At this moment, a dazzling blue light suddenly flashed out from the violent wind and sand, and in the center of the blue light, a thin golden dragon was faintly revealed. Just when the blue light was about to slash at the golden dragon, the sturdy middle-aged man , shouted: "Liu Sha, you don't want to die!"

The man's figure was much faster than his words. He pulled out a sharp blade from his waist and caught the blue light.

boom!

There was an explosion, and the man held a full-moon scimitar on his head, but the ground under his knees had sunken into a large pit. The large pit spread along the center of the hall to all sides. At this time, the hall was already quite fragile. Letting out a harsh whine, the Moon Emperor wrinkled his eyes and waved a palm.

There was another loud noise, and the roof of the hall shattered into a piece of powder. Then there were several more loud bangs from around the hall, and the four walls collapsed.

After a while, the heavy dust was gradually blown away by the wind, and everyone's vision gradually became clearer. In the center of the ruins, standing in the center of the ruins, was a young man in white clothes, with a slight smile on his face. Although the white clothes on his body had some tears, there was no trace of blood on his body.

On the other hand, the young woman in purple gauze lying next to the boy had a pale face. There was a trace of blood in her closed eyes, and the body bound by the purple gauze was already dripping with blood. A trace of sweet blood spilled out from under her body, but it was like a coquettish blood rose blooming under her body.

As for the middle-aged man who was half-kneeling in front of the young man, there was a huge pit under his knees. The gravel splashed from the pit actually shattered into dust in mid-air. As you can imagine, How intense was the fighting situation at that time?

The middle-aged man stood up slowly with a trace of shock and horror in his eyes. He glanced at Yu Zun faintly, then walked slowly towards Liu Sha, picked up Liu Sha's frail body, and said: "Your Majesty, today's battle will be postponed for the time being. Come here, Liu Sha is seriously injured and needs urgent medical treatment."

The Moon Emperor nodded lightly and said calmly: "Okay, let's call it a day for now. I will pass on my imperial edict and all the doctors from Xuantai Hospital will work together to treat Miss Liu's injuries."

The middle-aged man bowed and clasped his fists and said: "On behalf of the Wu Kingdom, Guo Yu is here to thank His Majesty for His grace."

After the storm dispersed, Yu Zun, Yue Huang and others stood in front of the ruins, but there was no trace of regret on their faces. Yue Huang frowned slightly and said quietly: "You mean the person who assassinated the princess was still Lingmeng Mountain?" Someone coming?”

Yu Zun nodded and said: "Exactly, at least if my judgment is accurate, I should have met that person before, and more than once."

"Oh?" Yue Huang said slightly confused.

"That day in Lingyuan City, there was someone who was playing a game of paper kites in mid-air. At first, I thought that the puppet technique could only control some real objects. Later, after I communicated with some strange people in the court, it turned out that the puppet technique The technique can also control things like light and shadow," Yu Zun said with a slightly solemn expression.

The Moon Emperor nodded and said: "Yes, you can control the trajectory of shadows and light even if you are extremely skilled in puppetry. But how did you find out that the person who assassinated the princess was a person who practiced puppetry?"

Yu Zun's eyebrows gradually gained a hint of solemnity, and he said: "During the imperial court, when I entered the palace, I saw a shadow under the feet of a soldier. He looked quite strange and weak. On the day when the princess was assassinated, I had chased a man. , but no matter how much I speeded up, I still couldn't catch up. Later, after many fact checks, I concluded that I was not chasing alone that day."

At this time, the Moon Emperor also had a trace of concern on his face and said: "You mean, the martial arts used by the person who assassinated the princess that day was puppetry?"

"Yes, exactly!" Yu Zun nodded and said solemnly.

"It seems that this warlock has infiltrated the palace. He is determined to destroy my son." The coldness on the Moon Emperor's face became more and more serious, and a layer of frost gradually covered the dignified and beautiful face.

