Chapter 1998

"Shua!"

Gu Zheng looked at Zhu Hun, who had lost control of his body after being knocked away by him. He immediately raised the Yunhuang Sword in his hand and carefully cut him down from below. The latter could only watch helplessly but had no way to deal with him. He just waited for death.

A trace of fear finally appeared in Zhu Hun's eyes, but he really had no way to deal with Gu Zheng. After desperately leaving several wounds on the other party, he was still not careful enough to be found by the other party and fell into such a situation.

Just when he was about to sit here and wait for death, he suddenly felt dizzy. When he reacted, he found that he had come to the back. Standing next to him was Wen Tianhou. He immediately said with shame.

"Lord Tianwang."

Wen Tianhou raised his arm to stop the other party from saying the next thing. He just looked at the front quietly, as if he was admiring the sunset and the last glory. After more than ten breaths, Wen Tianhou spoke.

"Your opponent is not him. Go and kill the Shura clan. I will naturally have someone to deal with him."

Zhu Hun nodded immediately and flew over there.

Following behind him were the guards behind Wen Tianhou. Wen Tianhou, who had no worries, was ready to end this farce.

Even with Bai Jiajia's joining, it only slightly eased the pressure here, but the strength of the two people at least made them not die as before if they were not careful. However, seeing the arrival of the other party's guards, some people were desperate and even began to look around, as if looking for an opportunity to escape from here.

Most of them were subordinates of the city lords. City Lord Liu and Elder Jin were still unshakable and were ready to fight to the death. No matter how strong the opponent was, they would not let the opponent slaughter them.

"You actually have the courage to stand in front of me. I admire this, but it's a pity." Wen Tianhou looked at Gu Zheng who was following from a distance and shook his head.

Before this, Gu Zheng's eyes had been on Xiaoying next to him. The other party's lifeless eyes were like a puppet without emotions. The familiar figure was an empty shell, which made him feel heartbroken. Hearing Wen Tianhou's words, he turned his head to look at the other party. The anger in his eyes seemed to burst out, and the veins in his arms were bulging. He wanted to kill Wen Tianhou on the spot.

"Don't feel sorry, today is your end." Gu Zheng suppressed his anger and said to Wen Tianhou word by word.

"You? Although I want to kill you immediately, I would rather do something before that, so that I can appreciate the friendship between the master and the servant. Is it as deep as you show?" Wen Tianhou smiled slightly, not minding the threat from Gu Zheng, but said.

"Xiaoying, kill the enemy in front of you."

Wen Tianhou's figure retreated slightly to the back, and said to Xiaoying next to him, looking like he was watching a show.

Xiaoying lowered her head slightly and took a step forward. With a clenched hand, a green lantern slowly emerged from her hand, and the green fire of the netherworld began to burn again.

"If you really care about her, you can just not resist and let her kill you." Wen Tianhou looked at Gu Zheng and added carefully.

Without waiting for him to speak, he raised the lantern in his hand, and the green flame inside suddenly rose. Then, around the lantern, green flames rushed out. A strong wind came out from nowhere and turned into a sky-high flame attacking Gu Zheng. The waves of flames were surging and submerged his figure.

"I'm sorry!"

A figure covered in green flames walked out of the waves of fire. Layers of golden light flashed on the surface. Every time a layer appeared, the green flame on the surface was reduced by a layer out of thin air. Soon the whole body returned to normal. The green flame next to him wanted to press over, but found that an invisible force was outside him and could not get close at all. It could only burn outside.

"Clang"

Gu Zheng shook the weapon in his hand, breaking the green flame in front of him, and several round golden lights rushed towards Xiaoying rapidly. Each attack was a fatal blow, obviously treating the opponent as a real enemy.

"Tsk tsk, it's really ruthless." Wen Tianhou sighed on the side, shaking his head while speaking, with a look of regret, and he didn't even care about the loss of his own men below.

After all, the people below have turned from offense to defense at this time, which is enough to last for a long time, and he is far less interested in the good show in front of him.

