The wind and snow continue.
There was a sudden silence in the courtyard.
The young man stood in the middle of the courtyard, still with that familiar face, but with that strange and unique temperament that could not be concealed even by the cold wind and snow.
In the corridor.
Luo Yannian slowly clenched the fist in his sleeve.
Wang's face suddenly became extremely gloomy, and her voice suddenly rang out sharply: "Little bastard, how did you get in?"
Luo Qingzhou said calmly, "Walk in. Can you two answer my question?"
Wang sneered and said, "Isn't it a relief that your bitch mother is dead? It should be a good thing for you, right? If that lowly thing who was fickle, who was ridden by thousands of people and humiliated by tens of thousands of people, was alive, wouldn't you, the good son-in-law of the Qin family, the senior master of the Juren, be laughed at as a little bastard all day long? How can she still have the face to live when she doesn't even know which man her son belongs to?"
Luo Qingzhou looked at her and said, "Wang Yun, how can you live on? Your son died in your arms, and someone cut off his head in front of you, with blood all over your face, but you don't know who the murderer is, and you can't avenge him. What else can you do all day except crying uselessly in the dead of night and saying you miss him? You are enjoying yourself as a noble lady in this mansion, but you have forgotten your son who is still buried in the earth with his head and body separated and being eaten by maggots. You are worse than a dog. At least when a dog feels useless, it will bark at the door a few times. What about you?"
"Little bastard! You..."
Wang was so angry that she was shaking all over. She gnashed her teeth and screamed, "Someone! Someone! Chop this little bastard into pieces and feed it to the dogs!"
But there was silence outside the door and no one came in.
There was only the sound of wind blowing the snowflakes past.
Wang looked at the door in a daze, and suddenly felt a chill rising from the soles of her feet to her forehead.
Luo Yannian, who was standing next to him, looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar young man in the courtyard with a stern expression, and suddenly asked, "How do you know the circumstances of Yu'er's murder?"
Luo Qingzhou looked at him and said calmly, "Luo Yannian, when you killed my mother, you probably never thought that your beloved son would be beaten to a pulp and then have his head cut off in front of you, right?"
Luo Yannian clenched his fists, his robes bulged, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes: "Little beast, I will kill you first! Then I will kill the Qin family!"
After saying that, he rushed over with a "whoosh" sound, and then "bang!", and suddenly punched him in the face.
Snowflakes were flying, and a sharp whistling sound suddenly sounded in the air!
This punch is as powerful as a thousand pounds!
"boom!"
Luo Qingzhou, dressed in a Confucian robe, stood still. Seeing him punching at him, he did not dodge or avoid. Suddenly, he raised his fist, and the fist flashed, and with a "bang", it hit his fist heavily!
"Kachcha!"
There was a sound of bones breaking.
Luo Yannian's tall body suddenly flew backwards, and his entire arm suddenly shrank back, and was directly turned around by the hit. The muscles on his arm exploded with a "bang"!
"Bang!"
He fell heavily back into the corridor, his entire arm was torn into pieces, blood and flesh were splattered, and one could actually see the white bones inside!
A piercing pain came over me!
He just glanced at his arm, then the muscles on his face twitched, and he looked at the young man who was still standing in the courtyard, motionless, in disbelief.
The wind and snow continue.
The young man's robe fluttered slightly, and his face was still that familiar and indifferent, but at this moment, it became so strange.
He felt like he was dreaming.
And Wang, who was standing next to him, had a dumbfounded expression.
The whole courtyard suddenly became deathly silent.
The area beneath Luo Yannian's body soon turned into a pool of blood.
He lay there with his lips trembling. For a moment, his mind was blank. He was still looking at the figure in the courtyard who was supposed to be a weak scholar, with a dull expression on his face.
"Luo Yannian."
Luo Qingzhou unclenched his fists, and walked slowly towards him in the wind and snow: "Now, you should know the answer, right? You made me lose my mother, so I will make you lose your beloved son. Of course, this is far from enough."
Wang's face suddenly twisted and trembled as she said, "Impossible! Impossible! You are clearly a weak scholar. When I bullied your mother and you, you had no power to resist at all. How could you be a warrior? Who taught you? The Qin family? Impossible! It is impossible for you to have such skills so quickly. You didn't practice martial arts in the Qin family! You... you..."
