Chapter 310

In the crowd, a total of five people walked out.

The five people were unremarkable, just like many people below, wearing Longshan's iconic white clothes, belonging to the kind that you couldn't find even if you put them in a pile of people.

As the mutineers retreated one after another, making way, the five people walked at about the same pace, almost at the same time, until they were less than ten meters away from Xia Hong, when they were sternly stopped by Liu Yuan, who couldn't help it.

"That's enough, no need to continue forward!"

Xia Hong waved his hand to indicate it was fine and smiled, signaling the six to continue coming over.

The five continued to move forward and soon arrived in front of Xia Hong.

"Tell me, you guys caused this mutiny, what for..."

Whoosh...

No one expected that just as Xia Hong was about to speak, the five people who seemed unremarkable suddenly erupted and attacked him.

In the hands of the five, a large saber with blue flames appeared at the same time.

One went around to the back, two blocked the left and right sides, one leaped high and descended from the sky, and the last one rushed straight from the front.

In an instant, Xia Hong was surrounded tightly by these five people. Let alone retreating, he didn't even have any space to dodge.

This scene that happened suddenly was really too fast.

The five people who had no weapons suddenly had large sabers in their hands, and then they surrounded Xia Hong with lightning speed, slashing at him at the same time. Let alone the Cloud Dragon Army soldiers, even the crowd of cold-resistant-level experts couldn't react.

The key is that the speed of the five people was unbelievably fast.

Even in Xia Hong's eyes, there was clearly a trace of panic and being caught off guard.

Although his reaction was fast, he only made two movements in his panic.

One was to draw the Yan Han saber from his waist with his right arm to block the person in front of him;

The second was to raise his left arm to protect his head.

Crack... crack............

It wasn't two, but five crisp sounds of bones being slashed in succession, almost reaching the ears of the nearly 20,000 people present.

Boom... boom...

Before everyone could react, five violent shockwaves suddenly spread outward from where Xia Hong was standing. The front-row Cloud Dragon Army soldiers closest to Xia Hong couldn't stand steadily and fell to the ground one after another.

Even they were like this, let alone the others.

The Earth-Digging Realm garrison troops near the dungeon entrance were directly blown away by more than ten meters in the front row, and those further back were also shaken and retreated repeatedly;

Those in the front row of the mutinying crowd who were only at the Woodcutting Realm were directly shaken into blood foam, disappearing without a trace before they could even scream;

Those behind these hundreds of people were luckier, only being shaken away by several hundred meters. But judging from the loud noise they made when they hit the ground, if they didn't die, they would probably lose a layer of skin, and ending up with serious injuries would probably be something to be thankful for.

With Xia Hong as the center, the side of the mutinying crowd on the east was actually shaken into a vacuum zone of nearly five hundred meters.

The shockwave, the shockwave emitted when the five people's large sabers slashed Xia Hong, had such power, then the strength of these five people............

"Assassins, there are assassins, save the leader!"

Liu Yuan was the first among everyone to react. Seeing the four blood pillars erupting from Xia Hong's body, he was instantly furious, his face full of panic. While rushing up first, he didn't forget to warn others in shock.

"Save the leader, hurry up and save the leader."

"There are assassins, protect the leader."

"Protect the leader!"

………………

After Liu Yuan, there were more than 600 Cloud Dragon Army soldiers, and then Peng Bo;

Wu Tianxing, Dong Zhong, and Hou Xing hesitated for a moment before going up.

The more than 4,000 Earth-Digging Realm soldiers guarding near the dungeon entrance were all scared and retreated, and none of them dared to rush up.

The five cold-resistant-level experts were the fastest, so naturally, they were the first to rush near Xia Hong.

However, they couldn't even get close to Xia Hong.

The five people who assassinated Xia Hong didn't even draw their sabers. They just waited for Liu Yuan and the others' weapons to slash on their bodies, their bodies shook slightly, and then they freed a leg and kicked directly on their bodies.

Bang............

Peng Bo, whose basic strength was nearly ten bristles, was kicked away by dozens of meters. Liu Yuan and Hou Xing, who were weaker, were even more so. Their abdomens collapsed or even broke open, and they were kicked away by more than a hundred meters in one go.

