Chapter 1269: Sad Past

As he was talking, he saw that the knight who rushed to the front let out a long roar, and the giant beast under his crotch hissed angrily, and his speed was more than doubled again in an instant!

Rumble!

Like a sharp arrow!

Oncoming!

The person beside Xu Luo hurriedly pulled Xu Luo back a few steps.

Xu Luo didn't want to move, but he didn't want to brush off the kindness of the person next to him, so he took a few steps back.

At this moment, this group of cavalry had already approached and roared past.

Sou!

Sou!

Sou......!

The hooves of the giant beasts shook the earth, and there was a loud roar.

Rubbing Xu Luo's body, galloping past!

The strong wind that brought it up rolled up Xu Luo's hair, making Xu Luo's face feel a faint pain.

Xu Luo's eyes ...... Squinting slightly, he asked, "Who are they?"

The person who reminded Xu Luo was an old man, who looked to be over the age of old, and sighed lightly when he heard this: "Young man, you are not a resident of Tiangu City, are you?"

Xu Luo shook his head: "It's the first time I've come here." ”

"Well, why did you come to this place of sin? Don't you know that this is the place of exile?" said the old man, his eyes full of sorrow.

Xu Luo asked, "The land of sin, the land of exile, why?"

The old man smiled bitterly and shook his head, it seemed that he didn't want to say anything more.

Xu Luo felt that the old man seemed to be taboo, frowned, and didn't ask more.

At this time, the large amount of smoke and dust brought up by the cavalry just now had just begun to diffuse.

Xu Luo's body instantly emitted a faint defensive layer, blocking a large amount of dust outside. glanced at the old man beside him, and released another defense to block the dust for the old man.

The old man glanced at Xu Luo with some gratitude, hesitated for a moment, and reminded in a low voice: "Young man, it can be seen that you are a cultivator, but in Tiangu City, it is best not to show your identity as a monk lightly, otherwise, you will be in trouble!"

After speaking, the old man ignored the dust outside and left in a hurry.

Looking at the others, one by one, they were all in a hurry, and they walked towards the city with their heads covered in spite of the large amount of dust.

When passing by Xu Luo, he would look at Xu Luo strangely, and his eyes seemed to be full of surprise.

At this moment, the old man who had just left hurried back again, and without speaking, he picked up Xu Luo and left.

Xu Luo felt inexplicable, and just wanted to say something, the old man said in a low voice: "Don't ask anything!"

In this way, Xu Luo was pulled by the old man, and walked towards the city with the flow of people. Soon, he was taken by the old man to an old-looking, dilapidated house in the city.

Xu Luo couldn't believe that behind such a magnificent city wall, there would be such a poor and low-rise house, and the people here, who seemed to be the strongest, were not in the realm of the Immortal Emperor. The vast majority of them are not even monks, they can only be called warriors.

More ...... It's an ordinary person who barely has any cultivation!

Everyman!

Xu Luo was really shocked.

In such a world, there are ordinary people...... In fact, it is already a difficult thing to understand.

Because this is the Emperor Star!

It is the most powerful star in this vast and endless starry sky!

The cultivation family on this star can be traced back to the pre-Infinite Era......

Of course, the cultivation background of this star is also so powerful that it is almost a living being...... To the point where you can cultivate!

When Xu Luo flew to this star, he felt that there were many terrifying creatures in the deep mountains and old forests, although they were dormant and sleeping, but the kind of aura exuded from them made him feel like he wanted to suffocate.

At that time, I still sighed in my heart: The emperor star is the emperor star, and it really has a profound heritage.

However, when he arrived at this ancient city, he realized that what he saw was the same as his previous judgment...... It's completely different!

"How is this possible?" Xu Luo looked at the rows of dilapidated houses, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and followed the old man into his home.

Pushing open the courtyard door, I saw a shelf of grapes, growing very luxuriantly, bunches of green grapes hanging on it, not yet ripe season, but it looked very gratifying.

Next to the grape trellis, there is a well, the mouth of the well is not large, there is a cold breath, along the bottom of the well.

There are some beautiful flowers and plants planted around, and some flowers are blooming brilliantly and have a pleasant fragrance.

The yard is also very clean, although shabby, but it gives a warm feeling.

"The house is a little broken, don't dislike it. The old man dragged Xu Luo into the courtyard, only then did he seem to breathe a sigh of relief, and said to Xu Luo a little apologetically: "I didn't dare to tell you just now, because a big man was coming over soon, I thought you would enter the city immediately, but I didn't expect you to dare to stay there, hey, I didn't believe it at first, but now I believe it, you really don't know this city!"

"Can you tell me more about it?" Xu Luo sat on a stone bench under the grape trellis, looked at the old man and said.

The old man sighed and said: "That group of cavalry is the escort of the Heavenly Ancient City, and the only people who can use them are the city lord's family, and the city lord's family travels, and everyone must avoid it!"

