Chapter 142 Wu Family Crisis
"Brother Duomu, what's wrong?" the burly man asked.
"Nothing, just a trivial matter. Boss Hu, I'll excuse myself for a moment and go deal with this matter. Let Taoist Xiuyuan take you to the Fairy Valley of Tianlang City first, and I'll be back soon." The thin bamboo-like Taoist said to the burly man.
The two men didn't take it seriously when they heard it was a trivial matter. The thin bamboo-like Taoist took out a boat-shaped magic weapon and threw it into the air, jumped on it and flew away to the southeast.
The burly man and the Buddhist monk Xiuyuan didn't stay for long. After the thin bamboo-like Taoist left, the two also sacrificed the flying magic weapon and flew away to the northeast.
Wu Yan didn't rush out, but continued to stay in the stone cave. He didn't walk out of the stone cave until there was no movement outside for half a day.
Having found a place suitable for cultivation, Wu Yan no longer planned to go to other places to check, and flew directly towards his hometown Qing County. After all, the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain is too huge, and there are unknown dangers underground in many places, so Wu Yan did not dare to take too many risks.
At this time, Wu Yan was very excited. Thinking that he could see his parents and relatives again after a long absence, he could not help but fly faster.
...
The martial arts field outside the inner courtyard of Wujiabao was full of traces of fierce fighting. However, the fierce battle seemed to be over, and the guards were cleaning up the corpses and blood around the martial arts field.
However, in a courtyard between the martial arts field and the inner house, there were still several people from Wujiabao confronting Yun Hezi. There were two corpses lying next to them. From Yun Hezi's ugly and embarrassed face, it can be seen that these two corpses were his two fellow cultivators. However, the corpses had been corroded and bloody, and the original true appearance could not be seen at all.
The things on the two people were still preserved, and no one dared to move.
The four brothers of the Tang family stood at the four corners of the yard, their hands in deerskin gloves raised high and pointed at Yun Hezi in the center. Judging from the posture, if he made the slightest move, the four would greet him with the hidden weapons in their hands.
Yun Hezi was held by two other people at this time. Opposite him was Wu Shan, the lord of Wujiabao, and behind him was an elegant middle-aged man whom Yun Hezi had never seen before.
Jiang Xieming and Linghu Tao were injured by the invisible sword energy of these two people who broke through the defense of the body protection talisman. This made the four brothers of the Tang family who had been waiting for an opportunity nearby release poisonous hidden weapons and kill Jiang Xieming and Linghu Tao.
Yun Hezi had lost his usual elegance and calmness at this time. He was unaware that his whole body was soaked with cold sweat. He was thinking about how to get away at this moment.
Wu Shan stared at the Taoist priest who was still resisting in front of him, but couldn't help showing a proud look on his face. What if he was a cultivator? Wasn't he killed by mortals like them?
"Yun Hezi, why don't you surrender? Do you really want this castle lord to send you to death?" Wu Shan's awe of the immortal cultivators disappeared with the poisoning of the two immortal cultivators, and he pointed at Yun Hezi with a proud face.
"Wu Shan, you'd better understand what you are doing! If you know what's good for you, let me go. These two people have a grudge against your brother Wu Yan. I am an old acquaintance of Brother Wu Yan. This time I was forced to find Brother Wu Yan. If you kill me, you will definitely provoke our loose cultivator alliance. The leader of our loose cultivator alliance, Taoist Duomu, is definitely someone you can't afford to provoke. He is a senior master in the foundation building period. He can destroy your small Wujiabao in a blink of an eye." Yun Hezi threatened fiercely.
"Bah! Stop bragging in front of me. You cultivators are nothing but that. I'm not afraid of his many eyes. Come on, I'll kill one if you come, I'll kill two if you come! Yun Hezi, you are also an old acquaintance of my eldest brother, but you are so shameless, immoral, and ungrateful, so don't blame me for being ruthless!" Wu Shan waved his hand, and dozens of ambush crossbowmen appeared on all sides of the courtyard wall.
These crossbowmen are all good at martial arts, and the crossbows in their hands are coated with poison. They all aimed their crossbows at Yun Hezi in the center, making Yun Hezi's face even uglier.
