Just the day after the fall of Sangucheng, shortly after the Du Mansion received the shocking news, Fenglin City, another city on the border of Du Mansion, was already in chaos.
Fenglin City.
Perhaps deeply influenced by the Three Ancient City, the six small sects in Fenglin City actually rebelled and rushed to the Du Mansion stationed here. At the same time, the six small sects also sent teams to Shangcheng in the Tang Gang for help.
Fights broke out everywhere in Fenglin City. The guards of Du Mansion retreated step by step and finally trapped in the city lord's mansion.
The bonfire of the alarm has been lit, and the remaining guards of the Du Mansion who are guarding the dead can only hope that reinforcements can arrive as soon as possible. Wanhe City in the rear almost faces the Du Mansion reinforcements that confronted Sangucheng outside the Sangucheng, and at the same time, they discovered the bonfire attacked by the enemy in Fenglin City.
Fenglin City, smoke filled the city, the city gate was closed, and the streets and alleys were everywhere in the city, and the people had already hidden themselves, peering at the fierce and murderous martial artists outside the door with fear.
The city gate was hung with a large banner of Tang characters, but this banner was obviously new, and the Tang characters were obviously not as domineering as the Tang gang flag, and so powerful. After all, the rebels were also the six sects, so they should not be able to do a good job of a banner.
There were still many martial arts practitioners standing on the city wall who were waiting for a long battle, as if they were waiting for something, as if they were on guard.
However, more people gathered in the City Lord's Mansion in Fenglin City. These people surrounded the City Lord's Mansion. They had failed to launch several attacks before, so they simply surrounded them and did not attack.
Perhaps because of the incident near the Sangucheng, Fenglin City has not received the secret order from Du's mansion, but it has still strengthened its vigilance yesterday. For this reason, the city lord's mansion has not been conquered by the enemy.
Tens of miles away from Fenglin City, a team of elite Tang Gang guards rode fast horses and headed straight for Fenglin City.
Outside the Sangu City, the Du family members who were originally confronting the Tang Gang's guards in the city finally decided to give up the Sangu City, which had been occupied by the Tang Gang, and instead rushed to Fenglin City to strive to preserve Fenglin City.
Beimeng City, which is also close to Fenglin City, just after sending reinforcements to Fenglin City, a rebellion also broke out in the city.
The two cities on the east border were in a hurry, and one city fell. Although the three cities supported by the rear sent reinforcements in time, they still did not have an advantage. The enemy was much more powerful than imagined.
The nearby cities of the Tang Gang are constantly receiving surrender from these cities. How could the Tang Gang refuse such good things? He constantly dispatched troops and generals to try to occupy these cities as soon as possible.
The east side of Du Mansion is in a hurry, but the west side is not stable.
Rebellion broke out on the same day when the Shawang Sect, Shangguan Pavilion and Dufu City, which were close to Wumen.
The rebellion in Huicheng was exactly the same as the rebellion in the three cities on the east side. They were all small sects in the city rebelled together, and caught the Du family defenders in the city off guard.
After the rebellious gang of Huicheng City seized the besieged City Lord's Mansion, they sent two groups to the nearby Shawangzong and Shangguan Pavilion, surrendered, threatening to give Huicheng to whoever takes Huicheng first and promise that they would be the city lords to whom they would be the city lords.
The King of Sha was the first to make a promise and sent elite soldiers and generals to take over Huicheng before Shangguan Pavilion. A team of people who happened to return from the Wumen also entered Huicheng directly to strengthen the troops in the city.
As for the city lord's mansion in Huicheng, the Shawang Sect's troops ordered a siege but did not attack, claiming that they were both ASEAN elders' families. The two families have always been friendly and friendly, and they could not bear to take action, so that the city lord and guards of Huicheng surrendered.
But the arrogant martial artist, who is also the lord of Du Fu Huicheng City, would have chosen to surrender in shame? So the Huicheng City was in such a stalemate.

Ducheng, Du Mansion Renyi Hall.
It was already late at night, and the candlelight in Renyi Hall illuminated the magnificent hall. But the atmosphere in this hall was so heavy that it was breathless.
The head of the mansion, Du Zhimu, frowned, lowered his head, and stroked his eyebrows and beards. The bad news has been going on these days, and he has become much older.
"Master!" Du Zhijin stood up and persuaded, "What are you hesitating about? We should set off immediately and take back the four cities on my border!"
Du Zhitu, who had always been steady, immediately responded: "Yes, even though the Tang Gang and Shawang Sect have entered the city, there are not many people after all, and there are not many masters. If it is too late, I am afraid there is really no hope of taking it back."
"Yes!" Du Zhihuo stood up, "What are you hesitating about!"
Originally, when the Du Mansion received the news of the rebellion of the San Ancient City on the border, he was about to send Du Zhihuo to lead the elite troops to quell the rebellion. The clinker, the elite team had just assembled and was about to set off, but then he received news that the Tang Gang had settled in San Ancient City.
Then, we received news of rebellion in Fenglin City, Beimeng City and Huicheng.
Such a dense rebellion was never seen in the history of the Du Mansion. It was not until this time that Du Zhimu realized a trace of unusual meaning and stopped Du Zhihuo, who was about to go to the Sangucheng.
"Please be careful, this matter is not that simple." At this time, Du Ziwei stood up, looked at everyone, and said slowly, "The four cities on the border are rioting at the same time, and someone must be instructed behind this."
