"Liu Li!?"
"Sister Xian 'Er!?"
"Woof!?"
Liu Li suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood and fainted. In an instant, the car turned into a mess. Bai Shixuan picked up Liu Li and, while checking her pulse, tried to summon her magical power, turning it into healing power. However, the magical power of the living dead was like a stone sinking into the sea. Aya took out all of the pills that she obtained from her hundred years of experiential learning across the two continents, but she didn't know which one would be effective. Quan Zouhua anxiously scurried around Liu Li. Although its power was formidable, it couldn't be used to save people.
In a panic, Wang Lu stared at Liu Li. His fists were clenched, and blood flowed out from his palms … However, he still made a calm judgment.
"Stop!"
"Stop?" Aya was surprised, but then she thought of the problem. Her complexion became incomparably gloomy. "Despicable villain, get out here!"
With that, the Caliburn was unsheathed. The golden light was incomparably sharp, as if it was substantial.
After being reminded by Wang Lu, Aya also thought that Liu Li was seriously injured at this time, which was undoubtedly the work of Holy Light Religion. Although they didn't care about the specific method … their purpose was obviously not to kill, but to delay their footsteps.
Otherwise, since they could inexplicably make Liu Li vomit blood, why couldn't they just let her die? Perhaps, the reason why they didn't directly kill her was because...
"Mm, you're very tactful."
Under the alarmed and angry eyes of the crowd, that gentle and indifferent voice came out from Liu Li's mouth.
Then, with a strange posture, Liu Li left the embrace of Bai Shixuan and quietly stood in front of everyone. It was still the same body, that pure and flawless face, but her expression was stiff like a dead person, as if she was not used to her own face.
… Faceless!
"I like to deal with smart people the most. They don't talk much." Faceless One's words were full of sarcasm, but his voice was calm. "Unfortunately, you're not the people of my Holy Light Religion. Therefore, even if you're smart, you can only die."
Aya tightly gripped the Stone Sword in her hand as her anger overflowed. "... Stabbing people in the back, so despicable and shameless, this is indeed the style of Holy Light Religion."
"Ridiculous. A dignified Knight King actually dares to say such ridiculous words. No wonder you're the ruler of a destroyed country," Faceless mocked without any trace of politeness. "Sneak attack? Do you have the right to criticize others on this point? The King's Treasure House is the territory of Holy Light Religion, have you obtained anyone's approval to enter the Treasure House? You sneaked into someone else's territory, so it's only natural for you to be punished. "
Aya was startled when she heard this, and then her face sank. "Sophistry!"
Wang Lu reached out his hand to stop Aya, indicating that he would speak.
"Did they do it on Dragon City's celebration night?" Wang Lu asked softly. "Was it that drink?"
Faceless One's stiff face twisted into a smile. "How is that possible? Although at that time, we were hostile to each other, Dragon City is, after all, your territory. If I poisoned the drink, it's not a justifiable defense, nor is it a punishment for the traitor. It's purely a sneak attack. I believe in Holy Light, how could I do such a despicable and shameless thing? "
Aya angrily said, "You dare to say that you didn't do it?"
"Of course I did it, but I didn't poison it. I just chatted with her so that she could face her heart more clearly, that's all. For you heathens, this is simply too gentle and considerate."
"Face her heart more clearly?" Wang Lu sneered. "That's all?"
Faceless One said, "Of course, the two sides are hostile to each other. As a believer of Holy Light, how could I take care of the enemy? Therefore, while taking care of her, I also induced the entanglement in the depths of her heart. That's fair. "
"Induced, entanglement?" Wang Lu sneered. "Fool a fool! How could Liu Li have such a high IQ to cause her entanglement? "
"Oh?" Faceless One was slightly surprised. "I thought the two of you are from the same sect, martial brother and sister, so you would be as close as one person. Turns out, even you don't know her! No entanglement? In this world, only a stone will not entangle. As long as it's a human, no matter how simple it is, it will entangle. Because this is what a human is, a flawed mortal that needs the guidance of Holy Light to continue to move forward. "
"However, on the other hand, it's fortunate that human is full of flaws, so I have a place to use my skills. Holy Light Religion is full of talented people, so it's not easy to make a name for oneself in the church. " With that, Faceless One suddenly tilted his head. "By the way, if you're trying to delay the time by chatting, that's exactly what we want. According to the current speed, it won't be long before we meet."
"By the way, if you're trying to use the life-saving magical treasure left by your sect, you'd better give it up as soon as possible. Even if it's a life-saving magical treasure, if you can't get the consent of the person, it won't work. This … no matter what, it's the same, right?"
Upon hearing this, Aya was startled. If the person didn't agree, the life-saving magical treasure wouldn't work … She was very clear about this. However, Faceless One said that, could it be …
"You've occupied Liu Li's spirit?"
Aya was shocked and angry at the same time. Her hands that held the Caliburn Sword slightly trembled.
