The moonlight was like water, and with the deepening night, it enveloped the entire imperial capital little by little.

Skyware City turned from noise to silence, as if it was only in an instant.

Gao Chengchuan swayed the chair, the wood made a squeaky sound, he gently stroked the broken arm of his left hand with his right hand, and the picture of the day when Xiao Qianye's hand was cut off in his cloudy eyes kept recalling, and his pupils constricted into a point - those were two people, he was in Xiao Qianye's body, like a soul melting, he could see everything through him, but he clearly did not take the initiative to snatch control of that body, but it was more like a subtle peaceful coexistence.

He claimed to be from the Heavenly Realm, and he must also be a fellow practitioner and old friend of the Night King, since the Flying Heaven Project and the Ten Halls of Hades were both plots designed by the Heavenly Realm to destroy Feiyuan, why would that person go the opposite way and even stand on Xiao Qianye's side?

Gao Chengchuan narrowed his eyes meaningfully, and couldn't help but imagine that Fei Yuan did not have many records of the Heavenly Realm, only that it was twelve powerful humans who broke through all obstacles, bulldozed all obstacles, and finally became the masters of the sky, perhaps in order to maintain the sense of distance of "gods", the names and names of the twelve gods were not recorded in more detail.

After all, the twelve gods are still just human beings...... As long as you are human, you will have complex emotions, and it is not strange that there are conflicts between them.

Gao Chengchuan rubbed the wound, in fact, after many years of personal testing, his body's perception of pain was very weak, but at the same time that sword cut off his left hand, he obviously felt the deadliest pain in his life, as if that sword could really cut off a person's soul together.

There was another person in Xiao Qianye's body, he must have found something on his left arm, so he cut it off with a knife, and even burned it directly with spiritual arts.

Gao Chengchuan smiled slightly, he has always been a thoughtful person, how could he put all his chips together?

He sighed, picked up the fire fold he had placed at his hand and lit up the dimly lit room, his old eyes flickering in the lamplight, faintly cruel.

By the light of the fire, the murderous aura in the old man's eyes flashed, and the same dense needle eye appeared on his right arm, and the strange spell pattern was a little clear from the bottom of the skin, Gao Chengchuan secretly lucked, and hit the strength of his whole body at the wrist, only to see an earthworm-like thing winding down along the arm, until it crawled to the center of the spell pattern, and suddenly a black shadow rose.

"Politics. Gao Chengchuan exhaled, his eyes became more serious, staring at the black shadow, and lowered his voice, "What's the matter with Feng Siniang?

The black shadow shook for a moment, and a cold voice came out: "The dark sandalwood order held by Siniang was stolen by the Xiao Pavilion Master, maybe the two had a conflict over this matter, Siniang was killed near Tianzheng Mansion, the specific situation ...... The subordinates have not yet investigated clearly. ”

"Oh?" Gao Chengchuan dragged his tone, obviously not quite convinced, an unexpected light flashed in his eyes, he was silent for a long time, and said: "Zheng, Pavilion Master Xiao won't kill Feng Siniang, you are lying to me." ”

"The subordinates don't dare. The black shadow answered calmly, unfazed, "Feng Siniang was indeed killed near the Tianzheng Mansion, and the Governor should know as long as he inquired a little, and his subordinates did not hide it in the slightest." ”

Gao Chengchuan pursed his lips, since Mingxi deliberately isolated him, the Governor's Mansion has been monitored by mysterious spells layer by layer, in order to prevent the regeneration of branches, he originally planned to recuperate first in peace and stability, and when the soul melt is successful, he can get rid of this old and battered body and make a comeback, but he never expected that at this juncture, the leader Feng Siniang on the bright side of the dark side was actually assassinated?

Years of mediating in the complex political arena of keen intuition made him feel uneasy and irritable, this matter is very strange, is it for the Tianzheng Mansion, or for him Gao Chengchuan?

