King of Assassins

Chapter 652: Not a pity

Views:

Boom boom boom…

The ground of Shenwang City began to shake violently, and the affected area became larger and larger.

Including the church, everything began to shake and sway in the earthquake.

Most of the power of Shui Yunlan's earth-shattering attack fell on the God King Island.

The damage and impact of the sword light on the strata were also released in the form of earthquakes.

The center of the sword light was hit, and the Paradise Palace collapsed and shattered first, and the surrounding huge buildings also collapsed while shaking.

The energy of the earthquake was getting stronger and stronger, and the ground was like boiling water, constantly heaving and undulating.

Shui Yunlan also realized that the situation was not good, but it was easy to destroy it. A violent blow was enough.

She wanted to undo the damage, but she didn't have the ability.

If the underground sword energy were to be fully released, I'm afraid all the people in Shenwang City would be shocked to death.

At the critical moment, holy light suddenly radiated from above the temple, and the silver holy light continued to spread outwards.

Wherever the holy light passed, the violently shaking ground immediately returned to calm.

In the blink of an eye, the silver holy light covered the entire God King Island. The horrific earthquake disappeared completely under the soothing of the holy light.

Gao Xuan was also a little surprised that the Sea Emperor Star Temple had such advanced energy operation. Moreover, Hai Zhen was willing to help break the earthquake, which was not easy.

Shui Yunlan was also obviously relieved. If the Shenwang City was really destroyed, at least hundreds of millions of people would die.

This number is very scary. Although she comes from a top family, she can't kill so many people just for her own selfishness.

She didn't know how to explain the killing of Jin Hongtao and others.

Fortunately, the Poseidon Temple played its due role at the critical moment.

Shui Yunlan glanced at Gao Xuan and said, "Let's go back."

After this incident, Shui Yunlan indeed looked up to Gao Xuan.

Not to mention anything else, just by directly locking onto the evil god's demon clone, you can see Gao Xuan's ability.

As for the lurking Hai Ting, the Holy Hall did not find anything unusual, but it could not be blamed on Gao Xuan.

Gao Xuan even defeated Jin Hongtao alone, which also shows his ability.

Shui Yunlan asked herself, if she didn't use the Xuanming Sword, it would be difficult to defeat Jin Hongtao. But there were not many ways to penetrate the Xuanjin Holy Armor on him.

Shui Yunlan was in a bad mood and didn't want to talk.

Gao Xuan and Yuan Youyuan followed behind, and the two of them kept communicating, mainly because Yuan Youyuan was very curious about how Gao Xuan defeated Jin Hongtao.

"Nothing, I just upgraded the Demon-Splitting Arm Blade to the third rank."

Gao Xuan said: "As long as we can break the black gold armor, it will be easy to defeat Jin Hongtao."

"Ah, when did you upgrade the Demon-Splitting Arm Blade!"

Yuan Youyuan was greatly shocked. This was a third-grade magical weapon. Could Gao Xuan refine a third-grade magical weapon? Even a master of refining might not have this ability.

Gao Xuan briefly told Yuan Youyuan about the matter. There was no need to keep it secret from Yuan Youyuan.

This made Yuan Youyuan extremely envious, but unfortunately, she couldn't afford the Red Sun Golden Crystal. Moreover, it didn't match the magic weapon she had. It was useless to be envious.

After today's brutal battle, Yuan Youyuan also had an urgent urge to upgrade.

Shui Yunhao, a child of a prominent family, with his own sister to protect him, could still die at any moment.

In the past, she relied on Gao Xuan's protection and was not very enthusiastic about increasing her strength. Now she found that her own strength was the most reliable.

When you rely on others, there will always be times when you can't rely on them.

Gao Xuan appreciated her idea. This year of leisure also greatly reduced Yuan Youyuan's spirit. She was not even twenty years old yet, and she didn't have much ambition.

For her personally, this is not a good thing.

When Gao Xuan and the others returned to the church, Hai Zhen was already waiting at the gate.

Without waiting for Haizhen to speak, Shui Yunlan attacked first. She shouted, "Haiting is an evil spirit, don't you know?"

Haizhen was shocked: "Sir, is there any misunderstanding?"

Shui Yunlan sneered: "Hai Ting approached us as a holy warrior, and took advantage of our unpreparedness to defile my colleagues with the power of the evil god. Now, seven of my colleagues have died in battle, including my brother. What do you say?"

