Night began to fall!
A chill started to spread. This chill made him tighten his collar a little!
Dark clouds pressed down on the city, threatening to destroy it! This was the situation that Qian City was facing.
Early in the morning, the entire Qian City fell into silence, as if there was no sound! On the streets, the bustling scene of the past could no longer be seen.
In fact, the only thing that could be seen in Qian City were scattered lights! Occasionally, a few passersby on the street would be in a hurry, with a trace of worry and nervousness on their faces. Or perhaps, they passed by groups of warriors filled with a murderous aura. This gave off an incomparably depressing feeling.
The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
A storm was brewing!
Not only Qian City, but the entire Alliance of Nine Cities felt the same.
That was because the Dragon Slaying Pavilion had arrived.
"Phew …"
Hong City, which was not far from Qian City, was also covered in darkness. Dozens of figures stood outside Hong City. In the dark of the night, they gave off a chilling vibe.
Looking at the city in front of them, an old man let out a sigh of relief.
"We've finally arrived at Hong City!"
The old man's lips curled into a smile.
"Elder Hu, what should we do now …"
Looking at the city in front of them, a figure beside the old man furrowed his brows and asked softly.
However, due to a mistake, an undetectable glint flashed across the figure's eyes at this moment.
At the very least, it was impossible for this person who was addressed as Elder Hu to notice this.
"Us? What should we do? "
Hearing the man's question, Elder Hu didn't turn his head. The corners of his lips curled up as he muttered to himself.
"Elder Gong means that we don't need to reorganize when we get here. We just need to take Hong City directly! Right now, the Wang Family had probably placed all of their energy on Qian City. They wouldn't have expected us to split into three groups. With our current strength, taking down Hong City will be a piece of cake! "
The man said calmly.
"Oh? Is that so? "
Hearing the man's words, Elder Hu raised his brows.
"Elder Gong … Hehe …"
Seeming to have thought of something, Elder Hu chuckled.
However, a complicated expression flashed across his face.
"What if I don't agree?"
Suddenly, Elder Hu seemed to have made a decision and asked softly.
"What will you do? Elder Xiao? "
Elder Hu turned around and looked at the middle-aged man who was addressed as Elder Xiao.
That's right! The person known as Elder Hu was the old man who had spoken to Elder Gong in the valley. He was one of the elders of the Dragon Slaying Pavilion. His strength was not the strongest, and his status was ordinary! However, in this operation, he was definitely an important figure. Under Elder Gong's instructions, Hong City's affairs were handed over to him to handle.
As for Elder Xiao? His position was even lower than Elder Hu's, and he could be considered as one of the newly promoted elders in recent years. He was definitely Elder Gong's lackey.
However, at this moment, Elder Hu's gaze towards Elder Xiao was cold and firm, without the slightest flicker.
Boom …
Elder Hu's words exploded in Elder Xiao's ears like a clap of thunder.
"What? You … "
Elder Xiao widened his eyes in disbelief as he stared at Elder Hu.
"It really is you! Heavenly Hu! You actually betrayed the Dragon Slaying Pavilion like Mou Tianxiang? "
As if he had received confirmation, Elder Xiao hurriedly took a few steps back and shouted at Hu Tianren.
"Mou Tianxiang? Elder Mou? That's right! What a pity! "
Hearing the name Mou Tianxiang, Hu Tianren sighed. However, his gaze became even more resolute.
That's right. Now that things had come to this, he had no other choice.
When he first embarked on this path, he had no other choice! Wasn't that so?
Furthermore, how many people had sacrificed themselves for this? At least, Mou Tianxiang had done so!
Who knew how much impact Mou Tianxiang's death had on Hu Tianren? That was because his relationship with Mou Tianxiang was the one that was truly the best. It was just that very few people knew about this.
However, how could Hu Tianren let go of this matter?
He had to continue on this path, even if it was to account for Mou Tianxiang and the others, even if it was to respect his own beliefs!
"Bastard! Hu Tianren, you are indeed like this! Looks like Elder Gong's guess was right! Hmph, you betrayed the Dragon Slaying Pavilion! Don't you know the consequences of betraying the Dragon Slaying Pavilion? Elder Mou's outcome will be your outcome! Now, it's not too late for you to turn back! Elder Gong can stop pursuing this matter. Elder Gong will naturally explain to the Lord! "
After taking a deep breath, Elder Xiao looked at Hu Tianren and continued speaking.
His tone was solemn and his eyes flickered with a hint of sharpness.
"Turn back? Do you think that's possible? "
Ignoring the shocked gazes of the surrounding people, Hu Tianren looked at Elder Xiao quietly. The two of them were in a stalemate.
Turn back?
That was no longer possible!
"Do you have the confidence to kill me? Do you have the confidence to kill everyone here? "
Elder Xiao asked coldly as he looked at Hu Tianren's attitude.
"What do you think?"
