Unfortunately, in this case, saying no is of no use. Instead, it only makes the other party more excited.
Wei Pingyang finally came to his senses and asked in a trembling voice: "Zu An, are you not dead yet?"
Zu An sneered twice: "How can I be willing to die if you haven't died yet."
"This is impossible!" Wei Pingyang trembled all over, fearful and surprised, "It's impossible for you to survive if your heart is pierced by Lu Xiao's flying sword."
Not to mention him, even if the King of Qi or even the Emperor let go of his defenses and allowed Lu Xiao to hit a vital point with his sword, he might not have survived.
Zu An sighed: "You have a life-saving magic weapon, but I don't?"
His thoughts returned to the mountain behind the academy before entering the secret realm. Jiang Luofu took him to find Xie Daoyun, who gave him a glimmer of life charm.
It can offset 20% of the damage when suffering a fatal attack. As for whether you can save your life after offset the 20% of the damage, it depends on your luck, so it is called a ray of life charm.
Fortunately, Zu An's body was extremely strong after being tempered by the "Hongmeng Yuanshi Jing". After reducing the damage, the sword did not completely destroy his heart.
Even so, if someone jumped into the pool and came to him at that time, he would definitely die.
Fortunately, Lu Xiao was eager to pursue the prince and princess, so he took everyone away, giving him a chance to breathe.
Other practitioners after the seventh level also have good recovery abilities, but such a serious injury will never be able to recover for more than half a year.
The recovery ability of "Hongmeng Yuanshi Jing" is much stronger than that of ordinary practitioners, so it can repair his injuries to 77% in a short period of time, at least he has the strength to fight again.
Wei Pingyang never expected that such a thing would happen, so he was caught off guard by the opponent's "Taotie Devouring Heaven Technique".
Hearing Zu An's words, Wei Pingyang felt despair in his heart. Seeing his withered arms, he was sure that he could no longer break away from him, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.
"You brat, I won't give you any mercy even if I die!" After saying that, he used all the strength he had accumulated to break his heart and commit suicide.
After all, he is a master, and he is also a great person in the world, so he naturally knows some special skills. In addition, due to the impact of Zu An's serious injury, the control of the Taotie Swallowing Heaven Technique is not as good as usual, so he successfully cut off his heart.
Zu An let him go, with some admiration in his eyes: "He is a decisive person."
At the beginning, Taoist Mosquito tried to escape because he always wanted to survive, but in the end, not only did he not escape, but his cultivation became an advantage for him.
Zu'an has bluebirds that can live freely in the water, so he is not in a hurry to get out of the water, but first feels the situation inside his body.
Now that his body is full of vitality, although the chest injury is still there, it is already recovering on its own. Overall, his combat power has returned to its peak state.
He looked inside and found that eight of the ninth-grade magic circles had been lit up, leaving only the last magic circle.
Zu An secretly cried out that it was a pity. He had just absorbed half of Wei Pingyang's cultivation level. If he had absorbed all of it, he would have broken through to the Grandmaster realm by now.
"What are you thinking about?" Mi Li snorted, "It's not that easy to break through from ninth grade to grandmaster. It's not just about accumulating vitality."
Zu An smiled coquettishly: "I just said that casually, by the way, why do I feel that the effect of sucking other people is much worse than sucking old man Mi's vitality?"
When Mi Li unlocked the seal before, he only absorbed one-third of the old man Mi's cultivation and directly crossed a great realm. In comparison, the improvement brought by Wei Pingyang's cultivation was much smaller.
"Of course," Mi Li explained, "Old Man Mi thought he could seize you, so he was willing to instill all his cultivation into your body. Moreover, he also practiced the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra, and the energy in his body is from the same origin as yours.
It is naturally much better than using the "Taotie Devouring Heaven Technique" to absorb other people's cultivation."
"That's it." Zu An nodded and rushed out of the water.
A waterspout surged out along with him. Zu An jumped into the air, feeling the vitality in his body surge. His arms shook, and a row of huge water splashes exploded from the pool behind him.
After mixing the breath in his body, Zu An looked at his palms and said with some joy: "Now let me fight the grandmaster again, I feel like I can win."
"Minzhi's confidence," Mi Li rolled her eyes, "Now you are just capable of fighting, so you won't be as embarrassed as before. It's not a big problem against new masters, but it's really hard to fight against those veteran masters.
