A majestic city is located in the middle of the plain. Behind the city, there are endless mountains, which seem to be the end of the world.
A huge golden shield shrouded the city. Just a hint of aura and a thick majestic air made people unable to help but worship. They did not dare to feel a sense of blasphemy in their hearts, let alone think about it.
To break open.
This is only the outermost layer of defense. Through the giant golden screen, you can see that on the city wall, there are huge runes rising on each one, connected together on top, shining with different shadows.
, forming a second line of defense.
However, if you look carefully at this defense, you will find something special, because these defenses are actually inside the defense. It seems that the entire city is not resisting external threats, but suppressing internal threats.
“This thing is so thick, how can we get in?”
In a corner of the city, Huaying looked at the city wall, which was still more than ten feet away, and couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Of course we have to rely on our old flowers. We don't care about this difficulty, right?" Fei Yi said with a chuckle from the side.
"If this defense were to be outside, I would not be able to go in even if I am exhausted, but now it is not difficult. There is just one key problem, that is, once you enter, it will be difficult to get out. Are you sure we want to go in?"
Hua said with a serious face.
“Why do you say that?” Huaying was a little confused.
“What the other party said is difficult is not that it is difficult to come out, but that her strength is limited. Even if she can bring your people out, it is impossible to bring everyone out in a short time.” Fei Yi explained from the side.
"That's very simple. Let's release all the clan members first, and then let the elders think about the problem. Even if they can't think of it, I have a backup plan. In the back mountain, there is a mountain range that I hollowed out. That side is far away from the outside.
It's very, very close, maybe you can spend less on that side, we are proceeding carefully." Huaying said confidently.
"I hope so. If I weren't sure that there was no one here, I would just be responsible for sending you in." The old man smiled mockingly, and then got ready.
This time, among the news about the outer soul, even Wen Tianhou's final bodyguards had been brought along, which made her believe that there were no enemies inside, and they were all rushing over there. Although the bodyguards were few, each one was powerful.
Incomparably powerful, not inferior to Huahun.
“Please!” Huaying said pitifully.
At the same time, in the courtyard of the Huahun clan.
Since Wen Tianhou sent people to reinforce the defense earlier, it had no impact on them. However, there were internal speculations about why the other party did this, because the reinforcement did not seem to have any other effect besides making them spend an extra day.
They were eager to know the situation outside, but without information, they did not act rashly.
The elders are busy, and it has almost no big impact on the people below, especially for some heartless people. They only need to know how to follow the elders when the time comes. The only complaint is that they feel restricted.
.
“Hua Xin, do you think we will succeed this time?”
Outside a separate room, two sneaky figures were peering inside. Through the crack in the door, a man could be seen who seemed to be taking a rest.
"It definitely worked this time. I begged my lady to add some ingredients." Hua Xin said with a proud look on her face.
"Your young lady actually helped you. It's so enviable. No matter what I say, my young lady is not willing." Hua Xin's good friend, Hua Yu, said with some frustration.
“Of course, my lady is very easy to talk to.” Hua Xin would not tell her that she had not told the truth at all, and she had promised Hua Mei some conditions, so she succeeded.
“Okay, stop talking nonsense. We missed last time, we must not miss again this time.” When Hua Xin saw the other party opening his mouth, he immediately pointed inside and said, otherwise the other party would insist on asking her for details, of course she would know.
Her diversion worked wonders. Huayu nodded, and then took a small red ball that was only the size of a grain of rice. Although the other party was inconspicuous, the effect was good. After Mengzhen's "help", they were confident that the other party could win.
A big embarrassment.
As the painted rain moved gently, wisps of very inconspicuous red mist slowly floated in the air, drifting along the gap towards the unaware man, and very carefully passed under the other's nose, under the quilt.
The other party inhales it.
“Succeeded!”
Hua Xin and Hua Yu looked at each other and quietly stepped back with excitement on their faces, hiding aside, waiting to watch a good show.
Xu Jia, who was resting inside, suddenly felt something was wrong. He opened his eyes suddenly and was shocked because the surrounding scenery became different. The familiar scene made him think he was in a room under the lonely peak.
He remembered that he was clearly in the palace city, resting in the Huahun clan's room, so why did he suddenly come here.
“I’m a little dizzy! No, someone is plotting against me!”
Suddenly, a wave of fatigue shook his body, making him very alert. However, it was already too late. He seemed to be unable to control his body, and did not even speak the words he wanted to shout.
Then Bai Jiajia's figure appeared in front of him. She waved to him, and he walked out accidentally.
Although his consciousness was very clear at this time, he was unable to control his body and could only watch him leave the house and come to the streets of Lone Peak.
This is a main road below. He followed it carefully. There were usually a lot of people. Now only Bai Jiajia was leading the way, and no one else could be seen.
At this time, he knew that he had been tricked, but he had no choice but to constantly try to gather the magic power in his body to break through this illusion.
What surprised him was that the other party just stopped by chance, waved to him, and let him continue to catch up uncontrollably. He just kept circling around, and nothing more happened.
“Haha, look at him still pointing fingers at us in an old-fashioned way.”
