Chapter 64: The Might of the Sword Master

The winter night is quiet, the palace that encompasses half of the Jade Emperor Mountain is brightly lit, and the outer house is still filled with the noise of guests.

After Xu Buling and Xiao Qi separated, they came to the shore of the West Lake, changed into night clothes in a secluded place, jumped into the tall wall of King Wu's mansion from the shadows, and marched towards the back house from above the building.

handed over the jade pendant, naturally to see what King Wu was looking for. Since King Wu was in a hurry to leave, he must have prepared well in advance, ready to test the authenticity of the jade, and if he didn't check it at this time, he would wait until King Wu returned the jade after using it, but it would be too late.

The scale of the palace is huge, but King Wu has difficulty moving, and he has to walk in the palace. Xu Buling crawled on the top of the gorgeous building, relying on his excellent hearing and eyesight, and soon found Song Siming, the king of Wu, sitting on the carved chariot in the verandah in the distance.

Song Siming was holding two jade artifacts in his hand, his expression was extremely cautious, and next to him was the strategist Han Xianchu, holding two wooden boxes in his hands, if he guessed correctly, it contained a sword spike and another jade, and Wang Zou Yin of the Wang clan in Hangzhou also walked in front of him.

The distance was too far to hear what to say, Xu Buling followed silently in the dark, and soon walked to a three-story viewing building by the lake, outside the building was heavily guarded, and the accompanying people were left outside.

Xu Buling observed carefully, and with his extraordinary light skills and insight, he bypassed the guard's sight, followed the lake to the bottom of the observation deck, and his five fingers were directly buckled into the beams and pillars like hooks, and he climbed up silently, listening to the footsteps inside to determine the position, and finally stopped outside the room on the top floor.

Xu Buling knew that there must be masters around, so he held his breath and carefully drew an undetectable gap in the window paper, and glanced inside—the large room was empty, and there was a shelf in the middle, which was full of candles and copper mirrors, and rice paper was placed in the middle of the shelf.

In addition to King Wu who was sitting in the room, Han Xianchu and Wang Zou Yin were standing near the shelf, and there was a middle-aged man in a scholar's robe next to him, standing with his back to his hands.

"Let's get started."

King Wu sat on the couch and rubbed his fingers, staring intently at the wooden frame.

The middle-aged man in a literary robe took out four jade objects, the last of which was a jade bracelet. The four jade objects were placed in various positions on the shelf, and with a flick of his fingers he lit the fire fold, lighting the candles one by one.

As the candle flame was lit, the room was obviously much brighter, and the light gathered on the jade under the refraction of the bronze mirror, so that the shadows of the four jade objects fell on the rice paper, because the effect of the jade light transmission was different, and the light and shade of the shadows were also different, and some thin lines in the shadows were faintly visible.

The middle-aged scholar carefully adjusted for a moment, and after making sure that the shadows were clear, he took out a brush and carefully traced the line on the rice paper.

There was silence in the room, except for the faint sound of a pen swiping across the paper, and all eyes were focused on the rice paper.

Since Xu Buling hadn't found the middle-aged scholar beforehand, it meant that the other party's internal breath might be longer than him, so he didn't even breathe, and squinted his eyes to check it.

In the room, Wang Zou Yin frowned for a moment, and said suspiciously: "It looks like Youzhou Bodhi Island, and the clan has been here for business before......"

When King Wu heard this, his brows furrowed slightly: "Youzhou...... Where exactly? ”

The shadows are more complicated, and once the brush is painted, the light is blocked, and the drawing is not fast, and it takes half an hour to draw a rough outline. Zuo Zhexian's seclusion must be the same as the old master of Yuelu Mountain, and he has arranged a lot of obscuring methods similar to a labyrinth, and the correct route is not drawn so quickly.

Xu Buling held his breath for a quarter of an hour, his face had begun to turn blue, but his expression did not change, he still clasped the brick wall with his five fingers, stuck it outside the window and waited carefully for the result.

It's just that when Xu Buling was looking at it, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart and realized that something was wrong.

It was the slightest sign before this danger came, which was enough for the top martial artists to notice, and Xu Buling didn't hesitate to push the wall without hesitation, pushing his body out of the air.

The next moment, the cold light in front of him shocked the sun and the moon, like a cloud dragon entering the bay.

A white afterimage flashed from the place where Fang Cai was, the sound had not come, the sharp sword blade had already shattered the entire window, and the fast Ning Ren was outrageous, Xu Buling had already been divided on the spot if he was half a minute slower.

Xu Buling has been in this world for a few years, and it is the first time that he was shocked and almost messed up, his heartbeat was several times faster in an instant, the sword was so fast that he could not see that he was not weaker than Xue Chengzhi at this moment, Xu Buling couldn't fight alone with people in the tiger's den in Longtan, and he didn't even have time to look at the white shadow, so he stepped on the wall and fell directly towards the deep lake below.

Puff –

After falling into the water, Xu Buling's body turned into a black arrow, and fled outward from the bottom of the water, the speed was too fast, and a white line spread outward on the surface of the water that was visible to the naked eye.

"Who-"

The sound of windows popping and falling water came almost simultaneously, and it was only then that the people in the room let out a cry of rage, and the armor downstairs turned back in a daze.

Xu Buling blinked in the cold and biting lake water for a distance of more than ten zhang, poked his head out of the water, looked back at the situation, and the scene was terrifying.

I saw that on the brightly lit observation deck, two figures leaped out one after the other, and one of them almost obscured the moonlight with a sharp sword, and the sword roared like a dragon chanting in the sky.

And the other person, that is, the middle-aged scholar who was just now, was almost ghostly, and he jumped into the air without making a sound, but his speed was a few points faster than that swordsman, and he was obviously a top master of the inner family.

Two afterimages rushed out of the observation deck, and under the black sky, rushed towards Xu Buling, who was speeding away from the shore of the lake.

Pedal Pedal –

Obviously in the water, Xu Buling heard clear footsteps, and looked back in a hurry, but saw that the two guards who rushed out came directly on the water, and the speed was not much worse than running on land.

!!

Xu Buling's eyes showed a little consternation, he took the road of a foreign family, swords, guns, swords and fists all paid attention to the big opening and closing, fierce and domineering, practicing the eight poles instead of Tai Chi, and the internal kung fu of floating on the water was not very good. In his understanding, even if he is a good hand at walking the inner road, it is impossible to run so far by stepping on the water, a hundred or so steps to the sky, and the consumption is extremely high, these two are really a little scary.

Although the sky was extremely dark and he couldn't see who the pursuer was in the water, Xu Buling also recognized that the one who used the sword must be his father-in-law Zhu Liu, who was swimming at an alarming speed in the lake like a black bar in the waves......
