Chapter 19: The Ethereal Cliff Forest

It wasn't until the third day that the eldest prince and the second prince led their subordinates out of the dungeon and reported the results of the investigation to Lan Qinggu, and I don't know what they found, most of the Cheng family and other people who were arrested, a total of more than 700 people, were directly sentenced to death and immediately beheaded.

More than 700 people were beheaded at once, and the sky above Huanglan City was suddenly filled with blood and qi, and the clouds were shrouded, and everyone felt that a huge stone was pressed in their hearts.

More than 700 people, including the Cheng family, a former first-class family in the empire, were sentenced to death by the emperor's edict and put on the gallows, which is really sad and lamentable.

......

Lan Tiancheng, in Lan Wuyong's study, Lan Wuyong, who had not slept all night, paced back and forth in the study with a solemn face, and his face had long since lost the original light and light wind.

Lan Mingyan also frowned.

"Your Highness, now that the situation is in crisis, my subordinates suggest that the agreement with Qin Mu be canceled immediately, and someone will be sent to get rid of them today, so as not to expose the matter and cause a fire!"

"No!" Lan Wuyong paused and said coldly: "Lan Huaijin and Lan Huaiyu have increased their prestige a lot with the help of their father's order this time, if I lose Qin Mu's side again, I really won't have a chance in the future!"

Lan Mingyan didn't answer, he understood Lan Wuyong's character, since he had decided, he would never change it, even if there were thousands of difficulties and dangers ahead, he would go on.

This is the ruthlessness rooted in Lan Wuyong's heart.

Lan Wuyong looked at the silent night outside the window, suddenly laughed, and said, "Heh, I didn't expect that there was a master behind this kid Qin Mu, and he would come with me." ”

Lan Mingyan was a little puzzled and looked at him suspiciously.

"I still underestimated this kid, or we underestimated the person behind Qin Mu's back who instructed him to do things, I always thought that Qin Mu's action this time was to ask me to help kill people, but I didn't expect that their target this time was three people, and now the target three have gone to the second, leaving the last person in our hands, Qin Pindi. The fourth son of the Qin Sect, if Brother Qin Pin is also killed, it will be completely destroyed, and the people behind him want the Qin family to be the queen!"

"But this kid secretly tricked me, didn't tell me that their target was three people, and he pushed me into a desperate situation. Now the eldest brother and the second brother are investigating the death of the third son of the Qin family, and if I do it tomorrow night at the latest time as agreed, the risk is not small. ”

"They are trying to force me into their chariot, and they have completely tied me up!"

Lan Mingyan is not a stupid person, after Lan Wuyong said this, he already understood 100 percent, and by the way, he also thought of other things: "Your Highness, we have to be careful, this thing is too weird, will everything these days be a conspiracy, just to lure us out and expose us! Although this possibility is very small, it does not mean that there is none, so I suggest that you leave a back hand!"

"The Gao family, Qin Mu, there must be a choice between the two. One side is chosen, and the other must promise to disappear completely. ”

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in the corner of Lan Mingyan's eyes.

"En" Lan Wuyong nodded in agreement with him, and then gave an order: "Everything must be prepared with two hands, you go and contact the Gao family, and order them to solve the target by tomorrow night, and meet in the ethereal cliff forest outside the city at three o'clock, and then I will give them Qin Mu's address information." At the same time, arrange for someone to contact Qin Mu and give him the news. ”

"Then why don't you send someone over to prevent accidents?" Lan Ming said.

"When the time comes, we'll sit back and watch the fight and see which side is more worthy of our bets. As for the losers, give them a ride, and they must not be allowed to spoil the good deeds of this king!" Lan Wuyong's eyes flashed with a strange light, cold as a demon.

"Yes!"

Lan Mingyan understood, Lan Wuyong wanted to completely solve one of them, no matter which side failed, he would never let them go, the person who knew Lan Wuyong's secret, and the person who could threaten his life, had only a dead end.

......

The next day, the empire still had a heavy haze.

The empire became dangerous because of the order of the emperor Lan Qinggu, and the ministers competed to show their loyalty to the emperor on various occasions in various overt and covert ways, and the major forces also met Lan Qinggu in a very short period of time and expressed their loyalty to the empire.

It can be said that this simple trick of knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger has had an unexpected effect, but it is a pity that the Cheng family has become a scapegoat, turned into the dust of history, and wiped out the occasion of the years.

