Despite observing the celestial signs, they were unable to locate the site where the Prince of Zhenbei planned to massacre the living.
There was nothing unusual about it anywhere.
The nine-tailed celestial fox suppressed its alluring charm, saying, "He's racing against time with us."
His plan was to secretly finish refining it, and then it would be impossible for us to stop him.
"At that time, only by killing Mu Nanzhi can we stop the Prince of Zhenbei from being promoted to the second rank."
"but."
"Mu Nanzhi seems to be with the Great Variable. If you want to kill her, you sorcerers should do it yourselves."
That person possesses extraordinary luck; I can't afford to offend him.
"By the way, do you think the Supervisor knew about the Prince of Zhenbei's plot?"
If he knew, why was he so indifferent?
I suddenly suspect that the fact that Mu Nanzhi was walking with that person was because the supervisor was secretly pushing things along.
Xu Pingfeng sneered, "You'd better keep guessing."
Once you guess his plan, Heaven will sense it and the Supervisor will come.
"I'm sure I'll find a way to get away. As for you, you can forget about getting that fox tail."
The woman in the white dress was indeed wary and didn't say anything more about the matter of the supervisor.
"We must find the location of the Zhenbei King's planned blood sacrifice as soon as possible."
The woman in the white dress nodded. "That's what I think too."
Chuzhou City.
At dusk, the setting sun shone like blood.
At the residence of Zheng Xinghuai, the Provincial Governor of Chuzhou, the family was having dinner.
Zheng Xinghuai had two sons. The eldest son pursued an official career and, thanks to Zheng Xinghuai's guidance, earned an excellent reputation and had a promising future.
The second son was a spoiled brat who spent his days hunting hawks and fighting dogs, doing absolutely nothing.
Furthermore, because Zheng Xinghuai was very strict with his family, this second son dared not do anything to bully men or women, and he couldn't even be a good playboy.
A good-for-nothing who accomplishes nothing.
Today, Young Master Zheng was drinking at a brothel when he got into a fight with a military officer and was severely beaten up.
Zheng Xinghuai reprimanded his second son, speaking sternly and harshly.
The second young master Zheng was unconvinced and said aggrievedly, "Father, I only went to a brothel."
"That scoundrel started the trouble, not me. What did I do wrong?"
The daughter-in-law said, "Father, I want to go back to my parents' home. Next month is my father's 60th birthday."
Before Zheng Xinghuai could speak, his second son waved his hands repeatedly.
"Are you crazy? The barbarians outside have been causing a ruckus lately, and Chuzhou City is so close to the border."
What if you recklessly leave the city and encounter barbarian cavalry on the way?
Chapter 367 At the end of the warlock's realm, who stands at the peak? A single glance, and all illusions vanish into nothingness!
Upon hearing his son scolding his daughter-in-law, Zheng Xinghuai instantly flew into a rage, feeling utterly disappointed in his son.
"You cowardly wretch, how could I have given birth to such a useless piece of trash as you?"
He was both disappointed and helpless with his second son, feeling that the other was utterly worthless.
A man in light armor rushed into the inner hall in a panic, carrying a horn bow on his back and a long sword at his waist.
"Li Han, what's the matter that's so urgent?"
"My lord, the garrison troops have suddenly entered the city for some unknown reason and are gathering the people. We don't know what they're up to."
Zheng Xinghuai was taken aback and felt completely bewildered by the situation.
Why are the garrison troops not fighting against the demons and barbarians, not stationed outside the city, and instead gathering the people for what purpose?
"Where will they assemble, and who will lead them?"
"Currently, only the army from the south has successfully entered the city; the armies from the other three directions... seem to have encountered obstacles."
"The army in the south city is gathering the people, led by the Commander-in-Chief, Duke Protector of the Nation, Que Yongxiu."
Zheng Xinghuai put down his chopsticks, stood up and said, "Prepare the horses, I'm going to take a look."
Go and inform the others to assemble at the south side of the city.
Zheng Xinghuai, accompanied by his "guest advisors," rode his horse toward the southern city.
North of the city.
One mile outside the city gate.
Nearly eight thousand soldiers marched in orderly steps toward the north gate of Chuzhou.
"Hurry! Run faster, everyone!"
The leading deputy general, along with several officers and a few secret agents of the Prince of Huai dressed in black robes, urged them anxiously.
These dozen or so men on horseback were clearly different in demeanor from the eight thousand soldiers.
Because none of the eight thousand soldiers made any unnecessary movements.
Their gazes were firm and unwavering, fixed on the distance ahead, and they didn't even seem to be breathing.
They listened to whatever the deputy general said.
Let them run wildly, running tirelessly.
The deputy general surnamed Wang anxiously said to the man in black beside him, "The Heavenly Gang Secret Envoy!"
"how!"
"Can we break this damned formation?!"
The secret agent of the Prince of Huai, named Tian Gang, was anxiously fiddling with the compass in his hand.
"No problem, no problem at all!"
"The direction we're heading is correct!"
Lieutenant Wang no longer cared about the other party's identity as a spy. "It's too late!"
"His Highness the Prince of Huai instructed that this gathering must be carried out simultaneously, otherwise there will be great chaos!"
"Before we set off, we all made a solemn pledge; this matter concerns our lives!"
The Heavenly Gang spies cursed, "Damn it, you made a pledge, but we've all been placed under the spell of the Witch God Cult!"
"If this great undertaking fails, we will all explode and die in an instant."
"I'm even more anxious than you!"
Wang, the deputy general under the command of Chuzhou Commander-in-Chief and Duke of Protectorate Que Yongxiu, was responsible for gathering the people in the north of the city.
Then, using the corpse soldiers behind him, he killed 50,000 civilians in the north of the city.
The northern part of the city is close to the border, so there are only 50,000 people there.
The largest population was in the south of the city, numbering a full 120,000.
As for the south of the city, Que Yongxiu was in charge of it himself.
Deputy General Wang received the easiest task, requiring the fewest civilians to be gathered.
These arrogant and fierce soldiers firmly believed that by killing these civilians, the Prince of Zhenbei would break through to the second rank and permanently resolve the border troubles in the north.
Vice General Wang successfully obtained the eight thousand corpse soldiers, but encountered a major problem on the way.
They suddenly triggered a strange formation less than a mile from the North Gate.
Everyone was clearly walking towards the city gate, but the next moment they appeared a mile behind them!
It's like being trapped in a maze, just like in the legends.
The secret agent, Tian Gang, was a sorcerer assigned to the north of the city to prevent the undead soldiers from causing trouble.
All he knew was that the group had fallen into a strange formation.
As for how to crack it, there is still no clue.
The army advanced and arrived once again at the place where the formation had been triggered last time.
"stop!"
"Stop it all!"
The secret agents of the Heavenly Gang shouted nervously.
"The atmosphere here is abnormal, do not go any further!"
"If you go in again, you'll still be sent back to the north."
