"Maybe, maybe not."
Lin Xingzhou asked back: "When the heroine came back from overseas, did she want to make up for her regrets and remarry your...senior brother?"
When he said this, he felt really sour in his heart.
Taiwei shook her head and said calmly: "Senior brother already has someone he likes. I came back this time just because I wanted to come back. I have never thought about getting married."
She has never regretted her choice.
This heart is just a sword. Even if she likes someone, she will never marry her husband, raise her children, and carry on the family line. That is not her pursuit.
To her, her senior brother was just a special passer-by.
Lin Xingzhou breathed a sigh of relief and was secretly happy, feeling that he still had a chance.
Haha, I don't know how blind her senior brother is, he can't even look down on such a charming woman, so he just got an advantage.
"Nvxia, in fact, your longing may not necessarily mean you like me, for example -"
Suddenly, Taiwei stopped, her eyes suddenly became sharp, and her slender jade-like fingers were already pressed on the hilt of the sword.
The wind between heaven and earth seemed to have stopped suddenly. A few fallen leaves floated down, but they were chopped into powder by the invisible sword energy in mid-air and scattered invisible.
Lin Xingzhou and the others suddenly felt stiff, as if they were being pointed at thousands of sharp swords, and every inch of their skin felt the sharp sword intent.
When Taiwei's sword broke through the armor eighty-six times before, because they were far apart, although they were shocked, they didn't have such an intuitive feeling. Now they know how powerful it is.
Just the trace of sword intent that escapes makes people feel like falling into an ice cave, with a cold light on their backs.
Lin Xingzhou had no doubt that as long as the opponent drew his sword, his head would move.
"Female... Heroine, even if you don't agree with what I say, there's no need to--"
"Shut up."
Taiwei's voice was indifferent and she said: "There is a smell of blood in the military camp, a very strong smell of blood."
The three of them looked at each other, then raised their guard at the same time, and walked cautiously towards the military camp.
Entering the camp, they suddenly felt numb.
Not only was there not a single living soldier inside, but the ground was full of broken armor and weapons. What was even more horrifying was the bloody flesh piled messily on the ground.
An arm on the east side, a leg on the west side...
There was a sound underfoot.
Lin Xingzhou's face turned green. It turned out that he accidentally stepped on an eyeball, and the juice flew everywhere and the smell was extremely fishy.
Even though the three of them are all heroes who have been in the arena for a long time and are accustomed to being killed, at this moment they also felt a nauseating feeling that they wanted to vomit, their faces turned black, and they walked with fear.
Only Taiwei was calm and composed, walking quietly in this hell on earth with sharp eyes.
She was looking at a head. It was the head of a young man with very handsome features, but his eyes were still open at the moment, and his eyes were full of horror, as if he had seen something extremely frightening.
"He was very scared. Judging from the wounds on his neck, it seemed that he had been bitten off by some wild beast."
Taiwei analyzed.
Lin Xingzhou said in disbelief: "What ferocious beast can bite off everything below a person's neck?"
Monk Zhending, who was born in Shaolin, recited the Buddha's name and said: "Maybe... it's a demon."
After saying this, Lin Xingzhou's expression changed drastically.
Those who practice martial arts, even if they face well-trained Turkic soldiers, can fight one against ten, but if they face those weird monsters...
Before the Tang Dynasty set up the star formation to drive away demons, people like them had to go around wherever they heard there were demons.
Even if it's just a little demon.
"Strange, why is there such a small swamp in the military camp? And...it smells so bad!"
They saw some small swamps scattered throughout the military camp, which were so rancid that Lin Xingzhou and the others felt dizzy and sick just by smelling them from a distance.
Gulu...
The swamp is still bubbling.
"Taiweixia, you come from a Taoist sect, but do you know what monsters can create swamps?"
The mad swordsman Shen Tuxiong had already pulled out his machete. There was a trace of blood on the blade that could not be washed away. It was the result of killing too many people. The evil spirit was hidden, and it had a good restraint effect on ordinary monsters and ghosts.
He had served as a general in his early years, and his thirty-six-step wind-splitting sword technique was extremely fierce, killing countless thieves.
Taiwei thought about it seriously and said: "There are at least a thousand people stationed in a military camp, and they are all well-trained soldiers. After forming a battle formation, the killing power is enough to restrain the great demon in the Yin Shen realm, but It still ended like this, which shows that the monster may be in the Yangshen realm."
Yangshen realm!
Hearing these three words, Lin Xingzhou and the others turned pale with fright, and even the furious Shen Tuxiong felt a little cold.
For people like them, the Yin God Realm is already a legend, and the Yang God Realm is the land of immortals and divine dragons who never see their tail!
You must know that even Li Daoxuan, the master of the Tang Dynasty, is only in the Yangshen realm.
