Chapter 353: Enemy Attack
On the desolate Gobi, Zhao Xuan wandered aimlessly alone, the trajectory of the evil god was erratic, and the location and time of several shots were not half regular, and it was very difficult to find him.
Zhao Xuan searched for a whole day, crossing thousands of miles of territory, but he didn't get anything.
When the sun sets, the whole earth is shrouded in orange-red sunset, the huge red sun hangs below the horizon, and only half of the red semicircle is left in the world, and the vast Gobi gives people a sense of desolation.
Zhao Xuan paused and watched the whole process of the setting sun, until the last trace of afterglow dissipated, and the whole world suddenly changed color.
The night is like a curtain, and the sky is full of stars.
"Let's go back."
Zhao Xuan glanced around, and as soon as the sunlight disappeared, the breeze on the entire Gobi seemed to become manic, and the whirring wind was loud and cold.
Finding the right direction, Zhao Xuan galloped towards the sky.
Huangsha City, an extremely important border town in the southwest frontier, is only two hundred kilometers away from the territory of the Wuhun Palace, and between the two is a flat Gobi, and a team of light horsemen can enter the territory of the Wuhun Hall in only two or three hours.
After the incident of the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Rex family, the empire spent a lot of effort to build here, not only the city was tripled, the defenders were also half more, and there was even a team of 100 royal soul masters stationed here.
Because it is a border town, the economy of Huangsha City is not developed, and the city gate is closed at night, Zhao Xuan crosses the wall of Huangsha City from a high altitude, and then falls into the city, and walks towards the city lord's mansion.
Walking to the front of the City Lord's Mansion, after the guards reported it, a middle-aged man in silver armor walked out, and he bowed his hand to Zhao Xuan from a distance.
"My lord, what have you learned from this trip?"
The middle-aged man's name is Xia Xing, the city lord of Huangsha City, a powerful Soul King-level powerhouse.
Looking at the young man in front of him, Xia Xing's eyes flickered, with doubts and distrust.
Although in the eyes of the empire, this matter is just a strange thing in the frontier, but as the city lord of Huangsha City, this matter is the top priority in addition to garrisoning.
He was glad that the Empire had sent someone to him, but he was disappointed when he saw such a young man who was excessively young.
Xia Xing thought to himself, maybe he was just perfunctory, because he didn't understand why the empire would send such a young man to deal with this matter, but since the letter said that he had full authority to handle it, he couldn't say anything more.
Zhao Xuan nodded, pinched his eyebrows with a little headache and said, "The harvest is there, the enemy's identity has been confirmed, but there is no trace of him." ”
A different color flashed in Xia Xing's eyes, and he glanced at Zhao Xuan with some suspicion, wondering if it was the answer that the young man was afraid of losing face, he had also gone to see the villages where the accident had happened, but he didn't find anything.
But after thinking about it, since the empire sent such a young man, maybe he really has the ability?
Xia Xing shook his head a little self-deprecatingly, afraid that he was thinking too much, but he still smiled and said to Zhao Xuan: "Your Excellency, please come in, I have arranged a place to live in the City Lord's Mansion, and I have also notified those guards, and the adults can come and go at will in the future." ”
"I'm in trouble, sir."
Zhao Xuan arched his hand to Xia Xing.
Castle Lord's Mansion, guest rooms.
The wind above the Gobi was mixed with yellow sand, and when the clothes were tidied up, the yellow sand rustled down from the cracks in the clothes, covering a thin layer on the ground.
Zhao Xuan smacked his lips as he looked at the yellow sand underground, and then went to the bed to sit cross-legged and cultivate, when he reached his current cultivation, whether he slept or not had no effect on him, but the night of the Gobi was full of yin qi, and his sense of the evil god's aura became weaker, so that the result was half the effort, making him feel that the gains outweighed the losses.
When he closed his eyes and cultivated, Zhao Xuan could clearly feel the excitement of the soul power in his body, after half a year of cultivation, Zhao Xuan's soul power had reached level sixty-nine, and the soul saint realm was in sight.
"Haole, keep cultivating!"
Calming down, Zhao Xuan didn't want to waste a minute or a second, and began to cultivate.
……
In the middle of the night, the Gobi was not quiet, and the wind was rushing.
On the walls of Huangsha City, the guards in charge of the city on duty shrunk their necks, held their spears in their elbows, and stretched their hands into their sleeves, and the whole person shrunk into a ball.
"Damn, it's spring, and the wind is still so cold."
He couldn't help but curse, and then looked up at the outside of the city, the stars in the sky were shining, the silver moon was shining, although his eyes could not see a scene and a thing as clearly as daytime, but he could still see the general shadow of a scene and an object in the distance.
"Haha, don't scold your kid, the shift will change in half an hour, and look at that soul master, isn't it better to guard here."
One of the soldiers beside him shook his head and smiled, and at the end of his words, he tilted his head in a certain direction and whispered.
The complaining soldier just now glanced over there, then looked around with a probing glance, and asked the soldier in front of him, "Hey, Lao Zhang, has something happened in the past year, I feel a little unpeaceful." ”
Obviously, the sudden increase in troops in Huangsha City made him, an insignificant soldier, also sense that something was wrong.
The soldier named Lao Zhang replied in a low voice: "You kid just reacted? I told you you don't want to spread the word. ”
The soldier's eyes lit up and he quickly nodded.
"This is what my nephew who studied at a high-level soul master academy told me. You know the blue electric Tyrannosaurus rex family, right? That's one of the top three sects, a giant in the soul master world! ”
"But last year, this sect suffered a catastrophe of annihilation, and it was almost wiped out! Even the Title Douluo has been destroyed! ”
"Hey, who's doing this?!"
The soldier gasped, stunned by the news, and then he seemed to think of something, and exclaimed: "It can't be the Martial Spirit Palace, right?" ”
Lao Zhang was startled and quickly covered his mouth, fortunately, it was windy at the moment, and no one noticed the conversation between the two.
He reprimanded with a cold face: "You kid, don't be surprised. ”
"Alright, alright, I got it. Did the Wuhun Hall do it? ”
The soldier nodded hurriedly, he was also frightened by this news, not to mention this kind of wealthy family in the soul master world, even an ordinary soul master is not something he can offend, but a wealthy family suddenly suffered a catastrophe, it is difficult for people to imagine the impact.
"Hehe, it seems to be true, I heard some news, saying that since the death of the previous pope, this pope is ambitious and strong, and the blue electric Tyrannosaurus rex family is friendly with the royal family, what do you say about the impact of this on the royal family?"
"A broken arm!"
"Yo, you're pretty smart." Lao Zhang glanced at the soldier in some surprise.
The soldier gave him a roll of his eyes: "I'm not a fool, but the ambition of the wolf son of the Martial Spirit Hall is indeed hateful." ”
"Who said it wasn't, I think the reputation of the Martial Spirit Hall was still good back then, but now all kinds of rumors are flying all over the sky, so the empire can't help but be unguarded."
“……”
Not far from them, a soul master couldn't help but shake his head as he listened to the conversation between the two, now even ordinary people know about these things?
With a sigh, he raised his head and continued to look at the empty Gobi, when suddenly he frowned and rubbed his eyes.
How do you feel like there's a dark shadow?
He walked quickly to the top of the wall, and then looked away, this time he really saw clearly, hundreds of black shadows on the Gobi in the distance were rushing towards Huangsha City.
As he looked, countless pairs of sharp eyes looked at him, he was startled, his whole body trembled uncontrollably, and after swallowing a mouthful of saliva, he yelled left and right: "Ring the alarm bell!" ”
On the Gobi, chaos arose.
