Lin'an City.
Jewelry Pavilion.
"Okay, okay! Hahaha!"
Huo Xiu laughed, his face full of happiness and pride.
What made him so happy were naturally the two letters he had just received.
One copy was passed to him by the Iron-faced Judge, saying that he had successfully lured Xu Yi back to Jiangning City.
The other one came from Shangguan Feiyan, saying that he had successfully killed Dugu Yihe.
Both letters were written in unique cipher text, so there is no question about their authenticity!
"As soon as Dugu Yihe dies, the biggest hidden danger will disappear!"
"Next, we just need to deceive Lu Xiaofeng and pass the position of the owner of Qingyi Building to Huo Tianqing, and everything will end successfully!"
He had set the plan from the beginning.
The only problem, or the only pity for Huo Xiu, is the Qingyi Building.
After using it for two or three years, he found that the killer organization Qingyi Tower was quite useful, but in order to completely throw him out, this Qingyi Tower must be abandoned.
This was what he had decided from the beginning - otherwise, how could he dare to directly ask Qingyi Tower to kill the Shaolin Wudang people?
Isn't it because he has long been prepared to abandon Qingyi Building at any time!
"Although the main body of Qingyi Building must be abandoned, some elite personnel can still stay."
Huo Xiu thought about what he should do to minimize the loss as much as possible.
While he was thinking about how to preserve Qingyi Tower as much as possible, he didn't know that one group after another of Qingyi Tower killers were following 'his' order to launch the most violent attack on Lu Xiaofeng and others.
Wild valley.
"kill!"
Dozens of assassins in green clothes directly attacked Lu Xiaofeng and others.
Facing the three top masters, Lu Xiaofeng, Ximen Chuixue and Dugu Yihe, needless to say what happened to these killers, they all died.
"This is already the third batch!"
Lu Xiaofeng's face was gloomy, and there was even a hint of exhaustion in her expression.
In order to reach Lin'an City as soon as possible, they were already very tired from traveling day and night, and they also had to deal with continuous killer attacks. Even if the three of them were top experts, it was a bit unbearable.
Like the previous Four Shows of Emei, they originally followed them, but after the second killer attack, they had to stop because someone was injured.
"Just kill them when they come!"
Ximen Chuixue said coldly.
He blew lightly, and the blood on the tip of the sword dripped down, colliding with the ground, blooming with a scarlet color.
"This Huo Xiu! You can't do conspiracy, but now you want to use this method to deal with us! It's wishful thinking!"
Dugu Yihe snorted coldly.
After confirming that he was being plotted by Huo Xiu, his sense of Huo Xiu had dropped to the lowest point.
Although they were both one of the four ministers of the Jinpeng Dynasty, he and Huo Xiu had never been on the same path.
Huo Xiu's real name is Shangguan Mu, and he is a relative of the emperor. Even if he is a collateral relative, he naturally has a sense of superiority.
He has always disdained any interactions between him and Yan Tiezha.
Over the years, he had a good relationship with Yan Tiezha, but his relationship with Huo Xiu was only average.
Originally, he still had some love for the Jinpeng Dynasty, but after knowing that his old friend Yan Tiezha died under Huo Xiu's scheme, and that the other party even wanted to kill him too, he started to feel sorry for Huo Xiu. All that's left is hatred.
"This doesn't feel like Huo Xiu's style..."
Lu Xiaofeng frowned slightly.
"Why do you say that?"
"In my impression, Huo Xiu is more like a businessman. After knowing that his conspiracy was exposed, the first thing he should do is to stop the loss in time!"
It has to be said that Lu Xiaofeng's friends may know him very well, but he also knows his friends very well.
In the original work, a big reason why Lu Xiaofeng was able to make a comeback at the last moment despite being tricked by his friends many times was because he also knew his friends very well.
He discovered the clues among some clues, and then used the weaknesses of his 'friends' to successfully counterattack!
And what Huo Xiu was doing now was not in line with Lu Xiaofeng's understanding of him.
According to Lu Xiaofeng's understanding of Huo Xiu, if Huo Xiu knew that his conspiracy was exposed, he would definitely cut off his tail immediately to survive and protect his existing interests first.