As an opponent who has fought against Faceless One, Aya was very clear about his horror. More than a hundred years ago, when Faceless One's strength was still very weak, his spirit occupation was a terrifying skill that made people pale in fear. Faceless One was best at playing with people's hearts. He could dig out the softest and darkest part of the human heart, and then use it as nourishment to nourish the darkness.
The nourishment process was completely silent, so much so that even the nourishment itself could not detect it. However, once the nourishment was over, a terrible thing would be born.
What was born was the Faceless One himself. Once a brave warrior, a strategist, a magician, or a benevolent and virtuous person, once occupied by Faceless One, they would eventually become the new Faceless One.
Faceless One didn't have a face because he had seized many people's faces. If he wanted to, he could even change into any face at will. However, once occupied by his spirit … there was no precedent of recovery.
Because of this, when Aya learned that Faceless One was still alive, she was always on guard against his spirit occupation. More than a hundred years ago, she had a full understanding of spirit occupation. She was also particularly sensitive to the seed he planted in other people's hearts, so it was impossible for her not to discover it. However, more than a hundred years later, it seemed like Faceless One's spirit occupation had entered a new realm.
"Yes, it's spirit occupation." Faceless One casually replied, "Speaking of which, it's really a very sweet nourishment. Although the realm is not high, the taste is more delicious than that of high order professions."
"You!?" Aya felt her vision go black.
Wang Lu still maintained his calm. "Spirit occupation? Is it like possession or something like that? That's really troublesome. It seems like I can only send her back to the mountain to be dealt with by the Elders. "
"Send her back to the mountain?" Faceless One laughed in spite of himself. "Hehe, in the sea of clouds, even the Legendary Sages are not free. Do you think a few dead things given by your Master can do it?"
"Oh, if the quality is not enough, then the quantity will make up for it." Wang Lu lightly said, took out a stack of talismans from his mustard seed bag, and weighed them in his hand. "One is not enough, but ten should be enough."
Faceless One's eyes narrowed. "This is … Heavenly Talisman? It's actually Heavenly Talisman? You … "
There were millions of talismans in Nine Regions, but the prestige of Heavenly Talisman was known even in the Western Continent. It could break the dimension and the plane, and forcibly transport people back to the set location. Although … in this sea of clouds, general space props and spells were basically ineffective, but if it was Heavenly Talisman, moreover, it was activated at the same time …
"Yes, in terms of power, perhaps it can really break through the blockade of the sea of clouds. However, the premise is that it has to go through Liu Li herself … "
"She agreed." Wang Lu said and then spread out the ten talismans, and on each of them was written the same name: Liu Li. Obviously, it was already prepared.
"Moreover, the talismans have been modified by the Elders, so whether Liu Li is willing or not, as long as I activate them, she must roll back to the mountain … This is called the authority of the leader. Well then, I'm not going to talk nonsense with you, let's send Liu Li back. "
With that, Wang Lu poured his magical power into the Heavenly Talisman, which triggered a dazzling light.
"Oh, it seems like you're serious?" Faceless One finally seemed a bit surprised. "But, I have completed the spirit occupation. Using ten Heavenly Talismans to send a corpse back, you heathens have committed the felony of extravagance. "
"Corpse? Not necessarily. "Wang Lu said," Have you really completed the spirit occupation? Although you said it so confidently, I don't believe it. Therefore, I'll just send it back and let the Elders help me identify it. If Liu Li is still alive, with the strength of the Five Uniques of the Wanxian League, how could she be saved? If she's dead … letting the corpse return to its hometown is also humane. "
The strong confidence in Wang Lu's words also infected Aya.
That's right, although … although there has never been a precedent of surviving the spirit occupation, but if it's Wang Lu, perhaps...
"Enough." Faceless One coldly said, "Since you doubt whether my spirit occupation is successful or not, I might as well commit suicide, and you can directly bring the corpse back to your hometown."
Wang Lu immediately extinguished the light of the talismans in his hand and then burst into a smile. "It seems like it really didn't work. Otherwise, why would you say you want to commit suicide? In that case, I'll put away these ten fluorescent talismans. "
Fluorescent talismans?
Everyone looked at the talismans in Wang Lu's hand in surprise. Isn't that … Spirit Sword Heavenly Talisman?
"Am I sick? Why would I prepare ten priceless Heavenly Talismans? However, I have as many fluorescent talismans as I want, so it's more than enough to swindle you. "
Wang Lu smiled lightly and put the fluorescent talismans back into his mustard seed bag. However, from Aya's point of view, she could see that Wang Lu's hand was actually slightly trembling.
Very well, Liu Li is not dead. The protective measures that the Elders put on her are really effective. And since she's still alive, everything is possible.
"Hey, does fraud make you so happy?" Faceless One curiously asked and then stretched out his right hand. Right in front of Wang Lu and the others, Liu Li's five slender fingers, which were most suitable for holding a sword, were cut off.