Hua Xin watched the other person circling around in confusion, and laughed secretly with Hua Yu. It turned out that they had met several times before, and they were lectured by the other party, which made them dissatisfied, and that's why they came up with the current plan.
Xu Jia never dreamed that he couldn't stand the other party's behavior at that time. He said a few words casually, but he didn't feel at ease at all, and the other party took care of him.
“The time is coming, I’ll give him something fun to play.” Hua Yu covered her mouth and whispered, making Hua Xin’s eyes light up and she kept nodding.
Hua Yu then moved slightly, and Xu Jia, who had been circling nearby, turned around and walked towards the door.
“I’ll give him a bang on the head later and pack him away.”
Two people followed, cautiously.
At this time, the outside was surrounded by a barrier, and they could not get out at all. They also tried it privately. Perhaps only the elders could shake the seal. For them, they had to be careful.
“Look, the other party is about to hit us.” Hua Xin reminded from the side.
Needless to say, Huayu was ready to watch the fun, but the next moment something happened that shocked them.
The next moment, Xu Jia penetrated directly and disappeared in front of them. Through the seal, they could vaguely see the figure of the other party continuing to walk outside.
“Oops, I lost control of him.” Hua Yu said anxiously from the side.
“Don’t worry about this for now, you and I will go find the elders together.” Hua Xin, who was more thoughtful than her, immediately realized the difference.
Of course, it had something to do with Meng Zhen talking about it every day and worrying about the situation outside all day long, which made her realize how important it was to all of them to keep the restrictions outside.
“Hey, hey! I understand, don’t drag me! I’ll go with you!”
Hua Yu had no room for resistance at all, and was directly pulled away by Hua Xin, running towards the inside.
The elders have been discussing there all day long, and they must be there now.
In the place where the elders gathered, discussions were still going on as usual.
“The most fundamental problem now is that we don’t know what’s going on outside. There’s no way around it. Why don’t we just rush out and see if Wen Tianhou has the guts to die with us.” The irritable Ninth Elder said to everyone.
“Everyone knows what you said, and I also know the frustration in everyone’s hearts.” The second elder stood up and comforted him. When he saw the ninth elder sitting down, he glanced around.
Everyone's mood is no longer as calm as it was initially. The main reason is that the other side is bullying them. Even if they endure it any longer, the situation will only get worse. It is better to resist as soon as possible.
All the elders understood this. They just needed to find out the information at first to calm down. However, as time went by, they had no means to pass through this layer of restrictions and had no way of knowing the news from the outside. In other words,
Now that they are completely trapped here, including the second elder, they all know that time cannot be delayed any longer.
“So, let’s start taking action now. None of us Huahun clan is a coward.” The fifth elder, who had always been silent, also spoke at this time.
“Elder, elder.”
As soon as she finished speaking, there were shouts and shouts coming from outside, and they were shouting and running towards this side.
When Meng Zhen heard such a voice, she frowned and stood up. She could tell who the voice was, but normally the other party should know how to behave. This time, he was so reckless and didn't know what was going on.
Although the others didn't hear it for a while, they understood Meng Zhen's actions when they saw it, and they all stopped talking and waited for the other party's arrival.
“Huayu, why are you here too?”
As Hua Xin came in, another Meng Zi senior also said in surprise. The latter just pointed at Hua Xin, indicating that she had something to say.
“I’ve met all the elders!”
After Hua Xin came in, he saluted them one after another.
“What’s going on, Hua Xin!” Meng Zhen asked.
“Master Xu, he’s out, and the restrictions outside can’t stop him at all.”
Although Hua Xin's words were short, all the elders stood up in surprise. Meng Zhen was also stunned, and then he was surprised again and continued to ask.
“What’s going on, tell me from the beginning.”
“It all started when Hua Yu made trouble.” Hua Xin opened her mouth and threw the pot on Hua Yu.
“Why is it me? I should die!” Huayu was naturally unwilling and retorted immediately.
"It was you. If it hadn't been you, how could Master Xu Jia have discovered it? It was also your fault!" Hua Xin said without blushing.
“It’s obviously you!” Huayu seemed to have forgotten where he was and shouted cautiously.
"It's you!"
"Stop arguing, no matter who it is, keep talking." The seventh elder was on the outside, looking at the two Hua Xin endlessly, and advised them.
“I heard that the Seventh Elder is not as experienced as you.” Hua Xin turned towards Hua Yu as if victorious, and then continued.
From the beginning to the subsequent pranks, even the role Meng Zhen played in it was explained in detail.
Meng Zhen's face turned dark. He didn't expect that what he had done before would actually be used. He looked at the other party with a complacent look, as if he had made a great contribution. His little teeth kept rubbing in his mouth. This little girl
Now it was really unreasonable to go back and lock the other party in a small dark room for three days. She felt sorry for the other party's deception, but she remembered the last words left by the other party in her mind.
“You Huahun clan, including the Mirror Demon clan, it is impossible for any demon soul to leave here, give up!”
Could it be that the other party knew that there were other people here at that time, otherwise he wouldn't have left this sentence specifically. Thinking of this, Mengzhen quickly told his guess. Even Gu Zheng came here to save her.
