Daozhang Zhao let the rain water him and stood quietly on the treetop with his slender swords in hand, preparing to meet the old woman in coir raincoat who was chasing after him in the air.
The old woman stopped ten meters away, wearing a cane, a raincoat and a bamboo hat. She could only be seen as a shadow in the dark night, but Zhao Zhengli could still think of her old face like a dried radish.
She jumped up in the air and chopped off the bush with her staff, then stood firmly on the wooden post and looked at him. She took off the wine bottle from her waist and took a sip. She said in a hoarse accent: "Those two ladies went up the mountain in vain. Yesterday the head of Emei We are going to the east to support your other team. According to time calculation, we should be fighting with those five grandmasters at this moment."
Although Zhao Zhengli was disappointed, he was not in a hurry. He could still wait for Li Zhanyi behind him.
However, the old woman spoke again: "The Emei junior behind him should have been held back by the master of Wolong Villa, so don't expect it."
Zhao Zhengli sneered at the rain: "It seems you are quite well prepared!"
The old woman thought that telling him this would anger him, but it obviously had no effect at all. Could it be that something else had been missed?
Zhao Zhengli naturally had the worst plan, and he had no burden at the moment. Although he could not defeat the opponent, it should not be a big problem for him to escape with his life as a middle-grade master. The drag here was to let the two sisters Biyu and Birou go up the mountain to deliver the message and let the Emei sect prepare for defense. , lest he run away, the old woman went up the mountain in anger to destroy the mountain gate.
The old woman was unwilling to reveal the information again, hoping to anger the other party: "I forgot to tell you that Governor Liu not only has contacts with the surviving members of my Nanzhao Kingdom, but also colluded with the Tubo Imperial Master. He has been planning this since his father. Get rid of the Jianghu forces that hinder him in Shu. Originally, the Jianghu in Shu could be stable for a few years, but you guys made a fuss and had to end it early. Situ Jianzhuang will be removed from the Jianghu tonight."
Zhao Zhengli's eyelids twitched, smelling a long-planned conspiracy.
When he heard that he had colluded with the Tubo Imperial Guard, Zhao Zhengli couldn't relate to it, so he squeezed out from between his teeth: "Colluding with the barbarians, it is not a pity to chop his head eight times for this crime."
This is a more unforgivable crime than colluding with the survivors of the Nanzhao Kingdom. After the Nanzhao Kingdom is destroyed, no matter how much trouble is caused, there will be no serious disaster.
However, the Tubo Yi people are actually a big country in the west, and they border on Shu. If something unexpected happens, the people of Shu will definitely suffer. The Liu family's killing of ten tribes is not enough to anger the people.
The old woman had noticed the change in his mood from his breath, and she was obviously very satisfied with being able to destroy the other person's mood.
If the state of mind is chaotic, the state will be chaotic, and it is impossible to exert super-level strength. This is also the reason why the old woman spends time and anger, so that she can have the upper hand in the subsequent battle.
Even though the other party is young, she knows the results of the battle in the past few days clearly. Even the old woman who is in the Grand Master realm does not dare to take too many risks. After all, she is in the fake realm and has flaws in her cultivation realm.
Obviously the old woman wanted to reveal more information or make the other party understand: "Are the Governor Liu and his son you see on the surface stupid and incompetent? If they are really stupid and incompetent, how can they squeeze out their colleagues in Shu County and cover the sky with one hand?"
This question really stopped Daochang Zhao, and he was also frightened by the Liu family's father and son's hidden ambition.
The old woman continued: "Actually, it's your Qingguo Emperor's fault. Just rehabilitate him. He wanted to reduce the power of the vassal, which made the Jiedushi and Zhou Mu of Shu secretly rebel. In fact, they were very wise and took their lives as slaves for the emperor." If the chess pieces guarding the border are not placed well, they will be cut off from the vassal, so it is easier to establish one's own business."
Zhao Zhengli didn't care about the temple affairs at all. The only thing he could do at the moment was to stop it and make the Shu land peaceful and Qingcheng Mountain quiet. But it seemed difficult. The only way was to spread the news to the court.
