The Great Jing Dynasty, the Sea of Hell...

Night fell quietly, in the sky, a bright moon hung high, with the passage of time, the soft moonlight scattered in this endless primeval forest, at this moment the sea of hell seems so quiet.

However, under the calm night of the Sea of Hell, there is an infinite crisis, and the scenes of the jungle are staged in this dense primeval forest...

"It should be here. ”

In the night sky, a rickety old man suddenly appeared out of thin air, standing in the air, his eyes as sharp as eagles, scanning the brightly lit city below, and muttering.

This rickety old man was none other than the Ten Thousand Poisons Venerable of the Lingwu Dynasty, and the purpose of his trip was precisely because he was induced by Mo Yunzun to come to arrest Gu Ting.

Because of its geographical location, the importance of the ancient city as a strategic city at war between the two dynasties is self-evident. As the regional marquis of the Dajing Dynasty, Gu Ting, since the return of Jingdu, has been sitting here, guarding against the invasion of the Lingwu Dynasty day and night.

Even if it was late at night, Gu Ting, as the commander of the ancient city, was still inspecting the deployment of the city's defenses on the city, for fear that the deployment of the ancient city would still have loopholes, allowing the enemy to take advantage of it.

"Master Hou, it's late at night, you better go back and rest. We're here to make sure nothing goes wrong. ”

Behind Gu Ting, several accompanying lieutenants had been following Gu Ting to inspect the city defense for several hours, and when they saw that Gu Ting had no plans to rest, they kindly persuaded him.

"Yes, Master Hou; It's time for you to go back and rest, there's a lot of military business to attend to tomorrow. The other lieutenants who accompanied the patrol also echoed him.

"Master, it's time to rest. If the young master is here, I'm afraid I don't want to see you so tired. At this time, Mo Lao couldn't help but persuade.

As the commander of the ancient city, the pressure on Gu Ting's shoulders during this period can be imagined, almost every day he was busy until late at night before going to rest, resting for less than three or four hours, and getting up early in the morning to start dealing with military affairs in the city. With such heavy work, no matter how much Gu Ting can persist, he will not be able to bear it after all.

"Well, then there are all the workers here. In the face of the kind persuasion of the generals, Gu Ting finally stopped insisting on continuing the inspection, and turned to the generals behind him and instructed: "If there is any situation, report it to me as soon as possible." ”

"Master Hou, please rest assured. The crowd clasped their fists and bowed.

"Let's go back. Seeing this, Gu Ting was also not good at refusing, and slowly walked down the city tower with Mo Lao...

"It should be you. ”

In mid-air, the Ten Thousand Poison Venerable's gaze was already firmly locked on Gu Ting, who was walking down the city tower, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Capturing Gu Ting's regional marquis is nothing more than a gesture for his Ten Thousand Poison Venerable's dignified God Realm powerhouse, if it weren't for the fear of alarming Feng Yizhang, an old guy from the royal family, he could easily destroy the ancient city tonight and give Mo Yunzun an extra gift.

"Master Gu, entrusted by others, please come with me. ”

On the stairs of the city tower, Gu Ting and Na Mo Lao looked at the rickety old man who appeared out of thin air, and their eyes were full of shock. This person seems to be unattractive, and there is no breath fluctuation on his body, just like an ordinary old man, but he can enter this heavily guarded ancient city so easily, and appear in front of himself and Mo Lao, it is enough to see that his cultivation is unfathomable.

"Master, be careful. ”

Mo Lao, who recovered from the shock, directly stepped forward and blocked Gu Ting behind him; at the same time, the patrol soldiers on the city tower were also aware of it, so they rushed over, and after a while, where Gu Ting was, it was already the third floor inside, and the outer three layers were firmly surrounded by the heavily armed Gu family army...

"Do you think these people can protect you?" After glancing around, the Venerable Ten Thousand Poisons was still unmoved, and sneered: "As long as I am willing, I can make your ancient city cease to exist in an instant." ”

"Looking for me?" Hearing the words of the Venerable Ten Thousand Poisons, Gu Ting was thoughtful, and after a while, his heart was shocked, and his face showed a solemn expression, and he said, "If you can invite me in person with such a master as Your Excellency, it seems that I can't go." ”

"Master Hou, it's better not to reject me..."Ten Thousand Poison Venerable's eyes revealed a touch of coldness, and he smiled lightly: "Otherwise, I won't leave any people here." ”

Between the words, all the spiritual energy on the body of the Ten Thousand Poison Venerable surged out, and the endless coercion spread out with it as the center, and those surrounding Gu Family Army, in an instant, many people only felt a tightness in their chests, as uncomfortable as the blood in their bodies gushing up their throats...

"God Realm powerhouse!"

When he felt the aura fluctuation emitted by the Ten Thousand Poison Venerable, that Mo Lao set off a turbulent wave in the depths of his heart, and he was shocked, and in the face of this sudden coercion, his face also became a little pale; after all, this Ten Thousand Poison Venerable was a genuine God Realm powerhouse, even if it was just the oppressive feeling of the aura fluctuation, it was definitely not something they could bear.

