The high priest of the Demon Sect and the mountain chief have a solo battle. This is definitely the battle of the century.

The key is that Zhao Xun and the Chang'an soldiers and civilians were unable to see this grand scene, and they felt somewhat regretful.

When everyone's attention was focused on the mountain chief and the high priest of the Demon Sect, no one noticed a swaying figure from the northern barbarians flashing past.

This man is the sword master of Dongyue Sword Pavilion, Wei Wuji, who claims to be the second best sword master in the world.

When Wei Wuji saw the mountain chief being led away by the High Priest of the Demon Sect, he felt murderous for a moment.

With his strength, it is impossible for the destroyed formation in Chang'an City to stop him.

So he should make full use of this time difference to make a big fuss.

If he could sneak into the palace, he would be at least 50% sure of taking the dog emperor's head.

Of course, Wei Wuji was still very careful...

Because now in Chang'an City, in addition to the mountain chief, there are two super cultivators.

The first one is Yuan Tiangang, the imperial eunuch of Zhengda Zhou, and the second one is Zheng Jie, the internal eunuch.

Although the absolute strength of these two people is inferior to him, if they join forces, Wei Wuji will naturally not be their opponent.

As a result, as long as Wei Wuji makes a mistake, he may not be able to get out of Chang'an City.

Therefore, Wei Wuji will definitely not take action rashly. He will treat himself as an assassin and remain in a state of stealth until he is sure of victory.

Wei Wuji is so cautious, which is definitely not good news for Zhao Xun and others.

You must know that Wei Wuji is a super master. If he made up his mind to hide his whereabouts, it would be impossible for anyone except Shan Chang and Yuan Tiangang, who are powerful at the same level, to detect him.

The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. This does not make people feel comfortable.

Wei Wuji was indeed observing secretly.

He was like a predator in the night, lurking as much as possible.

Wait until the opportunity arises, then suddenly appear and kill with one strike.

For him, this is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

He must firmly hold the opportunity in his own hands.

Dog Emperor, today is your memorial day.

Wei Wuji decided to take the head of Emperor Xianlong from his neck to pay homage to his dead relatives.

After making sure that Yuan Tiangang was not on the city wall, Wei Wuji transformed into a short flying sword and entered Chang'an City without anyone noticing.

No one at the top of Chang'an City, including Zhao Xun, would have thought that Wei Wuji had entered Chang'an City in such a way.

This is too hidden.

Moreover, another advantage of transforming into a sword is that it can avoid the long restrictions in Chang'an City and is not easily discovered.

This is crucial.

Because there is an early warning mechanism in Chang'an.

The talisman array is the most obvious early warning.

Once there is an obvious aura fluctuation, the talisman array will have an obvious reaction.

Then the practicing masters in Chang'an City will sense it immediately.

This can definitely be considered a big killer.

The most obvious changes in aura are those of top experts. Of course, top experts have ways to hide their aura.

Wei Wuji, for example, can avoid being sensed by the huge talisman array in Chang'an City by transforming into a sword.

Wei Wuji walked slowly on Zhuque Street after entering Chang'an City.

Now the attention of Chang'an's military and civilians are focused on the city head, and almost all troops are concentrated on every corner of the four-sided city wall.

As for the people, they were hiding in their homes and shivering. No one dared to move around at this time.

When encountering a military disaster, the best way is to hide in the dark, so as to avoid being hurt to the greatest extent.

Of course, this also has a premise.

That means the other party has no intention of destroying the city.

If the other party has a revengeful mentality, once the city is breached, it will inevitably face a disastrous end.

Of course Wei Wuji would not hurt innocent people.

It's not that he doesn't want to, it's that he is disdainful.

In his opinion, it is too meaningless for a martial arts master, a strong man who is the best among all the heroes, to hurt unarmed people.

Since we want to fight, we should go to the palace.

He knew that there must be an old eunuch of the same level as him waiting for him there.

Continuing along Zhuque Street, Wei Wuji arrived at the border of the imperial city before long.

The difference between the Imperial City and the Waiguo City is that the Imperial City is the seat of the imperial government.

Waiguocheng is generally a residential area, and in addition to ordinary people, there are also dignitaries.

