"Where the hell are you leading us? It's already been three days, and we're still here. Why do I feel like you're going in circles? "The tall and strong leader looked at the grey-robed man in front of him with his scarlet eyes.
"Don't be offended. To ensure our safety, we have to do this. When the time comes, the elders will personally apologize to you. We'll be there in half a day," the grey-robed man said calmly, as if he didn't hear the threat.
"It's good that you know. The dignity of the Shura Clan cannot be trampled on." The leader snorted and signaled to the other two beside him, but they shook their heads.
This made the leader irritated. How could he not know that he was actually walking through a special tunnel?
There was a layer of transparent space tunnel around him. It looked no different from the surrounding scenery, but if he took a wrong step, he wouldn't know where he'd be sent to.
It was a pity that the three of them didn't know. Although he was strong and brave, he still had to be on guard.
The leader suddenly thought of his subordinate. He was proficient in this, but unfortunately, he died together with the other person. This was also why they came here to investigate what happened.
The time of death of the two people was basically too close. He led the rest of the people here and when they finally died, they only found that the other party had sent a human cultivator to kill one of them. The other person's death seemed to have disappeared into thin air and didn't exist in this world at all.
And when they were about to leave, a grey-robed man suddenly appeared in front of them and told them that he knew who killed their people.
And now, they were following the Demon Race.
"Please follow us. We've arrived." The grey-robed man turned around and said to them.
They had unknowingly approached the mountain range. At this moment, there was only a wall full of vines in front of them.
However, after the grey-robed man finished speaking, he didn't look at them. Instead, he continued to walk towards the wall in front of him. The moment he touched it, a layer of invisible ripples appeared around him. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared in front of everyone.
"Sir, what should I do?" The person behind him asked in a deep voice.
"Let's go in. I want to see what kind of tricks this broken demon has up its sleeves." The Shura people were confident in their strength and were not afraid of them at all. If they did not say that they knew who killed them, they would have flipped the cards.
The three of them walked into the wall one by one. Their vision blurred, and they found themselves in an unfamiliar environment. They were deep in a very spacious stone hall. The leader's pupils shrank because there were actually two simple teleportation formations on both sides. He didn't know where they led.
To think that such a huge amount of resources would appear here. It seemed that the remaining demons here still had some strength.
In fact, they already knew about this Goblin, but they minded their own business and did not interact with each other. Hence, they did not want to interact with them at all.
However, at this moment, a masked man in a blood-red robe appeared in front of them. The gray-robed man from before was nowhere to be seen.
"Welcome, friend Asura. Welcome to our last remaining place. I am the Great Elder of this place," the blood-robed man said with a smile.
Sensing the tyrannical strength of the other party, he even vaguely felt that the other party was stronger than him. However, the leader still said coldly, not putting down his pride just because this was his territory.
"You didn't bring us here because you want to treat us to a meal, right? We still have important things to do. "
"Friend Asura, you must be joking. Please come in. Of course, I know what you mean. No matter what, let's sit down first. This is not how we treat our guests," the Great Elder said.
"Hmph, I hope your information is useful. You should know that our Asura Army can come at any time," the leader snorted coldly, but he continued to follow the other party inside.
However, the other party did not walk for long. In less than ten minutes, the two of them once again arrived at a much more exquisite stone hall. There were rows of exquisite tables and chairs on both sides. If it weren't for the cold stone walls around them, they would have thought that they were in a rich family's house.
"Alright, you can speak now." The leader did not turn on the light. The other party invited him to sit down and casually sat at the side. Meanwhile, his two subordinates were vigilant of the surroundings.
Although they were confident that the other party would not dare to provoke them, they would not let down their guard.
"Is the person you are looking for?" The Great Elder did not waste any time. He directly threw a crystal from his hand. The crystal was imprinted with the scene of two people fighting.
Seeing the two figures inside, the leader's breathing quickened, and a faint murderous intent appeared in his eyes.
This was because in this short period of time, Gu Zheng had killed the first Asura. Although it was a little blurry, the leader could still recognize who had killed them at a glance.
It was the person they were looking for. It seemed that his guess was right. The two of them had been killed by the other party. Didn't he say not to look for the other party alone?
The Great Elder looked at the other party in anger and smiled without saying a word.
One had to know that this was the Goblin's headquarters. Their people had been monitoring the surroundings for a long time. In fact, they knew that Gu Zheng had appeared inside. However, before they could come over, Gu Zheng had left. They had no choice but to lay low and hide again.
This was because if they could not kill the other party immediately, they would alert the special person who was patrolling the area. It was the patrolling officer who was attracted by the battle between Gu Zheng and Young Master Qi.
"Thank you for your guidance, Great Elder. We were just about to look for him. Since you know him, please tell us where he is. We, Asura, will definitely be grateful." Perhaps because he had a request, the leader's words were not as forceful as before.
"Don't be anxious. If you go like this, I am sure that the three of you will not return. The other party will not die. Instead, you will lose your lives." The Great Elder said calmly.
