The king will never go to court

Chapter 249 Chapter 258: Human life is worthless
The sky was full of dragon fire, and there were constant cries and cries below it.After a poisonous rain, even if Huo Long'er tried his best to swallow the dragon fire, it still couldn't stop it.

Looking at the sky full of flames in the capital city, the Jin-Chu coalition forces guarding outside the city fell into deep panic.As martial arts experts, although everyone from the Jujianmen and the Feng family looked dignified, they did not dare to take another half step forward.

At this moment, the sky above the city of Kyoto is filled with poison and fire.Facing the calcination of the dragon fire, the poisonous mist in the rain gradually disappeared.

But the screams under the dragon fire still made everyone inside and outside the city shudder.

After a busy night, Huo Long'er lowered his head, sat on the stone steps, and sighed, "Madam, are you alright?"

"Miss Huilong, Mrs. Tai has been resting in her room."

A guard guarding the backyard said softly, and several guards on the side also cast concerned eyes here.

This night, their personal guards have been guarding here.

"It would be great if the master was here. I don't have to be so tired." While Huo Long'er was muttering to himself, he smelled a fragrance.

Not long after, there were two maids carrying some breakfast food, looking at those food boxes, Huo Long'er was swept away, and the look in his eyes glowed again.

"You guys are really sensible."

Huo Long'er hurriedly hugged all the food boxes in front of him, opened the food boxes very skillfully, and began to eat.

As soon as he took a big bite of the pastry, Huo Long'er raised his head slightly, looked at the guards standing beside him, and said softly, "You guys also go to have some breakfast, I'll just take care of you here."

At the same time, Huo Long'er ordered one of the maids to deliver a food box to Mrs. Wu Wangtai's resting room.

Although after a night of calcination by the dragon fire, the poisonous rainwater evaporated completely.But Huo Long'er didn't know what other methods the enemies outside the city had, so he could only let the guards of Prince Wu's Mansion rest for a while.

"Thank you, Miss Long."

The guards bowed their hands to Huo Long'er, and then slowly exited the backyard.

When Huo Long'er finished his breakfast, Dongfang Yubai also caught everyone's eyes.A new day finally arrived, and the people who had cried all night still gathered in more than ten streets outside the Wu Palace.

With black heads, many people's voices are still hoarse, and their eyes are completely red and swollen.But the last hope for everyone to survive is in the palace in front of them, and everyone hopes that King Wu can turn the tide.

Not long after, the two maids who delivered breakfast to Mrs. Wu Wangtai retreated out of the room respectfully, and carefully and gently closed the door, with an extremely respectful expression.

The moment the door was closed, the two maids let out a sigh of relief.Although the mind was extremely nervous and excited, the excitement in the eyes of the two maids did not escape the corner of Huo Long'er's eyes.

Soon, Huo Long'er's melancholy expression disappeared without a trace, and the light in his eyes was also very bright.The depression that had been suppressed in my heart all night was completely released at this moment.

She got up hastily and rushed to the door.

As soon as his right hand touched the door, his whole body froze for a moment.Nervous, restless, anxious emotions welled up in my heart.

After taking a deep breath to calm down his nervousness, Huo Long'er gently pushed open the half-covered door and walked into the room slowly.

Mrs. Wu Wangtai had already been helped to rest on the bed by the maids, and she was lying quietly in the inner room at the moment.

In the living room outside, a young man dressed in brocade clothes was quietly leaning on the soft couch, his eyes were quietly looking at the ray of green light on his fingertips.

When looking at the young man behind the screen, Huo Long'er's originally suppressed mood was completely relieved, and the uneasiness in his heart completely dissipated.

Looking at the young man in brocade clothes not far away, Huo Long'er could not stop the tears from overflowing his eyes, and said timidly, "Master, you, you are finally back."

After just a glance, Huo Long'er lowered his head, not daring to look at Xie Wufeng's expression again.

In Huo Long'er's eyes, before the master left, he handed over everything in the mansion to her.In the end, she still didn't take good care of his wife, which frightened her.

Hearing the tension and uneasiness in Huo Long'er's heart, after looking at the green glow on his fingertips, Xie Wufeng waved his hand, and the green poison wrapped in vigor disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared in the room.

