Chapter 238 Sword (End)
"But since you have come from afar and have worked so hard, why don't you stay here?"
The sound of laughter naturally reached everyone's ears in the night wind, attracting everyone to look.
But on the eaves where the ugly man was supposed to take advantage of the opportunity to flee, under the bright moon, there suddenly appeared a handsome figure.
He has his hands behind his back, his scarlet robe fluttering in the wind, a jade belt tied around his waist, the bright moon shining in the sky behind him, and brilliant light shining on his body, he is truly a handsome man in the world.
However, he stopped as soon as he opened his mouth. Although there was a faint smile on his face, his eyebrows and eyes were sharp. He slowly scanned the situation in the courtyard, and his aura enveloped everyone.
As for the sudden retreat of Kuichou, it is not surprising.
This was because the handsome young man who suddenly appeared and called himself Xiao was of course the owner of Anle Pavilion. He was the actual killer of Gongyang Zuo and even the two bad guys in Yanzhou and Luoyang under him. He was one of the thirty-six captains of Tiangang who was in fact competing with the bad guys, Xiao Yan, the dark star.
Even though he was a hideous guy who had already glimpsed the threshold of the Great Heavenly Position, he did not dare to be arrogant now. What's more, he brought Yang Shuzi with him, so he did not dare to fight with Xiao Yan easily.
As for the mysterious woman in purple, her beautiful eyes widened in astonishment.
The banquet in the palace had not stopped yet. According to the regulations, it should have lasted until the end of Zi hour or the beginning of Chou hour. And she had clearly confirmed that Xiao Yan had entered the palace. Now the banquet had not ended and the imperial city was on guard, so why could he suddenly come out...
The operation was chosen tonight because we knew that Xiao Yan would go to the palace for the banquet. Since there was no real backbone in Anle Pavilion, and with the departure of Xiao Yan, a master whose specific strength was unknown, the chances of success would be greatly increased.
The reason why she came here to support Tiankui and his group was that after she knew that Anle Pavilion reacted quickly and realized that this action was already a trap, she took the risk to show up with the intention of ending it quickly, in order to help Tiankui and his group seize the opportunity to prevent the situation from getting out of control.
But what was horrifying was that Xiao Yan appeared immediately after she appeared.
She could even boldly guess that Xiao Yan might have managed to escape from the imperial city a long time ago, and then waited slowly in this Anle Pavilion. He might even drink tea while watching everyone fighting, and then wait for all the people who could be caught to appear one by one, and then show up in person to clean up the situation...
And she seemed to have become the last fish in this trip.
Sure enough, the next moment, Xiao Yan looked at the purple-dressed woman and nodded, as if being very polite: "It has been half a year since we last met. Tianyouxing is still as charming as ever. How are you?"
After these words, Gong Yangzuo, who was standing not far away with a sword in his hand, narrowed his eyes and looked up and down at the so-called Tianyouxing.
The palm strike just now forced him to retreat, which showed that this woman was quite powerful. Now it is not surprising.
"The sky is dark tonight..."
Seeing that Xiao Yan had revealed her identity, Shi Yao accepted it calmly, and then stepped forward, "With all this preparation, are you not planning to end it peacefully?"
Xiao Yan smiled and pointed at Kuichou: "The Marshal sent so many guests, we should prepare a bed to welcome them, right? Wouldn't it be rude if we don't stay in Anle Pavilion for a year or so?"
Tiankui and his group had already huddled around Kuichou, and remained silent when they heard this.
After hearing this, Shi Yao's eyes remained unchanged, and she just asked, "What if you don't agree?"
Xiao Yan laughed again, and then looked at the Yanzhou bad guys who were slightly injured or even seriously injured, and said after a moment of hesitation: "You have hurt my people. If you don't agree, then there will be no peace."
This time, Shi Yao was obviously included.
So, Gong Yangzuo snorted coldly, holding the knife, and just stared at Kuichou.
As for Shi Yao, after a moment of silence, she just looked at Xiao Yan with empty eyes without saying a word.
