Chapter 179 Tongling is over
This Tongling Rebellion was completely over from the moment the Xuzhou troops and the five masters left. It only took one night from beginning to end, but so many things happened in that night!

Although Ji Yanzhi failed to break through, but at the last moment, he still used his life to restrain the red girl. Cooperating with the other two powerful masters, he used the three spiritual swords of Xuezhao, Xueyang, and Xueying to die with the red girl, and he lived up to his reputation as a great scholar .

Of course, Ji Yanzhi's death was far from simple.

Judging from his willingness to die with Miss Hong in the end, it was obvious that Ji Yanzhi was mentally prepared for his own death.

Moreover, he had reached an agreement with Huangfu Xing in advance, so he was so relieved to come to Tongling to break through. Thinking about it, Ji Yanzhi probably already knew about the good intentions of the Wanjian Saint Sect.

After Huangfu Xing failed to break through Ji Yanzhi, he didn't even leave any room for Jing Tianyu, or the Wan Jian Sheng Sect, and directly tore up the Jindu Covenant and officially declared war on Xuzhou. It can be confirmed that he is using the topic as an excuse.

The Rakshasa Holy Cult, which is beset by internal and external troubles and is besieged on all sides, obviously needs an external war to demonstrate its strength. The reason is also very simple. If you hit it with one punch, you will avoid hundreds of punches. Rather than being slowly penetrated and disintegrated, it is better to It would be better to have a hearty battle with Xuzhou, which not only demonstrates the strength of the Holy Cult, but also can shock all parties.

Ji Yanzhi must be aware of the plight of the Rakshasa Holy Cult, and he also knows that once he fails to break through, Huangfu Xing will definitely take advantage of the situation and launch a war with Xuzhou. In this way, the war between the two states is also one of Ji Yanzhi's intentions, and it has been achieved!

From the top level, the protagonists of this Tongling Rebellion are the three holy places of Rakshasa Holy Sect, Ten Thousand Swords Holy Sect, and White Deer Academy.

Ji Yanzhi's breakthrough failed, and White Deer Academy lost a great scholar, which was considered the worst. However, at the same time, Ji Yanzhi's goal of provoking a war between Yongzhou and Xuzhou was achieved, so he was not a complete failure, or White Deer Academy was not a complete failure.

The Wanjian Shengzong was depressed and deliberately cooperated with Ji Yanzhi's plan. In fact, they wanted to see him fail and die. Their goal was achieved, but this sudden battle was somewhat unexpected. It can be seen from Jing Tianyu's reaction When they came out, they obviously did not expect that Huangfu Xing would tear up the alliance. In this way, the Ten Thousand Swords Saint Sect could not be called a success or a failure.

As for the third-party Rakshasa Holy Cult, it seems that it is actually the most profitable one at the moment!
The so-called Taoist Demon Leader, Ji Yan's death in Yongzhou was definitely a good thing for the Rakshasa Holy Sect, and they also succeeded in using this incident to shift the responsibility to the Wanjian Holy Sect and initiate a war between the two states.

If nothing unexpected happens, the Rakshasa Holy Sect will definitely launch a fierce attack on Xuzhou in the next period of time, otherwise it will not have a deterrent effect. If the Wanjian Holy Sect cannot respond in time, maybe the Rakshasa Holy Sect will This incident can really shock everyone and get out of the current predicament.

Putting aside the struggles of these top figures, looking at the changes below, Hou Yuxiao feels more comfortable...

Nowadays, the only second-rate force in Tongling County, the Daluo Sect, has lost all its troops. The leaders of the three first-rate forces, Lingcheng Escort Bureau, Longyue Sect, and Qijue Sect, all died in the hands of Hou Yuxiao in the secret realm. The remaining disciples of the three families died. Death and running away can no longer form any combat effectiveness.

