Chapter 304: Making a Decision
No, many of them reacted, finishing off the enemies in front of them with one move, and quickly attacking the surrounding enemies.
Hearing his voice, Mu Huabai, who originally wanted to shout, suddenly closed his mouth, no longer making a sound, it is best to be able to transmit sound through the air, what if he shouts what if he wakes people up from the illusion, although this assumption is unlikely, Mu Huabai still has a cautious attitude, and his eyes are sharp to stop the ministers around him who want to speak.
However, their advantage didn't last long, those eighth-order cultivators broke free from the illusion, and Zhao Jun, who was hiding in the corner, turned pale, snorted, bright red blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, and the formation he controlled began to crumble.
"Duh!" A trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes, he took out a few spirit crystals, grabbed them in his hands and began to absorb the spiritual energy in the spirit crystals, and as the spiritual energy of the spirit crystals poured into his body, the originally shaky formation began to become stable.
"Hmph!" one of the eighth-order cultivators seemed to be provoked, and with a cold snort, a powerful force erupted from his body, and a huge water curtain rushed up from behind him, turning into a column of water, surging towards the formation pattern in the sky above his head.
With a loud bang, the water column slammed into the formation, the formation shook violently, and the pale golden light flickered.
"Click-"
The formation shook violently, and it began to shatter from the place where it collided! The array disc in Zhao Jun's hand let out a mournful roar, trembled a few times, and its luster dimmed.
There was no time to scrap the formation with heartache, Zhao Jun's eyes widened suddenly, the cold hairs on his back exploded, and a cool breath rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and his scalp instantly became numb.
The movement was faster than he thought, and he stepped forward to the air at the fastest speed in his life, and then turned around, intending to retreat into the distance.
His reaction was quick, but the opponent's attack was faster, and before he could turn around, the huge impact smashed into his back, blasting him into the far wall, smashing a large hole.
"Zhao Jun!" Mu Huabai saw that the familiar figure was knocked away, and then he knew that the person who had just used the formation was Zhao Jun, and he was shocked and anxious.
As the formation in the air shattered, the situation in the field changed again.
"Don't resist, you can't escape. Zhou Sheng said coldly to Mu Huabai, because of the demons in his heart, he didn't break free from the formation just now, and he didn't break away from the environment until the formation was destroyed.
Thinking that he was defenseless in the formation just now, his face was silent, but his heart was extremely unsafe.
Mu Huabai's footsteps that originally wanted to move in the direction of Zhao Jun paused, his eyes turned to Zhou Sheng, I don't know why, he always felt a little depressed from this sentence.
However, looking at the other party's face that could not see joy and anger, he felt that it must be his own delusion, and just when he was preparing something, Zhou Sheng glanced at the three eighth-order cultivators and said, "You go and solve the people." ”
After hearing this, the three eighth-order cultivators immediately nodded and looked at Mu Huabai and the others.
Ai Zimo, who was not far away, noticed the movement here, and when he saw that one of the three eighth-order cultivators was about to make a move, his face immediately showed eagerness, and the attack in his hand couldn't help but be a little fiercer, but his body was fighting and approaching them at the fastest speed.
Seeing that the eighth-order monk walked towards them without saying a word, Mu Huabai's face stiffened slightly, and the ministers standing beside him trembled with fear from the power of the eighth-order monk.
"Quick, escort, escort!" a eunuch in a eunuch suit shouted in panic, trembling in front of Mu Huabai.
"Prime Minister Zhou, I salute you, Prime Minister, but your behavior is so disappointing, you shouldn't abandon the entire empire because of personal grudges. Sun Shangshu also stood up and condemned with a calm face, "You shouldn't talk about innocent people being involved." ”
Zhou Sheng's face was pale, and he didn't react to his words at all, and the same was true of the eighth-order monk, his eyelids didn't move, and he still walked towards them step by step, fifteen meters ...... 10 meters ...... Nine meters ......
The invisible power surrounded a group of people from all directions, the faint footsteps were like death approaching, with invisible oppression, breathing involuntarily increased, and the whole body was extremely stiff, the power of the eighth-order monk was too pressing.
