Chapter 248: Countermeasures
The strength of the two was originally equal, and even Suzaku had a slight advantage in the number of martial arts, but his old injuries were not healed, and he also added new injuries to the last attack on Wei Jiuli.
If it was enough for the other two Inverted Venerables, it was still obviously insufficient for the White Tiger Venerable, whose strength had recovered to its peak.
At first, the two could fight on par, but as time went on, Suzaku began to be pressed and beaten by each other.
When the sharp tiger claws struck again with the sound of the wind, this time Suzaku did not dodge, and several scars were scratched on the side of his body and half of his shoulder, and the person was also shot down by inertia, shooting into the ruins below like a cannonball, shaking the sky full of smoke and dust.
"Venerable!" The faces of the Suzaku people changed greatly, and they all got up to run over.
Seeing this, the people of the White Tiger Clan immediately rushed over under the leadership of the patriarch and blocked in front of them.
"It's still a fight, so please don't interfere with the two Venerables." The patriarch of the White Tiger Clan said coldly.
Several elders of the Vermilion Bird Clan immediately glared at him, and their faces turned blue with anger.
At this time, the White Tiger Venerable also fell to the ground, standing on the edge of the ruins that had been smashed out of a pit, looking at the Suzaku who was struggling slightly in the ruins, and was rarely embarrassed, "Do you want to continue?" If you admit defeat and surrender to the deity with your people, the deity can stop there. ”
Suzaku lifted half of his body with difficulty, looked up coldly at the other party's appearance of being high up and looking at the world, and gritted his teeth fiercely, "Dream!" ”
At this time, I don't know who suddenly shouted, "What are you Vermilion Birds, you dare to fight with our White Tiger Clan, you can't do anything about it, today you want to make Suzaku disappear completely, there is only one king in the Demon Domain!?" ”
As soon as the voice fell, it suddenly responded from all directions, and the next moment there was a continuous scream, followed by the clashing of weapons and the shouting of the crowd.
In an instant, the scene was a mess.
And the people of the Vermilion Bird Clan took the opportunity to rush to the middle of the ruins, but some of the people of the White Tiger Clan were provoked by the words of the previous person, and remembered the days when they were oppressed by the Suzaku before, so they moved directly by blocking it.
The Vermilion Bird Clan was also holding back a breath of anger, and this emotion was completely provoked, and they also drew their swords directly.
The field suddenly became even more chaotic, and almost most of the people were in a mess.
Everyone is a Jianghu person, not ischemic, not to mention that most of them are people in the devil's way, they follow what they want, and they are also more violent, once they are accidentally injured or angered, they don't care about sacrificing weapons and fighting.
Some of them were also accidentally swept in, but they were still more restrained and mainly retreated.
It's just that this will not be something they can retreat if they want to, you must know that this is the main city in the Demon Domain, the Demon City, or the center of the Demon City, and there is no shortage of backbones and masters in the Demon City who can come here.
Even those who are holding on to the ruined cauldron deliberately attack the righteous people, preparing with both hands, if they fail and throw their lives here, then they must also pull down the righteous people here, so that even if the four saints can take the demon palace, it will not be easy.
The White Tiger Venerable in the center also looked at the chaos around him with a gloomy face, and even used his internal force to drink a few words but failed to stop the chaos, and suddenly his face sank into the water, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.
Just when he wanted to kill some people to deter others, his face suddenly changed, and his head looked in one direction.
At the same time, the people on the field, who were fighting together regardless of you and me, also changed their faces one by one, their hand movements stopped, their scalps tingled for a while, and they turned their heads to look around with pale faces.
In the next moment, a bang sounded suddenly, followed by a slight vibration of the ground, followed by Carrara's voice.
Everyone immediately looked towards the source of the sound.
The eyes of the people near the source of the sound widened one by one, and then they scattered in panic, revealing the clearing, revealing the two men in black.
But at this moment, they were not concerned about the two men in black, but on the ground that had begun to crack since the source of the explosion.
The crack was almost the size of an adult's fist, and it headed all the way to the center of the ruins.
The men on both sides were forced to push away, just as Moses divided the sea.
And Suzaku, who was standing in place and sitting up, became even more ugly when he saw the person on the other side of the crack.
Together with the Xuanwu Venerable and the Qinglong Venerable who were watching the fire from the other side of the high platform, they were also speechless in shock.
Neither of the men in black could see their true faces, especially the man standing in front of him with a hooded cloak.