Thinking of this, he didn't stop. He held the sword in both hands and struck smartly. The sword energy, as long and thin as a rainbow, penetrated the layers of rain curtains and headed towards the old woman. The old woman carried a cane with one hand and with a flash of light, Haoran's energy carried the rain and directly defeated the two of them. Tao sword energy.
She let out a strange laugh: "Hey, the little Taoist is in a hurry? Do you want to report the news? Don't you know that your Qingguo Northern Expedition to the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun came back without any results? At this moment, the whole country needs to recuperate, even if you know the situation in Shu, it is estimated There is nothing you can do. If you force the troops to go south, not to mention the disapproval of the Shu governor who covers the sky with one hand, it may also provoke the trend of Tubo to attack south. At that time, there will be a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood under your feet, and you will It’s the origin of everything.”
Zhao Zhengli gradually calmed down from his anger. The old witch's talk was only confusing her own mood. If she was really sure, why would she bother talking to him?
At this moment, Zhao Zhengli suddenly sneered: "The survivors of the Nanzhao Kingdom are also rich in great masters of the Pseudo Realm?"
As soon as these words came out, the old woman trembled, and pointed her crutch in the air with a sullen face: "Yellow-mouthed kid, the old woman is just trying to make you understand, that's all."
The old woman originally wanted to disturb the other party's mood, but her weakness was poked instead. Obviously she should have taken action earlier, secretly regretting that it would have changed if she was too late!
At this moment, Zhao Zhengli stabilized his mood. Facing the old woman's finger force, his eyes showed madness, and he planned to fight head-on to confirm his suspicion.
"Bang!"
He struck out a probing sword, and two streams of true energy collided in the air, briefly illuminating the pitch-black night rain. The aftermath pushed down a large area of jungle shrubs. Zhao Zhengli was deeply imprinted inside the mountain, and he held two thin handles in ragged clothes. sword.
The corners of the bloody mouth rose slightly. The old witch's realm was indeed flawed. Although she was suffering from internal injuries, she felt the strength of the other party from the previous blow. She was also glad that she did not strike with all her strength, otherwise she would be half dead at this moment.
The old woman in the distance was dumbfounded. She could easily dodge this blow, so why should she resist it? On second thought, I regretted not using my full strength.
Then she dodged and hit Zhao Zhengli in the pit. Taoist priest Zhao suddenly moved sideways to avoid the old woman's full blow, and then jumped up violently, holding two swords to meet the old woman from the side: "Old witch, fake You dare to pull the tiger's skin to pull the banner?"
The old woman held a cane and handed it over to him: "Hmph! It's more than enough to kill your little middle-grade master."
There was endless fighting in the mountains and forests at night, with transformed crutches and transformed sword energy destroying bushes, leaving only the sound of "bang bang bang bang" in the night sky as the energy collided with the weapons.
After fighting for more than sixty moves, Zhao Daochang could not overcome the gap between his realm and actual combat experience. He suffered repeated setbacks and suffered scars. The old woman lost due to her old age and few injuries, but compared with Zhao Zhengli, it was barely negligible.
The old woman resented that the other party relied on his youth to fight at close quarters like a madman. Every time he was shot down by her staff, the next second he attacked with explosive force, leaving her with no time to use the poison.
If this continues, it will naturally be detrimental to the elderly woman.
"Bang, bang!"
The old woman endured being stabbed with a sword and received a slap as the price, and used all her strength to knock the lunatic off into the forest with a stick. Then she held the cane in both hands and swung out several feet of transformation energy to replenish it.
Only the sound of "Whoosh!" was heard, and Zhao Zhengli, who was shot down into the jungle, also used the "One Way to Transform Ten Thousand" in the world-destroying strike "Shouwu Zhixu" at the same time.
Nearly a thousand sword qi slashed against the transformed zhenqi crutch. The collision between the two was like a comet explosion. There was a loud "rumbling" in the night sky, lighting up half of the Emei night sky. The huge zhenqi aftermath blasted the mountain more than ten meters away. There were deep cracks, and no vegetation within hundreds of meters could survive.
