Chapter 186 Give Me an Explanation
Hu Zhongyuan was closing his eyes and waiting to die, when suddenly a sword stabbed out from inside the cloud-turning car. When the sword light flashed out, it was not only silent, but also transparent. But he didn't go to save Hu Zhongyuan, but stabbed directly at the place where the ax shadow came from.
He only heard a muffled hum in the air in the distance, and the ax light filled the sky, and it was stopped immediately. Turning to the direction of the cloud-turning cart, he slashed straight away.
The swords and axes crisscrossed in mid-air, but they didn't collide with each other. There was only a soft sound, and they separated.
A slender figure suddenly appeared on the cloud-turning car. And hundreds of feet away, there also appeared a middle-aged man in his forties, holding a big bronze axe, with an ugly face. At the moment it seems to be furious. There was even a little blood on the chest, which was gradually dyeing the skirt of the clothes red.
Ruoshui was on the cloud-turning cart, holding the long sword upside down, looking ahead calmly, with almost no expression on his face. That aura is like her sword, as soft as water.
It was the exact opposite of the man holding the ax in the distance. Although she is naturally charming, but when she is quiet, she has no sense of presence. If it weren't for this moment, standing in the center of everyone's attention, it would almost be ignored.
Luo Yan, however, was uncertain, looking at the weak sailor's long sword, which was almost transparent under the sunlight, showing a little jealousy.
But the murderous intent flickered in his eyes again, just as the hostility was getting stronger. Suddenly, the door of the cloud-turning cart was suddenly opened. Zong Shou yawned and got out of the car with a look of sleepiness.
"What's the matter, why are you so noisy?"
Looking around, Zong Shou rubbed his eyes again, his expression was very stunned, and then he flew into a rage: "What's going on? Tiger Central Plains, didn't I tell you to wait outside the city gate? Why are you fighting against Xuanshan City? Get up? Who made the move first? This is my future Yue family, how can I offend you? You two are so unreasonable! You still don’t apologize to me!"
Luo Yan immediately vomited blood in anger. Just now, this kid was still watching with relish by the car window, but at this time he pretended to just wake up in full view of everyone! How could there be such a shameless person in this world?
It was the time when the anger gushed out and the Gu Yang ax in his hand glowed again. Zong Shou's face turned cold, and he looked over with cold eyes: "You are Luo Yan from Xuanshan City? Although my two servants are a little wrong, they only need to be punished a little. Why do you need such a heavy hand? ? Could it be that your Xuanshan City is ready to tear up the covenant and become an enemy of our Gantian Mountain?"
No matter how suffocated Luo Yan's breath was, he felt that a bad breath was stuck in his chest and he couldn't get out. Xinxin was about to kill this Qiantian Mountain Prince desperately, but there was a shout from a distance.
"stop!"
A man in black armor suddenly broke through the crowd of armored soldiers in front of him. Riding a horse with a triangle on its head, which is nearly twice the size of the Wind Harnessing Horse. He has a handsome face, lips like Danzhu, and his exact age is unknown, but he is only in his thirties. With both hands empty, he just drove up to the cloud-turning car. Neither Ruo Shui nor Hu Zhongyuan seemed to pay attention.
There were many martial artists in Xuanshan City showing surprise, but this person got off his horse and bowed: "Zhu Junhou of Xuanshan City, I have seen your son! In the past, your lord has saved my life. Zhu Junhou has always Grateful."
Zong Shou's expression was also slightly startled, and he thought to himself that there are still people who understand etiquette and kindness in Xuanshan City, which is very rare. After seeing this person standing up, his expression turned cold again: "Since the alliance between Xuanshan City and Qiantian Mountain, Qiantian Mountain has always been willing to go all out if it is ordered. But I don't know why my son today indulges his subordinates. Bumping and hurting people wantonly in my Xuanshan city, cursing my city lord?"
"So you also know that our two families are allies?"
Zong Shou smiled slightly, turned to Hu Zhongyuan who had already got up and asked: "Zhongyuan, we were outside just now, how long have we been waiting?"
Hu Zhongyuan was grinning in pain, but at the moment he heard the words, he immediately lifted his spirits and pointed out four fingers: "Four hours, from morning to night, we waited at the gate of the city for four hours!"
"It turned out that it was only four hours, no wonder I didn't get enough sleep! I'm so sleepy——"
Zong Shou yawned again, and his eyes were sleepy: "This is the way of hospitality in Xuanshan City? How about we go back outside the city gate and wait a little longer?"
Zhu Junhou frowned, and his eyes stabbed at Luo Yan like lightning. Luo Yan was also slightly embarrassed, but then he groaned angrily and turned his head away. "A person who can't protect himself and has no self-knowledge, what would he do if he sees him? Miss must never marry such a useless person like him, and I, Xuanshan City, can't tolerate him!"
When Zong Shou heard the words, he also smiled coldly: "So that's it! I already know the meaning of Xuanyuan City Lord. Since I, Zong Shou, are not welcome here, then I, Zong Shou, don't want to stay longer. Let's go—"
He didn't speak anymore, waved his sleeves, and walked back to the carriage.
As soon as Chuxue rolled her eyes, she immediately steered the carriage, turned around, and drove towards the city gate. Hu Zhongyuan and Zongyuan also did not say a word, they got on the wind-riding horse again and followed behind the chariot.
