Chapter Seventy-One: The Day of the Duel
While retreating, Shen Chengping's body protection qi instinctively poured out, and a thick layer of protection was laid around his body, Shen Chengping's body protection qi fused with countless peerless learning, hard as a rock, flexible like flowing water, these embroidery needles were sent out in a machine, extremely fast, and came suddenly, but they were all blocked by Shen Chengping three feet in front of him.
It's just that at the moment when he dealt with these hidden weapons wholeheartedly, Shen Chengping's spirit that was originally firmly locked on Gongsun Lan also relaxed for a moment, and Gongsun Lan immediately used light skills at full speed to stay away from Shen Chengping, and when Shen Chengping turned around to look for Gongsun Lan's figure, he found that she had disappeared without a trace and disappeared in the vast moonlight.
"Sure enough, it was a good decision, and after releasing the hidden weapon, he didn't look at the result at all, and just turned around and fled." Shen Chengping praised in his heart, but he didn't continue to chase and look for it, with Gongsun Lan's ability, most of them would not have any results, but Shen Chengping believed that the future would be long, and Ren Gongsun Lan would have seventy-two changes, and he would not want to escape from the palm of his hand.
Compared with Gongsun Lan's matter, the duel between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Fuxue is now Shen Chengping's top priority, Ye Gucheng chose the location of the duel in the Forbidden City, in fact, he has another purpose, but his plan similar to the original plot can't hide from Shen Chengping, who has a heart, and he can't escape the eyes of the shrewd Lu Xiaofeng.
The emperor promised Ye Gucheng to let him duel with Ximen Fuxue at the top of the Forbidden City, so naturally he would not break the contract, and he could only keep those ordinary people in the rivers and lakes out of the Forbidden Palace, really like Lu Xiaofeng, Guan Yutian, Helian Ba, Yan Maniac, Dugu Yihe and other masters, one or two are okay, when they appear at the same time, it is impossible for the masters of Ouchi to stop them all outside.
Because of this, although there were not too many people watching the battle at the top of the Forbidden City that night, they were all real masters of the famous side, so that the Ouchi guards in the palace were all like facing a great enemy, and they were dispatched one after another, for fear that something would go wrong, and the emperor even asked Zhu Wuzhi to lead his Ouchi agents to also be at the decisive battle site just in case, and at the same time left Cao Zhengchun, the governor of the East Factory, and Liu Jin, the governor of the West Factory, to guard together.
The emperor is now in his sixties and has little energy, so after cultivating the 'immortal method' taught to him by the national teacher in the Heart Cultivation Hall for a while, he is ready to take the 'Immortal Pill' to rest, but at this time, there is one more person in the Heart Cultivation Palace, and this person is Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City!
"Ye Gucheng, why don't you go to the duel, why did you appear here!?" The emperor looked at Ye Gucheng who suddenly appeared and said in a deep voice, although he was obsessed with immortality, but the instinct formed by manipulating power techniques over the years made him feel that something was wrong, and Cao Zhengchun also stepped forward and shouted: "Bold, Ye Gucheng, you broke into the palace without being summoned, what kind of crime should you be guilty of!" ”
"Hmph, dying man!" With a few faint words, several cold lights suddenly flashed in the hall, and Cao Zhengchun and Liu Jin, who were protecting the emperor, were suddenly devoured by thunder, although the two of them have practiced martial arts for decades, especially Cao Zhengchun, the Tiangang boy who has been practicing for fifty years is extremely powerful, with his innate late stage skills, there are few opponents in the world, but in the end, it is a whole big realm worse than Ye Gucheng and other peerless swordsmen, under Ye Gucheng's full sword, one died and one was injured.
"I didn't expect you to be able to withstand my sword without dying, it seems that your fifty years of kung fu have not been practiced in vain!" Ye Gucheng glanced at Cao Zhengchun with a little surprise, but he didn't continue to pay attention to him and Liu Jin, who was already dead, stepped over Cao Zhengchun who fell to the ground, paced towards the emperor, and said at the same time: "It seems that your minions are not very useful!" ”
At this time, Ye Gucheng slashed backwards suddenly, flying a hidden weapon flying towards the back of his head, and then another person suddenly appeared in the hall, it was Lu Xiaofeng who came in a hurry.
"You shouldn't have come, I don't have to, but unfortunately, we're all here!" Lu Xiaofeng said slowly to Ye Gucheng.
"It's a pity!"
"It's a pity, we're friends!"
"It's a pity that what I'm saying is that it's Lu Xiaofeng, even if it's ten hundred, I'll kill it today!" Ye Gucheng's eyes were full of persistence.
At this time, several figures appeared outside the hall, it was Wei Ziyun and Zhu Ignorance, the commanders of the inner guards, and many inner guards, seeing these people, Ye Gucheng didn't dare to delay, no longer paid attention to Lu Xiaofeng, and stabbed towards the emperor with a sword!
Seeing this, Lu Xiaofeng hurriedly wanted to step forward to stop him, but at this time, with a voice of "Thief, you dare!" Zhu Wuzhi also jumped out from Wei Ziyun's side, chased after Lu Xiaofeng, and grabbed Ye Gucheng with one claw, but at the same time, it blocked Lu Xiaofeng's opportunity to block Ye Gucheng's sword!
If it goes on like this, Ye Gucheng may be caught by Zhu Wuzhi, but the emperor will probably not escape the crisis of being stabbed by Ye Gucheng's sword, and at this time, a figure suddenly flashed from the side, and the sudden appearance of the sword spine directly blocked Ye Gucheng's sword edge, but it was found that the opponent of the competition was not Ye Gucheng, and as a result, the Ximen Blowing Snow that came in a hurry!
"Bang!" Ye Gucheng's sword was blocked by Ximen Blowing Snow, and then Zhu ignored the claw and grabbed Ye Gucheng's shoulder, instantly restraining Ye Gucheng's surrounding acupoints.
"Your Majesty is fine!" Wei Ziyun, who had just arrived here at this time, ran to the emperor's side and said, "The incompetence of his subordinates has disturbed Your Majesty by Ye Gucheng, and I ask Your Majesty for forgiveness!" ”
"Hmph, what the hell are you doing!" After walking around the ghost gate, the emperor was frightened, and his huge fear made him even more angry, glared at Wei Ziyun, and said loudly: "Come on, bring him down for me!" ”
"Your Majesty, please slow down!" Seeing that Wei Ziyun was about to be disposed of, Lu Xiaofeng hurriedly said: "Ye Gucheng has a careful plan for this assassination, and it is understandable that Commander Wei did not notice it for a while, and I hope that Your Majesty will deal with him lightly!" ”
"Your name is Lu Xiaofeng?" The emperor glanced at Lu Xiaofeng and asked.
"It's the grass people!" Lu Xiaofeng said directly.
"You have seen through Ye Gucheng's plan, and you have a meritorious role in saving the driver, if you have any requirements, I will try my best to meet them, but if you want to intercede for him, you have to use this credit to offset it!" The emperor said directly.
If it was other people, even if they were affectionate, they would hesitate a little at this time, but Lu Xiaofeng agreed without hesitation: "No problem, I am willing to offset it with my own merits, please Your Majesty bypass Wei Ziyun this time!" ”
"Okay, since that's the case, I'll spare Wei Ziyun this time!" The emperor didn't really want Wei Ziyun to die, after all, if he could become the commander of the inner guard, he was all the emperor's cronies, and it was not so easy to find a replacement, so he just wanted to give Wei Ziyun a warning in anger, and now that Lu Xiaofeng pleaded, he agreed to it.
It's just that at this time, another accident suddenly appeared.
