low-key is king

Chapter 173 City Lord Yang, long time no see!

"Mr. Mu, are you just looking at it like this?"

Yang Xun didn't care about Zhang Wen's cynicism anymore, but turned his gloomy eyes to his side, looking at the enshrined Mu Chengyin of the Yan family who had already reached the fifth stage.

"Hehe, speaking of it, I really want to know the truth about the battle at Watanabe Castle!"

Mu Chengyin chuckled first, and then seeing that Yang Xun was about to go crazy, he swung his right arm, and then a cold light flew out, flying towards the water moon mirror angrily.

Mu Chengyin didn't use the long arrow, everyone could see that the cold light was a small knife, but the momentum was much stronger than Yang Xun's flying arrow just now.

Whoosh!
It has to be said that Gu Yun of the Four Realms Martial Artist is indeed a quick-witted archer. Seeing this, he shot an arrow, and the arrow hit the blade of the flying knife precisely like a shooting star.

Ding!
However, after a crisp sound of strikes was heard again, the throwing knife that Mu Chengyin sacrificed was not directly knocked into the air.

On the contrary, the long arrow flew obliquely, without changing the direction of the flying knife at all.

Seeing this scene, Yang Xun finally breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thinking that the hateful Shuiyue mirror was about to be broken at last.

Even if it is a rare treasure in the entire Xuanyang Kingdom, he still feels disgusted.

Swish!
However, at this moment, when the flying knife that Mu Chengyin sacrificed was about to plunge into the water moon mirror, the mirror suddenly moved, and it moved a few feet horizontally.

No matter how powerful Mu Chengyin was, it was impossible for him to turn the throwing knife he had thrown out in this situation, so his face became gloomy in the next moment.

It wasn't until this time that with Mu Chengyin's eyes, he finally saw that there seemed to be an invisible thin line connected to the mirror body of the water moon mirror, which could make the water moon mirror move left and right.

With such a long distance, even Mu Chengyin, a martial artist with a minimum of five realms, felt a bit of a headache.

He didn't dare to jump directly into the tens of thousands of troops. With his cultivation level, he would be exhausted to death.

Therefore, everyone including Yang Xun and Mu Chengyin could only watch the images in the Shuiyue Mirror keep appearing, and let the soldiers inside and outside the city see clearly.

"It turns out that this is the truth about the battle at Watanabe Castle!"

Until everyone saw the city lord Yang Xun fleeing with his son, Watanabe City let out a long breath after the killer judge and Yinhu appeared one after another and turned the situation around.

Including the [-] troops outside the city, they had only heard about the battle at Watanabe Castle before, but they never knew the truth. They even thought that the Zhendong Palace was a bit embellished.

Now it seems that the statement of Zhendong Prince's Mansion not only did not add fuel and vinegar, but also did not reveal some details.

That battle turned defeat into victory, and the biggest contributors were of course Judge and Yinhu. However, the role of Zhendong King must not be easily obliterated. With his own strength, he forcibly held the two great Five Realm Sea Clans.

As for colluding with the Sea Clan, that is simply impossible. Didn’t you see that all the Sea Clans of the Four Realms were killed, even a violent dolphin of the Sea Clan of the Five Realms was killed by the judge?

If the Hai Clan and the Zhendong Palace really colluded, it is absolutely impossible to be willing to sacrifice the life of a five-realm Sea Clan. Do you really think those Hai Clan are all fools?
On the contrary, it was Yang Xun, the city lord of Watanabe City, who fled with his son when the battle was in full swing and when the entire Watanabe City was in danger of being destroyed.

Many soldiers of Hongshan City judged others with their own hearts, thinking that if they were the people of Watanabe City, the majestic city lord would abandon him without hesitation when he was in danger, what kind of mood would he be in?

"Fake! It's all fake!"

As if he saw the strange eyes of the soldiers around him, Yang Xun suddenly yelled, and pointed his finger at the water moon mirror in the distant sky outside, looking a little annoyed.

"How can the water moon mirror be fake?"

This is the true thought of the soldiers of Hongshan City.

The Shuiyue Mirror is a treasure. Maybe those gods of the upper five realms may cheat in the Shuiyue Mirror, but this is the Xuanyang Kingdom, and there are not even the middle five realms powerhouses. Who can be the Shuiyue Mirror? Fake?
"Yang Xun, the facts are all there. You are a despicable villain who is greedy for life and afraid of death. If you still don't abandon the city and flee, when will you wait?"

Zhang Wen below strikes while the iron is hot. These few words are full of heart-breaking, but the effect is surprisingly good.

This made all the soldiers in Hongshan City think that Yang Xun might abandon the city and flee at any time. This is a guy with a criminal record. When he knew he was invincible, he must put his life first.

"Mr. Mu, the morale of Hongshan City is no longer available. The only way, I am afraid, is... beheading!"

Yang Xun took a deep breath, ignored the disdainful eyes around him, but whispered to Mu Chengyin beside him, this may indeed be the only way.

