Chapter 353: The Substitute Captain is Shocked to Hear the Five Animals
"Qianmei is dead!"

The young city gate guard looked at the pile of ashes in front of him and still couldn't believe what he saw.

After observing for a long time and still seeing no signs of revival, he reacted and knelt down and kowtowed to Xiao Ding.

"Ancestor, Qian Mei is dead, and Gongliang City is saved."

The small tripod vibrated twice and flew towards the ruins of the city gate guards' base.

The young man looked back at the devastated streets, and heard earth-shaking shouts and screams from the city walls; the rebels were about to break into the city.

Gongliang City was spared from hidden disasters, but ultimately could not escape man-made disasters!
"The city gate guards are still alive. I want to protect this city."

He took a deep breath and did not choose to escape. Instead, he followed Xiao Ding's direction and returned to the city gate guard station.

After a fire, a seed hides in the scorched earth, waiting for the opportunity to take root and sprout.

The gate guards of Gongliang City will surely have the opportunity to be reborn from the ashes.

"..."

Zhou You checked his body and found that his body was full of energy and blood. There was no sign of the evil spirit in the dream invading and sucking his essence.

Although he was unwilling to admit it, he was pushed back and fired a detoxification cannon when he lost the ability to resist.

In a trance, a flash of red passed by his eyes, adding to his confusion.

Bao Shuixian sacrificed her virginity to save him and eradicate his resentment. Was it just to borrow his seed that she made such a huge sacrifice?

A reminder sounded in my ears:
"You were tortured by the flames of resentment, but the yin-yang harmonization method neutralized it and eliminated it. There are no sequelae."

"The Primordial Iron Armor evolves under the stimulation of the resentful fire, and gains the attribute: Rising from the Fire, when attacked by fire attribute fists, the damage will be rebounded by 50%, and the strength will be increased by 30%."

"After you have achieved the harmony of yin and yang, you will suddenly realize the mystery of the complementary nature of yin and yang, and the harmony of hardness and softness. This is the foundation for becoming a high-level martial artist."

"You used the authority of the city gate guards and used the divine weapon bestowed by the king to kill Qianmei, and automatically replaced as the leader of the Gongliang city gate guards. Before the government sends someone to fill the vacancy, you will be given an additional occupation: substitute captain of the city gate guards."

"."

Zhou You felt the badge on his waist suddenly become hot, and the words on the surface actually swam and reorganized like tadpoles, transforming into completely new content in the blink of an eye.

"Substitute Captain, guarding the city gates, exorcising evil spirits, protecting local peace, and commanding all the city gate guards."

He looked at it carefully for a moment and then put the badge into his arms.

Suddenly, he found something in his arms, which was definitely not his.

"This is?"

The remains left behind by Qianmei after his death unexpectedly traveled hundreds of miles from Gongliang City and appeared in his arms.

The remains of Qianmei, this is not a defective product like Jinqian, but the remains left after a Qianmei in its complete state was killed.

A ball of soft black gauze felt like nothing in his hand. Even though Zhou You was a martial artist and could feel the weight of a speck of dust, he could not feel any weight at all in his hand.

If the panel had not reminded him that this thing really existed, Zhou You would have thought that the black veil was a shadow that deceived his eyes.

Zhou You tried again and again, but found that he was temporarily unable to use the black gauze with his own abilities.

After panel identification, this ball of black veil is the real remains of a latent ghost, and its value is inestimable!
In this case, we can continue to fuse it into the dagger and upgrade it into a true latent magic weapon.

When Zhou You caught up with the caravan, he found that it had stopped and they were building a stove, making fire, washing rice and cooking.

It's normal to think about it. After escaping from Gongliang City for several days and nights, everyone had run out of dry food and were hungry and thirsty. Once they reached a safe area, they could get some food to fill their stomachs.

On the other hand, it was also to wait for Zhou You to return, after all, he was the backbone of the team. "...I picked up my mother and finally escaped from the city. I saw that it was bad and the rebels were about to attack again. I quickly found a small road and managed to escape."

