On a spaceship, Jiang Cheng, standing among countless corpses, casually shook off all the blood on his sword, and then sheathed the sword.
Behind Jiang Cheng were several heavenly beings with different looks.
A Leopard Head Heavenly Man spoke: "Jiang Chengsang, there was news from Heiziye that with the cooperation of Orpa Mengxing and Fulalazixing and our undercover inside Chunyu, we successfully attacked four Chunyu, who escaped from the planet, has been wiped out by us on the way back! All the remaining four keys have been found!"
"Well, let's go back to the Tiandao Society. Keep in touch with our companions who are lurking in the Tiandao Society branches on various planets that are responsible for governing the gates. When we return to the Tiandao Society, the action will begin."
"Hi!"
"By the way..." After saying that, Jiang Cheng turned back to look at the heavenly beings and smiled softly, "The mask can be taken off now. You have worked hard all along."
…
A month passed in the blink of an eye, and one of several huge house-shaped ships slowly headed towards the earth.
"Jiang Chengsang is expected to arrive above the earth in ten hours. All the companions lurking in the branches of the Tiandao Association responsible for governing the gates on various planets have also made preparations."
"Well, let's give the order." Jiang Cheng nodded.
"And one more thing…"
"What's the matter?"
"We received news that the four planets successfully attacked by Chunyu under Xu Suo's command. The Altana Liberation Army was established with Wu Ling as the leader. The main ship is a flying bird ship equipped with weapons that can destroy the planets with one strike. There are also There are about four hundred medium-sized ships and countless small spaceships. According to the news, the other party also hired three major mercenary troops. This is some information we got at the first time, including their commanders."
Jiang Cheng took the stack of papers handed over by Hei Ziye and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Go and contact those partners."
"There is another very strange thing. Xu has never seemed to go out since he arrived in Chunyu, defeated the Chunyu Senate and took Chunyu under his command."
"Probably because someone is still fighting. But even if he sets off, it doesn't matter. I know exactly what he is thinking. The war he wants has been prepared for him."
"However, there is no existence on earth that can be regarded as a combat force. Except for some key figures of the Kaikai Group and the Shinsengumi Group, basically all have been... Mr. Gintoki is still in a coma. Mr. Katsura's anti-barbarian patriots and the Shinsengumi The situation of team selection is similar. The shogunate army is also now disintegrated, and there are not many imperial fans left. If war really comes... "
Looking at the information on the red-haired man named Yuan Xiang at the top of the stack of papers in his hand, Jiang Cheng replied calmly: "It doesn't matter, isn't their target the Heavenly Daoists? Then... send their target away Get in front of them.”
"you mean…"
"The simplest and crudest way to end the war. Do you understand?"
"...I understand." After a moment of silence, Heizi Ye responded.
"After the companions on each planet complete their missions, there is no need to wait for instructions or to regroup. Let them return directly to the earth. If I fail to completely annihilate the war, you will be able to command them who remain on the earth."
"… Hi."
…
Ten hours later.
"Jiang Chengsang, we are about to arrive above the earth. The elders have sent the specific hovering location of the headquarters and ask you to return immediately.
In addition, partners on a total of 738 planets have completed their tasks, dismantling the Tiandao Association responsible for guarding Huanglongmen from the inside, and the order to return to Earth has been issued. "
"Okay," Jiang Cheng stopped looking at the blue planet outside the window, "it's time to go meet those old guys, you stay here and wait."
"clear!"
…
Da da da…
At the headquarters of the Tiandaozhong, a house-shaped ship with invisibility function was hovering on the outer edge of the earth. Jiang Cheng, wearing that strange mask, was walking slowly towards the inside of the ship.
There were not many people on the spaceship, so it was hard to believe that this was the headquarters of Altana's Heavenly Daoists, who controlled the entire universe.
Jiang Cheng, who had just reached a certain location, stopped and the circular lifting platform under his feet slowly rose.
Buzz —
A few seconds later, Jiang Cheng arrived at the gathering place of Tiandao people that he had visited many times.
"Eagle, it's too slow." An elder said.
Jiang Cheng didn't answer.
"Come up quickly, you are the only one left." A certain elder urged with a bit of panic.
"Don't worry," the old man from before shook his head, then looked at Jiang Cheng and continued, "While you were chasing the escaping Xu in the universe, Altana of Planet Danhuang ran away out of control. The door and center were instantly destroyed. , the association branch in charge was also destroyed, and we suffered unprecedented losses."
"Is it an accident?" Jiang Cheng said calmly.
"It's not an accident." The old man shook his head, and his eyes under the bamboo hat stared directly at Jiang Cheng, "Before we lost control, we received a report that an unidentified army attacked the door. This is obviously Someone is resisting us!"
