"Roar!"
"Take back the treasure box!" shouted the flute player.
Black Scorpion looked back at the giant beast that emerged from the crack in the darkness. The red light filled the sky. She hurriedly issued a spell, and the treasure box flew back into her hands. At the same time, she sacrificed a teleportation stone and turned it into a door, " Walk."
Bang, Shui Qilin's huge palm fell in front of the door, patting the two or three half-masked men, but still told them to run away.
Without the treasure box, the crack expanded rapidly, peeling off the messy and charred ruins. Lianwei sensed the fluctuations in the space. He quickly looked at Zhan Changfeng, who was sheltered by the giant beast, and said to Wu Feiyu, "You guard."
After saying that, he chased the traces in the space and left.
Wu Feiyu dropped her body and hugged the crumbling Zhan Changfeng. She didn't know where to put her hands. Everywhere she touched her hands were covered with blood, especially in her abdomen, where a domineering force was destroying her body.
"Roar! Aww~" The giant beast continued to shrink, turning into a snow-white ball, staggering towards Zhan Changfeng, but fell down and failed to get up again.
Zhan Changfeng thrust a photo stone into Wu Feiyu's hands, unable to speak. The blood surged up at the slightest movement, and he seemed to be unable to stop coughing.
"You're really good!" Wu Feiyu didn't know who was angry with whom. After taking a glance, he shouted to Xu Yang and An Zaichang who were coming over, "Let Yu Sheng. You Buhui come!"
She couldn't care about anything else, she hugged Zhan Changfeng, picked up the little fox, and galloped into the courtyard of Crescent Bay. The top priority was to treat their injuries!
The water unicorn followed each other and sprayed out a stream of water, sealing the courtyard and isolating the exploring monks.
King Donglin felt a burning pain on his face. Looking at the dilapidated posture on the ground, it was obvious that he had been fighting for a while, but they, who were less than ten miles away from here, didn't even notice it!
It’s okay if they don’t know, what do the guards of the royal garden do for food!
The garden guard had already come to him with a pale face to apologize, but when asked, he didn't know what he said.
King Donglin glanced around and saw True Lord Shengfeng, "True Lord, the guard just said that Marquis Linyao came here with people from Pingyun faction to test medicine. How could such a change happen?"
Zhenjun Shengfeng pressed his head down and replied calmly, "At that time, Marquis Linyao refused to admit that it was because of the ointment, so he borrowed the room to cast a spell in order to summon Wei Yizhou's earthly soul back. I couldn't be bothered, so I returned to my residence to conduct research. After the case, the Chinese medical officer and I went to the palace to borrow books about spiritual consciousness elixirs. Alas, I don’t know why something like this happened."
The Donglin medical officer next to him corroborated his words.
"Has Marquis Linyao offended some powerful enemy and sneaked into the hinterland of Donglin to kill people?" King Jingyao's words were profound. Yun Yao disappeared in Donglin, and Marquis Linyao was attacked in the royal garden. Donglin will end up in the end. Is it too weak, or is it someone behind the scenes?
King Donglin didn't want to reply to his words, nor did he want people to watch here. He said in a deep voice, "The fighting will be suspended for one day. Please go back to your residence and rest. Please don't move around until the matter is revealed."
He had never thought that someone could do such a thing in his royal capital. He was suppressing his anger, as if his home was being rummaged in and out at will, but the thief could not be found. He was furious and embarrassed.
When he turned around and returned to the palace, facing his subjects, he didn't look so good, and he reprimanded them sternly.
An hour later, the entire royal capital was sealed off, and the Heavenly Lord was in charge personally, monitoring the surrounding areas.
Crescent Bay Building
Wu Feiyu cast a cleaning spell on himself and closed the door. Lord Runyan, who was waiting beside him, asked, "Is there any serious problem?"
"It's nothing serious, just some broken bones and some damage to the muscles, veins and organs."
"..." Is this okay?
"It's true that the little fox used too much force and may have injured his roots. I'm going to find some medicinal materials. I'd like to have Lord Runyan watch over this." Wu Feiyu pressed his eyebrows and mustered up the energy to find the medicine.
It was already dark when Zhan Changfeng woke up. The room was quiet and dark, with only the windows faintly white.
