After Wu Dongfang finished speaking, he immediately escaped to the Wood Clan and saw Fei Xuan spinning around in the Wood Saint Hall like an ant on a hot pot.
"What happened?" Wu Dongfang stepped forward quickly.
"Fei Lu stole my Minghong Sword." Fei Xuan said eagerly.
"When?" Wu Dongfang frowned. Fei Lu had taken the initiative to return the Minghong Sword in exchange for Fei Xuan's leniency. Now he has gone back on his promise and snatched the Minghong Sword away. It is unreasonable. The most important thing is that Fei Lu's cultivation level is not higher than Fei Xuan's, so it is not easy to snatch away the Minghong Sword.
"Not long ago," Fei Xuan raised his finger and pointed to a wooden table on the right, "Fei Lu seemed to have practiced some kind of evil magic. He came and went like the wind. He calmly took the Minghong Sword from the desk, and I chased him. When I got out, there was no trace of him."
Wu Dongfang slowly shook his head. It was unlikely that Fei Lu could practice evil arts. He was most likely to have his soul replaced like the Tu and Fire Celestial Masters. Back then, Mirage used the Ziwei Dharma Platform to control the Celestial Masters of all races. At that time, only a few of them hid in the Kunlun Mountains, and Fei Lu stayed outside. It would be easy for Mirage to steal his identity information.
"I suspect that Fei Lu's sorcery came from the underworld." Fei Xuan was worried.
"Did he attack you when he snatched the Minghong Sword? Did he talk to you?" Wu Dongfang asked.
Fei Xuan shook his head, "No."
Wu Dongfang nodded and turned to briefly describe the situation of the Fire Tribe and the Tu Tribe. Fei Xuan was shocked and confused after listening to it. What was surprising was that the few heavenly masters in the world had become the puppets of the Ghost King. What was suspicious was that the Ghost King He even strictly ordered not to harm the holy witches of the four tribes.
Wu Dongfang briefly stated his judgment again, "What do you think of this matter?"
"Your inference is reasonable. This matter is most likely caused by a certain generation of Emperor Yan who was unhappy with the Yellow Emperor's clan occupying the Nine Provinces. He took advantage of the opportunity of the Eight Stars Lianzhu to connect the three realms to summon his old troops to disrupt his Nine Provinces and seize his country." Fei Xuan said.
"It may also be that they had old grudges with the Yellow Emperor or the Yellow Emperor's descendants. I'm afraid that seizing the Tu clan's territory is just their means, not their ultimate goal." Wu Dongfang said.
"Why do you say this?" Fei Xuan asked in confusion.
"It is not ruled out that they will use this method to force the gods to appear, and then fight with them to avenge the past." Wu Dongfang said,
"It's also possible that if a child is beaten, an adult will always come out to protect him," Fei Xuan said.
Wu Dongfang walked to the wooden table, picked up the kettle and raised his head to drink water. He then put down the kettle and said, "I can't stay here for a long time. I have to go to the water tribe. Xun Shuang doesn't know what happened yet. I have to Go over and tell her."
"Okay, I will try to find Fei Lu and take back the Minghong Sword." Fei Xuan said.
"No," Wu Dongfang raised his hand and said, "I suspect that the one who seized Fei Lu's body is the Ghost King himself. It has the Minghong Sword in its hand, so don't mess with it."
Fei Xuan frowned and sighed repeatedly. Wu Dongfang's inference was reasonable. Fei Lu once occupied the position of Wood Saint and was able to use the two sacred skills of the Wood clan. , it can still heal people, the other party also has a decapitated Xingtian, Fei Lu will definitely use the dead wood to reattach Xingtian's head.
"If you stay in the Wood Clan, don't act rashly. The Ghost King's target is the Tu Clan. You don't have to interfere. I will act according to the opportunity." Wu Dongfang said to Fei Xuan.
Fei Xuan sighed helplessly. The four tribes have always been submissive to the Tu tribe and are loyal to the Tu tribe. However, the party causing trouble is probably the ancestor of the four tribes. This makes it difficult for him to stand and help. None of them are suitable.
"I'm leaving." Wu Dongfang said and disappeared with Earth Escape.
