The connection between the three heroes Zed, Shen, and Jhin is very complicated.

And the person who cannot be avoided in the middle is Master Kushuo.

Master Kushuo is the former leader of the Order of the Balance, the last generation of Twilight Eyes, and also the father of Shen and the master of Zed.

Zed was once just a errand boy in the Order of the Balance. He was spotted by Master Kushuo and accepted as his apprentice. Zed did not disappoint his expectations. He trained hard and quickly became one of the strongest in the sect.

Before Noxus invaded Ionia, a terrifying murderer appeared in this land. Not only did he roam around and commit crimes, but every time he killed someone, he would arrange their bodies into the shape of a lotus.

When Master Kushuo learned about it, he determined that this was no longer something that humans could do, and it must be the means of the devil, so he took Zed and Shen to pursue the murderer.

It took them several years to catch Jhin, known as the Golden Demon, with a trap.

But surprisingly, the Golden Demon was not the incarnation of the devil as imagined, he was just an ordinary stage manager in a touring troupe.

Zed wanted to kill him, but Master Kushuo handed Jhin to the Presidium Court on the grounds that the Order of the Balance would not interfere in human disputes, and he was only imprisoned.

Later, when Noxus invaded, Zed went to the battlefield to resist the army, and many members of the Order of the Balance wanted to follow him.

In order to prevent the Order of the Balance from losing too many people and thus being unable to maintain the balance between the spiritual realm and reality, he teamed up with Master Kushuo to perform a play.

Zed killed Master Kushuo, so that no one from the Order of the Balance would join his Shadow Stream in the future.

But Master Kushuo was secretly taken away by him and has been hiding in the Shadow Stream.

With the end of the large-scale war, according to Zed's plan, the Shadow Stream should guard Ionia in secret and not participate in the dispute over power.

But Master Kushuo has changed.

His ambition swelled with the growth of the Shadow Cult, and he attempted to control Ionia, and released Jhin, and the two reached a secret cooperation.

20 According to Zed, Jhin has recently left Ionia and went to Piltover.

The purpose is to prevent Piltover from selling firearms and Hextech weapons to the Ionian resistance, so that the role of the Shadow Cult can be highlighted.

Shen's apprentice Akali also went to Piltover to stop Jhin's conspiracy, and Zed could no longer tolerate Master Kushuo's behavior and wanted to make an end.

"My master and I both used a prop called Shadow Tears to gain the ability to control shadows."

"But the remaining Shadow Tears are in the hands of the master, and no one knows how much he has fused. If we act rashly, I'm afraid he will escape."

This is also the reason why Zed asked Wayne for help.

Wayne knows more about the power of shadow than him, and can freeze his shadow, so he must be able to stop Master Kushuo.

What Jie pursues is a fatal blow, leaving no trouble behind.

"This is another price." Wayne said seriously, "You haven't done anything for me yet, and I will help you kill your master. There is no such reason in the world."

"What I, Lawrence, hate most is people who take advantage of me for free, and those who don't let me take advantage of them for free."

"......."

Zed was silent again.

Are all the strong people so weird?

He actually described the important matter of Ionia's future peace as taking advantage of others for free.

Can we say it in a more advanced way.

"I don't seem to have anything you like." Zed said in a deep voice: "If there is, please take it."

"You don't have it, but your apprentice does." Wayne raised his eyebrows, "Isn't there a darkin sealed in Kayn's body? I need some of the darkin's energy. Can you decide on this?"

"No problem." Zed agreed decisively.

Zed had always been worried that the Darkin in Kayn's body would destroy his sanity. Wayne's request was also a good thing for him, as it would weaken the power of the Darkin.

He wished that Wayne would just get rid of the Darkin.

After the two reached an agreement, they did not delay and went directly to the Shadow Cult's base.

The Shadow Cult's base was in the north of Navoli Province, which was only a few hundred kilometers away from the Balance Cult.

If Zed were to travel alone, it might take one to two days to get there.

