After cultivating immortality for a hundred years, the predecessor has become the daughter of destin

Outside the imperial capital, Huang Guxiao looked at the tall and mighty city at close range once again, feeling extremely excited.

Because as long as he goes one step further, this Great Xia Wanzai Jiangshan will change its owner. It is not in vain that he has been planning for many years, and even sent his younger sister to the palace.

Thinking of this, he subconsciously withdrew his complicated thoughts, and turned to look at the guards above the city.

As early as when their group appeared within thirty miles, the four major gates of the imperial capital had already been closed by the generals in charge of guarding the city.

If it was just an ordinary city, it would naturally not be able to stop him.

But looking at the sky net formed by the intertwined rainbow light above the sky around the city, Huang Guxiao knew that the formation in the imperial capital might have been activated.

According to what my sister said, once the formation protecting the imperial capital is activated, it cannot be broken by human power.

Unless the people inside take the initiative to close it, or the medium maintaining the formation is exhausted.

But it all takes human life to make up for it.

Therefore, even though he was very angry at the general who closed the city gate at this time, he still had to apologize and said: "In the next day, Zong Huang Guxiao was ordered to send the Empress Dowager back to court, and I also asked the general to open the city gate and let me wait in!"

Behind him, the distinguished Luanjia representing the empress dowager stopped quietly behind him at this time.

Farther away, the tens of thousands of disciples of the Second Sun and Moon Sect were silent, and they all looked up at the imperial capital in the same way.

The general in charge of guarding the south gate was surnamed Li Mingzhong. As a general in charge of guarding one side of the city, and a general in charge of guarding the imperial capital, he certainly could not be an ordinary person.

As a general killed in the battle of life and death, Li Zhong can't remember how many years he has guarded this city.

Is it 300 years, or 500 years?Or 1000 years?

He didn't know the exact year and month, but he only remembered that many of his soldiers had changed several times, and as for the owner of the imperial capital, at least a dozen of them had changed.

But he was never replaced once.

And there are three other city guard generals like him, who are stationed in the other three cities.

But even so, in the years of guarding this city for thousands of years, he rarely encountered such a situation today!

Tens of thousands of practitioners appeared near the imperial capital, and it was at this critical moment when the Human Emperor was conquering the demon clan and the demon forces invaded, so the appearance of these tens of thousands of practitioners became very suspicious.

Therefore, after discovering this team that suddenly appeared near the imperial capital, he immediately joined the other three to directly activate the city defense formation.

Sure enough, it turned out that his early action was not wrong.

Especially when he saw that the leader was actually the suzerain of the Japanese sect known as the number one sect in Daxia territory, he was even more grateful for his wise decision as a person with only the peak of the eighth realm.

After coming to the city, listening to the other party's words, Li Zhong thought for a while and asked again: "Since we are sending the empress dowager back to the palace, why did Sect Master Huang bring so many people here?"

Huang Guxiao secretly scolded that this person was too vigilant, but on the surface he had to explain with a smile: "General, the evildoers have invaded my Great Xia, and the Empress Dowager insists on returning to the palace. For the sake of safety, I have to do more Bring some people to escort the empress dowager, and at the same time, we also want to try our best to protect the city and protect the empress dowager."

When he spoke, he secretly used his true energy, so his words were so loud that almost everyone inside and outside the city could hear them clearly.

Although Li Zhong noticed something was wrong, he didn't react for a while, but frowned slightly thinking about the authenticity of the visitor's words.

And the other soldiers under his command who also heard these words, when they heard that the demonic forces really took advantage of this time to invade, they immediately talked a lot and became very nervous.

After all, these soldiers who are responsible for guarding the city don't have a chance to see real demons on weekdays.

I heard that those demons and evildoers are inhumane, murderous, and extremely cruel existences. If they really attack the imperial city while His Majesty the Emperor is away, how should they deal with them?

At this moment, they were overjoyed to hear that the suzerain actually brought tens of thousands of practitioners to escort the queen mother back to the palace, and also to assist himself and others in guarding the imperial capital and resisting evil spirits. loyal.

