Nearly ten miles away from Luofengpo, there is a short hill.
Two old men stood on the top of the hill.
After a long period of silence, an old man broke the silence.
"Master Prime Minister, in your opinion, which side has a greater chance of winning in this game?" Zhi Ge asked with a smile while twirling his beard.
Wang Daofan shook his head and said, "You are a true gentleman watching chess without speaking. How come the holy monk Zhi Ge doesn't even understand this?"
After a moment, Wang Daofan continued, "But I can understand the mood of Saint Monk Zhi Ge. After all, the Human Emperor Sword was released in your hand, and the source of all kinds of cause and effect is with you."
Zhi Ge paused at the prayer beads he had been holding in his hand, and frowned slightly, "What you said, Prime Minister, is wrong. I remember that you single-handedly supported the second prince in driving the eldest prince out of Chang'an."
Both of them were silent for a while.
"Sage Zhi Ge came down the mountain this time, so many years of hard work have been wasted." Wang Daofan narrowed his eyes and said, "It's not easy after so many years."
"Haha, Prime Minister, you are joking." Zhi Ge sighed, "It doesn't matter if it is burned to the ground. As long as it can illuminate my way forward and clear up the confusion in my heart, it is enough."
Wang Daofan laughed loudly when he heard this, "Sage Zhi Ge is indeed a man of great perseverance. I really admire him for his courage."
"However, I have something to ask, and I would like to ask the Prime Minister to clarify my doubts."
Zhige stared at Wang Daofan. The two looked at each other for a moment, and then Wang Daofan said, "Qingcheng Mountain is not under my control, so I don't know anything about them."
"But the eldest prince is under your control. You exiled him. If something happens, you are also responsible."
Wang Daofan thought for a moment, nodded and said, "That's true."
"I believe you can also see that his royal destiny has been taken away, so he is destined not to become the Human Emperor."
"So I didn't place a bet on him, I was just a spectator." Wang Daofan said with a smile, "As for the Fourth Prince, I don't think there is any need to waste time on him. He can't be here for a few days anyway."
"Is it because of Zhou Ruoxiao?" Zhi Ge asked.
Wang Daofan took a deep look at Zhi Ge and said, "Isn't it because of him that you went down the mountain?"
Zhige was speechless and turned to say, "That talisman is not something that ordinary disciples and elders of Qingcheng Mountain can produce."
Wang Daofan narrowed his eyes and said, "I think it should be the leader of Qingcheng Mountain who saw the dragon but never saw its end."
"I heard that didn't that man go to Chang'an?" Zhi Ge asked doubtfully, "Is it possible that he dared to attack the eldest prince in Chang'an?"
"Haha, that's not the case. Speaking of which, I'm still surprised." Wang Daofan said with a smile, "This contemporary head of Qingcheng Mountain is really a bodhisattva. He obviously tried to take away the eldest prince's royal luck, but he still chose him. Leave so many means to protect him."
"Perhaps I also want to keep a good relationship. When the eldest prince knows all this one day, it will be easier to accept it. After all, if there hadn't been that cyan barrier just now, I'm afraid he would have died." Zhige said solemnly.
"Sage Zhi Ge has seen clearly, but if you take away the luck of the royal family, you may not be able to ascend the throne..." Wang Daofan chuckled, "As for the leader of Qingcheng Mountain, I have met him. A few days ago, he was indeed in Chang'an, and some time ago, I asked him to tell me my life."
Zhige was slightly surprised, "Oh, really? What did you calculate?"
Wang Daofan smiled and shook his head, "The secret must not be leaked. Since the holy monk Zhi Ge has come down the mountain, why not go and see him yourself?"
"That's okay. I'll ask the Prime Minister to recommend it to me then."
"With great pleasure."
A bolt of lightning quickly flashed across the sky, and the figures of the two old men appeared at one moment and then hidden in the darkness at the next.
At the same time, Luofengpo.
Zhou Ruoxiao was firmly trapped by a formation at this time.
Zhou Ruoxiao was tied up with countless chains. Zhou Ruoxiao frantically used his inner strength to break free, but he couldn't break free.
The ancient demon walked unsteadily in front of Kezhou Ruoxiao.
"I'm sorry, Lord Zhou, it seems that your condition is not very good. You may not be able to enter Chang'an today."
Zhou Ruoxiao just gave him a cold look and said nothing.
When Gu Yao saw this, he just snorted coldly, then walked straight to Zhou Ruoxiao, raised his hand and snatched the Human Emperor Sword from his hand.
"This is a good sword, tsk tsk tsk!" The ancient demon looked up and down at the Human Emperor Sword, his eyes constantly radiating admiration.
At this time, Jiang Fengqing also struggled to stand up and walked a few steps to the ancient demon. He glanced at Zhou Ruoxiao who was being restrained and said, "Get rid of him as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams!"
The ancient demon seemed not to have heard Jiang Fengqing's words, and was still looking at the Human Emperor Sword in his hand, stroking the sword body up and down with his hairy hands.
Jiang Fengqing had been enduring the pain all over her body, but when she saw that the ancient demon didn't respond, when she was about to speak to urge him again, the ancient demon said, "The prince has so many tricks this week. Now he has integrated all his inner strength into it." He is trapped in this formation. If we attack him now, if one of his actions is bad and the formation is destroyed later, then he will be released."
Jiang Fengqing frowned when he heard this, with a look of hesitation on his face, "Then how long can this formation trap him?"
The ancient demon's eyes roamed Zhou Ruoxiao's body, as if a wild beast was sizing up its prey, and he slowly said, "He won't be able to escape for at least a quarter of an hour."
