Chapter 955 The clouds cover the sun and the swallows return to their nests (7)
In fact, for the dozen or so masters, the main reason why they dared to rush up to fight Wei Changtian was not only because of the conditions promised by Jing Guoqing and the anger in their hearts, but also because they felt that they had no chance of winning.
And that was indeed the situation at the beginning.
Even though Wei Changtian summoned three divine beasts of luck at once, creating a huge scene, he not only failed to gain any advantage without the help of system props, but was even slightly at a disadvantage.
If this trend continues, his defeat seems to be a foregone conclusion, and many spies who are hiding in the dark to observe the battle also judge this.
But as time went by, the war situation began to develop in an unexpected direction.
The reason is actually that Wei Changtian seems to have inexhaustible internal strength.
In a battle between warriors, if there is not much difference in strength and neither side has the means to quickly decide the winner, then the reasonable deployment of internal strength is the most critical factor in determining the outcome.
It was obvious that the combined internal strength of these ten masters was undoubtedly many times greater than Wei Changtian's.
Although the one-to-many situation cannot be judged solely by internal strength, the party with superior internal strength at least has the advantage of time.
After all, with Wei Changtian's style of play, one can imagine the speed at which his internal energy is consumed, and he will definitely not be able to persist for too long.
So under normal circumstances, the longer it drags on, the better it will be for these dozen or so masters, until Wei Changtian's internal strength is exhausted and he can only escape in embarrassment...
These are the initial thoughts of almost all warriors watching the battle.
But until now, they suddenly discovered that this was not the case at all.
Although Wei Changtian has been using all kinds of powerful killing moves since the beginning of the war, and he has not reserved any moves, his internal energy consumption has obviously far exceeded the upper limit of a second-grade warrior.
But he is still "vibrant" even now, with no trace of fatigue on his face, and he even feels more "vigorous" as he fights.
On the other hand, the more than ten masters on the opposite side, even though they have been very careful in allocating their internal strength and saving what they can, are still showing signs of fatigue, and the weaker ones have completely given up attacking and can only defend in a helter-skelter manner.
This is undoubtedly a manifestation of the huge consumption of internal energy...
There is no doubt that this situation was unexpected by everyone.
Especially the dozen or so masters, they became more and more confused as they fought.
But no matter whether they can figure it out or not, the battle will not stop for half a second.
And when Wei Changtian's "internal power reserve" turned his original disadvantage into an advantage, it was not surprising that casualties began to appear in this battle.
...
"boom!!"
"Oh no!!!"
There was a roar and a scream.
When a thick purple thunder fell from the dense clouds and slammed into a middle-aged man who was unable to dodge, Wei Changtian finally killed the first man after hundreds of breaths.
"boom!!"
In the churning purple lightning, the man's body turned into ashes in just an instant, and his weapons and clothes were annihilated in the air.
The realm is only at the third level, and there is no life-saving treasure on him.
Although the combat prowess this man had shown before was already at the top of the Third Rank Realm, it was normal for him to be the first to die in a battle of this level.
And his death was like the first domino to fall, immediately and completely breaking the balance of the entire battle.
After all, these dozen masters were already at a disadvantage, and now their combat power was suddenly reduced by one. Naturally, a gap appeared in the entire "coordinated operations" system.
How could Wei Changtian miss such an opportunity? He immediately stepped up the offensive on one side and took away the lives of three more people in an instant before the opponent could react.
One person had his chest pierced by a long sword.
One person was bitten off by the candle dragon.
One person was knocked out by the yellow dragon.
"Watch out!!!"
"Bang! Bang bang bang!!!"
When the two second-level masters who came to their senses suddenly swung out several moves and finally forced Wei Changtian back, the latter had already killed four people in a row in a very short period of time.
And now there are eleven people left in front of him.
...
Eleven people, five second-grade and six third-grade.
This "configuration" is very similar to the group of ten assassins who were instructed by the mysterious man to assassinate Wei Changtian in Linchuan City last time.
And this means that even without the Golden Lotus Petal, Wei Changtian can still defeat his opponent with "hard power" alone.
What's more, most of the internal energy of these eleven people has been consumed, but the internal energy in Wei Changtian's dantian is still full.
Therefore, even though the war is still going on, the outcome of the battle is actually very clear.