In an instant, countless possibilities flashed through his mind, Gao Chengchuan's spirit was a little trance-like, and he muttered: "Zheng, you said that Feng Siniang is dead, will Pavilion Master Xiao count this account on my head?"

"Huh?" the voice on the other side of the shadow hesitated visibly and said in a low voice, "I don't know. ”

"I don't know?" Gao Chengchuan snorted coldly, but there was a faint disappointment in his eyes, and a wry smile floated, and he understood a little, "Zheng, you are a smart person, otherwise I would not have given you the position of the leader of the dark department with peace of mind, not to mention whether the Xiao Pavilion Lord and the Feng family have any feelings, if he already knew that Siniang was a person from the dark department, and the sandalwood that belonged to the dark department was lost, and she was killed on the back foot, and if such a coincidence changed, anyone would think it was my order, right?"

The black shadow was silent, and through the sight of the puppet insect, Ah Zheng suddenly noticed that Governor Gao's eyes were sharp, and even smiled proudly: "I have lost my position, what I have to do at this time is to avoid its edge, but Siniang was killed, and the murderer pointed directly at the shadows, Zheng, do you think this is really a coincidence?"

Ah Zheng's face was gloomy, obviously hiding in a dark corner, but his eyes were shining brightly, there was a trace of light viciousness at the corner of his mouth, but his tone was still as steady as Mount Tai: "As long as Pavilion Master Xiao thinks it's your order, then it must be your order, right?"

"Heh......" Gao Chengchuan continued to sneer, obviously separated by a long distance, the conversation between the two suddenly became-for-tat, "Zheng, what do you want to do?"

The people in the darkness raised their eyes to look not far away, the moonlight was faintly sprinkled, quietly shrouded in the excessively quiet Governor's Palace, during this time, the periphery of the Governor's Mansion was always lit with dark green lanterns, at first glance, it looked like a ghost fire in the night, in fact, it was a kind of magic from the East Underworld, the purpose was to supervise Gao Chengchuan's every move in the mansion, but tonight, as if he was deliberately waiting for someone, the guards stationed there extinguished all the lanterns, and even the door was still open.

There are translucent green butterflies fluttering under the eaves, like a silent hidden observer in the shadows.

After not getting a response for a long time, Gao Chengchuan finally couldn't hold back and urged: "Zheng, do you also want to fall into the well and rob while the fire is hot?" 600

"Oh?" Ah Zheng smiled slightly, such a statement made him a little helpless, he fell into the hands of Gao Chengchuan since he was a child, he was cramped and skinned, cut bones and cut flesh, countless times on the verge of death, and countless times was pulled back from hell, and then continued to be pushed back to hell, so he couldn't see any hope over and over again, he was just a lowly alien for humans, but he betrayed the aliens in order to survive, he had long been a person with no way back and no future, and he was even accused by Gao Chengchuan of "falling into the well and robbing while the fire was fired"?

It was a nightmare that he couldn't wake up from, and as long as Gao Chengchuan was alive, he would never be able to break free from this nightmare.

"Haha...... Hahaha. Finally couldn't help laughing, Ah Zheng's eyes glowed with a cold light, and his tone was like a cold cave, "How many lives does Governor Gao have in his hands? Not only the melting souls planted in his heart, but also the puppet insects hidden in various parts of his body, for so many years, the adults have not hesitated to test the medicine themselves, in order to be able to firmly pinch these lives in their own hands, right?"

Gao Chengchuan didn't say a word, and there was a chill in his heart, feeling that this familiar henchman was unfamiliar in an instant.

"Let me do the math carefully, the object of the soul melt is Mu Xizhao, and since the day you picked him up, you have been planning to make him your new 'container', right? Governor Gao, I really admire you sometimes, you are clearly using him, but anyone with eyes can see that it is Sima Zhao's heart, everyone knows it! But what about him? He is really dead to you!"

