I have an eternal eye

One night passed, and the fighting finally subsided.

Many houses were burned down, with charred wooden beams still smoking, and incomplete rubble scattered on the ground.

In the thick fog, the surviving people looked ashen. Some sat on the ground and wailed, while others dug through the rubble, trying to find the bodies of their relatives.

The sergeants patrolling back and forth also looked confused.

Last night there was a lot of killing, and many people were swiping their swords at each other. Even though Daduye was busy working around to detoxify, some people were still immersed in the killing, and it was only in the middle of the night that the situation was stabilized.

Since ancient times, war disasters have been as great as natural disasters.

If it is mixed with magic, the harm will be even worse.

"Here, we found another one!"

Exclamations rang out, and the patrol sergeants hurriedly gathered around.

This is an old house that has collapsed in the fire. No one lives in it. The firewood piled in the woodshed turned into coke, and a hole in the ground was exposed after the collapse.

Some soldiers lit torches and climbed in carefully.

I saw an altar standing in the cave. It was made of human bones mixed with mud. There were circles of complex runes on it. The blood inside had dried up, and there was a dagger stuck in the center.

"Smashed!"

The soldiers were not afraid. On the contrary, they were full of anger and went up to completely demolish the mud bone altar.

They have found a lot of this stuff in the city.

Some news has spread that many people in the army have been infiltrated and tried to carry out killing rituals in Jianye City. Seeing that the opportunity was not good in the middle of the night, they rushed out of the city gate and fled into the mountains.

Guilt, grief and anger turned into anger in the hearts of these soldiers.

The object of anger is not the killing cult;

But King Huaizhou!

…………

"Take them all down and torture them one by one!"

In the palace, there were constant wailing sounds.

From the relatives of the palace to the servants, they were all taken into prison. When the hunting sergeants saw that the palace was still well-dressed and well-fed, remembering that they were starving and killing each other, they became even more angry and started mercilessly.

If it weren't for the disciples of Xuandu Temple watching over them, they might have raped and killed all the female members of the palace and plundered them along the way.

But they didn't dare, because things had changed in the city.

After the death of King Huaizhou, the city was left without a leader. Lingqiong was angry at his actions and directly declared his guilt and took over the military power. The four major families also took advantage of the situation and uprooted King Huaizhou's power.

Throughout the day, people were being arrested in the city.

Inside the Jianye City Government Office, the atmosphere was equally solemn.

Zheng Shangwen, an elder of the Zheng family, was elected as the city lord, and other families also divided up important positions in the city and discussed countermeasures together.

In the lobby, a Sijingmen monk had been tied up with five flowers. He knelt on the ground and said with panic in his eyes: "Zhao Jingcheng asked me to do it. He said it was under the order of the prince."

"On that day, the prince celebrated his birthday and invited Elder Xu Qing and others to a banquet. Under the leadership of Zhao Jingcheng, we used the earth escape technique to sneak under the City God's Temple and put this object in."

"Zhao Jingcheng said that those untouchables went to the City God's Temple to offer incense and often cursed the prince. With this thing, they can sleep peacefully..."

Zhang Biao was also listening to the trial. He looked at the black jade statue of the City God in his hand, and his spiritual eyes had already found out the roots.

Nightmare Sheng Jade (Yellow Level 3)

1. It is carved from the death jade of Senluo Prison in the spiritual world. It is refined into a nightmare object, which can absorb and gather incense and resentment. It was born out of the three divine methods of the Pagoda Realm. Pei Tu, the Zuo Protector of the Killing Sect, obtained it through the killing sacrifice.

2. After the blood sacrifice, you can control the evil spirit transformed by the City God of Jianye City. The spirit of the City God has been destroyed.

3. Any rules, there will be people who will find ways to circumvent and take advantage of them...

"This thing is called Nightmare Sheng Jade."

Zhang Biao didn't hide anything, and roughly explained its use.

"idiot!"

Ling Qiong, who was listening, had eyes full of anger. He slapped the table hard and the wooden table beside him suddenly shattered into pieces.

Xuandu Guan was short of manpower in Huaizhou, and because of the Yunxia Pass incident, most of them were transferred away by Xu Chen. He thought that the city god would suppress him and build Ye City as impregnable as possible, but he didn't expect that the King of Huaizhou actually dug his own walls.

