intoxicating

—God’s Puppet—

At this moment, the big metal tree suddenly moved, its long branches stretched out, and rushed towards every place where there were people. The first one to be recruited was Du Mengmeng. He was the weakest, and there was no place for him to develop. Before he could escape a few steps, the grain was caught by the branches and hung on the tree.

Then came Keshe, Nightingale, Biham...

"One day, I will beat you..." Ran Yan heard this sentence as soon as he arrived, followed by the sound of chess pieces falling back into the chess box.

Ji Wang likes to play chess with others the most. No matter who they are or how skilled they are, the most frequent opponents are Xun Dan and him. Xun Dan is very talented, even if Ran Yan is not proficient in chess, he can tell.

In comparison, he can only be counted as a three-legged cat.

Fortunately, he is not allowed to rely on chess skills for a living, just for fun, but with the guidance of a national player, it will not be too bad.

However, recently, he felt that something was wrong, his chess seemed to have his own ideas, and what he thought was different from where he made his moves.

After playing a game of chess, Xun Dan pushed him aside, "What are you playing?"

After finishing tidying up the chessboard, Xun Dan looked at Ji Wang expectantly, and Ji Wang asked, "Have you finished copying the family rules?"

"I've finished copying..." Xun Dan answered without feeling guilty at all.

"Go get it."

Xun Dan refused to leave, and was in a stalemate for a while, seeing Ji Wang's eyes, got up helplessly, and left the chess room, only Ji Wang and Ran Yan were left in the room.

Ran Yan said, "I'll keep an eye on him, he's being lazy again."

"and many more."

"Is there anything else the Taoist priest?"

"You can't stay here anymore, let's go."

"My lord doesn't want me anymore? Do you want to drive me away?"

"Someone needs you more."

"But then we'll never see each other again."

In the dim chess room, a gust of wind blew through the gauze curtain, and the sun shone in through the curtain. Ran Yan turned her head and saw Ji Wang smiling slightly. The ice and snow melted for a moment.

"If there is a fate, we will meet again in the end."

"When is it?"

"not now."

The branches continued to stretch out, one hooked Mu Xi's foot, and the other wrapped around Qiu Wangyou's arm. Junxuan wanted to rescue Bi Xian, but he miscalculated the strength gap between himself and the other party. Not only did he fail to rescue Bi Xian, but instead Get burned.

Another branch protruded from the side, entwining Zuo Xiyou's arm. He raised his sword to chop, but he couldn't stop cutting. This kind of branch is made of metal and controlled by Yan Qingyou.

Even Jun Xuan who entered the Eighth Realm was no match for Yan Qingyao, his strength was shocking.

When the long knife swung down, Yuan Metal collided with Yuan Metal, and was actually cut off, but it was picked up again in the blink of an eye, so fast that Gong Lingxi's eyes couldn't catch up.

Seeing Gong Lingxi waking up, Yan Qingyao showed surprise, and then turned into a gentle smile, "You're awake, then follow me."

"What if I refuse?"

"You have no choice."

"Not quite."

"It seems that you don't want to be obedient..." Yan Qingyou gave him a reproachful look, and then turned to love, "But you are my people, and I will fulfill your last wish for you."

"Let them go."

"You can only choose one."

"That Junxuan."

"If you let him go, aren't you afraid that he will insist on killing you?"

"That's my business."

"Okay then, as you wish..." Yan Qingyao didn't move, just gave a look, and a branch hung down, releasing Jun Xuan.

Jun Xuan looked at the two of them, he had heard their conversation, he was always decisive.But at this moment, his heart fell into a struggle.

He is now in the Eighth Realm. If he joins forces with Gong Lingxi, his strength can reach the Ninth Realm. He may have the ability to fight Yan Qingyao, and according to his estimation, Yan Qingyao in front of him may not be at his peak.

If he is really a god beyond human beings, he is also injured at this moment because of fighting another god.

Those white lights are not the secret weapon of the Yuan Empire, nor are they biochemical experiments conducted by any country, but an attack from another world, just like the sun shining into the forest, the sun always falls on the top, so the first to be attacked is also the upper star. domain, while the attack on the lower star domain is much less.

In this way, he can rescue Bi Xian.

However, now is a good time to kill Gong Lingxi, and just when Junxuan was hesitating, Yan Qingyao added new weight to this matter.

"If you are willing to follow my instructions, I can help the Yuan Empire win the war."

This is really an irresistible temptation, Junxuan asked, "How can you be sure that what you are telling is not a lie? People in the entire universe are your people, why do you want to help Yuan Empire instead of other countries?"

"For me, it doesn't matter who you help, you only have to choose to believe it or not."

