In the middle of the procession is a large sedan chair carried by sixteen people. The horse teams in front and behind are arranged neatly. Everyone holds a torch high and is ready to go.
The strange thing is that the sedan was not lifted when it landed, and it always swayed slightly even if no one touched it.
From time to time, unsuppressible gasps came from the sedan.
The sedan was not airtight, Gu Shengchao could sense the two auras inside. One breath is calm, and the other breath is impetuous, with great ups and downs.
Wan Yanxi's face suddenly turned red beside Gu Shengchao, and she was extremely shy, as if she wanted to escape from here.
The two have different perception methods. Gu Shengchao can only perceive different auras, but Wan Yanxi can perceive the specific shape of things, which is almost the same as what can be seen with the eyes.
Gu Shengchao immediately understood that the two people in the sedan were definitely doing something messy.
While waiting patiently, it was also painful for a quarter of an hour.
The sedan curtain lifted a corner, and Zhao Jin, the female camp master of the Tianqing Gang, emerged from the sedan with disheveled clothes and disheveled hair.
She staggered to the outside of the sedan chair with her legs crossed, and then saluted: "Thank you for your favor, the master. I will send you to the master Zhao Jinggong."
"Get up the sedan and set off."
Someone spoke in the sedan chair, and the bearers lifted the sedan chair. The horse team moved forward slowly, protecting the sedan chair in the middle as it moved further and further away.
Seeing that the team was gone, Zhao Jin straightened up, straightened her clothes, and walked away slowly with her waist hunched over.
"What should we do next?" Zhuang Lutao asked for advice.
Shui Linglong pondered for a moment and said: "Looking at the direction they are traveling, they should go through the west gate. There is only one way out of the west gate. There is a canyon about five miles away. We can set up an ambush there in advance. Although it is a good time now, the streets are narrow. If you accidentally hurt the people, the gain will outweigh the loss."
Gu Shengchao agreed: "Then let's set off now and get ahead of them."
There were very few officers and soldiers patrolling at night on the tall city wall. Gu Shengchao and a few people jumped over easily, and no one could notice it.
The small town was built on a pass in the rolling mountains. It was a short walk along the winding mountain road. Dangerous peaks stood on both sides, and a narrow valley in the middle was passable. It was the perfect place for an ambush.
The four of them separated, Shui Linglong and Zhuang Lutao on the left hillside, Gu Shengchao and Wanyanxi on the right hillside, each preparing to wait for the Tianqing Gang team to arrive.
The side of Shui Linglong was rugged with rocks, so the two moved boulders of different sizes and placed them on the hillside.
Ancient Sage Chao's side was dense with towering ancient trees, and he was full of internal energy. He summoned his sword and kept cutting, preparing many rolling logs.
Fire was dancing in the distance, and a team was approaching.
With uneasy anticipation, the team entered the canyon, especially the sedan in the middle carried by sixteen people, which was extremely eye-catching.
"Smash!"
Shui Linglong gave the order, and she and Zhuang Lutao dropped boulders one after another at the same time.
Gu Shengchao and Wan Yanxi on the opposite side were not to be outdone. They removed the wooden cushions and piled high rolling logs, pouring down and hitting the people in the canyon.
"Boom!"
"Bang!"
"oops!"
"Mom!"
The calls came and went.
The valley was narrow and unobstructed, and people had to fight with all their strength against falling boulders and thick trees.
Unfortunately, individual strength was weak after all. After the first wave of attacks, more than half of the Tianqing Gang's team had been killed or injured.
The canyon was littered with mutilated bodies.
Horrible.
Throwing down the last boulder, Shui Linglong held the sword, and Zhuang Lutao held the knife. The two of them floated down together, killing the sedan in the middle with the light of the sword and the shadow of the sword.
Gu Shengchao warned Wanyan Xi: "Tonight's life and death battle, don't show mercy."
"Understood." Wan Yanxi held a scimitar in each hand, drove the other six in the air in front of her, and rushed down the mountain.
Gu Shengchao held the sword in his left hand and used the "Feng Wu Sword Technique" to kill in another direction. The four of them surrounded the sedan in the middle of the canyon.
Although Wan Yanxi is blind, she can perceive all kinds of subtle movements of everyone nearby, which is wider than what people with normal eyesight can observe.
Without her having to do anything, the six scimitars flew around in the air driven by perception, making a horrifying "chirp, chirp" sound, ruthlessly harvesting the heads of those Tianqing Gang disciples who dared to rush forward.
In the blink of an eye, the huge team just now was dead, injured, and fled, leaving only the large sedan carrying the lone sixteen people in the middle.
Shui Linglong asked doubtfully: "Is there anyone else in the sedan?"
Gu Shengchao and Wan Yanxi nodded at the same time. They both sensed the danger hidden in the sedan in their own different ways.
Shui Linglong raised her hand and shot a dart into it.
Qingyun Sword Technique, Ziyun Dart, and Yunqigong's Qinggong Drifting on Water, these are Yunqigong's three unique skills. As an elder, Shui Linglong is naturally skilled in the use of darts. The darts are extremely fast but silent, making it hard to guard against.
Strangely, there was no sound in the sedan, and the dart seemed to have suddenly disappeared.
In an instant, murderous aura spread from the sedan, making several people shudder.
"Yes, you have great courage and martial arts. Our Tianqing Gang needs talents like you." His voice was not loud, but it could be clearly transmitted to everyone's ears, as if he was standing in front of him.
