"Hee hee! That's great, we can finally go to the imperial capital to play! "
Chen Xiuxiu rode on the 'Godly Thousand Mile Horse' and shouted happily.
Behind him, the others were left far behind.
At this time, a group of people was on their way to the imperial capital. They were still led by Luo Yunjue, but the one following and protecting them was not Jin Qi, but Jin San, an early stage Great General expert.
Because of the Great Ao Nation, Luo Haoyu and Luo Mingshuang couldn't leave, so they didn't follow this time. However, with Jin San's protection, it was enough to protect everyone's safety.
"Second sister, don't forget, father told us to watch you. You have to restrain yourself." Chen Da said with a smile.
Chen Xiuxiu heard this and pouted, "Hmph, third brother, father isn't here, why are you so attentive? I don't see you being so obedient usually."
"Isn't third brother worried about your safety?" Chen Da smiled embarrassedly.
"Worry about yourself, you're the most naughty. Go. "After saying this, she shouted and dashed away.
Everyone looked at each other and hurriedly chased after her, afraid that this little miss would cause trouble. Even if she didn't cause trouble, it would be troublesome if she got lost.
… … …
At this time, on a road two hundred miles away from the imperial capital, there was also a group of people moving forward. However, their speed was not fast, about twenty people.
"Miss, do you think that brat who stole your first place last time will be able to get first place this time?"
At the front were two young girls around thirteen or fourteen years old. The one in the lead was dressed in white. Her face was delicate and beautiful, bright and moving. However, at this time, she was riding on the back of the horse with a cold expression, not saying a word.
The person behind her was dressed a few grades lower, and her appearance was only above average. She could only be considered delicate and pretty.
Obviously, this girl was only a servant. Just now, she saw that the young miss in front of her was in a daze, so she asked.
When the girl in white heard this, she was silent for a moment before she said, "Although his strength is very strong, and his strength is astonishing, and his movement technique is superb. However, when looking at the eight prefectures, the Ba Prefecture is the place where the strong come from. I don't think he will necessarily win."
"But Young Miss, you only managed to last ten moves against him. That's enough to prove his strength. If there's someone in the Imperial Capital who's more powerful than him, how powerful is that person? "The young girl behind him clicked her tongue.
"Perhaps he's already the most powerful supreme warrior in the Long Province, but it's hard to say for sure in the other eight provinces," the white-robed girl said after thinking for a moment.
"Capture them all alive." As soon as the white-clothed girl's voice fell, dozens of people suddenly rushed out from the surroundings. Each of them held a weapon, and under the command of a leader, began to surround them.
"Miss, what should we do? Who are they? "The servant girl asked in fear.
Although the white-clothed girl was also very surprised, she was after all experienced, so her expression didn't change. She shouted at the person who seemed to be the leader in front of her, "Who are you, and what do you want?"
"Hahaha, what are we doing? You'll know when we catch all of you. Go! "The leader didn't say much, and immediately gave the order to attack.
The thirty to forty subordinates immediately began to capture them with weapons in hand.
On the white-clothed girl's side, the others also took out their weapons and began to fight with the enemy. Unfortunately, the difference in strength was too great. Although the enemy didn't kill them, they gradually lost the ability to fight back.
The white-clothed girl was also a smart person. She knew that the enemy didn't kill them, and that there must be some kind of conspiracy to capture them alive. As such, she didn't hesitate in the slightest. As long as there was an opportunity, she would kill them. In the blink of an eye, four or five of the enemy had already died at her hands.
"Fire Snake, you go. Remember to capture them alive," the leader said to the person beside him.
"Yes, Big Brother."
Of the two people beside the leader who hadn't moved, a young man dressed in a red robe and wearing a 'coiling snake' hat coldly said.
He waved the longsword in his hand and stabbed it directly at the white-clothed girl's back. The white-clothed girl was in the middle of the battle and couldn't fight back. She could only dodge.
Fire Snake gave a meaningful glance, and the others all retreated, no longer interfering. It seemed that he was very confident in his ability to capture this girl.
As soon as the two of them started to fight, the white-clothed girl's heart sank. Her opponent was actually a late-stage Martial Master. It seemed that she wouldn't be able to escape this time. However, she wouldn't allow herself to be captured without putting up a fight. She wouldn't be satisfied until the end.
As for the followers she brought with her, they were basically all captured. Only two or three of them were still stubbornly resisting. The enemy wasn't in a hurry and slowly played with them like this.
… …..
Not far away, a young man was using his movement technique to quickly move forward. His speed was as fast as a horse.
"Practicing my movement technique while hurrying on the road feels pretty good. I estimate that I'll reach the imperial capital in half a day," the young man said happily.
"I wonder if Cousin Xiuxiu and the others have reached the imperial capital?"
This person was Luo Ping. He estimated that the time of the 'Battle of the Champion' was approaching, so he didn't return to the county yamen. Instead, he went directly to the imperial capital. Instead, he passed through the main road in the 'Lumen County' and traveled all the way here. He hoped that it would be smoother.
