"Shua!"
Gu Zheng looked at Zhu Hun, who had lost control of his body. He immediately raised the Desolate Cloud Sword in his hand and carefully chopped down. Zhu Hun could only watch helplessly without being able to do anything. He could only wait for his death.
A trace of fear finally appeared in Zhu Hun's eyes, but he really couldn't do anything to Gu Zheng. After desperately leaving a few wounds on his body, he was still careless and allowed Gu Zheng to find his weakness, resulting in his current situation.
Just when he was about to sit here and wait for death, he suddenly felt a blur in front of his eyes. When he reacted, he found that he had already arrived at the back and Wen Tianhou was standing next to him.
"Heavenly King …"
Wen Tianhou raised his arm to stop Zhu Hun's next words. He quietly looked in front of him as if he was admiring the sunset. After a dozen breaths of time, Wen Tianhou opened his mouth.
"Your opponent is not him. Go and kill the Asura Clan. I naturally have someone to deal with him."
Zhu Hun immediately nodded and flew over.
Following behind him were Wen Tianhou's personal guards. Without any worries, Wen Tianhou was ready to end this farce.
Even with Bai Jiajia's help, it only slightly relieved the pressure on this side. However, with the strength of these two people, at least they wouldn't die if they were careless like before. However, seeing the arrival of the other side's personal guards, some people began to despair. They even began to look left and right as if looking for an opportunity to escape.
These people were basically the subordinates of the City Lords. City Lord Liu and Elder Jin were still unmoved and were prepared to fight to the death. No matter how strong the other side was, they wouldn't let the other side kill them.
"You actually have the courage to stand in front of me. I admire this, but it's a pity." Wen Tianhou looked at Gu Zheng in the distance and shook his head.
Previously, Gu Zheng's eyes had been fixed on Xiao Ying. Her eyes were lifeless, like an emotionless puppet. That familiar figure was an empty shell, which made his heart ache. When he heard Wen Tianhou's words, he turned his head to look at him. The anger in his eyes seemed to be about to spurt out, and the veins on his arms bulged. He wished he could kill Wen Tianhou on the spot.
"No need to feel pity. Today is your end." Gu Zheng suppressed the anger in his heart and said to Wen Tianhou word by word.
"You? Although I want to kill you immediately, I am more willing to do some things first. Let me appreciate the friendship between master and servant and see if it is as deep as you show. "Wen Tianhou faintly smiled. He didn't mind Gu Zheng's threat and instead spoke.
"Little Ying, kill this enemy in front of you."
Wen Tianhou's figure retreated slightly as he spoke to Xiao Ying. It seemed as if he was watching a show.
Xiao Ying lowered her head slightly and took a step forward. With a clench of her hand, a green lantern slowly appeared in her hand. The green flames of the netherworld began to burn once again.
"If you really feel sorry for her, you can completely not resist and let her kill you." Wen Tianhou carefully added as he watched Gu Zheng play.
Without waiting for Gu Zheng to speak, he raised the lantern in his hand, and the green flame inside suddenly rose. Then, around the lantern, green flames sprang out. A gust of wind came out of nowhere and turned into a towering flame that attacked Gu Zheng. The flame was monstrous, and his figure was drowned in it.
"I'm sorry!"
A figure covered in green flames walked out of the flame wave. Layers of golden light flashed on the surface of his body. Every time a layer appeared, the green flames on the surface of his body would be reduced by a layer. Very quickly, his body returned to normal. The green flames on the side wanted to press down on him, but they found that there was an invisible force surrounding him. They couldn't get close and could only burn fiercely outside.
Clang!
The weapon in Gu Zheng's hand trembled. After breaking through the green flames in front of him, several circular golden lights rushed towards Xiao Ying. Each attack was aimed to kill. Clearly, he had treated her as a real enemy.
"Tsk tsk, truly ruthless." Wen Tianhou clicked his tongue and sighed. As he spoke, he shook his head with a regretful expression. He didn't even care about the loss of his subordinates.
After all, the people below had already switched from offense to defense. They could hold on for a long time. He was far less interested than the good show in front of him.
