"You actually did it, Bai Chu." Su Xing exclaimed sincerely: "Under such a huge disparity in power, a tiny hope can spark endless vitality and turn all the impossible into possible. This is... the power of a tenacious heart!"

As the arrogant figure of the decisive weapon disappeared, the prince finally bent his spine and knelt on the ground in despair, with a line of blood oozing from the corner of his mouth: "Bai Chu, you won, kill me."

Bai Chu put away the duel disk with an indifferent expression and walked towards the prince step by step. The heavy footsteps seemed like a death knell announcing the end of the prince's life.

"Bai Chu, I haven't fallen yet. If you want to hurt the prince, you have to step over my dead body first!"

Li Qian opened her arms to block between Bai Zhu and the prince, and shouted: "Prince, don't you have the forced dimensional escape device given to you by the Holy Emperor? Hurry up and leave! I will cover you."

"Li Qian, how could I leave you alone and run away? You underestimate me too much."

The prince took out a mechanical device shaped like a pocket watch from his arms and pressed the switch. Suddenly, the space around him began to distort violently, and chaotic scenes of different time and space kept flashing.

Su Xing shouted, "Oh no! He's going to escape."

The prince stuffed the pocket watch into Li Qian's hand and held her hand tightly so that she could not break free: "Li Qian, go back and tell the Holy Emperor that my ability is limited and I failed this mission. Please ask him to forgive me."

"Prince, please let go!" Li Qian almost cried and begged the prince to let go of her hand, wanting to throw away the mechanical device in his hand:

"If we're going to die, let's die together. Why are you trying to drive me away? Why should I live if you die?"

"Who said I would die?" The prince smiled weakly, "I always feel uneasy when you are by my side. You are in the way. After you are teleported away, I can let go and kill as much as I can. I don't want you to see too bloody scenes. Go back and wait for my good news."

"Prince, Prince!" Li Qian called out twice in a hurry, but her voice was gradually drowned out by the turbulence of time and space caused by the dimensional teleportation. Her body gradually became illusory and finally disappeared completely from everyone's sight.

Su Xing secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't care about Li Qian's life or death, and it wouldn't affect the overall situation. As for this prince, Su Xing wanted to tear him into pieces both publicly and privately.

After teleporting Li Qian away, the prince showed a carefree smile on his face, and said in a relaxed tone: "Bai Chu, don't say you want to kill me. I don't want to live anymore. Today, you just fulfilled my wish. Go ahead."

Bai Chu stood in front of the prince, looking into his eyes indifferently. The two of them just stood there, staring at each other for a long time.

Suddenly, Bai Chu said, "Go now."

"What!?"

Not only the prince was stunned, but Su Xing, Qin Zhen and others behind Bai Chu also screamed at the same time, not understanding why Bai Chu suddenly said this.

"Don't get me wrong. The last time you defeated me, you didn't kill me. I don't want others to say that I owe you anything, so I'll let you go this time. From now on, we're even. Also, I'll remember that you kidnapped Jiang You. If we meet again in the future, we'll fight to the death!"

"Bai Chu! He is..." Su Xing couldn't help but wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Bai Chu's wave of his hand.

"Su Xing, you used Li Qian to save Jiang You's life. I owe you a favor. Please do me another favor and let me be willful this time. From now on, as long as it is something I can do, please give me the order directly. I will not refuse."

"Since you said so, it's up to you." Su Xing shook his head. If someone asked him for a favor, he would definitely scold: Who do you think you are?

However, Bai Chu had just proved his worth, so Bai Chu’s favor was naturally priceless.

Moreover, the prince is Su Xing's mortal enemy, and Bai Chu is very clear about this. Su Xing has greatly sacrificed his own interests in order to fulfill Bai Chu's idea. So this favor cannot be offset by simply helping once, it is more precious.

"Ha, ha, ha." The prince lowered his head and laughed at himself: "You actually asked Su Xing to spare my life, Bai Chu, I knew that I had never misjudged your character. However, a soft-hearted person can't accomplish anything great. One day you will be burdened by this."

Bai Chu said impatiently: "Get out of my sight before I change my mind!"

The prince hesitated for a moment and said hesitantly: "Bai Chu...can you agree to one of my requests?"

"Prince, is this what you should say?"

The prince was silent for a long time, as if he was having difficulty speaking, but he still said with gritted teeth: "After you return to Duel Academy, can you please not tell Zhang Ji my true identity? If he asks about me, just say... that I died in another world to protect Duel Academy."

