readx;? To the west of the dense forest, Yin Mo had just galloped past with a hundred city troops, and they didn't find any trace of Lu Yifan here, so they hurriedly searched in other directions. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Just after Yin Mo left with Pegasus, more than a dozen people quietly came out of the dense jungle, and the leader of these people was the King of Shengxi, Yan Zheng.

The dozen or so people who followed Yan Zheng tonight are all first-class masters, and they are all cronies in the Yan government, completely different from the guards who follow Yan Zheng on weekdays, although these people are dressed no different from ordinary guards tonight, but in fact, through the eyes and posture of these people, as long as a little careful person can see a clue, and find the difference between these masters and ordinary guards.

"Master, we have been waiting here for several hours, but we have never seen Lu Yifan's figure, will it be ......" The person who spoke was one of Yan Zheng's closest henchmen, named Zhou Xin. Zhou Xin is the person who follows Yan Zheng in and out of various places most frequently on weekdays, and the method he uses to hide his identity is to disguise himself as an ordinary coachman, and as long as Yan Zheng travels, the person driving the carriage must be Zhou Xin. Don't look at Zhou Nobunaga's appearance, but in fact, his cultivation is by no means under today's Xie Feng. And it is worth mentioning that the person who once secretly arranged a secret meeting between Qishan and Yanzheng was also this Zhou Xin.

In fact, when Yan Zheng said goodbye to the Lu family outside Jinling City early this morning, he found that there was no trace of Han Ling'er among the Lu family's group, and according to Yan Zheng's understanding of Lu Yifan, it was concluded that Lu Yifan would never give up on Han Ling'er and leave Jinling City alone. Therefore, he secretly sent Xie Feng to secretly follow Lu Yifan, and expected that Lu Yifan would inevitably wait for an opportunity to return to Jinling City to find Han Ling'er, and the truth was as he expected, so Yan Zheng came up with a divisive plan, and then ordered Xie Feng to secretly reveal Lu Yifan's whereabouts to Bai Qi, the commander of the Silver Guard, and let Bai Qi lead people to arrest him. And the reason why Yan Zheng wants to do this is to completely intensify the contradiction between the Emperor Yan Chong and Lu Haoqian, whether Lu Yifan dies in the hands of Bai Qi, or Bai Qi dies in the hands of Lu Yifan, in the end, it will force the Emperor and the Lu family into an irreconcilable stalemate, and then it will be the best time for Yan Zheng to recruit Lu Haoqian to join him in his rebellion.

In the final analysis, Yan Zheng has always refused to give up on the character of Lu Haoqian.

Hearing Zhou Xin's speculation, Yan Zheng shook his head casually: "I sent someone to investigate just now, and found that there was movement in the forest, and this king expected that Lu Yifan and Bai Qi had already fought each other! This Lu Yifan is not so simple, it is not something that he can catch in vain! If there is no help from Zhao Wuyang's Golden Guard and Yin Mo's city army, if only Bai Yinwei is used, it will be difficult to capture Lu Yifan alive!"

"Is this Lu Yifan really so powerful?" Zhou Xin looked incredulous, pouting and muttering.

"Lu Yifan is not very powerful in cultivation, maybe he is not as good as you!" Yan Zheng said with a smile, "But he always has the ability to survive in a desperate situation, this was the case with the Closed City Louzong back then, the later Northern Xinjiang battlefield, and the same is true of Jinling City today!"

"The purpose of you taking us here to wait here, master......"

"Just in case!" Without waiting for Zhou Xin's words to finish, Yan Zheng said lightly, "According to common sense, Zhao Wuyang's Golden Guard, Bai Qi's Silver Guard, and Yin Mo's city army, this is already a battle of thousands of people, plus Cheng Lao, who was loaned from the imperial city, such a formation should be easy to deal with Lu Yifan's few people!

"According to the Lord's will, we are now ......"

"Wait!" Yan Zheng said in a deep tone, "Wait for the news that Zhao Wuyang and they have captured Lu Yifan." Or wait for Lu Yifan to escape from the search and come here!"

"If Zhao Wuyang and they catch Lu Yifan, it goes without saying, but if Lu Yifan escapes by luck, what is the master going to do with him?" Zhou Xin looked at Yan Zheng with a puzzled expression, and when he said this, his voice couldn't help but lower a little, "Do you let him go or ......?"

"What do you say?" Yan Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he glanced back slightly at the dozen or so indifferent-looking masters standing behind him, the meaning of which was self-evident.

