Do you think you can escape from here? ”

As the envoy whispered as if to himself, he reached out and pulled out an arrow from his back that had not yet been fired.

In the firelight, there seemed to be a mist on the tip of the arrow, and I don't know what was wrapped around it.

The envoy raised his hand, threw the arrow with only the strength of his arm, and went straight to the target he had already locked on, and galloped away!

The wind of arrows swept through the branches and trees, like a blade as thin as a cicada's wings. In an instant, the rough wooden trunks around them fell to the ground, leaving only a smooth facet.

Talos's body grazed the ground and rolled over to dodge, but the arrow still cut through his sleeve.

He had no intention of fighting, but hurriedly got up and ran deeper into the border.

"Don't let him run."

The envoy spoke, his voice indifferent as if compared to Talos, he was the emotionless puppet, bent on achieving his goal of eliminating the enemy.

"Yes!"

After several envoys beside him answered, they chased in the direction of Talos's escape!

The white cloaks were particularly dazzling in the night, and they walked very quickly, and in an instant, the trees were dense, but not a single leaf fell on their shoulders.

Talos summoned his sword to fend off the arrows that were still shooting behind him.

For a moment, the quiet Twilight River seemed to have broken into countless giant beasts, only to bring bursts of shadows from the trees and birdsong to disperse.

……

'Plop-'

Just as Rin Rin was running out of the twilight river, she felt her heart flutter violently, as if she was being held by a pair of big hands, and then suddenly let go.

At that moment, the blood seemed to stagnate, and it flowed into the heart violently, causing an indescribable sense of shock.

She stopped, and somehow for a moment she flickered.

When she turned around, she saw that in the deep forest behind her, countless birds and beasts suddenly appeared and scattered, which only made her feel uneasy in her heart.

Rin Rin stopped at the moment, tried to calm down as much as possible, and adjusted his breath, but somehow there was a moment of staggering.

At this time, she only felt as if something in her body was gradually disappearing. It's like a weakening of spiritual power, and it's like something is being pulled away, and it's getting weaker and weaker.

This feeling seems to be ......

As she thought about it, Rin Rin's eyes suddenly widened, and she looked at the place on her arm where she and Talos had the seal of the contract!

“…… How, how could this be. ”

I saw that on the arm, the originally clear contract seal, at this time, there was only a faint trace. It's like a child's random graffiti on the wall is wiped off, but it can't be completely cleaned up for a while, and only a few brushstrokes are left in it.

At this moment, Rin Rin's thoughts seemed to be frozen.

Suddenly, she turned sharply and looked around at the flocks of birds flying in the distance. and on the trees on the side of him, the young spirits that were still comfortably perched on them fell one after another.

In a trance, she seemed to suddenly understand something, and without a moment of hesitation, she turned back to the small cabin where she had lived before!

After all, she was too careless, and she didn't expect that Uncle Xuanyu could be in danger and come alone. And Yun Yin's magic envoy, how could he easily let go of Talos and let go of those Yeren who had infiltrated the border.

She sped towards Talos's place, but her body grew weaker and weaker. The speed of spiritual power consumption in her body was much faster than she imagined.

And this series of physical reactions, and the sudden drop in spiritual power, all of them no longer indicate one thing. That is, the contract...... Being forcibly lifted.

"Damn, when did you do it......?"

Rin Rin's hands were clenched into fists, and his complexion, which was already a little pale due to excessive blood loss, was even more bloodless white on his joints at this time.

She just whispered, but in addition to anxiety and impatience, there was more self-blame in her voice.

Because, no matter how she conceives and deduces, there is only one suspect who can do all this.

That's it, Uncle Xuanyu......

Recalling that when he first arrived in Yunyin, Xuan Wu had already bluntly said, "If one day you feel that your body can't match, tell him that he will terminate the contract between the two." ”

These words, word by word, echoed clearly in Rinrin's ears.

Moreover, not many people know about the methods of disarming the contract. But Xuan Yu had worked with Rin's father and was the executive officer of the Yunyin Association. Whether it is spiritual power, or all kinds of spiritual arts, they are quite involved.

And most importantly, before Talos returned, the only thing she had seen was Xuanxuan.

Now that Talos is unconscious, if there really is a cloud hidden demon envoy to pass, it is not for nothing......

Rin thought so, but her body suddenly fell to the ground without obeying the call!

The dead branches on the ground cut her forearm, and although the wound was not deep, a wisp of pale red oozed from the surface of the skin.

Immediately after, a red thread spread out of her arm, like a silk thread leading the way, through the fallen leaves and weeds on the ground, only winding towards the depths ahead.

This red thread is very similar to the one that first awakened Talos in the twilight.

