The moment the weapons came into contact, the two sides' true energy collided violently. The cold air on the fine snow should have invaded the opponent's weapon, but it was blocked by a strong breath. Bai Yuehan turned over and backed away. After only one fight, he knew that the opponent's martial arts skills were much better than his own, and he was probably a master of transformation as Mu Chengfeng said. But Zhuang Xing couldn't get rid of his anger without killing him, so he struck out with all his strength again, and the sword stabbed out like a snake.
The other party also became serious, and the two briefly exchanged about ten moves. Bai Yuehan's attacks seemed to hit an indestructible wall, and they were still unable to break through the opponent's sword moves.
"Fairy, don't bother. Uncle Yan is a master of the Transformation Realm, and his skills are especially good at defense. Not to mention that your realm is not as good as Uncle Yan. Even if you are a master, it is not that easy to break through Uncle Yan's defense."
"Panshijian Yan Youcheng?"
"Exactly."
"Uncle Yan, take her, but don't hurt my little girl. The rest of you, get rid of those two, especially Mu Chengfeng. There should be another one hiding in the carriage. Anyway, kill them all. .”
Mu Chengfeng smiled contemptuously and stepped forward before the other person could take action. Bai Yuehan also took action at the same time. He just made two feints with his sword, and suddenly his body moved out of the way, and Mu Chengfeng's powerful palm came towards his face. Yan Youcheng couldn't return his sword in time, so he could only parry with his palm. Unexpectedly, the power of Mu Chengfeng's palm was completely beyond his expectation. The moment he touched the palm, a huge wave of true energy poured into his body. His internal organs were shaking violently, and he took three steps back.
Zhuang Xing was also shocked when he saw this. Although Mu Chengfeng's Thirteen Seals of Subduing Demons were amazingly powerful, it would not be able to knock Yan Youcheng away.
"Boy from the Mu family, you are actually close to the ability to transform."
"It's funny."
Mu Chengfeng didn't stop talking, and struck two more palms in succession. Yan Youcheng raised his sword to block the tiger's mouth, which was still numb from the force of the palms.
At this time, Bai Yuehan had retreated to the carriage, and had dealt with a group of minions from the Golden Knife Sect and the Huo Phosphorus Sect who had surrounded him from behind. Wei Nanguan, the master of the Golden Knife Sect, Xu Kai, and the two men who had been beside Zhuang Xing were left behind. An old man, four people surrounded her.
Chen Mobai was in great pain on the carriage. It was so tense outside, but he couldn't take action. It was not because he agreed to Bai Yuehan, but because Bai Yuehan tapped his acupuncture points just in case before leaving.
Outside the carriage, Mu Chengfeng had the upper hand for a while, and Yan Youcheng was so overwhelmed that he was unable to fight back, while Bai Yuehan barely managed to fight with the four opponents.
After all, Yan Youcheng is already a master in the realm of transformation, and the others are also in the realm of living appearance, while Bai Yuehan and Mu Chengfeng are only in the realm of living appearance, so it is obvious who is stronger and weaker. The fact that they were able to maintain a stalemate for such a long time was simply due to Weiyang Palace's superior martial arts skills and Mu Chengfeng's so-called secret method, which temporarily narrowed the gap between the two of them.
Although Mu Chengfeng's secret method can stimulate part of his potential in a short period of time and enhance his strength, Bai Yuehan relies on her own relatively rare ice phase energy to mediate with her opponents. But as time goes by, the gap between realm and number of people will become more and more obvious.
The Thirteen Seals of Subduing Demons is a profound martial art, which consumes a huge amount of energy. Although Mu Chengfeng seemed to have the upper hand in a fight, he was never able to defeat his opponent. Yan Youcheng also began to change from passive to active. Originally he did not dare to take the opponent's moves head-on, but now the two faced each other again, and it was Mu Chengfeng who was knocked back.
Although Bai Yuehan was not afraid of Wei Nanguan's heart-burning heart-burning palm, but with one against four, and the opponent's cultivation level was not inferior to his own, he gradually became weak.
"Resisting stubbornly is not just the difference between dying early and dying late." Seeing that he had the chance to win, Zhuang Xing began to sneer.
"What confidence did you say before?" Bai Yuehan asked in a low voice.
