Chapter 171: Who is the Anti-Thief?
Before Zhao Changying could think through these questions, Emperor Tianxing made another move. new
His golden eyes stared at Zhao Changying, who was on His Majesty's side, like a stern jailer looking at an unruly prisoner.
I saw him raise his left hand and point at Zhao Changying.
The damaged "Heavenly Dragon Great Array" seemed to have been repaired at this moment.
Several dragons condensed with golden light jumped up from behind the red palace wall, opened their teeth and danced their claws, and swooped towards Zhao Changying's location.
Zhao Changying has already urged the "Nirvana Sutra" to the extreme.
The True Yuan in his body roared and surged, and flames also burst out on his body, forming a red, orange and yellow flame cloak, making him look as majestic as the god of war.
The tip of his spear was equally flaming.
He clenched his spear in both hands and swept towards the golden dragon in front of him.
Although the "Heavenly Dragon Great Array" has a suppressive effect, its restraint effect on the human race is not as fatal as that for the Yin Matter.
In addition, Zhao Changying's Dao rule field has spared no effort.
For a moment, the golden dragon actually stopped, and the front one even burned, turning into golden light chips flying all over the sky.
This was the first time that Emperor Tianxing's attack had failed today.
But his expression did not change, he was still calm, indifferent, and regarded all beings as grass mustards.
With a mechanical movement again, he raised the "Tai'a Sword" and slashed it down gently.
Fairy music played, thunder roared.
It was like the water of the Tianhe River suddenly bursting the embankment, and thousands of golden mangs fell from the sky like a waterfall, surging towards Zhao Changying, who was alone with a spear.
This golden light not only has terrifying coercion, but also purifying power.
It regarded Zhao Changying, who opened the "Dao Rule" realm, as a cancer between the avenues of heaven and earth, and vowed to completely erase him.
Emperor Tianxing's domineering offensive made Zhao Changying feel unprecedented pressure.
His "Dao Rule" was in danger and crumbling.
Even if he had the strong body of a saint powerhouse, his bones inevitably "creaked" under this terrible pressure.
But he still relied on his strong willpower to straighten his spine and knees, and did not bend down or kneel in front of Emperor Tianxing.
His current identity is the lord of Dayan.
How can you grovel to the Emperor of Great Qi and his wife-killing enemies and pay homage?
Zhao Changying took a deep breath and summoned a long whip with a jade handle and a delicate shape from the storage magic weapon.
This is the ancestral famous weapon of the Zhao family in Youzhou - "jade horse whip".
The earliest owner of the "Jade Horse Whip" was named Zhao Ji, who was the third generation of Yan Guogong after the Great Yan descended to Qi.
This person has been riding horses all his life, good at riding horses and whips, bending bows and shooting eagles, but he has neither ambition nor interest in political affairs.
In that year, Zhao Ji galloped across the field and recovered a large area of lost territory occupied by barbarians in the north for Daqi, and was called "Optimus Pillar Stone" and "Great Qi Gate God" by Emperor Qi at that time, which was once passed down as a good story of monarchs and ministers.
The name "jade horse whip" is taken from "try to borrow the king's jade horse whip and command Rong to sit on the Qiong feast".
The meaning of its avenue is also related to "making meritorious contributions and serving the king".
Later, as Zhao Ji cultivated to the ninth realm and became an immortal, his natal magic weapon became one of the "Twelve Famous Weapons of the Great Wilderness", which was passed down from generation to generation by the descendants of the Zhao family.
It's just that in Zhao Changying's generation, this famous "famous weapon" can't find its owner.
The reason is simple.
Just as the owners of the "Amazing Pen" are talented poets, the owners of the "Jade Horse Whip" are also loyal ministers and good generals.
But the current Zhao family is a group of thieves with wolf ambitions.
The "Jade Horse Whip", which had left a brilliant record in the history books, could only lie quietly in Zhao Changying's storage magic weapon to accumulate dust, unable to exert its power.
But no matter what, the "Jade Horse Whip" is a remnant of the Ascended Immortal after all, and it is a lot higher than ordinary weapons in terms of personality alone.
With the idea of "treating a dead horse as a live horse doctor", Zhao Changying decided to try to use the "jade horse whip" to resist the terrifying pressure brought by the "Tai'a Sword".
However, as soon as he saw the light of day, the "jade horse whip" seemed to be shocked by the "Tai'a Sword", became dim, and hung down on his stomach.
And that's not all.
Its weight also doubled several times in an instant, as if it wanted to bend Zhao Changying's knees and make him kneel towards Emperor Tianxing.
"It's the opposite, it's the opposite, this magic weapon is the opposite." Zhao Changying scolded in his heart.
The whip of the "Jade Horse Whip" shook at him, as if dissatisfied with his accusation, and said irritably: "You are reversed, your whole family is reversed." ”
Zhao Changying snorted coldly and put it back into the storage magic weapon.
At the same time, he clenched his spear and jumped forward, and in this extremely disadvantaged situation, he launched an active attack on Emperor Tianxing!
Looking at it from afar, his whole person was like a fiery red comet, smashing towards the front of the Qianyang Palace with the momentum of overwhelming mountains and seas, as if to turn this brilliant and magnificent house into ruins.
