On the eighth day, Zhong Shan had been immersed in lightning for eight days.
Daegun Province, Xuan City, Zhong Manor.
In a hall in front of Zhong Shan, Inglan was pacing back and forth. She was frowning as she listened to the butler's report.
"You're saying that the imperial family and the four great families have gathered eight hundred thousand soldiers? Eight hundred thousand? "asked Inglan gravely.
"Yes. Eight hundred thousand soldiers are surrounding Xuan City. The commoners are all panicking," said the butler worriedly.
"How is Xuan City's defense?" asked Inglan.
"Xuan City is completely under my Zhong Manor's control. Whether it's the guards or the soldiers, they all listen to the Zhong Manor's orders. However, there are only eight thousand soldiers guarding it. But this time, there are eight hundred thousand soldiers," said the butler.
"How are the uncles?" asked Inglan.
"Young masters, according to the pigeons, twenty-three of them have already been killed by assassins. The young masters outside have also been notified to pay attention to their own safety and to come back quickly. Young miss, do you still need to notify them to come back? With the army outside, will they dare to come back? "asked the butler worriedly.
"Notify them to come back. No matter what, as long as granduncle comes out of seclusion, he'll definitely be able to turn the situation around and have them come back. At the same time, we'll help granduncle choose which ones are worthy of being his adopted son," said Inglan coldly.
"The commoners are afraid and want to leave the city to hide. What should we do?" asked the butler worriedly.
"Hmph, put the entire city under martial law. Have three thousand soldiers patrol the city. If anyone tries to sow discord, kill them on the spot. Xuan City's commoners have received granduncle's kindness, and it's time to repay it. No one is allowed to leave the city, and those who enter must be carefully selected. Other than the uncles, no one is allowed to enter, "said Inglan murderously.
In front of Zhong Shan, Inglan acted cute, but in front of the big picture, Inglan was like a completely different person. She was like a general leading a million soldiers.
"Yes," said the butler immediately.
The Young Miss was indeed very similar to the Old Master. Both of them were decisive in their killing without any hesitation.
"Also, get all the Eight Bull Crossbows in position. Granduncle has already set up the crossbows in different places in Xuan City. Everyone, get ready. Split into three groups and prepare to face the enemy in the best state of mind." Inglan spoke again.
"Yes." The butler immediately nodded.
In the Mizar Hall of the Mizar Sect, the first generation disciples, Tian Xingzi, Gu Mingzi, and Xuan Xinzi, were standing there. There was also another woman in the hall. The woman was dressed in green and looked like a mortal in her thirties. She was very beautiful.
However, this green-clothed woman had a face full of anger. She pointed at Tian Xingzi, who was in the center, as if she wanted to skin him alive.
Strangely, Tian Xingzi wasn't angry in the slightest. Instead, he seemed ashamed. As for Gu Mingzi, he was also furious. He looked like he wanted to argue with the green-clothed woman. As for Xuan Xinzi, he also frowned. He was clearly very dissatisfied with this woman's taunting of the sect master.
The green-clothed woman was also furious. She pointed at Tian Xingzi, her face full of resentment. "Tian Xingzi, what do you have to say? Back then, my sister ignored her parents' fierce opposition and even betrayed her family to follow a good-for-nothing like you. What about you? Have you let her down? "Why did she die? Why didn't you die? Why didn't you die? How did you protect her? Do you think that just because your appearance changed a bit, you can redeem her? How was she so blind to fall in love with you? "
She angrily pointed at Tian Xingzi, as if she wanted Tian Xingzi to die as an apology.
Gu Mingzi finally couldn't bear it any longer.
"Enough. It's already been eleven days. Does it feel good to taunt the sect master every day? The sect master's wife is dead, but I've already told you what happened. The sect master's wife was willing to die. She died for the sect master. Do you think the sect master has had a good time all these years? Old, is this old on purpose? If it wasn't for the sect master's wife asking the sect master to live well before she died, would the sect master still be alive? Would he still be able to raise Ling 'er? "Gu Mingzi couldn't help but ask.
Hearing Gu Mingzi's words, the green-clothed woman's eyes widened. She held her breath and looked furious.
"Junior Sister, don't say anymore. She's right. I should have died. I should have gone down to find Wuyou." Two lines of tears slowly flowed down Tian Xingzi's eyes.
"Senior Brother, you can't be blamed for what happened back then. You should live well and avenge Nie Wuyou in the future." Xuan Xinzi also spoke softly.
"Avenge? How can I avenge him? I don't even know who that person is!" Tian Xingzi said somewhat crazily.
After the initial anger, the green-clothed woman kept staring at Tian Xingzi. Seeing Tian Xingzi like this, she knew his situation back then. However, knowing was one thing. His dearest sister had indeed died several decades ago. Moreover, before she died, she told Tian Xingzi not to spread the news to the family. She gave her life to Tian Xingzi, but he didn't protect her. He didn't protect her.
