Chapter 11: The Deceased

Xi turned around and pinched the spear that had stabbed him without a claw. The tip of the spear stayed two inches away from Xi's throat, the cold light flickered, and the cross blade.

"Let go of my brother. โ€

"Haven't I let go already? See you again, Lastman. If you can't show your strength again this time, I'm going to retract my promise to Your Majesty that you can't be rash. โ€

"You won't be disappointed. Xi held the hand of the dragon spear and secretly exerted his strength.

"Then it's up to you to perform!"

Xi suddenly let go of the Devilless Claw and disappeared. As soon as the tip of the last soldier's gun was loosened, he immediately turned around and swept away. With a bang, the dragon roared and was blocked by the claws of no devil. Seeing that the sneak attack failed, Xi set up the dragon gun and disappeared again. The last soldier stabbed his spear to the left, and a figure suddenly appeared in the direction of the tip of the spear. There was another "bang", the tip of the gun pierced into the palm of the devil's claw, and another sneak attack was blocked.

Seeing this, Xi grabbed the tip of the gun, turned his left hand into a quick fist, and blasted towards the last soldier.

The last soldier grabbed the tail of the dragon spear and used the length of the spear to skillfully control the distance and dodge Xi's heavy punches.

After a few misses, Xi no longer attacked rashly, but put his left hand behind his back as a defense, and used all his strength to fight for the dragon spear.

To put it simply, the strength of the last soldier is stronger than Xi. Xi's strength lies in the combination of speed and strength, as well as the lethality of the devil's claws in close hand-to-hand combat, rather than such one-on-one wrestling. The strength of the last soldier is accuracy and strength, which can also be seen from the weight and shape of the dragon gun. The Crossblade Dragon Lance is a little less tough and dexterous than an ordinary spear, but much stronger than it.

In peacetime, the last soldier would never be afraid of such a wrestling. In fact, when the two fought in the city, the last soldier picked up the Xilian people with their guns and threw them away in the battle for guns. But now, the last soldier was stabbed in the shoulder, and the injury affected the strength of the last soldier. And because of the secret method on the ring tower, Xi also has some detachment. The two maintained a slight balance of power in power.

The wound on the shoulder of the last soldier began to seep blood, and the dragon spear gradually moved in the direction of Xi.

"It seems that Your Excellency's injuries are not light. โ€

"The envoy has run out of patience so soon, didn't he say that it depends on my true ability?"

Xi didn't reply, the right hand fighting for the dragon gun was still strong, but the left arm behind his back was covered with a black shadow.

"Have you ever heard of it, Vertical Cloud Slash?"

As soon as the words fell, the last soldier and the dragon spear turned into a white line and stabbed Xi in the chest. At the same time, the shadow on Xi's left arm instantly covered his whole body, and the whole person turned into several wisps of black smoke and dissipated in place, dodging the thrust of the white line.

The white line passed through the ethereal black smoke and through an ancient tree, and then turned into a man with a steel gun again. The barrel of the gun is covered with blood-colored lines, forming the shape of a dragon. In the ancient tree behind the man, a small hole the thickness of a finger runs through the trunk.

"Your Excellency, good marksmanship. Xi did not reappear, only the sound of the trees surrounded.

"The superior is very skilled. The last soldier responded, gripped the dragon gun tightly. Xi's secret technique was indeed beyond his expectations, and he was able to dodge the Cloud Slash.

Xi did not respond, nor did she appear. The last soldier didn't know if he was gone or waiting for a sneak attack, so he had to stay where he was.

The woods were silent, and the moonlight shone through the branches on the ground. Only the last soldier was silent with a gun in the forest, Gan Sheng was unconscious, and there may be a pair of eyes full of murderous intent in the dark. The unknown is the most frightening, even if you know that he may not exist at all.

"Ugh. After a long time, the black qi on Gan Sheng's body gradually disappeared, and he struggled to squeak.

"Brother, be careful, he may not have left yet. The last soldier still held the dragon gun in his hand, stood in place and said to Gan Sheng.

"How long have I been fainting. Gan Sheng's consciousness began to wake up, but his eyes had not yet opened.

"Not long, less than half an hour. The last soldier was still looking around.

"Are you alright?" Gan Sheng struggled to get up half of his body and held the Nine Sins Qin in his arms.

"I'm fine, I fought with Xi, and no one got a bargain. It's you, this injury is not light, almost ruined. The last soldier finally confirmed that Xi had left, put the dragon gun behind him, came to Gan Sheng's side, and helped the person up.

"Hehe, underestimate the enemy. But this guy always says he knows me, why don't I remember?"

The last soldier helped Gan Sheng to leave, and when he heard Gan Sheng's words, he said, "By the way, I haven't told you yet." Before this Xi joined the charm department, it was ยทยทยทยทยทยท"

As the two were talking, the last soldier stepped on a small pile of broken leaves, and there was a "click". History repeats itself again, and at the moment when this slight interference sound appeared, Xi swept down from the sky like a huge ghost bat, and the cold light of the tip of the claw without a devil's claw flickered, heading straight for Gan Sheng's head.

