Chapter 412 Return to the Ancient Capital
"Senior Ning, I'll be back soon!" Gu Jieshuang bowed deeply at the gate of Ning Xingyi's courtyard. "I'm sorry to have troubled you these past few days!"
"Hahaha... It's okay, little sister Jie Shuang, there's no trouble between us." Ning Xingyi said with a smile.
Beside Ning Xingyi, two stone lions stood on the left and right, with their heads held high and chests puffed out, their eyes wide open, and they remained silent. Their expressions looked quite realistic.
"Anyway, thank you very much, senior!" Gu Jieshuang did not dare to be negligent.
Talking about why Gu Jieshuang is here with Ning Xingyi... we have to start from the end of the Myth War.
Ning Xingyi and Ye Chengming joined forces to fight against the God of Wilderness. In fact, not many people knew about this battle... The media certainly would not report it.
Although it has been obvious recently that something big is about to happen, society has been calm for a long time after all. If this news is released at this time, it will undoubtedly cause unrest.
But even if it is not publicized, those who should know will definitely know.
Putting aside other things, the army is already using this matter for pre-war mobilization and to boost morale. Various card makers have also entered the battlefield, so it is unrealistic to conceal it completely.
As Yu Cang's girlfriend, Gu Jieshuang is not an outsider, so she naturally knows it.
She was naturally worried, but being thousands of miles away, there was nothing she could do, so she could only train like crazy. However, the training environment at Gudu University could no longer satisfy her. Just then, she met Ning Xingyi, who was passing through Gudu on his way back to Shendu.
So I decided to come to Mr. Ning for special training! Learn swordsmanship!
It was no coincidence that Ning Xingyi passed by the ancient capital - there was no such thing as getting off the plane on the way.
Ning Xingyi came to the ancient capital to find Gu Jieshuang.
After the battle of Yujiang, he saw Chao Ci's stars falling like rain, and he had many insights in his mind, but he couldn't grasp the clue for a while and was very annoyed.
Just at this moment, I remembered that after Gu Jieshuang left the Divine Capital, he seemed to have obtained two strands of sword intent from the Saint Master Zhongqiu in Feng Yuecang? One of them was even a myth!
In order to draw inferences from one instance to another, he thought of visiting the ancient capital and seeing if he could observe it.
In fact, he had this idea a long time ago... This time he finally had the opportunity to go out, and he happened to have some insights, so he naturally had to make good use of it.
So, the two hit it off, and Gu Jieshuang followed Ning Xingyi back to the Shendu courtyard for a month-long special training!
There is only one goal for this special training - sword intent!
Gu Jieshuang now has a lot of sword power in her hands. Although the upper limit is very high, it also dilutes her energy. It is definitely a good thing to have Ning Xingyi's guidance at this moment.
And now, it is time to say goodbye.
After saying goodbye to Ning Xingyi, Gu Jieshuang touched Shi Zuo's head again, causing the stone lion to squirm darkly and Shi You to look at him pitifully.
Helplessly, Gu Jieshuang had to run to the side again, patted Shi You's head gently, and then turned and left.
"Let's go home!" Gu Jieshuang hummed a little tune and walked down the mountain.
I can really learn a lot from Senior Ning.
However... after a month, my understanding of the sword intent has almost reached a bottleneck.
The other sword intentions are easy to deal with. My understanding has already reached the threshold of being passed down from generation to generation. Once I am promoted to level six, I will surely be able to break through naturally.
But that mythical Spring and Autumn Sword Intent... I can only say that it is worthy of being a myth. I have already spent most of my time on it, but I have only managed to push my understanding to the tenth level. Beyond that, I can't make any progress.
But fortunately, the tenth level means that the corresponding sword can be synchronized!
But, compared to the boss, it should be far behind.
At least... if I were to be on the battlefield of that mythical war, I can't imagine what role I could play...
Buzz.
Suddenly, a sound came from the personal terminal.
Gu Jieshuang picked it up and saw that it was a message from Lin Yunqing.
After seeing it clearly, Gu Jieshuang couldn't help but smile.
Lin Yunqing said that the new soul card is ready.
Nice!
His own deck has not been modified for a long time... and it just so happens that Lin Yunqing has been studying in Yu Cang's laboratory for so long, and his strength has improved by leaps and bounds, so he wants to make a deck to practice.
So, he went to find Gu Jieshuang.
If we were to say who in the world knows the most about Cang's research, it would undoubtedly be Lin Yunqing.
No matter what Yu Cang made, he would give it to her synchronously, and let her organize and improve it... She learned a lot in this process.
Although she always acted like she had no desire, but looking at Yu Cang, who seemed like a favored child of heaven, Lin Yunqing couldn't help but feel a little bit of comparison.
The two women secretly reached a cooperation.
Come on, let’s see if the two of them together can catch up with Yu Cang!
…
Yujiang
Yu Cang didn't know what the two were thinking at the moment. He just looked at the soul card in front of him and fell into deep thought.
