The dark Pingcheng looked like a crawling giant beast.
As soon as the midnight hour passes, all the lights in every house are extinguished.
Linxianshan, Qiaoyun Pavilion.
After a round of screening, everyone discovered that three disciples had quietly disappeared.
A member of the Hunyuan Gang, a member of the Zhaoxin Sect, and a disciple from an unknown small sect disappeared.
With so many traitors sneaking in, isn't this a provocation to the Pingcheng army, and isn't it a contempt for the many sects in Pingcheng?
The heads of each sect had gloomy faces and remained silent.
"Okay, that's it!"
Cao Su stood up after finishing his overtime work.
Except for the disciple who disappeared on his own initiative, the rest of the disciples seemed to have no problem after initial screening.
"It's getting late. Everyone, please take a good rest here. We'll leave first."
Now that he has completed the task assigned by Wang Meng, Cao Su no longer needs to stay in Linxianshan.
Workers should have the consciousness to get off work at the right time.
What's more, among these many sects, Cao Su always felt uneasy.
Full of vigilance towards unfamiliar environments.
It would be better to return to the army as soon as possible, which would obviously be safer.
Seeing Cao Su preparing to leave, several sect leaders just woke up from a dream.
Lu Longjiang was the first to persuade him to stay: "Cao Baifu, why bother to go back in a hurry? It's already late at night. It's better to stay in Linxianshan and rest. There are many guest rooms in the garden and there are people waiting for them."
He emphasized the word "service" with emphasis.
Seeing Lu Longjiang speak, several other sect leaders hurriedly followed suit.
"Yes, yes, it's better to stay here and rest for the night, and then go out at dawn tomorrow."
Wang Meng's attitude is unclear, and Cao Su is the only official spokesman left in the sect by the government army.
Nowadays, the major sects are unclear. If they want to gain the new trust of the government army, they must lick the young man in front of them.
Of course, one of the important reasons is that Cao Su himself was excellent in martial arts and was an important general under Wei Tao.
"No need."
Cao Su flatly rejected them.
He still stepped out of Qiaoyun Pavilion without hesitation.
"Hey, this..."
The sect bosses had no choice but to follow the "special commissioner" out and escort him out of Qiaoyun Pavilion.
Many disciples watched from a distance as a group of gray-haired sect bosses milled around a young man.
Many people are extremely emotional.
This is the style of young people.
The identities are different and the levels are different.
In a place like Pingcheng, where the government army is strong, the government army represented by Cao Su is superior to them in terms of status, even if they are Qi, blood and even strength masters.
.........
On the private house outside Linxian Restaurant.
Several men in black robes kept staring.
"There are government troops everywhere tonight. Isn't it a bit too risky for us to do this?"
Wanping Taoist, who issued a military order and took the initiative to attack, was always a little panicked.
The Zodiac envoy ordered an ambush of the young centurion of the government army. In addition to taking a fancy to his surging body, he also wanted to distract the government army's attention.
At the moment, the government troops are like headless flies. Although they know that Pingcheng has infiltrated the Wanping Sect, they don't know what the Wanping Sect's specific intentions are.
The ambush of the centurion is likely to create the illusion of "subverting Pingcheng and causing destruction."
Moreover, Cao Su, a young centurion who was well-known in Pingcheng, was ambushed just after he came out of Linxianshan. These sects and gangs were even more involved.
Once the government army thoroughly investigates the sect, it will inevitably cause conflicts and chaos.
And as long as Pingcheng is in chaos, it will be easier for them to take advantage of the fire.
Therefore, the Zodiac envoy formulated this "turnaround" strategy to ambush the young centurion in the government army with unlimited potential.
Although ambushing a Qi-blood warrior doesn't seem to be about martial ethics.
But several black-robed Taoists clearly still had no idea.
By midnight, there was still no movement at Linxianshan.
"Are you not coming out today?"
Several Taoists from the Wanping Sect were confused, and they were almost freezing as they lay on the roof of a house.
At this time, there was movement in Linxian Dinner.
The human voice spread from inside to outside, reaching the entrance of the garden.
"coming!"
Many Taoists were refreshed.
As expected, the government troops will return to the barracks.
In the eyes of Wanping Taoist, he saw the young centurion surrounded.
Sure enough, as the information said, he has a young face.
But this figure......
Cao Su is now tall and tall, half a head taller than the people next to him.
He was wearing casual clothes, with a mysterious sword across his waist, and even when he wasn't wearing the army armor, he had a ferocious aura.
Accompanying Cao Su were the two centurions of the realm left by Wang Meng to Cao Su.
The three of them said goodbye to these sects.
Then he turned around and walked towards the inner city gate.
The dark shadow on the residence did not take action immediately.
