It was the middle of the night, and people were in the middle of the night.

Huoqiu City, which was already quiet, gradually became noisy.

The movement caused by dozens of black-robed people from the Black Wind Department attacking the vassal mansion was not small.

The large array set up by Qingyang was even more multicolored pillars of light rising into the sky, and the battle between Mr. Qingyu and the twelve black warriors caused the entire city to shake.

The fluctuations caused by this series of peerless powerhouse battles made all the high-ranking people in the city feel shocked and solemn, lest the disaster of the great war affect this prosperous city.

Under the leadership of the captains and military commanders, a group of city guards shouted the password for martial law, patrolling back and forth on the city wall and the fang wall, and the sonorous sound was endless.

This made all the people in the city who tried to take advantage of the fire to rob not dare to act rashly, and the city lord and city captain of Huoqiu also appeared in various parts of the city to appease the people.

This series of actions gradually calmed down Huoqiu City, which was originally slightly flustered, and only then did a large number of people gather in the direction of the pavilion.

At the same time as the noise in the city, a black mist swam quietly in a certain square in the city, looming in the shadow of the moon, even if someone stared at the shadows, it was difficult to distinguish.

After avoiding the two groups of city guards patrolling by, the black mist quickly passed through the streets and alleys into a courtyard, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a sixty-year-old white-haired man.

At the same time as he stopped, Lao Suo's body shook and covered his mouth and coughed continuously, as if he was about to cough out his internal organs.

When the old man finished coughing, his palms were stained with fishy blood, and it was obvious that he had suffered a lot in the battle with Mr. Qingyu, and it was not as easy as it seemed.

"Snake Male, you're back from old age~"

A young man's voice came from the room, respectful with a hint of uneasiness, anxiety and joy.

The old man's originally gloomy eyes heard the young man's greeting, and he instantly regained his sharp expression, and his waist was as strong as ever.

A young black-robed priest came out with a little nervousness, and when he saw that only Lao Suo was returning, his face suddenly changed drastically, and there were thirty-six people who followed the old man.

There was panic and a slight hesitation in his eyes, and he said, "Snake Princess, why haven't they come back?

Lao Su didn't answer the young priest's meaning at all, he slowly looked around the courtyard, frowned at the young black-robed priest and said, "Why isn't Jisheng with you?"

The black-robed priest noticed that the old man's face was wrong, and then thought of the huge movement in the city and the mission of himself and others, and immediately guessed that the operation was bound to fail.

His face was full of horror, and he said uneasily: "Snake Princess, Ji Sheng went out half an hour ago to have something, and he may have to wait a few hours before he comes back, he shouldn't be a traitor." ”

"Hmph, he didn't go out at the right time, so naturally he wasn't a traitor, but walking around in private was also against my orders!"

The gloomy color on Lao Suo's face flashed, and he suddenly said,

"Since he went out and ran around by himself, you and I don't have to pay attention to him anymore, let's go out of the city, and we must not stay in the city any longer. ”

"Snake Princess, let's change the courtyard again, why run away in such a mess?" the young priest puzzled, "We still have a few places to stay in the city. ”

"You don't understand, there are masters in the Qing clan, don't say that I am not this person's opponent, I am afraid that only the high priest in the clan can be sure to defeat him!"

The words of the snake prince made the young priest dare not say anything, and the old man was as powerful as a god in his eyes, and he was defeated by the Qing clan master and fled overnight.

After all, the old man was one of the twelve Dharma Protectors of the Black Wind Clan, and even after being injured, he was by no means comparable to the armor of the city guards, and a faint black mist shrouded him as he walked through the city, and no one noticed him at all.

It wasn't until the two of them crossed the tall walls of Huoqiu City and came to the east of the city for a few miles, looking at the thick ice and snow on the East Lake, that the old man couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, recalling that the strength of the blue-robed man was too terrifying.

"Huh, a red bird, so small is also a fierce bird!"

The black-robed young man's astonished cry attracted the old man's attention, and he was immediately alert at the first sight, this fiery bird seemed to have been seen somewhere.

"Chirp~"

This fat little bird, only the size of two palms, was covered with fiery red down feathers, like a fire burning in the night.

Obviously looking like a young bird, but exuding a four-grade fierce bird breath, God knows how powerful it will be when he becomes an adult, this discovery made the snake gong's heart tighten: "It's not good, this is the eldest daughter of the Ye family who signed a contract with the fierce bird, go quickly!"

In a small forest a hundred zhang away, a faint voice came: "The old gentleman came with hospitality, I haven't entertained me yet, why do you have to leave in a hurry?"

With the sound of snow and ice stamping, four figures stepped out of the shadows of the woods.

Qingyang had a calm smile on his face, and Mr. Qingyu, Red Ghost Xinyi, and Ye Mengqiu stood behind Qingyang.

Seeing this scene, the face of the snake lord changed greatly, and after a moment of silence, his voice became more and more gloomy: "I have already escaped from the city, do you want to continue to persecute like this?"

"Come and don't be rude, the old gentleman wants to kill someone, don't you still want to get out of the way?" Qingyang held the hilt of the sword in his hand and said with a sneer on his face,

"At the beginning, I had no grievances with the Black Wind Ministry, but your Ministry repeatedly provoked me, how could I not let them leave some deep memories?"

Since the two sides have long been enemies, if they can kill a powerful Dharma Protector Priest, it is an excellent means to weaken the overall strength of the Black Wind Department or to deter the enemies within the Xing Kingdom.

"Good, good!"

Seeing that Qingyang refused to let him go, the snake man's expression became more and more fierce, and he said gloomily, "Don't think that you have fierce birds, I also have helpers!"

As he spoke, he pulled out a two-foot bone flute from his waist, and the whole body was dark blue and flashing with dark green ghost fire, and the tune played was even more strange and sharp, as if a ghost was crying at night.

"Huh?"

Qingyang's complexion changed slightly, this kind of bone flute was last time when Red Ghost C summoned seven blood wolves, and now the tune played by this Black Wind Protector Priest is extremely depressing, I don't know what kind of strange beast it can summon.

"Click~Click~"

The thick ice and snow in the East Lake behind the old man cracked, sensing the qi and blood hidden in it, as if a peerless beast was about to emerge.

"Haha, my little darling is here, how can I be afraid of you people!" "The snake man laughed and kept retreating, "What you killed before was not my contracted beast, and now I let you see where my snake name comes from?"

Before the snake could finish speaking, the two-foot-thick ice layer of the East Lake behind him burst open, and huge cracks spread across the ice for miles.

In the middle of these countless fissures is a huge hole, and a dark figure slowly sticks out from the surface of the lake, giving people a great sense of oppression.

"What a coiled snake, what a giant snake!"

Qingyang stared at the giant snake in front of him with a solemn face, just the head was the size of a zhang, the body was like a water tank, and the raised head and neck part alone was five zhang high, so it was speculated that the entire body was at least thirty zhang.

Mr. Qingyu's face did not have the ease just now, and his expression was slightly solemn: "It is actually a coiled snake with the peak of the third grade." ”
