Extreme Good and Extreme Evil
At the core of the explosion, a faint blue light lingered for a long time.
When the dust settled, a blurry figure gradually became clear. In front of Qin Shu was a curtain of water. The violent air waves disappeared in front of this quiet and calm curtain of water like a stone sinking into the sea.
But Qin Shu was not a warrior after all, and his reaction to pulling up the water curtain was half a breath slower than the man. Although it was only a moment, he was eventually affected.
He pressed his chest with one hand and breathed with difficulty, each breath bringing a dull pain that pierced his heart and lungs.
Qin Shu forced himself to look up, his vision blurry and shaking.
In this match, the opponent didn't want to defeat him at all, he was fighting for his life.
The aftermath of the blood explosion had not yet dissipated when a roar came from outside the dust and fog.
"He's still alive—Kill him!!"
Hundreds of foreign cavalry gathered again, their horses' hooves roared like thunder, and they charged forward in anger!
"Your Highness—go!"
There was a martial arts disciple whose name Qin Shu couldn't remember, who rushed forward like lightning and pulled Qin Shu to the side!
The long sword was unsheathed, and with a whistling sound that tore through the air, the disciples boldly stood in front of Qin Shu.
The other disciples also rushed over.
“Retreat quickly—!”
"Protect His Highness!!"
The leading young man said anxiously, "You guys! Protect His Highness and head west—quickly!"
The young man's voice was hoarse, but he did not retreat even a bit.
Another disciple stumbled forward and blocked the alien weapon with his own strength.
Qin Shu saw that more people gathered around, one after another blocking the aliens, like layer after layer of thin cocoons, about to be easily torn apart in the raging fire.
He frowned. What a bunch of fools wasting their lives.
Beside Qin Shu, black mist filled the air and dense three-inch black thorns rose into the air.
He said in a deep voice: "Stop getting in the way and get out of here."
···
For the first time, Ren Xuan had a deep and practical understanding of the word "retribution".
The dignified King Di of the North was willing to sacrifice his life to kill Qin Shu.
Dog Emperor, look at the sins you committed in your previous life.
Fortunately, Yue Anshan's troops had entered the town long ago. As soon as there was some commotion behind the mountain, the hundreds of aliens were surrounded by the black mass of troops.
Yue Anshan rushed out of the tent in a hurry, feeling as if the sky was falling. "The external force recoiled and severely damaged two meridians. The doctor said that the Qi in the palace is disordered, and he needs to lie down for at least two weeks."
Ren Xuan also frowned.
It was surprising that Qin Shu, a man who was alone in covering the retreat of a group of martial arts disciples, almost got himself into trouble.
He sighed softly, saying that extreme good and extreme evil were both on the same side. The so-called good and evil, gods and demons, were but a thought.
Of course, the most uncomfortable thing now is that once the dog emperor falls, they can’t even continue their rebellion.
After all, he and Yue Anshan are just two direct subordinates of Qin Shu.
Ren Xuan didn't even dare to say that he knew all the men under Prince Xiang's mansion, let alone bypass Qin Shu and act as his agent for everything.
Ren Xuan pondered for a moment and said, "Stop the news and don't return to the Imperial City for the time being. Wait until he wakes up."
Yue Anshan went a step further: "Old Ren, why not go directly to Yunzhong."
Ren Xuan and Yue Anshan looked at each other and understood what each other meant.
As Yue Anshan spoke, he took out the Yanshu, and dense light symbols leaped into the air. It was obvious that the group of "loyal ministers" had been discussing this for a while.
A single tree cannot make a forest: "It's been so long, and there's still no news about Qin Shu?"
The most loyal of the great empires: "Dongliu Town, His Highness is injured."
A single tree cannot make a forest: "Has Lu Xingchuan caught up with you?"
The most loyal person in Dagan: "Foreign race."
Guanwai Tieyi: "Where did this alien race come from, just a few dozen miles outside the imperial city?!!"
The most loyal of all the great men: "No less than a thousand men."
Outside the Pass Iron Armor: "?!!"
Guanwai Tieyi: "What do you mean, mobilize troops?"
A single tree cannot make a forest: "Why mobilize troops? Are we running a charity?"
A passerby said: "The Crown Prince has already appointed Qin Xuan. Why should we take the blame? Let Qin Xuan deal with it himself."
