"What have you done?"
"Let me think about it..."
Lu Yuan pinched his chin and looked like he was thinking.
But anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is not thinking, but deliberately titillating, and every move is full of bad taste.
This Soul Palace envoy was thrown into Nao Nao.
But when Lu Yuan looked over and pulled out a slender red thread again, the Soul Palace envoy politely shut his mouth.
"How can I explain to you what this is..."
Lu Yuan frowned and whispered to himself.
Then, he pulled hard...
An invisible force surged.
The red thread was immediately torn off.
Another figure disappeared.
This time, there was not even a scream.
The soul body of the soul palace messenger fluctuated violently.
It's like the calm lake surface has been wrinkled by the wind.
The shaking visible to the naked eye symbolizes his mood at this moment.
"I don't even know what this kind of thing is called."
"It's just that I prefer to call them the line of fate or the red line of fate. In other words, this line represents a person's voice, including their life and their soul."
"Everything is condensed into this thread."
“That’s the nature of the thread of destiny.”
Lu Yuan looked at the Soul Palace envoy with interest.
He spread his hands and asked, "Can you understand?"
"..."
There was another burst of silence.
Lu Yuan still didn't get angry.
He calmly pulled out another red thread from the space. Under the horrified eyes of the Soul Palace envoy, he fiddled with it while doing popular science calmly:
"First of all, let me introduce this world."
"This world is like a big net. We are all ants on the net. Depending on the relationship between ants and ants, there will be a certain thread of fate. Destiny connects us together. Destiny enables us to meet. Fate will also bind us, intersecting with other strange lines of fate at a certain node."
"So, there must be many, many threads of fate on a person. Everyone has them, but the number of these threads of destiny will also change differently according to each person's social interactions."
"What everyone has is relatives."
"That is the line of fate represented by relatives."
After saying that, Lu Yuan calmly raised his hand.
Hold up the red thread in your hand.
He smiled and suddenly asked: "Can you understand?"
The Soul Palace envoy looked at Lu Yuan hesitantly.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yuan was extremely decisive and cut off this red thread again!
What emerged this time was an old man.
The expression on the old face suddenly stopped.
It seems that he did not expect that his death would be so sudden.
Not even a scream came out.
But after seeing the shadow of the old man, the Soul Palace envoy could no longer hold back. His soul body swayed like a candle in the wind, and his voice was slightly hoarse: "That's enough, don't kill anymore. You can punish me on behalf of those who died at my hands, but my children, my parents, my relatives and friends are innocent!"
"innocent?"
It seemed that he heard something funny.
Lu Yuan laughed inappropriately.
Glancing at Xiao Xun'er and Ling Ying, who had slightly unbearable expressions, the smiles on their faces did not disappear, but they gradually stopped laughing and asked, "Do you think these people are also innocent?"
Xiao Xun'er licked her dry lips.
The startling glimpse of the little tongue made Lu Yuan lower his eyes slightly.
Then, Xiao Xun'er replied in a deep voice: "I think these people are innocent. If one person does something, the other person will be blamed. There is a saying that the harm will not harm the wife and children. This saying has been around since a long time ago."
Ling Ying is much more mature than Xiao Xun'er.
Of course, just maturity in the matter.
After thinking about it, he said something that was half refutation and half agreement: "Although this statement is indeed true, he is already our enemy. If you treat the enemy softly, you are harming your own people."
"You're right."
Lu Yuan nodded slightly, with praise on his face.
He spread his hands and asked with a smile: "Sometimes, necessary sacrifices are for a better tomorrow. Look, after you and I broke a few red threads, has this Mr. Eight-Star Douzong become more obedient?" ?”
Xiao Xun'er lowered her eyes slightly.
No answer was given to this question.
after all……
To be honest, she didn't know how to answer...
but……
Turning his head, he looked at the Soul Palace envoy.
Lu Yuan stopped his off-site conversation with Xiao Xun'er.
He raised his eyebrows and asked calmly:
"Suppose you are a criminal thief."
"You stole many, many gold and silver treasures."
"These gold and silver treasures allow your family to live well."
"But one day, your enemy who has robbed a lot of gold and silver treasures came to challenge you. When you knew that you couldn't defeat him, you asked that the harm be spared to your wife and children. As for this enemy, he should agree to it. A request?"
The envoy from the Soul Palace still didn't understand the meaning of these words.
His eyes were desperate and his voice was hoarse: "Then what's the difference between me saying it and not saying it?"
"If there is a difference, there is still some..."
Lu Yuan shook his index finger: "For example, if you cooperate with me obediently, I can kill less people. Although you will die, you don't want to drag the people you love down with you, right?"
