Jiang Wang did not stay in Chaosixiang for long. Early the next morning, he said goodbye to Xu Huaibi and Zhao Xiyan.
But before leaving, he was told that if he encountered any trouble, he could go to Wanglai Lake in Huncheng to find him.
According to the original plan, after returning to Huncheng, the brothers Su Changluo and Yu Xichao led the members of the Night Travel Division, including A Kong, Mo Baipao and others, to set out to eliminate the Kutan monster. Originally, A Kong She didn't want to go, but after receiving Jiang Wang's signal, Yu Xichao carried her away in a daze.
Although Akong eats nothing but food every day, he is not weak at all.
This trip is not only about slaying demons, but also a true spiritual practice in Wanglai Lake.
The duty of the Black Flame Army and the Nanjing Army is to stabilize the towns around Huncheng. In addition to continuing to treat Li Shenyuan, Jiang Wang spends the rest of his time condensing his divinity and helping the new life luck to speed up the covering of Kutan. .
Although luck cannot prevent monsters from arising, the scope of the Kingdom of God can also be shrouded in Kutan through luck. At that time, he can solve any situation as soon as possible.
Just a few days after Su Changluo and the others left, another eunuch from the city of God visited Huncheng, but it was not the eunuch who came to announce the decree before.
Perhaps knowing the situation last time, the servant of Shendu did not enter through the main gate of Huncheng, but came directly to the gate of Wanglai Hushan.
Jiang Wang did not engage in any more battles to show off his power. He only led Shan Qiyu and a few other Black Flame Army soldiers out of the mountain gate. Looking at the familiar Lin Guards of Shendu and the unfamiliar servants of Shendu, Jiang Wang said with a smile. : "Why did you change the person?"
The new servant of the city of God was older and looked much more stable. With a slight smile on his lips, he stepped forward to salute respectfully and said, "I'd like to report to the Marquis, that kid doesn't understand the rules and bumped into the Marquis. When he arrived in the capital of God, he kept talking nonsense and falsely accused the Marquis, and the old slave had him killed."
Jiang Wang narrowed his eyes slightly.
He didn't pay much attention to the old chamberlain's attitude and asked calmly: "Are you here to announce the decree again?"
The old chamberlain immediately took out the imperial edict and read it directly, regardless of whether Jiang Wang knelt down to receive it.
The general meaning is that Chen Jinghuai expressed some concern for Jiang Wang as an elder, and then made some idle gossip. It didn't seem like an imperial edict. The final expression was that he wanted to entrust Jiang Wang with important tasks, but after all, he was in a remote place. He had been in the small city for many years and did not understand many things, so he was asked to go to the capital of the gods and enroll in Yuyuan Mansion, intending to train him well.
The old chamberlain smiled and handed over the imperial edict, "Your Majesty hopes that the Marquis will leave immediately."
Jiang Wang received the imperial edict and said expressionlessly: "I still have some things to do, so don't be in a hurry."
The old chamberlain just frowned slightly, "The old servant will wait for the Marquis."
Jiang Wang ignored it.
Even if Chen Jinghuai doesn't let him go to Shendu, he will go, but he is fully prepared to go, and Chen Jinghuai is obviously fully prepared to let him go. There is still a difference between the two.
He just let the old chamberlain do as he pleased, then turned and returned to the city.
And shut the city gate tightly.
It was obvious that he had no intention of letting the old chambermaid and his entourage stay in Qixia Street.
But the old chamberlain chuckled and raised his hand and said, "We will take a detour into the city."
Shendu Linwei did not dare to have any objections, nor did he say anything bad about Jiang Wang, because the last eunuch who came to announce the decree was a lesson learned from the past.
Regardless of anything else, on the surface Jiang Wang seems to be really favored. No matter how the God's Lin Guard is a decoration, they are also the emperor's personal soldiers, so they naturally know when to say something and when to do something.
...
In the Xunyang Hou Mansion.
Uncle Tong looked at the imperial edict, frowned and said, "He turned a blind eye to Wanglai Lake, Nanxun Army, etc., and even praised him in every possible way. It was really hypocritical, but the more he did this, the more it meant that he had nothing to do. Thinking about it, can you refuse the trip to the divine capital?"
