At midnight, Fei Chuxiang woke up from her sleep.
She stood up and listened for a moment, confirming that she heard correctly that there was a faint roar coming from the distance, mixed with the clanging sound of metal collision.
"Feiqing!" she shouted towards the end of her bed.
A dark figure came closer quietly, "Grandma, I'm here."
Hearing this voice, Fei Chuxiang immediately relaxed a lot, "Go and light the candles. There seems to be something going on outside?"
"Yes. It's been going on for probably a quarter of an hour."
A quarter of an hour... Could it be that the enemy chose to attack Changye City at night? But the Gaoguo army did not have sufficient siege equipment. What reason did it have to think that it could threaten the towering city wall
Seeing the fire light up, she couldn't help showing a look of disgust when she saw the other party's ugly face, "You should avoid it first."
"Yes." Fei Qing lowered her head and stepped back out of the candlelight.
"Shui'er! Shui'er!" Fei Chuxiang shouted towards the door.
However, the maid who usually waited in the outer room did not respond to her call.
"I think this girl wants to die!" She cursed fiercely, and when she wanted to get out of bed to see what this blind maid was doing, Fei Qing suddenly rushed in front of her!
Almost at the same time, a chain broke through the door and ran straight towards the bedside.
Only a buzzing sound was heard, and Fei Qing used her sword to completely block the attack. Then she stretched out her free left hand and pushed hard toward the door.
An invisible force swept across the room!
With a deafening bang, half of the wall was shattered by the blow, and the inner room and the outer room formed a connected space.
This is someone's own plan!
Only then did Fei Chuxiang react. She crawled to the dark partition of the bookcase and twisted the mechanism, trying to leave the bedroom through the secret passage.
But the agency did not take effect.
"No need to waste your efforts." A cold female voice came from the smoke, "As long as I don't die, you can't leave here."
"Who is it? How dare you come here to assassinate me!" she roared angrily.
"It's me. Thank you for the gift. I'm very satisfied."
Another voice shocked her whole body, and then two figures crossed the damaged wall and walked into the spacious inner room. One of them was the speaker, His Highness the Second Prince.
"Your Highness, what do you mean!?" Fei Chuxiang said almost through gritted teeth.
Although she said this to the second prince, her eyes were always fixed on the other person next to him. She was a strong woman, wearing the official uniform of the Privy Council, with her arms wrapped in chains. It was obvious that the raid just now was Initiated by this person. What made her extremely wary was the double embroidery on the other person's shoulder.
This means that the person coming is the Green Sword of the Privy Council!
"Do you still need to ask? You are just an ordinary person who cannot feel Qi. You should be over fifty. Why do you still look like you are in your thirties from the outside? As far as I know, there is no such thing in ordinary alchemy. The art of keeping one's appearance, not to mention that your actions don't look like you just changed your appearance." The second prince's tone was as cold as ice, "I suspect that the Fei family may be involved in forbidden arts, and I hope you can cooperate with the Privy Council's investigation. .”
"That's it?" Fei Chuxiang opened his mouth, and then showed a look of surprise. "I understand that it doesn't matter what the excuse is. You came here for the Fei family's secret technique, right? Let me guess what makes you take such a desperate risk. The reason must be related to His Majesty's dragon body illness? Do you want to rely on secret skills to ascend the throne that should belong to the prince? "
"It seems that you are quite well informed. Unfortunately, I don't think this technique belongs to the Fei family."
"It's a joke. Are you going to admit it if you don't admit it? This is an agreement reached by His Majesty Taizu and the six great families to obtain an immortal technique from King Yong's treasure house as a reward. Do you want to tear up this agreement?"
"Does it have anything to do with me? I'm just fulfilling my duties as an alchemist in the Privy Council." Ning Qianshi said nonchalantly.
"Okay, okay!" Fei Chuxiang said three good words in a row, "Thank you for saying it! Our Fei family shoulders the mission of guarding Suzhou, and now there are 100,000 enemy troops gathered outside Changye City! You are here If you touch me at this time, are you trying to give up all this great power to others?"
"You don't have to worry about that and they'll be able to stay overnight in town soon."
This sentence made Fei Chuxiang's eyes widen instantly.
Did you hear it right
As the second prince of Qi Kingdom, he actually became an internal agent of the enemy country
Does he know what he is doing
"Ning Qianshi, you are crazy!"
"Of course not. If it weren't for the Gaoguo army, I really wouldn't be able to let a large number of alchemists from the Privy Council gather here." Ning Qianshi spread his hands, "If you give up the resistance, forget it and stop saying these polite words, no matter you arrive Failure to resist will lead to death."
"It's not certain who will die!" Fei Chuxiang shouted, "This person is not the second prince Fei Qing, kill him!"
"It's Grandma." The latter once again grabbed the position where the two were standing and screamed violently. The air instantly turned into a powerful air wave as if it was being pushed continuously by something!
But before she could take action, Qing Jian had already constructed a chain iron net, and the air flow through this net was obviously much slower.
"Is it magic?" Ning Qianshi covered her cheeks and asked.
"Nine times out of ten. I didn't see her using any medicine or talismans, but..." Qing Jian said calmly, "The power of this move is not terrible."
"It seems that this person cannot exert the full power of Xianjutsu. Let's fight quickly."
The latter nodded and suddenly pulled up the chain in his hand.
While the second prince was talking with Fei Chuxiang, she had already extended the chains to every corner of the room to prevent the mechanism from taking effect. It was the iron ropes that were wrapped like a net under the floor.
When she controlled the chains to fly out, the entire net had already taken shape.
All the creatures in the bedroom are prey in her web.
In an instant, the wooden floor was torn apart, and four or five chains were crisscrossed up and down, locking Fei Qing in place. Two of them, one on the left and one on the right, accurately trapped her neck.
Because he could not move, the latter's face was also exposed to everyone.
It was an extremely terrifying face. Half of her face seemed to have been burned by fire, without a single piece of intact skin, while the other half was filled with black mist.
"ah!"
Fei Qing let out a beast-like roar and pointed at the green sword with the hand that could still move.
But this time, nothing changed.
"Isn't it strange?" Qing Jian stepped forward and pointed at the sword, "Even immortal magic needs to be performed with Qi. When there is more powerful Qi condensed nearby, it will not be so easy for you to activate the magic. ”
After saying that, she cut off her palm towards the other person's neck.
Feiqing's head separated from her body in response.
The black energy that was out of control was about to expand outward along the blood she spurted out, but Qingjian was one step faster. She took out a lightning strike wood and pointed at the chain with one hand.
The dazzling electric light instantly lit up the entire house!
The intertwined chains became the best carrier of thunder and lightning. In this flickering blue-purple light, the black energy was completely dispersed like smoke.
"Next is you." Qingjian retracted the chain and said to Fei Chuxiang.