However, don't look at Zhao Changying's posture of looking at death as if he were at home and fighting against the water, but in fact, he has quietly built a spatial passage in his "Dao Rule" and is preparing to escape from the imperial city.
At this moment, in Zhao Changying's heart, reason has slightly extinguished the flame of hatred.
Emperor Tianxing's strength was much stronger than he imagined.
Even if he broke through the eighth realm and united with the Ghost King of Pishan, he couldn't help him at all.
So Zhao Changying understood that it was time to escape.
Stay in the green mountains, don't worry about no firewood.
Although he has already left a request, claiming that if he does not get out of the imperial city alive, then his daughter Zhao Yan will inherit everything he has in the north.
But he knew very well that after today, the Great Qi Imperial Court would definitely take thunderous measures to deal with the Zhao family in Youzhou who dared to rebel - just like the Lu family in Qingzhou back then.
If he really died, with his daughter's not strong arms, how could he support the Great Yan Kingdom, which had an unstable foundation?
So he had to get out alive.
However, the Emperor of Heaven was already aware of his small movements.
When Zhao Changying built the space passage and was about to plunge into it, the entrance to the passage was blocked by an invisible wall.
He slammed into the invisible wall, causing a sharp pain in his forehead.
If it weren't for the fact that he had the body of an indestructible saint, I am afraid that a huge lump would have appeared on his head.
Zhao Changying's heart suddenly cooled in half.
He thought that his spatial passage was very hidden, but he didn't expect it to be discovered.
He seemed to have become a grasshopper in a cage, no matter how he jumped, he couldn't get out of the control of Emperor Tianxing.
"What should I do?" Zhao Changying thought to herself restlessly.
He wanted to turn around and run away, but since the "Heavenly Dragon Great Array" had basically been repaired by Emperor Tianxing, many golden dragons surrounded him, blocking his way.
He also wanted to take out a unique "Blood Phoenix Nirvana Pill" of the Youzhou Zhao Clan, swallow it into his abdomen, stimulate the potential of his body, and burst out with extremely terrifying combat power in a short period of time, killing a bloody path.
However, the side effects of the "Blood Phoenix Nirvana Pill" are very obvious - after the effect of the medicine, the cultivation will drop by a realm, and it may not be able to recover for a lifetime.
Just as he was hesitating, Emperor Tianxing had already raised the "Tai'a Sword" again and waved it lightly.
Suddenly, rolling golden thunder fell from the sky and slammed into his body.
Even though the saint's body was extremely strong, under the attack of this golden divine thunder, he still couldn't help but have his skin and flesh blooming and blood flowing everywhere.
It's not just flesh wounds.
Even the five internal organs and six internal organs, the eight veins of the strange meridians, were also split into thousands of holes and split into a sieve. The scorching True Yuan flowed out like a flood, causing the surrounding grass and trees to catch fire.
Zhao Changying hadn't experienced this feeling of being seriously injured for too long.
He was covered in blood and stood in the midst of thunder.
His legs were paralyzed and he was in severe pain.
But he still gritted his teeth and tried his best to keep his waist straight.
He knew he couldn't fall. Dayan won't allow him to fall here.
Inadvertently, an inexplicable thought popped up in his head: Those monks who were about to ascend to the immortal realm, would they also have such an experience when they survived the thunderstorm of nine deaths?
However, at this moment, there was an inexplicable attraction behind him.
Immediately afterward, he was jerked backwards, as if he had fallen into a bottomless pit. The scene in all directions turned into blurry blocks of color, crumpled together, and it was dizzying like a kaleidoscope.
Zhao Changying immediately realized that he had entered the spatial passage.
"What the hell is going on?" He frowned, feeling very confused, "The passage I built just now has clearly been blocked by the Tianxing Emperor...... Why can I come in again now?
"No, wait, no! The entrance to the space I constructed, located directly in front of me, is hidden in my 'Dao Rule Domain'. But the entrance to this passage is directly behind me.
"This is not a spatial passage that I built!
"Someone should have saved me, saved me under the nose of Emperor Tianxing......"
Before Zhao Changying could analyze the current situation, he had already fallen out of the space passage, and his whole body slammed into the hard ground.
He raised his head with difficulty, and at a glance he saw the southern gate of Luojing, as well as the stumps and broken arms all over the ground, dripping with blood.
This made him reassured that he had been saved.
Because of the spatial passage he constructed himself, the destination was to the north of Luojing, a hundred miles away from the North City Gate.
"I'm really curious who my savior is," he thought, "and he can send me away from the spatial passage silently in front of Emperor Tianxing...... That person's strength must have far surpassed that of a saint......"
At this moment, a team of black-clothed monks hurried to Zhao Changying's side from not far away.
"Grandpa Guo...... No, your king, you're all right! The leader squatted down and looked at Zhao Changying's bruised appearance, with a worried look on his face.
This person's name is "Cai Shuo", he has the sixth realm cultivation, is proficient in marksmanship, and serves as the head of the Yandi army.
Zhao Yan has been learning martial arts from him when he was young.
