Chapter 169 Death is imminent
"What bullshit 'Thousand Fantasy Artisans', the divine fire thunder they made almost buried me in the ground!"

Not long after Liu Qi and the others left, with a burst of curses, a man walked out of the stone door and entered the underground palace hall. His clothes and hair were covered with dust, as if he had just been dug out of the earth.

"Mom, please be patient, wait until I get back..." The man dusted off the dust on his body and was about to curse. Suddenly, a majestic bronze door appeared in front of him. His pupils shrank instantly, and then his eyes slowly He slowly opened his eyes until fear appeared in his eyes.

"Fire! Fire! Help—"

The shrill screams echoed in the underground palace hall, causing the middle-aged Taoist who had just stepped into the stone gate to frown slightly, and then the arm hanging by his side was raised instantly, and the long sword still in the sheath in his hand clanged, He stood in front of him, blocking the man who was retreating hastily.

"what--"

"Help!"

After the staggering retreating figure was stopped, he turned over and fell to the ground, rolling around crazily and flapping his clothes, as if his body was really on fire.

Looking at the crazy man on the ground, the middle-aged Taoist couldn't help but feel cold. Just when he was about to raise his head, he seemed to have thought of something. He quickly lowered his head, then handed the sword in his right hand to his left hand, and then took it out from the sleeve of his left hand. A piece of black gauze covered his eyes.

The middle-aged Taoist who was blindfolded in black gauze slowly raised his eyes and looked in the direction of the bronze door. After the silhouette of the door appeared in front of his eyes, the Taoist couldn't help but froze his eyes, and then murmured softly: "It's really like this. A door!"

"Zhenren Liuyun!" Liu Zongxun turned around, bowed slightly to the middle-aged Taoist with a solemn expression, "Kill the traitor demon queen, and the opportunity to become famous in the world is right in front of you!"

As he spoke, he paused slightly, then walked slowly through the crowd and came to the middle-aged Taoist. After looking around, he said in a solemn voice: "The traitor Zhou Weiyang's escape route has been cut off. He is now trapped in this underground palace. It’s hard to fly without wings.”

Liu Zongxun, who had been silent all the time, couldn't help but move his eyes slightly when he saw Zhou's frustration with Jiang Quan, and then said: "Liu, like everyone else, knows very little about this bronze door, but since Fu Your Excellency asked you to prepare black gauze in advance, I guess there must be a reason for it."

The middle-aged Taoist slowly turned his head to look at the disciple who had just spoken, and then said coldly: "If you want to be like him, you can take off the black veil and take a look at the bronze gate."

After this sharp shout, the Taoist heard the footsteps behind the stone door and stopped one after another. He breathed a sigh of relief and then said in a solemn voice: "Everyone should cover their eyes with black gauze. After entering, don't look at the door directly opposite." door!"

"Jiang Quan, Cuixiang..."

This sudden sentence instantly caused everyone, including the middle-aged Taoist, to look at the position of the stone door behind them.

"Besides...even if there is a relationship, is there really any friendship between master and servant?"

When Zhou heard this, her mouth opened slightly, but she couldn't say a word.

At this time, the man on the ground had stopped rolling, curled up into a ball, and moaned feebly. He had not yet come out of the illusion.

The disciple who just spoke immediately shrank his head when he heard this, and obediently retreated into the crowd.

Liu Zongxun, whose face was covered with dust, was seen standing silently in front of the stone door. Behind him were Zhou and Liu Xiangxiang, who were also covered in dust. The mother and daughter were cuddling together. Zhou looked at Liu Zongxun with resentful eyes from time to time. He gave the person who had just asked the question a hard look.

"Mrs. Liu doesn't have to look at me like that." Jiang Quan smiled slightly and said slowly, "Mrs. Liu must be aware of how much blood debt the 'fierce god' Kui Niu has on his hands. Our Qixia sect is here today just to do justice for heaven. Come on, I will never kill innocent people indiscriminately. After the incident is completed, Jiang will personally send Mr. Liu and his family back to his house."

Soon after, about ten people walked in slowly. Like the middle-aged Taoist, everyone covered their eyes with a piece of black gauze. Although some things could be seen through the gaps in the black gauze, everything in front of them was It was as if it was shrouded in a looming black mist.

The curve at the corner of Jiang Quan's mouth instantly smoothed away, and then he said in a cold voice: "Mrs. Liu, there is no need to mention my cousin. Not to mention that she has redeemed herself and left the house, and has nothing to do with your Liu family."

"Master Liu, may I ask what's so weird about this door? Why do we martial arts practitioners have to cover our eyes with black gauze, but you don't?"

Then his ears moved slightly and he heard the footsteps coming from the stone door behind him, so his face sank and he immediately shouted loudly: "Don't come in yet!"

"Help, help...there's a fire..."

"Yes!" A uniform voice came from behind the stone door.

