Chapter 25: Multi-Sided Battles
Not long after Qin Lan left Yu Jiaojiao's room, Zhong Wanli, the boss of Liuyun Pavilion, hurriedly came to the door of Yu Jiaojiao's room,
"Jiaojiao, it's me, Uncle Zhong. ”
Yu Jiaojiao stood up, stepped forward and opened the door, then let Zhong Wanli into the house, locked the door, and imposed a silence ban before speaking,
"Uncle Zhong is here for the matter over there in the ghost town of Yin Si?"
"Do you already know that, then what are your plans next, Uncle Zhong suggests that you rush back to the ghost city of Yinsi, just in case. There is reliable news from Huayi's side, the Treasure Pavilion, together with the three major forces of Baihualou and Casino, has sent three masters of the Soul Consolidation Rank, and more than 20 masters of the Crossing Tribulation level under the Soul Level, to attack the Ghost City of Yin Si in recent days. ”
"Uncle Zhong, tomorrow's Soul Sealing Ceremony Championship Competition, I'm worried about Wen Haotian's comfort, besides, even if I rush to the ghost city of Yin Si now, it will take at least eight or nine days on the road, if they succeed this time, it will be useless to rush back now, and I also bother Uncle Zhong to inform the owners of the three major inns of the ghost city of Yin Si, and send a master to ambush in the underworld, I immediately get in touch with Mo Lao, and let him join forces with the three major inns to take countermeasures. ”
"Alas, whether there is a mistake or not this time, those old immortals in the Underworld are bound to severely punish you... Wait a minute, Jiaojiao, if I guessed correctly, someone has already informed you that the Treasure Pavilion wants to attack the ghost city of the Netherworld, and this force must be inextricably linked to the auction house, isn't it?"
Yu Jiaojiao hesitated for a moment and said slowly,
"Uncle Zhong, according to our observation over the years, the auction house has indeed been very close to it for hundreds of years, and the auction house has always been neutral, so this reminder reminds me to prepare early, not necessarily the meaning of the auction house. ”
"Whether it is the meaning of the auction house or not, since they are close, it doesn't matter whose meaning it is, you may be able to use the person who informed you of this news, say that the power of the Yin Si ghost city auction house is moved, and let it maneuver from it, so that as long as the Yin Si ghost town does not go wrong during your outing, then after you go back, no matter how much trouble they make, there are also Hades and our three major inns to bear together, and this crime of dereliction of duty will not be counted on your head. ”
Uncle Zhong reminded him that this is really a feasible method. ”
"Then let's go our separate ways, I will inform the three major inns of the ghost city of Yin Si to go to the Hades Tower to ambush, you inform the Elder Hades to deal with it in advance, and by the way, try to see if you can use the power of the auction house to temporarily shelve the plans of the Treasure Pavilion and other forces. ”
"Okay, there's Uncle Lao Zhong. ”
After Zhong Wanli, the boss of Liuyun Pavilion, left Yu Jiaojiao's room, Yu Jiaojiao urged her own cultivation, and when she opened her palm, a black spirit butterfly instantly appeared in her palm, and when Yu Jiaojiao raised her hand, she passed through the door and disappeared into the air, which was Yu Jiaojiao's instructions to Mo Lao. After sitting in the room for a while, thinking about it again, Yu Jiaojiao still opened the door and walked towards Qin Lan's room.
