176. Breakthrough Dan, I really admire your self-confidence monthly pass)
"Sir, are we lost?"
Haitang, who was dressed as a book boy, looked at the map in her hand repeatedly and asked this question several times.
Yin Wuyou, who also dresses in men's clothing and is extremely handsome, has black lines on his forehead.
Although she didn't want to admit it, it seemed like - they were really lost -
"Stop reading, you can't understand!"
Yin Wuyou said angrily.
"It's better to find someone to ask for directions."
Your Highness, don’t you understand?
Haitang muttered in her heart, carefully put the map into her bag, and then said, "But where is anyone in this barren mountain?"
"Your Highness."
There were no outsiders here, and Haitang forgot to change her name and said, "You said we asked for directions several times before, and the direction we walked was indeed in the direction they pointed."
"How do I know?"
Yin Wuyou said helplessly.
If she knew, could she still get lost?
Suddenly, Yin Wuyou's expression changed.
"Begonia, don't worry about anything later and keep walking towards the sunset! Remember, no matter what happens, don't look back!"
Yin Wuyou said in a deep voice.
She raised her right hand and grasped the hilt of the sword exposed on her right shoulder.
With a clang, the long sword was unsheathed, Yin Wuyou's body lit up with a faint light, and his whole body's aura was rising steadily.
When she left Beijing this time, she brought two high-quality weapons with her. One was a high-quality long sword that Emperor Yuan Feng specially asked someone to forge for her, and the other was Chengying!
Chengying is invisible to the naked eye and hangs around the waist.
At this moment, she did not use the Shadow Sword, but her original long sword.
"Come out!"
Yin Wuyou gave a cold shout.
She stretched out her arm and pointed the long sword straight ahead. The sharp sword energy caused her and even the air around her to deflect.
Although the powerful momentum was not directed at Haitang, Haitang had already taken two steps back involuntarily.
Her seventh-grade martial arts cultivation level could not withstand the powerful momentum that Yin Wuyou's second-grade martial arts cultivation level unleashed.
"Pa bang——"
Footsteps sounded, and a figure walked out of the forest not far ahead.
The man was tall and burly, with bronze-colored skin. He was holding a large sword as tall as a person, and he had a faint aura of power.
"Great Wei State Master!"
Yin Wuyou's pupils shrank slightly, and his heart sank.
Her eyes fell on the right arm of Xiao Shunzhi, the great master of the Wei Dynasty, and a flash of shock flashed in her eyes.
Why is his right arm still there?
The Giant Que Sword, which ranks first in the Huangpin Weapon Spectrum, is clearly noted at the back. It once cut off the right arm of Xiao Shunzhi, the Imperial Preceptor of the Wei Dynasty!
Yin Wuyou had some doubts in her heart, but that was not the time to think about these things. She stared at Xiao Shunzhi, and her spiritual energy burst out without reservation.
Xiao Shunzhi, the imperial master of the Great Wei Dynasty, was a first-class warrior.
If you have any reservations, you are seeking death!
Yin Wuyou once fought against Xiao Shunzhi, and Xiao Shunzhi was seriously injured that time, and she almost died.
Although her cultivation level has improved by one level now, Xiao Shunzhi's injuries have also recovered.
Yin Wuyou has no confidence that he can escape.
She now only hopes that Haitang can escape, otherwise, if they both die here, no one will know who killed them.
Xiao Shunzhi smiled half-heartedly, looked at Yin Wuyou and said.
"Princess Daxia dares to enter the territory of Wei Dynasty privately. Do you think that Wei Dynasty will not notice when the majestic Princess Daxia enters the territory of Wei Dynasty?"
Yin Wuyou's expression was solemn. She was not stupid at all. In an instant, she already understood that the people she asked for directions before were probably pointing her in the wrong direction on purpose.
The purpose is to lead her to this barren mountain.
Otherwise, if she were in a busy city, even if she was not Xiao Shunzhi's opponent, with her second-grade martial arts cultivation, she would definitely bring huge losses to Wei.
In these barren mountains and ridges, there are no problems.
Xiao Shunzhi can completely kill himself with his hands and feet.
Yin Wuyou figured this out, and she did not regret that she deliberately took the route of Wei in order to avoid her father's pursuit.
If it happened again, she would leave the capital.
Da Qin is not a kind place, and she is worried about letting Zhou Shu go to Da Qin alone. His martial arts cultivation level is only seventh level, which is the same as Haitang's, too weak.
Taking a deep breath, Yin Wuyou's expression became extremely determined.
I must not admit defeat, I still have to chase the mission, and I still have to protect Zhou Shu!
"Your Highness Princess, I advise you to stay calm and capture her. This way you will suffer less. If you do use your hands, I cannot guarantee that I will not hurt you."
