Chapter 484 Near Death
Lan Geng was shot in the arm with an arrow, but he did not let go of the controller in his hand.
I didn't press it.
Just as Ruiyu thought, Lan Gengzhong was using this as a threat, not intending to kill everyone here.
“I told you before, we’re only arresting Jiang He. What’s the Fifth Army doing getting involved? Jiang He isn’t even in the military. It would be bad if he got implicated.”
Ruiyu's tone was not good. He spoke with a half-smile and a half-threat, while tightening his bow again, locking it firmly against Lan Gengzhong.
Ruiyu didn't open her mouth again, and everyone, including Lan Gengzhong, understood the implication behind her words.
This is a private matter between the Surveillance Department and Jiang He. Initially, they only intended to arrest Jiang He, but now Rui Yu is blaming the Fifth Army for wanting to kill Jiang He.
Ruiyu was thinking that he hadn't initially intended to kill anyone, but the Fifth Army's protection angered him.
Changsun Ling spat on the ground in resentment:
"Pah! What do you mean 'we're just here to join in the fun'? You've at least reached the Refinement of Void realm, yet you're so unreasonable. You're all so old, and you still manage to distort the truth like this!"
"What's the use of reaching the Void Refinement stage of cultivation? If you only act according to your own whims, killing people is just a matter of a word from you. I'm starting to doubt whether the Department of Extraordinary Investigations is even a legitimate department, with such a corrupt official!"
"Ha, coming to the Black Nest is one thing, but to actually injure someone is another. Just for this one crime alone, I will definitely report it after today."
Yes, Ruiyu actually dared to injure Lan.
If they really thought their Fifth Army was out of manpower, now that the number of demons had increased and Rui Yu was entangled with them, and no one could come out to deal with him, the cultivators of the Fifth Army were quite worried.
Their worries deepened, especially when they saw Ruiyu shooting an arrow at Lan Gengzhong.
Lan's arm was not only hit by an arrow, but Jiang He had also been seriously injured by Rui Yu earlier.
Jiang He is clearly only at the Nascent Soul stage. After being attacked by a Void Refinement stage cultivator, he is probably breathing much less now.
The Fifth Army could not hide their worry.
Ruiyu pretended not to see it; he felt no guilt or worry at all.
Even the last bit of hesitation vanished with a single letter.
They wanted her dead.
Thus, Jiang He had no choice but to die.
Ruiyu ignored Lan Gengzhong.
Lan Gengzhong pulled out the arrow and stood in front of Jiang He, but Rui Yu swept past Lan Gengzhong and knocked him unconscious. Then he asked Ji Xu to put him aside for the time being.
Once again, only Ruiyu Jixu and a group of cultivators from the Different Observation Department remained on the field.
And Jiang He.
The arrow was pulled out of Jiang He's body, and the wound medicine that Lan Gengzhong brought was probably a regular supply of pills for cultivators in the army.
The arrow wounds on Jiang He's body slowly healed.
She looked up at Ruiyu, a hint of regret creeping into her eyes.
It's not that I regret what I did, but rather that I regret being too hasty.
She glanced apologetically at Lan Gengzhong lying on the ground.
Today's crisis is unavoidable.
Jiang He knew that no one else could save her...
Ruiyu drew her bow, and the target of her arrow changed from Lan Gengzhong to Jiang He once again.
An arrow pierced his heart, but he was a step too late.
Jiang He rolled over, and the arrow, slightly off-center, pierced her chest.
The Fifth Army's cultivators were alarmed to see that the vital organs had been spared.
Dodged.
I couldn't dodge it again.
Jiang He coughed up blood and felt a sharp pain in her chest.
She was curled up, unable to even hold the sword.
She couldn't dodge that attack, but she could only try her best to avoid the vital points.
Jiang He vomited blood, and because her chest cavity was full of blood, she coughed and vomited blood all over the floor.
Ruiyu smiled, a hint of regret in her eyes.
"You avoided it again? I don't believe you'll always be so lucky!"
He now admits that Jiang He does have some real skills.
but.
What else can you do if you're capable?
Ruiyu snorted coldly:
"Get ready for this second blow!"
