Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 348 Frost Concubine
"Boom!"

As soon as the rolling corpse gas dissipated, Chu Xiong's legs softened and he knelt down heavily, and the long sword in his hand fell to the ground.

Then the whole person fell heavily to the ground. His head was still there and there were no fatal injuries on his body, but he was no longer breathing.

After killing Chu Xiong, Xiao Ran only felt the big knife in his hand humming, and the blood on the blade became more intense.

"This knife..."

Xiao Ran gently stroked the blade with his palm, and felt the murderous aura contained in it become stronger. It was okay in his own hands, but if it fell into the hands of others, he would probably go crazy like Uncle Fang in an instant.

"After all, it is a keepsake of the Fang family. E-grade is definitely not the true grade of this sword. It's just that it may be because I am in the wrong profession and I can't really grasp the power of this sword."

This was not something Xiao Ran imagined, but it was written on it.

[This item has a strong spirituality and is somewhat dangerous. If you want to truly unlock the special effects of this item, please try to activate it using the executioner spell! ! ] (First appeared in Chapter 150)

The executioner profession is an advanced version of the D-level profession [Barber] series, that is, C-level.

Not to mention that it is difficult to meet this condition, it is not easy to obtain this profession even if you want to.

My three professions are already full. Unless I find a way to separate one of them, it will be impossible to switch to the executioner profession.

"Well, let's take it one step at a time. It won't affect me much anyway."

After putting away the [Guillotine], Xiao Ran did not forget to put away Chu Xiong's body as well.

This guy is a man of extraordinary swordsmanship. Both his swordsmanship and other skills are priceless to him.

Even if he is transformed into a corpse slave in the end, it would be a huge profit for him.

"Brother, are you okay?"

Dong Ruopu walked up quickly and asked with concern, then looked embarrassed: "That guy was too fast just now, I..."

Dong Ruopu also knew that he was not strong enough. He had seen a lot along the way and understood a lot.

The so-called Jianghu is nothing but a makeshift troupe. All the grudges and love-hate relationships are fake.

The reason why I am still alive today is mostly because of Xiao Ran.

"Don't say anything. It's not your fault. Besides, Yu Ting won't blame you. She has her own plans."

Xiao Ran had no intention of blaming Dong Ruopu at all.

Besides, Yuting naturally has her own arrangements, and this matter may not be as simple as they see.

"What about the rest?"

Xiao Ran looked back and found that the Nuo disciples who had rushed up with him had already run away.

"When Fairy Qingnv was kidnapped, they all ran away."

These disciples are not fools and they know how to assess the situation. Seeing that their sect leader has run away, why would they stay here and wait?

Whether Chu Xiong wins or Xiao Ran wins, it will not be of any benefit to them, so it is better to run away as soon as possible.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran picked up the knife used by Chu Xiong.

This knife is pretty good. Although it is not a cursed object, it was able to fight against the guillotine for so long and only had a few cracks.

This knife is indeed a fine product. Xiao Ran handed the knife to Dong Ruopu and said, "Take it for self-defense and stay here. I think it should be safe here. You can hide here and go out when it is safe outside."

Xiao Ran had read Li Shao's memories and found that there were not many masters in the Nuo sect.

Even among the thirty-six generals, most of them are just ordinary people, and some are not even third-rate masters.

The reason why most of them became divine generals was because they were needed to win over various forces in Wancheng when the Nuo sect was first established. Without the Nuo opera masks, they are nothing.

If the thirty-six divine generals are like this, one can see how powerful the disciples who are on guard are.

Although Dong Ruopu's strength is dismal, the [Mask of the Hercules] that Xiao Ran gave him increased his strength by 15 points. It is no exaggeration to say that it is a complete crushing blow to ordinary people.

With this knife to protect me, there shouldn't be any problem hiding here.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, big brother."

Dong Ruopu also knew that as a burden, he was simply a drag following behind his elder brother.

After explaining everything to Dong Ruopu, Xiao Ran planned to go find Qingnv.

"Big Brother!!"

At this time, Dong Ruopu suddenly called Xiao Ran and looked at Xiao Ran with red eyes: "Brother, I have something else to tell you."

"Ok?"

"Ruo Pu is my childhood name, but my real name is Dong Chang."

Xiao Ran was not angry when she heard this, but nodded with a smile: "Not bad, you know to use an alias when you go out, but don't use your nickname next time."

Xiao Ran bowed to Dong Chang, then got up and went downstairs.

As soon as he walked down the Dengyun Tower, Xiao Ran climbed up the wall and looked at the huge Nuo Gate, thinking about Li Shao's memory in his heart.

But after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't find the location in Li Shao's memory where Qingnv might have been taken away.

"This girl..."

Xiao Ran frowned, but he was not worried about Qingnu's safety.

Shang Yunyi needs Qingnu as a shield. If he dares to touch Qingnu, Shuangfei will definitely not let her go.

But what is Gao Yuting planning?
At first, when she joined the Thirteen Heroes, I thought she was just like Dong Ruopu, a newbie in the world of martial arts.

Later I found out that this girl was no rookie and had more tricks than a hornet's nest.

If not for this, her poor swordsmanship would be enough to embarrass Huang Chao, who had just entered the Taoist sect.

I'm afraid he joined the Thirteen Heroes from the very beginning just to target the Nuo Sect.

Just as Xiao Ran was thinking about how to find Gao Yuting's whereabouts.

"Boom."

