In all fairness, Li Tianyou's decision was extremely difficult. From the beginning, he had never thought that he would say something like this.
All along, he had been wary of Liu Dabiao and Chen Fan, who seemed to be idle and would occasionally help the Tyrant's Saber Camp. However, no matter what, he had to kill Ning Liheng. This was the most resolute decision he had ever made.
Such a decision required a lot of consideration. However, since he had come to the Four Seasons Temple today, it meant that he was already mentally prepared. He had considered the counterattack of the Tyrant's Saber Camp if he killed this person regardless of the cost. He was prepared to endure it. This determination had been shown from the moment he went upstairs. This was also why he had been unwilling to pay attention to the attitudes of Zhu Yanlin and the others from the beginning. He wanted to take this scholar's life before the Tyrant's Saber Camp could react. Then, no matter how domineering the Tyrant's Saber Camp was, he would have to suffer this loss.
However, he was too idealistic. In the end, he realized that there were indeed many things that were beyond his calculations. Or rather, it could be said that he had underestimated the extent of the things that were originally within his calculations.
He had expected that Ning Liheng and the people around him would resist. He had also expected that there would be spectators. However, what he had to pay attention to in the end was the reaction of these two people in an extremely extreme situation.
Ning Liheng and this young man did not have a chance. In the end, they probably would not have a chance. No matter what, Zhu Yanlin and the others would not dare to interfere. Perhaps Lou Jingzhi could speak, but it seemed that she would not. If he still insisted on letting the people around him swarm at this time, the result would not change. However, the young man's desperation was too much. There were forty to fifty spectators at this time. There were scholars and famous prostitutes in the brothel. They did not dare to say anything now, but the public opinion would definitely spread today's situation.
He had never been afraid of being called arrogant and domineering. As Li Tianrun's brother, even if he was humble and cautious, others would say that he had relied on nepotism to get to where he was today. However, at this moment, as he looked at the expressions of the crowd, Li Tianyou suddenly realized that in the mouths of the bystanders, this young man had turned from a passerby into a loyal and righteous man. He did not care how the bystanders viewed him, but he could not ignore how the Tyrant Blade Camp viewed him.
What would happen if he disregarded everything and killed Ning Liheng? The Tyrant Saber Camp would not let him off, and Liu Dabiao would cause trouble for him. However, in the end, there was no turning back. Both sides had to look at the big picture, and this grudge had to be resolved. However, if word got out that he had killed such a loyal young man from the Tyrant's Saber Camp, it would be a completely different story.
The former could be said to be a slap in the face, but it could be resolved in the end. If it was the latter, it would be a solid slap in the face. In the eyes of others, the entire Tyrant's Saber Camp would lose face. At that time, it would really lead to an all-out war between the Tyrant's Saber Camp and the Proclamation Might Camp. After all, he was Li Tianrun's younger brother. He still had to take into consideration the fact that he would cause trouble for his elder brother.
If Liu Jin had fought with a little more propriety, or if his own people had restrained him from the beginning, or if he had really listened to Ning Yi and left, it would not have been so tragic, and the following problems would not have happened …
When he thought of this, Wenren Bu 'er had also just realized it. However, when he thought that there might be a chance of survival, Li Tianyou had already stood up to speak. Compared to Li Tianyou, who was determined to kill Ning Yi from the beginning, Wenren Bu 'er had been thinking about how to turn things around. Li Tianyou had been so determined. Even if he put himself on the spot, he was afraid that he would still die. It was precisely because of this thought that he suddenly thought of a strange idea.
Ning Liheng, who calculated every ten steps … This was an evaluation of Ning Yi that he had once inquired about. It was also because of this that he had a glimmer of hope in the beginning. Perhaps he might not be able to do anything, but this scholar, who had created miracles in Taiping Alley and Huzhou side, could be quick-witted and use his glib tongue to dispel Li Tianyou's murderous thoughts. Unfortunately, from the very beginning, he maintained the attitude of a despairing bachelor.
