He had no choice but to lead her out of the secret passage and down the stairs. They were not far from the main entrance. As soon as they stepped out of the courtyard, her heart began to beat wildly. She couldn't suppress it and looked around. The hand holding the Nangong Xue trembled uncontrollably. The Nangong Xue gradually sensed it and asked curiously, "What are you afraid of?" She didn't hear the sound of weapons colliding as she had imagined. She didn't know where Shixiong and Jiang Liechen were. What was the outcome of this deathmatch?
The Xuan Shuang was just about to make up some random excuse when a gloomy voice came from the side, "What are you afraid of? That's right, I was just about to ask the same question." From the shadows, Jiang Liechen slowly walked out, still wearing his black robe with gold embroidery. Every step he took on the withered branches and withered leaves on the ground rustled, as if death was slowly approaching.
The Xuan Shuang was startled and quickly pushed the Nangong Xue away, calling out, "You go first!" The Nangong Xue's situation was unclear, but she definitely wasn't in a position where she would run away as soon as she saw an enemy. She stood still and didn't move.
Jiang Liechen sneered, "You think she can run away? Humph, even you want to betray me? "The Xuan Shuang hurriedly said," No, how can that be? Of course I will be filial to you. As for her, I just saw that the moonlight tonight was pretty good and decided to take her out for a walk. " Jiang Liechen said, "The moonlight is beautiful, but it's a pity that when it's stained with blood, it's a bit cruel."
The Nangong Xue looked back and forth between the two, sizing them up, asking, "What's going on? You two … what's your relationship? " Although she was asking the Xuan Shuang, her gaze was fixed on Jiang Liechen, afraid that he would suddenly launch a sneak attack. Jiang Liechen sneered, "Of course there's a big relationship between us. What, he didn't tell you? He's my last disciple, the only disciple I've taken in half of my life. "
The Nangong Xue turned pale with fright, saying, "You two really are together? Then … was it also a lie that my Shixiong came to save me? " Jiang Liechen said, "That's not the case......... As long as Li Yijie is willing to come, it will become his burial ground at any time. I just don't know if his love for you is strong enough for him to stretch out his neck to be killed. "
..................................................... to.. You'd better relax and wait for Li Yijie to come and see you for a final farewell. Only then will it be a magnificent curtain call for this big show. "
.................................... . What's the point of bringing such a burden, other than hindering you? Li Yijie didn't care about her for a long time. Don't you know that she was the one who begged and pestered him, forcing him to marry her? He's more than happy that you can take care of this trouble for him. The fact that he hasn't responded for a long time is the best proof. Which man wouldn't immediately rush over when he hears that his wife is in danger? Unless he doesn't love her at all! "
With every sentence she spoke, Nangong Xue's face darkened. But the Xuan Shuang had no other choice. She didn't care about her feelings. She only hoped that Jiang Liechen would look down on her value and lose interest in her.
Jiang Liechen's gaze shifted and he sneered, "You can save it. This woman is about to die, there's no need to attack her like this. You think I don't know? Your true intention is to be a lobbyist at Li Yijie's invitation, right? Everyone in the palace should know who I'm targeting her for. Why would they let you out at such a critical moment? Who would believe that you have no ulterior motives? From the moment you stepped into the manor, this Seat already knew everything. I intentionally let you do it because I wanted to borrow your participation to make this game more interesting. "
Nangong Xue's heart trembled. "Lock her up? Lock her up? Then you … you're the Lord Baylor Ling's Xuan Shuang? How could you infiltrate the enemy's nest? Go! " Xuan Shuang said unhappily, "Miss Nangong, it's not up to you to worry about how I do things. You're the one who should be running away. Don't talk nonsense. " Nangong Xue said, "I can't let you fall into the hands of this devil and ruin your future. Go!"
