Xia Xinhe and Duan Qing have been keeping silent, and their disgusting external characters have successfully provided a cover for them. At least people like Lu Ning who have always been cautious did not expect that these two people actually played a game. Put such a big one.

This is the real "table overturn" - these two people don't know what method they have mastered, and they can actually start to pull the timeline of this world to another dimension. This is obviously only possible for terrifying beings like witches. They actually got it done.

But for Lu Ning, Xia Xinhe and others, the world on that side is catastrophic. Time does not flow forward, but flows "upward". Since the task of the distribution center has a time limit, she does not dare to bet on when it will be possible. Being picked up.

And the final result, whether they are pulled to a world on another timeline, or people who are left at this new origin of time for some reason, will live in a world that is completely different from before. Yes, Xia Xinhe can indeed "live" with this move, because his time is no longer moving forward. The mission has basically been accomplished. After all, it is absolutely impossible for the past on the original timeline to flow into this future.

The only chance at this moment is the only gap in the middle!

Fortunately, Zhu You is a very reliable teammate when he is not in mortal danger.

Under Xia Xinhe's shocked eyes, abnormal light began to emit around Lu Ning. The light gathered into white particles in the air, condensing and not dispersing, while gray particles began to fall out of the space around Lu Ning. And part of Lu Ning himself began to break. He immediately felt something was wrong and turned to look into the town.

Duan Qing appeared on the far side of the road at some unknown time. She smiled at Xia Xinhe, and this smile made Xia Xinhe's unstable body return to normal. Lu Ning's side began to disintegrate faster.

"Farewell... Xia Xinhe, I hope you still have a chance to escape from the cage of this time in your life." Lu Ning gave Xia Xinhe a deep look. This was the first opponent she had encountered who could not analyze the flaws, regardless of Whether it's his acting skills in the early stage, his identity control in the middle stage, or his handwriting that now involves the entire task, this person can be regarded as a formidable opponent.

Then she began to slide.

Along with countless black and white particles, Lu Ning felt the weight of time pushing her forward again, but she knew that this would not last long. The explosion of the Witch's Skeleton is enough to create a time gap, and all she has to do is rely on this gap to escape back to the past.

"Lu Ning! What's going on? I saw your curved light signal and detonated the witch's skeleton. Are you okay?"

Zhu You's voice sounded like the sounds of nature to Lu Ning at this moment, which at least meant that she was back to the normal world now. However, one of her arms and half of her legs were shattered by the explosion of the Witch's Skeleton. At this moment, she could only grab Zhu You and tell her: "Go back now! Go back to the previous time!"

"I'll take you with me."

The sound of flapping wings sounded in the sky. Lu Ning raised his head and saw a flock of birds covering the sky and nearly thirty completely demonized demons. They were probably the remaining residents of Baihu Town today. .

Feathers had grown on Sera's body, and a pair of black wings spread out from her back. She swooped down and hugged Lu Ning and Zhu You directly, and rushed to the lakeside hut with the birds.

"Why didn't you stop those two people?" Lu Ning asked Sera in a low voice.

"Because what they want to do is no different to the witch. At most, it will be a disaster for us."

Sierra smiled.

"Then where are you going?"

"Anywhere is fine, we don't need coordinates." Serra said.

Lu Ning immediately understood that for these demons, there was no past that they could call home, so it would be the same no matter where they went.

“What does this future hold?”

"It will extend forever in the 'up' direction. Because people are not only one-dimensional time creatures, but they can only move forward, and eventually they will be farther and farther away from the origin."

Sera, who transformed into a demon, flew extremely fast, and the three of them landed at the lakeside hut in two minutes.

"Then, send them here." Sera put the two of them down at the door, then opened the door, turned back and smiled at them, "I wish you all the best, and I will bless you in another timeline."

Then, she stepped into the dark door and disappeared.

Zhu You helped Lu Ning and was slightly stunned. At this time, there were more landing sounds behind him, and the demons behind him also arrived. They passed by the two of them in silence, and some even turned back to give Lu Ning and Zhu You an encouraging look. There is still a vague sense of familiarity in these demonic faces.

Innkeeper, blacksmith, carpenter, doctor, forest ranger...

The names are not important, they are just the sum of the characters in countless worlds. These demons passed through the door one by one and then disappeared.

After the last demon left, the moonlight above his head began to become blurry.

"Let's go."

Lu Ning opened the door with her own key and moved in with difficulty.

