Wu State.
Yang Pu's mansion.
In a certain room, Yang Pu, who was short and fat and wearing a green robe, was pacing in the room.
He is born with a sad face, even if he has no expression, he is still sad.
But this time was different. He always felt that a disaster was coming, and he felt extremely flustered.
He also comforted himself in his heart. It was possible that he was too nervous and uneasy because of the recent bloody storm, so he felt that something was wrong.
After all, what Li and Yang Longyan killed was a river of blood. They killed officials and officials day and night with their swords. They only killed a river of blood in the city and trampled all the bones of the officials in the streets.
Although after this series of events, Yang Pu's status in Wu State was not affected, and it was even slightly improved than before.
After all, it is impossible for Yang Longyan and Fake Li to kill everyone. To suppress one faction, they have to win over the other.
Yang Pu raised his eyes and looked at a screen in the room, which was given to him by Yang Long in the past few days.
The screen is painted with strange landscapes, the brushstrokes are smooth and mysterious, and the colors are as rich as red, making the wall look like a palace painting.
Distorted sunlight shines through the window lattice, illuminating the fine tiles and carved wooden floors inside.
A few rays of sunlight shone on Yang Pu. He didn't like the screen given to him by Yang Longyan for no other reason than the vague smell of blood on it.
He turned and walked towards his bed. The bed was located in the center of the room. It was huge and majestic. The bedposts were exquisitely carved and inlaid with glass and gold. The bed was covered with a brocade quilt made of brocade, which was delicate and luxurious.
Next to the bed is a set of gorgeous mahogany furniture. The wood is as smooth as jade and the carvings are fine, showing the superb skills of the craftsmen.
He must have been too tired recently and should take a rest.
He had just struggled to move his short and fat body onto the bed when he heard a "boom" and the door turned into debris and fell to the ground. He was thrown into the house along with several guards guarding the outside. .
Yang Pu suddenly stood up. He looked at the wailing guards lying on the ground and was shocked.
A man with a tall and straight posture, like a towering jade tree facing the wind, wearing a white Confucian suit and elegant clothes, slowly walked into the house under the sunshine.
He has a slender and tall figure, slightly broad shoulders, and a light and steady pace, as if he is walking on the clouds. His face is handsome, his eyes are bright and lively, and his whole person exudes an elegant temperament.
It was Li Cunli.
"You, who are you?" Yang Pu was startled. He looked at Li Cunli in front of him with some shortness of breath. He raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, looked at the person in front of him, and said in a panic.
Li Cunli did not answer immediately, but looked around the furnishings in the room with a gentle smile, and stayed on the bookshelf in Yang Pu's room for a few seconds.
Immediately, Li Cunli pulled open the sleeves that were tied tightly by him. He turned to look at Yang Pu, bowed his hands and said with a smile: "Tongwen... the bad guy Li Cunli has met you."
"Are you Li Cunli?!" Yang Pu was shocked when he heard this, and his vision turned black. When he was nervous, he felt weak in breathing, and his blood surged up, and he collapsed on the bed.
Although I don’t know why this person calls himself a bad person, the thirteen eunuchs under the command of King Jin, from the Holy Master of Tongwenguan, Ya Sheng, the Master of Cross Sect to Li Keyong’s own son Li Cunxu, all have evil names.
How could he survive if Li Cunli came to his door?
"Exactly." Li Cunli looked at Yang Pu in front of him, smiling so brightly that it felt like a spring breeze, but when this smile fell in Yang Pu's eyes, it was terrifying.
"Your Excellency... Your Excellency, why are you here?
I have heard for a long time that Li Cunli uses the word etiquette to establish himself. Is it a little too disrespectful to come here uninvited and hurt my disciples and guards? "Yang Pu looked at Li Cunli in front of him, held on to his confidence, and spoke in a cold tone.
It's just that in Li Cunli's eyes, this scene of a foreign strongman doing something funny a little bit.
"Please come with me, there is a great opportunity waiting for you and your daughter." Li Cunli looked at Yang Pu in front of him and said with a smile.
In fact, although Li Cunli was performing a mission, he still had his own understanding of the mission.
Why did he specially invite Princess Shangrao to the Tang Dynasty? This will inevitably make Li Cunli think too much or misunderstand one or two of them.
But now, it doesn't matter.
"I won't go, I won't go, I, I don't want opportunities." Yang Pu looked at Li Cunli in front of him and waved his hands quickly to express his rejection and resistance to the other party's proposal.
"You can't help it." Li Cunli sneered and looked at Yang Pu in front of him. He was an old man who had been pampered for many years, held a high position and had no skills at all. He really didn't take Yang Pu seriously.
