The sky and the earth changed suddenly, trembling like a transparent frozen object, and finally returned to calm.
After everything returned to normal, the position of the hook has changed. He and Tong Yao appeared together at the door of Fengyue Tower. Both of them returned to their original positions before they entered the Fengyue Tower, that is, before the area enveloped by Immortal Breath. It's just that the fairy breath has disappeared without a trace.
Fengyuelou guests are full of guests, and it is very lively, as if the life and death struggle they had experienced all night has never happened.
Gou Zhu used the position of the moon in the sky to estimate the current time. He probably entered the field at Xushi, and it is now almost halfway through Haishi. He eats, drinks, talks and laughs in the banquet, plus the time to fight back, it's roughly an hour.
This shows that when he was besieged by this strange aura, the passage of time inside and outside was normal.
Fengyuelou has been opening its doors until early morning. The first half of the night was deserted because the lord Kapok booked the venue himself. After Kapok left, there were more guests in the second half of the night.
If they found out that the maids and mates were dead, they should have cleared all the customers long ago and called the monks from the city defense department to investigate. But at this time, there was no change in the entire Kapok City.
Could it be that everything that happened just now in this weird breath is actually out of the world, so it didn’t happen?
Goujiu was extremely puzzled. Obviously Kapok, Tongfeng and others have become puppets just now. I wonder if these people know themselves? After this spell is over, can they recover?
No matter how you explain it, this thing is extremely strange. Mu Chengsi should have controlled Kapok, Tongfeng and others, but this move should not be able to harm them. Otherwise, Mu Chengsi doesn't need to control these people to hunt him down, just use this magic to kill him.
"Don't go back to the city wall. I have already sent Miao Mu and the others over. Let's go to the secret stronghold."
The calmer this place now looks, the more strange and infinite the demeanor. He would not stay in such an unsafe place for too long.
Gouzhu and Tong Yao quickly disappeared into the bustling street. After a while, they appeared in an alley connected by many single-door houses. He walked into a courtyard, closed the door in the room and lit the oil lamp.
This place is one of the secret strongholds they rented in advance. It has one hall, one hall, one bedroom, and two wing rooms. Although simple, it is enough to house him, Mu Shu, Mu Fei and Tong Yao.
Paying the rent for one year at a time, it is only a mere two or three dollars of blood spirit stone. This is still relatively cheap in the folk blood spirit stone of the demon world. If it were among the mortals in the human world, renting such a house for one year of blood and spirit stone would be enough.
After Gouzhu arrived in Kapok City, he rented several residences as secret strongholds. Every time he goes out, everyone will change his breath.
He just planned that if something troubles, everyone just hides in the secret residence and does not go out to show their faces. Others can't track their breath, unless they are searched house by house, they cannot be found at all.
As long as Lian Ling comes to Kapok City, the spirit between him and Lian Ling will have a feeling, don't worry about not being able to meet.
Tong Yao's face turned pale. She forced the soul out of the body in that strange breath, causing the soul to be damaged. Although her damage can be repaired quickly, she has no chance to run all the way. When she finally got here, she went into the bedroom to meditate and calm the nerves.
Mu Mu and Mu Fei are already on their way, but have not arrived yet. Sit alone in the room. He finally had the opportunity to think carefully about all this experience that night.
He considered various dangers in advance. But he did not expect that the false prince Mu Chengsi would be the man behind this trap. This person is not on the list of kapok invitations at all. The more than 300,000 taels of blood spirit stones harvested by the beast tide had nothing to do with this person at all.
If there is any grudge between him and Mu Seung-si, the only release worth mentioning is that Mu Seung-si and Mu Mu are both "candidates" for the son of the tree emperor. Could it be that Mu Chengsi dealt with him in order to deal with Mu, and eliminate the competitors for the position of Demon King in advance?
Gouzhu shook his head secretly, and quickly denied the idea. Everyone knew Mu Chengsi who claimed to be the son of the Demon Emperor, but very few people knew that Mu was the son of the real Tree Emperor.
Wood has an innate tree body. In the Jade Palace, there are only a few people such as Lian Ling and Lian Ping, let alone linking him to the prince.
This matter in the Demon Realm should be even less known, otherwise, I don’t know how many passers-by are going to kill them. They will either chase down or hold this potential young man who hopes to sit in the position of the Demon Emperor.
