Chapter 984: Brotherly Love, Brotherly Respect, Let My Brother Go, or We All Die Together
......
With a wave of his hand, the sea of flowers surged down, killing intent blanketing everything, equality for all living beings, a wide-area attack. Like a storm of petals, it churned within the interior space of Star-Plucking Tower, launching a full-scale, indiscriminate assault against the human-transformed spirits, monsters, and demons before him.
The Dinghai Pearls weaving through the sea of flowers couldn't have been more insidious as they howled forward.
He Xiaoyi felt a premonition in his heart. He layered golden walls in front of himself, stacking them up to block.
But facing something like the Dinghai Pearls, those golden walls were like paper.
They were shattered inch by inch, the pearls' power undiminished.
The crisis of life and death struck.
He Xiaoyi twisted his body. The Dinghai Pearl smashed heavily into his shoulder, shattering it completely!!!
Blood and flesh splattered everywhere.
Inside the room, He Xian saw He Xiaoyi suffer a severe injury and immediately jumped up in panic."Not fair!!!"
"This is not fair!!!!!"
"This is two against one!!!!!"
"Bitch!!! Shameless!!! Despicable!!! Bastard!!!!!"
Lu Ding and Ying Gou's attacks came wave after wave. The two were already formidable on their own. Working together, they beat He Xiaoyi until he had no strength to retaliate, only able to dodge and defend.
This was only because He Xiaoyi himself wasn't weak; otherwise, he would have been beaten to death in two moves.
Although Lu Ding and Ying Gou interfered with each other, trying to prevent the other from stealing the kill.
They would never be foolish enough to go too far.
The limit of their interference was kept within a controlled degree.
At this moment, the frantic He Xian finally understood how stupid his order for He Xiaoyi to kill Lu Ding had been.
But it was already too late.
He Xiaoyi could no longer extricate himself.
Out of options, He Xian finally pulled a purple blood-character talisman from his bosom.
He formed a hand seal and pressed it onto the talisman.
Instantly, a violent and berserk energy slowly awakened, and that terrifying fluctuation gradually spread outward.
He Xian raised the talisman high, burst out of the room, and shouted, "Stop!!!!"
"I said stop!!!!!"
"If you don't stop, I'll make half of Gold Flat perish with me!!!!!"
That terrifying fluctuation spreading outward.
Made Ying Gou, who had been charging forward, instantly stop.
His expression heavy, he spoke the talisman's name: "Sky-Rending Talisman!!"
The Sky-Rending Talisman was one of the Baoji Kingdom's national treasure inheritances, a secret passed down only to the kingdom's sovereign.
Each talisman required an enormous cost to produce.
Moreover, each generation of Baoji Kingdom's ruler, recognized by the national fortune, could only create a limited number of Sky-Rending Talismans.
The power of this thing was enough to blast a hole right through the sky.
Although the current holder of the talisman wasn't strong enough to fully activate it and release its complete power.
Even so.
Obliterating half of Gold Flat would be more than enough.
Logically, the Baoji Kingdom's Sky-Rending Talisman would never leave the country.
Now that it had appeared in the new city, the true identity of Star-Plucking Tower was almost laid out in the open.
He Xian also knew that once this thing came out, there was no turning back, and he could never return to the Baoji Kingdom either.
Conflicts between nations could be kept beneath the surface, but they absolutely could not be brought into the open.
His grandfather had also warned him before he left: never use it unless absolutely necessary.
It was the final trump card and the token to return to the Baoji Kingdom. Once used, he and his grandfather could never go back to the Baoji Kingdom; they would even be abandoned and hunted by it.
But even knowing the severe consequences of using the Sky-Rending Talisman.
He Xian still chose to use it.
He simply couldn't bear to watch He Xiaoyi die at the hands of Lu Ding and the other man like this.
Understanding the gravity of the situation, Ying Gou immediately tried to call Lu Ding to stop, but the words had just left his mouth: "Lu Ding..."
Lu Ding's voice came first: "Leave the outside to you!"
Instantly, a violent surge of energy slowly awakened, and that terrifying fluctuation gradually spread outward.
