Please give me a chance to be a straight man

Gu Xuan was slightly taken aback when she heard Su Qingyang's words, but Shen Xu immediately reacted and protected her behind her.

Seeing this, the smile on Su Qingyang's face could not help but fade a bit, "Uncle Ling, you used to treat me like a family member, why haven't you seen me for many years, and now you are so wary of me?"

Shen Xu sighed, and explained, "I'm not the real Ling Yan, you know that."

"If you don't even believe what you say, do you think I will?"

Gu Xuan also heard the meaning of Su Qingyang's words at this time, and turned to look at Shen Xu, "You guys knew each other before?"

Shen Xu nodded, "I know him. But his appearance is very different from what I remember, and I only realized his identity not long ago."

"Since Qingyang calls you uncle, does that mean he is also a demon cultivator?"

Shen Xu nodded, "He is Lan Xuan, the son of the former demon master, and also the young master of all demon cultivators."

Gu Xuan couldn't believe it after hearing this. "I have known Qingyang since I was seven years old. How could he be a demon?" After finishing speaking, Gu Xuan looked at Su Qingyang and asked with a trembling voice, "Qingyang, what he said is not true, is it?"

At this time, Su Qingyang's smile was completely restrained, and she looked at Gu Xuan with a serious expression, "If it's true, what would you do?"

Gu Xuan couldn't answer for a while. Although she had deep feelings for Su Qingyang, she couldn't abandon the whole righteous way and those innocent people who were harmed for a cruel demon cultivator.

With a decision in her heart, Gu Xuan met Su Qingyang's gaze, and replied word by word, "I will stop you."

"Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

Gu Xuan suddenly laughed, "There's nothing terrible about death. But if you can really attack me, it will be a pleasure for me, so that I won't remember you at all, and I won't leave you in order to choose the right path. Guilty."

After hearing Gu Xuan's words, Su Qingyang's face immediately became gloomy, and then his spiritual power suddenly surged.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Shen Xu wanted Gu Xuan to leave first, but before he could speak, a teleportation circle appeared under the two of them.

Seeing this, Su Qingyang's expression became even more ugly, and he immediately flew over to stop Shen Xu and Gu Xuan.But in the end, only a shadow of them was caught.

Su Qingyang was furious, and slapped the stone wall next to him with his palm, and the stone wall suddenly turned into powder.

At this time, a black-clothed demon cultivator suddenly appeared and reported to Su Qingyang about the capture of the four major sects. "How's it going?"

"Young Master Bing, the situation is not going well. These righteous ways seem to have been prepared for a long time, and the sect's defensive circle has been strengthened. The guardian and all the brothers can't attack. So the guardian asked me to ask you, whether to open the life and death compass?"

"open."

"Then what if you accidentally hurt the young lady after turning on the compass of life and death?"

"It doesn't matter, anyone who dares to hinder me from destroying the Righteous Dao Xianmen will only have a dead end."

Shen Xu and Gu Xuan were teleported to the foot of a mountain not far from Tianxuanzong.As soon as they landed on their feet, they saw Wen Ran covered in blood.

Shen Xu hurriedly helped him up, "How is the situation now, where is Jiang Xun, is he okay?!"

"He is defending against the demon cultivator's attack with Ye Chen and other Tianxuanzong disciples, so he should be fine for the time being."

Shen Xu heaved a sigh of relief.Then he looked at Wen Ran, "How is your injury?"

Seeing that Shen Xu was only asking about his injury at this moment, Wen Ran couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Thanks for your concern, my injury is serious but it's all skin trauma, and I can bear it."

"That's good. Let's go to Jiang Xun and the others now when your injury recovers."

Wen Ran shook his head, "I'm afraid not."

Shen Xu frowned, "Why?"

Wen Ran pointed to the top of the mountain where Tianxuanzong was located. At this time, a huge golden compass was hovering above the sky above the mountain.Wherever the light from the compass touched, there were screams.

"Liuyun opened the compass of life and death, and the disciples of various sects suffered heavy casualties. The three of us are not in our prime now. If we want to pass through the barrier of the compass of life and death and go to the Tianxuanzong to save people, I am afraid that we will die. We have to think of other ways."

Shen Xu felt that what Wen Ran said made sense, so the three of them first found a cave to recuperate, and made plans after their respective bodies recovered.

While Shen Xu was waiting for his spiritual power to recover, his brain kept thinking about all the information about the compass of life and death, and found that although the compass of life and death was destructive and lethal, it was not completely without drawbacks.It's just that whether Su Qingyang has discovered and improved this shortcoming, Shen Xu doesn't know.

