Great Jin Divine Kingdom, Zhongheng Kingdom, Jiushan Prefecture, Pinghu County, and Huachong City.
Huo Xiong's hometown, Huachong City, still looks calm.
The big commotion outside the city a few days ago has disappeared. The big hole where the water and fire gourds were born has also been filled up by the masters sent by Zhongheng Kingdom with their great magical powers, and the mountain topography has returned to its original state.
There is one less wealthy family in the city and a new city owner. That's all. It has no impact on the lives of the people in the city.
It was almost dusk, and in Junhu City, a few wisps of smoke rose slowly over the Huo family's house. The air was filled with a strong aroma of wine and meat, and a faint smell of elixirs drifted out of the courtyard wall with the wind.
All the neighbors of the Huo family know that Huo Xiong is getting rich.
A third-grade general, the chief general of the state army in Daze Prefecture.
All the neighbors were amazed and said that smoke was coming out of the Huo family's ancestral grave. Third-grade general, this is the highest military rank ever achieved by a military household in Huachong City. Prior to this, the highest military rank in the entire Huachong City for more than a thousand years was only a sixth-grade captain two hundred years ago, and for hundreds of years He died on the battlefield of the Three Kingdoms many years ago.
What's impressive is that Huo Xiong really didn't forget his roots and was very generous to his relatives.
As soon as the news of his promotion came back to Hua Chong City, several messengers sent a large amount of cultivation pills to the Huo family. The boys of the Huo family who were still learning the ways of fighting in the military in the martial arts hall were enjoying their blessings.
Those elixirs were extremely effective. In just a few months, a group of boys from the Huo family were like bamboo shoots in spring. Their cultivation realm and strength soared. Some little ones who were not even ten years old actually completed the construction. Ji, he directly cultivated his magic power and stepped into the Senxuan Realm.
As for the slightly older young men of the Huo family, they have broken through all the way in the Chonglou Realm, leaving their peers in the military households of Hua Chong City far behind.
What makes the Huo family's neighbors even more envious is that these young people of the Huo family have all converted to a sophisticated martial art, completely abandoning the "three-turn Yuan Gong" popular among the Jin army.
The messengers also sent the exercises, and they explained that this set of exercises would become the Huo family's ancestral exercises in the future, and could be passed down by the Huo family from generation to generation.
It is said that this "Black Qiu True Skill" can cultivate the true body of the black dragon, and its power far exceeds the Shenwu Army's "Nine Transformations of Yuan Gong". It is a truly top-notch magical skill.
The military households in Huachong City all said that the Huo family was now completely prosperous.
With the help of top-notch elixirs in their cultivation, the children have laid an extremely solid foundation and their cultivation progress has been astonishing. In addition, he has practiced the top skill "Black Qiu True Skill", and the magic power he has cultivated, the physical body he has condensed, and even the supernatural powers and secrets he has comprehended are far beyond those of ordinary military households.
In a few years, these young men from the Huo family will definitely be able to make great achievements after joining the Shenwu Army, and a large number of captains and even captains will emerge like a spurt. Give them a little more time and produce two or three third-grade generals... Hehe, the Huo family will be in serious trouble.
By then, even in Jiushan Prefecture, the Huo family will be one of the top wealthy families, and they will be able to sway their arms and dominate, right
"Hey, this is a good life!" Several veterans with scars all over their bodies who had retired from the army squatted in front of the threshold of their homes, looking at the door of the Huo family diagonally across the street, while licking their noses vigorously, tasting The scent of medicine in the wind was sighing loudly.
"There is green smoke rising from the ancestral graves." An old soldier kept nodding and praising: "Hey, when Brother Xiong comes back to visit his relatives, I have to ask him, does he want to recruit personal soldiers? He is now a general, and he will be protected by personal soldiers. , How can our local children be at ease?"
The eyes of several old soldiers became bright and shiny.
This thing is reliable.
This is an excellent way out. If my son can follow Huo Xiong and serve as his bodyguard, it will be much better than being an ordinary soldier in the Shenwu Army.
The commander-in-chief of the state army of a state has hundreds of thousands of soldiers' supplies, food, wages, life and death punishments in his hands. If something slips through his fingers, it is enough for his family to eat and drink, and for his son to advance by leaps and bounds.
Otherwise what the old people say, one person can achieve enlightenment, a chicken or a dog can ascend to heaven!
If Huo Xiong's child has achieved positive results, these local army children will naturally ascend to heaven. What a great thing
"Well, I have to go talk to some old guys from the Huo family about this matter." An old soldier stood up and said loudly: "We are all old brothers, and we still have this kind of friendship. I don't know what the big brother is. Where is Zezhou and why should we wait for Brother Xiong to come back to visit his relatives?"