Facing Gu Zheng's murderous intent, Xiaoying was not in a hurry. She stepped in the air and dodged his attack like a gust of wind. At the same time, she held the lantern tightly behind her with both hands and swung it at Gu Zheng. A series of green wind blades suddenly appeared in the air. Each blade was as thin as a cicada's wing, emitting a sharp cold light, dancing in the air without any rules, and flying towards Gu Zheng in an overwhelming manner.

"Ding Ding Dang Dang"

Gu Zheng stared at the front, the weapon in his hand left a series of phantoms in front of him, and under the flashing of golden and green light, the wind blades were destroyed in the air.

"Mr. Gu, can you really bear to hurt me?" Xiaoying in the distance suddenly changed her face, and looked at Gu Zheng with a weak and tearful look.

"What is this?"

Gu Zheng looked at the other party's sad and tearful eyes, and it seemed that the other party had returned to normal, and as usual, he was careful to him.

"Hiss"

Just like this distraction, more than a dozen wind blades suddenly broke through his defense, leaving more than a dozen blood marks on his body, and even a very deep mark on his cheek, bloody.

Gu Zheng quickly stabilized his mind and continued to block those wind blades. He kept telling himself in his heart that Xiaoying had been controlled by the other party. She was no longer herself. Everything she had was wiped out, and it was even more impossible to recover now.

Soon he broke through the blockade of the wind blade and came to Xiaoying. Contrary to his expectations, Xiaoying did not launch any attack at this time. Instead, she looked at him pitifully, no longer stiff as before. She put her weapon behind her back and did not resist, which made it impossible for him to drop the weapon in his hand.

"Young Master, save me! Kill me!"

A trace of struggling eyes flashed in Xiaoying's mouth, and she begged cautiously.

Gu Zheng looked at the trembling of the other party's body, as if he was controlling his body strongly and no longer attacking him, which made his heart soften again. He reached out and touched the other party's shoulder, wanting to comfort the other party on the one hand and to tie him up on the other hand.

"Don't worry, I will definitely let him"

Before Gu Zheng finished speaking, he felt a threat rising suddenly in his heart. At the same time, the pitiful look on Xiaoying's face became a little ferocious. A strong wind came from the side, and then his waist suddenly hurt. The whole person flew away, drew an arc in the air, and kept rolling on the ground for a long distance before stopping.

"Ahem"

Gu Zheng propped himself up and stood up quickly, spitting out mouthfuls of blood, and then he felt better.

"How is it? How does this sudden surprise betrayal feel?" Wen Tianhou came to Gu Zheng, looked at him with a smile and sneered, all of this was controlled by him.

And Xiaoying next to him returned to her dull look again, holding a weapon and standing next to Wen Tianhou without saying a word.

Gu Zheng glared at Wen Tianhou, and at the same time quickly adjusted the discomfort in his body.

"Xiaoying, give the other side a few more." Wen Tianhou looked at Gu Zheng and remained silent again, and spoke directly.

"Young Master, save me, I'm in so much pain, kill me." Xiaoying's face changed, and she begged Gu Zheng again, her eyes became extremely resentful, and she didn't look controlled at all.

"You want you to die, kill you!"

Xiaoying's face changed again, looking at Gu Zheng and gnashing her teeth, as if Gu Zheng had killed his whole family, and she hated him very much.

Gu Zheng felt depressed, and another mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, and his face became even paler.

"What tricks are you playing? This injury won't kill you. Don't worry, I won't be so careful with you. I want you to see with your own eyes that all of them die in pain." Wen Tianhou laughed and walked towards Gu Zheng. It seemed that he was going to change another way to let Gu Zheng experience a different feeling.

Only this kind of torture can make Wen Tianhou feel comfortable in his heart, so that he could destroy his actions again and again before. Simply killing him would be a bargain for the other party.

Gu Zheng's eyes were just looking at Xiaoying, as if he had given up resistance, and his body did not make any defenses, even his body was as calm as water.