"The villain understands!" Zhou Xin didn't say anything more when he saw this, he just slowly pulled out the short knife pinned to his waist, and gently wiped the blade with a few cold flashes with his sleeve, and a touch of killing intent quietly appeared in his eyes looking in the direction of the dense forest.

......

"You ...... Let's go......"

In the dense forest, when Zhao Wuyang said this, the expression on his face was so helpless, so unwilling, and at the same time so bitter.

Zhao Wuyang knew in his heart that now that Cheng Lao was dead, his biggest reliance would be gone! Rao was that there were still hundreds of people behind him, but on Lu Yifan's side, there was Yan Shuang, who was in the Soul Emperor realm, and Liu Sandao, who was comparable to the Soul Emperor! Not to mention Lu Yifan and the group of leaders of the Holy Soul Academy behind him, just by saying that these two peak masters were going to this station, Zhao Wuyang had no chance of winning. If the Soul Emperor powerhouse was going to kill the group of ordinary soldiers behind him, it would just be a matter of the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves. No matter how strong he Zhao Wuyang is, he is only an eight-turn soul king, he can't even protect himself, how can he keep these brothers behind him? What's more, there are hundreds of students of the Holy Soul Academy after Yan Shuang and Liu Sandao, although their skills are not as good as Lu Yifan and others, but compared to these sergeants behind him, I am afraid that they are also better than them!

Hearing Zhao Wuyang let go, Lu Yifan's hanging heart finally let go, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his mouth, and said lightly: "Commander Zhao, this may be the best way for you and me at the moment!"

"Lu Yifan, although I let you go tonight, His Majesty the Emperor will never give up the pursuit of you, you robbed the royal bride and then killed and escaped from prison, these are not small crimes!" Although Zhao Wuyang chose to give up in desperation, he must not be convinced, "As long as His Majesty the Emperor gives an order, I, Zhao Wuyang, will definitely arrest you even if I chase you to the ends of the earth!"

"Waiting for you at any time!" Lu Yifan didn't bother to speak to him, but responded lightly, and then he turned his gaze to Yan Shuang, who had an indifferent face, and said with a wry smile, "Mr. Yan, this time I disappointed you again!"

"This is your choice, I won't say much as a teacher!" Yan Shuang always looked unhappy and annoyed, making people unable to figure out what he was thinking, "It's just that you may have to consider these fellow disciples of yours!" Yan Shuang also casually glanced at Chu Ding and the others, " Now that you let these sergeants go and don't kill them, they will definitely tell the truth about tonight's events to the Emperor when they go back, and when the Emperor returns, it will not be just you Lu Yifan alone, but everyone standing here, even each of their families!"

As soon as Yan Shuang's words came out, Lu Yifan's face immediately changed, and at this moment, the faces of Chu Ding and the others also became a little worried. After all, although the courage of the moment is happy, each of them does not live alone in the world, if they hurt their relatives and friends because of their recklessness, then the sin is too great.

"This ...... How is it good?" Lu Yifan asked with a frown, and then he turned his gaze to Zhao Wuyang and said slowly, "Tonight, in order to avoid indiscriminate killing of innocents, we each took a step back and gave each other a chance. I don't know if Commander Zhao is willing to give me another chance ...... fellow disciples."

"It depends on the meaning of His Majesty the Emperor!" Without waiting for Lu Yifan's words to fall, Zhao Wuyang immediately said, "As a minister of the Emperor, I will naturally know everything about Your Majesty! If you want me to hide everything from Your Majesty tonight, then you might as well kill me!"

"Do you think we won't dare?" Qin Qingyu said coldly, "Kill you to prevent future troubles......"

"It doesn't have to be like this!" Yan Shuang suddenly spoke, "Although you are at fault tonight, it is not a big mistake after all, even if the Emperor is concerned about the face of the Holy Soul Academy, he will open up to you, so as not to hurt the hearts of the younger generation! Even if you are to be held accountable, I think it will definitely not implicate your clansmen! Of course, it depends on what Commander Zhao says!" Saying that, Yan Shuang turned a pair of obscure eyes to Zhao Wuyang.

Under the attention of so many people, Zhao Wuyang hesitated for a moment before slowly saying in a very reluctant voice: "I will only tell you what you have done truthfully, and I will definitely not add fuel to the vinegar!"

"That's enough!" Lu Yifan nodded in response, "Commander Zhao knows that righteousness will not harm the innocent!

