With one of the two silver cicadas dead and the other seriously injured, the last eternal life candle was snatched away by Jiang Ran.
Those who survived the Blood Cicada finally knew that the situation was over.
Taking advantage of Jiang Ran's lack of skills and time to estimate their moment, they all jumped up and tried to escape.
Shen Tulie, Yan Wushuang and others reacted immediately and immediately issued orders to keep everyone behind.
Master Dao Que couldn't continue to watch the show here, so he quickly took action and killed as many people as he could.
But even so, there were so many blood cicadas coming this time that it was impossible to keep them all.
Seeing that the blood cicadas were about to leave, shouts of killing suddenly came from all directions.
A disciple of the Blood Sword Hall, dressed in red and holding a single sword, has been waiting for him for a long time.
The chaos gradually subsided, and it came to a successful conclusion.
At this point, no one left here by Xue Chan will be left alive. They will either die or be captured alive.
They were all held aside and awaited orders.
The eldest princess, Emperor Jin Chan, Dao Que and others surrounded the leader Yin Chan, preparing to take off his mask and see his true face in Lushan.
Jiang Ran came to Jian Wusheng.
Looking up, down, left and right, Jian Wusheng opened his eyelids and said in a voice like a mosquito:
"You...if you want to save me, just save me...if you don't save me...just go away...
"It's okay, what are you looking at?"
"What are you looking at?"
Jiang Ranle: "I don't believe it. At this moment, can you still wield your Seven Swords of Inanimate Life?"
"..."
Jian Wusheng gritted his teeth for a moment.
Only then did I realize how hateful Jiang Ran was.
Fortunately, although Jiang Ran is abhorrent in some places, he can still do what needs to be done.
After he finished teasing Menzi, he stretched out his hand and pressed it on Jian Wusheng's back.
His body was now in chaos, with Song Wei's sword energy and Jian Wusheng's internal force fighting endlessly within his body.
Jiang Ran sent out a palm, and his two internal forces were completely suppressed by his overbearing and unreasonable internal energy.
Jian Wusheng couldn't help but scream.
He still wanted to speak, but waves of sword light flew out from his heart.
Chi chi chi, chi chi chi.
The sword intent flew away, cutting the ground in front of him into pieces.
However, in this way, the sword energy in his body was completely knocked out.
However, after this battle, Jian Wusheng's vitality was severely damaged, and it would not take a day or two to recover.
Jiang Ran conveniently applied a hemostatic and muscle-building ointment on his wound, then picked him up and returned to the eldest princess and others.
It turned out that these people were motionless and were all looking at Yin Chan, whose mask had been taken off.
Jiang Ran was a little puzzled. He glanced at him and found that this man was indeed not young.
I'm afraid he must be a few years older than Xu Mu.
However, he takes good care of himself. Although his hair is white, it is meticulous, and there are no age spots on his face, which is neatly taken care of.
He is a very clean and refined old man.
Jiang Ran coughed:
"Do you know this person?"
Yin Chan was already unconscious at this time.
Jiang Ran's sword was obviously not so easy to take.
After hearing Jiang Ran's words, Emperor Jin Chan didn't want to answer at first, but he glanced at the eldest princess and finally sighed:
"He is...my imperial uncle."
When he said this, it was actually a bit difficult.
It would have been fine if it was someone else, but I didn't expect that Yin Chan turned out to be a member of their royal family.
People in the royal family want to kill him... As an emperor, his heart is naturally quite complicated.
According to his opinion, this matter should not be told to Jiang Ran.
But... when I thought about the fact that there was an eldest princess beside me who was a little traitor, and thinking that even if I didn't tell him, I would be betrayed by this prodigal girl, I simply admitted it directly.
Jiang Ran suddenly realized:
"Uncle Emperor...then this will be a bit troublesome."
He touched his chin and said:
"However, even if you are a relative of the emperor, you cannot easily forgive things like rebellion, right?
"Let's do this. You uncle and nephew have a deep love for each other. If you can't bear to take action, just hand him over to me. Let me examine him carefully and see how many of this bloody cicada are still lurking in the capital."
"...It's not necessary."
Emperor Jin Chan said with a dark face:
"Where does the family love come from in Tianjia?
"Let alone uncle and nephew, what if they are father and son?"
"Finally admitted it."
