Chapter 1182

At this moment he could only put on an act, shouting a cheerless cry, before tailing after Hearing Gai Nie.

Hearing Gai Nie paid no heed to any of this, pressing the attack to Fan Yuqi's rear.

The Shark-Tooth Sword swayed lightly left and right; the left side directly unleashed Horizontal Eight Directions, while the right side unleashed Hundred-Step Flying Sword.

Once the black and white twin dragon sword-qi had formed,

he used a secret art he had comprehended on his own and suddenly drew them back in.

The two streams of black-and-white sword-qi merged into one in an instant.

A sword-qi Changhe like a grey dragon took shape once more!

"Die!"

Dare to touch my shige—none of you shall live!

Hearing Gai Nie drove a fierce blow straight at the back of Fan Yuqi's skull.

958 Great Qin, I have arrived!

Boom!

The grey-dragon sword-qi Changhe smashed through every obstacle in its path.

It not only shattered the protective Thunder Gang Qi around Fan Yuqi's body, but struck directly at Fan Yuqi's helmet as well.

That helmet and armor were clearly no ordinary weapons.

But under the impact of this grey-dragon sword-qi Changhe, they began to crack apart at once.

Fan Yuqi seemed not to notice, still attacking Hearing Gai Nie like a madman.

Hearing Gai Nie, however, saw that once Hearing Gai Nie's attack broke through the helmet, Fan Yuqi would have no life left in him.

Having no time to mind Fan Yuqi's attack, he hurled the sword in his hand with all his might straight at the grey-dragon sword-qi Changhe!

Hundred-Step Flying Sword!

Sword-qi like a Bai Long formed in an instant and shot skyward.

It collided head-on with Hearing Gai Nie's grey-dragon sword-qi Changhe right near Fan Yuqi's head.

The tremendous impact instantly reduced Fan Yuqi's helmet and armor to flying ash.

Only now, with his armor stripped away, did Fan Yuqi's true face at last appear.

And there—at the place where Fan Yuqi's head should have been—was a terrifying skull, with not a scrap of flesh or blood.

While Hearing Gai Nie was shaken with shock, Fan Yuqi's attack, which had not stopped, finally crashed into Hearing Gai Nie.

The tremendous force struck Hearing Gai Nie and sent him flying sideways through the air.

A great spray of hot blood from his heart spurted out.

The Demon Soldier Heavy Sword immediately leapt up and absorbed every drop of that heart's blood.

As Fan Yuqi's armor shattered, the two terrifying sword-qi Changhe at last dissolved into nothing.

Fan Yuqi stared at Hearing Gai Nie being sent flying by his own hand, then glanced at the situation nearby, and could not help but fall into a daze.

"Why? Why did you save me?"

He truly could not understand why Hearing Gai Nie had risked himself to save him!

Looking at Hearing Gai Nie, gravely wounded and unable to rise, he simply could not comprehend it.

"Shige…"

Hearing Gai Nie had not expected that his good intentions to help shige would leave shige gravely wounded, on the verge of death.

Having no heart now to keep fighting Fan Yuqi, he activated the Ghost Valley Vaulting Art and swiftly reached Hearing Gai Nie's side.

At this moment Hearing Gai Nie's face was pale as gold paper, his whole body drenched in blood, his appearance wretched beyond words.

Seeing his beloved shige so gravely hurt, Hearing Gai Nie was consumed with self-reproach.

He pressed his hand to Hearing Gai Nie's back without pause, continuously channeling true essence in hopes of pulling Hearing Gai Nie back from the brink.

All the while he kept saying,

"Shige, I'm sorry, I'm sorry…"

In Hearing Gai Nie's eyes, all of this was his fault.

Had he not struck, Hearing Gai Nie would surely not have been wounded so gravely.

Although Hearing Gai Nie was not wounded by his hand, it was still connected to him.

"Ha ha! Fan Yuqi, well done!"

Cheng Jiao let out a long laugh at this moment, came to Fan Yuqi's side, and stretched out his hand toward the dazed Fan Yuqi,

"Hand over the completed Demon Soldier!"

It turned out that this strike just now had not only gravely wounded Hearing Gai Nie, but had also let this Demon Soldier Heavy Sword absorb Hearing Gai Nie's heart's blood.

Now this Demon Soldier had already achieved what Cheng Jiao had spoken of—absorbing the souls of the Vertical and Horizontal swords.

Although Hearing Gai Nie was not yet dead, for some reason this Demon Soldier had already completed its work.

Fan Yuqi's head, though it was only a skull,

yet now anyone with eyes could see that this skull had fallen into utter bewilderment.

Clearly he truly could not fathom why Hearing Gai Nie had risked his life to save him.

Therefore, even though Cheng Jiao stood before him, Fan Yuqi seemed not to notice.

After Cheng Jiao gave the order, Fan Yuqi still had not replied.

He called out several times before he finally saw that something was off with Fan Yuqi.

He immediately circulated his true essence in secret and gave a low shout,

"Fan Yuqi…"

That single cry reached straight into the depths of Fan Yuqi's spirit.

Yet it allowed the stunned Fan Yuqi to come back to his senses.

"Your Majesty…"

Since the rebellion back then, Fan Yuqi had already recognized Hearing Cheng Jiao as the Emperor of Great Qin.

"Hand the Demon Soldier over to me."

Hearing Cheng Jiao said impatiently.

"Ah, yes…"

Fan Yuqi hesitated for a moment, then habitually obeyed.

Bowing his body, he delivered the heavy sword Demon Soldier to Hearing Cheng Jiao's front.

"Haha! With the Demon Soldier in hand, the Soldier God of Mechanism shall be mine.

Great Qin, here I come!"

After Hearing Cheng Jiao took the heavy sword Demon Soldier, he was immensely excited.

Paying no more attention to Fan Yuqi or anyone else, he took the heavy sword Demon Soldier, flashed a few times, and retreated into the stone house.

The people of Despair Shanzhuang looked at each other.

In the end, most of them still decided to cluster around the stone house, standing guard for Hearing Cheng Jiao.

Now that the great matter had reached its final step, though many things had been experienced, the moment of harvest was about to arrive.

How could these people be willing to give up.

"Hearing Gai Nie, why?"

At this moment, Fan Yuqi had nothing else in his heart, not the slightest pleasure of avenging a friend, but rather utter bewilderment.

He did not go to the stone house to stand guard for Hearing Cheng Jiao, but instead came to Hearing Gai Nie's side to ask.

"Get lost! If Shige dies, I'll grind your bones and scatter your ashes!"

Wei Zhuang could not spare a hand at this moment, and could only curse at Fan Yuqi.

He had already made up his mind: regardless of whether Hearing Gai Nie survived or not, once things were settled, he must kill this Fan Yuqi to vent his anger.

Fan Yuqi was cursed at by Wei Zhuang, yet did not retort.

He merely stared blankly at Hearing Gai Nie, not leaving.

Seeing that he no longer made a move, Wei Zhuang no longer bothered with him.

He only continuously channeled true essence, trying to extend Hearing Gai Nie's life.

In fact, the reason Hearing Gai Nie suffered this heavy burden of injuries, first was indeed because Fan Yuqi struck out in anger, showing no mercy.

Second was due to that heavy sword Demon Soldier!

For the heavy sword Demon Soldier to achieve complete success, it required the Vertical Sword and Horizontal Sword two sword souls!