"I'll leave this matter to the teacher!" Yan Shuang said lightly, "It's just that before this matter is over, you have to hide for the time being, so as not to cause trouble!"

"That's easy to say!" Lu Jun said loudly, "If you don't give up, you can follow us to Xihuang Mountain to hide for a while, and wait for things to ......."

"Xihuang Mountain?" Before Lu Jun finished speaking, Yan Shuang's eyebrows were raised suddenly, and a strange glow flashed inadvertently in his originally silent eyes, and he looked straight at Lu Yifan, "Why do you want to go to Xihuang Mountain?"

"Ahem, cough ......" Before Lu Yifan could answer, Qin Qingyu, who was standing on the side, coughed a few times suddenly, and at the same time glanced lightly in the direction of Zhao Wuyang with his eyes, signaling Lu Yifan and the others not to say more.

"In this case, then it is so decided!" Seeing this, Chu Ding immediately took over the conversation, and said in a loud voice, "It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, then let's go!"

"It's okay!" Lu Yifan nodded happily, and then he arched his hand at Zhao Wuyang with a gloomy face again, and then led everyone towards the west of the dense forest, and after a while, the hundred or so people led by Lu Yifan completely disappeared from Zhao Wuyang's sight.

And from beginning to end, Zhao Wuyang didn't say a word, hundreds of people stood quietly in the dense forest, and let go of the Jinling felon, Lu Yifan!

......

"Master, it looks like someone is coming!"

"Yifan, be careful that there is a group of masters in front of you!"

Almost at the same time, Zhou Xin and Yan Shuang's voices sounded in the ears of Yan Zheng and Lu Yifan at the same time, and then Lu Yifan and his party had just stepped out of the dense forest, and they met Yan Zheng and more than a dozen masters led by him.

But Yan Zheng, who was originally proud, couldn't help but be stunned when he saw that Lu Yifan's side was gathering hundreds of people at this moment. And Lu Yifan, who was talking and laughing with Han Ling'er, Lu Jun and others, couldn't help but stop and stunned when he saw Yan Zheng and the dozen or so sword-glittering guards behind him.

At this moment, the distance between Lu Yifan and Yan Zheng was only a few meters, and the two looked at each other with embarrassed faces, and the two groups of people standing behind them were also frozen there without saying a word, both with a blank expression.

Zhou Xin, who was standing beside Yan Zheng, first swallowed a mouthful ......of saliva with an ugly face, and then he cautiously leaned into Yan Zheng's ear and whispered, "Master, how can Lu Yifan have so many people? And that middle-aged man's cultivation villain can't see through it at all! Do we still want to do it......"

"Haha......"

Before Zhou Xin's words fell, Yan Zheng suddenly laughed excitedly, and then he hurriedly raised his feet and walked quickly towards Lu Yifan, and at the same time, he waved his hand casually at the group of guards behind him who wanted to keep up, stopping his steps.

"Lu Gongzi, it's great to see that you're okay!" Yan Zheng didn't pay attention to Lu Yifan's surprise at all, and walked forward in two steps, but he looked around Lu Yifan carefully with concern in his eyes, as if he was checking Lu Yifan's injury, when he found that Lu Yifan was not injured, the smile on his face became more and more eager, and finally he simply grabbed Lu Yifan's arm, looking extremely intimate, "This king thought that he was late, and he almost missed a big thing! Now that he sees that you are fine, then the king is completely relieved!" Saying that, Yan Zheng waved his hand lightly at Zhou Xin and the others who were dazed, and then laughed loudly, "Put away your swords! This is the Lu Gongzi we want to rescue!"

"King Saint-West, you are ......"

"This king has just heard that Bai Yinwei has found your traces in the city, which really frightens this king's heart! So he hurriedly ordered a few good guards to run out of the city, intending to stop your pursuers here for you. This king thought that you had already escaped this forest, but he didn't want to meet you here......" Yan Zheng's words At this point, a look of doubt suddenly appeared on his face, and then he pretended to be puzzled and asked, "But didn't you leave Jinling City with Lord Lu in the morning, why did you turn back later?"

"Oh! I can't hide it, I'm going back to find Ling'er!" Saying that, Lu Yifan also gave way to Han Ling'er beside him, as if he was introducing him to Yan Zheng.

"Good, very good, excellent!" Yan Zheng's face was full of relief, and as he said that, he turned his eyes to Han Ling'er, and asked with a light smile, "Ling'er girl, do you remember this king?"

