At this time, Demon Lord Shiyue was lazily leaning on the throne, listening casually to the chatter of Long Xiao and the others. After a long time, he impatiently interrupted their words and asked directly: "In other words,
, you have surrounded Yunzhong Pavilion for such a long time and not a single person was caught. Instead, Meng Zirou was almost cooked?"
"Uh------yes!" Long Xiao racked his brains to distinguish a few words, but in the end he bit the bullet and admitted his failure.
"Then did Lu Xiao say when he would come over to see me?" Shiyue seemed to have expected this result, admiring her sharp nails indifferently, and then asked.
"He said to change clothes, and he'll be there soon!" Long Xiao didn't dare to say anything more, and answered carefully with his head lowered. Long Yuan and Long Shan didn't say a word either. Everyone around them knew that Shiyue's nails were his most important.
A powerful weapon. Nine out of ten people who died under his hands were torn into pieces by these ten sharp pointed armors. Now that he is playing with it seemingly unintentionally, who knows who will be stabbed in the next second.
throat.
However, Shi Yue did not move, nor did he ask any more questions. He just closed his eyes lazily and leaned on the back of the throne chair, seeming to have dozed off. Long Xiao and the other three knelt on the ground in embarrassment.
They secretly exchanged glances with each other, and sighed helplessly in their hearts.
When the world is declining, people go out to drink tea. In the past, when Long Mastiff was alive, the eight generals under his command were so majestic. Not only did the general soldiers show respect to them, but even the biting moon would think highly of them. When did this happen?
They were neglectful. Now that the Dragon Mastiff is dead, there are only three of them left among the eight generals. This feeling of being under someone else's roof really makes them extremely uncomfortable.
Just when the three of them were secretly lamenting their ill-fated fate, Demon Lord Shiyue suddenly opened his eyes and looked playfully at the door opposite, as if expecting something. Sure enough, within a moment, a herald ran away in a hurry.
He came in, knelt down skillfully on the ground, and said respectfully: "The Demon King, the Great Protector, and the Third Protector seek to see you!"
"Let them come in!" Shiyue sat up straight, swept away the laziness on her face, and looked at the men and women slowly walking into the hall with great energy. A secretive smile suddenly burst out in her bright eyes. Then she looked at him.
He looked at Lu Xiao in surprise, as if he didn't recognize him.
"Meet the Demon Lord!" Lu Xiao and Meng Zirou saluted in unison. He was not surprised by the gaze of Shiyue. Taoist Xuanmu's spiritual power was so profound that even though he was severely injured, he gave it to Li Mubai.
Most of them, and the remaining ones, have also made rapid changes in their cultivation. Naturally, these cannot escape the eyes of Biting Moon.
Shiyue did not answer. He stared coldly at the two people kneeling on the ground. After a long while, he lazily replied: "Get up!"
The two stood up and glanced at the three people kneeling beside Long Xiao and couldn't help but sneer in their hearts. The first time Meng Zirou walked into this meeting hall, she was attracted by a huge gem next to the throne. This
The gemstone does not have a very gorgeous appearance or colorful colors. It is orange-yellow in color, resembling a cooked egg yolk, but it is as big as a basketball. What is strange is that there are traces of black flashing on it.
It's like something is imprisoned inside and wants to break out of the cocoon.
Lu Xiao did not notice Meng Zirou's expression. He took a step forward, bowed and saluted: "Congratulations, Demon Lord. With the assistance of the Second Protector and the Eighth General named Long, my subordinates fortunately lived up to their orders and completely annihilated the Pingle Kingdom."
Got it!"
Long Xiao and the other three raised their heads in astonishment, looking at the calm Lu Xiao who was angry and scared. They never thought that Lu Xiao would have such courage. Not only did he cover up his surrender to the enemy perfectly, but he also changed his identity.
They became the great contributors to killing the enemy and quelling the chaos. If the Demon Lord really believed Lu Xiao, then the three of them would not only have no merit, but they would also be charged with slandering the Great Protector. If they didn't do it well, they would even lose their lives.
here.
Thinking of this, Long Yuan was the first to ask: "Lu Xiao, don't talk nonsense here and try to take credit. If you hadn't surrendered to the enemy on the battlefield and helped the people from the Pingle Kingdom to constantly set up traps to ambush us, the Second Guardian would never have done it.
Even if you lose your life on the battlefield, so many of our brothers will not lose their lives. This is all your fault!"
"Do you know that just by what you say now, I can make you die ten thousand times!" Lu Xiao turned around coldly and looked down at Long Xiao who was kneeling on the ground, his handsome face
The sky was filled with cold murderous intent.
