Chapter 545: Assassination at the Grave

Purple soil has extraordinary significance to the people of Nanhuangzhou.

Especially for those scavengers and ordinary people, purple soil symbolizes imperial power and dignitaries. Anyone who comes out of purple soil seems to have a halo and is superior to others.

Their clothes always seem to be gorgeous, and their bodies always seem to be neat.

Make people yearn for it.

Therefore, being able to enter the Purple Land and live there is the lifelong dream and pursuit of many people in Nanhuang Continent.

But unfortunately, there are only a handful of people who can actually do it.

All these statuses are due to the fact that Zi Tu was the capital of the last human nation in Nanhuang Continent.

Although the country with the same name as the Ziqing Kingdom in the human history of Wanggu Continent has been destroyed, the eight major families in it continue to this day.

They represent the local power of Nanhuang Continent. They control the government and command the whole continent. At the same time, they also have an old relationship with Yanhuang and are protected by Yanhuang.

They often never leave Nanhuang Continent throughout their lives, and others are unwilling to provoke them.

From their point of view, in the entire Nanhuang Continent, whether it was the Seven Blood Pupils, the Li Tujiao, or the mysterious Word of Truth, in the final analysis, they were all outsiders.

So closedness, old-fashioned, and arrogance became the labels of Zitu.

But today, ordinary people living in the purple soil saw an incredible scene in the morning light.

All eight major families were dispatched.

The direct clan members, all dressed in gorgeous clothes, stood in a long queue outside the east gate of Zitu.

Everyone looked respectful.

The patriarchs of the eight major families were at the front, with solemn looks on their faces. They were also surrounded by elders from each family.

Everyone is looking towards the eastern sky.

Even some old guys from various ethnic groups who were old and passed on the magic treasures in their bodies to future generations. Their own cultivation levels had dropped sharply and they were so weak that they even needed help when walking. They all appeared on the city wall, looking at the sky.

Wait silently.

This scene is extremely rare in Zitu, where everything is about class.

In fact, there is basically nothing going on in Nanhuang Continent that would allow the eight closed Zitu families to all attend in such a grand manner. Judging from their appearance, this is just a welcome.

Therefore, this scene in the early morning gave rise to countless speculations about the world of Zi Tu.

Outside the east gate, among the crowd of eight major families, there were two people standing at the head of the eight major families.

Their seniority meant that they were not allowed to stand here originally, but today, they are allowed to appear here.

As a result, a lot of eyes were focused on them, and even the heads of the clans glanced at them from time to time.

These two people are a man and a woman.

The man is handsome, with a gloomy look between his brows.

The woman is beautiful, her face is a little nervous and contains expectations, but her expression is still a little unbelievable.

It is Chen Feiyuan and Tingyu.

A month ago, what happened in Fenghai County was so shocking that everyone in Nanhuang Continent heard about it. As the eight major Zitu families, they naturally investigated the matter more clearly.

They knew that the identity and status of the Shu Ling named Xu Qing skyrocketed with the end of the County Capital Revolution.

They even investigated Xu Qing's origin and found out that he was from Nanhuangzhou.

In this way, after being informed that Xu Qing was coming, the eight major families paid great attention to it and welcomed him this time.

Although they are closed and old-fashioned, it depends on who they are facing. If they are in Nanhuang Continent, they can naturally be arrogant, but they don't dare to deal with Fenghai County.

"Feiyuan, do you think Xu Qing...is he still the same person as before?" Tingyu said softly, feeling a little uneasy in her heart.

Master Bai's death was a huge blow to Tingyu.

As she grew up, her personality also changed and she became much weaker. If it weren't for Chen Feiyuan's protection, she would easily be regarded as a tool for marriage in Zi Tu's family.

"Tingyu, forget what happened when you were a child."

Chen Feiyuan spoke calmly, and his voice instinctively contained gloom. This was not because he meant it, but because he lived in a cunning family and had developed a habit in the struggle for family power.

"If Xu Qing is nostalgic, it will be better. If his personality changes, it is normal."

"Especially this time, informing him of his arrival in advance...this matter has profound meaning."

Chen Feiyuan's words made Tingyu silent.

