24. Family
This time the soul extraction was extremely difficult.
Lu Lianshan's soul and ghosts have been mixed together for seventeen years, and it has been difficult to distinguish each other, and even his soul has been infected by the wind and thunder god, becoming a distorted product between human souls and ghosts.
The wind and thunder god who controls the wind and thunder, this is a powerful ghost, Dongying has a legend about it since ancient times, and compared with the weak evil spirits in the body of those half-finished ghost warriors, it is an out-and-out big guy.
Lu Lianshan's seventeen years of warmth and nourishment have constantly fed it to its soul, allowing it to grow continuously, until now it is almost complete.
can push Lu Lianshan, a person who does not practice martial arts at all, into the realm of rivaling the half-step heavenly list, but what this ghost spirit gave him is more of a supernatural power, which cannot make up for Lu Lianshan's lack of martial arts.
If he was like Lu Guizang and had a peerless swordsmanship, Shen Qiu would not have won so easily.
“...”
In the process of extracting the soul, Shen Qiu infiltrated the soul body, and also saw the memories of that scene, which Lu Lianshan wanted to show him.
He finally knew what Lu Lianshan meant by what he said to him before he took a breath.
Tonight in Guizang Villa, in addition to Dongying Ghost Martial Arts, there is also the high-rise of the behemoth of the Hidden Tower.
They were all deliberately placed here by Lu Lianshan at a good time, and in the confrontation just now, Lu Lianshan used several waves of thunder swords to seem to attack the intruders, but in fact, he killed those important people on the upper floors of the hidden building.
This is a gift for Shen Qiu.
What a gift.
Although all the high-level commanders of the Hidden Building have not been eradicated, there are still masters of the Hidden Building in the outside world.
But tonight's battle, the upper floor of the hidden building has been paralyzed by the first war, like an adult who has been knocked down by a brick, his limbs are still intact, but his brain has been burned out by some stimulating things.
Such confusion? Even if Penglai has the intention to reorganize? It's not a year or two, and there's no way to clean up the mess.
Without a unified command from the top? The behemoth of the hidden building? It became a piece of meat in front of Shen Qiu's eyes.
Slaughtered.
"Isn't it utter madness that is terrifying, he's consciously indulging his madness? What was scary was the ghosts in his heart, not the things he hated.
It's the things he desperately wants to protect. ”
Shen Qiu stood up? Look at the corpse that is reverting to its human form at your feet.
That demon-like face? Little by little, he turned back into Lu Lianshan, but the wound torn on his heart could not be recovered, just like the life that had been lost, which could not be recovered.
"Am I right?"
Shen Qiu looked at the remaining blood stains on his fingers.
He turned his head? Looking behind you? It seems to be seeking recognition.
After a round of destruction, in the ruins of chaos and dead silence, under the bright moonlight, a slender man was quietly walking this way.
Is he wearing a cloak of hair? I can vaguely see that he is wearing a green shirt.
With a sword in your hand, quaint? Atmospheric sword.
The hilt of the sword has a pattern of a turtle swallowing a snake, and a slightly coquettish sword spike is tied.
It is the sword of Dongfang Ce.
True Martial Snake Sword.
Like the first today? The former saber of Junyoko of Mount Taiyue.
But the sword-wielder is not Dongfang Ce.
Under loose hair? Those bloodshot eyes don't seem to be in focus? His gaze crossed over Shen Qiu? It fell to the dead body that had fallen to the ground behind Shen Qiu, and there was no longer life.
That's "his" son.
That's his brother.
The moment Shen Qiu turned around.
Two completely different strands of anger, but with the same origin, and finally come together again.
It's like a wildfire, at first there is only a spark, but when the spark falls into the soul that is no longer alive, it will ignite the flames that will burn the world.
The whole world seems to have darkened, just because a very complicated person died.
He was a step late.
The anger at the perpetrator, the pain of his own incompetence, those emotions, made the Xuan Snake Sword in his hand roar lightly, and an indescribable aura spread outward from this person's body.
Silently, and pervasively.
Moon.
A bright moon appeared in front of Shen Qiu's eyes, and there was a quiet sound of the sea tide, which appeared in his ears, and the sea water under the moon flowed quietly, and the reflection of the bright moon appeared in the water.
