Chapter 973 The End Battle of the Altar(2/2)
He wanted to pull back the Broken Sword, but found that his body seemed to be imprisoned and could not move.
Along his neck, golden chain-like lines emerged, like poisonous snakes, tightly wrapped around his throat, making him difficult to breathe.
"Cough cough..." The secret guard commander coughed in pain. He raised his head with difficulty, looked at Xi Yu, and said hoarsely: "Sir... I... can't help myself..."
Seeing this, Cai Wenshuang immediately took a step forward and tore open the collar of the secret guard's clothes.
At his heart, a bronze pattern was imprinted, exactly the same as the pattern on Xi Wujiang's body!
Cai Wen's pupils shrank suddenly and he took a breath: "No wonder you can live to this day! The 300 people who died in the "suppression of bandits" in the Secret Guard Camp twenty years ago..."
She didn't finish her words, but the meaning was self-evident.
Twenty years ago, 300 elite elites from the Secret Guard Camp of the Xi family "suppressed bandits and died in the line of duty". Now, the Secret Guard commander is standing here alive, with the same patterns as Xi Wujiang.
What kind of secrets are hidden in this?
Xi Yu looked at the secret guard commander and said slowly: "You are an orphan. I raised you, taught you martial arts, and treated you like a brother. But you betrayed me and surrendered to that woman!"
"Sir, I..." The secret guard commander wanted to explain, but found that he could not say anything.
He could only close his eyes in pain and let the golden chains get tighter and tighter.
"Who is it?" Cai Wenshuang asked sternly, his tone full of murderous intent.
Xi Yu took a deep breath and slowly uttered two words: "Purple-clothed."
Cai Wenshuang clenched his fists, his nails embedded in the flesh deeply, and blood flowed down his fingertips.
She stared at the secret guard commander and said word by word: "Twenty years ago, all three hundred secret guards were her..."
The secret guard nodded in pain, and two lines of blood and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.
"I'm going to kill her!" Cai Wenshuang said gritting his teeth, with raging rage in his eyes.
Xi Yu grabbed Cai Wenshuang's hand, shook his head, and said, "It's not the time yet. We must leave here first."
"But..." Cai Wenshuang wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Xi Yu.
"Believe me." Xi Yu looked at Cai Wenshuang with determination and trust in his eyes, "I will avenge you and those dead brothers!"
He held Cai Wenshuang's hand tightly, turned his eyes to the terrifying figure slowly emerging at the crack of the altar, and said word by word: "Here you come..."
"roar--!"
A roar that was not like a human voice shocked the entire altar to shaking.
A monster slowly crawled out of the crack.
It is called a monster because it is really hard to describe - the three heads are in three forms: old, middle and green, and the six eyes are shining with scarlet light, like evil ghosts in the abyss of hell.
Its body is bloated and twisted, covered with sticky black liquid, and emits a disgusting fishy smell.
Some of the six arms had sharp bone spurs, while others were covered with suction cups like octopus, waving them randomly, causing a gust of fishy wind.
This...is the monster that combines three souls?!
Cai Wenshuang felt a sensation in her stomach and almost vomited it out.
She had never seen such a terrifying scene, her heartbeats like a drum, and her hands and feet were cold.
"Wenshuang!"
Xi Yu shouted loudly, pulling Cai Wenshuang back to reality from his horror.
He pushed her to the edge of the altar with such great force that Cai Wenshuang staggered a few steps and almost fell down.
"Use a pendant! Activate the 'Eternal Night Formation' of the Secret Guard Camp!" Xi Yu's voice was hoarse and rapid, and every word seemed to be squeezed out of his throat.
Cai Wenshuang then remembered that she was still holding the split pendant in her hand. She looked down and saw the four blood words "Shi Cai Yongqi" on the inside of the pendant, which were emitting a faint red light at this moment, as if there was life beating.
Before she could think too much, Cai Wenshuang held the pendant tightly, and the mantra that her father had taught her appeared in her mind. She closed her eyes, focused all her strength on the pendant, and recited it loudly.
At the same time, Xi Yu was in an unprecedented crisis.
The monster seemed to be particularly sensitive to the aura of Xi Yu. As soon as it appeared, it focused all its attacks on him.
Six arms came like a storm, blocking all the routes of Xi Yu's dodging.