The eldest princess glanced at Jiang Ran:
"How about you save me from this dire straits?"
Emperor Jin Chan's face turned even darker.
After just looking at Jiang Ran, he took a deep breath:
"What's going on with the blood cicada?
"What happened today?
"You can finally have a good talk with me at this time, right?"
Now that the matter has come to this, there is no need to hide it, and in fact, it is not suspicious of Emperor Jin Chan to hide it from the beginning.
I'm just worried that he won't believe me, and I'm even more worried that he's entrusting me with something wrong.
At this time, it is even more unnecessary to continue hiding it.
Immediately, the eldest princess explained the matter in such and such a manner.
Emperor Jin Chan was indeed furious:
"What a bloody cicada!!!
"The ancestors founded the Blood Chan to protect our Golden Chan dynasty.
"But I didn't expect that they would be so bold. It's really unreasonable!"
After scolding Xue Chan, he glared at Jiang Ran again:
"You are so brave.
"You know clearly the ambition of Xue Chan Lang Zi, but you still dare to plan like this, using me as bait to lure them into taking the bait!
"What if I have an accident?"
"Then it's natural to rise up and support the eldest princess's succession to the throne.
"If the prince dares to disobey, I will break his legs again.
"When the Queen ascends the throne and sweeps across the world, the world will be unified and all people will be happy."
Jiang Ran didn't even think about it.
Emperor Jin Chan was so angry that he was dizzy and pointed, but in the end he didn't say a harsh word.
Although he is the emperor, everyone in the world should listen to him.
But the problem is that it is inevitable that there will be a few unconvinced thorns occasionally.
And no one can control this thorn because Jiang Ran is a master of martial arts... so you have to follow him.
Otherwise, he would really dare to assassinate Wang Shajia.
The eldest princess rolled her eyes at Jiang Ran:
"Okay, stop talking nonsense...what should we do now?"
Jiang Ran curled his lips and glanced at Dao Que:
"You didn't work hard when I was in the military, but now that I'm in the civil service, you have to give me some advice."
Dao Que pinched his beard and said:
"There's nothing to say about this matter... Since he is a member of the royal family, he naturally cannot flow into the world.
"This person still needs to be brought back to the capital by the emperor and tortured.
"The cancer of the blood cicada must be uncovered no matter what."
Emperor Jin Chan nodded:
"What the Imperial Master said is true."
"That's it, then I'll listen to you."
Jiang Ran said:
"Take the people back to the capital, and I will take the eldest princess to the Qing Kingdom.
"Let's just say goodbye."
Jiang Ran's words surprised the eldest princess.
This kind of happiness is not like Jiang Ran's personality.
But since he said so, everyone naturally had no objections and reached an agreement.
Jiang Ran threw Jian Wusheng to Dao Que:
"You two seem to be on the same page, so just take him back to Dao Yizong and take care of him for two days."
Master Dao Que quickly caught the person, their eyes met, Jian Wusheng thought for a moment and asked:
"Do you have any female Taoist priests in your Taoist sect?"
Master Dao Que was stunned for a moment, then nodded thoughtfully:
"Let's go, Pindao will take you to a good place. I promise to find you a Feng Shui treasure land..."
As he spoke, he took out the compass from his waist.
Judging from the posture, he planned to find a geomantic treasure place and bury Jian Wusheng directly.
Jian Wusheng was worthy of having been in the arena for so many years. Seeing this, he quickly said:
"A joke, a joke, wasn't I just kidding? Old Taoist priest, why are you so nervous?"
After losing his temper, Dao Que gave up his beautiful vision of burying him on the spot.
After a great battle, the sky turned dark.
As soon as everyone gathered together, they simply decided not to leave tonight and set up camp nearby.
After a night's rest, the emperor will return to Beijing tomorrow, and Jiang Ran will lead the eldest princess and her party directly to Buli Village.
After the meeting, they rushed to Qingguo.
Things settled down happily.
But when Jiang Ran wanted to talk to Uncle Yinchan at night, he found that this guy had been unconscious the whole time.
Just had to give up.
When I came out of the tent, I saw Yan Wushuang standing outside the tent at some point.
Her long hair reached her ankles, her white clothes were as white as snow, and she was standing there staring at the sky.
After seeing Jiang Ran come out, he dragged Jiang Ran away...
This night was calmer than ever.
