Zhou Zhao was shocked by the sudden movement of his opponent's magic power. He hurriedly cast a defensive spell but was caught off guard.
Bang! Like a clap of thunder, the magic power that Zhou Zhao had just gathered was destroyed. He spat out a mouthful of blood and flew out like a meteor.
Boom! A huge mountain thousands of feet away collapsed from the impact of the charging figure.
Gou Yue waved his arms and a formless wall of air blocked the outside of the Wang Residence. The arrow of blood that was in front of his face was disintegrated. The surging magic power was forcefully suppressed by him. Then, he waved his sleeves towards the sky and the impact of the magic power was directed towards the sky. It gradually dissipated and prevented the Wang Residence from being affected.
Just as the flying figure crashed into the huge mountain, four figures rushed out from the surroundings and rushed into the explosion of smoke and dust. The smoke and dust exploded again and the sounds of an intense battle were heard.
Outside the Wang Residence, Zhou Zhao's bodyguards were stunned. They did not expect the housekeeper of the Wang Residence, Gou Yue, to suddenly attack the marshal.
Amidst the smoke and dust, a few figures rushed into the sky. Four top-notch generals in six red armors escorted Zhou Zhao out. His mouth and nose were bleeding, his eyes were rolling back, his hair was disheveled, and he was missing an arm. Zhou Zhao was tied up tightly by a few red Immortal Binding Ropes.
Zhou Zhao's accompanying steward, Di Yan, immediately realized something. He abruptly shouted to his men, "If anything happens to the Marshal, none of us will have a good ending. Protecting the Marshal is equivalent to protecting ourselves. Kill!"
Hundreds of people immediately rushed towards the few people who were escorting Zhou Zhao in the air.
Bang! There was a thunderous sound in the air. A dazzling blood-red ray of light. At such a close distance, it was like a beam of light that pierced Di Yan who was leading the charge. Di Yan screamed in pain in the air. He was killed by a seventh-grade magic breaking bow!
The cloud in the air dissipated and a man holding a seventh-grade magic breaking bow appeared.
The four people who were escorting Zhou Zhao waved their hands and a row of people rose from the ground to block them. Each of them pulled their magic breaking bows and a group of heavenly generals holding magic breaking bows rushed out from the surrounding mountains. In an instant, streams of light shot out.
The hundreds of people who rushed out waved their hands and in an instant, a hundred thousand strong army appeared. Their shields were concentrated in defense and meteor arrows were shot out from the gaps in the shields.
Amidst the violent roar. Suddenly, battle cries shook the sky. Four groups of people rushed out from four different directions, closely following the Meteor Arrows.
The brilliance of all kinds of weapons of seven emotions and six sensory pleasures shone brightly, and the powerful waves of magic power seemed to be able to destroy the world, causing the sky and the earth to change color. Large tracts of mountains and rivers collapsed.
Gou Yue, who was standing in front of the gates of the Wang Residence, waved the flag in his hand and a hazy light barrier covered the entire mountain within the Wang Residence. The earth-shattering, earth-shattering, tsunami-like waves of Fa Li were immediately blocked by the powerful defensive power of the light barrier. Layers of ripples undulated on the light barrier. Gou Yue stood with his hands behind his back as he calmly watched the battle.
Everything in the surroundings seemed to be destroyed in an instant. Only the mountain peak that Gou Yue was standing on remained unmoved.
More than ten masked men dressed in black suddenly walked out of the residence and stood behind Gou Yue in a straight line.
The commotion was so loud that even a deaf person could hear it. Everyone in the Prince's Mansion came out in shock. However, a large number of armored soldiers appeared out of nowhere in the Prince's Mansion, eyeing everything in the Prince's Mansion covetously, preventing any strange movements in the Prince's Mansion. Many people were so scared that they didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
The expressions of the family members of the Prince's Mansion who were standing on the roofs of the courtyards all changed drastically. Guang Mei 'er half hugged her mother's arm, and her face was pale with fright. The scene of heaven and earth being destroyed was too frightening. Guang Mei' er had never seen such a frightening scene before. Even with the powerful defensive array, she could still feel the tremors under her feet, making people feel that the Prince's Mansion could be flipped over at any moment.
To most of the family members of the Prince's Mansion, they never thought that such a frightening thing could happen outside the Heavenly King's Mansion.
Mei Niang's face was also pale with fright as she looked around. She realized that many of the armored soldiers that suddenly appeared were very unfamiliar to her, as though she had never seen them before. She asked fearfully, "Prince, where is Prince?"
At this moment. A general in red armor flew over and landed on the roof. He cupped his hands and said, "Princess, Prince invites Princess and Young Miss over."
The mother and daughter naturally followed in a panic. At this moment, they could only find a trace of security by being by Prince's side.
On the best viewing tower in the inner garden, the long table was filled with food and wine. The Duke of Guang sat quietly drinking, looking coldly and calmly at the upheaval outside.
Mei Niang, who had come up, didn't care about etiquette. She ran in front of the Duke of Guang and said fearfully, "Prince, what is going on?"
The Duke of Guang tilted his head and smiled slightly, "Mei Niang, I haven't heard you play the zither in a long time."
"…" The slightly pale Mei Niang was speechless. In the end, under his powerful gaze, she walked in a disorderly manner to a small table at the side. She lifted her skirt and sat down. She took out the zither and placed it on the table. The tinkling sounds of the zither mixed with the loud roars outside under her slender fingers. However, the zither sounds were clearly disorderly, as though it was Mei Niang's emotions.
