Chapter 960: The Spiritual Clouds and Smoke
Young Master Xu didn't understand what the man said, but he could understand the meaning behind it. He was horrified to find that he was wearing a dark blue official uniform, and all the people around him were gone!
Now he was a little panicked. In addition to this, there was a deep fear in his heart. He didn't know what was going on in front of him, but the person in front of him kept urging him.

He wanted to turn around and run back, but he knew in his heart that if he didn't follow at this time, something bad might happen, so he had to bite the bullet and move forward.

After climbing a small slope, the man waved the whisk in his hand as if driving him forward. He took two steps forward, but when he saw that the man was not catching up, he wanted to go back, but he saw two warriors whose faces could not be seen standing on both sides of the slope, one carrying a golden hammer on his shoulder and the other holding a short axe, and they seemed to be staring at him.

He swallowed his saliva, entered the palace through the side door of the main hall, and as he walked along the long road, many people holding lanterns joined him along the way.

He was terrified and lowered his head, not daring to look around or speak. He just kept walking forward. After passing the first palace gate, he walked forward and saw rows of warriors holding ceremonial weapons on the square. At this moment, they were all motionless and silent like statues.

He took a glance and quickly looked away. After walking for a while, a large upward slope appeared in front of him. Here the team suddenly slowed down, as if someone in front was checking something. He could finally take a breath.

But before he could rest assured for long, an angry voice suddenly came from above: "This man is impersonating a court official, behead him!"

After a while, another shrill voice sounded: "Another person pretending to be an official. This is a disrespect to Your Majesty. Push him away and execute him!"

"cut!"

"cut!"

"cut!"

The voices from above came one after another, and then Young Master Xu was shocked to see that one person after another was pushed down by the warriors. They were all his companions who came with him, but at this moment they were strangely not shouting, but had no expression on their faces.

After pushing him down the steps, the warriors raised their swords and swung them. In an instant, a familiar head fell to the ground, which made him shudder.

Immediately afterwards, the dozen or so people who were kneeling there were all beheaded in an instant, with their heads and bodies severed in half, lying in a pool of blood.

Young Master Xu smelled a bloody smell and felt nauseous immediately. He didn't dare to make a sound. He could only cover his mouth and force himself not to vomit.

But at this moment, as the team moved forward, he suddenly realized that there was no one in front of him. Just when it was his turn to step forward, someone said, "Why don't you step forward for a body check?"

Everyone present looked at him in unison. The scene was extremely strange.

Young Master Xu was trembling all over for a moment. At this moment, he heard two bangs outside, like the sound of drums, and those people seemed to be looking towards the hall.

At this moment, he dared not stay here any longer, and ran back regardless of everything. Those who looked at him coldly, but no one chased him. Only the warriors in the square began to move towards him, but after a few steps, the whole queue was pushed apart from the middle, and a figure rushed forward and grabbed the panicked and struggling Master Xu. The latter waved his hands and feet in fear, "Get out, get out, get out of here!"

The man held him down and said, "Master Xu, it's me."

When Master Xu heard this, he looked at the person in front of him and found that it was Mr. Qiao. He burst into tears of joy as if he had seen a relative and said, "Mr. Qiao, Mr. Qiao, it's you. That's great, that's great..."

Mr. Qiao apologized, grabbed him by the waist and held him in his arms, then ran out quickly. Although he ran very fast, he ran very steadily and did not make Young Master Xu feel any discomfort. He was even able to speak.

"Mr. Qiao, what are these things?"

Mr. Qiao replied, "This thing is called a spiritual realm abroad, and it seems to be a 'ghost cave' in China. What we saw was probably a reappearance of the past, but we participated in it in person. Does Master Xu know about simulation?"

"Yes, I know. I've seen it." Young Master Xu had been in a simulated scene created by field creatures before, and the feeling was somewhat similar to this.

"The ghost den is somewhat similar to this, but they don't rely on field creatures. It's more like combining anomalies with esoteric rituals. Here, some things make no sense. When they want to kill you, you may not even be able to resist."

Master Xu shuddered again when he thought of the scene just now. He asked anxiously, "Mr. Qiao, we got out. Then, where are the others?"

Mr. Qiao shook his head and said, "Let's take care of ourselves first." Others did not have his spiritual strength and could only sink into the ghost den.

However, he would not abandon Young Master Xu. The young master's uncle said that he did not care about his nephew's life or death, but if he left this young master alone, he probably would not mind being held accountable for his dereliction of duty.

