310: Chapter 310 Those who act unjustly find themselves isolated.

Governor Xu Mingyang was furious.

He roared loudly, "Songcheng Sect! You guys, go!"

Lv Yang and the others looked at each other, feeling their scalps tingle.

Yu Hai had charged over, but he was practically skinned alive and even lost an arm.

And he was at the Spirit Map Peak.

What about them?

Even if they could make it across alive, they would end up severely injured. How could they fight the three people on the other side?

But just then, Guo Mo and Ren Jianwen from the Fengcheng Sect stepped forward.

"Governor, Yu Hai is at least at the Spirit Map Peak, and with Zheng Buwan and Division Commander Song Yu there, those three wouldn't be able to win even if they charged over. Why not let the two of us go together?"

Governor Xu Mingyang narrowed his eyes, staring at the two.

Just then, a masked person behind Xu Chaoyang suddenly laughed strangely.

"Governor, when things are abnormal, there must be a demon at play."

"The two of them are being so proactive all of a sudden; I'm afraid they have ulterior motives."

"If they charge over and defect to the other side, that would be a huge joke."

Guo Mo immediately retorted, "Both the Fengcheng Sect and the Songcheng Sect are servants of the Red God. Is it abnormal for us to be close?"

"It's you lot, hiding your heads and covering your faces, not daring to show your true appearances. What are you afraid of?"

"All along this journey, you've been cowering behind Governor Xu, barely getting injured and contributing almost nothing."

"Now, you're sowing discord again."

"I'd like to ask, who exactly are you, and what are your intentions?"

"Governor, I suspect they are Blasphemers!"

Once this was shouted, even Governor Gao Gong and Governor Huang Weiyi were shocked, and they couldn't help but step a bit further away from the four masked men.

After all, the term Blasphemers was basically synonymous with dangerous, insidious, dirty, evil, and shameless.

If you have such people around you, you must be careful.

But Governor Xu Mingyang laughed.

He pointed at the masked men, "No need to suspect, they are indeed Blasphemers."

What!

Almost everyone was shocked.

So you knew all along and kept it hidden until now? What are you Xus trying to do?

But Governor Xu Mingyang was very happy.

To be precise, he was very pleased to see the infighting between The Sects and the Blasphemers.

The Blasphemers saw that he wanted to suppress The Sects and immediately jumped out to cause trouble, wanting to use his knife to kill people.

The old rabbits of The Sects saw that the situation was bad and went with the flow, wanting to use the Blasphemers to divert attention.

This was very good.

These people were the most unstable factors; although they could be used temporarily, they could never be relied upon. In the long run, the more severe their casualties, the better.

So he snorted, "So what if they are Blasphemers! In my eyes, The Sects are no more trustworthy than the Blasphemers! Who is a friend and who is an enemy, I will see clearly with my own eyes."

The masked man chuckled, "The Governor is a sensible person, so we can rest easy. Let them go in front, and we will follow behind, charging over together."

"That's a good plan!" Governor Xu Mingyang said, turning to the bishops, "What do you say?"

The faces of Lv Yang and the other two were blank, while Guo Mo and Ren Jianwen looked at each other, feeling like they had seen a ghost.

The reason they volunteered was because they had received the secret code agreed upon with Tang Long—that phrase: "Old Xu, do you want a wife?"

Although Tang Long had told them there were other secret agents around, he hadn't told them who they were.

He only said that whoever actively gathered on the opposite side after hearing this phrase was one of their own.

Before, when Division Commander Song Yu slipped over, they thought he was the only one.

Never did they expect that at this moment, four Blasphemers would actually respond to the code!

On the contrary, Liu Zhiming, Lv Yang, and Wei Ye showed no reaction at all.

What on earth is that brat Tang Long up to?

This... could it be a coincidence?

But they had no time to ponder, because Governor Xu Mingyang was already pressing them again.

"What? Unwilling?"

Guo Mo had no choice but to nod.