"So what!" Du Zhijin shouted sternly, without giving Du Ziwei any face, "Are we just watching the city and territory being divided and annexed!"
At this time, Du Zhimu raised his head, glared at Du Zhijin, frowned, and waved his hand and said, "Let Ziwei say."
Du Ziwei shook his head helplessly and laughed dryly, continuing: "From the situation in the past few months, the person behind this instructor is probably not just coveting the few cities on the border of our Du Mansion. It is very likely that he wants to eat my Du Mansion!"
"ah!"
As soon as these words were said, everyone was shocked. Even Du Zhitu, who had always been calm, could not help but look frightened and frownless.
"Oh." Du Zhimu shook his head and sighed. What Du Ziwei said was exactly what he was concerned about. "Ziwei said right. I am worried that after we sent troops to the border, Du City would be empty and someone would take advantage of the situation. The four cities on the border are small, and the ancestors of my Du Mansion had a thousand-year foundation! "
After a pause, Du Zhimu continued: "Besides, my Du family's disciples have suffered heavy losses in the past few months. There are not many outstanding disciples of the young generation, and now there are very few. If we send troops to the border, we can't stand the number of people on the other side. How long can we last? Besides, in this ASEAN, we are not invincible."
The situation is clear now, Du Zhijin frowned, with worry and anxiety in his eyes. Du Zhitu's face is also ugly, his mind is changing rapidly, thinking and thinking.
"Then, what should we do now?" Du Zhihuo lowered his head slightly, a little helpless and a little confused.
Hearing this, everyone looked at Du Ziwei at the same time.
"Hey!" Du Ziwei sighed softly and said helplessly, "Yesterday, the Lord of the Mansion asked me to 800 yuan to send a letter to the Wumen, and wait for the Wumen to intervene as soon as possible."
"In addition, the cities in various places are ordered to be on high alert and strictly control small sects in various places. The enemy had already planned it, so it is probably too late to retake these four cities. Let the nearby cities send teams to wait for everything to make a decision."
"I'm going to the Wumen!" When Du Zhijin heard this, he volunteered to go to the Wumen to bring reinforcements. It seemed that he was really anxious.
However, Du Zhimu waved his hand and said, "I just said that the enemy has ulterior motives. We dare not act rashly, for fear that Du Cheng will be in trouble. Yesterday, Peng Yu personally led my disciples to Wumen, and Yukong went to Wumen day and night. It should be almost here."
*******
late at night.
Du Zhimu sat alone in the study, frowning and sighing.
Over the past few years, the Du family has secretly devoted themselves to cultivating disciples. Although they have achieved some achievements, these disciples are far from able to take on the heavy responsibilities of the Du family. Instead, they have suffered even disasters. The young generation in the mansion, and even the backbone disciples, have suffered heavy losses.
Even the most elite and mysterious black guards have lost more than 30 people.
Whether all this was secretly taken by other families, or was it really a mysterious emerging force as rumored, and even the Du family knew nothing about it.
Du Zhimu is exhausted now and really doesn't know how to deal with such a dilemma.
Suddenly, the candlelight in the room trembled, and the familiar man in black appeared in front of Du Zhimu with an anxious expression. But there seemed to be a hint of joy in his eyes.
"I found out who the enemy is?!" Du Zhimu stared at the joy in the eyes of the man in black and stood up, his eyebrows and beards trembled even because of excitement.
Unexpectedly, the man in black shook his head.
Du Zhimu was just disappointed and ready to scold him, but the man in black quickly said, "Young Master Du Xuan is still alive."
"What?!" Du Zhimu's dim and unsightly eyes suddenly widened.
The man in black smiled at the corner of his mouth, raised his head, and said, "Yes, my subordinate just received the news that Young Master Du Xuan appeared in Qingshan Villa under the Kongtong Mountains."
"Okay, okay!" Du Zhimu's eyebrows were stretched out rarely, and then asked, "Is Xuan'er injured? Can his cultivation be affected?"
The man in black shook his head and smiled, "No, the news says, Young Master Du Xuan is very good."
"Haha! I know that Xuan'er's good people have their own appearance, so there will be no accident." Du Zhimu laughed loudly. This was the only gratifying good news in the past few months.
"but......"
Du Zhimu stopped laughing and immediately frowned and shouted, "But what!"
After pondering for a moment, the man in black said: "The news says that Young Master Du Xuan is the Kongtong Mountains that he walked out with his disciples of Shawang Sect."
"Shawang Sect?"
"Yes! Moreover, it is Wang Lingyun, the granddaughter of the Sect Master of Shawang Sect."
"Wang Lingyun?" Du Zhimu stroked his beard and thought, and suddenly a gleam flashed in his eyes, "Is it Wang Lingyun, who is engaged to Yumu?"
"Yes, it's her. Moreover, it seems that the relationship with Young Master Du Xuan is unusual." The man in black nodded, looking a little worried.
“How unusual?”
"It seems, a bit too much, intimate."
"ah?"
Then, the man in black calmed down and took Wang Lingyun away from the disciples of the Shawang Sect. Du Xuan followed him with a long loss and was stunned for a long time, and finally went to Xingfeng Town to inform Du Zhimu.
"It seems that Young Master Du Xuan does not know Wang Lingyun's identity." A moment later, the man in black said again.
Du Zhimu asked in dismay: "How can I see it?"
"The news says that Young Master Du Xuan calls Wang Lingyun Yunling." The man in black glanced at Du Zhimu with a bad face and said carefully, "Or, Ling'er."
