"You are a beast." Jiang Jingwei was furious. "How can you be my father when you help a traitor who is harming the country? Besides, you are not my father in the first place."

Now she didn't know this middle-aged man, but she understood their identity from his words - the Divine Sharp Army, and the extra saints were the remnants of the Divine Sharp Army.

The remnants of the Shenrui Army attacked Yuanshi Tianzun last time in Hongxiu Pavilion, and now it seems to her that the Shenrui Army has already defected to Zheng Wenhan and become her enemy.

Fortunately, Yuanshi Tianzun still wanted to pull them into his camp. Guan Ya, Xiao Yuan and others had the opposite idea from Jiang Jingwei. They still believed that Zhao Kai was dead and Yuanshi's plan to win him over had failed, resulting in the Shenrui Army becoming a hostile camp.

The saints who returned from the dead, Elder Xu Chang of the Qinglong Gang, and the guests of the Yang Mansion felt heavy in their hearts, as the quality and quantity of the enemy saints far exceeded their own.

The plan to behead Zheng Wenhan within a quarter of an hour would definitely not work. There was no way to force the attack as they were surrounded on all sides. They had to wait for most of the city defense forces to arrive and be wiped out by the Zheng family.

Zhou Keqing looked at Guan Ya, changed his address, and said with a wry smile, "Miss, is there still a need to fight to the death? You take your friends and go, I will cover you."

Elder Xu had also lost his will to fight, and felt a sense of regret and unwillingness in his heart. He was not afraid of death, but he did not want to die in vain.

The assassination attempt failed tonight and the Southern Dynasty, a high-rise building that was about to collapse, was completely hopeless. In the past, he would at most feel regretful, but he would never feel unwilling.

After all, the court was rotten from top to bottom.

Now the tyrant emperor has finally managed to cheer himself up, but this is the outcome.

Guan Ya exchanged glances with the Palace Master, Xiao Yuan, Xie Lingxi, and the Queen. As a scout, the Queen showed her leadership qualities and said calmly, "I choose to believe him!"

Guan Ya chose to believe that Yuanshi Tianzun was not really in love. The game between star officials emphasizes keeping some things in reserve. It is impossible for Yuanshi Tianzun to reveal all his plans to his teammates.

Telling everything means telling the national master of the same profession, so the most important thing for them, the chess pieces on the chessboard, to do is to continue the mission instead of retreating at the critical moment.

After the girls nodded slightly to show their approval of her choice, Guan Ya said loudly:

"Mr. Xu Chang, are you willing to die for the Southern Dynasty?

? "

Xu Changlao sighed and said, "Okay."

Guan Ya asked again, "Mr. Zhou, are you willing to die for the Yang family?" Mr. Zhou also sighed and said, "I agree."

As soon as he finished speaking, a small sword rushed out from his sleeve and shot towards Zheng Wenhan like a meteor wrapped in wind and thunder.

Guan Ya and Xu Changlao also used their flying swords to take heads. Xie Lingxi and the Palace Master sang passionate tunes, which made the three flying swords more powerful.

The saints of Zheng Mansion took action one after another, some summoned flying swords to intercept or erected earth walls to block, some controlled animals such as cats, dogs, rats, snakes to surround the enemy, and some launched direct attacks.

Suddenly, huge flames exploded, sword energy spread everywhere, evil spirits roared, and plague spread raging.

At this moment, the saint of the Shenrui Army who had been standing on the roof suddenly turned his spear and killed Zheng Wenhan.

Lady Chu's father was the first to bear the brunt of the attack, roaring, "You bastard, General Wu and the Shenrui Army must pay for their blood debt."

Zheng Wenhan, who was standing behind the earth wall, was stunned for a moment, then his face changed drastically and he shouted, "Everyone, save me."

Zheng Wenshi rode his horse and galloped wildly on the empty main street. Behind him were the elite troops that the Zheng family had fed with silver over the years, a total of one hundred people.

Although this team is not as strong as Tuoba Guanghe's Juque Army, every member of this team is capable of fighting ten men at once, and each of them has his own cultivation. If any one of them is picked out alone, he would be a well-known master in the martial arts world.

The ten Shichangs were even junior grandmaster-level masters. Even if they were level four beginners who had just touched the junior grandmaster level, and equipped with expensive equipment such as the armor-piercing crossbow, silver-thread black fire needle, and thunder bombs, even masters who had half a step towards the grandmaster level would have to retreat.

The reason why Zheng Wenshi took this powerful army into hiding was that he did not want to show up too early and scare off the enemy.

