Looking at the woman's kneeling and praying, Xu Ziling was a little unbearable, but he didn't dare to promise anything easily, he was not a saint, if his life was in danger, he would definitely slip away.

Helping up the woman who couldn't stop crying, Xu Ziling took the sword and decided to walk towards the encirclement.

The old man's seven secret sentinels also broke free from the assassin's entanglement after losing three of them, and went to rescue the five old men who were in danger.

The Assassins spotted Xu Ziling, Dark Sentry and the others approaching, and immediately divided into two groups of five men each to stop them.

It was the elite of the assassins who besieged and killed the old man, and the secret sentinel instantly fell into a difficult struggle. And Xu Ziling is also tied to his back with his sword, and he fights hand-to-hand with one to many, and he is still proficient in boxing.

In order to prevent the assassins from forming an encirclement of him, Xu Ziling kicked his feet, and his figure galloped away, handing out his fists to shake the assassins.

The assassin was not afraid of the anger of his fist, and raised his dagger to stab at him. The burst punch instantly hit the dagger, shocking the assassin with the dagger and staggering back a few steps, before he could stand on his chest before he took another punch and flew straight upside down.

The four nearby assassins hurriedly killed together, Xu Ziling didn't dare to take the risk, and pulled his body backwards with a flick of his legs, trying to use his body to break each of them. Two of the Assassins took out their short crossbows, drew their arrows from their waists and began to wind them, while the other two struck with their daggers in both directions.

The breath in his body flowed, Xu Ziling leaned forward again, and the fist and dagger collided again.

However, the two assassins with daggers were quite good, the daggers and Xu Ziling's fists were separated by a touch, not touching him, only pacing around him, attacking and defending with a dagger, alternating left and right, tightly entangled him, so that he could not attack any of them with all his strength.

Xu Ziling, who was in the middle of it, frowned, seeing the unloading techniques and body protection aura of these two assassins, his strength was not much different from that of the three heroes of the Ruan family.

However, his physical attainments are higher than those of his fists, and he can advance and retreat freely, but if he wants to save the old man, he must first deal with the assassin in front of him who is like a maggot with a bone.

didn't have time to think about it, Xu Ziling just used all his strength and kept punching. There is no way to break the game, so it has to be longer than the breath of one to one. After dozens of punches, the two assassins became tired and a little out of strength. The two of them have not yet entered the house, the dantian has not been opened, and the air pockets in their bodies cannot accumulate too much true qi.

Suddenly, one of the Assassins took a step back, trying to breathe, leaving the other Assassin alone to face Xu Ziling. The opportunity was fleeting, and half of the threat was missing, Xu Ziling decisively sacrificed a killing move, one step closer to the assassin, and at the same time slammed a fist into the assassin's face, the assassin raised a dagger in one hand to resist, and the other hand did not forget to counterattack, stabbing Xu Ziling in the abdomen.

But hearing Xu Ziling sneer, his right shoulder moved suddenly, and he hit the assassin on the shoulder. The assassin suddenly lost his center of gravity and messed up the road, and then saw Xu Ziling's right fist blasting again, but he had no time to resist.

In an instant, the two assassins behind also seized the opportunity and raised their crossbows to shoot at Xu Ziling, who was throwing punches, if he insisted on punching, he might not have time to dodge the crossbow arrows.

Xu Ziling noticed the crossbow arrows flying towards the back of his head, but he didn't stop, and still punched the assassin's heart in front of him, causing the assassin to die on the spot, and at the same time, the arrow flew in, but he saw a flash of red light behind him, and Chixiao flew out, just blocking the two arrows.

The assassins were stunned for a moment when they saw this sword technique, but they saw Xu Ziling raise his hand to hold the sword glowing red, and rushed to the side to take the opportunity to breathe.

The two assassins with crossbows hurriedly pulled the strings and arrows again, but saw Xu Ziling pierce the throats of his companions with a sword, and hurriedly retreated to the main force in the rear for help.

At this time, there was a sudden sound not far away, and it seemed that the army in the city rushed over when they heard the news. However, at this time, not only did the secret sentinel all fall to the ground, but two of the guards beside the old man had also fallen, leaving only the last two guards to protect the old man in the center.

And Xu Ziling is also a long distance away from the old man, and the surrounding assassins have also begun to fight hard, and the old man is at risk of being killed at any time.

At the last moment, I heard Xu Ziling roar: "Send Lord Wang to the sword!" ”

I saw that the Chixiao sword flew out of the young man's hand, and in an instant, it hung above the head of the old man in the circle, and the red sword was extremely dazzling in the night.

Before they had time to think about why the young man had such ability, the two guards immediately made a decision, burst out all the remaining true qi in their bodies, and in exchange for a moment of body protection, they turned around and lifted the old man up despite the assassin's attack.