In fact, even ordinary people can see which one is better and which one is worse at this moment.
After all, although they couldn't understand the doorway, they saw with their own eyes that Wei Changtian had killed four people, but he himself was not injured.
"It's over, it's over, Daqian is going to die..."
"God, please open your eyes!!"
"Why, why..."
"I, I don't want to die!"
"..."
The faces were either desperate, sad, or frightened. Some people fell to the ground with weak legs, some people opened their mouths wide and were at a loss, and some people were running around in a panic, but they didn't know where they could escape.
Everyone seemed to have seen that the entire capital had turned into a hell on earth, with corpses and blood everywhere.
During the battle, the remaining eleven masters also had the idea of escape.
Because when those four people died, even though no one else died yet, they no longer saw any chance of winning.
So why stay and wait for death...
His expression became hesitant, and his actions were not as decisive as before.
In fact, these people knew very well that if they really escaped, they would be completely defeated immediately due to the imbalance of combat power, and they would also become the eternal sinners of the subjugation of Daqian because of their escape.
But if you don't escape now, but others escape first, then you may never be able to escape again.

Unknowingly, except for a few loyal generals who were loyal to the royal family, all the other masters that Jing Guoqing borrowed from various sects had retreated to the outside of the battle circle while fighting.
Their little thoughts may not be visible to ordinary people, but how can they escape each other's eyes.
For a time, these people immediately understood what others were thinking, and their thoughts of escaping became more determined.
However, at this moment, before anyone could actually take action, Wei Changtian, who was standing above Zhulong's head, suddenly disappeared.
It wasn't that it was too fast to see clearly, but it really disappeared out of thin air.
"this!"
Eyes widened suddenly, all eleven people felt a chill running down their spines, fearing that Wei Changtian would appear in front of them in the next second.
However, what they were worried about did not happen. Instead, a shrill scream suddenly erupted from the top of the afternoon gate at their feet.
"Your Majesty, be careful!!!"
"..."
...
There were dark clouds and thunder and lightning.
Above the Meridian Gate, candle dragons, yellow dragons, and Gu eagles were still writhing crazily. Only Wei Changtian suddenly left the battlefield and appeared above the Meridian Gate without any warning.
This turn of events shocked everyone, wondering how he did it.
But for Wei Changtian, all this was within his plan.
He knew very well from beginning to end that it was enough to win the battle with those fifteen people. He did not have to and could not kill them all.
After all, a group of second-level masters want to escape, and even if I have extraordinary abilities, I can't stop them all.
But someone had to die.
That is Jing Guoqing.
First, he had a heated fight with the opponent above, and then suddenly used his escape technique to "flash" to Jing Guoqing's side, killing him with one blow.
Wei Changtian's plan sounds simple, but in fact it requires very high timing.
It's early, the group of experts are still fighting, and they will definitely come to rescue him immediately. If there is a slight accident, he will not be able to kill anyone.
It was too late, Jing Guoqing must have run away when he realized that defeat was certain.
Therefore, Wei Changtian chose to take action at a time when the outcome seemed to be decided but not yet decided, and he took advantage of the opportunity when a group of masters were trying to escape and came directly to the head of the Meridian Gate City.
Holding Longquan in his hand, he looked at Jing Guoqing, who was just a few feet away from him, with a stunned look on his face. He didn't have any ink marks at all, and instantly turned into a black shadow and shot towards the latter.
In fact, Wei Changtian originally wanted to "teleport" directly to Jing Guoqing, but due to the disadvantage of the escape technique itself that "the farther the distance, the more unstable the landing point", the position where he finally appeared was slightly different by several feet.
deviation.
Under normal circumstances, this is not a big problem, after all, it only takes Wei Changtian an instant to cross this distance.
But at this moment, the only flaw in the plan gave Jing Guoqing a chance.
To be precise, it gave the old eunuch next to the latter a chance...
"His Majesty!!!"
He suddenly raised his right palm and saw that the old eunuch reacted as soon as Wei Changtian rushed towards him.
Such reaction speed is not unsatisfactory. It not only proves that he is at least a third-level master, but also that his attention has been on Wei Changtian from the beginning to the end.
But what's really surprising is not these, but the direction in which his palm landed.