Jiang Wang drank tea and said calmly: "The gods are full of troubles and undercurrents, but only secretly. On the surface, he won't do anything to me, at least not for the time being. I can probably guess his purpose in letting me go to the gods. There is no need to refuse, Uncle Tong just needs to make preparations in Huncheng."
Uncle Tong hesitated and said, "Actually, you..."
Jiang Wang interrupted: "I have my own sense of discretion."
He stood up and said, "Tong Bo, please pay attention to that
As a servant in the capital of God, I have to race against time. "
Jiang Wang devoted himself to aggravating the new luck covering Ku Tan, which slightly delayed the treatment of Li Shenyuan. The latter learned that Jiang Wang would go to Shendu soon and also changed his mind, but before that, she had to get back a Walong cicada.
Sister A did not follow, and Li Shenyuan left alone.
It’s ten days in a blink of an eye.
During the period, the old chamberlain approached the Black Flame Army soldier who was guarding Wanglai Lake in front of the tailor's shop and asked when he was going to set off. Jiang Wang ignored him casually. Ten days later, the old chamberlain led the Shendu Lin Guards to the tailor's shop. But he happened to meet another group of people visiting Xunyang Hou Mansion, and he watched helplessly as they were taken into Qixia Street by the Black Flame Army soldiers.
There seemed to be ripples in front of the lake, and those few people suddenly disappeared.
The old chamberlain tried to reach out and touch, but there was an invisible wall blocking him. No matter how much he urged Huang Tingqi, it would not help.
He looked surprised.
Recalling the three people he just visited, one of the young men looked quite familiar. It took him a while to think about the other person's identity - the True Legend of the Sword God, thank you!
...
It was evening, and I saw a group of people stepping out of the city in front of Hushan Gate.
Xie Wuxing was mumbling, just saying that we haven't seen each other for a long time and you surprised me in various ways.
Jiang Wang simply ignored it, looked at Ruoshuiqiu and Rong Yulu and asked, "What kind of monster can make you helpless?"
Ruoshuiqiu said in a deep voice: "In short, it is something that monks from the Snow Bathing Realm can't deal with. Your Excellency, Sword God, has other monsters that need to be dealt with. After much deliberation, we can only ask you for help."
Rong Yulu continued: "Although the Ku Tan demon problem has indeed weakened a lot, there are still a lot of troubles. From time to time, there are a few more difficult guys who appear. Some of them are not very good, but they have quite weird methods. They are not at all compatible with If you confront him head-on, it will be more difficult to surrender than fighting a big demon."
Jiang Wang nodded. The new luck covering the bitter sandalwood did not happen overnight. Without thinking about losing too much divinity, even if he speeded up, it would not be much faster. Anyway, he would not follow the wishes of the old chamberlain. Since Ruoshuiqiu When someone asks him for help, he has no reason to refuse.
Su Changluo and Yu Xichao did not seek cooperation with Jiange and Wushen Temple at the first time, and they had only set out for more than 20 days. Ku Tan was so big that the probability of meeting directly was very low. Therefore, when Jiang Wang asked, Ruo Shuiqiu and Xie Wuxing knew nothing about it.
But on their way to Huncheng, they did hear that people under the banner of Wanglai Lake were going around killing demons.
It will take time for Wanglai Lake to be established and the Qingxuan Office to announce it to the world. It does not mean that the world will know it immediately.
Especially Xie Wuxing and others, who had been ordered to slay demons from the beginning, had no time to care about anything else.
It wasn't until they came to Huncheng that they understood what Wanglai Lake was.
The location of the monster to be dealt with is Lingyang County, which is thousands of miles away from Jiuxian County.
But Xie Wuxing, who had already broken through the realm of bathing in snow, could arrive in a blink of an eye even with two warriors from the fourth realm.
Although the new life luck covering Kutan spreads outward with Huncheng as the center, Huncheng is located in a relatively remote place at the southern end of Kutan. At most a few hundred miles further south is the boundary of Kutan, and these more than a few hundred miles It is a mountain range and there are few people inhabiting it, so the luck spreads in three directions: east, west, north and west.
At present, the straight line covers tens of thousands of miles, and Lingyang County is naturally included.
They arrived at Lingyang County after drinking tea.