Jiang Fengqing breathed a long sigh of relief, "That's good. I also ask you and Boss Lin to go and deal with Luo Qing and Jiang Xianfeng."
The ancient demon turned his head and glanced at Jiang Fengqing, his scarlet eyes filled with a terrifying aura.
However, Jiang Fengqing remained calm and looked straight at the ancient demon.
Then the ancient demon slowly walked towards Luo Qing in the distance.
When passing by Jiang Fengqing, Jiang Fengqing suddenly raised her hand to stop the ancient demon.
"This is the Human Emperor Sword, not the Demon Emperor Sword. If you have seen enough, please return it to me quickly."
The ancient demon only hesitated for a moment before throwing the Human Emperor Sword to him.
Jiang Fengqing raised her hand to catch it, but her eyes remained on Gu Yao's face.
Seeing that the ancient demon was still expressionless, Jiang Fengqing seemed to have something in her eyes.
Gu Yao walked towards Luo Qing together with Lin Tianyou who was always behind him.
Jiang Fengqing sat cross-legged, put the Human Emperor Sword on her knees, and then looked up at Zhou Ruoxiao.
"I won this round."
Zhou Ruoxiao didn't say anything in the formation. Now he is deeply trapped in the formation. Just like Gu Yao said, it will be really difficult for him to get rid of this formation for a while.
The situation is now very clear. Only Luo Qing is left with fighting ability, but she still has to face an ancient demon whose strength is unfathomable, and Lin Tianyou, whose details are still unclear.
Gu Yao and Lin Tianyou walked side by side and slowly walked towards Luo Qing.
Halfway there, Gu Yao suddenly said, "Boss Lin, how much do you think the Human Emperor Sword weighs?"
Lin Tianyou paused and looked sideways at it. Two flames in his eyes quickly grew stronger, "What are you talking about?"
The ancient demon paused and said slowly, "It is said that the Human Emperor's Sword weighs ten kilograms and eight taels, but I don't know if it is true."
Lin Tianyou suddenly took action, grabbed the ancient demon's throat, and lifted it up.
"I don't want to know how heavy it is, but now I suddenly want to know how it feels to drink with your golden dog and monkey demon."
Lin Tianyou's hands were not very strong, at least for the ancient demon, he could break free easily.
However, the ancient demon did not do this.
Although it had lost most of its strength when it first came out of the gambling stone, it was no match for Lin Tianyou at that time, and Lin Tianyou did have the strength to kill it at that time.
But now its strength has been restored to some extent, but it is still a little uncertain what Lin Tianyou has in his hands, so that he can be confident and not afraid of betrayal.
So just now it has been testing Lin Tianyou's bottom line, and even hinted Lin Tianyou to compete with Jiang Fengqing for the Human Emperor Sword.
Because looking at Lin Tianyou's current state, it has made him doubt whether Lin Tianyou has the strength to suppress him.
Lin Tianyou pinched the ancient demon's neck with one hand, but his whole body was trembling, and his elbow joints kept creaking.
The ancient demon looked at Lin Tianyou calmly, but no matter how it looked, it could not see anything from Lin Tianyou's face without any flesh and blood.
After a moment, Lin Tianyou suddenly threw the ancient demon out.
The ancient demon showed no intention of resisting and let him throw him in front of Luo Qing.
However, after throwing the ancient demon out, Lin Tianyou fell heavily to the ground.
Gu Yao's guess was not wrong at all. Lin Tianyou was at the end of his strength at this time, and his body was constantly changing between the original flesh body and the skeleton.
Such a terrifying scene immediately filled Jiang Xianfeng, who was hiding in Luo Qing's arms, with fear.
He never expected that a person could turn into a skeleton and be able to change back and forth.
The ancient demon patted the dust on his body, and it seemed that nothing happened, with a calm expression on his face.
But at this time, Li Siguang on the side suddenly got angry, raised his fist and hit the ancient demon on the head.
"It is our duty as warriors to kill evil spirits and demons!"
The ancient demon glanced at him and said scornfully, "Are you worthy of killing me?"
After saying that, Gu Yao's eyes flashed fiercely, and he suddenly grabbed Li Siguang's chest with his claws.
The sharp claws penetrated deeply into the chest of the ancient demon, and then slashed hard. Li Siguang lost his strength in an instant, and his momentum stopped.
Gu Yao coughed lightly and spat directly onto Li Siguang's face.
"Is that all there is?" the ancient demon sneered.
Li Siguang suffered such humiliation, and one can imagine the anger in his heart. He had the intention to kill the ancient demon in front of him, but he could clearly feel that the power of his body was continuously draining from his chest, and an almost The overwhelming fatigue was pulling him into a bottomless abyss.
The luster in Li Siguang's eyes was constantly dimming, and his originally tense body continued to relax, and then he was thrown to Luo Qing by the ancient demon like garbage.
Jiang Xianfeng in Luo Qing's arms was shocked. He quickly raised his hands to hold his head, and then got into Luo Qing's arms.
Luo Qing's eyes also flashed, and his inner energy turned into a barrier to protect himself and Jiang Xianfeng.
The next moment, Li Siguang's cold corpse exploded in the air like a watermelon, blurry limb fragments splashed everywhere, and blood washed over the inner force barrier, as if dyeing the barrier red.
After a moment, Jiang Xianfeng raised his head carefully, wanting to take a look at the situation outside, but Luo Qing quickly covered his eyes.
But Jiang Xianfeng still saw a bright red patch, as well as the broken hands, broken feet, and broken internal organs...
