Xu Tong didn't know how the leader of the White Lotus died. After all, he had already hid in the coffin at that time. Naturally, he didn't know how unjust the death of the leader of the White Lotus was.
However, judging from the fight just now and the fact that the opponent had no skin at all, Xu Tong could probably guess that the person in front of him was the dead leader of the White Lotus Sect.
"Ahhhhhh~~"
Facing the inquiry, the White Lotus leader only let out a shrill wail, and then quickly attacked Xu Tong.
"careful!!"
When Ma Qi saw someone attacking his son, he pulled out a long knife and stood in front of Xu Tong without thinking.
Although Ma Qi's martial arts skills are not outstanding, he is also a serious martial arts practitioner, and he is even the number one martial artist... and the second best martial artist.
In addition, following the Xiang family to put down the turmoil in all directions, the sword skills honed by killing enemies on the battlefield are always much stronger than the second-rate masters in the world.
He slashed with a sneer, but the leader of the White Lotus raised his hand to block the "Puff!" sound. Ma Qixing clearly felt that he had cut straight on, but it felt hard and astringent, not the feeling of cutting into flesh and blood.
The eyes of the leader of the White Lotus were mixed with excitement and bloodthirsty. He grasped the blade with his fingers and twisted it. A soft force came along the spine of the blade. Ma Qi's expression suddenly changed. He grasped the handle of the blade tightly with both hands, but the other party then made another move.
With a flick of his wrist, with a "pop" sound, Ma Qi's long knife chopped into pieces all over the sky!
Seeing the long knife shattered, Ma Qi knew something was wrong, but years of fighting on the battlefield had left Ma Qi with an unyielding determination to fight to the death. He held the broken blade and stabbed straight into the opponent's chest.
The eyes of the leader of the White Lotus were full of bloodthirsty. He reached out and grabbed the broken blade in the air. He ignored Ma Qi and raised the knife to stab it, and the blade pierced Ma Qi's eye socket.
It was obvious that a lose-lose outcome was about to take place, and everyone who followed Madi had it in their throats.
Unexpectedly, what surprised these people even more was that a pair of hands with golden gloves appeared between the two, like lightning, and punched the leader of the White Lotus in the face first. The huge power made the leader of the White Lotus...
Zhang's face, whose facial features could not be clearly seen, was even more squeezed into a ball.
Then he pushed Ma Qi away with his other hand and kicked the leader of the White Lotus away.
Ma Qi was startled, he didn't expect there to be such a master, but when he raised his head, he became confused, because this master was none other than his precious son, Ma Hongwen.
Not only was Ma Qi dumbfounded now, but the guards behind Ma Qi were also shocked.
It's not an exaggeration to say that my jaw dropped.
Ma Qi's personal guards all know who Ma Hongwen is. This young master has been Ma Qi's pet peeve since he was a child, and they have never thought of letting him practice martial arts.
But Ma Hongwen has been afraid of hardship since he was a child, and he would make his grandma feel distressed if he cried even a little bit. Therefore, Ma Hongwen was completely scrapped in martial arts.
In addition, as Western lethal weapons such as steam guns, steam cannons, and musket battalions became more and more perfect, March also realized that becoming a martial artist would not go far, so he did not insist on it and planned to let him study literature.
Uh...who would have known that he would later turn into a bad guy who was incompetent in both writing and martial arts.
But now Ma Hongwen has suddenly transformed. He actually has such great kung fu and is so powerful that anyone else would be shocked.
Ma Qi was also dumbfounded for several seconds. Is this still his own son? He hasn’t offered high-quality incense to his ancestors recently.
At this time, Xu Tong did not bother to explain to Ma Qi that the Chapter of Killing has a time limit. When the time limit expires, his combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced, so he must kill the White Lotus Leader as soon as possible.
"Ahhhh!!"
The White Lotus Cult Leader got up from the ground, opened his mouth desperately, revealing a terrifying bloody mouth and let out a low roar at Xu Tong.
This guy seems to have lost his original rationality, but his body still retains the instinct of a great master's method. With his hands, he formed a flower finger, and a lotus shadow appeared on his fingertips. This was supposed to be the secret skill of the White Lotus Sect.