In this way, time passed, and half an hour later, there was a loud sound that resounded through the sky. This sound reverberated in all directions, causing the clouds and mist in the sky to roll.

Qingqin's huge body covered the sky, and when the shadow fell over the purple earth, Da Yi's figure appeared in the sky, roaring towards him.

The momentum was like a rainbow, raising strong winds and blowing the clothes of the monks from the eight major families on the ground. Everyone's expressions suddenly became solemn, and they all raised their heads and looked at the sky.

Xu Qing's figure, together with Taoist Sinan, walked out of the big wing and arrived in front of the Zitu East Gate. All the eight major families clasped their fists and bowed.

"I've met Xu Shuling, Deacon Sinan."

There are also bells ringing in the purple soil, the same twenty-one ringing, echoing in all directions to show the solemnity.

Xu Qing always treated other people's courtesy in the same way, so he returned the courtesy to the eight major families. After being polite, he looked at Chen Feiyuan and Tingyu, with a smile on his face, and said softly.

"Senior Brother Feiyuan, Senior Sister Tingyu."

Tingyu was very excited, while Chen Feiyuan was expressionless, but his eyes looked around many times, implying vigilance.

Xu Qing noticed that when he was thoughtful, the eight major families warmly invited him. After Xu Qing pondered, he stepped into the purple soil.

In response to Xu Qing's arrival, the eight major families originally held a grand banquet, but Xu Qing declined because he wanted to pay homage to Master Bai.

The heads of the eight major families were naturally aware of the relationship between Xu Qing and Master Bai. They also saw Xu Qing's desire to reconnect with old friends, so they all agreed.

The head of the Bai family did not mention that Master Bai was buried in the cemetery, while the head of the Chen family spoke with a smile with some deep meaning in his eyes.

"In this case, I will not disturb Xu Shuling. I will be accompanied by my youngest son Feiyuan. Feiyuan will also be responsible for the security of Xu Shuling's visit this time."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Xu Qing glanced at him, nodded, and after thanking him with fists, the eight major families left each other, except for Chen Feiyuan and Tingyu.

Seeing everyone leaving, Tingyu couldn't bear it anymore and walked a few steps quickly to Xu Qing.

Looking at the figure in her memory, she vaguely seemed to see the dirty child who was eavesdropping on the grass outside the tent in the scavenger camp.

Time flies, seven years have passed, and she has never seen Xu Qing again since their separation. When the teacher was killed, although the other party came, she only saw his back.

Afterwards, Chen Feiyuan informed her about Xu Qing's revenge for her teacher.

"Junior brother..."

Tingyu's eyes turned red.

"Senior Sister Tingyu." Xu Qing also had troubles in his heart. Although the relationship between Tingyu and Chen Feiyuan was not as good as that of the captain, the innocence between them when they were children without any exchange of interest was deep in Xu Qing's memory.

Although that time was not long, it was very precious to Xu Qing.

At this moment, with emotion, Xu Qing's eyes fell on Chen Feiyuan. The other person's cultivation was obviously just foundation building, but his aura was very strange, as if there was a storm in his body.

This reminded Xu Qing of the scene he saw with the help of the magic weapon of Seven Blood Pupils, where Chen Feiyuan had a treasure in his body.

Ziqing bloodline can coexist with magic weapons. This ability has been plundered by the eight major families over the years and has become his own talent.

"Senior Brother Feiyuan, what's inside your body..." Xu Qing looked at Chen Feiyuan and spoke softly.

But before he could finish speaking, Chen Feiyuan looked solemn and bowed with his fists clasped.

"I met Xu Shuling."

After Xu Qing finished speaking, Chen Feiyuan's performance and the previous scene in front of the east gate made Xu Qing suspicious, so he turned to look at Taoist Sinan aside.

Taoist Sinan was silent for a few breaths and then spoke in a low voice.

"This is something arranged by Marquis Yao. All arrangements have been prepared and completed, and there will be no obstruction."

Xu Qing was silent.

This time he came to Zitu without informing him in advance. The appearance of the eight major families of Zitu made Xu Qing have some suspicions in his heart. Coupled with Chen Feiyuan's vigilance towards everyone, Xu Qing understood everything.