In comparison, the imperial city's restrictions are more obvious and stronger.

Under the blessing of this kind of restriction, it is difficult for practitioners below the third level to use their fists and kicks.

Wei Wuji is of course an exception.

Because he is a super master, invincible in the world.

He calls himself the second best in the world. On the one hand, he is humble, and on the other hand, he is worried about the guy who is the mountain leader.

Sometimes Wei Wuji even doubted whether the mountain chief was a human being.

Of course, this was not a curse word, but he suspected that the mountain leader was actually a projection of God in the human world.

Because Shan Zhang performed too perfectly in every aspect.

Every action, every stage of practice, and even every disciple he accepted seemed to have been carefully calculated.

This made Wei Wuji feel a little unbelievable.

If all this is true, how do you explain it?

This seems more like the way of heaven than the way of humanity.

Wei Wuji felt it was unusual.

"Perhaps I can solve this mystery today."

Wei Wuji's trip to Chang'an was of great significance.

It was not just as simple as assassinating Emperor Xianlong, the dog emperor, but he also wanted to see what was so magical about the city of Chang'an.

Why is it that there are so many cities in the world and only this city is protected by the talisman array?

Why is this city the only one with a population of over one million?

Why can only this city have so many people?

Why only this city can enjoy so much praise.

Why can’t East Vietnam do it?

Why can’t Bashu Kingdom work?

Why can’t the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions work?

Why can't Japan do it?

Wei Wuji felt puzzled.

Gradually, he came to the gate of the imperial city and crossed the restriction with just one step.

The forbidden magic power of the Imperial City is indeed much stronger than that of the Waiguo City.

Under this situation, even Wei Wuji's body appeared a little strange.

This is perfectly normal.

The reason why practitioners are different from ordinary people is that they can use their bodies as a container to communicate with heaven and earth.

The communication style of most practitioners is peaceful.

But there are also some practitioners whose communication methods are simple and crude.

This group of practitioners is the Demon Sect.

The practitioners of the Demon Sect forcibly sucked the vitality of heaven and earth into their bodies.

For practitioners of the Demon Sect, what they have to do is not to communicate with heaven and earth, but to do their best to inject and inhale all the vitality of heaven and earth into their own bodies.

If they were a container themselves, then the container would expand rapidly, and their strength would also increase dramatically.

But there is a problem. Containers always have limits, and Demon Sect practitioners are no exception.

What to do when this container is full?

What to do when this container can no longer expand?

It seemed that there was only one option left, and that was to explode.

The moment a container bursts, it means many things.

The vitality of heaven and earth in the body of a demon sect practitioner will return to the world of heaven and earth again.

It's like completing a cycle.

This is more or less a mockery.

Just like herbivores eat grass, carnivores eat herbivores, and the bodies of carnivores after death decompose into nutrients to nourish the grassland, and are eaten by herbivores.

This is a cycle.

Of course Wei Wuji was not a practitioner of the Demon Sect, and he would not choose such a simple and crude method.

Therefore, the Fu Zhen's perception of his arrival is not that strong, and the resistance is not that strong.

Wei Wuji felt that there were countless golden hairsprings around him.

These hairsprings weave into an extremely fine network, and Wei Wuji can clearly feel the existence of this network.

But he was not afraid at all and walked through it.

The golden hairspring was cutting in front of him like a knife.

But Wei Wuji felt no pain.

This is the power of a super master.

Even the golden hairspring filled with talismans still cannot cause harm to them.

Not even a small wound will appear.

Wei Wuji stepped into the gate of the imperial city as if there was no one around.

This was not because the guards of the imperial city were negligent in their duties, but because Wei Wuji was too fast.

It's so fast that it can't be distinguished by the naked eye.

Wei Wuji entered the imperial city unnoticed and walked quickly on the bluestone paved road.

He looked at everything around him, everything seemed so familiar.

Wei Wuji felt very emotional.

Ten years later, he came back here again.

Prior to this, Wei Wuji had entered Chang'an City twice, entered the palace city twice, and had the opportunity to face Emperor Xianlong twice.

He had two opportunities to kill his enemies with his own hands, but he missed them both.

Wei Wuji felt very disappointed.

