Two days later, Feiyun and others were talking in the hall. The guard at the door came to report that there was a girl named Magpie who wanted to see Feiyun. Feiyun was startled and thought to himself, didn't the magpie follow Hongjun back to his hometown? Why did they come to see me? Could it be that they encountered some trouble on the way? Feiyun immediately asked Liangchen to go out and invited the magpie in. After a while, the magpie followed Liangchen to the hall and greeted Wu Qiong and Feiyun.
Feiyun quickly asked: "Miss Magpie, didn't you go back to your hometown with Princess Jade? Why are you here?"
Magpie replied: "Reporting to Shaoxia Lin, we were attacked the day before yesterday. Uncle Duan felt it was necessary to let you know, so he asked me to come back and tell you."
Feiyun was naturally very worried when he heard that they were attacked and asked hurriedly: "Is anyone injured?"
Magpie said: "Only a few guards were slightly injured, and everyone else was safe." Feiyun breathed a sigh of relief and let Magpie explain the matter slowly.
After Duan Qing and others left the capital, they walked slowly. They traveled all the way, so they didn't walk much every day. Hongjun knew in her heart that after leaving this time, she would probably not come here again for a long time.
The journey was uneventful, everyone was talking and laughing, and the mood was very relaxed. Especially the magpies, larks, butterflies, dragonflies and other maidservants, they are even more happy when they think that they will be able to meet their families soon, and they can't wait to be home soon. Their parents were both servants of King Tu, so they had been living in the royal city with King Tu, so they naturally became Lord Hong's maids.
They left the hotel early yesterday morning. Not long after walking, when they came to the foot of a barren mountain, a group of people suddenly rushed out of the woods and blocked the way. Duan Qing, who was walking in front, quickly reined in his horse and shouted loudly: "Who are you? Why did you stop us?"
Duan Qing shouted, and the guards hurriedly escorted the three carriages. The magpie who was driving the carriage hurriedly pulled the carriage, and Hongjun in the carriage hurriedly came out and flew to Duan Qing's side. Bai Ling and Butterfly also jumped out of the carriage and came to Duan Qing's side. Duan Qing looked up and saw two familiar people among the crowd blocking the way, brothers and sisters Wang Hao and Wang Ruoxue from the Golden Sword Sect.
That day, after the Wang Hao brothers and sisters followed Li Gui and left the Wu family, they did not return directly to the Golden Sword Sect. Instead, they followed Li Gui and others back to Goulan Courtyard. Under Shuishui's command, the troupe quickly finished cleaning up and the group left Goulan Courtyard.
Ruoxue asked Li Gui to fulfill his promise and go with her to intercept Wu Mei and others the next day. Ruoxue secretly thought that if she had Li Gui's help, she wouldn't be afraid of not being able to defeat Wu Mei and the others. Li Zhen had promised Ruoxue before, and at the same time he also fell in love with Ruoxue, so he naturally agreed.
Li Gui then arranged for some people to protect Shuishui when he returned to Longmen's main altar in the south. He, Pei Shouyi and others took more than a dozen bodyguards to prepare for Ruoxue and Wang Hao to intercept and kill Wu Mei the next day.
But the next day, Wang Hao and Ruoxue arrived and asked Li Gui to follow them to capture Duan Qing and Hongjun alive. It turned out that Wang Hao and Ruoxue had just escaped from the Wang family in the morning, and they saw that their parents had been taken away by Princess Changping.
Ruoxue knew that if she wanted to rescue her parents, they would not be able to rescue them by force. She immediately thought of Duan Qing and Hong Jun who had just left the capital. She knew that these two people had a good relationship with Feiyun. If they could capture these two people alive, they might be able to get their parents back.
Ruoxue and Wang Hao discussed for a while and felt that this method was feasible, so they came to Li Gui for help. After hearing this, Li Gui naturally had no objection and immediately agreed. So Wang Hao, Ruoxue, Li Gui and others left the capital and chased Duan Qing and his party at high speed.
Within a few days, Ruoxue and others discovered the whereabouts of Duan Qing and his party. Ruoxue was about to take action, but was dissuaded by Li Gui. Li Gui thought that there were too many people here and it would be easy to attract officers and soldiers. So Li Gui took Ruoxue and others and ran to the foot of this barren mountain. He saw that there was no village in front of him and no store in the back, so it was a good place for an ambush. He asked everyone to ambush and wait for Duan Qing and others to arrive.
After a while, Duan Qing appeared in front with Hongjun and others. Li Gui screamed, and everyone rushed out of the woods and blocked Duan Qing's way. Duan Qing had met Wang Hao, but didn't know why he wanted to intercept him. However, Hongjun didn't know Wang Hao and Ruoxue, so naturally he felt even more strange.
Li Gui didn't take Duan Qing and Hongjun seriously. Before Duan Qing could ask questions, he shouted carelessly: "Who are Duan Qing and Peng Hongjun here?"
Duan Qing snorted coldly, stepped forward and said, "I am Duan Qing, who are you? Young Hero Wang Hao, Miss Ruoxue, why did you stop us?"
