After getting drunk, You Tianlang slept until almost midnight. You Tianlang, who had a splitting headache, was woken up by the noise in the carriage. You Tianlang looked at the quilt on his body and carefully recalled why he was sleeping here. Only then did he slowly recall how he drank with Prince Mutong and how he vomited on Prince Mutong. Then…the story ended.
You Tianlang cursed himself in his heart. He had been a ceremonial officer for so long, but he still couldn't control himself at such an important time. He must not make any mistakes this time. Then he thought of Prince Mutong's forthright laughter. He thought to himself, If it weren't for Prince Mutong's bloody brother, who else in the world could make him lose his composure like this? He would definitely hold this debt on him today. When the Dharma Birth was over, he would definitely find an opportunity to make him drunk.
Then, he reached out and lifted the curtain on the carriage, wanting to see what time it was and what was the commotion outside. At a glance, he estimated that it was already the middle of the night. It turned out that he had been drunk for so long. Looking around the carriage where he was lying, he saw his own attendant and two Five Beast Kingdom guards beside him. Thus, You Tianlang tidied his appearance and jumped off the carriage.
When You Tianlang's servant saw that he had woken up, he hurriedly came forward to inform him,"Sir, something big has happened." Several diplomatic missions had been attacked. It was reported that Fengyang Nation, Seven Colors Nation, Taoli Nation, Liuming Nation, Fengyu Nation, and so on. In addition, there were…there were a few princes who were assassinated and died!!”
When You Tianlang heard this, he was shocked and hurriedly asked,"A prince was assassinated!"! What about the Wood Copper Prince?"
The Five Beast Kingdom's guard pointed at a carriage that was heavily surrounded by dozens of guards and said," You have not rested for long, and Prince Mutong has also become drunk. He is still unconscious. We have already sent people to surround the prince's carriage. He is fine."”
You Tianlang walked towards Prince Mutong's carriage and asked his servant,"When did this attack happen?" Did you send a signal to the mountain?"
"Lord Hui Ze and Lord Qian Shanliang have already sent a signal to the mountain and requested for reinforcements from the broadsword team. In addition, the news of the attack was sent by people from Fengyang Kingdom less than an hour ago. The broadsword team should be arriving soon.”
"Less than an hour? Therefore, the assassin who attacked us might still be nearby…"
You Tianlang continued,"Go and find someone who knows the full details. Tell him to explain the process to me."”
Not long after, two people were brought to You Tianlang. One of them was a slightly plump follower from Gale Country, while the other was a short follower from Tao Li Country. They were both messengers sent by the diplomatic mission to inform him of the request for help after the young master was assassinated.
Tianlang asked the messenger of Gale Country to explain the process in detail. The fat messenger said," At 11 o'clock, the young master finished his discussion with the few lords and was about to return to his tent to rest. At this moment, a carriage suddenly came over. Everyone thought," Such a narrow mountain road, more than half of it is occupied by people and carriages. How can there be a carriage that can run like this?" When the carriage walked in, it turned out that it was running through the forest by the roadside. Just as we were wondering how a carriage could be driven like this in the forest, the carriage had already arrived in front of us like a ghost.
Then the coachman asked,"Where is Prince Yongyu of Gale Country?"”
Coincidentally, the prince was standing in front of the tent and casually replied,"I am Yongyu of Gale Country."”
Then, a few white banners, no…white silk, flew out of the carriage like the wind. Then, like butterflies shuttling back and forth, they flew back to the carriage in the blink of an eye.
Before everyone could figure out what was going on, they heard someone shouting,"The prince has been assassinated. Stop them!"!”
When we came back to our senses and wanted to chase after the carriage, it had already disappeared in front of us.”
You Tianlang's brows furrowed tighter and tighter as he slowly asked,"Is Prince Yongyu's wound in his heart?" The weapon was a dagger that was two inches wide and half a foot long?”
The fat attendant was quite surprised. How did You Tianlang know where the wound was? What was the weapon? Ever since Prince Yongyu was assassinated, the guards of the Gale Country had surrounded the scene tightly. Even the guards outside had no idea about this. How could this person in front of him know so much?
You Tianlang continued to ask,"The dagger should still be with Prince Yongyu, right? The unique feature of this dagger is that the hilt is invisible. Therefore, the entire hilt is completely embedded in Prince Yongyu's heart. Even if you want to pull it out, you won't know where to pull it out."”
The fat attendant looked at You Tianlang, a strange look flashing in his eyes. However, he still nodded to show that he acknowledged You Tianlang's words. After all, this person wasn't at the scene just now, so how could he have such a clear grasp of everything?
