Changsheng: My experience in patrolling the liver

Chapter 446: Dark Evil, Fall! (Two in One)

"I've told you, Marshal Hu, guard your city tonight, and my Su family will handle the rest!"

The two old masters still spoke in low voices, but their attitudes were extremely firm.

Hu Zhong gritted his teeth. Since Su had overturned the table first, he didn't care too much and just burst out with the enormous power of a master and chose to force his way in.

Since the Su family wouldn't let him go, he had to go and see what the Su family wanted to do!
On the other side, Hu Donghuo had already seen the huge bull body that was a hundred feet long from afar.

"Black Soul Bull!" Hu Donghuo recognized the identity of this bull monster and confirmed that it was undoubtedly a big monster!
The Black Soul Dark Ox clan is one of the major clans in the demon world entrenched in Dark State. They are very famous and countless great demons have been born in their clan. They are truly a clan of great demons.

He couldn't figure out why a Black Soul Bull would suddenly land outside the main city, and he had no time to think about it.

Seeing that the bull monster was madly devouring the lives and flesh of his soldiers, he became furious and his whole body was filled with murderous intent.

At this time, the Bull Demon seemed to have sensed the approach of Hu Donghuo. He stared at him from a distance, suddenly stopped devouring flesh and blood, turned into a large cloud of billowing black smoke, and fled into the distance.

Obviously, it didn't want to be left behind by Hu Donghuo.

After all, there are many ancestors of aristocratic families in the main city of Cuibai, and all of them are masters of martial arts. If they are all alarmed, even if it is a big monster, it will be difficult to escape.

The fact that it chose to escape at this moment showed that it still had some rationality.

A few breaths later, Hu Donghuo appeared outside the camp. Looking at the tragic scene below where there were cries of grief everywhere and countless deaths and injuries, Hu Donghuo gritted his teeth in anger.

"Master, Master, please don't force your pursuit. This great demon came in a very strange way. I am afraid of him."

Inside the garrison, a general who had escaped the disaster looked at Hu Donghuo who had driven away the big monster. He breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time he felt that this matter was strange, and was about to persuade Hu Donghuo to calm down.

However, before he could finish his words, Hu Donghuo had already transformed into a stream of light and chased after him.

He also has his own considerations.

If this big monster appeared in the border area of ​​Cuibai and caused chaos, the threat it brought would not be that great.

But now this big monster appeared directly outside the main city, the nature of the situation was completely different.

If he didn't chase after it to stop it, God knows what else this monster would do.

After all, this is a huge monster with incredible destructive power. If left unchecked, it might cause a disaster that they cannot bear!
The bull demon’s strength was so great, but his speed of escape was not very fast.

After chasing for a while, they were stopped by Hu Donghuo at the border of Cuibai Road.

The man and the demon didn't say anything extra and started a life-and-death battle right away.

"Human boy, you dare to chase me with your limited cultivation level? You are really looking for death!" The bull demon roared continuously.

Although Hu Donghuo was extremely talented and had great potential for development in martial arts in the future, he was, after all, a newly promoted martial arts master. In the duel with the bull monster, he quickly fell into a disadvantage.

Hu Donghuo said nothing, his purpose was very clear, which was to hold the big monster back.

In the main city, whether it is Hu Zhong or the masters of other aristocratic families, they will rush to support after being alarmed.

With the martial arts master's action power, I believe it will arrive soon.

His idea would be fine if it worked normally, and in fact, a martial arts master did follow up and came here almost immediately.

Unfortunately, before Hu Donghuo could breathe a sigh of relief, the old man in white said in a cold tone: "Old Cow, I asked you to lead the way to the Green Cypress Road, why did you stop here?"

As soon as these words came out, Hu Donghuo felt like he had fallen into an icy cave.

"Moo, old cow, I run slowly, but I have tried my best. Please forgive me," the bull demon responded, his rough voice carrying a rare hint of flattery.

It can be seen that although the bull monster is a big monster, it is still afraid of the old man in white from the human race.

"Are you the wandering ancestor of the Su family?!" Hu Donghuo only recognized the other party's identity at this time.

This person is Su Dongdan.

If we were to say when the Hu family was most severely oppressed by the Su family after they followed the king to the throne, it was undoubtedly the period when the current ancestor of the Su family was in power.

This man is not only powerful, but also extremely ruthless and vicious. The Hu family, which had not yet established a firm foothold in Cuibai Road, suffered a lot at his hands.