Wang Hao said: "Duan Qing, Peng Hongjun, we are here today to capture you alive! You will naturally know the reason later. I advise you to hold back and capture you, lest we take action!"
Hong Jun was furious and shouted: "Who are you? How dare you make such unreasonable demands. I tell you, if you have the ability, just come over!"
Ruoxue then whispered to Li Gui: "Master, I heard that these two people are good at martial arts. I'm afraid we brothers and sisters are no match. I want you to take action!" Ruoxue's voice was very low. She was afraid that Li Gui wouldn't hear, so she approached Li Gui. Gui speaks.
Li Gui felt a faint fragrance coming, and his mind suddenly swayed. He turned to stare at Ruoxue's beautiful face for a while and said, "Don't worry, Miss Ruoxue, she will be left to me. You brothers and sisters will deal with the others!"
As soon as Li Gui finished speaking, he jumped up, came to Hongjun, and shouted sternly: "You cheap servant, you are so arrogant. Let me teach you a lesson!"
As Li Gui said this, he pulled out his sword and slashed at Hongjun with all his strength. In order to show off his martial arts skills in front of Ruoxue, he used all his strength in the first move. The sword struck straight through with a sharp sound of breaking through the air.
Hong Jun snorted coldly and was about to draw his sword and step forward. Duan Qing was worried that Hongjun was no match, so he had already jumped up and stood in front of Hongjun. Duan Qing waved his sword to meet him and stopped Li Gui. There was a clang sound and the swords collided. They were both shaken and flipped backwards twice before falling to the ground.
Li Gui and Duan Qing were both secretly surprised that the other party's skill was as good as theirs. Li Gui tried his best to move, but he didn't take advantage. He felt that he had lost face. He roared angrily and attacked with his sword again, slashing Duan Qing directly. Duan Qing didn't want to fight him head-on, so he hurriedly dodged and counterattacked with his sword. The two immediately fought together, and it was difficult to tell the winner.
When Wang Hao saw that Hong Jun's appearance was no longer inferior to Ruoxue and Charming, he immediately salivated and rushed towards Hong Jun. Ruoxue also took action immediately, but was stopped by Magpie and Bai Ling.
This time things happened in a hurry, and Li Gui had no time to summon many disciples, so he only brought the twenty people who had been following him. There were not many people, but they were just the same as the twenty guards Duan Qing led. The martial arts of the Longmen disciples and these guards were not much different. If they were to kill each other immediately, it would be difficult to tell the winner.
Butterfly and Dragonfly's martial arts were far superior to these Longmen disciples. They saw that Duan Qing and Li Gui were tied, and Hong Jun and Wang Hao were also on par. Magpie and Bai Ling worked together to deal with Ruoxue, but they did not fall behind.
The guards were locked in a stalemate with each other, and it was difficult to tell the winner for a while. While fighting, the magpie said: "Butterfly, dragonfly, you help the guards first, and then go help the jade girl and the uncle."
Butterfly and Dragonfly quickly agreed, immediately drew their swords and rushed towards the Longmen disciples. Their martial arts skills were superior to these people, and they killed two of them in just a few moves. When the guards saw this, they became energetic and the situation suddenly turned around.
Li Gui's internal strength was originally slightly stronger than Duan Qing's, but in the recent battles, he was injured and has never recovered, and his internal strength has not been fully restored. However, his ability to counterattack was just the opposite. Duan Qing's internal strength was already outstanding. In addition, he had not experienced any major battles recently and had been practicing martial arts diligently.
After the two exchanged several moves, Duan Qing noticed it. Duan Qing immediately mobilized his inner strength and swung his sword fiercely, covering Li Gui in the shadow of the sword. Li Gui didn't expect the opponent to be so powerful, so he couldn't help but complain secretly, and could only try his best to support him. He expected others to come and help him after defeating his opponent.
Li Gui then regretted not bringing more people. If Pei Fu and Yan Ran were here alone, the situation would be very different. He didn't expect that other people's situation was worse than him.
When Wang Hao saw Hongjun's beauty, he couldn't help but tease her with words. But he didn't expect that Hongjun, a petite little beauty, had martial arts skills completely beyond his expectations. Hong Jun looks about the same age as Ruoxue, but his martial arts skills are not inferior to Ruoxue. But Hongjun's internal strength is superior to Ruoxue. Wang Hao stared closely at Hongjun's beautiful face, and with a wave of his hand, he raised his knife to attack Hongjun.
There was only a clang sound, and Wang Hao felt a pain in his arm. Wang Hao was shocked. When he looked carefully, he saw that his steel knife had been cut into two pieces. Wang Hao didn't expect that this beauty not only had deep internal strength, but also had a sword in her hand that could cut iron like clay. When he was in a daze, a strong palm wind came towards him. Wang Hao was horrified and tried to dodge, but was unable to do so.
There was only a "pop" sound, and Wang Hao was shaken and flew away. It turned out that Hongjun was annoyed that he was silent, so after drawing his sword, he struck hard with his left palm at the same time, intending to kill this traitor to vent his hatred.
