The brothel, Returning to Moon Tower.
The blood was like a blooming flower, full of redness and eagerness. It was like invisible steam, warming the whole room.
At the same time, it reflected Tang Sanghua's beautiful eyes red.
As if she was being dyed, her beautiful eyes also turned blood red.
"Blood …"
She didn't know what kind of complicated feelings it was, but her heart seemed to have lost some weight, although it was very light.
"That guy, died just like that?"
No one could describe the speed of thought.
"I couldn't kill him no matter how hard I tried, but he died just like that … I thought … life in Yongling would become more interesting … What …"
"Forget it … It's good that he's dead …"
Her pace was still steady as she walked forward. Her turning head also slowly turned back. For her, Yan Li was just a passer-by, at most a passer-by who knew her secret.
"What?"
At this moment, Mu Dongfeng, the Junior Minister of Supreme Court, suddenly shouted in disbelief, "When did you …"
"Idiot!"
Yan Li's unique lazy voice came from behind. "What Junior Minister of Supreme Court, Mu Dongfeng? What Saber Drawing? You're ten thousand years too early to pretend in front of me."
In her daze, Tang Sanghua actually forgot to escape. Looking back, she saw Yan Li throw away the corpse in his hand, which was used as a shield, and crouched forward to dodge another slash from Mu Dongfeng. At the same time, he sneered.
"What a bastard!" She couldn't help but scold him with a smile.
Yan Li winked at her and said, "I haven't kissed a beauty yet, how can I bear to die?"
Tang Sanghua's beautiful eyes were like silk, and she said in a sweet voice, "Then let's see if you have the ability."
At this moment, a large number of soldiers rushed in from outside and blocked their way.
With this delay, Tang Sanghua also became a bird in a cage.
She simply stopped and stood back to back with Yan Li. While watching the soldiers' movements, she said in a low voice, "Regardless of whether we can escape or not, we must not expose our identities, or we will definitely die!"
Yan Li naturally understood the meaning of her words.
With Ji Zhiyuan's zero tolerance for the underworld, no one would blame the Supreme Judiciary even if he was killed on the spot after learning that a student of the Academy had colluded with the underworld.
"B * stard, b * stard, b * stard …" Mu Dong Feng's hands trembled. His face became extremely scary as he stared at Yan Li. "How dare you … How dare you …"
Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a bloody wound on Yan Li's lower ribs. He sneered, "Brat, you're so arrogant, but you still can't escape from my blade."
When a Rank-5 martial artist went up against a Rank-3 martial artist, it was already fortunate that he was not killed in one blow. It was basically impossible for him to escape unscathed.
Although it was just a wound, the internal strength attached to the saber was wreaking havoc in Yan Li's body. At present, he could only barely suppress it. It was not an easy task to expel it.
Therefore, Mu Dongfeng's mood suddenly changed. He laughed in a low voice. "Insects and rats, it's safer to hide in the smelly gutters of the slums. How dare you come out to show off and pollute the imperial city. Even a thousand cuts won't be enough to atone for your serious crimes."
"Insects and rats?" Tang Sanghua stomped her feet in anger. "Are you blind? Can't you see that I'm fair and beautiful? I'm a natural beauty …"
Mu Dongfeng seemed to have no tenderness for the fairer sex. "Humph, those who hide their heads but show their tails. What are they if not insects and rats?"
The corner of Yan Li's mouth lifted slightly. He said, "The Supreme Judiciary has come out in full force. It's not as simple as besieging insects and rats. It's better to say that you're afraid of exposing something … Don't you think so, Lord Dong …"
The human wall automatically formed a line. Dong Qing walked over expressionlessly and said in a cold voice, "Illegal assembly, slandering an imperial court official. Any one of these is enough to sentence you to death. Hurry up and surrender!"
"I see!" Yan Li nodded and said no more.
Tang Sanghua asked in a low voice, "Do you understand something? Why did the Supreme Judiciary appear here? "
Yan Li chuckled and didn't hide it. He said, "I'll tell you if I can escape."
"Still want to escape?" Mu Dongfeng sneered and waved his hand. "Go, dead or alive!"
The difference in strength between the two sides was too great. In the face of such a situation, Tang Sanghua frowned slightly. It was not easy for her to escape, not to mention carrying a burden. It would be fine if Yan Li died on the spot, but she was afraid that after being caught, he would give up his identity.
At this moment, she couldn't help but feel very upset for her little jump just now. It was better for this kind of burden to die early.
Although she vaguely felt that her purpose of coming to Yongling might be accomplished through Yan Li.
While she was thinking, a saber-wielding soldier rushed over with a roar. Although his bold posture was not comparable to that of a cultivator, he was still very strong. Obviously, he had gone through hard training.
Tang Sanghua raised his machete casually, and it bypassed the standard miaodao like a snake. With a muffled sound, the soldier fell to the ground and died.
At the same time, two more soldiers rushed over from the rear.
Tang Sanghua's movements were smooth. With the force of drawing the machete, she flew up and spun in the air, slashing horizontally like a saber or an axe. The two soldiers immediately screamed and flew out, soon drowning in the crowd behind.
However, after repelling two, more soldiers rushed up from the rear.
Yan Li tapped the tip of his foot, and a miaodao that had fallen to the ground sprang up and grabbed it. He managed to mobilize a little Primordial Qi and swung it forward.
