Under the moonlight, that bit of bright red was so dazzling that it was terrifying.

The snake was still holding the long knife and posing in an offensive posture, but the knife in his hand was already powerless, he opened his mouth wide, the expression on his face froze in the panic of that moment, and then he fell unwillingly.

Puff .......

The corpse fell to the ground with a dull thud, an extremely dusty clatter.

When those black-clothed killers saw this strange scene, they all stopped and looked at Xiao Chen in a daze.

What the hell is going on?!

At the moment when the atmosphere was quite weird, more than a dozen figures swished in the sky, shooting through the heads of each black-clothed person quickly and accurately, just like the death of the snake, all of them were pierced through the back of the head, bursting out of a cloud of blood.

In the air, the smell of blood was everywhere, and at this moment, even the slaves around Xiao Chen were afraid, and they immediately looked around vigilantly, for fear that another light would appear and take their lives.

The hearts of the people were panicked, and everyone was frightened by the light of death in the dark.

"What the hell is going on, is there a ghost?"

"There must be other masters in the secret, it's just hard to guard. ”

"I didn't see anyone at all, what kind of cultivation is this, it's terrifying. ”

Xiao Chen also frowned, but there was no fear in his heart, no matter who the person who secretly made the move, judging from the situation of the other party's shot, it was obvious that he was helping him.

"Who is helping me?" Xiao Chen was also puzzled.

Suddenly, as if he felt something, Xiao Chen suddenly raised his head and looked at the moonlight in the distance, only to see that on a roof in the distance, a graceful figure appeared, under the shroud of the moonlight, he couldn't see the person's face clearly, but the figure was graceful, the light veil was flying, and it was obviously a bewitching woman.

Xiao Chen looked at the figure in surprise, and he could feel that the woman in the moonlight was also looking at him.

The other people around quickly noticed the figure in the moonlight, and they couldn't help but exclaim.

"What kind of person is that, is it a fairy?"

Xiao Chen stared blankly at the figure, vaguely seemed to have a familiar feeling, but it was not very familiar, but he seemed to have a kind feeling of affection for the woman.

"Who the hell is she?" Xiao Chen frowned.

It's a pity that he is secretly hurting now, otherwise he would have chased after him immediately to see who the woman really was.

After a long time, the woman seemed to reluctantly glance at the place where Xiao Chen was, and then flew away, the light veil spread across the moonlight, and gradually disappeared into the moonlight.

"It's really a fairy, it must be the moon goddess who has appeared. In the crowd of cold eyes, some people immediately bowed to the moonlight, and gradually more and more people knelt down, obviously thinking that the woman was a fairy.

After a long time, Xiao Chen shook his head, since he couldn't think of who it was, he didn't think about it anymore, and looked up at the battlefield, after this battle, the martial king on his side has changed from the original twenty-six people to the current fourteen people, nearly half of them were killed and wounded, but the surviving martial artists are all good cultivators.

As for the black-clothed men on the side of the Athletic Palace, except for the one or two people who fled after being seriously injured earlier, all the rest were killed.

"Master, are you alright? Dong Shaobao hurriedly walked over and helped Xiao Chen up.

Xiao Chen shook his head, tonight's battle has announced a complete break with the Athletic Palace, and there will be another hostile force in the days to come, so he will be more careful.

Back in the inn, he asked those martial kings to return to the maze mirror to recuperate, and he also went back to the house to recuperate.

......

Bang......

"Rice buckets, all of them are rice buckets, so many people went, not only did they not kill the target, but on the contrary, you were almost wiped out, saying, what use do I want you to have?!"

Athletic Palace, in a palace in the depths, Boss Chang slapped the table in anger and blamed the past one by one.

His Royal Highness knelt with three injured warriors, bowing their heads, facing Chang Lao and getting angry, they didn't even dare to come out.

And sitting in a seat next to Chang Lao, there is also a young martial artist with a unique aura, and he is not affected by Chang Lao at all.

He was white-haired, arrogant, and exuded an air of contempt for the world.

He's the Demon Lord.

The Demon Lord glanced at the three martial artists kneeling below, his face was as cold as ice, and at the same time he looked at Chang Lao and said, "I said, that scorpion is my opponent, why do you still send someone to kill him?"

As he spoke, a coercion exuded from the Demon Lord's body, pressing on Chang Lao.

Chang Lao's status in the Competitive Palace is not low, and he controls a lot of martial artists, but the Demon Lord actually dares to question him, which shows that the Demon King's status in the Competitive Palace is only higher than Chang Lao.

Although Chang Lao was angry, he couldn't ignore the words of the Demon Lord, turned around and took a deep breath, and then said with a little humility: "Back to the deputy palace master, these are all ordered by the palace master." The palace master said that the scorpion was a powerful cultivator, and he also betrayed the Athletic Palace, so in order to prevent him from sabotaging the Athletic Palace's plan, he sent someone to kill him. ”

If Xiao Chen was here at the moment, he would be surprised.

