Chapter 676 Good News Turns Bad News

"not good!"

The strength of the old man Song was even higher than that of the old woman Bai, and when he sensed that he was also bound by the wooden vines, he thought something bad in his heart, and the power of the eighth-level martial artist exploded in an instant.

This kind of power has a faint tendency to break through to the small success of the eighth realm. Even ordinary monks who have completed the eighth realm can fight for some time, and they will never be helpless.

It's a pity that the two pines and cypresses met today were not ordinary eight-level monks, and the fighting power of the blue-blooded old devil was by no means comparable to other people in the same level.

Just the skill of waiting for a rabbit is not something that other monks of the Eight Realms can do. Since the old man Bai has already been tricked, how can he give the other party a chance?
Pole!
A sound of wooden vines breaking was coming out, making both Songbai and Songbai happy, but then, the old man's face changed again, because more wooden vines had wrapped his whole body around.

"Damn it, His Highness Ninth Prince's information is wrong, my husband and I will die today!"

It wasn't until this time that the old man Bai finally understood the fact that the green-robed old man who was following Lu Xun was simply an existence that the husband and wife could not contend with.

Just a trick of wooden vine restraint left them without the slightest ability to fight back.

Moreover, the other party seemed to know that their husband and wife teamed up to unleash even greater power, so they didn't give them this chance.

The old man Bai and the old woman Song were separated by tens of feet, and some of the connections between them could not be stimulated, so they did not join hands to talk about it.

After all, these are two strong martial artists who have just entered the eighth realm. The blue-blooded old devil wanted to show off in front of Lu Xun, so naturally he didn't want to have any surprises. Many things were calculated by him.

"what!"

A moment later, a shrill scream came first. It turned out that the old woman finally couldn't bear the squeeze of countless wooden vines, and even the bones of her whole body were squeezed to death.

Among the entanglements of wooden vines, the originally skinny old woman Bai, her bones were broken inch by inch, like a blood man, looking at the old man Song through the wooden vines, full of despair.

Perhaps it was only at this time that the old woman Bai regretted a little, regretting why she came to take up this mission, and why her own Matsuro was so vulnerable?
The situation of the elder pine over there was similar, he only persisted for a few more breaths at most, when the wooden vines dissipated and left in place, there were only two corpses left.

Xuan Shisan was undoubtedly stunned by this scene, his eyes kept looking back and forth between the two pines and cypresses and the old man in green robe, as if he was dreaming.

It was originally thought that once Lu Xun returned, he would be blocked in this remote place by two masters of the eighth realm, and today it would probably be more ominous than good, but he did not expect such a result.

This green-robed man who came out of nowhere seemed to have spent too much effort to deal with the two masters of the eighth realm in such a devastating manner.

From this, Xuan Shisan could also guess that although the green-robed man showed the perfection of the eight realms, the fact may not be the case, and there must be secrets that he does not know.

"Hey, this is really a catcher coming to die!"

Lu Xun shook his head, sighed first, then took a few steps forward, and unceremoniously peeled off the mustard seed bracelets on the wrists of Songbai and Mrs. Songbai.

This is a lucrative booty. Even if the net worth of an Eighth Realm Martial Artist is not much, he must have some gold and jade beads. Naturally, Lu Xun will not leave this wealth to others.

"Let's go!"

After collecting the mustard seed bracelet, Lu Xun seemed to have just done a trivial thing, which made Xuan Shisan even more frightened.

The relationship between the two seems a bit unusual.

You must know that when Lu Xun left the capital, he was at most a martial artist who had just entered the sixth level, but now, a great monk who has completed the eighth level dared not say a word in front of him.

This is more like the relationship between a master and a servant, which makes Xuan Shisan puzzled. How could he accept such a master when he went out?
"Master, what about my move just now?"

Seeing that Lu Xun had already left quickly, the blue-blooded old devil hurriedly followed, and asked for credit, making Lu Ying next to him curl her lips, saying that the eighth realm of the secret path has successfully entered the eighth realm, what is there to be proud of? ?
"Be so-so!"

Lu Xun let out a soft voice without turning his head, which made the green blood old devil a little melancholy.

In the eyes of this young master, is his amazing performance just so-so?
But the blue-blooded old devil didn't dare to say more, he could only follow Lu Xun forward, and Xuan Shisan behind him had a lot of questions to ask, but he didn't ask directly at this time.

Lu Xun thought that when he went to Du Baimei's residence, he would definitely introduce him again, so he didn't say much, just introduce them together later, and there is no rush.

…………

The second floor of the restaurant not far from Teleportation Square.

Xuan Jing and Xuan Wugou, the prince brothers of the royal family, were drinking together at the same table, and they seemed to be in a good mood, even Xuan Jing hummed a ditty.

