Chapter 416: The Basement
Ye Ye ignored the Zhu Heizi behind him, but focused his attention on the ruins in front of him. This ruin is left over from the previous battle of a group of strong men in the ancient city of Longjiang, because there are several similar ruins in the ancient city of Longjiang, so the monks of the ancient city of Longjiang have long been accustomed to this.
But Ye Ye had already learned from Zhu Heizi that this ruin was the place where Zhu Longkong and the others were hiding, so he was very energetic when searching for the ruins. Soon, Ye Ye keenly noticed that there was something unusual on the ground in one corner of the ruins.
After he walked over with Zhu Heizi, he just stomped his foot slightly, and the ground in the corner of this ruin trembled. Soon, all the dirt and sand that had been deliberately piled up on it fell off, revealing a cyan slab that obscured the entrance to the basement.
Without Ye Ye's instructions, Zhu Heizi immediately walked over and lifted the cyan slate, and a huge hole was immediately revealed in front of the two of them.
Ye Ye walked into the cave with an expressionless face, and went down the stairs all the way, and soon came to a long and deep underground corridor. Hearing the sound of discussion coming from the depths of the corridor, Ye Ye showed a smile on his face, and then continued to walk inside with Zhu Heizi, intending to surprise Zhu Longkong and the others who were hiding in the basement.
In the basement, Zhu Longkong, the head of the Zhu family, Yang Liuzhi, the head of the Chongyun faction, and Qiu Wanzhong, the president of the Three Swords Society, who escaped from the prison of the City Lord's Mansion, were discussing their next move.
In front of the city lord's mansion to pursue, and after the four major families to surround it, although Zhu Longkong and others successfully escaped from the prison, but after being freed, life was not easy. Except for the occasional person who sent out to investigate the current situation in the ancient city of Longjiang, most of them had been hiding in this huge basement.
If it weren't for the fact that this basement was well arranged by Zhu Heizi and others, I'm afraid that some people would not be able to stand the dull atmosphere in the basement and risk their lives to leave here and return to the ground. Even so, most of the prisoners who escaped from the prison became more and more agitated, and the time for them to return to the surface was getting closer and closer.
"If you don't take everyone to escape from the ancient city of Longjiang, it is estimated that they will take the initiative to show up and fight Ye Ye and Xiao Ling!"
Zhu Longkong glanced at the expressions of everyone in the basement, the anxiety in his heart became more and more obvious, and his tone was full of worry.
Yang Liuzhi, the head of the Chongyun Sect, nodded approvingly, and his control over the masters of the Chongyun Sect was also close to the limit. If they still can't think of a way in the past few days, it is estimated that the disciples of the Chongyun Sect will never hear the order again, and they will rashly leave this place and part ways with him, the head of the sect.
At the beginning, he secretly discussed with Zhu Longkong, Qiu Wanzhong and others about rebelling against Mohai Ancient City, but he did not expect to be arrested by Shangguan Yu and others. Not only that, but all the masters of Longjiang Ancient City who had been with that plan were also imprisoned by Shangguan Yu and others one after another.
If it weren't for the fact that Zhu Heizi and the others happened to be not in the ancient city of Longjiang during that time, I'm afraid they wouldn't even have a chance to escape from the city lord's prison this time.
But even so, when Zhu Heizi was captured by Ye Ye and the other black-clothed monks who intercepted Ye Ye were all dead, there were few remnants of their forces left in the ancient city of Longjiang. In addition, the four major families carried out Ye Ye's order to kill them all, and at this time, only these people in the basement of the entire Longjiang Ancient City were their only remaining support.
If they can't lead these men in the basement to break out of the encirclement, I'm afraid that without Ye Ye and the masters of the four major families to find them, they will collapse internally, and it will be impossible to make a comeback.
"Instead of sitting and waiting, it's better to show up and fight with them! After all, there are not too many masters of the Desert Sea Alliance in the ancient city of Longjiang now, and our main enemies are only Xiao Ling and Wang Yun, who are dog thieves. Even if we pay some price, as long as we can break through with the most elite monks under our command, we will definitely have a chance to wash away today's shame in the future!"
Qiu Wanzhong, the president of the Three Swords Society, frowned, but then said to Zhu Longkong and Yang Liuzhi with a fierce face, with a hint of determination in his tone.
When Zhu Longkong and Yang Liuzhi heard this, they did not immediately refute Qiu Wanzhong's opinion. In fact, they are now at the end of their rope, and it is simply impossible to get out of the predicament without paying any price.
But before they could finally make up their minds, a strange man suddenly walked in through the entrance of the basement, and said lightly to them: "Actually, you don't have to be so pessimistic, I can give you a chance to make a comeback now, it depends on whether you can grasp it!"
Zhu Longkong, Yang Liuzhi and the others were taken aback, and hurriedly distanced themselves from the strange man, and looked at each other vigilantly and asked, "Who are you? How did you find the entrance to this basement?"
In the basement, the other monks who found Ye Ye entering also hurriedly gathered behind Zhu Longkong and the others, all of them clenched the swords in their hands, and seemed to be about to kill Ye Ye directly if they didn't agree with each other.
