Chapter 1154: Intrusion(1/2)
In the corridor, there was a figure walking towards the outside at a leisurely pace.
As if aware that Bai Qingyi and others were looking towards him, the figure in the corridor suddenly raised his hands and made a gesture of applause.
Then, crisp applause also came out.
"Pah, pah!"
"Bai Qingyi, Jiang Kui, hehehehe..."
"You two really opened my eyes..."
The voice of the speaker was low, but it had a strange sharpness that made people's ears feel itchy...
At this time, even Lin Zhen turned around and looked towards the corridor behind him.
But all they saw was a man wearing a police uniform walking out of the dark corridor.
Under the light, Lin Zhen could clearly see the other person's face.
Although Lin Zhen had just been transferred here not long ago, he could still recognize at a glance that the person in front of him was one of his new colleagues.
It seems to be called Liu Xiang.
Lin Zhen was a little confused as to why the other party suddenly appeared here and acted as if he knew Bai Qingyi and Jiang Kui...
But what Liu Xiang said next solved Lin Zhen's doubts.
"We are all messengers from the underworld, you really make me feel ashamed..." As he said that, Liu Xiang looked towards Bai Qingyi.
Bai Qingyi's expression immediately turned extremely ugly.
The Liu Xiang in front of him was naturally no stranger to him.
As he said, they are all messengers from the underworld.
And Liu Xiang is actually just a pseudonym to hide his identity in the Yang Realm.
His real name is Liu Yan.
Strictly speaking, Liu Yan has long ceased to be a messenger from the underworld.
Or it can be said that he is a former messenger from the underworld who defected from the underworld.
Long before the balance between the Yin and Yang worlds was broken, there were some messengers from the Yin world who chose to defect because they did not want to continue to indulge in endless time, just to serve those souls.
Their idea is also very simple, just to escape from the various missions of the messengers from the underworld.
However, when these messengers from the underworld accepted this identity, they had already signed a contract with the powerful existence in the underworld.
Once they choose to defect, what awaits them will be very severe punishment.
Since ancient times, although the number of messengers from the underworld who have chosen to defect is not large, there are still more than a dozen.
Among them, only three have successfully hidden their identities and have not yet been found.
At this time, Liu Yan was one of them.
The reason why Liu Yan was able to successfully hide and avoid the pursuit of the underworld was because he, like Bai Qingyi, retained a physical body.
In this way, as long as he seals all his power and walks in the Yang Realm, he will be almost no different from ordinary people.
Choosing to hide in the crowd of people in the Yang Realm, as long as he deliberately hides and stays away from the messengers in the Yin Realm, he will basically not be discovered.
Bai Qingyi understood that the reason why Liu Yan dared to show up at this time was precisely because the balance between the yin and yang realms had been broken.
Liu Yan was certain that the underworld had no spare power to target him, the defecting messenger from the underworld.
But why did he show up? Was he planning to come here to intercept Hu, kill everyone present, and then take Lin Zhen back to the underworld?
This is understandable. If Lin Zhen is really the source of the destruction of the balance between Yin and Yang, getting rid of him will be equivalent to maintaining the balance between Yin and Yang.
Even if Liu Yan is a defected messenger from the underworld, it can still be regarded as a great achievement.
However, Bai Qingyi didn't think Liu Yan could crush him with his strength.
Bai Qingyi stared at Liu Yan coldly and said, "Liu Yan, if I remember correctly, you are no longer the messenger of the underworld..."
At this time, Bai Qingyi noticed something strange.
If Liu Yan wanted to "cut off Hu", then he could always hide in the dark, wait for him to fight Chen Xing and Jiang Kui, and then suddenly take action.
Although Bai Qingyi is not afraid of Liu Yan, he has to admit that Liu Yan, who has the same physical body as himself, may not be inferior to him in terms of combat ability.
As for his own side, after successive battles with Chen Xing Jiangkui, his strength will inevitably weaken.
If Liu Yan takes action at this time, the success rate will obviously be much higher.
The corners of Liu Yan's mouth raised slightly, revealing a smile of unknown meaning.
"Oh, by the way... If you hadn't reminded me of this, I would have forgotten it. I have already broken away from that damn identity..."
As he spoke, Liu Yan glanced at Lin Zhen.
