64. Cease Killing
Yes, they were originally just unlucky pawns controlled by Bi Yao’s Gu art. But after the effect of Huai Po You Qu was activated, these people were spontaneously freed from the control of the Gu art.
Could it be that the effect of this thing was to invalidate all kinds of Gu arts?
What the hell was this? Its effect was exactly the same as the Nine-Tailed Min? Then what was the use of this thing? She might as well have used the Nine-Tailed Min. At least the Nine-Tailed Min wouldn’t voluntarily release the control. This was clearly a negative effect for them!
“Chuyue!”
Gong Yiling secretly exclaimed and hurriedly warned, “Get ready to run!”
This was no joke. Now that these people had their own consciousness, who knew what methods they would come up with to deal with them.
However, just as she was about to move, she heard Yin Tianchou from the opposite side suddenly say, “Wait, fellow Daoist.”
Fellow Daoist?
Fellow Daoist!?
Was this old man so easy to talk to? How did he become a fellow Daoist? Shouldn’t he have just said, “Fuck, you bitch, I’m your father”?
After all, their relationship was, in a word, you know.
“Who’s your fellow Daoist? Do I need to say anything about the mess you’ve made?” Miss Gong said impatiently.
However, the group of people on the opposite side just looked at each other, seemingly very confused by Gong Yiling’s words.
“Um, little friend, I’m just confused.” Yin Tianchou said, “Why do I want to kill you, but I can’t convince myself to do it?”
…?
Huh???
What did he just say? What did he mean by “wanting to kill someone but not being able to convince himself to do it”? Had he become a saint?
“Old man Yin,” Gong Yiling sneered. “We can’t use our spiritual energy now. If you want to fight, then come and battle.”
However, Yin Tianchou still shook his head and said, “No, little friend, I’m telling the truth.”
“I know my conflict with you, I know my plan was ruined by you, but I don’t understand why I just can’t bring myself to have any killing intent towards you.”
Hearing him say this so sincerely, a dozen question marks popped up in Gong Yiling’s head.
This… who could tell her what this old man was playing at? With his current advantage, he shouldn’t be talking such nonsense with her, right?
“You don’t want to kill me now?” Gong Yiling confirmed. “You all think so?”
Hearing this, the group of people from the Divine King’s Court actually nodded in unison.
This was… a bit interesting.
They had just recovered from a controlled state. Theoretically, they had no time to discuss, which meant… they weren’t really pretending?
“Yiling,” Chuyue whispered in her ear, “what exactly is the effect of that Gu of yours? Why don’t you take another look? I have a feeling it’s the effect of that Gu.”
“But I looked at it before I used it. There was nothing on it—” Gong Yiling, while speaking, also opened the introduction to the Immortal Gu, Huai Po You Qu, and then her words came to an abrupt halt.
Because the detailed content of this thing had actually changed.
“After the system upgrade, the host can now view the detailed introduction of the Immortal Gu, Huai Po You Qu. The system summarizes its main function as [Huai Po Bewitching Dream]: Those who are completely under the influence of this Gu’s Huai Po Dream will receive a negative effect [Cease Killing] for one hour after leaving the dream.
Effect [Cease Killing]: A person with this effect will be unable to have any killing intent towards anyone. No matter how strong their resentment and anger towards the other party is, they will not be able to take the initiative to attack, but they can passively counterattack.
P.S.: This effect is not irreversible. It can be broken by the Nine-Tailed Min, and as long as the killing intent in the heart is too strong and the emotions are greatly impacted, the duration can be greatly shortened.”
Seeing this, Miss Gong didn’t rush to open the detailed introduction interface, but turned around and secretly said to Yan Chuyue, “Let’s use the Nine-Tailed Min to remove our own Gu first.”
That’s right, this thing was a non-discriminatory AOE. Not only the group of people from the Divine King’s Court on the opposite side, but even she and Chuyue were affected.
Now she couldn’t have any killing intent towards the group of people on the opposite side. She had to get this thing done before they realized they were under the influence of the Gu.
And more importantly, they had to figure out what Bi Yao wanted to do.
While those people hadn’t reacted to what had happened, Gong Yiling and Yan Chuyue quickly used the Nine-Tailed Min to remove their own Gu.
But then there was a problem. How should they get down?
Jump directly? But this was something only Murong Yun could do without any worries. They didn’t have the guts to play so big. If there was anyone who could help—
“Old Yin?” Just then, Xuan Lingling’s words suddenly interjected. “Why are you here?”
Oh, right, right!
She almost forgot about this silly dragon!
Gong Yiling quickly rushed in front of the old man and said to Xuan Lingling, “They’re here to help us. Sister Xuan, let’s go quickly!”
“Ah? Is that so?”
Xuan Lingling, still in dragon form, had two people on her back in the blink of an eye. Although she still hadn’t figured out the situation, she still said to Yin Tianchou, “Old Yin, I’ll go first.”
“Wait—” Although Yin Tianchou was under the influence of this buff, it didn’t mean his brain was gone along with his killing intent.
But Miss Gong wouldn’t let him say the rest. After hearing him say two words, she immediately interrupted him. “Old Yin, I know. We’ll be careful. We’ll be back!”
“Sister Xuan, let’s go!”
“Alright!”
This was said so smoothly and so quickly that Yin Tianchou had no chance to interject after that and could only let them fly freely.
After Xuan Lingling took off, she immediately took the two of them and flew into that deep hole. And this deep hole was not very deep. The bottom looked like a huge altar.
In the altar, there were also many of the same human soldier puppets and stone statues that were seen in the tower, and in the center of the altar was a huge coffin. The coffin was connected to the surrounding pillars by dozens of chains, and both the pillars and the coffin were covered with a special kind of talisman.
Obviously, that emperor had used all possible means for the person buried here.
He had covered the entire city with a turtle shell that was almost inaccessible, gave the key to the entrance to only one person, and completely sealed all spiritual and martial arts in the city. Finally, he used a tall tower to suppress this place, and also set up heavy talisman seals here.
So many layers of preparation were to seal Bi Yao in this place forever. One could imagine what would happen once the Heavenly Evil left this place.
