Chapter 232
"Stop! Listen to me."

Hua Qingkong wanted to continue talking, but was interrupted directly by Liu Ping.

Liu Ping sighed and said, "Although we have received you, the current situation is not optimistic."

Hua Qingkong showed the color of listening.

Liu Ping patted Norton on the shoulder, and continued: "Right now we must divide our troops into two groups."

"Why?" Norton asked.

"Because I still have a very important task here, and only Hua Qingkong can complete this task with me."

Liu Ping looked not far away.

The two bugs flew forward, and together blocked the swarm's pursuit for Libertas.

Libertas jumped and landed in front of the three of them.

He glanced at Liu Ping, then at Hua Qingkong, and asked puzzledly:
"Aren't you going with us?"

"Yes," Liu Ping answered, "This matter is very important, you evacuate first, once we complete the task, we will go to you."

Norton and Libertas looked at each other, and then at Hua Qingkong.

Hua Qingkong did not speak, but lowered her head, still listening silently.

The two thought of one thing at the same time.

Should it be—

This man and woman—

"It sounds like something is wrong, but this is Yongye, you guys have to remember, there are too many secrets here, and there is one thing I can't say." Liu Ping said.

"Okay, you take this." Norton handed a card to Liu Ping.

"What is this?" Liu Ping asked.

"My contact card, through it, you will find where we are."

"Okay, let's go first."

"The bugs here—"

"It's okay, leave it to me." Liu Ping said.

Norton nodded, stood beside Libertas, and drew out a card.

"Listen, although I don't know where we will be teleported, it shouldn't be too dangerous, because this card has some blessing power." Norton said to Libertas.

"Really? Then I wish you good luck too." Liu Ping interjected.

Hua Qingkong continued to listen.

"Let's go. If you really have something to do, you don't have to hurry. We will wait for you." Libertas said meaningfully.

"Okay." Liu Ping smiled.

Norton threw the card.

Bang!
He and Libertas disappeared from the spot.

—no one knows where they went.

Even they themselves do not know.

Liu Ping heaved a sigh of relief, and murmured: "Finally gone, I've lived up to my words—what do you think?"

Hua Qingkong listened carefully, but didn't answer.

Liu Ping looked at the swarm of worms and said loudly: "Okay, let's go all out to kill all the worms here."

Snapped!
The icy worm was shot into a blood splatter by the poisonous stings fired by a group of companions.

Liu Ping pressed his hand on the floating card book.

"Lilith," he called.

"Liu Ping, choose one yourself." Lilith's voice sounded from the card book.

"The leader who injured the giant monster worm before, it is the most powerful, it is it." Liu Ping said.

Among the swarms.

A bug corpse lying on the ground suddenly flew up, waving its sharp arms in the air, and sliced ​​each bug into several pieces.

in the void.

Lines of burning small characters emerged:
"You spent 9 points of soul power to activate the 'Death Puppet'."

9 points of soul power.

This is only 1 soul power less than that giant bug.

Liu Ping looked up.

I saw the worm shuttle back and forth on the battlefield, its sharp worm limbs waved continuously, cutting off the bodies of countless worms.

"This one is very rare, Liu Ping." Lilith said.

"This is just right, I need it to help me accumulate some soul power." Liu Ping said.

"Why do you need so much soul power? Isn't the upper limit of soul power related to the level?" Lilith asked.

"I can use soul power to improve my strength." Liu Ping said.

"Wow, so powerful? How much soul power is missing?" Lilith asked.

Liu Ping glanced at the void.

"About another 200 points of soul power is basically enough." He said seriously.

Blossoms of soft and warm holy awns were swayed by him and fell into the sea of ​​insects, healing the wounds of the dying insects.

Soul power began to skyrocket.

"Frankly speaking, I didn't expect such a scene, but fortunately, there is still a little hope, that is, at level 10, the card master will meet the first node. I hope that at level 10, there will be a turning point."

Liu Pingxu chattered.

Hua Qingkong stood aside, silently listening to every word he said.

time flies.

I don't know how many bug dolls have been replaced.

I don't know how long the battle lasted.

at last.

All the bugs are dead.

— Only the giant worm and two flying insects remained.

Liu Ping waved lightly.

With three sounds in a row, the bugs turned into black cards and landed in his hand.

Burning small characters quietly surfaced:
"According to the three-point upgrade method, the soul power you get is converted into experience points, and the percentage is:"

"130%."

"You can start upgrading at any time."

Liu Ping glanced at it, and said, "I would probably find it very interesting at other times, and I can't wait to see what the so-called card master's strength node is all about."

"But now—"

He walked up to Hua Qingkong, gently hugged her, and said:

"Sorry, we came a little late and made this a trap."

His tone was a little annoyed and a little disappointed.

Hua Qingkong listened silently.

Liu Ping sighed, stepped forward, and walked towards the wind and snow.

"Are you cold?"

"Libertas and I could have come earlier, but we encountered too many things along the way."

"Now I'm free, so I'll tell you slowly."

……

Liu Ping talked all the way.

He recounted many things that had happened to him before.

Hua Qingkong listened carefully.

The two walked for most of the day, and Liu Ping also talked about what happened for most of the day.

a moment.

