Chapter 190: Life and Death Are Hard to Choose
It was a bronze ring, the style was very ordinary, and it looked like the most common copper ring. However, it is so ordinary that even ordinary people in Kyoto City would not use it as jewelry.
Beigong Yan has only seen two people wearing an ordinary copper ring as jewelry in her life. One is Shi Huaichuan, the peerless genius who killed the Quartet with a Qingshao sword at the Lanchun Conference thirty years ago, and the other is naturally the one she has seen in the Xiandu Palace, who destroyed her and the Beigong family's overall plan, made her son be demoted to a commoner, and made her finally fall into such a situation.
She was so impressed by both father and son that she was impressed by the brass ring they wore on their hands. When the bronze ring under the light flashed in front of her, the extremely similar faces of the Shi family's father and son flashed in her mind for the first time.
Shi Zhiyi had just taken over the stack of books, and suddenly found that a cold light flashed in front of him, and a true yuan as thin as a cicada's wings flew in front of him.
After discovering that the Daoist Master of Fengtian Dao was the former imperial concubine Beigong Yan, Shi Zhiyi's heart had actually been vigilant, but now that the two had just reached a cooperation, he didn't expect the other party to suddenly attack at this time.
In a hurry, Shi Zhiyi only had time to lean back, and at the same time, with a stroke of his left hand, he put the materials he had just received into the bronze ring space.
That true yuan flew past the tip of his nose, splitting the grimace mask on Shi Zhiyi's face in two, revealing his original fair and delicate face.
"Shi Zhiyi! it's really you!" As soon as Beigong Yan saw Shi Zhiyi's face, she suddenly erupted like an angry female leopard, her five fingers were like hooks, and several true elements were wrapped around Shi Zhiyi like vines.
Beigong Yan was born in the Beigong family, one of the eight great families, and is also the pearl of Beigong Yixiao, the head of the contemporary Beigong family, so she will not lack cultivation resources since she was a child. Although she is not yet fifty years old, her cultivation has also reached the peak of the hall, and she is only one step away from entering the sainthood. Of course, it can be said that it is even more difficult to take this step, and talent, effort and resources are indispensable.
Although Shi Zhiyi has had the experience of facing martial artists in the realm of ascending to the hall many times, he is either like Lu Pengxiang, whose strength has not yet recovered, or like Wang Hao, who was seriously injured by the strange beast he brought by himself by chance, and Shi Zhiyi's real strength is actually not enough to face even a martial artist who has entered the hall head-on.
Therefore, in the face of Beigong Yan's shot, Shi Zhiyi did not hesitate, used his legs to exert force, smashed through the wall with his strong back, and used the smoke and dust stirred up by the moment the wall collapsed to exert his body technique to the limit, and turned around and ran.
Of course, Shi Zhiyi's ability to get this precious opportunity to escape is not unrelated to Beigong Yan's lack of experience in being in a high position for many years. As a noble concubine, she naturally does not practice these things on weekdays, so she has the realm of reaching the pinnacle, but she has no combat experience to match. If he were to change someone, with a deliberate calculation or no intention, I am afraid that Shi Zhiyi would be severely injured or killed with one move, and he would not be given a chance to escape at all.
Beigong Yan missed the blow, only to feel the anger in her heart, and followed Shi Zhiyi's figure and drilled out of the hole that was broken in the wall. At this time, she no longer thought about any plans at all, didn't think about how to deal with Yu Zhongcheng, and didn't think about how to kill Yu Zhongqian, the only thought in her heart was to break the body of this hateful kid who had harmed her and her son to this point!
At this time, Shi Zhiyi had already crossed the low wall and was about to run into the distance. His body technique has the strengths of both the Shi family and the Da Xi family, and once he launches it with all his strength, his speed is even far greater than that of ordinary Cold Window Peak Realm martial artists.
It's just that what is chasing behind him is not the peak of the cold window, but a peak martial artist from the Eight Great Families. Although Beigong Yan has a little experience in confronting people, her realm of reaching the peak of the hall is real, without the slightest moisture. No matter how desperately Shi Zhiyi worked in front of him, Beigong Yan was able to closely chase after him for a distance of about four or five zhang, and this distance still had a tendency to keep getting closer.
The place where they are located is a Taoist temple of great scale. As the highest peak within a thousand miles of Kyoto, this Taoist temple located on the top of Mt. Sukayama is extremely fragrant, so the scale of its construction is extremely impressive. In addition to the three main halls that are more than ten zhang high, there are countless other side halls and side rooms. Shi Zhiyi used these dense buildings to constantly change direction in an attempt to widen the distance between him and Beigong Yan.
It's just that it backfired, and the energy that burst out of Beigong Yan, who was bent on revenge, was equally terrifying, Shi Zhiyi tried his best, Beigong Yan always followed him, and if Shi Zhiyi hadn't turned in time several times, he would definitely have been injured under the true yuan sent by Beigong Yan.
Shi Zhiyi was extremely unfamiliar with the environment here, and under heavy pressure, he ran in a panic. After changing direction twenty or thirty times in a row, he couldn't tell the difference between east and west, north and south, and just randomly dodged the attacks sent out by Beigong Yan.
The commotion between the two was very great, but the Taoist temple was unusually quiet, and no one came out to see what was going on.
After another sharp turn, Shi Zhiyi's front suddenly opened up. It turned out that he had unconsciously run out of the scope of this Taoist temple. In this direction of the Taoist temple, there is a cliff, so there is no fence, only a few signs on the lawn that say "Cliff is dangerous, please do not approach". However, Shi Zhiyi, who was bent on running for his life, how could he be divided to see what words were written on the sign at this time!
Beigong Yan's figure appeared behind him again, this time, without the obstruction of the building, the crescent-shaped true yuan emitted by Beigong Yan hit Shi Zhiyi's back heavily. Fortunately, in the pursuit just now, Beigong Yan spent a lot of physical strength and true yuan, so the power of this blow has decreased, coupled with the protection of Shi Zhiyi's barbarian king's armor, Shi Zhiyi's corpse was not allowed to be on the spot.
A mouthful of blood spurted out, but the speed under Shi Zhiyi's feet did not decrease at all, but instead followed the impact of the true yuan and rushed forward, jumping several feet away again like an arrow from the string.
It was only at this time that Shi Zhiyi suddenly found that his feet were empty, and his body fell straight down, and he noticed that the leap he had just made had left the top of Qixia Mountain and jumped directly off the cliff thousands of zhang high!
Falling from this height, even if Shi Zhiyi trained the Barbarian King's trick to the realm of power shaping the golden body, he would fall into a puddle of flesh!