The spiritual energy emitted by the positioning spirit bead Si Ruo used to summon him had not dissipated yet, so he followed the aura back to the palace hall. He saw that the surrounding area of the hall was already filled with palace guards and archers, numbering over a thousand.
"Holy Witch, you came back just in time. The Yun Celestial Master has lost his mind and is killing mages and wizards in the city." Si Ruo said eagerly.
The situation was critical, Wu Dongfang didn't have time to tell Si Ruo the reason in detail, so he spun up and quickly rushed towards the west city.
The Tianshi Mansion of the Holy Wizards of the Five Tribes is located between the East and West City. When passing by the Tianshi Mansion, I found Fan Tong and the Prince sitting on the roof of the main hall, looking around.
"Why did it take so long? Xiadu is in chaos." The prince shouted loudly.
"I went to the Mu Clan and rescued Si Shaokang." Wu Dongfang didn't stop and headed westward.
"Why are you going?" the prince shouted.
"I'll be back soon." Wu Dongfang responded casually.
Don't look at Yun Zhu being stupid. This guy knows how to please the leader. After he became the "Tax Commissioner", he came over and gave him gifts several times. At the moment, the Tu Celestial Master is killing the mages and wizards in Xiadu, so he has to go and rescue Sister Yun Zhu as soon as possible. younger brother.
The Yun Zhu siblings lived in the same mansion. When Wu Dongfang arrived, a Tu Celestial Master was questioning a handyman about the hiding place of the Yun Zhu siblings.
Wu Dongfang fell down suddenly, raised his hand to shock him to death, and then shouted, "Yunzhu, are you okay?"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone pushed open the floor in the northeast direction of the room, revealing a pair of big eyes. Discovering that the visitor was Wu Dongfang, Yun Zhu hurriedly crawled out of the cellar, "I humble myself to pay homage to the Holy Wizard of Qitian."
"Get up, where is your sister?" Wu Dongfang asked.
"He's hiding in the backyard, Holy Witch. You're here early. I was just about to rush out and fight him to the death..."
"Okay, stop bragging. If he fights you, you will die or live." Wu Dongfang casually handed him a locating spirit bead, "Keep going back and hiding. If you encounter danger, crush it and I will come to save you." "
Yunzhu cried and took the stone ball, fell to his knees, "Holy witch, your kindness to this humble position, I will never forget it in my eight lifetimes."
"Bring him in too." Wu Dongfang pointed at the frightened handyman.
He didn't hear what Yun Zhu said because he escaped back to Tianshi Mansion.
"Xiadu is too dangerous. You should take your food and leave here and find a safe place to hide." Wu Dongfang said to the prince.
"How was the interrogation?" The prince asked. Wu Dongfang left before Wu Dongfang began to interrogate, and did not know the result of his interrogation of the Fire Tribe Celestial Master.
Wu Dongfang said a few important words, then raised his hand and pointed north, "I still have to go to the Water Tribe, so you should go quickly."
"Humph, if you had listened to me earlier, this problem might not have happened." The prince smiled.
"What do you mean?" Wu Dongfang asked puzzledly.
The prince did not answer Wu Dongfang's question, "After finishing the affairs of the Shui tribe, you dare to go back to the Jin tribe and hide. Don't worry about the affairs of the Tu tribe."
"Since I have become the Holy Witch of the Five Clans, I cannot ignore death without saving someone." Wu Dongfang said seriously.
"It will be dawn soon, and when the hour comes, it may not be who will die." The prince curled his lips and said.
"Why don't you intercede with me?" Wu Dongfang looked directly at the prince.
"The gods usually choose the chen hour when they descend to the human world. Once the chen hour arrives, Si Shaokang's helpers should be here. Let them fight. Let's leave it alone." The prince said.
"What else do you know?" Wu Dongfang asked. The prince had told him many days ago that the Ghost King might just use a place to fight, and would not attack him and let him stand by and watch. The prince is indeed very cunning, but he suspects that this matter was not deduced by the prince, and the old man is probably an insider.
"Why do you want to glare at me to death?" The prince tilted his head and did not look at Wu Dongfang.
"You just said that if I had listened to you, this matter might have been resolved. What do you mean?" Wu Dongfang insisted.