But he decided to give it a try.

So Shen Xu told Wen Ran and Gu Xuan of his thoughts, "The operation time and power of the compass of life and death are related to the number of sacrificed people and the strength of their souls. Demon Xiu has obviously planned it for a long time, so they will definitely try to put life and death together." The power of the compass is maximized. Then relatively, there is a disadvantage that may not be avoided."

Wen Ran's eyes lit up as if he saw hope when he heard this, so he couldn't help approaching Shen Xu and asked, "What's the disadvantage?"

"It is that the life-death compass has certain restrictions on the release of spiritual power when it is running. In other words, the greater the strength of the spiritual power it releases, the shorter the time it will run."

"You mean that the Compass of Life and Death may stop by itself?"

Shen Xu nodded, "The premise is that Su Qingyang does not improve this shortcoming, then the compass of life and death should automatically stop today. But even so, we only have one hour at most. The three of us will go to Xuanzong within this period of time. , Otherwise, when the compass of life and death is turned on again, there is really no chance."

Wen Ran was taken aback when Shen Xu suddenly mentioned Su Qingyang, and then looked at Gu Xuan in shock, "Gu Xuan, could it be..."

Gu Xuan nodded with difficulty, "Everything was planned by Su Qingyang, we have been deceived by him all these years."

Wen Ran was a little confused for a moment.Shen Xu patted him on the shoulder, "Brother hold on, I will rely on you next."

After the three of them have adjusted their status, the time is almost here.

So Shen Xu and the others set off for Tianxuanzong.

The current situation of Tianxuanzong is similar to what Shen Xu expected. The power of the compass of life and death has been greatly weakened. Later, they just need to wait for it to automatically close, and the three of them can take advantage of this gap to go up the mountain.

But at this moment, Tianxuanzong suddenly came down with a group of demon cultivators. It seemed that there were about twenty people and their cultivation bases were not low.

Shen Xu was not surprised to see this, Su Qingyang is not a fool and the head of Wan Jianshan is there to help, the chance of not discovering the disadvantages of the life and death compass is very low, but right now he only sent the magic cultivator to arrest people That is to say, he knew that the compass of life and death would be closed, but he didn't think of a solution.

Wen Ran looked at the demon cultivators in front of him and asked Shen Xu, "What should we do now?"

"What else can I do? Naturally, I forced my way."

Gu Xuan frowned when she heard this, "There are quite a few of them. Even though our cultivation base is higher than theirs, we may not be able to eliminate them all for a while. If they call people to support us, it may be very difficult to deal with."

Shen Xu suddenly laughed at this moment, "I'm afraid you have forgotten that I am good at refining magical weapons, right?"

After finishing speaking, Shen Xu took out a lot of 'Tiger Talismans' from his bosom.

"Among these instruments are magic circles that I personally drew. As long as spiritual power is injected into them, the magic circles will work, and then these spiritual powers will transform into villains, and these villains are enough to block Jindan cultivators."

Wen Ran's eyes lit up when she heard the words, but Gu Xuan asked, "Is it true that such a powerful magic weapon only needs to be injected with spiritual power? There is no other price?"

Shen Xu froze for a moment, then replied, "No."

Wen Ran looked at Shen Xu, "Don't hide anything from us. If you make a mistake, Jiang Xun won't spare me."

Shen Xu didn't answer, and raised his hand to gradually inject spiritual power into each 'Tiger Talisman'.And with the increase of spiritual power, the formation in the 'Tiger Talisman' also began to operate.

Although the demon cultivators in front of Shen Xu and the others received Su Qingyang's order to monitor the situation at the foot of the mountain, because they were all immersed in the joy of the setback, they did not notice the movement on Shen Xu's side for the time being.

Shen Xu took this opportunity to speed up the operation of the magic circle, and saw villains transformed from spiritual power emerge one by one in the magic circle, and when the great work was about to be completed, the compass of life and death suddenly stopped.

The demon cultivators immediately raised their vigilance.The leader, Moxiu in black, ordered his subordinates to search the surroundings with all their spiritual senses, and Shen Xu and the others were about to be discovered.

Seeing this, Shen Xu made a gesture to Wen Ran and Gu Xuan to prepare to attack, and then pinched the magic formula with his hands, and dozens of villains transformed from spiritual power immediately flew towards the demon cultivators.

All the demon cultivators were originally full of energy, and when they saw someone sneaking up, they immediately rushed forward without even thinking about it.

These demon cultivators think highly of themselves, so they don't pay attention to these villains at all.But after the fight, the demon cultivators were all taken aback. These villains looked inconspicuous, but they didn't expect to have Jindan cultivation bases!

