Chapter 13: The Siege

"But this matter still has to be considered in the long run, after all, the Underworld Blood Temple seems to know about this matter as well." An Bai guessed.

Li Qing nodded, and from the fact that the other party sent someone to intercept and kill the Luo family brothers and sisters, he knew that the other party knew the situation of the spirit stone vein before them.

It's just that he inadvertently rescued the Luo family brothers and sisters and others, which allowed the Luo family brothers and sisters to send the spirit stone to Xiangwang's Mansion.

According to Li Qing's judgment, King Xiang's coma was most likely related to this incident, and most of the time the other party was afraid that the matter would be revealed.

And he didn't dare to make a big move, after all, this was still the sphere of influence of the Changfeng Sword Sect.

It's just that the people of the Underworld Blood Hall who are in charge of this matter probably don't know that this Jin Kingdom has always had a close relationship with the Changfeng Sword Sect, and its monarch can use Yugui Qianli to transmit a message to the Changfeng Sword Sect.

Although the monarch of the Jin Kingdom did not know about the spirit stone mine, he just wanted the Changfeng Sword Sect to send someone to treat King Xiang.

That's what happened next, but I have to say that all this is too much of a coincidence.

This can only be said to be too much of a coincidence.

Of course, I am afraid that these alone may not necessarily lead to the revelation of the matter, and the most important thing is that Li Qing also came to Shangjing with An Bai by chance, and only then did he discover the other party's scheme.

"But An Daoyou, if you can, it's best to ask the sect for help first. I'm worried that if this matter really has something to do with the Spirit Stone Mine, I'm afraid the Underworld Blood Temple won't give up easily.

And when the blood mark was broken just now, most of them already knew about the existence of you and me.

In case the other party jumps over the wall and wants to cover up the truth, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you and me to compete. ”

Li Qing voiced his concerns.

It was normal for him to have this kind of concern, and the benefits of an undeveloped spirit stone mine were huge. It means hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of spirit stones every year.

Not to mention Li Qing himself, even behemoths like the Changfeng Sword Sect and the Underworld Blood Hall can't be ignored.

"Okay, I'll inform the sect now."

An Bai also felt that Li Qing was reasonable, so he took out a jade plaque and closed his eyes and held it in the palm of his hand, and after a few breaths, he opened his eyes again, and said with an ugly face.

"Someone has set up a large array around to interfere with the transmission of information, and the information cannot be transmitted."

"The Great Array?"

Li Qing jumped, a little incredulous.

An Bai didn't answer, just nodded.

At this moment, the door of the hall was suddenly opened, and the chamberlain Huang Quan led a general in armor to run in in a hurry, kneeling on the ground and shouting eagerly.

"Your Majesty, something is wrong!"

"What's the matter? Why are you so flustered? ”

The monarch of the Jin Kingdom looked at Huang Quan, who was kneeling on the ground, and asked, his face was very bad.

"Back to Your Majesty, there is a large army gathered outside the Imperial City, and now the Imperial City has been surrounded. And...... And look at the banner is the Tiger Wei Army and the Crane Control Army in the Six Guards of Shangjing. ”

The general who was brought in by Huang Quan immediately replied.

"Bastard, do you know what you're talking about? Shangjing Liuwei did not have the will of Lonely, how could he be transferred for no reason. ”

The monarch of the Jin Kingdom stood up suddenly, just wanting to ask someone to pull this alarmist person out.

However, Li Qing and An Bai glanced at each other, and saw the incredible in each other's eyes.

Then the two of them rushed out of the palace together and jumped onto the roof of the palace, and the next moment Li Qing and An Bai saw a huge light curtain upside down above the imperial city, enveloping the entire imperial city in it.

And outside the big array, there are many soldiers and horses gathered.

No wonder the information could not be transmitted, it turned out that someone took advantage of their inattention to set up a formation outside the imperial city.

"Li Daoyou, your intuition is right, the other party is menacing!"

An Bai looked at the large array in front of him and said solemnly.

If they could have discovered the truth earlier, they wouldn't have been so passive, and they might have been able to send the message back to the sect first.

But it was too late, and the entire palace was enveloped in a large array. The only way to break through the big array and go beyond the coverage of the big array to deliver the news to the Changfeng Sword Sect.

"An Daoyou, this big array rising silently did not alarm us, it doesn't seem like a temporary arrangement."

Li Qing looked at the panicked figures everywhere in the palace and thought.

"That's the only possibility."

An Bai nodded in agreement, it was difficult for the large array to cover the entire palace in a short period of time.

So there is only one possibility, the big array is arranged in advance.

Moreover, the other party also has two Jin armies, and from this point of view, it is obvious that the Underworld Blood Temple has been in operation for a long time, and it is impossible to do it overnight.

However, in this way, Li Qing and An Bai also realized another problem.

The arrangement of the Underworld Blood Temple in Shangjing may not be for the Spirit Stone Mine, but for other reasons.

The Stygian Blood Temple may have only learned the news of the Spirit Stone Mine not long ago, and the news of the Spirit Stone Mine was just as coincidental as theirs.

This is good news, which means that the Immortal Blood Temple may not have a large number of people in Shangjing.

At least I didn't have to face a large number of Immortal Blood Temple monks at the same time, which was a blessing in misfortune.

Looking at the light curtain above his head, Li Qing's mood was extremely complicated, if he had been honest and separated from An Bai in Donglingfang City, he might not have faced the current situation.

But the choice has been made, and things have happened.

