Chapter 25 It is Jing Yuan, and also trust
The plain question exploded in my mind like thunder. The ordinary door seemed to have turned into a man-eating demon at this moment.
I subconsciously took a step back, staring in a daze at the motionless heavy wooden door. For a moment, I didn't realize that I should ask Qing Du first.
Qing Zhu seemed to take this as a tacit agreement. She sighed and responded, "Even if you don't want to mention it, the concerns you inadvertently revealed cannot be concealed."
Concerned? I recalled the conversation just now, and finally focused on that seemingly ordinary sentence: "You will stay in Shen Ce Mansion forever, right?"
...I don't know how to refute it. After all, Jing Yuan, who was actually the general of Luofu, definitely didn't need to determine the scope of Qing's duties.
So, after a moment of silence, I could only say solemnly: "You will be fine."
——Words without any explanation are like pale and powerless comfort.
But Qingjun seemed to take this as a promise. She shook her head and smiled, then comforted me: "It's okay. After I set the chief strategist as my life goal, I have thought about such a day. But..."
The subsequent content was drowned out by a familiar laughter that echoed in my mind.
......It's not an auditory hallucination, it's not an imagination.
That laughter was filled with endless sorrow and resentment, as if one had encountered numerous calamities in this world and was ultimately unable to break free.
I felt my emotions being stirred, but the next second, the laughter subsided, and he said in an exceptionally calm tone: "Is this the purpose of your disguise?"
camouflage? What disguise?
"Are you going to trick her into staying here and then kill her again?" The voice suddenly increased in volume, as if to wake me up from the wrong path.
Kill... I looked at Qingdun beside me and subconsciously clenched my knuckles, fearing that some uncontrollable accidents would occur.
But I never thought about this! At the same time, I couldn’t help thinking:
Since Qingdun made the inference based on my reaction, the degree of truthfulness should not be high. After all, I am not the real Jing Yuan.
But what about the sound just now? If it depends on its own imagination, then it should agree with what Qingdun said. If it existed independently, why did it implicitly acknowledge the speculation of Qingdun's death?
Stay...Leave...
Which one should I choose?
"Jing Yuan." Qing Dian opened the door but did not cross the dividing line. He just bowed slightly and reminded: "Now is not the time to hesitate."
The soundproofing of the Shen Ce Mansion is very good, so I didn’t hear the sound of fighting outside until the moment I opened the door.
There is no smoke of gunpowder on the battlefield, but it is filled with endless scarlet, the source of which is comrades who are also enemies. The irrational soldiers used the most primitive means of killing. Although the remaining Cloud Riders were able to stop them, they had to send people to protect the people first.
I heard the sound of a sharp blade cutting through flesh, I smelled the smell of blood in the air, and I saw Yunqi joining the battlefield again after being injured.
Finally, I found Yan Qing who was ready to provide support in the front.
Yes, on the line between life and death, there is not even a bit of extra time to consider, but the path in this world is never a multiple-choice question with two choices.
Since that voice said that I killed him, then...
"Qingdun, don't trust me too much." I looked at the standard weapons of the Cloud Riders placed on both sides of the platform and said solemnly, "If I show any abnormality, don't show mercy and kill me."
When Qingdun guessed the possibility of her own death, she was calm, but now she grabbed my wrist and blurted out, "General!"
"Don't worry." I pressed her hand down soothingly, "There is no real death for me. I will live on."
When the riot broke out, Yan Qing was still confined to the Dan Ding Division to recuperate, but as time went on, things became more and more chaotic. Even General Fei Xiao ignored Lingsha Si Ding's ban and ran away. It was even more impossible for him to stay in the Dan Ding Division and wait for news.
The long sword was wrapped around his side, but it failed to fly out as fast as usual.
These demonic soldiers were originally the cloud riders guarding the immortal boat, but now, all their past glory has turned into a sharp blade against their comrades...
"I'm sorry." Yan Qing murmured softly, "But I can't let you go astray."
As if sensing its master's determination, the long sword at his side even took on a hint of chilliness.
The next second, a hand suddenly stretched out and grasped a flying sword.
"General?" Yan Qing looked at the person standing beside him in surprise, "No, Mr. Jing Yuan?"
Jing Yuan nodded slightly in response, and then apologized, "I'll lend you my weapon."