Ruiyu threw the bow and arrow back to the Nascent Soul cultivator behind him, and then summoned his staff back.
The staff grew larger, and Ruiyu silently chanted the incantation. Soon, a huge wave of water transformed into tens of thousands of thorns.
The thorns formed from spiritual energy were extremely sharp.
Several thorns were directed towards Jiang He.
It almost pierced through the person on the ground.
Countless thorns pierced through.
Jiang He lowered her head; the protective shield on her body was completely shattered.
Jiang He looked at the several wounds on her body and closed her eyes slightly.
His body was mangled, and he only retained a sliver of consciousness.
She felt excruciating pain, once again so close to death.
Suddenly, a series of images flashed through my mind.
Jiang He suppressed her urges; she truly did not want to die.
As expected of someone in the Refinement of Emptiness stage.
As Jiang He thought this, her will to resist grew stronger.
Jiang He crushed the mustard seed sac.
Inside the mustard seed pouch, besides the S-grade crystal core, there were also tens of millions of spirit stones.
Nowadays, there's no time to worry about wasting money.
Jiang He absorbed all the crystal cores and spirit stones at once.
We can't worry about other side effects right now.
Jiang He absorbed it very quickly, practically swallowing it whole.
Before Ruiyu could react, Jiang He had already absorbed all the spirit stones.
Rui Yu initially thought Jiang He was simply absorbing spirit stones, but when he came to his senses, he suddenly realized that the spiritual energy in front of him was completely gone, and he couldn't even sense a trace of water element.
There couldn't possibly be any other cultivator around who could absorb spiritual energy like this, except for him and Ji Xu.
Ruiyu also looked at Jiang He, who had already absorbed the spirit stones.
Immediately, surprise appeared in his eyes.
All the crystal cores and spirit stones were absorbed by Jiang He, and even the spiritual energy around them gathered on Jiang He.
Jiang He and Lan Geng are currently lying on the ground.
Especially Jiang He, who was severely injured, was seen by everyone by the tens of thousands of thorns.
Ruiyu is ruthless in her pursuit of killing.
On the other side of the transparent shield, many cultivators were watching Jiang He.
Zhong Liyu slammed his fist against the protective barrier, hating for the first time in his life that his cultivation was progressing so slowly.
Shirozumi's fists were also clenched.
Long Aotian and Li Ling, weapons in hand, were about to charge forward.
Heng and his party took a deep breath as they watched the tense scene unfold.
Under normal circumstances, this girl would be 100% beyond saving.
But.
Long Aotian still had to do things for him, and he was considered Long Aotian's half-master. Jiang He was also Long Aotian's friend.
Leaving someone in distress is not his style...
Long Aotian wanted to break through the transparent barrier with his sword, but Heng Yixing's voice rang out at the right moment:
"You can't do it alone. You'll just be cannon fodder and waste your life. Don't go."
Long Aotian didn't listen to Heng Yixing's words at all. His spiritual energy was drained, and the transparent protective shield was on the verge of collapse without the support of spiritual energy.
Long Aotian was determined to delay Ruiyu.
As long as we can stall them, Shirozuchi will find a way.
Long Aotian and Bai Zhizhou looked at each other.
Heng and his group, seeing the boys who had already discussed it, blurted out:
"What are you thinking? With your strength, you're not qualified. I told you not to go, but I didn't say I wouldn't. Just watch. Clear a space for your nascent soul, I'll possess your body, and I'll go."
After Heng finished speaking, Long Aotian was stunned for a moment:
"senior……"
“Senior? Call me Master. I’ve decided to be your Master. My disciple’s friend will of course be saved.”
Heng Yixing made no mention of the harm that possession caused to his soul; he spoke of it casually.
While Long Aotian was still hesitating, Heng Yixing decided to possess him directly.
It's just killing a Void Refinement stage cultivator.
He Heng and his group are the strongest sword cultivators in the empire.
Just as Heng and his party were about to make a move, a bright light flashed.
Long Aotian and Heng's group suddenly noticed that the sky had turned gray. The sky darkened quickly, not like clouds that had been gathering gradually, but rather as if they had appeared suddenly.
