I Can't Be Sword God Chapter 345

345 “Fair” competition

“Yingli Qianqian.”

Cang Kong looked at Li Chu in a daze, not understanding the situation.

Lead the way? why should Qingqing lead the way?

Why does it look like you're going to chop down the orthodoxy's chief with a saber? is there something wrong with this dense killing intent?

Where's my gentle and lovely Yingli?

“Someone is breaking out of prison!”

“Lord Cang Kong! You actually dared to release the chief's heavy prison without permission!”

A shout suddenly came from the other side.

With a series of clattering sounds, seven or eight female guards in armor rushed out.

“I'm not Yingluo, I didn't, Yingluo, don't talk nonsense!” Cang Kong quickly raised his hands and denied three times.

Huaxu country had strict laws, and jailbreaking and breaking prisoners were all serious crimes. If they didn't stop resisting, they might be killed on the spot.

However, Li Chu had already stepped forward to meet her in front of her terrified eyes.

“Stop! Give up on resisting!”

The sound of swords being unsheathed could be heard as a pile of shiny weapons were aimed at Li Chu. The true Qi on them pulsed, and the light from the blades could be vaguely seen. It was obvious that these guards had extraordinary cultivation.

Li Chu's gaze swept across their weapons. The guards did not know if it was an illusion, but they felt that his gaze was a little strange, as if he was picking out goods.

Just as they decided not to be “tender to the beauty” and were about to start, they saw the other party suddenly raise her finger.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Cang Kong had a look of pity on his face. He begged Ying Li to stop his strange actions so that he wouldn't be killed by the guards.

He did not know what kind of magical ability or demonic technique he had used, but he had actually caused all the guards to enter a state of stiffness in an instant, and they were fixed in place.

“Eh?”

Cang Kong was dumbfounded.

Then, Li Chu stepped forward to pick up a shiny long sword, put it back into its sheath, and carried it on his back.

Although this sword used by the guards of Huaxu country was not as good as the famous swords in the future, it was still an excellent weapon and could be used.

“Why are you still standing there?” Li Chu turned to look at Cang Kong.

It was obvious from his gaze that he was still saying the same thing.

Lead the way.

“Ah, Yingluo, okay.” Cang Kong didn't dare to reject him anymore. He ran out of the cave and turned back with a smile. follow me.

The moment they left the cave, the sunlight was dazzling.

This prison was actually built at the highest point of the mountain. Looking down, one could vaguely see more than half of an ancient city State.

All kinds of buildings made of white wood and stone, round roofs, and colorful flags fluttering in the air were all 100% realistic.

If this was really a projection, then it would require a considerable amount of magic power to conjure it.

Cang Kong brought Li Chu down the mountain but did not enter the city. Instead, they went to another mountain.

It was a mountain that was clearly much wider and deeper.

“This is the forbidden mountain of the orthodoxy, and it is extremely heavily guarded.” Arriving at the edge of the mountain, Cang Kong lowered his voice and said, ” “No matter what happens, don't cause any trouble. Once we're discovered, we'll quickly surrender. With the king's trust in me and the first seat's expectations of you, it shouldn't be too difficult for our Wufu.”

“Who's there!”

Before she could finish her sentence, a woman in a red battle robe suddenly jumped out from behind a huge rock in front of them. Her face was smeared with three strange oil colors, and two magic flags were stuck on her back.

we are good people-” Cang Kong quickly raised his hand.

Then, he heard a familiar Bang Bang Bang.

“You're crazy!” Cang Kong's eyes widened. you dare to attack a disciple of the orthodoxy? ”

In Huaxu country, there had always been a common understanding that it was better to provoke an official of the Imperial court than a disciple of the orthodoxy. The orthodoxy's status was transcendent, and the methods of this generation's head of the orthodoxy were cruel and ruthless, so they had always been feared by people.

Li Chu shook his head. continue to lead the way.

In his memory, the orthodoxy's forbidden mountain was indeed strictly off-limits to the people of Huaxu, and the previous Ying Li had no idea how to go up there.

An official like Cang Kong had only been fortunate enough to accompany the king to the top once or twice, so he could barely remember the path.

The further up they went, the more dangerous it became. She really did not want to go up anymore, but since Li Chu had already made a move on her, she had no choice but to force him to continue.

Then, the two of them climbed up the high back mountain.

you've subdued more than thirty orthodoxy disciples on this journey. You're simply disdainful. Cang Kong looked at Li Chu in disbelief. this is too crazy.

Li Chu looked at the deep cave in front of him and asked, ” “Is this the place?”

