Chapter 3362: [Kunlun Capital] Falls (23) [Storm Ruins] Wen Duo Enters [9th Prison]
Chapter 3362: The Fall of [Kunlun City] (23) - [Storm Ruins]... Wen Duo enters [Ninth Prison]
"Take a leave?" Yu Huatian put down the document, a little surprised.
"Yes, Lord Zhao is taking a month off."
"I understand. Go ahead." Yu Huatian's face showed no emotion. He waved his hand and asked people to leave.
He couldn't really control Zhao Huaian...even though they all belonged to the same line of [Saint Imperial Concubine]. Even when Zhao Huaian wasn't around, Yu Huatian would feel more at ease.
Moreover, compared to Zhao Huaian’s sudden departure, there are other things that Yu Huatian is very concerned about.
This is a piece of information about [Storm Ruins] - recently [Storm Ruins], one of the major strongholds of the human race [foreign land], is secretly gathering a large number of independent cultivators, and the soldiers of [Storm Ruins] are also frequently mobilized... It seems that there will be a big move.
The owner of this [Storm Ruins] is none other than Prince Tianxiang, one of the four great princes of the [Netherworld].
"Is His Royal Highness planning to fight a battle with the Great Lord of the [Witch God Empire]?"
The area where [Storm Ruins] is located is extremely rich in assets. In the past, the [Alliance] and the [Empire] had already fought a war to compete for this fertile land. The war lasted for nearly a year and ended with the demarcation of the [Taiwang Line] border. Then Prince [Tianxiang] was appointed to take office.
Despite this, on the opposite side of [Storm Ruins], there are two imperial lords who have been eyeing them covetously, and the two sides have been in constant friction.
"Pay close attention to the actions of Storm Ruins and report twice a day."
"As ordered!"
……
……
[Storm Ruins] is quite prosperous, with the number of monks coming and going every day, even more than 1.5 times that of [White Steel City] - but despite such prosperity, the infrastructure of [Storm Ruins] is far inferior, and is even inferior to the next-level human strongholds.
Abandoning all pleasure and comfort, everything is compromised for war and defense... From a distance, it looks like a beast armed to the limit! Even the City Lord's Mansion of [Storm Ruins] is built from a huge spiritual boat, which can set sail at any time under the order of the City Lord.
The son of the city lord [Tianxiang] is a martial artist. Everything in [Storm Ruins] is paved with military merit. Living in [Storm Ruins], no one will starve to death as long as they are willing to go out of the city to hunt alien species.
But unlike the local customs that highly worship martial arts, Prince Tianxiang looks more like a scholar... He is frail and sickly, always carrying medicine bottles with him, and cannot go out without two female doctors by his side.
In the study room filled with the fragrance of paper books and incense, a female doctor was grinding medicinal materials, while another female doctor was carefully boiling a decoction.
[Tianxiang] The prince was wearing a white fur coat. Even in the hottest weather, there seemed to be a hint of coldness between his brows - he even held a leather-wrapped heater in his arms.
At this time, the commander of the garrison of [Storm Ruins] was reporting on today's work... Together with the commander-in-chief, there were officials in charge of internal affairs of [Storm Ruins], and the commander of the [Storm Guards].
[Storm Guards] are the prince's private soldiers. In the early days, they followed Prince [Tianxiang] out of [Netherworld]. Now in [Storm Ruins], they are like royal guards.
"Your Highness, the two great lords on the other side seem to have noticed something. In the past few days, a lot of [Alien] armies have been added frequently in the border area. We have mobilized so loudly, the other side will definitely not ignore it." The legion commander frowned and said, "Your Highness has been asking me to mobilize the army and recruit casual cultivators, but he has not told me about his next plan... I am almost dying of anxiety!"
"You are really anxious." Prince Tianxiang raised his eyes.
A pair of beautiful eyes, but the prince seemed to have been ill for a long time, his face was very bloody, and even his lips were a sickly light purple... He finished speaking and coughed lightly a few times.
The female doctor who was boiling medicine early in the morning hurried forward to help him calm down.
"Prince, drink the medicine first." The legion commander said helplessly upon seeing this.
"Coughing, coughing, I'm used to it." A hint of mockery appeared on the pale face of the [Tianxiang] prince, "If I don't cough a few times a day, I'll doubt whether I'm a living person anymore."