He had been running continuously for several days and basically didn't meet anyone along the way. This made him feel very strange.
It was reasonable to say that such a wide road should be either a commercial road or an official road. At the very least, it should be a 'common road'. There should be an endless stream of people coming and going. However, there were only a few people within a thousand miles. This made him feel that something was very unusual.
"Eh? Is there someone fighting in front? I wonder if it's the 'first wife fighting the third wife' or 'love rivals tearing each other apart'. However, it's none of my business. I'd better not meddle in other people's business. "
When Luo Ping saw that the fighting was less than a hundred meters away, he planned to change his direction and go around them. After all, the road was very wide.
However, he wasted some time while thinking. Moreover, his movement technique was extremely fast. When he was about to go around, he suddenly saw the face of the white-clothed girl in front of him. He immediately stopped and didn't move forward.
"It's her. She should be going to the imperial capital to participate in the competition. Why is she fighting with others? Moreover, she doesn't seem to be in a good state. "Luo Ping actually recognized the white-clothed girl.
Although he recognized this girl, he wouldn't rashly step forward to help. Originally, the two of them had only exchanged blows. They couldn't even be considered acquaintances.
Moreover, who knew how strong her opponents were? However, he still moved a little closer. When he was twenty meters away from the battlefield, he was stopped by the leader.
"Who are you? You'd better be honest. Otherwise, you'll be in trouble. "The leader threatened.
Luo Ping looked at the person who spoke to him. He was in his forties. He had a wide head and big ears. He was tall and had two shocking scars on his face.
Beside him stood another person. He was in his thirties. He had a medium build and a pale face. Both of them held large blades in their hands. They stood more than ten meters away from the white-clothed girl.
Behind them stood twenty to thirty people. All of them had fiendish expressions and weapons in their hands. At this moment, they were all glaring at Luo Ping.
"Hehe, uncles, big brothers, this little brother was in a hurry and lost his way. May I know how to get to Jade Spring City?"
Jade Spring City was a small city under the imperial capital. Coincidentally, Luo Ping knew this city. Therefore, he pretended to be a hothead and smiled flatteringly.
"Hmph, Jade Spring City should be left. You went the wrong way." The pale youth said with a shrill voice.
"Many thanks. Then, this little brother will take his leave." Luo Ping saw that the other party had many people. They weren't easy to provoke. He quickly prepared to slip away.
The girl in white who was in the midst of battle was surprised to see Luo Ping appear here. However, her hands didn't slow down in the slightest.
Although her true strength wasn't as good as her opponent's, her skill with concealed weapons and poison could be said to be first class.
Before Luo Ping arrived, she had already used her tricks to injure Fire Snake's thigh with a concealed weapon. Then, she pierced the strange poison, Death Without an Intact Corpse, into his left arm with a silver needle. Her opponent had no choice but to cut off his arm to save his life. Otherwise, he would really die without an intact corpse.
Death Without an Intact Corpse was a cruel, vicious, and strange poison that made people tremble in fear. The poisoned person's entire body would first feel sore and weak, numb and itchy. Then, their flesh would rot and their bones would shatter, and they would bleed from their seven orifices.
However, they wouldn't die immediately. Instead, they would need to go through four hours of painful torture. In the end, the poisoned person would slowly turn into a pool of blood. They would either seep into the ground or evaporate under the sun, leaving no trace behind. It was as if the poisoned person had never appeared in the world.
The terrifying part of this poison was that it couldn't kill the poisoned person even if they wanted to. However, if they didn't want to die, they would die without an intact corpse. Moreover, they would have to go through inhumane torture.
However, because this poison was too overbearing, vicious, and cruel, two hundred years ago, the Remnant Poison Sect, which was good at using this poison, was annihilated by the joint forces of the martial arts world.
No one would have thought that after two hundred years, Death Without an Intact Corpse would appear in the world of martial artists once more. No one knew whether it would stir up a storm again.
When the leader saw that Fire Snake had lost his arm because of the trap, he wanted to go up and help, but he was rejected. Fire Snake's eyes were already bloodshot. If he didn't take down the woman in white, he would not stop. Hence, the two of them fought until Luo Ping arrived.
Just then, the woman in white used a hidden weapon to injure Fire Snake's severed arm and left shoulder, causing him to feel even more pain.
Fire Snake hated her to the bone. Once he became hot-headed, he forgot the goal of this trip. He wanted to immediately kill the enemy in front of him.
His murderous aura surged, and his eyes shone with a red light. Fire Snake was no longer restrained. Instead, he attacked at full force. He was determined to kill the woman in one hit.
"Ah! I'm going to kill you! "
Fire Snake shouted. He flicked the Curved Snake Sword in his hand and sent the sword in the woman's hand flying. Then, without hesitation, he thrust his sword toward the woman's face.
When the woman in white saw that the man's sword was gradually getting closer and closer to her, she could only use her body movement skill to continuously retreat. Unfortunately, she had just taken a few steps back when she tripped over the corpses on the ground and fell.
