"Madam Ruan is really thoughtful. Congratulations on adding another capable assistant." On the way to the King of Shu's Mansion, Ren Yingying said with a faint smile.
Song Qingshu said grumpily, "Come on, you are obviously worried about Linghu Chong now, but you pretend to be calm to tease me."
Ren Yingying hurriedly explained, "I …"
Song Qingshu pressed her lips and said, "Humans are not plants or trees. Even if you keep a cat or a dog for a long time, you will develop feelings, let alone a human. Don't be too anxious and think that you can't forget him. Don't blame yourself for this. It's all human nature. "
Ren Yingying looked at him deeply and said, "Song, it's my greatest luck to meet you in this life." She was not lying. No other man in this world could be so calm and magnanimous. The time they had spent together with Linghu Chong before had become a thorn in their hearts. Only Song Qingshu had not only let it go, but he had also come to comfort her.
Song Qingshu couldn't help laughing, "If it was two years ago, you wouldn't believe it yourself. At that time, you wanted to kill me."
Ren Yingying couldn't help laughing when he reminded her of the past. She blushed and said coquettishly, "You were such a rascal at that time."
Murong Fu, Three Emotions Taoist Shen Xiaolong, Yang Juyuan and more than 70 people directly rushed into the King of Shu's Mansion. The guards outside did not stop them because Zhang Lin and Zhu Bangning were Garrison Generals, so they let them in.
However, they were not the only guards in the King of Shu's Mansion. When they reached the inner layer, they were stopped by another Garrison General, "Who trespassed into the King of Shu's Palace?"
At this time, Jinshi Yang Junyu directly took out the imperial edict, "By the will of Heaven, the Emperor decrees …" It listed a total of 20 crimes of Wu Xi's treason and specially appointed Murong Fu as the Pacification Envoy to suppress the rebellion, saying that only the leader would be punished, and the rest would not be investigated.
The guards listened and looked at each other. In the end, no one knew who took the lead, but they all dispersed.
Shen Xiaolong and the others were even more shocked. He'd originally thought that there would be a bitter battle here, but who would have imagined that these guards would actually surrender without a fight? Could it be that everyone was on the side of the imperial court and was unwilling to be coerced by Wu Xi to commit treason? Now that there was a chance, everyone wanted to set things right?
However, he did not have the time to study this problem. Instead, he led a group of people and rushed into the inner residence.
"What are you doing?" It was so noisy outside that Wu Xi finally heard the commotion and walked out of the bedroom. Seeing a group of people rushing over aggressively, she couldn't help but be surprised.
"You've betrayed the country and proclaimed yourself the King of Shu. We've come together to kill you. Hand over your life!" Murong Fu reprimanded in a stern voice. Without waiting for the other party to reply, he drew his sword and stabbed towards Wu Xi's vital points.
Wu Xi opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but seeing that the other party was using a killing move, he didn't dare to be negligent and hurriedly drew his sword to meet the attack. In the blink of an eye, the two of them had exchanged seven or eight moves.
Yang Juyuan, who was at the side, shouted, "This traitor's martial arts are superior. Everyone, let's attack together. We're getting rid of a scourge for the country, there's no need to follow the rules of the pugilistic world!" With that said, he brandished his sword and rushed forward.
The military warrior Li Gui, the pugilistic hero Lai Fu, and a large group of people rushed forward at the same time. However, Wu Xi's swordsmanship was indeed incomparably brilliant. A snow-white flower of the sword floated in all directions, followed by continuous screams of pain. Some were blocking the ground, some were holding their bleeding wrists and retreating, and some were covering their eyes and wailing in pain.
After a few exchanges, those with inferior martial arts were heavily injured and retreated from the battlefield. In the end, only Murong Fu, Yang Juyuan, Li Gui, and Lai Fu were left to surround Wu Xi.
Shen Xiaolong, who was at the side, secretly frowned. He felt that there was something strange about today's events. Whether it was the guards that he thought would be heavily guarded, or Wu Xi's hesitant expression just now, there seemed to be something wrong.
However, the cries of surprise that rang out in the field woke him up. Even though they were outnumbered, Wu Xi's swordsmanship was too brilliant, and she was gradually gaining the upper hand. Murong Fu was able to protect himself, but Yang Juyuan, Li Gui, and Lai Fu already had a few wounds on their bodies. If it weren't for the fact that their martial arts were not weak and they managed to avoid being hit in their vitals, they might have already been lying on the ground.
"Brother Shen, why aren't you attacking?" Yang Juyuan cried out in alarm. However, just as he was distracted, another bloody hole appeared on his body, and he hurriedly focused on defense.
Seeing that Wu Xi's every move was ruthless and fatal, Shen Xiaolong felt that he was thinking too much and hurriedly drew his sword to attack.
