"Demon God Body" is an extremely rare physique from the legendary demon fairy clan originating from the upper realm.

People with "demon body" are often physically strong and capable of carrying cauldrons. When the bloodline is fully activated, it can even become invulnerable and can regenerate severed limbs.

Since Dahuang's cultivation system focuses on refining yin energy and strengthening true energy, there are very few methods that specifically target the physical body. Before the monks become saints, their physical fitness is basically the same as that of ordinary people.

There are even some people who are even weaker than ordinary people because they have been eroded by evil spirits all year round.

Things are rare and valuable.

In an environment where monks generally valued the true essence and ignored the physical body, Shi Xiaohan's "demon body" undoubtedly attracted the attention of the Ghost King of Mangshan.

As a serious "collector", it has been committed to turning practitioners with different talents and proficiency in different spells into its own "ghost attendants" - sword cultivators, sword cultivators, stick cultivators, Gu cultivators... have all been included by it In the bag, the only thing missing is someone with strong physical strength.

Therefore, when Xiaohan appeared in its field of vision, it kept sending Hu Yun to keep an eye on her.

Since Shi Xiaohan's bloodline was still in a dormant state and her power had not yet been revealed, she also asked Hu Yun to teach her sword skills and let her practice basic moves over and over again every day until she was exhausted, in order to activate the potential in her body. ——Her terrifying appetite, which is increasing day by day, is a manifestation of the gradual awakening of the "demon body" bloodline.

According to the Mangshan Ghost King's original idea, after the "Tianlong Formation" was destroyed and Luojing City fell into chaos, Hu Yun could bring her into the formation and make her his new minion.

Unfortunately--

Thinking that his plan was ruined by Gu Xu and Zhao Yan, Mangshan Ghost King couldn't help but gnashed his teeth in anger.

It thought it was merciful and spared these two young men who were still young, but it didn't expect that they broke the space restriction in the royal family's inner treasury, appeared in Renfang in Luojing, destroyed the transformation array, and brought Hu Yun Beaten to the point of dying.

Then Xu Man, the master of Jiange Pavilion, suddenly arrived, cutting off the connection between it and Hu Yun.

It can be said that if you steal a chicken, you will lose a lot of rice. If you lose your wife, you will lose the army.

"I promised Zhao Changying and Luo Chuan not to do anything to you this time," it thought angrily, "but I won't be merciful when I meet you next time."

…………

In Luojing City.

Gu Xu followed Wang Guanyu, the commander of the imperial guards, and walked along the wide Tianjie in the direction of Zichen Palace.

Monks wearing silver armor and holding swords surrounded him, exuding a majestic and solemn aura.

Gu Xu was not wearing shackles.

But when the silver-armored monks all pointed their weapons at him, he felt an immense pressure - not only did his true energy seal, he was unable to cast any spells, and he could not escape from the idle clouds. He took out any items and restricted his movements within a certain range. He was unable to escape in other directions and could only follow Commander Wang to the imperial city.

Gu Xu knew that this was the "Liuhe Immortal Formation" specially used to deal with practitioners - it relied on the power of the "Tianlong Formation" and could only be used by the Imperial Guard monks in Luojing City with the emperor's authorization. Show it off.

But somehow, perhaps because of his higher rank, he realized that his "time" and "world" were not blocked by the "Liuhe Immortal Formation". If he wanted to, he could still use it.

Of course, Gu Xu did not act rashly.

Because he knew that once he chose to break the formation and escape, he would be completely on the opposite side of the Qi court, and there would be no room for maneuver.

Daqi occupies the vastest and richest territory of the wilderness

Earth has rich cultivation resources, a large number of practitioners and powerful military power.

If they become enemies, not only will the subsequent path of cultivation become confusing due to the loss of resource support, but it will also be difficult to find a place in the entire wilderness.

If possible, Gu Xu still wants to try to resolve the misunderstanding and clear the grievances.

"Master Wang, can I ask," Gu Xu asked Wang Guanyu as he walked, "on what charge did the emperor order my arrest?"

"Treason," Wang Guanyu replied coldly, "colluding with ghosts and intending to commit rebellion."

"But Mr. Wang, since the ghosts broke into the city, I have been doing my best to kill demons." Gu Xu showed an innocent expression. "Not only did I get rid of the Mangshan Ghost King lurking in the capital, Hu Yun, Wu Danggui and others became "Ghost Attendants" and killed dozens of "Wandering Souls" and "Wild Ghost" level ghosts.

“Master Xu of the Jiange Pavilion can vouch for me.

"If I really are an accomplice of the ghost, then if I do this, wouldn't I be backstabbing my teammates?"

Wang Guanyu remained silent and ignored him.

But Gu Xu could sense that Commander Wang's mood was definitely not as calm as it seemed. .

So he continued: "Master Wang, do you know who reported me to the emperor? Does he have conclusive evidence?

"I'm very worried that the Emperor has been deceived by some people with evil intentions——"

"——No one reported you," Wang Guanyu turned his head and looked at him with some irritation and said, "This is the first order issued by the emperor in the Qianyang Palace after finishing his retreat."

"In other words, there is actually no evidence for this matter?" Gu Xu narrowed his eyes slightly.

Wang Guanyu thought for a long time and replied: "Maybe there is one at the emperor's place."

Hearing his words, Gu Xu instantly understood: It turned out that the charge against me was an "unfounded" charge; it turned out that there was no "treason" at all, it was just that Emperor Tianxing wanted me to die.

He deeply realized that feudal dynasties under the rule of imperial power, especially feudal dynasties where the monarch himself had extremely strong personal strength, were often governed by the rule of man rather than the rule of law.

When the emperor wants to punish a person's crime, he does not need to base it on facts and use the law as the criterion.

Rather, it all depends on the emperor's golden mouth and jade, and the power of life and death is unpredictable.

Gu Xu didn't know how he offended Emperor Tianxing.

But since the emperor wanted to punish him for no reason, the huge Daqi Dynasty no longer had a place for him.

Unknowingly, he thought of the desolate scene in Luzhai in Qingzhou, the four words "Be careful of Tianxing" written by Kong Xuan Sanren, and the mother of Zhao Yan, Mrs. Qu, who was assassinated in the capital...

It's better to run away than wait for death.

He nodded to Commander Wang and stopped talking.

At this moment, his eyes turned into a deep indigo blue.

All the sounds in Luojing City, people's voices, sobs, shouts, the sound of horse hooves, footsteps, the sound of metal collision, and the sound of wheels running over the bluestone pavement, were all dragged out for a long time, and the rhythm became more and more intense. Slowly, and then gradually return to silence.

The dust floating in the air was frozen in the sunlight, shining faintly.

The front legs of the silver-armored monks were hanging in the air, and before Commander Wang could even turn his head back... then they all became motionless like sculptures.

The power of "time" is activated. _&
