There was even a close-up.

"Lin Quan and Luo Chuan's protectors responded promptly, but my simulated abilities could not be used consecutively, so..."

The butler bowed to explain.

Li Yuqi was stunned for a moment.

simulation?

The ability of this butler is simulation.

The object of simulation is naturally Zhang San.

But the ability he simulated could not be used continuously...

Because Lin Quan and Luo Chuan's protectors reacted quickly, they couldn't kill them. And Li Chang'an...did he die because of bad luck or because his protectors reacted slowly? Li Yuqi's eyes flickered.

She later checked the video footage of Li Changan's death, and it was true that there were two attacks. The first time, a force appeared on Li Changan's body and intercepted the shadow, so he was only injured, not dead.

After a few breaths, the second shadow appeared... and this time, Li Changan was pierced through the neck...

According to the housekeeper's words, they all have so-called protectors... This reminds Li Yuqi of the first time he met Lin Quan, the famous Lin Luo, a person with spatial abilities.

He should be Lin Quan’s protector.

Are there such people around Luochuan and Li Changan?

While Li Yuqi was thinking, Yun Jiucheng frowned and asked, "So, only Lin Changan died?"

"yes."

The housekeeper said.

Yun Jiucheng was silent for a while, then said: "Forget it, go on. What's the situation now?"

"As expected, Li Changan's death made the Li family unable to sit still, and Li Wenyao walked out of the abyss. But... the other two families... and the Yun family are still watching and have not yet stepped out of the abyss."

"Only Li Wenyao?"

"There are three god-level figures in total, but only Li Wenyao is from the family."

“…”

Yun Jiucheng frowned, then looked at the butler, who bowed without saying anything.

Yun Jiucheng was silent for a while and then said, "Okay, I understand. You can go out first."

"yes."

The butler didn't ask any more questions, bowed, and left.

After watching the housekeeper leave, Yun Jiucheng lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

After standing by the bed and thinking for a while, he turned his head and looked around. Suddenly, he flicked his finger, and a stream of light shot out, destroying all the cameras in the ICU bed. He then closed the curtains and the door, and then walked to the windowsill.

Under Li Yuqi's somewhat strange gaze, he saw a silver light coming out of the seemingly inconspicuous ring on his finger. The next moment, a sculpture appeared in his hand...

Li Yuqi's expression froze for a moment, then she narrowed her eyes and pointed her phone at the statue to take a picture.

Looking again... this statue was not the statue of an evil god as he had imagined, but rather a statue of a human being.

It was a man, about thirty years old. The bronze sculpture was extremely magical and looked lifelike.

Human?

He saw Yun Jiucheng respectfully placed the sculpture on the windowsill, and then took out a small bronze tripod, like an incense burner, and even took out three silver incense sticks.

After letting out a light breath, he lit the incense and knelt on the ground respectfully.

"The descendants of the future generation, Yun Jiucheng, respectfully invite Fuyao Taizu!"

A sound of "Fuyao Taizu" was heard, and a breeze blew in from the window. Then, as if it had life, it rolled up the smoke on the silver incense. The smoke did not disperse when it encountered the wind, but condensed and entangled like a silk thread, floating out of the window, and then extended to an unknown place.

Yun Jiucheng knelt on the ground respectfully with a pious expression.

Li Yuqi was frowning, and at this moment.

"Nine Cities."

A voice rang out.

Li Yuqi was startled and quickly looked in the direction where the voice came from... Unexpectedly, it was the sculpture that was speaking!

At this moment, the sculpture, which was already lifelike, seemed to have really come alive and turned into a handsome middle-aged man.

If you look closely, you can see that Yun Jiucheng is somewhat similar to this middle-aged man.

"Fuyao Taizu!"

Yun Jiucheng's eyes lit up and he kowtowed respectfully.

He was about to say something.

But the sculpture suddenly turned its head, and its eyes, which suddenly became lively, looked directly at Li Yuqi.

Li Yuqi was stunned at first, then his expression changed.

Discovered?

And as expected, the statue said calmly: "Too careless, I didn't even know someone was investigating me."

As soon as he finished speaking, before Yun Jiucheng could come to his senses, he saw the statue pointing its finger into the air.

The next moment, Li Yuqi felt a huge crisis, and his power suddenly burst out, with golden light surging, heading straight for the statue...

Just a sculpture...

Before the word "already" appeared in Li Yuqi's mind, his expression suddenly changed!

An unrivaled force came crashing down and instantly suppressed her.