"Okay, don't worry. Am I here?"

Xie Wufeng's tone was calm, and he couldn't hear the slightest censure.

Half a month ago, Xie Wufeng went south with the army of the Qian Kingdom, and wanted to completely eliminate the Yan Kingdom in one go.I never thought that such a weird thing would happen in the capital.

With his current strength, he can only turn the vicinity of Kaijing into a "no man's land".At the same time, he went south alone again, destroying the illusion of the prince of Qian, worried that the person behind him, Xie Wufeng, still could not be found.

Originally, I wanted to use the soul search technique, but in the end I thought of such a trivial matter, and finally gave up.He wanted to see who these people were hiding in the dark.

"It seems that this world of martial arts is still underestimated. The half-step heavenly and human realm warriors here have such strength."

Xie Wufeng thought to himself, along with that ray of green light dissipated, there was also a broken rune in his palm emitting a faint stream of light.

"Master, what should we do now? The people all over the city were infected by yesterday's green rain, and they are probably poisoned."

Huo Long'er was protected by the fire of the real dragon, and was not infected by the poison emitted by "Changhui".However, warriors and ordinary people in the capital city can only suffer from it.

Last night, it was not only the heart-piercing shouts near King Wu's Mansion, but also a large number of patients gathered in pharmacies and clinics all over the city. Facing the swarming people in the city, ordinary doctors had no choice but to look at the patients in front of them. Keep whining.

Even some doctors tried to seal the patient's acupoints through breath, but it didn't help, and it couldn't stop the poison from spreading in the patient's body.

"Does Yunan City want to use the whole city as hostages?"

The corner of Xie Wufeng's mouth raised slightly, and the index finger of his right hand tapped the handrail beside him lightly, without making any sound.

"They're so hateful." Huo Long'er pouted at the side with an angry expression on his face, wishing to turn everyone outside the city into a "barbecue".

"It's because of my lack of strength that I let..." Huo Long'er wanted to continue selling miserably in front of Xie Wufeng, but before she could continue speaking, Xie Wufeng gently raised his hand to interrupt her.

"You have done a good job, although the last bit of power of the rune was destroyed by your dragon fire. But it was also to save everyone in the city."

Last night, when he returned to the capital city, Xie Wufeng had already seen the clues from the remnants of dragon fire in the air and the cracks on the broken runes.

Therefore, when he returned to the mansion, he did not summon everyone immediately, but quietly came to his mother's side, and slowly smoothed her frowning brows.

Huo Long'er lowered her head even lower. She knew that her dragon fire would damage the protective formation, but for the safety of everyone in the city, she could only destroy the poison hidden in the rain as soon as possible.

"You're tired from staying with Mrs. Tai these days, go down and rest." Xie Wufeng looked at Huo Long'er who had lost weight again, and said with some heartache.

"Master, I'm not tired.."

"obedient."

"Oh..." Huo Long'er withdrew reluctantly.

About half an hour later, Mrs. Wu Wangtai woke up from her sleep.Seeing her son for the first time, Mrs. Tai thought it was a dream, but when she realized it was really her son.

Mrs. Wu Wangtai shed tears that had been suppressed for a long time, and choked up, "Feng'er, why are you back? Do you know how dangerous the capital is now?"

"Mom, I know"

"Now that so many people are staring at our palace, how can you come back?"

"Mother, don't worry."

Mrs. Wu Wangtai held Xie Wufeng's arm tightly with both hands, and cried, "Go, it's too dangerous here. You are no match for those people."

Xie Wufeng patted the back of his mother's hand lightly with his left hand, and said in a low voice, "Mother, don't worry. It will be fine, we will be fine."

"I've heard that outside the city are the armies of Jin and Chu, as well as people from Yunan City who sealed off their families. This time it's different from the past. It's different."

In order not to let his mother continue to worry about him, Xie Wufeng laughed softly, "Mother, it's really okay, they can't enter the capital city. We have a protective formation, they can't enter."

"Can you stop them?" Mrs. Wu Wangtai didn't quite believe it. After all, her son was only 19 years old, and she was still a child in her heart. The worry in her eyes increased instead of diminishing.

"Ah."

