"If you don't have to, I don't want you to take action."
Ye Xishui looked at Long Xiaoyao and said.
But after saying these words, Ye Xishui became silent instead.
She lowered her eyes, and the expression on her face hidden under the cloak was unclear.
After a long while, Ye Xishui sighed softly, with a sense of relief that he had let go of something. "Forget it - no matter how wrong you were back then, you spent more than a hundred years accompanying me."
"This friendship is far inferior to that of Mu En or that old ghost Zhongli. Only you are the one who loves me the most.
"For so many years, you have actually been struggling with pain in your heart."
"You know, I have always wanted to tell you that I forgive you and no longer hate you."
"But I just won't say it because I'm afraid that once I tell you, you will leave me."
"At that time, there was no one trustworthy around me anymore."
Long Xiaoyao The pain in his eyes disappeared, replaced by faint tears.
He has lived for more than a hundred years, experienced countless lives and deaths, and has been used to the changes in the world, but at this moment, in front of Ye Xishui, his eyes were red like the boy who had been by her side all those years ago.
Ye Xishui leaned against him gently, letting herself nestle in his arms.
Her body is very light, as light as a dead leaf that can be blown away by the wind at any time.
"Now, I forgive you."
"You no longer have to be depressed by that incident."
"After all these years, you have paid so much for me, and you don't owe me anything anymore."
"Now, you can leave with peace of mind and do what you want to do."
"There is no need to let my tie affect you anymore. Just go."
"This way, you don't need to see me kill that young man Lu Ren----"
Long Xiaoyao seemed to understand something, and suddenly said, "The reason why you told me this is because you already have a bad premonition about this operation, right?"
Ye Xishui's body was shocked.
Long Xiaoyao finally saw through her.
"You thought you were going to die, so you told me that you wanted to drive me away?" Long Xiaoyao chuckled, and there was an indescribable bitterness in that laughter.
"After all, I can't hide it from you."
Ye Xishui sighed.
When they reach the Tsukumo level of cultivation, many times, intuition is what they believe in the most.
During this operation, Ye Xishui could feel that every time she got close to that yard, she felt uncomfortable all over.
That feeling is like a warning from deep within the soul.
Once you get close to the courtyard, Ye Xishui seems to have walked into a burial ground, and every step is stepping into the abyss.
At first, she was not convinced. She thought that a young man like Lu Ren could pose any threat to her.
But when she secretly took a look at the situation in the yard, she was shocked.
In that courtyard, there are the auras of three top powerhouses.
Even if Lu Ren was in seclusion at the time, Ye Xishui had absolutely no confidence that he would be able to break in.
So, she ran away.
I ran back to Holy Spirit Cult's headquarters and thought about this situation.
But as I thought about it, Ye Xishui felt relieved.
Because she came to a conclusion.
If you do anything to Lu Ren, she will die.
This is a kind of perception of destiny in Mei Mei that can only be touched after reaching Limit Douluo Level.
And now, this feeling still exists!
Long Xiaoyao looked at Ye Xishui in his arms, and a hundred years seemed to flash before his eyes.
The first meeting when we were young, the breakup after misunderstanding, the secret relationship for hundreds of years, the side by side and confrontation again and again.
All the entanglement of love and hate finally turned into a heavy sigh.
"I'm not leaving."
Long Xiaoyao raised his hand and gently held Ye Xishui's shoulder.
His palms covered her dark red cloak, and he could feel her shoulders trembling slightly.
This Death God Douluo, which had dominated the mainland for nearly two hundred years, was like a dead leaf rustling in the wind in his arms.
"Even if the road you want to take is wrong, even if it is the road to hell, I will walk with you."
"Everything else is not important." Long Xiaoyao paused, looking down at Ye Xishui's eyes hidden behind the mist of the cloak.
"If this trip really determines that you will die——then, I will accompany you to die."
"In the future era, there is no place for old people like us. From now on, it must be the era of that young man Lu Ren."
Ye Xishui trembled all over and raised his head suddenly.
