Imperial Master's Mansion, outside.
Five figures occupy the five corners of the sky, sitting cross-legged and ready.
The five of them are all foundation-builders under the Xiao family, and they are also the reinforcements that Ma Ying has summoned tonight.
"Why do you have to wait so long? What kind of tricks is Ma playing?" One person got impatient and expressed his dissatisfaction angrily.
"People can play whatever tricks they like. Do you want to question even the great national master?" another person said.
This sentence seems to be speaking for Ma Ying, but in fact it is strange and sarcastic.
The other four people all snorted coldly when they heard this.
Ma Ying joined the Xiao family for the shortest time, but was the most respected. She was awarded the position of Imperial Master, and had the power to influence the Northern Liang Dynasty. She stepped on the heads of other senior ministers and enjoyed the treatment of the number one celebrity.
Of course it will arouse dissatisfaction and jealousy from everyone.
Like tonight, when Ma Ying gives a secret order, they must be present and cannot be disobeyed.
But until now, they don't even know what they are going to do or who they are going to deal with.
"Keep waiting."
The five people stopped talking.
After a moment of silence, the five people suddenly changed their expressions.
Under the induction of spiritual consciousness, they clearly noticed an abnormal fluctuation in mana.
Coming from below!
Through the strict restrictions, it came clearly!
The five people stood up in surprise. Before they could react, they heard a loud "boom" in their ears, which made their eardrums sting.
Under the feet, colorful lights gathered into a colorful mushroom cloud and exploded!
The five people all changed their colors!
The terrifying power contained in this mushroom cloud is enough to make them terrified!
"retreat!"
The five people did not dare to express their power directly, so they all controlled the escape light and retreated sideways as if they were electrocuted.
The power of the mushroom cloud exploded, pressing behind them like a death scythe chasing souls.
After retreating several hundred meters, the power behind them gradually weakened. When the five people turned around, they were already breaking out in a cold sweat.
"what happened?"
"Is Ma Ying crazy?"
The five people's faces were ashen and they were cursing in their hearts.
The horrific consequences of this sudden explosion are shocking!
The Imperial Master's Mansion in the center was razed to the ground, the streets were in a mess, and the surrounding buildings protected by prohibitions were also severely damaged.
The restrictions of several mansions were directly destroyed, the buildings collapsed, and screams and curses were heard.
In the darkness, countless escaping lights lit up, and all the monks in the city were alarmed.
The five foundation-building monks looked at each other and made up their minds at the same time.
"Walk!"
The five people escaped into the darkness silently.
When things made such a big fuss, how could they care about Ma Ying's secret message? The right thing to do is to leave as soon as possible!
As for whether Ma Ying lives or dies, they don't even care!
Some people even gloated about their misfortune.
Ma Ying caused an explosion in Wangfu Hutong. It would be strange if he was not impeached and died after the incident!
This guy's good days are over!
…
Underground world.
Ling Xiao penetrated the black magnetic rock layer and fell with a "plop", making him groan.
Struggling to get up, Ling Xiao took out a porcelain bottle and poured it into his mouth without looking at it.
There was a burning pain on his back, and he was even more frightened when he thought of the scene just now.
The 200 attack talismans, coupled with the all-powerful attack of Minglong's remaining dragon soul, shattered the restrictions of the Imperial Master's Mansion without any surprise.
The explosion that can inhibit damage, coupled with the power released by the talisman, is more terrifying than Ling Xiao expected!
If the Dragon Vein Diagram hadn't escaped quickly enough, and the back of Minglong Palace had resisted, Ling Xiao might have arrived not underground, but under Jiuquan.
When the time comes to meet Ma Ying, there will inevitably be another battle between lonely souls and wild ghosts.
"But just come out."
Ling Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, changed his clothes, and raised his hand to summon.
The Dark Dragon reappears.
