Although he was talking to the young man, the old man named Kang did not really focus on the young man. When the old man enlightened the young man, he always maintained a high degree of vigilance.
When there were spiritual energy fluctuations in the distance, the old man was the first to react. It was not until he saw the person clearly that he slowly withdrew his gaze.
At this moment, the young man was holding Guo Tong's body tightly, tears lingering in his eyes, and tears dripped from the corners of his eyes at the moment he couldn't help blinking.
The person who came was none other than the old man surnamed Zhao who had been chasing the assassin before. When he came slowly, he had already seen the situation here. He was busy chasing people before and had no time to confirm the situation of the city lord, but he had already vaguely understood something.
Good hunch.
At this moment, he saw that the city lord Guo Tong he had been following was turning into a cold corpse. The blood flowing from his eyebrows was slowly drying up and freezing, and countless emotions were surging in his chest.
The old man surnamed Kang looked up, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes. The old man surnamed Zhao shook his head helplessly, and then said: "The other party has been prepared for a long time. Not long after I chased him out, someone interfered from the side, and finally even one
No one caught up.
However, the city lord must have read it correctly. The person who used the fatal blow on the city lord should undoubtedly be Wang Zheng, the second commander of the Wang family. Regardless of the opponent's aura attribute, the movement and martial arts used when escaping, and the most unique weapon
He is the only one who owns the long sword in Xuanwu, let alone the city."
After thinking thoughtfully for a long time, the old man surnamed Kang frowned and murmured: "What happened was too sudden and too strange. Why did they suddenly attack the city lord. Except for Wang Zheng's other two people,
Who could it be? How would this benefit them?"
A series of questions were thrown out, and the old man surnamed Zhao hesitated and said: "Regardless of whether the Lin family and the Suwang family are related or not, judging from what happened tonight, we have already expressed our cooperation with the Guihua family. So.
It is normal for him to arouse the hostility of the Wang family.
But we didn’t expect that the Wang family would take action so quickly, and the timing was such a coincidence. We had just planned to join forces with the Suwang family, but they took action against the city lord at this critical moment."
"Yes, this coincidence is too unreasonable. The action just now was well planned. From the very beginning, the opponent predicted our reaction, successfully isolated the Lord of the City, and then killed him.
If they know us so well, they should have judged that even if we don't join forces with their Suwang family, we will never be able to get together with the ghost painter again. To attack the city lord at this time would not be to sever an ally and establish a new one.
A strong enemy?"
The old man surnamed Kang continued, his eyes moving as he spoke, as if he was conducting rapid analysis and judgment.
"Although I can't figure out the other things for now, you should have seen the person who just made the move. Although that person was wrapped very tightly, there is no doubt that he is Wang Zheng." Looking at the old man surnamed Kang, who was silent for a long time, the old man surnamed Zhao endured.
He kept saying.
He nodded, then shook his head slightly and said: "There is a big problem here. If Wang Zheng didn't want others to notice, then he shouldn't have used that special weapon and that set of snake sword martial arts.
And since he uses these, it is equivalent to telling others his identity, so what is the point of wrapping his body so tightly? If we..."
"You two!" The young man who had been confused before seemed to suddenly wake up and said fiercely.
Neither of the two old men hesitated. The old man surnamed Kang immediately stopped talking, and he and the old man surnamed Zhao faced the young man at the same time, listening quietly to what the other party had to say.
"My father's revenge must be avenged. Unfortunately, my strength is too weak, and I am undervalued, so I can only leave the matter of revenge to you two. I hope that I can use all the rights my father left behind and the power in his hands to help him avenge him.
, I’m here to say thank you.”
As he spoke, the young man slowly leaned down, holding Guo Tong's body and bowing down in front of the two old men in Kang and Zhao. This action was so sudden that the two old men in Kang and Zhao did not react for a while.
But after being stunned for a moment, the two men hurriedly came to the young man's side and helped him up.
"What are you talking about? The city lord is very kind to us. His wish is for you to take over Kuocheng. We two old bones will definitely give you our full assistance." The old man surnamed Zhao explained anxiously.
The old man surnamed Kang on the side also said with a serious face: "My surname is Kang and my name is Kang Yi, and his surname is Zhao and his name is Zhao Mang. If it hadn't been for the city lord's help, we would have turned into two piles of loess. Over the years, the city lord has treated us badly.
We are not thin either.
Young Master, please rest assured, as long as we two old guys are still here, you will be the lord of this vast city, and with the power that originally belonged to the lord, we will definitely gather them under your command."
The young man moved his eyes away from his father Guo Tong's face and calmly fell on the faces of the two old men in front of him. He didn't say a word for a while. He was trying to judge how sincere the words of the two old men were, or whether he just wanted to stabilize himself temporarily.
