long night walk

Chapter 1663 Killing Water

Amid the violent sounds of the river whistling and the sword ringing, the old man's face showed a look of fear and panic. Yan Gui also turned into human parchment in an instant, and clung to Bailian's arms as if he was trying to survive.

Both of them could not understand why the group that was originally fighting against the strange Ayiwu suddenly cut off its own life. The two of them attacked and surrounded the ghost ship under the river at the same time.

Bailian held the sword in both hands, with his body in front and the sword behind. He used his own flesh and blood to shatter the power of numerous rules.

The body of the ghost ship under the river that has fallen into the crystallization will become extremely hard and cannot be conquered by any human means. Bailian and Cangnanyi will not be able to conquer it if they stay in it. Instead, they will be gradually eaten away and assimilated into crystals.

However, the only ones who can conquer its protective shell and kill it are the beings at the dominant level. But in an order where rules conflict with the laws of rules, the River Lord cannot invade its territory at will.

But no one had ever thought that Bailian would be able to convince Aiwu to cooperate with him.

Aiwu controlled the sovereignty and poured all the power of rules into Bailian's sword, but the rules of the ghost ship under the river did not absolutely exclude Bailian's body from approaching.

He used his strong body to break through the layers of flexible and invisible rule-based domain space and easily arrived at the core of the ghost ship under the river.

However, there was not enough time for the ghost ship under the river to devour and assimilate Bailian's body.

In an instant, the huge and solid crystal was deeply penetrated like tofu by the sword of rules that seemed to carry the power of ten thousand acres.

The scarlet crystal boulder was extremely huge, and the Tiance Junshan Sword was limited in length, so it could not penetrate deeply into the crystal.

But at the moment the sword penetrated, the surging dark river contained in the sword turned into countless surging blue water waves, which flowed endlessly, like a mountain pouring down, unstoppable, releasing amazing power, and the water blue waves rolled, overlapping in the crystal to form thousands of layers of waves, as if to destroy everything that stood in its way.

The water surged and tumbled in the crystals, erupting with a sound like the rolling thunder of a tsunami, the momentum was deep and shocking.

The pale little baby sleeping in the scarlet crystal boulder suddenly opened its dark eyes. Its peaceful expression suddenly became extremely miserable, and thick black liquid continued to flow out of its eyes.

But soon, its small and pale body was swept away by the river water, and its flesh and blood disappeared completely, turning into white bones that were shattered in the crystal.

Then the entire hull collapsed rapidly like some kind of country, and then a new invisible force was quickly established and formed.

Countless spots of light formed naturally, and with an indescribable strange power, they gathered towards Bailian's brows.

After doing all this, Bailian turned his head away, rejecting the gift from this nameless world.

A human face appeared on the human skin paper draped between Bailian's arms, and that face showed a confused and puzzled look.

In this world, there are very few people who can truly kill the master-level monsters.

Even if there really were dominant beings killing each other in a long struggle, resulting in the death and silence of one side, ordinary monsters like them would never have the chance to see one in their lifetime.

Therefore, she had no idea what would happen after killing a dominant-level monster.

It was not until this moment that she realized that the truth of killing the master was the same as the truth of devouring the monsters of the same race.

Kill the master and gain all the authority and power of rules of the master monsters!

And the gathered light is the authority and rules inherited by the one who killed the ghost ship under the river and left behind the killer.

But why did he reject this light?

Is it because beneath the temptation of this huge power, there are some other unknown dangers hidden?

Her doubts had not yet been answered, so she watched Bailian blow lightly at the condensed light.

The light was like a weightless dandelion, floating towards her.

In this world, sometimes the communication of consciousness between monsters does not require words.

Almost in an instant, Yan Gui received information about Bailian's intentions.

But she couldn't understand it at all, couldn't comprehend it, and had never expected such a development. Slowly...slowly she slipped from Bailian's arms.

Bailian reached out to help her, then asked with a helpless smile, "Have you forgotten the agreement between us?"

