Jiangshan Fengwuzhi

Chapter 106: Breaking the Pot (Part )

"what is that?!"

On that day, countless people in the capital saw the man waving his flaming wings and soaring into the sky, and they all stopped and looked up.

In the Kingdom of Rui, few people dare to perform magic so openly, because it is strictly prohibited by the imperial court.

Gu Jingnian himself knew that even if he could heal himself quickly and had a pair of flaming wings that could allow him to fly, when the many masters from Bei Ya and Cage Man arrived, someone would naturally be able to capture him.

But this time, his goal was to destroy as many of them as possible before being captured.

"I am Gu Jingnian, the son of the traitor Gu Beiming, and this is the prime minister Zheng Kuangfu!"

He shouted loudly, dodged the nets that were aimed at him, and flew a circle in the air carrying Zheng Kuangfu, who was bleeding from his eyes and screaming.

Some men in black had no choice but to fly after him, and their black clothes were very conspicuous in the daytime.

"For many years, the one who secretly colluded with my father and son, refined aliens, and killed living beings was Zheng Kuangfu. He was unworthy of the position of prime minister, but in fact he was extremely evil. If you ask what evidence I have? I am the evidence! I am one of the refiners created by the court with the lives of tens of thousands of people!"

After saying that, Gu Jingnian shook off the man in black who was chasing him and threw Zheng Kuangfu in his hand to the ground.

Others thought he was going to threaten them with his position as prime minister, but they didn't expect him to be so decisive and ruthless. After a moment of shock, they all rushed forward to rescue him.

Zheng Kuangfu had lost the pair of eyes that could see through everything. He felt himself falling in the darkness and thought that Gu Jingnian was trying to scare him.

He still has a lot of big things to do.

In fact, even what Gu Jingnian knows now is just the tip of the iceberg of his many plans.

However, the speed of descent was increasing.

"Oh!"

Before Zheng Kuangfu realized what was happening, he was smashed into a pulp.

Dust rose and fell, and on the ground there was a pool of blood that was getting bigger and bigger.

The wind blew, and a footprint appeared on the bloodstain. Then, Long Minzhi appeared next to Zheng Kuangfu's body with her hands raised.

"Senior brother?"

Long Minzhi called out, but got no answer.

She arrived a little late.

But she had no time to be sad, as a fireball fell and hit Zheng Kuangfu's body, starting a raging fire.

Long Minzhi moved more than ten steps away in an instant, but a few strands of hair on her head had been burned to ashes.

She looked up and muttered.

"madman."

After learning to fly, Gu Jingnian really seemed like he was crazy.

He threw fireball after fireball at the men in black who were surrounding him, then ducked low and flew through the flames. The two flaming wings on his body instantly grew enormous.

Seeing dark clouds in the sky floating towards this side, he quickly flew in the other direction.

That's the direction of Miyagi.

Zheng Kuangfu's private residence was not far from the palace gate. Gu Jingnian quickly flew above Zhaowen Pavilion and flapped his wings without saying a word.

Since the way of alchemy first came from the Fengwuzhi collected in the Shobunkan and the notes of his master, he destroyed them.

The fire soon broke out in the wooden library, causing the court officials to exclaim in surprise.

However, a strange phenomenon suddenly occurred.

The fire melted the snow outside the library, and the snow water quickly froze into ice, which then quickly solidified on the library, freezing it in an instant and covering up the fire.

Gu Jingnian saw three eunuchs standing together in a formation and raising their hands at him.

Several ice spikes suddenly grew out of the ice surface on the library, shot straight into the sky, and stabbed at him.

He quickly flew high to avoid the ice spikes, and saw more eunuchs coming out of the library. Not knowing what they were capable of, he simply flew deeper into the palace.

It was just after the morning court session, and he guessed that the Emperor of Rui was in the living hall, so he flew directly above the hall, and flames poured down from his two flaming wings.

The fire wings quickly shrank in size, maintaining a state where they could fly.

The living hall was soon engulfed in fire. One can imagine the shock caused by such a sudden attack and arson in the palace.

Gu Jingnian was not sure about who else there were in the palace, so he didn't look around and flew away before more experts gathered around.

Since he was determined to fight to the death, he just set the fire without caring how others tried to put it out.

The dark cloud in the sky grew bigger and moved quite fast, soon covering the palace.

Heavy rain fell.

Gu Jingnian made a circle and flew back over Zheng Kuangfu's private residence, flew through the fire that had not yet been extinguished, spread out his huge pair of flaming wings again, and slammed down on the pursuers.

He really did seem crazy.

At worst, they could burn down all government offices, or even the entire capital city...

"Gu Jingnian!"

In the melee, someone suddenly shouted at him.

Ever since he took off, someone has been calling him, but he simply ignored it. But this voice was different. It was a voice that Gu Jingnian was very familiar with.

He lowered his head and saw Gu Caiwei.

"Stop it!" Gu Caiwei wiped the tears from her face and shouted at him.

For example, when he was very young, he was bullied and lost his temper. He smashed two porcelain pieces in the house and then raised Gu Beiming's favorite wine jug to smash it, but she persuaded him to stop.

Since then, he has been taken care of and raised by Gu Caiwei.

For Gu Jingnian, this sister is the only relative he can depend on.

But this time, he didn't listen to her.

"Sister, I can't save you, let's die together with them!"