If it weren't for the support of Emperor Yun, the Hu family and the young Prince Cui would have been killed long ago.

It was not until later when Su Dongdan traveled around the country and left Cuibai Dao that the Hu royal family began to make a comeback.

After that, this person did not return for decades. Whether it was King Cui, Hu Zhong, or even him, they all hoped that the other person had already died outside.

However, today, Hu Donghuo realized that not only their idea was shattered.

His current situation has suddenly become precarious.

Judging from the conversation just now, this bull monster was clearly sent by the ancestor of the Su family!
It is not difficult to guess that the target of this attack could only be him and the Hu family behind him!

It was not until this moment that he felt a little regretful for his impulsiveness tonight.

On the second day, the sun rose and the Yunzhong Palace was illuminated by the golden light of the morning sun, shining brightly.

The imperial banquet was finally declared over at this moment.

The ministers knelt down, the kings took their leave, and everyone dispersed and left.

After going down the stairs and returning to the ground, King Xia also said goodbye to King Cui.

"Old Hu, remember to come stay at Zixia Road for a few days someday."

"Sure." King Cui was about to say something else with a smile when he suddenly realized something and took out a jade slip for sending a message.

There is a high-level talisman array in the Cloud Hall to isolate it, so even ordinary communication jade slip functions will be blocked, just like a mobile phone is in flight mode.

It was not until he left the Yunzhong Palace that King Cui received the message from the night.

click!
King Cui suddenly clenched his fist, and the force in his palm roared, as if he had a grenade in his hand that accidentally exploded, and the noise was quite loud.

"What's wrong?" King Xia frowned and looked at his friend.

This inappropriate reaction obviously meant something big had happened, otherwise King Cui would not have behaved like this.

Song Changming also looked at King Cui who was becoming increasingly angry, and even had a somewhat ferocious expression on his face.

This was the first time he saw King Cui so angry. There was no doubt that even King Cui could not accept what had happened.

"Could it be that the main city was breached?" Song Changming thought, it seems that only if the main city was lost and the Cuibai Road was broken, King Cui would have such an expression.

"Brother Li, excuse me. I'll talk to you another day! Changming, let's go!"

As King Cui spoke, he turned into a stream of light and hurried away with Song Changming.

At this time, he even ignored the no-fly regulations in the Imperial City. The two flew faster and faster, producing a series of sonic booms and buzzing sounds in the air.

This also forced Song Changming to use the Cloud Crane Witch Soldier Seal and ride the cloud to catch up with King Cui.

Such impatience also proves that the situation is of great urgency.

But Queen Cui had a gloomy face and said nothing along the way, so Song Changming didn't dare to ask too much.

It took them two days to get from Cuibai Road to Yundi City, but now they were traveling back home under the stars and reached the territory of Cuibai Road in just one day. It was only then that King Cui finally came to his senses, slowed down a bit, took a breath, and accumulated strength.

It was also at this time that Song Changming finally learned the whole story from King Cui.

On the night of the Emperor's Banquet, a huge monster suddenly appeared outside the main city and caused chaos, causing heavy losses to the army.

The most important thing is that the commander of the army, Hu Donghuo, was killed by that big monster!
Upon learning of this, Song Changming was also shocked, and the scene of his previous meeting with Hu Donghuo emerged in his mind.

He didn't have much interaction with Hu Donghuo, but he had heard of various famous people and events related to him. He knew that he was a rare talent and the third martial arts master produced by the Hu royal family!
He couldn't imagine that such a top figure, and a powerful master at that, would die so young.

And he died in his own Cuibai Road. This sounds really bizarre.

It’s no wonder that King Cui was so excited and angry when he learned about this.

He had high hopes for Hu Donghuo.

Especially for his Hu royal family, Hu Donghuo is the one who carries the hope of family revitalization after King Cui. It can even be said that he is the future designated by the Hu family!

God knows how much effort and resources the entire Hu family and King Cui have poured into Hu Donghuo.

The failure of this project meant that all of Hu's previous investments had gone to waste.

Not to mention, how long would it take for the family to produce the next Hu Dong Huo?
For any family, the most terrible thing is to have no successor.

The Zhao family, which has been destroyed in the past, is the best example. Without descendants to inherit and guard the family, everyone will come to step on it, and the huge family business will be just fat meat with no one to take care of it.

It can be said that the sudden death of Hu Donghuo was a huge and painful blow to King Cui and the Hu family.

"How could this be?" Song Changming was confused.

