Ling Yun used his trick to induce Hua Ruyu to tell the truth, and arranged for the guards to record her confession in detail.
Everyone was about to leave, but unexpectedly, the innkeeper Fu Sheng took advantage of Ling Yun's unpreparedness and used a sharp "Single Phoenix Chaoyang" style to raise his sharp blade and stab him straight in the front!
Ling Yun decisively realized that something was wrong. He hurriedly performed the "Phoenix Swirl", and his agile body spun lightly in the air.
It's just that the opponent's sword was too overbearing and cruel, and it was a sudden attack. Although Ling Yun reacted quickly and avoided the vital part, his right shoulder was still cut deeply by the opponent's sharp sword blade, which was almost an inch deep.
There was a sharp pain at the wound, and blood immediately spurted out like spring water, gurgling and instantly dyeing his snow-white clothes red.
Ling Yun took a few steps back and subconsciously covered the wound with his left hand.
Seeing that the situation was bad, the guards on both sides showed their swords and said sternly: "Bold!..."
The evil aura in Fu Sheng's eyes was turbulent, full of strong murderous intent; he gave a ferocious smile and performed a "Goddess Scattering Flowers" gesture, seemingly casually waving his hand, but he saw stars in front of his eyes.
Poorly, dozens of guards from the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Punishment were hit between the eyebrows by several hidden silver needle weapons sent by Fu Sheng before they could fight back.
They only stood there for a moment, then fell to the ground one after another, dying.
Ling Yun was horrified and hurriedly raised his hand to draw the sword, but he felt the wound was numb and almost lost all pain. He could not help but gritted his teeth and said: "The blade of your sword is poisonous..."
Fu Sheng said proudly: "Yes, the blade of my sword is quenched with 'Hundred Flowers Gu Poison'. Compared with 'Qianbu Broken Heart Powder', they have their own advantages and disadvantages, but they have the same purpose but the same effect!"
Ling Yun took a gentle breath and tapped a few key points near his shoulders with his parallel fingers to seal the points to prevent the poison from spreading.
His star-like eyes flashed, and he said angrily: "Who are you?"
Fu Sheng gave a long laugh, raised his hand and tore off the human skin mask used to disguise his face, and restored his true appearance.
Ling Yun looked at him with scarlet eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "Is it you?..."
The person who came was none other than Li Ruiyun, the leader of the Tianxiao organization.
He has black clothes, black hair, and deep black eyes. The slanting sword eyebrows inserted into the temples, the blood-red eyes, the slightly aquiline nose, the slightly sunken corners of the mouth, and the angular face more and more vividly accentuated the ruthless and powerful aura exuding from his body.
Seeing Hua Ruyu on the side, a twinkling light suddenly appeared in her originally dark eyes.
She struggled to crawl forward two steps and said repeatedly: "Gang leader, gang leader... you are finally here. Please save your subordinates. They all work for you..."
Li Ruiyun's face suddenly darkened. He slowly walked up to Hua Ruyu, his deep eyes exuded a bloodthirsty aura, and said coldly: "Shut up! You stupid woman, you are more likely to fail than succeed, so what's the use of keeping you?"
As he spoke, he flew up with a kick and hit Hua Ruyu in the chest with a ruthless "Sand Wind".
Hua Ruyu screamed, her delicate body flew backwards several feet away, and hit the wall heavily. She vomited blood and lay motionless on the ground.
Even though Ling Yun was well-informed and experienced the tragic situation in front of him, his face turned pale and he hesitated to speak.
Li Ruiyun turned around, glanced at Ling Yun's somewhat pale face, smiled narrowly and said, "Ling Yun, what do you think now?"
Ling Yun raised one corner of his mouth and sneered: "Ling has finally seen Gang Leader Li's ability to kill donkeys."
"What else?..." Li Ruiyun's deep voice trailed off with a joking tone.
Ling Yun frowned slightly, and glanced at the person in front of him with a fierce look, as if he didn't even bother to look at him, "I'm still a little bit disdainful of Gang Leader Li. Wrenching people with hidden arrows and using dirty methods will damage Gang Leader Li's life." A famous name?"
Li Ruiyun suddenly narrowed his eyes and said leisurely: "That's well said. But Ling Yun, you should understand the principle of 'the winner is the king and the loser is the enemy'! To be honest, it's not easy to deal with you tonight. Beauty traps can't work, and poison can't be used." It didn’t work, and in the end you had to trouble me to take action personally to settle the matter - Ling Yun, you are really capable!"
When he said this, his tone was not kind at all, full of teasing and provocation; his eyes were more like knives, wanting to cut the person in front of him into pieces.
He paused and then said: "But after all, Ling Yun, you still lost in my hands! Do you know where you went wrong tonight? That is that you put all your energy and thoughts into dealing with The flowers are like jade——
"So you would never have thought that a little innkeeper could pose such a big threat to you. Do you still remember the saying 'The mantis stalks the cicada, but the oriole follows behind'?"
Ling Yun looked at him with burning eyes and sighed softly: "People say beauty is poison. Li Ruiyun, you are ten times more terrifying than beauty and poison!"
Li Ruiyun's expression twisted, and he suddenly laughed slowly, "Thanks to the compliment, Mr. Li is a little flattered. But having said that, I won't force you, Ling Yun, to say such words until the last moment - How about it, eldest son, do you feel like a hero is at his end now?"