"You, what are you going to do?
I warn you, I am the brother of King Wu. If you do this, King Wu will not let it go! "Yang Pu threatened Li Cunli with a fierce look, trying to buy some time for himself in this way.
"Nothing, Your Excellency, it's just that if you don't leave and let Princess Shangrao go on the road alone, she will be too lonely." Li Cunli took a few steps forward, and Yang Pu, who was pressed directly, was flustered.
But when he heard the words "Princess Shangrao", Yang Pu became anxious instantly. He pushed himself up and stood up with all his strength. He looked at Li Cunli in front of him and shouted sharply: "What are you going to do?
What did you do to Shangrao?
Don't touch her. You can give me whatever you want. If something happens to her, I will never let you go! "
"Don't worry, I didn't do anything. It's just that the country of Wu is not peaceful recently. I would like to ask you and Princess Shangrao to go to a peaceful place." Li Cunli looked at Yang Pu in front of him and said with a smile.
"Alas." After a long time, Yang Pu finally gave in.
People were under the eaves and had to lower their heads. Li Cunli was killed right in front of him, what else could he do?
All we have to do is surrender.
If the other party touches Shangrao, then he will have to fight for his life and find ways to kill him. But if they just ask them to follow Li Cunli to a place, then Yang Pu is not unacceptable.
Behind Li Cunli, several of Yang Pu's guards who had been knocked down by him slowly stood up. These people were loyal. Even though they knew they were no match for Li Cunli, they were still willing to stand up for Yang Pu.
"Don't!" Yang Pu raised his hand, trying to stop the people who were attacking Li Cunli. He knew very well how powerful Li Cunli was, and these people were definitely no match for him. If they offended him, there would be a bloody disaster.
But before he finished speaking, he saw a sharp cold light streaking across the room. Not long after, a tall figure with a cold face and a black figure rushed out.
The afterimage danced with the cold light, bringing up streaks of blood.
It was Ba Ye.
Several people who tried to attack Li Cunli were all killed by Ba Ye.
His actions made Yang Pu swallow the few words he had not yet spoken.
"You!" Yang Pu was very angry when he saw this scene. He looked at Li Cunli in front of him, but he dared not speak out in anger.
"There is no reason in this world that they are only allowed to sneak attack, but we are not allowed to fight back." Baiya shook the blood on Qimen's weapons and said with a sneer.
"Hey." Li Cunli raised his hand, and he and Baye began to sing in harmony: "You are such a reckless man, why don't you apologize quickly? Your visit today is really rude to us, how can you kill innocent people indiscriminately?"
"The general taught you a lesson." After hearing this, Ba Ye quickly put away his sinister expression, looked at Li Cunli in front of him, and bowed.
"Why don't you apologize to your Excellency quickly?" Li Cunli's smile did not diminish. He looked at Yang Pu in front of him and said.
Ba Ye looked at Yang Pu in front of him and bowed.
"Your Excellency, the journey is a bit long. My subordinate, Ba Ye, will escort you for the rest of the journey. How about it?" Li Cunli looked at Yang Pu in front of him and said calmly.
"Please rest assured, I, Ba Ye, have always been invincible and can definitely protect your safety." Ba Ye held a sharp weapon in his hand. He looked at Yang Pu in front of him and said.
"You, you..." In broad daylight, under the clear sky, the other party dared to be so rampant, but after thinking about it, Yang Pu gave up the plan of taking action.
Many of the tips he received described Li Cunli. These tips may not tell him how to fight Li Cunli, but they can tell him how terrifying Li Cunli is now.
In the end, Yang Pu, who dared to be angry but dared not speak out, followed Ba Ye on the road.
…
The original residence of Xu Wen.
Now he is the chief helmsman of the Xuanming Sect of Wu State and all branch helmsmen.
Magnificent and luxurious, it shows respect. The mansion is located next to a garden, with lush greenery and trees, birds chirping and flowers fragrant. The gate is towering, carved with white jade and painted with gold threads, making it dazzling.
Stepping into the mansion, the luxurious hall is decorated with gold foil on the walls, shining with golden light. The crystal chandelier hangs brightly, illuminating the Guangsha. A large table with lacquered wood and carved dragons, laid with brocade and decorated with porcelain, gold and silver. The inner room is exquisite and prosperous, dominated by mahogany couches, brocade curtains and exquisite furniture. The private garden has flower paths, rare flowers and plants, small bridges and flowing water, and deep winding paths. The pavilions, terraces and pavilions are ingeniously crafted, and the carved beams and painted buildings are meticulously carved.
