After Zhang Ruochen had a duel with Di Yi, he immediately rushed back to Yunwu County.
He pushed his true energy to the extreme, his feet lifted off the ground, as if he were stepping on the tips of grass, and his speed reached the extreme.
After running for a day and a night, spanning tens of thousands of miles, he finally stopped for a moment until the energy in his body was almost exhausted.
"We should have entered the territory of Yunwu County. I hope I can still make it in time."
Although he was very anxious, he had to stop and take a rest.
Zhang Ruochen walked into an abandoned temple, sat cross-legged under a stone statue wrapped in cobwebs, drank a blood pill, ran his skills, absorbed the power of the holy dragon in the dragon ball, and began to restore the consumed energy and physical strength.
"Woo!"
The howling cold wind poured in from the rotten wooden door, making a sound like a ghost crying, adding a bit of chill.
In the middle of the night, a heavy footsteps sounded outside the ruined temple.
Zhang Ruochen was awakened by the footsteps. Most of the energy in his body had been restored. He summoned Shen Yuan's ancient sword and looked warily in the direction of the wooden door of the deserted temple.
"Squeak!"
A fat figure knocked open the wooden door, stepped on the air, stumbled down the stone stairs, and landed in the courtyard of the deserted temple.
"It hurts so much, it hurts me to death!"
The fat figure kept wailing, and it seemed that he had fallen hard.
Zhang Ruochen looked carefully and found that the fat figure that fell in was actually a rabbit with long red hair all over its body. It was extremely large and stood up to two meters high.
Its ears stand on top of its head, like two huge cattail fans.
Its head was round, like a fluffy fur ball, with a pair of big round eyes. It kept turning its eyes, looking around in the deserted temple, and finally saw the figure sitting cross-legged under the stone statue.
Zhang Ruochen.
With a strange cry, it flew forward.
"Guo Guo, why are you here?" Zhang Ruochen asked with some confusion.
Guo Guo sat down next to Zhang Ruochen, showing two snow-white rabbit teeth, and said in human words: "It's a long story! I swallowed a piece of meat in the water, and my whole body was on fire, so I tried my best
I ran away, trying to extinguish the flame, but the flame would not go out. I was so angry! Then I continued to run. Later, I saw you running too, so I ran after you, and followed.
I came here. I ran and I caught up with you."
After absorbing the dragon's blood, Guoguo opened his spiritual aperture, but his intelligence was still limited. He could not help but speak very quickly and couldn't enunciate clearly.
It talked for a long time, gesticulating with its paws, and making various exaggerated expressions. However, Zhang Ruochen was confused and had no idea what it was talking about.
However, Zhang Ruochen understood one thing. The whole thing happened because it swallowed a piece of meat.
What meat?
Zhang Ruochen's heart moved. Could it be...
He immediately stretched out a hand, grabbed one of Guo Guo's paws, and injected a ray of Qingxu Qi into its palm.
"boom!"
A powerful demonic energy corroded Zhang Ruochen's true energy, and surged out of Guo Guo's body, spreading towards Zhang Ruochen's arm.
That ball of demonic energy was bone-chilling and made Zhang Ruochen's arms numb.
Zhang Ruochen immediately activated his true energy to dissolve the demonic energy. He stared at Guoguo in surprise with a solemn expression.
Guoguo looked at Zhang Ruochen and had a bad feeling. He widened his eyes and said nervously: "Master Chen, I...I won't eat...things that I shouldn't eat..."
Zhang Ruochen stared at it deeply and nodded: "It did eat something unclean."
Guo Guo was so frightened that his mouth twisted and his tongue fell out of his mouth. The whole rabbit was stunned.
After a while, it screamed, and immediately stretched out a pair of paws and dug hard into its mouth, trying to take out the unclean thing.
It howled loudly and kept rolling on the ground, knocking the stone benches and incense tables around it into pieces.
Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said: "You don't have to look so miserable. If I guessed correctly, what you swallowed should be Di Yi's demonic heart."
Guoguo immediately somersaulted up, put his fat face in front of Zhang Ruochen, and said: "Master Chen, how could Di Yi throw the devil's heart into the water when he is so awesome? What is the devil's heart? What do you think?
Ah! You said so!"
Zhang Ruochen said unhurriedly: "The devil's heart is Di Yi's heart. It was dug out by my sword, fell into the Tongming River, and was swallowed by you. Although the devil's heart grows on the human body, it is innate.
The spiritual object contains the most yin and evil power. I just used my martial soul to explore it, and found that the demon heart is in your body, and it has actually formed a red flame magic ball, which is integrated with the flesh and blood of your body.
Something strange."
"Oh! It's over! I'm a vegetarian rabbit. I accidentally ate the magic heart. I'm afraid I will be killed by that thing. Master Chen, you must help me take out the magic ball. Let's swallow the elephant rabbit
The family has been passed down from generation to generation, and it cannot be cut off from me." Guo Guo stared at Zhang Ruochen with a pair of round eyes and said pitifully.
Zhang Ruochen said: "A single inheritance from generation to generation...how did your father give birth to you?"
"Don't worry about those details." Guo Guo said.
Zhang Ruochen said: "You are not a vegetarian. Didn't you still eat the spiritual meat I gave you before?"