Xie Wufeng nodded heavily, looking at his mother in this life calmly with his eyes, trying to show a warm smile on his face.

Very bright, very peaceful, giving people an unusually intimate feeling.This is the look that Xie Wufeng has never shown in front of outsiders.

Mrs. Wu Wangtai looked at her son's very confident expression, and the uneasy thoughts in her heart settled down a little.

After having breakfast together, Xie Wufeng and Mrs. Wu Wangtai took a walk in the garden by Crescent Lake.

This place is newly opened by the royal guards, not far from the hospital, separated by a lush bamboo sea, surrounded by a circular wooden corridor.

Xie Wufeng and Mrs. Tai walked side by side on the wooden corridor, followed by two personal guards and four maids.

Hearing that King Wu has returned to the mansion, the guards wanted to come to see him together.However, when everyone got the news, the prince told them to take a good rest first.

And the elders of the major sects, the ancestors of the aristocratic families, and the court officials who came to the mansion also received the news at this moment.

But when they would be summoned by King Wu, those personal guards did not give them the exact time.Fortunately, Prince Wu's Mansion has been renovated, and the original barren courtyards have been rested. Under the leadership of the guards, every family and sect has a separate courtyard to rest.

"Go and rest, too, it's been hard for you these days."

Xie Wufeng knew that the Feng family in Yunan City led the Jin and Chu armies southward, and the guards of the Wangfu and the soldiers guarding the city in Kyoto could not stop them at all.

Therefore, there are two protective formations arranged by myself, one is the formation of the capital city, and the other is the formation of the palace.

It's just that he didn't expect that the half-step heavenly and human realm powerhouse carried such a strange treasure that it could penetrate those broken formation runes.

"My lord, the little ones are not tired."

"Go, I will need you to do things later, so I can't be exhausted." Xie Wufeng tilted his head slightly, still with a faint smile on his face, and walked forward together with Mrs. Wu Wangtai.

The morning breeze was blowing on the face, blowing the long hair at the temples, Xie Wufeng hoped that this could relieve his mother's nervousness.

Looking at her son's calm expression, Mrs. Wu Wangtai could only suppress the uneasiness in her heart.She knew that her son accompanied her for a walk on the lake to make her not worry.

The two guards behind had no choice but to bow their hands, bid farewell to the two kings of Wu, and left sideways from the maids.

Smelling the faint fragrance of flowers, Mrs. Wu Wangtai took a deep breath, and most of her tense body was relieved.

Xie Wufeng beside him rested his hands on the guardrail, looking at the sparkling lake below him.More than a dozen sword lights kept looming in his eyes.

"Mother, please stand a little later."

Xie Wufeng waved his hand and signaled the two maids to help Mrs. Wu Wangtai move a few steps back to the other side of the wooden corridor guardrail.

When they stood still, more than a dozen sword lights shot out from Xie Wufeng's eyes.

In an instant, more than ten sword lights rushed into Crescent Moon Lake and exploded more than ten waterspouts soaring into the sky.As a large amount of vitality surged at the bottom of the lake, the waterspout rushed to the sky with a powerful aura.

At the same time, the formation above the Prince Wu's Mansion was completely opened, and everyone could clearly see the broken formation runes above the capital, flickering on and off.

The martial arts masters resting in various courtyards in King Wu's Mansion turned their heads sideways and looked at the sky outside the window.Some people even walked out of the room, stood in the courtyard, and looked at the sky above their heads.

Outside the mansion, the gathered common people, the residences of major sects and the deep mansions of aristocratic families, many people opened their cold eyes and stared blankly at the sky above King Wu's mansion.

The sudden burst of energy from the side made Xie Wufeng's robe rattle, but the Mrs. Wu Wangtai and the others behind him stood in place safe and sound, not disturbed by any strong wind or breath.

"rise!"

Xie Wufeng only said one word, and slowly raised his right hand. Following the direction of his fingertips, more than a dozen water spouts rushed towards the void carrying a large amount of heaven and earth vitality.

More than a dozen waterspouts rose from the ground and rushed to the sky, connecting with the defensive formation above the city of Kyoto.A large amount of heaven and earth vitality hidden at the bottom of Crescent Lake was continuously poured into the defense formation along with the waterspout.

"This!"

