The two people who came to stay at the Gaopeng Inn were Qin Yang and Xiao Yue'er, who was disguised as a man.
When shopkeeper Gu saw Qin Yang, he felt that Qin Yang looked very familiar. He remembered the Suzhou man who lived in his shop seven years ago, owed him dozens of taels of money for rent, and stole a bunch of things from the shop.
But he didn't dare to be completely sure. After all, after seven years, Qin Yang's appearance had changed somewhat. More importantly, after going through life and death in the world of immortality, Qin Yang's temperament had undergone great changes.
.
In the past, Qin Yang always had the air of a gangster.
There is an awe-inspiring and inviolable majesty in Qin Yang's movements now, and an awe-inspiring and murderous aura.
Seeing that Qin Yang didn't make any reaction, he was convinced that the person in front of him was definitely not the Suzhou scholar who won the first prize in seven years and then disappeared decisively. He wrote the false name reported by Qin Yang in the accommodation registration book.
After staying at the Gaopeng Inn, Qin Yang considered that the news about the hijacking of the execution ground in Bingzhou would soon reach the capital, where both the capital and the palace would be on heightened alert, so Qin Yang felt that the sooner he entered the palace, the safer it would be.
In addition, there are also unknown variables hidden in the disappearance of Jin Changhai and Zheng Ying. This also makes Qin Yang unwilling to delay for one more day.
He decided to go to the palace that night to find out what was going on. He immediately summoned Lin Bubai, Chang Hao and other seven professional bounty cultivators who had been subdued by him, and began to discuss a plan of action.
Qin Yang told the seven people truthfully about his intentions and the opponent's strength, without hiding anything. He must tell the truth on this matter.
If they don't tell the truth and trick them into the palace, the strength shown by Zhu Lei's side may make these people confused. More importantly, it may also destroy their little trust in them.
.
Now these seven people are in a very sensitive period. They are very concerned about Qin Yang's every move and will think deeply about it.
Qin Yang knew that if he destroyed their little trust in him, it would be equivalent to destroying their hope of liberation in five years. People who lose hope often do some terrible and irrational things.
After these seven people listened to Qin Yang's intentions and the strength of Zhu Lei's side, their reactions were the same as those of the professional bounty cultivators Qin Yang had found before, with fear on their faces.
The fear on Zuo Dao's face was the first to disappear. He said to Qin Yang: "Yunluo Kingdom is the Zhongyuan Kingdom. I heard that it is the sphere of influence of the Xuangang Sect. Assassinating the emperor of Yunluo Kingdom may offend the Xuangang Sect.
Bar."
The other six casual cultivators all nodded and agreed with Zuo Dao. Obviously, since they did not want Qin Yang to provoke the behemoth Xuangang Sect, they were not willing to provoke the largest sect in Xuangang City with themselves, the Xuangang Sect.
Qin Yang also knows the psychology of these people, and the relationship between him and these people is still in a semi-hostile state. These people obey him entirely out of fear of Poison Pill, so that they can sincerely support him.
It's not yet time to make an effort.
If we don't dispel their concerns and ask them to fight with all their strength, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do so.
Qin Yang had no choice but to lie to them. He said to several people without changing his expression: "Xuan Gang Sect is nothing to be afraid of. Even if Zhu Feng, the head of Xuan Gang Sect, is in person, he still has to give me some face. You guys
What you have to consider is how to help me kill Zhu Lei, and I will handle the rest."
Several people looked at Qin Yang with doubts and doubts, but none of them expressed their stance. It was Zuo Dao who was the first to express his stance. After a wry smile, he said to Qin Yang: "We are all people who died once under the hands of the young master. If the young master has any
If any unforeseen circumstances happen, I am afraid that the few of us will not live peacefully. Young Master, please make arrangements. We will follow you through mountains of swords and seas of fire. I just hope that Young Master will not forget his promise to let us be free five years ago."
Zuo Dao's words expressed the thoughts of the other six bounty cultivators, and also revealed the essence of their relationship with Qin Yang. If Qin Yang was finished, their antidote would be gone, so naturally they would also be finished.
The only thing they hope for now is that Qin Yang will fulfill his promise in five years and completely remove the poison from their bodies.
Qin Yang said: "In five years, I will definitely fulfill my promise and let you all be free. The time will be counted from the day I first said this."
Although the verbal promise was not guaranteed by anything, after Qin Yang said this again, several casual cultivators felt a little more comfortable.
After Qin Yang glanced at these people, he asked, "Do you have any more questions?"
The seven people shook their heads. In their current situation, they could only obey Qin Yang's orders. After all, they had all died once under Qin Yang's hands. The situation in front of them now meant that they had to fight against mountains of swords and seas of fire. They had to obey Qin Yang.
There is still a glimmer of hope for the arrangement.
Qin Yang first asked for their opinions and let them express their opinions. After all, Zuo Dao and the other seven bounty monks relied on doing dangerous tasks to earn bounties. They were also quite good at this kind of action and put forward many suggestions. Some of the questions were:
What Qin Yang didn't expect.
After listening to the opinions of several bounty monks, Qin Yang's plan was completed and he began to make formal arrangements for that night's actions.
The seven people saw that Qin Yang had made careful arrangements and had given comprehensive consideration to the handling of unexpected events and where to gather after being separated. They all admired his thoughtfulness.
After Qin Yang made arrangements, he took out several jade boxes from his storage bag and gave two pills to each person.
