Shen Luo struggled to get up. His internal organs were shaken, and his bones were almost all broken. Blood flowed out of his nose and mouth. Fortunately, the Great Skin Stripping Technique was already working on its own, helping him to repair the damage in his body bit by bit.
Three scarlet flying swords flew out of the flame giant's back in a triangular formation and disappeared into Shen Luo's sleeve.
"Die …" Another roar was heard.
The flame giant's posture changed from holding the saber with one hand to holding it with both hands. The flames on its body surged, and the spiritual pressure it emitted rose steadily, becoming more and more terrifying.
At the same time, the flame giant's figure also began to change. Its body became thinner and thinner, and nine thick flames rose into the sky behind it, like nine huge flaming tails.
"Nine-tailed Divine Fox …" Shen Luo looked at the huge fox shadow formed by the flame giant and could not help but murmur.
"Huff, huff, huff …"
Waves of powerful spiritual pressure erupted from the fox shadow's body, as if it was solid, constantly oppressing the surroundings, causing the surrounding flames to sway violently. Anyone could see that the power of this attack was far stronger than before, and it was very likely to be a sure-kill attack.
"Brother Shen, we can't fight it head-on …" Hu Bugui endured the powerful pressure and came to Shen Luo's side.
The two of them stood side by side to protect Mi Su, looked at each other, and nodded silently.
They knew that the next attack might not be able to completely block it even if the two of them worked together, but at least they had to protect Mi Su's life.
Shen Luo hesitated in his heart, wondering if he should summon Ghost General Zhao Feiji. After all, he was already at the early stage of the True Immortal Realm. If the three of them worked together, their chances of survival would be higher.
At that moment, an unbelievable scene occurred!
The huge fox shadow holding the saber with both hands suddenly roared into the sky without warning. The nine huge fox tails retracted, and its body gradually shrank until it merged into the wall of fire and disappeared.
Shen Luo and the rest did not know what was going on. Just as they looked around in confusion, they suddenly saw a gap in the wall of fire in front of them, and the scarlet flames quickly retreated to both sides.
Behind the retreating wall of fire, several figures were revealed — they were all elders of the Green Hill Foxes.
The two people standing at the front were the King of Qing Qiu, the First Elder, and Master Su. It was the two of them who worked together to cast a spell and blocked the last attack of the formation's fire spirit.
"Grandma …"
The moment Misu saw her grandmother, tears gushed out of her eyes.
"Bastard, hurry up and get over here." One of the strategists' faces was livid. He had no intention of comforting her at all and said coldly.
When Shen Luo and Hu Bu Gui heard this, they immediately walked down the altar resentfully.
Mi Su didn't dare to look at her grandmother's face. She carefully followed behind Shen Luo and walked down the altar.
"Monarch, Grand Elder …"
"Arrest him." Before Shen Luo could finish speaking, Chief Strategist Su gave the order.
Several elders of the Green Hill Foxes immediately cast a spell. Two ropes made of green vines had already wrapped around Shen Luo and Hu Bu Gui, tying their hands behind their backs.
Shen Luo and Hu Bu Gui knew that they had made a mistake and understood the current situation. They obediently allowed themselves to be arrested and did not resist at all.
"Grandma, we …"
When Misu saw this, she immediately pleaded for mercy, but was stopped by a stern "shut up" from Chief Strategist Su.
"What are you waiting for? Tie her up as well." One of the strategists glanced at the elders beside him and said angrily.
When the elders saw this, they could only take out ropes and quickly tied Misu up tightly as well.
"Monarch, Grand Elder, may I explain myself?" Shen Luo tried to ask.
"Hmph, no matter what reason you have for trespassing on the forbidden grounds of the Green Hill Foxes, it's a capital offense." One of the strategists snorted and said.
"Don't be hasty, Grand Elder. There's no harm in listening to them first." The Green Hill Monarch said with a calm expression.
"Thank you, Milord. Earlier, this junior …" Shen Luo immediately recounted what he had discovered earlier.
Unexpectedly, just as he finished speaking, the group of elders of the Green Hill Foxes flew into a rage.
"What do you mean by that? Do you think that someone deliberately led you to the altar? "The eagle-nosed elder glared and said angrily.
"I'm just stating the facts. We did sense the presence of the giant fox shadow that appeared in Chang 'an that day. Otherwise, we wouldn't have rushed into the forbidden grounds in a hurry," Shen Luo said.
"Not just anyone can barge into this ancestral land's altar. You said that you sensed the aura of that fox shadow here. Could it be that you want to say that the culprit is hiding here?" One of the leaders raised his eyebrows and asked coldly.
"If not just anyone can enter this place, why weren't we blocked when we came in earlier? Instead, why did they suddenly attack us after we entered? "Shen Luo sensed that her tone was unfriendly and immediately asked in return.
One of the strategists was stunned and could not refute for a moment.
"Our ancestral grounds are the resting place of our ancestors' souls. It's impossible for the younger generation of the Foxes to hide here. If there are outsiders invading, it will trigger the attack of the guardian formation like you did before. However, the ignorant are innocent. Since it's your first offense, I won't pursue the matter this time, "the Green Hill Monarch said slowly after a moment of silence.
"The way I see it, they are spies sent by the humans and immortals. They are trying to destroy our clan's protective formation. Fortunately, when their army arrived, we were unable to resist at all," said the hawk-nosed elder.
"Elder Su Xiao is right. It must be so. Otherwise, it doesn't make sense why they came to our Green Hill at this time," another elder said.
"Trespassing into our ancestral grounds and disturbing the rest of our ancestors. What should we do?" One of the strategists asked.
She narrowed her eyes and looked at the Monarch of the Green Hill Monarch. That sentence seemed to be asking the other elders, but it was actually questioning her.
The Monarch of the Green Hill Monarch did not look at her, nor did he speak. There was some hesitation in his eyes.
"According to the crime, they should be killed," Su Xiao said in a deep voice.
"They should be killed, they should be killed, they should be killed …" Most of the elders said in unison.
Shen Luo frowned slightly when he heard that. His fists that were tied behind him could not help but clench tightly.
"Elders, am I still the Monarch of the Green Hill Monarch?" When the Monarch of the Green Hill Monarch spoke, everyone suddenly quieted down.
"Of course you are," one of the strategists said with an unchanged expression.
"Since I said I won't pursue the matter, do you have any objections?" The Monarch of the Green Hill Monarch frowned.
"I don't dare. It's just trespassing into the ancestral grounds and disturbing the ancestors' souls. We can't just let it go, right? "One of the strategists asked.
"How do you think we should deal with it?" The Monarch of the Green Hill Monarch asked.
"Monarch, trespassing into the ancestral grounds is justified and reasonable. Since we can't deal with it according to the clan rules, why don't we let our young friend Shen take a blow from me? Don't worry, I won't use my full strength. I just want him to not look down on our Green Hill Fox Clan, "the eagle-nosed elder named Su Xiao suddenly said.