"Hehehehe!"

At the same time the blue flame sabers appeared, the temperament of the five had already changed. Accompanied by the sharp and piercing cruel laughter they emitted at the same time, the blue flames spread directly from the large sabers to their bodies, and the five also completely changed their faces.

"Yue Qian, Song Kang, Cheng Guang, Han Jiuli..."

Xia Hong, who was pressed in the middle by the five blue flame sabers, had a pale face, clearly showing a trace of decay. But after looking up and quickly scanning the five people, he recognized four of the faces at a glance.

They were all people who had escaped death from Yangyuan Peak, so the last one should be...

"Wu Lin!"

Guessing the identity of the last person, Xia Hong didn't talk much nonsense. After scanning the crowd that had just been shaken away with his peripheral vision, he quickly withdrew the Yan Han saber, his body slammed to the right, and at the same time, he held the saber in reverse and slashed upward fiercely.

In the five people's sudden combined attack just now, he only used his saber to block Song Kang on the left. The four blood pillars Liu Yuan saw were caused by Han Jiuli on his head, Yue Qian in front, Cheng Guang behind, and Wu Lin on the right.

His chest, back, and right waist all sprayed a large amount of blood. If Xia Hong hadn't raised his left arm in time to protect his head, judging from the sound just now, Han Jiuli's saber would probably have shattered his skull.

While Xia Hong's body slammed to the right, he glanced at the crowd that had been shaken away with his peripheral vision, quickly withdrew it, and then slammed directly into Wu Lin's body.

Bang............

"Your strength, how is it possible..."

The moment Wu Lin was hit by Xia Hong, a thick look of horror flashed in his eyes, and then, in the unbelievable eyes of everyone in the field, he was directly hit and flew away for more than a hundred meters.

His subsequent words were destined not to be spoken, because Xia Hong took the opportunity to hit him and flew away, directly breaking out of the encirclement of Han Jiuli and the other four. In less than half a breath, the Yan Han saber slashed toward his body.

"Forty-two bristles, how can his strength be so astonishing!"

Wu Lin didn't dare to delay at all, quickly got up from the ground, and then actually changed his path to the south, which was toward the crowd that had just been shaken away, and ran over.

"What are you all stunned for? Use your lives to block them, all of you go!"

Liu Yuan didn't care about the injury on his abdomen at all. After getting up, he directly led Peng Bo and others to rush toward Han Jiuli and the other four again.

Swish swish swish............

Just now Xia Hong was assassinated by the five people at close range and entangled together, so the Cloud Dragon Army soldiers had no chance to shoot arrows at all. At this moment, Xia Hong was chasing and killing Wu Lin, and Han Jiuli and the other four were more than a hundred meters away from him, so they immediately nocked their bows and shot arrows.

Clang... clang...

Although the iron arrows couldn't penetrate the bodies of these four, the powerful force gathered by such dense arrow rain successfully blocked Han Jiuli and the other four who were chasing Xia Hong.

In this way, it naturally created an excellent opportunity for Xia Hong to kill Wu Lin.

"Run, can you run away?"

Xia Hong's words rang in his ears. Wu Lin, who had already escaped into the crowd, not only didn't show any panic, but his pupils were full of excitement.

"Run, run quickly."

"Don't block me, run quickly."

"Run quickly in front, the aftermath will shake us to death."

"Run quickly!"

…………

The moment Wu Lin rushed over, the crowd had already become chaotic.

The damage caused by the five shockwaves before was still vivid in their minds. Seeing Wu Lin and Xia Hong rushing into the crowd one after another, everyone around was afraid of not being able to dodge in time, and they all retreated and fled to the periphery like crazy.

But there were too many people gathered here, and everyone was rushing out one after another. It was clearly impossible to disperse all at once.

Moreover, Wu Lin, who was at the end of his rope, grabbed, kicked, or pushed anyone he could reach, throwing them at Xia Hong. It was clearly to delay time so that Han Jiuli and the other four could come over.

Slap... slap...

Xia Hong caught more than ten people in succession, using clever force to resolve the terrifying power their bodies were bearing, and then pushed them aside, continuing to approach Wu Lin.

