Chapter 828: Words of Collusion
Yunyouzi and Zhang Hui were shocked when they heard this and asked for details.
The soldier panted and said:
"This is what happened..."
"Lord Li led a team to search an abandoned temple outside the city today. It is said that strange things have happened there recently."
"Who knew that as soon as we got there, we encountered a group of people in black robes suddenly appearing."
"Those people all had hideous faces and held strange magic weapons. They attacked us fiercely without saying a word."
"We were caught off guard and suffered heavy casualties..."
"Lord Li saw that the situation was not good and personally took action to fight."
"He was very powerful and managed to hold on for a while."
"But those black-robed people seemed They rushed forward one after another without fear of life or death. "
"Lord Li gradually lost his strength and was finally hit by a black light and fell in a pool of blood..."
"We tried our best to protect Lord Li and retreat, but those black-robed men chased him relentlessly. "
"Fortunately, we met patrolling state soldiers halfway and barely escaped... But Lord Li was too seriously injured and his life or death is uncertain..."
"According to the governor of this place, the three of them have great magical powers and extraordinary means. "
"If you are willing to help, Lord Li may still be saved..."
After hearing this, Yunyouzi and Zhang Hui's faces suddenly became solemn.
This sudden change undoubtedly made the situation more confusing.
Zhang Hui whispered:
"It seems that these black-robed men are coming for Li Chengyuan."
"But... why are they doing this?"
"Are they worried that Li Chengyuan will find out something he shouldn't?"
Yun Youzi pondered for a moment and said slowly:
"I'm afraid it's not that simple..."
"Although Li Chengyuan is here to investigate, he must have his own purpose."
"These black-robed men are attacking the court officials in such a high-profile manner, and they are obviously fearless. There must be a bigger conspiracy behind it..."
As he said this, he looked at the still unconscious Li Yang, and then said:
"In short... the most urgent task now is to save Li Chengyuan's life first."
"If he has any mishap, our situation will be even more troublesome."
Zhang Hui nodded:
"What the senior said is right, we are now..."
Yun Youzi thought for a while and said:
"You go and see Li Chengyuan's situation first. You have taught at Dulong before, see if you can help."
"I will stay here to take care of Li Yang and think about what to do next."
Zhang Hui responded and immediately set off for the posthouse.
Yun Youzi stayed to check on Li Yang's situation and think about the next countermeasures.
Not long after, Zhang Hui hurried back, his face even more solemn:
"The situation is not good, Li Chengyuan is seriously injured, and the doctors in the state are helpless."
"I have tried some methods of the Poison Dragon Cult, but they are basically useless."
"Li Chengyuan's current situation is similar to chaos erosion."
"And..."
He lowered his voice:
"I heard some accompanying officials privately discussing that Li Chengyuan's trip was actually under the secret order of the prince."
"Now that he is injured, there may be a storm in the court."
Hearing this, Yunyouzi frowned:
"Sure enough...It seems that this chess game is bigger than we thought."
Just then, Li Yang suddenly groaned and slowly opened his eyes.
"Li Yang, are you awake?"
Seeing this, Zhang Hui hurriedly said in surprise.
Li Yang slowly sat up and looked around in a daze:
"What's going on with me?"
Yunyouzi briefly told him what had just happened.
After listening to this, Li Yang sighed slightly:
"I didn't expect it to turn out like this in the end..."
Yunyouzi waved his hand:
"No one can predict this at this time, but the scene you just saw in that strange space may be very helpful for our next action."
Li Yang nodded, then thought for a while and carefully recounted what he had just seen and heard.
After listening to this, Yunyouzi said thoughtfully:
"I have had similar conjectures before."
"The black palace and the vortex in the center are probably the source of the power of chaos."
"And the [Taiyuan Guiyi, Chaos Rebirth] mentioned by those black-robed people must be their ultimate goal."
Zhang Hui interrupted:
"So those guys want to use the power of chaos to subvert the existing order?"
Yunyouzi nodded: "Very likely..."
"And "Taiyuan Xuanzhang" is probably the key to achieving this goal."
Li Yang frowned and said:
"What role does Zhao Ming play in it? Could he also..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden noise outside.
The three stood up vigilantly, and saw a team of soldiers rushing in, led by Li Chengyuan's confidant who had met yesterday.
The man glanced at the three people coldly and said in a deep voice:
"On the orders of Lord Li, please come with us."
Yunyouzi frowned slightly and asked:
"What instructions does Lord Li have?"
The man looked serious and said:
"Lord Li was attacked late at night, but you three were sitting at home..."
"There must be something strange about this. Please come with us and explain to Lord Li in person."
This is too far-fetched...
The three of them looked at each other and knew that it was not appropriate to start a conflict at this time, so they had no choice but to follow the group of soldiers to the post house.
When I arrived at Li Chengyuan's room, I saw him lying on the couch with a pale face, surrounded by doctors and guards.
Seeing the three people coming in, Li Chengyuan forced himself to sit up and asked straight to the point:
"Where were the three of you when I was attacked last night?"
Yun Youzi cupped his hands and replied:
"Sir, I have been resting at the hotel and don't know what happened outside."
"If I had known that you were in danger, I would have risked my life to help you."
Li Chengyuan smiled and asked:
"Yeah?"
"In that case...when I was attacked last night, why were there strange noises and black mist filling your residence?"
When the three of them heard this, they immediately looked at each other.
This Li Chengyuan actually sent someone to monitor them...
And it is obvious that the vision caused by Li Yang has been noticed by others.
Seeing that the three of them were silent for a while, Li Chengyuan seemed to have noticed something.
He immediately frowned and shouted sternly:
"Answer me honestly, who are you?"
"What's the purpose of trespassing into our Daxia territory?"
"What do those men in black robes have to do with you?"
Yun Youzi was about to speak, but Li Yang suddenly took a step forward and said in a deep voice:
"Okay... To be honest, I do have some connections with those men in black robes."
"However, our position is completely different from theirs."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room was shocked.
Yun Youzi and Zhang Hui were stunned for a moment, thinking that Li Yang didn't understand his current position.
Now that they say something like this in public, doesn't it mean that they are admitting that they have colluded with those evil people?
But unexpectedly, Li Chengyuan on the opposite side was not in a hurry to recruit people to arrest him.
Instead, he slowly narrowed his eyes:
"Oh? I'd like to hear the details."
