Fairy, please let me explain

Chapter 658 War begins

The towering city wall stood not far away, and the array patterns on it flashed with a frightening light, bringing one of the few lights to the dark market, and allowing Xu Yuan to see the appearance of the person who came.

In addition to the hideous insect-like compound eyes, its fair skin is also covered with black cracks as thin as silk threads, as if they would split at any time.

How ugly.
Compared to the last time we met, Mu Xingyi has now completely turned into a monster in human skin.

After staring at the people in the shop for a few breaths, Xu Yuan chuckled and threw the yellow fragrant fruit in his hand back to the stall. He pointed to the intact city-protecting skylight above and smiled and said:
"I came here naturally to wait for you, but I am very curious about how you got in, Xingyi. This formation has not been broken yet."

As he spoke, Xu Yuan's eyes took on a look of scrutiny:
"Is this body of yours a projection?"

Mu Xingyi did not answer Xu Yuan's question:
"This kind of low-level temptation is not like your style, Brother Xu."

Xu Yuan had no intention of following the other party's topic. After thinking for a moment, he said to himself:

"Although you and I have a history, there is still a difference between close and distant relatives. If you were to come in your true form, you would not give me a chance to speak. So is your current body really a projection created by magic?"

Mu Xingyi was hidden in the shadows of the shop:

“This is definitely not my true self.”

"It's really a good idea."

Xu Yuan praised, his slender eyes narrowed slightly: "But to be able to create such a projection through the city defense formation, I think you must have used the Holy Source?"

Mu Xingyi had no intention of wasting time talking to Xu Yuan:
"Whether it's the Holy Source projection or the real body, compared to these boring questions, what you really want to ask, Brother Xu, is the purpose of my coming here."

Xu Yuan's lips curled up into a smile:
"So your purpose shouldn't be to persuade people to surrender, right?"

Mu Xingyi looked as calm and relaxed as when they first met, and his voice was gentle:

"I am here to make a deal with you, Brother Xu. After all, you once saved my life."

Xu Yuan looked at the old man who was no longer human and touched his chin:
"So you are a sentimental person, but since you said that, it seems that you really want to persuade him to surrender."

After a few moments of silence, Mu Xingyi said slowly:

"Although Brother Xu will most likely refuse, I will still finish what I am saying. If you are willing to be devoured by Mu Nuo, Wan Er and I will serve the Prime Minister's Mansion for a hundred years, regardless of life or death."

Hearing this suggestion, Xu Yuan couldn't help but chuckle:

"Do you think I'm the kind of person who'd sacrifice myself for the people of this city?"

Mu Xingyi shook his head and said slowly:
"I'm talking about serving the Prime Minister's Mansion for a hundred years. The other saints outside don't know about the conversation between you and me now. If you agree, the three of us can cooperate with you to kill him."

"You work for the Prime Minister's House. My father will not allow you to live."

“So I say life and death don’t matter.”

"."Xu Yuan.

After a short silence, Xu Yuan shook his head and smiled:

"In order to pave the way for that ghost baby, you two are really willing to sacrifice your lives. Is this the nature of living things?"

"."

Mu Xingyi glanced sideways at the inn in the north of the city where he had stayed temporarily, and said calmly:
"If you weren't so special, maybe we could still drink wine and talk at night like we did that day."

"okay."

Xu Yuan interrupted Mu Xingyi and said with a faint smile:
"I did admire your character at the time, but I remember we were only friends for about half a month. Isn't it a bit too disgusting to play this game of mutual admiration?"

"You can't win."

"maybe."

"It seems that Brother Xu has made up his mind."

"Half-time celebrations are not a good habit, especially since the game hasn't officially started yet."

As he spoke, murderous intent flashed in Xu Yuan's eyes:
"Also, even if your kid doesn't come to find me, I will take the initiative to find him when my cultivation level improves."

"."

Silent silence.

As they stared at each other, Mu Xingyi's calm tone was tinged with a hint of regret:
"Is it still like this?" When the soft whisper faded away, Mu Xingyi slowly closed his ferocious compound eyes, and above the sky, a huge change suddenly occurred.

