Tome of Troubled Times

Chapter 375: Passing across

Views:

"Clang!" Tang Wanzhuang's beautiful eyes were still looking at Zhao Changhe, but it was as if she had eyes behind her back. She thrust her sword backwards, just in time to deflect Lu Shiheng's sneak attack.

Zhao Changhe was also looking at her, and he swept the Dragon Bird in his hand, slashing it across Ci Xiu's chest.

Both of them felt extremely insulted.

What's your attitude

Tang Wanzhuang is fine, after all, she is ranked third on the Earth List and is well-known throughout the world. She has the right to look down on the Human List. Although there is Maitreya attacking her, at least Tang Wanzhuang has won three battles in a row, so it is normal for her to be a little proud.

Who the hell are you, Zhao Changhe? How dare you look down on the human list

Yu Xiu was so angry that his lungs exploded.

He held the mourning stick in his hand horizontally, and the stick expanded rapidly. He pointed it at Zhao Changhe's wrist and shouted, "Let go!"

This stick already has the meaning of returning to nature.

The mourning stick was slightly longer than the dragon bird, and the strike was as fast as lightning, and the strike was made first, with unparalleled speed. Before the stick head touched the body, the sharp coldness had already invaded the wrist artery. Zhao Changhe had no doubt that this stick would directly cripple his hand.

Yu Ci Xiu even thought that Zhao Changhe had no chance of avoiding this stick. His cold energy had a restrictive and binding effect. For those with lower cultivation, being restricted so suddenly would hinder their subsequent subconscious changes. They would be a step slower in changing their moves, and then they would be hit directly without a doubt.

However, what shocked him was that Zhao Changhe seemed to be not restricted at all. The momentum of his sword did not change, but he just retracted it a few inches and hit the stick exactly.

Such a large sword weighing dozens of kilograms was used to cut horizontally, but it was blocked by a stick...

It goes without saying who will suffer the loss.

"Who's going to let go?" Zhao Changhe laughed, "That's how fate works!"

At this point, Xiu only felt his hands were numb and sore from the shock. He used the force to float away, shocked.

There's something wrong with Zhao Changhe's strength... Did he hide it? How could it be so fast!

Not only fast, but also steady! His cold energy gathered like a needle, if Zhao Changhe really just took advantage of the weight of the knife and didn't check it carefully, he would be stabbed so hard that his energy would be dispersed and he wouldn't even be able to hold the knife. But when the knife and stick intersected, he could only feel Zhao Changhe's strength condensed and tightened, without a single bit of leakage. On the contrary, there was a bloody aura attacking him, shaking his soul.

With this kind of force control and this kind of murderous intent, are you the one on the Demonic List or am I

At this point, Xiu adjusted his mentality and thought to himself that this guy can no longer be regarded as Qianlong's first rising star. This is an opponent that must be taken seriously!

As a result, this "opponent who must be taken seriously" didn't even look at him, and while he was retreating to adjust his center of gravity, he flew straight past him.

Rest here: "?"

"Didn't they say this road is blocked? I think it is passable." Zhao Changhe jumped across the street and deflected an arrow shot from a distance, leaving Yu Cixiu with only the back of his head.

Rest here: "…"

The deflected arrow flew back, a scream was heard in the distance, and the attacker died on the spot.

The human list blocked his way, and arrows were flying from all directions, but he passed through them freely.

Where does the so near yet so far come from!

The person who was most doubting his life at this moment was Xiaoxiang Divine Sword Lu Shiheng.

He and Maitreya attacked Tang Wanzhuang together. He originally thought that Maitreya was always on par with Tang Wanzhuang. With his interference and attacking when there were gaps, Tang Wanzhuang would definitely be in a very embarrassing situation.

But why is it that in actual fighting, it is completely different? It seems that Maitreya is much inferior to Tang Wanzhuang

Was it that Maitreya's injury from yesterday had not actually healed? Or was it because Tang Wanzhuang was already exerting the power of the third level of the secret treasure? Or had she exerted part of it

His understanding of martial arts was not enough to see the details of the top of the Earth List, and he was really puzzled. In short, Tang Wanzhuang did not seem to have much difficulty in dealing with Maitreya. Instead, it seemed that she put the main attack on him, trying to kill him first and then concentrate on dealing with Maitreya.

How could Lu Shiheng withstand this

"Swoosh!" The green waves of spring water split the light and reflected the shadows, and the rippling waves pierced Maitreya and Lu Shiheng, almost in no particular order.

Lu Shiheng couldn't count on Maitreya to help him block the sword, so he quickly withdrew.

But at this moment, a warning sign arose in his heart. He turned back suddenly and saw Zhao Changhe, covered in blood, holding up the Dragon Bird under the moonlight, slashing down from the roof. His blood-red eyes almost occupied his entire pupils, and the bloody and violent aura emanating from his body was so strong that even the moon looked like a blood moon.

All gods and Buddhas are gone!

After hiding it in secret, Zhao Changhe used this trick again, and he actually had the illusion that he was being pulled by celestial phenomena, as if the ancient fierce god had returned to the world. He was the Blood God!