The old man didn't dare to drag, and tremblingly climbed onto the sword glowing red, the sword was less than a punch wide, but the old man was not tall, and he could stand on the sword body.

When they saw the old man standing on top of the long sword, the guards also instantly lost their momentum and were stabbed to the ground by the assassins, and then the assassins who were close jumped up and wanted to catch the old man, but they were in front of him, and watched the sword fly out with the old man.

Some of the Assassins reacted with their crossbows and tried to shoot the old man who was walking away with his sword, but the speed of the sword was so fast and slow that the arrows flew into the air, and they had to watch as the sword fell with the old man to the young man who had just drawn his sword.

"Surround them, and if one of them is let go, you will be asked."

There was a jumble of footsteps and commands.

The belated officers and soldiers slowly blocked the streets, and many of them saw the previous scene and speculated about which sect and sect had this immortal stunt. And the commander of the official army walked to Xu Ziling's side, looked at Xu Ziling with surprise, and said to the old man on the side: "The rescue of the lower officials is late, I hope your lord will forgive me." ”

The old man had a profound Qi cultivation kung fu, and he had only survived the catastrophe, but his face was not shocked, he glanced at the commander lightly, and said coldly: "It's not too late for Captain Zhang to come, just to catch all these assassins." ”

The lieutenant surnamed Zhang laughed twice and explained: "There were also some riots in the streets before, which attracted many patrol sergeants to pass, and the lower officials never thought that these assassins would dare to assassinate in the streets. ”

The old man snorted coldly, stopped talking, and turned his gaze to the assassin who was slowly forced back by the official army. The woman who rushed over checked whether the old man was injured or not, and kept thanking Xu Ziling.

Xu Ziling's face was pale, before the sword saved people, consuming a lot of his spirit and true qi, at this time, he only felt a dizziness in his brain, and when he saw that the dust had settled, he hurriedly breathed on the spot.

Captain Zhang watched as the assassins kept retreating, gradually reaching the point where there was no way out, and a smile slowly appeared on his face.

However, it didn't take long for him to stop laughing, only to see that the Assassins jumped directly into the Qinhuai River, where there happened to be several painting boats nearby, and the Assassins soon climbed onto those painting boats, and the painting boats also sailed to the opposite bank in an instant, apparently in a group with the Assassins.

"Fuck it, chase after it, don't let them escape." Captain Zhang scolded a few words, leaving a team of people to protect Xu Ziling and a few people, and then led the rest of the soldiers to find a bridge to the other side.

After the Assassins fled, order slowly returned to the streets, and some of the people leaned in and looked at the corpses in the streets and talked about them.

Suddenly, there were several shouts from the crowd watching the excitement: "Brother Xu, Brother Xu!" Then a man walked out of it, and it was Fang Jie, who had not been seen for a long time.

Fang Jie walked towards Xu Ziling, but was stopped by the soldiers. Xu Ziling, who was pranayama with his eyes closed, heard Fang Jie's voice, so he stopped and said to the old man next to him, "He is my friend." ”

The old man nodded and said, "Since he is a friend of Xu Gongzi, he is naturally trustworthy." ”

Hearing the old man's words, the soldier put down the weapon in his hand and no longer stopped Fang Jie.

Fang Jie knew the identity of the old man, but he ignored it, walked straight to Xu Ziling's side, saw that he was pale, and asked, "Are you okay?" ”

Xu Ziling shook his head: "It's just that the true qi is a little lacking, and I am not injured." ”

"Then I'll send you back to rest, there are so many officers and soldiers here, don't worry about the safety of Lord Wang." Fang Jie secretly raised his eyebrows and said to Xu Ziling.

Xu Ziling nodded, "It's okay." He turned to the old man and said, "Then I'll take my leave first." ”

Seeing that Xu Ziling was leaving, the old man hurriedly said in a straight voice: "Xu Gongzi's life-saving grace, the old man will never dare to forget it." In the future, if the son has something, just come to Wuyi Lane to find me. ”

Xu Ziling replied softly: "Lord Wang doesn't have to care, and saving you is not for grace, it's just a momentary brain fever and a reckless righteous move." ”

The old man said with a serious face: "No matter what the purpose of the son, the old man has to bear this kindness." Seeing that the old man was stubborn, Xu Ziling couldn't say anything, so he arched his hand and left with Fang Jie.

Watching Xu Ziling leave, the old man's cloudy eyes kept flashing with a strange look, he couldn't see through this young man, and he didn't understand why he would help.

The two walked on the road, Fang Jie's face was a little gloomy, and he didn't say a word after walking for a long time, but he heard Xu Ziling suddenly ask, "Where did you go before?" ”

The corners of Fang Jie's mouth twitched, and he said, "Are you embarrassed to say?" I didn't look at the girl on the street a few times, and in a blink of an eye you were gone, and you even went to save the life of the prefect, do you think this favor is so easy to take? Do you understand the stakes? ”

Xu Ziling said truthfully: "I only have a one-sided relationship with him, and I didn't want to save him with all my might at first, but at that time, I had some inexplicable feelings with Chixiao Sword, so I wanted to try how far I could control it, and saving the old man could only be regarded as unintentional." ”

"That's it, that's it. Let's go back first. Fang Jie sighed.