However, the current leader of the White Lotus has no thinking at all and relies solely on instinct, so he cannot display real lethality at all.
"You're not a eunuch. Why are you pinching your fingers? It's disgusting!"
Xu Tong's iron fist was like a hammer, hitting the fingers of the White Lotus Cult Master hard, and everyone could even clearly hear the sound of bones cracking on the White Lotus Cult Leader's fingers.
A set of melee combat techniques, Xu Tong's elbows, knees, fists, and feet seemed to be weapons all over his body, hitting the leader of the White Lotus.
Everyone just listened to the muffled sound like chopping meat, and all of them thought of hand-beaten beef balls.
With a seemingly unorganized punch, the leader of the White Lotus slumped to the ground like mud.
But even at this level, the leader of the White Lotus still showed tenacious vitality. Xu Tong now doubted whether this guy would not die even if he chopped off his head.
So he tried to take out the bell, activated the soul arresting technique, and grabbed the White Lotus leader's body. Along with a ball of soul balls, the White Lotus leader on the ground completely lost his movement.
Xu Tong directly threw the soul bead of the White Lotus leader into the hall. Da Ya took the soul bead with a delighted expression as if he had seen a golden elixir. He slapped away Ji Xiang who was sitting on the stove lid and removed it.
Throw a soul bead into it and refine it with the soul of the eldest princess.
As soon as the furnace door was opened, the eldest princess screamed at Xu Tong: "Boy, let me out, and I can guarantee you a way to survive. This old guy Xunlong will definitely not let you go, you...
"
Before the eldest princess could finish her words, she saw Daya raised her hand to show that she was about to run away, and placed it heavily on the stove lid again.
"Squeak~~~"
"son!"
Ma Qi frowned and walked up, looking Xu Tong up and down.
Seeing Ma Qi's serious expression, Xu Tong had to make up an excuse in his mind, but Ma Qi suddenly slapped Xu Tong on the shoulder and laughed: "Hahahaha, you have all seen it, my son is born with supernatural powers, he is worthy of being
my son."
Xu Tong was stunned, and before he could say anything, he heard Ma Qi whisper on his shoulder: "If you have any questions, we'll talk about it when we go home."
Ma Qi is not a big man, but compared to his son's strangeness, the trouble at hand is bigger. The dead can be resurrected, so the Ming army the guard said may be true.
This is not the time to worry about my son's problems.
Xu Tong didn't expect Ma Qi to be so open-minded, but since Ma Qi didn't ask any more questions, he saved himself a lot of trouble.
At this time, Xu Tong's body suddenly flashed with bursts of golden light.
It's the two balls of dragon energy in his arms.
The dragon energy seemed to be shaking uneasily in Xu Tong's hand, as if he had been summoned by something and was resisting instinctively.
At this time, the prop booklet suddenly sounded a prompt.
"Ding: You have met the triggering conditions for the sudden mission and will be punished for the sudden mission. If you do not accept it, you can choose to ignore this mission.
Main mission 4: Retrograde!
Mission goal: Prevent all dragon energy from gathering and prevent Taoist Xunlong from completing the ritual.
Task time: 3 hours
Mission failure: no penalty
Mission completed: you can obtain the title of Retrograde Sequence."
Xu Tong, who received the mission reminder, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment and looked at Wang Zheng aside: "Have you received the mission??"
"No, haven't our main tasks been completed?"
Wang Zheng shook his head and said that he had received nothing.
It seems that this mission is specially prepared for me. Although I can choose to ignore it, I have to say that the reward of this mission is really something I cannot refuse.
I have already synthesized one of the Retrograde Sequence Titles, and by gathering the second one, I can form a bond.
Remember that the effect of the second bond seems to be +1 for all skills. Just for this reason, there is no reason to refuse.
"Let's go, go out and check the situation first."
After Ma Qi finished speaking, he called his personal guards: "You protect the young master!"
Guard:…………
The group of people carefully and quietly walked along the palace path to take a look, and were immediately shocked by the scene in front of them.
I saw a huge guard of honor in front of me walking along the main road of Taihe Hall, consisting of cavalry and six lines of infantry.
When Xu Tong took a closer look, he immediately became greedy.