Yan Gui then remembered the agreement made between herself and the young man in front of her not long ago.

He would help her become the most powerful person in this dark boat under the river.

What she understood was... the first authority over the other tenants on this ship...

It turns out that he killed the master as well, and helped her become the master's most powerful person? !
What kind of virtue is this!
She just opened the door for him once as agreed.

Just give her a master to eat? !
Yangui has always been cheated and out-of-pocket by others, so when has she ever received such a gift!

And it seems that there is no cost.

Aiwu, who was floating in the river looking a little weak, was shocked and puzzled when she saw this scene.

Her brows were furrowed, as if she realized what would be waiting for her if Yangui accepted the inherited power of the new master.

Ayiwu suddenly burst into laughter, and said sarcastically, "I didn't expect that after so many years, you are still so naive and easy to deceive. In this world, there is no such thing as a gift without a reason. There must be a huge and dangerous bait hidden behind the food. None of us knew that killing the master could inherit its power.

But since there are such unimaginable benefits, and he can get them easily, why doesn't he take them himself? Don't you doubt his true intentions? If he is just using your body as a vessel to transfer this power, Yangui, you are afraid that you will be cheated of everything."

There was a dazed look on Yangui's face. She seemed to hesitate for a moment, but it was only a moment.

The thin leather surface floated up and turned into a silhouetted parchment-like hand, touching the ball of light.

Ayiwu couldn't help but straighten her body, her eyes becoming more fierce and intimidating: "Yangui, I never knew that you are like a dog that has been beaten. Even if sticks fall on you, when others throw meat bones at you again, you will still stretch your neck to bite!"

Her words were like the sharpest knife in the world, mercilessly opening up her most painful and fragile wounds.

Yan Gui's eyes were determined, and she used her thin fingers to split the ball of light into two. She swallowed the half of the light with unknown risks, and pushed the remaining half to Bailian.

She said, "It's good to be helped to ascend to the level of master. It's also good that you can stick to our agreement. But now, this is not what I want most. Even if I can't control all the power of rules, I can pave the way for myself with this half of power. I think I can become the new master of this river. But this new master is based on the old rules and builds my own new rules. I don't want to just sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor. I will prove to them that the era of ghost ships under the river is over."

When Aiwu heard this, she suddenly stopped talking, as if all words had become extremely pale and powerless at this moment.

She was stunned for a long moment, looking at the paper figure above her that was gradually no longer attached to Bailian, as if it was recognizing her for the first time.

Having said that, Bailian didn't force it any further. He stretched out his hand, grasped the ball of light, and crushed it into spots of light bit by bit, allowing the spots of light to sink into the bones and blood in his palm.

He smiled slightly and said, "In this case, you and I will each bear the consequences and risks."

The moment the two finished merging the light, a new boat once again formed a new outline order above their heads.

The new boat is no longer shabby, lifeless and eerie. Outside the outline of the new boat there is a terrace, suspended in the air above the rolling water. The green pavilion, red railings, bamboo curtains and gauze draperies, the shadows are dimly lit with a soft and beautiful light.

Yangui's pale and empty body was gradually filled up again by the overlapping order and rules of the old and the new. Her pale human skin became full and lustrous, and her hair became distinct and fluttering.

She transformed into a human again, but this time, she was not in the appearance of Cangnan Yi.

Bailian looked at the beautiful young girl in front of him. She had a soft face, thick eyelashes, and a subtle look. She looked a bit like a gentle woman who grew up in the misty rain of the south of the Yangtze River.

The only difference between her and other human women is that she has a pair of small goat horns on her forehead and double pupils, which fits the weird image characteristics of this world.

It's easy to tell that this is her true appearance.

Bailian couldn't help but glance at Ayiwu out of the corner of his eye, but he saw that she had stopped talking and was lying on the water in a daze, looking a little absent-minded for some reason.

