Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

Several people met briefly before entering the command tent.

Xiahou Cang formed a hand seal and spoke.

"Since we're all in the same boat, I hope we can work together this time..."

The others nodded with smiles, but Li Guanqi remained expressionless, feeling speechless inside.

Xiahou Cang was acting like an inexperienced cultivator.

Who would be sincere at a time like this?

Everyone was playing mind games!

There was only one piece of Frost Jade Glaze; who wouldn't fight for it in the end?

It could only be said that everything Li Guanqi was doing was a diversionary tactic outside of the Frost Jade Glaze itself.

Restraining the delicate relationships between the various forces, it would be best if no battle occurred before the Frost Jade Glaze appeared.

The others nodded with smiles, and the moment the barrier shattered, everyone unconsciously took a step forward!

Xiahou Cang instantly flashed forward, spreading his arms to stop them.

"Everyone! The rift hasn't opened yet, don't test it rashly!"

Chu Yuan, still gentle as jade, chuckled.

"Of course, of course."

But Xiahou Cang's face was unusually grim because he noticed three streams of energy extending towards the rift.

He simply stepped aside and said.

"This rift wasn't strong at the beginning, it only recently manifested."

No one spoke; with their divine senses, they could indeed sense the unusual coldness.

Moreover, the rift hadn't appeared for long, only recently.

The inside of the tent was shrouded in frost.

The huge stone crevice was covered in ice, and a faint blue spiritual light emanated from the depths.

Sinking over a hundred zhang, the deeper it went, the more intense the coldness became.

The cold was biting, and the aura it contained was indeed the aura of the true Frost Jade Glaze!

However, at this moment, Li Guanqi suddenly spoke.

"Everyone, that's enough. The strength of that barrier rift isn't something you can open together."

"City Lord Huyan still has a show to put on, a show for the two cities of the Southwest."

"When we walk out of this tent, we'll be 'enemies'!"

"Everyone must remember this, lest we be exposed in a few days."

"As for the subsequent plan, I will direct you step by step."

As soon as Li Guanqi said this, the others who were still probing retracted their power.

No one dared to underestimate this young man, Li Guanqi.

The others nodded repeatedly, and Huyan Lie was also satisfied, having boarded their ship.

Huyan Lie cupped his fist and smiled.

"Brothers, if a real fight breaks out later, please don't focus on killing the people of my North Gate City."

The others laughed in response.

Chu Yuan and Chen Ce were even more shocked.

They had thought that North Gate City would not hesitate to cooperate with the two Southwest cities.

They never expected this to be the situation...

At the same time, inside the West City Lord's Mansion.

The mansion was dimly lit, and hundreds of men in black gathered in the hall.

Two middle-aged men stood at the front, one of them waving his hand.

"Go! Leave no one alive in the Xia Lin City Lord's Mansion!"

Whoosh!!

Just as the sound of footsteps rang out, someone hurriedly flew over.

"City Lord! Something's happened..."

The man frowned and said in a deep voice.

"What could be so important that it has to be said now?"

That person stepped forward and transmitted his voice: "City Lord, Huyan Lie has secretly come to the mansion! He's waiting for you in the main hall, saying he has important intelligence to tell you!"

Zhao Mu looked at the man beside him and said in a deep voice.

"Why would Huyan Lie come at this time?"

Lou Fuchang, as the Lord of West City, was personally joining forces with Zhao Mu tonight to directly destroy Xia Lin City.

He didn't expect Huyan Lie to interfere at this time...

"Go, let's see what he has to say first."

"If Huyan Lie has no value, just kill him directly in the mansion!"

Zhao Mu frowned and said in a deep voice.

"Huyan Lie's strength isn't weak, don't alert him. I'll go with you and see what he wants to say."

Li Guanqi didn't know that his unintentional move had resolved a huge crisis for Xia Lin City.

After Chu Yuan and Chen Ce watched Huyan Lie leave, they also left together.

As soon as the two left, Xiahou Cang gasped for breath.

Li Guanqi was also the same, his back soaked with cold sweat.

Li Guanqi turned to look at the man and said in a deep voice.

"What's going on?"

Xiahou Cang looked back at the rift behind him, his eyes filled with fear as he said.

"Just now, the power of those people almost broke open the barrier I created."

"The Azure Jade Gourd... has a slight crack. I'm afraid it won't last long."

Li Guanqi let out a long breath.

"It doesn't matter, the secret realm will open in a few days."

"But we must prepare for war. I feel that the two cities of the Southwest have been quiet recently, which is a bit abnormal!"

"Let's go back first."

Xiahou Cang nodded, waving his hand to throw out a formation plate, enveloping the camp.

And Chu Yuan and Chen Ce did not separate, going directly to the East City Mansion for a secret chat.

In the middle of the night, Li Guanqi suddenly woke up from his room!

He had been sending messages to Huyan Lie but had received no reply.

"Not good..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Guanqi immediately flashed towards Xiahou Cang's room.

Bang bang bang bang!!

"City Lord Xiahou, get up!! Quick!!"

A burst of panic came from the room, along with the rustling sound of putting on clothes.

"Wait... wait a moment."

Knock knock knock!!!

"Hurry up!! There's no time!!"

"The Southwest is uniting with North Gate City to destroy us!!"

As soon as he said this, the man in the room ran to open the door without even putting on his shoes.

"What!! What do you mean?"

Before Xiahou Cang could figure out what was happening, the sky above was suddenly enveloped by thirteen formation flags!!

In an instant, the City Lord's Mansion, spanning over a thousand zhang, was enveloped by an incomparably powerful spatial barrier force.

The crimson barrier formation screen was extremely thick, and figures in black robes continuously soared into the air.

Li Guanqi unhesitatingly took out two jade slips and said in a deep voice.

"Come quickly to support us! The plan has changed, the Southwest has united with North Gate City for a surprise attack!!"

Li Guanqi once again took out Huyan Lie's jade slip to transmit a message, but there was still no response...

Li Guanqi's face became somewhat gloomy.

Without thinking, Huyan Lie had betrayed them!

Thinking of this... Li Guanqi said with a gloomy face.

"City Lord Chu, City Lord Chen, please directly take people to destroy North Gate!!!"

Xiahou Cang's expression hardened, and cultivators wearing red-golden robes continuously flew out from the mansion.

Xiahou Cang glared at the sky, roaring with an angry voice.

"Huyan, you old dog!!!"

Turning to look at Li Guanqi, he said coldly: "Will Chu Yuan and Chen Ce come to help us?"

Li Guanqi narrowed his eyes and nodded, saying in a deep voice.

"Unless they also want to die, they will definitely help us!"

Yu Su, having dressed, walked out of the room.

Xiahou Cang said in a deep voice: "Take the child and leave first!"

Yu Su wanted to say something, but Xiahou Cang directly pushed her back into the room.

A great battle was about to break out!
