Chapter 103: Abnormal Reaction

The world is impermanent.

Just when billions of trillions of living beings were abandoning their previous suspicions for Shangguan Sect and Liu Zong, and making a pair of golden boys and jade girls finally become dependents, a terrible catastrophe befell Shangguan Sect who was caught in the carnival of the clan day.

No one knows the beginning, and no one sees the process, just sixty years ago, on that clan day of celebration, a strong man from another county who came to visit saw with his own eyes that at the scene of the clan banquet, more than 700 men and women of the Shangguan clan were all lying in a pool of blood.

In the clan, the Yuanshi, Yuanshao, Yuanzhi and a small number of ordinary people still left a whole corpse, and the strong people from the Yuanshi to the Yuanjue rank ended miserably, and all turned into blood or meat sauce all over the ground.

The two Yuan Heng and nearly 100 Yuan Zai disappeared collectively, and after being searched by the powerful people of the imperial county government to no avail, they were recognized as having been destroyed on the spot, and were officially declared dead.

There were nearly 1,000 people in the entire family, and only one pregnant woman who did not attend the banquet and Shangguan, the young sect master who had returned late from a date with Liu Rusi, survived.

The pregnant woman was Shangguan Wei's sister-in-law, and she died a month later after giving birth.

There are large areas of geometric patterns on the grass and bare soil at the disaster site, and people can't see which force easily destroyed Shangguan Zongmanmen, but they made a preconceived prediction in their hearts: only Liu Zong can do it!

Subsequently, bits and pieces of clues surfaced one after another.

In the forest less than 300 meters away from the place of the incident, the county government patrol found a jade pendant, which was identified as coming from Liu Zong; On the day of the clan day, several groups of strong people outside the sect saw the six Yuan Zai of Liu Sect appear in the surrounding area of Shangguan Sect in several different places; Three days before the incident, a Liu Sect Yuanzai was dissatisfied with the marriage between his sect and Shangguan Sect, and openly cursed the Shangguan clan in front of the powerful people outside the sect that they would be punished by heaven······

Shangguan only vows revenge!

His marriage with Liu Rusi has come to an end, and no amount of past fetters can melt away the decision at the time of breakup, and no amount of explanation is a deaf ear.

Shangguan Wei went to Nanhai County and became a hidden cultivator.

Liu Rusi, who knew nothing about the Shangguanzong disaster, was discouraged, resolutely severed the relationship with the Liu family, and traveled without a trace.

Who would have thought that three years later, a similar catastrophe would fall on Liu Zong's head again.

At the same scene of the Clan Day feast, more than 700 people were lying in a pool of blood, Yuan Heng and Yuan Zai were collectively missing, and a large area of geometric patterns was also left at the place of the incident.

No one doubted that this was revenge from Shangguan Wei, only three years later, no matter how talented he was, it was impossible for him to quickly break through to become a strong man of Yuanheng.

How could a mere Yuan Zai cause Liu Zong, who has two Yuan Heng and nearly a hundred Yuan Zai, to suffer a catastrophe!

Not only does Shangguan Wei not have this ability, but Shangguan Sect has long ceased to exist, and no other sect in the world has the strength to destroy Liu Sect.

Unless the royal family summons the world's strong people to encircle and suppress Liu Zong, no one can destroy Liu Zong.

As a result, people can only look for answers in those strange geometric patterns, but find nothing······

Huo Xu knew these past events of Shangguan Zong and Liu Zong, and also knew that after Shangguan Wei went to Nanhai County, due to a breakthrough, he was eaten by the thunder energy, and his strength was forever fixed at the level of the peak Yuanzai, and he had to go to the Evil Cold Valley to hibernate, and was isolated from the world from then on.

But he didn't know that Liu Rusi had achieved an amazing breakthrough soon after fighting with Jukui and was promoted to a nine-star Yuanjue in one fell swoop, but after more than 60 years, her strength was still at the level of a one-star Yuanjue, which became a puzzling suspense.

Of course, what puzzled Huo Xu the most was that Shangguan Qingyun's father, as a posthumous son, experienced what kind of catastrophe twenty years ago, and let his son follow in his footsteps and become a posthumous son?

It was inconvenient for him to ask Shangguan Qingyun, so he had to comfort: "Brother Shangguan, there are only man-made disasters in this world, and there is no fate!" Even if there is fate, your fate can be rewritten! ”

With a sigh of relief, Shangguan Qingyun smiled and said, "Accept your auspicious words, Huo Gongzi." ”

There were people on the road panting like oxen.

Hearing the strange noise, Huo Xu turned his head, and an old man in a blue robe stood a few feet behind him, his hands on his hips, and his eyes widened angrily.

Oh, it's in the way! Huo Xu just wanted to dodge and dodge, but the corner of his eye touched the man's white hair and white beard and the five-pointed star on the chest of his robe, as if he had suddenly bumped into the world's great murderer, and his heart was inexplicably filled with a deep sense of hatred, and hatred was mixed in with it.