Xiao Yan laughed, his clothes fluttering in the wind. He took a step forward and fell like a flying feather. Then he soared up into the sky like a wild goose and circled in the sky. He walked towards Kuichou with a cold face.
"Don't fight too long."
Shi Yao spoke in a deep voice, not caring whether Kuichou and the others heard it clearly or not. She exerted force on her feet, and with a slight movement, she turned into a gust of fragrant wind and went straight towards Xiao Yan.
And in the moment she said this, she had already raised her palm, infused it with deep inner strength, and slapped the figure that was so fast that only a trace of crimson remained.
Xiao Yan had a blank expression on his face and also pushed out his palm to meet the attack. However, this palm, which seemed to be launched later, was actually launched at a speed and at an angle that was exactly opposite to Shi Yao's palm, without any difference.
When the two palms faced each other, it was like a firecracker exploding in the air.
Shi Yao's beautiful eyes changed slightly, and she waved her sleeves to cover it, then stepped back to the ground, taking three quick steps back.
On the other hand, Xiao Yan's momentum remained undiminished, and in just half a breath, he had already approached.
Shi Yao had no time to pay attention to the two parties fighting each other again. A fair jade hand had already grabbed a Tang sword on the ground. The blade was swung horizontally, and a light purple light cut through the sky.
The knife was extremely decisive and ruthless, but in a flash, the air in front of him seemed to have disappeared.
Xiao Yan's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes suddenly turned cold. Ghostly energy lingered between his hands. He slapped away the oncoming knife light while taking root under his feet and taking a step back to avoid the blade.
However, he did not entangle with Shi Yao, but suddenly turned over and jumped up, and pounced in front of the two Tiankui bad guys nearby, then spread out and flipped his hands, but in just an instant, he had hit the two men in the chest.
His attack was fierce and his purpose was clear. His figure only flashed by and several Tiankui bad guys behind him were knocked to the ground by his palm. Their faces turned black, and it seemed that they had completely lost their fighting power.
Shi Yao was very angry, but when she saw that he did not use any killing moves, she actually felt relieved. Then she chopped down two Luoyang bad guys with the back of her knife, took the opportunity to fly into the air, and suddenly lifted the purple veil on her face.
A stream of light purple light then surged out and filled the entire courtyard.
When this stream of light appeared, within a few feet, everyone, whether they were the Tiankui group or the bad people from Yanzhou and Luoyang, as well as anyone below the Heavenly rank, became like possessed in an instant. They all looked up with foolish smiles on their faces, as if they were possessed by demons.
Even the masters of heavenly rank and above present were inevitably affected. Gong Yangzuo used a sword to shake off Kuichou, and even he just quickly avoided his sight and then shook his head repeatedly, as if he wanted to calm his mind.
But soon, all the Tiankui quickly returned to normal, and without saying much, Kuichou picked up Yang Shuzi and left without any desire to fight.
Gong Yangzuo wanted to chase after him with his knife, but he lost the initiative in the end. Not only was his mind disturbed, but even his body movement slowed down by half.
Xiao Yan frowned. When he looked at her just now, he actually saw Shuliduo, who looked like Ji Ruxue, a surrendered minister, and even more like a woman wearing a dragon robe with her collar half-covered...
Even in the dark, that figure seemed to have some shadows of the empress, and there was a seductive look in her phoenix eyes...
It is extremely easy to make people feel agitated.
However, he had lived two lives and seen countless beauties. Not to mention his strong will, an indigo light flashed in his eyes, and his mind suddenly became clear.
It's a charm...
Among the beautiful women he met in the past two years, except for Fan Yintian from Huan Yin Fang, this seemed to be the second time he had seen someone who knew how to use charm. And it was obvious that Shi Yao's charm was many times more advanced than Fan Yintian's, and had already reached the point of bewitching.
With his mind set, he completely ignored Kuichou and the others who were leaving in all directions, and just whispered to Gongyang Zuo and the others, "Retreat."
