Chapter Forty-Nine: Escort Mission

In the palace of the prince of the Shu Dynasty, the prince Liu Ze was discussing something with some people, and at this time, a person came in from outside the palace, and someone knelt down and said: "Your Royal Highness, there is news from Yancheng." ”

Liu Ze's face was very excited after hearing this, and when he almost asked what the news was, he found that there was still someone there, and the prince calmed down his mood and said: "Everyone, let's talk about it here today, if there is anything, let's talk about it another day." ”

"In that case, then I'll retire first. One of them replied.

"Everyone, I'm not far away, I'll visit you another day. ”

After the crown prince Liu Ze watched a few people leave, he spoke again and said, "You guys also go down and close the door." ”

"Yes, Your Highness!"

After the palace maid closed the door, the prince asked excitedly, "Tell me quickly, what's the news?"

His Royal Highness's people got up and came to the prince's side and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, there is news from the shadow killing, the three princes will leave for the palace tomorrow, the shadow killing has been laid down on the road, and the gold medal killers of the second phase of the shadow killing have dispatched five at a time, and there are three elders of the shadow killing, which can be described as a strong lineup, even if the three princes have Situ Jiannan by their side, they can't do anything, this time they will definitely leave the three princes in Yancheng forever." ”

After hearing this, the prince Liu Ze immediately said with great joy: "Okay, my good third brother, don't blame me for being an elder brother, who has made you steal my limelight all the time, I am already the prince, I don't want any change in my status, so I can only be sorry for you, I will give you a few more sticks of incense every year in the future." ”

"Congratulations, Your Highness, for finally removing the stumbling block on your path to kinghood. His Royal Highness's people were happy to see the prince, and they also echoed.

"Haha...... Okay, when the time comes, the benefits will be indispensable to you, go down, always pay attention to the movements over there, and report any news in time. ”

"Yes, Your Highness, the minions are retired. ”

In an inconspicuous alley in the core area of Yancheng, there is a very old-looking house, which is a stronghold of Shadow Kill.

Inside the house, the Shadow Killer Leader, the three elders, and the five gold medal killers are all here.

"Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, I have heard clearly, the three princes and their entourage will go to the imperial city at the gate of the city tomorrow, and according to the next person's report, the three princes and their entourage have also found the three major families of Yancheng to escort them back to the imperial city, it seems that the three princes and others have found out. Wen Xiang said.

The hoarse voice of the Shadow Killing Commander sounded: "It's okay, it's just a few more people, and the impact on us is not very great." ”

"Lord Commander-in-Chief, there are many masters of the three major families in Yancheng, especially the Yang family, as far as I know, there are as many as four of them congenital Great Perfection masters, and their strength is very strong, except for the patriarch Yang Jin, the other two Great Perfection masters are both young and have very strong talents, which should not be underestimated. ”

"Since this is the case, in order to successfully complete the task, the three elders of Lao will take action together at that time. ”

"No problem. ”

The black-robed man spoke again and asked, "Wenji, how was the thing you did last time?"

After hearing the culture on the side, Wen Ji shouted directly outside, "Come in." ”

At this time, a person came out of the side room, also dressed in black, standing in the main hall, his body trembled a little, without a trace of killer breath, and he looked out of place with everyone in the hall.

"Meet the Commander-General. ”

The black-robed man on the first seat asked, "You are Yan Chengtian?"

"Yes, Your Excellency. "This person is Yan Chengtian, the eldest young master of the Yan Mansion, and he finally joined this organization. He raised his head and looked directly at the black-robed man on the first seat.

A cold gaze struck, and Yan Chengtian's whole body trembled, but he endured the pressure and never took his eyes off.

"Yes, the strength is okay, there is courage, but it lacks the meaning of the breath that a killer should have, so take him with him on this mission, if the task is successfully completed, the right martial arts will be given with merit at that time." ”

After Feng Lichen left the main hall, he returned to his residence with Yang Wu. From the moment he came out, Feng Lichen had been thinking about Yang Jin and his dynasty today. He felt that he had experienced too little, and if he could abandon even the most basic benevolence, morality and family affection for the sake of interests and rights, would he still be a human being?

Feng Lichen is a simple-minded person, influenced by his parents since he was a child, and attaches great importance to benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, filial piety, courtesy, righteousness and shame, and still knows too little about the world.

Yang Wu has been talking to Feng Lichen all the way, but he is immersed in his own world, just nodding casually.

"It is worthy of being my brother, he is really powerful, his talent is unprecedented, he has reached the realm of the Innate Great Perfection in just six years, and he has also achieved the final victory of this big competition in Yancheng.