"Fate comes and goes, fate is like water, feelings gather and scatter, where do they go ~" Hearing him recite a poem, whether it was Yang Juyuan or Murong Fu, they both cursed in their hearts, thinking, 'What the f * ck is this, why is he still so showy!'
However, Shen Xiaolong's martial arts were really not for show. His swordsmanship was as smooth as flowing water, and as soon as he joined in, the pressure on everyone was greatly reduced. In the end, it was basically Murong Fu who was in charge of defense, Shen Xiaolong who was in charge of offense, and Yang Juyuan and a few others who were waiting for an opportunity to attack.
Wu Xi secretly frowned. These people were all experts, especially Murong Fu's fake Revolving Star Passage Technique, which was best at borrowing force to attack force. If he was a little careless, his sword would be moved to the side. Shen Xiaolong's swordsmanship was as smooth as flowing water at one moment, like the clouds and mist in the next, with very few openings. Occasionally, he would reveal one or two openings, but they would disappear in a flash under the cover of the others, making it impossible for him to counterattack.
On the side, there was still a group of soldiers eyeing him covetously. Wu Xi knew that if this went on, he would be in danger. Unfortunately, although he understood, he was powerless to change it.
At this moment, two voices suddenly came from the courtyard door. "Brother Linghu (Brother Linghu), I'm here to help you!"
Everyone turned around and saw a little nun and a sadhu rushing over.
"Who are they?"
"Who is this Brother Linghu they are talking about?"
…
After all, not everyone knew Wu Xi's true identity. The two of them took advantage of this moment when everyone was distracted. The sadhu took out a quick knife and forced Yang Juyuan, Li Gui, and Lai Fu to the side. The little nun waved a long sword and directly blocked the Three Emotions Taoist Priest Shen Xiaolong. Although it was obvious that her internal energy was insufficient, her swordsmanship was tight and flawless, and for a moment, she caught the other party off guard.
These two people were naturally Tian Boguang and Yi Lin. In fact, in terms of martial arts, Yang Juyuan and the other two were no weaker than Tian Boguang. The reason why he could temporarily fight one against three was largely because all three of them were injured. In addition, seeing that his knife was sharp, they could not figure out his strength in a short time, so they did not dare to be careless.
As for Yi Lin, the reason why she could block Shen Xiaolong was because he saw such a delicate and pitiful little nun and could not bear to hurt her.
However, this made things difficult for Murong Fu. Originally, it was five against one, but now it had become one against one. Wu Xi was also angry, and every move she made was merciless. He had to be 120% vigilant and use his daily skills to barely protect himself, but in his heart, he cursed Shen Xiaolong half to death.
Shen Xiaolong was also in a difficult position. He frowned and said, "Little nun, quickly get out of the way, lest you get hurt."
Yi Lin wrinkled her nose and replied in a deadpan manner, "Old Taoist, quickly step aside, lest you incur the wrath of the Buddha." Although Shen Xiaolong was a general, he was dressed like a Taoist.
"Everyone has the right to punish a traitor. What crime is there to be guilty of?" Shen Xiaolong was speechless. "Besides, I usually worship the Three Pure Ones and Four Royals. Even if I make a mistake, what does it have to do with Buddha?" In fact, he still wanted to complain, how was he old?
Yi Lin was startled and blinked her big eyes. "Hey, that's right …"
Shen Xiaolong suddenly did not know whether to laugh or cry. The pitiful appearance of the little nun in front of him made him feel awkward.
"A Taoist flirting with a nun, it's really rare to see a long time."
"Nonsense, it's obviously this little nun flirting with the old Taoist."
"I'm afraid the Taoist's heart is moved."
"Shouldn't a nun be a couple with a monk?"
"The eyes of that ascetic monk over there seem to be red, and the knife in his hand is a little faster."
"Bald donkey, don't try to steal the nun from me!"
"Hahahaha ~"
There was no lack of meddlesome people. Many people watching from the side could not help but laugh. Hearing this, Shen Xiaolong and Yi Lin wanted to find a hole to hide in.
Shen Xiaolong knew that it was not a good idea to drag on like this. Although he could not bear it, he still decided to find a chance to knock her out. However, before he took action, suddenly a black shadow, like a roc spreading its wings, hit Yi Lin's back with a palm.
The other party was still ten feet away from him, but the strong wind that was stirred up by the other party's attack was already making it difficult for Shen Xiaolong to breathe. It could be seen how powerful this palm strike was. Even if it was him, he would have to avoid it, let alone this weak little nun.
