The void outside the star observatory was forcibly broken open. After He Yingrui, the leader of the second battalion, walked out first, dozens of Xingyuan guards wearing star robes followed her and appeared in the air one after another.
Without He Yingrui's instructions, the five guards following her immediately formed a combined attack formation and pursued the warriors who rushed out of the dungeon.
Beside He Yingrui, there were only six guards left whose cultivation levels were above the fifth level.
With He Yingrui's third-grade master's cultivation, if Ruoran teamed up with six other team guards to form a joint attack formation, it would be enough to confront the high-grade master head-on!
There are a total of forty-nine robed men in the seven detachments of the second battalion. Now, including He Yingrui, only six of them have come. The remaining sixth-level real person Tian Muran of the second battalion and his direct subordinate robed men cooperate with another group of guards. The sixth-level camp leader Feng Ziyuan and other camp guards jointly guarded Xingyuan City to prevent anyone from attacking from the east to the west.
He Yingrui just glanced at the chaos around the observatory and stopped paying attention. She took a few steps in the air and came to the observatory. The leader of the team had already come forward to greet her.
"What happened to make it look like this?"
He Yingrui's tone was very serious. Her eyes did not even fall on the leader of the square, but passed directly over him and landed on the top of the observatory. She could sense that there was a being there who was not inferior to her in cultivation. .
How come there are martial arts masters from the outside world?
Although He Yingrui had received the news in advance and was aware of the seriousness of the matter, when she truly felt that the real person from the outside world was right in front of her, her heart inevitably jumped.
Was this person already lurking in the Starfield before the dojo escaped into the void, or did he enter here afterward?
If it's the former, then this person's method of concealing himself is really powerful, but why did he reveal his whereabouts at this time? Is Xingyuan City still alive at this time?
If it was the latter... He Yingrui couldn't even imagine the seriousness of the problem!
"A strange sixth-level real person, who had been hiding under the dungeon with his cultivation before, suddenly broke out of the dungeon and rushed out. I couldn't deal with it, and this person took advantage of the situation and rushed into the observatory. Now Xiao The master and ten other stargazers and star masters fell into the hands of that man.”
The captain's eyes were red and he looked extremely anxious, but he still tried his best to remain calm and rational in front of He Yingrui.
He Yingrui breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. Since the other person rushed out of the dungeon, it meant that there was a high possibility that this person was lurking in the dojo beforehand. However, the expression on her face was still serious and she said: "Do you know the identity of this person?"
The team leader lowered his head and said: "I don't know! The dungeon was destroyed and everyone escaped..."
"You don't have to say anything!"
He Yingrui interrupted him, looked down at the observatory, and said, "Brother Liu, did you find anything there?"
The leader of the square turned his head and looked along the line of sight of Camp Leader He, and saw Liu Jiuzhen walking out of the gap in the dungeon with the three guards who were originally imprisoned with him in the third underground cell.
After hearing He Yingrui's inquiry, Liu Jiuzhen did not fly into the air to join him. Instead, he sat inconspicuously on a broken boulder under the observatory and said calmly: "The blockade of the cells on the third floor underground has always existed. , this shows that the person is imprisoned on the upper and middle floors. The lower the level of concealment of a real person in the martial arts realm, the more difficult it is. Therefore, I guess that the person should be disguised as a fifth-level heavenly warrior and is imprisoned on the second floor. "
Upon hearing this, He Yingrui glared at Captain Fang and said, "You should have released the third-level lockdown as soon as possible and asked Zhu from the Sixth Team and his colleagues from the First Battalion to help, and the situation would not be like this!"
Liu Jiuzhen's body below was surrounded by vitality. It seemed that his cultivation had not yet truly recovered. However, after the other three guards of the first battalion came out of the dungeon, they quickly devoted themselves to chasing down the fleeing warriors.
At this time, hearing He Yingrui's rebuke, Liu Jiuzhen said calmly: "I'm afraid I can't blame him. After all, it was Xing Xingtian who gave him the order to take good care of me and others. At that time, maybe he was still suspecting that I was collaborating with outsiders. After destroying the observatory, it is inevitable to be at a loss when one loses sight of the other. In any case, no matter how powerful the Xingyuan Guards' combined attack formation is, they are still not as good as the Wuxu Realm masters in terms of cultivation."
