Ruoshui listened to Taihao's words, and a warm current surged in his heart, and his eyes flashed with emotion. She lifted her lips lightly, and her voice was soft and firm: "Thank you for saying that you want to protect me, with you by my side, I have nothing to fear." ”

Tai Hao smiled slightly, his eyes were full of tenderness and firmness: "This is what I should do, no matter what difficulties I encounter, I will protect Xu Yuan and you." ”

Ruoshui gently bowed her head, and the emotion in her heart turned into a force, which made her muster up the courage to continue to ask: "You said that those cheats are not with you, so where are they?" ”

When Tai Hao heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and a trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes. He glanced at Ruoshui deeply and asked, "Ruoshui, what are you asking for?" The whereabouts of these cheats are related to the safety of the rivers and lakes, and they cannot be easily revealed. ”

Ruoshui was stunned for a moment, and then explained: "I don't want to explore any secrets, I'm just worried that those villains will find the secret and bring greater disasters to the rivers and lakes." If you trust me, just let me know, and maybe I can help you figure it out. ”

Tai Hao stared at Ruoshui, a trace of complicated emotions flashed in his eyes, and the doubts in his heart surged like a tide. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Ruoshui, this matter is very important, and the grievances and disputes involved are far beyond what you and I can imagine. For your safety, don't ask again. ”

Ruoshui saw that Taihao was still tight-lipped and didn't want to talk more, although he was unwilling in his heart, he also knew his worries and concerns. She nodded lightly and didn't ask any more questions, just silently accompanied Taihao and gave him silent support.

After breakfast, Tai Hao resolutely went to Wurong City Prison. There was only one thought in his heart, and that was to exchange gluttony for Xu Yuan. He knew that since the "Nine Sons of the Dragon" had captured Xu Yuan, they would definitely not let him go easily, but he also believed that as long as they had gluttony in hand, they would have bargaining chips.

However, when Taihao rushed to the gloomy prison, he learned an incredible news from a jailer. There was a hint of panic in the jailer's eyes, and his voice trembled slightly and told him: "Taihao Hero, in the early hours of this morning, the Wulu City Lord actually ordered the release of the glutton. ”

When Tai Hao heard this, his heart was like being struck by lightning, and a strong sense of uneasiness instantly surged into his heart. He couldn't help but clench his fists, and his heart was full of doubts. He had obviously told the city lord of Wulu in detail how to properly guard the gluttony and ensure that it would not escape, why did the city lord suddenly change his mind?

Tai Hao was very anxious in his heart, he knew the importance of gluttony, once it fell into the hands of the "Nine Sons of the Dragon", the consequences would be unimaginable. He didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately rushed to the Yamen of Wurong City, ready to ask the Wulu City Lord for an understanding.

When Tai Hao stepped into the yamen, the city lord of Wulu was sitting in the hall, looking leisurely and complacent. Tai Hao stepped forward and asked in a deep voice, "Wuluo City Lord, why did you want to release the gluttony?" ”

When the city lord of Wulu heard this, he was slightly stunned, and then his face showed a little helplessness. He sighed and explained, "Taihao Daxia, you don't know anything. The reason why this official ordered the release of gluttony was really out of helplessness. As you know, gluttony is a divine beast, and its power is not trivial. If it angered those of his brothers, wouldn't our Wurong City suffer a catastrophe? Moreover, whether gluttony has really committed something harmful to nature and reason, we have not yet found out. Therefore, for the sake of the tranquility of Wurong City and the safety of the people, this official can only make such a decision. ”

After listening to the explanation of the city lord of Wulu, Tai Hao was even more angry in his heart. He said coldly, "Wulu City Lord, as the Lord of Wurong City, how can you indulge criminals out of fear? Although he is the brother of the 'Nine Sons of the Dragon', he is not invincible. If you are truly concerned about the people, you should guard him as I have said, and not release him lightly. ”

The city lord of Wulu was dumbfounded by Tai Hao's words, he knew that he was not doing it right, but he was helpless. Seeing this, Taihao didn't say anything more, he knew that it was useless to say anything at this time.

Taihao could only return to the Xu Mansion, and as soon as he walked into the mansion, he saw that the housekeeper was already waiting here, with a solemn face. Taihao's heart moved, and he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How is it?" Have you found anything? ”

The housekeeper nodded, and his voice was low: "Taihao Daxia is really like a god, and those two silver needles are indeed coated with poison." This poison is not trivial, even if it is a person with strong martial arts, once he is hit, he will lose his skills in a short period of time and become like ordinary people. ”

When Tai Hao heard this, his brows tightened. He recalled the scene when Xu Yuan was arrested, and he couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart. He gritted his teeth and said, "No wonder Xu Yuan was captured by the 'Nine Sons of the Dragon' so easily. It turned out that someone secretly poisoned her, making her powerless to resist. ”

However, who would do this to Xu Yuan? Taihao fell into deep thought. Figures flashed in his mind, but they were eliminated one by one. At this time, he felt an invisible pressure enveloping his heart, making him almost breathless.