Cold sweat dripped from his sideburns, and the fingers of Mu Huabai's hand hidden in his sleeve moved, and when there were still five meters left, his lips moved to want something, but there was nothing to say. His mind gradually went blank, as if an invisible hand was clamping his neck hard, suffocating and uncontrollable, as if he would die on the spot in the next second.
At this moment, a shout was heard in the distance:
"Zhou Sheng, if you want your son to live, let your people stop!"
These words made Mu Huabai and the ministers behind him tremble, their eyes lit up, and they woke up, and they also made Zhou Sheng frown slightly, and even the people who were still fighting were a little distracted at this time.
Everyone Qin Qin looked in the direction where the voice came from, dozens of meters away, five figures appeared on the cornices of the courtyard tower, standing quietly in the dim color, facing their direction, the evening breeze blew, blowing the corners of their clothes.
The five figures, one of them was Mu Huage, the king of Liaozhen Zhong, who was impersonated, and standing next to him was a man dressed in black, wearing a black scarf, and a man dressed as a man in black on Zhou Sheng's side, and at this time he was holding a man from a rich boy in his hand.
Behind them, there were two people standing, a man and a woman, not Mei Mengqiu and Hu Hai.
And the rich son who was kidnapped by the man in black is not Zhou Yan, the son of Prime Minister Zhou?!
At this time, Zhou Yan was choked by the neck of the man in black, looking at the scene on the ground, mainly looking at Zhou Sheng, his face was dull, his eyes were full of shock and horror, and his big mouth was enough to stuff two eggs.
Zhou Sheng's complexion changed slightly, a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes, and the aura around him became a lot colder, and he laughed angrily: "You think you can threaten me by doing this?"
His self-proclaimed name was directly changed to "me".
Mu Huabai reacted at this time, when the eighth-order monk stopped, and when the power on the other party's body was also put away, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, although the distance was still very close, so close that it seemed that the other party would be killed as long as he raised his hand, but at least the other party really stopped.
"That's the only bloodline of your Zhou family," Mu Huabai said meaningfully, looking at Zhou Sheng with deep meaning in his eyes.
Zhou Sheng's face was pale, but his eyes were dark and scary, and he threatened: "It's okay, it's enough to have you, the emperor, to accompany the funeral." ”
Without waiting for Mu Huabai to say anything, Mu Huage, who was not far away, shook the hem of his robe and sat leisurely on the cornice, a cruel smile hooked up at the corner of his mouth, and the voice of Yuan Li sounded in the audience: "Prime Minister, you seem to have forgotten, your son is in my hands Zheng "Do you think I will give up such a good hostage for him?"
Mu Huage looked at the two sides of the confrontation with mockery, although he didn't say the latter sentence, most of the people who heard it heard the meaning he wanted to express. Who doesn't know that his relationship with Mu Huabai is incompatible.
Of course, there are some people who don't pay attention to his words.
"Father......" Zhou Yan looked at Zhou Sheng in the field dumbfounded, completely stunned by the picture he saw, his brain was a mess, and he was confused, not Mu Huage's words, he had to forget that he was still being held hostage at this time.
"Deputy City Lord???" Mengmei Mengqiu's face changed greatly, and she covered her mouth and looked at the man beside Zhou Sheng and exclaimed.
"Why is the deputy city lord here?" Hu Hai also noticed the man, and his face showed surprise.
Meng Yang, who was holding Zhou's lifeline, moved his fingers, his face under the scarf changed slightly, pursed his lips, nothing, but quietly raised the vigilance in his heart, this vigilance was not only aimed at Yu Zhou Sheng and the others, but also at Mei Mengqiu, Hu Hai, and Mu Huage around him, as well as the enemies who might be hiding in the shadows.
The object of exclamation, Gao Xiang looked at the two of them, just shrugged his shoulders, and spread his hands again, which was regarded as a hello.
"Prime Minister, you have to think clearly, this king is your only concubine in his hands, are you sure you want to kill them all?" Mu Huage looked down at everyone from above, and he didn't look at anyone in the slightest.
"Do you think that the eighth-order monk is an ornament?" One of the remaining two eighth-order monks who had never moved, snorted coldly, and the powerful power belonging to the eighth-order monk pressed towards the five of them.
"Click-"
Meng Yang clasped Zhou Yan's neck with one hand, and broke one of Zhou Yan's arms without hesitation with the other, his movements were fast and neat, without dragging mud and water, and he was extremely ruthless.
