Chapter 501: Secretly Forming an Alliance
Before the Great Elder could speak, two geyrs wearing iron armor and bronze helmets walked from the depths of the cave. ()
The two iron-armored spirits knelt on one knee, their movements neat and coherent, and they saluted respectfully.
The Great Elder didn't turn around, still facing Su Ji, and asked the two wandering spirits behind him:
"How's it going?"
The two iron-armored spirits glanced at each other, and the one on the left replied, "Great Elder, Emperor Dongyue has rectified the Yin soldiers and plans to start a war on a certain day. ““
The one on the right immediately reported: "It's the same over there in Xudu." King Yamamara hoped that the Great Elder would be able to help when the time came. ”
The Great Elder turned his back to the two iron-armored spirits and said in a low voice, "The judges of the Xudu are thoughtful, and the Emperor Dongyue is even more cunning. Be careful not to show your feet......"
Having said that, Su Ji realized that these two iron-armored spirits were the fine works sent by the Great Elder to Xudu and Jiuquan respectively.
The geist on the right presented a wooden box and said, "King Yamara has ordered me to give this gift to the Great Elder. ”
The Great Elder waved his hand and said, "Let's put it down first, I have something important to do now." ”
The two iron-armored geists still couldn't kneel, and the geist on the right said, "Great Elder, this gift is very important to you. ”
The Great Elder sighed impatiently and said, "Got it. Stand down first, and don't make them suspicious ....... ”
Before he could finish speaking, the Great Elder suddenly stiffened, as if he had been stabbed by something, and he moved forward. Immediately after, the Great Elder's body twisted and deformed, and black gas suddenly erupted from the cracks in the helmet, as if a dying person was spitting out a mouthful of blood.
The two iron-armored wandering spirits watched coldly, only to see that the one on the left had an extra sharp copper nail in his hand, the appearance was as black as jade, emitting a faint light, and the tip was still bubbling black gas.
Guo Shengxiu stared directly at the copper nail, and said in amazement: "Soul Destroying Nail?"
In an instant, the surroundings fell silent.
Seeing Su Ji and Guo Shengxiu's shocked expressions, the iron-armored wandering soul on the left said coldly: "This is an order entrusted by the judge, asking me to use this soul destroying nail to make the Great Elder disappear forever." ”
The Great Elder's chest heaved faintly, as if he could hear a heavy breath. But he didn't breathe, for the geist wasn't breathing. The Great Elder was also a wandering spirit, and as for the heaving of his chest, it came from the rapid loss of black qi.
Su Ji didn't know exactly what that black qi was, but he could be sure that it was a black qi. At present, he had seen white and purple Qi, and the black Qi in front of him belonged to the Great Elder. Now the Black Qi that maintains life is passing wildly in the Great Elder's body.
The two iron-armored spirits looked at the Great Elder silently, as if they were waiting for the black qi in his body to completely drain away.
Before Su Ji understood the situation, he only watched quietly from the side, and did not intend to meddle in this matter.
Guo Shengxiu witnessed all this with his own eyes, and felt incredulous about the actions of these two wandering spirits, because these two wandering spirits were the most loyal henchmen of Great Elder Ping on weekdays.
After a while, the rise and fall of the Great Elder's chest stopped, and he collapsed to the ground weakly.
The iron-armored wandering spirit on the left watched the last wisp of black qi dissipate, and then slowly raised the wooden box and said to the fallen Great Elder, "This wooden box is this gift from King Yamamara, and he ordered me to put your helmet in it." ”
Guo Sheng shouted loudly: "Are you two crazy? What kind of evil did you fall into?"
The iron-armored wandering soul on the left said: "The Great Elder is stubborn and self-serving, unwilling to be manipulated by others, and in the end there is only a dead end. We tried to tell him many times, but he turned a deaf ear. No one wants to disappear, let alone be beaten to hell and suffer. We are also forced to helpless. ”
Another iron-armored wandering spirit chimed in: "The Great Elder refuses to surrender, and sooner or later it will fall into the hands of the Dongyue Emperor or the King of Yamalo. ”
Su Ji saw that these two ironclad wandering spirits were neither evil nor provoked, but chose to betray from the bottom of their hearts.