In the hall, people from the four major families had different eyes.

They knew what King Huaizhou was thinking. In this world of changes, only by seizing more rights and resources could they have enough leverage to cope with the changes.

Winning military power requires food and grass security, establishing the Four Scenery Sect, and even settling the four major families require resources.

To do this, we can only suffer from the hardships of the people.

For example, grain is still in stock in several major granaries in Huaizhou, but King Huaizhou would rather have food prices soar and famine spread across the land, but he still wants to hold it firmly in his hands to control the military power.

There are also four Sijingmen, many of whom were once low-ranking gangsters, often breaking the law and causing harm to the people.

These resentments will naturally be concentrated on King Huaizhou.

If they were on stage, if they knew about this wonderful method, they would definitely do something wrong.

I just didn't expect that it would be used by the Killing Cult.

Thinking of his senior brother and Uncle Xu Qing, who died because of King Huaizhou's greed, Lingqiong felt a surge of evil fire in his heart, and coldly snorted to everyone: "The human heart cannot be deceived. The way of incense can harvest all the people." If anyone dares to cause trouble again, don’t blame me for being rude!"

"Don't dare!"

Everyone quickly handed over.

Acting City Lord Zheng Shangwen gently stroked his white beard and said thoughtfully: "I'm a little strange. Logically speaking, the Liang Dynasty is also the way of incense, and it has long made people angry. Why hasn't Zhao Mian suffered a backlash?"

Lingqiong glanced coldly, "The Huoluo Sect deceives people with its teachings, saying that after death, one can enter the realm of gods, and it also tames them with strict teachings. Just like the devil, one day they will taste the bitter fruit."

"If this method is feasible, why wouldn't I, Xuandu Monastery, not use it?"

When everyone heard this, they immediately looked embarrassed and said nothing.

Lingqiong snorted and continued to ask: "Then what else did King Huaizhou do in private?"

The Si Jingmen monk who was kneeling in the hall was agitated. He was a little hesitant, but when he thought that he couldn't bear the ecstasy, he simply gritted his teeth and confessed everything.

"Then Zhao Kang, ordered us to secretly dig graves everywhere, looking for clues about ancient inheritance, and also placed spies in each family."

"This insect plague was caused by someone who went deep into the underground caves, found the ancient tombs of the Kingdom of Guo, and excavated them extensively."

"I also overheard this matter. Everyone involved at that time has been silenced by General Jiao Zhong. I think the sect master's intention is to use this news to achieve meritorious service and gain a high position in the mountain after the prince comes back..."

"Scum, shameless!"

Lingqiong couldn't bear it anymore, stood up suddenly, and shouted angrily: "Immediately send a message and report this matter to Jilu Peak. Zhao Wuji hurried back. He must be involved in this matter, and he must not be allowed to escape!"

"Yes, senior brother!"

A young Taoist priest left quickly.

The remaining Taoist people in Xuandu Temple were also very angry. One person looked at the members of the four major families and said, "There are really more and more of these messy things on the mountain..."

The members of the four major families looked embarrassed and lowered their heads in silence.

When their children come to the mountains, they already have a low status. If they want to gain a foothold, they must form gangs.

It can only be said that King Huaizhou is unlucky.

Xu Chen wanted to do something big in Lushan City and transferred most of the Xuandu Temple disciples away, so King Huaizhou could do so many things in private. If it weren't for the killing cult to cause trouble, it would really be possible to succeed.

Also, when Daliang occupied Yunxia Pass, King Huaizhou transferred his army back to guard Jianye. The original intention was to preserve the power in his hands, but it also laid hidden dangers for the fall of the palace.

No matter how many calculations you make, it will be in vain without luck.

After thoroughly understanding the reason, Lingqiong continued to ask questions.

"Do you know where Zhao Jingcheng went?"

"There was chaos in the palace last night. He took his close disciples to escape. The younger one also doesn't know where he went..."

"Do you know the location of the ancient tomb of Guo Kingdom?"

"I only vaguely heard it, in the mountains north of the city..."

Is it the north of the city again?

Zhang Biao was thoughtful, the remnants of the Killing Sect were heading north of the city, and Chu Suyun, who had obtained the Qiongqi Nuo Face, was also in the mountains north of the city. Could there be something weird among them...

