The Counterattack of the Villains

After Ning Emei and Fengziying returned to the team, Xu Fengnian did not delay any more and gave the order to set off early the next morning.

However, he specially asked Jin Lanting for a carriage specifically to carry the two sets of red armor of the Talisman General.

Each of these armored stomachs weighs hundreds of kilograms, and the weight of two of them is almost the same as four or five more people. Putting it in two carriages is too energy-consuming.

So he asked for an extra carriage specifically to transport the two red armors.

When the team left Yingrong County, no civil or military officials came to see them off because of Xu Fengnian's cold behavior, which had never been seen before, and Ning Emei's domineering style of attacking whenever they disagreed.

Zheng Hanhai, the head of the civil service, was ill, and Gu Jiantang's old men in Tangyin Mountain remained silent and did not dare to show their faces. Only Jin Lanting, the owner of the house, sent him outside the city gate with a sad face.

Shortly after Xu Fengnian and his party left, the new prefect Yingrong arrived, bringing with him news that made Jin Lanting feel like he was falling into a dream.

Xu Xiao, the king of Northern Liang, wrote a letter of recommendation in his own handwriting, recommending him to go to the capital to be the Huangmen Minister, which was equivalent to giving him two promotions in a row.

When he heard the news, Jin Lanting was completely stunned. His biggest wish in his life was to go to the capital and become an official.

It is a great honor for a Qingliu scholar to be the assistant minister of Huangmen. The Huangmen and Huangmen are the only way to become a bachelor in the future.

Zhang Julu, the current chief assistant, calls himself the lackey of the old master's family, but hasn't he just been dormant in the noble position of Huangmen's minister for sixteen years?

When scholars from Shangyin Academy entered the capital, their first choice was always the Small and Yellow Gates. How lucky was he, Jin Lanting, that he suddenly jumped into the blessed land known as Xiaolong Pavilion.

Jin Lanting suddenly remembered the two geese that were slaughtered by Xu Fengnian. After eating his two geese, he was promoted to two levels in a row. Is the Prince of Northern Liang so willful?

Jin Lanting had mixed feelings in his heart, but he still silently faced Beiliang, clasped his fists and bowed deeply.

…

More than a hundred miles away from Yingrong County is the world-famous Taoist mountain Qingcheng Mountain.

There were no towns within this hundred miles for rest. In order not to sleep in the wilderness, Xu Fengnian and his party went straight to Qingcheng Mountain without stopping.

Qingcheng Mountain has sixty-four peaks, large and small, and the peaks surround it like a city. The ancient trees are green all year round, and there is a lot of greenery, so it is named Qingcheng.

There are three wonderful scenic spots in Yongzhou. The easternmost one is the Westward Sword Pavilion, which is said to have a sword from the east and was struck by it. It is the most dangerous. The southern one is the Kuimen Pass where it is said that a saint rode an ox. It is unparalleled in majesty. The third one is

Qingcheng Mountain, a famous Taoist mountain blessed by a Qingcheng king.

This place was originally a cave on the Nine Dou Rice Road. The master of the Qingyang Palace who was granted the title of King of Qingcheng by the old emperor was actually a Taoist priest from the Longhu Zhengyi Sect, so he was considered a magpie's nest.

He drove away all the popular Jiudou Mi Road, leaving only one Qingyang Palace in the top spot. Therefore, the green and stretching Qingcheng Mountain is now experiencing a sharp decline in incense every year, and it is much deserted compared to other famous mountains. It is really inconsistent with the famous name of Qingcheng Mountain.

The only thing that never comes singly is that there are fewer visitors, but there are more grass bandits who have taken over the mountain as kings. A group of stragglers are wandering around, claiming the title of king together with the King of Qingcheng, and it is very troublesome for the officials to kill them.

Even with a lot of money, even if there were old hunters in the mountains who were willing to take risks and lead the way, they would often fall short. After several twists and turns, the county guard saw that the master of the Qingyang Palace was not grateful and let it go. He actually beat him up and said that the government was causing trouble in this clean land

Incessant noise.

The county governor was so angry that he was even more unwilling to waste money and people. Unless they were well fed, the dignitaries who came to Qingcheng Mountain to explore the secluded scenery and enjoy the scenery were unfortunately robbed. They were forced to send troops into the mountain under pressure. They ignored the ordinary people who were in danger.

The government is just waiting for Qingcheng Mountain to turn into a dead mountain and a dead city. It's up to you, the King of Qingcheng, who has no name but how to maintain the reputation.

"Shu Sha, there is an abandoned Taoist temple a mile further up. Go and investigate first." Xu Fengnian ordered to Shu Sha on the mountain road.

"yes."

Shu Sha accepted the order and left, then returned in a moment and reported: "Reporting to the Crown Prince, there is indeed an empty Taoist temple with nothing to do."

Xu Fengnian nodded, took the lead, and soon arrived at the Taoist temple.

Standing in front of the Taoist temple, Jiang Ni asked Xu Fengnian curiously: "How do you know there is a Taoist temple here?"

Xu Fengnian pretended to be profound and said: "I can count with my fingers."