It wasn't Wei Changtian who was opposite him, but Jing Guoqing who was standing next to him!
"..."
His eyes widened suddenly, and Wei Changtian immediately realized what the old eunuch was going to do.
The latter did not want to kill Jing Guoqing to obtain a certificate of surrender.
On the contrary, he wanted to save Jing Guoqing!!
Obviously, Jing Guoqing must be wearing a Qingjue jade pendant.
And since the Qing Jue Jade Pendant cannot be triggered by "suicide", the old eunuch wanted to give Jing Guoqing a slap in the face in an attempt to trigger the Qing Jue Jade Pendant and teleport the latter away from this place!
Hold!
His pupils shrank slightly, and Wei Changtian judged from the flash of lightning that he was not fast enough to stop the old eunuch, so he cursed secretly in his heart and immediately waved a "thousand-mile smoke wave".
This Thousand Miles of Smoke was redeemed from the system system a long time ago in order to prevent any accidents from happening.
I didn't expect that he actually used it...
"Whoosh!"
Invisible white light flashed past, thanks to the excellent quality of the system props and Wei Changtian's really fast response speed.
Almost at the same time that the old eunuch's palm fell on Jing Guoqing's chest, the mark of Qianli Yanbo also successfully hit the latter.
Then the next second, a ball of green light appeared, instantly covering Jing Guoqing.
"Damn it! Die!!!"
Having seen the scene where the Qingjue Jade Pendant was triggered several times, Wei Changtian was no longer surprised by this green light.
So he didn't even care about Jing Guoqing, who had been marked with a tracking mark by him, but turned the tip of his sword and slashed straight at the old eunuch.
It was about to be done, but the latter ruined the good thing.
Even if he can still kill Jing Guoqing later, he will still waste a thousand miles of system points...
At this moment, Wei Changtian was undoubtedly very unhappy with the old eunuch, so he had no intention of talking nonsense to him. The sword light reached in front of the latter almost instantly.
And the old eunuch may have known that he was no match, but he didn't resist at all.
He just looked at the dissipating green light at the last moment before his death, and murmured with some relief:
"Your Majesty, I am ashamed that I was unable to..."
"Uh-huh!!"
The sword light passed by, and the head flew high into the air.
In the end, the old eunuch failed to finish his last words, so his head was chopped off by Wei Changtian's sword.
As for the content after "failure", perhaps only he himself knows...
"Plop!"
The rickety headless corpse swayed and fell at his feet. Wei Changtian stood at the top of the Meridian Gate and looked up expressionlessly.
Until this time, the eleven masters finally came to their senses.
After all, what happened just now seemed like a long time, but in fact it only took two or three breaths, and they really had no time to react.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But now that they really understood what happened, these people didn't know what to do for a while.
If Jing Guoqing was really dead, they would naturally turn around and run away immediately.
But now it is obvious that Jing Guoqing is not dead.
That myself...
With great struggle and entanglement in their hearts, none of the eleven people dared to act rashly.
Fortunately, Wei Changtian was still anxious to chase Jing Guoqing, and had no time to pay attention to them at the moment, so he just glanced at them and then looked away. After feeling the position of the thousands of miles of smoke, he immediately jumped into the air and went straight to the depths of the palace.
"Swish! Swish, swish, swish!"
Just like that, in a few flashes, he disappeared at the end of the sky in full view of everyone, along with the three divine beasts of luck and the dark clouds that filled the sky.
The dazzling sunshine enveloped the earth again in an instant, the warm summer wind blew by, and the huge Daqian capital was silent for a while.
It was as if everything was a dream, and all the earth-shattering visions seemed to have never happened before.
However, the blood and corpses scattered all over the long street reminded everyone that this was not a dream, and that the scene just like Shura Hell was real.
And, it's not over yet.
Countless eyes fell on the empty Meridian Gate, as if they wanted to cross the city wall and take a look at the scene in the palace.
However, whether it is the Forbidden Army who are still alive, the spies from all forces, the eleven upper-level third-level masters still staying above the Meridian Gate, or the countless common people with dull eyes...
At this moment, everyone was just looking at the deathly silent palace from all directions.
But hundreds of breaths passed, and even though there were several dull roars coming from the depths of the palace, no one dared to take even a step.