Not everyone can master this skill of transmitting sounds thousands of miles away. In addition to abundant internal strength, precise breath control, daily hard practice are important, and personal talent is also indispensable.
The tip of Shui Linglong's sword pointed in the direction of the sedan: "Bold demons, I, Yunqigong, have noticed you for a long time. You have done many evil things on weekdays. You secretly trade hibiscus paste and harm the people. You are a crime that cannot be punished."
Disdainful laughter came from the sedan: "Yunqigong, why are you allowed to do so many businesses, while we can only watch on the sidelines, helpless? It's not that you are colluding with the government to suppress and restrict others. People, guarantee the high profits of your franchise.”
"You are so outrageous. How can we, a well-known and decent sect, allow you to slander us? Look at the sword."
Shui Linglong jumped up and thrust her sword towards the sedan chair. The tip of her sword was only about three inches away from the curtain of the sedan chair. Something passed through the curtain of the sedan chair and flew towards her chest.
As a last resort, Shui Linglong had no choice but to block with her sword.
"Bang!"
Something hit her sword, sparks bursting out.
Except for Wan Yanxi, who was not disturbed, everyone else couldn't help but blink.
Shui Linglong was shocked to the point of numbness in her mouth. She almost lost her sword and flew straight back. The kite turned over in mid-air to adjust its posture, and then landed awkwardly on the ground without falling.
Looking at the thing that fell to the ground, it turned out to be the dart she had just thrown in.
The fact that the little dart can have such powerful force shows the inner strength of the person in the sedan chair.
Wan Yanxi sensed all this, and she waved her hand to control the three scimitars, first hovering around the sedan, and then whistling and slashing in from three directions at the same time.
Likewise, there was no movement in the sedan, as if nothing existed inside.
The three scimitars seemed to be hidden in the void.
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
The four people gathered around the sedan with solemn expressions, guarding against any accident.
The ancient sage was so lucky that he used the Iron Arm Magic Kung Fu. A layer of silver armor condensed on the surface of his skin, and he rushed over with the sword in his left hand.
It's only ten steps away from the sedan.
"Bang!"
The large sedan chair carried by sixteen people suddenly exploded, and the debris covered the sky and covered the people.
Several people have taken precautions and used their weapons to protect themselves.
The man in the sedan appeared, raised his hand, and Wan Yanxi slashed at Shui Linglong, Gu Shengchao, and Zhuang Lutao with the three scimitars he had just wielded.
The debris from the sedan arrived suddenly, and Wanyanxi suffered the most because she couldn't see it. She sensed every subtle change and could stop all the debris with a machete. The person in the sedan had already rushed to her eyes.
Wanyan Xi was horrified. She raised her hand and used the three scimitars above her head to slash at the incoming person. She stepped back.
She cannot see with her eyes and understands the world entirely through perception. The process from discovery to appearance of the man in the sedan was so sudden that it made her tremble.
She clenched the remaining two scimitars in her hands and concentrated on sensing the movement ahead.
The man in the sedan did not continue to rush over, but instead fought with Gu Shengchao.
Gu Shengchao had just been the closest, and he was frightened when he saw the man rushing out of the sedan. The man threw the scimitar for just a moment, looking like an afterimage, and then he came close to Wanyan Xi.
Fortunately, Gu Shengchao had the invulnerability skills. He ignored the machetes and debris hitting him, and used all his strength to catch up and stab the man in the back with his sword, forcing the man to turn around and resist, temporarily breaking Wanyan Xi's siege.
The man had no weapons with his bare hands, so he relied on his arms to resist the sword. After a few rounds, his sleeves were cut open by the sword blade, revealing the armor that tightly wrapped his arms.
Only then did Gu Shengchao rest assured that this person did not know the magic of iron arms and relied entirely on armor for protection.
Even so, Gu Shengchao's movements were a little slow, and he was punched in the right shoulder and took several steps back. Fortunately, I had the iron arm magic to protect my body, so there was no serious problem.
Seeing that Gu Shengchao had suffered a loss and was in danger, Zhuang Lutao struck out with his sword to stop the man.
Although Zhuang Lutao only had his left arm, his sword skills incorporated the essence of Feng Wu's sword skills, and his killing moves were always unexpected, making the man dare not take it lightly.
After several moves, there was a hole in Zhuang Lutao's right side. The man was too fast. Just as Zhuang Lutao was about to make amends, he was kicked in the right hip and fell to the left.
Shui Linglong released three darts in time to block the attack. The man waved his hand and caught them all. He retreated lightly to the original base of the sedan, stood with his hands behind his hands and looked at the few people with a smile.
"I like you who are brave, knowledgeable and decisive in killing. Although you killed my men, I don't blame you. Our Tianqing Gang already has ten top eunuchs and several young masters, but many of them are just people who are seeking fame and cannot be reused. I was happy to fight you just now. Let’s do this. From now on, the four of you will be the four guardians of my Tianqing Gang, and they will specially carry out assassination missions for me. How about that?”
"Fart." Shui Linglong scolded with disdain: "The evil ways are to bring trouble to the government and oppress the people. They will never benefit the people. You don't want us to be in the same nest as you."
"This female doll is interesting, what is your name?"
"It doesn't matter what my name is. Is your name Yu Zhenyu?" Shui Linglong stared at the man and asked righteously.
"Yes, my name is Yu Zhenyu. If you are willing to follow me, I will ensure that you will enjoy endless wealth and glory. I have many concubines, but they are all frivolous. If you are willing to marry me, I will definitely pamper you."
