Chapter 244: Late Duel
"You're finally here."
Slowly raising his head, the Hidden Blade in Tang Lu's hand slammed into the ground.
Under his gaze, Qianji jumped down from the high wall surrounding the headquarters of the Zero Clan, he could be sure that except for Tang Lu, no one else in this place noticed his arrival, obviously, the Demon Lord did not suppress their strength when he created the phantom array, let alone the strength of the people in the formation in advance.
According to this calculation, their current strength is actually stronger than the patriarch of the Zero Clan at the moment.
Qianji took out the compass from his arms, and because he didn't know what to say, he asked superfluously: "Are you waiting for me?" β
"Didn't you come here just to compete with me?" Tang Lu curled his lips and chuckled.
If he wasn't waiting for a thousand machines, why would he have been dancing swords here, he grew up in Phantom City since he was a child, and after coming here, there are many places to go.
I really couldn't find a reason to continue talking nonsense, so Qianji simply stretched out his hand holding the compass and said, "Since you know what I'm here for, let's start." β
The battle between Xiaoying and Shuqi has begun, and as the white-clothed Mo said with a smile, only after solving Tang Lu can he stand by Xiaoying's side and stop the crisis in front of her for her.
"Don't you wait for Xiaoying?" In Tang Lu's clear memory, where there are thousands of machines, there must be small shadows, just like where there are small shadows, there must be thousands of machines.
Unexpectedly, Tang Lu would replace Xiaoying, Qianji frowned, and the compass he was about to play was forcibly taken back by him, and then said affirmatively: "You are not waiting for me." β
"You're the one I'm waiting for, but Xiaoying should be there too, isn't it?" Tang Lu smiled, not feeling that there was anything wrong with him mentioning Xiaoying now.
Shu Fan reminded him right, the enemy of Qianji cannot be taken lightly, after all, he is the second young master of the demon clan, even if he has no experience in the unique environment of the demon realm, his strength can be regarded as strong in the seven cities, but what Tang Lu has to wait for is to be able to wipe out his own strength, and Qianji may be able to seriously injure him, but there is no way to erase it.
"She's not coming today." Qianji sank his face.
Somehow, he suddenly thought that it would be nice if he hadn't recovered his memories before coming here, so that he wouldn't have known that he had watched his sweetheart approach the arms of the person in front of him, let alone that three years ago, it was the man in front of him who hurt Xiaoying and caused her to walk into the cemetery step by step from her original happiness.
This qiΔ, to be precise, doesn't matter what Tang Lu does, if you really want to count it, he has forgotten the unforgettable things after paying his feelings at most, so that everyone on the emotional line has deviated from the original path.
Qianji's statement made Tang Lu realize that something was wrong, but he didn't have a chance to continue thinking and verifying, because Qianji's compass was already close to his body, and if he didn't stop it, he would have to suffer sooner or later.
The neat raised sword dodged, with a sharp hidden blade, it was not difficult to resist the attack of the compass, taking advantage of the opportunity to recall the compass, Tang Lu did not forget to ask: "Did Shuqi find Xiaoying so quickly?" β
"What do you say?" At the same time as Qianji asked rhetorically, the compass in his hand was unceremoniously typed again.
Shu Qi has lived in the area under the jurisdiction of the demon girl for a long time, taking care of Shu Xuan all year round, without Shu Xuan's instructions, never stepping out of the house half a step, even if his sense of direction is good, it is impossible to find this phantom city that is still mostly in ruins so quickly, if there is no Tang Lu's leadership, Qian Ji thought, even if Shu Qi came to this ruin, it would take a lot of thought to find them.
Therefore, all he could think of was Tang Lu pointing out the way for Shuqi.
Hearing the annoyance in Qianji's words, after Tang Lu blocked the compass again, he suddenly took a few steps back, and seeing that Qianji still wanted to continue attacking, he hurriedly put his Hidden Blade Hidden Edge in front of him and said, "Slow, I think there is a misunderstanding between us." β
"Three years ago, there was no longer a misunderstanding between us." Qianji didn't recognize it, but the compass didn't come out of his hand.
At this moment, the last thing Tang Lu wanted to mention was three years ago, and he now remembers that history vaguely, only knowing that he had lost a girl, and he didn't know anything else.
"Qianji, Xiaoying fancy you, you shouldn't be the stubborn look you are now." Because of what happened three years ago, everyone here was hostile to him, which was already clear to him as early as the moment Tang Lu became the patriarch of the Zero Clan, and in order to calm down Qianji, he had to move Xiaoying out.
Facts have proved that talking about things in the name of Xiaoying is very effective for Qianji.
Without entanglement with Tang Lu about what happened three years ago, Qianji received the compass behind him and agreed to Tang Lu's request for a temporary truce.
It was clear that Qianji would not give too much time to explain, and Tang Lu said straight to the point: "Shuqi was brought to the Phantom City by me, but I didn't tell him your address. β
"Do you want to say, is there anyone else who will sue SΓΉ Shuqi?" Qian Ji snorted coldly, making it clear that he didn't believe Tang Lu's statement.