The whole sky shook violently.

Dark red lightning tore through the void and struck heavily on the city gate.

This time, the building above the city gate was pierced through, and the kerosene stored inside exploded.

"Boom..." A dazzling flame rose into the sky. The moment everyone saw the flame, they suddenly felt as if their hearts were pierced along with it, as if a hole was pierced in their hearts.

A chill rose from my heart and quickly spread throughout my body.

"It's over, it's over, the city is broken!"

"Run, run, run!!!"

Seeing this, those gangsters became desperate and just wanted to escape as quickly as possible, even if it meant finding a place to hide.

"broken!"

Xiao Ran's face changed as he saw yellow clouds surging in the distance and spreading directly into the city.

Without any hesitation, he ran straight to the Gao family.

His wife's situation was safe at least for the time being, but the same could not be said for his sister-in-law.

Although Concubine Shuang is here, regardless of whether she is real or fake, she has not taken any action for such a long time, there must be some reason.

He protected his sister-in-law first so that Concubine Shuang wouldn't have to be distracted. Of course, he had another little idea.

I have protected your sister-in-law, isn't it time for you, Shuang Fei, to save your apprentice?
Xiao Ran never doubted Shuang Fei's strength.

With this kind of power that can kill people from a distance, saving his wife is a piece of cake.

I have to solve Shuang Fei's concerns first before I can get her to take action.

The Gao family was not far away, but when Xiao Ran rushed over, the shouting and killing of Huang Zai’s army could be heard in the distance.

It was obvious that Huang Zai's army had already entered the city.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran immediately quickened his pace. His figure was like a flying bird, stepping on the roofs, and he could often cross the street in just a few steps.

“Warning!! Warning!!”

At this moment, warnings continued to be heard.

"You are affected by the power of the Locust God. All cursed items will lose their effect."

"You are affected by the power of the Locust God, and all attributes decrease by 10 points."

As the city gate was breached, the original power of the Nuo sect was also dispelled. Xiao Ran was not only affected by the curse of the Locust God again, but the effect was even stronger than the last time.

This immediately made Xiao Ran feel his body sink slightly, and his physical fitness and functions dropped by at least 30% in an instant.

If the influence of the curse is taken into account, the strength has dropped by at least three-fifths.

Fortunately, my abilities do not only come from the cursed object. Otherwise, if I were an ordinary beginner, my current strength would probably be in danger.

"Sister-in-law... No, elder sister! It's me, Xiao Ran!"

Xiao Ran came to the courtyard where Gao Lan lived with ease and called out softly.

Xiao Ran walked in the yard and shouted loudly.

But no one responded. Xiao Ran walked quickly into the room, but there was no one there.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran simply released his mental power and began to sense the surroundings.

At this time, a wisp of snow fell on the leaves next to it. Xiao Ran looked sideways and saw a few snowflakes appearing out of thin air and falling in the distance from time to time.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran's eyes lit up and he hurriedly followed Xuehua's instructions.

Gao Lan's backyard is very large, or rather, this was originally a back garden specially enclosed by the Gao family, which is a small hill.

Gao Lan was just left here because her family didn't want to see her.

The further Xiao Ran walked toward the back of the mountain, the colder the air around him became.

It was not until I arrived at a cave in the deep forest that I saw my sister-in-law Gao Lan wrapped in a thick quilt, like a dumpling, curled up in the corner with her eyes closed.

"Miss!"

Seeing this, Xiao Ran quickly stepped forward and took out more bedding from the space to cover Gao Lan, then looked up and looked around.

Inside the small cave there was only a faint ray of light shining down from a hole on the top of the mountain.

In the dim light, he saw a woman sitting cross-legged with her long hair draped over her body, her back facing him. Every part of her body seemed to be flashing with starlight, she looked otherworldly, like a fairy who had fallen from heaven to earth.

"Frost Concubine!"

This was the first time Xiao Ran met Shuang Fei, but the more he looked at her, the more he felt something was wrong.

"She...is not alive!"

His eyes can see things that ordinary people cannot see. He can say with certainty that the Frost Concubine in front of him is definitely not a living person.

Noticing Xiao Ran's gaze, Shuang Fei did not turn around, but just said, "What's going on outside?"

Shuang Fei's voice was very soft and ethereal, just like the voice of a spiritual being in a temple or Taoist temple, with a special penetrating quality.

"The Yellow Disaster Army has already come in."

Princess Shuang sighed and remained silent.

"Um... can't you take action?"

Xiao Ran asked with some doubt in his heart.

With Shuang Fei's strength, as long as she takes action, whether it is the evil spirits of the Nuo clan or the locust god, she can wipe them out with one sword.

Frost Concubine was silent for a moment before she spoke: "Okay, but I can only use one sword."

"A sword?"

Xiao Ran frowned.

But Shuang Fei slightly side-glanced, stared at Xiao Ran and said: "Haven't you already seen my corpse in Zhashan? Do you still need me to explain it to you?"

"Ah? You know?"

Now it was Xiao Ran's turn to feel embarrassed, as his little action had already been seen by others.

Fortunately, Shuang Fei did not intend to pursue the matter, and only explained:
“I am Shuang Fei and I am not Shuang Fei. The real Shuang Fei is dead. I am just a trace of her soul left. The soul without the body is like a tree with its roots cut off.

I can only strike once, with this sword I can kill the locust god and the Nuo sect, but after this sword I will disperse, which side do you think I should strike..."
