Chapter 1,370: Ambush

"Minister Xu."

Zhang Tianhua, the mayor of Guyue City, saw Xu Guoqing and his mother appear in the teleportation array and stepped forward immediately.

He had received the news that Xu Guoqing would come today.

Xu Guoqing shook his head and smiled: "City Lord Zhang, I am no longer the minister, just call me by my name."

But Zhang Tianhua shook his head: "Minister Xu, in our hearts you will always be the minister. Jiang Shaotian just used a conspiracy. I really don't know what the emperor thinks."

Zhang Tianhua's words actually implied his dissatisfaction with Jiang Bi'an. If it were the previous Xu Guoqing, he would definitely correct Zhang Tianhua, but now Xu Guoqing said nothing.

Zhang Tianhua's side is actually a remote city. Naturally, he doesn't understand Jiang Bi'an's actions.

"Minister Xu, Loulan City is not a good place, and there has been a sandstorm in the Loulan Desert recently, which is also very dangerous." Zhang Tianhua said.

Loulan City is a place where people who have offended high-level people are usually assigned. It is a place of suffering, with many things to do and great danger.

Zhang Tianhua did not understand why an absolute high-level person like Xu Guoqing would be sent to a place like Loulan City, and was personally sent by the emperor Jiang Bi'an.

Zhang Tianhua did not understand the open and secret struggles between the high-level people, but he understood the contribution Xu Guoqing made to China.

"When will this sandstorm stop?" Xu Guoqing asked.

Zhang Tianhua shook his head: "It's really unclear. This sandstorm has just started. According to past experience, it will last at least two months."

"Two months?" Xu Guoqing frowned.

Jiang Bi'an meant to let him take office within ten days. If he did not take the teleportation array, it would be fine. Now he took the teleportation array and could definitely arrive within ten days.

The most important thing is that if he did not arrive in Loulan City within ten days, he did not know what conspiracy Jiang Shaotian would plot against him.

"City Lord Zhang, is there no way to get through?" Xu Guoqing asked.

"Yes, there is, that is the Loulan Ancient Road, but due to the sandstorm, it is not very easy to walk." Zhang Tianhua said.

"It's OK as long as it can be walked." Xu Guoqing nodded.

"Well, City Lord Zhang, just give me a map from Guyue City to Loulan City."

Zhang Tianhua nodded, turned to his followers behind him and ordered: "Go get a map from our city to Loulan City, the more detailed the better."

"Yes!"

After a while, Zhang Tianhua's followers took a detailed map and gave it to Xu Guoqing, who nodded after receiving it.

"Thank you, City Lord Zhang, I will set off now." Xu Guoqing said.

Hearing Xu Guoqing's words, Zhang Tianhua was stunned and asked, "Minister Xu, are you so anxious? I'll ask the people below to prepare. You can stay here for a day, so that I can do my best to be a good host."

"Thank you for your kindness, City Lord Zhang. I still need to go there earlier." Xu Guoqing said.

Zhang Tianhua saw that Xu Guoqing had made up his mind, so he no longer forced it, and said, "Be careful along the way."

Although the sandstorm has a great impact on people, Xu Guoqing is a ninth-level warrior, and even with his old mother, it is enough to pass the sandstorm.

After walking out of Guyue City, Xu Guoqing took out his silver spear, and a silver light curtain enveloped Xu Guoqing and his mother.

This light curtain directly isolated the surrounding sand and dust outside.

Then a warm airflow carried Xu's mother to fly slowly. Such precise control obviously consumed Xu Guoqing's physical strength.

Xu Guoqing looked around vigilantly, not daring to relax for a moment.

"Son, otherwise you can put me down." Xu's mother said.

At this point, how could Xu's mother not see what her son was thinking? The real danger on this road has just begun.

Xu's mother never asked her son what happened and why he was suddenly sent to Loulan City.

She believed everything her son did.

"Mother, it's okay. We will be in Loulan City soon." Xu Guoqing smiled and shook his head.

But the dust in front suddenly stopped. Although this is the Loulan Ancient Road, such a quiet scene is definitely unusual.

Xu Guoqing stopped and saw a group of masked black-clothed people slowly walking out around him.

"Minister Xu, I'm afraid you will never be able to reach the Loulan Ancient City in this life." The masked man in the lead said lightly.

Each of these people held a weapon in his hand, and it was obvious that they were not good.

Xu's mother, who was standing next to Xu Guoqing, did not have the slightest fear on her face. Instead, she looked at everything in front of her calmly.

"Did Jiang Shaotian ask you to come?"

Xu Guoqing stood there with a spear and said.

"Jiang Shaotian? Is he qualified to order me? It's just that our purpose is the same." The masked man in the lead said lightly.

"No point in talking, let's fight!"

Xu Guoqing held his head high, his face full of fighting spirit.

For a moment, a soaring momentum emanated from Xu Guoqing.

The masked men couldn't help but step back.

"The Ten Great Gods of War are indeed worthy of their reputation."

The masked man said solemnly.

These masked men were none other than the rebel cultivators who had been possessed by demons.

The leader was Zuo Junwei.

Xu Guoqing looked around. There were about twenty masked men here, but he didn't know how strong they were.

"Go!"

Zuo Junwei didn't want to waste time talking to Xu Guoqing.

Xu Guoqing must have consumed a lot of energy along the way with his mother. Now is the best opportunity for them to launch an attack.

"Hmph!" Xu Guoqing held his spear horizontally in front of him.

More than twenty masked men rushed towards Xu Guoqing.

From the aura emanating from these people, Xu Guoqing knew that these twenty-odd people all had the strength of the Nascent Soul Stage.

"Let me show you the strength of a ninth-level warrior!"

Xu Guoqing raised his spear, and the masked man who rushed to the front was instantly pierced through the chest by Xu Guoqing's spear.

"A bunch of rats!"

However, the masked man did not fall down, but instead grabbed Xu Guoqing's silver spear tightly.

"What's going on!" Xu Guoqing was shocked.

Zuo Junwei under the mask had a smile on his face. These were all puppets. It would not work to just pierce the chest!

Xu Guoqing obviously also discovered this problem.

He turned his spear, and the puppet that was holding Xu Guoqing's spear was instantly smashed to pieces by the spear.

"Minister Xu, you are so powerful. I wonder how many you can block?" Zuo Junwei clapped his hands.

More than a dozen puppets appeared around again.

Xu Guoqing looked solemn. If his mother was not here, he would have no problem dealing with these, but he still needed to protect his mother!