"You want to use a sword?" Yan Qing looked at him in confusion as he stepped forward. It wasn't that there was anything wrong with using a sword, but...
Yan Qing took a few quick steps, stopped beside Jing Yuan and said quickly: "Yan Qing can do it alone, please don't force it, General!"
As he spoke, the flying sword controlled by Yan Qing had already joined the battle, stabbing the demon soldier who was about to leap up for a sneak attack to the ground.
"I'm not your general." He corrected stubbornly, his eyes fell on the surrounded demonic soldiers in front of him, and asked softly: "Do you think they are still your colleagues?"
Yan Qing already had the answer to this question, and he answered it without hesitation: "They were once members of the Cloud Riders, and they should have died as Cloud Riders in the end, not like this..."
However, I would be somewhat hesitant to personally end the life of a teammate with whom I had fought side by side. This is also one of the reasons why Yanqing was unwilling to let "Jingyuan" take action.
On the other hand, he felt that Jingyuan was really in poor health. Even if he had sufficient healing ability, the injuries he had experienced were real.
Therefore, both physically and mentally, Yanqing did not think that "Jingyuan" should participate in this battle.
But "Jing Yuan" rushed forward without any hesitation and joined the battle formation of Yunqi.
The battle formation changed flexibly, placing "Jing Yuan" in the main position.
Yan Qing was supposed to go up to help, but after seeing Jing Yuan's fighting style, he suddenly froze in place.
That is a style of play that puts efficiency first and exchanges injuries for injuries!
Attack, attack, attack... The tough fighting style almost excluded everyone. The Yunqi Army, realizing this, had to retreat and expand the encirclement to make enough space for "Jingyuan".
"Jing Yuan" did not use any energy and acted almost entirely based on his skills.
At the same time, he did not seem to be on the defensive for a moment, as if he was the one surrounded on the battlefield.
Yan Qing could almost sense a desperate scene from that desperate emotion: enemies were everywhere and there would be no reinforcements, so it would be futile even if he conserved his strength to delay time. All he could do was swing his sword non-stop, and even that wouldn't allow him to survive.
The picture overlapped with reality, and Yan Qing almost couldn't resist the urge to step forward to help.
But no one could help Jing Yuan in this state unless they suppressed Jing Yuan first. However, on the battlefield, this was obviously unrealistic, so they could only wait.
The only thing to be thankful for was that Jing Yuan did not really regard all of them as enemies. When the last demonic Yin-body soldier fell down and struggled to get up, he said, "They are probably demonic Yin-bodies caused by drugs. When the Ten Kings Judges arrive, please tell them to put these people together separately."
"Yes, General!"
"Jing Yuan" paused for a moment, looked at the obviously different sword in his hand, and finally did not refute the title.
The bright red blood spread on the pure white clothes like a plum blossom in full bloom. But he continued to give orders as if he was unaware.
Yan Qing pursed his lips and waited for Jing Yuan to finish dispatching the remaining Cloud Riders, then he pulled his sleeve to stop him and said, "General, you can't go on."
Even if the wound stops bleeding quickly due to the healing ability, if it continues like this, it is hard to say whether it will go into shock due to excessive blood loss in a battle.
However, Jing Yuan did not realize the problem and even asked, "Why? Does he have other plans?"
"I don't know." Yan Qing said somewhat depressed. While he is recuperating in Dandingsi, the general will not give him any relevant information and will fully implement his recuperation.
......But the general himself couldn't let go of Luofu no matter what.
——No matter which general it is.
After all, I can't share more of the burden with the general...
Yan Qing's mood seemed a little abnormal. Was it because of these cloud riders who had fallen into the devil's body?
"Don't worry." I raised my hand, wanting to pat Yan Qing to comfort him, but the sticky blood on my hand forced me to clench my fist and cough lightly to cover up the embarrassment. "The effects of drugs are often short-lived. As long as Dan Dingsi can analyze the drug composition in time, they may still be able to recover."
To be honest, I am more accustomed to the irreversible setting of the demonic body, so I didn't quite believe it after I said it, but at this time I always have to have a motivation to fight for it.
In time... I took a deep breath and encouraged myself: "I will calm this chaos as soon as possible."
