With a click, a crisp and sharp cracking sound came.
Xiang Ke, who was guarding the door outside the house, noticed the strange sound and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
"not good!"
Xiang Ke broke into the room, and his alarm bells immediately rang, his eyes flickering and blurry.
I saw a light blue barrier in front of me, which gradually began to release its energy to the surroundings with bursts of cracking sounds.
Xiang Ke waved his hand and cast a transparent barrier on it.
As the light faded, the pale blue barrier shattered within the transparent barrier.
Fortunately, I discovered it in time, otherwise the noise would have caused unnecessary trouble.
Xiang Ke walked in with the help of someone and saw Gu Juechen looking weak and slumped on the bed.
Then he noticed the abnormal fluctuation of spiritual energy around him, and the brocade curtain beside the bed was stained with red blood.
A pair of raised eyebrows were furrowed together, and a flash of white light flashed in his eyes.
He quickly sat on the bed and helped Gu Juechen up with both hands. The blood at the corner of his mouth was particularly eye-catching.
When Xiang Ke extended his spiritual consciousness and came into contact with Gu Juechen's spiritual consciousness space.
His brows were furrowed so tightly that there was no gap between them.
My Lord, you have really gone too far this time.
In the azure spiritual world, the light was slowly fading, and it was already at its last gasp.
It seems that the man still refuses to let go, which is why the Lord is in such trouble.
The backlash of mental strength will definitely not be fatal, but it is the most deadly torment.
As expected, with her appearance, the master will never be able to let go of the past.
If this continues, the consequences will be far more serious.
Xiang Ke sat cross-legged and faced Gu Juechen, their hands clasped together.
He put his middle finger and index finger together to draw out a stream of mental power from his atrium, and gradually injected it into Gu Juechen's consciousness along the sliding trajectory of the tip of the paper.
The two forces collided, and the blue one sensed that there was no danger, so it restrained its breath.
The azure-blue mental power spread out from the center in waves, instantly swallowing up the white mental power.
After that, the color of the water waves gradually recovered, emitting a dazzling blue light and creating a surging wave for a moment.
Then calm returned.
After Gu Juechen's mental strength was relieved, his expression relaxed. During the intersection of the two forces, his forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat.
His face showed a hideous expression of pain.
His body began to tremble unconsciously, and at this time, Gu Juechen's face and body were gradually covered with a thin layer of blue frost.
When Xiang Ke saw Gu Juechen's appearance at this moment, he unconsciously fought against himself in his heart.
Looking so miserable, how could he still be the aloof, selfless person admired by everyone?
If possible, I will bear this pain for my master.
Xiang Ke's lips trembled slightly, and he clenched his two rows of white teeth.
But he also unconsciously relaxed a little in his heart.
In this situation, the Lord is almost out of pain, even though the process is excruciating.
But when this layer of frost disappears, it will be the time for the Lord to recover.
Xiang Ke stood up and cast a more solid barrier around Gu Juechen.
After staying for a moment, he turned and left.
My Lord, you can only rely on yourself now, so I won't bother you.
…
Jiuyou, Tianyun, Xiaoyuan Cave.
"Li Mu, I'm afraid you will still lose this game of chess to me! Hahaha..." An old but energetic laugh slowly echoed in a cave.
Elder Li Mu glanced at him and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He remained silent and focused all his energy on the entire game of chess.
With a click, a white chess piece fell from the chessboard. The sound was crisp and pleasant to the ears, and a bright and shining light flew into the lower right corner of the chessboard. That was the first ray of light.
The person facing him was Elder Li Mu.
"The placement of chess pieces depends on my will. If I cannot control the outcome of this game, then I have been playing chess with you for tens of thousands of years in vain. Hahaha!" This laughter was even more contagious.
It is thick, and there seems to be no worldly distractions mixed in it.
Seeing this situation, the person on the opposite side frowned and alarm bells rang in his heart.
this……
How could this game be cracked so easily? It should have been an unsolvable game, how could it be cracked so easily?
He stared at Elder Li Mu with eyes wide open, his eyes full of disbelief.
Doubts continued to rise in my heart.
Could it be that he has been stabilizing the situation over the years...
Suddenly, he seemed to have figured out a lot of things, his brows relaxed, and a smile appeared on his face instantly.
The old man's laugh suddenly rang out, but this time there was more relief in it.
"In that case, I admire you. This one round is better than ten thousand rounds. Li Mu, you are really shrewd and calculating. Hahahaha..."
"Mu Jiu, this way you can solve that puzzled situation."
Elder Mu Jiu sighed lightly, turned his head to look into the distance outside the cave, and his heart was filled with waves of emotion.
"I'm afraid it's solved."
After that, the two of them looked at each other in silence and chuckled.
Li Mu didn't move at all.
Mu Jiu looked down at his palm, where a blue light was alternating between weak and strong.
A frown appeared on his brow again.
This force has begun to become weaker and weaker.
I don't know if he is out of trouble now.
Li Mu looked up at Mu Jiu's dazed expression, and his eyes were filled with emotions.
He shook his head silently.
There was an unquenchable inner energy that kept shaking in my heart.
…
The next day.
The palace was in a state of excitement.
"Have you heard that the Fifth Prince's return to the palace this time was actually His Majesty's intention? What do you think His Majesty's intention is?"
"You dare to ask such a question? Aren't you afraid of...getting into trouble?" A timid but naturally persuasive voice gradually lowered its tone and looked around.
Only let down your guard when you are sure there is no danger.
"We just need to do our duty in the palace, why are you talking so much nonsense?"
"Actually, many of us are quite curious, so we're talking about it."
"What you said about doing your duty is just cowardice. If you are afraid, don't listen."
These words successfully stopped the man who had just warned them. He left the crowd and went to the well nearby. He continued doing what he was doing, washing the clothes in the basin.
There was a flash of disdain in her eyes, and her red lips were raised frivolously.
The group of palace maids looked at the man with contempt and continued their discussion with great interest.
"The Fifth Prince returned to the palace this time out of concern that His Majesty wanted to cut off all his escape routes. Think about it, if His Majesty had forgiven him, why would he have issued a secret decree allowing him to return to the palace? Furthermore, the Fifth Prince only brought one person back with him this time. Think carefully."
"I think that makes a lot of sense."
"I don't think so." Another clear and proud voice sounded, with a faint smile on the red lips.
"If His Majesty disliked him, he wouldn't have given him the opportunity to return to the palace. However, this time, I believe His Majesty is waiting for an opportunity... to restore the Fifth Prince's status legitimately."
It was quiet at this time and no one spoke.
Obviously, this statement was beyond everyone's expectations, but they felt it was very convincing.
Maybe...
As soon as these words were spoken, they spread everywhere as if they had wings.
Everyone knows it.