At this moment, Minglong released all the power of the dragon soul, and blocked the damage of the explosion for Ling Xiao. His aura was extremely weak, and his figure was extremely illusory, as if transparent.
The true realm is also revealed.
The early stage of foundation building.
Ling Xiao was both distressed and satisfied, and quickly put it back into the little black ball.
"It will probably take some time to warm up."
he murmured.
And as the dragon soul dissipated, the dragon vein map completely lost its effectiveness and turned into a rag.
Ling Xiao secretly thought it was a pity.
Thinking back on what he had experienced all day today, he had an unreal feeling like a dream.
Play the role of cook in the morning, kill Xiao Weiyu at noon, kill the dragon soul in the afternoon, and kill Ma Ying in the evening.
During this period, Izumo Kingdom also declared war on Beiliang Kingdom.
It seemed that all the major events of the whole year were concentrated on this day.
What a long day.
Ling Xiao felt deeply tired.
For the past seven years, he had lived for revenge. Now that his revenge had been avenged, he suddenly felt confused.
"go home."
he said softly.
Then he gathered his thoughts, looked in the right direction, and slowly walked into the darkness.
Following the memory, Ling Xiao returned to the end of the spiritual vein, sneaked into it, and took out two large urns.
After opening it and checking it, Ling Xiao nodded secretly.
The bitter and sour golden bamboo shoots have been pickled, but unfortunately they are not much better than those at Zhenlong Restaurant.
Ling Xiao was not discouraged.
Let's study how to improve it when we get back.
The potential of bitter and sour golden bamboo shoots does not stop there.
As for the ghost wine, it still lacks a lot of time, so Ling Xiao can only put it away first and wait until he returns to continue aging.
Find the hole and get back to the surface.
Looking at the courtyard in his memory, Ling Xiao smiled slightly.
The brother and sister seemed to have never come back.
After coming out, Ling Xiao looked at the next door again, then shook his head and left.
He went to Xifang City.
This is a paradise for spiritual plants and spiritual food.
As soon as he entered Fangshi, he felt the tense atmosphere.
It's really "war time".
Ling Xiao sighed with emotion.
In his ears, he heard some monks discussing the big explosion in Zhongyangfang City just now. Of course, Ling Xiao was not interested and walked into a store by himself.
Then, Ling Xiao realized what it means to be "an antique in prosperous times, gold in troubled times".
It had only been one day since the news of Izumo's invasion, but the prices of various supplies in the stores had already skyrocketed like a rocket.
First-level intermediate talisman, 4 spiritual stones and 1 piece!
First-level advanced talisman, 30 spiritual stones per piece!
Ling Xiao saw it and wished he could make talismans on the spot and sell them, but fortunately he held back in the end.
Come to the counter of the spirit beast.
As expected of the imperial capital, even the types of second-order spiritual beasts on sale are diverse. Unlike Linfeng City, where there are only a few kinds of first-order spiritual beasts like those with horns.
After selecting for a while, Ling Xiao bought three of the spirit beasts.
They are 200 Hanyu River Spots, 2,000 Yunxi Snails, and 100 Shentan Hairy Crabs.
They were all second-level spirit beast cubs, and the price was certainly not trivial, costing Ling Xiao nearly 20,000 spirit stones!
When Ling Xiao paid, his heart was bleeding.
From now on, raising any one to death will be like cutting off meat!
But I have to buy it.
These spirit beasts cannot be bought in Linfeng City, and the further you wait, the more expensive they will be!
After buying the spirit beasts, Ling Xiao hung several spirit beast bags on his waist and walked around the city. After buying a variety of rare ingredients and dry goods, he rushed to Dongfang City and raided various stores. Wind and thunder attribute talisman making materials.
Big purchase!
Crazy shopping!
Until the rising sun, Ling Xiao came out of a certain store and let out a sigh of relief.
"I am going home."
he said softly.
Ling Xiao finally looked in the direction of Central Square City and turned around to leave.
