When Gu Qingxi heard the city lord's unscrupulous ridicule, she was not angry, but asked in a deep voice: "What exactly do you want to do?"
The city lord did not answer her words, but stepped out of the attic, floated in the air, looked down at the entire city, and said quietly: "I took over this city from my father and managed it conscientiously. Over the past hundreds of years, the people have lived and worked in peace and contentment.
Wealth is all thanks to me. You have also seen the love and respect the city people have for me. Now, it is time for them to repay me."
Gu Qingxi listened to his words and began to move quietly with her hands.
He didn't notice Gu Qingxi's hidden movements behind him, or if he did, he ignored them. In his opinion, just building a foundation, how could he fight with him?
"Repay, how to repay?" Gu Qingxi continued to ask.
Ye Wuchen understood that Gu Qingxi was stalling for time.
"I finally understand what my way is." The city lord's voice was a little ethereal and a little crazy. The next moment, his voice spread far and wide, spreading throughout the city. All the city residents heard the voice of their city lord.
.
The citizens who were collecting things in front of the City Lord's Mansion subconsciously stopped what they were doing and looked up at the City Lord floating above the City Lord's Mansion.
"My way is the ruthless way! Being ruthless, without desires, without worries, cutting off all ties is ruthless. Only the ruthless way is the real way." The city lord's expression became more ferocious, and his voice became louder and louder.
loud.
At this moment, the people in front of the city lord's mansion were stunned when they heard this.
The city lord's wife and children were also stunned and looked at the city lord in confusion.
Only the eldest lady's expression changed, and an ominous feeling arose in her heart.
"Father, what are you talking about?" The city lord's youngest son looked at the city lord doubtfully and asked in confusion.
What answered him was the city lord's sword in the air.
The attack was fierce, full of murderous intent, and showed no mercy.
The wife of the city lord reacted the fastest. After she hugged her son, she quickly threw out a magic weapon. This was obviously a defensive magic weapon, but it was not enough to completely resist the attack of the city lord. Both mother and son were seriously injured, but their lives were saved.
Already.
"Father, what are you doing?" The younger son vomited blood and looked at the city lord floating in the air in disbelief. He didn't believe that it was his father who usually loved him. At this moment, his father looked at him like that.
So indifferent, so ruthless. There was even a trace of regret in his eyes.
What are you regretting? What are you regretting that you didn’t kill him with one sword just now?
The young master shivered and hugged his mother tightly. If his mother hadn't saved him just now, he would have lost his life.
"Father, what's wrong with you? Are you obsessed? Wake up." The eldest young master was frightened and frightened, and he shouted anxiously.
His answer was also a sword full of murderous intent.
The eldest lady next to him seemed to have expected this. She also took out a defensive magic weapon and threw it, then pushed her brother to roll on the spot. The eldest young master's life was saved by the eldest lady.
"Today, I will kill my relatives in the right way." The cold and distorted voice of the city lord rang in everyone's ears.
"Father?!" The eldest young master looked at his ferocious father in disbelief. What did he hear? Did he hear wrongly?
"Idiot, you heard that right, let's run away!" the eldest lady yelled angrily, pulling the eldest young master and running towards the city gate.
"And you, I have raised you for so many years, it is time for you to repay me. Helping me practice Taoism is what you should repay me." The city lord did not chase after him, but said calmly with a smile on his face.
After that, he faced the dense crowd and slashed with one sword.
Black sword energy roared in, carrying strong killing intent.
The smell of death enveloped the crowd below.
"Run! He's going to kill everyone." The eldest lady yelled.
This sword did not kill anyone. Because several talismans appeared out of thin air and formed a small formation, blocking the sword. The spiritual power and the black sword energy met in mid-air, resulting in a strong collision, and the sound
There was a violent noise. The fluctuations caused also injured some people, but fortunately no one died, but many people were also injured.
"Get out of here quickly, the city is going to sacrifice the lives of everyone in the city." Gu Qingxi's voice sounded.
