Chapter 440: Fight him!
Chapter 440: Fight him!
Wu Qianhuan and Wen Rou had already noticed something when the incident happened on the first floor of Wanbao Tower.
Although what Chu Qing taught them was just a formula from the Great Heaven-Changing and Earth-Strike Method, it allowed them to rely on their own internal strength to resist the devil's sound piercing their ears.
But after such a long period of meditation and exercise, they can now move freely within the Wanbao Tower to a certain extent.
After the two people went out, they listened quietly to the noise on the first floor and knew what was going on.
I also understand that Jiang Li is not on the first floor.
Otherwise, she would definitely be the first to bear the brunt.
Then I hurried to the third floor...
On the one hand, at this point in time, they didn't have any particularly good solutions and needed to consult Jiang Li.
On the other hand, it was because... although they had been together for a short time, they still knew each other after all, and it was not easy for them to just run away on their own.
This goes against the chivalrous education they have received since childhood and is not the right way to be a human being.
But when Jiang Li was found, his behavior was very strange.
The look in their eyes was filled with indescribable complexity.
Liu Qianguan's arrival was earlier than Wu Qianhuan and Wenrou had expected...which also made Wu Qianhuan realize some problems.
But it was too late by then.
The two of them could only follow Jiang Li's instructions and hide behind the screen.
Following the conversation between Liu Qianguan and Jiang Li, Wu Qianhuan and Wen Rou finally understood that... these two people were in the same group!
The whole thing was planned from the very beginning.
Jiang Li colluded with the Tianxie Cult and intended to seize the Wanbao Tower!
At this moment, looking at Jiang Li who was standing in front of them and preventing Liu Qianguan from taking them away, Wu Qianhuan couldn't help but feel complicated.
But Liu Qianguan raised his eyebrows slightly:
“A person who has lived in darkness for a long time can see a little light?
“I really don’t agree with this…
"Have you forgotten who risked his life to help you unlock the [Heart Seal]?
"So that you can stop living according to other people's wishes?
"Who helped you make a plan so that you could leave Wanbaolou and live as you please?
“You said that these two little girls were a glimmer of light that you, who have lived in darkness for a long time, saw by chance.
"Then what is this seat?"
There were too many elements in these words, and Wu Qianhuan suddenly looked at Jiang Li.
What is the [Heart-stealing Seal]?
Jiang Li has been living according to other people's wishes for the first half of his life?
Is this why she said that she was a person who had lived in darkness for a long time?
What kind of plan did they make? To kidnap Jiang Li? To seize Wanbao Tower? Such a plan would not only prevent Jiang Li from doing what he wanted, but would also provoke the conflict to the maximum...
The next moment, Wu Qianhuan seemed to have thought of something and his expression changed slightly.
Jiang Li's voice also sounded at this time:
“Between you and me, we are naturally using each other.
"Liu Qianguan... do you dare to say that if I were not the owner of Wanbao Tower, you would still help me unlock the [Heart Seal]?
"Although that plan allows me to do whatever I want in the future, it doesn't quite fit the wishes of your Tianxie Cult?
"We are all the same kind of people, and we will not do anything without profit...
"Don't try to measure your worth with me. I am the master of this art."
Liu Qianguan pointed at Wu Qianhuan and Wenrou:
"But you should know who they are.
“That man was elected as the leader of the Lingbei martial arts world. In the battle of Xianyun Mountain, Tiansha died at his hands.
“Thousands of my evil cult disciples also died tragically.
“Although I don’t get along with those reckless men, I would feel sad if even one of the disciples of the Tianxie Cult died.
“What’s more, that battle buried so many heroic souls of our Tianxie Cult.
"He is the biggest threat to our Tianxie Cult!"
"…If he really was a serious threat, he would not be alive today."
Jiang Li said calmly:
"Aren't the biggest threats to the Tianxie Cult located in the Five Emperors City and the Three Emperors Valley?"
Liu Qianguan's breath suddenly sank, and he spoke coldly:
"If I must take them away today, what will you do?
"Hand me?
"This may be your only chance in more than 20 years. Do you want to give up your obsession of more than 20 years just for two people whose appearance you won't even be able to remember in a few years?
"Have you really thought about it?"
Jiang Li's expression suddenly froze, and a look of struggle appeared in his eyes.
Seeing this, Liu Qianguan narrowed his eyes and his tone gradually softened:
"Jiang Li, you and I are actually the same kind of people.
"We have all struggled in the mud and lived under the will of others.
“I do things against my will, just to see a new tomorrow.
"We all dream... dreaming of living freely under the blue sky one day.
