Fog appeared, causing the dry air to have a hint of moisture.
Sun Mo hid under a roof and looked at the guards from Dark Dawn outside the Dragon Subduing Palace, feeling a headache.
Even though these black-robed men each guarded a spot and were separated by over 30 meters, they would definitely be heard if they fought.
"I suddenly feel like learning the poison manual."
Sun Mo sighed.
It was no wonder people said that one would only regret not having enough books when it was time to use them.
The art of poison did not have a good reputation, but it was the most suitable for carrying out silent assassinations. If Sun Mo knew how to use poison, he would be able to easily solve the problem of sneaking in.
Luckily, humans had three urgent needs. These darkness guards also had times when they needed to pee.
After Sun Mo squatted for over 20 minutes, a black-robed man greeted his companion and walked toward the wall in the distance.
"Thank the heavens, there's still someone who understands civilization!"
If he were to encounter a trash guy who would pee on the spot after loosening his belt, Sun Mo would really be at his wit's end. He didn't dare to delay and immediately sneaked over.
"Pharaoh, it's up to you now!"
The scarab immediately moved its long legs and crawled over. Before it got close, a soul shock had already blasted over. At the same time, a wave of bugs whizzed out.
Boom!
The black-robed guard was struck by the soul shock and felt dizzy. After that, he saw a large number of bugs flying over. He wanted to shout out a warning, but the bugs covered his head and then tunneled into his ears, nostrils, and mouth.
In an instant, they blocked his voice.
Not only that, but some bugs even forcefully squeezed through his eyeballs and invaded his brain from here, then devoured his brain juice.
The black-robed guard died instantly.
Before the corpse fell, Sun Mo held onto it to prevent the noise from being made. After that, he took a glance and felt so disgusted that he wanted to vomit.
"Quickly get rid of these bugs."
Sun Mo urged.
This situation was like a dead cat rotting by the roadside in summer with flies all over it.
"Master, aren't you burning the bridge after crossing the river a little too fast?"
Holy Pharaoh felt depressed. It had wanted to show off its contribution.
"I'll remember your contribution. After killing the black-robed man, you can have as much brain juice as you want!"
Sun Mo quickly took off the guard's black robe and wore it. It didn't really fit him, but he had no choice.
Drawing in a deep breath, Sun Mo recalled the black-robed man's walking posture and speed and returned to the teleportation formation.
"Tsk, so cautious."
Seeing this scene, Holy Pharaoh was impressed. It wasn't a loss for it to be a battle pet for such a person.
(If Sun Mo becomes a saint in the future, my status in the world would most probably be very high, right?)
I wonder if I can reach my level in Egypt!
Although Sun Mo was very anxious, he didn't enter the Dragon Subduing Palace immediately. He waited for another ten minutes before turning and stepping onto the teleportation array.
The other black-robed men glanced at him but did not react.
Dragon Roar Hall. At this moment, dragon roars were still ringing out.
Sun Mo lifted his eyes and looked over. The place was densely packed with black-robed people. They wore helmets and armor and were heavily stationed here. There were no less than 1,000 of them.
It seemed like the Four Division Star Lords also knew that they would not be able to obtain the Great Desolate Dragon Subduing Scripture before the Dragon Subduing Army returned. Hence, they were prepared to stall for time here.
After entering the second level, Sun Mo saw a small number of elites stationed here. Other than them, there were also many teachers and students who had become captives and were forced to squat in a corner.
When Sun Mo entered, the gazes of those elites immediately turned over.
"Did something happen?"
A man who clearly had a high status and might even be a star general asked.
"Damn, why are you guys reacting so strongly?"
Sun Mo was speechless. At such a time, he could only act according to the situation. Just when he was preparing to give an excuse, the sound of hurried footsteps rang out from outside.
Sun Mo immediately turned to the side and lifted his right hand. It was as if he was saying that he was with them.
As expected, the star general's gaze swept backward.
A group of black-robed men entered, pressing down on Wanyan Mei's group.
"These people had clearly run away, yet they came back to send themselves to death. What fools."
The star general leading the team mocked.
Sun Mo looked over and discovered that among the people who had left with Wanyan Mei, two great teachers and five students had disappeared. They should have been killed.
"Jin Country's princess? Haha, your contribution isn't small. Go and meet the Starlord! "
The star general congratulated him.
After this group of people left, Sun Mo naturally followed at the back of the team. No one suspected him.
In truth, other than Sun Mo's bold thoughts and flawless performance, it was also related to the black-robed men's arrogance. After all, who would have thought that someone would sneak in here?
One must know that this was no different from sending themselves to death.
In the great hall where Sun Mo had almost died, over 100 beastmasters and spirit controllers were studying the dragonman barrier, trying to crack it.
A middle-aged man had his arms crossed and was standing in the center of the great hall, deep in thought.
He was wearing a long black robe with auspicious clouds embroidered at the bottom. There were also two rings on his ring finger that had the word 'four' and 'elephant' engraved on them respectively.
