Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 inforeadx;?“ Since you are begging for benevolence, I will help you become benevolent," Shangguan Xiu's eyes flashed with a cold glint, his wrist flipped, he held the Mo knife upside down, aimed it at the young man's chest, and stabbed it hard,
burst
The young man's wild laughter stopped abruptly, his eyes gradually covered with a layer of dead ash, and his body jerked violently twice, and then there was no movement.
Shangguan Xiu drew his knife and waved his hand to the side, the spirit swept back, turned into aura, and drilled into his body, he closed his eyes, and the spiritual power that was released could clearly feel that the last of the five spiritual cultivators was running quickly,
It's just that the direction of his escape is not the palace, but the slums in the west of the city.
If Shangguan Xiu chases him now, he will definitely be able to catch up with him, but it will be delayed for a long time, he pondered for a moment, gave up the pursuit, and hurried straight in the direction of the palace.
The cultivator had been fleeing into the center of the west of the city, shuttling quickly in the small alley to make sure that he was not being followed, his figure suddenly flickered, and he flashed into a desolate and inconspicuous small courtyard.
He walked quickly through the courtyard and into the main house, the candlestick in the house was not lit, it was pitch black, but through the faint moonlight outside the window, he could still see a person sitting cross-legged on the kang collapse, this person was dressed in black, and his face was completely hidden in the darkness.
When the cultivator came in, he slowed down, stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and said, "Elder,"
"Well," the man in black just replied softly and asked, "How are things going?"
"I'll wait...... We have not been able to stop Shangguan Xiu, and the four brothers under him have ...... They all died at the hands of Shangguan Xiu,"
"This is not unexpected," the man in black smiled indifferently and said, "Shangguan Xiu is already a cultivator of the spirit and blood leaving the realm, and he is also a spirit and god physique, and he is also a wind cultivator, it is as difficult as ascending to the sky if only a few of you want to kill him, but the speed of his injuries and healing is unexpected,"
How heavy Shangguan Xiu's injuries were, he knew very well that if his injuries did not heal, it would never be possible to defeat Zhan Xiang's five disciples, but such a serious injury had only been more than a month, and it was still in his hurry to leave, all of them had healed, it was incredible,
"The medicinal power of Tianxiang Cardamom and Blood Spirit Pill is extraordinary, this son must not be kept, otherwise, he will become a fierce enemy of the temple," the man in black slowly raised his head, in the dark, he couldn't see his facial features clearly, he could only see a pair of eyes that were amazingly bright,
The cultivator's body was shocked, and he hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to face it.
"Your master, where is it now?"
"Returning to the elder, the master is in the capital city, but where it is, the subordinates don't know, according to the subordinates, the first target of the master should be the emperor of the Wind Country,"
"Haha," the man in black looked up and smiled, and said: "This is in line with Zhan Ming's personality of retribution, if Zhan Xiang kills Tang Ling, it will be a hundred times more serious than Zhan Xiang 'killing' Lin Zhun, the people of Shenchi, don't want to stay out of the matter anymore, when the time comes, Shenchi and Xuanling Palace will be in full swing, Fengguo and Ningnan are already in chaos, the battle between Shenchi and Xuanling Palace will only make this chaos even worse, making this chaos even more chaotic, this is a good opportunity that we have been waiting for for many years, the chaos is monstrous, the gods are in the sky, the sky is reckless, the nine-in-one Kuang, haha——"
The spiritual cultivator knelt down on one knee and intervened and said, "My subordinates swear allegiance to the temple to the death, and they will not give up,"
The man in black restrained his smile and waved his hand lightly, and the cultivator hurriedly stood up, bowed deeply again, and then exited the room.
Let's talk about Shangguan Xiu, he ran to the palace, the closer he got to the palace, the more rebels numbered, almost to the point where it was difficult to move an inch.
At this moment, a bright light suddenly rose into the air to his left, and that bright light exploded in the air, turning into a cloud of red fireworks.
Shangguan Xiu couldn't help frowning after seeing it, others may not know this firework, but he couldn't know it very well, it was the distress letter cannon released by the disciples of Shura Hall under the urgency of 100,000 people.
Moreover, looking at the direction of the fireworks, it was lifted off from inside the Zhenguo Mansion, and it was obvious that someone from the Zhenguo Mansion was asking for help.
He raised his eyes and looked at the palace, around the palace, the artillery fire was in the sky, the gunfire was like bursting beans, obviously the defenders in the palace were fighting fiercely with the rebels outside, listening to the sound of guns, the two sides were fighting fiercely, and in a short time, the rebels may not be able to break through the palace city defense,
Shangguan Xiu's heart quickly made a judgment, and then his body turned, and he flew towards the Zhenguo Mansion instead,
Now, the outside of the Zhenguo Mansion is also full of rebels, and the plaque above the main gate has been knocked down by the rebels and trampled into countless pieces.
In the back house of the Zhenguo Mansion, there is a large group of Shura Hall disciples who are desperately resisting the swarming rebels, and it is Tang Mingzhu who is protected by everyone.
There were too many rebels rushing over all around, killing a group, rushing up, they fought and retreated, and retreated all the way from the back house to a side courtyard.
At this point, the Shura Hall personnel had no way to retreat, so they could only fight to the death.
Bang bang bang, the rebels rushed over and opened fire at the same time, and several Shura Hall disciples who were blocking the door were hit by the projectiles that flew towards them, and people were covered in blood and fell to the ground.
