"I think this is not too difficult. The main thing is to rely on the prestige of City Lord Liu." Ruocheng has been listening there for a long time and has already thought about this problem in his mind. "As soon as something happens, how can those who betrayed explain it?"
, actions can also make people see flaws, we only need to let the other party open their body and imprint the mark of City Lord Liu, so that we can detect it to the maximum extent."
“For the soul alliance, truly for the soul alliance, those people won’t mind.”
"It's a good idea, even if a few of them may hesitate, but it allows us to bring in as many troops as possible, and then station them at surrounding defense points to prevent the outside from breaking through the barriers. Of course, we must also be prepared for a battle internally.
, when the time comes, we will force the alliance leader to activate the defensive formation in advance, so that the damage caused by the battle inside can be minimized." The other city lord's eyes also lit up, and he told Ruochen what he meant.
Gu Zheng watched everyone talking to each other, discussing the loopholes bit by bit, some of which he had not thought of, but after everyone's discussion, he quickly found a suitable solution.
He hesitated before to name his reinforcements, that is, the Shura clan. If the five rings can really forcefully tear open the space and let the Shura people on standby come over, then the outcome of this battle can be said to be determined.
At the same time, Gu Zheng also knew that at that time, I am afraid that even Wen Tianhou would not be able to drive away the Shura clan, and neither could Lone Peak. He could only watch in vain step by step as they occupied the world bit by bit until they became part of them.
There will no longer be any Shura people wandering outside, they will come here and return here.
“It seems that you have solved the problem and I have brought the other party back.”
At this time, the door to the secret room opened again, and Mrs. Xue walked in with Huaying and the others.
"What are you doing? It's very annoying to go back and forth. Why do you want to see me?" Compared to Yange and the others' unconditional obedience, Huaying was a little impatient and said carelessly as soon as he came in.
“Are you curious about what we are talking about? As long as you answer a few questions, we will tell you.” Gu Zheng ignored the other party’s complaints and said deliberately, like a bad uncle tempting a child with a lollipop.
Even though he knew it was a trap, the child still grabbed the stick, his eyes lit up and he started drawing with interest, and he immediately nodded and agreed to the exchange.
“Deal, just ask if you have anything, I can tell you everything I know. If you want Sister Mengzhen to have any hobbies, what she likes to eat, and what she likes to wear, I know.”
"I don't want to know this." Gu Zheng didn't expect what the other party would say, and quickly glanced around. Fortunately, Pan Xuan wasn't here. Only the devil knew what the other party thought of him, "Hurry up and stand there and accept the interrogation!"
Gu Zheng finally said in a deliberately emphatic tone, and then looked at Yan Yue behind Hua Ying. The latter understood what Gu Zheng meant and pushed Hua Ying to the front.
“The people of the Huahun clan are very interesting.” Mrs. Xue looked at Huaying who had started to ask questions and said to Gu Zheng.
"The other party is neither big nor small, that is, living in the world in the painting, at least it is much more prosperous than those demon souls." Standing aside and watching Yan Ge talk about some questions, Gu Zheng also knew that this time things were done.
No matter what, it will delay the soul alliance being pushed by the opponent.
“Yeah, I just hope that more people can survive this time.”
Mrs. Xue knows the inside story, but she has fully surrendered to this side. Faced with this situation, the Soul Alliance has no other way but this way. Just like in the beginning, only a bloody battle can win the chance of survival for itself.
Chance.
The only thing they don't know is that behind this, there is a third party waiting to benefit.
Soon these city lords got the information they wanted from Huaying. After a brief discussion and making some final decisions, they all said goodbye to Gu Zheng and Madam Xue.
Time is tight, and they must make arrangements non-stop to face what they are about to face.
“Let’s go.”
After everyone else left, Gu Zheng took Huaying and the others towards the living room on the other side, and by the way, he also grabbed Pan Xuan who was outside and went there with him.
“Okay, let’s talk about what happened and why it happened here.”
Sitting aside again, he spoke directly to them.
