A clear conspiracy.
The imprint formed by the fate card shines in the palm of the hand, and the pure gold is extremely dazzling.
Of course, this mark is just an external sign.
Even if Chen Kuang's hand is cut off now, the connection between lives still exists. As long as he has a thought, those practitioners can be buried with him in an instant.
This is the deepest and strongest connection. Maybe someone can cut it off, but that doesn't include Shen Xingzhu, who is halfway into the world.
Shen Xingzhu looked at him with deep eyes.
"Of course I know."
she says.
"Li Hongling wanted to hide it from me. After I left, he blew up the entire imperial city and buried more than 2,000 people in the Liang Palace here together with Su Yu's body."
When Chen Kuang heard this, he laughed out loud with a playful expression.
She really knew Li Hongling's little moves!
And this was exactly the situation she wanted to see and induce herself.
Using the illusion of compassion as bait, once Li Hongling really detonated those mountain-breaking thunders, Shen Xingzhu would immediately kill Li Hongling without leaving any room for action.
It was this killing game that Shen Xingzhu was enjoying.
Whenever she showed any suspicion, Li Hongling would be wary and would not dare to take action due to the prestige of the Xuan Shen Dao Sect, but she would remain indifferent.
It's a pity that Li Hongling died in the hands of Chen Kuang in the end.
And Shen Xingzhu himself was also broken by Chen Kuang.
Everything she planned turned into an unpredictable mess because of Chen Kuang.
Shen Xingzhu heard his laughter and suddenly felt a little irritated in his heart.
Here it is again...
Why?
This guy has obviously fallen back to the realm of enlightenment. The pain all over his body should have burst out at the same time. In addition, he is in a desperate situation. He should be in pain at this time. Why do he still dare to laugh?
Shen Xingzhu stared at him, emphasized his tone:
"Of course I know about the thunder that Li Hongling planted, but if you want to threaten me with this, you are just being sentimental."
Chen Kuang smiled and said: "What do you mean by the fairy's words?"
Shen Xingzhu said: "There are no mortals in the city at this moment. Whether these practitioners voluntarily or deceived by you, they have entrusted their lives to you. You don't want them to die because of you, as long as you don't kill mortals."
"If you don't know, it's my fault. But if you know it clearly, you're just killing someone with a borrowed knife."
She said calmly: "They died because of you and it was your fault. What does it have to do with me?"
"What a borrowed knife to kill someone."
"It's so clear. It seems that fairies are really not easy to fool."
Chen Kuang sighed: "However, the fairy is not going to save the people in the imperial city, so..."
"Will the fairy save the entire Liang Kingdom, and even the people in the world, or not?"
Shen Xingzhu's eyes narrowed, and the irritation in his heart suddenly expanded.
Just like the music of a piano that was disrupted, the ripples of the lake water that were shaken by stones can no longer be calmed down.
The entire Liang Kingdom, and even the world?
You, a villain in the Enlightenment Realm, are actually talking nonsense about the world?
It’s so crazy!
If it were in the past, Shen Xingzhu would have heard a cultivator with enlightenment state talk about world affairs, just like hearing an ant talk about tripping up an elephant, he would have simply ignored it and would not even have the qualifications to treat it as a joke.
However, at this moment, when Chen Kuang said these words, Shen Xingzhu could not ignore them.
She even had a vague idea in her heart.
What this guy says, he really dares to do, and he can really do it!
But... what is it that allows him to use the world as a handle?
a long time.
Seeing that Shen Xingzhu remained silent, Chen Kuang laughed.
"Why did the fairy hesitate?"
"I'm just a despicable person, talking arrogantly, why should I take it seriously? Why don't you chop off my head with a sword now and put an end to the fairy's worries."
The more confident he became, the more hesitant Shen Xingzhu became.
Shen Xingzhu took a deep breath, suppressed the irritation in his heart, and said coldly: "What exactly do you want to do?"
Chen Kuang reached out and put his hands on Chu Wenruo's thin shoulders: "Have you ever heard of a secret, Fairy?"
"A secret that only the Liang royal family is qualified to know."
Shen Xingzhu frowned and looked at Chu Wenruo.
Chu Wenruo's eyes widened, as if he had not thought about the secret he had told to relieve his boredom earlier in order to save Chen Kuang's life.
Now it actually plays a key role.
Chen Kuang then said quietly: "Since the fairy knows the secret passages where gunpowder is buried, he should have discovered it long ago. Those secret passages are filled with a lot of spiritual energy."