Luo Qingzhou looked at her calmly. He raised his finger and a flying sword circled around him. Then with a "swish", it cut off the crown of a big tree next to him and flew back into his hand in an instant.
“Wow!”
The treetops fell to the ground, splashing snow all over the ground.
Luo Qingzhou looked at her and said, "Wang Yun, this scene should be familiar to you, right? Your son's head fell off in the same way. You should still remember it clearly in your mind, right?"
"ah-"
Wang screamed suddenly, as if she had gone crazy, her face was distorted, her eyes were red, and she pounced on him with her teeth and claws bared.
"Bang!"
Luo Qingzhou kicked her in the stomach, sending her flying and landing heavily next to Luo Yannian. "Don't worry, more pain is yet to come. Last time, I cut off your son's head in front of you. Now, I'm going to cut off your husband's head in front of you... I really want to see you screaming at the top of your lungs and in excruciating pain. I believe my mother is watching you, too."
He took out a dagger and walked towards the two men as he spoke.
Wang spat out blood, her face was pale, and she gritted her teeth and said, "You beast! You little beast! You will not die well!"
Luo Qingzhou stopped in front of Luo Yannian, looked at him and said, "Luo Yannian, you insulted my mother and killed her with them. Today, I will cut off your head and dig out your heart to offer sacrifice to my mother's spirit in heaven!"
“Swish!”
Just as he was about to raise the dagger in his hand, a figure suddenly rushed in from the doorway, arrived in an instant, and then "bang" punched him in the back!
Luo Qingzhou suddenly turned around and threw a punch, which collided heavily with the fist.
"Bang!"
A huge force was transmitted through the arms!
Luo Qingzhou's arm shook violently, and his whole body flew backwards, directly into the house, smashing the table in the room, and fell to the ground in a mess.
He immediately jumped up from the ground and looked outside.
On the steps under the corridor stood a short, pale-faced old man in eunuch's uniform, staring at him coldly. When he saw him stand up, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face, and he said in a sharp voice: "Good boy, you can stand up safely after receiving a punch from me. You really have some skills. With the cultivation of a late martial artist, you have such strength. No wonder you dare to break into the Earl of Zhongwu's mansion alone. But, boy, you are in big trouble today. I happen to be here, so just lie down obediently."
Wang immediately fell to the ground with a face full of resentment and screamed, "Eunuch Sun, beat this little bastard to a pulp! I will cut him into pieces with my own hands!"
"Great martial artist?"
Luo Qingzhou looked at the old eunuch outside the door, narrowed his eyes, and suddenly his figure flashed and flew onto the roof.
"Want to run?"
The old eunuch rushed in with a whoosh, jumped onto the roof, and rushed towards the big hole that had just appeared on the roof.
Unexpectedly, when his head got into the big hole, a large amount of lime suddenly fell down with a "puff" sound!
He didn't know what it was and didn't dare to take it head-on, so he punched it immediately and his body fell rapidly. After breaking up the powder, he jumped up again!
This set of movements is so smooth and fast that it takes almost the blink of an eye!
But when he jumped onto the roof, he found that the young man had already escaped and disappeared!
Just as he was about to chase him, he lowered his head and glanced into the house. He could only snort coldly, and in a flash, he jumped down from the eaves. He looked at Luo Yannian in the corridor and said, "Lord Luo, the boy ran away, but all the guards in your house have been killed, and the maids and servants have been knocked unconscious. There may be other assassins, so we dare not leave. Hurry up and call Commander Luo and the Jinyiwei to search everywhere."
Luo Yannian felt severe pain in his arm, his face turned pale, and he could not speak.
Wang on the side hurriedly took out a jade pendant from her arms and suddenly threw it to the ground with a "bang".
The jade pendant flashed and shattered into pieces in an instant.
Wang cried, "Master, you will be fine. Changtian will be back soon... We already know that the little bastard is the murderer. We must let Changtian cut him into pieces and kill everyone in the Qin Mansion. No one should be spared!"
Luo Yannian's body trembled, his expression complicated, and he still murmured in disbelief: "How could that little beast... How could he be a warrior?"
At this time, it was already evening.
Outer city, Eighteen Lanes in the south of the city.
In the Dao Mansion, Luo Changtian was standing in the yard, holding a golden sword in his hand. Under the sword was a man with his hands bound, skin torn, and disheveled hair.
Under the eaves opposite, was Sister Dao with tears on her face.