"General, Yanqing can take care of the rest!" Yanqing said worriedly, but his eyes looked like he wanted to just throw me into the Danding Division and lock me up.
"At least I am a fighting force now." I joked to myself, trying to bring some comfort to Yanqing.
After all, at the beginning I was a weakling who even needed "Yan Qing" to carry me when I escaped, but now I can already have a small battle here.
It seems that dreaming is very beneficial. Not only can it improve your reaction speed, but you can also take the opportunity to learn a few tricks.
But, facing Yan Qing's sincere eyes, I finally relented, "Okay, okay, I will report to Dan Ding Division after this incident is over."
However, after receiving such an assurance, Yan Qing looked even more worried. He repeated with emphasis: "General, please be sure to report to the Danding Division alive."
"Of course." I responded without hesitation. You can't say that there is a morgue or something like that in Dandingsi where one has to lie down for a while after death, right?
Well, it doesn’t seem to be impossible, as long as the body is not cremated immediately.
Yan Qing, who had no idea what Jing Yuan was thinking, breathed a sigh of relief. "So, General, where are we going next?"
Since Chang Letian's situation has been resolved first, the next step is naturally... "Xingcha Sea Center."
Flesh and blood can get hurt and die, but machines don't have to worry about this problem.
The mechanical bird, which has no self-awareness, flaps its wings in the air according to the set program and transmits the captured images to the screen.
The figure in front of the screen stared at the white-haired general stained with blood in the picture, then turned around and sneered, "You said, he is the real General Luofu?"
"You don't believe it? Then how do you explain his current behavior?" Jing Yuan showed a playful smile, "Or do you think that I am more like General Luofu when I come to discuss cooperation with you?"
The man did not respond, but the hidden vigilance in his eyes silently indicated that he did have this idea.
"Of course, of course, that's understandable." Jing Yuan casually changed his posture and lazily looked at the screen in front of him. "After all, who would have thought that General Luofu would lose all his power and couldn't even suppress such a simple disaster?"
The frivolous and derogatory tone made the man hesitate, "What about you?"
"Me?" Jing Yuan stood up, and the gardeners around him immediately became alert.
As if he was amused by their nervousness, Jing Yuan laughed wantonly, and then answered his question in a good mood: "Of course I was caught to take over the shift."
"Captured?" The man sneered, his tone full of mockery, "Why, you were captured by General Luofu who has lost his ability to fight?"
"How could that be?" Jing Yuan walked to his side and looked at him with interest, but soon seemed to lose interest and boredly adjusted the different mechanical bird images. "The reason why I was caught is naturally because I like this Luofu."
His eyes were gleaming with determination, like a child facing his favorite toy.
Only Jingyuan himself knew that his attention had never been diverted from the video screen.
He had indeed never revealed this plan to anyone else, and he had indeed thought that "Jing Yuan" would take over the command of this operation.
But that's command power! Weren't we just going to let this guy rush into the battlefield without any care and get himself into this state!
...It's my fault. I should have considered his condition more. Jing Yuan reflected in his heart, but his face still had an expectant expression: "Don't you think Luofu is more interesting at this time?"
After saying this, Jing Yuan sighed with regret, "It's a pity that you haven't seen the future Luofu."
This was a risky move, as he could only rely on his understanding of "Jing Yuan" and the records left by Oleander to play the "future Jing Yuan" they imagined.
The record says: "If he can be captured, Luofu will surely fall into civil strife."
Therefore, Jing Yuan played a completely different role as General Luofu. He didn't care about the chaos on Luofu, nor did he mind how such chaos was suppressed.
The record says: "A general Luofu who had fallen into the body of a demon did not hesitate to turn himself into a useless person with no ability to protect himself."
Therefore, Jing Yuan played the role of a general who was obsessed with Luofu. He truly loves Luofu and will not allow Luofu to be threatened, even by himself.
However, he did not have the ability to predict the future. He did not expect that the Yunqi under his command would be ambushed and lured into the state of evil. He also did not expect that "Jing Yuan" would adopt such an extreme method.
Therefore, Jingyuan secretly changed his story, misleading them into thinking that Oleander had found the wrong person on August 4, thus leaving a wrong record.
Fortunately, the other party did not notice this, and even revealed a little pride because he finally managed to win the game: "How do you know I haven't seen it? It's just broken walls and ruins, with no one living there."