Lingyang County is much larger than Jiuxian County, and even the small town at the foot of the mountain is comparable to Huncheng.
The sky has not yet completely darkened.
But there is a thick mist filling the town, and it is even more decorated with lights.
On the surface, there is no big problem. It is normal for there to be fog in the mountains, and there is no evil spirit here. It is more like a quiet place where the people have fallen asleep.
Ruo Shuiqiu said with a solemn expression: "Lingyang County is no longer plagued by monsters, but scattered monsters are scattered everywhere, making them even more difficult to find. When we found this place after looking for monsters, the town had already fallen and no one survived. , Fortunately, the monster had no plans to leave the town, so we dared to leave temporarily and ask for help."
Xie Wuxing answered: "But the monster has set up a trap in the town.
In the fantasy world, we couldn't find any trace of it at all, and even almost died in the town. "
Jiang Wang was surprised and said, "So you haven't seen the monster at all?"
Rong Yulu's cheeks were hot and he said: "That is indeed the case, or it can be said that we have contacted the monster, but we did not figure out where it is. If Brother Xie hadn't saved me, I would have died here inexplicably."
Xie Wuxing said: "It's a lucky thing that I was able to escape. Although Brother Jiang... is very advanced now, the origin of this monster is unknown, so we still have to be careful."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Wang stepped directly into the town.
Xie Wuxing immediately opened his eyes, turned to look at Ruoshuiqiu and said, "Did he listen to me just now?"
Ruo Shuiqiu narrowed his eyes and said: "Jiang Wang can defeat even Wen Mubai. His cultivation is no longer what it used to be. Even if the monster is a monster king, he should be able to deal with it. But just in case, Rong Yulu will stay outside the town for the time being." , let’s follow.”
Rong Yulu had no objection. He was afraid that he would really die if he went in again.
Jiang Wang walked along the bluestone road.
Xie Wuxing and Ruoshuiqiu, who followed closely behind, were very cautious.
Ruo Shuiqiu reminded: "There may be people in the town, but they are not real people. They are very dangerous. We almost suffered a big loss when we mistook them for people."
Jiang Wang stopped somewhere that looked like an ancestral hall.
There were people moving inside.
Xie Wuxing said in surprise: "We didn't see this place last time!"
Ruo Shuiqiu has already unsheathed his sword.
Jiang Wang observed silently, and soon someone came out of the ancestral hall, an old man wearing a Confucian robe.
He showed a kind smile and was about to say something, but when he noticed Xie Wuxing and Ruoshuiqiu, his expression suddenly froze, and he swallowed the words on his lips, and then said with a stern look on his face: "How dare you come back?"
Xie Wuxing sneered: "Why, you still want to play the same old trick, pretending to be from the town and saying welcome to the guests?"
Although I had not seen the ancestral hall last time, I could guess from the reaction of the old man in Confucian robes that the route had not changed at all.
The cold and stern expression of the old man in Confucian robes gradually turned sinister, and he said, "Now that you're back, don't even think about leaving again."
More and more people came out of the ancestral hall, including men, women and children. Perhaps they were copied from the people in the small town. They all had sinister smiles on their faces, surrounding Jiang Wang and others.
There was a continuous crow over the town.
Jiang Wang looked at it thoughtfully and suddenly said: "Since we have set up an illusion to disguise the people in the town, there must be a purpose."
"Xie Wuxing and the others escaped, so they knew it. If you don't know, it would be difficult to see the problem at a glance. They are afraid that someone will notice, and they also want to keep the people who came here forever. The town has obviously been destroyed. But you didn’t leave. Is there something special about this place, or is it that you can’t leave for the time being?”
The old man in Confucian robes said calmly: "Why do you ask so many questions? You won't make the same mistake twice. You are destined to die here."
Ruo Shuiqiu said with relief: "After we escaped alive, we should have understood that the situation in the town could no longer be concealed, but we still followed the plan step by step. Sure enough, there is a reason why we can't leave for the time being, right?"
The old man in Confucian robes had a sullen face, and with a wave of his hand, the people coming out of the ancestral hall screamed and rushed towards him.
Xie Wuxing quickly reminded Jiang Wangdao: "If we don't catch the monsters hiding in the town, these guys will kill them endlessly, and it will be easier for us to tire ourselves to death!"
