"That must be a demon, definitely not an angel, absolutely not!!!"
"Shut up! That... holy light must be God, you ungodly Britons!"
"By the grace of Amaterasu, all others are heretics! Banzai! Imperial Banzai!"
After a while, the allied forces suddenly erupted into a huge uproar.
Fear, fanaticism, madness, and mutual hostility erupted, catching the soldiers' officers off guard in an instant. Some officers, who had no knowledge of the mystical side, were also filled with fear and dread, making the scene even more chaotic in an instant.
Upon seeing this, Aizen's expression shifted slightly from surprise to a mocking look.
This is a fragile alliance.
England and France fought a century-long war. Even if they were to unite now, if a point of conflict arose that could overturn their worldview, they would vent their anger on each other to suppress the nightmare-inducing fear.
Unexpectedly, he didn't even need to provoke them; the other side immediately descended into internal strife.
That's really interesting.
"You really have a twisted sense of humor."
The system made a sarcastic remark, then paused, and said, "But I like your quirky sense of humor."
Taking advantage of their inability to organize effective discipline in a short time, Aizen ignored them and directly began to annihilate the army that broke out from inside the Yuanmingyuan. He then seized the national treasures they had looted and handed them over to the system for safekeeping.
He knew that this chaos wouldn't last long, so he wanted to take advantage of the situation to eliminate the enemy forces inside the Yuanmingyuan as much as possible. Fortunately, there weren't many troops that had broken into the Yuanmingyuan at the moment.
Because he had killed quite a few superhumans before, those superhumans hiding in the shadows could only remain hidden for the time being, waiting for an opportunity to strike. When enough superhumans came to support them, they would attack him, and it would be bad if they accidentally damaged the treasures in the hands of those soldiers.
Meanwhile, a similar thing was happening at the Summer Palace.
The red-haired youth dragged a long, crooked stick wrapped in bandages, the firelight staining the cemetery red.
All around were mummified corpses, completely burned.
"What are you doing? Are you trying to start a war against the Inhumans?"
A cool, clear voice slowly rose from the rooftop on one side.
Looking up, the red-haired youth revealed a fierce smile with downcast eyes: "Are you referring to special individuals like you, 'Others'? You do seem quite strong, but are you just going to watch foreigners trample on our nation's dignity?"
The aloof young man in the Taoist robe frowned slightly: "Didn't your family tell you about the common knowledge and current situation in the world of supernatural beings?"
"My family is truly sorry, we're here."
Tap tap tap.
Soldiers, drawn from other parts of the Summer Palace, arrived with guns at the ready, interrupting the young man's words.
A hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes. The red-haired youth suddenly turned around, took a step, and murmured softly, his robes fluttering even without wind.
Everyone has their own destiny; it's all predetermined by fate.
Some are born to be kings, while others are born to be bandits.
If the path you walk on isn't your own choice, then no one knows where the end is.
"You keep those national treasures safe for me for now."
"Foreign barbarians are rampaging across this land. You may stand by and watch, but the descendants of the Cao family will not allow it!"
"Xu Chu, shatter them!"
I went to bed early last night and couldn't continue writing.
Chapter 184 I Have Seven Guardian Spirits Like This (18/18)
As he watched as all sorts of artifacts, large and small, were thrown at him out of thin air, Li cursed inwardly.
"The Seven Forms of the Big Dipper!"
With a flick of his sleeve, an invisible, gentle force swirled out like a stream, softly supporting more than thirty antiques of different types.
At the same time, he heard a surprised voice that sounded rather irritating.
"Oh, not bad."
He acted so "recklessly" only because he judged that the other party was not much weaker than himself.
He tossed the items out, but was still somewhat surprised that the other person caught them all so effortlessly.
But then it was his turn.
The young Taoist priest named Li Ze saw the other party turn his head and murmur softly, his robes fluttering without any wind.
Everyone has their own destiny; it's all predetermined by fate.
Some are born to be kings, while others are born to be bandits.
If the path you walk on isn't your own choice, then no one knows where the end is.
"You keep those national treasures safe for me for now."
"Foreign "303"
"The barbarians are rampaging across this land. You may stand by and watch, but the descendants of the Cao family will not allow it!"
"Xu Chu, shatter them!"
With a final shout, a massive figure swiftly materialized behind the red-haired youth.
His deep red armor obscured his face, and he held a giant, ghost-face-shaped hammer in his hand, which was as big as a person. An invisible aura of menace emanated from his body.
"What is that?!"
"A ghost! A ghost!"
"Is this some mysterious power of China? No, we can't beat it!"
"Can we really be enemies of such inhuman beings?"
"Damn it, fire!"
Da da da.
Amidst the stunned and terrified Allied forces, only a few sporadic gunshots rang out.
The red-haired youth wore a disdainful smile. The next second, a loud boom was heard as the giant hammer crashed down! While blocking a few bullets, the ground shook violently, and many soldiers lost their footing and were thrown to the ground. The cracked ground spewed out scorching hot lava and flames.
"what!!!"
Amidst the constant screams, soldiers marched toward their deaths.
A single, defensive, heavy blow killed nearly half of the enemy, leaving the rest almost completely incapacitated.
Compared to the fear and despair of these people, Li, standing on the rooftop, stared in astonishment at the massive giant: "This size is just too exaggerated."
Moreover, Xu Chu from the Three Kingdoms era... oh, is this kid cultivating to summon spirits? But the solidity of his soul is too exaggerated, it feels even stronger than those spirits contracted by shamans in Northeast China.”
As a direct disciple of the leader of the Quanzhen Sect, Li Ze was quite familiar with people from other worlds. Furthermore, due to his cultivation of both body and spirit, he immediately recognized this person… “Xu Chu”.
