I don't know when the rain stopped.

On the long dark street, two teams of people and horses are walking slowly.

Li Xuan took the lead on horseback, and Xu Lu followed by his side.

Qiu Zhenmu and Li Zhu, each led a team of Qianniu Guards and a team of Huiji Mansion Guards, followed behind.

In the faint corners of the long street around it, there are traces of Nanchang Mansion Guards everywhere.

"In the entire Wuzhou branch, Fang Yunxiu is the hall master, and Nu and Peng Yun are the deputy hall masters.

Before the prince arrived in Wuzhou, he arranged for Peng Yun and most of his subordinates to leave Wuzhou City and settle them in Yiwu, Jinhua, Wuyi and Lanxi counties.

Later, after Fang Yunxiu's death, Hall Master Zhang came to Wuzhou and immediately arranged all his men to Wuyi, led by Peng Yun to prepare for a counterattack on Dongyang."

Xu Lu whispered to Li Xuan about the situation of the Wuzhou branch.

Li Xuan nodded slightly, and asked casually, "How many people do they have, how many elites do they have, and can they capture Dongyang County?"

"There are less than forty truly elite soldiers, and most of the others are ordinary gangs; However, the last time Peng Yun sent a message, there are now more than 300 people under his command, and I hope that Hall Master Zhang can dispatch enough weapons to enter Wuyi in time, otherwise once the war starts, they will have a great disadvantage." When Xu Lu spoke, a trace of worry couldn't help but rise on her face.

This kind of behavior is not a bad thing, Li Xuan smiled faintly, and said: "More than forty elites, plus about three hundred people, if you march in a hurry and reach Dongyang County quickly, and there happens to be someone to help them open the city gate, then it will not be difficult to take Dongyang."

Speaking of this, Li Xuan couldn't help but be a little funny.

With only three or five hundred men, it is necessary to take a well-defended county seat.

This may sound like a joke, but it's true.

The south is different from the north, and there is no need to face the huge pressure from the northern steppe peoples, so the number of soldiers and soldiers in each city will not be too many.

Even in the entire land of Wuyue, the thirteen states, there is only one 1,200 troops from Zhichong Prefecture that can really be mobilized.

The soldiers and soldiers in each city are not only not too numerous, but even the combat effectiveness is not very good.

Therefore, with only three or five hundred people, it is not too difficult to break through the city gate and take the county government.

The real difficulty is how to defend the city.

In today's Dongyang City, there are almost no Tianyin cultists in the city.

Even if the Wuzhou branch takes Dongyang, it will not be able to incite the people.

When the time comes, the imperial army will counterattack, and they will only have to flee in embarrassment.

What's more, Li Xuan also put a team of men and horses on the march route of the Wuzhou branch in the west of Dongyang City, as long as Gu Tan and Kang Yao are not stupid and send troops to support, it is not a big problem to hold Dongyang.

Coupled with the pursuit of Yu Ze in the back, even if those people are not finished, it will be difficult to set off big waves.

Today's threat is still in Lanxi.

The humidity in the night breeze was very light, and Li Xuan looked away from Xu Lu and looked up.

After the rain, the sky was very dark and beautiful.

As soon as the crane elder died, the pressure on Li Xuan's head suddenly became much easier.

Why did Li Xuan go to Jinhua to inspect the autumn grain?

On the one hand, it is indeed the sum of various factors, but among them, the most important one cannot be ignored, which is the threat of Crane Lao.

The powerhouses of the Xuanxian Aftermath Realm appear around from time to time.

Even Li Xuan didn't know when he would show his flaws, and then someone would seize the opportunity and kill him with one blow.

And he has the protection of Qianniuwei by his side, but the other *** in Wuzhou does not have Qianniuwei to guard.

Once Crane Lao shifted his target, Li Xuan would immediately be in chaos.

Qianniuwei, nominally, came to Wuzhou to investigate the assassination of Wang Fanglan, and at most to protect Li Xuan's safety.

Even Li Xuan couldn't force these children of high-born families to protect these state and county officials in Wuzhou.

Therefore, Li Xuan left Wuzhou, and at the same time took away the attention of Crane Lao.

Now that Crane Lao has died at the hands of Li Xuan, although the risk still exists, it is not so big, and Li Xuan can mobilize more manpower in all aspects to make the layout.

Suddenly, Li Xuan seemed to remember something, turned her head to look at Xu Lu, and asked, "You said that Peng Yun is in Wuyi now, so who is the person in the state city, and who is the other person who appeared outside the Qian family with you that day, who is she?"

"He Qing'er, the slave only knows that her name is He Qing'er, she has never seen her before, and it is another line buried in Wuzhou in the sect."

After listening to Xu Lu's explanation, Li Xuan realized that in the entire Wuzhou, in addition to the black pawns, the subordinates of the Wuzhou Hall, and the people brought by Zhang Wanyu from Hangzhou, there was actually another line.

The existence of this line was only known to Zongtan and Fang Yunxiu, and Xu Lu and Peng Yun knew nothing before.

It wasn't until Fang Yunxiu's accident this time that Zhang Wanyu rushed from Hangzhou to support that He Qing'er showed up.

"Then it is estimated that now, Zhang Wanyu, should be staying with He Qing'er." Li Xuan deduced Zhang Wanyu's whereabouts in a blink of an eye.

Zhang Wanyu's strength is above Li Xuan, and before she had Crane Lao to help her escape, Li Xuan couldn't catch up at all.

However, Zhang Wanyu's position in Wuzhou can't escape Li Xuan's grasp at all, and what Li Xuan really cares about now is He Qing'er.