“It should be Wufu,” vast sky said weakly.

“I'll go in by myself, thank you.”

Although he had not stepped into the cave, Li Chu had already scanned it with his mind. The thick demonic Qi almost covered everything, hiding hundreds of restless and dangerous auras.

If he brought Cang Kong in, he might be in danger.

As he watched Li Chu's back enter the cave, Cang Kong suddenly felt lost.

Who am I? where am I? what am I doing?

He went to visit a prisoner for no reason, but it seemed like he became an accomplice in his Prison Break and then went to the forbidden mountain? It was really an unexpected disaster.

However, Yingluo

Although it was a huge sacrifice, I just saw that extremely handsome face thank me, Yingluo.

He still felt very gratified.

Weng.

……

“Roar!”

“Ah, Yingluo.”

“Kill! Kill! Kill!”

As they followed the dark and deep cave down, Li Chu subdued many more orthodoxy guards.

When they came to the depths of the cave, they saw a scene that made their blood run cold.

In this huge cave, there were more than a hundred prisons. Rather than calling them prison cells, they were more like cages.

In the narrow space, layers of complicated iron chains and talismans suppressed the existence of the cage. As for the one locked in the iron cage, he didn't know if he could even be called a human puppet.

Some of them had bulging flesh and blood, and their eyes were as red as blood. Some of them were covered in long, brownish-yellow hair, and it was difficult to tell them apart from other animals. Some of them had even lost their human form, and their bodies were covered in tentacles. Only their eyes could reveal some emotions.

Demonic Qi surged.

At this moment, they were either going crazy or wailing in their respective cells. It was like purgatory on earth.

Li Chu walked among them, taking each step with extra caution.

He relied on the familiar aura in his memory and found a relatively quiet cage in the depths.

The reason why this place was relatively quiet was because the surrounding iron cells were all empty. It wasn't empty, but covered in blood and broken pieces of flesh.

It seemed like something terrible had happened.

“Changzi?” Li Chu tried to call out.

In the middle of the iron cell was a little girl who had not been demonized much. She retained most of her human characteristics, only with seven or eight long purple tails and four limbs that had turned into sharp claws.

She raised her eyes, and her pupils had already turned purple.

“Brother?”

Her voice sounded uncertain and she looked at Li Chu with suspicion.

“It's me.” Li Chu came to the front of the cell.

“You're my brother?” Chang Zi's eyes still flickered with a purple light, as if he was unsure.

Perhaps, it was because of her demonization, or Li Chu's transformation.

As the person closest to her, even though she was in a daze, she still had a deep sense of it. She didn't just believe his identity through his appearance.

Li Chu didn't argue and continued, ” “I'm here to save you,”

“Save Yingluo!”

Changzi's eyes flickered for a moment before finally softening. It was as if Li Chu's words had made her put down her hostility and believe in his identity.

big brother, run, run, run, run. she looked at the cave. you can't save me, run, run.

Li Chu had already drawn his sword.

Since he had accepted the mission, he would not allow failure.

“It's useless, Qianqian.” Zhang Zi continued to shake her head.”Even if you can see through this iron prison, I can't walk under the sun. We're all monsters that can't see the light.”

“What?” Li Chu stopped his actions.

This was because changzi's words reminded him that this mission wasn't that simple.

Was the so-called ” rescue ” really as simple as releasing her from the cage?

He put down his sword and asked, ” “How did you guys become like this?”

“It's master's Zhenzhen.” Zhang Zi said, but he stopped and changed his words.”The orthodoxy's first seat, she's gone mad, Wuwu!”

she claimed that she had received a revelation from God that Huaxu country was about to be destroyed. She said that the only way to save Huaxu country was to sublimate the whole country.

“Sublimation?”

I don't know where the chief got an eye of the first demon, ” after the illumination of the eye of the origin demon, the body will be transformed and greatly sublimate.

Then, she smiled bitterly. just like us.

“She calls this sublimation?” Li Chu frowned.

“That's right, we've indeed obtained great power, but this power is accompanied by bloodthirst and madness. We can't control it at all,” Chang Zi said in pain. I've trained my soul before, so I can barely suppress it. Those ordinary soldiers can't struggle at all. They've all turned into monsters.

Li Chu didn't waste any time and asked directly, ” “What can I do to save you?”

“It's hard to escape!” Chang Zi held his head with his claws and said,”Someone tried it before, and even death can't free him. I'm afraid there's no other way but to destroy the eye of the primogenitor devil.”

