A startling light lit up from Lan Gu's back, instantly piercing through his body, and someone he never expected took action.
"Lan Ji!? You..."
Lan Gu's eyes widened and he looked at the clan brother behind him in disbelief. The ancient starry sky mirror that enveloped them finally stopped running, and all his strength began to disappear rapidly.
He never thought that this clan brother who had followed him for hundreds of years would betray him, and at such a critical moment, he would hit his vital point with a single blow.
Zhang Xiaoman was also stunned by what happened in front of him. Lan Ji, who always seemed to be honest and careless, turned out to be the mastermind behind the scenes. It seemed that everything that happened in the Lan family base had nothing to do with him. .
"Why...why..."
Lan Gu's speech had become intermittent at this time. A terrifying black hole bloomed in his chest, and his flesh and blood were being swallowed by the black hole. Lan Ji, who was standing behind him, had a purple star pattern on his forehead. The black hole It's obviously his star pattern talent.
"Clan leader... no, I should call you eldest brother. This is probably the last time I will call you eldest brother... Hehehe, I never thought that you, who always think highly of yourself, would have such an embarrassing day, hehehe..."
A cold smile appeared on Lan Ji's face, and he increased his strength on his hands, which made Lan Gu miserable.
"Brother, do you know how long I have been waiting for this day? Ever since you killed Xiaoyu seven hundred years ago, I have wanted to cut you into pieces! That is your biological sister! Just for the sake of the head of the Lan family In this position, you killed her! Do you think I am really stupid? You actually left me by your side, but how do you know how important Sister Xiaoyu is to me!!"
Lan Ji started to become a little crazy as he talked, and finally he laughed and cried at the same time, and his eyes had turned red.
When Lan Gu saw his eyes, his face suddenly turned pale and he said:
"You... you have become a member of the Rothschild family... I didn't expect... that I trust you so much... but you..."
Lan Ji burst out laughing, as if he was crazy.
"Trust? Hahaha! You just treat me as a fool who has no scheming and will not pose a threat to you! Let me tell you, Lan Gu, I, Lan Ji, have been dead since the day you killed Xiaoyu ! The one alive is just a walking corpse looking for a chance to take revenge! If I can let you die, I don’t mind joining any force!"
"How do you think they discovered the location of the Lan family? Why do you think such a well-defended base was breached so easily? Hahaha! You can only blame yourself! You shouldn't have left me like this in the first place. A living person! You should kill all your brothers! It was you who taught me! Lan Gu! It was you who taught me to use all means when facing the enemy! Now, I will give all this back to you! Let you Also taste the feeling of being betrayed by someone you trust!"
Lan Gu looked gloomy, half-kneeling on the ancient mirror, and the black hole in his chest was almost cutting him off.
"Lan Ji, you don't know the situation at all... Xiaoyu was willing to be killed by me to protect you. The person who wanted to kill you was actually someone else, your second brother. The situation at that time was special. I If you don’t do this, none of you will survive..."
"You are still as naive as before... Do you really think that a guy like Armand will let you go back alive... Take this ancient mirror and run away with it, it may still be able to save you..."
Lan Gu's voice became smaller and smaller, until finally it was completely lifeless.
His body was completely swallowed by the black hole, and the huge ancient starry sky mirror under his feet also disappeared, and instead a small black mirror floated where he just stood.
Lan Ji looked at this scene stupidly, the ferocious expression on his face had solidified. He just stared at the small black mirror in front of him, silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
Zhang Xiaoman suddenly ate such a shocking thing, and he felt mixed emotions for a moment. He didn't expect that the patriarch of the Lan family would die like this, or he was killed by a sneak attack by his own people. Listening to their conversation, there seemed to be a person behind it. What an incredible story.
