Chapter 409 Farce

At this time, on a mountain near Wutan City, a group of men were kneeling on the ground, trembling. They were the mercenaries who were chased away by Xiao Yu and looked like bandits.

In front of these mercenaries stood a one-armed man. If Xiao Yu and others were here, they would recognize this man at a glance.

In Chuyun Empire, Wu Ya, the Wu Tianfu who escaped after Yun Yun cut off one arm.

"Bastards, didn't I ask you to go and cause trouble for the Xiao family? Why are you rolling back like dogs?"

Wu Ya glanced at these mercenaries with a gloomy face, and the leading Dou Ling knocked his head heavily on the ground.

"Sir! This is none of our business! I didn't expect a little girl who is just a Dou Shi to be so powerful!"

"Huh?" Hearing this, Wu Ya was immediately unhappy, "You mean, you, a Dou Ling, were beaten by a great Dou Shi and came back in disgrace?"

"That's it."

The Dou Ling mercenary hesitated, feeling extremely ashamed, but he could only admit it with his head down, because that was the fact.

They were originally a group of mountain bandits far away from Wu Tan City. Yesterday, Wu Ya suddenly ran to their camp and asked or questioned whether the Xiao family would reunite here every year on this day. After getting a positive answer, he asked a series of questions, such as what is the strength of the highest-level person in the Xiao family, and so on. This Dou Ling also told everything he knew.

The reason was also very simple, because Wu Ya was a Dou Huang, if he didn't obey, he and his younger brother would die on the spot.

After asking about the matter, Wu Ya took them to Wu Tan City and ordered them to cause trouble for the Xiao family.

He was naturally unwilling to do so. They set up camp far away from Wutan City to avoid trouble. Even if Xiao Zhan was only a great Doushi, his appeal was not comparable to that of a bandit leader. He only needed to go to Douling. If he found a few more great Doushi, he would be killed. He had no need and no courage to confront Xiao Zhan head-on.

But no matter how unwilling he was, he had no choice. If he agreed to Wuya, he might die, but if he didn't agree to Wuya, he would definitely die. He was just a Douling. What qualifications did he have to bargain with a Douhuang?

After entering Wutan City, he went to Xiao Yu and the Xiao family juniors just to be safe. Anyway, Wuya only said that he wanted to cause trouble for the Xiao family, and he didn't specify who to find. In his opinion, what was there to be afraid of a bunch of little girls?

And the result was obvious. He, a Douling and a group of subordinates, were beaten by Xiao Yu, a great Doushi, and couldn't even return their hands.

Immediately, Wuya's cold words reached his ears, making his bones cold instantly.

"A Douling with a group of people can't even beat a great Doushi, so you are useless."

When the voice fell, the Douling mercenary and his men suddenly felt itchy all over their bodies, and they clearly felt that their hearts were failing rapidly and they were having difficulty breathing. They clutched their throats tightly, and their faces were bulging with veins.

It's poison!

Everyone reacted immediately, looking at Wu Ya in front of them with eyes wide open, and wanted to reach out to ask for an explanation when they were dying, but it was too late.

A few seconds later, everyone fell to the ground, their expressions were full of unwillingness, including the Douling.

"Hmph! A bunch of trash!"

Wu Ya glanced at their bodies coldly, without any fluctuations in his heart.

Anyway, this group of people couldn't help him, and what he wanted to know was already clear, and he alone was enough to handle the rest.

Wu Ya came to the edge of the cliff, looking at the bustling Xiao family compound in Wutan City from a distance, and a cold arc crossed the corner of his mouth.

The previous defeat in the Tagor Desert not only failed to get rid of the Snake People, but also led to a reconciliation between the Snake People and the Gama Empire. It was not until later that we learned that Queen Medusa was not dead at all!

The Mulan Empire was fine, but this was definitely extremely bad news for the Chuyun Empire and the Luoyan Empire.

Wu Ya did not forget that in the Tagor Desert, when Queen Medusa's clone was stabbed in the back by Yan Luotian, she said in person, "When this king comes out of retreat, there will be no peace for Chuyun Luoyan."

With Medusa's reputation, saying such words is definitely not just a scare. The reason why she has not taken action against Chuyun Luoyan now can only be because of some unavoidable reasons.

The more this happened, the more Wu Ya felt uneasy. In addition, he received news some time ago that the Yunlan Sect, which was supposed to be disbanded, was safe and sound, and had a very peaceful relationship with the Jiama royal family. Yunshan, who had been in seclusion, had also come out of seclusion, and his strength had reached the Dou Zong realm. In addition, there was a successfully evolved Queen Medusa. The threat was so great that it was impossible to pretend not to know.

With Queen Medusa's words first, and the growing power of the Jiama Empire, Chuyun Luoyan was really uneasy, and finally decided to take the initiative.

