Chapter 240
After the Lord of Shengwu City swallowed the Nine-Turn Holy Spirit Pill, his body was quickly enveloped by thick blood mist.
These blood mists seemed to have amazing activity. Not only did they not spread outward, but they continued to flow into the body of the Lord of Shengwu City.
Under the nourishment of this strange blood mist, the aging and decaying body of the Lord of Shengwu City also regained its youthful vitality at a speed visible to the naked eye.
His white hair turned black again in an instant, his wrinkled face became smooth again, and his sallow skin gradually returned to its normal color.
And this was only a change in appearance. Under the powerful medicinal effect of the Nine-Turn Holy Spirit Pill, his body underwent an amazing transformation. The injuries that were difficult to improve in the past seemed to be recovering and getting better.
With all these, his whole body was recovering at an amazing speed.
The effect of this Nine-Turn Holy Spirit Pill was far beyond the expectations of the Lord of Shengwu City. He couldn't help but be completely immersed in it, feeling the changes in his body bit by bit.
However, at this moment.
The six disciples who had been facing away from him and loyally protecting him turned around at the same time.
At this moment, the excitement and excitement on their faces had disappeared, replaced by a gloomy and fierce look that could not be concealed.
Then they looked at each other and nodded slightly. No words were needed, everything was self-evident.
The next second, a black dagger appeared in each of their hands, with a blue luster on it, obviously tempered with poison.
As they input their magic power into it, these black daggers not only did not shine like ordinary Taoist soldiers, but became more obscure and dim, and seemed to have become transparent. Obviously, they were specially made assassination weapons.
"Go!"
Accompanied by the three leading disciples' low shout, the six people quickly rushed up together, and appeared in front of the Lord of Shengwu City in a blink of an eye.
Then they did not hesitate at all, and the black daggers in their hands stabbed into different vital positions of the Lord of Shengwu City.
Like the daggers in the hands of the three disciples, they stabbed directly into the heart of the Lord of Shengwu City.
"Boom--"
The terrifying energy suddenly burst out, and in an instant, all of them were blown away.
The Lord of Shengwu City opened his eyes and looked at the six poisonous daggers that were deeply pierced into his body. The terrible toxins spread wildly in his body, and then looked at the six most trusted disciples who were blown away in front of him. A trace of disbelief flashed in his eyes, and he asked softly: "Why?"
Faced with his question, the six people did not dare to answer, but retreated involuntarily.
It is one thing for them to make a decision in their hearts, and it is another thing to really face their master.
The Lord of Shengwu City resisted the feeling of his body about to collapse, gritted his teeth and stood up, widened his eyes and shouted at the few people: "Why!!!"
"You dare to do such a thing, don't you dare to admit it?"
He was not surprised to be betrayed by anyone in the world, but he really couldn't understand his six direct disciples.
He had almost given them everything he could give, why would they betray him?
Under his roar, several people finally raised their heads, no longer as submissive as before, and said one after another:
"Master, you forced us to do this. You are crazy. We are still young and have a bright future. Shengwu City will flourish in our hands in the future. I really don't want to be buried with you!"
"Yes, Master, you are too paranoid and never care about our ideas. The eldest and second brothers died because they listened to you too much and obeyed you. Now it's not enough for you to kill them, you want to kill us, we can only fight back!"
"And most importantly, do you really think that this Nine-Turn Holy Spirit Pill can make you recover? On the contrary, if you don't take this pill, you may be able to barely hold on for some time, but if you take this pill, your fate is already determined. We just don't want to go all the way with you."
Listening to the "heartfelt words" of these disciples, the face of the Lord of Shengwu City changed again and again, especially when he heard the last sentence, he raised his head abruptly, Two terrifying rays of light suddenly burst out from those old eyes.
"What do you mean by this?"
"You will know soon, old man, set up the formation!"
As soon as the voice fell, the six of them quickly set up the formation. As the strongest people in Shengwu City second only to the Lord of Shengwu City, the six of them had reached the level ofAt the peak level of the Holy King Realm, with the blessing of the formation, the power of the six people is twisted into one, which can be compared with the strong people in the Holy Emperor Realm.
Seeing this scene, the Lord of Shengwu City couldn't help but flash a trace of surprise in his eyes: "I didn't expect you to have such means. It seems that you have hidden a lot in front of your master."
"Since you have made up your mind to part ways with your master, then your master will teach you another lesson today. The strong people in the Holy Emperor Realm are always the strong people in the Holy Emperor Realm. Even the weakest strong people in the Holy Emperor Realm are not something that a mere Holy King can contend with."
The next second, boom-
The Lord of Shengwu City, who was obviously extremely weak and even seriously injured by six poisonous daggers, suddenly erupted with terrifying strength again, just like a volcano suddenly exploded, the terrifying heat wave surged in all directions, and the power of the law was entangled and strangled. In a blink of an eye, the six-person formation was forcibly blasted apart.
At the same time, the six people were also severely injured, and they all spurted blood and fell to the ground, their eyes full of horror.
They thought that their master was now seriously injured, and the six of them should be able to compete with him, but they did not expect that the result would be extremely desperate.
The Lord of Shengwu City looked down at the six of them, looking at their miserable appearance, there was no pride in his eyes, nor any joy, but only unprecedented pain.
He took a deep breath and quickly said coldly: "Tell me, who is instigating you behind the scenes? You six alone should not have the courage to betray your master and ancestors."
Hearing this, the six people's faces suddenly changed.
Then they looked at each other, but they did not dare to say the name of that person.
However, at this time, with a slight "creak", the door of the hall was pushed open from the outside, and then an old man with a fairy-like appearance walked in step by step.
Then he looked at the Lord of Shengwu City, smiled and asked: "Are you looking for me, Lord Lord?"