Her soul power was too exhausted. When she woke up, she thought she would have a splitting headache and hurt her soul. However, she didn't expect that although she was a little weak, she was still comfortable. She recalled that there was a gentle force surrounding her when she was unconscious. She expected it to be Wu Feiyu took action.
The sound of weak breathing floated in the room. Zhan Changfeng pushed himself up and walked to the small couch in the west. The white fox was curled up into a ball, still sleeping.
Zhan Changfeng sat by the couch for a while, then reluctantly took out the golden lotus that was protecting the altar and put it into it.
The door opened slightly. Lianwei sensed that she was awake. She walked in and lifted the black cover on the octagonal lamp. The light of the lighting stone lit up the room. "How do you feel?"
"It's okay." The injuries on her body looked serious, but in fact they were not serious at all. After Wu Feiyu helped her reattach her bones and tendons, she was able to recover in less than ten days.
She slowly stood up and walked back to her couch, folding her arms slightly and watching quietly.
...Zhan Changfeng felt inexplicably that she was mocking him.
Lianwei waited for her to sit cross-legged on the couch and said seriously, "These people escaped using the teleportation stone. The end of the teleportation stone was near Jiemen Mountain. When I chased after them, there was no trace of them. Who are they? ?”
"I'm not very clear either." Zhan Changfeng guided his vitality throughout his body to relieve the pain, while recounting what happened this morning.
It was beyond her expectation that Chuan Duan could summon such a powerful force, and whether Shengfeng Zhenjun and him were senior friends or some kind of interest parties, it was also worth pondering.
It's a pity that she couldn't hear the conversation between the two people at that time.
"When did you have such a big hatred against Chuan Duan? After letting him slander your ointment, he then called a person with powerful supernatural powers from the realm of life and death to kill you?"
Zhan Changfeng was sitting uncomfortably, leaning slightly and resting an elbow on his knee. "I don't think he is capable of doing such a thing personally. There must be someone or a powerful force behind him."
He kept his voice low and did not point out the awkward posture behind Feng Qingyundan's back. He discussed a lot of things with her seriously. Seeing that her face turned pale again, he ended the conversation with one sentence: "You will be here tomorrow." The two-year quota is gone, and I still owe the public treasury 500,000 medium-grade spiritual stones."
"...So sudden? Why?" Zhan Changfeng was a little confused.
Lianwei smiled softly, with a noble and cold look, looked at her, and calculated the accounts carefully with her, "According to the bill provided by Wu Feiyu, you and Bai Hu are expected to spend 135 million middle-grade spirits. Shi, Yu Sheng and You Buhui came to deal with the stall. Just opening the teleportation array will consume 600,000 mid-grade spiritual stones. The foolish financial official of the Donglin Dynasty also tried to make you compensate 6.7 million high-grade spiritual stones. The cost of destroying the spirit stones adds up to a huge amount, so you are not allowed to overpay?"
Zhan Changfeng suspected that he had become a fake clan leader, "Are you so clear-minded?"
"If something happens to our clan leader, the money will of course come from the public treasury. I'm afraid that when someone does something, he doesn't regard himself as the clan leader at all." Lianwei Gangke heard it. She found that Chuan Duan was handing over to that group of mysterious people, and she only went back to protect herself. The corpse and Cao Baozhi knew they were in danger, but they didn't even send a message to them.
If the clan leader died one day, they might not even know where she fell.
What's the use of a monarch and patriarch who could disappear or die at any time without their knowledge?
Lian Wei hummed, "Do you have anything to reflect on?"
Zhan Changfeng considered it carefully, "Next time we must transform a teleportation array that does not waste spiritual stones."
"...You won't be able to get any spiritual stone materials from me within three years." Lianwei walked away with a flick of his sleeves.
Zhan Changfeng sighed, she had been used to it all these years, and she never thought of informing them. What's more, she thought those people were not a threat, how could she have expected that she would not be able to use the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.
She simply doesn't use spirit stones personally, so Lianwei's financial sanctions are of no use to her. If they are really short, she still has a lot of debts in hand, and she can go to collect debts.
Thinking like this, a shadow appeared on the top of her head. When she raised her eyes, she saw Lian Wei looking at her coldly.
"I forgot, last time you said you would hand those bills into the public treasury, give them to me now."
