Ren Yan and Xiaomei were tortured Xiaofeng, but there was almost no effect. No matter it was whipping or flogging, or even some cruel punishments, Xiaofeng always kept his eyes closed, and his voice trembled and he repeatedly recited the mantras of the Innate Teaching.
It's as if those few mantras can truly eliminate all worldly suffering and lead to the ultimate happiness in the afterlife.
Ren Yan and Xiaomei were both frightened. One of them was an extremely shrewd figure among the young men, and the other had practiced martial arts and had seen darkness. However, Xiaofeng's transformation into a human being and a ghost was still there.
The strange look of reciting the mantra still made their hearts palpitate.
And while the two were being tortured.
The dark sky suddenly seemed to shake, and seemed to be covered with a black curtain, making the already very dark sky suddenly become even darker.
Not only the sky, but all the lights in the entire Xuanguo Mansion seemed to have dimmed a little. If you look from above, you can see that all the lights have dimmed by at least three points.
Because the sky is already dark.
So Xiaomei and Ren Yan didn't notice this change.
But Xiaofeng, who had kept her eyes closed and was covered in blood, suddenly opened her eyes at this moment, looked at the sky with a pair of numb dead fish eyes, and then suddenly grinned.
The blood-stained smile on his face was so terrifying that both Ren Yan and Xiaomei were so frightened that they both stopped what they were doing.
"I'm coming……"
I could only hear Xiaofeng grinning and murmuring intermittently.
Ren Yan and Xiaomei looked at each other for a while, feeling a chill creep up their spines, as if something extremely bad had happened.
the other side.
In the bedroom.
Chen Muzheng was holding a book and chatting with Ning Qiang about some stories.
At this moment, he was suddenly startled and noticed something strange. He raised his head and looked out the window, with a glimmer of light flashing in his eyes.
"What's wrong?"
Ning Qiang noticed Chen Mu's change and asked.
But before Chen Mu could say anything, he heard a sudden loud shout from outside. The loud shout shook all directions and came from a distance. It still made people's eardrums buzz.
"How dare Xiao Xiao dare to cause trouble in the Duke Xuan's mansion!"
Ning Qiang subconsciously reached out to cover her ears, and at the same time showed a look of surprise. Someone dared to cause trouble in the Xuanguo Duke's mansion!
Along with that sharp shout, a depressing atmosphere filled the air, making Ning Qiang feel that the air seemed to be much heavier, and there were all kinds of messy noises outside.
The shouts of killing and the sounds of explosions were intertwined together.
Ning Qiang, who had never experienced anything like this before, suddenly turned pale. The maid she brought with her was also frightened and ran to the window in panic to look out.
But at this time, Chen Mu withdrew his gaze, smiled casually, and said: "Don't panic, it's probably just some thieves. How can the Duke of Xuan be afraid of a thief? Sister-in-law, please stay in the room and don't go out."
good."
As Chen Mu spoke.
The oppressive atmosphere in the room seemed to have suddenly melted away, and the screams and explosions coming from outside the window seemed to have suddenly become lighter.
Ning Qiang saw that Chen Mu was so calm and composed, and even continued to lower his head to read a book. She quickly calmed down and nodded: "Well, it's better if we don't go out. The guards will take care of it."
What Ning Qiang didn't see was.
From above Chen Mu's head, a blue shadow floated out quietly, and with a slight sway, it rose straight up, directly penetrated the roof, and came outside the house.
Chen Mu was out of body and floating on the roof. Now his soul power at the fifth-grade level has been improved. Wherever he can see, he can cover the entire Xuanguo Mansion.
He had a panoramic view of every corner.
far away.
boom!
I saw a bunch of fireworks rising into the sky during the explosion. It was a signal for help. As long as it exploded in the sky, it would be visible to the entire Kyoto.
But the strange thing is that after this bunch of fireworks rose into the sky, they suddenly crashed into a dark sky, only a few sparks burst out, and then disappeared silently.
"Taoist arts...no, magic weapons?"
