After the old man Jinlong made such a move, everyone on the field suddenly became quiet. No one dared to offend an extraordinary strong man at this time. Even Lan Yue and the elders of the Rothschild family who were looking at each other and were about to make a move also calmed down. I put aside the turmoil in my heart and waited obediently for the door of plague to close.
Time slowly came to an end as everyone watched nervously. The entrance to the ruins can usually last for two years, but the specific time will fluctuate slightly, so Lan Yue and others are also very nervous now, for fear of what will happen next. The entrance to the second ruins will be closed.
While waiting silently, suddenly a light flashed through the entrance of the ruins, and a figure appeared inside.
Everyone was shocked. When they saw the identity of the figure clearly, the faces of the Rothschild family immediately showed a hint of joy.
It's their clan leader! Armand!
Before these people's smiles could fully bloom, they solidified on their faces again.
Just because their clan leader's current appearance is so miserable, with only half of his body left, and his whole person is even more boring, looking like he has drained out all his energy and blood.
"What's going on? How could this happen!? Why is the clan leader the only one coming out? Where are the others!?"
On the Rothschild family side, some elders showed expressions of astonishment.
It was very different from what they imagined. Not only was Armand seriously injured, but he was the only one who came back. Everyone waited for a long time and did not see anyone else behind them. There was an unavoidable uproar for a while.
"He's coming! He's coming! Let me pass quickly! Let me pass!"
His expression was ferocious and crazy, and combined with his current miserable appearance, the disciples closest to him felt terrified when they saw it.
However, the entrance to the ruins was protected by a restriction connected by the Purple Charm Gate, and he had no way to leave its range.
No matter how much Armand rushed, he could only be trapped inside. Others were also curious, who was he in his mouth? He was able to force a peak control level expert to do this.
On the Rothschild family side, an elder pushed a shackled man into the Purple Charm Gate. When Armand saw this, he rushed forward and bit the man's neck. , sucking all the essence and blood out of his body.
People from other families frowned secretly when they saw this. This man with a vast body was the blood slave of the Rothschild family, specially used to heal these people after they were injured.
With the nourishment of foreign substances, Armand finally began to recover from his injuries. Half of his body, which had been damaged, returned to normal, and his shriveled flesh and blood became plump again. This time, he finally looked like a human being, at least on the outside. Looks so ferocious again.
Now that he wants to leave here, he still needs to pass the test at the Purple Charm Gate to confirm that he does not carry the plague virus.
At this moment, the light at the entrance to the ruins flashed again, and another figure appeared.
When Armand in front saw this figure, he immediately jumped three feet high and looked like he was about to rush out.
The visitor was naturally Zhang Xiaoman.
"Pole Star!?"
Among the Lan family's lineup, Lan Yue's face was obviously happy after seeing him, but her expression was like a replica of the previous Rothschild family. She was happy at first, and then slowly turned into Bewildered and stunned.
The reason is simple, because only Zhang Xiaoman came out of the Lan family this time.
"Pole Star! What happened to the Langu Patriarch and the others inside?"
Zhang Xiaoman was asked this question as soon as he came out, and naturally he had expected it. He shook his head helplessly, looked at Armand aside, and told the truth in one breath:
"Everyone in the Lan family expedition team has fallen victim to the evil hands of the Rothschild family."
As he spoke, he waved his hand and threw out a jade soul that recorded information about the original battlefield. This contained the evidence he had collected earlier. The jade soul went straight through the Purple Charm Gate and fell into Lan Yue's hands. .
"This is……"
Lan Yue sank her mind into it, and after just a brief inspection, her expression changed drastically, and she immediately stared at Armand who came out.
Several other elders of the Lan family also took over the jade soul and examined it. After reading it, they were all shocked and angry.
"Armand! You bastard! How dare you come out!"
"Rothschild family! I, Lan Qi, swear to fight you until death!"
"
"You bastard! How dare you carry out such a sneak attack! I will kill you today to avenge the dead clan leader!
"
"..."
The Lan family was furious for a moment. Looking at the expressions on their faces, they felt like they were about to rush forward and tear the Rothschilds to pieces.
Armand's face was also dejected at this time. He knew very well what would happen if this matter was exposed. The people of the Lan family would definitely fight to the death with him. Although the two sides had already had a close relationship, but If the people of the Lan family ignore them and start a war with them here, it will obviously be very detrimental to their family, because there are many other forces around them who are eyeing them. In the end, even if they win, it will definitely be a tragic victory. I am afraid it will be a disastrous victory. People from other forces reaped the benefits.
Fortunately, although the people of the Lan family are extremely angry at this moment, they have not lost their minds. The lesson learned by Elder Na Ming of the Yuan Xin tribe just now is still fresh in their minds. No one would choose this time to offend several extraordinary powerful men. Anyway, it won’t be long before the gate to the ruins is completely closed. By then, when this exploration operation is over, they can naturally take action against the Rothschild family.
In the same way, Zhang Xiaoman did not attack Armand since he chased him out. He still knew the rules. During the exploration of the ruins, everyone present was prohibited from attacking each other.
Armand has also regained some sense at this moment. He has recovered from the horror of the previous death threat. He knows that it is impossible for the pole star here to do something to him. Even if he is also an extraordinary strong man, he must be It is impossible to deal with the four sages in the sky at the same time.
However, there was an incident when leaving the Purple Charm Gate restriction. Zhang Xiaoman passed normally, but Armand was detected to be carrying the plague and could only be trapped in it for a while, unable to leave.
He glanced hatefully in the direction of Zhang Xiaoman and knew that the reason why he was infected with the plague must be because the opponent used poisonous mist to sneak attack him near the exit of the ruins just now.
