Xin Jikui, who had the demeanor of a gentleman, was still able to keep his composure after being pinned down. It could be said that he was quite courageous. He did not think that there was a reason for him to attack the emissary as soon as they met. He thought that the emissary was just trying to scare him and gain an advantage in the negotiation. He shouted, "When two countries fight, we do not kill emissaries!"
Jiang Wanlou sneered, "What kind of emissary are you? Fine, I will not kill emissaries, I will only chop off your hands. "
The two cultivators grabbed onto Xin Jikui's hands and forcefully pulled them away from him. They even pulled out their swords. Only then did Xin Jikui realize that they were not just trying to scare him. They were serious. He was so frightened that he lost all his demeanor. His expression changed drastically and he struggled with all his might.
However, his transcendence energy was restricted, and he was no different from a mortal. How could he withstand the tugging of the two cultivators? In his panic, he shouted, "Niu Youdao, don't you want to kill Niu Youdao?"
The two disciples who grabbed him immediately looked at the sect master with questioning eyes.
Jiang Wanlou raised his eyebrows and lifted his chin slightly, "Chop him off first!"
"Stop! Stop! I have something to say, I have something to say … "Xin Jikui shouted in panic but he was powerless. The other party did not listen to any of his explanations.
It was true that Niu Youdao had explained too much previously. Every explanation was reasonable but in the end, they were all bullsh * t.
The two cultivators grabbed onto his arms. They raised their swords and chopped off his arms on the spot. Two streams of blood spurted out.
"Ah!" Xin Jikui screamed in pain. His arms were chopped off and he fell to the ground. His arms were bleeding profusely as he trembled on the ground.
Not only did they chop off his arms, they also chopped off both of his arms.
Zuo Chengfeng and Mi Man looked at each other. They both knew that Jiang Wanlou had just suffered a loss and was holding back a bellyful of anger. Now that someone had come to him to vent his anger, Jiang Wanlou naturally would not let him go. Now that he had regained some face, he had to look better in front of the disciples.
Jiang Wanlou slightly raised his chin and gestured. The two disciples threw away the severed arms in their hands and went forward to help Xin Jikui stop the bleeding. There was no hurry to kill him.
When the pale-faced Xin Jikui finally recovered from the pain, Jiang Wanlou said, "Kill Niu Youdao? People from the Yan Kingdom came over and said that they wanted to kill people from the Yan Kingdom. Interesting. If you really want to talk, I'm sure you won't care about these two arms. Speak, what do you want to say? You'd better tell me the truth, or else your head will be chopped off. "
Xin Jikui's heart was filled with boundless grief and indignation. Previously, Meng Xuan had summoned a few disciples and asked who would be willing to be a lobbyist. A few of the disciples were all eager to contribute to this. In the end, Xin Jikui's eloquence had satisfied Meng Xuan the most and he had taken the initiative to fight for it. Who would have thought that as soon as he arrived, before he could even use his eloquence to persuade them, both of his arms were chopped off.
Regret! Regret should not have come. No matter how great the merit was, it could not be compared to losing two arms. If the Spirit Sword Sect's Imperial Sword User lost their arms, their cultivation would be greatly reduced, and their future would be over. No matter how great the merit was, it could not be made up for.
At this point, regret was useless. Since he had accepted the task, he had to complete it. Otherwise, he would have suffered in vain. He only hoped that after he completed the task, he would ask his Master to wait for the army to break through Zhao Country to take revenge.
Nevertheless, he still asked, "Why do you treat me like this?"
Actually, he already knew the reason. Because he knew the reason, he thought he had the confidence to persuade them. Who would have thought that the other side would not allow him to speak and would find a reason to directly attack him?
Because of this, he felt that he was wronged.
Jiang Wanlou said, "There's no why."
Xin Jikui said, "Can't I die knowing the reason?"
Jiang Wanlou would not tell him that he had suffered a loss at the hands of Niu Youdao, so he vented his anger on him. "Who do you think you are? This is not your place to talk nonsense. If you want to die, I'll grant your wish!"
Xin Jikui said, "Is it because Niu Youdao cut off your disciple's palm that you vented your anger on me?"
Jiang Wanlou suddenly became angry out of shame. "It seems like you're really tired of living."
Not waiting for the two cultivators who chopped off his arm to make their move, Xin Jikui immediately said, "Don't you want to kill Niu Youdao to avenge your hatred? Niu Youdao is seriously injured. As long as the Yan army cooperates, they can easily kill Niu Youdao. Don't tell me you want to miss such a great opportunity? "
Jiang Wanlou grunted and raised his hand to stop the two disciples. "You mean, your Spirit Sword Mountain and I are working together to kill Niu Youdao?"
Xin Jikui said, "It's not just my Spirit Sword Mountain. With Sect Leader Jiang's vision, you should know that the three major Yan sects want to get rid of Niu Youdao. However, they are forced by the situation to make a move on him."
Jiang Wanlou said, "Do you think I'll believe your nonsense?"
Zuo Chengfeng, who was sitting on the side, also stood up and said, "You want to lure us to send someone to assassinate him, and then you can catch us all in one fell swoop?"
Xin Jikui said, "Your assassination is just a show. As long as the person you send is strong enough, even if you can't succeed, it shouldn't be difficult for you to escape."
