Chapter 391 Gu Xu's Revenge

In the next period of time, Zhao Changqi noticed that Coach Cai was the nominal leader of the men in black, but he showed respect and obedience to the monk holding the talisman.

It's as if that plain-looking guy is the real leader.

"There seems to be a problem over there." Suddenly, the cultivator holding the talisman pointed to a rockery in the courtyard.

Zhao Changqi's heart trembled.

Because his hidden secret room is located directly under the rockery.

But his expression was still calm and calm, showing nothing unusual.

He has enough confidence in the formation of the secret room, and it is definitely not something that a cat or a dog can easily crack.

Afterwards, the black-clothed monk walked towards the rockery, and spread the stack of talismans in his hands into a circle on the ground in an orderly manner, faintly forming a new formation.

Immediately afterwards, the monk began to murmur a mantra.

At this moment, every talisman on the ground glowed with a silvery white light, and then the light was connected into one piece, which was particularly dazzling.

Before Zhao Changqi could react, the ground suddenly began to vibrate violently, and then obvious cracks appeared one after another.

This sudden change made Zhao Changqi almost unsteady.

"What are you doing?" He pointed at the monk and shouted, with obvious anger on his brows, "Your Majesty just sent you here to investigate, not to tear down my house!

"The rockery in my house is Zhenze stone shipped from Huizhou Prefecture in the south. The trees in my house are also golden nanmu shipped from the southwest of Dahuang. It's not something you can afford!"

But the monk in black ignored him at all, and was still casting spells on his own.

Zhao Changqi didn't understand the way of the talisman array, nor could he understand what he was reading.

But an ominous premonition arose in his heart—if the monk in black was allowed to finish reciting this incantation, the consequences would be disastrous.

So he waved his hand and summoned his natal creature——

A fiery red ax that looks like solidified magma.

This ax is called "Tonghua Axe", which can make his attacks attach the power of flames, greatly increasing the power.

Without saying a word, he swung his ax and slashed at the monk in black.

The black-clothed friar didn't dodge or evade, standing still like a wooden man, as if he didn't notice the coming crisis at all.

The blade of the ax hit him in the head in an instant.

But the strange thing is that Zhao Changqi didn't feel the resistance of the ax blade piercing through the flesh and bones, but it seemed to penetrate a thin piece of paper.

Then he was surprised to see that the body of the monk in black quickly deflated like a leaking ball.

Flames blazed through him, burning him to black ashes.

It turned out that this was just a paper man!
At the same time, another servant in black took over the work of his dead companion with a blank face, and continued to chant the unfinished spell in a mechanically indifferent voice.

Seeing this weird scene, Zhao Changqi took a deep breath and frowned tightly.

He realized that he had underestimated the strength of his opponent.

The enemy who lurks in the dark and intends to target him has far more powerful means than he imagined, and is more difficult to guard against.

As a monk in the sixth realm, he didn't realize at all that the group of subordinates brought by Coach Cai were all paper puppets with no vital signs!
"Zhao Yu, don't rely on women, hurry up and help!"

While shouting towards the next room, he continued to swing the flaming axe, striking at the remaining monks in black.

He had to destroy all these paper figurines before they finished chanting the spell.

Coach Cai stood aside, watching Zhao Changqi fight with the paper people, his eyes were calm, and he had no intention of helping any of them.

As Zhao Changying's loyal subordinate and Zhao Yan's extremely trusted teacher, his identity today is a witness and an enforcer.

From the bottom of his heart, he hopes to see the Royal Family of Dayan live in harmony and unity, and he is not willing to accept the fact that his uncle and nephew are against each other.

Knowing what he was thinking, Zhao Yan only assigned him the task of "guaranteeing the safety of Gu Xu's life". He was only needed to do it after Gu Xu found conclusive evidence.

…………

A few seconds later, Zhao Changqi and Zhao Yu and his son joined forces to kill all the paper people in the yard.

Zhao Yu was fighting with some women on the bed just now.

He originally thought that today's investigation was just a trivial matter, which could be easily resolved by relying on his father's strength.

So he didn't care, and still played every night as usual.

I didn't expect my father to deal with it so embarrassingly.

He had to come out disheveled—hair disheveled, belt untied, the wrong pair of shoes, and a faint flush still lingering on his face.

After successfully stopping the spells of the paper people, Zhao Changqi breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to look at Coach Cai next to him: "I need you to give me an explanation.

"In my impression, there are no monks who are good at using talismans and puppet techniques in my niece's personal guard. I'm curious, why did you let a non-staff member sneak into your team and let him act recklessly in my courtyard sabotage?"

Coach Cai didn't speak.

He just turned his head to look in the direction of the rockery just now, with a strange look in his eyes.

Zhao Changqi also followed his gaze.

Even though he is usually a person who can't express his emotions and anger, he can't help but widen his eyes in surprise at this moment——

The rockery in his garden has disappeared at some point.

Instead, there are rows of bookshelves stuffed with documents, a wooden table, and two carved chairs.There was also a half-burned candle on the table.

——Exactly the furnishings in Zhao Changqi's secret room!

He never imagined that the enemy would have such a method, not only breaking the formation of his secret room, but also silently swapping the space of his underground secret room with the rockery in the courtyard!
A burst of real fear emerged in Zhao Changqi's heart.

He thought and thought, but he really couldn't think of any cultivator who not only possessed the master-level talisman formation attainment, but also could apply the law of space to a level of proficiency.

He even suspected that this might be some sage strongman from Daqi, who was lurking in Luojing City and wanted to kill him quietly.

But at this moment, a familiar voice floated into his ears:
"General Zhao, I really don't want to meet you in this way, and I don't even want to form a grudge with you. However, you poisoned the tea and secretly sent someone to kill me. You must give me a reasonable explanation, right? "

"Gu Xu?"

"it's me."

As soon as the words were finished, a young man appeared on the grand master's chair by the table.

He was dressed in a green shirt, without a mask, with a faint smile on his face, holding a piece of letter paper in his hand, looking gentle, elegant and handsome.

Just now he used the illusion talisman to hide his figure.

Now after Zhao Changqi called out his name, he removed the spell and revealed his real body.

"By the way, General Zhao," Gu Xu paused, pointed to the letter in his hand, and continued, "Why is there a letter addressed to Princess Zhaoning of the Great Qi in your room?"
