Chapter 154 [Top Ten Ranking Battle]
Several people dressed in the costumes of the moon worshippers followed, and one of them, an old minister with a gray beard and age spots on his face, whispered softly beside Zhao Chong as he walked, his words full of worry.
"Hmph, what about the Divine Continent Empire?" Zhao Chong snorted coldly, his eyes were full of cruelty, and he walked along the stone road towards the small pavilion, and many soldiers along the way knelt down and saluted him.
"But Your Majesty, Shenzhou has openly declared and called on all countries to boycott us, we should take precautions!" The old minister said in a hurry with some unwillingness.
"Boycott? What to boycott? Are you still worried that they will not be able to use our troops? Don't forget that there is a turbulent celestial stone in front of us. Do you think you only need money when you go to war? The mobilization of the army is like a waste of money and labor, if they want to make trouble, let them make trouble, and when we are strong enough, they will not have the courage to make trouble in front of us! ”
Zhao Chong stopped and glanced at the old minister with a cold look in his eyes, the latter was suddenly so frightened that he hurriedly bent over and didn't dare to breathe, seeing the ministers next to him like this, Zhao Chong exhaled and let go of his hand and walked towards the small attic in front of him alone.
When he came to this newly renovated exquisite little attic, the **** sound that originally came from the attic stopped abruptly, and Zhao Chong frowned and paused for a moment before pushing the door in.
Several black-clothed people in the room had put on their masks again and knelt respectfully on the ground, the ground was full of messy clothes, a strong hormonal smell lingered in the air, and a translucent screen could faintly see the carcasses of several women hiding behind from above.
"Have you had enough?" Zhao Chong's face was gloomy, and after looking around the room for a while, he asked the black-clothed people in front of him in a cold voice.
Zhao Chong's simple words made the few people kneeling in front of him beat faster, buried their heads lower, and no one dared to answer his question.
"Go and get Mu Feng back for me now!" Wait for a while, Zhao Zhong said in a deep voice, and as soon as he spoke, he didn't do any lingering, turned around and walked towards the door behind him, this kind of atmosphere and taste made him feel disgusting, if he didn't need to rely on this group of cultivators, I was afraid that he would have killed these black-clothed people here in public at this moment.
"But~" Just as Zhao Chong's front foot stepped out of the door, a man in black who was still kneeling on the ground and disheveled said in a worried voice.
"But what?" Zhao Chong stopped and turned his head to look at him with a gloomy face.
"But he is now in Qingxuanzong, where there are too many people, we can't have a chance to attack him." The man in black replied in a trembling voice.
"That's what you're supposed to think about, not me! Glory and wealth have raised you for so long, do you plan to spend all day here drinking and playing with women to repay me? All of you are out of the way, if Mu Feng can't bring it back, you don't have to come back, if you plan to go and understand, your relatives and family will accompany you on the road! ”
Zhao Chong's eyes were ruthless, trying his best to control the killing intent in his heart, now was the time to employ people, although he also knew that these people in front of him who were raised and even he, the new monarch of the moon worship, felt that it was difficult to make a difference, even if he went to Qingxuanzong, but now he could only use dead horses as live horse doctors, and he couldn't let those ordinary soldiers go to a place full of cultivators to arrest people, right?
"My subordinates have orders, what about the defense here?" Several black-clothed people were startled by Zhao Chong's coercion, and they were almost sober.
"If you can catch Mu Feng, it will be safe here. Go ahead and don't let me down! Zhao Zhong looked through the wooden window at the humble room on the opposite side, which was guarded by soldiers and had a dim oil lamp, and said coldly.
In front of the simple dilapidated house, Zhao Zhong motioned for the soldiers to open the lock, and in the room, a man with a messy face and a beard leaned against the corner of the room, and on the side there was only a bed with a thin bedding, and a woman with dull eyes lay motionless on it, and the burning candlesticks on the dusty table swayed from side to side because of the breeze from opening the door.
Zhao Zhong hurriedly stepped forward and protected the candle flame with his hand to prevent it from going out.
"Your Majesty is alright?" Zhao Chong looked at the man in the corner who was in tattered clothes and curled up in a cold and damp corner and asked coldly.
