Deeper and quieter nights, the moon is dark and the wind is high.

At the beginning of the hour, Lin'an City was silent, and a carriage slowly drove through the empty and dim streets under the protection of more than a dozen guards, and the wheels pressed against the stone road to make a "gurgling" sound, becoming the only movement in a radius of several miles except for the sound of the wind.

This hour is the most sleepy time of the day, don't say that Lord Qian, who is in charge of state affairs, has long been exhausted and drowsy, and even the guards are bored and listless.

After all, as an important minister of the military state, Lord Qian was summoned by the emperor almost every day, and walked back and forth countless times from the palace to the Privy Council, and he has always been safe and sound, and there has never been any twists and turns. Therefore, the guards have long been accustomed to it, and even subconsciously take it lightly.

After all, in the Lin'an realm, even if someone eats the bear's heart and leopard gall, they are afraid and dare not trouble the privy deputy envoy.

With the carriage swaying, the exhausted Lord Qian was sometimes sleepy, sometimes awake, intermittent, but he could not sleep peacefully as before.

Tonight, he always felt a little inexplicable in his heart, and he fell asleep several times, and was awakened by a sudden palpitation.

Let him meditate hard, but he still can't discern where the worries come from.

"Ahem!"

Hearing the movement in the carriage, a sturdy black-faced guard hurriedly approached and said respectfully, "What do you command?"

"Can Bai Jin come back?" Either because he had just woken up, or because he was tired, Master Qian's voice sounded a little hoarse.

"Lord Hui, Lord Bai has not yet returned. ”

"He's been going to Tianji Pavilion for an hour, and he should have come back a long time ago. ”

"Perhaps...... Lord Bai saw that it was getting late, so he went home directly......"

Bai Jin has always been careful in his work, it is impossible to be so sloppy. ”

"This ......"

"Back to the Privy Council later, you go to the Heavenly Machine Pavilion. Master Qian said unhurriedly, "I suspect that Bai Jin and Qin Wei have a stalemate if they don't agree with each other. Dispatch my orders that they may come to the Privy Council early to-morrow morning. ”

"Yes!"

"Go back quickly! For some reason, I feel a little unsure. ”

"Yes. ”

The order was given, and the speed of the carriage increased by three points, and the guards changed from walking to jogging.

After a while, the horse-drawn carriage came to the junction at a gallop, and as long as you passed through the archway in front of you, you could reach the Privy Council with a stick of incense.

However, to the surprise of the coachman and the guards, at this time, on the top of the archway, stood a man in black who was as straight as a gun.

What's more, this person was carrying a sharp blade in his hand, and under the reflection of the hazy moonlight, there were faint and cold rays of light.

In the middle of the night, he blocked the road with a sword, and he didn't need to ask to know that the person who came was not good.

In the blink of an eye, the sluggish and sluggish dozen guards dissipated their sleepiness and showed vigilance.

"Who's pretending to be a ghost on it?"

The black-faced guard waved his hand to stop the carriage from moving forward, and a pair of tiger eyes glared at the black-clothed man on the archway viciously, his voice was thick and loud, and his tone was calm and tough.

"Woooo

At the same time, more than a dozen guards drew their swords out of their sheaths, and the well-trained ones consciously divided into two groups, one with knives in front, and the wings of the geese on the left and right of the black-faced guards were lined up. The other group surrounded the carriages to ensure that the money was safe.

"What's the matter?"

As if disturbed by the movement outside the car, Mr. Qian, who had just fallen asleep, woke up again, and in a fit of anger, he lifted the curtain and asked a question full of anger.

"Be careful, sir!"

Seeing Lord Qian appear, the two guards hurriedly jumped into the carriage and used their bodies as shields for him to prevent someone from secretly firing cold arrows.

"It's ......"

Seeing that the guards were unsheathed and staring at each other, Lord Qian was stunned for a moment, and then raised his eyes in the direction of the black-faced guard's finger. When he squinted his eyes and tried to identify the black-clothed man on the archway, his confused eyes suddenly froze, and his face was full of shock.

"That's ...... Liu Xunyi?" Lord Qian looked at the expressionless Liu Xunyi in disbelief, and subconsciously let out an exclamation, "Why is he here?"