"Master Chen, when Xiao Chang taught me to speak, he told me that when listening to others, you must learn to focus on the key points. Why can't you grasp the key points? It doesn't matter whether it is passed down from generation to generation, whether you are a vegetarian or not, the most important thing now is
, just to help me take out the magic ball in my body." Guoguo said.
Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said: "It's true that just like the teacher, there are the same kind of students. Following Chang Qiqi, I have already learned to talk nonsense before I even learn human language. Don't worry! That magic ball
For you, there should be no harm, but rather great benefits. In the future, you might even be able to cultivate an inner elixir."
Hearing Zhang Ruochen's words, Guoguo suddenly felt calm. He took a long breath and sat down again.
"Master Chen, where are you going? Why are you running in such a hurry? I almost didn't catch up." Guo Guo couldn't help but ask as soon as he sat down.
Zhang Ruochen's eyes were focused, and after a while, he said: "Go home."
Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen's ears twitched slightly and said: "A large number of people are coming in this direction, about one hundred and thirty miles away from us..."
Zhang Ruochen immediately closed his eyes and released his martial spirit.
The martial soul left the body and flew one hundred and thirty miles away.
"You can hear movement a hundred and thirty miles away? Is it true?"
Guo Guo glanced at Zhang Ruochen with some doubts and disbelief, so he lay down on the ground, put his ears to the ground, and listened carefully.
"No, it's fourth brother."
Zhang Ruochen suddenly opened his eyes, waved his arm, and a sword intent spread out, triggering Shen Yuan's ancient sword.
"call out!"
Shen Yuan's ancient sword made a sound, turned into a stream of light, flew out from the deserted temple, dragged its long tail, and disappeared into the deep night sky.
At the same time, Zhang Ruochen took off and broke through the top of the deserted temple with a bang.
The true energy in the body was released and turned into a dragon shadow more than 20 meters long. It wrapped around Zhang Ruochen's body, exploded with sound, and flew out.
"Master Chen, why are you running away again? Where are you going? Don't leave me...Afraid of the dark..."
Guoguo crashed through the wall of the deserted temple, rolled and climbed down the hillside, and rushed out chasing the dragon shadow in the sky. Its speed was surprisingly fast.
Hundreds of miles away.
The fourth prince, Zhang Shaochu, was fleeing with a group of sergeants. Behind them, they were chasing dozens of evil warriors from the black market wearing black clothes.
Zhang Shaochu wore armor and fought bloody battles, but there were still fewer and fewer soldiers around him, and they all fell into a pool of blood. In the end, less than ten people were still with him.
Five days ago, Zhang Tiangui returned to Yunwu County, slaughtered all members of the royal family, killed his father and brother, and ascended to the throne of the County King.
At that time, Zhang Shaochu was leading an army to attack Sifang County. Hearing this incident, he was heartbroken and immediately returned to the court with his troops, hoping to attack Zhang Tiangui and avenge his father, brother and mother.
Unfortunately, Zhang Tiangui had many masters around him and was supported by black market forces. Zhang Shaochu was defeated before he could break into the city gate and was chased by black market masters.
Zhang Shaochu was exhausted all the way to escape. Not only the pain on his body, but also the pain in his heart made him cry many times.
A blood-stained sergeant with disheveled hair said sadly: "Your Highness, Fourth Prince, it seems we can't escape today!"
Zhang Shaochu was also seriously injured. He supported his body with his sword and said, "Don't be afraid. Mr. Hua has rushed back to Wu City Academy to report the news. As long as the ninth brother can come back, we can regroup, fight back to the royal city, and kill Zhang Tiangui."
That bastard."
"I'm afraid you won't have that chance!"
Xue Jingtian walked out from the group of black market warriors, stared at Zhang Shaochu, and said with a smile: "Fourth Prince, the other princes have been executed, so why are you still struggling? You don't hope that Zhang Ruochen can come back to save you.
You, right? To tell you the truth, Zhang Ruochen has died in Tongming River, and he can't come back! Haha!"
Zhang Shaochu gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Xue Jingtian, my father still trusts you so much and makes you a national advisor. I didn't expect you to be a beast with a human face and a beast's heart."
Xue Jingtian smiled happily, looked at Zhang Shaochu with pity, used sound waves to transmit the sound into Zhang Shaochu's ears, and said with a smile: "You guessed it right! I am a beast with a human face and a beast heart. Not only did I kill your father, but I also slept with him
The woman who married your father."
"You...what did you say?" Zhang Shaochu asked in shock.
Xue Jingtian was very proud and said with a smile: "Zhang Tiangui is my son. Now, do you understand? From now on, Yunwu County belongs to our Xue family and has nothing to do with your Zhang family! Haha!"
"Sure enough...that's it...that's it..." Zhang Shaochu burst into tears and said, "I'm just saying, no matter how cruel Zhang Tiangui is, he will never be cruel to his biological father and brothers. So that's it..."
The reason why Xue Jingtian told the truth just now was because he knew that Zhang Shaochu would definitely die today, so he told him the secret that he had suppressed in his heart.
Keeping secrets is a very painful thing, and Xue Jingtian has never dared to tell anyone.
But it doesn't matter if you tell a dead person, right?
It was a very comfortable feeling to tell the secrets in his heart, which gave Xue Jingtian a sense of beauty. Finally, someone could share his achievements with him.
"Now that you know the secret, you can go and die!"
Xue Jingtian used his hand as a knife and turned it into an arc, slashing towards Zhang Shaochu's neck.