Chen Mu looked up at the sky, then his eyes swept over the edges of Xuanguo Mansion in all directions, penetrated the earth, and saw the movement of underground veins, and he quickly understood what was happening.
When I looked inside the Xuanguo Mansion, I saw chaos everywhere and fierce fighting everywhere.
"Three of the fourth grade, nineteen of the fifth grade, and they also used magic weapons to temporarily separate the spiritual veins, isolate the inside and outside, and prevent the news from leaking out. No wonder they dare to attack the Duke Xuan's mansion."
Chen Mu's eyes were light.
I thought that the actions of the Bliss Sect were already a bit bold, daring to show up in broad daylight and attack Chen Yao near Yuanwu Alley, but I didn't expect that the Instinct Sect would go even further.
Such a large-scale operation, attacking a prince's residence, no matter what the final result is, will definitely shock the government and the public tomorrow, and the world will be in an uproar!
quietly.
Chen Mu disappeared on the spot.
…
not far away.
On top of another roof.
There was a person standing on the roof, looking at the fighting places in the distance. She was petite and graceful. She was Chen Yao.
"Fourth grade... there is more than one, there is also fifth grade... This black sky curtain should be the magician's method to isolate the cloud fire bullets that transmit information to the outside..."
Chen Yao listened to the movements in all directions, her eyes becoming extremely solemn for a moment.
This is Kyoto, Xuanguo Mansion!
On weekdays, no one dares to cause trouble, so once something happens, it will be an extremely serious and bad situation, and the other party is undoubtedly well prepared!
Now that the inside and outside are isolated, the news cannot be sent out, and the surging blood that she just perceives, soaring into the sky, has at least three strands, and they all belong to fourth-grade warriors!
Three and four grades!
The one who worshiped Zhao Li could only deal with one at most, and even if Elder Meng from the martial arts academy could barely resist one by forcefully raising his energy, the remaining one would be enough to overwhelm the situation.
However, although Chen Yao was solemn at this time, she was not panicked.
Because she knows that there is another person who can destroy the balance and affect the situation, and that is Chen Mu!
Judging from the actions of the other party, it is obvious that they do not know that Chen Mu, a fifth-grade magician, exists in the Xuanguo Mansion. Otherwise, it would not be just three fourth-grade magicians, but it would be even more desperate.
this moment.
Chen Yao was full of admiration for Chen Mu.
If it were an ordinary person, after awakening as a magician, he would already be unable to restrain himself from spreading the word.
But Chen Mu has not changed much from the beginning to the end, and he still lives in that small courtyard. This makes the other party ignorant of Chen Mu's existence, and there is a huge flaw in the killing tonight!
This character, this vision, this is the brother she admires and admires.
If this were not the case, today's Xuanguo Mansion would probably have no room to fight back in the face of this disaster.
Just as Chen Yao was thinking this, Chen Mu's voice came to her ears.
"Don't move around."
Chen Yao paused, then looked back, but did not see Chen Mu's figure, but knowing that this should be Chen Mu's soul transmission, she immediately nodded and said: "Yes, I understand."
It is true that the chaos in Xuanguo Mansion is not something she can interfere with. If she had a sixth-level cultivation, she might still have room to intervene, but now she can only stay in the courtyard.
He didn't ask how Chen Mu was doing.
Because there is no point in asking, it is a waste of Chen Mu's time. At this time, all she can do is not to cause trouble.
"Second brother..."
Chen Yao murmured.
Among the enemies currently invading the Xuanguo Mansion, there is at least one fourth-grade warrior who cannot be restrained.
Fifth-grade magicians are in the realm of Taoism and are otherworldly, but fourth-grade warriors are also at an inhuman level. There are very few examples in history of real confrontations between fourth-grade warriors and fifth-grade magicians. Most of them have more.
If warriors interfere, the outcome will be difficult to predict.
but.
Even if Chen Mu couldn't resist a fourth-level warrior, as a fifth-level magician, he could at least break through the layer of sky that separated the inside and outside and send out the news that the Xuanguo Mansion was attacked by the Tiansheng Cult.
As long as the outside world can receive news, then there is a chance to save the situation.