Thinking of this, he didn't hesitate anymore and immediately stood up and said: "Something big may happen in the north of the city. You must gather your troops and wait for my news at any time."

After that, he strode out of the government office.

Xuanduguan and others looked at each other.

"Brother, what should I do?"

"Listen to Mr. Tai Sui, go and gather the troops quickly. The Sect of Killing must have taken action during this insect plague."

"Senior Brother Lingchong has sent word that he will return soon after escorting the poison-avoiding pill. Then he can send his army into the mountain and wipe out the remaining bandits!"

On the other side, after Zhang Biao arranged for Mr. Big Du, he rode directly out of the city gate and headed towards the mountainous area to the north...

At the same time, there were more than twenty horses galloping on the plank road in the southern mountainous area hundreds of miles away from Jianye City.

The leader has handsome features, sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, and fair skin. Even if he is wearing a Taoist robe, he can't hide his aura of nobility.

It was Zhao Wuji, the prince of Huaizhou.

Click!

Vibrated by the horse's hooves, the wooden planks of the plank road ahead suddenly shattered, and the earth and rocks fell into the thick fog of the cliff.

No one panicked, and with a shake of the reins, the horses immediately leaped into the air and crossed the ravine, neighing with their hooves.

After crossing the dangerous plank road and entering a canyon, Zhao Wuji pulled the reins, stopped the horse, and said apologetically to the side: "Huaizhou has a dangerous terrain and is blocked by mountain torrents, but it made my senior brother laugh."

The person he spoke to was a sturdy man, wearing a black Taoist robe, carrying a long sword, and his eyebrows were like broomsticks. What was even weirder was that his eyes actually had two pupils.

This human being, whose name is Han Xiezi, is a disciple of Xuandu Guanshenjianfeng. He is born with extraordinary talents and is highly valued by the sect.

The prince of Huaizhou, Zhao Wuji, tried every means to please him since he came to the mountain. It was with his help that he gained favor with the elder of Wude Peak.

This time when I returned to Huaizhou to combat the insect infestation, apart from the children of the four major families, they were Han Xiezi's group of juniors.

He said he was here to help with his boxing, but Zhao Wuji knew that this person found it boring to practice on the mountain and wanted to go down the mountain to relax.

Hearing Zhao Wuji's words, Han Xiezi smiled faintly, "It's just a mountain road. If Junior Brother Zhao has the opportunity to enter the secret realm of the spiritual world of Divine Sword Peak in the future, he will know what the danger is."

Zhao Wuji said with a wry smile on his face: "Junior brother, I am stupid and far different from my senior brother. How dare I go to a place like that?"

"Junior brother is too modest."

Han Xiezi said with deep meaning in his eyes: "If you are really not qualified, how can you be favored by Uncle Ruohai? It's boring to hide your stupidity with me."

Zhao Wuji felt something in his heart, and he quickly lowered his head and said, "Yes, yes, what senior brother taught you is..."

As he spoke, Han Xiezi suddenly turned around and looked at the valley. The sword behind him buzzed and trembled, and he said in a cold voice: "Escape from the Earth, if you don't show up, don't even think about coming out again!"

Phew~

The black smoke turned into a whirlwind, and with splashes of earth and rocks, a figure flew out. It was Zhao Jingcheng, the master of the Four Scenery Sect.

After he appeared, he bent down deeply and said with a smile on his face: "Little Zhao Jingcheng, on the order of the prince, I am here to welcome all the young masters."

Zhao Wuji took a look and quickly explained: "This man is an uncle of my clan. He doesn't understand etiquette. Senior brother, don't blame him."

Han Xiezi nodded slightly, too lazy to pay attention.

After Zhao Wuji turned around, he said with a smile on his face: "Uncle Jingcheng, could it be that something happened to the insect plague again?"

He is astute and knows that Zhao Jingcheng will not come to wait for him for ordinary trivial matters. Saying this also makes Zhao Jingcheng pay attention to his words and deeds.

Zhao Jingcheng was a little hesitant and said with a smile on his face: "Young masters, please don't be surprised. There are some family matters. I don't want to talk nonsense. Please move away."

Zhao Wuji frowned and apologized to Han Xiezi: "Brother, please wait a moment, I'll be back soon."

After that, he and Zhao Jingcheng went to a secluded place a few hundred meters away.

Once there, there is no trace...