He wanted to save this little nun, but he thought of the purpose of his trip, and the person who suddenly appeared was a friend, not an enemy. If he intervened, it would inevitably cause internal strife …
While Shen Xiaolong was hesitating, Wu Xi on the other side saw the situation here. She could not help but turn pale with fright. She hurriedly used two moves to force back Murong Fu. She jumped into the air and stabbed the back of the mysterious person. At this time, it was too late to run in front of Yi Lin, so she could only adopt this strategy of besieging Wei to rescue Zhao.
Suddenly, the mysterious person seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. He directly dodged to the side, and then hit Wu Xi's side ribs with his palm. The whole process was smooth as if it had been planned.
Wu Xi did not expect such a change. At this time, he instantly understood that the other party's attack on Yi Lin was fake, and the real intention was to plot against him. He could not withdraw his sword in a hurry, so he could only raise his palm to meet the attack.
Unfortunately, 80% of his martial arts was on the sword. How could he be the opponent of the other party in terms of palm techniques? He saw that the person suddenly withdrew his palm, causing him to hit the air, and a trace of blood could not help but flow from the corner of his mouth. The mysterious person took advantage of his turbulent qi and blood, the old strength had dissipated, and the new strength had not yet been generated, and suddenly hit him in the chest one after another.
Wu Xi flew back while spurting blood, but the mysterious person kept attacking him at close range like maggots. If he had not successfully withdrawn his sword to defend himself, he would have been beaten to death by the other party.
The mysterious person seemed to be afraid of his sword technique, and hurriedly leaped back several feet, creating a sufficient safe distance.
"Wa …" Wu Xi half-knelt on the ground, supporting himself with his sword, and spurted out a few mouthfuls of blood. If he had not learned the "Muscle-bone Strengthening Scripture" a few days ago, and a wisp of True Qi to protect his heart meridian, perhaps he would have died on the spot after that round of attacks just now.
"Brother Linghu!"
"Brother Linghu!"
Yi Lin and Tian Boguang were shocked, and hurriedly ran to his side. Because they saw that the chief evil Wu Xi was seriously injured, and worried about his counterattack before he died, Yang Juyuan and the others did not dare to pursue and let the two return to Wu Xi's side.
Wu Xi didn't have the time to respond to the two of them. Instead, he looked hatefully at the mysterious person from before. "Ice True Energy, Great Songyang Palm … Zuo Lenchan, you're a dignified Grandmaster of your generation, yet you sneak attack a junior. You're too shameless! The blood he had just spat out on the ground had now formed ice particles, emitting a trace of cold air.
At this time, the mysterious person took off the mask on his face, and sure enough, it was the leader of the Five Mountain Sword Faction, Zuo Lenchan!
Zuo Lenchan snorted coldly, "For traitors like you who sell their country for glory, everyone has the right to punish you. This is called enforcing justice on behalf of heaven."
"You …" Wu Xi opened his mouth to say something, but unfortunately, a mouthful of blood gushed out, blocking the rest of his words.
"Brother Linghu, what's wrong with you, quickly take this White Cloud Bear Gall Pill." Yi Lin's beautiful face turned pale, and she hurriedly shook out a few pills from the porcelain bottle in her arms, and without counting the number, she sent them into his mouth.
Wu Xi smiled bitterly. Now, he was the clearest about his injury, and it could be said that half of his body was already in the coffin. Although the spiritual medicine of the Heng Mountain Sect was famous for healing injuries, it could not cure people who were bound to die.
Seeing the state of her lover at this time, Yi Lin's tears kept falling like pearls from a broken necklace. She, who had always been weak, could not help but angrily stare at Zuo Lenchan, "Uncle Zuo, what you are doing is really not decent behavior."
Zuo Lenchan sneered, "Who do you think you are to criticize me?"
"I …" Yi Lin's temper was originally soft, and when faced with this kind of situation, her face flushed red, but she did not know how to deal with it.
Zuo Lenchan did not let her go, "Everyone in the world knows that Wu Xi colluded with the enemy and committed treason, and is destined to go down in history. As a famous sect, your Heng Mountain Sect did not want to subdue the demon, but instead came to help such a traitor. Could it be that your Heng Mountain Sect also participated in Wu Xi's betrayal this time?"
"No, no," Yi Lin hurriedly waved her hand, "This time I only came here alone, I do not represent the Heng Mountain Sect … No, I want to say that Linghu … General Wu is not that kind of person." Zuo Lenchan had always been strong, and as the leader of the Five Mountain Sword Sect, how could a little girl like Yi Lin win against him when it came to reasoning? Soon, she was led astray.
"Since it was not the Heng Mountain Sect's instruction, it means that you, little nun, have abandoned yourself," Zuo Lenchan said resolutely, as if he was making a judgment. "You are traveling with the notorious pervert of the martial arts world, Tian Boguang. A man and a woman alone … You really have no shame, you have abandoned yourself!"