"mean!"
"Shameless!"
"Son of a bitch!"
The Soul Palace envoy had a constipated expression on his face.
These words were squeezed out from between the teeth.
It sounded as if Lu Yuan was going to be chewed up immediately.
The expressions of Ling Ying and Xiao Xun'er were a little subtle.
A Soul Palace envoy who kills without batting an eye, is proficient in extracting souls and refining souls, and has captured countless innocent people, actually calls another person despicable and shameless. What kind of magical reality is this?
Moreover……
Are you, a Soul Palace envoy, qualified to say this?
Why do you have the nerve to scold others?
Although Lu Yuan's threat was indeed quite despicable.
But I didn't expect...
"well said!"
Lu Yuan clapped vigorously.
In the stunned expressions of Xiao Xun'er and Ling Ying, they calmly grabbed a handful of red thread, and reminded them softly with a smiling expression:
"I've never been shy about being a villain."
"What I hate is just double standards."
"I, Lu Yuan, have come to this day. It can be said that I have used many unscrupulous methods, tricked many innocent people, and killed many people who should not have been killed. I also have my own selfish motives, but I can touch them. My conscience guarantees that all the friends I have made as a villain have lived quite happily so far, and I have never been ashamed of them. I believe that this is the best outcome for them."
"Because they don't have to worry about whether I will stand among the people of the world one day when I am ostracized or even hunted down!"
"I would rather lose the world than lose one person."
"This is what I understand as a villain."
"Because to me, there is no justice."
"So, you are right."
"but……"
Lu Yuan raised his voice slightly: "I feel very unhappy!"
"Don't!"
The Soul Palace envoy shouted subconsciously.
He glanced at the ball of red thread in Lu Yuan's hand.
There was a trace of struggle in his eyes.
But soon, the struggle disappeared.
He begged in a low voice: "Please show me your noble hand!"
"But I'm very unhappy..."
Lu Yuan counted with his fingers and said to the other party: "Look, have you infiltrated the Yunlan Sect?"
"yes……"
"Then let me ask you again, at the expense of helping Yunshan break through the Douzong, did you master the power of the Yunlan Sect in disguise and help you carry out the mission of the Soul Palace?"
"Yes, but..."
"That's fine."
Lu Yuan interrupted the Soul Palace envoy.
He spread his hands with a look of helplessness on his face: "Tell me, as a disciple of the Yunlan Sect, should I kill you?"
"Yunlan Sect?"
"Stop joking with me."
"You are clearly a genius from the ancient clan."
"Even if you want to kill me, but it doesn't work, I can just make up a reason for you. Now this reason sounds really full of loopholes..."
The envoy from the Soul Palace reminded him with tears in his eyes.
Although he was talking about his own life and death, he didn't care about his own life or death at all. Instead, his eyes were fixed on the red thread ball in Lu Yuan's hand, his eyes full of fear of the unknown.
Less than ten people died.
Based on the current concept of "having more children, making more money" in the mainland, he has seven or eight children. Although there are only two legitimate children, the other children are also his children, and he has more than ten brothers and sisters. Not counting cousins, although there is only one father, there are four nominal mothers. These are all people who are very close to him and must be within the line of fate.
Therefore, it is not too late to make amends!
Just a few deaths will be enough.
If they really all died...
He won't make it easy for Lu Yuan!
He will swallow the whole story!
Lu Yuan couldn't find anything even if he wanted to!
Of course, this Soul Palace envoy also knew very well who was begging whom now. If he had the qualifications to bargain with Lu Yuan before, then if Lu Yuan was angered by his silent attitude and sent his relatives to They were all killed, but his losses were still incomparable to Lu Yuan's!
After all, nothing is lost when a person dies.
The clues are gone, the most we can do is grab another tongue.
Just because he can resist it doesn't mean that everyone can.
Therefore, he has no need to keep secrets.
Especially keeping the secret with the lives of the whole family...
However, the Soul Palace envoy only stated his guess and did not notice how surprised and suspicious the expressions of Xiao Xun'er and Ling Ying were in the same room.
The words just fell.
Lu Yuan hasn't spoken yet.
Xiao Xun'er hurriedly spoke: "He is not from our ancient clan!"
"Um……"
The envoy from the Soul Palace nodded:
"I already knew...huh?"
"What did you say?"
"Isn't he from your ancient tribe?"
The voice instantly rose ten levels.
On the contrary, Xiao Xun'er was shocked: "What's wrong?"
"What else happened..."
"How dare you ask what happened..."
A tremor of soul and body energy:
"When did your ancient tribe dare to do something you dare not do?"
"Besides, you have already captured me!"
"And they are all ready to die!"
