Chapter 651: Chapter 198: The Plot Unfolds, Third Grade Emerges; Tigers and Wolves Devour the Exotic Beast Together
It was an overwhelming and unbelievable flow of Yin and Yang Qi!
Yet this Yin and Yang Qi was different from any other Qi in the world. It was harmonious and perfect, full and abundant, naturally flawless, concentrated within a human-shaped silhouette, flowing smoothly without interruption.
Such a level of harmony in Yin and Yang aura, Li Yuan had rarely witnessed...
Because it simply couldn’t appear on someone practicing the "Source Blood Power System."
Li Yuan frowned, staring in a mix of suspicion and wonder.
Suddenly, he had an epiphany.
Li Yuan always believed that blessings and misfortunes are intertwined.
Blessings are what misfortunes rely on...
Misfortunes are where blessings lean on...
A flicker of a strange color passed through his eyes, a twisted smile appearing on his lips.
This... though unexpected, was precisely the opportunity he had been waiting for.
If it hadn’t come, he would obediently become the "Dragon Vein" Emperor.
But since it has come, then... let’s do it!
...
Soon.
From the battlefield came a gentle tapping sound of a cane on the ground.
It was a man leaning on an emerald green Li Staff, hair neatly tied, wearing a wreath made of exotic flowers of various colors.
The man seemed to be just over twenty, with a balanced physique and a gentle complexion, his smile warm as a spring breeze.
The green leaves that still existed on the Li Staff in his hand changed with each step he took...
Blossoming, fruiting, the fruits vanishing, the green leaves withering, then falling, turning into a bare staff, only to sprout again, blossom...
It was as if the world had hit the "fast-forward button," with the cycle of seasons accelerating in sync with his steps.
If you looked closely, the warmth in the man’s eyes was not directed at people but rather at the flowers and plants.
Only when he looked at the flowers and plants by the roadside did he show this expression.
Where did he come from?
No one knew.
Why was he here?
No one knew.
Perhaps he had silently watched the growth of some genius youth, but that youth had not yet matured.
Finally, the man in plain clothes arrived here.
He looked up at the battlefield full of ruins before him, halted, and displayed an indifferent demeanor.
His extraordinary presence seemed to make people hesitant to neglect him.
Lü Xuanxian swiftly set off with her spear, looking at the man before her, calmly asking, "Who are you?"
The man in plain clothes replied, "Su Mushen."
"Su Mushen?" Lü Xuanxian lightly frowned.
The man in plain clothes said blandly, "I am here only to ask that the General cease obstructing their fusion.
This world needs the Great Unity of Yin Yang, needs to return to its peak.
Only then will powerful beings be born to resist future calamities."
Lü Xuanxian looked at him with a grave frown, her five fingers instinctively gripping the spear tightly.
She had yet to speak.
The man in plain clothes had already let out a gentle sigh.
Because he seemed to already know Lü Xuanxian’s answer.
He felt regret for this answer.
But it was only regret, nothing more.
He already knew the outcome long ago.
So, he made his move...
The Li Staff in his hand pressed lightly, emitting a crisp sound like a stone falling into a silent spring.
At this sound, an illusory world manifested from nothingness, instantly turning into another world.
Massive vines, disorderly aerial roots, bizarre flowers and trees, vast long grasses, all appeared... It was as if a world filled entirely with flora suddenly emerged.
Moreover, each of these plants exuded unimaginable terrifying auras.
"To think and enter the marvelous realm of Yin and Yang! Hmph!" Lü Xuanxian’s eyes were grave, but she grinned, then gripped her long halberd confrontationally. In the next moment, white shadows flowed in her eyes, and a scene of a real battlefield began to appear around her.
The battlefield was empty, with only remnants of troops.
Thousands upon tens of thousands of broken weapons were scattered chaotically across the desolate gray land.
The plain-clothed man named Su Mushen glanced at the flowing white shadows in her eyes and let out a light laugh.
In this laughter, there was no ridicule, only amusement...
He laughed and shook his head, not even sparing a glance at this martial god of the Great Zhou from a thousand years ago, this peerless general who had subdued one era after another — Lü Xuanxian.
The vines and plants behind him suddenly grew wildly.
Lü Xuanxian swung her spear, all weapons departed from the battlefield, soaring into the sky, forming a massive, slowly rotating soldier wheel behind her.
"Go!"
Lü Xuanxian pointed her long halberd, and all the weapons surged forward like a returning torrent, transforming into a fierce metallic vortex, its howling sharpness splitting the eardrums, rushing mightily ahead!
This strike, even Li Yuan back then could barely break after mastering the Celestial Eye.
But is this all Lü Xuanxian could do?
Of course not, so at this moment her strike was even stronger than when she faced Li Yuan.
The weapons were even more chaotic and disorderly, some even manipulative contrary to her train of thought, controlled by instinct, haphazardly controlled, all to prevent the kind of unpredictable foresight Li Yuan once had.
Yet...
This grand scene of thousands of weapons returning was easily shattered by a few of the opposing green vines.
The vines continued forward, instantly piercing into Lü Xuanxian’s body, pinning her to the ground.
Su Mushen did not even glance at her, instead proceeding forward, reaching the Golden Dragon Palace Carriage, lightly brushing with his hand, only to find it empty.
Su Mushen asked, "General Lü, why did the Emperor betray in the end?"
"Heh..." Lü Xuanxian’s gaze shifted to Xie Feng, who was pursuing the Ghost Riders on the other side.
Xie Feng saw this Grand General swiftly defeated and was quite astonished and uncertain, but the General’s valor and faith in the loyalty of his thirty thousand Hanzhou Iron Cavalry made him still respond.
He abruptly turned his horse, looking toward Su Mushen, and asked, "What exactly is your allegiance, sir?"