"You know?" Jing Yuan showed a hint of surprise at the right time, "Then do you know the reason?"
The man seemed to be suddenly awakened, and looked over with trembling pupils, "That's right..."
He murmured to himself, "You're right, this is the right way..."
What's going on? Jing Yuan frowned slightly, and in line with his character, he revealed a bit of annoyance without disguising it.
After a few more meaningless repetitions, the man finally revealed accurate information: "Yes, it was you who massacred the Cloud Riders, destroyed the system, and overthrew Luofu. If that's the case, how could you be a useless person who can't even protect yourself?"
He muttered, and finally smiled with satisfaction, and reached out his hand to invite Jing Yuan back to his seat, "Now we can talk about cooperation."
He continued talking, completely unaware of Jing Yuan's cold expression, or perhaps, after thinking about this incident, he felt that Jing Yuan's current attitude was friendly enough.
I don't feel like I'm in a very good condition. I was just standing on the side of the road, but I always felt like I saw something coming out. But when asked about this, Yanqing said he saw nothing.
After I looked around hesitantly again, Yan Qing finally couldn't help but ask, "General, are you seeing any hallucinations?"
Hallucination? It was only after Yan Qing said this that I thought of this possibility.
I deliberately ignored my surroundings and just stared at the ground in front of me. The stable land seemed to be distorted and turned into a dark abyss.
I was the only one left around, and even the sounds had disappeared.
Countless red and black ghosts crawled out from the ground, step by step... They muttered words that no one could understand in their wordless voices, like a curse over and over again.
"Am I poisoned?" I tried hard to make a sound, but I couldn't hear Yanqing's response.
Well, think of something else, like the current situation. Suppressing these unrests is not a problem; the bigger problem is who is causing these unrests and what is his ultimate goal.
The red and black ghost suddenly grabbed my ankle, and a chill spread throughout my body, as if I had stepped into a glacier in the cold winter.
"Yanqing..." I called the young man who should have been by my side again, but still got no response.
Then, a second hand grabbed my other ankle, completely pinning me to the spot.
Blood was smeared on my body as the ghosts moved. Just when I thought I might be "eaten", I finally heard Yan Qing's voice.
He said, "General, did Yanqing do something wrong?"
The resentful tone sounded like an intimate joke, but I could clearly see that there was no smile in his eyes.
...Another illusion. I once again began to doubt the possibility that I was suffering from schizophrenia.
Before I could consider whether to further prove this possibility to myself, a sharp pain brought me back to reality.
The wound was being pressed hard. When I looked over, Blade immediately withdrew his hand and snorted coldly, "Oh, you still feel pain?"
I looked at the "blade" carefully, and after a few seconds I was sure that this was indeed not an illusion.
Yan Qing, who was standing beside me, was relieved to see me come to my senses. He humbly asked Blade, "Why is the general like this?"
Perhaps because of the current situation, or perhaps because of Yan Qing's address, "Blade" looked at him with some displeasure, and said, "He has a psychological trauma on the battlefield, and he will become like this when he steps into the battlefield, so we can handle these things, you shouldn't call him."
Although I know that Blade said this just to put me in a safe environment, I have to admit that there may be some truth in what he said.
Psychological trauma…I continued to stare at the ground, but nothing happened this time.
Looking at the Ten Kings Judges who arrived at the scene, I suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Will the blood or anything else of the soldiers who are guided into the devil's body by drugs have an impact on others?
The one who came to arrest the person was the judge of the Juzi Department. Perhaps Jing Yuan could remember the judge's name, but for me, I could only skip the question of addressing him and politely said, "Please stay."
Fortunately, although the Ten Kings Department is a parallel department within the Six Imperial Guards, Jing Yuan’s reputation is enough to allow the Ten Kings Department to make some concessions without violating principles.
The captured demon soldier struggled back and forth, and blood continued to flow from his wounds. In just a few minutes, I saw the rising vision again.
Stuck at the brink of death, I immediately took a few steps back and freed myself from the illusion.
Perhaps it was because the act of forcibly escaping was too shocking, I felt like the whole world was spinning as I moved backward. Uncontrollable gasps gradually escaped from my throat, and I subconsciously raised my hand to find a support point nearby.
