"I didn't expect that I, Tongtian, would be defeated by a Nurturing Pouch!"
After listening to Guhan's explanation, Tongtian looked up at the sky and sighed. "I've already expected that you would be my biggest obstacle after 1,000 years. Therefore, before I was sealed, I threw Qingping out. At the same time, I told her to lurk around you as soon as you appeared. At that time, she could coordinate with me and help me kill you, my evil disciple."
"I didn't expect that Qingpin would be the cause of my success and failure. I still lost to Qingpin in the end, and I actually gave it to you personally!" Tongtian sighed.
It turned out that the reason why Qingpin appeared beside Guhan was actually arranged by Tongtian in advance.
He originally thought that Qingping Sword could become his trump card in the end, but he didn't expect that this trump card would pierce through his heart instead!
It was Sect Leader Tongtian himself who gave his most precious sword to Gu Han. Only Sect Leader Tongtian himself knew how helpless Sect Leader Tongtian's words were.
"Then how did you gain control of Qingping? If I'm not wrong, it's still my Qingping who is controlling Qingping Sword now!" Tongtian looked at Qingping Sword in front of him and said gloomily.
"Nothing, it's just a mandatory order!"
Guhan said lightly, "Master, since you know the sword bearer so well, you should know that as long as the sword mark is still in my body, as long as I give a mandatory order to the sword mark, the Sword Lady must act according to my will, no matter what her will is."
"Mandatory order … I actually forgot about this …" Hearing what Guhan said, Tongtian's face suddenly changed. It seemed that he really forgot about this variable.
"Actually, you can't blame me. It's not that you forgot about this design, but that your Qingping forgot about this setting …" Guhan looked at Qingpin Sword lovingly. "I treat Qingpin sincerely, and I'm never willing to give any order that goes against Qingpin's own will.
In the 20 years that I've been with Qingpin, I've never given any mandatory order to Qingpin, so your Qingping probably forgot about this. Otherwise, she would definitely ask Master to trap her in the dimensional space instead of directly stabbing the sword into that corpse! "
"I see!"
Tongtian smiled bitterly. At the same time, his eyes fell on the headless corpse, and he asked curiously, "This corpse shouldn't be yours, right? Whose corpse is it?"
"It's a person named Wuzhang Shifang. Master, have you ever heard of this name?" Guhan asked Tongtian with a sigh.
"Wuzhang Shifang?" Tongtian was stunned for a moment, and then he shook his head. "He's just a nobody. How can I recognize him?"
"But such a nobody became the key to killing you, Master!" Guhan let out a long sigh and could not help but recall what happened more than 20 days ago.
No one knew that on the night they arrived in Yamato City, Guhan did not stay in his room. Instead, he had been sitting in Wuzhang Shifang's room and chatting with Wuzhang Shifang for a whole night.
He had already understood the change of the Poor Sword and decided to beat him at his own game. The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Just like what happened today, he suddenly appeared from an impossible place and caught Sect Leader Tongtian off guard.
But where exactly did he come from? How could he catch a powerhouse like Sect Leader Tongtian by surprise?
In the end, Guhan fixed his eyes on his dimensional pocket. Because living people could not survive in the dimensional pocket, Guhan believed that once he suddenly came out of the dimensional pocket, Tongtian would not be able to detect it, let alone guard against it.
However, in order to achieve this goal, Gu Han had to hide in the dimensional pocket in advance, and outside the dimensional pocket, there had to be someone who could cooperate with him to make Sect Leader Tongtian believe that the person outside was the real him.
Therefore, Gu Han went to Wu Zhangshifang. This time, Gu Han did not hide anything. He told Wu Zhangshifang everything about Sect Leader Tongtian, including all his plans. Finally, he asked Wu Zhangshifang to decide whether he wanted to help Gu Han at the risk of losing his life.
In fact, Guhan's decision itself was also taking a huge risk. After all, Wuzhang Shifang was a traitor who betrayed mankind. If Wuzhang Shifang revealed all this to the people of that organization, Guhan's plan would fall short of success.
In the end, Wuzhang Shifang did not let Guhan down. After a long hesitation, Wuzhang Shifang finally nodded and agreed to Guhan's request, allowing Guhan to cut off his head.
