Xie Shu's eyes were dull, he held a sharp blade with the tip of the blade drooping, and stabbed towards his own chest with all his strength.
Xiao Chenyan raised his hand and held his wrist to stop Xie Shu's self-harm.
With Xie Shu's strength, it was impossible for him to compete with Xiao Chenyan, but Xiao Chenyan felt another force from Xie Shu that was confronting him.
That power controlled Xie Shu, asking him to cut open his chest and dig out his own heart.
The sound of "crack" was like the sound of muscles and bones being dislocated.
Xiao Chenyan looked gloomy.
That was the sound of Xie Shu's bones dislocating.
Xie Shu was just a mortal, but now he was caught between two forces. Even if his heart was not cut open, his internal organs, flesh and blood would be mixed into a paste by Xiao Chenyan and the other force.
"Xie Shu, wake up!"
There was a certain intimidation in Xiao Chenyan's voice. Xie Shu's eyes flickered and his brows furrowed, as if he felt pain.
But he still couldn't wake up, and the noises from his dislocated bones became louder and louder.
Xiao Chenyan had already seen that Xie Shu's knife-holding hand was twisting and deforming, as if the bones were trying to break free from the restraints of flesh and skin and head towards the heart.
There was a gleam of sharpness in his eyes.
Xiao Chenyan suddenly let go.
King Hui beside him let out a high-pitched scream.
The sound of the blade piercing through flesh was heard.
Xiao Chenyan's palm was pierced and blocked in front of Xie Shu's chest, blood gushing out. After he released the force, the force applied to Xie Shu to fight against him instantly lost its target. When the force was scattered, Xiao Chenyan formed a seal with his right hand and covered Xie Shu's heart with his hand.
A black thread emerged from Xie Shu's body and was grabbed by Xiao Chenyan.
In an unreal dream.
Xie Shu's hand fell on the mask of the Nuo-masked man. When he was about to take off the mask, the Nuo-masked man suddenly disappeared from his sight.
Xie Shu only felt a flash before his eyes.
When he returned to reality, he smelled a strong smell of blood, and saw that it was Xiao Chenyan's palm that was pierced through.
And the person holding the sharp blade was actually himself.
“Xiao…”
Xie Shu wanted to speak, but the severe pain that surged through his bones and flesh made it difficult for him to speak.
Xiao Chenyan didn't even look at him, but instead pushed him behind him.
Prince Hui had long been hiding behind Xiao Chenyan, trembling in fear, and Xie Shu was thrown onto Prince Hui.
"Ouch." Prince Hui let out a strange cry and was almost crushed again.
Xie Shu's bones were dislocated and he didn't have the strength to stand, but Prince Hui was also weak in the legs and hands.
Prince Hui used all his strength to hold Xie Shu up and looked at him in fear.
Five steps in front of Xiao Chenyan, there was a figure standing.
There was black gas swirling around the other person's body, with thin black lines entwined around him. Xiao Chenyan grasped one of the black lines.
It was with the help of that black thread that this person was pulled out.
Xiao Chenyan looked at the Nuo mask without hiding his murderous intent.
After being dragged out by him, the other party stood there motionless like a puppet without vitality.
Xiao Chenyan's hand was pierced by a dagger and bleeding profusely. The blood that was gushing out suddenly stopped and turned into a deep red blood sword at his fingertips.
The sword's tip was bloodthirsty, cold and sharp, and it charged straight at the man in the Nuo mask.
Xie Shu's pupils trembled violently. He wanted to stop Xiao Chenyan but he didn't have the strength to do so. He shouted with all his might, "Stop—"
——
The spear was like a moon shadow, piercing through the void and blocking Xiao Chenyan's sword.
The sword stopped and hovered above the mask of the man in the Nuo mask.
A figure suddenly appeared, holding a Moon Shadow Spear, and it turned out to be Night Traveler.
There was still a look of fear on his face, and his squinting eyes were open: "Luckily I made it in time."
Xiao Chenyan was just about to ask him why he was stopping him when he heard a snap and the mask on the Nuo masked man's face was shattered by the sword energy.
As the mask fell off, Xie Shu's hoarse voice sounded: "He is...A Zheng..."
Clank, the mask fell to the ground.
Xiao Chenyan's pupils contracted and he stared at the face opposite him.
The face was angular and handsome, with a small brown mole on the tip of the nose.
Countless memories flashed through my mind, all of them were from the past.
