Shan Chao shook his head slowly, met Xie Yun's gaze directly, and stepped back step by step.
Suddenly he stopped, and at the very moment, he pulled forward, trying to bypass Xie Yun and rush towards the palace gate!
— Clang!
For a moment, he almost succeeded, but immediately after, Tai'a sword swooped down with a mighty force, blocking the way out!
Without saying a word, Shan Chao pushed back the half-drawn Long Yuan, met the Tai'a sword with the scabbard, and passed several moves like lightning.
He didn't dare to go head-to-head, so he could only use his skillful strength to unload the stronger power of Tai Ah's sword, waiting for the opportunity to go around Xie Yun's side. But Xie Yun was not someone he could suppress without going all out. In an instant, he had forced the whole person back more than ten steps, and slashed at Shan Chao's arm with his sword!
If Tai Ah had been severed, it would have been enough to cut a grown man in half obliquely from his shoulders, and there was absolutely no reason for him to survive.
At that moment, the passage of time became extremely slow, Shan Chao drew his sword backhand, and Long Yuan pulled out of its sheath in an instant—dang! !
The wind blade suddenly solidified, and the collision of the blades sparked a fierce flame.
Long Yuan was halfway out of the sheath, holding Tai Ah who fell from the sky!
"I can't fight with you..." Shan Chao gasped violently, his eyes fell on Xie Yun's left chest: "I can't..."
The fragments that were deliberately suppressed in the depths of memory suddenly stirred up in the overwhelming wind, overlapping with the scene incomparably similar to that in front of them, flashing back and reappearing in front of them.
——That was the nightmare of piercing the heart of the beloved with a sword on Mount Tai eight years ago.
"Then back off," Xie Yun said calmly, "No one will know that this matter is related to you, and the queen will not know that you were here today."
Shan Chao swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and said in despair: "Is this the way it must be? There is no room for redemption?"
"Redeem?" Xie Yun pointed to the closed vermilion carved palace doors on the white marble steps in the distance, and asked with a smile: "The soup given by the queen has already been sent in at this moment, how do you want to redeem it?"
Shan Chao's face changed drastically, no matter how much he cared about, Long Yuan pushed Tai'a away heavily, metal scraping made a harsh sound, and forced to rush in again!
Xie Yunfei came forward, the white buckskin boots were stepping on the line drawn by the Tai'a sword on the ground, and the long sword was like a dragon sailing out of the sea, once again forcibly blocking in front of Shan Chao!
The battle between two ancient divine swords was like a rainstorm hitting pear blossoms, and it was also like thousands of pearls falling on a jade plate, cutting thousands of air currents into sharply rotating fragments. Shan Chaoqing knew that his life was at stake at this moment, but when facing Xie Yun, he couldn't force his hand no matter what. In just a few dozen moves, he was clumsy left and right. If it wasn't for the anger that was eager to rush into the palace gate, At this moment, I can't wait to throw my sword and admit defeat.
"Kung fu has regressed a lot in the past eight years, villain."
Xie Yun raised half of his slender, black eyebrows, and his expression seemed to contain a trace of ridicule and disdain, piercing straight into Shan Chao's heart like a needle prick.
An indescribable rage welled up in Shan Chao's heart, he suddenly changed his hand, the scabbard fell down and pressed Tai Ah, firmly stuck it, and stabbed at Xie Yun!
This attack was considered superb in swordsmanship, but it used a leather sheath instead of a sword tip, and withdrew all internal strength in an instant, even if it actually hit it, it would not have any serious consequences.
An interesting smile flashed across Xie Yun's eyes. The hidden door killer skills cultivated since childhood made him look like a ghost, and he passed Long Yuan in the blink of an eye—
The sleeves of the robe fell off, the belt fluttered, and the posture was beautiful, but the killing was as swift and violent as thunder.
Taking advantage of the situation, Tai'a grabbed the white shark's scabbard and threw the whole Longyuan far away!
A smooth arc was drawn in mid-air, and then there was a bang, and Long Yuan flew out and landed in the Peony Garden in front of Hebi Palace not far away!
This move of snatching the white blade was so clean that it could be written into the sword manual. In an instant, Shan Chao's annoyance was unspeakable, and he threw himself towards the garden, and Xie Yun followed closely.