And say it.
“Really? In this case, the other party had no choice but to give in to Wen Tianwei.”
The second elder said with some disbelief.
"It's very possible, otherwise the other party wouldn't have said this. The other party was aware of Xu Jia's existence, but Wen Tianhou didn't know it. Obviously the other party has not completely surrendered." The Ninth Elder also analyzed for a while.
“Alright elders, instead of this question, why don’t we go see Xu Jia first?” Meng Zhen said helplessly as the elders became more and more confused as they talked, as if they had completely forgotten what was going on.
“Yes, yes, yes! I almost forgot, that painting heart, lead the way and leave quickly.” The seventh elder patted his head and said immediately.
The elders here immediately went out and left here under the leadership of Hua Xin, leaving only Hua Yu who was a little messy. He looked at the empty surroundings and left carefully.
“I want to go over and have a look too!”
After saying that, Pi Dian Pi Dian followed him, forgetting the little bit of unhappiness in his heart about being wronged.
It was obviously Hua Xin’s fault.
“Am I dreaming?”
With a sudden shock in his heart, Xu Jia opened his eyes at this time, looked at everything next to him, and said to himself in a daze.
Just now, he followed Bai Jiajia in his dream around the old Fu Feng, as if he was walking randomly. When he woke up, he found that he was still in the place where he rested, which made him suspicious.
After repeatedly observing the situation inside the body, Xu Jia finally breathed a sigh of relief and found nothing wrong.
“It seems like it’s really a dream. Maybe it’s because I was under too much pressure during this period.”
Xu Jia stood up and walked out of the room. He was about to go out and relax. He couldn't stay bored in the room. But as soon as he took a step forward, he heard a large group of people walking towards him. When they saw Xu Jia, they all had expressions on their faces.
Be happy and then speed up.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Jia felt that he was overwhelmed by the other party. These elders of the Painting Soul Clan carefully asked him strange questions, making him dizzy. After a long while, everyone on the other side calmed down.
, he still looked confused.
Under the gaze of everyone, I finally remembered what they had said before and understood what had happened. It seemed that what I had just been focusing on was not a dream.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Xu Jia, it’s our fault this time.” Meng Zhen pulled out the painting’s heart, and the latter apologized sincerely.
"It's okay, it's okay." What else could Xu Jia say, not to mention that the other party saved him, even if the other party's unintentional play was unintentional, he couldn't hold on to it, but he finally understood the "powerful" power of the Huahun clan.
The place deserves its reputation.
"If you have nothing to do, my friend Xu Jia, why don't you go out and find out how the situation is outside." As soon as Xu Jia finished speaking, the seventh elder squeezed over and said impatiently.
"no problem."
What can Xu Jia say? He walked directly outside in the passage that the other party left. Besides, if the other party left here, he could also leave here, killing two birds with one stone.
Soon everyone came to the nearest exit. It was just a temporary door, but it was big enough, but it was surrounded by layers of black knots like spider webs.
Everyone stopped not far away, looking at Xu Jia in front of them and continuing to walk forward. He did not hesitate at all. Facing the troublesome restriction, he walked out without caution.
Everyone cheered, as if they had seen the hope of getting out.
"What's the situation outside? Is there anyone watching?"
Xu Jia just took a look at the door and then backed out. As soon as he entered, he was questioned by the second elder.
“No, I even feel that the whole city is empty.” Xu Jia told what he saw.
“It’s empty. It’s unlikely. The other party is observing in the dark.” The seventh elder next to him said.
“Not necessarily, of course what you said makes sense.” The second elder said thoughtfully.
"I think it's best for you to take a look in person." Xu Jia saw that the other party was starting to write ink again, so he simply walked to the door and smacked it forward. The extremely strong restriction was unexpectedly shot, creating a gap, which just happened to open the door.
Empty out.
The Huahun elders were almost blinded by all this, feeling that opening the gap was as easy as opening a door.
“How did you do it?” an elder couldn’t help but ask.
"I don't know. You said before that this restriction was extremely powerful, but I felt it was very weak. I don't quite understand." Xu Jia didn't know why, but the restriction in front of him now made him feel that way. Of course, before he came in,
, it still looks hopelessly tough from the outside.
He had never thought of sabotaging it before. He had also seen the temptations of those elders. In addition, he did not expose himself and did not take action. He did not expect to be so fragile.
"I'll try!"
They all knew that the restriction was so powerful that it could only be useful to them. At this time, the Ninth Elder flew out from the side and rushed forward before he finished speaking. He disappeared in front of everyone in an instant. After a few breaths, he came out again from outside.
I followed carefully and saw her saying with surprise on her face.
“It’s really empty outside. I tested it just now and found that no one is there. Moreover, the defense of the palace has been activated, which is obviously a precaution against us breaking the restriction.”
“It’s really strange, why is there no one outside? My friend Xu Jia, how long can you maintain this passage, will the other party be alert?” The second elder asked Xu Jia.
“You can take as long as you want. As for whether the other party knows about it, I don’t know.” Xu Jia spread his hands and said honestly.
“No matter what, let’s gather everyone together and leave here immediately.” The second elder made a decision.
