Wearing a black tuxedo, he stood straight in front of the window, and when he was upset, he saw a young man sneaking between the ancient buildings, and finally sneaked into the Eternal Night Tower from the second floor.

"It's okay, it's enough to dodge those fools. He turned around and went downstairs, and when he came out, he didn't alarm the other patrol members, and rushed in the direction of the Eternal Night Tower alone.

Xu Guan hid on the fourth-story rafters, his ears tried to fit the roof as much as possible to hear the conversation upstairs, but unfortunately the wood between the floors of the Eternal Night Tower was too thick to hear anything;

On the fifth floor, around a large mahogany table, there is a circle of high-rise nightfish, and directly above it is the current patriarch Devourer, who looks the same age as a human in his fifties, with messy stubble poking out of the flesh like steel thorns; on the right hand sits his eldest son, Devourer, who is also his loyal supporter, in his thirties, with a strong body and a resolute face; and then down are seven or eight middle-aged men and women, and opposite are six old guys with white beards dragging the table.

At this end of the conference table, a delicate little bride in a red wedding dress was none other than Wu Yan, the protector of the Lich Clan, and beside her stood a maid, and four old slaves stood silently behind.

Just now, Wu Yan had finished all the words he could say, waiting for the response of the top management of the Nightfish, his pretty face was tense, full of seriousness.

The devourer had already agreed, just to give his men a little time to think about it.

After a long time, a middle-aged man asked, "After the war, the Lich Clan and the Inn are facing each other, do you still have the strength to help us share the attack of some other forces?"

"You can rest assured, the strength of the Lich Clan has surpassed that of the Inn now, and in addition to you, we have also reached an agreement with other demon cultivators. When the war begins, you are assured that you will receive support from us and beyond. ”

"Even if the other forces could handle it, what about the Night's Watch? Another asked.

"The strength of the night watchman is not because of himself, but because of the jade pendant, a token that has been passed down from generation to generation. The jade pendant can give the night watchman the ability to directly mobilize external forces, and without the jade pendant, the night watchman is just an ordinary cultivator. As Wu Yan spoke, Xu Guan came to mind, and he remembered that he met Xu Guan that night, and after four hundred years, he was not dead, which was really good. Thinking like this, the corners of her mouth unconsciously smiled.

"Lord Dharma Protector?" the man felt strange when he saw her expression.

"Hmm. It's nothing. Wu Yan found himself out of shape and continued what he had just said: "In the Wanli period, several masters of our clan besieged the night watchman at that time, killed him, and captured the jade pendant, and threw it into the lock dragon well in the imperial capital. Therefore, strictly speaking, those night watchmen who do not have jade pendants in later generations cannot be regarded as real night watchmen, and there is nothing to be afraid of. ”

"I would like to ask a digression. A man said cautiously.

"Excuse me. ”

"You got the jade pendant in the first place, why did you throw it into the lock dragon well, isn't it good to keep it?"

"The jade pendant needs a specific method to drive, this method can only be learned by the night watch, we can't urge it, it is useless to leave it. After seizing the jade pendant, he did have the idea of bringing it back to the clan, but it was noticed by the inn at that time, and he was entangled and killed, so he had to throw the jade pendant away and get out. ”

After Wu Yan finished answering, the conference room fell into a brief silence.

Xu Guan, who was hiding on the fourth-story rafters, didn't know about the conversation upstairs, and when he was depressed, there was the sound of footsteps stepping on the stairs downstairs.

Swallowing Yuan started to search from the second floor, and searched all kinds of places in the building that could hide people, and just finished searching the third floor, and was walking to the fourth floor.

Xu Guan heard the footsteps, and quickly hid his figure more tightly. When he reached the fourth floor, he walked around the room carefully and unhurriedly, noticing nothing unusual, and then looked up at the rafters on the roof.

Xu Guan didn't even dare to freeze there, waited for a long time, couldn't hear the movement below, thought it was safe, let go of his body, peeked down, and just poked his head out, he saw a young man in a tuxedo looking up at him.

Xu Guan's heart stopped suddenly, forced himself to take a deep breath, and exhaled three long breaths in a row, and finally came to his senses.

