Chapter 553: Assassination on the Ancient Road, Killing with One Sword
The morning breeze was gentle, and people stopped at the gate of Xuyang City. Chu Feifan looked back with a sly smile on his lips.
"Set off!"
At the command, everyone jumped on the horse's back, tightened the reins in their hands, slapped the horse and neighed away.
On the official road, thousands of miles of poplar sand rose, and the figures of the people became increasingly blurred. At this time, He Lianhai's figure appeared at the gate of the city, with an anxious look on his face.
About a stick of incense later, Nie Xuanhai and He Lianxiao appeared at the city gate with dozens of Shijue palace disciples.
"Young Master, Mr. Nie, you are finally here!"
He Lian Hai quickly walked to the tall horse, looked up at He Lian Xiao, and said anxiously.
"Helian Hai, where are the people you asked to monitor?"
"Young Master, they have already left. They have been gone for a stick of incense."
Hear the sound.
He Lianxiao had a gloomy face, thought for a moment, and said: "Huayang City is ahead of us, just one day away from here. It seems that he will definitely settle in Huayang tonight."
"Mr. Nie, let's hurry up and follow them closely. We'll wait until we reach Huayang City to take their lives."
"That's all!"
The rumble of horse hoofs sounded, and the Shijue Palace group rode away with their horses whipped, disappearing outside Xuyang City in an instant.
............
At noon.
In a tea station on the official road in the wilderness, Chu Feifan and his party were resting here. Two tea station waiters unloaded the fragrant teapot and cakes.
Taking a sip of the tea in the cup, Chu Feifan was full of praise. The wilderness actually has such a mellow taste that can quench thirst and stimulate body fluids.
"Sir, although Laochan Tea Station is located in the wilderness, the tea and the spring water for making tea are of the highest quality. They all come to the lonely peak in the distance."
The old man had a kind face and an approachable look. He put down the teapot in his hand and said in a calm voice.
"The mountain springs are sweet and the tea leaves are unique."
"Although the old gentleman is an idle man in the countryside, he knows the true meaning of life. There are not many people who can have such a state of mind in troubled times."
For some reason, the calm aura of the old man in front of me always gave people a comfortable feeling. Perhaps it was his open-minded attitude.
for a long time.
The tea in the cup had cooled down, and everyone had been standing here for half an hour. Chu Feifan glanced sideways at Zhao Yun.
"Zilong, pay the old gentleman, we'll leave now!"
Zhao Yun stood up after receiving the order, took out a bag of broken silver from his arms and put it in the old man's hand. The crowd rose up and just about to walk out of the teahouse, the lone birds perched on the ancient trees on both sides flapped their wings crazily and flew into the void.
Dead leaves were flying on the ground and suspended in the void, and strong murderous aura came from all around. Chu Feifan squinted his eyes slightly, cold light flickered, and looked straight ahead.
"Whoa!"
"Whoa!"
"Whoa!"
Dozens of figures slid down in the void, their faces covered by iron helmets, their swords flickered with cold light, and a bone-eroding murderous aura lingered on their figures.
"There are assassins, protect the young master!"
Zhao Yunqing's sword was unsheathed, his feet touched the ground, his figure floated elegantly in the sky, and a sonorous voice sounded.
"Whoa!"
Zhao Yun took the lead, holding the Qingzhi sword tightly, and within a few breaths, his figure appeared in front of the killer.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
The clear and harsh sound of the clash of weapons came, Zhao Yun's white green shirt fluttered in the wind, and the green sword in his hand was as fast as a thunderous giant, curling up thousands of layers of sharp edges wherever it passed.
"kill!"
"kill!"
A thick and hoarse voice sounded, and the killers stepped out of the air and quickly surrounded Zhao Yun. The shadows of their swords stretched across the void, and the violent fighting caused waves of ripples.
Chu Feifan suddenly raised his head and looked at the treetops in the distance with sharp eyes. He saw dozens of warriors standing in the air with long swords on their backs, with vicious murderous intentions flashing under their iron helmets.