The eldest brother Zheng Wenhan received a secret letter from Tianji Tower, saying that the tyrant's followers would launch a surprise attack on the Zheng Mansion tonight. The Zheng family took advantage of the situation and set up a tight net to wait for the enemy's attack.

As long as we get rid of the tyrant's followers, we can settle the matter.

Just then, a figure appeared in front of him, blocking his way. The man had ordinary features and an average height. He was wearing a black suit, carrying a heavy package on his back and holding a torch.

Zheng Wenshi's eyes narrowed and he said sternly: "Anyone who violates the curfew will be killed."

He didn't even bother to talk nonsense with the other party. He took off the knife hanging on his horse's back, put an arrow on the bow, pulled the bow, and the arrow shot out and pierced the man's chest.

The man who blocked his way fell to his knees with a broken heart. Zheng Wenshi spurred his horse forward, took out the sword from his waist, and was about to chop off the man's head.

The man in black suit suddenly raised his head and cursed with all his strength, "Qing Gang leader, you son of a bitch named Zheng, go to hell!"

He pulled the torch in his hand back, lit the fuse, and blue smoke hissed out.

Zheng Wenshi's heart trembled. As a swordsman, his insight made him smell the danger. He jumped up suddenly and soared into the sky like a spinning top.

"boom!"

A deafening explosion was accompanied by dazzling flames. The air wave raised dust and tiles from the building ten meters away, causing Zheng Wenshi, a young master, to be swept away by the wave and his blood surged.

"General!" The adjutant trotted over to greet the general who was still frightened.

"What is this? Compared to this thing, the thunderbolt made by the Ministry of Industry is like a firecracker, not worth mentioning."

Zheng Wenshi's face was gloomy. "It's a master-level item, but it's a pipe dream to think you can use it to assassinate me." After saying that, he jumped onto his adjutant's horse and was about to lead his men back to the mansion.

Suddenly, the sound of tiles clacking came from the houses on both sides of the street. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw several men in black clothes, holding torches and carrying heavy packages appearing from the eaves of the houses on both sides of the street.

All the elite armored soldiers, including Zheng Wenshi, changed their expressions drastically.

These men didn't say a word, their eyes were firm, they lit the fuse with torches, and under the firelight, they looked like devout martyrs.

Explosions sounded one after another, and the flames of the explosions illuminated the night sky. The buildings on both sides of the main street were shattered in the shock wave of the explosion, and the shock was clearly visible hundreds of meters away.

Zheng Wenshi ran out of the fire in a panic, his armor was torn and his body was covered with black and red burns. His helmet was lost, revealing his bald head.

His face was beardless and his skin seemed to have been burned by boiling water, oozing with dark red blood.

In addition to the shocking external injuries, Zheng Wenshi's internal injuries were even more terrible, with extensive bleeding in his internal organs and heat and toxicity attacking his heart.

Even though Xiaodu was at the peak of his mastery, he was unable to dodge this large-scale, all-encompassing explosion with his speed, and had to rely on his cultivation to defeat it.

In addition to Zheng Wenshi, there were three other Shichang who survived, one who practiced the art of taming beasts, and two who practiced earth-attributed spiritual power.

All three of them were seriously injured and dying, but they survived by relying on their strong willpower. For them, as long as they stayed alive and breathed in spiritual energy, even the most serious injuries could be healed.

Zheng Wenshi staggered and turned around to look behind him. The ground was covered with charred flesh and blood. A sweet feeling surged in his heart.

All the elite troops that the Zheng family had fed with silver were gone.

Dadada.

Light footsteps were heard from the end of the street, and a young man with untidy beard and dressed in black walked over.

Zheng Wenshi was slightly hunched over and breathing heavily. He looked at the young man who was walking slowly towards him and said through gritted teeth, "What benefits did Zhao Shun give to the Qinglong Gang that made you so reckless that you even risked your life."

The unshaven young man looked in the direction of Tianji Tower, then withdrew his gaze and said, "He promised us a peaceful country with a peaceful people."

So, light the fire and launch the charge.

"Your Majesty, no, your Majesty is right. When you are alive, you should die!"

Zheng Wenshi's eyes became fierce and he pointed his sword. Puff, a head flew up. The headless body was still carrying the bag and ran for more than ten meters. Finally, it exploded in the desperate gaze of Zheng Wenshi and the other three.

The flames were bright and dazzling. Zhang Yuanqing from Tianji Tower stood on the observation deck and watched the brilliant fireworks light up and then go out.

