Chapter 1961
"I don't think this is too difficult. It mainly depends on the prestige of City Lord Liu." Ruo Cheng had been listening there for a long time and had thought about this problem in his heart. "As long as something happens, no matter how those who betrayed explain, their actions can make people see the flaws. We just need to let the other party open their bodies and imprint the mark of City Lord Liu, so that we can check it out to the maximum extent."
"For the Soul Alliance, for the real Soul Alliance, those people will not mind."
"Good idea, even if a few may hesitate, but we can pull in as many troops as possible, and then station them at the surrounding defense points to prevent the barriers from being broken outside. Of course, we must also be prepared for a battle inside. At that time, we will force the Alliance Lord to open the defense formation in advance, so that the damage caused by the battle inside can be minimized as much as possible." Another city lord's eyes lit up and said what Ruo Chen meant.
Gu Zheng looked at everyone, talking one by one, and explored the loopholes in the middle bit by bit. Some of them were things he had not thought of, but under the discussion of everyone, he quickly found a suitable solution.
Before, he hesitated whether to tell his reinforcements, that is, the Shura clan. If he could really tear open the space with the five rings and let those Shura people on standby come over, then the outcome of this battle could be said to be determined.
At the same time, Gu Zheng also knew that at that time, Wen Tianhou might not be able to drive away the Shura clan, and Gu Feng could not either. He could only watch in vain step by step as they occupied this world little by little until they became a part of them.
And outside, there would be no more wandering Shura people. They would come here and return here in the future.
"It seems that you have solved it. I brought the other party back."
At this time, the door of the secret room opened again, and Mrs. Xue walked in with Huaying and others.
"What are you doing? It's very annoying to go back and forth. What do you want to find me for?" Compared with Yan Ge's unconditional obedience, Huaying was a little impatient and said carelessly as soon as he came in.
"Are you curious about what we are talking about? As long as you answer a few questions from them, we will tell you." Gu Zheng ignored the other party's complaints, as if he was a bad uncle holding a lollipop to tempt children, and said deliberately.
Although he knew it was a trap, the kid still grabbed the stick. His eyes lit up and he became excited. Huaying nodded and agreed to the exchange.
"Deal, ask whatever you want. I can tell you everything I know. If you want to know what Sister Mengzhen likes to do, what she likes to eat, and what she wears, I know."
"I don't want to know that." Gu Zheng didn't expect the other party to say that. He quickly looked around. Fortunately, Pan Xuan was not here. No one knew what the other party thought of him. "You stand there and accept the interrogation!"
Gu Zheng deliberately emphasized his tone at the end, and then signaled Yan Yue behind Huaying with his eyes. The latter understood what Gu Zheng meant and pushed Huaying to the front.
"The people of the Huahun clan are very interesting." Madam Xue looked at Huaying who had already started asking questions and said to Gu Zheng.
"The other party is not respectful, that is, they live in the world of paintings, at least they live a better life than those demon souls." Standing aside and watching Yan Ge talking about some questions, Gu Zheng also knew that this time the matter was done. No matter what, it would delay the Soul Alliance from being pushed by the other party.
"Yes, I just hope that more people can survive this time."
Mrs. Xue knew the inside story, but she had already surrendered to this side. Besides, the Soul Alliance had no other way to deal with this situation. There was only this way to go, just like at the beginning, only a bloody battle could give themselves a chance to survive.
The only thing they didn't know was that there was a third party waiting to benefit behind this.
Soon, these city lords got the information they wanted from Huaying. After a brief discussion and making some final decisions, they all said goodbye to Gu Zheng and Mrs. Xue.
Time was tight, and they had to make arrangements without stopping to face what was about to happen.
"Let's go."
After everyone else left, Gu Zheng took Huaying and the others to the living room on the other side, and also pulled Pan Xuan outside to go with him.
"Okay, tell us what happened and why you are here."
Sitting aside again, he said directly to them.
Madam Xue and Pan Xuan were also looking at each other curiously. Although Xue Fu listened to the city lord's question just now, the city lords were also very measured and did not satisfy her curiosity.
"It's like this. We were in the palace city and were about to leave."
Huaying explained the matter carefully this time. After she finished speaking, Yan Ge also briefly talked about his mission and told Gu Zheng that although their previous mission was successful, Gu Zheng's opponent ran away.
"You are trapped, and Meng Zhen's body has also produced a slight mutation. Xiaoying seems to have been controlled by the other party. You escaped and were caught by them."
Gu Zheng didn't care about Yan Ge's affairs. After all, Ma Nan was dead. He just didn't expect Huaying to bring three very bad news, but at this time, he had no way to get out of it anyway.
The situation in Meng Zhen's body was easy to say, but he had no way to deal with Huahun. How could he transfer Huahun and those people out of thin air? What made him even more worried was Xiaoying's affairs.
In fact, he had a bad feeling in his heart because he had wasted so much time here, but he knew that if he went up rashly, he would not be able to rescue Xiaoying. The other party was under the close care of Wen Tianhou, and he could only rely on the kitten to have a chance, but the kitten did not respond, and Xiaoying had been controlled by the other party.
