The Red-beaked Crane sensed the hostility in their eyes and had a bad feeling.
"Lord Blood Skull, what are you trying to do?
Are you trying to use me to frame the Myriad Stars Alliance after doing something bad? "
The Red-beaked Crane looked at Gu Xuan and asked in a sobbing tone.
"Ahem, this is the military advisor of the Blood Skull Gang.
I'm the real Blood Skull. Don't get it wrong again. "
The two-meter-tall Blood Skull felt his heart skip a beat every time he heard the Red-beaked Crane call him Gu Xuan.
He was afraid that Gu Xuan would kill him one day and replace him.
The Red-beaked Crane looked at the Blood Skull in surprise and quickly came to a conclusion.
The famous Blood Skull, the number one bandit in the world, was actually just a puppet! And a puppet with no right to speak.
It had called him Blood Skull Gang many times before it dared to correct him.
The more he thought about it, the more terrifying it was.
"Don't worry about these details. What you need to worry about is how to cooperate with us.
Red-beaked Crane, you're right. This time, we're using you to make the Myriad Star Alliance the scapegoat.
You won't refuse me, right? "
Gu Xuan stared at the Red-beaked Crane with a smile.
The Red-beaked Crane shuddered.
"Don't worry, as long as you don't kill me, I'll cooperate with you.
I wonder who the Blood Skull Gang is going to rob this time.
Don't tell me it's the City Lord Mansion? "
Gu Xuan shook his head.
"Don't you know the way to the City Lord Mansion?
We're going in the opposite direction. Of course, it's not the City Lord Mansion.
Don't worry, we're going to rob the Hanging Hu Tower of the Li Family! "
Thump! The Red-beaked Crane fell to the ground in fear.
He had done his research on the current situation of the Hanging Hu Tower before he came here.
Not only was the security tighter, but the City Lord Mansion was also guarded by the City Guards. This was the reason why the Myriad Star Alliance chose to break into the City Lord Mansion tonight.
It was even said that a big shot from the Li Family was guarding the place to intimidate the Blood Skull Gang.
You're going to rob it?
What's the difference between this and walking into a trap?
Unfortunately, there was no other way. If they wanted to stay alive, what else could they do?
Gu Xuan glanced at the members of the Blood Skull Gang.
"Alright, everyone. Remember, we are no longer members of the Blood Skull Gang, but members of the Myriad Star Alliance.
From this moment onwards, I am Daoist Cloudvoid! Everyone, follow me! "
Gu Xuan waved his hand and the group of people once again sneaked towards the Hanging Hu Tower.
The Red-beaked Sky Crane followed behind Gu Xuan, feeling uneasy. It had gone to rob the Hanging Hu Tower for no reason. It was truly unpredictable.
Behind the Red-beaked Sky Crane was Big Stone.
He purposely walked behind the Red Beak Sky Crane as a warning to the Red Beak Sky Crane to not have any bad ideas.
Of course, the Red-beaked Sky Crane did not dare to have any bad ideas.
Gu Xuan's strength, he still could not fathom it until now. Why would he seek death himself?
The only thing he could do now was to take one step at a time.
Tonight, the Xuanhu Tower was brightly lit.
It was not an exaggeration to say that there was a sentry every three steps and a sentry every five steps.
The only way into the Hanging Hu Tower was filled with sentries.
Unless one flew, there was no way to avoid these sentries.
However, the entire Vermilion Bird City had a Sky Restriction Spell. Although the Sky Restriction Spell was not strong, once someone flew, it would immediately trigger the alarm and be discovered.
The Sky Restriction Spell of the Vermilion Bird City was not meant to prevent martial artists from flying, but to discover martial artists who were flying.
The Vermilion Bird City's City Guards were guarding the outermost perimeter of the Hanging Hu Tower.
Slightly further in were the guards of the Hanging Hu Tower.
Even further in were the group of experts from the Li Clan who were here to help.
They were the direct descendants of the Li Clan who were personally selected by the Li Clan's big shots. Other than strength, the most important thing was loyalty.
Anyone could betray the Li Clan, but not them.
If they were in the Red-beaked Sky Crane's position, they would not betray the Li Clan even if it cost them their lives.
At this moment, in a secret room in the Hanging Hu Tower, the legendary big shots of the Li Clan were here! There were two big shots of the Li Clan. They were the Li Clan's current Patriarch, Senior Dan, and the Li Clan's guest, Elder Zhi. Other than the two big shots, there were seven other people in the secret room. All of them were half-step Great Sages.
One of them was the Hanging Hu Tower's Master, Li Mu.
However, at this moment, Li Mu was not even qualified to sit in this secret chamber.
In fact, only Senior Dan and Elder Zhi had the right to sit in the secret room.
The rest of the people stood to the side respectfully.
The atmosphere in the secret room was strangely stifling. No one spoke.
Not even the sound of breathing could be heard.
It was as if everyone was trying their best to reduce their presence.
After an indeterminate amount of time, the Paragon of Pills finally stood up from her seat.
"Elder Zhi, do you think the Blood Skull Gang will really come?"
Senior Dan did not seem very confident.
Elder Zhi stroked his beard and smiled.
"I can't be sure if they will come or not, but we can't be wrong with our arrangements.
If the Blood Skull Gang comes, we will be like a turtle in a jar.
If they don't come, we will be able to open for business safely.
The Hanging Hu Tower's losses will be recovered gradually.
Patriarch, do you want them to come?
Or do you not want them to come? "
Senior Dan shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Elder Zhi, you have a clear mind. To be honest, I want them to come.
This way, we can catch them all in one fell swoop. If this matter really involves the City Lord's Mansion and the Heaven's Response Pavilion, not only will we be able to recover our losses, but we will also be able to demand compensation. "
Elder Zhi laughed.
"That's wishful thinking.
However, this is the truth.
No matter who comes today, even if the Great Stone Ancestor comes personally, they will not be able to get away scot-free. If we kill the bandits and accidentally kill the Great Stone Ancestor, I'm sure the Vermilion Bird Celestial Sect will not blame us. "
Elder Zhi stroked the jade ring on his thumb. His eyes flashed with killing intent.
Senior Dan was a little confused.
"Didn't you say that you can't be sure if they will come?
Why do you sound so sure now? "
Elder Zhi narrowed his eyes.
"I only said that I can't be sure if the Blood Skull Gang will come.
The premise is that the bandits who came last time were really the Blood Skull Gang.
If the Blood Skull Gang is a cultivator from the City Lord's Mansion or the Heaven's Response Pavilion in disguise, then I'm 90% sure that they will come. After all, it's addictive to profit without any cost.
Moreover, we've already done what we should do. All we have to do is wait patiently. "
Senior Dan's eyes flashed with killing intent when he heard this.
"I hope they don't disappoint me!"
The secret chamber fell silent again.
After an unknown amount of time, Elder Zhi abruptly sat up from his seat. "Someone has entered the perception barrier I've set up! There are quite a few of them, a total of eighteen.
Eh, wait, it looks like nineteen?
What's going on? Why did I miss one of them?
That shouldn't be the case. "
Elder Zhi was puzzled.
"Forget it. There's no need to worry about these details now. Activate the defensive formation and send a signal to the City Lord's Mansion for help.
This time, there's no reason for the City Lord's Mansion to not come.
Let's go out first! "
Everyone's eyes were filled with excitement.
Senior Dan laughed heartily.
"Let's go. Everyone, follow me. Let's see exactly what these bandits are.
Are they humans or ghosts? "