Jun Xuan's eyes flickered. As a citizen of the Yuan Empire, he knew the energy of the Yuan System best. Without the help of the Yuan System, the Empire would be paralyzed.At that time, the Ziwei Empire will surely take advantage of the void.

Gong Lingxi said, "His purpose is to start a war. If there is no interference from him, the war will not exist. Why don't we have a truce?"

Behind this war is the source empire, and behind the source empire is the source system.

"Why did you start the war?" Jun Xuan looked at Yan Qingyao.

The Yuan Empire is a giant like Marsanne, but Marsanne has always been peaceful.In fact, the universe is not at the end, and humans are not at the point where they have to fight.

But the country of corpses is like a ferocious beast that only knows how to bite people, and the country of Xi doesn't know what to think, it always wants to annex neighboring countries.

"In order to maintain the population balance, this is God's duty, and I have to."

In other words, the question now is whether to sacrifice the people of the Yuan Empire or to sacrifice the people of other countries. Junxuan made a decision in an instant. system.

The two also reached the eighth level, but Junxuan's ability is more strategic. He has a handsome talent, but in terms of combat, he is not as good as Gong Lingxi, who is a real swordsman every day.

And he is not like Mu Xi, who has the means of long-range attack. The two fought close to each other. Jun Xuan met Gong Lingxi's long knife with his body, but was chopped several times, and blood flowed from the wound.

"I didn't expect that you, who won by luck back then, would grow to where you are today."

"Have you ever predicted the outcome of our battle?"

"You will lose..." Although Jun Xuan hesitated in his heart, he was very firm on his face.

"I think you have to listen to your prediction in reverse."

"What did you say?" Jun Xuan seemed to have been greatly insulted. Back then, the team he led lost to the Ziwei Empire, and he was under a lot of pressure. He always wanted to avenge his shame in the coming year, but the reality did not give him this opportunity. , His prediction also became a joke.

And now, the opponent is poking his sore spot with impunity.

The energy in his whole body swelled, and the aura of his whole body rose sharply, bursting out with a force like the toppling of Mount Tai, and the branches also swayed because of this force.

"Have you ever thought about becoming a god..." The person opposite suddenly asked.

The power in Junxuan's body suddenly froze. For a person like him, he had really thought about it, but it was also at that moment.

"As long as you kill the god, you can replace the god and become a new god."

"You can't beat me, so you want to instigate me to deal with Yan Qingyao?"

"I'm just telling you a new choice, a choice that you can take the right to choose in your own hands. Of course, I also hope that you can kill Yan Qingyao, and it is best to hurt both sides, so that I can save others."

"I can also choose to kill you first, and then kill him."

"That's impossible. There is a difference in strength between you and him. Only my shining stars can make up for this gap."

Yan Qingyao heard everything a long time ago, but he didn't care, and ruthlessly smashed Jun Xuan's hope, "You can't become a god."

"Can't it be...?" Although he had expected it, Junxuan still felt a great loss.

Looking at the emotional change in Junxuan's eyes, Gong Lingxi knew that Junxuan had chosen a more realistic path than the illusory chance of becoming a god, killing him and protecting the empire.

The battle started again, and the surrounding ground was implicated, but only Yan Qingyao was in good condition.

The collision of a large amount of energy produced a loud noise, which was enough to break a person's eardrums. Seeing that several attacks failed, Jun Xuan increased his attack speed.

The battle entered a fierce state, Gong Lingxi's figure was erratic, Jun Xuan missed several hits, and his eyes were red.

More energy was involved in the battle, Junxuan felt that his body had entered an unprecedented state, and the surrounding scene also changed accordingly.

Gong Lingxi lost her trace and could not be found anywhere, not only that, even the giant metal tree disappeared, leaving only him and Yan Qingyou.

"It seems that you were put together by him."

Jun Xuan was puzzled, "What happened?"

"He launched the stars to shine on you, and the ninth realm is called the outer world. People who enter this realm can open up a subspace. And now, they have entered your subspace."

"How would that be?"

"You are the ruler of the subspace..." Before Yan Qingyao finished speaking, a flash of vision flashed in front of his eyes, and a group of people and a crumbling tree fell out of this space.

It turned out that Gong Lingxi withdrew the shining stars and the subspace disappeared, but the giant tree also lost control in an instant.

Du Mengmeng fell in a daze, and his palm happened to be poked by a sharp object. When he looked away, it was the tail of a mermaid, but when he looked to the side, it was a human face looking at him in pain.

He let out a low voice, and the nightingale who was closest to him asked, "What's wrong?"

"There's a human face here, and there's a face here, all of them."

"So what? They're just sculptures, rare and strange."

However, his words reminded Gong Lingxi, he asked Yan Qingyou, "Where is this place?"

"Lighting star."