"Don't worry, it should be soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, the loud chirping of an eagle resounded through the air, and then the sound of horse hooves came towards them from far to near.
Not long after, a group of uniformed troops arrived, led by a young general with sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes. He was wearing a white eagle helmet with dragon scales and silver armor. He was holding an eight-foot silver spear. He pulled the reins and looked around at everyone.
"Who's blocking the way?" the young general asked.
"I am Zhuang Xing, the son of Marquis Zhuang of Yueyang City."
"Why are you blocking the way?"
"It's just some private matters, I don't want the general to worry about it."
The young general was hesitating about his letter when Mu Chengfeng came to the horse and said, "General, help me. The banker relies on his prominent family background to act tyrannically. I won't wait and will kill all of us."
"What's going on?"
"My younger brother was sick, and my sister and I wanted to take him to seek medical treatment. Unexpectedly, we met the young master of the Zhuang family on the way. Seeing my sister's beauty, we wanted to take over him. My ancestors also served in the army. Although we have some martial arts skills, they are all We are martial arts masters, and we are outnumbered. We are at our wits' end and the general has arrived. We hope that the general will do justice to us."
The young general approached the carriage, opened the curtain and saw a young man inside who was in poor health and seemed to be sick, so he asked Zhuang Xing, "Is this possible?"
Zhuang Xing thought to himself that Mu Chengfeng was really good at acting, but he was too lazy to explain so much. He just replied: "General, don't listen to this guy's nonsense. It is indeed just some private matters of my family. General, please do it yourself."
"Isn't the Yueyang Banker under the rule of Hao Kingdom?"
"General, does he know that I, the banker, am one of the twelve princes?"
Zhuang Xing was puzzled, these imperial soldiers never asked about Jianghu affairs, why did this man do so well today and kept asking about him. It's just that he didn't say what he just said. As soon as he said the words, the general suddenly raised his spear, and the soldiers behind him unfurled their weapons.
"Of course I know that relying on the merits of our ancestors to do evil will damage the reputation of our country. Today I want to see what your banker does in private!"
"you……"
Zhuang Xing never expected that a group of soldiers would pass by inexplicably and they would want to take care of this good thing. Even if he signed up for his family, he would not buy it at all. Although the Twelve Marquis is no longer an official in the court, he still has some influence, not only in the territories, but also many officials of the current court have contacts with the Twelve Marquis.
"Sir, could this leading general come from a powerful and famous family, or else..." Yan Youcheng said in a low voice.
"What else? Then we can just forget it. If we let them go, will they not seek revenge from me in the future?"
"Leave quickly!"
The general said, riding up and guarding the carriage behind him, with his silver spear standing beside him, he looked at Zhuang Xing and continued: "Does the banker still want to commit murder in front of me? Everyone obeys the order. If anyone dares to act rashly, Rectify the law on the spot.”
"only!"
"How dare you speak to my young master like that!"
The old man who was confronting Bai Yuehan saw the general's threats and was about to show his heart to protect his master. However, the young general just leaned up a little and let the opponent sneak attack. He then raised his silver spear with lightning speed and chased the opponent to stab him. , accompanied by a scream, the old man's arm was removed.
Not to mention Zhuang Xing, even Mu Chengfeng was a little dumbfounded by this scene.
Because of the old man's actions, the soldiers immediately surrounded the others. The young general looked down coldly at the old man who had just attacked him, and said without any emotion: "You see that I am young and not from the martial arts world, so you think I have no cultivation? If I had made such a hasty sneak attack, I would have died long ago on the battlefield. I don’t know how many times.”
When he looked at Zhuang Xing, his eyes became even sharper.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhuang Xing could only grit his teeth and said: "It was my lack of discipline that caused my subordinates to offend the general. Since the general has come forward today, I will give you face. Can I tell you the name of the general?"
"Yang Yunfei. If the banker wants to take revenge, the Shanghe Yang family is always waiting."
After leaving his name, the chilling air not only did not subside at all, but became even worse. This made Zhuang Xing take a breath of cold air, yelled, and evacuated with his people without looking back. People can only follow and leave in despair.
Yang Yunfei turned around and returned to the carriage.