"Hmph, how is that possible? According to the information we received, the other party's strength is only so-so. However, he might be relying on some special treasure. Although it seems that he has improved, under the joint attack of the three of us, the other party will die." The leader said disdainfully. He did not believe the other party's words at all.
"As long as Great Elder can tell us the exact location of that person, we will definitely repay you. That person is someone who has been ordered to be killed by a big shot."
The leader stood up and said to the Great Elder. He could not wait to get his hands on this. Daring to offend the Shura people again and again, he did not know the immensity of heaven and earth.
"I know how you feel. However, we have confirmed that the other party is not alone. Listen to me first. If you still want to go after hearing what I have to say, I will immediately send you off." The Great Elder gestured for the leader to sit down.
"How is that possible? We have been tracking the other party for such a long time. How could we not find him? " Although he was confident that the information was not wrong and that everything was found out by his subordinates, the leader could not help but say when he saw the other party's confident expression.
This was because two of his subordinates had died in such a short period of time. They did not even manage to escape. This made him a little suspicious. After all, which one of his team members was not special? Even if they could not defeat the other party, it was not impossible that they could not escape.
"Let's not talk about how many people you have lost. Let me put it this way. We have already lost five Goblin here. All of them were killed by the other party. Among them, there were two who were weaker than me. In addition, there was another person whose strength was not lower than Jin Xian's middle stage. None of them managed to escape. Do you think that they were too weak and did not even have a chance to escape?"
The Great Elder slapped his palm hard and said with a gloomy face.
"After careful investigation, we found that there was someone else behind the other party. They were protecting him at all times, causing us to suffer heavy losses outside."
"Is that really the case?" Looking at the Great Elder's serious face, the leader who was in disbelief was a little shaken.
"These are the Soul Beads that they left behind. You will know soon." The Great Elder clapped his hands. Soon, a transformed Little Goblin had a plate with five cracked Soul Beads on it.
The Soul Beads were a Goblin's method of determining whether one of their own was still alive.
The leader and the rest felt the aura from the Soul Beads. Every one of them was as strong as the Great Elder had said. Moreover, they had all died recently. The one who had been alive for the longest time was not more than a year.
This time, he believed most of it. Anyone would be heartbroken to lose so many people in such a short period of time.
"Are we just going to let him get away with it? If I go back and call for reinforcements, I'm afraid it'll be too late. " The leader said angrily. If the other party really had other people hiding around to protect them, then he would not gamble with the lives of his brothers.
"Of course there is a way. Have you heard of the Great Snow Mountain here?" The Great Elder had been waiting for him to say this. He waved his hand and dismissed the Little Goblin with a confident expression.
"I know a little." At this time, the leader's heart skipped a beat. He remembered the purpose of the other party's invitation and could not help but ask, "Do you have a good idea?"
"Of course, we have a very important hostage. Moreover, we have already infiltrated the Great Snow Mountain. Now, the Great Snow Mountain's Clan Leader has returned, but he is seriously injured. We can totally seize the Great Snow Mountain and use the hostage as a hostage. Then, we can use the Great Snow Mountain's enchantment to prevent the other party from escaping. This way, even if the other party wants to save him, it will be too late if we attack together."
The Great Elder quickly and briefly explained their plan. This was also something that he had decided on. He had only pulled them over to make up for their lack of combat power.
He was not afraid that the other party would know their plan at all because the other party would not ask them about it.
Who would have thought that he had repeatedly warned the silver-masked man not to look for the other party alone? Unfortunately, the silver-masked man did not listen to him and eventually fell in his hands. The silver-masked man was the only one he could rely on outside. Basically, all the small details were taken care of by the silver-masked man. He had perfect control of everything.
But now was not the time to feel sorry for him. The most important thing was to warn the Shura people not to meddle in the affairs of Feng City. If the Shura people found that person and fought with him, the Shura people would not care about the plans of the demon race. They would definitely alarm the people here and conduct a large-scale investigation.
At this juncture, if they were alarmed, it would mean that their plan had completely failed. If they were found to be causing trouble behind the scenes, perhaps their hiding place would be found by the other party.
Because in these years, the strength of the human race had been growing day by day, while the Shura people had almost stagnated and even regressed.
Therefore, the human race was too lazy to look for them. Anyway, as long as they obediently hid, the Shura people would not bother to look for them.
"Well, when do we act?" After weighing the pros and cons, the leader finally agreed to the plan. As long as they could kill the other party, they could complete the task given to them by the higher-ups.
Otherwise, if they lost two people and failed to complete the task, they did not know how the higher-ups would look at them.
"Don't worry about this. We can't attract the attention of the guardians here, but even if we delay, it will be solved within half a year. Don't be impatient." The Great Elder said in a deep voice.