"Ahh
When the power was pressing, he forcibly endured the power that pressed on his body like a mountain, and the strength of the hand holding Zhou Yan's neck involuntarily increased, making Zhou Yan scream miserably after his arm was broken, and at the same time, he was choked by his own saliva and coughed vigorously.
The Eighth Order Monk saw this. Under Zhou Sheng's faintly swept gaze, his breath stagnated, and he immediately retracted his might, not daring to act rashly.
Zhou Yan was agitated by the pain of his broken arm, and was pressed by the power of the eighth-order monk, his face turned pale, his whole body trembled, he completely came back to his senses, his eyes showed disbelief, he coughed hard because his neck was pinched, his face turned red, and he couldn't say a word.
"Even if you are an eighth-order cultivator, I can kill your young master the moment you kill me. Meng Yang said coldly, with a hint of warning and a hint of threat in his voice, and the force that clasped Zhou Yan's neck increased a lot again.
He wasn't lying, there was a distance between them, even if the eighth-order cultivator wanted to kill him, he could drag it out for a second, and this second was enough for him to break Zhou Yan's neck with a desperate net.
Zhou Sheng looked at each other with gloomy eyes, without saying a word, but the storm in his eyes intensified, and he asked coldly: "When is it?" or was it for another purpose from the beginning?"
He didn't know what he was talking about, but how could Meng Yang, who was questioned by him, not know what he meant, and replied, "From the beginning." ”
Furious in his heart, the expression on Zhou Sheng's face became more and more cold, ridiculous, he originally thought that the reason why the other party was wearing his side of the black clothes and scarf was just a disguise, but as soon as he saw the other party's action just now, he knew that he had miscalculated.
Where the other party is disguised, it is clearly his subordinates, and it is the kind that has always been used by him, that kind of method, but he specially spent his time to find and teach it to the people below, and used it to torture the enemy, which is something that only his trusted subordinates can learn.
But now, the other party learned his methods but used them to deal with his son, which is simply a shame for him, and he said with a hint of angry sarcasm: "Should the old man praise you for 'the means are really flirtatious'?!"
For a person who has been meticulous from the beginning, he has never discovered the identity of the other party's meticulous work, and he has reused the other party without suspicion!
Anger rolled in his chest, and a red light flickered in his eyes once more.
Meng Yang was silent and did not answer, it was not wise to provoke the other party in this situation.
The look in Zhou Sheng's eyes sank, and he forcibly suppressed the anger caused by the demons in his heart, knowing that now was not the time to dwell on this matter, he didn't dwell on this matter more, nor did he ask the other party who sent it.
Although the other party was masked, he couldn't see his face, and he didn't know who the other party was, but he knew Mei Mengqiu and Hu Hai beside the other party, and when he saw those two looks, he didn't have to guess and thought of who the other party was.
Zhou Sheng looked at Gao Xiang with a tense face, and said in his voice without a trace of emotion: "Deputy City Lord Gao, the people of Qingcheng kidnapped the dog, do they want to regret it?"
Gao Xiang touched the tip of his nose, he knew that Zhou Sheng, who looked like this, seemed to be calm, but in fact he was extremely angry.
But he was also aggrieved, he didn't expect that Zhou Yan, who had been taken away and hidden, was actually found and brought here, and the person who brought them here was none other than someone else, it happened to be someone from Qingcheng.
This is clearly anger, his own son is not good at himself, and his subordinates are spies, who is to blame? Gao Xiang slandered in his heart, showing a trace of helplessness on his face, and said to the three murderers in the northwest: "You have heard, what do you think?"
Mei Mengqiu and Hu Hai glanced at each other, and there was embarrassment in their eyes. Qingcheng is their hometown, and Qingcheng wants to compete with the Tanglin Empire, and it is impossible for them to help outsiders. But the reason why they came here was because Meng Yang wanted to help the Tanglin Empire.
They are loyal to Qingcheng, but they can't abandon their comrades!
"You two are just watching. Meng Yang was silent for a while, and directly made a decision for them.
"Scholar!" Mei Mengqiu Hu Hai Qin Qin shouted, but after they shouted, they didn't know what to do, help him betray Qingcheng, or help Qingcheng become his enemy?
Neither approach is what they want to see.