You Tianlang then slowly and heavily spat out a few words,"This…might be a Whitey carriage!"!”
When the surrounding people heard You Tianlang mention the Whitey Carriage, they initially had an expression of ignorance, as if they did not know what to say about this Whitey Carriage. It was only until a slightly older guard suddenly asked,"The Whitey Carriage that Your Excellency mentioned, is it referring to the Whitey Carriage that seizes souls from the netherworld?"”
As soon as this sentence was said, everyone suddenly understood. Shock and panic instantly replaced their original expressions.
It turned out that the Whitey Carriage had only been a legend in the martial world for decades. Very few people had taken the Whitey Carriage seriously. However, now that it was said by You Tianlang, they did not know if they should take it seriously or continue to treat it as a legend in the martial world.
According to the legends, the Whitey Carriage was the ultimate messenger of the King of Hell. If the Soul Reaper and the Soul Seizer couldn't bring back the soul, the Whitey Carriage could only be used to track it down. The Whitey Carriage could pass through walls and earth, and could ride the wind and water. No one who should die could hide at the ends of the earth.
As for the scene where Whitty's carriage appeared, it did not move at all, but the white silk fluttered in the air. After the dance, the wind blew, and the white silk disappeared, leaving only a hiltless dagger in the chest of the deceased.
Whether these rumors were exaggerated or true, because no one had seen it with their own eyes, the Whitey Carriage had always been a legend that seemed to exist but did not exist. Therefore, as the rumors spread, the Whitey Carriage became the messenger of the King of Hell.
At this moment, You Tianlang was thinking about who the Gale Country had such hatred or interest with. It should be known that the Whitey Carriage had always been doing things with their lives. It was neither for money nor for hatred. What kind of person they wanted to kill, they had to first take what kind of life in exchange.
The king and the crown prince of Gale Country had always been kind to others. They had never heard of any deep hatred with anyone. The domestic and international court situation was also quite stable. Who would pay such a high price to assassinate Prince Yongyu? In particular, asking Whitty's carriage to come forward was definitely a way to kill Prince Yongyu.
He then turned to the short attendant of Taoli Kingdom and asked,"Where's Taoli Kingdom?" Is it also a Whitty carriage?"
Then, he thought to himself, only Whitey's carriage could be the crown prince of the two countries. Otherwise, who else would have the ability to do so? Would there be another crown prince assassinated? However, before they could attack the two Crown Princes, they had to take the lives of two people who were no lower than the Crown Princes. Who had the ability to do so?
Tianlang thought about it again. Assassinating the two crown princes was certainly difficult, but using Whitty's carriage to attack was like using a sledgehammer to kill a chicken.
The short attendant from the Tao Li Kingdom waited until You Tianlang regained his senses before answering,"Sir, it wasn't Whitey's carriage that killed Prince Xiaoqian." We didn't see the carriage, nor did we see the white silk. We only heard the singing, the sobbing and complaining female singing…"
You Tianlang looked at the short attendant and said,"I only heard a woman singing?"”
The short follower nodded. You Tianlang continued,"It's like singing in your ear, it makes people feel unspeakable sorrow. When you all turn around to find the source of the song, the song suddenly stops, and then you find that Prince Xiaoqian has been stabbed?"”
"It's roughly like this. Dozens of guards heard the singing, so everyone looked for the woman who was singing. At this moment, the singing suddenly stopped. How did you assassinate him? What was the weapon? We don't know anything about this."
"If it's a midnight song, then it's like a golden needle piercing through the Baihui acupoint. Take me to see Prince Xiaoqian.”You Tianlang then turned around and whispered a few words into his follower's ear before following the short follower of the Taoli Kingdom.
Along the way, You Tianlang was extremely worried. He thought that the continuous attacks on the Crown Princes of various countries might not be aimed at Gale Country and Tao Li Country. Their target might be Crescent Country.
First of all, the Whitey Carriage alone was already a waste of talent. This Midnight Song was even more of a murderous demon. If they joined forces, they could kill whoever they wanted and destroy whichever country they wanted. If they could invite the masters of these two demons, their opponents would not be small countries like the Myriad Mountain Countries. Even large countries like the Seven Color Country or the Kun Peng Country could not afford to provoke them.
Secondly, it would be easy for them to assassinate these crown princes, but they had to assassinate the Crescent Moon King on the eve of his birthday? Why did he have to assassinate in front of the Crescent Country's gate? These diplomatic missions had traveled thousands of miles from all over the world, and there were plenty of opportunities to make a move along the way. Why did they have to wait until all the diplomatic missions had gathered in front of the Crescent Moon Country's gate before making a move? Wasn't this clearly showing off to the Myriad Mountain Countries and the Crescent Moon Country?
