The curtain in the imperial city has fallen, and the curtain on the Bei'an City Inn has also fallen, but there are still many tails that have not been cleaned up in this incident.

When Lu Zhi escaped from Cao Zhengchun's hands, he immediately galloped towards the position agreed with Hai Yueqing and Hai Mingxin.

But not long after he walked out of Bei'an City, he encountered a roadblocker.

Dawn breaks and the night dissipates, but the sky and the earth are still filled with darkness.

In the middle of the field, a figure wearing a dark red brocade robe and a high hat stood on the field.

If an ordinary person was here, Lu Zhi wouldn't care at all, but the person in front of him was obviously not an ordinary person.

"Who are you?"

"Waiting for your people!" Zhao Gao slowly turned around, revealing a pale face.

The pupils in Lu Zhi's eyes shrank, and his expression became solemn.

"Why are you waiting for me?"

"I want to take you somewhere."

Zhao Gao said lightly.

The matter of Bei'an City is over, but the matter of their net has just begun.

Within Kyoto, among the four major moats, there are a large number of warriors from the southeastern islands, ranging from the top powerhouses of the three innate realms to the high-grade warriors above the seventh rank, the number is close to 1,000.

Some of these people made trouble in the four major moats, and some attacked the imperial city in Kyoto, so many warriors gathered, Zhao Gao naturally would not return empty-handed.

The target of their net is these people, and anyone from the southeastern islands is their target.

Catching one is one, catching two is two, and before the battle in the imperial city is over, the members of the net have already taken action.

They were scattered in small groups along the main road between Kyoto and the four moats, and all the warriors who escaped were their prey.

The hunt has just begun.

"Where to go?"

Lu Zhi asked in a deep voice.

Zhao Gao said: "You'll know when you go." ”

"What if I don't want to go?"

"It's up to you!"

Lu Zhi's face became more and more calm, and his hand was already pressed on the hilt of the knife.

"I advise you not to do it, because you are no match for me."

Zhao Gao said softly.

"Not necessarily!" Lu Zhi naturally will not be restrained.

But as soon as his words fell, Zhao Gao's figure in front of him suddenly disappeared.

It just disappeared out of thin air, like a ghost.

Lu Zhidu wondered if he had read it wrong, or if it was his own imagination just now!

His eyes were a little dull and he looked at where Zhao Gao was just now.

"Obediently follow me, you may still have a chance to live!"

A voice came from his ears, and Lu Zhi suddenly froze.

His neck stiffly twisted backwards, and he looked at Zhao Gao behind him in disbelief.

When!

When did he come behind me?

What kind of speed is this, he didn't even react, and he didn't even notice it.

Lu Zhi was incredulous.

In terms of speed, among the people he had seen, Gonggong Lu's elusive speed had already shocked him.

He was still glad that Gonggong Lu was targeting Yu Qingzhou, and if it was aimed at him, he might not be able to escape the entanglement of Gonggong Lu.

But when observing Grandpa Lu's battle, he could still see Grandpa Lu's movements.

Now he is facing this mysterious person whose identity is unknown, and he can't even see the trajectory of his movement.

No, I can't even feel the breath.

No breath!

Except for the dead, all people in this world should have breath.

In the face of a person who has no breath, it can only show that the other party is extremely good at concealing his breath and has achieved the point of not leaking.

How many strong people are hidden in Dali!

Lu Zhi's mood was completely chaotic.

He was just surprised by the appearance of the person who received the order, and Gonggong Lu showed his strength, which shocked him, but there was another person in front of him who he couldn't see through, and suddenly, he had a feeling of numbness.

"Let's go!"

Zhao Gao said lightly.

Lu Zhi's expression moved slightly, and a light suddenly erupted in his eyes, and then he saw his figure leap out suddenly, and the speed was so fast that it shot towards the rising sun in the east like a long rainbow.

But as soon as he ran out of a hundred meters, it was as if he had hit his head against the wall, and with a bang, the whole person flew back upside down, and he retreated more than ten steps in the verdant field before stopping.

Naturally, he didn't touch the wall, and even if he did, the wall would have been knocked over by him.

He was slapped back by Zhao Gao.

Stabilizing his figure, he looked at Zhao Gao in front of him with a nervous face.

"You can make conditions, but you can't disobey my orders!"

"If you don't comply, you'll be gone from this world forever."

Zhao Gao still looked indifferent and indifferent, and there was no emotion in his tone.

Lu Zhi took a deep breath.

He still couldn't believe it.

The person in front of him made him powerless to fight back, and he couldn't even leave if he wanted to.

This kind of strength is probably even higher than the top powerhouses such as Ju Landao.

"Okay, I'll go with you!"

Lu Zhi said.

Zhao Gao gave him a deep look, and then walked in the direction of Kyoto.

Lu Zhi had already given up on escaping, because he knew that he would not be able to run away at all.

He followed behind Zhao Gao honestly, and the brilliant morning sun stretched his figure very long.

……

Mingxin Lakeside.

A charming figure flew down from the mountains and forests, flew over the lake like a dragonfly, and finally landed on a small boat on the lake.

"Mission failed, go!"

The anemone said in a deep voice.

The boatman at the stern of the boat immediately plucked the oars.

The boat rode slowly to the other side of the lake with the waves and the morning light.

Suddenly.

The anemone said coldly: "Stop! ”

"Miss, what's wrong?" The boatman asked.

"The boat can't go!" Anemone's charming eyes filled the cold look, and she scanned the lake around her.

