'boom'!

Suddenly there was a loud noise, and the violent cyclone was running wildly, but the blue black light exploded like sparks, and the stars were so beautiful.

After that, a jade-like hand passed through the hair beside Lu Li's ear and over his shoulder, blocking the light and eliminating Ge Xinyue's palm power.

"Your Highness!"

Ge Xinyue was slightly startled and looked at the owner of that hand.

Mu Hongxiu's face was expressionless, as if she had done something insignificant, staring at the young face that was only half a foot away from her.

From this distance, she could almost feel the boy's breath coming towards her face.

Even if her identity today is not that of King Yan, or one of the most powerful masters of Mingyou in the Holy Kingdom of Swallowing Heaven, Lu Li's behavior seems to be a bit too much as an ordinary woman.

So after she stopped Ge Xinyue's palm, she lowered her gaze slightly and looked at Lu Li's right hand.

It turned out that the moment he stepped forward, he had already held the sword in his palm. Ge Xinyue thought he was crazy, so she stopped him.

"Use the hidden soldiers in my Prince Yan's treasure house to deal with me? It seems you are really crazy."

Mu Hongxiu's voice was soft and there was no hint of anger, only a hint of pity and sarcasm.

In her eyes, the young man's fierceness was just like a fly shaking a tree. Even though it was said in the world that Dacheng sword cultivators were invincible within half a foot, Mu Hongxiu had the confidence to kill any sword cultivator of the same level in the world, not to mention that the young man in front of him was just a Tongxuan with completely useless cultivation.

Lu Li tightened his grip on the sword, smiled silently, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness wants my life, why can't I risk my life?"

Mu Hongxiu slowly retracted her palm and said puzzledly: "If you didn't want to sacrifice your life to me, then you could have refused to help me solve the disaster relief issue. Could it be that your life was your life at that time, but your life is not your life now? ?”

This rather contradictory statement made Lu Li look complicated, "That day, I wanted to show my worth in exchange for my own life, but now that His Highness has told me about Prince Cang's rebellion, whether I agree or not, The end result is death, so I have no choice but to fight with His Highness."

"Just for this? I didn't give you a chance to choose, so you didn't even give up on your life?" Mu Hongxiu raised her eyebrows, both angry and funny, and looked at the young man in front of her carefully, "I thought you were a sensible little boy. Slippery, who would have thought that at the critical moment, he is actually very stubborn like those righteous disciples."

"It has nothing to do with origin."

Lu Li said sternly: "I am very insecure, so it would be best for Your Highness not to make such jokes with me in the future."

As he spoke, Lu Li let go of the hilt of his sword, and the long sword disappeared without a trace. It was obvious that he had completely refined this weapon to the point where he could send and receive it at will.

But his action made Mu Hongxiu squint her eyes and say in a cold voice: "Sheath the sword and this matter is over? Do you really think I am joking with you?"

"Your Highness, as things stand now, it's better for us to be sincere." Lu Li took a few steps back, as if he was not the one who was so cruel just now, and said with a squinted smile: "There are a lot of troubles in Prince Yan's Mansion, no matter who Yuan Jingtao is. Of all the people, you need someone of your own.”

"This person can be Crescent Moon, a secret guard, or even a leader in the Divine Power Division."

Mu Hongxiu said calmly: "Why do you do that?"

Lu Li met her eyes and said, "I can do things they can't."

"Really?" Mu Hongxiu raised her hand slightly to stop Ge Xinyue who wanted to speak out, stared at Lu Li and said: "You did a very good job in Zhen Guojin, I don't deny this. But don't forget, Machiavellian tactics and methods are too fragile in terms of absolute strength. Even if you are unparalleled in resourcefulness, you are just a staff member. Let alone me, even if Xinyue wants to kill you, your life will be over. If you don’t have the strength to protect yourself, why do you want a fair treatment?”

"What's more, without my help, you wouldn't even be able to pass the Shen family."

Mu Hongxiu said sarcastically: "Shen Fangge wants to take your life. This kind of fight between juniors has always been the default rule. No one can interfere. If you die in his hands, your pride today will be a joke."

Hearing this, Lu Li silently cupped his hands and bowed, "Then you might as well ask Your Highness to bet again."

"How to bet?" Mu Hongxiu asked with interest.

"If I die in Shen Fangge's hands, then I have nothing to say. If I am lucky enough to come back alive, please His Highness forget everything that happened today and give me a chance to choose."

Lu Li raised his head and spoke seriously.

Mu Hongxiu looked at him for a moment, then suddenly raised her hand as if she was angry, and the terrifying palm force swept away like a wave, directly knocking Lu Li out!

Lu Li took a dozen steps back in embarrassment before he stood upright. His chest felt a little tight, but he knew that Mu Hongxiu still showed mercy, and immediately said: "Thank you for not killing, Your Highness."

There was no emotion or anger in Mu Hongxiu's voice, "You don't want to sacrifice your life for me so much?"

Lu Li said without hesitation: "Although Prince Yan's Mansion is not the strongest, it is a good place to settle down. If Your Highness doesn't mind it, I will naturally contribute."

"good."

In the room, Mu Hongxiu's voice paused and said coldly: "If Shen Fangge can't kill you, I will let you enter the Shenwei Division."

"get out!"

call!

Before he could finish his words, another palm force came out and Lu Li was taken directly out of the courtyard.

When he could put some weight on his feet, Lu Li rubbed his chest, with a hint of fear on his face, and murmured: "I really saved my life."

When he was only half a foot away from Mu Hongxiu, Lu Li didn't think about using that sword.

However, he knew in his heart that even at such a close distance, coupled with the passive invisible sword energy, it was unknown whether Mu Hongxiu could be hurt. Although Mu Hongxiu did not win this huge gamble with her life, she still took half a step back.

Maybe it was because he had just accomplished a great feat, or maybe it was for Mu Ningqiu's sake. In short, the somewhat moody King Yan did not kill him, and he no longer mentioned the matter of King Cang's rebellion. This was already the best ending. .

"Rebellion is something that I cannot be involved in now." Lu Li had a headache when he thought of everything he had just heard.

If it weren't for the fact that this kind of thing could be said to change the world, and if he was not careful, he would be shattered to pieces, he would never take the risk of forcing Mu Hongxiu to retreat.

"If the struggle for imperial power really breaks out, it will be a small scene to kill everyone. With my current body, let alone running to get involved, even if I am contaminated in the slightest, I will be burned to dregs."

"but… "

Lu Li stopped and suddenly sighed, "If King Cang succeeds, Mu Ningqiu will probably die."

He can ignore others, after all, there is no friendship.

But Lu Li still couldn't be cruel to this stupid princess whom he had tricked several times.

Even if there was a prerequisite for a deal, it was a fact that he was rescued from the dark prison by Mu Ningqiu.

This kind of kindness cannot be shaken off.