, and there are other plans.
After all, he does have the right to take charge of Kuocheng now, but if he temporarily takes over the position of city lord, in the future, if the two elders in front of him want to gradually evade him, it is not impossible to win the position of city lord.
However, the two old men in front of him looked at him without moving for a moment, and there was no flicker or dodge in their eyes, which made the young man feel a little relieved.
He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Take my father back to the City Lord's Mansion first. From today on, I, Guo Xiao, will take over as the City Lord of Kuocheng. I will definitely do what my father failed to do."
The two old men responded first, then clasped their fists and saluted, and said at the same time: "Just follow the city lord's orders!"
…
The aura condensed on the dark ghost claws, but unlike before when Gui Feng's ghost claws were used to the limit, there was a faint blue ghost flame lingering on them. But this is an ordinary ghost claw, and its power is already
It's very surprising, after all, the strength of the person who took action has reached the cultivation stage.
At the same time, an extremely flexible long sword came swinging towards him. It looked like the sword didn't have much power, but instead seemed to be swinging like a silver silk ribbon.
But no one will underestimate the ghost claw, let alone the "weak" sword, because the owner of the ghost claw is Gui Yun, the leader of the ghost family, and the owner of the sword is the current painter.
The head of the house draws the shape.
The two men attacked at the same time, and no one, even if they were at the same level, could compete with them, especially since the warrior who had to face them now was still the one who had not yet reached the stage of receiving Qi.
No one could see Hua Xing's expression at this moment, because he was already wearing the Lin family's special armor, and even his head was wrapped in the armor made of special metal.
Only a small area of the face is exposed, and you can see that Shu Guan's eyes are solemn at this time. However, after all, he is also a strong man at the peak level of the Qi Nai stage. Although he showed strong fear before and constantly used methods to block the two people in front of him, he can
He was able to calm down when death was imminent.
The spiritual energy on the armor lingers endlessly, activating all the rune patterns on the armor. Compared with the armor worn by ordinary warriors of the Lin family before, the color of this one on Shuguan is slightly darker, but it gives people a more...
It is much more solid, and the texture on the surface is more complex.
The first one to arrive was the Ghost Claw, but Shuguan's eyes followed the elegant silver sword light closely. He could tell that the power of that sword was much greater than the Ghost Claw.
"Qiang"
The ghost claws fell, and Shuguan raised his arms without hesitation to greet him. The flood-like spiritual energy on the ghost claws immediately attacked him, but more than half of it was resolved by the rune formation on the armor.
However, the remaining spiritual power and impact force still made Shuguan feel numb in his arms. Fortunately, Shuguan had a special body-refining method, and his physical endurance was far incomparable, so he did not suffer any damage from one blow.
Injuried.
But just as Commander Gui Yun's ghost claws were resisted, the long sword was already drifting towards him. Seeing the long sword getting closer and closer, it was clear that the long sword was coming towards him, but he felt confused.
The feeling of where the target of the opponent's long sword is.
Almost as an instinctive reaction, Shuguan's body flew back violently. However, when he stepped back, he immediately found that the sword also accelerated suddenly and slashed towards his chest.
Seeing this change, Shu Zhan was shocked, and then he gathered countless spiritual energy towards his chest. Although the power of the long sword frightened him, he thought that with the Lin family's special armor, he could cope with it for a while.
With a shrill sound of breaking wind, the long sword fell straight towards Shu Guan's chest. The formations on Shu Guan's chest had already bloomed countless formations before the long sword fell.
There are as many as three floors.
"Click"
Although there was only a crisp sound, the sword had already struck Shuguan directly on his chest. Even though there was a formation blocking him, the opponent was still able to attack his chest, which shocked Shuguan beyond measure.
But the changes that followed made Shuguan's face even more ugly. He saw that the long sword that was slashing at his chest suddenly split into two. One sword continued to slash towards his chest, while the other sword had already been cut down.
Then he raised it violently.
Although the destructive power carried by the long sword could not break through the armor, it was still as if a giant hammer hit the chest directly to Shu Guan.
At this moment, when he subconsciously lowered his head, he saw a sword shadow sweeping towards him from bottom to top. While clenching his teeth, Shu Guan almost used all his strength to move his head back.
Look up.
Suddenly, he felt a cool breeze blowing in front of him, and then there was a slight light on the top of his head. The helmet on his head was immediately separated, split into left and right halves from the top of his head and fell to the ground.
If you look closely, you will find that there is a sharp gap in the front part of the face, and the gap continues to extend, and it turns into a natural crack at the back of the head, which looks like it was separated by the force of the sword.
A line of blood appeared from where the chin was closed, passed upward through the lips, the tip of the nose, and finally reached his forehead. The skin and flesh slowly parted to both sides, revealing the dense white bones underneath.