Next to them, Mrs. Xue and Pan Xuan looked at each other curiously. Although Xue Fu listened to the city lord's inquiry just now, those city lords were also very measured and did not satisfy her curiosity.
“That’s it, we are in Miyagi City and we are about to leave”
Huaying explained the matter carefully this time. After she finished speaking, Yan Ge also briefly talked about her mission and told Gu Zheng that although their previous mission was successful, Gu Zheng's opponent escaped.
“You are trapped, Meng Zhen’s body also has a slight mutation, Xiaoying seems to be controlled by the other party, you escaped and were caught by them.”
Gu Zheng didn't care about Yan Ge's affairs. After all, Ma Nan was dead. He just didn't expect Huaying to bring three very bad news. But at this time, he had no way to escape anyway.
The situation inside Meng Zhen's body was okay. He had no way to deal with Hua Hun. How could he transfer Hua Hun and the others out of thin air? What worried him even more was Xiaoying's matter.
In fact, he had a bad premonition after spending so long here, but he knew that if he went up hastily, it would be impossible to rescue Xiaoying. She was closely guarded by Wen Tianhou and could only rely on the kitten.
Only then could there be a chance, but Mao Mao did not reply, but Xiaoying was already controlled by the other party.
Thinking of the once lively little guy asking questions every day, thinking of this, I felt a vague colic in my heart and clenched my hands tightly.
Outside his body, traces of invisible black aura emerged, just like his mood, which was so bad.
“Master Gu, don’t be angry yet. Maybe someone from the Huahun clan can help you.”
Yange saw the aura surging on Gu Zheng's body. The invisible aura made them both feel slightly frightened, as if it was a volcano. But they were standing on the mountain pass, and they couldn't see it in many places, so he quickly said.
Pan Xuan's eyes also flashed with an inexplicable light. She seemed to see a little difference in the aura of Gu Zheng just now, as if she felt like seeing her ancestor. People couldn't help but worship her. At that moment
, she almost saw the other party's "past", but unfortunately she was interrupted early by Yan Ge and never had the chance again.
Just like this, she understood one thing. Although she had a noble background, excellent talents, and mesmerizing beauty, she was still not worthy of him, not worthy of the real him, and she could only fall deeply in love with him in the end.
Regretfully glanced at Gu Zheng, then suddenly stood up and walked outside without saying goodbye.
Because of the "elixir" she gave to Gu Zheng before, Gu Zheng's power was still increasing at this time, but he did not have time to sort it out, which led to some problems with his own control, and he was not aware of it yet.
"Why do we have to break through at this time!" Gu Zheng just felt Pan Xuan's breath was strange, and then a huge force emerged from the opponent's body, and he started to break through inexplicably.
"I'll go take a look." Mrs. Xue understood something at that moment, said something to Gu Zheng and left in a hurry.
She was unable to notice the difference in Gu Zheng just now, but she understood that Pan Xuan finally came out of her heart for some reason. Although the time was not suitable, she was still happy for Pan Xuan.
Suppressing the surge in his heart again, Gu Zheng looked at Yan Ge, "Who do you think can help?"
Huaying was also on the side, staring at Yan Ge, trying to see what he minded. She also knew how difficult it was to help them get out of there.
"This is also a method that I came up with after overhearing the news from Huaying. Of course, I have to use the power of the Outer Soul clan. And I happened to meet a friend on the way. I know how famous your master is among the Outer Souls at this time. If you speak
If so, there will definitely be no problem." Yan Ge said confidently.
"Now the other party is convening the leaders of those races. If my estimate is correct, the other party will definitely use the Ten Thousand Soul Map to completely control the other party. At that time, these demon souls will be forced to obey the King of Heaven from the heart, and they will not be like those who are willing to do so now.
The opponent has a large number of people, and they will inevitably leave the palace city at that time and go to the plains outside. That will be your opportunity."
“Wait? The Map of Ten Thousand Souls? What kind of magic weapon is that?” Gu Zheng interrupted when he heard this.
