Evil Emperor Zun

Chapter 1078 Countdown

When Yan Yueque was arguing with Qinglan, she suddenly heard a commotion outside the door, it was Shi Jiutian and others who had climbed the tower.

"Shi Jiutian said that he seemed to have discovered the secret of the golden holy sword just now, and wanted everyone to help him as a staff officer." Cen Ling explained from the side.

Shi Jiutian nodded slightly: "I found that this sword seems to be particularly sensitive to ferocious beasts."

"Earlier, I fought against the group of beasts led by Meng Xishan. For some reason, this sword suddenly became extremely hot—"

At that time, he felt that within the sword body, there was a kind of energy penetrating his whole body, penetrating through his meridians and blood vessels.And his hand was almost automatically raised, and he stabbed towards the opposite group of beasts.

He didn't even need to deliberately use his spiritual power to display some basic spiritual skills, as if the sword was leading him to fight.

This feeling is somewhat similar to when he first got the Holy Sword in Geng City and was manipulated by it, but this time he can also maintain his own consciousness.His soul merged with the sword spirit, felt its anger, and responded to its fighting spirit!

Yes... it's anger.He could feel that when he held the sword, there was a strong anger flowing along with the surging source of power.It was as if the former owner of that sword had some unresolved vendetta with these beasts!

Moreover, those ferocious beasts are also somewhat afraid of his sword, and they will retreat consciously.And when the golden holy sword hits their bodies, the sword body also seems to contain some kind of corrosive substance, which can crack their special armor, with additional damage and so on.

This is such a long time, the golden holy sword has once again shown its uniqueness.With this, he indeed killed a large number of beasts, until Meng Xishan was enraged, and he rushed up to fight him...

Later, he also tested it with other enemies, but there was no similar reaction.This can be said to be a clue, but it is also an unsolved mystery.

"It only responds to ferocious beasts—" Listening to his narration, Ge Shuchong crossed his arms gloatingly and dangled back and forth in front of him, "Could it be that the former owner of this sword was a hunter?"

Shi Jiutian stared displeasedly: "A dog can't spit out ivory!"

Ge Shuchong suddenly became furious: "Who are you calling a dog!" Thanks to the persuasive dissuasion of the trial practitioners nearby, an internal fight that was about to be triggered in the control room was avoided.

However, such a statement does not have any value of acceptance.Hunting with such a sword is like killing a chicken with a butcher's knife.

In order to ease the atmosphere, Rong Xiao also tried to analyze: "Most of the monsters that Meng Xishan subdued should come from the endless abyss. The golden holy sword reacted. Could it be the former owner of this sword? What's wrong with the endless abyss?"

Shi Jiutian frowned: "Golden holy sword... endless abyss...?" It sounds like this is indeed a good idea.He seems to have found the direction of investigation after going out——

Hearing what everyone said, Yan Yueque endured it, and finally yelled angrily: "What's the use of all you talking about! If you figure out the secret of the golden holy sword, you can get rid of it!" Have you killed all the enemies outside?"

Maybe it was because he was too emotional, as soon as he finished saying this, he suddenly pressed his chest tightly, his breath was short of breath, and a severe pain that seemed to be torn apart was constantly flooding upwards from his heart , almost cutting his whole body in half.

A few people rushed forward to help, Yan Yueque was used to this strange disease, tried to take a few deep breaths, just thinking that when he calmed down a little, it would be relieved.

But this time, the illness was fierce. Not only did it not get better for a long time, but the tingling pain entrenched in my heart became more and more intense.Finally, the darkness in front of Yan Yueque's eyes continued to expand, and his whole body, amidst the sound of ringing in his ears like a drum and hammer, fell forward.

……

When he woke up again, he was sitting in a small, crude room with his wrist resting on the table, receiving the pulse of a half-baked medical practitioner.

Because he was the coach, he suddenly fell ill and fainted. The people in Group A took it very seriously, even those who had a bad relationship with him came here.For a moment, the small room was packed with people, making the air even more stagnant.

