Chapter Ninety-Nine: Eighteen Guards
The bright moon hangs high, three strange figures flash and move on the mountainside under the moonlight, the silver phoenix sword crosses the night sky from time to time The silver light vibrates the birds that stay at night, the alarm bell in the Tianmu Sect is loud, and there are guards rushing to report that "there are three people who have broken through".
The people in front of the mountain were awakened, and people with heads and faces came to the council hall one after another.
Dozens of white-clothed priests had already descended the mountain with swords, and they wanted to meet these three uninvited guests for a while.
The sword qi of the Silver Phoenix Sword was really powerful, and He Mengxi quickly broke through the gossip array he saw, and at this moment, suddenly a bright colored flower in the sky was dazzling.
"That's the warning flare of the Heavenly Lady Sect, we have already alarmed them, it seems that there will be a fierce battle!"
He Mengxi said to Ling Zixu and Feng Cheng, who had already jumped out of their respective mazes.
"Isn't there another array?" Ling Zixu looked up at the mountain.
"I remember, the Tiangang Beidou Formation is halfway up the mountain, look at this situation, the priests of the Tianmu Sect have already descended the mountain, so this formation is difficult to break!" He Mengxi was quite worried.
"The merits of the formation depend on the people who set up the formation, as well as the people in the formation, if the people in the formation and the people in the formation are masters, it is indeed difficult to deal with, but, as far as I know, to set up the Tiangang Beidou into an array, it takes ninety-eight people, are there so many masters in the Tianmu Sect?" Windy City Analysis.
He Mengxi was thoughtful, she searched her memory, and in her memory, there were as many as 1,000 people in the Tianmu Sect in the front mountain alone, and there were many more people in the back mountain than in the front mountain, so there must be no shortage of people.
The three of them were discussing when they suddenly saw torches lit up halfway up the mountain in front of them, and the torches gathered more and more, and in a short time, they illuminated the halfway up the mountain as if it were day.
Countless white-clad priests rushed out of the mountain, swords in hand blocking their way.
"Who is coming, and why is it going to the mountain?" A loud voice shouted.
The three of them looked at each other, no one answered, there was no way to answer, and they couldn't tell the truth.
Seeing that the three people on the opposite side silently did not answer, a mellow and sturdy white-robed priest shouted: "Senior Brother Lu Huan, don't talk nonsense, you have always been a trespasser, a dead end, what's polite!" ”
"I'm really impatient, take it!" A tall, thin man standing at the head gave an order, and several white-robed priests surrounded him.
Lu Huan? He Mengxi's heart moved, this name sounded familiar, and then looked at the person, thin cheeks, thick eyebrows and sword eyes, tall, flashing eyes passed over her from time to time, and there were doubts between her eyebrows.
Do they know?
The other white-clothed priests attacked Ling Zixu and Windy City one after another, but Lu Huan walked towards He Mengxi.
"Little junior sister, is that you?" Lu Huan frowned and looked at He Mengxi.
"You've mistaken someone!" He Mengxi tried his best to search for his memory, but he couldn't think of anything.
"I won't admit my mistake, I'm from Chen Guo, you are the princess of Chen Guo, how can I admit my mistake?" Lu Huan looked at He Mengxi very puzzled.
He Mengxi was shocked in his heart, he was careless, he had been here for so many years, there must be a lot of people who knew him on Tianmu Mountain, and he should be masked, in this way, it would be difficult to act.
"Okay, now that you've recognized me, why don't you get out of the way?" He Mengxi will calculate.
"Why did the princess go to the mountain, and what happened on the mountain, do you know? What is the purpose of the princess, what do you want to do, can you tell me, I was one of the princess's eighteen guards before, and I have never forgotten my duty, so no matter what the princess does, I will help! ”
His expression was solemn, and he said it seriously, He Mengxi almost believed it.
was hesitating, only to hear Lu Huan say again: "Princess, why is the Silver Phoenix Sword in your hand?" This sword can't be used by ordinary people, it is an artifact of Tianmu Mountain, mortals will be eaten back if they use it, mess up their minds, and die of madness, hurry up and hand it over to me, let me seal it! ”
He Mengxi looked at the sword in his hand, and then at Lu Huan, suspicious in his heart.
Suddenly, a voice shouted: "Little junior sister, don't believe him, he is the person of Sect Leader Hu, and he is not the same as us." ”
He Mengxi looked up, only to see a figure jumping in the air, and when he looked at it, it was Li Qian.
Li Qian volleyed directly behind Lu Huan, Lu Huan didn't look back, raised his sword to block, and with a "bang", both of them were shocked.
Li Qian took advantage of the situation and jumped and fell to He Mengxi's side.
He Mengxi said happily: "Second senior brother! ”
Lu Huan put away his sword and shouted angrily: "Li Qian, you are so bold!" ”
Li Qian rolled his eyes disdainfully: "You are not as bold as you, holding chicken feathers as an arrow, who do you think you are!" ”
"You!" Lu Huanqi's face changed, and he pointed his sword at Li Qian and shouted, "Are you going to do the opposite?" ”
Li Qian pouted: "It's against your Sect Master Hu, what's wrong, despicable villain, secretly hurting people, isn't this all your doing, otherwise how could Aunt Qinyu be plotted, what if you don't do it?" ”
Lu Huan paused: "Princess, don't believe him, I am one of your eighteen guards, I will always be your subordinate, always loyal to you, princess, you must believe me, don't listen to him!" ”
"Haha, eighteen guards? You are bullying the little junior sister to lose her memory, when the little junior sister left the mountain, it was Aunt Qinyu who made us loyal, you are good, treacherous, defected to Hu Chong, and also brutalized and slandered the other guards who remained, if I didn't have more eyes, I would also be poisoned by you, are you embarrassed to mention the things of the year? Li Qian was no longer calm, and his eyes were full of anger and injustice.
"Li Qian, you don't want to pretend to be pitiful in front of the princess, everything I do is to act on orders, those people have committed heinous crimes, I was ordered to kill, you and I are both from Chen Guo, and we also have the duty to protect the princess, why are you against me everywhere?"
"Whose order are you? Since he is the princess's guard, how can he obey others! ”
In response to Li Qian's questioning, Lu Huan was speechless for a while.
He Mengxi listened to what the two said, and quickly made a judgment: "Don't quarrel, Lu Huan, you said that you were acting on orders, but you were on the orders of the new emperor of Chen Guo?" ”
Lu Huan looked at her with a twisted eyebrow and nodded.
He Mengxi couldn't help sneering: "In this way, you are loyal to the new emperor, what do you have to do with me?" ”
"The new emperor is the princess's brother!" Lu Huan was puzzled.
"Hehe, brother? Is there a brother who wants to kill his sister? He Mengxi's eyes were cold.
"What did you say?" Lu Huan was surprised.
"That's it, in that case, now I'll give you a choice, do you want to be loyal to the new emperor or to me?"
"Princess, I, no, princess, how is this possible, how can the new emperor kill you, it is a misunderstanding, it must be a misunderstanding......" Lu Huan looked at a loss and in disbelief.
"Okay, I know your choice, if you want to be my enemy, then come on, I won't show mercy!" As he spoke, He Mengxi held the silver phoenix sword and slashed with the sword.