Ling Yun snorted and said: "We don't know who will win or lose until the last moment. Li Ruiyun, don't be too smug. If you have the guts, just come." As he said that, he made a horizontal sword move.
Li Ruiyun's eyes flashed with coldness and murderous intent, "How can you show off your bravery when death is imminent? Come on, get him!"
With a wave of his hand, a sturdy man with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a short mustache came in from the outside with several disciples in green clothes.
Ling Yun felt that this person's popularity was extraordinary, so he asked: "What is your name?"
The man said: "My name is Chen Erhu."
Ling Yun was slightly startled and said suddenly: "Oh, so you are the owner of the Wild Boar Forest Village?"
"Not bad." Chen Erhu glanced at Ling Yun with squinting eyes, twisted his neck, and said lazily.
When he saw that the man in front of him was handsome and tall, his figure was tall and straight. Although he was majestic, he was not as powerful and fierce as he imagined. Instead, he looked a bit pale and weak. He couldn't help but curl his lips in disdain.
"Ling Yun, I have heard of your reputation before. I originally thought you were a tall and mighty figure with three heads and six arms. Now it seems that you are nothing more than that - humph, Ling Yun, you are going to fall into my hands today. Got it!"
After saying that, he slashed his face with the ghost-headed sword in his hand, "clouds across the Qinling Mountains".
Ling Yun's sword tip struck, and what he used was the "starry sky" in the ruthless sword technique.
Chen Erhu was so shaken that he was dizzy and hurriedly dodged. Even so, the opponent's long sword still made a cut on his chest and ribs. Blood gushed out like a spring. He screamed in pain and took a few steps back to cover the wound.
Li Ruiyun said coldly from the side: "Chen Erhu, you underestimate the enemy too much."
Chen Erhu said in panic: "Yes." He turned around and called the disciples in green clothes behind him to come up shoulder to shoulder. It seemed that he was going to bully the few.
At this time, Ling Yun stopped talking. He took a deep breath and suppressed the poison that was about to spread. He waved his long sword, flying flowers and jade, and furious sword flowers. Several fierce moves were combined with his powerful skills. The next coherent burst came out.
Everyone wailed and retreated one after another. If Ling Yun hadn't been injured and his skills were greatly reduced, these people would have been covered in blood.
Despite this, nine out of ten people were still injured, and two people were seriously injured and died on the spot.
Li Ruiyun looked at Ling Yun's superb and fierce swordsmanship and his free and easy posture, and couldn't help but be secretly surprised, thinking to himself: "We haven't seen each other for several years, and his martial arts attainments have improved a lot. It seems that just with the skills of these few people, we can win." It’s not easy to get rid of him, do you really need me to do it myself?”
He was planning a response when suddenly a detective disciple hurried over and said: "Gang leader, many officers and soldiers were found outside."
Li Ruiyun was stunned for a moment, "Approximately how many people are there?"
The disciple said: "The night is too dark and I can't see clearly. There seem to be five or six hundred people!"
Li Ruiyun frowned, then turned to look at Ling Yun, Chen Erhu and others who were fighting fiercely. He turned his sinister eyes and had an idea.
He called back to the innkeeper and whispered a few instructions in his ear. The shopkeeper understood and quietly evacuated with the people around him.
Li Ruiyun dashed out of the room with a "goose falls on the sand" and lightly pressed his hand on a mechanism on the outer wall of the room.
There was only a "click" sound, a loud noise like the earth was falling, and the doors and windows of the entire room had been tightly sealed, turning it into a cage.
Everyone was startled and hurriedly stopped and looked around. For a moment, they didn't realize what happened.
Li Ruiyun outside the room sneered, and pressed the button again. Countless sulfur rockets suddenly flew out from the four walls of the room, hitting the curtains like a gust of wind. The brocade couch was instantly filled with flames, and the fire started burning in the blink of an eye. .
Along with intermittent explosions, thick clouds of black smoke came out, and debris and debris flew everywhere; countless rockets hit the poor Tianxiao disciples, and their bodies immediately caught fire and burned. He got up and became a burning person in an instant.
Everyone screamed in agony, rolling on the ground, or fleeing in all directions. The pain was so extreme that it was unbearable to watch, and the scene was immediately in chaos.
Ling Yun's body turned around, and several rockets flew past his clothes, which was extremely dangerous. At this time, the fire in the room was getting bigger and bigger, and there was thick smoke and poisonous flames burning the skin everywhere.
Chen Erhu was hit by two arrows and his whole body was covered with fire. He was rolling on the ground in pain, wailing: "Gang leader, gang leader, don't do it...hurry up and save your subordinates..."
Hua Ruyu, who was unconscious on the ground, actually became conscious at this time.
Perhaps the choking smoke and hot flames strongly stimulated her nerves, and her survival instinct made her murmur for help, "Help me, save me, I don't want to die..."
Ling Yun's eyebrows were raised, his eyes widened, and he cursed at Li Ruiyun outside the room: "Li Ruiyun, you are so despicable!"
Li Ruiyun smiled proudly and said: "Ling Yun, my eldest son, you can scold you as much as you want! With so many of my disciples buried with you, you will not be alone on the road to hell! Hahaha..."
After laughing, he led the crowd and walked away.
