Under Gu Shengchao's questioning, Baili Huan gave up and did not say anything directly. Instead, he said slowly: "I just saw that your swordsmanship is exquisite. I wonder how my little brother's boxing and kicking skills are?"
The ancient sage was so anxious that he couldn't help but had no choice but to use the iron arm magical skill. The true energy condensed on the surface of the skin to form soft iron armor.
"What do you think of this kung fu brother?"
Seeing the armor protecting the body, Baili Huan was also surprised. He stepped forward and touched it, then pinched it, and said with envy: "Yes, it's good to be invincible first, and then you can protect yourself."
Feng Nanjing and Shen Cuo also touched and touched each other, and their admiration was beyond words.
"Brother, is there something unspeakable?" Gu Shengchao saw that his expression changed from worry to calmness, he must have something on his mind.
Baili Huan nodded and said, "I want to ask my little brother to help me fight."
"Through fire and water, I will not give up even if I die, whatever my brother orders me to do." Gu Shengchao stood up and solemnly promised.
Baili Huan was overjoyed and patted Gu Shengchao affectionately as he sat down: "It's not that serious. With your skills, I'll keep you safe."
"What's the matter? Please tell me, brother."
"I lost to the two pavilion elders from Yunqi Palace during the day, and I am feeling very angry. I plan to fight again tomorrow. With my brother's help, I will definitely help my eldest brother get rid of this sullen feeling in his heart."
After hearing this, Gu Shengchao felt relieved: "My mission has been wronged this time, and it has something to do with the Serang Kingdom. If my brother doesn't tell me, I will also cause trouble for them."
"My little brother guessed right. The person who framed your mission is indeed someone from Yunqi Palace in the West Cold Country." Bailihuan said seriously.
"How?" Gu Shengchao knew that he must have heard something.
Bailihuan came to the window and made sure there was no one outside, then sat down and whispered: "I visited the Xileng Kingdom's station tonight, and overheard two elders discussing countermeasures to sow discord between Beihu and Dawu Dynasty. relationship. The first step has been accomplished. First, assassinate King Aries, King Zuo Xian’s subordinate, and then lead the people pursued by King Zuo Xian to your mission camp, making King Zuo Xian hate you to the bone. "
"The second step is to assassinate an important figure in your mission and introduce the people you are chasing to King Zuoxian's residence. In this way, Beihu and Dawu dynasties will completely fall out. Let's not talk about trade for the time being. We must also fight against each other with military force, so that the country of Xileng can reap the benefits."
Baili Huan said angrily: "I didn't know it was related to the brothers at the time. If I knew that if I poisoned one of them first, the other would be easy to deal with, leaving them in disarray, and they wouldn't be able to pose a threat to your mission."
"Brother, it's serious. Tomorrow I will accompany him to the house for a fight. Let's settle the old and new grudges together."
"Okay." Baili Huan stood up, "Our Wu Sect and Yunqigong are already at odds with each other. The worst we can do is let them send troops to come and cause trouble for our Wu Sect."
Gu Shengchao also said bluntly: "My little brother has interacted with the outer courtyard of Yunqi Palace in Xileng Kingdom. Most of them are greedy and powerful villains, and their wealth has long been ruined."
He only talked about most of them, which excluded Shui Linglong, the dean of Yunqi Palace.
Shui Linglong taught him the basics of internal energy, especially the two books "Explanation of the Formula" and "Detailed Explanation of the Formula", which solved many of his doubts and worries.
The rapid development of Kung Fu today is closely related to these two books.
After bidding farewell to Baili Huan, Gu Shengchao was worried about the mission and rushed over to explain things clearly to Lu Shouwen.
Lu Shouwen did not dare to be careless and strengthened his vigilance overnight to prevent accidents.
Gu Shengchao returned to the guest room. As soon as he opened the door and left, Wan Yanxi had woken up from a deep sleep and rushed over with a scimitar in hand.
"Sister Wanyan, it's me." Gu Shengchao reminded in a low voice.
When he saw Wanyan Xi stop, he felt unhappy.
At the age when she is like a flower, she should be playing coquettishly and playfully in the arms of her parents. Even the unruly Yuchi Yao has Liu Ximei as her godmother to protect her. She is afraid of the dark and stays by her side to love her at night.
In appearance, Wanyan Xi is not much older than Yuchi Yao, but she has endured too much suffering and misfortune.
But reality did not knock her down. Instead, she relied on her own hard work and tenacity to survive.
"It's Brother Gu." Wan Yanxi sensed the presence of Gu Shengchao, put away her scimitar, and huddled in the corner.
After a few years of almost savage-like lifestyle, it was her safe haven.
Knowing that Wan Yanxi was exploring the world through perception, Gu Shengchao did not light the candle.
Now his eyes are sharp and he can see everything around him clearly as long as there is weak light.
After closing the door and lying on the earthen bed, he heard that Yan Xi was not asleep, so he asked: "Sister Wanyan, are you sleepy? I want to chat with you."
"Okay, you must speak to me in Beihu dialect." Wan Yanxi made the condition.
Gu Shengchao knew that it was for his own good, so he told the news he heard in the mission camp in a sloppy Northern Hu dialect.
Before he had time to tell him the final answer he got from Baili Huan, Wan Yanxi had already said: "The possibility of King Zuoxian is unlikely. It should be the work of Xileng Kingdom."
"How do you know that?" Her judgment amazed Gu Shengchao.
"King Zuoxian has a high position and can influence Shan Yu's decision even without any strategy. But the West Cold Kingdom is different. They must use conspiracy and tricks to achieve their ulterior goals. I guess in the next step, they will definitely treat you The envoy will take action and then blame King Zuo Xian."
Wanyan Xi was smart, but Gu Shengchao had never expected such a miraculous plan, as if she had seen it with her own eyes.