This terrifying power even made Li Yuqi feel an indescribable sense of familiarity...

This is……

"authority?"

She was shocked and her eyes widened.

Then he made a prompt decision, his mind moved suddenly, and his whole body turned into a ball of black mist and suddenly dissipated!

"Um?"

Li Yuqi's sudden disappearance made the sculpture couldn't help but hum, as if it was very surprised.

A moment later...

"A clone?"

The sculpture's brows were furrowed.

On the contrary, Yun Jiucheng next to him was a little confused.

He looked up blankly. He heard what the ancestor said and saw his fingers moving... but from beginning to end, he did not see any other existence.

Until...

With a snap.

Yun Jiucheng looked down in confusion... a mobile phone with the screen still on suddenly fell beside him.

He was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously picked up the phone, only to find that the phone was in recording mode.

Full of doubts, I tentatively quit filming, and then clicked on the video just now...

"Lin Quan and Luo Chuan's protectors responded promptly..."

The butler's voice and the butler's old face, which was almost shot close to his face, appeared in the video.

Yun Jiucheng's expression suddenly changed.

“Who is it?!”

He suddenly stood up, looked around, and felt horrified.

You know, there were only him and the housekeeper in the room just now!

But this…

"It seems that some powerful guy has been eyeing you during this period."

The voice of the bronze sculpture sounded with some thought.

"Ah, ancestor?"

Yun Jiucheng came back to his senses and looked towards his ancestor.

"It's a clone."

He narrowed his eyes: "And it's not an ordinary clone...it has at least the third level of divine cultivation."

"Avatar? A third-level god-level cultivation?"

Yun Jiucheng was a little confused.

Then I saw the bronze sculpture pointing a finger, and spots of light appeared in the air. In the blink of an eye, a painting appeared out of thin air.

Yun Jiucheng looked over subconsciously, and when the painting was completely formed...

His eyes suddenly widened and he cried out in a lost voice: "Li Yuqi?!"

"Do you know him?"

The bronze statue raised an eyebrow in question.

"Yes, this is the spokesperson for Dawn, Li Yuqi! Old Ancestor, what did you just say about her...?"

Yun Jiucheng realized it later and looked at the bronze sculpture in disbelief.

"A clone. Moreover, it is not an ordinary clone."

The bronze sculpture's eyes narrowed. "When I first saw her, I didn't even recognize her as a clone... If she hadn't automatically released it, I wouldn't have been able to tell."

"Clone?!"

Yun Jiucheng’s eyes suddenly widened.

Li Yuqi... is a... clone?!

"Interesting, this clone...even...has a hint of authority."

The bronze sculpture narrowed its eyes, and then his fingers began to move slightly, as if he was calculating something.

"No, the soul fluctuations have completely disappeared... It seems like a clone, but it also seems like there is a real soul... Is it really authority? Someone else has gained authority?"

This time, the sculpture's brows were really furrowed, and a hint of solemnity appeared in its lively eyes.

After a long while, there seemed to be some kind of decision in his eyes.

"Tell me what you want from me."

"Ah, yes, I have barely completed the task you asked me to do... None of the three families are willing to provide purified water, so we can only retreat to plan B... Someone from the Li family has walked out of the abyss, but is currently on the moon. However, the Lin family, the Luo family, and the Yun family are still waiting and watching..."

Yun Jiucheng suppressed the shock in his heart and replied reluctantly.

"The Li family..."

The sculpture was silent for a moment, then said calmly, "I see. Anything else?"

"there is none left……"

Yun Jiucheng shook his head.

"You were assassinated, and your father was even unwilling to send a god-level to Earth?"

the sculpture suddenly asked.

Yun Jiucheng's expression froze slightly, and then he lowered his head, not knowing how to answer.

"Well, time is running out... Jiucheng, let me lend you something."

"Hmm? Ancestor?"

Yun Jiucheng looked up at the sculpture in confusion.

But the sculpture just flicked its finger, and the next moment, Yun Jiucheng's head exploded like a watermelon.

The headless body looked a little lost, and the next moment, it fell to the ground with a bang...

Yun Jiucheng, die! Glancing at the phone beside him, the sculpture hooked his finger, then operated in the air and dialed a number.

Soon after, the call was connected.

"who?"

"Come to Yunjiu City."

"……Owner?"

"Um."

"yes."

Not long after, the door opened and the butler walked in.

Seeing the living sculpture and Yun Jiucheng lying on the ground, he didn't seem surprised. Instead, he walked to the sculpture with a respectful look and bowed to the ground: "Yun Nu, I greet the master."