Taiwei continued her analysis: "The Great Yang God Demon can also create swamps, which reminds me of a legendary monster from ancient times."
"What monster?"
Taiwei's eyes narrowed and she uttered two words.
"Xiang Liu."
Xiang Liu was a famous monster in ancient times. "The Classic of Mountains and Seas: Overseas Northern Classic" said that "it has a snake body with nine heads and can eat countless people. Wherever it goes, it will become a country."
Legend has it that it is a subordinate of the water god Gonggong. It is huge and cruel, and can forage on nine mountains at the same time!
When Dayu controlled the water, it caused a huge flood to stop it. So Dayu used his divine power to kill it, but found that its blood smelled fishy, and the land where it flowed was barren. The saliva it shed when it was dying formed a huge venom swamp. !
Dayu filled in the swamp three times but it collapsed three times, so he had to open it into a pond and build a high platform there to worship the gods.
Lin Xingzhou shook his head and said: "The heroine and Xiang Liu were killed by Dayu, how could they still appear here?"
The other two also nodded.
Taiwei said lightly: "I also hope that the monster is not Xiang Liu, otherwise..."
She lowered her head to the ground beneath her feet and said something that made the three people's hair stand on end.
"According to records, Xiangliu often does not leave immediately after eating, but goes underground to rest and wait for the next hunt."
For a moment, the three of them felt their hearts briefly stop.
"Actually, it's very simple to verify whether it's Xiang Liu."
Taiwei picked up a spear from the ground and said: "Xiang Liu is most taboo about being disturbed when he is resting. You three, stay away and hide."
Lin Xingzhou and the other three looked at each other in confusion.
"Hero, what are you doing?"
Taiwei did not answer, but the sword light flashed in her eyes, and the spear in her hand was suddenly filled with invisible sword intent, like a divine sword that could split mountains and rocks!
boom!
The spear thrust downwards suddenly, and the hard earth was like tofu under the tip of the spear. With a roar, the spear penetrated into the ground, cracking the earth and breaking rocks, making it indestructible.
It was like a steel needle dropped vertically into the soft tofu.
Ten feet, twenty feet, thirty feet...
Fifty feet underground, the spear finally stopped.
It was not because the sword power was gone, but because it hit something harder than black iron. First, the tip of the gun turned into fragments, and then the gun barrel made of waxwood cracked inch by inch and turned into powder.
Only the invisible sword intent was still there, dispersing in form but staying in spirit, stabbing hard at the hard spot.
Roar!
The next moment, in the vast land, I remembered a roar of shock and anger, and then the ground under my feet began to crack, like an earth dragon turning over and mountains and rivers shifting.
Lin Xingzhou felt anxious and hurriedly ran towards Taiwei.
The ground cracked under her feet, and a huge and terrifying figure emerged from it. It was a large snake, about dozens of feet long, covered with blue-black scales, and exuding a strong fishy smell.
The most terrifying thing is that its head, although it has the head of a snake, vaguely resembles a human face, especially the snake eyes, which hide the chilling coldness and bloodthirsty.
It opened its big mouth and stood tall, looking down at Taiwei like a god. The saliva flowing from its mouth fell to the ground, forming small swamps.
There was a deep sword mark on the snake demon's neck, and black blood continued to flow out, corroding the ground until not a single blade of grass could grow.
Roar!
The snake demon bit Taiwei. The huge snake mouth was like a black hole exuding a strong smell, and its sharp fangs were vaguely visible.
"careful!"
Lin Xingzhou rushed towards Taiwei, trying to hold her and escape using Qinggong.
He didn't know what was wrong with him. He would risk his life for a woman he had only known for a few days. It was really irrational.
At the same time, he also knew that Taiwei's martial arts were too powerful, and her sword heart was as unchanging as the ice and snow on the mountain. If he wanted to impress the other party and defeat that senior brother, he had to risk his life.
To die under the peonies is to be a ghost.
Taiwei didn't even look at him, her bright sword eyes looked at the snake demon like a giant beast hanging from the sky, her palm gently pressed on the hilt of the sword.
A ray of breeze blew the hair on her forehead, and her black and white robe floated gently.
Just when the snake demon was about to swallow her, a clear and loud sword sound sounded.
Clang!
A ray of snow-white sword light emerged, not dazzling, just a faint line, so condensed that it was almost invisible.
Like the first ray of the rising sun.
It's like the last rays of the setting sun.
Roar!
The snake demon roared again, but this time it was not a demonstration, but a miserable cry.
A red line emerged from its neck, and its cold and bloodthirsty pupils first showed horror, and then deep fear, with very human emotions.
The sound of the long sword being sheathed sounded softly, like spring water flowing under the moonlight.
