Volume 1: Zhao Shanhe Chapter 71 Returning to the Zhao Family Mansion
"I heard that the Zhenshan Sect and the Yuanshan Escort Bureau have sent people to the Three Swords Club to discuss the current matter?"
Ji Yuan suddenly changed the subject and looked at Xu Liuqing, who had a heavy look on his face.
Upon hearing this, the latter immediately nodded and admitted that this was indeed the case.
The people from the two factions also wanted to work with the Three Swordsmen Association to discuss a way to solve the current disaster.
Nowadays, the four gates of the county town are sealed, and only outsiders are allowed to enter, but the people in the city are not allowed to leave the city. People with a discerning eye can naturally see that the person who is secretly planning is about to make a big move.
And what is about to happen will inevitably sweep through the entire Qianyu City. From the traffickers and common people to the wealthy and powerful sects in the city, no one can stay out of this disaster.
"If there are no accidents, the Three Swordsmen will be responsible for the fallen barracks, while the Zhenshan faction and Yuanshan Escort will focus on attacking the county government office and the Chenghuang Temple respectively."
Xu Liuqing pondered for a moment, and then told the articles of association discussed by the three sects in the lobby of the Three Swordsmen Association at this moment.
It can be said that the three most difficult bones in the city are all taken over by the three factions. As for other gangs and forces, large and small, no one cares about them.
Although these forces have a large number of people, their force is not very high. The better ones have one or two warriors who are in the early stages of the Flesh Realm. Most of them are ordinary warriors who have only practiced martial arts for a few years or even ten years, but have not yet taken that step.
Not to mention targeting evil spirits, even ordinary officers, soldiers, and police officers can easily defeat them and cause them to collapse and disperse on their own.
For the three factions, as long as these forces can guard their one-third of an acre of land without causing chaos, it will be the greatest help to the situation in the city.
"The Three Swordsmen Association has the largest number of members and is well-trained. It is indeed the best suited to solve the disaster in the barracks."
Ji Yuan nodded and said: "As for the Zhenshan Sect and the Yuanshan Escort Agency, one has more masters and the other often travels around the world and knows some ways to deal with the gods of mountains and rivers."
Although the three factions are fighting on their own, the allocation of opponents is quite reasonable, and they can respond to their own strengths and maximize their advantages.
However, Xu Liuqing, as the third leader of the Three Swordsmen Association, stayed here to accompany them and did not participate in such an important discussion, which made Ji Yuan a little confused.
"The enemies each of the three factions need to deal with this morning have already been determined by each other."
Seemingly seeing the doubts in his heart, Xu Liuqing spoke up to explain: "The content of the discussion at this moment is just how to distribute the benefits in the face of Qianyu City's future situation after this disaster, and how to distribute the benefits among the three factions.
How can we help each other and prevent any accountability from the imperial court?"
Having said this, he couldn't help but shake his head, as if he was not interested in these things, and even vaguely bored.
Hearing this, several people present couldn't help but frown, but they didn't say anything more. Although it was a bit inappropriate to say this at this time, people have complicated thoughts, and it's no wonder those people made plans in advance.
"In this way, only Baiyun Temple and Zhao Family are left."
Shen Lang suddenly spoke out, and at the same time glanced at Hui Xin beside him without leaving any trace.
After hearing the sound, the latter subconsciously raised his head, the light in his eyes dim and complicated.
When it comes to Baiyun Temple, he doesn't know how to face it. There is not only the anger of being betrayed by his master, but also the hatred of the other party's willingness to fall into the evil way, as well as some complicated emotions that cannot be explained.
"You and fellow Taoist Zhao go to Baiyun Temple, while Huixin and I go to deal with the old locust tree in the Zhao family."
As Ji Yuan spoke, he took a deep look at Huixin.
None of the people present had any objections to this arrangement. Now that the crisis in Qianyu City is lurking, it may break out completely at any time. At that time, it will not be a matter of one or two people, but will involve hundreds of thousands of people in the entire county.
At this time, it is no longer possible to think about the matter of protecting yourself wisely. If you leave everything to others and retain your own strength, no one will be able to escape this disaster at the final moment of reckoning.
After a moment or so, everyone left the headquarters of the Three Swordsmen Association and headed towards their respective goals.
Among them, Zhao Yuansong took four junior brothers and sisters, Shen Lang and seven or eight agents to Baiyun Temple. There were dozens of members of the Three Swordsmen Society there who could provide some assistance.
On the other side, Ji Yuan and Huixin, together with five guards from the Zhao family and Su Hongzhu, went to the Zhao family again.
Even they themselves did not expect that they had just escaped from it a few hours ago, and now they would be back in danger again. However, Qianyu City was now in danger, affecting everyone in the city.
Therefore, even if they knew that this trip was dangerous, they had to go there even if it was just for their own lives.
When the scorching sun was high and it was almost noon, the group of people had arrived outside the Zhao family's residence.
Even in the day when the yang energy is at its peak, the Zhao family's mansion is still shrouded in a gloomy and cold atmosphere, giving people a feeling of being intimidating and subconsciously unwilling to get close.
If you just stare at it for a moment, you will even feel fear, as if what you are seeing is a dragon's pond and a tiger's den.
In fact, the danger in the Zhao family's mansion today is much greater than an ordinary tiger's den. Even if a second-level monk or martial artist enters, they dare not say that they will definitely be able to escape unscathed.
"How does it feel?"
Standing outside the mansion, Ji Yuan turned around and looked at the young woman beside him.