Xu Ziling nodded, he knew that Fang Jie was also anxious about him, and he also understood that getting involved in senseless disputes would bring serious consequences, but he couldn't explain it to Fang Jie thoroughly, many things were just fate, and they came naturally, it didn't matter if it was right or wrong, he didn't care about cause and effect.

After walking on the road for a long time, there were not many pedestrians on the street, and the two were walking, but they saw a woman walking on the opposite side, blocking their way, Xu Ziling was about to ask, but was pulled behind by Fang Jie.

Fang Jie looked at the woman and said, "It's all a misunderstanding. ”

The woman was dressed in a light yellow dress, with a slender posture, but her face was ordinary. Xu Ziling looked at her with a vague sense of familiarity.

The woman whispered, "You want to protect him?" I never thought you two would have such a relationship. The woman's voice is crisp and soothing, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.

Listening to the woman's voice, Xu Ziling was stunned for a moment and asked, "Is it Sister Yu?" ”

When the woman heard this, she said softly, "Yes, my good brother." ”

After listening to the conversation between the two, Fang Jie was a little confused: "You know each other?!" ”

Xu Ziling replied: "I have met Sister Yu a few times, and I also know that she is from the Gongsun family of Miao Jiang. ”

Fang Jie still didn't quite understand: "Then do you know who sent those assassins?" ”

Xu Ziling was stunned and asked, "It can't be the Gongsun family, right?" ”

It was Fang Jie's turn to be dumbfounded.

The woman became a little impatient and said, "Okay, I don't have time to listen to you here." My good brother has ruined the affairs of my grandson's family, but he has to pay the price. With that, the woman walked towards Xu Ziling.

Fang Jie greeted him, but the woman saw that he was going to stop, and with a blue light in her sleeve, she slapped it with a palm. Fang Jie knew that this woman was poisonous all over his body, so he didn't dare to be careless, so he immediately exuded his true qi to protect his body, blocked the blue light attacked by the woman, and then punched the woman's palm.

The moment the fists and palms were opposed, the woman turned her palms into fingers, and the cyan true qi burst out instantly, burning the prairie for a moment with the momentum of a spark, and breaking Fang Jie's fist with one finger, and the cyan true qi also entered Fang Jie's arm.

Fang Jie's right arm suddenly seemed to be pierced by thousands of needles, and the pain made him feel the urge to swing a knife and break his arm, so he hurriedly gritted the root of his teeth, and tried his best to resist the cyan true qi raging in his right arm.

Seeing that Fang Jie was enduring great pain to protect him, Xu Ziling said angrily: "Enough! ”

The woman kicked Fang Jie, who was already powerless to fight back, to the side, and said to Xu Ziling: "You will also be angry?" ”

Xu Ziling's face was extremely pale, and there was not much true qi left in his body, but he still pulled out the Chixiao Sword and pointed at the woman.

Seeing the sword in the young man's hand clearly, the woman's face, who had always remained gentle, suddenly changed, and instantly returned to its original state.

But seeing that she suddenly regained some of her outgoing momentum, she said softly: "It turned out to be the Chixiao Sword, no wonder you can save people with your strength with the sword, for the sake of this sword, I will spare you this time for the time being." ”

Xu Ziling didn't understand why she let herself go because of the Chixiao Sword, and when she saw that she had no intention of killing herself, she took the sword back. But seeing the woman slowly approaching him, she reached out and gently stroked his neck, feeling her gentle movements, Xu Ziling shuddered.

The woman said softly: "Although I want to let you go, but I am still a little unwilling, let my Qing'er teach you a lesson, give you a long memory, and worry less about idle things in the future." ”

Xu Ziling's face changed when he heard this, and he wanted to take a step back, but he felt a tingling pain in his neck, and then a strong sleepiness hit him, and he fell asleep.

Fang Jie saw Xu Ziling fall to the ground, thinking that the woman had fallen to the ground, and the ninja walked to Xu Ziling's side in pain, but heard the woman say: "Chixiao Sword has some origins with our clan, this time I will let him go, but he is a big deal for me, so I have to make him suffer." ”

After saying that, he slapped Fang Jie, withdrew the true qi that tortured him, and turned to leave.

After Gongsun Yu left, Fang Jie, whose arm had recovered, hurriedly picked up Xu Ziling and rushed back to the courtyard where he usually lived.

After walking for a long time, he arrived at the alley where the courtyard was located, but he heard a somewhat anxious woman's voice beside him: "This big brother, what's wrong with Brother Xiao Ling?" ”