When the team leader heard this, he looked at Liu Jiuzhen very gratefully, but Liu Jiuzhen didn't care about his gratitude at all.
At this moment, Liu Jiuzhen suddenly stood up, his aura also suddenly changed faintly, and then he walked up like a step, saying: "I have finally recovered a little, let's go and take a look. Since that guy kidnapped all the stargazers, as long as he's not a madman, he should have an explanation."
He Yingrui had obviously been waiting for Liu Jiuzhen to recover before. He nodded and said: "The cultivation level of the man on top of the star observatory is not inferior to mine. Although there is a combined attack formation to help, Brother Liu still needs to be restrained from the side. rest assured!"
After that, He Yingrui signaled the leader of the team to take the guards of the first battalion to join in the pursuit of the fleeing warriors, and then joined hands with Liu Jiuzhen to close the distance to the top of the observatory.
…………
In Xingyuan City.
Although the Star Observation Deck is located quite far away from Xingyuan City, how could the mid-to-high-level warriors in Xingyuan City not sense such a huge commotion?
It's just that the Xingyuan Guards now exercise high-pressure management within Xingyuan City. Even if the local, permanent, or outside warriors stationed here find something, they don't dare to go out to investigate blatantly at this time.
In an ordinary house, Kou Chongxue was half-lying on a deck chair in the yard. He looked very leisurely on the surface, but the fingers of one hand were tapping on the table more and more frequently, which proved that he was not feeling well in his heart at this time. Not calm.
"Squeak——"
As the door opened and then closed, Kou Chongxue suddenly stood up from the recliner, looked at Feng Ziying who hurriedly walked in and said, "What's going on? What's wrong with the observatory?"
Feng Ziying poured twice the amount of herbal tea on the table directly into her stomach. She wiped her mouth without any image and said: "Something happened. The underground prison of the observatory was broken. All the warriors sealed inside were killed." They all escaped, and now the situation there has become a mess. He Yingrui has led six guards of the second battalion to rush to support. The other Xingyuan guards stay in the city and monitor anyone who moves in the city. They can kill them first and then report them. You, don't go out now. I'm leaving soon, and a few of my men in robes are still waiting for me outside."
Kou Chongxue said in a deep voice: "No, I need to go to the north to take a look. I think it's probably because that kid couldn't wait for us to contact him, so he did it by himself."
Feng Ziying directly stretched out her hand to block it and said: "You can't go! I suspect this is a trap. Xingyuan Guards probably took this opportunity to set up a dragnet, waiting to see if there are other lurking masters in Xingyuan City."
"That kid is now alone. Perhaps this is how he is notifying us to go for support!" Kou Chongxue said in a quick but slow tone.
Feng Ziying said in a deep voice: "The situation is not as bad as you think. Since He Yingrui personally took most of the guards of the second battalion there, this proves that that kid must have some intentions! I think it is better to wait at this time. Wait for more news to come back before you respond. Don’t worry, I will only pay more attention to that kid’s safety than you do!”
Seeing that Feng Ziying turned around and was about to leave, Kou Chongxue quickly stepped forward and handed him a Qiankun bag and a sixth-level martial talisman, saying: "These are the boy's things, as well as this 'Liuhe Shifting Talisman'. Once there is a chance, Just leave it to him. Since we can use the 'Liuhe Teleportation Talisman' to sneak into the Xingyuan Dojo, we can naturally use it to leave."
…………
Inside the observatory.
In fact, there is no need for Xiao Shengyi to say more. When Shang Xia saw these dozens of broken copper pages made of the same material as the "Star Gazing Album", he already realized the preciousness of these things.
Xiao Shengyi's extremely frustrated sigh not only once again proved Shang Xia's guess, but also seemed to reveal that there seemed to be differences between the stargazers inside the observatory.
Shang Xia unceremoniously took the dozens of copper pages on the stone platform into his pocket, and then slowly walked out of the secret room, looked at Xiao Shengyi and said, "Master Xiao, do you want to take a look at these copper volumes of the direct descendants of the Guantian Sect?" secretary?"
