"As long as this open conspiracy is resolved, what is there that cannot be done?"

“She’s reminiscing, so she couldn’t possibly do that.”

"How is she going to kill these people?"

"I don't know, but she's reminiscing, so of course there will be a way!"

……

……

There was no sound in the virtual realm.

Even now, the virtual realm extending ten kilometers outward from the crossroads is still a long way from completion, and sounds remain scarce.

In this environment, Gu Yuqiu's footsteps became very clear.

She waved her hand, and the fireworks in the sky vanished, becoming something in a dream.

At this moment, the superhuman being controlled by the Primal One, having lost his own will, began to tremble involuntarily.

As Gu Yuqiu began to move forward, this trembling became increasingly clear and could no longer be controlled.

Those watching the battle initially couldn't understand, but they quickly realized that it was the killing intent that Gu Yuqiu had accumulated after emerging from a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

This is a weight that is difficult for humans to bear.

With each footstep, an intensely pungent smell of blood began to spread in all directions.

Those tremors then turned into gasps for breath.

Apart from those few experts who had already reached the fourth rank, all the remaining third-rank experts found it difficult to breathe and could not even control their bodies.

Gu Yuqiu continued walking, heading towards the huge phantom behind the crowd, her footsteps gradually fading away.

Every time she walked past a person, a corpse would slowly fall down.

One body.

More than a dozen bodies.

Dozens of bodies.

Gu and Qiu moved as if they were in an empty place.

Her footsteps finally became clear again as the long street was filled with corpses.

Yuan Chu lowered his head, looked at the scene, and said seriously, "This makes no sense, it's unreasonable."

"That makes perfect sense."

Gu Yuqiu looked at it quietly and said, "It's just that you're too weak to imagine my power."

……

……

Outside the virtual realm, the Special Affairs Bureau employees were stunned and speechless. After a moment, they described the entire scene to the other end of the communicator.

He hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help asking, "Is this the end?"

Lu Xiu did not answer the question.

A weathered voice reached his ears.

"This is just the beginning. Killing Huai Nian won't stop here."

"...Are you the bureau chief?"

"Yes, get ready, I'll be there soon."

Chapter 170: Chapter Eighteen - Let Her Grow Old Alone

The special affairs bureau's overseas employee paused for a moment, thinking he had misheard, and quickly asked, "Director, are you coming here in person?"

Every near-god-level powerhouse standing at the peak of the fifth tier is a living natural disaster. Under various complex constraints, they can no longer move around freely, lest they cause unnecessary turmoil.

More importantly, the current situation in Yingzhou is far from ordinary.

Nearly half of the messengers of natural disasters have come to this land because of Su Yan, prompting countless people to ponder the meaning behind this.

The battle that is taking place at this moment is undoubtedly an even bigger surprise.

Although the innocent queen has not yet appeared, no one, including him, believes that this is a sign that the other party has given up on Gu Yuqiu. It is highly likely that she has encountered some kind of accident.

Under these circumstances, the entry of a near-god-level powerhouse into Yingzhou would likely provoke the displeasure of the messengers of natural disasters, further complicating the situation.

In his view, the best option for the Special Affairs Bureau to deal with today's events was simply to observe them from the sidelines and not to do anything unnecessary.

However, he heard from the old director that the other party was about to go to Tokyo. Even after years of experience in intelligence work, he was still shocked and subconsciously checked it again.

"Yes."

Lu Xiu took over the question and said in a detached tone, "The director will arrive in Tokyo soon, and I will come too."

After saying that, he hung up the phone and looked at a subordinate sitting at his desk.

This subordinate's name was Liu Nan. He had suspected Gu Yuqiu, believing that she had serious problems and ulterior motives.

His suspicions proved correct, but it was all in vain because he couldn't bear the truth behind it.

So, in the days following Zhong Chongshan's death, he was promoted but left the front lines, and his work soon became much less demanding.

Even an idiot would understand that this was a deliberate act of neglect.

Of course, when those in power need it, being neglected can also become a form of protection.

The only difference lies in the situation.

