CHAPTER XV
The tip of the sword slid precisely into John's neck muscles, and when it stabbed out again, the sharp blade had already provoked a pooping vessel. This is John's carotid artery, and it seems that Nie Zhaoting is ready to make a last ditch effort.
"I'll pick this vein with three counts. If you are captured, I can guarantee to send him to the Valley of the Living to heal. It's up to you to decide what to do. ”
"One..."
Anne didn't move.
"Two..."
A drop of cold sweat ran down Nie Zhaoting's forehead and down his cheeks. Ying'er was so anxious that she was about to cry, and she seemed to want to step forward to stop her, but she had always been well-behaved, and she couldn't have the courage to resist her elders.
Anne still didn't move.
"Three..."
Slowly, Nie Zhaoting finally spit out the word. At the same time, the atmosphere in the field was immediately tense to the extreme, Xu Dingfeng and the others watched Annie's movements vigilantly with dissatisfied faces, and Zhuo Lingyu and the others also held their breath and did not dare to make a slight move. Chu Duan's right hand tightened, and he pressed the "Tibetan Pan Reincarnation Mantra" on his arm even tighter.
Annie, what exactly will you do?
"I swear, I'll kill you."
Word for word, Anne said slowly, and then threw the sniper bow to her feet.
No matter what they thought in their hearts, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Master..."Xu Dingfeng walked to Nie Zhaoting's side.
"I'm fine." Nie Zhaoting waved his hand as if relieved, and secretly wiped away the cold sweat that covered his forehead.
Then he said to Chu Duan: "Little Brother Chu, I know that your magic power is strong, but there is a way to seal her?" ”
After a moment of silence, Chu Duan nodded and took out something from his arms. This is an iron chain engraved with runes, which is part of the "Spirit Lock Forbidden Demon Array" that once bound the Destroyer and the others.
Walking up to Anne, Chu Duan raised the chain: "I'm going to do it." ”
Annie just looked at Nie Zhaoting calmly: "Keep your promise, otherwise you will definitely regret it." ”
Chilled by her calm gaze, Nie Zhaoting secretly swallowed his saliva, and he immediately reminded himself that this monster would soon be no longer a problem, and there was no need for him to be afraid. However, vaguely, he couldn't shake off the shadow in his heart, as if he had just done something terrible.
"Brother Chu Duan, don't do it, please." Ying'er was in tears.
Sighing gloomily, Chu Duan shook his head: "I have to do this, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable." If you can't bear it, don't look at it. ”
As he spoke, he pressed the end of the chain on Anne's shoulder socket, and without any movement, he pulled it, and the chain had penetrated Anne's body, and a large canopy of blood splashed immediately.
The thin body trembled, and Anne frowned slightly, but she didn't make a sound. Chu Duan grabbed the end of the blood-stained chain and pulled it against Anne's back on the other side. With the pull of the iron chain, the friction of muscles and bones scraped everyone's nerves like an iron comb, Ying'er couldn't bear to look at it anymore, and Zhuo Lingyu and the others couldn't bear to turn sideways slightly.
Anne was as calm as ever, and her peaceful face had a sense of holiness in a trance. At this moment, she is like Joan of Arc on the stake, quietly waiting for the pain to be inflicted on her. Her face was pale from blood loss, which made her always strong have a rare weakness.
A few drops of blood splattered down his cheeks, casting a shocking array of bright reds on his fair skin.
Piercing the two shoulder sockets, Chu Duan grabbed the ends of the hanging iron chain and whispered, "Offended." Then press them under Anne's side and stroke them lightly on the chain.
All the runes on the chain lit up instantly, and they emitted bursts of soft light like flowing neon tubes. Chu Duan took out four Gu egg-like things from his arms and stuffed them into Annie's wounds, and slowly, countless blood-shaped things spread out, covering the wounds on the front and back of her shoulder socket.
From beginning to end, Anne didn't look at Chu Dui, just looked at John quietly. It seems that from this man who has been stoic for herself, she can bring her the courage to endure all pain.
After doing all this, Chu Duan was sweating as if he had just had a fierce fight. Pointing to Anne's eyebrows, he whispered, "Sleep, it will be less painful." ”
*******************************************************************
The spell worked, and Annie, whose demonic power had been completely sealed, finally slowly closed her eyes and fell softly into Chu Dui's arms.
"This is the 'Sealing God Gu'?" I don't know when, Nie Zhaoting walked behind Chu Duan.
"That's right." Chu Duan raised her eyebrows a little strangely.
"Feng Shen Gu is the mystery of the Miao Jiang Spirit Refining Sect, it is rumored that the method of refining has long been lost, why do you have it here? And just now I saw that you even made Emei, Kunlun, and Heavenly Master three factions, where did you learn them? Nie Zhaoting asked casually as if he was careless.
Chu Duan was about to answer, Xu Dingfeng walked behind Nie Zhaoting and whispered, "Master, what should I do with this person?" He pointed to John.
Nie Zhaoting pondered for a moment, and then said, "This person's origin is unknown, let's bring it back to the faction for the time being." ”
"Uncle Nie, won't you send him to the Valley of the Living?" Ying'er said in surprise.
Nie Zhaoting patiently explained: "This person was brought by a monster, maybe he has been brainwashed by a demon, and I can't easily cure him before I figure out the matter." ”
"But, but you just promised..."Ying'er was a little anxious.