However, before I could reach out, a hand silently provided me with support. Even without looking back, I knew it was the "blade".
The warriors of the Ten Oushis all wear masks, and judging from Yanqing and "Blade" who were not affected at all, the impact of this thing is limited, and it is most likely just a side effect.
But just in case... "After detaining these people together, please do not have frequent contact with them. It would be best if the guards were rotated several times."
The leading judge bowed in silence, as if in response. I don't know if they will actually listen to my advice, but it's the best I can do.
After I calmed down, I looked at the bloody sword in my hand and silently picked up a clean piece of clothes to wipe it clean. This set of clothes is really worthless, and now it has reached its last use.
The only pity is that I don’t have a sword of my own. Yan Qing does have quite a few, but if I encounter any problems again, I can’t go to Yan Qing to borrow one, right?
"Yanqing." I reluctantly returned the sword to Yanqing, but met his complicated gaze.
...is there something wrong? Before Yanqing took over, I immediately reviewed it again. Well, it's very clean. There shouldn't be any missed bloodstains.
When "Blade" said that the general had a psychological trauma on the battlefield, Yan Qing actually had no doubts. After all, Jing Yuan was in a pause for quite a while at that time, and no matter how he was called, he couldn't regain consciousness.
But afterwards, "Jing Yuan" deliberately left people from the Ten Kings Division to verify it, which was enough to explain the true situation.
What's more, the general looked at the sword in his hand with such care and concern, and even when he finally returned it, there was a hint of reluctance in his expression.
It is clear that he does not have any so-called psychological trauma, he is just restricted from possessing weapons.
When it comes to matters related to the general, Yan Qing has always been determined to get to the bottom of things. Therefore, he hesitated for only a second before asking, "General, why do you want to use a sword?"
This is not a difficult question to answer, Yanqing himself can give several possibilities. The simplest one is: compared to a formation knife, a sword is lighter and will not put too much burden on the body.
But Jing Yuan hesitated for a moment as if he didn't know how to start, and finally said helplessly: "Because my weapon is broken, I have to borrow yours. If you mind, I can buy your sword, and then..."
Seeing that the topic was about to be taken elsewhere by "Jing Yuan", Yan Qing immediately took over his sword and interrupted, "If the weapon is broken, it can be handed over to the Engineering Department for repair. The general should have said so earlier."
"It's my fault." Jing Yuan admitted it straightforwardly, "If I have time, I will go to the Industrial and Construction Department to take a look."
"If you have time to trust the general, you might as well trust me and never buy a sword again!" Yan Qing pretended to be angry and said, "Anyway, I often go to the factory, so why don't you give the weapon to Yan Qing!"
"Jing Yuan" was unable to give a reply for a long time, and finally looked at "Ren" silently.
So Blade chuckled and responded for him: "It's not your turn to worry about this."
Why? Yanqing almost wanted to ask directly, and this undisguised behavior clearly stated: "That's it, Yanqing, I voluntarily accept the control."
But if his abilities had not been restricted, "Jing Yuan" wouldn't have had to fight so hard, let alone get covered in blood.
Yan Qing had never seen the general in such an embarrassing moment, but the person concerned didn't think it was a big deal and even accepted the support of the "blade" as if it was normal.
They are harming the general!
Taking advantage of the supporting action, "Ren" silently pinched my arm and signaled me with his eyes: Do you feel that Yan Qing seems to have some hostility towards us?
I thought about it carefully, and apart from Yanqing's not-so-hostile idea of wanting to pack me up and throw me into Dandingsi, he was truly a considerate and sunny boy!
So I shook my head sincerely: I don’t think so.
「Blade」thought seriously for a moment, and finally defined this as a role gap. After all, in terms of identity, "Jing Yuan" is a general of Luofu, and he himself is a wanted criminal of Luofu.
Oh no, that's not right, he is a wanted criminal in the entire universe, and the bounty is over 8 billion!
I looked at the inexplicably proud "Blade" with confusion, "Why didn't I know you had this habit?"
You are so proud even when you feel hostility. Don’t you have the m attribute? !
The familiarity between us made Blade instantly understand what I meant. He pinched my arm again and threatened: "I don't know who it is. Before leaving, he specifically told us not to mess around, but when we turned around and met again..."
