Xiang Wentian has a strong and tall figure, especially his obviously different and ordinary demeanor, which naturally makes him look very eye-catching.
When Li Huan noticed Jing Kui, Taoist Ma Qi and Xiang Wentian, he naturally noticed Xiang Wentian.
Whether it was Jing Kui or Ma Qi, to be honest, Li Huan really didn't take it to heart. Their strength was top-notch.
Such a strong person can naturally be regarded as a strong person in the local area, but that also depends on who he is compared with.
Li Huan could kill people like Jing Kui and Ma Qi on the spot with just a few moves, but it was Xiang Wentian who really made Li Huan interested.
Compared to Ma Qi and Jing Kui, Xiang Wentian's aura was calm and strong, and he looked like he was not an ordinary strong man. Even Li Huan was a little curious about him.
At this moment, Jing Kui yelled, naturally revealing Xiang Wentian's identity.
Although Xiang Wentian was just called Xiang Zuo Shi and did not directly address his life, for people in the officialdom, such a title as Xiang Zuo Shi might be confusing.
But who made Li Huan very familiar with the forces in the world, especially evil cult forces like the Sun Moon God Sect? So when he heard Jing Kui's name, Li Huan immediately knew Xiang Wentian's identity.
Along with Jing Kui's roar, Xiang Wentian, who had been standing on the bow of the boat staring at Li Huan, had just calmed down the fear in his heart. You must know that he had seen the arrow that Li Huan shot at Jing Kui with his own eyes.
Feel it personally.
Xiang Wentian was quite close to Jing Kui. Because of this, the power contained in that arrow that shot through the air made Xiang Wentian secretly frightened when he saw it. He asked himself, what if that arrow shot towards him?
I'm afraid that I have to try my best to accept it.
I originally thought that this deal with people like Jing Kui was just an ordinary assassination. With his strength, it is not difficult to kill an imperial envoy.
But now after seeing Li Huan's strength, Xiang Wentian suddenly realized that he seemed to have made a pretty bad choice.
It's a pity that it seems too late to withdraw now, not to mention that once he chooses to withdraw, he will definitely offend Jing Kui and the people behind Jing Kui.
Xiang Wentian knew very well that these officials were very vindictive. If they were to target him, it would be impossible for him to successfully find the whereabouts of the teaching director, Wo Xing, in this place south of the Yangtze River.
Another point is that at this moment, a force of energy has locked onto him. If he dares to escape, a thunderous offensive will probably come.
Once the opportunity was lost, Xiang Wentian felt that his final fate would most likely be to be beaten to death.
Exhaling a breath of turbid air, Xiang Wentian straightened his body and immediately pounced on Li Huan. At the same time, he shouted to Li Huan: "Dog Officer, take a certain palm."
Xiang Wentian's cultivation is indeed not weak, otherwise he would not be able to be the right and left light envoy of the Sun and Moon God Sect alongside the former Dongfang Bubai.
This palm technique was so powerful that it blocked all possibilities of dodge for Li Huan. All he wanted was to strike hard with Li Huan.
However, when Xiang Wentian saw that Li Huan was only twenty years old, what he wanted in his mind was to use his strong inner energy accumulated over the years to suppress Li Huan, in order to severely injure Li Huan with one blow and then kill him.
I have to say that Xiang Wentian's choice was indeed the best choice for him. If it had been anyone else, Xiang Wentian might have succeeded.
It's a pity that Xiang Wentian's opponent this time is Li Huan, and it's impossible to judge him with common sense.
In Xiang Wentian's opinion, Li Huan's cultivation was definitely not as advanced as his, but Xiang Wentian didn't know that Li Huan practiced the Thirteen Taibao and the Dragon Elephant Prajna Kung Fu.
It may not be possible to find the second person.
Seeing Xiang Wentian attacking from the air, Li Huan smiled a little, but he didn't shoot the opponent with an arrow. Instead, he turned his hand and slapped Xiang Wentian with his palm.
The Dragon Elephant Prajna Kung Fu has now been cultivated to the tenth level by Li Huan. His strength is definitely not comparable to that of Xiang Wentian. When Li Huan slapped his palm, he could even hear the faint sound of dragon roar.
There was a loud roar, and Xiang Wentian's whole body
The person flew out directly, and there was still a blood mist and screams in the air.
With just one blow, Xiang Wentian fell into the river vomiting blood as if struck by lightning.
Ma Qi and Jing Kui, who originally had great expectations for Xiang Wentian, couldn't help but froze when they saw this scene.
How come they don't know Xiang Wentian's strength? Not to mention how famous Xiang Wentian is in the world, but they personally tested Xiang Wentian's strength not long ago.