Those who were caught and rescued by Xia Hong had expressions of both surprise and astonishment after retreating to the side.

The surprise was probably that they didn't expect to survive, while the astonishment was clearly derived from their lack of understanding of Xia Hong's behavior.

Especially seeing Xia Hong's pale face at this moment, his upper body soaked in blood, and four deep wounds on his chest, left arm, back, and right waist, the astonishment on their faces gradually turned into complexity and entanglement.

They were all members of the mutinying crowd before. Theoretically speaking, this assassination attempt on Xia Hong could be counted on their heads.

In such a situation, Xia Hong was actually still willing to spend effort to save them!

Let's not mention the psychological activities of others for now.

At this moment, Xia Hong was less than ten meters away from Wu Lin.

Bang............

Another person was thrown over by Wu Lin. Xia Hong still reached out his left hand to catch him as before, but the moment the other party was about to reach him, he retracted his left hand like lightning, and the Yan Han saber in his right hand struck suddenly.

Bizarrely, the person who was thrown at him by Wu Lin also attacked.

Whoosh…………

Just like Han Jiuli and the other five just now, a large saber with blue flames suddenly rose in that person's hand, slashing fiercely at Xia Hong.

"You..."

The blue flames rose suddenly, and that person also revealed his true face.

That face was actually Li Xuantian, who had attacked the beehive before!

"Assassination, you actually thought of that? Do you think I can't kill you without the Cold Ruins Tripod?"

Xia Hong sneered. His volume was extremely faint, and almost only Li Xuantian, who was facing him, could hear it.

Li Xuantian's face suddenly flushed red, and then an abnormal blue color emerged. The flames on his body suddenly rose again by a factor of two, and he roared: "Without the Cold Ruins Tripod, what do you rely on to kill me? Just your strength of forty-two bristles? Go to hell!"

The voice he roared out at this moment was not Li Xuantian's voice at all, but a very sharp female voice.

If Yu Wentao and Yuan Cheng were here, they would definitely be able to tell that this was exactly the same female voice they heard on the night of the Bai Lu Gui revival on Yangyuan Peak in April.

Li Xuantian, or directly speaking, Bai Lu Gui, the blue large saber in his hand suddenly expanded by more than a factor of two, reaching an astonishing three meters in length. Its strength also clearly soared in a straight line. Lifting the saber in mid-air could trigger the surrounding airflow. In Xia Hong's eyes, thousands of red substances were attached to the blade of the large saber in its hand.

Whoosh…………

The blade edge drawn by the large saber pulled the airflow, extending almost more than ten meters. From a distance, it looked like a large saber of more than ten meters, slashing horizontally toward Xia Hong's head.

This slash was like a collapsing mountain and a covering flood. Before the blade fell, it had already forced a half-meter-deep gully into the ground under Xia Hong's feet.

Compared to the time with Wu Xiong in the Cold Jade Gourd Valley, Bai Lu Gui's strength and methods had clearly improved significantly. Not only could it control six cold-resistant-level experts at the same time, but the strength it could exert by controlling the human body was also not at the same level as before.

Although it was unclear how this Bai Lu Gui controlled humans, this was already the second time Xia Hong had dealt with it, so he had some basic understanding. If he remembered correctly, last time in the Gourd Valley when it controlled Wu Xiong, it could only exert a strength of more than thirty bristles. The Han Jiuli five who ambushed him just now probably also had this strength.

But the Li Xuantian in front of him was different.

This slash was something that could truly make him perceive danger!

Thanks to the fact that he kept an eye on it just now when Li Xuantian didn't appear among the five, if he had really been caught off guard and slashed by this saber, the result might have been completely different from the first wave of ambushes just now.

"Why do you think I put the Cold Ruins Tripod in the beehive? Idiot!"

As the large saber attacked, Xia Hong sneered softly. Three blood-colored marks suddenly appeared on his brow, which were the Great Xia Holy Patterns. Then he held the Yan Han saber in reverse with both hands, suddenly bent his knees, his body sank until he was almost lying on the ground, and finally slashed upward fiercely.

