In addition to the life-and-death fight with Long Xiaoshu on Yu Kongyue's side, Lu Chuan, who was in Yong'an County, also started to attack after the army finished recuperating.

Because he was facing a behemoth like the Han Dynasty, Lu Chuan was extremely cautious this time, at least not as divided into troops and attacked from multiple ways when he fought Yunhe Kingdom, Cangge Kingdom and Abte Kingdom, but gathered all the soldiers and horses together, and said one thing after the battle.

This style of play is a bit slow, but it is better to be steady, and if you capture one place, you can stabilize one place, and you don't have to worry about the situation repeating.

Xia Fan was not only concerned about the battle situation in these two places, but also wanted to know how the situation of Bang Ye and the others who had invaded the world of the multi-armed clan was.

It's just that this matter is a secret that few people know about within Xia Fan's forces, and not many people know about it, and it is even more impossible for these contact points in the capital to have information passed on, so Xia Fan didn't get any useful information.

By the time I left the contact point, it was already dark. However, since there is no curfew in the capital, there are not many pedestrians on the street, but Xia Fan can sensitively perceive that the atmosphere is a little different from the daytime, and there are more soldiers and horses patrolling.

Xia Fan guessed that all this was mostly caused by the disappearance of the two hidden dragon guards, but he didn't care, and walked through the capital as if he was nothing.

Soon Xia Fan came to a courtyard that was not too big, Shen Nian glanced around, and found that no one else was paying attention, so he jumped in, and at the same time flicked his left hand, and had already laid a ban before landing on the ground, enveloping the entire courtyard.

Immediately, Xia Fan released more than a hundred fierce spirits and evil ghosts, and he didn't suspect anything, but he believed that with the usual brutality of these guys, there would soon not be a single living mouth left in the courtyard.

This is where Xia Fan's secret agents of the Hidden Dragon Guard are stationed. On the surface, it looks like an ordinary house, but there are a hundred and ten secret agents of the Hidden Dragon Guard and the person in charge of assassination on standby all year round.

There are many such strongholds in the capital, but Xia Fan can't uproot them all one by one, first, he doesn't have the leisure to do so, and secondly, there is no need, the reason why he aimed at this place is just to say hello to the hidden dragon guards with the lives of the hundred and ten hidden dragon guards inside.

"Who?!"

"Enemy attack!"

"Bang ......"

............

Although the fierce spirits and demons were silent when they moved, they were still detected by the hidden dragon guards in the courtyard not long after they launched the attack, which shows that the vigilance of these people is really not low, and their strength is not bad.

As soon as the shouts began, the sound of the collision of energy during the battle broke out.

The secret agent with the hidden dragon guard obviously realized that something was not quite right and wanted to report the news to the outside world, but with Xia Fan's prohibition, any way to warn could only be reluctantly declared invalid.

The leader stationed here has the strength of the fivefold spirit realm, which can be regarded as quite not weak. Even a fierce ghost was blasted into a cloud of black gas.

But in the end, he and his men could not be saved, because the enraged spirits and demons were even more ferocious, which also made the dragon guards in this stronghold in the end, from the leader to the cook and groom, all of them were killed, and even the flesh and blood were devoured by the ghosts, leaving only a white and miserable skeleton.

After clearing this stronghold, Xia Fan did not stop, and went to other places.

Since you want to greet the hidden dragon guard, it is naturally not enough to fight once, otherwise how can you show your enthusiasm.

Under the cover of the night, Xia Fan's figure flickered, and he pulled out the eleven strongholds explained by the hidden dragon guard eyeliner that he caught in one breath before stopping.

At first, Xia Fan still had some effort, and then released the fierce souls and evil ghosts after laying down the ban, but later he felt that it was really troublesome, so he simply changed the way and directly sacrificed the multi-bone tower to cover the stronghold under it, and the fierce spirits and evil ghosts roared out, and soon killed the hidden dragon guard secret agent among them.

Then Xia Fan went to clean up the eyeliner of the three sects scattered all over the capital.

For the three sects, Xia Fan has always had no good feelings, and secretly sent people to collect their information, so when he wants to do it now, he will definitely fight accurately and ruthlessly.

The place where the eyeliner used by the three sects to place it naturally cannot be compared with the hidden dragon guard, most of them are covered by some shops, and there are not too many people at each point, that is, about a dozen people.

Xia Fan was naturally easier to deal with them, but the benefits were far easier than pulling out the stronghold of the Hidden Dragon Guard.

By midnight, the streets had become sparsely populated and silent, but many places in the capital suddenly became extremely noisy. The sound of hurried horses' hooves, the footsteps of hordes of soldiers galloping through the streets, and all sorts of angry shouts were heard.

This also woke up the people who had already fallen asleep, and they became even more noisy.

