When Mo Wen arrived at Jimo Huaxue's side, Lv Tianshang had already withdrawn the trap and left with Lv Fanxian and others who were passing by. He looked at Jimo Huaxue's mouth, which was still bloody, and asked with concern, "Are you injured?"
"It's nothing serious, but we failed to stop him and Xier was taken away." Jimo Huaxue put away the Hongyan Sword, with some regret in her tone.
Mo Wen nodded: "The people of Yingzhou are indeed terrifyingly powerful. But I don't understand why they want to take Nangong Xier away?"
"I can't figure it out either." Jimo Huaxue shook her head.
The rest of the people from the academy arrived at this moment. After seeing Jimo Huaxue, Li Wai and Zhou Zheng both bowed respectfully and said, "Lord of Jimo City."
Jimo Huaxue waved her hand and said, "Don't be so polite. Just call me Second Sister-in-law."
"This..." Li Wai glanced at Zhou Zheng.
Zhou Zheng did not hesitate and immediately changed his words: "Second sister-in-law."
The nine evils of Demon City glanced at Mo Wen at the same time. Mo Wen's face was uncertain. After a long silence, he said: "The most urgent task is to gather the troops. This time, we can't wait. We must take the lead in attacking Yingzhou and take back Su Baiyi and Miss Nangong."
Above Yingzhou.
Xuanyang Palace had been razed to the ground, and a group of men were working day and night to build a new house. Under Lv Xuanshui's order, a mountain villa needed to be built within a few days and named Dengxian. At this moment, Lv Xuanshui was sitting on the edge of the cliff, looking up at the starry sky.
"My Lord." The white-haired Lu Haoxian landed behind him.
"Oh? Are we here?" Lu Xuanshui stood up and turned around, looking at the woman leaning on Lu Haoxian, "Is this person the successor of the Wandao Heart Sect?"
"Yes." Lu Haoxian nodded.
"What a beauty in the world." Lu Xuanshui walked over and raised Nangong Xier's chin with his hand. "Very good. Insert the Rebirth Nail into her and seal her power. Then bring her to the Nuanyu Pavilion and keep her under guard."
"As you command." Lu Haoxian picked up Nangong Xier and wanted to leave, but after hesitating for a moment, he asked, "All the factions in the martial arts world will gather in the South China Sea in the next few days. What do you plan to do next, my lord?"
"We don't need to choose what to do next. They will make the choice themselves. Gather all the disciples who can fight and be ready to fight at any time. Let's have the first bloody battle." Lu Xuanshui turned around and continued to look at the vast starry sky. "In this battle, we will completely defeat them."
"Defeat them completely, then..." Lu Haoxian frowned.
"You can choose to release those two monsters as long as you feel you have the courage to bear the consequences." Lu Xuanshui said quietly.
"I understand." Lu Haoxian let out a sigh of relief and walked down the mountain with Nangong Xier. They came to a very beautifully decorated palace halfway up the mountain. He put Nangong Xier on the ground and then took out four nails from his arms. With a wave of his hand, the four nails hit Nangong Xier's hands and feet.
Nangong Xier felt pain and woke up from her coma. She opened her eyes and saw Lu Haoxian. She was about to stand up to resist, but she found that she had completely lost all her strength and could not move at all. She shouted, "What did you do?"
"Miss, don't panic. Just take a good rest here. Come here." Lu Haoxian waved his hand, and two maids came out from the Nuanyu Pavilion. "Take the girl to the bedroom to rest. Except for the few honorable masters and three honorable envoys, no one else is allowed to approach here."
"Yes." Two maids helped Nangong Xier up and brought her in. Lu Haoxian turned around and jumped directly off the cliff, and finally landed beside a cold pond. The golden carp that was originally swimming in the cold pond seemed to be disturbed, and the calm lake surface began to fluctuate.
"What are you doing here?" A dissatisfied voice sounded. The voice was muffled, as if a hood was hanging over the person.
"Old men, you have been locked up at the bottom of the lake for so long, don't you want to come out and move around for a while?" Lu Haoxian asked with a smile.
"Damn it. It's the same reason that I can't refuse again." The lake water suddenly stirred, and Lu Haoxian hurriedly took a few steps back. Then there was a bang, and the lake water poured down. A man tied up with chains landed in front of Lu Haoxian. He had a full beard and a strong body. "It's been more than 20 years. Who are you going to fight this time?"
"Need I say more?" Another person walked out from the bottom of the lake. Compared to the previous person, he was white-faced and beardless, and his body was extremely thin. He was also tied up with chains all over his body. He looked up and said, "Look at the direction of the stars."
The sturdy man looked up and scratched his head: "I don't understand."
"We are no longer in the Southern Region. We are at the shore again, Yingzhou," said the thin man.
The sturdy man was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes revealed a bit of ecstasy: "I see, that's it! We are going to fight with Su Han again! When and where? Could it be now! Quickly get someone to unlock the shackles, I have waited for this moment for too long."
Lu Haoxian had a headache. He sighed softly, "Su Han is already dead. The people we need to kill this time are from other sects."
"What, Su Han is dead? Who can kill him?" the burly man exclaimed.
"Then it is Nangong Yunhuo?" The thin man frowned slightly.
"He is dead too." Lu Haoxian shook his head.
"Then what is there to fight about? Su Han is dead, Nangong Yunhuo is also dead, that stinky Taoist priest and the dead scholar were half-crippled back then, and you can't beat those remaining bastards? Let Lu Xuanshui go by himself and don't bother me while I'm in meditation!" The sturdy man cursed angrily a few times, turned around and was about to go back to the cold pond.
The thin man looked at Lu Haoxian: "I can promise you, but we have a condition."
Lu Haoxian bowed his head and said, "If you two elders have any requests, just ask."
"The conditions are the same as before. Let Lu Xuanshui give us the antidote for the Fire Dragon Pill. Then after this, we will sever all ties with Yingzhou and be truly free." The thin man said in a deep voice.
Lu Haoxian thought about it and nodded, "Okay, I promise you two."
"You are just a distinguished envoy. Can you make such a decision?" The thin man sneered.
Lu Haoxian raised his head and looked in the direction of Xuanyang Palace: "The Lord said that as long as I can take on this responsibility."
"Okay." The thin man turned around and said, "Go away."
"This is Bingya Pill, which can temporarily suppress the fire dragon poison in the two elders' bodies. When you need their help, I will send someone to unlock the black iron shackles for you." Lu Haoxian put the medicine bottle on the ground and left.
"Brother. Can you trust this Lu Haoxian?" asked the burly man.
"No one can be trusted in Yingzhou." The thin man sneered, "This bottle of Bingya Pill is enough."