No matter how much you regret it now, it is useless, it is better to join forces with An Bai and the two of them to find a way to save themselves.

"An Daoyou, I don't know much about the formation, except that I can see that this is a difficult formation, I don't know much about the others.

I wonder if you can see something? ”

Being a casual cultivator is not good at this, and the knowledge is very lacking. Except for some foundations, Li Qing didn't know anything about formations. After watching it for a long time, I didn't see anything famous, so I could only hope for An Bai.

"It's indeed a yellow-rank lower-grade trapped array, but a yellow-rank lower-grade magic array covers such a large area, and there will definitely be some omissions.

Using the Delusion Destroying Eye should be able to quickly find out the weak points of the formation. ”

An Bai is worthy of being a disciple of the Great Sect and has received a systematic education.

Therefore, he judged the grade of the large array at a glance, and found that the strength of the magic circle was not enough.

"Okay, An Daoyou, you just need to break the formation with peace of mind, and I will protect the Fa for you."

Li Qing breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, fortunately he would not become a turtle in the urn.

However, he also knew that it was difficult for An Bai to be distracted when he used the magic eye, so he took the initiative to take on the task of guarding.

"Trouble Li Daoyou!"

Now that the situation is in crisis, there is not much time for them to communicate in detail, so after assigning their respective tasks, the two of them enter the state.

An Bai also opened the Delusion Breaking Magic Eye again, constantly scanning the big array, looking for the weak point of the formation.

Li Qing was guarding the surroundings with the Flowing Cloud Sword in his hand, and he could think that the Underworld Blood Hall would allow them to calmly break through the formation.

Sure enough, just as Li Qing's eyes were looking around, he saw three figures coming from a distance.

However, in a dozen breaths, three figures landed on the top of another palace with only one palace wall with Li Qing and them.

The first person was wearing a purple python robe, and the other two were wearing fiery red Immortal Blood Temple costumes.

It seems that he is really a monk of the Underworld.

Although facing the three of them at the same time, Li Qing was a little stunned. But now the situation can only be hard to buy time for An Bai as much as possible.

Li Qing clenched the hilt of his sword and looked at the three of them vigilantly, and his other hand was also full of various talismans, ready to fight them at any time.

"It's you, a rebel, who gave you the courage to gather an army to besiege the imperial city!"

However, just as the two sides were tense, an extremely angry voice came from the palace below.

Li Qing looked down and saw that in the open space in front of the palace, the monarch of the Jin State was scolding at the python-robed young man under the protection of a group of chamberlains and palace guards.

That python-robed young man is the son of the monarch of the Jin Kingdom? Li Qing was a little incredulous when he saw this absurd scene.

However, judging from the other party's clothing alone, it is indeed a princely specification, and there are also monks in the royal family of the Jin Kingdom?

Li Qing was silent, and his head was a little confused at this time.

However, the next scene made Li Qing's eyes widen, and the young man in the python robe only smiled coldly when he heard these words.

His face changed for a while, and after a few breaths, he turned into another person.

"You're looking at who I am!"

The young man in the python robe looked playfully at the stunned monarch of the Jin Kingdom below.

"You ......"

When the monarch of the Jin Kingdom saw this unbelievable scene, he was unbelievable, and finally retreated again and again.

However, the python-robed young man's face squirmed again, and he regained his previous appearance.

Then he glanced at one of the cardinals beside him.

The red-clothed monk immediately understood the meaning, shook the long sword in his hand, and jumped directly towards the place where the monarch of the Jin Kingdom was.

And the monarch of the Jin Kingdom immediately panicked when he saw this scene, and kept retreating under the support of a group of chamberlains and guards.

"Immortal Chief, save me!"

Perhaps seeing the red-clothed monk approaching, the monarch of the Jin Kingdom was very flustered and turned his head to Li Qing for help.

……

Li Qing was quite speechless when he saw this scene, why did you say that you are so dignified to provoke others?

However, Li Qing was also surprised that the Underworld Blood Hall had unknowingly replaced a prince of the Jin Kingdom, and he didn't know what to do.

As for Li Qing, the monarch of the Jin Kingdom, there is really nothing he can do, and his first task is to protect An Bai.

If you die, you have to take responsibility for yourself, and you can't see the situation clearly, and you can't see the situation clearly, and you can't jump out and make nonsense, and you don't know how you became the king.

Li Qing shook his head and ignored the desperate shouting below.

Returning his gaze to the python-robed youth and the other cardinal.

However, the python-robed young man looked at An Bai behind Li Qing suspiciously, especially when he found that An Bai was constantly scanning the big array with his eyebrows, and immediately frowned and realized something.

So the young man in the python robe stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of Li Qing.

The remaining red-clothed monk jumped directly high and easily landed on the top of the palace where Li Qing and them were, and the next moment there was no warning to kill Li Qing.

Li Qing glanced back at An Bai and saw that he was still using the magic eye to probe the surroundings, knowing that it was not the time to disturb the other party.

So the Liuyun Sword in his hand shook and took the initiative to meet the attack of the Cardinal Monk and stopped him.

The two quickly fought together, and the killing was inseparable.

I thought it would be a difficult showdown, but after a few rounds, Li Qing felt that the strength of this red-clothed monk was not strong.

There is only a fifth-level cultivation of Qi training, and when the three of them arrived just now, except for the python-robed young man who was flying with the sword, the other two jumped on the top of the palace.

I immediately realized in my heart, and I also had more confidence.
