"You …" Lu Xihua was wearing a rare white dress today. Her fluffy long hair accentuated her beauty.
Unfortunately, this beauty was wasted today. Lu Xihua glared at Xuan and Sword Immortal Great Sun angrily, as if she wanted to eat them alive!
"I'm sorry!
Pavilion Master Lu Xihua, this is for the lives of millions of people, including the lives of over ten million people in Yuzhang City. We have no choice but to do this! "Sword Immortal Great Sun said shamefully.
"Hmph!" Lu Xihua snorted and didn't say anything else.
Lu Xihua knew that no matter what he said now, it would be useless. It looked like the Great Sun Sword Immortal was determined to use his life to exchange for the lives of tens of millions of people!
"Governor Zhou Yu!
We've brought the person you wanted. Tell us, what do you want to do next! "Sword Immortal Great Sun said impatiently.
"There's no rush. I need to verify her identity first!"
Zhou Yu smiled. "Give me the control of the DNA detector in the research lab. I need to verify her DNA first. If you give me a fake Lu Xihua, it'll be a huge loss for me!"
"Cunning!"
The Great Sun Sword Immortal harrumphed coldly, but he had no choice but to agree to the other party's request. He allowed the other party to take control of the detector, and at the same time, he placed Lu Xihua into the detector, allowing the other party to conduct the DNA test.
"That's right!
It's Lu Xihua's DNA data! "
Zhou Yu laughed out loud. However, on second thought, he said, "No, you guys still have to get her to release her swordmistress. That's to prove that this is her real body and not a fake one cloned from DNA!"
"Troublesome!"
Xuan frowned, but he had no choice but to comply with Zhou Yu's request. He whispered a few words into Lu Xihua's ear. Lu Xihua glared at Sword Immortal Chu Xuan angrily, but still obediently demonstrated the process of releasing and returning the swordmaiden. The angel with eight wings proved that she was the real Lu Xihua.
Now, there were no more problems with Lu Xihua's identity. Zhou Yu was very satisfied with this result. He quickly said, "Connect me to the internet and put on the gaming helmet. That's enough!"
"Let's do as Zhou Yu says!"
The Great Sun Sword Immortal ordered. Immediately, someone tied Lu Xihua to a chair and placed the gaming helmet on his head. Then, Lu Xihua's mind went into a trance and he entered the game.
"Alright, Governor Zhou Yu, this body is yours. You can come in!" the Great Sun Sword Immortal said with a livid face.
"Thank you!
The Great Sun Sword Immortal!
We will be comrades-in-arms from now on! "
Zhou Yu laughed heartily and the projection disappeared in an instant. Following that, the brain of the creature that was originally still and uncomprehending began to tremble violently. The researcher who was monitoring the situation and data of the entire creature's brain said excitedly, "A large amount of strange data that cannot be compiled is moving through the network!"
"Take off Lu Xihua's helmet right now!"
The Great Sun Sword Immortal's expression changed, and he immediately gave the order. Hence, someone immediately took off the helmet, and Lu Xihua forcibly broke free from the game.
"Great Sun Sword Immortal, what are you doing?
Have you forgotten our promise? "More than a minute later, a furious Zhou Yu appeared through the projection.
He questioned the Great Sun Sword Immortal with a crazed expression.
"I haven't forgotten!
It's just that I don't trust you! "
The Great Sun Sword Immortal snorted coldly. "How do I know that you won't destroy all the souls in the creature's brain after obtaining Lu Xihua's body?
You must first release half of the souls in the creature's brain before I can hand Lu Xihua's body over to you! "
"There's no need to worry!"
Zhou Yu said in a clear voice, "As long as I enter Lu Xihua's body, my life will be in your hands. If I still dare to not let these human souls go, you can kill me. At that time, I'll really be dead!"
"Governor Zhou, we are all smart people. There's no need to play games. This is just your side of the story!"
Xuan waved his hand. "You keep saying that you want to join us humans, but how do I know that you are sincere?
After all, we humans did wrong you in the beginning, inflicting unimaginable torture and humiliation on you. I feel that your desire to destroy the entire human race is much greater than your desire to join us! "
"If I were you, I would make the same request as you. However, when I obtain Lu Xihua's body, I will destroy all the human souls in one go … As for whether the humans will kill Lu Xihua's body … I don't care. This way, not only will humanity lose tens of millions of souls, they will also lose a swordsman who can ascend to the throne."
"Not to mention that Lu Xihua has a master like Gu Han. He will definitely not let go of the person who harmed his disciple. Who knows, there might be a large-scale civil war between the human swordsman … This kind of revenge is the cruelest revenge to the human race. At that time, the entire human race might be destroyed by my own schemes. Even if I really die, it will be a worthy death."