In his eyes, for the first time, all the sharpness and coldness disappeared, and there was a tiny glimmer of water.
She opened her mouth to say something, but in the end she just bit her lower lip and buried her head deeply in his arms, her shoulders shaking slightly.
There was a faint smell of pine on his clothes, which was the smell that he had contracted when he lived alone in the depths of the forest for many years. She had smelled it for more than a hundred years, but she had never felt as at ease as she did now.
Death God Douluo, who has dominated this continent for nearly two hundred years and has made countless people frightened by the news, actually showed her vulnerability for a moment like an ordinary woman.
But it was only for a moment.
The next moment, she straightened up, tightened her dark red cloak again, and her eyes were once again filled with cold murderous intent.
The watery light was still swirling in her eyes, but her voice had returned to its usual coldness.
"Okay, let's kill Lu Ren together."
"If we are still alive, we will walk together on the road ahead."
Zhongli Wu on the side lowered his eyes to hide the emotions in his eyes.
He had long known what Long Xiaoyao was thinking about his mother. Not only was he not surprised when he saw this, he was actually relieved.
With Uncle Long, Limit Douluo taking action, and his mother, Lu Ren would definitely die no matter how many trump cards he had hidden.
After all, these are two big Limit Douluo.
Is there anything on this continent that the two of them can't accomplish together?
Even when facing Beast God Di Tian, who is known as the strongest Douluo Continent in the legend, you must not be afraid at all with the courage of your mother and Uncle Long, right?
He had even begun to picture Lu Ren being killed by two Limit Douluo in his mind.
The young man who rejected him in public in the palace, the madman who made him lose face in front of Xu Tianran, will finally pay the price today.
Only Zhang Peng stood at the end of the team, his face getting heavier and heavier.
The two Limit Douluo teamed up, which was not good news for him.
He clenched his fists, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his palms.
Lu Ren He knows the situation best. There is no way this little brother can stop the attack of these two!
Zhang Peng gritted his teeth and cheered himself up in his heart. "If it really doesn't work, I will risk my life to let my little brother escape!"
Mingdu's evacuation operation is almost complete.
Xu Tianran's evacuation order was issued extremely hastily, but its execution efficiency was surprisingly high.
In a short period of time, the entire capital city completed an unprecedented evacuation.
Under the guidance of the army and city defense Soul Engineer, a large number of people moved to temporary resettlement sites outside the city along pre-planned routes.
The streets were strewn with debris that had not been cleaned up in time during the evacuation. Several tables and stools from breakfast stalls that had not been put away lay crookedly on the roadside. The iron pot was still steaming, but the owner had disappeared.
Several main roads in the core area of Mingdu have been blocked by the city defense army. The huge soul-guided defense cover slowly rises, interweaving into a light blue light curtain in Sky Manipulation, covering Spirit Pagoda Headquarters and the surrounding area for several miles, and at the same time isolating the area that is about to become a battlefield from the peripheral evacuation channels.
This capital city, where countless Thousand-Years stand, has never been so quiet, so quiet that it makes people feel panicked.
Although the people were very dissatisfied and did not understand why they were suddenly asked to evacuate, according to the news claimed by Xu Tianran, an unprecedented earthquake was about to occur in Mingdu.
At this moment of life and death, when the people heard that a major earthquake was coming, they really wished they had more legs and fled Mingdu quickly.
Outside the yard, the last group of Spirit Pagoda members also completed the evacuation under the organization of Nana.
Those children were sent away first, but Nana herself did not leave. She stood at the gate of the courtyard, looking at the long street leading to the center of the city, her long hair fluttering gently in the morning breeze.
Wuyun stood by her side, looking extremely heavy.
"Now you have a chance to betray us." Nana looked at Wuyun and said in a very soft voice, "The opposite side is your old club. This time two Limit Douluo came to lead a team to attack us. You still have time to go back."
Wuyun was startled for a moment, then shook his head.
The morning light fell on his old face, illuminating the wrinkles carved by the years particularly clearly.
"Why should I rebel? I have never felt happy staying in Holy Spirit Cult."
