309: Chapter 309 Old Xu, do you want a wife?

Governor Xu Mingyang reached out, grabbing some of the crystal dust left after the explosion from the air to sense it carefully.

Then he coldly shouted again, "Continue!"

Ritual Master Yu Hai was on the verge of tears, "Your Majesty, I am already injured!"

"Stop playing the fool in front of me! If you try any more tricks, you die!"

Ritual Master Yu Hai hurriedly wiped away his pathetic expression and continued to step on the ice crystals one by one.

As a Peak Spirit Map expert, he had indeed lowered his speed and defense earlier, intentionally getting injured.

Since he could not deceive Governor Xu Mingyang, he had no choice but to bring his state back to full capacity.

However, he was shocked to discover next that even with his full defense, the explosions could still injure him, and the power of the explosions was increasing.

After stepping on a dozen more mines, Ritual Master Yu Hai's clothes were tattered, his body was covered in wounds, and he stood in place, panting continuously.

Even Xu Chaoyang found it hard to watch, or rather, he was dissatisfied with his father's way of handling things.

Ritual Master Yu Hai had completely conceded; such a person could actually be kept and used, and the intimidation was enough.

Even if he had to be killed, it should be done quickly.

After all, with so many people watching, forcing him to his death would inevitably make some people feel a sense of shared grief.

So he stepped forward and whispered, "Father, let Ritual Master Yu Hai come down and rest for a while."

Originally, Governor Xu Mingyang had also intended to play the villain himself and let his son play the benevolent one.

However, at this moment, he had already sensed another Law within the explosions—the Sun Law!

This Law posed a huge threat to him, and he did not understand why such power would be hidden in the Crystal Concubine's Divine Ruins.

If one had to explain it, it was said that the Crystal Concubine was greatly favored by the Sun God, which barely made sense.

But such a sudden change made him inevitably lose his composure and forget his original intention, leading him to loudly refuse in front of everyone.

"It cannot stop! You do not need to plead for him; this bit of injury is nothing to him!"

"Ritual Master Yu Hai! Keep walking!"

Ritual Master Yu Hai felt a wave of despair; he looked back at them, his eyes filled with resentment.

The other Spirit Map experts were also filled with mixed emotions.

That was a Peak Spirit Map expert, the Imperial Academy Ritual Master Yu Hai, yet now he was being forced to die.

Furthermore, at this rate, even if Ritual Master Yu Hai died, this trap was far from over.

Who would be next?

Everyone had gathered to rebel because the Ye Family was unrighteous and life had become unbearable.

But looking at Governor Xu Mingyang's cruelty, it was unlikely that he would be any better than the Ye Family in the future.

Just as Ritual Master Yu Hai was about to take another step, a long laugh suddenly came from the opposite side.

"Hahaha~~!"

"You bunch of stupid dogs!"

"Is helping the Xu Family clear mines fun?"

Everyone could not help but concentrate and look forward, but the front was shimmering with crystal light, and their Mental Energy was strongly interfered with by the Law, making it impossible to see clearly.

Although Governor Xu Mingyang could barely see someone walking out from the side of the altar, that person was clad in a suit of crystal-light battle armor, so he also could not see the face clearly.

His mind shook violently, as if the rivers and seas were overturning.

Because he recognized that armor; back then, he had tried his best, that was... the Crystal Concubine's Divine Armor!

That was also a trap; even if one chose it, the item could not be taken away at all, and it would trigger something even more terrifying.

But the person opposite took off the crystal helmet, revealing his face as if to show off, and then shouted loudly again.

"Everyone, do you see clearly? I am Division Commander Song Yu!"

"This crystal domain is by no means impassable; you just need to charge over at the fastest speed!"

"Even if you get a little injured, it definitely won't cost you your life!"

"Look at me, that is how I came over!"

"The Xu father and son are lying to you! They are using this place to eliminate dissidents and kill off everyone they don't trust! At the same time, they are weakening the strength of all the main cities to facilitate their future rule!"

"A Wu Xun has already died, now it is Ritual Master Yu Hai's turn, and then? Who is next?"

Division Commander Song Yu's words immediately caused a commotion.

"It really is Division Commander Song Yu!"

"Wasn't he... so he arrived here a step earlier."

"He really made it across, so that means..."

"If one can fly directly across, even if the injury is heavier, it is better than this slow torture."

"Exactly, how many lives would it cost to force a way through!"

"Is that a suit of armor on him? Is it a treasure obtained from the altar?"

Governor Xu Mingyang saw that the situation was not right and immediately shouted: "Do not listen to his nonsense!"

"There is indeed treasure on the altar, but as soon as you touch it, it will trigger an even more terrifying trap."

"It is the Crystal Concubine's illusion! It must be the Crystal Concubine's illusion!"

"That thing creates false images!"

"He is not Division Commander Song Yu at all, it's fake!"

Division Commander Song Yu laughed, "I am an illusion, is Elder Zheng also an illusion?"

At this moment, a light flickered, and Zheng Buwan also appeared beside him, waving to greet this side.

"Everyone, I am Zheng Buwan; I played a small joke on everyone earlier, please don't mind!"

Seeing him appear, many people on the opposite side were even more shocked.

The reason the battle in the ocean was so difficult was because of the interference of a Water-element Spirit Map expert.

Some people had already guessed it might be him, but it was personally denied by Xu Chaoyang.

But now, the truth was like a heavy slap to Xu Chaoyang's face.

Most importantly, who is Zheng Buwan?