This person is Mu Feng's father, the former monarch of the moon worship, and the two of them who have been secluded here seem to have aged thirty years in just one year, and they have completely lost their former aura and dignity.
"The bones of your family are really hard, and if the queen is not healed, I am afraid that there will be only a few days left. Your Majesty needs to think clearly! ”
The man in front of the meeting ignored himself at all, Zhao Chong walked to the side of the bed instead of being angry, and when he looked at the once gorgeous queen on the bed, he was now a person with a haggard face and a flowery face, and the corners of his mouth were full of sarcasm.
"Still don't want to talk? It's okay, I'm here to tell you a piece of news. Your son is now in Qingxuanzong, you won't have heard of this place, right? That's one of the three great immortal sects! But unfortunately, this time he couldn't run away! ”
Zhao Chong waited for a moment, the down-and-out man in front of him still didn't even bother to look at him, a person's one-man show was almost sung, and he had no intention of continuing to waste his tongue here.
"Hehe, how can my son of Muyun be caught if you want to? If that were the case, you wouldn't have waited so long, don't worry, you don't have to arrest him, he'll be back. The moment he comes back is the moment your head hits the ground! ”
Hearing Zhao Chong talk about Mu Feng, Mu Yun stood up from the corner of the wall slowly, looked at him with firm eyes, and replied in a calm voice like water.
"Why do you have to force me? It was I who led the moon worship out of the predicament, and I will bring it to this continent in the future, why are you unwilling to help me? As long as you tell me whether the piece of jade on Mu Feng's neck is your family's heirloom ancient jade, where is your family's heirloom ancient jade, persuade Mu Feng to come back and hand over the jade to me, and I will return this throne, and then your family can sit on the entire moon worship! ”
Zhao Chong stepped forward, grabbed Mu Yun's shoulders with both hands, put away his indifferent and sarcastic smile before, and said solemnly towards him with an eager and sincere face.
"Zhao Chong, it seems that you are also old and confused, you have already told me several times if you deceive children like this. You covet my family's ancient jade so much, it seems that you also know it very well, the ancestral precepts cannot be violated, people can die, and jade cannot be lost. ”
"It's okay, I'll get it soon, and I'll reunite your family then!"
Zhao Chong snorted coldly, he couldn't know much about Mu Yun, he didn't eat soft and hard, he didn't know where the jade was before, he was still afraid, but now that he knew that Yu Zai Mufeng was on his body, the treatment of the two people in the seclusion had also dropped to the freezing point, and even the death row criminals in the prison ate better than them.
"Why didn't you kill both of them?" When Zhao Chong walked alone on a quiet path and returned to the palace, his shadow was dragged for a long time under the white moonlight, and at this moment, another shadow appeared strangely from his shadow.
"Kill? I'm not so stupid, what will you do? Zhao Zhong looked at the illusory shadow in front of him and replied coldly.
"Of course I will, I will die and live. Just like you now, your daughter is dead, so you have no worries and can let go and do things for me. The phantom's voice was hoarse, and he replied with a series of mechanical laughs.
"You can't give me any useful help at all, so please don't dictate what I'm doing! If it weren't for you, would my daughter have died? As soon as he heard this, Zhao Chong was shocked in his heart, Shishan's death has always been a pain he doesn't want to mention, if it weren't for the fear of this phantom in front of him, I'm afraid Zhao Chong would be eager to rush up and kill this person behind the scenes now.
"I don't want your daughter to trouble him, it's your daughter who wants to follow the people of Baihua Valley, and you agreed. Zhao Chong has something to say, but he can't talk nonsense! Besides, you can get to this far, don't you think I haven't helped you enough? The phantom was obviously displeased with Zhao Chong's attitude, and his voice became a lot lower.
"Then you should go and arrest him now, with your strength, it should be very simple to take a person from Qingxuanzong unconsciously, right?" Zhao Zhong sneered coldly.
"Hehe, who tried to stop me from interfering in the first place? Besides, do you think Qingxuanzong is really as weak as you heard? Even the old man couldn't escape the man's eyes and take anyone away under his nose. I still have a lot of things to do on my side, and I don't want to do too much, I hope you can do it yourself, don't forget who you are, and don't think you can play with us and applaud. ”
After the phantom sneered a few times, it gradually disappeared under Zhao Chong's gloomy gaze, and only Zhao Chong was left alone on the quiet road.