Yao Hou must be fishing.

Just like when the master took him out and hid in the dark, attracting people who were greedy for life, now that Fenghai County has entered a stable stage, there are still many young people hiding in the dark.

Some ethnic groups with ulterior motives do not want to see a stable trend in Fenghai County. There may even be remnants of Zhuzhao, especially the Seventh Prince, who have to be on guard.

Xu Qing's identity is very important at this time. Once he falls, Fenghai County, which is now gradually becoming stable, will be in trouble again.

But there is no way to guard against thieves for a thousand days, so Yao Hou wanted to expel all those with evil intentions in Fenghai County at once. At this time, Xu Qing's outing naturally became the focus.

Xu Qing had no expression on his face, glanced in the direction of the county capital, and said nothing.

Chen Feiyuan on the side, listening to the conversation between the two, his expression softened. He originally thought that this was Xu Qing's arrangement, and the fact that he was playing games in front of the teacher's grave was the reason why he was disgusted at first.

As for Tingyu, she was far inferior to Chen Feiyuan and Xu Qing in terms of scheming, so she did not react to the misunderstanding between them at all and resolved the misunderstanding in just a few words.

But she also saw that Chen Feiyuan was a little distant from Xu Qing, so she stepped forward and grabbed Chen Feiyuan, and then Xu Qing, and forced them together, and then a smile appeared on her face.

"Chen Feiyuan, don't think that you can disobey your senior sister when you grow up. And Xu Qing, Chen Feiyuan looks cold on the surface, but in fact he is very concerned about your affairs in the county capital. The more he grows up, the more

It’s because I don’t like to express what’s on my mind.”

Chen Feiyuan coughed.

Xu Qing laughed when he heard this.

The three of them looked at each other, as if they were back in the tent at the scavenger camp again, sitting together and listening to Master Bai's lecture.

After a while, they walked to the cemetery together.

Taoist Sinan was a few steps behind and did not get closer. He looked at the figures of the three young people in front of him and felt deep in his heart, thinking of his junior brother.

"I still need to persuade you again. Don't covet other people's blood and bring disaster to yourself."

At this moment, it is already noon. Although it is winter, the sky is clear today. Although there are clouds and fog, there are only a few floating in the low sky.

The wind was not that cold, and the lukewarm sunshine fell on Xu Qing and the three of them, accompanying them to the cemetery.

This place has been under martial law and is surrounded by guards from the eight major families. During Xu Qing's visit, they will be responsible for security under Chen Feiyuan's orders.

There is never a shortage of incense and flowers in front of Master Bai's grave. Chen Feiyuan and Tingyu, as well as people who have brought blessings to him in his life, will often come to pay their respects.

Looking at the tombstone, Master Bai's voice and appearance appeared in Xu Qing's mind. He picked up the incense stick handed over by Tingyu, lit it while shaking it, placed it in front of and behind the tomb, knelt down and kowtowed respectfully.

Parents give body and soul, impart karma and create life, so teachers and parents are both greater than heaven.

Master Qi is like this, Master Bai is like this too.

Xu Qing understood this truth when he was a child. He understood that in this troubled world, those who are willing to impart knowledge will have eternal kindness.

But at the moment Xu Qing kowtowed, the few clouds floating in the sky suddenly flickered. No murderous intention broke out in advance, and no chill was revealed in advance.

These clouds suddenly changed, forming a huge cloud palm, which quickly pressed towards Xu Qing in front of the tomb on the ground.

The speed was so fast and the appearance was sudden, as if it had been ambush here for a long time in advance, making it difficult for people to guard against it. The power of returning to the void exploded in the palm of the cloud and mist, with the intention of annihilation, and it was about to fall.

But around him, nine figures suddenly appeared.

The patriarchs of the eight major families who had left before appeared out of thin air, exuding the fluctuations of spiritual cultivation. Among them was a white-haired old man, whose whole body exuded the aura of returning to the void, and went straight to Yunwu's palm.

This old man is the recognized ancestor of the eight major families of Zi Tu, and he is also the only Guixu.