Hearing this, Su Hongzhu closed her eyes and felt it for a while, then opened her eyes and said: "It's very strong!"
She stared at the mansion in front of her, as if she could see through the high walls and houses to the old locust tree entrenched among them.
"Although it is also the first time to enter the second realm, its accumulation of mana is equivalent to five or six of me, and it contains unimaginable vitality."
Su Hongzhurao was confident in her own strength, and she couldn't help but look solemn at this moment.
In her perception, the old locust tree was like a blazing fire in the dark night, and she was just a small bonfire.
Ji Yuan nodded lightly after hearing this. The old locust tree has lived for hundreds of years, and the vitality it has cultivated is naturally unimaginable. What's more, the other party also slaughtered more than a hundred people in the Zhao family and absorbed these.
human life.
However, strong vitality does not mean that strength will be equally strong. There is not much correlation between the two existences.
It's just that compared to other existences, this old locust tree may be more difficult to kill.
"When you enter the mansion later, feel free to do whatever you want. If there are no accidents, we will not take action."
After thinking about it, Ji Yuan added: "First of all, our deal requires you to kill a second-level enemy alone. In addition, Huixin and I can indeed restrain the old locust tree, but we will also do the same to you.
have an impact.”
He is a Taoist descendant, while Hui Xin is a Buddhist monk. Once the two of them use their methods, it is not just as simple as restraining the old locust tree, but even Su Hongzhu will be affected. After all, her heels are also ghosts.
As for the several Zhao family guards, their own combat power is not high. Except for the middle-aged guard who is in the middle stage of the skin and flesh realm, only the young guard Liao Qiming has the strength of the early stage of the flesh and blood realm. The rest are just ordinary warriors.
And the main purpose of bringing them here was just in case, and in addition, several of them had been working as nursing homes for the Zhao family for at least several years, so they must know more about this place than they did.
Su Hongzhu nodded slightly, then retracted her gaze towards the mansion, and turned to look at the little Taoist priest beside her, as if waiting for him to give orders.
Seeing this, Ji Yuan did not hesitate, nodded lightly and said: "Let's go and do it."
Because the Zhao family's residence is located in a strange location, there are no ordinary people living around it. Most of them are mansions purchased by the rich and powerful in the city. They are not usually occupied, let alone occupied by servants.
So naturally there is no need to worry that Su Hongzhu's sudden urge to fight will affect the surrounding people regardless of the consequences.
When she saw Ji Yuan nodding, a red light flashed in her eyes, and then she waved her hand gently, and suddenly the ghostly magic power turned into a streak and shot out.
Boom!!!
Under the impact of this magical force, the entire gate of the Zhao family residence suddenly collapsed, and countless dust stirred up, and then dissipated with the roar of the wind, leaving only broken bricks and rubble on the ground.
Under Su Hongzhu's control, the two young men and women stepped forward at the same time and rushed towards the mansion.
As for herself, she walked slowly and leisurely, even in the mood to admire the courtyard decorations along the way and the construction style of the houses in the house.
It's as if she didn't come here to kill powerful enemies in the same realm, but more like a wealthy woman who came here to choose and buy a mansion.
Ji Yuan and others looked at each other and did not immediately follow each other's footsteps. Instead, they waited until they were more than ten feet away before slowly following behind.
If nothing unexpected happens, their purpose of coming here will only serve as a supervisor and witness. In theory, there should be few opportunities for anyone to take action.
Not long after, the group of people had reached the depths of the mansion, but before they even got close to the courtyard where the main house was located, the sound of a fierce fight could be heard from far away.
After pondering for a while, several people jumped up to the roof and looked at the house from a distance.
At this moment, the man and woman who had been transformed into puppets were already entangled with the roots of the old locust tree. A sword light could be seen from far away, cutting off many roots as thick as forearms.
Compared with their initial state of enlightenment during their lifetime, although after being refined into puppets, the energy in their bodies has been reduced, and their movements are far less agile than when they were alive.
But in terms of killing power, it has not only increased by several percent, but has doubled several times, and is already comparable to the monks in the late stage of enlightenment.
In addition, after becoming a puppet, although his mind has been erased, he is no longer afraid of life, death and pain, and fighting is enough to give any enemy a headache.
Just like this, even though the two of them were occasionally hit by the roots of the old locust tree or the green locust leaves, and blood flowed from the wounds, their movements were not affected at all, and they were still as sharp as if they were not injured.
If it were an ordinary person, I'm afraid it would be affected to some extent and it would be difficult to maintain the peak condition.
On the roof, Ji Yuan suddenly sighed silently after watching it for a moment.
In front of my eyes, I seemed to be seeing the scene where I saw each other for the first time on a remote mountain path a few nights ago.
At that time, the two of them were following their senior brother Li Mufeng and were about to go to Luohun Slope to look for opportunities. They happened to meet on a mountain path. These people were born on the spot and wanted to force him to be a pathfinder chess piece.
However, fate came together later and Ji Yuan finally left Luohun Slope safe and sound, while Li Mufeng and his junior brothers and sisters stayed there forever.
At that time, Ji Yuan was still a little confused, thinking that the reason why he did not see the man and woman was that the other man chose to escape after realizing the danger, but he never thought that he had been turned into a puppet.
As for the encounter between the two of them, he could only sigh with emotion at most, but he did not feel sorry for the other person or express any other emotions.
Judging from the demeanor of these two people at that time, there must be a lot of things like forcing others to use them as pathfinding chess pieces, or taking advantage of others. Since you have harmful intentions, you must be aware that one day the boat will capsize. This chapter has been completed!
