Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

"surrender?"

"too late!"

"When you attack Duke Zhenguo, your lives should be judged in hell."

Zhou Zheng's pupils shrank, his murderous intent undisguised in his words.

"Kill us, you don't even know!"

"Keep me alive so we can tell you everything we know..."

These killers are really scared.

When they heard the gunshot last night, they had a premonition that something was not going to happen. Unfortunately, facing the huge temptation and the close victory, they still wanted to take a gamble.

They originally thought that if they could not capture Qingyun Temple and kill Duke Zhen before dawn, they would retreat.

Unfortunately, the elite Zhenbei Army arrived faster than they imagined.

"kill!"

Zhou Zheng didn't say any nonsense. With a low roar, Xiao Hu couldn't bear it anymore. He walked up personally, drew out his long knife, and stabbed the killers who were kneeling on the ground and put down their weapons.

Every strike was cruel and decisive, filled with a strong sense of revenge.

Just now, he wanted to leave two people alive. After all, he dared to assassinate Xiao Mu. This matter was definitely not simple.

But since Zhou Zheng had already given the order, he didn't have to have any scruples.

Seeing that there was no hope of survival, the other killers looked at each other, and finally there was a trace of cruelty in their eyes.

Since you can't survive, then take the Zhenbei Army to support you.

They picked up the weapons on the ground again and prepared for a final stand.

bang bang bang! ! !

It's a pity that the Zhenbei Army would not give them this opportunity.

The musket cocked and the bullets fired.

In an instant, all these people were sieved.

"Report!"

"Master Marquis, all killers have been eliminated within the entire Gate of Life and Death!"

At the same time, a scout came to report.

There are hundreds of killers within the entire Gate of Life and Death. Such a number is really shocking.

But now neither Zhou Zheng nor Xiao Hu have time to care about these things, and their eyes are fixed on Qingyun Temple.

Such a big movement must have attracted the attention of the people in Qingyun Temple.

Crunch!

Sure enough, when the gunfire stopped, the iron door was slowly opened.

Everyone's attention fell on it, and the one who opened the door had a bloody face.

The entire face, except for the rotating pupils, was covered in blood, which looked quite oozing.

And this face made Zhou Zheng's heart beat faster.

It's Ganmo!

Hiss, hiss! ! !

While Zhou Zheng kept sucking in cold air, an ominous feeling suddenly arose.

Gan Mo was so powerful, but when his whole body appeared in front of them, there were countless wounds, and the bones were visible in some serious places.

And his body was so weak that it seemed like all his strength was expended just to open the iron door.

"Gan Mo!"

"Quickly, take him for treatment!"

Zhou Zheng took three steps and then two. This was the first time he had seen Gan Mo suffer such serious injuries.

What kind of fierce and fierce battle took place last night to cause the strongest man in Dazhou to be so seriously injured! ?

"Master, slave, slave, live up to everyone's expectations..."

Seeing Zhou Zheng appear in front of him, Gan Mo forced a smile on his face.

Then he staggered and was about to fall.

Zhou Zheng hurried over to help him. His eyes were bloodshot and the anger in his heart continued to rise.

If he had known that Gan Mo would be so seriously injured, nothing he could have said would have made those killers die so easily.

"Don't talk, leave the rest to me!"

Forcibly suppressing the sadness and anger in his heart, Zhou Zheng asked the military doctor to take Gan Mo down.

Then, he ordered everyone else to protect the entire Qingyun Temple, and he took Xiao Hu towards the Qingyun Temple.

......

When I stepped into Qingyun Temple, the pungent smell of blood filled the air.

There were corpses everywhere.

Obviously, the initial assassination and fighting broke out from within Qingyun Temple.

If nothing else, it must have been the diehard loyalists around Xiao Mu who used their own lives to force the killers out of Qingyun Temple.

And the towering walls around Qingyun Temple are even more dotted with blades.

Obviously, these sharp blades are the key to the entire Qingyun Temple not being breached.

The further you go inside, the more corpses there are.

In addition to the diehard loyalists around Xiao Mu and the killers in black robes, there were also many ordinary people.

Obviously, the battle was more fierce than Zhou Zheng imagined.

"Cough cough!!!"

Finally, in the deepest part of Qingyun Temple, a deep coughing sound caught the attention of Zhou Zheng and Xiao Hu.

At that moment, Xiao Hu clenched the long knife in his hand, and Zhou Zheng also raised his pistol.

Until, they saw a figure on a futon in a Taoist temple.

The figure leaned under the giant statue, and his aura was extremely weak.

He was covered in blood and his face was pale.

It's Xiao Mu!

Zhou Zheng and Xiao Hu couldn't bear it anymore and rushed over.

Especially Xiao Hu, who knelt in front of Xiao Mu on the spot, with tears in his eyes, and kept kowtowing.

He could already tell that Gan Mo was at the end of his strength.

If I had come a little later, I was afraid that the Xiao Mu I saw today would not even be able to breathe.

"At such an old age..."

"Why are you crying?!"

"In front of Your Majesty, Your Majesty, how...have you behaved!?"

Xiao Mu seemed to be blaming him, but after a few words, his coughing became even worse.

His mouth was full of blood, and he didn't even have the strength to raise his hands.

"Grandpa, don't speak for now. Leave the rest to Zheng'er."

It was also the first time for Zhou Zheng to see Xiao Mu injured like this.

Although Xiao Mu waved his hand and said it was a minor injury, Zhou Zheng knew very well that he just didn't want him to worry.

Holding back the sadness in his heart, Zhou Zheng squatted beside Xiao Mu and tried to help Xiao Mu up.

Now, the most important thing is to send Xiao Mu back to the Zhenguo Duke's residence for medical treatment.

"His Majesty......"

However, Xiao Mu shook his head.

"Your Majesty, Xiao Bao, Xiao Bao may still be alive..."

A few more heavy coughs.

Xiao Mu's first reaction was not to survive the disaster, but to care about Xiao Bao.

The Xiao family is full of loyal people, but it is a pity that they have no heirs.

This time Xiao Bao's clues seemed to give him a glimmer of hope.

Even though he knew that this might be a trap, he still came without hesitation.

"Don't worry, I will investigate this matter myself."

Zhou Zheng couldn't bear to say something that would break Xiao Mu's fantasy at this time.

After all, anyone with a discerning eye knows that if Xiao Bao is really alive, there will be no news.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Mu was stunned, and then sighed, his eyes becoming a little hollow.

"Go back to the Duke's Mansion first..."

"I want to investigate this matter thoroughly and make it clear!"

Seeing Xiao Mu fall into coma again, Zhou Zheng could no longer contain the murderous intention in his heart.

His fists were clenched, his pupils flashed with cold light!