Gong Lingxi remembered that Qi Hanxi buried the mermaid in the lamp star, not only that, there was a war in the lamp star, after the war, the body was also buried there.

It stands to reason that there should be abundant water and grass and plants everywhere, but how could it be the current scene.

Yan Qingyou said, "After death, all life will turn into snow crown stones."

Nightingale was shocked, feeling that her whole world view had been greatly impacted, "Then I used dead bodies as tableware."

"The point now is not this..." Mu Xi couldn't help reminding his friend, and at the same time looked at Yan Qingyao and Jun Xuan vigilantly. He hadn't completely lost consciousness, and he had heard about what happened outside just now.

Junxuan has already made a choice, and now it's up to them to make a choice, to be an enemy of God, or to choose to be a victim.

From this point of view, God left them with very few choices.

It was Jun Xuan who struck first, he failed to kill Gong Lingxi, and there was only one target at the moment, his eyes crossed, Gong Lingxi dodged to dodge.

Yan Qingyou, who had been on the sidelines, suddenly drew out his long sword. The long sword had a soft light, like a golden sun, which did not burn the eyes.

"You should be better..." Yan Qingyou smiled.

"Then how about you let us go back?"

"I love you, but it doesn't mean that I will pamper you, and soon, you will be with them and become a part of this world."

"No, I have another choice."

"You want to kill the gods?" Yan Qingyao was startled, and then smiled, "The world without gods will face collapse, and no one will be spared."

"So in order to survive, human beings have to sacrifice the lives of a small number of people so that this world can continue?"

"What's wrong with this? Some people want to be heroes, so I will help them and let them leave their names after death."

Gong Lingxi's question was not answered, Yan Qingyao took a few steps back, her eyes lingered on the pipes on the ground, and then moved to the metal tree.

The metal branch opened, stretched out again, and retracted again. After struggling like this, it finally wreaked havoc again.

"Don't do these little tricks. Before God, everything is in vain."

Yan Qingyao turned around and came with a long sword. The long sword was called Zhihan, and it was a sword of judgment. It was used to judge the sins of the princes of the world.

He raised his sword and was about to stab Gong Lingxi, at this moment, Gong Lingxi disappeared before his eyes.

The earth began to be hot, and a sun rose in the dark night sky, surrounded by airtight ammunition.

Qiu Wangyou conjured a handful of banknotes. This was her ability. With the money in her hand, she could exchange it for any weapon of equivalent value, but she couldn't exchange it for Zhihan, no matter how much money she spent.

At that moment, she knew that Yan Qingyao was far above them, "Everyone back off."

The weapon roared, the sun exploded, the explosion and lava wrapped Yan Qingyao, the flames faded, Yan Qingyao walked out of the smoke slowly, without a trace of fireworks.

A kind of despair permeates the hearts of all people. They are the proud sons of heaven in the world, but their opponents are gods.

Metal pipes twisted and the organ began to play.

"You will all become the cornerstone of this world, and I will make history remember you forever."

The sound of the piano resounded in everyone's brain, and consciousness gradually withdrew from their bodies.

"No, it's not over yet..." Du Mengmeng stood up suddenly, "When others are desperate, it's when I fight."

Despair surged like a wave, rushing to the highest point, but it was frozen in front of Yan Qingyao.

"Your despair is not worth mentioning at all..." Yan Qingyou said, "But you will understand in death what true despair is."

Du Mengmeng knew the gap between him and Yan Qingyao, and he still looked at him unwillingly, "Death is not despair, only the loss of the courage to fight makes people despair."

"Then you will die in the confrontation, and I will have someone engrave on your tombstone, a warrior who will never give up fighting until he dies."

Du Mengmeng grinned. When facing death, there is really nothing to be afraid of.

Yan Qingyao raised his sword, but he didn't stab Du Mengmeng. Instead, he blocked the obliquely stabbing long sword with his horizontal sword. It was a slender silver sword, Zuo Xiyou's sword.

He lifted the long sword, a whirlwind blew through the air, and the wind blade scraped against his skin, which was the ability of Nightingale.

The two of them used to be opponents in the competition, and now they cooperated without losing the slightest advantage.

The sound of the piano in the air stopped abruptly, and then started again. It was different from the grandeur of the previous one. This time it was a little mysterious, as if the strings of the starry sky were being plucked.

Little by little, stars began to appear in the sky, and they twinkled.

This is the ability of the stars shining, the Valkyrie, but now it relies on a pipe organ, which is the power of the spiritual origin, ignoring the limitations of the spiritual representation, as long as there is a suitable medium, the ability can be activated.

"So what if you all ascend to the eighth realm? I am a god, an invincible god."

"You are not a god..." A person took a step forward, and that person was Mu Xi, "You are just a puppet of God."
