Chapter 53: 'Faithfulness'

"Yan Qi, you go and secretly send private soldiers to search, and I will stay here for the time being to investigate."

Facing the endless corpses that were emerging at the moment, the Son of Heaven commanded coldly.

"Your Majesty, this place is really dangerous now, and the remains of private soldiers are frequent, so let your subordinates accompany you ......"

"Needless to say! Hurry up! ”

Yi Zhixing's eyebrows were solemn, and his words were full of ruthlessness, leaving no room for people to put their beaks. In desperation, Yan Qi frowned and was forced to leave.

"Wait!"

As soon as the Son of Heaven's voice fell, Yan Qi thought that there was a turnaround, but he didn't expect Yi Zhixing to reach out and pull out the sharp blade on his waist, and then said again.

"Now you can leave."

The Son of Heaven paced deeper with his blade, and there was no soothing posture on his face, before this, he had never expected that the situation was already so serious, it was beyond imagination.

Seeing this, Yan Qi muttered softly, looked at the empty scabbard on his waist, and jumped away from here soon after.

At this moment, the Son of Heaven is alone in danger, on the one hand, he believes in his martial arts, and on the other hand, he is so angry with Zhilan that he can't wait to drag the sick body to find her. It is clear that the truth has not yet been revealed, but Yi Zhixing has already scolded Zhilan more than a hundred times in his heart.

"Traitor, when I see you, I will slash you on the spot!"

Obviously, Yi Zhixing had already decided that the sudden death of the private soldier must have nothing to do with Zhi Lan, even if Lu Yu was an obstacle, it was the result of Zhi Lan's defection. And the scene of Zhi Lan's escape is also frequently in the mind of the Son of Heaven, if this incident really happens, Yi Zhixing may not be able to forgive the self who had given Zhi Lan an instant benevolence. If Zhilan can't be used for herself, benevolence will be meaningless.

Walking to the depths, the hustle and bustle of the hall has gradually faded, and the moonlight has lost its brilliance here, most of the light is hidden by the forest leaves, and the eyebrows of the Son of Heaven have become more and more fierce.

Just as he was vigilant and rising sharply, there seemed to be a 'rustling' sound not far away.

Immediately, Yi Zhixing became inexplicably excited, and every time his eyes intersected with this dark situation, he could exude some kind of real poison, almost integrated with the boundless night around him, the same horror, the same yin owl, this was a good time for him to show his true face without taboo.

The Son of Heaven paced lightly along the sound of 'squirping', as if sensing that someone was approaching, and the sound of 'squirping' only passed for a while.

Ke Yi is an alert beast, even if it is only a momentary sound, he is enough to discern the root cause of the information that leaks out in this instant, not to mention that the forest leaves here are indeed wafting with a strange smell that is very different from the fragrance of the laurel trees around him.

This must be the smell of blood and the unclear smell of corpses that have not been killed for a long time.

When Yi Zhixing approached, the long-lost 'squirting' sound resounded again, and the sound was huge, and it immediately turned into a squirting figure and rushed up.

The figure tried to break free from Yi Zhixing's approach, but its flying figure was so staggering, how could it escape Yi Zhixing's eagle eyes and vigorous skills and the ferocity when he revealed his true face.

"Smack!"

In the end, the figure that tried to abscond was unsurprisingly knocked down on the grass by Yi Zhixing, and under the cold moonlight, the true traces of the figure were unconcealed at the bottom of the eyes of the Son of Heaven, which was a familiar face, familiar body shape and familiar voice.

"Easy ...... Easy to travel ......"

It seems that he didn't expect that the person in front of him would be the son of heaven, Zhi Lan, who was lying on the ground, was immediately stunned, and somehow, there was a clear touch of happiness and hope in his face.

At this moment, what appeared in Yi Zhixing's eyes was a woman with a serious injury, the woman's clothes were cut by the blade again, not to mention for the time being, even her exposed skin was tragically carved with blood, and the veil that previously covered her face was nowhere to be seen. Since he met Zhilan, Yi Zhixing has rarely witnessed his safety, and now he sees Zhilan injured, he is a little surprised, if Zhilan is safe and sound, Yi Zhixing feels strange.

With a cold eye, the Son of Heaven did not immediately slash Zhilan as he said, but forced him to ask again and again.

"Traitor, how did those private soldiers die, did you turn against me? Where is Lu Yu now? ”

As soon as the cold words came out, seeing the face of the Son of Heaven now full of murderous intent, Zhi Lan couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, fortunately, the moonlight was dim, and the Son of Heaven couldn't capture his hasty appearance, otherwise Zhi Lan would not be able to pretend to be the next drama.

However, she did not know about the private soldiers, all she knew was that she had indeed defected to Yi Zhixing, and lost her wife and soldiers, not only failed to defect, but was also bitten by Lu Yu. It turned out that the rebellious monarch wanted to kill himself who was entangled in front of him early in the morning, and now that he saw Yi Zhixing, Zhilan felt that he was not so hateful, at least he left his life for the time being. Of course, this is just a temporary delusion on Zhilan's part.

"What private soldiers? I don't know what you're talking about......"

Zhi Lan endured the severe pain and tried her best to sit up, but she was disturbed by Yi Zhixing's feet, and she was pressed back to the ground by the Son of Heaven again.

"Easy Trip...... What are you going to do? If it weren't for your delay this time, how could I have ended up in such a field! And now you are still punching and kicking me! You brute! ”

The boundless fainting was mixed with pain, and she instantly retracted the delusion that she felt was not so hateful in front of her.

"Traitor, I didn't punch and kick you, but I just touched you lightly, who told you to be so weak, you will fall down when you touch it, why do you blame me?"