Haizhen was shocked and puzzled. She sighed repeatedly: "How could it be, how could it be?"

"Let me ask you again, why didn't you come to support us when we were fighting the evil god?"

The battle took place only two hundred kilometers away from the holy temple. For a Jindan cultivator, they could reach the battlefield in an instant.

But after more than ten minutes of fighting, the temple still had no response. This was obviously a problem.

Haizhen said helplessly: "Just now, the evil god Shadow came to harass us and killed three holy warriors. I must guard the temple..."

Shui Yunlan was silent. Haizhen didn't have the guts to lie about such a big thing. Besides, there were all kinds of surveillance cameras in the temple, and the battle scenes would be recorded. Lying was useless.

She said with a sullen face: "You still have to give me an explanation about Haiting's matter..."

Today's battle was too brutal. Shui Yunlan must report it immediately and find a reasonable explanation.

After such a big incident, someone has to be blamed.

Shui Yunlan had no intention of competing with Hai Zhen at the moment. As long as Hai Zhen was not an evil god, everything would be fine.

After returning to the room, Shui Yunlan used the temple's communication channel to contact her family elder Shui Qingguang and told him the whole story of the battle.

She also copied the battle records left in her brain computer and asked her elders to help analyze them.

Shui Qingguang is a super-level golden warrior, but unfortunately, he was not able to enter the ranks of the thirty-six divine envoys.

That's right. The identity of a super-class golden expert is enough to make Shui Qingguang transcendent and possess enormous power.

In terms of seniority, Shui Qingguang should be Shui Yunlan's great-aunt. Shui Yunlan was also appreciated by Shui Qingguang, which enabled her to obtain family resources and step by step reach her current position.

The first time he carried out an important mission alone, such a big incident happened and even his own brother was killed. Shui Yunlan felt extremely sad.

But since this was such a big mess, she had to deal with it and now she could only stay calm.

Shui Qingguang watched the battle video and sighed in his heart.

Shui Yunlan made many mistakes in this sudden battle. When she found that something was wrong, she should have evacuated immediately.

Shui Yunlan refused to leave and continued to fight with the enemy. Then, she hesitated and hesitated, which led to a disaster.

Of course, Shui Yunlan couldn't be blamed entirely. After all, she was young and inexperienced. She didn't have the guts to deal with Jin Hongtao casually.

Now things are in a mess, but there is no one to blame.

The only problem in this battle was Yuan Youyuan, who never participated in the battle and made almost no contribution.

However, Yuan Youyuan has low ability and status. It is meaningless to put the blame on her.

In fact, Yuan Youyuan did not make any contribution, but he did not hinder the battle. His performance was acceptable.

Shui Qingguang thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry, I'll go talk to the headquarters. I'll go and comfort the Jin and Tu families. They behaved improperly and were caught by the evil god to pollute their souls. That's because they are incompetent, so you can't blame them..."

Shui Qingguang said: "At this point, you have no choice but to atone for your sins. Black Tiger is very capable, you can take him and kill all the remaining evil gods and completely put an end to the evil god chaos on Poseidon Star. Then I can speak for you."

"Yes, I will try my best."

Shui Yunlan calmed down now. His brother was dead, so he couldn't mess up this matter. Otherwise, Shui Yunhao's death would be in vain.

"Black Tiger is very capable, it's a pity that Huo Wuming spotted him first."

Shui Qingguang reminded Shui Yunlan: "If you want to use Black Tiger, you should build good relationships with him. Don't put on airs."

"I know."

After shutting down the communication, Shui Yunlan also breathed a sigh of relief. With her aunt standing up for her, the impact of this incident would be minimized.

As long as she kills the remaining evil gods, she can give an explanation to the headquarters.

Shui Yunlan calmed down, analyzed the matter over and over again, and became more and more certain of Gao Xuan's power.

This person is really deep-minded. I'm afraid he noticed that something was wrong with Hai Ting, but he kept it to himself.

Jin Hongtao and others were arrogant and self-righteous. As a result, they were courting their own death.

Thinking back on the entire battle, Shui Yunlan discovered that even at the most critical moment, Gao Xuan was able to handle it with ease.

No wonder my aunt praised him as a great man!