"Could it be that...you are doubting me?"
"The only ones who have the key are the twelve of us and you who joined us later. You are the only one who can move freely outside, and... the only ones who can compete with the army of a country are you and Xu. Xu has already If you defect and don’t have the key, then all that’s left is…”
"Hoo? Xu doesn't have a key? Who said that?" Jiang Cheng interrupted the elder's words in a calm tone.
The old man narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard Jiang Cheng's voice: "What did you find out in your investigation?"
"If you ask me, you might as well ask the old man here who turned green. Oh, I forgot, your faces are originally green."
"Stop being so pretentious and say it quickly." The old man's voice was a little serious.
"I thought someone would stand up and admit it when it came to this. I really don't want to die until I reach the Yellow River."
With that said, Jiang Cheng took out three haggard but still vital arms from his cloak, "The keys have been picked up from Xu's hands for you."
The old man suddenly lost his composure: "Who! Who gave the key to Xu! And if you say that, is it because Xu, who was subdued by the eagle, was able to escape because of the traitor?! Who is it?!"
"Maybe all of them except yourself, maybe even you. Maybe Xu has more than just these three keys."
"Put your hands up!"
After the old man fell silent, he realized that only five elders, including himself, raised their hands.
While the elder was in shock, Jiang Cheng spoke again: "I only recovered three of the seven keys I obtained. In other words... there may be more than one planet Danhuang that went berserk."
"War... war... the war is about to begin... Look what you have done! Why should you give the key to such a dangerous guy!"
"Maybe I was deceived, right? Like, "As long as you let me out and hand over the key, I will tell you how to be saved" or something like that... "
"What does it mean?" the old man asked at first. "What does it mean to be saved?"
"It seems that you haven't reached that stage yet, old man. Isn't it true that no one has come forward to explain the matter in person?" Jiang Cheng chuckled softly and said slowly in a deep voice, "Of course it's because of that person's blood. Has it already begun? Has your body begun to decay? Your body is filled with that man's blood and longs for eternal life. This is the price you need to pay for your endless desire. Filled with that man's blood Not only your arms, but also your legs and feet will eventually be broken, and your head will fall off. Until... your body will rot away and not a single bit will be left."
"How...how could it be! He clearly said that as long as we release him and give him the key, he will tell us how to be saved! Have we been deceived?!"
"Ah, I was deceived very simply. So it's not good to curl up in a place like this all the time. You know, health care product fraud related to the elderly happens almost every day on earth. If you watch the news often, Maybe you won’t be fooled. By the way, I once proposed putting a big TV here~”
"You just want to play games here!" A certain elder complained.
"Isn't it possible? I think older people will look much younger if they occasionally play with things that young people like."
"That's enough, Eagle. Now is not the time to argue about such nonsense!"
The old man spoke at first, and showed a little helplessness, saying: "We can agree to you becoming the Thirteenth Elder, firstly, because you are the only one who can suppress Xu, and secondly, we believe that you have the ability to lead the Heavenly Dao people, and I believe that you will be better than us. The old man did better. Let’s talk about what to do now. There is also the upcoming war. If it were you..."
"Ah, ah, ah, ah~ Are the elderly nowadays so shameless? Are you ready to let young people wipe your butts if you are incontinent?"
"As long as you find a way to resolve these two incidents, the command of all association branches on planets with gates can be transferred to you, and we...can hand over all power and retreat behind the scenes."
"Stop joking! How can you give that kind of thing to him!"
"Is he your illegitimate child?!"
"Shut up, traitors!" the elder shouted loudly.
"It is indeed a very tempting offer, but... we will talk about this later." After speaking, Jiang Cheng raised his head and looked at the elders above him, "It is indeed abominable to say that Xu deceived you, but... I But I do have a solution to your pain. Do you want to know?"
"What did you say?!"
"is that true?!"
"Of course, I'm different from those who extort health care products." Jiang Cheng nodded, then casually threw the three keys in his hand into the air and then grasped the mouth of the knife at his waist.
A few imperceptible sword lights flashed, and the three "keys" broke into several pieces and fell to the ground.
"What are you doing?!"
"That's the key that was finally found!"
"Enough is enough, you brat!"
"I just want to tell you my method," Jiang Cheng said, picking up a hand from the ground and pointing his palm towards everyone, "See? It disappeared completely."
"Wha...what?!"
"You...you can actually terminate that immortal arm!"
"How...how did you do it!"
Jiang Cheng shook his shoulders slightly: "Who knows? Then, choose. Whether to live in pain forever, or choose to end the pain and die, I only have this one chance here."
