A month ago, the wedding procession set off from Heisha City in great numbers. The sun was setting over the long river, the desert was smoky, and the dust was everywhere. It was quite hard to travel eastward, through the Gobi Desert, and over the barren mountains. After walking for many days, the vegetation gradually became denser, the number of people increased, and the noises filled my ears. Once you cross the Yellow River, the capital Chang'an will be within easy reach.

The journey was uneventful, which was beyond Nayun's expectations. Thinking about the green grass and blue sky, the days of free running are gone forever, and I feel extremely sad. The bearded brother rode forward, keeping a certain distance from her carriage, and had no chance to be alone. Even when they meet, they are respectful and abide by etiquette. Na Yun knows that Brother Huzi is deliberately avoiding her.

Xiao Se followed him all the way and found it boring when he saw the calm. "My lord, did the second prince give up so easily? When we arrive in Chang'an tomorrow, my lord is done."

"Qili is accumulating strength. The real fierce battle will be after arriving in Chang'an."

Xiao Se's expression turned stern and he asked, "Did the Lord sense any danger?"

Yin Lishang's face was gloomy, "In the battle in the canyon, I was severely injured, my vitality was severely damaged, and my powers are gradually fading. Now I can only perceive the very near future, and it's very blurry."

While he was talking, a fast horse galloped up from a distance. The man on the horse, wearing black clothes and covering his face, presented a letter. Yin Lishang smiled after reading it and handed it to Xiao Se.

"Fourth brother is running a good business in Yinshan. It seems that we should cooperate internally and externally. The day is not far away when we can avenge our shame. Moreover, the information he provided is very important..."

At dusk the next day, the team arrived in Chang'an. Yin Lishang asked someone to present the customs clearance document. They were greeted by court officials, who were polite and orderly. Staying at the post station in the city, with its red walls and tall pavilions and green trees, it is very quiet. When the moon rose, Yin Lishang went straight to the princess's bedroom, uncharacteristically.

The cloud's face was as heavy as water. He waved his hand and moved away from the maid next to him. He asked, "Is there anything you can report to the ambassador?"

Yin Lishang knew that she was letting go of her anger, and there was a dull pain in her heart. She said softly: "My subordinates are here to report to the princess that they will meet the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty tomorrow, but there may be danger tonight. I would like to ask the princess to make some preparations according to my subordinates' wishes."

Na Yun smiled bitterly: "My heart is dead, what danger am I still afraid of? Brother Huzi is so nervous, is he worried that something will go wrong with the marriage and your bright future will be in danger?"

"Princess, don't talk about life and death lightly. Just tonight, your true love will appear, and your life will open a new page..."

"Don't try to fiddle with me with these mysterious fates!" Na Yun said with a stern voice, and suddenly tore open his collar, revealing his snow-white skin, but his eyes were extremely sad: "I asked Brother Huzi to be the peace ambassador just to wait for this opportunity. You stay with me tonight. I, even if I am happy for a moment, I will have no regrets in this life..."

Five miles away, in a quiet alley, the tavern inside was dimly lit and business was deserted. There was only one customer in the corner raising a glass and drinking.

At this time, someone hurriedly walked and whispered in his ear. After hearing this, Li Xuan sneered: "The traitorous general Xu Ran actually formed a clique for private purposes and had evil intentions? I ordered you to go down and catch them all in one fell swoop. No fish slipped through the net. If you resist, you will be killed without mercy!"

Li Xuan drank the wine in his glass and walked out of the tavern. The moonlight is like a hook, and the light is dim, but his cultivation is profound and his eyes can see at night. The deep house compound next to it, with its red walls and blue tiles, is Xu Ran's mansion. It is quiet at night and the lights are still on. It seems that the operation has ended.

Just as he was about to leave, there was the sound of footsteps next to him, and a figure was leaning against the corner, walking with his head lowered. Li Xuan was immediately alert, and a thought came to his mind: "There is a fish that slipped through the net, and you still want to escape?"

He quickly followed up, focused his palms, and struck directly at the man's back. With only 10% of his palm strength, he would be seriously injured even if he didn't die. This is the teaching of my father, to eradicate the root of the problem without mercy.

The man also heard the movement behind him and looked back in a hurry. In the darkness, Li Xuan saw her face clearly. It turned out to be a young woman with a beautiful face. When he looked back inadvertently, his heart skipped a beat.

Li Xuan Shengsheng stopped his palm, not knowing what to do. The situation was a bit embarrassing. He was thinking about leaving or striking up a conversation, but couldn't make up his mind. At this moment, the wind blew, the figures swayed, and more than ten men in black surrounded them.

The leader's face was covered with black veil, and his eyes were shining brightly, "The rest of us will be dealt with quickly without any further trouble!"

There are many remnants of the prince's party in the capital, and Li Xuan has seen many scenes like this. But today, he was a little hesitant. If he gave it a go, a bloody fight might harm this innocent woman. After a moment's hesitation, he gently held the woman's slender waist with his right hand and performed a movement technique. It was the master's special skill "Shadow Penetrating Clouds", and his figure flew past like light smoke and disappeared without a trace.

In the blink of an eye, we passed through several streets, and in front of us was the most prosperous Zhuji Alley in the capital. Even though it was late at night, the lights were still bright and there was an endless flow of people. Li Xuan put the girl down and felt a little embarrassed when he thought about the relationship between men and women.

The girl was generous and gave him a gentle bow, full of charm, then turned around and entered the bustling street. Li Xuan didn't understand the relationship between men and women, so his eyes were attracted by her graceful figure and he couldn't help himself. For some reason, Li Xuan felt like there was a trace of tears in the corners of her eyes.