Facing Gu Zheng's murderous intent, Xiao Ying didn't panic. She stepped in the air and dodged his attack like a gust of wind. At the same time, she held the lantern tightly and waved it at Gu Zheng. Green wind blades suddenly appeared in the air. Each wind blade was as thin as a cicada's wing and emitted a sharp cold aura. They danced in the air without any pattern and flew towards Gu Zheng.
Ding Ding Dang Dang!
Gu Zheng's eyes were fixed in front of him. The weapon in his hand left afterimages in front of him. Under the flickering of the golden and green light, the wind blades were destroyed in the air.
"Young Master Gu, can you really bear to hurt me?" Xiao Ying's complexion suddenly changed. She looked at Gu Zheng with a delicate expression and said.
"This is?"
Gu Zheng looked at the other party's sad and tearful expression. He felt as if the other party had returned to normal and was carefully obeying him as usual.
Hiss!
In that moment of distraction, a dozen wind blades broke through his defense and left a dozen bloody marks on his body. There was even an extremely deep mark on his cheek that was dripping with blood.
Gu Zheng hurriedly stabilized his mind and continued to block those wind blades. He kept telling himself that Xiao Ying was already under the other party's control. She was no longer herself. Everything about her had been erased. It was impossible for her to recover now.
He quickly broke through the wind blades' blockade and arrived in front of Xiao Ying. Contrary to his expectations, Xiao Ying didn't launch any attacks. Instead, she looked at him with a pitiful expression. She was no longer as stiff as before. Her weapon was even placed behind her back. She didn't seem to be resisting, which made it impossible for him to bring his weapon down.
"Young Master, save me! Kill me! "
A trace of struggle appeared in Xiao Ying's eyes as she carefully begged.
Gu Zheng looked at the other party's trembling body. She seemed to be forcefully controlling her body and not attacking him. This made his heart soften once more. He reached out to touch her shoulder. On one hand, he wanted to comfort her. On the other hand, he wanted to restrain her.
"Don't worry, I will definitely make him …"
Before Gu Zheng could finish his words, he felt a sense of danger rising within him. At the same time, the pitiful look on Xiao Ying's face turned somewhat ferocious. A gust of wind blew from the side. Next, she felt pain from her waist and her figure was sent flying far away. Drawing an arc through the air, she tumbled across the ground for a long distance before coming to a halt.
"Cough, cough!"
Gu Zheng propped himself up and quickly stood up. He spat out mouthfuls of blood. Only then did he feel a little better.
"How is it? How does it feel to be suddenly betrayed? " Wen Tianhou came in front of Gu Zheng and looked at him with a mocking smile. Everything was under his control.
Xiao Ying once again returned to her stiff expression. She held her weapon and stood beside Wen Tianhou without making a sound.
Gu Zheng angrily glared at Wen Tianhou. At the same time, he quickly adjusted the discomfort in his body.
"Xiao Ying, give him a few more." Wen Tianhou looked at Gu Zheng's silence and directly said.
"Young Master, save me. I am in so much pain. Kill me." Xiao Ying's expression changed. She once again begged Gu Zheng bitterly. Her eyes were also filled with resentment. It was impossible to tell that she was being controlled.
"You want you to die? I will kill you!"
Xiao Ying's expression changed again. She looked at Gu Zheng and gnashed her teeth. It was as if Gu Zheng had killed her entire family. She was filled with incomparable hatred.
Gu Zheng's heart sank. He spat out another mouthful of blood. His face became even paler.
"What are you still trying to play? You won't die from this injury. Don't worry, I won't be so careful with you. I want you to personally witness all of them die in pain." Wen Tianhou laughed and walked towards Gu Zheng. It seemed like he was going to use another method to let Gu Zheng experience a different feeling.
Only this kind of torture could make Wen Tianhou feel comfortable. Previously, Wen Tianhou had repeatedly sabotaged his plans. Simply killing him would be letting the other party off easy.
Gu Zheng only looked at Xiao Ying. He seemed to have given up resisting. His body did not make any defenses. Even his insides were as calm as water.
