Chapter 285: A battle of wills, the gods' heroic recruitment, bitch, she is a bitch
"If you have done it, you must have the courage to admit it."
"It's no use being tough."
Jiang Lan just casually dropped his finger, and the cloud pattern between Zhou Yuan's eyebrows instantly dissipated. A trickle of blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth, and his face suddenly became miserable and bloodless.
"What do you want to do?" Zhou Yuan trembled all over, feeling that Jiang Lan's finger seemed to have pierced through his entire sea of consciousness.
"The remains of Yingzhao have indeed merged with him."
"Things are getting a little cumbersome."
Jiang Lan frowned. To be precise, Zhou Yuan now is equivalent to Ying Zhao's remains, but it is his will that controls this body.
Zhou Yuan is no longer a real human being. The blood of the god Ying Zhao flows in his body, and even his bones and internal organs are transformed from his remains.
It's okay to say it's half human, half beast.
Afterwards, Jiang Lan raised his hand and cast out several runes, which directly penetrated into Zhou Yuan's limbs and bones, conducting another in-depth investigation and analysis.
"What did you do to me?"
Zhou Yuan's entire body was cold, and his blood seemed to have solidified at this moment. Even his Yingzhao bloodline no longer exerted its former power, and had completely fallen silent.
"It's not easy to condense it directly. I need a way to peel it off. Otherwise, I can only give up on this guy..."
After a moment, Jiang Lan let Zhou Yuan go, but his brows furrowed even deeper.
If Zhou Yuan's life and the original aura remaining in Ying Zhao's remains have not completely merged, then he still has a way to sort it out.
But the current situation is that Zhou Yuan has completely merged with Ying Zhao's remains and they are indistinguishable from each other.
Even though Jiang Lan had mastered the Dao Fruit of Life and his control over vitality had reached an extremely high level, he was still unable to easily separate the original aura of Ying Zhao from Zhou Yuan's body.
The current Zhou Yuan is Ying Zhao’s remains itself.
"It seems that in the end, we can only erase this guy's consciousness and refine it like Ying Zhao's remains..."
Jiang Lan felt a little sad and regretful.
He originally planned to keep Zhou Yuan to stabilize the current situation in Yingzhao Star Domain, so as to firmly control the four star domains.
But the actual situation does not allow him to do so.
He has already wasted quite a bit of time in the Four Directions Star Region.
The next moment, a round blood-colored gem appeared in Jiang Lan's hand, and a strong bloody aura flowed in the air. Without waiting for Zhou Yuan to speak, he pinched his mouth, and the blood-colored gem immediately turned into a ray of blood light and went directly into his mouth.
Then he let Zhou Yuan go and looked at him with a strange look on his face.
"What did you feed me?"
“Ahem…”
Zhou Yuan covered his throat, full of fear and anger, and kept coughing.
His cultivation and magic power have been sealed by Li Ran. Although Ying Zhao's remains contain great power, he cannot use it now.
As he swallowed the Blood Evil Orb, he suddenly felt all his energy and strength rushing into it like a flood.
He could even feel the ray of blood light circling above his Dantian Spirit Sea. After circling for a while, it turned into a gem, hanging high there, emitting blood-red light and shadow, constantly devouring and absorbing all the strength in his body.
"It's time for the Wanling Blood Puppet to advance and grow..."
Jiang Lan had already planned to erase Zhou Yuan's consciousness and refine it, so he naturally would not waste the tremendous power contained in his remains.
The All-Spirit Blood Puppet that he condensed at the beginning could no longer keep up with his current cultivation strength, but if he absorbed the power of this relic, it would be easy for him to reach a level comparable to the Supreme Power in a short period of time.
Once this power is fully digested, the strength can be further improved.
"You..."
Zhou Yuan waved his hands and struggled as if he was suffocating, making hoarse sounds.
During this process, blood gradually spread and covered the area, starting from his throat. It then turned his eyeballs red, and the cloud pattern on his forehead completely dissipated.
"You puppet, don't even think about taking over my will. I have been struggling against the will of Yingzhao Dojo and Yingzhao's remains for so many years, and I finally persevered."
"How could it be possible that a puppet could possess my body..."
"No one can defeat me in terms of willpower."
Zhou Yuan gritted his teeth, his eyes turned red, his voice was hoarse, and he struggled hard.
"I can't die..."
"I can't die here."
"I still have to go see Zhao Jin..."
Suddenly, Zhou Yuan's eyes widened and he let out a deafening roar.
At the same time, a surging and vast breath burst out from the center of his eyebrows, the sound of wind and clouds roared, and the void resonated, as if trying to break free from all restraints and shackles.
Even the asteroid beneath their feet began to tremble, meteorites rolled, and the earth broke into pieces.
"Um?"
Jiang Lan raised his eyebrows slightly. He was sensing the changes in the Wanling Blood Puppet. He didn't expect that at this moment of death, Zhou Yuan suddenly exploded, and even the restrictions set by Li Ran showed signs of being broken free.