Bai Chu sarcastically said, "Why, Prince, do you know that you can't face Zhang Ji for what you did? You actually have the nerve to ask me to protect your image. If you dare to do bad things, why don't you dare to be a bad person?"

The prince nodded and said, "Zhang Ji is the person I feel most sorry for in my life. If I have the chance, I will try my best to compensate him."

Bai Chu turned and left, saying coldly: "The best compensation for us is for you to stop interfering with our lives."

The prince stood up and activated the dimensional teleportation device on the duel disk. His figure gradually became illusory: "Bai Chu, if time could flow back and everything could start over again, I would still be willing to be your brother."

Bai Chu stood there in a daze, as if petrified. Although he was the winner of the duel, there was not even a trace of a smile on his face. No one knew what he was thinking.

"Thank you both for your help. It is a blessing for our great country to have two pillars to support the collapsing building." Qin Zhen bowed to Bai Chu and Su Xing to thank them:

"My two heroes, I cannot repay your kindness. If you have any wishes, just tell me. As long as it is within my ability, no matter status, wealth, power, or beauty, I will do my best to satisfy them."

"Your Majesty, you are too kind." Su Xing was also in a good mood, and his tone was very respectful: "However, I do have a request, but it is not something worldly, and it may not be important to you. I wonder if Your Majesty has heard of a magical blank card in the world, and those who are recognized by it can realize their wishes."

"Blank card..." Qin Zhen fell into deep thought: "Now that you put it that way, it does seem to be true.

Legend has it that when my great grandfather was competing for the throne, he was given a blank card and made a wish to unify the world and reshape the country. After his wish came true, he sealed the card in the imperial seal as a national treasure, and no one has seen the card since then. "

"The imperial seal?" Su Xing frowned, thinking that this matter might be a bit difficult to handle.

"My two warriors, please don't blame me for being stingy. It's just that the imperial seal has always been a flawed jade with a missing corner. I have never seen any blank cards inside, and..." Qin Zhen sighed:

"Besides, my current identity is the Grand King, and the Imperial Seal should be in the hands of my younger brother. It is difficult for me to decide this matter, so I promise to hand over the Imperial Seal to you."

"Your Majesty, in my heart, you are the real king!"

Qin Zhen and his men were talking when they heard a mighty roar from behind. Qin Zhen turned around and saw a man holding Guo Deng's head, half kneeling on the ground: "I am Shi Xiang, and I have executed the traitor Guo Deng. I am willing to sacrifice my life and lead the army to help the king regain the throne!"

……

Supported by the rebels led by Shi Xiang, Qin Zhen and his entourage marched back to Zijin City in a mighty force, drove Qin Zhen's younger brother Qin Yu off the throne, and Qin Zhen ascended the throne as king again.

Afterwards, Qin Zhen buried Zhang Zu and Yu Man with the rites of a prince and an earl respectively, rewarded Shi Xiang greatly, and demoted a number of court officials from Qin Yu's period. Suddenly, Zijin City was in turmoil again.

However, these have nothing to do with Bai Chu and Su Xing.

Bai Cu and Su Xing still stayed in Zhang's house temporarily. They invited all the famous doctors in the surrounding area of ​​Zijin City to see Jiang You, but no one dared to prescribe medicine for Jiang You. Time passed in a flash, and it was almost a month, and Jiang You was still in a deep sleep.

Bai Chu sat in front of Jiang You's bed, looking increasingly haggard. Jiang You's breathing was always very weak, and he would mutter some unclear words from time to time. It was unknown what kind of torture his spiritual world was suffering.

"Breakfast is here." Su Xing pushed the door open, only to see the lunch that was delivered yesterday still lying on the table intact.

"What did the doctor say yesterday?"

"He said Jiang You's pulse was normal, and he was probably just asleep." Bai Chu forced a smile. "He didn't even dare to charge for the consultation. He left in a hurry after saying this."

"It's really difficult for these doctors." Su Xing sighed and said, "I guess the only way to find out the cause of Jiang You's inability to wake up is to return to our time as soon as possible and use advanced medical equipment to conduct a comprehensive examination."

Bai Chu nodded: "Is there any news from the palace?"

"No." Su Xing frowned and said, "I think Qin Zhen is busy with state affairs and has left us aside."

"Sir, Sir!" Su Xing and Bai Chu were chatting with each other when there was a hurried knock on the door. "The king sent General Shi to visit, and he is waiting for you two gentlemen in the lobby."

Su Xing asked casually: "Which General Shi?"

Bai Chu stood up and straightened his clothes: "You are asking even though you already know the answer. Who is the other General Shi?"