But a head-on confrontation was not the best strategy, and it would cost a lot regardless of winning or losing.

Therefore, they could only find the easiest and most critical person to start with.

So, the image of a person immediately appeared in Chuyun and Luoyan's minds.

Xiao Family, Xiao Ji.

It was this woman who almost single-handedly broke the extremely strong barrier between the Jiama royal family and the snake people, and successfully made the snake people and the Jiama Empire join forces, including migrating the snake people from the Tagor Desert. All of this was the result of Xiao Yu's promotion.

This is a crisis for Luoyan Chuyun, but it is also an opportunity!

Even if the Snake People and the Gama Empire join forces now, the relationship is certainly not that stable. Therefore, it is unlikely that the Gama Empire and the Snake People will have direct contact. There must be a middleman to mediate.

Xiao Jing is this middleman. Jia Xingtian is well aware of this. He knows that Xiao Jing is absolutely indispensable to the affairs of the Snake People. That is why he immediately listed Xiao Jing as the Imperial Master after the Yunlan Sect incident, so that she can enter the power circle of the Gama Royal Family in name and have more say in dealing with the affairs of the Snake People.

It can be said that Jia Xingtian has almost completely handed over the affairs of the Snake People to Xiao Jing, because compared with the royal family, the Snake People are more willing to negotiate with Xiao Jing.

Because of this, as long as Xiao Jing dies, the Gama Royal Family and the Snake People will have no middleman, and the contradictions between the two forces that cannot listen to each other will increase, and eventually the Snake People and the Gama Empire will once again stand on opposite sides.

This time, it is not as easy to deal with as before. Previously, the snake people lived in the Tagor Desert on the border of the Gama Empire. Although it would cost a price to suppress them, it was not difficult, and at least a false peace could be maintained.

But now, the snake people are living in Chisha City in the Gama Empire. Although it is not the center, it is also quite threatening. In this case, once the relationship between the Gama royal family and the snake people breaks down, the snake people must be completely wiped out, otherwise they will only cause continuous invasions to the surrounding cities.

In this case, the casualties must be quite heavy.

"Hehehe Jia Xingtian, you have been stable for most of your life, but you still can't stabilize it."

Wu Ya smiled sinisterly, his eyes full of coldness.

Jia Xingtian must have considered the possibility of the snake people rebelling again, but after experiencing the Tagor Desert, he realized that only seeking stability cannot solve the fundamental problem. If you want to completely solve the problem of the snake people, you must take risks.

What's more, Xiao Ji's existence makes Jia Xingtian quite confident. As long as Xiao Ji is still there, the snake people will not be in chaos.

This idea is indeed fine, but in the eyes of Chu Yun and Luo Yan, it has another meaning. As long as Xiao Ji dies, the snake people are likely to rebel!

But Xiao Ji has always stayed in the Holy City of Gama on weekdays, and it is not easy to start.

But recently, Chu Yun and Luo Yan learned from many news that the Xiao family will reunite at the beginning of each year at the Xiao family, and Xiao Ji is no exception.

And this is the best time for Xiao Ji to leave the Holy City of Gama and get out of the protection of Jia Xingtian!

In order to avoid being discovered by Jia Xingtian, Wu Ya sneaked into the Gama Empire alone and came to Wu Tan City. He roughly understood the situation of Wu Tan City through various means.

As for why it was Wu Ya, it was because he wanted to prove to Yan Luotian that he still had value. From the last incident in the Tagor Desert, it can be seen that Yan Luotian was very dissatisfied with Wu Ya. Even if Chuyun and Luoyan joined forces again, Yan Luotian would most likely not look for him again. Wu Ya was not the only one who could speak in the Chuyun Empire.

This won’t work! Wu Ya finally got in touch with Yan Luotian, which would give him more say in the Chuyun Empire. How could he be willing to give in?

Whether it was forced by the situation or self-interest, the final result was that Wu Ya volunteered to take on the task of assassinating Xiao Yu, and he was quite confident in his heart.

It was just a small family in a small city, and the patriarch was just a big fighting master. How difficult was it to deal with it?

But it was daytime now, so it was not appropriate to take action. It would be bad if someone saw it. Even if Jia Xingtian could guess it, he couldn’t let them have evidence to prove that it was Wu Ya who killed the Xiao family. Otherwise, when the snake people rebelled later, Jia Xingtian could use this as an excuse to turn the spearhead against them.

Therefore, it is necessary to choose the night time when people are most relaxed to kill people!

"Haha, enjoy it, Xiao Jing." Wu Ya's eyes were full of viciousness, and he laughed grimly, "This is the last good year for you and your family~"

After the voice fell, Wu Ya's figure suddenly disappeared, leaving only corpses on the mountain.