With a big wave of his hand, the old soldier staggered towards the main door of the Huo family: "Come on, I will select the most outstanding children in the family, gather 1,800 people, and send them to Brother Xiong." .”
"What general doesn't have a few confidant brothers from his hometown? Our baby is born to be his best soldier and best guard. Brother Xiong, this is the fate of our Flower and Insect City."
Several old soldiers stood up excitedly and walked to the Huo family's old house with great interest.
The light at dusk was originally dim, but suddenly, the light in the entire Huachong City and Gundo Castle suddenly dropped, from dim to almost invisible.
Several old soldiers suddenly raised their heads and glanced at the sky.
The sky was gray, as if blocked by a layer of fog.
Several veterans are veterans who have fought in the Three Kingdoms battlefield. If they can come back alive in a dangerous place like the Three Kingdoms battlefield, it goes without saying that they must have extremely rich combat experience.
They shouted at the same time: "Every household, be careful, there are enemies..."
A pale white soul-calling flag appeared out of thin air over Junhu Castle. A white hand stretched out from the gray mist, grabbed the soul-calling flag and shook it gently.
Several old soldiers were stunned and fell to the ground with a few "thuds".
In the military household city, among the hundreds of military households, no matter men, women, old or young, cats, dogs, chickens or ducks, they all rolled their eyes and fell to the ground.
Then the soul-calling flag suddenly fell from the air, turned into a long flag more than ten feet high, and hit the door of the Huo family mansion heavily. With a loud noise, the door of the Huo family was smashed into pieces, and even the two iron lions that had just been erected at the door were smashed into discus.
Dozens of figures wearing white clothes and wearing white masks on their faces. There were no facial features on the masks, just a bloody handprint painted with bloody paint. They fell from the gray mist and fell straight to various parts of the Huo family mansion. .
"Should we kill these military households?"
An erratic voice came quietly.
"Killing all the young and old members of the Huo family means... Killing these military households will not get you a single copper coin reward. If you are willing to waste your efforts, just do it!"
Another voice said lightly: "In short, no one is left alive in the Huo family. All the cats, dogs, chickens, ducks and mice will be slaughtered. These military households are all yours to do!"
Dozens of people in white giggled and floated into the Huo family mansion with ease.
When they arrived, they had already found out that the Huo family was just a small ordinary military family, with only a hundred or so people in it, and their highest level of cultivation was not higher than the Chonglou realm. And all of them are at the pinnacle of the Life Pond Realm, and the captain and deputy captain who lead the team are even masters of the Fetal Pond Realm.
Killing the entire Huo family, young and old, as brutally as possible. This is just an extremely easy task.
Compared with the missions they had carried out before, this operation was no different from traveling around the mountains and rivers.
Dozens of people in white clothes floated into the Huo family's mansion, and then they were shocked to find that there was no one in the Huo family's mansion. Including the kitchens that were spewing out smoke, and the school grounds behind the big courtyard, there was no one around.
"Oops!" The hair on the man in white who had just spoken in an understatement exploded all over his body. His scalp was numb, and he hissed: "No, this Huo family... there is a ghost..."
There was a loud bang, and a large piece of thunder turned into a large net as thick as an arm, covering the entire Huo family's house.
In the Huo family's mansion, carefully hidden formations erupted with dazzling light. Large groups of elite soldiers wearing heavy armor, fully armed, with black visors on their faces, and only a pair of vaguely visible eyes on their bodies emerged from these. A small hiding formation emerged.
These armored men were in groups of three, holding halberds, heavy swords, and crossbows respectively, and they coordinated skillfully to crush the men in white.
The people in white clothes all screamed in surprise. Just as they were about to fight back, an extremely powerful force of confinement came from the void, forcibly suppressing their souls and preventing them from mobilizing any mana.
"Ten Jue Forbidden Formations!" The people in white yelled angrily: "Which royal palace do you belong to?"
The Ten Jue Forbidden Formation, this is the unique formation of the clan of the Kingdom of Jin Dynasty. It can isolate and confine all the energy of heaven and earth. Unless you have a strong cultivation and can destroy the formation with one blow, you will be completely suppressed by the formation. Even the mana cannot be mobilized.
This is a unique formation used by the royal family of the Jin Dynasty to suppress and intimidate the princes of all parties. It is extremely powerful and has extremely distinctive characteristics.
And because this formation is too powerful and the damage is too cruel, even among the clans of the Jin Kingdom, only those princes with real power and high status can practice it.
For example, the Prince's Palace where Sima Lang was born has a team of guards who practice the Ten Jue Forbidden Formations.
