Chapter 38: Setting Fire to the City



A blatant conspiracy.

The mark formed by the life card shines in the palm of the hand, the pure gold is extremely dazzling.

Of course, this mark is just an external representation.

Even if Chen Kuang's hand was cut off now, the connection between their lives would still exist. As long as he had a thought, he could instantly make those practitioners die with him.

This is the deepest and strongest connection. Perhaps someone can sever it, but that does not include Shen Xingzhu, who is halfway into the mysterious realm.

Shen Xingzhu looked at him with gloomy eyes.

"Of course I know."

She said.

"Li Hongling wanted to hide it from me. After I left, she blew up the entire imperial city and buried the more than 2,000 people in the Liang Kingdom Palace, along with Su Yu's body."

When Chen Kuang heard this, he laughed out loud with a playful expression.

She really knew about Li Hongling's little tricks!

And this is exactly the situation she wants to see and personally induce.

Using the illusion of mercy as bait, once Li Hongling really detonates those mountain-breaking mines, Shen Xingzhu will kill Li Hongling immediately without leaving any room for mercy.

What Shen Xingzhu was enjoying was exactly this kind of killing game.

If she showed any trace of doubt, Li Hongling would be afraid and would not dare to take action due to the prestige of Xuanshen Dao Sect, but she just pretended to be indifferent.

It’s a pity that Li Hongling died at the hands of Chen Kuang in the end.

Shen Xingzhu himself was also corrupted by Chen Kuang's faith in Taoism.

Everything she had planned turned into an unpredictable mess because of Chen Kuang.

When Shen Xingzhu heard his laughter, he suddenly felt a little annoyed.

It's like this again...

Why?

This guy, his realm has obviously fallen back to the awakening realm, and the pain all over his body should have erupted at once. In addition, he is in a desperate situation and should be in excruciating pain at this time. Why does he still dare to laugh?

Shen Xingzhu stared at him, and emphasized in a heavier tone:

"Of course I know that Li Hongling planted the mountain-breaking mine, but you're just being wishful thinking if you want to threaten me with this."

Chen Kuang smiled and said, "What do you mean by that, Fairy?"

Shen Xingzhu said, "There are no mortals left in the city now. Whether these cultivators came willingly or were deceived by you, they have already entrusted their lives to you. If you don't want them to die because of you, just don't kill the mortals."

"If you don't know, then the fault is mine, but if you know it clearly, then you are just killing someone with a borrowed knife."

She said calmly, "It's your fault they died because of you. What does it have to do with me?"

"What a good trick to kill with a borrowed knife."

"That's very clear. It seems the fairy is really hard to fool."

Chen Kuang sighed: "However, the fairy is not going to save the people in the imperial city, so..."

"Will the fairy save the entire Liang Kingdom, and even the people of the world, or not?"

Shen Xingzhu's eyes narrowed, and the trace of irritation in his heart suddenly grew.

Just like the disrupted sound of a piano, or the ripples on a lake caused by a stone, it can never be calmed down again.

The entire Liang State, and even the whole world?

You, a villain in the Enlightenment Realm, actually make irresponsible remarks about the world?

It's so crazy!

In the past, when Shen Xingzhu heard practitioners in the Enlightenment Realm discussing worldly affairs, it would be like hearing an ant talking about trying to trip an elephant. He would just pretend he didn't hear it and wouldn't even consider it a joke.

However, at this moment, when Chen Kuang said this, Shen Xingzhu could hardly ignore it.

She even had a vague idea of ​​acquiescence in her mind.

This guy really dares to do what he says, and he can really do it!

But...what on earth could allow him to use the world as leverage?

a long time.

Seeing Shen Xingzhu remained silent, Chen Kuang laughed.

"Why are you hesitating, fairy?"

"I am just a mean person, and my words are wild and arrogant. Why take them seriously? Why not chop off my head with a sword right now, and the fairy will be relieved of her worries."

The more confident he was, the more hesitant Shen Xingzhu became.

Shen Xingzhu took a deep breath, suppressed his irritation, and said coldly, "What do you want to do?"

Chen Kuang put his hands on Chu Wenruo's thin shoulders and said, "Fairy, have you heard a secret?"

"A secret that perhaps only the Liang royal family is qualified to know."

Shen Xingzhu frowned and looked at Chu Wenruo.

Chu Wenruo widened her eyes, as if she had not expected that the secret she had told to save Chen Kuang's life was just a way to pass the time.

Now it actually plays a key role.

Chen Kuang continued quietly, "Since the fairy knew about the secret passage where the gunpowder was buried, she should have discovered it long ago. Those secret passages are filled with a lot of spiritual energy."

Shen Xingzhu felt increasingly uneasy: "So what? All the secret passages are arranged according to the Qiankun magic, clearly to maintain the formation of the imperial city's protective barrier."

"oh?"

Qiankunshushu...another term I don't understand.

However, it turns out that this is how other people view the significance of the existence of spiritual energy in the secret passage.

Chen Kuang said slowly, "The national barrier has been broken. Fairy, is the spiritual energy in the secret passage still there?"

Shen Xingzhu's breathing stopped.

Chen Kuang understood and said with a smile: "It seems that he is still there."

Shen Xingzhu appeared beside Chen Kuang in an instant, with his sword at his neck. "What is that secret formation used for?"

Chen Kuang wanted to say a few more words, but after calculating that the time was about up, he shrugged and said:

"Just below that prison, there's a demon-suppressing prison, where an ancient demon with unparalleled cultivation is sealed."

"And with the power of those mountain-breaking thunders, it only takes a moment to blow the seal apart."