Although you have a chance to win, you are more likely to lose."
"Haha, that's enough." Zu An laughed.
Mi Li didn't refute. This guy was always good at defeating the strong with the weak. Every time he was at an absolute disadvantage, he could find a glimmer of hope. His actual combat ability was indeed extraordinary.
Seeing his eyes looking towards the direction where Bi Linglong and others were leaving, she couldn't help but said: "Are you still going?"
Zu An nodded: "We have already reached this point, how can we give up."
Mi Li's tone was a little impatient: "You have done enough for that woman, and you almost lost your life. Isn't it enough? Although your cultivation has improved now, that Lu Xiao is at the middle stage of a master, and you can't beat her.
of."
At low-level realms, it is not impossible for some geniuses to leapfrog higher levels and defeat powerful enemies, but the further they go, the greater the gap between each small realm, let alone the gap between large realms. It is almost impossible to challenge them by leapfrogging higher levels.
It's impossible.
Only a monster like Zu An, who possesses various magical powers, can barely challenge it, but there is a limit after all. It is obvious that Lu Xiao, who is in the middle stage of Grand Master, has exceeded this limit.
Zu An looked at Mi Li: "Honestly, I have a 10% chance of winning in a fight with Lu Xiao."
Mi Li replied: "Twenty-eight, at most three-seven, no more."
A smile appeared on Zu An's face: "That's enough. In a life-and-death fight, he will definitely die."
Mi Li wanted to say something, but when she thought about how he dared to fight with her when he was only in the fifth and sixth grades, she felt a little admiration in her heart: "You are indeed the person I like."
Thinking of this, she stopped trying to persuade her and instead said, "Well, if you want to go, go ahead. You have a strong heart that is not afraid of hardships. Although it may easily lead to your death, once you truly grow up, your future will be limitless."
Zu An smiled and said, "It's rare for you to praise me once."
Mi Li rolled her eyes: "If you keep talking too much, your princess may have been killed."
Zu An did not dare to delay and hurriedly chased into the mountains.
With his current level of cultivation, he can fly in the air for a longer period of time, so he doesn't have to use Gale Teleport every time.
It didn't take long for him to come to a fork in the road, and he immediately realized that this was Bi Linglong's plan to divide his forces.
When he was having a headache as to which direction he should pursue, waves of vitality suddenly erupted in the distant mountains and forests.
"Lu Xiao?" The opponent had just shot his sword through his heart, and he was all too familiar with this kind of energy fluctuation.
He hurried in that direction, and when he was almost close, he got down from the air, put on the sachet given by Concubine Bai again, and at the same time used the mirror to hide his own scent.
Although he is not afraid of strong enemies, it would be a sign of stubbornness to rush in head-on. The world of cultivation is extremely cruel, and most people like this will not live long.
Defeating the strong with the weak naturally requires strategy. So he approached quietly, intending to give the opponent a hard blow when he was not prepared, and strive to determine the outcome in the shortest time to avoid a protracted battle. In that case, Lu Xiao in the middle stage of Grandmaster would be more powerful.
Advantage.
Moreover, Pu Duandiao and Jiao Siguan were in very bad condition dozens of feet away. They were covered in wounds and had to be beaten to the ground with their swords to barely stand up straight. The other East Palace guards basically fell to the ground.
Either the body is dead, or there is only incoming breath but no outgoing breath.
They stared intently at a man floating in mid-air. Although the man had a broken hand, he had an indescribable aura and looked at everyone like a god looking at ants on the ground.
"You think you are smart, but unfortunately with this fat pig like Zhao Ruizhi, your footprints are always deeper than others. As long as I pursue this, I will find you easily." Lu Xiao said with a smile, his tone was quite relaxed and freehand, and it was obvious that he saw
The mission of many years was about to be completed, and he was in an especially good mood at this time.
"You are so bold, you dare to be disrespectful to the prince." Pu Duandiao shouted angrily.
"After all this time, who still treats him as a prince?" Lu Xiao flicked the dust off his clothes. He had just been injured by Bi Linglong's sword. After such a long time, he had already changed into a new set of clothes. "
I have to say that you have strong willpower and can still persist until now, but now everything is over."
As soon as he finished speaking, an invisible energy spurted out and hit the two of them directly.
Like kites with broken strings, Pu Duandiao and Jiao Siguang crashed into a big tree nearby. Then they vomited blood and fell to the ground without making any sound. They didn't know whether they were alive or dead.
