Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 723 Yu Yuan’s sudden move
  Zi Nu looked at the stubborn Han Fei and sighed helplessly and shook her head.

Han Fei smiled freely and said, "This matter is not one person's business, and all the consequences and costs must be borne by not one person."

"Whether it's quicksand or the National Preceptor's Office, don't get involved."

"Do you think it's possible?" Zi Nu replied bitterly, "If Gu Xun, Wei Zhuang, or any one of us were exchanged with you, could you stand by and watch?"

Han Fei shook his head seriously, "Of course not."

"But, Miss Zinu, you have to think about Brother Gu. If the Imperial Preceptor's Office offends King Qin again, how bad will the situation be?"

"Especially now that he is no longer here, and all that is left in the house is his wife, children and family."

"I can't, and you can't drag Salamander and the others into this whirlpool anymore."

"Then you should listen to me, at least... wait until Gu Xun comes back before you make a decision." Zi Nu advised.

Han Fei smiled and said, "Oh, if Brother Gu comes back, I won't be able to do anything."

"You..." Zi Nu couldn't say anything in anger, she could only make a nasal sound bitterly.

Seeing this, Han Fei showed his signature heartless smile, turned around and packed up the last bits and pieces of his belongings.

"That's it, let me face...my ending alone."

"Alas..." Zi Nu had already expected such a reclusive Han Fei, but she couldn't help but sigh, and finally said angrily, "Okay, I don't care about you, just go with it!"

After saying that, Zi Nu left angrily.

After Zi Nu left, Han Fei continued to pack his belongings, but the smile on his face quietly disappeared.

"Huh..." A sigh came from his mouth, and for the first time, Han Fei felt that his heart was so heavy.

He could neither save his country nor betray the goodwill of his friends.

He traveled thousands of miles to study, was conceited about his talents, was free and unrestrained, spent half his life ups and downs, but in the end... accomplished nothing.

He could only contribute his last meager effort to his country. Even if it was useless, let's just say... benevolence is rewarded.

………………

After Zi Nu left Dongkuoyuan, Mo Ya found her again before she even left the Imperial Master's Mansion.

Mo Ya had to pay attention to most of the activities in the Imperial Prefect's Mansion at all times, so he naturally knew that Zi Nu came to see Han Fei.

Seeing the angry and displeased look on Zi Nu's face, Mo Ya speculated, "It seems that the head of Zi Nu failed to persuade the Ninth Young Master."

Zi Nu didn't say anything to complain about Han Fei, she just smiled bitterly and said, "If what you say is true, it won't be Han Fei."

Mo Ya made no comment on this, sticking to his duty as a subordinate and asked, "Then what should we do next?"

Zi Nu blinked with a headache, crossed her arms to her chest and thought for a moment, "Well... let's wait for now."

"If you receive Gu Xun's reply in time, do as he wants. Otherwise...see that the situation is not right, don't care about the attitude of King Qin or the Yin Yang family, or Han Fei's own wishes, just send him away from Xianyang."

Mo Ya couldn't just break the rules and be tough on Han Fei, but with Zi Nu's approval, there would be no problem.

He nodded, "I understand."

………………

Shushan, within Yuyuan.

Gu Xun is in free fall. He has been falling since he stepped into this bottomless pit filled with only darkness.

Theoretically speaking, jumping into a pit should result in a free fall, but this time he took a little too long.

But in fact, it is difficult for Gu Xun to say whether he is currently missing.

In this pure darkness, there is no time or space, and his five senses are equivalent to being deprived.

There was nothing to see, nothing to smell, nothing to hear, only touch, and some sense of existence when he reached out to touch himself.

Of course, there is one thing that Yu Yuan cannot take away, and that is the system panel.

However, it seems to have been affected to a certain extent. The system panel does not appear in Gu Xun's sight as a visual panel as usual, but appears in his mind.

The reason why Gu Xun felt that he was sinking was that he felt that the power of Yu Yuan around him was getting stronger and more active.

At the same time, the flickering of the system panel began to speed up rapidly, which made his head hurt.

The increasingly larger and more active aura of Yu Yuan is constantly trying to corrode Gu Xun. Everything from the body to the will is being eroded and corrupted. As time goes by, the power of erosion is strengthening bit by bit, and the Feihong in Gu Xun's body is really The anger gradually started to become a bit too much.

However, he still didn't really resist because he was waiting for the system panel to reveal the real cause of the mutation.

This is a dangerous process.

He clearly felt that his will was gradually becoming disordered, and disorderly chaos and violence were invading his thoughts.

At the same time, his body is also being eroded. Yu Yuan's power is invading his meridians, squeezing the living space of Feihong Zhenqi, and achieving complete control over him bit by bit.

Just when Gu Xun's thinking was getting more and more confusing and was about to reach its limit, the system panel seemed to have finally been satisfied. It stopped flickering and a line of text popped up——

detected……

Gu Xun glanced at it, and he had no time to think about it. He was on the verge of collapse and had to save himself...

………………

Outside Yu Yuan, Concubine Yan and the great elder of Shushan looked nervously at the entrance of Yu Yuan's cave.

It didn't take too long to jump from Guxun to Yuyuan, and not much change happened. The darkness was still dark, deep and profound, and there was no wave in the ancient well.

However, both of them could clearly feel that Yu Yuan's aura seemed to be becoming more and more active.

Fortunately, the great elder of Shushan was protected by the aura of the Fusang sacred tree, but Concubine Yan had to retreat to her previous position.

"No, I must summon Yu Yuan's guards." Seeing the silent Yu Yuan come to life bit by bit, the great elder of Shushan finally couldn't sit still.

Yu Yuan's past changes were all sudden. At least in Shushan's view, there was no reason. He was active as long as he was active. He had never had any changes due to the interference of others. Unexpectedly, he met a fool who jumped in today... …

Do you really want to die?
  The great elder didn't understand, even though he was deeply shocked.

He didn't know whether Yu Yuan's change was simply because someone entered it, or whether it was because of something special about Gu Xun himself.

But that's not important. For him, the most important thing now is to suppress Yu Yuan's abnormal movements.

He naturally knows the solution. Shushan can be said to have rich experience in dealing with this, but in the end there is only one solution, and that is Yu Yuan's guards.

The Yu Yuan guards in Shu Mountain are, on the one hand, an important force in protecting Shu Mountain, and on the other hand, they are also the fundamental means to guard against Yu Yuan's sudden movements.

Strictly speaking, the latter is their real responsibility, and protecting Shushan is also incidental to protecting Yu Yuan's seal from problems.
