Brain goes blank.

There is nothing to describe Sima Xuxu's current reaction. The simple four words are that his mind is blank. He looks at the woman who has been with him day and night walking on the road filled with bones. The confrontation between black clothes and bones, the brightness and beauty of golden eyes in the dark void. The temperature, the familiar, the unfamiliar, the incomprehensible amount of pheromones were like a black mist that gently enveloped his face.

The raised bronze sword in his hand was released and moved slightly forward by half an inch, exposing his neck.

"Xuxu!"

The moment Sima Xuxu's hand on the sword relaxed, Zhao Xiaosheng's low roar came from behind him.

Sima Xuxu reflexively stood up the bronze sword in his hand again. The next moment, the sword of the four-sided Han sword named "Qingwu" in his hand suddenly rebounded, and the huge force forced him to use both arms to stabilize the sword. With his center of gravity, he took a few steps back and even passed Zhao Xinsheng's position before he stepped hard on the ground and stopped the car.

In his peripheral vision, a long, dark-gold, tapered needle pressed vertically against the bronze sword until all the power attached to it disappeared. Finally, it spun and fell to the ground, making many melodious jingles. .

Sima Xuxu, who raised his sword, turned stiffly to look at the golden needle on the ground. He roughly recognized its material from the color and texture. Then he turned his sword and looked at the tiny dents left on the body of the alchemy sword, a slight cold sweat. It flowed from the back.

The hidden weapon made of gold and titanium alloy was aimed at his throat when he was absent-minded. If Zhao Xinsheng hadn't reminded him to correct his posture with the sword, this golden needle, which is extremely poisonous to the dragon blood gene, would have penetrated his neck. Lateral aorta, the poison will flow into the brain and heart at a speed that is difficult to rescue.

In less than a tenth of a second, he took a trip between life and death. It was the purest malice, without any strong emotions, and a murderous intention that was so bland that it made people tremble.

Li Huanyue, who was standing in front of the sea of ​​white bones, did not close the distance anymore. Her movements did not change much. It seemed that the golden needle that tried to kill Sima Xuxu had nothing to do with her.

"You saw it." Zhao Xiaosheng said softly from the side in front of Sima Xuxu.

Sima Xuxu didn't reply, because of course he saw it.

He is the master of the 'Jade Leak', and his innate dynamic vision is stronger than others. Of course he can see clearly how the woman opposite shook out the needle from the cuff of the black dress and hid it behind her back. When he saw the needle, he caught the flaw in his mind and threw out this golden needle.

"She's here for you, Xuxu." Zhao Xinsheng said.

Sima Xuxu's blank brain was filled bit by bit with information, colors, and those cold, incredible, unbelievable fragments and glass shards bit by bit filled his brain, squeezing out all the original impressions, memories, and past. Pierced, and then flowed out anger and questioning through the oppressive and bloody soul window, "What are you doing!? Sister Huoyue!"

His questions were mixed with roars, and emotions of confusion, anger, and confusion roared out of his throat, echoing in the dark void.

The largest dark gold skeleton in the sea of ​​bones behind Li Huoyue seemed to be shaken by the air and collapsed, along with a large number of white skeletons, causing a domino effect and a loud crashing sound.

Li Huoyue stood in front of the collapsing sea of ​​bones. The bones behind her black clothes collapsed and rolled like white sea waves, and she was the sharp and hard rock. The bronze sword held in her hand was cold and stable.

"She came to kill you." Zhao Xiaosheng helped the woman answer Sima Xuxu and said calmly, "Although I guessed that such a day would come, I didn't expect that it would come so early."

"Xiaosheng, what are you talking about? What do you mean you guessed that this day would come?" Sima Xuxu suddenly looked at Zhao Xunsheng.

"You are here now and you are determined to do this. Does this mean you have succeeded?" Zhao Xinsheng looked at Li Huanyue and asked calmly.

Li Huanyue did not answer Zhao Xiaosheng, but in Sima Xuxu's eyes, not only Li Huanyue, but also Xiaosheng became strange in an instant. She seemed to know many things that she didn't know. Although it was always the same, But this time it was different. He was keenly aware that something had changed, or that it had always been like that, but he had never lifted the dark veil.

Li Huanyue did not answer Zhao Xuansheng, but looked at Sima Xuxu, her golden eyes that looked like red gold seemed to be considering something.

Sima Xuxu met Li Hueyue's eyes and shuddered slightly.

He recognized that look. He had accessed the videos of Li Hueyue's field missions in Lang Juxu through his own authority. In those video records, "Yue" would carefully observe the enemy before every move. That was When analyzing and sorting out the weaknesses of the prey targeted by the sword, the line of sight is like a paintbrush, marking the cut lines and piercing holes one by one on the target, and finally executes the killing coldly.

"Speak!" Sima Xuxu shook off the coldness and fear, forced herself to stare into Li Hueyue's red-gold eyes, and growled, "What did Xiao Sheng mean when you said you were going to attack me?"

"Xuxu, she has already attacked you." Xiaosheng said softly.

Sima Xuxu ignored Zhao Xunsheng's words and just stared at the red gold eyes. His whole body was stretched like hair. The fingers holding the bronze sword were so hard that there was a gap between the skin and the hilt of the sword. A slight tremor.

Li Huanyue gradually withdrew her considering gaze, turned to look at Zhao Xuansheng, and said, "How could you be injured like this?"

"Sister Huoyue?" Sima Xuxu was stunned for a moment, thinking that Li Huoyue was caring about Zhao Xiaosheng.