The gap between a cultivator and an ordinary person could not be measured. Even if he was at the end of his tether, with a "ping" sound, the first soldier's machete was actually cut in half, and the tip of the machete even slit his neck before he could react. He died before he could even make a sound.
However, they were all carefully trained soldiers of the Supreme Judiciary. They were by no means comparable to ordinary soldiers. At least in terms of bravery, they could be compared to the elites of the army.
It was also the first time that Yan Li and Mu Dongfeng worked together, so they lacked the necessary tacit understanding. In the chaotic battle, they inevitably fell into a situation where they fought separately.
With another swing of the machete, Yan Li took two steps back while pressing the wound on his left rib. He frowned and pressed on the wound on his left rib. His face had turned pale at some point.
"You're just a small fry, and you want to mobilize the Supreme Judiciary? What a waste."
Mu Dongfeng sneered. "Even if I don't do it now, you won't live for long."
Before he finished speaking, several soldiers closed in on Yan Li again.
One of them had a ruthless look on his face. He did not look like a soldier, but more like a desperado.
His machete technique was also different from that of an ordinary person. It looked more ferocious and deadly. As he approached Yan Li, he roared and swung his machete twice in the blink of an eye.
Yan Li made a conclusion after a brief observation. This person was undoubtedly a cultivator. Judging from his breath, he should be a seventh-grade martial artist.
The pain from his wound was like his flesh was being twisted, and it gradually spread to his heart like poison, giving him the illusion that he was being dismembered. He exhaled softly. At times like this, his heart was as calm as an ancient well.
A third-grade martial artist was indeed a third-grade martial artist. The condensed Saber Qi could not be easily dispersed, and he had no time to spare.
In a flash, Yan Li tilted his body slightly to the left to avoid the first machete. Then, he leaned back slightly to avoid the second machete.
The blade of the machete brushed past the side of his nose.
Seeing this, the martial artist revealed a murderous look and was about to change his move.
Yan Li's expression turned cold. With a twist of his wrist, the machete in his hand drew a mysterious arc. From bottom to top, he used the back of the machete to hit the spine of the opponent's machete. "Clang!" The sound of metal colliding was heard.
Having suffered such a heavy blow, the martial artist almost lost his grip on his machete. He gritted his teeth and took out a short machete with his left hand. Disregarding his own safety, he fiercely stabbed at Yan Li.
This didn't look like he was dealing with a criminal. Instead, it looked like he had a deep hatred.
Yan Li's speed was faster than him. Borrowing the inertia of the machete, he used the hilt as an awl and quickly and fatally stabbed the opponent's throat.
Crack!
The sound of a throat bone breaking was heard. The martial artist let out a hoarse howl. His eyes were wide open, covered with dense blood vessels. If each of them represented deep hatred, then it would be endless.
Yan Li moved closer to him and whispered in his ear, "The Chai family is all dead. It's really hard for you to still be so loyal."
At the same time, his hand grabbed the opponent's left hand. The short machete turned and stabbed into the opponent's chest.
At this moment, a sharp sound pierced through the air beside Yan Li's ear. Without thinking, he suddenly leaned back.
Chi!
The martial artist's head was completely cut off by a machete. The blade extended to Yan Li's neck. If he hadn't dodged in time, he would have been beheaded like the martial artist.
"Sure enough, you're a rat in a stinking ditch. Your sense of smell is very keen." Mu Dongfeng calmly waved the blood on the machete and looked at Yan Li like a cat playing with a mouse.
Yan Li narrowed his eyes slightly. When he was about to speak, there was another fierce howl from the left.
This time, it was too late to dodge. Yan Li turned his body halfway and held the machete horizontally in front of his chest. The next moment, a great force passed from the machete to his arms and body. His whole body suddenly became numb. It was not over yet. His feet couldn't hold the ground because of the great force, so he flew into the air and flew over Tang Sanghua. He didn't start to fall until he was several feet away from her right.
When he was in the air, his lungs were hot and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
On the other side, seeing Yan Li flying over, the soldiers wouldn't be polite anymore. They all sneered and slashed at him with their machetes.
"Yan Li!"
Tang Sanghua was in a murderous mood. When he saw this scene, he was shocked. He was about to rush to help when Dong Qing's cold voice came into his ears.
"If you have time to worry about others, it's better to take care of yourself first!"
Dong Qing was really good at choosing the right time to attack. He didn't want her to help Yan Li, which showed how strong their determination to kill Yan Li was.
Tang Sanghua naturally noticed the abnormality, and she suddenly had a plan in her mind. Yan Li couldn't escape, and their target was not her. Even if she escaped, they wouldn't chase after her. Why not take this opportunity to escape?
With a thought, her primordial Qi surged at the same time. The machete bounced up and collided with the horse-slaying machete with a clang.
However, Tang Sanghua was not stupid enough to fight with them head-on.
This move was very particular. It used the "power of the heavenly silkworm". The so-called heavenly silkworm was actually a kind of silkworm. There were many kinds of silkworms in the world, most of which were in the Shiwan Mountains. Among them, there was a kind of heavenly silkworm, named after its soft body.
The power of the heavenly silkworm was the power of softness.
As soon as the machete collided, it lost its rigidity and slid over the blade of the horse-slaying machete like silk. Tang Sanghua also took the opportunity to flip up and crash through the roof.
However, just as she was about to escape, she subconsciously looked back.
It was this look that made her feel like she was struck by lightning, and she was stunned on the spot.
