Being too ferocious because of caution

Chapter 864 Leave your name

Imperial capital, southern split zone.

In the still warm little garden, Yun Fang looked worried.

She had contacted Xu Shengzhi six times.

When the situation changed at the beginning, she had already notified Xu Shengzhi to withdraw with their people. When Wu Liang went to the front line, he gave Xu Shengzhi a lot of armed forces. If Xu Shengzhi and his forces were in the southern war zone now, it would not be impossible for them to break through and destroy the bridge of flesh and blood.

But now it is too late.

The battle line was split, and the two armed forces of Jiejiao were completely separated. It was originally a sharp scimitar, but now it dared not be unsheathed.

And as time goes by, the bridge of flesh and blood is still supplying fresh blood to the church.

The enemy is getting stronger and stronger, and the situation of the human federation of the imperial capital and Jiejiao is becoming more and more dangerous!

The only way Yunfang could think of was to use the power of the formation to contact Xu Shengzhi in the Fifth Federation, let him approach the Flesh and Blood Bridge from the northern front, and find ways to destroy it!

However, since the area north of the Flesh and Blood Bridge is the main gathering place of the church, once Xu Shengzhi attacks the Flesh and Blood Bridge, the church will arrive at the first time and tear him into pieces!

Therefore, when Yunfang made this decision, she felt a strong sense of guilt and shame for Xu Shengzhi.

Unfortunately, there is no other solution at the moment.

Although Wuliang is supporting the elite troops of Jiejiao on the front line, and people from entertainment companies such as Fengnan are also there to keep the peace, they seem to be quite stretched in the face of the church's large forces that are coming like a tide.

Among the four major families, there were many people who took advantage of the current predicament to make a fuss and wanted to weaken Jiejiao's influence on the imperial capital!

These people knew that they had no way to regain their own power.

But they were unwilling to see their glorious rule completely destroyed by Jiejiao in such a short time, and now they wanted to take this opportunity to let Jiejiao have a taste of this!

Cleaning up these trash really took up a lot of Jiejiao's energy.

This further delayed the opportunity to fight, making Jiejiao passive when facing the church.

In the garden, flowers and plants withered, and vegetation withered.

There were no four seasons in the chaotic world, but because the flesh and blood bridge constantly absorbed the underground power of the imperial capital, life could no longer absorb nutrients on this land.

The death warrior following Yunfang frowned and said:

"Master Yun, Director Xu still didn't agree?"

His name is Gao He, a death warrior left by Wuliang to Yunfang to help deal with many trivial matters.

Yun Fang sighed:

"Six times."

"I tried to convince him."

"But..."

The death warrior Gao He sneered:

"When he joined Jiejiao, I felt that this man was unreliable. If he did something dangerous, he would run away like a dog faster than anyone else!"

"It turned out that he dared not disobey the leader, but now..."

"Okay, Lord Yun, it's impossible to count on him. Let's prepare for the battle later. As long as we can hold on until the leader comes back, things may turn around."

These people followed Zhao Yi all the way out of Guxuan Town, and their trust in Zhao Yi was above everything else.

They always believed that there was no problem that the man could not solve.

Yun Fang looked at the formation that was gradually melting not far away, her face was haggard, and she remembered what Zhao Yi said to her before he left, and sighed deeply.

She, Wu Liang, Feng Nan... and even many people in Jiejiao could just leave.

What does the life and death of these people in the imperial capital have to do with them?

You have to know that these guys had raised their flags and shouted for Zhao Yi and Jiejiao to fight and kill. If it weren't for Zhao Yi's tricks, they would have been wiped out by the four major families with the help of these "rats"!

But now...

They stood in front of these people in times of crisis.

Those damn guys are not only ungrateful, but are even making trouble.

It's really... disheartening.

"If he were here, what would he do..."

Yunfang thought, looking at the sky with a blurred look in her eyes.

…

Imperial capital, the fifth federation.

Xu Shengzhi stood in his office, packing up the materials in his hands.

Many drawings were thrown on his desk by him, in a mess.

Xu Shengzhi looked solemn, and the novel he had always closed was casually opened at this moment, lying on the table, about to fall.

After checking the drawings for a long time, he crumpled the drawings into a ball in annoyance and threw them into the trash can behind the door not far away.

Pah——

Missed.

The drawing rolled aside.

Xu Shengzhi took off his glasses, which he had worn for who knows how many years, and rubbed his sore eyes.

