Although the incident in the west part of Kuocheng occurred at ten o'clock in the night, the commotion caused by it was not small.
Not to mention all the forces, even ordinary people were alarmed. After all, the momentum of the Raging Waves Formation alone was already astonishing, not to mention that the painted shapes and ghost clouds later triggered the city defense formation.
Anyone within the vast city will naturally feel the changes in the formation that protects the city, especially the four "small flames" that dropped from the final formation, igniting the terrifying raging flames.
When the changes first appeared in Xicheng, the warriors of the Su family had already noticed it, but then those who were exploring nearby disappeared one after another.
Given the conflict between the Guihua family and the Suwang family, of course they would not hold anything back when they meet each other. Especially the actions prepared by the Guihua family have their own purpose to target the Suwang family, so it is even less likely to happen.
It will give the Su family warriors a chance to go back and report the news.
As a result, the Gui family made a mistake and thwarted the Su and Wang families' intention to take immediate action.
Not only did the Su and Wang families have nothing to do with the Lin family, as the ghost painter had guessed, the Su family did not even know that there was such a group of people in the western area of the city.
Naturally, the Suwang family would not follow the expectations of the Guihua family and immediately come to the rescue after the accident happened. The spies killed by the Guihua family made the Suwang family more cautious.
He didn't dare to send warriors to the west of the city easily, for fear of falling into the scheme of the Guihua family.
Fortunately, the original misunderstanding between the Guihua and the Guihua families allowed them to get rid of the spies from the Su and Wang families first. Otherwise, if Su Jian and Wang Xiao had known about the situation here earlier, they would have definitely seized the opportunity to kill the Guihua and Guihua families.
A stab in the back.
These various changes were not anticipated by Duan Yueyao, who originally formulated the strategy, and naturally he could not have expected the subsequent development of the matter.
It wasn't until the battle in the west of the city came to an end, that is, after the city protection formation destroyed the Raging Waves Formation and the Guihua family launched an encirclement and suppression campaign with all their strength, that they completely gave up control of the outside world.
The third commander, Su Qiang, led his men and quietly approached from the outside. Although the distance was a bit far, the flames illuminated the surrounding area like daylight, and the general situation could still be seen clearly. Especially the damage done to the Guihua family and another group of warriors.
, was also seen in the eyes.
Su Qiang, the third leader of the Su family, was naturally different from ordinary warriors. He had already seen the fighter plane, so he immediately ordered one of his subordinates to report the situation back to the mansion first, while he stayed to investigate in depth.
Upon receiving the news reported by Su Qiang, Su Jian immediately affirmed that this was the biggest opportunity for the Su and Wang families. If they could seize the opportunity firmly, the two families would have no problem in completely controlling Kuocheng.
With a plan in mind, Su Jian immediately said in a deep voice: "Second sister, go to the Wang family immediately, invite the commander-in-chief Wang Xiao over, and tell him that I have something important to discuss.
It’s not appropriate, it’s not appropriate, we can’t waste time, I’d better go there myself.”
Before he finished speaking, Su Jian immediately shook his head in denial, and then walked towards the main entrance. But before he reached the main entrance, he saw the warriors in front of the door bowing and saluting one by one, and one wearing a beast
The middle-aged man in a big leather cloak entered the house with a swift and tiger pace.
The man was Wang Xiao, the leader of the Wang family. The two families worked together and were very familiar with each other. The guard at the door didn't even ask a single word.
Stepping through the gate of the mansion, Wang Xiao already said to himself: "Brother, there is no need to look for me. I will look for him myself first. Although the situation in the west of the city is not clear yet, I also think it is an opportunity. Everyone will decide whether
Are you taking action?"
Obviously Wang Xiao heard Su Jian's last words, but he only heard the back and not the front. Su Ming had already rushed to speak and recounted what the family warrior had just reported when he came back.
Listening to Su Ming's story, Wang Xiao's face became more and more excited, but he was as cautious as Su Jian. Finally, he couldn't help but ask: "Have these news been confirmed? If it is true, then we
You really can’t miss this opportunity.”
Nodding, Su Jian understood what the other party meant. He pointed at the warrior who came back to report the news and said: "This person is one of my third brother's personal followers, and my third brother Su Qiang is in the west of the city at this time. News will be sent one after another.
reply, so the authenticity of these messages can still be guaranteed.”
"Snapped"
Clapping his hands hard, Wang Xiao said loudly and excitedly: "That's it. My warriors from the Wang family have been preparing for the past two days. Now I can take action with just one order."
Su Jian, who also showed the same joyful expression, also showed the same smile, and said slowly: "Our Su family is also well prepared and can set off anytime and anywhere. It seems that this is God's favor to our family. Gui Hua's family is so good.
Already, there is no place for them in the imperial capital, and now in this remote Kuocheng, they are still stinky rats with no place to stay."
