"Gu Ming, it's you!"
This was the Gu Ming whom he had met back in the Silvermoon Forest. Back then, this person had wanted to secretly attack him out of jealousy, but had instead been robbed by Old Liang of a small part of his pill fire. It could be said that he had stolen the chicken out of the water.
Gu Dai looked at Xiang Yun and gave a playful smile. So you're Xiang Yun, ah. I've heard many stories about you in Qin Feng City. Your Highness, Crown Prince Feng Yun, is truly disrespectful!
"Gu Ming, why are you here?" Xiang Yun's heart sank the moment he saw Gu Ming, vaguely having a bad premonition.
Gu Ming smiled playfully, "Your Highness, I am truly sorry. In order to guard this Qinfeng City for you, the six major sects have joined hands with my Allied Trade a.s.sociation to officially take over the defense of the city. We will be maintaining the operation of the Azure Flame True Lightning Formation, and the southern gate is being guarded."
Xiang Yun's eyes narrowed slightly, saying to Gu Ming, "So that's how it is. Since Brother Gu is the guardian of the south city gate, you can be considered to be working with me, the city lord. Now that I've brought my men over, I hope Brother Gu can make it convenient for us by opening the great array and let us in!"
Xiang Yun had already heard the intense sounds of fighting behind him, as well as the miserable shrieks coming from behind him. However, he forced himself to remain calm as he stared at Gu Ming.
"Haha, that's fine. Since Brother Xiang is the prince of the Wind Cloud Country and also the mayor of Qin Feng City, this city belongs to you. The city gates are naturally open for you at any time."
"Then please open the gates." Xiang Yun was already extremely anxious, but his voice was still calm and collected.
"Hur Hur, no rush." Gu Ming slowly said as he looked down at the Snow Wolf Cavalry that was engaged in a fierce battle with the Cloud Beast.
Gu Ming said with a fake smile, "Oh, Brother Xiang, you don't know, right? Our city guards have our own rules. As long as the Cloud Beast approaches within a hundred zhang of the city, the great formation cannot be withdrawn, and the city gates cannot be opened. Brother, I'm just following the rules. I'm really sorry."
Xiang Yun clenched his fists, letting out a crisp sound. Anger boiled in his heart as he coldly said, "Brother Gu, you mean you don't want us to enter the city?"
Gu Ming looked at Xiang Yun's furious gaze, the smile on his face growing even brighter as he waved his hands repeatedly.
I, your brother, will follow the rules. How about I give you a plan, and you and your soldiers will drive this cloud beast over a hundred zhang away. I'll give you guys a convenience so that you can open the city gate and let you in.
"Phew!"
Xiang Yun sucked in a deep breath, staring at the mocking, mocking expression on his face. The killing intent in his heart practically reached its peak in an instant.
Gu Ming hated him, but Xiang Yun did not care. Yet, at this moment, he was actually treating so many lives as child's play, not being able to reject the city gates. This was intolerable to Xiang Yun!
"Gu Ming, if I am lucky enough to survive today, I will make you pay a hundred times over in the future!"
Xiang Yun's gaze was cold and indifferent, without a single shred of emotion. His words were bone-chilling, causing Gu Ming to feel a wave of palpitations.
Two rays of cold light shot out from the latter's eyes as he stared at Xiang Yun, sending a sound transmission into his ears.
Xiang Yun merely gave Gu Ming a cold look and said nothing more. He then looked behind him, only to see that out of the one hundred plus Snow Wolf Cavalry soldiers, there were now only seventy to eighty people who were still struggling to hold on.
The cloud beasts in all directions charged forward savagely while the flying cloud beasts occasionally launched sneak attacks on them. Everyone was caught off guard, and if they weren't careful, they would be knocked into a small gap and be dragged into the pack of beasts.
No matter how valiant the Snow Wolf Cavalry soldiers were, when they were faced with this group of bloodthirsty wild beasts, their bodies were instantly torn apart. It was an appalling scene of devastation!
As for the cloud beasts flying above them, if they weren't careful, they would be imbedded into their helmets by their sharp claws and their spirits would be lifted off their heads to peck at their brains!
Suddenly, in the middle of the dense horde of beasts, a eight-legged, crystalline, ruby shaped giant spider leapt high into the air. It was a Bloodjade spider, and it pounced towards the top of their heads!
