Xuanxia

Chapter 252 He has no position

Fu Qingzhou was a little confused.

He thought that Wu Yan had many ways to deal with it - either to counterattack regardless of his injuries, or to dodge, or to use some weird body movements to deal with it...

But turning around and jumping into the river was not what he expected.

What surprised him even more was that when he jumped down the riverbank following Wu Yan, he actually found a boat and a person below?!
Look at the way Wu Yan draws his sword - is his target the boatman?

"careful!"

Fu Qingzhou shouted, and changed the direction of his sword, stabbing towards Wu Yan's back.

Wu Yan didn't care and pointed his sword as fast as lightning at the boatman!
The boatman was shocked and shouted, then swung the oar in his hand and hit Wu Yan!

As the oars were waved, water splashed and a strong wind blew up, blowing towards Wu Yan and Fu Qingzhou at the same time.

Fu Qingzhou's knife failed to touch Wu Yan, and the strong wind had already hit him - this boatman's cultivation was so strong that he was actually a sixth-level warrior!
Wu Yanli was closer to the oars, and in the blink of an eye, the wind blew numerous bloody marks on his face, but he seemed unaware and continued to thrust his sword downwards.

In an instant, the three of them started fighting each other.

The boatman's cultivation was higher than the other two, and... it seemed that he regarded Fu Qingzhou and Wu Yan as accomplices. He growled and swung his oar, smashing towards the two of them madly.

Wu Yan's expression remained as calm as water.

There was no longer any trace of Fu Qingzhou in his sight, only the boatman. He didn't care where Fu Qingzhou's sword was, he just kept raising his sword to attack the boatman.

As for Fu Qingzhou...

“This boatman is wrong.”

He thought to himself, "He has a strong smell of blood, and the oar he uses is a very advanced marksmanship - he is a soldier!"

"What is a soldier doing here in a boat in the middle of the night?"

Fu Qingzhou's mind raced as he reduced his offensive power, and the purpose of his sword swinging changed from "stopping Wu Yan" to "stopping Wu Yan from attacking while stopping the boatman from leaving."

The battle was fought in confusion and chaos, and the boatman soon discovered something was wrong.

Seeing Fu Qingzhou once again use his long sword to deflect Wu Yan's sword, he immediately retreated three steps, held the oars across his body, and frowned, "Who on earth are you!"

Wu Yan said nothing and continued to stab with his sword.

Fu Qingzhou narrowed his eyes and said, "Why don't you tell me first, who are you?"

The boatman said nothing, and rowed his oars again to fight with Wu Yan.

Fu Qingzhou watched them fight with a frown on his face. Suddenly, his ears moved slightly and he looked up at the other side of the river.

Although there was chaos on the boat, he still heard the sound of fighting coming from the courtyard on the other side of the river!

The boatman obviously heard the noise from the shore, and his face became anxious.

At the same time, a domineering laugh was heard in the courtyard: "You guys, with just a few talents, want to kill me, Ning Wushu?!"

The next moment, there was a loud bang!
A brick wall of a small courtyard collapsed with a loud bang, and a figure flew out like a broken sack!

The figure flew across the surface of the stream, passed over the heads of Fu Qingzhou and the other two, and crashed heavily onto the riverbank.

Fu Qingzhou looked at him in astonishment - he saw an arrow stuck in the man's chest, pinning him to the riverbank.

Is this... Ning Wushu’s arrow?

The man was nailed to the riverbank, blood gushing out of his mouth. He stared at the boatman and said in a hoarse voice: "Why don't you go..."

"Can't you see I'm fucking tangled up!"

The boatman was anxious and angry. He shouted and smashed Wu Yan's head hard with the oar.

But Fu Qingzhou understood.

The person living in that small courtyard was none other than Ning Wushu, and the boatman who looked like a soldier... was here to kill Ning Wushu!

"It's been a busy day."

He sighed, "Someone wants to kill Ning Wushu, but Wu Yan wants to kill the killer who came to kill Ning Wushu?"

This is a bit confusing, but in other words, from the purpose... Wu Yan doesn't seem to be his enemy. Ning Wushu is a general of the Northern Frontier Army and the holder of the Hidden Dragon Token. No matter what the purpose of the boatman is, they are definitely not good people when they come to kill him in the middle of the night.

As for Wu Yan... forget it, this guy has always been an emotionless task tool, so why bother with him?

So the next moment, Fu Qingzhou moved again.

At that moment, the boatman hit Wu Yan's leg with his oar. With a click, the oar and Wu Yan's leg... broke at the same time.

But Wu Yan was unaware of the pain of the broken bones. Taking advantage of the boatman's full strength, he pierced the flesh on his shoulder with a sword!
As blood flew, Fu Qingzhou's long sword also arrived.

The sword that subdues demons and cuts off karma!

The powerful sword energy whistled and cut down the boatman from behind!

The boatman had just been wounded by a sword and was gritting his teeth and groaning in pain when suddenly his whole body began to tremble uncontrollably.

When he turned around, the long sword had already fallen.

The boatman subconsciously wanted to swing the oar to fight back, but he saw Wu Yan rushing over with an expressionless face and locking his hands tightly with both arms!

"Ugh!"

A scream pierced the sky, blood splattered, and the boatman's right hand flew into the air, turned several circles in the air, and fell into the river with a splash. The oar also fell onto the deck.

Zheng——

The long knife hummed, and Fu Qingzhou had already placed the knife on the boatman's neck, with the tip of the knife pointing right at Wu Yan's brow.

As long as he wanted, he could reap two lives at the same time with one strike of the knife!

"Don't move." He said in a deep voice.

Wu Yan didn't listen at all. When he saw the boatman's right arm being cut off, he moved without hesitation, raised his rapier, and stabbed it into the boatman's heart.

Fu Qingzhou's pupils shrank and he moved the knife forward.

The blade cut the boatman's neck, but the measure was well controlled and did not cut into his artery - he wanted to keep the boatman for questioning, but also wanted to force Wu Yan to retreat.

But how could Wu Yan retreat?

He just turned his head and ignored the knife.

The long knife slashed across Wu Yan's cheek, leaving a deep wound deep into the bone, but the drizzle in his hand had already accurately pierced into the boatman's heart!
The boatman didn't even have time to utter a groan before he quickly collapsed.

"you!"

Fu Qingzhou gritted his teeth and retracted his sword, watching the boatman collapse and die on the deck, no longer breathing.

Wu Yan took a step back, shook off the blood on his sword, and remained expressionless. He then pressed his broken leg against the deck and twisted his body...

click!
Just took it back.

Of course, I don’t know whether it was connected firmly or properly.

"Who is this man, and why did he want to kill Ning Wushu?" Fu Qingzhou frowned and asked, "And who hired you?"

Wu Yan tilted his head: "You actually thought I would say it?"

Fu Qingzhou: “…”

Wu Yan was about to speak again when he suddenly heard a rumbling sound in his stomach.

He took another step back to the edge of the deck and said softly, "Let's go eat. Let's go."

After saying that, he didn't stop and jumped into the river with a splash. Soon he disappeared in the dark night.

Fu Qingzhou shook his head helplessly.

But right now, he really didn't have the time to care about Wu Yan.

I raised my head and looked towards the small courtyard - it was already very noisy, with shouts and calls for fighting, and the sounds of swords clashing could be heard everywhere.
