East Palace.

"Your Highness, last night Yue Lingyao sent people to attack several properties from Anhou, killing fifteen people and wounding dozens of people."

Tong Zhuo came to Lijingyao's dormitory early in the morning and reported what happened last night truthfully.

"What?!"

After listening to this, Li Jingyao's eyes couldn't help but widen.

"How did he cope?! Have you already fought with Yue Lingyao?! ”

Immediately afterwards, Li Jingzhen asked nervously.

"After Anhou received the news, he did go to Yue Lingyao in person, but the two sides did not make a move."

"However, the two have agreed that they will compete in the purple maple forest outside the city this afternoon! Spread throughout the capital! ”

"It seems that there will be a battle between them, and life and death are unpredictable!"

Tong Zhuo said with a solemn face.

"He still didn't do what Hongu instructed!"

"How can Yue Lingyao be comparable to ordinary people in the rivers and lakes?! Even if his cultivation is high, I'm afraid he has no chance of winning! ”

Li Jingzhen frowned and said with a solemn face.

"Do you want to find a way to stop them? Can you stop it by informing Your Majesty about this? ”

Tong Zhuo asked hesitantly.

"That's it, with the cultivation realm and style of the two of them, if they have already decided, who can stop them?"

"This battle is inevitable."

Li Jingzhen shook her head with a wry smile, and said helplessly.

She understands that once she decides something, she will not change it no matter what.

As a disciple of the Lingyao Sword Sect, she should have stood on the side of the Lingyao Sword Sect, but at this time, she hoped that Li Wuji could become the ultimate winner.

Although behind Yue Lingyao was the entire Lingyao Sword Sect, for her, one Liwuji was worth ten Lingyao Sword Sects.

"Send someone to the Purple Maple Forest, no matter what the result is, send the news back as soon as possible."

Tong Zhuo bowed his hand and said in a deep voice.

"No, you go in person!"

"If Wuji loses, no matter what you think, you have to save his life!"

Li Jingzhen shook her head and said with determination.

"Yes!"

Tong Zhuo nodded heavily, turned around and walked away quickly.

Li Jingzhen sighed, slowly came to the door of the hall, looked at the direction of the purple maple forest outside the city, frowned, and his face was full of worry.

…

Yan Yuwei camp.

"General, it has been confirmed that it is correct, Anhou and Yue Lingyao are indeed incompatible, and there will be a battle in the Purple Maple Forest today!"

"I guess I'm out of the city by now."

An adjutant general appeared respectfully in front of Lan Zhan and said with his hands arched.

"Lingyao Sword Sect!"

"If you don't come early or late, you just come out at this time!"

Lan Zhan gritted his teeth and said a little unwillingly.

"This matter has been spread in the capital, but almost everyone is on the side of Li'anhou, hoping that Li'anhou can become the winner, and many people have gone out of the city to the Purple Maple Forest, all want to witness this epic battle."

The adjutant general hesitated for a moment and added.

"Two tigers compete, even if there is a winner, I am afraid it will be a miserable victory!"

Lan Zhan frowned and said thoughtfully.

"Who does the general think will win?"

The adjutant couldn't help but ask.

"Of course, General Ben hopes that Li'anhou can win!"

Lan Zhan said without thinking.

"The general also supports Li'anhou?"

The adjutant general was stunned for a moment and asked with some surprise.

"No!"

"I want to kill him with my own hands to avenge my father-in-law! I only have a chance if he wins, otherwise..."

Lan Zhan frowned and said contemplatively.

Perhaps, Li Wuji, who was seriously injured, was the best time for him to make a move.

"Send someone to the Purple Maple Forest secretly, I want to know the result as soon as possible!"

Lan Zhan pondered for a moment and said with a solemn face.

"Yes!"

The adjutant respectfully agreed, and immediately went to make arrangements.

Lan Zhan's brows furrowed, he stood in place for a long time without moving, and his mind had already flown outside the city.

…

Outside the city.

Purple maple forest.

In the middle of a meadow, a black carriage was parked, and the horses were bowing their heads and nibbling with relish, not knowing that a once-in-a-century battle was about to be staged here.

The surrounding maple forest was eerily quiet, with only the sound of the wind and the rustle of leaves swaying.

After a long time, there was a sound from the top of the maple forest, and then a cyan figure stepped on the leaves, landing steadily on the grass, holding a white jade sword in his hand.

Yue Lingyao!

"I'm not late, am I?"