During the roar, the two sides touched, and when the fingers of the cloud rolled back, the Purple Earth Ancestor's eyes flashed brightly, and he rushed out.

As for the patriarchs of the eight major families, they quickly fell down and helped Xu Qing resolve the aftermath of the mist palm in mid-air.

Everything is resolved instantly.

Xu Qing looked as usual from beginning to end, and still kowtowed.

Tingyu was shocked by this scene and breathed rapidly. Next to Chen Feiyuan, his expression did not change at all. This was something he had applied to the senior management of Zitu in advance for security reasons.

But at this moment, when Xu Qing kowtowed and touched the ground with his forehead, mist suddenly rose from the ground around him, and the figures of the Yanmiao tribe emerged from the inside in an instant and headed straight for Xu Qing.

Looking at it, there are so many of them, hundreds of them, and each of them has a good level of cultivation. They are also good at assassination and extremely fast.

But before they could get close to Xu Qing, the sky twisted, and a large seal suddenly transformed, emitting terrifying waves.

It was the fusion of the magic weapons of the eight major families of Zi Tu to form a more powerful treasure. Although it was not as good as Taboo, it was at the pinnacle of the level of magic weapons.

After Chen Feiyuan crushed a jade slip, it appeared instantly and shook the ground violently.

Xu Qing was unscathed, but the Yanmiao tribe that appeared around them all screamed and collapsed one after another.

There was no end. Almost at the moment when the magic seal appeared, the third wave of assassinations broke out. This time, the assassins came not from the sky and the earth, but from the wind.

The wind blowing from all directions directly transformed into thousands of figures. They all looked like the Yanmiao clan, but their auras were different from the Yanmiao clan. Obviously the Yanmiao identity was just a cover-up, and their true ethnic group was hidden.

stand up.

The moment this moment appeared, the great wings of the sky roared, and thousands of sword-wielders within them descended together, and the fighting started surrounding the cemetery in an instant.

At the same time, there was a black lightning in the sky, suddenly across the sky, forming a gap, and three figures rushed out of the gap.

These three are all Guixu.

There are two second-level ones, and one is clearly a third-level one.

They also concealed their ethnic characteristics and used special methods to transform into the appearance of the Yanmiao clan. The moment they appeared, the clouds and mist exploded, the sound of Qingqin echoed, and they rushed out, heading straight for these three people.

The sky roared, and when the war broke out, a fourth figure silently emerged from the black lightning crack, turned into a ray of light, and headed straight for Xu Qing.

The speed was so fast that as the moment approached, a cold light flashed in Taoist Si Nan's eyes, he stepped out, flicked his big sleeves, and immediately rolled them up, starting a fight in the sky.

At this moment, when the sky and the earth were fighting, a member of the Eight Tribes suddenly trembled, and the breath coming out of his nostrils actually transformed into two mist villains, rushing towards Xu Qing.

He was not far from Xu Qing. This sudden scene at this moment formed a huge crisis. Seeing that it was approaching, a hand stretched out from the void beside Xu Qing, grabbed the two villains, and squeezed them hard.

A shrill scream came out, and when the two villains collapsed and turned into countless residual mist and retreated, the hand deep in the void rushed forward, and one person stepped out.

Xu Qing knew that it was the original deputy palace master of Silu Palace who was now his official position. He nodded to Xu Qing and walked towards the residual mist.

At the same time, in the sky, outside the huge black lightning, a larger rune was revealed as the teleportation fluctuations reverberated, and seven or eight people walked out of it.

The person in charge is clearly Li Yunshan, and beside him are the master of the Palace of Obedience and the deacons of the three palaces.

After they appeared, they rushed directly into the black crack, and the next moment, the roaring sound echoed in the sky.

Tingyu's eyes were blank, and she was about to speak, but Chen Feiyuan grabbed her and quickly backed away.

Xu Qing finished kowtowing at this moment. When he raised his head and looked at the sky, the golden light shone in the sky, as if it had turned into a golden sky and sea, and the forbidden magic weapon of the county was formed here.

Spreading the sky.

In the golden net that spreads in all directions, there is a majestic face looming.