The nine people split into three waves: the Songcheng Sect in front, the Fengcheng Sect in the middle, and the Blasphemers in the back. Following Governor Xu Mingyang's order, they flashed forward like nine instantaneous shadows.

The three from Liu Zhiming's side directly blasted three dragon-like streams of fire through the air, and the ice ripples in mid-air appeared again. As ice and fire clashed, a large mist immediately rose.

They found the resistance far less than expected, so they added more force, and their attacks quickly extended to Zheng Buwan and Division Commander Song Yu in front of the altar.

But just then, they suddenly discovered another figure appearing between the two.

"Your Excellency Tang Long!"

The attacks came to an abrupt halt.

When the three bishops landed beside Tang Long, each had a layer of frost on them, all shivering.

But when they saw Tang Long, a huge shock surged in their hearts.

Your Excellency Tang Long is really here!

That is to say, everything was within his calculations!

Wei Ye was suddenly startled and immediately shouted, "Careful!"

He looked back and stared fixedly at the incoming figures; Liu Zhiming and Lv Yang also reacted at the same time.

Because even if Guo Mo and Ren Jianwen wouldn't attack them, there were still four Blasphemers in the rear.

But Tang Long said dismissively, "It's fine, they are all our own people."

Watching the Fengcheng Sect and the Blasphemers charge over one after another and land beside him, the three were dumbfounded.

Liu Zhiming frowned and asked, "Your Excellency, you... and them..."

"Temporarily setting aside differences. If you are unwilling, you can go back and stand on Old Xu's side."

Liu Zhiming sensed Tang Long's dissatisfaction and immediately shut his mouth; Lv Yang and Wei Ye also pretended to be puppets.

Guo Mo and Ren Jianwen looked at them jokingly, then bowed slightly to Tang Long with a smile.

"Your Excellency Tang Long, the High Priest asked us to convey his greetings to you. Everything is proceeding as agreed."

Tang Long nodded, "Good, thank you."

A Blasphemer also reported to Tang Long, "By the order of the Shepherd and the Angler, we now follow your command, Your Excellency."

"Much appreciated."

Tang Long also nodded, then smiled.

"Now that everything is ready, we are just waiting for them to attack. However, they seem to still be dazed."

Governor Xu Mingyang and the others were indeed dazed, unable to understand what had happened.

"They... charged over."

"They did charge over, but..."

"Is that Tang Long on the other side? Is he really still alive? Didn't the Governor say before that he killed him with his own hands?"

"I'm afraid it's true."

"Then that's terrible. Not to mention the Songcheng Sect, even the Fengcheng Sect has a deep relationship with him and must have stood on his side."

"I know all that. But what about the Blasphemers? Tang Long's friendship with Fengcheng was because he wiped out the Fengcheng branch of the Blasphemers in one fell swoop."

Xu Chaoyang couldn't figure out why the Blasphemers would stand on Tang Long's side either, but he felt a bone-chilling coldness.

The Blasphemers fully defecting to Tang Long would have consequences far beyond the immediate awkwardness.

Wei Mingzhu was also a Blasphemer; if that pillow-mate who had been with him for more than twenty years also betrayed him, Song City would be completely finished.

So, everything Zheng Buwan said just now was true.

The new dynasty, the throne, the grand ambition—none of it existed anymore, destroyed at the hands of a mere Qi Manipulation Realm brat.

Even this Divine Ruins had been snatched away by him first???

Tang Long!

It's all this Tang Long!

Staring blankly at Tang Long on the other side, the more Xu Chaoyang thought, the more he hated him. His murderous intent grew more intense, and he instantly lost his usual composure and rationality.

He didn't greet anyone and dashed forward like a streak of lightning.

The wild wind howled into a vortex, and countless wind blades swept over from all directions, blotting out the sky.

What had blocked the others before were just some ice-like frost-colored light ripples.

But for some reason, at this moment, crystal lights flickered in the mid-air on the opposite side. It was as if space was being divided and frozen layer by layer, and then quickly counterattacking.

