"I understand what you mean!
You want me to take over Lu Xihua's body, right? "
Zhou Yu finally understood what Xuan meant. Only an Emperor Sword wielder could defend against Guhan's revenge in the future.
And at this time, although Yan Jing City had nine Immortal Sword level sword wielders, there was not a single one of them that could be molded. Once Dao Haotian Sword Emperor passed away, Yan Jing City would definitely face the bitter revenge of Gu Han.
Based on Gu Han's attitude of not caring about the lives of ordinary people and casually going on a killing spree, when the time came, there would probably be a large number of deaths in Yan Jing City, and these Immortal sword wielders who had surrounded him that day would not be able to get away with it.
Hence, in the future, Yanjing City would need an Emperor Sword level sword-wielder to be able to fight against Gu Han and protect the lives of the sword-wielders in Yanjing City.
The one who had the highest chance of becoming an Emperor Sword wielder was Guhan's disciple Lu Xihua. Lu Xihua was Yanjing City's trump card to protect itself in the future … But the problem was that Lu Xihua and Guhan were very close. They were like father and daughter. Lu Xihua was also a very determined and determined person. She would never betray Guhan.
At this point, everything was very clear. Just like what Zhou Yu had said, the situation had been completely reversed.
Previously, it was Zhou Yu who wanted to take over Lu Xihua's body. Now it was Yanjing City who wanted Zhou Yu to take over Lu Xihua's body. Only then could they borrow Lu Xihua's power to protect them.
"Hahahaha!
No wonder you captured Lu Xihua immediately. You've been planning on taking over Lu Xihua all along! "
Zhou Yu laughed out loud. The Great Sun Sword Immortal and the humans around him looked ashamed. Only Xuan was calm and composed. He didn't look ashamed at all, because this was all within his calculations.
"Ridiculous!
What a joke!
Now it's you humans who want Zhou Yu to take over Lu Xihua's body. I've never seen something so funny in my life! "Zhou Yu laughed so hard his stomach hurt … if he had a stomach.
"Laozi said that heaven and earth are heartless and treat all living things as dogs. In my opinion, this human is heartless and treats humans as dogs.
This is the nature of humans. Even after thousands of years have passed, we still can't change it. We still can't forget to scheme and kill each other. These humans are really laughable. They should have gone extinct long ago. Hahahaha! "
"Done laughing?"
Xuan waited for Zhou Yu to calm down before continuing, "You have two paths in front of you. Either you destroy all the souls in the brain, and we destroy the brain, then ask Miss Ling to be the mediator and bring Lu Xihua to apologize to Guhan. If necessary, we'll pay with our lives. This way, we can exchange for Yanjing's future peace."
"Why don't you release the tens of millions of human souls right now, and I'll give Lucihua's body to you. Then, you'll sincerely become our comrade and the human's sword wielder.
In the future, we'll surround and kill Guhan in the name of Guhan slaughtering innocent people. We'll work together to kill Guhan and bring peace to the world! "
"These two paths are in front of you. Which one to choose is up to you!" Xuan said calmly.
"This …" Zhou Yu fell silent. His heart was in a mess. If he chose the first option, humanity would definitely suffer some damage for a while. However, as long as Gu Han could reconcile with Yan Jing City, humanity would only need to rest and recuperate for ten years. Then, he, Zhou Yu, would only need to wait for ten years before he could take his revenge.
If he chose the second path, he could make use of these Immortal sword tier sword-bearers' desire to live to temporarily feign civility with the humans and join the humans first... Although the humans would definitely not believe him, the humans still needed his strength to fight against the Solid Cold. If he played his cards right, he might be able to cause even greater losses to the humans in the future. Perhaps even the extinction of the human race was not a certainty.
Of course, the most important thing was that Zhou Yu did not want to die. He wanted to continue living.
After careful consideration, Zhou Yu finally gave his answer, "I can help you deal with Guhan!"
"Very good!
A wise choice. Then, do as I said and release all the human souls! "Xuan said calmly.
"It's impossible to release all of them. We're not idiots. Why make such a meaningless request?" Zhou Yu smiled.
"Alright!
You can use the souls of all Yuzhang citizens as your bargaining chip. After you fuse with Lucihua's body, you can release the souls of Yuzhang citizens! "Xuan said.
"No!"
Zhou Yu shook his head. "Don't try to play tricks with me. Gu Han is from Yuzhang City. Your Yan Jing City and Yuzhang City have long been at loggerheads. Deep down, you might be hoping that I'll kill all the souls of Yuzhang City's people. Such a hostage is not reliable."