He shook his head, but these have nothing to do with him. The current situation is a bit complicated. Lan Gu, the clan leader, is dead, and most of the Lan family's base has been basically destroyed. Almost all the senior officials have been killed or injured. Zhang Xiaoman begins I was thinking about whether I should continue to stay. It seemed that the situation had reached this level and I no longer had the need to stay.
"Lan Ji, give me the Xingluo Mirror."
Armand stretched out his hand towards Lan Ji and asked for the mirror in his hand.
"You did a good job this time. After you go, I will summon all the elders in the clan and make you an elder of my Rothschild clan. This is what you deserve. Now, give me the Xingluo Mirror first. "
He once asked to speak out.
At this time, Lan Ji had gradually recovered from his trance. Looking at the small black mirror lying quietly in his palm, what Lan Gu had just said to him suddenly came to his mind.
"Sister Xiaoyu...did she really die to protect me...What on earth is going on...Why did Lan Gu not blow up the mirror himself but give it to me...Is it possible that he said that?" It's all true...I...I will..."
Lan Ji froze in place with a blank expression, and made no movement for a long time.
Seeing this, Armand on the other side began to become a little impatient, and urged again:
"Lan Ji, don't let me say it for the fourth time. Give me the Xingluo Mirror. I think you won't believe what that old guy Lan Gu said. Don't you know what kind of person he is? In the end, he Everything I said is a lie to you! The purpose is to sow discord between us. How can you believe him? Don’t forget that the blood of our Rothschild family is already flowing in your body! We are ourselves people!"
Lan Ji was startled when he heard this, and then said firmly:
"Yes, Armand, you are right, he lied to me. How could a selfish person like him think about me? He just wanted to sow discord! How could I believe him so easily!! "
Lan Ji found a reason for himself, and then flew towards Armand without hesitation, handing the small black mirror into his hand.
"Hahahaha! Xingluo Baojing! I finally got it! This time the operation was finally successful! Lan Gu, Lan Gu, I didn't expect that you were so smart and confused all your life. Your great cause and so many elite members of your Lan family were all destroyed in the end. It’s so ironic that a fool was fooled, hahahaha!”
Armand looked carefully at the small black mirror in his hand and couldn't help laughing wildly. His eyes that glanced at Lan Ji were also full of joking.
"You...what did you say!?"
No matter how naive Lan Ji was, he understood the meaning of the other party's words at this time. Things really developed in the worst direction. What Lan Gulin said before his death turned out to be true!
Armand's eyes flashed with red light, he stared at Lan Ji coldly, and said:
"Your brother is a hero. Although we are rivals, I respect him very much, but you? You are just a trash who can even betray your own relatives. Do you think a trash like you is worthy of joining our Rothschilds?" The De family?"
"Lan Ji, your brother is right. You are so naive. If you had just escaped with the Xingluo Mirror, you might have had a chance of survival... But now, it's too late!"
As he spoke, he took action in shock, and a surging bloody light lit up in his palm, instantly hitting Lan Ji who had no time to react.
"puff!"
Lan Ji was hit by this blow and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backwards.
The strange thing was that his body in mid-air was suddenly fixed there again. From the frightened expression on his face, it could be seen that all this did not seem to be of his own will.
"Damn it...Armand! You liar! What on earth did you do to me!?"
Armand sneered.
"Am I a liar? You, a traitor, dare to call me a liar! Hahaha! Lan Ji! Don't forget, the blood of our Rothschild family is flowing in your body! As a Rothschild, How can the people of the De family resist me, the patriarch?"
Zhang Xiaoman sighed secretly, knowing that this guy was finished. Armand's attack just now should be a medium, guiding and injecting some kind of power into the opponent's body, thus activating certain attributes hidden in his blood. It is precisely because This attribute caused Lan Ji to lose control of his body.
"No...impossible...it can't be like this...None of this is true...Armand! You said it! As long as I help you, you will accept me..."
