Tongcheng is not big, and with Xu Han's half-step immortal realm's internal force cultivation, it is easy to lay out several sword formations around Tongcheng.

This sword formation naturally can't be said to be exquisite, and even the powerhouses of the ordinary Heavenly Hunting Realm can crack it with some effort, but for these 30,000 ordinary people, these sword formations are like a thunder pool, and no one dares to go beyond half a step.

Kirijo is locked up.

It has become a cage where no one else can enter, but the people of the city cannot get out.

And Xu Han, who was the initiator of all this, seemed to be unaware of this, and he led Fang Ziyu and others, who were also unknown, to swagger into the luxurious mansion where the holy soldier girl lived in front of him, just like a dove occupying the magpie's nest.

Of course, this is a very strange decision, after all, before that, everyone's plan was to leave this Tongcheng and even this Jingzhou as soon as possible. They naturally couldn't figure out what made Xu Han make such a decision at the risk of being surrounded by Yuan Xiucheng's army.

And such worries are even more evident in the hearts of the people of Tongcheng.

With their level, they naturally couldn't understand who Xu Han was and what he wanted to do. But this does not prevent them from recognizing their identities at this moment, they are all prisoners in Xu Han's hands now, and life and death can only be taken away from each other at a moment's notice.

Although ordinary people have never been in their own hands with their own lives, when the facts are so directly exposed in front of their eyes, they still inevitably fall into uneasiness and fear.

Of course, Xu Han didn't need to care about what these ordinary people were thinking, all he had to do was to ensure that these people in Tongcheng couldn't leak everything that happened here during these five days.

Xue Lian, that is, the leader of the group of assassins, finally agreed to Xu Han's request, this is a choice for him that does not have too many other options, he didn't think that Xu Han would be a big man sent by Jingzhou, summon them all and then wipe them out, but under the mediation of the prince of Jiang Lai, Xue Lian still believed Xu Han for the time being, after all, their current situation will not be worse in the future, maybe Xu Han will bring them a turnaround. But it was still a big gamble, but it was like a gambler with only three copper plates left, who wanted to turn over and had to fight for his life to bet all his worth on the table.

That night, Xu Han sat alone in the small courtyard, holding the black cat in his arms, and closed his eyes leisurely and fell asleep under the angry gaze of the yellow monkey.

An uninvited guest pushed open the door of the courtyard where Xu Han was and came straight to Xu Han.

Xu Han opened his eyes, looked up and down at the young man with confusion in his eyes, and was not too surprised by his arrival, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the stone table not far away, motioned for the other party to sit down, and then asked, "What is the important matter of the little prince?"

Li Dingxian's eyes wandered, and after a long while, he asked, "Why... You want to save them?"

This is of course a very confusing thing for Li Dingxian, his father has always taught him to weigh the pros and cons, although sometimes it is difficult for him to do it, but between the life of the envoy of the Great Zhou and the people of Tongcheng, he still chose the former with difficulty, in his opinion, it is obviously not a cost-effective deal to exchange the lives of 30,000 people for the entire Great Xia and even the entire world. Even in his impression, Xu Han should not be a person who can do such a thing.

Xu Han asked rhetorically, "They?"

Li Dingxian frowned, he felt that it was impossible for Xu Han not to know who they were referring to in his mouth, Xu Han was playing Tai Chi, obviously not wanting to answer his question. The arrogant little prince didn't have the bearing of a corporal of Lixian—or he couldn't do it to Xu Han, so he stood up angrily and was about to leave.

"If what the little prince said about them refers to the people in Tongcheng, then I think the little prince asked the wrong person, Xu never wanted to save them. And Xu Han's voice suddenly sounded when the other party stepped away.

Li Dingxian's footsteps were suspended in the air, he turned his head to look at Xu Han, and the confusion between his eyebrows became a little more solemn again.

"As I said before, they have already believed in the words of the Emperor of Chu, and if they destroy this batch of holy medicines, there will be the next batch of holy medicines, you can save them for a while, but you can't save them for a lifetime, and even they won't remember your goodness, they will only treat you as a villain. Xu Han continued.

Li Dingxian was not stupid, after he heard this, he quickly came back to his senses, and he said in shock: "So you asked Xue Lian to summon those companions to save Xue Lian and the others, and you want to take them out of the customs together?!"

"But there are more than 1,000 people, even if there is no Yuan Xiucheng's pursuers who want to get out of the customs, it will inevitably be hard to shake the defenders on the border, why are you..."

Xu Han squinted his eyes and smiled, noncommittal to Li Dingxian's speculation.

"What about these 30,000 people? Do you just watch them being deceived by that holy medicine? That's 30,000 lives!" Li Dingxian saw from Xu Han's expression that what he had guessed was not a problem, and he couldn't help but ask Xu Han loudly.

In Xu Han's squinted eyes, the cold light flickered, and he said in an extremely low voice: "I said that I can't save them." ”

When he said this, he changed his words and said: "Besides, how can the little prince who has never done anything before come to ask Xu Mou?"

"I..." Li Dingxian, who was poked in pain, was speechless for a while, and only after a while did he say with some dejection: "I... Now that you've come this far, why don't you try to see if you can save it?"

Xu Han glanced at Li Dingxian, whose eyes were gloomy, and his tone suddenly softened a little: "Little prince, what a person should do and what he can do is never what others say, you have to ask your own heart." Whether it is an immortal or a mortal, the longevity of the elderly is only a thousand years, and the longevity of the short is only a few decades.

Li Dingxian's body shook, his eyes flashed and looked at Xu Han, probably never thought that Xu Han would say such a thing to him at this time, but before he could say the slightest word of gratitude, Xu Han's voice sounded again.

"If you want to do something, do it quickly, Xu only has five days to wait for you, well, to be precise, there are only four and a half days left. ”

When Li Dingxian heard this, he finally reacted, he bowed to Xu Han very solemnly, but he didn't say much, and after doing this, he turned around and strode towards the outside of Tongcheng.

At that time, Xu Han squinted at Li Dingxian's back, and his eyes narrowed again.

If he was not mistaken, this little prince seemed to be carrying a copper plate on his body, but he didn't know it.

It wasn't until Li Dingxian's figure completely disappeared from Xu Han's eyes that Xu Han withdrew his gaze and looked up at the sky.

It was night, cloudless, and the stars were shining brightly above the dome.

He looked at Starlight, the expression on his face suddenly became a little melancholy, and he muttered to himself, "Is this wooden box that Mr. wants me to carry, or..."

"What about this world?"
