The sniper gun god of the king's continent

Chapter 88 The Eye of the Phoenix

Tiankui City.

Inside the City Lord's Mansion.

Shangguan Wan'er pointed her finger at Li Xiao, the city lord, and said angrily, "Li Xiao, you colluded with the blood clan and harmed our Heluo people, are you guilty?"

Li Xiao stood up staggeringly from the steps, and said drunkenly, "A mere woman, how can I be qualified to convict me? Even Wu Zetian, she is not qualified!"

After speaking, he picked up the wine bottle and took another big gulp of wine into his mouth.

Just when he put down the wine bottle, he suddenly looked at the pen in Shangguan Wan'er's hand in a daze, and the wine also woke up a bit.

After a while, Li Xiao asked indifferently, "Where did you get this pen?"

"You don't need to know where you got it from, and you don't deserve to know, die!" Shangguan Wan'er said with a blank face, and then charged towards Li Xiao.

It's still the same trick - Zhangcao·Henglin!
Li Xiao looked at her sprinting figure, with complicated expressions in his eyes, he stood there blankly, and suddenly started talking to himself.

"You are the Grand Tutor's granddaughter, Wan'er, right? You've grown up so much... yes, so many years have passed."

It was not the first time that Shangguan Wan'er had heard the word "Taifu" from outsiders.

In the past, in the palace, from the nobles of the royal family to the court ladies and eunuchs, as long as they talked about Shangguan Taifu, they would all be labeled as traitors and traitors, and their tone was naturally indifferent and disdainful.

But Li Xiao's tone at this time was more like his own elders.

Although Shangguan Wan'er didn't have much impression of the elder's tone of voice when she spoke to her, she had such a feeling at this moment.

However, when she thought of the people whose families were destroyed in Tiankui City tonight, Shangguan Wan'er still had more killing intent in her heart.

She came out of the palace this time with the imperial decree to kill first and play later.

And Li Xiao was also the first person she wanted to have surgery on!
No matter what Li Xiao said at the moment, it would be difficult to shake Shangguan Wan'er's desire to kill him!
Only by killing him can the Heluo people who died tragically be comforted.

Seeing that Shangguan Wan'er's figure had arrived in front of him, Li Xiao didn't dodge or resist, and let the surging magic energy fall on him.

boom.

The mana barrier on Li Xiao's body was instantly shattered, and the expression of hesitation and struggle in Li Xiao's eyes completely disappeared, replaced by a look of determination and relief.

"Forget it, let it be... I, Li Xiao, am sorry for the people in the frontier. Since the Taifu still has blood left, Li Xiao doesn't have to continue to live, so why not pay for it? It's just Wan'er..."

Li Xiao spoke slowly, then suddenly turned around and looked at Shangguan Wan'er who turned back again and attacked and killed him, and said in a serious tone: "The real culprit who murdered the Shangguan family is not just a peony alchemist, it can even be said that whether it is Whether the Shangguan family or the so-called peony alchemists are just sacrifices made by Wu Zetian in order to ascend the throne, this naturally includes me and the emperor's brother."

Li Xiao seemed to really put life and death aside, and said these words very calmly.

However, after Shangguan Wan'er listened, panic suddenly appeared in her heart.

"Li Xiao! You dare to talk nonsense when you are about to die. Your Majesty should have cut off your head right away!" Shangguan Wan'er said angrily, and the second wave of magical energy fell on Li Xiao.

The latter's face turned pale for a moment, but the smile remained undiminished, quietly waiting for Shangguan Wan'er's third attack.

But at this moment, Shangguan Wan'er felt even more upset when faced with this motionless human-shaped sandbag.

She also knew that she shouldn't believe what Li Xiao said, but Li Xiao's expression made it hard for her not to think about it.

Recalling the past, Shangguan Wan'er seemed to catch some clues.

For example, why did the eldest prince rebel?At that time, the first emperor was already dying of illness, and he would be able to inherit the throne in a legitimate way in a short time, so why should he shoot himself in the foot with a rock at that time?
Could it be that the eldest prince at that time had already noticed that Wu Zetian would covet the throne, so he planned to act first?

Is what I witnessed when I was three years old really the whole truth of this conspiracy?
Never before at this moment, Shangguan Wan'er has doubts about what she saw with her own eyes.

Her heart became more flustered, and her killing intent became more and more intense.

Since the problem cannot be solved, the person who caused the problem should be solved first!
Not to mention, even if Li Xiao died, he could hardly escape the blame.

Thinking of this, Shangguan Wan'er simply stopped thinking about it and got rid of Li Xiao first.

After the third charge, Li Xiao's face turned pale again, but he still smiled and said, "Li Xiao's death is not a pity, but Wan'er, you must remember! Don't be fooled by that cunning and vicious woman." Blind your eyes, she is your real enemy, you must get rid of her, only then can you comfort the spirit of the Taifu, and only then can you rehabilitate the members of the Shangguan family who died in vain!"

These words were also Li Xiao's last words.

After Shangguan Wan'er's third charge, the fourth and fifth charges were completed in one go, and then her body flew into the air and disappeared into the void, arousing many magical energies, which landed on Li Xiao's body, completely destroying her body. kill.

During the whole process, Li Xiao didn't even move a step.

Rather than saying that he was killed by Shangguan Wan'er, it would be better to say that he committed suicide by himself, at least Shangguan Wan'er can't guarantee that she must be stronger than Li Xiao.

And the reason why Li Xiao wanted to die, maybe no one except himself could know...

Seeing Li Xiao's body lying on the ground, Shangguan Wan'er had mixed feelings, and she turned around and left after a while.

……

Joy Inn.

Baili Shouyue and Jia Luo had already returned to their rooms. The former had just taken a shower and lay on the bed because of too much energy consumption in the magic way, and then fell into a deep sleep.

Baili Shouyue woke up suddenly from his dream until a crisp chirp sounded in his ears, and also heard the knock on the door.

Walking over to open the door, it was Shangguan Wan'er, who smiled reluctantly and said, "Thank you very much tonight."

With that said, she handed back the three pieces of equipment that Baili Shou promised to her.

"You're welcome, Miss Shangguan."

Baili Shouyue shook his head and smiled, then took the equipment, and then his eyes fixed on the eye of the phoenix among the three pieces of equipment.

"Then I'll go back to my room and rest."

Shangguan Wan'er was absent-minded and didn't notice Baili's obedience to the contract. After speaking, she turned and walked back to her and Jia Luo's room.

As soon as she reached the door, she suddenly stopped again, without looking back, when a voice came.

"Oh, by the way, these three pieces of equipment are all contaminated with the breath of the blood race. In the future, try not to use them in front of others, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble to you."

"Yes, I see." Baili Shouyi responded casually.

Shangguan Wan'er opened the door, walked back to the room, and closed the door.

Baili Shouyue quickly closed the door and returned to the room.

At this time, he was completely sleepy, put the Book of Blood and the Book of Devouring God into the storage space, sat on the chair, and carefully pondered the Eye of the Phoenix in his hand.

ji ji ji ......

The sound came out from the Phoenix's eyes again, but it was no longer a crisp chirping, but like a chicken's cry when it was frightened.

What is in the eye of the phoenix?
Baili kept the promise and was puzzled.