"The Ten Thousand Souls Map is a magic weapon that Wen Tianhou came here to find. To put it simply, he can control all the demon souls here and make them loyal to him. Of course, this is a specific function, but it is obviously not suitable for him to use. He once wanted to conquer us.
, but failed, and the other party has now been integrated into the girl Xiaoying, and its power has been further strengthened." Huaying said from the side.
"Hmm." Thinking of Xiaoying, Gu Zheng felt a pain in his heart again, no longer unnecessary, lest he could no longer control his emotions.
He knew how special Xiaoying was. He didn't expect that the place where he lived was actually in the Ten Thousand Souls Map, and the broken artifact on it seemed to be integrated into his body. Otherwise, she would not have been born. But now it seems like
A tool, used by Wen Tianqi.
"I know that there is always a secret passage among the outer souls, which can bypass the opponent's defense and go straight into the palace. I don't know the details. If it can be used, maybe we can bring those painting souls out. As for whether it can be used by
It all depends on luck when the King of Heaven finds out or is hunted down."
“I can give them a huge firework inside, destroying Wen Tianhou’s hometown, which can at least temporarily attract the other party’s attention.”
Huaying said at the side, reminding Gu Zheng of the complicated secret passages. If some manipulation was done, the damage would be earth-shattering.
"This is a good idea. You can give it a try. Now I have a plan to completely eradicate the other party. The end of the other party is coming soon." In order to give them some confidence, Gu Zheng revealed a piece of news to them without outsiders.
Even if Shura fails here, there is a gap provided by Guzheng, but it is the one that was unintentionally sealed. As long as the ancestor is not stupid, he will definitely be able to come over.
As for the gap through which Gu Zheng came in, I'm afraid it was completely blocked by the brush.
He has no worries about the safety of the writing brush. The opponent seems to be quite strong, and with the power of Yu Xi, I am afraid that he may not be able to conquer the opponent now.
In the final analysis, things will change here in the future, it is just a matter of time. Although he has never seen the strength of the ancestor, he will definitely have no problem dealing with Wen Tianhou who can be counted in the palm of his hand.
“That’s great!” Yan Yue praised.
"Then let's go find the outer soul for help. Give me your token. I'm afraid it's too late." Upon hearing this, Huaying immediately stretched out his hand and said to Gu Zheng.
“Does this count as your condition?” Gu Zheng looked at the painting and said deliberately.
"Of course not. We still help you when you go out. Why don't you help me with this small task?" Upon hearing this, Huaying raised his eyebrows, pinched his waist with one hand, and pointed at Gu Zheng with the other. If it weren't for the look of surprise on his face,
I feel like a little scoundrel.
"Okay, I'll give it to you. If you want each other's help, you must go to the city behind and find Elder Gu. Let her come forward. In this way, the other party will definitely go all out. And I'll tell you something about Yan Ge.
Something." Gu Zheng turned his head to the side and faced Yan Ge.
“Be careful when you leave here. It’s almost the same as you imagined, but you can’t come back.”
Gu Zheng briefly explained his past events. Of course, the focus was on the information from the water demon, and what they said before about being able to return the same way was actually just a dream.
“It seems that it was not an illusion.”
Yan Yue and Yan Ge looked at each other and said almost at the same time. Before Gu Zheng could ask any questions, Yan Ge continued to speak.
“Sir, you also know why we are the rebellious two among the water demons, but very early on, we were also worshipers of the King of Heaven.”
"That's because when we were children, we secretly approached the entrance to play, and when we were watching the tribesmen leaving here, a phantom-like dream-like words were passed into our minds. They were not brainwashing us, but talking to ourselves.
Usually, there is a trap over there to warn us." Yan Yue continued from the side.
"There is even a picture of an unknown senior who is locked in a dark cage, betraying and accepting the process of imprinting the soul. At that time, we planted the seeds, saying that we are not willing to lose ourselves, but we can't come back to this
I really don’t know.” Yan Ge continued.