The Duke of Guang beckoned at Guang Mei 'er. The slightly panicked Guang Mei' er quickly stood to the side to pour wine for him.
The world outside was turning upside down, but the Duke of Guang sat high up in the pavilion as though it was none of his business. He raised his cup and drank slowly, looking on coldly from the side.
His calmness gradually gave the mother and daughter a strong sense of comfort, gradually calming them down.
The fighting power of Zhou Zhao's entourage was very strong. Under the siege of the Heavenly King's Residence, they fought for close to two hours before the earth-shaking commotion gradually subsided. As the last few loud noises disappeared, the world seemed to have calmed down. However, the dust outside was billowing, and nothing could be seen clearly.
Very quickly, the sound of the wind stirred up by the mana swept away the billowing dust outside. Looking at the fairyland-like Heavenly King's Residence, the mountains and rivers had either been razed to the ground or there were countless bottomless chasms. The entire ground was riddled with holes, and only the mountain peak where the Heavenly King's Residence was located stood out.
The surrounding large group of people were holding weapons and searching for something on the ground. Occasionally, they would pick up the heavily injured people who were still alive, but no one knew what they were going to do with them.
The bowl-shaped light barrier suddenly disappeared. Four generals in red armor flew over with Zhou Zhao in custody and forced him to kneel on the ground in front of Gou Yue.
Zhou Zhao, whose mouth and nose were dripping with blood, raised his head and looked at him. He hissed, "How dare you, Gou Yue, attack me! I want to see His Highness, I want to see His Highness! His Highness, I've been wronged! I've been wronged! "
Gou Yue looked down at him coldly and said, "Stop shouting, it's useless even if you break your throat. His Highness will never see you again."
Zhou Zhao's face turned pale. He didn't even need to think to know that this was Lord Guang's idea. Otherwise, no one in the Western Army would dare to touch him. Zhou Zhao's face turned sinister as he said, "If I die, my subordinates will fight to the death to protect themselves. When that happens, the Western Army will be in chaos and Lord Guang can forget about sitting on the throne!"
Gou Yue laughed coldly, "You think too highly of yourself. If His Highness doesn't even have this much control, how can he command the Western Army? If His Highness can help you up, he can kick you down. The Western Army lacks everything but officials. Are you afraid that no one will be willing to take your place? With Wang Ye holding the fort as a backer, stabilizing the overall situation and removing any worries, there are many people in the Wei Lu troops who want to replace you. If I'm not wrong, at the same time you were captured, the Wei Lu troops were already remonstrated. Your trusted subordinates probably didn't end up much better than you. "
Zhou Zhao's face twitched. He finally understood that today's incident was not a spur of the moment plan. It was premeditated. He struggled and roared, "Why? Why? Is it because of a dragon letter? You want to get rid of me for a dragon letter? Does Lord Guang believe in Long Xin's words and not mine? I've been subservient for so many years. Even if I don't have any merits, I've worked hard. Why? Why are you treating me like this? Where is the justice? Where is the justice? "
Gou Yue snorted, "Long Xin? Do you still think it's because of a dragon letter? Long Xin is nothing in His Highness's eyes. What does one less dragon letter mean? "
Zhou Zhao roared, "Then why? I've always followed Lord Guang's orders and have never disobeyed him! "
"Why?" Gou Yue suddenly pointed to the sky, "Are you blind? Didn't you see the recruitment of the Ghost City's main government office? You only saw Long Xin going to seek refuge. Didn't you see the number of people going to seek refuge in the Western Army? His Highness couldn't eat or sleep well after knowing about it. There are problems in the Western Army, but he didn't expect it to be this serious. You're the grand Marshal of the Western Army, can't you see the seriousness of the problem? In the long run, the Western Army will be vulnerable and destroy its own foundation! The recruitment situation of the Ghost City's main government office has made His Highness understand. The Western Army has reached a point where it has to be reorganized. Although it's painful to treat a broken arm, it has to be done. If His Highness doesn't do it, it will be more difficult for the later generations to handle it. I'm afraid that the later generations won't have the deterrent power that His Highness has for the Western Army! If you want to shock the tiger, you naturally have to pick someone with weight. Moving against you is to let the Western Army see His Highness's determination. You, Zhou Zhao, are a good example! " This long speech was to let Zhou Zhao know why he died. After all, the other side is a Marshal and has served Lord Guang loyally for many years.
"Ah!" Zhou Zhao suddenly cried out to the sky. He didn't expect that this was the reason for his death. He roared in anger: "Why me? Why me? This Marshal doesn't accept this! This Marshal doesn't accept this! "
"Long Xin seeking refuge in the Ghost City's main government office has pushed you to the teeth of the storm. Dealing with you will serve as a warning and comfort to the Western Army. Long Xin is more or less a catalyst. It can only be said that you just happened to run into it!" Gou Yue said coldly and waved his sleeves: "Take him away and wait for Heaven's decree to behead him in public!"
Zhou Zhao who was being dragged suddenly shouted: "I plead guilty. Let my family go! Let my family go!"
Gou Yue lowered his eyes: "It's too late! The time to move against you … is also the time to move against them! "
"Ah … What's the use of killing me? Even if it can be reorganized for a while, it can't be reorganized for a lifetime. The cycle of benefits will repeat itself … "Zhou Zhao shook his head and cried out in sorrow. He was dragged away. He could imagine the situation of the Zhou Residence being surrounded by the army. It would be a massacre, not even a chicken or dog would be spared. The Zhou Family, who had their glory and prestige for a while, would be in despair.
