"What happened to the phoenix?" The one who spoke was the anxious Situ Qingtian. Looking at his wife's pretty face, he had a green and black expression. As his husband, he was very worried, but he was helpless. He wished that he could suffer in her place.

"Sigh!" Murong Badao shook his head. He didn't know how to start. To be more precise, he didn't know what was going on. It looked like he was poisoned, but he couldn't tell.

Murong Badao circulated his zhen qi into his daughter's body, he found that her meridians were severely blocked by a black substance. If she was poisoned, her meridians would not be blocked like this, and her meridians would become extremely fragile. Just when Murong Badao wanted to increase the flow of his zhen qi to open up the blocked meridians, she actually found signs of the meridians breaking, which scared Murong Badao so much that he immediately stopped his zhen qi output.

Then, Murong Badao started to check the attachment of his daughter. Inside, there was a black-grey gas that filled the entire chest and was still spreading to the four limbs. This gas had a characteristic, it was especially thick and it was increasing the thickness, as if it was about to turn from gas to liquid.

Murong Badao had traveled to the north for many years, but it was the first time he encountered such a situation. He was suddenly at a loss for what to do, but he could only watch his daughter die like this.

Right now, the most important thing for him to do was to quickly figure out what exactly happened to Murong Fenghuang!

Long'er, quickly arrange some people to head back to the Murong Family. Also, notify them to bring back all the famous doctors in a hundred mile radius. Murong Badao ordered his son nervously.

"Yes, father!" Murong Kuanglong immediately turned around and walked out. He wanted to hurry up and make arrangements, but when he saw that his father's face was about to drip water, he had a bad feeling and asked himself several times, "Is my sister dying?" But he subconsciously didn't want to admit this result.

He looked at his sister who was unconscious on the ground. Murong Kuanglong couldn't move his feet at this moment, but he still had to walk out. He wanted to fight for a chance for his sister's survival.

Murong Kuanglong turned around resolutely and left. He tried his best to hold back his tears. Even if it was a life for a life, he would still save his sister.

"Big brother, can you pick a star for me?"

"Uh, we should wait for brother to grow up. He's not tall enough right now!"

"Big brother, big brother, the fish in the pond drowned?"

"Err, first wipe off the fish at the corner of your mouth. Don't let mother find out later, those are her favorite fish. "Also, if we change the reason next time, if the fish can drown, even the sows can climb trees!"

"Big brother, a sow can actually climb a tree!"

"... Poor sow! "

Murong Kuanglong thought about the scenes of him and his sister from a young age. With so many memories, how could he forget them?

A person's memories would always be unintentionally forgotten. It wasn't because they really couldn't remember, but because they didn't want to casually remember.

"Father-in-law, I …" Situ Qingtian started to choke as soon as he opened his mouth, "Men have tears but do not cry easily because they are not sad."

Situ Qingtian could not continue. However, when he looked at Murong Badao's incomparably firm eyes, he clearly told his father-in-law, 'Where the phoenix comes from, it will support the heavens'.

"En, I know you are worried, but I will bring you with me to the Murong Family!" Murong Badao understood Situ Qingtian's mood very well. At the same time, he was very pleased. His son-in-law was not bad and matched his temper.

Two flowers, one for each watch.

The Misty Cloud Mountain was surrounded by clouds and mist all year round. Looking at the mountain from afar was ethereal and mysterious. The depths of the mountain looked like it was riding on clouds and mist, which gave it a unique feeling.

It was located in the middle of Honglong Empire and a thousand miles south of the mountain was the Honglong Empire's imperial capital. There were no more dangers in between the two mountains and even though Misty Cloud Mountain was a mountain, it was also the last barrier of the imperial city.

There was a city built in the mountains. Rather than calling it a city, it was more appropriate to call it a standard military fortress. The city was tall and thick, and there were city guards everywhere. Their armor was shiny, their weapons were sharp, and their movements were uniform. From this, it could be seen that this city defense unit was an elite division.

A group of people approached from afar, numbering about a thousand. They were equipped with the standard Imperial Light Cavalry equipment. The sound of the horses' hooves was somewhat disorderly. Looking at the slightly exhausted faces of the cavalrymen, it was even more obvious that this cavalryman had just returned after a long journey.

There was a person in the team who was out of place. He was dressed in black and had a black cloth over his face. However, his clothes were tattered and the blood on the black cloth had congealed into a hard sheet.

This person had been unconscious all this time. He had been tied up by the cavalry and brought back to the stronghold. Who was this person?

The huge city gates of the stronghold were opened, and the cavalrymen slightly increased their speed as they quickly passed through. As soon as they entered the city, a man dressed in the attire of a general came up to them together with a few deputy generals and a man with a veil over his face.