"Yan Yun's Eighteen Riders obey the order and kill all the assassins!"
"Whoa!"
"Whoa!"
"Whoa!"
The Purple Flame Sword was unsheathed, and the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun were as fast as the wind and as fast as fire. Sand and rocks flew up from the ground, and everyone's swords were held behind their backs, and they quickly rushed into the assassin formation.
Even though the enemy was outnumbered, Zhao Yun was still able to take the enemy general's head in the midst of thousands of troops, not to mention the dozens of assassins in front of him, but he didn't take it to heart at all.
at this time.
With the addition of Yan Yun's Eighteen Cavalry, he became even more skillful. The green sword rotated and pierced, and in an instant the three assassins died under his sword.
"The guardians of the left and right, behead Emperor Chu, and don't let him leave alive!"
The sinister voice of the leading man on the treetop sounded, and his sword-sharp eyes passed over Chu Feifan.
"Whoa!"
"Whoa!"
Two figures floated down from the sky, their arms spread out in the void, their swords unsheathed, their sharp edges radiating.
Looking at the two people attacking him, Chu Feifan glanced sideways at Lou Yanming and said, "Protect the old gentleman."
The words fell.
Chu Feifan's figure fluttered, turning into an afterimage and attacking the two assassins. The long sword on his waist was unsheathed, and his eyes were filled with the intention of killing.
He originally thought that the person who came to attack him was someone from the Emperor's Box No. 1, but he didn't expect that he was someone from the Sword Sect.
It seems that Yan Yunshi and Wei Feng have secretly colluded for a long time. They surrendered to Chu just to relax themselves and replace them.
Now that Ba Meng is leading the army to Prince Mingfeng's Mansion, the two of them are afraid that they will jump over the wall and want to take this opportunity to get rid of themselves.
"Whoa!"
"Whoa!"
The long swords in the hands of the two guardians of the Sword Sect were like swimming dragons. The sword light was sharp and cunning, and their moves were deadly. Chu Feifan's eyes narrowed slightly, and a terrifying murderous aura appeared on his figure.
"You two are good at swordsmanship, but they are too slow. I will let you see the real way of swordsmanship!"
"Nine unique sword skills, killing!"
Chu Feifan was calm and composed, as if he were a flying phoenix, and his sword was like a startling giant. Two sword lights flew out in succession, and the two sword sect protectors who were attacking him were torn into pieces.
The thick blood mist rose in the sky, and Wei Feng's eyes on the branch were full of astonishment. The two guardians were already top masters in the Sword Sect, and their understanding of the sword was at its peak. However, they did not expect that the two of them were not the same as Emperor Chu.
The enemy of unity.
Panic.
Shock.
Confused.
Wei Feng had a lot of emotions in his heart, and the two guardians fell. He knew that he was no match for Emperor Chu. At present, if he wanted to complete the task, he could only rely on the two Sword Sect Masters beside him.
But the two of them only obeyed the master of the Mingjian Sect, and they would not take action when their own lives were not in danger.
Chu Feifan killed the two guardians with one sword, and his figure flew up, with a look of anger that broke through the sky. His body stretched across the void, and the sword blade pointed directly at Wei Feng.
"Young Sect Master, withdraw!"
"The old sect leader said that we cannot be enemies with Emperor Chu, as it will bring disaster to the Sword Sect. Leave immediately and don't risk the lives of the Sword Sect's disciples."
The hoarse voice of a Venerable came, with a cold look on his face and a look of disgust in his eyes.
The Sword Sect is located on Yuheng Mountain outside Prince Mingfeng's Mansion. It has always been ignorant of worldly affairs, and all its disciples only concentrate on practicing swordsmanship.
But because Wei Feng's current disciples of the Sword Sect have become killing tools in his hands.
Wei Feng was not like this at all before, but ever since he met the empress Yan Yunshi, his whole person was completely obsessed and he followed her orders wholeheartedly.
Knowing that Emperor Chu was invincible, he still brought people to assassinate him. Wasn't this asking for death?
