Wu Ling Lihuo, who was guarding Yuan Jingtao, immediately noticed Lu Li's movements and showed a ferocious expression, followed by several deep roars.
"Lu Li, don't waste your efforts."
Although Yuan Jingtao's bones were too broken to move, Li Huo's early warning made him aware of Lu Li's thoughts, and he said with difficulty: "Even if you crawl to my side, do you still have the strength to kill me?"
"Manager Yuan, if you don't die today, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well in the future."
Lu Li moved his shoulders as hard as he could, crawling towards Yuan Jingtao inch by inch, and whispered: "You have to try anything to know the result. Will I know if I can kill you after I return from the trial?"
After saying this, Lu Li's energy that he had saved up for a long time was almost completely exhausted. There was a slight cracking sound in the bones of his shoulder. It was obvious that his injury was not much easier than Yuan Jingtao's.
Both of them were almost disabled now, but Lu Li's physical points finally took advantage, and he quickly recovered his strength and continued to climb towards Yuan Jingtao.
Seeing Lu Li continue to close the distance, Li Huo let out a warning roar, and a layer of black and red flames ignited on his limbs.
The martial spirit and its master are almost one and the same. If the martial spirit dies, it can be recuperated and resurrected. If the master is killed, the martial spirit can only dissipate between heaven and earth. The key to this determines certain judgments between life and death between martial spirits and warriors.
Limited by Yuan Jingtao's injury, Li Huo could not exert its full strength, but it did not hesitate to stimulate its own essence. If Lu Li really dared to step forward, it would burn the threat of Lu Li alive even if his foundation was damaged.
"Little thing, he's not that big, but he has quite a fierce temper." Lu Li raised his head, looked at Li Huo for a moment, and then stopped silently.
Li Huo did not dissipate the flames that looked very unpleasant to him. He was covered in fire and stared at Lu Li warily.
Lu Li quietly opened his Exploration Eye and found that its current state was at the end of its power, its spiritual radiance was getting weaker and weaker, and its points had dropped to about 600. He couldn't help but feel pain in his heart: "Don't fight me so hard, if you can't earn back these points. , I lost this battle today.”
"600 points is better than nothing."
As if to appease Li Huo, Lu Li stopped completely and stopped making any threatening moves.
In this battle, just to build the sword array, he bought a box of jade coins, plus the lost 'Snow-cutting Sword Intent', and the passive skills specially strengthened to deal with Yuan Jingtao. The total value of these things is definitely more than thousands of points.
If he couldn't even recover the points from Yuan Jingtao's martial spirit, after this battle, Lu Li knew that he would be completely bankrupt.
"Manager Yuan, please tell your martial spirit to be calm. It scares me so much. Who knows if I will trigger the sword formation to die with you?"
Lu Li didn't want his points to go away, so he immediately started negotiating with Yuan Jingtao.
"Haha, as long as you don't come close, Li Huo will not attack you." Yuan Jingtao said with a smile: "Moreover, after exploding that long sword, will you still be able to activate this sword array?" ?”
"That long sword should be the formation eye, right? Coupled with the formation base made of thirty-six Origin Woods, Prince Yan's Mansion is really willing to spend money to kill me."
After saying this, Yuan Jingtao raised his eyebrows mockingly, "Do you regret now that you handed over such a big killer weapon as the Zhenguojin into the hands of Prince Yan's palace?"
"As expected, Chief Yuan is still obsessed with Zhenguo Jin." Lu Li laughed, "Is His Highness Cang Prince very short of money?"
Yuan Jingtao snorted coldly: "His Royal Highness Cang Wang only cherishes his talent. He thinks that if a talent like you stays in Prince Yan's palace, it will only bury your ability. No matter how powerful Prince Yan is, she is just a woman. Her scope is too small, and her vision is even worse. Shallow. If you had not given the Zhenguo Gold to King Yan, but to His Highness Prince Cang, with the gold-absorbing ability of the Zhenguo Gold, we would have been able to build an invincible army now, enter the palace, and conquer Mu That stupid and unscrupulous guy dethroned the throne!"
Yuan Jingtao seemed to get more and more excited as he talked, and even coughed up a mouthful of blood mixed with internal organs fragments.
This was the first time that Lu Li heard someone address the Holy Kingdom Emperor by his real name. After a moment of silence, he asked: "What's the difference between him being the emperor and Cang Wang being the emperor? Although the Tiantian Holy Kingdom can't be said to be powerful at the moment, But it can be considered a peaceful and prosperous age, and everyone can live in peace, isn’t that good?”