The only unsettling part was that several people who wanted to find Jiang Ran couldn't find him.
Shen Tu Lie drank two bowls of wine and wanted to find Jiang Ran to study the matter of revenge.
But after walking around the temporary camp several times, no trace of Jiang Ran was found.
Instead, he met Xu Mu who was also looking for Jiang Ran.
The master and apprentice finally chatted all night.
The other person who wants to find Jiang Ran is the eldest princess.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find it after searching for it, so I had to give up in the end.
He calmly returned to his tent and slept.
And the next morning, Jiang Ran, who had been nowhere to be found last night, appeared inexplicably.
The eldest princess immediately questioned him, and Jiang Ran said naturally that he was sleeping in the tent.
The eldest princess was extremely angry, but there was nothing she could do about him.
Shen Tulie, who had been talking to Xu Muchang all night, did not say anything to Jiang Ran. He was just counting his personnel early in the morning and preparing to go back.
However, Xu Mu found Jiang Ran and made an unkind request.
He wants to go to Qingguo with Jiang Ran.
The reason is that I hope to be able to stay with Jiang Ran, accumulate more experience in the world, and at the same time have a good look at the world.
Jiang Ran thought for a moment and agreed.
When it was time to say goodbye, Jiang Ran found Emperor Jin Chan.
Ask him directly for money.
Emperor Jin Chan still wanted to renege on his debt, saying that he was escorting the eldest princess on this trip. How could he have so much money with him?
If you want money, you have to go back to Yuwen Subaru.
After all, he is the Minister of the Ministry of Finance.
However, because of Yuwen Ting's incident, it's hard to say how many days Yuwen Pleiar will be able to serve as Minister of Household Affairs.
Finally, under Jiang Ran's coercion and intimidation, Emperor Jin Chan tearfully took out 20,000 taels of silver, saying that he really couldn't afford the rest.
So he had no choice but to write an imperial edict, asking Jiang Ran to collect debts from city to city while escorting the eldest princess to Qingguo.
After Jiang Ran thought for a moment, he didn't continue to embarrass him.
After all, what the emperor said was right. Why would you bring so much money when you go out to escort the eldest princess?
There is no such truth, so in the end I took the imperial edict and the 20,000 taels of silver.
After careful consideration, I gave Song Wei and Tiansha Divine Sword two tasks.
The remaining Yuwenting, the giant man, the bloody Cicada Yi who was killed by his punch, and the old imperial uncle were left.
All we can do is wait for them to be picked up one after another on the road.
After the matter was settled, Jiang Ran called for Xuanyuan Yida again, gave a few serious instructions, and then asked Baizhenhui, Shanhai, the people from Blood Sword Hall, Dao Que, and Jian Wusheng to escort the emperor back.
Beijing.
The two sides said goodbye in the middle of the road.
Finally, the emperor sat on the chariot and walked away.
Jiang Ran stood there and looked at it quietly for a while.
The eldest princess was a little confused, so she leaned next to him and followed the direction of his gaze.
It was discovered that Yan Wushuang turned around from time to time and looked at Jiang Ran with a look that was both free and easy, but also reluctant.
For a moment, I vaguely understood something in my heart.
But she was not a little girl, so she didn't say anything. Instead, she lowered her head and pondered, not knowing what she was thinking.
After seeing off the emperor and his party, Jiang Ran led the eldest princess and her party directly to Buli Village.
The Xue Chan people here have already been dealt with by Tang Shiqing.
In front of the two masters of the Demon Sect, these so-called masters of the Blood Cicada are really not worth mentioning.
After the two sides met, they set off directly towards Qing Country without stopping for a moment.
This journey was extremely peaceful.
It seems that Xue Chan's troubles have finally come to an end. There is no Jing Mie Pavilion, no Wangchen Island, and no assassins from Wu Sheng Tower have appeared.
As the saying goes, words are long and words are short. Two months passed in the blink of an eye.
In the past two months, not only had spring blossomed, but they had also stepped out of the Golden Cicada border and completely entered the realm of Qing Country.
Because of the special status of the eldest princess, even though she arrived in the Qing Kingdom, she never faced any difficulties.
Let them move forward.
It wasn't until they reached a place called Jiahe City in Qingguo that they were blocked.
