Chapter 498: Assassinating the County Lord
"You're here for that weird cave too?" the villager asked.
"Strange cave?" Mu Tianyi wondered.
The villager was stunned at first, obviously not expecting that Mu Tianyi was not coming to the cave.
Immediately, he explained: "Since a few days ago, there has been an avalanche on the mountain near here, perhaps because of the landslide, a cave has been exposed, and there is still light, and many mystics have come here, but they have never come out since they entered." ”
"Well, do you know which direction? Let's take a look. Mu Tianyi wondered in his heart whether it would be the place where the blood lingzhi grows.
There must be powerful demon beasts entrenched around such spiritual creatures, and it is not surprising that those people will go and never return.
"From here, you can see it all the way north. The villager pointed in one direction.
"Thank you. Mu Tianyi did not ask them about the whereabouts of Xue Lingzhi.
Like that kind of spiritual creature, no matter who sees it, he won't let it go, so how can he tell it.
Mu Tianyi and Bai Yifeng went all the way to the north and galloped away.
"I just sensed that there were spirits in that village. Bai Yifeng said.
"They have lived in the snowy mountains for a long time, and it is not surprising that they can find some spiritual flowers and spiritual grasses. Mu Tianyi didn't think there was anything special about it.
Many lowly cultivators also rely on finding spiritual objects and selling them for money to make a living.
"Maybe, but that thing has a strong aura, and it's definitely not an ordinary spiritual thing. ”
However, after walking north for a long time, the sun had already set, but there was still no cave in sight, and nothing that shone brightly.
Mu Tianyi and Bai Yifeng stopped, because there was no road except for the towering snow-capped mountains in front of them.
"Have we been deceived?" Bai Yifeng said a little depressed.
"Looks like ...... Right. ”
Mu Tianyi didn't expect that he had just saved those villagers, and they would actually take revenge and trick them into this shabby place where birds don't, where even demon beasts are rare.
For a while, Mu Tianyi and Bai Yifeng returned to the original road, stopping and stopping, and when they arrived at the village, it was already the next morning.
Mu Tian rushed into the village angrily, trying to ask the villagers for clarification, but found that the village was empty.
It wasn't like a disaster, everything inside had been taken away, and it looked like they were ready to leave.
"Run! These guys must know that we will come back to settle accounts with them!" Bai Yifeng said angrily.
"At least we've proven that the way to the north doesn't work. Mu Tianyi sighed helplessly.
There were only two roads left except the way they came, and if they saw the footprints on the snow, if the villagers wanted to escape from the strange cave, they would inevitably go in the opposite direction.
Looking at the footprints, Mu Tianyi hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's go east." ”
This time the two picked up the pace.
Buzzing!
Boom!
There was a fierce fight in the distance, and listening to the sound, there were quite a few people.
Mu Tianyi and Bai Yifeng glanced at each other, and the pace under their feet accelerated again.
The figure in the distance gradually became clear, it was Luo Ning'er!
"Isn't that Luo Ning'er?" Bai Yifeng said in surprise.
"Looks like she's in trouble. ”
Mu Tianyi didn't see Kong Yufei and Wei Xuyang, it seems that it was Luo Ning'er who was going to enter the Polar Ice Continent before.
At this moment, Luo Ning'er and the two maids were being besieged by a group of people.
And the mysteries besieging them seem to be wearing armor?
Those Xuanzhi who wore armor were not low in cultivation, and they were all above the Emperor Spirit Realm.
On the contrary, it was Luo Ning'er's two maids, who were only true spirit realm cultivators.
At this time, although he was seriously injured, he was still swearing to protect Luo Ning'er.
"Lord, run away! A maid said in a weak voice.
It's a pity that the two maids who cultivated in the True Spirit Realm were not the opponents of those Emperor Spirit Realm mysteries at all.
Two blood flashes, blood splattered, and the two maids were killed in an instant, and their deaths were miserable.
"Red cherry blossoms!green willows!" Luo Ning'er exclaimed.
"Where do you want to escape, where do you want to escape, today is your death!" the leader sneered.
"You're rebellious!
Luo Ning'er had nowhere to hide, her face was resolute, and the spiritual power of her whole body surged out, not retreating, but advancing, rushing towards the rebels.
More than a dozen rebels didn't give Luo Ning'er any chance at all, and in groups of four, they attacked in turns, and Luo Ning'er was powerless to fight.
The sound of killing shook the sky, like a thunderclap, and the snow-capped mountain, which was already very active, was like a roaring giant beast at this moment, making a loud rumbling sound.
Avalanches erupted one after another, and snowballs rolled down the mountain like a raging tsunami.
Luo Ning'er flew up, stood in the air, dodged the powerful impact of the avalanche, and before she could get a chance to breathe, she ushered in the pursuit and siege of the rebels.
The sword light and sword shadow, wave after wave.
Luo Ning'er's heart tightened, and she said secretly, it's not good.
The repeated attacks made her spiritual power consume extremely quickly, and there were more scars on her body, and the blood kept flowing out, and as soon as she penetrated her clothes, she froze into blood ice.
She felt that her life was losing little by little, but there was nothing she could do, her vision gradually blurred, her body could no longer support it, and her eyes went black, and she lost consciousness.
"Is it just dead?"
Luo Ning'er thought in her heart, she was unwilling, she was considered the most talented mystic in the family, and she didn't want to die yet.
Rumble!