Then, he closed his eyes, then raised his right hand and clenched his fist.
Within the palm of his hand, ghost energy was swirling, and its force seemed to have increased several times more than before. A huge suction force suddenly enveloped the entire place.
"sword--"
His eyes were one blue and one black, and when he raised them suddenly, he was filled with murderous intent.
"Come!"
hum-
With just this sound, sword lights appeared in all directions. It turned out that several long swords hidden somewhere in Anle Pavilion were unsheathed at the same time, and then they broke through their respective doors and soared into the sky.
However, there were clearly only a few flying swords, but the cold light covered all directions.
Not to mention the other long swords that shot up into the sky, among them, there was an eight-sided Han sword with a ring head that went straight towards Xiao Yan's outstretched hand.
At that time, everyone was already horrified. Among all the people present, only Yang Shuzi, who had been silent all the time, suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked up at the sword lights in disbelief.
As soon as Xiao Yan grasped the eight-sided Han sword, his eyes shone with light, and he swung the sword, destroying all the light purple light in the courtyard with one strike. Then, ghost energy suddenly spread on his left hand, and the evil wind rose. He clenched and twisted the sword in the air, and several long swords came out, turning into flashes of cold light, and flew towards Kuichou and others.
In addition to this, the eight-sided Han sword once again crossed over, and in a trance, it was as if a green arc moon was lit up in the bright moonlight on the ground. The sword light flashed, and all the people who were holding swords to block it were stunned on the spot.
click-
A series of shattering sounds followed. Shi Yao was originally raising her sword to ward off the flying swords, but before she could catch her breath, a dazzling sword light suddenly flashed past her. She immediately felt a fishy smell in her throat, and then the Tang sword in her hand suddenly broke when she turned around to block it.
"Well……"
Shi Yao took several steps back, but could not bear it any longer. She thrust the broken knife into the ground, covered her chest and half-knelt down. After a few trickles of blood flowed out of her mouth, she was able to steady herself.
She was in such a state, not to mention Kuichou and the others. All the blades that met the sword energy were broken into pieces, and those with weak internal strength fainted on the spot, and it was unknown whether they were alive or dead. And those who tried their best to use their internal strength to protect their bodies, like Kuichou, also had blood gushing out of their mouths, and their robes were also repeatedly stained by swords, as if they had several wounds.
Just like the rock-strong arm guard on Kui Si's wrist, it was now cracked while trying hard to block the attack, and was undoubtedly scrapped.
Yang Shuzi also felt uncomfortable, but was much more decent than Kuichou and others who had to withstand the sword energy. He stood with the support of the wall, but his eyes could not even blink and his face was moved.
As for Gong Yang Zuo, who had barely managed to pull everyone back, he was still frightened. He looked at the cracks on the wall in the distance with fear, and then kept gasping for breath.
At this moment, Xiao Yan held the sword diagonally down, the dark blue light in his eyes had not dissipated, but his sharp aura could not be suppressed, and the energy between the sword edges was raging, as if it was still about to burst out.
He then raised the sword in front of him, gently wiped the blade with two fingers of his left hand, and slowly exhaled cold air.
"The roc rises with the wind in one day..."
bass--
The tip of the sword gently touched the ground, and the raging sword energy suddenly dissipated.
"Soar up to ninety thousand miles!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several long swords came back and floated in front of him one after another. After careful counting, there were six swords in total. Together with the eight-sided Han sword in his hand, there were seven swords in total.
At this time, no one in the courtyard could be a match for Xiao Yan.
Shi Yao covered her chest and breathed incessantly, feeling her breath becoming disordered, as if she had been severely injured by the sword energy that carried endless madness just now. If it weren't for the wrong timing, she should have sat down to meditate immediately to consolidate her energy.
She tried to raise her head, looked at Yang Shuzi with some annoyance, and gently wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.
"You gave him the Green Lotus Sword Song..."
Yang Shuzi stroked his beard without answering. He just looked at Xiao Yan's seven swords. Thinking that he had just given him the sword techniques ten days ago, he just shook his head.
