As soon as Zuo Feng spat out these four simple words, it was like a spark falling into boiling oil, igniting the entire square in an instant.
"Okay, Shen Feng, that's great."
"I support you. We are just here to see you. If we make a bet, I will definitely put pressure on you."
"If you extinguish his arrogance, the painter boy will be very unhappy."
Countless people in the square expressed their support for Zuo Feng, and began to support Zuo Feng overwhelmingly. It must be said that Zuo Feng's victory over Guizhu greatly won over the lowest-ranking warriors in the Xuanwu Empire.
Xuan Hong, who was standing on the high platform, naturally saw the reaction of the crowd below clearly. His face also became more gloomy, as if it was dripping with cold water.
Xuan Hong was ambitious and hoped to take all the supreme power of the Xuanwu Empire into his own hands through a series of plans and means. For this purpose, he did not hesitate to bear the humiliation, raise the issue with Hu, and take risks in military operations. , but the result was still unpredictable to him.
But after years of depression and endless desire for everything the Xuan family once had, he strengthened his faith and reached this point.
The young man named Shen Feng in front of him is less than twenty years old and has only been in the imperial capital for seven or eight days. But now it seems that he has won over more than half of the people in the imperial capital, which is what he has always dreamed of. Things, then people's hearts.
In the struggle between the empire's top officials and the various super-times, and the battles between them, he can achieve his goal by reshuffling the cards through scheming, calculation, and a series of means. But the human heart is always an elusive existence. You don't know You never know when your heart will lead you, or when your heart will turn away from you.
At this moment, Xuan Hong's murderous intention towards Zuo Feng was so strong that it even surpassed that towards several other super aristocratic families. Not only did this young man know some of the secrets of the Xuan family, he now had at least more than half of the support from the imperial capital.
Qu Li, who was standing aside, secretly glanced at the change in Xuan Hong's expression and guessed what Xuan Hong was thinking. He hesitated for a moment and then whispered.
"The king doesn't need to worry too much. From the looks of it, this kid is definitely suffering from the phosphorus-removing poison. Although I don't know what method he used to resolve it, the torture of the phosphorus-removing poison is no joke. This kid probably only has one life left now, so now is a good opportunity to get rid of him in an honest and fair manner."
Xuan Hong turned his head slightly and glanced at Qu Li, and said: "Didn't you tell me the same thing at the beginning? But this kid is still alive today. If he really participated in the competition and finally got the medicine, As for the title, please teach me how to choose it.
You see, the Yao family and the Su family are already ready to take action. If that kid’s life is in danger, do you think they will just ignore it? Huh?”
At the end of the sentence, Xuan Hong snorted coldly and turned his gaze back to the high platform below. He didn't know whether he was angry at Qu Li, angry because of Zuo Feng, or both.
But Qu Li had a smile in his eyes, looking at the high platform made of white jade marble, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, it seems that the king has forgotten that this high platform was originally built for the grand ceremony, because it was built in the square. , a set of formations have been deployed to prevent interference."
When the word "formation" was spoken, Xuan Hong's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he nodded with a smile and said: "Yes, there is also that set of formations. As long as that set of formations can stand up, Within a quarter of an hour, internal and external forces cannot break it, and the people inside cannot come out. This game is good, but the next step is to let the people on the high platform understand our intentions."
Qu Li said confidently: "Don't worry, Lord, it cost a lot of money for the painter to obtain the title for this painting. This painting will not give up this opportunity no matter what. Now that Chen Feng has arrived, he is probably worse than Everyone wanted him to die, but Shen Feng did not hesitate to anger the other person.
Moreover, the Lord, look at the people on the high platform, which side has the upper hand?"
After Qu Li's reminder, Xuan Hong immediately looked carefully again, but this time he paid attention to the people participating in the competition, which family they belonged to, and which faction they belonged to. After seeing this, he immediately understood Qu Li's There was a hint that the Gui family and the Painter family were slightly superior in number and cultivation, so he smiled and nodded.
"Okay, just do as you say. I believe that once the formation is activated, those above will soon understand our intentions. We must kill this kid, otherwise even if we spend more materials, we must give up the formation. The law continues like this."
Qu Li nodded, without any further hesitation, he took two steps forward and approached the edge of the stand and shouted in a deep voice: "No one is allowed to make any noise. This is the Xuanwu Medicine Competition Ceremony, and irrelevant people must not interfere. Listen to the order and activate the protective formation."
Under the white high platform, there were several strong men who had just entered the Qi-sensing stage. These people had been guarding the high platform. After hearing Qu Li's order, they were slightly stunned. They immediately took out a trapped spirit stone and inserted it without hesitation. Among several special grooves around the high platform.
