C2764 Soul Extinguishing Crossbow
The Soul Extinguishing Crossbow.
The next day, as usual, the people of Dugu family did what they were supposed to do. However, under their calm expressions, their hearts were filled with anxiety.
In a certain courtyard in the imperial palace of Yanjing.
A young man wearing a bright yellow robe was sitting in a stone pavilion. A few beautiful maidservant was peeling fruits for him, cutting them and feeding them to him.
This person was the ninth son of the Yan Emperor, Ninth Prince, who was aloof from worldly affairs in the eyes of everyone!
In front of Ninth Prince, there was an Old Eunuch kneeling by his feet. He placed a horsetail whisk on the ground and bowed deeply to Ninth Prince. ... Old Eunuch got Ninth Prince's permission and stood up. He bowed and said, "Reporting to Ninth Prince, this old servant just sent someone to Dugu Mansion to take a look. Dugu Mansion is still the same as usual."
"Same as usual?"
Ninth Prince muttered to himself thoughtfully, then said indifferently, "Chen Lie Xing went to the Dugu Mansion and never came out. Tell me, with his strength of the sixth grade of the soul devourer, who in the Dugu Mansion would be a match for him?"
Old Eunuch said in a low voice, "Ninth Prince, although Chen Lie Xing's cultivation base is not very high, with the strength of Dugu Mansion, there is no reason to keep him here."
"Is that so? Hehe..."
Ninth Prince laughed lightly, "This time, I did not obtain the Yin Spirit Record, but instead, I lost a group of my subordinates. I already suspected that Dugu Mo had betrayed me. It seems like this is really the case."
Old Eunuch was slightly shocked. "You mean there are still other soul devourers in Dugu Mansion? Did he send someone to seize the Yin Spirit Record?"
"Other than that, what other reason do you have? Do you think that Chen Lie Xing would dare to betray me?"
Ninth Prince smiled.
Old Eunuch's mood instantly became heavier, "Ninth Prince, the person who seized the Yin Spirit Record must have a strong cultivation base. Perhaps, this old servant will have to make a trip there personally."
"En, that's exactly what I wanted. You can bring ten spirit guards along with you."
Ninth Prince said with a smile.
When Old Eunuch heard this, a trace of joy flashed across his eyes. "Thank you, Ninth Prince!"
Spirit guards, as the name implied, protected spirit rank experts. Being able to protect spirit rank experts, they would definitely not be weak!
They were all men of sacrifice personally brought out by Ninth Prince. Each one of them was at least a seventh-grade soul devourer powerhouse. Even though they were slightly inferior to Old Eunuch's ninth grade soul devourer, they were even more inferior to Spirit Level Expert. However, these spirit guards all had a special weapon in their hands!
Soul Extinguishing Crossbow!
Soul devourers were invulnerable, but the Soul Extinguishing Crossbow directly killed souls. Not only did it have an extremely strong lethality towards soul devourers, even if the Spirit Level Expert was surrounded by a large group of people holding the Soul Extinguishing Crossbow, they would still be somewhat afraid!
With ten spirit guards following him, Old Eunuch's heart was immediately filled with confidence. Before this, he was very afraid of that expert who killed Hengshan Robber Boss. Because even he couldn't kill an Eighth Stage Soul Devouring expert so cleanly!
...
At the entrance of the Dugu Mansion, two guards were eyeing their surroundings covetously. Their eyes were filled with vigilance. Suddenly, they saw an Old Eunuch walking towards the Dugu Mansion with ten strong men wearing special clothes. Their facial expression changed instantly. One of them immediately turned around and entered the Dugu Mansion.
"Go and inform Dugu Mo that I have brought Ninth Prince's imperial edict."
Weng Yuv held the horsetail whisk in his hand and led the ten spiritual guards to the main gate of the Dugu Mansion. He looked at the fearful and frightened looking guard of the Dugu Mansion and said faintly.
"Ninth Prince's imperial edict..."