Governor Xu Mingyang roared, "Chaoyang, be careful! Someone is manipulating the Law!"

However, his warning was too late.

Xu Chaoyang's attack couldn't touch Tang Long at all, and his figure was instantly swallowed by a piece of crystal light, sealed directly into a large crystal, and fell from mid-air.

Governor Xu Mingyang felt his lungs were about to explode with anger and immediately launched an attack himself; two black lights arrived in the blink of an eye.

They didn't attack Tang Long, but slashed at the ice crystal sealing Xu Chaoyang.

The sturdiness of this ice crystal was clearly beyond his expectations; the two slashes only made some cracks. Governor Xu Mingyang fired three more shots before shattering the large ice crystal.

At this moment, Governor Xu Mingyang had arrived and reached out to support the trembling Xu Chaoyang.

Tang Long chuckled, "Governor, you are truly full of surprises. To be able to stand still after this, you're a tough man."

"But you are not very calm. Charging over like this, you are too impulsive."

"Others could charge over before because I suppressed the Law of Crystal here. But as for you, a mere Spirit Map user, you had to stick your head out and bump into it."

"Of course, I'm not mocking you. After all, any normal man would find it hard to stay calm when he discovers his wife has stabbed him in the back."

"But then again, you weren't very kind when you wanted to get promoted, get rich, and change wives. A just cause enjoys abundant support, while an unjust cause finds little. The heavenly principles circulate, and retribution is swift."

"Take my advice, be more generous, and don't be too obsessed with temporary gains and losses."

"Wives can be remarried, and sons can be reborn. While you still have strength, turn around, leave Dongyu, summarize your experience, and worst comes to worst, start over!"

"If you refuse to repent, you will only be more miserable..."

Before he finished speaking, Xu Chaoyang spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted directly.

Governor Xu Mingyang had also suddenly raised his hand and waved forward, and a large white palm print pushed over from the air with a bang.

However, crystal light flickered in the mid-air again.

Although those crystal lights were constantly being crushed by the large palm, breaking through more than a hundred steps, the palm print was also rapidly dimming and decomposing, unable to cross the last few dozen steps.

Tang Long shook his head with a smile, "Not listening to advice is just asking for trouble."

Speaking of which, he raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

Governor Xu Mingyang's expression changed suddenly.

Because following this snap, the crystals under their feet actually surged with chaotic spirit energy and exploded one after another in the blink of an eye.

The chain explosions formed dazzling spirit lights of various colors, gathering into a storm, directly submerging the Xu father and son.

Governor Gao Gong, Governor Huang Weiyi, and others also immediately linked their Spirit Astral, setting up an astral wall to deal with the impact of this Spirit Blast.

A few seconds later, when Governor Xu Mingyang carried Xu Chaoyang back to the crowd in a sorry state, Xu Chaoyang was already suffering from multiple wounds, and countless wounds on his body were bleeding.

Even Governor Xu Mingyang himself had half of his black body showing signs of melting.

Tang Long shook his head, secretly lamenting that his true strength was still a bit lacking.

Although he had gained huge benefits from his trip to the Ice Wind Realm and even killed Badamon, who was at the Peak of the Huagai Realm, with the help of the Mad God's divine form.

But once the divine form faded, his own Law power was still very weak.

Even with Sun Spirit Energy, after pouring out energy beyond his own load, the portion he could control still had limited power.

With the Crystal Spirit, he could temporarily influence the Law of Crystal here, but the large trap he had spent so much effort to set up didn't pose much threat to a real Huagai Realm expert.

It seems that in the end, he still has to fight with real swords and guns.

Thinking of this, Tang Long turned and stepped onto the altar, then quickly disappeared with Zheng Buwan and the others.

Seeing Tang Long and the others disappear, Governor Xu Mingyang immediately thought of something, becoming even more furious and desperate.

"Everyone, attack! Blast all these ice crystals to pieces for me!"

"Hurry!"