Xuan Shuang was so angry that he wanted to stomp his feet and curse. At this moment, a group of people suddenly rushed in from outside the courtyard and surrounded the manor. The person in the lead was Lu Qian. After entering the manor, he rushed straight and grabbed Nangong Xue's hands. He examined her from head to toe. Other than missing a finger, there were no other injuries. He let out a sigh of relief and said, "Xueer, it's great that you're fine. I came here especially to save you. Come with me. As for him, he has his own way of escaping. Don't worry. "
Xuan Shuang sneered, "Lord Lu, you're really heartless. Who was it that went through untold hardships to complete your mission? Aren't you burning the bridge after crossing the river? "
Jiang Liechen's eyes were cold. He turned to Lu Qian and said disdainfully, "A bunch of shrimp soldiers and crab generals. Now even a lowly servant dares to make an enemy out of me?"
Lu Qian protected Nangong Xue with both hands and said seriously, "Jiang Shengjun, I, Lu Qian, have never wanted to be your enemy since the day we first met. The reason why I acted out of character today and brought my troops here is not because I want to disrespect you. I just want to protect what is most important to me, as well as the person who is most important to me. I don't want to see her hurt in the slightest. Otherwise, no matter who the other party is or what kind of power they have, I will make them pay the price in blood. "
Jiang Liechen sneered, "Why beat around the bush? You came here to negotiate peace, but if I don't let her go, you'll have to fight me on the battlefield. Isn't that right? Do you think you can protect her with your strength alone? No matter how many people you bring, they're nothing more than weeds in my eyes. "
Lu Qian said indifferently, "I'll do my best." With a flip of his palm, a bright light shot out. This was the firearm that Li Yijie used that day in the Snow Song Palace. Jiang Liechen knew how powerful it was and dodged to the side. The ball of light brushed past his sleeve and flew straight past, but it ignited a ball of flame at the end of his sleeve. Jiang Liechen was extremely angry. He tore off his sleeve and said, "Cowardly rat, you overestimate yourself. You're courting death!" With a wave of his hand, he also shot out a ball of light. The difference was that the firearm was a tangible object, while he was condensed from his internal energy.
Suddenly, a shout was heard in midair. A figure descended from the sky. With a wave of his sword, he parried Jiang Liechen's attack and dispersed it. It was Li Yijie, whom he hadn't seen for many days. He had changed into a set of luxurious clothes, and his body exuded an unprecedented aura. He stood upright and proud, causing even the heavens and earth to tremble. Nangong Xue joyfully called out, "Martial Brother!"
Jiang Liechen had a strange expression on his face as he said, "Brother Li, you're finally here. I thought you really didn't care about this woman. It's really a pity that you missed the feast that I've specially prepared for you." Li Yijie coldly said, "Jiang Shengjun invited me with sincerity. If I didn't come, wouldn't I be disrespecting him? Now that I'm here, I'd like you to follow our agreement and let Xueer go. "
Lu Qian deliberately hugged Nangong Xue tightly and said with a laugh, "Brother Li, you're too late! Xueer was saved by me. "Xuan Shuang said," You're lying through your teeth, aren't you ashamed? " Li Yijie looked at the three people's smiling faces and felt extremely warm in his heart. He laughed and said, "Everything has just begun. I'm just in time! What happens next will depend on you and me! Ah … Xuan Shuang? "Seeing Xuan Shuang here, he was momentarily taken aback.
Xuan Shuang laughed and said, "What's wrong? Can't I come? I saved your future wife, so I'm a meritorious person. Why don't you say a few words of praise and reward me? "Li Yijie laughed and said," Good boy! Today I'll consider your meritorious service, which will offset your mistake. When we return to the Palace, I'll slowly settle the account with you. "
Jiang Liechen looked at the harmonious atmosphere in front of him and his heart was filled with hatred. He said, "Don't be in a hurry to joke around. Li Yijie, when did I say I'd let her go? I'm just being gracious and letting you all die together. "Li Yijie raised his head and said," Seven Demons Head, how long can you be so savage for? Today you'll let her go whether you want to or not! "Jiang Liechen said," What a big tone! You dare to talk to me like that? Are you tired of living? "
Li Yijie smiled indifferently and said, "Lu Daren, please take Xueer and Xuan Shuang and leave first. I know that the Seven Evil Spirits have always wanted to have a duel with me. If I don't fulfill this wish, he won't be satisfied even if he dies." Then he swept his sword towards Jiang Liechen and said, "If you have the ability, then bring it on."