Although the tree elder who had contacted Lian Ling knew about this, he had not seen the appearance of the wood, let alone knowing what identity they came here. It shouldn't be possible to think of the existence of the prince from a small formation division of the Assassin Tower.
If it is not to deal with wood, then the trap that Mu Chengsi laid is to deal with Ji Yan, Lei Yan and him. It's just that both Ji Yan and Lei Yan have been bought in some way, but the other party only didn't negotiate any terms with him and directly planned to kill him.
What do you plan to deal with the three of them? Is it to break the Tower of Thorns? The three of them were not there at the same time and could not return. Although the Tower of Thorns had inherent defenses, it was only a dead tower, and it was easy to break through with a little thought.
This is easy to verify. If the Assassin Tower is breached, there will be news flying all over the sky after dawn. And if Ji Yan had betrayed on duty, he would never show up again.
What's the point of breaking through a tower of thorns? There was a sudden chill in the heart of Gouzhu. Could the real purpose of Mu Chengsi and others be to let the beast wave destroy Kapok City?
Kapok City has a strong defense against beast tides, but the most important defense is on the three defense towers in three directions. Any one of these towers was breached, and the other two towers lost their meaning at the same time.
Mu Chengsi, the false prince, is behind the ghost owl. Since the resurrection of the Night King, the ghost owl family has been ambitious.
The ancient demon king obviously wanted to take advantage of the chaos of the tree clan to add a handful of firewood, so he sent Mu Chengsi to Kapok City. They also want to take this opportunity to destroy the defenses of Kapok City from inside, and let the beast tide capture Kapok City?
Once Kapok City falls, hundreds of thousands of ordinary people and monks will have to be reduced to the blood of beasts. Without this fortress, Mian'e Mountain was directly exposed to the front of the foreign race. Moreover, the beast tide that has enough blood to eat and restores its vitality will also greatly destroy the defense of Mian'e Mountain.
If this is the plan of the Night King, then it makes sense. The ghost owl is likely to be planning a big plan again. It's just that it was Bone Eagle Peak last time, and this time the target was Mian'e Mountain of the Tree Clan.
Ghost Owl’s army may have been secretly mobilized, waiting for Kapok City to be engulfed by the beast tide, and then after the beast tide attacked Mian Ei Mountain, they then seized the opportunity to capture the Mian Ei Mountain and push the Dark Night King to the position of the Demon King!
So Mu Chengsi, who calls himself the prince, was a cover from the beginning. The Night King did not intend to really help the false prince to the upper position, but let him mix into the Kapok City and destroy the defenses of the Kapok City from the inside ~EbookFREE.me~ Gouzhu fought the Night King in the Ghost Howl Palace. He swallowed the Night King's Nine-Ranking God Pill, and also gave the Night King a large string of Hellfire Orbs.
It is hard to imagine how this ancient king would feel when he saw him again. If it weren't for Lin Ling to wait here, his first thought would be to run as far as he could.
Of course he is not a villain, but he is not a righteous man either. The lives of hundreds of thousands of ordinary people in the demon world are really not his turn to come forward. Reporting this incident to the City Defense Department anonymously was the only thing he could do.
But this big scheme of the Night King will also affect Lian Ling's plan. Lian Ling intends to support the wood to ascend the position of the demon emperor. If the tree clan’s old nest is handed over by the ghost owl, her plan will naturally be aborted.
He has to notify Lian Ling as soon as possible so that she can respond in time. But now he and Lian Ling don't know how many miles apart, and there is no way to contact them. The only feasible way is to wait in place.
The distance is really insurmountable. Even if the souls are connected, they will be cut off by this long distance.
But the cause and effect of life and death between them is still involved. If even Ling died, he would also die. So he is alive now, the only relief is that Lian Ling must not die.
Gouzhu opened the window, climbed up, sitting on the empty roof, looking to the south, he could only see a deep dark night. It is said that there is a sea of fire in the extreme south, named Nanming. Lian Ling said that the place was too dangerous to let him go.
He agreed to split up with her. But after half a year, the worries in my heart are better than day after day. Will she come back without incident? Can they meet again?
Knowing this a long time ago, I decided not to separate. Even if it is death, it is better to die together than not to meet each other? He thought regretfully.
