It's the beauty that brings disaster. I'm also desperate.

How can you normally have the chance to witness a fight of this magnitude?

When Hua and Ning fought for 500 rounds, the fight had lasted from noon to dusk, and when they fought for 700 rounds, it was already a night fight... Fortunately, warriors of their level have keen five senses. Although they can see the night as bright as the day, they are not affected at all by the light of the surrounding torches.

However, even though their blood was as full as the sea, they still fought for such a long time and it was a battle between two evenly matched opponents.

Energy and strength are being consumed in an overwhelming manner...

Each move was much slower than at dusk, and many moves were even deformed and difficult to perform to their full potential.

The noise of fists and feet colliding was much smaller than that at noon.

"Master Xun, when do you think they will be able to decide the winner?"

Different from many warriors who were eagerly watching the fight between the two masters hoping to learn a few moves, Ning Ze had a heavy face and eyes full of worry.

This worry was about his daughter's safety...but his eldest daughter had always been very assertive since she was young. Today was the first time he knew that the fire when she was twelve years old did not destroy her martial arts. While he was relieved and happy, he also felt a little self-pitying.

His daughter is too opinionated, and he, as a father, has no sense of presence at all.

But.

At this moment, Ning Ze's concern was only partially on Ning Jun, and more on Hua Shuangxue!

"Alas, the waves behind push the waves ahead. I can't see it either."

Mr. Xun also had a heavy expression on his face, with an indescribable tension between his brows.

"...However, according to the speed at which their energy and blood are being consumed, the winner should be decided within 180 rounds."

"I hope it's a draw."

"Well, the possibility of a tie is very high."

Hearing that his eldest daughter would tie with Hua Jinxiu, Ning Ze secretly breathed a sigh of relief. But the solemnity on his face did not disappear, and his brows furrowed even deeper... The man intentionally or unintentionally glanced at the increasing number of warriors watching the fight. These were all people who came here after hearing the name of Hua Jinxiu.

He stared at the two women fighting.

At this moment, both sides' breathing was disordered, and when their fists and feet came into contact, they were not as fierce as at the beginning.

——This, this if...what should I do?

Niou Castle.

It is one of the two major gateways to Xizhou.

Although Ning Ze is the city lord, if the enemies outside the territory invade, if it is a small or medium scale invasion, he and the warriors in the city may be able to resist it.

But if it is a large-scale offensive, or even a general offensive like the one that took place more than two hundred years ago.

He is absolutely irresistible...

If Renwang Castle, the gateway to Xizhou, was lost, the enemy could march straight in and plunder the twelve cities of Xizhou. It was to prevent such a major crisis that Tushan State had the custom of having five Jinxiu guard the gate.

"Hey!"

Ning Ze sighed with a heavy heart.

Although Xun Jia on the side also had such concerns, he thought that the invasion of those things was regular. It has been like this for decades and it is impossible that they would move abnormally under the circumstances like tonight.

Therefore, he comforted her in a harmonious voice.

"City Lord Ning, please don't worry. I think those ghost soldiers..."

clang--!

clang--!

clang--!

Just as Xun Jia opened his mouth and hadn't finished speaking.

Three loud and rapid bell sounds echoed throughout the entire Renwang City, whether it was the warriors watching the battle, Xia Li who was already a little sleepy, or Hua Shuangxue and Ning Yun who were fighting hard...

Everybody heard it.

"Oh no! The bell tower is ringing!"

"The bronze bell is ringing, the ghost soldiers are entering the country! Oh my god, why is it tonight?!"

Everyone reacted and their faces changed drastically.

Xia Li, who was already very sleepy, was frightened when he heard the bell, and all his sleepiness was awakened.

——Ghost soldiers, it’s actually the ghost soldiers invading!

——And the bronze bell rang three times in a row, it was a large-scale one...

It is said that there has not been a large-scale invasion of ghost soldiers in Renwang City for several decades. Usually they are small or medium-sized intrusions. Xia Li has witnessed many of them over the years.

But tonight is different.

The most important thing is that the biggest trump card of Renwang City tonight, its guardian Hua Shuangxue has been fighting with Ning Jun to the point of exhaustion, and at this time a large-scale invasion of ghost soldiers occurs.

this......

This is really like a rainy day with a leaking roof; the ship is late and encounters headwinds!

——Something is going to happen. Something big is definitely going to happen tonight!

When Xia Li realized this, his legs went limp.

But with the mental fortitude she had developed over the years in charge of the Xia Mansion and handling various emergency situations, she quickly forced herself to calm down.

Yin soldiers.

This is what Xia Li has always been worried about and afraid of! This is also the imaginary enemy that she wants to become stronger and protect herself from!

This martial arts world.

If a person has obsessions after death, he will be reborn as a wandering soul.

The wandering soul has no consciousness and floats around. It will dissipate on its own after 49 hours.

But if someone deliberately collects wandering souls and places them in a place of Yin, allowing them to be nourished by Yin energy for ten years, then the wandering souls will be transformed into Yin souls.

The ghost.

The person will regain consciousness as before his death, but his self-perception will have changed drastically, and he will become hostile to living people.

