Chapter 974 Old Fox and Little Fox
After the troops withdrew from the Great Zhou, a group of people, including the Great Elder, fell into Yun Sheng's trick of "besieged on all sides" and hurried back to Emperor Hongcheng in a hurry.
After discussing for a while, the Great Elder made the decision and launched a surprise attack on Emperor Hongcheng overnight to regain control of Emperor Hongcheng.
Because he was worried about the people in the Emperor Hong City and found their traces, the Great Elder didn't even dare to use lighting magic. Everyone could only follow the night, pass through the magic restriction outside the Emperor Hong City, and go straight to the Emperor Hong City.
But as soon as he entered the magic forbidden area, the Great Elder felt something was wrong.
These restrictions are familiar to the people in Emperor Hongcheng, and they can pass through them even with their eyes closed on weekdays.
They circumvented the restriction carefully, and were going to sneak into the Emperor Hong City under the cover of night.
However, today I entered the magic restriction.
A cold, magical wind blew by.
Under the feet, in the hard soil, "bang bang bang", countless soil thorns pierced out in one go.
The masters of Emperor Hongcheng were not on guard and injured several people one after another before breaking through the first level of restriction.
But just after passing through the encirclement of the soil thorns, a wall of fire suddenly ignited in front of him.
Walls of fire burned fiercely.
Suddenly, the surroundings turned into a sea of flames, trapping the Great Elder and the others in the sea of flames.
The sea of fire was like oil being poured on it, it burned when it saw people, and devoured it when it saw animals, it was even more ferocious than the earth thorns earlier.
After losing dozens of people, he finally rushed out, the elder cursed secretly in his heart.
Damn it, how many magic circles did the regent of the Yuan family and Da Zhou ambushed beside this piece of restriction?
Finally rushed to the edge of the magic prohibition, the Great Elder and others finally breathed a sigh of relief.
There was a sound in the sky, as if countless mosquitoes were buzzing.
Looking up, everyone was shocked by the situation in front of them.
In the sky, there are a large number of night charms that look like humans and monsters.
Every night charm has green skin, holding a bow and arrow, or holding a halberd in his hand, and is screaming mockingly at the Great Elder and the others.
Under the cover of the night, only the eyes that were glowing green and glowing like fireflies could be seen clearly.
There are as many demons as there are moths.
Among the demons, there is a graceful figure, a dark-skinned elf demon, she stared at the crowd arrogantly, and said coquettishly: "Attack!"
All of a sudden, thorns grew on the ground, and demons launched a fierce attack in the sky.
"Break through, break through this magical restriction," the Great Elder was also irritated, and his mind was still clear in the chaos.
These demons in front of them are just a large number of people. In terms of strength, these strong men in Emperor Hongcheng are far above them.
The Great Elder recognized the situation clearly, found a gap in the restriction, broke through quickly, and led a group of elites from the city, condensing into a force, like a stabbing spear, tearing through the encirclement of Queen Yemei.
This group of masters in Emperor Hongcheng was ultimately superior in strength, but even so, after breaking through the restriction, the number of people had dropped by half.
The Great Elder knew that this action must have alarmed the people in Dihong City, but the matter has come to this point, and they have no way out.
Hundreds of strong men from Emperor Hongcheng rushed to the foot of Emperor Hongcheng in desperation.
At this time, the eastern sky was already a white belly.
The night attack had failed before it even started.
On the city gate, the Yuan family headed by Yuan Wuqu and Yuan Bupo lived condescendingly, confronting the Great Elder and others.
"Yuan Wuqu, you took advantage of the city lord's absence to commit the following crimes, you can be convicted! You don't open the city gate wide, surrender and plead guilty!" The great elder was furious when he saw Yuan's father and son.
The father and son of the Yuan family looked indifferent, and Yuan Wuqu took a step forward: "Great Elder, a branch of my Yuan family has been loyal to Emperor Hongcheng for many years. This time, the rebellion and seizure of the city is also because the city lord and the elders violated the legacy of our ancestors." .Great Elder! Let me ask you, what is the ancestral instruction of the Emperor Hongcheng to establish the city?"
Yuan Wuqu glared angrily.
The Great Elder blushed when asked.
Emperor Hongcheng is a city outside the world. When the first city lord and his wife established the city, they have already established the ancient precepts of their ancestors, one can and one can't.
One thing to do, one branch of Emperor Hongcheng, and the responsibility of defending Emperor Hongdi's tomb from generation to generation. If the Wuji Continent is in danger, you can open the emperor's tomb and join hands with the major forces in the continent to defend the Wuji Continent.
Don't do one thing, future generations, don't be greedy, use Emperor Hongge to fight for hegemony.
Several generations of city lords of Dihong City have followed these two ancient precepts, but in Xuan Sitian's position, Xuan Sitian is unwilling to guard Dihong City and prefers to settle down in a corner.
He lured the elders, first set up the Xueshouyu, and then funded the Hou Qin rebellion behind the scenes. This time, he directly participated in the Great Zhou Rebellion.
The Great Elder and the others already knew it in their hearts, but because they were greedy and taboo about Xuan Sitian's strength, they kept helping the evildoers.
"Great Elder, why, you're speechless. Who is the traitor of Emperor Hongcheng? It's already clear at a glance. The city owner violated the training of the group and committed the same crime as the city residents. According to the law of Emperor Hongcheng, the city owner should be deposed!" Yuan Bupo sneered. with.
"Depose the city lord!"
"Depose the city lord!"
On the city wall, many citizens of Emperor Hongcheng shouted loudly.
There was a wave of sound, and Xuan Meimei and Mrs. Qing, who were escorted by Yuan Bupo and others, went up the city wall together, with pale faces.
"Nonsense! What's wrong with my father? You narrow-minded pedantic people who only know to guard the emperor's tomb are the most damned. Father, come out quickly and kill these wicked people," Xuan Meimei these days, Widowed again, imprisoned again, her mind is on the verge of collapse.
The father and son of the Yuan family looked at the crowd again, and found that Emperor Hong City Lord Xuan Sitian was not in the crowd.
Where did Xuan Sitian go?
Yuan Bupo looked behind him again, and found that Yun Sheng was gone.
In Emperor Hong City, in the pitch-black city lord's mansion.
A ghostly figure crossed the city wall.
"Father and son of the Yuan family, Regent of the Great Zhou Dynasty, although you are proud, when I find the White Tiger Emperor Jade, I will take care of your family," Xuan Sitian sneered.
Xuan Sitian is old and cunning, he failed in Da Zhou, so he rushed back to Dihong City day and night.
He was worried that Baihu Diyu stayed in the city, and during the chaos, something changed.
He secretly followed behind the Great Elder and his group, and sneaked into the City Lord's Mansion quietly when they were ambushed by the magic restraint and confronted the Yuan family father and son.
Before the wife of the city lord died, she only told Xuan Sitian the secret way in her room.
There are special prohibitions on the secret passage, if an outsider wants to break through by force, it will definitely destroy the secret passage.
Only the special method known to the wife of the city lord can unlock the restriction on the secret passage.
Xuan Sitian entered the room smoothly and moved out the wardrobe.
He checked carefully, and there was no trace of the magic restriction behind the closet being opened, which proved that the secret passage had not been discovered, and the White Tiger Emperor Jade must still be inside the secret passage.
Xuan Sitian couldn't help being overjoyed, and relieved himself of the restriction.
A dark secret passage was exposed, and Xuan Sitian entered the secret passage impatiently.