The scholar lifted his saber and was ready to fight with his life. Especially when Liu Jin had scolded him so fiercely that Li Tianyou's side had suddenly attacked, Wenren Bu 'er had basically given up on this idea. It was indeed just a scholar's desperate move. With such recklessness, there was no possibility for Li Tianyou to wake up. In his heart, he even secretly cursed Liu Jin for ruining things. However, at this moment, when he saw the consequences that Liu Jin had exchanged for with such a tragic image, he suddenly … was stunned.
Facing the situation of more than ten people who were eyeing him like tigers watching their prey, it was actually unnecessary for him to be so resolute in killing the spear-wielding man. Killing one to gain one? Actually, it was impossible to kill the other party. At that time, Ning Yi had indeed attacked without holding back, and it was reckless and desperate. But what if … he had done it on purpose?
Ten steps of calculation … Wenren Bu 'er could only infer the reason from the result that he had seen after the incident. However, if there was such a person in the world, he would have seen the general situation from the very beginning. He had almost used instigating methods to lead everything to a tragic and stirring direction. He had used desperate means to forcefully confirm the fact that the Xuanwei Camp had bullied the few by outnumbering them. From a strategic point of view, perhaps only the Dominator's Saber Camp was the bargaining chip that could truly make Li Tianyou fear. Even though Li Tianyou had already thrown caution to the wind, Wenren Bu 'er still pushed Li Tianyou's fear bit by bit. Just looking at a direction, Wenren Bu' er risked his life to tear out a slim chance of survival.
This was just a sudden thought in his heart. Whether it was true or not, it might not be able to be verified. However, looking at the scholar who was holding a saber and standing with an indifferent expression in the face of death, he still faintly felt a little scared. Even when he was in a dangerous situation, the person he had wanted to arrange was a maid by his side. Such a person couldn't really be indifferent to life and death.
However, even if there was a slim chance of survival, on second thought, it was still too slim. At this time, if one really had to evaluate, Ning Yi might have the bravery of a common man when he used a saber or a soldier. However, from what had happened just now, it could be seen that he might have some means, but he didn't have any method. Although he had exerted a lot of strength, it was just a desperate struggle. Ordinary people would be afraid of him, but compared to these people in front of him, he was still much weaker.
After all, the image of a scholar that Ning Yi had given to people was too deep. For people like Li Tianyou who wanted to kill him, he knew every move of Ning Yi in the Academy like the back of his hand. He was good at scheming, dared to risk his life, and could stay calm at the critical moment. He was already very different from ordinary scholars. However, even so, how could he escape from this deadly situation tonight?
"I, Li Tianyou … will fight with you alone. If you can kill me today, you can walk out of here alive! "
Li Tianyou, who had stopped everyone from fighting, said. Wenren Bu 'er's heart thumped. If she could kill Li Tianyou here, the outcome between the Tyrant's Blade Camp and the Declaring Might Camp would be even more ideal. In such a chaotic situation, she would have a higher chance of transferring Ning Liheng and the maid, Xiaochan, out of the city. As he thought of this, he saw that Ning Yi's gaze had also quietly swept over here.
"Really?"
However, such an ideal situation didn't happen. The man who was called Hero Luo by Qin Gu Lai, who was standing at the side, said, "General Li, we are all here. How can we let the commander-in-chief fight with someone else? Let me take the life of this scoundrel. "
The people at the side had long felt that they had lost face, and they all said,
"Let me do it."
"If General Li takes action, will we still have the face to live?!"
"I also have a blood feud with this guy. I only recognized him just now … If you want to fight one-on-one, please let me do it! I'll take his life. "
As the crowd talked, an iron-tower-like man suddenly thought of something and came out to ask for the order. The crowd was also a little confused, but as they listened to his words, they knew that when Fang La's army attacked Hangzhou, this man was also one of the vanguards sent into the city. When they were destroying the city, a scholar threw a stone at him from across the river. The stone didn't hit him, but it directly smashed the head of a brother beside him. Only then did he recognize Ning Yi.
"If that's the case, I'll let you take revenge for your brother!" Li Tianyou thought for a while and made a decision. "Surnamed Ning, take revenge today. You two fight one-on-one. Don't say that the Declaring Might Camp bullied you! If you can keep your life, I'll let you go today. What's wrong with that? " He knew that the man beside him was called Tang Kou. Although he wasn't the best in martial arts, he was the cruelest and most bloodthirsty person. He wasn't afraid of risking his life. It was indeed ideal to fight against this scholar who dared to risk his life.