Leiyin Temple's hidden chess piece was not harmful, but due to Hou Yuxiao's sabotage, it failed to play any role. Moreover, as Zen Master Yuankong was kicked out by Huangfu Xing, Leiyin Temple's ambition to get involved in Tongling was completely crushed. , and Ding Dian, who had taken refuge in Leiyin Temple, was also jointly killed by Hou Yuxiao and Hou Yuduan.

Killing Ding Dian can be said to be the most enjoyable thing for Hou Yuxiao. After all, Ding Dian has always regarded Hou as a thorn in Hou's side because of Cheng Yue's incident. This time, he can be solved logically and once and for all. Of course, it is worth being happy. .

Just as what Fan Longhe said, in addition to the three holy places, so far, the one who has hidden the most depth in the Tongling Rebellion and has also become the biggest winner is his Hou family.

The Hou family, this time, annexed the Yaochen Sect, the Bai family, and the Hongdao Clan in one fell swoop. There are as many as 700 warriors under their command. Among them, the number of warriors who are above the fifth level has increased sharply from the original 3000 to more than [-]. Said to replace Daluo Sect in one fell swoop and become the well-deserved number one force in Tongling.

More importantly, in Tongling, the Daluo Sect has been destroyed, and among the other eight third-rate forces, only the Xiyun Escort Bureau is left. This was because Liu Jianghong could not see the situation clearly at the city gate before and refused Hou Yuxiao's recruitment. Now, If he were asked to choose another situation, there would be almost no suspense.

That is to say, in Tongling County, the Hou family is the only influential force at present...

Hou Yuxiao already has the cultivation level of the second level of Grandmaster. Coupled with the fifth prince Yuduan, he has over [-] disciples under his command. He, the Hou family, is already qualified to be promoted to the second level and dominate a county.

In addition, almost all of the more than [-] people Hou Yuxiao rescued before the war were relatives and family members of the Fu army. Just look at the performance of those Fu soldiers just now to know their current attitude towards the Hou family.

Whether in terms of strength or reputation, in Tongling, the Hou family has reached its peak, and there is no room for improvement...

This is how Hou Yuxiao dared to be so unscrupulous and directly win over people's hearts in front of Fan Longhe and Gui Yutang!

Hou Yuxiao watched Fan Longhe and Gui Yutang leaving with interest, although the smile was still on his mouth, there was still a slight coldness in his eyes.

To be fair, he had a pretty good impression of these two people. After all, Fan Longhe and Gui Yutang had helped him when he was targeted by Ding Dian. As long as the two of them could understand their interests, Hou Yuxiao had no interest in dealing with them.

But if he is ignorant, he will naturally not be lenient...

"Brother, these two are probably going to complain to Master Fanyin. Do you want to..."

While Hou Yuxiao was thinking, Hou Yucheng suddenly came up from the side. He turned around and saw Hou Yucheng put his hand on his neck to make gestures, and his brows suddenly darkened.

"You are quite cruel. You think about killing people all day long. Can you beat them?"

Hou Yucheng chuckled, patted the Black Jue Demon Sword on his waist, and said excitedly: "Fan Longhe was seriously injured, and Gui Yutang is only at the Dan level. I can probably do it alone. Even if it doesn't work, I still have a big brother." you!"

"Go, go, go, hurry back to the city to do things. In just three days, say hello to the third, fourth and other clan members. Be sure to have a good relationship with the government troops, especially the three brothers just now. In addition, Find some smart people from the government army, even if you spend a little more money, these may be our people in the future, do you understand?"

Although he could no longer kill Fan Longhe and Gui Yutang, the expression on Hou Yucheng's face was still very exciting after hearing these words from Hou Yuxiao. Of course he could understand the meaning of his elder brother's words, and he also knew how beneficial this matter would be to the family. Busy nodded heavily and led the people behind him toward the city.

Hou Yuxiao looked back at the direction where Fan Longhe and Gui Yutang were leaving, with a slight coldness in his eyes. Of course he knew that these two people were going to complain to Master Fanyin, but this was originally part of his plan.