Xiao Shengyi's face showed obvious desire, but soon the expression on his face gradually faded away, and he asked in a strange tone: "You want to win me over?"
Shang Xia smiled and said: "Why, can't it be done? A fifth-level grand stargazer won't be treated as a distinguished guest there? What's more, I won't keep my core heritage secret like Xingyuan City."
Xiao Shengyi smiled bitterly, and then said expressionlessly: "It's a sincere way to win over, but unfortunately Xiao will not leave here unless you leave with Xiao's body!"
Shang Xia's eyes squinted slightly, his expression seemed to understand something, and he said: "It seems that Xingyuan City has some restrictive requirements for Master Xiao. It doesn't matter, I don't force others to do anything."
Xiao Shengyi's eyes flashed, but in the end he didn't say anything.
But Shang Xia's voice came from behind him again at this time: "I am about to leave. Isn't Master Xiao ready to give me a ride?"
Only then did Xiao Shengyi suddenly feel that the confinement in his body had melted away. Not only was he able to move, his cultivation level was also slowly recovering.
"You can't escape. I'm afraid the Star Observation Deck has been surrounded by Xingyuan Guards for a long time. Considering the importance of the Star Observation Deck to the dojo at this time, He Yingrui is probably outside, and those wearing robes are If people build a joint attack formation with her as the center, even a high-quality real person will not be an opponent."
Xiao Shengyi followed Shang Xia slowly, but did not make any small moves, because he knew very well that his life and death depended on the other person's thoughts.
"Just because the observatory is so important, they don't dare to break in now, right?"
Shang Xia looked back with a smile on his face, but his steps did not stop. He waited until he turned around and continued: "Actually, I have been thinking about whether it was the Xingyuan Dojo that escaped into the void first. , or did the seventh battalion leader Xing Xingtian leave first? If Xingyuan Dojo escaped into the void first, then how did Xing Xingtian leave from the dojo? But if Xing Xingtian left first and then the dojo escaped into the void, but In my opinion, it is not easy to hide the entire dojo in the void, right? Could the observatory be one of the important links? But if Xing Xingtian leaves first, then as a dojo, escaping into the void is an important part Who should be in charge of the central observatory?"
Having said this, Shang Xia looked back at the silent Xiao Shengyi with a half-smile again, and said: "Judging from the level of surprise that Master Xiao saw when he saw those broken copper pieces just now, it is obviously impossible to leave such an important matter to Master Xiao. ”
Xiao Shengyi said coldly: "Those are not scraps of copper, they are secret secretaries of the Guantian Sect!"
"Okay, Bronze Secretary!"
Shang Xia would not argue with Xiao Shengyi on this point, but continued the inference just now: "Since Xing Xingtian left the dojo after it disappeared into the void, it naturally proves that there is a connection inside the Xingyuan dojo that connects to the outside world. A secret passage, and if I guessed correctly, this outward passage should be inside the observatory, right?"
Shang Xia, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, and Xiao Shengyi noticed that the two of them had returned to the place where they had been attacked by Shang Xia before, while the remaining ten star masters were still lying on the ground unconscious.
Xiao Shengyi glanced at the people on the ground carefully, and then said: "As you guessed, since Xing Xingtian doesn't trust me, do you think he will inform me of such an important passage?"
Xiao Shengyi did not deny the existence of this external channel at the beginning, but instead told the reason why he did not know where this channel was, which seemed to further confirm the existence of this channel.
Shang Xia was about to say something else, but his spiritual perception suddenly seemed to capture something, and he couldn't help but look in the direction outside the observatory.
At this moment, a woman's voice slowly came in from outside: "I wonder if this fellow in the observatory can come out and meet me?"
Shang Xia glanced at Xiao Shengyi, smiled and said: "Sorry, since you are all ready to go, I think it is better to be more cautious, so I will chat with you here!"
Although Shang Xia concealed his appearance, changed his Qi as much as possible, and even changed his voice, who knew whether the other party would have any secret skills that could reveal his identity the moment they met?
At this time, Tongyou Academy and even Lingfeng Realm did not have the strength to compete with Xingyuan Land.
"It's fine," He Yingrui's voice came again. She didn't seem to be dissatisfied because of this, but asked calmly: "I wonder how the stargazers inside are doing now?"