Sister Dao stood there, holding her broadsword in her hand, looking at the scene in front of her with a determined look.
Twenty fully armed Jinyiwei were standing in the yard, looking eager.
The blade in Luo Changtian's hand had already landed on Dao Chengkong's neck. He looked at the girl under the eaves with a cold gaze and said, "There is still one stick of incense left. I hope you can think it over carefully. Do you want to tell me the truth, or do you want to see your father's head chopped off in front of you, with blood all over the yard?"
Sister Dao clenched the knife in her hand with trembling hands, looked at him resolutely, and said nothing.
Dao Chengkong, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly raised his head and said weakly: "Ling'er, don't risk your life for Daddy. You are a disciple of Lingxiao Sect, they dare not kill you. Go away, and come back later to collect Daddy's body. Daddy's death is not a pity, and you don't have to feel guilty, and don't accompany Daddy because of guilt..."
"Daddy taught you to value friendship since you were young. You have done very well. Daddy is proud of you. After Daddy leaves, you can go to Lingxiao Sect. Daddy has only one wish, I hope you can find a good family to marry before you turn 20."
At this point, he was silent for a moment, and then continued: "You have given so much to that boy, it seems that you have more than just a friendship with him. It doesn't matter, Dad has figured it out. As long as you really like him and as long as he treats you well, even if you do his..."
“Daddy!”
Dao Jie suddenly cried, "I will never become a concubine even if I die! I will not betray him, and I will never watch my father being killed by them. I have no way to repay my father for raising me. Today, I will die with him!"
After he finished speaking, the broadsword in his hand hummed and a blade light flashed.
She said with a determined look on her face: "Today, I will kill at least a few lackeys of the imperial court to bury them with us, father and daughter!"
The Jinyiwei all around drew out the swords at their waists!
A cold light flashed in Luo Changtian's eyes, and he raised the golden sword in his hand and pointed it at Dao Chengkong's neck.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the door: "What are you doing? In this bright and clear world, in the prosperous era of Great Yan, there are still people who break into private houses and gather to kill people? They don't even have the laws of Great Yan in their eyes!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone turned to look.
Nangong Meijiao, wearing a purple dress and with a whip wrapped around her waist, walked in from the door with a young woman and an old woman, with a grim look on her face.
Luo Changtian narrowed his eyes and said, "Princess, Dao Chengkong is a murderer and fugitive. You should know this better than me, right?"
Nangong Meijiao looked at him and said, "What do you mean by murderer on the run? What do you mean I know more than you? Luo Changtian, don't slander me! Where is the evidence of his murder? Show me the evidence!"
Luo Changtian said coldly: "Of course there is evidence, but it is in the government office. If the princess wants to see it, she can go and see it anytime."
Nangong Meijiao crossed her arms and said, "Sorry, I want to see it now, otherwise, I will not allow you to kill people at will! I say you are a murderer and I have evidence. The evidence is in the government office. I will kill you now, do you agree?"
Luo Changtian gripped the hilt of the knife and said, "We are the Jinyiwei. As long as we have evidence, we can kill the fugitive on the spot according to the law. This is the right given to us by the emperor! I advise the princess not to meddle in other people's business."
Nangong Meijiao walked up to him and snorted, "I want to intervene, what can you do to me? Do you dare to kill me? Even if I report it to His Majesty, I will be right! I was bored and wandering around, and suddenly I saw a robber breaking into a house, killing people lawlessly, but without any evidence. I saw injustice and roared, whipped my whip to help. Is this wrong? I believe that if His Majesty knew about it, he would not blame me, right?"
Luo Changtian said coldly: "We are Jinyiwei, not robbers!"
Nangong Meijiao stared at him and blinked: "Jinyiwei? Sorry, this princess doesn't know them. You can't say that you are wearing Jinyiwei clothes. Even if you are Jinyiwei, as for the waist badge and so on, you can also fake it. Unless you can call the people from the government office and bring evidence that Dao Chengkong is a murderer and fugitive, otherwise, this county supervisor will make the decision on this matter!"
After that, he turned to look at the old woman behind him and said, "Ninth Aunt, with your strength as a great martial artist, can you deal with so many bandits?"
Ninth Madam looked around and said, "The other bandits are no problem, but the bandit leader in front of you, I'm afraid, may be a little difficult. I may not be able to defeat him..."
“It’s useless!”