"Sir! Be careful!" The secret guard commander roared and wanted to come forward to help, but was shaken by the black air emitted from the monster, hitting heavily on the stone wall, spewing out a mouthful of blood.
Xi Yu knew very well that his condition was at this moment, and his serious injury had not healed, so he could not compete with this monster head-on.
He could only rely on his exquisite body skills to barely dodge in the monster's attack gap, looking for an opportunity to counterattack.
The long sword in his hand had already broken, leaving only a broken blade.
Although the broken blade is short, it is still sharp.
Xi Yu poured his internal force on the broken blade, and a faint green light shone on the sword body.
He looked at a gap, flashed his body, avoiding the monster's sharp claws, and the broken blade pierced the monster's chest!
"Puff!"
The broken blade pierced into the monster's bloated body, but it was like a ball of cotton piercing it, causing no substantial damage.
On the contrary, the black liquid on the monster's body spread along the broken blade, trying to corrode Xi Yu's arms.
Xi Yu frowned, made a quick decision, abandoned the broken blade, and pulled back.
"Roar!" The monster seemed to be angry, and the three heads roared deafeningly at the same time, and six arms waved wildly, pounced on Xi Yu.
Seeing that Xi Yu was about to be torn apart by the monster's sharp claws, the secret guard suddenly got up from the ground and blocked Xi Yu.
"Sir! Go quickly!" He yelled, and used all his strength to hold one of the monster's arms.
The monster suffered a pain and swung the secret guards and flew out.
The body of the secret guards drew an arc in the air, hitting heavily on the stone pillar in the center of the altar, making a muffled sound.
Xi Yu took this opportunity and flashed his body and came to the side of the secret guard commander.
He reached out to help the secret guards up, but found that his chest had been pierced by the monster's claws and blood was flowing out.
"Sir..." The secret guard's eyes were dissipated, but a relief smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Xi Yu felt ache in his heart
At this moment, Xi Yu's eyes accidentally swept across the chest of the secret guard.
Under the fragments of the heart protection mirror, he saw something - half a jade pendant!
This half of the jade pendant is in perfect harmony with the fragments given to him by Cai’s father back then!
Xi Yu was shocked. Before he could think about it, the secret guard suddenly moved.
He raised his hand suddenly and stabbed the broken sword in his hand into his throat!
Blood gushed out, splashing Xi Yu's face.
Xi Yu widened his eyes, unable to believe what was happening in front of him.
"Big...man..." The secret guard commander used his last strength to stuff the half of the jade pendant in his hand into Xi Yu's hand, and said a word in a vague way: "Hurry..."
The monster let out a shrill roar, and its huge body trembled suddenly, as if it was hit by an invisible force.
It waved its sharp claws randomly, pulling the chains wrapped around it rustled.
The secret guard commander was thrown out by this huge force, like a kite with broken strings, hitting the stone pillar in the center of the altar.
A dull collision echoed on the altar, gravel splashing and dust filled the air.
Xi Yu's heart tightened. He didn't care about the monster's counterattack and rushed to the side of the secret guard commander.
The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, which made him feel suffocated.
A shocking blood hole in the chest of the secret guard was gushing out blood, dyeing the collar of the secret guard's clothes red and the bluestone slabs on the altar red.
"Sir..." The secret guard commander opened his mouth with difficulty, his voice as weak as a mosquito hum.
He raised his hand hard, trying to grab Xi Yu's sleeve, but he hung down weakly.
His eyes were dissipated and his consciousness had begun to blur, but there was a smile of relief on the corner of his mouth, as if he had completed some mission and removed the burden.
Xi Yu felt a cramp in his heart. He reached out to help the secret guard commander up. His fingertips touched his cold skin, and a chill instantly spread throughout his body.
At this moment, his eyes accidentally swept over the heart protection mirror on the chest of the dark guard commander.
The heart protection mirror has broken, and under the fragments, a warm luster is revealed - half a piece of jade pendant!
This half of the jade pendant is white all over and exudes a faint spiritual energy. It is intimate with the fragment that Cai’s father gave him back then!
Xi Yu's pupils shrank suddenly, and a storm arose in his heart.
Could it be...Is there any unknown connection between the Cai family and the Secret Guard?