At this moment, the night was quiet, and Yin Lishang quietly walked out of the princess's bedroom. The shadows of the trees were swaying, the moonlight was bright and dark, and a breeze blew past her face. He turned sideways and held the spine of the sword between his two fingers, and chuckled: "Xiao Qi, is it really you?"

Yin Lihen was dressed in black robes, flashed out of the shadows, and shook his sword, "Yes, the second one is me!"

"Is it for the princess? Or for me?"

"Serving Prince Qili is the right thing to do, and getting rid of the traitor like you is the right thing to do!"

The two men looked at each other coldly, and the black sword energy in their hands filled the air, gradually turning into a dark space. When enemies meet, there is no need to say anything. Xiao Qi waved his right palm, and several black shadows silently surrounded Yin Lishang.

Li Shang smiled and said: "Just these few guys want to deal with me? You are too underestimated as a brother!"

When the black air became thicker, it submerged the two figures. Suddenly, several black shadows flashed past, carrying fierce winds and attacking with sharp blades through the air. Yin Lishang has been practicing shadow control since he was a child and is accustomed to darkness.

He flew to dodge and stabbed his chest with the "Shadow-Breaking Sword". The black shadow did not disappear, but several people gathered around it and attacked from all sides. Li Shang hurriedly used his body-protecting energy to repel him.

"You're not afraid of the 'Shadow-Breaking Sword'? Are you a Soul Shadow Warrior?"

Xiao Qi emerged from the darkness with a rather proud look on his face, "Fourth brother guessed it right, these are the Soul Shadow Warriors. They are unkillable and invincible. The Yinshan Sect's supreme formation is tailor-made for you!"

Yin Lishang knew how powerful the soul shadow warrior was, so he used the "Blood Shadow Pill" to destroy his soul out of his body, and possessed his shadow with his soul. He was not afraid of swords and spells, making him a true immortal warrior. He fought back with sword energy, and several black figures' heads disappeared, but they recovered in an instant.

"What a waste of effort!" Xiao Qi sneered.

Yin Lishang retreated from the black shadow and suddenly broke out from above. Xiao Qi had already guessed his intention and sniped from above. The two of them were separated at the first touch, and the weapons collided with black sparks. "Unfortunately, this road is blocked!"

Yin Lishang was forced back and fell into tight siege again. The fingers of several black shadows suddenly swelled up and intertwined into a network, trapping Li Shang in it. Li Shang used the "Shadow-Breaking Sword" to compete with each other. Their strength waxed and waned, and he was gradually at a disadvantage.

"Father only trusts the little guy named Fourth. I begged hard to get this job. Don't blame me, second brother. Only by dealing with you can I gain a respected position!"

Yin Lishang was suppressed by the black network and couldn't help it. Xiao Qi was so proud that he just waited for his opponent to be exhausted, then stepped forward and killed him with a sword. However, without warning, all the black shadows suddenly disappeared and turned into nothing. Xiao Qi's proud expression turned into one of great surprise before she could put it away.

Li Shang floated over with a smile on his face, "The weakness of the Soul Shadow Warrior lies in his true body. When the true body dies, the thread holding the soul is destroyed, and the Soul Shadow Warrior ceases to exist. Moreover, the remote control between him and his true body is The distance is within a hundred feet, so it’s easy to find it!”

Xiao Qi woke up from a dream and looked around in horror, "Is it Xiao Se? No wonder he didn't show up?"

Yin Lishang was noncommittal and continued: "You only know that magic power is strong and weak, but you don't know that there is something more powerful, and that is information. I know your trip well, but you stepped in and there is no life left!"

Xiao Qi suddenly realized it and gritted his teeth, "Sure enough, the fourth child is cheating and colluding with you! Don't be complacent. One day, that insidious villain will also betray you!"

"You don't understand true brotherhood at all. That loyalty transcends life and death. It's just that you don't have the chance to experience it."

With a wave of his hand, a barrier slowly unfolded, trapping the two of them. Xiao Qi hissed and laughed ferociously: "That's fine, either you die or I die, let's end it happily." His face was ferocious, and his hair was covered in black air, like thick fog. "Let you see Yinshan's supreme skill, 'Thousand Shadows'!"

Before he finished speaking, the black energy condensed into countless shadows, surrounding Li Shang heavily. This technique was practiced by the Lord of Yinshan Mountain and rarely spread to outsiders. Its momentum is overwhelming and overwhelming. Yin Lishang is like a small boat in the huge waves, drifting with the current and about to capsize.

At this time, eight stars were shining brightly in the barrier, and suddenly they exploded together, like the sun in the sky. When the light was shining, the "thousand shadows" flew away like smoke. This time, Xiao Qi was not too surprised. He just lamented: "You have indeed been prepared. The 'Eight Extremes Formation' is so radiant that it is the nemesis of the shadow. Fourth child, I have been completely betrayed by you!"

At this time, the light and shadow were extinguished and darkness returned. Countless black threads crawled out like vines, tying Xiao Qi tightly. "Although you have woken up, it is too late, you will never have a chance again!"

"You, you dare to kill me?" Xiao Qi asked in shock.

"I heard that you have a lifelike horse orchid tattoo on your back. I want to peel it off, make it into a shadow drum, and give it to the master..." Yin Lishang said it in an understatement. Xiao Qi couldn't bear it anymore and started to retching. , "You are so cruel to your brothers, everyone will despise you!"

"In the dictionary of Yinshan, only the weak will be spurned. Your father will go crazy and have a mental breakdown when he sees Shadow Drum. From then on, he will be paranoid and cruel, killing innocent people indiscriminately, and making people angry. When I give an order when I return, and everyone responds, he will be beyond redemption... …”