Secretly wondering why this girl is so dead-eyed, Nie Zhaoting couldn't help frowning. At this moment, I suddenly heard a disciple of the South Sea Cliff exclaim, "Master, this person is a member of the Knights Templar. ”
"What!?" Turning his head in shock, Nie Zhaoting happened to see the disciple take off an intricately made cross necklace from John's neck.
Over the years, the Eastern School of Art and the Western Holy See have had a lot of exchanges, and they also have a considerable understanding of each other, Nie Zhaoting picked up the necklace and looked at it carefully, and quickly confirmed that it was indeed the symbol of the Knights Templar.
"Strange, how could the Holy See Templars be here? Still with youkai. Pinching the cross, Nie Zhaoting fell into deep thought.
"Master, this matter is very strange, do you see if it is..."Xu Dingfeng wanted to speak and stopped.
Nie Zhaoting waved his hand to signal that he didn't need to say any more, and his eyes unconsciously fell on Ying'er's hand, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned. On the index finger of Ying'er's right hand, there is a dull black gold ring.
"Tianqi Peak Exterminates the Sect, this little girl is wearing the token of the head of the family, and Shi Ling Dao has obviously passed on the position of the head of the sect to her. In any case, she is already the nominal head of Tianqi Peak, and it just so happens that this kid is a Templar, I can't help it, just sell face to this girl, it will always be beneficial in the future. Nie Zhaoting thought to himself. As a businessman, he was still weighing the actual benefits.
After making up his mind, Nie Zhaoting immediately said to Ying'er with a smile on his face: "Since Ying'er said so, I will make an exception and send him to the Valley of the Living." ”
"Really? Uncle Nie, thank you. "Ying'er is overjoyed. After all, she was young, how could she guess Nie Zhaoting's true thoughts at the moment.
"Hmph, this Nie Master is not a fuel-efficient lamp." Zhuo Lingyu, who was watching coldly on the side, said in a low voice.
"Be quiet, it's not our business." And Cush immediately cut him off.
"Master, what should you do with this monster?" Xu Dingfeng asked again.
Nie Zhaoting wanted to simply say that he would kill her, but he had already let it out just now, not to mention that there were so many juniors staring at him, and he couldn't do too much.
So he could only say: "Locked up in the back mountain, remember to put a few more layers of prohibition." ”
Nodding, Xu Dingfeng took Anne and left. Nie Zhaoting said to Zhuo Lingyu and the others: "This time the South China Sea Cliff suddenly suffered a catastrophe, thank you for your help, if you don't give up, please go to the faction to rest." ”
Before he finished speaking, Tianyue said anxiously: "I've been busy on the road these days, and I haven't eaten a full meal, I'm almost starving to death." Uncle Nie has something to eat, hurry up and take it out. ”
"Hehe, I don't have anything else in Nanhai Cliff, I can still manage enough food, come with me." As he spoke, Nie Zhaoting led the way before he walked by himself.
"It's a shame, you said you were going to die in private? Look at how others laugh. Zhuo Lingyu pointed to a few snickering disciples of the South China Sea Cliff not far away, and said angrily to Tianyue.
Tianyue didn't care about digging her nostrils: "If you want to laugh, let them laugh." Besides, I'm not for you, there is a rival in love, don't you see it? If you don't stay here for a few more days, you'll just watch Ying'er run away with someone else. As he spoke, he secretly pointed at Chu Dui.
Gu Shi also said: "I am also in favor of staying, at least I must wait for the master and them to lose their anger before going back." I'd also like to know why the Templars and youkai came together. ”
There was no way to take them, so Zhuo Lingyu had no choice but to say, "Okay, okay, you all have a point." ”
"What are you doing in a daze? Go find Ying'er. Tianyue pushed behind him.
Zhuo Lingyu turned back to him and gave him a vicious look, then walked to Ying'er's side, and soon the two talked in a low voice. Gu Shi and Tianyue stopped Chu Duan, who was about to leave.
"Hello this brother, I am Gu Shi of the Heavenly Master Sect, this is the Tianyue of the Kunlun Sect. Just now we saw that you connected the spells in our sect, may I ask which sect you are a disciple? Where do spells come from? Gu Shi said politely.
"My name is Chu Duan." Chu Duan nodded to the two: "I'm not from any faction, my spell was taught by my parents and elders, and they didn't tell me which sect's spell it was." ”
Strange glances at each other, Gu Shi and Tianyue were surprised. Family? I haven't heard of any master in the magic world who has such a family education, but looking at Chu Duan's appearance doesn't look like a lie.
"That's... Can you tell me where your home is? Cush said tentatively.
As soon as the words came out, Chu Duan's eyes were already gloomy, and he waved his hand as if he didn't want to say more, he turned around and left without saying a word, as if this question aroused his great sadness.
"What's going on with this guy? Hey..."Tianyue saw that Chu Duan didn't answer, so she wanted to stop him.
"Wait, there's something wrong with him, let's inquire slowly later." Cush stopped him.
Although Tianyue was unwilling, she could only nod, and the two of them walked towards the South China Sea Cliff Sect.
The previous worries finally came true, and Annie, who took John to the South Sea Cliff, was captured by the other party, but fortunately, John was finally sent to the Valley of the Living. And all this, Zhang Lie, who was far away in the Qinling Mountains, knew nothing...
