Later, after returning to the Central Plains, Yu found that he was implicated in the attack case, and the night world was in chaos. When Xu Guan said this, he had already explained all the circumstances of his disappearance in the past few years.

Although four hundred years have passed, when it comes to Situ Zhao, his face still can't hide his grief.

Wu Yan quietly listened to Xu Guan's narration and nodded slightly: "At the beginning, the leader of Wu Yan did fight with the night watchman named Situ Zhao in Shudi. When he mentioned this matter after returning to the clan, he also praised it twice, saying that he didn't expect that in the world today, in addition to a few old guys who practice witchcraft, there are such first-class masters. At that time, the leader of Wu Ji was able to match it with seven successful forces, and he was still able to take it, and he fought back and forth, which can be called strong. ”

Speaking of this, Wu Yan glanced back at Xu Guan: "However, no wonder you have only been cultivating for seven years, and you have become a master comparable to the Four Tripod Great Witches, and it turns out that you have inherited Situ Zhao's skills." ”

After Xu Guan finished talking about the past, his eyes were still a little red, and he could see that his mood had not calmed down.

"Do you know what I did at the time?" Wu Yan asked.

"At that time, Yu didn't know that Sister Lin was a member of the Lich Clan, so I didn't pay much attention to it. Xu Guan recalled that at that time, the situation was too chaotic, there was no night watchman in Kyushu, all small forces and groups had their own small actions, and the Lich Clan also took the opportunity to collude with a gang in the night world to infiltrate the imperial city and create a world-shaking attack case.

When Xu Guan returned to Kyushu, he didn't have time to think too much, so he threw himself into the chaos in a hurry. "Moreover, at that time, you were not a Dharma protector. Xu Guan recalled that he had only heard of the three protectors of the Lich Clan, not the four protectors.

"That's right. Wu Yan generously admitted: "I was named the fourth protector of the Dharma by the leader of Wu Yan after the end of that great battle, because of my outstanding achievements." ”

"Outstanding achievements?" Xu Guan sneered coldly when he heard this, and glanced at Sister Lin mockingly.

Wu Yan knew that everything she had done for the clan could not be recognized by Xu Guan, so she didn't dwell too much on this topic, she calmly recounted what she had done back then.

Because she was not a Dharma protector at that time, she didn't receive much attention in the early war, which also provided her with great convenience in doing things for herself.

After the outbreak of the assault case, a lot of chaos was implicated. Wu Yan, who has been confined to the small cave since returning to the clan, took the initiative to ask Ying to go out to deal with the inn, in fact, secretly he also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to secretly go back to see Xu Guan.

However, she and Xu Guan's affairs Wu Yi and others are very clear, she is now taking the initiative to ask for battle, and the careful thinking behind it has also been guessed, so when she was agreed, she was deliberately assigned to the battlefield in the area of Diqiu, and did not let her participate in the operation of going to the imperial capital to release the old dragon.

Regarding this matter, Wu Yan fought more than once, but each time he was rejected, and finally had to follow the order and set off for the area of Diqiu. Of course, Wu Yan's concern for Xu Guan could not be cut off because of this, after she left Xiaodongtian, she immediately secretly sent her servants at that time to Shunde to investigate Xu Guan's news, and after the failure, she inquired again, and then learned that Xu Guan was taken away by an old beggar during his tenure in a certain place, and he was missing.

Wu Yan did not give up, in the troubled times, he still kept sending people to look around, secretly probe, so after more than half a year, he was surprised to notice that a young new night watchman suddenly appeared, according to people's word of mouth, the appearance of this new night watchman seems to be somewhat similar to Xu Guan.

At that time, Xu Guan had been wandering around Yanzhao, especially around the imperial capital, and regarded it as the most important defensive zone, and had never been to the emperor's hill, or even Yuzhou, which had never set foot in it, after all, there were iron guards of the inn here, and Xu Guan did not need to worry about it.

However, Wu Yan was confined to the area of Diqiu and could not cross the Yellow River half a step north. After receiving this information, she immediately sensed the key to it, so she sent someone to Yan Zhao again, and according to the description of the person who had seen Xu Guan, she drew a portrait, brought it back to Diqiu, and sent it to Wu Yan's hands.

When Wu Yan unfolded the portrait, he froze, and the new night watchman was indeed Xu Guan. She brought this portrait to Wu Yi for questioning, but unexpectedly, Wu Yi had already known about it, and made it clear that it was because she knew about it that Wu Yan was not allowed to participate in the battlefield of the imperial capital.

"How do you know? Have you been spying on him all along?" Wu Yan asked Wu Yi.

The old man shook his head: "The big war is about to start, and the atmosphere in the night world is tense to the extreme, and the slightest disturbance may cause unimaginable consequences." How could I be distracted to spy on him under such circumstances?"

