Chapter Three Hundred and Fifty: The Demon is One Foot High

In the next two days, it seemed that the entire Yangchuan outlaws were attracted by the huge bonus that doubled this time. The city was full of crowds, and even the late night was still very lively.

Xiao Qianye sat in the room with the invitation letter in his hand. He didn't know any of the names on it. Compared to these people, he was more worried about which "guardian" would be sent to Juyi Pavilion this time.

In order to help the masters of the major museums to defend the final level, the defender has become a unique profession in Shucheng many years ago. The financial owners behind them will train these people themselves. Every time they succeed in defending the game, they will receive a considerable reward. Once they fail, they will face abandonment or even killing themselves! In fact, the defender can apply for retirement to the master after completing the task, but the more times they hold, the more money they can get. Over time, the person who is always blinded by profit will be completely lost and will be forced to withdraw until they fail.

Juyi Pavilion is the territory of Guo An, one of the five snakes, one of the five snakes. He was also a mysterious and strange and vicious person. Guo Huai, the deputy commander of the Ancient Ministry, whom he had encountered in the territory of Gala, seemed to be relatives with Guo An. I still remember that the kind of evil magic that Guo Huai used could control the body and invulnerable swords and guns. Even the white wolf's general Huo Cang was in a hard battle under such endless wheel battles. If the two of them had the same martial arts lineage, would this defender bear these evil magics?

Thinking of this, Xiao Qianye was inevitably a little worried. After all, he could not carry the sword spirit or use Gu Chen. No one knew if Guo An would also tamper with weapons?

It must be... As soon as he got this idea, he immediately had an answer in his heart. Looking at the bustling crowd on the road, he sighed unconsciously. The invitation letter was only distributed to the audience, but if someone was willing to participate, then Juyi Pavilion could continue to add people to the list, whether it was one hundred, two hundred, or five hundred, it was not surprising that even if one thousand people were squeezed in, no matter how many people were, there would only be ten left on the third day. It was just that the more people participated, the lower the chance of winning.

On the other hand, Guo An and his Juyi Pavilion are really calm and at ease.

Xiao Qianye closed his eyes and calculated according to the time, Kun Hong, the general of the Golden Crown Bird Legion, should have received the order from Hummingbird. At this time, he didn't know if he had time to go to Liucheng to save people. The imperial capital should have known about Lin Qingyang's incident in the past two days. If nothing unexpected happens, before he pretends to be Lin Qingyang to complete the conditions of Guo Sanye, the order of dismissal from the superiors will be passed down. According to the convention, other nearby guards will first detain the person to the prison, and then wait for the envoys of the imperial capital to come here in person, it will take at least ten days and a half months.

The Five Snakes are good at time, and they will definitely take Lin Qingyang's life before the imperial capital!

Thinking of the people in the imperial capital, Xiao Qianye couldn't help but frown and rubbed his eyebrows hard. I guess the Mrs. Jinchai of Fengmo must have reported the information here truthfully at this time, but whether it was a cause or not, violation is a violation. Even if he is not a fugitive now or the high-ranking military chief, he dare not say that he could save his subordinates' lives under such circumstances. Moreover, it is well known that Mingxi favors the military cabinet. Only then did he disband the imperial guards on the spot. If he continues to protect Lin Qingyang, it will undoubtedly cause shocking criticism.

Xiao Qianye suddenly opened his eyes, and a sharp edge flashed in his eyes. He suddenly realized something and clenched his fists with force - Could this be the real purpose of the Five Snakes? The power behind the Five Snakes is the Gao family. Now Gao Chengchuan and Gao Zhanping have fallen one after another. The Five Snakes, who have lost their support and backers, are they unable to protect themselves. Could it be that they want to fight back and use this method to test the emperor's heart? If the Emperor of Heavenly Venerable really continues to protect his shortcomings, can they take the opportunity to create momentum and cause dissatisfaction in the court?

Or maybe... this is simply the last bet of Gao Zhanping, who is desperate?

