Bounty Pavilion, rooftop.
You Fang's body had been moved away, and the three people in the building remained silent for a while.
In the end, it was Gu Yan who spoke first and said in a solemn voice: "When he was in Suzaku City, he once used the art of avatars, but the duration was still short, and there should be distance restrictions."
"In other words, his strength has improved greatly during this period?" Gu Tong asked, standing by the railing with his hands behind his back.
Gu Yan nodded lightly: "He was defeated by Gu Ci, who was in the late stage of transcending the world, but now he can tie with Chief Xiao. Even if his strength is enhanced by secret techniques, his original realm should have improved."
Xiao Gaofeng frowned slightly and did not explain.
Gu Tong looked condescendingly at the ruins that were being cleaned not far away, recalling the inexplicable and weird battle not long ago, and said coldly: "He is not as strong as Brother Xiao. He can cause this situation. He planned to use his clone to open up the situation from the beginning."
"He killed You Fang and took away the formation hub. This is all a matter of course." Gu Tong turned to look at Xiao Gaofeng and said in a deep voice: "What I care about is that he seemed to know our existence in advance and where we came from. Problem?"
Gu Tong obviously meant something, and Xiao Gaofeng said solemnly: "The news that I left the Western Mountain Realm cannot be concealed at all, but they will definitely not be faster than me from the moment they find out to rescue him."
Gu Tong frowned and said, "According to Brother Xiao's guess, someone from the Lin family will also come?"
Gu Yan raised his head and glanced at Gu Tong. Gu Tong's expression didn't change much, but he knew that Gu Tong was starting to worry.
Just like the Gu family doesn't care about the winner's feelings, the Lin family doesn't care about the Gu family's feelings sometimes. When both sides lose face, it depends on who has the bigger fist.
But now and in the future, the Gu family has no plans to meet the Lin family head-on.
Feeling the subtle atmosphere in the room, Xiao Gaofeng narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "This is just my guess. But some people in the Lin family actually think they are smart and always want to tease the tiger's beard, but forget that they are not capable of escaping from the tiger's mouth. ."@
Gu Tong smiled when he heard this, and the Lin family themselves were in chaos. This was the scene they expected, but when he thought of the young man in Juye City, his smile quickly faded and he frowned: "What will he do next?"
Xiao Gaofeng said: "With the formation pivot, he can indeed do a lot, but since he dares to go north, he won't stay here for too long."
Gu Tong nodded and said: "Although this boy is cunning, his weaknesses are also obvious. Is Brother Xiao planning to use the Northern Wilderness as a battlefield?"
Xiao Gaofeng shook his head and said: "I don't plan to go deep into the Northern Wilderness, so I still need the elders' help in this matter."
Gu Tong looked at Xiao Gaofeng, half-smiling but not smiling.
Xiao Gaofeng sighed inwardly, lowered his eyes and said: "Since it is the center of the formation forged by the Gu family, the elders must also have a way to determine his whereabouts. I plan to fight him quickly after he leaves the city. When the time comes, I also ask the elders to join me in the attack. .”
Gu Tong did not express his position immediately, but just said: "To kill a young junior, we need to work together. Although I don't pay much attention to the so-called reputation, doing so would be too high a view of the other person."
Xiao Gaofeng said: "People from the Lin family may appear at any time, and we may fall short."
Gu Tong looked at him without speaking.
Xiao Gaofeng's eyes flashed, and he suddenly realized that Gu Tong was supported by the Gu family, and he was the real loner. If he failed, he would be the only one who fell short in the end, and everyone else would live well.
Xiao Gaofeng said bitterly: "When this matter is over, Xiao is willing to join the Gu family and obey the elders' instructions."
Gu Tong smiled: "Brother Xiao, please don't worry, I will definitely help you kill this kid."
In an alleyway in the north of the city, Mu Qing suddenly felt something in his heart and stopped.
"Have I been discovered again?"
"Um."
Mu Qing touched somewhere in his arms and asked in the sea of consciousness: "Didn't you look at it for me? The connection with this thing has been severed?"
Meng Zhang's voice was unhurried and he said slowly: "This thing has been imbued with some kind of witchcraft. It is well hidden when not activated. There is still some inheritance from those savages who danced with great gods."
The corner of Mu Qing's mouth twitched, and he turned around and said, "Let's go separately. You leave first and wait for me at the edge of the first ruins."
Bai Zhi was already nervous when Mu Qing stopped suddenly. When she heard this, she immediately understood the current situation and asked worriedly: "Have we been discovered?"
Mu Qing shook his head and said: "It's not us, it's me. But I have a way, you go first."
Mu Qing looked at Lei Tongtian, who nodded quickly. He tightened the baggage around his body and said, "Please don't worry, young master, I will definitely protect the young lady."
Bai Zhi also knew that staying with Mu Qing would only drag him down, so she had no choice but to follow Lei Tongtian and leave first.
Mu Qing watched the two men blend into the crowd and leave the city gate without incident. He couldn't help but sigh that conquering Lei Tongtian, a local, had solved a lot of troubles for him, even though Juye City's defenses were completely different from those of Suzaku City. It's underground, but it's obviously much safer than Bai Zhi acting alone.
Mu Qing waited there for a while, but when he saw that no one was coming, he couldn't help but turn back south, towards the center of the city.
On the way, Mu Qing asked Meng Zhang: "My clones can be three hundred miles apart in the consciousness space for an hour. What about now?"
He could feel that the time not long ago was far from the limit.