"Miss Qin Lan, are you resting? ”
After Qin Lan opened the door, she didn't make a sound, and after letting Jiaojiao enter the house and locking the door casually, Yu Jiaojiao laid a ban around the two, and then whispered a few words in Qin Lan's ear, and asked Qin Lan about her strategy according to Zhong Wanli's inform. After Qin Lan heard this, she didn't respond to Jiaojiao immediately, and after thinking about it for a while, she said softly,
"Yu Jiaojiao, I can't be the master of this, but I can help you pass this back and let my father decide. ”
"Well, then I'll bother Miss Qin Lan, even if there is news, even notify me. ”
Qin Lan nodded, and when she saw that Yu Jiaojiao was about to leave, she didn't say anything more, and Yu Jiaojiao sent her out of the room. After Yu Jiaojiao left, a letterhead appeared out of thin air in Qin Lan's palm, and after she injected a trace of her own yin qi, the letterhead disappeared into the air, she thought to herself, maybe this time her father asked her to inform Yu Jiaojiao of this matter, in order to let Yu Jiaojiao come to her family for help, which can be regarded as letting the ghost city of Yin Si owe herself a favor.
In the underworld of the ghost city of Abi, a young woman with a bewitching face was leaning in front of the window, looking at the Liuyun Pavilion a few streets away, her eyes were cold,
"My good niece, my aunt is here to see how you deal with it, and when the incident of the ghost city of Yin Si happens, my aunt will go to the major elders to add fire, and your head of the ghost city of Yin Si will come to an end..."
After Yu Jiaojiao arranged all the matters, Kazui lay on the bed, and from the moment she decided to stay and wait for the end of tomorrow's soul sealing ceremony, and then return to the ghost city of Yinsi, she had already prepared for the worst in her heart, and only hoped that this disaster would not affect her parents.
At this time, in a room on the third floor of Liuyun Pavilion, a man dressed in a black robe and wearing a ghost face suddenly appeared in the house of Shen Lie, a demon scorpion clan, and at this time, Shen Lie was turning clouds and rain with Hei Ji, and when he saw the man appear in the room, he immediately fell to his knees from the bed and crawled on the ground.
"Shen Lie didn't know that Lord Ghost Face was coming tonight, and he hoped that Lord would atone for his sins. ”
The black-robed man was none other than the ghost-faced Lord Bai Zhengyi, he watched indifferently as Hei Ji pulled up his shirt, covered his body indiscriminately, and after rushing out of the door, he casually set a ban around the room, and put his foot on the disheveled Shen Lie,
"Tomorrow's event is so important, it's not good to breathe, but it's greedy for a moment's pleasure. ”
Although Shen Lie's body was kicked out two or three meters, he could sense that the man in front of him had not attached, so as not to affect his state tomorrow, and only gave him a warning, so he knelt on the ground again,
"Lord Ghost Face, Shen Lie was reckless for a while, and he hoped to forgive his sins. ”
Bai Zhengyi glanced deeply at the young man in front of him, and wanted to step forward to help him up, but in the end he didn't stretch out his hand.
"Get up, today the King of Equality is in the ring with the "Five Dragons and Demon Array" to sacrifice the hexagram, you occupy the position of the kun hexagram, and have been noticed by it. In order to ensure that tomorrow's affairs are foolproof, you can hold this "Demon Scorpion Spirit" in preparation for tomorrow's battle. ”
The moment Shen Lie saw the "Demon Scorpion Spirit" in the hands of Lord Ghostface, his heart was excited but full of doubts, the "Demon Scorpion Spirit" was a treasure inherited from generation to generation in his family, kept by the patriarchs of previous generations, and it was a divine object that stimulated the greatest potential of the Demon Scorpion Clan and improved his cultivation, how could it be in the hands of Lord Ghost Face. When he returns to the clan, he must ask his biological father, who is the patriarch of the Demon Scorpion clan, for clarification, however, this is not the time for him to think about this, it is important to keep the treasure of the clan by his side first.
"Thank you, Lord Ghostface, Shen Lie will definitely live up to your high expectations. ”
After Bai Zhengyi handed over the "Demon Scorpion Spirit" to Shen Lie, he disappeared into thin air. Shen Lie slowly stood up, ignoring the fact that he was in a mess at this time, staring at the "Demon Scorpion Spirit", his eyes became complicated.