As for Prince Yan's Mansion, where Sima You was born, Prince Yan, as a free prince, did not have much authority in the court, and his ranking in the clan was only above average. Prince Yan's Mansion was not qualified to have a glimpse of the secrets of the Ten Jue Forbidden Formations.
The appearance of the Ten Jue Forbidden Formation here proves that at least one prince who is ranked high, has a high status in the Kingdom of Jin, and has real power has taken action!
"We belong to the Cardinal Palace! We are from the military department!" The captain of the man in white yelled at the top of his lungs.
They are secret killer spies controlled by the Cardinal Hall. They are proficient in various assassination techniques, and are proficient in various witchcraft and poisonous poisons. They are very good at killing people invisibly.
But in the Ten Jue Forbidden Formation, facing these specially trained guards who specifically cooperate with the Ten Jue Forbidden Formation to kill, they are absolutely no match.
No one among the elite soldiers said a word, no one spoke. They were just a group of three, and they rushed towards the men in white with exquisite coordination. They joined forces in groups of three or five, first firing with powerful crossbows, then slashing with long halberds, and then using heavy swords to kill at close range.
There is no fluctuation in mana, just pure physical power to kill at close range. For these men in white who have their mana imprisoned and cannot use magical powers and secret techniques at all, this is the most terrifying blow.
Their white clothes, which were not weak in defense, were broken by crossbow bolts, split by halberds, and then chopped into pieces by heavy swords.
Along with the shattered bodies, their bodies, their souls, and even the divine fetuses of their captains and deputy captains. In the Ten Absolute Forbidden Formations, they couldn't even make the divine soul and divine fetus fly through the air.
Ten absolutes, ten absolutes, this is a complete desperate situation, there is no chance of escape at all.
In just one cup of tea, dozens of the top killers of the Cardinal Hall with powerful cultivation were all killed or injured.
A big man wearing heavy armor turned around and said in a deep voice to several old people of the Huo family who had just walked out of a small hiding formation: "Guys, have you made your decision? Leave with us, young and old of the Huo family. We guarantee your safety."
The big man continued: "Besides, General Huo Xiong has a bright future now. You can live in his territory. Everyone can rest assured."
Huo Xiong's father, Huo Hu, murmured a curse word, then nodded vigorously, and said solemnly to several elders of the Huo family: "Dad, uncles, it seems that that boy Huo Xiong has really offended a big shot. Let’s just take the IOU!”
They were all from military families, and they were all veterans who had been on the battlefield. Several old people from the Huo family stamped their feet vigorously, and then waved their hands vigorously: "Gather the clan members and let's go!"
An hour later.
The imperial capital of the Jin Dynasty, Anyang City.
In the northwest corner of the imperial city, in a residential area where a large number of high-ranking military officials gathered, a carriage slowly passed by.
There was no one driving the carriage. The carriage was dragged slowly by an ordinary black horse, slowly walking along the spacious avenue covered with greenery.
The black horse's eyes were cloudy and stiff. It was obvious that someone had used a spell to control its soul, and all its movements were not from its original intention.
The carriage came to a wealthy mansion, and then the black horse stopped here.
With a 'bang' sound, the black horse exploded, and a large amount of blood stained the gatehouse of the mansion red.
From the gatehouses on both sides, a large group of armored guards rushed out. The side door opened and several monks in robes floated out with a hint of spiritual light.
"Be careful, don't touch these blood stains... there is a very vicious spell inside!"
A monk who was proficient in spells and poisonous poisons shouted harshly and stopped the impulse of these guards.
In the sky above dozens of mansions near and far, there are monks with their feet on the floating clouds, whispering to each other and looking at the activities here.
The carriage shed was rolled up by a violent surge, revealing dozens of human heads piled neatly inside into a pyramid shape.
A small soul-calling flag was placed in front of the human-headed pyramid, its pale face swaying feebly.
There was a burst of exclamations from the mansions near and far, followed by angry roars.
Especially the military bosses who were affiliated with the Cardinal's Palace were furious.
Among these heads, there were several people whom they all knew. They were members of a top assassination secret spy team under the jurisdiction of His Royal Highness the Cardinal.
Their heads were chopped off and sent to the door of the private residence of Zhao Xiu, the deputy master of the Cardinal Hall, using secret techniques!
This is a provocation, a provocation to Zhao Xiu, and a provocation to the entire Cardinal Hall.
Of course, in addition to provocation, there is also a sense of shock and warning.
However, whether the big guys in the Cardinal Hall of the Military Department will be intimidated and accept this warning... Who knows
After a cup of tea, Zhao Xiu gave an order with a cold face in his study: "Then let him die, let him die!"
In Anyang City, there is an undercurrent of turmoil.