Wen Tianhou approached him step by step, wanting to see the other party's fearful expression. Seeing the other party like this, he felt a little disappointed, and immediately did not hesitate, stretched out his hand to grab the other party.

In his opinion, no matter how much the other party struggled, it was useless. The strength of the two was not at the same level at all. Even if he was seriously injured, it would be easy to deal with him.

At the moment when he stretched out his hand, Gu Zheng's body moved suddenly, and a bright golden light lit up in his hand, submerging the whole person in it, making it difficult to see the situation inside.

"A trifle."

Wen Tianhou's movements did not change at all, and he continued to grab the other party, but just as half of his finger was inserted into the golden light, his face suddenly changed, and his figure disappeared in an instant. A black shadow flew out from it, and chased him directly at a speed no less than his.

"Wen Tianhou, I want to see how you die this time!"

After only three breaths, a huge black tower suddenly appeared in the air at a control not far away. At its height, Wen Tianhou's figure had been frozen in the air, surrounded by wisps of black mist. A strong suction force came from above. His figure struggled constantly, but still slowly floated up.

Gu Zheng looked at the sky, carefully thinking that he had set a trap for him, but in the end the other party was fooled. Of course, if he had not been injured, he would not have been so careful to enter the other party.

This change shocked everyone. No matter in the sky or on the ground, they stopped fighting and looked at the sky one after another. Everyone's face showed an expression of disbelief.

Who is Wen Tianhou? Even if he is only in the early stage of the Immortal Soul, he is also in the early stage of the Quasi-Sage. However, it is very easy for one person to kill everyone here hundreds of times. But now he is tied up, and it seems that he can't break free.

Elder Jin, who is about to collapse, quickly retreated and gathered together, striving for this slight opportunity.

"Go in."

Pan Xuan, who was shocked, looked at the sky and said the voice of countless people here.

"Hurry up and save the king!"

Zhu Hun, who was on the side, saw this scene and shouted angrily, and flew over first. Including his guards and the prime minister, they all rushed towards this side, but when they approached a certain range, an invisible force completely blocked them, making them unable to approach.

They wanted to attack the black tower, but found that the attack they launched turned inexplicably and came to Wen Tianhou, which made them stop acting rashly.

On the other hand, Wen Tianhou, except for being a little panicked at the beginning, now closed his eyes, as if sensing something, and suddenly opened his eyes when his body was getting closer and closer to it.

"Haha, it turns out to be just a broken item. You want my life? You're dreaming." Wen Tianhou laughed out loud.

Originally he thought this was Gu Zheng's trump card for Gu Zheng. Even if it was a complete imitation, he couldn't bear it in his current condition. But he knew how powerful it was. If the condition was similar, Gu Zheng wouldn't be able to bear it with Gu Zheng's current strength. Nothing to do with him.

But he didn't know that Gu Zheng had this thing in his hand, otherwise he would have killed the opponent with just one palm. As a result, he was caught by the opponent and couldn't avoid it, and ended up in the current situation.

There are no ifs in all this, but it has not reached the worst case scenario. It is just a broken product, and with the use of Gu Zheng, he has information coming out of it.

"Listen all of you, shoot them without mercy. I hope that when I come out, no enemies will exist anymore." Wen Tianhou glanced around and shouted at them.

Not only that, he also gave Xiaoying the final order, and at the same time left part of his mind inside her body, so that when he came out, he would know everything that happened outside.

After he finished speaking, his figure was completely sucked into the tower, and the entire giant tower fell directly towards the ground, making a huge hole and motionless.

At this time, there was no invisible force. Several anxious demon souls rushed in directly, trying to destroy the black tower from the outside. However, as soon as they got closer, a mysterious force came from the black tower. He was sucked in without any resistance, causing others to slow down immediately.

"Don't come close, even the King of Heaven can't resist. Do you still want to resist?" Seeing this, Cheng Ji on the side immediately shouted to everyone to prevent them from dying for no reason.

"It's better to obey the King of Heaven's command and kill the enemy." Jin Yu also shouted from the side.