Zhou's face changed when she heard this, especially when Jiang Quan mentioned the murder at the hands of the "fierce god" Kui Niu. She lowered her head with some guilt, but looking at the messy Liu Xiangxiang next to her, Zhou couldn't help but bite her. Gritting his teeth, he raised his head and said:

"What's wrong with him?" someone couldn't help but ask.

"Ahem, cough..." The middle-aged Taoist Master Liuyun, the head of the Qixia Sect, almost lost his temper when he heard this!
With his eyes covered with black gauze, he could only see the blurry figure of Liu Zongxun, thinking that these weak scholars seemed powerless, but they were braver than the sky!

The corners of Master Liuyun's mouth twitched slightly: "Master Liu, we will discuss these matters later. The most urgent thing is to meet with Master Jiang and the others."

How could Liu Zongxun not hear the rejection in Master Liu Yun's words? Even what Master Liu Yun's direct disciple said just now was to defeat the "fierce god" Kui Niu, not Zhou Weiyang himself.

Liu Zongxun pursed his lips tightly, and anger instantly appeared in his eyes.

He didn't understand why such painstaking calculations were needed to deal with Zhou Weiyang, who was already terminally ill!
But Liu Zongxun also knew in his heart that if he wanted to completely eliminate Zhou Weiyang's group, these people in the world would have to take action.

Liu Zongxun lowered his eyes in silence, looked at his hands, and slowly clenched them into fists under his gaze.

In the final analysis...it's because I am a weak scholar.

……

At this time, Liu Qi had already followed Zhou Mi and the others out of the narrow tunnel.

Here is a brightly lit palace.

Liu Qi looked around and looked at the dark night outside the door and window, and his eyes suddenly filled with suspicion.

And at this moment, a pleasant voice sounded in my ears: "No need to look, you just visited this place a few days ago."

Liu Qi's eyes narrowed and two words popped out of his mouth: "Imperial Palace!"

Zhou Mi, who had already sat on the couch, nodded slightly: "The most dangerous place is often the safest place. Xiao Wenhuai and Fu Qingshu probably would never have thought that the other entrance to the underground palace is in the imperial palace."

"They would never have thought..." Zhou Mi tilted his head slightly and looked at the door leading to the back hall, "Wei Yang has always been in the palace."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a vigorous figure slowly walking out of the door of the apse. As the red armor appeared in everyone's sight, Liu Qicai recognized that the person was Suzaku, one of the four generals of Tianzun.

"Empress!" Zhuque first bowed to the Queen Mother, and then saw Liu Qi standing below. His eyes stayed on Liu Qi's face for a moment, and then a look of surprise appeared in his eyes: "It's you!"

Liu Qi said expressionlessly: "General Suzaku, long time no see."

"Liu Qiniang..." Suzaku opened his eyes slightly, looking at Liu Qi with disbelief. Until he saw the hairpin on Liu Qi's head, his face suddenly turned cold, and he turned his head and glared at the person on the other side. Bai Ze meditates and pranayama.

Looking at Bai Ze's pale face, Suzaku's eyes darkened, and then he walked quickly to Bai Ze, looked down at him, and said coldly: "Are you still alive?"

Bai Ze slowly opened his eyes and looked up at Suzaku: "Yinglong... is dead."

When Zhuque heard this, his figure swayed, and then his face instantly turned pale, and he murmured in a low voice: "Second brother..."

... This palace was the palace where Zhou Mi once lived. Although she later moved to the palace dedicated to the Queen Mother, Xiao Wenhuai sealed the palace and did not allocate it to the concubines.

Liu Qi stood in front of the palace door, staring at the night outside through the door and window. She thought to herself that since she had already come out, why not just take Shen Ying and fight all the way out?

As for Shen Ying, who had just recovered from a serious illness and was thin, she was exhausted both physically and mentally after experiencing so many things today, and soon her head fell into sleep bit by bit.

When Liu Qi turned around, she found that Zhou Mi had already hugged Shen Ying, who was sleeping soundly, onto the bed.

As if feeling the softness coming from under her body, Shen Ying, who was curled up, stretched her body slightly, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and then she called out "Grandpa" indistinctly.

Seeing this, Zhou Mi couldn't help but reach out and touch Shen Ying's forehead, and then sighed softly: "He is also a poor child."

Liu Qi walked over, stepped up the stairs, and came to the Queen Mother's exclusive room. She glanced at Shen Ying, who was sleeping deeply, then looked at Zhou Mi, and asked softly: "What are you going to do?"

Zhou Mi slowly raised his eyes after hearing this: "Wait."

Liu Qi frowned: "Wait?"

Zhou Mi nodded slightly, then looked outside the palace, and said unhurriedly: "When daybreak, everything will be over."

Liu Qi: "Your helper won't arrive until after dawn?"

Zhou Mi smiled, but did not answer Liu Qi's question directly. Instead, he looked directly into Liu Qi's eyes and said softly: "Are you planning to leave?"