Whoosh…………

A violent saber light from bottom to top suddenly tore through the night sky.

The longitudinal blade edge brought out by the surging airflow did not fall behind at all compared to the slash Li Xuantian made, and it was even more solid and violent than the latter.

This slash was like white magma erupting violently from the ground, colliding fiercely with Li Xuantian's horizontal saber light that was like a collapsing mountain.

Bang………………

One vertical and one horizontal, the two blade edges crossed in the air, forming a perfect cross. The position where the large sabers collided instantly triggered an extremely strong air wave.

Boom…………

The strength of the two was really too strong. Not only during the initial confrontation but also during the stalemate, they didn't make the clanging sound of normal weapon collisions.

To be precise, their strength was too great, and the air wave sound generated during the collision was too loud, which gave people the illusion that there was no weapon collision.

"How is it possible? How can your strength be stronger than mine!"

After only a stalemate of three or four breaths, before the shockwave had dissipated, Li Xuantian's expression had already changed because he discovered that the saber light he had slashed was slowly disintegrating.

This proved that Xia Hong's strength was above his!

How is it possible, how is it possible?

In order to plan this assassination, it had specially returned to Yangyuan Peak just now, splitting one-third of the Holy Yang Body and distributing it to the six puppets. This body of Li Xuantian had already been cultivated to the limit by it, and its strength could erupt to more than fifty bristles. How could it not be a match for Xia Hong?

Xia Hong's next whisper made it even more broken.

"A clown, you thought you were hiding in the crowd and I couldn't see you? Han Jiuli and the five, including you, I discovered you the first moment I walked over here. Not exposing you was just to see what kind of ghost you were playing. Assassination, you actually thought of that? But it just so happens that I can use you to perform a play!"

Swish…………

A golden divine light suddenly shot out from Xia Hong's left eye, hitting Li Xuantian's brow directly. Then he kicked back with both legs, turned his waist and abdomen, held the saber high with both hands, and the moment his body returned to normal, he slashed down fiercely at Li Xuantian.

Fists, feet, waist, and body combined into one, concentrating strength on one point, Longquan Tai Zhan routine.

"Not only are my methods stronger than yours, but my strength is even stronger than yours!"

Xia Hong looked disdainful, a trace of arrogance flashed on his face, watching Li Xuantian's brow begin to crack, and the Yan Han saber in his hand still slashed down mercilessly.

This slash had no obvious air waves, the blade edge only expanded by three or four meters, and the momentum was average. Compared to the saber Xia Hong slashed before, it was clearly much more ordinary.

Crack…………

Li Xuantian's head, which had already cracked in half, was hit by the blade edge and directly turned into countless fragments, and his body was also pressed into the ground under the crushing of the blade edge.

The saber light of more than four meters slashed across Li Xuantian's body and finally landed on the ground.

Bang…………

A radius of one kilometer seemed to have shaken.

The blade edge landed, actually slashing out a gully more than twenty meters long.

Flying sand and rolling stones, dust filled the sky.

Everyone around, whether from Longshan or Great Xia, was instantly dumbfounded.

They looked down at the gully that was three or four meters deep, swallowed their saliva with a gulp, and then looked at Xia Hong again. Without exception, they all widened their eyes, their faces full of shock and horror.

"With a basic strength of forty-two bristles, plus the fifty percent increase of the Holy Pattern and the thirty percent increase of the Longquan routine, the strongest strength I can erupt should be over seventy-five bristles. Plus the Shattering Divine Light, a clone with a strength of over fifty bristles wanted to assassinate me? Naive!"

Like Wu Xiong, after Li Xuantian's body turned into powder, it also condensed into drops of Cold Apple Jade Dew on the spot.

"Cough... leave people............"

Xia Hong didn't care about the Cold Apple Jade Dew on the ground but suddenly erupted, first rushing toward Wu Lin, who was behind Li Xuantian's corpse and was about to escape. At the same time, he didn't forget to signal Liu Yuan and the crowd of cold-resistant-level experts to let them leave Han Jiuli and the other four.

The time he fought with Li Xuantian wasn't long, but the movement caused was extremely terrifying. Hou Jing, Chen Yingba, and other cold-resistant-level experts in the encampment had long since rushed over.