As for the issue of revenge, he should wait until he has arranged everything before doing it, instead of frantically mobilizing the power of Qingyi Tower to attack them like now.
This completely goes against Lu Xiaofeng's understanding of Huo Xiu!
"Maybe he knew that his Qingyi Building could no longer be saved, so he simply asked them to launch a suicide attack? Kill us?"
Dugu Yihe said.
"Maybe."
Lu Xiaofeng said.
This reason barely made sense, but he didn't know why. He always felt that there might be a secret behind it that he didn't know.
"No matter what, let's go to the Jewelry Pavilion as soon as possible! It's too late, I'm worried that we may not find any traces at all!"
"good!"
······
Shanxi.
Some hidden valley.
Xu Yi opened his eyes and ended this short retreat.
"Soul energy increased by five years."
After practicing for nearly three hours, he spent more than a hundred Shiquan Dabu Pills. This was all he gained, and most of the medicinal energy and essence were wasted.
Xu Yi felt that his soul was still quite 'hungry' and knew that the transformation of his soul was not really over yet.
But he has no more time to waste here.
Lu Xiaofeng and others have already rushed to Lin'an City. If he wants to reap the final fruits, he must get there before them!
"Although I have borrowed Shangguan Feiyan's hand before and mobilized a large number of Qingyi Tower killers to stop them, this method can only stop them for a while at most."
Facing the three top masters in the world, Lu Xiaofeng, Ximen Chuixue and Dugu Yihe, it would be impossible to deal with them unless he mobilized thousands of Tsing Yi Tower killers at once.
Putting aside the question of whether Xu Yi can mobilize so many killers, the mere commotion caused by mobilizing so many killers at once is destined to make it impossible for this matter to proceed smoothly!
Do you really think that all the powerful people who had their own family members killed by Qingyi Tower are dead?
They didn't deal with Tsing Yi Tower before, mainly because Tsing Yi Tower was too hidden and scattered all over the world. It would be very troublesome to deal with it!
If you really dare to mobilize so many killers at once, the first thing you have to face is the alliance army of the major forces!
It is not feasible to mobilize killers on a large scale. Just dozens of killers at a time are just delivering food to Lu Xiaofeng and others.
Apart from causing some harassment to them and delaying them for a while, it basically has no effect.
If Xu Yi continues to 'retreat' here, his head will be snatched away by Lu Xiaofeng and the others!
"Walk!"
Xu Yi endured the 'hunger' in his soul and rushed towards Lin'an City.
While performing Qing Kung Fu, he swallowed the Shiquan Dabu Pill into his mouth. Although this was less efficient and more wasteful, he couldn't care less in an emergency.
And for Xu Yi now, that little waste is nothing.
Not talking about the wealth of the Jinpeng Dynasty that is about to be obtained, but talking about his original net worth and wealth, he doesn't care about the waste of these hundreds of Shiquan Dabu Pills.
"Bagua Youshenbu!"
"Thunder Step!"
Surrounded by purple zhenqi, Xu Yi was like a purple lightning bolt, traveling quickly through the mountains and forests.
He walked in a straight line, regardless of the terrain, directly crossing mountains and rivers, rushing to Lin'an City in the shortest distance and fastest speed.
······
Lin'an City.
Lou's Bufang.
third floor.
Lou Shuwan looked at the bustling scene below, which seemed to be no different from the past, but she couldn't help but feel a little sad in her eyebrows.
"According to the reports from the servants below, the number of suspicious people in Lin'an City has suddenly increased recently. If nothing else happens, this should be a precursor to Fang Tianlei's attack on the city!"
Regarding the fact that Fang Tianlei was likely to attack Lin'an City, Xu Yi did not hide it from her, and even asked her to prepare for it more than half a month ago.
At that time, Lou Shuwan still couldn't believe it. The Ming Dynasty may not be at its peak, but it can still be regarded as a prosperous country and peace in the world.
There may be some minor frictions on the border from time to time, but the Central Plains is still quite stable as a whole, and the Ming Dynasty's regime is also very stable.
If you want to say that some bandits are causing trouble and robbing some small mountain villages, that's nothing. There are always some who are audacious and do not know how to live or die.
Can we attack Lin'an City?
This is a city in a county!
It's not that there is no force in the world with such strength, but those who have the ability to do so must at least be a big force.