Wen Tianhou approached him step by step. He wanted to see the other party's terrified expression. Seeing the other party like this, he was a little disappointed. He did not waste any more time and reached out to grab the other party.
In his opinion, no matter how the other party struggled, it would be useless. The strength of the two was not on the same level. Even if he was heavily injured, it would be easy to deal with him.
The moment he reached out his hand, Gu Zheng's body suddenly moved. A bright golden light lit up in his hand, drowning him in it. No one could see the situation inside.
"Insignificant skill."
Wen Tianhou's movements did not change at all. He continued to grab the other party. However, just as half of his finger reached into the golden light, his expression suddenly changed. His body disappeared in an instant. A black shadow flew out from inside and chased after him with a speed that was not inferior to his.
"Wen Tianhou, let's see how you will die this time!"
Just three breaths later, under the control of the other party, a huge black pagoda suddenly appeared in mid-air. At the bottom of the pagoda, Wen Tianhou's figure had been fixed in mid-air. Wisps of black fog were constantly circling around him. A powerful suction force came from above. His figure was constantly struggling, but still slowly floated up.
Gu Zheng looked at the sky. He was very careful. He had set a trap for Wen Tianhou, but in the end, Wen Tianhou still fell for it. Of course, if he had not been injured, he would not have been so careful.
This change stunned everyone. Whether in the sky or on the ground, everyone stopped fighting and looked at the sky. Everyone's face was full of disbelief.
Who was Wen Tianhou? Even if he was only an early Immortal Soul, he was still an early Sage-to-be. It was very easy for him to kill everyone here hundreds of times. However, now he was actually bound. It seemed that he could not break free.
Elder Jin, who was on the verge of collapse, quickly retreated and gathered together to fight for a chance.
"Go in."
Pan Xuan, who was shocked, looked at the sky and said what countless people were thinking.
"Quickly save the Heavenly King!"
Zhu Hun, who was on the side, shouted angrily when he saw this scene. He took the lead and flew over. His personal guards and Cheng Feng also rushed over. However, when they were within a certain range, an invisible force completely blocked them, making them unable to get close.
They wanted to attack the black pagoda, but found that their attacks had inexplicably turned to Wen Tianhou's body. This made them no longer act rashly.
On the other hand, Wen Tianhou, who was a little panicked at the beginning, closed his eyes as if he was sensing something. When his body was getting closer and closer to the pagoda, he suddenly opened his eyes.
"Haha, so it's just a broken product. You want to take my life? Dream on." Wen Tianhou laughed loudly.
He originally thought that this was a trump card that Gu Feng had given to Gu Zheng. Even if it was a complete replica, he would not be able to withstand it in his current condition. He knew how powerful it was. If he was in a similar state, Gu Zheng would not be able to do anything to him with his current strength.
However, he did not know that Gu Zheng had this thing in his hands. Otherwise, he would have killed him with a single palm strike. In the end, he was caught by the pagoda and could not dodge, falling into his current situation.
There were no ifs in this, but the worst case scenario was not here yet. A mere broken product, coupled with Gu Zheng's use, gave him a message.
"All of you, listen up. Kill them all. I hope that when I come out, none of the enemies will exist." Wen Tianhou looked around and shouted at them.
Not only that, he also gave Xiao Ying a final order. At the same time, he left a part of his consciousness in her body. When he came out, he would know what was happening outside.
After he finished speaking, his body was completely sucked into the pagoda. The pagoda fell to the ground, creating a huge crater.
At this time, without that invisible force, a few anxious Monster Souls directly rushed in, wanting to destroy the black pagoda from the outside. However, just as they approached, a mysterious force came from the black pagoda. They could not resist at all and were sucked in, causing the others to immediately slow down.
"Don't go near. Even the Heavenly King could not resist. Do you want to fight head on?" Seeing this, Cheng Jun immediately shouted at everyone to prevent them from throwing their lives away for no reason.
"Listen to the Heavenly King's orders and kill the enemies," Jin Yu shouted from the side.
"Besides, the Heavenly King said to wait for him to come out. We believe in him," Zhu Hun said from the side.