The next moment, the sacred light enveloped Zhou Yuan's entire body.
His body shape and appearance continued to expand and undergo tremendous changes. At his shoulder blades, muscles tore, bones stretched out, and a pair of broad, snow-white wings stretched out.
At the same time, his lower body began to change, transforming into the shape of a horse, with cloud patterns stepping on the snow, looking extremely handsome, with the power of wind and clouds lingering around him, and carrying the anger of a god, as if he wanted to punish the world.
"Jiang Lan, I want you to die..."
"I am a divine recruit, how can I allow you to offend me?"
Zhou Yuan's eyes were red-gold, and he was furious to the extreme.
He soared into the air, spread his wings, and clenched one hand. Suddenly, the sound of wind and thunder was heard, and the rules of heaven and earth intertwined, transforming into a ferocious halberd, which he held in his palm, pointing diagonally to the south, and killing from the air.
"As expected of a son of luck, he can still break through at this critical moment."
Jiang Lan's expression remained the same. He smiled faintly, then raised his hand and punched forward. Suddenly, a terrifying fist light shot up from the asteroid and submerged half of the surrounding star field. It was so vast and terrifying that it seemed to be able to submerge the sea of stars.
At this moment, Zhou Yuan actually had a vast aura comparable to that of a saint.
However, Jiang Lan's punch was an extreme attack. With a loud bang, the void became a rag. The battle spear condensed by Zhou Yuan broke into pieces with a snap and exploded into a regular light mist all over the sky.
He was hit in an instant, and he staggered and flew sideways, and it was unknown how many thousands of miles away he was.
Jiang Lan took a step into the air and followed slowly.
"I am a disciple of the Emperor of Heaven, personally appointed as the God of Heaven, but the will of an ant dares to occupy my body..."
"I'm Zhou Yuan, get out of my body, I'm going to kill Jiang Lan..."
But after being hit by him, Zhou Yuan seemed to have a lot of problems in his condition. The color of his eyes kept changing, one was deep red-gold with the majesty of a god, and the other was ordinary brown-black, full of struggle and anger.
Two completely different sounds also came out of his mouth.
"It seems that there is something wrong with your will..." Jiang Lan did not expect such a dramatic scene to happen.
It seems that the will in Yingzhao's remains has not completely dissipated, and some of it still remains.
The power that broke free from Li Ran's seal just now should have come from Ying Zhao's true will.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for Zhou Yuan to master that power by himself.
"I am a divine summons. How dare a mere ant offend me..."
"Get out of my body. I'm Zhou Yuan, not Ying Zhao."
Zhou Yuan stood in the starry sky, making angry sounds from his mouth, and his red-gold eyes gradually revealed anger.
But soon, accompanied by a burst of struggling and unyielding words, the red-gold light in his eyes dissipated and faded, and it seemed that it would soon be suppressed by Zhou Yuan's own will.
Seeing this, Jiang Lan suddenly thought of something, a strange look appeared on his face, and he said, "Brother Zhou, it turns out that the wife you have been looking for is named Zhao Jin. She never told me about this."
"What?"
Zhou Yuan, who was fighting with Ying Zhao for control of his body, suddenly heard Jiang Lan's words. His original consciousness could not help but stagnate, and he shouted hoarsely, "Jiang Lan, what do you mean by this? Have you seen Zhao Jin?"
As soon as he asked this question, his consciousness began to shake violently.
The light in that red-gold eye suddenly became brighter, and it was obvious that Ying Zhao's will began to take back control.
Zhou Yuan had to start devoting more energy to suppressing this will.
"I didn't know her original name was this. She has always been called Han Jing in front of me."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Jiang Lan said with a smile, but did not take any action. He just watched the show from the side.
"Don't mess with my mind..."
Zhou Yuan's consciousness became increasingly turbulent. He seemed to understand Jiang Lan's intention and began to focus all his attention and thoughts on resisting Ying Zhao's will.
"If I wanted to confuse your mind, I could just attack you directly. Why use such a despicable method?"
"On the day you and Han Jing got married, you were spotted by the elders of Yingzhao Dojo and forcibly taken away as a sacrifice for the Yingzhao Dojo's remains. Unfortunately, Han Jing didn't know the truth. In order to find you, she said goodbye to her family, left her hometown, and joined Yingzhao Dojo. In the end, she learned that you had died as a sacrifice. From then on, she wanted to take revenge on Yingzhao Dojo..."
Jiang Lan spoke with a tone of regret and shook his head slightly.
"What……"
Zhou Yuan's heart was shocked again. He never expected that his experience with "Zhao Jin" would be told by Jiang Lan.
Moreover, before this, he had no idea where "Zhao Jin" had gone. He had returned to his hometown and asked "Zhao Jin"'s family, but he had never received any accurate answer.
Even Zhao Jin's family did not know that he was used as a sacrifice to Ying Zhao's remains at Ying Zhao's Taoist temple.
There is no way Jiang Lan knew all this for no reason.
"You don't think I'm lying to you, do you?"
