Vol. 1 Hades' Wrath Chapter 1 Blazing Killing Machine Chapter 38 Sword [I]
Tianzhu is the largest of the three kingdoms and has a large population, so on the fiftieth birthday of His Majesty the Emperor, there will naturally be no shortage of people.
There is still one day left until the birthday.
However, the entire Wanhuang City is full of bustling people, and the streets are full of traffic, and there is an endless stream of business travelers.
However, everyone also clearly felt that from this day on, Wanhuang City entered the city to investigate more strictly, and the number of patrol troops during the day also increased significantly, and many people thought that it was probably because there were more people picking quarrels and provoking trouble in the past few days, so they strengthened public security.
What they didn't know was that quietly, one after another secret sentinels were set up in various parts of the city, and those that had been abandoned for a long time were also reactivated, and one after another secretly cultivated masters of the True Source Realm ranging from one to three heavens were in place. After this time, although it is still impossible to monitor the whole city, it has achieved the extreme.
"Your Highness, the strength of the whole city has increased fivefold, and even the capital has sent a thousand guards to patrol the city. ”
In a certain garden in the palace, a person reported to Nie Zou, and emphasized all the detailed assignments and locations as much as possible.
After listening, Nie Zou nodded, but the solemnity in his expression did not decrease at all, "With the Janissaries joining, it shouldn't be a big problem to deploy the defense, but ...... I'm curious, why is there no movement on Yun Jianhou's side?"
"Back to His Royal Highness, Marquis Chen has been closed for the past few days, saying that he is in retreat, and many people speculate that he is probably going to break through the Nine Heavens level. ”
Yun Jianhou's name is Chen Yunzui, he is one of the four great martial marquis of the Tianzhu Kingdom, his strength is outstanding, he is highly sought after by people in the rivers and lakes, and he is also highly appreciated by the emperor.
"Oh?" Nie Zou raised his eyebrows slightly, "Very good, very good! If he can get out of the customs before his birthday, then the safety of his father will be another guarantee!"
"Your Highness said yes. The man bowed his head and bowed slightly, "By the way, Your Highness, the construction of the Pingyunwu Terrace has been completed, and someone has already gone to inspect it, why don't you also take a look?"
"Pingyun Wutai...... It's for the New Metaverse Martial Arts Conference, right?"
"Back to Your Highness, exactly. ”
Nie Zou groaned slightly, "It's up to you." ”
"Your Highness, please!" the man immediately stepped aside and stretched out his hand to please. As Nie Zou strode out, the man followed behind him unhurriedly, keeping the same pace as His Highness's pace.
At the time of half the incense, the two came to a forbidden place outside the palace, which was a huge square, spanning two thousand meters, in the shape of a circle, around the square, there were nine dragon stone pillars as thick as ten people hugging each other, as high as ten zhang, like the pillar of optimus, which looked domineering and quite magnificent.
Directly east of the square are lined with several high seats, which are obviously the seats of the royal family and nobles, and around, there are also seats in a circle of ten circles, which are enough to accommodate nearly 10,000 people.
In the center of the recess of the square, there is a circular gray arena, with a radius of 200 meters, and there are long stone steps on both sides for people to go up, which is nearly 100 meters away from the nearest circle of seats, and the arena is all paved with gray stone, and the hardness is close to steel.
"What does Your Highness think?" asked the attendant on the side.
Nie Zou nodded with satisfaction, and couldn't help but praise: "Yes, magnificent, simple and exquisite, it is enough to show the prestige of my heaven and country!"
"But ......," Nie Zou showed a hint of pity again, "the name Pingyun Wutai is not quite appropriate. ”
"Huh...... His Royal Highness didn't know that the name of this Pingyun Wutai was taken by the Holy Lord himself. ”
"Father's name?" Nie Zou was a little surprised, "Why did Father choose such an unworthy name?"
"Naturally, there is a deep meaning. The entourage smiled, "This Pingyun is actually just talking about the martial platform, Your Highness looks at this martial platform, it is as wide as the white clouds in the sky, and then you look at the stone steps that go up layer by layer, a total of nine steps, after the nine steps, it is the seat of the saint, so look at it, how does Your Highness feel?"
"Wu is a flat cloud, and the emperor is a Lingyun. Nie Zou's eyes flickered.
This is to say, no matter how prosperous your martial arts are, in my great country, you can only level the clouds at most, but my imperial power can break through the clouds and rise above the clouds.
At this moment, Nie Zou felt that his father's methods were a little clever, no wonder he had ascended the throne as the emperor at the age of twenty, so compared to this, the brains of his three highnesses were far behind.
Nie Zou retracted his gaze and turned to look at the sword-eyed retinue, "Mu Gu, you have been with me for the longest time, and you are the only one under my command who knows me best." ”
Mu Gu bowed, lightly arched his hand, and said with a smile: "Being able to follow the Three Highnesses and become the arms of the Three Highnesses is the greatest wish of Mu Gu's life. ”
Nie Zou nodded, and he asked worriedly: "Then in your opinion, should I do it or not?"