Feng Lichen didn't hear Yang Wu's words at all, and still asked: "Brother Yang, do you say that the status of power is important for people to live for a lifetime, or is benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, and filial piety important?"

Yang Wu was stunned by the sudden question, a little inexplicable, but he still smiled and said: "Brother, I understand what you mean, in fact, I don't know much about this question, I only know that in life, no matter what you do, as long as you are worthy of heaven and earth, and worthy of your conscience." ”

Feng Lichen nodded a little clearly, in fact, there is no need to think so much, just go according to your own heart, people with simple minds, the less they think, the easier it will be to live.

Although Yang Wu's strength is not as good as Feng Liji, he is very diligent.

In the past five years, his strength has reached the middle stage of congenital, and he will soon enter the late stage of congenital, his talent is not very strong, but he is very hard-working, although he didn't say anything else, but Feng Lichen knows that Yang Wu is also a very strong person, and he has a heart in his heart that does not admit defeat.

Therefore, in the past five years, as long as he has time, he will spend it on practice, and he also wants to justify the name of the "Four Masters of Yangfu".

Yang Wu is honest and honest, he doesn't take fame and fortune very seriously, he just wants to prove that he is not worse than others and make himself better.

Feng Lichen has always regarded him as a brother, as long as Yang Wu has any questions about cultivation, he will answer them carefully. Feng Lichen didn't have any friends since he was a child, so he was very good for the kind of people who were good to him.

"Brother Yang Wu, tomorrow's task should not be as easy as imagined, although the master did not elaborate, but I can feel that this mission will definitely not go very well, when the time comes, you must be close to my side, and our brothers will join forces to fight the enemy. ”

"Brother, don't worry, why are the two brothers two hands in hand, invincible in the world, hahaha......"

Feng Lichen quickly separated from Yang Wu, returned to his room, and sat on the bed to recall everything in the last competition yesterday.

He found that since he broke through the Innate Great Perfection and reached the level of the Three Flowers Gathering Peak with his internal strength, he cultivated his internal strength and absorbed the aura much faster than before.

Now, in his body, not only is the spiritual energy in the dantian strong, but every muscle and bone in every inch of his body, including the meridians, has a strong spiritual energy, thinking of this, he immediately sat up cross-legged and began to run the exercises, feeling the changes in himself.

It didn't take long for him to find that if he attracted all his aura and covered it on his body to form a protective shield, it was similar to the invincible golden body cultivated by Yang Wu, at least he could withstand the blow of a master in the middle of the innate stage, but he didn't know if he could resist the attack of the late stage of the innate stage, and he must find his senior brother to verify it when he had the opportunity.

The next day, the sunlight came in through the window, and Feng Lichen was dressed in white, his black hair was naturally flowing, and he quickly came to the hall with the Nirvana Sword on his back.

Not long after, Yang Haoran, Yang Qing, Yang Wu and others also arrived one after another, and the last one to come was Yang Jin. Are you all ready? This mission is extremely important, and there is no room for mistakes, and everyone must be spirited. ”

Yang Haoran said: "Father, we are all ready to set off at any time." ”

Okay, then let's go, everything must be under my command, and you must not act without permission, or cause trouble, do you understand. Yang Jin instructed.

"Yes, Master"

Yang Jin attached great importance to this mission, in addition to himself and the four of Feng Lichen, he also brought ten masters of the personal guard team to go together, after all, he had to be very careful when doing business with the royal family.

When Feng Lijian and his team rode to the agreed place, he glanced at it and found that the people and horses of the other two major families, the Situ family and the Qin family, were already waiting here, and they were all led by the head of the family himself.

The Situ family has Situ Xiao, Situ Jing and Situ Xuan, as well as some masters, while the Qin family is led by Qin Wu, plus Qin Feiyu and Qin Xue There are more than a dozen people, and the team is very large.

Yang Jin dismounted and said slightly apologetically to Mr. Liu: "Mr. Liu, I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting." ”

Before Mr. Liu could reply, a discordant voice remembered: "The head of the Yang family is really a big show, let the three of us wait here for your family, isn't it just to win the big competition in Yancheng, don't you take us seriously." ”

Feng Lichen found that the person who spoke was Situ Xiao, the head of the Situ family, who was powerful, and Feng Lichen had only seen it during the competition.

At this time, Qin Wu, the head of the Qin family, also stood up and echoed: "Yes, it's not that the head of the Yang family doesn't know the identity of the patron, so if he doesn't take the two of us in his eyes, doesn't he even take Mr. Liu's master in his eyes?"