The blade of the blood-drinking mad knife in Xiao Shunzhi's hand pointed at the ground and said.
"Xiao Shunzhi, stop talking nonsense. There are princesses who died in battle in Daxia, but there are no cowards who beg for mercy!"
Yin Wuyou shouted, "Kill me if you can!"
Before she finished speaking, her whole body had turned into an afterimage, and her boundless sword energy stabbed towards Xiao Shunzhi.
"Let's go!"
Yin Wuyou's voice rang in Haitang's ears, and there was a force that sent her whole body flying backwards.
People were in the air, and Haitang had tears streaming down her face.
She knew that with her level of cultivation, there was no way she could intervene in the battle between Her Royal Highness the Princess and Xiao Shunzhi.
Even if she wanted to sacrifice herself to buy some time for Her Royal Highness, she couldn't do it.
The only thing she can do now is to find reinforcements!
"Hangu Pass! Lord Marquis!"
I don’t know why, but the first figure that flashed in Haitang’s mind was Zhou Shu.
She gritted her teeth, and the spirit energy in her body exploded like a lifeless explosion. She ran crazily in the forest towards the sunset.
She refused to dodge the branches and vines in the forest, leaving scratches on her body. She had no time to dodge, she had to find reinforcements as quickly as possible!
"Boom——"
Yin Wuyou flew up into the sky, and he looked like a flying fairy. He turned around beautifully in the air, and the sword light in his hand was swaying, and the dazzling sword light slashed downwards.
"Boom——"
The light of the sword and the light of the sword collided.
Yin Wuyou was once again thrown away by the force of the impact. Xiao Shunzhi below also took several steps back, leaving clear footprints on the ground.
Yin Wuyou's eyes became a little brighter. Although she was at a disadvantage in the brief exchange, she also clearly felt that Xiao Shunzhi had become weaker!
Last time in Youzhou City, her third-level martial arts cultivation was seriously injured by Xiao Shun, who was seriously injured, but she could only persist in a few moves.
At that time, Xiao Shunzhi had broken his right arm, but he still had that strength.
Xiao Shunzhi seems to be unscathed now, but the strength he shows is not as good as when he broke his arm!
Although I don’t know why, the strength shown by Xiao Shunzhi now is definitely not that of a first-class martial artist!
Second grade martial arts!
His current cultivation level is only at the second level of martial arts!
Even if you are stronger than yourself, your strength is limited!
Everyone is second grade, why do you kill me!
Yin Wuyou felt heroic in her heart. She sheathed the long sword in her hand, tore off a piece of her hair, and tied her loose hair behind her back. She looked so heroic.
"The Great Master of the Wei Dynasty is nothing more than that!"
Yin Wuyou shouted.
Holding the hilt of the sword again with his right hand, the long sword was unsheathed again, and the sword energy was flowing horizontally, slashing towards Xiao Shunzhi.
Xiao Shunzhi's face was gloomy, and the Blood-Drinking Crazy Sword also turned into a sky full of sword light, and he went forward.
If you weren’t worried that too many people would know about your downfall, how could you come here alone?
I didn’t expect that this Princess of Daxia would actually have a second-grade martial arts cultivation!
How old is she?
Lu Wenshuang, who is known as the number one martial arts genius in Great Xia, must also be at the third level of martial arts.
This Daxia princess is hidden deep enough!
But so what if he is a second-level martial arts master? If my national master cannot even defeat a rising generation, then the past hundred years of training will be in vain!
The sound of rumbling echoed in the mountains and forests, the sword energy and the light of the sword were raging, and everything for miles around became a mess.
When two second-level martial artists fight, the destructive power is truly astonishing.
If this happened in the city, countless innocent ordinary people would be crushed to pieces by the sword energy and sword light.
This is why Xiao Shunzhi would try to lure Yin Wuyou to a place like this before taking action.
Martial artists above the third level of martial arts have entered another realm. Whether it is to capture or kill such a strong person, it is not that easy to do.
Just when a battle broke out in the mountains and forests of Dawei, the Daxia envoy had already established a camp at Hangu Pass hundreds of miles away.
Zhou Shu, Lu Wenshuang, and Shi Songtao, the nominal top three leaders of the Daxia mission, rarely gathered together in a discussion manner.
Also present was General Meng Bai.
In just a short period of time, Meng Bai seemed to be a little older than when he just left the capital.
Every few moments, he would cough.
That situation made Zhou Shu worry about whether he could survive to the capital of Qin Dynasty.
He is now even more curious about why Meng Bai must set off with the mission.
With Meng Bai's current body, even if he doesn't die before leaving the army, there is a high probability that he will never return to Chang'an.
Now, it seems that he may drive to Hexi at any time.
Every time he coughed, Zhou Shu felt like his heart was beating with fear.
