The existence of a continental pyramid spire actually begged for mercy! The little fox was stunned for a moment and did not immediately withdraw it, and the lightning strike almost knocked Li Dewu to slag. Fortunately, Principal Lan Yun and Zhong Ling came to the rescue in time, attracting most of the power of thunder and lightning.

Li Dewu, who had a dark face and an explosive head, had a few wisps of white smoke coming out of his mouth and fell to the ground.

"Master Li. What do you mean by that?" Principal Lan Yun asked indifferently.

Li Dewu sat like that and said bitterly: "Principal Lan, I was also forced to wade into this troubled water with them. You don't know, they threaten me with the lives of my whole people. ”

"Li Dewu, you are also a martial artist, how can you be threatened by them, don't you know how to ask the empire for help if you are threatened?" Lan Yun asked puzzled.

"Alas!" Li Dewu sighed and told the truth of the matter.

It turned out to be a month ago. Kou Tianxing took people to Li's house and asked Li Dewu to submit to them. At the beginning, Li Dewu naturally opposed it directly. Who knows, in less than half a day, the Li family was surrounded by people, and they were only allowed to enter but not leave. Anyone who went out of the Li family's compound and monsters were killed and placed at the Li family's gate. Moreover, the Li family began to show signs of poisoning, and there were large and small red spots all over the body.

Zhong Ling and Lan Yun glanced at each other, knowing that it must be red tarantula venom. Lan Yun motioned for Li Dewu to continue.

"They came to the door again a day later and said that they were the only ones on the mainland who could heal them, on the condition that I had to help them once. Otherwise, the entire Li family will be poisoned. Li Dewu almost collapsed, and said with a crying voice: "My Li family has lasted for thousands of years to my generation, and I had no choice but to agree to their request." Otherwise, how could I have the face to meet my ancestors. ”

Lan Yun shouted: "Li Dewu, you are wrong. I want your ancestors to do their best for the peaceful development of the empire to obtain the current foundation of your Li family. but here you help the evil and forget the roots. Submit to other forces. You're too embarrassed by them, and you're underestimating the strength of the empire too much. To tell you the truth, the poison is called red tarantula venom, and the imperial national teacher already has an antidote. ”

After speaking, he pointed at Zhong Ling: "She has an antidote on her." If you believed in the Empire, why are you so embarrassed now? Haven't many intrigues and tricks been stopped by empires for thousands of years, and why do you think empires are losing today?"

Li Dewu pondered silently for a long time, and finally spoke again: "At that time, Kou Tianxing not only used poison, but also brought a joint letter of advice from many powerful figures in the court. I was frightened by the extermination of the race, and I was pressured by the Imperial Powers to agree to them. ”

Lan Yun knew that there were too many things involved, and he had to figure it out as soon as possible: "I'll ask you now, which major tasks are they all signed together?"

At the beginning, Li Dewu hesitated for a long time, Lan Yun casually reported a few key suspects of the empire's screening, and Li Dewu gritted his teeth after hearing this: "Yes, in addition to the few you said, there is also Prime Minister Li Fanyuan." The Praetorian Guard commander Cai Xiding, Cai Beiding. Snow Spirit City Fang Jia Fang. The city lord of Wanhua City is full of flowers. And there are also two martial arts and a bearded knife. ”

Lan Yun was also shocked when he heard this, no matter what the reason, there were so many people co-branded at the same time, it could be seen that the enemy's strength was a little more than expected.

Immediately, Lan Yun asked again: "Do they have a way to explain how to obtain this tower this time?"

Li Dewu said: "Yes, they said that they have obtained the key to open the secret room, and they have a plan to obtain the pagoda. As long as you open the door of the secret room, a wisp of clone of the gods who used to own this tower will appear, and as long as you agree to one condition of the gods, you can manipulate some of the functions of this tower. Once the mission is completed, the tower will be completely subdued. But now they only need to be able to manipulate the tower's function of storing monsters, and as for that task, it will have no effect on their plans if it is completed. ”

Zhong Ling secretly scolded them in his heart for being so shameless that they dared to deceive the gods like this.

Lan Yun asked Li Dewu where the key was.

Li Dewu pointed to Kou Tianxing, who had turned into meat paste: "The key is on him, you can find it." ”

Zhong Ling took out the storage ring he had obtained from them, found the one from Kou Tianxing, and opened it with input power. I always found a key made of unknown metal.

Zhong Ling handed the key to Lan Yun. Lan Yun took it in his hand and thought about it, then handed it to Zhong Ling. And said to Zhong Ling: "Zhong Ling, you are my disciple, although this tower is a treasure of the academy, but now the hostile forces outside are very strong, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not come to take the tower again." You take the key and open the secret room to temporarily subdue the tower so that you can better protect it. ”

"Master, you can keep it yourself, why do you want me to take it?" Zhong Ling looked at the key and asked Lan Yun puzzled.

"I'm almost that old. I don't know how long I will live, and when I die, these treasures will still be in your hands. It's better to let you take it now, so that you have a longer time and opportunity to fulfill the owner's wishes. Lan Yun touched Zhong Ling's hair and said softly.

Zhong Ling shouted with tears in her eyes: "Master!" Although she has been with Lan Yun for less than half a year, in her heart, this master is a person who is wholeheartedly good to her like her parents.

"Go ahead, you still have a long way to go, and you still have a lot to do. You have made yourself stronger, and you can also look at peace as a teacher. Lan Yun naturally felt Zhong Ling's mood change and wanted to say more, but time was pressing, and there were still many enemies outside the tower, so he had to urge Zhong Ling to open the door.

"Yes, master!" Zhong Ling wiped his tears and took the key to open the door of the secret room.

As soon as the door of the secret room opened, a beam of white light shot out, enveloping Zhong Ling and bringing him into the secret room, and then the door closed again.

An hour later, the door to the chamber opened again. Zhong Ling returned to his original position in front of the door with a strange expression.

Lan Yun hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Xiao Ling, how is it?"

Zhong Ling already said with a strange expression: "Master, I have gained control. ”

"What is the mission of the god man?" Lan Yun, Li Dewu and Xiao Li asked at the same time.

"His wish is that I must bring a demon beast that has signed a blood pact with me into the secret room after three years. Only then did I get my hands on the tower completely. Zhong Ling said.

Xiaoxi and Lan Yun knew why Zhong Ling's face was strange, she already had a blood pact with herself, but she was stipulated that it would take three years before she could come here again to gain full control. This god man probably didn't expect that someone who had already obtained the blood contract would open the door when he left his clone.

"Three years is three years. It can't be helped. Lan Yun was also in a happy mood, because she knew that this tower had completely belonged to Zhong Ling, and she didn't run, but she had to wait helplessly for three years.

Xiao Fox jumped on Zhong Ling's shoulder and said, "Xiao Ling, let's see what functions you can control the tower now. ”
