Quick Wear: This Cannon Fodder is Delicate and Expensive

Chapter 154 It’s Not Easy to Be a Ghost Messenger in the Underworld (15)

Through the contact over the past few days, Shi Qi discovered.

Mo Xuan really is...a puppet emperor.

He only had the title of emperor, but did not have the supreme power of an emperor.

In addition, Chen Feng's health has recovered and he has been involved in government affairs again. Mo Xuan has recently felt that he is in a dilemma.

But Shi Qi didn't think that Mo Xuan really had no power of his own. How could a child who grew up in the palace be really weak?

It just lacks the right time and the right method.

Mo Xuan is actually very smart. He knows how to show his weakness, letting his opponents lower their guard so that he can conserve his energy.

......

It was a fine day.

In the royal hunting ground, many ministers had selected their war horses and were ready for battle.

"Your Majesty, I heard that you have been in poor health recently. Why don't we cancel the meeting this time?" A bearded man sitting on his horse said with a smile, quite tentatively.

Mo Xuan's eyes trembled slightly, and he said calmly: "I am in good health, and I will compete with you all today."

"Your Majesty is a great rider. It is my humble honor to be able to participate!" said the bearded man, then stepped aside.

"The scope of this competition is the entire Laishan Mountain. There are many types of prey. In the end, we will gather back to the camp, check the prey, and win by quantity." said a minister on the side.

Mo Xuan looked at the many elite soldiers behind him, his eyes flashed, and he nodded lightly.

"Bang~" a gong sounded, and the deep sound spread throughout the stadium.

"Cough-cough-cough!"

The whistling sound passed through, bringing with it the wind and sand, and the troops were divided into several groups.

In the blink of an eye, the only thing left on the scene was a sky full of wind and sand.

Shi Qi looked at the yellow earth all around him, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

He calmed down and chased after him.

Mo Xuan's mount is a reddish-brown horse with beautiful fur and high quality.

The young man is holding a bow and arrow in his left hand at this moment, his eyes are cold and his expression is serious. Although he is thin, he gives people a feeling of being determined to win.

There was a rustling sound in the bushes.

A gleam of light flashed across Mo Xuan's eyes, and he pointed left and right, moving his fingers slightly towards a certain place.

"Ah~" A whimpering sound came from the bushes, and the next second, a white rabbit rolled to the side.

The white hair was instantly dyed blood red, which was somewhat horrifying.

Not long after, he stopped breathing.

Mo Xuan dismounted, picked up the rabbit expressionlessly, and threw it into the basket.

Shi Qi watched from the side, paying attention to the situation around him, and was slightly speechless.

The atmosphere on this road was clearly wrong, it was too quiet.

Didn’t Mo Xuan notice?

"Mo Xuan, let's change the way." Shi Qi said lightly. Seeing that the young man had no reaction and continued to move forward, he finally closed his mouth.

He couldn't see her, so it was useless for her to say more.

Besides...if something really happened to Mo Xuan, it would be a good thing for her.

Shi Qi came back to his senses and continued to follow Mo Xuan deeper into the cave.

The deeper they went, the more obvious those broken white soul shadows became. White mist gradually rose among the shadows of the trees. Even though it was daytime, it looked a little weird.

Shi Qi only felt that the dark power in his body was restored doubly, and the Soul-Catching Lock was faintly beating in his body, as if it was revived with full blood.

Why is the yin energy so strong here? Logically speaking, Mo Xuan has a soul-chasing talisman on him, so he shouldn't attract these spirits.

Could it be that...a Taoist priest was defeated here?

Bit by bit, Mo Xuan soon filled the basket with prey.

The young man looked majestic and breathed steadily as he continued to walk deeper into the cave.

When Shi Qi's spiritual power was restored, he suddenly felt relaxed, his eyebrows slightly raised, and his mood became much better.

But when he saw people continuing to go deeper, the corners of his mouth twitched.