The other two people who were kneeling did not move, but the legion commander took the initiative to bring the medicine soup, handed it to the female doctor, and asked her to feed it to the prince.
After two sips of the medicine, Prince Tianxiang's face regained some color. He wiped the corners of his mouth and said, "You are actually very anxious, and the other party is also anxious. It's not a loss."
The legion commander could only sulk.
"Don't worry, Liangchou." Prince Tianxiang waved his hand, "We don't really want to fight with the two opposite sides."
"Huh?" Legion Commander... Liang Chou was stunned. You are not going to fight but making such a big fuss. Are you planning to hold a military parade?
[Tianxiang] The prince pointed with his finger, and the female doctor helped to fetch an exquisite animal skin map from the table beside him and spread it out with a paperweight.
Prince Tianxiang stretched out his hand and tapped a corner of the map, and said slowly: "I have sent the Storm Guards here, just wait for the news."
"This is..." Liang Chou opened his mouth wide, and then a look of shock flashed in his eyes, and then his eyes were filled with ecstasy, "Prince, isn't this the territory of Lord Dragon Star?"
"That's also our real target." Prince Tianxiang smiled and said, "Lord Longxing was captured alive by the Alliance and will be tried... and executed soon. I have secretly asked people to spread this news in Lord Longxing's territory, and it should have an effect."
"That's great!" Liang Chou slapped his thigh. "The [Witch God Empire] might be afraid of a new lord, and the alien warriors in the territory will also fight for it! This [Dragon Star] Lord has never been good at management, and has always suppressed by force! It was fine when he was here, but now that the news of his execution spreads, this place will inevitably be in turmoil... No, no, no, the surrounding territories will not turn a blind eye, and will definitely nibble away at it before the empire makes a decision!"
The legion commander became more and more excited, as if he was already on the battlefield, giving orders.
"It's just that..." Liang Chou suddenly frowned, "Lord Dragon Star's territory is in the heart of the Empire. Even if we can take it down, I'm afraid it will be difficult to defend it, and it will also trigger the Taiwang Line Agreement. The Alliance may..."
The scholar next to him chuckled and said, "The commander is too upright. When did the prince ever say that he wanted to conquer this place?"
"What do you mean?" Liang Chou frowned.
The scholar said calmly: "Storm Ruins has never invaded the territory of the Sorcerer God Empire. The turmoil in the territory of the Dragon Star Lord is just an internal strife... It is the cannibalism among the greedy imperial nobles."
"I see." Liang Chou slapped his head, "Let's fight a big autumn wind, right? This is good!"
"Go and get busy." Prince Tianxiang waved his hand.
Liang Chou prepared to leave excitedly, and the scholar also took his leave... Only the commander of the Storm Guards was left - he was also the guardian of Prince Tianxiang.
A strong man in the middle stage of the emperor level, who is particularly good at assassination.
"Have you found out?"
[Tianxiang] The prince took out a letter from his arms and asked softly.
This letter was sent to him, and it contained some not-so-good things - about his elder brother, the Crown Prince of Tianlu, such as privately making the Holy Emperor's robe, secretly investigating the Holy Emperor's illness, etc...
"Not yet." Commander Mu Yun shook his head. "The letter must have passed through many hands before it was finally delivered here. We have been tracing back and investigating, and finally the clue was cut off by a medicinal material merchant... Could this be a fabrication?"
As his most trusted confidant, Mu Yun had already read the contents of the letter.
"Brother..." The [Tianxiang] prince groaned, "He may not dare to investigate the disease privately, but it is possible to get a piece of clothing in private to satisfy his fantasy."
"It seems that this informer wants to cause a quarrel between the two princes." Mu Yun said in a deep voice, "Could it be the imperial concubine's people?"
"If she wanted to do something like this, she didn't have to wait until now." The [Tianxiang] prince shook his head, "But I really haven't returned to [Youming] heaven for a long time... If I don't go back, it will seem a bit unfilial."
"What does the prince mean?" Mu Yun asked tentatively.
[Tianxiang] The prince calmed down and said, "After Liang Chou and the others start their action, let's go back... just keep a low profile. Since we are going home, there is no need to bring many people... just get 30,000 or 50,000 people."
"..."
——【Storm Guards】The full complement is only 50,000 people, okay, my prince...
Mu Yun nodded.
The big move by [Storm Ruins] is to cover up the extortion plan of [Dragon Star] Lord's territory... and during this extortion operation, the prince also quietly returned - I'm afraid returning is the prince's real intention?
