Divine Brilliance

Chapter 42: Assassination of Miyun

Views:

Zong Shou smiled coldly, choosing the disgraceful method of ambush and assassination, but his skills were inferior and he died. If Qi Xiao's teacher still wanted to have face, he should never come looking for him.

But if you think about it more carefully, in this era, the God-Emperor has not yet appeared. All the five continents and sixteen islands in the Cloud Realm are filled with bloody killings and endless battles. As long as you don't like someone, you can draw your sword, and if you like something, you can rob it. A strong man can dominate everything, and a big fist is the reason. Except for those big sects that claim to be famous and upright, who else will tell you any rules

Only when the God-Emperor unites the world in all directions and establishes etiquette and rules, will future generations of martial spiritual masters be restrained.

However, it is indeed difficult for the Huanyang Realm spiritual masters from the Cloud Realm of Middle Earth to seek revenge and come to Linyun Continent in the east.

But who exactly was instigating this person is quite a headache. There were too many people who might have planned to ambush him.

Thinking about it carefully, one’s own identity is really surrounded by enemies—

Secretly smiling bitterly, Zong Shou brushed the matter aside and looked at Yin Yang up and down: "How are the injuries? How many people died over there? Are there any survivors?"

Bixue'er's injuries were more serious, with dozens of blood marks, some of which were still bleeding. However, Yin Yang's spirit was extremely strong, as if nothing was wrong.

As expected, Yin Yang ignored his injuries and frowned slightly: "The total number of twelve people has been killed! They are all dead soldiers, hiding poison. Xue'er and I captured three people, but none of them were able to Survive. There is another secret martial artist who is escaping, but I can't catch him."

Zong Shou sighed, but fortunately he had given up hope when he asked. Then he turned his head and looked carefully in the direction outside the dense forest: "Then what are our losses?"

Speaking of losses, Yin Yang's two thick eyebrows were almost tangled together. His face was full of bitterness, and when he spoke, he was still concise and to the point: "The loss is huge!"

It wasn't until Zong Shou was carried back on the road by Chu Xue that he realized what kind of magic Yin Yang meant when he said that the loss was great.

Of the sixteen cloud-stepping horses, four were dead, and the rest were all slightly injured. Fortunately, these horses ran in front and did not bear much impact.

And the cloud-turning car also completely changed its shape, making a huge pit on the ground.

But this car is really solid, as expected of being made entirely of fine steel. The Fanyun Chariot, which was ten feet long and weighed fifty thousand kilograms, was overturned to a height of thirty feet before falling. It didn't fall apart, it was just that some of the steel plates on the body were slightly twisted.

You can imagine how sturdy this cloud-turning car is.

Zong Shou felt like crying but had no tears. In this era, each Cloud-Stepping Horse was worth around one hundred thousand taels of silver. And a cloud-turning car built by a spiritual blacksmith might not be available for even one million taels.

"The fifty thousand kilograms of iron lumps were blown up thirty feet! How many explosive flame talismans did these guys use?"

Zong Shou first looked to the side. The huge pit in the middle of the road was fifty feet in diameter. Fortunately, most of it was offset by the spiritual formation on the chassis of the Fanyun Chariot. Otherwise, the impact alone would be enough to kill him and Yin Yang in the car.

Naturally, they can spare their lives, but those people are not merciful. It's just that once the number of explosive flame talismans exceeds the number, or if other high-level talismans are replaced, a wave of psychic energy will most likely be triggered. Chuxue Yin Yang, who was sitting in front, must also feel it.

The terrible thing is, this is probably just a test by those people. Most likely he just wanted to see what kind of backup Zong Weiran would have, who was still standing behind him, and how he would react afterwards

If it is an innate martial arts cultivator, or a spiritual master from the Night Travel Realm takes action himself. In today's battle, they can only wait to die.

After walking around his cloud-turning car again, Zong Shou breathed a sigh of relief.

The entire spiritual formation was not seriously damaged and only needed some minor repairs before it could continue driving. At least getting to Obara Castle wouldn't be a problem. The fine steel and craftsmen produced there are enough to temporarily repair the car.