"Mo Xuan, if you seek death yourself, it will be a good thing for me." Shi Qi sighed lightly and continued to follow.

Arrived at an open space.

Suddenly, the horse began to neigh and roar, and stopped somewhere and struggled.

Mo Xuan glanced coldly and jumped off the horse lightly.

He looked around, drew his sword and raised his eyes: "How long will we remain in ambush? Come on together."

Shi Qi stood aside, watching the boy's actions calmly, without any emotion.

Suddenly, dark shadows flew out from the woods, holding long knives, and attacked the young man in the middle with swift and sharp movements.

There was a group of men in black, about a dozen of them, wearing silver masks, with strong builds and sinister looks. They must be assassins sent by someone.

This road is remote and strange, so an ambush must have been set up long ago.

Shi Qi looked at the young man and understood something.

Mo Xuan must have known about this and came here on purpose to find some evidence...

But with this small body...can he win?

A sickly fifteen-year-old boy and a group of strong killers, the result... isn't it obvious?

Shi Qi sighed slightly, blaming himself for not being able to eat.

Otherwise, I would be eating melon seeds and watching Mo Xuan being abused.

"Host, you are so cruel." The bald man said pitifully with his eyes blinking.

"He won't die anyway. His life span has been extended. At most he will just be seriously injured." Shi Qi said lightly, feeling a little regretful.

“But it’s a good thing that your dark power has recovered. I don’t know which kind-hearted person accidentally made a formation and helped you.” Tu Tu said happily.

Shi Qi: “…”

On the other side, the battle between Mo Xuan and the man in black entered a white-hot stage. The enemy outnumbered us and was strong while we were weak.

Although Mo Xuan's martial arts skills were not low, he was indeed weak. At this time, his right arm was injured, and he was shaking a little while holding the sword, barely able to withstand the attack.

A faint golden light also appeared on the ground, and more and more souls appeared around.

The boy's yang energy was damaged and his breath gradually weakened, but Shi Qi only felt that the strength in his body was stronger than before.

"Hey, kid... help me." Mo Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly, his expression was indifferent. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, turned sideways and flipped to Shi Qi's side.

Shi Qi was stunned, expressionless: "......"

"What are you standing there for?" The boy's slightly hoarse voice made people's ears itch.

Shi Qi was startled and pointed at himself: "Are you... talking to me?"

"What else? You have enough ability now, right? Help me... get something. Do you see the man in black at the back? Help me get the silver medal on his waist."

Shi Qi dodged calmly and said in a light tone: "No."

"You! Why? I was helping you to restore your strength...hiss" the young man said as he turned sideways and was stabbed on the arm again.

"You lied to me." Shi Qi said coldly.

"I'll explain it to you. Now... I'm counting on you." The young man's voice trembled slightly, with a hint of pleading in it.

"Promise me one thing and I will help you." Shi Qi looked at the young man in front of him and said decisively.

"it is good."

Shi Qi was stunned for a moment, and after getting the response, his figure flashed.

With just a few easy moves, the silver medal was firmly on Mo Xuan's body.

Shi Qi spread out his hands and a purple light appeared.

Suddenly, it attacked towards the open space.

In an instant, the soil on the ground cracked and vibrated violently, and the man in black fell to the ground.

Before Mo Xuan could react to what was happening, when he opened his eyes again, he found himself being held by the collar and suspended above the forest.

"Explain." Shi Qi looked at the struggling boy in front of him and said with some displeasure.

"Let me go first!" The young man was slightly angry, staring at Shi Qi with his glass-like starry eyes.

"But how did you ask others to do it? Mo Xuan, you are very powerful...how dare you use me." Shi Qi looked at the flushed little face in front of him and raised his eyebrows slightly.

She had to admit that she had underestimated Mo Xuan. Although he was only fifteen years old, he was very capable.

Not only did he take advantage of her, he also wanted to make a deal with her.

But...that's good, so she doesn't have to speak first.