"These experiences were told to me personally that night by your wife who had married you but never lived in a cave..."
"She tried her best to take revenge on Yingzhao Dojo." Jiang Lan continued speaking, his tone more regretful, but also with a bit of admiration.
"What do you mean by that..."
Zhou Yuan's heart was trembling at this time, and his mind was no longer on competing with Ying Zhao for control of his body.
"Do you want to take a look and see if this is the one you are familiar with?"
Jiang Lan seemed to have thought of something. He raised his hand and a white photo stone emerged, shining brightly.
Zhou Yuan suddenly stared at the photo stone. He didn't know why Jiang Lan wanted to keep this thing.
Soon, as Jiang Lan's magic power surged, the light of the image stone became more and more intense, and scenes began to emerge and perform in the void.
"Zhao... Zhao Jin..."
When he saw the woman in Taoist robes, Zhou Yuan's emotions fluctuated violently and his voice trembled.
She was a woman wearing a Taoist robe and having her hair tied up in a bun. Her long black hair was neatly tied in a jade hair crown. Her face was flawless and she wore no makeup, but her skin was so white and delicate that it seemed as if water could be squeezed out of it at any time.
Although he had not seen her for many years, Zhou Yuan recognized her at a glance. She was his wife. They grew up together, got engaged, and were childhood sweethearts with a deep affection.
On the wedding day, she was wearing a phoenix crown and a red bridal robe, quietly waiting for him in the bridal chamber...
At this moment, the picture in the stone shows a courtyard with cool moonlight and steaming mist. In the pavilion, a young man is sitting quietly.
"Jiang Lan, you..."
Soon, Zhou Yuan guessed the intention of "Zhao Jin" in the picture.
When he saw her slowly squatting down and gathering her hair, Zhou Yuan's voice began to roar, like a mandarin duck crying blood, his eyes were bloodshot.
He roared angrily, his eyes turned red, and regardless of everything, a surging wind and thunder divine light pierced through and directly destroyed the image stone.
He didn't need to read on to guess what happened next.
What happened in the past happened so long ago that it is impossible to change it.
But Jiang Lan deliberately kept it and kept it in his hands.
"Jiang Lan, you are despicable and shameless, I want you to die..."
Zhou Yuan's emotions were surging like raging waves, and his anger was overwhelming.
At this moment, he was as if facing an irreconcilable enemy, and was about to rush over and fight Jiang Lan to the death.
As a man who stands tall and proud, how could he allow his once beloved wife to be defiled and humiliated in this way?
However, the remaining Ying Zhao's will in his body obviously would not let him do as he wished, and it once again fought with him for control of his body, causing his movements to come to an abrupt halt.
"I have never forced Han Jing. If she is willing to commit herself to me, then I am naturally willing to help her."
"You have to know that she came to me to ask for all this on her own. I have to say, she is really obedient." Jiang Lan smiled faintly.
But when Zhou Yuan heard this, he felt that a certain determination and fantasy in his heart were shattered. With a click, nothing was left.
He screamed, spurted out a mouthful of blood, and kept screaming, "Bitch, this bitch..."
"How could she betray me? Has she forgotten the promise I made to her? She is such a bitch, she doesn't deserve to be treated like this..."
"She did all this, and suffered all kinds of humiliation and injustice, all for the sake of helping you get revenge. Why do you curse her so much in the end?"
"You really don't deserve her to treat you like this."
Jiang Lan shook his head and sighed.
He could clearly feel that Zhou Yuan's state of mind was broken, and the luck that belonged to Zhou Yuan was dissipating and also constantly flowing towards him.
The most obvious thing is Ying Zhao's will, which gradually began to take over. Without the so-called "God's will" protection and luck blessing, how could Zhou Yuan, as an ordinary person, compete with a god? "Bitch, this bitch..."
"You and she both deserve to die. You humiliated me, lied to me, and both deserve to die."
Zhou Yuan no longer cared about anything. His body was covered in surging light and mist, and the sound of divine thunder was lingering. He rushed towards Jiang Lan, flapping his wings with endless light, falling like a rain of swords.
Jiang Lan just slapped him, simply and roughly, and with a loud bang, all of Zhou Yuan's offensives collapsed and disappeared. He flew sideways and fell onto the asteroid at his feet. His whole body was soaked with blood, and the aura fluctuations comparable to those of a saint were no longer there.
"It's finally time for peace..."
Jiang Lan turned into a stream of light, and his figure fell down, then he stepped on Zhou Yuan's face. As the brown-black light in his eyes faded, his consciousness gradually dissipated.
But what replaced it was a red-gold light with godly majesty, which was frightening and intimidating without anyone daring to look it in the face.
"I am a divine summons. How dare an ant humiliate me so presumptuously?"
A majestic and deep voice rang out, carrying a hint of anger.
"Be at my feet, even the gods should shut up."
Jiang Lan's expression remained the same. He kicked down, and a large crack suddenly spread, causing his head to smash deeply into it, with smoke and dust flying everywhere.