"Haha! Lan Ji! You are really naive! Do you think we will really accept an outsider like you? Do you think that because you have our Rothschild blood in your body, you are a member of our Rothschild family? ? Don’t be stupid! No one else will know what happened here today! To be on the safe side, please die!"
The bloody light in Armand's hand lit up, and he gently squeezed his fist in the direction of Lan Ji. The latter immediately screamed and was crushed into a twisted shape of flesh and blood, and it was difficult to see its original appearance clearly.
"So, now that you've finished watching the show, it's time for you, the honorary elder of the Lan family, to say a few words in person?"
Armand looked at Zhang Xiaoman with a smile on his face.
"Oh? What do you want me to say?"
Zhang Xiaoman said calmly.
"What are you talking about? Haha, of course, let's talk about the benefits the Lan family has given you. Anyway, you are just the honorary elder of the Lan family. Why should you risk your life for the Lan family? Now that Lan Gudu is dead, you have no reason to continue fighting. Go down, why not join our Rothschild family? With your strength, you will definitely have a place in our Rothschild family."
Hearing what he said, Zhang Xiaoman smiled slightly disdainfully and said:
"Oh? Did you also say the same thing when you deceived Lan Ji? Are you sure that I, like him, will believe your lies?"
Armand's eyes suddenly turned cold and he said:
"Then if you say that, you don't plan to live?"
"Stay alive? Do you think you can kill me?"
Armand suddenly seemed to have heard some super funny joke and burst into laughter. He glanced at the strong men present, then looked at Zhang Xiaoman and said:
"Jiuxing, do you think you are really at the extraordinary level? I know you are very strong, but in front of such a large number of masters from my Rothschild family, do you really think you have a chance of winning?"
Zhang Xiaoman, on the other hand, was too lazy to talk nonsense to him anymore, so he put on a fighting stance and said:
"Come on, let's try it."
Seeing him speaking so easily, Armand suddenly became angry and his face became colder.
"Okay! In this case, I will let you be buried with the Lan family! Form a formation!"
He said and gave an order, and all the masters of the Rothschild family formed an attack formation and attacked in the direction of Zhang Xiaoman.
Despite Armand's arrogance, he had no intention of looking down on Zhang Xiaoman.
After all, the being who caused the Purple Charm Sect to react to it was probably just as strong as Lan Gu Lai. Fortunately, he estimated that this guy was just a casual cultivator, and he probably didn't have anything like the Starry Sky Ancient Mirror in his hand. He is a treasure, so with so many people on his side joining forces, he is not afraid of not being able to take him down.
"Whoosh!"
Zhang Xiaoman's figure flashed and disappeared in front of everyone. When he reappeared, he was already tens of thousands of meters away.
"What a speed!"
Armand was shocked when he saw this. Among the foreigners who could use dark speed to this extent, he had also seen it in Lan Gu.
As for whether this was the ability to teleport, he didn't think about it at all, because everyone knew that no one in this ruins could use teleportation.
"Hmph, don't think you can escape because of your speed! Playing with speed in front of my Rothschild family! You are simply asking for humiliation!"
Armand snorted coldly, without any intention of giving up. His whole body turned into a streak of blood, and he immediately chased after him.
At the same time, the Rothschild family disciples who had formed a formation also turned into blood. Their speed was not much slower, and they all followed suit.
Zhang Xiaoman looked back, and he was quite surprised by this scene. If the Rothschild family said that masters are very fast, there is nothing to say, but the speed of every family member is so fast. Come on, this is a bit unbelievable to him.
"The techniques they practice should be based on speed, and their application of dark speed is very advanced. No wonder they have the confidence to keep me here. If it is a speed competition, I will definitely not be their opponent..."
Zhang Xiaoman thought to himself, but he didn't have any panic, because for him, there was no such thing as being restricted from teleportation. As long as he wanted to leave, he could do it at any time.
"Since you are so persistent, then I will take you to a place..."
An idea suddenly popped up in his mind.
"I just hope you guys can hold on there."
