the talismans without blinking.

After seeing the appearance of the talismans clearly, she murmured to herself, "Universal Talisman?"

"Could this be the kind of talisman I saw in the talisman book, which can change into any kind of talisman at will according to the owner's wishes?"

"This kind of talisman is extremely precious, and only a cultivation level above the Divine Transformation level can be drawn."

"It is difficult to improve one's own cultivation level, and there are only a handful of people who can reach that level."

"How come Chu Ran has the Universal Talisman?"

I don’t know how many such talismans are hidden in Chu Ran’s storage ring.

At this time, all of Hu Xiaoman's consciousness was immersed in deep thinking about the Universal Talisman.

On the other side, Chu Ran was already completely overwhelmed by fear, and his body was shaking involuntarily with panic.

Because, at this moment, the ghostly old man "whoosh" and instantly stood in front of her.

The face formed by flames looked even more hideous and terrifying against the backdrop of the blazing flames.

His face revealed a greed so intense that it almost overflowed.

That look was like a hungry wolf seeing prey that it had not eaten for a long time, full of desire.

"I never thought that two more little kids would come to my doorstep."

The ghostly old man licked his lips, which were red from the flames.

"You are quite interesting, little kid. You actually have dual spiritual roots."

He narrowed his eyes slightly and continued, "And they have already cultivated to the middle stage of the Golden Core."

"Not bad, not bad. He's a talented person. He's much better than that useless loser over there."

As soon as he finished speaking, the ghostly old man stuck out his tongue again and slowly licked his lips, as if he couldn't wait to taste the "delicious" thing in front of him.

Then he burst into wild laughter.

"Although you don't have many spiritual roots, each one of them contains rich spiritual energy, which is much more delicious than the spiritual roots of that useless person over there."

"Then I'll start with you and see what your spiritual roots are like!"

Although Hu Xiaoman has always been open-minded, she still felt a little unhappy when someone called her a waste so ruthlessly.

However, when he heard that the ghostly old man was planning to attack Chu Ran first, that trace of dissatisfaction instantly disappeared.

She secretly rejoiced in her heart, thinking being called a waste didn't seem to be a big deal.

Thinking of this, Hu Xiaoman showed a sly smile on his face and nodded without hesitation.

But when Chu Ran opened his mouth to argue and wanted to draw the fire of the ghostly old man to himself, Hu Xiaoman spoke up quickly.

"Your Majesty, you are absolutely right."

"For someone like me who only has nine spiritual roots but none of them have made any progress or improvement, and whose cultivation is only at the late stage of Qi Refining, eating me is completely useless and won't provide much help."

As she spoke, she glanced at Chu Ran out of the corner of her eye, and the smile on her lips became more and more intense.

"But Chu Ran is different. She is the princess of the Chu Kingdom."

"Since childhood, he has lived a life of luxury and comfort, with countless and endless cultivation resources."

"With such unique conditions, her spiritual roots are naturally more delicious and full of spiritual energy than mine, a useless waste who has accomplished nothing."

At this point, Hu Xiaoman raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a slightly sarcastic smile, and continued to add fuel to the fire, "Your Excellency Ghost, what are you waiting for?"

"Hurry up and dig out her spiritual roots so that we can have a good taste of them!"

Chu Ran screamed angrily: "Hu Xiaoman, you are so despicable!"

At this time, the ghostly old man seemed to be very pleased with Hu Xiaoman's words. He slowly turned around and looked at Hu Xiaoman with interest.

"I called you a waste, and you're not angry at all?"

He narrowed his eyes slightly, with a probing light in his eyes, and asked curiously.
