Heaven's Formula

Goldman Sachs was slightly taken aback.

"What did you say—"

Before the words were finished, a black arrow was shot from the front!Its speed is as fast as a dark light!

After all, he is also an alchemist at the level of Yuyi. Even in the face of such a fast arrow shadow, he still drives his body to respond, changing the direction of the sword of authority, and slashing straight at the black arrow.This is a traceable blow. Once the arrow hits, no matter who the attacker is, he will suffer heavy damage!

But just as he focused all his attention on the black arrow, a sound-absorbing projectile had already penetrated into his body from the side without a sound.

The huge kinetic energy instantly tore his ribs and internal organs, and the spinning projectile swept across his abdomen, and then drilled out from the other side, twisting the middle of his body into a ball of flesh!

In the eyes of outsiders, the angel's body seemed to be swept away by a huge axe, and his body was almost broken in two, leaving only some flesh and blood connected.

His ambition and scheming disappeared at this moment.

why?

Goldman's upper body fell in front of Chu Pu, his mind was full of doubts.

Another reason why he chose Chu Pu is that she has outstanding ability, but she is too young and lacks foundation.Her confidants and bodyguards are just the younger generation in the Privy Council, and their grades are only at the level of asking questions, so they are not worth mentioning at all. How could they give themselves a fatal blow in the occasion of the seven-star envoy's duel?

What's more, he also bought two cronies of the other party, and repeatedly confirmed their schedule.

But Goldman couldn't wait for an answer.

Qi was rapidly passing through him, and the coldness before death engulfed his consciousness little by little.

At this time, a person slipped from the top of the beam, and rushed to envoy Yuheng in three steps at a time, "Hey, are you okay?"

Chu Pu looked at this person, and found that the other person was actually a Qianqian woman, "It seems...you are the shadow Master Xia said."

The scene of parting with Xia Fan came to her mind again - she declined the other party's offer of help at that time, just because she didn't want the Privy Council to mistakenly think that she had completely surrendered to Qiguo, but Xia Fan gave her a special drink , quietly entraining a note.The above content is very simple, that is, he will send a shadow to protect himself secretly.If there is no danger, it can be regarded as the shadow does not exist, and if it is really difficult, the shadow is the hole card she can rely on.

At the end of the note, it also said that this arrangement will still respect her decision. If she doesn't need a shadow, she can just dye the note black with ink and discard it.After the shadow sees it, it will leave the mission on its own.

At that time, Chu Pu didn't know what considerations he had, so he finally left the note and carried it close to his body all the way, while concealing the news.Not only did her personal guards not know about it, even Chu Pu himself saw the shadow's real body for the first time today.

On the way back, neither of them exchanged a word.

But at this most critical moment, Chu Pu decided to trust Xia Fan.

This is a hole card of "non-existence", and it is precisely because it does not exist that it can override the calculations of the conspirators.

Chapter 9 and Six: The End of the War

"It's me, you can also call me Linglong." Yu Linglong helped Chu Pu up, and couldn't help frowning—this sword was definitely not an illusion, but actually pierced her back, and the blood oozing not only Wet the clothes and stained a large area of ​​the ground red. "Your injury..."

"It's serious, but I won't die." She took a breath and leaned against Yu Linglong's arms, so that the latter's body tightened slightly.After all, before leaving, Xia Fan had told her not to reveal her true gender, so as not to arouse envoy Yuheng's resentment, so she could only pretend to be nonchalant and hold him gently.

"I have a healing talisman in my pocket, please help me get it."

Yu Linglong followed her advice.

I saw Chu Pu holding the corner of the talisman with his bloody lips, and began to cast the redemption technique.After a while, although half of her body was still paralyzed, the bleeding condition improved obviously.

This also made Yu Linglong secretly surprised at her talent.

You must know that Duishu and Kanshu are almost completely opposite hexagrams. Even a Jinxia alchemist who has received a complete and popular education can hardly make achievements in both fields at the same time, but a person from Xu State can do this. Her The talent is probably even higher than that of Luo Qingqing, who is also a genius.

"...Is it necessary to do this?"

Yu Linglong asked after she finished performing the spell.

Spinal nerves control body movements and tactile feedback, and even if it is cured, it is easy to leave sequelae.Envoy Yuheng may have saved her life, but she will always be limited by this severe injury in the future, and it will be difficult for her athletic ability to reach its current peak.

"If you don't use yourself as bait, how can you catch a real big fish." Chu Pu smiled, "You have also seen that a hunter will only show his flaws when he is close to the prey with all his heart. If not, you It is not that simple to kill a seven-star envoy."

Yu Linglong admits to this point.

However, she is also sure that even if the opponent is prepared in advance, as long as she does not escape from this hall, she will kill him sooner or later.This self-confidence stems from five years of painstaking cultivation and the improvement of weapons. During the Battle of Rising Sun Mountain, Yu Linglong felt her own powerlessness for the first time. Facing the overwhelming enemy of chaos, all she could do was escape. , there is no room to help Xia Fan.So after returning to Jinxia, ​​she signed up for a rare adult school, concentrated on studying those courses that made people drowsy at first glance, and sincerely asked Mo Yun to build a special weapon for her.