All the demon cultivators were entangled by villains, and they had no time to care about other things for a while.

Seeing that the current situation was not good, the black-clothed demon cultivator was about to send a message to Su Qingyang when a long sword was suddenly placed around his neck, and then Shen Xu's smiling face appeared in front of him.

"It's not okay to want to tip off the news."

The black-clothed demon cultivator looked at Shen Xu and couldn't help but his legs trembled, "My lord, please spare my life."

"It's okay to forgive you, but you have to tell me the current situation."

The black-clothed demon cultivator glanced at the other demon cultivators from the corner of his eye, and saw that they had been subdued by Gu Xuan and Wen Ran and tied up, so he informed the situation, "Now the four major sects except Tianxuanzong and the other three sects are It has been captured, and as long as Tianxuanzong is dealt with right now, the orthodox monks will have no chance of turning over. So..."

The black-clothed demon cultivator wanted to continue talking, but was knocked unconscious by Shen Xu's palm.

Shen Xu put away his sword, turned around and said to Gu Xuan and Wen Ran, "Let's go up the mountain."

Jiang Xun and the others were still in a stalemate with Moxiu and the others at this time, Liu Yun couldn't help becoming anxious when he couldn't attack for a long time, and turned his head to ask Su Qingyang on the side if he wanted to mobilize some more troops to attack the mountain.

Su Qingyang didn't answer him, but instead asked, "Did the brother sent to investigate the situation at the foot of the mountain respond?"

Liu Yun was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head, "Not yet."

Su Qingyang's expression turned serious, "Tell all the disciples on the mountain to be vigilant, Ling Yan and the others may have gone up the mountain, be careful of being attacked."

After speaking, Su Qingyang drew his sword and went straight to Jiang Xun.

Just as Jiang Xun repelled a few demon cultivators, he turned his head and asked Ye Chen who was beside him, "Does Wen Ran have any news?"

Ye Chen shook his head.

Seeing this, Jiang Xun couldn't help but become ugly.

Ye Chen was about to comfort him, when suddenly he felt a killing intent coming from behind, Jiang Xun immediately pushed him away with a palm, and then swung his sword to collide with the oncoming cyan sword light.

Ye Chen didn't expect that the person who came was Su Qingyang, and was surprised for a while.

Su Qingyang ignored Ye Chen and turned to look at Jiang Xun, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "You don't seem to be surprised by my appearance. But think about it, you have always been sharp, and it's not surprising that you found my flaws."

Jiang Xun was not in the mood to take up Su Qingyang's words, and asked directly, "What did you do to Shen Xu and Gu Xuan?"

"One is my uncle and the other is my Taoist partner. What can I do? Originally, I planned to lock them up to avoid this chaos, but the two insisted on opposing me. So, naturally I..."

Then Su Qingyang made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Jiang Xun's expression sank immediately, and he came forward with a sword.In the blink of an eye, he stabbed Su Qingyang dozens of times.

Su Qingyang was secretly startled while dodging. He didn't expect that after such a long period of fierce fighting, Jiang Xun still had such abundant spiritual power.

But Su Qingyang didn't panic, because he usually hides his strength, in fact, his strength is no less than Jiang Xun's or even two points higher.

Seeing that Su Qingyang faced Jiang Xun's offensive not in a hurry but with ease, Ye Chen immediately realized that Su Qingyang had been pretending all along, and he was very anxious.He wanted to go over to help, but immediately a few demon cultivators came to pester him.Ye Chen wanted other disciples to help Jiang Xun, but found that they were all lacking in skills, even Qi Xiu and Ye Qingzhou were no exception.

Just when Jiang Xun was gradually at a disadvantage, the demon cultivators who had been blocking the gate of Tianxuanzong suddenly became confused, and then a group of people flashed in front of Jiang Xun.

Jiang Xun looked at Shen Xu's back and was stunned for a moment.

Shen Xu didn't see Jiang Xun's expression at this time, but asked softly, "How are you?" He waited for a while and saw that Jiang Xun didn't answer him, and looked back at Jiang Xun suspiciously.

Only then did Jiang Xun reply, "I'm fine."

Su Qingyang watched Shen Xu and Jiang Xun look at each other, and couldn't help but said with a gloomy expression, "Sure enough, I didn't stop you."

"The people you sent down the mountain were immersed in the joy of defeating the orthodox sect, so they relaxed their vigilance, and we took advantage of the loophole."

Su Qingyang's complexion did not improve because of Shen Xu's explanation, but became even uglier.