The next action requires Gao Xuan's cooperation, so that she has a chance to quell the rebellion of the evil god of Poseidon.

Shui Yunlan really wanted to talk to Gao Xuan, but considering that the time was not right, she forced herself to suppress the urge to chat.

After waiting for ten hours, Shui Yunlan finally took the initiative to go to Gao Xuan's house.

After entering the room, Shui Yunlan did not hide anything. She said to Gao Xuan straight away: "This incident caused a big stir and caused extremely bad consequences. Of course, I have to bear most of the responsibility."

She said to Gao Xuan: "Although you are not responsible, as a team member, you will definitely be blamed for this. The only solution is for us to completely eradicate the evil god of Poseidon and solve the problem."

Shui Yunlan said: "With this achievement, we can report back to the mission. You can also get enough points."

Gao Xuan nodded: "That's right. I will fully cooperate with you."

Shui Yunlan was delighted. She was afraid that Gao Xuan would refuse. Gao Xuan was so sensible and cooperative, so things would be easier.

"Okay, that's all you need to say. I will never treat you unfairly. All the divine crystals I earn will be split 50-50."

Shui Yunlan is also very generous. As the team leader, she naturally enjoys 30% of all the gains made by team members.

In addition, she was the main force in the battle, so it was indeed very generous of her to be willing to give 50% to Gao Xuan.

Gao Xuan nodded. There was no need to worry about such things. He just needed to collect enough points to subscribe to the secret method.

After Shui Yunlan left, Yuan Youyuan was a little dissatisfied: "This woman completely treats me as if I don't exist. She split it 50-50 with you, but she didn't even give me a little bit."

Gao Xuan laughed loudly: "It's okay, I'll give you 20% of mine."

"I don't want your charity."

Yuan Youyuan said somewhat frustratedly: "I want to make a living on my own ability."

"Appearance is also a kind of strength, and being sexy and cute is also a kind of value."

Gao Xuan waved his hand and said, "If you have served me well, I will definitely give you a reward..."

"Asshole, I'm feeling miserable and you're still making fun of me."

Yuan Youyuan thought for a moment and said, "I also want a third-grade magic weapon."

"It won't be of much use to you."

Gao Xuan said: "You should concentrate on your cultivation and form the golden elixir as soon as possible."

“It’s not that easy…” Although Yuan Youyuan has reached the top level of foundation building, she feels extremely far away from the golden elixir, which makes her very frustrated.

The key point is that compared with Gao Xuan, she is far inferior to Gao Xuan in every aspect. This makes her strongly doubt herself.

Gao Xuan comforted him: "You can't compare to me, but you can't compare to me. I am a peerless genius that has not appeared in thousands of years..."

"Look at what you can do..."

Shui Yunlan downplayed the incident, but the Supervisory Headquarters reacted strongly. On the same day, a gold belt supervisor, Jin Yijun, came to the Sea Emperor Star Temple.

Jin Yijun was extremely arrogant and domineering. In order to find out the truth, all members of the temple, including Haizhen, were forced to swear an oath in front of the statue of the Divine Emperor to prove themselves.

Shui Yunlan, Gao Xuan and Yuan Youyuan certainly couldn't escape either.

Jin Yijun questioned him for a full ten minutes before he was satisfied.

Afterwards, Jin Yijun forcibly tested everyone's divine power seeds to determine their spiritual state.

Gao Xuan was no exception. Fortunately, he had already refined the divine rune seed long ago. Although he did not practice it seriously, it was more than enough to deal with Jin Yijun.

Jin Yijun conducted a thorough investigation for two days but did not find any problems, so he left with his team.

Shui Yunlan, Gao Xuan and Yuan Youyuan continued to stay and carry out the mission.

Shadow, Scarlet Flame, Red Snake, Three-headed Dog, Iron Demon, these evil gods were killed one by one by Shui Yunlan.

Among these evil gods, Iron Demon was the strongest, with a body of steel. Shui Yunlan used the Mysterious Sword to slash three times before he killed Iron Demon.

Of course, the Iron Demon's Baihe City was also completely destroyed by the Mysterious Sword. This battle killed at least 200 million people...

As a result, Shui Yunlan vomited blood and fainted on the spot. It took him 20 days to recover.

