Chapter 630: All Good Thoughts
The fire flickered in the distance, and the atmosphere in the golden palace suddenly became tense.
The Zishan Palace, which is responsible for guarding the teleportation array, has lost contact.
If it were normal times, Su Xiu might have wondered whether the people over there were negligent in their duties.
But at this critical juncture, no one would think the problem is so simple.
So, is there someone coming from there? "Who has been in charge of guarding the Purple Mountain Hall these days?"
After exchanging a glance with Yan Huanwen, Su Xiu asked the maid beside her in a deep voice, "Have they sent back any news before?"
"Replying to the king, it is Lord Lei Hu and his people."
The maid answered truthfully: "According to your order, they have sent back messages every day, except today."
"Um?"
Su Xiu's brows furrowed instantly and her tone turned cold.
"Why didn't you report this to me?!"
"This slave deserves to die!"
The maid trembled and knelt on the ground, trembling: "I saw you were discussing matters with Prince Jue, so I thought I would wait a while..."
"Humph! You really are thinking about the king!"
Su Xiu snorted coldly, her face as if covered with frost.
She glanced at the maid who was kneeling on the ground and trembling, and scolded loudly:
"Why don't you go check what happened to Zishan Palace?!"
"Yes, yes, I'll go right away!"
The maid climbed up from the ground using her hands and feet and quickly disappeared into the golden palace.
It was not until this time that Yan Huanwen frowned and asked:
"How many guards are there in Zishan Palace?"
"Not many, probably only a few dozen."
Su Xiu replied thoughtfully: "But the Thunder Tiger Clan is quite powerful, and the members of the clan have practiced Taoism for at least a hundred years."
"Dozens of people, with a minimum of a hundred years of cultivation."
Yan Huanwen repeated it, thought for a moment and quickly came to a conclusion.
"So either a lot of people or experts came this time, otherwise it would be impossible for them to control the Purple Mountain Palace so quickly, and even prevent that Thunder Tiger from sending a message for help."
"It's impossible for too many people to come at once."
Shaking her head, Su Xiu denied Yan Huanwen's first guess.
"The teleportation array can only accommodate one person at a time. Even if there are thousands of troops, they have to come one by one."
"Besides, I have already given Lei Hu an order that anyone who comes from that place after Miss Liu will be killed immediately."
"So no matter how many people they have, once they are teleported here, it will be a one-on-many situation. Ordinary warriors won't survive for even a second."
"What's more, the teleportation array will keep dead things out. How can they survive in the Purple Mountain Palace without weapons?"
“.”
I have to say that Su Xiu’s analysis was correct.
If it were ordinary warriors, no matter how many there were, they could only be teleported one by one. The result would undoubtedly be like the Calabash Brothers saving their grandfather, and none of them would return.
And in this way. "Top three rank masters."
Yan Huanwen frowned even more: "Even second-grade."
“Second rank.”
Su Xiu was stunned for a moment: "But Miss Liu said that she was being chased by a group of bandits. If there really was a second-grade master among these bandits, how could she have escaped?"
"Bandits?"
Yan Huanwen sneered: "At this time, do you still believe what she said?"
"I"
Su Xiu couldn't help but be stunned.
Indeed, judging from the current situation, Yang Liushi was undoubtedly lying.
"Someone come!"
With a delicate shout, Su Xiu immediately wanted to order to capture Yang Liushi.
However, Yan Huanwen suddenly stopped him and said:
"Wait a moment!"
"Demon King, the people over there probably don't know that this teleportation array connects Da Ning and Da Jue."
"So they are most likely not coming here for you or me, but maybe just for that fox girl."
"And since there are experts among those who come, we should not make enemies with them."
"In my opinion, we should talk to them first. If we can come to an agreement, we can just hand the person over to them."
"We may even be able to use these people to help us in the national war."
“.”
After hearing what Yan Huanwen said, Su Xiu was stunned and felt that what he said made sense.
After all, only two people had come over to the teleportation array before, and the teleportation array had the property of rejecting dead objects, so neither Yang Liushi nor the man who came later could carry any communication equipment, and naturally they could not send back the situation here.
Therefore, the people over there probably don't know where this teleportation array is connected to.
In this case, the other party's attack this time is most likely not for the Seventh Demon Land or Dajue, but just to rescue Yang Liushi.
Although the other party killed the Leihu clan guarding the Zishan Palace as soon as they arrived, it was unwise to make enemies with a second-grade master.
In this case, "Okay, then let's follow King Jue's words for now."
Nodding, Su Xiu quickly made a decision.
"Come here, take Miss Liu to the secret room in the back mountain and keep her under strict guard!"
"But remember, don't neglect her!"
“.”
Faced with the enemy who suddenly showed up, Su Xiu wisely did not choose to confront him head-on without knowing the other party's background yet.
On the other side, Wei Changtian actually had a similar idea.
He had learned from the guards of Zishan Palace that Yang Liushi was not only alive, but had even been taken back to Bailing Mountain as a guest by the demon king of the seventh demon land.
They were already in the enemy's territory, and the other party didn't do anything to Yang Liushi. So Wei Changtian naturally gave up the idea of rushing up the mountain gate to rescue people, and instead planned to talk to Su Xiu first.
If the latter is willing to hand over Yang Liu's poem, then his mission will be accomplished and he can escape unscathed.
If the latter doesn't hand it over, the worst that can happen is we'll just have to fight again.
Even if the talks went well, he could use the power of the Seventh Demon Land to stir up some trouble in the rear of Dajue and relieve the pressure of the Liangzhou war . From a God's perspective, the current development of events was actually a little funny.
Yan Huanwen and Su Xiu wanted to use Wei Changtian's power to disrupt Daning.
However, Wei Changtian wanted to borrow Su Xiu's power to disrupt Dajue.
Both of these things are undoubtedly impossible, but neither party involved knows this now.
After all, Yan Huanwen didn't know that the person coming was Wei Changtian.
And Wei Changtian also didn't know the story of Yan Huanwen and Su Xiu. Of course.
This layer of window paper will surely be punctured when the two sides actually meet.
But at this moment, whether it was Wei Changtian, Su Xiu or Yan Huanwen, they all lacked the expected anticipation for this.
that's all.
Carrying the only survivor in Zishan Palace, Wei Changtian and his four companions ran 500 miles overnight and finally arrived at the foot of Bailing Mountain at dawn.
Su Xiu had already made all the preparations, so before Wei Changtian and the others entered the mountain, she saw several beautiful women coming out of the mountain to greet them.
They were slightly stunned when they saw that Wei Changtian's group actually consisted of five people, but they soon regained their composure and said with a smile:
"Everyone, you are from Tianshan, right?"
"yes."
Wei Changtian, who was standing in the front of the five people, was also stunned. He didn't expect that the seventh demon would be so easy to talk to.
No, I haven't spoken yet.
So what is this?
Beauty trap? First courtesy, then force?
Was the other party giving in or cheating? Wei Changtian was unsure for a moment, but the group of women on the other side did not hesitate at all. After confirming their identities, they all raised their hands to salute.
"Seniors, please come to the mountain."
"Our king has been waiting for a long time."