Zhu Youwen is meditating and practicing Qigong at the moment. He is sitting cross-legged on a futon with his hands clasped together. The red air is surging between his hands. Yin energy is billowing around him. Thick black mist surrounds Zhu Youwen's body like an evil ghost. Turn around and don’t listen.
His black armor also shone brightly in the sun.
Now Zhu Youwen is in a daze. He practices martial arts and internal skills all day long, but he can't make a breakthrough.
In fact, Zhu Youwen's current situation is very similar to that of Li Siyuan in the past. He has the same desire to get the skills to make up for his own shortcomings, and the same when he makes a desperate move, he can't help but think that there is another way.
It's just that what Li Siyuan was thinking about was the "Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Jue".
What Zhu Youwen was thinking about was Xuantian, the second volume of Jiuyou Xuantian Divine Art.
Not long after, his breath became chaotic, and he failed to break through again. He withdrew his inner strength, and the Yin energy around him gradually dissipated.
'Damn it, hand over Xuantian Chapter! Hand over the magical secrets in the Longquan treasure! ! ! Zhu Youwen roared in his heart, but his face remained calm and motionless.
Although he has inner demons, Zhu Youwen is far tougher than Li Siyuan and is not so easy to lose his heart.
"Come in." Zhu Youwen closed his eyes and said slowly.
He just failed to break through. In addition to being trapped by inner demons, part of the reason was because he felt someone approaching.
This was the stress reaction left by Zhu Yougui's sneak attack that year.
Although he was angry in his heart, he also knew not to anger others, so he controlled his emotions and spoke.
"Ghost King." Zhong Xiaokui slowly walked into the house, knelt down on one knee in front of Zhu Youwen, looked at Zhu Youwen in front of him, and said respectfully.
"What's the matter?" Zhu Youwen closed his eyes and asked in a calm tone.
You don't need to think about it, I'm afraid it's not the fake Li Xingyun and Yang Longyan who caused trouble again, and they need him to kill someone.
"Someone wants to see you." Zhong Xiaokui raised his head, looked at Zhu Youwen in front of him, and reported.
"Huh?!" The misprediction made Zhu Youwen open his eyes. He looked at Zhong Xiaokui in front of him and said.
"Who is he?" Zhu Youwen looked at Zhong Xiaokui in front of him and asked.
"Hui Gui Wang said that they are a group of people from Raojiang. Among them, the leader is very skilled and is not inferior to his subordinates, and the rest of the deployment is also quite elite.
I'm afraid... it's related to the "Ten Thousand Poison Cave". "Zhong Xiaokui looked at Zhu Youwen in front of him, opened his mouth to report, and also presented his guesses and inferences to Zhu Youwen.
"People from Raojiang?
Ten Thousand Poison Cave?
Interesting. "Hearing this, Zhu Youwen's heart was a little clouded by the difficulty in making a breakthrough.
Zhong Xiaokui's news really made him very interesting.
What are the people from Ten Thousand Poison Cave looking for him for?
"Let's go, 'Welcome'." Zhu Youwen snorted coldly, and disappeared in an instant.
Zhong Xiaokui quickly stood up and followed.
…
Not long after.
In front of the original Xu Wen residence.
A group of Ten Thousand Poison Cave minions under You Chuan were in a tense confrontation with the Xuan Ming Cult in front of them.
Most of the members of Xuanming Cult were just recruited from the Jianghu, and many of them had heard about the horror of Ten Thousand Poison Cave.
That was an organization with more notorious killing methods than the Xuanming Sect, so they couldn't help but feel nervous.
As for You Chuan's side, although You Chuan seemed calm and relaxed on the surface, after all, he was on his home court, so it was unreasonable that he didn't feel a little nervous.
Not long after, I saw a group of Xuan Ming Cult members voluntarily and consciously getting out of the way.
A man with red hair and a red beard, tall and burly, like a majestic mountain between heaven and earth, with a broad and powerful chest, strong and shapely muscles, and arms like iron cannons. The man in black armor slowly walked out of the building.
Behind him, Zhong Xiaokui followed closely, closely following the footsteps of his own ghost king.
You Chuan saw the majestic Zhu Youwen in front of him, which made people involuntarily feel awe, secretly thinking that this was the person he was looking for.
However, the image of Zhu Youwen made him think a lot. If Chi Meng were here, he would probably give the person in front of him a nickname like "Big Red-Haired Bear"...
Too bad it's all over.
But having said that, since I saw the ghost king Zhu Youwen today, it was worth making such a big fuss.
"You said you want to see the Ghost King, but the Ghost King is here, why don't you come forward to pay homage!" Zhong Xiaokui looked at You Chuan in front of him and ordered.
