Chapter 43 Farewell

Author: Sharkshou Zhazhao

Just as the long sword broke through the air, those "black sheep" fell to the ground one after another for some unknown reason!

Li Qianyin immediately withdrew his sword when he saw that the situation was wrong. The two men's swords tilted and cut deeply into the wooden boards on both sides of the chariot.

As the sword was drawn out again, the red curtains originally hanging on the chariot were cut off and fell to the ground.

At this moment, Lu Wenyong didn't know when he pulled out the dagger, took two steps forward and put it against the belly of the girl in red.

The thing in his hand seemed to weigh a thousand kilograms. General Lu Long, who used to be comfortable with swords and guns, now had to hold even a small dagger with trembling hands.

"Husband."

At the same time, the girl raised her hand, not to ward off the sharp blade that was stabbing her. Instead, she spread her arms like a newlywed wife waiting for her husband to return, with eyes full of anticipation.

But there was a faint trace of blood oozing from the skin.

Lu Wen's face turned pale as death, and there were long tears in his eyes sliding down his cheeks splattered with dust and blood.

"What's wrong with you! Chu Chu! What's wrong with you!!"

As soon as his hand loosened, he dropped the dagger without hesitation and moved forward to hold her hand.

However, the moment the man's fingertips touched her withered little hands, she shrank back, hesitantly staring at her pale fingers without nails, and looking blankly into his eyes, her eyes dull.

As if she remembered, she jumped off the chariot, stood in front of the couple who had just escaped death, drew a strange talisman in the void, and whispered a mantra.

"Cough, cough, cough."

She looked back at the young couple, trying her best to squeeze out a gentle smile.

"After he is fine, no one can hurt you anymore. Separate you."

Under the young woman's surprised eyes, her skin was like porcelain, with cracks appearing bit by bit and black blood oozing out.

"neat!"

The man rushed over as if he had collapsed, knelt down beside her, reached out to support the little child who was almost blown away in the wind, and called her name one after another.

Chu Yuening smiled bitterly, used all his strength to hit Lu Wenyong away with his palm, and forced himself to stand up straight.

Its daybreak.

The blood between the cracks in the skin dripped on the ground, emitting white smoke and immediately disappeared into the yellow sand. The blood seeped out from under the red clothes, and gradually evaporated in the new sunlight.

The child in red, who was as white as a porcelain doll, gradually became transparent.

"Chuchu! Chuchu!!!"

Seeing the man's hands grabbing at the space between her gradually fading body as he rushed towards her again, she laughed out loud, with a childlike look on her brows as if she had succeeded in a mischief.

"You're so stupid, you can't catch me now."

"Lu Wenyong, remember, I didn't die because of you. I died because I couldn't bear to see this troubled world. Let them lose their love forever."

"Yes, yes, Chu Chu, you are the strongest here, you don't want-"

"Li Qianyin," she interrupted the man and turned to look at the complicated-looking girl beside her.

"You, don't look at me like that. For the sake of saving my life, I will tell you mercifully. Your father was framed by that Yongding Marquis. But, but, let him die.

Yes, it’s Ming Xi and the emperor of the Central Plains.”

"He and I were taken back to the Hundred Thousand Mountains. But I survived, but he didn't."

"——Evil! The evil is about to be born. Ah! Also, that kid Liao Dan has been poisoned, so you must be careful!"

She was breathing hard, as if her body was dissipating with every word she spoke.

"Chu Yuening, you!"

Li Qianyin took a step forward, clasped her left hand tightly under her sleeve, and secretly performed the technique.

"Don't waste your efforts anymore, Li Qianyin. Keep your skills and go kill those enemies."

She shook her head and spoke in an extremely weak tone, "I fed the Gu with my flesh and blood, and refined myself into a Gu. Now the Gu has been biting me back. Even if Ming Xi comes, he can't save me. Of course, he wants me now."

Hurry up and die, in his hands, I am just a pawn that is difficult to manipulate and out of his control."

"There's more"

She lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes casting a shadow on her young face.

It seems that there is still a lot of words left unsaid.

"Lu Wenyong, you protected the people. I don't blame you. But if there was still a chance, would you save me?"

"I will, Chu Chu, if I knew you were not dead at that time, I would definitely do it!"

The man knelt on the ground, muttering in pain, holding his hands in the air and shaking violently, fearing that the person in front of him would be wiped out in ashes accidentally.

"Then will you still marry her?"

"Oh," she continued without waiting for his answer, "I don't believe what men say."

"But I know that what happened back then was not yours. As long as I come here, I have no regrets."

"Haha, I said so many words today. I have never said so many words in more than 20 years."

"I'm tired and want to take a nap."

The eyes of the girl in red suddenly opened wide, and a bright light flashed in her black and white almond-shaped eyes.

Chu Yuening, or perhaps Chu Yuelian, raised her head and looked in the direction of the rising sun. The warm sunlight shone on her face through her transparent and jagged hands.

I don't know whether she saw it or thought of something, but a smile of relief appeared on her broken face.

Outside the city, the soldiers who escaped the control of the Gu insects fought again, repelled Liao Dan's first wave of offensive, and defended Pingzhou.

In the distance, the sound of the bell symbolizing victory came.

In front of me, a handful of small ashes melted into the yellow sand.

Her general came to pick her up.

Although, with the help of Qianji Pavilion led by Jiang Tianluo, Gu Qingrang, and two Wu Changs, Pingzhou managed to achieve a defensive victory, the war was about to break out, and everyone still could not let go of their worries.

"Our people found out that due to the sudden defection of Chu Yuening, a crucial chess piece, the group of people on the northern border of the Central Plains could no longer hold back."

"In the current situation, the officials in the Central Plains are refusing to cede sixteen states to Liao and Dan. If the newly appointed Khan of the Yelu family is determined to die in Pingzhou, the Empress Dowager Shulu can follow the trend and call her youngest son

If you ascend to power and capture Pingzhou in the name of a crusade, then of course nothing will happen to Li Dan."

Gu Qingrang took a sip of tea and looked like the situation was not good.

"That's right, so Li Dan didn't expect to lose his scalp now. Everyone in the world is seeking profit, but not all people in the world are ruthless."

Li Qianyin sighed and continued:

"He has only two options now. Either he can propose a deal with the same price as Sixteen States and continue to cooperate with Liaodan; or he can simply fight to the death and send troops to aid the peace. Even if he can't get Pingzhou, at least he can still forcefully exchange it.

The reputation of a wise king."

Jiang Tianluo frowned, "By the way, I just heard from my sister-in-law that Yuening mentioned that Yelu Dejin was poisoned. I wonder what his condition is now?"

Li Hecheng raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at each other with Li Qianyin, his eyes full of victory:

"Don't worry, he is under the supervision of a dozen masters from the Qianji Pavilion. If there is a problem, someone will report it immediately."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard an "expert" trotting in, bending his knees and saying hurriedly:
Chapter completed!
