Volume 3: Evil Ghosts Eat People Chapter 196: The War Escalates (Part 2)
Before this, a trace of worry had flashed through Xu Zun's mind.
If Ku Niang disappeared, would Timur Ani take the opportunity to plot against me?
This woman had been hiding in the crowd and had never made a move. If she did something bad to him at this time, it would probably make his situation even worse .
But he didn't expect that after picking up a sword, Annie jumped over him and killed the enemy with her own hands!
Although Ani's fighting power is the same as Zhao Yu and Huo Anu, she has a firm grasp of her momentum.
But her sword was sharp and her moves were ruthless. Once she attacked, she caught the enemy off guard like a tiger.
Ani had a bad temper and her moves were unconventional. She would stab almost anyone she saw, making the enemies hesitate like frightened birds. This immediately relieved the pressure on Huo Anu and the others.
Especially the martial artist who was fighting fiercely with Zhao Yu. His swordsmanship was on par with Zhao Yu's, and he had to concentrate fully to be able to fight against him.
But as the sound of a sharp sword breaking through the air flashed behind him, the martial artist was so scared that he quickly dodged. Looking back, he saw that it was indeed Annie who was stabbing him with a sword.
Annie was already wearing a veil, and her ruthless moves and sharp swordsmanship made her seem even more mysterious.
The martial artist was startled and quickly swung his sword to block, but Ani simply swung her sword suddenly, and when she saw that her first strike missed, she had already jumped to the other side to stab someone else.
But in doing so, the martial artist was distracted, and Zhao Yu took the opportunity to swing his sword, hitting the martial artist, forcing him to retreat repeatedly and barely able to parry.
However, this was just the beginning. The martial artist managed to block Zhao Yu's heavy sword attack, but he didn't expect that Annie would come back and stab him in the back again.
ah!!?
The martial artist was frightened and managed to dodge the sword light, but Zhao Yu finally found his flaw and knocked him to the ground with one blow!
Fortunately, this person reacted quickly and blocked Zhao Yu's fatal blow with his knife when he fell to the ground. After falling to the ground, he immediately rolled over and dodged Zhao Yu's several knives...
At this moment, although Ani's joining temporarily alleviated Xu Zun's decline, the overall environment is still not good.
Hou Zhen was stabbed with a knife, his entire arm was stained red. Dai Long also had blood on his mouth and suffered internal injuries, but the two of them still gritted their teeth and persisted, protecting Xu Zun tightly in the circle.
Looking at the Tan Gang and the Sanhe Gang, they were already blood-thirsty and no one could tell who was who. People fell in pools of blood one after another, and screams were heard everywhere.
Li Ronger was already covered in blood, but she was still fighting desperately with the enemy.
Perhaps the enemy had a clear target. As the leader of the Sanhe Gang, Li Ronger was also the main target that the other party wanted to kill.
Therefore, there were a lot of enemies attacking Li Ronger. Even though there were masters from the Sanhe Gang to help, no one knew who was their own, so the fight was extremely chaotic.
Li Ronger was already seriously injured, and after a long battle, she was no longer able to hold on and was in danger...
"Sir," Huo Anu gave Xu Zun some advice while fighting the enemy, "The situation is not good, let's rush out first!"
However, Xu Zun did not respond, but stared at the other side of Guanlan Hall and pondered for a few seconds, then shouted to Elder Zhuang Jingcheng:
"Elder Zhuang, are you really planning to just keep watching the fun?"
"this……"
At this time, the only people who did not fall into chaos were those from the Zishan Sect.
Since the traitors within their ranks have been purged, they are now all gathered together, keeping a high level of vigilance.
Although there were rebels who broke into their camp before, they were all dealt with by the elders with superb martial arts skills.
But even so, everyone in Zishan Sect was terrified and suspicious. Everyone was worried that there would be a traitor around them.
God knows if there are problems among those elders?
Therefore, they did not stand aside and watch the fun, but were alert to others and paid attention to their surroundings, for fear of losing their lives inadvertently.
