Chapter 231 Breaking the Formation!
Not far behind here.
The little fat emperor's face was red and swollen from crying.
I couldn't stop crying.
He felt uneasy when he heard that Black Cat Warrior had met with the Duke of Zhenguo Zeng Anmin in private.
I immediately went to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, only to see the Duke's corpse...
At that moment, his eyes turned red and he raised his sword to kill Black Cat Warrior to avenge the Duke of Zhenguo.
At that time, there was a lion-like murderous intent in his eyes.
Obviously, the idea of killing Black Cat Wu Fu is absolutely real.
but……
He is no match for Black Cat Warrior.
After being captured by Zeng Anmin, he tried to persuade him in a kind manner.
At this point, the only option is to let Zeng Anmin go and assassinate him.
…………
Zeng Anmin rode on horseback and led the envoys southward.
"Traitor."
On the way, he heard the cold eyes of the soldiers in the team more than once.
"nausea."
"Damn it."
"At worst, I'll just die and beg for mercy."
"That's right. Only someone as despicable as this could come up with such a plan that would humiliate the country and lose its sovereignty."
"snort!"
“…………”
These sounds almost never stopped along the way.
Zeng Anmin just smiled when he heard this.
He ignored these people.
In his eyes, there was only the desire to assassinate the empress.
Soon they arrived at the southern battlefield.
But, after arriving on the battlefield.
Zeng Anmin did not go looking for the empress immediately.
Instead, he took the envoy to find someone.
This person is the empress’s son, Gu Huaizhong.
Gu Huaizhong is not very old.
After seeing Zeng Anmin, he was extremely arrogant.
"You're a lost dog, what are you doing here to see me?"
Zeng Anmin's face showed only respect.
He was respectful with a flattering smile:
"I've long heard that the Crown Prince of Jiang is loyal and powerful, and his authority is felt throughout the world."
"Today I see that you are indeed very brave. I came to give you a small gift, I hope you will accept it."
As he said this, he gave all the gifts worth thousands of gold that he had brought with him before leaving to Gu Huaizhong.
Gu Huaizhong was very happy when he saw this gift.
Zeng Anmin licked his face and smiled again:
"Um... Your Majesty, please make it clear on behalf of the Saint. Everyone in our dynasty fears the Saint's power and dares not send troops to resist."
"I wish that everyone in the country would become subjects of the Jiang Kingdom, paying tribute and taxes in order to preserve the ancestral temple."
"We are too humbled to make our own statement."
"I had no choice but to respectfully cut off Zeng Anmin's head and present the map of the Holy Kingdom. I sealed it in a box and had the Emperor of my Holy Kingdom present it to the court with great prostration. He sent me to report to His Majesty the Saint. All is at His Majesty's command."
The flattery and smile on Zeng Anmin's face reached the extreme.
As soon as he said this.
The people in the delegation wanted to slap his face to pieces.
But Gu Huaizhong on the side was extremely happy to hear it.
"Hahaha!! The emperor of your Holy Dynasty is quite interesting. Let me report to the Saint Empress and see if she is willing to meet you."
"yes."
Zeng Anmin crawled on the ground, respectfully wiped Gu Huaizhong's shoes, and sent him away.
After he leaves.
He slowly stood up, and the flattering smile on his face slowly faded.
He pursed his lips and waited quietly.
"Traitor!!"
“So disgusting!!”
"People like this deserve to die!!"
"Fuck! How could your mother give birth to something like you!"
"You damn thief!"
“…………”
When the people in the delegation saw Zeng Anmin's appearance, they attacked him with the most vicious words.
Some people even couldn't bear the shame and burst out crying.
Zeng Anmin just watched this scene indifferently.
He didn't say a word.
…………
Outside the illusion array.
Everyone stared at the huge red scroll.
At this time, the red light of the red scroll had almost reached its peak.
It flashes with a red light, like scarlet blood.