"What happened to Prince Wu's Mansion!"

"This scene is too scary!"

The waterspout more than ten feet high caused the exclamation of the people outside the mansion. They didn't know what happened in Wu Wang's mansion, but looking at the waterspout soaring into the sky, some warriors who knew the formation were deeply amazed .

"With such a formation, it really takes an astonishing amount of heaven and earth vitality to repair it."

"Is this someone repairing the protective formation of the capital city? This is too incredible." A second-rank martial artist in a black black robe stood on a high restaurant near the Wu Palace, with a horrified look in his eyes .

There were more than a dozen warriors standing behind them. They wanted to take advantage of the chaos to make the capital city even more chaotic. Unexpectedly, under the power of their family's treasure "Eternal Glory", the protective formation of the capital city could still survive.

Let them even more unexpected things happen in front of them.

With the continuous influx of vitality from heaven and earth, the originally dilapidated runes of the defensive formation once again exude brilliance.

Thinking that more than a dozen waterspouts were connected, they began to spread rapidly to the surroundings, and the broken runes that shrouded the entire city were revived again.

The streamer on it is more eye-catching than before it was broken.Immediately, it disappeared into the depths of everyone's eyes.

"Gone?!"

Mrs. Wu Wangtai has been staring at the sky.Huo Long'er and the half-step Heavenly Human Realm powerhouses in Yunan City were agitated before, and she had been standing on the porch, watching anxiously.

Xie Wufeng turned his head and said with a smile, "Mother, don't worry." At the same time, he lowered his right hand lightly, following Xie Wufeng's guidance, and under the sky, more than a dozen waterspouts poured out like waterfalls pounding the sky. Crescent Lake.

The water curtain of more than ten feet fell from the sky, splashing waves of water, until the water calmed down and there were no more waves, the breath in Xie Wufeng's palm dissipated.

Everyone in Prince Wu's Mansion thought that the falling water curtain would submerge the entire palace, and they were planning to flee.I never thought that the dozen or so waterspouts disappeared so lightly, as if the aura that caused everyone's heart palpitations just now had never appeared before.

Mrs. Wu Wangtai, who was only a short distance away, disappeared in an instant after seeing the waterspout. In less than a quarter of an hour, her heart fluctuated. Looking at her son's back, there was a trace of confusion in her eyes.

"Is he really my Feng'er?"

Just as Mrs. Wu Wangtai was deep in thought, Xie Wufeng called softly in front of her, "Mother, don't worry. The palace is safe."

Mrs. Wu Wangtai raised her head again, glanced at the sky, and then set her eyes on her son, who was so familiar, but always gave her a sense of strangeness. "Feng'er, are you really my Feng'er?"

Xie Wufeng came to Mrs. Tai's side, leaned against the guardrail, looked up at the sky, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and whispered softly, "This time, I want to see how these people from Yunancheng can break through this formation. "

The tone was full of confidence, and Mrs. Tai frowned slightly when she heard it. Since her son's first southern expedition, his whole temperament has changed drastically, completely different from before.

Outside the city of Kyoto, in the endless camp of the Jin-Chu Allied Forces, many soldiers were shocked as they looked at the rejuvenated light above the city.

Not only these ordinary soldiers, but even the people of Jujianmen and Feng's family were astonished, with unbelievable expressions in their eyes.

"What exactly is going on?"

"Quickly report to the two clan elders that there is another strange situation in the protective formation above the city of Kyoto."

"Immediately report to the two elders that there is a change in the sky above the capital city!"

When the stream of light spread from one point to the entire protective formation above the city head, it disappeared in a flash, and the entire large protective formation disappeared out of thin air.People standing outside the city could clearly see the defenders and warriors above the city.

Outside the tent, the two brothers Feng Shan and Feng Hai who had just got up met the two elders of the Jujian Sect who had just stepped out of the big tent.

Before everyone in the Feng family could report, the impatient Jing Linzu said, "Brother Feng Shan, what's going on?"

At first, Jing Linzu thought it was because the Feng family's treasure "Changhui" played a role and completely destroyed the protective formation of the capital city.

But after being reminded by Bian Yunbo who accompanied him, he adjusted his breath and gathered his inner breath into his eyes to see clearly the extremely faint streamer still covering the sky over the city of Kyoto, which is almost invisible to the naked eye.