Inside was a wall that was smashed by Qiu Yiyun's hammer, but now it looked like a gentle attack. Immediately afterwards, Zhu You also appeared behind, and she closed the door, completely isolating the collapsing future behind the door.

"It's so dangerous... Lu Ning, will this affect our current progress?"

"Other than the fact that I need time to recover, the return ceremony won't have much impact." Lu Ning had recovered from the dizzying scene before, but now she felt that it was a bit strange: "Where are the people here? Didn't they fight? "

The house here was so quiet, as if Qiu Yiyun didn't do anything at all. But given her temper, would it be possible not to take action?

"Zhu You, are the people over there there?"

"That's right there." Zhu You nodded immediately, "The four of them were in the hot spring room, but they didn't take action. They seemed to be still in a confrontation."

What happened?

"We may not have been away for long..." Lu Ning whispered, "The flow of time changed when Xia Xinhe and I entered the world. I thought at least an hour had passed, but it seemed to be very short."

"Then now Qiu Yiyun's side..."

"I can't support her in my current state." Lu Ning leaned against the wall, her missing arms and legs slowly growing back, but after all, this was a severed limb injury, and even the devil probably couldn't help it for a while. Just recover, not to mention she has very little time left to transform into a demon tonight.

At this moment, the sound of the wall being smashed finally came from the other side of the corridor.

Qiu Yiyun was disgusted. The Dayan Determinant Chart was not a defense she could break through. If Shen Lishu was the only one, she could kill the opponent by rushing directly from an attacking position with her speed. But now Yi Luo and Ye Chu With Qinghu by his side, there would be no good results if he forced a frontal breakthrough.

Iroh has also used his special skills. Every human tourist is more or less given some means of resistance. Iroh is holding a stabbing sword thrown out from a silver cylinder. Compared to Ye Chuqing, this was just a blessed weapon, but Qiu Yiyun knew that once she was injured, it would cause extensive burns.

To make matters worse, Shen Lishu used the blood from the tip of Ye Chuqing's tongue to elicit the second number in Dayan's horoscope, a fight to the death.

Until dawn, both sides would be in such a state of probing or fighting that she couldn't even think of a temporary retreat, while Iroh was completely ready to contribute a third mouthful of blood when needed.

"You are really willing to sacrifice your life. Even if I stand with you until dawn, when that old thing can't hold on any longer, you will still be dead!"

"Dawn is human time." Ye Chuqing did not accept this trick, "Just wait, we can survive the whole night, complete the task and kill a demon at the same time, this is definitely our profit."

Qiu Yiyun smashed the wall around her angrily, but she still did not dare to step into the hot spring room.

The small room is perfect for azimuth science. Ye Chuqing's three-vein and seven-wheel system is a rare all-round defense capability. Moreover, if she drives more than four rounds, she may still be restrained. Yiluo's stabbing sword is enough to Kill her when she slows down.

"Damn turtle shell..." Controlling the field, defending, and assassinating, the three of them formed the most troublesome defensive formation, simply and effectively holding back Qiu Yiyun.

At this moment, footsteps came from the corridor behind her. Qiu Yiyun tilted her head slightly, one eye suddenly slid to the back of her head, and when she saw the person coming from behind, she couldn't help but feel happy on her face.

The three people in the room all looked nervous.

"Zhu You! Help me kill these guys! Our tasks can be completed separately!"

Zhu You, who was walking along the corridor, just spread his hands and said: "Forget it, you have to know that I am not planning to take the murderous route, not to mention that once I prepare to attack, I will probably end up like you."

"You! Are you just going to listen to what Lu Ning says?"

"I think it's safer to hear someone who is going well than someone who is acting recklessly. That's what I value most, don't you remember?" Zhu You walked to the hole in the wall opened by Qiu Yiyun and told the three people inside He said hello, "Professor Shen, long time no see."

"I didn't expect you were also a demon." Shen Lishu coughed.

"Looking at what we did together on the first day, don't be so angry, right? Besides, I'm here to tell you some important news."

"What's the news?" Iroh stood up and asked.

Seeing their unfriendly looks, Zhu You could only shrug.

"Lu Ning asked me to tell Mr. Shen that this place is Li. You probably didn't calculate it before coming here, so she will tell you the result directly. The time should be Xu Shi Wu Qi, which corresponds to this hexagram."

