Tonight, Kyoto is destined to be unpeaceful.
In a dirty corner that no one would normally look at, a beggar was swallowing food with difficulty. Suddenly, a black light lit up on him! He immediately threw the half-eaten dirty bun on the ground, his eyes turned blood red, and he was full of excitement...
Then the beggar stood up and walked out of the alley.
At this time, another beggar who was familiar with him in the past suddenly walked in carelessly, patted his shoulder with a smile, and said, "Hey! Xiaoqi, have you heard? Mr. Zhang's family is having a wedding, let's go together to beg for some leftovers?"
"No, I'm tired of that life..."
"What? Uhhh!—"
The beggar called Xiao Qi sneered, then clapped his right hand and smashed the new beggar into a pile of blood and flesh. He walked out of the alley with firm steps, his hair was messed up by the breeze, and the devil horns hidden by the mess were faintly visible...
…
The same scene was played out frequently in various places in Kyoto. One after another, ordinary people came out and slowly gathered outside the Forbidden City. It looked like a civil case of some scale...
The guards guarding the gates of the Forbidden City had some experience in this regard. One of them looked at the dark-skinned man in the lead and said impatiently, "If you have any problems, you can go to the government office to report. The inner city of Kyoto is not for people like you to enter. Don't cause trouble for me! Tell me, what is your name? Gather a crowd to cause trouble, and you will rebel!"
After saying this, the guard thought that the group of people behind the man would show angry expressions, so he gave him a chance to suppress them... However, what he got was just a bunch of cold eyes as if they were looking at dead people...
Then, the man chuckled, stretched out a hand... and directly broke the guard's neck!
At the same time, he said two words in the guard's ear as if to "answer" him...
Just two words.
But the whole audience was shocked and horrified!
Because those two words are actually... Magic, Handsome!
A demon commander who can rival the great cultivators of the human race
"Go in and kill them."
A pair of ferocious demon horns slowly "grew" on the Demon Commander's forehead. With a wave of his hand, the wolf-like and tiger-like demons behind him showed their ferocious faces, roaring and tearing all the guards in front of them into pieces. Their movements were so fast that not a single person escaped!
At this time, the crowds in Kyoto who were watching the excitement were already terrified! What did they see? These people... were all demons? Even the Demon Marshal was here
Impossible... Impossible!
How could a strong man of the Demon Marshal's level come to Kyoto quietly
Why didn't anyone notice him and stop him
This... what is going on
As if out of disdain, or perhaps because time was running out, the Demon Marshal did not issue an order to massacre the people, and did not even look at them... As he said "kill in", all the demons seemed to be filled with fighting spirit, and they roared, broke open the inner city gate, and directly charged into the Forbidden City!
…
…
Meanwhile, somewhere in the Forbidden City.
The flickering candlelight illuminated an old face.
"Hehehe... It's just as the adults guessed... Old man, you are really capable. You actually used this trick to deceive us for so long..."
Suddenly, a strange laugh was heard here, and then two figures slowly emerged. They were the two demon generals that Mu Hongyi and others encountered at that time!
Moko! Yeling!
And who else could the person opposite them be if not Mr. Gao
"You... actually figured it out?"
Gao Weng frowned slightly at the sudden appearance of the two demon generals. Then he heard the demon general Moko sneer and said, "You are very good at imitating, old man, but it's a pity! Fake, after all, it's fake. After a long time, who can you hide it from?"
Ye Ling Demon General snorted in agreement, "At first you acted very convincingly, and even the adults almost thought it was Emperor Zhou's soul clone. But if I think about it carefully, if Emperor Zhou's soul is really here, the so-called holy sound it emits would not be so weak... I thought it was strange at that time, but I waited until now just in case! Do you really think your trick is perfect?"
Hearing this, Gao Weng's face suddenly darkened. He suddenly thought of a possibility and frowned even deeper: "So... the news that Your Majesty received at that time was also released by you..."
"Hehehe... Old fellow knows a lot! That's right! Just as you said, the news about the 'Heavenly Secret Stele' was indeed written by us..." Demon General Moko couldn't help but burst into laughter when he said this, "Hahaha! What Emperor Wu of Zhou! What the strongest man in the vast land of China! Aren't we the ones who have fooled you around?"
