"...My chopping speed can hardly keep up with its self-recovery speed..."
Yue Yu bit her lips unwillingly, a hint of thought flashing across her pale eyes. At this moment, she was thinking about whether there was any countermeasure.
"How about trying it with your apprentice? Although it's not as powerful as the Emperor Bow's own light arrow, right now... this is the only method we haven't tried."
Yao Guang turned his head to look at Yue Yu and asked this question tentatively.
However, before Yue Yu could answer, the familiar purple arrow of light flew out from a planet not far away and hit the Jidu Mirage with incredible precision.
"Roar--!!!"
The immense pain caused the Ketu Mirage to emit an extremely intense mental shock. It even began to turn around unprecedentedly, as if it was planning to attack the planet that had caused severe damage to it first.
During this turning process, Yue Yu saw the huge gap left by the shadow of the Emperor's Bow, which was slowly healing, and sighed softly.
"Okay, no need to try now."
Yaoguang curled his lips, as if he was a little autistic, and then he lowered his head and began to think about what to do next.
From then on, the atmosphere between the four of them became quite strange. Everyone was trying to find a solution, but... an indescribable feeling of despair spread unknowingly.
As if sensing this atmosphere, and perhaps because Jidu Mirage was redirected by some force and attacked Fang Hu again, Yue Yu spoke without warning:
"I have a solution that is not a solution."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes were instantly focused on her, and she took a deep breath, a somewhat pale smile appearing on her face.
"Jingyuan, Yaoguang, the two of you go talk to Jingtian and see if there's a solution to the hexagram. Lord Yanyuan, the dragon masters of the Chiming Clan should be of some use too. Have them come up with a solution quickly."
"You're not good at fighting. I've let you hold on here... but that's enough. Now, leave the task of resisting the Ketu Mirage to me alone."
Looking at Yue Yu who seemed to be ready to die, Jing Yuan's face showed some thought. Then he looked at Yao Guang, and after realizing that neither of them had any way... he sighed helplessly.
"That's the only way..."
Jing Yuan shook his head slightly, and then performed a cloud cavalry salute to Yue Yu with great solemnity.
"Please, General Yue Yu."
"Just leave it to me."
Yue Yu curled the corners of his mouth, then picked up his sword again and rushed towards Jidu Mirage again, trying his best to slow it down.
Seeing this, Jing Yuan and others rushed towards Fang Hu without any hesitation and continued to think about the next plan.
......
Looking at the gradually retreating battle line in the projection sand table, Fu Xuan couldn't help but clench his pink circle, and a look of unwillingness appeared on his face.
In just one day, she witnessed the defeat of the alliance reinforcements through the sand table, and also witnessed a corner of the war through the "Dharma Eye".
The bloody battleships that covered the sky, the seemingly endless Buli werewolves, and the evil creature that was resurrected from the legend - the activated planet "Jitu Mirage".
Now, this evil object is about to fall into Fanghu, bringing catastrophe to all lives on it, recreating the tragedy of the destruction of the Cangcheng Immortal Boat, and people can only witness its arrival.
Is this really all a fortune teller can do?
Amidst the anxiety and anger, a very bold idea arose in Fu Xuan's mind. Almost at the moment this idea arose, she loudly said to Yunqi stationed at the data center:
"I want to see General Jing Yuan!"
Her request was soon responded to, and Yunqi brought her to Jingyuan and Yaoguang.
Under the gaze of the two generals, Fu Xuan took a deep breath and then said loudly:
"With Cloud Riders' current strength, victory is impossible. The only chance is to make the Emperor Bow appear."
Contrary to her expectations, after she expressed this blasphemous and absurd idea, the slightly tired general in front of her did not show any sneer, but nodded.
"how do you want to do it?"
"The Jade Que Immortal Boat possesses the Alliance's most important stargazing device, the Cloud Mirror. This device is not only used for observation, it can also transmit information..."
Fu Xuan adjusted his breathing and continued seriously:
"What I mean is, we should use the Sky Ship to transport the Cloud Mirror to Fang Hu and seek help from the Emperor's Bow and Light Arrow's last location. If we race against time, there's still room for recovery before that star falls."
Hearing this, Jing Yuan pondered for a moment, then raised his head slightly, looked at the pink-haired girl in front of him, and asked softly:
"You are well aware of... the only sign of the Emperor's Bow's arrival and the possible consequences, right?"