Several times, he wanted to tell Meng Bai, why not try eating the Po Jing Dan?
However, the effect of the Realm-Breaking Pill is also a big problem. If anyone knows about it, he will definitely become a favorite in the eyes of warriors all over the world.
I don’t know how many people will come to him by then, even if he says that he has no realm-breaking pills, it will be useless.
By then, it is estimated that not only will people come to beg him, but other destructive means will also be necessary.
What Zhou Shu fears most is trouble. Those people can't hurt him, but like flies, they will annoy people.
That's why when he gave the Breaking Realm Pill to Meng Bai, he told him not to take it until he was in danger.
In fact, it is unlikely that the Daxia Mission will actually reach that situation.
However, if Zhou Shu's strength is exposed and he leaves Daxia, Meng Bai will definitely become suspicious of what Zhou Shu left behind. At that time, if he takes the Breaking Realm Pill again, Zhou Shu will no longer know where to go, so it doesn't matter. No more trouble.
Zhou Shu has a good idea, but judging from Meng Bai's appearance, he may not wait until that day.
He secretly made up his mind that if there was still no movement from Shen Yue's side, he would ask Meng Bai to take the Realm-Breaking Pill before starting to officially break through.
At most, he can just ask Meng Bai to keep it a secret for him. As for the origin of the Breaking Realm Pill, just blame it on that unfounded senior brother.
I think that as a person who is covered in white, I will not expose myself.
"Master Hou—Master Hou!"
Shi Songtao's voice woke Zhou Shu up from his deep thoughts.
"What did you say?"
Zhou Shu came back to his senses and asked.
Shi Songtao had a dark look on his face, he was talking about business, is it really appropriate for you to be so distracted?
He reluctantly repeated what he just said.
"I think that since Da Qin said that this level is mainly about testing the art of forging weapons, then the force of force is not the most important thing for the nine people who passed the level."
"I think we should arrange as many weapon-casting divisions as possible. As for the force, two warriors are enough. In fact, if we don't need people to carry the weapon-casting materials in the first level, I don't think there is any need for warrior guards among the nine. ."
Shi Songtao said.
Zhou Shu looked at Meng Bai and Lu Wenshuang.
"General, Deputy Ambassador Lu, what do you mean?"
Zhou Shu asked.
Meng Bai coughed twice again and said, "What Vice Envoy Shi said makes sense. Although Da Qin did not explain it deliberately, there are unspoken rules in various countries, and first-class warriors will not move lightly."
"So among the nine people from all over the world who have made it through, there is no need to worry about the emergence of first-level martial arts. There may be second-level martial arts, but it is unlikely."
"Among those who break through the border from various countries, they are most likely to be equipped with a third-level martial arts guard."
"We have Deputy Envoy Lu here, so there is no need to worry about the third-level martial arts, but we don't know what the specific barriers set by Great Qin are. To be on the safe side, I suggest that among the nine people, in addition to Deputy Envoy Lu, there are two more guards."
"Of course, you still have the final say on the mission's matters. I'm an old man and I'm just making a suggestion."
Meng Bai said and coughed violently again.
Weaponsmiths and pure warriors are two to one. This ratio is quite appropriate.
Zhou Shu looked at Lu Wenshuang. Lu Wenshuang’s facial expression and eyes showed that you don’t need to ask me, I have no objection.
Seeing her like this, Zhou Shu didn't bother to ask her opinion.
"We will do as the general said. Six weapon-casting divisions and three warriors to protect us!"
"Deputy Lu is one, and the other two warriors are guarding him. General, do you think General Chen Ji can leave the guard?"
"Okay."
Meng Bai said that even if Zhou Shu hadn't mentioned it, he would have arranged for Chen Ji to join.
Protecting Zhou Shu is the most important thing for the escort. As for other people in the mission who do not participate in the breakthrough, there is actually not much danger.
"In addition to General Chen Ji, I think General Yin Chengshan Yin is also good."
Zhou Shu plans to bring all his workers with him. After all, it is an opportunity to make meritorious deeds. Of course, he will take care of his own people first.
If there weren't too few places, he would have wanted to include Yang Hong.
"As for the Weapon Master, Deputy Shi and I count as two, and the other four - Deputy Shi, you can choose whatever you want."
Zhou Shu said nonchalantly.
I knew it!
Shi Songtao thought in his heart that Zhou Shu, the hands-off shopkeeper, had never taken care of anything before. Shi Songtao was already a little surprised to be able to choose two guards this time.
"I know, I will choose a few people later and let you, Mr. Hou, decide on the final candidate."
Shi Songtao said in a low voice, who asked him to be the deputy? He should do the work!
"Okay, let's break up the meeting."
Zhou Shu clapped his hands and said, "General, please rest early. The terrain of Hangu Pass is interesting. I'll go take a look."
