Chapter 178: Unknown Whereabouts

The guards outside drew their swords and walked straight towards Shen Yu. Shen Yu was exhausted. He looked up and saw the black lines around the coal ball gathered again, aiming at Shen Yu's forehead in an attacking position.

The coldness on Shen Yu's lips did not diminish. He seemed to find it funny. He threw the bloody hairpin in his hand and kicked it aside.

His hands were really dirty.

"Kill him—"

Xuan Lin's furious voice filled the inner hall. Shen Yu grabbed a corner of the bed and when he stood up, he vaguely smelled a little herbal fragrance hidden under the bed.

Those past events flashed quickly before Shen Yu's eyes, complicated and confusing, happy or sad, and finally turned into fragments.

What a pity... Shen Yu closed his eyes silently. In the end, he had only accompanied Wen Yu to this point.

What will happen to him in the future and what path he will take will eventually be out of Shen Yu's control.

Blood oozed from the corners of Shen Yu's lips. He looked through the crowd and fixed his gaze on Xuan Lin again. In just one or two seconds, he suddenly picked up the sharp blade beside him and stabbed in the direction of Xuan Lin again.

Even if he dies today, he will drag Xuan Lin to hell with him.

Seeing this, the secret guard at the door pulled down the hidden arrow in his hand. At the same time, the electric current surrounding the coal ball also struck Shen Yu directly.

"Urgent, urgent, urgent—activate the emergency shield if you want to survive!"

A loud noise suddenly erupted in the center of the inner hall. The ground shook continuously, and Shen Yu felt that all the space within his field of vision suddenly became blank. The moving crowd seemed to slow down, their movements slowed down, and slowly stopped, as if they were completely embedded in the picture at this moment.

"Shen Yu! Go!"

There was a sharp explosion in Shen Yu's ear, and his thoughts quickly gathered. All the blankness in his eyes disappeared, and within a few seconds, the scene returned to the same as before.

"...Just trying to survive?"

The body of the sphere was enlarged more than ten times. It was huge, using its outer edges to block the arrows and black lines from the outside. It didn't say much, but just grabbed Shen Yu's collar and quickly stuffed him into the protective shield inside its body.

"What is this?!" Xuan Lin's eyes widened. He turned to look at Coal Ball and saw that Coal Ball was frozen in mid-air, and the black lines on its body dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Dangerous object detected! Alert! Alert! Beep - insufficient power, requesting support from headquarters - Beep - insufficient power - connection failed -"

Gouchu Tousheng snorted coldly, and without saying a word it rammed into Coal Ball. Coal Ball was knocked sideways, flew out and smashed into the wall next to it.

The Yang energy in Gouqie Tousheng was rapidly depleted, and it swallowed Shen Yu into the ball, accelerating to escape from the door. The entire wall of the inner hall was smashed open by the external force, and Gouqie Tousheng rushed into the air amid the falling rubble, flying out of the palace wall with a clear goal.

Shen Yu seemed to be sitting in the cabin. He was stunned when he saw these scenes and subconsciously grasped the empty air beside him.

"……Do not touch me."

A faint mosquito-like sound was heard beside Shen Yu. Shen Yu was stunned when he heard it. He turned his head and saw another person inside the ball.

He looked like a wooden dummy, with half-curled white hair hanging down beside his ears, pale lips, and unusually bright golden pupils. His entire body, including his face, was covered with gaping wounds, and his neck and head looked as if they had just been put on, but had been mechanically rotated, with the lines of the neck not aligned at the break.

Shen Yu had never seen a human being like this before. He took his hand back and stepped back a little: "Sorry."

The man retreated into the corner and stopped talking. The man was still flying outwards, and as his Yang energy was constantly consumed, the body of the man in the space was also rapidly decaying and cracking.

Shen Yu vaguely sensed something was going on. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard an explosion from Gouqiu Tousheng's body.

The entire space inside the ball was shaking and the alarms kept ringing.

Shen Yu frowned. He couldn't see the situation outside, but he could sense that the direction of his flight had suddenly changed, and the entire ball was falling down at an extraordinary speed.

Shen Yu suddenly felt something was wrong. He was about to leave the space, but after taking two steps, he felt his leg tighten. He lowered his eyes and saw the dummy with a pale face hugging his thigh tightly.

“…”

Shen Yu stopped walking, he stopped beside the dummy and said, "Don't worry, I won't go out."

The strength in the dummy's hands did not decrease. He looked up at Shen Yu, his face slowly cracking in Shen Yu's eyes.

"Bang!!!"

After falling down at high speed, the dummy hit the ground, and a violent shock wave swept up. Shen Yu was sitting inside the space, and his body rolled up and down uncontrollably, and the dummy was also thrown all over the place.

"Alert! Alert! The energy is approaching the limit! The energy is approaching the limit! Please quickly leave the black hole space! The current energy is insufficient--"

Shen Yu was dazzled. After he stopped, his vision went from blurry to clear, and he unconsciously shifted his gaze downwards.

The dummy had already disappeared into space. Shen Yu's gaze froze, and he saw a pile of dark corpses of unknown origin lying beside his legs.

"Please leave the isolation space quickly! Alarm! Please quickly..."

Before the alarm in the space ended, Shen Yu was thrown out. His vision blurred for a moment, and Shen Yu fell into the bushes, smelling the scent of grass, trees and soil under his nose.

"Cheating for survival?" Shen Yu's limbs were numb and painful. After seeing the situation clearly, he quickly stood up and saw Cheating for survival stuck in the middle of the tree branches.

The size of the Gouqie Tuosheng has shrunk by who knows how many times. When Shen Yu first saw it, it was still as big as a pot lid, but now... it has shrunk to only half the size of his palm.

Gouqiu Tuosheng sobbed and kept crying: "I was hit by a coal ball! Wuwu... It, it has more yang energy than me, and it used a dirty trick to hit me! Ahhhh, wuwu..."

Shen Yu picked it up from the middle of the branch. He observed the spherical body that was trying to survive and saw a crack at the top of its head. The purple solid inside was flowing slowly without hurting the inside.

"If you want to survive, I have some Yang Qi, although it's not much, but it can repair your wound." Shen Yu touched the gap on its head and said with narrowed eyes, "I'm glad you're okay."

Goujue Tusheng sniffed and covered his head, finally feeling a little comforted: "Let's make it clear first, I'll give you one thousand. You broke your promise last time and gave me one hundred."

"..." Shen Yu sighed, "I'll give you two thousand. Is that enough?"

Suddenly, a purple light flashed, and it pretended to be awkward and said, "Okay, two thousand is two thousand, but it's still a little too little."

Shen Yu ignored it. He looked around and asked, "Where are we?"

"We are still in the palace." Gouqie Tusheng put a red cross mark on his head, "It's quite far from Kunning Palace. We are now in the cold palace."

Shen Yu: “…”