"Yes, as the proposer of the plan, I am willing to go to the battlefield in person to carry out this matter." The girl looked serious. She knew very well how shocking the idea she proposed was.
"Thank you for your advice," Jing Yuan nodded slightly, then slowly stood up, "However, in times of crisis, it is the Liuyu who should do their best to meet the challenge."
"Furthermore, you have no authority to operate that device. If things get out of control, I, as the one who suggested resigning, will bear all the consequences. Miss Fu, don't worry."
Watching the general's departing figure, Fu Xuan suddenly came to his senses and realized the significance of "Six Imperial Guards Working Together to Face the Disaster": someone who could fully utilize the Cloud Mirror, and even send signals by deciphering the Emperor's edicts—
Only Yuque Taibu himself.
The gears of fate meshed silently at this moment, and she naturally became the "murderer" who promoted the result shown by the divination that Jingtian had read for her.
My fate will be in your hands
Jingtian's words kept replaying in her mind, and she uttered a sentence after a trance:
"So... is there really only one path to destiny?"
Chapter 89 Behind Him Will Be the Dawn (Part 2, 5.8k)
After finishing the impromptu meeting with Fu Xuan, Jing Yuan and Yao Guang quickly arrived at Fang Hu's command center, while Jing Tian and Yan Yuanjun had already arrived here.
Upon seeing the two of them, Yan Yuanjun sighed softly and said with some frustration:
"The Chiming Clan has no other way to deal with this evil creature now. If there were two more Dragon Lords here... perhaps there would be a way."
"Don't worry, Mr. Yuan, we already have a solution."
Jing Yuan nodded slightly, and then told everyone about Fu Xuan's plan in front of everyone's shocked eyes.
As the core of the plan, Jingtian just smiled lightly after listening to it, then raised his head slightly, looked at Jingyuan with a serious face, and asked softly:
"Isn't this the idea that my disciple who went to Luofu came up with?"
"...yes"
"As expected... no matter what choice you make, fate has only one path from beginning to end..."
Jingtian laughed self-deprecatingly, then slowly stood up, still with that elegant and easygoing smile on his face, and then said to the people in front of him:
"The Jade Palace Immortal Boat is currently not too far from Fanghu. I can use the Heavenly Tower to transport the 'Cloud-Viewing Mirror' to Fanghu and summon the Imperial Bow. However... before we act, I have a question I need to clarify."
Jingtian's expression suddenly became serious. He swept his eyes over the people in front of him, and a hint of emotion flashed in his black eyes. Then he said:
"Given the consistent style of the Fengcai coalition, they absolutely will not allow the Tianzhuang to transport the "Kanyun Mirror". At that time, the Fengcai evil creatures will definitely concentrate their forces to besiege the Tianzhuang."
"In order for the plan to proceed as planned, I need someone to help me clean up the Abundant Evil to ensure that the Cloud-Viewing Mirror can be transported to the Fang Hu normally."
"The space in the Sky Tower is limited, and the Cloud Cavalry is severely damaged. They absolutely cannot take on this responsibility. The Sky Ship Division's pilots are even less suitable. They are too big a target and too easy to attack..."
"After considering this, it's only those present here who are left."
Having said this, Jingtian paused for a moment, and then analyzed it seriously:
"General Yueyu is currently delaying Jidu Mirage's progress outside Fanghu and must not leave. Generals Jingyuan and Yaoguang are among the alliance's most valuable generals, capable of devising strategies quickly after a plan fails. They must also not participate in this plan."
"This journey will undoubtedly lead to death. Lord Yanyuan carries the legacy of Yinglong. If he is destroyed by the arrows of the Emperor's bow, the inheritance will be broken, and there will be no one to watch over this sea of smoke. There will definitely be chaos in the future..."
Jingtian's words caused the atmosphere, which had just improved a little, to plummet to freezing point again. Victory was in sight, but none of the people present were able to set off.
To be honest, Jing Yuan and Yao Guang are not afraid of death, but if we consider the overall situation...
If the plan fails and they die under the siege of the creatures of abundance, who can come up with a better solution than "giving up the Fang Hu"?
And the answer is obvious: no.
Being stubborn has led to being stuck in a dilemma. Nothing is right, and it's like I'm stuck in a dead end again.