He glanced up and down at the wounds on my body, and finally said through gritted teeth, "I think you're the only one who shouldn't act alone!"
I wanted to argue that I did not act alone, and that Yan Qing and other Yunqi were with me all the way, but judging from the results, it was wise to keep my mouth shut at this time.
So I consciously ignored the previous topic and took out the jade sign to report to Qingdun.
Qingdun responded quickly: Received, it has been confirmed that the last outbreak point has been dealt with.
The matter was settled, but I still felt uneasy because Jing Yuan had not returned yet.
The outbreak of this drug will only be a one-time event, after which Luofu and even all the immortal boats will take precautions against it. The enemy has paid so much, and their ultimate goal cannot be just to undermine the public security of Luofu.
In other words, everything went too smoothly. If Jing Yuan hadn't eliminated the enemy's secret arrangements, the enemy would definitely have had a backup plan.
So until Jingyuan comes back, I have to keep holding on.
But I didn't expect that this so-called back-up would come so quickly.
Almost as soon as this thought came to my mind, I saw a flash of golden light suddenly appear behind Yan Qing.
When Yan Qing turned around with awareness, the sharp tip of the spear had almost reached his face.
At this distance, there is no time to raise your hand or sword to block!
Yan Qing subconsciously wanted to dodge, at least to make the wound less fatal. But just as he made a move, he felt his shoulders being pulled back forcefully.
Ding—the sharp blade poked hard on the formation knife, making a continuous buzzing sound. Before the formation sword was about to change its moves, the practitioner of the secret teachings of the King of Medicine took the lead in using the force to retreat.
"General..." Yan Qing called out slowly. In addition to being afraid, an indescribable sense of crisis suddenly arose in his heart.
Although it was inappropriate, the first thing he noticed after being rescued by "Jing Yuan" was the formation sword - Shihuo Mengshen.
It has been well maintained and has no obvious cracks. It can even be said to be as good as new. It is obviously not damaged to the point of being unusable as "Jingyuan" said.
"Jingyuan" lied... Come to think of it, this was not unexpected, but Yanqing still felt a little unwilling.
"Yanqing" and the others knew almost everything about "Jingyuan". General Jingyuan also knew his situation, and Qingdun also knew his information. Only he himself seemed to be excluded, and could not help in any other way except for the matter of Hu Lei.
Soon, Yan Qing had no time to pay attention to this.
"Jing Yuan", who was holding the Shihuo Meng Shen, seemed to be controlled by the magic sword. Endless murderous intent raged outward, engulfing everyone regardless of friend or foe.
Yan Qing immediately ordered the Yunqi who had not yet left: "Everyone, evacuate immediately!"
Although Jing Yuan was facing the enemy at this time, it was hard to say whether other people would be affected within the attack range.
In this situation, he was no longer worried about whether "Jing Yuan" would be injured by the secret teachings of the King of Medicine. Now he was more worried about whether "Jing Yuan" would follow in the footsteps of General Feixiao, or... he would be exhausted and fall into a life-threatening situation due to being unable to bear the excessive energy use.
Yan Qing noticed that "Blade" quietly tightened the broken sword handle, seemingly waiting for "Jing Yuan" to end the battle, and then hit him with the hilt of the sword.
A team of people with the secret teachings of the King of Medicine was not difficult to deal with for Jing Yuan who had entered the "violent" state. The battle was over in just a few minutes.
"Jing Yuan" turned around and looked. The murderous intent that remained in his body had not yet faded, but he controlled it surprisingly well and had no intention of affecting them at all.
His eyes passed over each person one by one, and finally stopped at Jing Yuan, who was leaning against the wall at the edge and was now gesturing with a smile.
"Jing Yuan" obviously didn't notice when Jing Yuan arrived, so his gaze stayed on him a little longer, and only then did others gradually notice Jing Yuan's existence.
After a while, Jing Yuan put away the weapon in his hand and said in a hoarse voice: "Is it solved?"
Jing Yuan nodded slowly: "Well, it's solved for the time being."
The word "temporarily" proves that this matter has not completely ended. It can only be said that there will not be any major disturbances in the short term.
If you don't remove the roots of the grass, it will grow again in the spring breeze.
Jing Yuan remained silent for a long time, and finally smiled and said, "I have a plan."