Now the shadow has become a tool for luring the enemy, and she uses the electromagnetic gun with the Sunda muffler to wander around the periphery, looking for opportunities for fatal blows.Although the black arrow is weird and its path changes are unpredictable, its power is really not satisfactory. After switching to the enhanced electromagnetic gun, she has never seen an alchemist who can dodge bullets.

"You are relaxed. Have you ever thought about what happened to me?" Someone suddenly muttered.

The shadow came from a corner of the hall, and a huge crack almost tore his shoulders, extending all the way to his waist.For an ordinary person, this kind of injury would have killed him long ago.

That was obviously caused by the sword of authority.

"You're not going to die, why are you yelling?" Yu Linglong said indifferently.

"You—" Shadow said impatiently, "I'm not an illusion, I'm a living individual with emotions! Don't forget how you begged me to send you information when you were being corrupted!"

"You also know that it was an erosion period, and I'm fine now." Yu Linglong picked out her ears.

"..." Shadow was choked by this answer.

"Uh...is there anyone else in the hall?" Chu Pu noticed her abnormality.

"No, don't worry about it, I'm just in a daze." Yu Linglong waved her hand and drove the shadow away, "You said before that we would come here because of the fairy art field, but you can't actually confirm that we will come here. situation, right?"

Chu Pu nodded weakly, "The domain focuses on guidance, not control. I can create real body projections to expand my perception range, but as you can see, this kind of projection consumes a lot of gas, and I have to use most of the Only by placing the projections near you can we be sure to block the attacks of these people."

"So that's the case... But I'm still a little puzzled," Yu Linglong asked again, "When His Majesty stepped onto the platform, I didn't realize that it was just an illusion, no matter how she behaved, she seemed to be real. I am very familiar with His Majesty, it is impossible not to distinguish the difference between an illusion and a real person, how did this happen?"

Especially the sentence asking about Xia Fan's recent situation was simply the attitude Ning Wanjun would have, she couldn't see any flaws at all.

The so-called Kanshu is in the final analysis the interpretation of the caster, and the new Yuheng Envoy has no chance to understand the Queen of Qi Kingdom at all, so how can it be possible to forge an illusion that is almost real?

Chu Pu raised the corner of his mouth.

"Because...that's true."

Yu Linglong was stunned, but Shadow had already called out.

"It's impossible! I've been staring at the main hall. Apart from the dead, there are only three of you, me, and her. There will never be another person! She's lying!"

"I... don't understand." Yu Linglong shook her head in confusion.

"As I said, today is the surrender day." Chu Pu turned his gaze towards the entrance of the main hall, "You will understand when you open that door."

Yu Linglong looked in the direction of the gate suspiciously, then stood up and walked forward, "Shadow, help me keep an eye on her."

The door was very thick, second only to the city gate in size, but it was not locked.She took a deep breath and slowly pushed the door open.

With the sound of rough friction, the door slowly slid open to both sides, and bright sunlight flooded in, illuminating her figure.At the same time, there were noisy noises pouring in.

This silent world seemed to be broken.

After pushing the door open, Yu Linglong stared wide-eyed and froze in place.This hall actually stands on the towering east wall of Yongding City!Below is the familiar surrender scene - the open space outside the city was surrounded by spectators, Qiguo Guards formed a tight defense wall on the east side, and the banners fluttering in the wind could not be seen to the end at a glance.On the high platform in the middle of the open space, representatives of the Seven Stars Privy Council and Ning Wanjun sat opposite each other, and whoever was the leader was not Yuhengshi! ?

Chu Pu stood up and handed the sealed scroll to Her Majesty, "From today onwards, the Qixing Privy Council will be disbanded, and this letter is a proof! Everyone in the Xu Kingdom is His Majesty's people and is willing to be loyal to His Majesty." !"

Ning Wanjun took the scroll and held it up high, "Accept your surrender alone, and promise to treat all people outside the Qi Kingdom equally, without prejudice, and the heavens will attest to this! The war is over!"

Hearing the last sentence, the crowd erupted, and the people of Yongding City chanted His Majesty's name, celebrating the end of this war.

Chapter 9 Chapter Seven

Yu Linglong looked back at Chu Pu in disbelief, she couldn't tell which side was the real thing.

"Either side is true." Yuheng envoy took a breath, "I just created two identical areas. In this area, those who are hostile to me and Ning Wanjun, and those who want to help My people will be led to this hall; those who have no knowledge of the conspiracy will go to the outskirts of the East City normally. were separated under the circumstances."

She paused, "As I said, it's both a mask...and not a mask."

Even Yu Linglong felt a bit shocked when she heard this.

"Illusion and reality are moving in parallel"—this sentence came to mind again, but this time, she had a new understanding of the word parallel.

It is precisely because Ning Wanjun stepped onto the surrender platform that it was a real scene, so that Yuyi and Qingjian are all lost in it.

No wonder envoy Yuheng is the head of the seven stars.

Compared with this ability, the sword of authority that determines the life and death of others and the invisibility of both offense and defense are indeed inferior.