"I want to change my fate, and you...don't you also want to break the cage?
“The owner of Wanbao Tower may sound very impressive, but he is just a puppet of others.
“If necessary, as long as someone can afford a high enough price, you can even be bought and sold like a commodity.
"Can you really continue to tolerate this kind of life?
"When you are about to touch the sky of freedom, why do you continue to struggle in the mud for two unrelated people?
“They won’t understand your...
“They don’t know what you’ve been through or what you’ve suffered.
"What's more, now they know about the relationship between you and me. If this matter is told to others, what will happen to you?
"When that time comes, how miserable will you be?
"Can you really bear the consequences of this?
"Only I can make you live happily!
"So, stop being stupid."
There was a struggle in Jiang Li's eyes, but he still couldn't make up his mind.
The crisp sound of a sword being unsheathed interrupted her struggle. She turned around in shock and saw Wu Qianhuan already had the sword drawn:
“I’ve really heard enough.
"You think you are her savior, but aren't you actually forcing her to do things she doesn't want to do?
"Jiang Li...right?
“I really don’t know what you’ve been through… and what kind of suffering you’ve endured.
“But the shackles forged by suffering can be broken.
"For example, if the person you met first was not this cowardly coward in front of you, but him...
“I think he has enough ability to unlock your so-called [Heart Seal].
"And if he knew what you've been through, he might give you a completely different approach and take a completely different path.
“It is not too late to mend the situation now.
"The Tianxie Cult is ambitious, ruthless and merciless, and is definitely not a good group. If you cooperate with them, it would be like courting death.
"Once it's done... I don't know whether we can get your so-called free sky. But what ability do you have to guarantee that the Tianxie Cult will not give you another [Heart Seal] like they did to others before?"
"Frog at the bottom of the well!"
Liu Qianguan sneered:
"The [Heart Seal] can only be used once on a person.
"Now that I have cracked it, she will never be controlled by this evil technique again."
"The people of the Tianxie Cult actually have the words 'evil techniques' in their minds?"
Wu Qianhuan burst out laughing:
"But even so, with the means of your Tianxie Cult, if you don't have the [Heart Seal], don't you have the [Heart Transformation Seal], [Heart Destruction Seal], and [Heart Devouring Seal]? After all, your cult has a variety of means, and even if I have been exposed to them, I can be considered knowledgeable."
"You are looking for death, you are just a flatterer!" Liu Qianguan's eyes darkened, and Wu Qianhuan suddenly felt as if his head was covered by a layer of oil paper, with no reference in front, behind, left and right.
Even though I'm standing here, I feel like everything around me is unreliable.
"stop!!!"
Jiang Li suddenly stretched out his palm, and with a grab of his big handprint, Wu Qianhuan suddenly saw the light of day again.
His heart sank, and without a second thought, the wound in his hand turned, and his body split into eight. This was the [Eight Directions] movement technique from [Hanying Gujiang].
He controlled the sword with his body, and with a quick gust of wind, swords from all directions gathered in one place.
But I heard a buzzing sound.
In the blink of an eye, the sword tip condensed between Liu Qianguan's fingers:
"How dare you show off your mere tricks!"
With a backhand flick, a huge force came from the sword. Wu Qianhuan frowned slightly, and the sword tip suddenly pressed down. He flicked his hand to remove the force, but his body involuntarily took a few steps back.
Liu Qianguan let out a surprised sound. As the head of the Wenxin Pavilion of the Tianxie Cult, he believed that his internal skills were not inferior to those military leaders who only knew how to use swords and guns.
I thought that even a casual force of my finger would be hard for this little girl to resist.
The purpose of this finger was to break Wu Qianhuan's tiger's mouth, but unexpectedly, she actually managed to take it.
This move may seem understated, but the tremendous force contained within it is beyond the imagination of others.
The fact that Wu Qianhuan was able to take on this finger shows that this girl’s inner strength is profound and far beyond that of ordinary people.
He immediately sneered:
"I underestimated you!"
After he finished speaking, he pointed at a point.
As soon as he made this move, Wu Qianhuan felt that everything around him was distorted.
The room, the floor, the ceiling, and all the furnishings inside, all rotated and merged into the space between the fingers.
Knowing that this person was good at confusing the mind, he had been on guard for a long time. Seeing that this strange trick was hard to resist, he immediately practiced the formula taught by Chu Qing in his mind. In an instant, his mind had returned to clarity, and the power of his fingers had already arrived in front of him.
Hold the sword across your chest, and fight it out whether you can resist or not.
But at this moment, a vigorous palm print was thrown out from Jiang Li's hand, and the two forces collided suddenly, and the entire Wanbao Tower was like a candle in the wind, swaying in an instant.
