Tiantang City.

The capital of the Jade Tang Empire, this is a large city that can be counted in the entire Tianxuan Continent.

The inhabitants of the capital, together with the surrounding areas, are enough for more than 8 million people.

The city is high and thick, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

At this moment, in this big city with millions of people, it was the mourning and joy everywhere, and as far as the eye could see, countless crowds of people from all directions gradually appeared, lined up in a long line, and walked towards the direction of the middle of Tiantang City.

Over there, it's Tiantang Square.

Tiantang Square is recognized as the largest square in the entire Tianxuan Continent and exists in the city!

In normal times, it was a huge training ground, but in special times, when it was open to the public, it was Tiantang Square.

At the beginning, His Majesty the Founding Emperor said a word.

"All the soldiers who train in this square now and in the future, even if they die in battle, will inevitably be guests of heaven!

As a result, Tiantang Square appeared. In fact, at the beginning, it was called "Heaven Square", but after a long time, it became Tiantang Square, and the original name "Wu'an City" gradually disappeared and became Tiantang City.

Countless crowds of people generally poured into Tiantang Square from all directions.

Everyone is respectful, or wearing white flowers, or wearing black veils around their arms, or carrying a bouquet of flowers, and incense and candles and other objects of worship are overwhelming.

Today is no ordinary memorial.

Instead, in the name of the whole country, to pay tribute to all the heroic souls who died in battle!

Especially the Nine Statues!

This mysterious name, this mysterious combination.

Nine mysterious heroes. No one knows what their last names are, or what they look like. However, they all know that these nine people are the top secret of the Jade Tang Empire, that is, the patron saints of the entire Jade Tang Empire.

Countless national battles, at critical moments, there are always nine figures. As long as the Nine Venerables appear, no matter how dangerous the war is, they can turn the tide of safety.

They are the guarantee of victory on the battlefield!

But last year, on the ninth day of March. This day, all the people of the Yutang Kingdom will not forget.

Because on that very day, they lost the nine!

Jiuzun led 800 heroes, and when he was on a secret mission, he was intercepted and killed in front of Tianxuan Cliff. Eight hundred and nine people, none of them survived.

This was supposed to be a top-secret mission, but for some reason, the news leaked...... For this reason, the Jade Tang Empire has been investigating for a year!

on the square.

Countless generals and countless veterans looked at the nine monuments standing tall and close together in the middle of Tiantang Square with tears in their eyes.

It's like nine people, still standing side by side.

When they were alive, they fought side by side, they rejoiced side by side, and now they are still together when they die.

In the crowd, a low choked voice rang out. The sound came from the northwest side of the square, where the remnants of the army gathered. Countless veterans of the rest of the battlefield, with disabilities, are all here, standing straight one by one!

Even the remnants of the army who had lost their legs still sat straight. In the face of their own heroes, benefactors, their respect from the heart!

In front of their eyes, there seemed to be the scene of the Nine Statues attacking the battle array, what a majestic and inspiring thing it was.

The earth dragon is turning, the earth is churning, the enemy soldiers are turning on their horses, it is the earth zun is exerting its might, the fire is rising in the sky, it is the fire zun is coming, the huge waves are rising in the sky, it is the water zun is moving.

The calm sky suddenly swelled with thunder and lightning...... It was Wind Venerable, Cloud Venerable, Lei Venerable and others who came to ...... at the same time

Nine!

On the nine monuments, there is a sentence.

All the people who came to the square looked at these words for a long time, and they were extremely sad.

The thick soil is boundless, and it rolls like a dragon!

Ruijin is in hand, and the heroes bow down!

The turbid waves are monstrous and rampant in the world. Water Zun.

Towering wood, mainstay. Muzun.

The flames rise and the battle is invincible. Fire Venerable.

Thunder roars in the sky, shocking the world. Lei Zun.

The blood of heroes, the mountains in dreams. Blood Venerable.

There is wind in the long sky, and the way of heaven is ruthless. Wind Venerable.

The heart of the Nine Venerables, the clouds of the sky. Genzun!

The names of the nine statues were carved on the stone tablet, and everyone seemed to see the nine masked men again, still standing proudly between the heavens and the earth, facing thousands of troops and horses, and calmly saying, "Come on!"

In front of each monument, there are countless people standing straight, holding their heads up, looking respectfully. Especially...... In front of the monument of Yunzun and Tuzun, the number of people is the largest!

Tuzun, the head of the nine, is the great honor.

Yun Zun, the tail of the Nine Venerables, is the Nine Masters think tank, the absolute core!

......

The sun rises slowly.

His Majesty the Emperor's Luan, surrounded by hundreds of civil and military officials, finally arrived. The ceremony officially began.