Xiao Qianye smiled strangely, and the corners of his mouth twitched, and he felt a little sympathetic to his former colleague Gao Zhanping. That guy had never seen Mingxi's methods. He thought he could cause public opinion turmoil. At the forefront of the storm, as long as there was civil turmoil in the court, he would really have a chance to turn around in troubled times, but he didn't know that he had dug a grave for himself and gave Mingxi a justified excuse to eradicate the remaining members of the Gao family!

No wonder Mingxi had to deal with Gao Zhanping himself, while asking him to remove the obstacles in front of him, while using the Jingge to remove the firewood from the Wushes' industrial cauldron, so that he could fundamentally rectify Yangchuan, which had been chaotic for many years!

"Mingxi... Mingxi." Xiao Qianye said to himself, chanting the emperor's name, but Xiao Yibai's face flashed in his mind. He touched the family emblem he had been carrying, looked at Feng Jiuqing who had closed his eyes and took a nap opposite him, and finally let go and did nothing more.

As he expected, in the depths of the Mo Pavilion, Mingxi put down the report from Fengmo in his hand as he wished, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. Gongsun Yan was lying weakly on the chair next to him. It seemed that he had been trying hard to deal with the troubles of the Imperial Capital during the recent period. At this time, the night was getting deeper and deeper, and he was also holding back his spirits and finally waited for the letter. Then, Mingxi turned the jade ring on his thumb, feeling the familiar spiritual power that had appeared again, and smiled and said, "I finally led the snake out of the hole. Now I am waiting for Master Xiao to pull out the big snake behind him..."

Gongsun Yan pulled the corner of his mouth, felt a headache, and interrupted the emperor casually and complained: "It's not easy to win. I didn't tell you before. Yangchuan's prison lost several tests. It was transferred secretly by Gao Zhanping abused his power. He is still missing. I asked Feng Mo to inquire from multiple sources, but only knew that one of them had indeed fallen into Guo An's hands. This time they blatantly threatened Lin Qingyang to participate in some underground fighting. Most of them had set up a trap there long ago. The so-called "guardians" were one of the tests."

Mingxi paused. Of course he remembered Gongsun Yan's words, but he didn't take them much to heart. Gongsun Yan guessed the result when he saw his expression. The corner of his mouth moved again, showing a disgusting expression, and continued: "Xiao Qianye cannot carry the sword spirit, 2 cannot expose Gu Chen, 3 cannot use Kunlun's sword skills. The weapons prepared in the fighting arena must have been tampered with the weapons. I am afraid that there are many Five Snakes people involved in the desperation. You are confident that he will definitely escape unscathed and can help you eliminate Guo An and find Gao Zhanping. Mingxi, do you trust him too much?"

Mingxi smiled "puchi", turned the jade ring in his hand, smiled at Xiao Yibai, who was still on Fengxintai with a gloomy face, and sighed: "I trust him very much. Since the day when the lord of the heaven world appeared in front of me, I have been willing to believe him. Heaven will not let him get into trouble. Even if the God of War doesn't take action, can King Ye still let him die? He has Feng Jiuqing next to him, and nothing can happen..."

Xiao Yibai suddenly raised his eyes. Even though he was far away, the unhappiness was still visible along the soul on the jade ring.

"Hey..." Gongsun Yan was shocked, his face turned pale by his words, and he coughed awkwardly. He quickly winked at Mingxi, and comforted him, "That's right, well... Mingxi, Lin Qingyang, what are you going to do?"

Mingxi searched through the pile of letters in front of him, and casually condensed his eyes into points: "He wanted to test whether I would continue to favor the military cabinet, openly recruit prostitutes, and fight in private. Such a serious violation is enough to kill to serve as a warning, but what if I refuse? They will definitely say that I am favoritism and abuse of power, and that as a king, I should be fair and just. Humph, I have known what they want to say. The ministers in the court who originally relied on the Gao family will definitely take the opportunity to "advice" to cause chaos, and they may be able to re-eave the rumors of the past again. How could I do this obvious routine so easily as he wished?"

