Qingxian City.

Bo House.

The backyard was brightly lit.

"The hour has come, get ready to act!"

Bo Kai's face was cold.

In front of him, there were hundreds of guards, all with long knives hanging from their waists, in a neat line.

"Yes!"

Everyone lowered their voices.

These people were all carefully selected by Bo Kai, and although they were not dead, they were all extremely loyal to the Bo family.

They have been trained by the martial artists of the nursing home for half a month, and they already have a certain combat ability, and tonight they are going to raid the Gu family and kill Gu Yang by surprise.

The backyard door opened, and under the leadership of Bo Kai, everyone quietly left Bo Mansion.

Meanwhile.

Gu Mansion.

Inside the courtyard.

A figure entered the mansion and bowed to Gu Yang:

"Master Gu, Bo Chang has started to act."

This person is of medium stature and has bright eyes, but it is Li Ming, the county government secretary.

"Okay, I'm sorry for you, Li Abshi."

Gu Yang nodded:

"Sure enough, as Master Wu said, Bo Chang is going to do it tonight...... However, this fang must not have expected that Gu had already taken precautions!

Bo Chang has no one in his eyes, and he deceives me too much, so he wants him to be Bo family tonight...... Removed from Qingxian City! ”

With Gu Yang's order, hundreds of guards rushed out.

Gu Yang did not go to Bo Mansion with them.

Half a cup of tea after the time.

A figure appeared.

"The head of the house."

A man dressed in blue and black stepped forward and said in a low voice:

"The brothers of the Blue Immortal Society have arrived."

"Okay."

Gu Yang's eyes lit up, "What about the officers and soldiers guarding the city?" ”

"I've already set off for Bo Mansion."

The visitor replied.

"Good."

Killing intent appeared in Gu Yang's eyes:

"The time, the place, the people are all ...... Let's get started! ”

"Yes!"

The man in black responded.

There are 400 guards in the palace, 200 law enforcement teams of the Qingxian Society, and 200 officers and soldiers guarding the city.

These eight hundred people were different from ordinary martial artists, they were well-trained, and they were the elite forces that Gu Yang could mobilize.

Tonight's action, Gu Yang has a calculation.

It's time for Yin.

The period from midnight until dawn.

The person in charge of guarding the city gate is the people of the Bo family.

Gu Yang had already sent spies to reconnoiter in advance.

The group of officers and soldiers guarding the city tonight have been replaced, and they are not the elite men and horses of the Bo family, they should be pretended to be servants at home.

Based on this, Gu Yang deduced that in this operation, the people of the Bo family had already poured out of the nest.

But Gu Yang didn't panic.

The Gu family's strength was already stronger than the Bo family, and this time they were even better prepared in advance.

With mental calculation or unintentional, as long as the Bo family loses the advantage of "sneak attack", and the two sides put their respective forces on the bright side, Bo Chang will not have any chance of winning.

………………

"Click-"

A big head flies.

Warm blood splattered on Bo Kai's face.

In an alley near the Gu Mansion, they were attacked by the Gu family.

The Gu family made preparations in advance and took the lead in attacking.

A wave of arrows went down, and the Bo family fell in a row.

However, the alleys were criss-crossed in all directions, and the Bo family guards quickly retreated into the other alleys and began to walk in a roundabout way.

The Bo family also held crossbow arrows and hid in the dark to fight back.

When the arrows on both sides are almost consumed, it is a hand-to-hand battle.

People keep dying, and people keep joining—

The elite of the Qingxian Society and the officers and soldiers defending the city controlled by both sides arrived at the battlefield one after another.

If we add the servants and miscellaneous soldiers of each family, the total number of people in this battle has exceeded two thousand.

But that number is rapidly decreasing.

Sweat, blood, screams......

Bladed weapons, sticky blood, broken corpses......

The two sides are already red-eyed.

"Where's the reinforcements?! Why haven't the reinforcements come yet! ”

Bo Kai wiped a handful of blood from his face and cut down one of the Gu family guards.

And he himself was slashed in the shoulder by a long knife.

At this moment, both sides of the battle are close to exhaustion.

At this moment, shouts of killing sounded not far away.

Reinforcements arrived, and the first man rode on a tall horse.

Behind him, followed by nearly a thousand soldiers, they launched a charge towards this place.

Bo Kai refreshed:

"Kill!"

Reinforcements have arrived!

The morale of the Bo family was suddenly booming.

The man on horseback is here in an instant.

But what Bo Kai didn't expect was that the other party waved the long knife in his hand and slashed it hard.

He who fell to the ground was thinly opened his head.

"None of them will be left!"

The comer's tone was cold.

His goal is the Bo family and the Gu family.

………………

Qingxian City.

Ho Fu.