Maybe he didn't have enough determination at the time, maybe he didn't have enough strength at the time.

In short, he missed the opportunity.

Now that ten years have passed, Wei Wuji is no longer the same Wei Wuji he used to be.

If Wei Wuji was just a rising star back then, now Wei Wuji is already one of the top three strong men in the world.

He calls himself the second best in the world because he only obeys the mountain chief.

In addition to the mountain chief, even Yuan Tiangang, the high priest of the Demon Sect, and the King Kong from the Western Regions have the power to fight.

Wei Wuji even vaguely felt that he could steadily defeat them.

But none of that matters right now.

Because Wei Wuji knew exactly what he was doing today.

He's not here to fight, he's here to kill.

Zheng Jie, the chamberlain supervisor, clearly felt a strong murderous intention.

This murderous intention came from outside the palace, getting closer and closer, getting closer and closer

This murderous intention is extremely strong and comes with incomparable resentment.

Zheng Jie knew exactly who this person was.

He had fought against this person before.

But that was ten years ago.

Ten years is really too long, long enough for a lot of things to happen.

Ten years can make a rising star in martial arts grow up and turn him into an extremely powerful person.

Of course, ten years can also cause a slight decline in the realm of a super-grade grandmaster with age.

Zheng Jie is old, but Wei Wuji is stronger.

Over time, the strength of both sides has changed significantly.

"Wei Wuji is here. Very good. We can have a good fight today. I have rarely encountered such a capable opponent in these years. If the fight is not fun, it is better not to fight at all."

For Zheng Jie, this is the best opportunity for him, an opportunity to prove that his sword is still young.

Of course, for Zheng Jielai, protecting Emperor Xianlong is his most important task at the moment. As for the so-called battle of bravery and ruthlessness, it is not that important, at least not as important as imagined.

He suddenly flew up and jumped to the eaves of the main hall, overlooking the Daming Palace.

From the commanding heights, he could observe all the details in the Daming Palace.

Whenever there is any trouble, he will be able to detect it immediately.

Even Wei Wuji is no exception.

The power of practitioners lies in the fact that they can always feel the strangeness immediately, even the smallest details cannot escape their perception.

Wei Wuji is here.

He easily passed through the restrictions of the outer city of Chang'an, he easily passed through the restrictions of the imperial city, and he easily passed through the restrictions of the palace city.

These three restrictions had no effect on him.

So when Wei Wuji appeared in front of Zheng Jie, the old eunuch felt very unbelievable.

"How can this be."

"Why isn't it possible?"

"This doesn't make sense."

"There are too many things in this world that are not in line with common sense. There is nothing strange about it."

Wei Wuji sneered and said, "After so many years, you still haven't changed. You are still so disciplined."

Zheng Jie smiled bitterly and said, "In a place like the palace, it's hard not to follow the rules."

Wei Wuji snorted and said, "This is why I don't like the imperial palace. There are too many rules in the imperial palace, which makes me sick. I prefer the Jianghu because the Jianghu is free and there are not so many so-called bullshit rules."

"You're unreasonable."

"I, Wei Wuji, have never spoken about truth. I have never spoken about it before, I will not speak about it now, and I will never speak about it in the future."

Wei Wuji said very domineeringly.

In his opinion, the so-called battle is not as simple as wielding a sword or wielding a stick.

When masters compete with each other, sometimes one move can determine the outcome.

This is not limited to so-called martial arts. A look or a laugh can sometimes directly determine success or failure.

So Wei Wuji was very careful.

Because he knew that the old eunuch in front of him must not be underestimated.

Even though his mouth was full of disdain, he was still very vigilant in his heart.

"Zheng Jie, Zheng Jie, your mistake is that you put your hope in others. Do you think everything will be fine if you persuade the mountain chief to go to war? Haven't you ever thought about what you would do if the mountain chief is lured away?"

Wei Wuji paused and said: "Now the mountain chief is fighting fiercely with the high priest of the Demon Sect. It is impossible for this battle to be completed in a short time. I guess it is not impossible for the two sides to fight until the sky is dark. In this case, you will be decided. You must face me alone."

"There is also Supervisor Qin Tian here."

Zheng Jie said calmly.
