Late at night, except for the sound of the waves, there is no other superfluous sound on the seaside outside Gucheng City, the moonlight sprinkled on the sea is not as sparkling as people imagined, but like a layer of mist, shrouding the whole sea, in the fog of the night, occasionally a few huge Gu birds fly quickly in the sky, stiff wings fluttering, blowing gusts of night wind, like a solidified dark splash of ink, directly towards the sea.

The three embarrassed high-ranking knights climbed over the small hillside next to the Gu God Temple, and ran towards the bottom of the hillside, the night was thick, the fog was rising, and the dark clouds obscured the moonlight from time to time, in this darkness, they couldn't see each other's faces.

The looming moonlight, at this special time, smeared a trace of coolness on the land of the Gu God Temple, and this coolness was a message of death.

"What's wrong? That powerful and evil thought appeared for a short time, and then disappeared immediately? The Lotus Lantern Knight asked suspiciously, her hand kept changing gestures, and the lotus lantern under her feet also flickered and dimmed, as if she was searching for the traces of the Gu Demon.

"yes, why did it suddenly disappear? Are we safe? The Kill Knight immediately summoned his mount, and a blood-red bat suddenly appeared in the night sky, and the Kill Knight did not hesitate, and immediately jumped up, stood on the bat's back, and carefully watched the changes around him.

"Safety? Hey, that's impossible. The Yin Sting Knight let out a deep voice, and he then laughed, "It's absolutely impossible to be safe, how could that bloodthirsty Gu Demon let us go?" If you want me to say, he just deliberately restrained his breath, maybe he is watching us near us at the moment! ”

"That's scary." The Killing Knight shuddered, and let out a "hiss" sound from his mouth, and couldn't help but feel a layer of goosebumps unconsciously on his arm.

"Hahaha, you guys really guessed it right!" A man's deep voice came from behind them, and in an instant, in the originally quiet night, energy ripples continued to spread, and in the void, a tall figure gradually emerged.

A pair of crimson pupils, flashing crimson in the night, shining, the lion's tail was raised high, like a strong whip, his tiger's head, proudly raised high, four strong and sturdy arms, green tendons were fully displayed, and the huge wings of the eagle behind him kept fanning in the night sky, blowing gusts of hurricanes.

"Gu Demon!" The three of them turned their heads suddenly, their eyes all revealed fear, and the Yin Sting Knight forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, and took a step forward, as if to give himself courage, he deliberately raised the decibels, and asked loudly, "What do you want?" ”

"Hahaha, what do you say?" The Gu Demon sneered, in the dark night, his smile looked hideous and terrifying, the Lotus Lantern Knight and the Killing Knight saw this, they both retreated behind them a little timidly, slowly moving their steps, that powerful momentum was like a mountain pressing down, making them feel extremely uncomfortable.

"What, scared? Want to go? The Gu Demon sneered, and the movements of the Lotus Lantern Knight and the Killing Knight were all seen by him one by one.

"Who wants to escape...... Haha, I'll kill whoever first! With a wave of the Gu Demon wings, two violent hurricanes suddenly blew up, and an invisible energy ripple suddenly appeared from the void, slowly vibrating, the Lotus Lantern Knight and the Killing Knight fell to the ground under the influence of this majestic energy ripple, and the two of them covered their chests at the same time, feeling dizzy, and a wave of nausea in their chests came over.

"What a powerful spiritual power...... Yin Sting Knight couldn't help but take a step back, covering his chest, cold sweat flowed from his forehead, and before he could fight, he actually felt such a strong pressure, which showed that the spiritual power of the two sides was not at the same level at all.

"I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you!" I don't know when the Yin Sting Knight suddenly had a poisoned dagger in his hand, but the Lotus Lantern Knight on the side reminded in a low voice: "Don't go over, you are not his opponent." ”

"What's the matter, are you in a hurry to come up and die? Actually, don't be afraid, I will give you a chance so that you can live. The Gu Demon smiled coldly.

"What? Are you telling the truth? The Killing Knight looked up, his frightened eyes revealing a hint of suspicion. Yes, it's just a little bit of ...... Well, a small price. The Gu Demon smiled coldly, the corners of his mouth were pulled up at a very strange angle, but it looked uglier than crying.

"A small price?" The Killing Knight asked, confused.

"Yes, a small price, that's what I want you three to ...... Well, noble knights? Hahaha, that's what I said, I want you three noble knights to compete with each other to see who is qualified to survive. The Gu Demon suddenly burst out laughing, revealing a hint of madness.

"Bastard......" The Stinging Knight couldn't help but scold.

"You want us to kill each other? Haha, go dream! The Yin Sting Knight held the dagger in his hand and sneered, ignoring the powerful spiritual power of the Gu Demon.

"Haha, it's not me who made you kill each other, it's your city lord! Have you forgotten how you became a knight? The Gu Demon sneered.

The three knights' faces suddenly turned gloomy, and the Gu Demon's words were like a cold dagger, piercing into the deepest part of their hearts!

"Remember, how did you become a knight? Or rather, how did you survive? In the city lord's mansion, how many crimes and evil deeds were covered? Hehe, I can see that the resentful spirits there are boiling! The Gu Demon laughed and continued, "Do you remember? You so-called knights, you have killed the lives of many of your weaker comrades, even your own relatives and brothers and sisters, so that you can sit in your current position! ”、

The sea breeze was blowing, the night was suddenly silent, and the three knights clenched their hands into fists, but none of them retorted.

Perhaps on this dark night, they remembered the blood that had penetrated the cold stone pavement in the City Lord's Mansion many years ago......

Knights have no relatives and partners, and the knights of Gu City only need to obey the city lord unconditionally, no matter whether it is right or wrong, there is no blood relationship......

Nothing, there was nothing, just orders from the city lord.

They thought they had forgotten, but deep down, this wound that had healed was torn open by this Gu demon tonight and exposed to the night.