Seeing this, Shen Xu suddenly remembered Lan Xuan's appearance when he was a child for some reason, so he sighed and tried to persuade Su Qingyang to change his ways.

At this moment, Su Qingyang suddenly laughed, "Ling Yan, don't you naively think that just a few of you can reverse the situation in front of you?"

"Who said there are only a few of us? I even found a helper."

Su Qingyang frowned when he heard the words, and suddenly heard the screams of all the demon cultivators.So he quickly looked around, and found that at some point, dozens of puppet corpses appeared around him.These puppet corpses all have the cultivation level of the golden core stage, and they don't feel pain and they rush to bite the demon cultivator when they see it. The demon cultivator with a high cultivation level can still resist for a while, and the low cultivation level will die instantly after being injured.

Seeing that the situation was about to change, Su Qingyang looked at Shen Xu with a sullen face, "I didn't expect you to be able to control a puppet."

"I have received the inheritance of the ghost venerable, so it is not surprising that I can control puppet corpses?"

Su Qingyang didn't speak when he heard the words, Shen Xu thought he was struggling with whether to give up attacking Tianxuanzong, so he was not in a hurry.Unexpectedly, the spiritual power in Su Qingyang's body suddenly surged, and then a magic circle suddenly appeared under his feet, and as the magic circle turned, a black long sword gradually emerged from it.

"I didn't intend to use the Spirit Devouring Sword, but Ling Yan, you have repeatedly sabotaged my plan. I really can't keep you."

After Su Qingyang finished speaking, he came to Shen Xu in an instant, and swung his sword straight to his vitals.

Shen Xu didn't expect him to be so fast, and immediately dodged sideways, but before he had time, Su Qingyang cut his arm with a sword.And the injured arm immediately lost all feeling and hung down limply.At the same time, Shen Xu also felt that part of the spiritual power in his body was taken away, so his expression suddenly became ugly.

Jiang Xun naturally also noticed Shen Xu's situation, so he took a few steps forward to protect him behind him, preparing to face Su Qingyang by himself.

Shen Xu raised his hand and grabbed Jiang Xun's sleeve, "Let's go together, with Su Qingyang's Soul Eater sword in hand, you are no match for him."

Jiang Xun looked at Shen Xu's injured arm worriedly.Shen Xu comforted, "Small injuries are fine."

Su Qingyang was not in the mood at all and had no time to watch Shen Xu make them flirt, so he immediately came over with a sword.

Shen Xu and Jiang Xun greeted Su Qingyang's sword moves from left to right, and after dozens of moves, the two not only did not lose the wind, but even fought more and more bravely.

Su Qingyang was startled secretly, and suddenly saw strange runes appear on the faces of Shen Xu and Jiang Xun.It was only at this time that Su Qingyang realized that Shen Xu and Jiang Xun had a life and death contract, and they could share their cultivation base, spiritual power and life. No wonder Jiang Xun, who should have been exhausted in spiritual power, still had spiritual power to fight him.

With the combined efforts of Shen Xu and Jiang Xun, Su Qingyang finally began to show signs of defeat.The three of them went through more than a dozen moves, Shen Xu found a mistake in Su Qingyang, and lifted the Soul Devouring Sword flying with one sword, and then Jiang Xun immediately slapped Su Qingyang's chest with his palm.

Su Qingyang immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and flew several feet away.

Jiang Xun walked up to Su Qingyang, pointing his sword at his throat, "Where are the other sect leaders and disciples locked up?"

Su Qingyang laughed, "I'll tell you where they are, will you let me go?"

"I'll consider leaving you a whole body."

Su Qingyang laughed loudly, "Do you really think that you guys turned defeat into victory?! Naive!"

Then Su Qingyang suddenly started to burn his Nascent Soul, and then took out a talisman from his bosom and threw it into the sky.The talisman suddenly became golden, and at the same time, the closed compass of life and death hovering above Tianxuanzong unexpectedly opened again.

This time the Compass of Life and Death did not release the barrier to destroy the surrounding creatures, but began to violently absorb the spiritual power in the air.

A group of monks and demon cultivators who were still fighting at first felt the spiritual power in their bodies disappear rapidly at this time.

Shen Xu looked at Su Qingyang with a solemn expression, "What did you do to the compass of life and death?"

"It's nothing, just let it explode. When the life and death compass absorbs the spiritual power completely, all the sects and towns in the Tianxuanzong area will be reduced to ashes in an instant."

Hearing what Su Qingyang said, Wen Ran rushed over immediately, grabbed his collar and said angrily, "Su Qingyang, are you crazy, so that everyone will die?!"