Where else can we find someone who can fight a thousand men at the same time and has a strong sense of responsibility and belonging to the fairy boat...except for these people here?
and many more?
As if he suddenly thought of something, Jing Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and the back of a slightly thin boy and a heroic fox girl appeared in his mind.
"Jingtian Taibu, according to what you said... there are only two people left who can meet your requirements."
"General Yue Yu's two disciples—Yao Qingyun Cavalry's valiant guard Jiang Mo and Yao Qingyun Cavalry's commander Fei Xiao."
"The Cloud Cavalry led by Jiang Xiaowei has already eliminated the Fengrao coalition forces on a battlefield and is on its way back to Fanghu. If I had to choose one..."
Jing Yuan's face showed some reluctance. He slowly closed his eyes, took a deep breath and said softly:
"Then he's the only one left."
Hearing Jing Yuan's words, Jingtian was stunned at first, then he smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"General Jing Yuan, please contact Jiang Xiaowei. I'll go prepare the Heavenly Tower and leave shortly."
After saying that, Jingtian left the command center without looking back, as if he couldn't bear to see the scene that was about to happen.
No matter how much he believed in the saying "there is only one path for destiny from beginning to end", his fortune-teller instinct still made him struggle at the last moment of his life.
As the military strategist of that battle, and as the Jade Palace Bu who vouched for Jiang Mo in front of so many generals, how could Jingtian not know about Jiang Mo?
But he was not reconciled.
Ever since he embarked on the path of divination, the theory of fate has been like a nightmare, haunting him from beginning to end and leaving him with no peace.
Now, he was on the road to the end, and he felt that if he didn't resist at this point...
There will be no chance to resist again.
But it is obvious that individual resistance is not worth mentioning in the face of the tide of fate, and he will still go to the end that belongs to him.
——"Repay the karmic fire of one's entire life, and avenge half a lifetime of killing sins"
Thinking of this, Jingtian slowly closed his eyes, sighed softly, and then rode his horse at full speed towards Fanghu's Xingcha docking port.
......
At the same time, Jiang Mo, who was still thinking about how to replace Yue Yu and become the protector of "Kanyun Mirror", suddenly received a communication invitation from Fanghu Command.
After he accepted it, Jing Yuan's slightly serious face appeared on the communication screen.
Before he could speak, the General Shen Ce said seriously:
"Jiang Mo, let me make this short—you should have seen clearly through that light arrow, right? The Ketu Mirage is simply indestructible, so... we're going to activate a plan."
"Jingtian Taibu will use the astronomical instrument 'Kanyun Mirror' to call for support from the Imperial Bow. He will then use the true Imperial Bow's light arrows to completely annihilate the animated planet, thus ensuring Fang Hu's safety."
"Right now, the Cloud-Viewing Mirror is on the Jade Palace Immortal Boat. We need to transport it to the Fang Hu Immortal Boat before we can start our subsequent plans."
"To ensure the safety of the transportation process, we would like to ask you... to serve as the 'Guardian' of this operation."
Hearing this, Jiang Mo blinked first, then the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and his expression did not become nervous, but seemed to be relieved.
——It was as if I was suddenly relieved.
"I will complete this mission, General Jingyuan."
Jiang Mo replied to Jing Yuan with a smile.
However, Jing Yuan didn't seem to expect Jiang Mo to agree so quickly, and a hint of surprise appeared on his calm face.
"From the beginning of the support until now, I have used the Emperor Bow Phantom three times, and I am already over three hundred years old."
As Jiang Mo spoke, he turned his head and looked through the porthole of the Starship at the cold and dark universe, chuckling softly, he said:
"Every time I use the Emperor Bow Shadow, it burns over a hundred years of my lifespan. So... I'm now an old man over seven hundred, almost eight hundred years old."
"I still can't let go of that silly girl Feixiao, and I can't let go of Xiao Ningli, who is still a little bit reluctant to let go, but..."
"I have more important things to protect, don't I?"
"Besides, I'm a dying man... I can't bear to see them in such tears."
After hearing Jiang Mo's words, Jing Yuan—no, it should be said that everyone in the command center fell silent.
After a brief silence, a sense of respect for Jiang Mo slowly rose in their hearts.
At this moment, Yan Yuanjun closed his eyes, then bowed solemnly to Jiang Mo and said softly:
"Those who have died, pay tribute to those who are going to die."
