Chapter 423 Cannon Fodder(2/2)
Who would have thought that Xu Ting, who has always been gentle and elegant, is actually a member of the Demon Cult?
This Dragon Temple is only three or four miles away from the imperial palace, and it is actually a stronghold of the demon sect that has disappeared for more than 20 years!
Fan Xiaodao reached out and wrote the names of Xu Ting and Ghost King on the tree.
Zhao Xing looked solemn.
Although he didn't know the Ghost King, he knew Xu Ting, and among the three people present, Yin Shi and the Ghost King were all top masters in the world.
The two of them held their breath and concentrated their energy, so as not to be sensed by the other party.
The hidden messenger came to the pile of flames and muttered a series of spells in a low voice. It must be in a foreign language and the two of them could not understand it. After finishing the chant, he took out a dagger and cut his palm, and blood dripped into the fire.
In the midst of it, the flame instantly rose more than three feet high, illuminating the entire courtyard.
Fortunately, there are tall walls around it.
Otherwise, it will be easy for people to notice something is wrong.
The envoy lowered his voice and whispered: "The holy fire will not be extinguished, and the divine way will be completed!"
Everyone said in unison: "The holy fire will never be extinguished, and the divine way will be completed!"
However, it sounds very awkward to have so many people shouting slogans in low voices at the same time.
After another kneel and ceremony, the envoy said, "Bring the wine and give it to the thirty strong men to practice it!"
Everyone took a bowl of wine.
The hidden envoy whispered, "Kill the emperor and become a hegemon!"
Everyone whispered in unison: "Kill the emperor and become a hegemon!"
Drink it all in one gulp!
The hidden envoy said again: "Brothers, sleep in the back hall tonight. Tomorrow, the Dog Emperor will go to the Temple of Heaven to offer sacrifices to heaven. We will send him directly to the West. You will ambush among the worshipers. When the time comes, listen to Liu
The Hall Master will act according to his command! Tomorrow night, I will be here to serve you a celebratory drink!"
Everyone went to the apse to rest.
There were only about ten people left in the courtyard, and the envoy said again, "Next batch!" After that, he and the ghost king, Xu Ting, turned around and returned to the main hall.
Not long after, another thirty masked men in black came, dressed similarly to the previous group, standing in three rows in the courtyard. Using a familiar operation, the messenger led two more people out, first leading the low-level men.
He recited sutras and mantras loudly, lit a flame with blood, and then toasted.
The hidden envoy said again: "Brothers, sleep in the left hall tonight. Tomorrow, the Dog Emperor will go to the Temple of Heaven to offer sacrifices to heaven. We will send him directly to the West Heaven. You will ambush among the worshipers. When the time comes, listen to Li
The Hall Master will act according to his command! Tomorrow night, I will be here to serve you a celebratory drink!"
Everyone left again.
"next batch!"
Another group of people came and went through the process again according to the previous process.
Both of them were dumbfounded.
In order to confuse his opponents, the emperor prepared three routes for traveling. Unexpectedly, the Demon Cult people were even more ruthless, so they simply prepared three groups of people!
Only children do multiple-choice questions. We are all adults. Let’s guess. What’s the point? Just do it all!
However, this price is a bit too high!
These three batches of ninety demon sect disciples are ordinary warriors. Although they are large in number, their martial arts attainments have not yet entered the palace. They are not considered masters at all. Let alone assassinating the emperor, they may have been stabbed by the imperial army before they got close.
Hacked to death.
Needless to say, Fan Xiaodao also understood.
The meaning of their existence is not to assassinate, but to create chaos.
In other words, in this action against the emperor, they can only be regarded as spoilers at best.
Only by creating chaos can you fish in troubled waters.
Fan Xiaodao thought of two words.
Chapter completed!