However, without waiting for Zhu Longkong and the others to continue to ask, Zhu Heizi, who was following behind Ye Ye, immediately attracted everyone's attention. Zhu Longkong was even more overjoyed when he saw Zhu Heizi, and immediately shouted happily at Zhu Heizi: "Heizi, why are you here? You weren't caught by Ye Ye and them..."
Speaking of this, Zhu Longkong seemed to have thought of something, turned to look at the strange man in front of him with a frightened expression, pointed at Ye Ye with trembling fingers and asked, "You, you are..."
Because Ye Ye had never been to the ancient city of Longjiang, and Zhu Longkong and the others had not seen Ye Ye's portrait, they did not recognize Ye Ye at the first time. But after Zhu Longkong woke up just now, everyone suddenly thought of an extremely terrifying possibility, so they all looked at Ye Ye in horror, waiting for his own answer.
"That's right, I'm Ye Ye, the current city lord of Longjiang Ancient City!
Ye Ye smiled and nodded to Zhu Longkong and the others, officially indicating his identity.
But Zhu Longkong and the others couldn't laugh at all, and they all looked at Ye Ye in front of them incredulously, and some of them even had a look of despair in their eyes.
"Zhu Heizi, you actually betrayed us!"
"We still trust you so much, and we are worried about your safety!"
"It's over, it's all over!"
When they learned that the person in front of them was Ye Ye, including Zhu Longkong and Yang Liuzhi and other Martial Monarch peak powerhouses, no one thought that they would be able to leave here alive today.
The people who had never doubted Zhu Heizi before all looked at Zhu Heizi behind Ye Ye with resentment on their faces at this time, their faces were full of pain, they never expected that Zhu Heizi would betray them. But at this point, they were more helpless and desperate for fate, and even the idea of rebelling against Ye Ye gradually disappeared.
After all, Ye Ye's strength has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, even if Zhu Longkong and the others have just escaped from the prison for a few days, they have already learned from the people who received them what happened to the Mohai Alliance later. Among them, the cultivation is the highest level of the peak of the Martial King, but there are not a few Martial King peak masters killed by Ye Ye, and they are powerless to fight against Ye Ye at all. After being blocked by Ye Ye at the exit of the basement, even Zhu Longkong and others, who had the strongest desire to survive, had completely given up hope of living.
"Master, do you want to shut them up now!"
Zhu Heizi, who was behind Ye Ye, saw that the monks behind Zhu Longkong were gossiping and making noise, so he immediately took the initiative to ask Ye Ye, and the eyes that looked at those monks were only endlessly cold.
In the basement, the people who were already angry at Zhu Heizi's betrayal saw this, and they were even more angry and scolded Zhu Heizi for being spineless. Even Zhu Longkong, who thought he was most familiar with Zhu Heizi, looked at Zhu Heizi with an incredible look in his eyes, as if he was the first time he knew him, he felt extremely unfamiliar to him.
"You're wrong to blame him! Zhu Heizi was controlled by my obedience talisman, and now he is no different from my servant! In fact, if he is willing to tell me where you are hiding, I won't have to waste a palm of the amulet, so you don't have to make a fuss!"
Ye Ye saw the shocked appearance of Zhu Longkong and the others, and just groaned for a moment before explaining to them the reason why Zhu Heizi became the way he is now. Not only that, after Ye Ye finished speaking, he actually pointed directly at Zhu Heizi's forehead.
Rumble!
I saw that the original invisible talisman on Zhu Heizi's forehead suddenly appeared, and it was windless and natural, and soon completely turned into ashes and disappeared without a trace.
And lost the control of the obedience talisman, Zhu Heizi's eyes immediately went into a trance, and the whole person still trembled sharply. Then he fell straight to the ground unconscious, like a dead man, and never moved again.
"What did you do to him?"
Seeing this, Zhu Longkong hurriedly stepped forward to inspect Zhu Heizi's situation, and saw that he was only unconscious and there was no major problem, so he finally breathed a sigh of relief, but his expression was still extremely nervous and asked Ye Ye.
Ye Ye just shrugged his shoulders and explained lightly to Zhu Longkong: "Don't worry, I just removed the obedience talisman and gave him a free body." When he wakes up, he will regain his consciousness again and become the vermilion black that you used to know!"
After hearing Ye Ye's words, Zhu Longkong finally completely relieved his heart, and the expressions of the other people in the basement also improved slightly. However, the eyes they looked at Ye Ye at this time were still terrifying, and they couldn't guess if Ye Ye had any other more unbelievable means. Even compared to being controlled by Ye Ye with some unknown means, they would prefer to be killed directly by Ye Ye, so that at least one hundred can be killed, and they don't have to be like Zhu Heizi just now!
In the case of Ye Ye's absolute advantage, not only did he not immediately kill them, but let Zhu Heizi go in front of them, and at the same time showed his kindness while shocking Zhu Longkong and others, which suddenly made Zhu Longkong and the others look at Ye Ye with complicated eyes.