The blood-red thread went deep into the shadows of the trees, and I thought it would stretch all the way to where Talos was, but when it was completely submerged in darkness, it suddenly seemed to be pulled by some great force, and it was tightly straightened!

……

The border of the twilight river, the end of the depths.

The darkness seemed to engulf all the light and shadow, except for the few white cloaks that danced in them, as if all life had ceased to exist.

Talos pressed the spirit mark on his arm, and his body was covered with marks from the flying blades of arrows.

The surface of the puppet's body, which was originally smooth, is now covered with scratches of various shades, as well as scars that have clearly been attacked and cannot be dodged, so they only use their arms to carry them alive.

He resisted all the way, but was eventually forced to a waterfall at the top of a cliff deep in the twilight river.

"Now that you've been sealed in a puppet, where you came from and where you go back. Say, I'm right, Tar Talos. ”

As he spoke, one of the demon envoys slowly walked out.

“……”

The moment the other party said his name, Talos was visibly stunned.

"I don't know what you're talking about, although I'm not a demon envoy directly under Yun Yin, but as a contract spirit, I think I shouldn't have a reason to be rounded up."

Talos looked back and glanced at the rushing water behind him, and although he had been forced to retreat, he was not stupid enough to admit anything, or just tie his hands down.

"There's no need to disguise, I already know your identity and origin."

The man's voice was calm, not so much a conversation between the two as a unilateral announcement of the end of Talos by the envoy.

"Really? Why don't I know anything myself, but you, a stranger, seem to know everything. ”

"Perhaps, we are not strangers or necessarily."

As he spoke, he saw the envoy raise his hand and remove the white mask he was wearing on his face.

Under the mask, the face of a middle-aged man with few fine lines appeared in front of Talos's eyes under the reflection of the moonlight like a fine veil. And this magic envoy is none other than the executive officer of the Cloud Hidden Association, Xuan Xuan.

"It's you."

A hint of disgust flashed in Talos's eyes.

In fact, since he first met Xuanfu, he has never had a good impression of this man.

Because of the intricate spiritual aura on his body, and his seemingly kind face. Talos always felt that this man must be hiding some secret that no one knew and could not be made public.

Especially, when he was obviously wary and kept his distance from him, Xuan Wu seemed to deliberately suppress and restrain the aura of those spirits on his body.

If it's not for fear of people noticing, why bother?

"It's also my negligence, how can a puppet that hasn't been registered with the armed puppet system be left by Rin's father. After all, it was I thinking too much that caused today's troublesome situation. ”

Xuan Yu took out a pair of black gloves from his pants pocket, and just said as he put them on his hands.

"So, you're here to investigate my background and origin?"

"There's nothing to investigate, didn't I already say it just now, I already know everything about you. After all, with your ability, if I make a rash move, I will always have no advantage, but if I ......"

As he spoke, Xuan Wu had put on his black gloves, squatted on the ground leisurely, and began to grope his way around the wet/soft land under his feet, which was full of dead branches and leaves.

"Do you know that half of the words are annoying."

Talos watched him warily, though his words were not overtly hostile. But he was just waiting, waiting for the other party to let his guard down a little bit, so that he could have a chance to get out of here.

"Eh, I found it."

Suddenly, as if he had found some treasure from the ground, he ignored Talos's words. And he looked very happy.

Talos stared at what Xuan Yu had picked up from the ground.

This is......

I saw Xuan Yu get up, ignoring the sticky dirt hanging from his gloves, and clutching a pale red silk thread in his hand, for fear that he would lose it again if he was not careful.

"This is what I didn't say just now, your biggest weakness as an armed puppet ......" As he spoke, Xuan Wu pulled the red silk thread in his hand, and the corners of his lips suddenly raised a sneer. Once you don't have an owner, you're just an ordinary doll. ”

"How can this line be in your hands!"

At this time, in Talos's heterochromatic eyes, an uncontrollable anger began to rise. And in addition to anger, there is also an indescribable emotion that lurks deep and is ready to be released.

"Instead of one, you might as well think about how I found this place and how I know about your identity. Again, how do you cancel the ...... of your contract with Rin?"

Xuan Mo smiled as he watched as the expression on Talos' face gradually changed from anger to unspeakable sadness and despair......

As far as Talos was concerned, every word that Xuan Yu had just said, and even every word, was like a sharp knife, piercing into the deepest and weakest part of his heart one after another.

"Hahahaha, that's how it ......" Suddenly, I saw Talos laughing wildly.

At the same time, in the midst of this burst of laughter, Xuan Yu also ripped off the contract line connecting Rin and Talos, completely severing the only remaining bond between the two.

……

And Rin Rin, who was far away somewhere on the border of the Twilight River, seemed to have been drained of his last strength at this moment.

Although I didn't know what was going on, I clearly looked at the red silk thread in front of me, which had broken suddenly like a taut string......