Ye Ling Demon General said coldly: "Mo Ke, don't say that. Emperor Wu of Zhou must have known something, otherwise he would never take such a risk... He is an admirable opponent. Your words are a bit too much."
"Hehehe, Ye Ling! Have you forgotten what the adults said, that only dead enemies are worthy of respect! Lu Xuan blocked our demon clan's plan, and he is our mortal enemy that we must kill. You speak for him? Could it be that you are really like what the elders said, and you and those guys from the Chihuo Palace..."
"… Moko! Don't insult my last name!" After saying this, with hidden rage, the Moko Demon General rolled his eyes and laughed, "Okay, I won't say anything!"
As he spoke, the demon general Moko looked at Gao Weng and said, "This old man is not simple. In my opinion, we can only defeat him if we join forces. You must not hold back, Moko..."
Mo Ke snorted lightly, and his fists glowed with a faint black light. Gao Weng still frowned, "No! The Forbidden City is heavily guarded, and this palace is not an easy place to enter. How did you get in? What opportunity have you been waiting for?"
"Hehehe... You're still showing so much concern for someone who's about to die..." After saying this, Mo Ke didn't intend to reply. Just as he was about to take action, a somewhat delicate voice suddenly came from outside...
"Lord Moko, please let my godfather die with a clear conscience."
After these words were spoken, Mr. Gao's face suddenly turned pale, and the hand holding the whisk became a little unsteady. Under the candlelight, a handsome face emerged, and it was one of the eunuchs who followed Mr. Gao to the Chu Mansion that day!
He, named Gao Fu, was the adopted son that Gao Weng valued the most. A great eunuch like Gao Weng naturally had more than one adopted son, but this one was the one he favored the most and the one who had the best chance of succeeding as the next chief eunuch of the imperial palace...
"Gao Fu! Why are you doing this?"
The young eunuch Gao Fu laughed and said, "Godfather, can't you see that this child has already fallen into the devil's way?"
As soon as the word "fallen demon" came out, Gao Weng clenched his teeth, as if he wanted to bite out blood, his body trembled slightly, and he asked, "Why!"
The so-called "demonization" is a way for a "human" to become a "demon". It is mostly due to the dark side of the heart being dug out and constantly magnified. It is similar to "being possessed by the devil", but more rational than that... Once you fall into the devil, your strength in all aspects will increase greatly, but the price you pay is that you are no longer a member of the human race, strictly speaking, you are not a demon, but a "monster", dominated by the inner demon, and driven by all demons...
Once a person falls into the devil's ways, he is no longer a human being. As for those who fall into the devil's ways, the vast land of China has always adhered to the principle that anyone can kill them!
After Gao Fu finished speaking, the Demon General Moko laughed and said, "You hermaphrodites, neither male nor female, are too easy to lead to demons. I can find hundreds of reasons. Which one do you want to hear?"
"Master Mo Ke is right... Godfather, you don't know how good it feels to be a demon. That kind of power, surrounded by smoke, is like being in the clouds... Godfather, I really want you to enjoy that feeling..."
Gao Fu said, "Godfather, give up! The demons are powerful. After tonight, the human race will no longer have a chance of winning! You might as well become a demon like me! Once you become a demon, you won't have to worry about anything! We stand on the side of the strong, so we won't die, hahahaha... we won't die!"
Hearing this, Gao Weng regained his composure. He steadied his hand holding the whisk, looked at Gao Fu coldly, and said without any emotion: "So it turns out that it's because you are afraid of death. There's nothing to say!"
As he spoke, the whisk in his hand rose lightly like a hanging silk ribbon, and without even paying any attention to the little eunuch Gao Fu, he launched an attack like a violent storm directly at the two demon generals. However, the two demon generals were not afraid at all. Instead, they sneered and each blasted out a palm towards the whisk. The strong wind knocked down all the energy of the whisk, and even bounced some of it back!
