The Counterattack of the Villains

After hearing what Luo Li said, Li Chungang said to Jiang Ni with a smile on his face: "Girl, what Ali said is absolutely correct."

"You can recast this half-steel ox, or you can sacrifice it and make it into a flying sword, but as a flying sword, the Great Liang Dragon Bird is more suitable."

Jiang Ni subconsciously looked at the sword box containing the Great Liang Dragon Bird. Why didn't she want this sword?

Holding this sword while fighting these past few days, I feel that it is very handy and fits her perfectly.

Often when she outputs one point of true energy, she can exert three or four points of power. If she sacrifices her own flying sword, it will definitely be stronger.

Even Luo Li said that if this sword is used as the natal flying sword, its power will never be inferior to the Tianya Sword.

But the special significance of this sword made her hesitate. She was really not optimistic about the future between herself and Xu Fengnian.

Many times, people are out of control, and things in the world will not develop according to your wishes.

She secretly glanced at Xu Fengnian, but her expression changed drastically. She pointed at him and said in horror: "You, you, you... your eyes are bleeding, and your nose is bleeding too."

Xu Fengnian raised her hand and wiped the corners of her eyes and nose. Sure enough, she wiped the blood on her hand. She couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Is this bleeding from the seven orifices? I have heard of this term, but I never thought that one day I would be able to experience it myself."

Zheng Zha said angrily: "If you continue to experience it, you should add the word 'die'. Stop talking nonsense and sit down quickly. I will help you guide your true energy. If you suffer physical pain, you can only rely on yourself."

I’m done.”

…

"Uh...uh...ah..."

There were constant screams in the carriage that upset Wei Shuyang and made Ning Emei restless.

Loli couldn't bear to see his miserable appearance, so she left the carriage early and went to the carriage behind to take care of the blue bird.

Li Chungang also couldn't help him much, so he went to sit with Wei Shuyang in the driver's seat.

Only Jiang Ni stayed in the carriage, holding Xu Fengnian tightly with red eyes and hands, giving him silent moral support.

When he was about to suffer a nervous breakdown and his consciousness became blurred, Jiang Ni choked with sobs and said to him: "No matter how painful it is, it is better than death. If you die, there will be nothing."

Hearing her words, Xu Fengnian suddenly woke up, his eyes were clear again, he gritted his teeth and nodded to her, and then let out a horrifying scream again.

Among all the people, only Pei Nanwei turned a deaf ear to the screams and stood alone, staring at the reeds in trance.

After more than three hours, the heartbreaking screams finally subsided, and Zheng Zha's reassuring words rang out in the carriage.

"Yes, you did not disappoint me after all. You have become Xiao Huangting, and you are only one step away from being a first-grade grandmaster."

Hearing this, Li Chungang opened the car curtain and looked inside with Wei Shuyang.

They saw that Xu Fengnian's clothes were soaked, his body was covered in blood, and his body was still shaking uncontrollably. Fortunately, his life was saved after all, and at the same time, he also completely used Dahuang Court for his own use.

Li Chungang also showed admiration and said with a smile: "Boy, if you can endure such pain, you are enough to impress me."

Xu Fengnian leaned against the wall of the compartment, grinned weakly at Li Chungang, and then said: "I'll take a rest first, wait until I regain some strength, and then go wash in the lake. This clothes is all sticky, it's really uncomfortable."

…

On the official road, two carriages drove slowly. After a night's rest, Xu Fengnian was back to his full glory.

As expected by Li Chungang, Xu Fengnian absorbed a total of 50% of Da Huang Ting's Qi, reached the perfection state of Xiao Huang Ting, and became a second-grade minor master.

Originally, more than 50% of his true energy was enough for him to break through to the Waihuangting, which is the first-grade Vajra realm.

Unfortunately, his physical body was not strong enough, and he was eventually stuck at the second level peak. It seemed that he was only one step away from King Kong, but this step required a lot of time to temper his physical body.

Of course, he can also skip King Kong and directly practice the Taoist Zhixuan realm, taking the route of a crispy mage with high attack and low defense.

But he doesn't want to. After all, his ultimate goal is to climb to the top step by step, and he can be called a flawless old monster.

Any flaw in oneself will become a factor of failure, so Xu Fengnian would rather spend more time and not leave any flaw or weakness for himself.

In the carriage, Xu Fengnian stroked her chin and said thoughtfully: "Little clay figurine, you said Miss Haha, are you really going to kill me for a thousand taels of gold?"

Jiang Ni asked back: "What else?"

Xu Fengnian shook his head and said, "I don't think so."

Zheng Zha echoed: "I don't think so either. With her strength, it is almost impossible for her to miss you if she attacks you unprepared for the first time."

"If she really wanted to kill you, she could just hit you on the head, but her first blow was on your chest, and the second blow was the same."

"Not only did it not kill you, but it dispersed the solid Da Huang Ting Qi in your body, giving you the opportunity to forcibly absorb it."

"Rather than saying that she wants to kill you, it's better to say that she wants to force you to become stronger quickly."