"Could it be that brother's attack yesterday made this protective formation completely ineffective?"

Seeing the "disappearance" of the formation for the first time, Feng Hai spoke out happily, but before he could finish speaking, Feng Shan with a dignified expression on the side interrupted. "How is this possible, there must be something strange in it."

"Brother Feng Shan, what do you think should be done now?" Jing Linzu shook his sleeve robe heavily, and looked back at the streamer that still existed, but ordinary first-rank warriors couldn't detect it at all.

"Let's go together."

Feng Shan didn't know how to answer at this moment.Changhui is the treasure of the family, if even Changhui can't win, then I'm afraid that the protective formation of this capital city is really impossible to break through.

Not long after, four figures cut through the void, rushed out of the camp, and flew towards the sky above the capital city.

Arriving in the extremely high void, the four figures stood above the streamer, looking down at the city of Kyoto under their feet, all lost in thought.

"Brother Jing, Brother Bian, please try again."

Breaking everyone's silence, Feng Shan offered "Changhui", and a little light on his fingertips emitted a dazzling light blue brilliance.

Jing Linzu originally wanted to decline, but he could only say "hmm" when he felt the terrifying aura around him.

Bian Yunbo on the side also nodded, since the Feng family planned to use the family treasure "Eternal Glory" again, their Giant Sword Sect had to do it again.

If it is impossible to break through this protective formation outside the city of Kyoto, the longer it takes, the more unfavorable it will be for the two of them.

Jujianmen and Yunancheng are just relying on the favorable location, once the old monsters from other sects arrive, it will be even more difficult.

Prince Wu's Mansion, on the corridor around Crescent Lake, Xie Wufeng raised his head slightly, and saw the four figures clearly.Although the coercion of the four half-step Heavenly Human Realm was cut off by the protective formation, Xie Wufeng could still clearly feel the aura of the four of them.

Soon, two huge sword lights fell from the sky and hit the capital city.

Mrs. Wu Wangtai's eyes reflected the huge sword light, and she clenched her hands tightly.The whole body trembled a little, but was quickly held gently by a big hand.

"Mother, don't worry, nothing will happen."

Xie Wufeng comforted him softly.

The two sword lights in Mrs. Wu Wangtai's eyes grew bigger and bigger, almost crashing into the capital city.

The two sword lights were almost condensed into substance, and the sword lights fell heavily. Wherever the sword edge passed, it shattered the vitality of the surrounding heaven and earth, and its power was unshakable.

In the blink of an eye, two swords directly hit the sky above the city of Kyoto, and streamers invisible to the naked eye suddenly appeared.

Ripples appeared in the void touched by the sword tip, and soon the stream of light flowed rapidly, one after another runes emitted a faint blue light, forming a semicircular transparent light wall covering the entire capital city.

Jing Linzu and Bian Yunbo were very confident, watching the huge hard shadow of sword light more than ten feet long rushing towards the stream of light that suddenly appeared.

Compared with the last time, this time, the two used [-]% of their strength, and the "giant sword" formed by the convergence of huge internal energy is the highest mystery of the giant sword sect.

Before, they felt that the defensive formation of the capital city was very strong.Last time, under the attack of a giant sword light and shadow, the entire protective formation was directly sunken deeply, and the stream of light scattered.

But this time, the two "giant swords" of Jing Linzu and Bian Yunbo are bound to smash the sky, and they are bound to think of a way to damage the foundation of the city defense formation.

At that time, the treasure of the Feng family, "Eternal Glory", will be able to fight at close range, so that the two of them can also watch closely.

Just when the two of them were full of confidence, several bursts of flames exploded from the tip of the giant sword light. Under the obstruction of the streamer, the electric light lased out, and more than ten blue halos bloomed.

Seeing the scene under their feet, not only Jing Linzu and Bian Yunbo were shocked, but even the two elders of the Feng family beside them stared wide-eyed.

"What exactly is going on?"

Four people and eight eyes watched the two giant sword lights and shadows more than ten feet long annihilated inch by inch in front of the stream of light, and the strong wind and breath contained in them overflowed to the surroundings along with the gap between the runes.
