Starting with helping Zhao Kai ascend the throne in the snow

As soon as Shen Qing finished speaking, Huang Qing and the others' eyes flickered. They all keenly sensed the urgency in Shen Qing's words and guessed that Shen Qing wanted to finish the battle quickly. However, due to their identities, they could not ask and could only suppress their curiosity.

After Lucci changed his fighting style, the old swordsman and Han Shengxuan also personally joined the fray, and the four of them began to surround and attack Lucci. However, relying on his strange Marine Six Styles, Lucci was still able to escape repeatedly even when surrounded and blocked by the group.

"Shen Lang, what's wrong?" Xuan Yuan Qingfeng noticed Shen Qing's anxious state of mind and looked worried.

Zhao Kai looked over when he heard the sound. When he saw Shen Qing's tired expression, he wanted to say something, but Shen Qing stopped him with a gesture.

Shen Qing glanced at Xuan Yuan Qingfeng, then at Zhao Kai, and instead of hiding anything, said, "Time is running out. I can't hold on much longer. Once I fall into a deep sleep, the Black Ship will immediately send Lucci back to the pirate world. At that time, Lucci will be freed, and over there..." Shen Qing stopped there, but both of them understood what he meant. Once Lucci was freed, Shen Qing's secret would be exposed, and a bloody storm would break out on the other side.

"Brother Shen, what should we do?" Zhao Kai asked.

Upon hearing this, Shen Qing looked at Lu Qi without hesitation, his eyes filled with murderous intent, and said, "Leave him here."

However, it's not easy to keep Lucci here. Right now, he's constantly using Shave to move around at high speed, making it impossible to pinpoint his location, let alone deal with him.

"Damn it, if only we could restrict his movement, then we could deal with him." Zhao Kai said with resentment as he looked at Lu Qi, who was constantly changing positions.

But just then, Zhao Kai suddenly noticed Shen Qing's struggling expression and asked in confusion, "Brother Shen, why do I feel like you're hesitating about something?"

Shen Qing nodded upon hearing this, paused for a moment, and said, "I actually have a way to restrict his movement, but..." Shen Qing sighed as he spoke.

"But what?" Zhao Kai asked hurriedly.

"It will only result in the needless sacrifice of countless lives," Shen Qing said in a heavy tone. He was not a cruel and ruthless person, especially towards his own people. Restricting Lucci's high-speed movement was actually quite easy to solve: use military formations to compress Lucci's range of movement, and have Han Shengxuan cooperate from the side. As long as Lucci's space for movement is reduced, he will bump into people once he uses Shave. In this way, as long as Han Shengxuan can seize the opportunity, he can use the red thread to entangle Lucci.

If Lucci is tied down, and if the old swordsman can seize the opportunity to severely injure him, then Lucci will only face certain death when facing Wen Hua and the others.

However, once the military formation is deployed, Lu Qi will unleash a massacre once he senses the situation is dire, resulting in countless deaths and injuries, which is something Shen Qing does not want to see. Soldiers are flesh-and-blood human beings, not cold statistics; each one carries the hopes of a family, and this burden is something Shen Qing dares not face.

"Brother Shen, you've always been helping me, now it's finally my turn to help you. I'll give the order." Zhao Kai patted Shen Qing on the shoulder, then shouted towards the distance, "Yang Long, listen to my command! I order you to change your formation and reduce the leopard demon's range of movement. Can you do it?" Friends should help each other. As the King of Yue, Zhao Kai had always received help from Shen Qing, but he also wanted to find an opportunity to do something for Shen Qing. Now that such an opportunity had come up, he naturally wouldn't hesitate to step up.

Upon hearing Zhao Kai's words, Shen Qing opened his mouth as if to stop him, but ultimately couldn't utter a word. He was caught in a dilemma, torn between Doflamingo and Hawkeye on one side, and the soldiers around him on the other.

"Your Highness, rest assured, Yang Long guarantees to complete the mission." Upon hearing Zhao Kai's words, Yang Long immediately shouted, then commanded his soldiers to change formation and surround Lu Qi from all sides.

As the army moved, the space around Lucci was immediately filled with soldiers. As the shields advanced towards the center, the space for Lucci to move became smaller and smaller. At the same time, the old sword god was close behind him, and Han Shengxuan's red thread was like a leech, making Lucci's situation even more precarious.

The next moment, just when Shen Qing thought Lu Qi would start a massacre of the surrounding soldiers, Lu Qi unexpectedly chose to use Moonwalk to leap into the air and jump out of the soldiers' encirclement.

Faced with Lucci's sudden action, Shen Qing's heart sank, but he also felt a sense of relief, thankful that the soldiers wouldn't have to endure Lucci's slaughter. However, this made Lucci even more difficult to deal with. While he could be restricted when moving on the ground, the soldiers would be useless once he took to the air.

"The monster flew up..."

"The monster can fly..."

Upon seeing Lucci running freely through the air using Moonwalk, the soldiers present were in an uproar, and even Wen Hua, Wu Liuding, Qi Jiajie, Huang Qing, and others were shocked.

It is well known that flight has been a dream of mankind since ancient times. Only a few top masters in the world can fly on swords. The fact that the leopard demon can fly makes everyone more convinced of his identity as a demon.

"Archers, fire!" As the commander of the army, Yang Long was also shocked by the fact that the monster could fly, but he recovered from the shock much faster than the other soldiers.

As Yang Long gave the order, hundreds of arrows were shot at Lucci. Facing the arrows coming from below, Lucci sneered disdainfully and immediately increased his hovering height, causing the arrows to miss their mark.

"Phew, it seems to be fate." Shen Qing looked at Lu Qi, who was suspended in mid-air, and sighed slightly, having already given up on the idea of ​​keeping Lu Qi here.

All he wanted to do was wait until he had rested, then immediately go to the pirate world to report the news and try to help Doflamingo and Hawkeye escape the World Government's pursuit.

"Han Shengxuan, I'll lend you a hand. You must bring him down for me! Sword, come!" Just then, the old swordsman suddenly shouted, and a precious sword hovered beside Han Shengxuan.

Han Shengxuan was stunned for a moment upon seeing this, then understood and stepped onto the sword. The next second, the sword flew into the air under the old sword god's sword control technique, and flew rapidly towards the void where Lu Qi was.

Han Shengxuan stood firmly on the sword as if rooted to the ground, his hands outstretched, the three thousand red threads in his sleeves like red snakes about to capture their prey, eager to strike.

This sudden turn of events stunned everyone present. They hadn't expected the old swordsman to have such a move, and not only them, but even Lucci hadn't anticipated it. By the time he came to his senses, the old swordsman had already flown to his side, wielding his sword.

The next second, Han Shengxuan opened his arms without hesitation, and countless red threads, like a rain curtain, engulfed Lu Qi's figure, wrapping his whole body tightly like a mummy.

Caught off guard, Lu Qi got entangled in the silk threads, his legs were instantly bound together, and he lost all leverage, causing him to fall uncontrollably downwards and crash heavily to the ground.