——Ayan, I was promoted to Major General!
——Xiao Chenyan! Why are you bullying my little sister again?
——Ayan! Wait for me to become a great general and expand the territory for you!
Xiao Chenyan's hands were trembling and his fingertips were clenched.
The blood sword dripped onto the ground as blood. He strode towards Yun Zheng. However, just as he took the first step, countless black threads surged away from Yun Zheng's body.
Ye You was startled and stood in front of Xiao Chenyan with caution.
The next moment, those black threads were entangled with Yun Zheng's body, his skin and flesh were turned over, and his blood was surging.
Ye You's pupils trembled and he thought of something.
Someone was faster than him. Xiao Chenyan had already rushed towards Yun Zheng, tightly grasping the black silk threads that were about to crush him.
However, Yun Zheng was like an unconscious puppet, allowing the black strings to strangle him. Facing Xiao Chenyan who rushed forward, he had no reaction and just watched indifferently.
The black thread twisted Xiao Chenyan's arm, and a piercing pain came.
What is really hurt is not the flesh, but the soul.
Xiao Chenyan could feel that this black line contained witchcraft power, which was aimed at strangling the soul.
Xiao Chenyan's eyes turned fierce, "Three corpses!"
Following his command, the red mole at the corner of his eye disappeared, and the Three Corpse Insects entered Yun Zheng's body and resisted the black line's strangulation for him.
Yun Zheng looked at Xiao Chenyan indifferently, unmoved and without any reaction, like an empty shell without a soul, silently breaking and collapsing.
He has no memories, no emotions, he is just a puppet that follows orders.
The moment before, he could coldly and ruthlessly chase down Xie Shu and take his heart.
At this moment, he also ignored his own death.
After the Three Corpse Worms entered his body, Yun Zheng's body trembled, and he suddenly closed his eyes and fell backwards. The black lines churning in his body were also bitten by the power of the Three Corpse Worms, and he temporarily regained calm.
Xiao Chenyan embraced the unconscious Yun Zheng, his heart in turmoil. He did not feel the joy and excitement of meeting an old friend, but only uncontrollable anger and murderous intent.
He tried his best to control his emotions and maintain a clear mind.
"What happened to Yun Zheng?"
Xiao Chenyan looked at Ye You: "Why are you here?"
The moment he looked into Xiao Chenyan's eyes, Ye You's scalp went numb and he subconsciously took a step back.
One of Xiao Chenyan's eyes was actually a shocking blood red, as if some power had taken the opportunity to awaken within him.
Night walk scalp tingling.
He came here on Qing Wu's orders.
Qing Wu predicted that something might happen in the palace, but she was restricted by the rules and could not enter the palace.
But now that Ye You is half ghost and half wizard, he can exploit loopholes in the rules and sneak into the palace.
At first, Ye You didn't know that the man in the Nuo mask was Yun Zheng.
It was Qing Wu who reminded him that no matter what Xiao Chenyan was going to do, he must be stopped!
Ye You was now thankful that he had arrived in time and stopped Xiao Chenyan.
If Xiao Chenyan had really hurt Yun Zheng just now, he would probably have completely collapsed mentally!
Ye You took a deep breath and said, "The dead ghost has captured Wu Zhen, and she asked me to stop you."
"It seems that the Wu Clan has done something to the counterfeit and Yun Zheng. As long as the counterfeit is injured, the attack will backfire on Yun Zheng."
"It was too late when the Dead Man and the Wasp found out, so..."
Ye You looked at Yun Zheng who was unconscious due to collapse, and cursed the witch clan for being so vicious in his heart!
This move is really vicious!
The witch probably did this when he realized that Asuna was about to be abandoned.
First, he asked Yun Zheng to seize Xie Shu's heart and hunt him down.
This was to trick Xiao Chenyan into killing Yun Zheng.
The fact that Yun Zheng was the Nuo masked man had been concealed till then, and Wu Zhen used the counterfeit to stir up hatred and induce Qing Wu to take ruthless action against him.
The injuries suffered by the counterfeit backfired on Yun Zheng.
Regardless of whether Xiao Chenyan will kill Yun Zheng or not, Yun Zheng will collapse in front of Xiao Chenyan due to the backlash.
This game forms a closed loop here.
The Wu Clan used Qing Wu and Xiao Chenyan's loved ones as bait and used love as a weapon to attack their loved ones.
This plan, this situation, are all to... break one's heart!
