Cao Qiudao, the sword saint under the sword, although he doesn't care much about the worldly things in the red dust, it doesn't mean that he doesn't understand the mundane things in the red dust. Under the current circumstances, the official liliang of Qi is no longer reliable. Therefore, Cao Qiudao simply used his influence to mobilize all the five hundred swordsmen in the Jixia Academy Palace to disperse near the stargazing platform for strict guarding. On the surface, the rhetoric is to prevent the Qin State from sending people to the disadvantage of the envoys of the Zhao State, but in essence, it is to deal with someone, Cao Qiudao knows, King Qi knows, and Tian Dan knows even more.

Although the swordsmen did not know it, they were all given strict orders. Within three days, no matter who is not from the Jixia Academy, as long as he approaches the observatory, he will be killed immediately.

Originally, it was a place for scholars and sages of the hundreds of schools of thought to teach knowledge. But now that Cao Qiudao gave an order, the entire school palace became like a battlefield. The scholars inside saw that the situation was not right, so they hurriedly moved out of the school palace, so as not to be miserable when something really happened. In this way, the atmosphere in the school palace is even more solemn. It's so heavily guarded that you don't even want to fly into it.

The first day passed in this tense atmosphere. Nothing happened, everything seemed so quiet. The next day, too, passed, and still nothing happened. On the third day, it was the agreed Zuihou day. The spirit of all the swordsmen under the sword is like a bowstring that has been stretched to the limit, and it is already tight. But the day passed, the first watch passed, the third watch passed, and seeing that there was another hour, the sky was about to brighten, but there was still no movement. After all, the swordsmen are not robots, and their spirits have been in a state of tension for a long time, and no one can stand it. Before you know it, you can't help but start slacking off.

The swordsmen didn't know. At this moment, Chen Sheng, who was dressed in black, even covered his mouth and nose with a black scarf, and only showed his two eyes, was standing on a small hill not far away, patiently waiting for the appointed time to come.

Under the bright moonlight, Chen Sheng could see very clearly the entire Jixia School Palace, which was built outside the west gate of Linzi, with continuous houses and a majestic atmosphere. Except for the lantern hanging at the main entrance, at this moment, the school palace is almost completely shrouded in deep darkness. But in the southeast corner of the school palace, there were a few faint fires. Chen Sheng knew that there was a stargazing platform.

This platform is three stories high, and at the top is a platform about 20 zhang wide, that is, about 60 square meters. True to its name, it is used for stargazing and divination. But now, Pang Xuan is hiding on the stargazing platform with He's Bi. In the palace that day, Chen Sheng could already see it clearly. This Zhao State's vertical and horizontal family, although he has a three-inch tongue that is not rotten, and his words are comparable to 100,000 male masters, but in terms of martial arts, he is not even as good as those who watch the gate for Xiangguo's Mansion. If you want to kill him yourself, it will be very easy. The only obstacle is the sword saint under the sword - Cao Qiudao.

Cao Qiudao is terrifying. His swordsmanship is so brilliant that he has reached the realm of supernatural transformation. Even if he went all out, Chen Sheng didn't have much confidence that he would be able to defeat this Sword Saint. However, whether it is victory or defeat, this itself is only secondary to Chen Sheng.

It's not that Chen Sheng doesn't know the consequences of defeat, or that Chen Sheng doesn't care about victory or defeat, but at this moment, in his consciousness, the concept of "victory or defeat" no longer exists. Chen Sheng thought about it wholeheartedly, and there was only one thought: war! Do your best and go all out to have a happy battle with Cao Qiudao! As for the result after the war, Chen Sheng didn't think much about it at all.

It's here, it's finally here! With the arrival of the appointed time, a little fire suddenly appeared in the Jixia School Palace shrouded in darkness. Not the light of a lantern candle, but the light of a building on fire! At first, the light was very faint. However, in a matter of moments, the fire quickly spread and grew! Immediately afterwards, the sound of gongs and drums, exclamations, running, and all kinds of noisy cries were released like a flash flood. The blazing fire reflected the night sky, and the clouds in the sky were also dyed a blood red full of catastrophic meaning!

Not an accident, but arson! The instigator behind the scenes is none other than King Qi Xiang, the monarch of the Great Qi Kingdom! In order to create an opportunity for Chen Sheng to fight with Cao Qiudao without worries, King Qi Xiang did not hesitate to set fire to the Jixia School Palace in order to achieve the purpose of diverting the tiger from the mountain. It's ruthless enough! Spicy enough! Enough! With such a scheming method, even Chen Sheng couldn't help but be surprised when he didn't know it in advance.

In any case, with the fire together, the opportunity has arrived. Without anyone reminding him, Chen Sheng immediately took action. He galloped at full speed, and it took about two or three minutes to approach from the small hill where he was hiding to the wall of the east gate of the palace, and directly entered the palace through the hidden gate, and went straight to the stargazing platform.

At this time, the fire in the school palace was already extremely fierce, and many buildings had even begun to collapse. The 500 swordsmen who stayed behind were busy fetching water to put out the fire, and many of the sentry posts were already in name only. Chen Sheng has never encountered the slightest obstacle along the way. He didn't stop, and he quickened his running speed, and it didn't take long for him to suddenly feel that he suddenly saw a high platform with a narrow shape and a wide bottom, standing majestically in front of him.

Slowing down and adjusting his breathing, Chen Sheng strode forward in great strides. However, before he could take a few steps, more than a dozen swordsmen had already poured out from all directions. Everyone unsheathed their swords, and the tip of the sword was aimed at Chen Sheng, who was dressed in black and approaching at the same time. Although the fire is enough to turn the tiger away from the mountain, you must know that others are not stupid. At this critical juncture, there was a sudden fire, and as long as the IQ is normal, everyone knows that there must be something strange in it. Therefore, even though eight or nine out of ten of the five hundred swordsmen have already run to put out the fire, there is no shortage of people who are still holding on to their posts.

There is no nonsense. Under such an extraordinary circumstance, a man in black suddenly ran out, and even a blind person could see that this guy was definitely not good. So there was no need to even open his mouth for interrogation, and the more than ten swordsmen who were under the sword automatically dispersed to form an encirclement, encircling Chen Shengtuan. Immediately after the long sword shook, or slashed or stabbed or cut or picked, more than a dozen long swords were killed together from the top and bottom, left and right, regardless of the direction and time, they all cooperated with each other seamlessly. It's a very sharp jianzhen that has both offense and defense!

The Yajiao gun is carried behind him, and he can get it with a backhand. However, Chen Sheng had no intention of using weapons. He snapped in a deep voice, and suddenly snatched up with lightning speed, grabbed the wrists of the two swordsmen directly opposite him with his grappling technique, and twisted it hard. The "click" sound of bones shattering was simply creepy to hear in the darkness of the night.