"The plan has changed. We need to speed up."

The sculpture spoke calmly.

The butler said calmly: "Yes, Master, please speak."

"Next..."

The sculpture spoke calmly, and the butler knelt down beside Yun Jiucheng and listened respectfully...

…

…

At the same time, Canglan City...

Qin Jinnian was suddenly stunned, and a series of memories suddenly appeared in his mind.

And when a certain feeling filled his mind, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

"The breath of authority?"

Li Yuqi's memory made him feel as if he were there in person, and he saw everything she had seen before.

And the strange statue that Yun Jiucheng made later, the finger that was pointing at Li Yuqi, there was definitely an aura of authority in it!

Qin Jinnian had a clearer sense of authority than Li Yuqi, although he didn't know what kind of authority it was.

"There is someone else who holds the power?"

Qin Jinnian’s eyes widened.

Power has always been the basis for his survival.

Before this, he had never felt any other authority...

"No, that's not right... When I gained the authority of the wind and fire elements, I encountered a being that held that authority... But, isn't that something indescribable? That sculpture is also something indescribable?"

Qin Jinnian’s eyes widened.

But he quickly shook his head.

It's impossible. If it really is an indescribable thing, Li Yuqi will die if he looks at her...even the entire earth will be destroyed.

The indescribable things are not so simple.

What's going on?

Take control...

Humans...

This is……

"A power-stealer?"

Qin Jinnian murmured slowly.

Because he suddenly remembered a detail.

When he was gaining the authority over the Fire Element, an angry voice came from inside, calling him a 'thief of power'.

That's a name.

However, since that indescribable thing called out this name as soon as it opened its mouth... this means that this name existed before.

After all, it's called so naturally.

It's just like...police, thief, doctor, and nurse.

If this hadn't existed before, it shouldn't have been so natural.

Indeed, who said that he was the only one who held the power? Qin Jinnian's expression changed.

He really didn't expect that the competition between Dawn and Super Martial Alliance would actually involve the existence of the "Power Thief"?

Yun Jiucheng calls him ancestor, which shows that he is a member of the Yun family.

It now seems that the target of Yun Jiucheng's self-torture tactic that he had directed and acted out before actually included three families.

Even...the Yun family was included in his plan.

Because it was not difficult to hear from his subsequent conversation with the butler.

He was eager for the gods from those three families... no, including the Yun family, to enter the Earth.

But why? Why did they allow those gods to come to Earth?

Qin Jinnian was a little confused.

So weird!

This matter was full of weirdness from beginning to end!

There are too many things that don't make sense.

There are too many strange and unreasonable things.

Especially the recent events, which were previously thought to be Yun Jiucheng’s doing because of the competition between the Super Martial Alliance and Dawn.

But now it seems... the ancestor of Yun Jiucheng must be behind this!

It’s that old ancestor who is causing trouble.

Moreover, it seems that he is determined to drag the Li, Luo, Yun and Lin families into the water.

What is so special about these four companies?

The Yun family can understand, at least they have a leader.

What about the Li family, the Luo family, and the Lin family? What makes them different from other aristocratic families? Why did the ancestor specifically bring them into this?

And the obvious target is the Earth.

But according to his current understanding of the abyss, God-level strongmen are not considered big figures in the abyss, only those in the Source Realm are considered big figures.

But it is too difficult for the Source Realm to enter the Earth.

And that old sculpture is obviously a Source Realm existence... Well, the leader said that the strongest human being at present is at the Source Realm. If the leader is not lying, then the sculpture that can kill Li Xiuqi in seconds and even force Li Xiuqi to self-dissipate is naturally at the Source Realm.

But he holds some kind of authority.

It was this person who held power and might be the ancestor of the Yun family who was in the source realm, but he seemed to be forcing the gods of the four families of Yunlin, Liluo, and others to enter the earth...

Why is this?

What good will this do for the old ancestor?

Qin Jinnian really couldn't figure it out...

And just when Qin Jinnian was thinking deeply about this problem.

The voice of the fifth Hatsune sounded in his mind: "Lord of Shadow, something has happened."

"Hmm?" Qin Jinnian came back to his senses: "What happened again?"

"Just got the news that Yun Jiucheng and Luo Chuan were stabbed to death. At the same time, the three Li family gods who just came here in Yuedu... are dead."

Qin Jinnian took a breath of cold air.

It's a mess.

Everything is messed up!

What the hell is going on?! (End of this chapter)