"Thorn-"

The sharp sound of fine iron clashing resounded through the sky. Without any warning, a huge beetle's foot blade pierced through the city's sky curtain from the outside. The tip of the blade fell at a high speed, like a giant sword that pierced the ground of the city, raising a cloud of dust.

And this is just the beginning.
The huge blade began to move, tearing a gap a hundred feet in size on the skylight protecting the city. Sunlight and insects rushed towards the gap frantically, falling from mid-air, and the sharp chirping of insects began to spread into the city.
Seeing this scene, Xu Yuan was about to make a joke that the other party's destructive power was far inferior to Baidi, but when his eyes fell on the man in front of him, Mu Xingyi had already slowly opened his eyes, and the aura on his body suddenly became unfathomable.

Oh?
Can the Insect Saint also transfer his real body to the magical projection?
The surprise in Xu Yuan's eyes had not yet disappeared when a fine crack on the surface of Mu Xingyi's skin gradually opened up, and a slender whip blade protruded from it.

In the almost stagnant time, the whip blade suddenly swept across and hit Xu Yuan.

From top to bottom, the cut marks caused by the swing instantly spread out dozens of feet from the ground. The stalls and houses along the way were cut in half vertically. The airflow caused by the slashing swept over after a breath!
The air wave blew up his clothes, and Mu Xingyi stared at the handsome man who was still standing in front of him, with a hint of weirdness in his dense compound eyes.

Xu Yuan also looked at it, with a hint of helplessness in his tone:
"As soon as the negotiation broke down, you immediately killed him?"

Mu Xingyi stared at the man in front of him:
"With your level of cultivation, it's impossible to react."

Xu Yuan shrugged, squinted his eyes and smiled:
"It is said that if the speed of the strike is fast enough, the person will not even realize that he is dead. Maybe I am dead now."

"."

Mu Xingyi did not speak.
The insect people are different from other creatures.

He doesn't have a soul to explore the surroundings.

But relatively,

The insect man's compound eyes gave him dynamic vision far superior to that of humans of the same level.

Just when the whip blade touched the opponent, Mu Xingyi clearly saw Xu Changtian's figure flash in front of him, and he dodged his attack by a hair's breadth.

Seeing this, Xu Yuan sighed:
"To be honest, I envy you. You don't have to do anything. You just need to eat your own father and you can directly gain the power of a saint."

Before he finished speaking, the whip blade hidden under Mu Xingyi's skin stretched out again, and dozens of sudden cuts spread out from under Xu Yuan's feet, cutting the southeast area of ​​Huanglongji clearly!

But strangely,
Except for some dust on his clothes, Xu Changtian still stood in front of him intact.

Every time his strike came, his figure would flash.

Xu Yuan glanced at the mess behind him, and feeling the half-empty Dantian in his body, he sighed:
"I originally wanted to wait until my sister-in-law showed up, but since Xingyi has given me such a gift, I will naturally return the favor as a courtesy of the host."

"It seems that you have indeed set an ambush here, but are you sure your ambush is against me?"

Before he finished speaking, Mu Xingyi's brows suddenly frowned, and he suddenly found that his body was fixed by some force.

next moment,
Countless translucent mysterious talismans lit up from the darkness of the market. The crystal clear talismans slowly linked together and finally formed a spherical light shield, enveloping the entire market!
The dense compound eyes rolled rapidly, and Mu Xingyi observed the surroundings. Although he still could not find the location of the caster, some thoughts flashed through his mind quickly.

This is a magic trick set up in advance.

The caster should be at the level of Transcendental Cultivation.

Although it is not difficult to break this talisman formation, it takes time.

With the Holy Source protecting him, these talismans will hurt him.

If you choose to shed your shell and leave, you won't get hurt, but you will lose a lot of holy energy.

As soon as the complicated thoughts flashed through my mind, a moment of hesitation caused another unexpected change in the surroundings!

The talisman light shield suspended in the air suddenly shrank, like golden chains, clinging to his body and locking his breath firmly within the talisman cage.

Just at this moment, Mu Xingyi quickly rolled his eyes and caught a glimpse of movement on the towering western city wall.

It was a burly man suspended in mid-air.

The other person was staring down at him.

Behind it,

There are hundreds of heavy crossbows for city defense that are already drawn and ready to fire!