The gap between the sky and the sea became blurred, as if the sea and the sky were the same color, and it seemed like there were two moons, one up and one down.
Secluded, long, and relaxing.
I couldn't help but sink into the silence of this scene, making people ignore everything around them, even the dazzling cold blade that cut to the neck melted into the quiet sword intent of the sea and moonlight.
A spirit dragon rises from the sea.
Antlers, long whiskers, mane, fish scales.
Ethereal, impermanent, full of charm.
The spirit dragon suddenly opened a huge kiss, and was about to swallow Shen Qiu, who was silent in the sword intent, into his belly.
"Bell"
The impermanence of the two fingers accurately buckled on the blade of the Xuan Snake Sword, just like the blade of the sword cut into the rotten wood, and entered the wood for three points, but it could not completely cut the obstacle in front of him.
Although the blade of the sword had already touched Shen Qiu's neck, and even brought out a trace of red thread, an inch closer to it could cut his throat open and take off his head.
"Ningbo Lu family, the moon is bright and the sea is bright."
Shen Qiu clasped the blade of his sword.
Feeling the slight pain in his neck, he said in a quiet tone:
"It's really extraordinary, if it weren't for the killing intent in my heart that was too great, disturbing the emanation of sword intent, Shen would be in a catastrophe tonight."
"Die!"
What answered him was a roar mixed with forbidden killing intent in the old man, this emotion was so real that it was difficult to distinguish, who was the one who came out with the sword in front of him, Lu Guizang?
Or his father, Tianbang, Lu Wenfu?
It's just that the opportunity has been missed, and the next thing is a head-on collision.
The figures of the two disappeared at the same time, reappearing four feet away.
The opening of the sky punch, driven by the Lethe River Gong, with a five-color qi machine, hit Lu Guizang in the roar.
The latter moved a little, and the exquisite sword Yu Yunbu seemed to disturb the spatial orientation, allowing this punch to pass by.
A dragon roared under the moon, swept over the top of Shen Qiu's head, blended into the breath, and brought out a few strands of broken hair when the light was withdrawn.
The fist strength and sword qi staggered, tearing down half of the room that remained on his side.
Smoke and dust are flying.
The figures of the two had already jumped into the air, the long sword was shining, and it was caught by the black fist blades, and Lu Guizang kicked forward with the wind blade with his left foot, rolling up the wind and sweeping the ground, leaving sword marks on the ground.
was blocked by the Nirvana Qi Shield around Shen Qiu for a moment, and when the Qi Shield was shattered, Shen Qiu was also at the same time, and at the same time, the feet of the two of them brought up a few afterimages.
You come and go, crash together, the wind blade splits, and the cold splashes out.
Shen Qiu's calf was full of blood, and Lu Guizang's left leg was frozen entirely.
"Wow"
The long sword was drawn, the blade of the fist clenched, and it fought in the air.
The figure separated, falling into both sides.
"Bang"
The floor under Shen Qiu's feet shattered, and Lu Guizang forced the cold air out of his body, so that within a zhang, the ground was all frozen.
That's the appetizer.
Another wisp of black sand aura was extracted from the sword jade and was held in the palm of Shen Qiu's hand, and this Lu Guizang in front of him was a top martial artist, which was already difficult. Now there is an extra father's spirit in the body.
Under normal circumstances, it can be suppressed a little, but if you don't use the Divine Martial Arts, I'm afraid it will be difficult to win.
And Lu Guizang's side is the same source of anger.
is merging the estrangement between the two souls, and Lu Guizang even consciously relinquishes control of his body to his father.
It was difficult for him to defeat Shen Qiu.
But Lu Wenfu should be able to, and Lu Wenfu's state at this time is also a little strange, and it seems that his mind is not clear.
The people of Penglai said that his soul was damaged, but according to Shen Qiu's guess, Penglai should be the one who got in the way.
As a left-handed demon, it is easy to draw people's souls, even if the soul is missing, it will not be muddy for seventeen years, looking at him, he will only have an instinctive counterattack to the stimulation of the outside world.
The temptations just now are proof that he can fight on a par and prove that he is not in a state of contentment.
"Daddy!"
Just when the two confronted each other, the qi machine called for confrontation, and the momentum was rising, and they were about to fight to the death.
A hoarse voice sounded from the edge of the ruins, covering her forehead, Lu Yuniang, who staggered over, shouted fiercely towards Lu Guizang in the field.