He Qing'er is just in the mood for love now, just a child, and she has only been in contact with the Tianyin Sect for a few years.

Behind her, there are still people.

After solving him, Li Xuan can lead his troops north with peace of mind.

The courtyard door opened, and Bai Lao stood at the door, standing respectfully, welcoming Li Xuan back to his home.

Li Xuan nodded at him, then looked at Qiu Zhenmu and Li Zhu and said, "Arrange for the brothers to rest early, everyone has tried their best to turn back tonight, you two will hand over the merit paperwork, and when the Wuzhou Tianyin Sect is completely eradicated, this king will go to the center to ask for merit for everyone."

"Thank you, Lord!" Qiu Zhenmu and the rest of the people couldn't help but show a hint of joy on their faces.

They and Li Xuan went south to Wuzhou, fighting for life and death all the way, trying to make meritorious contributions.

You don't have to go to the Western Regions, you don't have to go to Silla, you can build up your military exploits.

The other brothers in the Thousand Cow Guard didn't know how much they envied them.

Seeing the excitement on the faces of these people, Li Xuan waved his hand and asked them to rest, while he himself took Xu Lu towards the inner courtyard.

Li Xuan was very curious about the internal affairs of the Tianyin Sect.

While asking, he walked into the inner room.

"Lord, the bath water is ready." Hu Ling'er in a white breast-length embroidered skirt has a shallow blessed body.

Li Xuan turned his head to look at Xu Lu and said directly: "You also come together and tell this king, some of the things you did in the main altar of the Tianyin Sect back then, especially about the queen of the Tianyin Sect, how many times you have been in contact with her, how you feel about her, and what is your sensory evaluation of her in private in the Tianyin Sect......

"Whoa!"

In the bedroom, Li Xuan sat alone in the bathtub, feeling the flow of true Qi in her body.

On the bed, two figures overlapped.

Under the veil, it was hazy and unclear.

Li Xuan's attention was all in his body at this moment, deep in the inner dantian.

The three hundred and sixty drops of True Qi Water had already fused into one, and a slender black figure was wrapped in it.

The meridians in the body and the true qi fused into the various acupoints were quickly digested, quickly integrated into the true qi water droplets of the dantian, and then melted into the black slender figure.

I don't know how long it has been, and the true qi that has been fused into the meridians and various points in the body has been consumed.

Even the three hundred and sixty drops of True Qi Water were completely integrated into the black slender figure.

A hideous face, a long body, five claws, a slender dragon tail, two horns that soar into the sky, and a pair of majestic and cold eyes.

It turned out to be a black five-clawed dragon.

A black five-clawed dragon appeared in his dantian, but Li Xuan didn't let it out at all

Now I am moved.

The Jiujiang Xingmai Diagram itself is a kind of ancient inheritance exercise, but now there are only remnants left, and it is not easy to go up on the Xuanti.

But that's far from what Li Xuan needs to think about right now.

In an instant, Li Xuan opened his eyes directly, and with a thought, more than a dozen water droplets in the bath bucket jumped in an instant.

More than a dozen water droplets, suspended at a height of ten centimeters from the water, happened to be face to face with Li Xuan's eyes.

With a "bang", Li Xuan slowly raised her hand.

In the next moment, more than a dozen water droplets had already fused together in the blink of an eye, and then slowly elongated, corrected, and finally a nearly perfect arc-shaped curved blade was selected in front of his eyes.

With a flick of the fingers, the curved blade has already flown out directly, and in the continuous rotation, the curved blade is extremely light, dancing in amazement between the curtains and the gap between the tables and chairs.

Every time, I passed by every physical object dangerously, but I couldn't erase it at all.

After a long time.

The curved blade swayed and floated back in front of Li Xuan's eyes.

Li Xuan could clearly see the extremely sharp blade at the front end of the water-based curved blade, even if it was a blade made of water, he was just as sharp.

The rest is nothing more than adding speed.

Time and space, distance, height, gravity.

Li Xuan has countless means to increase its speed to the limit, and the rest is the direction and goal.

After breaking through the Xuanti, the most direct thing is that the water qi in the body has a deeper connection with the water mist and water droplets in the outside world.

I am also more sensitive and sensitive.

Just breaking through the realm, Li Xuan's strength is now more than twice as strong as before, and the lethality is even more amazingly terrifying.

When I closed my eyes again, the water in the entire tub began to spin on its own.

Li Xuan's right arm was erected violently, and more than a dozen spikes rushed to the sky at once, but they did not hurt Li Xuan in the slightest.

As soon as his mind moved, all these spikes had turned into flowing water in an instant, and they fell into the bathtub with a bang.

In the next moment, Li Xuan's spirit was all immersed in the inner dantian and merged into the black long dragon.

In an instant, countless white mist erupted directly from the black long dragon's body, and in the blink of an eye, it was already permeating this dantian.

But immediately after, countless mist had already fallen rapidly in the dantian, and finally condensed to form a bay of water lake, spreading out in the dantian.

In an instant, the black dragon had fallen into the depths of the dantian, constantly swimming and playing in the water.

The mind was withdrawn from the depths of the dantian, and in an instant, all of them converged into the sea of consciousness above their heads.

At this moment, a memory suddenly appeared in Li Xuan's mind.

In the bright moonlight, two figures appeared at the same time in front of a huge lake of water.

In the distance, the mountains are undulating, and the forests are deep.

This lake is still on the high mountains in the distance, on the top of the mountains.

This turned out to be a heavenly pool.

A huge celestial pool.