At this moment, hearing Xu Zun's question, Zhuang Jingcheng naturally understood what Xu Zun meant and suddenly fell into hesitation.
"If Li Rong'er, I, and this young master died," Xu Zun asked, "do you think it would be good for your Zishan Sect?"
"this……"
Zhuang Jingcheng naturally understood this truth. If Xu Zun and others died in Guanlan Palace, then the government, Sanhe Gang and Tan Gang would naturally regard Zishan Sect as their mortal enemy and would fight to the death.
The Zishan sect will become the target of public criticism, and not only will it be unable to protect itself, it may even be wiped out.
At this moment, the only way to resolve this crisis is to protect the important figures of these gangs.
But……
Who can guarantee that there are no traitors in their Zishan Sect?
If a traitor takes advantage of the chaos to attack, the Zishan Sect will probably not be able to escape the disaster.
Another point is that the scene was so chaotic that they didn’t know what to do.
"Let the elders come over to resolve the crisis first," Xu Zun reminded, "At least the people who want to kill me and Li Ronger are definitely not good people, right?"
"oh……"
Zhuang Jingcheng suddenly realized that Xu Zun's simple words had hit the nail on the head.
Firstly, the Zishan Sect doesn’t need to mobilize all its forces, they just need to ask the elders to come and help.
Secondly, as long as the lives of Xu Zun, Li Ronger and the young leader of the Tan Gang can be saved, the merit will be complete.
"If any elder is unwilling to contribute," Xu Zun shouted loudly, "it means that elder is up to something!"
These words are so damaging, it is clearly a naked moral kidnapping.
"Okay!" Zhuang Jingcheng turned around and said, "Elders, no matter what, we can't let Lord Xu and Boss Li get into trouble today. I'll go first, you guys can handle it yourselves!"
After saying that, Zhuang Jingcheng picked up his azure sword, leaped a few steps to Li Ronger's side, and with just a few sword strikes, he killed a gangster who was about to assassinate Li Ronger on the spot.
Seeing that Zhuang Jingcheng had already taken action, how could the other elders just sit there and watch? They also rushed into the camp with their weapons.
It has to be said that there is a reason why Zishan Sect can become the largest sect in Yonghui. Even without the headmaster Wanqi Feng and Jiao Chengtong, the martial arts of the other elders are equally amazing.
As soon as the elders rushed into the camp, they beat the criminals to the ground, and they fell to the ground in the blink of an eye.
As a result, the morale of Huo Anu and others was greatly boosted, and they fought back together, quickly repelling the besieging enemies.
As the number of criminals decreased dramatically, the situation on the field also changed.
The people who were fighting retreated and stopped killing indiscriminately. In this case, those who took the initiative to attack others were clearly traitors!
The masters of various gangs, together with several elders of Zishan Sect, surrounded these traitors and quickly hacked them to death.
It was not until this point that the criminals realized that the situation was hopeless and they immediately fled, trying to escape from the hall.
But how could Huo Anu and others who had recovered from their shock let them succeed? They had already blocked the palace door, making it impossible for them to escape!
puff……
At this moment, Zhao Yu also successfully cut off the martial artist's arm, maintaining his reputation as the "Arm-Chopping Demon".
However, the martial artist had suffered severe injuries before, and died after his arm was removed.
In the hall, the shouting and screaming gradually subsided, and the chaos was finally brought under control.
Seeing this, the remaining gangsters had no choice but to surrender and kneel down at the entrance of the hall.
And at this moment, another incident happened, which made these rebellious gangsters completely despair.
With a scream, a man in a gray tights fell from the beam and fell right in the middle of the crowd.
puff……
The man was seriously injured in the fall and spurted out blood on the spot, holding his chest and gasping for breath.
"ah!!?"
Seeing the injured man in gray, the elders of Zishan Sect, led by Zhuang Jingcheng, all exclaimed in surprise.
Because, this person is none other than the head of their Zishan sect——Wanqi Feng!!!