These evil gods each have their own abilities, but they were locked in place by Gao Xuan and had almost no power to resist the Xuanming Sword.

The power of cyberspace and the blessing of magical weapons are really not comparable to those of these evil gods.

After all, the evil gods are beings from another dimension, and they follow an evil path. Even if they have a special divine domain, it is nothing compared to the human cultivation system that has lasted for thousands of years.

After recovering from his injuries, Shui Yunlan took Gao Xuan and Yuan Youyuan and set out again. Only the last thumb-sized demon spirit was left among the seven evil gods.

As long as they kill this evil god, they can go home and return to Xianyang Star.

As for the evil god hiding behind the scenes, it has always been a guess and there is no substantial evidence.

Which evil god killed the warrior leader Xiao Yu remains a mystery.

Jin Yijun interrogated everyone in the Sea Emperor Star Temple, and everyone swore an oath in front of the statue of the God Emperor to prove themselves. He used all the necessary means, but found no problems.

These prove that Hai Ting's possession by the evil god was an isolated incident, and the Poseidon Temple did not deteriorate.

Since Jin Yijun couldn't find the problem, Shui Yunlan naturally wouldn't waste time and energy on him. Now, as long as she dealt with the seven evil gods, her mission would be completed.

Gao Xuan drove the flying ship to Golden City, the largest city in the western hemisphere of Poseidon Star.

In the past thousand years, the economy of Poseidon has not only not developed, but has been declining. The living standards of the lower classes have been declining, and in this environment, the lives of the lower classes have become increasingly chaotic.

Because abiding by the rules requires a stable life. If the life is unstable, all the rules become constraints. People who follow the rules will inevitably be eliminated first in a chaotic life.

The central star region also provides the alien region with antimatter energy furnaces, including the most advanced automatic planting technology, etc., to ensure that the alien region can feed enough people.

The chaotic environment, large population and poor resources have made the alien domain a breeding ground for evil gods.

The Golden City is a typical alien city. The city center is managed by elites and controls basic resources for survival such as energy and food.

The lower class of the poor are spread across every area of the city, struggling to survive.

Looking down from the sky, the central area of the Golden City was brightly lit and prosperous. Around the central city, a large number of dilapidated buildings were piled together randomly, extremely disorderly, like randomly stacked Lego blocks, stretching for dozens of kilometers.

The sharp contrast between the central area and the surrounding areas is like the difference between heaven and hell.

"It is said that this golden city has a population of 700 million. Can you imagine..."

Yuan Youyuan looked at the city below and sighed. Although the Golden City was very large, covering an area of 2,000 square kilometers, there were more than 700 million people in this area, which was simply terrifying.

She couldn't imagine how 700 million people could survive in such a crowded and cramped space with such backward urban living facilities.

Gao Xuan was silent. He had come to this city for tourism a thousand years ago, together with Helen.

At that time, the Golden City was full of Western-style palace buildings, with exaggerated and gorgeous styles. Whether tourists or residents, they were all dressed neatly, with smiles on their faces and polite to others.

Although the smiles were all polite, the people here were very confident, even with a bit of elegance cultivated over thousands of years.

A thousand years later, this place is like hell.

Seeing the haggard pedestrians on the street, Gao Xuan felt like he had returned to the underworld and saw those evil ghosts.

Although they are all life, they lack vitality.

Shui Yunlan didn't care about these things at all. The lower-class people were like pigs and sheep, and were not considered human beings in her eyes.

She said calmly: "The alien region is originally a large livestock farm, and its only purpose is to breed evil gods. Don't treat these people as your own kind."

Yuan Youyuan looked at Shui Yunlan in shock. She actually knew the fact in her heart, but Shui Yunlan said it so lightly that it was still hard for her to accept it.

After all, she was born in an alien star region. Although she was from an aristocratic family, she could not treat the lower classes as pigs and sheep like Shui Yunlan did.

Shui Yunlan was in a bad mood, and she was too lazy to comfort Yuan Youyuan. She was just a woman from a low-class family in the outer star domain. If it weren't for Gao Xuan, she would only be treated as a plaything in the central star domain. What qualifications did she have to sit side by side with her

Shui Yunlan regretted what she said. Gao Xuan was born in the lower class of the alien domain, and saying this was too offensive to Gao Xuan.

But the words have been said and cannot be taken back. If I explain further, it will seem too deliberate.