After listening to Zheng Zha's words, Xu Fengnian's eyes lit up, and the things he didn't understand suddenly became clear. He nodded in agreement, "It makes sense. This makes sense."

"I asked King Jing'an yesterday if he hired Miss Hehe. He admitted it, but refused to answer any more questions about Miss Hehe."

"Prince Jing'an never planned to kill me from the beginning, but Miss Hehe really has the ability to kill me. If he wasn't sure that Miss Hehe wouldn't kill me, how could he dare to hire her?"

Jiang Ni frowned and said: "Then the question is, who is Miss Hehe? Is she a dead soldier left by Xu Xiao or the princess, or is she a killer trained by King Jingan?"

Xu Fengnian said helplessly: "I don't know about that. If there is another chance to meet in the future, I can just ask again."

…

Xiangfan City, Li Mansion.

Li Mu and his party were drinking tea and chatting in the backyard while waiting for someone.

After they left the reed marsh, they went directly back to their mansion.

Not long after, Zhao Xun was seen striding in, dressed in armor and accompanied by his commanders and deputy commanders.

Originally, someone came to visit and the servants were asked to inform him first.

But in the entire Xiangfan City, no matter which house Zhao Xun went to, there was no notice. He always went on a rampage, including entering the room of his father, King Jing'an.

When Li Mu and his entourage saw him arriving, they all looked at each other and smiled, then stood up and prepared to greet him.

Without waiting for them to greet him, Zhao Xun waved his hand first and said: "No need to be polite, please come with me to save someone."

Li Mu pretended to be confused and asked: "Who to save?"

Zhao Xun said with an ugly face: "The assassination attempt at Luweidang failed. My father is on his way back, but... the princess didn't come back."

Li Mu pretended to be surprised and said: "What's going on?"

Zhao Xun explained: "Xu Fengnian kidnapped the princess, and my father had to let them go."

"I'm afraid now you are the only one who is confident of rescuing the princess from Xu Fengnian."

After hearing what he said, Li Mu smiled and said, "If you think so, then for everyone in the world, this is the truth of the matter."

Zhao Xun was stunned when he heard this and frowned: "Sir, what do you mean?"

Li Mu's smile did not change, and he looked at him and said, "What do I mean? Your Majesty, you don't need to delve into it, because it is meaningless to a dead person."

"puff"

While Li Mu was speaking, the commander of the soldiers behind Zhao Xun silently took out a dagger that shone with cold light.

When Li Mu finished speaking, the dagger pierced Zhao Xun's vest and pierced his heart. Fearing that he would not die quickly enough, the dagger even turned half a circle.

"Well... you... you..."

Zhao Xun's eyes widened, he staggered around and looked at the commander of the soldiers whose expression remained unchanged, his eyes filled with disbelief and confusion.

Li Muruo said nonchalantly: "The pit has been dug. It's in the back garden. We'll carry him over and bury him in a while. Remember to clean up the blood stains."

The commander of the soldiers and the deputy commander clasped their fists and bowed: "Yes, master."

Owner?

Zhao Xun seemed to understand something, but he didn't understand anything.

Li Mu then smiled at Zhang Heng and said, "Next, I have to make you my son for a while."

Zhang Heng grinned, made a seal with his hands in front of his chest, muttered a mantra in a low voice, then turned on the spot, and a white mist rose around him.

When the white mist cleared, Zhang Heng had disappeared, and another Zhao Xun appeared at the same place.

This Zhao Xun is no different from the real Zhao Xun in terms of appearance or clothing.

The "false form" in the seventy-two techniques of Disha was originally exchanged for Master Bachi so that she could become the size of a normal person, but other Zhongzhou team members also learned it.

In this fantasy world dominated by martial arts and underdeveloped magic, almost no one can see through this kind of transformation.

The only flaw is that Li Mu and Zhang Heng do not have the luck of the dynasty. After the death of Prince Jing'an and his son, their luck will dissipate.

So "almost" no one can see through it, not absolutely no one can see through it.

The Taishis in Qintianjian, who are good at looking at Qi, and the Celestial Masters in Longhu Mountain should be able to see this problem, but it is a pity that they did not have the opportunity to face Prince Jing'an and his son.

Zhao Xun, who was already lying on the ground, saw this scene and finally understood the other party's plan. Unfortunately, he could do nothing.

Soon, Zhao Xun took his last breath, and his eyes were wide open until he died.

…

After the Luweidang assassination, Xiangfan City remained in trouble.

King Jing'an still lives in seclusion as before, and the crown prince Zhao Xun also goes to the navy camp every day to practice naval training as usual, without any changes.

Not long after Xu Fengnian and his party left Xiangfan, Chu Lushan came up with his cavalry. Then, on Xu Fengnian's order, he brought Pei Nanwei back to Beiliang and placed him in Rouge County.

In another city a hundred miles away from Xiangfan, he picked up Yu Youwei, gathered the remaining sixteen soldiers of Fengzi Battalion, and headed straight for Jiangnan Road.