Yun Hezi didn't care about these crossbowmen, even the four brothers of the Tang family, but he couldn't help but care about Wu Shan in front of him and Lu Xuanyu behind him.
The martial arts of these two people are too terrible. They can actually perform invisible sword energy, such a profound skill of transforming true qi into sword, out of thin air. Moreover, such ordinary skills can actually break the protective talisman of the cultivator. This is too much of a shock to Yun Hezi.
Yun Hezi's eyes rolled around, thinking about how to get out. However, Wu Shan's patience seemed limited. Seeing that Yun Hezi didn't know what was good for him and didn't surrender, he winked at Lu Xuanyu and planned to use invisible sword energy again to poison this person to death here.
Needless to say, the two of them understood the principle of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots. It is impossible to let Yun Hezi leave today. The reason why Wu Shan delayed and didn't take action was that he wanted to capture this person and force him to tell the truth about the loose cultivator alliance and the other two enemies, so as to prepare a response plan.
However, looking at Yun Hezi's appearance, it seems that he has no intention of surrendering at all. He looks like he wants to find an opportunity to escape. How could Wu Yan be willing to do that?
Wu Shan used his fingers to move his skills and suddenly pointed at Yun Hezi! A stream of sword energy shot out from his fingertips and shot towards Yun Hezi. At the same time, Lu Xuanyu also shot an invisible sword energy at Yun Hezi.
The four Tang brothers kept their eyes on Yun Hezi. A blue shield lit up on Yun Hezi's body. The light of the shield was flickered by the two invisible sword energies, and it seemed that it could be pierced at any time.
As soon as the two invisible sword energies dissipated from the blue shield, Wu Shan and Lu Xuanyu once again pointed their fingers at Yun Hezi.
Yun Hezi held a spirit stone in one hand, constantly absorbing the spiritual power from the spirit stone to replenish his mana. In the other hand, he held a several-foot-long banana fan. His eyes swept over Wu Shan and Lu Xuanyu, as if he was hesitating about who to attack first.
In the previous fight, Yun Hezi had used magic weapons to deal with the two, but the two's body movements were really weird. No matter how powerful the hurricane technique of his banana fan was, although it forced the two to be in a hurry, it still failed to hurt them.
It can be seen that Wu Shan and Lu Xuanyu could not do anything to him for a while. The two were determined to wear him out.
Yun Hezi's mana was now too much, and he was no longer able to fight. Naturally, he wanted to escape, but once he stepped on the magic weapon and flew into the air, the body protection talisman would inevitably become ineffective for a moment. At that time, he would become a living target in the air. How could Yun Hezi, who thought he was smart, do such a stupid thing?
"Damn it! Why am I so unlucky? The Jiang family and the Linghu family have a grudge against Wu Yan. What does it have to do with me? I got myself involved for nothing. It's really not worth it!"
Yun Hezi complained in a low voice, but he was even more anxious in his heart. He could only constantly replenish his mana and maintain the mana of the body protection talisman. As long as the body protection talisman was not broken, this group of people could not do anything to him.
Yun Hezi's only hope now was the appearance of reinforcements. In the loose cultivator alliance, every elder and steward left a life tablet with Duomu Laodao. This life tablet was made of white jade, and it sealed a trace of the spirit of every elder and steward.
Since the incident with Jiang Xiekong four years ago, in order to prevent similar incidents from happening again, Duomu Taoist came up with this trick.
Jiang Xieming and Linghu Tao are the newly elected elders of the loose cultivator alliance by the Jiang family and the Linghu family. Duomu Taoist naturally has the life tablets of the two. If something happens to them, Duomu Taoist will definitely know.
Although Tianlang City is thousands of miles away from the Wujiabao in Qing County, for a cultivator in the foundation-building period, as long as he flies at full speed, he can reach it in more than a day. Yun Hezi naturally hopes that Duomu Taoist can come to rescue him.
Wu Shan is also very troubled at this time. This guy is indeed much more difficult to deal with than the other two cultivators. He and Lu Xuanyu teamed up and continuously bombarded Yun Hezi's body-protecting spirit talisman shield with invisible sword energy, but still failed to break it.
If the stalemate continues, it will not be a good thing for Wu Shan and Lu Xuanyu. Their internal strength is not like the mana consumed by Yun Hezi, which can be restored by holding a broken stone in hand.