If it weren't for the Apocalypse Army's detection methods that don't rely on humans at all, the contest between the two sides may still be hard to say.

"Can I trouble you to take me down the tower?" Chu Pu said in a low voice, "My people are waiting outside the east city, and as soon as they get there, they will take over the rest."

Obviously, envoy Yuheng did not reveal his plan to his cronies.

This has to be said to be a kind of irony. In the base camp of Yongding City, facing the enemies behind the scenes, the only person she can trust besides herself is an alchemist from the former enemy country.

Naturally, Yu Linglong would not shirk.

She picked up Chu Pu and walked slowly towards the steps of the city wall.

"Please tell Lord Xia that what I promised has been fulfilled, and I hope he will abide by the agreement and let Xu's alchemists join the war." Chu Pu's voice became softer, "After the injury is healed, I will go to Shangyuan City to plead guilty." .”

"Apologize?" Yu Linglong asked suspiciously.

"Someone has to be responsible for this war... Since I am Yuheng envoy, I have to take this responsibility."

"Did he mention this when you discussed the agreement with Xia Fan?"

Chu Pu hesitated, "No."

"That's fine." She shrugged disapprovingly, "That guy won't just find a scapegoat. Even if you want to plead guilty, no one will answer you. But you still have to go to Qiguo, and the Great Migration will definitely include the other five. within the country."

"That rascal?"

"Ahem, you heard me wrong, I was talking about Master Xia." Yu Linglong cleared her throat, "Anyway, you can concentrate on healing your injuries, and I will still protect you in secret during this time."

Chu Pu still wanted to ask other questions, such as what the Great Migration was, but at this moment the guards guarding the gate of the city had noticed the two people covered in blood, and in a blink of an eye, several cronies rushed over.

"My lord, what happened!?"

"You...are injured! Hey, go to the doctor!"

"Who is this person!?"

Some people pointed their swords at Yu Linglong.

"She is my friend, let her go, she has nothing to do with this matter." Chu Pu said weakly.

Doubts turned into doubts, the guards still obeyed the order of Yuheng envoy - they found a stretcher, carried Yuheng envoy and ran towards the Privy Council.

When they parted, Yu Linglong saw the other party move his lips towards her.

That's the word "thank you".

"It's a pity." Shadow emerged from her side.

"What a pity?" Yu Linglong frowned.

"The inheritance of Envoy Yuheng. If you did something just now, she couldn't even do the most basic resistance." Shadow rubbed his chin with a look of emotion, "Anyway, the surrender agreement has been signed, Xia Fan's goal has been achieved, you This is the end of her mission. As for her serious injuries, it is reasonable to die at the hands of the Celestial Envoy. And there is an inheritance magic weapon in the Privy Council of Yongding City, as long as you sneak in with her soul, you will jump Going above Yuromo, no... even going one step further—”

Yu Linglong split Shadow's forehead in half with a blow of the hand knife.

"I'm doing it for your own good!" Shadow stretched out his hand and put his head back together again, "Don't you want to become stronger?"

"But not in this way." Yu Linglong gave her partner a blank look.

"That's not what you used to be," muttered Shadow.

She knew that the other party was referring to the time when she first entered the Privy Council.

At that time, she hadn't become a core member yet, and she wasn't the "projection" that everyone was afraid of. She was willing to do anything in order to become stronger.

But since joining Jinxia's side with Yan Qing, this state of mind has changed.

In the past seven years, her heart has softened a lot.

It's just that Yu Linglong doesn't reject this change.

Just as she no longer uses the name Sheying.

"Okay, let's go."

"Don't think about it?"

"I'll go to Chunlou if you talk too much, and I'll replace you. I don't know who was the guy who was so stiff that he couldn't breathe last time."

"you dare!"

"Ok?"

"No...it's nothing, I just don't mention it." Shadow closed his mouth honestly.It knows that it is by no means within the scope of the other party's soft treatment.

……

Two days later, Yongding City has been fully taken over by Qi Guo.The dissolution of the Privy Council did not bring any confusion to the city. After all, the army already had too much experience in this field—the reserve officials who acted with the army quickly formed a temporary affairs bureau and declared the city to enter a week-long martial law State, while ensuring the fair supply of food, started the mopping up work against the underworld forces.

The people were a little panicked at first, but when they saw that the Apocalypse Army did not offend the people at all, and the targets were very precisely targeted at those notorious local ruffians and bullies who caused disasters everywhere, their worries gradually turned into applause and praise.

In the depths of the palace, a rare visitor was also ushered in.

Ning Wanjun walked through layers of courtyard walls and came to a deserted palace.Although the Seven Star Privy Council had replaced the royal court a long time ago and became the only person in power in Xu State, they did not choose to drive out the descendants of the royal family, but kept them in captivity.Later, a full-scale war broke out between Qiguo and Qixing, and refugees from other countries continued to flee to Yongding City, and this place became a refuge for down-and-out nobles and high-ranking officials.Of course, the Privy Council doesn’t take these people too seriously, and it’s the utmost benevolence to live in a house. As for a comfortable and luxurious life, don’t even think about it. This can be done from the rotten leaves piled up on the ground in front of the palace. see.