Yan Yueque frowned, he hated this feeling of being treated as terminally ill by everyone... Especially, the half-baked guy opposite was always looking serious, as if he was about to say something unlucky... Even the air here is permeable. The turbidity, the city tower that shook from time to time, and the sound of gunfire outside, all of this made him feel irritated!

After a while, the doctor finally spoke.

"City Lord Yan, I regret to tell you that the series of symptoms you have shown recently are all due to the damage from strong radiation."

"And the source of radiation," he lifted a pillow from under the table and placed it in front of everyone, "is the jade pillow that the city lord has used for a long time, and the jade lock that you wear with you."

Naturally, the jade lock has been removed, and now it is placed together with the jade pillow.

They still exude a faint green light, still so mysterious and beautiful, fascinating, but since they carry a very strong radiation source, looking at that kind of light now is just terrifying.

"What, this is impossible!" Yan Yueque wanted to get up excitedly, "These two things, back then..."

Having said that, he suddenly got stuck, and his legs went limp, and he fell back into the chair again.

At the beginning, it was Ou Yao who came to present the treasure, willing to be the insider of Group B, and asked for protection from Group A... He also said that he didn't care about his image in front of the audience, he just asked the city lord to transfer him enough money after the trial was over. integral.And said that in order to avoid other people's jealousy, let him keep it secret...

Many scattered clues were gathered at this time, could it be said that his purpose from the very beginning was—?
"Damn it..." After thinking through all this, Yan Yueque was furious, and slapped the table hard, "How dare you play on my head!"

Ou Yao's goal is not to score points at all...but to bury a time bomb beside him...he has never betrayed Group B, he just performed a scene in front of himself, and the audience all over the world In front of him, played a wonderful Infernal Affairs!
At this time, the people in the room who suddenly woke up began to whisper with fear on their faces.

"No wonder I feel more and more irritable during this period of time. It turns out that it is because of this radiation source!"

"Yeah, it seems that many conflicts are caused by it... The people in Group B are black, playing this hand, it is really killing people without blood!"

"...Tell me how to cure this disease!" Hearing the whispers of everyone in the room, Yan Yueque raised his voice again, as if trying to suppress the uneasiness in his subconscious, "When my physical strength recovers, I will definitely treat it." Go kill those villains from Group B!"

"Unfortunately..." The doctor suddenly became embarrassed, and carefully peeked at his face, "These two things are extremely radioactive, and the city lord has been using them close to his body for a long time, and now the radiation has penetrated into the heart and liver. , destroyed all the organs in your body, including the hematopoietic cells are completely necrotic, the heart and lungs can't function normally, I'm afraid... the medicine stone has no effect..."

It took Yan Yueque a long time to digest the meaning of his words.His eyes turned cold in an instant, and his voice was icy cold, with a hint of imperceptible fear: "Then you are saying... that there is no hope?"

The doctor swallowed: "I'm afraid...it's like this."

"If you don't use your spiritual power during this time, maybe you can survive for a few more days."

Seeing that Yan Yueque's expression was extremely unkind, he quickly added: "With my medical skills, at most I can temporarily delay the life of the city lord...but you will definitely die before the trial is over...but don't worry, After returning to reality, the radiation damage suffered here will still not leave any sequelae!"

Seeing the doctor rushing down to prescribe the prescription in order to make up for his mistakes, and then looking at the jade pillow and jade lock on the table, the blurred light now has a strange coldness, like a pair of mocking eyes.Yan Yueque felt that all thoughts were lost.The pride when he first entered this space, all his lofty ambitions, now turned into a lingering curse, burying his world.

"...No need." After saying this coldly, he ignored the doctor's obstruction, stood up and pushed aside the crowd, turned around and left.

He tried his best to straighten his back, trying to keep himself the last bit of dignity.

Work hard so that you don't have to leave like a stray dog.