After Yangui accepted the power of half of the rules, Ayiwu didn't seem to be as jealous as he had imagined.

Yangui, who once offered her true heart but was eaten away by others until only her skin was left, now had a look that was clearer than ever before, but her gaze was no longer fixed on Ayiwu.

Her open pair of watery eyes trembled slightly, as if wanting to let out the waves within, but her expression did not seem sad, but more of melancholy and complexity.

After a long while, she spoke faintly, "Are you... finally going to leave here?"

In this world, there is only one reason why he does not cling to the power of domination, and that is that he never wants to stay in this world for long.

Bailian nodded: "Yeah."

The ship under the river has been destroyed, and the construction of a new boat safe house will not be a matter of a day or two. He must find a new safe place for her to retreat, and then leave this world as soon as possible.

However, this mysterious and dangerous river area no longer poses as terrifying a threat to him as it did when he first came here.

Killing the ghost ship under the river has already caused enough consumption to the Lord of the River Domain. Now he is in charge of the power of rules of half of the ghost ships. It is not a difficult task for him to kill the Lord of the River Domain.

He glanced at the red figure that was about to be swallowed by the river and asked, "Ayiwu, I'll leave it to you to solve it."

Ayiwu raised her wet face, but there was no sadness, joy or fear on her face. It seemed that she had already realized the law of the jungle in nature.

Even if the person who devoured and killed her was Yangui.

But Yan Gui shook her head without any hesitation and said, "I am not interested in the power of rules in her. What you gave me is enough."

She said it was enough, but what she wanted to express more was that she had already let go of everything in the past.

The icy-cold river water contained a sinister force that cut into bones and flesh inch by inch.

Ayiwu was stunned for a moment, her eyes dim and for some reason she felt a little sour.

Cangnanyi sighed softly, thinking that no matter which world one is in, it seems that this kind of love and hate that is difficult to distinguish right from wrong is inevitable.

Indeed, love and desire are bitter and poisonous. Once a thought arises, eternal calamity will follow.

The calamity of worldly affairs brought about by other people's bodies alone is so difficult to deal with. If she develops worldly thoughts in her heart, this calamity will become even more difficult to overcome.

The monsters in this world are not good at saying goodbye.

Yan Gui stared at Cang Nan Yi for a moment. She seemed to sense something through the remnants of the past.

She opened her cherry lips and slowly exhaled a white mist, which turned into a shadow and slowly penetrated into Cangnanyi's shadow.

Cang Nanyi looked at her calmly.

Yan Gui smiled slightly and said, "When I boarded the ship, I stole a shadow of yours. Now I'm returning it to you. I won't change into your appearance again. So, can you see clearly where the shadow under your feet is heading?"

Cangnanyi raised his eyebrows slightly but did not answer.

After Yan Gui had done all this, he finally left. His body sank into the outline of the shadow, and he used his body to incubate new rules and order.

In this space dominated by irregular order, it is not difficult for Bailian to fly in the air with a sword.

He and Cangnanyi held a sword together, overlooking the rolling river.

The breath of the Lord of the River Area was weaker than ever before. Perhaps they had sensed that the two rulers of this river area had undergone tremendous changes, so they began to stir and gather towards this area, trying to occupy it and divide this area.

Aiyiwu looked Bailian in the eye without showing any fear: "Are you going to cross the river and then destroy the bridge?"

Bailian smiled disapprovingly, "If it was me who was lying on the ground right now, I think the girl would not be polite if she was offended."

As he spoke, he stretched out his palm and clenched it into a sword downwards. A huge water-blue river sword formed under his palm.

Bailian did not make any chopping motion, his hand was relaxed, and the huge water sword containing the power of the God of Water, carrying the power of Zeping common people, and implicitly in line with the vast power of the universe, fell into the rolling river below him.

Aiwu's expression changed slightly. She stretched out her arms with difficulty, summoned a red paper umbrella that had not been used for a long time, opened the umbrella, and held it in front of her.