Zu An happened to see this scene when he came, and his eyes suddenly turned cold, but he did not act impulsively and continued to lurk, quietly waiting for the best opportunity to take action.
Mi Li nodded secretly after seeing this. This guy has grown up. He was obviously angry, but he didn't act impulsively.
At this time, Lu Xiao fell from the sky and looked at the prince who was not far away.
"Why should I be afraid?" The prince looked at him with a strange look.
Zu An, who was hiding in the dark, was shocked. Originally, all his attention was on Lu Xiao, looking for an opportunity to kill him with one strike, but at this time, he couldn't help but glance at the prince.
It's obviously still the same face, but I don't know if it's because it no longer has the usual silly smile on it, and it looks a lot strange.
Lu Xiao also frowned, obviously feeling something strange as well: "Because you are going to die...Hey, I actually reasoned with a fool."
Seeing his annoyed look, the prince said: "You think you are very smart?"
"Of course I'm smarter than you." Lu Xiao replied subconsciously, then frowned and said, "It's time now, don't act like a prince here. Do you people really think you have the aura of a king?"
The prince sighed: "Zhao Jing's subordinates are becoming increasingly useless."
Zu An, who was hiding in the dark, suddenly felt a chill running down his spine. He couldn't explain why, but all the hairs on his body stood up.
Mi Li's voice also sounded in his mind: "Be careful, there is something wrong with this prince."
Her tone was extremely solemn, and it was obvious that she had noticed something.
"You bastard, you dare to call King Qi by his first name." Lu Xiao was halfway through speaking, when he suddenly frowned and stared at the other person, "Aren't you a fool?"
The prince smiled: "Who said I am a fool?"
Hearing his words and seeing the way he spoke now, Zu An felt thousands of grass and mud horses galloping past. He thought he was surrounded by old Yinbi, but he didn't expect that there was a little Yinbi who was hiding the deepest.
!
Wait, if he wasn't stupid, wouldn't all the things between him and Bi Linglong be...
Lu Xiao was also shocked at this time: "I didn't expect that you would have deceived the entire capital for so many years."
The prince did not answer, but looked at him with indifferent eyes.
Lu Xiao didn't like this look very much. In theory, he should be looking at others like ants, rather than being looked at by others: "You damn fat man has hidden your secrets quite well. Even the King of Qi was
You've cheated, but it doesn't mean anything. You still have a dead end now."
"Are you sure it's me who will die?" There was a sarcastic smile on the prince's fat face. Normally, it would only make people feel funny, but at this time, it made people feel an inexplicable sense of fear.
Lu Xiao didn't know why he felt angry in his heart. He quickly eliminated this emotion and then looked at the other party: "It seems that the prince is hiding something secretly, but it still makes no sense. You are here at your age, even if you cultivated from your mother's womb,
, what level of cultivation can you achieve now? Do you think everyone is a monster like Zu An!"
Zu An cursed in his heart, let's just chat for this silly chat, why would you attract hatred by pulling me out?
At this moment, every cell in his body was ringing with alarm, and he even wanted to remind Lu Xiao. Unfortunately, he did not dare to make any move at this time and could only try his best to hide his aura.
"Zu An?" the prince muttered, "that guy is indeed a bit of a monster."
Lu Xiao frowned. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it.
However, he quickly relaxed. He was a master in the middle stage of Grand Master and ranked high in the capital with so many masters, but he was frightened by a stupid fat man.
He snorted: "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. After I kill you, I have to catch the Crown Princess and the others."
As he spoke, he kicked his toes, and a knife that the East Palace guards just dropped on the ground shot out like a cannonball. This force was enough to shatter the opponent's meridians, and then nailed him to the tree. The next step was
It would attract the ferocious beasts in the mountains and devour him until nothing was left. Even if the emperor sent people to check afterward, he would not be able to find any clues.
The prince in the distance didn't dodge or even make the slightest move. In Lu Xiao's eyes, he just thought that the other person had been frightened.
However, the smile on his face suddenly froze, because the knife suddenly stopped in front of the prince, and then floated three feet in front of the prince.
Lu Xiao subconsciously took a step back: "What kind of cultivation level do you have?"
He didn't even feel how the other party made his move, and he neutralized his own vicious move.