Jiang Liechen was not angry but laughed and said, "Since you want to die, I'll fulfill your wish." With a wave of his sleeve, he and Li Yijie began to fight. When their palms collided, he suddenly felt an extremely strong internal energy spread out. He quickly activated his internal energy and neutralized it. He was surprised and said, "You little brat, I haven't seen you for a few days, how did your internal energy advance so quickly?" Li Yijie had received guidance from the original Zhuang Zhu, so his strength could not be mentioned in the same breath as before. He laughed and said, "If I want to defeat you, how can I not improve quickly? How is it? I didn't disappoint you, did I? "
Jiang Liechen snorted coldly and said, "That's good. A quick fight is boring. Let me see how much you've improved and how many of my moves you can take! "He rolled up his sleeve and attacked Li Yijie's throat. Nangong Xue was pulled a few steps away by Lu Qian, but he still looked back three times and called out, "Martial Brother! Be careful! "
Li Yijie parried a few moves and gradually understood the pattern. Jiang Liechen's martial arts were indeed very high, but compared to the original Zhuang Zhu, he was still somewhat lacking. As soon as Li Yijie noticed this, his confidence multiplied. His moves were mixed with all kinds of martial arts from different branches, combining them into one.
Jiang Liechen could not see what kind of swordsmanship he was using, but it seemed to have the essence of Huashan's martial arts and the essence of the Jiying Sect's swordsmanship. Sometimes it was a combination of both, sometimes it was mixed and sometimes it was completely unrelated. While he was distracted, Li Yijie attacked him a few more times, and one of his moves went straight for the middle part of his body. He had no choice but to leap back and reach the roof of the small building. Li Yijie followed closely behind and continued to attack. White flashes could be seen in the air and the sounds of metal clanging could be heard.
Nangong Xue was unable to move her feet. She looked at her martial brother's figure floating back and forth, handsome beyond compare. Her eyes stung and she had the urge to cry. For a long time, she had been by her martial brother's side. She had watched him grow from a third-rate disciple to a Wulin Alliance Leader who could truly take responsibility and whose martial arts were equally strong. How could she not cry tears of joy at this change? However, the higher the status, the greater the gap between the two of them. Amidst the joy, there was also a kind of hazy sadness.
Li Yijie and Jiang Liechen fought from the roof to the ground, and then they circled around everywhere. Neither one of them was willing to let the other off easily. Li Yijie made a feint with his sword, Jiang Liechen sent out a palm strike. Li Yijie tapped the ground with the tip of his foot, bent his leg, and dodged the attack by a hair's breadth. 'Bang!' Li Yijie's attack hit the roof beam on the opposite side. Smoke rose everywhere, and a lot of slender logs fell down.
Li Yijie laughed and said, "Jiang Shengjun, are you really going to have a martial arts duel with me, or are you going to tear down my house?" Jiang Liechen angrily said, "Stop talking nonsense! Just wait for me to finish you off with my next move! " He sent out palm strikes one after another. Li Yijie sometimes blocked with his sword, sometimes dodged sideways, sometimes leaped high and crouched low. He was always able to make Jiang Liechen's palm strike hit nothing but air. Finally, he somersaulted and stepped on the bare roof beam with one foot. He crooked his index finger and said with a laugh, "Hey, I'm over here! Looks like your aim isn't good enough. "
Ever since Jiang Liechen had fought with others, even if he had suffered some losses, he had never been so cowardly. He clenched his fists and sent out a palm strike toward Li Yijie. Then he sent out several palm strikes in all directions. No matter where he dodged, he would definitely be hit.