"I haven't been back for a long time." The Crown Prince of Tianxiang smiled and said, "I heard that Kunlun City has been very lively recently. Human geniuses are popping up like crazy. It must be really lively."
……
……
……
……
The four wandering gods endured the blazing flames and struggled to resist with the Netherworld Energy in their bodies, and came to a dark area.
"Finally, we are close to the prison gate and can feel more comfortable."
"Hurry up!"
The four wandering gods did not dare to delay... It was not yet time for the prison gate to be opened. They could only communicate with the guards of the prison gate through secret methods, explain the situation, and then take the temporary passage, commonly known as opening the small door to go in.
Soon, a small door only two meters high slowly emerged from the black soil, and a high-level wandering god appeared from inside the door.
Without much obstruction, after explaining the situation, the demands of the four wandering gods were quickly agreed to.
At the same time, behind a slope not far from the small prison gate, the young man... Gu Ze poked his head out, biting the nutrient solution while thinking quickly.
"Tongzi, is there any way for me to go in as well?"
"You can use your merit points to redeem a limited-time simulation." The great redemption system [Devil Star] said patiently at this time: "In the simulation state, you can enter the [Ninth Hell] just like Youshen."
"This is good!" Gu Ze's eyes lit up!
Although hunting wandering gods can earn you a lot of merit points, it is not easy to hunt wandering gods... and wandering gods are not easy to find, especially during the day. Gu Ze came to [Kunlun City] during the peak tourist season of this [Purple Sky Cup], but [Kunlun City] was overcrowded even at night, making it inconvenient to move.
If you can enter the [Ninth Hell] and hunt directly in the base camp of the wandering gods, wouldn't it be like picking up money everywhere?
"Okay host, you have spent 10,000 merit points this time and gained 10 hours of simulation status."
hiss--! !
The boy gasped on the spot.
So expensive!
……
Just as the four wandering gods entered and the senior wandering god guarding the small gate was about to close the small prison door, a thin figure came running hurriedly from a distance.
Is he a black wandering god?
The senior wandering god frowned, but still stopped.
"Brother, wait for me, I haven't gone in yet!" Hei Youshen panted, "They ran too fast, they didn't even wait for me!"
"Are you with them?" The senior wandering god asked in confusion, "Why are you the only one here? Where is your partner?"
The parade gods are always paired with black and white, and they always act in pairs. Gu Ze already knew this, and said calmly: "The other one stayed behind, there is something..."
“Oh…” The senior wandering god nodded and didn’t ask any more questions—mainly because the Netherworld aura on this Black God was too positive!
"Hurry in!"
"Thank you, brother!"
The senior wandering god waved his hand impatiently and chased them away.
……
"Is this the legendary [Ninth Hell]?"
After passing through the small prison gate, Gu Ze appeared under a small earth slope the next moment, with a real cold wind swirling around him... Not sure if it was because of the simulation state, but Gu Ze did not feel uncomfortable at this moment, the cold energy did not erode his body, and he even felt a sense of comfort and coolness.
He climbed up the hillside carefully, and an extremely huge city in the distance instantly came into his sight... This city was built on the bank of a river that ran through the earth, and above the sky, black and white shadows flowed continuously.
"The City of Wandering Gods..." Gu Ze muttered to himself, "...a low-level Wandering God is 500 points, a mid-level Wandering God is 1000 points! A high-level Wandering God is 3000!"
As long as he kills three high-level wandering gods and one intermediate wandering god, he can continue to mimic for 10 hours!
"This time we are really rich, rich!"
……
……
Midnight, in the artificial garden of [Qinglong District]...a small pavilion by the lake.
A beam of strong light moved rapidly in the darkness and instantly shone into the small pavilion... At this moment, in the pavilion, the cheek of the noble Prince Tianlu could not help but twitch.
Wen Duo came over with a high-power flashlight and a large yellow backpack on his back.
——This is definitely intentional.
The Crown Prince of Tianlu had a gloomy expression on his face. "Mr. Wen is really punctual. He said it was midnight, not a minute late."
"Prince, thank you for keeping me waiting." Wen Duo then turned off the flashlight.
It’s too bad. If I continue to do that, the prince will probably scold me.
"What are you carrying?" asked Prince Tianlu with a frown.
