As soon as he said this, Gong Yuanzheng wanted to slap himself. He changed his words and said, "I'll go take a look. Zhao Zhao, you stay here."

Fortunately, he always carried his usual equipment with him. He took out his black and gold-thread gloves, which were as thin as a cicada's wing, and put them on. He then went to his room in the Corner Palace to get a spare brown-gray woolen coat, put it on, and was about to leave as soon as he got out of the door.

How could he stay? When Zhang Xueming realized what the red light on the tower meant, he broke out in a cold sweat.

During the interrogation, a local-level spy named Wu Feng was found. After reading the confession, Gong Shangjiao went to the Council of Elders. Immediately afterwards, the palace gate was put on red light alert. How likely is it that the incident has nothing to do with Gong Shangjiao?

Thinking that the former Blade-wielding stepmother Ming Wuji was a hidden assassin without a front for more than 20 years, and that the father and son in Houshan Yuegong were both suspected of sheltering Wufeng, Zhang Xueming also wanted to slap himself.

Hasn't she already deduced that Gongmen is where the plot takes place, Gong Yuanzheng is the protagonist, and Gong Shangjiao is an important male supporting role? In order to transform Gong Yuanzheng from a little cutie into a male protagonist who can shoulder heavy responsibilities, Gong Shangjiao will most likely die a violent death in order to facilitate Gong Yuanzheng's transformation?

How could he be so careless as to let Gong Shangjiao go to the Council of Elders alone in the middle of the night?

What the hell are you still pretending for at this time? You don’t even know if this damn honeycomb coal spirit is still alive!

Zhang Xueming stood outside the door with a gloomy face, his eyes as deep as a cold pond, and his whole body exuded a coldness that kept strangers away.

Jin Fu, who was originally very anxious, didn't even dare to breathe at this moment: his master was also like this when he was angry, but definitely not as scary as Miss Zhao.

As soon as Gong Yuanzheng walked out of the room, Zhang Xueming grabbed his arm and pulled him over.

Zhang Xueming nimbly slipped his left hand under Gong Yuanzheng's coat and grasped his waist. He said in a deep voice, "Show me the way."

The internal force surged out and enveloped Gong Yuanzheng's entire body. She tightened her arms, exerted force with her legs, and suddenly jumped up while holding Gong Yuanzheng. The wind she created blew onto Jin Fu's face.

"Jin Fu, we'll go over first!" Her voice came from afar.

Jin Fu looked carefully, but where were the two people in the night?

This time he was really in a hurry, so Zhang Xueming didn't care whether his true strength would be exposed. He unfolded the 3D map in his mind, compared it with the direction of the Blade Hall, and moved forward at full speed.

There were many sentries and guards on the road, but unfortunately they were below. Zhang Xueming and Gong Yuanzheng took the aerial passage above the tree canopy, which was at least ten feet above the ground.

Her movements were light and fast. One guard inadvertently looked up and saw a large black shadow flash by in the night sky. When he looked again, it was gone. He thought he was just seeing things.

Zhang Xueming drove at full speed all the way, at lightning speed, countless times faster than the day he went to the Blade Hall. The scenery on both sides was stretched into a straight line.

When Gong Yuanzheng reacted, he could only suppress his worry about Zhang Xueming. He stared straight ahead, trying to determine the direction. He didn't dare to look to the sides because he felt dizzy.

Fortunately, Gong Yuanzheng had a good sense of direction and asked Zhang Xueming to change direction before they reached the Blade Hall.

"The Council of Elders is over there." Gong Yuanzheng said, pointing to a place in the distance where lights were faintly visible.

Zhang Xueming was so angry that he almost cursed, and the chill emanating from his body intensified.

The Elders' Council is so far from the Blade Wielding Palace, no wonder the errand boys are all from the Yellow Jade and Red Jade. Why not try with an ordinary person who doesn't know how to fight? Half a day went by. If you need to find someone urgently, by the time you find someone, it's too late.

If... I hope Gong Shangjiao can hold on and not die so quickly!

You can already see a group of solemn buildings surrounded by countless tall trees. There is no snow on the bluestone paved road, and a cold light is floating under the sparse lights.

