Chapter 586 Complete Crusade (Third Update)
The man in the black robe sensed a threat almost instinctively.
Logically speaking, the boy's strength was far below his own, so he shouldn't have this feeling.
The boy attacked him, his moves no different from before. It was unclear who taught him the marksmanship; it was unusually simple, just a few moves, but each one was a killing move!
The boy gripped the red-tasseled spear with both hands and slashed down fiercely at him with the spearhead!
He swung his knife to parry.
To his surprise, the boy used the same move as before, but the power seemed to have increased several times over, and his hands and arms went numb!
The boy gave him no chance to recover, and the second spear was already thrusting at him. This time, he still chose to defend with his sword. The heavy red-tasseled spear pressed down on his raised sword. The boy's strength was so great that it pressed him into the ground several inches deep!
What was that boy doing just now?
How did your strength increase so much?
When the boy's third spear came, he finally stopped defending and attacked head-on. However, he was forced back more than ten steps by the boy's red-tasseled spear!
The boy's hair hasn't thinned at all!
A strong sense of horror flashed in the black-robed man's eyes.
Admittedly, he did not use his full strength when he fought the boy, because he could not use that much. Just like a Ferghana horse can travel a maximum of four hundred li a day, but if it is made to run four hundred li, it will die.
The man in black robes initially used only 50% of his strength, which he felt was more than enough.
Now, however, we have no choice but to use 60%.
Since arriving in Zhao Kingdom, this is the first person to force him to use 60% of his power.
The two exchanged blows for several more rounds, with the young man's moves becoming increasingly ruthless, without any feints, all of them were killing blows!
The man in the black robe was injured, both internally and externally, and he was enduring pain from all parts of his body.
On the other hand, although the boy was also injured, he seemed not to feel any pain at all. Ignoring the tearing of his wounds and the blood, he attacked him recklessly!
Losing the sense of pain during a fight is actually a very dangerous thing. Where there is pain, it means that the area can no longer bear force, and once this judgment is lost, the consequences are extremely terrible.
Gu Jiao unleashed another powerful spear strike, carrying the might of mountains and rivers, and exuding overwhelming killing intent.
Seeing that things were going badly, the black-robed expert no longer intended to play it safe with the boy. He directly increased his power by 80%, which was enough to crush the boy's level!
Of course, this is also the limit of his safe combat. Going any higher would mean killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of his own, or even perishing together with the enemy.
It would be worth getting injured if I could kill this boy.
Thinking this, the black-robed expert launched his most ferocious attack at the boy.
He thought he could finally finish off the boy in front of him, but to his surprise, the boy's aura surged again!
how so?
The black-robed expert was completely dumbfounded!
He gritted his teeth.
Fine, then let's all perish together!
The black-robed master pushed his power to its limit! The meridians in his body could not withstand such terrifying power and began to burst inch by inch, and he also began to bleed from his seven orifices!
He channeled all his inner strength into the sword in his right hand and slashed fiercely at Gu Jiao!
With a soft thud, a red-tasseled spear pierced mercilessly through his chest!
He stared in disbelief at the boy before him, unable to comprehend how he had done it.
The boy walked towards him indifferently, gripped the red-tasseled spear with one hand, and pushed it hard, piercing right through his body!
The black-robed expert fell straight to the ground, dying without understanding how he had died at the hands of such a young boy.
He gazed at the dark, boundless sky.
God of Slaughter.
He saw the god of death.
Everything was over. The official road outside Phoenix Pavilion was completely silent, and the air was thick with the stench of blood.
Gu Jiao gripped the red-tasseled spear, her dark pupils fixed on the road ahead, her gaze unfocused.
Her murderous aura did not diminish even after the black-robed expert fell.
She still wanted to kill.
If you can't kill others, then kill yourself.
"Chirp!"
Xiao Jiu flapped its wings and flew over, circling around Gu Jiao's head for a while.
"Chirp chirp!"
Xiao Jiu yelled at Gu Jiao.
"Gurgle!"
"grumble!"
"Cluck cluck!"
Gu Jiao pointed the red-tasseled spear at Xiao Jiu.
Little Nine flapped its wings and its feathers bristled: "Chirp!"
Little Nine was terrified, but it did not run away.
It bravely flew to the top of Gu Jiao's head and pecked at her hair ribbon with its beak.
"Chirp!"
"Chirp!"
