Relying on his own scheming and martial arts, he regarded the martial arts heroes as fools and stupid men. Instead of knowing humility and restraint, the first to emerge is not known to be humble and restrained, but there is no one in his eyes, he insists on going his own way, making waves in the rivers and lakes, and doing whatever he wants, do you really think that everyone in the Central Plains martial arts is Luo Tianjin, and everyone will be deceived by you, and tolerate you again and again?" Lu Tingxiang looked indifferently at Liu Xunyi, who was besieged, and said righteously, "Today, Lu Mou wants to do the right thing for the sky, and clean up for the Central Plains Martial Arts and the Luo League Lord to clean up you, a shameless fanatic who doesn't understand the rules, doesn't talk about morality, and doesn't know the depths!" I want you to remember to the death that the tradition and order of martial arts that have lasted for hundreds of years are not something that you Liu Xunyi can shake. ”

After saying that, Lu Tingxiang, who had a cold and arrogant expression, seemed to suddenly realize something, his eyes changed suddenly, he quickly raised his head, and two sharp eyes shot towards the second floor of the inn like sharp swords.

At this moment, Su He, whose eyes were like torches and his body was like a gun, stood quietly in the corridor on the second floor like a Vajra Rakshasa statue, looking at the railing and looking down on the overall situation.

When Lu Tingxiang and Su He met each other, he seemed to feel a huge and invisible pressure pressing towards his heart, which made his heart tremble, and his pupils suddenly condensed uncontrollably.

It seemed that feeling the silent confrontation between Lu Tingxiang and Su He, Sikong Zhu, Ding Ao and others subconsciously slowed down the offensive. Gradually, the disciples of the Lu family, who were like wolves and tigers, also stopped surrounding.

In an instant, the hot and unbearable "furnace" fell into the cold and biting "ice cave", and the terrifying silence was like a sudden haze, permeating every corner of the inn and spreading in everyone's heart.

According to the ranking of the Dragon Elephant List, Su He ranked second, beating Lu Tingxiang who ranked third.

But in fact, Su He and Lu Tingxiang have always walked half of the road to the sky, and the two rarely intersect, let alone face each other.

Their ranking on the Dragon Elephant List is inferred based on their prestige and past records. As for who has the highest martial arts? Who can have the last laugh in a head-on battle? I'm afraid no one in the world dares to assert it.

At this moment, Su He's energy was all on Lu Tingxiang, but Ding Qinghong, who was standing beside him, kept staring at him intently.

Ding Qinghong was waiting for the opportunity, and he hoped that Su He would participate in the battle downstairs. In this way, he had the opportunity to deceive the simple-minded Wuzen, and wait for the opportunity to approach Zhao Xin and complete the "other errand" given to him by Jin Fuyu.

It's just that although Su He was concerned about Liu Xunyi who was in prison, he didn't mean to make a move. From beginning to end, he just stood motionless upstairs, expressing his heart to Lu Tingxiang with a complex and fierce gaze.

"Brother Su, this matter has nothing to do with you, you don't have to interfere!" Liu Xunyi seemed to see Su He's eagerness to try, and hurriedly persuaded him, "It is your mission to escort the princess to Helin, if there is any mistake in me, it will not only you and me who will suffer, but also countless innocent people in Song and Mongolia!"

As if he had been poked in the soft underbelly by Liu Xunyi, Su He's eyes trembled slightly, then he took a deep breath and arched his hand towards Lu Tingxiang, who was holding his breath: "In the 'Chifeng Ridge' Su He, I am honored to meet the famous 'First Gentleman of Martial Arts' Lu Tingxiang!"

"Although Lu has lived in Jiangnan for a long time, he is also thunderous about the name of 'the first fast knife in Mobei'. Lu Tingxiang said lightly, "Su Daxia, today Lu Mou came uninvited only for Liu Xunyi, and he has no intention of asking for trouble with others, let alone implicating Su Daxia and Princess Da Song, I hope you don't misunderstand." ”

Lu Tingxiang and Su He were afraid of each other, so neither of them commanded in front of each other, but both had a sincere attitude and gave three points of courtesy.

"Thank you Lu Gongzi for telling me frankly, Su has no intention of forming a bond with Jiangnan Lufu. It's just ......" Su He said again and again before he said intermittently, "Brother Liu and Su are friends of life and death, and they are like brothers." Seeing that he is in trouble today, Su is really difficult to turn a blind eye, let alone stand idly by!"