"Hehehe, old thing, don't waste your energy, just hand over the 'Western Formation Hub' obediently! This way you can die more easily!" The Moko Demon General laughed strangely, clenched his palm, and picked up the whisks that fell on the ground and crushed them into pieces. "All your moves have been told to us by this fallen eunuch! If we continue fighting, you will only die more miserably!"
Although Demon General Ye Ling did not speak, his cold and arrogant expression showed everything...
Hearing this, Gao Weng showed no fear at all, but instead tightly grasped his whisk, his expression extremely cold...
Seeing this, the Moko Demon General was shocked: "Look, the old thing is still stubborn! Tsk tsk, why bother? The power of my demon clan tonight is definitely beyond your imagination. The Forbidden City formation is destined to be reversed and refined by us. Why do you insist?"
Ye Ling Demon General said coldly: "Maybe they have already succeeded in other places, Mo Ke, let's fight quickly here!"
"Well, I wanted to play with it a little longer, maybe I could make this person feel afraid and turn him into a demon... Hey, Ye Ling, you're such a bummer!" Shaking his head, Mo Ke did not hesitate at all. A bone sword slowly floated up from his palm and was held in his hand. "Then... let's make a quick decision!"
…
…
Throughout the Forbidden City.
It turned out that Moko was not lying.
It seemed that in an instant, all the demons lurking in Kyoto came out from the cold corners and attacked everywhere. Large-scale riots took place everywhere. Although these demons were still at a great disadvantage compared to the number of humans here, this attack was too sudden and still caught everyone off guard! Many people didn't even know how many demons were attacking... Panic began to spread, and the whole Kyoto became a mess in a very short time!
But those who are truly sober know that although the current situation is chaotic, there is only one key point, and that is the formation of the Forbidden City!
What made the defenders feel depressed was that the city defense formation that was supposed to kill all the invading demons was still running, but it was very sluggish, and the attack power against the demons was not as strong as before... There was even a tendency for the defense line to be broken through and the center of the formation to be approached!
It should be noted that the Forbidden City, as the inner city of Kyoto, has a total of four "pivots" in the southeast, northwest and northeast of its protective formation. Once all four "pivots" are captured, the demons can march straight in without any obstacles. Don't think that the formation is not playing much of a role now, but in fact it is not "really" working at all! At this time, the formation is like a giant who has just woken up and is unaware of the situation. It is powerful, but it only moves its eyelids to hurt the enemy. How can the effect be good
but!
Even though the formation is in an abnormal condition at the moment, it is slowly taking effect. It will only take a short period of time for it to be fully effective. By then, these invading demons will surely not return!
Therefore, guarding the core of the formation becomes the key to victory tonight!
Although the demons have already taken the lead in this regard, fortunately, at this time, because of the decisive battle, some masters have not left the Forbidden City, such as Luo Hou before!
He had left the Forbidden City after the outcome of the match between Qin Mu and him, but by some coincidence, he did not leave the Forbidden City!
At that moment, Luo Hou saw that the formation suddenly became strange, and took over the temporary command of the defenders in various places with the reputation of a former dragon minister, and began to organize an effective defense line and appropriate counterattack. Moreover, Luo Hou had a sharp eye, and soon saw the real goal of the demons from their seemingly scattered attack routes, and promptly set a trap in the eastern center of the formation, severely hitting the arrogance of the demons...
It's just... Lord Luo didn't have the military power tiger talisman in his hand at this time, so there were not many people he could mobilize. He also didn't know how many powerful demons had come tonight, and how many demon commanders like those who could be compared to great practitioners had come
With the enemy's situation unclear, Luo Hou chose to defend the formation like a forest, hold on to this place and wait for reinforcements... It must be said that although Luo Hou and Chu Tianxiao were enemies, those who could become divine marquises were not ordinary people. At this moment, he made the most correct decision!
The situation gradually stabilized...
After repelling countless demons and the crazy attacks of the fallen demons, the "reinforcements" finally arrived...
Seeing Qin Hou's figure appearing not far away, Luo Hou, who had already consumed more than 30% of his true energy, breathed a sigh of relief, feeling quite relieved. However... before he could really relax, a sharp chill suddenly came...
Luo Hou's pupils shrank slightly!
"No... You! You actually! - Ugh! -"
