Chapter Ninety-Four: Crisis
Jinglan Ancient City has not been under martial law for many years, and this night when the wind broke out, all the residents were aware of the smell of blood, and for a while, people were panicked, and rumors were everywhere, because Liao Tianxing, the lord of Jinglan City, was angry.
Although the ancient city of Jinglan covers an extremely wide area, there are only two city gates, namely the south gate and the north gate, and after the north gate goes out, you can reach the boundary of the Daluo Empire by walking dozens of miles.
Normally, the North Gate is the place with the most pedestrians, and some merchants and vendors are in and out here, but today it is a different situation, the North Gate is blocked, and everyone is only allowed to enter and exit. Outside the gate, forty blue guards, twenty purple guards, and five black guards stood proudly in the wind, indifferently looking at those who entered, but their faces were expressionless. The same is true at the South Gate. As a result, the city was suddenly overcrowded, many people couldn't even find a place to stay, and some strong people couldn't help but join forces to find Liao Tianxing to reason, but they were all closed.
In the southwest corner of the ancient city of Jinglan, there is a small inn called Qingchen Inn. Although this inn is not large, only three floors, but it is very refreshing and clean, because it is far from the center of the ancient city, it is much quieter, so that people can feel away from the hustle and bustle. In a room on the second floor of the inn, Jiang Hao, Jiang Lie, and Ouyang Xue were all sitting at the round table, looking a little worried.
Jiang Hao tapped his fingers on the table and said softly, "Second brother, you said that Humpty Dumpty yesterday was Liao Tianxing's son?"
Jiang Lie nodded, frowned, and said, "I'm afraid that's the case, his name is Liao Kuan, and he is Liao Tianxing's only son." Now that the north gate and the south gate have been sealed, we may not be able to get out in a short time, and it seems that this time the matter is a bit troublesome. ”
Jiang Hao smiled bitterly and said, "Second brother, blame me for being too impulsive." ”
Ouyang Xue snorted lightly and pretended to complain, "You still know, you know that you are a hero, now it's okay, you can't get out." Otherwise, I will go directly to the City Lord's Mansion to show my identity, and Liao Tianxing will not dare to do anything to us if I think of it. After speaking, Ouyang Xue looked at Jiang Hao with a small mouth.
Jiang Hao shook his head and said, "No, we don't know what kind of person Liao Tianxing is, and besides, we may be worried too much." On a big night, I don't think anyone can see us clearly. Of course, if they do come to the door, then I'm really not afraid of them. As soon as the words came out, Jiang Hao's momentum suddenly spread violently, after a night's rest, Jiang Hao's battle spirit had recovered to its peak, and the intensity seemed to have increased, it seemed that actual combat was indeed the best way to improve strength.
"Second brother, what else have you heard?" Jiang Hao asked again.
Jiang Lie thought for a while and said, "Fourth brother, this black guard is part of the Jinglan Guard, and there is also a red guard on top of it, and it is said that the strength is an existence that has reached the rank of a general. ”
"Warlord, it's a bit of a hassle. Jiang Hao said.
......
In the center of the ancient city of Jinglan, there is a huge and luxurious mansion, which is the city lord's mansion.
In the conference hall, the atmosphere was extremely solemn at this time, there were some old men here, except for the four red guards, the rest were all dressed in white and green shirts, they were all seated, and their eyes were looking at Liao Tianxing, who was in the first place.
"Have you ever found out where the murderer is?" Liao Tianxing said slowly, his eyes narrowed, and there was no expression on his face, not sad or happy, but those who knew him well knew that Liao Tianxing was really angry.
At this time, a silver-haired old man slowly stood up, although he was over the age and his body was a little rickety, but his eyes were unusually bright. He glanced at the other people and said indifferently, "City Lord, according to the full investigation of the old man's subordinates, it has basically been determined that the person who shot is only a teenager, and there are also a man and a woman accompanying him. ”
"Just one person?"
"Yes, according to those onlookers, the young man's body was extremely strange, and he killed the young master and the four black guards in an instant, and the young man should not be in his early tens. The silver-haired old man glanced at Liao Tianxing and said.
Hearing this, Liao Tianxing slowly opened his eyes, and everyone present suddenly felt a tightness on their bodies, and an invisible pressure spread. Liao Tianxing sneered and said, "A young man in his early tens, he instantly killed five battle division powerhouses at the same time, heh, even if everyone here estimates that it is impossible to do it, right? Brother Baishui, didn't you find out where those three people came from?"
The silver-haired old man's name was Bai Shui, and he was also a strong general, and he was one of Liao Tianxing's most trusted people.
Bai Shui shook his head and said, "City Lord, the time is too short, I only know that they should all be from the Fia Empire, and according to the investigation and pursuit, their location has now been basically locked, which is the Qingchen Inn in the southwest corner." ”
"Oh, I already know where they are, very good, Brother Baishui, you can take someone with me, I want to see who that young man is. Liao Tianxing made a move with both hands, a pair of crutches had already reached his hands, the battle spirit lingered, and the next moment his figure had dissipated.