"Destroying the human race with one's own strength. Isn't this glory and merit even more glorious than defeating Zhuge Kongming?
After all, Zhuge Kongming fought for a thousand years and never destroyed us humans.
To be able to do what Zhuge Kongming couldn't do, this is probably the best way for you to defeat Zhuge Kongming! "
"You …" Zhou Yu's face stiffened. Xuan had obviously hit the nail on Zhou Yu's head. To Zhou Yu, destroying the tens of millions of souls in the brain after obtaining Lu Xihua's body was indeed the best way for Zhou Yu to take revenge.
"Hahaha … Chu Xuan, you are indeed amazing … I thought I could deceive the world, but you still saw through me!"
Zhou Yu's expression returned to normal after the stiffening. He then laughed loudly. "That's right, this is my plan. I didn't expect you to find out in the end.
If so, then let these tens of millions of human souls be buried with Zhou Yu!
Zhou Yu can be considered to have avenged the hundreds of years of hatred! "
"Wait!"
Xuan stood in front of Zhou Yu and stopped him. "You only control tens of millions of human souls in the brain. Even if you kill all these souls, it's just a few strands of hair to us humans. As long as we use advanced biotechnology, tens of millions of human souls can be recovered in ten years. This won't hurt us humans, do you understand?"
"Hmph!
Don't try to trick me, Xuan. These tens of millions of human souls may not be important to you, but don't forget, there are over ten thousand swordsman souls trapped in the game … there's even the soul of a Sword Saint level swordsman. If these swordsman souls die, it'll be enough to hurt you humans! "Zhou Yu said through gritted teeth.
"It's just ten thousand swordsman souls. We humans have over two hundred thousand swordsman souls. Losing ten thousand isn't a big deal.
As for that Divine Sword Tier sword wielder, he is already seventy-six years old this year. He can fight for another ten years at most. If such a Divine Sword Tier sword wielder dies, then so be it. We humans can bear the loss. At most, the next few years will be tough, but as long as we wait for another ten years, we humans will be able to recover completely. Your mutual destruction is just another ten years for us humans to hide in the base city. Don't you think you're being too arrogant if you think you can destroy us humans like this! "
"You … you …" Zhou Yu's expression changed again. He didn't think his pair of trump cards would become one against three with just a few words from Xuan. It was as if killing millions of people wasn't a big deal at all.
But Zhou Yu was Zhou Yu. After a brief moment of confusion, he quickly calmed down. His expression changed a few times before he finally calmed down. He sneered, "I was almost fooled by you. If you humans really don't care about the souls in the brain, then why did you have to fall out with Guhan? Why did you have to help me capture Lu Xihua?"
"Don't you know this means completely falling out with the strongest person in the future, Poseidon?
Aren't you afraid that Guhan will take revenge on Yanjing City after he becomes the Emperor?
When that time comes, Yanjing City will really be finished. No one in Yanjing City is a match for Guhan. The dimensional barrier you used to defend against Yuan Kou will be completely useless against a human like Guhan. All of you will die under Guhan's sword! "
Zhou Yu said crazily. It was as if he could already see the scene of Guhan slaughtering the entire Yanjing City.
"Sigh!
We didn't understand this from the start. We only understood it after Guhan left! "
Xuan and Great Sun Sword Immortal said bitterly. "At that time, we were too worried about the lives of tens of millions of people. We didn't carefully evaluate whether the lives of tens of millions of people were worth the life of Poseidon."
"We didn't expect Guhan's temper to be so violent. Not only did none of the tens of millions of people on the streets submit to Guhan, they instead ignited his anger, resulting in the current situation!"
"Now that I think about it, the three of us should sit down and have a good talk. Two heads are better than one. If the three of us had a good talk, I'm afraid we would have exposed your true colors long ago, and we wouldn't have fallen into such an embarrassing situation!"
Xuan said with a sigh. As soon as Xuan finished, everyone including Great Sun Sword Immortal was filled with unwillingness and regret. They regretted that Yanjing City had fallen out with Guhan so rashly.
Indeed, if both sides had calmed down and had a good talk, the ending would have been completely different.
"If that's the case, why did you still capture Lu Xihua?
Wouldn't that ruin your relationship with Gu Han even more? "Zhou Yu retorted.
"Even if we didn't capture Lu Xihua, it wouldn't help. Guhan and Yanjing City are already enemies. No one can change that.
If Lu Xihua returns to Guhan's side, Guhan will have the power of two Emperor Sword level sword-bearers. Yanjing City will probably be suppressed by Guhan forever. We won't be able to live either. "
"Instead of that, why don't we turn Guhan's two Emperor Sword level sword-bearers into one Emperor Sword level sword-bearers each? That's the only chance of survival for Yanjing City!" Xuan said seriously.
