low-key is king

Chapter 175 Sweep all the way

"I... I know a mausoleum!"

As if seeing the murderous intent under the mask, Master Huaguang gritted his teeth, and said such a sentence with some reluctance, which made Lu Xun's heart move.

"That should be the mausoleum of a mechanism engineer, and the owner of the tomb has probably reached the Golden Core Realm!"

Now that the secret has been revealed, Master Huaguang no longer drags his feet. When he further described it, the light in Lu Xun's eyes became brighter and brighter.

"It's the mausoleum of the mechanism master passed down in Xuanyang Kingdom? Do you know where it is?"

Lu Xun's fingers moved slightly, sensing the mechanism wooden kite in the mustard bracelet, and now he is also a genuine third-grade mechanism master.

The wooden kites sacrificed by the Central Army of the Wangfu in Lincheng were built by Lu Xun himself, and they also attracted the amazement of many powerful people in Lincheng, but it is not clear who is the real mechanism master in the army of the Wangfu.

In the legend of Xuanyang Kingdom, the tomb of the Jindan and even the Nascent Soul mechanism master has always been a well-known secret, but no one knows where the real location of the tomb is.

Because every martial artist or monk who went to look for the tomb either failed to find the place where the tomb was located or never returned.

As time passed, the legend about the tomb of the mechanism master became more and more evil, but there were always brave people looking for it, even if it might cost their lives.

Lu Xun, who became a mechanism master, actually had such thoughts, but even Ting Xinlou didn't know the location of the mechanism master's tomb, let alone other people.

I didn't expect to be forced here at this moment, and to get the news of the mechanism master's tomb from the mouth of Master Huaguang. This is undoubtedly a surprise for Lu Xun.

"You spare my life, I will take you there!"

This is already Master Huaguang's last bargaining chip, so naturally he will not let it go easily, and he added another sentence with a sullen face: "Don't try to force me to say it first, I have a poison sac hidden between my teeth, and my throat is sealed with blood! "

"You old fellow is very cautious!"

Hearing that Lu Xun was also a little helpless, he really wanted to repeat the old trick just now, and used some means to force out the location of the mechanism master's tomb from Master Huaguang, but he didn't expect that the other party had expected this trick long ago.

Master Huaguang's identity as a poisoner has undoubtedly become his life-saving trump card. Even if Lu Xun has thousands of ways to torture the opponent, he is still no match for the poison sac that seals his throat with blood.

Presumably, when he knew that he was about to suffer extreme pain, Master Huaguang would not hesitate to bite the poison sac. As a fourth-grade poison master, he has a hundred ways to die easily.

"Okay, then keep your head on your neck for the time being!"

Since there is no good solution, Lu Xun can only compromise temporarily. With his current strength, a mere fourth-grade poison master does not pose much threat to him.

"Who is that, why are you standing there, why don't you go and open the city gate?"

Lu Xun didn't bother Master Huaguang any more, but turned his head and yelled softly at a three-realm martial artist, which made the man tremble violently and hesitated for a moment.

"Your Majesty Judge, can't you hear me? Or do you want to taste the old man's poison?"

Seeing the general hesitate, at this time, Master Huaguang seemed to act as the spokesperson for the judge. Hearing his last words, the general was shocked, but he didn't dare to hesitate anymore.

The others didn't have any objection to this. Hongshan City's situation was gone, and if they tried to resist, even if they could hold off the army outside the city for a while, they might lose their lives like Yang Xun and his son.

Under such circumstances, there is no reason to persist any longer.

In a short while, the east gate of Hongshan City was wide open, and the soldiers in the city all drooped their heads like defeated roosters.

But when Zhang Wen and Gu Yun led the army into the city, the black-clothed and masked figure had long since disappeared on the city wall, which made them feel a little melancholy.

Zhang Wen and Gu Yun knew clearly that it had nothing to do with them being able to break through Hongshan City without a single soldier this time, and the real reason was not the truth in the mirror of water and moon.

All of this is because a killer judge appeared at the east gate of Hongshan City, who blocked the killing Buddha.

It was precisely because the judge successively assassinated Mu Chengyin, the five-level martial artist, and Yang Xun, the master of Hongshan City, his father and son, that laid the foundation for the victory of this war.

Everyone can tell the truth, but when the enemy's strength is much higher than yours, some truths are not easy to say.

Both Zhang and Gu knew that if the judge hadn't appeared out of nowhere, they would have to pay a huge price if they wanted to break through Hongshan City today, and it would not be impossible for them to fail.

But after a while, Zhang and Gu put away their melancholy feelings. After all, this was a great victory for the soldiers who surrendered without fighting. They should report the battle situation of Hongshan City to King Zhendong's central army as soon as possible. It's business.

…………

In the next month, the three armies of Zhendong Wangfu went hand in hand, invincible.