He has been using the Green Lotus Sword Song for many years, and the decline in his realm is even related to it. It is obvious that Xiao Yan has re-created this set of sword techniques, or even perfected it, and it is no longer the set of sword techniques he gave him.
And even in that hasty glance just now, he seemed to have a feeling, and flashes of inspiration repeatedly passed through his mind. As a swordsman who has been wielding a sword for many years, he could understand that this was because he had observed Xiao Yan's sword intent, and his own realm had been slightly improved.
Shi Yao certainly didn't care what he thought. She was just angry at the moment. In fact, she couldn't blame Yang Shuzi. She had seen the power of the Green Lotus Sword Song in Yang Shuzi's hands in the past, but it was not to the level of today. Different people have different needs for use. If Xiao Yan is a mediocre person, what's the use of giving the Tiangang Jue to the Marshal?
What made her angry was that she had clearly taken control of the situation and was about to complete the mission...
Just one sword, just a casual sword...
What on earth is going on with this Xiao Yan!!!
At this moment, a boot tip appeared in her sight. She looked up and saw Xiao Yan approaching her. The eight-sided Han sword was still stuck there, looking ordinary and without any power at all.
"I want to ask Tianyouxing a question, can you answer it?"
Yu Guangzhong, Gong Yangzuo and others have begun to quickly treat the wounded and captured Tian Kui and others. Yang Shuzi will naturally not let them go.
Shi Yao shook her head and said nothing.
Xiao Yan seemed to ignore it and continued to speak indifferently: "Who leaked the news of the Corpse Ancestor's surrender to Zhu Yougui?"
The former pursed his lips and still did not answer.
Xiao Yan was not in a hurry. He just squatted down and pinched the chin of the female senior with his hand. He looked at the latter's shocked and angry eyes and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "If the Xuanming Sect loses Meng Po, the situation will be either good or bad. It is really curious."
"you……!"
Shi Yao struggled to get away, and said angrily: "What do you know, you little brat? She..."
At this point, she uttered a bitter laugh, which seemed to contain a bit of sneer: "I advise you not to think too highly of the surrendered minister."
Xiao Yan couldn't help but frowned: "What do you mean?"
Shi Yao did not answer, but closed his eyes and said: "If Tian Anxing has the ability, he can kill me with one sword, why bother to say more."
"..." Xiao Yan frowned, but stood up and said, "You don't have to provoke me. Killing you will do me no good. But I am interested in taking a bite of the Xuanming Sect's pie, so please cooperate with me."
Shi Yao opened her eyes, only to be puzzled.
However, Xiao Yan's next words shocked her.
"What is your secret technique to impersonate Meng Po?"
"Don't even think about it..."
"Shh." Xiao Yan raised his finger and shook it left and right: "It doesn't matter if you don't say it, I will know it myself."
After saying this, he turned around and walked away, apparently thinking about something.
As for Gongyang Zuo and others, they would not come to disturb them. They just captured Kuichou and others one by one and sent them to other courtyards.
But at this moment, a deep voice suddenly sounded from all directions.
"Master Xiao is so powerful that even I, a humble monk, would be no match for him tonight."
Xiao Yan opened his eyes and turned to look.
Under the moon, a monk in a cassock holding a staff was walking towards us at a steady pace, with one hand in front of his chest bowing, while speaking something.
"Amitabha...
I am Huiming, a poor monk. I am honored to meet Mr. Xiao. "
------
"Waste, a bunch of waste, Tiankui, they are all waste!"
Under the moonlight, a masked young man ran quickly in the alley, cursing angrily.
But even so, he was carrying Luo Xiaobei, who was still unable to speak, on his back. It was obvious that he was escaping with a hostage. I couldn't tell whether it was cold sweat or hot sweat, but it kept oozing out of his forehead.
Not long after he quickly walked through the alley, another beautiful figure hurriedly followed him. The girl had a cold expression on her face. After thinking for a moment, she continued to fall slowly and calmly behind him.