When Ningguo Duke Li Jian saw this scene, a smile appeared on his face:
"Go ahead and curse him. The more you curse, the more miserable his death will be."
"The word 'carrying firewood' doesn't matter to me. The illusion array doesn't care what your reason is."
"hehe."
…
Liu Shishi took a deep breath and said:
"Being misunderstood counts."
She looked deeply at the light that lit up the red scroll.
"But it's okay now, it hasn't reached its peak yet."
"If it reaches its peak, the illusion array will automatically kill anyone who enters it."
“…………”
As soon as these words were spoken.
Almost everyone in the stands clenched their fists tightly.
"Zeng Anmin..."
The eldest princess stared at the huge red scroll:
"Don't... be so willful."
Zeng Shilin gritted his teeth tightly.
The muscles on my face are twitching...
…………
In the illusion array.
After Empress Gu Xiangnan's son Gu Huaizhong conveyed Zeng Anmin's words to the Empress.
The empress smiled brightly:
"Then let's see Zeng Anmin's head!"
…………
"The Holy Dynasty envoy has arrived!!!"
Following the little eunuch's loud shout.
Zeng Anmin walked slowly into the tent with an expressionless face.
In the big tent.
The generals of Jiang State looked at him coldly.
Looking at his ordinary face.
At this time, there was a person standing on the left of Zeng Anmin.
On the road, he was the one who cursed Zeng Anmin the most fiercely.
This is also Zeng Anmin's own little trick.
Jing Ke assassinated Qin Shi Huang.
It was Qin Wuyang who ruined the matter, which made King Qin wary.
And he, taking history as a lesson, naturally wanted to find someone who was not afraid of death to be with him.
The end of the big tent.
A majestic figure looked towards this side calmly.
The figure didn't look old at all.
She is very well maintained.
Her skin is just like that of a young woman.
There was a hint of laziness in her eyes.
The brilliant light that flashed from time to time made people feel a chill in their hearts.
"Jing Ke, the envoy of the Holy Kingdom, greets the Holy Saint of the Celestial Dynasty."
The first thing he did was to appear in the big tent.
Zeng Anmin looked extremely respectful.
He knelt on the ground without hesitation and kowtowed to the empress at the end of the tent.
"Saint of the Celestial Empire?"
When the empress heard this, a hint of interest flashed across her eyes, which had been calm at first.
She glanced in Zeng Anmin's direction calmly:
"Jing Ke?"
"It is you, my humble servant."
Zeng Anmin was extremely respectful.
"What is your purpose in coming to our Jiangguo military camp today?"
The empress's faint voice echoed in the tent.
Knowing in advance is one thing.
Bringing it up again in the big tent is another matter.
"Come to give gifts."
"Two great gifts."
Zeng Anmin was still kneeling on the ground, and his long voice reached everyone's ears.
"What gift?"
"Duke Zhenguo, Zeng Anmin's head."
"And a map of the fifteen cities dedicated to the Saint by the Holy Dynasty."
Zeng Anmin was still kneeling there.
As he finished speaking.
The empress's eyes suddenly looked at the box in his hand.
"Zeng Anmin..."
"Come on up!"
"yes."
Zeng Anmin slowly stood up.
He took the box from the follower behind him.
Walk respectfully towards the tent.
One step, two steps...
Finally, he was only five steps away from the empress.
He stopped.
"Saint, please look."
After saying that, he slowly opened the box.
It turned out to be a human head!
Although the head had been processed.
But his face is clearly visible.
After the empress saw the head.
He didn't smile at first.
But it's complicated.
Her eyes flickered with inexplicable emotions.
"Quan Fu..."
She sighed deeply:
"Why bother?"
"Back when we attacked the Myriad Monsters Mountain together, the Mandarin Duck Army Formation you created was unrivaled in the world."
"I have also told you before that I wish to stay with you alone forever and rule the Jiang Kingdom together."
"Yet you still insist on returning to the Holy Land."