The two fell to the ground at the same time, Shan Chao reached out to grab the hilt of the sword, but Xie Yunheng grabbed his wrist.
Immediately afterwards, Xie Yun waved his hand lightly, and even threw Tai'a sword out!
"Xie Yun..." Shan Chao said hoarsely in disbelief.
Xie Yun hooked his fingers, mocking unabashedly:
"Come on, let me give you three tricks as a teacher."
·
Hebi Palace.
"—Lotus seed and lily soup?" the prince wondered.
Zhao Daosheng bent down, lowered his eyebrows and replied pleasingly: "Yes, Your Highness. The villain saw His Highness's depression piled up, and his heart was in full swing. He thought he drank two more glasses at the banquet, so he had the guts to make someone do a clear fire to relieve the alcohol." Lotus Seed Lily Soup, please take a couple of sips, Your Highness."
The crown prince took the soup bowl, and suddenly his eyes fell on Zhao Daosheng's face, and he frowned suspiciously.
There was silence in the hall, Yong Wang Li Xian gradually became uneasy: "...Brother?"
"What's your name?" the prince asked.
"The villain's surname is Zhao."
"Where is the family?"
Zhao Daosheng seemed to have paused for a moment, but it was only an extremely quick moment.
"—Reporting to the prince, the villain was sold since childhood. I don't know where his hometown is. He probably came from Shaozhou."
The prince nodded thoughtfully: "Shaozhou."
The breathing of several people rose and fell in the hall, but there was no sound other than that, and even the air gradually stagnated.
After a long time, the prince suddenly smiled:
"I heard your voice, it seems familiar, but I can't remember where I heard it..."
"...Mandarin is quite standard."
Li Xian's complexion turned pale.
"To the prince," Zhao Daosheng knelt down and pressed his hands on the gold bricks. His fingers were trembling slightly because of the excessive force, but his voice was unexpectedly steady: "After His Royal Highness took in the villain, the little one I am grateful, and I just want to serve you well, so I worked hard to practice my Mandarin accent, just begging not to embarrass His Royal Highness King Yong... "
The prince nodded absent-mindedly: "Well, it's good if you have this kind of heart."
He stirred the soup with a jade spoon, and was about to bow his head when his heart throbbed for no reason.
This feeling is inexplicably familiar to him, and it happened not long ago in a trance. That was the last time he stood with Ms. Yang, the person he loves smiled sweetly, with a flowery face so close that he could touch her vivid cheeks with his hand.
However, everything is like a flower in a mirror, and the moon suddenly wakes up with palpitations, only to realize that the floating world is just a dream, and after waking up, things are different.
How is Miss Yang doing in heaven now
Why do you think of her now
The prince pressed his heart, as if to cover up the momentary loss, he raised his head and drank the soup in one gulp.
"Brother..." Li Xian said in a daze.
The prince put down the bowl, picked up the black jade chess piece in front of him, forced a smile and said, "Which step have we reached just now, should I play it?"
Li Xian trembled all over, and got up in a panic, with a look of extreme fear in his eyes, but he couldn't say a word.
"What's the matter with you?" The prince wondered, suddenly some kind of warm liquid gushed out of his mouth and landed on the chessboard with a clatter.
It was dark red blood.
The prince stood up in shock, but before he could get up completely, he fell down, knocking over the chessboard, and the blood-stained flag rolled in all directions.
"Big... big brother," Li Xian roared heart-piercingly, "Big brother!"
·
The vigor is like an invisible knife piercing the void, peony bushes soar into the sky, and countless broken petals are scattered and scattered.
Xie Yun touched the flower branch with his toes, as light as a falling feather, and as free as an arrow, Shan Chao spurted out a mouthful of blood in the air with his palm!
Shan Chao staggered to the ground, almost without any strength to fight back, almost stepping on broken branches all over the ground and retreating repeatedly, barely holding back Xie Yun's offensive. But at the next moment, Xie Yun raised his chest like lightning and kicked Shan Chao out!
With a bang, he slammed his back against the palace wall, and that kick that contained strong internal force almost caused him to break several back ribs immediately.
"How?" Xie Yun held his collar and said condescendingly, "Did you really let you do three tricks just now?"
