Little Lonely City Volume Little Lonely City Volume Chapter 88 Ambush

At that moment, the three teams were agreed, Yu Che and the others headed to the northeast, Wujue and Feng Xizhu went to the northwest, and Su Mengan and Wan Hai led the remaining team to the south.

The three teams agreed together that after three days, whether they found the inheritance land or not, they needed to return here to discuss, and each team had a communication tool specially made by the city lord's mansion in their hands, if they found the inheritance land, or encountered an ambush, they could trigger this tool, so that the other two teams could rush to support as soon as possible.

Su Meng'an and Wujue's two teams set off first, and Yu Che's team, since Feng Cunzhu had led some people to inspect before, they needed to wait for them to rest for a while. After another half hour or so, Feng Cunzhu and the others finished resting, and then they also set off and headed for the northeast.

In a valley in the Yunmeng Mountains

There are dozens of people in this valley, all of whom are dressed in purple clothes, and there is a large flag in the center with the three big characters "Moon Spirit Gate" written on it. This Moon Spirit Gate is a force within the Jade Sea Empire, occupying four cities. The Yuhai Empire has a vast territory, and in terms of land area, it is almost equivalent to the original territory of the five Great Yu Dynasties, but the level of the Jade Sea Empire is the same as that of the Great Yu Dynasty, they are all intermediate dynasties, and although the strength of the monarch of this empire is at the level of the Sword King, it is the Sword King Xiaocheng. And because he has been getting older and older over the years, he has also regressed a little in cultivation, and none of the children under his knees are gifted, so the Jade Sea Empire has the possibility of being demoted.

However, according to common sense, the official strength of the Jade Sea Empire is weak, and it should have been annexed long ago in an environment like the Northern Realm Spirit Plain. But the reason why the Jade Sea Empire has survived to this day is from its special form of government.

When the Jade Sea Empire was founded, it was not a single imperial polity, but was jointly established by dozens of small empires. They chose one of the most powerful monarchs from the many small empires to serve as the king of the Jade Sea Empire, that is, the ancestor of the current king of the Jade Sea Empire. The rest of the people were all made princes, and when the Jade Sea Empire was established, the momentum was about to overshadow the limelight of the City Lord's Mansion in Xiaogucheng.

However, this situation did not last long, when the first king of the Yuhai Empire died, the second king who succeeded was a generation of male lords, and he was very dissatisfied with the phenomenon of princes everywhere in the country, and the heirs of these princes were eating the flesh and blood of the country, and had become a burden on this huge empire. Therefore, he understood the idea of cutting the feudal domain, but his political mind was not particularly clever, the policy of cutting the feudal domain was too strong, and the foundation of the empire was not stable shortly after the founding of the country. Therefore, many people launched a rebellion, fortunately, this king is a monarch immediately, and after decades of conquest in the south and north finally put down all the rebellions in the country, the Jade Sea Empire is also in the north to claim hegemony, and the most powerful time the Jade Sea Empire is among the ranks of high-level dynasties.

But the good times didn't last long, after the death of the Sword Emperor-level monarch who brought the Jade Sea Empire into the ranks of the Dao High Dynasty, the strength of the Jade Sea Empire took a sharp turn for the worse, and the three successive kings failed to change this state. For a while, foreign forces were eyeing each other, and they all wanted to bite this sick lamb. Even some countries have already launched an attack on the Jade Sea Empire, and the territory of the Jade Sea Empire has shrunk greatly.

However, the monarch of the Jade Sea Empire also thought of a solution, that is, to find all the descendants of those princes back then, that is, he planned to use their power to consolidate the Jade Sea Empire. But because these people have been immersed in the rivers and lakes for many years, they have long lost the aristocratic temperament of the past, and they are more of some market gas.

One of the leaders of them negotiated a condition with the monarch of the Jade Sea Empire, that is, they could help the Jade Sea Empire defend itself against foreign enemies, but they also had to get the corresponding power. Of course, it is not at the political level, if these descendants of the current princes are allowed to engage in politics, it will undoubtedly be a free gift, and they are not that material at all. The so-called orange is born in Huainan is orange, and born in Huaibei is orange, nothing more than that.

Their condition was that if they set up their own forces in various cities within the Jade Sea Empire, the Jade Sea Empire would not intervene, and the Jade Sea Empire at that time could almost be said to be precarious, so they could only use dead horses as live horse doctors. However, the Jade Sea Empire also has its own conditions, that is, they need to pay a fee to the Jade Sea Empire if they occupy the city. But everyone knows that this tax can be said to be a drop in the bucket for a city, and this is just a rhetoric used by the Jade Sea Empire to cover up its shame.