Su Jian and Wang Xiao laughed at the same time, and Su Ming on the side was also happy, but she did not stay to talk, but went down to rectify the troops and prepare to start the operation together with the Wang family.
…
The young man was dressed in coarse linen clothes, with a white scarf tying his hair on top of his head. He was not handsome in appearance, but with his burly figure, he was quite heroic.
The people present were not familiar with the young man. Seeing that the young man had come here all the way, it was obvious that he had little to do with the young man. Guiyun, Hua Xing and others had already jumped over the young man and landed on the two old men behind him.
Everyone else felt that the old man and the young man looked a little strange. Instead, it was Gui Suo who was standing at the back. His expression moved and he said: "It's Mr. Kang, the chief steward of the City Lord's Mansion. Why, your Lord City Lord has sent you to see him."
Isn’t our excitement great?”
Hearing Gui Suo reveal the other party's identity, the faces of the other people suddenly became gloomy, and a hint of cold murderous intent gradually emerged from their auras.
Although the two old men Kang and Zhao are stewards of the City Lord's Mansion, in fact only the old man surnamed Kang occasionally appears outside. Most matters in the City Lord's Mansion are resolved by the City Lord Guo Tong himself.
The reason why it is so special is mainly because the two old men Zhao Kang each have a strong enemy in Xuanwu. In order not to cause trouble for themselves and Guo Tong, the two stewards are very mysterious. Instead, they are the city lords.
Guo usually appears in front of people.
Hearing that the people in front of them belonged to the city lord's palace, Hua Xing and Gui Yun could no longer control their anger. However, seeing the two old men following behind the young man, they wanted to see what tricks these people were going to play.
Faced with this tense posture, the old man surnamed Zhao showed a worried look and looked at the old man surnamed Kang. However, the old man surnamed Kang's expression did not change at all. He raised his hand and pointed at the young man and said: "This is the only son of Lord Guo.
…,His name is Guo Xiao.”
When introducing the young man, the old man surnamed Kang raised his eyes and observed for a while, paying special attention to the changes in the young man's expression at this moment. He also paid attention to the young man's subtle movements and spiritual energy fluctuations.
Long before they came here, the two old men Zhao Kang had already guessed the situation before them. However, the people who finally came here to see the ghost painting were not the best advice given by the two old men, but the result of the young man's stubborn choice.
Since it was the young man's idea, the two old men also argued with him, but in the end the young man was unswerving, and this was the scene where the two old men accompanied the young man.
Although they agreed with the young man's decision, the two old men Kang and Zhao did not understand the young man well enough. This situation was the best occasion to see a person clearly.
There are usually two situations where a person is most likely to reveal his or her true nature. One is in front of the person he is most familiar with and trusts, even when he is drunk and forgetful, he will let go of everything and completely expose his true side.
Another situation is that when faced with a life or death situation, some people may be unable to control their interests. But almost all people are more likely to reveal their true selves when facing a life or death situation.
At this moment, the young man's face was full of calm. There was neither fear nor anger in his eyes, nor was there any desire to please. Instead, his eyes seemed to be looking at the air.
His heart was calm, his movements were not stiff at all, and there was no special fluctuation in the spiritual energy in his body. He just looked at the people opposite him quietly.
Staring at the young man coldly, Guiyun spoke first. It seemed that because the Gui family had suffered such a heavy loss this time, he could no longer suppress his anger.
"Everything right now is the fault of your city lord's palace, which led to the current situation. If it weren't for Guo Tong, our two families would have suffered such heavy losses today. Now that our two families have suffered such serious losses, we plan to use a son to make another
Preparing to settle the matter at the expense of two old lives... is simply ridiculous!"
Guiyun's words were not merciful at all, and even seemed a bit petty. Normally, he would never be like this. But today, the Gui family suffered heavy losses. No wonder the leader of the Gui family would be like this.
After hearing these words, a trace of anger quietly flashed in the young man's eyes, but this change was very subtle, and only the old man named Kang on the side noticed it. Seeing that the young man beside him could suppress his emotions to such an extent, Kang
Although the old man didn't say anything on the surface, he was secretly giving a thumbs up.
The young man's eyes slowly swept over the people in front of him, and then slowly fell on his own hands. They were wrapped in a whole piece of white cloth. With the cultivation level of the people in front of him, he could naturally detect it from a distance.
A corpse.
The young man gently placed the body on the ground, raised his hand and gently dusted it off, then picked up a corner of the cloth and slowly opened it with his hands.
It didn't have many twists, so the head of the corpse was exposed after a few times. That is, when everyone present saw the head of the corpse, everyone showed a look of astonishment.
Guisuo was the first to exclaim: "It's Guo Tong, he, he is dead!"
Taking a deep breath, the young man looked at Guo Tong with soft eyes and said slowly: "This is the City Lord Guo Tong you are looking for, and I will be the next City Lord Kuocheng. If you want to vent your anger,
Then please take action.
However, if you want to save the situation, now... you have no choice but to join forces!"
