The Yaksha soldiers rushed into Pingchuan City in one go, quickly established a foothold, and continued to advance forward. The enemy was outnumbered and we were outnumbered. The defenders' defense line was rushed to pieces, divided and cannibalized, showing a one-sided situation. City Lord Hao Luo watched helplessly as his elite troops fell into a tight siege. He tried his best to resist, only causing a few small waves, and disappeared in the blink of an eye among the tide of enemy troops. His face showed a ferocious look, and the corners of his eyes twitched frequently, but he clenched his teeth tightly. He gritted his teeth and held on, but he still didn't use his winning hand.

Zhuo Ye watched and listened in all directions, feeling vaguely uneasy in her heart. She did not think that Hao Luo would hand over Pingchuan City and stand still, just waiting for a turn of events. However, she thought about it over and over again, but she never realized the turning point. The Mi family and his wife had been watched closely by the Imperial Guards, and the balance of victory and defeat was tilted to her side. It would only take a few moments to completely wipe out the defenders. By then, everything was done, except for Hao Luo. Abandoning the city and fleeing, there is no other way to go.

Just when she was doubtful, she suddenly heard the sound of a trebuchet in the distance. Seven or eight sharp-edged rocks were thrown into the air and fell from the sky. Zhuo Ye couldn't help but laugh. The trebuchet was a powerful siege weapon. The two sides were fighting close to each other, and their teeth were intertwined. , you are me and I am you, how powerful can a few stones be, and she is not defenseless, how can the monks holding the battle just sit idly by and ignore her!

Sure enough, the monks enshrined in the Yasha Kingdom showed their skills and put the rocks in the air one by one. Just as they were gently and deftly moving them aside, the rocks suddenly fell into pieces and scattered clouds of powder, which spread with the wind and gradually covered an area of ​​dozens of feet in radius. . Zhuo Ye didn't pay attention at first. He just thought it was the method of his own monks. He didn't want the battle situation to suddenly overturn.

The generals were staggering one by one, their bones were soft and their muscles were weak, and they could not lift their swords and guns. The Pingchuan City defenders took the opportunity to counterattack, just like chopping melons and vegetables, killing heads and leaving corpses everywhere.

Bixiazi said "Huh" and thought about it for a moment, and suddenly she felt like a mirror. The rocks thrown by the catapults contained poisonous powder. The defenders had already taken the antidote in advance and were not disturbed by it. They released the winning hand at the critical moment. , turn the tide before it falls. Hao Luo's deep intentions and ruthless methods were impressive. She just didn't know where the poisonous powder came from. It was so toxic that after inhaling a little it would turn into a puddle of mud. She subconsciously pulled Lang Jun's sleeves to signal him to retreat. One or two, so as not to harm the fish in the pond.

Shen Yuanqiong held her hand and whispered in her ear: "It doesn't matter, that's the medicinal powder of 'Epimedium'. It numbs the limbs and makes them sleepy. It is only effective for the people of the Yasha country..." His eyes flashed and he guessed. Zhang Chengyun has already arrived in the Rakshasa Kingdom and is most likely hiding in the royal capital to make suggestions for the royal family and to avenge the humiliation he suffered back then.

Bixiazi looked intently and saw that the people of the Yasha Kingdom were on an unstable footing, falling piece by piece like harvested wheat. The soldiers of the Seven Kingdoms, Long Man, Two-faced, Pierced Chest, Weary Fire, Long-Armed, Winged People, and Immortal, were sparsely scattered, looking at each other. He didn't know whether to go forward and fight, or to abandon his sword and gun and run away. She was deep in thought. Her husband seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious veil, surprising her from time to time. How did he know that "Epimedium" had such a strong effect?

