C501 Primal Chaos Needle
The field fell into silence once again, and almost everyone was analyzing the weight of the news and the impact it would have on the future.
It could be said that this piece of news seemed to have existed for a very long time. Although it involved the royal family, it didn't seem to have much to do with it. Because Jianwen Emperor hadn't died, there had always been rumors about him. Even if it was true today, it didn't matter.
However, if one were to look at this problem alone, it could only be said that this person was lacking in skill.
In this era, to seek fame and wealth, only the founding of a country or chaotic times was the fastest. Of course, the first condition was that you had to have the corresponding ability.
This time, many people also understood why Lee Hongji was able to quickly rise to fame as if he had suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Although he was defeated now, who dared to say that he would not make a comeback as quickly as he did in the past? Should they bet their future and their lives on him?
From the moment Nangong Nayue mentioned Jianwen Emperor, Zhang Jingxuan's attention had been placed on the four of them. The gorgeous monk, the sweaty fatty, the vulgar man, and the abnormal white-clothed scholar.
What Zhang Jingxuan did not expect was that white-clothed scholar's information was actually related to this. When this news spread, the Imperial Court might need to speed up the extermination of Lee Hongji's troops. On the other hand, it was equivalent to giving him an excellent advertisement.
Some of the things that the Chong Zhen Dynasty did were difficult to satisfy, and they were accompanied by endless natural disasters. It caused the heavens to be angry and the people to be resentful, whereas the Qing outside the pass was eyeing him covetously like a tiger watching its prey. They were coveting the Central Plains, and as a result, the hearts of the people had long since been moved. The situation was extremely complicated. It was similar to the chaotic times.
The gorgeous monk, the sweaty fatty, and the wretched man. When the three of them heard the news... It was basically as Zhang Jingxuan had expected, and they didn't seem to be shocked at all. Perhaps it was because they already knew about it, or perhaps it was because their self-restraint was astonishing. Mount Tai collapsed in front of them without changing its color.
They were unable to find any clues, but when they looked at the fourth person, Zhang Jingxuan was shocked.
Because at this moment, on the high platform, it was as if he had come silently. white-clothed scholar had already vanished without a trace, as if he was just a ghost that delivered the message. Once the mission was accomplished, he would disappear without a trace.
Even though Zhang Jingxuan's gaze was like a torch, he still couldn't figure out how he had escaped. The others were even more unable to discover him.
No matter what, Nangong Nayue had finally fulfilled her wish to become the center of attention. However, it did not feel as exciting as she had imagined. After reading the news, she also completed her mission. While she was hesitating on how to deal with the envelope and the letter in her hand, there was a sudden change in the silence. Hua Li made his debut.
The first person to discover the situation was not any of the people in the limelight, but a blind person.
The name of the blind man was Ke Jingren. He was known as the Number One Expert of the blind man realm. He was the blind elder of the Second Elder of the Beggar Gang. He was indeed very capable.
"Damn it, there is the sound of a mechanism activating. Be careful everyone!"
As an elder of the Beggar Gang, he could not speak without a few loose words. However, it was also because of these four words that many things were ruined.
The moment the blind Ke Jingren said the fifth word, rain started to fall from the ceiling of the inn.
The torrential rain outside the inn had turned into drifting rain. No one knew when, but it had stopped.
However, the clear rain in the room continued to fall.
It was a drizzle of fine hair.
Following Ke Jingren's voice, it fell on top of everyone's heads.
A large rain of needles fell from the sky. What was terrifying was that they did not seem to have been shot out by a powerful machine. If that was the case, the sound of the air being torn could be detected by many experts at once.
They were like the spring rain, carrying a hint of melancholy for no reason. They relied on their insignificant weight to descend from the sky and accelerate bit by bit. When they were so fast that they could be detected, they had already quietly reached them, making it impossible for them to dodge in time.
There was a reason for these fine needles. They were called "Unlucky to have no reason, no reason, no resentment, and the Love Setting Chaos Needle." They were as light as a feather, and all of them were leaning on the Primordial Chaos Profound Iron Essence in front of the needle tip. As they descended, they fluttered like catkins and flowers that floated in the air. Once they touched a person's body, however, they would always be able to drill into the skin. At that time, the person would become muddled and lose the ability to move.
Blind Ke Jingren's warning was a step too slow because of a curse, but he was still alert enough. He immediately picked up a blind staff next to his hand.
His movements also alerted everyone. The Chaos Needle was really too light. Even breathing could affect its speed. The falling was fast and slow, and a few people had already fallen softly to the ground.
Most of the people present were not weak, and after discovering that something was amiss, they all displayed their abilities.
As a result, this kind of hidden weapon that was not complicated and relied only on sneak attacks shouldn't be a threat anymore, right?
Unfortunately, you were wrong. And it was a huge mistake.
Everyone's injuries had just begun.
Each of them waved their weapons, guarding the door tightly, their thoughts couldn't be considered wrong. However, most of them did not know how powerful this "fate has no reason, no reason, no resentment, and nothing to kiss the Love Stabilizing Chaos Needle" was. Perhaps there were extremely few who knew, but they could not do anything about other people's actions. They could only passively respond.
This was because the Chaos Needle was small and light. If one dodged it and let it fall to the ground, the threat would basically be removed. The most taboo was to use weapons to attack them.
Of course, if it was just you alone, this wouldn't be a big problem. However, if a group of people did this, then the problem would be huge, to the point where it couldn't be any bigger.
It was only because these martial arts experts were brandishing their weapons. Or, he could use his palm force to chase away all the Chaos Needle that came to his side. Unfortunately, the inn was currently packed with people, and the Chaos Needle was light as if it was nothing, unwilling to land. So, they were floating in the air, and you just hit them out. They were chased back by others, and almost everyone became the source of the projectile. At the same time, they became targets that were attacked by endless projectiles.
With this, the difference in their martial arts was quickly determined. Some of the martial arts that weren't high enough, such as Hong Chengfeng and Tian Yi, had already been struck by the Chaos Needle and fell to the ground.
As for Zhang Jifeng and Xu Cundao, this pair of sworn enemies, at the beginning of the anomaly... Zhang Jifeng dragged Xu Cundao along and led the way under the table. Xu Cundao had no choice but to crawl under the table. The old man and the young man had their backs to each other and sealed the two sides with Taoist robes. In the other areas, they could only use the wind from the palm to protect themselves.
Zhang Jifeng winked at Xu Cundao. What he meant was, Look, the older the wiser. They are fighting with their lives on the line. We should be able to write easily here, right?
