Chapter 99: The Way of Incense
Rejecting Yu Zhen's proposal to accompany him, Su Yan rushed towards the Li family's residence in Zhaojun at "the fastest speed".
During this period, new changes occurred in Luoyang. The previously hidden Xinyumen, Jile Cave, the First Martial Arts Gang, and the Li family's children began to kill indiscriminately after receiving the signal. Those who were responsible for patrolling and maintaining order in the city
Imperial manpower.
Moreover, they used strange "demon magic" to hide their figures. Unless they are completely dead, their figures cannot be seen, their breath cannot be sensed, and their traces cannot be observed.
This initially caused a lot of casualties to the Jinyi Guards, Six Doors, and Plum Blossom Guards.
Su Yan was not attacked on the way to the Li family's residence, probably because many people from the enemy had seen his portrait and avoided him when they saw him passing by alone.
Of course, Su Yan's pace was also leisurely, giving them a chance to see his face clearly. Otherwise, if a ray of light or sword light passed by, they would definitely chop it down without saying a word.
It's not that Su Yan doesn't want to be faster, but because of his current status, it's okay if he doesn't take action, and when he takes action, he must be in line with the demeanor of an expert.
In other words, he is either so fast that others don't react at all, or he gives people a calm and composed feeling.
As for before, when Su Yan was looking for Zhao Yan'er, although he was anxious, he had to keep an eye on all directions and listen to all directions, so naturally he couldn't go any faster.
I have to say that it is quite tiring to create a concave character. Of course, if you can really concave it successfully, you can bring about the current effect:
Su Yan walked all the way to the location of Zhaojun Li's mansion, but no one dared to stop him. Even if he encountered a fighting group on the way, both sides would temporarily retreat and make way for them.
When Su Yan arrived here, the empress' side had already urgently figured out a way to deal with "invisibility".
Qilonghuang asked several local gods in Luoyang to take action from a distance, spreading the power of incense and wishing all over the city, and then made the enemies who were shrouded in black energy spells act.
The enemy's method is very strange. It seems to be made by collecting negative emotions from humanity. Therefore, even with the power of the Shendu Formation, it is impossible to detect them, let alone let them show up.
Shinto is different, because it is the power of another system, transformed from faith, so the power of incense can make these enemies "full of sins and debts" live.
In this way, the situation was worthy of being brought back by the court.
There was a chaotic battle in the city, but the Li Mansion was temporarily quiet. The place had been razed to the ground by the previous fighting, and the appearance of the mansion could not be seen at all.
When Su Yan arrived, he saw this scene:
Two groups of people stood on the north and south sides, facing each other. Between them, there was a huge golden sword-shaped light pillar connecting the sky and the ground.
It pierced the Luoyang Shendu formation, and the blade penetrated into the earth, full of deterrence, forcibly suspending the previous battle and separating the two sides.
On the south side, Shen Wushang, Ji Zhenggang, and Xu Ge led three royal masters, clustering in front of the empress in a defensive posture.
Behind Qilonghuang, there are two old men in purple clothes, one on the left and one on the right.
After that, there were 108 elite soldiers who formed a battle formation. The rest of the troops had been dispersed throughout the city and were annihilating the rebels.
Naturally, the people from the Buddhist sect had already arrived and were on the same side as the royal family. Standing at the front of the team were none other than the Tianmu Divine Monk and the Master of Mingyun Zhai.
Since this was not a welcoming ceremony, they naturally did not make a big fanfare, not to mention that the incident happened suddenly and most of the personnel were at the White Horse Temple outside the city.
Therefore, there were less than a hundred Buddhist disciples present at this time, mainly the group brought in by Tianmu beforehand, who could join forces to arrange Buddhist formations at any time.
On the north side, where the Zhao Mansion was originally located, a middle-aged man with a pale face, blood at the corner of his mouth, and wearing a dragon robe was sitting on a lonely dragon chair.
On his left and right sides, two people stood respectively.
On the left are a enchanting woman in green; and an old man in black with a hooked nose and a sinister face.
On the right are a bald man wearing black armor and a muscular body; and a middle-aged man with a crown of gold and a slightly nervous expression.
Presumably the one on the dragon throne is Qili Ji. Apart from these four people, there are no more followers behind him. It looks a bit bleak.
However, in front of Qiliji, there was another person standing with his hands behind his back, facing the mountains and mountains. It was he who forcibly halted the previously smooth battle.
This is a tall, middle-aged man wearing a bright yellow robe with a four-clawed golden dragon embroidered on it.
He has a short beard under his chin, his face is majestic and dignified, and his eyes are bright and full of pressure. You can tell at a glance that he is a great person in the world.
Compared with this man, even though his appearance and figure are similar, and even his clothes are similar, it has to be said that Qili Ji pales in comparison, especially in terms of temperament and demeanor, and is completely incomparable to this "mysterious man" .
Su Yan, who walked slowly and slowly, was naturally noticed by everyone present. Even the two parties who had been talking to each other temporarily stopped after seeing Su Yan's figure.
Qilonghuang secretly sent a message to Su Yan and introduced the opponent's "lineup".
The leader was naturally the emperor's uncle Qi Yanwu who refused to see anyone due to illness. The situation in Qilonghuang was once good and when he was about to capture the former crown prince, the emperor's uncle descended from the sky and forcibly stopped the war.
As for the people around Qiliji, the woman is an elder from the Xinyu Sect; the old man is an elder from the Paradise Cave.
The bald man is the leader of the first martial arts gang, and the last one is naturally Li Chengen, the head of the Li family.
In addition, Ming Yun also secretly transmitted a message to Su Yan, focusing on introducing the two cultivators of the evil sect. It is worth mentioning that they only have the sixth realm of cultivation.
It seems that these two sects are very skilled. Although they have given some help, they have not made heavy bets; unlike Buddhism, they really only think about their ancestors.
In other words, if there is a fight, both Tianmu Divine Monk and Mingyun can easily deal with these two monks.
The only question is, should Su Yan give an order to let Buddhism intervene in this matter? Let’s take a trip into this muddy water.
At least so far, although Buddhism brought people to support the scene, they did not take action from beginning to end, just watching.
Seeing this, Su Yan was puzzled by one thing. Why didn't he see any of the reinforcements from the noble family?
Leaving aside the others, where are the manpower from the Qinghe Cui family and the Iron-Blooded County Prince? They can’t come slower than him, right??
In fact, the doors of major aristocratic families have long been blocked.
It has to be said that although Qilonghuang's order was first issued, there were many individuals in the family who were procrastinating.
However, after the Confucian sect took action, and the Empress summoned the blessing of human luck, and the situation in the city reversed, their actions immediately became very agile, for fear that the reinforcements would be delayed, and they would be liquidated by the Empress later.
