Volume 3 The Terrans of the Metaverse Chapter 45: Breaking the City Gate
If you want to reach the Huoyan City in the west of the Xia Kingdom, it is not feasible to go directly to the west after leaving the Broken Spirit City, there should be a huge canyon between the northeast and northwest of the Xia Kingdom, Yun Fei can control the flying sword to send Yuan Pi and others through the canyon one by one, but once this canyon is in the Xia Kingdom, once the flying sword is used, it will definitely be exposed due to the exposure of the aura of the immortal cultivator and attract a large number of pursuers, and secondly, there is a thick layer of evil wind between the canyon, even if Yun Fei can hide the breath of the immortal cultivator when using the flying sword, he will not be able to take people through this evil windγ
And to the south of the canyon, the evil wind has been blowing until the barren forest does not stop, for Yuan Pi and the others, crossing the barbaric forest is an act of seeking death, although Bai Zhan is a little arrogant because he has just broken through the blood-first realm, but Nie Chen and Yuan Pi still stopped him from the idea of passing directly through the barren forest in time, after all, even the Nine Demon Venerable is a little jealous of the barren forest.
Although Bai Zhan couldn't wait to fly to Huoyan City immediately to meet Yuan Pi's ancestor, the Blazing Fire God Ape, under the unique terrain of Xia Kingdom, he had to sigh and follow his companions to make a detour, while still urging Yuan Pi and the others to speed up.
In this way, because of Bai Zhan's urging, and Lingyun's matter is also dealt with as soon as possible, Yuan Pi and the others galloped all the way to the north of the city, originally when they arrived in the northernmost part of the barren forest, it was the fastest to turn directly to Huoyan City from here, but Yuan Pi pondered, since he was here, he was not weak to go to the nearest Songlin City to have a look, and it happened that the fifth uncle Yuan Ce asked if the Blazing Fire God Ape was in the Flame City, in case the Blazing Fire God Ape happened to be in Songlin City, then everyone did not need to go to the Fire Flame City in vain.
Yuan Pi's proposal was approved by all his companions, including Bai Zhan, so everyone stopped their steps and went directly to Huoyan City, turned around and galloped towards the city.
Yuan Pi and the others galloped all the way, and soon saw the north gate of Songlin City from a distance, only to see that there were people everywhere at the gate, and even many merchants directly set up tents here, Ling Yun asked strangely: "Wow, is something going on, why are so many people gathered here." β
"Well, that's not supposed to be the case here, you see, the gates are closed. Nie Chen sighed lightly, and then pointed to the closed city gate and said to his companions, Yuan Pi and the others looked in the direction Nie Chen pointed, and just saw that there were a few guards under the city gate who were driving a group of people dressed as slaves, and the others who were close to it, some showed sympathetic eyes, and some did gloat and laughed.
The few slaves who were driven away cursed a few words angrily, and then ran to their masters in a whisper before the guards took out their weapons, Nie Chen looked left and right and said in a low voice: "Something is wrong, even if the north city gate is closed, these merchants can enter the city through other city gates, but looking at their appearance, they have been here for more than a day, is Songlin City closed?"
It stands to reason that it is impossible for Songlin City to be closed, hearing Nie Chen's question, Yuan Pi and the others except Bai Zhan were a little confused, at this time, a young man dressed as a small guy happened to walk past everyone, Ling Yun hurriedly grabbed him, and opened his mouth to ask: "This big brother, what happened here, why is this city gate closed, and what are so many people doing here?"
The little guy didn't know what to do in a hurry, he was hurrying forward with an anxious face, he was suddenly grabbed by someone, he naturally didn't have a good temper, he pulled his hand hard but didn't break free from Ling Yun's hand, he looked back at Ling Yun angrily, and then he saw that it was actually a child who grabbed him.
As soon as the little guy wanted to open his mouth and scold Ling Yun, Yuan Pi approached, and Yuan Pi's tall and strong body and shiny bald head immediately frightened the little guy, and the words that just came to his mouth were swallowed back into his stomach.
"Little brother, what do you want to ask?" The little guy looked at Yuan Pi and secretly thought about the consequences of his bad performance, and then showed a look that was more ugly than crying, and said to Ling Yun helplessly.
Ling Yun was embarrassed to let go of his hand, and asked Fang Cai's question again, and the little guy suddenly became anxious: "I almost forgot, the four gates of Songlin City have been blocked, and I don't know how long it will take to open, and I am about to report back to the owner." β
"Do you know why the city gate is blocked?" Yuan Pi asked strangely, "Is there anything else going on in the city?"
"This master, how would I know this......" The little guy shook his head, and his face showed anxiety again: "Mine hurry up and report to the owner, you can ask the others, but just now at the city gate, I heard someone say that it seems to be related to the Yuan Deputy City Lord's Mansion at this time, and it seems that it is also blocked there." β
"What! has something to do with Deputy City Lord Yuan's Mansion?" Yuan Pi was so shocked that he didn't care about the little guy who ran away, and hurriedly pulled Ling Yun and the rest of his companions and rushed straight towards the city gate.
"What kind of person, bold!" The guards at the north city gate roared angrily at Yuan Pi and the others, because at the same time as rushing up again, the most anxious Yuan Pi had already rapidly used the power of the blood in his body, and the surging and violent momentum directly shocked the merchants outside the city gate.
Seeing Yuan Pi suddenly erupt, Bai Zhan and the others, who didn't have time to figure out what was going on, were stunned for a while, but Nie Chen, who had the best relationship with Yuan Pi, was the first to react, and the power of luck and blood rushed over with Yuan Pi.