Liu Qianguan's figure just shook slightly, but Jiang Li took a step back.
She frowned:
"You should go first. You are not capable of resisting this man. Don't lose your life in vain."
"No."
Wu Qianhuan shook her head decisively:
"You've fallen out with him for us, how can we abandon you?"
These words are three-tenths sincere, but the remaining seven-tenths are actually not very sincere.
After all, I have known Jiang Li for too short a time, and we don’t have such a deep affection for each other... and the situation now has become dire.
Wu Qianhuan had to pull Jiang Li to stand on the same front with them.
If at this moment, it was really as Jiang Li said, turning around and leaving with gentleness.
The little glimmer of light that Jiang Li was holding on to in his words would truly be extinguished.
At that time, she could make any choice, and the biggest possibility was that she would be persuaded by Liu Qianguan again and completely side with the opposing camp.
Once the situation changed to this point, Wu Qianhuan was not sure if she could hold on until Chu Qing returned.
Therefore, she must calm Jiang Li down.
Although this intention is not pure, it is also the most reasonable choice Wu Qianhuan can make at this point.
After Jiang Li heard this, her expression changed again. She stared at Liu Qianguan:
"Let them go, and I'll go with you.
"Everything remains the same, otherwise..."
"Otherwise, what do you do?"
Liu Qianguan's voice was already filled with impatience.
"Otherwise, this is all over!"
Jiang Li spoke decisively.
“It’s simply unreasonable!!”
Liu Qianguan pointed with his finger:
"She is indeed an ignorant woman, with long hair and little knowledge, and her actions are confusing and incomprehensible.
“They used to say that it was difficult to raise a girl or a little boy, but I didn’t believe it.
“Now it seems to be true!
"If a man were here, he would never do the same thing as you did. It's totally unreasonable!
"It seems like I can't convince you with reason anymore, so let's just make it real! Tie you up and take you back, and I can still do what I planned!!"
Having said this, he turned his palm, and as his breath condensed, an invisible gust of wind was carried away with his true energy.
Suddenly, without seeing him getting up, the palm wind had already reached Jiang Li.
Jiang Li spread his arms, and a huge handprint rose from behind her. Then a deafening roar was heard from the third floor.
Cang Tong, who was fighting with the old man on the first floor, suddenly looked up with a changing expression.
I thought to myself:
“Sure enough, whenever the dean says that everything is under control, it will inevitably get out of control.
"Why did they suddenly start fighting?"
Although he had enough confidence in Liu Qianguan's martial arts, he still had to learn from the past. Similar situations had happened more than once, making it difficult for him to calm down.
The old man slapped him back to reality. After he took several steps back, he stood with his hands behind his back.
“I am old, but I am not dying.
"You dare to be so distracted when fighting with me... Are you seeking death?"
Cang Tong didn't dare to think about it anymore. No matter what the situation upstairs was, it was not under the control of the dean.
I can’t take care of it now.
The important thing is to concentrate on dealing with the person in front of you.
At the same time, in the private room on the third floor, this palm also caused Jiang Li's body to leave the ground and retreat more than ten steps.
The room is limited in size, and this is the limit.
Her face was gloomy, but she suddenly heard the sound of a sword.
It’s Wu Qianhuan making a comeback.
His face immediately changed:
"No!"
Liu Qianguan frowned:
"You do this again and again. You really don't know how to live or die."
As soon as he finished speaking, he pointed his finger and there was a buzzing sound. Wu Qianhuan's [Xiao Yue Gu Han Sword Technique] was immediately shattered and his body flew backwards involuntarily.
But this time there was no Jiang Li's obstruction, and Liu Qianguan didn't want to give Wu Qianhuan any more chances. He took a step forward, flew over, and slammed down with a palm.
At this critical moment of life and death, Wu Qianhuan only heard a voice in her ear:
"Fight him!"

ps: Today is the only update because I went to the hospital... I thought it would be done quickly, but it turned out that I was overthinking.
Halfway through the MRI... I couldn't go on. It was the first time I realized that I had claustrophobia. I couldn't breathe and felt like I was about to die. I was so scared that I kept shouting for help.
I had made an appointment for a B-ultrasound of my neck before, but I had to wait in line for a long time... The MRI of my cervical spine couldn't be taken, so I went downstairs to ask the doctor for a refund, but I had to wait in line for a long time again.
Later I had an X-ray and just came back. I have used up all my energy in the morning and I really don’t have the energy to write two chapters... I’m sorry.
Will update as normal tomorrow.
Thank you for your tolerance~
