One thousand eight hundred and thirty Emperor Palace Hunter
"Situ Nan, brother Yunxiao invites you!"
In response to Yun Xiao's question, the guy who called himself Situ Nan did not hesitate at all. Instead, he raised the wine glass in front of him and spoke to Yun Xiao like he was familiar with it.
"Situ Nan? Could it be..."
Suddenly hearing this name, Yun Xiao's heart skipped a beat, secretly thinking that this place was already close to the Eastern Region of Jiuzhong Longxiao. Could it be that he was so lucky that he met a descendant of the Situ family as soon as he arrived?
At that time, the heads of the four major families, Nangong, Murong, Ouyang and Situ, all had a good relationship with Longxiao War God. Unfortunately, they were all destroyed by Lu Qinwan and ceased to exist.
The guy in front of him who calls himself Situ Nan seems to have no respect for the Canglong Imperial Palace. He even dares to remove the wanted notice of the Imperial Palace. He does seem to have a grudge against the Canglong Imperial Palace.
However, just a name did not make Yun Xiao too sure, but he drank the wine in one gulp. At least from this Situ Nan, he had not sensed any hostility yet.
"Brother Yunxiao, do you want to watch a good show?"
Seeing Yun Xiao draining the glass of wine, Situ Nan seemed to be quite happy, but what he said made Yun Xiao feel a little baffled. He secretly said that there was nothing good to watch in the attic?
"Look at the statue of the Emperor and Empress over there. It has been standing in Hongyan City for thirty years. Countless cultivators passing by the statue are all in awe and even worshiping. The majesty of the Emperor and Empress is really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people!
"
Situ Nan was talking eloquently, his eyes flickering slightly as he stared at the statue of the emperor and empress in the distance, and he couldn't tell whether his words were sincere or sarcastic.
"I believe that in a few years, the cultivators of the Nine Layers of Longxiao will only know about the Canglong Emperor Palace, but not their own sects and families, right?"
Although Situ Nan spoke with emotion, he revealed the truth in one sentence, which made De Yunxiao look at him with admiration. He secretly thought that this man was not much older than himself, but he had such vision and insight. He had to be said to be the best among people.
It has been nearly a year since Yun Xiao returned to Jiuzhong Longxiao, and he has experienced many cities. During this period, the things he has seen in the major cities all indicate the big moves of the Canglong Imperial Palace.
, has been implemented blatantly.
Not to mention anything else, the incident at the Hidden Sword Gate in Yecheng was actually a microcosm of the entire plan. Canglong Imperial Palace would definitely kill some powerful families who opposed the merger with the Imperial Palace.
It's just that over the past hundred years, the power of the Canglong Imperial Palace has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Subconsciously, all cultivators subconsciously believe that the Canglong Imperial Palace is unrivaled.
The reason for this is not without the statues of the emperors and empresses. Even if some people are dissatisfied, as long as they see the two statues of the emperors and empresses, they will feel a sense of awe and powerlessness for no reason, and they will no longer be able to resist.
"Brother Yunxiao, keep your eyes open and watch!"
Just as thoughts were surging in Yun Xiao's mind, Situ Nan, who was opposite him, suddenly put away his emotion and instead gave a deep shout, then stretched out his hand and pointed towards the statue of the empress in the square.
call……
Yun Xiao's soul power, half a step up the holy ladder, seemed to sense an invisible force, which erupted from Situ Nan's fingers and then attacked the statue of the emperor and empress in the square.
Wow! Wow!
Just a moment later, under Yun Xiao's unwavering gaze, the statue of the emperor and empress in the distant square exploded with a loud bang, and rubble flew for a moment with an astonishing momentum.
"What's going on?"
The sudden and shocking change made some cultivators who were very close to the statue of the empress change their expressions. Looking at the collapsed rubble, they seemed to be unable to recover for a moment.
"The statue of the emperor and empress... was destroyed?!"
An old man with gray hair seemed to be quite calm. The murmur in his mouth finally brought everyone back. After realizing this fact, their hearts instantly stirred up a storm.
As Situ Nan said, the statue of the Canglong Emperor in Red Rock City has been standing in the central square for thirty years. It has been worshiped by people over the years, and no one dares to touch it.
Who would have thought that today it would be blown to pieces by a mysterious force? This was obviously done deliberately. Who has eaten the dragon's heart and the gall of the phoenix? Dare to blatantly challenge the master of the Canglong Imperial Palace?
At this moment, many cultivators around the square were looking at each other, as if they wanted to find the audacious person who damaged the statue of the emperor and empress, but in the end they found nothing.
Because everyone present looked horrified, and no one looked like someone who had the guts to damage the statue of the empress. What's more, after destroying the statue of the empress, there is no way that people would stand here waiting to be arrested by the imperial palace.
Capture it?
"It seems that Situ Nan is well prepared!"