What happened next was easy. At the edge of Fusang Island, Liunian Ling had already waited there in advance according to Guhan's arrangement to bring back all the humans and sword-bearers from Yamato City … However, in order to fool others, Liunian Ling directly changed into Song Yifei's appearance under Song Yifei's manipulation. In this way, outsiders and spies would think that Song Yifei was returning to Yanjing City with these humans. Anyway, Liunian Ling had always been elusive. Occasionally disappearing for a day would not arouse others' suspicion.
Song Yifei and Guhan returned to Yamato City together. Song Yifei changed into Wuzhang Shifang's appearance and continued to stay in Yamato City. Except for issuing some basic orders, he had been staying in his room. Occasionally, he would show up to show his existence.
Because a large number of sword-bearers had left Yamato City, Wuzhang Shifang's passive behavior seemed very normal.
There was no doubt that it was because his dream had suffered a huge blow and he needed time to recover.
In fact, no one knew that the real Wuzhang Shifang's body and head had already been separated.
The head was kept in a medical cabin, while the body was kept in a dimensional pocket.
When Incongruence Goddess forced Guhan to change his clothes, Guhan had already keenly sensed that the enemy was about to make a move. At the same time, it was also the most critical moment of Guhan's plan.
Guhan used the excuse that he needed to take off his clothes as an excuse to send Incongruence Goddess away. Then, he cut off his head at lightning speed and threw his body into his dimensional pocket. At the same time, he fused Wuzhang Shifang's body and his head together.
This seemingly inconceivable and frightening operation was actually a very simple task in Gu Han's hands. He only needed to use his consciousness fragments to control the nanomachines to stitch the head and the body together.
For Guhan, the real problem was how to control Wuzhang Shifang's body to fight.
The reason Guhan wanted to use Wuzhang Shifang's body was for the sword marks and sword essences in Wuzhang Shifang's body.
If that was not the case, Guhan could use an ordinary person's corpse. However, this corpse could not simulate the strength that an Emperor Sword sword-bearer should have. Moreover, there would be no sword marks in the body. This would not deceive the Grandmaster of Heaven. Therefore, Guhan had to use the body of an Immortal Sword sword-bearer.
However, there was another problem. Although this body was controlled by Guhan, the sword marks and sword essences in the body could not be used by Guhan. This was because Wuzhang Shifang's sword marks were connected to Wuzhang Shifang's soul. This was something that Guhan could not imitate.
In the end, Wuzhang Shifang could only make a greater sacrifice. He took a risk and let Guhan take out his brain. Then, Guhan placed it in his abdominal cavity. At the same time, he connected the eye nerves in Guhan's head. In this way, Wuzhang Shifang could fight the Grandmaster of Heaven with Guhan's head on his neck.
The inspiration for this idea came from the story of the Xingtian Grand Wizard in the Sage Relic. Without a head, he used his belly as his head to fight the Celestial Emperor. It happened to be used by Guhan in this matter.
However, in this way, Wuzhang Shifang would have to take a great risk.
According to Guhan's speculation, as long as the Grandmaster of Heaven still wanted to get the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords, he would not kill him directly. He would definitely keep him alive.
However, the Grandmaster of Heaven might only keep his head and destroy his body to completely destroy the possibility of Guhan's counterattack.
In this case, the brain in the body's belly would be in a fatal danger. Although Guhan had left a part of Wuzhang Shifang's brain and soul in the dimensional pocket in advance, just like when he repaired Lu Xihua, Guhan could create a new body for Wuzhang Shifang.
However, the destruction of a large number of souls was a fatal thing for the old Wuzhang Shifang. Even if he was repaired later, it would be impossible for him to return to his previous state. He would become even older.
More importantly, he would completely lose his sword marks and sword essences, and become an ordinary person from then on … The reason why Lu Xihua could be resurrected to his complete state was that Mingyuan Jiandi secretly protected Lu Xihua's most important Purple Mansion.
However, at that time, Guhan would not be able to protect Wuzhang Shifang's Purple Mansion.
In the end, Wuzhang Shifang agreed to Guhan's request without hesitation. There was the most incredible deceptive trick in history. The head and body that were split into two by the Grandmaster of Heaven actually belonged to two different sword-bearers, while the real body had been staying in the dimensional pocket.
What happened next was needless to say. Guhan tricked the Grandmaster of Heaven into letting him open the dimensional pocket. Then, under the control of the fragments of consciousness and soul that Guhan deliberately left in his body, his body directly came out with the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords and launched the most fatal blow to the Grandmaster of Heaven, who was caught off guard and completely unprepared.
It was precisely because of this shocking blow that the history of the entire world changed at this moment.