He Youde lay on a rattan chair, enjoying the services of the three concubines.

One pinched his shoulders, one rubbed his legs, and the other fed dried fruit to his mouth.

"You seem to be very happy today, master?"

A concubine said coquettishly.

"Hehe, the lord is happy every day, but the lord is especially happy today."

He Youde listened to the faint shouting and killing sound in the distance, and only felt extremely pleasant.

He smiled and said:

"Our county magistrate is really a wonderful person."

"What do you mean, sir?"

A concubine asked.

"Well, you don't understand it."

He Youde waved his hand:

"But you all serve the master comfortably today, and the master is happy, and tomorrow you will go to the account office to receive the reward."

When the three concubines heard this, their faces suddenly bloomed with joy.

He Youde is so generous tonight, of course, for a reason.

On that night three days ago, two carriages came to Hefu.

The two carriages departed from the county office.

A total of 100,000 taels of silver were carried on the car.

The person driving the car was Lu Zhubo of the county government.

He brought a secret letter with him.

The letter was written by the magistrate, and the content inside was very simple.

Lu Xuan invited He Youde to join forces with him to deal with the other two families.

The letter was a big gamble.

If He Youde chooses to take this letter and report Lu Xuan to the other two family heads, then Lu Xuan's previous arrangements and efforts will be invalidated, and he will lose everything.

But Lu Xuan believes that he will not lose the bet.

After all, taking advantage of the defeat of the Gu family and the Bo family, they reaped the benefits of the fisherman and became the only master of Qingxian City......

For He Youde, this temptation is too deadly.

He Youde thought about it for a long time, and finally agreed to Lu Xuan's request for an alliance.

However, the county magistrate once calculated Gu Yang, and then calculated thinly.

Now that the two are cooperating, He Youde doesn't trust him.

Even if he had scouted many times before, he suspected that the other party had raised an army outside the city.

So He Youde defended himself.

Just tonight, he sent his cronies out to the gate of Qingxian City.

He Youde is ready to kill all the defenders of the Bo family, and replace them all with the people of the He family.

As long as the city gate is controlled, even if the county magistrate really has troops outside, he can't help himself.

………………

Qingxian City, the city gate.

A group of men and horses were neatly dressed and came to the rear of the tower.

"Who?!"

The prefect of the city shouted.

"Brother of the Bo family."

On the He family's side, the first person is humane:

"Our master has joined forces with Master Bo to jointly exterminate the Gu family's anti-thieves, the war is urgent, and we need to go to support as soon as possible."

"It turned out to be from the He family."

The prefect of the city guard nodded and said:

"Someone!"

Immediately many soldiers poured into the city gatehouse.

The prefect of the city guard waved his hand:

"Shoot the arrows!"

A rain of arrows fell from above, and the He family was caught off guard, and many people were shot into hedgehogs on the spot.

This group of people is from the Black Lotus Sect.

In the past few days, they scattered and lurked in the city, and tonight they grabbed the city gate first and changed into the armor of the Bo family.

Qian Chong, disguised as a city defense officer, drew his knife:

"Kill!"

………………

An hour later.

Qingxian City, the central square.

Dawn has not yet come, and the entire Qingxian City is still immersed in the night, but the square is brightly lit.

The guards from the He family surrounded the place, they held torches in their hands, and in the center of the square, there were two kneeling figures.

A sedan chair appeared here.

He Youde got down from the sedan chair, looked at the two old people in front of him, and said with a smile:

"Two heads of the family, don't come to harm?"

"Shameless!"

Bo Chang took a hard sip.

When He Youde's men broke into the mansion, killed the guards who remained in the mansion, and tied him here.

Bo Chang and Gu Yang already knew what was going on.

Both of them thought they were calculating each other, but they were actually sold by the county magistrate

"This shamelessness can't be used to scold me, anyone."

He Youde, who has always been short-tempered, is happy at this time:

"The real shameless person should be our Wu Da talent."

"He Youde."

Gu Yang raised his head:

"The old treacherous man surnamed Wu is cunning, and if you cooperate with him, you are seeking skin with the tiger! The two of us today is your virtuous tomorrow! ”

"You think the head of the family will be as stupid as you two?"

He Youde sneered:

"The only entrance and exit of Qingxian City has been controlled by me, as long as this city gate is there, outsiders can't enter.

The surname Wu has no soldiers and no people, what can I do to compete with me? If he knew each other, it would be good to listen to me obediently.

If you don't know what to do, it's not a big deal to change the county magistrate...... We have done this kind of thing more than once back then. ”

"You're too trusted."

Gu Yang sneered a few times.

At this time, behind He Youde, there was a sudden movement.

He Youde frowned and turned away.

In the distance, a group of centaurs was galloping towards them.

The team numbered more than one and a half thousand people and was well equipped.