"There is a wrong, and there is a debtor. You have been hiding behind the scenes to manipulate Qin Wei, secretly using tricks, and harming me, the Hou Ye, the Prime Minister, and the Dongfu so badly, do you really think that you can watch the fire from the other side and retreat with your whole body? Tonight, I made a special trip to ask for your life for the Hou Ye!"

"Presumptuous!"

Liu Xunyi's unruly remarks made Lord Qian furious. He pushed away the two guards who were blocking him, angrily pointed at the righteous and awe-inspiring Liu Xunyi, and scolded: "The official didn't go to you, but you took the initiative to send it to the door." Since you have thrown yourself into the net, the official of the province has sent someone to arrest you. Tonight, the ruler will defend justice with your head, and justify the punishment. ”

"Hmph! Even now, you are still full of benevolence and morality, and it is disgusting to see your villain appearance. ”

With that, the furious Liu Xunyi suddenly pointed the Wuji Sword towards the sky, and a vast murderous aura swept out from the sword blade, accompanied by a tiger roaring dragon groan, the wind between heaven and earth suddenly rose, and the cloud dragon wind and tiger slowly condensed around the Wuji Sword, intertwining and circling.

"Whoever can kill him, the official will be promoted to one level, and the bounty will be a thousand taels!"

Seeing Liu Xunyi's murderous intent, Lord Qian's face quietly changed, and a trace of jealousy flashed in the depths of his eyes.

"What a bold court criminal, he dares to openly confront Xifu, I think you are impatient!"

There must be brave men under the heavy reward, not to mention that these guards are the loyal and brave dead soldiers of Lord Qian? The black-faced guards who had long been unbearable shouted violently, rose to the sky, brandished steel knives violently, and rushed straight to Liu Xunyi on the archway.

At the same time, four or five more guards flew up and killed Liu Xunyi from different directions.

"Liu Xunyi, I've heard your name in the border camp, but I never believed that you were as evil as the legend suggests. The black-faced guard provoked with a cruel voice, "It's all two hands and two feet, you have a sword, I have a knife, I don't believe I can't beat you!"

"There are some reasons why you can't believe it!"

"Less nonsense!

"Khooth!"

"Click......

"Poof!"

It's too late, it's too soon. Before the black-faced guard's words fell, Liu Xunyi suddenly made a move, and a sword as fast as lightning did not shy away from meeting the roaring steel knife.

However, at the moment when the sword touched, the steel knife of the black-faced guard was actually pierced by the Infinite Sword, and the extremely sharp blade grazed the cracked blade suddenly, emitting a sharp and piercing golden sound.

This move shocked the black-faced guards, and the ferocious attack was suddenly wiped out. Unfortunately, before he could react, Liu Xunyi's merciless sword had been sent deep into his chest, piercing his heart and killing him instantly.

"Shhh

When the others watched Liu Xunyi easily take the life of the black-faced guard, they all looked shocked and timid.

"Now it's your turn!"

Liu Xunyi didn't intend to give them a chance to breathe, and with a loud shout, the Wuji Sword turned around, and the sharp sword qi turned into a circle of ripples and rippled out, making several guards who were caught off guard unavoidable and fell into the attack one after another.

If it is light, the skin will open and the flesh will bloom, and the blood will not stop. If it is heavy, the sword qi will seal the throat, and the life will be whimpered.

For a while, several guards in mid-air smashed to the ground like dumplings, either dying in Jiuquan and not moving, or they were seriously injured and wailing, the tragic scene was shocking, and the back was cold.

Until this moment, Qian Daren really realized what Lord Jia meant by repeatedly emphasizing Liu Xunyi's "strong martial arts" in Jingyun Pavilion.

"Stop him!

Gradually realizing that his guards were not Liu Xunyi's opponents at all, the restless Lord Qian hurriedly shouted orders to the other guards, and then couldn't wait to urge the coachman: "Leave the others alone, go back to the Privy Council quickly!"

"Drive!"

The panicked coachman had already fled for his life, and he was eager to use all his strength to spur the horse, and the horse neighed in pain, and rushed desperately towards the junction.

