The Day of Repayment: Puppet Chapter

"Night Raven, why are you here, aren't you seriously injured...... This is...... Winter Palace, how could I be here, ...... that night"

Ye Bei struggled to sit up, although the medicine had taken effect, but the long-term bed bed still made him feel a headache, his body was like rust, he didn't know what happened that night, he only remembered the falling leaf song and the unexpected knife, and then ...... And he awoke.

"Your Majesty, no, Yebei, the king of the Northern Ye Kingdom, I have a few questions for the night crow. ”

Night Crow's tone was no longer the usual respect and humility, and when he stood in front of Ye Bei with his sword in hand, he was no longer the leader of the Iron Guard, let alone the sword dancer who was named a knight, but the surviving child of the slaughter village back then.

"What do you want to ask?"

Ye Bei didn't show any panic about the night crow's disrespect and the fact that he was standing in front of him with a sword, he stood up and stretched his muscles, as if he didn't realize his situation at all, he was not a natural successor to the throne, he hadn't experienced any scenes, not to mention, he was already a soul warrior.

Night Raven was silent for a moment and said, "Remember Rain Village, a small village with less than a hundred people on the border of the Thundering Country. ”

"Rain Village...... I don't remember, I still have a little impression of the Thundering Country, it's pitiful, there are only thirteen small city-states in total, plus scattered villages, and there was almost no much resistance during the expedition, so you're here to take revenge?"

Ye Bei recalled, his tone was still relaxed, like chatting with an old friend, the dignity and calmness that an emperor should have were vividly expressed in Ye Bei, or rather, he didn't care about the killing intent in the eyes of the night crow at all.

"Thundering ** is not strong, the national strength is weak, your army is countless times better than them, whether it is occupied or plundered, it can't stop you, but why do you want to slaughter the village and slaughter the city? We can't even eat, why do we want to kill them all?"

Night Crow's hand holding the sword trembled slightly, he tried to calm his tone, restrained the killing intent in his heart, he was no longer the child who ran away from the wilderness, he was not even afraid of death, how could he be afraid of the old man in front of him who was more than half a hundred years old.

"Let me tell you three things, first, the army that went abroad at that time did not belong directly to me, but the private armies of various families, second, most of these soldiers had no discipline at all, and even the number of criminals was full, and third, at that time, the civil war had just ended, and the treasury was empty, and there was not enough pay and food, so I had to slaughter the city, one was to deter, and the other was to save food, have you ever eaten human flesh? The army did not have enough food, and it had reached the point of eating dead human flesh, in this case, what would you do instead?"

Ye Bei said it was already very euphemistic, he knew very well what war was like, slaughtering cities and looting was just a common thing, if he didn't do this, it was the army under his command that would starve to death, and it would last long to feed the war with war, if he was the benevolence of Yebei women, how could he ascend to the throne, and how could Beiye Kingdom be one of the three major empires?

"You mean we deserve to die, do you?"

"Do you know why there is war in this world? Because there are many problems that cannot be solved by peaceful means, war does kill people and bring destruction, but in the same way, it can also wash away the dirty muddy water, promote history and change, you have experienced the cruelty of war, but have you seen that the peace of the North Ye Kingdom for more than ten years after the war is not something that can be done by words, and it is not only royal power that is built on blood and corpses, but also joy and happiness. ”

Ye Bei paused for a moment, and his expression gradually became solemn, "No one is born to die, the circumstances are different, even if I do it all over again, I will still choose to slaughter the city, this is not a question of right or wrong, but I have to do it, don't use this childish reason to refute me, war has always been cruel and terrifying, but it is also inevitable, this is a norm, even if it is hundreds of millions of years later, it is still so." ”

"Yes, you are the monarch, and I, the Night Raven, am just a survivor who survives, as you said, you and I are in different circumstances and have different philosophies, since this is your answer, you must be ready to bear the consequences. ”

Night Raven suddenly laughed, so this is the answer?

Joy and well-being?

Why is the joy and happiness of your northern Ye Kingdom based on the destruction of my family?

"You could have killed me directly and left calmly, but you chose to wake me up, in fact, you already understood why I slaughtered the city in the first place, but you didn't want to agree with my approach, you want to see me panic, want to see me beg you to spare your life? Hahahaha, I'm a little older Ye Bei, but I'm not incompetent to that point, come on, give you this opportunity, let me see how far your so-called hatred has made you grow. ”

Ye Bei didn't summon the guards, nor did he run away, he turned around and pulled out a long sword from the scabbard hanging on the wall, and a large area of rust covered the sword body, as if it would break with a slight wave, not at all like a sword that a king should have.

The night crow's hand holding the sword relaxed, his expression returned to calm, adjusting his breathing, the Yalan Lei steel sword had turned blood red at some point, and the moment Ye Bei blinked, he took out the sword!