The medicine powder was everywhere, and everyone was drunk. The defenders of Pingchuan City turned defeat into victory and massacred the Yasha people. Zhuo Ye held his breath, his face was extremely ugly, and his heart sank to the bottom of his heart. The monks of Yaksha Kingdom didn’t realize it

Frowning, he used Taoist magic to blow up a strong wind and sweep away the poisonous powder. However, the defeat was complete. The soldiers fell to the ground in a mess. Those who were dead were dead, and those who were not dead had numb hands and feet and could not get up. At the same time, the sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded outside Pingchuan City, and the sound of fighting was loud and soft. Zhuo Ye hurriedly turned his head and looked around, only to see a dark group of heavy armored cavalry charging towards his camp. Although there were not many people, they were strong and powerful. , unstoppable, and the most heinous thing is that before the fight, the other generation also punctured the paper bag, and a puff of poisonous powder blew into the camp with the wind, like a demon baring its teeth and claws.

Zhuo Ye's heart sank to the bottom, and he made a prompt decision to gather the remaining troops and evacuate Pingchuan City. Master Lu, the national advisor, saw this and was filled with emotion in his heart. The expedition of Yasha's national labor army had many twists and turns, and the coalition forces kicked the iron plate. Pingchuan City suffered a big loss. However, the Rakshasa Kingdom had already prepared for this non-war crime, as evidenced by the poisonous powder used against the Yaksha soldiers. Only with the efforts of a country can such a large number of them be prepared in advance. However, when the two countries were at war, the troops and siege forces were inferior. Only the monks could determine the final outcome. Master Lu weighed the pros and cons and finally decided to intervene. If he couldn't even capture the small city of Pingchuan, what shame would he have? Going to see Master again?

When hostility arose, Shen Yuanqiong felt the same. The sword marks on his right arm jumped slightly, and the "Yang Shen Sword" fell into his palm. The golden threads swam like dragons and snakes, appearing and disappearing. Master Lu's eyes fell on the divine sword, and his eyes suddenly felt stinging, and he was greatly surprised. This sword has a great history, no wonder it can kill Taoist Lazy Dragon's master and disciple. Greed arose spontaneously, and his big sleeves fluttered as he walked slowly. He stepped forward, huddled his hands in his sleeves, secretly worked the magic formula, and brewed up magical powers.

Shen Yuanqiongmi

He raised his eyes, and the "Yang Shen Sword" buzzed and trembled, making no secret of the murderous intention in his chest. The Huangquan Taoism was so overbearing, "Those who obey me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish." Master Lu only thought about it, and then the Shen Sword fiercely counterattacked. When the monks saw that the imperial master personally took action against Mi and his wife, they would not stand idly by. Hao Luo's heart skipped a beat, he stamped his feet, flew out, and ordered his soldiers to retreat. Qingjingzi sighed secretly when he saw this, and had to stand aside. If you can restrain one or two, you can save the next person, and you will live up to the good relationship between guest and host these years.

Shen Yuanqiong held the "Yang Shen Sword" tightly with his five fingers. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether it was a man wielding the sword or a man wielding the sword. His chest was full of heroic energy, and his figure suddenly disappeared. In a flash of sword light, he had killed a monk from the Yaksha Kingdom. The monk's body stood motionless, his head rolled to the ground, dumbfounded. He thought he had hidden far enough away, but he didn't expect that with a single blow from the sword cultivator, the world was so close, the path and path were separated by a thin line, and life and death were divided.

Master Lu's heart trembled, and a streak of yellow smoke flew out from his sleeves. It floated like a startling giant and was as powerful as a swimming dragon. It crossed the sky in an instant and pounced on Shen Yuanqiong's head. This magical power is called the "Yellow Dragon Capturing Hand". It can capture all tangible and intangible objects. If you practice it to a high level, even the gods can capture it with ease, without any resistance. Then, although the yellow smoke went away quickly, the sword escaped even faster. Shen Yuanqiong was enveloped by the "Yang Shen Sword", his body and sword merged into one, as fast as a stream of light, and he suddenly approached Jiumozi again.

Jiumozi's hair stood on end, and he hurriedly used the "Trapped Lock" in the hope that the opponent would throw a rat-proof weapon. Shen Yuanqiong did not want to hold back, and the golden light passed by, cutting the "Trapped Lock" into a ball of gorgeous fireworks. Jiumozi was so frightened that he had no choice but to resort to life-saving means. Suddenly, his left arm fell down to his shoulder level.

It exploded into a ball of blood mist, wrapped his body in it, and sank into the ground at the critical moment, narrowly escaping.