"Besides, the King of Heaven has said to wait for him to come out and trust the King of Heaven." Zhu Hun also said at the side.

Unexpectedly, the King's bodyguard had already turned around and headed towards the enemy.

Then everyone turned around and prepared to listen to the King of Heaven and kill all the enemies to meet the King of Heaven.

While the demon soul was acting, Xiaoying had already launched another attack on Gu Zheng. However, he had to control the black tower in the early stage and turned a deaf ear to her attacks. He waited carefully until he stabilized before he could free his hands to fight her.

"Okay, we are wandering on the line of life and death again. As long as we hold on for a while and the weather is warm, the other party will definitely escape." Ruochen took a deep breath and said to City Lord Liu next to him.

"But the key is whether we can wait until then. There are too many people on the other side. Why haven't the reinforcements come yet as Gu Zheng said? They will definitely come." Elder Jin next to him said at the side.

"Perhaps I was delayed on the road. Now I have no choice but to persevere." Bai Jiajia also knew what was going on here. At the same time, a layer of white light bloomed in his hand and shot out towards the surroundings.

Each one of them has an extra layer of white shield. Although the effect is not as strong as Pan Xuan's black palace blessing, it still has an extra layer of protection. It can really save lives at critical moments. The defense that Pan Xuan had attached before was almost useless. Everyone has used it, otherwise there would have been casualties long ago. Now all the parts are still on the body, with only minor injuries. I am very lucky.

"They're coming!"

City Lord Xing warned loudly, clenching the weapons in his hands and preparing for another battle.

At this time, Wen Tianhou's personal guards, red ghost generals, black ghost generals, and a few silver ghost generals were quickly approaching them. Although there were only less than twenty in number, the pressure on them was greater than those of the demon spirits. , even more breathless.

"Looks like we're not too late, come on everyone!"

At this moment, dozens of figures in the distance were flying towards them in a hurry. When the leader of the second elder saw the situation in front of him, he realized that things were not as bad as he thought. He shouted to this side, which immediately attracted everyone's attention. .

"The Painted Soul Clan is really here." Ruochen looked into the distance and was really surprised. Judging from the size of the opponent, he was afraid that this time they would move in full force.

"Of course, he won't lie at all. Wen Tianhou happened to be away this time. The other party came at the right time. It's our turn to fight back." Pan Xuan said with a smile.

"It's not just a counterattack." Bai Jiajia said with relief when she saw Xu Jia in the crowd and winked at her.

At this time, only the vanguard of the Huahun clan came over, and the team of their clan members were probably still behind, but it was enough. There were more than 20 Huahun elders alone, not to mention more than a dozen Da Luo from the Mirror Demon clan. The masters, and a few mengzi generation, can be said to have all their power.

The appearance of the painting soul clan surprised the demon souls even more. Even the ghost general clan was forced to stop and began to move towards them. If the demon souls were allowed to deal with them, they would not be their match at all.

The grudge between the two clans is not just here, it started in the Small Thousand Worlds, and it has not eased even now, because the members of both clans are very strong and highly talented, so naturally they will not obey the other.

Half of the demon souls also turned around and rushed towards the painting soul clan.

They were just brainwashed to be followers of the King of Heaven. They naturally knew that the painting soul had been imprisoned in the palace before, and now that it appeared here, they naturally knew what it meant.

"Before the other party comes out, completely eliminate the other party." Pan Xuan looked ahead, and then laughed.

"This time I want to show the other party how powerful our Shura clan is." Huo Yao shook his head aside. The previous frustration filled his heart with infinite anger.

Although their number is barely half of the enemy's, their real high-level combat power is much greater than the enemy's. In other words, if nothing unexpected happens, this group of demon souls will taste the bitterness they had suffered before.

"Kill!"

A more intense battle began in the sky, and the battle below started again almost at the same time.

This time, the Soul Alliance and the Shura Clan, with high morale, started to encircle and suppress the enemy together with the people of Lone Peak.

For the demon souls, everything seemed to be completely different from the beginning, which was something they had never expected at first.