"Of course I remember!" If it weren't for the Shengxi King's repeated words in the Shengdong Palace, I am afraid that Ling'er would have been insulted by that Yan Ze a long time ago......" Han Ling'er said and bowed gratefully to Yan Zheng.

"Oh, no need to be polite!No need to be polite!" Yan Zheng stretched out his hand to signal Han Ling'er to get up, and after saying that, he raised his eyes and glanced at Chu Ding and the others in confusion, "They are ......"

"They are my fellow brothers of the Holy Soul Academy, and they heard that I was in trouble and came to the rescue!" Lu Yifan replied with a smile.

"It's really worthy of the son of the Lu family, and it's really a response!haha......" Yan Zheng was talking and laughing, and his eyebrows inadvertently showed a hint of contemplation, "The person who is chasing you ......"

"After fighting for a while, my brother killed Bai Qi and the old Soul Emperor who I didn't know, but in the end, the commander of the Golden Wei Zhao understood the righteousness, and in order to avoid killing and injuring innocent people, he was willing to take a step back with me, and simply let us go!" Lu Yifan said bluntly.

"Hiss!" Hearing this, Yan Zheng couldn't help but show surprise on his face, he never expected that a master like Cheng Lao would be killed, and he was secretly glad in his heart at the moment, fortunately he didn't make a reckless move just now.

"No matter what, you'll be safe!" Yan Zheng said thoughtfully.

"There is King Lao Shengxi who is worried, our Lu family really owes you too much!" Lu Yifan said with a guilty face.

"Hey, help people to the end, this king will definitely have no hesitation if he decides to help you!" Yan Zheng said in a straight voice, "Then you can leave quickly, lest Zhao Wuyang regret it." ”

"King Shengxi, I still have something I want to ask you for help!" Lu Yifan said with a wry smile, "I can't hide it, the father and daughter of the Sun family in the west of the city are kind to us, and Bai Qi was in the Sun family when he found us, I was afraid that the emperor would attack them because of this, so I ......"

"Don't worry! The Sun family is just an ordinary person, and this king will persuade him with kind words in front of the emperor, and he will not embarrass the Sun family and the people in the west of the city!" Yan Zheng happily agreed.

"In this case, this matter is up to the King of the Holy West!" Lu Jun thanked again and again with an excited face, "If the King of the Holy West can save Fluttershy's father and daughter, Lu Jun will be grateful for this life!"

"Haha...... Yan Zheng laughed loudly, and after that, he personally pulled Lu Yifan to the west, waved his hand to signal his subordinates to get out of the way, and then said with a sincere face, "This is a long way to the mountains, you must take care, and when you see Lord Lu, remember to say hello to this king!"

"Yes!" Lu Yifan nodded in agreement, and then said no more, and after bowing to the King of the Holy West again, he led everyone to walk quickly towards the southwest.

Yan Zheng kept smiling and silently watching Lu Yifan and his party drift away, and after Lu Yifan's figures completely disappeared from his sight, the smile on Yan Zheng's face gradually converged, and was replaced by a dignified color.

"Master, why did you change your mind temporarily and let Lu Yifan go?" Zhou Xin asked puzzled.

"If you had made a move just now, how sure would you have been that you would have killed them all?" Yan Zheng raised his eyebrows and asked with a sneer.

"This ......" was asked by Yan Zheng, and Zhou Xin and the others were speechless for a while.

"This king said before, Lu Yifan is just an inconsequential chess piece, and the purpose of killing him is just to get Lu Haoqian!" Yan Zheng said in a deep tone, and the corners of his mouth inadvertently showed a trace of an inexplicable smile, "But just now this king suddenly changed his mind, maybe this Lu Yifan is more valuable than his father Lu Haoqian!" Originally, I thought that this son was just a person who acted recklessly for the sake of women, but now it seems that this king underestimated him too much!"

"But if Lu Yifan doesn't die, the contradiction between the Lu family and the royal family will be difficult to reach an irreconcilable situation, so we ...... now."

"Lu Yifan?" King Shengxi sneered suddenly, and then he slowly turned around, his deep eyes looking straight into the depths of the dense forest, "Although there are many people in the forest, that group of wastes is actually much easier to deal with than Lu Yifan!"

"What does the master mean ......" Zhou Xin suddenly realized, and a bloodthirsty killing light appeared in his eyes again.

"Go, remember, you have to cut the grass to the roots, and you can't leave a single one!"

......