On the third floor of the attic, seeing the two statues collapse, Yun Xiao couldn't help but feel relieved. At the same time, he glanced at Situ Nan, who had a proud look on his face, and finally confirmed that this guy had nothing to do with the Canglong Imperial Palace.
"What happened?"
At the same time, many cultivators who were also in the three-story attic heard the huge noise coming from outside. They swarmed towards the window and immediately saw the collapsed statue of the emperor and empress in the distance.
"You dare to damage the statue of the emperor and empress. Are you living impatiently?"
One of the cultivators looked like a loyal admirer of the Canglong Imperial Palace. His face was filled with anger at this moment. His eyes were looking around, as if he wanted to find the villain who destroyed the statue at such a long distance.
.
"Mr. Wu, if that person really appears in front of you, I'm afraid you will be so scared that you wet your pants, right?"
The other person seemed to have a long-standing quarrel with Wu Lao Yao. Hearing this, he immediately retorted, and the meaning behind his words made everyone around him think deeply.
"Could it be that the 'Imperial Palace Hunter' has arrived?"
Immediately afterwards, an elderly cultivator with a long beard had a look on his face. After these words were spoken, the entire third floor of the attic suddenly became silent, making Yun Xiao, who was sitting beside him, look confused.
"Imperial Palace Hunter, who is that?"
Yun Xiao came all the way from the west, but he had never heard of the Imperial Palace Hunters, but from these four words, he knew that they were probably those who specifically targeted the Imperial Palace's fellow hunters.
While Yun Xiao only had a blank look on his face, Young Wu, who was filled with anger just now, now had a look of horror on his face. At the same time, he was looking around, as if he was afraid that the so-called Imperial Palace Hunter was hiding among these people.
"This brother should be from the west, right? Even the Imperial Palace Hunters don't know about it?"
The old man with a long beard who spoke earlier seemed kind-hearted, and after hearing Yun Xiao's confused question, he immediately spoke up, and soon he saw the young man in rough clothes nodding.
"In the past few months, all the elders in the imperial palaces in the three cities east of Hongyan City, including the generals, have been slaughtered. The methods are so ruthless that they are simply terrifying.
!”
The old man didn't know what kind of mood he was feeling. When he said these words, there was a trace of awe, a trace of emotion, and a trace of unspeakable envy, all in all.
"Oh? Is there such a thing?"
Hearing what the old man said, Yun Xiao couldn't help but his eyes lit up. He secretly thought that the so-called Imperial Palace Hunter was indeed a member of the same profession. The Imperial Palace that had destroyed three cities in a row had such a record that it was almost the same as his own.
.
Thinking of this, Yun Xiao couldn't help but glance at Situ Nan opposite who was still drinking from a wine glass. At this time, the latter seemed not to care and turned a deaf ear to the old man's words.
Because Yun Xiao had a preconceived idea, he believed that Situ Nan was a descendant of the Situ family. If this was the case, then it would be natural for him to do what he did.
"Boy, what's your expression? Do you think what the hunter from the Imperial Palace did is so satisfying?"
As if he felt that there were no Imperial Hunters here, Wu Laoyao, who was startled just now, suddenly became arrogant again. He looked at Yun Xiao's slightly excited face and immediately started to accuse.
Wu Lao Yao's family has been attached to the Hongyan City Imperial Palace, so this guy naturally supports the Canglong Imperial Palace. At this moment, the statue of the empress was destroyed, and this guy seems to be here to gloat about his misfortune, which makes him very happy.
I can't stand it.
Since the wanted notice for Yun Xiao in Hongyan City had just been posted and was immediately taken away by Situ Nan, these cultivators naturally did not know that the young man in front of them turned out to be someone even the Canglong Emperor and Empress
Important people.
It was true that Yun Xiao's age seemed too young. Wu Laoyao was a cultivator in the middle stage of Tongtian Realm. He asked himself that the rough-clothed young man in front of him could never be stronger than him. This was his real confidence.
"Young Master Wu, what are you trying to do? If the hunter from the Imperial Palace is really here, how dare you say any more nonsense?"
The person who had a problem with Young Master Wu obviously wanted to confront him. However, Young Master Wu, who already knew that there were no imperial palace hunters here, was obviously unable to use this to scare him.
"What does it have to do with you if I'm talking to this kid?"
The youngest Wu seemed to be a little wary of that person. After replying in a rough voice, he turned his gaze back to the boy in rough clothes and said sternly: "Boy, you haven't answered my question yet!"
The youngest Wu was just at the time when the statue of the emperor and empress was destroyed, and he had just been embarrassed in front of everyone. He was eager to regain his face. The young man in rough clothes in front of him undoubtedly became his best target, and he was considered "unlucky"
”.
It seems that the youngest Wu is also looking at what others are doing. He doesn't dare to say a word to the hunter of the Imperial Palace, but who is this kid in front of him? If he dares to show such an expression, he has a way to kill him.
.
But what the youngest Wu didn't see was the flash of teasing in Situ Nan's eyes after he said these words.