They did not see that the Heavenly King's personal guard had already turned around and was heading towards the enemies.
Only then did everyone turn around, preparing to listen to the Heavenly King's orders and kill all the enemies to welcome the Heavenly King.
At the same time that the Monster Souls moved, Xiao Ying had already launched another attack towards Gu Zheng. However, he had to control the black pagoda in the beginning, so he turned a deaf ear to her attacks. He had to be careful. Only when the situation stabilized could he free himself to fight with her.
Ruo Chen took a deep breath and said to City Lord Liu, "Alright, we are going to walk the line between life and death again. As long as we hold on for a while, Wen Tianhou will definitely escape."
"But the key is whether we can hold on until then. There are too many of them. Gu Zheng said that the reinforcements have not arrived yet. It can't be that they are not coming, right?" Elder Jin said from the side.
"Perhaps they were delayed on the way. Now that there is no way out, we have to hold on no matter what." Bai Jiajia also knew what was going on. At the same time, a layer of white light bloomed from her hand and rushed out in all directions.
Everyone had an additional layer of white shield on their bodies. Although the effect was not as strong as Pan Xuan's Black Temple's buff, it was still an additional layer of protection that could save lives at a critical moment. Almost everyone had used the defense buff that Pan Xuan had given them previously. Otherwise, there would have been casualties long ago. Currently, all of their body parts were still on them, and they were only slightly injured.
"They are coming!"
City Lord Xing warned loudly. He gripped the weapon in his hand tightly and prepared for another battle.
At this time, Wen Tianhou's personal guard, the red Ghost General, the black Ghost General, and the few silver Ghost Generals, were quickly approaching them. Although there were less than twenty of them, the pressure they gave them was even greater than the Monster Souls. It was even more suffocating.
"Looks like we're not too late. Everyone, let's go!"
At this moment, dozens of figures rushed over from afar. When the Second Elder saw the situation in front of him, he realized that the situation was not as bad as he had imagined. He shouted and immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"The Painting Soul Clan is really coming." Ruo Chen looked into the distance and was really surprised. Looking at the scale of the other party, they were probably going all out this time.
"Of course, he won't lie. This time, Wen Tianhou is not here. They have come at the right time. It's time for us to counterattack." Pan Xuan said with a smile.
"Not just counterattack." Bai Jiajia said with a sigh of relief when she saw Xu Jia, who was in the crowd, winking at her.
At this moment, only the vanguard of the Painting Soul Clan came over. The rest of the clan was probably behind, but it was enough. There were more than twenty Painting Soul Elders, not to mention the dozens of Mirror Demon Clan's Grand Heavenly Realm experts and a few Meng generation experts. It could be said that this was all their strength.
The appearance of the Painting Soul Clan shocked the Demon Soul Clan. Even the Ghost General Clan was forced to stop and began to rush over. If the Demon Soul Clan were to deal with them, they would not be a match for them.
The grudge between the two clans did not stop here. It had started in the small chiliocosm. Even now, it had not been resolved. Because both clans were very strong and talented, they were naturally not willing to submit to each other.
Half of the Demon Soul Clan turned around and rushed toward the Painting Soul Clan.
They were just the followers of the Heavenly King who had been brainwashed. Naturally, they knew that the Painting Soul Clan was imprisoned in the Palace City. Now that they were here, they naturally knew what it meant.
"Before they come out, let's completely eliminate them." Pan Xuan looked ahead and smiled.
"This time, I'll let them see how powerful our Asura Clan is." Huo Yao shook his head. The grievance from before had filled his heart with boundless anger.
Although their numbers were barely half of the other party's, in terms of true high-level combat power, they had a lot more than the other party. In other words, if nothing unexpected happened, the Demon Soul Clan would have a taste of their grievance.
"Kill!"
An even more intense battle began in the sky. Almost at the same time, another battle began below.
This time, Soul Alliance and Asura Clan had high morale. They began to encircle the other party together with Lone Peak.
For the Demon Soul Clan, everything seemed to have changed. This was something they did not expect at first.