"Do you have to cause turmoil, cause chaos, and then give Jitian Demon Kingdom an advantage to be happy?"
Lu Li's two words can be regarded as coming from the bottom of his heart.
Even if he doesn't have a deep understanding of the Holy Kingdom Emperor, as long as he thinks of the boundless sea of monsters in Daxue State and the sea god general who is so powerful that even Snow Lord cannot defeat him, he will sincerely think that King Cang This kind of person's idea is too stupid. Even if they really didn't know the situation in the Snow State, the threat from the Heavenly Demon Kingdom was imminent. At such a critical moment, Lu Li couldn't imagine how stupid he was to still think about fighting for the imperial power.
"Peaceful times?"
Yuan Jingtao muttered silently twice, then suddenly said: "Do you think the current Holy Kingdom of Swallowing Heaven deserves the words "peace and prosperity"?"
Before Lu Li could answer, Yuan Jingtao said in a deep voice: "Mu Jing is fatuous and cowardly. Faced with the provocation of the Jitian Demon Kingdom, he can even send his own sister, the prince of the Swallowing Heaven Holy Kingdom, for marriage. The Jitian Demon Kingdom's He knew clearly that the envoys were causing trouble in the imperial capital, but because he did not dare to start a war, he repeatedly tolerated the small actions of those people. He even used nepotism in the court and promoted an incompetent waste like Lin Wangbei to the marshal of the country. , has long laid the foundation for the destruction of the Holy Kingdom! The peace you see is just a whitewash of peace! Once the war breaks out, the current Heaven-Swallowing Holy Kingdom will not be able to resist at all, and will be like a weak ant and be defeated by the Heavenly Demon. The country is crushed!"
"If you don't pull this faint king down from the throne and let him continue to control the Heaven-Swallowing Holy Kingdom, do you know how many people will die?"
Yuan Jingtao smiled sadly: "The peaceful and prosperous age you think is just a trick of those old guys. Leave the imperial capital and go to other state capitals to take a look. You will see that this dynasty has long been rotten at the root. But Mu Jing has no courage. , and he has no courage to change all this, because he knows very well that once the interests of those people are touched, the entire Holy Kingdom will completely collapse."
"Does Prince Cang dare to do such a thing?" Lu Li chuckled, but did not argue with Yuan Jingtao.
Everyone holds different opinions on this kind of matter, and there is no point in continuing the debate.
But from Yuan Jingtao's words, Lu Li still heard a hint of sadness and anger.
Perhaps in his heart, he really cared about the Holy Kingdom of Devouring Heaven.
"Of course." Yuan Jingtao held Tuntian in his hand, and it became increasingly difficult to recover his breath, but he held on and said: "No, it should be said that in this Holy Kingdom of Tuntian, no one except His Highness Cang King can do it. This matter. Even if another prince succeeds to the throne, it will just be replaced by another Mu Jing to control the imperial power, and there will be no change at all."
"But only His Highness Cang Wang is different."
Yuan Jingtao's voice gradually became more enthusiastic, "If His Highness sits in that position, he will definitely be able to sweep away the decadent atmosphere left by Mu Jing."
Hearing his fanatical voice, Lu Li remained silent, already defining him as a lunatic who had lost his mind.
"No matter who sat in that position, they had great ambitions. But once they truly grasped the imperial power... the human heart cannot withstand the test."
Lu Li said this meaningfully, and before Yuan Jingtao could refute, an extremely harsh sound broke through the air from the side.
Buzz!
The stream of light flew straight and pierced Yuan Jingtao's head!
"puff!"
The moment the flying sword was released, Lu Li's vision went dark, blood flowed from his eyes, nose, and even ears, and he even vomited black blood from his mouth.
He forced the sword to fly, but received an extremely strong backlash. Even vision was lost at this moment.
"Did you hit it?"
Lu Li endured the tearing pain all over his body and pressed his forehead against the ground, this thought flashing through his mind.
He was not sure whether the flying sword hit him just now, but Yuan Jingtao's aura had indeed disappeared.
Until a blurry shadow appeared in front of his eyes and his vision gradually recovered, Lu Li was about to confirm Yuan Jingtao's life and death, but his heart gradually sank as the scene before him began.