"Have you ever wondered why the Ghost King didn't kill you?" The prince tilted his head and asked.
"Stop changing the subject for me. What did you mean by what you just said?" Wu Dongfang insisted.
"The world is supposed to be yours. If you become Emperor Xia, Emperor Yan's old tribe will not come out. Your resignation will cause trouble." The prince said.
"I'm not a descendant of Emperor Yan. Even if Emperor Yan's old tribe wanted to help someone become emperor, they wouldn't choose me. I'll go to the Water Tribe first. You guys should get out of here quickly." Wu Dongfang said.
"You really don't know your origin?" the prince asked.
Wu Dongfang originally wanted to leave, but after hearing what the prince said, he quickly calmed down and said, "You know?"
"You should be busy with your business first. I will take you somewhere when you are free." The prince said.
"I'm not busy. It's okay if the Shui tribe doesn't go. There won't be any danger in Xunshuang. The Ghost King won't hurt her. Just tell her." Wu Dongfang urged. People are curious, especially things related to themselves. .
The prince tilted his head and looked at Wu Dongfang, "Have you lost your past memory by not telling me your origin?"
"What's wrong?" Wu Dongfang said casually. He had not lost his memory, but he wanted to hear what the prince thought about his origins.
"I once secretly investigated and found out that among the five tribes and nine states, only the Wu tribe has the surname Wu. The first chief of the Wu tribe was named Wu Quan, who was the minister of Emperor Yan. I had been there some time ago, but there was no one there anymore. I only heard about it later. Wu He, the last leader of the Wu tribe, competed with Hou Yi and defeated Hou Yi, who was ignorant of current affairs. Hou Yi exterminated the Wu tribe in a rage." said the prince.
"The surname Wu may come from Emperor Yan, but I have nothing to do with the Wu tribe," Wu Dongfang waved his hand, "To tell you the truth, I don't belong to this world at all."
The prince tilted his head in confusion. Wu Dongfang knew that the prince did not understand what the world meant, so he thought about it and said, "I do not belong to this universe."
The universe is a very old word. The prince understood it, but he was even more confused. "Then where do you belong?"
"You don't understand even after I told you. I'm going to leave first. You take your meal and leave here. I'll go to the water tribe first, and then come back to protect Si Shaokang. If the gods really appear and take over the protection of Si Shaokang, I will leave immediately." Wu Dongfang said Wantu escapes and disappears.
Appearing in the Water Saint Heavenly Master's Mansion, the lights of the Water Saint Heavenly Master's Mansion were brightly lit. Xun Shuang was holding a black ice halberd, frowning as he looked at the three humanoid ice lumps lying under the steps outside the palace, surrounded by many Water Tribe wizards.
After the battle that day, there were only five Heavenly Masters left in the Shui Tribe. After they returned, two took the blame and committed suicide. There were three left. These were the three lying on the ground. There were no wounds on these three Heavenly Masters. They must have been Xunshuang. Sensing something strange, he used water magic to freeze them.
Wu Dongfang briefly told Xun Shuang what happened last night, excluding what the prince said before.
Since the contents of the conversations were very similar, the problems were also very similar. After a quarter of an hour, the two of them agreed on a countermeasure. Xun Shuang stayed with his clan and waited to see what would happen.
At this time, the sky in the east had brightened up, and Wu Dongfang returned to the palace of Xia Capital with Tu Escape. The Tu Celestial Masters did not come back to attack Si Shaokang after being defeated last night, but most of the Tu clan mages and wizards in Xia Capital were killed by them. At this time, he should have gone to Jiuzhou and continued to massacre the Tu wizards there.
This night was extremely busy, and Wu Dongfang was very sleepy, but he did not dare to take it lightly. Fei Lu had already snatched the Minghong Sword, and it was easy to break open the iron gate.
At the third quarter of Mao hour, the sun rose in the east. As Chen hour approached, Wu Dongfang's heart suddenly felt light and heavy. When he thought that the gods were about to come to earth to protect Si Shaokang, he felt relieved. When he thought that the gods might regard him as his enemy, his heart became very heavy.
The sun rises at three poles, and the hour of chen arrives...
