"Be bold!"
The middle-aged man standing next to him shouted loudly and struck out with a palm, knocking Zhu Lian away and slamming into the wall.
"command!"
"You bastard, you idiot, how dare you treat our command like this? You are looking for death."
"If you let me out if you dare, I will tear your heads off and use them as footballs."
…
The rest of the Anwu Guards were all excited when they saw it, and they wanted to tear Xue Ruhuo and the middle-aged man around him into pieces.
"court death."
The middle-aged man's eyes were filled with murderous intent. Just as he was about to take action, Xue Ruhuo quickly stopped him.
"Mr. Lu, please be merciful. I won't be able to explain to my father if I kill them."
"Zhu Lian, you are just a broken body now. Even if you are my master, you may not be a match."
"What's more, you all have toxins in your body."
"Even if you are let out, without an antidote, you will all turn into pus within three days."
Xue Ruhuo sneered.
Zhu Lian remained motionless. He was already weak and could not withstand the blow just now.
But he understood that he could not die yet.
If he were to die, the country would really fall into the hands of others. When I went down there the next day, how could I have the face to meet the commander of Anwuwei and His Majesty the founding of the country?
"A bunch of stubborn old guys." Xue Ruhuo lost interest, waved his hand and said: "It's almost time for bloodletting again, don't forget it."
The Anwu Guard is the nightmare of the entire court, and even the powerful Xue family does not dare to be careless.
While giving them poison, they will also be bled regularly to ensure that they have no ability to resist.
If it were an ordinary person, he would have died long ago from this kind of torture.
But the Dark Armed Guards are different from ordinary people. They have undergone brutal training since childhood, and only those who survive are qualified to become Dark Armed Guards.
They are the absolute elite. No matter how cruel and unscrupulous the emperor was in the past, it was precisely because of the existence of the dark warriors.
There has never been chaos in this country.
If it weren't for the late emperor's stupidity, Anwuwei would never have fallen into the trap, and the Xue family wouldn't have been able to catch them all in one go.
Just when Xue Ruhuo was about to leave, a guard stumbled in with blood all over his body and shouted: "Master, it's not good. An assassin is coming in. We can't hold it anymore."
"What did you say, assassin?" Xue Ruhuo's eyes widened. This is the Xue family. Who has the ability to break in today?
Could it be Mu Jiushan?
"Master, run through the secret passage and find support! These assassins are all highly skilled in martial arts and brutal in their methods. We are definitely not able to fight against them."
After the guard finished speaking, he fainted. He had been stabbed several times, and his ability to come back alive to report the news was already the limit.
"Mr. Lu, what should we do?" Xue Ruhuo asked nervously.
Lu Long thought for a moment and said, "Master, you go first! I'll stay to block them."
After speaking, he looked at the dozen or so guards around him: "You protect the young master. If the young master loses a hair, they will all die."
"Yes! Master, let's go quickly!"
"Okay. Mr. Lu, be careful." Xue Ruhuo nodded and left directly.
"Haha, the dignified Xue family will have someone knock on their door one day. It seems that you are not as exaggerated as you said." Zhu Lian laughed hoarsely.
Lu Long glanced at him and said: "The secret guards helped the tyrants and killed countless loyal people. How do you know they are not coming for you?"
Zhu Lian remained silent and did not speak again.
The entire secret prison fell into silence for a moment, and only the faint shouts of killing made people shudder.
After a while.
With a bang, four or five Xue family guards flew out, fell to the ground, spurted blood, and fainted.
A man in black, covered in blood and holding a sharp knife, rushed in and surrounded Lu Long.
"Are they all top-notch experts?"
If others don't know, Lu Long can't tell.
When he realized the strength of these men in black, he was immediately shocked. Although he is talented, he is not necessarily a match against so many first-rate masters.
Moreover, when did the Imperial City have so many first-rate masters? This thing is not a roadside cabbage.
Even in the military.
That's at least the general level.
Fortunately, the group of men in black just surrounded him and didn't make any move.
Lu Long thought for a while and clasped his fists and said: "Dear heroes, I am the Xue family who worships Lu Long, and I belong to the Lanyue Sect in Jianghu."
"You probably didn't come here for the Xue family, otherwise you wouldn't have attacked this secret prison."
"The people detained around here are the core members of the Qianwu Kingdom's secret guard. If you come to seek revenge on them, I will not stop you."
"If you want to kill or behead me, please feel free to do so!"
The man in black remained motionless, completely ignoring him.
"So all the Anwuwei people are here?"
A deep voice sounded.
Then the crowd of men in black separated, and a dozen more men in black walked in. The one who spoke was a tall and thin man, with eyes staring at Lu Long like poisonous snakes.
Lu Long's scalp was numb at the sight, and he forced out a smile and said: "Except for those who have died over the years, all the survivors are here."
"This good man has something to say. I am Lu Long, the elder of the Lanyue Sect. Can I make a friend?"
"Ha, teach me a friend, are you worthy?" The tall, thin man in black sneered, kicked Lu Long away, and directly smashed the table with torture instruments behind him to pieces.
"Pfft~" Lu Long spit out a mouthful of blood and said with fear on his face: "Grandmaster, how is this possible?"
"Who are you?"
"Go to the underworld and ask the King of Hell!" The tall and thin man said nothing nonsense and slapped Lu Long on the head with his palm in the air.
Lu Long's head instantly exploded like a watermelon.
"Get these people out!"
The tall and thin man waved his hand, and all the men in black moved and used weapons to cut off the iron chains on the cell door.
"Who are you? Why did you save us?"
Facing this mysterious force, even if they killed Lu Long, the people of Anwuwei would not dare to be careless.
So there was no rush to get out of the cell.
After a stalemate for a while, finally, a cell door opened, and a figure with disheveled hair and shambling steps came out and said to the tall and thin man: "I am Zhu Lian, the commander of the Anwu Guard. Thank you for your help."
The tall and thin man chuckled and said, "I hope you're welcome, Commander. I'm here as well."
"Our adults have said that as long as you are willing to surrender, we will take you out now."
Zhu Lian paused and said in a hoarse voice: "Thank you for your love, but one slave will not serve two masters!"
"Anwu Health was born to protect the Qianwu Kingdom, and he should die to protect the Qianwu Kingdom."
The tall and thin man said: "You must think clearly. If we leave, the Xue family will kill you immediately to save worry."
"The Qianwu Kingdom has long existed in name only, and the only emperor is still a puppet controlled by the Xue family. Why are you doing this?"
Zhu Lian remained unmoved. The Xue family had told them many of these words. If they had listened, they would not have ended up like this.
"That means we are not dead yet! As long as we are still alive, we will defend this country until the last person."
"Then what if even the last emperor dies, what will happen to you Anwu Guards? Is it possible to become the emperor yourself?"
