Volume 1 In the World 027 - Lonely Warrior

Ying Tianqi stood on the carriage with a complicated expression.

Just now, the Snow Eagle Divine Bow shot that earth-shattering arrow, and the powerful and incomparable wave of qi shattered the roof of the car and overturned the curtain of the car, this was the first time in his life that he shot an arrow with this bow, but he didn't expect it to have such terrifying power.

He asked himself if he was sure that he would be able to escape death under this arrow, but the man did.

Goofy dodged.

However, although he escaped death, he could not dodge the arrow.

At the moment of dying, Goofy grabbed the handle of the arrow with his right hand, causing the head of the scissors to deviate by half an inch, and also unloading most of the impact of the arrow, otherwise the arrow would have pierced his eyebrows and pierced his head.

But even so, the arrow still drove into Goofy's left eye.

Goofy fell on his back.

Everyone was stunned by the arrow, and the cavalry that rushed up seemed to have forgotten to attack, and the high-flying guards surrounded him in the middle, glaring viciously at these dastaring assassins.

And Xiang Qiushan, who was standing on the city tower watching all this, was even more dumbfounded, and he almost subconsciously shouted: "Quick! Go out of the city and rescue the king!"

And this order became the most wrong order in his life, and he had already begun to regret it when he first shouted it.

However, before he could withdraw the order, the guards at the city gate, who had witnessed what was happening outside the city, were already impatient, and when they heard the order, they pushed the gate open with all their strength.

This push also pushed everyone left behind in Qiu City into the abyss.

The silver-armored iron cavalry that blocked Gao Fei's retreat immediately rushed to the city gate, just as Xiang Qiushan himself had predicted, once the cavalry rushed into the city, the city gate could no longer be closed, and the cavalry that followed rushed in, and the ten thousand elite cavalry rushed into the city one by one, and the five thousand soldiers defending the city became lambs to be slaughtered.

In desperation, he threw the last carrier pigeon to Akiyama to the north.

"The assassination of the king has caused Qiu Cheng to be lost, so hurry back to help!"

Outside the city, the guards guarding Gao Fei had all fallen, and Ying Tianjiao held the saber that was still dripping blood, and approached Gao Fei who fell to the ground step by step, and had no power to resist.

"You are a respectable opponent, I really wish I had the opportunity to fight you openly, but unfortunately I didn't have a chance. Ying Tianqi raised the butcher knife, but for some reason, he was slow to start.

It was a trap from the beginning, he arranged for an entourage to disguise himself and ride on a dragon horse, while he himself hid in the wedding car and looked for an opportunity to assassinate Goofy with a cold arrow, perhaps deep down in his heart, he would also feel ashamed and sorry to kill a hero by such a despicable means.

But he immediately thought of Nangong Yue, and as soon as he thought of her, Ying Tianjiao immediately felt that he had another reason to kill him.

So his sword fell.

The knife made a crisp sound of "ping-pong".

A sword stuck in the ground in front of Goofy, and the knife slashed at the sword.

The sword was several times larger than an ordinary saber, with an ancient style and many strange fine lines engraved on the sword.

Ying Tianqi turned his head to look to the side, and sure enough, he saw a young man galloping towards here on a horse.

The man quickly came to the front of Ying Tianjiao, and he jumped off his horse and drew his sword stuck in the ground.

Ying Tianjiao was a little surprised, "It's you?"

The visitor smiled, as if he was just passing by the neighborhood and saving someone at random, and he didn't come to look for trouble.

But Ying Tianjiao knew very well in his heart that this person was only afraid that he would come to find trouble.

"You're going to save him?"

"Count it up, he should be my brother-in-law, you can't kill him. The visitor glanced at Goofy's injury, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and his tone suddenly became cold.

"Yun Luochen, don't forget, you are not surnamed Gao now, and you are no longer from the Southern Chu Kingdom!"

Yun Luochen stood up straight, protected Gao Fei behind him, and said, "Although I am no longer from the Southern Chu Kingdom, I am still a person. ”

He stared at Ying Tianqi coldly, "It's not like you, do some things that beasts do!"

Ying Tianqi was furious, "Yun Luochen, who do you think you are?

"I praise you, do you think you are worthy of being in the company of brutes? As a marquis, you are not even as good as brutes for doing this kind of sneak attack and plotting!"

"You!" Ying Tianzhu's eyes widened angrily, "Yun Luochen, you don't need to be quick to talk here, if you want to save him, you also have to see if you have the ability!"