Let alone activating Divine Sight, Sun Mo hurriedly lowered his head after taking a glance at him.
It was because top-notch experts like them had extremely sharp senses. They would be able to detect anyone sneaking glances at them.
The star general bowed and reported to the Four Symbols Starlords.
"Captured Princess Wanyan? Not bad. "
The Four Symbols Starlords praised. Their gazes swept past these captives. "What do you guys think of these barriers?"
No one could answer.
"Bring her away!"
The Four Symbols Starlords waved their hands and continued to focus on breaking the Giant Dragon Barrier.
There was no meaning for Sun Mo to stay here. Hence, he followed the star general's group out.
"Your highness!"
When the captives saw Wanyan Mei, a commotion broke out.
"You're not allowed to be noisy, or I'll cut off your tongues."
The star general threatened.
A moment later, the surroundings fell silent.
"What should I do now?"
Sun Mo racked his brains but couldn't think of a solution. Leaving aside the Starlord, he wouldn't be able to win against the six star generals in the great hall.
Time passed slowly. About half an hour later, the Four Symbols Star Lords walked out and made a gesture. Immediately, a Star General appeared and walked towards Wan Yanmei.
"What do you want to do?"
A great teacher spoke up but was kicked in the stomach by the star general.
"Headmaster Xiao, come out. Tell me the profoundness of the Great Desolate Dragon Subduing Scripture."
The Four Symbols Starlords' lips twitched. "Don't force me to kill."
If it was other captives, the weight wouldn't be enough, but it was different for Wanyan Mei.
After the Four Symbols Starlords spoke, they didn't waste any more time. After ten seconds, they suddenly flicked their fingers.
Swoosh!
A crescent-shaped spirit qi blade shot out, slashing toward Wanyan Mei's head.
However, at the instant it hit, it seemed to have collided with an invisible barrier and was dispersed.
"Stop it!"
An imposing voice rang out. "Even if you're a dark great teacher, you're a secondary saint after all. Don't you think it's too low of a standard to use a student's life to threaten others?"
Murong Ye walked in just like that.
One couldn't help but say that this fellow was really powerful. The heavy troops outside couldn't stop him at all.
"Headmaster Murong!"
"Vice-headmaster!"
"Boohoohoo, there's hope!"
When the captives saw Murong Ye, all of them became agitated. The black-robed men at the side immediately kicked and whipped them, telling them to keep quiet.
"Because I know that there will definitely be someone who will save her!"
The Four Symbols Starlords mocked, "I just didn't expect that the one who came would be a vice-headmaster and not the headmaster."
"Why? You seem to be looking down on me? "
Murong Ye's eyes narrowed.
"Isn't it very obvious? I want someone who knows the secret of the Great Desolate Dragon Subduing Scripture. You don't know it, so why did you come out? "
The Four Symbols Starlords mocked.
Although Murong Ye was a vice-headmaster, he also didn't understand the true meaning of the murals on the Giant Dragon Rampart.
Only the headmaster would be able to obtain the inheritance.
"Preposterous!"
Murong Ye was enraged and shot out like lightning.
The Four Symbols Starlords coldly laughed. A male eagle, a white tiger, a great python, and a huge tortoise immediately appeared around them. All of them attacked Murong Ye fiercely.
Although the Four Symbols Starlords said that they looked down on Murong Ye, how could someone who could become the vice-headmaster of a top-notch school like the Dragon Subduing Scripture be a weakling?
They naturally had to go all out.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As the two of them clashed, spirit qi erupted and the entire Dragon Subduing Palace trembled. Dust fell down from the ceiling.
Sun Mo really wanted to watch the battle, but his mind was in a mess from the agitated spirit qi and he was in great pain.
Hu!
The great python opened its mouth and spat out purple poisonous smoke.
The black-robed men brought the captives and immediately ran out.
"Resist!"
A great teacher wanted to make use of this opportunity to retaliate, but he was forced back by the combined forces of the two star generals and fell into the purple smoke.
"Ahh!"
This great teacher cried out in agony. The places where the purple smoke came into contact with instantly corroded his skin and flesh, leaving only bones behind.
He used both his hands and feet to crawl out. Even though he had left the purple smoke, it was useless. The corroded areas were still spreading.
This terrifying and cruel scene caused the other teachers and students who wanted to seize the opportunity to resist to feel as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over them, and they completely calmed down.
Everyone retreated.
The battle in the Dragonman Great Hall was intense, but it quieted down five minutes later.
The star generals exchanged a glance and then brought the captives in. When Wanyan Mei and the others saw the tattered corpse on the ground, they immediately let out sorrowful cries.
"Headmaster Murong!"
The group of people grieved for the death of a rabbit.
Vice-headmaster Murong was very powerful, but he was facing a secondary saint, one of the seven great Starlords of Dark Dawn.