But Wayne stuffed him directly into his shadow, then found the right direction and flew at high speed, and only released him when he was about to arrive.

After coming out, Zed was dizzy and it took him half a day to find the right direction.

In the shadow space, he rolled back and forth like a ball, turning the world upside down and almost vomiting.

It's hard not to suspect that this was Wayne's revenge.

But Jie didn't dare to say anything more, so he could only lead the way with his head down.

The base of the Shadow Sect is in a valley in the north of Navoli, and the entrance is a hidden cave.

Before the two of them got close, several guards in night clothes came out of the cave. When they saw Jie, they were stunned for a moment, and then quickly knelt on one knee.

"My lord!"

Jie nodded coldly, "Retreat."

"Yes." Several guards nodded hurriedly, and several takeoffs and landings quickly left the area.

Wayne looked at Jie with a strange look, which made him feel uncomfortable.

"Is there anything wrong?" Jie couldn't help asking.

Wayne complained: "No? Don't you feel anything at all?"

"Whose good man wears night clothes in broad daylight? Do you want to attract more attention?"

Jie was stunned.

It seems to be the case.

Perhaps because of his influence, many people in the Shadow Cult like to wear black tights inside and armor outside.

It's okay at night, but during the day...

The inside of the visor cannot be seen,Zed's old face rarely turned red, "I will tell them to pay attention."

Wayne waved his hand, "Forget it, it's none of my business, just a few words, go see your master."

Zed nodded and led the way.

The whole mountain seemed to be hollowed out by the Shadow Cult, and the passages inside were connected in all directions, like a maze.

The two met many members of the Shadow Cult on the way. Although they were very respectful when facing Zed, Wayne could sense their malice, and so did Zed, becoming more and more silent.

He couldn't help but question himself in his heart.

Is power really so charming?

Why did the warriors who had followed him through life and death to resist Noxus become so unfamiliar?

Just because of Master Kushuo's promise and the temptation of money, they forgot that they gathered together to protect Ionia.

He didn't hate these people for betraying him, but he hated how many ordinary civilians they would harm in the future for their own selfish desires.

“......”

Coming to a heavy stone door, Jie had adjusted his mentality, his heart was as cold as iron, and he no longer hesitated.

He made a special hand seal, and the stone door slowly opened.

After the two entered, the candles in the candlesticks were automatically lit. Under the dim candlelight, a hunched figure appeared on the highest throne.

It was a thin old man with white hair and beard, looking extremely old. There were strange lines on his naked upper body, which made people shudder.

The drooping eyelids were slightly raised, and the old man, that is, Master Kushuo, looked at Wayne with some doubts, and then looked at Jie.

"Jie, this guest is..."

Jie bowed and clasped his fists, "Master, this is Master Lawrence." (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

"Lawrence?" Kushuo suddenly realized and forced a kind smile, "It turns out to be you, Sir Lawrence, your understanding of the way of balance is refreshing to me."

"Jie, is there anything Sir Lawrence needs to do with Shadow Stream?"

"No." Jie shook his head slightly and whispered, "Master Lawrence is just a witness today."

"Witness what?" Master Kushuo was slightly startled.

"Of course, I am going to see you off."

Jie's words did not contain any emotion, "Master, you have lived long enough, what's the point of thinking about power? It's better to give the future to the young."

The smile shifted from Master Kushuo to Wayne's face.

"Zed, do you know what you are saying?"

"Have you forgotten that your achievements today are all my gift?"

"That's why I have endured until today." Zed took a step forward, and the impact blade was unsheathed with a clang, "You shouldn't release Kada Jin, and you shouldn't let the Shadow Stream become a tool to satisfy your desires!"

"You are wrong, Zed." Master Ku Shuo sneered, "The establishment of the Shadow Stream was originally my tool, and you... were just pushed to the forefront.puppet."

"Do you think I would agree to your ridiculous fake death plan?"

Zed did not get angry, and remained calm. "The wrong birth has the right result. I have no complaints about it, but I should have the final say on how Shadow Stream will go in the future!"

