Everyone in the courtyard was in an anxious mood.
When Gu Zheng arrived, everyone turned to look at him.
"What's wrong? Are there any injuries? "
Gu Zheng gestured for them to calm down. Thinking about it, there wasn't much panic outside.
"No, we're fine. Some of the injured brothers even ate soul stones and will recover soon. It's the Sighing Plains!" Xiao An immediately said. He wanted to explain, but he didn't know where to start.
"Let me do it. The other party's Monster Soul got the news that Lord Huang and the others might be in danger at the front line." Xiao Qing walked up and said briefly.
"How is that possible? They aren't weak. How could they be in danger? "
Gu Zheng naturally knew how strong they were. Even if it was a decisive battle, they were still very confident.
"I don't know either. But I got the exact news from inside. After they succeeded, Lord Huang couldn't come out to cause trouble. Since they're already on the move, wouldn't it be dangerous ahead?" Xiao An added.
This was the only clue they got after killing all the Monster Souls. Because it left a deep impression on them, they couldn't find any other useful information.
"That might not be the case. Wait for me, I'll go up and ask." Gu Zheng said subconsciously. But thinking that the Monster Souls had already set off, it might not be the case. He would definitely go and ask.
"Then what should we do?"
Gu Zheng thought for a moment and ordered, "Gather all of us together. Call back those patrolling outside and wait for us to set off at any time."
"Yes!"
Gu Zheng hurriedly left this place and rushed towards the eastern part of the city.
He wasn't going to the place where he first entered. Instead, there was a hidden palace behind. That place wasn't open to the outside world. Or rather, most people outside didn't know of its existence. It was usually hidden. Even if ordinary people passed by, they wouldn't be able to see it.
This was the place where Su Feijie and the others usually worked. All the decisions in Guan City were made from here.
Under normal circumstances, the few of them were enough. Huang Wei and the others were in charge of the overall situation. They usually didn't interfere with the subordinates. They would only give orders for important matters.
Gu Zheng strode in from outside, causing the two people who were working inside to raise their heads.
"Has it been resolved?"
The one who spoke was a very thin and weak young man. His eyes were bright and full of expression, and he looked very shrewd.
"Those troublesome Demon Souls have been completely annihilated." Gu Zheng nodded and said.
At this moment, he did not doubt the two of them. Since they had seized this opportunity, it was likely that other than a few people who had betrayed this place, they had already made their move.
"Where is Su Feijie? Isn't he with you? And Cang Yan, he said he had something to tell you, why hasn't he come back yet? " Another white-haired old man, who looked even older than Su Feijie, lazily said to Gu Zheng. His spirit was dispirited, and he seemed to be in low spirits.
Gu Zheng knew that if the other party spoke like this, it would not be long before he reached the end of his lifespan. However, this might be a good thing. If he was left here, he could choose his previous appearance and would not have to worry about some personal problems.
"Elder Yong, I'm afraid that the two of them will never come back, because the Demon Soul has long been hidden in their bodies. This time, it was also them who instigated behind the scenes. I was almost tricked by them." Gu Zheng said seriously.
"How is that possible!"
Hearing those words, Old Man Yong immediately stood up from his comfortable chair. His eyes also emitted a judgmental gaze as he looked at Gu Zheng.
"I know you don't believe me, but take a look at this."
Gu Zheng looked at the two of them and saw that they did not believe him at all. He then took out the things he had prepared.
Originally, he had prepared them to prevent any accidents, but now, they had become proof of his identity.
If he wanted to contact the people in front and use the teleportation formation here to go to the Sighing Plains, he would need their permission.
Gu Zheng waved his hand and a water screen appeared in the air, covering more than half of the sky. Everything on it could be seen clearly.
"Then I'll have to trouble you."
On the screen, it was the scene of Su Feijie and Su Feijie leaving. From the background, one could see the two of them.
Old Man Yong and Old Man Yong stared at the screen intently. From the beginning of the conversation to the tentacles quickly killing those Goblin Souls, and then to the appearance of Cang Yan, the other party's undisguised motive was to destroy the lone peak.
