The atmosphere in the city lord's palace seemed a little solemn, and everyone was livid and silent.
Li Yunxiao came late and frowned: "What happened?"
Chen Dasheng glanced at him and said in a deep voice: "Five batches of scouts have been sent out one after another, and they all disappeared silently! There were a total of 1,500 people, and the last two batches echoed back and forth, and each one was equipped with a cloud-piercing weapon.
Arrow, if there is danger, send a signal directly. But it will never return, and there is no news!"
Li Yunxiao was also quite surprised, "You mean, every batch of scouts were killed instantly, leaving them with no time to release the cloud-piercing arrows?"
Chen Lin looked troubled and explained: "That's what happened according to the situation, but the reality is not that simple. Because each time three hundred people are sent out, they are still divided into many small teams, such as five or six people per team, to detect information.
Act separately. It is impossible to eliminate them all silently."
All the officers looked distressed and confused.
Chen Dasheng also felt a little irritated and said bitterly: "There is no news at all. This is the first time I have encountered such a situation while leading troops in a war!"
Li Yunxiao's eyes were slightly touched. He walked to a chair and sat down directly. "It seems that the situation I mentioned earlier is very likely. They are really confident and waiting for the rabbit to happen!"
Chen Dasheng's pupils shrank suddenly and he said in shock: "You mean, they have deployed a large number of masters in these three towns?"
Li Yunxiao's face was calm and calm, and he said calmly: "It's not just the masters, but also a large-scale formation must have been deployed. I suspect that all three small towns are covered in the formation, otherwise more than a thousand people will enter.
There’s no way there’s no one sending signals.”
"Array?!"
Everyone present was stunned, and their eyes fell on Jia Rong in shock. In their opinion, only magic masters could figure out such mysterious things as formations. Most people only knew that Jia Rong was
The second-level art master who accompanied the army did not know Li Yunxiao's situation.
After such an analysis, Li Yunxiao and the others, who were originally dispensable, have become more and more important.
Chen Dasheng asked with a solemn face: "What should we do?"
Suddenly, an announcement came from outside the door, "Commander, there is a strange phenomenon in the sky to the south!"
"Vision?"
Everyone was stunned. Li Yunxiao suddenly felt something in his heart, stood up from his seat and flew out.
I saw fire clouds appearing in the southern sky, with golden light flickering inside them. Suddenly it turned into a fire phoenix and soared in the sky. In the blink of an eye, it sprinted down from the clouds and disappeared in the southern sky.
It is exactly the same as the vision in the World God Monument!
Li Yunxiao was shocked and shouted: "Master Yuan Zijin, where did the fire phoenix fall just now?"
Yuan Zijin was also shocked by the vision just now. He heard someone calling him, and after thinking deeply, he said: "That is Feifeng Town. These three towns are all located under a Phoenix Mountain. It is said that there is a Phoenix in the mountain. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a Phoenix."
real!"
"Phoenix Mountain?" Li Yunxiao's pupils suddenly tightened, the look on his face became solemn, and he murmured to himself: "That's it!"
Chen Dasheng was shocked: "Yunxiao, what do you know?"
Li Yunxiao waved his hand, turned around and walked towards the city lord's palace, "Let's talk after we come in."
Soon, everyone got ready according to their positions, and all eyes fell on Li Yunxiao.
Li Yunxiao said: "I finally know what's going on. The vision in the sky just now is actually a harbinger of the birth of a heavy treasure, and this treasure must also be related to the Phoenix. Bai Warring States' action this time may not be a real invasion.
Tianshui Kingdom’s goal should be this treasure.”
King Xiao Qing's pupils narrowed and he said in a concentrated voice: "I have only heard of the treasure that can cause strange phenomena in the world, but I didn't expect it to be true! Since it is a treasure that appeared in our Tianshui Kingdom, it naturally cannot fall into the Hundred Warring States.
In hand."
"That's right!" Chen Dasheng said solemnly: "With eight hundred thousand troops dispatched at once to cover up, this treasure must be extraordinary! Without further ado, let's let the army forcefully attack the town! I don't believe that one formation can trap eighty people.
Ten thousand troops!"
Li Yunxiao was noncommittal. Not to mention the formation that trapped an 800,000-strong army, he had seen even one that trapped 8 billion people. It was basically like how many people died, the formation was immortal, and the killing was endless. But it was impossible in the Hundred Warring States Period.
With such great strength, he mused: "It's better to be cautious. Since they dare to do it so blatantly, they must have something to rely on. I think it's better to go and investigate first."
"Exploration?" Chen Dasheng stared at his eyes and said with a wry smile: "All the best scouts are gone forever, how can we still investigate!"
Li Yunxiao smiled slightly and said, "Let me go this time."
"You?" Chen Dasheng fell silent immediately. Logically speaking, Li Yunxiao is indeed the best candidate, but in Chen Dasheng's heart, his safety is more important than that of the 800,000-strong army!
"No!" Luo Yunshang said coldly: "I don't agree!" She finally spoke for the first time in so many days.
