Douluo Tang San, stop rolling around

Chapter 99 Escape 2
As the two slowed down their pace, the city lord who was chasing them said to his guards:
"I will go ahead and stop the criminal, and you will follow."

After a long chase, the horses were already tired and panting.

In order to save time, the city lord planned to leave his personal guards behind and pursue alone. After all, he had the highest cultivation level and the fastest speed.

As he moved forward, he spotted Xu Dongyang and Zhu Zhuqing on the road ahead. Looking at the two young faces, he stopped and asked:

"Young man, have you seen any suspicious people?"

Xu Dongyang's face was not exposed. He just glanced at her lightly. But when he looked at Zhu Zhuqing, his eyes paused, as if she looked familiar.

The two were too young, which made him think that the murderer who attacked the royal convoy must be someone else.

However, after looking forward, he did not find any other suspicious people, which made him feel a little alert.

Xu Dongyang and Zhu Zhuqing also discovered each other at the first opportunity.

Zhu Zhuqing unconsciously clenched her fists and looked at Xu Dongyang with her beautiful eyes, as if asking, "What should I do? Should I take action?"

Xu Dongyang glanced at her lightly, his expression was calm, his eyes were clear, and he said with a hint of childishness in his tone:
"Uncle, we didn't see any suspicious people, but there seemed to be some movement in the mountains over there just now, and many birds were scared away."

As he spoke, he pointed to a mountain not far away and scratched his head with his right hand, looking quite dull.

Zhu Zhuqing, who was standing by, watched his superb acting skills, her mouth twitching, she tilted her head, her face flushed red, she felt like laughing, and her body was shaking slightly.

The city lord did not notice Zhu Zhuqing's abnormality, but looked towards a mountain several kilometers away along his fingertips, wondering in his heart,

"Did he run towards the mountain path? Normal people do seem to hide in uninhabited areas."

shuh~
A sound of wind was heard, and Xu Dongyang took action!

He used his fifth soul skill - gravity control, and his own soul skill - lightning and flint.

His body was as light as a feather, with electric light on his body, and as fast as lightning. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of the city lord who was only 20 meters away.

He spurted out ice-blue energy from his hand and struck the opponent's chest with a palm.

The city lord only felt his hair stand on end, and subconsciously cast a soul power shield.

The hand wrapped in ice-blue air seemed invisible. It passed through the soul power shield and hit the opponent's chest directly.

Without making any sound, Bing Yi's power dissolved the opponent's soul power and the power penetrated into the city lord's body.

Wow ~
You old man!

The city lord vomited a mouthful of blood, looked at Xu Dongyang with shock and anger, and then punched him.

In a hurry, Xu Dongyang could only punch him once, and then he flew backwards.

After falling to the ground and taking several steps back, Xu Dongyang's arms were shaking and his five fingers were twisted. This punch directly broke several of his fingers.

The opponent reacted quickly and punched fiercely, but he had not yet regained his strength, so he could only hastily use his Hua Jin to fight back.

Kehua Jin is a hidden force and is not good at head-on confrontation. His force penetrated into the opponent's body, but his bones were also broken by the opponent's powerful force.

This attack is equivalent to a lose-lose situation!

"What a strange force, it actually penetrated directly into my meridians. It felt like my meridians were pricked by needles, and even when I circulated my soul power, I felt an unbearable pain!"

The city lord broke out in sweat and had fear in his eyes. He had never thought that the other party, so young, could have such means and cultivation.

"So it was you who attacked the royal convoy. Aren't you afraid of retaliation from the Xing Luo Empire?"

Xu Dongyang did not answer and rushed towards the other party again. He was in a hurry to escape and had no time to explain this and that to the other party.

The two men fought for a while, but both of them were fighting with only one arm, and the other hand was injured, so their fighting power was greatly reduced.

Uh-huh~
Xu Dongyang waved the dark golden claw in his right hand. The dark golden claw was extremely sharp and carried a cold aura that made the opponent's hair stand on end.

His moves were wild and fierce, and he would ignore any attack that was not fatal.

The city lord held a spear in his left hand, with six soul rings on his body. He used the spear as a short stick and constantly resisted the opponent's attack.
The sound of metal colliding was heard continuously in the field.

It didn't take long for the city lord to find himself at a disadvantage. His left hand was not his dominant hand, and he couldn't even unleash half the power of his martial arts spear with one hand.

Dang~
The dark gold claws hit the spear, creating sparks. Xu Dongyang hooked the spear with his five fingers.

shuh~
A black shadow quickly came behind the city lord, and countless claws attacked.

"what!"

The city lord screamed, his body was covered with scratches, flesh and blood, and he slowly knelt on the ground, revealing Zhu Zhuqing behind him.

Xu Dongyang stepped forward and was about to end his life.

"Wait, I lose this time. I can let you go and promise not to ask any more questions. I can also help you delay the pursuers. Let me go!"

A cold light flashed, the city lord's eyes widened, and he covered his neck, where blood was gushing out!

But he couldn't cover it with his hands, so he could only look at the other person with resentment and fell to the ground.

"Damn it! I just married a concubine and I haven't enjoyed it enough, but I didn't expect to die here."

His consciousness gradually became blurred, then his pupils lost color, and he died.

"Is your hand okay?"

Zhu Zhuqing stepped forward, looked at Xu Dongyang's twisted left hand, and asked worriedly.

"It's okay. We should leave now. We can't keep the things happening here secret for long."

"Ok!"

The young boy and girl walked towards the distance facing the setting sun. The red glow shone on the earth, as if covering up the pool of blood on the ground.

After a long time, a group of people arrived here.

"There's someone lying on the ground!"

"It's the City Lord!"

"The city lord is dead. What happens next is not something we can control. We should report this to the higher-ups immediately."

Xingluo City, Xingluo Palace, in a main hall.

"Your Majesty, someone recently kidnapped the Third Prince Dai Mubai's fiancée Zhu Zhuqing in Luoxi City and killed the mayor of Luoxi City."

A minister said to the Xingluo Emperor who was sitting at the top of the hall.

"Who is so bold? You simply don't take our Xing Luo Empire seriously."

"The murderer must be sentenced to death to serve as a warning to others."

"This has not happened in Xingluo for many years. We must not let this happen lightly."

Many people on both sides of the hall spoke angrily.

"Who did it?" asked the Xingluo Emperor above in a deep voice.

“The identity of the murderer has not been found out yet, but someone saw that he had five soul rings on his body, and his soul power level should be at the Soul King level.

As for how Lord Rossi was killed, the specific reason is unclear, but the existence of accomplices cannot be ruled out."

Emperor Xingluo narrowed his eyes slightly and said domineeringly:

"Find out, I want to see who is so bold as to cause trouble in my Xingluo Empire and kill my Xingluo officials, simply not taking the empire seriously.

Whoever he is, I will make him pay for this!"