A doctor cannot heal himself: "..."
Yue Anshan saw Ren Xuan's dilemma: "Old Ren, what are you thinking about?"
Ren Xuan didn't reply to him. He just looked up at the Yan Shu light symbol for a while. After a moment of silence, he finally replied in the group:
The damn dog emperor: "Let's go to Yunzhong. Can Lu Xiyun go with us? Leave him here alone?"
The light symbol paused for two breaths.
No one spoke for two full breaths.
Then--
Guanwai Tieyi: "...Don't."
A single tree cannot make a forest: "I can't say that. I can't even think about it."
A passerby said: "Qin Shu is awake and knows that you left Lu Xiyun here. He can produce three versions of the Nine Clans List for you in one day."
The doctor can't heal himself: "...if you want to reopen, just say so."
Ren Xuan raised his eyebrows. Wow, these people have more opinions than one in the group every day.
As soon as Lu Xiyun was mentioned, everyone immediately became more united than ever.
He leaned back in his chair and blurted out:
The F**King Emperor: "So...?"
A single tree cannot make a forest: "How is Qin Shu's injury?"
The Dog Emperor: "Not awake yet. It will take at least half a month."
A single tree cannot make a forest: "He's been lying in bed for half a month. If he doesn't go to Yunzhong, Lu Xingchuan will have Qin Huaijin's full support behind him. He can easily kill all of us."
Ren Xuan frowned. This was a problem. Lu Xingchuan was already in trouble, not to mention that he now held the emperor's order.
At this moment, the time symbol flashed.
A passerby said: "He can't lie down now. Old Ren, please exchange your life with Qin Shu."
A bunch of question marks suddenly appeared on the light symbol.
Ren Xuan’s vision went dark and dark:???!
The damned emperor: "Why should I change?!"
A passerby here: "You can exchange your life in one direction."
Ren Xuan almost vomited a mouthful of blood.
Ren Xuan cursed in his heart, damn it, he knew who this grandson was!
A passerby said, "Old Ren, what time is it? If Qin Shu doesn't wake up, we're all doomed. Everyone's lives rest on your shoulders."
A single tree cannot make a forest: "General Ren, think twice."
A doctor cannot heal himself: "General Ren, think twice."
Outside the Pass: "General Ren, think twice."
Ren Xuan was speechless. These bastards, are they trying to blackmail me?!
When he frowned, Yue Anshan beside him immediately noticed the clue. Yue Anshan narrowed his eyes and said, "Old Ren, can you really exchange a life-changing letter in one direction?"
Ren Xuan didn't answer with a cold face, Yue Anshan understood, and Yue Anshan had a sudden enlightenment.
The most loyal of the big guns: "Old Ren said it can be replaced."
The next second, the light symbols flashed in unison:
A single tree cannot make a forest: "General Ren is a man of high righteousness."
A doctor cannot heal himself: "General Ren is a man of high righteousness."
The Ironclad Outside the Pass: "General Ren is a man of high righteousness."
Ren Xuan's silence was deafening.
Damn, these people, I give in.
As the name suggests, a fortune-telling letter is a two-way contract.
Once established, those who exchange letters must share the same fate and live and die together.
The so-called "one-way exchange of posts" is not a proper way at all.
The real art of fortune-telling is about the mutual understanding between twins, and sharing the ups and downs.
One-way exchange of letters is something outside the rules - before Ren Xuan, it was only used when killing people.
More importantly, he would "change the post one-way" and "destroy the post one-way", but he would never "break the contract one-way".
In other words, unless he killed Qin Shu, once the life certificate was exchanged, even he himself could not take it back.
Ren Xuan felt annoyed. He had known that this move would cause trouble, and he had never used it before. But this time, Pei Jiming had actually caught him.
Yue Anshan started to urge him: "Old Ren, don't even think about it, everyone is waiting."
Ren Xuan's face was as gloomy as the bottom of a pot. He gritted his teeth and reluctantly lifted the curtain and entered the military tent.
Yue Anshan was guarding outside, prepared to wait for most of the day.
Unexpectedly, before half an incense stick of time had passed, Ren Xuan had stormed out of the military tent again.
Yue Anshan was so surprised that he almost bit his tongue: "Old Ren...you are too fast, aren't you?"
