Xiaoyaozi was wearing a bamboo hat, and Xueji put his hands behind his back and responded, "I rushed over when I saw the movement here. Fortunately, I didn't arrive too late."
Wei Zhuang next to him looked at Xiaoyaozi without any change in his expression, and Dianqing was even more silent.
Gai Nie cupped his fists and saluted, "Thank you, Mr. Xiaoyao, for your help."
"Mr. Gai, you're so polite. Even if I'm not there, nothing will happen." Xiaoyaozi looked at Dianqing, who was bigger than the three of them combined, "This is the one who is known as 'Bronze head, iron arm, a hundred battles.
Mr. Dianqing, a disciple of Wushang's Armored Sect, right?"
Xiaoyaozi is also very aware of how serious the ceremony is. It's really no big deal if he just makes a little noise.
Jianqing nodded in response, remaining silent.
Xiaoyaozi didn't care. After all, our positions were different, so there was no need to get too close.
At this time, Wei Zhuang's attention turned to the ruins in a sea of fire, and he said in a deep voice, "This kind of fire won't kill him."
Obviously, Wei Zhuang still wants to continue chasing Zhenri.
It's rare to catch the tail of this No. 1 killer in the world. It would be a pity not to take advantage of the opportunity and take him down in one go.
Xiaoyaozi heard this and asked curiously, "How many of them are facing each other?"
"The sun is covered by a snare." Gai Nie replied succinctly.
"It's the Eight Swords of Yue Wang again..." Xiaoyaozi said with emotion, "I heard that this one is the second most powerful person in Luowang after the leader Zhao Gao."
"Hmph!" Wei Zhuang sneered and said, "A dog will be a dog after all."
There is only one person in the entire network - that is Zhao Gao. Everyone else is a tool, a slave, a lackey... Anyway, they can be anything, but they are not human beings.
Zhenri, the so-called second-in-command, is no exception.
Xiaoyaozi couldn't help stroking his beard and laughing when he heard this. Wei Zhuang's speech was always this crisp and harsh.
Gai Nie brought the topic back on track, "He shouldn't have gone far, chase him!"
Then Gai Nie and the others began to search for traces around them, trying to find an escape route for Hidden Sun.
The ceremony did not interfere with these, and directly said goodbye and left.
Covering the sun was not his goal. Since Zhang Han had been rescued, he had to rush to join Lian Yi and the others as soon as possible.
Anyway, he is not the only one who can deal with Zhenri.
Without him, there is more Xiaoyaozi. There are still three masters waiting for Zhenri. As long as Zhenri is caught by the tail, he will definitely not be able to escape.
Of course, Xiaoyaozi's appearance was a bit unexpected, and Dianqing had some doubts about it.
But he didn't worry too much about this.
Whether there is a problem with Xiaoyaozi or not, it is up to Gui Gu and Zongheng to judge and identify it.
If the two people in Guigu can't see the problem, he can't either, and there's no point in thinking about it.
Back to Gai Nie and the others, Wei Zhuang, who was full of murderous intent, quickly found some clues and took the lead and chased after them. Gai Nie Xiaoyaozi followed closely behind, and the three of them got into the nearby forest together.
Following the traces, Wei Zhuang quickly discovered a human figure.
At this time, the sky was completely dark, and it was impossible to see who was blurry in the woods.
But Wei Zhuang doesn't care who it is.
If this spot appeared in this place, he wouldn't believe it if he said it was a passer-by, so he had to chop it down first.
The cold light suddenly flashed, the shark's teeth were unsheathed, and Wei Zhuang took action with all his strength. The cold sword wind wrapped the fallen leaves in the forest and pulled out several long 'ribbons', heading towards the figure's head.
The opponent also looked back at this moment, raised the sword in his hand, and the same sword light flashed past.
clang!
The sword light flashed, sparks flew everywhere, the sword energy surged and blew away, and the two people passed each other.
With the sparks generated by the collision and friction of the swords just now, both of them could see each other clearly.
The first thought that came to Wei Zhuang's mind was - he really killed the wrong person.
Xiao Meng, who was attacked for no apparent reason, was thinking that Wei Zhuang was going crazy.
"It's you?"
Wei Zhuang stood still and put away his shark teeth, using a question to cover up his embarrassment.
Although he didn't know exactly what the relationship was between Gu Xun and Xiaomeng, the new head of the Tianzong, he knew that the two must be related just by seeing that the latter dared to provoke Gu Xun wantonly in Songhai City and was fine.
Then she can't be his target.
Uh...it's hard to say.
Thinking of the Frightened Salamander, Wei Zhuang didn't dare to make a conclusion, but in any case, there was no need for the two sides to fight.
Faced with Wei Zhuang's nonsense, Xiaomeng calmly put away Qiuli and asked in a calm tone, "Are you possessed?"
This is a relatively euphemistic way of saying it. Translated, it means asking Wei Zhuang why he went insane.
Wei Zhuang's face turned dark when he heard this, but he still maintained restraint and did not take action.