"How is this possible?"
"So it was him!"
The two of them exclaimed in a low voice and held their breaths as they continued watching.
After a fight, Cang Yan was captured, and when Su Feijie ambushed Gu Zheng, they subconsciously glanced at Gu Zheng, as if he was already dead, then turned their gazes back to the screen.
Soon, when Su Feijie revealed her original appearance, her actions, and her death in the end, the screen disappeared.
"I'm sorry, I misunderstood you." Elder Yong immediately apologized to Gu Zheng.
Although the two of them had low cultivation, they could still distinguish between what was real and what was fake. Furthermore, they had already reported the situation outside, so they understood that they had misunderstood Gu Zheng.
"When did they sneak in? After knowing each other for so long, they didn't know that the other party had already been replaced. Fortunately, young master Gu acted and saved our solitary city from danger. I thank you on behalf of everyone."
The skinny young man also solemnly bowed to Gu Zheng.
"It's what I should do, but now isn't the time to talk about that." Gu Zheng quickly jumped away and said.
"Why is there something else?" Elder Yong asked.
"Of course, I need to borrow the teleportation formation. There's danger at the frontlines. Although it might not be accurate, now that our greatest danger is gone, I want to go and take a look. "
Gu Zheng quickly recounted the whole story to him.
The two of them became even more cautious. Elder Yong then spoke.
"I understand what you mean. I'm not worried about the lord and the others, but if they lose too many people, I can't do that either. I'll activate the formation for you."
"Take the backup forces with you. You have too few people." The skinny young man also spoke at the same time.
"But if that's the case, Guan City's forces will be very weak. If something happens again, we won't have any forces here!" Elder Yong said in surprise.
"Since the other party has already been wiped out, even if there are some survivors, there can't be too many. The forces we have left outside are enough to suppress them. The lord's matter is more important." The skinny young man said with certainty, then turned to Gu Zheng.
"We'll activate the formation first. Take the order and go to the back. There's always a group of soldiers ready for battle. It's meant to be a mobile unit."
Gu Zheng nodded and took the token from the skinny young man. After asking the skinny young man's location, he asked the skinny young man to inform the patrol team and then walked out.
The location was not far behind and was close to the north side of the city.
In a similarly large courtyard, there were no less than five hundred people inside. They were all wearing clothes hangers and standing quietly in the open space.
There were so many people, but there was not the slightest sound. They stood quietly like statues.
Even if one passed by outside and did not come in, one would think that there was no one here.
"Bang!"
Gu Zheng directly rushed in from outside. When he saw the five hundred people in front of him looking at him, he praised them in his heart. They were really elite soldiers. However, he did not talk nonsense and directly flashed his token and ordered.
"Wang Cheng, lead your team and follow me!"
"Yes, lord!"
In front of the team, there was a tall man. After seeing that the token was correct and hearing Gu Zheng's order, he immediately replied loudly.
"Let's go!"
The five of them moved in unison, but their movements were very light. They followed Gu Zheng and hurriedly left this place.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry. Once we're there, you have to rush to the Sighing Plains as quickly as possible," Gu Zheng said to them along the way.
"We'll definitely rush over as quickly as possible!" Wang Cheng firmly said.
They couldn't teleport directly to that place. At full speed, it would take at least two hours.
Soon, he led a group of people to the edge of the hidden teleportation formation. The patrol team was already waiting there.
"We can leave at any time."
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's leave in groups of ten. "
Gu Zheng, Shen An, and a few others stood on the teleportation formation and quickly disappeared. Behind them, people walked up and began to teleport.
In truth, this was just a convenient teleportation. If it was an ordinary person, they would have to spend a lot of time walking.
"Gather everyone together and come over. I'll go over there first."
After arriving at an unfamiliar place, Gu Zheng ordered Xiao An and the others.
"Okay!"
They could feel Gu Zheng's urgency and immediately replied.
Gu Zheng nodded and no longer looked back. Instead, he soared into the sky and flew towards the Sighing Plains.
