Feiyun was secretly frightened and asked quickly: "Wang Shaoxia, did you find any problem? Is there an assassin in the town?"
Wang Hai said: "There are indeed many Jianghu figures in the town. It is difficult to determine whether they are assassins. I saw Xu Zhitang and others passing by here this afternoon. I guess they will ambush in front and wait for you on the street. I would like to remind you Please be careful."
Feiyun quickly thanked Wang Hai and said that he would leave Taoyuan Town early tomorrow morning and would be extra careful on the road. Wang Hai's words were brought to him and he left immediately.
Feiyun found Liangchen and the others. Seeing that they had just finished eating, he smiled slightly and asked, "You three girls, have you had enough shopping? Is it time to go back to the inn?"
The three of them nodded, got up and followed Feiyun towards the inn. When Liangchen didn't see Wang Hai, he asked, "Brother, why isn't Wang Hai with you?"
Feiyun told Liangchen that Wang Hai probably didn't want to see Mrs. Li. After all, there was still grudge between them and he couldn't force him. Besides, based on Feiyun's guess, Wang Hai and Mrs. Wang would be behind and behind his group and might help at any time.
The four of Feiyun returned to the Taoyuan Inn, and when they entered the side courtyard, they saw Meijing sparring with Furong. Feiyun hasn't seen her for a few days, but Fu Rong has been practicing well and her martial arts has improved greatly.
Seeing Feiyun and others coming back, Meimei quickly stopped and asked, "Brother, second sister, have you found anything unusual?" Meimei knew that Feiyun was definitely not just going to buy medicine, and would definitely take the opportunity to find out the news.
Feiyun shook his head and told her that there was nothing strange, he just met Wang Hai and talked for a while. Liangchen quickly took out the local snacks he bought and asked Meili and Lian'er to try the delicious food.
After dinner, Feiyun and everyone were chatting in the courtyard. Fu Rong continued to pester Mei Mei and asked her to practice martial arts with her. Mei Mei smiled slightly and did not refuse.
At this moment, Shangguan Wan'er came over and asked Feiyun and Liangchen to discuss something. Feiyun and the others came to Wu Zetian's room and saw that Wu Wei was also there. Knowing that Wu Zetian must have something important, they asked Wu Zetian what her orders were.
After Wu Zetian asked Feiyun and Liangchen to sit down, he said: "Shaoxia Lin, girl Liangchen, now Xu Zhitang and his gang have colluded with the group of masked men, and their strength has greatly increased. I'm worried that we don't have enough manpower to be our opponents, right?" Do you want the capital to send reinforcements?"
Feiyun waved his hand and said no. At this moment, with the full help of Tianxiang, Liu Qiong, and Jin Ding, as well as the three Lu Yings and the escorts from the escort agency, Feiyun's confidence has greatly increased, and he believes that he is fully capable of dealing with those assassins.
Besides, if we have to wait for the capital to send reinforcements, we will have to wait for a long time. Feiyun really didn't want to waste time and wanted to settle the matter as soon as possible. Feiyun suggested that Wu Zetian should not ask for reinforcements and set out early tomorrow morning.
Wu Zetian also guessed Feiyun's thoughts and had to reluctantly agree to Feiyun's suggestion. Liangchen saw that Wu Zetian was still worried, so he tried his best to comfort her. Wu Zetian attaches great importance to Liangchen and believes that she has the wisdom to deal with assassins.
Feiyun and Liangchen waited for Wu Zetian to feel relieved and then left. Little did they know that Wu Zetian, under Zhang Changzong's instigation, released flying pigeons and issued an order to send reinforcements to the capital.
Feiyun left Wu Zetian's room and remembered that Wang Hai mentioned that there were many people in the town, and was a little worried that someone was plotting evil intentions at night. Liangchen smiled slightly and reassured Feiyun that she had already made arrangements. Feiyun naturally trusted Liangchen very much and said nothing more.
At midnight, Feiyun entered the room and was about to go to bed when he heard movement on the roof. He quickly got up, came outside the house, and flew onto the roof. Feiyun raised his eyes and looked around, and sure enough he saw many figures moving vaguely under the moonlight.
Feiyun was about to yell out a scold when he saw several figures falling directly into the courtyard. Feiyun was shocked, Wu Zetian's room was not far away. This group of people were dressed in black and masked. They seemed to be the same group as those who attacked the inn last time.
Because this group of people all held a rather strange scimitar, Feiyun had only seen it in the hands of the last attacker. Apart from this, Feiyun had never seen such a scimitar before.
But Feiyun still didn't see where they were coming from, so he wanted to continue observing, hoping to tell from their movement and martial arts what sect these people were from. Feiyun didn't want to offend the famous sect in the world unintentionally.
After all, Wu Zetian had done too many evil things before and killed countless people. Although she killed mostly members of the Li Tang royal family and some important ministers loyal to the Tang Dynasty, it was inevitable that some figures in the world would be involved. Before Feiyun could think about it, he heard the sound of scolding.
Those people were all dressed in black, with black veils covering their faces, and holding swords in their hands. As soon as they landed in the courtyard, they heard a scolding voice: "What a madman, how dare you break into a house at night!" It turned out to be Zheng Yu, who had already been on duty at the right time.
As soon as these men in black landed, Zheng Yu, who was guarding the courtyard, had already seen them. Zheng Yu first shouted loudly to alarm everyone in the courtyard, then she held a sword in her hand and blocked the way of the man in black.