In addition, the Crescent Country had to remove their national seal in order to welcome the diplomatic missions of the various countries. However, at this moment, the Whitey Carriage and Midnight Song Army had arrived at the city. If they did not come intentionally for the Crescent Country, how could they explain it?
Just now, You Tianlang had asked his subordinates to send a signal to the mountain, asking the mountain to send the Iron Armor Team and the Fuyao Team to support them. If the enemy's target was the Crescent Country, and the enemy's troops were already at the city gates, they had to immediately send a large number of troops to suppress and pursue them, in order to prevent this murderous demon from causing trouble again.
However, if the three guards, Big Blade, Iron Armor, and Fuyao, were to be transferred away at the same time, the defense of the city would be weakened. Thus, he had his subordinates rush back to the city and personally inform the pavilion master of the Qingtian Pavilion, who was guarding the city, that he might have to consider whether to immediately activate the country protecting seal to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the opportunity to launch a sneak attack.
Just as You Tianlang was on his way to the Tao Li Nation, he suddenly felt an indescribable abnormality in front of the Fengyang Nation's convoy. You Tianlang could not determine the reason for this abnormality, but his many years of experience told him that something extraordinary must have happened here.
He immediately stopped the fat and short men from following him and slowly walked toward the Fengyang Kingdom's convoy.
Silence. Yes, it was too quiet. At this moment, all the diplomatic groups and carriages were in chaos because of the attack on the crown prince of other countries. Why was Fengyang Country so quiet?
Looking from afar, their carriages were still brightly lit by the torches. They did not look like they had turned off the lights to rest at all. Their guards were still standing upright. It seemed that they had not been attacked. However, why was the air so quiet as if it had been frozen? It was too unbelievable.
The closer he got to the Fengyang Kingdom's convoy, the stronger the strange silence became. It was so strong that he smelled death, and it was death everywhere.
If You Tianlang wasn't wrong, the one or two hundred people in front of him should be dead. Because even though they were so close, You Tianlang didn't feel any trace of life. You Tianlang had cultivated all kinds of spells and immortal power for many years, and had long cultivated a sense of smell like a wolf. It was impossible that he couldn't smell any life when these hundreds of people were right in front of him.
If that was the case, he would not be able to enter that deathly array. He would not be able to deal with an opponent who could meticulously let hundreds of guards die so quietly. He had to wait, wait for the support of the broadsword team. Calculating the time, the broadsword team should not be far from him.
You Tianlang stopped in his tracks and turned around. He wanted the fat and short duo to leave first. He was afraid that they would be in danger if they stayed here. Just by looking back, You Tianlang instantly understood. From his angle, the fat and short men were standing in the only two escape routes. At this moment, the two of them were standing in the "death zone" formed by the Fengyang Kingdom's death formation. This was Asura Manor's signature show.
These two followers were from Asura Manor. They had set a trap for him to jump into. With a thought, the Ghost Guiding Bullet in his hand shot up into the sky.
The Ghost Luring Bullet was a warning shot by the Yuya people with their blood. This was a signal sent by the Yuya people when they determined that they had no chance of survival. This signal was not used to ask for help, but to warn. This was because the person who had sent the signal knew that he had no way out. This signal was a warning to his companions around him. At this moment, he was facing a threat that even if he had the time to send a signal, he still had no chance to escape or counterattack.
Tianlang's Ghost Luring Bomb was also telling the Towering Sky Pavilion Master that he did not need to wait for any reports and immediately activated the National Protection Seal because the enemy was coming for the Crescent Country or even the Crescent Mountain.
You Tianlang knew that the fat and short followers would take his life in the next moment. However, before that moment arrived, his heart was still filled with worries and question marks. He was worried that Asura Manor was the only one coming.
Because he was trapped in the death zone set up by Asura Manor, he was 100% sure that Asura Manor was in front of him.
What about the Whitty Carriage and the Midnight Song? Was that a lie made up by Fatty and Shorty to lure him in, or were the three demons joining forces to launch an attack on Crescent Mountain?
If it was the former, it would be worth it to sacrifice his own life to warn the Towering Sky Pavilion Master to take early precautions!! However, if it was the latter, even if they could withstand it, there would probably be a river of blood. Could the Crescent Country withstand it? If the Crescent Country couldn't resist, what would happen to the Crescent Mountain?