On the third day of the Soul Sealing Ceremony, Wen Haotian and his party of four people entered the Soul Sealing Stage, the ring area that was destroyed yesterday has been rearranged today, the ring area is eastern, southern, western, northern, and middle five directions layout, the center is set up with a ring of more than 30 zhang, and the four directions are specially set up for the top four viewing platforms, Qin Lan and Yu Jiaojiao sent Wen Haotian and Luo Zifeng to the entrance of the ring area, and went to the viewing platform.
The four viewing platforms have been allocated in advance by the royal family of the Equality King, the third prince Bai Xuan is due south, the spirit python clan Luo Zifeng is due east, the demon scorpion clan Shen Lie is due west, and Wen Haotian is north. Such an arrangement came from the hands of Bai Zhengyi, with the south being respected, the east being precious, the west being secondary, and the north being defeated. Bai Xuan is a royal family, occupying the south as a respect, in order for Shen Lie not to attract the attention of the equal king Bai Zhengtian, he deliberately let him avoid the east, and the north is specially reserved for Wen Haotian, therefore, let Shen Lie live in the west, and the east is left cheap Luo Zifeng.
When Bai Zhengtian saw Bai Zhengyi's arrangement, he also had doubts in his heart, this was not like his third brother's style of acting bravely and skillfully and had no intention of political affairs. Maybe the principal below did it on purpose, and he should have thought too much.
"Today's Soul Sealing Ceremony Championship Competition, a total of three games, by the top four two against each other, the winner is qualified for the championship, and now the younger brother of the King of Equality, Lord Ghostface, announces the list of opponents. ”
After the person in charge of the Soul Sealing Ceremony finished speaking, the entire Soul Sealing Platform was silent, and after a while, I saw a man in a black robe and a mask appear in the position of the person in charge just now.
"In the first match of the Soul Sealing Ceremony, Shen Lie will face Luo Zifeng, and the competition will start in a quarter of an hour, and the two contestants will enter the central ring to prepare. ”
After Bai Zhengyi announced the battle list, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, according to the past practice, the list of contestants on the second and third days of the Soul Sealing Ceremony was drawn up by the Equality King Royal Family, yesterday Bai Zhengtian was abnormal, and set the order of everyone's matches with the "Five Dragons and Demon Array", when Wen Haotian entered the top four, Bai Xuan was still in a hard battle, he was anxious, for fear that Bai Xuan would be defeated, and there was no way to deal with Wen Haotian on the third day.
At this time, everything is going according to his plan, no matter who the top four are today, he will definitely use the third prince Bai Xuan to remove two obstacles for Shen Lie, as long as the weakest arrangement is given to Shen Lie and he wins the top spot, great things will be done. However, at this time, Bai Zhengtian, the king of equality, frowned, but the list of opponents had been announced, and he could only wait for Bai Zhengyi to return to his seat before making inquiries.
"Brother Wang, when you and I discussed this battle list yesterday, the first Bai Xuan played against Luo Zifeng, why are you at this time?"
In the eyes of King Ping, Luo Zifeng's strength is not as good as his own emperor Bai Xuan, plus Bai Xuan is a dragon clan, and he has innate suppression of the spirit python clan. Although the hexagram was unsatisfactory, since Bai Xuan had entered the top four, he and the king naturally did not want the "Soul Fan" to fall into the hands of foreign clans, so he deliberately made such an arrangement on the third day. When Wen Haotian and Shen Lie were both defeated, Bai Xuan took advantage of the fisherman, so that his emperor had a greater hope of winning the championship.
"Brother Wang forgives the sin, Xuan'er and Wen Haotian have a deep grudge, and yesterday begged me in every possible way, so that the younger brother made this decision, so that Xuan'er could get what he wanted. ”
"Alas, you are confused, that's it, the matter has come to this, you and I will wait and see. ”
Bai Zhengyi saw that Bai Zhengtian, the king of equality, no longer paid attention to him, his face looked sincere and frightened, but he was overjoyed in his heart, and cautiously returned to his seat, waiting for the show to be staged.