"Su Daxia Mingjian, Lu Mou came tonight not to target anyone, let alone seek personal revenge, but to follow the orders of the Central Plains Martial Arts Alliance Leader, and come here to kill the despicable traitor who took revenge and betrayed his master for glory. Lu Tingxiang said, "Liu Xunyi killed the leader of the Luo League, almost plunging the Central Plains martial arts into an unprecedented catastrophe. Lu Mou and all the righteous people in the rivers and lakes are of one heart and one mind, they should be jealous and hateful, support morality, and comfort the heroes of the Luo League!"

"The matter...... I'm afraid there will be some misunderstanding......"

"Su Daxia, forgive Lu for being blunt!" Lu Tingxiang interrupted, "Actually, what is the reason for this matter, and whether there is any misunderstanding, it is all a 'family matter' of my Central Plains martial arts, and it has nothing to do with outsiders." Since Lu is a person from the Central Plains Martial Arts, he should obey the orders of the Central Plains Martial Arts Alliance, as for whether Liu Xunyi deserves it or has other grievances, this matter can only be decided by the martial arts alliance leader himself, and it is not the turn of others to make irresponsible remarks. Su Daxia is a Mongolian and should not meddle in the affairs of our Han people. What's more, the Central Plains Martial Arts has always respected the factions outside the Saiwai, and the Jiangnan Lufu and Chifengling have not committed any crimes. I expect that Yan Wuji, the lord of Chifeng Ridge, doesn't want Su Daxia to act as his behalf. ”

was ridiculed by Lu Tingxiang for being "nosy", Su He's expression couldn't help but become a little embarrassed. After a little hesitation, a look of firmness suddenly flashed in his tangled eyes, as if he had made up some kind of determination, and resolutely spoke: "Lu Gongzi is quick to talk, Su admires! Tonight, I can't represent Chifengling, let alone the factions outside the Saiwai, just Su alone...... Can you ask Lu Gongzi for a favor and let Brother Liu go?"

Looking at Su He's righteous and awe-inspiring gaze, the corners of Lu Tingxiang's mouth twitched slightly. He knew that being able to make Su He say such a "plea" was enough to show that he had made up his mind and vowed to save Liu Xunyi's life.

At this point, if Lu Tingxiang refuses again, it will undoubtedly be a resounding slap in the face of Su He in front of the public, and the two will definitely form an indissoluble grudge.

At present, what is in front of Lu Tingxiang is by no means a simple choice, but a difficult choice related to his own fate and even the future rise and fall of the Jiangnan Lu Mansion.

In other words, what Lu Tingxiang wants to choose is not to kill Liu Xunyi or not, but to make a choice between "Central Plains Martial Arts" and "Mongols". He knew that although Su He kept saying that he did not represent any force, in fact, once he offended him, it would be tantamount to offending Chifengling and even the Mongolian court.

Similarly, Su He proposed such conditions to Lu Tingxiang, and he was also under tremendous pressure and took great risks. After all, Lu Tingxiang now not only represents the Jiangnan Lufu, but also the entire Central Plains martial arts.

In the final analysis, neither Su He nor Lu Tingxiang wanted to have a head-on conflict with each other, and neither wanted to back down. Therefore, both of them are gambling, using their net worth and the reliance behind them to break the boat, betting that the other party will not be able to hold their breath first.

In this regard, Liu Xunyi's heart is like a mirror, so his gratitude to Su He is more and more intense.

"Su Daxia rarely spoke, and Lu should have happily promised to show my admiration and respect for Su Daxia. After weighing it again and again, Lu Tingxiang replied quietly, "It's just that I can promise Su Daxia anything, but Liu Xunyi...... It was the leader of the martial arts alliance who issued the order to chase and kill the rivers and lakes, naming the people who wanted to do so, and Lu did not dare to be merciful. If I let Liu Xunyi go, presumably the martial arts alliance leader and the heroes of the world will never let me go......"

It seems that in the depths of Lu Tingxiang's heart, the martial arts of the Central Plains, which have been cultivated for many years, are far better than the Mongolians who meet in Pingshui.

Hearing Lu Tingxiang's answer, the expression on Su He's face gradually became exciting.