There was a strange expression on the prince's fat face: "No one has dared to take action against me for many years. This feeling is really nostalgic."
Lu Xiao's expression changed. Alarm bells were ringing all over his body. As a mid-level master, he could predict danger in advance.
At that moment, he didn't hesitate at all and soared directly into the sky. He just wanted to fly as fast as possible and leave this place as soon as possible.
However, as soon as he stood up, he felt a weight on his body, and then he lost his center of gravity and fell heavily to the ground.
He looked down inexplicably and found that his two feet had been cut off at the knee level. At this time, the severe pain in his legs began to hit him. He covered his legs and howled in pain, rolling in the dust. How could he still be alive?
The majesty of chasing down everyone.
A chill rose up Zu An's back. He stared at the ordinary guard's sword in front of the prince. It still stayed three feet in front of him, as if it had not moved, but a drop of blood slowly dripped from the tip of the sword.
The blood beads showed that it was the knife that had just cut off Lu Xiao's legs.
"Why so fast?" Zu An was shocked. He didn't even see clearly how the knife was struck. If the knife just hit him, he probably wouldn't be able to dodge it.
"Who are you?" Lu Xiao looked at the prince in the distance with fear. The fat man who was so ridiculous in his eyes now became so terrifying.
"What do you think?" The prince grinned at him.
Lu Xiao gritted his teeth and directly formed the sword technique with his hand. The iron sword he had refined in his early years suddenly appeared next to him.
After all, he is a mid-level master. Although his legs have been cut off, he can drive the flying sword without using his hands.
The iron sword made bursts of dragon roars, and then he reached out and pointed in the direction of the prince: "Quick!"
The flying sword instantly turned into a meteor, even twice as fast as the flying sword that defended Pingyang just now!
This is the strongest blow Lu Xiao has ever delivered. It is his lifelong pride and hard work. Whether he can turn defeat into victory depends on this.
This time the prince finally moved, and he slowly raised his hand. In the eyes of Lu Xiao and Zu An, his speed was obviously very slow, but he came first, and his two fat fingers clamped the lightning-fast hand.
Flying sword.
"What?!!!"
Zu An and Lu Xiao's eyes almost popped out of their heads. This scene was beyond everyone's understanding.
Lu Xiao trembled all over. He already felt the threat of death, and he tried hard to hold the sword skills, trying to regain control of the flying sword.
If an ordinary person dared to clamp his flying sword like this, even if he was a grandmaster, he would twist the opponent's two fingers into pieces by twisting the flying sword.
Feeling his control, the flying sword buzzed and trembled violently, trying to break free from the prince's fingers.
The prince glanced at it, then pinched it with two fingers, and the flying sword broke inch by inch, and then the breeze blew and turned into flying ash!
"Poof!" Lu Xiao spurted out a mouthful of blood. His whole body instantly became haggard and his hair turned white.
The opponent not only shattered his flying sword just now, but also pursued the victory and directly shattered his soul!
This is a method only available to those above the Grand Master. No, not even the Grand Master can do it that easily.
He recalled the aura on the other person's body, and suddenly had a glimmer of understanding. He looked at the fat man in fear, and shouted with a difficult throat: "Your Majesty, it turns out you are the Emperor..."

Today the two chapters are combined.
By the way, I have been seeing some book friends scolding me in the comment area a few days ago. They think the emperor is mentally retarded. He thinks that apart from being the best in the world, he is being plotted against everything. King Qi has arranged so many things and he is so unaware of it.
, I feel that these plots in the secret realm are stupid and unreasonable; at the same time, I feel that it is illogical to force a mentally retarded son to take the throne in such a spiritual world, etc. etc. plot bugs...
I was depressed and impatient. I wanted to explain but couldn't spoil it in advance. Now everyone finally understands what's going on.
Careful readers should have already noticed that some of the character relationships in this book are based on the Western Jin Dynasty, especially the struggle between the emperor, the prince, and the king of Qi. Historically, it is logical for the emperor to let his stupid son succeed to the throne.
The son's rise to power lacks rationality. Some readers have pointed it out and think it is a plot bug. Unfortunately, they didn't expect me to be on the fifth floor, haha.
Originally, I was thinking of waiting until the truth came out to come out and say something that no one expected. However, two book friends seemed to have guessed the truth in the comment area two days ago. I can only say that readers are really awesome now.
force
This chapter has been completed!