"Really?" Master Kushuo stood up with great effort, looking down at Zed and Wayne who were eating melons on the side.

"Speaking of which, you have saved me a lot of effort."[]

"You are right. Shadow Stream should indeed change its master. What do you think... Kayn? "

As soon as the voice fell, a young man with an evil smile on his face came out from behind the throne, carrying a huge sickle, and slowly walked towards Jie.

"Master... This is not my fault. It's really that this old man gave too much and was willing to hand over the entire Shadow to me..."

"Kayn..." Jie's mood was no longer as calm as before.

Kayn was the spy he sent to monitor Kushuo, but now it seems... He seems to have been turned against?

"You want to be the Lord of Shadow?" Jie forced himself to maintain a normal tone.

"Of course." Kayn's mouth curled into Nike, "You are my master, so I am the next Lord of Shadow, right? ”

Master Kushuo smiled again, enjoying the wonderful drama of the master and apprentice killing each other with interest.

As for Wayne on the side, he had long been ignored by him.

Just an ordinary person with a little fame, Zed may need his fame to whitewash his reputation of killing his master, but unfortunately, this flag will soon become his.

He can also use Lawrence's reputation to expand the influence of Shadow Stream.

However, the blade of the sickle did not swing at Zed, but was thrown back by Kayn who turned around, pointing directly at Master Kushuo's nose.

"Master, don't you think this old thing is ridiculous?"

"Just a title of Shadow Master, you want me to betray you?"

Zed was stunned, then laughed. 083 Kushuo was also stunned, then stupid.

"Kayn, you! ”

“Old man, I am just teasing you!” Kaiyin stopped pretending and looked at Ku with contempt, “Master rescued me from the dead, accepted me as his disciple, and taught me what loyalty is!”

“With those words of yours, you still want me to betray him?”

“You are really crazy.”

“Isn’t he just the Lord of Shadows? When Master gets old, I will be the one to take over. Why should I be your puppet?”

“You guy…” Jie laughed and scolded with relief. Just now, he really thought Kaiyin had betrayed him and was ready to fight.

“Master.” Kaiyin smiled and turned around, “Our own people have been sent out to perform tasks. What should we do with those traitors outside?”

“Kill! ”

As Jie finished speaking, he split into two shadows, and rushed towards Master Kushuo with his main body. When Kayn heard this brief reply,Answer, holding a sickle, the red back wall emitted blue light, and the ghostly figure rushed out of the stone door, and soon there were screams outside.

Master Kushuo had a ferocious face, took out half a bottle of black liquid from under the throne and drank it all, and endless shadows poured out of his body, and started a battle with Jie.

Wayne found that no one paid attention to him, so he went to the corner to continue eating melons and watching the show.

Kushuo, who absorbed half a bottle of Shadow Tears, had a great increase in combat power. His shadow energy was much stronger than Jie, and he once had the upper hand.

But his body was old, and even if he turned into a monster, he could not increase his physical energy, and his mind was affected by Shadow Tears.

Gradually, Jie figured out Kushuo's details and used a killing move.

"Instant Prison Shadow Killing Formation!"

Dozens of shadow shuriken shot at Master Kushuo, and Jie also rushed over.

The two separated in the air and fell to the ground at the same time.

Clang!

Plop!

The impact blade was sheathed, and Master Kushuo fell to the ground. Two intersecting knife marks appeared on his back, and black blood kept oozing out.

Jie turned around and looked at Kushuo with complicated eyes.

"Master, everything is over..."

"That's not necessarily true."

Wayne, who was watching the show, spoke, and Jie looked over in surprise.

The young man raised his right hand, and a vortex of magic condensed in his palm. Then, the black blood in Master Kushuo's body quickly flowed into his palm.

In less than a moment, Kushuo on the ground turned into a dried corpse.

"Kushuo has completely merged with Shadow Tears. This blood is his true body. Once he escapes and parasitizes on other people, Kushuo can be resurrected again."

"Too careless, Jie.".
