Chapter 319: The Cuckoo Takes over the Magpie's Nest

Li Changxiao took a step back and hid in the shadows. He saw the three black shadows approaching from far away at a very fast speed.

Judging from their movements, they were probably martial artists with Tongqiao Dao, holding long spears in their hands. They were very fast and agile, flying over the eaves and walls, and seemed to be intentionally hiding their tracks and approaching the military camp. The three people had a clear purpose and went straight to the hanging corpses.

However, the snake people had sharp hearing and had already noticed the traces of the three people, but they pretended not to know, insidious and cunning, luring the enemy deep into the depths, and the three people really fell into the trap. They thought they had successfully sneaked in, but they never thought they would be immediately surrounded and intercepted. In desperation, the two sides fought together.

For a while, the shadows of swords and guns flashed.

Breaking into the military camp by force was like a moth flying into a flame. The three people soon showed their decline, bitter in their hearts, and desperate.

At this moment, Li Changxiao, who was in the shadows, flashed a faint blue color in his eyes.

He saw his little finger lightly hooked.

That force was transmitted quickly in the invisible threads in the air.

In just a moment, all the alien legions had a thin blood mark on their necks.

The hundreds of alien soldiers present were almost wiped out.

The three people were shocked, obviously not expecting this scene. They realized that someone was secretly attacking them, so they bowed to the air. The situation was urgent, and they hurriedly left with the corpses.

Li Changxiao looked at the backs of the three people, thinking about it. It seems that there is an undercurrent in the Ninth City, and it has reached the most intense moment.

Li Changxiao's eyes were leisurely, scanning the entire city, and his eyes became meaningful. It was not just him who was paying attention to this place.

He thought about it and followed.

But the three people carried the corpse out of the city, buried the robbed corpse in the wilderness, and erected a simple tombstone.

Li Changxiao eavesdropped on the side and learned the whole story. It turned out that this group of people were originally the city guards of the Ninth City. They were all powerful human warriors who maintained the law and order of the Ninth City.

Some time ago, they were falsely accused of treason, so they had no choice but to defect. Today, they were surrounded and suppressed. Almost all the soldiers died. Even the former general was not only killed, but his body was taken back and planned to be used as food.

The three of them were lucky enough to escape. They couldn't bear to see the people they respected end up like this, so they thought that at least they shouldn't let the general's body be insulted like this, so there was this scene of robbing the body.

...

When Li Changxiao returned to the Ninth City, he found that the situation in the city had changed. A large number of city guards went out at night and searched door to door.

It turned out that it was the Lord of the Ninth City, Xia, who was furious after knowing that the military camp was attacked and directly ordered that the murderer must be arrested at all costs.

The key search targets were every household of the human race and the rooms of the inn.

However, Li Changxiao saw that these alien soldiers arrested people regardless of age, weakness, women and children, and arrested all human beings.

In these few minutes.

Thousands of human beings were captured. They had just woken up from their sleep and were pushed and gathered in the square without even figuring out what had happened.

Many aliens also got up to watch the excitement.

This tossing lasted all night. When the guards found the Shechang Inn where Li Changxiao was, it was already daytime.

Li Changxiao, the shopkeeper... many customers in the rooms were all led to the square by alien soldiers with knives on their necks.

When they just walked out of the inn, several snake waiters in the inn looked at them with grim eyes, and the gloating in their eyes was not concealed at all.

Hundreds of thousands of people had gathered in the square. Almost all the human races in the Ninth City were brought here. Seeing this scene, the shopkeeper was stunned. He didn't expect to encounter such a scene.

He trembled for a while. Seeing that they were all human races, and thinking of what happened before, a trace of uneasiness flashed in his eyes.

The square was very large, but it was still very crowded to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people. Even some young children needed to be lifted by adults over their heads to ensure that they were safe.

In front of the square, there was a high platform as high as tens of meters.

A figure walked slowly towards the high platform through the white jade stairs.

It was a man with a slender face, giving people a feminine feeling.

This person was Xia Shexie, the lord of the Ninth City. He had the blood of both the snake and scorpion people, and was also the youngest lord in history.

"Lord Xia, why did you call us here in the middle of the night?"

"Yes, I still have to go home to grind tofu."

...

In the crowd, noisy voices gradually sounded.

"Go back?" Xia Shexie's mouth curled up slightly.

He had no intention of letting them go back.

The accumulation of generations, for... isn't it just for today? Now the time is ripe.

Xia Shexie spoke, his voice was sharp, and said: "I am really sorry for summoning you so early in the morning."

"It's just... I am also very helpless. The military camp was attacked by thieves last night. I had no choice but to do this for the stability of the city."

"According to the soldiers guarding the city, the attackers are human race, so I took this bad idea to gather all the human race. In addition, I also took this opportunity to talk to everyone from the heart."

Xia Shexie put his hands behind his back and walked slowly on the high platform, and said: "I have been elected as the city lord for more than ten years. During my tenure, I have worked diligently and devoted my whole heart to the ninth city. I believe everyone can see this."

"However, in my fourth year as the city lord, I looked at various files from the past and couldn't help but wonder what the reason was. Even if I devoted myself wholeheartedly, various situations would always occur."

"I thought about it for a long time, and finally came up with an answer, which is... you."

Xia Snake pointed at the human race below.

"us?"

Everyone in the human race is puzzled. How come they have become a source of uneasiness in the Ninth City despite their hard work?

"That's right, it's you." Xia Shexie waved her hand and raised her voice a little louder, with a hint of a clear picture, "Throughout the hundreds of years of history of the Ninth City, every heinous case is Caused by humans.”

"And I, the snake-people and scorpion-people, have been living in the Ninth City since ancient times. Our ancestors kindly took you in and gave you equal status and equal power, but they didn't want... you human race to be such a despicable race. "

The words fell.

The faces of the hundreds of thousands of people in the square suddenly changed, and their hearts became uneasy.

One person stood up and cursed: "Fuck you, your mother's bullshit, it's obviously me, the human race, who took you in!"

“Oh?”

"Anyone from the Snake Clan can span several generations of your human race. What evidence do you have to prove that the Ninth City belongs to your human ancestors?"

Xia Snake's green vertical eyes looked at the people below with a cold air.