Just then, a soft footstep interrupted his thoughts. Ruoshui walked over with a smile, her eyes flashing with concern, and asked softly, "Taihao, you're back." Where did you go just now? ”

Tai Hao took a deep breath, looked at Ruoshui with a firm look, and said: "I haven't gone anywhere, Ruoshui, you must protect yourself in the mansion, I will immediately go outside the city to find the 'Nine Sons of the Dragon' and rescue Xu Yuan." ”

When Ruoshui heard this, a trace of worry flashed in her eyes, and she said softly: "But, didn't they make a request to exchange the cheats for Sister Xu?" ”

Tai Hao smiled slightly, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes: "How can the cheats be easily handed over to them?" Besides, they are not my opponents, and I have my own way to save Xu Yuan. ”

After Ruoshui heard this, a trace of firmness flashed in her eyes, and she said: "Since this is the case, I will accompany you to go, so that you can take care of it." ”

Tai Hao shook his head and said softly: "Ruoshui, you can stay in the mansion, you have no martial arts, if you go outside the city, it must be very dangerous, and I can deal with it myself." ”

Ruoshui was unrelenting, she bit her lower lip lightly, and her eyes flashed with determination: "Taihao, since you are going to take an adventure, how can I stay in the mansion alone?" Even if I can't help you, at least I can cheer you on by your side and take some of the pressure off for you. ”

Taihao looked at Ruoshui's firm eyes, and a warm current surged in his heart. He knew that Ruoshui genuinely cared about himself and did not want to leave himself alone to face danger. However, he knew better that the trip was dangerous and unpredictable, and he didn't want Ruoshui to be in danger. So, he persuaded again: "Ruoshui, be obedient, you can stay in the mansion, and I will come back as soon as possible." ”

Ruoshui refused to flinch, she held Taihao's hand tightly, and her eyes flashed with determination: "Taihao, if you insist on not letting me go, then I will wait for you here until you return safely." ”

Taihao looked at Ruoshui's firm eyes, and his heart was moved.

Tai Hao stepped on his horse and galloped with his whip, like a bolt of lightning piercing the sky of Wurong City. His figure quickly disappeared at the end of the city gate, leaving only a cloud of dust and smoke in the air. However, his whereabouts did not escape the eyes of many knights in the city.

These knights came from all over the world, some armed with long swords, some with bows and arrows, and they stopped to watch, their eyes shining with curiosity and awe. Among them, more than a dozen men followed, and although their steps were light, their eyes revealed a trace of cunning and ruthlessness.

These men knew that they were no match for Taihao. Taihao's martial arts are unfathomable, and they have long been rumored to be good stories in the rivers and lakes. Although they had murderous intent, they didn't dare to act rashly, so they could only follow Tai Hao cautiously, looking for an opportunity to make a move.

Taihao naturally also noticed the stalker behind him. He sneered in his heart, knowing that these people were killers sent by the Shaoling Sect. However, he only had the idea of rescuing Xu Yuan in his heart at the moment, and he didn't care about the following of these killers. He rushed out of the city with all his heart, hoping to find the "Nine Sons of the Dragon" as soon as possible and rescue Xu Yuan.

The scenery outside the city gradually came into view, and Taihao rode his horse and whipped straight to the dense forest area. The last time he met the "Nine Sons of the Dragon" was in this dense forest, and he believes that this time is no exception.

As the sound of horses' hooves approached, the atmosphere in the dense forest became more and more tense. Tai Hao took a deep breath and clenched the long sword in his hand. He knew that the next battle would be extremely fierce, but he was also fully prepared and determined to save Xu Yu unharmed.

