Kyushu Daoist Master

The team stopped, which meant they had arrived at their destination. Although Yang Ze had been in Zhining City for a short time, he had collected a lot of information about Zhining City after visiting the base of Piaomiao Martial Academy several times.

The layout of Zhining City was very similar to that of Yuyang City. Zhining City was also divided into the inner city and the outer city. The City Lord's Mansion was located in the center of the city.

A high wall was specially built in the core area of ​​the inner city, and the City Lord's Mansion was inside that high wall.

The City Lord's Mansion occupied a large area, because the Black Armored Cavalry and the City Lord's Guards had to stay inside. The two armies alone had more than 3,000 people, plus some other government officials and assistants. If the City Lord's Mansion was not big enough, it would not be able to accommodate so many people.

Tonight, Lei Pinghui, the City Lord of Zhining City, was in his study, with ink flying on a piece of white paper. On that white paper, an ink painting was taking shape quickly.

But at the moment when this ink painting was about to be completed, Lei Pinghui's hand suddenly paused, and the position of the pen was crooked. He drew crookedly, leaving a mark in the upper right corner of the ink painting.

Lei Pinghui put down the ink pen, gently picked up the ink painting with both hands, and looked at the whole piece of paper. He looked at the stroke in the upper corner, and his brows were tightly furrowed on his plain face.

At this moment, the door of the study room was withdrawn, and a fifty-year-old man with a mustache walked in quickly from outside. He saw the ink painting in Lei Pinghui's hand, and a smile just appeared on his face. He was about to say something complimenting, but he immediately saw that the stroke in the upper right corner of the paper was crooked, and the words were stuck in his throat before they came out.

The face of the man with the mustache turned ugly. He swallowed what he was about to say and said, "Lord City Lord, how about I ask my subordinates to change a set of painting tools for you?"

"No need. The problem is not with the painting tools, but with the painter." Lei Pinghui put the ink painting in his hand back.

The man with the mustache was shocked when he heard this. He knew very well that the Lord City Lord in front of him, in addition to being in charge of the huge Zhining City, had a great hobby of calligraphy and painting. He had studied this for more than 30 years and was well-known in the whole Le'an Prefecture.

Even if he did not have the identity of the Lord of Zhining City, there were many people who wanted to get a painting of his calligraphy. He could be considered a master painter.

For such a master painter, painting an ordinary ink painting was just a simple thing, and there would be no accidents. At least the man with the mustache had not seen the Lord City Lord for more than ten years, and there was a problem in the process of painting.

"Lord City Lord, let me help you get rid of these things first." When the man with a mustache spoke, he had already stretched out his hand to take these things away.

"Shimu, don't touch these things, leave them here tonight." Lei Pinghui said lightly, and the man with a mustache called Shimu retracted his hand.

Shimu stood in place at this moment, looking at the city lord tonight. For a moment, he was a little panicked in his heart. He has been the staff of the city lord of Zhining City for sixteen years, but this is the first time he has seen the city lord behave like this.

Lei Pinghui is not an ordinary person to be able to serve as the city lord of Zhining City. In addition to the deep family behind him, Lei Pinghui himself is a warrior in the middle stage of the third-grade Kaimai realm.

After so many years in office, Lei Pinghui knows that it is not enough to just occupy a high position in this world, and he also needs to have enough strength, so he has never relaxed his practice and used his power to collect a lot of resources to have the current skills.

As a third-rank warrior, Shi Mu originally thought that he could see through people's hearts after following him for so many years, but now he felt the same as when he first met Lei Pinghui, and he couldn't see what Lei Pinghui was thinking.

Although Lei Pinghui put the ink painting back, his eyes never left the ink painting. He kept staring at the ink painting and glanced at Shi Mu again.

"Is there anything unusual tonight?" As a warrior with some strength, Lei Pinghui often has some premonitions, whether something will happen next, but the premonitions are usually vague. Only tonight, his heart has been beating wildly, and he always feels as if something big is going to happen.

Suddenly hearing Lei Pinghui ask this, Shi Mu was startled, and after a pause, he answered: "Your Excellency, the Black Armor Cavalry is stationed in the inner city tonight, and two thousand guards are guarding various checkpoints, and there is no abnormality."

One thousand Black Armor Cavalry, two thousand guards, and thousands of officers and soldiers directly under the City Lord's Mansion, plus a large number of martial arts masters from the Zhining City government, Lei Pinghui has been in office for so many years, and basically no one dares to offend the majesty of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Now pass on my order to order the Black Armor Cavalry to come back and station tonight. In addition, you go and ask all the worshippers to go to the fifth floor dungeon tonight. I'm afraid that the thing in the deepest part of the dungeon will cause some trouble tonight." Although Lei Pinghui heard Shi Mu report that nothing happened, he was still very worried.