Shen Xingzhu felt more and more uncomfortable: "So what? All the secret passages are arranged according to the Qiankun magic number, which is clearly to maintain the formation of the imperial city's protective barrier."
"oh?"
Qiankun Shushu... is another unfamiliar term.
However, it turns out that this is how other people view the significance of the existence of spiritual energy in the secret passage.
Chen Kuang said unhurriedly: "At this moment, the barrier protecting the country has been broken. Fairy, do you think the secret spiritual energy is still there?"
Shen Xingzhu's breath was stagnant.
Chen Kuang understood in his heart and said with a smile: "It seems that it is still there."
Shen Xingzhu appeared next to Chen Kuang in an instant, with a long sword on his neck: "What is the secret channel formation used for?"
Chen Kuang originally wanted to fool around a bit more, but after calculating that the time was almost up, he shrugged and said:
"Just under that prison, there is also a demon-suppressing prison, which seals an ancient demon with a cultivation level reaching the sky."
"And with the power of those mountain-breaking thunders, it only takes an instant to explode this seal."
Chen Kuang grinned: "In a sense, the fairy should really thank me."
"If Li Hongling really detonates those mountain-breaking thunders as you want, then you will be more than just like you are now..."
But it would be a hundred times more miserable.
After all, in that case, it would be entirely because of her selfishness that the Great Demon Tongtian would be released and all living beings would be devastated.
Taoist heart will be broken into pieces.
However... the current situation doesn't seem to be much better.
Shen Xingzhu's pupils narrowed and he looked at the ruins of the imperial city that were now silent.
Chen Kuang clicked his tongue and said: "I wonder how powerful an ancient demon can be? How can it be compared to a saint?"
Shen Xingzhu turned around suddenly, moved the sword in his hand an inch forward, and cut open the skin of Chen Kuang's neck.
Chen Kuang smiled and raised his hand, making a fist hard.
Golden light burst out from the palm of his hand.
“BOOM!!!!”
In the center of the imperial city, there was a loud noise and flames shot into the sky.
The raging fire ignited the embers of the imperial city, and in an instant it rose up against the storm, sweeping half of the city.
The ground rumbled, and where the secret passage was, the foundation had been completely blown away, turning into a dark crack like an abyss.
A terrifying and evil aura escaped from it.
Vaguely, in the deep darkness, a huge fluorescent blue eye slowly opened, its scarlet vertical pupils extremely enchanting.
"This is the first one."
Chen Kuang chuckled and said: "There are still twelve people left. As long as I think about it, they will immediately activate the remaining mountain-breaking thunder."
"Fairy, now you can choose -"
"Kill me, or turn back to the imperial city now and seal the big demon again."
"Those practitioners died because of me, but the people in the world who will die because of this monster in the future will die because of you."
Shen Xingzhu now understood where his confidence came from.
He has a fire in his hand that can burn this city and set the world on fire.
Chen Kuang said with full of malice:
"I have a saying, I must return it to Fairy Shen as it is."
"If you don't know, it's my fault. But if you know it clearly, you're just killing someone with a borrowed knife."
Shen Xingzhu's face turned a little pale: "Those people came to save the Liang Kingdom..."
Chen Kuang nodded and said with a gentle smile: "That's right, they are also dying to save Liang Guo now."
"They willingly let me decide whether they would live or die, and they deserved to die."
Shen Xingzhu took a breath and stared at Chen Kuang's smiling face.
"You are simply...the devil."
After that, he put away his sword and turned into a stream of light and rushed towards the imperial city that was already shrouded in flames.
Chu Wenruo, who had been trembling just now, was stunned and breathed a sigh of relief: "She's gone! Mr. Chen, are we...safe?"
"ah!"
She suddenly exclaimed because Chen Kuang actually slapped her on the butt.
The beautiful woman's face suddenly turned red with embarrassment. She bit her lips tightly and tried not to make any more noise.
"not yet."
Chen Kuang's voice was tired and he fell forward, leaning heavily on Chu Wenruo's back.
"Come on, remember what I just said? Grab the reins, run forward, and don't look back."
His voice became lower and lower.
Chu Wenruo's heart tightened, and then he felt that his back was wet, sticky, and warm.
It wasn't sweat...it was blood.
Her face turned pale, and she reached out to grab Chen Kuang's hand on her shoulder, and unexpectedly touched a bright red patch.