Taiwei's floating hair returned to calmness, and her sharp sword eyes gradually faded away, and the sword energy around her body was deeply hidden, not even a trace was revealed.
Boom!
The huge snake head hit the ground, the neck was bloody and bloody, and the incision was as smooth as a mirror.
Perhaps it was God's will, but the head of the snake demon that was decapitated by a sword happened to roll together with the head of the soldier who was still waiting to die.
One is as big as a mountain, the other is as small as dust, but they both die in the same way.
Taiwei Yu stood by the pit, with an outstanding figure, her strong robes flowing, outlining graceful arcs, her slender jade hands still pressing on the hilt of the ancient black sheath sword, black and white.
She turned slightly sideways, her clear eyes looking at Lin Xingzhou, who had just reached half way and opened his arms, her voice calm.
"What are you doing?"
Lin Xingzhou stood blankly in the wind, as if he was petrified. An indescribable embarrassment spread in his heart, making his toes feel the urge to touch the ground.
"Well...I want to save you..."
"Thank you, but it's not necessary. Just hide yourself."
"Hasn't this snake demon been killed by you? Then why are you hiding?"
Lin Xingzhou stepped forward to observe the still squirming snake head. This was the first time for him to meet a monster in his life, so he was naturally very curious.
Taiwei shook her head.
"It's not over yet."
Lin Xingzhou was stunned for a moment, and just when he was about to speak, he felt the earth shook violently again, cracks sprouted up, and a hill in the distance collapsed.
Boom!
Eight huge snake heads rushed out from the ground, roaring to the sky, and a snake body with its head cut off. The flesh and blood swelled at the incision, and a new head grew out in a short time.
Nine-headed snake body, eighteen lantern-like scarlet snake eyes stared at Taiwei closely, showing hatred and bloodthirsty.
The pain of decapitation completely awakened it from its deep sleep!
"Xiang...Xiang Liu!"
Lin Xingzhou was so frightened that his legs became weak. He was too small in front of this majestic and terrifying giant beast. The fear brought by the giant beast made him tremble uncontrollably.
Shameful, really shameful!
He tried hard to control his fear, but found that no matter how anxious he was, his body kept shaking and it was difficult to move.
Roar!
This time, Xiang Liu seemed to have learned his lesson. Instead of getting close, he opened his big mouth and sprayed streams of ocean towards Tai Wei.
That's the flood it summoned. Different from ordinary water flow, this brown flood is bitter, spicy, and extremely corrosive. Even an iron man will turn into a pool of molten iron within a moment if he falls into it. !
The nine jets of water really came from the sky like the roar of a great river, flooding the vegetation and camps and eroding everything.
Only Taiwei stood tall, and the flood was split by an invisible sword force three feet in front of her, just like the river changed its course and the ocean was diverted.
"Help!!!"
Crazy Blade Shen Tuxiong and Monk Zhending hurriedly ran behind Tai Wei, their faces turning pale.
They finally understood that facing Xiang Liu, the only way to save their lives was by following this mysterious woman.
Taiwei frowned slightly, but her jade hand on the sword hilt did not move.
What she practices is the indomitable killing swordsmanship. She can open mountains when encountering mountains and cut off water when encountering water. Normally, she can cut a flood in half with her sword power, and even the water flow cannot gather within months.
But these brown floods hid some extraordinary demonic power. Not only could they corrode the mountains, rivers and vegetation, but even her honed sword power could slowly corrode them, making it impossible to completely cut them open.
If she were overseas, she would have flown into the sky, drawn her sword, and fought hard, but now that there were three mortals behind her to protect, it was inevitable that there would be some constraints.
She is a sword cultivator, but she is not cold and heartless. She was born in Longhu Mountain and received orthodox Taoist education from an early age. She must try to protect the innocent as much as possible.
What's more, after getting along with each other these days, Lin Xingzhou and the three of them are pretty good-natured. They come from rough backgrounds but care about their country. They took risks and went deep into the Turks to gather information. For senior brothers, they are also considered to be meritorious people...
Wow!
Seeing the flood filling the sky, the water was coming, completely surrounding the four of them.
Taiwei clenched the hilt of the sword, her eyes narrowed.
In this case, let's use that move, even though it's not completely perfected yet.
A golden sword light began to appear in her eyes, which was extremely sharp. The ancient sword in the sheath was also trembling, and even a slight crack appeared on the sword.
Just then, a thunder sounded.
Boom!
Thunder tore through the sky and struck Xiang Liu's body.
In the thunder clouds, a figure loomed.
Taiwei's eyes lit up.
"It's the thunder method of Longhu Mountain."
…
Thanks to Quqing Buyu for the 1317 reward, and thanks to Kaisuo Mianwen for the 130 reward. Thank you!