"Isn't Headmaster Xiao in seclusion in the school? He's already in such a state, yet he's still not coming out? Could it be that it's so important to strive for the saint realm? "
"That's right. Our lives aren't important, but the Great Desolate Dragon Subduing Scripture is our school's ultimate divine art. If we lose it, what face do we have to call ourselves the Dragon Subduing Academy?"
"It's so embarrassing. A top-notch academy was wreaked havoc like they were strolling in their back garden, causing a complete mess. We've really lost all our face."
The great teachers cursed.
At this moment, they hated Xiao Fulong.
"Stop cursing, your headmaster is here!"
The Four Symbols Starlords suddenly spoke, unable to hold back his laughter. "As expected of the barbarians who believe in the law of the jungle. Even at such a time, you're still waiting for others to give it to you so you can take advantage."
An old man with snow-white hair walked in.
He wore a golden long robe with nine huge dragons of different colors embroidered on it. All the dragon heads were prostrating at his feet, looking very symbolic.
"You're mistaken. I'm worried that this is a trap. That's why I have no choice but to be more cautious."
Xiao Fulong seemed to be explaining to the Four Symbols Starlords, but he was actually saying it for Wanyan Mei and the others to hear.
As the headmaster, he also had to care about his face.
"Trap?"
The Four Symbols Starlords raised their brows. "Are you saying that Murong Ye and I teamed up to deceive you?"
"Yeah, after all, he has been coveting this seat under my butt for many years."
Xiao Fulong sighed.
"Then aren't you afraid that it's a trap now?"
The Four Symbols Starlords mocked.
"I'm not!"
Xiao Fulong sighed and looked at Murong Ye's corpse. "Because he's already dead."
Yes, he couldn't sense any signs of life at all.
"Murong Ye, I've wronged you. I apologize."
Xiao Fulong bowed.
He hid in the dark and didn't come out immediately because he wanted to see Murong Ye's reaction. The facts proved that he loved this school and these students.
Of course, he came out now not because he cared about Wanyan Mei's life, but because Murong Ye's death proved that there was no conspiracy here. It was time for him to clean up this mess.
"Four Symbols Starlords, although you're very strong, you're still not my match. If you want the Great Desolate Dragon Subduing Scripture, you'll need at least three Dark Saints to join forces or Daybreak Master to come personally."
As Xiao Fulong spoke, he suddenly pounced toward the Four Symbols Starlords.
As long as he killed him, all the danger would be over.
But just as Xiao Fulong rushed to the front of the Four Symbols Starlords and smashed his head with a palm, the Starlord suddenly exploded.
Boom!
A large amount of purple poisonous smoke filled the air.
"What?"
Xiao Fulong was shocked. 'I fell into a trap?'
"What's going on?"
Wanyan Mei was completely stunned. Even the principal couldn't do it? It felt like she had been completely predicted.
In the smoke, the battle was intense and the spiritual energy was surging.
Suddenly, Xiao Fulong dashed out, somewhat disheveled. He pounced toward the group of captives without stopping.
Two Star Generals tried to intercept him, but before they could touch him, their necks were suddenly twisted, their heads tilted to the back, and they died directly.
"Your Highness, I'll take you away first."
Xiao Fulong knew that he had fallen into a trap, so before he figured it out, he took Wanyan Mei away first. As for the lives of the others, it wasn't too important.
As for the Great Desolate Dragon Subduing Scripture?
Please, these people couldn't get it even if they racked their brains.
But at this moment, Duanmu Li suddenly made a move. With a flash, he appeared in front of Xiao Fulong and slapped with both palms.
Bang bang bang!
Xiao Fulong blocked all of them, but a venomous snake silently appeared from Wanyan Mei's chest and bit Xiao Fulong's neck.
Pak!
Xiao Fulong retreated rapidly, grabbed the venomous snake, and pulled it down.
The battle stopped.
However, everyone's face was filled with shock.
Other than this group of captives, even the black-robed men and Star Generals were no exception.
What on earth happened earlier?
In the crowd, Sun Mo's pupils contracted fiercely. He didn't expect that the situation would be 10,000 times worse than what he had expected.
Moreover, the Dragon Subduing Headmaster, who was treated as the trump card, was finished as well.
"You... You're a dark great teacher?"
Helian Xue felt that even her voice was trembling.
How powerful must one's battle prowess be to be able to seriously injure Xiao Fulong?
"Let me reintroduce myself. I'm Duanmu Li. In Dark Dawn, I have a title called Four Symbols Starlord."
Duanmu Li's voice was soft and slow, sounding very comfortable. However, the words he said caused everyone to be dumbfounded.
"Star... Starlord?"
Helian Xue and the others felt that their legs were trembling.
To speak the truth, they could totally surround and attack Duanmu Li at such a close distance, but no one dared to do so.
"Princess Wanyan, I've startled you."
Duanmu Li smiled lightly.
"Stop talking nonsense. Let's get down to business!"
From the purple poisonous smoke, an unexpected person walked out.