"It's been more than 20 years, but I never thought that when I saw you again, I would see your head..."
"It's sad and lamentable."
…
Feelings about the Empress.
Zeng Anmin pretended not to hear.
All the generals in the tent pretended not to hear.
"However, seeing your head today has completely put my mind at ease."
finally.
The empress smiled.
Her face was filled with a wide smile.
It was a smile of relief that came from having all the worries in the world gone.
She slowly raised her head, her smile still there.
Looking at the ordinary face in front of him, he said:
"Fifteen cities, show me."
"yes."
Zeng Anmin's face was still full of respect.
He took a roll of maps from the box.
As he walked forward he said:
"These fifteen cities are extremely close to the Celestial Empire and were carefully selected by our emperor for the Celestial Empire."
While talking.
He was only one step away from the empress in front of him.
"oh?"
The empress felt more and more happy.
She chuckled, her eyes slowly moving to the map.
After getting the head of Duke Zhenguo Zeng Anmin.
She no longer had any doubt in her mind about the purpose of this mission from the Great Saint Dynasty.
Some even felt that the emperor of the Northern Holy Dynasty was extremely sensible.
"Your Majesty, please look."
Zeng Anmin was adjusting his breathing calmly at this time.
As he slowly unfolded the map, he observed the Empress's movements from time to time.
At this time, the empress's eyes were completely immersed in the map.
"Crash~"
The map slowly unfolded.
………………
Outside the illusion array.
As the huge red scroll within the red scroll unfolded.
Everyone in the Suzaku Gate held their breath.
Staring intently at the huge red scroll.
At this moment, the red light on the red scroll was flashing with an extremely bright and strange blood-red color.
That strange blood-red color became redder and redder...
…………
In the illusion array.
The map is already three-quarters expanded.
Only the last inch remains.
The empress stared at the map intently.
She looked at the cities on the map that were marked as having been donated to the Jiang Kingdom.
The smile on his face became more and more obvious.
Fifteen cities were captured without bloodshed.
This is a very profitable business for any emperor.
Not to mention.
There is also the head of a serious concern.
There is no Great Holy Dynasty without Zeng Anmin.
It's like a horse without hooves.
You can't run far.
finally.
“Wow~”
The map is fully opened.
A dagger flashing an eerie purple color suddenly appeared!!
The empress's eyes were always fixed on the map.
She didn't even react at first to the appearance of the dagger.
Zeng Anmin no longer had any hesitation.
He suddenly stretched out his left hand and tightly grasped the empress's wrist.
His right hand gripped the dagger.
With a thought, the martial arts energy in his body surged towards the dagger like a whale spouting water.
“Swish!!!”
A strange dark red aura suddenly burst out from Zeng Anmin's body.
That is... a "domain" that only a fourth-grade warrior can comprehend! !
Long before leaving.
Zeng Anmin immediately noticed this body and was deduced to a fourth-grade warrior by the illusion array.
As an assassin, the Black Cat Warrior has comprehended the realm of "killing".
The killing zone emerges.
The whole picture is weird.
This moment.
Everyone in the tent forgot to speak.
He looked at Zeng Anmin who suddenly jumped up with a dazed face.
"Killing Domain!! He is the Black Cat Warrior!!!"
Until a hissing sound was heard.
Everyone finally reacted.
However, it was too late.
The dagger had already entered the empress's chest.
At this moment, the smile on the empress's lips had frozen.
Her eyes flickered with shock.
She looked at the ordinary face in front of her.
After a long time, understanding flashed in those eyes.
"I see……"
She whispered softly.
Then came the endless darkness.
"Pfft~"
The empress's body fell to the ground.
It's obvious.
The assassination mission was successfully completed.
The empress didn't even have time to circulate the martial arts energy in her body.
After killing the empress.
Zeng Anmin slowly narrowed his eyes.
It seems that this illusion array is really rubbish.
As the owner of the Kanlongtu, he naturally knew that it was in the chat group of the Tiandaotu.
