With a warehouse full of supplies, I stood alone as king in this chaotic world, gun in hand.

"So you're from the Zhenyuan Prince's Mansion of the Western Yan Kingdom." The assassin looked at Nangong Wu, then at the Gatling gun on the ground.

"I've heard that Princess Runing of the Zhenyuan Prince's Mansion is not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also possesses a formidable weapon. She once single-handedly traveled to the Eastern Jin Kingdom."

In just one night, the entire palace of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the residence of the Prince of Wu were destroyed. No one in the palace or the Prince of Wu survived. Tonight, I have the good fortune to witness it firsthand; those rumors are indeed true.

Nangong Wu looked up at him and asked, "And who are you?"

"My name is Mei Wuchen!" The assassin Mei Wuchen cupped his hands in greeting. "I am deeply grateful for your help tonight!"

"You really should thank us, otherwise! You'd be dead tonight." Nangong Wu didn't mince words with him. "Your martial arts are superb, may I ask who your master is?"

With such strong skills, Master must be a very powerful person.

"I have no master." Mei Wuchen's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness, as if he had thought of something.

"I founded the Blood Moon Society. From now on, I, Mei Wuchen, and the Blood Moon Society will be at the beck and call of Princess Runing to repay the life-saving grace."

"Are you the leader of the Blood Moon Society?"

Nangong Wu and Beichen Yan were both surprised, never expecting that the person they saved would be him.

Previously, he had searched high and low without finding it, but tonight he was saved by sheer chance.

"It seems we've crossed swords twice; what a coincidence!" Bei Chenyan said.

"We've clashed twice?" Mei Wuchen asked, puzzled. "When did I offend you two?"

"Last night, we were a little interested in the Blood Moon Society and wanted to pay them a visit, but we didn't expect that as soon as we arrived at the Bright Moon Inn, we were mistaken for assassins by you!"

"And tonight, we entered Changyang Temple from the back mountain, and we almost got hit by two of your hidden weapons as soon as we climbed up the mountain," Bei Chenyan said.

"So those two were you." Mei Wuchen was also surprised. "Changyang Temple is now a mixed bag, and I had to be careful. I didn't expect to offend you two. I'm truly sorry."

"It's alright, we became friends after our fight! It just means we're destined to be together." Nangong Wu nodded.

Aiqi suddenly said, "Master, this is bad! There's poisonous smoke!"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Wu, Beichen Yan, and Mei Wuchen immediately held their breath.

"That damned Ling Yangzi actually dared to release poisonous smoke at you, he's despicable and shameless!" Ai Qi was furious.

Nangong Wu used her mind to take out three gas masks from her spatial storage, and put one on herself first.

Upon seeing this, Bei Chenyan also took a mask and put it on.

Seeing Mei Wuchen standing there motionless, Ai Qi picked up a mask and said to him:

"Young Master Mei, this toxic smoke is highly toxic. Even if you hold your breath, the smoke can still enter your nasal cavity and ears, damaging your respiratory system."

I advise you to wear this gas mask for safety.

"Then why aren't you wearing them?" Mei Wuchen looked at Ai Qi and Ai Lin, seeing how relaxed they were, not at all afraid of the poisonous smoke.

"Us? Haha..." Aiqi chuckled twice and told him, "Because we're not human! So we're not afraid of poison."

She was telling the truth, but Mei Wuchen thought they were belittling him. Seeing that Nangong Wu and Bei Chenyan had both put them on, she nodded, "But I don't know how to wear this..."

"That's no problem, I'll help you put it on." Aiqi pointed to the mask on his face, "but you have to take it off."

"Okay." Mei Wuchen took off his mask.

Aiqi was stunned when she saw his face, but she didn't say anything and helped Mei Wuchen put on the gas mask.

Because Ai Qi was blocking their view, Nan Gongwu and Bei Chenyan couldn't see his face clearly.

Interfering with Eileen's flute playing, the power of the bell's sound diminished, and the white mist thinned.

Nangong Wu felt her head wasn't hurting as much anymore, so she sat cross-legged on the ground, took out a talisman and quickly began to draw it. The purpose of this talisman was to interfere with the perception of the person setting up the array, thereby helping Ai Qi to counter the array plate.

Aiqi helped Mei Wuchen put on his mask and continued setting up the formation.

"Master, the structure, pattern, and key points of Ling Yangzi's bewitching array are different from the one we learned. It seems that he has set up more than one key point, increasing the difficulty by two levels. I am not able to figure out its operating rules for the time being."

"Let me do it." Nangong Wu gestured to her.

Aiqi is a robot and can only analyze things based on the data stored in her brain. Her advantage is that she is efficient. However, Ling Yangzi's bewitching array has been modified, and the multiple array points are a bit difficult for her.

"Then let's see what you do." Aiqi handed her the Bagua tortoise shell.

Nangong Wu first carefully observed Ling Yangzi's formation and discovered that this bewitching formation was based on the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams, with three array eyes containing deadly moves, and also contained poisonous smoke, attempting to trap or poison them inside.

However, no matter how much the formation is improved, there will always be flaws, rules, and traces to be found, such as (corresponding to the mutual restraint of the five elements, the weakening at specific times, etc.).

After she finished reading it, she began to study the Bagua tortoise shell, looking for weak points.

Half an hour later, Nangong Wu's lips curled up slightly.

Bei Chenyan, standing nearby, noticed her staring intently at the tortoise shell and said, "Let's use rockets!"

Rockets are powerful enough to break the formation; if that doesn't work, we can use cannons.

"No." Nangong Wu shook her head. The cannon could forcibly break the formation, but it couldn't harm the person who set it up.

She intends to use a formation to break the formation and cause Ling Yangzi to suffer a backlash.

Seeing her confident demeanor, Bei Chenyan was also curious to see how she would break this formation with three key points.

He had studied formations with his master before, and in recent years he had also studied Qimen Dunjia with Nangong Wu, but he still couldn't break Ling Yangzi's formations.

Nangong Wu took out two more Bagua tortoise shells and, together with the previous one, placed the three tortoise shells on the three array eyes respectively, and rearranged the layout based on "using their array as the basis to set up my own".

The three array eyes represent the three array centers, and the operation of the entire grand array is closely related to them. Nangong Wu used the reverse utilization loop to set up sub-arrays, thereby countering and breaking the array.

Outside the array.

Ling Yangzi remained standing on the wall, his eyes fixed on the formation.

Almost everyone from Changyang Temple came out; there were as many as 30,000 to 40,000 people.

Changyang Temple already had more than 10,000 disciples, but because of the martial arts tournament, branches from various countries came, bringing the total number to more than 20,000.

Ling Yangzi sensed that the power of the formation was weakening, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He hadn't expected that the poison smoke hadn't killed these people, but had actually tried to break his formation.

"Men, release more poisonous smoke!" he ordered again.

He was very confident in his formation, and no one had been able to break it so far, not even Nangong Wu.

"yes!"

The disciples responded and went to prepare the poison smoke.