"These are all the things that girl liked when she was alive, such as food and clothes." Wen Duo took off his backpack casually, unzipped it, and poured a pile of things on the stone table in the pavilion. "Here, Prince, check it. I told you, Prince, you can check everything."
Indeed, they were just some snacks, clothes... and even a small hair accessory. The [Tianlu] prince frowned and waved his hand, saying, "Don't waste time, put it away... You don't have much time, you must be released from prison before dawn."
At night, it is the time for the parade of gods to work, and the [Ninth Hell] will seem empty - it is more convenient to bring Wen Duo in at this time. As long as we leave before the prison gate opens at dawn, we should... should be fine.
"I have already told the judge in the prison." The Crown Prince [Tianlu] suddenly said, "The ghost of the woman you are looking for has been found. But you have to be mentally prepared, because she...is not in a good situation."
"What? In this [Ninth Hell], the ghosts can still be divided into different levels?" Wen Duo sneered, "Being a human is tiring, so will you be tired after you die?"
The Crown Prince of Tianlu frowned and said, "Things are not what you think. The situation in the Ninth Hell is quite complicated. The ghosts are indeed divided into different levels, but they are not what you think... Anyway, you will know when you see it. Let's go!"
[Prince Tianlu] waved his hand, and instantly a crack as high as a person opened up on the water surface outside the pavilion... A pure yin energy erupted instantly.
The wandering gods can only go through the prison gate, so His Royal Highness the Crown Prince naturally doesn't need to... However, if he tears the gate open privately and enters like this, Jia Junnuo will most likely sense it, so he will need someone to help hide in the [Ninth Prison].
The helper that Prince Tianlu was looking for was naturally Cui Jue, the judge of the City of Wandering Gods.
……
Judge Cui of the Ninth Hell was not a stranger during his lifetime, but a general in the Netherworld - at the same time, Cui Jue was even one of the instructors of the Crown Prince of Tianlu, so they had a very close relationship.
"I've met the prince."
On the other side of the crack, a middle-aged man in a white robe and a black hat was seen, bowing slightly and waiting.
"Teacher, you don't have to be so polite." The [Tianlu] prince held out his hand and said, "This time, Tianlu is troubling the teacher."
Cui Jue did not say anything about this, but suddenly said: "The Guanyin in Lingshan has been building a temple these days, and the Saint Lady went to help. I didn't do anything."
Prince Tianlu frowned but said nothing. He had already known about the matter of Lingshan Guanyin on the day of the birthday banquet of the Holy Concubine... but since Wen Duo was here, he did not intend to discuss it too much.
"Let's go." Prince Tianlu said directly, "We must get back before dawn."
Cui Jue nodded, glanced at Wen Duo casually, and nodded slightly, which was considered an acquaintance - the Prince of Tianlu did not tell him the identity of this person, but only said that he was doing a small favor for a friend.
"Please follow me."
……
……
……
……
Under the ground, there is a palace that is more than Geometric in size... The pillars are coiled like dragons, like a forest.
In the dark hall, a figure, wearing a black robe and a black hat, holding a lantern, walked slowly - after a while, he stopped.
At this time, people dressed similarly appeared from all directions. Soon, as many as eight people gathered in the depths of the hall.
One of them said in a deep voice, "Everyone, let's get started... How are you going to help Lord Qianjie with what he asked?"
Among the eight people...Saint Lord Wu Ding frowned secretly.
This group of guys really plan to break into the Heavenly Prison!
"I can secretly mobilize the guards on the sixth floor of the prison, but Lord Dragon Star is imprisoned on the bottom six floors, so I can only adapt to the situation."
"Let me handle the portal to the [Foreign Land]..."
"A large number of law enforcement officers from [Nantianmen] have gathered at the [Zixiao Cup] site, so there is actually no problem."
"I'll be the first one to respond... I can also help keep an eye on the Xianting military department."
Saint Lord Wu Ding nodded secretly as he listened. Although he was somewhat reluctant, after listening to these guys' speeches, he felt that there was no need to worry about not accomplishing great things... There shouldn't be any problem, right?
As they were talking, everyone's eyes unexpectedly fell on Wu Ding.
He could only say calmly: "I don't have as many skills as you do. If the Lord of Thousand Tribulations doesn't mind, let me follow you and help you."
"Brother Wu is righteous!"
"This is good!"
Saint Lord Wu Ding's face suddenly turned dark.
——TM, you agreed not to call me by my real name when we meet in person?