Su Qingyang sneered, "I just want to destroy all of you in the righteous way, so what does the life and death of other people have to do with me?"

Wen Ran was so angry that he immediately wanted to kill Su Qingyang with a sword.

Seeing that the compass of life and death was about to explode, Shen Xu suddenly said to everyone, "I thought of a way to prevent the compass of life and death from exploding."

Everyone was surprised, "What way?"

"Sacrifice my soul."

Everyone fell silent when they heard this, only Jiang Xun said, "I won't allow you to do this."

"But this is the only way. My soul is imprinted on the key of the compass of life and death, and only by sacrificing my soul can it be closed. And this thing was created by me, and I have the responsibility to solve it. as a result of."

Jiang Xun still didn't speak.

Shen Xu sighed, walked slowly to Jiang Xun and whispered something in his ear.Jiang Xun was taken aback when he heard this, and just about to speak, he was slapped unconscious by Shen Xu's palm.

Shen Xu handed Jiang Xun to Wen Ran, and said, "Jiang Xun will be handed over to you."

Wen Ran hugged Jiang Xun and looked at Shen Xu, "Have you really decided?"

Shen Xu nodded.Then he walked up to Su Qingyang and pulled him up.

Su Qingyang stared at him, "What are you doing, let me go!"

"Don't you want to die, you just happen to be with me. Brother and Su Jin have been waiting for us for so many years, it's time to reunite with them."

Su Qingyang was taken aback when he heard the words, and didn't resist anymore.

After finishing speaking, Shen Xu turned his head to Wen Ran and Ye Chen and said, "Everyone, let's meet by fate."

Then he and Su Qingyang turned into two silver lights and flew towards the compass of life and death.

And the compass of life and death, which was about to explode, immediately stopped because of Shen Xu's entry.Afterwards, with a clicking sound, the life and death compass suddenly broke from the middle, and then began to turn into powder and dissipate in the air.

Seeing this, all the devil cultivators knew that they had no chance of winning, so they began to surrender one after another.Wen Ran learned about the places where the disciples of other sects were imprisoned from the mouths of several demon cultivators, so he quickly brought people to rescue them, but luckily they arrived in time and they were all unharmed.

Then the disciples of the four major sects launched a full-scale counterattack, and Liu Yun led the rest of the magic cultivators to retreat steadily.In the end, Liu Yun blew himself up and died.

The second battle between good and evil finally came to an end.

After the days returned to peace, Qi Xiu discussed with the other three heads that Jiang Xun should succeed him as the new head and immortal head of Tianxuanzong.

None of the three heads had any objections, so they notified the matter to all sects, large and small.

The ceremony for Jiang Xun to take over as the head of the fairy was very lively, but he himself didn't look happy, but despite this, the ceremony went smoothly.

Shen Xu was floating in the sky at this time, he didn't know how long he had been in this wandering state, anyway, he only remembered that he became like this after rushing into the compass of life and death with Su Qingyang.He watched the wandering souls in front of him walking towards a light gate, so he also followed.

There is a beautiful young lady next to the light gate, she is holding a small notebook to record something at the moment.

When it was Shen Xu's turn, the young lady asked, "Name?"

"Shen Xu or Ling Yan."

"What system is bound?"

"Cannon fodder exclusive system."

The young lady glanced at Shen Xu in surprise, and then smiled and said, "Congratulations to the host, you have full marks in both the completion of the plot and the satisfaction of the protagonist in "The Chaos of Immortals and Demons", so our system will give you a lottery." Opportunity."

Then the young lady took out a cardboard box for lottery from nowhere and handed it to Shen Xu.

Shen Xu reached in and took out a note and handed it to the young lady.

The young lady looked at it and said with a smile, "Congratulations to the host for getting the reward of 'Rebirth'. I wonder if you want to honor the reward?"

"exchange."

"Then do you choose to continue using the identity of 'Shen Xu'?"

"Yes."

"Okay, we will choose the system to rebind your identity."

Then Shen Xu heard the familiar electronic voice, "Shen Xu's identity is being activated in "The Rebellion of Immortals and Demons..."

"Activation is successful, I wish you a happy life."

Then Shen Xu felt that he was falling from a high altitude to the ground quickly. He tried to stimulate his spiritual power, but only then found that there was no spiritual power in his body!

Just when Shen Xu thought he was going to fall to his death, he suddenly fell into someone's arms.

Shen Xu was very familiar with the owner of this embrace, so he raised his head and greeted this person with a smile, "Long time no see, Jiang Xun."