After seeing the other party leave, Mu Chengfeng stepped forward to thank him.
"Who are you?" Yang Yunfei asked sideways.
Mu Chengfeng did not hide anything and replied truthfully: "I am Mu Chengfeng of the Mu family in Youzhou. This is Miss Bai Yuehan from Weiyang Palace."
"I have heard about the little tips in Xizhou for a long time. It turns out that they are just some sneaky tricks. The Zhuang and Mu families were once princes, but now they are no different from those people in the world."
Bai Yuehan heard this harshly, and as soon as his face showed displeasure, Mu Chengfeng rushed to say: "The Yang family, known as the eagle flying generals, is full of loyalty and integrity. It is true when we meet today, but it is narrow-minded. , the harsh words are really far from what I heard."
The corners of Yang Yunfei's mouth twitched slightly, and he turned around and said, "Do you think I made a mistake? The ancestors of the Zhuang family and the Mu family were all the founding heroes of our dynasty. They have been granted land and titles for many years, but what have they done? On the contrary, there are endless descendants who have committed crimes based on their family background. . Now they are collaborating with others in the world to fight privately. Don’t you feel that you have lost the face of your ancestors?"
"It is true that there are many dandies in the family, but General Yang's assertion that all the sons of the Twelve Marquises are as you said is not an overstatement. What's more, you did not understand what happened today, so you made sarcastic remarks. Do you feel ashamed of the praise given to the Yang family by the world?"
"A sharp tongue and a sharp tongue."
"Is everything black and white? The Mu family has indeed rarely done anything big in recent years. Not to mention the difficulty of disobeying the emperor's orders, but the Mu family has many years of experience in maintaining peace in many places in Youzhou, allowing the people to live and work in peace and contentment without suffering from bandits. Troubled, is this what the general said he did not do? Let alone doing evil, my Mu family dare not accept such a big label.
"I'm too lazy to argue with you. It seems like I'm passing by at the wrong time today."
"It's just the right time. If we hadn't predicted that the Yang family sergeant was passing by here, we might have fallen into Zhuang Xing's hands."
"Hahahahahaha, Mu Chengfeng, Mu Chengfeng, are you really good at saying that it was just a coincidence that I passed by today? Do you dare to say that you calculated it in advance?"
"Because there is an eagle in the sky."
"It is common to see eagles soaring in the sky in the north. How did you know that a sergeant from the Yang family was passing by here?"
"Eagles are not uncommon, but snow eagles are rare. And if it hadn't been domesticated for many years, its flying trajectory would not be like the one trained by the Yang family. Although I don't know who from the Yang family passed by here, but The Yang family's character has long been renowned, so I dare to bet that today's danger will be resolved by the Yang family."
After listening to Mu Chengfeng's words, Yang Yunfei began to seriously look at the person in front of him. He is about the same age as himself, his words are neither humble nor arrogant, and he has a heroic spirit in his eyebrows. This is indeed different from the prodigal sons among the powerful nobles he has seen.
"What? General Yang is going to get angry?" Mu Chengfeng added.
At this time, the contempt in Yang Yunfei's eyes had lessened. The man in front of him knew clearly about the Yang family, so he deliberately provoked him, not to mention in front of a group of soldiers. But he was not familiar with him. If he really angered himself, it would be like shooting himself in the foot. Thinking about it this way, he felt that Mu Chengfeng was a bit interesting.
Yang Yunfei changed his previous contempt, clasped his fists and said: "I was reckless before. It seems that Brother Mu is indeed not like other children of aristocratic families. I apologize to everyone for the offense I just caused."
Mu Chengfeng also hurriedly replied: "General Yang is quick to talk to others. This is no different from the Jianghu people who are willing to grudge and grudge. Moreover, today's incident is indeed taking advantage of General Yang. Chengfeng should also apologize to General Yang. I just hope There is nothing to delay the general."
"It's okay, I wonder where Brother Mu is going?"
"Ziwu City."
"We happen to be on the same road, why don't we give each other a lift?"
"It would be best if we don't delay the military situation."
"I originally left the camp due to personal matters, and because I was avoiding the marriage arrangements at home, and because I missed my brothers in the army, I planned to return to the camp early after finishing the matter. I have no other important matters, so don't worry."