Long Xiao timidly shrank back, and then realized that he had no way out. He simply let go of his courage, climbed a few steps forward, and kowtowed to the ground with a "dong dong": "Demon Lord, you must
Make the decision for me! The evidence is conclusive that Lu Xiao surrendered to the enemy and treason. You must not believe his one-sided words, which will chill the heart of the deceased!"
The Demon Lord was secretly proud. He really needed such a fool to stir up a good show for himself. On the surface, he glared at Long Xiao with pretended annoyance, and sternly scolded him: "You are so brave! How dare you do that?
You openly slandered the Great Protector in front of me, if you don’t speak clearly today, I will let you die without a burial place!”
Everyone present understood what Shiyue meant. Although on the surface it seemed that he was reprimanding Long Xiao, in fact he had pointed the finger at Lu Xiao. In other words, today Long Xiao, you have to punish Lu Xiao no matter what.
All the charges must be laid out, otherwise there would be no chance of leaving alive.
Naturally, Long Xiao also thought of this, plucked up the courage, and responded loudly: "Yes, my subordinates must come from the truth! Lu Xiao kept saying that he wiped out the Pingle Kingdom, but when we went in, there was no
I didn't see his shadow. He only appeared suddenly after the Second Protector died in battle. If he really wanted to help, why didn't he show up as soon as possible and discuss with the Second Protector a comprehensive strategy to defend against the enemy?
Let us lose our troops to this extent!"
"How do you know that I didn't discuss it with Long Mastiff in advance? Do you need to know all the contacts between us?" Lu Xiao looked at Long Xiao who was kneeling on the ground with disdain, and couldn't help feeling relaxed. Just because of this fool,
You can send him away without any effort at all!
——"When you were crossing the weak water, I sent the Feihe message to the Dragon Mastiff, but that arrogant guy didn't answer at all. What else do you want me to do? Moreover, after you attack the Pingle Kingdom
Who has notified me before? Who has considered that I am trapped in a tight siege. Once any abnormality is discovered, how will I escape? Is it possible that I will take Rou'er and the dozen or so people under me to thousands of people from the Peaceful Kingdom?
Can I prove my innocence by fighting head-on?"
"Then why didn't you show up in time when we rushed into the paradise, but you waited for the second guardian to die before jumping out to receive the merit. Moreover, with the cultivation of that white python spirit, it is impossible to defeat him.
After passing the Second Protector, how could you take off the Second Protector's head so easily? Aren't you guys secretly causing trouble?" Long Xiao was a little anxious. He had already learned about Lu Xiao's keen thinking and superb argumentation skills.
I heard it. If there is no factual basis, it is absolutely wishful thinking to bring down this guy.
"Show up in time? Do you know where we were at that time? How dangerous is it?" Lu Xiao looked at Long Xiao like an idiot, and said calmly: "The strategy of Pingle Kingdom is to move most of the people away.
Only a small group of people were left to resist. But you idiots only knew how to attack from the front, and did not notice that two or three thousand of them were about to escape. If it weren't for the dozen of us who desperately tried to intercept them, and the Xuan
The guards arrived in time, do you think we can achieve the final victory? As for the death of Dragon Mastiff, I am afraid only he himself will know what happened? Do you think I am right, Demon Lord?"
Lu Xiao's sudden words made Biting Moon stunned. Then he immediately realized that Lu Xiao had already guessed about the blood-condensed nectar, so he could only nod slightly and responded vaguely: "The second protector should be underestimating the enemy.
If you will end up like this, don't mention it again. Long Xiao, if you only have these doubts and then make false claims that the Great Protector has surrendered to the enemy, are you getting impatient?"
"No, no, no, Demon Lord, please listen to what I have to say. Even if the Great Protector is innocent, what about the Third Protector? Why didn't she appear on the battlefield from the beginning to the end? If she was willing to take action, we wouldn't have injured so many people.
People!" Long Xiao knew in his heart that if he wanted to make a fuss about the thoughtful Lu Xiao, he might not be able to do it. But if Meng Zirou was caught, Lu Xiao would definitely not be able to escape the involvement.
"I've been blocking the enemy from behind. Do you think it's easy for just a few of us to stop thousands of people?" Meng Zirou answered coldly, as if the flames of anger had already been ignited in her purple eyes: "
All my men are injured, and some of them are still unable to get out of bed, but you are here making random suspicions. Do you believe that I will turn you into a roast chicken now to pay homage to the souls of those who died in the battlefield?"