Huo Xu was stunned on the road, he and this person should have never met, and they met by chance today, but they didn't know where the hatred and hatred in his heart came from.

The one-star Yuan Jue's eyes widened angrily, and his anger overflowed with the fierce light in his eyes, and his face was extremely cold.

Looking at the pair of sharp eyes on the other side, Huo Xu's heart fluttered for a while, and the violent scene that happened in the snowy scenery of Moshan gradually appeared in his mind on a winter day two years ago.

At that time, a strong man appeared like lightning and launched a surprise attack, implanting a touch of winter cold into his soul sea, and Huo Xu almost died.

Although the culprit was hundreds of meters away from him, Huo Xu still knew that that person was also a one-star lord, and he also had white beard and white hair of the same color as the snow, and he had also cast a fierce light full of anger.

The killer two years ago, the blue-robed man now, the physical characteristics of the two are highly overlapped!

"Yes, this is definitely the person who took my life at that time!" Huo Xu thought secretly.

Seeing that Huo Xu didn't react for a long time, the blue-robed old man couldn't help but grin his teeth and shouted: "Where did you come from, a wild boy, dare to block the way in the palace and look for death!" ”

In the face of the enemy, Huo Xu should have been calm and calm, however, the vast hatred raging in his heart seemed to be more than one, no matter how he relieved it, he couldn't control his anxious emotions to vent.

The inexplicable impulse made him clench his fists, and he wanted to go directly to break apart the man's bones, or take out the Xihe sword in the spirit of the matter, and cut off the person's meridians inch by inch.

"Who are you? Dare to shout and drink in the palace forbidden, it seems that the identity is not ordinary, since it is so awesome, and the trail is congested, why not fly over? Don't dare, right? If you don't have the guts, you should learn to be a low-key person! Huo Xu said.

The blue-robed old man was so angry that his pupils suddenly brightened, his nostrils were facing the sky, and the yuan power in his body surged, overflowing out of his body, forming a curtain-like blue light screen.

Shangguan Qingyun didn't expect Huo Xu to react so violently, and he was stunned all of a sudden, but he was stunned for only a second, and he stood firm:

"In accordance with the provisions of Article 5, Paragraph 3 of the Palace Prohibition Regulations of the Xihe Code, anyone who flies over the forbidden place without authorization shall be detained for 20 days with 20 rods and 15 days.

As a one-star valrule, you have to take care of your face, and don't be rash. ”

"You humble clerk, but you know the code by heart, hum, who told you to talk too much!" The blue-robed old man became more and more annoyed, and as the low roar fell, the curtain light screen expanded sharply outward.

"Bang!"

It's just that the energy surge under the emotional out-of-control shook Huo Xu and Shangguan Qingyun violently.

Huo Xu grabbed Shangguan Qingyun's arm tightly, and after flying a few feet away, the two of them landed, supporting each other and staggering a few steps, standing firmly.

Staring at the fearless Huo Xu, the blue-robed old man said word by word: "Tell me your name and origin, I want to see what kind of extraordinary identity makes you arrogant!" ”

Huo Xu lost his mind completely, and shouted loudly: "How old are you!" A one-star lord with low strength, a lot of things inside and outside the palace, he is not a powerful character, his talent is mediocre, and half of his body has been buried in the ground, and his life's cultivation is pitifully low, I am afraid that you will not succeed! ”

Leng looked at Huo Xu from the side, Shangguan Qingyun looked stunned: Which tendon did he make a mistake?

"Whew!" The blue-robed old man roared like a beast, and the light screen trembled violently, as if he wanted to break free from the shackles of the primordial god and rushed out.

The trembling light screen gradually calmed down, and finally dissipated like a silk mist, and the old man tried his best to suppress the anger in his chest, his eyes were cold, and he said in a deep voice:

"The Codex isn't that scary! The cane and detention don't hurt me in the slightest, it's just a little humiliation, yes yes, I'd rather be humiliated than let this wild boy pay a heavy price for his madness! ”

Recovering from his stunned moment, Shangguan Qingyun hurriedly said: "Your Excellency must remain calm, in accordance with the provisions of Article 10, Paragraph 1 of the "Palace Prohibition Regulations" of the "Xihe Code", those who beat people in the forbidden place will be sentenced to one year in prison;

Whoever assaults a person and causes injury shall be sentenced to 10 years' imprisonment; Assault resulting in death shall be punishable by life imprisonment or the death penalty.

The laws of the empire are as strict as a mountain, and Your Excellency is obviously a strong official and will not be ignorant of the law, and if you knowingly commit it, the crime will be increased by one degree! ”

With a cold snort, the blue-robed old man pursed his lips disdainfully and said, "Don't scare Ye Ye with the law, it's useless!" There will be occasional accidents in the forbidden land, for example, I walked too fast, accidentally broke a willow tree, the trunk broke and flew by, and happened to hit this kid's arms and legs, making him become a paralyzed man with all limbs, this is an accident, hehe, I can be exempt from responsibility. ”

"Stop dreaming!" Shangguan Qingyun said in a cold voice: "Your Excellency, you might as well think about it carefully, why is this prince so young, why can he walk freely in the forbidden land?" Can you do it without the emperor's order? If you do to abolish him, it will not be as simple as applying the "Palace Prohibition Regulations" to sentencing.