Tang Mingzhu, who was not yet fourteen years old, was calm, her gloomy little face did not show any panic, and she shouted loudly: "Don't block in front of the door, hide to both sides, let the rebels in, and do hand-to-hand combat with the rebels,"
These Shura Hall disciples are all Tang soldiers, and they are all spiritual cultivators, they don't use firearms, to be precise, their ammunition has long been used up, and now they can only rely on spirit soldiers to fight the rebels hand-to-hand.
In accordance with Tang Mingzhu's order, people avoided the door side of the side courtyard one after another.
A large number of rebels poured in from outside the door, but as soon as they entered, the Tang troops on both sides rushed up and burst into the crowd of rebels.
Soon, the rebels organized a second round of attack, this time the rebels rushed in more numerous, and after another bloody battle, the Tang army once again killed the rebels out.
At this time, in the side courtyard, the ground was stacked with corpses, that is, there were Tang soldiers and rebels, blood flowed like a river, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder smoke and blood.
Tang Mingzhu's expression was still calm, but her pale little face reflected the tension in her heart.
"Roar—"
After the second round of attack was killed and retreated, the rebels did not immediately do the third round of attack, and a large number of rebels gathered outside the side courtyard, shouting in unison,
With a creaking sound, behind the rebel crowd, more than a dozen rebels pushed out two cannons,
The artillery was mounted in front of the side courtyard, and some rebels who could operate the artillery hurriedly loaded the artillery, and then aimed it at the courtyard in front of it, and lit the fuse.
Boom, boom, with two loud bangs, the two guns fired together, and the two shells shot out of the muzzle, pierced through the courtyard wall, and fell into the courtyard.
After a while, boom, two loud bangs sounded at the same time, two shells exploded in the courtyard, and at least seven or eight Tang soldiers were killed on the spot.
Even Tang Mingzhu in the distance was affected by the artillery fire, and was hit by the oncoming heat wave and retreated again and again, his hair fell down, and his little face became black and white.
"Wind, wind, wind—"
The rebels outside witnessed the power of the artillery, their morale was greatly boosted, and they shouted in unison, and at the same time, the artillerymen did a second round of reloading of the artillery, and after loading the ammunition, two rebels with torches walked up to the cannon and lit the fuse again.
"Wind, wind, wind—" The nearby rebel shouts grew louder and soared into the sky,
For the Tang troops who were stubbornly defending in the side courtyard, the appearance of artillery almost made them despair,
At this moment, a broken shout came from the sky: "You are also worthy of shouting the wind horn,"
Before the words fell, two narrow wind blades swept over, and two crisp clicks were heard, and the two rebels who had just lit the fuse were cut off by the waist, and a white shadow fell from the sky, he fell to the middle of the two cannons, his arms were stretched out to the left and right, and his palms buckled the cannon body, the force was so great that the fingers formed by the spirit armor were deeply embedded in the barrel, he broke off, raised his arms, and the two cannons were lifted up by him.
Boom, boom,
The fuse burned to the end, the artillery fire was sprayed, this time the two shells did not hit the side courtyard, but went straight into the air, and many rebels nearby were stunned and stupid by this sudden appearance, and people blurted out exclaimed: "What person,"
"The one who wants your life," suddenly fell from the sky, and the one who appeared among the rebels was not a bystander, it was Shangguan Xiu, and while he spoke, the Mo knife was swung out in the air, and the spirit was extremely chaotic, and the rebels standing near him were suddenly blown by the wind blade and a large number of people,
The surrounding rebels came back to their senses, and the people roared in unison, rushing towards Shangguan Xiu together, and at the same time, the sound of fire guns was like bursting beans, and the wings behind Shangguan Xiu were wrapped forward, blocking the projectiles shooting from all directions.
Click, the crowd of people swarming around Shangguan Xiu, and stabbed him with a cold and shining sword,
Shangguan Xiu didn't fight back, but just used his wings to protect himself, and at this moment, the two round cannonballs fell sharply from the air and just smashed into the crowd on both sides of Shangguan Xiu.
Boom, boom, two cannonballs exploded in the center of the crowd, and in an instant, within five meters of Shangguanxiu's left and right sides, they all turned into a sea of fire, and people's screams and wails were connected into one.
It was only at this time that the wings on Shangguan Xiu's body were stretched, and on the wings, there was still a phosphorus fire that was still burning, and the original white wings seemed to have turned into fire wings.
Shangguan Xiu didn't even look at the charred corpses around him, he walked towards the crowd in front of him step by step, and said in a cold voice: "The national war is at the head, you are waiting for the opportunity to make trouble, how can you still be a wind man,"
As he spoke, he swept out with a knife, and a narrow wind blade whistled out, sweeping into the crowd in front of him, and he heard a series of muffled sounds, and more than ten rebels were cut off by the waist.
"Shangguan Xiu, he ...... He's Shangguan Xiu,"
In the crowd, I don't know who was the first to scream, and this voice also made the rebel crowd chaotic.
"Shangguan Xiu—"
"It's Shangguan Xiu who is here-" Some timid rebels, hearing Shangguan Xiu's name, didn't even fight, turned around and ran, since they were bold rebels, they were also frightened and retreated, only those rebels who hated Shangguan Xiu to the core, regardless of the rush to kill, and Shangguan Xiu fought for their lives,
It's just that their performance is more like moths to a fire, Shangguan Xiu is holding a Mo knife, continuously slashing outward, rushing towards his rebels, just like grass mustard, one after another were cut to the ground, and soon, the corpses around Shangguan Xiu have been stacked on top of each other, spreading several layers,