“Even in such a tense situation, I am still willing to make time to see you. You should understand that this is because of Zhong Chongshan.”

Lu Xiu paused for a moment, then said, "If you want to repeat your point of view about Gu Yuqiu, then you can leave now. Don't waste your breath."

Those views see Gu Yuqiu as a threat and try their best to destroy him.

The interrogation that caused turmoil in the New Chu Special Affairs Bureau, the first time Gu Yuqiu had ever been interrogated, was the result of Lu Xiu being persuaded by Liu Nan.

"I'm not crazy, I'm not a fanatic, and I won't obsessively stick to my own ideas."

Liu Nan looked at him, remained silent for a moment, and then said, "But I did come for Gu Yuqiu."

Lu Xiu found it interesting, looked up at him, and nodded, signaling him to continue.

"I believe you have already investigated the relationship between Lin Mushi and Gu Yuqiu. It is an extremely intimate relationship, which can be described as a husband-and-wife relationship."

"The innocent queen will definitely be very unhappy to hear you say that."

"That's not important, because the innocent queen can't be on the same side as us, but Lin Mushi can, so we only need to care about her thoughts."

"Then?"

"I think... there's at least a 30% chance that the other side would dare to attack Gu Yuqiu this time."

"Based on my and the director's deduction, it's 70%."

Upon hearing this, Liu Nan's eyes lit up, and he said, "That's even better."

Lu Xiu was somewhat surprised and raised an eyebrow, asking, "What's so good about it?"

"Of course, it's good that it can provide timely help."

Liu Nan said without hesitation, "If we want to ensure that Lin Mushi stays in the Special Affairs Bureau, then we can't just watch Gu Yuqiu get into trouble, we can't stand by and do nothing."

Lu Xiu shook his head and said, "That's nonsense."

If they hadn't had this thought in mind, why would he and the old director have decided to go to Yingzhou instead of staying in Xinchu to watch the show?

"But I think... my thoughts are slightly different from yours."

Liu Nan looked into his eyes and said earnestly, "We must do our best to save Gu Yuqiu, and then, if we are powerless, let her die."

This statement seems contradictory, and its logic is inexplicable, but Lu Xiu understood it perfectly.

He was silent for a moment, then said, "You only have one sentence left."

"The dead cannot be defeated..."

Liu Nan quickly expressed his thoughts: "Lin Mushi is a woman, and it is only natural for her to get married. We have no reason to stop her, so we should give her a reason to live out her days alone."

Lu Xiu looked at him, his disgust no longer concealed, and said in a slightly cold voice, "It's disgusting."

Liu Nan laughed and said calmly, "No matter how disgusting it is, it's the best choice because Lin Mushi is very important."

Lu Xiu looked out the window at the sky and remained silent.

Thinking about the old director's inaction in the battle of Xin Chu, about the words he was hearing now, and about Zhong Chongshan's perhaps meaningless death, he suddenly felt very bored.

Such a despicable idea is nothing short of turning oneself into a slave to self-interest.

He gradually felt tired, and a thought came to mind.

……

……

Yingzhou, that crossroads, ten kilometers away.

Countless gazes fell on the corpses, staring in shock at Gu Yuqiu's back, wondering what had happened and why those people had died like that.

"It is a direct annihilation on a spiritual level after the crushing of will."

A voice suddenly broke the long silence.

The crowd followed the sound and found the speaker, discovering that she was an important figure in the messenger of natural disasters.

The important figure who spoke at this moment was naturally the person who had previously carried out Gu Yuqiu's orders, Su Yan's most trusted secretary.

She not only handled various affairs effectively, but also held a high position on the Ascension Staircase, almost the same as Theresa had been, standing at the end of the fourth tier, just one step away from the fifth tier.

Therefore, people simply cannot understand why someone as powerful and crucial as her would appear in such a place instead of dealing with more important issues.

Many people thought of this, but no one asked, because they weren't idiots.

However, when they discovered that this important figure, the messenger of natural disasters, had found a suitable place to watch the battle in front of everyone and then remained silent, they were bewildered and wondered, "Aren't you going to make a move?"