Time passed, it was already night. According to the usual practice, the younger generations of the Xiao family rehearsed one program after another and performed on the stage. Xiao Ning and Xiao Mei were eliminated as usual, hiding in the corner and drawing circles.

After the performance began, outsiders such as Lu Man also watched with relish. On weekdays, apart from practicing, there was basically no entertainment. This kind of performance was quite novel to them.

Even Hai Bodong was pulled onto the stage by the children of the Xiao family and reluctantly performed a children's drama.

As for the true identity of Hai Bodong, not everyone in the Xiao family knew it. Those who didn't know it were fine. They just smiled with relief at the performance of these cute children.

But everyone who knew Hai Bodong's identity was sweating all over. The Ice Emperor and a group of children performing a children's play were really hilarious. Those who knew found it funnier than those who didn't. But those who knew didn't dare to laugh. Looking at Hai Bodong's extremely resentful expression, they were afraid that he would bring a snowstorm to the entire Xiao family in the next second.

Ya Fei, who was invited, also covered her mouth lightly and looked at Hai Bodong on the stage. Her good upbringing made it easy for her to calm down, although she was shocked.

That arrogant Hai Bodong was actually forced by a group of children to perform a children's play on the stage. If Grandpa knew about it, his jaw would probably drop out of shock. Is it true that he has been a child for too long, causing his mental age to be childish?

"Sister Ya Fei."

At this moment, while everyone's attention was on the stage, Xiao Yan came over and bowed to her embarrassedly.

"I'm really sorry. I let Sister Yafei see the embarrassing part yesterday."

Yafei looked at Xiao Yan who was looking down, and raised the corner of her mouth slightly, smiling charmingly.

"Brother Xiao Yan, don't worry so much. No one can be bright and beautiful all the time. There will always be ugly parts. This is not a shameful thing." Yafei gently stroked her white wrist and looked at Hai Bodong on the stage, "Look at Master Hai Bodong now, isn't it the same situation?"

"Uh, speaking of this, I still can't believe that Senior Hai Bodong would actually go on stage to perform."

Xiao Yan suddenly paused, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

To be honest, when those children dragged Hai Bodong, who looked unwilling, to them and said that they wanted to go on stage to perform, Xiao Yan was completely dumbfounded. He was originally preparing to persuade the children to give up on behalf of Hai Bodong, but Hai Bodong actually said "Let them do it".

Let them do it? That means go on stage with these children to perform a drama?

Xiao Yan still felt that it was unrealistic. After all, Hai Bodong only looked young, but he was actually a Dou Huang master who had been famous for many years. How could he put down his face and go on stage to perform a children's play with the children?

Ya Fei looked at Xiao Yan, then looked at Hai Bodong on the stage, and smiled slightly.

"Xiao Yan, the happiest time in a person's life is the most ignorant time, because the more you know, the more troubles you will have." Ya Fei hugged her arms and whispered, "As long as a person is alive, it is impossible for him to be ignorant all the time. The only person who can truly be ignorant is a young and ignorant child."

"Lord Hai Bodong talked to me before. The stronger he becomes, the more he feels that he is not strong enough. Although he is getting stronger day by day, he feels more and more weak."

"He can perform on the stage with these ignorant children in this form and feel their simple happiness. It must be a very good experience for Lord Hai Bodong."

After listening to Ya Fei's words, Xiao Yan looked at Hai Bodong on the stage. Although the expression on his face was still reluctant, his eyes were emitting a happy glow.

As Ya Fei said, he has not experienced this kind of pure happiness for many years. Even if it is extremely embarrassing, it is only him who feels embarrassed.

At this moment, Xiao Yan's heart was suddenly touched.

On the other side, Xiao Yixian saw Xiao Yan standing with Yafei. She frowned unconsciously because she had been wary of Yafei since Jiama Holy City. When she was about to get up and go over, her figure suddenly shuddered.

Immediately, Xiao Yixian stretched out her jade hand and gently squeezed it. Strands of purple mist that ordinary people could not see gathered from all directions of the Xiao family compound to her palm, gathering into a dark purple gas mass.

Obviously, this is poison.

Xiao Yixian's mind stagnated and she was stunned for a long time.

Why is there poison here?

At this time, the performance of the children on the stage ended, and Hai Bodong bowed his head with the other children to take a bow.

Suddenly, a rampant voice sounded from the air.

"Hahahahaha! Xiao Ji! Tonight is the time for you and the Xiao family to be exterminated!"

In full view of the crowd, Wu Ya's figure appeared above the stage, and he did not look down. With a wave of his hand, a ball of dark purple strong fighting spirit blasted towards the stage.

"Let these children go downstairs and wait for you first!!!"

Boom!!!