"Then... you can't ignore it?" Gongsun Yan whispered. After all, Mingxi did not hesitate at all when disbanding the imperial guards. He did not even hold a bipolar meeting. He directly executed the emperor's order immediately. Whether it was intentional to protect his shortcomings or deliberately delaying, the result would be almost the same?

Mingxi sighed silently. He knew the nature of the generals of the military pavilion. Otherwise, he would not have forced Xiao Qianye to join the group at that time. Now he really ordered the arrest of Lin Qingyang. To be honest, he was a little unwilling to do things. He didn't expect Gao Zhanping to do things so cruelly. He had a little bit of Gao Chengchuan's shadow. Even if he failed, he had no room for a turnaround. He had to bring a military pavilion general to his death to take care of himself.

"I can't bear to let the child go, I can't trap the wolf..." Mingxi murmured, Gongsun Yan's face turned green, he jumped up, and asked nervously, "What do you mean? You really want to kill Lin Qingyang? Xiao Qianye is in Yangchuan. Do you do this and you want to have a quarrel with him again?"

"What are you anxious about? Can you wait for me to finish your words?" Mingxi glared at him impatiently. Although the two have had a good relationship since childhood, Gongsun Yan interrupted him like this without discerning the opportunity. Gongsun Yan was not afraid of the other party's current identity at all. In an instant, millions of possibilities flashed through his mind. Suddenly, cold sweat began to fall down his cheeks. Before Mingxi could speak, Xiao Yibai's voice came from his jade ring, "I'll issue an arrest warrant first, just leave the rest to Feng Mo."

"Wind Demon? By the way, there is also the wind Demon..." Gongsun Yan suddenly reacted and breathed a sigh of relief with a smile. He patted his chest and looked at Mingxi complainingly, "The devil is one foot taller, and the devil is that devil! Alas, you said it earlier! It scared me."

Mingxi ignored him with a cold face. Gongsun Yan thought about it and then suddenly jumped up nervously and said in a low voice: "There are only two people in Yangchuan, Mrs. Jinchai is a doctor in Jingcheng, and Mr. Chou is a teacher in Jiacheng. You can't expect them to save people, right?"

"I'll go." Xiao Yibai spoke suddenly, and his figure slowly appeared in his jade ring. His pair of ice-blue pupils stared at the silent Mingxi, and then continued, "I can only arrive at Yangchuan to save people within three days. Mingxi, don't you feel assured that I will leave Tianyu City?"

Gongsun Yan didn't dare to speak anymore. It turned out that Mingxi was holding Xiao Yibai and acting as a hostage for outsiders to see. He really had to use this person to restrain his younger brother Xiao Qianye. If he let him go at this time, even if there was a way to cover up his whereabouts and not be noticed, would Mingxi really be willing to take this risk?

This is his only bargaining chip against Xiao Qianye. If Xiao Yibai is persuaded by his younger brother not to come back, it would be a fatal mistake for him and there would be no chance of remedy.

The three of them had their own thoughts and were silent.

Mingxi's eyes did not look at Xiao Yibai. He kept staring at the dim candlelight in Moge until his eyes fell into a brief darkness because he had been open for too long. Then he frowned and closed his eyes hard, feeling a little irritated in his heart.

"I will come back, I promise." Xiao Yibai spoke lightly, but Mingxi turned his head silently at this moment and smiled disdainfully, "I'm not worried that you won't come back, I'm worried that you won't come back."

The two paused at the same time, and turned their heads away from looking at each other.

Xiao Yibai's body is still deteriorating. It seems that it is not just because of the constraints of the Night Curse, but because of his irreversible damage. This damage has been continuously infiltrated since that year when trying to divide the soul, eroding his body like a lingering demon. Now it finally shows its disadvantages. However, he can only watch helplessly, unable to do anything and unable to do anything.

After a long time, Mingxi waved his hand tiredly, and Gongsun Yan ordered: "You make arrangements and send him to Yangchuan, and don't be discovered by others."