"Take revenge for your brother? Then who will avenge the woman and child you killed? " As Li Tianyou spoke, Tang Kou had already pulled out his steel saber and walked toward Ning Yi. Ning Yi narrowed his eyes and then said to Li Tianyou, "Are you serious? You won't interfere? "
"Of, of course." Li Tianyou said word by word. Before his voice died away, Ning Yi, who had been confronting them, suddenly made an unexpected reaction. He turned his head and broke into a run! As he ran, he threw a chair and extinguished the burning lamp on the ceiling not far away.
Li Tianyou almost burst out laughing. He suddenly roared, "Soldiers, listen up! Don't even let a mosquito out! If anyone tries to break out, kill him! "
His voice resounded through the entire building. He said that he would let Ning Yi fight one-on-one in the name of not bullying with numbers. He didn't really mean that he would stick to the rules. If Ning Yi thought that he was a pedantic person and wanted to use the agreement that no one would make a move to escape, the people outside would swarm up and kill him. He didn't mind that at all.
As he shouted, Tang Kou also laughed and rushed out. Although he was tall and sturdy, when he chased after Ning Yi, he was like a cannonball. The crowd had only just reacted when he threw a table away. His footsteps were like thunder, and in the blink of an eye, he had caught up to Ning Yi who was running. Ning Yi suddenly jumped and flew to the bottom of the table in front of him. Tang Kou slashed with his saber and the wooden splinters on the table flew everywhere. His body also slammed the table forward. The square table hit the square table in front of him. Ning Yi rolled a few times under the table and stood up. He slammed the two tables toward him and lifted the second table to hit his upper body. Tang Kou's figure paused for a moment, but the next moment, he slammed the two tables at the same time with a fierce momentum!
The saber light flickered and sparks appeared in the air. It was only two slashes, but Ning Yi's arm strength was not enough and he was forced to retreat. He chose the side with more obstacles and ran around the surrounding tables and chairs. He lifted the bench and smashed it toward his opponent's head. However, his opponent waved it away with one hand and the bench broke into two halves in the air.
Just now, when Ning Yi and Liu Jin fought against the spear-wielding man, it had reached its peak in an instant. In the eyes of the crowd, it was nothing more than the process of talking, fighting, and talking. Both sides had come to an agreement, and only then did they start fighting. However, at this moment, it had suddenly unfolded. Ning Yi's escape and intention caused the crowd to be somewhat puzzled, but what followed was already a head-on clash of strength. Blade light danced, and the iron tower-like giant crazily closed in. The scholar was after all only relying on his valiance. In the blink of an eye, his body seemed to have been slashed by a blade, and the lower hem of his robe was slashed.
Wenren Bu 'Er noticed that Ning Yi was heading towards a dark place on the second floor. He had purposely extinguished the lamp there. Nobody knew if he was trying to turn the surroundings into darkness, or if he was trying to carry out some kind of trick. Considering Ning Yi's glance, he had already followed him. On the other side, Li Tianyou snorted and waved his hand to move forward.
"Surround him, don't let him escape!"
More than a dozen people closed in together. They did not attack but only narrowed the circle, because Ning Yi was already close to the window of the Four Seasons Temple. They were wary of him escaping recklessly. In the circle, the two of them fought again. Ning Yi staggered backward while Tang Kou kicked out. Ning Yi hurriedly blocked the kick with his hands and flew backward. With a loud bang, he broke through a door and fell into the private room of the Four Seasons Temple.
At this moment, the lights outside were not very bright. The private rooms on the side of the floor were not lit, so it was even darker inside. Wenren Bu 'er suddenly saw an opportunity and quickly walked to the side. "Ah!" Tang Kou shouted and rushed in. The sound of metal clashing could be heard. Li Tianyou and the others quickly approached the broken door. He wanted to shout for the people around to be on guard, but he heard Tang Kou's laughter coming from inside.
"Haha!"
