Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 726 Shushan is temporarily over

At this time, Gu Xun's face was quite pale under the starlight refracted by the ice, and his breathing was somewhat heavy and rapid.

For a master like him, this is an almost impossible situation.

Concubine Yan on the side saw Gu Xun's weakness at this time, and leaned over quietly, protecting him behind her, and asked with concern, "How's it going?"

Gu Xun waved his hand tiredly, "No problem."

"The Ice Soul Cold Air Formation forms a self-circulating circulation in the sky, which can suppress alien forces with minimal consumption. The true energy I retained when I built this ice prison is enough to sustain it for decades without any problems."

With such amazing results, the effort is naturally not small.

At this time, the true energy in Gu Xun's body has completely dried up, and it has reached the point where the oil is exhausted. In terms of the level of embarrassment, it is even worse than when he first came to the world of Qin Dynasty. When his internal strength has not yet reached the Great Perfection, he brought his mother and daughter with the Frightened Salamander to wield swords. Baili had exhausted his true energy and wanted to go even further.

Even standing now is difficult.

Fortunately, things are different now. Dzogchen's internal energy allows him to recover his energy much faster than before. Even if his meridians are dry and exhausted, he can regain his energy in a short time.

In the past, this state of excessive wear and tear would have been impossible to recover without taking a half-day and a night's rest.

With a little more strength, Gu Xun jumped off the ice platform, patted Concubine Yan on the shoulder, indicating that she shouldn't be too nervous, and immediately walked towards the Great Elder of Shushan.

"Gu is true to his word, and Yu Yuan's restlessness has been completely suppressed."

Seeing Gu Xun, who was obviously in a bad state, the Great Elder had no intention of taking advantage of others, and said with emotion, "Your Excellency, I can't understand it even more."

Gu Xun shrugged indifferently, "There's nothing I don't understand. Lies and breach of trust are two different things."

"Gu did lie to Miss Shi about something, but I will definitely honor my promise."

Of course, the specific method of cashing out depends on his mood and thoughts.

Shi Qing, who was guarding the great elder, shook his eyes when he heard this, but in the end he did not make a sound.

So... was all I got in the end a lie?
  The great elder stroked his beard with his palm, pondered for a moment, and looked sideways at the octagonal ice platform constructed by Gu Xun.

Yu Yuan's power was indeed completely suppressed within Yu Yuan, even more completely than before, with almost no breath leaking out.

And with his eyes, he could tell that Gu Xun's words were not false. The Ice Soul Cold Air Formation was indeed clever enough. With the help of the flow of breath inside, it was possible to use the huge power within the ice platform to suppress Yu Yuan without causing too much damage. loss.

Decades...are not a lie.

"No matter what kind of unhappiness we had before, for the sake of Your Excellency sealing Yu Yuan, I can write it off." The great elder of Shushan turned to look at Gu Xun, "But Shushan still doesn't welcome you. If nothing happens, please Leave."

Gu Xun did make amends, but he was the one who caused the incident after all. It was obviously unrealistic to expect Shushan to be grateful to him for this.

The great elder of Shushan asked himself that he had tolerated Gu Xun enough, so that it had such serious consequences as Yu Yuan's restlessness.

He will not give in anymore. If Gu Xun continues to push forward, the Shushan tribe will have no choice but to fight to the death.

Gu Xun smacked his lips and replied, "Gu's purpose of coming to Shushan can be said to have been achieved, and it was achieved... very thoroughly." "This is also thanks to the great elder's cooperation. As for the unfortunate impact on your tribe, , Gu is deeply sorry...Then the three of us will stop disturbing you."

As he spoke, Gu Xun glanced around the surrounding environment——

The original lush mountain forest had been almost burned by his previous fire, and the vegetation in the distance was scorched black and dead. At first glance, it was bare, which was as ugly as it was abrupt.

The originally damp and cold valley had become even colder due to the breath of the ice soul cold energy formation. Even in the middle of summer, there was a biting chill that chilled the heart.

How should I put it, there were no casualties, and there was basically no property damage. Even the forbidden area of ​​Yuyuan was destroyed, and the entrance to Yuyuan was completely exposed to the sky.

Uh... Gu Xun couldn't say whether this loss was too big for Shushan. Anyway, he had already apologized 'sincerely'.

What else do you want! ?
  But after all, he still had some conscience. Finally, Gu Xun mentioned the Qin State's affairs again, "Gu will not participate in any future actions of the Qin State and the Yin Yang Family against Shu Mountain, nor will he provide any help."

"However, Gu has to remind the elder that Shushan is at the end of its road. The Fuso Shenmu Yinyang Family is determined to win. If you can't hold it no matter what, it's better to make plans in advance."

"Well... I personally suggest that you should give up when it's time to give up. Resisting stubbornly and fighting to the end will only increase casualties and is meaningless."

The great elder of Shushan was not annoyed by Gu Xun's disdain for his tribe. He nodded calmly, "Thank you for your reminder. I'm naturally aware of it."

Gu Xun shrugged when he heard the words. He didn't know if the other party heard it, so he turned around and left.

Seeing that he had indeed obtained enough valuable information from Yu Yuannai, his reminder was already a great act of kindness, and whether the other party would listen or not was not within his scope of consideration.

However, the great elder of Shushan stopped Gu Xun who was about to leave, and finally asked, "What is the purpose that you want to achieve at the risk of entering Yuyuan?"

Gu Xun stopped and unconsciously recalled the prompt that appeared on the system panel. After pondering for a moment, he shook his head slightly and said, "This... has nothing to do with Shushan."

"Well...it has nothing to do with all of you."

Not getting an answer, the great elder of Shushan did not continue to ask, silently watching Gu Xun and the others leave here along the fork in the mountain.

Shi Qing looked at the mess around him, turned his eyes back to the Great Elder, and said in a low tone, "Great Elder..."

The great elder raised his hand to stop Shi Qing from blaming himself, and comforted him, "This matter has nothing to do with your previous behavior."

"Gu Xun... is too dangerous and too powerful. Since he has set his sights on us in Shushan, even without you, we still can't escape this disaster."

"Rather, because of Qing'er's acquaintance with them, a lot of disputes... and casualties have been avoided."

The Great Elder's words successfully made Shi Qing take back his words of self-blame, but they did not completely dispel the thoughts in his heart.

The Great Elder saw this, but he had no other choice but to let Shi Qing walk out slowly.

In any case, despite the big changes in Shushan this time, there were no casualties, and Yu Yuan's seal was not seriously affected. It was lucky.

Shi Qing's inner guilt was not too strong.
