At this moment, the sky seemed to be two different worlds from the ground, and the noise and shouts of death were all removed.
Mu Qing finally understood the meaning of Cao Jin's words and asked in a dry voice: "So, as long as Bai Hao destroys the Nether Flame Formation, he can easily obtain enough blood."
Cao Jin listened to the chaotic voices on the ground and nodded subconsciously: "These people don't know why until they die. If you really get what Bai Hao wants, then the Nether Flame Formation will be completely destroyed. I’m afraid that’s what Bai Hao wants.”
Mu Qing shifted his gaze and looked in the direction of Yanfufang. Cao Jin raised his eyebrows and said softly: "Destroying the White Pagoda Temple will only stop the spread of the Nether Flame Array. As for how to completely destroy the Nether Flame Array, I am afraid only Bai Hao knows. "
As Mu Qing closed his eyes and opened them again, the thoughts in his mind gradually became clear. He looked at Bai Hu and said, "We still need to contact Ge Shan or Xing Fei and ask them to evacuate these people from the inner city."
Bai Hu frowned slightly and said, "Chen Zhuo and you are more suitable than me for this matter."
Only then did he have time to ask the first question: "Where is Qinglong? And Murong Xiuming..."
"Qinglong was trapped in the Yehuo Formation by Bai Hao and was handed over to me. As for Murong Xiuming, I handed him over to Hengyu."
Mu Qing was a little helpless. As the fire curtain stopped completely and stopped spreading around, Qinglong and Hengyu were both inside the fire curtain. The situation might not be much better.
Just when he was a little shaken, thinking that Bai Hu would not act on his suggestion, Bai Hu took the initiative and said: "I will go find them. As for whether they believe it or not, I don't care."
After saying that, Bai Hu glanced at Mu Qing and Cao Jin and headed straight towards the White Pagoda Temple. Mu Qing's face softened slightly and he looked at Cao Jin who was looking at him with some uncontrollable expectation. He said with an eyebrow: "The Nether Flame Formation has the effect of suppressing the fire veins in the center of the earth. It has been stable for so many years. Bai Hao wants to destroy such a large formation. It is absolutely impossible to do it easily. Is there anything else you want to say?"
Cao Jin's white eyebrows moved slightly, and he thought for a moment and said: "He has been setting up various formations in the inner city for more than ten years. I am afraid that something will happen that day. Unless a master of formations appears at this moment, even if he knows Bai Hao’s intentions can’t stop him.”
What Cao Jin said now was the complete truth. Ever since he came to Suzaku City, the more he learned about Bai Hao's secrets, the more he felt that Bai Hao's character was deep and unpredictable. What he knew about him The secret is just the tip of the iceberg.
Especially after Bai Hao was tied to a boat and proposed the blood sacrifice formation, Bai Hao still did not completely trust him. Even when he encountered some problems and had to go to him, there were several things that were wrong when setting up the formation. that excludes him from the core.
It was obviously something I took out, but now except when I come to you when I need you, I exclude you at other times.
Bai Hao's distrust of Cao Jin made Cao Jin express a lot of resentment. This was actually an important reason why Ge Shan was able to persuade Cao Jin to have more thoughts.
When Cao Jin was talking to Mu Qing, as soon as he thought that this scene had completely fallen into Bai Hao's sight, he became more determined to get rid of Bai Hao, and even proactively suggested: "Cultivation is always about fighting. Great opportunities often come with great risks. If you want to achieve the Shura body through the blood sacrifice formation, the chance of success is not high. Even if he is lucky enough to have enough blood, as long as his own blood source is damaged, it will be greatly reduced. His odds of success.”
Mu Qing's frown gradually loosened, and he suddenly thought of a question. He looked at Cao Jin and asked, "Did Geshan know the news about the blood sacrifice formation from you? Are the five death places in the outer city useful to the overall situation?"
Naturally, Cao Jin would not say it was useless at this moment, nor would he say that he was trying to sway left and right, diverting the Hidden Valley masters so that both sides could lose. He looked at Mu Qing seriously and said: "Historically, success Only Wuzong's incident happened, and only Bai Hao could reach this point."
Seeing Mu Qing nod slightly, Cao Jin coughed lightly and reminded, "What about the method of breathing?"
Mu Qing looked at him in silence, while Cao Jing's face turned extremely ugly as she breathed. In the next moment, she felt a strong suction coming from the palm of Mu Qing's hand that was always on his shoulder.
Less than 50% of the luck power in his body quickly disappeared again.
"Boy! You don't keep your word!"
After Bai Hu left, Cao Jin had thought about this possibility. With a face full of resentment, he silently recited the mantra in his heart to forcefully reverse the power of luck in his body and fight Mu Qing to the death. Mu Qing suddenly moved away again. She put the hand on his shoulder and said with a smile: "It's just enough to refine another purple energy. Don't worry, I won't break my promise to you."
"It's just that you first pray that Bai Hao dies in my hands."
Mu Qing's lingering voice had not disappeared, but his whole body had turned into a stream of cyan light and rushed straight into the fire curtain, leaving Cao Jin in the air with a helpless expression.
…
Baita Temple, the highest point of the ruins.
The fire curtain in the distance finally stopped when it was about to reach Yongningfang. Xing Fei took off his helmet and let out a long breath. He looked around at the tired soldiers staggering and said with a smile: "It's useful. The Nether Flame Array has stopped." Come down."
