The appearance of the Dongxuan Realm swordsman changed the situation.
Lu Qingchen was the first person to react. He shouted to Wang Gang: "Little friend Wang, take the princess away quickly, and I will stop him."
Wang Gang did not leave, but looked at the swordsman quite provocatively.
Since he arrived in this world, he has never seen any practitioners fight against each other. He just slaughtered those horse thieves, and it was more of a crushing game.
Ordinary people have no chance to fight back when facing practitioners. There is no way to defend against the flying knives and swords that come and go without a trace.
In fact, Wang Gang fell into a misunderstanding at this time. It was not that practitioners could crush ordinary people, but that Wang Gang used the methods of practitioners to crush ordinary people.
Although Lu Qingchen is a monk in the Dongxuan Realm, facing a hundred times more enemies, his telekinesis power will sometimes be exhausted.
Without the power of telepathy, a telepathy master is no different from an ordinary person, or even worse than an ordinary person.
But Wang Gang is different. He has a strong body, good inner skills, and a good understanding of the fragile parts of the human body. What's more, he has rich combat experience. When facing an enemy hundreds of times larger, he can always kill the opponent in the shortest time and with the least effort.
Most of the hundreds of horse thieves who were killed just now were harvested by Wang Gang.
The swordsman had actually been here a long time ago and had been hiding in the dark to observe the situation. He didn't want to take action before Wang Gang used his training methods, even if Lu Qingchen had already used the flying sword at that time.
The swordsman was not afraid of Lu Qingchen, but he knew the weakness of the telepathy master and wanted to wait for Lu Qingchen to consume more telepathy power before he took action.
The reason for this is because for the same monks in the Dongxuan Realm, the power of the Mind Master is greater than that of the Sword Master and Talisman Master. This is common knowledge in the cultivation world.
But after Wang Gang took action, he used his telekinesis to control the sword, killing the horse thieves more easily than killing the chickens, which completely frightened the swordsman.
He knew that if he didn't take action, the hundreds of horse-riding thieves wouldn't be enough for Wang Gang to kill.
Once all the horse thieves have been killed, the swordsman will take action and there will no longer be a threat to Wang Gang and Lu Qingchen, let alone killing Li Yu.
"You are a monk in the Dongxuan Realm. Why did you get involved in a power struggle and assassinate the princess of the Tang Dynasty?"
Lu Qingchen stood in front of the swordsman, a flying sword flying up and down, his right hand behind his back, and he secretly gestured to Wang Gang.?
The swordsman held the sword in his arms, looked at Lu Qingchen coldly, and said: "As a worshiper at the south gate of Haotian Dao, you are not condescending to protect Li Yu. Don't tell me that you are doing it for the Tang Dynasty."
Lu Qingchen sensed that Wang Gang had not left, but stood beside him, looking eager to try, and couldn't help but secretly complain.
His mental power has been consumed by 40%, and he has no chance of winning against a swordsman of the same level but with well-preserved strength.
The swordsman was worried about Wang Gang and took the initiative to say to Lu Qingchen: "As long as you keep Li Yu's carriage and leave on your own, I will never stop you."
Lu Qingchen coughed and the flying sword flew faster and faster.
"You are a sword master and I am a mind master. You can't beat me."
The swordsman said confidently: "I admit that if you two join forces, I am no match, but it will be easy for me to hold you off for a quarter of an hour."
Lu Qingchen's heart trembled as he saw the scattered horse thieves regrouping and looking eagerly at Li Yu's carriage.
These horse thieves are well-trained and have excellent horse skills. At first glance, they look like people who have been killed for a long time. It is impossible for ordinary horse thieves gangs to have such combat effectiveness.
Lu Qingchen could only think of one possibility. The Hundreds of Horse Thieves were disguised as elite soldiers, and those with such strength in the Tang Dynasty were not the ones who wanted to kill Li Yu.
Only Xiahou.
"I'm very curious about what benefits Xiahou gave you to assassinate the princess." Lu Qingchen asked the swordsman.
"I know you are stalling for time and want to recover your telepathy, but I still want to tell you that I killed Li Yu not because of Xia Hou, but because of the prophecy."
"When the night falls and the stars are covered, the country will be restless."