How long does it take for a big force in the world to develop and take shape?
Attack the county?
Putting aside the question of whether it can be attacked, even if it is defeated, it will definitely be a dead end when faced with the encirclement and suppression by the imperial army!
Which big force is so ignorant of life and death? Just want to die in such a hurry?
Lou Shuwan felt that people who could develop into a powerful force would probably not be so stupid.
But it turns out that there is really such a big force rushing to die!
"Is everything ready?"
Lou Shuwan hid the worry on her face and spoke calmly.
"Master, everything is ready when we go home."
"Very good! Go ahead and tell me, when the time comes, all the industries will be closed down!"
"Yes! Master!"
The Lou family members bowed and left.
Lou Shuwan looked into the distance and murmured.
"Husband, where are you? Wan'er misses you so much."
······
Outside Lin'an City.
Among the dense mountain forests.
Groups of bandits and bandits have secretly gathered here.
If there are people here, they are all well-known bandit gangs from several counties and cities near Lin'an City, with numbers ranging from hundreds to thousands.
They gathered together and their number reached nearly 100,000!
These bandits, who were usually separated in various places, were all gathered here under the call of Sheng Gong Fang Tianlei.
Inside a temporary tent.
Shenggong Fang Tianlei summoned all the bandit leaders.
"Everyone!"
Fang Tianlei spoke loudly and looked around.
"I won't say any more nonsense, our big event is about to begin! Capture Lin'an City! We can liberate Lin'an! Have massive wealth and power!"
"From today on, we will let the whole world know about our existence!"
"God bless us!"
"God bless you!"
"God bless you!"
A group of fanatical bandit leaders shouted loudly.
"drink wine!"
Fang Tianlei picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"Drink! Drink!"
The bandit leaders cheered, as if they had thought of the bright future of occupying Lin'an City.
"After capturing Lin'an City, I will definitely snatch ten or eight of his beauties!"
"It's so vulgar! What's the use of robbing women? It's better to robbing money! How rich Lin'an City is! Robbing just a few families will be enough for us to spend for several lifetimes! With money, what kind of women can't be used? arrive?"
"Bah! What do you people know? Don't normal people only want money and women?"
"That makes sense! Both money and women are needed! Steal money! Steal women!"
A group of robbers shouted one after another, with extremely excited expressions on their faces.
Liu Xigua frowned, watching all this, but thinking in his heart, was his persistence really right?
Is the Holy Gong really serving the people of the world?
Letting such a group of people rush into Lin'an City, no one knows how much damage it will cause!
Although she was born a bandit, Liu Xigua's nature was kind. When asked to rob rich businessmen who were ruthless for the sake of wealth, she had no qualms in her heart and could strike faster than anyone else.
But if she was asked to harm the people, she wouldn't be able to do it.
The reason why she chose to support Shenggong Fang Tianlei was because Shenggong Fang Tianlei told them that he wanted to build a harmonious world where everyone is equal.
She believed it.
But now that she was looking at these bandit leaders shouting loudly to steal money and women, she suddenly didn't believe it anymore.
"This is all a necessary process."
Liu Dabiao patted Liu Xigua on the shoulder.
"Don't worry! The Anglican Church will restrain them!"
"Well, I understand."
Liu Xigua pursed her lips, not sure whether she believed it or not.
"Dad, I'm tired and want to go for a walk."
"Well, you go ahead."
Liu Dabiao opened his mouth, but in the end he said nothing and let Liu Xigua leave the tent.
Liu Xigua walked out of the big tent, hoping to be out of sight and out of mind, but the scene he saw outside was even worse than what he saw in the big tent.
Looking at the bandits who were brazenly discussing what to do after entering Lin'an City, she couldn't help but have such thoughts in her heart.
“Can we really build a world where everyone is equal with this group of people?”
Liu Xigua was confused.
Inside the big tent.
Shenggong Fang Tianlei looked at the bandit leaders below, an inexplicable smile flashed across his lips.
That’s it!
If you don't get excited, how can I make you willing to die?
Fang Tianlei drank all the wine in his glass again. The spicy taste could not cover up his equally fiery heart.
"The stage has been set, and all that's left is for the protagonists to take the stage!"