A spirit.
The so-called "elves"
It's actually just that the animal has achieved enlightenment through spiritual practice.
Compared to humans, animals possess an "innate twist"
The proportion is even smaller, and among them, even fewer are capable of cultivation.
And Ma Xian is with these "spirits".
They sign contracts to summon these beings from afar to fight for them, either through soul summoning or by having them fight as spirits.
In addition, there are the divine attacks of the Maoshan Sect, the divine mask passed down by a certain senior of the Quanxing Sect, and so on, which are all similar abilities of possession. Li Ze had never seen such a method of summoning the dead out of thin air. He had only heard a few examples when his master talked about the history of the supernatural beings, but he had never seen it with his own eyes.
Bang! "Ha!"
With a loud shout, he swept his heavy hammer across, sending all the remaining Allied soldiers flying.
The red-haired youth replied coldly without turning his head, "Please, no, Xu Chu is my guardian spirit."
Guardian Spirit
Li frowned slightly; the word itself was not difficult to understand.
Xu Chu is a spirit, a spirit used to protect a certain target. Since he is this person's guardian spirit, then he should be the one being protected.
"Wait a minute, he just said he was a descendant of the Cao family."
Suddenly, Li Ze seemed to realize something, and his usually indifferent gaze turned somewhat suspicious: "Your surname is Cao, and you are protected by Xu Chu. You are a descendant of Cao Cao!"
"That's right, my lord is a descendant of the Prime Minister."
Xu Chu, who had turned his head, answered in a deep, muffled voice.
""
Li fell silent for a moment.
So far, in the world of supernatural beings, he does know that Zhuge Liang, the Marquis of Wu in that era, had descendants who have passed down his family lineage. Moreover, the Marquis of Wu's family is usually more low-key than the Quanzhen Sect, but in terms of their hidden status in the world of supernatural beings, the Zhuge family's status is no less than that of the Quanzhen Sect.
After all, he inherited the mantle of Zhuge Liang, one of the greatest extraordinary figures in Chinese history! But, was Cao Cao "always hiding his identity?"
Li secretly guessed.
"Regardless, I hope you can stop."
Individually speaking, foreign superhumans are not stronger than us. Even if there were superhumans from eight different countries, our Chinese heritage would not be enough to make us afraid. However, once the existence of superhumans and their battles involve ordinary people, it means that we have actively broken the balance.
"At that time, even if their superhumans openly commit massacres here, no superhumans from other countries will criticize them. Ordinary people will suffer even greater casualties and losses."
Hearing the other party's advice, the red-haired youth turned his head and revealed a ruthless look only a hero could possess: "Then let them come! At worst, I, Cao Yanbing, will take them on myself! If they attack ordinary people, then for every one they kill, I will kill ten! If they dare to slaughter 10 people on this land, then I will slaughter their entire nation!"
"You, you"
Li Ze, who was always called a genius, opened his eyes wide and felt the other party's cold-bloodedness of "better to die than live in dishonor." He couldn't help but take a few steps back. However, as a genius of the Quanzhen Sect, he quickly regained his composure.
But just as he was about to speak in rebuttal, he saw Xu Chu kneel down on one knee with a resolute voice.
boom.
A kneeling that caused the earth to crack.
"This humble general, Xu Chu, is willing to give his life for his lord!"
"You, you're all insane! Do you really think you can handle everything with just one person and one spirit?"
Deeply shaken by this unwavering loyalty, Li Ze could no longer maintain his composure and roared angrily, "No matter how strong you are, you are still made of flesh and blood! Those bullets may not be easy for us superhumans to hit, but that doesn't mean you won't be injured or die if they do! Is it worth causing even greater casualties for the sake of the Manchu dynasty?"
Besides these reasons, Li Ze also didn't want to see this genius, who was even younger than him, die so easily.
Shouldering the responsibility of the entire nation single-handedly is something even Xiang Yu, the Hegemon-King, could not do. He believed that this... descendant of the Cao family was too arrogant, to the point of looking down on everyone.
But what angered him even more was that this... Cao Yanbing, who was young and impetuous and ignorant of the common knowledge of supernatural beings, was one thing, but this was the famous "Tiger Fool"
He just lets things slide like this, doesn't he realize that this will only push them into a fire pit?
Just as he was secretly annoyed, he was startled awake by the other person's impatient voice.
"Hey, stop talking to yourself, okay?"
"Correct the four '44' errors in your statement."
"First, whether you can shoulder all the responsibilities is not up to you. Don't assume that just because you can't do it, others can't."
"Secondly, I know more about firearms than you do; these things are still in their infancy."
"Thirdly, I'm not doing this for the sake of the Manchu dynasty. How much of these artifacts do you think are treasures brought by the Manchus? Over 90% of them are treasures left over from the Han and Tang dynasties thousands of years ago! This time, they captured the capital and successfully looted it. It wasn't just the Manchu dynasty that was slapped in the face; it was the bones of the Chinese people from five thousand years ago that were broken!"
"Finally, who told you that I am a person with one spirit?"
Such a guardian spirit
"I have seven sevens!"
Chapter 185 Isn't this favorable wind blowing quite well? (1/21)
Li Ze stood there, stunned, watching as Cao Yanbing, a descendant of the Cao family, led his guardian spirit Xu Chu out of the Summer Palace.
Was he wrong?
"Could it be that I'm wrong?"
He ignored Cao Yanbing's other rebuttals, but the third point was constantly imprinted in his mind.
Looking down at the jade pendant he held in his hand, Li Ze trembled slightly.