Then he felt pain in his body again, and the beast crystals he carried on his body were really not much anymore. Fortunately, this time, I got a lot of supplements from Qi Xiao. The total value is about half a million grains of silver.

There is also the third-level cold underworld tiger. This soul beast alone is worth three times as much as the Cloud-turning Chariot.

This time, he finally didn't lose too much.

"correct!"

Zong Shou suddenly remembered something, turned around, and continued the interrupted topic: "Yin Yang, remember that my father had set a fiancée for me before? This girl's father is the lord of Xuanshan City?"

Xuanshan City is called a city, but it is actually a country. Built on Xuanshan Mountain, it has a radius of more than fifty miles.

All human towns, large and small, for thousands of miles nearby are under its jurisdiction, and its influence extends to three provinces. And its city lord is also of the half-demon lineage.

In Zong Shou's memory, this person's strength seemed to be only inferior to Qian Tianshan. Even more, there is no going back on friendship with Zong Weiran.

When Yin Yang heard this, he shook his head again with a gloomy expression: "Your Majesty, it's better not to count on Xuanshan City. It is said that the princess of Xuanshan City has always opposed this marriage. Recently, even her father and mother have also The attitude is ambiguous. In these years, I have ignored the prince, and I can tell one or two things-"

Zong Shou felt relaxed all over, and even the losses just now didn't feel so heartbreaking.

What he hates the most is this kind of unclear involvement.

※※※※

It took an hour to repair the spiritual formation of Fanyun Chai. I also sorted out all the traces of the battle here. When Yin Yang drove forward again, it was already an hour and a half later.

And just when the carriage, which was already in disrepair, disappeared at the end of the road. Two figures suddenly rushed in from a distance, one behind the other.

One is in his middle years, and the other is a young man. Their faces are hidden in the rain and cannot be seen clearly. Only the two red palm marks on the left and right are clearly visible.

"Who is this, setting up a murderous plot?"

Looking around carefully, Feng Xiao showed a thoughtful look on his face: "The heavy rain is pouring down at this time, which is the time when water spiritual power is at its peak. To blow up such a deep pit, at least fifty high-level Explosive Flame Talismans were used-"

Looking around again, the branches and leaves of the trees were swept away by the sword energy and fist wind. Feng Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly: "At least four secret martial arts masters fought fiercely here for a quarter of an hour! Two of them died! In addition, there should be a spiritual master!"

Zong Ling had long known that Feng Xiao was experienced, but he was still slightly surprised at this time. But the next moment, there was another sneer: "Who knows who it is? There are too many people who want my cousin dead, and there are also many people who want to protect him. In short, it can't be our manpower!"

Feng Xiao shook his head and walked into the dense forest like a ghost. Half a quarter of an hour later, he stepped out again.

But his face was a little pale: "The spiritual master who took action has reached the peak of soul viewing. If I am not mistaken, this person is probably that Qi Xiao. From what I can see, this battle should be within ten breaths. One sword is fatal, piercing the brain!"

"Qi Xiao? I heard that this person had a good relationship with Zong Yang in the past and became a friend. However, this person also has some friendship with the people of Lieyan Mountain. It can be speculated that Lieyan Mountain is setting the blame, or maybe Zong Yang did this on purpose, using this person’s identity to confuse the public—"

Zong Ling murmured in a low voice for a moment, then suddenly woke up and finally realized the true focus of Feng Xiao's words. His expression also changed.

"Did you just say that within ten breaths, a sword was fatal and penetrated the brain? The person who made the move was an innate strong man? Aren't all the people who secretly protected my cousin been targeted? Who is this person? Where did it come from?"

Feng Xiao shook his head slightly: "I don't know what the situation is! I only know that it is extremely difficult for even an innate martial artist to kill a soul-watching spiritual master with one sword. This situation is really a bit weird! That Zong Shou is next to him , I’m afraid the strength is a bit beyond our imagination. If we have to, if we need to take action personally, I’m afraid we will have to add more people-"

The words were filled with confusion and confusion.

What happened at the foot of Danling Mountain and the situation here today are all disturbing.