Lu Qingchen fell silent. It was because of this prophecy that Li Yuyuan got married. There were even rumors that a hundred years from now, the king of Tang will have a female lead in the world!??
The swordsman obviously believed the prophecy, so he came to kill Li Yu.
"Enough of the nonsense, come on together!"
The swordsman slowly drew out the sword in his hand, and the vitality of heaven and earth turned into Lingjian Qi, transforming into a dragon.
The surging sword energy rushed towards him. Lu Qingchen used his mental power to control the flying sword and blocked the first wave of sword energy.
Bang!
A huge impact force was generated between Lu Qingchen and the swordsman, and countless sharp sword energies scattered, shattering everything within ten feet.
After the blow, Lu Qingchen snorted secretly, and a trace of bright red overflowed from the corner of his mouth.
On the contrary, the sword in the swordsman's hand is still very stable.
Wang Gang stood aside and never made a move. He kept observing the swordsman's attack method, and his expression became weirder the more he looked at it.
"Does a swordsman condense the energy of heaven and earth into a sword and attack others with the sword energy? Isn't it too simple?"
Lu Qingchen coughed, suppressed the fishy smell in his throat, and said to the swordsman: "Your swordsmanship belongs to the academy. Does the academy also want the princess to die?"
The swordsman snorted coldly: "As an abandoned disciple of the academy, what I do has nothing to do with the academy."
After saying that, a red aura emerged from the sword master's body, and the vitality of the world near him seemed to be boiling, being swallowed into the sword master's body continuously.
When Lu Qingchen saw the swordsman's appearance, he couldn't help but be shocked and said: "You are possessed by a demon! How dare you abandon Haotian and choose the devil's path."
Wang Gang glanced at the swordsman with his telekinesis, but was shocked to find that his telekinesis was also devoured by the opponent.
No, to be precise, it was the power of thought mixed with the vitality of heaven and earth, which was taken into the body by the swordsman as if swallowing a jujube.
After forcibly absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth, the swordsman's momentum became stronger and stronger, gradually reaching the peak of Dongxuan Realm, completely surpassing Lu Qingchen.
At this time, Lu Qingchen was determined to live and die, and said to Wang Gang: "Take the princess away quickly, she has become a demon, if we drag her on any longer, all of us will die."
Wang Gang glanced at Lu Qingchen strangely and said, "Can you deal with him?"
Lu Qingchen said righteously and solemnly: "Even if I fight to the death, I will not let the remnants of the Demon Sect harm the Tang Dynasty."
Wang Gang curled his lips and said, "If you can't beat me, just let me do it."
Lu Qingchen was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, he saw Wang Gang flying towards the swordsman.
It is not accurate to say that it was flying. It should be said that Wang Gang was sucked by the swordsman.
The swordsman used the demon sect's technique, and a terrifying suction force appeared all over his body. Lu Qingchen could barely resist the suction force.
Wang Gang completely gave up resistance and instead took the initiative to come to the swordsman's side.
"If you want to suck it, I'll let you suck it all." Wang Gang put his palm on the sword master's chest, and then used his mind power to drive the vitality of the world and actively pour the vitality and mind power into the sword master's body.
The swordsman was stunned at this time. He had seen people risking his life, but he had never seen someone like Wang Gang who took the initiative to join the enemy and risked his life.
Mindfulness is the foundation of a practitioner, so how could anyone take the initiative to send me away?
"Since you want to die, I will make it happen for you."
The swordsman opened his mouth wide, and the suction force on his body was even stronger. He wanted to suck Wang Gang dry completely.
But a quarter of an hour later, the swordsman realized something was wrong.
"How come you have so much mental power? It seems endless."
Wang Gang smiled strangely, the pores on his body swelled, and the vitality of heaven and earth desperately gathered towards his body, and then flowed into the sword master's body.
"You can also..." The swordsman didn't finish his sentence, and then he couldn't continue.
Because he was supported by the surge of vitality, the meridians all over his body were swollen, and his body was growing bigger unconsciously.
Ten breaths later, the swordsman's enlarged body expanded into a ball and exploded with a bang.
Lu Qingchen, who was standing nearby and saw the whole process, took a deep breath.