Tian Yan Yu Cang...It seems that it can be understood in different ways depending on the different punctuation.
What is heaven? What does "cang" represent?
Or was this Yu Cang referring to himself? And why did the Emperor Xin Shura in front of him call himself Tian Yan?
Yu Cang frowned.
After thinking for a while without any results, he raised his head and cast his gaze towards the dragon in front of him.
Just now, I didn't feel wrong.
The summoned beast in front of me... wants to bite me back.
I want to backfire on myself like the banned card!
Logically speaking, there was no such possibility. Emperor Heart Shura was just an ordinary Soul Card, completely restricted by the Soul Card rules. How could it possibly backfire?
This point is also reflected in the Soul Card's ability - the only weakness of Emperor Heart Shura's all-resistance is himself.
Of course... this isn't really a weakness. If it can't even affect Yu Cang, then it's just a freak.
"...Tian Yan." Yu Cang's eyes narrowed slightly, "You wanted to retaliate against me just now?"
If you don’t understand, just ask.
What is in front of him is his own soul card. In theory, the dark synchronization is also the evil in his heart. It is one with himself. Why should he be afraid of such a thing?
The only accident he could think of now... was that the real body of "Emperor Star" had awakened with the help of the Blue Eye Tyrant.
But judging from the Emperor Star that Yu Cang saw in Feng Yuecangjian, the guy in front of him didn't look like him.
"I didn't think so, I just..."
Emperor Xin Shura raised his head, his indifferent expression quietly melted away, replaced by a creepy smile with jagged fangs!
"...I just want you to be mine!"
Yu Cang: "..."
It sounds like this is just an attempt to backfire on oneself.
Isn't this similar to the Evil Karma Lord that Cheng Mingye mentioned before? The Soul Card replaced the Soul Card Master, and the Soul Card Master was sealed in the Soul Card.
"What does Tian Yan Yu Cang mean?"
Emperor Xin Shura's smile widened: "You... don't know?"
How would I know?
Yu Cang thought to himself.
At this time, Dr. Ji said, "Yu Cang, did you make this soul card using the forbidden card method?"
Yu Cang shook his head and was about to speak, but the Emperor Xin Shura in front of him stood up first.
He turned to look at Dr. Ji, his dark golden eyes suddenly becoming cold.
"Why don't you worship me, common people?"
Dr. Ji: “…”
Before he could react to this sentence.
Emperor Xin Shura has raised his dragon claws. In an instant, dark crimson energy surged in his palms, and the heavy dragon might spread in an instant!
Dr. Ji's expression changed slightly. He looked at his hands and found that at this moment, the strength in his body seemed to have weakened a lot in an instant!
The ability of Emperor Heart Shura can directly affect him... affect the Soul Card Master?
This is not a banned card!
"Anyone who sees me and does not bow—behead!"
"You dare."
Yu Cang's calm voice came from behind, and in an instant, the Emperor's Heart spread out, covering the Emperor's Heart Shura!
Emperor Heart Shura paused, the energy formed by the dragon's breath still swirling in his palm. He frowned, "You and I share the same origin. The Emperor Heart cannot affect me."
"Yeah."
Yu Cang stopped talking and waved his hand. The Emperor's Heart Shura turned into soul card fragments and rushed into the soul card at Yu Cang's fingertips.
Why would you need the Emperor's Heart to deal with your own Soul Card?
Just cancel the summons.
Under Yu Cang's control, Emperor Xin Shura's last words [He will transform all living things] could not be used.
"Yu Cang."
Director Yu's voice came from behind Dr. Ji. Yu Cang looked over and saw that he had been standing there without knowing when. One of his hands was on Dr. Ji's shoulder, and his expression was a little solemn.
Obviously, Director Yu was almost about to take action himself.
"This soul card is very dangerous."
Director Yu clenched his hands behind his back.
He was also affected by Long Wei!
He is the guardian of the country... At this level, there are very few banned cards that can affect him. How could he be affected by the soul card summoned by Yu Cang?
It doesn't make sense.
But what happened was... Just now, he and Dr. Ji were directly added to the [Prison].
"I noticed that, too." Yu Cang rubbed his brows. "This card... didn't use any card-banning techniques. I don't know why it turned out like this. But it seems that it is still within my control."
He is just a little rebellious. Once Yu Cang's mind is diverted, he will think of causing trouble... After all, he cannot accurately control all of Emperor Xin Shura's actions every minute and every second.
Seeing the two people's obvious expressions of disbelief, Yu Cang felt helpless, so he briefly explained the definition of dark synchronization.
"Communicating the evil deep in our hearts?" Dr. Ji pondered.
Director Yu glanced at Yu Cang and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Good job.
Is the evil in your heart so terrifying?
I thought that someone like you, who is obsessed with saving the world, should have a bright heart.