Even some of Li Zhong's confidantes stepped forward boldly and suggested at this time: "General, since the reinforcements are coming, let them come in quickly, otherwise if the evil spirits really come, I will wait to defend the city alone." I'm afraid I'm not strong enough."

"That's right, General, what Deputy General Xue said is very true. I heard that those demons and evildoers are cruel, and now even the ancestor of Jiutianmen has died under their hands. There is no such level of master among us." Why don't you let this Huang Zongzhu come in to help defend?"

"General, no matter what, these people are escorting the empress dowager back to the palace after all, so it's not good to keep them out like this."

……

The handouts given by several confidantes made Li Zhong feel headaches. How could he not know these truths?
But for some reason, his intuition told him that something must be wrong.

If you want to open the city gate, you must first close the formation in the city.

But once the formation is closed, it takes a quarter of an hour to prepare before restarting it, which is a huge danger for myself and others.

After all, once the formation is closed, with the strength of this group of people, I am afraid that they will not be able to resist the tens of thousands of practitioners in front of them.

Not to mention, the leader among them is a top-notch Guixianland master!
But the words of these subordinates are not completely unreasonable.

After all, they certainly knew the crisis situation that the imperial capital was currently facing through the information that had been sent over from time to time.

But the problem is that at this moment of crisis, if these tens of thousands of practitioners are really reinforcements, it's okay. Once these people have other thoughts, letting these people in is tantamount to leading wolves into the house.

At this critical moment, Li Zhong didn't want to gamble.

As long as the formation remains open, the imperial capital can hold on.

These reinforcements who came to support were just icing on the cake.

But if I rashly decide to let these people in, once these people have other big thoughts, it will be bad.

After thinking about it, Li Zhong finally rejected the suggestions of all his subordinates, looked at Huang Guxiao under the city again and said: "Sect Master Huang, forgive me, at this time the magic forces are invading, and the city protection formation has been activated. It will be closed halfway, please ask Sect Master Huang to escort the Empress Dowager to temporarily move to a safe place to wait."

Huang Guxiao, who had been waiting for a long time with a smile on his face, did not expect that he had already spoken to such an extent that the other party was still so vigilant, his complexion darkened immediately, and he said in a deep voice: "This general, I will wait a long way to escort the empress dowager back. Gong, you are so unfeeling that I can't even enter the city, isn't that a bit too much?!"

However, in the face of Huang Guxiao, who was obviously already emotionally displeased, Li Zhong, who was in charge of guarding the city, still only responded indifferently: "The situation is special, and I have no choice but to ask Huang Sect Master to forgive me."

Seeing that the other party was determined not to open the city gate and let him wait for others to enter, Huang Guxiao was furious in his heart, and stared angrily at the general on the city.Just when he was about to say something more, he heard his sister's voice behind him: "Brother, don't be impatient, let me try it."

Huang Guxiao heard the words and immediately turned her head to look behind her, and found that her younger sister Huang Yunqing had got off the Luanjia at some point and came to her side.

Looking at his younger sister, Huang Guxiao couldn't help frowning and said: "This general who is in charge of guarding the city is simply a stone in a latrine, brother, I really want to kill this person directly!"

Huang Yunqing glanced at the elder brother in front of him, shook his head slightly and said, "This man's name is Li Zhong, and he has guarded the imperial city for thousands of years, so it's normal to be cautious."

After finishing speaking, she ignored the astonishment in Huang Guxiao's eyes, went straight forward two steps to the forefront of the team, then slightly raised her head to stare at Li Zhong who was above the city and said indifferently: "Li Zhong, can you After getting to know Ben?"

Although her tone was light, for a master at the peak of the Eight Realms like Li Zhong, she could hear it very clearly.

But Li Zhong saw the Empress Dowager wearing a normal uniform appearing at the front of the line, and immediately bowed slightly to salute: "South gate guard Li Zhong, I have seen the Empress Dowager!"

As the south gate guard in charge of guarding the city, Li Zhong naturally knew the empress dowager whom the late emperor loved so much.

After all, when the empress dowager entered the palace, she also entered through the south gate that he guarded. At that time, he personally inspected it and confirmed that the empress dowager was really just a mortal before letting her team go. Into the city.