--
"At least, I get the respect I deserve here. Even though this respect comes too late, I still have a chance." Wuyun smiled. The smile was very light, but it was more real than all his expressions in the past decades put together.
"Aren't you afraid of death?" Ji Juechen behind him couldn't help but speak.
He was sitting on the corridor pillar with Silver-White Long Sword in front of his knees, and his tone was very calm.
"After all, you were forced to join us just to survive."
"----I am afraid of death, but I am even more afraid that Spirit Pagoda finally built it, but was destroyed by Holy Spirit Cult."
Wuyun looked a little sad.
"This Spirit Pagoda is probably the hope of all Evil Soul Master and Dark Martial Soul Master in the history of the Douluo Continent in the future. If it is destroyed like this, I will be very unwilling to do so."
"Let me also contribute, let me do my best to help you."
"If I just run away, I'm afraid I will never forgive myself in the rest of my life." Wuyun showed a bitter smile.
In the past five months, he has seen everyone's efforts, but Wuyun never thought that anyone would be kind to those homeless Dark Attribute Martial Soul and those who own Evil Martial Soul.
From those people, Wuyun saw his former self.
It was like he had been caught in the rain before, and now he wanted to hold up an umbrella to protect others from the wind and rain.
At this moment, the eyes of others looking at Wuyun changed.
Originally, in their hearts, Wuyun was a coward, after all, he only agreed to join Spirit Pagoda under the threat of death from Lu Ren.
But in just about five months, Wuyun can change so much.
This really impressed them.
"It's time for me to change my image of you and never call you a coward again." Ice Empress, who was standing at the front, turned around and glanced at Wuyun.
A hint of approval flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"It seems that Lu Ren's idea is right. You can't underestimate anyone."
Wuyun The corners of his mouth twitched and he swallowed what he wanted to say.
He originally wanted to say that he was actually quite afraid of death, and he still had the idea of retreating in his mind, but after thinking about it, he decided not to ruin the atmosphere.
"Master Ice Empress, over there Mu En----" Nana said in a low voice.
Her fingers twisted the corners of her clothes unconsciously.
"Mu En, there will be people over there to stop it." Ice Empress turned around and looked beyond the courtyard wall to the gray Sky Manipulation outside the Mingdu city.
"I contacted Lu Ren through Soul Spirit Contract, and Lu Ren said that he had made arrangements before the retreat."
"This guy, I always feel that he has a lot of information. It would be better to say that he really has the intelligence of the entire continent now?"
"Since the master has made arrangements in advance, that's fine." Hearing this, Nana breathed a sigh of relief.
But soon, she couldn't help but say, "But Holy Spirit Cult here----"
"Let's delay for a while, Lu Ren is about to leave seclusion." Ice Empress looked back at the closed door and said in a deep voice.
Hearing that the war was about to break out, Ye Guyi looked nervous.
Her palms were already slightly sweaty.
"Angel child, you are also crucial in this battle. You already have Martial Soul Avatar, and you will definitely be able to influence Evil Soul Master to a certain extent. No matter how big the gap in cultivation is, you cannot avoid attribute restraint." Ice Empress looked at Ye Guyi and gave her encouragement.
"Don't be afraid, just hide in the back and open the field, we will protect you."
Ye Guyi took a deep breath, then nodded vigorously, the tension in his eyes was replaced by determination.
"Let us fight side by side!"
"Okay!!!"
Everyone responded in unison, and the sound echoed in the courtyard.
When everyone's morale was high, the pitch-black Wuyun on the horizon in the distance was bearing a cold murderous intent and was pressing towards us.
Dozens of black-robed figures were flying in the sky, led by Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao.
The breaths of the two Limit Douluo overlapped together, causing the energy between heaven and earth to tremble slightly.
Ye Xishui's dark red cloak rustled in the wind, and Long Xiaoyao followed her silently.
Zhongli Wu followed half a step behind them, his eyes full of murderous intent.
Feng Ling followed him closely, while Zhang Peng fell at the end of the team. He deliberately flew slower to try to put as much distance as possible from the others.