So that's how it is, sob sob

Li Chu finally understood. Perhaps this was the real mission?

“Where is that thing?” He continued to ask.

“Only the orthodoxy's chief knows where it is.” Chang Zi replied.”Only the chief can summon and control it. The power of the eye of the origin demon is unrivaled.”

She suddenly raised her eyes and asked again in confusion, ” “Are you really my brother?”

“I'm Yingying!”

Li Chu hesitated.

Because he didn't know what kind of answer was the most appropriate.

In such an open world, it would be terrible if he said something wrong and affected the following plot.

Admit it? Or not to admit it?

Or ignore it?

Just as he was thinking, he heard footsteps outside.

“Ying Li!”

It was Cang Kong. She actually didn't leave but ran back in.

“What's wrong?” Li Chu asked.

the chief has already received the news. Cang Kong hurried over. Although everything around her was shocking, she was not most worried about it.

“Ying Li, stop.” “The orthodoxy's disciples are all outside!” She said anxiously.

“Oh?” Li Chu raised his eyebrows. the orthodoxy's first seat is here too? ”

“This one doesn't seem to have a Kasaya,” Cang Kong said.

“The day before yesterday, the chief said that before the spring flower Festival, they would all be in seclusion in the divine temple. Ying Li, what's with that disappointed look in your eyes?”

As she spoke, she was shocked by the change in Li Chu's eyes.

Are you very disappointed that the first seat didn't take action personally?

Isn't it good to be alive?

“If that's the case, it's not a wise choice to fight with the people outside.” Li Chu said.

“Of course!” Cang Kong paused. Ying Li, you've finally thought it through. Surrendering is the wisest way. Hey, hey, what are you doing?!

Before she could finish her sentence, Li Chu suddenly pointed his halberd upwards and unsheathed his sword.

Then, Li Chu grabbed her arm and pulled her up to the sword.

Although Cang Kong was a civil official, as a woman, she had been taught body-tempering techniques since she was born. Her body and soul were already quite strong, so she should be able to withstand a short period of sword riding, right?

Xiu-

A beam of light suddenly shot out of the cave.

In the blink of an eye, they had already landed within the walls of Huaxu country.

Boom–

After falling to the ground, a cloud of dust rose up.

“Are you alright?” Li Chu asked.

When the dust settled, Cang Kong was seen lying on the ground, his limbs twitching and his mouth and nose groaning. There were even faint signs of his eyes rolling back.

hey, Yingying! Li Chu called out again.

His flying sword was indeed not that gentle, so he never dared to bring people easily. He felt that it was not good to leave Cang Kong there alone, so he tried to bring her along with Xuanji.

“Ah,” he said. Cang Kong groaned and seemed to gradually come back to his senses. what kind of zhouzha is this zhouzha? ”

She looked around and suddenly glared at Li Chu, ” “You're not Ying Li!”

“……”

He had been discovered? Li Chu was silent for a moment, weighing the necessity of silencing him.

“You're an immortal!” Cang Kong said.

After she finished speaking, she passed out very cleanly.

Li Chu observed her body with his heart. There was nothing wrong with her body. It was just that the speed just now was too fast and she could not take it. She should be able to wake up in a while.

Hence, he simply left her there.

There was no longer any danger of being arrested by the orthodoxy here. As for what to do next, it would be up to her to decide when she woke up.

Moreover, Yingluo

After she woke up, it was still uncertain whether there would be a head of state in Huaxu country.

Li Chu sheathed his sword and walked in the direction of the temple in his memory.

……

The orthodoxy's holy temple had a long history, many buildings, and the land it occupied was constantly expanding. It was already larger than the palace of Huaxu.

After Li Chu arrived, he flashed through the high wall and entered the temple.

The roads here were complicated and the buildings were hard to distinguish. However, Li Chu did not care. He used his mind's eye technique to lock onto the strongest aura in the center.

That person was definitely the head of the orthodoxy.

After walking for a while, they arrived at a White Palace that was not very tall but very elegant.

The target of this trip was inside.

Without saying anything, Li Chu stepped forward and wanted to cut to the chase.

As soon as they approached the palace, they heard one of them say loudly, ” “Chief! No matter what, he had to take care of his body and not skip meals! You're always busy with state affairs and thinking about the people. If you don't come out to eat now, what will you do if you starve and thin? I'll be heartbroken.”

The voice was very shrill, and it sounded like a voice that had suffered.

However, for some reason, Li Chu felt a sense of familiarity from the unfamiliar voice.

“Get lost,” he said. This was a woman's deep reply.