Zuo Chengfeng said, "Show? And even if we can't succeed? Then do we still need to send people to take the risk? "
Xin Jikui said, "You just need to prove that it's your people who want to assassinate Niu Youdao and create a disturbance. At that time, a group of your accomplices will naturally emerge from the Yan army."
As soon as these words came out, Zuo, Jiang, and Mi, three people looked at each other and roughly understood what he meant. The three major Yan sects were ready to personally kill Niu Youdao, but they didn't want to take the responsibility. They wanted Zhao Country to be the scapegoat.
Mi Man also slowly stood up. "You're in our hands, so you're a witness. Aren't you afraid that we'll tell Shang Chaozong the inside story?"
Xin Jikui bent his body to get up, and then slowly stood up. "I'm not a witness in your hands. I can only say that I accidentally fell into your hands. Who doesn't know that Zhao Country is trying to solve this problem? You're just trying to sow dissension. Do you think Shang Chaozong will easily believe it?"
"Even if he suspects it, in the current situation, as long as it's too late, Shang Chaozong can only choose not to believe it. If my arms were not cut off, Shang Chaozong might still believe it. Without these arms, haha, they caught a valuable witness. Do you think it's possible that they'll deliberately hurt him instead of protecting him? "
Zuo Chengfeng and Mi Man glanced at Jiang Wanlou. Jiang Wanlou's face twitched slightly, as if he was also wondering if he did something wrong by cutting off Xin Jikui's arms.
But what's done is done, there's no use regretting it.
Zuo Chengfeng said, "You're quite bold to come here with such a glib tongue. Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to go back?"
Xin Jikui said, "As long as you want to kill Niu Youdao, you have to let me go back."
"Have to?" Zuo Chengfeng laughed. "What do you mean have to? As long as the three major Yan sects want to kill Niu Youdao, do you think they won't be willing to sacrifice you? "
Xin Jikui said, "I know where Niu Youdao is in the Yan army. I know which airspace to reach the target. It'll be fine. I'm the guide. If you don't see me, the guards in the air won't let you go. You won't be able to get close. Only when I'm out of danger and jump down from the air will I point you to the target. If I can't go back, my side won't send people to die. If I can't go back, even if you send people to contact me, do you think my side will still believe your sincerity? "
…
The tent where Niu Youdao was in was surrounded by heavily armed soldiers. Archers and siege crossbows were on duty in shifts. A group of cultivators was on high alert day and night. No one was allowed to get close without permission.
The target was obvious. No one from the three major Yan sects was allowed to get close!
Shang Shuqing stayed by the bed. Most of the time, his eyes were fixed on Niu Youdao's sleeping face. This man had never let her down when something happened.
Her mind kept replaying the scenes since they met. While she was distracted, she didn't know if it was her illusion, but Niu Youdao seemed to have woken up. He seemed to be looking at her and smiling. She also smiled.
"Princess." Niu Youdao called out to her.
Shang Shuqing suddenly woke up and realized that it wasn't an illusion. He was really awake. He screamed, "Daoye!"
Guan Fangyi, Yun Ji and Wu Zhaoxing, who were meditating in the tent, suddenly opened their eyes. Seeing that Niu Youdao was awake, they also stood up and quickly walked over.
Yun Ji and Wu Zhaoxing were begged by Guan Fangyi to stay. She needed their strength to guard against the unpredictable risks against Niu Youdao.
"Daoye, you're awake. How do you feel?" Guan Fangyi asked joyfully.
Niu Youdao used his arm to support himself and wanted to sit up. His wound pulled, causing his face to twitch violently.
Guan Fangyi and Shang Shuqing wanted to help him lie down but Niu Youdao shook his head. They had no choice but to help him sit up.
Niu Youdao sat cross-legged to regulate his breathing. After slowly exhaling, he looked around and realized that he was still in the military tent. He asked in a deep voice, "Why are we still here?"
They looked at each other. Did he become muddle-headed from his illness?
Guan Fangyi asked, "If not here, then where?"
Niu Youdao was silent for a while. He calmed himself down and recalled the previous situation. He had a keen sense of danger approaching. He remembered that when he temporarily regained consciousness and saw Long Xiu, he was worried that there was danger. He seemed to have already reminded Guan Fangyi. He didn't expect that they had not evacuated and were still here. He sighed, "I can't blame you. I was not clear-headed earlier. This place is not suitable to stay. Let's go! "
Go? Shang Shuqing hurriedly said, "Big Brother has sent a large number of soldiers and armors to surround and protect this place. There shouldn't be any danger."
"If I really wanted to harm you, I would have found a way to protect you. You are right under my nose and I can't move freely. Why did you send a large number of soldiers and armors to protect this place?" Niu Youdao was stunned for a while and asked the others, "What happened?"
"Sigh, Prince and Marshal Meng are also emotional people. They directly went against the people from the three major sects …" Guan Fangyi told them about the situation of the soldiers.
Unexpectedly, Niu Youdao suddenly narrowed his eyes and said without hesitation, "Let's go. Let's go immediately." After saying that, he picked up the sword that was placed at the side.
When he touched the sword, he was stunned again. He turned it over and pulled out a part of it. The words' Blood of Loyalty 'were still on the blade.
He looked at Yun Ji and Yun Ji nodded slightly, "I found it for you."