Lu Shiheng was really scared out of his wits. Is there anyone in this world who is qualified to be attacked by the third on the Earth List and a master of the same level

What the hell are you doing here, you idiot! Can't you stop this

"choke!"

Lu Shiheng, who urgently dodged Tang Wanzhuang's sword, temporarily parried the attack with the Gods and Buddhas scattered. How could he resist this hasty force

The sword in his hand broke due to the knife. Lu Shiheng quickly dropped the sword and rolled on the ground, narrowly avoiding being cut in half.

There was a bloody mark on the forehead caused by the knife. If it was a little deeper, it would have been a real skull fracture!

Looking up, Yu Cixiu's mourning stick had also caught up with Zhao Changhe's back at this time: "Die!"

"Ding!" The spring water surged, passed over Zhao Changhe, and took the baton for him. They were in such tacit understanding that it seemed as if they had cooperated thousands of times.

Tragically, Yu Cixiu thought he was chasing Zhao Changhe, but who could have expected that the one who took over would be Tang Wanzhuang... His cold energy was like a child in front of Tang Wanzhuang, and he was slapped back by an adult: "I told you not to play in the water!"

At this point, Xiu's meridians became disordered and he almost vomited blood and fell back.

Tang Wanzhuang didn't bother to even look at him, she turned around and blocked Maitreya again, while at the same time Longque had already chopped at Maitreya's fat neck.

Suddenly, a group of adulterers surrounded Maitreya.

Maitreya's face was as gloomy as water, and he suddenly stepped back.

Zhao Changhe pulled Tang Wanzhuang's hand and said, "Let's go. There is a yellow bird behind us. Don't fight any longer."

Tang Wanzhuang smiled slightly: "Yeah."

The two men joined hands, using the exact same Qinggong routine to fly over the courtyard wall and walk away on the moon.

Surrounded by countless powerful bows and crossbows, no one dared to even shoot at this moment.

The arrow that just attacked Zhao Changhe and was deflected made people feel scared. In fact, it would be difficult for both Zhao Changhe and Tang Wanzhuang to withstand thousands of arrows, but at this moment, they were so frightened that no one dared to do so.

Especially Zhao Changhe, who was full of blood and energy and looked like a god or a demon. Just looking at him from afar made people tremble with fear.

Amidst the heavy siege, without firing a single arrow, they watched helplessly as the man and woman walked hand in hand on the moon and walked away in an instant.

Yu Cixi was angry and anxious, and asked Maitreya: "Shangfo, why don't you chase after him?"

Maitreya turned his head and glanced at Lu Shiheng who was retreating, and whispered: "Tang Wanzhuang has half-opened the third secret treasure, and we can't kill her by siege... We must leave immediately."

Yu Xiu was stunned: "Leave?"

"Of course." Maitreya pulled him and retreated quickly. The Maitreya followers were very organized and followed suit.

In the distance, there were shadowy figures, and someone was catching up. Seeing the neat posture and seeing that Maitreya didn't seem to be injured, he stopped hesitantly.

Maitreya seemed to sense something, turned his head and glanced, sneering: "They want to wait until we kill Tang Wanzhuang, and then come and kill us after both of us are defeated... They can not only get rid of Tang Wanzhuang's death, but also kill our elite troops in Xiangyang, and then they can sweep across Jiangnan from now on. Their calculations are so beautiful."

Yu Cixi pondered: "Their troops should still be north of the Han River. Perhaps they are planning to sneak over here at night?"

"Yes, it's just Yang Jingxiu or Wang Daozhong, a few experts who sneaked into the city by themselves." Maitreya sneered, "I knew they were like this a long time ago."

At this point, Xiu also sneered: "They thought they were using us, but they didn't know that our troops were already in the forest outside the city. Lu Shiheng was actually under our control. Once the city gate was opened, the army went straight in. The King of Langya and Yang of Hongnong thought they were so arrogant... Once their troops entered the city, they were all crushed to pieces!"

"The so-called northern army crossing the river to the south... As long as Xue Canghai of the Blood God Cult can arrive on time, their crossing the river will be a joke." Maitreya's eyes were a little gloomy: "Whether we can occupy Xiangyang depends on this one move."

Maitreya contacted the Blood God Cult not to attack Xiangyang, but to deal with the Northern Army... Originally the plan seemed complete, the biggest regret was that he had previously used the same trick to cooperate with the aristocratic families to really kill Tang Wanzhuang, but he failed. I don't know what tricks they can come up with next.

Yu Cixi also asked: "What about Tang Wanzhuang and Zhao Changhe..."

"Tang Wanzhuang half-opened the third secret collection, something must have gone wrong... I hope they can recuperate well. As long as they don't cause trouble for one night, everything will be settled." Maitreya felt very regretful: "What a pity, I don't know if they will use dual cultivation. Tang Wanzhuang is really a peerless beauty. After being enemies for so long, my biggest wish is to capture her. After planning for so long, I have to feed a weird brat the first taste of soup."