"Zhao Zhao, we have to go down. There are too many trees here, and we won't be able to determine the location of the meeting hall if we don't go down."

Zhang Xueming and Gong Yuanzheng swooped down from the top of the tall tree canopy and landed silently.

The courtyard is neatly maintained, with tall trees lining the avenues, and the air is filled with the scent of sandalwood.

"There! The conference room is there!" Gong Yuanzheng pointed to Zhang Xueming and didn't dare to say another word.

The mood of the girl next to him was obviously not right, and the aura around her was frighteningly cold. Gong Yuanzheng sensed a sense of irritability from her, like a volcano about to erupt. It only took a little spark to shatter a person into pieces in an instant.

It was too far away and could not be reached by spiritual sense. Zhang Xueming was just about to take a deep breath and leap straight to the destination when suddenly, two yellow jade servants with knives flashed out from the shadows of the trees. There was more than one of them.

"Who is it?!" someone shouted.

Gong Yuanzheng hurriedly grabbed Zhang Xueming, held up the attached token of Zhiren, and said loudly: "Zhenggong Gong Yuanzheng and Zheng Zhaozhao want to see Zhiren for something important!"

"Stop." Someone from Huang Yu's servant shouted in a deep voice.

They did not sheath their swords, but silently surrounded the two men.

The Council of Elders is an important place, so the identity of the visitor must be ascertained, and only after permission is obtained will the topaz servants give way.

There would be no problem with such a procedure under normal circumstances, but unfortunately the one he encountered now was Zhang Xueming, who was already upset and confused by all sorts of random thoughts.

Because Elder Yue and Young Master Yue were definitely shielding the Wufeng assassin, they suspected that the news about the Wufeng earth-level spy brought by Gong Shangjiao had touched someone's lungs, and the other two elders were deceived. Hongyu Shi Jinting had only been here for a few days and was not loyal enough to Gong Shangjiao. Gong Shangjiao was besieged and trapped in danger...

Zhang Xueming's inner anxiety reached its peak at this moment, and his voice, which contained a tyrannical inner force, instantly resounded throughout the Elders' Council: "Gong Shangjiao, where are you?! If you're still alive, make a sound!"

The sound waves suddenly seemed to have substance. Gong Yuanzheng, who was not affected, looked on in shock as the air in front of him turned into an ink pool, with him and Zhang Xueming as the center, and layers of visible "ripples" spreading outward.

Those topaz servants were caught off guard and hit by the outermost circle of "ripples". They were knocked backwards without even being able to put up any effective resistance.

Really? Fly out.

The kind that flew more than ten meters and crashed into the woods.

Even so, Zhang Xueming still had a trace of rationality in his mind. Before confirming whether Gong Shangjiao was dead or alive, he did not take any ruthless action. Instead, he knocked the man away and rushed forward with Gong Yuanzheng.

Gong Yuanzheng was completely frightened, staring blankly at the Huang Yu servants who kept appearing in front of him, rushing towards him, swinging their swords, and then seemed to hit an invisible wall, bouncing back, the swords falling, and the people falling.

Zhang Xueming's furious voice was heard in his ears: "Gong Shangjiao! Gong Shangjiao! Gong Shangjiao! Are you dead?! Respond to me!!!"

How can I respond if I'm dead? A strange thought popped up in Gong Yuanzheng's blank mind.

When he came to his senses, he was panicked again: Why did Zhao Zhao suddenly go berserk? Why was she so sure that my brother was in trouble? Why did she completely disregard the elders' face...

Then his thoughts also slid into Elder Yue and Young Master Yue.

At this moment, the two people's thoughts were strangely synchronized.

Gong Yuanzheng was infected by Zhang Xueming's anxiety. He also mixed his inner strength into his voice and shouted: "Brother! Brother, where are you? Zhao Zhao and I are here to save you! Brother!! Gong Shangjiao!!!"

Amidst the chaos, a familiar voice finally rang out from the buildings hidden by the night and trees: "Gong Yuanzheng! Zheng Zhaozhao! Are you two planning to turn the tables?!"