Jiang Ran sat on the horse, looked up at the guard above the city gate, and told them their origins and the purpose of their trip according to the script.
And when the city guard heard the words "Princess Jin Chan" from Jiang Ran's mouth, he immediately waved his hand and shouted loudly without even thinking about it:
"Fire the arrow! Leave no one behind!!!"
Jiang Ran was really shocked when this turned out to be true.
It wasn't just him, this journey was so smooth that everyone forgot that they were in an enemy country.
He waited for the rain of arrows to fall from the sky before he came back to his senses.
Among Jiang Ran and his group, there were also military retinues. The leader of the group was named Wang, Wang Jingyuan!
He reacted immediately and shouted angrily:
"Arrange with shields!!!"
Immediately, the surrounding soldiers immediately held shields, trying to block the rain of arrows.
However, it was too late at this moment.
The group of people above the city had obviously been waiting for them here for a long time.
As soon as the identity is confirmed, the killer will come out immediately.
No matter how quick Wang Jingyuan's reaction was, it was still not as fast as the rain of arrows that filled the sky. He was about to fall.
A strong wind suddenly circulated, and Jiang Ran was seen sitting on the horse, with his hands separated, one left and one right, one up and down, and the inner strength of his whole body exploded.
It actually pulled out an extremely huge circle of Gangqi, protecting everyone present within it.
The arrows shot from the top of the city landed on this strong energy and flew away immediately, faster and more urgently.
So much so that under the rain of arrows from this discussion, Jiang Ran and others were not harmed.
On the contrary, the soldiers on top of the city suffered heavy losses.
Seeing this, the guard on top of the city also had red eyes and shouted angrily:
"Open the city gate and follow my general to charge!!!"
He said that he was about to go down, but at this moment, a figure suddenly arrived.
His shoulders were already clasped in one stroke:
"Who are you going to fight with? Don't you understand what I say? We are the Golden Chan Mission. The eldest princess went to Qingguo in person for the sake of peace between the two countries.
"Do you want to reignite the war and make the people miserable?"
"Peace between the two countries? The war has long been reignited! Not long ago, Jin Chan ignored the agreement between the two countries and took the lead in launching an attack to take down Zhenyang Pass!
“Then the army suddenly advanced into our Qing Kingdom, burning, killing, and looting!
"Where can we find peace between the two countries?
"The Emperor has given an order. The eldest princess and her entourage are part of Jin Chan's trick. The purpose is to divert our attention so that Jin Chan can drive straight in and order us to kill without mercy when we see Jin Chan's envoy!!!"
When the general said this, he shouted angrily, pulled out his saber from his waist, and struck it down hard.
Jiang Ran was slightly stunned when he heard what he said.
He casually held the Zhanma Dao:
"What did you say? Stop talking nonsense."
The general summoned all his strength, but was unable to move Jiang Ran's two fingers, and for a moment his whole face turned green with pain.
He gritted his teeth and said:
"Such a huge event...how can I just talk nonsense?
"Guan Changqing defeated Zhenyang Pass and rushed eight hundred miles to the capital...
"Ah ah ah, I will fight with you!!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Ran knocked him to the ground with a casual blow.
At the same time, shouts of killing came from the city.
But the order just now did not stop, and the officers and soldiers in the city poured out one after another and rushed towards the mission.
Jiang Ran stared at the scene in front of him, thinking a little, and without thinking too much, he flew to the front of the mission.
There were so many people that it was impossible to kill them all, and even after the general died, this group of people was still fighting hard.
In other words, unless they are all killed, there is no meaning.
Jiang Ran immediately shouted angrily:
"Follow me!!!"
He charged forward, and with his superb martial arts, these ordinary soldiers were no match for him.
He immediately fought his way out and led the envoy to escape the pursuit of the city's defenders.
After the pursuit stopped, the group of people got together and wanted to discuss it, but after many discussions, they could not come up with a solution.
They were now in the Qing Kingdom and had no idea what Jin Chan was doing or why Guan Changqing suddenly took action.
Jiang Ran simply took Tang Huayi and went into the city to investigate to see if he could find out any other information.
As a result, as soon as the two people entered the city, they actually heard a piece of news... They were also shocked and speechless by the news.
An urgent report came this morning. Two days ago, the Emperor of the Qing Kingdom passed away, and the eldest prince, Wanyan Buming, succeeded to the throne!