Outside the window, the cold wind lifted his green curtains with snake pattern lace.

The light bulb in the room flickered several times and went out.

Xu Shengzhi picked up the pen on the table irritably and drew a circle casually. The circle floated up and entered the light bulb, emitting the same warm yellow light as before, illuminating the whole room.

He closed the pen cap and threw it aside.

His eyes followed the pen cap and suddenly fell on a relatively old document.

He always carried that document with him.

But he didn't open it often.

As luck would have it, the cold wind that blew just now blew the document open.

There are many names written on it.

They were all written by Xu Shengzhi himself.

He stared at the dried ink on it, and his heart seemed to be touched. He came to the side of the document, and his fingertips slowly crossed the names one by one. What came to his ears were cold but powerful voices:

"Master Xu..."

"Master..."

"Manager Xu..."

"Old Xu..."

Listening to these voices, Xu Shengzhi slowly closed his eyes and raised his head.

After a long time, he murmured hoarsely:

"Don't shout..."

"I remember you all..."

"Always with you, never forget..."

"Everyone, give Old Xu a little more time..."

…

North of the imperial capital, the Skull Church.

In the thick twilight, a group of black-robed people gathered here, all wearing terrifying torture instruments!

The originally intact body was torn by the torture instruments, and blood was dripping!

In the distance, a huge formation stretched out and stood, almost tearing the earth into two parts. Inside the bottomless chasm, an unknown fire was burning, blazing up to the sky. Various terrifying and strange phenomena appeared in the flames, and the screams of the tortured people came one after another...

The black-robed people surrounded this place, looking down at the chasm with dim eyes.

At some point, the black-robed man on the far left waved the bone whip in his hand. The whip was cut from the arm bone, and the broken flesh and blood attached to it, which was very hideous.

The powerful force bombarded the bridge of flesh and blood, but it only made the bridge of flesh and blood tremble slightly.

"Not bad."

He praised.

"With the current strength of the Flesh and Blood Bridge, ordinary attacks can hardly cause any damage to it."

"At midnight tonight, we will launch a surprise attack on the Human Federation in the south, and we can be relatively relieved..."

The female suffering monk next to him raised her chin and reminded him:

"There is still a troublesome guy in the remnants of the Fifth Federation in the northern region that has not been dealt with. Is it inappropriate for us to take such a risk tonight?"

Several people looked at the strong female suffering monk:

"Are you talking about that coward?"

"Don't be funny... The church has deliberately left him many loopholes before. If he really dared, he would have come long ago."

Another person echoed lightly:

"He doesn't dare."

"Such people are always the easiest to deal with."

"Even if he comes, with the current strength of the Flesh and Blood Bridge, it will not be easily destroyed."

"We have no worries."

"Tonight... is destined to be the night when the glory of the church covers this sinful place!"

...

Late at night.

Xu Yue tiptoed and pushed open the door of her room. She was dressed in a black and solemn outfit, wrapping her perfect body. She flowed like water under the starlight and came to the small square of the Fifth Federation.

The wind was as sharp as a knife, and the killing intent was as sharp as a knife.

Many people have already gathered here.

Thirty or fifty at a glance.

The weakest is also very fierce, and the strongest has already stepped half a step into the evil realm!

"Everyone, we are very lucky to work together for so long."

"Tonight is our last collective action."

"No matter what the result is..."

One of them said, and his voice was inexplicably trembling.

Everyone was very touched, looking at each other, with a hidden reluctance in their eyes.

Xu Yue took a deep breath and said in a low and firm voice:

"No return!"

Everyone echoed:

"No return!"

The group quickly rushed to the south of the remnants of the Federation, but not long after they left the gate, they saw a figure under the starlight.

"Where are you going?"

The familiar voice made these people stunned.

"Xu, Director Xu?"

As the man approached, his unshaven face appeared in front of everyone.

Under the cold starlight and darkness, they looked at each other, making the originally tragic atmosphere seem a little awkward.

"No return?"

"I think you all look like turtles!"

"Hurry up and go to bed!"

Xu Shengzhi held three books in his right hand, a cigarette in his mouth, and glared at them and cursed.

The dead soldiers stood still.

"What's the matter?"

"My words don't work anymore?"

"Why are you still standing there?"

"Go back!"

Facing Xu Shengzhi's scolding, a soldier stood up and gritted his teeth:

"Manager Xu... we respect you very much."