After the move was successful, Hongjun immediately jumped up and chased after him. Wang Hao fell to the ground. He was dizzy and felt a sharp pain in his back. He knew he was injured and wanted to stand up. Hong Jun had already arrived and stabbed him immediately with his sword.
Wang Hao had no choice but to endure the severe pain and rolled on the spot, barely avoiding it. Hongjun then kicked him, hitting Wang Hao's injured back. Wang Hao immediately rolled on the ground for several feet before stopping.
Hong Jun stepped forward quickly and stabbed with his sword. Wang Hao was already covered in wounds at this time, but he still had the strength to dodge. He could only watch as Hong Jun's sword pierced his chest. Wang Hao screamed and died immediately!
These few times, Wang Hao was dead. Although Li Gui saw it, he was barely holding on and didn't dare to be distracted. Secondly, Wang Hao was not from Longmen, so Li Gui certainly would not risk his life to save him. When the two of them saw Wang Hao being killed so quickly and knew that they had met a master today, they were immediately frightened and wanted to escape. But the Duan Qing he faced was so powerful in martial arts that it couldn't be so easy to get away.
At this moment, Li Gui heard another cry, but it was a woman's voice. Li Gui took a peek and saw Ruoxue flying over. It turns out that Ruoxue was shocked when she saw Wang Hao being stabbed by Hongjun's sword just now. After all, they are brother and sister, so Ruoxue will not be as indifferent as Li Gui. Ruoxue immediately abandoned the magpie and jumped towards Wang Hao, wanting to see whether Wang Hao was dead or alive.
But how could magpies and butterflies let Ruoxue escape easily? They also followed closely. Ruoxue swung her sword in the air and struck Hongjun beside Wang Hao. Red Butterfly saw it from behind and hurriedly shouted: "Jade girl, be careful!"
Hongjun had actually seen Ruoxue rushing towards him, but he pretended not to know and deliberately led her to take action. Ruoxue's steel sword slashed at her, Hong Jun snorted coldly, swung his sword and slashed straight towards the steel sword. Suddenly Ruoxue's steel knife was cut into two pieces, and Ruoxue was knocked backwards by the shock.
The magpie arrived just in time and took the opportunity to make up for it. Ruoxue was in the air, unable to dodge, and was hit by the magpie's palm. Ruoxue screamed and flew backwards towards Li Gui. Li Gui was originally covetous of Ruoxue's beauty, so he naturally didn't want Ruoxue to die just like that.
Li Gui didn't care much at this time and hurriedly let go of Duan Qing, flew over and put his arms around Ruoxue, and jumped to the side. Duan Qing was reluctant to leave and followed him. Several nearby Longmen disciples saw this and hurriedly came to stop him.
By the time Duan Qing knocked these disciples to the ground, Li Gui and Ruoxue had already disappeared. It turns out that Li Gui understood that if he continued to be entangled, he might have to answer here. So he just took advantage of Duan Qing being entangled, picked up Ruoxue, and ran into the woods. As soon as they entered the woods, Li Gui hugged Ruoxue and flew onto his horse, then galloped away.
At the same time, several of the Longmen disciples were killed by butterflies and dragonflies. Then Hongjun and Bailing came to help, and all the twenty Longmen disciples were quickly killed. Only a few guards on Duan Qing's side were slightly injured, so it was considered a complete victory.
Duan Qing glanced at the killed Wang Hao and thought that this was the instigation of Wang Feng and his wife from the Golden Sword Sect, so he was very worried about Feiyun's safety. But after all, they had already left the capital far away, and it would take a lot of time to return. Hong Jun immediately said that he wanted to go back to the capital to have a look, but was dissuaded by Duan Qing.
Duan Qing told Hongjun not to worry, as a mere Golden Sword Sect could not do anything to Feiyun. Duan Qing thinks that not to mention that Feiyun himself is very powerful in martial arts. He also has masters like Tianxiang by his side, and his martial arts are not weak in good times and beautiful scenery.
What's more, Feiyun now has a special status and can get help from the Wu family and the palace at any time. Not to mention one Golden Sword Sect, even ten or eight such gangs would not be able to fight against the imperial court. After listening to Duan Qing's analysis, Hongjun felt relieved. With Feiyun's current status in the capital and his martial arts, no one dares to offend him. Duan Qing was still worried, so he asked Magpie to ride a fast horse back to the capital.
After hearing this, Feiyun couldn't help but hate Ruoxue even more. After she attacked the Wu family, she actually went to rob and kill Duan Qing and Hong Jun. Feiyun thought to himself that he would never be merciful when he met her in the future, this woman was too cruel! Mrs. Wu heard that Magpie was working hard all the way, so she was afraid that she would get tired, so she asked her to rest in the backyard. Magpie shook his head and said, "Since Young Master Lin is fine, I want to go back as soon as possible and report to Gu Yunu, so as not to worry her."
Feiyun didn't want Duan Qing to worry about him, so he didn't stop him. When he heard that one of the guards was injured, he asked Mrs. Wu to select ten guards with good martial arts skills and follow Magpie to escort them all the way south.