"Is it necessary for you to lie to me, a dead man?"
"We are all from the eight ancient tribes!"
"You are a noble eldest lady, I am just a little shrimp with a low blood level in the soul clan branch, but even if you despise me, you are better than using words like a three-year-old child who can analyze whether it is a lie to lie to me. !”
The envoy from the Soul Palace looked aggrieved.
To be honest, it is normal to feel aggrieved.
Threatening his family would have forced him to bow his head.
In the end, he was deceived by lies.
He simply didn’t take his IQ seriously!
You can insult my character!
But you can't insult my intelligence!
But……
Xiao Xun'er is really unjust!
She almost didn't write it on her face!
Besides, if Lu Yuan was not a disciple of the Yunlan Sect, with his bad character, would there be any need to come so far just to hunt you down?
Why, shouldn't you know better?
After all, I, Xiao Xun'er, didn't offend him!
When Ling Ying saw Xiao Xun'er was so angry that she couldn't speak, she couldn't help but snorted coldly. It seemed that she wanted to shock the other party, but she received a disdainful sneer from the Soul Palace envoy and a cold smile from Lu Yuan. A look that was as cold as ice.
Ling Ying's expression suddenly froze.
Looking aside awkwardly.
Avoid this tense atmosphere.
However, Lu Yuan has not deliberately bullied a little girl, and since this matter has changed from a conspiracy stage to a conspiracy, there is no need for him to hide it.
He spread his hands and explained calmly:
"Don't get me wrong, I am indeed a disciple of the Yunlan Sect."
"But before I explain what happened..."
"I want to ask you, Mr. Messenger..."
"Have you sent the information out?"
The Soul Palace envoy couldn't help but tremble.
He glanced at the red thread ball in Lu Yuan's hand worriedly.
Then, he replied humbly:
"It was indeed sent out."
"However, it can still be changed now."
"I can modify the result of this test into a false alarm before sending it up. However, I hope you can throw my bones into the territory of a powerful monster. I don't want me to be detained again when my boss finds me. The last one is the charge of betraying the Soul Palace, because if I am charged with this crime, my relatives and friends will also be held accountable and even punished. Although they are all members of the Soul Clan, it is better to choose to endure that kind of pain than to be punished. You have killed the ease now, at least the pain will only last for a short moment."
Um.
See it.
Everyone in the big family is ruthless.
It’s still unclear whether Lang Mie was killed or not.
Anyway, he is quite cruel to his family.
but……
Since Yao Chendu had to run away in front of the torture of "extracting the soul and refining the soul", even though it was to survive, it can be seen how cruel this torture was.
Although it is better to die than live...
But if life is worse than death, it would be better to die!
Survival is instinct.
Seeking death is rational.
Human beings are called human beings because of their rationality.
Therefore, Lu Yuan did not agree with seeking death, but seeking death under torture was indeed a good choice.
However, if that's the case...
"Then there's no need for me to hide it from you."
Lu Yuan smiled and put away the red thread in his hand.
He nodded towards the Soul Palace envoy.
Then, he raised his hand and pressed it slowly.
"leave!"
"I promise you I won't be involved anymore."
"Your mission has been completed."
"You don't need to know what happens next."
The soul body fluctuates violently.
But he still gave up his intention to resist.
Before breaking, he whispered: "Thank you."
Before he finished speaking, he was covered up by a crisp sound, like glass breaking. Bits of spiritual fragments slowly fell from the air, and dissipated in mid-air before falling to the ground.
Lu Yuan slowly retracted his palm.
I was not disturbed by the words "thank you".
Turning to look at Xiao Xun'er.
Looking at this girl who looks similar to the one in the comics.
Smiling slightly: "Want to hear the cause?"
"If possible, of course I want to hear it."
"Including why he said you are from the ancient tribe."
"Also, how do you know me?"
"And what exactly do I want..."
Xiao Xun'er nodded.
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lu Yuan.
"Is it in my body or not?"
Lu Yuan asked with a smile.
Then, he continued to add: "I guess you still want to know about the relationship between Xiao Yan and me. However, this issue is not as important as the previous ones, so it is dispensable."
"You can see through people's hearts..."
Xiao Xun'er held her forehead in distress.
A heartfelt sigh.
"Looking at the heart?"
"Which heart are you looking at?"
Lu Yuan glanced at it.
Seeing Xiao Xun'er confused and then suddenly alert after understanding, she shook her head in confusion: "Okay, it's just a joke, I'd better talk about the questions you want to know first. …”
Several of Xiao Xun'er's questions are actually very simple.
Especially on the basis of "cooked rice becomes cooked rice".
Conspiracy is like a trap.