"Brothers and sisters have followed you for a long time and know that you are careful and cautious, but everyone can see the current situation. Jiejiao has no way out!"

"If this goes on, everyone will be finished!"

"Including the Human Federation and Wu Zongguan in the south!"

"Since we are all going to die anyway, why don't we give it a try?!"

"Brothers and sisters are not afraid of death, and they are even more unwilling to wait for death!"

Xu Shengzhi slowly exhaled a puff of white smoke.

"I say it again, go back to sleep."

"Tomorrow I will give you a heavy task."

When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up immediately.

"Manager... do you have a plan?"

Xu Shengzhi nodded.

"Yes."

"You go back first, Xu Yue stays, I have something to say to her alone."

After hearing about the action plan, these dead soldiers finally calmed down. They left here and returned to the Federation.

Under the starlight that was fainter than the candlelight, Xu Shengzhi looked at Xu Yue:

"Do you mind walking with me?"

Xu Yue took off her mask, revealing her beautiful face. Perhaps because of the excitement, her originally pale cheeks were stained with a touch of rosy.

"I don't mind."

"What arrangements do you have for Manager Xu? Just tell me. I will do my best to complete the task!"

Xu Shengzhi turned around and walked along the edge of the ruined Fifth Federation position, asking:

"How long have you been with me?"

Xu Yue replied very confidently:

"I have been following you since Old Tang died."

Xu Shengzhi's eyelids fluttered:

"Tang Weiming?"

Xu Yue nodded:

"Yes."

"Manager... do you still remember him?"

Xu Shengzhi felt the palm of his hand burning hot when he touched the document with his name on it.

"Page 6, line 3, number 4."

Xu Yue was stunned:

"What are you talking about, supervisor?"

Xu Shengzhi shook his head.

"Nothing."

"After tonight, you have a very important evacuation mission."

"It's about the life and death of Wu Zongguan and his team. You can't slack off at all. Got it?"

Xu Yue felt something was wrong:

"Evacuation mission? The supervisor won't go with us?"

Xu Shengzhi spit out the cigarette in his mouth, touched the circular stubble at the corner of his mouth, and said lightly:

"I'm going to blow up the bridge."

When these words came out, Xu Yue's heart 'stomped'.

She stared at Xu Shengzhi and found that Xu Shengzhi had changed his usual laughing appearance and became much more serious.

Xu Yue knew that Xu Shengzhi was not kidding her.

"I'll go with you!"

She took a step forward and grabbed Xu Shengzhi's arm.

The latter turned around and looked at her with an extremely calm look.

"You are too weak to do this job."

"It would be a waste to have one more person die with me."

"Don't think that everything will be fine after the Flesh and Blood Bridge is destroyed. The power of the church coming through the Flesh and Blood Bridge is enough to threaten the remnants of the Human Federation in the south."

"After we split north and south, I collected a lot of information about the church's internal intelligence, power distribution, and leadership. These things are very important to the war situation. You have to escort them to the south to Wu Zongguan or Feng Boss!"

Xu Shengzhi said, pulling out the middle book of the three books and handed it to Xu Yue.

The latter took it with both hands, but kept shaking.

"..."

She wanted to say something, but felt weak all over.

"After tonight, once the Flesh and Blood Bridge is destroyed, the power of the church will be dispersed, causing widespread chaos."

"I will not completely destroy the Flesh and Blood Bridge at once. The church must want to repair it. I will try my best to delay time for you and help you evacuate safely..."

"In addition-"

Xu Shengzhi said, and took out the second book by himself, handed it to Xu Yue, and continued:

"If you have a chance, give this book to the leader."

"Tell him that my brothers and I...will not go back."

The cold light flowed down from the sky and hit Xu Yue's face. She looked at Xu Shengzhi's back as he walked away, lowered her head, and slowly opened the second thin notebook in her hand.

In it, there were names one after another.

Xu Yue knew a lot of them.

These names...were all Xu Shengzhi's subordinates, and they died while working for Xu Shengzhi.

She didn't expect that Xu Shengzhi actually wrote down all these people's names...

Long-lost memories grew, and tears inexplicably fell from her eyes.

She flipped through the pages one by one until the last name in the corner of the last page was written:

——Xu Shengzhi.

PS: There is only one update today.

4177 words.

Just like the usual two updates.

Good night, my dears!