It is Yao Hou.

Countless small worlds were formed around it, like twinkling stars. With the blessing of forbidden magic weapons and the luck of the county capital, those small worlds were forcibly brought together to form a big world!

Head towards the black lightning crack and suppress it directly.

"Guixu Level 4!"

Xu Qing's eyes narrowed. At this moment, the green smoke from the lit incense stick in front of him suddenly turned into a finger and suddenly pressed towards Xu Qing.

The killing intention spreads in all directions, locking Xu Qing's body and soul. Once it falls, Xu Qing's body and soul will collapse.

But the moment the finger appeared, the nothingness around it twisted, and someone walked out again, stopped in front of Xu Qing, and shouted lowly.

"Disperse!"

The sound carried terrifying fluctuations, but it avoided damage to the tomb and fell directly into the fingers of the mist.

The fog bursts.

The figure of the arriving person was now clearly reflected in Xu Qing's eyes.

That was the Great Elder of the Sword-holding Court of Yinghuang Province.

He is Master Bai's master.

After appearing at this moment, he turned to look at Xu Qing, then at Tingyu and Chen Feiyuan, nodded, and spoke calmly.

"Xu Qing, you continue to worship."

Xu Qing was silent. After clasping his fists, he looked at Master Bai's tombstone, lowered his head and kowtowed, very seriously.

"Teacher, I disturb your sleep..."

Xu Qing murmured softly in his heart. He understood Yao Hou's thoughts. He could understand this matter, but he had no prior knowledge.

Xu Qing understood that the reason why he did not tell him was that Marquis Yao guessed that he would not agree to the location in front of Master Bai's grave, or that the battlefield was not decided by their side.

Xu Qing lowered his head and kowtowed heavily.

Once, twice, three times...

This time, Yao Hou's preparations were extremely complete, and with Zi Tu's cooperation, thousands of assassins around him soon either died or were captured, and the battle in the sky did not last long.

After noticing such an arrangement around Xu Qing, the visitor had already decided to leave.

At the same time, the black lightning crack also overflowed with blood rain as Yao Hou's big world entered.

Gradually, the assassination ended quickly after appearing suddenly. Although there was still fighting, they also moved away from Zitu during the pursuit.

Heaven and earth slowly became quiet.

This assassination attempt from the reactionary forces hidden in Fenghai County failed. Maybe these are not all, or maybe they can actually arrange it better.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! However, the rush of time, the failure to choose the battlefield, or some unforeseen reasons doomed the ending.

Because Xu Qing felt that everything he did today was more like a show.

"Maybe it's not Yao Hou who is fishing, but he has received some information, so he is closing the net..."

Xu Qing was thoughtful.

The great elder of Huangzhou Sword-holding Court, who was standing by, saw Xu Qing's expression and spoke slowly.

"Don't hold a grudge against Marquis Yao in your heart. He actually paid more. He used the taboos of the county and a little luck to forcefully gather the world. What he spent was life."

"As the acting county governor, his connections among various ethnic groups will be the basis for his future governance of Fenghai County. He will also have a completely different style of doing things from the old county governor."

"Some clan members want to hand over their names, and they may have given some information."

"But in order to strengthen the stability of the sea seal, to intimidate all parties, and to guard against some people outside the county, Yaohou could not show his cowardice, so he chose to establish his authority."

"After all, there is no real fourth-level power in Fenghai County, so what happened today."

Having said this, the elder of the Sword-holding Court gave Xu Qing a meaningful look.

"In addition, one of your weaknesses will also be erased from the enemy's knowledge. After all, being able to lay out the plan in front of the teacher's grave is enough to show that worldly feelings cannot shake your heart, so that no one will use this plan against you in the future.

."

"Of course, this is just my personal judgment."

Xu Qing said nothing. He understood the current situation of Fenghai County very well and felt Yao Hou's intentions.

When he looked up at the surrounding battlefields, Chen Feiyuan walked quickly from a distance and spoke in a deep voice.

"Zitu's side has captured many people alive. Apart from the necessary torture, how should we deal with the others?"

Xu Qing put away his mind and spoke calmly.

"kill."