So the attack she launched against herself before was because she was angry that she didn't take good care of Xiaosheng? No. No, she also attacked Xiao Sheng. Are the seven deadly sins that were thrown really attacking Xiao Sheng? Instead of attacking the child named Xiawang?

Those feelings of luck and sophistry were destroyed by Zhao Xinsheng's silence and Li Hueyue's next words.

"It saves a lot of effort. I thought you would be the most troublesome part in the final operation to eliminate the 'Yue' plan." Li Hueyue said indifferently, looking at Zhao Xiaosheng who was half sitting on the ground covered in blood.

Clear ‘monthly’ plans?

Sima Xuxu was almost stunned. He looked at Li Hueyue and opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. But in front of him, Zhao Xiaosheng, who stood up slowly, seemed to know a lot of things, "The elders have been wary of you for a long time." , but it seems you still succeeded, I'm curious how you did it."

"You don't seem to be sad? With your position and thoughts, I thought you would lose your mind and rush forward when you saw me." Li Huanyue looked at Zhao Xiaosheng with a flat look.

"The patriarchs have their own plans." Zhao Xinsheng said softly, "If you can come to see me, it will be the patriarch's instruction. This is also a part of the orthodoxy."

"You seem to have misunderstood something." Li Huoyue said, "Your sect elders no longer exist. The five orthodox sect leaders have passed away, and their bodies should have been transported back to the corpse recovery center in an orderly manner. But afterwards I will find their coffins, cut off their heads one by one, and carry them to their rightful destination for sacrifice.”

"If the head of the clan dies, then there must be the head of the clan's consideration." Zhao Xinsheng did not waver at all, looking into Li Hueyue's eyes with the same plain eyes, "It's just like you appearing in front of us now."

Li Huoyue looked at Zhao Xiansheng calmly, and finally said, "You are hopeless, Xiansheng."

"You are the hopeless one, Li Hueyue." Zhao Xuesheng said slowly, "The crime of usurping the throne and treason is a heinous crime in any dynasty. Have you really thought about what you are going to do?"

"As the candidate 'Guardian' and 'Executioner' of the 'Moon', you have a lot of invisible power within the clan, so you should know a lot of things about me." Li Huanyue said in a calm voice.

"The elders have been worried that you have second thoughts. As the bearer of the 'Yue' system, you have shown incredible adaptability. The 'Yue' system has remained in you longer than all the 'Yue's in the past." It takes a long time. The elders think that this qualification has both advantages and disadvantages. Now it seems that the bad side has gained the upper hand." Zhao Xinsheng said coldly.

"Now you finally want to kill the 'Yue' candidates, let the clan's century-old 'Yue' plan go to waste, and completely become the only 'leader' of orthodoxy?"

After hearing these words, Sima Xuxu felt as if he was struck by lightning and looked at Li Hueyue in shock.

After listening to what Zhao Xuansheng said, Li Huanyue said softly, "It seems that you don't know anything, but this is indeed in line with my understanding of you. A good dog trained by the clan leader since childhood, lives for the Lord, and lives for the Lord." Death. Foolish loyalist."

"You can continue your lies, Li Hueyue." Zhao Xinsheng said, "The guilt of treason cannot be washed away. Your act of killing Sima Xuxu has proved that your selfishness and desire for power outweigh the self."

Having said this, Xiaosheng glanced sideways at Sima Xuxu, who was in a state of astonishment and confusion, and said softly, "In order to better manage and restrict the unified agreement made by the clan leaders who created the 'Moon' plan, It is stipulated that the 'Moon' system can only have two people at the same time, the current 'Baoyue' and the candidate 'Yuanpo'."

Her eyes wandered between Sima Xuxu and Li Hueyue.

"The 'Yue' plan is an orthodox century-old plan, and its secrets cannot be leaked. The real core construction concept has to be hidden in the hands of the head of the Zhu clan, as well as the two 'Yue's who are in office and alternate. Yue's body was recovered as a 'Jingguan' according to regulations to protect the mystery of 'Yue'."

Zhao Xuesheng paused and looked at Li Huanyue, "In other words, as long as the candidate Yuan Po can be killed and the elder Zhu clan is silenced, the inheritance of Yue will fall on the current and only treasure. Yue' is now 'Huoyue'. 'Jingguan' has lost the prototype of 'Yue' due to the particularity of its production. She will become the only 'Yue' in the world, and there is no other way to restore it. Carve out a new 'Moon' - she will steal the orthodox century-old plan and become the sole master of the 'Moon' plan!"

Li Huanyue did not argue, but looked at Zhao Xiaosheng indifferently, with indescribable indifference and pity in his eyes.

"Impossible." Sima Xuxu raised his head, staring at Li Huoyue with his golden eyes, "How could it be possible for Sister Huoyue to do it just for such a stupid reason?"

"It's true, Xuxu." Zhao Xinsheng said, "Look at her waist."

Sima Xuxu looked at the waist of Li Hueyue's black clothes, and then he felt as if he was being struck by lightning. He saw several thumb-sized jade tablets. Each jade tablet was made of the ultimate micro-carving craftsmanship. In the article, the five words that symbolize the clan are so dazzling that it makes people feel burning pain in their eyes.

"Grandpa, the clan leader——" Sima Xuxu naturally saw the jade card of his clan leader, and the image of the stern and old man emerged in his mind. Then, in the blood, those elders who were once respected and worshipped as leaders all lay in a pool of blood, their heads and bodies separated.

"What would Ximan think? What would your mother think? Or has your greed expanded to the point that even she can't stop you?" Zhao Xusheng asked softly, "As your 'executioner' and 'guardian', she has watched you grow up. Can you really meet her eyes of extreme disappointment in you?"

"I don't owe her anything anymore." Li Huoyue said.
