Flowing Fire City.
City Lord's Mansion.
Wu Gong waved his hand, and the reviewed documents flew aside and folded into a pile.
Xuanxian Hongqiu on the side stretched out his hand and took the document. However, after he took the document, he still stood there and said nothing.
Wu Gong glanced at him, "Aren't you leaving yet?"
Hongqiu took a deep breath, his face was cold, but it was a little difficult to speak, "I have something to report to you, sir."
Wu Gong raised his eyelids and said calmly, "Is it still a matter of refining magical weapons and elixirs?"
Hongqiu was about to speak when his body suddenly trembled.
There was a panic in his heart: This is Wu Gong's murderous intention!
Ugong squinted at Hongqiu, the indifference on his face undisguised.
He has already made it clear about the refining of magic weapons and elixirs. If Hongqiu doesn't know what's good for him, he won't be merciful.
At this moment, Hongqiu suddenly thought of the scene passed down by his ancestors.
That was the scene of Black Palace slaying demons and building Flowing Fire City!
Hongqiu's legs went weak, and he knelt down with the document in hand. The words in his mouth blurted out without even having time to think.
"The Fire Chasing Bandits want to activate the volcano and destroy Flowing Fire City!"
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Wu Gong's lips.
He looked at Hongqiu who didn't dare to raise his head and said slowly, "You want to report Quanle, your brother?"
Hongqiu took a deep breath, and the trembling in his body gradually calmed down.
He opened his mouth to say something, but he swallowed it before he could say anything.
He gritted his teeth and said decisively, "Quanle has gone crazy!"
"There are millions of monsters in Flowing Fire City. Once the volcano erupts, millions of people will be buried with them!"
"I, I, I can't let him do such a thing!"
Wu Gong's eyes were slightly focused, and there was a hint of gloom in his expression, but he soon showed a smile.
"Ha." He couldn't tell whether it was ridicule or praise, Wu Gong laughed, "I really saw it right."
"Hongqiu, you are a saint!"
In order to protect the millions of monsters in Flowing Fire City, he became the subordinate and confidant of Wu Gong, the enemy who destroyed the entire clan.
Now, for the sake of the millions of monsters in Flowing Fire City, he betrayed his own brothers and betrayed the Fire Chaser who was dedicated to saving the monsters in Silver Lake.
Such a person can indeed be called a saint.
only......
Wu Gong had some emotions and some sarcasm, "It's just that, will the millions of monsters in the city respect you, or will they hate you?"
This question is not a question, but an affirmative.
Because over the past hundreds of years, both Wu Gong and Hongqiu have clearly seen the attitude of the demon clan in the city.
Their hatred for Hongqiu is even deeper than that of Wu Gong!
Traitors are always more hateful than enemies!
Hongqiu lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head, saying nothing.
Wu Gong waved his hand, "That's all, go down!"
"Sir!" Hongqiu raised his head subconsciously, "Please allow me to explain their plans one by one."
However, what he saw when he looked up was the cold sarcasm on Wu Gong's lips.
"No need, I already know." Wu Gong said.
Among those chasing the fire, there are spies from the Black Palace.
"Hongqiu." Wu Gong said calmly, "You don't have to interfere in this matter."
"The refining of magic weapons and elixirs in the city must not be reduced, but some of the environment can be improved." Wu Gong frowned, "You can handle this matter."
Hongqiu lowered his head, with a complicated look on his face.
He has worked for Wu Gong for hundreds of years, but it was because of his betrayal of his brother that he was recognized by Wu Gong.
The reason for not letting him get involved in the Fire Chaser's affairs was because he didn't want him to fight with his brothers.
Let him improve the workers' environment so that he can be recognized by the millions of monsters in the city.
This is all Ugong's kind treatment to his true confidants!
Hongqiu nodded deeply, "Yes."
He got up and left the office.
Wu Gong looked at his leaving figure and tapped his fingers on the table.
A shadow appeared behind him.
Wu Gong didn't look back and said directly, "All the Shadow Guards have been deployed in the underground volcano area."
Shadow responded coldly, "Yes."
Wu Gong said again, "The surveillance around Hongqiu can be withdrawn."
Youying was a little surprised, "Sir, if he contacts Quanle, then our arrangement will be useless."
Ugong sneered, "He won't."
Shadow seemed to have some doubts.
"You don't understand." Wu Gong said slowly, "Since he wants to be a saint, he must distinguish the priorities."
Compared with the millions of monsters in Flowing Fire City, brothers are naturally the lighter ones.
Wu Gong sighed softly, "It's a pity that such a person is not from our Jiaolong clan."
Youying didn't understand, so he didn't speak.
Wu Gong felt a little bored and waved his hand, "Go ahead."
"This time, we will chase the fire bandits and catch them all in one fell swoop!"
"Yes." The shadow disappeared.
...
Flowing Fire City.
A hut 10 kilometers outside the city lord's palace.
Inside, 53 fire chasers wearing black flat masks and black hooded robes gathered together.
Quanle, who was also wearing a mask and robe, glanced around and said quickly, "This time, we have staked everything."
"This plan can only succeed, not fail!"
Including Quanle, there are only 53 core fire chasers around him.
If this operation fails, the Fire Chasers will at least suffer heavy losses.
If he is unlucky and gets taken over by Wu Gong, the Fire Chaser will be completely devastated!
The other 52 men in black robes said nothing, just waiting for the next arrangement.
Quanle did not hesitate and continued, "There are some changes in the action plan this time."
Hearing this, a man in black robes' expression remained unchanged, but his heart skipped a beat.
If he hadn't entered the city now, he might have doubted whether he had been exposed!
But Quanle's next words made him relax.
"Because patrols in the city have intensified, we must break them into pieces to reduce the possibility of being caught."
It turned out to be such a change. The man in black robe was relieved.
Beside him, behind him, and in front of him, the three men in black robes also breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
Naturally, Quanle didn't know their psychological changes, so he just continued, "Now we are in groups of four, with one Xuanxian leading three Celestials to act together!"
"I'll do it alone."
"The action plan has been sent to you, then..." Quanle, wearing a mask and black robe, waved his hand, "Let's go!"
The 52 people were divided into 13 groups and left in different directions using various escape methods.
After watching everyone leave, Quan Le, wearing a mask and black robe, flashed and disappeared without a trace.
at the same time.
In the underground factory of Flowing Fire City, sporadic noises echoed in the dead silence.
Led by Hongqiu, a 1,000-strong city guard walked into this place full of blessings.
More than a dozen fish-headed monsters with wrinkles all over their bodies came up to him and saluted him with difficulty.
Hongqiu immediately went up to help them up.
These old monsters are the representatives elected by the workers in the underground factories.
Of course, this is not because their cultivation is strong or their reputation is high enough, but because they are too old to refine magic weapons and elixirs.
In fact, they have aged to the point where their spiritual power is weakening.
They no longer have any use except as the facade of the factory.
Moreover, it would not be a pity even if these aging monsters were casually killed by the city guards.