Even though he didn't know the exact location, he could clearly feel the towering killing intent coming from there. It was very eye-catching. Even though they were so far away, he could clearly feel it. There was no need to worry about not knowing the exact location.
After a few hours of fierce fighting on the Sighing Plains, the battle had reached its climax.
At this time, Guan City had lost nearly ten thousand people, forever losing their lives. On the other hand, the number of Monster Souls had decreased by half, which was six times more than Guan City's.
However, Guan City's side had expended too much. Even with the replenishment of soul stones, the continuous fighting had made each of them abnormally tired. This was the greatest exhaustion for them and the Monster Souls.
Even if they were neither human nor ghost, they still felt tired.
Relying on their large numbers and tireless bodies, the Demonic Souls continued to rush over like a flood.
At this time, their defensive circle had shrunk. The entire circle outside was full of Monster Souls, surrounding them. If one died, two more would come. They were constantly fighting.
"Kill!"
"Advance, no retreat!"
Shouts continued to rise in the air.
"Advance, no retreat!"
Tie Tou also let out a loud roar and swept out with his blade, clearing the area in front of him once again. Although it only took a breath for the surrounding Monster Souls to rush over again, it also gave the people beside him a chance to catch their breath.
This bit of time was enough for them to swallow soul stones or recharge their weapons.
At this time, it was impossible to advance. It was just a slogan to motivate them.
Tie Tou felt the respectful gazes from the side. He didn't have time to talk to the other party. He took out his recharged weapon and left the one in his hand to the back. Naturally, someone would recharge it for him.
Even at this time, his body was surging with unlimited power. He didn't feel tired at all. He could guard the Monster Souls beside him. However, other than killing as many enemies as possible, he couldn't think of anything else.
In fact, the people around him had consciously moved closer to him, which made him feel more and more pressure. However, he didn't say anything. The armor on his body had helped him block too many attacks. Other than his head, he didn't care about anything else. They couldn't break through his defense.
Otherwise, with his bold and unrestrained fighting style, he would have long since been drowned by his enemies.
As for the armor, it seemed to have a life of its own. A portion of the Monster Souls that were killed would be absorbed by the armor. Even if it wasn't much, the amount was enough to make up for everything. It was practically a treasure on the battlefield. After killing his enemies, it would provide him with an endless supply of energy. He didn't need to swallow soul stones to replenish his energy.
His constant killing had already become a legend to everyone. Furthermore, word of him constantly spread. Everyone knew that there was one person who was like an unrivaled existence. He was firmly guarding the defensive line, greatly encouraging everyone.
A new batch of enemies had already appeared. Tie Tou extended his weapon and directly chopped the Demon Souls in front of him into pieces. Just as he withdrew his saber, a purple-clothed Assassin suddenly appeared beside him. With a leap, a sharp blade appeared in his hand and directly pierced towards Tie Tou's unprotected head.
A Corpse to the side charged forward and wretchedly threw itself on the ground. Its hands tightly wrapped around Tie Tou's legs, making it so he couldn't move.
"Careful!"
The person behind Tie Tou immediately let out a startled cry and charged forward, wanting to stop him. But he was too slow. While he was still in the air, the assassin had already closed in on Tie Tou. It looked like his sneak attack was about to succeed.
"Scram!"
Ironhead was extremely calm at this moment. He had originally retracted his arm, but he took the opportunity to swing it at the Assassin who was sneaking up on him. However, this speed was still a bit lacking. The Assassin would definitely be able to hit his head before he could swing it at the Assassin.
While the people beside him were worried, the assassin was still thinking that no matter how Tie Tou dodged, he would be able to accurately stab his weapon into his head and kill him.
At this moment, Tie Tou's body suddenly moved. He actually jumped on the spot. Even with the strong pressure from the corpse, he still flew up a lot.
Where his head should have been was now his shoulder. The Monster Souls knew that Tie Tou's armor's defensive power was outstanding. They couldn't pierce through it. They raised their hands and continued to attack.
BANG!
Tie Tou's body slanted slightly, and his shoulder collided with the assassin's arm. Although he wasn't able to send the assassin flying, he was able to make the assassin's movement deviate slightly. By the time the assassin recovered, it was already too late.