Hu Tianren smiled faintly.
"Alright, there's no need to continue acting. Just tell him! "
Hu Tianren said to the people around him.
"Follow Elder Hu and follow the footsteps of glory!"
Just as Hu Tianren finished his sentence, Elder Xiao sneered and a chorus of voices was heard.
Whoosh …
Following which, the smile on Elder Xiao's face gradually disappeared as he widened his eyes.
"How … How is this possible … You guys … How …"
Elder Xiao fiercely swallowed a mouthful of saliva as if he had seen something unbelievable. A panicked expression appeared on his face.
How was this possible?
Because at this moment, Elder Xiao was shocked to see that out of the dozen or so Dragon Slaying Pavilion members who had come to Hong City, two-thirds of them were by Hu Tianren's side.
There were about 50 people who had come to Hong City. Other than Hu Tianren and Elder Xiao, there were 16 people from Dragon Slayer Pavilion. Two-thirds of the people from Dragon Slayer Pavilion … That was a total of 11 people!
Not only that, but among the remaining thirty or so martial artists who had been recruited, there were actually ten people who had expressed their stand at this moment!
In other words … there were 19 people standing beside Hu Tianren.
There were nineteen of them. Including Hu Tianren, there were twenty of them.
This was almost half of the people who had come to Hong City! Elder Xiao couldn't believe his eyes, especially when the people from Dragon Slayer Pavilion expressed their stance.
How could these people …
Elder Hu, how did he do it?
Elder Xiao's pupils shrank abruptly.
"Now, do I have the right to say this? Do I have the right to kill you? "
Hu Tianren asked with a smile that did not seem like a smile as he looked at the shocked Elder Xiao.
"Why!"
Elder Xiao asked, unwilling to give up.
This was the biggest doubt.
Why!
Why did Mou Tianxiang and the other disciples betray Dragon Slayer Pavilion, and now Hu Tianren and the 11 people from Dragon Slayer Pavilion did the same!
What did they want?
Whether it was Mou Tianxiang or Hu Tianren, they were both elders of Dragon Slayer Pavilion. Their statuses were extremely high. What did they get from the Wang family? Why did they betray Dragon Slayer Pavilion? This was the biggest doubt.
Elder Xiao couldn't accept failure without knowing the reason.
"Why? Because … We have beliefs, we have pursuits, and we want glory. But the current Dragon Slayer Pavilion has changed! "
Hu Tianren said unhurriedly.
"Hahaha …"
Hearing Hu Tianren's words, Elder Xiao laughed crazily. "Childish! Childish thinking! Hmph! You bunch of idiots! Elder Hu, I'm surprised. I'm really surprised! When Lord said that there was someone else who betrayed Dragon Slayer Pavilion other than Mou Tianxiang, I didn't want to believe it. Is the position of an elder of Dragon Slayer Pavilion inferior to what the Wang family gave you? So, even if Lord said it, I just felt that it was an exaggeration. Even if there are people who betrayed Dragon Slayer Pavilion under Mou Tianxiang, they are just some ignorant juniors. Since Elder Mou Tianxiang has been eliminated, there is nothing to worry about! Even if Elder Gong asked me to pay attention to you, I don't believe that you betrayed Dragon Slayer Pavilion!
But now, you're really disappointing. Elder Hu, you actually betrayed Dragon Slayer Pavilion for your childish dreams and beliefs? Isn't this the biggest joke in the world?
Glory? Dragon Slayer Pavilion can give you all the glory. Dreams? We are walking on the path of dreams. How great is Dragon Slayer Pavilion's plan? Now you are telling me that you want to follow the Wang family to pursue your dreams and glory? If this isn't a joke, what is?
Beliefs? Our beliefs are Dragon Slayer Pavilion and ourselves! "
Hu Tianren's words made Elder Xiao so angry that he laughed.
Suddenly, the worried expression on his face disappeared without a trace. Then, he looked at Hu Tianren and the people around him with a smile that didn't seem like a smile. "I just didn't expect that your plan would be even crazier than I imagined! Luckily, Lord Xiao had foresight. Otherwise, we would really be at a disadvantage this time!
You should be the last one, right? There shouldn't be many people as stupid as you and Elder Mou.
Elder Hu, do you really think that everything is under your control? Do you really think that your plan can succeed today? Do you think that you can kill us? You are not enough! "
Elder Xiao's aura burst forth and suddenly became strong.
He stared at Elder Hu and the people around him with a murderous look.
"Oh? Elder Hu is not enough? These people are not enough? What if you add me, add us? "
However, just as Elder Xiao was laughing coldly, a cold snort was heard.
Crack crack crack …
Then, a series of dull sounds were heard.
Unknowingly, the tightly shut gates of Hong City slowly opened with the dull sound.
A figure walked out of the city.
Gradually, his appearance became clearer.
Looking at Elder Xiao and the others present, this figure spoke unhurriedly.