Jiang Ni rolled his eyes and said without sincerity: "That's really awesome."

Zheng Zha smiled and said, "You must have been here before, right?"

Xu Fengnian nodded and said, "I've been here before. I lived here with Lao Huang for a while three years ago. I couldn't find firewood at that time, so I cut down all the trees in the backyard to make a fire."

During the first three years of traveling, he and Lao Huang came to live in this Taoist temple. As a result, they encountered a group of bandits and were chased half the mountain.

But later they discovered that the so-called mountain bandits were actually old and young. They turned out to be a group of mountain people who could not survive and were forced to become bandits.

Although they became bandits and engaged in the business of cutting and robbing roads, what was rare was that they still maintained their kind nature and never killed anyone but only robbed money.

Seeing that Xu Fengnian and Lao Huang were very hungry at that time, he gave them half a roast chicken. Later, everyone became friends and stuffed them with a lot of food when they left.

Today, when Xu Fengnian revisits her old place, she just wants to see these silly bandits and those good friends who are affectionate and righteous.

Xu Fengnian entered the Taoist temple with familiarity and said: "Shushan, go catch some game."

Shu shyly responded, his figure disappeared into the forest in a flash, and quickly disappeared.

Compared to Lu Qiantang, Shu Xian's Qing Gong was better, and he was full of heresy, which made him more suitable for hunting.

Shu Sha didn't really care about Xu Fengnian treating her as a handyman. It was better than letting her fight for her life.

Just like the last time when Fu Jiang's red-armored men attacked, if Zheng Zha and Luo Li's couple hadn't taken action, if she and Lu were allowed to go to Qiantang, they would have narrowly escaped death.

…

The group of people took a break at the Taoist temple. At night, a group of bandits came, but unfortunately they were not the friends Xu Fengnian was expecting.

After easily capturing the bandits, Xu Fengnian asked them that all his friends had fallen into the hands of Qingcheng King Wu Lingsu.

The reason was that Wu Lingsu captured a girl named Xiaoqueer among the bandits, and it was rumored that Wu Lingsu was good at picking up yin and replenishing yang.

The bandits headed by Lao Mengtou went to Qingyang Palace on Qingyang Peak to ask for someone, but they never came back.

This immediately angered Xu Fengnian, and early the next morning, he led all his troops and went straight to Qingyang Palace.

There is a stone tablet erected on the left side of the mountain gate of Qingyang Palace, which reads "The Duke dismounts his horse". However, both Xu Fengnian and Zheng Zha and others turned a blind eye to it and sat on the horse calmly, with no intention of dismounting.

They went up the mountain in such a mighty manner, which naturally alarmed the people in Qingyang Palace.

When they arrived outside the mountain gate, a group of women wearing white clothes and blue gauze, holding long swords, poured down like a tide. After careful counting, there were exactly thirty-six people.

Thirty-six Kun Dao people formed three groups and five groups, each occupying a position and setting up a sword formation on the stone steps.

The leader, a middle-aged female champion in her forties, stood in front of the other thirty-five female champions, looking at Xu Fengnian and his party with an arrogant expression.

Xu Fengnian leaned slightly and asked Zheng Zha in a low voice: "What kind of formation is this? It looks interesting."

Zheng Zha said disdainfully: "The Thirty-six Tiangang Shenxiao Sword Formation is a mess. Compared with the 'Zhuxian Sword Formation' of Ali's sect, it is just a child's play."

Wei Shuyang and others who heard what he said were secretly speechless.

He speaks "Zhu Xian" without fear of offending the immortals in the upper realm. This shows that this formation is definitely extraordinary.

Xu Fengnian's eyes also lit up, and then asked: "What kind of Shenxiao Sword Formation is this? You should be able to break it, right?"

Zheng Zha said calmly: "It's a matter of one sword."

He was Xu Fengnian's courage. With his words, Xu Fengnian no longer had any scruples. He raised his head arrogantly and asked the group of female crowns: "Where is Wu Lingsu?"

The female crowns were furious when they heard this. Although King Qingcheng was just an idle prince with no military power or fiefdom, he was still a king with a different surname, and he was on the same level as Xu Xiao.

After all, he is also an elder of Xu Fengnian. He calls him by his first name, which obviously does not take Qingyang Palace seriously at all.

The leader, Nu Guan, glanced at the stone tablet "The Duke dismounted his horse" beside the mountain gate, then looked at Xu Fengnian coldly and said: "Look at this stone tablet, the late emperor wrote, no matter who you are, dismount your horse and speak."

Xu Fengnian glanced sideways, but the body on the horse did not move at all, and said with disdain: "This word is not very good."

After speaking, he tilted his head and looked at the leading female champion with a provocative face.

The leader, the female crown, could no longer suppress the anger in her heart and said in a cold voice: "Looking for death."

She turned around and used Qinggong, flew into the center of the formation, and shouted: "Start the formation."

The so-called Shenxiao is the highest among the Nine Heavens. It accumulates clouds and forms a sky. It is held by Gangqi and can hold ten thousand junctures. Immortals use the Nine Heavens Xuansha as a sword. The sword rains down millions of miles, and no one in the world can stop it.