Mr. Liu hurriedly mediated: "Master Situ, Master Qin, don't be angry, anyway, there is still a quarter of an hour between the agreed departure time, everyone accepts this escort mission, don't hurt the harmony, you still have to rely on your unity and help along the way, so don't care about these little things." ”

Hmph, for the sake of Mr. Liu's face this time, I won't bother with you, I hope that some people won't drag their feet at that time. ”

At this time, Yang Haoran said: "I'm afraid that when the time comes, some people should not escape." ”

Hearing this, Situ Xiao was immediately furious, and his face turned blue and said, "Little bastard, what did you say?"

The three major families in Yancheng have always been at odds, and the Yang family, the Qin family, and the Situ family all started out in the bodyguard business, and it was also because of their peers that their relationship has not been good.

The individual strength of the Situ family and the Qin family cannot be compared with the Yang family, so the Qin family and the Situ family have been united against the Yang family and want to annex the Yang family.

However, the two of them also have their own ghosts, and I am afraid that if they really make a move, the other party will not go all out, resulting in a decline in their own strength.

Feng Lichen heard Yang Haoran say that once the Situ family took an escort mission, and when they were on a mission, they passed through the demon beast forest, but they were attacked by a demon beast that rushed out by chance, and suffered heavy losses.

Because the strength of the demon beast is too strong, and he has never encountered such a thing, Situ Xiao saw that he could not be defeated, so he broke through with his subordinates, leaving the patron family to fight the demon beast alone.

In the end, under the hard work of the patrons, he died with the seriously injured demon beast, and in the end, only his son escaped, and the others all buried the mouth of the demon beast.

After the man who escaped recovered from his injuries, he spread the news everywhere that the Situ family had broken his trust and abandoned his employer in the middle of the mission, resulting in the tragic death of the employer's family and that he was a witness.

This sudden rumor made the reputation of the Situ family ruined, and in Situ Xiao's impression, no one should be able to rush out, and no one would know about it.

In what way did the apprentice suppress the turmoil of this matter, and the person who escaped finally disappeared.

More than two years have passed since this incident, and it was mentioned by Yang Haoran again today, which was obviously the sore spot of Situ Xiao, so when he heard Yang Haoran speak, he would have such a big reaction.

"Little bastard, there's a kind you say again. ”

Yang Haoran stood up and said without fear: "This is a well-known fact, can't people mention it?"

"Okay, good, good, I'm smiling all over the world for so many years, how can a junior dare to be so rude to him, today I will teach your father a lesson for you, a yellow-mouthed child, and let you know how to respect your elders. ”

After speaking, he raised the knife in his hand and flew up, and the strength of the Innate Great Perfection burst out in an all-round way, and the speed was very fast, slashing towards Yang Haoran's face.

In the face of such a powerful opponent, Yang Haoran's face did not change in any way, he knew Situ Xiao's strength somewhat, and now he no longer took him in his eyes.

The three of them came to Yang Haoran's side, side by side with him, ready to strike at any time.

But Yang Haoran said: "Don't worry, I am enough to deal with him." They all know that since Yang Haoran dares to say this, he obviously has enough strength to deal with it, and they also believe in him, which is a tacit understanding and trust formed over the years.

I saw Yang Haoran quickly raise the scorching sun dragon spear in his hand, use enough internal force, and push out horizontally to block Situ Xiao's rapid advance of the double blade, Yang Haoran stood majestically and did not move, but Situ Xiao was shocked back, and retreated several steps in a row before standing firm.

Although his face did not change much, his heart set off boundless waves: "How can he be so powerful, it is not at all like he has just entered the Innate Great Perfection realm, but has solid strength." ”

At this time, Yang Haoran said: "What's the matter, do you want to teach me a lesson again, it seems that you are not qualified enough." ”

When Situ Xiao heard this, he immediately prepared to attack again, but Mr. Liu spoke and said angrily: "Stop, I don't want to ask about your personal grievances, but today you are all invited by the old man, I hope you can all give the old man this face, just stop it, and when the task is over, I won't ask how you want to fight." ”

Obviously, their conflict made Mr. Liu a little angry, although he is not a person who practices martial arts, but the majesty of the superior should not be underestimated.

After Situ laughed, he just snorted coldly and returned to his position. Yang Jin opened his mouth and said, "Haoran is back, don't make a move for unnecessary things." ”

Mr. Liu said again: Okay, since everyone is here, I believe you are all ready, let's go. Then he got on his horse and walked forward.