They stared at Cao Su, and when they saw Linxianshan closing the door, they followed him quietly.
.........
In the inner city, the government troops strengthened their patrols.
Wang Meng and other generals led a team to conduct a thorough investigation of Pingcheng.
You can see the government troops holding torches passing through key areas at any time.
"Bang——"
Watchmen carrying lanterns walked through the streets.
The streets were deserted.
After Cao Su and the others left Linxian Dinner, they quickly ran towards the military camp.
The three of them didn't speak, and just walked on.
Bang!!
Suddenly, an arrow suddenly shot out from a house on the street.
The flying arrow was as fast as lightning and shot from a distance. Black flames burst out of the air and struck Cao Su, who was running at the front.
"This is........?"
The two power realm centurions behind him were stunned for a moment.
Then they saw Cao Su, who was running in front of them, pause, turn around and pull out the cold knife on his waist, and with a clang, he knocked away the incoming black flame arrow.
Before the three of them could recover, six men in black robes had appeared around them.
They were approaching Cao Su and the others from six directions.
"The traitor is so brave!"
The centurion of the force realm was furious and drew his sword to fight back.
There are government troops patrolling here at all times.
He never expected that someone would ambush their army centurion under such circumstances.
"Jie Jie!"
The man in black robe laughed like a baby crying.
The black-robed man who attacked Cao Su had green balls of flames coming out of his hands, like human heads, and flew towards Cao Su.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of flames appeared, covering almost all angles from which Cao Su could dodge.
Cao Su narrowed his eyes, his energy and blood surged, and the cold knife in his hand trembled violently. He held the knife in both hands and swung it forward.
The cold knife flashed silver light and collided head-on with the flying green fire.
Puff puff......
The first few balls of green fire were split open by Cao Su.
As the energy and blood surged, the green fire was shaken and shattered, scattered on the bluestone slabs on the street, and easily ignited some scattered wooden boards, dead grass, lanterns, etc.
The green fire is green fire in the air, and after burning, it turns into a normal flame color.
"What a powerful force of blood!"
The man in black robes with green fire gave a sharp laugh and floated lightly.
Make a seal with your hands, then wave forward.
More than ten balls of green flames appeared out of thin air and attacked Cao Su.
"It's the will-o'-the-wisp method, don't do it forcefully!"
The two centurions only had time to remind Cao Su, and then they fought with several other men in black robes.
Not all the men in black robes knew Taoism. Most of them still used martial arts to fight the centurions.
The other man in black robe who attacked Cao Su was also a good wielder of a knife.
While Cao Su was fighting against the green fire, he rushed towards him from the side and pulled out a bright black knife.
His speed is not inferior to Cao Su's.
The way he held the sword was a little weird, but the angle of the sword was tricky, and it hit Cao Su three inches under his arm.
If it hits, can't it be swung into two pieces?
Cao Su had no way to avoid it, so he could only block it with a cold knife.
"clang!"
The two swords crossed each other, and the huge force knocked Cao Su away.
Cao Su's mouth went numb, realizing that the opponent's strength was obviously superior to his.
Power realm!
He took advantage of the force of the bounce and turned around and ran away.
"Why are you still standing there? Why don't you hurry up and give chase?"
The man in black robes controlling the green fire floated over angrily.
As a result, the man in black robe who saw the knife wielding the knife woke up from a dream and hurriedly chased after him.
The man in black robe with the knife was shocked.
With his strength level, he had just attacked and killed a qi-blood warrior, but was easily blocked by the qi-blood warrior. The shock left him with numb arms. What kind of monster was this man?
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.
So, he understood, and immediately shouted: "Everyone, this man is born with supernatural power, don't underestimate him!"
Innate divine power?
Cao Su, who ran dozens of steps away, glanced at his arms.
In terms of strength, now he can indeed be regarded as an alternative among the Qi and blood warriors. It is reasonable to say that he is born with divine power.
The Wanping Sect actually dared to ambush them here. Could it be that they had something the Wanping Sect was looking for?
Cao Su looked back and saw the man in black robe with the sword chasing after him quickly.
The man in black robe who controlled the green fire was much slower, and the distance between him and the two of them was getting wider and wider.
Cao Su ran forward a few hundred steps and was about to return to Linxianshan.
"Stop him!"
The man in black robe behind him became anxious and shouted.
Cao Su's speed also surprised him.
It's normal to have strong physical strength in both arms. There are many people like him in the army, but his running speed is not at his level. So what's going on?
As he shouted, the black-robed man from the Wanping Sect who was on guard at the door had no choice but to jump out.
Is there anyone here?
Cao Su's expression changed slightly, and without saying a word, he immediately turned around.
In turn, he rushed towards the man in black robe who had been chasing him.
He lowered the cold knife he was carrying and dragged a long mark on the ground.