Eater Abyss hooked his hand at him and told him to come down.

Xu Guan felt strange in his heart, this person found that he was an infiltrator, and he should shout loudly to arrest him. Although he didn't understand why, he knew he had better do what the man said.

Xu Guan came down lightly and stood in front of the devouring abyss.

Devouring Abyss stared at him, "Nightfish?"

"The night after tomorrow. ”

The black cat noticed the movement downstairs and hurried back, seeing Yu Yuan and Xu Guan standing facing each other.

Yu Yuan turned his head to see the black cat parked on the window lattice, put his index finger to his lips, and said softly, "You come with me." ”

The black cat and Xu Guan were afraid that they would disturb the people upstairs by making a move here, so they had to follow behind the devouring abyss honestly.

He was all too familiar with the guards in the city, and he took the black cat and Xu Guan around to avoid the guards and walked to an old building on the edge of the city.

The facilities in the building are outdated, and there is no place to sit. The wooden door creaked shut, and the devouring abyss looked at the man and cat in front of him.

"Why didn't you catch us?" said the black cat.

"I wish someone had come and sabotaged this coalition meeting. With a bitter look on his face, he asked, "Which side are you from, and what are you doing here?"

Xu Guan hugged his fists and said: "Xu Guan, the night watchman under the city, has come here to look for the Great God Tree." ”

"Night watchman?" Yu Yuan looked at Xu Guan, obviously not believing, when did this kind of talent come out of the Night Night?

Xu Guan nodded with shame on his face, how did he become a night watchman. He said that the events such as the loss of his true qi and the failure of his body to recover for a long time were the same as they were.

After hearing this, Yu Yuan didn't react much, neither believing it nor saying that he didn't believe it.

The black cat said, "Since you don't want to ally with the Lich, but you can't stop it, why don't you choose to believe us?" In the war, he is a key player in order to save the Nightfish. ”

Yu Yuan frowned, and Xu Guan clasped his fists at him again: "What Yu Fangcai said is not half a lie, please believe it." Together, we can stop this war and avoid a catastrophe. ”

After a long pause, there was no other way to do it, and finally nodded: "Okay, I will trust you." ”

The black cat breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Where is the Great Divine Tree?"

"The Great Divine Tree has long since died. Swallowing the abyss turned to the side, stroked the moss-covered wooden window lattice, and said with a lonely expression: "Look at this city, most of it is empty, and most of the vitality of the Nightfish clan has dissipated. ”

"What's going on here?" Xu Guan wondered why all the ancient buildings on the outskirts of the city were deserted.

"Once upon a time, this city was a sacred place in the hearts of all Nightfish, and they were proud to be here once. When the Night Ray Clan was at its most prosperous, there were many people and masters like clouds, and it could be said that it was a hegemon in the night world, and the prosperity of this lair was no less than that of any human city.

Later, the Great Divine Tree died, and the broad canopy collapsed, rotting into the earth along with the roots that had been deep in the ground, and the spiritual sustenance of the Nightfish was gone. There was even a period of time in the Night World, where some cultivators even hunted and killed the Nightfish to get poison and sell them for money, which made the Nightfish clan humiliated. Unwilling to be humiliated as the patriarch, my father launched a war with the hunters, but was suppressed by the inn.

Speaking of which, they should also be grateful to the inn, it is they who protect the Nightfish. Later, the inn also made rules to restrict cultivators from hunting night rays again. It's just that slowly everyone no longer regards this city as a holy city, and the night rays outside no longer yearn for this place, and the night rays in the city begin to dislike this dilapidated ancient building, and they would rather move out and hide their identities in human society to survive than continue to live here.

The Nightfish have fallen to this extent, but my father has nothing to do. At this time, the Lich Clan's protector arrived, giving Nightmar a chance to rise again. If this battle can be won, the Nightfish will surpass the past and reach the top again under the leadership of their father. The city will once again be a sacred place, and the Nightfish will remain the dominant party in the world of Nightfall. After speaking, he shook his head with a wry smile, "But if it is defeated, there will be nothing left of the Nightfish." ”