At this moment, a cyan figure, at an incredibly fast speed, flew by, and the sword light flickered, like a vast sea of stars, shattering all the attacks.
The rebels were shocked and retreated several feet.
"Who are you? I advise you not to meddle in your business!" said the leader of the rebel army coldly.
"It's a threat again, can you change the tricks, such as a direct attack?"
As soon as the words fell, Mu Tianyi's figure had disappeared in place.
With a swing of the sword, the two rebels were blasted out, blood bursting from their chests, and the flesh turned outward, looking shocking.
The others only reacted at this time, Mu Tianyi's speed was too fast, they didn't even have time to support, and they could only watch the two mystics fall to the ground.
The icicles of blood condensed hung on their bodies, and the two of them had been completely destroyed, and it was already very difficult to even get up.
The sword qi continued to sweep behind the two of them, and another mystic didn't have time to dodge, and was swept away by this powerful sword qi, and blood splashed everywhere.
Even Yu Wei had such power, the face of the rebel leader changed dramatically in an instant, and the rest of the mysteries retreated wildly.
Who is the person who came? Could it be the bodyguard that Luo Junting, the king of the north, secretly found?
"This is our personal enmity with her, and it has nothing to do with Your Excellency!" said the leader of the rebel army.
"I wanted to make a move, so I did, what? Do you have an opinion?" Mu Tianyi said with a faint smile.
With so many people besieging a woman, such a shameless thing came from the military, which is really unbearable.
At this moment, Luo Ning'er woke up slowly, surprised that she was still alive, but when she looked at the young man in front of her, she understood that it was Mu Tianyi who saved her.
"Mu Tianyi?" Luo Ning'er's weak voice sounded.
It wasn't loud, but it was like a blow to the rebels' ears.
Although they were not soldiers of the ancient battlefield, they also knew about the major events that took place in the ancient battlefield.
Especially Mu Tianyi in the ancient battlefield, broke into the statue group and came out unscathed, killed the people of the Lu family, and left quietly, which has already spread throughout the army.
"Brothers, withdraw!"
The rebel leader did not hesitate, the young man in front of him was by no means something they could contend with.
Almost at the moment when the order was issued, except for the three mysteries who were already unable to move, the rest of the mysteries instantly exerted their spiritual power to the limit and fled frantically into the distance.
"Don't let them go!" Luo Ning'er shouted.
However, Mu Tianyi did not make a move, those people have no grievances with him, and he will not kill those people for Luo Ning'er.
"Ah......! Why, I'm going to kill them!" Luo Ning'er shouted frantically, tears falling like a fountain.
Watching the maid who was like her siblings die, Luo Ning'er's eyes were full of hatred for those rebels.
"I'll take revenge! you wait!" Luo Ning'er said to herself as her eyes became extremely cold.
Seeing that those mysteries had fled away, Mu Tianyi slowly walked towards Luo Ning'er.
"Thank you for saving me. ”
Although Luo Ning'er was still very weak at the moment, her eyes had changed from hatred to gratitude, and her face changed so quickly that Mu Tianyi felt a chill down her spine.
Even at this time, Luo Ning'er still maintained the elegance and arrogance of the county lord.
She walked up to the mutilated mystic, three of them, two of whom were dead.
Only the mystic who was swept away by Yu Wei still had a breath.
"Who sent you?" Luo Ning'er asked.
"King Xi, Luo Junting. Blood spurted from the mystic's mouth, and his voice was faint but clear.
"No way, who sent you, why did you kill me?" Luo Ning'er pressed the tip of her sword against the throat of the mysterious man, and asked forcefully.
However, the mystic man smiled coldly, his body slammed away, Luo Ning'er didn't have time to react, the mystic man had already penetrated his throat by the sword, and he couldn't die anymore.
This scene deeply shocked Luo Ning'er, she didn't expect that this person would rather commit suicide than reveal any information to her.
Although it is shameful for these rebels to bully more and less, their behavior of preferring death rather than betraying their companions still makes Mu Tianyi have a little more respect.
The climate of the snow-capped mountains is changeable, the snow is constantly falling, and in less than a pillar of incense, the corpses on the ground have been completely covered by the snow.
Luo Ning'er froze in place, she had never really understood her father's subordinates, and she didn't know what was going on in the army.
But at this moment, she already felt an unprecedented crisis, and her heart was full of panic.
"You came here for this cave too?" Mu Tianyi broke the silence and asked.
Luo Ning'er nodded and said, "Originally, yes, but now it's not, I want to rush back to Beichuan and tell my father what happened here." ”
"Aren't you afraid that they will rob you halfway?" Mu Tianyi felt that those people would not stop there, I am afraid that they are still hiding somewhere, waiting for the opportunity.
Luo Ning'er frowned, feeling that what Mu Tianyi said also made some sense.
So, he looked at Mu Tianyi and asked, "Are you willing to escort me back to the Beichuan Continent?"
"I'm sorry, I've come here to find something I need to find, I'm afraid I can't help you. Mu Tianyi decisively refused.
His instincts told him that this matter was by no means a simple assassination, and that he was in a hurry to find Xue Lingzhi and had no time to meddle.
"Okay! I'm abrupt, this cave may contain the treasure of some ancient powerhouse, I hope you can find it. ”
After that, Luo Ning'er flew up and rushed into the distance, her heart constantly echoing what had just happened, she was not a pampered county lord, and she naturally felt the strangeness of this.