A blazing fire god ape with incomparably clear hair, condensed violently, and everyone present was shocked.
"It's not good, it's the Yuan family, stop him!" A guard who looked like a captain standing at the head of the city suddenly roared, and the guards guarding the city gate rushed up frantically, and something more terrifying happened immediately, and then those guards who rushed up, there were also countless guards on the city wall above the city gate, and a longbow was opened, and sharp arrows were pointed at Yuan Pi and others, at this moment, in the former deputy city lord's mansion, Yuan Mengzheng roared and led people to rush out of the hall.
Outside the city gate, Yuan Pi's eyes widened, and his hands lit up violently, he put his hands together, and threw a fireball the size of a human head towards the guards who rushed forward, and at the same time, Nie Chen's black panther law phase condensed and formed, and Nie Chen, who had changed into a battle form, followed the fireball and swooped forward.
With a bang, the fireball exploded violently, and the nearest few guards flew out on fire and died on the spot, and a few guards were not blown up, and they were falling to the ground at the moment and wailing, and Nie Chen's arrival just solved their pain, his hands waved gently, and his long nails swept through the throats of these guards, and these guards completely closed their eyes.
"Murder!!" The merchants who were rushed away by Yuan Pi and Nie Chen were in a big mess, and they all ran around with their families like headless flies, in order to escape for their lives, they didn't even have time to bring tents and cargo boxes, and after a while, only the guards and Yuan Pi and others remained here.
Bai Zhan looked at Yun Fei and rushed forward with the power of his blood, and rushed to Yuan Pi first, and quickly moved towards the city gate with Nie Chen.
Yun Fei shook his head and took a step back, no matter what, as long as he was still in the territory of the Xia Kingdom, Yun Fei would never dare to use the spells of immortal cultivators.
"Let's go!" The captain of the guards put down his raised arm violently, and the guards at the head of the city released their bowstrings at the same time, and countless sharp arrows shot out at Yuan Pi, Nie Chen, and Bai Zhan, who rushed to the front.
Ling Yun's eyes flashed with blue light, and his palms slapped heavily against the ground, and the sparse blades of grass in front of the city gate suddenly soared, and countless blades of grass stretched out into the air and swayed, and one by one sharp arrows were hit by these swaying blades of grass, and immediately fell crookedly to both sides.
The real masters among the guards have already been sent by the city lord of Zhu to attack the palace of the deputy city lord of Yuan, including the captain on the city wall, these guards are not blood cultivators, how have they ever seen the terrifying ability of these blood cultivators, the captain of the guards was covered with cold sweat, and even the voice of the commander trembled a little: "Archer...... All ready to ......"
Just when those archers raised their bows and arrows again, a sense of arbitrary fear suddenly appeared in the hearts of all the guards, that feeling, as if they were being targeted by ancient fierce beasts, and a few unlucky people who were not firm enough in their hearts were even weaker, and they were planted directly from the city wall, and above them, a vague black giant dog Faxiang was staring at them with wide eyes, and Bai Zhan's bloodline ability "Fear" was used on the battlefield for the first time, and the results were gratifying.
Nie Chen leaned down slightly like a swift cheetah, he and the black panther figure flickered and quickly harvested the lives of the guards, and when Bai Zhan caught up, there was no one at the city gate who could still stand, so Bai Zhan stared at the archers on the city wall.
With the shock of the bloodline ability "fear", the archers on the city wall did not organize a decent resistance at all, and they were all killed by Bai Zhan, who jumped on the city wall closely, with the Nine Demon Dog Law like chopping melons and vegetables, for these guards of the Xia Kingdom, Bai Zhan, as a native of the Yuan Kingdom, will not have the slightest mercy.
The captain of the guards was already on the verge of collapse at the moment when Bai Zhan rushed up, he watched blankly as Bai Zhan slaughtered his subordinates, his feet were easy to fall to the ground, and his crotch was damp, Bai Zhan looked at the frightened captain, shook his head disdainfully, inserted the sword into his waist, and gestured to Nie Chen under the city tower.
Yuan Pi's speed was really not as good as Bai Zhan and Nie Chen, and by the time he arrived, the battle had already ended, and Yuan Pi, who was so anxious that he really didn't have a good time, roared angrily, and hit the city gate made of pig iron like a wild bull.
"Hahaha, even if you kill us, you won't be able to break through the city gate!" The captain of the guards looked at Yuan Pi's movements under the city tower in a daze, and suddenly let out a hysterical laugh.
"Bang!" There was a muffled sound, the city gate did not move, and the annoyed Yuan Pi took a few steps back, and slammed into the city gate again with his fiery fire god ape law.
"Bang!" The second dull voice sounded, the city gate shook for a while, Yuan Pi and the fiery fire god ape Fa Xiang shook their heads and retreated, staring at the city gate for a long time, Yuan Pi suddenly raised his hand and hooked his finger at Ling Yun who was standing on the side.
Ling Yun first pointed at himself blankly, and after seeing Yuan Pi nodding, the playful Ling Yun jumped up and ran in front of Yuan Pi, and then with a strong foot, he rushed towards the city gate with Yuan Pi and the fiery fire god ape.
This time, even the city walls trembled, and with a loud bang, the two concave gates fell inward, but fortunately, there was no more than half a figure on the side of the city gate at this moment, so there was no unlucky ghost who was crushed by the fallen city gate.
"It's impossible to break through the city gate?" Bai Zhan looked at the captain of the guards who had completely collapsed, sneered, and swung his sword to end his nightmare.
