There is no doubt that Wei Changtian is waiting for Ning Yongnian.
And this was the first time the two met.
Their eyes met in mid-air, and they glanced at Li Wutong, who was thrown aside by Ning Yongnian.
Wei Changtian smiled and stepped on Wu Ding's chest, but the raised figure was slowly lowered.
In fact, if possible, he would rather Ning Yongnian showed up earlier, so that the divine strike talisman hitting Bai Youheng would probably have another target.
Even now he can use the remaining 500 system points to buy another Divine Strike and try to kill the latter directly.
But I think the probability of success is low.
After all, Ning Yongnian is very thoughtful, and with Bai Youheng as a warning, he probably has more than one life-saving tool in his possession now.
And if he failed to kill him, it would be absolutely impossible for him to defeat two second-grade ones.
You must know that the one against three just now is not actually one against three.
Wu Ding had been beaten half to death by Qin Zhengqiu.
Bai Youheng would be suppressed by the Divine Beast of Luck, and even received a divine strike.
So strictly speaking, I only need to deal with Li Huaizhong alone.
And to deal with a second-grade, this is all Wei Changtian's "own strength" can do.
Thinking from this perspective, if Ning Yongnian hadn't been a little slow because he was a little far away, but had rushed to the battlefield as soon as possible, then he might not have been able to cope with it.
But now that the general trend has been decided, the next step is...
...
"Whoosh whoosh!"
After a few breaths, all the long swords around Li Huaizhong had returned to the star scabbards, and the former also returned to Ning Yongnian's side tacitly.
Standing tall and surrounded by thousands of soldiers, Wei Changtian looked at Ning Yongnian, who looked extremely ugly, and said with a smile at the corner of his mouth:
"Your Majesty, I've heard a lot...oh, no, I almost forgot."
"The emperor of Daning is no longer you."
"Hiss...then what should I call you?"
"Just call you Ning Yongnian?"
The rhetorical question was full of sarcasm, which made Ning Yongnian suddenly clenched his fists.
At this moment, he wished he could immediately order the soldiers to surround and kill Wei Changtian, no, it should be said that he could immediately personally cut this young man into pieces.
However, when his eyes swept over Wu Ding, who was already fainting, and Bai Youheng, who was like a hedgehog, he suppressed the anger in his heart.
"Wei Changtian, don't be so arrogant."
"Did you know that there are one hundred thousand troops of mine in Huailing City!"
"If you don't want to die, let him go immediately!"
"In this case, I may still spare your life!"
"..."
Wei Changtian.
When Ning Yongnian said these three words, the crowd around him suddenly became noisy.
In Daning, Wei Changtian's "evil reputation" has long been known to everyone.
In Dafeng, after following him around Fengyuan, his name has been heard by many people.
Especially the story between him and Li Wutong...
"This, this is Mr. Wei?!"
"No wonder they rescued the emperor!!"
"I didn't expect Mr. Wei to be so powerful!"
"Young Master Wei is here for Princess Wu Ping, right?"
“Such friendship is really hard to find in the world!!”
"..."
All kinds of discussions were noisy for a while. In addition to being grateful to Wei Changtian for his "righteous act," everyone's eyes also fell on Li Wutong.
In their view, Wei Changtian was not only the hero who saved Da Feng from water and fire, but also a good man who was affectionate and righteous to Li Wutong.
Even Li Wutong thought the same way at this time.
Although her acupuncture points were sealed and she could not move, her eyes kept looking at Wei Changtian not far away, and her emotions were particularly complicated.
There is joy, emotion, regret, and pain.
Wei Changtian suddenly appeared and rescued Li Qi, which should have been a good thing.
But the more this happened, the more Li Wutong remembered what he had done before, and for a moment he didn't know whether he should cry or laugh.
So, she just looked at Wei Changtian blankly...even though the latter only glanced at her from beginning to end.
"Ning Yongnian, don't you think what you just said is ridiculous?"
Ignoring the noise around him and Li Wutong's complicated eyes, Wei Changtian and Ning Yongnian still looked at each other calmly.
"Save me a life?"
"Tsk, tsk, I don't know who gave you the confidence."
"According to me, you should first think about how to save the lives of these two people."
"Crack!"
With a little force under his feet, several of Wu Ding's ribs were immediately crushed.
The latter spat out another mouthful of blood, and was so painful that he temporarily regained consciousness from his unconscious state.
He turned his head to look at Ning Yongnian with difficulty, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.
When Ning Yongnian saw this, his face showed a trace of pain for a moment.
Bai Youheng and he had a cooperative relationship, Li Huaizhong had a "criminal record", and Han Zhao had turned against him.
So among the group of masters around him now, Wu Ding should be the one he trusts the most.
"Okay, today I admit defeat..."
Staring at the smiling Wei Changtian, Ning Yongnian almost squeezed out a sentence through his teeth.
"Wei Changtian, didn't you come to Huailing just for Li Qi and his daughter..."
"I do as you wish!"
"I won't pursue Li Qi's matter any longer. Li Wutong can also be given to you!"
"Now, let these two people go!"
"..."
Li Qi adds Li Wutong, replaces Wu Ding with Bai Youheng.
Although the latter two are both second-level masters, the first two have special status, so from the perspective of "hostage value" alone, it is difficult to say who will gain and who will lose in such a transaction.
However, Ning Yongnian's initiative to "exchange hostages" undoubtedly proved that he had admitted defeat.
But even though he had "let go" his pride as an emperor, Wei Changtian didn't appreciate it at all.
"Ning Yongnian? Are you really out of your mind?"
"Li Qi has been rescued by me and is not in your hands. What will you exchange for me?"
"If I really want to change, I can only change one person for another, unless there is someone else there that I want."
"..."
The anger in his eyes almost reached an uncontrollable level. The more Wei Changtian acted so relaxed, the angrier Ning Yongnian became.
However, he really couldn't bring any more chips, so he could only listen in silence to Wei Changtian's continued words:
"Look, you have Li Wutong in your hand."
"In this case......"
As if he was driving away mosquitoes in the summer, Wei Changtian suddenly smiled and waved his hand gently as he spoke.
His movements were so casual that no one realized what he was going to do until the moment before the long knife hovering over Bai Youheng's head suddenly fell.
"puff!!"
The long knife fell and instantly pierced Bai Youheng's head.
The latter's eyes suddenly widened, and then slowly lost the last trace of life in the tens of thousands of shocked eyes.
Silvery white snowflakes floated quietly and fell into the pool of blood.
Except for the soft sound of falling snow, there was only a long dead silence in the entire vegetable market.
One of the thirteen sons of heaven, one of the real culprits of the Yuanzhou City massacre, died so silently.
And maybe even Bai Youheng himself didn't expect Wei Changtian to be so decisive, or so casual.
If he really wanted to kill himself, he could have done it long ago, so why did he have to wait until now.
Could it be that Wei Changtian deliberately showed it to Ning Yongnian...
“Swish, swish, swish!!”
All the long knives nailed to Bai Youheng's body were pulled out and flew back to the star scabbard with their flesh and blood attached.
Wei Changtian's expression remained unchanged, he clapped his hands as if he had just done a small thing, and then raised his eyes to look at Ning Yongnian, who was trembling slightly.