On the one hand, how could the big demon suddenly appear in the heart of the main city without anyone noticing?

On the other hand, Hu Zhong and ancestors of other families were still in the main city, so how could they allow Hu Donghuo to be killed?

No matter what, Hu Donghuo is still a martial arts master. Even if his opponent is a powerful monster, Hu Donghuo can't defeat him, he can just maneuver around or escape. If it's just a monster, it's unlikely to kill him in a short time.

There has to be more to this matter!

Song Changming had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but he had to wait until he returned to the main city to investigate the specific situation.

Soon, the two returned to the main city of Cuibai.

The main city of Cuibai was still sunny and peaceful at this moment, and had not suffered any damage from the attack of the monster.

Even the ordinary people in the city were still unaware of the great monster when they woke up.

This matter was only spread and discussed among the top families in the city.

As for Hu Donghuo's sacrifice, no one knew about it except the Su and Hu families.

In the palace, Prince Cui and Song Changming arrived very suddenly.

When the palace soldiers stationed on patrol around the area saw King Cui, they immediately saluted.

"Let Hu Zhong come to see me!" King Cui said with a cold face, and then strode into an inner hall.

Seeing that King Cui did not let him leave, Song Changming followed her in.

Soon, a breeze blew, and Hu Zhong quickly came to the inner hall and saluted King Cui.

"What's going on?" King Cui stared at Hu Zhong and asked in a muffled voice with a very stiff tone.

Song Changming also looked at Hu Zhong.

After all, before King Cui left, he entrusted Hu Zhong to lead the entire army and guard Cuibai Road.

This time the big monster suddenly invaded the main city, and Hu Zhong was completely unaware of it before, so it was already Hu Zhong's fault.

In addition, Hu Donghuo’s death was truly heartbreaking, and Hu Zhong must bear this responsibility no matter what.

And Hu Zhong in front of him was obviously not in a good condition either.

Hu Donghuo's death was also a huge blow to him, and the feeling of self-blame in his heart was even heavier than that of anyone else.

He was willing to accept all punishments from King Cui without any complaints.

But before that, he still had to explain everything that happened that night.

This also included the sudden intervention of the old master of the Su family, who obstructed him in every way.

This abnormal behavior also made the Su family particularly suspicious.

It was precisely because of the obstruction of the Su family that when he found Hu Donghuo, there was only a shriveled corpse that had been drained of blood. It was too late.

"This matter is too suspicious," Song Changming said slowly after hearing this.

"I suspect that Su was responsible for Xiaohuo's death! It was a response to us tearing up the agreement before!" Hu Zhong said directly.

There were no outsiders present, and Song Changming was treated as one of our own, so he could speak frankly.

King Cui was speechless. After listening to Hu Zhong's entire report, he subconsciously thought that even if the Su family did not personally kill Hu Donghuo this time, they must be involved.

"Changming, tell me." King Cui suddenly looked at Song Changming and asked.

"The fact that the old master of the Su family was able to stop the marshal from leaving the city at the first possible moment shows that they have been waiting for a long time. This alone is enough to explain many things."

Song Changming also spoke frankly.

“Secondly, after Marshal Hu died, his body was still left behind and retrieved by the Marshal. This seems more like an intentional act. If it was really killed by a great demon, it could have swallowed up the body and disappeared without a trace.

I don’t think any great demon would resist completely devouring the corpse of a human master.”

Song Changming didn't say much, just pointed out two most obvious suspicious points and agreed with what Hu Zhong said.

It is almost obvious that the Su family's actions in this matter were a complete retaliation against Hu Donghuo and King Cui!
In fact, the Su family could have been more covert and reduced their suspicion a lot.

But the Su family did not do so, and the warning and threat to King Cui was self-evident.

The Changsheng family still wants to continue to tie down the royal family, the Hu family, and does not want King Cui to rise. Their original intention is to let King Cui continue to work like a slave for them and obtain a steady supply of supplies and benefits.

If they can kill Hu Donghuo today, Su can continue to kill Hu and other important figures in King Cui’s camp tomorrow.

Such audacity is consistent with the Changsheng Su family's usual style.

If King Cui is not strong enough this time, all the attempts and efforts made in the past will be in vain.

Thinking of this, Song Changming couldn't help but look at King Cui again.

At this moment, King Cui had a blank expression on his face and was terrifyingly calm. It was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Faintly, Song Changming seemed to smell the smoke of war, and felt that an unprecedented war was about to come ahead of schedule.