Yu Cang: "What are those looks on your faces... This thing is obviously an accident! How could I possibly want to be a tyrant?"
It must be that guy Di Xin’s doing!
Back then, when he was in Feng Yuecangjian, Di Xin tried to influence himself and turn himself into a cold-blooded upgrade machine, facing Huang's crisis with an emperor's attitude... I think this time, it should be for a similar reason.
Yu Cang even suspected that the "personality" that he had abandoned might not have disappeared yet, but had taken advantage of this opportunity to become his soul card.
"...This Soul Card needs to be tested." Director Yu said, "Also, the Association will not allow you to use this Soul Card to participate in the High-Efficiency League."
"I understand." Yu Cang sighed, "I still have to stay in the treatment center for a few days, so I'll figure out this soul card first."
…
Before leaving the treatment center, Yu Cang had been testing the Emperor Heart Shura soul card.
However, the gains were not great.
Emperor Xin Shura did not reveal any valuable information, and Dr. Ji did not find any hidden dangers.
It’s like... this soul card is really just an ordinary soul card.
It's just that he is a little rebellious. When Cang is not controlling him all the time, he always has his own ideas and always puts himself in the role of an emperor.
Later, when Yu Cang asked him about Tian Yan and Yu Cang, he just kept repeating the same few words over and over again, with nothing new.
Helpless, Yu Cang could only give up.
However, it doesn't have much impact.
Even if this Emperor Heart Shura is deliberately concealing something... it's okay for Yu Cang. After all, for Yu Cang now, this guy's ability is not absolutely necessary. If there are safety risks, then he won't use it.
Soon, Yu Cang finished his studies at the Reception Bureau and boarded the plane back to the ancient capital.
Yu Cang looked out the window and could still vaguely see the devastated land outside Yujiang City... The changes to the terrain caused by the previous mythological war had not yet recovered.
That place has become a new secret place.
As a result, the responsibilities of Yujiang City have also changed slightly. Originally, Yujiang City was mainly used to guard against wild beasts outside the border. Now, this secret realm has directly blocked the city gate. There are gullies and ravines everywhere, and all kinds of mythical auras are entangled. It is difficult for wild beasts to survive, and they have completely disappeared.
There is no need to clear out the wild beasts, so the usual tasks here will definitely be reduced a lot. In addition, the new secret realm will attract various card makers... Yujiang may even develop into the thirteenth city of Yan Country.
Of course, there are still many unknown dangers hidden in this secret realm, and it is very likely that there are some foreshadowings left by the God of Wilderness. Therefore, although Yujiang has relaxed a little on the surface, the level of precautions in secret has increased.
This is what myths are like. Every move can cause huge changes in the outside world.
However, this has nothing to do with Yu Cang.
Yu Cang retracted his gaze, let out a breath, and turned his eyes to the sea of clouds.
After spending a month in the detention center, he was really bored.
Finally... I can go back.
…
ancient capital
Ding-a-ling...
Gu Jieshuang pushed open the door of the card-making room, and the hanging bell was rang, making a crisp sound.
She turned on the light, put her backpack on the bar, and then did not rush in.
Gu Jieshuang's eyes slowly swept across the small shop. Although her face was tired, there was still a smile in her eyes.
Finally... I'm back.
The boss hasn't been in this room for a long time.
It is already April, and in another week... the college league will begin, but there is still no definite news on when the boss will return.
However, the boss should abide by the agreement...it will be soon!
Thinking of this, Gu Jieshuang stretched, and then while moving his sore limbs, he walked to the corner and picked up the broom.
No one has been here for a month, and it's covered in dust... Let's clean it up before the boss comes back.
She got herself motivated and was about to do a thorough cleaning.
At this moment, there was a sound of the doorbell ringing behind him.
Eh? Are there any guests coming at this time?
No, this taste...
Gu Jieshuang's breathing stagnated and she quickly turned around. The next second, a familiar figure came into view.
At this time, Yu Cang was pushing open the door with one hand, and Qi'er ran into the house first with a cheerful pace, followed by a group of jumping little dolls. Ye Lai sat on Yu Cang's shoulders, and Chao Ci was coiled on Yu Cang's head. At this moment, he yawned out of boredom.
Pop.
The broom in his hand fell to the ground, and Gu Jieshuang's eyes widened slightly.
"Jie Shuang? Why are you here?" Yu Cang's smile seemed a little helpless. "I was thinking of preparing a surprise for you when I came back..."
Before he finished speaking, Gu Jieshuang had already thrown herself into Yu Cang's arms, buried her head in his arms, and took a deep breath of the familiar scent.
Ye Lai had already flapped his wings and flew away before Gu Jieshuang could make any move. When Gu Jieshuang threw herself into Yu Cang's arms, Chao Ci was thrown off from Yu Cang's head by the sudden force with a confused look on his face.
She blinked blankly, but after seeing the two people hugging each other, she just curled her lips and ran to the side to find a new place to rest.