"Listen to her and run away. She was the one who came to the rescue just now. My father has gone crazy. Run away!" The eldest lady made a quick decision and shouted loudly.
The crowd was in chaos, and there was a lot of crying and shouting.
Gu Qingxi also saw the two children who had led her the way before. They were crying and ran away in the arms of their father.
She will never allow this idiot city lord to take anyone's life!
Gu Qingxi flew up into the air with his sword and stood in front of the city lord.
"You want to be the first to die, that's fine. You can be my first step towards the ruthless path." The city lord's face was filled with black energy, and his smile became more and more twisted and weird.
Gu Qingxi didn't notice that Ye Wuchen's eyes had become hollow. His eyes were already a little absent-minded, and he murmured softly: "The way of ruthlessness... no desire and ruthlessness, cut off all ties... this is ruthlessness
Dao?"
Gradually, Ye Wuchen's eyes darkened, slowly turned black, and then turned slightly red. He felt as if he was drifting in nothingness, as if he was about to break through, but also as if he was lost.
"The ruthless way? Hahaha!" Gu Qingxi laughed out loud and mocked mercilessly, "Do you deserve to be called the ruthless way? You are the real fool's way, the stupid way! The real ruthless way is to have the common people in mind.
,To protect all living beings, the ruthless way is for, great love and ruthlessness!!!"
Gu Qingxi's last words struck a chord.
Ye Wuchen, who was originally a little distracted, was suddenly brought back to his senses. Hearing Gu Qingxi's last words, it was like thunder that struck his ears, deafening and enlightening!
He stared blankly at Gu Qingxi, who had a contemptuous smile on his face, and his sanity finally came back. Then he kept echoing Gu Qingxi's words in his heart. Great love is ruthless! Keep the common people in mind, protect all living beings...
Great love is ruthless, great love is ruthless...
Ye Wuchen's eyes became clearer and clearer.
The next moment, Gu Qingxi had already thrown out several talismans in his hand.
The city lord couldn't help laughing contemptuously. He wanted to stop him with just these few talismans.
However, the next moment, countless talismans flew out from the attic, and the black talismans seemed to be alive. They were flying briskly, flashing with white light, and finally surrounded the city lord in the middle.
The city lord didn't take it seriously, but sneered and slashed with his sword.
However, this sword attack did not destroy any of the talismans. It only aroused a white halo in front of the talismans, and then the power of the sword disappeared like a stone. These talismans actually formed a
Defense array!
The city lord's expression finally changed slightly.
The wife of the city lord, the eldest lady and others led the residents in the city and fled towards the city gate. However, when they arrived at the city gate, they found in despair that there was a transparent barrier blocking them, and no one could get out. No matter the eldest lady or the eldest lady, they were unable to get out.
No matter how the young master raised his sword to cut the barrier, it had no effect. Instead, both of them were shaken and flew backwards. They were also injured, but fortunately they were not serious.
"Mom, I don't want to die, wuwuwu..." the young master began to cry.
The young master's cries affected the emotions of many people. The despair continued to spread, and many people began to cry. Many people rushed forward and hit the barrier, and the results can be imagined.
"What should I do? What should I do now?" someone cried.
"Mrs. City Lord, please think of a solution quickly." Someone was crying, calling for Madam City Lord.
The wife of the city lord was confused and could only hold the child in her arms tighter. She didn't know why the people beside her suddenly became so scary. She wanted to kill all of them just to practice Taoism.
"Sister, I don't want to be a city lord anymore, I just want to live." The eldest young master cried until tears and runny nose ran down his face.
The eldest lady looked at her elder brother with disgust. Although she knew that this moment was inappropriate, she still couldn't stop complaining in her heart. Even if such a thing had not happened, you would not have the ability to be the city lord!
"Maybe we won't die. Because she is here." The eldest lady wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and looked up at the figure floating in the air in the distance. The figure was a little thin, but her figure was like that
Standing tall and firm, he stood in front of the city lord.
That figure was Gu Qingxi.
