Si Wuya, Shen Xi, and the others were more than enough to deal with the beasts in the capital.
Only the Black Lotus Army was nowhere to be seen. The enemy was in the dark while Great Tang was in the light. And why did the enemy choose these four? It was useless to think about all this now. He had to hurry up and recover his Tai Xuan Power. In this situation, even if he had the Tai Xuan Card, it would not be easy to deal with. After all, the duration of the Tai Xuan Card was very short.
Furthermore, it was extremely difficult to obtain a Peak Strengthening Card, and one would need at least three of them …
Lu Zhou observed North Mountain Path where Yu Zhenghai was. The situation there was calmer than Yu Shangrong's.
There was no need to worry about Lu Li and Yan Zhenluo. Yan Zhenluo had six Birth Columns and he had the support of the white tower. It would not be a problem for him to fight off the beasts.
"To catch bandits, first catch the ringleader."
As long as he kept an eye on the Black Emperor and Beast Emperor and dealt with the two of them, the other problems would be easily solved.
"Report —"
Zhao Hongfu's voice could be heard.
"Come in."
Zhao Hongfu, Si Wuya, and Lu Qianshan entered the Great Hall of Runes together.
Lu Zhou asked in confusion, "Lu Qianshan?"
Lu Qianshan looked up. It was Lu Zhou in his Appearance Alteration Card form. He asked in confusion, "Where's Pavilion Master Lu?"
Zhao Hongfu awkwardly said, "This is Pavilion Master Lu."
Lu Qianshan was completely baffled. He was completely confused by the sudden change between the old and the young.
"Greetings, Pavilion Master Lu." Lu Qianshan said.
"Why are you here?"
"Ever since Pavilion Master Lu parted ways, the imperial court has treated us pretty well, but they didn't expect me to have spies in the palace. After that, thanks to Mister Seventh's secret information, I had no choice but to lead the Lu Clan out of the capital city, "Lu Qianshan said.
Lu Qianshan had previously offended the Black Emperor, and there was no place for him in the capital city.
Si Wuya said, "Master, I've discovered something."
"Speak."
Si Wuya placed the map on the ground and said, "This is the Jiannan Circuit, in the southwest of Shu. This is the North Mountain Circuit, the North River Circuit, and the East River Circuit. Coincidentally, these four locations were all close to the outskirts of Great Tang. If they wanted to carry out the purge plan, they could go on a killing spree. The cultivators of Great Tang as a whole were far inferior to them. So … I suspect that they don't just want to start the elimination plan, but have other motives. "
He glanced at Lu Qianshan and continued, "General Lu has met the Black Emperor many times. Eunuch Zhang once accidentally revealed a crucial piece of information …"
Lu Qianshan added,
"According to Eunuch Zhang's original words, His Majesty has devoted himself to cultivation all these years and tried an unprecedented path of cultivation. That's why the Black Tower, the Great Underworld, and other forces have the opportunity to rise."
Lu Zhou was puzzled.
"An unprecedented path of cultivation? What does it have to do with this war? "
Lu Qianshan shook his head and said, "I don't know about that …"
Si Wuya pointed at the map.
"The location they chose just happens to be where Vicious Beasts roam. I suspect … that they are also waiting for an opportunity. "
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded.
"Are there any abnormalities everywhere?"
"Not yet …" Si Wuya shook his head. "I have a feeling that I've missed something important, but I can't seem to recall it."
Lu Qianshan smiled and said, "There's no hurry. It's already commendable that Mister Seventh was able to deduce so much information from just one sentence from Eunuch Zhang."
This information was not completely useless. At the very least, it showed that Mu 'erte was wary of Lu Zhou and did not dare to show himself.
Dark Light and the ferocious beasts had indeed become cannon fodder.
Zhao Hongfu said,
"The Pavilion Master has already gone to River East Road. The crisis there has been temporarily resolved, and the White Tower's reinforcements have arrived. The leader of the Radiant Dark Tigers, Li Tianze, had been killed by the Pavilion Master. There's no need to worry. With the Pavilion Master around, Mu 'erte won't be able to do anything. "
When Si Wuya heard this, something stirred in him.
"Master, the more it's like this, the more careful we have to be. Injuries and deaths are unavoidable. We should sacrifice when we need to. Don't fall for their tricks."