Yun Yang stood quietly in a corner.

"Childe, do you need me to come with you?"

"No, you don't. ”

"This ...... Your current ......"

"No, you don't. ”

"Yes. ”

Yun Yang refused Lao Mei to come with him.

Because he knows that when he stands here, he will inevitably lose his temper.

But he didn't want anyone alive to know his identity as the Nine Venerables!

Before avenging my brothers, what face will I have to declare my identity to the world?

Moreover, the enemy is so powerful, once the slightest rumor leaks, it will be regretted! Yun Yang does not dare to take the slightest risk.

He stood here quietly, looking at the nine stone tablets on the square with deep eyes, and in his eyes there was indescribable sourness and longing.

Brothers, I'm coming.

I've come to see you.

He seemed to be an invisible man.

In this darkness, he stood silently.

The smell of incense and candles permeates the world.

His Majesty's grief-stricken voice was reading the memorial message, and below it was a suppressed cry.

Yun Yang stood there from a distance, his body straight and his eyes deep.

People kept walking past him, but no one could notice that there was a big living person in the shadows.

He was like an incorporeal ghost.

The method of cloud concealment of the Nine Venerables.

He stood still, motionless. The wind howled, blowing his dark purple clothes, a sense of gloom, quietly diffused.

Night is falling.

The ceremony is long over.

Flowers everywhere.

The smell of incense and candles filled the sky; in front of the nine monuments, blood was dripping; it was the blood of Wu Wenyuan's remnants; the people had no mercy for these people, and even, after the execution was completed, countless angry people rushed up and smashed the corpses to pieces!

During the whole process, the old marshal Qiu Jianhan kept a gloomy face.

Because...... Just yesterday, Wu Wenyuan suddenly disappeared from the prison, and in the middle of the night, he was sent back again. Then, Wu Wenyuan's wife and mother disappeared......

These few things happened in a row that made the old marshal furious!

The military headquarters is heavily fortified, the prison is heavily guarded, and countless masters are hidden around, and there are continuous accidents unknowingly!

This is a ridiculous joke!

For this matter, the old marshal has changed the personnel in charge of the prison three times, and dozens of boards have been broken. But to no avail......

......

The crowd in the square left in twos and threes amid sobs of grief. The huge square slowly became empty.

Yun Yang remained still, his gaze far and deep.

Fight in this life, shroud in horse leather, may the brothers be happy in the next life, and be safe in the next life!

The Heroic Spirit is not far away, watch me act!

The evening breeze howled.

The entire Tiantang Square has been completely plunged into darkness.

Yun Yang stood here, his eyes closed, vaguely felt...... He is still in the queue of hundreds of thousands of comrades-in-arms. Around, there are still countless robes. It's so real. His brother is still talking and laughing loudly with himself......

The night breeze blew his hair, and his well-defined face, in the dark shadows of the night, looked like a well-carved statue, calm, but lonely, with an indescribable sadness and depression.

A low sobbing voice sounded, and from the front, a young woman in white, holding her little daughter tightly, walked weakly with tears on her face.

Beside her, there was an old man with a sad face and supported her.

She stumbled along, lost like a walking corpse. Excessive grief made her already weak body lose almost all its strength.

"Wang Zhuang, let's go home. ”

The young woman muttered, her eyes glazed over, it was a dead gray wood.

The young woman passed by Yun Yang's side and did not notice Yun Yang's existence, Yun Yang closed her eyes tightly and did not make any movement, but the muscles at the corners of her eyes twitched violently.

It was as if a deep grief had been torn apart.

The wife of General Wang Zhuang.

Yun Yang still remembers Wang Zhuang. A year ago, Wang Zhuang was newly married for two years, and his daughter had just turned one year old. But this time, he never came back.

Soldiers died fighting for the country, and they died without regrets. But, what about the wives and children, women and children at home?

It's been a year, and the Wang Zhuang family, who lost the breadwinner of the family, is now ...... How's it going?

The figure of the young woman gradually faded away behind Yun Yang.

Yun Yang sighed silently in his heart.

Immediately, Yun Yang frowned, as if he sensed that something was wrong. He suddenly opened his eyes, only to find that there were four figures sneakily following the young woman.

It was a few big men, staring at the weak young woman in front of them with coveted eyes, and in their eyes there was an unconcealed meaning of lewdness.

They were extremely careful to hide their bodies by the cover of night, and followed the young woman more than ten feet behind them without hurrying.

The next moment, he was about to walk past Yun Yang.

Yun Yang's originally wooden eyes suddenly flashed with a burst of murderous aura!

The four big men didn't know why at the same time, and they shivered excitedly.

It seemed that in the darkness, an evil spirit stared at them fiercely.