The reason he hadn't used it before was that Lu Ding couldn't guarantee that after he pulled He Xiaoyi into the Black Prison of Death's Body, nothing else would happen outside. After all, Star-Plucking Tower had God Ascension-level experts. If one of them came out, he wouldn't be able to respond in time.
Now, it had reached a point where he had no choice but to act.
Otherwise, was he supposed to listen to the threat of the man holding the talisman and really stop!?
Only a fool would stop, let them go, and drag things out with them.
Lu Ding didn't believe that this crappy thing could kill him.
He gambled!!!
Anyway, the Black Prison of Death's Body getting beaten to a pulp wasn't the first time. Wasn't that still better than innocent people in Gold Flat being caught up in this disaster?
Watching the three of them disappear in an instant.
Ying Gou panicked, not because he'd lost the chance to steal the kill.
But because he felt that Lu Ding's move was similar to something like the Yin Domain overlay technique.
The durability of such techniques had a limit.
The Sky-Rending Talisman far exceeded that limit.
Then it would blast through the technique, kill Lu Ding, and devastate Gold Flat.
Looking at the investigators still cleansing Star-Plucking Tower.
Ying Gou cursed under his breath, "Damn it!!!"
"You really left me a tough problem!!!!"
"Hope you can buy us some time!!!!"
While pulling out his phone to make a call, Ying Gou grumbled.
"Why does it have to be Gold Flat!!!"
As he spoke, the call connected.
Before the other party could speak, Ying Gou roared directly, "Zhuge Xing, immediately mobilize all investigators. Whether they're our people or the investigators from Jinhua Celestial Observatory, call them all to Gold Flat to evacuate the civilians!!!"
"Also, notify the special envoy in Gold Flat to cooperate!!!"
"Tell him now is not the time to talk about territory or jurisdiction! Star-Plucking Tower is suspected to be an infiltrating force from the Baoji Kingdom! They've even brought out the Sky-Rending Talisman!!!"
"Hurry!!!"
After he finished, Ying Gou hung up his phone and immediately joined the ranks cleansing Star-Plucking Tower. He needed to speed up and finish quickly.
He could have just taken his people and left directly.
But he chose to trust Lu Ding a little. Although he couldn't withstand the Sky-Rending Talisman, Lu Ding was stronger than him. What if!?
Wasn't that the kind of trust teammates needed?
Meanwhile.
Inside the Black Prison of Death's Body.
Compared to the last renovation, the decoration of the Black Prison of Death's Body had changed again.
It was no longer the old hellish, dark style.
Perhaps the Goddess, who had transformed into her divine form, Fu Yun, thought that Lu Ding didn't like the previous styles, which was why he'd smashed them.
This time, she had changed it to something warm and scenic.
Peach forests stretched everywhere, peach blossoms blooming in abundance, fragrant breezes gently wafting.
Carpet-like meadows covered the entire Black Prison of Death's Body, dotted with patches of small flowers, all carefully selected and evolved by Fu Yun.
There was even a river flowing through.
It had to be said, with this atmosphere, anyone could lie down on a hillside and sleep for an entire day, peacefully and sweetly, accompanied by the scent of grass and earth, dreaming a beautiful dream of returning to childhood.
But if one lifted the meadow, they would find that the core of the Black Prison of Death's Body hadn't changed at all. Beneath the meadow lay a ground of shredded flesh, and the riverbed was lined with white bones.
Still, as long as the surface was beautiful, that was enough.
Under a cloudless blue sky, the Black Prison Goddess, dressed in a white dress that swayed gently in the breeze, wearing a flower crown on her head, was fresh, natural, the white moonlight.
The next second.
She cupped her hands together, and the Throne rose up. Lu Ding refreshed into existence upon it.
Before she could even be happy.
A terrifying fluctuation instantly appeared in the Black Prison of Death's Body along with Lu Ding's presence.
The Hell Goddess's smile froze instantly on her face.
"Brother, how are you, brother!? Are you okay!!!"
"Where is this!!! Lu Ding, where have you brought us!? Let us go! Do you believe I'll die together with you!!!!!!"