"General Zhao, thank you for all the hard work!" The man who looked like a general said.

"General Li, your subordinate did not work hard, so this is how it should be!" General Zhao opened his mouth and spoke humbly, his words clear at a glance.

"Where is he? Have you brought them all back? " General Li asked.

"This subordinate is ashamed. I only received one person, and the other ten disappeared without a trace. The others also haven't seen them, so they can't be silenced." General Zhao felt a little ashamed. His mission this time was only to take care of the eleven of them, while everyone else had to silence them.

But contrary to their expectations, not only did they not meet the eleven people they should have sent out, they even encountered tens of thousands of people to surround and intercept them. Fortunately, they had observed the terrain beforehand and hid in a col.

"One person? How is this possible? What happened? " This time, the person who spoke was not General Li, but the person with a veil covering his face.

"This …" General Zhao didn't know this person, of course he didn't dare to speak carelessly.

"Feel free to speak!" General Li said.

Yes, your subordinate is also not very familiar with the details, we waited at the location we were supposed to meet up for an entire day, and in the evening, we discovered a man stumbling and running over, his injuries were very serious, and he fainted before we could even ask him about it, and just as we were about to leave, the scouts noticed a large number of people approaching, and not only are there tens of thousands of scouts, we also do not dare to be slow, and luckily, your subordinate found a cave with excellent concealment, and barely managed to escape the tens of thousands of people's search. General Zhao recounted the events in a concise manner, showing the true colors of a soldier.

"Tens of thousands?" Was it the army? How would they be able to deploy troops in time? "Even if we get the news, we won't be able to get there immediately?" This time it was General Li who spoke. He knew that although the army was an efficient army, due to the constraints of time and distance, it was impossible for them to arrive at the first moment, and their departure was announced a few days ago. But was that possible? Perhaps a few days ago, the other party did not even know that such an assassination would occur.

"Not all of them are in the army, but there are over a thousand experts in the family. However, the majority of them are in the cavalry, and judging from their attire, they should be from the City Defense Army and the elite 'Scarlet Cavalry' of the Murong Family." General Zhao answered.

"It's really hard to understand. Could it be that the Situ Family and the Murong Family already knew of our master's movements, and set up a trap for us to jump into?" General Li whispered to masked man beside him.

"No, but I'm not sure about the specifics either. I'll have to wait for the nether wolf to wake up before I can find out." masked man said.

He was well aware of the enemy's strength and numbers, so he suddenly launched a fierce attack. Even if the killers will suffer heavy casualties, he shouldn't fail, not to mention that he also sent eleven of his underworld guards to support them. Against those one hundred guards, he could probably finish them all in a single move.

masked man was not only wondering about this. What he was more worried about was the mission assigned by his master. If he did not complete the mission within the organization, he would definitely be punished by a bandit and bitten by ten thousand bugs. Should he send another group of people? Is there still time?

"It's better if we hurry up and save him. Perhaps the situation isn't that bad, but even if we lose ten Dark Guards, I'm afraid it won't be easy to report this to the higher ups!" General Li saw the bitterness in masked man's heart and comforted him.

"I guess that's the only way!" masked man nodded his stiff head. This was the worst mission he had ever performed.

"Disband! Rest! Get a doctor to treat his wounds!" General Li ordered.

"Shua!" After the neat military salute, the Cavalry went to the side to rest. The stretcher beside them went up and lifted up the Black Cloaked Chieftain who was called nether wolf to treat her.

"I will send people to the Murong Family to gather information!" General Li cupped his hands towards masked man and left to make the arrangements.

A thousand miles away in the imperial capital, in a magnificent palace.

"Do you know how things are going? It's been so long, but there's still been no news! This King is truly in a hurry. " The prince had his hands behind his back as he impatiently paced back and forth. Obviously, he was extremely nervous at the moment.

"My lord, please calm down. This is an order from the higher ups, and this old servant has heard that the higher ups attach great importance to it. In addition, they have assigned eleven Underworld Guards, and one of them is an expert at the squad leader level!" An old man in butler garb comforted them from the side.

"Oh? He actually sent a squadron leader level expert? He had already reached the Martial Ancestor Realm! "Haha, it seems like there's no mistake this time!" The prince laughed heartily, as if everything was under control.

"It's a pity that we can't have the fruits of their labour for myself. If I had those things, what would I have to fear from them? "Hmph. However, I can borrow their power to help me obtain that item faster." His Royal Highness paused for a moment before he began to ponder over the issue of victory.

"Your highness, I will definitely fulfill your wish!" The old butler said.

"Haha, come, let's play a game and wait for the news!" Upon hearing the orders from the higher ups, his slightly agitated mood disappeared and his amiable smile returned.

Not clear people will feel kind and friendly, clear people know that it is the standard smile hidden knife.