Seeing Liao Tianxing leaving, Bai Shui straightened his body, looked around lightly, his eyes froze, and said, "Come together, I want to take a good look at those who dare to come to our Jinglan Ancient City to make trouble." ”
Everyone present nodded, and they all swept out of the City Lord's Mansion with Bai Shui, heading towards the southwest corner.
......
In the Qingchen Inn, Jiang Hao and the three of them were all cultivating, while Ouyang Xue opened her eyes to look at Jiang Hao from time to time, and then pursed her lips and closed her eyes to continue cultivating.
Suddenly, Jiang Hao opened his eyes violently, stood up, and the next moment his figure had appeared in the window, looking up in the direction of the northeast, his brows furrowed slightly.
"What's the matter, Jiang Hao?" Ouyang Xue immediately noticed Jiang Hao's movements, and then stopped cultivating and asked.
Jiang Hao touched his nose and said curtly, "I'm afraid we're in trouble," Jiang Hao hurriedly said to Jiang Lie, "Second brother, you take Princess Pingtian to leave first, with my figure, they may not be able to catch me, you go first, gather at the north gate." ”
"No, I can't. ”
Ouyang Xue directly blocked in front of Jiang Hao, her face was full of anger, "No matter how high your body is, after all, you are a war master, and the other party is afraid that there is more than one war general-level existence, and you have to go together." ”
Jiang Lie stood up and chuckled, "Fourth brother, second brother won't leave, otherwise you will be beaten by your eldest brother when you go back, heh, even if it is a general, we brothers really have to fight." ”
"Hehe, I'm really sorry, you can't leave now if you want to. Suddenly, a sneer resounded in the room.
Jiang Hao's pupils shrank sharply, and his footsteps moved slightly to block directly in front of Ouyang Xue, looking at the empty space in front of him with a vigilant expression.
"Hehe, it seems that it is really not simple to be able to see through my figure?" Before the words fell, a tall figure had slowly appeared in the air, looking at Jiang Hao with a smile.
Jiang Hao only felt that his scalp was numb for a while, the guy in front of him actually entered the room without him and the others noticing, if he had just made a move, then he and the others would have been a corpse by now.
Jiang Hao didn't speak, at this time Jiang Lie took a step forward and hugged his fists and said, "Dare to ask the senior's surname, why did you come here?"
"Heh, Nine-Star Warrior, the strength is not bad, I think it should be you who makes the shot. Old man Liao Tianxing, as for what to do here, I think you should know. "That's right, it's Liao Tianxing.
Jiang Hao took a step forward and said, "It turned out that the city lord was here, and the three of them just came out to play, I don't know where we offended the city lord, we are just ordinary people, if there is a mistake, I hope that the city lord will have a lot." Although Jiang Hao was apprehensive in his heart, the guy in front of him was at least a general-level existence, but he didn't see anything unusual on his face.
Liao Tianxing glanced at Jiang Hao, among the three of them, Jiang Hao's surface strength was the weakest, just a four-star battle master, so Liao Tianxing didn't take him in his eyes at all, after all, even a nine-star battle master was not his own one-in-one general.
Liao Tianxing sneered and said, "It's not a big deal, any of you killed my son, as long as you give my life back, I can not pursue the others, how about it?"
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Lie and Jiang Hao suddenly clenched their palms, their eyes stared at Liao Tianxing, and their battle qi was slowly released.
"Why, if you want to do it, I advise you to save some effort. The corners of Liao Tianxing's mouth twitched, and his eyes were full of indifference.
Jiang Hao took a deep breath and said, "City Lord, I didn't expect that gentleman to be your son, hey, I would have shown mercy to my subordinates if I knew it." But you should know that if I show mercy, then I may be lying there. So, all I can say is sorry. ”
This time it was Liao Tianxing's turn to be surprised, "What did you say? You killed all five of them, you are only a four-star battle master, how can you be the opponent of my black guards, hmph, you still want to trick me?" Liao Tianxing snorted angrily, and his crutches appeared in his hands, slamming on the ground with a thud.
Jiang Lie hurriedly pulled Jiang Hao, wanting to stop Jiang Hao from talking, Ouyang Xue was also anxious, this Liao Tianxing can be regarded as a famous powerhouse, a veritable warrior and a strong general.
Jiang Hao shook his head, signaled Jiang Lie and Ouyang Xue to rest assured, took a step forward, looked at Liao Tianxing calmly, as if he couldn't feel the momentum of the strong general, and said, "Is the city lord ready to bully the small with the big, yes, Liao Kuan was killed by me, and those black guards were also killed by me, and they have nothing to do with my two friends." ”
Liao Tianxing smiled disdainfully and said, "Heh, don't worry, I don't need to do anything to deal with you, but since you made the move, then you can cut yourself, I won't move your two friends." Liao Tianxing clasped his hands to his chest, without the slightest intention of making a move.
"Hmph, we won't leave, if you want to kill him, first ask me if my whip is allowed?" Before Ouyang Xue's words fell, a whip shadow reached Liao Tianxing's chest.
Liao Tianxing didn't move, he shouted violently, and the next moment Ouyang Xue's body had fallen out like a kite with a broken string, slamming into the wall of the inn, and with a bang, the surrounding walls suddenly shattered, and the wooden chips of tables and chairs were scattered all over the ground.