Wu Yan did not speak, carrying the portrait in his hand, and looked at him suspiciously.

"If I really care so much about this scholar, why bother to spend, wouldn't it be better to kill him directly?" Wu Yi noticed that when he said the word kill, the aura on Wu Yan's body suddenly turned cold, he laughed dryly, and explained: "A year ago, everything in the clan was ready for war. I infiltrated the locked dragon well in the imperial capital, and made a pact with the old dragon that as long as we rescued it, it would follow us to attack the inn.

Later, he sent someone to jointly design a case with the Dianjiang faction, intending to take advantage of the chaos in the imperial capital to release the old dragon.

Soon after the incident, a young man who claimed to be a night watchman appeared in the Yanzhao area. At the time, I guessed that Situ Zhao had a big fight with the leader of Wu Ji seven years ago, and after escaping, he was seriously injured and died, so seven years later his apprentice took over as the night watchman in his place.

With curiosity, I planned to meet this new night watchman in the past, but when I arrived, I found that this new night watchman was the little scholar who was in Shunde back then.

I had listened to the accounts of the people who had fought with him, and I myself observed him secretly for a while, and found that his strength under the blessing of the jade pendant was actually above me. So he personally returned to the clan and informed the leader of the witch.

After the four of us had a secret discussion, we decided that we must hide this matter from you, so we have not allowed you to go to the imperial capital, and I have always stayed in the clan to guard you. And this time, the two of us will come to this emperor hill together, and it is also being arranged. ”

Wu Yi briefly told what had happened.

"What are you going to do with him?" Wu Yan asked the question that was most on his mind.

"The Night's Watch isn't that easy to deal with. Situ Zhao was dealt with by the leader of Wu Ji himself, and he was not killed on the spot. Although this Xu Guan's strength is not as strong as Situ Zhao, he is not an easy person.

Now that the battle is fierce, the leader of the witch has to sit in the clan, and he must always be vigilant against the old guy in the inn to preserve his strength, so it is impossible for him to take action in person like last time. You can rest assured of that. Wu Yi appeased Wu Yandao.

"And then?" Wu Yan continued to ask.

"Create chaos in the Yan Zhao area first, let him run and deal with it. Anyway, it can't solve him, and the only way to do it now is to drag it out and confine him to Yan Zhao. When Wu Yi said this, he glanced left and right, approached Wu Yan and said in a low voice: "But even if Xu Guan's cultivation is not weak now, he is also a human being, not a god. is so exhausted, there will always be a day when I can't hold on. ”

"What then?" Wu Yan knew that this old man would not say this for no reason.

"Only if you have enough strength can you protect him. ”

"I join forces with today's Xu Guan, and there are not many people in Kyushu who can fight against. Wu Yan's eyes dimmed again: "It's just that I can't rebel against the clan because of this." ”

"Who said you were a traitor? Wu Yi lightly tapped Wu Yan's forehead: "You really care about it, the strength I am talking about is not this strength, but the right to speak." As long as your words are heavy enough in front of the leader of Wu Ji, then it is not impossible to save Xu Guan's life. ”

"What should I do?"

"I have been a little more outstanding here, and I have made a lot of achievements. I will find a way to recommend you as the fourth protector. ”

"Are you sure it works?"

Wu Yi assured: "Don't worry, I'm not talking nonsense. What are we waging war for? There is only one ultimate goal, and that is to break through the inn and enter the Fengfu Jade Gate. Everything that is done in the war is to consume the strength of the inn and serve the ultimate purpose.

If we can enter the Fengfu Jade Gate in this battle, it is best to kill him, and then it doesn't matter what kind of night watchman he is, whether he is dead or alive, the leader of the witch will not care at all; if he can't kill it, then after the truce, the leader of the witch will promote the warriors who have performed well in this war, and focus on training.

Throughout, the Night's Watch is insignificant to us, and as long as it doesn't affect the ultimate goal, the Witch Leader won't care. ”

"When the time comes, I will ask the leader of Wujie to spare Xu Guan's life, and after persuading Xu Guan not to meddle in the matter between us and the inn, it will be no problem. Wu Yan reacted, his heart was full of hope and motivation.

"Yes. As long as he stands by and you speak for him. The leader of Wu Ji may not really want his life, how did Situ Zhao die? Isn't it because he went to Shu to intervene and make trouble?"

"Okay, I see. Thank you, Wuyi Protector. Wu Yan gratefully saluted Wu Yi.

To some extent, Wu Yi did not lie to her, but the truth is not so good. When Wu Li finished the matter at hand and vacated the time, he took the four great witches to Yanzhao in person, preparing to encircle and kill Xu Guan.

PS: May the departed rest in peace.