Liu Qi's eyes moved slightly, but she didn't speak.

Zhou Mi Yingying stood up, her face regained its grace and dignity, and said calmly: "With your current martial arts skills, it is certainly easy to leave the capital with Shen Zhuang's granddaughter, but just leaving the capital like this... Are you really willing? "

Liu Qi's eyes were as calm as a flat lake: "Whether I am willing or not is secondary, but my queen...can you really hold on until dawn?"

Zhou Mi frowned slightly: "What do you want to say?"

"I want to say...get in!"

Liu Qi suddenly turned around, then looked at the door of the palace and shouted loudly. A sudden energy surged from her body and she rolled towards the door of the palace.

Clang!

The door of the palace opened instantly, and a rickety figure stumbled in. He was instantly enveloped by the energy surging from Liu Qi's body, but the sparkling Qi suddenly condensed on the body of Liu Qi, and in an instant he was All the surging energy disappeared.

"Hehehe..."

A hoarse voice instantly echoed in the palace, and then the rickety figure slowly took two steps forward, his wrinkled face slowly raised, and his small eyes flickered as he looked at Liu Qi.

"Originally born from the same root, why is it too urgent to fry each other."

The rickety old man with a wrinkled face shook his head and recited a poem, then looked at Liu Qi with a smile and said, "I never thought that one day I would meet the descendant of Yimu Palace."

Liu Qi looked at the sparkling aura around the old man, and then replied calmly: "Last time in the Wanfu Palace, was that you the rat that hid his head and tail?"

Hearing Liu Qi call him a rat, the anger in the old man's eyes disappeared in a flash, and the smile on his face became warmer: "Last time, the girl took away the old granddaughter's Ruoshui sword. I think she was aware of it."

Liu Qi's eyes narrowed slightly, thinking that the sword taken from Nangong Yu was actually called Ruoshui Sword.

Liu Qi heard the old man call Nangong Yu his granddaughter, and the identity of this person was revealed. It was Nangong Yu's grandfather who should have been dead long ago, but now he was standing in front of Liu Qi alive.

As for the sparkling aura around him, which is like water, it is probably inseparable from the lineage of the Seventh Heavenly Water Palace.

Seeing that Liu Qi was a little shy, the old man immediately moved his eyes to Zhou Mi and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is so beautiful that this old man dare not look directly at her. It is no wonder that she was able to bewitch the late emperor and lose his mind. The country and the country have been handed over to outsiders."

Zhou Mi said calmly: "Old Master Nangong, please be careful in your words and deeds. Listening to your meaning, are you saying that the current emperor is not of the blood of the previous emperor?"

"Hmph, you're glib." The old man was stunned for a moment, then sneered quickly, "Of course I know who I'm talking about. The heroes gathered together today to eliminate this harm to the world."

As soon as he finished speaking, countless firelights suddenly lit up in the distance, and then countless footsteps approached the palace.

When Bai Ze heard the noise in the distance, his expression changed instantly, and then he pulled Suzaku and stood in front of Zhou Mi, standing side by side with Liu Qi, and then said softly: "Miss Liu, if the situation is not right later, I hope you can Take the queen and leave."

"Hahahaha..." As a top expert, the old man naturally heard Bai Ze's words, so he laughed loudly, "If you don't know that you are about to die, even if you have three heads and six arms, you can't even think of stepping out of this palace today. .”

"The Emperor has arrived——"

"The Emperor has arrived——"

"The Emperor has arrived——"

As the melodious voice came from outside the palace, the old man's eyes suddenly showed a proud look, and then he slowly moved two steps to make way for the position in the middle of the palace door.

Liu Qi's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he heard the sound of strong wind whistling in his ears, and saw a sharp figure piercing through the night outside the palace, landing next to the old man as fast as lightning.

A gloomy gaze swept over everyone in the palace, and then a sharp voice suddenly reached everyone's ears: "The emperor has arrived, why are you waiting so stupidly? Why don't you hurry out of the palace and kneel to greet him, otherwise, hum, you will all Just wait for your head to move!”

After saying that, the man dressed as an eunuch raised his head slightly and looked at Zhou Mi with a haughty expression. Just as he was about to speak, a purple light suddenly flashed in front of his eyes.

Canglang——

The sound of the sword was heard, and the eunuch had a look of shock on his face, and then his pupils slowly drooped, and his trembling hand touched his neck...

The proud smile on the old man's face who was standing next to the eunuch suddenly faded. He saw that the eunuch's hand touching his neck suddenly stopped, and then his head tilted and he fell directly. "Gululu" rolled all the way to his feet.

Facing the old man's gaze, the eunuch opened and closed his lips slightly, as if he wanted to say something.

But at this moment, the old man's small eyes instantly opened several times, and then his neck turned stiffly, and he looked back in the direction of Liu Qi.

Cang——

Liu Qi slowly put the Jingji Knife back into its sheath, and then faintly uttered two words:

"Noisy!"