When Su Xing and Bai Chu had dressed up and arrived at the lobby, they saw Zhang Mao, the son of Zhang Zhu, receiving Shi Xiang. With Shi Xiang came Princess Qin Liu, who had not been seen for many days and looked as haggard as Bai Chu.

“Bai Chu…” Qin Liu stood up happily when he saw Bai Chu, but he didn’t know what to say for a moment: “Um…Is Sister Jiang awake?”

"Not yet." Bai Chu said softly, "I guess the only way to wake Jiang You up is to get what we want as soon as possible and return to our world."

"My two brave men," Shi Xiang said with a bow, "I am sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. The king needed to stabilize the situation a few days ago, and in order to avoid complications, he did not immediately hand over the imperial seal to you two. Please forgive me. Now that the overall situation has been settled, I have specially ordered my subordinates to fulfill my promise."

Su Xing waved his hand and said with a smile: "General Shi, you are the first hero of the king's restoration. Now we are outsiders."

Shi Xiang seemed not to have heard the hidden meaning of Su Xing's words. He still walked forward and respectfully handed over the imperial seal with both hands. Su Xing took the treasure and carefully looked at the square jade stone with a gold edge in one corner in his hand. On the jade stone were engraved eight majestic dragon characters: "Received the Mandate from Heaven, May You Live Long and Prosper".

"As you two warriors have seen, the so-called card hidden in the imperial seal is just nonsense. The imperial seal is a complete piece of jade. Please examine it carefully and hand it over to me to return to the king."

"The eyes can deceive people, but the heart cannot." Su Xing couldn't let go of the imperial seal. "I feel that the stone has an extremely strong duel energy, and the card is in it!"

Suddenly, Su Xing raised the imperial seal high and smashed it down hard as Shi Xiang was horrified. The seal hit the bluestone floor with a loud "clang" and broke into countless pieces of jade, but a mysterious card emitting purple light floated out.

"How dare you! You actually smashed the national treasure!" Shi Xiang was furious, but he did not dare to act rashly: "I will report the matter here to the king truthfully, please don't blame me."

"Then you must quickly dispatch troops to capture us. If it's too late, we'll leave." Su Xing didn't care about Shi Xiang's reaction. He just stared at the card slowly rising into the air, forming a dark purple energy vortex that subtly attracted Su Xing and Bai Chu's bodies.

Su Xing looked at Bai Chu and said, "Go and bring Jiang You over. We can go home now."

"Yeah!" Bai Chu couldn't hide his joy. He trotted to Jiang You's room and brought Jiang You out in a princess-carrying posture.

When Bai Chu came back, Shi Xiang had already left, but Qin Liu still stayed there, looking at Bai Chu infatuatedly, as if he had something to say.

"Bai Chu, I'll go first, you hurry up and follow me." Su Xing saw that it was not suitable for him to stay any longer, so he stepped on the ground, his body flew into the air, and was sucked into the purple black hole in the air.

Bai Chu and Qin Liu looked at each other and said softly, "Your brother was willing to hand over the imperial seal to us. You must have fought for it, right? Thank you."

"My brother didn't break his promise on purpose, he just missed you, missed you..." Qin Liu was anxious to excuse her brother, but her face turned red as she spoke, and she couldn't utter the last five words, "stay with me".

"Anyway, thank you again, Qin Liu." Bai Chu seemed to remember something and took out a card from his deck:

"I'm afraid this farewell will be forever. When we first met, you said you liked one of my cards very much. Now I will give it to you. Think of it from now on."

Qin Liu took the card and looked at it carefully - [Feathered Spirit of Living Memories].

Bai Chu leaped forward as if he had ascended to heaven, and his body floated towards the black hole in the air.

"Don't leave, okay? Bai Chu."

Qin Liuqing couldn't help but say the words and she knew that her begging would not get any response. Unfortunately, the black hole in the air had no attraction to her. Instead, it had a strong resistance and repulsion. Otherwise, she would also want to follow Bai Chu.

Qin Liu looked at Bai Chu from afar. She could only see his lips moving, but could not hear his voice. Her vision was already blurred, and she stammered in a trembling voice, "Remember the green silk skirt, and pity the fragrant grass everywhere..."

Bai Chu looked at Qin Liu with gentle eyes, engraving her pretty figure in light green dress deeply in his mind. He nodded slightly, and his figure was gradually swallowed by the black hole.

"Bai Chu, Bai Chu..." Qin Liu couldn't help but call out the name of his beloved softly, and a hot, crystal tear quietly slid down his chin.