"Li?" Yiluo was a little confused, he didn't understand this. On the contrary, Shen Lishu's expression changed after hearing Zhu You's words.

"Also, Dayan Destiny has no effect on this. She is preset, and you can only interfere with things after the spell takes effect... Please don't expect that thing to protect you. Having said that, I should leave quickly. .”

After Zhu You finished speaking, he ran away without looking back.

Shen Lishu quickly took out his pocket watch from his arms, and was so excited that he almost dropped it. Qiu Yiyun suddenly saw how could he let this opportunity go? Immediately, he stepped into the attack position with a swing of the hammer and rushed directly towards the three people.

"A quarter past eight, run, run!" Professor Shen yelled at the top of his lungs. He didn't even bother to maintain the Dayan horoscope. He reached out to open the two narrow windows behind him. Ye Chuqing opened a window in a hurry. Two rings, one yellow and one green, resisted Qiu Yiyun. Yiluo didn't know if biting his tongue was useful at this time, so he could only bite the bullet and use his stabbing sword to go up to support.

But nothing fell into place.

Everyone was only halfway through their movements when they saw a very dazzling light, fire, in the dark house. They are distributed in every hidden corner of the house and connected together with a series of simple excitation devices. They are incendiary bombs of this era that are almost invisible to tourists.

“Basically all my reserves are buried at the lake house.”

Lu Ning sat on a tree, watching the lakeside hut in the distance turn into a sea of ​​fire. When she didn't need to worry about Zhu You, she could use Shadow Leap to go to any safe place. She just had to activate the power of the lakeside hut before leaving. Just arrange it.

Who can escape depends on his own ability. Qiu Yiyun always thought that Lu Ning wanted to save everyone, which was completely a wrong impression. Lu Ning has always been better at killing people. She just wants to control her actions so as not to block all escape routes, but she won't take special care of the people who died in her plan because she couldn't find a way out.

The situation in the hut was even more tragic.

The detonation of the incendiary bomb ignited the entire house. For the lake house where most of the structure was flammable, the fire was simply impossible to extinguish. It's a little better that there is water in the hot spring room, but there is only one exit, which is a fatal problem - Qiu Yiyun is blocked in that direction.

She was still laughing wildly.

"Hahahaha! Isn't this great support? If I had done this earlier, I would have seen who would dare to be a coward here!"

The fire did not burn Qiu Yiyun's body, but she peeled off the burnt skin directly. The gelatinous demon body formed a defensive shell on the body surface. Stepping on the flames, she began to get closer to the flames. Three people surrounded.

Ye Chuqing had already quickly taken off her coat, soaked it in the hot spring and threw it on Shen Lishu. She also opened her four chakras to completely seal out the surrounding flames. Yiluo stood one step inside her defensive circle. He didn't dare to move. When Qiu Yiyun saw this situation, he couldn't help but laugh.

"You can only defend, right? It seems that this is your limit, and I can break this defense as easily as popping a balloon!"

She threw the hammer in her hand directly, and the huge force smashed the two chakras in front of Ye Chuqing's body, causing her to spit out a mouthful of blood and stagger back.

The flames finally reached her and Iroh.

"It's open! Run!" Behind him, Shen Lishu tremblingly opened the small window, which was barely large enough for a person to crawl through. Ye Chuqing didn't care about her own injuries and held Shen directly underneath. Almanac climbed up.

"Professor! Leave first!"

"Don't be in love with war! She..."

"We know!" Ye Chuqing swallowed a mouthful of blood and interrupted Shen Lishu's words, while Yiluo looked at Qiu Yiyun who was walking step by step, raised his rapier and faced him directly!

"You want to be the first to die? That's not bad!"

Qiu Yiyun pulled out a small knife from her waist and knocked away the bayonet, then struck Yiluo directly with a hand knife!

Click!

Another green ring shattered, Ye Chuqing knelt in the flames and gasped, blocking Qiu Yiyun's blow was basically the limit.

"The worst problem with chakra is that it has to be in a perfect circulation state. Now... can you still do it?" Qiu Yiyun didn't care. She took a step back after being shocked, and immediately grabbed it again, and this Ye Chuqing couldn't muster the strength to resist again.

However, the sound of the flames burning, the sound of the house beginning to collapse, and Qiu Yiyun's laughter also covered up a subtle mechanical sound here.

The hand knife pierced Iroh's chest easily, but Qiu Yiyun's laughter also stopped abruptly.