He roped in these government troops and rushed to take over the task of saving lives and healing the wounded in front of Fan Longhe. It was not that simple. There were about 40 people alive in the city at the moment. Adding in the 60 people outside the city, the entire population of Tongling was still [-]. Nearly [-]. If done properly in these three days, Hou's reputation will reach a new level in the hearts of these people.

After all, those who save people, apart from the Hou family warriors, are the government troops. Not to mention the Hou family warriors, just looking at the grateful attitude of those government soldiers who just shed tears of gratitude to him, after these three days of rescue work, the reputation of the Hou family must still be good. Can go to another level.

With the support of 60 people in the city, plus the more than [-] warriors at hand, even if these two people go to complain, they should not be able to make any trouble. His performance in the Tongling Rebellion was already remarkable, although Fanyin The master probably guessed that he had defected to the Purple Pure Sect, but from beginning to end, he never did any specific act of apostasy.

On the contrary, he also killed the apostate Ding Dian and assisted Fan Longhe in defending the city. These were all expressions of loyalty to the Holy Religion, and Zhan Taiqing had no reason to deal with him.

Next, Peng Yuhu is still besieging Wanyang County. Zhan Taiqing will definitely set off to help in three days. The war between Yongxu and Xuzhou is tense. Although the power in Hou's hands is not strong, it is still a fighting force. Zhan Taiqing should Won't let it go.

Next, just wait for Zhan Taiqing to find you...

After thinking clearly, Hou Yuxiao did not stay any longer and flew directly back to the Hou family's small courtyard in the northeast corner of Wanyang County.

In fact, after that night, except for the city wall, at least nine out of ten buildings in the city were damaged, and Hou's courtyard was also reduced to ruins, but Hou Yuxiao still found a secluded location near the courtyard. Sit down cross-legged and sink into the sea of ​​consciousness.

Seeing the situation in his consciousness sea, Hou Yuxiao suddenly looked stunned...

In the sea of ​​​​consciousness, on the nine-story black altar, there should have been only a three-foot-long demon ape martial spirit. At some point, there was a golden demon dragon with red eyes, winding around the body of the demon ape.

Hou Yuxiao was fully prepared to break through the spirit of condensing martial arts, and it took less than five hours to break through to the second level of spiritual connection. He remembered clearly that before, his only martial spirit was this demon ape, so why did another demon dragon suddenly appear? ?

By the way, the Canglong Stick is the demon dragon soul in the Canglong Stick...

Hou Yuxiao tried to communicate with the demon dragon soul entwined on the demon ape, but after many times, he did not see any response from it. After feeling it with his true energy, he found that there was nothing wrong with the demon ape martial spirit, and neither did the demon dragon soul. What kind of threat he had, I thought about it and let him go.

After Wu Ling read it, he cast his eyes to the bottom of the altar. A piece of golden paper was quietly suspended there. It was the golden page of merit given to him by Sikong Yue.

Hou Yuxiao's pupils showed a touch of excitement and looked at Jin Ye:

Merit: 592109
Karma: 1912011
hiss…………

Seeing this astonishing number, Hou Yuxiao suddenly took a breath of cold air.

The good and bad deeds done by Hou Yucheng, Hou Yujie and the other two people will also be recorded on his head. He has known this for a long time, so when the city was filled with mourners and the red girl died, he had already felt that his own merits and karma were being exposed. Zeng, but he had been in a state of mental stress before, and the war was in full swing, so he didn't have the heart to watch.

Before the breakthrough, his two values ​​were 12 and 39 respectively. He guessed that the values ​​would skyrocket, but the sudden increase was still beyond his expectation.

The 152 million karma should be accounted for by the people who died in Tongling City tonight, and part of it was attributed to him. After all, he was the one who colluded with the red girl, and Hou Yuxiao had already been mentally prepared for this.