The old woman panicked in mid-air and retreated hastily, but she was still injured internally by the aftermath. It was obvious that the other party was a middle-level master, so why was her understanding of Tao vaguely better than hers? Even if she is a pseudo-grandmaster, she is still a grandmaster. She has murderous intentions towards the young man below her, and is afraid that if she misses today, it will be difficult to sleep well in the future.
Zhao Zhengli below was hit into the jungle mountain with her staff, but it was a blessing in disguise that he was not seriously injured by the aftermath.
He stumbled out of the pit, and his internal injuries worsened due to repeated duels, and his body was also in severe pain. He cursed: "Damn it, the fake Grand Master can be so perverted."
At this moment, white mist rose in the dark forest. Zhao Zhengli looked around in confusion. It was still raining in the sky, but it had become lighter. The temperature difference was not big. Even if the fog started to form, it would not be so fast.
Thinking of the poisonous smoke released by the old woman's poisonous insects in the inn, he immediately covered his mouth and nose, and then jumped up to the treetop with his sword to look for the old woman. He saw her crushing the poisonous insects in the wind, and black smoke filled the air.
Zhao Zhengli didn't waste any time and struck her with a sword. The old woman was determined to kill him and threw up all kinds of Gu insects. The Gu insects exploded under the sword energy and turned into black mist in the night sky. Zhao Zhengli hurriedly grabbed it, but the old woman found the right moment and struck it into the black mist with her stick, and then fell into the jungle.
Daochang Zhao held his breath and was forced to inhale several puffs of poisonous gas. His eyes turned red. Regardless of the poisonous gas in the sky, he leaped forward and fought with his life with two swords. This frightened the old woman, who was suddenly shot out of the poisonous mist. Zhao Zhengli was not prepared at all. He originally thought that the opponent would avoid the poisonous gas in the jungle, but he thought of risking his life like this.
"Puff"
She hurriedly accepted the challenge, but Madman Zhao took the opportunity to stab her twice in a row. She suffered the pain and retreated, not forgetting to throw away the spare poison. Zhao Zhengli took the risk of inhaling the poison and struck out several times, and then used the sword instead of the spear. After launching the attack from behind, he followed up with another sword in the air, forming a triple kill formation.
The old woman held the crutch and defeated several palms in succession, and then turned sideways to avoid the incoming rapier. Zhao Zhengli's third rapier stabbed hard on the right shoulder with a "puff".
The old woman showed fear for the first time and was hit with three swords in a row. The young Taoist priest made it clear that he would fight her desperately. The other party had been poisoned and death would be a matter of time. However, she only had serious internal and external injuries, so she would not lose her life. She has a fear of death, and at this moment Zhao Zhengli has risked his life.
"Madman! Madman."
The old woman retreated continuously with her injured body. She originally just wanted to teach this junior from the Qingcheng Sect, but she unexpectedly thought that the situation would be a dead end.
How could Zhao Zhengli let her go? He was already prepared to fight to the death. The gap between the two realms was not very big, and the old woman was in the fake realm of a grand master. If she really encountered a middle-level master who was desperate, she would definitely pay a heavy price. The old woman was still looking forward to it. The plan was to restore the country, so they decisively turned around and fled. The two of them chased each other through the night sky.
After much thought, the Emei Sect decided to go down the mountain to support them. A group of female disciples rushed to the foot of the mountain and saw a bloody man covered in scars chasing an old woman in a raincoat holding a cane.
The leader of the Emei female disciple looked at Biyu and Birou in surprise: "Sisters from the Bi family, is this the life-threatening danger you two are talking about?"
At this moment, Biyu Birou was also puzzled. She was moved when she saw the traces of the battle near Emei. They stretched for hundreds of meters. The vegetation and jungles collapsed and were shattered. A large pit more than ten meters deep appeared in the center of the mountain. With a crack of more than ten feet.