Ren Xuan's anger flared up when he heard this: "I'm not getting married to him!"
Yue Anshan was choked and immediately shut up.
The more Ren Xuan thought about it, the more depressed he became. With Qin Shu's low level of martial arts, exchanging letters with Qin Shu was definitely a charity for him.
Ren Xuan swung his sleeves in indignation. "A one-way exchange of letters is a murderous technique. If it were like a traditional divination letter, with complicated techniques, using talismans as a medium, and completing the ritual through burning talismans and decrees, and still killing people? It's too late."
Yue Anshan seemed to understand, but he didn't quite understand. He asked tentatively, "Then, Your Highness...is he awake?"
Ren Xuan snorted coldly: "Wake up, wait at least another half day."
Seeing Ren Xuan's face almost turning dark as a pot of ink, Yue Anshan touched his nose and came forward to smooth things over with a smile: "Old Ren, think about it. His Highness is not a warrior, how much of your energy can he consume?"
Ren Xuan became even more depressed after hearing this, and his voice muffled: "Is this a problem with Qi Yuan?!"
Yue Anshan was stunned for a moment: "Isn't it?"
Ren Xuan felt an indescribable rage in his heart. Damn it, neither he nor Shi'an had ever exchanged life notes.
Ren Xuan was so angry he had no place to vent his anger: "Open your eyes and look at who these people are who are exchanging their life cards with each other! Qin Shu should just go and find Lu Xiyun to exchange, okay?!"
Yue Anshan said innocently: "...keep your voice down."
He said in a deep voice: "How could the Queen look down upon His Highness when it comes to exchanging letters?"
Ren Xuan's face suddenly became darker.
Seeing that Ren Xuan was about to explode with rage, Yue Anshan was afraid that Ren Xuan would really tear down the military tent next, so he quickly coughed and changed the subject: "Right, right, let's talk about business."
He fished out a tightly rolled secret letter from his bosom and flicked it between his fingers: "The secret agent at Shengde Temple sent back news that Lu Xiyun has gone over there."
Yue Anshan hesitated for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Old Ren, do you think the Crown Prince would really turn against us for the Queen's sake?"
Ren Xuan shook his head: "Lu Xiyun knows it very well."
Suddenly, there was a sudden sound of wind outside the tent.
Ren Xuan's heart trembled, and he turned around suddenly. Several dark shadows flashed in like ghosts, and the cold light of the red copper scimitar flashed in the tent.
Black armor and red blade, Xifu Feathered Cavalry.
Ren Xuan had just shouted a word when his throat was blocked by a strange force.
In a flash, Yue Anshan was pinned to the ground by three feather riders. His iron armor made a crackling sound, but Yue Anshan could only make an indistinct roar and could not utter a complete word.
It is Lu Xingchuan's five prohibitions and six cuts.
In the dead silence, the sound of footsteps could be heard softly outside the tent.
Lu Xingchuan, who walked in through the curtain, had a very calm look in his eyes. He walked slowly and took a quick glance around as he entered the tent.
Lu Xingchuan's eyes remained calm, but his tone was sarcastic and cold: "The imperial order token can actually pass through your camp unhindered."
He walked up to Ren Xuan and stood still, lowering his eyes. He spoke in a steady, sarcastic voice, "Ren Xuan, if you want to rebel, then rebel. If you want to stay, then stay. You're so indecisive and dragging your feet. That's not like you."
Ren Xuan cursed Yue Anshan's ancestors in his heart, this wasn't his camp.
Ren Xuan turned his head and kicked Yue Anshan - I give up, you fucking killed me.
Yue Anshan was stunned by the stare, and then rolled his eyes at him unwillingly: You bastard, you were the one who said it, don't turn against the Imperial City first.
Ren Xuan gritted his teeth, managing to remain calm in the face of danger. "Lord Lu, the foreign race is wreaking havoc, and I am leading the army to suppress the rebellion. Do you have the emperor's order to kill me?"
Lu Xingchuan's expression remained unchanged. He smiled softly, "Ren Xuan, there's no need to test me. I'm not here to kill you."
Lu Xingchuan leaned over and looked down at Ren Xuan, his words clear: "Ren Xuan, I'm speaking frankly."
He unhurriedly put forward the conditions: "Hand over Qin Shu, and you can choose any position you want in the court."