In an instant, Gu Jingnian saw clearly that the man standing behind Gu Caiwei had half his face covered. It was Min Yuanxiu, the governor of the Southern Court. Mei Chengzong could only stand slightly behind Min Yuanxiu, which showed how strong he was. Otherwise, he would not have dared to come at this time.

In addition, Gu Jingnian noticed that Gu Caiwei’s newborn child was not here, and those people always had various back-ups.

The Gu and Lu families have been destroyed, and Lu Yanning has been turned into a monster. There is no point in escaping, so he will inflict as much pain as possible on his enemies before he dies.

With this determination, he did not stop at all, but became more aggressive instead.

"Gu Jingnian!"

Min Yuanxiu saw this and shouted loudly.

He didn't seem to be struggling when he spoke, but his voice was loud.

What’s even more terrifying is that when Gu Jingnian heard it, his mind suddenly made a buzzing sound and went blank for a long while.

When he came to his senses, the flaming wings behind him had dimmed a lot and he was falling. So he quickly flapped his wings, trying to fly higher and avoid Min Yuanxiu.

"it's over!"

Min Yuanxiu continued to speak, and every word seemed to be messing with Gu Jingnian's head, causing him severe pain.

This is not about water overcoming fire or fire overcoming wood, but no matter what supernatural powers there are, they will be controlled by Min Yuanxiu.

"Your Majesty has long intended to ban the alchemy technique. Now that Zheng Kuangfu is dead, the matter is over. If you stop now, I will protect Gu Caiwei and her daughter. Otherwise, I will kill them immediately!"

As he heard these words, Gu Jingnian finally stopped feeling the headache.

This is Min Yuanxiu's expression of willingness to talk.

He steadied himself in the air, flew in front of Min Yuanxiu, stood in mid-air, and said, "You officials are protecting each other, how can I trust you?"

"The fact that Ruiguo can ban alchemy means that there are people who are maintaining peace." Min Yuanxiu said, "I can kill you at any time. Whether you believe me or not, it doesn't make much difference to me."

Gu Caiwei glanced at Lu Yanning, who had turned into a monster in the distance, with a sad look in her eyes. She turned to Gu Jingnian and sighed, "Envoy Min can be trusted."

While she was talking, Min Yuanxiu turned around and saw someone escorting Pei Nian over. He ordered, "Release Pei Nian. Everything she did was under my orders."

"Yes."

"The caged people and the Bei Ya are coming soon." Min Yuanxiu turned to Gu Jingnian and said very frankly: "You come to be my bargaining chip, and I will save your sister. Or you fight with them, and I can't save your sister. It's your choice."

Gu Jingnian was just about to negotiate the terms.

"break!"

Seeing that he had a cooperative attitude, Min Yuanxiu was impatient to say more and suddenly shouted again. Gu Jingnian's head was dizzy and he vomited blood and fell to the ground.

"Quick, take it down."

Just as Min Yuanxiu finished giving his orders, heavy rain began to fall, putting out the fire at Zheng Kuangfu's private residence.

A horseless carriage suddenly appeared on the street.

Someone lifted the carriage curtain and said, "This is the Northern Court's business."

"I have already captured the person." Min Yuanxiu said, "Then it is my Nan Ya's business."

"Oh?"

"Zheng Kuangfu died just like that. Bei Ya didn't solve the trouble he left behind. Are you sure you want to fight with me?"

"We'll see."

"it is good."

Min Yuanxiu responded calmly and stood there, watching people pass by him one by one, until Long Minzhi came over.

"Are you sure you want to take action?" Long Minzhi asked.

"Things have changed." Min Yuanxiu said, "His Majesty has decided not to tolerate you anymore. Take care of yourself."

--------

As soon as Gu Jingnian opened his eyes, murderous intent burst out from his eyes.

But soon, he saw that it was Gu Caiwei standing in front of him.

"Sister? What's going on?" he asked in a language that only the two of them could understand.

Gu Caiwei looked very tired, but she didn't say anything else. She only said, "Min Yuanxiu and my father were comrades in arms. Later, they had a falling out over the alien captives. When it comes to alchemy, his position can be trusted."

Having said that, she stopped Gu Jingnian who was about to speak.

"Min Yuanxiu picked me up from the Northern Courtyard because he wanted you to do something. I don't know what he wanted you to do, but I just want to remind you to protect yourself in everything you do. It's best to find a chance to escape... If you have the opportunity to ask for something, save my child first."

Gu Caiwei hesitated for a long time before speaking the last sentence.

She looked at Gu Jingnian with a complicated look, which contained concern and worry, and for the first time, there was a pleading look in her eyes.

Tears inexplicably flowed from her eyes. She wiped them away and quickly regained her strong appearance.

When Gu Jingnian saw this look, his previous attitude of fighting to the death with those mermen immediately disappeared. He made up his mind that no matter what, he would protect his sister's child.

"I got it."

He only said a few simple words, but Gu Caiwei saw his determination and murmured, "I'm afraid you'll be like this, but..."

She couldn't tell.

"Don't worry, sister."

"Ah."

There was not much time left for the brother and sister to talk, and the door was opened, revealing Min Yuanxiu's half-broken face.

"Gu Si Niang, I want to talk to your brother."

Gu Caiwei was taken away.

Gu Jingnian was thinking, since he had committed such an unforgivable crime, what else could he do to prevent Min Yuanxiu from killing him?