"My new colleague is so in demand...how could I let him be taken away by you?"
Lin Zhen frowned when he heard Liu Yan's words.
From the conversation between Liu Yan and Bai Qingyi, Lin Zhen roughly analyzed the identity of the other party, who should also be a messenger from the underworld.
In other words, he was a messenger from the underworld in the past.
But now, for some unknown reason, he has given up his identity as the messenger of the underworld.
Related speculations immediately emerged in Lin Zhen's mind.
If a messenger from the underworld chooses to give up his identity, he will inevitably be hunted by the underworld.
After all, the power given to them by the underworld comes at a price.
Therefore, Lin Zhen could almost conclude that the purpose of his new colleague Liu Xiang, or Liu Yan as Bai Qingyi called him, was definitely different from Bai Qingyi and Jiang Kui.
But Lin Zhen didn't believe what Liu Yan just said.
It is impossible for him to choose to reveal his long-hidden identity in order to protect his new colleague.
Hearing Liu Yan's words, Bai Qingyi's expression turned cold: "Liu Yan, you have to think clearly. There seems to be no holiday between you and me. If you leave now, I can pretend that I have never met you..."
At this time, Liu Yan had already taken steps and walked past Lin Zhen.
The corner of his eye met Lin Zhen's gaze, and the corner of his mouth was slightly raised, still with that weird smile of unknown meaning on his face.
Liu Yan looked at Bai Qingyi and said with a smile: "You don't have to pretend that you haven't seen me before, because I won't give you a chance to speak..."
Before he finished speaking, Liu Yan held his right hand in the air.
The dark Yin Qi suddenly formed a small vortex outside his hand!
A simple double-edged straight sword as short as a forearm suddenly appeared in Liu Yan's hand.
Seeing Liu Yan reveal his weapon, Bai Qingyi immediately became vigilant.
Just as Bai Qingyi put his right hand on the hilt of the sword, Liu Yan moved.
His speed was so fast that ordinary people could not catch it with the naked eye. He almost turned into a black shadow and arrived in front of Bai Qingyi in an instant.
Bai Qingyi's reaction was also very quick. When Liu Yan drew his sword, he also unsheathed it.
The swords in their hands collided in front of them, creating a series of dazzling sparks!
The next moment, Bai Qingyi staggered back, with a wound on his shoulder.
Liu Yan suddenly turned around and struck out with his sword again, directly at Bai Qingyi's throat, giving Bai Qingyi no chance to sheath the sword and accumulate energy.
In desperation, Bai Qingyi had no choice but to block with his sword, and tried to retreat to distance himself from Liu Yan.
I don't know if Liu Yan already knew Bai Qingyi's fighting strategy, or if he had been secretly observing when Bai Qingyi and Chen Xing fought just now.
In short, at this time Liu Yan acted as if he had already defeated Bai Qingyi, pressing forward step by step without giving Bai Qingyi a chance to sheath his sword.
Liu Yan's attack was fierce and extremely fast, making Bai Qingyi's defense very awkward with every strike.
After just a few moves, Bai Qingyi had three or four more wounds on his body.
Although Yin Qi has been mobilized to repair the wounds, the wounds on his body continue to increase.
Finally, Bai Qingyi seized an opportunity and used his long sword to fend off Liu Yan's sword. At the same time, he held the handle of the short sword with his left hand and unsheathed the sword like lightning!
The cold light shines and goes straight to Liu Yan's throat!
However, Liu Yan seemed to have anticipated Bai Qingyi's move. The sword that had just been deflected suddenly struck back at an extremely tricky angle.
There was a loud noise, the swords collided, and the energy exploded instantly!
Liu Yan's figure flew into the air and stabbed Bai Qingyi's throat with his sword!
Bai Qingyi retreated and raised his short sword to block.
However, since the dagger was shorter than Liu Yan's sword, although Liu Yan's sword failed to hit Bai Qingyi's throat, it hit Bai Qingyi's left shoulder.
Bai Qingyi's shoulder was immediately torn and bloody.
Bai Qingyi endured the pain and raised the sword with her right hand, but Liu Yan easily dodged it.
After several fights, Liu Yan didn't have any injuries on his body, and he always smiled and was at ease.