Seeing this, Zhu Junhou's complexion turned blue and pale. He gave Luo Yan a fierce look, and bowed again: "Please stay, my son! Just now, City Lord Xuanyuan has been ordered to meet his son in person in Tiegang Palace!"
Zong Shou stayed in the carriage, but made no sound. Then Zhu Junhou frowned again, and finally turned into a sigh, with a more respectful expression: "My Xuanshan City will definitely give an explanation to the son of today!"
Luo Yan was even more angry, and was about to speak, but he felt that Zhu Junhou's cold eyes were still looking at him. I couldn't help feeling cold in my heart, and couldn't say a word.
The so-called Iron Gang Palace is not in Xuanshan City, but on Xuanshan Mountain behind the city.
The so-called Xuanshan Mountain is about 2,400 feet high and goes straight into the clouds. Except for the side facing Xuanshan, the other sides are all huge stones comparable to fine steel, standing thousands of feet high. The mountain is majestic and has become the natural city wall of Xuanshan City. As long as tens of thousands of people are stationed, it will be unbreakable.
And even the side facing Xuanshan City is extremely steep. Fortunately, there is a winding mountain road leading to the top of the mountain. The cloud-turning car is almost all-terrain driving, and it is barely passable here.
Chuxue no longer needs to drive, and was replaced by Zong Yuan. At this time, he was beside Zong Shou, blinking his eyes curiously: "Young master, we have such a mess, but there is really nothing wrong. Just now Xue'er was frightened, thinking that uncle would probably die—"
Zong Shou smiled slightly, but did not answer. How could it be possible to really turn around? Everyone thought that Zong Shou asked him to go to Xuanshan City.
However, there are a few people who can clearly see that the power of Danggan Tianshan is shrinking. After retracting from the previous nine provinces to five provinces, this Xuanshan City is actually dispensable to Qiantian Mountain.
Zong Weiran has the heart to conquer the world, so he spread his cloth here, using Xuanshan City as the east barrier. You can be unscrupulous and attack the land of the west.
But now that he is dead, whether Qian Tianshan can keep itself is a problem, and this Xuanshan City has become a burden on the contrary, involving part of its strength.
He was born Zongshou, and he is a person with no ambitions. If it weren't for Xuanyuan Yiren, he wouldn't be bothered to care about the life and death of the people in this city. Go ahead and hug the thighs of those Danquan sects and Shangxiao sects. Let's see if these extraterrestrial sects can keep this city. It's almost the same as Ling Yunzong.
Others only think that the Danquan Sect and the Shangxiao Sect are powerful, and there are more than a dozen of them in the Heavenly Wu Sect. That Xuanshan city lord must be able to know the details.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Chuxue wanted to know more and more. Then he tugged at his sleeve again, his eyes were watery, and his face was begging.
Zong Shou glanced at her, and then curled his lips in disdain: "Even if I say it, can you understand Xue'er? Think about the location of Xuanshan City, and think about how many soldiers and horses we have stationed here. Lan Province. Nearby, what benefits can we get from the Tianshan Mountains—”
Chuxue was immediately furious, this simply underestimated her IQ! Even if it is his own family who said this, he must not bear it!
Resisting the urge to punch Zong Shou on the head, Chuxue sat down with a straight face, ready to fall into deep thought. This time, we must think clearly, so that this guy does not dare to underestimate himself! But after a while, it was in his eyes, the more he thought about it, the more confused he became.
Location? Soldiers? benefit? Ah? Why does it get more and more complicated the more you think about it?
On the contrary, Ruoshui was lying on the soft couch again, thinking for a while.
Zong Shou ignored Chu Xue and looked out the window. I don't know if they are worried about their group causing trouble again. At this moment, on the left and right sides, there are a mass of black armored knights, and dozens of innates are protecting these two. Among them, there are four Wuzong-level powerhouses. Not only vigilant, but also with a bit of resentment, he looked this way from time to time.
Zong Shou didn't care at all, and walked towards the distance not far away as if nothing had happened, and the accompanying Zhu Junhou waved. The latter was slightly taken aback, and after a little hesitation, he still rode his horse to the side of the car window, and after paying a salute, he said with a little bit of defense: "I don't know my son, what can I do to invite you?"
Zong Shou glanced at this person up and down, as if he was affectionate, until Zhu Junhou started to feel hairy, and then smiled lightly: "Why doesn't Shibo live in the city, but on the mountain instead? What is the Tiegang Palace like?" where?"
Zhu Junhou suddenly made up his mind, but hesitated for a moment before replying: "It's okay to tell the prince about this matter! The city lord has actually ignored the affairs of the city in recent years and has been focusing on martial arts. Three years ago, because of the bottleneck of martial arts, he couldn't make any progress. So people built a huge stone palace on the Xuanshan Mountain. It was made of iron and rock, and a few Yang-returning spiritual masters were hired to engrave a spiritual formation. The inner strength is pervasive, and once all the martial arts spiritual masters enter the temple, I can't display any true energy and soul power. I want to suppress my cultivation, start from the lowest level, rethink and prove my martial arts, and make up for the flaws. This is very common among martial artists. If you want to learn from the family, you should also I have heard of it. Thanks to the blessing of this palace, I have made a lot of progress recently!"