"Then what do you say?" Xuan asked with a frown.
"How about this. I'll release the souls of Yanjing citizens first. After I fuse with Xuan, I'll release the souls of the remaining humans. This is the fairest and safest plan!" Zhou Yu replied.
"Alright!
It's decided! "Xuan did not bargain further and nodded in agreement.
"Great!
Zhou Yu will fulfill his promise now! "
After Zhou Yu said that, the creature's brain vibrated again. The monitoring room saw countless data being transmitted rapidly through the network. Soon, it returned to the body of its original owner.
"They're revived!
Sir!
Some of the unconscious players have woken up! "
"Sir!
All the life signals are waking up! "
"Sir!
The Swordbearers have woken up! "
Reports from all over Yanjing arrived in the control room. The players who were trapped in the game had woken up one by one. In a short five minutes, almost all the players had woken up and returned to their normal lives.
"How is it?
Is my gift enough? "Zhou Yu asked with a smile.
"It's time for you to fulfill your promise!"
"Alright!" Xuan nodded and ordered, "Put the helmet back on Lu Xihua!"
The gaming helmet reappeared on Lu Xihua's head, but it wasn't removed this time. After a series of data transmissions, Lu Xihua's helmet suddenly released a cloud of black smoke. Xuan ordered his men to take off Lu Xihua's helmet, and saw Lu Xihua's clear eyes.
"Are you Lu Xihua or Zhou Yu?" Xuan asked looking at the pair of eyes.
"I'm Zhou Yu!
I finally have a normal human body! "
Zhou Yu said excitedly. However, his voice trembled violently as he spoke. It was like a motorcycle that was starting up. It was not a voice that a normal person would make!
"Why?
Why is my voice like this? "
Only then did Zhou Yu realize that his voice was extremely abnormal. At the same time, when he tried to move his arms and legs, he suddenly felt a sense of helplessness, as if his limbs were not his own!
"Why?
Why can't I control this body? "Zhou Yu asked in confusion.
"What's so strange about that? Your soul has just taken over this body. It's like a newbie taking over a new car. You have to experience it for a while before you can use it as you please!" Xuan sneered.
"That's right!
I see! "Zhou Yu nodded, accepting Xuan's explanation.
"Very good. Since you've achieved your goal, let's follow our agreement and release the remaining humans!" Xuan said.
"There's no rush!"
Zhou Yu smiled, "I promised you that I would completely fuse with this body. So before I can control Lu Xihua's Swordmistress, I will not release the remaining human souls!"
"Are you trying to violate our agreement?" Xuan's expression changed as he questioned angrily.
"So what if I'm going against our agreement?"
Zhou Yu … oh … Lu Xihua sneered, "To tell you the truth, I've left 1/4 of my soul in the creature's brain. Now the creature's brain is still under my control. The rest of the souls are all my trump cards. Before I kill Zhuge Kongming and Gu Han, these souls will stay in the creature's brain."
"I don't believe your bullshit about being willing to fight alongside me. I can only guarantee my safety if I have something in my hands!" Zhou Yu burst into laughter.
"Is that so?
Do you really think that your soul is in a safe body? "
Xuan didn't show any anger after hearing Zhou Yu's words. Instead, he revealed a strange smile and put a brand new gaming helmet on Zhou Yu's head.
"You …" Zhou Yu's instincts told him that something was not right. At that moment, he felt an intense pain in his soul. A strange power suddenly came from Lu Xihua's brain. The power was so strong that it shattered Zhou Yu's soul into pieces in an instant. The power then flowed through the gaming helmet and into the biological computer, wiping out Zhou Yu's soul that was left in the biological computer.
Finally, a tiny dimensional vortex appeared in the research room. It only lasted for a few seconds before it dissipated. However, this meant that Zhou Yu was completely dead.
"Hurry!
Hurry up and cut off Lu Yin's head!
It'll be too late! "
Xuan said hurriedly. A few doctors rushed in and cut off Lu Xihua's head. At the same time, two medical pods were pushed in. The severed head and body were placed in two different medical pods.
The whole process took less than a minute.
"Oh my god!
Guhan is a madman. I can't believe he came up with such a plan! "
Xuan was sweating profusely after seeing everything was done. It was as if he was fished out of the sea.
At the same time, a Void Gate opened, and a man and a woman walked out of the Void Gate!