Also, the Crown Princes of the Myriad Mountain Countries were all on this road. If they started a massacre, the guards would not be able to withstand a single blow. In this case, the Myriad Mountain Countries would definitely fall into chaos. He immediately thought of the 30-year war that the Myriad Mountain Countries had experienced a hundred years ago.
The process of waiting for death was a long one. It was also a long time to face a series of unsolvable worries. It was even longer to wait for Asura Manor's fatal blow. Tianlang was so anxious that he sincerely hoped that death would come as soon as possible.
At this moment, he suddenly heard the fat attendant say,"It was just a snap of the finger. I didn't expect you to notice it so quickly. What surprised me even more was that you were able to release the Ghost Guiding Bullet with a clear spiritual altar in a lifeless situation. If the Ghost Luring Bomb hadn't been used, you would have been a corpse by now. Our next step would be to attack the Crescent Moon Mountain with all our might while the Crescent Moon Kingdom was caught off guard. Since the Ghost Luring Bomb has been used, the country's protective seal will definitely be reactivated. It doesn't matter whether you die or not.”
The short attendant also said,"It seems that the Crescent Country is not without capable people. Although your martial arts skills are not worth mentioning, your knowledge and decisiveness are still considered to be a figure. The two of us admire you. We will keep your life." After all, we launched a sneak attack on you this time, and it was an unfair victory. We wanted to kill you before you fired the Ghost Guiding Bullet, so you had a reason to die. Now that this reason is gone, we have decided to give you a chance to fight us openly.”
Hearing this, You Tianlang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He could only helplessly say to the two of them,"Forget about winning. If I could still have a ten to twenty percent chance of escaping from fighting with you, why would I need to send out a warning?" What difference does it make to me if I die a little later? How about this, I won't have to fight you. Just let me die with a clear understanding, don't let me die in a muddle.”
You Tianlang knew that even if they fought, they would not be able to escape death. He was even more afraid that if the Big Saber Team rushed over to help, it would be a waste of their lives. It was best if they could get a few words out before they died. At the same time, he would find an opportunity to spread the information so that his companions could be prepared.
"We know very well what you're thinking. Go ahead. We don't want to fight you alone. Even if we lose your broadsword team, it won't be enough. Go back and prepare well.”The short follower said confidently to You Tianlang.
When had You Tianlang ever been ridiculed like this? However, these two people were from Asura Manor…He didn't know which one of them said that they wanted to fight against his two armies openly, but it could be said that they had given him a lot of face. Although from another perspective, they just didn't want to personally end an opponent of this level, so it could be considered as sparing his life.
It seemed like he had never heard of someone being spared by Asura Manor. Thinking about it, there was nothing embarrassing about it. It was just that there were still many things that he did not understand. Now that he was back in the city, how should he explain this matter? Who was his opponent? Who else was his opponent? Why did they attack the Crescent Country? Why did they kill the crown princes of the countries in the mountains? I still don't know anything about all of this. I can't go back and tell them that Asura Manor spared my life and asked me to inform them that they're preparing to attack us, right?
Therefore, You Tianlang could only shamelessly ask a few questions,"Why don't you just tell me who sent you to deal with the Crescent Country?" Other than you, who else? This was what a battle between two armies was like. Otherwise, if the battle was not clear, it would be the same as a sneak attack!!”
The short attendant smiled coldly and said,"You're indeed a diplomat. You're so shameless." I can't say anything more about being entrusted by someone and being loyal to someone. Since I've already told you about Whitty's carriage, Midnight Song, and Asura Manor, I won't hide it anymore. You can't think of anything else, so I advise you not to waste your energy thinking about these meaningless things.”
After saying that, the fat and short duo disappeared into the darkness. The originally brightly lit Fengyang Country's encampment was also instantly extinguished. The surroundings returned to the silence of midnight and the deathly stillness of a place where one or two hundred corpses were laid.
Immediately after, the footsteps of the machete team came from behind. You Tianlang thought that these companions must not have known that they had just passed through the gates of hell. If he had not fired his Ghost Guiding Bullet in time, he would have died in the hands of Asura Manor at this moment. The machete team that followed closely would most likely not be able to escape.
Today was a narrow escape, but what about tomorrow? Just Asura Manor alone was enough to render him helpless. What should he do with the Whitty Carriage and Midnight Song? Who else did they not say?
Thinking of this, You Tianlang felt cold again. He had to hurry back to the Crescent Country to discuss what to do with the tens of thousands of diplomatic missions. How should the Crescent Country fight against these demons from hell?