Once the law of "Ten Heinous Crimes" is violated, the perpetrator will be destroyed and the three tribes will be destroyed! ”

Shangguan Qingyun's voice was not high, but his words fell on the ears of the blue-robed man, and the latter suddenly felt his soul tremble.

The old man in the blue robe didn't take a young scholar in his eyes at all, but he was repeatedly abused by another slightly older clerk, and he was speechless for a while.

For the strong, that clerk had already ended his cultivation career, and he was undoubtedly a very humble existence, but when he served as a volunteer law popularizer, he shook his lips several times, which was extremely fearful.

The white beard trembled slightly, and the blue-robed old man couldn't help but look at Huo Xu carefully.

In terms of appearance, that kid is probably less than sixteen years old, and there are four red bars on the chest of his black robe!

The age of this son and the cultivation are added together, and it is easy for others to guess his origin.

The blue-robed old man almost blurted out the name of the young man who had been ringing through Lofe City recently, but the long-standing arrogance still led his mind to a fork in the road.

He didn't believe that with his identity and strength, he couldn't make a young man beg for mercy!

"Hmph, boy, it doesn't matter who you are, look at the attire, you are obviously not a royal boy, nor are you a palace intern guard, what qualifications do you have to walk around in the forbidden land!

In view of the suspicious deeds, I will teach you a lesson first, and then escort you to the palace for interrogation, which is exactly my duty! ”

Before the words fell, the muffled sound suddenly came, and the Nanbi door slowly opened in the muffled sound.

"This boy is really qualified to haunt the forbidden land." When Qi Liang, the new Gong Zheng and the three-star Yuan Jue of the Gong Zheng Agency, strode out of the Nanbi Gate, he directly slapped the face of the blue-robed old man as soon as he opened his mouth.

Seeing his acquaintance, Huo Xu was stunned, and immediately regained his senses, and just wanted to come close to say hello, but was stopped by Qi Liang with his eyes.

glanced at Qi Liang a few times in a daze, and the blue-robed old man reluctantly saluted: "Qi Gongzheng, what's wrong with the words of your subordinates?" ”

Raising his chin and looking at the blue-robed man with interest, Qi Liang said lightly: "Priest Luo, this palace is not assigning work to his subordinates, how did you come to the forbidden land?" Where does the authority come from to interrogate passers-by? ”

"If Qi Gong Zheng suspects that his subordinates are suspected of trespassing on the forbidden land here, he can go and ask Lord Zhengqing of the Li Domain." The blue-robed old man said coldly.

Qi Liang blinked slightly, and sighed lightly: "Now that the Zongren Mansion is in charge of the palace, the priest Luo is secretly working for the Lord Zhengqing of the Rite Domain, alas, it is unbelievable." ”

"Luo can't figure it out, otherwise, Qi Gong is asking Lord Zhengqing to personally explain this matter to you?" The blue-robed old man said with a smile.

With a pale face, Qi Liang pondered for a moment, and said in an indifferent tone: "Since Priest Luo has been ordered by Lord Zhengqing, it means that there is something important to do, why, don't you leave?" ”

"Farewell."

The blue-robed old man did not give Qi Liang another salute, but stabbed Huo Xu with a cold look, went straight north, and walked unhurriedly in the direction of Lingmen.

Glancing coldly at the old man's back for a while, Qi Liang glanced at Shangguan Qingyun, who waved goodbye to Huo Xu with a playful smile, and then strode into the open Nanbi Gate.

Retracting his gaze from Nanbi Gate, Qi Liang Chonghuo Xu whispered, "Your words are fierce, this is not normal. ”

"Your Excellency is secretly monitoring the palace forbidden land?" Huo Xu asked.

"Surveillance? Oh, that's my duty today. Qi Liang said: "It seems that your intuition is very accurate, that one-star Yuan Jue is a senior priest of the palace administration, named Luo Yi, I guess Counselor Rose must not have had time to explain to you."

The day before the autumn test this year, Luo Yi went to Yushan Waterfall and secretly met with two Yuanshi of the Tie Clan. ”

What?!

Huo Xu finally understood that it was so difficult for him to control his emotions, it turned out to be the will of heaven in the dark!

Thinking that Iron Owl and Iron Eagle had already been ambushed, and they only needed to kill Luo Yi again, so that they could comfort Brother Huo Jue's spirit in the sky, Huo Xu's heart suddenly surged.

Qi Liang seemed to see through Huo Xu's thoughts, and spoke again: "Luo Yi has a lot of background, he was Lord Zhengqing's personal guard thirty years ago, and it is not so easy to move him, let alone ······ Right now, you're not strong enough.

Come with me, turn around to the Royal Martial Arts Mansion and fly freely, and soon you will be able to reach the Lingmen through another passage. ”