Shui Yunlan glanced at Gao Xuan calmly. Gao Xuan looked calm, his eyes dark and still, as if he didn't hear anything.

She couldn't help but sigh in her heart. This man was always so deep. To be honest, she really didn't like this kind of deepness.

She would rather Gao Xuan was angry, at least she could see his emotional fluctuations.

None of the three spoke, and the atmosphere in the cabin was a little awkward.

Yuan Youyuan hugged Gao Xuan's arm and put her head on Gao Xuan's shoulder. She suddenly understood that no matter how friendly Shui Yunlan had been to her before, in Shui Yunlan's eyes, she was at the bottom.

This made her very angry and depressed. Here, Gao Xuan was her only support. Only by holding Gao Xuan could she feel safe.

Gao Xuan sensed Yuan Youyuan's depression, and he gently touched Yuan Youyuan's long hair.

Yuan Youyuan was in a good mood, and she pursed her soft lips and kissed Gao Xuan gently. Gao Xuan and Yuan Youyuan smiled at each other, their hearts filled with satisfaction and joy.

Yuan Youyuan's interaction with Gua was not full of eroticism, but warm and sweet. Shui Yunlan, who was watching from the sidelines, felt very uncomfortable.

In her entire life, no matter how close she was to someone, she had never enjoyed such a warm and sweet feeling.

Shui Yunlan closed her eyes and stopped looking at the couple.

Fortunately, after a while, Shui Yunlan heard Gao Xuan say, "We're here."

Three people flew down from the sky on the holy armor and came to the river bank.

To be precise, this should be a sewage drainage channel. The water flowing out of the huge pipe is turbid, black and red, and emits a strong stench.

The water here not only smells bad, it is also poisonous. The vegetation on both sides of the canal is all withered and yellow, and some trees are even twisted and deformed.

The most eye-catching thing is the flowers growing on the shore. These black and red flowers are somewhat like roses, but more gorgeous. However, these petals emit a strong odor.

A thumb-sized translucent little man floated above the black and red flowers. The little man wore a blue skirt, with two pairs of transparent butterfly wings on his back, golden hair, blue eyes, and exquisite facial features, looking extremely beautiful.

This little man's eyes and eyebrows look particularly pure, which is in sharp contrast to the foul smelling environment here.

Shui Yunlan had heard of the thumb spirit, but this was the first time she had seen one. She couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. This little person was so beautiful. She even felt a strong pity and love for him, and wanted to take him home as a pet.

Shui Yunlan immediately became aware that something was wrong. How could she have such thoughts about an evil god? She was simply crazy.

But she did not sense any charming power, and her soul showed no signs of being interfered with by any external force.

Yuan Youyuan didn't have as many thoughts as Shui Yunlan. She exclaimed, "Wow, so cute."

But she did not lose her mind and added: "It's a pity that he is an evil god."

The thumb demon smiled sweetly at Yuan Youyuan: "You humans are always full of malice towards other races. The lives from the negative space are not all evil and chaotic. In the words of your civilization, the universe is divided into yin and yang, there is both good and evil, there is both light and shadow."

She stopped smiling and said seriously, "Negative space is as vast as the positive universe, with countless lives. How can we define all life with a very narrow view? This is itself a kind of ignorance."

Shui Yunlan nodded: "You are right. But you still have to die!"

"etc."

Seeing Shui Yunlan about to take action, the Thumb Spirit stretched out her hand to signal Shui Yunlan not to rush into action. She said, "I have 500 million believers. I am their only spiritual beacon, giving them light and hope."

"so what?"

Shui Yunlan was already reciting the spell silently, preparing to activate the Xuanming Sword. As for what the thumb demon said, it was meaningless to her.

The Thumb Spirit was silent for a moment and said, "My spirit is connected to the hearts of the five hundred million. If I die, they will die too."

"so what!"

Shui Yunlan repeated the same four words again with a hint of coldness and determination.

The thumb demon nodded slightly: "I see. I understand."

"Heretics, die."

Shui Yunlan activated the Xuanming Sword, and a deep blue sword light slashed down from the sky.

The deep blue sword light became stronger and stronger, and when it slashed in front of the thumb-sized demon spirit, it had turned into a huge lightsaber a kilometer long.

