1002 Loyalty and Glory of the Dead
If you didn't guess wrong, these black-clothed swordsmen should be the minions of the Ghost Clan distributed around the valley and even all over Anyun, and they rushed back to Broken Soul Valley to help after receiving the news of the enemy's attack.
Mu Hanyan was secretly glad, and fortunately there was a night in the night, otherwise if they broke through from the valley mouth, they would inevitably have to spend more hands and feet, saving people is like fighting a fire, and every time they delay for a while, Yun Bo will be more dangerous.
In the depths of the house, there were a few sounds of gold and iron resonating, and then peace was restored again.
Mu Hanyan raised his eyebrows, these few sword strikes were obviously lacking in strength, Yun Bo was either at the end of the strong crossbow and was dragged to exhaustion, or he was injured and had the strength to fight again.
Ye Qifeng also heard it, and took Mu Hanyan and the others to speed forward.
......
In the depths of the house, in front of an ancient ancestral hall, four black-robed old men were standing with their horns, surrounding a gray-robed old man and a young man, and next to them, three other black-robed old men in the same dress had fallen in a pool of blood, obviously dying of anger.
The old man who was surrounded by them stood proudly with a long sword in his hand, and his white beard fluttered majestically, making people dare not look directly, but judging from the sharp rise and fall of his chest, it was obvious that the injury was not light.
The young man was protected by him, and he was even more seriously injured, revealing more than a dozen deep sword wounds that could be seen in the bones, and blood rolled to the ground one after another, but he was still holding the ground with his sword, his expression was resolute, and he could not see the slightest fear.
These two people were just to save Mu Nan and Yu Qingwan from Yun Bo and Mu Kill, who had fallen into the Valley of Broken Souls.
"I didn't expect that you were actually from the Mu family in the capital, if I guessed correctly, you are the shadow guard beside Mu Beichen, right?" The old man at the front said to Yun Bo with a cold smile on his face.
Like the young man who had fought with Mu Hanyan before, the bodies of these black-robed old men also exuded a blue light, and their thin figures were like ghosts swimming in the Nine Styx River.
"I didn't expect that after more than 100,000 years of the fall of the Ghost Clan, there would be a chance to resurrect. Yun Bo also said indifferently.
"I originally wanted to let you live, but unfortunately, you know too much. The old man took a step forward, revealing a strong murderous intent.
"Mu Kill, go!" Yun Bo said to Mu Kill in a deep voice. Now that he has been identified by the Ghost Clan, there is no need for him to hide his identity anymore.
"Master, I can't leave, you can go. Mu Kill said with a wry smile.
"Mu Kill, have you forgotten how I taught you? Yun Bo said sharply.
"Master, I can't drag you down any longer. Mu Kill raised his head, shook his head, the tiredness in his eyes dissipated a little, and a trace of essence was revealed, and he actually took the last breath of strength and rushed towards the black-robed old man.
Looking at the sword momentum, it is clear that it is a sword that will end together, but unfortunately, with his current seriously injured body, there is no chance of ending up at all. It's not so much that it's desperate, it's not that it's about breaking it off on its own, so as to break Yun Bo's concern and give him a chance to escape.
"Mu Kill!" Seeing Mu Kill's intention, Yun Bo's heart was like a knife, and he also rushed forward with a sword.
"Choking, choking, choking......" Mars splashed gold and iron, Yun Bo and Mu Kill were forced to take a few steps back again, and they were still surrounded by four black-robed old men.
Their strength is obviously inferior to Yun Bo, they have not yet reached the realm of the Sword Master, and they have not even arrived at the Great Sword Master, they are all the strength of the ninth order of the Sword Master, but the attack and defense are very tacit, and the subtlety of the sword technique is so strange that it has far surpassed the masters of the same level, and the ordinary Sword Saint is slightly better.
Although Yun Bo was a master of the Sword Saint Realm, he had previously rescued Mu Kill in order to kill the other three black-robed old men, but he was also injured a lot, and he couldn't suppress him with his cultivation, so he was entangled by them and couldn't get out.
Noisy footsteps came, and nearly a hundred black-clothed swordsmen retreated from the direction of the valley mouth to the mansion, although their strength was still inferior to those black-robed old men, but at this time, Yun Bo was already at the end of the crossbow, and it was extremely reluctant to deal with these black-robed old men, and the arrival of these black-clothed swordsmen was tantamount to making things worse.
"Master, you go quickly. Seeing that the situation was getting more and more critical, Mu Kill was anxious and shouted at Yun Bo.
"Do you really think you can leave?" As soon as the words fell, the black-robed old man led by him sneered contemptuously, "A mere Mu family, how dare you ruin our ghost clan's big things, do you really think that the current Mu family is still the Mu family of 10,000 years ago? Just wait for the head of the family to wake up, and the first one will destroy your Mu family!"
Hearing his words, Yun Bo and Mu Kill looked at the ancestral hall behind them at the same time, and their expressions became extremely solemn.
As if to confirm their words, as soon as the black-robed old man's voice fell, the ancestral hall behind them shook violently, and an eerie and terrifying aura faintly emanated.
"The head of the family is about to wake up!" an old man in a black robe cheered excitedly.
"After waiting for tens of thousands of years, the ancestors still haven't abandoned our ghost vein!" Another old man was also so excited that tears welled up in his eyes.
"Not good!" Yun Bo and Mu Kill's faces changed at the same time.
In fact, they don't know what secrets are hidden in the body of the head of the Ghost Clan, they don't know why he is asleep, and they don't know what his awakening means, but as long as they feel the eerie and terrifying aura of the ancestral hall, they also know how powerful the head of the Ghost Clan will be once he wakes up.
They have revealed their identities, and the Mu family and the Ghost Clan have also formed a mortal enmity, once the head of the Ghost Clan wakes up, the first unlucky person must be the Mu family. The ancestral hall shook more and more violently, and the eerie and terrifying aura became more and more intense, and they didn't think that the other party's words were true.
The two glanced at each other, both saw the resoluteness of each other's eyes, and without saying a word, the two gave up the idea of escaping at the same time and rushed towards the ancestral hall.
While the head of the Ghost Clan has not yet woken up, now is the best opportunity to get rid of him, and only by getting rid of him can the Mu clan be safe.
As the dead soldiers cultivated by the Mu family since childhood, they know their mission, and it is their only duty to clear hidden dangers for the Mu family and protect the safety of the family, even if they pay for it, it is their glory.
Seeing Yun Bo and Mu Kill's actions, several black-robed old men were slightly startled, but they quickly understood their intentions, and a cold smile appeared on their faces again.
With a flicker, three of them attacked Yun Bo, and the other attacked Mu Kill.