After the Shenxiao Sword Formation was set up, the thirty-six female crowns' qi machines merged into one, and a powerful aura surged up into the sky. At this moment, the qi machines circulated in the sword formation, and the thirty-six people were like one person.

The next moment, all the female crowns threw their long swords into the air one after another. Thirty-six long swords were suspended in the air. Lightning fell from the sky and hit the long swords. The long swords were entangled with electric snakes, intertwined with each other, and presented a monstrous scene.

Shu Sha, Wei Shuyang, Lu Qiantang, Yu Youwei and others looked at the terrible scene in front of them and secretly trembled in their hearts.

They had never seen the Immortal Killing Sword Formation before, and they didn't know how terrifying it was.

But the momentum displayed by the Shenxiao Sword Formation made it almost impossible for them to resist.

A group of female crowns whose cultivation level is only at the third level, plus a second-level little grandmaster to lead the formation, have actually exerted the power of the celestial realm. It has to be said that there is something special about this Qingyang Palace.

Xu Fengnian looked at Zheng Zha subconsciously, but saw that he still had a look of indifference on his face, and said contemptuously: "It's so fancy, but it's not vulnerable to a single blow."

As he spoke, he was about to pull out the Northern Liangdao from his waist, but suddenly he heard Loli's voice behind him: "Play with thunder and lightning in front of me, big pig head, let me do it this time."

Hearing what she said, Zheng Zhashi quickly inserted the knife he had just pulled out a foot back, turned around and said with a smile: "Don't make the scene too big, so as not to scare some people."

Luo Li giggled, jumped from the carriage driver's seat into the air, and said, "I'll try to keep it as tight as possible."

Seeing Luo Li take action, everyone in the team, from Li Chungang and Xu Fengnian to Ning Emei and the soldiers of Bai Fengzi Battalion, all stared at her petite figure.

Jiang Ni was even more excited, because she would also have the opportunity to master the methods used by Luo Li at this moment.

On the other side of the female crown, seeing that the person coming to break into the battle was actually a young and beautiful woman, everyone couldn't help but feel disdainful.

However, when they discovered that the beautiful young woman did not fall after jumping into the air, but was just hanging in the air, they were shocked and turned pale, knowing that they had made a mistake.

Loli jumped into the air and was level with the long swords flying in the sky, flashing with thunder and lightning.

The next moment, she pointed her slender hand toward the sky, and everyone saw only a stream of blue light flying out from her hand, turning into a long sword with a gorgeous shape in the sky, with sky-blue light flowing throughout its body.

This sword is very famous in the Zhuxian world, second only to the Zhuxian sword.

It's called Tianya, and it was supposed to be Lu Xueqi's personal sword. When Luo Li worshiped at the Qingyun Sect, Master Shuiyue had not yet passed this sword to Lu Xueqi, and then she completely missed it.

It is different from the fact that the Central Continent team did not have a captain in the early stage, so Loli did not need to follow her into the world of reincarnation and adventure, so it was delayed a lot of time.

The clone Loli followed the clone Zheng Zha and entered the world of reincarnation together from the moment she joined the Demon Team.

She has come all the way from the martial arts world, and under the care of Zheng Zha, she will naturally not be short of many spiritual objects or techniques that can improve her qualifications.

Therefore, the clone Loli's qualifications are not inferior to Lu Xueqi's at all, and because she refined a body of true energy in the early stage, her early cultivation speed was extremely fast.

In addition, her personality is very lovable, completely different from the frosty Lu Xueqi, and she is even more loved by Master Shuiyue.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Master Shuiyue finally gave the Tianya Sword to Luo Li.

After obtaining the Tianya Sword, Zheng Zha spent a lot of resources to upgrade it, and after long-term cultivation by Luo Li, the Tianya Sword is now an immortal sword that is not weaker than the acquired spiritual treasure level.

When Li Chungang saw Luo Li sacrificing the Tianya Sword, his eyes immediately froze, and he said in disbelief: "This is...a true fusion of man and sword? How is it done?"

Xu Fengnian was also stunned and said: "What kind of job is this?"

Everyone else had expressions of disbelief on their faces, some having difficulty understanding what they saw.

The world in the snow is a fantasy world dominated by martial arts. Although there are also methods such as sword control, it is fundamentally different from the world of Xianxia.

Apart from anything else, this method of incorporating weapons into the body does not exist in this world. Even Lu Zu had to carry the sword on his back.

Therefore, even Li Chungang had a hard time understanding Luo Li's skills. How could such a big sword be put into his body?

He was stunned for only a moment before he thought of "that place" and was relieved.

Even resurrecting people from the long river of time and space can be done there, no matter how magical the means are, it is not surprising.

Presumably Ali's training and all her skills come from that place.

However, it was said that after Luo Li sacrificed the Tianya Sword, the divine sword flew over her head for a week, and then fell into Luo Li's palm with the hilt facing down.

Everyone saw her taking seven steps in the air, stabbing the sky with the long sword in her hand, and chanting a mantra: "The Nine Heavens Mysterious Temple turns into divine thunder, and the brilliant power of heaven is used to attract it with the sword."