"When a person dies, it's like a light goes out. How beautiful!" he whispered.

"Sacrificing oneself for one's ideals and aspirations is the most beautiful thing in the world, and it is also the fate of a knight. This is a very good chess dungeon, better than any dungeon I've entered before."

Zhang Yuanqing tilted his head and said, "Master, what do you think of my move?"

Beside him, the national teacher's face had become ferocious and no longer had the ethereal and otherworldly air of an immortal.

"How did you convince the Shenrui Army?" The national teacher's eyes were gloomy.

"In fact, whether it's a night raid on Zheng's mansion or the Zheng family's trick, these are all chess moves that you and I know very well. The most important thing in this game is to count the chess pieces. If you can count all my chess pieces, you can win, otherwise you can't win."

Zhang Yuanqing said calmly: "As for helpers, Zheng Wenhan has tremendous power, and the city defense army's Imperial City Division has few experts. I am no match for him no matter what. I must come up with a way to make him willing to play along with me. To make him take this risk, I have to make him anxious, and also make the national teacher anxious. So I began to rack my brains to accumulate reputation and win the hearts of the people."

"Neither you nor Zheng Wenhan wanted to be eaten away by me step by step, so when you found out that I was contacting various means to attack the Zheng Mansion at night, you planned to use the same trick to lure us into the trap."

"For this reason, you don't even dare to arrange too many experts in Zheng Mansion, worried that I will choose to retreat when the situation is bad. After all, the experts of the Imperial City Division of the City Defense Army are all under the surveillance of the Yang family and the royal family."

"That's true, but if the number of experts cannot form an overwhelming force, it will be difficult to wipe us out in one fell swoop. So you choose the Shenrui Army. I also plan to win over the Shenrui Army!"

Zhang Yuanqing was not proud or happy. He still looked at the distant place where the fire burst out and said slowly, "Zhao Kai is just my abandoned pawn. The purpose is to paralyze you. I deliberately brought your female disciple Chu Meiren to contact Zhao Kai, just to let him enter your field of vision and let you see through my plan."

"When you curse Zhao Kai to death, you will think that I have lost the opportunity to win over the Shenrui Army!"

The national teacher said in a deep voice, "Isn't it?"

"Of course not. If we want to find out the truth about the demise of the Shenrui Army, we don't have to find witnesses in the Southern Dynasty. The Northern Dynasty's military can also be the witnesses!" Zhang Yuanqing said freely.

"Tuoba Guanghe entered the court too late. When Zheng Wenhan was a big shot in the Southern Dynasty, Tuoba Guanghe was just an ordinary man. The two had no intersection but were able to reach an agreement. There must be a person of sufficient weight to act as a bridge. Zheng Wenhan was responsible for contacting the Northern Dynasty military back then. I concluded that there must be someone in the Northern Dynasty army that attacked Linxia who had contacted Zheng Wenhan back then. So I secretly went to Linxia a few days ago, and just by asking the night wandering spirits in the garrison, I finally locked on a target person." Zhang Yuanqing looked at the national teacher and said.

"Then I captured the Northern Dynasty general alive, cut off his limbs, and brought him to the remnants of the Shenrui Army. To the Shenrui Army, Zheng certainly deserved to die, but Zheng Wenhan was one of the biggest culprits, so his priority was naturally higher than mine."

The entire plan was based on the fact that the Imperial Master could not deduce the emperor. The dragon energy body protection has its own hidden natural counter to the stargazing technique.

The Imperial Master stared at him with a gloomy expression, with murderous intent and hatred in his eyes, and he was silent for a long while before they finally turned into light and dissipated.

At the same time, Zhang Yuanqing

I heard the spiritual reminder sound coming from my ear

[Ding! Congratulations on completing the side quest to eliminate Zheng Wenhan

[Ding, the side quest is activated to kill the national teacher.

Guan Ya and the others were very proud. As the side quest was completed, a nebula mark appeared on their foreheads, and the nebula soon transformed into a scorching sun mark, and the seal was lifted.

The huge and pure power of the sun poured into his body, and golden light emanated from his body, illuminating the surroundings. He finally returned to the realm of domination, and all the items in the inventory were unsealed.

It was at this time that the entire Tianji Tower shook violently, like an earthquake, and a deafening roar came from the building.

Zhang Yuanqing's hair stood on end, and he felt a strong sense of crisis. He shouted towards the distance.

"The boss has come out of seclusion, Concubine Yuan and Concubine Yu, come and rescue him."