The Son of Heaven lightly hooked his lips, a miserable smile wrapped in his suspicious thoughts, he couldn't believe what Zhi Lan said, and the next moment, the cunning turned into murderous intent, the smile was fixed on his face, and Yi Zhixing's face was darkened.

"Say! What did you do privately behind my back with Lord Lu! Are those private soldiers dead at your hands or at his hands? Tell me honestly, or I'll kill you instantly!" ”

As he spoke, the cold light appeared from the hands of the Son of Heaven, and Zhi Lan suddenly felt that her abdomen and back were under attack, and she couldn't fall well on either side.

"Easy trip! You...... Cough...... Cough...... Why do you always splash sewage on me! I have never rebelled against the lord of Gollu! It's clear that you're late tonight, why don't you reflect on your mistakes, but instead blame me for not coming! "Zhilan's emotions were extremely excited, and her mouth was bloodshot, and she tried her best to hold back all the discomfort and firmly stick to her 'loyalty' position.

"And where did your injuries come from?"

"It's not because you've been showing up for a long time! I am defenseless, which naturally arouses Lu Yu's suspicions, and I finally lure him here, and you! What about your subordinates! Lu Yu has inserted a lot of guards in this palace early in the morning, do you think I can resist it! It's all your fault! Where the hell have you been? ”

Zhi Lan completely forgot the fact that she had once thought about betraying Lu Yu, and now her eyes could only tolerate the anger of Yi Zhixing's failure to make an appointment. She had never imagined that the subordinates that Lu Yu used to kill Yi Zhixing would turn their blades at herself, and at that time, Zhi Lan even thought about whether Yi Zhixing would defect to Lu Yu, so that the two of them would join forces to trap themselves in danger. I have to say that Zhi Lan and Yi Zhixing's ability to be jealous of each other is really the same. They clearly distrust each other, but they want to take risks and play this 'alliance' trick.

When Zhilan finished speaking, there was a faint sound of footsteps on the side. The two glanced at each other, and vigilance surged into their hearts in unison, and Yi Zhixing finally moved the clear killing intent out of Zhi Lan's body, Zhi Lan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and privately thought that he had escaped again.

The next moment, before Zhi Lan came back to his senses, he saw the Son of Heaven in front of him leap into the darkness ahead, and soon after, the sound of fighting came into his ears, and Zhi Lan hurriedly sat up with the pain.

She knew that it must be Lu Yu who had just captured and killed her, and her subordinates Tong Yi Zhixing who were confronted head-on. At this moment, Zhi Lan suddenly recalled the situation when she tried her best to argue for her innocence, if Yi Zhixing learned that she had indeed had the intention of defecting, wouldn't it be difficult to escape death?

In any case, this is the only last chance to prove the 'innocence' of her infamous self, and Zhilan needs to grasp it well.

"Humph! Yin Jun really wanted to join forces with that woman to kill me! It's a pity, I'm afraid you can't do it now, and your private soldiers have already been killed by me in one fell swoop. Yin Jun also had a day of defeat, how does this feel? ”

On the other side, Lu Yu was provocative, his eyebrows and eyes were still as unruly and cold as when he was in the banquet hall, he didn't care about the identity of the person in front of him at all, in short, he was just the person who should be eliminated in his eyes.

"It turns out that those useless subordinates of mine were harmed by the lord of Lu? I heard that Lord Lu still has many subordinates in my palace, in order to defend against my scheming intentions? Lord Lu is really powerful. ”

Yi Zhixing's eyes narrowed slightly, obviously to the point of extreme displeasure.

He constantly confronted the endless black shadows, but he was never able to get close to Lu Yu, who was sheltered by this group of black shadows, and he was unwilling in his heart.

"Hmph, all I did was just for you to stop the vile people's actions, and no matter how powerful I was, I couldn't catch up with your viciousness. However, Yin Jun, you are really as I expected, not as gentle and humble as you seem, I'm afraid that tonight it is my ability to force out your true face? What an honor it would be. ”

Lu Yu's face was undoubtedly tainted with some elements of self-satisfaction, he didn't know that the faces of the people in front of him were actually due to his previous unbridled doubts about Zhi Lan, and he didn't know that Yi Zhixing was even more vicious than he expected.

"Oh? Do you know that anyone who can see my true face will die unexpectedly? ”

The tone of the Son of Heaven became more and more vicious, and he was desperate to kill this traitor who dared to be invincible in front of his eyes, but the dark shadow in it was indeed so that Yi Zhixing could not easily carry out the thoughts in his heart.

"Died unexpectedly? Hmph, then I will set a precedent in Yin Jun's life, you are destined to not be able to kill me, just like the woman who is suitable for not being able to ...... with a clumsy downfall"

Sure enough, Lu Yu did not disappoint Zhi Lan in the end, he tried to say Zhi Lan's jealous words, but as soon as the soft sound of 'falling' came out, Zhi Lan stabbed her blade as if in stress, her figure staggered behind Lu Yu like a ghost, and the blade in her hand immediately pierced the man's left chest without reaction, Lu Yu's ridicule still remained in his mouth, but the body finally fell on the grass of Yin Palace, which he hated.

Seeing this scene, Yi Zhixing was shocked, and the dark shadows around him were even more panicked.

It's a pity that the moment of confusion is only a moment, and the next moment, the light blade that was still directly attacking the Son of Heaven suddenly turned to gallop towards Zhi Lan, Zhi Lan staggered, and his heart was full of uneasiness.

The blade in the woman's hand was picked up by her from the remains of Lu Jun's subordinates she had killed earlier, although she could use this blade to kill Lu Yu, she didn't think that she could still use this blade to resist the large number of black shadows that ushered in, at this moment, the sense of oppression was approaching, and Zhi Lan became more and more frightened.