Before the man in black could reply, Liangchen and Meimei rushed out of the nearby room and stood beside Zheng Yu.
After the last attack on the inn, Liangchen has been very cautious. Every time he stayed in a place, Liangchen would arrange guards around Wu Zetian's house. Once there is any movement, everyone can come out to deal with it in time.
Meimei heard Zheng Yu's shout and asked Liangchen to guard Wu Zetian's door, and she jumped out. At the same time, Tianxiang, Jin Ding, and Liu Qiong also came to Liangchen, and Jin Ding asked Liangchen to go to the room to protect Wu Zetian.
Liangchen looked at it and said: "Sister, brother-in-law, these people hide their heads and show their tails. They are obviously not good people. You must be careful and don't show mercy!"
Liangchen did not enter the room, because she knew that Zhang Changzong must be with Wu Zetian at this time. Liangchen didn't want to see their ugly appearance, so he still stood guard at the door.
There were about twenty people in black clothes. One of them, a tall man, heard Liangchen's words and said angrily: "You bitch, you have such a loud tone, I want to show you what you are capable of!"
As the man spoke, he flew up and struck Liangchen with the steel knife in his hand. Before Liangchen could react, Tianxiang snorted coldly, stepped forward first, and waved his sword to greet him.
At the same time, other men in black clothes showed their swords and attacked Jin Ding and his wife. Yun Jinding and his wife hurriedly raised their swords and fought on the left and right against the besieging men in black. Liangchen didn't dare to leave the door, he just fought back those who rushed towards him.
Besides, the swords of Tianxiang and the man in black collided, with a clanging sound and sparks flying everywhere. Tianxiang took several steps back and then stood firm. The man in black only shook his head.
Tianxiang was shocked, knowing that this person was profound and that he was no match. But she knew that with the power of the sword and her exquisite swordsmanship, she would be able to entangle the opponent for a while.
By then, Feiyun, Wu Wei and others have already arrived, and the escorts and guards living in the front yard will soon arrive, and these men in black will be besieged.
However, when Tianxiang glanced at it, she saw that the opponent's steel knife seemed to be unscathed, and she was dissatisfied and surprised. After thinking for a moment, she realized that his steel sword must also be a precious sword.
Tianxiang did not dare to be careless and hurriedly concentrated on the battle. However, the man in black also seemed surprised to see that he could neither knock Fei Tianxiang's sword nor cut off the sword.
When the man in black came again brandishing his sword, he was not as arrogant as before. The two of them fought each other with swords and swords. Although Tianxiang's skills were slightly weaker, her movements were flexible and her swordsmanship was weird and fantastic. The man in black couldn't do anything to her for a while.
At this time, Feiyun has arrived. Seeing that there were many people in black, he was worried that Tianxiang would be defeated, so he went to help, but he saw Wu Wei and Wu Yuan coming with their guards in the front yard.
Duan Wuwei shouted sternly: "What kind of monster dares to come here and cause mischief!"
The masked men in black didn't reply. They seemed to know that Wu Wei was not weak in martial arts. Immediately, there were two men who looked like leaders and led people to greet Wu Wei and others.
The other leader was highly skilled in martial arts and used enough strength to force Liu Qiong back with one palm. Then he jumped up and headed straight for the bedroom. Seeing that the situation was critical, Feiyun had no time to rush over, so he had to fold his fan and wave, and immediately several silver needles flew straight towards the man in black.
The man in black had so much inner strength that he actually heard the sound of thin silver needles piercing the air. The other person was in the air and could not dodge, so he had to swing his sword fiercely and knock down the silver needle. As a result, he naturally could only land immediately instead of jumping to the door of the room.
Feiyun took advantage of this opportunity and arrived at the door. He waved his folding fan and shouted: "Where does this rat come from? How dare you be so presumptuous!"
The man in black was about to take a step forward, but was stopped by Feiyun, who immediately roared: "Little thief, was it you who set off the hidden weapon just now? You attacked in secret, and you still have the nerve to curse!"
Feiyun heard that this person seemed to have a northern accent, so he smiled slightly and said: "Why am I so shameless? I think you are really shameless when you are covered in black gauze. As for sneak attacks in secret, I am just using him to attack others." Tao, it's just a gift to others! In comparison, you are really shameless. If you have the guts, take off the fig leaf and let me admire your horse face!"
The man was stunned for a moment, and then shouted angrily: "You little thief, stop using your words, I will take your life, see if you can stop talking!" After saying that, he raised his right hand and struck straight with the sword.
When the man was angry, he had used up all his inner strength with this move. Naturally, he hoped to hit it with one blow, even if he could not kill Feiyun under the sword. He thought that at least he could force Feiyun to dodge, and then he could drive in and kill the people inside.
Feiyun saw the sword coming towards him with a strong air flow, and knew that the opponent's internal strength was powerful and not inferior to his own. Normally, Feiyun would not have resorted to such a move.
But now Wu Zetian is behind him, and once Feiyun gets out of the way, the man in black will definitely take the opportunity to break in. When such a master enters the room, Wu Zetian will definitely not be able to escape.
To be honest, Wu Zetian's life was not important to Feiyun. But after all, Feiyun promised his master that even if he risked his life, he would ensure Wu Zetian's safety. Therefore, Feiyun did not avoid or give way, but used Hunyuan's internal energy to greet him with his fan.
Only a clang was heard, and the fans and swords collided with each other, making a muffled sound. The powerful rebound force caused both of them to take a few steps back, but Feiyun took one more step back.