"However, Your Majesty, don't worry too much. As long as the princess and the sisters act together, there will be no problem." A smile gradually appeared on Yu Zun's face.

"Oh?" Yue Huang said with a trace of confusion on his face.

"Your Majesty, an old friend once gave me a silver paper crane. With this silver paper crane in my hand, if the princess encounters any trouble, Yu Zun can rush there immediately. Yu Zun will give this silver paper crane to Zhong Xia, and follow Yu Zun. The other girl who entered the palace together is indeed a person with profound martial arts. As long as the two girls are always by her side, the princess will be fine." Yu Zun smiled lightly, with a ray of wisdom flashing in his eyes.

The Moon Emperor nodded and sighed: "As long as you are here, I will have peace of mind. Although I know that you cannot stay, I still hope that you can assist me in stabilizing this country."

Yu Zun laughed loudly and said: "Your Majesty, when everyone is born, the path they will take is already determined. Your Majesty will take the path of the emperor, but Yu Zun will take the path of regardless of the Ming Dynasty."

"Then what are your plans after leaving the Moon Kingdom?" At this time, the Moon Emperor seems to be Yu Zun's old friend. The two of them confided in their hearts, but they no longer cared about their respective identities.

Yu Zun's eyes were far-reaching, looking to the northwest, and said leisurely: "If it hadn't been for Princess Min's incident, Yu Zun would have been in Chechi Kingdom."

The Moon Emperor nodded and said: "The game between great powers cannot be reversed by one person's power. God has the virtue of good life. I hope that the war between Chechi Kingdom and Beihuang Kingdom can cease. We must put the common people of the world first." "

"But more than one person has said to me, if one day I want to kill you, then you have to break this Xuantian. Yu Zun was born miserable, but he has an indifferent view of life and death in the world." Yu Zun's eyes He said with a hint of bitterness.

At this time, Min Meng rushed over with Zhong Xia and Xian Xian, panting: "Mother, it's not good, Hua Xiang has been assassinated."

Yu Zun was startled in his heart and murmured: "It seems that some people can't wait any longer."

The Moon Emperor had a slightly worried look on his face and said, "How is Hua Xiang doing now?"

Min Meng patted his chest, glanced at Xianxian, and took a long breath and said: "Fortunately, the sister was there at the time. When the murderer took action for the second time, he killed him. Hua Xiang had a wound on his belly. He was hit by a knife, but his life was not hurt.”

A sharp light flashed in Yu Zun's eyes, and he said: "Take me to Xiang Hua's Mansion to have a look."

Several people rushed to the Prime Minister's Mansion. In the lobby of the Prime Minister's Mansion, there was a masked man in white lying. The man was stabbed in the chest. The mottled blood stained his white clothes blood red. Yu Zun gently pulled the man down. wearing a mask and murmuring: "It's just as I expected."

That day, at the top of Lingmao Mountain, Yu Zun did see this man in white. The reason why he was so impressed by the man in white was because his companion had been captured by Yu Zun in Frost City before. That man had teased him, and when he used a kite to coerce a child, it really left a deep impression on Yu Zun."

But when the viewing wall on the top of Lingmeng Mountain was opened, the man in white was standing with the man not far away from Yu Zun. Now the man in white comes to assassinate Hua Xiang, which seems to have a subtle connection with Ming Xiang's death.

At the same time, in a government office, an old man and a young man dressed in black and white stood in front of a middle-aged man with a sinewy face, looking a little disappointed.

"What? His body was left in the Prime Minister's Mansion? Aren't you trying to harm me? If His Majesty were to investigate me thoroughly, wouldn't this crime mean that I, the entire Lu family, would be killed?" General Lu Yu The tea cup in his hand fell heavily to the ground, and the flesh on his face trembled.

The thin middle-aged man in black robe said: "Sir, there is no need to panic, they can't find anything from Cang Jie's body."

Lu Yu slammed the table angrily and said, "What if it is found out? If found out, will the crime be placed on you or on me?"