If someone else talks to him like this, he will be waiting for his hair to be combed with shark teeth!
"Why are you here?" Wei Zhuang asked another question.
"Boring." Xiaomeng replied with two words, turned around and left.
She only talks nonsense to people she wants to talk nonsense to, and Wei Zhuang is not one of them.
At this time, Gai Nie also happened to catch up and appeared in front of Xiaomeng.
He was even more unclear about the relationship between Gu Xun and Xiao Meng, but almost everyone knew what happened in the Little Sage Village in Songhai City, and he was no exception.
Therefore, his attitude towards Xiaomeng was also very gentle, and he only mentioned their purpose:
"We are tracking a trap killer. I wonder if Mr. Meng will find anything?"
Xiao Meng stared at Gai Nie with her cold gray eyes and answered concisely in one word:
"without."
Wei Zhuang frowned when he heard this and couldn't help asking the question again, "So why are you here?"
Xiaomeng flicked Qiuli, put the whisk on the sword's head on her arm, and replied in a neutral tone, "You talk too much nonsense."
She has never been patient with strangers.
Wei Zhuang is not a pure stranger, but he is not much worse.
Wei Zhuang wanted to take action after hearing this.
He has encountered an opponent more difficult to deal with than himself.
If it weren't for Gu Xun's relationship in the middle, given his temperament, even if Xiaomeng was not his enemy, Gao Luo would still have been beaten.
Fortunately, in addition to Gu Xun's relationship, there is also a dedicated peacemaker here and now.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Xiaoyaozi walked out of the forest and said peacefully, "Please don't do anything, don't hurt the harmony."
Although Xiaoyaozi also knew that there was a high probability that they would not start a fight, the atmosphere at the scene was indeed very tense, and he still had to mediate it.
Xiaoyaozi didn't care about Xiaomeng when she came up. Anyway, she didn't care whether others greeted her or not. Instead, she gave Wei Zhuang a fist salute and solemnly introduced Xiaomeng when everyone knew each other. In theory, Wei Zhuang
It was the first time I met Xiaomeng:
"Brother Wei Zhuang, this is the new head of our Taoist Heavenly Sect, Master Xiaomeng. In terms of seniority, he can be regarded as my junior sister. We are not enemies."
The first few words are all nonsense, the focus is on the last few words, which are used to lighten the atmosphere.
Wei Zhuang glanced sideways at Xiaomeng and said coldly, "I just want to know why she appears in this place at this time."
Even though Xiaoyaozi was recovering in the middle, Xiaomeng remained indifferent to Wei Zhuang's questioning again. He held Qiuli and looked at the moon to himself, paying no attention to anyone.
Xiaoyaozi was helpless when he saw this, and could only say a few nice things, "My junior sister is arrogant by nature. I hope Brother Wei Zhuang doesn't mind."
"You don't need to explain it to me." Xiaomeng didn't appreciate this.
It's not that she's ignorant, it's just...that's her temperament.
She really dislikes people she doesn't like from head to toe, and she will never hide her attitude.
To Xiaoyaozi, these were all trivial problems. Quan pretended that he didn't hear it and brought the topic back to business, "I discovered something else around. Come with me, you two."
After hearing this, Wei Zhuang Gai Nie naturally did not want to continue arguing with Xiao Meng, and decisively followed Xiaoyao Zi to another place.
Xiao Meng, on the other hand, seemed to be interested now and followed him.
Others might feel a little embarrassed, but Xiaomeng would not be bothered by such worldly emotions at all.
She wanted to see what Xiaoyaozi discovered, so she followed him. As for the conflict between herself and Xiaoyaozi, that was another matter.
The place Xiaoyaozi mentioned was not far away, and the group arrived quickly.
What caught the eyes of Gai Nie and others were corpses all over the place... not only on the ground, but also on the trees.
They also recognized the identities of these corpses at a glance - it was obvious that almost all of them were members of the Shadow Guard.
"Most of them are Zhang Han's men." Gai Nie was the first to speak.
Wei Zhuang followed up and said, "It seems that the Shadow Guards suffered heavy casualties."
Xiaoyaozi stroked his beard and nodded, saying, "This is a power struggle within the empire. The Shadow Guard and Luo Wang are killing each other."
"Ha!" Wei Zhuang smiled contemptuously, "The Shadow Guard and Luo Wang are never our own."
Xiaoyaozi declined to comment on Wei Zhuang's statement.
To him, Luo Wang and the Shadow Guard are not the same group, but to outsiders, they are both part of the empire.
This is cannibalism.
Xiaoyaozi's eyes turned to Xiaomeng, "The reason why Junior Sister Xiaomeng is here is for Zhang Han's safety, right?"
Xiao Meng walked through the many corpses and replied casually, "You meddle in too many other things."
Xiaoyaozi was already calm about this level of retaliation, and calmly followed up and continued, "Gui Gu and the two arrived in time, I think Zhang Han escaped."
Xiaomeng ignored these words.