The Zheng Family has been in business for generations; although their power in Song City is not the greatest, they have existed longer than any other Family.

They do not act without profit, are driven solely by profit, are old, cunning, and calculating.

You can find many words to describe the Zheng Family, but you cannot find a single example of them doing business at a loss.

The movements of the Zheng Family are a weather vane in themselves.

Before Xu Chaoyang started his rebellion, he also had to obtain the support of the Zheng Family first.

Now that this old ghost Zheng Buwan has actually taken the field as an enemy, what does this mean!

Xu Chaoyang could not help but shout: "Elder Zheng! Don't forget, your whole Family is in Song City, in the palm of my hand!"

"In the palm of your hand? Hehe! Do you think I look like a fool?"

Zheng Buwan sneered, "Song City is no longer surnamed Xu. I just received news that General Liang has been killed, and your cohorts are being uprooted."

"Impossible! General Liang's strength is firmly in the top three of Song City; who could hurt him!"

"Commander-in-Chief Wang Jintang? Or Yun Zhuoyue?"

"Even if you add Fire Hand and Zheng Duo, they wouldn't be able to stir up any waves in front of him!"

This time, Zheng Buwan and Division Commander Song Yu laughed until they were doubled over.

"Grand Governor Xu Mingyang, did you forget someone?"

"Bishop High Priest Shang Yuleng, oh, now he should be called High Priest Shang."

"He has already achieved the Huagai Realm and turned your dog kennel upside down!"

"Also, Your Excellency Tang Long asked me to ask you, Old Xu, do you want a wife?"

Everyone was very confused, only Xu Chaoyang and his father looked pale.

"Hehe, you shameless thing, you actually wanted to force a marriage with the little girl from the Jiang Family."

"The new Governor of Song City is Old Jiang; you didn't expect that, did you?"

Xu Chaoyang glared and shouted, "Impossible! High Priest Shang Yuleng was only at the Mid-stage Spirit Map, how could he achieve the Huagai Realm so quickly! You are lying! Tang Long is already dead; my father killed him with his own hands!"

"We are lying? Then why did you run to the Divine Ruins with so many people?"

"To tell you the truth, Your Excellency Tang Long discovered this Divine Ruins a long time ago, and had already brought people in."

"Otherwise, how could we be one step ahead of you right now?"

"You say Tang Long is dead, hehe, are you sure?"

As Elder Zheng threw out these words, the opposite side was in an uproar.

If what he said was true, then Xu Chaoyang and his father were now commanders without troops, and the rebellion was naturally out of the question.

Without the military force of Song City, the two cities of Sangyu could only stare blankly.

Besides, this Divine Ruins had already been taken by others, what benefits could they still gain?

Having planned for so long and spent so much effort, the result had all turned into bubbles.

And that hateful thing, Tang Long, could it be that even the Huagai Realm couldn't kill him?

The Sangyu side was very panicked.

Xu Chaoyang was very panicked.

But the several bishops of the Songcheng Sect were even more panicked.

They had come to the Divine Ruins in secret, colluding with Xu Chaoyang behind Tang Long's back.

Never did they expect that Tang Long had actually known about this all along, and had helped High Priest Shang Yuleng achieve the Huagai Realm.

This was truly losing the watermelon to pick up sesame seeds; it was extremely embarrassing.

So, is Your Excellency Tang Long really dead?

If he is not dead, when they meet again, they will be a bunch of clowns.

Being a clown is not a big deal.

After all, having lived to this age, everyone's skin had already thickened.

But, Governor Xu Mingyang already found them extremely unpleasant because of Tang Long, and now with this matter added, their lives were probably hanging by a thread!

Just at this moment, Governor Xu Mingyang suddenly burst into loud laughter.

"Good! Very good!"

"With just a few light words, you shook my army's morale; I must admit you did a beautiful job!"

"However, the true cannot be fake, and the fake cannot be true."

"Even if High Priest Shang Yuleng has indeed ascended to the Huagai Realm, so what?"

"A newly ascended Huagai Realm expert, how many minutes can he last in front of me?"

"My son Xu Chaoyang is still here, and the division commanders are still here. When we return to Song City, those clowns will only die a miserable death."

"You bunch of guys jumped out on your own; I might as well clean you all up at once to save trouble later."

"I think this is very good!"

Governor Xu Mingyang's words revealed strong confidence, and it was reasonable.

After all, he had previously easily killed another Huagai Realm expert.

With the track record there, the others naturally calmed down.

Surprisingly, Zheng Buwan laughed even more strangely.

"Do you think you can still go back?"

This one sentence cast a shadow over everyone's hearts again.

But just at this moment, Ritual Master Yu Hai, who almost no one was paying attention to, suddenly soared into the air and dashed rapidly towards the front.

Governor Xu Mingyang roared instantly and waved his hand, slashing out a beam of white light.

But he had been distracted earlier, so his attack was a bit late; by the time the attack was launched, Ritual Master Yu Hai had already crossed most of the distance.

Layers of ice ripples unfolded in mid-air, as if hanging layers of frost on Ritual Master Yu Hai.

He swung his arms frantically and actually pierced through the layers of ice ripples.

Moreover, the white light that came crashing from behind was blocked by the ice ripples instead.

Just one second later, Ritual Master Yu Hai crossed all the ice crystals and crashed into the foot of the altar, his left arm shattered into ice shards all over the ground.

But, he was still alive.

He let out a strange laugh that was incomparably miserable yet full of the joy of surviving a desperate situation, and immediately began to curse loudly.

"Xu! I'll curse your eighteen generations of ancestors!"