As for the 47 merits, it should have been brought to him by Hou Yuduan's last sword, which dealt a fatal blow to the red girl.

Including the last years of Emperor Wuzong's life and this time, the huge blood debt borne by Miss Hong should not be so meritorious. It should be due to the cause of her death, not only Hou Yuduan's sword, but also many other factors, so it was converted into 47 meritorious deeds.

However, even 47 is already a considerable sum for Hou Yuxiao...

Suddenly becoming a nouveau riche, Hou Yuxiao is still a little uncomfortable with the four functions of disguise, martial arts Xiaohuandan, swallowing skills, and martial arts promotion. Apart from swallowing skills, it seems that Hou Yuxiao is not using them so much at the moment. After thinking for a moment, he took out a light ball from his arms, with a slight light rising in his eyes.

With the ability to swallow energy, whenever he kills warriors with good cultivation, he will not miss their cultivation. The light ball in his hand was obtained by killing Ding Dian before.

Ding Dian is the Grand Master of the Fourth Realm who has opened the Diyin Divine Point. Compared with the light balls he has swallowed before, his cultivation is obviously not at the same level. Hou Yuxiao circulates his true energy and slowly inhales the light balls into his body.

After the light ball was transformed into pure skill through the divine lotus, his karma immediately consumed 10000 points, followed by a sudden increase of 20, and the total karma value suddenly climbed to 2102011.

210 million, his merit is 59. To reach 20 times, his karma must be more than 1000 million, which is still far away. It seems that his swallowing ability will be put to use for a long time...

Thinking of this, Hou Yuxiao glanced sideways in the direction of Xuzhou to the east. After a slight chill rose from the corner of his mouth, he held his breath and concentrated on refining this cultivation.

………………

Outside Tongling City, Master Fanyin looked at everything in the city quietly, his eyes deep and he didn't know what he was thinking, while Fan Longhe and Gui Yutang knelt behind her with clasped fists.

"The more than [-] people that Hou secretly rescued are all family members of the government army. From this alone, we can judge that Hou is secretly harboring evil intentions. He rushes to aid the people in the city and help them rebuild Tongling. Taking advantage of our religion's crisis, , blatantly trying to win over people’s hearts, Mr. Hou’s intentions can be punished, subordinates, I sincerely ask my master for a clear warning!”

Fan Longhe's indignant words did not receive a response for a long time. Master Fanyin just turned his back to him, as if he did not hear his words.

After waiting for nearly dozens of breaths, Zhan Taiqing turned his head and spoke coldly.

"During the riots in the city, didn't you know how to evacuate the people in advance? Now I blame others for winning over people's hearts. They saved more than [-] people and were kind to the army. What do you want me to know clearly? The Hou family has evil intentions. I I can indeed see it, why, could it be that you want me to kill him now?

In the Tongling Rebellion, [-]% of the people in the city were killed or injured. Although the culprit was Ding Dian, who was in charge of the prison department, you, the county magistrate, cannot escape the blame. Before I asked you about your crime, you came to me to complain first. snort! "

This cold snort made Fan Longhe's brows suddenly drip with cold sweat. He almost buried his head on the ground. He said in a trembling tone: "The master is wise and has a clear mind. I should not talk too much!"

Zhan Taiqing still had his back to the two of them, and didn't seem to want to say anything more. He just stared in the direction of Xuzhou calmly, and it took a long time before he left a word.

"Let's go find a place to heal first. You two in Tongling must be speechless. In three days, inform Hou Yuxiao to come here to see me. This Tongling rebellion is just the beginning. Your master will note down your culpability first. Investigate, the next war between the two states is an opportunity to make meritorious deeds, you must seize it."

"Subordinates obey!"

The two kowtowed like garlic and waited for a long time. When they raised their heads, they found that Zhan Taiqing had disappeared without knowing it.

The two took a deep breath and returned to the county together. They found a secluded place to start healing their wounds and waited for three days before notifying Hou Yuxiao.
