just a tabby cat

Chapter 239 Meow, It's Balance

Xiu Ze stabilized his figure, and saw that standing in front of him was actually the crumbling Southeast City Tower.

"Xiu Ze..." Li Hua's voice called back Xiu Ze who was attracted by the tower.

"What's wrong?" Li Hua asked anxiously.

Just now she found that Xiu Ze's body was not standing still in the same place as before, but was shaking back and forth, as if he was about to fall to the ground in the next breath.A strong sense of uneasiness welled up in her heart, and before she could think about it carefully, the voice had already called him out of her mind.

"I seem to have found it." Xiu Ze only felt an unbearable headache, and he didn't know whether it was because of exhaustion or because of the voice.

"Found it?" Li Hua asked in surprise, she thought the battle would be fruitless, but she didn't expect it to be much better than expected: "Where is it?"

"Southeast Tower..." Xiu Ze weakly protruded the four words, but finally couldn't take it anymore, closed his eyes and passed out.

"Xiu Ze, Xiu Ze..." Li Hua hugged his sliding body and kept calling his name: "Xiu Ze, don't sleep, don't sleep..."

She felt that Xiu Ze's breathing was getting weaker and weaker.It seems that the next breath will stop breathing.

"It's time to come." The old turtle opened his eyes, which were originally clear, but now they are quite cloudy.

In the next breath, a mouthful of blood spurted out from the old turtle's mouth, staining the yellow sand under his feet red.

"Old turtle, what's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing." The old turtle reached out to wipe away the remaining blood from the corner of his mouth: "My mission is completed, and this tormenting life should also come to an end."

There was a smile on the corner of Lao Gui's mouth, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

"My family has been the container of this key for generations. Now that the key has found the door, there is no need for the container to exist." There was no sadness in the old turtle's eyes, only relief, as if he had let go of a piece that had been stuck in the door. Heart stone.

"Hope, the door you opened is hope, not the abyss..." After speaking, the old turtle's body slowly disappeared into Xiuze's altar like mist.

As for Xiu Ze, whose breath was weak, the breath of his body suddenly changed. Unlike the weakness just now, it suddenly became thicker, stronger than ever before.

"Xiu Ze!" Before he could feel sad, Li Hua saw him open his eyes and hurriedly asked, "How is it?"

"Very good." Xiu Ze stood up and punched tentatively: "It has never been better."

Seeing his joyful appearance, Li Hua was silent for a while before saying, "You should thank Old Gui."

After listening to Li Hua's narration, Xiu Ze touched the altar with his hands, knelt down on his knees in the next breath, slammed his head at the chair made by the old turtle, "Thank you!"

These two words express his indescribable gratitude, thanks to them for waiting for generations, thank him for his dedication, and most importantly, thank him for saving his life.

The moment he fainted just now, he clearly felt that this life was over, and there were still many unfinished business.Just as he was trapped in his own body, at a loss, he suddenly felt clear after a long while.

"Don't worry, I will remember what you have done for generations and what you have done, and more people will know about it." This is his promise to the old turtle, and it is also a promise to the heavy burden on him.

"Report..." Another high-pitched voice came, and the visitor landed on one knee, speaking urgently: "City Master, the fifth line of defense has been broken, and the military commander asked you to go and sit in the town."

"Okay." Li Hua nodded: "You pay attention to concealment, let everyone hide, your safety is the greatest reward to us."

They are no longer able to participate in the follow-up battle, and one more person is just one more casualty.They don't need more people to delay time for them, it's just a waste of life.

"Yes." The visitor's eyes were moist, but he didn't say much.These words were emphasized countless times by the adults in the council hall of the City Lord's Mansion before the war.

"City Lord, they still have 30 people, we are waiting for you." After speaking, the visitor walked out the door without looking back, and disappeared into the darkness.

"Let's go, our battle has begun!" Li Hua straightened her clothes and walked out the door.

The fifth line of defense is located in the middle of the main street of Wuwang City, closer to the southeast city gate.Everyone in Tianyuan City entered their encirclement as expected.

And in terms of the number of people, it is also a little less than what she predicted just now, which is considered a happy event.

"Why is your city lord planning to be a turtle and hide in it for the rest of his life?"

"Who is thinking about me, my aunt? Is it owed? Or is it owed?"

Li Hua's voice ranged from far to near, without the slightest hint of weakness.

"Hahaha, you must be the city lord praised by everyone in the barren land, the only female city lord." Xun Ba said, looking at Li Hua with provocation and disdain.

I thought it was such a powerful character that he lost so many people.Now it seems that it is because she has many talented people under her command to build momentum for her.What can a woman do?

"What's wrong with the woman? Isn't your mother a woman? How can you be without a woman?" Li Hua opened up all her firepower and began to use her poisonous tongue.

In the five realms, apart from the human realm, men are superior to women, and in the other four realms, the status of men and women is basically equal, and even in the underworld, women's status is higher.

She hasn't heard such a statement in nearly 200 years, which is really uncomfortable: "You can try to have your father give birth to you and see if it works!"

"Hahahaha!" The 12 people left behind in Wuwang City all looked up to the sky and laughed. Seeing the city lord's venomous tongue, they suddenly felt that the sense of oppression disappeared without a trace.

"You..." Xun Ba's fingers were away from Hua, trembling.After so many years, he was the only one who taught others. How could anyone criticize him in front of his subordinates?

Xunba tapped his finger lightly, and a wave of devilish energy followed the direction of the finger, rushing towards Li Hua aggressively.

A white shadow flashed in front of him, and the shadow hand slashed downwards, and the magic energy dissipated in the air.

"City Master, it's important." Xun Yue's words saved Xun Ba's face, he hadn't been humiliated like this for a long time.Usually in Tianyuan City, as long as he made gestures, who would not fall in response, and no one had ever disobeyed him.

Xun Ba took the opportunity to go down the stairs: "Today, I have only one purpose, to hand over Wuwang City, and I will not pursue anything..."

"Stop talking nonsense, let's fight." Li Hua interrupted him loudly.

Xing Tian has already explained to them that Xun Ba is not a strong fighter, but he is belligerent, friendly and selfish.Based on these points, they have figured out his character. Once they sue for peace, the final result will be death.

"Okay." The corner of Xun Ba's mouth twitched: "Since you all want to die, there is nothing to say."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and the more than 30 people behind him let go of the reins in their hands, and drove the horses to go first. Just now, they followed the galloping horses and rushed towards them roaring.

"That's right, I've already found experience." Li Hua raised the corners of her mouth and praised, "But if you're too proud, you die faster!"

"Bang!" There was a loud noise, and a huge formation appeared out of thin air, trapping more than 20 people together with their horses.