He suddenly felt something, and put down Hua Qingkong.

"Don't move around here, I'll go to the front to have a look - there seems to be something wrong in the front."

After Liu Ping finished speaking, he walked towards the wind and snow in front of the road.

He walked in the thick snow with one foot deep and the other shallow, and kept saying:
"Going forward is the ruins of the Kingdom of Ceylon, which is our destination, but I haven't figured out how to do it yet."

After counting interest.

He has come a considerable distance.

suddenly.

A dull voice came from the wind and snow: "I finally found you."

Liu Ping put on a defensive posture and shouted: "Who is it!"

Behind Hua Qingkong, a figure quietly appeared.

It was a brawny man with a bare chest.

He carried a pair of fist blades in both hands, exuding majestic power all over his body.

"Don't move, brat, or I'll kill your companion."

The strong man said lazily.

The sharp fist blade touched Hua Qingkong's neck.

Hua Qingkong glanced down, but didn't respond for a while.

"Don't touch her, who are you?"

Liu Ping asked.

"I am Boxing Demon, I have just exited the mechanical city, so I can freely come to the restricted area and hunt you and your companions here." The brawny man said.

"What do you want?" Liu Ping asked.

The strong man stretched out his other hand and patted a card book.

Bang!
A pair of shackles flew out immediately and landed in front of Liu Ping.

"If you don't want your companion to die, put on the shackles, and then we'll talk about the rest." The strong man said.

"Is it for the restricted zone pass?" Liu Ping asked.

"Of course, impulsive brats like you will have to pay the price." The brawny man said.

"Let me give you a suggestion - I have a very serious matter to deal with now, can you come to me later?"

Liu Ping said seriously, trying to make a sincere expression.

The strong man stretched out his hand, grabbed Hua Qingkong's head, and lifted her up.

The sharp fist blade pressed against her back.

"Stop talking nonsense, I'll give you the last five seconds, or I'll kill this chick, and then I'll kill you!" the brawny man said fiercely.

Liu Ping glanced at Hua Qingkong, then at the strong man.

He sighed helplessly, and—

Close your mouth.

From the time Libertas and Norton left until now, he finally stopped talking.

opposite.

The strong man began to count:
"five,"

"Four,"

"three,"

"two,"

"one!"

Liu Ping still remained silent, and even retreated a little further.

With a sarcasm on Fist Demon's face, he said, "I heard that you took that restricted area pass to save people, and I thought you were a decent person, but who knew that you just let your own woman die like that."

"Forget it, it's not fun, I'm going to kill this chick in front of you!"

He swung his fist and stabbed at Hua Qingkong's heart.

Abrupt mutation!

Suddenly, dense slender and sharp limbs popped out of Hua Qingkong's body, instantly piercing through Boxer, flying him into mid-air, all the limbs turned into chaotic afterimages and twisted lightly, directly smashing Boxer It twisted into a swirling blood mist.

"laugh--"

Hua Qingkong chuckled lightly, a faint glow of blood radiated from her pupils, and looked up at the blood mist flying in the wind and snow.

"Stop! Listen to me."

Liu Ping said.

A stern gust of wind hit him, causing his clothes to flutter, and he almost flew up——

"We have to continue our topic. As for this person, I have indeed found that he is nearby, so I left you for the time being."

Liu Ping said.

At some point, Hua Qingkong was already standing in front of him, the sharp limbs raised from behind could pierce Liu Ping's body only a few inches away.

Liu Ping's expression remained unchanged, and he continued to talk:

"Think about it, I'll take you all the way, so I don't have the energy to deal with him, so I just hope that he is a lazy person, or a little psychopathic, trying to catch you and threaten me."

The crimson color in Hua Qingkong's pupils gradually faded.

She once again showed an air of listening.

"Oh... I'm late."

Liu Ping sighed.

Behind Hua Qingkong, all the limbs gradually retracted.

She once again turned into an image of a good girl who was harmless to humans and animals, standing where she was, silently listening to Liu Ping's narration.

Liu Pingdao: "The emperor of the empire is also in the same situation, but I guess this is not a hopeless situation. There must be a way to save you from this monster."

He stared at Hua Qingkong.

I saw two lines of small characters floating above Hua Qingkong's head:
"Parasitic body, prisoner."

"—From what happened to her, we can know that in the prison room of the Kingdom of Ceylon, there is not only one corpse insect controlled by the prisoner."

Liu Ping sighed.

On the other side of the void, lines of burning small characters floated motionless:
"You launched 'Scene Stalker' again."

"The parasite will continue to listen to you until you shut up and end the performance."

Liu Ping shook his head, and hugged Hua Qingkong.

"Although the prisoner is very powerful, I was also the master of the devil way back then."

"Compared to the prisoner, I, the master of magic, seem to be countless levels behind—"

He rambled on.

"It's really frustrating, and to be honest, I'm a little bit lost."

"But there is no doubt about one thing."

"As long as I live, I will never give up on you."

"We'll win."

"I know that at times like this, it doesn't seem convincing to say such things."

"But life is always so hopeless—"

"I have to cheer myself on."

"Let's go, we're almost there."

Hua Qingkong was in his arms, silently listening to his every word.

Liu Ping walked into the wind and snow step by step.