"In the meantime, how about you stay here? If you want to go out, you can go out through the transmission array, but it will still be troublesome to come back. "
"No, it's only a short time. We'll just stay here. If you need us, just let me know. I just need to kill him." The Shura leader did not hesitate at all. Half a year had passed in the blink of an eye. Now, they were only left with this task. Even if they went out, they would have nothing to do.
Anyway, they were not afraid of being used. As long as they killed this man, they would complete the task and avenge their brothers.
"That's great. I believe that if our two families work together, we can definitely kill him." The Great Elder stood up and said with a happy face.
.....
On the other side, Gu Zheng was on his way to the living room. He had been thinking about a problem for the past few days, and that was, where was Bei Chen?
Because Zhao Man did not know how careful Bei Chen was, he did not know where Bei Chen was.
However, Bei Chen's aura was still in this city. He could still feel his aura everywhere. Moreover, because he had Zhao Man's aura on him, he thought that the two of them were together. But now, it seemed that Bei Chen was very likely captured and imprisoned somewhere.
Of course, it could be that silver-masked man. After all, he was the only one in this city who could completely subdue him in an instant. However, he had been trying to sense his location for a few days, but there was always a mysterious force blocking him, so he could not spy on Bei Chen's location.
If it wasn't for the fact that the person in the sky was in a worse situation, he would not even have the power to spy on him.
Under such circumstances, he had completely lost contact with the restriction in the other party's body. In theory, it was out of his control. However, he could vaguely sense the other party's condition. It seemed to be in a bad situation. It was not that the other party had betrayed him, but it seemed to be suppressed.
In any case, Gu Zheng could not find the other party for the time being. He could only wait for an opportunity to find the other party.
"We're here, Young Master Gu. Master is waiting for you inside." Unknowingly, the two of them had passed through the courtyard. Xu Wei's words interrupted Gu Zheng's thoughts.
Gu Zheng came back to his senses and stopped thinking about this problem. He walked over to see what Xu Jing wanted him to do this time. Obviously, he had something to ask of him. If possible, he wanted to help the other party. Helping them was helping himself.
Walking into the living room, Xu Jing was alone in the room. There were a few people around the same age. They should be the Patriarchs of the other families.
"Young Master Gu, you're finally here. I wanted to look for you a few days ago, but some special things happened, so I was delayed." Xu Jing hurriedly said to Gu Zheng with a smile.
However, at this time, his situation was not very good. His eye sockets were sunken, his face was sallow, and his body was a little shaky. It seemed that he had not rested for a few days. The others were in a similar state.
"What's going on? I see that you have been in here for the past few days. You don't seem to have gone out. Could it be that something new has happened outside? "Gu Zheng asked doubtfully.
"Let me introduce everyone. This is the Young Master Gu that I mentioned before." Xu Jing didn't answer Gu Zheng's question. Instead, he spoke to the surrounding people.
"Young Master Gu is really young and promising!"
"Yes, Gu Zheng seems to be a hero among us. His future is immeasurable."
These people looked at Gu Zheng with fanatical eyes and complimented him casually.
"What's going on? What happened? " Gu Zheng looked at the other party and knew that Xu Jing had exposed his identity. Otherwise, the other party would not have done this.
"It's like this, Young Master Gu." Xu Jing smiled bitterly and then briefly explained the problem he had encountered. Gu Zheng quickly understood the whole story.
Now there was an opportunity in front of them. His Majesty was not ill before, so now they could ask everyone to help him treat his illness. If they could wake him up this time, then the Ye family's conspiracy would definitely be delayed, and for them, they would have more time to deal with the Ye family.
Because as long as there was no chaos inside, they would not be afraid even if there was an army outside. The defense of Feng City could not be broken in a short time. Besides, there were people outside.
They discussed for a few days and finally came up with a plan. No matter what, each of them would invite the Divine Doctor and the Immortal Cultivator that they could invite. Because they suspected that the Ye family was behind the Emperor's illness, but unfortunately, they had no evidence.
Of course, because the Ye family limited the number of people who could go this time, it gave them a headache because they were afraid that the other party would catch them all in one net. This time, they decided to send some people to go in, and the rest would be vigilant outside. Once the Ye family showed any suspicion of rebellion, they would immediately inform each family and lead their own family to rescue the Emperor.
However, it was too dangerous for people to go in. Then Xu Jing revealed Gu Zheng's identity and invited him to accompany them to the palace. The most important thing was to protect them and see if the Emperor's illness could be cured.
Of course, he also said that there must be immortals in the Ye family, so the danger was very high. He did not know whether Gu Zheng would agree or not, but Xu Jing did not hide anything and told him everything.
After listening, Gu Zheng did not immediately answer. Instead, he sat aside and fell into deep thought. His fingers were constantly tapping on the table.
"Deng Deng Deng"
The people next to him listened with uneasy hearts. They did not know whether Gu Zheng would agree or not.
If Gu Zheng did not agree, even if they would not force him, even if they might all die inside, they would still try.
Suddenly, the sound in the air suddenly disappeared.
"I promise you, when is the time?"
