Chapter 5415 Old Friend

The black stone in Xu Pei's hand obviously posed a huge threat to Ying Wu, and there might even be some special connection that could take Ying Wu's life.

Otherwise, Xu Pei would not have dared to threaten Ying Wu so arrogantly with the stone in his hand.

"Put down the life stone now, and I can spare your life."

Suddenly, Ying Wu spoke, his voice was very low, vicissitudes, hoarseness, and sadness.

This voice, Chen Yang felt a little familiar, but for a moment, he couldn't remember whose voice it belonged to.

"I hold the life stone given to me by the skeleton, and you can die without a burial place with just one thought, and you dare to threaten me."

Xu Pei's face was ferocious, but he didn't dare to really kill Ying Wu, because Ying Wu was his only support. If Ying Wu died, he would only end up dead when facing Chen Yang.

"Put down the life stone."

Ying Wu stared at Chen Yang, but was talking to Xu Pei, with a little more anger and murderous intent in his tone.

"You're looking for death!"

Xu Pei's eyes widened, his face grim, as if he was about to trigger the Life Stone and kill Ying Wu.

At this moment, Ying Wu suddenly slashed behind him with a sword, at an extremely fast speed, and the sword light swept across, cutting off Xu Pei's wrist.

The palm fell to the ground, and the rune light flowing on the surface of the Life Stone in the palm of his hand quickly dimmed, and completely lost its luster in the blink of an eye.

"You're crazy!"

Xu Pei was shocked. He didn't expect Ying Wu to attack him. What was going on? This was the killer hired by Peng Yan. Was he here to kill Dongfang Xuan?

At this time, Chen Yang was also suspicious. Ying Wu's behavior was too strange. He did not relax his vigilance and was ready to attack at any time.

Before Xu Pei's palm fell to the ground, a cold light flashed, and Ying Wu had already cut off Xu Pei's neck with a sword.

Accompanied by a column of blood rising into the sky, Xu Pei's head also flew up, his face full of shock, his mouth opened, as if shouting something, but unable to make a sound.

Bang.

The head fell to the ground and rolled to the dark corner. Even if Xu Pei died, he could not figure out why Yingwu would attack him.

Chen Yang looked at Yingwu who put away the sword, with a solemn expression on his face, and said: "Who are you? I should know you."

"Chen Yang, this huge Thirteen States, I thought we would never meet again, but I didn't expect that we would meet here. You are still so talented. In just over two years, you have become a tyrant. I admire you from the bottom of my heart."

Yingwu's eyes showed admiration, and his tone was full of emotion.

Hearing this, Chen Yang's face changed, and he immediately remembered several people who went from Baijie to Zhonghaojie with him, namely Duan Yunxian, Li Shuheng, Mulanxi, Chu Guie, and Wanjun.

The entire Thirteen States is too big, and there is no information about where they are distributed. It is difficult for Chen Yang to find them.

So Chen Yang did not take the initiative to look for them.

But he did not expect that today in Gujiao City, facing the killer hired by Peng Yan, it would be his old friend.

He stared at Yingwu, was silent for a while, his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Wanjun, you are Wanjun."

"That's right."

Yingwu nodded, without removing the mask on her face, with a bit of bitterness in her eyes, she said: "I thought who was the Dongfang Xuan they asked me to assassinate, but I didn't expect it to be you."

Chen Yang touched his cheek and said in surprise: "I have already changed my appearance, how did you know it was me?"

Wanjun said: "When I was in Huomen, I was very jealous of you and often observed you. I could easily confirm your behavior and energy fluctuations. In addition, Jiyin Palace is searching for you, so I am more certain that Dongfang Xuan is your identity under your disguise."

"This time it's too coincidental."

Chen Yang laughed. He was very happy to see an old friend.

But looking at Wanjun's appearance, he was mostly sighing, without the joy of reunion after a long absence, and even a bit bitter.

Obviously, Wanjun's experience was not very good after arriving in the Thirteen States.

Chen Yang asked: "Wanjun, what has happened to you in the past two years? Your realm has improved so fast that you have become an eight-fold overlord."

"This is not my power, but someone else's forcible blessing on me, and because of these powers, my life span is less than a year."

Wanjun smiled bitterly, glanced at the black life stone on the ground, and said: "Now, if the skeleton knows that I have not completed the task, I am afraid that I will not live for even a year, and I will be executed by them soon."

Chen Yang frowned and said: "What is going on?"

Wanjun sighed, and then told Chen Yang the whole story.

It turned out that after he was teleported to Zhonghao Realm, he was in Youzhou under the jurisdiction of Yin Palace. At that time, he was seriously injured due to energy shock, but fortunately he was saved by a killer of the skeleton.

The person who saved him was a good person. He originally planned to send him away after curing him.

However, he was discovered by the people of the skeleton.

Wanjun's benefactor's life span is about to end, so the top leaders of the Skeleton use cruel secret methods to transfer the power of Wanjun's benefactor to Wanjun.

As a corresponding side effect, Wanjun only has three years left to live, and after three years, he will slowly decompose and die.

If he doesn't want to die so miserably, Wanjun can only return to the Skeleton Altar and pass his power to the next person, so that he can also die peacefully.

And the power of almost all killers in the entire Skeleton is passed from one person to another in this way.

They are not people, but tools for the Skeleton to kill people.

In the eyes of the top leaders of the skeleton, they are just a container of power and have no value.

Because most of the killers in the skeleton are forced, in order to let the employer control the killer, the top leaders of the skeleton refined the life stone. As long as the employer holds the life stone and activates the formation, it can cause great pain to the killer, and in serious cases, it can even kill the killer.

So just now, Xu Pei was so arrogant when he held the life stone.

Unfortunately, he underestimated the speed of Wanjun's attack.

However, even if Wanjun got this life stone now, he still can't get out of the control of the skeleton.

Because in the skeleton, there is another life stone, called the life stone.

If the killer rebels, as long as the top leaders of the skeleton crush the life stone, the killer will gradually decompose and eventually die miserably.

Hearing this, Chen Yang frowned and said, "So, if you want to get rid of the Skeleton, you have to get your natal stone back."

Wan Jun shook his head and said, "I only have less than a year left, what's the point of getting the natal stone back. What's more, although the Skeleton is only a subordinate organization of the Yin Palace, it is full of masters. It is not easy to sneak in and take away the natal stone quietly."

"Since you and I have met, how can I stand by and watch you die."

Chen Yang grabbed Wan Jun's arm and said seriously, "Don't move, let me see your physical condition first."
