Escape did not delay killing, the two brothers stood shoulder to shoulder, and they did not show any martial ethics. They just raised their hands and stabbed each other indiscriminately.
Poor Lu Pingkong was so exhausted that he couldn't fight back in time, so he died a miserable death.
The flaming hall was full of broken tiles and ruins, but neither Xue Zongwu nor the leader of the black armor made a sound after the explosion. There was also a loyal bodyguard who carefully avoided the entanglement of the white fire and looked for the master everywhere.
's whereabouts.
He saw a figure similar to Xue Zongwu emerging from the smoke in front of him. He was about to approach, but the figure stepped forward in two steps. The light armor was so black that it shone in the light of the fire - this was not the master at all.
In just two rounds, his opponent pinched his neck and broke it with a snap.
Under the firelight, the shadow of the man in black armor dragged far back, dancing on the ruins.
At the same time that the personal guard died, the shadow of the man in black armor suddenly stopped moving.
The hall was on fire, and the flames were in various shapes. However, He Lingchuan's shadow on the ground seemed to be firmly stuck to the ground with glue, and his own movements were completely frozen.
The body and shadow were frozen, unable to move at all.
The process was also very short, lasting less than one and a half breaths.
But the billowing smoke behind him was suddenly disturbed, and Xue Zongwu appeared out of thin air here!
As soon as he landed in the main hall, he lurked and waited for the opportunity, but the other party was also very cunning and refused to show up.
The surrounding smoke and dust were billowing, and the fire was soaring into the sky. For the two of them, it was the most suitable environment for hiding.
Others couldn't stand the burning of the white fire and had to run away early, but the two of them had no such trouble. Xue Zongwu was protected by the squatting beast, but the black-armored man was not afraid of the flames at all!
As for the annoying smoke, both of them could ignore it for a short time.
When the personal guards came to find him, the black-armored man couldn't help but kill the personal guards, but his whereabouts were also discovered by Xue Zongwu.
Xue Zongwu has been waiting for this opportunity. He has a magical power called "catching wind and shadow", which can suppress the enemy by fixing his shadow.
This magical power is extremely difficult to learn. He has practiced it for more than ten years, and he can freeze his opponent for about one breath at most.
But for experts, this is enough.
The weapon he used to sneak attack He Lingchuan was not a purple gold hammer, but a long knife. The blade was slightly black and matte. It did not have the brilliance of autumn water, and it did not even make the sound of wind. However, the burning short log that fell in mid-air was still...
If you don't touch it, cut it into two parts.
The black blade passed by the back of the black-armored man's neck, and it was withdrawn as soon as it came out, as fast as it had never existed before.
But Xue Zongwu really hit it out, and the feeling of cutting into the flesh was very real. The opponent's armor looked very evil at first glance, so to be on the safe side, it was safer for him to wipe his throat with the knife.
Done?
He killed the "Nine Nether Emperor", the nosy and pretentious man in black armor?
The opponent's head was chopped off, his body shook a few times, and he fell to the ground.
A small handful of white fire slipped along the crack in the ground, catching it and burning it.
The body was not even burned and turned black after just two and a half strokes.
"Emperor Jiuyou?" Xue Zongwu spit on the ground, "Nothing more than that!"
But he was really relieved in his heart. This weirdo couldn't be killed without a trick.
The black-armored man's head rolled to the ground about a foot away, his mask fell off, and blood flowed all over the ground.
He was still somewhat curious, so he walked over and picked up the head, wanting to see the true face of this so-called "legend".
This face is unexpectedly young, probably no more than twenty years old.
Xue Zongwu felt at one glance that this face looked familiar?
Where have you seen it before? Where?
While he was thinking, a warning sign suddenly occurred in his mind:
Danger!
Then he heard the sound of a keyboard being pressed.
A sleeve arrow pierced the thick fog and flew from the side, fast, steady and accurate.
Then a knife came out of the rubble and stabbed him in the waist and abdomen.
If this were to hit him, Xue Zongwu would immediately turn into a skewer of human flesh.
At the critical moment, he gave priority to turning around to block the knife. The arrow in his sleeve couldn't be avoided, so he had to tilt his head to try to reduce the damage.
With Yuanli protecting him, these injuries are not fatal to him.
Even though he was blocking with both hands, his opponent's strength still made his arms sink, and he had to exert force on his waist and legs before he could barely stand still.
As for the sleeve arrow, it punched a hole in the left side of his neck without mercy, moving forward and out.
The blood from his neck gurgled out all at once, but it wasn't a spurt - he deliberately avoided the carotid arteries.
At the same time, a protective magical weapon on his body broke into pieces with a "pop" sound.
As soon as the hand was handed over, Xue Zongwu also saw clearly who the sneak attacker was:
Another man in black armor!
Same height, same armor, same dragon head mask, even the long sword looks like the same one.
No, this is the "Nine Nether Emperor".
He just beheaded a fake.
Xue Zongwu didn't find it creepy. He himself had just used the art of avatar, so why is it strange that others are also proficient in this magical power?
But the way he looked at the man in black armor was particularly strange: "You, you are looking up to..."
He finally remembered where he had seen this person!
By the river and on the pier, this man was the leader of the Yangshan Chamber of Commerce. The king also asked him to sell red valley horses to this man named He!
Damn it, how could this so-called black-armored leader who acts for heaven be the leader of a chamber of commerce?!
This man’s motives are suspicious and his intentions are to be punished!
Xue Zongwu's voice was a little broken because of the leakage from his neck, so he couldn't shout loudly.
Before he finished speaking, there was a muffled sound, and the other half of the beams were burned and fell down, covering up what he said:
"...You are the leader of the Yangshan Chamber of Commerce!"
The current environment in the main hall cannot tolerate living creatures at all. The ground is covered with flames. The most terrifying thing is the choking smoke. Two more puffs can cause people to fall into coma.
Several magic weapons on Xue Zongwu's body were activated to filter out the toxicity of the smoke. But he could only activate his inner breath because he had to resist the urge to cough every time he took a breath.
There was a hole in his neck, and he sealed the surrounding acupuncture points, but coughing hard would definitely cause blood to surge.
In such a harsh environment, both sides were fighting for their lives. Although Xue Zongwu was injured, the wound on his neck was not fatal. He could still fight by using his internal energy.
As time went by, he felt that his physical strength and real power were also draining rapidly, as if there was a bottomless pit around his neck.
The most terrifying thing is that the ghosts that originally hovered around He Lingchuan no longer looked like harmless humans and animals. They showed their ferocious faces and rushed towards Xue Zongwu's wounds crazily!
After touching the wound, they gnawed away at the flesh and blood and penetrated into the meridians, causing him unparalleled pain.
The pain was like soaking every nerve in boiling water, causing the veins on his forehead to twitch.
Not to mention that Xue Zongwu was fighting and couldn't take action. Even if he tried to stop him, he found that these things couldn't stop him!
Yuanli has no effect on them.
This is weird. It is common knowledge that Yuanli can destroy evil spirits. Why can't it destroy these ghosts?