"Second brother!"
These two shouts, whether they moved Lu Guizang and Lu Wenfu first, always moved Shen Qiu first.
He glanced at Lu Yuniang, who was teary with tears in his eyes.
The heart said, "You girl, what is your name Daddy?" Or is it called the second brother?
You made Shen so messy.
Spit and complain, Shen Qiu also noticed that the moment Lu Yuniang and Dongfang followed closely behind, the moment the two appeared, Lu Guizang's killing intent in front of him suddenly collapsed.
Xu was awakened for a minute, took a step back, and a trace of confusion appeared in his eyes.
But seeing that Lu Yuniang and Dongfang Ce were about to step forward, he immediately took a deep look at Shen Qiu, turned around and flew out, and with a rise and fall, he disappeared into the night outside Guizang Villa.
Such a master.
If you want to run, you can't stop it at all.
Seeing Lu Guizang flying away from here, Lu Yuniang, who was walking forward, stopped, stunned.
The girl was bleeding from her forehead and her face was a little pale.
She looked at the back of her second brother who disappeared into the night, and her eyes were full of sadness.
It's a pity that something more sad than sadness is still in front of us.
When she turned around, she happened to see Shen Qiu take a few steps to the side, revealing the ruins of the antechamber behind him, and the corpse lying in a pool of blood lying in the ruins.
"Big brother!"
Lu Yuniang screamed and took two steps forward, despair and sadness overwhelmed her at this moment.
Big brother is dead.
The second brother is gone, and his father's life and death are unknown.
Guizang Villa was destroyed, and overnight, the family was ruined.
The terrifying impact hit the heart of this girl who was not yet twenty years old, and everything around her seemed to be spinning and no longer real.
Under Shen Qiu's gaze with pity, her feet went soft and she fell to her knees.
I still have to struggle to get up, but every time I look at the corpse of my eldest brother, I feel a little desperate.
After taking three steps, his eyes rolled over, and he could no longer bear the weight of this calamity, and he fainted.
"At least you're reunited, and no one can separate you."
Shen Qiu stepped forward and sighed lightly, letting out an unclear sigh.
He picked up the unconscious Lu Yuniang, surprised that this girl was as light as a feather, perhaps because she was too sad, and her soul left her body.
What remains here is only a pale, filled shell of sorrow.
He stretched out his hand, brushed Lu Yuniang's hair, wiped the blood from her face, and then handed the girl to Dongfang Ce, who was weak and had not yet detoxified.
The injured Liu Zhuoran and Hua Qing soon rushed over, and in the neighing of the white cat, Zhang Lan, who was a little embarrassed, also appeared after a few breaths.
He was holding the kitten in his arms, and the expression on his face was definitely not good-looking.
"The owner of the hidden building has been ambushed."
Shen Qiu stretched out his hand and interrupted what Zhang Lan wanted to say.
He said:
"But among the people who escaped from the villa tonight, there are also the upper floors of the hidden building, I know everyone is tired, but now is not the time to rest. If he misses tonight, he will be in great trouble every day.
Mobilize all the personnel of the Five Elements Gate, chase and kill, everyone who breaks out tonight must die! ”
Zhang Lan nodded.
He glanced at Lu Lianshan's corpse and turned to leave.
"East."
Shen Qiu said to Dongfang Ce, who was holding Lu Yuniang:
"If you are injured, you will first send this little girl to Tiantong Temple, where she will recuperate and recover, and then you will need to help you in many things.
I know you're worried about Lu Guizang, but about him, let's talk about it later, okay? ”
Dongfang Ce is not a person who does not understand the situation.
Seeing Shen Qiu's serious face, he pursed his lips and nodded, Shen Qiu whistled, and the scream of the Thrilling Beast came out of the night sky.
It was guiding Shen Qiu, the direction of those who had escaped, and watching Shen Qiu sweep into the night, Dongfang Ce sighed.
He looked down at his arms, as if he was asleep, but he still frowned, as if he had a nightmare, Lu Yuniang, and his heart was really mixed.
Nightmares are not scary, what is scary is reality.
Tomorrow, after Lu Yuniang sobers up, how should this girl who has not been deeply involved in the world face all this?
Alas.
Tonight, this night, and this nightmare, it's too long.
