Buzz!
As soon as Wang Lu's voice fell, Aya unsheathed her Caliburn and pointed the sharp blade at Wang Lu. "Who exactly are you?"
While speaking, without waiting for Wang Lu's reply, her sword had already chopped down.
Wang Lu was taken aback. He raised the Sword of Mount Kun to block Aya's attack and cursed, "What the hell, dead chef, you want to rebel? You can't even recognize me, the one and only returning customer of Spirit Sword Mountain? "
Aya resentfully put down the Caliburn. "I thought your spirit was occupied by that guy. To some extent, you two are quite similar."
"… You're really blind."
"But, did you really capture him?" Aya still found it hard to believe. The most difficult thing to deal with Faceless One was that his whereabouts were unpredictable. Not long ago, when she used the Caliburn to seriously injure him in Dragon City, she still failed to eliminate him, let alone capture him alive!
Regarding Aya's suspicion, Wang Lu also sighed with emotion. "Faceless One is indeed an exceptionally powerful opponent. This time, when I broke into the King's Treasure House, it seemed like I was courting my own death. Actually, with the support of Golden King, I was basically assured of victory. However, because of his appearance, I almost capsized several times. This guy's will to fight is so strong that I've never seen anything like it in my life. Just now, Little Lazuli wiped out the entire team with a single sword strike, destroying Faceless' physical body and the spirit he left in Lazuli's body. However, at the moment of crisis, he used his remaining strength to launch a counterattack and targeted me with Mind Occupation. "
"Huh?"
Wang Lu said, "At that time, the overall situation was just settled, and a normal person's spirit was completely relaxed. Plus, I was seriously injured, and my mood was up and down, so it was easy for him to take advantage of me … It can be said that in the whole battle, the best time to make a move was precisely at the moment when the outcome was already decided."
"He's indeed a cunning opponent." Aya sighed. Although looking at Wang Lu's appearance, he had properly resolved the final counterattack of Faceless One, listening to him mention the situation just now still made people nervous.
"However, because that moment was the best time, not only he was clear about it, I was also clear about it. I've been waiting for him for a long time, and I've finally waited for the chance for him to use himself as a gambling stake. After that, there's nothing else to say. In the state of remnant soul, Faceless could not break through the defensive circle of my Non-Phase Method. Under the collision, his soul almost flew away. So, I suppressed him in my Non-Phase Immortal Heart. For the time being, he can be regarded as a prisoner. "Wang Lu said, seemingly shrugging his shoulders, but the truth was not that simple.
Why would Faceless One make a futile struggle? His counterattack at the last moment was exceptionally fierce, almost piercing through Wang Lu's defense and successfully occupying his mind. It could be said that the most dangerous part of this battle was the last moment.
However, no matter how thrilling it was, it was already over. Although Faceless One was only a hair away from a comeback, this hair was a world of difference. A victory was a victory, no matter how thrilling it was, it was still a victory.
After a moment of silence, Aya asked, "How do you plan to deal with Faceless One?"
It just so happened that Wang Lu was also thinking about this question, so he casually replied, "Lock them up in the flesh puppets and humiliate them?"
"What?"
"Huh?" Wang Lu suddenly came to his senses. Remembering that Aya has always been an upright person, he corrected himself, "I mean to influence him with justice and benevolence, to let him put down the butcher's knife."
"…" Aya felt that Wang Lu was simply looking down on her IQ.
Wang Lu sighed. "To be honest, I'm also very embarrassed. No matter how cruel the torture method is, compared to what he did, I still feel that my imagination is insufficient."
With that, Wang Lu cast a glance at the still unconscious Liu Li. Although the wound on the girl's right hand had healed, her once slender fingers haven't been regenerated — Liu Li was a sword cultivator, so the importance of her fingers couldn't be even the slightest bit of mistake. Therefore, as a medical practitioner, Bai Shixuan didn't dare to act rashly. She was waiting for the situation to stabilize and then seriously prepare for the treatment.
"Alas, the girl's slender jade-like hand has turned into a doraemon, it really breaks people's heart!"
Aya curiously asked, "What is a doraemon?"
Wang Lu was also taken aback. "Hey, hey, in the face of little Liu Li's injury, you actually care about doraemon? No wonder people say that the Knight King has no humanity! "
Aya was flabbergasted and felt extremely ashamed.
Wang Lu sighed. "Right now, I intend to simply take him back to the sect and let the Heavenly Sword Hall Elders deal with him. After all, they are all experienced people, so I believe that with my Master's deep lower limit, they would certainly contribute something new."
Thinking of the famous Fifth Elder of Spirit Sword Mountain, especially her abnormal lower limit, Aya couldn't help but feel a chill.
"Moreover, this Faceless One has so many secrets, wouldn't it be a pity to just kill him like that? If I don't squeeze out all of his remaining value, I would feel sorry for my hard work! "
"Yes, I really can't let him off too easily." Thinking of the past and recent enmity, Aya didn't have any sympathy. She seriously nodded in agreement.
"At present, I'll try my best to lock him up. This guy's means are strange and changeable. If he escapes, all my previous efforts would be wasted." Wang Lu said. Although he was reluctant, he still earnestly operated his Non-Phase Method to stabilize his Immortal Heart.