The leader was a middle-aged man, dressed in an official robe, riding a horse, and his bearing was very calm.

Beside him, there were white-faced literati, fat men, capable men, and a middle-aged man in strange costumes.

"You, why did you come?!"

He Youde's face changed suddenly.

What shocked him was not why Zhixian appeared here, but why there was such a sophisticated army behind the other party.

"Why can't I come?"

Lu Xuan stopped three zhang away.

"You, you...... You actually colluded with the Black Lotus Sect! ”

He Youde lost his voice.

He noticed the middle-aged man in a fancy dress.

The clothes on the other party's body have obvious Black Lotus Sect characteristics.

"Hey, what Black Lotus Sect, don't you want to spew blood."

Qian Chong, who was wearing the clothes of the Black Lotus Messenger, expressed his dissatisfaction:

"We have abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and now we are following Lord Wu to suppress your group of demons."

An hour ago, an army of 1,000 people arrived in Qingxian City.

Qian Chong opened the door with joy, and then took the army to find Lu Xuan.

After meeting, he was taken down by the magistrate.

Lu Xuan said that the official has now changed his mind.

Since you have food and soldiers in your hands, and you have a city in your hand, why don't you go it alone?

If we have this condition, what else do we follow the Black Lotus Sect for?

Qian Chong was numb at that time.

Lu Xuan didn't put the knife on his neck this time, but spread out the map and analyzed it for Qian Chong-

The main activity area of the Black Lotus Sect is located in the Central Plains, and the main force is fighting against Dakang.

Whether it is the imperial court or the Black Lotus Sect, they have no time to take care of a small Qingxian City.

Qingxian City is located in the southwest basin of Dakang, with a remote location, but the water and fertilizer conditions are excellent.

The key point is that the southwest basin is surrounded by mountains, and it is obviously an easy place to defend and difficult to attack.

With Qingxian City as a base, recruit troops, develop forces, and expand outward.

Occupy the entire southwest, and it can become a three-legged momentum, competing with the Black Lotus Sect and the Dakang Imperial Court.

Isn't it better than being a minion for someone else?

Qian Chong thought about it for a long time, felt as if this was the truth, and finally gritted his teeth and led the team to surrender.

"It's better to hand over Qingxian City to me than to be in your hands."

In the faint morning light, Lu Xuan raised the war knife in his hand:

"It's time to finish."

The sword fell, and the shouts of killing rang out.

In front of the regimental militia, which was in full state and full of morale, the people of the three major families fell like wheat.

Until the last man's head is cut off.

It's dawn.

The official robe on Lu Xuan's body became wrinkled and old, and gradually shattered.

The surroundings faded in color, as if they had been in a photo album for a long time, and the pages were yellowed and rolled up.

The new morning sun fades away, and the dividing line between night and day gradually disappears and merges into one.

The world is like a picture scroll wet with water, the ink is scattered and blurred.

In the world that was gradually collapsing, Lu Xuan stretched out his hand and held Cheng Lingzhu together.

The two of them had returned to their original appearance at this time.

The magistrate's official uniform turned into a pale pink mist again.

The world collapsed, and a magnificent palace emerged from the void.

The mist turned into a giant monument and stood in front of the gate of the Asgard.

Lu Xuan and Cheng Lingzhu glanced at each other and approached the giant monument.

“…… Demon Emperor Palace. ”

Lu Xuan recognized the handwriting on the giant monument:

"This is the inheritance dojo of the Ancient Demon Emperor [Death]......"

Through this stone stele, he learned the truth about Qingxian City.

Qingxian City is not a fictional existence, but a fragment of history intercepted from time by the ancient demon emperor [殁] with supreme magical powers.

This fragment of history was sealed here, and when Lu Xuan and Cheng Lingzhu entered it, everything began to work.

A divine rainbow descended, rolled up the two of them, and brought them into the fairy palace.

When Cheng Lingzhu saw the surrounding environment clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Here it is...... The Demon Emperor's dormitory.

The decoration of the dormitory is extraordinary, and the floor tiles and beams are paved with fairy gold gods.

Beneath his feet was a carpet woven with the hair of strange beasts, and near the wall was a half-human-high purple gold incense burner.

In the deepest part of the dormitory is an incense tent, with layers of draped curtains, delicate and luxurious.

The entire dormitory is shrouded in the laws of the Immortal Dao, and is not eroded by the power of time.

On one side of the wall, a painting hangs.

The painter does not seem to be deeply involved in the way of Danqing, and his brushwork is a little immature.

The "figure" in the painting is a white fox.

"It's ......"

Cheng Lingzhu thought of the little fox who broke into the county government in Qingxian City.

"Ancient Demon Emperor, die."

Lu Xuan said.