The entire capital seemed to be suddenly woken up, the people were noisy, the noise was inextricable, and there were even rays of light passing through the sky, obviously there were cultivators flying across the sky with magic weapons.

Xia Fan listened to the noise around him, looked at the magic weapon light in the air, and a sneer appeared on his face. Obviously, after the Hidden Dragon Guard found out that their spies had been brutally exterminated, the Three Sects also realized the fact that the eyeliner they had arranged in many parts of the capital had been killed.

Whether it is the secret agent of the Qianlong Guard or the eyeliner of the three sects, they are not placed casually, they must all have their respective responsibilities.

For example, if there is such a stronghold in the vicinity of the Qiankun Sect, then nine times out of ten, it is the duty to monitor the Qiankun Sect's every move. If this stronghold is uprooted, then it is natural that it will be suspected of the Qiankun Sect.

Because of this, the Qianlong Guard and the Three Sects, who had just suffered huge casualties, almost did not hesitate to look at the people and forces that these dead people had been ordered to monitor.

Suspicion of this kind of thing, as long as there is a beginning, it will not end, because the more I think about it, the more suspicious I feel, and no matter whether it is Qianlongwei or the three sects, they are all arrogant and accustomed to it, and when they have nothing to do, they can't wait to find something to kill the chickens and monkeys, not to mention that something really happened now, so naturally they did not hesitate to start a revenge on the suspect.

The objects that can be monitored by the Qianlong Guard or the Three Sects are definitely not soft persimmons, otherwise they will not waste time to monitor at all, but will do it directly, so in the face of the retaliation of the Qianlong Guard or the Three Sects, how can those who are suspected sit still and wait to die, and the conflict will break out.

This also made the capital more and more noisy tonight, but this had nothing to do with Xia Fan, because he was already standing outside a very large mansion at this time.

Although Xia Fan had done so many things before, they were all just trying to disturb the seemingly peaceful situation in the capital, and the mansion in front of him was his real destination tonight. According to Bang Ye, this is where Jade Rat and Huang Lao were forced to retreat and think.

This mansion was originally the official residence of a first-class official for more than ten years, but later, the minister didn't know why, but he actually impeached the king of the town, Xiahou, and then was dismissed from office.

At that time, the matter was in an uproar, and many ministers suspected that it was the king of the town who was impeached by him who did such a murderous thing. It's just that because there is no evidence, there is no evidence for his death, and he didn't even catch a murderer, and finally the case was closed after a period of trouble.

Because of the tragedy, many officials feel unlucky, so those who are qualified to live in this official residence are unwilling to live, and those who are not qualified to live in it can't live in.

When Xia Fan heard Bang Ye talk about the origin of this official residence, he couldn't help but laugh dumbly, who would have thought that such a place could have more or less anything to do with him.

"I just don't know if the news that Bang Ye told me is true or false?!" Xia Fan stood outside the wall and glanced at the tiles on the wall, and couldn't help muttering in his heart.

Because at that time, Bang Ye told him that Jade Rat and Huang Lao might be here, but he also said that it would be better for him to be cautious, because it was a trap specially laid by the Worship House to deal with him.

Xia Fan stood outside the wall and didn't know if the huge mansion in front of him, which looked calm and peaceful under the cover of night, was a trap, but he could be sure that at this time, at the middle of it was the Hidden Dragon Crouching Tiger, and there were more than ten cultivators above the sixth level of the Divine Spirit Realm.

However, with Xia Fan's keen thoughts, he didn't notice the aura of the jade rat and Huang Lao, which made him feel a little strange, and at the same time, a rather bad premonition rose in his heart.

It's just that it's all here, of course Xia Fan won't retreat in spite of the difficulties, and he doesn't want to return in vain, his figure flashed, and he had already crossed the wall and entered the mansion.

From the outside, this mansion is not much different from ordinary mansions except that it is larger and more refined, but it was not until Xia Fan stood in it that he realized why he was alarmed when he was outside.

Just because there are all kinds of formations and prohibitions almost everywhere in this mansion, at a glance, it can really be described as dangerous, killing every step, and what is extremely deceptive is that there is no aura fluctuation, so at first glance there is really no significant difference from the ordinary official residence, but if you take a bad step, you will die without a place to be buried.

It is also a loss that Xia Fan is proficient in the way of formation, so it is not difficult to see the doorway in this, if it is replaced by an ordinary cultivator, as long as he steps into it, he will definitely not know how he will die.

"Since the defense is so tight, there must be some great characters imprisoned in it, maybe Jade Rat and Huang Lao are among them. Xia Fan thought to himself, and walked inside.

Although there were formations and prohibitions everywhere in this courtyard, Xia Fan walked all the way and did not trigger anywhere.

It's just that the deeper he got, Xia Fan's brows couldn't help frowning. Because the surroundings are so quiet, there is a disturbing weirdness.
