Chapter 54: Blood releases the seal, dialogue in the setting sun!

In the capital of Daliang, he killed the emperor of Daliang and the leader of Xuanming Sect, and now he wants the army of Daliang to escort him out of the city? What's the logic? No one would make such a pretentious and rude request, right?
But Li Xingyun brought it up anyway, and looked as if he had Zhong Xiaokui sure of his victory. The Ghost King that Li Xingyun mentioned just now was none other than Zhu Youwen, the son of Zhu Wen. He was not the cowardly fake who was in the court now, but the Ghost King Zhu Youwen who had once fought on the battlefield and could kill hundreds of people in the military formation!
Zhong Xiaokui of the Xuanming Sect is the confidant of the Ghost King Zhu Youwen. This matter is extremely secretive, and even the Emperor of the Underworld and Meng Po do not know about it. But Li Xingyun knows it, and he has made the most of the relationship between Zhong Xiaokui and the Ghost King today.

Zhong Xiaokui considers herself to be a killer with fairly stable emotions, but she feels that what happened today is a bit absurd and even a bit bewildered. Few people in the world know that she is loyal to the Ghost King Zhu Youwen. How does Li Xingyun in front of her know about this?
A few years ago, after the Ghost King was ambushed and injured by Li Keyong, he disappeared in the Xuanming Sect. The Hades Emperor found a person who looked somewhat similar to the Ghost King to impersonate the Ghost King. Zhong Xiaokui was very sure that the Ghost King's disappearance was caused by the Hades Emperor, but she did not have the energy to confront the Hades Emperor head-on, so she could only stay in the Xuanming Sect to do things and look for an opportunity to find out the whereabouts of the Ghost King. Now, Li Xingyun stated his needs directly as soon as he appeared, as if she had no secrets in front of him.

Facing the confident and proud Li Xingyun, Zhong Xiaokui's expressionless face flushed with anger for the first time. Huh, huh, Zhong Xiaokui gritted her teeth and looked at Li Xingyun. Her not-so-full chest even rose and fell violently due to her unstable breathing. She felt that she and even the entire Xuanming Sect were the playthings of the man in front of her. This feeling, this feeling was simply too... exciting!

"Give Way!"

Zhong Xiaokui stared at the man in front of her and raised her right hand holding the tiger talisman. The Daliang generals and soldiers behind her showed reluctance when they saw this, but military discipline came first and the tiger talisman gave the order, so they had to obey it.

Seeing the army slowly making way for a passage, although Li Xingyun remained calm, the bad guys behind him and the killers from Huanyinfang couldn't help but have a new understanding of Li Xingyun in front of them. The word "reliable" actually appeared on the 18-year-old Li Xingyun.

"He really gave way. It turns out that Zhong Xiaokui is loyal to the Ghost King." Fanyintian exclaimed. Xuanmiaotian beside him couldn't help but sighed: "So, doesn't it mean that the leader of the Xuanming Sect, Emperor Ming, doesn't have anyone of his own around him?"

Meng Po leaned on her cane and said calmly, "The five Yama Lords were loyal to the Hades Emperor, but they were dealt with by His Highness a long time ago."

When Meng Po said this, all the bad people around paused. They felt a little embarrassed. They had been coaxing the Hades like coaxing a child for so many years. Alas... everything is self-explanatory.

The empress glanced at Yuan Tiangang and then at Li Xingyun in the front. Logically speaking, it was impossible for Li Xingyun to complete such a large-scale layout in Luoyang at his age. This was not a simple undercover intelligence dispute. This was a complete undermining of the Xuanming Sect. The Unruly Leader who had lived for three hundred years was indeed terrifying, but...

But the empress always felt that Li Xingyun was the mastermind behind this matter. What was the relationship between Li Xingyun and Yuan Tiangang? Could it be that the bad commander, who had lived for three hundred years, was still so loyal to the Tang Dynasty? If so, it would be awe-inspiring. If not, what was he planning?

After a slight daze, the empress's eyes regained clarity. All this will be revealed later.

At this time, Li Xingyun had already arrived in front of Zhong Xiaokui. Looking at Zhong Xiaokui, who was a head shorter than him, Li Xingyun leaned over and whispered, "Be good and lead the way. I will tell you the news about the Ghost King after we leave the city. Don't play any tricks, or you'll be spanked..."

Zhong Xiaokui's eyes widened instantly, and a blush welled up from her neck. She didn't know why, but she felt as if something deep inside her heart had been poked. Her whole body felt hot, especially in front of so many people. This strange feeling made her voice a little hoarse when she spoke, "You'd better not lie to me, or I'll make you die ugly!"

"Haha, next time you say something harsh, remember to look the other person in the eye, don't hide." Li Xingyun patted Zhong Xiaokui on the shoulder and calmly stepped into the road lined with swords and guns, one step after another, walking very firmly and calmly, as if these soldiers were originally his subordinates. Zhong Xiaokui turned his head to look at Li Xingyun, his eyes slightly narrowed, this person, so strange...

Tick ​​tock, tick tock...

During the confrontation between Li Xingyun and Zhong Xiaokui, the blood of the Hades flowed into the ground through the cracks in the stone slabs. A dripping sound slowly rang out in the dark room behind the No. 1 cell in the Nether Prison. Suddenly, a pair of scarlet eyes opened in the darkness...

……

Luoyang official road.

"drive!"

Ji Ruxue drove the carriage with the reins in her hand, and asked the people behind her without turning her head, "So, your senior brother actually had a miserable life before he met you?"

"Yes." Lu Linxuan, who was sitting in the carriage, showed a look of nostalgia and said, "That year, I went to Yuzhou with my father and met my senior brother. At that time, he was with an old man, and the two of them lived by begging. It's hard to imagine that as a senior brother, he actually had such an experience."

Ji Ruxue's expression was calm. She said, "In this era, no one can choose their own destiny, not even your senior brother. When the smoke of war filled the city of Chang'an, the reputation of the Li Tang Dynasty decayed in the blood and flames of war."

Lu Linxuan looked reluctant as he sighed at the setting sun on the mountainside, "So, Senior Brother has too much on his shoulders. The entire Tang Dynasty, the entire world, is so heavy... Moreover, I see Senior Brother often has a smile on his face. It's strange. It seems that the person who has been bleaching outside Chang'an for many years is not him, and it seems that the person who lost his country and family and everything is not him."

Lu Linxuan lowered his head slightly and whispered, "We have been together for many years. I am the closest person to my senior brother, but it seems that I have never known him. He is like standing in the fog. I can touch him, but I can't see him clearly."

Ji Ruxue paused and replied calmly, "When a person has a peak in his heart to climb, the people behind him can only look up at his back. If you want to understand your brother, then go with him, climb the peak in his heart, and see the new Tang Dynasty together."

Lu Linxuan was stunned for a moment, then he stood up and put his right hand on Ji Ruxue's shoulder. He leaned over and asked Ji Ruxue's cheek, "What about you? Ji Ruxue?"