“Alright,” he said.

After being scolded, the owner of the sharp voice was still very happy and turned to leave.

When he saw the figure walk out of the palace, Li Chu was slightly surprised.

As expected, it was him.

He saw Chen Huaiji, dressed in a black and red brocade robe and a small hat, walking out with happy steps.

Li Chu was lying in ambush around the corner and dragged Chen Huaiji over when he passed by.

“Hero, please spare me!”

Chen Huaji's first reaction after being frightened was to cover his head and squat down as fast as lightning.

This way, even if someone wanted to kill him, they wouldn't be able to do so in time and would be confused by his decisive surrender. If the other party made any further moves, he still had a backup plan-to kneel down.

“It's me.” Li Chu said.

“Ya?” Chen Huaiji raised his head and was instantly pleasantly surprised.”Isn't this the pride of Yuhang, little Daoist priest li?”

Li Chu could not be bothered with the strange title he was using and asked, ” “What are you doing here?”

“This Yingluo.”

When he mentioned his past, Chen Huaiji's lips suddenly flattened, his nostrils expanded, and his large eyes were filled with tears.

“Little Daoist priest Li, I'm not complete anymore, hehe.”

Li Chu was silent for a moment, not knowing how to comfort her.

“When I was illuminated by that strong light, I discovered that I had appeared in the orthodoxy's divine Hall, and I was even a trusted aide of the chief. There was nothing bad about it at first, until I felt like peeing.”

“I realized that I can't find the tools to commit the crime, hehe!” Chen Huaji sobbed.

Seeing that he was crying even more miserably, Li Chu had no choice but to advise him, ” “It's more environmentally friendly when you squat.”

waa … Chen Huaiji looked like he was about to cry.

“Tell me who you are first,” Li Chu quickly said.

“Ohoho.” Chen Huaji stopped crying on the spot and introduced, ” “My identity is a manager of the divine temple. My name is Wu Ji Gong Gong.”

‘What a fitting name,' Li Chu thought.

However, he didn't dare to say it out loud. After all, Chen Huaji had just suppressed his tears.

I've been in charge of taking care of the first seat's food and living. Other than that, there's nothing else. Chen Huaiji continued.

Oh, I see. Li Chu nodded.

Could it be that he was the only one with complicated missions?

“Hey, little Daoist priest li, what are you doing in the temple? Who are you?” Chen Huaiji asked.

Li Chu did not hide anything and revealed his identity and target.

Who knew that after he finished speaking, Chen Huaiji would suddenly be shocked. You want to kill the chief?”

“What's wrong?” Li Chu looked at him strangely. can't I? ”

“AI, CAW, CAW.” Chen Huaji sighed and said,”now that things have come to this, I can no longer hide it. In truth, other than being a steward of the divine temple, I have another identity in the dark, one that jeers at me as a Lackey of the orthodoxy's chief.”

“These two identities don't conflict at all, right?” Li Chu asked, puzzled.

“No, it's not.” “I used to be a young master of a rich family,” Chen Huaiji shook his head and said,”but later, my family committed a serious crime and almost had my entire family executed. It was her Excellency, who had yet to become the first seat, who saved me. Since then, I've deeply remembered her in my heart.”

later, she became the first seat, but I was just a useless person who couldn't practice Huaxu Sutra. I thought, since Qianqian couldn't be with the one she loved, what was the use of this iron rod? ”

Li Chu grinned.

He was a man.

“So, I cut off the root of my troubles and devoted myself to the divine temple. I practiced the Huaxu Sutra diligently to protect the safety of the first elder. Even though she's powerful and doesn't need my protection, I'm ready to sacrifice my life to protect her. ”

Li Chu looked at his moved expression and asked again, ” is this the background story or your own experience? why are you so engrossed in it? ”

“Oh, hehe.” Cheng zhiji was stunned for a moment, then he smiled embarrassedly. it's mainly because Wu Ji's character is too compatible with mine. I feel like I'm a part of his character.

Then, he scratched his head. and I have a feeling that I must protect Qianqian. I can't let her get hurt. I have to help her do what she wants to do. Only then can I get something.

“Oh?” Li Chu blinked. so, your mission is to help the Head of Department? ”

but isn't this in conflict with your mission? ” Chen Huaiji looked at Li Chu with a troubled expression. what should we do? ”

“I don't really have any good ideas,” Li Chu said calmly.”In that case, let's compete fairly.”

“Ha?” is this really fair? ” Chen Huaiji's face was full of fear, and his words carried a sobbing tone.