"Su Daxia, it's not that Lu is stubborn and self-serving, he has to kill Liu and find clothes, but he is in the rivers and lakes, and he can't help himself. Lu Tingxiang pretended to be helpless and bitter to defend himself.

"Master Lu, I'm ......"

"Brother Su!"

Liu Xunyi knows Su He's temperament very well, once he decides something, even if the fish dies and the net is broken, he will not be willing to do anything.

However, if Lu Tingxiang was annoyed and embarrassed, and the contradiction was implicated in Zhao Xin, Liu Xunyi would die and it would be difficult to forgive his sins.

What's more, at this moment, on the second floor of the inn, there is also a suspicious and impatient Ding Qinghong.

"Brother Su, I once remembered that when you were in the Qin Mansion, in order to quell the Song and Meng's rebellion, you did not hesitate to resist the coercion of the various sects in the Central Plains with your own strength. At that time, you would rather die than let your little brother interfere. Liu Xunyi said in a condensed voice, "Today, the younger brother also has the courage to beg Brother Su to fulfill it and not interfere in my affairs." ”

"But ......"

"If Brother Su treats me Liu Xunyi as a friend, listen to me!" Liu Xunyi interrupted without question, "If I am destined for this catastrophe, then ...... What's the point of dying?"

"Brother Liu, why are you so confused?"

Su He knew that Liu Xunyi was not the murderer who killed Luo Tianjin, and he also knew that he insisted on refusing to cry out because he was protecting someone. But now that the catastrophe is coming, Liu Xunyi is still obsessed, Su He's heart is inevitably mixed, and he is sad and angry for a while, and he doesn't know what to say.

"Since Su Daxia is willing to understand my difficulties, then Lu is also willing to give Su Daxia a favor. Lu Tingxiang didn't want to have a fight with Su He in his bones, and seeing that he had the intention of compromise at this moment, he simply pushed the boat down the river and took the initiative to give Su He a favor, "Tonight, Su Daxia won't make a move, Lu won't make a move, and everything about dealing with Liu Xunyi will be handed over to them." If...... Liu Xunyi can pick up a life from them, and Lu will never be entangled, how about it?"

In fact, he had already expected that Liu Xunyi, who had not recovered from his injuries, would never be able to escape under the siege of first-class masters such as Sikong Zhu, Ding Ao, and Dong Xiao'er. What's more, in addition to a few masters of Sikong Zhu, the hundred disciples of the Lu family are not vegetarians.

Because it was foolproof, he dared to swear a promise to Su He.

In the end, it's just a "pretty word".

After that, Lu Tingxiang no longer gave Su He a chance to think about it, his gloomy gaze slowly swept around the hall, and said in a deep voice: "I don't like to kill innocents indiscriminately, who doesn't want to die, it's still too late to leave." ”

Hearing this, the few tables of "real guests" and the shopkeepers and guys of the inn breathed a sigh of relief. Immediately afterwards, one by one, they rushed away from the Ulzhou Inn.

"And you!" Lu Tingxiang's gaze fell on Feng Tianba, who was covered in scars, and said impatiently, "Finally, I will give you another chance, if you don't want to accompany Liu Xunyi to the funeral, leave immediately!"

"You ......"

"Feng Tianba!" Liu Xunyi spoke before Feng Tianba, "Protecting the princess is the errand given to you by the imperial court. If you leave your life here, who will accompany the princess to Helin? The debts I owe in the rivers and lakes do not need to be repaid by outsiders. What's more, your martial arts are mediocre and you are injured, staying here will only drag me down. ”

Feng Tianba wanted to argue, but seeing Liu Xunyi's resolute attitude and unreasonable words, he hesitated again and again, and finally let out a heavy sigh.

After solving his worries, Lu Tingxiang no longer gave Liu Xunyi a chance to calculate. In an instant, the murderous intent in his eyes was fully revealed, and his words were extremely cold.

"Kill the willow and look for clothes, and reward 10,000 taels of gold!"

There must be brave men under the heavy reward, not to mention these loyal and brave sons of the Lu family?

Lu Tingxiang's order was like a stone stirring up a thousand waves. Hundreds of Lu family disciples roared and overturned the tables, chairs and benches, and one by one they swung their knives at Liu Xunyi like outlaws.

"Kill!"