Jing Yuan didn’t even ask what the plan was, and responded directly: “I don’t agree.”
Everyone present looked at them in bewilderment, and as the two generals refused to explain, they and their comrades beside them looked at each other in bewilderment.
The next moment, the threat that had just dissipated spread again. Jing Yuan no longer held a weapon in his hand, but the force of his words hit everyone's heart, "You know, I don't even need your consent."
Although Jing Yuan was covered in wounds, his thunderous momentum made everyone slow down their breathing.
A Cloud Rider had a sad face and quietly poked the person next to him with his elbow: Do you think we should leave quietly?
The person next to him shook his head silently and signaled with his eyes: Do you dare to move?
In their view, the confrontation between the two generals was nothing more than a disagreement, and their serious and responsible attitude had led to the current situation. In the final analysis, it was all for Luofu, and there was no possibility that they should help anyone if the two fought.
But the next second, Jing Yuan walked closer and stopped when he was only one person away from him. He then raised his hand and pressed it on Jing Yuan's shoulder.
As if all his strength was dissipated by this light pressure, "Jingyuan" was unable to support himself and half-knelt on the ground in an instant. Even "Ren" who had been keeping an eye on the situation beside him was unable to react.
The originally relaxed atmosphere became stagnant again, and the Yunqi Army even added a series of possibilities, including that the general was impersonated.
Only the two parties involved didn't notice any difference.
Even Jing Yuan still argued at this time, "I have enough self-healing ability, now is the best time!"
But Jing Yuan still insisted: "I don't agree."
I do not understand! Although I still don’t know the complete story of the whole incident, nor do I know the real mastermind behind it, no matter who it is, there will always be a joint appeal by Master Long.
For Master Long, it doesn't matter who he overthrows. Jing Yuan even only needs to give him some symbolic protection, and I can directly step into the Youyu Prison!
Xianzhou will certainly not execute me, and even exile is impossible. And in the prison, I will definitely be able to come into contact with the remnants of the Medicine King's secret teachings.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I can take this opportunity to contact the many remnants and completely eliminate them.
If we miss this opportunity, the remnants will forever become an unstable bomb and remain in Luofu.
Of course, I could also pretend to be out of control and destroy things, or even better, pick a fight with someone. In this way, even if Jing Yuan disagreed, he had no suitable reason to leave me free in Luofu.
If possible, I certainly don't want to do anything to damage public property, but I did not expect that Jing Yuan would be so determined in this regard that there is no room for maneuver!
I must have a reason, otherwise the feeling of missing the opportunity will be as sad as not receiving the five stars of my choice!
But when I asked for the reason, Jing Yuan's gilded eyes dimmed, as if a cat that had lost a lot before was unwilling to lose anything around it again.
He said, “They’re going to kill you.”
Hearing this, Blade immediately gave me a threatening look, and he put his index and middle fingers together and slashed from the left side of my neck to the right side.
"No." I retorted as if I didn't notice, and even suspected that Yu Jingyuan said it on purpose for "Ren" to hear, but what bad intentions could a cat have!
I ignored this possibility and said firmly, "Even if they do, I can make them give up this idea."
This is immortal self-confidence.
I didn't say the last sentence, but Jing Yuan responded as if he knew it, "But most of the time, it's easier to live than to die."
He subconsciously glanced in the direction of the "blade", then closed his eyes and sighed.
All the heavy emotions faded away with this sigh, and in the end, I only heard him say: "Good night, sleep well."
Blade had a completely unsurprising expression. He picked up the unconscious Jing Yuan and casually stopped a Cloud Rider who was only slightly injured: "Can you drive a Star Raft?"
The Cloud Rider was stunned for a moment. He subconsciously looked in the direction of Jing Yuan. After receiving a signal, he led the way and said, "This way."
Others may not have noticed the abnormality, but Yan Qing saw it at a glance. After everyone else had left, Yan Qing walked up to Jing Yuan and anxiously supported him, saying, "General, you..."
"Yanqing." Jing Yuan whispered his name, and Yanqing pursed his lips in understanding and said no more.
If it had not been so difficult to support himself, Jing Yuan would never have stood against the wall at the beginning. But since he had managed to do so, it meant that he still needed to maintain it now.