The plague of the God of Plague is quite powerful. That is to say, Armand is a master at the peak control level, so he does not show any symptoms now. If he comes out and enters the crowd, then those ordinary people will be infected after being infected. , I’m afraid it will be difficult to survive.
Therefore, everyone entering and leaving the ruins must be tested, no matter who they are. Although Armand is the leader of the clan, he can only be trapped in the restriction and cannot take half a step forward.
He tried to use the spiritual power in his body to force the poison of the plague out, but the poisonous mist that Zhang Xiaoman brought out in the end came from the underground of the Plague Temple. It would not be wrong to say that it was the strongest poison in the entire temple. However, it is not so easy to remove. Until other explorers came out one after another, the plague poison in his body was still not cleaned out, so that everyone outside the Purple Charm Gate looked at him in unison. , everyone’s eyes were all focused on him.
"Hmph! It's embarrassing! Come back here quickly!"
On the periphery, at the Rothschild family's fleet, an old and rather cold voice came over, and then a stream of light quickly passed through such a long distance, and in an instant it flew to the front of the Purple Charm Gate. It's a bright red pill.
Above the platform, the old man in purple suddenly opened his eyes, and he controlled the Purple Charm Gate.
His consciousness quickly swept over the bright red elixir, and immediately did not stop it, allowing it to pass through the Purple Charm Gate and fall into Armand's hands.
Armand took the elixir with an expression of fear and surprise on his face. He first bowed in the direction of his clan's fleet and shouted "Thank you, ancestor, for giving me the elixir!" before taking the bright red elixir. After taking it, he started refining it.
The effect of this bright red elixir was extraordinary. This time, it only took him ten breaths of time to refine it to remove all the toxins in his body. When he passed through the Purple Charm Gate again, nothing happened.
As he left, the entrance to the ruins at the back was finally completely closed. Regardless of whether there were still people inside, no one could come out. I'm afraid they would be refined by the poisonous mist inside in a short time. , completely disappeared into it.
Seeing that the ruins were closed, everyone present stopped waiting. They all knew that the companions who stayed inside and failed to come out were in danger this time. Many people began to pack up their things and return to the outer fleet.
In fact, more or less of our clansmen have been left behind, so this is the reason why most people have not left until now. They are all waiting for those clansmen to come out with the last glimmer of hope.
Of course, among so many forces, there are also many people who have gained a lot. In order to avoid other people's messages and possible trouble later, these people simply gave up and waited for that group of people to leave first.
Zhang Xiaoman was about to return to the Lan family's team, but unexpectedly one of the elders suddenly took a step forward, pointed at him and shouted:
"Ji Xing! You are also the honorary elder of my Lan family. Why is it that even the head of my Lan family died in the ruins, but you are safe and sound, not even injured at all? How do you explain it!?"
The elder's sudden shouts of questioning made everyone present subconsciously look over.
Zhang Xiaoman was stunned when he was asked. He did not expect that the other party would suddenly attack, but he quickly reacted, looked at the elder named Lan Qi, and said calmly:
"Since Elder Lan has said that I am an honorary elder, I naturally have no obligation to work hard for your Lan family."
The people around me nodded subconsciously when they heard this, thinking that what he said made sense.
Everyone knows what an honorary elder is. To put it bluntly, they are a kind of guest. They can be used to support the appearance on weekdays, but if they are expected to work hard for the family, it is a bit too much.
"Lan Qi..."
Lan Yue gently pulled the elder's sleeve, as if she wanted to warn him not to say this here.
However, Lan Qi suddenly pulled up his sleeves, stared at Zhang Xiaoman, and sneered:
"I'm afraid it's not just that. You keep saying that Lan Ji betrayed the family and that a sneak attack at a critical moment led to the life and death of the clan leader, but this is just your one-sided statement!"
"Lan Ji is the elder of my Lan family and the younger brother of the Lan Gu clan leader. The interests of the Lan family are his interests. What reason does he have to betray the family?"
"Besides, he has always obeyed the patriarch's words. I have reason to believe whoever you say betrayed me, but it is absolutely impossible for Lan Ji alone! If you tell me, I am afraid that all this is a story directed and acted by you. The real man behind the scenes and the betrayal. It should be you!"
"And your real purpose...if I'm not wrong, you tried your best to sneak into the Lan family and gain the trust of the Langu clan leader. The purpose is to get the Xingluo Mirror, the most important treasure of my Lan family! I ask you, do you dare to take it? In front of everyone here, open your space device and let us see if the Xingluo Mirror is in your hand!?"
Lan Qi's questions were like a machine gun, spitting out a series of questions. Not to mention Zhang Xiaoman himself, who was the person involved, even the onlookers from other families couldn't help feeling a little stunned at this time.
Lan Yue, who originally supported him, now looked at him with a hint of doubt.
"What a logical genius..."
Zhang Xiaoman sighed secretly in his heart, feeling that if he put on a bow tie, a pair of glasses, and pointed his index finger at the tip of his nose, it would look like an aged detective.
He really didn't expect that the Lan family had such a No. 1 talent in their lineup. Thinking about it carefully, the other party's speculation seemed reasonable. Although he had brought some evidence back from the battlefield before, it could only show that the Rothschild family He had a fight with the Lan family, but it didn't prove his innocence.
The most important thing is that it is absolutely impossible for Zhang Xiaoman to open his own space device, because the broken Xingluo Mirror is really in his hand!
Seeing that he didn't dare to respond, everyone in the Lan family looked at him with more and more suspicion.
On the other side, Armand of the Rothschild family also had a strange expression on his face after seeing this dramatic scene. Then he couldn't help but his eyes lit up slightly, and he spoke to add insult to injury.
"I can prove that this guy is indeed a traitor! I was still wondering why that old guy Lan Gu's Xingluo Mirror suddenly failed, and then he was seriously injured. It turned out to be his fault!"