After all, among the [-] troops below, the strongest are Zhang Wen and Gu Yun's four-level martial arts masters, and they have not yet reached the four-level perfection.

Mu Chengyin is a small martial artist of the five realms. In Yang Xun's opinion, with this attack, the probability of successfully beheading Zhang and Gu is at least more than [-]%.

As long as Zhang Wen and Gu Yun can be killed, and the "big killer" Shuiyue mirror that can be called evidence is obtained, then everything will have a different interpretation.

"This... ok!"

Originally, Mu Chengyin didn't want to take this risk. After all, there was a whole [-] troops below. Even if he was a small martial artist of the fifth realm, he was in danger of falling under the siege.

But Mu Chengyin also knew how powerful the Shuiyue Mirror was. It would not only reveal Yang Xun's true face, but also make Yan's teacher famous.

The reason why the Yan family targeted Zhendong Palace was that the king of Zhendong, Lu Mingyang, colluded with the Hai Clan, so that the Yan family, the capital of the country, could also occupy the side of righteousness. This is a very subtle strategy.

But if this water moon mirror is allowed to spread everywhere, it will be much more powerful than word of mouth.

Shuiyue mirror itself has a strange magic power, which can be used as an ironclad proof that King Zhendong has not colluded with the sea clan.

Therefore, after Mu Chengyin weighed the pros and cons, he finally decided to take the risk, even if he couldn't kill Zhang Wen and Gu Yun, he must snatch the Shuiyue mirror.

"Mr. Laomu is here!"

Hearing this, Yang Xun couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. He was undoubtedly devastated just now, but as long as he can kill Zhang and Gu and win the Shuiyue Mirror, then everything can be done.

laugh!
However, at this moment, a cold light suddenly rose, and then Yang Xun saw an extremely incredible scene, and this scene was somewhat familiar to him.

I saw that cold light appeared very abruptly, and in the next moment, it directly pierced into the back of the neck of the fifth-level martial artist Mu Chengyin, so that the fifth-level martial artist did not react at all.

Mu Chengyin, who suddenly suffered a fatal blow, was stunned.

He could feel the severe pain from the back of his neck, followed by a hot blood gushing from his throat, which made him cough violently.

"You...cough cough...you...cough cough..."

Mu Chengyin wanted to ask something, but every time he uttered a word, he was blocked by the gushing blood until he felt that hard thing had been pulled out from the back of his neck.

Mu Chengyin turned around with difficulty, and what caught his eyes was a hideous mask. Through the two small holes in the mask, he could see a pair of cold eyes.

"Judge!"

A slightly sharp high-pitched voice came into his ears, allowing Demu Chengyin to instantly know who the masked man in front of him was. It was the killer judge who is now well-known in the entire Xuanyang Kingdom.

Since the two battles in Watanabe Castle ended, those enshrined by the Yan family like Mu Chengyin were not afraid of the five-level consummated martial artist Lu Mingyang, but the elusive killer Judge and Silver Fox.

Earlier, Mu Chengyin was always on guard against the sudden attack of those two killers.

But he never thought that the opponent's attack would be so fierce that he had no room to react at all.

Or maybe it was because at that moment just now, Mu Chengyin wanted to go down to the city, kill Zhang and Gu to capture the Shuiyue Mirror, which led to a slight loss of mind, and the judge seized the opportunity.

From this, it can also be seen how strong this killer judge's ability to seize opportunities is, and his own strength is extremely calm. This is the one-hit kill that a killer should have.

boom!
Mu Chengyin, with blood dripping from his throat, finally fell down powerlessly, his body twitching continuously, leaving everyone on the wall of the east gate of Hongshan City stunned.

Especially Yang Xun and his son, including a Master Huaguang, couldn't help shaking.

After all, their strength is not a bit worse than that of Yan's enshrined Mu Chengyin.

You must know that the judge is like killing a five-level martial artist like a chicken. Although he is suspected of sneak attack, there is no need to hide in secret and sneak attack to deal with them, these four-level martial artists and monks, right?
"Hehe, City Lord Yang, long time no see!"

When the three people here were feeling fearful, the killer judge had already turned his head slowly and chuckled softly.

For some reason, the three of Yang Xun who heard this voice felt faintly familiar.

Appearing here and killing Mu Chengyin's judge with one move, it was naturally Lu Xun. He has always been very interested in this former Watanabe City Lord who once coveted Zhendong Prince's Mansion.

Today's Lu Xun has broken through to the realm of a martial artist who is a master of four realms. It is not too inconceivable to kill Mu Chengyin who is a minor accomplishment of five realms by surprise.

It's a pity that his qi refining cultivation base still stays at the perfection of the three realms, which makes him very melancholy. It seems that this battle between life and death is of no great use to the breakthrough of qi refining cultivation base.

Lu Xun didn't worry too much about this, seeing Lu Xun father and son and Master Huaguang again, his face under the mask was half a smile but not a smile.

These guys, it's impossible to escape from under my nose now, right?
