Chapter 778 Finale (IX)
Under normal circumstances, the mind-controlling technique targets someone whose realm is lower than that of the person performing the technique.
However, Tang Chen intended to control a third-grade warrior whose realm was far higher than his, which made it impossible for him to achieve "complete control" and could not pose any threat to Lu Hongji.
More importantly, he has to pay a huge price for this.
When nothing can be changed, it is hard to say what Tang Chen's motive is for still wanting to "overstep" his authority to control the man in black.
Or perhaps the answer to this question should be different in the eyes of different people.
In Shen Ran's opinion, he should be delaying time.
In Lu Hongji's opinion, these were undoubtedly warriors who would risk their lives to protect their master.
In the eyes of several men in black, this person was more or less crazy.
In Li Zimu's opinion, his hands in his sleeves trembled slightly, but his expression did not change much. He just frowned, and after a moment he said in a deep voice:
“That’s enough!”
“.”
That's enough.
This sentence was said to both Lu Hongji and Tang Chen.
However, Tang Chen did not stop this action which was undoubtedly suicidal, and still stared at the man in black with his bloodshot eyes.
And Lu Hongji did not stop him, but smiled even more.
"Haha, King Feng, I didn't expect this person to have the ability to seize souls and control minds."
"I want to see if he can hold on."
"Return to the King!"
Li Zimu interrupted Lu Hongji with a cold tone: "Don't you want to search me? I will let you search me!"
“.”
Looking at Li Zimu with a half-smile, Lu Hongji was not annoyed. He turned his head and winked at the other man in black.
The latter immediately walked up to Li Zimu, bowed expressionlessly, and began to search him. He closed his eyes and bit his lips.
Standing motionless in the same place, Li Zimu did not resist.
But her face gradually turned pale, her body trembled constantly, and after a few breaths, tears even ran down her cheeks.
At this moment, she looked like an empress who could not bear the humiliation.
However, the reason why she was so painful was not because she was "humiliated", but because of Tang Chen.
Li Zimu knew that Tang Chen did all this for him.
But she couldn't reveal any flaws, so she could only take this only opportunity to shed a few tears. To be honest, no matter whether Li Zimu had used or deceived Tang Chen before, no matter whether what she said about marrying Tang Chen was true or false.
At least at this moment, Li Zimu's pain and emotion came from the bottom of his heart.
She kept praying for a miracle to happen and praying that Tang Chen would not be so stupid.
But the latter is like a moth flying into a flame, regardless of life or death, as if he would not give up until he turned into a wisp of ash. Compared to the man who would blush because of Li Zimu's words, Tang Chen is undoubtedly brave now.
Even though everything he did was meaningless.
"Interesting. Just really stupid."
Ignoring Li Zimu who was being searched, Lu Hongji walked up to Tang Chen and looked down at him.
Looking at the man at his feet whose eyes were full of blood and whose breath was extremely weak, he shook his head with some emotion.
"Even if you are a dead warrior, you should die for something meaningful."
“.”
Die for something meaningful.
Hearing this, Tang Chen did not react at all, but Li Zimu's body trembled violently.
Because she was very familiar with this sentence.
At that time in Zhongling County, Wei Changtian used this sentence to make her give up the idea of seeking death.
And now, isn't the significance of Tang Chen exactly himself?
The trembling of his hands became more and more intense, and the struggle in his heart became more and more intense.
Then at a certain moment, Li Zimu suddenly opened his eyes, turned back and looked at Tang Chen, as if he wanted to say something.
But at this moment, Tang Chen seemed to have finally reached the point where he was running out of energy.
The clenched fists loosened little by little, and the blood and tears slowly stopped.
“Plop!”
The man in black, who had been controlled for dozens of breaths, fell to the ground helplessly, and suddenly got up after a moment, his no longer empty eyes filled with panic.
It can be seen that he has broken free from Tang Chen's control.
Then this also means
"Your Majesty."
Using the last bit of his strength, Tang Chen turned his head with difficulty to look at Li Zimu, whose face was full of tears. At this moment, his breath was extremely weak.
But even at this time, he still used the title "Your Majesty".
“.”
Her eyes froze, and Li Zimu felt as if her heart was suddenly tightened by a big hand, the pain was so severe that she almost couldn't stand.
She knew she shouldn't speak at this moment, but she still opened her mouth subconsciously and tremblingly.
However, Tang Chen did not make things difficult for her in the end.
"His Majesty."
"My subordinates, if they die, they die."
"You must live, live"
“.”
The candlelight was dim, broken porcelain was scattered all over the floor, the burnt screen was left with only a charred frame, the dim flames reflected the desolate sight of blood.
Dozens of breaths later, when Xu Suisui ran out of the compartment with a pale face and stood at a loss in the secret room, Lu Hongji had already left with Li Zimu.
Of course he couldn't find anything from the latter.
After all, Xu Suisui was already at the end of his rope, with only the life-saving item left by Wei Changtian.
Li Zimu naturally wanted to leave this thing to Xu Suisui, so this fake empress was taken away by Lu Hongji.
"Mr. Shen, Mr. Tang, Mr. Tang"
Standing in the secret room, looking at Shen Ran and Tang Chen lying in a pool of blood, Xu Suisui was so anxious that she almost cried.
She wanted to run out to ask for help, but was afraid that Lu Hongji had not gone far, so she could only dig out a few bottles of pills from the secret room and hurriedly wanted to give them to the two of them.
Shen Ran was fine. Although he was seriously injured, he was not dead. After taking the elixir, his breathing gradually became stable.
But Tang Chen said , "Mr. Tang, don't scare me."
Kneeling beside Tang Chen, who had his eyes closed, Xu Suisui reached out his hand tremblingly to check the latter's breath.
The breath was intermittent and the heartbeat was barely detectable.
The good news is that Tang Chen is not dead yet.
The bad news is that Tang Chen is about to die.
He was already seriously injured, and then the "mind control technique" was forcibly performed. If it were an ordinary person, he would have died by now.
Fortunately, Tang Chen is the son of heaven, so he is still holding on.
"What, what should I do?"
Biting her lips tightly, Xu Suisui looked confused and helpless.
If she had system points at this moment, she would probably switch to a mica fungus to save Tang Chen without hesitation.
But unfortunately she didn't.
So, you can't kill Shen Ran to save Tang Chen.
In addition, Li Zimu, who had already been taken away by Lu Hongji and was destined to die , sat in a pool of blood in a daze. Xu Suisui, who had just escaped death, did not have any joy of surviving the disaster, but only a deep sense of powerlessness.
But at this moment [Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully changing part of the plot, reward system points: 500]
“Who is it?!!!”
“Clang clang clang!!!”
Outside the Jinhua Palace, in a rarely visited garden.
Just when Xu Suisui inexplicably obtained 500 system points and immediately exchanged it for a mica fungus for Tang Chen to take, the sound of swords being drawn and roared resounded through the night sky.
Four men in black held long swords in their hands, staring at one direction with extremely ugly expressions.
Although Lu Hongji did not draw his sword, his expression at this moment was extremely grim.
Only Li Zimu's eyes looked somewhat empty, as if he no longer cared about what was happening around him.
It was not until a moment later that a man slowly emerged from the darkness and she suddenly came back to her senses from her daze, her eyes instantly filled with indescribable astonishment.
It was obvious that the man who blocked the road was preparing to rescue Li Zimu.
However, the person who came was not Wei Changtian, who was the most likely person to appear.
In fact, he was the most unlikely one. "Brother Xianping?"
"W-Why are you here?!"