Hearing Xia Hong's order, the eleven didn't dare to make a mistake and quickly led the Cloud Dragon Army to surround Han Jiuli and the other four.

Wu Lin's strength was only over thirty bristles. Under Xia Hong's full eruption, he had no chance to escape at all. After hiding for less than three breaths, he was slashed into two pieces by Xia Hong's large saber.

However, strangely, even though his body was slashed into two pieces, he didn't die directly. Instead, he turned his head to look at Xia Hong, his face full of shock as he spoke:

"Yin-Yang Mirror, you actually captured the Yin-Yang Mirror!"

This Bai Lu Gui, recognizes the Yin-Yang Mirror?

Xia Hong's brows slightly knitted. Just as he was about to speak, the Yan Han saber stuck in Wu Lin's waist suddenly seemed to heat up, starting to make a sizzling sound, and soon black smoke emerged. It was clearly the white silver taking effect.

At the same time, Wu Lin also started to scream.

Hiss... hiss... ah............

After killing Wu Lin, Xia Hong's face was already extremely pale, and the four wounds on his body were still gushing blood. But he still gritted his teeth and continued to rush toward Han Jiuli and the other four.

Unlike the situation where Xia Hong was just assassinated, previously only Liu Yuan and the crowd of cold-resistant-level experts and the 600-plus Cloud Dragon Army soldiers took action. After he killed Li Xuantian, the more than 4,000 Earth-Digging Realm experts all followed up, including more and more Earth-Digging Realm experts coming from other places, who also followed up together.

Although Han Jiuli and the other four were very strong, being surrounded by so many people, they couldn't run away even if they wanted to, so they could only wait for Xia Hong to kill them one by one.

The first one Xia Hong killed was Han Jiuli, who was relatively the strongest.

Han Jiuli, who was being surrounded by Hou Jing and others, had already escaped to the vicinity of the iron pile wall on the east side of the encampment. He was only one step away from climbing over the city wall to escape, but unfortunately, he was still beheaded by Xia Hong, who arrived in time.

Next, only Cheng Guang, Song Kang, and Yue Qian, who were weaker, remained.

Xia Hong first found Song Kang. The Yan Han saber slashed his shoulder, and suddenly thick smoke rolled.

"Leader Xia, spare my life..."

Yi!

Just as Xia Hong was about to exert force to behead him, Song Kang actually begged for mercy, and the large saber with blue flames in his hand also disappeared directly.

"Can regain consciousness, different from Li Xuantian and Han Jiuli!"

Xia Hong's eyes flashed slightly. He directly withdrew the large saber, kicked him in front of Liu Yuan and others, and then followed suit, capturing Cheng Guang and Yue Qian alive.

Seeing Xia Hong cleanly and neatly solve the five people, everyone present had faces full of admiration and shock, especially the Cloud Dragon Army soldiers, whose eyes were full of fanaticism.

It's just that this fanaticism soon turned into thick worry.

Pfft............

Xia Hong suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. His already pale face suddenly added a few shades of darkness, and his whole aura instantly withered to the extreme.

"Leader!"

"Leader, how are you?"

Liu Yuan rushed to Xia Hong's side with a face full of shock, and Peng Bo followed closely behind.

Chen Yingba stood in place and pondered for a moment before slowly walking up.

And the remaining eight, including Hou Jing, clearly had subtle expressions.

"Liu Yuan, Peng Bo, send me into the main building. The Cloud Dragon Army will guard the side. Don't let anyone get close. Hou Jing, you take the others to watch the encampment. If any problem arises, I will hold you accountable."

"Subordinate obeys!"

Hou Jing nodded and obeyed immediately;

Liu Yuan directly skipped the etiquette, carried Xia Hong on his back, and rushed toward the main building. The 600-plus Cloud Dragon Army soldiers didn't need him to call at all and automatically followed behind.

"Leader, seriously injured?"

"Must be seriously injured. The first four sabers all injured the bones, and Li Xuantian's saber later was even more terrifying. Must be seriously injured."