The empress is the owner of Jiang Guoce's Fengtu.
With the help of Ce Fengtu, after so many years of practice, she must have reached at least the fourth level of cultivation.
And he estimated the fate of the empress in the formation whom he killed.
It's only the peak of the sixth level.
Garbage AI.
After killing the empress, Zeng Anmin complained in his heart.
Then he looked at the tent which was in chaos without changing his expression.
Countless weapons attacked him.
The faces of those Jiang State generals were all filled with madness.
"Thief!!!"
"Grass!!"
"Kill him to avenge His Majesty!"
"It's better to capture him alive and make him suffer a fate worse than death!!"
“…………”
And a sudden scene.
The follower who came with Zeng Anmin was stunned.
He stared at Zeng Anmin on the platform, his face completely dull.
Watching those generals waving their weapons like crazy, they wanted to kill Zeng Anmin.
He trembled, crawled on the ground, buried his head in his chest, and didn't dare to look...
Looking at those weapons that are flashing with light.
A smile slowly appeared on Zeng Anmin's lips. He closed his eyes and murmured:
"Since ancient times, everyone has died."
"Leave behind a loyal heart that shines brightly in the Han Dynasty."
…………
Outside the illusion array.
After this scene emerged.
The entire Suzaku Gate Square was silent.
Finally, someone started sobbing.
As a sobbing sound was heard, everyone was instantly filled with sadness.
They could only watch helplessly as the "Black Cat Warrior" was overwhelmed by countless weapons.
"A peerless national hero!!"
"A peerless national hero!!"
"A peerless national hero!!"
The entire square was drowned out by the crazy shouting of these four words.
Ningguo Duke Li Jian watched all this indifferently.
At this time, the huge red scroll had slowly dimmed.
The strange blood-red color slowly dissipated after Zeng Anmin assassinated the empress.
The danger seemed to have dissipated at this moment...
"Haha, if the 'Carrying Firewood Illusion Formation' is so simple, then it doesn't deserve to be called the 'Carrying Firewood Illusion Formation'."
"I just don't know what the theme of this illusion array will be?"
Li Jian frowned and looked deeply at the huge red scroll.
…
"Illusionary theme?"
Emperor Jianhong frowned and looked at Liu Shishi in front of him indifferently.
"Um."
Liu Shishi clenched her fists and stared at the huge red scroll.
"This is the last test. He will definitely pass..."
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone stared at the huge red scroll.
…………
In the illusion array.
After Zeng Anmin was overwhelmed by countless weapons.
A huge red light flashed away.
The entire picture became extremely blurry.
The next moment.
The red light slowly faded away.
A picture appeared before everyone's eyes.
In the picture.
Zeng Anmin slowly opened his eyes...
"My Lord, someone wants to see you. He's in the courtyard."
Zeng Anmin nodded silently.
He considered it slowly in his mind.
[After killing the Empress, I should have passed the test...]
[But why are you still in the formation? ]
[And also changed his identity...]
With just one glance, he recognized his current identity as...Zeng Anmin, the Duke of Zhenguo, twenty-seven years from now! !
Who is asking to see you in the courtyard?
There was no expression of any strangeness on Zeng Anmin's face.
After he nodded, he walked towards the courtyard.
finally.
He met the person who asked to see him.
It was an extremely ordinary face.
The man was kneeling on the ground respectfully at this time:
"The world is in crisis. For the sake of the people, please come out and save them!"
"Black Cat Wufu?"
Zeng Anmin looked at that ordinary face and spoke solemnly.
"Well?"
The man looked up in astonishment: "How did the Duke know this?"
From the moment this person appeared.
Zeng Anmin understood.
He vaguely remembered Liu Shishi's voice before entering the formation.
"Carrying Firewood Illusion Formation?"
Just four simple words.
He understood clearly in his heart.
There was a gleam of brilliance in his eyes.
"I already know how to break the formation."
“So, it’s that simple!!”
