Chapter 2686 Sneak Attack
Red Maple Valley, the seat of the Hundred Kings Sect.
Two days ago, the sect leader Guo Xiang celebrated the birthday of his seventh concubine, playing music, wearing red and green clothes, making the entire Hundred Kings Sect very lively.
Just when the guests and hosts were enjoying themselves, bad news came that the eldest son and young master Guo Rui had been captured.
At that time, Guo Xiang's face fell, but in just a moment, he recovered and still held the entire birthday ceremony.
It's not that Guo Xiang loves his concubine more than his eldest son. Strictly speaking, he doesn't like women.
In recent years, concubines have been brought home one after another, and not only are they holding wedding banquets, but they are also throwing birthday gifts.
Seeing him acting like the sect leader and not doing anything serious, in fact, he was also suffering.
In order to maintain the Hundred Kings Sect, it is really not easy for him. If he hadn't cleverly created names and accepted gifts in various ways, the daily expenses would have been unsustainable.
On this day, Guo Xiang was sitting in the hall, looking through his account books. Facing the increasingly thin gift money, he felt a headache. He secretly thought about whether to promulgate a new sect rule that each gift should not be less than one silver coin. He After all, he is also the leader of a faction. Are you shameless?
Suddenly, Guo Xiang turned to a certain page of the gift list. He couldn't take his eyes off it anymore, and his anger surged. "Well, you only have two cents and three copper coins. You really dare to pay for it."
At this moment, Fang Zongdao walked in and said with a worried look on his face, "Sect Master, tomorrow is the agreed date, how can we get the eldest son back, right..."
Guo Xiang's face flashed with green energy, and suddenly he put on a smiling face and patted Fang Zongdao on the shoulder, "Old Fang, you don't have to think too much. Ruier's fault is because he has always been too high-profile. , this day will come sooner or later. I have already made an idea about how to negotiate tomorrow, so you don’t have to worry about it. By the way, Lao Guo has gone to Jinguang Sect, is there any news? "
Fang Zongdao said, "There is news. Jinguang Sect has agreed to send people to support, but we have to pay for it."
Guo Xiang couldn't help but said angrily, "Money, money, everyone is putting their hands in the coffin - if you want money, go tell Lao Chen and just say what I said. When the West Third District is appointed to the official position next year, I will vote for Long Tailai." One ticket."
Fang Zongdao was startled, "Sect Master, aren't you going up?"
Guo Xiang stared at Fang Zongdao, "What, you're interested in my position?"
Fang Zongdao and Guo Tian were both Wuquan Sages who successfully attacked during his tenure. Fang Zongdao attacked three times and Guo Tian attacked five times, all consuming the resources of the Hundred Kings Sect.
Regardless of the purpose, he was kind to Fang Zongdao and Guo Tian.
And when he chose these two people, he also tested their character. If he didn't value love and righteousness, he wouldn't dare to give this opportunity. After all, he, the leader of the sect, is only a sage and is still far away from Sanhua. Huge distance.
Because of this, he often joked with Fang and Guo, half teasing and half knocking.
Fang Zongdao said, "I don't dare." He only said that the opportunity was rare and it was not worthwhile to give up.
Guo Xiang sighed and said, "I have given birth to such an evil son, and there is nothing I can do about it."
He lamented like this, but in fact, he had nothing to regret. He had carefully considered it.
With his current accumulated wealth, even if he got into the Black Mansion, he would not be able to be promoted to a first-class official in a short time.
Rather than going up and becoming a second-class official and sinking for many years, it is better to accumulate enough capital first.
As for Guo Rui, when he thought of the few gold coins he was rewarded on impulse, he couldn't help but feel pain in his heart.
While the two were talking, a middle-aged man in black robes rushed in quickly and shouted, "fixing astrolabe, fixing astrolabe, locked, locked."
With a flick of the brush, Guo Xiang and Fang Zongdao stood up at the same time. Guo Xiang waved the person away, stared at Fang Zongdao and said, "Old Fang, what do you think about this?"
Fang Zongdao pondered for a moment and said, "I think it is expected. At that time, I wanted to use the dragon mark on the young sect leader's body to ban, but I had never heard of anyone who could remove this mark. Now it seems that that person is just After using the formation to shield the Dragon Mark Taboo, if it is released now, the formation will probably be difficult to maintain. After all, the cost of a formation that can shield the Dragon Mark Taboo cannot be small."
Guo Xiang said, "Without further delay, notify Guo Tian immediately and ask the Jinguang Sect's troops to come over immediately and set off immediately."
Guo Xiang knows very well how important it is to be surprised when facing a battle.
It stands to reason that tomorrow is the date agreed by Xu Yi, but if you think about it with your toes, if the hostages are exchanged tomorrow, Xu Yi must have made complete preparations, which will be disadvantageous in the battle.
If it were launched suddenly at this time and directly attacked the thief's nest of the old demon of emptiness, it would definitely have unexpected effects.
Fang Zongdao was about to obey the order and leave, but was stopped by Guo Xiang, "Old Fang, contact Chixia Old Demon for me."
Fang Zongdao was stunned and looked at Guo Xiang in disbelief. Guo Zongzhu's temperament valued wealth as much as his life. He knew better than anyone that Chixia's asking price was never low. Could it be that this was for the sake of his parents and children? original capital?
Guo Xiang said, "If you don't move, you will be done. If you move, you will go all out. You may have only seen the tip of the iceberg of the horror of the old demon of emptiness. You can never be too careful when dealing with such an enemy. What's more, the capital has been so huge." , I cannot accept any failure."
…………
A fierce beam of light blasted from the clouds in the western sky, and the range exceeded Xu Yi's perception radius. Only when there was a sign did he have time to move his body, and he couldn't even take care of Guo Rui, who was left sleeping aside.
The entire mountain peak collapsed in an instant, and the sea of clouds rolled in all directions. In the terrifying air waves like the rapids of a waterfall, Guo Rui was snatched away before he could even control his body.
"Plans don't change quickly, so just act as the situation arises."
The wild thoughts arrived in time.
Xu Yi secretly cried out for bad luck.
He deliberately released Guo Rui's mark because he guessed that these people were going to make a surprise attack on him.
Based on this, he made reasonable arrangements to prevent a sudden attack and alarm the crystal beast. He deliberately moved the fighting position away from Woyun Peak.
At that time, he would use Guo Rui to slowly lure the enemy, but he never expected that the opponent's methods were so sharp that he would take Guo Rui back in one move.
Before the billowing smoke and dust settled, dozens of figures appeared in front of the array, and it was Guo Xiang who led a large force to arrive.
Fang Zongdao quickly tore off the rope around Guo Rui and slapped him awake. Guo Rui saw Guo Xiang and the others, trembling with excitement, and shouted loudly, "Father, father, kill this man who has been stabbed a thousand times for me." The dog thief is captured, don’t kill him, I will take care of this dog thief carefully for a hundred years, otherwise, it will not disappear from my heart..."
As he said that, he turned his head and stared at Xu Yi, his eyes tearing open and his teeth gnashing. What he experienced in just two days would definitely become a nightmare that would haunt him for the rest of his life.
Suddenly, he saw the Corpse Pill in Xu Yi's palm, and he immediately stopped roaring with gnashing teeth, his eyes filled with despair.
Xu Yi said with a smile, "The one in red should be Guo Xiang, Sect Master Guo. It turns out that Young Master Guo is your biological son. How similar. I really didn't expect that the dignified Sect Master Guo would be so disregarding his identity and send out such a large formation. Fighting against Xu, but still resorting to sneak attacks."
