Chapter 190 I'll send you on your way right now
"Zhu Meng, since you have the courage to die for the people of Songcheng, I will temporarily remember your bullying of my Jiang family. Once you survive, I will have an old man give you a good talking to."
A loud voice came from the West City Fortress, and then several figures flew out of the fortress.
The man in the lead was a military mage, whose level was similar to Yun Feng's, both being military commanders. Behind him were several other military mages, each of whom exuded an aura of at least a high-level, fully-cultivated cultivator.
"Jiang Haoshuo, aren't you supposed to be in the Southern Guard District?" Commander Yunfeng said, looking at the leading man who was flying over.
Jiang Haoshuo glanced at Zhu Meng and said, "Didn't we find out that my nephew was in Songcheng? The old man wanted to see him, so he sent me to pick him up. Who knew that as soon as I got here, I heard that someone had seriously injured my nephew."
Zhu Meng felt somewhat guilty under Jiang Haoshuo's gaze, and the thought of the Jiang family patriarch's prestige in Xingcheng made her heart pound.
The most troublesome family in China is the Jiang family of Xingcheng. They are the kind of family that will fight fire with fire if the younger generation gets hurt. To put it nicely, they are united; to put it bluntly, they are fiercely protective of their own. If any of their descendants suffer a loss outside, they will definitely seek revenge. Apart from the incident that happened in Xingcheng back then, anyone who has ever injured a member of the Jiang family after causing trouble will suffer the consequences.
Like the Li family last time, they suffered heavy losses. As a result, the Mage Association, the Inquisition, and other forces are quite troubled by the Jiang family of Xingcheng. Fortunately, the Jiang family does not like to cause trouble, otherwise they would have been eliminated by the joint efforts of various forces long ago.
"Ahem, let's think of a way to deal with the Silver Dome Lord before we talk about anything else," Zhu Meng said after coughing.
Jiang Haoshuo then turned his attention to the Silver Sky Lord. The number of super-level mages present, including himself, was less than the number on the palm of one hand. It was wishful thinking for them to kill the monarch-level Silver Sky Lord. They could only do their best to buy enough time for the people behind the West City Fortress to evacuate.
······
In the forest far from the Ninth Watchtower, Mo Fan and Lingling sat quietly under a large tree, waiting for Zhang Xiaohou and Wang Xiaojun to return. They hadn't been at the West City Fortress for long before Leng Qing assigned them to come here to meet Zhang Xiaohou.
"Lingling, have you located Zhang Xiaohou's position using his phone?" Mo Fan asked.
Lingling fiddled with the notebook on her calf. A red dot was slowly moving towards the Ninth Watchtower, but there were also a dozen or so gray dots on the screen, representing nearby White Demon Eagles. Lingling looked at the notebook and said, "We've located them, but the situation isn't looking good. Zhang Xiaohou and the others have been targeted by a squad of White Demon Eagles."
"Where are they? I'll come over and meet them right away," Mo Fan said, instantly standing up.
"They were about three kilometers from the watchtower, and were probably spotted by the patrolling White Eagles on their way back."
As Mo Fan spoke, he quickly connected to the star track. Moon-white starlight lit up, and a spatial rift appeared in front of Mo Fan. Then, the Swift Star Wolf excitedly darted out of the rift. Mo Fan flipped over and jumped onto the Swift Star Wolf, pulling Lingling up with him. After the two were seated, Mo Fan patted the Swift Star Wolf's head to indicate that they could set off.
In the main quarantine area of Songcheng, Luo Mian returned to evacuate patients before the major battle at Xicheng Fortress. In the center of the quarantine area, Luo Mian held up a megaphone and shouted: "Everyone, the White Demon Eagle is currently launching a full-scale attack on Xicheng Fortress. I'm here to escort you all to your evacuation."
"Thank you. Congressman Luo is a truly good official for not forgetting us even under these circumstances."
"Yes, if Councilor Luo hadn't told me that a cure for the plague had been found, I probably wouldn't have made it."
The countless words of praise for Luo Mian in the quarantine zone made him feel a little smug. Just as Luo Mian was about to say a few more words, a subordinate ran up to him and whispered something. A chrysanthemum-like smile instantly appeared on his old face.