"The cavalry, as long as you stay away, in general, there won't be much of a problem. But the family of the lord of the city ......"

The old man said, glanced around cautiously, lowered his voice and said, "They are all moody, if you see someone who does not avoid them when they travel, you will break your bones and tendons...... The most important thing is ...... Dead!"

"Over the years, there have been too many people who have died in vain here, especially people like you, who look like a monk at first glance, and if they see it, they may suffer bad luck!"

Xu Luo was dumbfounded when he heard this, and looked at the old man: "The city lord of this city...... That's what you do to the inhabitants of this city?"

The old man sighed: "Then what's the solution, who let us be guilty...... Is it a place of exile......"

"Then this shouldn't happen!" Xu Luo said.

The old man shook his head and said: "More things, we little people, I don't understand, I only heard that a long time ago, here, once the entire Emperor Star, the most prosperous...... And the most powerful city!"

"At that time, everyone was proud to live in Tiangu City, and some powerful monks tried their best to become residents of Tiangu City. ”

"Elsewhere in the Emperor Star, as long as you tell others that you are from Tiangu City, those people have to take a look at them!"

"It's a pity that later, the first city lord of Tiangu City, Lord Tiangu, for some reason, disappeared...... After this city was taken over by others, all the qiē have undergone earth-shaking changes!"

"The people who originally lived in Tiangu City were as strong as a cloud, and they were all loyal to Lord Tiangu. It is precisely for this reason that those people have all been ......."

The old man sighed: "These things, in today's Tiangu City, no one dares to mention them, and I am a lonely old immortal, who has long looked down on life and death, and I don't care so much, and I dare to nag you again." ”

"All of them were ...... What does it mean, are they all dead?" Xu Luo's heart swelled with a faint sadness, this feeling was very uncomfortable.

The old man nodded and said, "What do you say? The city lord is gone, and the one who has come to take over this city is the city lord's opponent...... What will happen to those who are loyal to the original city lord?"

Xu Luo nodded and said softly, "That's right." ”

The old man said softly: "Speaking of which, my ancestor was a member of the battle generals under the command of Lord Tiangu back then, and he died in battle when alien creatures invaded......

"It is also thanks to the fact that my ancestor died in battle at that time, my family, in Tiangu City, can be regarded as having avoided a catastrophe, and is not as unlucky as the other people who survived. ”

"But there is one thing, any subordinates who have been with Lord Tiangu, their descendants, are not allowed to cultivate!"

"Therefore, in the entire Emperor Star, there is only the Heavenly Ancient City...... There are so many ordinary people, and the vast majority of them only have a short lifespan of less than 100 years......"

"Some people who have the ability have already found a way to escape from here, leaving us to survive here. ”

"It is precisely for this reason that this place has become a place of sin and a place of exile......

Xu Luo's eyebrows raised, and a surge of anger surged in his heart, and he said, "Why are those people so excessive? What did Tiangu do wrong back then? Is he guilty? Why do you treat the people in this city like this? How innocent are they?"

The old man glanced at Xu Luo with some surprise, and then said: "Young man, you have a great sense of justice, but this kind of thing, in front of my old immortal, just talk about it, don't say it when you go out, otherwise you will be unlucky!"

"The entire Emperor Star, people with a little insight know that the residents of Tiangu City are innocent and implicated, but the problem is ...... Who dares to uphold this justice for us?" the old man sighed.

"I dare!" Xu Luo stood up directly, with a flash of anger between his eyebrows, and said, "I'm in charge of this matter!"

The old man hurriedly stood up, walked over, pulled Xu Luo down, and asked him to sit down, and then said with a wry smile: "I thought you young man was just a little stubborn, but I didn't expect that you were a little stupid......"

"......" The corners of Xu Luo's mouth twitched, and he was speechless.

The old man looked at Xu Luo and said, "When I saw you, I remembered my son...... Back then, like you, he secretly ran to cultivate, and when he didn't even have a small achievement, he ran back and organized a large group of people, what to say...... I want to seek justice for Tiangu City!"

"What happened later?" Xu Luo looked at the old man, and already thought of that unfortunate answer in his heart.

"Later......" the old man stood up, picked up a broom, and gently swept the stone path without much dust, "Later...... I'm left alone!"

"We are a family of six, my son and daughter-in-law, a grandson, a granddaughter, and my wife...... I'm the only one left. ”

"They...... It's all gone?" Xu Luo frowned, looked at the old man and asked.

The old man put the broom aside, licked his dry lips, hesitated for a moment, and then said with a bitter face: "My son, who was beheaded on the spot, daughter-in-law...... ...... by many people After the insult...... Killed himself, my grandson...... Killed, granddaughter...... When my wife and son died, she watched and was frightened, and died on the spot......"

When the old man said these words, his face looked very calm, but Xu Luo could see that there was a trace of hatred hidden in the depths of the old man's eyes.

Xu Luo's heart was also like being pierced by countless awls.

It hurts.