"Let me ask you, what about Ling 'er? You didn't protect her well, so are you going to let Ling' er go out like this? What if she encounters danger? "The green-clothed woman immediately said angrily.
"Ling 'er, I gave her to a reliable person. With him, Ling' er definitely won't be in danger." Tian Xingzi immediately said.
"A reliable person? Who? What's their cultivation? Is it Heavenly Kill? "The green-clothed woman asked again.
"Not Heavenly Kill, it's a new disciple called Zhong Shan. He's at Xiantian third stage." Tian Xingzi said.
"Xiantian third stage? Xiantian third stage is reliable? Have you ever cared about Ling 'er? Ridiculous, ridiculous! "The green-clothed woman shouted angrily.
"If I say Ling 'er is safe, then she's definitely safe." Tian Xingzi's voice suddenly became louder, as if he couldn't hold it in anymore. It was also as if the green-clothed woman's words had touched his bottom line.
"Father ~ ~ ~ ~"
Outside of Mizar Hall, Tian Ling 'er's cries suddenly rang out. This cry sounded so haggard, so desperate, and so desperate.
Hearing this voice, Tian Xingzi was shocked. He didn't even greet the others. With a sway of his body, he suddenly flew out.
How could this be? How could Ling 'er make such a cry? It was due to a lack of vital energy and extreme exhaustion.
Gu Mingzi and Xuan Xinzi also flew out with a shake of their bodies. The woman in green seemed to have realized who had shouted and immediately chased after them with a shake of her body.
The moment Tian Xingzi came out of the hall, he saw a disheveled person with a dirty face and messy hair.
The lightning and tears from before had dissolved a lot of Zhong Shan's disguise gel. Her entire face looked dirty, and one couldn't see her original porcelain doll-like beautiful face at all.
However, Tian Xingzi still recognized Tian Ling 'er at a glance. Heavens, how did Ling' er become like this? Why was she in such a sorry state? Her True Essence was almost exhausted. How could this be?
Tian Xingzi rushed forward and hugged Tian Ling 'er. He channeled his True Essence into Tian Ling' er's body and quickly took out a pill to stuff Ling 'er's mouth.
Zhong Shan? How did Zhong Shan do things?
When the green-clothed woman saw Tian Ling 'er's sorry state, her heart tightened. Was this her elder sister's daughter? How did she end up like this? Heavens, how did Tian Xingzi take care of Tian Ling 'er?
Ling 'er pushed away the pill in Tian Xingzi's hand and immediately said, "Quick, quick, save Zhong Shan, quick!"
Tian Ling 'er cried and shouted miserably. It was as if the time it took to eat a pill could delay saving Zhong Shan.
"Zhong Shan? Eat this pill first, then we'll talk slowly. "Tian Xingzi immediately said anxiously. How did his daughter end up like this?
"No, don't, quick, in the valley of the lightning flower. Quick, father, save Zhong Shan. Please, save Zhong Shan." Tian Ling 'er refused to eat the pill and kept begging.
"Okay, you recuperate here. Junior Sister, you take care of Ling 'er. I'll go find Zhong Shan." Tian Xingzi said without hesitation. He didn't care about what happened. His heart ached for his daughter, so he didn't think about it anymore.
"No, don't, I want to go with you. I also want to go. If Zhong Shan dies, I, I don't want to live either." Ling 'er immediately cried.
At this moment, everyone knew the severity of the situation. No matter what happened, they had to immediately go to the place Ling 'er said.
"Let's go." Tian Xingzi carried Ling 'er and flew out of the Mizar Sect.
Gu Hezi and Xuan Xinzi naturally followed.
The azure-clothed woman's heart clenched. This was her elder sister's daughter. How did she end up like this?
As everyone flew out of the Mizar Sect's formation, the azure-clothed woman suddenly called out to the sky, "Qing 'er!"
"Neigh ~ ~ ~"
A cry that seemed to pierce through the clouds came from the horizon. Then, a black dot rapidly flew over, arriving in front of everyone in the blink of an eye.
It was an enormous azure luan. It was three hundred meters long and incomparably large. It was the azure luan Zhong Shan's group had seen before entering the Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation.
"Get on, Qing 'er is faster than you." The azure-clothed woman immediately called out.
Tian Xingzi didn't hesitate and quickly stepped onto the azure luan's back.
"Qing 'er, this is extremely urgent. I'll have to trouble you." The azure-clothed woman said.
"Mm, don't worry." The azure luan actually spoke human language.
Then, under Tian Xingzi's guidance, it rapidly shot towards a certain direction.
At this moment, Tian Ling 'er seemed to have seen the azure-clothed woman. With a glance, she couldn't help but softly call out, "Mother, is that you?"