The subordinate wasn't referring to anyone else but Zhang Xiaohou and the others. He also discovered that Yinghongcao had been placed in the Ninth Watchtower by Litian and his group. Once he seized Yinghongcao, he could maintain his position as a councilor and perhaps even seize the opportunity to compete for the chairmanship.
He then headed towards the Ninth Watchtower under the guidance of his men. When he arrived at the Ninth Watchtower, he happened to run into Mo Fan, Zhang Xiaohou, and others who were returning. Luo Mian stepped forward, looked at Mo Fan and the others, and said with a smile, "You did a great job. Hand over the Eagle Red Grass to me."
"To hand over to you, the culprit who caused Songcheng's crisis? You must be dreaming," Zhang Xiaohou said.
Jiang Han and Mo Fan had already told him that this councilor named Luo Mian was the culprit behind the plague in Songcheng and the attack on the city by the White Demon Eagle. If it weren't for him, Songcheng wouldn't have suffered this calamity. He hated Luo Mian and Zhang Xiaohou to the core.
A judge stepped out from behind Luo Mian, pointed at Zhang Xiaohou, and said, "Kid, don't be stubborn and end up being punished."
After saying that, the judge quickly constructed a fire star map and attacked Zhang Xiaohou. Seeing the judge make a move, Mo Fan also quickly constructed a lightning star map. Before the judge could throw a punch at Zhang Xiaohou, he raised his right hand high. Thunderclouds quickly gathered above the judge's head. As Mo Fan's right hand fell, several bolts of lightning as thick as bowls descended from the sky and struck Luo Mian and the others.
Seeing that Mo Fan, Zhang Xiaohou and the others did not know what was good for them, Luo Mian's face darkened, and he said coldly, "I'll give you one last chance. Hand over the space bracelets that store the Eagle Red Grass and I will let bygones be bygones. I can even guarantee your smooth careers in the future. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"I forgot to tell you, my minor is in curses. I bet none of you have ever experienced being cursed. Come to think of it, I haven't used curses to kill anyone since I became a councilor. Please don't force me to kill anyone."
At this moment, Luo Mian was no longer the kind and approachable person he was when he visited patients in the isolation area. He had become a demon shrouded in darkness and death. The cold aura emanating from him made Mo Fan, Zhang Xiaohou and others tremble. Lingling was so frightened that her face turned pale.
The little girl is more mature than other girls her age, but she is still afraid when her life is threatened.
"Force you to kill someone? I don't need to force you, I'll send you on your way right now!!"
A voice suddenly came from the sky. Before Mo Fan and Zhang Xiaohou could react, a gray-purple lightning bolt mixed with a destructive aura shot towards Luo Mian and the others. Sensing the danger, Luo Mian's body quickly turned into a black shadow and merged into the ground. However, his subordinates were not so lucky. They were either pierced through the body by the silent lightning or had their arms pierced through.
After Luo Mian regained his human form, he saw a huge body with a bluish-black luster in the clouds above. Jiang Han and Tang Yue were standing on the head of the Xuan Snake. Tang Yue pointed at a man with a broken arm below and said angrily, "Da Sheng, I never thought you were the traitor in the clan. The clan spent resources to raise you, why did you still betray the clan?"
"Why betray the family? For money, power, and women, of course," Dasheng said, clutching his severed arm.
"You...you'll have to face the family's punishment," Tang Yue said.
When she was transferring the Xuan Snake, she suspected that there was a traitor in the family, but she never thought that the traitor would be the highly valued Da Sheng. If he was not highly valued, he would not be qualified to take on the role of guarding the island in the middle of the lake. But now that things have come to this, Tang Yue has nothing more to say to him.
"Damn it, Jiang Han, you finally arrived! If you had been any later, you would have been collecting my and Monkey's corpses." Mo Fan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Jiang Han arrive in time from the sky. He was originally planning how to run away. He had the Mind-Concentrating Magic Artifact given to him by Dean Xiao, which could block the curse-type attack. However, Zhang Xiaohou, Wang Xiaojun, and Lingling, who had not awakened magic, would definitely be severely injured or even killed by Luo Mian's curse magic.