He also comforted Master Xu and said, "Master Xu, don't worry, not everyone will fall into this trap. For example, Mr. Fan is a capable person. I didn't see him. It's either because he didn't enter here or he probably found a way to hide."

"Is that so..." Young Master Xu was about to say something, but suddenly a look of fear appeared on his face. "Mr. Qiao, front, front."

Mr. Qiao looked over and saw a team of five horseback warriors in front of him, covered in iron armor from head to toe. His expression changed. "Xiaoguo Cavalry Guards..."

This is equivalent to an elite warrior of the third level. In the den of ghosts, everyone can compete with him, and they are actually a team.

He said decisively, "Master Xu, stay away. These people are very powerful. I may not be able to take care of you later."

He swung his hand and threw Young Master Xu far away. The latter rolled on the ground, then crawled up and ran out.

Mr. Qiao looked serious and took a stance, staring at the group of people. Even though these things might be illusions, if they were killed here, they would really be killed.

That team of warriors immediately rode forward, forming a horizontal column with large intervals between them and running straight towards him. At first, it was fine when these warriors stopped, but when they charged forward, with only five horses, they had the momentum of thousands of troops rushing forward, and it seemed as if they could crush everything in their way into meat paste.

Mr. Qiao's breathing became rapid, and just when he was about to fight to the death, there was a loud bang, and a dazzling light seemed to flash in the darkness, and the five cavalrymen in front of him were torn apart in an instant, and both the men and the horses exploded into countless pieces.

Mr. Qiao simply covered his face. The scattered objects, accompanied by the strong wind pressure, hit his body and then flew outwards.

When the gust of air passed, he looked again and saw no brave cavalry guards, only a pile of scattered charred bones on the ground.

He raised his head suddenly and looked forward.

He saw a tall figure in a smock walking towards him, with a red scarf tied around his neck fluttering in the swirling air currents. As the person got closer, the magnificent palaces around him gradually lost their original solemn and magnificent appearance and became decayed and dilapidated.

Young Master Xu found himself lying among a pile of dry bones. He cursed a few words and pushed them away, but the flying dust got all over his face and he started coughing.

Mr. Qiao looked at the figure gradually approaching, took a deep breath, clasped his fists and said: "I am Qiao Qianli from Longyou Dao, thank you for saving me, may I ask who you are..."

Chen Chuan came closer. When he came here just now, he found that someone else had also come in. This might be because the ceremony was affected when they entered here. He said, "My last name is Chen. Where did you come from?"

When Mr. Qiao heard this, he knew that the person in front of him must have come in through the main entrance. He was unsure of the other party's attitude and didn't know how to answer for a while.

When Master Xu saw this, he immediately stood up and said, "We came in from the route opened up by the Longyou Road Expedition Group. I wonder if you have seen my great uncle on the way? He is the chief inspector of Longyou Road, and he is also here."

Chen Chuan glanced at him. This man was a little clever. He was afraid that he would be disadvantageous to them, so he introduced himself first. However, he didn't care about other people being here. This place was not his. It was their own ability to come in.

When he came here, he checked the situation in Longyou Road. There was only one fighter here, named Xu Mutang, who did not hold an official position. The chief inspector was just a title.

He said, "Is Mr. Xu here too? I didn't see him when I came over."

Mr. Qiao said: "I was hired by Young Master Xu to escort them in for the expedition, but I didn't expect to encounter the situation in front of me."

Chen Chuan asked again and learned that there were about 300 people when they came in, but now they are all lost. He warned them: "You two, there are many dangers in here. Don't run around. Find a place to hide first."

Mr. Qiao immediately said, "Thank you for saving us just now, sir. We will not run around or touch anything here."

Chen Chuan nodded and walked towards the main hall that had already appeared in front of him.

Master Xu watched him gradually walk away and whispered, "Mr. Qiao, that is..."

Mr. Qiao said with awe in his voice: "That should be a fighter." He thought for a moment, "So young, and his last name is Chen, could it be..."

His heart couldn't help but skip a beat. Could it be this person?

The news about the central city of Jibei Province was a hot topic some time ago, and the director of the Defense Department of Jibei Province also became famous, especially the active consciousness of the Zhenping Council. This caused the municipal council in Longyou Province to be extremely nervous, and they were trying to find ways to upgrade their active consciousness. This matter caused a big stir.

He thought to himself, if it really is this person, I hope there won’t be any conflict with Old Man Xu... I don’t know who is stronger between these two?