Before he could finish speaking, he raised his knife and slashed at Yun Luochen's head.

Yun Luochen had long heard that Ying Tianjiao was the strongest person of the younger generation in Qingqiu Country, but he had never seen him make a move. When he arrived here, he saw Goofy lying on the ground, and Ying Tianqi raised his sword to kill him, he knew Goofy's strength very well, it was really hard to imagine who could hurt him like this.

He didn't know what means Ying Tianjiao used to seriously injure Gao Fei, just now he said that Ying Tiancalyp's sneak attack was just speculation and temptation, and there was another purpose, which was to provoke him to strike first.

In a master duel, the side that strikes first often shows its flaws first.

But he really didn't expect Ying Tianjiao's knife to be so fast, so fast that he could barely dodge.

He couldn't dodge either, because once he dodged, the sword of the Ying Heavenly Tribulation might hurt Gao Fei behind him.

Yun Luochen raised his qi and luck, and the powerful and incomparable internal force formed an invisible protective shield on the surface of his body.

This is exactly the same as the trick when Gao Fei resisted the sneak attack of the cavalry just now, the martial arts of the two of them were originally from the same sect, this kind of domineering internal force is the secret of the Gao family, but the full force of the Ying Heavenly Tribulation with his body is almost no different from sending him to death in the eyes of others.

Ying Tianqi only felt as if the blade was slashed on a piece of solid iron, and the huge recoil force shook him back several steps, and Yun Luochen's situation seemed to be even worse, although he was still standing there motionless, but at this moment, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and his face was a little pale.

Obviously, Yun Luochen, who had some scruples, still suffered some internal injuries after resisting this knife with his body just now.

However, what is unbelievable is that in the next second, Yun Luochen has suddenly appeared in front of Ying Tianjiao, no one could have imagined that he was still so fast after being injured internally, and the ancient giant sword in his hand slashed towards Ying Tianjiao's head.

But Ying Tianjiao was also one of the top masters of the Qingqiu Kingdom, and his body twisted, almost clinging to the blade of the sword to dodge the blow.

However, Yun Luochen immediately changed his move, and the sword blade that was originally slashing downward suddenly swept towards Ying Tianjiao's waist.

This blow was unavoidable, and Ying Tianjiao had to block it with a horizontal knife.

Only heard a muffled sound of "bang", Ying Tianjiao only felt as if a wall was flying and crashing into him, he was hit by this force and flew out a few meters away, and he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart: "What a strong internal force!"

However, as soon as he stood still in embarrassment, the great sword that seemed to weigh a thousand pounds was in front of him again.

He had no choice but to raise his sword again to block.

In this way, after dozens of moves in a row, Ying Tianjiao has been tired of coping, because the arrow he just shot with the Snow Eagle Divine Bow greatly consumed his internal strength, and it was already a little difficult to parry at this moment, but Yun Luochen seemed to have inexhaustible energy, and every blow was still as fast as lightning, thunderous.

Although Yun Luochen has completely suppressed his opponent, he also knows very well in his heart that it is tantamount to a fool's dream to completely defeat Ying Tianjiao here, Ying Tianjiao is not in vain, and he will not be able to defeat him in a short period of time, but those cavalry under his command have already rushed to this side.

Yun Luochen swung out a sword to repel Ying Tiancao, and he also used his strength to retreat to Gao Fei's side, pulling up Gao Fei and getting on horseback, Ying Tianjiao hurriedly shouted: "Stop him!"

The cavalry behind immediately divided dozens of people and rushed to the official road leading from Lingqiu City to Diyun City, and Yun Luochen had to turn his horse's head and run in the direction of Qingqiu Kingdom.

Ying Tianjiao also stepped on his dragon horse and led more than a hundred cavalry to chase over.

Yun Luochen made Gao Fei lie on his back, and then tore off his clothes and tied it to himself and his waist, and galloped towards the border of Qingqiu Country.

He didn't know if Gao Fei was still conscious now, but he still comforted: "Third brother, you have to hold on, Ying Tianjiao set up an ambush to assassinate you without authorization, and sabotaged the marriage between the two countries, which is a great crime, I will go back to Qingqiu Country now to report his crime, he doesn't dare to catch up." ”

Goofy didn't move.