"This place is indeed a bit ...... evil," one of the big men muttered with goosebumps all over his body, a little frightened.

"That's it...... Let's go back quickly, there are indeed too many dead ghosts here...... Uncomfortable...... "Another man shrunk his neck.

Yun Yang's eyes were even colder, and he looked at it.

Too many dead ghosts?

Hmph, just this sentence is a capital offense!

"But Wang Zhuang is dead, he died well! This dead ghost has been dead for a year, and Lao Tzu has endured it for a year. Now after the memorial ceremony, it should be the limelight that has passed......" The big man led by him smiled lowly, full of schadenfreude.

"Yes, big brother, when this dead ghost is alive, this is not allowed, it is not allowed, so that the brothers are breathless, and in the end, he still can't die well, and he has become a lonely ghost...... Hey hey ......"

"Hmph, when Wang Zhuang was alive, we were bullied by him, and now, it should be the time for feng shui to take turns...... the big man led by him swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "I have to say that Wang Zhuang, the bastard's mother-in-law, looks like a sign of tightness...... Especially now that the crying and sad appearance is even more heartwarming, as well as the delicate little body...... Hey hey ......"

"Hey, hey, hey......" the other three let out lewd laughter.

The four of them walked past Yun Yang.

Yun Yang took a deep breath and stared at the square in the night, as if he could see that there were countless pairs of eyes, quietly looking at him.

In those eyes, there is a promise.

He nodded vigorously, pursed his thin lips tightly, and turned quietly, his dark purple coat fluttering, quietly following the thugs.

No matter what kind of world it is, there is always something dirty and filthy! Yun Yang's murderous intent in his heart has been monstrous. If that's the case, let me kill one clean!

The road became more and more desolate and remote.

Slowly walking towards the edge of Tiantang City, the surroundings became more and more gloomy.

The young woman unconsciously moved forward step by step, but she didn't think about where she was going now and where she should go......

If it weren't for someone's support, I'm afraid I would have fainted to the ground.

It's close.

There was a faint light in the distance, flickering faintly.

That's my home.

But...... Now that there is no husband's home, is it still a home? It's been a year, Wang Zhuang, are you underground, are you okay? If it weren't for taking care of my daughter, I would have gone to look for you......

I'm living like this alone, I'm so tired, you know?

Just as he was about to turn a corner of the alley, suddenly a strange laugh sounded behind him, like suddenly hearing the cry of an owl in the barren mountains and mountains.

"Yo...... Little lady, don't you want to go so fast......" An offensive voice said in a weird voice: "Turn around and let the master take a look...... Gee...... This figure...... It's ...... mesmerizing."

The young woman turned a deaf ear and walked forward.

The figure in front of him flickered, and the four big men were already holding their arms, blocking the road viciously, with a gloating smile on their faces.

"Yo...... I didn't see clearly in the night...... Isn't this General Wang Zhuang's wife......, Juan'er? No wonder it feels so seductive, hehe...... Yo...... Juan'er, you, you...... What's wrong with you? Why do you actually wear white flowers on your head? What's the matter? I heard that our majestic General Wang Zhuang has now become a dead ghost? That's a pity......

This is a very bad statement.

The two young women stopped.

The old man who was supporting her suddenly trembled with anger: "Wang Bao, what are you going to do?

Wang Bao, the big man who was leading the opposite side, smiled hesitantly: "Get out of the way, why should I get out of the way? When Wang Zhuang was alive, let Lao Tzu get out of the way, and Lao Tzu gave him a face, but now, ...... It's been a year since he became a ghost, and let Lao Tzu get out of the way?"

He laughed out loud and said strangely, "But...... I have to say...... Juan'er is dressed up like this...... It's really a different flavor, my crying eyes are swollen, and I feel distressed to death...... Juan'er, Wang Zhuang doesn't hurt you, my brother comes to hurt you..."

The old man stood in front of the young woman and said sharply: "Wang Bao, Juan'er's husband Wang Zhuang died for our Yutang Kingdom to fight, he defended his family and the country, and he forgot to die, he is a national hero." You are blessed by heroes to be able to settle down and work, and you have no conscience to speak like this?"

The big Han Wang Leopard smirked: "Hero? Haha, who told him to go to war? I didn't let him go! He didn't die for me, what kind of hero? It's all bullshit here for me!"

He laughed cruelly: "Wang Zhuang's dead ghost, when he is alive, let our brothers breathless, this is not okay, that is not allowed, Lao Tzu has long wanted to kill him, and now he is dead, just right! Hehe, he was a cow when he was alive, this Lao Tzu admitted, but now he has been dead for a year! He is dead, Lao Tzu is going to play with his wife, see if he can still come to beat me again, hahaha......"