Lu Zhou nodded slightly. "I know what I'm doing. Continue observing. Report to me immediately if you notice anything."
"Yes."
He waved his hand.
Everyone bowed at the same time and left the rune hall.
Lu Zhou observed Zhu Honggong's condition again. When he discovered the black lotus and the beast had been repelled, he retracted his power and entered a meditative state.
…
At the same time, in Northsword Pass.
Duanmu Sheng faced the setting sun. His body was a mixture of blood and sweat.
He could no longer remember how many times he had swung his gun.
Countless of them.
The mountain of corpses under his feet was the best proof.
It was a mountain of the Lili army's corpses. It was hundreds of feet tall. Duanmu Sheng wielded his Overlord Spear as he stood on top of the mountain of corpses. He swung his spear with all his might. Every time a Lili charged at him, he would stab them to death with his spear.
The reddish-purple blood flowed down the Lili army's corpses and seeped into the ground. The plants within hundreds of meters of him had long withered.
"Again!"
Bam!
"I'll kill as many as they come!"
Bam! Bam!
Bam! Bam! Bam! An endless stream of Lilis charged at Northsword Pass from the grasslands that spanned several thousand meters to the north of the two mountains.
Duanmu Sheng was too tired. He was so tired that his movements had slowed down.
He was growing numb.
After what seemed like an eternity …
Behind Lili's army, a black silhouette drifted over.
The only black figure hovering in the air arrived before Northsword Pass's mountain at lightning speed. He stood there calmly.
He glanced at Duanmu Sheng who was covered in blood. A mocking smile appeared on his face.
"I was wondering who ruined the plan. Turns out, it's a piece of trash."
Duanmu Sheng's eyes widened in anger. He thrust his Overlord Spear forward and said, "Who are you?"
The black-robed man said indifferently,
"Who I am isn't important. What's important is that you've done something you shouldn't have. Do you have anything to say before you die? "
Duanmu Sheng was not afraid at all.
Instead, he asked in confusion, "Did you do this to the Lilis?"
The black-robed man did not try to hide anything. He said frankly, "They're greedy and ignorant. The Lilis can purify their souls and cleanse the sins of the red lotus domain."
"Don't talk to me about this … This thing is extremely evil. What's your goal?" Duanmu Sheng asked.
The black-robed cultivator found it difficult to communicate with this person. He was as hard as a rock.
"If I don't teach you a lesson, you won't know who you're talking to."
He raised his palm.
A circular Daoist energy seal appeared in the air. There was a black beam of light in the center of the black circle.
He did not hesitate and launched his palm strike.
This palm strike was enough to kill this piece of trash. He did not need much strength. It was as easy as killing an ant.
Duanmu Sheng's expression changed drastically. This was the Thousand Realms Palm Seal … It was not something a weak Nine-leaf cultivator like him could compare to.
However, he could only raise his Overlord Spear and hold it before himself.
Bam!
Duanmu Sheng's arms went numb. He spat out a mouthful of blood and flew off the mountain of corpses before crashing to the ground.
Duanmu Sheng's tough body had been forged from years of being beaten up and the characteristics of his cultivation method.
The black-robed cultivator appeared shocked. He flew forward and looked at the Lilis's corpse around him. He clicked his tongue in wonder and said, "You're a tenacious and courageous person. Alas, you nearly ruined our grand plan. "
Duanmu Sheng looked up. His eyes burned as he looked at the black-robed cultivator hovering above the mountain of corpses.
The black-robed cultivator turned around and said, "You're quite tough.
Time is limited. I won't play with you anymore. " Without another word, he launched three more palm strikes.
The black-robed cultivator launched three more palm strikes.
This time, the black-robed cultivator's palm strikes were no longer as casual as before.
The three palm strikes flew up and down. Before Duanmu Sheng landed on the ground, he had sealed off his escape routes.
Duanmu Sheng no longer dodged. He lay on the ground and looked up slightly before he sighed.
Bam!
A beam of white light descended from the sky and pierced the ground, blocking the black energy seal.
Energy rippled.
Duanmu Sheng looked up and saw a white-robed cultivator in the air. The cultivator was looking at him with a smile.
"You can't kill him."
"White Tower?" The black-robed cultivator exclaimed in shock.
"I'm entrusted by the Evil Sky Pavilion's Si Wuya to ensure his safety. You may leave," the white-robed cultivator said.