Along the way, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince concentrated on practicing martial arts, striving for an early breakthrough, and finally did not cause any more trouble.

At this time, all five talisman generals in red armor have been gathered together. Wei Shuyang studied the talismans on the red armor every day, first pieced together the fragments, and then copied the talisman patterns bit by bit.

As long as he completes copying the runes, recasts the five red armor fragments, and finally carves the runes on them, he will be able to obtain a complete red armor with the power of the five elements at the same time.

It's just that this seems very simple to say, but it is very difficult to do it. Wei Shuyang is afraid that he will not be able to accomplish anything in a short period of time.

After several days of training, Qingniao gradually recovered from her injuries, and she still performed her duties as a maid conscientiously and took care of Xu Fengnian's daily life.

It took less than half a month to leave Qingzhou and more than half a month to cross Yuzhou. In the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed.

After passing through the Tang and Song counties at the junction of Henan and Yangzhou, there is only Xiongbao County across from Huting County on Jiangnan Road.

Xu Fengnian lifted the car curtain and looked out. Different from Liangyong, this place followed the local customs, and the locust trees were replaced by willows on the post road.

At a glance, the view is filled with soft greenery that is refreshing and refreshing.

It's just that the scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is picturesque, and the land and water support the people. After all, the folk customs are far less fierce and martial than the barren land of Northern Liang. Even the women in Liangzhou are good at horseback riding and archery. In the palace, not to mention the outstanding swordsman Xu Weixiong and the eldest sister Xu.

He is as skilled with a bow and horse as a fat tiger.

A few years ago, it was said that an official woman from Northern Liang married into the south of the Yangtze River and traveled with her husband through the mountains and rivers. They met a group of robber thieves who were cutting paths. As a result, the man hid and burst into tears. It was actually the woman who went into battle in person and killed the robber thieves with a knife. It was rumored that it was a joke.

.

Xu Fengnian put down the curtain and said with a sarcastic face: "On the six arts of a gentleman, if we only talk about shooting and driving, the men here are probably not as good as us Beiliang women. It's really ridiculous."

"I would like to see this group of Jiangnan moral gentlemen who are known as the best in the world in their writing and calligraphy skills."

Zheng Zha said seriously: "Don't underestimate these so-called moral gentlemen. Sometimes a pen knife can kill people, but it is no worse than a steel knife."

Xu Fengnian shook his head and said: "The pen knife is indeed scary, but if a pen knife user encounters a steel knife user, there will be only one way to die."

Zheng Zha raised his eyebrows, looked at him and said, "What do you mean, do you plan to show off your knife in Jiangnan Road?"

Xu Fengnian's eyes flashed with murderous intent. He did not answer his words, but asked bluntly: "Do you dare?"

Zheng Zha laughed and said, "Are you kidding me? When we travel in the world, we must pay attention to four words: lawlessness. As long as you dare to speak, I will kill you and turn the world upside down."

"I still don't believe it. Wherever I go I can meet such masters as King Jing'an. Do you really think that the land gods are just cabbage?"

Xu Fengnian said happily: "Okay, as long as you dare to chop, we will let these moral gentlemen in Jiangnan, who can only play with pens and knives, see what lawlessness means."

As soon as he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed and he subconsciously grabbed it with his backhand.

"Snapped"

Xu Fengnian felt a pain in the palm of his hand and immediately turned his head to look around, only to see Li Chungang leaning against the compartment wall and sleeping soundly, while Jiang Ni was sitting cross-legged and meditating with his eyes closed. There was nothing unusual.

There were only four people in the carriage. He and Li Mu were sitting near the curtain at the front of the carriage, and behind them were Li Chungang and Jiang Ni.

He looked at Zheng Zha opposite him, only to see him smiling and saying nothing, as if he didn't know anything.

Seeing this, Xu Fengnian knew that there was no danger, so he opened his palm and looked at it, only to see that what he grabbed was a copper coin.

He immediately looked suspiciously at Jiang Ni, who was three feet away from him. Was it her fault?

But even though he didn't look at her just now, he could still see her from the corner of his eye. If she made any move, he would definitely notice it.

However, Jiang Ni had clearly been meditating without any movement.

Inexplicably, he turned back to look at Zheng Zha and asked in confusion: "What's going on?"

Although he turned his head, this time he focused on the corner of his eye.

Before Zheng Zha had time to answer, Xu Fengnian suddenly raised his hand and slapped his side, pressing down a copper coin that was shot at the side of his butt.

He suddenly turned his head to look at Jiang Ni, feigning anger and said: "It's you who did it. Stop pretending. If you pretend again, I will count you two failed assassinations and fine you two sums of money."

Jiang Ni finally lost control and opened his eyes, stared at Xu Fengnian and shouted, "If you dare, stab you to death."

The two of them stared at each other with big eyes, and after a few breaths, they both laughed inexplicably.

"Congratulations, you have mastered the art of repelling objects, and you are one step closer to becoming a female sword fairy."
