Chapter 494 Recalcitrance

The mighty armored guard arrived at Wen's house half an hour after leaving the county palace.

"Surround the entire house and prohibit anyone from entering or leaving!" Mu Liantian waved his arm and gave an order to the armored guards.

As soon as Mu Liantian's words fell, the armored guards quickly and methodically surrounded the entire Wen's house.

"Hey!"

At the same time, a strange sound came from the Wen's house.

Immediately afterwards, one could see a dazzling brilliance gathering over the entire courtyard. After about a breathing time, the halo radiated and enveloped the entire Wen's house.

Guard formation!

The Wen family has obviously activated the guardian formation!

Arrays are not something that can be done after the layout is completed, but also need to be maintained regularly. Moreover, the activation of the formation requires energy consumption. Therefore, under normal circumstances, even the guardian formation in the county palace will not be open for a long time. Only when facing an attack, will the invasion of regional enemies be activated.

The more advanced the formation, the more amazing the energy it consumes after activation. The attack formation is more expensive than the defense formation.

Generally, after the low-level defensive formation is activated, even if it is not attacked by the outside world, the resources consumed every hour are more than 100,000 spirit stones. If it is attacked by the outside world, more resources will be consumed, and the specific amount depends on the intensity of the attack.

Jing Yan and the others also gradually flew over the edge of Wen's house. In this position, one can clearly sense the energy fluctuations transmitted from the guardian formation of Wen's house.

Zhou Shangyun squinted his eyes, staring at the protective formation in the courtyard below, the corners of his mouth slightly twitched.

Obviously, the Wen family planned to resist. However, this was also expected by Zhou Shangyun. A big family like the Wen family would not be captured without a fight. Even if they knew they were invincible, they would definitely resist to the end.

Inside the Wen family's house, the patriarch Wen Lan led many strong men of the Wen family to a certain place, staring at the county king and others outside.

"Patriarch! Our guardian formation may not be able to stop us for a long time. There are too many experts in the Taoist realm." An elder of the Wen family said solemnly.

"Let's see first! Let's see how many people will attack my Wen family." In Wen Lan's slender eyes, coldness flowed.

He also saw that behind the king of the county, the Lu family and other families, as well as the heads of the three major colleges, etc.,

There are also leaders of many second-rate forces. However, Wen Lan doesn't think that these people will do anything, and most of them should be on the sidelines.

"Wen Lan! You, Wen family, are one of the four great families in Lanqu County, yet you hire a night killer to assassinate my martial arts genius in Lanqu County. This is an unforgivable crime. As the king of Lanqu County, I must not allow A cancer like your family poisons the entire county and hinders the development of the county." Zhou Shangyun mobilized his vitality, and his voice rumbled out.

Not only the Wen family could hear clearly, but also the countless warriors watching from afar could also hear clearly.

If Zhou Shangyun wanted to eradicate Wen's family, he naturally needed to let the people in Lanqu County know the reason. As the king of the county, he must stand up for reason, otherwise many people will criticize him behind his back.

"My lord!" Wen Lan's voice came.

"You said that my Wen family hired a night killer to assassinate a martial arts genius in Lanqu County. Is there any evidence?" Wen Lan definitely wouldn't admit it.

"Patriarch Wen Lan, I'm afraid you would never have imagined that Mr. Yin, the ace of the night you hired, couldn't kill me, right?" Jing Yan stepped forward, looked at Wen Lan with a sneer and said.

Wen Lan's eyes instantly fixed on Jing Yan. He hated Jing Yan so much that he gritted his teeth, hated it to the bone, and wished he could tear the flesh off Jing Yan's body. Originally thought that hiring Mr. Yin would be safe, but unexpectedly, Jing Yan was still alive. Even Mr. Yin, the ace of the night, might be dead.

"Little thief Jing Yan, don't be so arrogant. Everyone knows that you and my Wen family have long had enmity, so you took this opportunity to frame him. Hehe, do you think you can do whatever you want because you are close to the county king? In this world, there is justice." Wen Lan said righteously, as if Jing Yan joined forces with the county king to bully his family.

He deliberately portrayed the Wen family as a weaker party to gain sympathy.

"Really? It is true that many people know that I have an enmity with your Wen family. It makes sense for you to say that I framed your Wen family. But I want to ask you, does Mr. Yin, the ace of the night, also have a grudge against you?" Family feud?" Jing Yan shouted angrily.

"A joke! My Wen family has never had any contact with Mr. Yin, how could there be any hatred?" Wen Lan sneered.

"That's weird. I don't understand why Mr. Yin said you hired him." Jing Yan said with a puzzled expression.

"Little thief, stop talking nonsense. Don't fool everyone. You said that Mr. Yin said that I hired him. Is there any evidence? If there is no evidence, you are talking nonsense. You think that what you say is the truth when you open your mouth." Is it?" Wen Lan roared angrily.

"Really? Then look, what is this?"

Jing Yan moved his palm slightly, and a colorful spar appeared.

This colored spar, many people recognize, is a kind of memory crystal, which can reproduce the scenes that happened in memory for a period of time, including sounds and images.

Vigorously energized, a colorful ripple rippled from the spar. Then, on the sky, a clear phantom appeared.

In this phantom, there are two figures and a relatively blurred city building.

Seeing this scene, Wen Lan's eyes flashed, and a trace of panic appeared on his face. He knew that something was wrong.

Zhou Shangyun stared at Xuying, Mu Liantian stared at Xuying, Wen's family stared at Xuying, and everyone stared at Xuying.

Everyone present recognized one of the phantoms as Jing Yan. As for the other phantom, many people don't recognize it, but those important people obviously recognize it. The one standing opposite Jing Yan is Mr. Yin, the ace of the night.

"Then the reason why you want to kill me is because of the employment of the Wen family in Lanqu County? How much did the Wen family pay to hire you, the leader of the dark night?" Jing Yan's phantom said.

The sound spread throughout the entire Wen's house.

All around, quiet down and listen carefully.

Just now Wen Lan said that the Wen family had a grudge against Jing Yan, and that Jing Yan took the opportunity to retaliate. Indeed, many people believed that there was such a possibility.

"It is indeed my family head, Wen Lan, who hired me to kill you..." Mr. Yin's phantom words made everyone present look terrified.

Everyone is not a fool, combined with the situation at the time, and what Mr. Yin said. Everyone suddenly realized that what Mr. Yin was telling the truth was indeed the Wen family who hired him.
