In the darkness of night, the atmosphere suddenly became stagnant.
A chilling atmosphere filled the night sky.
The military formation that surrounded the entire inn became increasingly fierce.
Lu He and Yue Ting each stretched out their hands and placed them on the hilts of their swords, their expressions solemn.
Zhuang Ming's expression remained normal, and he stretched out his hand to caress the fleshy patch on Jiaolong's head.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
All in silence.
The more silent it is, the more chilling it feels.
——
The deputy commander also felt heavy in his heart.
The voice just now came from the commander-in-chief.
The commander-in-chief is stationed in the southernmost territory, holding heavy troops to resist the wild monsters, killing countless people, and is extremely majestic.
Zhuang Ming's words were slightly provocative.
"Is it possible that we have to fight?"
The deputy commander couldn't help but put his hand on the handle of the knife, his face gradually becoming serious.
The reputation of this Dragon Lord has become quite famous recently.
He is known as Mr. Thirteen and Mr. Taixu.
Judging from the previous rumors, the reputation is not good.
Thirty-sixth on the Dongzhou Talent List, but his achievements are all due to Jiaolong. His own cultivation level is unknown, but it is very likely that he has not achieved the Tao Seal.
After becoming famous, there were countless turmoils. Many practitioners were dissatisfied and went to challenge him, but no trace was found.
There is news that in order to protect the 36th person on the list of outstanding people in Dongzhou, this thirteenth gentleman can be said to have been hiding in Tibet, from the Dongyuan Realm to the Nanyuan Realm, and then disappeared from the Nanyuan Realm's peaceful area, and his trace is still unknown.
.
How did it suddenly appear in this extreme southern border?
Beforehand, he would have thought that this Dragon Lord came to the 23rd Prefecture of the Far South Frontier in order to escape the turmoil.
But now, he knows that the rumors of avoiding war are just rumors.
Yin Yuzhou, who had fought against the 25th person on the list of outstanding figures in Dongzhou, was killed.
Number 36 on the Dongzhou Talent List?
After today, I'm afraid I will be ranked 25th on the Dongzhou Talent List.
I wonder if it will stir up dissatisfaction among more people? Or will it shock more people and give up the idea of challenging it?
Probably the latter is the majority?
A more difficult person than Yin Yuzhou!
And he is younger than Yin Yuzhou and has a bright future.
"What a great Huanlong Lord."
In the dark night, a man walked out. He looked like a middle-aged man, holding a knife in one hand and with a cold face.
Behind him, soldiers formed an array.
The blood energy and murderous aura seemed to converge on this middle-aged man through invisible threads.
Let this middle-aged man become extremely powerful.
Take control of the elite leaders of Zhenshan City!
"The Blood God Banner and everything else, all belong to me."
Zhuang Ming looked indifferent, even with a bit of arrogance, and said coldly: "You can take Yin Yuzhou's body away and return it to the top, but I killed him, and his relics belong to me."
The commander-in-chief came closer and said, "I'm afraid it's against the rules."
Zhuang Ming said slowly: "What rules? I am a cultivator, so I naturally recognize the rules of a cultivator. I fought with him and defeated him. It is natural for me to obtain what he left behind... and the Great Chu Dynasty did not
Which law stipulates that all belongings of the person I kill must be handed over to the government?"
The Commander-in-Chief said calmly: "Yin Yuzhou has been killing people unintentionally recently, and the higher-ups are taking this very seriously."
Zhuang Ming said: "One corpse is enough to revive you."
The Commander-in-Chief looked at him deeply and said slowly: "This Blood God Banner is an evil thing. What does Mr. Thirteen want with this evil thing?"
Zhuang Ming gently stroked the dragon and said, "Are you interrogating a prisoner?"
The commander-in-chief suddenly laughed and said: "Although Yin Yuzhou is a wanted criminal, you are not a member of my government. You have no authority to enforce the law and are not qualified to kill. From a certain point of view, if you kill him, you will
A murder case was committed.”
Zhuang Ming nodded and said, "Then you try to catch me?"
The commander was silent for a moment, and finally laughed and said: "What a good master, Mr. Taixu. It seems that he is very confident. The rumors in the world are not credible. However, what do you want this evil thing to do?"
"Evil things?"
Zhuang Ming mentioned the Blood God Banner and said: "If it can be used, it is also a magic weapon for self-defense and killing enemies. If it cannot be used, I can go to the market and sell a few bottles of spirit-gathering pills for use. Although this thing It is an evil thing. The method of refining it is harmful to the harmony of heaven and earth, but it is not refined by me. If it falls into my hands, use it for good. This thing is good. Use it for evil. This thing is evil. I will not use it for evil. So is it."
The commander-in-chief said with deep meaning: "That's not what you said."
Zhuang Ming smiled and said: "A sword can also kill people. If it kills evil people, it is a good sword. If one day it kills a good person, it is an evil sword."
When the commander heard this, his face darkened slightly.
Zhuang Ming's words were full of profound meaning.
This word refers not only to the sword, but also to the person.
The elites of Dachu are the swords in the hands of senior figures in Dachu.
For the Chu soldiers and generals, all it takes is a military order to direct the sword's direction.
But whether the direction of the blade is good or evil is not determined by them.
It was decided by the top figures in charge of the military.
"Don't talk nonsense. We don't have any friendship. I don't have to give you my things to restore my life."
Zhuang Ming said: "The Blood God Banner is a priceless treasure in the hands of Yin Yuzhou. But in the hands of Da Chu, it may not be useless. Of course, for me, it is not of much use, but in any case, I can still sell some spirit-gathering pills... "
The commander-in-chief suddenly sheathed his sword, gave up his murderous intent, and asked, "What do you want?"
Zhuang Ming raised his eyebrows, pointed at his waist, and said, "Knife."
The commander's expression changed and he said in a deep voice: "Want me to wear a sword?"
Zhuang Ming shook his head with a smile and said: "You are the standard sword in the army, and as a commander, the power of the sword is similar to a magic weapon. This is a recorded saber. I am not a Dachu sergeant, so I don't want this sword, but I If it’s a sword that’s not registered, I don’t care if it’s a military sword or not, but it can’t be worse than your sword…”
The commander's face changed slightly, but he did not speak.
If it were an ordinary real person, he would have already struck it with one strike.
Where does all this nonsense come from?
But Lord Huan Long is even more feared than rumored.
He is in silence.
Zhuang Ming's lips curled up into a smile.
The deputy commander felt awe-inspiring in his heart, and the surrounding soldiers began to gather murderous intent.
The Blood God Banner must be handed over to serve as evidence of guilt!
The commander-in-chief is extremely powerful and never compromises!
According to the past behavior, a battle today is inevitable.
"I promise you."
The commander-in-chief suddenly spoke up.
Everyone's expressions changed.
How could the commander-in-chief compromise so easily?
Zhuang Ming threw the Blood God Flag and said: "A magic weapon like the Blood God Flag is not inferior to this sword, or even better. But today, you and I have formed a good relationship... I practice When it’s not done, he’s a businessman.”
This last sentence seems to have a deeper meaning.
The commander-in-chief looked at him deeply, nodded and said: "Okay!"
Zhuang Ming tilted his head and ordered: "Pack it up and be careful. Don't be careless with things left by such evil people. As for the Blood God Flag, just wait for the commander to send you a knife to replace it."
After saying that, he waved his hand and went back to his room.