Meng Zhang said: "If your consciousness is not damaged, then there is not much problem in the real world if you are two hundred miles apart and lasts for an hour. But now it is best not to exceed a hundred miles, and the duration cannot exceed half a hundred miles." An hour."
Mu Qing frowned and said, "It's too short."
Meng Zhang said: "What do you want to do?"
Mu Qing said in surprise: "You can't read it yourself?"
Meng Zhang was silent for a moment and said, "I didn't stop you from taking risks, so I don't intend to care about your thoughts."
Mu Qing was a little embarrassed. There were experts in Juye City, and he might be in danger. In fact, it was all reminded by Meng Zhang. However, he did not completely follow the other party's advice and leave Juye City, but planned to fight back.
"You know...it would be best if you could get rid of one."
Meng Zhang snorted coldly: "You are no longer taking risks, but you are overestimating your capabilities."
Mu Qing thought to himself that you also have emotions, and said: "I know that I can't defeat that old guy from the Gu family for the time being, so now I just want to find something to do in order not to be too bored."
"Can you help shield the breath?"
Meng Zhang didn't respond, but Mu Qing felt that the purple light under his skin had become much more solid.
The aura around him was in harmony with heaven and earth, and seemed extremely harmonious. He sighed without hesitation: "So this secret technique can be used like this..."
In the Bounty Pavilion, Xiao Gaofeng looked at the sun gradually moving westward, frowned and asked, "He hasn't moved since morning?"
Gu Tong said: "This is normal. The clone is usually condensed by spiritual consciousness and blood essence. He destroyed a clone, so he should be seriously injured."
Xiao Gaofeng always felt that something was wrong, and he wanted to find out, but he didn't want to take the risk alone, so he hesitated and said, "We can't wait any longer."
Gu Tong looked at him and said, "Brother Xiao, are you planning to take action now?"
Xiao Gaofeng did not respond immediately, but said: "Since this man knows the secret technique of clone, is it possible that he has noticed the difference in the center of the formation and used the same trick to induce us to go?"
Gu Tong chuckled softly, shook his head and said: "I found out after I got the array hub that an ancient sacrificial witchcraft was burned into the array hub. This level of witchcraft is impossible for anyone except the elders of the Presbyterian Church to come into contact with. The possibility of discovery.”
"But your worries are unfounded. This boy's secret skills are indeed extraordinary. If we continue to besiege and kill him in the city, we may give him a chance to slip through the net again."
Xiao Gaofeng frowned: "So we have to find a way to force him to leave Juye City."
Gu Tong smiled calmly: "This is easy to handle."
On the street near Bounty Pavilion, people stood in front of a sign and talked about it.
Mu Qing stood behind the crowd and easily saw what the notice said - new ruins were discovered deep in the northern wilderness, and a black storm appeared.
The black storm arises and disappears out of thin air. For so many years, people in Juye City have long heard that it is a strong wind generated from inside the space rift. Where it appears, there must be a broken space exposed in the sky and earth.
In many stories of brave men, these spaces often represent huge opportunities, and ruins are the most obvious one.
Now, after a hundred years, another ruins has appeared, causing a huge uproar.
Loose cultivators who were already treasure hunters gathered the expedition team in front of the crowd. For those who still planned to wait and see, a treasure hunter advised: "Although there is a black storm, there is a truth that has been passed down by us treasure hunters for a long time."
"The black storm that appears at the same time as the ruins is much more stable and will not suck people into the chaotic space cracks. If we don't cherish this opportunity and wait until the repair space of heaven and earth is closed, let alone the ruins, the black storm will not be seen."
As soon as these words came out, some monks who were naturally eager for excitement were aroused.
These people are born gamblers. They know very well that they probably won't gain much, but when they think about seeing the black storm, it is not dangerous, and they can talk about it openly when drinking with others in the future. I felt it was not a loss.
But Mu Qing was thinking of something else and asked Meng Zhang: "Is the black storm next to the ruins still the same black storm?"
"Of course not." Meng Zhang said: "The composition of the black storm is very complicated. It is far from just a composition of the space Gangfeng. It contains broken magic weapons and the residual power of the secret techniques. Generally speaking, Transformation Mortal can barely resist a period of time. time."
Mu Qing's heart sank, and Meng Zhang said slowly: "There is not much hope in this matter. You can only hope that the girl is like the protagonist in these stories passed down, and is sucked into a relatively stable broken space. , or a relic.”
When Meng Zhang said this, he paused and said, "But I have to remind you that this is probably specially prepared for you."
Mu Qing frowned slightly. The Gu family took root in the Northern Wasteland and explored the wasteland far more than other families. Maybe this ruins has been explored, or maybe this is simply a show that the Bounty Pavilion asked these bounty hunters to play. .
But Mu Qing didn't care and asked, "If we enter from this black storm, can we explore other places?"
Meng Zhang was silent for a long time this time. Just when Mu Qing gave up hope, he said: "Others can't do it, but maybe you can really do it. After all, you have suffered a thunderstorm and your body has changed, but even if it's me, I will help you with all my strength, but life or death is still uncertain.”
Mu Qing rarely heard a trace of expectation in Meng Zhang's words, reacted and asked: "What changes have happened to my body?"
Meng Zhang said slowly: "You are originally an innate wood source body, and you have been tempered by various powers. You are transforming into a chaotic body. Inside the black storm is the realm of absolute spirits, and the power in it may help you. Accelerate this transformation.”
"I just want to save people," Mu Qing said.
He looked away from the notice board, looked up at the Bounty Pavilion not far away, and said, "It's disrespectful to come and not return. I plan to give them a gift before leaving."
