"That may not be the case." Ma Zhaoming's voice was much softer than before.
"It's not certain. The three hundred of us Jinshi will be buried here with Fang Xusheng! Fang Xusheng's death is a worthy one, and it is more important than Mount Tai." Lei Li's words were filled with hatred and anger.
"Brother Lei, why do you have to do this? We still have hope. Since it is an accumulation, it is equivalent to a part of the power of the Saint. We still have a chance!"
Ji Zhibai sneered and said, "Why deceive yourself? Even Ji Shouyu's gifted eye was easily blocked, and even the saints could not rescue him. He will definitely die this time. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is buried with Saint Fang Xu."
"You can't say that." He Ludong said.
Lei Li sneered, "Let me ask you, if Fang Yun hadn't been here this year, would the demons be willing to use the Moon Tree Phantom to kill us? Without the Moon Tree Phantom, the demons in the ancient land of the deserted city would not be able to receive the baptism of the Demon Moon's light for five years, which would be enough for our human race to counterattack. The loss to the demons would be no less than the death of hundreds of demon kings! Apart from Fang Yun, who else is worthy of the demons paying such a huge price?"
Kong Detian looked at Lei Li coldly and said, "Brother Lei seems to have given up on being a gentleman! At this moment, blaming anyone will not help. What we need to do is to work together to overcome the difficulties!"
"I am about to die, shouldn't I condemn the murderer?" Lei Li asked back.
"Murderer? Did Fang Xusheng force you here, or did he want to kill you! If Fang Xusheng is the murderer, then King Wen who angered the demon saints is the murderer, and Kongsheng who forced the demon world to sign a thousand-year treaty is the biggest murderer! And the saints who fought against foreign enemies together are also murderers! Even the dumbest people know that the person the demons want to kill must be the person that my human race will protect at all costs! As an elite of the Xusheng family, you have fought against the demons for more than ten years, but you can't even see through this matter. It's really shameful!"
Everyone didn't expect Kong Detian to be so angry, but after thinking about it, they suddenly realized that the Kong family dragon was killed by the demon saints and the demon king, so the people of the Kong family would definitely be angry when they encountered a similar thing.
Lei Li's momentum weakened, and he said, "I am not blaming Fang Yun, I just feel that my death is not worth it! I didn't die directly on the battlefield, but died indirectly under the calculations of the monsters. I am unwilling to accept this!"
"Yes, everyone, please don't blame Brother Lei for not dying on the battlefield. I would not be willing to die in a conspiracy." Ji Zhibai sighed.
Many people had sad looks on their faces. Indeed, no one would have thought that they would die in such a place.
Fang Yun raised his head, stared at Lei Li, and said firmly and forcefully: "This is the battlefield! Monster Mountain is a battlefield, the ancient land of the deserted city is a battlefield, and every inch of land under the feet of our human race is a battlefield! If you don't have this awareness, don't talk about advancing in literary rank. If you dare to mention the Holy Way again, it will be the greatest insult to the Holy Way!"
Lei Li was speechless. He did not expect Fang Yun, who was so young, to have such a thorough understanding of the relationship between himself and the two tribes. He even found that if he refuted Fang Yun's words, it would go against his own heart and damage his literary courage.
"That makes sense. If the demon world breaks through the Two Realms Mountain, our Shengyuan Continent will surely fall. Under the threat of demons, scholars like us should always be on the battlefield. Our enemy is all the demons, the entire demon world!"
"To die in the Spring Hunt is no different from to die anywhere else."
Li Fanming suddenly smiled softly and said, "With Xu Sheng dying with us, what else do we have to regret?"
Yan Yukong added: "I originally thought that my rank would be surpassed by Fang Yun, which would make me ashamed to face my fellow countrymen in the future. Now I don't have to worry. No matter how powerful Fang Zhenguo is, he will only be a Jinshi like me in the end. Thank you to the demon saints for helping me save face."
All the scholars suddenly chuckled, easing the tense atmosphere.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's continue discussing business. The three demon mountains must be heavily guarded. They seem close, but they are actually far apart. There must be more than 100,000 demons and barbarians around each mountain, and there are also a large number of demon marquises. Killing 30,000 demons and 100,000 demons is not the same thing. Maybe we may not be able to kill them all even if we run out of energy. Therefore, if we can't find the source of the disaster, we can only test one mountain at a time. Just one mountain is enough for us to search for a day, which is no different from waiting to die on the spot. Brother Shouyu, more than 300 lives depend on you."
Ji Shouyu pondered for a moment and said, "I have a way to break the power of the Saint and see the source. But I need the help of a few people."
"Oh? Who can help you?" Kong Detian asked.
Ji Shouyu glanced at everyone and said, "Those who help me will suffer some disasters in the future."
Fang Yun smiled and said, "No matter how great the disaster is, it is not as great as the word death. Tell me."
"Brother Shouyu, tell me, at this point, what else are we reluctant to give up?"
Ji Shouyu nodded, and glanced at everyone again, calling out their names as he looked: "Fang Yun, Kong Detian, Yan Yukong. I need the three of you."
When these words were spoken, many Jinshi looked stern.
These three people are extraordinary. Fang Yun is the leader among the children of poor families, a genius that appears once in a thousand years. He is the one who represents the will of the people of Jing and the destiny of the country, and is even canonized as a virtual saint by the saints.
Yan Yukong is the representative of the aristocratic family. He is a genius. Before Fang Yun, he was the brightest new star of the human race and a disciple of a semi-saint.
Kong Detian himself is one of the seven Jinshi of the Holy Academy and the leader of the Kong family. Needless to say, the fact that he is the grandson of the head of the Kong family is an identity that many people cannot reach.
The scholars immediately understood that Ji Shouyu was taking advantage of the unknown luck of the three of them.
The Spring and Autumn Annals knows the past, and the Book of Changes predicts the future. Ji Shouyu wants to rely on his own talent and the power of the King's Star left by King Wen to obtain the unknown power of the three people and break the holy power of the monsters.
That unknown power is said to be useless, but in fact it is overdrawing the future of the three people, which is more terrifying than overdrawing their lifespan.
Lifespan can be compensated, but that unknown power is lost once it is lost, and no one knows whether it can be recovered.
Just like a person who works very hard will accumulate enough strength, which will surely enable him to pass the imperial examination in the future. However, if this strength decreases, he will most likely not be able to pass the imperial examination.
If that unknown force were to decrease, it would not only affect one's position, but also one's life!
Everyone knows it.
"So that's how it is. Just take it." Fang Yun said with a smile.
"It's a small matter." Kong Detian said.
"Not worth mentioning." Yan Yukong said.
The three of them were extremely calm, without any reluctance at all.
"Okay!" Ji Shouyu was equally decisive. Two light golden Wen Wang Bagua diagrams reappeared in his eyes. He first carefully checked Fang Yun, Kong Detian and Yan Yukong one by one, and finally turned around and looked at the three demon mountains.
"Boom..."
After a loud bang, Ji Shouyu screamed and flew backwards as if he was hit by a huge hammer, and his body hit heavily on the Qiguo Jinshi behind him.
"not good!"
Fang Yun and others rushed towards Ji Shouyu quickly.
Somewhere in the belly of a demon mountain, a snake shadow suddenly emerged from a green egg, and a sinister and sharp voice spread to the ears of all the demon lords.
"Now that the lowly slaves have discovered my existence, there is no need to hide it any longer. All the demons and barbarians in Demon Mountain must come out and surround and kill them with all our strength, forcing them to flee and buy time for me! As long as we hold out for ten hours, even if the great scholar himself comes, I can kill them!"
"As you command!" (To be continued...)