Daughter, why are you so stupid! What are the Three Great Immortal Sects? What is a temple? Why do you covet such a small amount of power!
Qingcheng outside Qingxuan Mountain, where nearly 100,000 people live, this small city located in the mountains is the descendant city of Qingxuanzong, hundreds of years of reproduction and reproduction have today's situation, almost all the young children in the city will be sent to Qingxuan Mountain a few miles away to be tested, those who are suitable for cultivation can stay on the mountain, and those who are not suitable will return to the city to make another living.
Such a city does not have a city lord's mansion under the rule of the empire, it is managed in an orderly manner with just a few simple ancestral teachings and the daily care of Qingxuanzong, and the noisy and cheerful crowds on both sides of the road, Mu Feng and his party of ten people walked straight along the wide and clean street towards the center of the city under the escort of hundreds of Qingxuanzong disciples.
Looking at the excited crowd on both sides, men, women and children, some dressed gorgeously, some dressed simply, some wearing cultivation robes, the people of the three sects and the nine streams mixed together just to wait for the last moment of this grand event, what made Mu Feng feel surprised was to look at the crowd on both sides, and although they were escorted by the disciples of Qingxuanzong, the avenue in front of them could be seen at a glance, and no one commanded these people to stand on both sides of the street very consciously, leaving the wide area in the middle to them.
"This is the top ten of this year? It's still these people! In the noisy crowd, a cultivator in his thirties looked at Mu Feng and the others who were walking on the street escorted by the disciples of Qingxuan Sect and said softly.
"You just came, you haven't seen the battle on the mountain before, these people are not simple."
"Cut, that one is called incompetence, this one is Zhuo Zichen, and that Yin Feng, Xia Ruolan, aren't they all the top ten of the last Immortals Meeting!"
"This is also the last time they are in the top ten, five years ago, and of course no one can beat them in five years. But these are also very interesting, so you can watch them with peace of mind! Several cultivators standing beside the man applauded Mu Feng and the others while chuckling and explaining to him.
"Five years ago and five years later, you're a full decade ahead of your peers!" Mu Feng, who happened to pass by them, heard their conversation clearly, and whispered a light smile to the incompetent others beside him.
Hearing Mu Feng's remarks, the incompetent and others looked at each other with a wry smile and shook their heads again and again, no one answered, and walked straight towards the huge round ring at the end of the street in front of them.
Today is the day when the Immortals will begin the top ten ranking battles, and the grand occasion is unprecedentedWhen Mu Feng stood on this huge circular ring with a diameter of 100 meters, and looked at the crowd gathered around the ring, he really felt what it meant to be in the limelight.
Ten people are all looking new and standing side by side in the center of the ring, hundreds of Qingxuanzong disciples under the circular ring stand every now and then, to prevent the fight in the ring from spreading to the crowd of spectators below, the ring is only two meters high, and those who stand a little closer can't see the ten people standing in the center of the ring, so that many people have moved stools and stones to step on.
And on the houses and pavilions around the ring, you can see people everywhere, and even on the eaves of some houses are sitting some curious people who have come all the way here to see the demeanor of the ten top ten of this group of immortals.
The voices of the people are boiling, just under such a crowd-eyed onlookers, it is enough to make people's hearts surging and blood boiling, directly opposite the ten people standing is an inn, the wooden balcony of the inn is Zhuang Bufan, Yun Bei, Jiang Li, and the four elders of Wan are also dressed up to attend, each of them is also followed by two serving disciples, Yin Kong and Yin Shi stood behind Yun Bei nearly two hundred meters away, squeezing their eyebrows at Mu Feng and Incompetence, Mu Feng could only smile bitterly and shake his head again and again, he couldn't return to them with white eyes at this time, right?
Qingcheng is crowded with people, and the surrounding area of the ring is even more impassable, and some people who want to see the style even climb to the roof of the house closer to the ring at a high price to watch the battle, which for a time made the residents of Qingcheng make a windfall.
Time passed minute by minute, when the needle shadow on the sundial on the edge of the ring was vertically parallel, and after Zhuang Bufan and the four people on the inn balcony in front of him smiled humbly behind each other, Zhuang Bufan waved one hand and a golden light was shot out from his fingertips.