The morning sun is sprinkled, the breeze is gentle, and the faint mist beats with the morning light, the breeze, and the water waves.

The next moment, the anemone did not hesitate and flew out directly, floating on the surface of the lake like a gust of wind.

……

Gazebo on the hill.

Lu Baifeng pressed down the trembling strings, and his eyes closed slightly.

His face was a little pale, and there was still a shallow tear stain in the corner of his eye.

It was the worst night he'd had in years.

Losing the innocence he once had, losing his original desire, it seemed that overnight, he had experienced thousands of red dusts.

"Giber, go help her."

He said lightly.

"The aftermath is over!" Ji Qian said with a smile.

Lu Baifeng shook his head slightly and said, "This is just the last love!" ”

"The last love? Are you sure! Ji Qian was a little surprised.

"Hmm!"

Lu Baifeng nodded, then slowly stood up and looked at the Mingxin Lake under the mountain.

"Since then, there will be no worries!"

Ji Qian looked at his back, and finally nodded.

……

On the lake.

Sea anemones breeze across the sparkling lake.

Wow~~

Suddenly.

Figures leaped out of the water.

The crystal water blooms in the air, and it looks particularly gorgeous under the rendering of the morning light.

It's just that under this splendor, there is also a chilling sword shadow.

Fierce sword qi, sharp blades poured out.

The anemone's body turned, the whole person swayed like a fairy, the light blue gauze fluttered, and wisps of cyan rhyme lingered around her, setting off her more fluttering and beautiful.

But the next moment, three slender ropes flew in, and before she could react, they were already wrapped around her body.

The ropes carried water and soaked her clothes.

A look of panic instantly crept up on the anemone's delicate face.

She only has an eight-grade cultivation, and in terms of force alone, she is not a master.

Her greatest ability is to use poison.

But the black-clothed man in front of her seemed to have taken precautions, and the poison she had just sprinkled had no effect.

Just when she had nothing to do, a sharp sound suddenly sounded in the air.

Several slender branches shot in from afar, breaking the rope directly.

Suddenly loosened, the anemone was stunned for a while, but then she reacted, and her figure floated up again.

Whoosh~~

The sound of breaking the air continued.

The slender branches of the trees fell like sharp arrows on the bodies of the black-clothed men, and in the blink of an eye, the clear water of the lake was stained red with blood.

The anemone dragonfly dotted the water and jumped up again on the surface of the lake.

She turned her head to look at the lake behind her, a bright smile on her delicate face.

But her smile froze again.

A palm of steel clenched her neck.

A burly figure appeared in front of her.

The figure that suddenly appeared, also dressed in black and masked, reached out to block a shooting branch, and looked up at the lake opposite.

A pair of deep eyes without any color.

On the shore of the lake, Ji Qian looked at the figure standing on the lake, and his face couldn't help but become solemn.

Innate Warrior!

The man just glanced at him and left with the anemone.

Ji Qian did not pursue, nor did he stop.

"How many innate masters are hidden in Kyoto this night!"

He muttered, then turned and sped off the mountain.

A moment later.

Lu Baifeng left the pavilion with him.

……

The light of dawn fell on the roof of the Shengtian Temple, and the golden glazed tiles reflected the misty light.

The heavy gate of Sheng'an Gate slowly opened, and one by one the courtiers slowly entered the imperial city.

They lined up in the square and prepared to enter the temple for the morning court.

At this time, the square appeared to be very clean, there were no corpses, no blood, only some broken places.

Knife marks, sword marks, shattered masonry are testament to what happened last night.

Ji Yuanchen stood in front of the ministers, his eyes slightly closed, and the old god was still there.

He was dozing off, he was old, and he hadn't slept all night, and now he wanted to go home and get some sleep right away.

Next to him, Qin Changping, Qin Changan, and Qin Jun all stood quietly.

It's just that Qin Changan's face is very ugly, and his eyes are full of palpitating coldness.

He looked at Qin Changping and Qin Jun beside him, although he didn't speak, the coldness in his eyes became more and more intense.

He was assassinated last night!

The sword had already pierced him in the forehead, barely an inch to pierce his head.

Thinking of last night's experience, Qin Chang's anger erupted like a volcanic eruption.

But he couldn't help it.

Because he knows that there was so much going on in Kyoto last night.

So much so that the assassination of him was not a big deal.

Even the imperial city was attacked, and even Emperor Li was assassinated, so what did it matter if he, the prince, was assassinated.

This morning's ministers were unusually quiet.

Usually, after everyone came, they would talk about the affairs of the court.

But today no one spoke, and they all stood quietly in the square, waiting for the call.

"All the ministers enter the palace!"

With the shout of a little eunuch, the ministers walked into the Shengtian Hall one after another.

Lihuang has already sat on the dragon chair, or Lihuang has never left.

The cloudy eyes scanned the ministers below, and there was no fluctuation on the old face of the Emperor Li.

Gonggong Lu stood beside Emperor Li, bowing his head and lowering his eyes.

The morning went on as usual, without any surprises and without any surprises.

And last night's events were as if nothing had happened, and no one mentioned them.

Everything is as it used to be.

It's just that everyone knows that everything has changed.

Regarding Zhao Gao's martial arts, Zhao Gao has never fought in the original book, only some relatively side descriptions, such as ghostly speed, even the black swordsman Shengqi can't feel his breath, and can manipulate all kinds of spiders. His strength should not be weak, but the author has no specific reference, so he can only write it in a fool's way, I hope you will forgive me.