It's time to put an end to this.

The figures of the two disappeared in place at the same time, the blades intersected, and before they could make a sound, the furious energy had destroyed everything around them, as if they had been swept by a storm, and the place was in shambles.

How many moves does it take to fight to the death?

If it were normal times, the night crow would not fight like this, and he would leave some room for maneuver when he shot, but this time he didn't plan to leave alive, and his shot was the strongest martial art, and he would be divided into life and death in an instant, he died or Ye Bei died.

The Yalan Lei Steel Sword cut off the rusty sword effortlessly, almost touching Ye Bei's neck, but the night crow's pupils had lost their color, and Ye Bei's left hand was forever hidden under the sleeve, holding a short dagger at the moment, and it penetrated the jaw of the night crow from bottom to top, stabbing out from the top of the head, the Yalan Lei steel sword fell to the ground weakly, and the blood stained Ye Bei's hand red like a stream of dagger, and in a blink of an eye, a puddle of red accumulated on the ground.

It was close at hand, and he didn't seem to be willing to dodge anymore, even if he and Ye Bei died together, but the sword was half a point slower after all.

"How can the sword shown in front of people be faster than the dagger in the sleeve, I don't understand such a simple truth, you can't afford to be a sword dancer, let alone this Aran Lei steel sword, your stupidity is simply beyond my expectations. ”

Ye Bei is a monarch who is good at killing, he knows too well the mentality of the night crow, killing people should be unscrupulous, and when he dies, there is nothing, at the beginning of his ascension to the throne, he doesn't know how many assassinations he has faced, among which there are many masters of soul transformation and spiritual martial arts, it is not a fluke that he can survive until now.

Pulling out the dagger, warm blood splashed on Ye Bei's expressionless face.

The night crow, who was obviously dead, still firmly clasped his left hand on Ye Bei's shoulder, he tried his best, his fingers grabbed through the muscles, and the bones were stuck, and the severe pain still failed to move Ye Bei, and he deserved to be bitten by an insect.

But in the next second, Ye Bei's complexion changed, and there was a touch of surprise in his eyes, as well as a slight panic.

The face of the night crow in front of him instantly became dry and shriveled, the originally tall body gradually became rickety, the red hair dried up and turned to ash, and the surging spiritual power gathered in his spiritual core, cracks all over it, becoming more and more unstable.

Damn it!

Ye Bei only had time to flash a thought in his mind, he kicked the night crow in the chest, but it was too late, the terrifying spiritual power exploded, the night crow's body instantly turned into blood and was evaporated, and Ye Bei, who was close at hand, was not spared, and the spiritual power shield that was transported in a hurry could not resist it at all, and it shattered in an instant.

The skin continued to melt and peel off in the terrifying spiritual power, Ye Bei's right hand was only a skeleton in a blink of an eye, and the walls and ground were like ice and snow that had fallen into magma, disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye, no, this was not disappearing, but was completely decomposed, just like the bones in his right hand, it turned into a fine powder and kept dispersing.

"Original...... That's your answer......"

The spirit core is the foundation of the spirit warrior, and the spirit core of the soul spirit martial arts is stored with terrifying spiritual power, if it explodes at one time, it is definitely not inferior to the power of the ninth order and even the forbidden spell, but not everyone can detonate their own spirit core, which requires the help of a first-order spell spirit explosion, but it is also listed as one of the forbidden spells by the council, and it is never allowed to appear in any form.

The spirit explosion is different from other spells, it does not need a spirit array or chanting to release, its original name is spirit change, the purpose is to improve the human race is more and more unsuitable for the cultivation of the spirit of the physique, but later it was discovered that this spell is difficult to control, will affect the stability of the spirit core, at least the spiritual power will collapse, or the heavy will detonate the spirit core.

It is only the first order, because it is very easy to master, and it is listed as a forbidden art, because the spirit explosion once caused unimaginable disasters, and Atheris, who was nicknamed the country of spiritual decline, evaporated overnight, leaving only scorched earth and deep pits everywhere, and the culprit was the spirit explosion, and since then, this spell that is only the first order has won the title of forbidden spell.

Because it is low-level, it can burst out with great power, so some extremist organizations or churches have asked their followers to learn the spirit explosion for some purposes, as a deterrent and weapon, no matter how the Star and Moon Council and other countries explicitly prohibit it, it is difficult to completely eliminate the spread of the spirit explosion spell.

The terrifying spiritual power completely exploded, and the dazzling white light spread extremely fast, like a vortex that devoured everything, and this room disappeared directly, but it still had no intention of stopping, but it became bigger and bigger.

Die?

The night crow doesn't care, this is the answer he gave, he was ready to die before he came, although the sword was slow, but if he wanted to detonate his spirit core before he died, he could still do it, the joy built on suffering, would eventually end with blood and corpses, and today was the day to pay back!