Gan Sheng's slender ears shook slightly, and he exclaimed, "Be careful!" kicked the Nine Sins Piano with his left foot, kicked it up, and pressed his right hand on the fourth and ninth strings, and the sound of the piano was low.

"It is said that it is sad and falling, and it is crying for the souls. โ€

The sound wall was built again. But in his hurry, the Devilless Claw actually broke through the defense of the sound wall, and his fingertips pierced the skin on the back of Gan Sheng's neck. But that's all, and you can't go even half an inch deeper.

The last soldier pulled out the dragon spear and stabbed Xi's eyebrows. Xi dodged and wanted to dodge, Gan Sheng immediately stroked the qin with his left hand, buckled the fifth and ninth strings, and the nine sins piano pierced out a burst of trill.

"It is said that the private is falling, and the abyss of devouring the yuan. โ€

Beyond the sound wall, spatial ripples spread into a whirlpool, sucking the claws of the devil in. But Gan Sheng forgot about the serious injury on his left shoulder, and as soon as the five-nine strings and rhyme were played, the wound on the shoulder was involved, and the blood dripped on the Nine Sins Piano. Under the severe pain, his left hand began to disobey the call, and the Yuan Devouring Abyss only lasted for a moment.

Xi drew his claws, but the tip of the spear was already in front of him. Xi struggled to dodge, and the dragon spear grazed the side of his face, raising a line of blood in the air and stabbing Xi's ghost mask. Xi rolled a few times again, dodging the pursuit of the last soldier's spear.

"The envoy is really focused. Gan Sheng picked up the ghost mask on the ground, "Now you can tell me who you are, right?"

The moonlight shone through the branches and leaves, and the shadows of the trees were dappled. Xi leaned against an ancient tree, her whole body hidden in the night, looking at Gan Sheng from afar, and did not respond.

"You mean, you saw me five years ago. But I can't remember seeing you before. โ€

Xi still didn't reply, and the last soldier whispered beside Gan Sheng: "I just wanted to tell you that before Xi joined the Mei Ministry, he was actually the missing Yisang Wu Son, have you met the Wu Son?"

Gan Sheng was stunned when he heard this, and after a long time, he smiled bitterly: "No wonder, it turns out that the envoy is the son of the Wu family back then, and he is clumsy." โ€

"Hehe, if you can really recognize me now, that's clumsy. Xi finally spoke.

"Wu Gongzi, let's make it clear. I'm sorry about what happened back then. But we mercenaries are doing the work of licking blood from the knife edge, and it is the employer who speaks, and it has nothing to do with us. The Wu clan is now empty, which can be regarded as an explanation of the original matter. The king of Hades is gone, so why can't you get along with me, a little ghost?" Gan Sheng said to Xi.

"What do you mean, you two?" the last soldier was stunned when he heard the conversation between the two.

"Do you know the specific situation at the beginning?" Gan Sheng asked the last soldier.

"Yes. โ€

"Well, I'll tell you. At that time, the killer hired by the Wu clan to entangle Xi was me. That makes sense. At that time, in order to get out, Xi forcibly picked up me in front of me. That rhyme is an eight-string harmony, saying anger and desire, killing gods. โ€

"Are you done talking about the old days?" Xi interrupted Gan Sheng's words, "You do have some strength, I can't kill you today." Make it easy for you, return the mask to me, and I'll be right away. โ€

The last soldier took the ghost mask from Gan Sheng's hand and said, "Envoy Xi, we don't want to embarrass you and the Xiling Empire. However, I promised to protect the safety of Princess Jin Huang, and I would not watch my brother Gan Sheng die, if you have to insist, then you can only meet each other in the future. As far as I know, your lover was rescued by you in the end, and the Wu clan also paid the price. In this case, there should not be so much hatred between the envoy and Gan Sheng. โ€

With that, the last soldier threw the mask back to Xi.

"Shan Chenggang told you. Rest assured, all grievances, I will understand them one by one. Xi took the mask, but was not in a hurry to put it on, and walked slowly out of the shadows of the trees.

"Didn't you ask me why I couldn't get along with Gan Sheng? As the sun progressed, the moonlight gradually shone on his face.

The pupils of the last soldier and Gan Sheng shrank, and the gastric juice surged. After knowing that Xi was the son of the Wu family, both of them thought that under the ghost mask was a personable son, and no one expected that it would be such a disgusting thing.

Xi's face was covered with scars from tears and burns, so much so that it was not a human face at all, but rather a patchwork of minced flesh. Xi only has her right eye, and what should have been her left eye is filled with minced flesh. There are two holes left in the ear, as is the nose. The position of the mouth has shifted slightly, the right half of the mouth has grown together, and the left cheek has been torn open. Eyebrows, hair, and all that sort of thing was gone, leaving only a pile of scraps of flesh. It's a disgusting monster that words can't describe.

"Remember that trick that kills gods? I should have died of my injuries after taking that move, but fortunately I met a doctor. Although he saved me, these scars are beyond his power. As I said, the way I am today is all thanks to you. Xi said as he put on the ghost mask, and the two of them felt a little better against their stomachs.

"The next time I kill you, don't ask why?"