Guo Shengxiu clenched his fists and scolded angrily: "You two traitors!"
A geist leaned down to himself and tried to rip off the Great Elder's bronze armor, only to find that there was nothing in the bronze armor, just a pair of empty armor scattered on the ground.
The two iron-armored geist bodies were shocked, and they suddenly realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly said, "It's not good, let's go quickly!"
"Stop!" Guo Shengxiu took a step forward and blocked the way of the two wandering spirits.
One of the geists raised the Soul Destroyer Nail menacingly, threatening, "Get out of the way!" I don't want to touch you, don't force me to do it!. ”
Guo Shengxiu got closer and closer, bowed his head and said: "Actually, I can understand your thoughts to some extent, I just ask you to give me a death too." ”
The two geists were stunned and asked, "Do you want to die?"
Guo Shengxiu closed his eyes and said resolutely: "I'm already dead, let's do it." ”
The two geists looked at each other, and the one on the left said, "Well, we won't see each other again." ”
With that, the geist raised the Soul Destroying Nail and aimed it at Guo Shengxiu, and at the moment when he was stabbing out, the tip of the nail suddenly deviated from the direction and stabbed straight into the chest of another iron-armored geist.
With an exclamation, the Soul Destroyer Nail pierced into the gap in the Spirit Armor. The wandering spirit stared blankly at the companion who inexplicably attacked him, and said intermittently: "You ......"
Guo Shengxiu opened his eyes, and the soul loss he had expected did not happen to him.
"Hey, you said you would stab my ...... first"
The iron-armored geist took out the soul slayer nail in his companion's body, looked at his hand in surprise, and said in amazement: "I was going to stab you, but I don't know how to ...... it."
The words stopped abruptly, and the geist who spoke raised the brass nail and stabbed it straight into his throat. He hurriedly clenched the disobedient hand tightly, but the arm seemed to no longer belong to him.
Su Ji closed his eyes slightly, and saw that the illusion in this wandering soul body, and it was a very powerful illusion, which could be directly cast on the soul.
"I don't want to die yet!"
By the time these five words were finished, the Soul Slayer Nail had already pierced into the gap in the helmet.
At this time, the two ironclad spirits were both gone.
Su Ji turned his head to look and saw a yellow-robed figure walking out of the darkness.
Guo Shengxiu shouted excitedly, "Great Elder, I knew you were fine. ”
The Great Elder leaned over and ripped off the clothes of the two iron-armored wandering spirits, only to see that one was the Yaksha of the Western Mansion, and the other was the Yin Shuai of the Eastern Nine Springs.
Su Ji asked puzzledly: "Why did the Yin soldiers of Xudu and Jiuquan attack you at the same time? These two forces should be hostile to each other." ”
The Great Elder explained, "A long, long time ago, Emperor Dongyue and King Yamamara were ostensibly allied, but in fact they were secretly opposed. But now, they are ostensibly opposed, but in fact they are secretly allied. ”
"Secret alliances, what are alliances for?"
The Great Elder didn't answer directly, just raised his arm and pointed upward.
"God?"
Su Ji's face changed suddenly.
The Great Elder muttered, "Your time is running out, when you see Emperor Dongyue, you will know his ambitions." ”
Su Ji's eyes flowed, and he suddenly found that this great elder did not have the black qi just now, but a completely different feeling. Su Ji could basically be sure that the Great Elder in front of him and the Great Elder just now were not the same wandering spirit. Could it be that there is more than one lord of the Northern Region of Cold Springs, "Great Elder"?
At this time, the Great Elder waved his long sleeves and said. "Master Fox, I'll give you a ride. ”
Su Ji was just about to speak, when he suddenly felt a trance in his consciousness, and immediately closed his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a place of déjà vu, and the first thing that caught his eye was two towering pillars. Each of the two pillars is tethered to a spirit beast. Five-colored sacred cow and jade unicorn.
Tianqi Rensheng Palace.
Su Ji slowly raised his head and saw that the mansion of Emperor Dongyue was close at hand.