Many cities are waiting for the wind to fall, even including some county towns, and if a few city lords resist stubbornly, the ending will be extremely miserable.

According to gossip from insiders, it is said that the empress in Chaoyang Palace has thrown something in the palace for the first time.

The voice was so loud that most of Chaoyang Palace could hear it clearly.

In addition to the combat power of Lu Mingyang's three-way army, there are also some special infiltrations going on at the same time.

Lu Mingyang is the king of a hundred battles, and his name is much stronger than that of Da Sima Yan Rongdao. Many soldiers in the army have fought with him in the north and south.

On the other hand, Zhao Qidong has been the prime minister of Xuanyang Kingdom for decades.

Although the civil servants of the Grand Court Council in the capital are almost squeezed out by the Yan family, there are many civil servants who have been sent to other places. Like Guan Xu, they are old students of Zhao Qidong.

These people were severely suppressed by the Yan family, or important family members were killed, or they were demoted to remote cities. They have always harbored resentment against the Yan family in their hearts.

It's just that the Yan family was very powerful in the past, even if these people had hatred in their hearts, they dared not speak out, and they didn't even dare to express their mentality in public.

Now that the Zhendong Prince's Mansion raised troops from Watanabe City, they rushed all the way and grew stronger, which seemed to arouse the blood and revenge of these people.

Many cities were taken down without any effort under the cooperation of inside and outside.

Subduing the enemy without fighting is already the highest level of warfare. How can people like Lu Mingyang and Zhao Qidong, who are so sophisticated and calculating, not be good at it?

This also shows from the side that the superficial prosperity of the Yan family relying on iron and blood is just an illusion. As long as there is an orthodox Lu family like Zhendong King, the world will be prosperous.

With the passage of time, the army of the palace also doubled from 20 at Watanabe Castle to [-], and it was full of elite soldiers.

These soldiers looked vulnerable under Yan's hands, but after they were gathered by Zhendong King, they seemed to have changed a lot.

When all kinds of news spread back to the capital, Tianyang City, it would naturally cause a great shock.

…………

State City, Changning City!

The administrative units of Xuanyang Kingdom are divided by states, counties and counties, and Changning City is an extremely large state city.

The city's resident population exceeds one million, and it is also an extremely important military town in Xuanyang Kingdom.

It is worth mentioning that the city lord of Changning City, that is, the guarding general, is Yan Haosheng, the Huolin General of the Yan clan, and now he is also sitting in Changning City himself to ward off the invincible soldiers of the Zhendong Palace.

This son of the head of the Yan clan is not an idiot, he was also promoted by relying on his solid military achievements, and he is the heir to the position appointed by the great Sima Yan Rongdao.

At that time, Empress Yan Chaolu will sit on the throne of the monarch and become the first female monarch of Xuanyang Kingdom, and also the founding monarch of the Yan clan.

And Yan Haosheng controls the soldiers and horses, and the two complement each other, and the status of the Yan clan will be unshakable.

It's just that Yan Rongdao's wishful thinking was very good, but he never thought that at that time, Yan Haosheng, who holds a heavy soldier in his hand, would really be willing to be driven by Yan Chaolu?

It is well known that the royal family is the most ruthless. For the sake of the supreme power, the biological father, son and brother can still turn against each other, let alone such an ambitious person like Yan Haosheng.

Before Yan Hao was born, he didn't have such thoughts at the beginning, but in the current situation, he must first explain the external aggression before he is qualified to consider this internal struggle.

If this battle was won by Zhendong King Lu Mingyang, then all the ambitions of the Yan clan would be wiped out.

The prerequisite for Yan Haosheng to become the co-lord of Xuanyang is to completely destroy the 20 troops of Zhendong Palace outside Changning City.

That's right, the army of Zhendong Prince's Mansion was divided into three groups, and it had already turned into a group, and all the battalions were lined up outside the city of Changning, vast and vast as far as the eye can see.

Changning City is the state city, and also the last strong line of defense to the east of Tianyang City. If Changning City is breached, apart from Tianyang Capital, there will be no danger to defend.

This is the real reason why Yan Haosheng personally supervised the battle of Changning City, and in order to be safe, this time the Yan family did not just send a General Huolin.

In addition to Yan Haosheng, who had just entered the five realms, Yan Rongli, the third wife of the Yan family, was also in Changning City, plus three enshrined priests from the five realms of the Yan family.

Such a camp, in addition to guarding against Lu Mingyang, a martial artist who is perfect in the five realms, is also to guard against the killer judge and the silver fox that may appear.

Today's Yan family already believes that the silver fox and judge, although they have some relationship with the Hidden Killing Society, the Hidden Killing Society has not intervened, and they are likely to be killers from other places.

As long as the three major forces do not intervene, the Yan family will not have too many scruples.

In addition to these high-end powerhouses, Changning City has also assembled a full 20 troops, which is not inferior to Zhendong Palace in terms of military strength.