Before today's incident, Zhao Changying had arranged for this Cai Jiaotou to escort Zhao Yan back to Youzhou.
But he didn't expect that the last person who needed to be escorted was himself.
"Also...... Why don't you take the 'Broken Void Bead'! Zhao Changying said dying, "You want to look at Ben...... Is this king alive or dead in front of you? ”
Zhao Changying, as a powerhouse in the eighth realm, did not have the habit of carrying the "Breaking Void Bead" with him. It's just that now his meridians are broken, his true yuan is lost, and he is no longer able to build a spatial channel by himself and return to Youzhou.
The "Broken Sky Beads" in Cai Shuo's hands, which were originally prepared for his daughter, turned out to be his life-saving straw.
Hearing his words, Cai Shuo was startled, and hurriedly took out a "Broken Void Bead" and handed it to him.
"By the way, Cai Shuo," when he was about to leave, Zhao Changying asked again, "Yan'er...... Did she come here to find you? ”
Cai Shuo shook his head and replied, "Back to the king, my subordinates didn't see Miss...... No, Your Highness the Princess. ”
Cai Shuo was clearly not quite comfortable with these new titles.
"That'...... Then you stay here and continue to wait for her," Zhao Changying instructed, "Remember to hide your whereabouts so that no one will find out." After all, we are now anti-thieves in the eyes of the Great Qi Imperial Court.
"In case someone finds out, don't go to fight, you must use the 'Broken Sky Bead' to escape back to Youzhou quickly."
"But in that case...... What about Her Royal Highness the Princess? ”
"Yan'er is a smart person, and she won't put herself in danger easily," Zhao Changying replied weakly, "But Da Yan, now that the country is in a difficult situation, we can't afford to lose your talents." ”
Cai Shuo nodded heavily, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help but moisten slightly.
…………
Luojing City.
Gu Xu held the talisman seal in one hand and the astrolabe in the other, walking through the streets and alleys, fulfilling the duty of the officials of the Exorcism Department to kill ghosts and save people.
When he saw the evil ghosts chasing the common people, he lightly threw a "Taishang Arctic Town Demon Slaying Talisman" over and burned them to black ashes.
When he encountered something a little more difficult to deal with, he would either use the True Yuan Fire, or the "Burning Sky Seven Style", or the "Star Array".
In order to speed up the efficiency of exterminating the ghosts, he even summoned two paper doppelgangers, and asked them to each hold a stack of talismans and go in different directions.
Looking at this city full of ghosts and corpses, Gu Xu sighed, and suddenly understood Zhao Yan's mood-
When his father colluded with ghosts and became an indirect murderer who killed hundreds of people, this is undoubtedly an unacceptable thing for a person with a conscience.
However, just as Gu Xu was about to throw the "Ghost Killing Talisman" in his hand at a few "ghosts" in front of him, a pale golden light like smoke and mist suddenly rose on the ground.
The ghost in front of him, and all the ghosts in the entire street, suddenly set themselves on fire in a neat manner, and after a few seconds, they all turned to ashes.
Faintly, Gu Xu could still hear the distant sound of the dragon's groan.
"Is this ...... the 'Heavenly Dragon Great Array' has returned to normal?" He thought in surprise.
He took a deep breath.
The goblin is dead.
The disaster is over.
As an official of the Exorcism Division, he can finally rest for a while.
On this day, I experienced the dragon battle in the "Heavenly Dragon Secret Realm", experienced the breakthrough of the realm in the imperial library, experienced the cross-border battle of Lirenfang, and then slashed the demons all the way...... Gu Xu was already feeling physically and mentally exhausted.
He planned to go to see Shi Xiaohan's condition first, and then return to his mansion and sleep happily.
He had set up one defensive circle after another in his house - as long as he didn't run into a particularly powerful goblin, he should be able to survive this disaster.
It will not be like those ordinary houses, which will become ruins.
He turned a corner and came to a street, where he saw a group of soldiers in silver armor walking towards him.
The man at the head was tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and a sharp halberd in his hand, which looked majestic and imposing, and people did not dare to look at it directly.
This person Gu Xu knows.
It was none other than the Praetorian Guard Commander Wang Guanyu, a powerful Sixth Realm cultivator.
When Shouchangfang opened for business before, and when he was engaged to Shi Xiaohan, the royal commander sent congratulatory gifts.
Gu Xu was going to say hello to him politely as usual.
Unexpectedly, the king commander had a blue face, stretched out his hand to point at him, and shouted: "The national thief is here, take it down for me!" ”
Before the words fell, several silver-armored monks next to him rushed towards Gu Xu like arrows from the string, blocking his way in all directions.
The swords in their hands pointed at Gu Xu's chest.
Faced with such a situation, even if Gu Xu had wisdom far beyond ordinary people, he was a little confused for a while.
Could it be because he stayed with Zhao Yan before, causing the court to think that he was colluding with the thieves?
He immediately raised his hands and said with a bitter smile: "Lord Wang, I think there must be some misunderstanding here. ”
But Wang Guanyu didn't pay attention to his words at all.
"Formation!" He commanded the silver-armored monks, "Swiftly take this thief to the Imperial City!" ”_&