Talking about the Cheng family, a former first-class family, everyone can only sigh, the struggle for power, the winner lives, the loser dies, there is no third possibility, and the time is also fate.

In the blink of an eye, the time has reached the fifth day, and today is the last agreed time between Qin Mu and Lan Ping, and it is also the agreed time between Qin Mu and Lan Wuyong.

As the sun set, Qin Mu left the practice room alone, left Huanglan City with Bailing, went outside the city, and secretly met Yu Long and them.

Today was the day he planned to make an appointment with Lan Ping, Lan Wuyong, and Mo Huayue, and it was also the day when he was ready to eradicate the Gao family in one fell swoop, so he felt extremely nervous in his heart.

Extremely stressful.

The Ethereal Cliff Forest, an ancient jungle in the eastern part of the empire, was the location he agreed with Lan Wuyong, Lan Ping, and Mo Huayue this time, because it was located in a desolate place, so few people haunted.

Soon, a dark cloud floated in the sky and fell in front of everyone.

"Here ......

Qin Mu looked at the three people who walked out of the dark clouds, one of them was Mo Huayue after the disguise, and there was also a man with a cold temperament on the left and right, cold as frost, and extremely evil.

Yu Long and the others swept over the two of them at a glance and found that the two guards were actually cultivating at the beginning of the Tengyun Realm, but they didn't know whether it was the early or middle stage, but the condensed mana faintly emanating from the other party would never be bad.

Qin Mu saw the same aura from these two people as Lan Ping's three subordinates he saw last time, with a dark temperament in the cold.

The Mo family, on the surface, there are only Mo Huayue and Mo Liangdao, as well as Mo Chuyan, who is already unknown to him, and three Tengyun Realm monks, but now there are two more people standing here, it seems that the background of the major families in the empire is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

"Only such a few people?" Mo Huayue glanced at the seven people of Yu Long, Qin Mu and Bai Ling, the nine people combined, and frowned slightly, this point of people to deal with the twenty-six of the Gao family is indeed a bit less.

However, there was obvious embarrassment on his face, after all, the fall of Jiuwang Mountain was also the Mo family's share, although the Mo family also tasted the consequences because of this. Most of the reasons for this combination are because Qin Mu is the middleman in the middle, otherwise with their yellow-faced character, they really won't necessarily accept Mo Huayue.

"Enough ......"

Qin Mu's face was as heavy as iron, and he replied without emotion, and then said: "There is still a long time before the agreed time, let's prepare in advance." ”

And they lifted up their feet, and began to act.

"Xiao Mu, what's your plan?" Mo Huayue followed Qin Mu out towards the depths of the Ethereal Cliff Forest, asking as she walked.

"Borrowing a knife to kill ......"

Qin Mu only nodded a little, and then stopped explaining, now is not the time to tell the whole story. Mo Huayue was also surprised in her heart, but she wisely didn't ask anything more.

......

Time is fleeting.

Soon the time will come.

The moon had climbed into the sky, sprinkling the moonlight through the sparse jungle and falling into the ethereal forest, mottled with dots.

Qin Mu and Bai Ling stood side by side in a valley deep in the ethereal cliff forest, their faces expressionless, sad and joyless, like two sculptures, and the silent atmosphere was a little dull.

Bai Ling suddenly turned his head to look at Qin Mu and said in a low voice, "Succeeded?"

When Qin Mu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly understood what she was asking, a few days ago, he retreated and impacted the flesh and stepping on the clouds, and Bai Ling also knew about it, but he came here as soon as he came out of the pass, and he never told her.

"En," Qin Mu nodded.

There was a long silence again.

"After this is dealt with, I will leave for a while and go into retreat. Bai Ling said suddenly.

"Yes. ”

Qin Mu still answered and didn't say anything.

Although the two have been together for a long, long time, there are really only a handful of words they have spoken, and the blunt chat style and awkward atmosphere are probably only the two of them can bear.

Short, uninteresting chats come and go faster.

There was a long silence again.

Time passed minute by minute.

It's going to be three o'clock in the blink of an eye.

After waiting for a few more minutes, Qin Mu and Bai Ling's bodies suddenly shook at the same time, their eyes radiated essence, they glanced at each other, and looked into the distance.