Ghosts can also practice like warriors and gradually become stronger. The best among them can become ghost soldiers or even ghost generals. The power of ghosts is extremely huge and terrifying. Its original origin is no longer traceable, but now it has become a major concern for all warriors in Tushan Kingdom!

"All warriors, follow me to the bell tower to resist..."

When the bell rang, Ning Ze did not dare to hesitate and immediately organized all the warriors to prepare to rush to the defense.

But just as he opened his mouth, several stumbling soldiers suddenly rushed in.

“City Lord——!”

"City Lord Ning——!"

"City Lord Ning, something terrible has happened. The evil soldiers have breached the city gate. Kill them all... they are coming in!"

Chapter 9: Deceiving the Innocent Sister-in-Law

Xia Li will never forget this day.

The night was dark, the north wind was blowing fiercely... shouts and cries of killing could be heard from afar, mixed with heart-wrenching screams and wails.

The city was broken.

The gate tower was lost, and the outer city area, which accounted for 70% of the area of ​​Renwang City, fell directly. Countless people faced the ghost soldiers who entered the city. The ghost soldiers hated the living and killed almost anyone they saw...

Without thinking too much, we know that the outer city area is probably a sea of ​​blood and corpses at this moment!

——The alarm bell sounded too late.

Xia Li quickly realized this.

Moreover, she dared to guarantee that this was definitely not an accidental incident, and it was most likely planned long ago!

pity......

Guessing these things was useless in the current crisis. The only thing she had to ensure was to survive tonight.

Xia Li was extremely panicked.

But the more critical the moment, the clearer and more flexible her thinking became.

As the gateway to the Western Province, Renwang City actually had a special giant device built to fight against the Yin soldiers. However, most of these giant devices were set up on the gate towers of the outer city, leaving only a small part of the inner city.

Although City Lord Ning brought all the warriors to guard the inner city gate, he was not optimistic about how long they could hold out...

Moreover, when the outer city fell, all the warriors who were still alive would gather in the inner city. At that time, City Lord Ning and his men might even go out of the city to counterattack and meet the warriors who escaped from the outer city.

Thus.

There will probably be trouble.

The most important thing is that the gatekeeper Hua Shuangxue is temporarily disabled, and the city will definitely be captured tonight!

--thigh.

——I must cling to a strong person to save my life, and then use the other party's power to escape from Niou Castle and bring out the news that the gate has been broken!

This idea is correct.

But those who stayed behind were all people like Xia Li who had no martial arts skills, or the old, weak, sick, and young...

It’s simply a pipe dream to think of finding a strong partner among this group of people!

Xia Li originally thought that Hua Shuangxue was the most suitable candidate, but when the bell rang, Hua Shuangxue was so frightened that her face turned pale and her whole body trembled, as if she had caused a terrible disaster. She gave up the fight with Ning Jun and ran in one direction before Ning Ze opened his mouth to summon her.

It's like being in a hurry to be reincarnated.

Of course, Xia Li also understood Hua Shuangxue’s anxiety.

As the guardian of Renwang Castle, the only gatekeeper in Xizhou, she had lost a lot of energy and blood because of her own selfish desires. At this moment of drastic changes, what else could she use to guard the gate?

——Hey~!

——So beautiful women are always the cause of trouble.

Xia Li sighed inwardly.

The names of the Five Splendids actually have very special meanings...

Fenghuazhushanxue, in which "hua" represents strength and beauty. That is to say, Hua Shuangxue is not only the strongest person in Tushan Kingdom, but also her beauty is recognized by the world.

Every generation of Hua Jinxiu has the nickname of "the most beautiful woman in the world".

in this way......

How could it be a false reputation?

Hua Shuangxue has not revealed her true face in the past ten years, but when she did today, a terrible disaster occurred. This shows that the ancients were not deceiving Sheng.

Xia Li was thinking about someone she could trust and help her through the crisis tonight, while she accused Hua Shuangxue of neglecting her duty and failing to protect the safety of weak people like her.

She is simply the biggest disaster for Tushan Kingdom!

——What if Shengsheng gets hurt by her tonight?

——Even if I were a ghost, I wouldn’t let her go! Humph!

"Eh? Yes!"

After searching for a long time in his mind, Xia Li suddenly realized that there was an extremely suitable candidate. The other party was also the only martial artist among the many people who stayed behind without martial arts skills.

Sister-in-law, Ning Xun!

Ning Xun's martial arts talent is not as good as her sister's, and she was born with a defect.

Faints when seeing blood.

Therefore, it was useless to go to the battlefield. Even in such a critical situation tonight, Ning Ze did not take her with him. After all, going there would mean death...

Miss Ning's hemophobia is well-known in Xizhou.

Therefore, she was able to stay as a warrior.

Although the other party had such a fatal flaw, she was the only candidate Xia Li could think of.

In addition, Xia Li did not plan to go to the front battlefield but was preparing to escape from the city... The Yin soldiers have no blood, only the warriors injured by the Yin soldiers will bleed.

Ning Jun's talent in martial arts is at a monster level. Although her sister-in-law is inferior to her sister, she is definitely outstanding among ordinary warriors!

therefore.