Yun Luochen couldn't help but blame himself in his heart: "I should have thought that Ying Tianjiao must have another conspiracy to take the initiative to escort the princess, but I really didn't expect him to be so bold, he has pursued the princess for many years, and he can't love it, and his heart must have been extremely twisted, I should have thought of this, if only I had arrived earlier......"

He suddenly heard Goofy behind him let out a faint sigh.

"Third brother!" Yun Luochen called softly.

Gao Fei's lips moved a few times, and he spit out a few words with difficulty, but unfortunately he was injured too badly, his voice was indistinct, coupled with the galloping horse galloping and the wind whistling, Yun Luochen couldn't hear what he said at all, so he had to put his ear to Gao Fei's mouth as much as possible, and asked, "Third brother, what you just said, I can't hear clearly." ”

This time, Goofy could only open his mouth, but he could barely make a sound.

It's a pity that Yun Luochen has his back to Gao Fei and can't see his mouth shape, if you can see it, it's actually easy to read what he means, because there are only four simple words:

"Don't go to Qingqiu!"

At this time, Southern Chu, whether it was in the national capital of Diyun City or the old capital Lingqiu City, was a bloody storm, while Longchuan, the capital of Qingqiu State, was still peaceful and peaceful, singing and dancing.

The monarch Nangong Yu sat leisurely in front of the collapse of the dormitory, as if he was still intoxicated in the drunken dream of the drunken dream of the wine and dancing girl, if this scene was seen by outsiders, he would definitely think that this was a desolate and mediocre monarch, and would not have thought that this would be a celebration banquet.

What kind of celebration banquet, there is not a single minister, not a general, or even the participation of the royal family, only the monarch himself and a group of palace maids who are warblers and swallows?

This is, of course, because this merit is very secretive, and it will not be recorded by the historians, and only the monarch can know about it.

However, in Qingqiu Country, there may be exceptions to such things, and no matter how secret things are, in addition to the monarch knowing, there must be one more person.

Mu Tianqing didn't know when she had appeared in the dormitory.

Nangong Yu raised his eyelids and said lazily: "It's rare for the holy woman to go out, why did she come here alone?"

Mu Tianqing just stood silently in place, not saying a word.

Nangong Yu waved his hand and dismissed the palace maids who were still dancing below.

After a long while, Mu Tianqing sighed faintly and said, "You shouldn't do this." ”

Nangong Yu's face was still full of drunkenness, and he asked perfunctorily, "I don't know what the Holy Maiden said?"

"You should know that even if you can hide it from everyone in the world, you can't hide it from me. Mu Tianqing's expression was still unwavering, as if there was nothing in the world that she really cared about.

"You have already exchanged letters with Zhu Ning, the national teacher of Southern Chu, and the courtship in the main hall is just a pretense, even your own daughter has been deceived by you, your real goal is to kill Gao Fei, the newly established monarch of Southern Chu, because you are worried that once a young and promising king like him becomes powerful, it will hinder your great cause of dominating Southern Xinjiang, not to mention, Zhu Ning has promised you that after taking power, he will cede the seven cities east of Lingqiu City to you. ”

The drunkenness on Nangong Yu's face had completely disappeared, and even for a moment, a trace of killing intent flashed between his eyebrows.

He suddenly laughed, "I don't know what the saint is talking about, but I don't understand." ”

Mu Tianqing ignored him, but said indifferently: "The Southern Chu Kingdom is difficult to return, with the strength of the Qingqiu Kingdom, it is only a matter of time before the Southern Chu is destroyed and becomes the new overlord, you are so eager for quick success and quick profit, and if you do this unrighteous act, even if you dominate in Southern Xinjiang, I am afraid that the luck of the Qingqiu Kingdom in the future will not last long." ”

Nangong Yu frowned, and seemed to hear a hint of extraneous sound, "What the Holy Maiden means, hegemony in Southern Xinjiang is still not enough to become powerful, could it be that the threat of my Qingqiu Kingdom will be in the north?"

Mu Tianqing didn't answer him, but sneered: "What do you care about so much now? Do you think you can wait until that day?"

Nangong Yu was silent, indeed as she said, he was already very old, and he also knew that his life was coming to an end, he had been in the position of the monarch for so many years, in order to achieve hegemony, he was already exhausted, he was too tired.

It's a pity that I have worked hard all my life, but I still can't see the day when I achieve glory.

Mu Tianqing didn't know when he had left, Nangong Yu was lying on his back on the couch, for some reason, he suddenly felt that today's secret celebration banquet was really boring.