A man in the convoy was chewing on dry food, and couldn't wait to tell everyone what had happened to him.

Zhou You took a look and saw that it was Shi Gaofei, whom he met when he was leaving the city. He had also escaped with his elderly mother.

When everyone saw Zhou You returning, they all breathed a sigh of relief. The wilderness was vast and full of dangers, and it was good enough that he could come back alive.

When Shi Gaofei saw Zhou You, he stood up and saluted, "Junior Brother Zhou, I am grateful for your kindness."

Zhou You returned the gesture with a fist salute, and everything was said without words.

Next, everyone in the convoy formed a circle, some fighting and some sitting, listening quietly to Shi Gaofei talk about the follow-up of Gongliang City.

Shi Gaofei and the convoy were only a little behind in time, but he saw the doomsday scene of Gongliang City's collapse.

They sneaked into the city and completely crushed the last bit of resistance in Gongliang City. The external rebels took the opportunity to capture the city.

The martial artists who escaped were trapped in the sea of ​​rebels, outnumbered against the enemy, and their fates varied.

"Human power has its limits, and Qi and blood will eventually run out. Once you are trapped in an endless stream of rebels, your Qi and blood will be like water without roots and cannot be replenished. In the end, you will die in battle, and your body will be torn into pieces."

When Shi Gaofei mentioned this scene, he sighed.

He once saw with his own eyes that a certain martial artist, who was alone and had neither trusted disciples nor capable helpers, thought he could break through the rebel formation on his own.

As a result, he had run out of energy and blood before he had gone halfway into the rebel army. The enemies swarmed over him, hooked his limbs with iron hooks, and chopped him with thousands of blades for three days and three nights. Even a martial artist's body could not withstand it and was chopped to pieces.

Those who have the greatest chance of escape are the martial arts masters in the martial arts schools, who have at least a few disciples who are willing to risk their lives.

"Master Wang of the Rock Martial Arts School, several of his disciples fought desperately to hold back the enemy for him, but they died tragically under the repeated attacks of the rebel warriors. He rushed out of the rebel formation alone with his family, but he refused to leave even until he died."

Shi Gaofei sighed, "He looked at the place where his disciples were buried behind him and angrily said, 'What's the point of keeping me alive? The Rock Fist will cease to exist today.'"

"And Master Jia of the Three Red Fists, the one who likes to chew vines. His entire family of apprentices, including his old wife, and three pairs of sons and daughters-in-law were caught up in the chaos, and in the end he was able to rescue only two half-crippled disciples and a grandson who was still breastfeeding."

"He used to have a full head of black hair, not like an old man. After this incident, his hair turned white like snow, not a single black hair was left."

"And Master..."

When Wang Jianxiong was mentioned, everyone became a little nervous and couldn't help but look at Zhou You.

Zhou You looked calm and said, "Go on."

"I wasn't there at the time, so I didn't see it with my own eyes. I heard that Master was besieged by powerful enemies and used his realm-shifting ability to leap into the Golden Tiger realm, and was able to escape with Junior Sister."

"The eldest brother died. The enemy was too strong. He held on desperately, but his arms were torn off. The broken arms were inserted into his mouth and he died."

Lu Qiang is dead too?
Zhou You thought about when he first entered the martial arts gym, his guide was Lu Qiang, and it was he who taught him boxing step by step in the early stages.

Although he is called senior brother, Lu Qiang is equivalent to his enlightenment mentor.

"What kind of enemy could make Wang Lao Hu so embarrassed?"

After knowing the meaning of realm transition, Zhou You couldn't help but be amazed. Wang Lao Hu had to unleash his potential and upgrade to a mid-level martial artist to escape. Where did such a terrifying master come from among the rebels?

"I heard that there are five martial artists from other places, known as the Five Animals."

"Their strength far exceeds that of the martial artists in this city. Not only did they force the master to flee in embarrassment, they also captured the master and his apprentice of the Jiba Martial Arts School, Mao, alive. They are notorious for their viciousness."