The young man in white clothes said with a sly smile on his face: "My lord, this is the fact. At this moment, we should focus on the overall situation. If your lord can successfully capture the little princess, someone will come from the Northern Emperor Kingdom." Accept your lord's orders"

Lu Yu's face darkened, like a frustrated rubber ball, and he said dejectedly: "That's the only way it can be. Do you have a plan? This matter is extremely urgent, and we really can't wait for a moment."

The middle-aged man in black robe smiled lightly and said: "As long as you can lure the two women around the little princess away, we can easily capture the little princess."

Lu Yu frowned, slammed the table, and said: "Okay, during the Ghost Festival in a few days, I will lead the little princess out of the palace. You can wait for the opportunity."

Since Liu Sha was seriously injured, Guo Yu and others have been living in an inn not far from the palace, but they have also stopped. This is naturally related to the martial arts performed by Yu Zun that day. A man wearing a red robe The handsome man was standing in front of the window looking at the bustling street. Next to the man stood a thin and rather cold-looking man.

The man in red robe had a slight smile on his eyebrows and said, "Tai Xuan, should we go back home?"

Yuan Taixuan frowned and said, "Your Highness, why do you see me?"

The man in red robe raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Don't you think that the boy who injured Liu Sha that day was a person?"

Yuan Taixuan looked a little gloomy and said: "Your Highness doesn't know something. The boy who fought with me at Lingmeng Mountain that day was that young man."

"Oh? The serious injuries you suffered were actually due to him?" The man in red robe looked at Yuan Taixuan with interest and said.

"It was him. Although I was under the evil spell of the Nightmare that day, I still had some vague consciousness. The spell he performed was indeed extremely extraordinary."

This red-robed man called His Highness is indeed Han Xulie, the current crown prince of the Wu Kingdom. On weekdays, he occasionally exchanges martial arts with Yuan Taixuan.

Therefore, he is also familiar with Yuan Taixuan's personality. Hearing the words "really extraordinary" from Yuan Taixuan's mouth is enough to attract Han Xulie's attention.

Han Xulie sighed and said, "Doesn't that mean that I, Mr. Han, will inevitably miss Princess Min?"

"That's not necessarily the case. Your Highness, let's see who is downstairs?" Yuan Taixuan said with a smile on his face.

He, the infatuated Crown Prince, only glanced at Min Meng during the feast of hundreds of nations in the Eastern Barren Territory when he was a child, and remembered her deeply. In the past ten years, he has never remembered her. He had forgotten her, but the longing in his heart became more and more profound.

Now, standing in front of the beautiful woman, I can only watch her from a distance, which makes no one feel better.

Han Xulie's mind froze, and then a hint of joy overflowed from his heart. If the girl in the goose-yellow dress was not Min Meng, who was she?

However, this joy only lasted for a moment. The moment the girl walked into the alley, a middle-aged man in black robe came from behind Min Meng and gave Min Meng a slight blow. Min Meng was like a wilting flower. Lying like a child, softly in the middle-aged man's arms.

Han Xulie was startled in his heart, but he didn't see any spells he performed, leaving only a wooden window that was blown open and closed by the wind. The next moment, he was already fighting with the man in black robes.

Han Xulie's martial arts is more than one level higher than Yan Ranche's. Even if the man in black robes uses the unpredictable puppet technique, it is difficult for him to survive hundreds of moves in Han Xulie's hands. When the man in black robe could no longer hold on, a young man in white plain clothes descended from the sky on a paper kite. Yuan Taixuan felt anxious in his heart, and when he was about to pull away, a flash of lightning seemed to flash in front of his eyes.

The electric light flashed from the eaves with a whooshing sound, and then shot straight to the sky with another whooshing sound. However, the young man in white clothes who was swaying down was only slightly caught by the frowning electric light. The clothes were already blood red.

The next moment, a huge force pulled the young man in white and he suddenly fell to the ground.