When the guard heard this, a trace of panic flashed across his eyes. Last night, he had also surrounded and killed that young man with injuries on his body. Naturally, he knew that the one who wanted to destroy the Dugu Mansion was Ninth Prince, and now, he had sent an Old Eunuch. Behind him were ten strong men whose depths couldn't be seen. They must have come with ill intentions!
"Someone has already gone to report this. Please wait for a moment, Gonggong."
The guard said in a low voice.
"How dare you!"
Weng Yuv said darkly, "Don't tell me you want me to wait at the door? When did Dugu Mo become so bold? Or can you help Dugu Mo make the decision? "
"This..."
The guard was shocked and panicked. If it was any other time, he would not be so afraid.
At this moment, another guard ran out, "The Lord wants you to go in."
The door was soon fully opened. Weng Yuv looked inside and sneered. He walked into the Dugu Mansion with ten guards with a proud look on his face.
In the living room.
Almost everyone from the Dugu family had arrived, just like last night. Their eyes were filled with nervousness, and they would often look at Ning Qi. When they saw Ning Qi's calm expression, they felt slightly relieved in their hearts.
Only Nangong Quchan and Dugu Yuner would occasionally glance at Ning Qi with a strange expression. Ning Qi had already noticed this, but he didn't show it on his face.
"Lingfeng, Weng Yuv is a eunuch of the older generation in the Imperial Palace. He served the Yan Emperor before, and he is already old. Will Ninth Prince send him here to seek peace with us?"
Dugu Mo looked at Ning Qi and said.
"Given your understanding of Ninth Prince's temperament, will he seek peace with someone?"
Ning Qi smiled.
"No."
Dugu Mo shook his head. His eyes became serious. Since Ninth Prince was not here to ask for peace, Weng Yuv must have come with bad intentions.
"Originally thought that he would come personally. Looking at this, he still has many usable people under his command. At least, they are a little stronger than that person last night. When I, Jian, get rid of his wings, he will personally come to Dugu Mansion."
Ning Qi smiled.
When everyone saw that he spoke lightly, they calmed down more and more in their hearts.
Not long after that, Weng Yuv brought ten Spirit Guards into the living room. His eyes immediately fell upon Dugu Mo.
Weng Yuv's eyes narrowed when he saw that there were no injuries on Dugu Mo's body. He pulled on the Duke Duck's throat and said with a smile, "Dugu Mo, Ninth Prince has something he wants me to tell you."
"Speak."
Dugu Mo said plainly.
"Ninth Prince said that as long as you hand over the Yin Spirit Record, Dugu family will be allowed to leave Yanjing and Yan Country!"
Weng Yuv smiled.
Yin Spirit Record?
Dugu Mo sighed in his heart. Ninth Prince probably did not return to report to Chen Lie Xing last night. He had already guessed that there was a soul devourer stronger than Chen Lie Xing in Dugu family. The Dugu family had betrayed Ninth Prince, and the crime of seizing the Yin Spirit Record was set in stone!
"I know Ninth Prince very well. He would never leave his enemies alive. Even if he handed over ten Yin Spirit Record, he would never let this matter rest. I'm just curious. Is Eunuch Weng really here to pass down the decree on Ninth Prince's behalf? Half of your body is already buried in the ground. If we start a fight later... It's inevitable that you will be injured. Aren't you afraid of death? "
Dugu Mo smiled and said.
"Is that so?"
Weng Yuv laughed lightly. He suddenly raised his foot and lightly stomped on the ground. Everyone heard a loud sound. Immediately after, with Weng Yuv as the center, the green bricks on the ground cracked and spread out like spider webs.2
"Is this Old Eunuch also a soul devourer?"
Dugu Mo was shocked. He did not expect Dugu Mo to hide so deeply. Even though he had worked for Ninth Prince before, and had even met the boss of the Mount Heng Pirate Gang, he had never known that Weng Yuv was hiding so deeply.
The people of Dugu Mansion looked at the cracks on the ground, and at Weng Yuv, their eyes revealed a trace of shock.