Hearing that Lei Pinghui was talking about the thing in the deepest part of the dungeon, Shi Mu's body trembled unconsciously. Thinking of the horror of that thing, he didn't dare to delay any longer and immediately withdrew from the study.

After Shi Mu left, Lei Pinghui was the only one left in the study again. Looking at the drawing papers piled up on the table, Lei Pinghui put aside the failed ink painting and picked up another one.

The pen was stained with ink, and just as he put down the first stroke on the paper, suddenly, there was an explosion from the northeast of the City Lord's Mansion, and the entire ground of the City Lord's Mansion shook.

Lei Pinghui, who was about to write a word, suddenly changed his expression, all the indifference on his face disappeared, and he rushed out of the study room.

Standing outside, he looked to the northeast. Although it was a long distance away, he could still feel that there was a large number of people gathering at that location.

The warrior's Qi and blood are very powerful, and the Qi and blood emanating over there is even more powerful. One can tell at a glance that there must be a lot of people gathered there.

Lei Pinghui's face became ugly, because that location was exactly where he was when he was ruling the dungeon in Ningcheng. There were thousands of his personal guards guarding the outside of the dungeon. Even a second-grade warrior could not remain silent. He broke in breathlessly.

Moreover, he set up a formation on the fifth floor of the dungeon. The formation was not very strong, but it was obtained by him personally going to a sect thousands of miles away. You must know that the cultivation of a formation is more difficult than Ordinary martial arts training is more difficult, and there are only a few sects in the entire Le'an Mansion that can set up formations.

Although he is the lord of Zhining City, he cannot exchange for a powerful formation, so he can only exchange for a formation with a reminder function.

This formation's ability to block enemies is not high, but once someone sneaks into the fifth floor of the dungeon, a warning sound will immediately sound. In just a few breaths, the entire city lord's mansion will know that someone has sneaked into the dungeon.

"Who on earth can actually avoid my personal guards and sneak into the dungeon? There must be a traitor!" The study is located in a very high position in the city lord's palace. Lei Pinghui stood here and looked into the distance intently. The next moment, A general wearing armor quickly ran to his side.

"General Chen, summon all the troops in the inner city to guard the city lord's palace. The black-armored cavalry will block the exit of the dungeon. Send the personal guards and all warriors above the innate level to follow me down to the dungeon!"

"General, take the order!" General Chen cupped his fists to take the order, then his body swayed and disappeared again.

After General Chen left, Lei Pinghui reached into the study and made a move. A long sword flew out of the study and landed on his hand. He jumped up and Lei Pinghui's body floated out.

…

In the dungeon of Zhining City, dozens of corpses were lying on the fourth floor of the dungeon. The entire fourth floor of the dungeon was densely packed with people, hundreds of them, making the dungeon very crowded.

A huge gap was opened on one side of the dungeon wall, and there were still many people standing inside. Because the space in the fourth floor of the dungeon was limited, they could not all come out.

At the entrance to the fifth floor of the fourth-floor dungeon, Xu Qi and others were standing there, as well as the thirteen third-level warriors wearing masks. They had all entered the fifth floor.

The area of ​​the fifth floor was several times larger than that of the fourth floor. As soon as they stepped in, lights suddenly lit up around the fifth floor dungeon, and a vague pattern emitted a loud sound. The sound of explosions spread outside.

"Damn it, there is a formation!" The masked man in the middle cursed, took a step forward, and pressed his palm towards the fifth floor of the dungeon. The force of his palm exploded, and a strong wind whipped up and fell into the dungeon. The vague formation pattern turned into nothing.

"Such a big movement will definitely be discovered by Lei Pinghui, so we can only implement the plan in advance." The man said coldly, destroying the formation with one palm.

Xu Qi took a step back and shouted to the back: "Everyone come out of the tunnel immediately. Houtian warriors go up to the first three floors and release all the prisoners. Xiantian warriors release the prisoners on the fourth floor and delay them as much as possible." People who live in government offices.

The rest of the first-level warriors and the Houtian warriors who are on their first mission, come to the fifth floor immediately, hurry up! "

After giving the order, the rebels immediately moved into action. Yang Ze and his group of "blood eaters" were driven out of the tunnel by the rebels from behind and were driven to the fifth floor of the dungeon.

Yang Ze walked out along with the crowd and looked up at the dungeons on the upper floors. He heard that a large number of troops had gathered above and would kill them at any time.