"Don't care about his youthful arrogance...it's all in my hands..."

I don't know if the two lines of the play were made up by Xuan Jing, or from some play, in short, they are very suitable for the occasion at this moment, and they make Xuan Wugou who is holding the wine glass on the opposite side nod again and again.

None of them had any reason to doubt that if two powerful martial artists who had just entered the eighth realm robbed and killed a boy with only a six-level cultivation, they might miss it.

Now they are just waiting for the good news here, and they have never thought about another result, a result that they cannot accept.

blah blah blah...

After half a stick of incense time, a burst of hurried footsteps finally interrupted the ditty in Xuan Jing's mouth, causing the eyes of the two brothers to immediately turn to the stairway.

"Good news is here!"

The Ninth Prince and the Eighteenth Prince looked at each other and smiled, then Xuan Jing laughed lightly and stood up straight away. He knew that some of his goals must have been achieved.

But when the moment came, when Xuan Jing and Xuan Wugou saw that there was not just one person coming up, but two people, and they couldn't even be said to be purely two people, their expressions changed drastically.

There were two people who came alive, but behind each of these two people was a strange, soundless figure on their backs, as if they had no bones and their bodies were extremely soft.

"Your Highness, something is wrong, the elder Songbai... are both dead!"

The first person was the one who came to report the letter before, his face was extremely ugly, and the first sentence he blurted out was so earth-shattering.

The shock made the two princes, who always boasted of being stable, tremble violently.

The two limp corpses were thrown directly on the second floor of the restaurant by the two of them. They no longer had any breath, and it was impossible to stand up and receive credit from the Ninth Prince.

"No, it's impossible. Songbai and Songbai are masters of the Eighth Realm, why are they like this?"

Xuan Jing seemed to be in a state of dismay. One must know that Songbai Erlao was already a high-end figure in the Ninth Prince's Mansion. In order to win over such a strong man, he paid a huge price.

But now, the two masters of the Eighth Realm, who had been won over at a great price, just lay here inexplicably. No matter how angry he roared, it was impossible for him to come back to life.

These two are Xuan Jing's trump cards for the future battle for the throne. The death of the two masters of the eighth realm undoubtedly made him a little bit hurt.

"Have you seen it clearly? Who did it?"

Since Song Bai and Song Bai were not his dead soldiers, Xuan Wugou seemed to be calmer at this moment, although he also had a gloomy face, but he asked a crucial question.

Now that Songbai and Songbai are dead, it is meaningless to be angry and unwilling. What they need to do now is to find out the cause of Songbai's death.

When Xuan Wugou asked this question, he felt a little uneasy in his heart. If this was another hole card that Lu Xun was hiding, he was really a little afraid of how many cards the other party had.

"I... we were too far away at the time, I didn't... didn't see clearly!"

However, after Xuan Wugou asked the question, what he got was an answer that made him extremely dissatisfied.

These two guys really did more than fail.

"But the Thirteenth Highness should have gone to the scene, isn't it?"

The man seemed to know the dissatisfaction of the two Highnesses, and immediately told another fact, causing the two brothers to look at each other, and they both saw anger in each other's eyes.

It seems that these two attributed Lu Xun's ability to escape this fatal situation to the fact that Xuan Shisan led people to help him, and also killed the two eighth-level dead men in the Ninth Prince's Mansion.

Xuan Shisan, as the thirteenth prince of Daxuan, naturally also raised some dark sons, but what kind of strength and how many people he had, the other princes did not know.

"What the hell is Brother Thirteen going to do? For the sake of an outsider, do you really want to break the face with our brothers?"

Xuan Wugou was about to go crazy. He always felt that although Xuan Shisan was good to Lu Xun, he had the same blood as himself. When the critical moment came, he would definitely make a choice.

"Eighteenth brother, do you still have hope for Xuan Shisan?"

Xuan Jing at the side glanced at Xuan Wugou, a sneer appeared on his face.

The current him not only hated Lu Xun to the bone, but also had a killing intent towards Xuan Shisan.

Who told Xuan Shisan to sabotage his plan again and again, now he wants to kill Lu Xun quickly, but Xuan Shisan always helps that kid, making him furious.

"Ninth brother, what should we do next?"

Xuan Wugou's eyes rolled wildly, limited by his age and cultivation, his strength and hole cards naturally did not have as many as Xuan Jing, so he could only rely on the strength of this ninth brother.

"Just wait and see, this is the capital of King Daxuan after all, not your little Xuanyang Kingdom!"

A glint of cruelty flashed in Xuan Jing's eyes, thinking of the humiliation he had received in Xuanyang Kingdom, both new and old hatred welled up in his heart.

He couldn't swallow this breath without skinning that boy surnamed Lu from Xuanyang Kingdom.