"Chirp!"
A struggle flickered in Gu Jiao's eyes. She threw the red-tasseled spear to the ground, then pulled out the thin rope tied around her waist and tightly bound her hands!
She mounted her horse, suppressing the immense killing intent within her with sheer willpower.
Little Nine flew behind the horse and pecked at its rump with its beak!
The horse, in pain, galloped off at full speed.
Blood trickled from the corner of Gu Jiao's eye; she could no longer see the road.
Little Nine led the way, holding the horse's reins in its mouth.
A man, an eagle, and a horse gallop wildly through the night.
Xiao Jiu, go faster, I can't control myself anymore.
As if sensing Gu Jiao's murderous aura, Xiao Jiu chirped and quickly led the horse toward the city gate.
The city authorities had already received orders and were just waiting for her to retrieve the antidote.
On the city wall, a guard suddenly pointed in the direction of Cangbei Mountain and shouted, "My lord! Look! Someone is coming!"
How many people?
"It looks like that boy who left the city earlier!"
"Quickly! Open the city gates!"
The city gates opened wide, and the guards came forward to greet them.
Gu Jiao's mask had long since fallen off, and she was covered in blood, including her face. Her hands were even bound. If people hadn't seen her leave the city before, they would hardly have recognized her.
What's even more deadly is that everyone could feel the murderous intent in her eyes.
She's going to kill someone!
"Back off!" the head guard shouted.
Everyone drew their swords and retreated.
Gu Jiao untied the bundle from her back and tossed it to the head guard with her bound hands.
"Antidote."
Her bloodshot eyes stared at the head guard, and with the last vestige of her sanity, she said, "Close the city gates... don't open them!"
The head guard's heart skipped a beat!
“My lord…” His subordinate stared at him blankly.
The head guard stared intently at Gu Jiao, who was radiating murderous intent, and raised his hand with a complex expression: "Everyone, enter the city and close the gates!"
"grown ups!"
"Do as I say!"
The group gritted their teeth, entered the city, pulled the winch, and slammed the city gate shut.
Little Nine flapped its wings and chirped loudly at Gu Jiao, "Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!"
Gu Jiao grabbed it and threw it through the crack in the city gate.
"grown ups!"
Just as the city gate was about to close completely, a tall, slender white figure burst out through the crack in the gate.
Before anyone could grab it, a loud bang was heard, and the city gate, which required twenty people to operate simultaneously, slammed shut!
A roar came from inside the city gate tower: "Are you all crazy? Why didn't you stop him! That's Lord Xiao from the Hanlin Academy!"
The rope on Gu Jiao's wrist was specially made for her to deal with sudden situations where she lost control. There were small needles on the rope, and if she struggled until the needles broke, the neurotoxins inside would pierce her body.
The more the struggle, the more neurotoxin is injected.
The total amount was enough to kill her.
She lay on the horse's back, letting the neurotoxins paralyze her body.
She knew she couldn't use any more, but her murderous intent didn't diminish.
"Jiaojiao".
Suddenly, a gentle voice rang in her ears.
A pair of strong arms reached out and lifted her off the horse without hesitation.
The ropes binding her hands were untied.
She was pulled into a strong, warm embrace.
"You surnamed Gu! What kind of monster is your daughter! Take her away right now!"
"Mother."
"Mom, I'll be good, please don't send me away. I can go without eating, I won't wet my pants, and I won't cry."
"I don't care if you cry or not! Get away from me! I don't want you anymore!"
"Mother."
"Get away from me!"
"Mommy, Mommy, Mommy..."
Three-year-old Gu Jiao, her hands covered in blood, clutched a decapitated rag doll. Barefoot, she stood in the dark stairwell, the biting wind blowing, and knocked repeatedly on the cold, closed door: "Mommy, Mommy..."
"I'm not a monster," Gu Jiao said, feeling wronged, in a daze.
Xiao Heng sat on the ground, holding her blood-stained body tightly. There was a wound on his neck from where she had bitten him, and the blood stained his clothes.
He pressed his cool cheek against her burning forehead and said with heartache, "Of course not, Jiaojiao. Jiaojiao is the best Jiaojiao in the world, and she is Aheng's wife. Aheng is not afraid of Jiaojiao."
In a daze, Gu Jiao pinched a bit of his sleeve with two slender fingers and mumbled, "Yes, I'm just that good."
It's late at night, please vote!