Mu Gu pondered for a moment and said: "Back to Your Highness, since the founding of the Tianzhu Kingdom, the kings of all dynasties have had the old habit of holding a birthday every ten years, and I think that this birthday should not be stopped. ”
"Well, go on. ”
"On this birthday, although there will be assassins to assassinate the saint, but according to your orders, the defense of the city is already impermeable, as long as the other party dares to make a move, we will definitely be able to quickly seize it, this is a good opportunity to find the clue of the Blazing Fire Temple, and the opportunity cannot be missed. ”
After listening to Mu Gu's words, Nie Zou pondered for a long time, and said, "I hope so......"
He remembered something again, raised his eyes and asked, "Have you counted those missing people?"
"It's being counted, but the estimate has exceeded ...... Three thousand. Mugu's voice was a little heavy.
Nie Zou gritted his teeth, this number was too huge, so many people died innocently, and there were no bones left, which made him can't help but be resentful, and he hated the Blazing Fire Hall to the extreme.
"One day later, on the day of my birthday, I want to see who dares to slaughter my people and teach him to regret for life!" Nie Zou clenched his fists, exuding the aura of the Seven Heavens of the True Source Realm, as if he was also a master.
Mu Gu looked at Nie Zou respectfully, and it was precisely because he fell in love with Nie Zou's rare and valuable quality of cherishing his family and country that he willingly followed him.
At the same time, at the residence of the thirteenth princess, Nie Yixin hugged her knees and squatted on the stone steps, she glanced at the side, Zi Liangyun, who was supposed to sit here with her in a daze, was nowhere to be found.
She propped her head and murmured worriedly: "Sister Zi, Sister Lei, don't have anything to do, if you ......"
"Your Highness Princess, Lord Bloodservant is back!" said a lovely maid running in, panting.
Nie Yixin pinched the little maid's red face, squatted down again, and said sullenly: "What a fuss, I thought it was Sister Zi who came back." ”
"That's right...... You go and tell him and ask him to help find Sister Zi and them. ”
The little maid ran out in response, and after a while, she ran back again, her hands supporting her knees, and her little red face said helplessly: "Lord Blood Servant is gone again, I don't know where I went!"
"What? How long has it been?" Nie Yixin's eyes were on fire, "This blood maple, it's best not to come back again! I'll go and sue the third brother later, hum!"
Nie Yixin's four close attendants were all chosen by Nie Zou for her, so she naturally wanted to find Nie Zou to complain.
The little maidservant carefully persuaded: "Princess, His Royal Highness is already busy enough, you better not make trouble." ”
Nie Yixin's eyes widened, "Am I making trouble?" Okay, Xiu'er, you're really going against the sky, punish you for eating all my dinner, fat to death!"
Xiu'er chuckled, knowing that Nie Yixin was not angry at all, she stepped forward and shook the princess's arm, and said with a smile: "Princess, you can just take a bite of food, I just asked the imperial chef to make a delicious snack!"
Nie Yixin hugged her knees, buried her head between her legs, shook it, and said in a muffled voice: "Don't eat, don't eat, don't eat......"
Xiu'er sighed, and also squatted down, bored with Nie Yixin in a daze.
When night comes, the city is full of lights.
Groups of black-scaled guards patrolled by, and everyone avoided them.
After the guards patrolled over, in the inn on the side, a middle-aged man ripped off his face, revealing a woman's face...... The Lord of the Blazing Palace.
Leng Yao changed her dress, put on a white brocade robe, came to the window, looked at the long lights on the street, listened to the noise of the street, and gradually showed a sneer in her eyes.
"A day later, the great gift of my Longyang Kingdom will be given to you. Nie Junhe, you will definitely like it. ”
......
The night wind was howling, Xiao Yuchen's lips had been blown white and cracked by the wind, and blood seeped out of the cracked lips. The pain in the abdomen was worse each time because of the violent jolting.
He gritted his teeth and persisted, his face full of determination.
Abandon...... No way!
This conspiracy, he absolutely wants to stop it!
......
The moon sets and the sun rises, and another day arrives, and on December 2nd, time is passing indefinitely.
At dawn, countless figures woke up from their trances.
At noon, the blazing sun was inconspicuous under the invasion of the cold wind, and basically all the people in the city wore a few more clothes.
In the evening, the excitement of the city is still unabated, the number of people in the city has increased, under the scene of thousands of lights, many people can not be calm in their hearts, and many people can also feel the horror and murder that lurks in the glory of the city.
On this night, the wind does not blow, the moon is unknown, and the stars do not shine.
It was silent, pitch black, as if the whole earth had fallen into a deep sleep.
The huge Wanhuang City was more like a dormant ancient beast, emitting a low roar that only a few people could hear.
All of them, are waiting.
In the depths of the palace, General Nie Junhe, who was dressed in a golden imperial robe, looked at a four-foot-long golden sword box in his hand, his hand slowly stroked the sword box, and there was a trace of coldness, and his hand touched the middle of the sword box, he gently opened the clasp of the sword box, and opened the sword box, revealing a golden sheath long sword inside.
Scold!
With a buzz, the long sword was unsheathed, and Nie Junhe held the sword in front of his chest, staring at the sharp side blade, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Old man, tomorrow, don't lose your prestige!"