Nangong Meijiao muttered something, then quickly pulled out the whip from her waist, looked at Luo Changtian in front of her and said, "It doesn't matter. I don't think he dares to fight to the death, let alone kill the royal princess in this capital!"
Luo Changtian stared at her coldly and said, "Are you stalling for time, Princess? Even if you delay until tomorrow, Dao Chengkong will still be a murderer and fugitive, and no one can save him!"
After that, he said to the Jinyiwei next to him: "Go to the government office and bring over the case files of Lord Su and Dao Chengkong and the evidence of the murder, so that the princess can have a good look!"
"Yes, sir!"
The Jinyiwei agreed and was about to go out immediately.
Nangong Meijiao suddenly shouted coldly: "Ninth Madam, stop him! Without the order of this princess, none of these bandits can go out and inform other bandits!"
Ninth Nanny's figure flashed and blocked the way of the Jinyiwei.
Luo Changtian's face suddenly became gloomy and he asked: "Princess, what do you want?"
Nangong Meijiao looked at him and said, "Don't worry. This princess will definitely not let your people go out. As for calling Lord Su and the case file, leave it to my people."
Then, he said to the young woman behind him: "Auntie Mu, you go to the government office. Remember, be careful of robbers on the road. You must see everyone on the road clearly and move forward carefully. Don't be rash and walk too fast. Do you understand?"
Aunt Mu suppressed her laughter and said respectfully, "Yes, Miss."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Luo Changtian clenched his fists, a fierce look flashed in his eyes, and when he was about to speak, his body suddenly shook and his face changed!
He pulled out a jade pendant from his arms.
Many cracks suddenly appeared on the surface of the jade pendant, and then with a "click" sound, it broke into pieces!
He was startled and immediately put away the golden knife in his hand. He shouted coldly to the Jinyiwei around him: "You stay here and keep an eye on the prisoner. I will be back soon! Remember, no one is allowed to take him away! Otherwise, I will kill you without mercy! If anything goes wrong, this commander will be responsible!"
"Yes, sir!"
All the Jinyiwei immediately responded in unison.
Luo Changtian's face was gloomy. His figure flashed and he instantly walked out of the door and disappeared.
Nangong Meijiao did not stop him, but just frowned slightly, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
The gaze returns to the Earl of Zhongwu's Mansion.
After breaking the jade pendant, Wang immediately went into the house to get the medicine box and bandaged the injured Luo Yannian.
The old eunuch stood under the eaves, looking around vigilantly, not moving a step away.
But at this moment, a figure suddenly walked in slowly in the wind and snow outside the door.
He was dressed in a Confucian robe, had a tall figure, a handsome face, and a cold and calm gaze. It turned out to be the young man who had escaped just now. He has returned!
When the old eunuch saw this scene, he was stunned for a moment, and an expression of surprise and confusion appeared on his face.
Luo Yannian's body stiffened.
Wang trembled, and immediately gnashed her teeth and said, "Eunuch Sun! That little bastard is back again! Kill him! Kill him quickly!"
This time, Luo Qingzhou didn't say anything nonsense. With a "boom", all the internal force in his Danhai was poured into his arms. The lightning in the root of the thunder spirit also poured into his fist with a "swish"!
"Sizzle..."
On the fist, golden light flashed, lightning was wrapped around, and there was a crackling sound!
The old eunuch looked at this scene and suddenly smelled his martial artist aura. His face suddenly changed and he screamed in disbelief: "Great... Great Martial Master!"
"boom!"
Luo Qingzhou was in front of him in an instant, with light bursting out from his fist and lightning surging, and he suddenly smashed it towards his face!
A terrifying aura and pressure instantly enveloped the entire courtyard!
Luo Yannian and Wang, who were sitting on the ground, were unable to open their eyes because of the dazzling light. Their faces changed drastically due to the crushing majesty, and their hearts and livers were broken!
"boom!"
There was a loud bang, shaking the earth!
The entire Earl Zhongwu's Mansion was shaken suddenly!
The old eunuch who possessed the strength of a great martial artist was actually knocked flying by a single punch, breaking the column behind him, smashing the wall behind him, and flying into the house!
The huge fist light and the terrifying blast instantly blew the house into pieces, causing it to collapse!
The old eunuch was buried directly in the ruins of the collapsed house and disappeared without a trace.
Luo Yannian and Wang, who were sitting under the eaves, were also hit on the head and bleeding, with half of their bodies buried...