"So, do you want to continue?" Aya looked at Wang Lu's scarred body and couldn't help but ask, "Can you still hold on?"
Wang Lu scolded, "When a woman asks a man this kind of question, do you expect to get a second answer? Of course I can! "
While saying that, he staggered to stand up. His robe was torn, his body was full of scars, and he looked unprecedentedly embarrassed. Aya sighed and then silently reached out her hand to support Wang Lu.
"Yo, left hand Liu Li, right hand me, left hand embracing both men and women, really worthy to be the Knight King."
Aya said, "If you say that again, I'll leave you behind."
—
After returning to the war chariot, Wang Lu really couldn't drive, so he calmly recuperated in the corner. Bai Shixuan was next to him, healing his injury, but the recovery speed was very slow. Aya inserted the scepter in Liu Li's hand back into the control panel and complained, "You said you'll leave it to me, but before you left, you pulled the joystick away and almost destroyed our chariot."
"It doesn't matter, I already knew that a person as tough as you would definitely find something to put back."
"…"
Aya shook her head and no longer paid attention to Wang Lu. Instead, she concentrated on operating the chariot. The chariot contained the map left by the Golden King, so the direction was very clear. The chariot rushed out of the deep sea, and before long, it returned to the main road and rapidly moved forward in the sea of clouds.
Along the way, without any words, Wang Lu closed his eyes and operated his Non-Phase Immortal Heart, suppressing Faceless One until he couldn't move.
After the Non-Phase Immortal Heart stabilized, Wang Lu opened his eyes. The tower-shaped chariot had traveled half the distance, and the journey was smooth. And with the help of Bai Shixuan, the King Pill level God Healer, Liu Li's injury was also stabilized, which finally made people feel relieved.
However, although he was relieved, Wang Lu still couldn't help but feel heavy. This time, Liu Li was in danger, but thanks to a bit of luck, she was finally able to reverse the situation. Although she had the support of the Golden King, every step was still cautious … After all, the person involved was Liu Li, so he couldn't help but worry. This accident was no doubt due to the means of Faceless One, and Wang Lu was also thoughtless. However, the root cause was that Liu Li, a person with Brilliant Sword Heart and clear mind, unexpectedly had such a big psychological defect, which was really unexpected. Unexpectedly, because of her lovesickness period, she was actually taken advantage of by others. What a gaffe this was!
Wang Lu didn't like to care about what had happened. Everything must be looked forward. Since he saw the defect in Liu Li, then he must find a way to make up for it. This love psychology and physical health education … When he returned to the mountain, he must earnestly teach it by example, so that this fool would remember it for the rest of her life.
However, remembering that in the battle just now, this fool disregarded his previous teachings, resolutely gave up the opportunity to escape alone, and returned to live and die together with him, Wang Lu couldn't persuade himself to scold her anymore. If not for her disobedience, Wang Lu wouldn't have the means to stage a shocking comeback.
Along the way, there was only the slight buzzing sound of the chariot. Aya held the joystick, maintaining the same direction.
"By the way, Wang Lu."
Halfway through the journey, the chariot driver Aya suddenly asked, "Don't you think the rules here are strange? Why do we have to take the chariot to go forward? At present, we have already passed three-quarters of the journey, but I don't think we need to rely on external forces to break through those traps. Even if the strength of the participants is limited here, it's not so difficult that it can't be overcome. "
Wang Lu said, "Your artistic and fresh behavior of sitting in the chariot and feeling the relaxed environment of the outside world is very shameful."
"... No, I'm really strange. You see, the rule that we have to take the chariot to enter the sea of clouds is even earlier than when Golden King took this place as his own. That is to say, it's not tailor-made by Golden King for us, but a rule that existed a long time ago. But what is the reason for the existence of this rule? Who set this rule? "
Upon hearing this, Wang Lu was startled. After thinking about it carefully, he silently took out a rope and a helmet from his mustard seed bag. He put on the helmet and then tied himself to the ground with the rope with one hand.
"What is this?" Aya asked doubtfully.
Wang Lu said with a smile, "Nothing, I just remembered that we should wear a helmet and a seat belt for safety. You continue to drive, I'll help Liu Li and the others."
"... I have a bad feeling about this."
"Next, I'll have to trouble you to aim at the direction of Beautiful Unique Pool Peak and increase the speed of the chariot to the limit. Don't worry about it even if it will hurt the body."
"What's going on?"
While tying Liu Li to an object, Wang Lu replied, "At least from the current clues, the biggest possibility that I can think of is that there is an obstacle that cannot be overcome by manpower near Beautiful Unique Pool Peak. When people reach this obstacle, they will lose their ability to move. During this period, they must rely on the inertia and defense of the chariot to rush through. Our predecessors, who built the castle and other transit stations, discovered this problem in the process of exploring the sea of clouds. Therefore, they simply set the rule that people without a chariot don't have to go to the sea of clouds to die."
"... In other words."
"In other words, it won't be long before we face the first impact, so I'll have to trouble Master to drive faster."
Seeing that Wang Lu had tied the ropes for everyone except her, the driver, Aya couldn't wait to pull out the joystick and beat him. However, the next moment, an invisible impact came head-on. Aya's vision turned black and she suddenly lost all consciousness.