They were worthy of a fight with Xiang Wentian, and if it weren't for Xiang Wentian's subordinates being so kind, they might not be able to hold on for long before being injured by Xiang Wentian.
Because of this, Jing Kui and others were full of confidence in Xiang Wentian's strength. They believed that as long as Xiang Wentian took action, not to mention directly killing Li Huan, they would at least be able to severely injure Li Huan.
But now who will tell them what happened and why Xiang Wentian was knocked away by Li Huan's palm in one move and fell into the river like a rag doll.
Is Xiang Wentian too weak, or Li Huan too strong?
Ma Qi gulped, and the long sword in his hand began to tremble a little, and he looked at Li Huan with great fear.
At this moment, Li Huan slowly opened the bow and arrow in his hand again, and this time the arrow locked on Ma Qi.
In an instant, a chill spread throughout Ma Qi's body. Without thinking, Ma Qi jumped directly into the river.
At the same time, a stream of light broke through the air and it was Li Huan who shot out an arrow. The arrow hit the boat under Ma Qi with a sound of breaking through the air.
Because Ma Qi reacted quickly enough, he jumped into the river in time to avoid the arrow, but the arrow contained terrifying power and directly pierced the boat through a hole the size of a washbasin. Immediately, the river water poured in, and the boat was on the river surface.
Spin around.
Here, Li Huan severely wounded Xiang Wentian with his attack, forcing Jing Kui and Ma Qi to fall into the water, while a fierce battle broke out on several official ships around him.
The first wave of crossbows took away at least one to two hundred desperadoes, leaving the surrounding river surface covered with floating corpses filled with arrows, and even the surrounding water surface was dyed red with blood.
However, these desperadoes, with the lives of their companions, finally survived until the crossbow arrows were exhausted, and a series of wet figures finally climbed onto the boat.
When these people climbed onto the boat, coughing and screaming, and rushed towards the prepared guards, the guards immediately dropped the crossbows in their hands, unsheathed their swords and faced these people without any fear.
The space above the deck can be said to be large, but it can be said to be small. The melee between the two sides can be said to be a close combat, and what they are fighting for is defense and attack power.
When the daggers in the hands of these desperadoes slashed across the bodies of many Jin Yiwei, many desperadoes showed joy in their eyes.
However, the joy on their faces froze at the next moment. Along with the flashing cold light of the sword, the Xiuchun sword in the hands of many Jin Yiwei also struck them.
Severe pain came, stumps and broken arms were flying everywhere, and blood spurted out. In the blink of an eye, a large number of submersibles who climbed onto the ship were shocked to find that when they attacked the Jin Yiwei, the sharp blades only cut through the clothes of these Jin Yiwei, revealing their inner clothes.
Here comes the armor.
These Jin Yiwei were all wearing armor, so that dozens of people fell down when they rushed forward. The result of the battle was that three or five Jin Yiwei were too unlucky to dodge and were hit in the neck, head and other vital parts, and lost their lives.
.
The ratio of casualties to both sides was more than ten to one. It can be said that the Jinyiwei side suffered no damage at all, but these canal workers suffered heavy casualties.
Several leaders couldn't help but look at each other when they saw this scene. This was different from what they imagined.
According to their plans and imagination, under the attack of hundreds of them, the Jin Yiwei side would definitely suffer heavy casualties even if they were prepared.
As long as they relied on their superiority on the water and their numerical superiority to kill all the imperial envoys and his party, they would then scuttle the official ships, creating the illusion that the imperial envoys and his party had sunk and died.
Although even a fool knows that several official ships were silent at the same time, it is obviously abnormal that no one on the ship escaped, but whether others believe it or not is another question.
, but some people must make an explanation to the court.
No matter how unreasonable it is, what can be done? At most, the imperial court will send an imperial envoy to come. But with the precedent of Li Huan and his party, I don't know if anyone will be willing to serve as an imperial envoy to investigate this case.
It is precisely because of this that Jing Kui and others did not attack these official ships with fire attack at the beginning. After all, in that case, maybe they could kill Li Huan and his party, but under the raging fire,
The official ship was burned, but it’s hard to explain.
However, although fire attack is not the first choice, it is also used as a backup strategy by Jing Kui and others.
Whenever the surprise attack was unfavorable, Jing Kui also prepared a back-up plan, which was the fire attack method.
The extremely embarrassed Jing Kui finally relied on his excellent water skills to lurk far away, widening the distance between him and Li Huan, and then emerged from the water again.
As a result, Jing Kui saw that many of his men who had just climbed onto the boat not long ago were killed by the Jin Yiwei like dumplings, and fell into the river screaming and wailing.