Li Yunxiao looked over in astonishment. When he encountered that blade-like gaze, he was so frightened that he quickly shrank back and turned his head away.
"Well, I'll accompany Mr. Yun. It shouldn't be a big problem." King Xiao Qing smiled and said, "Besides, I also want to see this treasure that can cause strange phenomena in the world. It can be an eye-opener."
Li Yunxiao refused: "No, you must use Teacher Luo's Zhiyang Qi to suppress the cold poison, otherwise it will backfire and become a burden. Just ask Ji Meng to accompany me."
Luo Yunshang stood up suddenly and shouted angrily: "Li Yunxiao, have you turned a deaf ear to my words? This is a battle between two armies, why are you trying to be a hero!"
Although he was scolding, his concern was beyond words. Everyone fell silent.
Li Yunxiao smiled softly, moved his lips slightly, and transmitted the sound into the secret.
Luo Yunshang's angry look suddenly disappeared, with a look of disbelief on his face, and he asked suspiciously: "Really?"
Li Yunxiao nodded slightly and smiled.
Luo Yunshang frowned and sat back without saying a word.
Everyone was stunned, staring back and forth, wondering what the two exchanged, and they had reached harmony so quickly.
Chen Dasheng was still worried: "Yunxiao, are you really determined to go?"
"Of course!" Li Yunxiao said with a smile: "It's rare to find good things, so you have to make a fortune no matter what."
Chen Dasheng nodded and said: "In that case, I won't stop you, just remember to put safety first!"
Li Yunxiao smiled and said, "Just wait for my good news."
The figures of him and Ji Meng disappeared in the city lord's palace in an instant. Everyone's eyes were dazzled and they suddenly became stunned.
Luo Yunshang watched the figure disappear outside the door, with a look of deep concern in her eyes.
The two of them ran wildly, several times faster than a horse. Phoenix Mountain was only more than a hundred miles away from Anyong Town. Half an hour later, they could faintly see the prototype of Feifeng Town. Then they slowed down.
.
Li Yunxiao's eyes were slightly focused, looking at the sky in the distance. In an instant, streams of spiritual consciousness emanated from his body crazily, radiating towards Feifeng Town.
His spiritual consciousness was far more powerful than that of a second-level magician. It quickly hit the sky above Feifeng Town and was immediately blocked by a strange force, unable to penetrate even half an inch.
"Hmph!" Li Yunxiao snorted coldly, "Eye Technique--Yao Yue!"
His eyes turned into a blood-red crescent moon, and soon the situation in the town began to appear in his pupils.
The houses and huts one after another are all lifeless and lifeless. The streets of the town are littered with corpses, including those of soldiers and civilians.
Sure enough, all the scouts died in it, and all the original residents were slaughtered. Apart from being devastated, the town was devoid of any life. A strange power spread from the Phoenix Mountain outside the town.
Li Yunxiao's pupils were clear again, but his face was a little flushed, obviously he had spent a lot of soul power.
Ji Meng couldn't help but ask: "Master Yun, how are you doing?"
Li Yunxiao adjusted his breathing slightly for a moment, opened his eyes, and said calmly: "They are all dead. There is not a single living person in the town."
A hint of anger burst out in Ji Meng's pupils, and he said in a deep voice: "Could it be that everyone has entered Phoenix Mountain?"
Li Yunxiao looked at the strange town in front of him and said slowly: "Not necessarily, the situation here is more complicated than I thought. Those people in the town died in extremely weird ways. We must be more careful."
The two of them raised their vigilance to the extreme and began to walk towards the small town step by step.
Soon, a wave of power seemed to pass through them, as if something was brushing against their bodies. The two knew they had entered the formation.
The scene in front of him was indeed exactly the same as what Tongshu had seen, but it was even more shocking, and the stench emanated from the sky. If the two of them had not cultivated deeply enough, they would have vomited long ago. Even so, they all wrinkled up.
Raise your brows.
"It's simply a mass grave!" Ji Meng said angrily and gloomily: "The people from the Hundred Warring States Period are so vicious that they won't spare even the civilians who have no resistance at all."
The two of them left and watched the shocking scenes. Li Yunxiao's expression became more and more solemn, and he said slowly: "The purpose of killing civilians is to prevent the news from leaking. What I am most concerned about now is, who are these people?"
How did they die? Look at the injuries on their bodies, they are not caused by humans at all."
Ji Meng was startled and looked at the bodies. Sure enough, the wounds on their bodies were all blurry, as if they had been bitten by wild beasts. He was shocked and said: "Could it be?"
The steps under Li Yunxiao's feet suddenly stopped. It seemed that weak breaths were coming from all directions, and they were getting stronger and more numerous. His eyes sank and he said coldly: "Sure enough, it's
Monster!"
Ji Meng looked around in shock, and suddenly there was a constant "buzzing" sound coming from the bungalows everywhere, and faint lights emerged, more and more, like fireflies, covering them in the blink of an eye.