"What Sister Wanyan said is absolutely true."
Gu Shengchao recounted the story of his encounter with Baili Huan, and then said: "From what you see, how should I respond to the enemy tomorrow?"
Wanyanxi thought for a while and said: "I don't know about the Yunqi Palace in Xileng State. Since your sworn brother can fight with two pavilion elders and escape unharmed, it's not a big deal for you two to join forces with them. Just go ahead and do it." Can."
The ancient sage suddenly realized: "Yes, why didn't I expect this?"
He humbly asked for advice: "Then what can I do specifically to make the people of Xileng take the initiative to reveal their conspiracy, so that the people of Beihu know about it and we are innocent?"
Silent, Wanyan Xi's breath was still so elusive that Gu Shengchao almost thought she was asleep.
After a cup of tea, Wanyan Xi opened her mouth. Her voice was as sweet and clear as a bird, which was completely incompatible with her maturity.
"We can only start with the prince of Sirang King."
"Do you want me to kidnap him? You can go tonight." Gu Shengchao thought it would work, so he kidnapped him secretly and tortured him to extract a confession, not afraid that he wouldn't tell.
After laughing, Wan Yanxi said: "That's not necessary. Tomorrow you go over to fight, and you must make it shocking. Only in this way will the troops from Beihu come over to stop them. Those two elders are no match for you. When the officers and soldiers from Beihu arrive, you He tried to find a way to make the prince of Sirang Kingdom admit that he ordered it. If Mr. Ge still has a trace of loyalty, he will definitely bear all the responsibility. In this way, the face of Sirang Kingdom is saved and the matter is solved. All it takes is Mr. Ge's head to perfectly resolve everything. Wouldn’t everyone be happy with the incident?”
Wan Yanxi's words made Gu Shengchao amazed. He really wanted to hug her and kiss her several times to express his gratitude.
Fortunately, his rationality suppressed his impulse. He didn't know whether the elusive scimitar would leave scars on his chest if he did so.
"Thank you Miss Wanyan." This is the only gratitude Gu Shengchao can do at the moment.
"Brother Gu, you're welcome." Wanyanxi smiled sweetly. Only at this moment did she unintentionally reveal the innocence of the little girl.
When he woke up, Gu Shengchao first bought a lot of food for Wan Yanxi, including cooked meat, pickled eggs, steamed buns of various flavors and various meat patties. He filled them with water and put them under the table.
"Girl, it's better not to go out much these days. This is the royal court, so it might not be appropriate for people to recognize you."
Knowing that Gu Shengchao was doing it for her own good, Wanyanxi readily accepted: "Brother Gu, feel free to go out, and I will feel at ease at home."
They went to the inn to find Baili Huan, and the two of them headed straight to the Xileng Kingdom's headquarters.
The prince of Sireng King spent a lot of money and occupied a large house in the city. It looked like the residence of Beihu's dignitaries.
They arrived early and the door was closed.
Gu Shengchao was not polite, kicked the door to pieces, and walked in with a shy stomach.
He doesn't have a big belly, and the way he walks makes people laugh.
"Be brave, this is the headquarters of the Serang Kingdom, don't retreat yet."
More than a dozen guards armed with spears and swords surrounded them, trying to capture them.
The little guards were no match for them. Not long after, they were lying on the ground. Two of them were deliberately thrown out of the wall by Gu Shengchao and thrown into the street to let more people know.
The wails of pain echoed throughout the courtyard.
"Be presumptuous, let's see who doesn't want to live anymore."
A sturdy figure appeared in the corridor on the second floor.
"He is Nangong Yan, the elder of the courtyard in Yunqi Palace." Baili Huan told Gu Shengchao in a low voice.
Baili Huan took a few steps forward and said loudly: "It turns out it's you, little brat, and the other one came out to die together. We, the Wu Sect, are at odds with you."
There was a rush of wind in his ears, and Gu Shengchao also sensed someone jumping out of the window in the wing. He pulled Baili Huan back a few steps to avoid the sharp edge.
More than a dozen darts passed in front of him, but all of them missed.
"This person is another pavilion elder named Zhang Zhenhuan."
As soon as Baili Huan finished speaking, Zhang Zhenhuan had already stabbed him with his sword. Nangong Yan, who was above him, was not to be outdone. He waved his sword and floated down. He had already thrust out more than ten swords in mid-air.
"Young man from the Wu Sect, don't be arrogant. I let you escape yesterday, but today I will definitely kill you." Nangong Yanjian said as he arrived.
"I'll deal with Nangong Yan, and that one belongs to you." Baili Huan waved his sword to greet him, clearly delineating his duties with Gu Shengchao.
Gu Shengchao held the sword in his left hand and used the Phoenix Dance sword technique to stop Zhang Zhenhuan.
At this time, Gu Shengchao was unwilling to use the Iron Arm Magic Kung Fu. Although the kung fu was good, it would seriously affect his perception. He wanted to find out where the Prince of Sireng was in advance and take advantage of it before the soldiers from Beihu arrived.
Zhang Zhenhuan's swordsmanship was erratic and very different from the swordsmanship of the Dawu Dynasty.
"Qingyun Sword Technique, Ziyun Dart, and Yunqigong's Qinggong Drifting on Water." These were the three secrets of Yunqigong that the ancient sage Chao heard mentioned by Yang Qianhui when he was in Xileng Kingdom.
It seems that this Zhang Zhenhuan has learned the true inheritance of Qingyun swordsmanship. Fortunately, Gu Shengchao's Fengwu swordsmanship is even better, and he gradually gains the upper hand.
He secretly watched and saw that Baili Huan over there was also pressing forward step by step. Nangong Yan was no match for him.
Everything at the moment was completely guessable by Wanyan Xi.