Many Jin Yiwei even picked up the previously abandoned crossbows, loaded them with arrows, and then stood on the side of the ship and fired at many water workers in the water, causing many unprepared water workers to die on the spot.
Seeing this scene, Jing Kui's eyes twitched, and he shouted in shock and anger: "Set fire, set fire to me, burn them to death, burn them to death!"
As Jing Kui's back-up man, on dozens of small boats in the distance, Jing Kui's roar was heard, and nearly a hundred figures rowed the boats desperately like arrows from the string and approached here.
Through the light above the big ship, you can see a dozen small boats approaching quickly, and on top of these small boats are piles of clay pots.
Jing Kui's roar spread in all directions, and Li Huan and the royal guards on the ship could naturally hear it clearly.
So when he saw the approaching boats, Li Huan couldn't help but frown. The next moment, Li Huan said: "Bring the rocket!"
Soon, the lit arrows fell into Li Huan's hands one after another. Li Huan shot an arrow, and the arrow hit a small boat in front with the light of fire.
The arrow broke through the air and hit the pile of clay pots on the boat. Several clay pots shattered on the spot, and kerosene flowed out. When it encountered fire, it was instantly ignited, and the flames shot into the sky for a moment.
Several men in black on the boat were frightened, and some unlucky ones were even splashed all over by the flowing fire oil, and their whole bodies became as if they were on fire.
"escape!"
Without any instructions, the people on the boat immediately jumped into the water, and the out-of-control boat stopped immediately. Along with the blazing fire, it illuminated the river surface dozens of feet in radius, making it extremely eye-catching.
It seems that Li Huan did not expect that Li Huan would retaliate in kind and ignited the kerosene on the ship first. When Jing Kui reacted, Li Huan used rockets to ignite more than a dozen small boats loaded with kerosene.
.
Seeing that this was going on, fearing that all the boats might not be able to get close and would be swallowed up by the fire one by one, Jing Kui slapped the water hard and anxiously.
Ma Qi, who didn't know when he had fled to Jing Kui's side, rolled his eyes and shouted: "Everyone bring clay pots and throw them on the boat for me."
After hearing Ma Qi's words, the remaining men in black on the boat were stunned for a moment and then reacted quickly enough to pick up the clay pot and throw it towards their companions in the river not far away.
The men in black who had been killed by the Jin Yiwei were too timid to board the ship again. Seeing this, they quickly took the clay pot and swam towards the official ship not far away with a ferocious and excited look on their faces.
They didn't dare to get on the ship, but there was no problem in letting them smash the clay pots in their hands against the official ship.
Li Huan's speed was fast enough, but even with Li Huan's strength, the ships that entered his range were set on fire. However, after all, there were two or three small ships that escaped because they were too far away.
It is precisely because of this that many water workers in the river got clay pots filled with kerosene one by one. Many of them were even shot and killed by the Jinyi guards on the big ship with their strong mothers in order to prevent them from using their extraordinary water skills.
Sneaking for more than ten feet to approach the ship, he suddenly jumped out of the water and used all his strength to slam the ceramic onto the deck.
Broken clay pot
It cracked open, and pungent fire oil immediately flowed out.
Although many people were shot dead on the spot by Jinyiwei the moment they came forward, many people still managed to throw kerosene onto the deck.
As the saying goes, no matter how tight the Jin Yi Guards are, they cannot guarantee to block all attacks 100%.
Even if the big ship Li Huan was on, under Li Huan's command, there were more than a hundred corpses floating around, it could be said that there was a place of death within a few feet of Li Huan's ship, but it still couldn't stand the bravery of desperadoes.
With the deadly impact, at least a dozen clay pots were thrown up, so that there was a lot of kerosene flowing on the deck.
Li Huan stood on the bow of the ship, shooting arrows one after another. Each arrow would take away a life. From the time of the attack to the present, Li Huan had shot at least nearly a hundred arrows, and nearly as many people had died directly under Li Huan.
There are as many as a hundred people.
That is to say, Li Huan had advanced cultivation and amazing arm strength. Otherwise, if he could draw a bow and shoot such a powerful crossbow, a normal person would be unable to shoot an arrow of merit.
There was a buzzing sound, and Cao Yu, who was standing next to Li Huan, couldn't help but be stunned. It turned out that the bow and arrow in Li Huan's hand had broken due to frequent shooting.
Upon seeing this, Li Huan casually threw away his bow and arrow, and looked at the black bodies surrounding the water.
At least hundreds of corpses seemed to be slowly approaching the several official ships surrounded by people under human control. At first glance, this situation was really horrifying.