He had already guessed that the Demon Lord had something to do with the Athletic Palace, but he didn't expect that the Demon Lord's status in the Athletic Palace was so high, and he turned out to be the position of the deputy palace master, which could really be said to be above ten thousand people under one person.

It can be seen that the Athletic Palace also attaches great importance to the Demon Lord.

The Demon Monarch frowned slightly, quite dissatisfied with this answer, only to see him stand up casually, but his power was even stronger, and said: "I will say it again now, the scorpion is my favorite opponent, and his life can only be concluded by me, from now on, you are not allowed to make another move." By the way, bring my words to the palace master as well!"

After saying that, the Demon Lord strode out of the palace regardless of Chang Lao's reaction.

Chang Lao frowned slightly, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, afraid that if he didn't kill Xiao Chen, sooner or later he would ruin the plan of the Athletic Palace.

At this moment, Chang Lao's body suddenly shook, and he felt a huge coercion enveloping the entire hall, and a majestic voice suddenly sounded in the hall.

"This matter is over, since the deputy palace master is interested, let him solve it. ”

"It's the palace master!" Chang Lao heard this, and hurriedly knelt on the ground in fear, a trace of horror flashed in his eyes, and then glanced at the three black-clothed warriors kneeling below, he lowered his head and asked humbly: "Then I don't know what to do with the three of them?"

"Since they can't complete their mission, there's no need to live. ”

After saying this, the coercion disappeared without a trace.

"Yes, I know what to do. Chang Lao bowed, then stood up again, his eyes swept coldly towards the three kneeling warriors, without the slightest emotion.

The three warriors also heard the verdict, and immediately kowtowed in fright, begging for mercy: "Palace Master, don't, please spare our lives, Palace Master, we will definitely work hard to complete the task next time, please spare us." Ever-old, ever-old, please let us go, ever-old......"

"I'm sorry, no one can disobey the palace master's words, since the palace master let you die, you have to die. ”

As he spoke, a fine light burst out from the bottom of Chang Lao's eyes, and the killing intent flashed.

The three black-clothed warriors suddenly stiffened all over their bodies, their bodies twitched straight, their hands pinched their necks, and they struggled for a long time and fell to the ground, dying very strangely.

After looking at the corpses of the three people, Chang Lao's eyes returned to normal, glanced at the corpses of the three people coldly, snorted coldly, and then left the palace.

This is the effect of the pill that Chang Lao asked Xiao Chen and them to take.

Spiritual imprints.

The next day, the street was noisy early in the morning, and many warriors downstairs had gathered in twos and threes, all discussing the major events that happened yesterday.

"Have you heard, the Athletic Palace opened this morning, collected all the popular figures of this Holy Martial Conference, and made a detailed introduction, and opened the market. A thin warrior shouted excitedly.

The people around responded one after another, "Of course we all know about such a big thing, I heard that the number one is the Demon Lord." The odds are 20 to 1, which is a big favorite. ”

"The second in line seems to be Lei Zhen of the Lei family, the successor of the Thunder God Martial Dao, is also very eye-catching, and many people are optimistic about him. ”

"There is also Jing Chuanxiu of Zhenwu Pagoda, tied for second, this person's whereabouts are quite mysterious, I heard that he has been in Zhongdu for a long time, but few people have seen him at all, and this person's voice is also very high. ”

"The next is the night star of the Ye family, it is rumored that this person's cultivation is no less than that of the martial god heir, and it is very promising to win the qualification to enter the Wanhuang Gate this time, and there are many people who buy him to win. ”

"There is also the palace Feixue of the palace family, which is pouring into the country in the early morning, and the cultivation is superb, and it is even more popular. ”

“......”

Everyone's attention revolved around the bodies of the super families of the major sects, and a dozen geniuses were revealed in a row, all of whom were very popular candidates in this Holy Martial Conference.

"By the way, there is also a Wan Xingchen, that is, the guy who fought with the Demon Lord yesterday and fought with Lei Zhen at night, I heard that his stakes are even higher and scary, one hundred losses, it is very likely to become the dark horse of this big competition. Someone suddenly shouted out Xiao Chen's fake name.

As soon as these words came out, all the chatters downstairs suddenly shifted to Xiao Chen.

"I heard that this person is the descendant of the Heavenly Martial God, and his strength is quite terrifying, otherwise how could he be indistinguishable from the Demon Lord Lei Zhen?"

"No, I heard that this person is a genius of the heavens, and his cultivation is superb, although he is not a descendant of the Martial God, but he is already capable of suppressing the descendants of the four great Martial Gods. ”

"And, isn't it so powerful, blow it!"

The following discussion is becoming more and more exaggerated, causing many people to look at each other.

The people of Tianyunmen listened to their discussion, and couldn't help but look at each other and smile bitterly, and said, "It seems that the seniors who helped us that time are likely to be our biggest opponents in this big competition." ”

Jian Yi and Long Yi and the others were speechless.

Only Jialan is very calm in her heart, thinking that all this is a normal thing.