Of course she knew clearly whether Zhang Han was safe or not, otherwise when Wei Zhuang found her, why was she heading away from Zuimeng Tower?
………………
On top of the mountains.
Facing Tian Yan's mention of the war in the North, Wang Li calmly pondered for a while and then said calmly:
"You can go, I'll just pretend that the rudeness just now didn't happen."
"Others, I have made it very clear. The three armies serve their lives and there is no reason to return empty-handed."
"There is no turning back when I shoot my bow. I am bound to win this battle!"
There are hundreds of thousands of heads in the farmer’s house, not even one can be missing!
Seeing Wang Li who had no intention of talking anymore and turned around to leave, Tian Yan once again tried to persuade him:
"There is a worse ending than leaving empty-handed."
"What did you say?" Wang Li turned his head and asked coldly.
"Loss of troops and generals, ending in a disastrous defeat." Tian Yan replied with a smile, "I think the general would also like to maintain a beautiful record of achievements."
"Hmph!" Wang Li turned around and asked with half a sneer and half a mocking look, "You mean... you want to lead those peasants with their mud-legged hands to fight against the imperial army?"
"Why not?" Tian Yan approached Wang Li holding his sword and responded with a smile, "The general can come up with a reason for the confrontation, or we can help Zhang Han make one up and let him report it to Ying Zheng."
"Bold!" When Wang Li heard Ying Zheng's name, he was immediately furious, "How dare you call the emperor by his first name!"
Tian Yanhun nonchalantly fiddled with his fingers and responded, "You should know that I dare to call him by his name...I dare to fight against anyone and kill anyone!"
"Come here, take her down!" Wang Li didn't talk nonsense to her. As soon as he waved his hand, soldiers came over and surrounded Tian Yan.
Originally, he wanted to deal with the fake Tian Yan, but he couldn't do it because he couldn't directly expose the other party's fake trap.
Now this woman was committing great disrespect by calling the emperor by his first name, which gave him a reason to take action, so naturally he couldn't let it go.
Tian Yan looked at the dozen or so soldiers surrounding him, smiled scornfully, and asked, "General, doesn't he understand what kind of person the Luowang Tianzi Killer is?"
"Your soldiers are just ants to me."
After the words fell, Tian Yan's palms turned and danced, and the engraved sword in his palm was unsheathed. The cold light flashed away, and a slender, long, and deeply touching sword mark appeared on the armor of the surrounding soldiers.
This is Tian Yan showing off his strength to intimidate Wang Li.
These ordinary soldiers under your command are no match at all!
Wang Li's brows jumped when he saw this, but he didn't give in. He sneered and asked, "Then do you want to count how many of my general's people are present?"
Gathered here are some of Wang Li's direct personal guards, about a thousand people, most of whom are the most elite crossbowmen.
This number is enough to kill almost any martial artist.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Tian Yan glanced at the large army that was ready to move, and the smile on his face did not change, and he responded, "The name of the armor-piercing soldier in hundreds of battles is like thunder, but...
...General, you only have one person, right?"
"Guess, you die first or I die first?"
With the protection of thousands of strong crossbow guards, it would be difficult to capture the thief and the king, but who made Tian Yan come so close to Wang Li?
At this distance, a top expert would definitely be sure to take Wang Li to death with him.
Wang Li's expression froze.
He was sure of escaping from Tian Yan's hands, but...he couldn't do that.
If Wang Li had just used his normal state to face Tian Yan, whose strength was suspected to be comparable to that of the Luowang Tianzi killer, he would indeed be backed up by the opponent.
But in front of so many soldiers under his command, it was impossible for Wang Li to surrender directly because he was greedy for life and fearful of death.
But if you fight the other party to the end, something could easily happen...
After hesitating for a moment, Wang Li made a decision.
If you fight, you will definitely fight. If you just bow your head and give in, he won't have to mess around anymore.
But he couldn't let his soldiers swarm him. He had to fight alone. If he lost, he would have room for explanation. In addition, Tian Yan still had the reputation of being a trap, so he could be regarded as his "colleague".
Therefore, concessions are not unacceptable.
Having made the decision, Wang Li immediately took action:
"General, I would like to see how capable you are!"
Wang Li didn't use any weapons and punched Tian Yan head on.
Tian Yan was not afraid at all when he saw him making a move. He also did not draw his sword. He stretched out a hand to face Wang Li, made an arc to avoid the opponent's fist, and pinched his elbow from the side.
A pinch and a pull removed Wang Li's strength.
At the same time, the distance between the two of them got closer. Tian Yan did not hesitate to raise his leg and hit Wang Li with a knee.
Seeing this, Wang Li hurriedly moved his other hand across his lower abdomen, using the strength of his armor to forcefully catch the knee.
Under the reaction force, the two of them each took a few steps back.
As a woman, Tian Yan's physical strength was indeed far inferior to that of Wang Li, who was tall and thick. In addition, the gap between flesh and metal was so great that Wang Li shook his arm and was not affected at all. On the contrary, Tian Yan's knees hurt for a while.