"Only calling Liu Yuan and Peng Bo, and letting 600-plus Cloud Dragon Army soldiers watch, not letting anyone get close to the main building, to put it bluntly, he just doesn't trust us few!"

………………

"All shut up!"

Hou Jing directly interrupted the whispering of Dong Zhong, Yu Bin, and others, looked up at the sky, and ordered: "It will be dawn soon, the encampment should be able to settle down for a while. The encampment probably has more than ten thousand Earth-Digging Realm experts. Choose one thousand of the most elite to guard the leader outside the main building. As for the remaining nine thousand, we will each take one thousand to continue watching the encampment and wait for the leader's orders!"

Although the eight had different expressions, they still nodded.

Suddenly, Hou Jing clearly noticed something, a trace of shock appeared on his face, and he looked up at the north side of the encampment fiercely.

"Someone is coming?"

"Quite a few, eleven people."

"Who is it? It wouldn't be Li Ying Xuan Ling's group, would it?"

"Shouldn't be."

…………

The remaining eight also noticed it one after another, and all turned to look at the north side.

"Where is the leader, where is the leader?"

Seeing that the person coming was Yu Wentao, Hou Jing's expression relaxed a lot, but immediately after, he saw that behind Yu Wentao, there were ten more people, actually using five iron pestles to carry a square giant tripod and running over quickly.

Yu Wentao was a bit impatient. After asking twice without getting an answer, he turned to look at Hou Jing and asked: "Senior Hou Jing, where is the leader?"

Hou Jing hesitated for a moment, but still spoke directly and told what happened just now.

"The leader was assassinated and seriously injured?"

"How is this possible?"

………………

Hearing that Xia Hong was assassinated and seriously injured, Yu Wentao and others showed expressions of disbelief one after another. But immediately after, seeing the expressions of Hou Jing and the other nine, they realized that the matter was true, and their faces were suddenly full of worry.

Of course, it wasn't just worry, but also anger.

"How was the leader assassinated?"

"One thousand Cloud Dragon Army soldiers, plus you ten thousand-plus people, what were you all doing? Just watching the assassins approach the leader?"

"Where is Liu Yuan, where is Peng Bo? You have eleven cold-resistant-level experts here, and you let five assassins approach the leader and even seriously injure him."

"The leader is seriously injured, how come you people don't have any injuries at all?"

………………

Yue Feng, Li Yuankun, Zou Yuankai, and a few others directly questioned Hou Jing and the other nine in front of them. The words they said were uglier than the last, completely ignoring their increasingly ugly expressions.

"That's enough, all shut up for now, come with me to see the leader!"

Yu Wentao looked at Hou Jing and others at this moment, and his expression was clearly a bit unkind, but he held it back. After stopping Yue Feng and others, he led them directly toward the main building.

"These Great Xia cold-resistant-level experts, their strength isn't much, but their tempers are one bigger than the other, humph!"

After the eleven walked toward the main building, and Chen Yingba and Wu Tianxing left, Yu Bin was the first to be unable to hold back and snorted.

He was the leader of Xiling and was already over sixty years old this year. Being humiliated and questioned in person by a group of juniors, his face naturally couldn't get past it.

Dong Zhong followed closely behind and sneered: "After all, they are about to take over Longshan's mantle and become the new hegemon of Longyou. It's normal for their tempers to be a bit big!"

Hou Jing didn't pick up the conversation, just listened with a calm gaze.

It was Zhang Ying beside him who suddenly spoke in a ghostly tone: "Besides the leader Xia Hong, the strength of the remaining cold-resistant-level experts in Great Xia doesn't seem to be much............"

Hearing this, Dong Zhong and Yu Bin looked at each other obscurely.

The two clearly intended to say something, but before they could speak, Hou Jing scolded Zhang Ying angrily: "Shut up, Zhang Ying. If you dare to talk nonsense again, this old man will take your head to see the leader and plead guilty. Go do your work!"

Hou Jing clearly still had a lot of prestige in Zhang Ying's heart.

Hearing this, he didn't dare to refute, nodded immediately, turned around, and left.

The remaining Yu Bin and Dong Zhong looked at Hou Jing, their brows knitted, and didn't dare to say anything more, directly turning around and leading people to patrol the encampment.