But they could determine each other's identities at a glance, one because of the Tianqu Sword in the other party's hand, which symbolized the Lord of the Demon Domain, and the other because of the aura emitted by the other party.
Or rather, the coercion of the other party.
This kind of coercion, they only endured a few decades ago, and at that time, they were coerced, the crane owl.
"How, how is it possible!" Xuanwu Venerable unconsciously covered the wound that had been seriously injured and had not yet healed, and muttered in disbelief.
At the beginning, the four of them attacked Wei Jiuli, although they did not kill him with their own hands, but Wei Jiuli was seriously injured at that time, and he was disturbed when he broke through, and he had already injured his meridians, and then fought with them to the death, even if he escaped in the end, he would definitely not live long.
Even if you are lucky enough to really survive, it is absolutely impossible to recover so quickly, and not only recover, it seems that the strength has also risen to several levels.
Such a terrifying coercion reminded them of the last time they fought with the Crane Owl, which was simply a nightmare for their lives.
"Haven't you already gotten rid of him? Who is this person? The White Tiger Venerable's face was also extremely ugly, and his feelings were particularly strong.
After all, after more than ten years of retreat, his memory is still stuck in the part where he was seriously injured by the crane owl, and now he suddenly felt such a familiar coercion, almost making his body reflexively shrink, and the wounds that had been restored well felt as if they were a little painful.
He hasn't appeared in all these years, so he hasn't seen the new palace master, but the power aura of other people's demon palace palace masters has been passed down from generation to generation, and he also knows the Tianqu Sword.
The Tianqu Sword can only cooperate with the Heavenly Demon Sword Technique and the Heavenly Demon Heart Method, otherwise it cannot be activated, and it is just a weapon that is stronger than ordinary weapons when it falls into the hands of ordinary people.
So suddenly there was someone who could use the Tianqu Sword, and there was no one else except the legendary Gara Demon Lord.
Suzaku couldn't hold it back, and vomited out a mouthful of blood, "No, it's impossible, it's absolutely impossible!" ”
At this time, the two people who attracted much attention, the black-clothed man holding the sword held the hilt of the sword, slowly raised his head, and was blown away by the wind of internal strength, revealing half of the pure color mask of Ugin, the thin lips like a knife under the mask were lightly pursed, the jaw was tense, and the eyes were as cold as knives, so that everyone's atmosphere did not dare to make a sound.
With a strong grip, he lightly pulled out the Tianqu sword, which was nearly halfway into the ground.
As he drew his sword, the long crack in the ground shook again, and then split outward, forming a ravine that was two meters wide.
At this time, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, "Palace master, it's the palace master!" ”
"The Demon Lord, the Demon Lord is back! The Demon Lord is back! Some people shouted in surprise.
However, more people were more vigilant and nervous, looking at that side defensively, including those who belonged to Wei Jiuli's faction before.
They remembered that at the beginning, the Four Holy Gates said that the palace master had failed to break through and went mad, and now the other party suddenly appeared here quietly, with such a terrifying power, which made them extremely uneasy.
"It's a good show." In the depressing atmosphere, Wei Jiuli held the sword, his cold eyes swept over the crowd at will, his thin lips suddenly hooked a trace of evil arc, and he looked at the White Tiger Venerable who was looking at the White Tiger Venerable and the Vermilion Bird Venerable who was half-struggling to stand up and crumbling.
But after hearing this sentence and seeing the other party's expression clearly, many people were relieved in their hearts, and then they were surprised.
Although the people around the Demon Lord of Garo rarely see the Demon Lord, they still have some understanding of the other party's personality and behavior, and they can't tell that the other party is going mad and losing their minds from their words and deeds or behavior, so they are naturally relieved.
And after being relieved, he thought of the terrifying aura of power on the other party's body, and he was naturally happy, it seems that the Demon Lord not only failed to break through, I'm afraid this is a success.
However, their attention quickly fell to the woman in black about a meter behind the Demon Lord.
This woman looked very unfamiliar, obviously not the person who usually serves the Demon Lord, and they all knew very well that the Demon Lord did not like to have someone waiting around him, and this was the first time they had seen a woman around the Demon Lord.
However, they didn't think much about it, guessing that it was probably the Demon Lord's new subordinate.
Compared with the joy of these people, some people are like mourning and looking desperate.
Especially those who have previously expressed their sincerity to Suzaku and continue to suppress the Gara Demon Lord's faction, their expressions are no different from those who are about to fall in the sky.
Especially the people of the Four Holy Clans, their faces were pale and they trembled unconsciously.
