"Death for her?"
Lu Li stood up with his long sword and said with a chuckle: "Who said that in today's battle, I must be the one sending myself to death?"
Yuan Jingtao fell silent.
He stared at Lu Li, especially at the long sword in his hand whose roots were unclear.
During the previous fight, the long sword in Lu Li's hand showed almost as much power as Dragon's Kiss. What's even more frightening is that no matter how exquisite a sword move he performs, Lu Li can always find its most fatal flaw.
It was as if in front of him, any sword technique in the world would be broken by him.
Such a weird and terrifying feeling was something Yuan Jingtao had never experienced before. So he was very wary of Lu Li, and what was even more wary was the long sword in his hand.
Yuan Jingtao suspected that Lu Li's ability to have such magical powers must be due to the long sword in his hand or the sword formation.
It was precisely because of this suspicion that he chose to use words to delay time. Otherwise, despite Lu Li's appearance of being seriously injured, a real fight would have occurred unless Yuan Jingtao fought hard and was sucked away by the sword array. Injure him, otherwise Lu Li will always have the absolute advantage in the battle between the two.
Even Lu Li's current injury was caused by Yuan Jingtao's burst of true energy that reversed the outcome twice. Otherwise, his left arm would have been broken by now.
"Whether you are going to die or not, with your energy and blood, you can't last much longer. I admit that in terms of swordsmanship, I am not your opponent, but once this sword formation is broken, it will only be a matter of breathing for me to kill you. .”
Yuan Jingtao said calmly: "Stop it and submit to His Highness Prince Cang. Your status in the future will never be lower than mine."
"This is my promise to you, and it is also the greatest sincerity His Highness is willing to give."
Yuan Jingtao is a general under the command of Prince Cang, and even treasures such as Swallowing Heaven can be handed over to him with confidence, which shows that his status in Prince Cang's palace is definitely not low. The promise he gave could actually represent some of King Cang's attitudes.
This is already a very high treatment. If it were another person, he might really give in.
Fighting life and death, but driven by profit.
What is the difference between working for King Yan or working for King Cang? As long as the price given is enough, changing one's position is just a change of master.
Yuan Jingtao narrowed his eyes, as if waiting for Lu Li's answer, but secretly he had already tightened his grip on Dragon Kiss. He was wary of Lu Li's movements and the flying sword under his sleeve that had not appeared until now.
Yes.
Until now, Lu Li had not used the elusive flying sword under his sleeve, as if he had completely forgotten about it.
However, Yuan Jingtao was very sure that Lu Li must be waiting. He was waiting for an opportunity to kill, and hiding the flying sword was more intimidating than blindly consuming his energy and blood. What's more, Yuan Jingtao had already seen the flying sword under his sleeve when he first met Lu Li. In normal times, Yuan Jingtao could completely ignore the flying sword, but in the current situation, the flying sword hidden by Lu Li has become a fatal winner that he must pay attention to at all times.
"Manager Yuan, you made one mistake from the very beginning."
Lu Li said calmly: "I never said that I wanted to kill you for King Yan, let alone that I was working for King Yan."
"If it wasn't for King Yan, why would you do this?" Yuan Jingtao was slightly startled.
Perhaps in his mind, to be worthy of such a desperate effort, there must be certain benefits.
Otherwise, why would Lu Li spend so much money to build the sword array and even risk his own life in this battle
"It seems that our three views really don't match up." Lu Li shook his head, "In this life, there is a bloody battle. Who stipulates that it must be for a certain person?"
Lu Li raised his sword and wiped the blood on it with the sleeve of his green robe, but he was thinking that if that damn girl Ding Lingxi saw him, he would definitely instigate her again. However, it was such a simple action, and now it was a bit difficult for him to do it. Although he could still maintain a standing posture, the thunder pool in the body's acupoints was already dim. Yuan Jingtao was right. Once the sword array was activated, his appetite would indeed be too much for him.
This battle with Yuan Jingtao actually went through many considerations.
Lu Li had already seen the danger of Yuan Jingtao after their meeting in the small courtyard. If a strong man with such deep scheming and great ambitions didn't take this opportunity to eradicate him, what would happen to him? Japan will definitely be a big threat.