Sighing helplessly, Tang Lu didn't know much about Qianji, so he didn't know how to explain it to him, so that he would believe, clenched the sword in his hand, imagining when Qianji's compass might make another move, Tang Lu really wanted Xiaoying to end her battle quickly, after all, only when she was over, would she come over to help him explain clearly.
The two looked at each other for a long time, Tang Lu didn't speak again, and when Qianji had finished speaking, the compass in his hand appeared again, but this time, before he could make a move, a nine-tailed fox suddenly appeared in front of Tang Lu.
"Fan'er?"
Compared with Qianji, Tang Lu was much more surprised by Shu Fan who appeared with the ontology at this time.
He thought that he had done enough ruthlessness to cut off all contact with Shu Fan at one time, so that Shu Fan would be desperately by the side of the next Zero Clan Patriarch, but now it seems that the ruthlessness he thought did not play the original role at all.
didn't look back, Shu Fan just stared at Qianji in front of him with those fierce beast eyes, and then opened his mouth and said, "I thought about it, it's better to repay your favor now." β
"You don't owe me a favor." Tang Lu's face was a little ugly.
He knew very well what Shu Fan said was that he kept saving her at the beginning, but he also clearly knew that he would save Shu Fan at the beginning, all for a purpose.
Shaking her head, in fact, Shu Fan didn't want to argue with Tang Lu about anything, she came here just to reassure herself, after all, the only person who had been good to her was Tang Lu.
In the words of their nine-tailed fox clan, it is her appearance that everyone values, only the former Tang Lu, who saved her not because of her charm, but because he wanted to save her, just because of this, Shu Fan felt that he should come out to help Tang Lu, anyway, at this time, the elders all got together to discuss other things, and she had time to come out and move freely.
"Qianji Gongzi, fighting with you with my nine-tailed fox body, I should be able to delay until Xiaoying defeats Shu Qi, and then the battle between Law and Xiaoying, I hope you don't interfere." No longer caring about Tang Lu's thoughts, Shu Fan smiled at Qianji.
Frowning, Qianji was obviously unwilling to accept this statement, after all, he came here to quickly solve the problem between himself and Tang Lu, and then hurry up to help Xiaoying, but according to Shu Fan's statement, she seemed to conclude that he couldn't beat Tang Lu, let alone get rid of her, the nine-tailed fox, so he had no other way but to wait for Xiaoying to solve Shuqi.
"I don't think you have the qualifications." Qianji retorted coldly.
Shu Fan said without showing weakness: "At the beginning, I didn't think that Xiaoying had the qualifications to be able to fight against Shuqi. β
"Why do you want Xiaoying and Tang Lu to fight?" Strange beasts are generally very persistent in doing things, and the things they decide will never change, this point Qianji has seen many times on the white-clothed Mo Xiao, so he had to ask in a different way.
"It's necessary." Shu Fan replied simply.
"What is necessary?" Qianji asked.
Intuition told him that there was something important that he did not know.
"This ......"
"Fan'er, that's about me and Xiaoying, you'd better not say it." Before Shu Fan could decide whether to say it or not, Tang Lu interrupted her thinking by saying something.
With Tang Lu's words, Shu Fan obviously couldn't say the answer again, Qian Ji just crossed the figure of the nine-tailed fox and looked at Tang Lu, since when did this figure he had seen several times also begin to become strange and weird, and it was only now that he found a trace of breath from him that did not belong to a living person.
The word "you ......" rolled out of his throat, and the next answer was about to come out, but he couldn't say anything.
Qianji looked at Tang Lu quietly like that, seeing that he first frowned, then turned his back and coughed, and then turned around again.
It was determined that Tang Lu's body was a little strange, and Qianji seemed to be detecting clearly, but before he took a step forward, the tail of the nine-tailed fox greeted him unceremoniously, and the compass fell to the ground to form an enchantment, and when resisting the attack of the nine-tailed fox, it also tragically trapped Qianji in a small enchantment.
Sure that Qianji couldn't come forward again, Shu Fan wagged his tail proudly, like a child who wanted to ask his elders for a reward after doing something good.
Of course, Tang Lu, who was standing behind her, couldn't reward her, and he wouldn't even say a word of thanks.
However, she didn't expect to be rewarded, anyway, from the very beginning, she chose to come out to help Tang Lu, and she already knew that she would not get anything in return, after all, from the moment she took over the double cultivation technique in Tang Lu's hands, she already knew that the two of them were about to become strangers.
one to the east and one to the west; One seeks the light, the other pursues the darkness. No matter how you say it, they are two extremes, and there is no other possibility than to go further and further.
Perhaps, after a long time, they are tired of walking with each other and stop to rest, and it is possible to see each other's figures in boring memories, but that is only occasionally, after all, no one can say whether there will be a person like Qianji and Xiaoying around them, who want to look at each other.