Xing Fei looked at the hundreds of people who had arrived a quarter of an hour ago and said with a smile: "The hasty plan was wrong. If you hadn't rushed the resources, I'm afraid even if the fire stopped, it would have swept to Yongningfang."
The general he was looking at smiled and opened his mouth, but did not dare to say anything. Someone next to him immediately pushed him to the front of the crowd.
When Xing Fei saw this posture, he had a vague realization in his heart, and the smile on his face became lighter. Wherever he looked around, both generals and soldiers immediately stood up straight, but the more so, the more solemn Xing Fei's face became. , said: "Have you decided yet?"
"Brother..."
Those who did not address Xing Fei as commander were naturally his sworn brothers. When he saw these people standing together with the general who had made a great contribution, he said with a sad look: "Now that the chaos in the inner city is getting worse, you guys can Are you considering this?"
The general did not dare to look directly at Xing Fei. His big calloused hands tightly grasped the handle of the knife at his waist. He seemed to have gained the confidence to question Xing Fei and said in a deep voice: "City Lord, no, who is this evil thief Bai Hao?" We don’t treat our brothers as human beings, and if Ge Er Ge hadn’t revealed everything to Xiong Lao San in advance, I’m afraid those 100,000 city defense troops would have turned into ashes long ago, right? Can we still sacrifice our lives for such people?”
Xing Fei looked at this man and said softly: "Lao Wu, you were involved in escorting those people out of the city a while ago, so you should know that I no longer regard him as my master. There is no need to say anything more at this time."
Lao Wu took a step further and said in a deep voice: "I know, so what I want to ask is, does the eldest brother plan to be the city lord?"
Xing Fei raised his eyebrows, standing on the top of the ruins with his tall body, and glanced at the thousands of soldiers below with cold eyes, giving people a very fierce and powerful aura.
This also made the soldiers who heard what Lao Wu said clearly excited and started talking among themselves. Obviously, if Xing Fei can be the city lord after the chaos, it will not only mean that those who support him will have further hope. Except for opportunities, no one needs to worry about being liquidated because of what happened today.
Because Xing Fei's character has already been recognized in the past together, and he is worthy of their following and trust.
After Luo Kailiang, the only deputy commander who was independent of the sworn camp, was completely convinced, if Xing Fei could be the city lord, I am afraid that no one in the personal guard would raise any objection.
When Xing Fei and Ge Shan were talking all night long, they had thought about who would be the city lord after Bai Hao, but neither he nor Ge Shan thought they could do it, so the topic was shelved.
Xing Fei also knew that at this time when the situation was chaotic and uneasy everywhere, if he expressed his intention to become the city lord to the soldiers, it would probably have a miraculous effect on gathering the chaotic hearts of the army, and the entire army would be more able to direct them. .
But his character prevented him from deceiving the brother who had been with him day and night for so long. He looked at Lao Wu and said: "I..."
Suddenly, a figure fell from the sky, landed directly on top of the ruins, and landed next to Xing Fei.
"Protect brother!"
Lao Wu faced Xing Fei directly, and as soon as he felt the unparalleled momentum, he drew out the sword from his waist, and with a breath, he rushed to the top of the ruins and struck at the man.
However, Lao Wu, who was in the fourth level of cultivation, at this moment showed a speed that exceeded the limit of his own strength, but he was extremely slow in front of others.
Only two crisp bangs were heard, and the sword light splashed down like white snow broke into two pieces and shot into the ruins, and Lao Wu was pressed between his eyebrows by an extremely cold scabbard. In the face of the all-pervasive Qi machine lock, it is difficult to move at all.
The scene was silent for a moment. The soldiers around the ruins who were about to rush forward had their weapons waving hands frozen in mid-air, because they saw that while Lao Wu was being held up by a snow-white scabbard, their commander Xing Fei, There was a long sword full of spirit shining brightly on his shoulder.
"White Tiger?"
Xing Fei, who looked a little pale and tired, glanced at the white scabbard beside him with the corner of his eye, and asked softly.
After he revealed his identity, Bai Hu pushed Lao Wu back under the ruins with a little force, sheathed his sword, looked at Xing Fei, with a trace of appreciation in his eyes and said: "Don't rush to think about that position. If you send out all these people running around like headless flies in the inner city, they will all be very grateful to you."
Xing Fei saw Lao Wu returning to the soldiers and quietly forming a formation. He shook his head to signal them to quiet down, and said with a smile: "If a master of the extraordinary late stage really wants to kill me, I can't stand here and talk."
Even when he told the soldiers below, he was also asking about Bai Hu's purpose.
Bai Hu pointed at the stopped fire screen and said solemnly: "Your city lord has betrayed everyone. He wants to gain enough blood energy by destroying the Nether Flame Array."
Xing Fei knew a lot about what Bai Hao had done, and was about to nod when he suddenly understood the key to Bai Hu's words, and repeated doubtfully: "Destruction?"
Bai Hu didn't intend to waste time here, and nodded: "The Nether Flame Array is the key to suppressing the underground fire veins. After the Nether Flame Array is completely destroyed, the magma will erupt, and the 300,000 people in the inner city will be killed and injured countless times. You only have to do it now." Just one thing needs to be done.”
"hiss--"
When Bai Hu spoke, he deliberately used the pronunciation of Zhenqi, so all the guardsmen present could clearly hear the meaning of his words. For a time, the entire ruins of the White Pagoda Temple were filled with gasps.