"If Your Excellency dared to do it, I'm afraid you wouldn't talk so much nonsense with me. After a while, Gu Ting smiled lightly, and then said slowly: "Your Excellency is just coming to me Gu Ting alone, so why bother my subordinates, I'll go with you." ”

"Master of the house, by all means. Hearing this, Mo Lao hurriedly stopped him: "The head of the family..."

"I've got my own measure. Before Mo Lao finished speaking, Gu Ting's tone suddenly became a little sharper, and said, "I'm not here, the ancient city will ask Mo Lao." ”

"As the master of the ancient family, Lord Hou's courage is really admirable. Venerable Ten Thousand Poisons smiled lightly, and immediately gathered all his aura, and said, "Don't worry, Master Hou, I'm not interested in your ancient city. ”

"Master Hou, please. ”

With a wave of the Ten Thousand Poison Venerable's robe, the aura surged out, and a spatial passage instantly formed in front of him, and within everyone's sight, Gu Ting also stepped into it without hesitation, and finally disappeared in place with the Ten Thousand Poison Venerable...

"The whole city is on alert and has entered a first-level combat state. After a while, Old Man Mo came back to his senses and hurriedly ordered: "Rush back to Jingdu immediately and inform the elders of this matter." ”

Jingdu, the ancient family.

Bang.

In the council hall, after listening to the report of a silver knight, the Great Elder stood up suddenly, and the thick aura swept out, bursts of coercion burst out from his body, and his thin palm slapped violently, smashing the chair to pieces.

"Who is it that dares my Gu family to do it?" The Great Elder's voice with boundless anger resounded: "This matter, you must investigate it thoroughly for me!"

Gu Ting, the current head of the Gu family, was arrested, and if this news spread, it would not only shake the hearts of the people within the Gu family and cause unimaginable turmoil, but even cause a storm-like turmoil in the entire Jingdu. As the regional marquis of the Dajing Dynasty, Gu Ting's outstanding military exploits over the years have made him enjoy a high prestige in the army of the Dajing Dynasty, and if this matter is spread in the army of the Dajing Dynasty, it is very likely to cause a certain degree of wavering in the morale of the military. In this case, as far as the current situation of the two dynasties at war is concerned, it is extremely unfavorable to the Dajing Dynasty.

"Great Elder, this matter is obviously aimed at my Gu family, now, what should we do?"

The four elders under the seat also had solemn expressions, Gu Ting was arrested, whether it was against the Gu family or not, there was definitely a huge conspiracy behind this matter.

"As for the royal Feng family, do we have to inform the identity of the head of the family, after all, it also involves the Feng family to a certain extent. The second elder looked worried, looked around at the other people in the hall, and then said slowly: "If we can use the power of the royal family, it will not be useless for us to find out the whereabouts of the family master. ”

"The royal family naturally wants to notify, even if we don't report this matter, King Jing will know about it from other channels. Maybe now, King Jing has already gotten the news. The head of the family is the regional marquis of the Dajing Dynasty, and it is impossible for the Feng family to take no action. The three elders on the other side then said, "As long as the Feng family takes a stand, we will act without many scruples. ”

"At this point, it's useless to talk about it. After the Great Elder calmed down the anger in his heart, he calmed down and said, "Order all the departments of the Gu family to mobilize all forces to find out the whereabouts of the family master; ”

"As for the side of the royal family, even if we don't notify them, they will still receive the news as soon as possible, but for the sake of safety, there is Second Elder Lao for you to make a trip, and discuss this matter with King Jing. ”

"Great Elder, do you need to inform Feng'er about this?" After thinking about it for a moment, the fifth elder said, "Although Feng'er is still young, the head of the family is his father, and as the young master of my ancient family, it is necessary for him to know about this matter. ”

"As for Feng'er..."The Great Elder frowned, and after hesitating for a moment, he said, "Don't tell him about this yet, let him have a good experience in the Fifth Military Region." ”

"Great Elder, the turmoil caused by this matter, I'm afraid I won't be able to hide Feng'er for long. The fourth elder said worriedly: "Especially Qing'er's girl, she will definitely inform Feng'er of this matter as soon as possible." ”

"Qing'er is studying at Dinan Academy now, and I don't want her to know about this either. Feng'er and Qing'er are still young, so there is no need to bear such a big blow, they can hide it for a while. The Great Elder was also a little helpless.

In order not to affect Gu Qing's study in the Dinan Academy and Gu Feng's experience in the Fifth Military Region, the five of them, as elders of the Gu family, could only choose this approach;

Jingdu, within the royal city...

In a quiet courtyard, the black-robed High Priest of the Wind was standing by the stream in the courtyard, his head slightly bowed, his eyes calmly looking at the dead leaves floating in the stream, not knowing what he was thinking.

Next to the High Priest of the Wind was King Jing dressed in a golden robe; at this time, although King Jing's face was calm, it was difficult to hide his inner anxiety; what happened in the ancient city, King Jing had already received a secret report at the first time, so he rushed to discuss the matter with the High Priest of the Wind. However, after listening to what he said, the High Priest of the Wind fell into deep thought, and did not say a word for a long time...

I don't know how long it took, the High Priest of the Wind finally raised his head slowly, and looked at the distant sky, and at this moment, deep in his heart, there seemed to be a lingering sense of uneasiness, and even he felt inexplicably depressed.

"What should come will come..."