However, the strength of these people is also extremely strong, and in only three years, they have beaten back all the originally lost lands of the Jade Sea Empire, and then these people have set up their own forces in various cities. Attacking each other is like a copy of the Northern Regions Spirit Plain, and the Jade Sea Empire also acquiesced to their actions, and these people are also protecting the Jade Sea Empire in a special way. This is the reason why there are so many forces within the Jade Sea Empire.

With four cities entrenched, the Moon Spirit Gate is already a force that is not weak in the Jade Sea Empire. Their master is also a sword king-level powerhouse, and there is also a sword-king-level deacon sitting down. The power is not much better than the major forces in the small lonely city, and even the strength of the Wan Qi Chamber of Commerce and the Baicao Pavilion is far inferior to his.

The Moon Spirit Gate had also participated in the auction organized by the Wan Qi Chamber of Commerce before, so the map in their hands was produced by the Wan Qi Chamber of Commerce himself. And what some forces take, others imitate. There is always no shortage of people in the world who like to make money, and some people have copied the map of the Wan Qi Chamber of Commerce to sell it among other strengths that have not participated in the auction, you must know that the inheritance of the Eight Turns Sword Saint can be said to be a priceless treasure in the eyes of cultivators, so the value of these maps is also rising. Many forces are relying on this to make a lot of money.

But there is inevitably a fake, but once those people are discovered, they will inevitably die. After all, the forces that are qualified to compete for the inheritance of this eight-turn sword saint must be extremely strong.

The Moon Spirit Gate is also elite this time, and the dozens of people present are among the best in the Moon Spirit Gate, and the master of the Moon Spirit Gate is also personally accompanying him this time, after all, no one knows what kind of thoughts everyone will have in front of this kind of inheritance, if his subordinates secretly calculate him and hide the inheritance privately, it will not be good.

The master of the Moon Spirit Gate is a thin middle-aged man, with a treacherous face, two small mustaches are extremely long, and he looks like a mouse, his name is Xu Luo, and his own cultivation has reached the strength of the Sword King Dacheng.

At this time, he was sitting on a rock, with the map in his hand, but he was frowning.

A middle-aged man on the side said, "Door master, according to my speculation, is this map wrong?"

That Xu Luo raised his head and looked at the middle-aged man, this man didn't look like Xu Luo, he was very ordinary, but that outfit didn't look like an ordinary person. And the aura that emanated from all over his body ruled out this option.

Xu Luo looked down at the map again and said, "If it's wrong, it's also your Ling Xuan's business, and the person who went to the Wan Qi Chamber of Commerce is you." ”

That Ling Xuan was stunned, and while Xu Luo was not paying attention, he glared at Xu Luo fiercely, Xu Luo also felt some hair on his back, so he looked up at Ling Xuan and said, "Don't you make a statement?"

Ling Xuan hurriedly said, "But I was negligent, and I asked the door master to punish me." ”

Xu Luo waved his hand and said: "No need, you are also one of the best masters in our Yueling Sect, if you talk about fighting alone, I am not your opponent, just pay attention in the future." ”

Ling Xuan was the deacon of the Moon Spirit Gate, and he was also the remaining Sword King level master of the Moon Spirit Gate, but he was the Sword King Xiao Cheng. However, what Xu Luo said also made some sense, Xu Luo was a poisonous swordsman, and if he was a sneak attack or assassination, he would be more powerful, while Ling Xuan was a thunderbolt fighting spirit, and he might be able to show more power when fighting people head-on. Although there is a gap between the two in terms of cultivation, when it comes to fighting alone, Ling Xuan is still better.

Ling Xuan said: "The cultivation of the door master is even more secretive, if it is ambushed, it will definitely be a strange soldier." ”

Xu Luo waved his hand and said, "You don't have to compliment me, I can still tell how many catties and taels I have Xu Luo." ”

As he was talking, Xu Luo felt that something was wrong, and then he looked up at the surrounding terrain, but found that these people were in a basin, and when he was camping, he just felt that it was close to the water source, and the terrain was vast and convenient. But now it seems that this place is a little dangerous.

"Ling Xuan, what did you just say?" Xu Luo said.

Ling Xuan was a little confused, although he usually hated Xu Luo very much, but now he was also asking himself, that is, he said, "My cultivation of you is better than secrets. ”

"Not that. Xu Luo said a little anxiously, "It's the next sentence." ”

Ling Xuan thought about it again and said: "If it is an ambush...... before Ling Xuan's words could be spoken, he was interrupted by Xu Luo: "That's it, ambush, ambush." I didn't think of it. Then Xu Luo looked around again, and saw that around this basin, the back was against the dangerous mountain, and in front of him was a pile of mounds.

"I didn't expect that I, Xu Luo, would be ambushed, Wan Qicang, Wan Qicang, what are you planning. Xu Luo narrowed his already small eyes and said.

As soon as the words fell, I only heard a voice from behind the mound: "Master Xu, don't come unharmed." ”