These seven people are now very afraid of Qin Yang's elixirs. The elixirs Qin Yang gave them seem to be highly poisonous substances, and they feel like hot potatoes in their hands.
After Fatty Wu boldly identified the pills in his hands, he suddenly made a voice of surprise: "Xuanling level spiritual energy pill! Two Xuanling level Qi condensation pills!"
Several other people also quickly identified the pills in their hands. After a while, Chang Hao and Fan Houhou also made sounds of surprise: "Mine are also two Xuanling-level Qi Condensing Pills! They are for the Golden Pill stage,"
Didn't they follow Mu Lao to assassinate Qin Yang just for the two Xuanling-level Qi Condensing Pills?
At this time, Chang Hao suddenly shouted: "This is the Xuanling-level Qi Condensation Pill refined by Grandmaster Zhou Hong of Xianzhitang!"
"Is it really made by Grandmaster Zhou?" While these people were waiting for news about Li Tianlong in Jade Mirror City, they also knew the situation in Jade Mirror City quite well. They had heard about Zhou Hong's reputation for a long time, and some people had come to ask for help.
Zhou Hong asked for medicine, but Zhou Hong refused.
"That's still fake. The elixirs produced by Xianzhi Hall have the word Xianzhi in this place." Chang Hao showed off a little proudly.
"The golden elixir-level Xuanling-level elixir refined by Grandmaster Zhou is hard to find!" one person said.
This sound immediately reminded the seven people, and they all looked at Qin Yang in awe. Qin Yang had produced so many Xuanling-level elixirs for the Golden Elixir Stage monks, so what was Qin Yang's identity?
They had already believed Qin Yang's words seven or eight times. The fear of offending the Xuangang Sect that had troubled them before was wiped away by the pills that Qin Chu brought out.
Only Zuo Dao always looked as usual. From Qin Yang assigning tasks to Qin Yang distributing the elixir, he never showed many changes in his emotions, which made Qin Yang a little surprised.
Qin Yang said: "You have to hang out with me for at least five years. Of course I won't hang out with me in vain. I hope that when you leave me in five years, your cultivation will reach a higher level. After killing the emperor, you will have three people left."
A Xuanling-level Qi Condensing Pill."
Qin Yang's words raised the fighting spirit of these seven bounty cultivators.
Qin Yang's words have two meanings for them: first, this kind of benefit will be regular in the future, and Qin Yang will even help them improve their cultivation level to another level within five years. This is a great achievement for any monk.
It was an irresistible temptation; secondly, Qin Yang once again promised to let them go in five years, and they saw some hope of regaining their freedom.
In addition to two Xuanling-level Qi Condensing Pills per person, Qin Yang also gave each person two Huangyuan-level Restoring Spirit Pills. After taking them, 20% of the mana can be restored instantly, which can greatly enhance the strength in battle.
After giving the benefits, Qin Yang warned the seven people again that if anyone was disobedient, he would never give them the antidote to the Heart-breaking Pill.
It is always the king's rule to pay equal attention to kindness and power. Under Qin Yang's threats and inducements, several people were extremely obedient and did not dare to say no.
They left the Gaopeng Inn at dusk and used the escape method to reach the outside of the palace in the south of the city in an instant.
The Imperial City of Yunluo Kingdom is located in the north of Rongjing City, occupying one-fifth of the entire Rongjing City. Within the imperial city is the magnificent Ouchi Imperial Palace, which occupies almost half of the area of the imperial city.
From outside the imperial city, you can't see the scene inside the Ouchi Imperial Palace at all. Even people who have lived near Rongjing Imperial City for several lifetimes can only rely on imagination and rumors to outline the layers of exquisiteness in the Ouchi Imperial Palace.
There are jade-carved palaces, countless elegant corridors, and gorgeous gardens decorated with exotic flowers and plants, etc.
It is now the middle of the night, and several gates of the imperial city have been closed. The tall imperial city walls look cold and forbidding in the night.
Qin Yang and others had been waiting more than a hundred feet above for some time, and already knew the internal affairs of the imperial city very well.
Originally, they could easily enter the imperial city with the magical powers of the Golden Core Stage monks, but after Qin Yang probed outside the walls of the imperial city, he decided to wait for a while before entering.
There were faint spiritual energy fluctuations on the palace walls and the area tens of feet above the imperial city. This spiritual energy fluctuation was not strong. If Qin Yang hadn't been cautious and deliberately released his spiritual consciousness to detect it, it would have been difficult to notice if there was one.
Ruowu's spiritual energy fluctuates.
Qin Yang exchanged his divine consciousness for mysterious power. If he used divine consciousness, he would be easily discovered by other immortal cultivators in the emperor.
Qin Yang's profound energy followed the spiritual energy fluctuations to detect inward. He found that the subtle spiritual energy fluctuations on the city wall came from a formation. This formation had no other purpose. It was just a detection formation. As long as outsiders broke into the palace,
This formation will send an alarm to the immortal cultivators in the palace.
After Qin Yang told several people the results of his speculation, they all broke into a cold sweat. If Qin Yang hadn't been careful, they would have suffered a big loss if they had rushed into the palace.
After figuring out the source of the spiritual energy fluctuations on the palace wall, Qin Yang quickly calculated the void time and void point of that formation. Now they are on the edge of the void point. As soon as the time comes, they can pass through the void passage.
Once they escape into the palace, the detection array won't be able to detect them.