The two of them were shocked. They circulated their strength to try and break free, but what shocked them was that no matter how hard they tried, the threads were stuck in their armor, unable to break free.
At this moment, saliva was dripping from the corners of the Cloud Beasts' mouths as they charged forward, wanting to divide up the two of them.
Right at this moment of crisis, a figure flew over the two's heads, a cold light flashed, the Bloodjade Spider's thread broke, and Ma Qi and Zhu Kai were able to escape.
Regardless of whether it was the two of them or the other soldiers of the Snow Wolf Cavalry, they had all heard the conversation below the city walls. They knew it was hopeless to enter the city, but they still risked their lives to protect Xiang Yun!
Xiang Yun's eyes finally reddened as he looked at the soldiers who were hovering on the brink of life and death, but their gazes were still hot, tenacious, and loyal. His body trembled slightly as he raised the Blue Profound sword in his hand high into the air!
"Brothers, because of me, you fell into a hopeless situation this time. I've let you down. Today, I, Xiang Yun, will share life and death with all of you! Kill him to our heart's content!"
"But I swear to a soldier that if I, Xiang Yun, do not cease living here today, I will definitely avenge all of you! "If we die here, we will have a group of brothers accompanying us on the Road to River Styx!"
"Haha, with His Highness' words, even if we die, we have no regrets. Brothers, kill him quickly!"
At this moment, both Ma Duan and Zhu Kai were filled with boundless bravado. To be able to be so abandoned by the person he was loyal to …
To treat each other with one's life was indeed death without regret!
Xiang Yun directly charged towards the Blood Jade Spider, fighting it. The latter was at the early stage of the General Level, comparable to a human at the middle stage of the Profound Cloud Realm.
Xiang Yun had now broken through to the middle stage of the Yellow Cloud Realm. Relying on his deep cloud energy and blood energy, he was actually able to fight evenly with the spider and not be at a disadvantage at all.
Gu Ming, who was standing on top of the city wall, looked at the crowd below him and muttered to himself with a trace of disdain on his face.
"You're just a mere heir of a common family, and yet you dare to s.n.a.t.c.h Ning'er from me? I want to see just how you're going to shout in front of me after your bones have been chewed into pieces by a Cloud Beast!"
While Xiang Yun was fighting with the Blood Jade Spider, he seemed to be fighting without any worries, but in reality, he was quietly using the power of his spiritual will to probe into the formation. He wanted to sense the position of the old man; in this situation, only if the old man came, would he be able to open the formation.
"Hehe, you want to use your spiritual will to call for help?"
Gu Ming was an alchemist at the top of the city wall. He was extremely sensitive to the perception of spiritual will and instantly saw through everything.
Ignorant child, this Blue Flames True Thunder Array is a Grade 8 Great Array. Without the control of my array token, forget about telepathic thoughts, even a soul should not be able to take half a step inside.
Xiang Yun dodged the spider's attack, but when he heard the mocking laughter of Gu Ming behind him, his expression changed. He had not expected this array formation to be so extraordinary, to actually be able to isolate the power of spiritual will.
"Am I really going to die here?"
A sudden clap of thunder suddenly flashed through Xiang Yun's mind, as if he had grasped something in an instant. Xiang Yun thought hard, then his eyes suddenly lit up!
"Right, a thousand miles of sound transmission!"
Xiang Yun immediately activated the Myriad Mile Sound Transmission Technique as he loudly shouted!
At this moment, at the northern gate of the Qinfeng City, an old man was sitting on the top of the city wall. At the northern gate of the Qinfeng City, an old man was sitting at the top of the city wall.
In the next moment, he looked towards the south of the city and spoke in surprise.
Before his voice fell, he had already turned into a streak of light and instantly shot towards the south of the Qin Feng City!
In the blink of an eye, the old man had pa.s.sed through the small city and appeared on top of the city walls of the southern part of the city. He lowered his head to look outside the city and immediately saw Xiang Yun, Snow Wolf Cavalry, and the rest that were battling the Cloud Beast.
Old Liang's expression instantly darkened as he looked at the sealed formation and the ground littered with fresh blood and corpses. His gaze instantly locked onto Gu Ming, who was standing at the top of the city wall with a cold smile on his face!
