Xuan Tianming and Bai Ze both thought that there was something wrong with their ears, or if there was something wrong with their eyes, could they have seen wrongly? The ones guarding the city were not Dashun's soldiers, but Zong Sui's?
Bai Ze rubbed his eyes and looked up again, after distinguishing for a long time, he said in confusion: "That's right! They are our soldiers, wearing Dashun's clothes, the flag on the city wall also has the word 'Hua', that is His Highness the Seventh Prince's banner. "
Xuan Tianming narrowed his eyes and looked up, that's right, the soldiers on the city wall were all Dashun's soldiers, and they were Xuan Tianming's personal soldiers. Although he could not call out the names of those soldiers one by one, they were all familiar, those brothers who had once accompanied him on a killing spree, but now they were rejecting him outside the city gates? Why?
He opened his mouth and shouted towards the top of the city wall: "Call Deputy General Qian Li out to see me!"
But the soldiers on top did not do as he ordered, still repeating the same sentence: "His Ninth Highness, please return! Bin City does not welcome you! "
"Why?" Xuan Tian Ming's shout contained his inner qi, and the anger that soared to the heavens was released along with his inner qi. The shock caused the soldiers above to retreat, and a look of horror appeared on their faces.
Bai Ze was enraged as well. He cursed at the top of his head, "Little brats! Open your eyes and see, who is your true master! "
Of course, the people at the top knew that Xuan Tian Ming was the true commander. They also clearly knew whose soldiers they were. But His Highness the Seventh Prince said that not allowing His Ninth Highness to enter the city was for his own good, if they did not want His Ninth Highness to lose his life, they had to stop him outside the city. Therefore, even if they had to risk being scolded for forgetting their master, they had to stop him. They couldn't let anything happen to His Ninth Highness.
The city gates stood there quietly, without the slightest intention of opening. The soldiers on top of the gates were still standing straight. Even if they were forced back a few steps by Xuan Tianming's anger, they still held onto their posts when they came back.
Xuan Tianming suddenly understood. His Seventh Brother had steeled his heart to not let him fight this battle. What did he mean by having him go to Ji 'an County to help deliver the betrothal gifts? It was all a lie. It was to get the commander's seal so that he could bring these officers and soldiers from the capital to the eastern border and successfully throw him off.
Thinking about it, along the way, he had been misled by so many wrong signs and wasted so much time before arriving at Bin City. How could he not understand what Xuan Tianhua was trying to do? But … Xuan Tianming clenched his fists. Seventh Brother, oh, seventh Brother! You came to fight for me, to take risks for me, but have you ever thought about my feelings? How can I just watch you lead your troops into battle and kill the enemy with my own eyes? How could I bear to see your white clothes soaked in blood? What did you say when you were young? In the future, leave the matter of waving the knife to me. All you need to do is stand where you are and watch. That's the best way to set your mind at ease. So now, why aren't you keeping your promise when you were young?
His heart was sour. Looking at the six zhang tall city wall in front of him, he huffed coldly. "I can come and go as I please on the barricade outside the barracks on the outskirts of the capital. How can a mere wall of a few zhang stop me?" After saying this, the tip of his foot lightly tapped the stirrups and his entire body leaped up. His excellent Qing Gong body technique was vividly displayed. In the blink of an eye, he had already leaped halfway up the city wall. He stepped on the bricks of the wall and began to walk slowly, preparing to leap up again.
At the same time, a white figure suddenly floated out from the top of the wall. In contrast to Xuan Tianming, he was charging down from above. One white and one purple, in an instant, the two people's palms collided. After the collision, they were both sent flying far away.
One fell down, while the other rose up. The distance between the two grew further and further, but their gazes never moved away from the moment they met.
Xuan Tianming circulated the internal energy in his body. His falling body quickly adjusted. With another jump, he used a mound of dirt below to leap into the air again. Going up and down, it was just like the barrier mountain he had to cross every time he went to the barracks on the outskirts of the capital. It was frightening and dangerous. It was an extreme test of qinggong. At almost the same time, the person above him adjusted and dived down again. The two people faced each other again and actually began to fight in midair.
The purple figure's Xuan Tianming's martial arts were hard. Each move carried a strong sense of purpose and was extremely vicious. On the other hand, the white figure's Xuan Tianhua's martial arts were relatively gentle. His moves were often not to subdue the enemy, but to neutralize them. It was gentle and gentle. This kind of softness against that kind of hardness, it was hard to determine the victor in a short period of time. The people could only see the two people, one white and one purple, going up and down. Sometimes they were far away from the city wall, and sometimes they were stuck to the base of the wall. The people's thoughts rose and fell with this fight. They were all guessing who would win in the end. The Ninth Prince of Dashun and the Seventh Prince were truly fighting. Such a wonderful scene had never been seen before.
The soldiers all had their own thoughts. At this time, Xuan Tianming was already sullen to the extreme. When he raised his hand, his move was neutralized by Xuan Tianhua's gentleness. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth. "What is Seventh Brother trying to do?" he said fiercely. "You're sending me to Ji 'an County just to take away my soldiers? Just to take away my commander's seal? "
"That's right." Xuan Tianhua nodded. His expression didn't change.
"What are you trying to do?" Xuan Tianming was anxious. "Seventh Brother! Why won't you let me enter the city? "
Xuan Tianhua shook his head. "I'm already here. So, you should go back."