The cold sword intent of the Mysterious Sword completely froze the sewage channel nearby, and the flowers, plants and trees were covered with a layer of white frost. The molecules of the strong smell were frozen, and the stench disappeared in an instant.

In this cold world, everything looks whiter and cleaner; even the dirty and smelly sewage has a twisted, abstract, fantastic beauty.

Especially the black and red flowers, which no longer have the stench and have a touch of white frost, look particularly gorgeous.

The thumb-thumb demon spirit did not look at the Xuanming Sword that was falling from the sky. Her beautiful and pure blue eyes stared at the black and red flowers thoughtfully.

She said to Shui Yunlan: "Do you know that the seeds of this flower come from the negative space, and its original name is the Flower of Light. It can only bloom in the pure and beautiful rainbow light. In this world, it needs rotten soil and smelly sewage to be watered in order to grow and bloom."

The Xuanming Sword fell so quickly, but the thumb-sized demon had time to tell the origin of the flower of light.

At this moment, time seemed to freeze, with only the sound of the thumb spirit dancing and flowing in the frozen time.

Shui Yunlan felt the worst. Her soul resonated with the Xuanming Sword. The rune seeds pushed the endless source of power to transform into sword light, and it seemed that everything in the world could be cut through.

But at this moment, she had to listen to the thumb spirit and there was nothing she could do about it.

This strange magic also made Shui Yunlan alert and vigilant.

She could only be thankful that the thumb spirit could not move and could only transmit information through sound, so she could not really interfere with the battle.

The thumb spirit continued, "According to your culture, I call this flower the black lotus. It grows out of the mud but remains unstained. Although its aura is ugly, its appearance is beautiful. No matter how the outside world views it, it just keeps growing and blooming."

The thumb spirit landed on a black lotus flower and gently stroked the petals covered with white frost. She sighed, "A flower like this is harmless to people and the world. Why do you want to destroy it?"

Shui Yunlan was shocked to see that the thumb spirit could move freely.

The Xuanming sword light that fell from the sky was still falling inch by inch. Compared with the thumb spirit that moved freely, the Xuanming sword was as slow as a snail.

Shui Yunlan was very afraid that the thumb demon would counterattack, and even more afraid that it would take the opportunity to escape.

The thumb demon seemed to know what Shui Yunlan was thinking. She said to Shui Yunlan, "In my divine domain, I can slow down time, but it only works for me. Once it interferes with each other, the divine domain will lose its effect. I can't run away, so don't worry."

She sighed slowly: "I will die eventually, a moment earlier or later is just a matter of time. You don't have to use so much force to kill me, and make such a big scene. It's unnecessary."

As he spoke, the Thumb Spirit slowly closed his eyes. "The mission is accomplished. I can enter eternal rest. This is not bad. It's a pity for these black lotuses and the five hundred million suffering lives. What a pity..."

With a faint sigh, the bound time was suddenly released, and the slowly falling Xuanming Sword suddenly slashed at the thumb-sized demon spirit.

In the deep blue sword light, the thumb-sized demon spirit turned into specks of crystal light and shattered. When the sword light dissipated, a deep crack several thousand meters long appeared on the ground.

The thumb-sized demon spirit left behind a emerald green divine crystal, which was only the size of a grain of rice, but it shone with divine light and radiated an incomparably pure aura of divine power.

“Second-grade divine crystal!”

Shui Yunlan was both surprised and happy. She was surprised that the thumb demon spirit was killed without any resistance. She was happy that it actually condensed into a second-grade divine crystal. This evil god was really powerful.

Gao Xuan didn't pay attention to the divine crystal. He noticed that most of the life energy around him disappeared in an instant.

At least 80% of the population of the entire Golden City was lost when the Thumb Demon Spirit died.

The life forces of hundreds of millions of people were instantly extinguished on a large scale. This atmosphere made Gao Xuan feel very uncomfortable.

The thumb demon spirit did not lie, and hundreds of millions of believers were killed along with her.

This kind of divine power transformation that allows one to share life and death was also the first time Gao Xuan had seen it.

Shui Yunlan also noticed that a large amount of life energy around them suddenly disappeared. She snorted, "The evil god is really hateful. He actually dragged so many people to death with him!"

She paused and then said calmly: "It's no pity to kill as many rubbish as believe in evil gods..."