At this time, everyone in the field looked at the sadhu next to her, pointing at him one by one.
"Is he the famous Tian Boguang?"
"No wonder his saber is so fast, Tian Boguang is famous for his lightness skills and quick saber."
"Isn't he famous for being a pervert?"
"This little nun looks gentle and quiet, but she has been traveling with Tian Boguang all the way. I don't know if she can keep her chastity."
"Are you stupid? Tian Boguang, Tian Boguang, doesn't it mean to strip naked? This little nun looks pure on the outside, but who knows how lewd she is in private."
"She has been with Tian Boguang all the way, unwilling to part with him. Most likely she has been conquered by his skills in bed."
…
Listening to the vulgar words of the people around her, Yi Lin was on the verge of tears. "I didn't …" Unfortunately, her voice was quickly drowned out by the ridicule of the crowd. People would only believe what they wanted to believe, and no one cared about what she said.
"All of you, shut up!" Tian Boguang jumped out and shouted, "Yi Lin is my master now, and we are master and disciple. How can it be as dirty as they think?" Speaking of which, he had become Yi Lin's disciple because of Linghu Chong's teasing. At first, he was naturally indignant, but later on, he was happy with this identity.
"So what if we are master and disciple? During the day, master and disciple, and at night, brother and sister."
"A few years ago, there was also a master and disciple relationship. What were they called again?"
"Yang Guo and Xiao Long Nu from the Ancient Tomb Sect, right?"
…
Tian Boguang didn't expect that his explanation would not only be useless, but it would also make things worse. Seeing Yi Lin's aggrieved tears kept falling, he felt a surge of heat in his chest. He didn't want Yi Lin to suffer even the slightest bit.
He jumped up a flight of stairs and pulled down his pants. "Open your dog eyes wide and take a good look. I, your grandpa, am now a man without roots. I'm not as dirty as you think! Master is as pure as ice and as clean as jade. How can she be tainted by your gossip? "
One had to know that castration was an incomparable humiliation to a man. Normally, he minded this the most, but now that he saw his sweetheart being wronged, especially when he saw her tearful appearance, his heart warmed up and he couldn't care less about anything else.
"Oh my god, he really was castrated."
"This is his retribution for plucking a flower."
"So this is what being castrated looks like."
"It's disgusting to look at."
…
No one cared about what he said. A group of people just pointed at him and whispered.
Zuo Lenchan snorted. "Immoral! Shameless!"
"I'll fight you!" Tian Boguang was already on the verge of breaking down in shame. Hearing him say that, he exploded in an instant.
He pulled up his pants and rushed toward Zuo Lenchan with his knife. Zuo Lenchan snorted. "You overestimate yourself!"
Although Tian Boguang's martial arts were good, he was only second-rate in the Jianghu. At most, he was on par with Yu Canghai of the Qingcheng Faction. Yu Canghai's martial arts were far inferior to Zuo Lenchan's.
The two had just exchanged a few moves when Tian Boguang spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backward. Everyone watching felt a chill in their hearts. "Song Mountain Faction's Zuo Lenchan is indeed worthy of his reputation."
Among them, Murong Fu and Shen Xiaolong were the most shocked. After all, both of them boasted that their martial arts were good. However, seeing Zuo Lenchan's moves, they were completely unsure.
"Brother Tian, why did you do this?" Wu Xi caught his breath and sighed at Tian Boguang, who had just fallen beside him. He didn't know whether it was a pity that he had exposed himself or that he shouldn't have come to save him.
Yi Lin hurried over. "Tian Boguang, what's wrong?"
Seeing the concern on her face, Tian Boguang couldn't help but reveal a smile. "I'm fine, I won't die …" Before he finished speaking, he trembled all over and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Wu Xi hurriedly reminded him. "Be careful of his cold qi, you must force out the cold poison."
Tian Boguang nodded. At this time, he had no time to speak and hurriedly began to heal his injuries.
Unfortunately, the people around them wouldn't give them the chance. "Kill the traitor Wu Xi, kill the pervert Tian Boguang!"
A group of people brandished their weapons and charged at them. At this time, the three people had already lost their ability to fight. Murong Fu, Shen Xiaolong and the others respected their status and did not participate.
Looking at the frail figure of Yi Lin standing in front of him, Shen Xiaolong couldn't bear to do it. However, the crowd was so fanatical that he couldn't do anything.
Just as her figure was about to be submerged in the crowd, suddenly an invisible wave of air spread out. The group of people that rushed over were shaken back one by one.
"Who?" The others didn't know what was going on, but Zuo Lenchan, Murong Fu, Shen Xiaolong and the other masters on the scene had already discovered the target. A figure slowly descended from mid-air.