The frantic carriage knocked down three or five guards who could not dodge one after another, and they could not have imagined that they had not died on the battlefield, at the hands of the enemy, but at the hooves of their own horses.

Seeing Lord Qian fleeing in panic, Liu Xunyi's eyes suddenly cold, and while flying to the ground, he stabbed over the two guards, a little under his feet, and his body shuttled flexibly between the guards like a swimming dragon, and his sword was as sharp as lightning.

No entanglement, no war, no mercy, a sword to bring down a person, although not to death, but to make them unable to fight again.

In the blink of an eye, Liu Xunyi, who was covered in blood, stepped on the head of a guard and flew out, leaving a scarred and screaming disabled guard behind him.

"Old thief, where to go?"

"Whew!"

"Click......"

With a thunderstorm shout, Liu Xunyi volleyed out two sword qi in the air, shattering the pillars of the archway. The tall torii fell in response, setting off a deafening roar in mid-air, and collapsed in the direction of the carriage.

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, the collapsed archway slammed into the unreachable carriage impartially, and the heavy stone plaque crushed the horse to death. The unprepared coachman was squeezed between the broken archway and the broken carriage, and his bloody chest was dented in horror. The seven orifices are bleeding, the eyes are scattered, there is breath out, no breath, and it seems that his life is short.

For Mr. Qian, the archway only hit the front of the carriage, and did not kill him alive in the carriage, which is a blessing in misfortune.

However, when the torii slammed into the carriage, the carriage lost its balance and rose high and fell apart in mid-air. The senile Lord Qian staggered in the chaos, shook violently, and was finally thrown high and fell into the ruins.

He is said to be lucky because he was not stoned to death by the torii.

said that he was unfortunate because Liu Xunyi, who was angry and gnashing his teeth, was walking with a sword.

"Ahem......"

Lord Qian, who was covered in bruises, lay weakly in the ruins, and he had no strength after breaking his muscles and bones. Even though he was flustered in his heart, he was helpless, so he could only watch the murderous Liu Xunyi get closer and closer.

"You dare to assassinate the imperial court...... Aren't you afraid of being wiped out by the Nine Clans......"

"Hmph!" Looking at the bluffing Lord Qian, Liu Xunyi was neither humble nor arrogant, "I am the only one in the nine clans, and I ...... I didn't plan to leave alive. ”

"Liu Xunyi, this official has no personal grudges with you, everything I do is the plan of the imperial court......"

"I don't understand the imperial plan, and I don't want to understand it. ”

As he spoke, Liu Xunyi walked to Lord Qian's side in a mess, the tip of his sword against his chest, and his face changed, his voice stopped abruptly, and his breathing became more and more rapid.

"Liu Xunyi, you ......"

"Lord Hou has the grace of nurturing me, and the prince has a cultivation for me, if I can't avenge their shame, I will not look for clothes. Liu Xunyi's face was fierce and cold as frost, "I don't know who is right and who is wrong in the open and secret battles between the east and west mansions." I only know that revenge will be avenged, and murder will pay for life!"

"You ......"

"Suffer death!"

"No ......"

"Whoosh!"

"Poof!"

At the moment when Liu Xunyi made up his mind and wanted to stab Master Qian to death with a sword, a roar full of anger and despair suddenly came from behind him.

Almost at the same time, a bright blade suddenly poked out of his chest, and for a while blood gushed like a spring, gushing out of the wound, and the red blood soaked Liu Xunyi's robe.

"Boom!"

The strength of his whole body seemed to be drained in an instant, Liu Xunyi's mind quickly fell into chaos, and the Wuji Sword couldn't help but come out of his hand. As soon as his legs were weak, he could no longer support him, and he fell to his knees with a "poof".

Liu Xunyi slowly lowered his head in extreme pain and weakness, wanting to investigate his injuries, but his trance-like eyes quietly changed, and two lines of hot tears burst out of his eyes, and the tears that flowed down were like passing lives, falling into the endless abyss bit by bit.

Just because ...... He recognized the owner of the sword inserted in his chest as the "good brother" he had just been unable to bear to kill the killer, Qin Wei.

......