The hand hidden in the sleeve has quietly crushed a Communication Soul Tool.
That was the emergency contact device Lu Ren left for him. As long as he crushed it, Lu Ren could receive the signal.
Although he didn't know if Lu Ren could be received in retreat, this was the only thing he could do.
Ice Empress raised his head and looked up at the sky, with a cold arc at the corner of his mouth. "Okay, two Tsukumos, one Level 98, two ninety-sevens, and a group of minions are left, adding up to a total of more than twenty."
"Is this what you have left now Holy Spirit Cult?"
"It's so miserable. There are only so many people left in such a huge Holy Spirit Cult?"
Zhongli Wu's face instantly darkened, and the veins on his forehead twitched slightly.
What Ice Empress said is true.
During the heyday of Holy Spirit Cult, there were all Eight Great Elderss, Offering Hall twelve Titled Douluos, and countless Soul Saint Soul Douluo-level believers all over the mainland.
But what about now?
There are only so many people left in the huge Holy Spirit Cult, and Offering Hall was beaten down to only Long Xiaoyao and Zhang Peng.
All this is thanks to Lu Ren.
And now, this woman standing in the yard actually has the nerve to mock them in public?
Zhongli Wu took a step forward from behind Ye Xishui, staring at Ice Empress: "You are just a dog of Lu Ren, do you deserve to bark in front of me?"
"Dog?" Ice Empress raised his eyebrows. Instead of getting angry, his smile became even brighter.
She slowly stepped forward and took off, landing not far in front of the Holy Spirit Cult team. Her posture was as arrogant as it was. "Did you make a mistake? I am not Lu Ren's dog, I am his Soul Spirit. Soul Spirit, do you understand?"
"Equal contract, two-way choice. If one day I no longer want to hang out with him, I can leave at any time."
"On the other hand, you Holy Spirit Cult people are chased like street rats by the righteous people, and are despised by the world like a puddle of mud. You can only huddle together for warmth and hide in a dark corner to survive."
"You are the real lost dogs, a group of wretches who have been abandoned by the entire continent."
"You!" Black mist surged around Zhongli Wu, and Level 98 Super Douluo's pressure exploded without reservation.
The tiles under his feet were shattered by the Soul Power he spilled out.
"Xiao Wu, step back."
Ye Xishui raised his hand to stop Zhongli Wu.
Her voice was not high, but it carried a kind of majesty that could not be violated. "You will lose your own face by using your words with a Soul Spirit."
"Today we are here to kill Lu Ren, not to quarrel with his Soul Spirit."
When Ye Xishui said this, his eyes were also observing Ice Empress.
She searched in her memory, Douluo Continent. When did such a number one person appear?
And judging from the appearance, Ice Empress is simply too young, and she still looks like a lolita, so she doesn't look big at all.
But the looming aura of extreme cold, the aura that allowed her to talk and laugh freely while standing in front of the two Limit Douluo, proved that she could never be an ordinary Soul Spirit.
"Are you----Ferocious Beast?"
Ye Xishui seems to have finally come to a conclusion.
The moment she finished speaking, the pupils of Long Xiaoyao behind her shrank slightly.
Lu Ren is really capable, he can actually let a Ferocious Beast act as Soul Spirit for him!
One of the scents Ye Xishui felt outside the yard that day was related to her!
In other words, there are two strong men similar to this woman around Lu Ren.
"Not bad, humans can actually recognize the true identity of this emperor." Ice Empress said with a smile, crossed his arms and looked at Ye Xishui with interest.
She looked relaxed on the surface, but she was making rapid calculations in her heart.
There are two Limit Douluo and one Level 98. She can never beat them by herself.
Snow Empress has also had half of her origin sealed. The combat power she can exert now is about Level 98, which can help her share some of the pressure, but it is also limited.
As for Mahoraga and Kurourushi, it's okay to deal with Super Douluo, but forget it against Limit Douluo, especially yourself, how can you have the time to protect Mahoraga and let it adapt?