Even if these cavalry and warriors are not alive, their bodies are as sinister as the wind. At first glance, they look like warriors who have fought in hundreds of battles. They are much more powerful than my own cavalry.
What's more, there are six rows of warriors holding shields and scimitars. Their eye sockets are flashing with red blood. Their uniform steps make Xu Tong like them more and more. He can't help but think about finding an opportunity to kill these ghosts in one pot.
.
Followed by 12 dragon flags held by soldiers, divided into two rows.
Nine shirtless men behind him were carrying a dragon chair.
However, there was nothing on the dragon chair, but what was strange was that there were nine skulls placed under the dragon chair.
After that, there are two neat rows of bands. The instruments are mainly various drums, mainly drums, big drums, cymbals, festival drums, snare drums, Yubao drums, etc.
This specification is exactly the specification for the emperor's travel, but their clothes, hairstyles and crowns have nothing to do with the Datong Dynasty.
"Hey, it's really the Ming Army!"
Ma Qi took his head back, looked up at the sky and cursed: "What's going on with this bitch? The world is already in chaos, and now this happens again? Isn't it not enough?"
After speaking, he turned back to look at the guards behind him: "You guys will follow me to Qiongtian Hall to pick up the emperor, while the others will take the young master out of the palace."
When Xu Tong heard this, he hurriedly said: "Dad, I really can't leave. You only have so many people around you. If you want to save the emperor, you have to dedicate some of them to protect me. It must be a bad thing. Besides, one more person is more strength."
"
"Nonsense!"
Ma Qi does not accept this trick. Like parents all over the world, no matter how prosperous a child is outside, he is still just a child in the eyes of his parents.
"Dad, even if you want to send me out, at least give me a safe way. In this situation, there is no movement from the 30,000 troops outside. Do you really feel safe sending me out??"
Hearing this, Ma Qi frowned and thought, supposedly there is such a big movement, how come there must be no news about the 30,000 troops outside? If there is news, why is there no movement now?
"So, it's safer for me to stay with you than to go out. What's more, judging from the situation, it's not easy to go out."
Xu Tong looked towards the sky, and there was chaos above his eyes.
The celestial phenomenon seemed to be one aspect, but it was not just a celestial phenomenon. Xu Tong suddenly remembered something, the formations arranged by Taoist Xunlong before.
Yes, that's right!
Thinking of this, Xu Tong thought of this and suddenly remembered the formations that Taoist Xunlong had arranged before, and also recalled that Taoist Xunlong once said that the Forbidden City was originally built by his ancestors. Maybe there might be some connection between them.
.
"Okay! But don't be brave!"
After thinking about it again and again, Ma Qi felt that what Xu Tong said made sense, so he reluctantly agreed and agreed to take him with him.
After making up his mind, Ma Qi took Xu Tong and the others along the side path and headed straight towards the Qiongtian Hall.
But when they arrived at Qiongtian Hall, they discovered that the outside of the hall was already in a mess, with nothing left except corpses all over the ground.
"not good!"
Seeing this, Ma Qi was in a state of confusion. He and Xiang Gongbao were now inseparable from each other, but Xiang Gongbao must not be at odds with each other.
Ma Qi has followed Xiang Gongbao for so many years, and he knows that the reason why Xiang Gongbao can dominate the world's troops is precisely because Xiang Gongbao single-handedly promoted all the generals under him. It would be okay if Xiang Gongbao is still alive. If he
If he dies, the garrisoned border troops will immediately rebel, and then the princes will unite and cause chaos in the world.
Immediately, Ma Qi hurriedly led the people into Qiantian Hall. Xu Tong and Wang Zheng were following behind and were about to move forward.
"Master!"
A light call made Xu Tong pause his steps, and when he looked back, he saw Le Rou standing in the corner.
Xu Tong was immediately happy when he saw Lerou's expression. He insisted on the purpose of coming back. Apart from the unexpected mission, there was another reason because of Lerou.
I promised her to keep her safe, but if I just slapped my butt and left like this, it would inevitably leave a gap in my heart.
However, at this time, the fairy stove at the entrance of the hall behind Xu Tong made a "bang bang" sound, and then Xu Tong heard the eldest princess's scream: "Boy, if you don't want to die, run away now!!"