It's just that Lu Li didn't have the corresponding opportunity and no suitable reason to take action against Yuan Jingtao. But this time, it was Yuan Jingtao who took the initiative to bump into him. He held the sky-swallowing artifact, put pressure on the Ye family, and blatantly participated in the Shenwei Division rebellion. If he was not killed, Lu Li would not be able to swallow his breath.
"If it's not for King Yan, why do you have to kill me?"
Yuan Jingtao didn't seem to understand the connection, or in other words, he didn't expect that the reason why Lu Li wanted to kill him was so simple.
"I will kill you today only for myself." Lu Li grinned, the energy and blood in his body exploded again, and he struck Yuan Jingtao with one sword.
Although most of this energy and blood was absorbed by the sword formation, at this moment, he couldn't care too much.
Yuan Jingtao's face turned cold, and the two began to fight again. The feeling that made him very uncomfortable appeared again.
No matter what sword move he used, Lu Li was like a prophet who could break it in the weirdest way, almost by pressing him down.
"It's really useful to detect the flaws of Ten Thousand Swords." Lu Li wandered around the pavilion, and the Yuan Jingtao in front of him turned into lines. Although it was a bit complicated, the weakest parts of those lines were clearly visible.
This is the terrible thing about passivity.
Coupled with the power of the Heart Sword, Lu Li combined with the two powerful weapons of invisible sword energy and insight into the flaw, and almost beat Yuan Jingtao to collapse.
Yuan Jingtao shouted angrily, finally unable to bear it anymore, he burst out his true energy again.
But this time, Lu Li also learned the lesson. Before he could explode his true energy, he took the initiative to activate the green robe's protection. A soft green light lit up on his body, and he resisted Yuan Jingtao's astonishing sword strike. After retreating, although he suffered some concussive impacts, he still bought enough time. The sword light was absorbed by the sword formation before it had time to explode with its most powerful power.
This breath of true energy undoubtedly relieved Lu Li from a great deal of pressure.
"Thank you, Mr. Yuan, for your generosity."
Lu Li let out a long laugh, and twirled his left hands together, causing the entire sword formation to freeze for a moment.
A terrifying coercion spread throughout the sword formation. Yuan Jingtao's expression changed. He raised his head in horror and looked at the sword light that covered the sky. He was almost so frightened that he wanted to take out the sword and swallow it.
But he immediately realized that Lu Li was deceiving him!
If the sword formation really had the ability to attack, why did he activate it now? Recalling that Lu Li had mentioned swallowing the sky many times before, Yuan Jingtao came to his senses and said coldly: "It turns out that your real goal is to swallow the sky."
Hearing this, Lu Li slowly lowered his left hand. The stagnant sword light returned to normal, and a look of pity appeared on his face. "It seems that I still can't fool Director Yuan."
Yuan Jingtao said indifferently: "You dare to covet the most important weapon of the country? Are you looking for death?"
"Compared to King Cang, this is not an unforgivable thought on my part, right?" Lu Li shrugged, "The most important weapon of the country is held by each of the nine palaces. I just want the swallowing sky in King Cang's hands. His Highness Prince Cang's target is the other eight palaces. When it comes to seeking death, he is more thorough in his search."
"Stop trying to use your words!" Yuan Jingtao was angry, not because of the disrespect in Lu Li's words, but because he had really almost taken out Tun Tian before.
He was frightened when he thought about the consequences of having his power absorbed by this sword formation if he really resorted to swallowing the sky against Lu Li.
"If you wait a little longer, maybe I will really fall into the trap!"
Yuan Jingtao held his sword at an angle and said indifferently: "Now that your target has been exposed, I will not give you this opportunity again."
Lu Li said with regret on his face, "It's true that I was anxious, but Mr. Yuan, you also made a mistake."
While speaking, Lu Li released the long sword in his hand, and an invisible force pulled the long sword into the air. Yuan Jingtao's pupils shrank and he said in shock: "How could..."
"I was just trying to scare you earlier. You kept staring at this long sword. It's really hard for me to do anything without using some tricks." Lu Li chuckled lightly, "General Manager Yuan is used to scheming with others. Have you forgotten? , could some of the things thrown out by others be poisonous?"