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves in front of them was hurried, and the dust was flying, and three figures flashed in front of Taihao's horse like ghosts. Tai Hao's eyes were like torches, and he recognized these three at a glance as ghost leaves, ghost flocculents, and ghost stems, Tai Hao sneered and said, "It turns out that the three of you are also lurking here, and it is really ghostly." ”

Ghost Ye smiled, his eyes flashing with a sly light: "Taihao, we are here for you." Just now, he made a bet with Brother Prisoner Niu, saying that you would definitely come here today, but he still didn't believe it. It seems that I know you better. ”

Tai Hao sneered in his heart, but his face remained silent: "I'm here to find the 'Nine Sons of the Dragon', you little minions, don't be overwhelmed." Get the nine of them out! ”

Hearing this, the corners of Ghost Ye's mouth hooked up with a mocking arc: "Taihao, look back, which of the knights who followed behind you didn't come to you?" Fortunately, General Shaoling has an order, let us capture you alive, and we can't hurt your life, otherwise, you would have become a corpse a long time ago, where would you come here alive. ”

Tai Hao's eyes lit up, and he glanced at the knights behind him, but there was no fear in his heart. He said coldly: "It turns out that Shaoling still wants me to live, it's really a joke. If I am afraid of death, how can I come alone? ”

Oniba's face sank, and he was about to attack, when suddenly there was a dragon-like sound in the sky. Immediately after, the Nine Paths descended from the sky, like the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon descending to the mortal world. It is the "Nine Sons of the Dragon", they are majestic and overwhelming.

The prisoner cow stepped forward, his eyes were like knives, and he looked directly at Taihao: "Taihao, you don't have cheats, and you want to save your lady, this seems a little unreasonable." Do you think that you alone can compete with us knights? ”

When Tai Hao heard this, he laughed, and then turned over and dismounted, and said, "Prisoner Niu, you are wrong." I'm too good to act, and I never play cards according to common sense. Today, I want to save Xu Yuan, but also make you 'Nine Sons of the Dragon' pay the price!" ”

The prisoner cow glanced at Tai Hao, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a playful smile: "Tai Hao, you don't seem to know how to weigh the pros and cons." Don't you really want your flowery lady to live? ”

A trace of anger flashed in Tai Hao's eyes, and the green tendons of his hand clenching the long sword burst out, and he commanded sharply: "I repeat, where is she?" You let her go right now! ”

The prisoner cow shook his head, seemingly indifferent to Taihao's anger, he smiled leisurely: "Taihao, Taihao, you are still too naïve." How can I easily take back what I have said? If you really want to save her, just exchange your cheats for a few of your cheats. ”

At this moment, a rough cheer suddenly came from behind Tai Hao. An older swordsman, with a rugged face and long beard, apparently from a remote northern place. He held a large knife in his hand and shouted at the "Nine Sons of the Dragon": "Why do you guys talk so much nonsense! In my opinion, whoever catches him will take him back to receive the reward, where is there so much nonsense to talk about! ”

Hearing this, the prisoner cow raised his eyebrows, and a chill flashed in his eyes. A wicked smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and then he gave the kiss next to him a look. The kiss comprehended, and his body moved, turning into an afterimage, and rushed to the side of the swordsman.

I saw a palm swing out of the cheek kiss, and the palm wind was like a knife, instantly knocking the knife away a few feet away. The knifeman didn't even snort, and then fell to the ground, motionless. When everyone saw this, they were all shocked, and no one expected that the kiss would be so ruthless.

Seeing this, the other knights who came out with Taihao didn't dare to say more, and retreated to the side, only daring to watch the excitement from afar. They knew in their hearts that the "Nine Sons of the Dragon" in front of them was by no means an ordinary person, and they would lose their lives if they were not careful.

A hint of coldness flashed in the eyes of the imprisoned bull, and he slowly approached Tai Hao, his voice low and full of threat: "Tai Hao, do you really think that you alone can compete with our 'Nine Sons of the Dragon'?" Did you see that? These knights, they are all here to catch you, if we didn't deliberately let you live, you would have become their ghost under the knife. ”

Tai Hao sneered, his eyes firm and sharp: "Prisoner Niu, do you think that you 'Nine Sons of the Dragon' can cover the sky with one hand?" With their rabble, they still want to catch me? What a joke. Where is my wife? Hand her over! ”

The prisoner's face sank, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes: "Taihao, if you toast and don't eat and drink, then don't blame me for being polite." I'll ask you again, are you really reluctant to hand over the cheats? ”

Tai Hao did not flinch, he stood with his sword up, and his tone was firm: "The secret is not on me, even if it is, I will not hand it over to you scum." ”

A trace of fierceness flashed in the prisoner's eyes, and he sneered: "Since you are so stubborn, then don't blame me for being rude." You said the cheats are not on you, then tell me, where did you hide the cheats? ”

Tai Hao shook his head and said categorically: "I repeat, I won't give you the cheats!" ”

For a moment, the atmosphere suddenly became tense. The knights around them all held their breath and watched nervously at the fierce battle that was about to break out. And the confrontation between Taihao and the prison cow made people's hearts beat faster, as if even the air was frozen.