Thinking of the lively little guy who asked him questions every day, he felt a faint pain in his heart and clenched his palms tightly.
Outside the body, a trace of invisible black breath came out, just like his mood, so bad.
"Master Gu, don't be angry first, maybe someone from the Huahun clan can help you."
Yan Ge saw the breath surging on Gu Zheng's body. The invisible breath made them both slightly frightened in their hearts, as if a volcano was accumulated, and they were standing on the mountain pass. They couldn't see it from many places, so they said quickly.
Pan Xuan's eyes were also flashing with an inexplicable light. She seemed to see a little difference in Gu Zheng's breath just now, as if she had seen the feeling of the ancestor, which made people worship. At that moment, she almost saw the other party's "past", but it was a pity that she was interrupted by Yan Ge in advance and she never had the chance again.
Just like this, she understood one thing. Although she had a noble birth, excellent talent, and fascinating beauty, she was still not worthy of him, not worthy of the real him. She could only look at Gu Zheng with deep regret, and then suddenly stood up, without saying goodbye, and walked out.
Because of the "pill" she gave to Gu Zheng before, Gu Zheng's power was still increasing at this time, but he had no time to sort it out, which led to some problems in his control of himself, and he hadn't noticed it yet.
"Why do you have to break through at this time!" Gu Zheng just felt that Pan Xuan's breath was strange, and then a huge force emerged from the other party's body, and he unexpectedly began to break through inexplicably.
"I'll go and watch it." Madam Xue understood something at that moment, said to Gu Zheng and left in a hurry.
She couldn't detect the difference in Gu Zheng's behavior just now, but she understood that Pan Xuan had finally walked out of her heart inexplicably. Although the timing was a bit inappropriate, she was still happy for Pan Xuan.
Suppressing the surge in his heart again, Gu Zheng looked at Yan Ge, "Who do you think can help?"
Huaying was also on the side, staring at Yan Ge, wanting to see what he cared about. She also knew how difficult it would be to help them leave there.
"This is also a solution that I thought of after eavesdropping on Huaying. Of course, we must rely on the power of the Outer Soul Clan. I happened to meet a friend on the way and knew how great the reputation of the adults in the Outer Soul was at this time. If you ask, there will definitely be no problem." Yan Ge said confidently.
"Now the other party is gathering the leaders of those races. If my estimation is correct, the other party must have the Ten Thousand Souls Map in their hands to completely control the other party. At that time, these demon souls will be forced to obey the king from the heart, and they will not be like now. There are many people on the other side. At that time, they will definitely leave the palace and go to the plains outside. That's your chance."
"Wait? Ten Thousand Souls Map? What kind of magic weapon is that?" Gu Zheng interrupted when he heard this.
"The Ten Thousand Souls Map is a magic weapon that Wen Tianhou found here. Simply put, it can control everything about the demon souls here and make them loyal to themselves. Of course, this is the specific function, but it is obviously not suitable for him to use. He once wanted to conquer us, but failed. Now the other party has been integrated into the girl Xiaoying, and the power is further strengthened." Huaying said beside him.
"Yeah." Thinking of Xiaoying, Gu Zheng's heart hurt again, and he stopped talking about it, so as not to lose control of his emotions.
He knew Xiaoying's specialness, but he didn't expect that her place of residence was in the Ten Thousand Souls Map, and the broken artifact on it seemed to be integrated into her body, otherwise she would not have been born, but now she is used like a tool by Wen Tianhou.
"I know that there has always been a secret passage in the outer soul that can bypass the opponent's defense and go directly to the palace city. I don't know the details. If it can be used, maybe I can bring those painting souls out. As for whether they can be discovered by the king of heaven or hunted down, it depends on luck."
"I can give them a huge firework inside and copy Wen Tianhou's hometown, at least temporarily attract the opponent's attention."
Huaying said on the side, reminding Gu Zheng of the complex secret passages. If some tricks were really done, the damage caused would be enough to shake the world.
"This method is good, you can try it. Now I have a plan to completely eradicate the opponent. The opponent's doomsday is coming." In order to give them some confidence, Gu Zheng revealed a message to them without outsiders.
Even if Shura failed here, there was a gap provided by Gu Zheng, but it was sealed unintentionally. If the ancestor was not stupid, he would definitely be able to come over.
As for the gap that Gu Zheng came in, it was probably completely blocked by the brush.
He didn't have any worries about the safety of the brush. The other party looked very strong, and with the power of the jade seal, he might not be able to subdue the other party now.
In the final analysis, things will change here in the future, it's just a matter of time. Although he has never seen the ancestor's strength, he will definitely have no problem dealing with Wen Tianhou, who is as strong as a palm.
"That's great!" Yan Yue praised.
"Then let's go find the outer soul for help. Give me your token. I'm afraid it's too late." Huaying immediately stretched out her hand and said to Gu Zheng.
"Does this count as your condition?" Gu Zheng looked at Huaying and said deliberately.
"Of course not. When you went out, we still helped you. How can you not help with this little favor?" Huaying raised her eyebrows and pinched her waist with one hand and pointed at Gu Zheng with the other hand. If it weren't for the surprise on her face, she would feel like a little rogue.