"I'm just afraid that you may have had some difficulties in the past. Remember to find the leader of a hunting group in Kaohsiung. Mention my name and he will be able to help you. But if you ask me where I am, just say that I am practicing and don't reveal any other information.
." Gu Zheng said carefully making arrangements.
Gu Zheng knew that the water demon would leave here sooner or later. After all, this world was no longer suitable for them to stay.
“Well, thank you sir! We will hide it well inside. If you need it in the future, you can give us orders at any time.” Yan Ge said gratefully.
After knowing that there is a problem over there, as long as they take precautions, they will definitely be able to escape the initial roundup.
“Hey, I haven’t solved the problem yet, are you leaving now?” Huaying said with a bit of sadness in her heart while listening to their conversation.
"Don't worry, they will escort you back. This time is enough." Gu Zheng stretched out his head, touched Huaying's head, and said reassuringly.
"I can do it alone." Huaying jumped back, breaking away from Gu Zheng's clutches, and said loudly.
"Okay, I got it. Please help take them away from here. Thank you very much." Gu Zheng said softly, as if he knew something.
Had it not been for the water demon's combat power being greatly reduced due to environmental problems after it left the Soul River, he would have hoped that the water demon would stay here. It could be said to be an extremely powerful force.
“That’s pretty much it.” Huaying suddenly smiled happily, forgetting the unhappiness just now.
“After you have finished this matter, leave!” Gu Zheng said to Yan Ge.
“I will try my best!” Yan Ge said seriously.
Gu Zheng did not keep them, and directly sent people to send them away. As for how the other party left, it might be very simple for them. The only surprise was that there were no other changes on the way.
Theoretically Gu Zheng could also follow them and leave with the help of Huaying's power, but unfortunately he couldn't leave.
“No matter what, we have to take back the five rings before we talk about it.”
Gu Zheng made a joke to himself. He turned back to find his temporary residence and began to close his eyes. While there was still a little time, he suppressed the fluctuations in his body's aura.
Mrs. Xue was also whispering to Pan Xuan outside, waiting for the passage of time.
Just outside the city lord's underground area, water was flowing continuously, and in a dark secret room, some people also gathered together.
Although each of them is covered by a black robe, making it difficult for others to see their body shape and appearance, others naturally know who the other person is.
The men in black robes huddled together and were silent in the darkness, until one person spoke in a low voice.
“Have you been contacted outside?”
"The other party is coming soon. Is there anyone else here? Mr. Liu, that woman has been doubting us." The other one almost let it slip, but corrected it in time.
This place is not just for them. Even if they all know their identities, they still have to beware of others.
"Don't ask her. Those weird guys behind the other party do have some tricks. It's just a pity that they didn't find a good one."
“Tomorrow is the competition. Remember our rhythm and delay as long as possible. Even if the other side doesn’t care, we will try our best to create opportunities, but everything depends on my instructions.”
The man in black robe who spoke first continued to speak.
“Everything has been planned in advance. This is also the last time we gather together. It seems there are no big surprises. Once things go smoothly this time, everyone’s contribution will be seen. Don’t worry.”
“This is our honor.” The other men in black robes said at the same time.
"When I came here, I saw the Lord of Niu City sneaking away from where he lived. Isn't there something wrong?" Another man in black robes from below suddenly said.
"I know something from people I have a good relationship with. It seems that someone is interested in that prize. I'm afraid there is something going on in private. Don't worry about it. On the other hand, you have such a good relationship with the other party and have not made any substantial progress."
“The other party is very suspicious, especially the strange female guard, who is even more unpredictable. I’m afraid it will take some time to know the other party’s fertility.”
"Time? No need. After this incident, the other party will not agree. Once the chaos starts, you will be responsible for dealing with her. Don't let her die. If that doesn't work, send your men to capture her child. You must know the other party
How to do it."
His tone seemed to have seen their ending.
"yes!"
“Do you have anything else to do? We will disband without us.”
There was silence in the air for a while, and soon these people left here silently.