Tie Tou used his elbow to strike the assassin's chest. That huge force caused the assassin's body to freeze in the air. Then a black light flashed, and the assassin's body directly exploded.
"Mighty!"
The people beside him couldn't help shouting excitedly when they saw this scene.
"When killing enemies, advance, never retreat!"
Tie Tou landed on the Corpse. Naturally, the people beside him killed the assassin and shouted loudly.
"When killing enemies, advance, never retreat!"
"When killing enemies, advance, never retreat!"
Those shouts continued to grow louder and louder. Countless people crazily shouted their slogans as they continued to charge.
"That fellow!"
Ying Xi could almost see Tie Tou's figure wreaking havoc. Countless enemies died under his hands. Ying Xi laughed lightly.
"Captain Ying, another group of specters has appeared in the northwest."
At this moment, a person hastily ran over from the distance and shouted at Ying Xi.
"Wait for me, come with me!"
Ying Xi's smile disappeared as she shouted to the side and rushed in the direction that person had pointed.
The 20 or so powerful Goblin behind her also followed, looking at Ying Xi with eyes filled with admiration.
Here, with Ying Xi behind them, even if the defense circle gradually shrank, the losses were very small. Once there was danger, Ying Xi would always appear in time to help them disperse the enemy's assembly and remove the threat.
She was on the same level as Tie Tou, and she was even more famous than Tie Tou because Tie Tou could only clear such a large area. He was like a qualified warrior who would fight to the death without retreating.
However, Ying Xi was an agile Sorcerer. After Gu Zheng gave her her own weapon, a brilliant silver-white dress, she didn't feel tired and did her best to kill specters.
"Captain Ying is here!"
In the northwest, a player saw Ying Xi's figure and couldn't help but shout excitedly.
The morale of the people beside her was greatly boosted. The originally dangerous place was instantly indestructible, and they were even able to counterattack. For a time, the area in front of them became empty, revealing the sneaky specters behind them.
After they dispersed, because there were too few of them, and because they were afraid of being killed by the same trick, they simply gathered together and launched sneak attacks from behind.
Most of these specters were concentrated on Ying Xi's side. After all, compared to Tie Tou, who was covered in heavy armor, their attacks might not be able to break through. However, they were all wearing black robes, and their defensive power naturally couldn't be compared to the front. Although their attacks were fiercer, they could still achieve great results by launching sneak attacks.
Most of the people here were killed by these specters' sneak attacks.
They specifically looked at your weakness or when you were distracted, and several of them would launch sneak attacks at you, making it impossible for you to block and directly killed by the enemy's sneak attack.
Moreover, once the enemy was exposed, they wouldn't fight you head-on at all. Instead, they would change their location and continue to ambush you. It was simply impossible to guard against them. However, they didn't have a good solution. If they chased after them, once they left the defensive circle, they would probably be quickly overwhelmed by the enemy.
"All of you, step aside." Ying Xi shouted before she even arrived.
Without needing her to say anything, the people in front of her automatically moved back, giving her enough space to display her skills.
Ying Xi flew directly into the air, looking at the endless Goblin Souls in front of her. There wasn't the slightest fluctuation in her eyes. Her eyes were already fixed on the specters that had sneaked into the Goblin Souls, and her figure danced in the air.
Countless blue sparkling snowflakes appeared around her out of thin air. She was like a queen of ice and snow. Once again, she waved her hand, and a gentle breeze blew. Those snowflakes turned into sharp weapons, and like a blizzard, they rushed towards the enemies in front of her.
No matter what Goblin Soul was in the middle, when the blizzard passed by, they were all crushed into a lump of powder.
In the blink of an eye, a large empty space appeared in front of her. Even though the Goblin Souls in the distance were desperately trying to fill it up, it still took a few breaths to fill it up.
Similarly, the specters hidden inside were also not spared.
"Kill the enemy! Only advance, no retreat! "
The shouts from the distance also reached here. The people next to them also shouted, and everyone once again rushed towards the enemy with their blood boiling.