The next moment, a light blue transparent mask suddenly formed around the entire high platform. The moment this mask appeared, the inside was completely isolated from the outside world.
Although those warriors were also surprised, the order they received was to activate the defensive formation at the critical moment. However, in the past, they were just a formality here, and no one had ever really dared to disturb the ceremony. But now there is an order from above, and they Even though I don’t understand it, I still have to implement it.
Qu Li's order surprised everyone. The people in the square below who had previously supported Zuo Feng also looked at the scene in front of them in astonishment. Of course they would not be crazy enough to rush to the high platform to cause trouble, but the king actually did Because there was a few noises here, the defensive formation was launched directly.
The ones who were briefly stunned were the Kang Suyao family, but when the defensive formation was activated, they immediately understood it. However, once the formation was activated, even if they wanted to destroy it, they would not be able to do it within a quarter of an hour. .
And if we take action at this time, it will undoubtedly mean that we have to show off our cards with the other party right now.
The Huagui and Huagui families were also surprised and gradually came to their senses. Then they all smiled and looked at Suyao with mocking expressions on their faces.
Ye Lin, people from Fengtian and Dacai now understand, but most of these people have the mentality of "watching the excitement". Among them, only Anxiong has a gloomy face, and he is really worried about Zuo Feng.
Those on the high platform who participated in the competition to select medicines did not understand what was going on at first. But they soon understood. Some people gradually showed hostility towards Zuo Feng, while others showed conflicting looks.
, some people looked at Zuo Feng with worried eyes.
"Haha, it seems that you kid has offended a lot of people. I just told you to go away and you still won't leave. What did you say before, 'I'm not qualified enough?' I'm going to let you see clearly now, whether I'm qualified enough or not."
.”
When the formation was opened, Hua Ming didn't understand it at first, but when he looked towards the high platform where the king was sitting, he saw Qu Li looking at him with a smile, and nodded lightly, and suddenly he also
Then I understood the other party’s intention.
If Zuo Feng was in his usual state, he wouldn't dare to fight against him. After all, he couldn't even defeat the ghost hunter. But the young man in front of him was extremely weak, and his cultivation level fluctuated up and down. He seemed to be at the peak of his cultivation level.
Signs of decline.
The opponent is in such poor condition, and he is now one level higher than the opponent and has reached the peak of the tempering period. This is a great time to kill the opponent.
Now both the Guihua and the Guihua family hate Zuo Feng, but they just don't have a legitimate reason to kill him. Zuo Feng didn't speak well before, so he took this opportunity to get rid of him, and he will definitely gain the favor of the Guihua and the other two families.
Able to qualify for the final competition.
In addition, after the battle with Guizhan in front of him, Chen Feng became even more famous in the Xuanwu Imperial Capital. If he could kill the opponent, he would immediately step on the opponent and become famous everywhere.
With so many benefits in front of him, Hua Ming could not hesitate. "Haha" he said with a smile: "It was originally announced that I would be the one to fill the qualifications for selecting medicines in this competition. Now that you are here, I can consider giving it to you."
You don't know what to do, so I'm going to teach you a lesson, and no one else needs to take action."
As soon as these words came out, Xuan Hong and Qu Li, who were in the stands, almost cursed. What they wanted to create such a situation was to kill Zuo Feng, but now Hua Ming said something like this
This made it difficult for others to take action. The two of them were so angry that they were helpless even though the other party had already spoken loudly.
Zuo Feng glanced coldly at the defensive formations erected around him. With his current understanding of runes and formations, he now understood that this formation was effective in both directions. That is, outsiders could not enter, and people inside could not get out.
Right now, he and the other contestants are imprisoned here.
Taking a deep breath, Zuo Feng's eyes instantly turned cold. Naturally, he came this time to participate in the ceremony of selecting medicines. He had worked so hard to get to where he is today, and he couldn't give up here.
Although the idea of obtaining the antidote from Yao Tuozi had been shattered when Yao Tuozi attacked him, the Crystal of the Imperial Formation was something he must obtain, so even though he was in a bad state, he still rushed over.
Before coming here, I thought that the situation might be very bad, but I didn't expect that it would be a deadly fight in a cage. But Zuo Feng was not afraid at all. The sins he had suffered in the past two days and the anger he had been holding back in his heart,
I'm looking for someone to vent to.
The soles of his feet were slowly raised, and it seemed a bit difficult to step forward, but Zuo Feng's eyes were filled with a biting chill, and he instantly locked onto Hua Ming opposite him as he took a step forward.