How arrogant and complacent he was before, how panicked and desperate he is now.
Venerable Qinglong probably couldn't stand this stimulation, suddenly covered his chest, spit out a mouthful of blood, his face was like gold paper, he was half-kneeling on the ground, holding the pillar next to him and panting, his eyes stared at Wei Jiuli, his eyes were not panicked, but there was an unwillingness to almost annihilate his reason.
There are probably few people in the martial arts who don't want to pursue a higher realm.
They even violated the ancestral precepts to win the position of palace master, and the bigger reason was because they wanted to obtain the Heavenly Demon Sword Technique and the Heavenly Demon Heart Method.
They don't know how powerful the former palace master is, but the example of the crane owl is in front of them, and the other party's realm is only so strong when they have just entered the high level, but their own cultivation has reached the peak and can no longer be saved, so they will always want to get rid of the crane owl.
It's a pity that I finally waited for the opportunity, but I was put on a position by the other party and missed the opportunity.
Now......
Feeling that the other party's body was completely inferior to the power of the crane owl back then, the Qinglong Venerable Wow was another mouthful of blood, he was unwilling, if he got it, if it was his cultivation, then now he might be able to stand taller, he was unwilling!
He is not the only one who is unwilling.
Xuanwu Venerable's face was extremely complicated.
The other party is just a hairy boy, but the height he has achieved is already higher than theirs, and they are now in their twilight years.
Originally, I was still complacent about the success of getting rid of the other party, and I fought to the death for who picked the fruit in the end, but I didn't expect to find out that it was completely a day job.
The Vermilion Bird Venerable thought that it was impossible, and then fainted directly because of the severity of the injury and the excessive stimulation.
The White Tiger Venerable's face was tense and his eyes were hideous, but slowly, his expression began to relax, and the unwillingness, nervousness and other emotions in his eyes were also suppressed, replaced by surprise and kindness.
"Are you the son of the Crane King, the current palace master of the Demon Palace? Unexpectedly, the old man has only been in retreat for more than ten years, everything is different, and you have grown up. He laughed twice, with a bit of loneliness and nostalgia on his face, as if he and the crane owl were close friends in life and death.
His change made almost everyone's jaws drop.
But after thinking about it, I understood the other party's actions.
And most of the people of the White Tiger Clan, who also understood, also had complicated faces and looked a little distorted.
Among them, the patriarch of the White Tiger Clan and the elders of the clan were even paler as paper.
The White Tiger Venerable obviously wanted to clear up the relationship, the purpose was to protect himself and the family, but because of this, he needed to withdraw from the scapegoat.
And it is needless to say who this scapegoat is, after all, when he is in retreat, the clan can call the shots of the patriarch and the elders.
The elders are okay, those who did not participate in the encirclement and suppression of Wei Jiuli at the beginning can also excuse themselves from knowing or being deceived, but the patriarch of the White Tiger Clan is inseparable, that is to say, he is dead.
Wei Jiuli obviously didn't expect the patriarch of the White Tiger Clan to change so quickly, and he made the decision to abandon the car and protect the commander so neatly.
However, thinking about how to deal with the Four Holy Gates in the past, it doesn't feel strange.
The corners of his mouth hooked up again, revealing a meaningful smile, "When we first met, my father also mentioned His Holiness many times. ”
The White Tiger Venerable stiffly smiled, feeling a little uncertain in his heart, not sure what the other party meant.
He hurriedly said, "It's a pity that the old man has been in retreat all these years, and the old man of the palace master only heard about it after he came out of the customs yesterday, but it was too late, and he planned to get rid of the troubled people today, but now that the palace master is fine, the old man is also at ease, and the old man in the White Tiger clan is also waiting to clean up the portal, and the old man has been negligent in managing it over the years, which has caused a lot of trouble for the palace master, and I ask the palace master to forgive me." ”
He lowered his posture so low that he almost tore off his old face and stepped on the ground.
Some people are ashamed of him, but some people secretly admire his ability to bend and stretch.
Only the White Tiger Clan people have mixed feelings, some are unwilling, angry and disappointed, some are happy, expectant and uneasy, and there are others like the White Tiger Patriarch who are sure of His Holiness's decision and are like ashes.
Compared to them, there is still a glimmer of life, but the other three clans are all trembling, and they all only feel that the future is bleak, and I am afraid that they will not survive today.
As for those who had surrendered to Suzaku before, their hearts began to come alive as well, and they were all trying to think of excuses and solutions.
