Chapter 718

"So... General Jingyuan, have you finished the interrogation?" Huo Huo asked, his fox ears trembling uneasily and his tail curled into a nervous circle behind him.

"Interrogation? It's indeed over, but he was jailbroken." Jing Yuan's voice was calm and he looked at Lin Yu beside him, with complicated emotions in his eyes, not knowing whether it was helplessness or relief.

The smoke from the recent battle still seemed to linger around him, adding a sense of heaviness to these words.

"Robbery...prison break?!" Huo Huo's eyes widened, her ears stood up at right angles, and her tail snapped straight again. "Who...is it?" she asked tentatively, her voice much softer than before.

Following Jing Yuan's line of sight, he saw Lin Yu standing next to the chessboard with his arms folded.

In an instant, a bold idea was born in Huo Huo's mind.

She took a half step back, covered her mouth in shock, and her tail swung left and right uncontrollably, "No way...Brother Lin Yu, did you really break into the prison?"

Her voice was so tearful that it scared away the crows in the corner of Sui Garden.

Lin Yu coughed lightly, "Strictly speaking, we should take away the people who should be taken away."

"That's the prison of the Ten Kings! Do you know how much trouble this will cause?" She was so anxious that she was spinning in circles. "The shadow of the Ten Kings has been here before, and the next time he might come in person!"

"That's why I let him go." Jing Yuan said, "The Immortal Boat needs people who can break the rules, not prisoners trapped in the old rules."

He turned to look at Lin Yu, with some hidden expectations in his eyes, "As for the consequences...I will take all the blame."

"So...so this is the reason why you resigned?" Gui Naifen asked as she listened.

"But General, the Ten Kings will not let this go!"

"I will take care of the Ten Kings Division myself."

"Jingyuan, you don't have to..."

"Nothing is worth it." Jing Yuan chuckled, "I said, I believe in Luofu's future."

"Interesting... You know that staying will be a dead end, but you still smile so beautifully." Ah Ha muttered to himself as he looked at Jing Yuan.

"Let's go quickly. After the battle just now and the live broadcast, if we don't leave now, we won't be able to leave soon." Jing Yuan urged.

"Okay, I hope that next time we meet, we won't meet as criminals."

After saying that, Xing Xiao drew out his silver sword, creating a dark blue space crack in the air, and Hua Huo, Aha and others entered one after another.

At the same time, Huo Huo and the others were also driven away by Jing Yuan.

"Hurry up, hurry up!" Huo Huo pushed Gui Naifen and Su Shang to run towards the back door of Suiyuan in a hurry.

However, if accountability is pursued, Gui Naifen and Su Shang will still be pulled in for a talk.

As soon as they left, the gate of Suiyuan exploded.

The judge held up the chain, and the underworld officials rushed into the courtyard. Wu Yi's spear was wrapped in black miasma, and the blade of the golden soul-catcher flashed with cold light.

The entire Sui Garden was instantly shrouded in this aura, as if it were in the Netherworld.

"General Jingyuan! Hand over Lin Yu!"

The judge's voice was like a muffled thunder, shaking the tiles off the roof.

However, what responded to him was the clanging sound of Jing Yuan slowly drawing out his long sword.

"If you want to chase them, you have to get past me first."

"Come on!" Jing Yuan shouted, raising the long sword above his head, and the power of destiny in his body surged wildly.

The blade glowed with unprecedented light, vowing to cut through the overwhelming attack.

...

"It's safe, temporarily." Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

I didn't expect Xing Xiao had this ability, not bad.

Judging from their location, they probably returned to the Shen Ce Palace.

However, before he could rest for a while, Lin Yu was suddenly hugged tightly from behind by someone.

The force was astonishingly great, and it carried with it an indescribable tremor and grievance.

Lin Yu was stunned and wanted to break free reflexively, but he felt the warmth and wetness coming from his wrist.

Looking back, Fu Xuan appeared behind him at some point.

The usually calm and composed girl was now crying like a baby.

"Why...why did you do that?" Fu Xuan's voice was buried in his back, and her crying question was nasal, "You knew it was a dead end but still wanted to jailbreak, and you knew it would implicate Jing Yuan but still insisted on doing it!" She raised her head, staring at him with tearful eyes, with crystal tears hanging on her eyelashes, "Why...why can't we wait a little longer? Maybe we can find a better way..."

"If you tell me... I can help too, instead of just standing there as a projection."

Lin Yu opened his mouth, Fu Xuan's nails dug deep into his sleeves, and he suddenly realized how much worry and fear she had for her companions.

"Some things can't wait." Lin Yu turned around gently and raised his hand to wipe the tears from her face, but froze in mid-air.

His figure was reflected in Fu Xuan's eyes, and he clearly saw that in addition to anger and sadness, there was also a kind of fear that was almost desperate.

"Huanlong may betray you again at any time. Xianzhou cannot be trapped in the old rules and wait for death. Jingyuan also understands this."

"But the price is too high!" Fu Xuan suddenly choked and beat his chest.

"Do you know what kind of wanted order the Ten Kings Division has issued now? You and General Jing Yuan... have both become 'traitors' of Xianzhou!" Her voice became lower and lower, and finally she whispered almost in tears, "I don't want to lose anyone again..."

Lin Yu froze in place, feeling the violent trembling body in his arms. The silence of the Shen Ce Mansion was filled with Fu Xuan's suppressed sobs.

"I promise you that I won't let anyone sacrifice in vain." Lin Yu put down his hand hanging in the air and gently put his arm around Fu Xuan's thin shoulders.

He could feel her shudder after hearing these words, the lingering fragrance of her hair mixed with the salty taste of tears lingering around his nose, "General Jing Yuan risked everything, not to become a 'traitor'."

At this moment, the sound of a sword breaking through the air broke the scene.

The sound was as sharp as tearing silk, and it carried a fierce murderous intent, which actually shattered the leaves in the courtyard of the Shen Ce Mansion. The broken leaves fell like raindrops.

Lin Yu immediately became alert.

"What's that?" Xia Die frowned, and the sickle in her hand made a buzzing sound. With just a command, it could turn into a deadly attack.

For a moment, everyone looked towards the backyard of the Shen Ce Mansion.

There was originally a quiet bamboo forest there, but now it seemed to be swept by a strong wind, and a chilling chill was revealed between the fluttering bamboo leaves.

The moonlight passed through the gaps between the bamboo leaves, casting mottled black shadows on the ground. As the sound of the sword approached, those black shadows began to distort and deform.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you." Fu Xuan looked at Lin Yu, "Jing Liu is back. I believe Dan Heng has already told you that she is now in the bamboo forest behind the Shen Ce Mansion."

"Jingliu's sword is never just a sword. Every time she swings the sword, she carries with her obsession with the past and questions her fate."

"Looking at the noise, I think they are practicing swordplay."

Lin Yu stared in that direction and suddenly laughed.

Memories came flooding back, and now...it really is a familiar place.

But...if you're just practicing sword skills, how could you create this kind of noise?

It was like the sound of a sword being unsheathed, but it carried a force powerful enough to tear apart space.