At this time, although he hadn't seen each other for decades, Li Zhong naturally recognized this empress dowager whose appearance had never changed.

"Very good!" Seeing Li Zhong's performance, Huang Yunqing nodded slightly, then suddenly changed her tone and said coldly: "Since you know Ben Empress, why do you want to prevent Ben Empress from returning to the palace?"

Hearing these words, Li Zhongwen frowned slightly, and quickly explained: "Li Zhong dare not, but the current situation is special, and the invasion of demons and evildoers is imminent..."

Without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, Huang Yunqing interrupted his words again and said in a cold voice: "You also know that the invasion of demons and monsters is imminent. Don't tell me that you don't let this queen enter the imperial capital because you want to use the hands of demons and monsters to kill you?" After this?"

At this moment, Li Zhong was completely shocked by his words, and he could not bear the crime of intentionally murdering the empress dowager.

Not to mention him, even His Majesty the Emperor might not be able to bear it here.

At this time, he also had other scruples, and quickly knelt down on one knee and explained the reason why he did not open the city gate: "Li Zhong didn't dare, but now that the evil way is invading, this Sect Master Huang is leading tens of thousands of practitioners." , if I open the city gate rashly, I'm afraid there will be other accidents, so please forgive me, Empress Dowager."

Although Huang Yunqing's words could not be heard clearly by many people with insufficient cultivation in the city, everyone could clearly hear Li Zhong's performance and words. Seeing the general kneeling down to explain, all the soldiers also knelt on one knee They all said in unison: "Please forgive me, Empress Dowager!"

Huang Yunqing frowned, she didn't expect Li Zhong to still have such an attitude when she said this, and this person actually has such prestige here.

Seeing that Huang Yunqing was also rejected, Huang Guxiao couldn't bear it any longer, leaned forward and said viciously: "Sister, what should I do now? If it doesn't work, let's just attack by force. There are so many of us, just I can't believe how powerful this formation is!"

Huang Yunqing glanced at his brother who was extremely angry at this time, and when he heard the words in his mouth and connected with what Li Zhong said just now, his heart moved slightly, his eyes lit up slightly, and he felt as if he had grasped some key point.

She looked back at the army who was close behind her eyes, and immediately knew the problem.

With tens of thousands of cultivators under the city, anyone would be wary, let alone an experienced city defender like Li Zhong.

With a slight change in her mind, a plan was quickly born in her heart.

She didn't speak, but directly told her brother about her temporary birth plan via sound transmission.

And Huang Guxiao, who was originally angry because of Li Zhong's tough attitude on the city, immediately calmed down after hearing his sister's voice transmission.

After a slight silence, the two brothers and sisters looked at each other, and then Huang Guxiao nodded slightly to show that he understood.

After confirming the plan, Huang Guxiao regained his composure. He looked up at Li Zhong who was above the city and said in a loud voice: "Since General Li is worried about our schemes, in order to avoid misunderstanding, I will take my leave first."

Having said that, he paused slightly, and after making sure that his words had attracted everyone's attention, he looked at his sister beside him, and then deliberately made an expression that he had tried his best and said to Huang Yunqing: " Empress Dowager, since we have escorted you to the general, let's take our leave."

After saying these words, he didn't pay attention to anyone's words, but directly turned around and gave orders to the disciples behind him: "Everyone listen to my order and immediately turn around and return to the sect."

Naturally, these disciples had nothing to say when they heard the words, they all turned around and started to set off.

Soon, tens of thousands of teams marched in the opposite direction of the imperial capital, as if they really wanted to leave here and return to the sect.

Li Zhong above the city gate looked at this scene in astonishment, but he never stopped him until the team of tens of thousands of people completely disappeared from his and others' sight.

Finally, outside Nuoda's South Gate City, on the snow-capped city, there were no other figures.

The beautiful woman in luxurious clothes stood alone in this icy world, and the cold woman's voice like ice and snow finally sounded again at this time: "Li Zhong, do you really want this empress to freeze to death outside this imperial city? "(end of this chapter)