"Okay, I'll give it to you. If you want the other party to help, you must go to the city behind and find Elder Gu. Then she will come forward. In this way, the other party will definitely go all out. And Yan Ge, let me tell you something." Gu Zheng turned his head to the side and faced Yan Ge.
"When you leave here, you must be careful. It's almost the same as you imagined, but you can't come back."
Gu Zheng briefly explained his past. Of course, the focus was on the information from the water monster, and what they said before that they could return the same way, but it was actually just a dream.
"It seems that it is not an illusion."
Yan Yue and Yan Ge looked at each other and said almost at the same time. Without waiting for Gu Zheng to ask, Yan Ge continued to speak.
"My Lord, you also know why we are two rebellious people among the water monsters, but we also worshipped the Heavenly King very early on."
"That's because when we were young, we secretly approached the entrance to play and watched the tribesmen leave here. A dreamlike word was transmitted to our brains. It was not brainwashing for us, but it was like talking to itself, warning us that there was a trap over there." Yan Yue continued on the side.
"There is even a picture of an unknown senior who was imprisoned in a dark cage, betraying and accepting the process of engraving the soul. At that time, we planted the seeds and said that we were unwilling to lose ourselves no matter what, but we really didn't know that we couldn't come back." Yan Ge continued.
"I'm just afraid that you will have some difficulties in the past. Remember to find a hunting group leader in Kaohsiung and mention my name. The other party can help you, but if you ask me where I am, you can say that I am practicing, and don't reveal other information." Gu Zheng said carefully.
Gu Zheng knew that the water monsters would leave here sooner or later, after all, they were not suitable to stay in this world.
"Well, thank you, sir! We will hide well in there. If there is any need in the future, please tell us at any time." Yan Ge said gratefully.
After knowing that there was a problem over there, as long as they took precautions, they would definitely be able to escape the initial roundup.
"Hey, I haven't solved it here yet, are you leaving now?" Huaying listened to their conversation and said with a little sourness in her heart.
"Don't worry, they will escort you back, this time is still enough." Gu Zheng stretched out his head, touched Huaying's head, and said with relief.
"I can do it alone." Huaying jumped back, broke free from Gu Zheng's clutches, and said loudly.
"Okay, got it, you help take them away from here, thank you very much." Gu Zheng said softly with a look of knowing.
If it weren't for the fact that the water monsters left the soul river and their combat power was greatly reduced due to the environmental problems here, he would also hope that they would stay here. It can be said to be a very strong force.
"That's more like it." Huaying smiled again, forgetting the unhappiness just now.
"After you finish this matter, leave!" Gu Zheng said to Yan Ge.
"I will do my best!" Yan Ge said seriously.
Gu Zheng did not keep them, but sent someone to send them out. As for how the other party left, it might be very simple for them. The only surprise was that there would be no other changes on the way.
Theoretically, Gu Zheng could also follow them and leave with the help of Huaying's power, but unfortunately he could not leave.
"I have to take back the five rings first."
Gu Zheng made a joke to himself in his heart, turned back to find his temporary residence, and began to close his eyes, taking advantage of the little time left to suppress the fluctuations of his breath.
Madam Xue was also whispering to Pan Xuan outside, waiting for time to pass.
Just when the water was flowing continuously under the city lord outside, some people also gathered in a dark secret room.
Although everyone was covered in black robes, making it difficult for others to see their body shapes and faces, others naturally knew who was who.
The black-robed people huddled together and remained silent in the dark until one person spoke in a low voice.
"Have you contacted the outside?"
"The other party is about to come over. Are there any other people here? Lord Liu, that woman has been suspicious of us." Another person almost let it slip, but corrected himself in time.
This place is not just them. Even if everyone knows their identities, they must be on guard against others.
"Don't ask her. Those weird guys behind the other party do have some tricks, but it's a pity that they didn't find a good way."
"Tomorrow is the competition. Remember our rhythm. If you can delay it, delay it. Although the other party doesn't care, we will try our best to create opportunities, but everything depends on my instructions."
The black-robed person who spoke first continued to speak.
"Everything was planned long ago. This is also our last gathering. It seems that there are no major accidents. After things go well this time, everyone's credit will be seen. Don't worry."
"This is our honor." The other black-robed people said at the same time.
"When I came here, I saw that Lord Niu quietly leaving his residence. Isn't there something wrong?" Another black-robed man who was standing below suddenly spoke up.
"I know from someone who has a good relationship with me that someone seems to have set his sights on the prize. I'm afraid there are some private dealings. Don't worry about it. But you, who have such a good relationship with the other party, haven't made any substantial progress."
"The other party is very suspicious, especially the strange female guard, who is even more unpredictable. It may take some time to find out whether the other party has given birth."
"Time? No need. After this incident, the other party will have no choice but to agree. Once the chaos begins, you will be responsible for dealing with her and don't let her die. If it doesn't work, send your men to capture her child. You must know how the other party did it."
In his tone, he seemed to have seen their end.
"Yes!"
"Does everyone have anything else to do? If not, we will disband."
There was silence in the air for a while, and soon they left here silently.