Yue Lingyao paced a few steps, looked at the carriage covered by the brocade curtain, and asked slowly.

"It's not too soon, it's not too late, it's just right."

Immediately after, the sound of Li Wuji came from the carriage, smooth and calm.

"I didn't expect Childe to really dare to come to the appointment alone."

Yue Lingyao pursed her lips and said jokingly.

"Master Yue, is this questioning my personality?"

Li Wuji sneered and asked lightly.

"No, I just think that there may not be someone to collect the corpse for you for a while, in this wilderness, there will inevitably be some birds and beasts, and it is not good to have no corpse at that time."

Yue Lingyao shook her head and said jokingly.

"If you die, I will definitely keep your whole body and send it back to the Lingyao Sword Sect safely."

Li Wuji said the same, his words full of confidence.

Listening to Li Wuji's words, Yue Lingyao couldn't help but squint her eyes.

"Don't talk nonsense, since I'm going to the appointment, let's make a quick decision, while it's still early, I can still leave to rush back to the sect."

Yue Lingyao said coldly, her eyes were already full of battle intent.

Li Wuji didn't speak, only to see the brocade curtain opened, and the person slowly walked out of the carriage, holding the sandalwood box in his arms that he would only hold in his hand at a critical moment.

With the appearance of Li Wuji, Yue Lingyao's gaze was quickly attracted by the sandalwood box, and she had even felt the repeated killing intent coming out of the box!

Li Wuji was also looking at the white jade sword in Yue Lingyao's hand, his face as calm as water.

"Let's make a move!"

Yue Lingyao raised his hand and pointed at Wuji, and said confidently, as if he couldn't wait.

"You'd better go first."

"If I strike, you won't have a chance to draw your sword again!"

Li Wuji stood on the wheel, shook his head with a smile, and said with great confidence.

"Your mouth is not angry, but also very hard!"

"Okay, in that case, then I'll let you know what is outside the sky!"

As soon as the words fell, I saw Yue Lingyao's toes flying a little faster to the ground, rushing towards Li Wuji like lightning, and attacking the door of Li Wuji with one palm!

Li Wuji stood on top of the wheel, his steps were slightly wrong, his waist sank, and he also attacked with one palm, facing Yue Lingyao's attack!

There was a loud bang, and I felt that the air currents around me began to distort! Immediately afterwards, he saw Yue Lingyao turn over, swept away, and couldn't help but take half a step back!

And Li Wuji stood on the wheel but didn't move, but the whole body began to shake violently!

The shaking wheels startled the grazing horses, neighed, and were about to turn around and flee, but they couldn't move at all under the four kicks!

The first trick is a temptation, but the results have exceeded the expectations of both parties!

Immediately after, I saw Yue Lingyao dispatch again, and with a sword roar, the white jade sword was already out of its sheath, and it rushed towards Li Wuji's throat quickly!

The trembling blade seemed to tear through the air in an instant!

Li Wuji narrowed his eyes, stood the sword box at his feet, and touched the mechanism with his right hand, and the sword box opened in response!

After a dazzling sword light flashed, the Heavenly Punishment Sword was already unsheathed, and with a dragon roar, it swept off the carriage like lightning and rushed straight towards Yue Lingyao!

The sound of gold and iron resonating sounded instantly, sparks flew everywhere, and the two of them had already connected dozens of swords in an instant!

Between the two of you, you and I went back and forth, shooting faster and faster, flying up and down in this forest, the sword qi was rampant, I don't know how many branches and leaves were cut off, and the maple leaves were scattered with the wind!

After a long time, after two sword lights, one gold and one silver, flashed, the two couldn't help but dodge back, and after landing, they each took three steps back!

One step is not more, one step is not less!

Looks evenly matched!

However, Yue Lingshan's face was obviously no longer able to hold back, because the blade of the white jade sword in her hand was already covered with gaps, and it had already become a broken sword!

"Sword of the Son of Heaven?!"

Yue Lingshan forcibly calmed down the restless true qi in her body, stared at the Heavenly Punishment Sword in Li Wuji's hand, gritted her teeth and said a word, her face was flushed, and a trace of blood had overflowed from the corner of her mouth.

On the other hand, although his cheeks were still pale, his right hand holding the sword couldn't help but shake constantly, and the tiger's mouth was already cracked!

I have to say that Yue Lingyao is the number one master he has encountered since escaping from the Heavenly Prison!

Sure enough, it lives up to its name...