Feng Boliang followed him without thinking too much.After watching him get away from the crowd, his steps became staggered, and he staggered into a storage room, then collapsed by the table in despair.Perhaps it was this sudden blow that made his consciousness go blank, and he even forgot to close the door.

When Feng Baoliang stepped into the room behind him, Yan Yueque rolled her eyes with difficulty, and said with restraint: "Go out, I want to be alone."

He rested his forehead with one hand, and when his palm slipped, he grabbed a handful of hair.This new discovery made him even more devastated.He already knew that he was going to die, but with all the phenomena now, did he have to come together to remind him that he was going to die?

Not long ago, he was still discussing with Qing Lan what the most important thing was... Now he has decided!Life, absolutely is life!If you lose your life, what's the point of pursuing other things!
Qinglan... By the way, Qinglan... She said that she could make a deal with herself, asking herself to pay the most important thing in exchange for the defeat of the enemy army.If she really has this ability... Then, I wonder if she can use some kind of exchange to extend her own time?At least... let him survive until the end of the trial...

But... I am the young master of Tianxiao Pavilion, I am the high-ranking coach, do I really want to beg for mercy from that little girl of unknown origin?

When Yan Yueque's thoughts collided frantically, Feng Boliang sighed, raised his hand and gently wiped it, setting up a sound-proof barrier, and then walked slowly to his side.

"Staying locked in the room won't solve the problem. I just want to have a good talk with you."

She knew that with his arrogance, she absolutely did not want her distraught appearance to fall into the eyes of outsiders, whether it was to be comforted by others or to complain to others... Therefore, if she wanted to speak the truth to him, she had to promise to accept it. The conversation that came down, no one overheard them except them.

"Are you here to see my joke?" Sensing the sudden change in the atmosphere in the room, Yan Yueque shouted hoarsely again, "Get out! I don't need to be ridiculed by the demon girl of Jiuyou Temple!"

The trial is coming to an end, and his life is counting down... This is ridiculous... His high and mighty young master of Tianxiao Pavilion, now looks like a terminally ill patient, who can only wait for death to come every day...

Perhaps, things have developed to this point, and I am indeed responsible.It's because he shouldn't have trusted Ou Yao, shouldn't have made this deal with him, and shouldn't have listened to his bewitching, self-righteously hiding it from everyone...

But even so, there could have been a turning point, it could have been...

His abnormality was not pointed out at first.Feng Boliang said it, and Rong Xiao said it too, they said that his physical condition didn't look very good and he should see a doctor for diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible, but he never believed them.He decided that they just wanted to see his jokes, and he decided that they just didn't want to see him well. He has always responded to their kindness with the most extreme indifference.

Including Mo Gucheng... Even he said, "You look like a terminally ill person".However, Mo Gucheng is his biggest competitor, so he naturally wouldn't listen to what his competitors say... He is the peak powerhouse of the ninth level of Qizong, he is the young master of Tianxiao Pavilion, and there is absolutely no problem with his body!
That's it, he procrastinated day by day, delaying his illness day by day.

Even the doctor said that if it could be detected early, it could have been treated early...

So now he doesn't blame anyone, he just blames himself, okay?It's your own fault, okay?

Feng Boliang still didn't give up, she calmly sat down opposite him.

"Well, even if I came to see you joke, why don't you laugh first?"

Yan Yueque squinted at her, and after a while, the corners of his mouth finally curled into a desperate arc.It seemed to be a smile, but it was so cold.

"Heh... a person who keeps laughing at others and wants to seize power, but he doesn't know how to be played so badly by others... Now that he has been ordered to order, he still can't do anything. Isn't it ridiculous to just sit here and wait to die? I think it's ridiculous!"

Until he had vented enough, the back of his cold hand was suddenly covered with warmth.

Yan Yueque was startled, and raised her eyes inch by inch, looking at Feng Baoliang opposite her as if looking at a monster.Then his gaze slowly moved down again, and fell on their two overlapping palms.

"There's nothing ridiculous about it. Everyone makes mistakes. If there's a problem, solve it. Isn't everyone the same?"