Ah Zheng couldn't help but shake his head, he still felt incomprehensible to this day, and raised his hand to press his chest: "And those puppet worms, not only me, but also the people in charge of the dark base in the four realms, how vicious and cruel are you to keep this kind of thing in your body?"

Gao Chengchuan looked awe-inspiring and blurted out: "Since you know that you have a puppet worm on your body, aren't you afraid that I will strangle it now and drag you to hell together?"

"To hell...... Yes, to hell. Ah Zheng repeated in a low voice, I don't know what I remembered, and suddenly smiled gently, "Siniang said, I will wait for you in hell, and I will ...... Wait for me. ”

"Siniang really killed you?"

"Yes and no. Ah Zheng's eyes slowly became solemn, and in that bottomless gaze, he whispered, "Maybe it should be said that she is willing to be killed by me, do you know why?"

"She wants to blame me!" Gao Chengchuan was furious, sure enough, no wonder he felt that there was something else wrong with this matter early on, it turned out to be Feng Siniang and Ah Zheng who tried to frame him!

"Blame?" Ah Zheng's mouth hooked up a bleak smile, and he shook his head, "Don't say it so ugly, why did Feng Siniang join the dark department, and how did she come over all these years, Governor Gao, you know better than anyone else in your heart, what if she just wants to borrow a knife to kill people, don't you deserve to die?"

"Zheng, are you tired of being alive too?"

"I'm tired of it. Ah Zheng took the words indifferently, and looked up at the end of the road, his eyes were like knives, even if he was far away, he still recognized the person who strode over, the familiar silver-black capable military uniform, holding a sword spirit overflowing with white light, it was the current military pavilion master Xiao Qianye.

Gao Chengchuan clenched his fists, and a strange insect drilled out of the center of the black shadow, he pinched the puppet worm with his fingers, and said sharply: "I only need to strangle this puppet worm, and I can let you go to reunite with Siniang." ”

"Pinch if you want. Ah Zheng sighed and reminded, "Anyway, if I die, you won't be able to contact the other people in the four realms, and the only bargaining chip to contain Your Majesty will be useless, I want to see how Your Majesty will deal with you." ”

"You!" Gao Chengchuan gasped, his eyes became nervous and trembling - after his left arm was cut off, he could no longer directly contact the shadows of the four realms through the previous spells, and although the puppet worm could control life and death, if he really wanted to talk to those people, he had to be within a certain distance, and now he could only pass through the secret department of Ah Zheng, who was still in the imperial capital, if this person rebelled at this time, then he was really isolated and would definitely die!

"What's more......" Ah Zheng's voice suddenly became frivolous, with a bit of playfulness, and said with interest, "What's more, in addition to Feng Siniang, there is another person who has also been killed, Lord Governor, why don't you go out and go around the courtyard now, maybe you can see acquaintances!"

Gao Chengchuan's face changed violently, and he suddenly stood up and rushed out of the door without thinking, the moon hung high in the night sky, and the silver light was coldly sprinkled in the backyard, and the cold wind in the early winter did not penetrate the bones, but it made Gao Chengchuan freeze in place like an ice cave.

A skull hung from a tall ginkgo tree in the backyard, blood still dripping from the severed neck.

"Taishou Gong......" Gao Chengchuan muttered three words, his skull's eyes were wide open, and his gaze was not even slackened, staring at himself as if he was still conscious.

Gao Chengchuan's back was cold, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back, and his breathing began to be short.

He had seen countless cruel scenes in his life, and his men had been stained with the blood of countless people, but at this moment, he felt unprecedented fear at a familiar head.

The black shadow let out a startling chuckle and reminded in disgust, "Before strangling that puppet worm, Governor Gao should greet your guests first." ”

Before the words fell, the wall was slashed into ruins with a sword, and in the dust, a familiar figure walked towards him step by step with firm steps.

The cold wind blew out of thin air, and the corners of the skull on the ginkgo tree rose to the top of the mouth, hooking a vicious smile that had succeeded in his scheme.
