Volume 4: Holy Capital Tribulation Chapter 256 Demonic Temple
"Why... do you look down on me so much?" The Taoist Master called Xiang'er sneered, "Do you know how I have been through these eighteen years?
"I think about what you did for me all the time. It is because of this strong belief that I have achieved what I have today!
"What Xuanmen has been unable to do for nearly a hundred years, I have achieved today!"
As they were talking, the assassins moved forward and the situation became increasingly critical.
Those Qilin Guards fought desperately, but were all blocked outside the crowd by the assassins, and two of them were hit by several hidden weapons and were almost disabled.
"Then..." Empress Dowager Lin still stood at the door of the secret room like a Buddha statue, and asked angrily, "What do you want? Do you want to kill me?"
"No, you're dreaming!" said the female Taoist priest, "I've said before that I want you to experience the suffering I've endured!"
After saying this, the female Taoist priest no longer hesitated. She waved her jade hand and the two young female assassins in the front raised their swords and flew towards Empress Dowager Lin.
ah……
ah……
Seeing the enemy suddenly take action to harm the Queen Mother, everyone's heart was in their throat.
But distant water cannot quench immediate thirst. Whether it was the Qilin Guards or Xu Zun and others, they were all blocked by the assassins on the periphery and no one could get close.
Just as the two young female assassins were about to approach Empress Dowager , a trace of panic finally appeared on her face.
However, before her panic was fully revealed, her pupils suddenly contracted and turned into a look of surprise.
Because she saw a black shadow suddenly appear in front of her, and with a flash of blood, she saw strange blood flowers suddenly burst out from the necks of the two female assassins!
When he looked more closely, he saw a woman in black wearing a veil standing in front of him. It was Ku Niang!
The woman raised her hands slightly, holding the two female assassins’ bright red throats!!!
ah……
Suddenly seeing this incredible scene, the assassins were stunned.
In this moment of shock, Ku Niang turned around and gently pushed Empress Dowager Lin, who staggered back and retreated into the secret room.
While pushing gently, Ku Niang said two words for the first time: "Close the door."
Although Empress Dowager Lin was shocked, she reacted quickly and realized that the woman in black was protecting her. She pressed the mechanism without hesitation and the secret rooms were closed.
Seeing that the secret room was closed, the assassins in the front naturally could not turn a blind eye without the reminder of the female Taoist priest, and several of them immediately flew out and tried to rush into the secret room.
However, with a flick of Ku Niang's wrist, the two tracheas hit those who were rushing towards the secret room.
Although the trachea could not hurt people, it still knocked the first two people to the ground. When their movements stopped, the secret rooms suddenly closed.
"ah!!?"
At this point, the female Taoist priest could no longer remain calm. She could never have imagined that such a person with strange martial arts and a ghostly appearance would appear!
However, although she was frightened, she turned her head towards the dragon pillar as soon as possible. As long as she pressed the switch, the stone door of the secret room could still be opened.
However, all of this was planned by Xu Zun, and he had already led his men to the front of the dragon ball.
As early as when the female Taoist priest was chatting with Queen Mother Lin, Xu Zun quietly whispered in Ku Niang's ear, asking her to do him a big favor and go in and push the Queen Mother back to the secret room.
He himself, along with Huo Anu and others, rushed towards the dragon pillar at the first opportunity.
Although Xu Zun and others were too far away from the secret room, they were very close to the dragon pillar. They rushed over and caught the other party off guard, seizing the position of the dragon pillar.
At this moment, Xu Zun didn't need to say anything, everyone knew the importance of the Dragon Pillar. As long as they could protect the Dragon Pillar and prevent the other party from pressing the mechanism, they would be able to protect the Queen Mother.
Reinforcements will arrive soon, and the only thing they have to do now is to hold on.
“Ah…” Seeing the sudden change in the situation, the female Taoist priest screamed furiously, “Kill them! Kill them all! If we can’t open the secret room today, none of you will survive!!!”
The same principle, there is no need for the female Taoist to say much, the Xuanmen assassins also understand this principle. Only by opening the secret room and controlling the Queen Mother can they have a chance of escaping.
Otherwise, there is only one way out: death!
As a result, the situation in the Wanfu Palace Hall reached its peak in an instant. Many Xuanmen assassins shouted frantically and killed Xu Zun and others, each one like a tiger or a wolf.
Swish, swish, swish…
Before they arrived, the assassins' darts and arrows came like raindrops, instantly knocking down several guards.
Bang...
Huo Anu immediately opened his iron umbrella to block the arrows from the sky.
But as soon as she blocked the attack, many assassins came close to her and a fierce fight broke out. Both sides fought with all their might after just one encounter.
With the sound of clinking weapons colliding, the two sides started a life-and-death battle.
Seeing the fight breaking out here, the morale of Qilin Guards and Zhao Yu was boosted. They immediately brandished their weapons and rushed towards the assassins.
At the same time, Ku Niang had completed her mission and wanted to rush back to Xu Zun.
However, her way has been blocked by three people, namely Gongsun Yelang, the Dark Demon Luo Jia, and the Sword Saint Qu Zhenbai.
However, standing in front of Ku Niang, these three people no longer had the confidence they had before, and they all stared at Ku Niang with high vigilance.
As the saying goes, an expert makes a move as soon as he makes a move. With just one strike just now, these three people have realized that Ku Niang is not an ordinary master, and is not a good person.
"If I'm not mistaken," said the Dark Demon Luo Jia, "you should be the Demon Sha who has been in the limelight recently, right?"
"Ah? It's actually her!?" Qu Zhenbai was surprised. "I heard that Master Long Ding from Yuezhou and Master Qiankun from Tangzhou both died at the hands of this person! And... she's a woman..."
"Yes, I've heard about it too," Gongsun Yelang said. "She specializes in pulling out people's tracheas with her bare hands. She's even more sinister than Lao Luo. There's even a rumor that she's the apprentice of Bloody Evil Palm Mao Jifang!"
call……
Hearing the three people talking like this, the Xuanmen assassins who were eager to try took a step back.
They had never heard of the name Mosha, but the name Mao Jifang was a name that was more frightening than Yue Jinglei, the master of the Hundred-Step Divine Fist.
As the saying goes in the martial arts world, once the Blood Evil appears, he will sweep across the martial arts world. Among the top ten masters today, Mao Jifang has long been ranked first!
It is said that Mao Jifang is moody, bad-tempered, and vindictive, so almost no one in the underworld dares to mess with him.
If this woman is really Mao Jifang's apprentice, then anyone who takes action against her must consider the consequences.
"But... after all, there is no real evidence," Gongsun Yelang showed off his sharp steel claws, got into a fighting stance, and said, "Is it really as the legend says? I have to check it myself!"
"Yes," Luo Jia tilted his head towards Qu Zhenbai, "Doesn't Saint Qu want to be the only woman among the ten great masters of Daxuan?
"If you can't even deal with a female demon like this, what's the point of talking about the top ten masters?"
"Well," Qu Zhenbai nodded slightly, "Old Luo's words are indeed quite sinister, but I hope you know what we are here for today."
"Understood! Hahaha..." Luo Jia chuckled and showed his two swords, "Time is precious, don't waste it, let's attack together..."
After saying that, the three of them waved their weapons in tacit understanding and rushed towards Ku Niang...