Shan Chao couldn't utter a single word, knowing that if Xie Yun's body hadn't been weak in recent years and his internal energy was not enough, he would have broken countless bones in his whole body at this moment.
"Are you thinking," Xie Yun whispered into Shan Chao's ear with a trace of malice in his expression, "—Master is old and overdrawn in the early years, and now he is vulnerable like a rotten tree, and can only be left to the mercy of mermaids." …”
Shan Chao panted and shook his head: "Xie Yun, listen to me."
He raised his hand, but Xie Yun gently held it down.
The palms of the two touched each other, and their fingers intertwined without a single gap.
"You may not remember, but you really never received a beating when you were in Mobei in the early years, and you didn't even receive a finger as a teacher in the years of martial arts..."
Xie Yun paused, and said leisurely: "Maybe it's because you played less that you were trained to be the traitor you are today."
Shan Chao's hand tightened suddenly, his muscles and bones burst violently, and he tightly clasped Xie Yun's slender, white hand. At the same time, he turned his face and approached Xie Yun's neck, with an uncontrollable tremor at the end: "I'm not a good apprentice, master, I still...I still love you."
There seemed to be a slight choke in his tone, and he said, "Or you can kill me."
Xie Yun was about to slap his backhand, but he grabbed it.
Shan Chao gently pushed Xie Yun away, staring at his eyes and pushing forward step by step. That was a defenseless posture at all. Xie Yun shook his hand and punched him hard and hard, causing Shan Chao to spit out a mouthful of bloody spittle.
"Do you really want to die here?" Xie Yun asked.
Shan Chao looked directly at him with calm and determined eyes.
Xie Yun sneered, leaned over and picked up the two swords, threw Long Yuan out of the scabbard and threw it to Shan Chao, and then struck at the head with one sword!
The sword's edge was only a few inches away from the neck, and the skin was already cracked and bleeding under the tyrannical sword energy. When the head was about to fall to the ground in a blink of an eye, Shan Chao finally raised his hand to block Tai Ah abruptly.
"Don't you want to die?" Xie Yun mocked, and suddenly swung his sword forward!
Xie Yun often has a frivolous feeling in his personality, but in fact, he has practiced three times in winter and three days in summer since he was a child, and his internal and external skills are extremely deep and solid. Shan Chao didn't attack, just defended blindly, connected several moves, Long Yuan's sword body clanged loudly, unexpectedly couldn't bear the gravity of Mount Tai'atai, faintly about to crack.
Xie Yun frowned slightly, he was vaguely irritated by Shan Chao's words just now, and now this kind of passive resistance made him extremely impatient, so he simply stabbed Shan Chao's heart with a sword at the moment the weapons were handed over!
The angle and timing of this sword were so wonderful that it could no longer be avoided, which was enough to force Shan Chao to change from defense to offense. In the blink of an eye, a cold light seemed to flash in Shan Chao's eyes, Long Yuan changed his angle and went straight up; however, just before the two swords were about to collide fiercely, he suddenly stopped moving.
The accident was caught off guard, and Tai Ah almost pierced Shan Chao's chest with enough force to pierce through him without any cover!
Xie Yun's face finally changed unconcealably, he stopped suddenly at the nick of time, drew his long sword back, and poured out murderous aura like a flood.
At that moment, the corner of Shan Chao's mouth moved, and the expression was so fast that one couldn't tell whether it was relief, sadness or relief.
——He finally caught Xie Yun's fleeting flaw, Long Yuan heavily suppressed Tai'a Jianfeng who was drawing back, and with this strength, he rose into the air!
The one who vowed just now only wanted to die is simply a model of bitter tricks throughout the ages.
Xie Yun was furious, and suddenly turned around, but it was too late. The moment the two passed by each other, Shan Chao said in a low voice: "I know you..." But he didn't finish his sentence, and he had already escaped several feet away.
Bang!
The door of the Hebi palace was knocked open, and at the same time, the prince fell on the gorgeous and cold golden brick floor.
His face was black and lifeless, and his wide-open eyes looked straight into the void; Shan Chao stopped suddenly, panting in disbelief.
"Come here!" Zhao Daosheng's mournful cry pierced the sky: "The prince drank the soup given by the queen of heaven, and died of poisoning!"