"The one who should go back should be you!" Xuan Tianming reached out to grab Xuan Tianhua's wrist. However, even though he used his fastest movement and his fingertips had already touched Xuan Tianhua's skin, Xuan Tianhua easily dodged. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth. "Seventh Brother, you lied to me!"
"That's right. I lied to you." Xuan Tianhua's movements were neither fast nor slow. His expression was calm. It didn't look like he was using all of his internal energy to fight the enemy. It was as if he was just walking on the street. He was so calm and at ease, as if he was just chatting. He told Xuan Tianming, "I lied to you to send the betrothal gifts to Madam An for me. In fact, I wanted to take away your commander's seal and fight this battle for you. I've already taken the city. The cities behind will soon be mine. Ming, listen to Seventh Brother's words. Go back! "
"Why?" When Xuan Tianming was anxious, the purple lotus between his eyebrows would bloom especially brightly. It was as if it was alive. It would take different forms according to his mood. "Didn't we agree that I would fight the battle? Seventh Brother, you would protect the capital. Why are you doing this now? Why do you have to come to the East for me? "
Xuan Tianhua's aura finally changed. Although it wasn't easy to be noticed by others, he knew that it was impossible to fight against this Ninth Brother without using all of his strength. "There's no need to ask why. Ming, Seventh Brother has never harmed you. Seventh Brother is doing this for your own good. "
"I know you're doing this for my own good!"
"Then go back." Xuan Tianhua didn't give him a chance to speak. He raised his internal energy and his hands moved faster. He actually pushed Xuan Tianming down. It was as if he wanted to push Xuan Tianming to the ground. "Go back! Treat Heng well. Take good care of Mother. Live the life you want to live. From now on, Seventh Brother will fight all the battles for you. Seventh Brother will bear all the dangers for you. Ming, forgive Seventh Brother. Take good care of yourself. "
After saying this, he suddenly increased his strength and his body spun. His movements were as fast as a ghost. Even Xuan Tianming, whose martial arts and qinggong were known as the best in the world, was dazzled by his movements. Xuan Tianming had always known that his Seventh Brother was hiding his strength. He had always known that his Seventh Brother was the number one expert in the world. He had always known that if the two of them were to face each other one day, he wouldn't be his opponent. But he didn't expect that this day would come so quickly. He didn't even see clearly when he received Xuan Tianhua's palm. The palm landed directly below his left shoulder, shaking his left arm to the point that he couldn't feel it. The internal energy accumulated in his body was also thrown into chaos. He desperately wanted to stabilize himself, but he couldn't compare to the strength of that palm.
Xuan Tianming started to fall, falling extremely quickly. No matter how much he wanted to raise his Qi and rise up, he was unable to exert any strength.
On the contrary, Xuan Tianhua had already returned to the top of the city walls. Looking at his younger brother who was falling, he opened his mouth and shouted to Bai Ze: "Catch your Master, send him back to the capital." After saying this, he turned around and said loudly to the soldiers: "Guard the city gates, no one is allowed to enter or leave. This Zong Sui, I will lead you to fight!"
In the end, Xuan Tianming was caught by Bai Ze. No matter how unwilling he was, the gates of Bin City never opened for him. He used his right hand to cover his left shoulder, looking up at the white figure on the city walls walking away with large strides. Everything in the surroundings returned to silence once again, as if nothing had happened just now. He was unwilling to accept this, instructing Bai Ze in a deep voice: "Think of a way to contact Qian Li. I want to know why this is happening!"
Bai Ze gritted his teeth in anger, saying unwillingly: "Is Your Highness the Seventh Prince going to fall out with Master?"
"Shut up!" He glared fiercely at Bai Ze, "How can Seventh Brother fall out with me. He stopped me from entering the city because he wanted to take the risk to fight this battle in Zong Sui for me. But why? In the past, when I fought Qian Zhou and Gu Shu, he did not do this. Why did it have to be Zong Sui … … "
The two of them could not understand. Bai Ze protected Xuan Tianming as they returned to Fu Zhou, staying in Fu Zhou's Hundred Herb Hall. Even though Xuan Tianhua's palm strike was not enough to severely injure him, he still needed to recuperate for a period of time before he could recover freely. During this period, Bai Ze contacted the spies they had secretly planted in Fu Zhou to think of a way to contact Qian Li. Finally, three days later, the spies sent back a note from Qian Li: During the battle in Zong Sui, Your Highness the Seventh Prince divined the signs of a great calamity.
Xuan Tianming held that note tightly in his hand. He knew it, he knew that there was definitely a reason for this. If not, his Seventh Brother would not be so determined.
Signs of a great calamity? There were signs of a great calamity, so Seventh Brother did not want him to take the risk and chose to go to war in his place, taking on that great calamity himself. Then what about him? Was he going to watch helplessly as his older brother went to die for him? That was definitely impossible.
"Bai Ze." He thought for a while and made a decision, "After waiting for three more days, we will move out. We will go around Bin City and wait directly at Jian City. I do not believe that if I enter the city first, he will be able to carry me out of the city? Also, use Fu Zhou's flying eagle to send a message to that liar girl behind us, ask her to go to Bin City to meet up with me. Don't think that I do not know that she is following behind us. "