No one knows where it is.
Yangmou is also a trap.
But this hole is right in the middle of the road.
Unless you can fly over.
Otherwise, even if you see it, you will still fall in.
so……
"The cause is actually very simple."
"All of this is a trap set by me."
"Destiny, time, and space, these three powers are actually on the same level. However, most people can only master the power of space and can see and perceive the power of time, but cannot know the power of fate by any means."
"However, the power of destiny is unique in terms of predicting the future. Therefore, it is extremely easy for me, who has mastered the power of destiny, to plot against you who do not have the power of destiny."
"The only one I can't see is Xiao Yan."
"After a short conversation, I confirmed my previous conjecture. From now on, I can see that I don't know everything about you, but I can be considered to have some understanding. It happened that the Yunlan Sect was still in the midst of internal and external troubles at that time. , I know very well that my current strength is not enough to fight against the Soul Palace, let alone the Soul Clan, so you in the Xiao family have become my best bargaining chip."
"The Soul Palace envoy knew about you and sent a message."
"This means that the Soul Palace will send experts to catch you."
"The Xiao family will be discovered by then."
"You will know that the Xiao family is the Xiao clan back then."
"But who would believe that the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, which has been searched through the Xiao family but not found, will not be in the hands of you, the eldest lady of the ancient clan?"
Lu Yuan unbuttoned his collar.
The jade pendant pierced by red thread made the corners of Xiao Xun'er's eyes twitch slightly.
"So, this is what you're here for?"
There was silence for a long time.
Xiao Xun'er asked slowly.
Neither stupidly rushed to snatch it, nor did he accuse Lu Yuan of doing something wrong. He just calmly analyzed it while digesting the concept of the power of destiny, and continued in accordance with Lu Yuan's meaning.
Lu Yuan nodded.
Then, he shook his head again.
"Yes, but also no."
"As stated above."
"Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade is of no use to me."
"But it will be very useful to you."
"So, as I hold the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, I can use the Unknown Prophet at any time to shatter this jade before you eight ancient tribes want to capture me, so that the inheritance of Emperor Dou will disappear completely."
"This is a strategy that will destroy both the jade and the stone."
"This is also a threat I give you."
"Secondly, there are two aspects."
"On the one hand, I want to protect the Yunlan Sect."
"Anyway, this is my first home in this world. Although this home is not very clean, this home is still tolerant of me and does not have to kick me out. The same goes for the teacher, although Say, I do have some evil thoughts..."
At this point, Lu Yuan coughed lightly.
In Xiao Xun'er's subtle eyes, an abrupt turning point ended this stray topic:
"So, I want to protect Yunlan Sect."
"Then the Yunlan Sect must be the Yunlan Sect."
"Not the Yunlan Sect under the Soul Palace."
"Yunshan has been obsessed with Breakthrough Douzong."
"He is now thinking about how to break through the Douzong."
"I can beat him."
"But it will cause the Yunlan Sect to collapse directly."
"But if we don't fight and take it slowly, this cancer will still be detonated in three years at most. In this case, I can only find a shield."
"This shield is you."
"The reinforcements from the Soul Palace have already learned about the existence of a suspected young clan leader of the eight ancient clans. It was not until just now that you sent a warning signal to the reinforcements from your ancient clan. The time difference between this time was enough for Soul Palace General Tuo Shegu to The death of Emperor Jade and the Soul Palace envoy is on your shoulders!"
"Of course, you can also argue."
"But, they won't listen."
"The reinforcements from the ancient tribe will not allow you to be taken away by the people from the Soul Palace for investigation, so they will definitely take action."
"At that time, neither the Yunlan Sect nor the Xiao family will be watched by the people from the Soul Palace and the Ancient Clan. They will only focus on you Gu Xun'er. At most, plus me Lu Yuan is alone."
"That's what I'm here for."
"Because I'm never afraid of trouble."
"I don't like causing trouble to my family either."
"That's about it."
Lu Yuan spread his hands.
Sit calmly on the chair.
Some even added leisurely: "If you don't believe it, you can think about it in another person's shoes. Will you believe the nonsense told by the Young Clan Leader of the Soul Clan? As for Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, without any evidence, will you?" Do you trust your own investigation or trust what others tell you?”
Xiao Xun'er gritted her silver teeth.
There seemed to be a layer of frost on the little face: "Then I really thank you!"
"It's impossible to talk about..."
Lu Yuan waved his hand.
He pointedly reminded: "However, if one day I learn that the Xiao family was destroyed by the Soul Clan or other ancient clans because of the guidance of your ancient clan, my hands will shake disobediently. , it would not be good if some jade pendant is broken..."
