61. You Jump
“So—” Gong Yiling wasn’t interested in Murong Jing’s thoughts. In her words, she was still paying attention to whether there was anything special on this floor.
For example, were there any altars, any coffins?
A big boss like this, who used someone else’s body to control things, she had gone to so much trouble, it must be for a special purpose.
“You’ve come back to free yourself from the cage?” Gong Yiling asked calmly. “But Your Highness, have you ever thought that this is a cage where you can’t use spiritual energy? Even if we do nothing, we just need to have Sister Xuan take us out of here, and you can’t do anything.”
“Unless you have a way to break this cage, but do you?”
“A way?” Bi Yao suddenly laughed heartily. “This is really the most interesting question I’ve ever heard. Why don’t you ask if that Heavenly Evil is still in my body?”
“Because the answer is obvious, isn’t it?” Gong Yiling said, “To put your own blood qi and divine sense into a pill to bewitch people, although the form is a bit different from the Heavenly Evil’s control of others, the final effect is the same.”
“Miss Bi,” Yan Chuyue also retorted, “ten thousand years have passed. Can you be sure that your hatred for your brother is really all from yourself, and not from the Heavenly Evil?”
Generally, this kind of thing would inevitably have a reversal, especially with the existence of a time bomb like the Heavenly Evil. The emotions at this moment might not be absolutely real emotions.
However, Bi Yao clearly would not believe this.
“You don’t understand my royal brother, yet you pretend to understand everything.” She turned her back to them. “But have you ever thought about who created this Heavenly Evil in the first place?”
As soon as she finished speaking, before Gong Yiling and the others could say anything, Bi Yao suddenly pressed something on the wall, and a door immediately appeared on the high wall she was facing.
“You!?”
“To answer that young lady’s question just now,” Bi Yao turned her head and smiled calmly. “The things he left behind, not only he can use.”
Hearing these words, Gong Yiling suddenly remembered what she had seen outside the tower, the weapon platforms rotating on the tower.
Could it be that Bi Yao was planning to use this thing to completely break through this turtle shell?
“No, we can’t let her succeed!”
Gong Yiling immediately turned to Xuan Lingling and said, “Sister Xuan, if you can control that guy, control him. If you can’t, then smash those things outside to pieces!”
“Ah… wrecking the house, right? I’m good at this!”
Hearing this instruction, Xuan Lingling became excited.
She had always been sensitive to this kind of thing. After her own family’s incident, she was very keen on experimenting with wrecking houses, in order to find the culprit and wreck her house too.
Now that she could cause destruction—then she would enjoy it to the fullest!
A white light flashed, and Xuan Lingling immediately turned into a giant dragon with a green back and a white belly, circling the outer circle of the tower.
Her dragon eyes quickly captured the platform outside the tower, and she saw that Bi Yao was indeed already standing beside a mechanical cannon.
“Roar!!!”
The dragon’s roar shook the heavens and the earth, and then the spiritual energy of the Profound Extreme Saint gradually condensed in her lower jaw. But the next moment, a huge palm suddenly stretched out from the side and slapped heavily on Xuan Lingling’s body.
This sudden attack should be the tower’s own self-defense system. Xuan Lingling’s thunderous attack was instead treated as an enemy by the tower.
However, despite being attacked, Xuan Lingling still spat out that dragon’s breath, which was completely condensed from spatial spiritual energy.
Of course, the accuracy of this thing would definitely not be the same as before, so Xuan Lingling very domineeringly did a proper house-wrecking operation.
She fired a cannon directly at the first floor of this tower. This extremely powerful mouthful of saliva actually broke through the first floor of the tower.
Yes, Gong Yiling, who had just walked to the door to see what was going on outside, was almost shaken out of the building by this tremor. When she looked closely, she couldn’t help but exclaim.
This cannon went straight through, and the spatial spiritual energy basically directly ignored the immeasurable meteorite iron inner layer embedded in the wooden outer wall. This meant that I was invalidating your magic immunity.
After this special effect was erased, the outer wall was only a little harder than a mid-grade spiritual artifact. It couldn’t resist the tearing of the spatial spiritual energy at all, and even the mechanism room in the center was blasted to pieces.
Next, as long as you thought about it, you would know that this situation—was quite fatal!
Now the entire tower had become shaky. If this thing really collapsed, wouldn’t they, who were still on top, be buried alive?
Fortunately, after the bottom-level mechanism room was hit, the weapons on the high-level platform also seemed to be affected. Bi Yao was unable to control these giant cannons for a while, which could be considered a roundabout way of saving the country.
It was just that the price of this roundabout way of saving the country was a bit too exaggerated.
“Yiling!” Feeling the increasingly intense tremors, Yan Chuyue didn’t dare to take large strides, but could only stick to the wall and walk to Gong Yiling’s side. “What should we do now?”
Gong Yiling looked at the collapsing weapon platform outside and was a bit concerned about Bi Yao’s current situation, but before that, she really had to find a way to get down first.
If she was buried inside, it would not be a happy thing.
Eh—wait!
Looking out at the big hole on the first floor, Gong Yiling suddenly had an idea.
But this idea… its execution was very dependent on luck, or rather, its success was completely up to fate.
But never mind!
Thinking of this, Gong Yiling turned around and solemnly patted her shoulder. “Chuyue, in a moment, count to three, and we’ll reenact the classic Titanic operation.”
“What, the ‘you jump, I jump’ one?”
“That’s right!”
Hearing Gong Yiling’s words, Yan Chuyue suddenly understood what she was thinking and couldn’t help but twitch her lips. “Are you sure we should do this?”
“There’s no other way now. Let’s just treat a dead horse as a living one.” Gong Yiling shrugged helplessly. “Anyway, if we die, we can at least take each other down with us—”
Although the situation was critical, and the entire tower was shaking violently, Yan Chuyue still smiled and interrupted her. “Who wants to take you down with me?”
“Then—”
“We still have a lot of things to do, don’t we?” Yan Chuyue stood beside her and said with a smile, “I believe in your judgment.”
“Then…”
“Then—”
“Let’s try it!”
